The August 13, 1990, meeting of the Personnel and Finance Committee was
called to order by its Chairperson, Council Member Ann Puzzello, at 4:05 p.m.
in the Council Informal meeting room.
Persons in attendance included Council Members Zakrzewski, Duda, Luecke,
Niezgodski, Soderberg, Puzzello and Sl4vinskas; Dale E. Balsbaugh, Theater
Director, Don Porter and Kathleen Cekanski-Farrand.
Council Member Zakrzewski requested that Bill No. 58-90 addressing fencing
for scrap and junk yards be continued until the August 27 meeting. He noted
that the Council Attorney, Mrs. DeClercq and the City Attorney have not had
the opportunity to meet to discuss issues raised at the last meeting.
Council Member Ann Puzzello then noted that the next item to be discussed
was Bill No. 60-90 which would appropriate $65,000 from the Morris Civic
Auditorium improvement fund for the purpose of purchasing administrative
equipment and spotlight at the Morris Civie Auditorium.
Mr. Dale E. Balsbaugh requested that$45,000 be appropriated for a box office and
administration computer and $20,000 be appropriated for spotlights. He noted
that networking would be made available through the computer system
operation and that an "800 number" could be installed by January 1, 1991.
Following favorable comments, Council Member Zakrzewski made a motion,
seconded by Council Member Luecke, that Bill No. 60-90 be recommended
favorably to Council.
Council Member Luecke then reviewed Bill No. 62-90 entitled "Schedule of
Ordinance and Code Violations" and Bill No. 63-90 entitled "Offense Related to
the Unlawful Taking of Recyclable Materials."
He noted that, in light of many programs such as Hope Rescue Mission and the
Near Northwest Neighborhood recycling, that a Bill of this nature was
necessary. Bill No. 62-90 would incorporate the fine into the ordinance
violation listing so that it could be collected through that office. Council
Member Luecke noted that the Council Attorney worked with him in revising
the City of Mishawaka's ordinance which was passed by that City when that
City began their recycling program.
