Present were committee members Musial, McKay and Lind; Council members Limpert, O'Grady and Nashar; Safety Director Kasler; P & A Director Wilamosky; Finance Director Burns. The following items were discussed: a. The Cablevision lease agreement. Some of the details were presented, but we are still waiting for information to come back from Cablevision. The legislation will be held in committee. b. Ordinance 97-72 which has to do with the State Issue 2 Infrastructure Bond Program. There was little discussion as the funds are in the form of interest free loans and/or cost free funds. The committee recommended approval. c. Ordinances 97-74 and 97-75 which have to do with the Economic Development Fund and the sharing of revenues from the AT&T antenna. We were waiting for some information which has now been received. The committee will take some time to digest this information and another meeting will be held in the near future. Finance Director Burns noted that Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority has also provided some of the engineering for the removal of the storage tanks. Mr. Nashar, Chairperson of the Public Safety, Health and Welfare Committee: 1) The city Traffic Engineer, Larry Griffith, has responded to two no parking issues on Cambridge Drive and W. 231 Street. The first issue concerned Cambridge Drive between Christman Drive and Surrey Drive. Mr. Griffith noted that Cambridge Drive is a 25 mile an hour residential street serving connectors between Christman, Surrey and Brighton Drives. Parking is currently prohibited on the north side, which is the fire hydrant side. The Police Department has no record of accident problems in this area nor in any other of the approximately 20 areas where similar situations exist. Mr. Griffith concluded that he saw no need for additional parking restrictions for safety reasons on the south side of Cambridge Drive. The second no parking request on W. 231 Street was brought to the committee by Councilman O'Grady. Mr. Griffith and Assistant Fire Chief Bill Smith investigated this request. They noted that W. 231 is an uncurbed asphalt street, 19 feet wide, with drainage ditches on both sides. Parking is currently prohibited on the west side, which is the fire hydrant side. There are 9 no parking signs along the west side of the street. Parking on one side of the street could possibly slow the response time for the Fire 5
