Council Minutes of 5/21/85 -5- Letters and communications: ,~ Clerk of Council read a communication from Mrs. Madeline Brookshire, 5140 Hampton Drive, suggesting that cable television revenues be specifically earmarked far a particular project each year to demonstrate where this money is being spent and how cable television is contributing to the betterment of the community. For 1986, would like the revenues earmarked to improve the appearance and safety of the exterior building, grounds and parking areas at the Recreation Complex site. Before moving into audience participation, President Boehmer introduced Mrs. Alice Holmok, 1985 Citizen of the Year of North Olmsted; members of the audience as well as council recognized Mrs. Holmok. Audience participation: Mrs. Francine Nyland, 5609 Fitch Road, complained of a neighbor at 5541 Fitch Road using a dirt bike without a muffler; when she has called the police, she has been told they can do nothing. Mrs. Saringer advised that the city does have a noise ordinance under which they could be monitored and possibly charged. Mayor Swietyni- owsky asked Mrs. Nyland to contact his office when this occurs; someone will be sent to monitor the level and they will proceed from there. Mr. James Logan, 25415 Clubside Drive, asked if the city has completed any sort of analysis of the condition of streets. Mayor advised about 6, 7, or 8 years ago an analysis was originally completed; it is reviewed on a yearly basis. Streets are listed and graded, ten being the worst, one being the best. Mr. Logan asked Councilman Wilamosky if the Streets and Drainage had this list. Mr. Wilamosky stated that it does. Committee has also been discussing moving ahead with a street maintenance/street management program done by professionals. Mr. Logan asked if the present list of streets in the worst shape would be termed a "comprehensive analysis" of city streets. Mr. Wilamosky stated that it is comprehensive to a degree, certainly not as comprehensive as one prepared under a contract with a street management consulting firm. City has depended on the expertise of the service and engineering departments for surveys and input. Although Mr. Logan had additional questions, the five minute time limit had expired and he could not continue. Mrs. Lois DeBrodt, 23141 Stoneybrook Drive, stated that her question had already been answered by the Mayor, i.e. the flags will be up for Memorial Day and will be up for the Homecoming parade, from the shopping center to the parade grounds.
