Regarding concerns about streets heaving, the engineer explained that it does not indicate poor 28 quality construction. Council urged diligence as the Board of Control considers paving company 29 qualifications due to past issues working with some companies.

COUNCIL MINUTES_FEBRUARY 17, 2025 | Page 2 Meeting adjourned at 7:02 PM 51 This concludes my report. 52 53 COUNCILWOMAN GREENFIELD reported that the Finance Committee met on Monday, February 10th, 54 2025 at 7:02pm. 55 City Council Members Present: Simmerly, Greenfield, Kilbane, Wering, and Mann along with the Mayor 56 and his staff. 57 Ordinance 25-06 Agreement with Rocky River for resurfacing of Higley Road. 58 Engineer Kerber stated: She noticed there was a version in the first reading that was missing some dollar 59 values and the city of Rocky River wanted to add a couple clarification clauses. These changes were in the 60 packet for the second read. 61 Article 3 adds in the estimated project and engineering cost for Rocky River’s portion of the project. 62 Article 6 adds section B and C - Which is clarification of how the costs for each city are going to be 63 determined and allocated. We will have separate bid Pages for the Fairview work versus Rocky River work 64 and Then the work will be allocated separately in the pay request that the contractor submits. 65 Ordinance 25-06 was placed on 3rd reading and final passage and the Motion Passed 5-0 66 Ordinance 25-07 Authorizing the contract with the city engineer for design of West 210 Street resurfacing. 67 Councilwoman Wering asked City Engineer Kerber to describe the timeline for the West 210 Resurfacing 68 Project. Ms. Kerber stated that Bidding for the project will happen in Fall of 2025 and the project will be 69 awarded at the beginning of 2026. She expected the construction to begin in April and end in September 70 with the resurfacing on W. 210th St. 71 Council Woman Wering also inquired about the Traffic patterns during the construction and RTA Bus 72 Routes. Engineer Kerber stated that traffic will be maintained during the construction. However, there may 73 be times when doing full depth repairs, and traffic patterns would have to be altered. Ms. Kerber also stated, 74 the city of Fairview Park will work with RTA during the design of the construction and hopefully be able 75 to maintain the bus route on West 210th St. 76 Ordinance 25-07 was already on 2nd and subsequent 3rd reading therefore, no vote was necessary. 77 Ordinance 25-08 Accepting Grant Funds Through 2025 NOPEC Energized Community Grant. 78 Councilwoman Wering asked What is the intention for the money from the NOPEC grant? Henry Chaski 79 clarified that he believes the NOPEC funds are being used to recoup money spent on the HVAC Systems 80 last year because the award grant is intended to be used for energy efficiency. 81 Ordinance 25-08 was placed on 2nd and subsequent 3rd reading and the motion passed 5-0 82 Ordinance 25-09 Authorizing Replacement, Update, and Repair of Cues Camera Truck. 83 Director Bryan Hitch stated that the truck was purchased from North Olmsted for $12,000 and it needs a 84 trans camera, which is the main camera that is sent down into the sewer. The city of Fairview Park had the 85 truck inspected at M-Tech (Sewer Camera Systems Company in NEO). They stated that to get the main 86 camera up to 100% it would cost $66,500. That would put the total cost below $90,000. Director Hitch 87 stated that a new truck would be $380,000. And He Concluded, by purchasing this truck and getting the 88 repairs to the camera system, the City of Fairview Park service department can start televising more sewers 89 in house Instead of farming it out to Cuyahoga County at $390 per hour or outside contractors that charge 90 by the foot. 91 Director Hitch stated that by using this truck, The City of Fairview Park could probably recoup its money 92 in about a year. This doesn’t mean the city won’t need to utilize the county services or outside contractors. 93 However, when the service department is jetting the sewer lines, we’ll have a camera truck to see what’s 94 going on in the sewers and get immediate results. 95 Director Hitch also stated the need to train the staff to use the camera system. Hitch stated this investment 96 in this truck will save the city time, we’ll get the money back and have trained employees when it’s said 97 and done. 98 Council President asked what year is the truck? Director Hitch stated the truck was a gift at $12,000 and it 99 had $30,000 worth of equipment still on the truck but he couldn’t remember the year of the truck. 100
COUNCIL MINUTES_FEBRUARY 17, 2025 | Page 3 Councilwoman Wering calculated the math on the purchase price of the camera truck and compared it to 101 the cost of Cuyahoga County doing the work. She stated that would equal 27 days of work based on an 102 eight-hour day. Do we have the staff to utilize the Truck 27 days in the next year? Will we be over extending 103 our Service Dept staff? Director Hitched stated we do have some staff to utilize the truck but even if it takes 104 2 years to recoup the cost it will be worth it to make the purchase. We can also train up the service 105 department staff. We’ll be hiring new workers, if the budget will support it, and we’ve increased hiring for 106 part time workers. 107 Councilwoman Wering asked if having this camera truck will free up some funds we get from the county to 108 help the City of Fairview Park with more or bigger projects? Director Hitched stated yes, we would have 109 more money for repairs because we’ve done the camera work ourselves. 110 Councilwoman Mann thanked Director Hitch for his 3-year plan for mapping the Fairview Park Sewer 111 Conditions. And restated that the camera truck can help with straight line or small sewer jobs. How much 112 or what percentage of the sewer work done in FP can be handled by this truck that we’ve outsourced in the 113 past? Unfortunately, I can’t give you the historical data on that. Therefore, it’s inconclusive. We only have 114 camera data from the County and the jetting of the sewers over the last year.

20777 Lorain Road A. Steven Dever Fairview Park, Ohio 44126 Law Director MEMORANDUM _________________________________________________________________________________________________ 440-333-2200 (CITY HALL) WWW.FAIRVIEWPARK.ORG 1 TO: Council President Kilbane and Members of City Council FROM: A. Steven Dever, Law Director RE: Legislation-Amend Chapter 706 “Hotel and Motel Tax” DATE: April 7, 2025 The Administration of the City of Fairview Park requests passage of the following Ordinance after three readings with emergency enactment: AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SECTION 706.01, SECTION 706.02 (a), SECTION 706.02 (b), AND SECTION 706.13 OF CHAPTER 706, ENTITLED "HOTEL AND MOTEL TAX" OF THE CODIFIED ORDINANCES OF THE CITY OF FAIRVIEW PARK AND DECLARING AN EMERGENCY In 2020, Ohio law was amended to allow municipalities to expand the application of local lodging excise taxes to include short-term rental properties such as those listed on platforms like Airbnb. The City of Fairview Park currently levies a 3% excise tax on hotels, motels, and motor inns that offer five or more rooms for lodging accommodations. However, this definition excludes a growing number of short-term rental properties offering fewer than five rooms. The Administration recommends amending Section 706.01 to include a definition of “short-term rental” as any establishment offering at least one but fewer than five rooms for accommodations rented for less than thirty days. In doing so, the City can bring these properties into the same tax framework applied to traditional lodging businesses. The proposed amendments will also amend Section 706.02(a) and (b) to apply the existing 3% excise tax to both hotels and short-term rentals, and update Section 706.13 to reflect the expanded scope of taxable lodging transactions. The revenue collected from this tax will continue to be used exclusively by the Fairview Park Police Department. These changes will ensure that all transient lodging providers contribute equitably to the City and bring Fairview Park’s ordinance into alignment with Ohio Revised Code Section 5739.091, which authorizes municipalities to expand the definition of "hotel" for tax purposes to include establishments with fewer than five rooms. The Administration respectfully requests passage of this ordinance to expand the applicability of the existing excise tax and provide additional revenue to support the Police Department.

20777 Lorain Road Bill Schneider Fairview Park, Ohio 44126 Mayor 440-333-2200 (City Hall) www.fairviewpark.org MEMORANDUM TO: Council President Kilbane and Members of City Council FROM: Kerry Kemp, Recreation Director RE: Ordinance – Sale of pool pumps DATE: March 17, 2025 The Administration of the City of Fairview Park (“City”) requests passage of the following Ordinance after three readings with emergency enactment: AN ORDINANCE AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR TO ENTER INTO AN AGREEMENT WITH THE CITY OF WESTLAKE FOR THE SALE OF OBSOLETE POOL EQUIPMENT AND DECLARING AN EMERGENCY In 2021, the Recreation Department purchased nine (9) Marlow pool pumps (“Pumps”) in the amount of $66,792.00 (Ordinance 21-23). At the time, they were the only Pumps that could be used to replace the current pumps without complete redesign of the aquatic pool pump system. These Pumps were also soon to be discontinued and the purchase of them needed to be done in a timely manner as the current pumps we had were in disrepair and new pumps would be needed to open the pools. After further investigations, it was determined that the pool would need to be reconstructed, which led to the passage of Issue 55 in November 2023, Requests for Qualifications and Requests for Proposals for designs, owner’s representation, Construction Manager at Risk and ultimately the full redesign of the Gemini Aquatic Center. As part of the redesign and reconstruction, the original Pumps purchased in 2021 would be obsolete for the new aquatic center and pool pump system. The Gemini Center Splash Park uses pool pumps. Two (2) of the Pumps will be retained by the Recreation Department to be used at the Splash Park. An effort made through Berrington Pumps, our original vendor, to return or sell the pumps was unsuccessful.
20777 Lorain Road Bill Schneider Fairview Park, Ohio 44126 Mayor 440-333-2200 (City Hall) www.fairviewpark.org The seven (7) remaining Pumps are unused and no longer useable for this project as the reconstruction design calls for all new pumps. Due to this, the options that the City of Fairview Park has are to scrap the current equipment during the demolition phase or sell these assets. The City of Westlake Recreation Department uses these same pumps in their aquatic facilities and the City of Fairview Park’s unused pumps work as both a back-up pump and as spare parts for the City of Westlake. The City of Westlake has agreed to pay one thousand dollars ($1,000.00) for each Pump for a total payment of seven thousand dollars ($7,000.00) to be deposited in the Recreation Fund (Fund 230). There are no warranties and the Pumps are sold as is. By entering into a purchase agreement with the City of Westlake to buy seven (7) Pumps, we are able to recoup some money from the original purchase, but more importantly, gain some good will with a great community partner that assisted our City, Recreation Department, our members and residents by opening up their pool to us for a year and a half while we were closed. Thank you for considering this legislation. Cc: Mayor Bill Schneider Jennifer Pae, Finance Director/HR Manager A. Steven Dever, Law Director

| EW! | RE WARNER PROJECT OVERVIEW We understand your purpose and objectives to be to evaluate the existing City Hall building in its current condition and develop a space program for the Administration, Police and Fire Departments. This proposal also reflects the programming efforts associated with the departments currently housed in the City Hall complex. The purpose of this project, as we currently understand it, is to provide the City with a high-level existing conditions evaluation and programming of the current facilities. SCOPE OF WORK R.E. Warner intends to provide analysis of the existing building conditions assessment, as well as provide programming and design for the existing City Hall Building. With that goal in mind, a programming document delineating the space planning requirements for the City Hall administration, Fire and Police departments housed at this site will be created and used for the preliminary space planning and design. We understand the scope of the work to include: 1. Conditions Assessment Analysis a. Analysis of the City provided building assessments to review the current findings of the existing building. We will use the existing assessments as a base and fill in any voids or updates during our investigation. 2. Programming a. Collect programmatic information from all stakeholders. It will include the components that are currently needed in the new building. One option for the renovated City Hall will be developed. b. Attend one meeting to go over the preliminary programming and one meeting to review the final document with the city. 3. Design a. One space planning option for City Hall will be developed inclusive of the programming information to redefine the space. This will include relocation of HVAC equipment to the lower floor. b. One site plan option for areas of concern, traffic flow and parking. c. A high level design narrative will be prepared to reflect the MEP changes necessary to accommodate the proposed design options. We have broken the project down into major tasks. These tasks will become the cornerstone for planning, scheduling, monitoring and controlling the project. Presented below is our task plan: 1. Prepare a customized questionnaire for use during interviews with each of the departments housed at the City Hall Complex. 2. Attend an initial introduction meeting and walk-through at the existing facility site.
