This was an opportunity a chance to add amendments. There were some clarifications explained by Director Wenger and no action was taken. Councilman Limpert requested a moment of personal privilege. On Saturday, I had the privilege to attend the North Olmsted Eggstravaganza and saw the Finance Director as well. I was blown away by the event, the professionalism and the way it was run. The Recreation Department really deserves credit for really holding what I consider a top notch event that's probably under promoted even though it was very well attended. So just my congratulations to the Rec Department it really was a great event for both children and adults. So congratulations. Councilwoman Hemann requested a moment of personal privilege. Two weeks ago there was a fundraiser organized by Frank and Lovie Smerale of the North Olmsted VFW Post 7647. The Smerale's as I have reported numerous times throughout the years have been very helpful in partnering with me for raising money for the food pantry, and other things for the City. I just wanted to let everyone know they organized a fundraiser for their daughter Patty who is in need of a kidney transplant and I would like to on behalf of the Smerale's thank the Mayor and the City for the raffle basket that they put together and also the Senior Center for the raffle basket they put together. They were very touched by all of the help and raised $14,000.
