Council Minutes of 10/20/87 -.5- John Rumancik, 4079 Root Road, asked if he could use his truck to transport leaves to the Barton and Bradley Road dump; Mayor stated she did not know of any reason why he could not; will check it out and call to let him know if it is not permitted. Mr. Rumancik feels the city is receiving more tax money now and yet the. services are going down. Mr. Wilamosky pointed out that for every $1,000 of property tax, the school system receives close to $700; the balance is divided between the City of North Olmsted and Cuyahoga County; feels the city has done a reasonably good job in providing the level of service it has on only 16~ of every tax dollar paid ~.n real estate taxes. Mr. Rumancik pointed out that branches must now be cut in four foot lengths in order to be collected; the city used to come around and chip them. He also complained that BFI does not collect large items such as .hot water tanks on a regular basis; they pass up such items and they sit on the lawn. President Saringer stated that BFI is to pick up everything, including large items; if they do not, the city should be notified by a phone call to the Service Department. Mr. Rumancik stated. that Root Road has never been striped or lined, nor do the police patrol this area; also, the snow plows do not plow Root Road at the north end; they make a turn off at Byron and don't come up that far. The lighting on Lorain. Road, for Great Northern Boulevard and Lorain, does not allow the residents of Root Road to make a left-hand turn going east. A petition was presented to council but nothing has been done. Mayor agreed that this is an extremely bad area and is part of the Traffic Survey.
