The administration agreed to re- place, in Section 6.6, language indicating that an Evidence Technician, after completion of schooling, would receive Evidence Technician's pay. Additionally, the proposal calls for a 4.57 wage increase for three consecutive years; provides for two additional holidays,. and when a holiday is worked, the officer will be paid time and a half and then will have a holiday off at a future date; de- tective's pay will increase $100 per year - going to $600, $700 and $800; uniform allowance will go to $525, $550 and $575 in the next three years; hospitalization program will be open for re-negotiations later in 1989. Committee has no objection to Ordinance No. 89-4 covering police negotiations. 2) Committee also met on February 1st with Director Noble, the Mayor and Council- man Tallon in attendance; Ordinance No. 89-2, covering fees for grave openings, was discussed. Existing ordinance does not provide for burial of ashes; Ordin- ance No. 89-2 will set up fees that cover the city's cost for such a service. .Committee has no objection. 3) Finance Committee also discussed Ordinance No. 89-5 covering the sale of sur- plus property at 5946 Barton Road - a good sized lot covering 206.7 feet of frontage; rear yard is 232 feet, by 231 feet north and 230 feet south. Committee discussed subdividing the property for future development or possibly ingress and egress to the soccer area with room for ditch maintenance. Will retain Ordinance No. 89-5 in committee for future discussion and final decision. 4) Committee also discussed Ordinance No. 89-6, which provides for the hiring of an engineering firm to provide estimates of cost for the preparation of a compre- hensive zoning ordinance dealing with establishment of impact fees. Councilman Wilamosky has written to the Ohio Municipal League requesting names of any cities in Ohio who currently have such fees. Mayor Petrigac indicated that she also has some documentation with regard to impact fees. This legislation will also be looked at further and will be retained in committee, pending receipt of fur- ther information from the Ohio Municipal League. 5) Ordinance No. 89-7 was discussed; this ordinance provides for an appropria- tion to cover appraisal costs for the Barton Road and Butternut .Ridge Road properties. Since the Butternut Ridge Road property is not as clearcut as the Barton Road .property, would recommend that the ordinance be amended as follows: Section 1, General Fund, to read "Appraisal of the Barton Road Property, Current -0-, Increase $500, Revised $500", second by Mr. O'Grady, unanimously approved. 6) The last item discussed by the Finance Committee was Ordinance No. 89-8 which establishes compensation to be paid to all hourly employees of the North Olmsted Municipal Bus Line; committee has no objections and will request suspension of rule requiring three readings on this legislation. Mr. Tallon, Chairman Building, Zoning and Development Committee reported: 1) BZD Meeting of January 25th was called to order at 7:30 P.M. with Councilmen O'Grady, Bohlmann and Tallon in attendance as well as Building Commissioner Conway. The following requests were discussed: a. McDonald's Restaurant, 27322 Lorain Road, revised proposal to construct new building and revised site plan. Planning Commission and ARB have requested a ground sign as well as esthetic lighting of the roof beams. McDonald's was totally uncooperative on the issue of the sign; Building Commissioner ruled that the beam lighting was not part of signage and therefore did not fall under the restrictions. Mr. Morgan, Planning Co~nission member, noted that builders are using lighting as an integral part of the design; however North Olmsted has no ordinance covering this at the present time. Mr. Tallon will be submitting some sample legislation to the Law Department for approval and also to the City Planner for his input. In the meantime, Mr. Tallon moved council approve the McDonald's Restaurant as above stated„second by Mr. Bohlmann.
