Mr. Sisak: Thank you. I would like to call Finance to order; myself, Mr. Donovan and

to the issuance and sale of bonds in the maximum principal amount of $8,000,000 for
the purpose of constructing, equipping, furnishing, and otherwise improving a new
municipal fire station. I spoke to the Mayor this week and it looks like he has a
presentation for us and then it looks like both the Fire Chief and Deputy Fire Chief are
on as well to field any questions. So, I will go ahead and turn it over to the Mayor.
Mayor: Thank you. We have Bobby Johnson, the architect of record from MPG on
with us to answer questions too.

VIRTUAL REGULAR MEETING
in Council Chambers @ 7:00 p.m. April 22, 21
Mayor (Cont’d.) I just wanted to briefly go over the fact sheet when we went to the
City electorate, the residents, and asked for the ¼% increase for the purpose of
replacing Station 2 with a new fire station and then capital items such as the new fire
truck which passed last year, and so we went forward with that.
We entered into a contract with MPG to build a new Fire Station 2. They have a sub-
contractor who is world renowned on building fire stations.
Mr. Johnson, from MPG, gave a presentation with regard to the construction of the
new Fire Station 2. There was also discussion from the Fire Chief and the Deputy
Fire Chief regarding the new station.
Mr. Sisak: First of all, thank you to Barry and to the Mayor and to both Chiefs for
providing that presentation. It was good information. I did get some communication
from Mollie, even though our funding for the station is going to come out of the ¼%
income tax, she did send me the debt schedule for what will be falling off within the
next couple of years as far as our general bond obligations for different bonds and it
looks like we have . . . the North Avenue Project will be falling off; the last payment
will be this year 2021 as well as the City Hall Renovations. So that is going to alleviate
about $375,000 debt payments again out of the General Fund, but we just want to be
aware of what we are taking on as a community financially and what is falling off as a
community financially and so I thought that was good information.
Dir. of Finance: So, when we were working on preparing this bond legislation, the
reason we went with the maximum price of $8,000,000 was two-fold because one, we
are operating under a CMR model, and so we are kind of issuing the debt blindly and
so I, as the Finance Director, just wanted to make sure that you know, we were talking
closer to under $6,000,000 and it probably looks like once you add in the architecture
and whatnot, we will be a little bit over $7,000,000 and so I just didn’t feel comfortable
making that level too tight. I am not really wanting to go to $8,000,000.
The Mayor and I have discussed that, and I am more comfortable with this
$7,200,000. I did run numbers at $7.2 million which gives us an annual debt payment
on the fire station on average around $445,000 a year and I also had numbers run on
$7.8 million and really even jumping up to the $7.8 million, that only gets our debt
payment an increase of about $25,000 a year and so you know the difference
between you know, $7 and $7.2 and $7.8 million annualized is not a large burden. I
have, in looking at things, I feel comfortable; those are 20-year debt numbers and so
I do think comfortably since we do have a dedicated revenue source that instead of
prolonging the debt payment of this out, over 30 or 40 years, which we legally could
do, I am looking more at a 20-year debt issuance on this and so that was just from a
financial perspective and my reasoning behind it.
We are in the CMR model and we don’t have the exact price, but we are financially
. . . it is the right move right now to issue bonds up front because of the interest rate
environment we are in. It is going to save us a lot of money, but that means we are
passing legislation now so we can be prepared in case that interest rate environment
starts to change. We really aren’t looking to sell the bonds until we have a better idea
through the CMR what that guaranteed maximum price is so that we can properly size
them to the building.
So, I know the $8,000,000 was kind of shocking to everybody, but from a Finance
Director’s perspective that is why I asked our Bond Counsel to put the maximum
amount at $8,000,000.
Mayor: Mollie, could you touch base about the reimbursement of paying for the site
itself of the $500,000. We paid cash for the site. It is totally paid for and if we left it
to the end of the day, we could reimburse ourselves . . .
Dir. of Finance: Correct. If we left it at the $8,000,000 we could include the
reimbursement for the land purchases if we wanted to. I personally don’t think we
need to do that financially, but we do have that ability if something were to come up
you know, if we had a big issue where we had a big issue where we needed to get
that cash back for the City for the bond issuance we could include those also which
would require us to get to the $8,000,000 to include the land. The land purchase was
just under $500,000 that we would add to that and so that would definitely get us
closer to the $8,000,000 if we decided to add that into the debt issuances.
Mr. Sisak: Does the committee or Council have any questions surrounding Ord. 52-
2021 at this time. There was discussion regarding the new fire station between
Council, the Administration, Mr. Johnson from MPG and Fire Chief Passarelli and
Deputy Fire Chief Stasik.
Mr. Grimm: That being said, we will just give this a 2nd Reading and adopt at 3rd.

• Ord. 53-2021 – (2nd Reading) – An ordinance providing for the
issuance and sale of bonds in the maximum principal amount of
$1,000,000, for the purpose of paying costs improving the intersection
of East Avenue and Washburn Road by constructing, reconstructing,
widening, improving, grading, paving, curbing, constructing sidewalks,
installing storm sewers and related drainage facilities, acquiring and
installing traffic control devices and signals, acquiring all necessary
real estate and making other improvements as designated in the plans
approved or to be approved by Council, all together with the necessary
appurtenances thereto, and providing for immediate enactment.
Mr. Sisak: Next we have Ord. 53-2021 in front of us at 2nd Reading, providing for the
issuance and bond sale in the principal amount of $1,000,000 for the purpose of
paying the costs for improving the intersection of East Avenue and Washburn Road.
Mr. Grimm: I will move that we give this a 2nd Reading.
Mr. Sisak: I would agree Mr. Donovan; are you good with that?
Mr. Donovan: Absolutely.
Mr. Sisak: OK, then we will give this a 2nd Reading.
• Ord. 55-2021 – (1st Reading) – Amending Ord. 64-2020 to revise the
tournament maintenance fee and providing for immediate enactment.
Mr. Sisak: We also have Ord. 55-2021, and it is at 1st Reading and it is revising the
tournament maintenance fee and providing for immediate enactment. We had a
discussion at our last meeting. Mr. Rorar made a suggestion and he said he was
going to get us an ordinance and here it is. Any input Mr. Rorar or any comments on
this?
Dir. of Pub. Service: Yes. I do want to ask for a revision on that. I noticed as I was
looking over it just now that it states in there Monday through Thursday and Friday
through Sunday, but it is every day. Those fees . . . it doesn’t matter the day and so
I am not sure why I drafted it that way, but I do apologize and so the days should be
scratched from Section 1 and Section 2 in the ordinance.
Then what I did do was I still feel that I didn’t communicate well with Little League on
this and so I cut it in half to the $675 cost and so that is what we are doing. I cut the
regular fee into half.
Mr. Sisak: OK, question for the Law Director; this needs to be changed and so we
probably can’t pass it at 1st Reading?
Dir. of Law: You can amend it on the floor.
Mr. Sisak: OK.
Mr. Sisak: OK, so we will go ahead and give this a 1st Reading tonight. Is there any
input from the rest of Council? Hearing none we will move on.
• Ord. 56-2021 – (1st Reading) – Expressing intent to sell unneeded,
obsolete, or unfit equipment, miscellaneous tools, vehicles, and
vehicle accessories by Edinburg auction in calendar year 2021 and
providing for immediate enactment.
Mr. Sisak: Ord. 56-2021; we will just give this a 1st Reading.
• Res. 12-2021 – (1st Reading) – A resolution opposing Sub. House Bill
157 amending the law regarding withholding municipal earned income
tax for those working virtually and/or at home and providing for
immediate enactment.
Mr. Sisak: A resolution opposing Sub House Bill 157 amending the law regarding
withholding municipal earned income tax for those working virtually and/or at home
and providing for immediate enactment.
Dir. of Finance: Yes, so this bill is currently pending down in the State Legislature.
There are some legislators trying to end the provision that the Governor passed
regarding businesses being able to withhold for employees that they sent home to
work at home as the actual principal place of business. What is more troubling about
the legislation is that it provides in it that anybody who has been home since last
March and has been operating this way can actually apply to the municipality which
the income tax was withheld for a refund and so there is currently legislation or there
is currently litigation pending. If that passes, we could see a large amount of refund
requests come through. It is hard to judge what that would even look like.

Mr. Donovan: Will it be recorded or presented anywhere that we can watch it
afterwards or . . . I am interested in being there, but I don’t now how many people that
puts us at. We are at 3.
Dir. of Law: I guess the thought process that we would meet with the people who
co-sponsored the legislation and see what their input was with regard to the R-6 and
then eventually that input would be shared with everyone if there are other
amendments that come from that and certainly if you have specific things that you
want to do, we can meet with you individually or we would need to schedule a Work
Session.
Mr. Donovan: OK. If there are more than 3.
Mayor: We are not opposed to that; we just need to know that.
Mr. Donovan: Right, that is what I am saying is that I would like to be part of that. I
mean it would be in my committee and I would like to hear that input I guess firsthand.
Mayor: If you could just let our office know so we can schedule that meeting.
Mr. Donovan: OK. Alright, we will just give that a 2nd Reading at this point.

Mr. Donovan: Next we have Ord. 51-2021. Is there anything anyone wants to add

and so you will see it again, but for now, just give it a 2nd Reading.

OK, so Ord. 51-2021; we will just give a 2nd Reading. Is there anything else to come
before the Planning & Zoning this evening?
Mr. Loughry made some comments regarding the Planning & Zoning U-Tube
presentation.
Mayor: Dennis, thank you for the comments, but also if you could put those. I didn’t
sit here and write down your questions, but as the document said, we are asking input
and you gave great input; you actually gave it now publicly on the floor, but we are
asking for written comments so we could then address those, so I am sure you have
those jotted down that you could forward to the Zoning Department.
Mr. Loughry: Well, I’m hoping, and my hope was that Mrs. Burton would get the
minutes done and I would submit that portion of the minutes. It’s only the 22nd and I
can redo this and get it to Mrs. Hussing. Not a problem. Thank you.
Mayor: Alright. Thanks.
Mr. Donovan: Is there anything else to come before Planning & Zoning this evening?
No one responded. I will close committee; thank you.
