Council Minutes of 9/21/99 • Resolution 99-122, which is the tax budget. This adopts the budget for the City of North Olmsted for the year beginning January 1, 2000. This resolution shows the need to assess real estate taxes, places property taxes currently at 5%, but the actual rate will most probably fall short of that. After discussion, the committee again unanimously recommended approval of Resolution 99-122, and that resolution was subsequently passed at a special meeting of Council. 2) The Finance Committee met again earlier this evening. This was a joint meeting of both the Finance and Recreation Committees. Present from the Finance Committee were Council members O'Grady, Kasler and Limpert. From the Recreation Committee, Kasler, Miller and Limpert. Also present were Council member McKay; Mayor Musial; the directors of Finance, Safety and Service; Marty Young, manager of Springvale. Agenda items were: • Ordinance 99-124, which deals with ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) compliance. This speaks to the issue of putting ADA compliant rest rooms at the Springvale golf facility, specifically as attached to Springvale Ballroom. These facilities would be part of a new structure attached to the existing ballroom. Part of the cost for this structure would be absorbed by an award from the Community Development Block Grant fund of $96,000. Our current estimates show that the total cost anticipated for the construction of the attached building and the ADA facilities would be on the order of $211,000, of which $96,000 is from the county funds. • Ordinance 99-133 and Resolution 99-134. Both of these deal with the parking lot at Springvale. Presently we have an engineering estimate from Hammontree with the cost of $8,800. The committee unanimously recommended approval of Ordinance 99-124, Ordinance 99-133 and Resolution 99-134 and recommended passage under suspension of the rule with regard to Ordinances 99-124 and 99-133. Mr. Limpert, chairperson of Intra-Governmental Relations and Legislation; Long-Range Planning Committee: 1) The committee met on September 15. Present were committee members Nashar, Gareau and Limpert; Council member Miller; Service Director Bohlmann; City Engineer Deichmann. The committee discussed: • Resolution 99-128, which is a resolution authorizing the Mayor to submit and seek financial assistance from the state Issue 2 funds for infrastructure programs. The city will request funding on three projects: Clague Road/Lorain Road intersection widening, a $1,100,000 project; Lorain Road rehabilitation (paving, curbing and storm sewers) from the west corporation line to the east corporation line, a $10,990,000 project; Butternut Ridge rehabilitation, a $5,000,0000 project. These projects would be a 90%-10% split with the state picking up 90%. It would very doubtful that the city would receive more than one project. So, with our 10%, it would be very doable. The committee unanimously recommended approval. • A joint discussion with the BZD Committee on Ordinance 99-126, which will be reported on by BZD chairperson Gareau. 5 _. I
