| 9:02:39 AM | Ziad Musallam - Letter of Response from Village of Metamora regarding Assumption Waterline |
Commissioner Barnaby questioned how many people are waiting to get hooked on. Mr. Musallam responded that there are 3 potential taps right now. Commissioner Barnaby then questioned some other properties that are in the same area. Commissioner Graf clarified by saying these are probably the residents that have installed taps but have not as of yet hooked up. Mr. Musallam said these were on the original Assumption waterline. Commissioner Graf asked how many signed that original petition. Mr. Musallam said there were probably 12 and none of those ever hooked up. Mr. Musallam explained further that Metamora is saying in their letter if there were 6 plus the original 3 that would hook up the usage would go above what the Village could handle to meet their peak demand. He added that any municipality has to have a reserve capacity that is stipulated by code. Mr. Musallam responded to a question from Commissioner Graf that 251 units were projected by a former petition that involved the AI area as well as the Assumption area. This petition was denied as a result of the negative response to the cost by the potential customers. Commissioner Barnaby felt that the village was crying wolf before the contract was even up and there are these 9 obligations. Mr. Musallam said that Metamora wants to keep their reserve in town to promote growth in the village. Steve Brown, Regional Planning director commented that if there were water available in Assumption there would be tremendous growth in that area. Commissioner Graf asked if the former drawings would still be current. Mr. Musallam said that the cost estimate would more than likely have to be revised. Commissioner Graf asked Mr. Musallam to update this plan and do some calculations then get back with the Commissioners. Then they would look at agreeing to what Metamora is asking in order to allow the 3 taps that are being requested right now. | |
| 9:25:50 AM | Darrell Merillat, Fulton County Sheriff - M.A.N. Unit Update | Commissioner Graf asked Sheriff Merillat about the invitation to Defiance to discuss the future of the M.A.N. unit. Sheriff Merillat said he has not talked with the Defiance County Sheriff but from what information he has received leads him to believe that it relates to the grant possibly being reduced and how the area commissioners could see funding this unit. Each entity currently furnishes a deputy and Sheriff Merillat said that he usually gives $7000 out of his budget. He added that he feels the unit is effective and that their fight against drugs could not be done on their (each entity) own. Commissioner Graf asked if there were any documents ever signed authorizing each county's involvement. Sheriff Merillat said that he signs them every year, which is required for the grant. Commissioner Graf asked what Sheriff Merillat thought about the area judges getting off the CCNO board. Mr. Hall referred to the meeting held the other day by saying that Judge Bumb had suggested their staying on as an advisory board. Commissioner Graf said that CCNO is full to capacity and is a problem that needs addressed. | |
| 9:35:58 AM | Shawn Ferguson, Fulton County Economic Development Director -Department Update | Mr. Ferguson presented his former format with the completed projects for 2005, active projects and updates in administrative, industrial, commercial, workforce development, youth, Economic Devolment legislation, and Fulton Co. CIC areas. There have been 28 projects completed so far in 2005 and 63 active projects. Commissioner Graf asked if the Revolving Loan Fund committee was were it is supposed to be. Mr. Ferguson said he will send him a list - the issue over voting members has been addressed. Commissioner Barnaby asked why the number of active projects in youth acitivites is at zero. Mr. Hall said the RFP is about 3 weeks out for the year round program. It should be put together and able to be kicked off in the fall. Commissioner Barnaby stressed the importance of encouragement for these youth. A PIE III is being planned again and tentatively set for September 2005. Mr. Hall said that our program is being looked at as a pilot program for rural Ohio. Commissioner Graf recognized Roger Freytag as one of the top GIS persons in the state. Mr. Ferguson said the CRA creation for Dover Township has been put on hold. Commissioner Graf said he has posed the question to their trustees on doing a partial zoning for the critical area. Nothing has transpired as of yet. Ongoing discussions will be held with the trustees to see if there is interest to zone this particular area. Mr. Ferguson said they will hold back on the CRA issue until some of these things are addressed and worked through. Mr. Ferguson noted that there will be a planning commission meeting on May 25 regarding the Seibel property rezoning and then that same issue will be before the zoning board on May 26. Commissioner Graf referred to a Wauseon chamber issue with regards to Walmart. He asked if they were a chamber member and Mr. Ferguson said they are. Commissioner Graf asked about putting some teeth in a request for Walmart putting a fence on the property to the east to stop the many bags in that field. Mr. Ferguson will check into this. Commissioner Graf asked about Regional Growth Partnership. Mr. Ferguson said that RGP is going to be a private-owned sector very soon. The membership donation was discussed. Mr. Ferguson will hold up on this until he hears the Commissioners' wishes. Mr. Ferguson closed by reminding the Board that his next scheduled update will be June 16. | |
