Committee Reports:

at the high school. It was a practice and everything went well. The new police officers
are in FTO (field training).
City Council—Meeting is being recorded,the tapes will be given
to Jackie (clerk) and kept for 2 years. The city is checking with a sign company about the
possibility of a"Character Counts Community" sign to be put up in the city.
Recreation Board—none. Laura Brown is the new dept head.
Library Board—none. The architecture's fees are covered by the
city. The library board is moving ahead for the new addition east of the existing building.
School District—Homecoming week, very hectic as usual with lots
of activities. Code RED practice. Good communication between the schools, the legion,
and the city regarding the 9-11 events. Character counts week fell within this time and
everything was tastefully done to acknowledge the"A Day to Remember".
Old Business: Visitors' Center—W.Ohare presented a list of numerous names
and asked for help to determine who (business or service) fits our idea for the Center. A
mailing list was obtained from the Chamber of Commerce but most of the names were
not applicable to our wants. More work will be done putting together the list before the
letter can be sent out.
Street Names—Many nominations have been received, the list will
take time to evaluate and qualify each recommendation. A list of names was presented of
accepted names to start with. The motion to accept the starter list was made by D.Lenta-
Leidy and seconded by W. Ohare. S. Kurtz and R. Spears will develop a routing chart for
name list form. It has to be review by Ken-Com, Fire Dept, etc for review. R. Kahle and
E. Madden are working on this project and we are all learning a lot of city history.
C.L.A.S.Y—Nothing available for the Teen Reach Grant project.
New Business: Letter of Resignation has been received from Michelle Leight.
Sylvia brought up the idea of saving box tops similar to the school projects to get extra
funds for school project. Sylvia works part time at the grade school and sees a need for
project money. The committee referred her to the PTO council of the grade schools as
they usually have an ongoing label redemption drive.
Meeting adjourned: Motion by W. Ohare/S. Kurtz at 732pm.
