Councilman Mecca asked about the dirt on Third Street and the status of the National Guard's interest in moving it. Mr. Lacava replied that the National Guard has no place to dump it and they only have 5 yard trucks as was reported at the last - meeting. Mr. Duffy had made contact with DOT and other sources but has not received any responses. Dr. Mecca then advised that a project on Route 23 in Wayne is going up and they may be able to use some of the dirt. Councilman Stein pointed out that we should be careful since the matter is going before the courts and encouraged waiting for the courts. Deputy Mayor Robinson asked Mr. Lacava to supply the name of the person at the Armory by the next meeting so we can see what can be done. She also asked that Mr. Duffy be required to be present at the August 6th meeting. I The Deputy Mayor also stated that she was assured at the last meeting that there would be some progress in clearing the debris, dirt and rocks on Third Street. It has not been done: it is still there. She asked what does it take to get this taken care of. It's dangerous. She asked when would the dirt be moved from the sidewalk on Central Avenue and the time frame.  Mr. Lacava said he reports what Mr. Duffy gives him and he would have Mr. Duffy call her tomorrow morning. Councilman Mattei said he was in the area and the wall is about to come down. The area is atrocious.

We have a time regulated by ordinance on the books now. Harry Stosser, 175 Railroad Avenue, asked for permission to print buttons which read "I love Hackensack 11• He said he would like to I honor all living Mayors for the past 40 years. Susan Habig, 34 Poplar Avenue, asked questions regarding the flag at Memorial Park which does not have a light. She was advised that the Committee will be putting a light there. She also complained that dog owners are not picking up after their dogs and why do Police Officers have to ride up and down Main Street to issue tickets. She said they should be walking. Rev. Ike McKinnon, Pastor of King of Kings, 309-315 State Street,_ asked the City Council to take action on an ordinance which would exempt them from paying 1989 taxes as they are a bona fide church. It was required that they own the property prior to October 1st. They have been renting the property for some time and were in the process of purchasing. He explained that there was a problem with the corporation papers filed with the state, which was not resolved by October 1st. Had there not been a problem with the corporation status, they would have been the owners by October 1st, instead they closed on November 6th. He distributed a document to the City Council. The City Attorney said he would speak with the Tax Assessor to help rectify the situation and would also like to get in touch with I their attorney. Ms. Robinson requested that the information be provided before the next meeting. Grover Reynolds, 197 Berdan Place, raised questions regarding the taxing of condos and was advised by Ms. Robinson that the subject came up in Executive Session and suggested that Mr. Reynolds keep raising his questions until an answer can be provided. When Mr. Reynolds asked questions regarding the City's health insurance carrier being out of state, Mr. Lacava explained that we are not going out of state and explained that Travelers, which is in New Jersey, uses a bank in Connecticut and we have to transfer funds from time to time for claims.  When he asked for the files, it was suggested that Mr. Reynolds come to his office and he would be able to show him the files. Mr. Reynolds said this was acceptable. Rainer Olster, 144 Union Street, spoke on the budget and the increase in taxes. Mr. Olster made a comment that Dr. Mecca stated that Mr. Mattei could have decreased the budget; statements pursued between Councilmen Mattei and Mecca. Martha Bell, spoke at length regarding the dirt on Third Street I and the effect it has on the citizens' health; pollutant water in her basement; and no black employees in the Health Department. She said she was pleased that Councilman Mattei and Chief Bill Iurato went to the area of Third Street to investigate and presented each with a token of appreciation. Ms. Robinson asked the Attorney to look into this tomorrow to see if a fine can be immediately imposed. Councilman Mattei suggested that a monitor be placed in the area because he could smell an odor of chlorine in the air. Dorothy Schwartz, 47 Prospect Avenue, spoke about the form letter regarding taxes that went to homeowners as taxpayers and was offended that although tenants pay high rent and taxes, they were ignored. She again asked that tax surcharges be eliminated from the Rent Ordinance and to decrease the high rent tenants pay. Ms. Robinson asked the Manager to check the Quail Heights site for several radios which are played very loud before 8:00 A. M. during the week as well as on Sundays. Alexis Palinkas, 235 Prospect Avenue, made comments on Dr. Mecca's views of the budget. Dr. Mecca took exception to what she was I saying. Mr. Olster continued with comments on the number of bond issues requesting that the City should pay for the projects. It was pointed out by Mr. Stein that if the City had to pay for such items as the sewers, streets, etc., in one year, the City could be faced with 15 million dollars and think what it would do to the tax rate. Motion offered by Mattei, seconded by Stein that the public hearing be closed and the meeting be adjourned. Carried. (11:15 p.M.)
