ANNOUNCEMENTS: We do need to discuss the l liquor license application that we received last meeting and decide whether or not we want to hold a hearing for “Turn Up the Taste Catering” which is located at 137 East Avenue. They are asking for a D-1 permit which is the “Beer only for on premise consumption or in original sealed containers for carry out only until 1:00 a.m.” Does the administration have any more information on this place? Mayor: We are still trying to determine . . . Rita didn’t send you a report; did she? Pres. of Council: No, we didn’t get anything. Mayor: OK. I’m not convinced that you can have on-site consumption at that location. It is the same precinct as the Speedway Gas Station that you can sell it there, but it has not been voted on and that is what I have told her. The liquor people; it is not part of the liquor people; it is part of the Summit Board of Elections; Summit County Board of Elections chases you back down to the liquor people and so we are trying to determine, and she is doing research and so is the Board of Elections, as to if that precinct ever voted on for consumption for sale of alcohol, beer at that location; that precinct? Mr. Sisak: What type of establishment is this? It says catering, but how would you . . . Mayor: Do you know where the “Wag my Tail” dog groomer is right beside there they are putting in a catering business that would . . . like a little restaurant there that they want to serve . . Mr. Sisak: So you can eat there? Mayor: You can eat there but they are really about catering. You could sit down and get a sandwich and eat there, but . . . Pres. of Council: I did a little bit of research before . . . Susan just passed that over so you can share that with everyone . . . I think they started off as a food truck and it looks like they are mobile and catering. So that is a whole issue that we need to think about too if they are going to be running a food truck out of that establishment whether they can have a liquor license on a food truck. Is that something . . . Mayor: Well, it will be a mobile; it would either be site specific; it would not grant that mobile unit to have a liquor license. So, I would say . . . Pres. of Council: So can we still hold onto this? Mayor: I would hold onto it because I don’t have the report yet. I don’t have the deadline, but . . Mr. Sisak: Did they understand the application and what they are applying for like the applicant? Mayor: Rita has been in contact with them and working with them. Mr. Sisak: I just wondered if it would sway them if they just sold it for the catering and not consumption. Mayor: I can’t answer that. Mr. Carano: What is the size of the place that preceded this? Mayor: Do you know where White House Chicken was? REGULAR MEETING in Council Chambers @ 7:30 p.m. October 11, 18 Mr. Carano: Yeah. Mayor: That building; that spot. Mr. Carano: So it can’t be a large crowd of people in there sitting and I don’t know that the profit on people sitting would be that much. Pres. of Council: It says that responses for the liquor license must be postmarked no later than October 26th. Mayor: I mean; you can vote on it. If it is not allowed; it’s not allowed. Mr. Sisak: Well, we meet on the 25th right? Mayor: You said the 26th? Pres. of Council: It says these responses must be postmarked no later than the 26th and our next meeting is the 24th. Mayor: Oh, just hold it; we meet on the 24th. Just hold it. Pres. of Council: So, we will hold onto the liquor license until the next meeting and hopefully we will have more information. 9. REPORTS OF SPECIAL COMMITTEES: None. 10. AGENDA ADDITIONS: None. 11. REPORTS OF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICERS: MAYOR, DIR. OF PUBLIC SERVICE, DIR. OF ADMINISTRATION, DIR. OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, DIR. OF FINANCE AND DIR. OF LAW. Mayor: Thank you. I will start off with Jimmy John’s. There is a photo up there. That was the first purchase of this Jimmy John’s next door. That is the Manager of the business and she or he is the operator of this business or franchise and that is her. It is open and so they are going to do a formal ribbon cutting coming up in the future, but that has not yet been determined. Lions Park; if you have been in Lions Park; the dugouts; there was an Eagle Scout project and those dugouts are complete and we are going to have a ribbon cutting of those on October 24th at 5:30 p.m. and so that is our Council night; that is a Wednesday night at 5:30 p.m. over at Lions Park just to dedicate that and thank the Eagle Scout for doing those programs. I happened to go last Sunday to the Eagle Scout . . . remember the ga-ga pit? Kayne had his Eagle Scout pinning this past Sunday and so I did attend that. It was a pretty nice event. The First Apostolic Church ribbon cutting; that is on South Avenue and it is on October 28th at 10:00 a.m. at their service. I am going to attend their worship service that day and welcome them into their new building. It seems like it is the month of churches. Northwest Avenue Church is celebrating their 50th anniversary here in the City of Tallmadge and that is Saturday, November 3rd, and so I will be attending a little ceremony there with them. Maplecrest Golf Course; today we met with the DeHoff’s and actually if you came to Tallmadge Rotary this morning; for those Rotarians that weren’t there; we missed the three of you up there. They did present this . . . Dan DeHoff spoke at Rotary and just to give you a layout; this is Tallmadge Road, County Road 18 on the far north on the far right of that picture; that is the Cascades and this is the driveway going into the Cascades. There is a new traffic light there and there and they will be installed. A driveway going into Menards and Meyers. For those of you who used to play on Maplecrest; the ditch line is right here; that is still at the existing ditch line and so this is the Menards and Meyers; the commercial is up front and this is the future industrial park and these are just footprints of potential square footages that could go on. Then the out buildings out front. All of these are not definitely signed, but you can see there is a large portion and I will say that that one right there will be a Starbuck’s. You heard it here. So that was a nice meeting and it is really moving along extremely well out there. At the last meeting we talked about the budget. There is a lot of stuff on the budget. You will get that before our next Council meeting and the first meeting will be on the 24th. November 12th is Veteran’s Day and the ceremony will be at the Church of the Circle and it will be from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. and you will get more information as that come out, but you can put that on your radar. End of report. Contract negotiations; our first one will start next Monday; starting with the Teamsters and usually we have most of them done by now, but the groups elected just to wait until October and November to do it and I don’t believe we will have contracts signed by the end of the year, especially since we only have three more Council meetings after tonight. That’s Mr. Cooper. That’s it. Dir. of Pub. Service: Good evening. As the Mayor said, Veteran’s Day is November 12th and that will be from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. for the ceremony. Also, I would like to request that Council pass on 1st Reading Ordinances 80 and 81-2019. Let’s start with salt. We have been talking about salt the last couple meetings. Nothing has changed. We do have another bid in and it has lowered the price to $102 and the restriction has been lifted on that. This company is out of Indiana and they don’t have to deliver the salt by the end of November. They said we could get that as needed, however, they are . . . they would like to see it all ordered before the first of the year and so a little bit of change. By the next meeting we will have a re-appropriation and we are probably looking at anywhere between $80,000 to $130,000 for the re-appropriation for this and that could be between 2,000 and 1,500 tons of salt. 2 REGULAR MEETING in Council Chambers @ 7:30 p.m. October 11, 18 Mayor: Just so you know on that, our budget for 2019 was reduced by the amount of the re- appropriation that we are asking for this year. Dir. of Pub. Service: Cargill; that bid is still there, however, nothing has changed with them and the price is better but they are not guaranteeing anything and they won’t start delivering until January and so that still is an open crap shoot. The renewal of the garbage and recycle materials; this was renewed in 2017 and there is a price increase in 2019 and you can see that there. In 2018, we didn’t have a price increase. It is $1.25 quarterly increase and so you are going from $41.62 to $42.87. This was originally done in 2014 when we piggy-backed on the Barberton contract. Barberton opted not to renew and they went back out to bid and that is their number there; that red top line. They got a $57 quarterly rate and so I’m glad that we didn’t. You can see some of the other surrounding communities there and they are higher. Green and Mogadore are a little lower but I don’t know when they went out to bid. So, just kind of a heads up, in 2019, there is a $1.25 increase and then in 2020 there will be a $2.74 increase from the 2019 price. So, we always talk about lack of communication and I think it is imperative that we get that out there to the residents and if you get any questions on that . . . Mr. Sisak: Is that for unlimited I guess? Dir. of Pub. Service: Yup, nothing has changed. Mr. Sisak: We still have single bag? Dir. of Pub. Service: And remember that we talked about a month ago about the recyclables and they wanted to . . . so there is no increase in that either. Mr. Sisak: We are happy with Republic with their service? Dir. of Pub. Service: Yeah, they do a nice job for us. There are complaints, but they seem to turn them around within that day. We will continue to bring this up again; I don’t know how you get that out to the residents, but they need to know that. Moving forward, you can see in the cemetery it was another busy month there with burials and then in Zoning it was kind of a slow month. We only had about 35 permits; usually we are around 50. Parks and Rec; an interesting thing there is the new sound system before you couldn’t separate rooms and so now you can just page in a room and so if somebody’s is doing a yoga class or the spinning studio; you can take those classes out so they won’t be interrupted by the call of the music or whatever it is that is going on. Silver Sneakers and AARP Insurance; I’m not sure if you guys heard about this, but this is an interesting twist from that insurance company; AARP. They are no longer offering the Silver Sneakers package. Now they are going to do a 50/50 and so now those folks are going to have to pay 50% to join the Silver Sneakers. Right now we have about 450 people that use that insurance company and we have no idea what the outcome is going to be. It could be negative and at the end of the day you might have a bunch of people that were showing up to do healthy stuff like walking and doing those classes may decide not to take part in any of that because of that 50% that they weren’t paying before. Pres. of Council: So, the AARP; that would be the United Health Care Insurance; is that correct? AARP usually contracts with United Health Care I think. Dir. of Pub. Service: Yeah. Mayor: But there are quite a few options and right now it is the enrollment for Medicare Part B and A . . . Dir. of Pub. Service: It is kind of tough because we are getting asked the questions, but we can’t really steer anybody in one direction or another. Mr. Sisak: Well, I wonder if we can do an incentive after the first of the year you know; 50/50/50 we will pay 50% off of your 50% or something. We were getting like what; per pass per swipe I think it was $2 or $3 bucks wasn’t it? Mayor: $3.50 and so maximum was I think $35 a month as long as they came at least ten times. They could come 100 times a month; we don’t care, but we wanted them to come ten times so we could collect that full amount and so of the 400+ or 500; we were doing a report to see how many of those are actually active members and they are receiving letters from us saying that this is happening and there are alternatives, but we can’t say call someone down on West Avenue that can handle it. Dir. of Pub. Service: So, just so you guys know that. Also, the Halloween Street Dance is October 25th at 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Tonight was the last night for the Farmer’s Market and hopefully you guys all got out there. In the parks; the underdrains at Maca Ball Field have been installed and the new playground at the Washburn Park; that is the Stein Field is going on. Here is a photograph and you have 200 drains there with the two arrows; you can see one right behind the infield and then that drains into that long one along the sideline fence. Anyone that has played at Maca knows that is a swamp park. The new playground at Washburn. That has the rubberized surface and that is a great playground right now for that park. 3 REGULAR MEETING in Council Chambers @ 7:30 p.m. October 11, 18 Moving on to the Street Department, we did a lot of ditch work and drive culvert replacements; it was pretty extensive ditch even though the footage wasn’t there; that is still a pretty good size ditch amount. We did a lot of training. We have had several new hires this year and they went to the ODOT Snow and Ice training and then also the Drug-free Workplace. That is the retention pond at the school next to the new stadium site and we just got it mowed for the first time in we think 15 years. It was exceptionally wet and it wasn’t the easiest thing to mow. We still have some more areas we have to get in there and mow with a special mower with the cat tails. This is something that we should look at a little more closely. You should probably do a better job in mowing that on an annual basis instead of every 15 years. Mr. Sisak: That’s ours; that’s the City’s? Mayor: It is a regional detention pond. It was installed for the Rec Center for the 200 acres. We have an easement there. Dir. of Pub. Service: There are some allotments across the way that go into it. It is about 200 acres that goes into that. Mr. Sisak: You plan to dredge that out; the bottom? Dir. of Pub. Service: No, it just . . . Mr. Sisak: You want to leave it? Dir. of Pub. Service: Yeah, it needs mowed more frequently than we have been mowing it and so we are going to do a little bit more intensive maintenance to it. In the Utility Department; great thing; there were no water breaks or sewer backups. What you see there in that picture was a scheduled line repair. There was an actual leak there for about 5 years and the Water Department finally located it and so we are no longer losing water at that site. That was on Thomas Road. It wasn’t the easiest thing to do. You can see there was a fire hydrant as well as a house feed going in there. The house feed is the copper right there, but nice job by the Road Department. An interesting thing is the USMRFZPA testing and they test for it and some of those chemicals is just mind boggling that there would be chemicals like that in your water. So we are pretty fortunate here in the City that we don’t have any of that, but we still have to test for all of that and so we are pretty fortunate to have that resource. That’s my report for the month. Are there any questions? Mr. Loughry: Mr. Rorar, to get back to the salt; do you have any idea for this winter what the need will be and the capacity of the salt dome at the Summit DD site? Dir. of Pub. Service: I do not. That is a good point, but I don’t know what their capacity is up there or their need. Mr. Loughry: OK. Thank you. Mayor: If you can figure out somebody that can figure out what the need is for the winter; I think the minister left!! Mr. Loughry: The question wasn’t about our need; the question was with them vacating that site if it would be an additional opportunity for us. That’s all. Mayor: We have been in contact with them about the whole site. They will still be there for two years. Maybe longer. Pres. of Council: The Dir. of Administration is not here tonight. Dir. of Econ. Development is not and so we are on to the Dir. of Finance. Dir. of Finance: Thank you. I have been working on the budget with the Mayor and in addition to that in looking at the re-appropriation. I know my financial reports have been, you know letting you know that there is going to be re-appropriation. Fortunately in looking at that, I think we are going to be able to borrow from some other accounts to minimize the amount of funds that we will actually need out of the General Fund in addition to current appropriations and so that is good and so the General Fund actually is going to be able to absorb of the majority of the BWC re-appropriation that I mentioned in my report this month. We will require to transfer some additional funds to the Street Department and to the Fire Fund just based on the way we fund those. They don’t really have additional money to cover those re-appropriations, but that also will include the salt. There is going to be a little bit of borrowing from some of the payroll accounts to cover some of that additional salt also so that is good in the fact that we are not looking at, in addition to what we have already budgeted; we can kind of move some of that money around and so I am happy to see that. And then in addition, I would just request that you adopt Res. 20-2018. End of report. Mr. Loughry: Mrs. Gilbride; when we borrow money or move it from one account to the other; when we do the next year’s budget is it based on the movement of that money or do we still go back to . . . Dir. of Finance: Well, right now, I mean we know we are going to do that, but really with salaries we start from the beginning and so when I am talking about moving around the BWC, I am talking about moving money from one department salary line to another salary line. When we do do the budget, especially in terms of the salaries, we kind of start from what personnel do we have; it starts from zero and so we go straight; we don’t really . . . I mean we look at what we did last year in terms of how much overtime did we use you know for part-time people; how many hours did we work, but we really start at the beginning. We don’t take . . . 4 REGULAR MEETING in Council Chambers @ 7:30 p.m. October 11, 18 Mr. Loughry: We don’t budget from budget. Dir. of Finance: Right. Mr. Loughry: Thank you. Mr. Sisak: I have a question; I know we have been reinvesting our dividends . . . Mayor: The interest . . . Mr. Sisak: Yeah, Yeah, I don’t know if that is part of our financial policy, but I mean could we next year look at putting that into our budget? Dir. of Finance: Our interest revenue is considered a revenue source for each of our funds. Mr. Sisak: But, if we put it into like the General Fund? Dir. of Finance: Actually about 98% of our General Fund . . . is the interest that we earn on our investments goes . . . Mr. Sisak: Is being spent. Dir. of Finance: It is a revenue source that is available to be spent in the budget; correct. Mr. Sisak: OK, so we are not technically reinvesting it adding to our . . . Dir. of Finance: In fact, no, when I have an investment mature I actually do take the revenue; the interest on that investment and deposit that into our operating account and then reinvest the principal that we have had. The only account that the interest actually gets reinvested in is we have, and you will see it listed on the Investment Report, and it says US Bank and it is kind of about 1/3 of our investment revenue or our investment balance and that actually . . .that portion gets reinvested with that item, but the majority of the interest I earn. I actually do deposit and it is an available revenue source for us to spend. Mr. Sisak: That’s good to know. Thank you. Pres. of Council: The Director of Law is not here, so we are done with the reports of the administrative officers. 12. Ordinance 76-2018 At 2nd Reading. FINANCE Authorizing the Mayor to enter into an agreement with Trans-Foam Inc. for a New Jobs Program Grant pursuant to T.C.O. 160.05 and providing for imme- diate enactment.

FINANCE Expressing intent to sell unneeded, obsolete, or unfit Street Department equipment and tools by Edinburg Auction and providing for immediate enactment. Mr. Sisak moved for the adoption of Ord. 80-2018. Seconded Ms. Tricaso. Mr. Sisak: I have a question for the Service Director; I know we have sent other stuff out there and I know it stays until it gets sold, but have we had any luck with using this new organization? Dir. of Pub. Service: We have had great success using this and you asked a question the last time about what their commission is and it is 10% of every item sold. I think we have sold every item that we have taken out there so far. 5 REGULAR MEETING in Council Chambers @ 7:30 p.m. October 11, 18 Mr. Sisak: OK; great. Good to hear. Pres. of Council: I have a quick question on that too. Is it sold like auction style where they actually auction it off, or can you go there and they have stuff that you could buy as a sale? Dir. of Pub. Service: I think you can go there early and take a look at it, but it is done by auction. Pres. of Council: You are cleaning a lot of stuff out. Dir. of Pub. Service: You can see that some of that stuff is pretty old. Pres. of Council: Yeah. Roll Call: Mrs. Kilway, Mr. Loughry, Mr. Sisak, Ms. Tricaso, Mrs. Allman, Mr. Carano – unanimous. Ord. 80-2018 is adopted by a vote of 6-0. 16. Ordinance 81-2018 At 1st Reading.

Mr. Sisak moved for the adoption of Res. 20-2018. Seconded Ms. Tricaso. Roll Call: Mr. Sisak, Ms. Tricaso, Mrs. Allman, Mr. Carano, Mrs. Kilway, Mr. Loughry – unanimous. Res. 20-2018 is adopted by a vote of 6-0. 18. Resolution 21-2018 At 1st Reading. PUBLIC SERVICE Expressing support for Summit County Children’s Services on Issue 8 and pro- viding for immediate enactment. Mrs. Allman moved for the adoption of Res. 21-2018. Seconded Mr. Sisak. Mr. Loughry: Mrs. Kilway, please bear with me for just a second. If we choose to vote on this resolution this evening; I will be voting no. Not because I don’t support Children’s Services; actually I will probably, not probably; I will vote yes for this personally when I vote early probably next week. That being said; that is my whole point; many people vote early and I am always a Tallmadge first kind of guy. We have a School District levy that is on the ballot and some, maybe not many, but some look to see what we do collectively as a Council and follow that lead and there may be some that may have to make a decision of whether they will support Children’s Services or they will support the School District. They have to make a decision. I think from an appearance point of view that if we adopt this resolution tonight when people are going to make a decision to vote before we meet again, that could send a misleading picture, if you will, of what this Council supports. So, I would request that we do one of two things. Vote on this this evening and I will just vote no; hold it until we have an opportunity to get a resolution of support for our School District levy at our next meeting and vote on both of them at that meeting. So, that is just my point of view. That’s all. Thank you. Pres. of Council: For those that do remember, I’m sure you do remember, but for people that were not here, this resolution is in support of the Summit County Children’s Services who has Issue 8 on the ballot and a couple of weeks ago we did have Chelsea Finney who is part of the committee that is sponsoring the legislation and is trying to get the information out and if you do remember it has been I think it was 30 years since they have had an increase in their . . . they have not asked for a levy increase in the last 30 years and they have twice reduced the levy amount and the levy will increase the cost of an average $100,000 homeowner less than 10¢ per day or $35 per year. With everything that is going on with the opiate crisis, their services have really been to the brink and I think that does . . . yes it does help the Tallmadge residents. We have a lot of people in the community that are using Children’s Services because of the opiate crisis and people that we don’t even think about and so in my opinion, and this is just my opinion; I think it would do us a disservice not to express our support for it at this time. If the School District would like to come to us and have a resolution to have our support; I would support that as well, because yes; I will be yes on the school issue as well too. So, that is just my opinion. Is there any other discussion. Anyone else? No one responded. We do have a motion and a second to adopt Res. 21-2018. Roll Call: Ms. Tricaso - yes, Mrs. Allman – yes, Mr. Carano – yes, Mrs. Kilway – yes, Mr. Loughry – no, Mr. Sisak – yes. Res. 21-2018 is adopted by a vote of 5-1. 6 REGULAR MEETING in Council Chambers @ 7:30 p.m. October 11, 18 19. ADDITIONAL ITEMS: Just a reminder that our next Council meeting will be on Wednesday, October 24th instead of Thursday since Thursday is Beggar’s Night and the Street Dance. So, if you guys want to pass that information on to your other high school students that have to come to the meetings; it is Wednesday night. 20. ADJOURNMENT: Mr. Sisak moved to adjourn.
