Father Flynn founded the Church of Saint Clarence in North Olmsted in 1978 and had also served as an Associate Pastor at Saint Richard's also in North Olmsted. Father Flynn was the first point of contact for many people who moved into North Olmsted and could be considered single -handily the welcoming committee for this city for many years. He will be remembered for his love of this community. The Council meeting minutes of August 21, 2018 were approved as written. The following legislation will be considered for passage under suspension of the rules this evening: First Reading — Resolution 2018-86, Resolution 2018-87. REPORTS Mayor Kennedy: • No report. Director of Law Gareau: • The Saumer house, located at 30399 Lorain Road, which is the house that has been a property maintenance nightmare, has demolition equipment out front so we hope to see it removed soon. Council originally had approved the City to knock it down, but the Law Department has managed to get them to pay for it. Hopefully the property will be cleaned up quickly. • Father Flynn was a wonderful person. Director Gareau has known him his entire life at Saint Richard's as a student and at Saint Clarence when they founded the church. He was a great person and will be remembered. Director of Finance Copfer: • No report.
