Council Minutes of 4/15/86 _4_ Mr. Wilamosky, Chairman Finance Committee reported: 1) Committee met on April 14th with all members present as well as Mayor, Law Director, Finance Director and Councilman McKay. Committee discussed Ordinance No. 86-28, creating a Petty Cash Fund in the amount of $200 for the Division of Aging. Current legislation pro- vides for an amount of $200 in a Petty Cash Fund that was originally created for the purpose of funding the Hot Lunch Program. Committee objects to Ordinance No. 86-28 since there is an existing Petty Cash Fund. Committee feels that the funds from the original Petty Cash Fund were used for Senior Center purposes and the receipts were misplaced or lost. Would like the Finance Director to consider those funds to have been expended from the original, existing Petty Cash Fund, in the amount of $200, for Senior Center purposes although some of it may have been used for the Hot Lunch Program or something else. Feels that the Administrator of the Division of Aging now has a little better understanding of how the Petty Cash Fund should operate with respect to the handling of receipts and disbursement. Mr. Wilamosky moved that the Finance Director accept the absent $200 as an expense of the Hot Lunch Program and then reimburse the Petty Cash Fund in the amount of $200, second by Mr. McKay, unanimously approved. 2) Committee discussed Ordinance No. 86-27, a transfer of $7,880 from the Grant and Endowment Fund to the Senior Center Fund. Committee would like to retain this legislation in committee until it can meet with the Senior Center Advisory Board. Such a meeting will be scheduled for Wednesday, April 23rd, at 7:30 P.M. Therefore, Mr. Wilamosky moved to remove Ordinance No. 86-27 from the agenda, hold in committee, replace it on the agenda for the council meeting of May 7, 1986, second by Mr. Tallon, unanimously approved. 3) Committee also discussed a Civil Service line item in the area of wages which Mrs. Pat Bahas brought up and was concerned that there was an underappropriation for fiscal 1986. Committee will look into this and will be coming to council to make some adjustment in that line item to provide for correction based on the history of expenditure and current requirements of that office. President Woerpel announced that the Memorial Committee will be chaired by Mr. Ron Tallon, Chairman Recreation, Public Parks and Buildings Committee; Councilman O'Grady has agreed to serve on this committee also; additional members will be appointed shortly so as to be prepared for Memorial Day ceremonies. Audience participation: Mrs. Lois DeBrodt, 23141 Stoneybrook Drive, speaking as President of North Olmsted Community Council, invited everyone to attend the Citizen of the Year Award Dinner on Thursday, April 24th, at the North Olmsted Party Center; tickets are $12.50. Mr. Tom Stuckart, 4449 Birch Circle, addressed the numerous problems he has experienced in the last three years in attempting to get Shore West Builders to correct serious water problems at his home and attempting to get the North Olmsted Building Department to enforce the city's building codes. He has a signed guarantee from the builder, Shore West, to take care of any water problems. His basement stairs have been ripped out for three years; holes have been bored in his walls; dirt has been piled in his neighbor's yard; downspouts have been dis- connected; interior drain tiles have been installed three times; storm line was dug up and found to be broken; drain line did not have any slag, etc. Would like the Building Commissioner to enforce the city codes and make the builder comply with them. Law Director Gareau suggested that if the administration finds there are code violations which have not been time~ty corrected, the Building Department can revoke the contractor's permit; the matter will be heard before the Board of Building Code of Appeals to see whether or not the city should, in fact, revoke the permit so the contractor cannot build in this city until such time as those code violations are corrected. Meeting will be scheduled between Mayor, Building Commissioner and Mr. Stuckart to further discuss this issue.
