Council Minutes of 12-21-2004 2) Councilman Miller made a motion to suspend the rule requiring committee review on a liquor permit transfer for 4864 Dover Center Corp., DBA the Convenient Food Mart, which is located near the water tower, to Vanda Crescent Inc. at the same address. They have been operating for approximately two months under the previous liquor license. This is a C1, C2, D6 permit. The motion was seconded by Councilman Gareau and passed unanimously. Councilman Miller made a motion that Council not object to the liquor permit transfer from 4864 Dover Center Corp. to Vanda Crescent Inc., owned and operated by Sarah Coakley and Sean Coakley. The motion was seconded by Councilman Gareau and passed unanimously. Councilman Dailey, chairperson of the Recreation, Public Parks & Buildings Committee: 1) The committee met on December 14 to discuss Ordinance 2004-184. This is an ordinance to request proposals for installation of video surveillance equipment at the Recreation Center. In attendance were committee members Nashar, Miller and Dailey; Council members Limpert and McKay; Law Director Dubelko, Recreation Commissioner DiSalvo and Safety Director Jesse. Director Jesse advised the committee that in response to some security issues at the Recreation Center, requiring video surveillance equipment was the next step to make the center safer. He also advised that, rather than have a company come in and install whatever we ask for, this proposal will instead seek recommendations from potential vendors and then decide which plan best fits our needs. This is a design-build project. The committee asked about having passes that can be scanned for people entering the Recreation Center. Both Director Jesse and Commissioner DiSalvo advised that this is fine except for the fact that we have many people who enter the Recreation complex to watch events and that they would not have the passes. By having video surveillance coverage at the center, we will be able to view all who enter and hopefully from there determine who may have caused problems at the Recreation complex. Mr. Miller asked that, rather than approve this ordinance as written, that it be amended so that, after the proposal is accepted and the Mayor enters into agreement with the selected vendor, that they then come back before Council for the appropriation. The committee was advised that this is how the process will work. The committee unanimously recommended approval and passage under suspension of the rule. Councilman Gareau, chairperson of the Building, Zoning and Development Committee: 1) Rosati's Custard was discussed this evening at the Building, Zoning and Development Committee meeting. In attendance were City Planner Kim Wenger; Council members McKay, Limpert, Gareau and Nashar; Jim and Sharon Priscak and Jim and Marsha Rosati. Rosati's Custard has submitted a proposal to open at 26261 Lorain Road, that is the former Blimpie's building at the corner of Brookpark and Lorain roads. They came in with what originally was some rather slight exterior modifications, then became quite an extravaganza as they went through the various boards and commissions. The site has already been painted. They sought to install an outdoor seating area, planter boxes, bike racks, and some fencing/screening around the cooler to integrate the cooler into the building was recommended by the A1tB. When they returned to the Planning Commission after going to the Board of Zoning Appeals, they came back with landscape ~~': screening which had been added around the cooler and landscape screening added around 8
