Session 1727, Minutes <br />July 13, 1998 <br /> <br />next year, was having a bond issue election. They have tried, in the past, to work with <br />each other, in not holding simultaneous tax issue elections. <br /> <br />Mr. Sharpe said he normally is very much in favor of the school system, but in this <br />issue, his main concern are the residents of the Third Ward. He needs more <br />information on the particulars of the bond issue process. <br /> <br />AGENDA #3 - WASHINGTON/TRINITY STOP SIGNS: <br /> <br />Mr. Ollendorff said that the Council had directed on March 30, 1998 that information be <br />presented after a 90 day trial period regarding traffic law enforcement of the stop signs <br />and parking restrictions. Twelve citations were issued for stop sign violations and one <br />ticket for parking too close to the corner. We have received no comments from citizens <br />regarding the stop signs. We will continue to have the stop signs in place and enforced <br />on a random basis unless directed other wise by the City Council. <br /> <br />The Mayor said that the sense of the Council was to continue as is with no changes. <br /> <br />AGENDA #4: U. CITY LOOP SPECIAL BUSINESS DISTRICT ANNUAL REPORT <br />AND BUDGET: <br /> <br />Mr. Ollendorff said that the U. City Loop has completed another successful year and the <br />Council has their annual report and their budget for the year that started a couple of <br />weeks ago. <br /> <br />Mr. Schoomer moved acceptance of the annual report and budget. Mr. Munkel <br />seconded the motion, which carried unanimously. <br /> <br />AGENDA #5- POLICE GRANT APPROVAL: <br /> <br />Mr. Ollendorff said that he had requested approval for a grant application for a couple of <br />police cars and related equipment for the officers who were previously provided through <br />federal grants. Now they need a vehicle to ride in. <br /> <br />Mr. Munkel moved approval. Mr. Sharpe seconded the motion. <br /> <br />Mr. Lieberman asked what type of use would this unit be put to. Mr. Ollendorff replied <br />that this unit was on directed patrol. That means that they are not just assigned to one <br />area, but given specific, varied activities. Mr. Lieberman asked if this supplements what <br />is normally done. Mr. Ollendorff said that this is in addition to the normal patrols. <br /> <br />The motion passed unanimously. <br /> <br /> <br />
