Council Minutes of 1-21-2020 Roll Call: Yes: Brossard, Schumann, Williamson, Glassburn, Kelly, Limpert No: Hemann Motion carried. Councilman Limpert appointed to the Landmarks Commission. Councilwoman Hemann voted no with comment. I would like to comment those are my residents in the Historic District, which is serviced by Landmarks. Unfortunately, throughout the years everything I have desired for those residents have fallen on deaf ears even though one of our Councilmembers is a sitting member of that Landmarks Commission. We do not have a budget for the Landmarks Commission and we should. We don't have any services provided to those residents except the Home Heritage Program, which I did bring to the Landmarks Commission by having a pilot program that I turned over to Ms. Lieber. She has run it successfully and all of our residents are pleased with that. Unfortunately, there are other commissions that do in fact have budgets and our residents in this case do not. I also did want to pursue that, but was asked to step aside in favor of Mr. Limpert. I disagree that I should not be the person. However, I will let Mr. Limpert serve and hopefully he will take on all those tasks I have been arguing for all along. Mr. Limpert voted yes with comment. I look forward to supporting on Landmarks again. In the past, when we needed items, we requested it as part of Budget Hearings and have received funds to support things. Hopefully that will continue. I look forward to serving. Thank you. Councilwoman Williamson moved to appoint Councilman Brossard to the Recreation Commission. The motion was seconded by Councilman Schumann and passed unanimously. Roll Call: Yes: Williamson, Schumann, Glassburn, Hemann, Kelly, Limpert, Brossard No: None Motion carried. Councilman Brossard appointed to the Recreation Commission.
