                TO ACCEPT A ONE-TIME GRANT FOR PARTICIPATION IN THE “POWER OUR COMMUNI-
                TIES PROGRAM”; AND DECLARING AN EMERGENCY.

     Ayes:   Paul Wertz, Stephen Stuart, Robert L. Valentine W1, Robert M. Valentine W2, Ruth Detrow

Mayor Stewart:  This is a Grant that was offered some time ago, kind of tracked it with other communities and the last number I had was 65 or 66 communities that had the offer on this.  The vast majority as I recalled in excess of 60 of them had accepted the offer.  We moved forward on it and this will go in and be into them post-haste, the appropriate word upon passage today.  It is in the amount of right at $230,000.00 dollars.  

Questions or discussion?

Robert L. Valentine W1: The only discussion that I had, I think when you brought this up originally, I had just wondered about it, that’s all.  Why waiver, getting this money.  I didn’t research it. I have no problem with accepting it.  

Larry Paxton:  The question I do have is, since this is a substantial amount of money, I could not find any place in the agreement where the money is to be deposited into.  

Paul Wertz:  I think we had discussed that; we had two options that we had come up with and no one had made a decision.  So, as a body, we have to decide how to handle it.

Mayor Stewart:  It should be a part of the Ordinance. I think one of the options was to apply it to the Street Lighting account so that we would not be burdened in the General Fund.  The Street Lighting is running I believe, $80,000.00.  So we could get two or three years of street lighting out of this if we chose to.  I don’t have a preference as to where it goes.  

Paul Wertz: You may have to make an amendment to it.  

Mayor Stewart:  I believe designation of the received proceeds would be in the best interests of all concerned.  

Ruth Detrow:  Shall we amend the Ordinance then?  I imagine we can.

Larry Paxton:  It would help me if you would make a motion or amend it of where you would like to have this money deposited.  The other way, it is just going to go into the General Fund and, it needs the money, trust me, but at the same time, we need a fund.

Paul Wertz:  I think we need an amendment to put in a line item with the account number of what the Street Lighting is.  We should have that amended number in there.  Don’t you think?  Steve?

Stephen Stuart:  Because it is a line item, you may have to establish a fund in order to do it.

Larry Paxton:  It is within the General Fund but it has a Street Lighting Department.  

Stephen Stuart:  But if we put it in there, it is not a fund.  How do you do that?

Mayor Stewart:  Create a receipt fund?  Revenue fund?

Larry Paxton:  Go into the General Fund, but be designated for the Street Lighting department or division of the General Fund.  

Stephen Stuart:  With the appropriation, when we appropriate then for like 2010, the appropriation will be, full amount?

Larry Paxton:  We will have to earmark that full amount for the Street Lighting Fund, yes.  

Robert M. Valentine W2:  I have a question.  We could pass this as accepting it.  Then at our first meeting of the year, we could designate it, right Glen?  Is that possible?  

Mayor Stewart:  We can revise an Ordinance or amend an Ordinance anytime we choose to.  

Robert M. Valentine W2:  But I am just saying, this is, all we are doing here is stating we are accepting it.

Mayor Stewart:  It will take another Ordinance, I am not the Law Director, but I think it takes another Ordinance.

Robert M. Valentine W2:  It would say an amendment to this Ordinance that we put it in that Fund.

Stephen Stuart:  However we do it, either way, unless we establish a separate fund; it is going to reflect in the unencumbered balance of the General Fund at the end of 2009.

Larry Paxton:  That is correct.

Robert M. Valentine W2:  That gives a false sense of security to the balance.

Stephen Stuart:  So that is why, would it make sense at all to establish a new fund and have it a Street Lighting Fund in which you would appropriate for as long as it is left out of that fund?

Robert L. Valentine W1:  I guess the question I have and maybe if you don’t have the money, you can’t get the money until 2010?  Does that make any difference?

Stephen Stuart:  Well, we can do it then.  So we are not going to be receiving it now?

Robert L. Valentine W1:  That is right.  Just authorize it.

Stephen Stuart:  It seems that we are probably all right the way that it is and then handle that designation when we get the funds.

Robert L. Valentine W1:  And I have no problem with what you suggested Mayor.

Ord. No. 99-09
Item  (c) AN ORDINANCE AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR TO ENTER INTO THE AGREEMENT REQUIRED
               BY THE OHIO OFFICE OF HOUSING AND COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS FOR THE ADMINI-
               STRATION OF THE HOUSING REVOLVING LOAN FUND FOR THE CITY OF ASHLAND, OHIO;
               AND DECLARING AN EMERENCY.

     Ayes:   Paul Wertz, Stephen Stuart, Robert L. Valentine W1, Robert M. Valentine W2, Ruth Detrow

Larry Paxton: This is something that we do every two years with the Ohio Department of Development Community Partnership.  We have revolving loan fund where some of those C.H.I.P. houses that we remodeled; some of those people do pay a portion of that back.  It has to go into this Revolving Loan Fund.  We have to have an agreement with this Community Partnership Housing, Ohio Office of Housing and Community Partnership.  

Mayor Stewart:  It is an ongoing process.  It has to be renewed every two years.

Ruth Detrow:  So it will be funded at the beginning of the year?  I know the C.H.I.P. funds always are used up entirely before the end of the cycle.

Larry Paxton:  True.  But this is for the agreement, the monies that those property owners have to pay back to us.  That payment goes into a Housing Revolving Loan Fund which is part of the C.H.I.P. Program, then it can be re-used in our C.H.I.P. Program.

Ruth Detrow:  So this is not actually funding new amounts of money?  Okay, got it.

Questions or discussion?

Ord. No.  100-09
Item   (d)  AN ORDINANCE AUTHORIZING AND DIRECTING THE MAYOR, DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC SER-
                 VICE, TO ENTER INTO A MODIFICATION OF THE WTP HIGH SERVICE PUMPS PROJECT –
                 THE OHIO DRILLING COMPANY CONTRACT AUTHORIZED BY ORDINANCE NO. 01-09; AND
                  DECLARING AN EMERGENCY.

Moved for non-reading in full by Ruth Detrow, seconded by Robert L. Valentine W1 to invoke Section 113.01 of the Codified Ordinances as the distribution of this Ordinance has satisfied the requirements of said Section and that a further reading be dispensed with at this time.
     Ayes:   Paul Wertz, Stephen Stuart, Robert L. Valentine W1, Robert M. Valentine W2, Ruth Detrow

Michael Hunter:  Good afternoon.  This original contract was put together on basically a best-case scenario.  The pumps are not available for tear down inspection so each bidder basically came on site.  They did their visual inspections, and then they put together their bid package.  Obviously, not being able to tear the pump down, not being able to do the inspection.  When they did their repair estimate, what we are looking at, the first two pumps have been completed.  We have $10, 937.00 dollars left on the original contract.  But I do not believe that will complete repair of the third pump, which is the largest of the three pumps to be repaired.  So we are requesting an additional amount.  I believe that the $25,000.00 is above the amount that we need but we did not want to have to come back to Council for a second time.  So we are asking for $25,000.00 dollars.  We believe that this will negate more than cover the cost even if they have the worse case scenario, replace the pump holes and shafts and everything.  We know this will cover it all.  This is what we are asking for to complete the project.

Questions or discussion?

Ruth Detrow:  This account, it has plenty?

Mike Hunter:  Yes, this money was identified as available by Larry Paxton, of course.  It is from the Water improvement Fund.  The original Ordinance of course was part Grant and part Operational Funds.  

Moved to pass Ordinance on first reading by Ruth Detrow, seconded by Robert L. Valentine W1.
    Ayes: Paul Wertz, Stephen Stuart, Robert L. Valentine W1, Robert M. Valentine W2, Ruth Detrow.

    Ayes:  Paul Wertz, Stephen Stuart, Robert L. Valentine W1, Robert M. Valentine W2, Ruth Detrow
                                        
   Motion carried.

Mayor Stewart:  Isn’t it ironic, it was the first Ordinance passed this year, 01-09 and now we are 100 Ordinances later.  

Robert M. Valentine W2:  Paul should I go ahead on that, before we do this?  

Paul Wertz:  Yes.

Robert M. Valentine W2:  I talked to Rick earlier before he took his flight and on all of these pay Ordinances; I mean all of these contracts with all of the different unions; and he told me basically, this is a boiler plate, but I asked him if it was possible to change this for next year because the second paragraph, where is says “Whereas Council and the Administration have conducted extensive negotiations with the Ohio, etc….”, I want it to read “Whereas, the Administration, on behalf of Council”; because I was not involved with any negotiations and I don’t think any Council member was, so I talked to them about just changing the boiler plate.

Mayor Stewart:  It is all right with me.

Robert M. Valentine W2:  You know, if I am negotiating and they want to yell at me, yes that is fine, but if I am not negotiating and they want to yell at me, that is not good.

Mayor Stewart:  Well, once you pass the Ordinance, your ears are wide open to be yelled at.  I respect what you are saying.  I don’t have any problem with that at all.

Robert M. Valentine W2:  That is the only thing that I talked to Rick about.  And I said I don’t have a problem with it this year, but I said maybe in the future.

Larry Paxton read Ordinance in full.

Larry Paxton:  The Finance Department respectfully requests that the Council amend this Ordinance:

Questions or discussion?

Stephen Stuart:  How close are we going to come on Income Tax Revenue this year to the original budget amount?

Larry Paxton:  As the Mayor and I have talked today and yesterday; it seems like daily we talk about that.  All along we have been trailing about 2% off of what our goal was.  It looks like we may reach that if everything goes well.   

Mayor Stewart:  Today we are $136,000.00 dollars short of our goal.  

Robert L. Valentine W1:  We projected what, $7,750, 000.00.  We are at $7, 614,000.00.  

Stephen Stuart:  The General Fund Revenue surprised me a little bit, the Real Property Tax, since you are always paying that a year behind.  You know what it should be, which means that the delinquencies have to be really up.

Larry Paxton:  I believe they are.  There are some delinquencies.  We are seeing a lot of foreclosures unfortunately, in our community. Not unlike every other community that is suffering.

NEW BUSINESS:
(a)    Building Permit: Jeremy Younce, 1006 Cottage Street, Ashland, Ohio  44805 – (Garage)  M-2, located on the west side of Cottage Street between west 11th Street and Railroad.

Paul Wertz:  Is Jeremy Younce here?  Are there any problems with this?

Shane Kremser:  I would suggest that Council table this until Mr. Younce is here to present what his plans are.  This is a convoluted zoning issue.  It is a Residential property in an M-2 District.  

Paul Wertz:  According to this map, it looks like right up next to the right-of-way.  

Shane Kremser:  It is permitted.  We are going to clarify that.  We cannot go beyond that.  There is no setback.

Robert M. Valentine W2:  He runs a Sanitary Service.  So basically that garage is to fit his sanitary truck in, right?
Because I see the truck parked there.  I know what the guy does.  He came in here before.    

Shane Kremser He needs to present it to Council.  The Ordinance states that, because it is an M-2 district, it is for Residential use and if that is what he is presenting it as, Council needs to approve it.

Move to table Building permit by Ruth Detrow, seconded by Robert L. Valentine W1.
    Ayes: Paul Wertz, Stephen Stuart, Robert L. Valentine W1, Robert M. Valentine W2, Ruth Detrow.

    Motion carried.

Valarie, Council Clerk:  I will send Mr. Younce a letter, asking him to be present at our January 5, 2009 Regular Session.

Mayor Stewart:  I need to request that we adjourn to an Executive Session to discuss potential court action.  I covered this with Rick and he has me lined up with what I should share with you.  It will take maybe 10 minutes.  No action will be taken.

Motion to move to Executive Session by Paul Wertz, moved by Robert L. Valentine W1, seconded by Robert M. Valentine W2.
    Ayes: Paul Wertz, Stephen Stuart, Robert L. Valentine W1, Robert M. Valentine W2, Ruth Detrow.

Moved to Executive Session at 4:30 p.m.

Motion to return to Special Session by Paul Wertz, moved by Robert L. Valentine W1, seconded by Robert M. Valentine W2.
