Council Minutes of 10-18-2016 The current situation presents what the City believes to be a real and substantial threat to the public given the real prospect of failing brick and masonry material. Additionally, the garage is in quite a deplorable condition. The City has commenced criminal property maintenance proceedings against the company and its principals. If necessary, the City will move to shut down the balconies and the facility itself if the ongoing issue of a real and substantial threat to the public remains. • The City has successfully removed the structure located at 5261 Alden. The structure was located on the corner of Alden and Berkshire and was an ongoing public nuisance. The building is gone, the property has been graded and the City will seek to have its costs reimbursed. The costs are around the order of $10,000. Director of Finance Copfer: • Welcomed the new clerk • There is a lot of legislation on first reading because of our ongoing projects. 2016- 102 to 2016-108 are refunding 2006 series D bonds which was for the library and a portion of 2006 series C which were various capital improvements. With the way the market is right now, this legislation will reduce the total cost of the original borrowing. The City will only do this if it makes fiscal sense at the time we go to the market. 2016-109 is the issuing of bonds for the February 2016 note borrowing of the $1,605,000. The amount is lower because the City has a pay down of $165,000. 2016-110 through 2016-114 are for the new money projects paid for by the proposed issuance of bonds. 2016-117 is pro forma legislation allowing the county fiscal officer to pay all the monies due the City in 2017. 2016-118 is new legislation that redirects 50% of the EMS fees from the EMS Fund into the General Fund for capital equipment and improvements. 2016-120 is the capital improvements appropriations for 2017, which includes the new monies projects paid for from the bonds mentioned above, plus capital improvements that are to be paid from current resources. • The permanent 2017 appropriations is close to being complete so plan for its introduction at the next meeting and scheduled hearings shortly thereafter. Councilman Barker, Chairman of the Public Safety, Health & Welfare Committee: The Public Safety, Health & Welfare Committee met on Tuesday, October 11, 2016 at 7:00 p.m. Present were committee members Barker, Williamson and Brossard; Council members Kearney, Schumann and Limpert; Mayor Kennedy, Law Director Gareau, Safety & Service Director Glauner and Planning & Development Director Wenger. • Discussed first was Resolution 2016-93 which is a Resolution authorizing the Mayor to enter into a one-year contract with TAC Computer, Inc. in order to provide maintenance and repair services to computer hardware and software in the North Olmsted Police Department. This is a yearly contract to provide maintenance and repairs to the computer systems in the police department. The City has been doing business with TAC for many years. There was discussion to go out for RFQ's next year due to the fact there are some other companies out there that provide the same services. A motion was made by Barker to recommend approval of 2016-93, which was seconded by Councilwoman Williamson and the committee voted 3-0 to recommend approval of 2016-93. 2
