<br />I <br /> <br />Council Meeting Minutes <br />August 26, 1986 <br /> <br />Council Business, continued <br /> <br />Schmidt recalled,the LITMANCOM discussed timing of sending our <br />response back to the Army; and we were looking at a process of <br />further congressional and senatorial lobbying efforts that we <br />would make; and then, if necessary, the city would go back and <br />try to meet with those in Washington in terms of getting the <br />Department of Defense and the Environmental Protection Agency <br />together to resolve ~he situation. <br /> <br />Sinda felt the lobbying should be delayed until after the first <br />of October after the decision on the superfund bill has been <br />made; then we can sit down and see what it means. <br /> <br />John Drawz, attorney, had suggested to Benke that LITMANCOM meet <br />again the first week in October. <br /> <br />Schmidt noted the North Suburban Cable Commission will be having <br />a worksession on Wednesday, September 3, 1986, regarding the <br />application for transfer of Group W's franchise to a consortium, <br />North Central Communication (Hauser and Continental). <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />Schmidt advised councilmembers that a public meeting has been <br />scheduled for September 18, 1986, on that application; six systems <br />are involved; some systems are contemplating denial of the appli- <br />cation and some are contemplating exercising their authorization <br />of a municipal purchase. Schmidt stated the Commission had not <br />authorized any legal or financial consultants to consider the <br />municipal ownership option; suspects it will be raised at, or <br />prior to, the meeting September 3rd whether in fact the north sub- <br />urbs would consider having it put together; Miller & Schroeder has <br />been looking at whether or not it would be a feasible alternative <br />for other cities (not the north suburbs). <br /> <br />Council reviewed the Y.E.S. letter they received in their packet. <br /> <br />Administrative Secretary announced that the next council meeting <br />is September 9, 1986, the day of the Primary Election; therefore, <br />the meeting would either have to begin at 8:00 p.m. or be re- <br />scheduled. <br /> <br />Councilmembers agreed to begin the September 9, 1986, meeting at <br />8:00 p.m. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />Sinda called an Executive Session following this meeting to dis- <br />cuss a legal matter. <br /> <br />Benke noted he had received a telephone complaint regarding the <br />weeds, the need for grading and cleanup of the development <br />property on Tenth Street N.W. <br /> <br />Page Thirteen <br /> <br />LITMANCOM Update <br /> <br />Cable Commission <br />Update <br /> <br />Y.E.S.
