With respect to the federal case pending, the Law Department had asked for an extension of twenty days in order to facilitate the request which will be considered this evening. A request has been made that the plaintiff dismiss the 2506 appeal, which is the appeal from the Board of Zoning Appeals, because the Law Department ruled that submittal to the BZA was not necessary under existing law. 2) The Law Department had asked the attorney for Mr. Dooling (Dooling vs. the City of North Olmsted) to dismiss the case because he had filed outside of the Statute of Limitations. The attorney did not dismiss the case, and the Law Department has filed a motion for summary judgment because of the Statute of Limitations and because of the city's immunity. 3) The firefighters' union has filed an unfair labor practice against the city because the Fire Chief ordered the firefighters to wear uniforms when they attend training sessions. ~. ,~.. r ~.. .
