A year ago, several Post Road residents came to Council to discuss this situation, and they were promised that before January of 1999, something would be done. Post Road is excluded from the traffic calming policy of the City, as the speed limit is 35 mph. He has contacted the Police many times, and they have run radar along Post Road on many occasions. He has returned to Council tonight to ask them to follow through on their commitment to address the speeding problems along Post Road. Al Gleine, 5365 Adventure Drive and Joan Eggspuehler. 7051 Coffman Road stated that they are present tonight representing the Merchants of Old Dublin (MOOD) and the Old Dublin Association. They would like to thank Council members for their support over the past year in addressing problems in Old Dublin. They are looking forward to working with Council on the revitalization program for Old Dublin. They wished Council and their families a Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year. ............. Sherm Liddell. 3838 Summit View Road stated that he is present tonight to respond to any questions regarding the petition for sewer service from northeast quad residents. He took the petition to neighborhoods in his area, and out of 28 homes, he was able to secure signatures from the 25 who were home. Many of the residents in the area are quite upset that they do not yet have sewer service. He has been researching this possibility since 1990, but without any resolution. Most of the homes he surveyed have septic systems which are failing, and there is raw sewage in some of the open drainage ditches, constituting a health issue. He noted that an adjacent new development, Campden Lakes, will have sanitary sewers, yet those who have lived in this area of Dublin for 20 to 30 years do not have sewers. In the Tax Reform Act of 1986, there was an amendment providing that annexed properties brought into a municipality be given the same facilities and services as the majority of the other homes in the municipality. He is asking that Council consider this petition very seriously. He noted that anyone who would like to speak with him about this matter should leave a message on the voice mail at his residence. Mayor Kranstuber stated that if, in fact, there is substantial interest in sewer service by the residents and if a majority of Council believes it would be appropriate, he would move to direct staff to do an engineering study for sewer service for the area outlined in the petition, and other immediately adjacent areas. Mrs. Boring seconded the motion. Vote on the motion - Mr. Adamek, yes; Mayor Kranstuber, yes; Mr. Reiner, yes; Mrs. Boring, yes; Mr. McCash, yes; Mr. Peterson, yes; Ms. Hide Pittaluga, yes. Mayor Kranstuber asked staff about the time frame for the study. Mr. Kindra responded that he would have the report within 90 days. Mayor Kranstuber asked that staff provide copies of all of the information to Mr. Lidell, and contact Mr. Lidell ifthere are questions about the specific areas included in the petition. Mr. Hansley stated that staff would then schedule a meeting with the neighborhood to share the information from the study. - Staff Comments Mr. Hansley commented that Y2K preparations for the City are being finalized. He asked that Council members notify him or the Clerk of a phone number where they can be reached during the New Year's holiday, in the event there is a need for a special meeting. Mr. Helwig reported: 1. Staff is looking forward with great anticipation and a sense of accomplishment to the Emerald Parkway bridge opening ceremonies on Friday, December 17, 1999 from 4:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. The bridge will open to traffic at 7 p.m. that evening. The project was completed on time due to the efforts of staff and the general contractor, Lee Guzzo. 2.

FORM NO. 10148 December 13, 1999 Held (YEAR) Community Church from 6 to 8 p.m. regarding the results ofthe water and sewer service studies which were recently commissioned for several Dublin neighborhoods. Following the public input session, a policy discussion with Council will be needed. 3. Council was recently notified about the addition of375 IBM jobs to the Dublin community. This constitutes the Columbus regional office, located now in the Atrium Two building, and the 375 jobs are in addition to 400 IBM jobs which came to Dublin last year. IBM officials commented that the roadway network and planned roadway improvements were a factor in their selection of Dublin as a regional office location. Mrs. Boring asked if the sanitary sewer tap fees proposed for the neighborhoods under study are based upon the current rates, or whether they are the rates which were in place prior to 1992 and which were to be grandfathered for this group. Ms. Grigsby responded that the report includes the current sewer tap fees. Council can discuss this matter further at the policy session. Mayor Kranstuber stated that he might not be able to attend the water and sewer meeting due to Mayor's Court tomorrow night. He asked that a report be provided to Council in follow-up to the meeting. Mr. Helwig responded that a report will be generated by staff with a list ofthose who attended, their comments, and issues raised. Mayor Kranstuber asked that this item be placed on the agenda for a January meeting. - Mayor Kranstuber noted that the bridge opening is scheduled on Friday at 4:30 p.m. Ms. Puskarcik noted that the guests and dignitaries will assemble on both sides of the bridge and process to the center, where the ceremonies will take place. i-- SECOND READING/PUBLIC HEARING - ORDINANCES Ordinance 08-99 (Amended)- An Ordinance Providing for a Change in Zoning for 70.5 Acres Located on the East Side of Hyland-Croy Road, Approximately 3,800 Feet North of Post Road in Franklin and Union Counties, from: V-I, Rural District. (Jerome Township Zoning Classification), to: PLR, Planned Low Density Residential District. (Park Place, previously known as Metro Park Place/File No. 98-133Z) (Applicant: Columbus Builders Supply, Inc. 807 W. Third Avenue, Columbus, Ohio 43212; represented by Ben W. Hale, Smith and Hale, 37 West Broad Street, Columbus, Ohio 43215). Ms. Clarke noted that this development was originally called "Metro Park Place." It includes 70.5 acres located on the east side of Hyland-Croy Road. Currently, the zoning is U-1, Jerome Township and the request is for Planned Low Density Residential. The proposed development is a single-family neighborhood of 160 lots and 4.77 acres of parkland. Council previously approved a waiver for the requirement of on-site park dedication, and accepted instead the applicant's agreement to sell at a pre- determined cost the Smith Farm to the Metro Parks Board. While this site actually had no requirement for an on-site park, staff appealed for a neighborhood park, and the developer provided a four acre woods as well as a substantial setback along Hyland- Croy Road. The applicant is also requesting a waiver of the tree replacement requirement tonight. Ms. Clarke noted that Planning Commission recommended approval by a vote of 5-0 with 16 conditions contained in the Record of Action of November 4, 1999. The Commission approved a second motion to accept a four-acre park within this site, and a tree for tree replacement within the Westbury subdivision. Conditions are: 1) That agricultural scenic road guidelines be applied to this plan, including a 200- foot open setback area, measured from the edge of right-of-way to edge of right- of-way, subject to staff approval; 2) That the formal subdivision name be changed to avoid confusion; 3) That a tree protection and replacement plan be prepared as a basis for the utility/grading plans, indicating the trees to be removed, utility placement, grading, and tree protection methods, etc., subject to staff approval; 1-; ,iT--n-1 ,I ::1,1" fili'i i;IINi:~JI"iii Ji i ,Flllii I dll;jF~ Iii, .;lil'il, HI - :, : !

Mr. Reiner asked about staff's method for conducting the tree count. Ms. Clarke stated that there are 169 trees representing about 2,000 caliper inches. The developer has agreed to replace these on a tree per tree basis with 2 1/2 inch caliper trees. She clarified that these are not street trees, but would be trees in addition to that requirement. Therefore, the replacement program would provide 350 inches of trees for the 2,000 inches removed, plus the donation to the park system of four acres of mature trees. - Ms. Hide Pittaluga asked how this rezoning affects the Metro Park plan. Mr. Helwig responded that, back at the time when the Metro Parks had no commitment for land for the park, the 29-acre Smith parcel was secured under contract with a provision that closing was contingent upon approval of rezoning for this 70 acres. Since that time, the Planning staff identified four acres of heavily wooded area that would be desirable for additional green space. In response to Ms. Hide Pittaluga, Mr. Helwig gave a brief update on the Metro Park development. There are now over 600 acres under contract. On Council's agenda tonight is annexation of the Bishop Trust property which would open the door for consideration of other Bishop Trust parcels on the west side of Hyland-Croy and the Mitchell properties along U.S. 33. It appears that the Metro Park may exceed the 800 acres. ,..-... Mrs. Boring noted that the language in Section 1 of the ordinance should read "Planned Low Density Residential District." She moved to amend the ordinance to revise Section 1 to read, "Planned Low Density Residential District. " Mayor Kranstuber seconded the motion. Vote on the motion - Mr. Adamek, yes; Mayor Kranstuber, yes; Mr. Reiner, yes; Mrs. Boring, yes; Mr. McCash, yes; Ms. Hide Pittaluga, yes; Mr. Peterson, yes. Mr. Reiner expressed concern about future development and its impact on this two-lane road. Ms. Clarke responded that the development is anticipated, and the ultimate transportation system will accommodate the development.

" Dublin City Council Meeting Page 5 DAYTON LEGAL BLANK INC. FORM NO 10146 December 13, 1999 Held - (YEAR) Mr. Reiner suggested that in view of the fact that traffic is a major issue in Dublin and that major infrastructure improvements are not in place, it might be wise to discourage rezoning applications in these areas. Ms. Clarke responded that it has been the Planning Division's policy to secure dedication of right-of-way in conformance with the full Thoroughfare Plan and to require developers to build left turn lanes and through streets. In general, residential developers have not been required to expand the perimeter roadways, although there have been cases of lump sum monetary contributions toward the larger transportation system, i.e., Heather Glen contribution to Emerald Parkway. Wallace Maurer asked ifthis 70 acres is part of a larger tract which Dublin and Columbus had agreed to develop as a park. Mayor Kranstuber responded that this area is adjacent to the planned metro park area. Ben Hale, Smith and Hale commented that both this tract and the Smith tract are currently under contract. The sale of both of those tracts is contingent on this rezoning. Upon the rezoning, Metro Park is obligated to close on the Smith land purchase. The closing date set is for January 15, 2000. He noted that they are dedicating 4.5 acres of heavily wooded land as open space, and they have maintained a 200-foot setback along the frontage. They accommodated the requests of the Planning Commission for this proposal. In terms of architecture, they will adhere to the Belvedere requirements of all natural materials. - Tree Replacement Waiver - Park Place Mr. Hale stated that they would make reasonable good faith efforts to save as many trees as possible. The trees taken down will be replaced on a one for one basis, per staffs' approval. Mr. McCash asked for an estimated value of the replacement tree waiver which is being requested. Ms. Clarke responded that the fee would be approximately $200,000. Mayor Kranstuber clarified that what the developer is requesting is not really a waiver of the tree replacement fee, but rather an alternate replacement program. Mayor Kranstuber noted that he appreciates the fact that the plan includes a large setback along the frontage, but wants to clarify that he is not necessarily in favor of a policy of allowing parkland credit for large setbacks if and when the "Road to Wow" program is adopted. The community needs active parks. Mr. McCash noted that four of the lots appear questionable on the plan as proposed because of their triangular shape. Mr. Hale responded that they reviewed the plan and believe it will meet all of the setbacks, provide back yards, and accommodate a house on each site. The four lots in question are wide lots, but they are adequate in size. Mr. McCash suggested that it might be more practical to provide a 20-foot easement through this area to allow pedestrian access to the parkland. -- Ms. Clarke stated that these issues would be addressed at the preliminary plat stage. She noted that there was some kind of a disclaimer on the plan forwarded to Council which states that the plan was prepared by the developer in response to requests by the Planning Commission. Staff has not tested all of those lots to date and that will be done. Mr. Hale noted that they are willing to provide a pedestrian access to the park. Mr. Reiner asked if the bikepath would be constructed before the houses are built so that buyers are aware of the location of bike paths. Mr. Hale responded that they are required to install the paths before the houses are built. Keith Blosser, Vice President. Wyndham Village Homeowners Association noted that their Association has concerns about the tree preservation waiver being requested. They II ,I' I" ~ ,: : !' '" '" '1'1'1 I : : !

FORM NO. 10148 December 13, 1999 Held (YEAR) ~ are requesting that Council vote against the proposed swap. They assumed that the tree preservation ordinance would be considered subdivision by subdivision in order to create a balance and improve the quality oflife for all residents of Dublin. In the proposed swap, the losers will be Westbury and Wyndham Village. In addition, the residents of Wyndham Village have concerns about construction traffic that could be routed through their subdivision. He asked that Council address this matter as well. Mr. Reiner asked if the developer could designate the entrance off of Hyland-Croy as the construction entrance. Mr. Hale responded that by June of2000, the bridge will be operational and therefore the construction traffic can be routed through that entrance. Ms. Clarke stated that this item is normally addressed at the preliminary plat stage, but Council can add a condition to the rezoning ifthey prefer. Mr. Adamek moved to add a condition that phasing of the construction for Park Place would commence with the area off of Hyland- Croy and proceed to the east, and that the construction traffic associated with Park Place would not be routed through the existing neighborhood. Mr. Reiner seconded the motion. Vote on the motion - Mr. Reiner, yes; Mrs. Boring, yes; Mr. McCash, yes; Mr. Peterson, yes; Ms. Hide Pittaluga, yes; Mayor Kranstuber, yes; Mr. Adamek, yes. Mr. Hale noted that they will make every attempt to save all trees possible, but construction will require removal of some. Planning Commission believed that saving 4 Y2 acres of mature woods was a good option. - Mr. Adamek commented that the Wyndham Village Homeowners Association worked closely with Planning Commission and with Mr. Haid during the previous zoning proposal on this site. When Mil brought this to the table, the Association requested again that the wooded areas be preserved. Since that time, Council approved the tree preservation ordinance. This proposal was in process during that time. He is confident that Mil's proposal provides optimal tree preservation, and the agreements effected as part of this rezoning will improve the overall quality of life for residents. This plan is a good one and maintains the integrity of previous agreements. He asked that when the utilities are brought through, that they avoid cutting a path through the wooded area in order to preserve more trees. Mr. Hale agreed. Vote on the Ordinance - Mrs. Boring, yes; Mr. Reiner, yes; Mayor Kranstuber, yes; Mr. Adamek, yes; Ms. Hide Pittaluga, yes; Mr. Peterson, yes; Mr. McCash, yes. r--, Mayor Kranstuber moved to approve the replacement tree waiver for Westbury as recommended by Planning and Zoning Commission and as outlined in Mr. Hale's letter to Council dated December 9, 1999. Mrs. Boring seconded the motion. V ote on the motion - Mr. McCash, no; Mr. Peterson, yes; Ms. Hide Pittaluga, yes; Mr. Reiner, yes; Mayor Kranstuber, yes; Mr. Adamek, yes; Mrs. Boring, yes. Mr. Peterson noted that he received a letter from the Smith family concerning the Metro Park and requesting that the family name be preserved in some way. Mayor Kranstuber stated that he referred that letter to Mr. Hahn. Mr. Hansley stated that the actual piece of land for which they are requesting naming rights is a City park, so Council will be able to accommodate that request. Mr. Hahn is working with the family on this matter. Mr. McCash left Council Chambers at this point. i I I II I I ;I!

(performance Films, Lot 9, 6365 Rings Road/File No. 99- 077Z) (Applicant: Tara Group, L TD, 6365 Shier-Rings Road, Dublin, Ohio 43016, owner George Lewis) Ms. Clarke stated this the land is currently zoned PCD for several commercial uses, warehouses and some limited retail. They want to expand the existing business, and could not meet the side-yard requirements in the PCD text. They would like to reduce that requirement to 25 feet. This is the only issue under consideration. The site consists of two acres located on the south side of Shier Rings and is mostly developed. The Planning Commission recommended approval on November 4, 1999 with three conditions by a vote of 5-0. 1) That landscape plan be revised to conform to Code, subject to staff approval; 2) That a revised site plan, landscape plan, and zoning text be submitted within two weeks and be acceptable to staff; and 3) That evergreens be added along the west elevation to visually screen the metal siding, subject to staff approval.

Edison, 438 East Wilson Bridge Road, Worthington, Ohio 43085. ) Ms. Clarke stated this site is currently zoned PCD and consists of an out parcel located in front of the A very Square shopping center. It is currently zoned for fast food restaurant, bank or other service uses. The proposal is to put a fast food restaurant with a drive-through on a site that is zoned for fast food. The issue is that they are not able to comply with the parking code requirements. The only revision to the text that is under consideration would permit a 4,400 square foot restaurant to be built with 53 parking spaces. There is also an agreement in place that 15 off-site parking spaces be secured to provide employee parking. -- Mayor Kranstuber asked how many parking spaces would actually be required under the Code, and if there will be a stacking issue in relation to parking. Ms. Clarke stated that Code requires 88 parking spaces. In terms of stacking, Planning Commission has reviewed this matter as part ofthe conditional use application. The McDonald's site across the street is much smaller than the site in question, and the Burger King site will have more stacking around the building than McDonald's. She added that the McDonald's plan also was recommended for disapproval, and came to Council on a request for an override vote. This proposal, however, has the endorsement of both staff and the Planning Commission.

Will this be routed through the existing neighborhood? Mr. Hahn stated that staff anticipates signing a contract in the next few days, and the project will be somewhat weather dependent. It will be routed through the existing neighborhood after other alternatives were reviewed. The trucks could be routed south via a temporary stream crossing and onto Post Road, but this would require cutting a path through the existing mature trees along the creek bed. The other route considered was through part of the Karrer Middle school site which could potentially do significant infrastructure damage. Mr. Reiner stated that the excess topsoil could be used for mounding on the Muirfield/ A very Boulevard area. Mr. Helwig responded that there is an allocation in the upcoming year 2000 CIP for the Muirfield/ A very boulevard proj ect.

Mayor Kranstuber introduced the ordinance. Mrs. Boring commented that she would prefer to have a policy discussion in regard to the Community Hall usage. When it was first discussed, there was no direction given for an 80 percent cost recovery. It now appears to be more of a social hall than a community gathering facility. Mr. McCash commented that his concern relates to the proposed fees for the meeting rooms. He would prefer that meeting rooms be made available to civic associations at no ' cost. Mayor Kranstuber commented that the rates are more reflective of a country club instead of a public facility. After discussion, it was the consensus of Council to schedule a Finance Committee of the Whole meeting on Monday, January 10,2000 at 7:00 p.m. to discuss the fees as proposed in the ordinance. r;;r--. Ordinance 138-99 - An Ordinance Amending Ordinance 14-96 Passed April 1, 1996 to Extend the Period During Which Previously Identified Improvements to Certain Parcels of Real Property Will be a Public Purpose and the Owners Thereof Will Be Required to Make Service Payments in Lieu of Taxes, and Providing for Payment of a Portion of Those Service Payments Received During the Extension Period to the Dublin City School District, and Declaring an Emergency. Mr. Adamek introduced the ordinance. Ms. Grigsby stated that this revises existing legislation that established the Thomas/Kohler tax increment financing district. The City has an agreement with the school district whereby the City does not have to revenue share with them for up to ten years, or $3 million dollars, whichever comes first. This legislation proposes that after those terms are met, that the City would then implement a non-school TIF and continue to receive service payments to fund a portion ofthe Emerald Parkway overpass project. This concept was first identified and discussed as part ofthe Qwest incentive package. There will be a second reading and public hearing of the ordinance at the January 3, 2000 meeting.

Ordinance 144-99 - An Ordinance Extending the Temporary Rezoning Moratorium in the Southwest Area of the City, and Declaring an Emergency. Mr. Adamek introduced the ordinance. Mr. Smith stated this was prepared at the direction of Council. The southwest area plan has not been completed as of this date and the "Road to Wow" program is underway as well. For these reasons, Council requested legislation extending the moratorium for an additional two months. Brief discussion followed about the proper form of the legislation, i.e., resolution or ordinance. Mrs. Boring stated that she would prefer this action be done by resolution which would not require emergency passage or an additional public hearing. Mr. McCash stated that he is concerned that Council has repeatedly extended the moratorium. The Planning Commission just received another revision of the southwest area plan from the consultant, and there are still considerable concerns with the document. The issues are not being resolved. - Mrs. Boring moved to amend Section 1 to extend the moratorium until June 30, 2000. This should allow adequate time for the plan completion, and if Council wants to lift the moratorium earlier, that can be done. Mr. Reiner seconded the motion. Ms. Hide Pittaluga stated that she believes Council needs to address the issues instead of extending the moratorium for an additional period. Mr. Adamek commented that Council should use the 60-day moratorium period to make decisions on the future of the southwest. Planning Commission needs to move forward and make a recommendation. Mr. Reiner suggested taking this back from the Planning Commission and referring it instead to the Community Development Committee. Mr. McCash commented that Planning and Zoning's concerns relate to some of the provisions in the conservation subdivision design section. There is also a clear conflict between the "Road to Wow" program and what is being proposed in the southwest area plan. - Mr. Reiner stated he would like to talk directly with the consultant to see what the problems are. The process has been far too long at this point. Mayor Kranstuber agreed with Mr. Reiner. In fairness to the Planning Commission, he attended the Thursday night session for the southwest plan presentation. The consultants thought they were there for a vote, while the staff wanted simply an informal discussion. Is it possible to conclude this with one more meeting at the Planning Commission? Ms. Clarke responded that the only action which would have been taken by the Planning Commission on Thursday was a vote of disapproval. Her feedback indicates that the plan needs to be broken down into separate ordinances. There have been problems in working with the consultant, but the basic problem is the heavy workload at the Commission. A special session is needed for this item. A meeting for the "Road to Wow" program has been set for January 8, 2000. .

Mr. McCash stated that the goal was to create something special in the southwest. Now, however, a proposed golf course development could serve as the focal area for the southwest, thereby changing the entire complexion ofthe southwest. Mr. Reiner stated that the concept was to come up with a unified plan to maintain a rural look. If the concept was successful in the southwest, it was then to be used in other parts of the City. Mayor Kranstuber asked Ms. Clarke to communicate to Planning Commission that Council would like a recommendation on the plan by February.

OTHER Skate Park Recommendation from Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission Patrick Enright Chair of the Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission stated that the proposal before Council at this time has been reviewed by the Commission. There is a large segment of the community that is interested in this alternate form of recreation.

FORM NO 10148 December 13, 1999 Held (YEAR) Mayor Kranstuber asked about the next step in the process, should Council approve this concept. Mr. Hahn stated that the next step would be developing the budget and determining the location. Mr. Peterson asked if there are any renderings available of such a skate park. "...--, Mr. Hahn stated that it would consist of a series of bowls and ramps. (Mr. Enright distributed to Council some renderings.) The maintenance costs would be related to the quality of the construction itself, based on his discussions with other cities. Mr. Adamek asked how this would fit into the future park development program. Mr. Hahn responded that one of the assumptions of staff is that the entire community would use such a park, and therefore it would not be appropriate for a neighborhood park. Discussion took place about the various park locations which would have the accessibility and the unprogrammed land available to accommodate this facility. Council members indicated they were supportive of the concept. Mr. Adamek commented that his only concern is with the location. He would be more in favor of this type of programming at Darree Fields where it will not impact the existing neighborhoods and neighborhood parks. - Council Round Table/Committee Reports Mr. Adamek: 1) Wished everyone a happy holiday, noting that he will be in town over the entire holiday period. 2) Noted that he wishes Ms. Hide Pittaluga good luck in all of her future endeavors, adding that it has been a real pleasure to serve with her on Council. Mr. Reiner thanked Ms. Hide Pittaluga for her service on Council which brought dignity to local government. She voted with her heart, and always considered the welfare of the children and the entire community. He knew that he could count on her support for all of the tough issues. He concluded by stating that it has been a pleasure serving with her on Council. Mrs. Boring: 1) Asked about the status of the code enforcement officer legislation. Mr. Smith responded that he has a draft memo which is being finalized. Because of new state legislation, it will be very difficult to have a local Code Enforcement Officer, who is not a Police Officer, perform the duties as discussed. Council will have a memo regarding this before the next Council Meeting. 2) Asked if Council action is needed on the memo regarding the model home. Mr. Hansley responded that Council was given this as an FYI in case they would have any concerns. 3) Wished Council member Ms. Hide Pittaluga good luck in the future. She hopes that she will stay in touch with Council members and continue to give her input. ..- Mr. Peterson: 1) Suggested that the issues raised recently regarding Post Road traffic be referred to the Community Services Advisory Committee. Previously, the Public Services Committee reviewed this matter. Mr. McCash responded that the discussion involved reducing the speed limit along Post Road, and staff did not recommend this. Mr. Peterson stated that he recalls that there were other alternatives which were to be explored, including boulevarding the road. Mr. Peterson indicated that he will discuss this item with the Public Services Chair after the first of the year. 2) Suggested that the matter of securing additional green space for commercial development be referred to the Natural Resources Advisory Commission.

'" ",..-- Mr. McCash noted that he had a previously scheduled meeting tonight, and was sorry to have missed the farewell reception for Ms. Hide Pittaluga. Mayor Kranstuber: 1) Proposed that Council consider offering compensation to members of the Planning and Zoning Commission. Ms. Hide Pittaluga stated that she would support this in view of the costs of childcare associated with volunteer service. Mayor Kranstuber suggested $50 per meeting, with a yearly cap of $1,500. This would prevent any perception of scheduling unnecessary meetings. Ms. Grigsby stated that she would strongly recommend a monthly pay instead of per meeting to eliminate the administrative task of keeping track of meeting attendance. ,......-, Mayor Kranstuber moved to direct staff to research the matter of compensation for Planning and Zoning Commission members, including surveying communities whose commissions have similar workload to Dublin's, and to draft legislation to provide such compensation to Dublin's Planning and Zoning Commission members. Mr. McCash seconded the motion. Vote on the motion - Mr. Reiner, yes; Mrs. Boring, yes; Mr. McCash, yes; Mr. Peterson, yes; Ms. Hide Pittaluga, yes; Mr. Adamek, yes; Mayor Kranstuber, yes. In response to Mrs. Boring, Mr. Smith said that it would be his recommendation that the Council member serving on Planning Commission not be paid additional compensation as they already are compensated for serving on Council. 2) Announced that the Emerald Parkway bridge ceremonial opening will be Friday, December 17 at 4:30 p.m. 3) Noted for clarification purposes that there will not be Christmas fireworks next year in Dublin. There was a letter to the editor printed in the Dublin News criticizing this event. Mr. Hansley added that the holiday fireworks were proposed by staff and approved by Council for a one-time event in 1999 because the Recreation Center was under construction. In the future, the Tree Lighting event can be held within the Recreation Center. Ms. Hide Pittaluga commented: 1) She reviewed the status of committee assignments and was pleased to see that the Public Services Committee has completed the tasks assigned to them during her tenure as Chair. She would encourage everyone to read Information Technology's current overview of projects underway in the City. She has distributed her report regarding a recent technology conference she attended on behalf of the City. She emphasized that technology is an important issue for the City, and that Dublin is fortunate to have Mr. Husenitza on the City staff. She has been overwhelmed by everyone's kind comments tonight. Looking back over her years of service to the City, it has been full of surprises and has been a tremendous experience.
