Lincoln, Illinois

August 2, 2010

 

Minutes of a regular City Council Meeting held in the Council Chambers of City Hall, Lincoln,

IL, on Tuesday, August 2, 2010.

 

Mayor Snyder called the regular City Council Meeting to order at 7:15 p.m. City Clerk Mrs.

Martinek called the roll. There were nine Aldermen present (Alderman Armbrust, Alderman

Bacon, Alderman Busby, Alderman Hoinacki, Alderman Horn, Alderman Neitzel, Alderman

O’Donohue, Alderman Tibbs, and Alderman Wilmert) and one absent (Alderman Anderson).

Department Heads present were Police Chief Greenslate, Safety and Building Officer Mr.

Lebegue, and City Engineer Mr. Mathon. Also present were City Clerk Mrs. Martinek, Mayor

Snyder, Assistant City Attorney Mr. Blinn Bates, City Treasurer Mr. Conzo, and Recording

Secretary Mrs. Riggs.

 

Those present recited the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag led by Alderman Horn.

 

Public Participation:

Alderman Neitzel said last week two of her neighbors, Vicki and June, came to her and said

Alderman Neitzel we have a problem in North Mayfair and that is where I live. They said

they have six skunks out there that come out every night at 8:30 and run wild through our

neighborhood. She asked them what they were going to do about it and it was decided they

needed to find someone that deals with that type of problem. They did the running for her and

she knew of a gentleman, Les Wood, who is a Lincoln native and is licensed to handle that

particular problem. Last night he was out there with his little cages and caught 5 of the skunks.

He is out there again tonight to catch the last one. What she wanted to say to the people of

Lincoln that if you have a problem try to get together with your neighborhood and if necessary

get a hold of your Alderman and work together to make for a better Lincoln. She was in charge

of collecting the money so they could pay the gentleman. Everyone was glad to give and so it

was a neighborhood thing and she wanted to commend her neighborhood for what they have

done and hope that other neighborhoods would do as they did get together and take care of it.

 

Mayor Snyder thanked Alderman Tibbs for the rearrangement here. We now have our City

Treasurer up front as opposed to a chair in the back.

 

Alderman Tibbs said she would like to thank the gentlemen on Streets and Alleys that supplied

some help along with the firemen who helped loosen some of the screws for the microphones

and they were in there tight.

Mayor Snyder called for the Consent Agenda by Omnibus Vote:

Approve Minutes of the July 13, 2010 Committee as a Whole meeting, July 19, 2010 Regular

City Council Meeting

Approve payment of bills

 

Alderman Horn moved to approve the Consent Agenda and Alderman Neitzel seconded it.

Mayor Snyder asked if there was any discussion or anything anyone wanted to remove from the

consent agenda. City Clerk Mrs. Martinek called the roll call. There were nine yeas (Alderman

Armbrust, Alderman Bacon, Alderman Busby, Alderman Hoinacki, Alderman Horn, Alderman

Neitzel, Alderman O’Donohue, Alderman Tibbs, and Alderman Wilmert), zero nays, and one

absent (Alderman Anderson); motion carried.

 

Approval of any items removed from the Consent Agenda

There were no items removed from the Consent Agenda.

 

Petitions

 

Petition by Brian Miller to construct a concrete sidewalk at 106 Oglesby Avenue

 

Alderman Armbrust moved to accept the petition Brian Miller to construct a concrete sidewalk

at 106 Oglesby Avenue at the expense of the city the amount of work to be determined by the

Street Superintendent and Alderman Neitzel seconded it. Mayor Snyder asked if there was any

discussion.

 

Alderman O’Donohue said is there objective criteria for when we approve something like this

he meant was there a review from the street department whether it is necessary or from the

appropriate department as to whether these things are necessary versus just some Alderman

saying we need to have it. I am not saying that the Alderman is wrong and he was not saying

this particular place should have a sidewalk I am just asking in the bigger sense of the word,

is there a criteria that it goes through or is it just an Alderman says we need to move without

having them review it.

 

Alderman Armbrust said he has looked at it and Mr. Jackson has looked at it there are some

separations in the pavement that are exceeding two inches and we have kind of an unwritten rule

for a 2 inch variation. This thing looks like someone dropped a box of crackers. It was one of the

worst ones that he has seen.

 

Alderman Wilmert said recently there was some criteria that we looked at and I can’t remember

if that was before Alderman O’Donohue was here or not. We decided if it met certain

specifications go ahead and approve the sidewalk replacement.

 

Alderman Armbrust said we didn’t really get into the specs of it but got into how they were

paying and who was paying.

Petition by Brian Miller to construct a concrete sidewalk at 106 Oglesby Avenue

 

Alderman Busby said Alderman O’Donohue usually every one of these petitions is usually

checked out by the department head and I have been committee chairman of this one also and I

always check them and occasionally do now.

 

Alderman O’Donohue said his whole point is he just thinks there needs to be and maybe for

the benefit of future generations that there be someplace including these petitions that it did

go through a process and in this particular case by Street Superintendent or if it is more for

a different type of position to be said that this was looked at by the Police department or the

Fire Department, as the case may be, just so that if somebody comes back and says well you

built them a sidewalk and didn’t build me a sidewalk. You can have an objective criteria.

 

Alderman Busby said that is another reason that Alderman Armbrust added to that that the

length would be decided by the street superintendent. Alderman Tibbs said she felt that it was

also up to all the Aldermen to check on these things as long as we are going to be voting on

them and bring up to Alderman Armbrust, Mr. Jackson or to any department as far as that goes

because we are not just up here saying yes or no we need to know what we are voting on. Mayor

Snyder said perhaps we could ask Alderman Armbrust and Superintendent Mr. Jackson to just

kind of sketch out the process you go through so it is spelled out once you get the petition put

in. Alderman Armbrust said anybody can go look at them. City Clerk Mrs. Martinek called

the roll call. There were nine yeas (Alderman Armbrust, Alderman Bacon, Alderman Busby,

Alderman Hoinacki, Alderman Horn, Alderman Neitzel, Alderman O’Donohue, Alderman

Tibbs, and Alderman Wilmert), zero nays, and one absent (Alderman Anderson); motion carried.

 

Unfinished Business:

 

Petition by Gene Baker for curb and gutter replacement from corner of Clinton and Chicago

Street down East Clinton Street to alley (tabled 5/17/10)

 

Alderman Neitzel said she was going to leave it on the table.

 

Revision of Petition Policy (tabled 6/21/2010)

 

Mayor Snyder said to leave this on the table.

 

Petition by Bill and Georgia Allison for a No Parking sign on Davey Street

 

Alderman Hoinacki made a motion to remove this from the table and Alderman Tibbs seconded

it. City Clerk Mrs. Martinek called the roll call. There were nine yeas (Alderman Armbrust,

Alderman Bacon, Alderman Busby, Alderman Hoinacki, Alderman Horn, Alderman Neitzel,

Alderman O’Donohue, Alderman Tibbs, and Alderman Wilmert), zero nays, and one absent

(Alderman Anderson); motion carried.

Petition by Bill and Georgia Allison for a No Parking sign on Davey Street

 

Alderman Hoinacki said I move to approve the petition for the no parking on Davey Street by

 

Bill and Georgia Allison and Alderman Tibbs seconded it. Alderman Busby said does that

need an ordinance. Mr. Blinn Bates said yes. Mayor Snyder said it will with the approval

of the no parking sign and the direction for the City Attorney to prepare the ordinance.

Alderman O’Donohue said what was the determination that this was needed and necessary?

 

Alderman Wilmert said for me it is just subjective I went by and took a look at it before the

meeting tonight and that is a converted street converted from an alley to a street and it is really

narrow. He couldn’t site any particular policy with the street superintendent but parking in that

little area doesn’t really make sense. The owner has been putting up with that for years and it is

a subjective.

 

Alderman O’Donohue said that is fine he meant he didn’t have a problem with his interpretation

I mean I think there should but the next time someone wants a no parking sign and we say no

you can’t have it. You know why did you give one and why didn’t you give the other. There

should be some sort of criteria that we should use so that someone doesn’t come back and say.

 

Alderman Armbrust said it’s kind of like one answer doesn’t fit all of the cases and we all look

at these. Alderman O’Donohue said I understand that. Alderman Armbrust said if you have

them on both sides parking you won’t be plowing snow. Alderman O’Donohue said he was not

talking about this particular no parking sign but talking about the process by which they decide

to put up a no parking sign.

 

Alderman Tibbs said it is the same as what I said before you need to go out and see the reasons

these people are giving us in this petition. She said you Alderman O’Donohue being new don’t

understand the process and this what the Aldermen need to do when these things are brought up

and we need to know what we are voting for or against and in this case the street is hazardous

going the other direction.

 

Alderman Hoinacki said with the stop sign and with the handicap parking, no parking it is just a

case by case basis and you have to go out and look at each individual petition and sometimes it

doesn’t work but sometimes it does.

 

Alderman Busby said Alderman O’Donohue usually on stop signs we usually have a traffic and

accident count from the police department and Mr. Jackson gets involved in it. You cannot put

down rules that this is what we are going to abide by for any signs on the streets. You have to do

it by case by case basis.

 

Alderman O’Donohue said he was not asking for a rule that is hard and fast but he is asking the

process to be documented.

Petition by Bill and Georgia Allison for a No Parking sign on Davey Street

 

Alderman O’Donohue said I don’t doubt that as an Alderman you don’t care about what is going

on and you should go look and see what is happening but we pay people to be professional on

the Streets and Alleys department, the police department, and fire department to help make

 

these decisions so it is not just an opinion. All I am asking is if this is being done and he knew

it had not be done on every single thing since he has been here but have it so that this is the way

we do and this is the way we do it for all things. If the answer is sometimes yes based on it and

sometimes no that is fine. We are getting opinions based upon objective criteria not just yes/

no. He said he was not asking for a hard fast rule, everything to be yes, everything to be no I

understand that each situation requires its own issues and own things but I am asking for the

process to be the same in all things.

 

Alderman Busby said in all the years he has been up here he has never known any sign to be put

up without the police department or the street department being involved.

 

Alderman Wilmert said that is great we should write it down and he thought Alderman

O’Donohue’s point is well taken and thought he was just as new as he was and it would help him

make some decisions if he had at least something that he could refer to a document when it says

in general you are considering signs consider these issues. At least we have something we can

say hey we said no based on these things or we said yes based on these things. Every situation

is different, it is to be done on its individual merits, wonderful still would like to have something

concrete can go back to and say I didn’t just pull it out of the air I looked at the document

we have some criteria and we looked at these first and considered these items and here is the

decision and here is why. He agreed that they should have something in place and not just for

stop signs or whatever else but just as a whole to go by.

 

Mayor Snyder said he didn’t know if it might be in the policy and procedures manual but it

would almost be a process. Alderman Wilmert said some of the knowledge that Alderman

Busby just said he didn’t know, for instance, every time we consider a sign at least two people

look at it and it would be something good to have written down. Mayor Snyder said we will

discuss the process at the next workshop.

 

Alderman Busby said one of the things for the newer members up here he would suggest even

if you are not on the committee look it over and call the street department, fire department, and

police department. You are an alderman and you serve on all committees.

 

City Clerk Mrs. Martinek called the roll call. There were nine yeas (Alderman Armbrust,

Alderman Bacon, Alderman Busby, Alderman Hoinacki, Alderman Horn, Alderman Neitzel,

Alderman O’Donohue, Alderman Tibbs, and Alderman Wilmert), zero nays, and one absent

(Alderman Anderson); motion carried.

Finance Policy Changes (tabled July 19, 2010)

 

Alderman Horn said to leave it on the table.

 

Alderman Busby said I move to take that off the table and Alderman O’Donohue seconded

it. City Clerk Mrs. Martinek called the roll call. There were four yeas (Alderman Armbrust,

Alderman Bacon, Alderman Busby, and Alderman O’Donohue), five nays (Alderman Hoinacki,

 

Alderman Horn, Alderman Neitzel, Alderman Tibbs, and Alderman Wilmert), and one absent

(Alderman Anderson); motion carried.

New Business/Communications:

 

Approval of Mortgage Release for a CDAP Loan

 

Alderman Horn said I move to approve the mortgage release for a CDAP loan and Alderman

Busby seconded it.

 

Mayor Snyder said I have put at your places tonight minutes from a City Council public hearing

dated January 12, 1993. He knew there was a question about whether or not this loan had been

paid and he believed he had highlighted for them there a sentence which states that one of the

individuals at the public hearing questioned who provided monies for the loan and Mr. Behle

was the City Attorney at the time and stated that it was the State of Illinois stating that it was

Cheeseman Seed Company’s loan that was paid back to the city. It is the sale of the building and

in doing the title search they found this mortgage that was still on the property from this loan and

the question was had the loan ever been paid back. To the best of our gathering abilities it looks

like it was.

 

Alderman Busby thanked City Clerk Mrs. Martinek. Mayor Snyder said it was Mrs. Martinek’s

searching of the minutes. Mrs. Martinek said it was actually a former City Clerk that mentioned

it might be in the minutes. City Clerk Mrs. Martinek called the roll call. There were nine yeas

(Alderman Armbrust, Alderman Bacon, Alderman Busby, Alderman Hoinacki, Alderman Horn,

Alderman Neitzel, Alderman O’Donohue, Alderman Tibbs, and Alderman Wilmert), zero nays,

and one absent (Alderman Anderson); motion carried.

Approve DCEO grant submission for $675,000.00 and approve IDOT grant submission for

$1,875,000.00

 

Alderman Neitzel said I move to approve grant submissions one to the DCEO for

675,000.00 and the other from IDOT for $1,875,000.00 and Alderman Hoinacki seconded it.

 

Mayor Snyder said he would like to explain. These are two opportunities for grant funding that

have come up and both of them have come up with work that would be done for downtown. The

DCEO grant is under the CDAP program which is the Community Development Assistance

 

Program and that grant would be in the amount of $675,000.00. It requests three different types

of things to be done with the funds first off it would be for planning, some streetscape design

planning, there would be some façade analysis work and some façade work planning. Also there

would be a development of a strategic plan for downtown and also some development of historic

preservation and education work for downtown as well. There would also be some dollars for

reconstruction and demolition of properties that didn’t meet city codes or considered blighted.

He was sure that Mr. Lebegue would have a list that he might want to suggest to us but there

might be. There would be some money in there for that as well. Also there would be money set

aside for actually doing the façade improvement work that would be identified in that façade

analysis and that is in the amount of $675,000.00 to DCEO. The IDOT grant is through the

Illinois Transportation Enhancement program and that would basically be for two pieces. First it

would be for streetscape planning for downtown so planning actually a streetscape design for

downtown. Main Street Lincoln has a rendition for a possible look for streetscape. This would

actually get more detailed and could actually provide dollars for engineering there as well and

also provide actual dollars for streetscape construction which would be improving the sidewalks,

the new lighting for downtown, landscaping, possibly parking lot enhancements depending on

what might happen there. The ITEP program has a maximum amount of $2M and we would

only request this little over $1.8M. Both of those do have match requirements but actually we

can, the way it was explained to him we do have some local and state dollars that we could count

towards our match in the non home rule infrastructure fund we had set aside $100,000.00 for this

year for downtown infrastructure work and that could be used as part of the match. We also have

whenever it arrives $140,000.00 from the state for $100,000.00 for resurfacing downtown

parking lots and another $40,000.00 for downtown improvements and that could count towards

the match. He understood they could also grant each grant towards the other. If we get one we

could count that as a match towards the other. He thought there were dollars available there for

us to count towards the match and wouldn’t have to incur any more tax dollars together with

anyone of these grants if we were to receive it. Lisa Kramer, who he thought most of them know

probably through her work for Hanson & Associates. She is preparing the grant applications for

each of these. She has her own firm that she and her husband are now starting called Prairie

Engineers of Illinois and they are doing for her own firm. She has given the city a greatly

reduced price for the preparation of the application because she is a Lincoln resident and she

wants to see it happen.

Approve DCEO grant submission for $675,000.00 and approve IDOT grant submission for

$1,875,000.00

 

Mayor Snyder said we get some extra points if we have some public participation so what they

would like to do if you approve the submission tonight or at least approve for the city to at

least apply for these tonight they would hold an open house and public hearing on August 10,

2010. They would have like an open house arrangement where the downtown merchants or

public could talk about what they think might be improvements for downtown and what they

think they might want to pursue. The open house would be from 4-6 August 10, 2010 and

then have a public hearing, Mrs. Kramer will conduct the public hearing at 6:00 p.m. and by

doing that and having public participation they gain additional points in the scoring of the grant

 

application. He is just asking for Council approval and wanted them to all be aware that they

were applying for these grants. There is a cost for the application and they have been able to

find a private donor who will pay for one of these grants to be prepared and they are looking

for another private donor if anyone would like to do that, if not they have identified some

dollars in the Mayor’s budget they could address that. It could mean some significant dollars

to do some nice things downtown and it’s our downtown and it is time to do some renovations.

 

Alderman O’Donohue asked who would administer if they get it. Mayor Snyder said the city

would be the grant applicant and they would have to, any of the work to be done would have

to comply with all the requirements for public works. City Clerk Mrs. Martinek called the

roll call. There were nine yeas (Alderman Armbrust, Alderman Bacon, Alderman Busby,

Alderman Hoinacki, Alderman Horn, Alderman Neitzel, Alderman O’Donohue, Alderman

Tibbs, and Alderman Wilmert), zero nays, and one absent (Alderman Anderson); motion carried.

 

Approve Logan County Fair Association to pay $436.14 for sweeping at the fairgrounds

 

Alderman Neitzel made a motion to approve the Logan County Fair Association to pay no more

than $436.14 for the sweeping of the Logan County Fairgrounds and Alderman Bacon seconded

it. Mayor Snyder asked if there was any discussion. City Clerk Mrs. Martinek called the roll

call. There were eight yeas (Alderman Bacon, Alderman Busby, Alderman Hoinacki, Alderman

Horn, Alderman Neitzel, Alderman O’Donohue, Alderman Tibbs, and Alderman Wilmert),

zero nays, one abstention (Alderman Armbrust), and one absent (Alderman Anderson); motion

carried.

 

Award bid to P. H. Broughton in the amount of $538,970.82

 

Alderman Neitzel made a motion to award of the 2010 Broadway Overlay project to P. H.

Broughton in the amount of $538,970.82 and Alderman Bacon seconded it. Mayor Snyder

asked if there was discussion. Alderman Wilmert asked for someone to summarize again.

 

Mr. Mathon said that was approximately $35,000.00 under the estimate.

Award bid to P. H. Broughton in the amount of $538,970.82

 

Mr. Mathon said that work runs from Broadway Street from Hamilton to Limit Street and it

will be a mill and overlay of the existing asphalt service with inlet repairs and ADA sidewalk

repair and construction. Alderman Wilmert said how about a summary where the money

is coming from. Mr. Mathon said it would be paid out of the half cent infrastructure tax.

 

Mayor Snyder said Broadway Street from Hamilton to Limit Street, initially if you remember

back this was going to be funded with our stimulus dollars and then at one point we kind of

swapped that with State Street because we are going to look at perhaps running the bike path

down Broadway and then that grand funding never came available through the state so they

decided to go ahead and do the State Street and proceed with this from the non home rule

infrastructure fund. He thought the bike path money has now become available but it was too

 

late because they had already pulled the trigger to move forward.

 

City Clerk Mrs. Martinek called the roll call. There were nine yeas (Alderman Armbrust,

Alderman Bacon, Alderman Busby, Alderman Hoinacki, Alderman Horn, Alderman Neitzel,

Alderman O’Donohue, Alderman Tibbs, and Alderman Wilmert), zero nays, and one absent

(Alderman Anderson); motion carried.

 

Permission to go out to bid for a storage facility

 

Alderman Busby made a motion to approve a 24 X 100 storage building bids to be returned

by August 24, 2010 and Alderman Hoinacki seconded it. Mayor Snyder asked if there was

discussion. Alderman Tibbs said this building is going to be located. Alderman Busby said at

the sewer plant for equipment out of the weather they don’t have enough room to put it under.

Alderman Neitzel said she thought it was a bad time to go out for bids right now and she thought

they should wait for their money to come in. Alderman Busby said they were going to out for

bids and didn’t have to award the bids.

 

Alderman Tibbs said I am looking at negative and positive. She said on the positive side they

would know dollar wise how much it is. She knew that things go up every day but if it would

also help in our future planning to know where we would be as far as expense for this shed and

with that said she believed that she would approve to do that.

 

City Clerk Mrs. Martinek called the roll call. There were seven yeas (Alderman Armbrust,

Alderman Bacon, Alderman Busby, Alderman Hoinacki, Alderman O’Donohue, Alderman

Tibbs, and Alderman Wilmert), two nays (Alderman Horn and Alderman Neitzel), and one

absent (Alderman Anderson); motion carried.

Permission to go out for bid for a poured wall

 

Alderman Busby said I move to go out for bid for a poured wall for the sludge storage bids

to be returned August 24, 2010 and Alderman Hoinacki seconded it. Alderman O’Donohue

asked why they were doing this. Alderman Busby said do you want sludge all over the ground.

Alderman O’Donohue said I presume we have something in place. Alderman Busby said no

room and if they don’t do it EPA will.

 

Mr. Mathon said years ago when the wastewater plant was upgraded in 2004 raising the

walls around this particular bed was one of the items that was cut out of the project as a cost

saving factor basically. The storage is a little bit reduced from what we can theoretically

store as well as when we have heavy rainfall sometimes the water comes off the hill towards

that storage area. Water gets into the storage area where we are trying to dry the sludge.

 

Alderman Neitzel said she thought they had trucks that took that out. Mr. Mathon said we

 

do but we only haul sludge out typically once a year, in the fall, after the crops come out.

Alderman Busby said the sludge is only hauled out once a year because it is land applied

and the farmers only want it on there at a certain time. City Clerk Mrs. Martinek called the

roll call. There were six yeas (Alderman Armbrust, Alderman Bacon, Alderman Busby,

Alderman Hoinacki, Alderman O’Donohue, and Alderman Wilmert), two nays (Alderman Horn,

Alderman Neitzel, and Alderman Tibbs), and one absent (Alderman Anderson); motion carried.

 

Approve parking spaces on Pulaski Street

 

Alderman Neitzel made a motion to approve the parking spaces on the 600 Block of Pulaski

Street and Alderman Bacon seconded it. Mayor Snyder asked if there was any discussion.

 

Alderman Tibbs said she looked at this crooked road. The way it is all lined up and IDOT

marked off our streets it is really historically uncommon to have your line like they do.

 

Mr. Mathon said they would move the center line so they can create the parking spaces.

Alderman Tibbs said you have to be so many feet from the stop sign anyway. Mr. Mathon said

correct there is a fire hydrant on that corner also there is room because the sidewalk area is no

longer used as a commercial entrance approach to that parking lot. Alderman Busby asked

if the street was wide enough. Mr. Mathon said yes it is. City Clerk Mrs. Martinek called

the roll call. There were nine yeas (Alderman Armbrust, Alderman Bacon, Alderman Busby,

Alderman Hoinacki, Alderman Horn, Alderman Neitzel, Alderman O’Donohue, Alderman

Tibbs, and Alderman Wilmert), zero nays, and one absent (Alderman Anderson); motion carried.

 

Approve publishing of delinquent sewerage bill list

 

Alderman Busby said I move for approval to publish the delinquent sewerage bill list and

Alderman Neitzel seconded it.

Approve publishing of delinquent sewerage bill list

 

Alderman Busby said he apologized that he didn’t bring this up last week and had completely

forgotten about it. This is legal to do and they do it with taxes and he thought maybe if they

were to publish it they might embarrass some people to pay their bills. He wanted to see it in the

paper at least once and also thought about www.lincolndailynews.com and maybe their website.

He thought there would be some surprised people in the city.

 

Mr. Conzo said point of clarification, at what point would they publish them. He knew there was

an $8.00 charge list.

 

Alderman Busby said they would have to tell the paper that it’s as of this date. Mayor Snyder

said maybe some of miss the 20th day of the month when it’s due. Alderman Busby said I doubt

that you would be on that list. Mayor Snyder said he thought the list that Mrs. Martinek showed

him were several hundred dollars that people owe. Mrs. Martinek said these are the ones that

have liens on them after three months.

 

City Clerk Mrs. Martinek called the roll call. There were nine yeas (Alderman Armbrust,

Alderman Bacon, Alderman Busby, Alderman Hoinacki, Alderman Horn, Alderman Neitzel,

Alderman O’Donohue, Alderman Tibbs, and Alderman Wilmert), zero nays, and one absent

(Alderman Anderson); motion carried.

 

Announcements

 

There were no announcements to be made.

 

Alderman Busby made a motion to adjourn the meeting and Alderman Neitzel seconded the

motion. There were nine yeas (Alderman Armbrust, Alderman Bacon, Alderman Busby,

Alderman Hoinacki, Alderman Horn, Alderman Neitzel, Alderman O’Donohue, Alderman

Tibbs, and Alderman Wilmert), zero nays, and one absent (Alderman Anderson); motion carried.
