1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,000
...

2
00:01:06,096 --> 00:01:08,201
I'd like to have your attention. We'd like to

3
00:01:08,201 --> 00:01:10,574
welcome everybody to our meeting here in October

4
00:01:10,796 --> 00:01:13,239
of 2025. If you're able to, if you

5
00:01:13,239 --> 00:01:15,317
would like to stand for the Pledge of Allegiance.

6
00:01:18,513 --> 00:01:21,121
I pledge allegiance to the flag

7
00:01:21,121 --> 00:01:23,574
of the United States of America.

8
00:01:23,574 --> 00:01:25,574
And to the Republic for

9
00:01:25,574 --> 00:01:27,966
which it stands. One nation

10
00:01:27,966 --> 00:01:30,653
under God. Indivisible

11
00:01:30,653 --> 00:01:33,542
with liberty and justice for all.

12
00:01:33,542 --> 00:01:35,542
Please stay standing. Bow our heads.

13
00:01:35,542 --> 00:01:37,542
We pause now to give thanks for

14
00:01:37,542 --> 00:01:39,542
the freedoms we enjoy. For without

15
00:01:39,542 --> 00:01:41,542
them we would not be able to assemble here

16
00:01:41,542 --> 00:01:43,542
today. We take this short moment

17
00:01:43,542 --> 00:01:45,542
to remember the past, give us strength for

18
00:01:45,542 --> 00:01:47,542
the present and hope for the future.

19
00:01:47,542 --> 00:01:49,830
Amen. "Amen." McCort?

20
00:01:49,830 --> 00:01:51,830
Here. "Strah?" Here. "Kitts?"

21
00:01:51,830 --> 00:01:54,381
Here. "Sauer, absent. Dukles?" Here.

22
00:01:57,995 --> 00:01:59,995
So, tonight we have on the agenda

23
00:01:59,995 --> 00:02:01,995
two meetings. We got a joint Planning

24
00:02:01,995 --> 00:02:04,191
Commission and a Regular Council

25
00:02:04,191 --> 00:02:06,531
meeting. So we're going to go ahead and start

26
00:02:06,531 --> 00:02:08,564
with a Planning Commission meeting.

27
00:02:08,564 --> 00:02:10,564
With the application for the record

28
00:02:10,564 --> 00:02:13,248
plat approval for Fox Run,

29
00:02:13,248 --> 00:02:15,353
Subdivision number 8.

30
00:02:16,827 --> 00:02:18,827
So, we would like you folks to

31
00:02:20,008 --> 00:02:22,435
come on up and present your materials.

32
00:02:22,435 --> 00:02:24,435
That's really the thing you can do that last

33
00:02:24,435 --> 00:02:26,435
time we were saying things up here.

34
00:02:28,457 --> 00:02:30,457
Come all the way. Before you come up I want

35
00:02:30,457 --> 00:02:32,457
to thank Carl once again for coming out and

36
00:02:32,457 --> 00:02:34,457
filming our meetings.

37
00:02:34,457 --> 00:02:36,770
He does a great job with that. And

38
00:02:36,770 --> 00:02:38,770
this guy sitting next to me. His name is

39
00:02:38,770 --> 00:02:40,770
Lipian. Andrew

40
00:02:40,770 --> 00:02:42,770
Lipian. And we welcome

41
00:02:42,770 --> 00:02:44,770
him back to his position.

42
00:02:45,625 --> 00:02:47,625
Yes, sir. thank you.

43
00:02:47,997 --> 00:02:49,997
Given that on behalf of

44
00:02:49,997 --> 00:02:51,997
KTD to ask you

45
00:02:51,997 --> 00:02:53,997
for final Plat approval for

46
00:02:53,997 --> 00:02:55,997
Fox Run Subdivision Phase 8.

47
00:02:56,675 --> 00:02:58,675
Forty sublots.

48
00:03:02,192 --> 00:03:04,192
That's pretty much it.

49
00:03:10,885 --> 00:03:12,885
First, we're just talking about plat 

50
00:03:12,885 --> 00:03:15,443
approval. "The part of plat approval is just"

51
00:03:15,443 --> 00:03:17,581
so once Council

52
00:03:17,581 --> 00:03:19,888
refers to assess the improvements.

53
00:03:19,888 --> 00:03:21,888
Then we

54
00:03:21,888 --> 00:03:24,279
go over and file the plat

55
00:03:24,279 --> 00:03:26,279
and start selling lots.

56
00:03:33,206 --> 00:03:35,206
So, William, you guys have all the

57
00:03:36,002 --> 00:03:38,002
blueprints and everything. "We sent some."

58
00:03:38,002 --> 00:03:40,002
event that affects the community.

59
00:03:40,002 --> 00:03:42,002
All right.

60
00:03:42,687 --> 00:03:44,687
What I would like to do is read

61
00:03:44,687 --> 00:03:46,687
to the Board is a

62
00:03:46,687 --> 00:03:48,608
copy of the letter that came to

63
00:03:48,608 --> 00:03:50,608
today from Kleinfelder.

64
00:03:50,608 --> 00:03:52,418
from engineer

65
00:03:52,418 --> 00:03:54,418
Dennis Satero. Who took over from

66
00:03:54,418 --> 00:03:56,019
Brigette Staller.

67
00:03:56,019 --> 00:03:57,882
Brigette Staller is no longer the engineer

68
00:03:57,882 --> 00:04:00,104
from Kleinfelder. She is now

69
00:04:00,104 --> 00:04:02,104
going onto another

70
00:04:02,104 --> 00:04:04,104
employer. We have Mr.

71
00:04:04,104 --> 00:04:06,255
Satero here who would like to speak to the letter.

72
00:04:08,871 --> 00:04:10,871
Going out there looking at

73
00:04:10,871 --> 00:04:12,871
concerns that have come from the Ohio

74
00:04:12,871 --> 00:04:14,747
EPA. And there were some

75
00:04:14,747 --> 00:04:16,747
deficiencies that were

76
00:04:16,747 --> 00:04:18,747
not taken care of. And

77
00:04:18,747 --> 00:04:20,747
I recommended not to accept

78
00:04:20,747 --> 00:04:22,747
the plat. I went out there

79
00:04:22,747 --> 00:04:25,082
today and viewed

80
00:04:25,082 --> 00:04:27,082
observed deficiencies that

81
00:04:27,082 --> 00:04:29,082
the Ohio EPA said

82
00:04:29,082 --> 00:04:31,082
needed taken care of right away.

83
00:04:32,034 --> 00:04:34,034
I went out there and I noted

84
00:04:34,034 --> 00:04:36,673
that the deficiencies were taken care of.

85
00:04:36,940 --> 00:04:39,403
So, now I'm recommending

86
00:04:39,540 --> 00:04:41,540
you go ahead and sign the plat.

87
00:04:47,476 --> 00:04:49,476
I move we accept the plat

88
00:04:49,476 --> 00:04:52,027
for Subdivision number 8.

89
00:04:52,732 --> 00:04:54,732
Second.

90
00:04:54,732 --> 00:04:56,569
All in favor?

91
00:04:56,569 --> 00:04:58,759
Aye. "Opposed?"

92
00:05:03,678 --> 00:05:05,678
So we're not getting fined for anything?

93
00:05:05,678 --> 00:05:07,678
EPA stuff, correct?

94
00:05:07,678 --> 00:05:09,678
We have built.

95
00:05:09,678 --> 00:05:11,678
This just happens to be first file system

96
00:05:11,678 --> 00:05:13,678
from the current date, we do not have any

97
00:05:13,678 --> 00:05:15,678
virtual lines to the EPA.

98
00:05:15,678 --> 00:05:17,841
As far as concerns about

99
00:05:17,841 --> 00:05:19,841
the sewer not being up to grade.

100
00:05:21,230 --> 00:05:23,856
Mayor, I have some concerns with

101
00:05:23,856 --> 00:05:25,856
Planning / Zoning. "Sure."

102
00:05:26,528 --> 00:05:28,528
I have noticed a couple of

103
00:05:31,685 --> 00:05:33,685
driveways here

104
00:05:33,685 --> 00:05:35,685
that are not concrete. They're not

105
00:05:35,685 --> 00:05:37,685
according to the zoning.

106
00:05:38,174 --> 00:05:40,174
In the previous,

107
00:05:40,174 --> 00:05:42,174
many previous administrations

108
00:05:42,174 --> 00:05:44,174
any driveway that would change the

109
00:05:44,174 --> 00:05:46,174
zoning for hard surfaces

110
00:05:46,174 --> 00:05:48,174
should be concrete. So it's conforming

111
00:05:48,174 --> 00:05:49,809
through the town.

112
00:05:49,809 --> 00:05:52,026
I've seen two that were not.

113
00:05:52,026 --> 00:05:54,026
Somebody got

114
00:05:54,254 --> 00:05:56,254
their wires switched.

115
00:05:56,717 --> 00:05:58,717
And there's signs up that shouldn't be up.

116
00:05:58,717 --> 00:06:00,717
You don't have a Zoning inspector.

117
00:06:01,846 --> 00:06:03,905
If you're not going to have a Zoning inspector,

118
00:06:03,905 --> 00:06:05,905
I still want to see a zoning code. Because I

119
00:06:05,905 --> 00:06:07,905
don't like seeing gravel.

120
00:06:07,905 --> 00:06:10,272
I get the result.

121
00:06:10,272 --> 00:06:12,272
So, what if they don't inform you?

122
00:06:12,272 --> 00:06:14,363
Somebody let that happen.

123
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:21,920
I would think we would have to have a

124
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:23,920
engineer that's part of it.

125
00:06:25,062 --> 00:06:27,548
in fact, if I want to pour concrete in my yard,

126
00:06:27,548 --> 00:06:29,548
many years I was told. I could

127
00:06:29,548 --> 00:06:31,758
have my whole yard filled with concrete. So.

128
00:06:31,758 --> 00:06:33,758
I did drive the site today and I

129
00:06:33,758 --> 00:06:36,203
did see some stone via t-digger

130
00:06:36,203 --> 00:06:38,203
in Shamrock.

131
00:06:40,056 --> 00:06:42,056
...

132
00:06:42,056 --> 00:06:44,056
No, no. This is a private.

133
00:06:45,582 --> 00:06:48,158
in the Village. "Okay." "I did find stone."

134
00:06:48,158 --> 00:06:49,989
This is

135
00:06:49,989 --> 00:06:51,989
outside black stone. "Got it."

136
00:06:52,713 --> 00:06:54,713
And I've seen

137
00:06:54,713 --> 00:06:56,909
two in the last three months.

138
00:06:56,909 --> 00:06:58,909
Two months.

139
00:06:58,909 --> 00:07:00,909
And we've talked about that

140
00:07:00,909 --> 00:07:03,014
many years ago. It was also

141
00:07:03,014 --> 00:07:05,014
supposed to be conforming and be done

142
00:07:05,014 --> 00:07:07,427
all concrete. Now I'm seeing blacktop.

143
00:07:07,805 --> 00:07:09,805
Either somebody's getting permission,

144
00:07:09,805 --> 00:07:11,929
or somebody's doing it and

145
00:07:11,929 --> 00:07:13,929
asking for forgiveness later.

146
00:07:14,379 --> 00:07:16,379
That's probably the case. Please give me

147
00:07:16,379 --> 00:07:17,890
the address of those properties.

148
00:07:17,890 --> 00:07:19,890
I know which ones. I'm not sure

149
00:07:19,890 --> 00:07:21,890
but they're in my path. "All right."

150
00:07:21,890 --> 00:07:23,890
Then I'm seeing signs go up.

151
00:07:25,208 --> 00:07:27,633
The ones Ryan has on a hill. Ones.

152
00:07:28,018 --> 00:07:30,018
They're too tall.

153
00:07:30,018 --> 00:07:32,018
We got into it with the dentist's

154
00:07:32,018 --> 00:07:34,018
toothbrush for being like what? Eight inches

155
00:07:34,018 --> 00:07:35,637
higher

156
00:07:35,637 --> 00:07:37,978
the signs were going to be. And.

157
00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:40,742
We had them come in a get a special

158
00:07:42,484 --> 00:07:44,543
variance and propose it.

159
00:07:45,267 --> 00:07:47,267
And I'm seeing all these little signs go up

160
00:07:47,267 --> 00:07:49,319
with the. You can stick them in

161
00:07:49,319 --> 00:07:51,319
the ground that way. "Walk around."

162
00:07:51,319 --> 00:07:53,319
Temporary signs is the thing you adhere to

163
00:07:53,319 --> 00:07:55,319
zoning about temporary signs.

164
00:07:55,821 --> 00:07:57,926
Kind of a grand opening. Different things.

165
00:07:58,370 --> 00:08:00,624
When we had Jerry as Zoning inspector that

166
00:08:00,624 --> 00:08:03,720
was enforced. We don't have a Zoning inspector.

167
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:05,994
We're not Zoning inspectors. I'm just bringing it

168
00:08:05,994 --> 00:08:07,994
to your attention. That I'm seeing these.

169
00:08:11,477 --> 00:08:13,477
I've been around so many years on the zoning

170
00:08:13,477 --> 00:08:15,053
that I can see things

171
00:08:15,053 --> 00:08:17,053
we've talked about. I'm sure that we have.

172
00:08:17,053 --> 00:08:19,053
I don't know how we're going to address this.

173
00:08:19,053 --> 00:08:21,217
While I can't speak to the Zoning inspectors.

174
00:08:21,217 --> 00:08:23,217
That predates many of us

175
00:08:23,217 --> 00:08:25,217
up here. I can say is that

176
00:08:25,217 --> 00:08:27,294
you get with me, we will look into getting

177
00:08:27,295 --> 00:08:29,295
a Zoning inspector. If you give me addresses

178
00:08:29,295 --> 00:08:31,295
of some violations you've observed.

179
00:08:31,295 --> 00:08:33,191
We will take those and work with.

180
00:08:33,191 --> 00:08:35,191
If I decided to write it down and took it

181
00:08:35,191 --> 00:08:37,191
downtown and not to you.

182
00:08:37,458 --> 00:08:39,458
But we know what that is.

183
00:08:40,286 --> 00:08:42,286
The Ryan Homes ones is obvious.

184
00:08:42,286 --> 00:08:44,286
It's right in front of me. It's right

185
00:08:44,286 --> 00:08:46,436
in front of Fox Run. It's Ryan Homes and

186
00:08:46,436 --> 00:08:48,658
it's not the construction site. It says

187
00:08:48,658 --> 00:08:50,658
you know, selling lots. or now in

188
00:08:50,658 --> 00:08:52,958
progress. That sort of thing which is allowed.

189
00:08:52,958 --> 00:08:55,273
It's, it's Ryan signs that are

190
00:08:55,273 --> 00:08:58,006
probably 20 feet tall sitting on a hill.

191
00:08:58,567 --> 00:09:01,018
They say Ryan Homes maybe 20 feet on that.

192
00:09:01,018 --> 00:09:03,018
Yeah.

193
00:09:03,018 --> 00:09:05,018
And those are, those are.

194
00:09:05,018 --> 00:09:07,018
Those weren't approved.

195
00:09:07,018 --> 00:09:09,018
They're against. They're very

196
00:09:09,018 --> 00:09:11,018
against the Zoning policies and

197
00:09:11,018 --> 00:09:13,018
ordinances. So they should have gone

198
00:09:13,018 --> 00:09:15,365
to at least propose them to get them.

199
00:09:15,632 --> 00:09:17,632
There's room for

200
00:09:19,615 --> 00:09:21,615
but not a lot. "Right. I guess"

201
00:09:21,615 --> 00:09:23,615
the thing to do is pull them out.

202
00:09:26,263 --> 00:09:28,263
The building inspector's must enforce

203
00:09:28,263 --> 00:09:30,615
Zoning codes we have here.

204
00:09:30,615 --> 00:09:32,615
While you're at the probably send me a copy

205
00:09:32,615 --> 00:09:34,615
of the Charter. This is the section that

206
00:09:34,615 --> 00:09:36,615
outlines that. So that

207
00:09:36,615 --> 00:09:38,615
would be Bill Difucci. So I will get with him

208
00:09:38,615 --> 00:09:40,615
on this. I can't speak to the height

209
00:09:40,615 --> 00:09:42,615
of the flag signs. But I do know that

210
00:09:42,615 --> 00:09:44,615
about to be sent over the ... Ryan signs

211
00:09:44,615 --> 00:09:46,615
are authorized. With that being specific

212
00:09:46,615 --> 00:09:48,615
boundaries. So we will check with the building

213
00:09:48,615 --> 00:09:50,811
inspector. "We have a height." Yes. ...

214
00:09:50,811 --> 00:09:52,811
Yes. So if you get with me

215
00:09:52,811 --> 00:09:54,955
any violations you find.

216
00:09:54,955 --> 00:09:57,073
We also draw attention to anyone note those.

217
00:09:57,073 --> 00:09:59,073
Any additional issues that you find

218
00:09:59,073 --> 00:10:01,073
you're out and about. We encourage you to

219
00:10:01,073 --> 00:10:03,301
share those with us so we can deal with them

220
00:10:03,301 --> 00:10:05,544
properly. "You want like Donati and the police."

221
00:10:05,544 --> 00:10:07,544
Right.

222
00:10:08,392 --> 00:10:10,884
So anybody in the Village. "When there's any"

223
00:10:10,884 --> 00:10:13,376
signs, though. I don't want to do that. "That's"

224
00:10:13,376 --> 00:10:15,376
why we say we encourage you to. You don't have to.

225
00:10:15,376 --> 00:10:17,376
We appreciate anybody from the public shares

226
00:10:17,376 --> 00:10:19,652
with us. So that you guys ...

227
00:10:19,652 --> 00:10:21,652
I just say that about not only violations

228
00:10:21,652 --> 00:10:23,652
but issues, safety.

229
00:10:23,652 --> 00:10:25,757
We'll, we encourage you to get

230
00:10:25,757 --> 00:10:27,757
back to us with that.

231
00:10:27,757 --> 00:10:30,504
And the grand opening floppy signs.

232
00:10:30,504 --> 00:10:32,654
How long are you going to have a grand opening for?

233
00:10:33,117 --> 00:10:35,117
It's allowed 30 days. "How long do you have to ...?"

234
00:10:35,117 --> 00:10:37,694
It's probably been longer than that.

235
00:10:37,893 --> 00:10:39,893
We'll get together and back at me.

236
00:10:39,893 --> 00:10:41,893
Except that one.

237
00:10:43,100 --> 00:10:45,100
I'd like to make a comment. Statement.

238
00:10:45,100 --> 00:10:46,970
You may.

239
00:10:46,970 --> 00:10:49,364
We just approved. We just approved

240
00:10:49,364 --> 00:10:51,364
plot 8, Phase 8.

241
00:10:51,364 --> 00:10:53,364
I would appreciate it if

242
00:10:53,364 --> 00:10:55,364
we have Phase 9

243
00:10:55,364 --> 00:10:56,926
and work on the

244
00:10:56,926 --> 00:10:58,926
backward access road

245
00:10:58,926 --> 00:11:00,926
to the west of the development.

246
00:11:00,926 --> 00:11:02,926
Because we're getting quite a few people in there

247
00:11:02,926 --> 00:11:04,716
now. Quite a few houses.

248
00:11:04,716 --> 00:11:06,507
I'm not sure

249
00:11:06,507 --> 00:11:08,507
the plan is laid out.

250
00:11:08,507 --> 00:11:10,507
But I'd like to see if we could work it

251
00:11:10,507 --> 00:11:12,507
in before Phase 10.

252
00:11:12,879 --> 00:11:14,879
You're going to put 40 houses in and

253
00:11:14,879 --> 00:11:16,879
I don't know what Phase 10 is going to be.

254
00:11:17,101 --> 00:11:19,779
And I don't know what the economy is going to do.

255
00:11:20,268 --> 00:11:22,366
But I'd really ilke it for public safety.

256
00:11:23,162 --> 00:11:25,162
If God forbid, we have a

257
00:11:25,162 --> 00:11:27,162
catastrophe there and not be able

258
00:11:27,162 --> 00:11:29,162
to get into the front

259
00:11:29,162 --> 00:11:31,162
to the people in the back,

260
00:11:31,782 --> 00:11:33,782
Or, just a suggestion.

261
00:11:35,315 --> 00:11:37,511
Just stating my, stating my mind.

262
00:11:39,129 --> 00:11:40,874
It's possible, I'd like to see that.

263
00:11:41,592 --> 00:11:43,592
That would make it go a lot smoother

264
00:11:43,592 --> 00:11:45,592
for things.

265
00:11:47,803 --> 00:11:49,803
Anybody else?

266
00:11:49,803 --> 00:11:52,130
Council, you have anymore questions? Anybody?

267
00:11:54,446 --> 00:11:56,958
Then we can move on to our regular council meeting.

268
00:11:57,747 --> 00:12:00,067
Council, I need a motion to approve the minutes.

269
00:12:00,426 --> 00:12:02,426
So moved. "Second."

270
00:12:02,785 --> 00:12:04,785
All in favor? "Aye."

271
00:12:04,785 --> 00:12:06,530
Opposed?

272
00:12:06,654 --> 00:12:08,654
I need a motion to pay our bills.

273
00:12:09,202 --> 00:12:11,202
So moved. "Second."

274
00:12:11,202 --> 00:12:13,033
All in favor? "Aye."

275
00:12:13,033 --> 00:12:14,609
Opposed?

276
00:12:14,863 --> 00:12:16,994
And a motion to read all ordinances

277
00:12:16,994 --> 00:12:18,831
and resolutions by

278
00:12:18,831 --> 00:12:20,660
title only.

279
00:12:20,660 --> 00:12:22,660
So moved. "Second."

280
00:12:22,660 --> 00:12:24,660
All in favor? "Aye."

281
00:12:24,660 --> 00:12:26,404
Opposed?

282
00:12:26,404 --> 00:12:28,443
All right. We're up to the Mayor's update.

283
00:12:28,443 --> 00:12:30,443
The Fall Festival went great.

284
00:12:30,639 --> 00:12:32,724
It was bigger than it was last year.

285
00:12:32,724 --> 00:12:34,724
I think every year it's growing. Of course the

286
00:12:34,724 --> 00:12:36,266
weather was bad last year.

287
00:12:36,266 --> 00:12:38,455
And everybody seems to enjoy it and we had

288
00:12:38,455 --> 00:12:40,331
four food trucks there.

289
00:12:41,427 --> 00:12:43,427
I think everybody went good for that.

290
00:12:43,427 --> 00:12:45,427
At least they had quite a good time down there

291
00:12:45,427 --> 00:12:47,198
walking around.

292
00:12:48,764 --> 00:12:50,764
This morning I swore in

293
00:12:50,764 --> 00:12:52,660
another auxiliary

294
00:12:52,660 --> 00:12:54,935
police woman. So we ended up

295
00:12:54,935 --> 00:12:57,150
giving Danny Clark one more resource

296
00:12:57,150 --> 00:12:59,516
to turn to.

297
00:12:59,516 --> 00:13:01,470
I'd like to get everybody

298
00:13:01,470 --> 00:13:03,470
pumped up. Ready to go

299
00:13:03,470 --> 00:13:06,157
for Old Fashioned Christmas because we're

300
00:13:06,157 --> 00:13:08,157
still looking for volunteers.

301
00:13:08,523 --> 00:13:10,699
And that's going to be coming right

302
00:13:10,699 --> 00:13:12,418
around the corner.

303
00:13:12,418 --> 00:13:14,418
We have our Halloween

304
00:13:14,418 --> 00:13:17,199
parade is the 26th.

305
00:13:17,447 --> 00:13:19,552
We have a grand opening of

306
00:13:20,472 --> 00:13:22,472
Blooming Butter. I think is the name of it.

307
00:13:22,472 --> 00:13:24,472
Butter and Bloom. "Butter and Bloom."

308
00:13:24,472 --> 00:13:26,472
Thanks. I knew I'd mess that up.

309
00:13:27,398 --> 00:13:29,398
And that'll be on Saturday

310
00:13:29,398 --> 00:13:31,188
morning at 9 o'clock.

311
00:13:31,188 --> 00:13:32,847
So, that's another

312
00:13:32,847 --> 00:13:34,847
business that we brought into Grafton.

313
00:13:37,645 --> 00:13:39,645
And then we have the Halloween parade. And

314
00:13:39,645 --> 00:13:42,036
trick or treat is on Halloween.

315
00:13:42,271 --> 00:13:44,271
And.

316
00:13:45,093 --> 00:13:47,093
Chief Clark, when we get to that

317
00:13:47,093 --> 00:13:49,093
you and Chief Thompson can talk

318
00:13:49,093 --> 00:13:51,093
a little bit about the parade. And

319
00:13:51,093 --> 00:13:53,093
who our judges are and how we're going to

320
00:13:53,093 --> 00:13:54,791
do the lineups and all that.

321
00:13:54,791 --> 00:13:56,726
Yeah. I'm pushing it off on you two.

322
00:13:58,031 --> 00:14:00,031
And how's the biggest problem

323
00:14:00,031 --> 00:14:02,735
that I have so far. It's still a problem.

324
00:14:02,944 --> 00:14:05,325
It's CSX over and on the track.

325
00:14:05,677 --> 00:14:07,677
They have ignored every phone call that I

326
00:14:07,677 --> 00:14:10,043
ever made. They're ignoring

327
00:14:10,043 --> 00:14:12,382
Mr. Lipian's phone calls.

328
00:14:12,682 --> 00:14:14,682
So, in a meeting today

329
00:14:14,682 --> 00:14:17,213
we sat down and we googled their address.

330
00:14:17,213 --> 00:14:19,279
And Mr. Lipian volunteered

331
00:14:19,292 --> 00:14:21,325
to go out to their corporate headquarters

332
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:25,002
and kind of force a meeting upon them.

333
00:14:25,328 --> 00:14:27,328
So we can get that problem fixed.

334
00:14:28,104 --> 00:14:30,104
You're going to start tearing up cars and

335
00:14:30,104 --> 00:14:32,104
mufflers and everything else on those tracks.

336
00:14:32,273 --> 00:14:33,911
You can try to look and come

337
00:14:33,911 --> 00:14:35,380
to a complete stop.

338
00:14:35,380 --> 00:14:37,380
I mean they're that bad.

339
00:14:37,380 --> 00:14:39,595
So, we're working on that still.

340
00:14:39,595 --> 00:14:41,595
And going to Grafton, we got your

341
00:14:41,595 --> 00:14:43,320
Village sign up on the wall.

342
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:45,320
What do you think of that? "Might as well"

343
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:47,320
guess when I public comment then.

344
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:49,855
We already said that. "Save it. Because I,"

345
00:14:49,855 --> 00:14:51,855
I got stuff to say.

346
00:14:54,229 --> 00:14:56,229
At least we got it up there. "Yes."

347
00:14:56,229 --> 00:14:58,334
So it looks better than it did before.

348
00:14:58,334 --> 00:15:00,334
Oh my, yes. Yes.

349
00:15:00,334 --> 00:15:02,334
So, we made one person happy.

350
00:15:04,284 --> 00:15:06,284
Mr. Lipian hasn't been here in a while

351
00:15:06,284 --> 00:15:08,284
and I'm going to turn over the rest

352
00:15:08,284 --> 00:15:10,284
of my report to him.

353
00:15:10,284 --> 00:15:12,284
I'll just let you go through with what you have.

354
00:15:12,682 --> 00:15:14,682
Thank you, Mayor. Thank you Council.

355
00:15:14,682 --> 00:15:16,525
And the public.

356
00:15:16,525 --> 00:15:18,525
First I'd like to thank you

357
00:15:18,525 --> 00:15:20,525
for supporting my military service.

358
00:15:20,525 --> 00:15:23,372
Cause of your support, my military duty,

359
00:15:23,783 --> 00:15:25,783
I'm able to support you.

360
00:15:26,435 --> 00:15:28,435
From 18 weeks of nonconsecutive

361
00:15:28,435 --> 00:15:30,435
military duty between officer training school

362
00:15:30,435 --> 00:15:32,304
and public affairs officer school.

363
00:15:32,304 --> 00:15:34,022
What a tremendous deal.

364
00:15:34,022 --> 00:15:35,905
I've become a better leader.

365
00:15:35,905 --> 00:15:37,905
And public affairs is directly related

366
00:15:37,905 --> 00:15:39,905
to my role as village administrator

367
00:15:39,905 --> 00:15:41,905
per the Grafton charter. The training

368
00:15:41,905 --> 00:15:43,905
I received was directly related to my

369
00:15:43,905 --> 00:15:45,905
job as a administrator. So,

370
00:15:45,905 --> 00:15:47,846
thank you for your support. I'm coming back

371
00:15:47,846 --> 00:15:49,748
stronger than ever and I'm going to keep

372
00:15:49,748 --> 00:15:51,302
serving you.

373
00:15:51,302 --> 00:15:53,302
I'd also like to thank Kevin

374
00:15:53,302 --> 00:15:55,630
Maldanado. His very competent

375
00:15:55,630 --> 00:15:57,630
service that he provided to the Village while

376
00:15:57,630 --> 00:15:59,748
I was on military duty. We presented him

377
00:15:59,748 --> 00:16:01,748
with a plaque today. Acknowledgement from

378
00:16:01,748 --> 00:16:03,950
the staff for that service.

379
00:16:03,950 --> 00:16:05,950
His flexibility as I was in and out

380
00:16:05,950 --> 00:16:07,950
of the office. His professionalism is to

381
00:16:07,950 --> 00:16:09,657
be commended.

382
00:16:09,657 --> 00:16:11,657
I would like to update on a few

383
00:16:11,657 --> 00:16:13,657
of the important things that took place

384
00:16:13,657 --> 00:16:15,448
since I've come back.

385
00:16:15,448 --> 00:16:17,448
I was able to visit Lorain County Veterans

386
00:16:17,448 --> 00:16:19,448
Service Commission meeting, which

387
00:16:19,448 --> 00:16:21,448
governs the services for veterans in our

388
00:16:21,448 --> 00:16:23,448
county. We also discussed

389
00:16:23,448 --> 00:16:25,448
a request be made for the Honor Fund

390
00:16:25,448 --> 00:16:26,943
for the memorial.

391
00:16:26,943 --> 00:16:28,943
And was very positively received.

392
00:16:28,943 --> 00:16:30,878
There'll be more to discuss on that

393
00:16:30,878 --> 00:16:32,438
in the coming month.

394
00:16:32,438 --> 00:16:34,438
They are really optimistic

395
00:16:34,438 --> 00:16:36,994
that we will receive some support from them.

396
00:16:36,994 --> 00:16:38,994
They also encouraged us to reach out for

397
00:16:38,994 --> 00:16:41,571
additional support. So, I'm requesting some

398
00:16:41,571 --> 00:16:43,388
sponsoring of veteran banners.

399
00:16:43,388 --> 00:16:45,388
I'm also requesting

400
00:16:45,388 --> 00:16:47,676
potential grass cutting services

401
00:16:47,676 --> 00:16:50,204
and fertilizing services for the long term

402
00:16:50,204 --> 00:16:52,204
veterans lawn. So we can keep it looking

403
00:16:52,204 --> 00:16:54,373
good, at least where we have a burden on our

404
00:16:54,373 --> 00:16:56,373
services. "And a granite base"

405
00:16:56,373 --> 00:16:58,373
for flowers to be put in.

406
00:16:58,373 --> 00:17:00,373
For whoever wants to honor them by

407
00:17:00,373 --> 00:17:01,778
putting flowers there.

408
00:17:01,778 --> 00:17:03,778
There's one down in ... for that.

409
00:17:03,778 --> 00:17:05,778
We'll see what they give us. Thank you for

410
00:17:05,778 --> 00:17:07,778
working with the VFW. They've been great

411
00:17:07,778 --> 00:17:10,045
to work with here in the local community on that.

412
00:17:10,045 --> 00:17:11,895
Leaf pickup will begin

413
00:17:11,895 --> 00:17:13,673
November 8th.

414
00:17:13,673 --> 00:17:15,673
Pardon me.

415
00:17:16,821 --> 00:17:19,349
Yes. Leaf pickup with begin November 8th.

416
00:17:19,349 --> 00:17:21,638
We also have. Pardon me.

417
00:17:21,638 --> 00:17:23,638
Leaf pickup is November 3rd.

418
00:17:23,638 --> 00:17:25,638
Thank you. Leaf pickup is November

419
00:17:25,638 --> 00:17:27,638
3rd and we'll be winterizing bathrooms

420
00:17:27,638 --> 00:17:29,841
in the park. So they will be inaccessible.

421
00:17:29,841 --> 00:17:31,697
Soon.

422
00:17:31,697 --> 00:17:33,697
We have some other things to discuss on the

423
00:17:33,697 --> 00:17:35,697
agenda. I will make comments on those when

424
00:17:35,697 --> 00:17:37,697
they come. But once again, thank you so much

425
00:17:37,697 --> 00:17:39,697
for supporting my military service.

426
00:17:45,809 --> 00:17:47,809
Budway, you have anything you want to

427
00:17:47,809 --> 00:17:49,809
discuss?

428
00:17:49,809 --> 00:17:51,809
No.

429
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:54,200
Does anybody else on Council have

430
00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:56,200
anything they want to bring up? Before we

431
00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:58,585
go on to the police report and fire report?

432
00:18:02,570 --> 00:18:04,570
Okay. "In regards to"

433
00:18:04,570 --> 00:18:06,570
the ordinance with the Public Library

434
00:18:06,570 --> 00:18:08,570
property sale on this

435
00:18:08,570 --> 00:18:10,582
for a second reading.

436
00:18:11,802 --> 00:18:13,802
It was brought to my attention that

437
00:18:13,802 --> 00:18:15,802
they'd like to have a reversion clause in this

438
00:18:15,802 --> 00:18:18,526
should they not do the transferring properly.

439
00:18:18,526 --> 00:18:20,526
To protect us. "Absolutely."

440
00:18:20,526 --> 00:18:22,526
So, I'm going to ask for the reading.

441
00:18:23,909 --> 00:18:25,909
We get that far, we'll do it.

442
00:18:28,205 --> 00:18:30,401
Anybody else on Council have anything?

443
00:18:34,054 --> 00:18:36,054
All right. Chief Clark, you're up.

444
00:18:36,348 --> 00:18:38,348
We had 631 calls

445
00:18:38,348 --> 00:18:40,682
for service last month. Thirty-three

446
00:18:40,682 --> 00:18:43,318
to assist other units last month.

447
00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:46,109
Last Thursday Sgt. Jake

448
00:18:46,109 --> 00:18:47,939
along with the Sheriff's department

449
00:18:47,939 --> 00:18:49,939
attended an ALERRT

450
00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:52,200
at Columbia High School.

451
00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,377
With the procedures with them and

452
00:18:54,377 --> 00:18:57,048
how we come up with a plan to do that.

453
00:18:57,381 --> 00:18:59,590
Evacuate and coordinate.

454
00:19:01,032 --> 00:19:03,032
That's it.

455
00:19:05,035 --> 00:19:07,035
And Chief Thompson, I guess you'll

456
00:19:07,035 --> 00:19:09,035
tell us a little bit about the Halloween day thing.

457
00:19:09,733 --> 00:19:11,725
I think you had to

458
00:19:11,733 --> 00:19:13,569
line up Sunday at noon at the

459
00:19:13,569 --> 00:19:16,410
Police station and Fire station on Chestnut.

460
00:19:16,410 --> 00:19:18,410
Step off's at 1 o'clock.

461
00:19:18,410 --> 00:19:20,410
Between noon and 1

462
00:19:20,410 --> 00:19:22,946
we'll be treating groups of preschoolers.

463
00:19:22,946 --> 00:19:25,169
Giving them treats. And then

464
00:19:25,169 --> 00:19:27,405
8th through high school will be

465
00:19:27,405 --> 00:19:29,405
judged on costumes

466
00:19:29,405 --> 00:19:32,011
individually and as groups. Because I know a lot

467
00:19:32,011 --> 00:19:34,654
of the can get up in group costumes.

468
00:19:35,698 --> 00:19:38,156
We try to keep the names of the judges

469
00:19:38,156 --> 00:19:40,156
quiet until the day of.

470
00:19:40,156 --> 00:19:42,378
So, nobody's harrassing judges before hand.

471
00:19:42,378 --> 00:19:44,378
Whatever their costumer is.

472
00:19:46,850 --> 00:19:49,288
And a politician can be bought, right?

473
00:19:52,099 --> 00:19:54,217
At the break we'll have doughnuts and cider.

474
00:19:57,163 --> 00:19:59,163
The Association's done this

475
00:19:59,163 --> 00:20:01,340
looking back in history. It looks

476
00:20:01,340 --> 00:20:03,340
like in our 90 year history they've done

477
00:20:03,340 --> 00:20:05,563
this as the Association

478
00:20:05,563 --> 00:20:07,563
for 87 years.

479
00:20:07,844 --> 00:20:10,183
They've sponsored the Halloween event.

480
00:20:10,946 --> 00:20:12,750
They started off as a party, and

481
00:20:12,750 --> 00:20:14,750
then that turned into a parade.

482
00:20:16,329 --> 00:20:18,329
Yes. That's on the 26th.

483
00:20:18,329 --> 00:20:20,329
And that's all we've got and

484
00:20:20,329 --> 00:20:22,329
we're out there too far in advance on that.

485
00:20:23,901 --> 00:20:25,901
As far as calls go, we can still training

486
00:20:25,901 --> 00:20:28,038
with LaGrange at the acquired structure.

487
00:20:28,781 --> 00:20:31,141
We had Carlisle out there.

488
00:20:31,487 --> 00:20:33,487
Fire 2 class is going on.

489
00:20:33,487 --> 00:20:36,250
County fire chiefs were out there last weekend.

490
00:20:36,688 --> 00:20:38,374
Weekends, you'll say

491
00:20:38,374 --> 00:20:40,374
and had some very good training.

492
00:20:40,374 --> 00:20:42,504
We've been partnering with UH

493
00:20:42,504 --> 00:20:44,504
trying to get more stuff offered

494
00:20:44,504 --> 00:20:46,504
to keep our people trained.

495
00:20:47,150 --> 00:20:49,470
All our paramedics had to go through

496
00:20:49,470 --> 00:20:51,470
ACLS. Which is Advanced

497
00:20:51,470 --> 00:20:54,068
Cardiac Life Support. And held

498
00:20:54,068 --> 00:20:56,068
pediatric and adult life support.

499
00:20:56,068 --> 00:20:58,676
Last month we had a

500
00:20:58,676 --> 00:21:01,003
triage expert over at Carlisle

501
00:21:01,003 --> 00:21:03,003
for the Labels class.

502
00:21:03,003 --> 00:21:05,114
And next Tuesday

503
00:21:05,114 --> 00:21:08,138
we'll have the ACLS class at our station.

504
00:21:08,138 --> 00:21:10,138
UH comes out. Puts that on

505
00:21:10,138 --> 00:21:12,138
for us at no cost to our people.

506
00:21:13,045 --> 00:21:15,294
Last Friday

507
00:21:15,294 --> 00:21:17,366
we had a Zoom meeting with

508
00:21:17,366 --> 00:21:19,653
CYS, the County Youth Services.

509
00:21:20,390 --> 00:21:23,236
The project manager and the architect

510
00:21:23,236 --> 00:21:25,354
for the Route 83 Project

511
00:21:25,354 --> 00:21:27,354
for Youth Services

512
00:21:27,354 --> 00:21:29,478
They wanted to make sure that everything

513
00:21:29,478 --> 00:21:32,534
for Fire and EMS was

514
00:21:32,801 --> 00:21:35,016
up to code and everything we needed

515
00:21:35,016 --> 00:21:37,016
for access on the property.

516
00:21:37,290 --> 00:21:39,290
Long before they even start moving earth.

517
00:21:39,988 --> 00:21:41,988
It was a very productive meeting. There were

518
00:21:41,988 --> 00:21:44,054
no surprises.

519
00:21:44,060 --> 00:21:45,800
Just a couple of minor

520
00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:48,426
nudges that we asked for that

521
00:21:48,426 --> 00:21:50,086
were not a problem.

522
00:21:50,086 --> 00:21:52,086
We actually reviewed the drawing with

523
00:21:52,086 --> 00:21:54,086
the safety service director before the meetings,

524
00:21:54,086 --> 00:21:56,086
so he was up to speed as well.

525
00:21:56,686 --> 00:21:58,686
Our run numbers are 300 and

526
00:21:58,686 --> 00:22:00,686
89 so far this year.

527
00:22:00,686 --> 00:22:02,954
Ninety mutual aid gives.

528
00:22:03,345 --> 00:22:05,514
Thirteen mutual aid receives.

529
00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:08,363
We continue to receive aid

530
00:22:08,363 --> 00:22:10,186
requests from multiple agenices for

531
00:22:10,186 --> 00:22:12,186
different types of calls.

532
00:22:12,186 --> 00:22:14,186
Again, one of our squads went out of town

533
00:22:14,186 --> 00:22:16,186
over the weekend. Out of the County.

534
00:22:16,186 --> 00:22:18,487
And the weekend

535
00:22:18,644 --> 00:22:20,644
for everybody that was down at the Fall

536
00:22:20,644 --> 00:22:23,514
Festival, I apologize for the

537
00:22:23,821 --> 00:22:25,821
lack of Fire and EMS attendants.

538
00:22:25,821 --> 00:22:28,169
But we had nine calls in

539
00:22:28,169 --> 00:22:30,032
just over

540
00:22:30,032 --> 00:22:32,032
27, 28 hours. And five

541
00:22:32,032 --> 00:22:34,575
of them were during the Fall Festival.

542
00:22:34,574 --> 00:22:36,574
So our crews were pretty busy.

543
00:22:37,109 --> 00:22:39,144
During that time there were three mutual aid

544
00:22:39,144 --> 00:22:42,491
gives and four separate calls for the prison.

545
00:22:42,491 --> 00:22:44,491
We actually had two medic squads

546
00:22:44,491 --> 00:22:46,491
out on those calls. And

547
00:22:46,491 --> 00:22:48,491
we already had a fire engine

548
00:22:48,491 --> 00:22:50,491
also responding during that time.

549
00:22:51,124 --> 00:22:53,124
Pretty proud of the guys and gals over

550
00:22:53,124 --> 00:22:55,000
there. They're doing everything

551
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:57,000
that's asked of them. And taking care of the

552
00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:59,000
community very well.

553
00:23:01,916 --> 00:23:03,916
Well done.

554
00:23:03,916 --> 00:23:05,916
So, getting back to our Fall

555
00:23:05,916 --> 00:23:07,916
Festival. I want to thank

556
00:23:07,916 --> 00:23:10,507
Cailyn for everything that she'd done.

557
00:23:10,507 --> 00:23:12,507
She put this together and

558
00:23:12,507 --> 00:23:14,638
kind of did it as a one man army.

559
00:23:14,638 --> 00:23:16,390
And everything thing turned out

560
00:23:16,390 --> 00:23:18,390
to be really, really nice.

561
00:23:18,390 --> 00:23:20,390
Like I said before, there were a lot of people

562
00:23:20,390 --> 00:23:22,390
there. It was organized.

563
00:23:22,390 --> 00:23:24,933
We had, we had very few problems.

564
00:23:24,933 --> 00:23:26,933
Chief Clark, we has zero problems

565
00:23:26,933 --> 00:23:28,933
on your end, correct? "Correct?

566
00:23:28,991 --> 00:23:30,806
We didn't even need your coverage.

567
00:23:30,806 --> 00:23:33,073
Is that about right? "Hmmm."

568
00:23:33,536 --> 00:23:35,536
Yeah, they parked themselves. It was pretty much

569
00:23:35,536 --> 00:23:37,889
the Sheriff's department. "Everything went well."

570
00:23:37,889 --> 00:23:40,106
The one question I'm being hit on all

571
00:23:40,106 --> 00:23:41,838
the time. I'm going to let

572
00:23:41,838 --> 00:23:44,399
Mr. Lipian answer it. But

573
00:23:44,771 --> 00:23:47,046
Him and I have both been in touch with

574
00:23:47,046 --> 00:23:48,895
Mr. Ralph Pence.

575
00:23:49,652 --> 00:23:51,652
Going over this pharmacy thing.

576
00:23:51,652 --> 00:23:53,652
And everybody wants to know when that

577
00:23:53,652 --> 00:23:55,652
will happen. When that's going to happen.

578
00:23:55,652 --> 00:23:57,652
It's kind of a complicated thing, but

579
00:23:57,652 --> 00:23:59,652
I'm going to let Andrew try and read through

580
00:23:59,652 --> 00:24:01,652
and explain it to you.

581
00:24:01,652 --> 00:24:03,292
Thank you, Mayor.

582
00:24:03,292 --> 00:24:05,703
I spoke with Mr. Pence several times.

583
00:24:05,703 --> 00:24:07,781
He has a year and some change

584
00:24:07,781 --> 00:24:10,980
remaining on his window to utilize the grant.

585
00:24:11,300 --> 00:24:13,607
We are now tapping higher level resouces

586
00:24:13,607 --> 00:24:15,561
to include Team NEO. Which is an

587
00:24:15,561 --> 00:24:17,561
economic developer from east Ohio. As well

588
00:24:17,561 --> 00:24:19,561
as Lorain Economic Development

589
00:24:19,561 --> 00:24:21,561
and potentially a congressman.

590
00:24:21,561 --> 00:24:23,561
We're going to cobble these resources

591
00:24:23,561 --> 00:24:25,561
together to give him the kind of support he needs

592
00:24:25,561 --> 00:24:27,561
to make this pharmacy happen sooner, rather than

593
00:24:27,561 --> 00:24:29,974
later. And cut through bureaucratic red tape

594
00:24:29,974 --> 00:24:31,974
as cleanly as possible. Make it happen.

595
00:24:33,729 --> 00:24:36,055
There's a lot of red tape in a pharmacy.

596
00:24:39,297 --> 00:24:41,297
So, now we're now we're at the public

597
00:24:42,034 --> 00:24:44,034
comments. "Mr. Mayor."

598
00:24:44,034 --> 00:24:46,034
We need to approve

599
00:24:46,034 --> 00:24:48,034
the Planning Commission.

600
00:24:48,876 --> 00:24:50,968
Got a recommendation from Planning.

601
00:24:50,968 --> 00:24:53,024
You're absolutely correct. "We need"

602
00:24:53,024 --> 00:24:55,024
to get it done so we don't let it slip.

603
00:25:00,569 --> 00:25:02,569
Need a motion. "So moved."

604
00:25:02,569 --> 00:25:03,814
We got the motion.

605
00:25:03,814 --> 00:25:05,919
I think we have to suspend the rules.

606
00:25:06,695 --> 00:25:08,538
It's an emergency, isn't it? "No."

607
00:25:09,014 --> 00:25:11,014
Okay. I make a motion that we

608
00:25:11,014 --> 00:25:13,014
accept the

609
00:25:14,064 --> 00:25:16,064
Planning Commission's motion for

610
00:25:16,064 --> 00:25:18,064
Approving the plat. "approving the plat."

611
00:25:18,886 --> 00:25:20,886
Second.

612
00:25:21,454 --> 00:25:23,454
All in favor? "Aye."

613
00:25:23,454 --> 00:25:25,187
Opposed?

614
00:25:26,276 --> 00:25:28,276
There we go.

615
00:25:29,626 --> 00:25:31,626
Princess Diana Walsh.

616
00:25:31,815 --> 00:25:33,815
We may have to run from Hollow

617
00:25:34,304 --> 00:25:36,304
in a public forum.

618
00:25:36,304 --> 00:25:38,304
You would like to speak to us.

619
00:25:38,304 --> 00:25:40,113
Do you think?

620
00:25:40,935 --> 00:25:42,935
First of all, I'd like to thank

621
00:25:42,935 --> 00:25:44,785
T. J. and Shamrock and

622
00:25:44,785 --> 00:25:46,955
Ryan. And everybody who was like

623
00:25:46,955 --> 00:25:48,955
painting and cleaning up

624
00:25:48,955 --> 00:25:50,890
Fox Run.

625
00:25:50,890 --> 00:25:52,890
It looks fabulous. The sign

626
00:25:52,890 --> 00:25:55,061
is great. I love so the light on it

627
00:25:55,061 --> 00:25:57,336
at night so we can see or come to the Village.

628
00:25:57,336 --> 00:25:58,759
But that's okay.

629
00:25:58,759 --> 00:26:00,759
You can always have a dream list.

630
00:26:00,759 --> 00:26:03,001
It looks flashy. It looks

631
00:26:03,001 --> 00:26:05,979
dark. That stone top on it.

632
00:26:05,979 --> 00:26:07,973
Then we have this thing about the house and thank

633
00:26:07,979 --> 00:26:09,979
Leo for sticking up for me, because

634
00:26:09,979 --> 00:26:11,979
it's been quite a fight to get something

635
00:26:11,979 --> 00:26:13,979
nice out there.

636
00:26:13,979 --> 00:26:15,894
Second, I'd like to

637
00:26:15,894 --> 00:26:18,104
thank Ryan and

638
00:26:18,104 --> 00:26:20,241
Shamrock for filling

639
00:26:20,241 --> 00:26:22,484
in our sidewalk out to

640
00:26:22,484 --> 00:26:24,647
Route 57.

641
00:26:24,973 --> 00:26:26,973
I've seen bicycles. I've seen

642
00:26:26,973 --> 00:26:29,182
kids. I've seen wheelchairs. I've seen

643
00:26:29,182 --> 00:26:31,378
walkers. Even come out

644
00:26:31,378 --> 00:26:33,365
over the back. They can get from

645
00:26:33,378 --> 00:26:35,450
that little cacoon

646
00:26:35,450 --> 00:26:37,665
of Fox Run out

647
00:26:37,665 --> 00:26:39,665
to the street.

648
00:26:39,665 --> 00:26:41,665
Speaking of getting out to the street,

649
00:26:41,665 --> 00:26:43,665
at some point, we

650
00:26:43,665 --> 00:26:46,766
maybe, Chief, someone could help us

651
00:26:46,766 --> 00:26:49,127
look if we need a light there. Because

652
00:26:49,127 --> 00:26:51,127
the people are going 50 miles

653
00:26:51,127 --> 00:26:53,101
per hour. I try to pull out.

654
00:26:53,101 --> 00:26:55,101
Not that I can't go fast. But

655
00:26:55,101 --> 00:26:57,160
you know it's very dangerous

656
00:26:57,160 --> 00:26:59,097
and it's hard to see because

657
00:26:59,101 --> 00:27:00,983
I spend a lot of time.

658
00:27:00,983 --> 00:27:02,774
A Ryan sign.

659
00:27:02,774 --> 00:27:04,774
Flags flying and I'm trying to

660
00:27:04,774 --> 00:27:06,774
find out if a truck is coming

661
00:27:06,774 --> 00:27:08,774
south on 57.

662
00:27:08,774 --> 00:27:11,476
It's hard to pull out of the development now.

663
00:27:12,037 --> 00:27:14,265
Another thing is we need speed signs

664
00:27:14,265 --> 00:27:16,672
within the development, because

665
00:27:16,842 --> 00:27:18,842
I don't know who made it a raceway,

666
00:27:18,842 --> 00:27:20,737
but it is insane

667
00:27:20,737 --> 00:27:22,953
how fast the cars are driving.

668
00:27:22,953 --> 00:27:24,953
Because I've met a lot of new people

669
00:27:24,953 --> 00:27:26,953
because I've been there from the beginning.

670
00:27:26,953 --> 00:27:29,220
The second thing

671
00:27:29,651 --> 00:27:31,848
I'd like to mention

672
00:27:31,848 --> 00:27:34,170
about Dollar General. I

673
00:27:34,927 --> 00:27:36,934
knew I'm finding more bad news

674
00:27:36,934 --> 00:27:39,072
from the district manager. And I made

675
00:27:39,072 --> 00:27:41,072
a call and said, that

676
00:27:41,072 --> 00:27:43,380
the building's a bad reflection on our village.

677
00:27:43,380 --> 00:27:45,869
And as a resident, I totally

678
00:27:45,869 --> 00:27:48,006
object to the way

679
00:27:48,326 --> 00:27:50,516
this hole is being

680
00:27:50,516 --> 00:27:52,949
ignored. I said, well a favor on these

681
00:27:52,949 --> 00:27:54,949
street, that's a blank property.

682
00:27:55,249 --> 00:27:57,249
You're going to have a lawsuit up your

683
00:27:57,249 --> 00:28:00,096
rear. Because someone's going to hit that

684
00:28:00,390 --> 00:28:02,482
and their bumper's going to fall off. Or,

685
00:28:02,482 --> 00:28:04,699
their muffler's going to fall off. Or,

686
00:28:04,914 --> 00:28:07,439
they'll try to exit to go

687
00:28:07,439 --> 00:28:09,975
north. You have to go into the

688
00:28:09,975 --> 00:28:11,896
kind of like that. It's just a very

689
00:28:11,896 --> 00:28:13,896
dangerous situation. They said,

690
00:28:13,896 --> 00:28:16,372
we'll take it up. "They dropped it."

691
00:28:16,959 --> 00:28:19,123
And lastly as a resident

692
00:28:19,814 --> 00:28:21,809
and I've had people get robbed, too.

693
00:28:21,814 --> 00:28:23,814
Call Dollar General.

694
00:28:23,814 --> 00:28:25,814
Don't tell me that was the store.

695
00:28:25,814 --> 00:28:28,010
Tell somebody who can fix it.

696
00:28:28,701 --> 00:28:31,067
And lastly, the election is

697
00:28:31,067 --> 00:28:33,323
approaching. It was a very accepted

698
00:28:33,538 --> 00:28:35,538
slander and

699
00:28:35,538 --> 00:28:37,387
false accusations. And bringing up

700
00:28:37,387 --> 00:28:39,387
and faking pictures of people

701
00:28:39,387 --> 00:28:41,669
in their past. I don't want

702
00:28:41,669 --> 00:28:43,812
the Chronicle or Facebook

703
00:28:44,256 --> 00:28:46,629
to be commeeting and I don't.

704
00:28:46,629 --> 00:28:48,785
We had one, Martha

705
00:28:48,799 --> 00:28:50,988
M... was running for mayor in '19.

706
00:28:50,995 --> 00:28:53,034
It was just horrible

707
00:28:53,034 --> 00:28:54,799
cross letters about.

708
00:28:54,799 --> 00:28:56,794
Let's just have based on what

709
00:28:56,799 --> 00:28:58,799
they can do for the Village and who you

710
00:28:58,799 --> 00:29:00,799
are today. Address

711
00:29:00,799 --> 00:29:03,562
that a woman part of the system. That's the thing

712
00:29:03,562 --> 00:29:05,829
we want, without all these influences

713
00:29:05,829 --> 00:29:07,829
and childish behavior.

714
00:29:07,829 --> 00:29:09,829
On social media and to

715
00:29:09,829 --> 00:29:11,979
the media about

716
00:29:11,979 --> 00:29:14,267
the great candidates of patriots

717
00:29:14,267 --> 00:29:16,860
who have run. That's it. Three minutes.

718
00:29:17,412 --> 00:29:18,860
I'm done.

719
00:29:19,624 --> 00:29:21,624
That was that.

720
00:29:22,009 --> 00:29:23,849
I'll let it slide.

721
00:29:27,789 --> 00:29:29,789
I'm sure she didn't mean to put me down.

722
00:29:30,676 --> 00:29:32,676
Okay, thank you.

723
00:29:34,431 --> 00:29:36,431
The last meeting I was kind of embarrassed.

724
00:29:37,312 --> 00:29:39,234
The way the meeting went

725
00:29:39,234 --> 00:29:41,138
about the kind of procedures we have

726
00:29:41,138 --> 00:29:43,138
threw out the window. And

727
00:29:43,927 --> 00:29:45,927
people were talking out of turn.

728
00:29:45,927 --> 00:29:48,781
And it just looked really bad.

729
00:29:48,990 --> 00:29:51,304
And I don't know how it looks on camera.

730
00:29:51,304 --> 00:29:53,304
But just sitting here

731
00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:55,800
it just seemed that this

732
00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:57,800
cannot reflect well on the Village.

733
00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:02,240
You getting back to Robert's Rules. "Yes."

734
00:30:02,475 --> 00:30:04,475
I understand.

735
00:30:05,773 --> 00:30:07,773
And then we have Marcy Sterling.

736
00:30:09,076 --> 00:30:10,641
Turn on the mike.

737
00:30:10,641 --> 00:30:12,464
Just, I

738
00:30:12,464 --> 00:30:14,640
got all my permits that you

739
00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:17,841
favor the straight on the timeframe.

740
00:30:18,343 --> 00:30:20,343
I think our port's up.

741
00:30:21,406 --> 00:30:23,623
I put it in there to be three foot off

742
00:30:24,625 --> 00:30:26,118
the line.

743
00:30:26,118 --> 00:30:28,118
It came back that it has to be fixed.

744
00:30:28,725 --> 00:30:30,725
That garage has been there longer

745
00:30:30,725 --> 00:30:32,725
than I've been alive.

746
00:30:32,862 --> 00:30:35,221
Could it not be grandfathered in?

747
00:30:35,221 --> 00:30:37,332
The neighbor has no problem with it.

748
00:30:38,350 --> 00:30:40,514
Just trying to figure out what my next

749
00:30:40,514 --> 00:30:42,462
step is in our county.

750
00:30:42,462 --> 00:30:44,810
I can really, really say that.

751
00:30:45,625 --> 00:30:47,867
My neighbors agreed, no problem.

752
00:30:47,997 --> 00:30:49,997
It's been there. We've been there.

753
00:30:50,623 --> 00:30:52,623
It's not an issue on that side.

754
00:30:56,511 --> 00:30:58,524
I don't know what my next step's going to

755
00:30:58,524 --> 00:31:01,023
be. "Just lay it out and say, here."

756
00:31:01,023 --> 00:31:03,271
We already did that. Ma'am, if you wouldn't mind

757
00:31:03,271 --> 00:31:05,363
getting with me after the meeting. We'll

758
00:31:05,363 --> 00:31:07,737
loop in our inspector for residential.

759
00:31:07,737 --> 00:31:09,737
We'll find a path forward. "Okay."

760
00:31:09,737 --> 00:31:11,737
Perfect. ...

761
00:31:11,737 --> 00:31:13,232
Yes, sir?

762
00:31:13,232 --> 00:31:15,716
We've got another board that can grant variances.

763
00:31:18,019 --> 00:31:20,695
She needs to come when we have the variances.

764
00:31:21,073 --> 00:31:23,073
She can explain the situation there.

765
00:31:23,073 --> 00:31:25,165
That group is supposed to decide if

766
00:31:25,165 --> 00:31:27,165
you get a variance or not. "Yes."

767
00:31:27,165 --> 00:31:29,165
That's why we have these two

768
00:31:29,165 --> 00:31:31,257
different groups there. "That is correct."

769
00:31:31,257 --> 00:31:33,257
Correct councilman. I think when we have the

770
00:31:33,257 --> 00:31:35,257
conversation with that building inspector, we

771
00:31:35,257 --> 00:31:37,257
can make the documentation that meets those

772
00:31:37,257 --> 00:31:39,185
needs. I think that's a good question, actually.

773
00:31:39,185 --> 00:31:41,185
That's what that body is for.

774
00:31:41,185 --> 00:31:42,871
For the citizens.

775
00:31:42,871 --> 00:31:44,871
Elyria has public awareness. It's kind of like a

776
00:31:44,871 --> 00:31:47,133
waiver. It's an exception. If they believe that

777
00:31:47,133 --> 00:31:49,133
it's something that would not be typically allowed.

778
00:31:49,133 --> 00:31:51,133
Yes, ma'am, we can explore the variance.

779
00:31:51,133 --> 00:31:53,133
That's a very good point. Thank you Councilman

780
00:31:53,133 --> 00:31:55,133
Strah for pointing that out. "Thank you."

781
00:31:55,133 --> 00:31:57,133
I appreciate that. "You're welcome."

782
00:31:58,092 --> 00:32:00,092
Joe. Where did you go?

783
00:32:00,092 --> 00:32:02,083
Over here. I'm going to measure

784
00:32:02,092 --> 00:32:03,876
your last name on the Sun Times.

785
00:32:03,876 --> 00:32:05,817
Surrender. "Yeah, I hear you"

786
00:32:05,817 --> 00:32:07,817
Actually a 'p' and 't' and a ...

787
00:32:07,817 --> 00:32:09,817
I already messed it up.

788
00:32:09,817 --> 00:32:11,464
All right, Joe.

789
00:32:11,464 --> 00:32:13,464
Actually, I had a queston that was about the

790
00:32:13,464 --> 00:32:15,464
the veteran's memorial.

791
00:32:15,464 --> 00:32:17,464
And the grant to

792
00:32:17,464 --> 00:32:19,464
put the improvements in. But Mr. Lipian

793
00:32:19,464 --> 00:32:21,464
answered already.

794
00:32:21,464 --> 00:32:22,959
So.

795
00:32:22,959 --> 00:32:24,959
Lucky for everybody here, you don't have

796
00:32:24,959 --> 00:32:27,207
to hear me talk tonight.

797
00:32:28,733 --> 00:32:30,733
Thank you. "You're welcome."

798
00:32:32,253 --> 00:32:34,253
And then we have Mike Gumm.

799
00:32:35,642 --> 00:32:37,642
So.

800
00:32:37,642 --> 00:32:39,642
The dog park, Hound Hollow.

801
00:32:39,642 --> 00:32:42,502
had. We added a couple of new

802
00:32:43,122 --> 00:32:45,520
members to the board: Doug Merrill.

803
00:32:45,781 --> 00:32:48,605
and Kyle ...

804
00:32:48,605 --> 00:32:50,605
And then

805
00:32:50,605 --> 00:32:52,815
we're having a Chili Cook Off come November

806
00:32:52,815 --> 00:32:55,168
1st. At the VFW it will happen

807
00:32:55,168 --> 00:32:57,588
and everybody is invited.

808
00:33:00,086 --> 00:33:02,086
So, we were wondering about,

809
00:33:02,086 --> 00:33:04,086
we still get quite a few people

810
00:33:04,086 --> 00:33:06,086
even within the town

811
00:33:06,086 --> 00:33:08,498
that did not know

812
00:33:08,498 --> 00:33:10,498
there's a dog park.

813
00:33:10,498 --> 00:33:13,034
And we noticed that there's

814
00:33:13,451 --> 00:33:15,575
two different spots on the signs

815
00:33:15,575 --> 00:33:17,575
out at North Park.

816
00:33:17,575 --> 00:33:19,575
Have the signs

817
00:33:19,575 --> 00:33:21,927
on Elm and on Novak.

818
00:33:22,331 --> 00:33:24,331
Two different spots that have openings.

819
00:33:24,585 --> 00:33:26,859
We were wondering about getting some signage

820
00:33:27,172 --> 00:33:29,172
on those signs for.

821
00:33:29,276 --> 00:33:31,276
And you might want to for the Splash Pad

822
00:33:31,276 --> 00:33:33,374
as well. I don't know if you want to do that. But.

823
00:33:33,824 --> 00:33:35,824
About having some signs

824
00:33:35,824 --> 00:33:37,824
on the North Park signs

825
00:33:37,824 --> 00:33:39,967
for Hound Hollow Dog Park there.

826
00:33:41,741 --> 00:33:43,905
Well, that's a good idea. If you drew something

827
00:33:43,905 --> 00:33:45,905
up and gave us the specs for it.

828
00:33:46,159 --> 00:33:48,159
Is that right, guys?

829
00:33:48,942 --> 00:33:51,177
I was just wondering if I have to go to approve

830
00:33:51,177 --> 00:33:53,177
it because it's a small sign

831
00:33:53,177 --> 00:33:55,177
from happening. "Yeah."

832
00:33:56,449 --> 00:33:58,449
What size of sign were you looking at then?

833
00:33:58,449 --> 00:34:00,136
It's what.

834
00:34:00,136 --> 00:34:02,136
They're already there, obviously.

835
00:34:02,136 --> 00:34:04,561
It's, we want it to fit in that.

836
00:34:05,129 --> 00:34:07,129
Like the one behind it.

837
00:34:07,683 --> 00:34:10,542
They're on the sign for North Park.

838
00:34:10,542 --> 00:34:12,915
They're not that big. "Yeah, they're on the."

839
00:34:12,915 --> 00:34:14,994
Well, you may request it, I'm sure.

840
00:34:15,209 --> 00:34:17,353
To align the sucker from the other cues.

841
00:34:18,051 --> 00:34:20,051
Thank you. "Maybe you got this thing."

842
00:34:22,784 --> 00:34:24,784
Then when you're driving through.

843
00:34:27,185 --> 00:34:29,374
Why can't we put it in our newsletter?

844
00:34:29,712 --> 00:34:31,426
We can. "Okay."

845
00:34:33,037 --> 00:34:35,109
The current batch is already going

846
00:34:35,109 --> 00:34:37,456
to press. But we can get it on the next one.

847
00:34:38,069 --> 00:34:40,069
All right. Can I proofread it

848
00:34:40,069 --> 00:34:41,965
before it goes out? "Always."

849
00:34:41,965 --> 00:34:43,965
All right. "Just make a records request."

850
00:34:43,965 --> 00:34:46,390
Just go inside his app. "It'd be cool, again."

851
00:34:47,577 --> 00:34:49,577
Mr. Greiner, you're getting out of order.

852
00:34:49,577 --> 00:34:51,577
Well, I held my hand up.

853
00:34:51,871 --> 00:34:53,871
Go ahead. "I think we got this."

854
00:34:53,871 --> 00:34:56,337
Richard Guyeska. "Actually, I think I'm going to"

855
00:34:56,337 --> 00:34:58,337
save mine until next council meeting.

856
00:34:58,337 --> 00:35:00,337
When it's more relevant to the election.

857
00:35:01,570 --> 00:35:03,570
Fair enough.

858
00:35:07,262 --> 00:35:09,615
We're done with members of the public. So.

859
00:35:10,796 --> 00:35:12,796
It has been brought to my attention that

860
00:35:12,796 --> 00:35:15,561
we only have two members of Planning.

861
00:35:16,937 --> 00:35:18,937
We actually had four. "Four."

862
00:35:18,937 --> 00:35:21,672
The mayor's. "I'm on it." Oh.

863
00:35:21,972 --> 00:35:24,103
Okay. So that'd be an ordinance then?

864
00:35:24,103 --> 00:35:26,215
So we had three votes. Gave them. "Yes."

865
00:35:27,344 --> 00:35:29,344
Just wanted to check that and to see.

866
00:35:30,185 --> 00:35:32,408
I made sure we were doing it lawfully.

867
00:35:34,704 --> 00:35:36,704
Ordinances.

868
00:35:37,180 --> 00:35:39,180
Third reading of Ordinance 25

869
00:35:39,180 --> 00:35:41,180
-012

870
00:35:41,180 --> 00:35:43,180
Designating State Route 57

871
00:35:43,180 --> 00:35:45,180
Overlay District and Downtown Overlay

872
00:35:45,180 --> 00:35:47,180
District as the

873
00:35:47,180 --> 00:35:49,180
official Historic District

874
00:35:49,180 --> 00:35:51,180
for the Village of Grafton and

875
00:35:51,180 --> 00:35:53,180
declaring an emergency. That's our third

876
00:35:53,180 --> 00:35:55,180
reading. I don't know if we need

877
00:35:55,180 --> 00:35:57,010
to declare an emergency. "Mr. Mayor."

878
00:35:57,010 --> 00:35:59,010
Yes, sir? "Andrew's going to comment on it."

879
00:35:59,010 --> 00:36:00,775
Why the ordinance is there.

880
00:36:00,775 --> 00:36:02,775
I'm going to come out looking good?

881
00:36:04,569 --> 00:36:06,569
Thanks.

882
00:36:09,432 --> 00:36:11,641
So, with the downtown development district.

883
00:36:11,641 --> 00:36:13,739
It all comes down to this. It's a smart

884
00:36:13,739 --> 00:36:16,091
local tool for refurbishing our historic flavor.

885
00:36:17,206 --> 00:36:19,206
This weds nicely with the Route 57

886
00:36:19,206 --> 00:36:22,093
Overlay and Downtown Overlay District.

887
00:36:22,093 --> 00:36:24,178
In the following way. It's compicated. We're

888
00:36:24,178 --> 00:36:26,178
talkng about three different districts and how

889
00:36:26,178 --> 00:36:28,178
they overlap.

890
00:36:29,333 --> 00:36:31,418
The way that it works is if

891
00:36:31,418 --> 00:36:33,418
the Route 57 Overlay District was just

892
00:36:33,418 --> 00:36:35,418
restrictions on what kind of building

893
00:36:35,418 --> 00:36:37,418
you can seek and make with the district.

894
00:36:37,418 --> 00:36:39,418
You have a historic overlay district that's

895
00:36:39,418 --> 00:36:41,822
intended to preserve the historic character

896
00:36:42,233 --> 00:36:44,435
of those ...

897
00:36:44,996 --> 00:36:46,996
The downtown development district

898
00:36:46,996 --> 00:36:48,996
you will have incentives

899
00:36:49,309 --> 00:36:51,492
towards rehabbing historic buildings

900
00:36:51,492 --> 00:36:53,590
within those restrictions from those other

901
00:36:53,590 --> 00:36:55,590
overlays. That makes sense. So we have

902
00:36:56,171 --> 00:36:58,171
57 Overlay and

903
00:36:58,171 --> 00:37:00,427
a downtown overlay as restriction

904
00:37:00,427 --> 00:37:02,355
and guidelines of what can go there.

905
00:37:02,355 --> 00:37:04,852
Then we have the historic development district

906
00:37:04,852 --> 00:37:06,852
which gives incentives for making

907
00:37:06,852 --> 00:37:08,852
improvements in those boundaries.

908
00:37:08,852 --> 00:37:10,852
I hope that clarifies this.

909
00:37:11,230 --> 00:37:13,230
The way that it works is, the 70

910
00:37:13,230 --> 00:37:16,050
percent increments on the increase

911
00:37:16,050 --> 00:37:18,050
of the property value.

912
00:37:18,050 --> 00:37:20,050
It's a 70% increase

913
00:37:20,383 --> 00:37:22,383
on the property value

914
00:37:23,453 --> 00:37:25,453
from the, from the improvement.

915
00:37:25,610 --> 00:37:28,166
So, I have a one dollar property

916
00:37:28,166 --> 00:37:29,884
and make an improvement

917
00:37:29,884 --> 00:37:31,773
that's worth two dollars.

918
00:37:31,773 --> 00:37:33,858
We take 70% of that two dollars

919
00:37:33,858 --> 00:37:35,858
and that gets redirected to a fund.

920
00:37:35,858 --> 00:37:37,858
That the village may use to support

921
00:37:37,858 --> 00:37:39,858
development for historic rehab

922
00:37:39,858 --> 00:37:41,512
or creating purchases.

923
00:37:41,512 --> 00:37:43,447
30% of that

924
00:37:43,447 --> 00:37:45,349
increase, or the increment

925
00:37:45,349 --> 00:37:47,983
goes to the property tax collected goes normally.

926
00:37:48,303 --> 00:37:50,303
It can go for up to the

927
00:37:50,303 --> 00:37:52,694
complete lifespan of the downtown development

928
00:37:52,694 --> 00:37:54,694
district that Grafton will have the authority to

929
00:37:54,694 --> 00:37:57,278
determine on a case by case basis.

930
00:37:57,983 --> 00:38:00,251
The owner can also declare a federal

931
00:38:00,251 --> 00:38:02,179
deferred tax benefit for the 20%

932
00:38:02,179 --> 00:38:04,678
and Ohio's deferred preservation tax credit.

933
00:38:05,572 --> 00:38:07,572
It's a match for the 10 acres provided

934
00:38:07,572 --> 00:38:09,500
connected to the historic building

935
00:38:09,500 --> 00:38:11,500
which is covered by the

936
00:38:11,500 --> 00:38:13,644
the Historic Overlay District which we approved

937
00:38:13,644 --> 00:38:15,454
in our Zoning. Because we did that,

938
00:38:15,454 --> 00:38:18,023
thankfully, Council was able to get that.

939
00:38:19,132 --> 00:38:21,464
We can have this historic redevelopment

940
00:38:21,464 --> 00:38:23,464
district within those boundaries covering

941
00:38:23,464 --> 00:38:26,146
the whole overlay district with downtown.

942
00:38:27,875 --> 00:38:30,228
All of that is to say, again, smart tool

943
00:38:30,228 --> 00:38:32,306
for refurbishing our historic flavor.

944
00:38:32,397 --> 00:38:33,966
And it's up for Council's final

945
00:38:33,966 --> 00:38:35,593
consideration today.

946
00:38:46,650 --> 00:38:48,650
Council, what saith thou?

947
00:38:49,204 --> 00:38:51,204
So moved.

948
00:38:51,204 --> 00:38:53,603
Second. "All in Favor?"

949
00:38:53,603 --> 00:38:55,603
Aye. "Opposed?"

950
00:38:57,651 --> 00:39:00,465
Ordinance 25-013

951
00:39:00,909 --> 00:39:04,864
Approving the sale of 36.84 acres of land

952
00:39:05,249 --> 00:39:07,249
and declaring an emergency.

953
00:39:11,130 --> 00:39:13,130
Did they talk about it?

954
00:39:13,365 --> 00:39:15,965
No, I had somebody. "I'd just indicate that"

955
00:39:15,965 --> 00:39:18,246
the Village put this in the

956
00:39:18,246 --> 00:39:20,305
newspaper. Bid it out for five weeks.

957
00:39:20,305 --> 00:39:23,703
No bid came in but the

958
00:39:24,342 --> 00:39:27,090
Conservation bid was $200,000. So.

959
00:39:27,736 --> 00:39:29,736
That was the only bid

960
00:39:29,736 --> 00:39:31,671
on this property.

961
00:39:31,671 --> 00:39:33,769
I think in the past they offered $175,000.

962
00:39:33,769 --> 00:39:35,997
Between $175,000 and $185,000.

963
00:39:35,997 --> 00:39:38,291
Pardon? "$225,000 was their last bid.'

964
00:39:38,291 --> 00:39:40,291
Okay. Now, it's up to

965
00:39:40,291 --> 00:39:42,291
accepting and the.

966
00:39:43,596 --> 00:39:45,596
By this Council to accept that bid.

967
00:39:45,596 --> 00:39:47,596
Selling the property.

968
00:39:50,381 --> 00:39:52,381
Motion to suspend the rules.

969
00:39:52,381 --> 00:39:54,381
Second.

970
00:39:54,381 --> 00:39:56,381
All in favor? "Aye."

971
00:39:56,381 --> 00:39:58,381
Opposed? "Aye."

972
00:39:59,092 --> 00:40:01,939
Motion to pass 25-013.

973
00:40:01,939 --> 00:40:03,612
Second.

974
00:40:04,297 --> 00:40:06,297
All in favor? "Aye."

975
00:40:07,341 --> 00:40:09,341
Opposed? "Aye."

976
00:40:11,526 --> 00:40:14,405
Ordinance 25-014

977
00:40:14,829 --> 00:40:16,829
Approving the contract with Lorain County

978
00:40:16,829 --> 00:40:19,012
Rural Wastewater District

979
00:40:19,547 --> 00:40:22,355
to provide disposal of wastewater

980
00:40:23,046 --> 00:40:25,046
and treatment for Fidler's Green

981
00:40:25,757 --> 00:40:27,947
Phase IV and declaring an emergency.

982
00:40:29,108 --> 00:40:31,430
Mayor, may I comment of this as well?

983
00:40:34,215 --> 00:40:36,215
A piece of history.

984
00:40:36,215 --> 00:40:38,287
This is a piece of property

985
00:40:38,287 --> 00:40:41,319
that the Village had to annex from Eaton

986
00:40:41,776 --> 00:40:43,776
and went through litigation

987
00:40:43,778 --> 00:40:45,776
from your old law director.

988
00:40:47,126 --> 00:40:49,648
And ultimately

989
00:40:49,648 --> 00:40:51,733
the Village won. But

990
00:40:51,733 --> 00:40:53,779
one of them required to buy out the

991
00:40:53,779 --> 00:40:55,582
new annexed group owner.

992
00:40:55,582 --> 00:40:57,862
The solution that the developer

993
00:40:57,862 --> 00:40:59,298
and Council.

994
00:40:59,298 --> 00:41:01,357
What you came up with is.

995
00:41:03,516 --> 00:41:05,516
Well, that we'll

996
00:41:06,416 --> 00:41:09,009
solve the wastewater

997
00:41:09,126 --> 00:41:11,126
and then we'll build our plant. And we'll just

998
00:41:11,126 --> 00:41:13,080
flip the key.

999
00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:14,976
I would point out that

1000
00:41:14,976 --> 00:41:16,976
there is one discrepancy

1001
00:41:16,976 --> 00:41:18,976
in the contract over

1002
00:41:18,976 --> 00:41:20,976
what the dollar amount is

1003
00:41:20,976 --> 00:41:22,976
for their share.

1004
00:41:22,976 --> 00:41:24,976
Having the contract's

1005
00:41:24,976 --> 00:41:26,976
$6 dollars, 90 cents.

1006
00:41:26,976 --> 00:41:28,780
LORCO is insisting,

1007
00:41:28,780 --> 00:41:30,780
welll it's only $4.61.

1008
00:41:30,780 --> 00:41:32,780
However,

1009
00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:35,080
starting the first thing, I believe was

1010
00:41:35,080 --> 00:41:37,492
$7.11. Which they're fine with.

1011
00:41:39,501 --> 00:41:41,501
That discrepancy is inconsequential

1012
00:41:41,501 --> 00:41:43,501
to this Phase IV

1013
00:41:43,501 --> 00:41:45,501
because they're not even going to break ground

1014
00:41:45,501 --> 00:41:47,670
until this is negotiated and settled.

1015
00:41:48,440 --> 00:41:50,440
They were okay with the way the contract

1016
00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:52,440
is insignificant.

1017
00:41:53,373 --> 00:41:55,739
I'm asking council to pass this so we

1018
00:41:55,739 --> 00:41:57,993
can tell them they can go ahead start this project.

1019
00:41:58,743 --> 00:42:00,971
What about tap connections?

1020
00:42:00,971 --> 00:42:02,971
Who gets those fees?

1021
00:42:02,971 --> 00:42:05,233
The connection? "I don't know. Eaton."

1022
00:42:05,996 --> 00:42:07,996
I believe it's worth it.

1023
00:42:09,372 --> 00:42:11,372
Well, if all we're

1024
00:42:11,372 --> 00:42:13,372
doing is taking

1025
00:42:13,372 --> 00:42:16,056
the refuse and treating it.

1026
00:42:16,813 --> 00:42:18,813
Usually the tap fee

1027
00:42:18,813 --> 00:42:20,780
goes to the Sewer department for the

1028
00:42:20,780 --> 00:42:22,773
... if they feed

1029
00:42:22,780 --> 00:42:24,551
just the department.

1030
00:42:24,551 --> 00:42:26,551
And usually the tap fee

1031
00:42:26,551 --> 00:42:28,551
is for

1032
00:42:28,858 --> 00:42:31,035
future expenses for

1033
00:42:31,798 --> 00:42:33,798
repairs and things like

1034
00:42:33,798 --> 00:42:36,146
that lift station,

1035
00:42:36,146 --> 00:42:38,146
pumps and different things like that.

1036
00:42:38,146 --> 00:42:39,958
Tonight we're going to approve,

1037
00:42:39,958 --> 00:42:41,682
in a while, probably

1038
00:42:41,682 --> 00:42:44,008
UV lights for the Sewer Department.

1039
00:42:44,008 --> 00:42:46,008
At $33,000 dollars

1040
00:42:46,008 --> 00:42:48,008
plus tax.

1041
00:42:48,008 --> 00:42:50,008
Now

1042
00:42:50,008 --> 00:42:51,929
I don't have a problem splitting this

1043
00:42:51,929 --> 00:42:53,929
tap fee with LORCO.

1044
00:42:54,562 --> 00:42:56,562
That's where I'm at.

1045
00:42:56,562 --> 00:42:58,562
Because we have to have something other

1046
00:42:58,562 --> 00:43:00,398
than just

1047
00:43:00,868 --> 00:43:02,868
the revenue from doing

1048
00:43:03,716 --> 00:43:05,716
...

1049
00:43:05,957 --> 00:43:07,957
That's where I stand with it.

1050
00:43:08,381 --> 00:43:10,584
Because I'm sure their tap fee is a lot more

1051
00:43:10,584 --> 00:43:12,167
than ours.

1052
00:43:12,167 --> 00:43:14,167
Well, we have room

1053
00:43:14,167 --> 00:43:16,167
We can't plausibly

1054
00:43:16,167 --> 00:43:19,451
share the tap in fees with them. I can tell you.

1055
00:43:19,451 --> 00:43:21,327
I know. It says, it says

1056
00:43:21,327 --> 00:43:23,255
they get 100% of it.

1057
00:43:23,255 --> 00:43:25,399
Which. "We need to the progress." Split it.

1058
00:43:25,399 --> 00:43:27,504
Fifty percent of the tap,

1059
00:43:27,504 --> 00:43:29,504
50% of their tap fee.

1060
00:43:29,856 --> 00:43:31,856
That they're going to charge the builder.

1061
00:43:33,689 --> 00:43:35,689
Then I recommend that we send this to a

1062
00:43:35,689 --> 00:43:37,689
second reading until I can talk to their counsel.

1063
00:43:37,689 --> 00:43:39,801
I'm just. Maybe I'm wrong.

1064
00:43:39,801 --> 00:43:41,801
If I'm wrong, you know

1065
00:43:41,801 --> 00:43:43,932
you can overrule. But to me

1066
00:43:43,932 --> 00:43:46,610
that's, that's fair and equitable.

1067
00:43:46,610 --> 00:43:48,610
Because we're going to absorb

1068
00:43:48,610 --> 00:43:50,610
any maintenance cost and anything else down

1069
00:43:50,610 --> 00:43:52,538
the line.

1070
00:43:52,538 --> 00:43:54,492
And I understand that

1071
00:43:54,492 --> 00:43:56,905
the fee is going to be

1072
00:43:57,205 --> 00:43:59,558
$7.11 for a thousand gallons.

1073
00:44:00,641 --> 00:44:03,037
And I don't know what the projection would be

1074
00:44:03,037 --> 00:44:05,037
for a 60 houses.

1075
00:44:05,037 --> 00:44:06,893
Forty houses.

1076
00:44:06,893 --> 00:44:08,893
What the average consumption.

1077
00:44:08,893 --> 00:44:10,972
The average usage. I have no idea.

1078
00:44:11,285 --> 00:44:13,285
So I don't know where that dollar amount

1079
00:44:13,396 --> 00:44:15,396
goes out, when it goes into the

1080
00:44:15,396 --> 00:44:17,193
operating fund of the

1081
00:44:17,193 --> 00:44:19,193
utili, the sewer plant.

1082
00:44:19,193 --> 00:44:20,958
But, if

1083
00:44:21,082 --> 00:44:23,318
50/50 seems good to me.

1084
00:44:24,512 --> 00:44:26,512
You know.

1085
00:44:26,766 --> 00:44:28,766
I'm just throwing it out there.

1086
00:44:28,766 --> 00:44:30,766
I mean I, I.

1087
00:44:31,790 --> 00:44:33,790
We've got to have a little.

1088
00:44:33,790 --> 00:44:35,790
They got to have a little skin in the game.

1089
00:44:35,790 --> 00:44:38,163
For a lack of. I'm saying.

1090
00:44:38,212 --> 00:44:40,497
What service do you provide for that 50%?

1091
00:44:40,849 --> 00:44:42,849
Excuse me?

1092
00:44:42,849 --> 00:44:44,849
You're out.

1093
00:44:46,728 --> 00:44:48,728
I'm just saying, that 50% that.

1094
00:44:48,728 --> 00:44:50,826
Yeah, you're just saying. "Could be a"

1095
00:44:50,826 --> 00:44:53,436
quarter million dollars. Or, $200,000. Or,

1096
00:44:53,436 --> 00:44:55,436
whatever. It's an amount that would go

1097
00:44:55,436 --> 00:44:57,436
into the Sewer Fund

1098
00:44:57,436 --> 00:44:59,338
for maintenance. Not capital

1099
00:44:59,338 --> 00:45:01,614
but for maintenance. And ongoing for

1100
00:45:01,614 --> 00:45:04,301
chemicals. Chemicals are not getting cheaper.

1101
00:45:04,686 --> 00:45:06,686
Down the line.

1102
00:45:06,686 --> 00:45:08,686
You know I know that's all reflected in the

1103
00:45:08,686 --> 00:45:10,686
$7.11. But.

1104
00:45:11,227 --> 00:45:13,227
I'm just. I'm just throwing it out there.

1105
00:45:13,227 --> 00:45:15,227
Council, if you're comfortable with that, we

1106
00:45:15,227 --> 00:45:16,725
need a motion.

1107
00:45:16,725 --> 00:45:19,018
We go ahead, carry it over to a second reading.

1108
00:45:19,018 --> 00:45:21,018
We don't need a moton. We just read it.

1109
00:45:21,018 --> 00:45:23,018
Just read it? "Yeah." All right.

1110
00:45:24,114 --> 00:45:26,114
And I'm sorry. And then

1111
00:45:26,114 --> 00:45:27,958
the other one of

1112
00:45:27,958 --> 00:45:29,834
this your one way.

1113
00:45:29,834 --> 00:45:32,050
Is Ordinance 25-015.

1114
00:45:32,050 --> 00:45:34,050
And that's the land transfer

1115
00:45:35,368 --> 00:45:37,368
for the library.

1116
00:45:37,368 --> 00:45:39,368
Well, we addressed it earlier.

1117
00:45:39,368 --> 00:45:40,843
Right.

1118
00:45:40,843 --> 00:45:42,843
It appears that

1119
00:45:43,274 --> 00:45:45,274
we need to have a reversion clause in there.

1120
00:45:45,274 --> 00:45:47,313
The tap in there it was twenty some to move.

1121
00:45:47,332 --> 00:45:49,392
To have somebody on Council move to suspend

1122
00:45:49,392 --> 00:45:51,392
and to second the move.

1123
00:46:03,264 --> 00:46:05,264
You need a motion for that?

1124
00:46:05,727 --> 00:46:07,727
Well, we're doing the second reading

1125
00:46:07,727 --> 00:46:10,305
to Ordinance 25-015

1126
00:46:10,305 --> 00:46:12,489
approving the transfer of land to Midview

1127
00:46:12,489 --> 00:46:14,489
Public Library. And that's where we'll

1128
00:46:14,489 --> 00:46:16,489
want the town with us. "Right."

1129
00:46:16,489 --> 00:46:18,489
That's the second reading.

1130
00:46:20,426 --> 00:46:22,426
So that's automatic. We'll go into a second

1131
00:46:22,426 --> 00:46:24,793
reading next meeting then.

1132
00:46:24,793 --> 00:46:26,513
So, that should change. "No."

1133
00:46:26,513 --> 00:46:28,513
You don't have to change the rules.

1134
00:46:29,733 --> 00:46:31,733
Motions. We have a motion to approve

1135
00:46:31,733 --> 00:46:34,540
the purchase. Here you go, Councilman Strah.

1136
00:46:34,762 --> 00:46:36,762
50 UV lamps and equipment

1137
00:46:36,762 --> 00:46:38,644
for wastewater treatment

1138
00:46:38,644 --> 00:46:40,644
for e-coli disinfection

1139
00:46:40,644 --> 00:46:42,644
from Trojan Technologies

1140
00:46:42,644 --> 00:46:44,644
in the amount of

1141
00:46:44,644 --> 00:46:46,481
$33,446

1142
00:46:46,481 --> 00:46:48,481
dollars and 40 cents.

1143
00:46:48,964 --> 00:46:50,964
So moved.

1144
00:46:50,964 --> 00:46:52,560
Second.

1145
00:46:52,860 --> 00:46:54,860
All in favor? "Aye."

1146
00:46:54,860 --> 00:46:56,860
Opposed?

1147
00:46:59,808 --> 00:47:01,808
Council, do you have unfinished

1148
00:47:01,808 --> 00:47:04,193
business, miscellaneous?

1149
00:47:09,040 --> 00:47:11,040
Mr. Lipian does.

1150
00:47:11,151 --> 00:47:13,151
Thank you. I would just

1151
00:47:13,151 --> 00:47:15,151
and this is unfinished business.

1152
00:47:15,151 --> 00:47:17,151
We've got a special. We have a

1153
00:47:17,151 --> 00:47:19,151
representative from the Chronicle Telegram.

1154
00:47:19,157 --> 00:47:21,157
Thank you for coming. You're welcome to come

1155
00:47:21,157 --> 00:47:23,242
to any of our meetings. We love having you here.

1156
00:47:23,333 --> 00:47:25,869
We want welcome you to ...

1157
00:47:25,869 --> 00:47:27,488
Thank you.

1158
00:47:27,488 --> 00:47:29,488
I would like to just quickly circle back

1159
00:47:29,488 --> 00:47:31,488
to that downtown redevelopment district.

1160
00:47:31,488 --> 00:47:33,488
I'd also add

1161
00:47:33,488 --> 00:47:35,488
you could really think of this like a micro-tax

1162
00:47:35,488 --> 00:47:37,553
and kind of financing. You can also take that

1163
00:47:37,553 --> 00:47:39,651
value and apply it to the improvement.

1164
00:47:39,651 --> 00:47:41,566
You get paid back over time of the property

1165
00:47:41,566 --> 00:47:43,566
value increases. And that's, that's

1166
00:47:43,566 --> 00:47:45,501
for the Chronicle's info.

1167
00:47:45,501 --> 00:47:47,501
And when it comes to the

1168
00:47:47,501 --> 00:47:49,293
UV light

1169
00:47:49,293 --> 00:47:50,732
lamps.

1170
00:47:50,732 --> 00:47:52,732
These help treat the water for e-coli.

1171
00:47:53,332 --> 00:47:55,378
Very important. It's the last stage in our waste

1172
00:47:55,378 --> 00:47:57,378
water treatment plant before the water goes

1173
00:47:57,384 --> 00:47:59,384
in the Black River. And our

1174
00:47:59,384 --> 00:48:02,156
superintendent of the wastewater plant told me

1175
00:48:02,658 --> 00:48:04,658
that we recently had

1176
00:48:04,663 --> 00:48:06,802
Antibotics were testing for our water.

1177
00:48:06,802 --> 00:48:08,646
And

1178
00:48:08,646 --> 00:48:10,646
it showed that the water

1179
00:48:10,646 --> 00:48:12,987
we're putting in. They put fleas and minnows in it.

1180
00:48:12,987 --> 00:48:14,987
We passed the water test with no

1181
00:48:14,987 --> 00:48:16,987
toxicity. Normally those are fleas

1182
00:48:16,988 --> 00:48:19,079
die from the water we putting in the Black

1183
00:48:19,079 --> 00:48:21,223
River. Or, if you would like, outflow.

1184
00:48:21,471 --> 00:48:23,471
Which shows the only kills

1185
00:48:23,471 --> 00:48:25,347
from the river were upstream.

1186
00:48:25,347 --> 00:48:27,784
Which shows that the water we're putting into

1187
00:48:27,784 --> 00:48:30,019
the river is contributing to

1188
00:48:30,019 --> 00:48:32,019
the cleanliness of the river.

1189
00:48:32,019 --> 00:48:34,019
Just want to make sure everybody understands

1190
00:48:34,019 --> 00:48:36,019
that. That means the water treatment plant's

1191
00:48:36,026 --> 00:48:38,026
clean. That's my time. "I got a question."

1192
00:48:39,194 --> 00:48:41,194
Didn't we do this about six months ago?

1193
00:48:41,742 --> 00:48:43,742
Yes, but a portion of it ...

1194
00:48:43,742 --> 00:48:45,853
and this is the rest of it. "Oh, yeah."

1195
00:48:45,853 --> 00:48:47,684
Direct. "Just."

1196
00:48:47,684 --> 00:48:50,031
Well, that's $66,000 dollars

1197
00:48:50,031 --> 00:48:51,867
a year.

1198
00:48:51,867 --> 00:48:53,743
For all of it. "Yeah."

1199
00:48:53,743 --> 00:48:55,743
Plus sockets and any repairs or

1200
00:48:55,743 --> 00:48:57,743
anything that needs done. "For this year, yeah."

1201
00:48:57,743 --> 00:49:00,156
And they have a lifespan that's longer than a year.

1202
00:49:00,156 --> 00:49:02,156
If Council would like I can get back to you

1203
00:49:02,156 --> 00:49:04,156
on when we expect to have to pay for

1204
00:49:04,156 --> 00:49:06,156
that again. "No. I just"

1205
00:49:06,404 --> 00:49:08,404
want to make everyone aware that

1206
00:49:08,737 --> 00:49:10,737
that's one of the ongoing prices.

1207
00:49:10,822 --> 00:49:12,822
Even in the sewer business.

1208
00:49:25,015 --> 00:49:27,127
When there's a request, I always appoint

1209
00:49:27,127 --> 00:49:28,733
an issue.

1210
00:49:29,040 --> 00:49:31,040
Would be the VA requesting executive session.

1211
00:49:31,660 --> 00:49:33,660
I make a motion to go into executive session.

1212
00:49:34,612 --> 00:49:36,612
Second it for employment.

1213
00:49:37,330 --> 00:49:39,656
Well, we got that state matter. "McCort?"

1214
00:49:39,669 --> 00:49:41,812
Yes. "Strah?" Yes. "Kitts?" Yes.

1215
00:49:41,812 --> 00:49:43,995
Sauer? "Yes." Dukles? "Yes."

1216
00:49:44,727 --> 00:49:47,071
You should actually read this first.

1217
00:49:47,071 --> 00:49:49,071
Is there going to be anything after

1218
00:49:49,071 --> 00:49:50,751
the executive session? 

1219
00:49:50,751 --> 00:49:52,895
Or they're going to done then?

1220
00:49:52,889 --> 00:49:54,889
We need our phone here. Go ahead.

1221
00:49:54,895 --> 00:49:56,463
Okay, I'll listen to the phone.

1222
00:49:56,463 --> 00:49:58,896
...

1223
00:50:45,477 --> 00:50:48,327
Thank you. We'll go into executive. "Amen."

1224
00:50:48,327 --> 00:50:50,327
...
