Mrs. Dukes advised the Mayor that her Docket was completed.
I
The Mayor thanked her and asked the City Manager, City Attorney
and members of Council if they had anything to report. They did not.
Mayor Zisa opened the meeting to the public for discussion of
City business.
Sandy Williams, 267 Clay Street, requested an investigation of a
four-family house located on the corner of Second Street and Clay
Street being used for drug trafficking. He reported they have pit
bulls and New York cars are frequently located there. The Pol ice
Department is aware of what is taking place. He is concerned about
the number of children using Carver Park and the children who are
coming from the Day Care Center across the street from the park. Mr.
Williams said he hopes there will not be any problems before the
situation can be cleared.
Mayor Zisa asked the City Manager to make a note to pass this
information to the proper person.
Dorothy Schwartz, 47 Prospect Avenue, stated several complaints
she had regarding recycling collections, the PBA letter, the
administering of oaths and how City employees answer the phone. She
also asked the progress regarding amplification of the Council
Chambers.
I
Mayor Zisa advised that the City is going through an ADA
checklist and this will be one of the items that will be included.
When Ms. Schwartz asked when, the Mayor replied that he would be
very happy if it took place in 6 to 8 months.
Eugene Marshall, 191 Poplar Avenue, also spoke on the drug
problem at the corner of Second and Clay Streets. He is concerned
about the number of children who frequent the park on a daily basis
and requested that something be done soon.
Conrad Francis, 140 Euclid Avenue, also spoke on the same sub j ect
matter.
Eric Martindale, 33 Essex Street, said he had previously advised
the City Council about two houses that were boarded up. Since then, a
third house has been boarded up. He said this detracts from property
value and asked if anything has been done.
The Mayor said the situation has been looked into and the homes
are in compliance for boarded-up houses.
I
Eric said that he feels the City is neglecting these things and
something has to be done.
Jack Donovan, Willow Avenue, said he agreed with Mr. Martindale.
He said he had an occasion to hire 125 people for a project and a lot
of them had Eng 1ish as a second language, which prevents them from
getting jobs. He told Councilman Galvis that he should do something
about changing it.
Chevon Pemberton, Clay Street, .also spoke on the subject of the
house on the corner of Second and Clay Streets where drugs are being
dispensed. He too, is concerned about the kids· who are aware of the
drug activities. He also has a fear of what is going to take place as
summer approaches.
Mayor Zisa said that he can only encourage the police to take the
necessary action and urged him to keep both the police and the Manager
informed of the activities.
Councilwoman Trammell added that she had been made aware of the
problem and had reported it to the police.
Councilman Galvis said he would speak to the Police Chief about
the matter.
I
Motion offered by Trammell, seconded by Galvis that the public
hearing be closed and the meeting be adjourned. Carried (9: 03 p.m.)
