She noted there are no current penalties. Mr. Michael Schmidt, Purchasing, stated if you have one downspout that can't be disconnected, they come out and say your whole house is exempt and give you a waiver. The waivers are necessary in some instances, but it shouldn't be for the whole house. He noted if the other downspouts can be disconnected, they should be. Ms. Boyles stated she wasn't aware of that. She asked Ms. Dorau if the Green Core staff could do the disconnections. Ms. Dorau stated if you train us, we can. - Resolutions Mr. Gilot asked what the added Resolution was. Ms. Martin stated the Board approved an agreement with the railroad for the west end quiet zone at their last meeting, but there was a resolution attached approving the agreement, that they actually should have approved.

Ms. Maradik explained its' a construction subsidy, not the cost of the new homes. She noted the homes in this area are not appraised equal to the cost of the construction, so this subsidy covers the difference. She further explained that by building the new homes, it helps to raise the values of other homes, and encourages further development. - Traffic Control Devices — Lafayette between Bartlett and Navarre Ms. Maradik asked how many "No Parking" signs this is for. She reviewed the paperwork and questioned who submitted this and why some of these signs are being placed. Ms. Boyles stated this was brought by the Police Department for visibility issues.

She noted she was only aware of the Bartlett St. problem, explaining there was a sign there that was never taken down.
