MAYOR'S REPORT. MAYOR SHARNSKY
Mayor Sharnsky: Congratulations. Madam President and members of Council, I just wanted to say that I'm
honbred to be serving as Mayor of the City of Fairlawn. I'm looking forward to working with you and the members
of Council just in a different capacity now. The only thing I have to report on is I've been busy the past few days
getting settled in. There are a lot of things happening, and I've been very busy meeting with the Department Heads
and getting settled into my new position.

I also wanted to report on an agreement that was signed with the help of Chief Wisener and the Law Director. We
were able to come to an agreement with the Copley-Fairlawn schools to place a resource officer in Fort Island school.
I think it's a very positive thing. I think it's a positive for the City, and I think it's a positive for the schools as well.
We're going to continue to work, as we've discussed with Council in the past, to work on a resource officer to be
placed at Herberich as well. Other than commenting on legislation as needed, that's all I have to report this evening.
Thank you.
Mrs. Potts: Are there any questions from Council for the Mayor? fThere was no response.]
DEPARTMENT OF LAW. R. BRYAI\ NACE
Mr. Nace: Good evening, Madam President. I have no report this evening.
Mrs. Potts: Thank you. Anything from Council? [There was no response.]
Chief Wisener: Good evening, Madam President and members of Council. I have no report this evening.
Mrs. Potts: Council? fThere was no response.] Thank you.
Chief Dobson: Good evening, Madam President and members of Council. I have no report tonight.
Mrs Potts: Council? [There was no response.]
BUILDING AND ZONING DEPARTMENT. WILLIAM ARNOLI)
Mr. Arnold: Thank you, Madam President and members of Council. Just one item. There is a Planning Commission
meeting this Thursday at 5:30 PM in this room. There are three items on the agenda. That concludes my report.
Mrs. Potts: Thank you. Comments from Council? [There was no response.]
DEPARTMENT OF ENGINEERING. GEARY VISCA
Mr. Visca: Good evening, Madam President and members of Council. Kenmore has moved all of their equipment onto
the site and started work on replacing the manhole. Today, they were doing setup for the bypass pumping. That's still
continuing. That concludes my report.
Mrs. Potts: Thank you. Does Council have any comments? fThere was no response.] Ernie, would you like to explain
to the audience about this fabulous manhole we've got going on?
Mr. Staten: On Sand Run Parkway, that's the main sewer that exits out of Fairlawn into Akron. This past summer, we
had a collapse of the liner inside the manhole, which could create big issues for the City of Fairlawn. As an emergency,
we went out to get a manhole built and now we are finally able to install it. You would think you could build something
fairly quickly, but it did take about four months to get it built. We're now finally getting it installed and just to couple
on Mr.-Visca's comments, we also have two detours going on. We have the detour of Sand Run Parkway from Revere
to Sand Run Road through the park. That really isn't a big inconvenience, but now we need an additional detour from
Marquette to Sand Run, or to Revere Road. That's so that we can set the pump in the correct location because in order
to replace a manhole, we have to pump the sewage from one sewer to another so that there's nothing running through
Page 3 of 12
Fairlawn City Council

APPROVED AS SUBMITTED
the manhole. So, that's where the pump will be placed. We have that detour, and it is going through the neighborhood,
but it seems like everything ran pretty smoothly this morning.
Mrs. Potts: Thank you. That is so complicated. Any questions? How about the audience, do you have any questions?
[There was no response.]
DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SERVICE. ERNEST STATEN
Mr. Staten: In Service, the only thing that I have is we do still have quite a few leaves out at the curb that are not in
bags. Those need to be taken care of as soon as possible because of snow plowing. We do accept the leaf bags at the
compactor, so it's still open for everyone to bring everything up. Of course, because of snow plowing, we don't want to
block driveways with the big leaf piles. That concludes Service.
Mrs. Potts: Thank you. Anybody on Council have any questions?
Mr. Gentile: Yes, I have one. Ernie, is there anything being done,I guess this goes to you and Bill both, anything being
done to notiff those homeowners that have large leaves to get them cleaned up? Are we doing anything?
Mr. Staten: Last week we sent letters to everyone that we saw that had these piles out at the road. In particular, there
is a location in this detour that is the reason why I wanted to make sure that it was brought up. It could become a problem
once winter hits.
Mr. Gentile: I understand. Thank you.
Mrs. Potts: Thank you. Any other questions? fThere was no response.]
DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE. MARK LT]DWIG
Mr. Ludwig: Your honor, Madam President. First thing. Two quick things on behalf of Finance. Number one,
congratulations. You have some shoes to fill, but please don't wear those brown brogues.
The second thing is congratulations to our new Mayor. He also has some shoes to fill and as long as they don't have
Buffalo Bills on them, we would appreciate that.
Mr. Gentile: Excuse me? Just because the Mayor has left, doesn't mean there's not a Bills fan on this Council.
Mr. Ludwig: Well, I'll rank you the same way I ranked the Mayor with his Bills fans and remind you of four events in
the Bills' past that have yet to be undone.
Mr. Gentile: I will clearly remind you that I would ask when was the last time the Cleveland Browns made it to a
Superbowl.
Mr. Ludwig: There was no Superbowl the last time they won. It was 1964 and I had the privilege of watching the
game.
Mr. Gentile: The Buffalo Bills won championships back in the AFC as well, so let's erase the slate and talk about
Superbowls.
Mr. Ludwig: Okay. That concludes my report.

Mrs. Potts: Any questions from Council? fThere was no response.]
Mayor Sharnsky: Madam President, there's no report from Parks and Recreation this evening.
Mrs. Potts: Thank you. That concludes the Report of City Officials. New legislation is going to be introduced into the

and the union has already approved the tentative agreement, so there is no hurry on this. As long as we get it passed by
the end of the year we should be fine, so we can go to our third reading. I'd recommend that you hold it for the next
Council meeting.

season. It's quite an achievement. I have daughters that were high school athletes and college athletes, and I know how
much hard work and dedication goes into what you guys have achieved. You guys are number one in the State. You
are students and that comes first, as always, but you're also athletes. To combine those two and make it work; I know
it's quite difficult. You had an outstanding season. I believe you were ranked number one the whole season, is that
correct? You didn't lose a match. You tied one match and didn't lose any matches all season. That's phenomenal.
We're very proud of you that you brought the State Championship home to Copley-Fairlawn High School, so
congratulations.

but we had a new Council President this evening and we couldn't sign it in advance.
Before you come up, you'll be in the permanent records of the City of Fairlawn. I think maybe you've heard that. If
you can step to the-microphone and maybe tell us who you are and what position you play, that way you'll be in the
iecord. If you have a difficult last name that's not Smith or Brown, you're going to have to spell your name so we get
it right. If you could step up one at a time, we'll start with the captains.
