Council Minutes 11/6/2002 is being administered. In that manner, the city can collect a larger percentage figure for transportation of residents and other people in our ambulance services. It will not penalize a resident in any way, but in fact increases the revenue to the city under this new, revised ordinance. The committee unanimously recommended approval of Ordinance 2002-154. ^ Ordinance 2002-148, which is a resolution authorizing the Mayor to enter into a contract with the Cuyahoga County General Health District far the year 2003. This is a boiler-plate annual resolution to approve the agreement between the city and the county for any services that they can provide to us. The committee unanimously recommended approval. 2) The Public Safety Committee met this evening to discuss two liquor permits: A new permit for Chipotle Mexican Grill which will be located at 26777 Lorain Road.

Councilman Miller noted that he had used the new Park-N-Ride facility and, although it is not completed, it is already very popular. On the first day, there were approximately 125 cars and it has increased each day. There are some growing pains, and he has asked the Public Safety Committee to took into the issue of a left turn arrow to be installed for southbound traffic at that location, and the issue as to whether or not RTA has completed or plans to complete their promises as to barrier walls and landscaping. Also, there has been some crowding and people have had to stand on buses leaving downtown. Hopefully, we will be able to make the necessary adjustments so that all riders can be seated. Mrs. Kasler noted that the Service Director had been asked to look into the timing of the light as cars come off of I-480 which is right across from the Park-N-Ride entrance. Mr. Miller agreed and also noted that the length of the turn lane heading southbound should also be extended. He does not believe they took into consideration the length of buses that would use that lane. As currerrtly configured, it will cause traffic to be blocking the through lane.
