Council Minutes of 6/3/86 _3_ Mayor Petrigac commented that Fairview's Mayor Gaul has invited North Olmsted, and in all probability other communities, to attend a meeting next week to dis- cuss the entire insurance issue and the course of action that might be taken. President Woerpel stated ..that he will certainly sit down with the Chairman of the Finance Committee to discuss the formation. of a separate committee to look at this spec if is insurance and liability issue. In the absence of Finance Director Boyle, Clerk of Council read the following report: 1) Director Boyle is in Los Angeles, California, attending the National Conference of Government Finance Officers' Association, at no cost to the City of North Olmsted. He will return next week and is in contact with the Finance Department on a daily basis. 2) The issuance of $100,000 notes, Ordinance No. 86-47, is merely part of the financing of the Lorain Road East Project undertaken by the Ohio Department of Transportation in 1984. The original note of $205,000 was reduced to $120,000 in 1985 and will be further reduced, via interest earnings and savings but not taxes., by $20,000 with the passage of this ordinance. It is not mandatory that the ordinance be passed tonight. 3) Apparently during the 1960's and 1970's, the city closed some area bank accounts without withdrawing all funds. Since earlier this year, Finance Director has been actively engaged in documenting the city's claim to this money. Last week, received the first check for $1,146.18 for what appears to be an unrecorded deposit and dormant checks of 1961 and 1962. 4) With respect to the Industrial Development Bonds issued by West Shore Cable TV some time ago, Society National Bank has extended the letter of credit to July 8, 1987. Mr. Lackey, Chairman Intra-Governmental Relations and Legislation Committee re- ported: l) Committee-met on Tuesday, May 27th, with all members present. Committee discussed Ordinance No. 86-43 dealing with the Landmarks Commission, amending Section 165.03 to create a new Section 165.06 entitled, "Designation of Landmarks Districts". Per request of Landmarks. Commission, an amendment to Section 165.06, Subheading (a), Number I1, was made to change its present reading to the following: "Landmarks Commission shall recognize the official Landmarks District". Present reading states "Landmarks Commission shall present the official Landmarks District plaque". The Landmarks Commission is asking for a little latitude. so a district can be recognized by other means than just a plaque - it might have a stone or tree, or sign, or some other identification. Committee recommends adoption of Ordinance No. 86-43, as amended. 2) Committee then discussed adoption of Resolution No. 86-48, opposing Toledo Edison's application for permission to bury radioactive sludge on its Davis- Besse Nuclear Plant site. A number of local groups have expressed concern about the possibility of ground water contamination as well as flooding of .the site which would lead to contamination of Lake Erie. Committee recommends adoption of Resolution No. 86-48 this evening and will ask for suspension of rule re- quiring three readings.
