Council Minutes of 4/4/89 -2- 8) The administration has scheduled a tornado drill for April; the date and time is to be announced when employees hear the siren. 9) Senior Center Auction will be held on April 22nd. This would be a good opportunity for candidates to get their names out by donating something to the Senior Center. Law Director Gareau reported: 1) The Kostrek Appeal has been scheduled for oral argument in the Eighth Appellate District tomorrow morning. 2) Has received notice from the Northern Ohio Benevolent Association that they have received a sufficient number of signed cards to enable them to take over the representation of the clerks and dispatchers in the Police Department rather than AFSCME. Will follow this to determine whether or not the State Employees' Relations Board certifies them as a collective bargaining unit. 3) City has had an administrative appeal in the Court of Common Pleas and in the Court of Appeals; it is now in the Supreme Court and has been appealed. This is the Citrus Trust Case; Law Director is in the process of preparing a brief in opposition, certifying that case. Finance Director Boyle reported: 1) Ohio Citizens Bank closed the city's mortgage revenue accounts two weeks ago where money had been deposited since the Wastewater Treatment Plant had been initially constructed back in the 60's. Two coupons, one for $20 and one for $21.25, were returned to the city since they had never been submitted for payment. Because it is such a low amount, and the city is liable for those payments if the people should ever present them, Finance Director Boyle does not feel the need to restrict any of the fund balances and will just accept them as cash. In the future, if the coupons are presented, the Sewer Revenue Fund will pay the $41.25 - an amount that should not cause any problem. Would like this information noted in the minutes - the city has received the coupons and acknowledges its liability for them. 2) In reviewing the permanent appropriation ordinance, Mr. Wendell and Mr. Noble discovered an error with respect to trees in the Service Department. Finance Director believes the appropriation had gone to a different account. W ill have an ordinance covering the transfer of the money to the proper accounts on the agenda for the next council meeting.
