Council Minutes of 7--19-77 -3- and are awaiting further recom®endations: the Police have raque~sted sc~e type of legislation in Which to enforce as there are many cars driving 3 or 4 blocks at a time down the center lane; 4) the No Turn on Red Sign at Great Northern & Lorain which was put up for a 30 day temporary stay: Have had reasonably good c t on it being there: Mr. Beaty moved to amend the Traffic Control Map to install a No Right Turn On Red permanently at Great Northern Blvd. and Lorain Rd. motion seconded by Mrs. Sharpe. Affirmative vote: Beaty, Boehmer, Fairfield, Beringer, Sharpe, Wilamosky. Motion carried. 5) the intersection of Columbia Rd. & Brookpark Rd.: have a request from the Police to possibly pave the berm for northbound traffic on Coluabia as it approaches Brookpark to make a lane which would handle thru traffic and right turn traffic. There is a berm that is being used sad the Police De~-rtmant has requested that it be paved and make a temporary turn lane out of it until 1480 does coast thru and see what effect it has on Colu~ia. The Committee recommends this and will have to find out the cost involved; 6) discussed same problem at Glague ~ Lorain Rds. Mr. Beaty understands the south- bound traffic has bees settled with the County and Committee is waiting €or a report from the Safety Director on northbound traffic to see if there is enough area of berm there that could be paved and m~ a right turn lane; 7) Ord. No. 77-132 and 77-133 are on second reading tonight and deals with raising the salaries and wages of the bus line a~rployees. It is in accord with the arrange- ment we have worked aut with RTA and goes along with same. This is to go into effect August 1st and because of Council vacation will request suspension of rule requiring three separate readings tonight. Mr. Beaty discussed a $500. longevity payment which could be made to employees in Decaiber of this year. The bus drivers in the RTA Syates in Gleveland are receiving it. 'Phis is not included in the legislation and Mr. Beaty explained reasons why the Co~i.ttee does not recoawend adding it into the ordinance: RTA made .this a ne~tiating matter - the drivers gays up their social security in order to receive this longevity. The Committee did not feel that our drivers had given this up. Mrs. Beringer referred to Mr. Beaty's coament on the southbound lane at Claque and working with the County: Mrs. SaYi~rger stated that is too far in the future and it was agreed by the Service Director that we would try and put a t~aportry pavement or berm there so that people could turn right. The County's proposal is far in the future when 1480 is eventually ccro~leted and Claque Rd. is widened to four lanes. For the City to enter into an agreement at this time would be far too costly and requested the Safety Director to give his opinion an turning there - cars do pull up now in ruts and turn and if asphalt could be put there it would be more feasible. Mr. Beaty requested Safety Director Koharik to check both northbound and southbound at that point. Mr. Boehmer, Chairman antra Governmental Relations ~ Legislation Committee and Public Safety, Health & Welfare Committee, reported Committee met and discussed a D1 liquor permit application to Michael 3. Santosousso, dba Ssntos, 26351 Great Northern Shopping Center. Cotimittae objects to this application because Santos has not moved into the Shopping Center and Committee feels they should actually take over the building before a license is issued: Mr. Boehmer moved Council object to the application for a D1 permit to Michael J. Santosousso, dba Santos, 26361 Great Northern Shopping Center, seconded by Mr. Fairfield. Affirmative vote: Beaty, Boehmer, Fairfield, Beringer, Sharpe, wilamosky. Motion carried.
