Resolution No. 2004-152 introduced by Councilman Limpert on behalf of the entire Council was given its second reading. A resolution opposing the proposal of the Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority ("GCRTA") to eliminate the Number 53 Great Northern -Center Ridge bus route, which has been operated by the North Olmsted Municipal Bus Line ("NOMBL") since the early 1960's, urging GCRTA to instead convert the Number 53 bus route into a community circulator route and expand its route as recommended by its own consultant, to include additional service on Dover Center Road, Center Ridge Road, and Crocker Road to the Westlake Promenade, and declaring an emergency as amended. Councilman Limpert moved for suspension of the rule requiring three readings, and the motion was seconded by Councilman Gareau. Roll call: Limpert, yes noting the legislation had been discussed in committee. Roll call continued: Gareau, yes; Dailey, yes; Nashar, yes; Miller, yes; McKay, yes. The motion passed unanimously. Councilman Limpert moved for adoption, and the motion was seconded by Councilman Gareau. Roll call: Limpert, yes with comment that RTA is atax-supported organization, that tax being sales tax. A large part of that sales tax does come from the City of North Olmsted. There are many people who need this route. Since North Olmsted is a major contributor to the support of RTA through the tax dollars brought in, he is hoping RTA will show some deference and look for ways to grow this route rather than eliminating it. Roll call continued: Gareau, yes; Dailey, yes; Miller, yes; McKay, yes; Nashar, yes. The motion passed unanimously. Resolution No. 2004-152 adopted.
