Council Minutes of 2-6-2018 The Recreation, Public Parks and Buildings Committee met on Tuesday, January 23, 2018 at 7:00 p.m. Present were committee members Kearney, Hemann and Brossard; Council members Glassburn, Limpert, Schumann and Williamson; Council President Jones; Mayor Kennedy, Director of Safety & Service Glauner, Director of Human Resources Gallo, Director of Planning & Development Lieber and guests. • Discussed was Ordinance 2018-6. An Ordinance establishing a revised Fee and Charge Schedule for the rental of the Community Cabin/Senior Center. This is only a small increase with the Administration keeping the rates competitive with other local communities. The Committee voted 3-0 to recommend to Council. • Discussed next was Ordinance 2018-7. An Ordinance amending and restating Section 957.01 of Chapter 957 (Alcoholic Beverages on Public Grounds) of the Codified Ordinances of the City of North Olmsted in order to modify the approval process for permits. This will make the renting of the Community Cabin easier for the people wanting to use the facility. It will streamline the process, but still gives the Administration the authority on who is able to rent the cabin. The Committee voted 3-0 to recommend to Council.
