Council Minutes of 2-17-76 -2- of variances - special permits would have to be granted under variances and/or zoning would have to take place. Mr. West moved Council go on record as wanting to pursue elderly housing for the City of North Olmsted, seconded by Mr. Beaty. Mr. Coggin comaanted he saw this briefly at B.Z.bD. Goamittse meeting the other evening and the question in his miser is not as much the fact that it is elderly housing but he r rs the acreage to be bigger. This is 3 acres now - the same number of suites was for the larger acreage. Mr. Beaty stated he believes in the original plan it did include an area directly to the north. Mr. West and Mayor explained what tranapire~. Mr. Coggin state if the motion is just to indicate our intentions for elderly housing he would have no objection. Mr. Coggin verified the only thing we axe doing with the etotion is the intent to have elderly housing period; and this is not to imply in any~-ay that this project is acceptable. Roll Call an Motion: Affiraative vote: Beaty, Boeltt:er, Coggin, Saringer, Sharpe, West. Motion carried. 3) Congress has passed the Public Works Bill; the President has vetoed it, but it is predicted that it will be coring out of Congress over his veto. In order to take advantage of this, ur~Isrstands we have to be able to get under construction in 90 days. Last Fall Mrs. Sharpe introduced a resolution authorising applying for funds for a service garage facility under this bill. Inas~ch as it is becoming closer to being a reality thinks that Council should undertake several steps: (a) consider location - there is city owned land at Barton ~ Breadley RdB. or it is possible there may be fuswls available for acquiring a new site; but again it has got to be under construction in 90 days. .This is his understanding. (b) thinks we should hire stt azchitect to stake the preliminary steps ready to move. Koster made a study in 1972-1973 on a service garage facility so that he is familiar with what is needed and ws do have that report. Would Like to recom~tend that we contact him with idea in mind that we be ready to make emergency appro- priations to hire him to start work on this project in order to have the construc- tion started in 90 days. Feels this should be considered and watching closely what is going on in Congress to see if an ~eergency meeting is needed to pass legislation to get started on this; 4) met with Mr. Wayne Kuhn of MacDonald & Co. on February 9, 1976, to discuss situation in Sewer Revenue Fund regarding Ord. No. 75-204 which went into effect February 1, 1976, increasing the sewer rate by SOS per thousand cubic feet. He indicated the fund balances do show that far at least a 50C increase and possibly more. These studies are being finalized and will be reported on in the future; 5) recognised Chief of Police Taylor in avtdience. Chief Taylor called the Mayor today and informed the Mayor that he had received a letter from the State of Ohio, Department of Liquor Central, regtucding the renewal application for liquor permits at the Black Lite, 31535 Lorain Rd. Mayor read letter which stated the application is refused and rejected upon the basis of the Department's findings set forth: The North Olmsted Police Depart~tt formally objected to the renewal of the permits on the grounds that the es~loyses of the permit premises are engaged 1n the sale of narcotics, or were othex+Kise uaed~irabls individuals to be on a permit presses and submitted information, dataiisd in the letter, in support of their objections. In light of these facts the Dspaxtsmnt,finds that the application corporation is no longer a proper entity to exercise permit privileges. Mayor stated it brings good news to him and is aura that the Police Department's work will be a little easier now; 6) submitted proposed expenditures for the City for 1976 to Council.
