5. Finance Committee Verbal Report regarding Purchasing & Contracting Ordinance No. 114-05.

Councilmember FitzGerald submitted the following report.

Item 114-05, proposed Ordinance 114-05 is the contracting authority for 2006, it is also complimenting the proposed 2006 Budget. It has for the basic budget items that go from January 1st, starting 2006 through the end of the year. It does not include some items that would be considered fresh in the Budget process itself. We’ve been through this a number of times so I would just remind Council that this is contracting authority only this not authorizing the actual expenditures which will happen in succeeding ordinances and also in the Budget process for the final nine month period of time. The Finance Committee met and unanimously suggested that this be passed this evening.

Motion by Mr. FitzGerald, seconded by Mr. Dever, to receive and file the verbal report.
Motion adopted. All members voting yea.
….

6. ORDINANCE NO. 114-05 – AN ORDINANCE authorizing the Mayor (Director of Public Safety), the Director of Public Works, the Director of Law, the Director of Finance, and/or the Purchasing Manager to enter into contracts for professional services, and to advertise for bids and enter into contracts for the purchase of repair maintenance and operating supplies, services and equipment as authorized by the 2005 Appropriation Ordinance and the Administrative Code of the City of Lakewood with the lowest and best bidder or bidders or as otherwise provided by law. (PLACED ON 1ST READING & REFERRED TO THE FINANCE COMMITTEE 11/21/05, 2ND READING 12/5/05)(Pg. 14)

Motion by Mr. FitzGerald, seconded by Mr. Dever, to adopt Ordinance No. 114-05.
Motion adopted. All members voting yea.
….
7. Finance Committee Verbal Report regarding Temporary Appropriations Ordinance No. 115-05.

Councilmember FitzGerald submitted the following report:

As you know by March 31st of 2006 we have to pass a Budget for the rest of 2006 but on our Budget cycle that means the first three months of the year are not funded so this ordinance funds our first three month period of time. It is basically a bare bones to get through for that three month period of time and then the rest of the decisions could be made in the Budget process. Again the Committee met on this item and unanimously suggested that it be passed this evening.

Motion by Mr. FitzGerald, seconded by Mr. Dever, to receive and file the verbal report.

Mr. FitzGerald added:

There was one pertinent fact that I neglected to mention. It also includes the capital appropriations. We had an extended conversation about this because I wanted to make sure that City Council wasn’t going to be waving its right to make decisions regarding the ultimate expenditures of for all the capital projects without going through our usual due diligence of our Budget process and what was represented to the Committee which we accepted was that there will be an appropriation at this time, there will not be contracting authority for those items. So by doing that, we’ll still retain our ability to have the oversight of whether or not we actually, ultimately want to approve the expenditure of funds on those projects and at the same time it will appropriate those funds so that in anticipation of that the Administration can try to make use of having advanced notice and be able to perhaps start some of those capital projects in a more timely basis so that we can move quicker on them; so we’re not trying to pour concrete in December which we’re trying to do on some of those streets that we mentioned, so for those reasons, also the Committee recommended its adoption this evening.

Mayor George indicated City Engineer Albrecht brought the idea forward expecting cost savings and that bids later in the spring would enter an already full construction season in that some companies were not always eager to take on new construction projects. He indicated that Engineer Albrecht suggested that better prices could be found earlier on in the process and could show a ten percent savings.

Motion adopted. All members voting yea.
….

8. ORDINANCE NO. 115-05 – AN ORDINANCE to establish temporary appropriations for current expenses and other expenditures of the City of Lakewood, State of Ohio, for three months, January 1, 2006 to March 31, 2006 as provided by Ohio Revised Code Section 5705.38. (PLACED ON 1ST READING & REFERRED TO THE FINANCE COMMITTEE 11/21/05, 2ND READING 12/5/05)(Pg. 16)

Motion by Mr. FitzGerald, seconded by Mr. Dever, to adopt Ordinance No. 115-04.

Motion adopted. All members voting yea.
….

9. Finance Committee Verbal Report regarding Additional Appropriations Ordinance No. 116-05.

Councilmember FitzGerald submitted the following report:

I would basically describe this as a house-keeping item. For all the various funds that there were estimates and appropriations and expenditures made, they have to be reconciled at the end of the year so that all the ultimate appropriations have to be supported by actual revenues that come in an actual expenditures that are made. If a fund under spends and has funds still remaining in it, it has to be balanced out. If a fund over spend because there was an item that wasn’t estimated high enough then there has to be a reconciliation there also. That’s basically what 116-05 does. There is a substitute by the way for that which you should all have in front of you. The Finance Committee unanimously recommended that the substitute be adopted this evening.

Motion by Mr. FitzGerald, seconded by Mr. Dever, to receive and file the verbal report.
Motion adopted. All members voting yea.

11. Finance Committee Verbal Report regarding Additional Fund Transfers - Ordinance No. 7-05B.

Mr. FitzGerald submitted the following report:

Ordinance No. 7-05B is basically a transfer, it’s actually a corollary to what we just passed. It is the corresponding transfers which are based on the final appropriations that were made. And again I don’t’ want it’s duplicative because it’s a different function but it’s basically a corollary to what we just passed. Again the Finance Committee recommended and there is also in this case a substitution so in this case the Finance Committee again suggested that we pass the substituted ordinance which you’ve been provided and pass it unanimously this evening.

13. Finance Committee Verbal Report regarding Amendments to Contracting Ordinance – Ordinance No. 99-04F.

Councilmember FitzGerald submitted the following report:

We also met on this item. These are the amendments to our contracting ordinance. We had a long discussion in Committee about the way the process works and of course there has to be a corresponding contracting authority to every expenditure. These are the additions and subtractions so to speak for the various contracting actions which have taken place. The bottom line is the amendments end up being a net decrease of $30,000. We can go through the different items but they vary. Some have gone up, some have gone down, it all depends again on how much was actually expended. It is somewhat of a formality that we go through but an additional layer of oversight. With that being said, the Finance Committee unanimously suggested that we pass Ordinance 99-04F this evening with the substitute that’s been provided.

Motion by Mr. FitzGerald, seconded by Mr. Dever, to receive and file the verbal report.
Motion adopted. All members voting yea.

15. Finance Committee Verbal Report regarding Salary Band Ordinance Revisions – Ordinance No. 89-05C.

Councilmember FitzGerald submitted the following report:

This had to do with really technical additions and deletions of individuals and bargaining units due to their status. One was basically a misprint where Mr. Novelli from the Finance Department was taken out of the Union and another individual was placed in. The other ones have to do with people who were previously designated as members of the Bargaining Unit because they were full-time but because you have to be full-time to be in the Bargaining Unit not part-time because they went part-time, they’re no longer in the Bargaining Unit. That’s basically it, it’s a pretty technical addition to this salary band. It’s just a clarification as to whose in the Bargaining Unit and who isn’t so the Committee unanimously recommended adoption of this item this evening and this is another one where we only had one reading but because of the timely nature of it we felt that a suspension of the rules was in order this evening.

Motion by Mr. FitzGerald, seconded by Mr. Butler to receive and file the verbal report.
Motion adopted. All members voting yea.
….

16. ORDINANCE NO. 89-05C – AN EMERGENCY ORDINANCE creating positions and rates of pay for full-time and certain part-time annual salaried employees and hourly rate employees not covered by a collective bargaining agreement in the several departments, divisions and offices of the City of Lakewood, including the Chief of Fire, Chief of Police and Civil Service Commissioners, effective January 1, 2005.

17.

(PLACED ON 1ST READING AND REFERRED TO THE COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE 12/5/05)(Pg. 23)

A resident asked why an increase when the City of Cleveland has not increased the water rate to pass through to Lakewood.

Council President Seelie indicated that one reason would be that next year the County is going to help Lakewood repave all of Clifton Boulevard. He said the pipe under there is about 100 years old. He said that project was about a four million dollar project and if the City did not have enough money to do that we would not have money to do all the other maintenance, repairs to the water pipes. He said otherwise we would have the street repaved and five to ten years, have to dig up the street again to replace the pipe. He indicated it would be a total waste of money.

Motion by Mr. Seelie, seconded by Mr. FitzGerald, to adopt Ordinance No. 117-05.
Motion adopted. Ordinance No. 117-05 adopted.
