Mayor Boyle reported: 1) Requested Mrs. Joan Bryan to come to the front of the chambers to receive a proclamation honoring her for being selected as a recipient of the "Great American Teacher's Award". Mrs. Bryan is a teacher at St. Mark's School on Montrose Avenue. 2) Environmental Protection Agency has extended the tap-in ban for another sixty days; this is the second extension they have given the city. Feels the extensions are a way of telling the administration that it is living up to the schedules and EPA is satisfied with the progress being made. Part of all this is the Fairview Park contract, which has been agreed to, and is being pre- sented to council for consideration this evening and is covered under Ordin- ance No. 90-35. 3) Weather permitting, will be placing. guard rails at the hazardous northern end of Columbia Road. By May, will have inserted speed stripes, more signage and fluorescent striping, which is all the, city can do right now. The admin- istration is not going to wait for Westlake to finalize their plans; feels the safety conditions there need to be addressed immediately. 4) Has scheduled a Special Council Meeting for Wednesday, March 28th, at 7:30 P.M. The agenda will consist of the appropriation ordinance, No. 90-18, the Fairview Sewer Service Agreement, No. 90-35, a $1,300,000 note ordinance covering the Recreation Complex and a $500,000 note ordinance covering equipment for the Service Department. 5) Repairs covering Gessner, Canterbury, the Lorain Road Water Line and Bradley Road Culvert are on tonight's agenda, partially funded by North Olmsted but mostly funded by the County. 6) Expressed his thanks and appreciation to all the councilmen who attended most of the Finance Committee Meetings and were so helpful in giving input for the final appropriation ordinance. Feels good ground work was laid and the city has a valuable blueprint for 1990.
