HOME RULE BOROUGH OF EDINBORO
COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
June 9, 2003
Call to Order:
The following Council members were present: Paul Snyder, Christopher A. Gillette, Jean Davis, Robert Gray, Mary Ann Horne, H. Robert Cannell and Mayor Caroline Rhodes. Also in attendance were E.R. McFadden, Borough Manager; Dave Zamierowski, Code Enforcement Officer; and Marie Lander, Assistant to the Manager. Guests present were Jen Duda, Jon Foulkrod, Bob Cogan, Ralph and Marion Zindel.
Mayor Rhodes introduced the minutes from the regular Council meeting held May 19, 2003. Mary Ann Horne moved for approval of the minutes and Jean Davis seconded. Paul Snyder wanted the record to show that the statement on Page 2 by Art Smaltz regarding him was not correct. This ordinance has been in place for many years. Mayor Rhodes requested that Watershed Association in the Recreation, Lake, Environment Committee report be changed to Lakeside Association. Mary Ann Horne requested that on page 3 the last paragraph showed that she asked about CDBG funds being used for purchase or lease of property when she meant use for improving sidewalks in front of the property. The minutes were approved with adjustments as noted, by a voice vote of 6-0-1 with Robert Gray abstaining.
Jon Foulkrod, Washington Township Council representative. Jon asked for a follow up on the bulk water agreement. He thought at the last meeting three weeks ago that the Solicitor was going to contact their solicitor. They have not heard from Solicitor Marsh. Manager McFadden stated that letter from the Township Solicitor was thoughtful and thought provoking to re respond to. They have finish reviewing it and Solicitor marsh at the earlier Authority Meeting has draft ready which he will call Paul Burrough’s the Solicitor of the Township to sit down and discuss the draft and points he brought to our attention. There is room to discuss and how to follow through. Attorney Marsh should be calling the Township Solicitor this week to set up a meeting. There is no real change in cost plus 10% for water or no change in existing premises there is change in exhibits on whom owns what and what lines will be transferred, etc.
Bob Cogan, 311 Waterford Street. At the polls many residents had concerns that he wanted to bring to the Council’s attention. First they felt Edinboro Police should direct traffic going east and west on 6N and Route 99 during rush hour and near the campus at graduation. Second was resident of 200 block of Waterford Street concern in paying for sidewalks. The third was a question on why they use the Home Rule Borough of Edinboro instead of Edinboro. H. Robert Cannell informed Mr. Cogan he also had the concern about the EUP event and police regarding traffic control. He had talked to the Manager and learned that the fourteen (14) EUP Police are responsible for traffic control regarding major events on campus. Mayor Caroline Rhodes noted that the new Neighborhood Forum will give the Borough more chances to discuss this and other problems with the university. The university presence in the Borough is a burden to residents including police force. She also congratulated Mr. Cogan for being on the ballot in the fall running for Council.
Being no further persons requesting time to speak the Mayor moved on to old business.
Committee Reports:
Finance Committee: Chairman Mary Ann Horne – Ms. Horne reported that she was unable to meet. Bob Cannell reported that he did meet and requested that monthly report show month and year to date comparison from prior year. Jean Davis wanted all to be aware that many variables affect each and every year. Mr. Cannell also asked Marie Lander, Assistant to the Manager to compile costs for legal expenses for 2001, 2002, and 2003 for comparison. Mary Ann Horne stated that they would try and meet later in the week to discuss format of reports.
Ordinance Review Committee: Chairman Jean Davis - Jean Davis reported they had met with the Manager and would be finishing up the administration section of recodification and sign ordinance shortly. Paul Snyder motioned and Jean Davis second to include a stop sign instead of a yield on Maple Drive where it meets Route 6N. The motion passed by 7-0 voice vote. Mr. Snyder requested a police report on this sign to be available when they discuss the ordinance.
Personnel Committee: Chairman H. Robert Cannell – The committee recommends appointment of Daryl Parker to the Planning & Zoning Commission with a term to end April 1, 2006. Bob Cannell motioned and Jean Davis seconded the motion which passed by 7-0 unanimous vote. Mayor Rhodes noted that there was still openings on the Zoning Hearing Board and the Environmental Shade Tree Committee.
Recreation, Lake, Environment Committee: Chairman Mary Ann
Public Safety Committee: Chairman Paul Snyder –nothing to report.
Streets, Buildings, & Grounds Committee: Chairman Chris Gillette - no report. H. Robert Cannell asked about outage reported to police who check the number on the pole and notify Penelec. After five weeks the light is still not corrected. Mayor Rhodes instructed the Manager to have another call be placed into Penelec and to also check on the street lights for the Brae Loch.
Committee of the Whole – Mayor Rhodes reported that they met June 2nd and 18 citizens came regarding screening of dumpsters. Four Council members felt the design, cost, and inconvenience to owners were reason to suspend the requirement. The remaining three Council members felt that many had already complied and the rest should also comply to the four sided screening provisions. Discussion continued with Council, Manager McFadden, and Dave Zamierowski. H. Robert Cannell asked what Council felt of the new dumpster just placed by BP at the corner of 6N and 99 intersection. He felt it looked terrible and wanted to know if that is what they wanted. They should take pictures of this and send it to the 18 that came to the meeting. The ordinance has been in effect for 14 years and still Council is not taking a stand. Christopher Gillette thought more about last Monday nights meeting. We worked the positives and the negatives and voted to follow the ordinance then 18 people complain and we change. It is very frustrating and the letter that the manager sent out was not clear what was they were doing. Mayor Caroline Rhodes said Council should respond to citizens concerns and it was too ridged to be on all four side screening. She felt this was wrong and we need a motion. Paul Snyder stated that we were unanimously for the ordinance after a years study but when 19 citizen’s complaints out of over 100 businesses some don’t want to upheld the 16 year ordinance. McDonald’s has enclosed theirs and has dealt with snow for years maybe they need to let others know how to do it. It is extremely frustrating when it passed unanimously and all points where brought up before. Christopher Gillette stated that at one point they had something about not enclosing if you couldn’t see it form the road. Mayor Rhodes stated that Buck’s memo had where he had seen this point. Jean Davis agreed it was frustrating and everything was frustrating from budget, starting from scratch, sewer plant, water, always something and some solution needed to be worked on until changed. Jean thought they were trying to enforce too fast and with the bad spring they needed to extend the time so businesses could get together and discuss ways to cooperate together and how to get dumpsters out of sight. Council all agrees that we don’t see it they don’t need to enclose so we should extend time and put in ordinance line of sight screen which would cut down expense for some. The question of opening and closing gates doesn’t make sense since we as residence take our rubbish to the road weekly. Jean suggested a motion to extend the time and give Council time to play with the line of sight option. Paul Snyder stated the letter already sent out stated suspended while Council makes decision. This letter should not of gone out until voted upon. Manager McFadden stated that Council will make decision tonight. The potential order that people may incur expenses and then Council would tell them they don’t have to do it. This is an order at expense and if in short time Council tells them they don’t have to do it, it is a potential problem, so it is my responsibility to direct staff to send letters informing owners that requirement is temporarily suspended while Council considers comments of meeting. Three things one you can go ahead tonight and discuss and agree to continue as planned; or stop installation except for those in sight; or suspend if not sure what doing at this time. The letter is to stop potential problem until consensus. We have a proactive administration and the building code is being followed regarding rubbish disposal. Many dumpsters and vicinity of them look a lot better today then prior because of this letter informing them of our use of these rules. The letter first communicated consensus how administer BOCA reactive to proactive. The second part of the letter made them aware that until a decision is made tonight they could wait and see what needed to be done.
Jean Davis motioned to suspend screening indefinitely and Robert Gray seconded. Discussion followed. Bob Cannell asked if it was financial reasons for suspending it. Jean Davis stated that the 14 year ordinance been there but enforced very little and 60 days was not enough time to raise fund for this. Mary Ann Horne suggested people Mill Street would loose parking where not many already have. Need to get together and think it out for joint compliance. Mayor Rhodes asked about waste haulers and additional fees if screened if takes more than 4 minutes. Have we called to see what cost again? Access of trucks in narrow lots also a problem which she would like to rethink this ordinance. Christopher Gillette asked if a specific date could be put into Jean Davis’s motion.
Jean Davis and Robert Gray who seconded agreed to modify the resolution to read: Dumpster owners must be in compliance by October 31, 2003 with the existing requirements of the rubbish ordinance. More discussion followed. Dave Zamierowski stated he had viewed 20 – 25 dumpsters today and found three (3) in violation of Section 306 of the BOCA Code for not being neat or having a tight lid. The procedure is that they first get a violation letter; second they get a date to comply if not corrected; and third they get a summary offence at the District Justice. H. Robert Cannell asked to move the motion. Motion passed by 7-0 voice vote.
Jean Davis motioned and Robert Gray seconded to send ordinance to ordinance review committee to consider change requirement for screen to be only those in line of sight form the right of way. Motion passed 4-3.

Mr. Cannell asked about the solicitor bill if it was for the first quarter. Manager McFadden stated it was not linear. This bill as well as the Engineer bill is broken down between the Water, Wastewater, and General funds. Mr. Cannell also asked about the Engineer bill for flood. Manager McFadden explained with was for the Elm Street study which we discussed last year with Washington Township where storm sewer water comes down Angling Road down stream. The engineer has designed work for our crew to correct problems lower portion and sent copies to the Township engineer. We have not received the study for the upper portion form Washington Township’s Engineer as of yet. We had agreed to work with Washington Township on the upper portion to divert the water from coming down to us. The water originates in the Township and the thought was to divert it into the back parking and fields of the elementary school. With no objections it passed by 7-0 voice vote.

Community Liaisons:
EVFD Board Liaison – Bob Cannell reported they met for three hours on interal conditions.
PLCM Campus Community – H. Robert Cannell reviewed resolutions to be voted on at the PLCM Conference. There are eleven resolutions and he wanted to discuss two he had a problem with. One was Resolution 4 to reinstatement of alcohol management program PLCB. He wanted to know why it was dropped form state budget, what results they got, how costly. Mayor Rhodes stated it was to train bar tenders. Mary Ann Horne stated she was on the committee at the university. The bars got a reduced insurance rate if their bar tenders were trained. It was good program but she felt they could share the expense with bar owners. She also noted that there was not a lot of attendees since the class was not mandatory. Resolution 11 regarding non uniformed employees may not be feasible to municipalities was the second resolution Mr. Cannell had questions on. Manager McFadden stated it was for 3rd class cities only and would only indirectly affect us since unions look at other agreements in place. Mayor Rhodes asked Mr. Cannell to use his judgment on these two resolutions in voting.
Washington Township Liaison – Jean Davis stated she was unable to attend but Bob Cannell did in her place. H. Robert Cannell reported that he needed a flake jacket to take her place since they wanted to discuss the bulk water agreement.

They reviewed the tap in fees for Ames site and Day Care Center. I & I for the Shelhamer area will be in August since they are raising manholes. It was noted that Rep.
