Session 1789 <br />July 24, 2000 <br /> <br />CITIZEN COMMENTS= <br /> <br />Versia Cross, 6847 Raymond and president of the Melrose/Roberts/Raymond <br />neighborhood association stated that the sidewalks and streets are worse than last year. <br />There is a huge hole in the sidewalk on Raymond and that a neighbor thought the water <br />company did it. A manhole is several inches lower than street level which they are running <br />into with their cars. The sidewalks are very uneven. There are many senior citizens in this <br />area and if they go out to walk, they are going to trip and fall. She said that some <br />neighbors have complained that when they set bags out by the refuse carts, the bags are <br />not being picked up. She said that many neighbors in her neighborhood are experiencing <br />home repairs that they just can not financially handle and she certainly would like to see a <br />program for emergency repairs as was recently asked for at a prior Council meeting. <br /> <br />CITY CLERK'S DOCKET: <br /> <br />BILLS FOR SECOND AND THIRD READINGS: <br /> <br />BILL NO. 8481 - AN ORDINANCE PROVIDING FOR THE REIMBURSEMENT <br />OF CERTAIN CITY OFFICIALS FOR EXPENSES INCURRED BY THEM IN <br />OPERATING THEIR OWN AUTOMOBILES IN TRANSACTION OF BUSINESS <br />FOR THE CITY, REPEALING ORDINANCE NO. 6210. <br /> <br />The bill was given its second reading. <br />The bill was given its third reading. <br /> <br />Mr. Wagner moved adoption.
