Council Minutes of 6-02-2020 and some have been received as of the week of May 18. The final list will remove anyone who has made payment since the legislation was created. Courtesy notices were provided to the residents as well as all of the required notices by the State. There was discussion around the option to span the number of installments out over multiple assessments and Council agreed this should be allowed to be paid over three installments. The committee voted 3-0 to recommend to Council. • Discussed next was Resolution 2020-58. Director Glauner noted this agreement allows the City to maintain and rejuvenate county roads and be reimbursed for the material costs. The City would still need to pay for the labor, but it is beneficial as it would extend the road life within our City. This year's reimbursement would be $27,309. The committee voted 3-0 to recommend to Council. Councilman Limpert moved to amend Ordinance 2020-45 to allow for three installments. The motion was seconded by Councilman Kelly and passed unanimously. Roll Call: Yes: Limpert, Kelly, Schumann, Glassburn, Hemann, Brossard, Williamson No: None Motion carried. Ordinance 2020-45 amended 7-0.

A Resolution authorizing the Mayor to enter into a Mutual Aid Agreement with Ohio WARN, a statewide Water/Wastewater Agency Response Network (WARN). Director Glauner said this was a multicity response network. He said it makes no mandatory requirement to respond. Councilwoman Hemann said she did go to the website and since it is new it is hard to tell all of the member cities right now, but it did look well supported. She also said it will have no negative effect on the City. The committee voted 3-0 to recommend to Council. • Discussed next was a general discussion about the drainage issues in North Olmsted. There was a discussion about vacant parcel's currently owned by the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) and some others owned by the North Olmsted City School District. After a lengthy discussion a general decision was made to have the Environmental committee draft a letter of support on behalf of Council to support the pursuit of purchase of properties either from ODOT or the schools. The letter has been drafted and circulated to Council and will move forward with implementing comments and eventually a sign off by all Councilmembers who are interested in participating in the letter.
