meeting in November.

Richard Forcucci asked Manager McFadden what action had been done on 911 calls?  Manager McFadden stated, Chief Craft, West County, and I had tested the system earlier in the fall, since EUP agreement will be expiring in 1½ years.  Also after the incident with the Lawrence County Sheriff prisoner escape Chief Craft and an officer went to EUP to review the 911 tapes with EUP Chief and Assistant Chief to be fully informed of what had transpired.  Manager McFadden stated that he will have a meeting with EUP personnel later this week to review how they handle 911 calls and how important proper dispatch is to the safety of our residents.

contract and result should be known in the morning.

            Public Safety:           

                        Manager McFadden stated that Police Reports were in the Council packets for their review and a letter from DCED stating that the canine unit proposal was under review.

BOCA/Code Enforcement

                        Monthly report was submitted for Council review.  Manager McFadden informed Council that a fruitful meeting with developers Denny Porto, Dale McBrier, John Patterson, Dave Zamierowski, and himself last week came up with some ideas for through streets to keep traffic speeds down.  The developers will be getting back to the Borough on this subject.  Manager McFadden stated that Code Enforcement Officer Zamierowski has sent correspondence on the Borough’s behalf on the Senate Bill 647 Uniform Construction Code.

It was noted that a letter from County of Erie Department of Planning was received in regards to the Culbertson Hills Development.  Deputy Mayor Rhodes informed Council that they should be thoughtful when reviewing the plans because the project span’s both the Township and the Borough with different zoning and building codes.

Public Works:

                        Charles Brand informed Manager McFadden that the trash truck and not the recycling truck picked up his newspapers.  Later the recycling truck picked up the other recyclables.  Manager McFadden stated he would call and check on the pick up of newspapers.

            Building & Property

                        Lease Agreement with Northwest Tri County Intermediate Unit #5 was postponed until rates could be checked with previous correspondence.

            Streets

                        A letter from Tom Schruers, Public Works Director requesting experimentation with salt brine solution was presented to Council.  After much discussion, Jean Davis motioned to allow Public Works Director Tom Schruers to use salt brine solution on an experimental basis not to exceed the cost of $1,500.  The motion was seconded by Charles Brand and was approved by a 5-1 voice vote.

            Park & Recreations

                        A letter of September 28, 1999 from the Fish & Boat Commission outlined the process to designate an exclusive use area.  Richard Forcucci motioned to

 

HOME RULE BOROUGH OF EDINBORO COUNCIL MEETING

 

Page 4                                                                                                  October 25, 1999

 

designate from Chestnut Street Bridge to Normal Street Bridge as exclusive use area.  Charles Brand seconded the motion and it unanimously passed by a 6-0 voice vote.  Manager McFadden was instructed to send in writing the Council’s approval of the designated area to the Fish & Boat Commission.

                        Manager McFadden informed Council and the Solicitor that a letter was sent to Metal Craft Docks, Inc. confirming the total price, $9,423.45, of a dock to be constructed in regards to a pending legal matter.

Shade Tree

            Minutes of October 13, 1999 Shade Tree Committee was presented to Council.  Mary Ann Horne motioned to write GPU about Hazlett Tree Service poor trimming job on trees in the Borough around utility wires.  Richard Forcucci seconded the motion and it unanimously passed by voice vote 6-0.  Mary Ann Horne also informed Council they were in the process of counting trees in public spaces in preparation to apply for a grant.  Discussion followed in regards to trees and their placement.

            Dam

                        Annual inspection report of 1999 was presented to Council.

Wastewater Collection &Treatment:

Manager McFadden presented Council with a letter from Edinboro University in regards to their Sewage Facilities Planning Module showing modifications.  Mary Ann Horne motioned to authorize appropriate representatives of the Borough to execute and complete the Sewage Facilities Planning Module.  Charles Brand seconded the motion and it passed unanimously by voice vote of 6-0.

Manager McFadden stated the KOZ plan of Franklin Township was for Council review.  Since this contains much information it was hoped that collectively the Authority Board Members and Council could help with distinguishing between specific people and places stated within.

            Water System:

            Manager McFadden stated that he was in the process of getting a response on our position in the Hitchcock/Chin agreement to Washington Township.  Over the past month we have researched water and sewer costs of other municipalities preparing for a new cost structure.  Washington Township charges $150 a year if you have a meter and $75 a year if no meter.  While we are encouraging usage of meters, our thought is to have a cost structure where if you have a meter it is $75 a year and no meter would be $150 a year.  The base rate EDU would go to 400 gallons per day, which would increase the estimated

minimum.  Council was encouraged to give their thoughts on the cost structure to the Manager.  Manager McFadden would get back to Council this week on this matter.

Communications:

            A letter from The Erie Historical Museum & Planetarium was received dated October 8, 1999 requesting ornaments for the First Annual Senior Citizens Holiday Ornament contest.

            A letter dated October 6, 1999 from DCED to Citizens of Edinboro Community was in reply to the gravel permit approval.

            Caroline Rhodes presented to Manager McFadden a letter from Mark and Cathy Hutchinson in objection to the change of the traditional Trick or Treat on October 31st.

New Business:

            Mary Ann Horne informed Council that the Edinboro Chamber was interested in the downtown lighting on the first Thursday of December at 6 p.m. They would like to have cars off the road so the luminaries can be seen on the lawns.  Manager McFadden stated he would look into this.  Mary Ann Horne stated that the 8th grade band would be playing after the lumination and the businesses were being encouraged to stay open with an old fashion sales and snacks for all.
