Miscellaneous

During a budget discussion at the 10/19 meeting it was acknowledged that major problems and priorities in the coming year will continue to be the sewers along with street construction, maintenance and repair.

Taken from Meeting Minutes: “Mayor Sutherland stated that sewer flow testing will be done in 2017. Because it is the third year, the City can go back to the committee to see if it can be done a year early. There is a meeting in November and they may approach them at that time. Mr. Koomar stated that he thought the agreement was to come up with a new idea on the way in which we flow test. Mayor Sutherland stated that is all part of this. If we wait for the third year, it is paid for by the Rocky River Wastewater Treatment Plant rather than having the City spend $100,000 for a flow study.”

And just for fun: Motion by Tom Henderson to approve the request for approval of 2016 Bay Days. Set up - Tuesday June 28, and Wednesday June 29. The event beginning Thursday June 30, and extending through Friday July 1, Saturday July 2, and Monday July 4, with fireworks on July 4, 2016. Rain date for fireworks on Tuesday July 5, 2016. Motion carried 7 Yeas-1 Nay (Mayor Sutherland). The mayor is not opposed to Bay Days, just having a rain date, because of the difficulty of scheduling and overtime.
