REPORTS OF SPECIAL COMMITTEES: None. 8. AGENDA ADDITIONS: None. 9. REPORTS OF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICERS: MAYOR, DIR. OF PUBLIC SERVICE, DIRECTOR OF FINANCE, DIRECTOR OF LAW, DIRECTOR OF ADMINISTRATION AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR Mayor: Thank you Madame Chairman. Let me start off with the Old Town Hall. If you saw some guys working along the west side of the building; this is actually standing outside of the building looking into it. This window jam; if you look at it, it is fairly good, but I think over the years it has been leaking water and I will go to the . . . that is inside the wall where there is no insulation. This is the plate that the second floor of the building is sitting on that has rotted out. REGULAR MEETING in Council Chambers @ 7:30 p.m. May 10, 18 Mayor (Cont’d.) Rick Bochert and Chris Grimm noticed the floor is starting to sag a little bit inside the building and so they had a contractor remove the outside siding because this wall; you can’t see from the basement because there is a secondary wall in the basement when they finished off the inside of the basement to hide the old foundation basically and to support the building so you really can’t see that. The bottom line is that it needs some emergency repair. The contractor is working on that and the funds . . . I have a budget right now of between $10,000 and $15,000 for the repairs. Andrea has already talked to the State of Ohio and is looking at different grant opportunities and also a group that if we become signatory to this group, it is part of a funding source for historical structures and we could get possibly 50% of matching grants and so we are working on that as we speak. But, in the meantime, we have to take care of the situation. That is the outside wall. There is no insulation in this building whatsoever, and so I just wanted to give you a heads up that we are doing some repairs on that. Pres. of Council: So that piece of wood that has deteriorated; that is like what 200 year old wood? Mayor: It is as old as the building. That is part of the tree that they honed down . . . Pres. of Council: That is what it looked like; yeah. Mayor: But it is rotted out inside the wall that you just can’t see. Mr. Sisak: The Historical Society isn’t responsible for the structure? Mayor: That is our building. It is the City of Tallmadge building. They are working with us on that. They asked how much we wanted them to pay and I said the same thing; I told Chris Grimm, who is the President of the Historical Society, I said, the whole thing. But, it is our building and we want to maintain this building and we want to put money into it. We don’t want it to get too bad, but I have to make that repair and so they are going to work with us and in fairness to them, they are willing to help fund some of this. Mr. Carano: Mayor Kline; if it gets repaired ahead of time, then does it become impossible to get money from other sources because it is already done or is that . . . that shouldn’t be a problem? Mayor: We will still need some other repairs. We are going to make this repair to prevent the floors from sagging or falling in and the second floor from dropping and it is not . . . it is going to happen eventually, but the building is totally safe and that secondary wall in the basement is actually holding up some of it. Mr. Carano: I was thinking more in terms of if you get it fixed; are they going to . . . Mayor: We are going to continue to apply for more funds to open up more of the outside foundation and keep going. Mr. Carano: I didn’t know if it would preclude you from getting it if you already fixed it. Mayor: The windows are all rotted out and these jams are the original jams and you can actually take your finger and almost push through some of those joints that are wet. So we are not pushing our fingers through it. It is all hidden stuff and so I am just giving Council some updates that we are working on that. The Gaga pit at Lions Park; the Boy Scout is going forward with . . . Eagle Scout, what did I say? It is a Scout, but he is doing his Eagle Scout work. He is going forward with it and he submitted plans and his goal is to have his funds raised and start this project on the weekend of June 23rd. It is going to be in Lions Park behind . . . if you go off of Kent Drive and drive around the back by the bocce ball courts; it is going to be back in that area back there. It is a pretty neat project going on. Outside of that, don’t forget the Memorial Day Parade that is coming up. We will have another Council meeting. I will not be at the next Council meeting. I will be out of state; Hilton Head, but I will think about you. I will be back for that weekend. I am coming back early for the festivities in the Circle on Saturday with the Concert in the Park and then the Memorial Day Parade. Dir. of Pub. Service: Good evening. For the monthly service report for the month of April for the Cemetery; you can see we had 7 burials. We also went through and leveled up the cemetery grounds around the graves. We had a lot of settling and I think that is normal, but I think with the exceptionally wet spring, I think we had an excessive amount and so we have been doing that. Something new that we are doing over there, if you go over there; we are not using straw anymore just because it blows all over the place and over there we don’t want that and so we are using something similar to like Penn Mulch and so it is a green substance but it doesn’t blow all over the place and it is pretty effective and in that area you won’t get a lot of trampling from kids and stuff so . . . you can see that green hue in that picture right there. So that is the Penn Mulch and when it gets wet it spreads out and it actually . . . it is a descent product. Moving on to Zoning; it was a pretty busy month; there were 53 permits. Zoning certificates are always the high one, but the one that is high this month is the peddler/solicitor permits and that makes sense. It is spring and going into summer and so we have had an increased number of those. Parks and Rec; we selected Brandstetter Carroll Inc. to do the Park Master Plan. They were the ones that did the Maca Plan and so we have a relationship with them. We are compiling the information that they have requested. The Food Truck Festival is May 20th at the Recreation Center. Maca Pool is having a soft opening on May 25th and that is for members only. That is between 2 the hours of 3:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. The official opening day is May 26th for Maca Pool. REGULAR MEETING in Council Chambers @ 7:30 p.m. May 10, 18 Dir. of Pub. Service (Cont’d.) Memorial Day starts with a concert at 6:00 p.m. at the Circle and it is a big band concert doing patriotic music and with that we are also having a pie and ice cream social with coffee, compliments of the Crimson Cup. Monday, May 28th the day starts off with the Pancake Breakfast that is done by the Chamber over at the Community Center and then followed at 10:00 a.m. with the parade and so make sure you mark your calendars for that. Ms. Jessica Simons would like to thank the Street Department as well as Randy Keen; they got the ball fields ready and we had two tournaments there this past month and like I stated earlier about the cemetery; it was an exceptionally wet month and so the fact that we were able to get those pulled is pretty impressive. Moving to the Water Department; there were two water main breaks; one at Ledgebrook and one at North Avenue. I would like to thank the Fire Department as well as Munroe Falls. That water break was right across from Triple Crown and the issue with that was that when we shut it off we actually killed the water to the Heather Knolls Nursing Home up there and so Munroe Falls came over and helped us so we could keep water; they actually back-fed our system from theirs which was one of the few times that we have actually had to do that, but it shows that it works and so it was kind of a unique exercise as well. The cool thing was there were no sewer backups. That is always a plus. We like that and then the Water Department was busy turning the water on and un-winterizing Maca Pool and the parks as well. The annual hydrant flushing was completed in 10 days believe it or not. It stretched into almost 25 and that was because we are trying to be conscientious of the weather. People’s yards were getting flooded naturally and they didn’t need us flooding them when we opened these up. Now there are a lot of benefits to the hydrant flushing. As you can see there are over 1,300 hydrants, but a couple of things that it does is it cleans the pipes and increases the water quality because it is flushing that system out. The big plus is that it is inspecting each hydrant in case there is a need for it and then it also finds the weak points. Those two water main breaks that we saw in the last slide were probably caused by us doing this because those systems are getting exercised and they sit all year thankfully because they are not being used by the Fire Department and they are busting those lose and we are getting those repairs fixed. The unique thing about it though is the fact that we went paperless. We have done it all digitally; it is on an IPad now and it is GPS’ing the hydrants and so as we go along it is a plus and so next year it should be even that much smoother. Thanks to the Fire Department for helping out with that as well. In the Street Department, there again, the theme is water. There were 5 culvert replacements; 400 feet of swale and ditch work. They did about 180 hours of pothole patching. They did a great job getting the Circle cleaned up as well as the cemetery. If you go over there now; it looks great. We prepped the Circle for the Little League Parade and then helped with the parks in setting out the picnic tables. We did go out to bid. Here are the proposed streets for paving. We are out to bid right now. Those are the ten main ones and the ones that have the red font behind them; those are pretty small sections of those streets and so, for example, Beachwood is only 230 lineal feet of pavement which isn’t very big, but if you go to that section it is horrible; I mean, it absolutely just a mess. The same way with Maca; that is 272 lineal feet and so those three are not very big sections, but they need to get done. They are excessively bumpy with constant potholes and they are not getting any better and so we need to do something with it. The bid opening for that is May 15th at 10:00 a.m. The next one; these are the proposed streets for concrete panel replacement and the bid opening for that is May 17th @ 10:00 a.m. The next one is the proposed sidewalk replacement and the repair locations. Those are the streets that are getting the proposed sidewalk repairs. Those are the ones that are heaved up or sunk down and 6,020 square feet; each panel could be roughly 5’ x 5’ so you are probably looking at well over 300 panels maybe depending on the size of that. Some of them are 5’ x 5’ and some of them are 4’ x 5’ depending on the size and where it was poured at. That bid opening is with the concrete opening. The lastly, we are changing the speed limit on the spokes 2,000 feet out from the Circle to 25 mph. We started softly with just the existing signs and we are starting to add more to it as we speak. Hopefully by the end of the month we will have them all done. It is kind of a critical area; you just can’t put signs in because of all the utilities running through these spokes and so you have to make sure that you are not pounding a stake or a sign post into something that you don’t want to pound it into. So; are there any questions? It was a busy month. Mr. Sisak: I think we had proposed a new playset for Lions Park? Dir. of Pub. Service: That’s correct. Mr. Sisak: Do you have an approximate installation date? Dir. of Pub. Service: They are hoping that it is in before the summer camp starts in early June. They are looking at having that done by that time. Mr. Sisak: Oh, OK. Pres. of Council: Thank you very much for all your hard work; we really appreciate it. 3 REGULAR MEETING in Council Chambers @ 7:30 p.m. May 10, 18 Dir. of Pub. Service: Thank you. Dir. of Finance: Thank you. Everybody received the financial reports for April. As you may have read; they are not the usual you know, rosy pictures that we are used to getting. Our income tax is behind right now; over 8% and so we are, in the Administration, monitoring what is going on. We have talked to Department Heads and I think as the Mayor had mentioned at the last meeting and letting them know and keeping them up to date on where we are at and so we still just continue to monitor those with fingers crossed hoping that by June or mid-year everything will level out and come back, but we are aware of it and we are monitoring it and we will keep you informed. End of report. Pres. of Council: Mrs. Gilbride, I did have a question and I’m not sure if you can address this or not because it has to do with the Rec Center Profit and Loss. I did notice the soccer league and instruction field rental and some of the rec programs; there is a huge decline in income. Are we just not offering the services anymore or . . . Dir. of Finance: The Rec Department is making some changes to some of their programming. Soccer; they had made some changes this year in terms of the length of the leagues because it was interfering with when outdoor started; it was overlapping too much and they were trying to get . . . so they are trying to rework some of those programs. There are . . . they did this year decide not to have a volleyball tournament intentionally and hoped to do some other programming to replace that revenue and so most of the revenue decreases that you are seeing in the Rec Center, for the most part are intentioned in those areas and they are trying to change the programming and move some of those items around. Pres. of Council: So they are working on trying to replace that revenue? Dir. of Finance: Correct. Pres. of Council: OK; because that is a pretty big decrease. Is there anything else for the Director of Finance? No one responded. Dir. of Law: Thank you. I have no report this evening. Dir. of Administration: Good evening. One thing to report; just really to inform you that next meeting, which I believe is the 24th, we are going to be offering legislation regarding the computer aided dispatch situation or agreement from the County that the County has with a number of jurisdictions around the County to upgrade our CAD for our dispatch center in Stow as well as Cuyahoga Falls, Summit County, Akron and Green in the initial kind of offering of upgraded software. There is a significant savings in doing it the way that it has been done. Surprisingly; surprising most of us about how much is going to be saved, but it is still a significant investment around the County and so that legislation will be presented at the next meeting as well as there will be a change in what we are paying our dispatch provider; the City of Stow at the Stow Dispatch Center and so there will be a contract associated with those changes. It will also be presented to Council at the next meeting. Pres. of Council: Thank you very much. Dir. of Administration: Thank you. Mr. Sisak: I have a question. I was thinking about that. Why isn’t . . . why don’t we just pay part of our rental or our contract with Stow; why is it separate for the CAD versus the service? Don’t they kind of go together? Dir. of Administration: OK, so if I understand your question correctly, I will respond in this way and you can redirect me if you like. We pay a certain amount of money annually; it is broken down in units throughout the year in how we pay. That amount of money is our primary contract. That is not going to change, however, there are . . . that contract continues. There are additional costs involved with this upgrade that is going on with Stow and around the County and so this new contract that we will have; that is the right way to describe it I believe; it is a separate, new contract and will describe the additional requirements for us to pay our part to be part of that. Does that answer your question? Mayor: Just if . . . if I can go just a step further on that. Mr. Sisak: I mean if we contracted with . . . say we contracted with Portage County; we would have to get a different CAD system and pay a different set fee for a different product? I guess that is where I am coming from. It is like; if you are going to provide a service; they should provide all of the service. I don’t understand what our portion is in the CAD system? Dir. of Administration: They are providing all of our service. Mr. Sisak: Right, but then why don’t . . . Dir. of Administration: The cost of operating that service or providing that service is increasing. Mr. Sisak: I understand; I understand. But why is the CAD separate from the dispatch service? Dir. of Finance: We are actually going to be paying for some things that we don’t have now. So we will be paying for our officers to be able to pull up calls on their MDT’s in their cars which they currently cannot do. Those are not things that Stow is required to provide for us as part of dispatch. Those are things that we are adding as part of the upgrade to provide to our officers to assist them. Mr. Sisak: I mean, I get it, but it seems like you were just complicating things because we have a separate service. We couldn’t run that CAD system by ourselves because we don’t host it and we don’t have any way of running it and so if we entered our contract with Stow providing dispatch we would have this CAD system in the MDT’S that are essentially worthless. 4 REGULAR MEETING in Council Chambers @ 7:30 p.m. May 10, 18 Dir. of Finance: But, we don’t currently have the CAD system in our MDT’s. They can provide us dispatch service without the items we are purchasing in the CAD for our officers. Mr. Sisak: Yeah, I understand, but it just seems like it is just messier than just having one contract say that you provide x, y and z as part of the dispatch service. Dir. of Finance: The reason it is going to be separate and to just kind of provide you . . . we are going to be the owners of the things we are purchasing and so if we ever left Stow . . . if we ever left Stow . . . Mr. Sisak: Well, that is what I am saying; are they ours? Dir. of Finance: All those things and all those licenses we are buying under this new contract are going to remain ours and it is separate because we want to keep . . . Mr. Sisak: Got you. That makes sense. Dir. of Finance: Our ability to keep those if we were ever . . . so if we ever wanted to switch dispatchers or if it does get down to where we get to a COG; we own the items we are purchasing through the secondary agreement and so we maintain ownership; well, Summit County owns it, but we would be the controller of it. Mr. Sisak: Got you. Mayor: We wanted to be able to pay Summit County direct instead of doing a pass through Stow since we are not a PESSAC and Stow is; the County wants Stow to be responsible for the Tallmadge portion and so therefore, all of these meetings that we have been having; we know exactly what Tallmadge costs are and it is roughly $200,000 and so instead of Stow taking that $200,000 and marking it up; they are taking that $200,000 and sending us the bill for $200,000 and we write Stow a check for $200,000 and they turn around and give it to the County. Mr. Sisak: I just wanted to make sure that we had something at the end of the day that made sure that if we did decide to do something different that it was transferrable. Mr. Sisak: Great. Mayor: Good question though. Pres. of Council: Yes, great question. Anything else. Nothing else for the Dir. of Administration? No one responded. Economic Development; Rita is not here? Mayor: Rita was unable to come tonight, but she has been extremely busy doing a lot of promotions with different groups out there like Summit Racing; we are putting a promotional piece together and doing personal interviews and photos. Bruce, our photographer, is going out with her and there are about four businesses she has been at so far. The promotion of Tallmadge; talking about Tallmadge and not their business. I know what I meant; I just didn’t say it that way. So she has been real busy with that. We are working with Park Ford with a couple of things at their facility down there and doing some property maintenance stuff that Rita has been working on also. So, she has been pretty busy. Maplecrest Golf Course; Nancy, who already left; they finalized the plat and recorded it and the land has been purchased even though the trees are all down; they finally made the purchase. Pres. of Council: So, I guess this would be where I ask; what is going on with the Ripley Farm? Mayor: The Ripley Farm; the whole issue with Ripley’s has been the sewer as I said before that this is really not as nice a site as you think, but Rita and I did meet with Tarpco; Tarpco is off of Portage Boulevard back in the annexed portion of Tallmadge to get an easement for a sanitary sewer so they are going to take sewer from the back half of Ripley’s; the back half of Just Cricket; the back half of Maplecrest and over to Tarpko through an easement that we actually own the road before, but we have . . . right beside our waterline and taking it out that way and so now that can be gravity fed instead of a half million dollar pump station in the back and so it will be all gravity fed going that that way, which that is where the sewer ends up going anyways; instead of pumping it around the corner; now it is going to be gravity which saves a lot of money and so things should start moving along fairly well because Tarpko agreed to that easement. Pres. of Council: OK, I was just wondering because the sign is still up as if it is still for sale. Mayor: It’s not closed yet; waiting on the sewer. Pres. of Council: OK; very good. Is there anything else? No one responded. We will go on to Item 10. 10. Ordinance 40-2018 At 3rd Reading.
