C. Mr. Horace Simmons re: Letter dated April 3, 1985
I would like to ask the Assembly not to take action to increase the hard
disk capacity of the System 38 at this time because I don't believe it has
been carefully considered. I would ask that you take action to appoint an
advisory board from members of the community similar to the Architectural
Review Board. People that could be knowledgeable about computers. The
most important reason for computerizing is probably to enhance produc-
tivity. Another reason for installing a computer is to reduce operating
costs.
Mr. Naughton moved to acknowledge receipt of the letter. Seconded by Mr.
White. Motion carried by unanimous voice vote.
VII PUBLIC HEARINGS (Village Telephone Number 486-5370)
A. Ord. No. 85-6-0 Amending The Personnel Rules And Regulations By Com-
bining Annual And Sick Leave.
Mr. Naughton moved to adopt Ordinance No. 85-6-0. Seconded by Mrs. Cater.
Regular Session closed:
Public Hearing opened:
Linda Freed: I would like to speak in favor of the ordinance. I believe
if employees are willing to take a cut in the number of days alloted to
them as leave days that they should be allowed the choice of how to use
those leave days.
Okey Chandler: I am against the ordinance.
Scott Arndt: I basically wish to speak against the ordinance. I understand
the issues on both sides. Sick leave was put on the books years ago to
help people with illnesses that come along unexpected. I don't agree with
adding it to annual leave.
Wayne Haerer: I just want to ask your just consideration. I feel it is
justifiable to the employees and your due consideration is appreciated
along with the other considerations in the other negotiations that we have
previously discussed.
Jim Gingerich:(K.I. Hospital) I am going to speak with concern about this.
My concern is by establishing a norm like this in an entity such as the
Borough, other people watch on and one of the things I have already had to
spend considerable time with is "if this is good for this group of em-
ployees why is it not maybe good for hospital employees".
Bud Cassidy: I am here to speak in favor of the program as an inducement,
hopefully, to try to encourage the longevity of employees with the Borough.
Hopefully with this type of program, we will be able to entice the types of
expertise that the Borough needs.
Karl Short: I would like to speak in favor of this ordinance.
Lorna Arndt: (Personnel Board) We have done years of study on this. Other
Boroughs have this plan, and since our employees were willing to take a cut
of three days a year, I think it would be good if you would adopt this one.
Public Hearing closed:

Regular Session closed:
Public Hearing opened:

benefit so basically I am opposed.

XI MAYOR'S COMMENTS
1) Read a Proclamation proclaiming April 14-20, 1985 National Library Week.
2) Read the Certificate of Commendation to Barbara Carberry.
KIB MG.�— April 4� 1985 ;) a -•r �, Page 6
3) Re: City's Resolution on naming auditorium for Mr. Al Owen, I feel that
the Fish Tech Center being named for him would epitomize his life as a
legislator and a stalworth in the development of fisheries.
XII ASSEMBLY COMMENTS
Ms. Barker: A survey of the current hospital is being conducted and a long
range plan just being completed with the object being either to decide to
renovate our older hospital or to build a new one. The next phase in this
is to request the legislature for 1.8 million dollars in architectural and
engineering money. I would like to ask for community support in asking for
this money from the legislature.
Mr. Blankenburg: None.
Mrs. Cater: I appreciate the bill in the legislature dealing with the
passing of school buses. I also appreciate the police department making us
more aware of the school zones.
Mr. Wakefield: None.
Mr. Naughton: Did the School District get their copies of the budget to us
today?
Mr. Rounsaville: None.
Mr. White: None.
XIII AUDIENCE COMMENTS
Scott Arndt: I have a concern re: the System 38 also. Mr. Simmons made a
suggestion regarding establishing an independent advisory board and I would
like to see this implemented.
Lorna Arndt: I would like to know when the hearing will be held on the
School District budget where the public can speak?
I would like to see a motion made for the purchase of a fan that can cool
the area where the Assembly sits and that way it won't be so cold out where
the audience sits.
Another question I have is whether the Borough is going to take over the
garbage collection from the City?
Also, how much rent does the Borough collect from the Special Land Use
Permits?
You won't be receiving minutes from the Personnel Board until August since
there was no business for the April meeting it was cancelled.
Mr. Naughton moved that Staff be directed to purchase a suitable fan to cool
the area where the Assembly sits. Seconded by Mrs. Cater. Motion carried by
unanimous voice vote.
XIV ADJOURNMENT
Mr. Naughton moved to adjourn. Seconded by Mr. Blankenburg.
Mayor Peterson adjourned the meeting at 9:08 pm.
