Council Round Table/Committee Reports Mr. Adamek: I. Commended Mr. McDaniel and Mr. Johnson for a great job over the week -end with snow removal under very adverse conditions. 2. Stated that he recently met with Greg Kirstein, general counsel for the Columbus Blue Jackets and President of the Chiller regarding a request for City funding of spectator bleachers at the Chiller facility. Council has been given a packet of information tonight. He explained that he was contacted directly by Mr. Kirstein in his role as Chair of the Finance Committee of Council. The number of spectators have increased with the use of the facility by the Dublin High School hockey team as well as the figure skating groups. The cost breakdown for the permanent bleachers is approximately $40,000. Mayor Kranstuber noted that the City owns the land on which the facility sits, and at lease end in approximately 20 years, the City will also own the facility. Therefore, these improvements will benefit the City. Mrs. Boring expressed concern about a private venture asking for financial assistance from the City. In view of the recent discussions about the level of subsidy at the Rec .......... Center, she has a concern with now subsidizing the Chiller facility. Mr. McCash stated there is definitely a need for additional seating at competitions. His concern with this request is the fact that groups other than hockey teams who use the Chiller have experienced difficulty in securing a sufficient amount of ice time at a reasonable cost. City Council recently allocated bed tax money for the hockey tournaments. He is supportive of having additional bleachers at the facility, but his concern is with subsidizing one particular group of amateur athletes. He would suggest the request be reviewed through the normal bed tax application process. After further discussion, Mayor Kranstuber suggested that this matter be placed on the January 19 Council agenda under the "Other" portion. Council members will then have time to review all of the materials prior to making a decision. Council members concurred.
