Council Minutes of June 15, 1999 Mr. Gareau reported for Mr. Limpert, chairperson of the Intra-Governmental Relations and Legislation; Long-Range Planning Committee: 1) The committee met on June 10 in Old Town Hall. Present were committee members Gareau and Nashar; Council members O'Grady, Kasler, Miller and McKay; Mayor Musial; Human Resources Director Copeland. The committee discussed Resolution 99-69, a resolution reauthorizing a citizens' committee created by Resolution No. 98-96 for the purpose of gathering and presenting to Council projects for the city's Community Development Block Grant applications and declaring an emergency. Human Services Director Don Copeland explained that this was a request to continue the project that was initiated Last year which was a residents' involvement committee for the purpose of reviewing and suggesting proposed Community Development Block Grant projects. This was implemented in the 1999 application process which was successful and the city was awarded a Community Development Block Grant to address various needs at Springvale Golf and Ballroom facility. The resolution, while renewing the present committee, also expands the committee by two members to a total of nine and provides that the committee shall remain in existence until December 31, 2000, thus avoiding the need to review this issue again next year. IVIr. Copeland explained that the county was impressed with the involvement of our residents and in all likelihood will be using the City of North Olmsted as a model and example for other communities when instructing them in how to proceed in the Community Development Block Grant application process. After discussion, the committee unanimously recommended amending Resolution 99-69 by altering the third whereas clause to read as presented this evening. The committee also agreed to state that members appointed by ward Councilmen must live in the ward. They also agreed to amend in that the Director of Human Resources would be responsible for two appointments as opposed to one, which was previously presented in this resolution. Mr. Copeland's position, as the Director of Human Services, was given the right to appoint two members by virtue of the fact that one of the individuals this position will be appointing in the future is an individual who will either be disabled or will be an advocate for the disabled. It was the committee's belief that Mr. Copeland is in the best position to select an individual who works in that capacity. After discussion, the committee unanimously recommended approval of Resolution 99-69. Mr. Nashar, chairperson of the Public Safety, Health & Welfare Committee: 1) The committee met on June I S In attendance were committee members Gareau, Miller and Nashar; Council members Limpert, Kasler and O'Grady.
