Mr. Petre strongly reconraendaed`that Council address the State because of the fact that North Opted basica~• a temporary holding facility where people are held for 72 hours or less. Feels Council should object to certain sections -not totally - because if the City were to comely totally with this law, it would cost in the area of $200,040.

Mr. Beaty stroagl.y objects, especially with President Carter's ?X increases, to raising a range of a new position by 25%. Mr. Logan said it is setting a range and not setting a salary; since it is on first reading tonight would prefer to discuss it at a later time - when it comes up on second or third reading. Pir. Beaty reported that he was approached by a member of the audience after last Council Meeting who has attended other Council l~leetings - in particular Berea - where, when legislation is on third reading, the audience has a chance to participate and have-some .input into the particular legislation which is being voted on on third reading. Suggested that we do the same. Mr. Beaty does not necessarily agree but said he would bring it up and if agpropriate would ask that. one of the Committees discuss it. President Limpert said he also had talked to this individual and tried to explain our procedure and the reason for it, but if Mr. Beaty would like to have the Legislative Committee take it under consideration as far as changing the rules, he would have no objection. Thinks we should take a very close look at this as to what it *.aill mean to our Council, procedures.
