Before I continue, I know that some people who haven’t seen me lately, or ever, and I don’t usually wear a hat to City Council but I had some surgery recently, that’s the reason I’m doing it, so forgive me. I’m not trying to be rude at all. PUBLIC HEARINGS PRESIDENT SCHULMAN: We are now under Public Hearings. We have no Public Hearings this evening. OLD BUSINESS COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS JOURNAL 102 JOURNAL PAGE -291- MINUTES OF THE MEETING JUNE 6, 2016 PRESIDENT SCHULMAN: We turn now to Old Business. Is there any Old Business? There is none. PUBLIC SPEAKS PRESIDENT SCHULMAN: Turning now to Public Speaks. We have 3 speakers signed up this evening and the first is Bruce Nordman. BRUCE NORDMAN: Good evening. I’m Bruce Nordman. I reside at 1623 Logan Avenue NW. I’m here this morning...er...boy oh boy, the days go, I don’t know which time or what time it is today. (Inaudible) (Laughter). That started it. I’m here this evening representing Vassar Park Neighborhood Association. I am current Vice President and have been nominated to be it’s President. I’ve got good news for everyone here. I’m going to talk about Kings Landing that used to be called Ridgewood Castle, where the old Case Mansion used to be on 17th NW and Market. As you all know, this facility has been the number one address for police and fire calls over the last several years when it was owned by Ken Ippolito. December 10th last year, it was sold and we have new owners and we have much to be joyful for. The new owners have to date, evicted 29 of it’s prior residents, 9 more are in process. They have had 16 leave and another 5 are packing their bags. They have cut out most of the problems with parking. I’m glad to say the City has profited about $400 to $500 a day because there’s no parking at the facilities and they’ve been making sure that it has ceased. They have spent, already, $140,000.00 on improving all of the electrical circuit boxes going into the apartments because there has been 5 electrical fires and they’re going to spend $190,000.00 on windows for the entire complex and it’s got 176 units. On June 21st, which is a Tuesday, Vassar Park Neighborhood Association is going to hold a meeting in which the owners will be present. They will discuss all of the improvements that they’ve made and improvements that they anticipate going forward. We’ve already had a meeting with Mayor Bernabei and the owners on May 4th and it went very well. I’m inviting the Mayor, the staff, and all of the City Council people that can be there, to be there June 21st. Our meeting starts at 6:30 to 8:00 so that you can ask questions and make suggestions as to how the city can work with this facility to improve it. With that, I thank you all and in my absence, I applaud all of the great work that all of you have done in improving the City. Thank you for your efforts. PRESIDENT SCHULMAN: Thank you Bruce, very much. Thank you for your efforts. (Applause). Our next speaker is James parker. Mr. Parker, as always, welcome to Canton City Council. If you would give us your name and your residential address. JAMES PARKER: Thank you, President Allen Schulman. James Parker, 630 Penny St. SE, city of North Canton. Before I speak on anything I wish to speak upon concerning our City Business, I think it only appropriate that during our prayers every week, we include Allen in our prayers, that we have a moment of silence now and direct our thoughts and our healing energies to Allen and his family, for our love and support for everything he does. He donates his money back to the city that he earns as a stipend here, so the least we can do is have a moment of silence for Allen’s wellness. PRESIDENT SCHULMAN: The questions is...am I still here? (Laughter). JAMES PARKER: I knew you’d break it up quite well. We wish the best and I hope you get well soon. In approving...I believe I’ve given my name and address...In approving the emergency resolution for the Downtown...#1 Resolution...approving the Downtown Master Plan, please realize that when you vote yes, approving this plan, you’ll be hearing from the Refuge of Hope and all these mental health people downtown because that plan calls for the removal of the Refuge of Hope and the homeless shelter downtown, which I encourage. They used to have a county farm. Whatever it is you got to do, these guys are sex offenders, a lot COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS JOURNAL 102 JOURNAL PAGE -292- MINUTES OF THE MEETING JUNE 6, 2016 of them are criminals or displaced persons. I realize they’re down and out, I realize there’s been a recession and that people don’t have a good break these days, a lot of them, but you’ve got to make your break. They get out from down there early in the morning and they each pick a corner and they panhandle without a permit and they’re a nuisance to society. You take a good place like Sante Fe, New Mexico that put millions of dollars into their downtown tourist area, and these bums won’t accept $5.00 to make them go away, they wanted $20.00. Read the online comments about downtown Sante Fe. It cites many concerns of displaced persons in this downtown plan. From their mental illnesses to their visitor perceptions. We know that they’re there and we know where they’re going during the day, so by approving this plan, you do consent to the approval of these measures in order not to have an open air asylum during the times these men roam downtown. So, now I’m onto the Southeast end, the Spray Park. There’s been 2 letters to the Editor that this is too little, too late. The kids are lined up...I mean for two million, our Church got a (Inaudible) event center built on it. For half a million dollars, you got a glorified lawn sprinkler. What is going to happen? You need a plan to accommodate these children. Can they at least bring their own slip and slides, their own hoses? Accommodate them. Put up more stuff, allow the water to saturate in the ground, let the children play. They shouldn’t have to stand in line on a hot summer to wait for their time in a water sprinkler. They’re undervalued as persons and when you undervalue them as a child, they don’t...how do you say...they resign themselves. The cloud of resignation. You can see it moving over their faces as they age and grow up. Something needs to be done. Thank you. (Applause). PRESIDENT SCHULMAN: Our last speaker is Lois Jacobson. As always, welcome Ms. Jacobson. Please give us your name now and your residential address. LOIS JACOBSON: Lois Jacobson, 2327 Applegrove St. in North Canton. I’ve left some information at your places also. I’m going to give another report on Dialogues on Diversity. This is a diversity training program brought to Canton through funding by Temple Israel, Arts in Stark, and Kent State Stark. Kind of diverse right there. On March 1st, they were here in Canton. They were at McKinley High School, or McKinley Downtown Campus for a performance and at Kent State Stark Campus. And then they met with Stark County leaders from all the sectors of Stark County: Arts, Business, Education, Faith, Government, Media, and Arts. We met that day to combine best practices, form new partnerships, to speak to the issues of diversity. The goal is to make Stark County a place where we’re known as a place when diversity comes together to make it a better place instead of a voting trend area. At the next meeting on April 13th, again we all met, coming together to focus our progress and to move ahead. At that meeting also, it was reported that we now have a Facebook account and it is called Diversity Speaks in Stark County, which will allow us to spread this work even further. That was put together by a very young man by the name of Kelly Williams and if you do not know who he is, I hope you soon find out because he’s a very dynamic young man, doing some great work in downtown Canton. On June 9th we meet again. And there I have four points that our agenda will entail at that time. Added to this is...we’re going to put together strategies to not only prevent diversity incidents, but also to react to any that happen. There have been a lot of proposals made and put forward by the different sectors on how this can be accomplished throughout the county, including all outlying areas working together. Taking people out of their silos, bringing out best practices together to speak to the issue of diversity in the county. I invite all of you, if you can, to be a part of what we are doing June 9th or to send a representative. All are welcome to attend and I can also be contacted for more information about this at any time. I really appreciate the opportunity to speak to you again about this very important project that we’re very, very proud of. Thank you. PRESIDENT SCHULMAN: Thank you Lois. (Applause). (Inaudible). We do appreciate it. COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS JOURNAL 102 JOURNAL PAGE -293- MINUTES OF THE MEETING JUNE 6, 2016 INFORMAL RESOLUTIONS PRESIDENT SCHULMAN: Okay. We are now under Informal Resolutions and we have 3 this evening. Mister Clerk, will you begin with Informal Resolution #41, please. #41. COUNCIL-AS-A-WHOLE: COMMENDING JOE DIRUZZA FOR HIS DEDICATED SERVICE AS FINANCE DIRECTOR FOR CITY OF CANTON. - ADOPTED PRESIDENT SCHULMAN: Leader. MEMBER MORRIS: Mr. President, I move we adopt Informal Resolution #41. MEMBER SMITH: Second. PRESIDENT SCHULMAN: It’s been moved and seconded that you adopt Informal Resolution #41. Are there any remarks? MEMBER MARIOL: Mr. President. PRESIDENT SCHULMAN: Yes. MEMBER MARIOL: Can we have that read, please, sir. PRESIDENT SCHULMAN: Mister Clerk, would you please read Resolution 41. CLERK SHOWES: An Informal Resolution Respectfully Submitted by Council-As-A-Whole on this 6th day of June, 2016. Whereas, Joe DiRuzza was hired on March 23, 2011 as Finance Director for the City of Canton; and Whereas, For five years until March 11, 2016 when he decided to move onto “bigger and better” things, Joe diligently and timely prepared the yearly budget; and Whereas, During his tenure with the City of Canton, Joe initiated the implementation of New World, the city’s financial management software system, as responsible for the city gas card program, and conducted the AT & T phone line audit which resulted in saving the city nearly $200,000.00 a year. Now Therefore Be It Resolved: that we, the Members of Council of the City of Canton, Ohio, do hereby recognize and commend Joe DiRuzza for his hard work and dedication as Finance Director. We thank you for sharing your talents for the benefit of our City. PRESIDENT SCHULMAN: Thank you Mister Clerk. Any other remarks? Hearing none, by voice vote, all those in favor, signify by saying aye. Those opposed no. NO REMARKS RESOLUTION #41 PASSED UNANIMOUSLY BY VOICE VOTE PRESIDENT SCHULMAN: The ayes have it. Congratulations. JOE DIRUZZA: Thank you. PRESIDENT SCHULMAN: You’re welcome. (Applause). COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS JOURNAL 102 JOURNAL PAGE -294- MINUTES OF THE MEETING JUNE 6, 2016 MEMBER MARIOL: It’s been a...I know I can speak for everybody... PRESIDENT SCHULMAN...I’m sorry...If anybody wants to take photographs, you’re more than welcome. (Laughter). (Inaudible). If you want to move up here to take a photograph. Sorry Member Mariol. There you go. This is the happiest I’ve seen him look in 30 years! (Laughter) (Inaudible). MEMBER MARIOL: I think I can speak for everybody to say that it’s been an absolute honor to get to work with you. Budget Directors have an incredibly difficult task. They don’t get to vote on how we spend money but you have to make it balance at the end of the year. You have guided us through recession, local government fund cuts, and every...at the end of every year, even when it looks very thin, you somehow have made it work time and time again. Not only that, but you’ve made budgets (Inaudible), and it’s been incredible enjoyable to work with you. It’s been an honor to learn from you, to work with you and I know you’ll do great in your endeavor right now. So, congratulations, thank you Joe. JOE DIRUZZA: Thank you. (Applause). MEMBER MARIOL: Thank you. JOE DIRUZZA: Um...this was certainly unexpected. I didn’t prepare a big speech. I know Bill was hoping I would, but thank you guys. It was pleasure working with all of you. I’ve learned a lot from you and nothing gets accomplished by yourself. I mean...I got a lot of this from discussions with Council, a lot of it from my support group on the 8th floor, mainly Bill, Fonda, Andrea, the Mayor’s not here, and the other people; Katie Wise, Carly Skidmore, everybody up there provides a really good support group. I’m sure Mark realizes that in the short time he’s been here. Working with the elected officials, you know, it was an honor to work for the city of Canton, and again, just like I said, I...I...I, it was unexpected. I certainly feel it pales in comparison to the guys that put their lives on the line everyday and the firemen that are being awarded tonight, but that’s about all I can say is thank you very much. This is certainly a good thing. (Applause). MEMBER FISHER: Mr. President. PRESIDENT SCHULMAN: Yes. MEMBER FISHER: I worked with Joe before. We worked together here at the County Auditor’s office. I’ve known him for some time, so I was wondering Joe, is it okay if I still call you and argue about the budget just for fun? (Laughter). Because you know, we had quite a few go-rounds. I’ll provide you all the numbers and then I can tell you why the numbers I gave you were wrong! Does that work for you? JOE DIRUZZA: That works for me. PRESIDENT SCHULMAN: Thanks Member Fisher. Are there any other remarks? Joe, thank you again for your dedicated service. We do appreciate it. SAFETY DIRECTOR PERRY: Mr. President. PRESIDENT SCHULMAN: Yes. COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS JOURNAL 102 JOURNAL PAGE -295- MINUTES OF THE MEETING JUNE 6, 2016 SAFETY DIRECTOR PERRY: One more thing before Joe sneaks out of here. Today’s Joe’s birthday, so happy birthday, Joe. (Applause). (Laughter). PRESIDENT SCHULMAN: Anything else, Joe? (Laughter). Is it your anniversary...? (Laughter). Thank you again Joe, we really do appreciate it. Moving on to Informal Resolution #42. #42.

Shearer’s Snacks and Kim Davenport and Hall of Fame Mart for the condiments, ice and the paper goods, Councilman Thomas West for his appearance, Andrea Perry, our Safety Director, Mr. Jason Reese and the Repository (Inaudible). And also, the kids are not standing in line to get in. In fact, they’re getting in collectively and they are having a great time. I’d like to thank all of the Council Members for your vote and thank you for building it because they are attending and having a great time. Thank you. (Applause). MEMBER WEST: Mr. President. PRESIDENT SCHULMAN: Yes. MEMBER WEST: I’d like to also thank Chris Smith for her endurance during that process and I’d like to concur. When I was down there that Sunday they did the opening, those kids had big smiles on their face, they enjoyed the water. It was hot. I wanted to get in the water but I had a suit on, but I’ve got to tell you, Chris, you did an excellent job that day as well as the whole few years that we’ve been waiting to get this thing developed. It’s not the size. Sometimes we look at the size and everybody’s talking about, “Well, it should be a big park, it should be a pool, it should be Jackson.” You know, sometimes it just takes a little bit of water to have a kid smile and I really enjoyed it, seeing those children smile that day. Now, that’s a start, not a finish. That park is not for the whole city, we’ve got to develop more, and I think that was a good start and Chris, I’m sure you’re going to field on that, as well as the rest of our Council Members. I’m sure we’re going to look at other (Inaudible) the city of Canton. (Applause). COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS JOURNAL 102 JOURNAL PAGE -307- MINUTES OF THE MEETING JUNE 6, 2016 PRESIDENT SCHULMAN: Any other remarks? Leader. MEMBER MORRIS: Motion to adjourn.
