Minutes are approved. item on the agenda is a proclamation for Maywood Earth Day celebration. At this time I would ask Mr. Dirk Zeilman and Mr. Paul Myers come forward. Gentlemen, welcome to nice meeting. This proclamation is recognizing the 25th anniversary of the L. Wood H. May Environmental Trust of Sherbrooke and County Earth Day and that's a long time to do this. So congratulations to both of you and the organization. A lot of you may not know but the the park belongs to the city. Maywood Park belongs to the city. Whereas the L. Wood H. May Environmental Park Association of Sherbrooke County Incorporated and the Environmental Park Trust of Sherbrooke County were established in 1983 and whereas the Park Association consists of more than 500 members that provide countless hours of volunteer service and the trust provides financial support for the park and its facilities and its programs and whereas Maywood has evolved in the past 25 years from having trails developed, a suspension bridge constructed, ponds created for wildlife, wetlands restored, prairies planted and the William A. Hayson Pavilion built and dedicated and whereas Sherbrooke citizens by the thousands enjoy the park on an annual basis and whereas Maywood has celebrated Earth Day annually for the past 16 years and provides our community with the opportunity to learn about many aspects of our environment. I want Perez by the virtue of the authority vested in me as mayor do hereby extend my personal thanks and congratulations to the L. Wood H. Maywood Environmental Trust of Sherbrooke and County on their celebration of Earth Day and their 25th anniversary on Sunday April 20 2008 and I urge our council as well as all our citizens to enjoy this day at our beautiful Maywood Park. Gentlemen, thank you. Dirt does. Do I have 25 minutes? No. Just on behalf of the Maywood Park Association and its over 600 members we want to thank the city for the support of Sheboygan's Parks and it's a beautiful place and it's a it's really a joint private public sector effort where you of course support the park and pay for some of the employees out there but the L. Wood H. May Trust Association helps raise money. We just built a million and a quarter pavilion out there and as the proclamation said there are thousands of people that come every year to that park so on behalf of the Association thank you for your support of that park and all the parks in Sheboygan. Thank you. Thank you very much, Dirk and Paul. We have one more recognition and this is certificate of recognition for Tyler Lamb. Would you please come up, Tyler? We got them all. Now as mayor I get to do several proclamations and certificates of recognition but that's not very often that we get to do one for heroism. We've done one before this year and this is another one that we're going to be presenting to Tyler for his heroism and saving his little sister's life. I talked to him a little bit earlier. If you look at him now and talk to him earlier you wouldn't think he's a hero but folks he's a hero. It's presented to Tyler Lamb in recognition of saving and we had this written in the way that the facts were presented to us so it sounds really cool okay. In recognition of saving your little sister Madison's life on March 30th 2008 while Madison was playing hide the bouncy ball with little brother Nathan you heard her start to cough and choke. When you realized her airways was obstructed and she could not breathe you knew exactly what to do. You performed the Heimlich maneuver and after 15 or 20 tries the ball popped out of her throat. Your quick response and heroic efforts saved Madison's life. I commend you for your gallant efforts and issue this certificate and a fixed my seal and signature upon it. Tyler thank you for your heroism. And this is a little sister. This is a little sister that was saved here. She's with him standing by his side so he doesn't feel like saying anything today. So thank you again Tyler. And moving along next item on the agenda is a public forum Madam City Clerk. Yes we have one this evening Jody Vanderweel and Jody can you give me your home address please. 1522 North 15th Street. North what? 15th. Okay and can you put the mic right up to your mouth Jody so we can all hear. That better. And you'll have five minutes ma'am. Okay. As soon as Silas made the decision to not run for Alderman for a fourth term I'd made the decision to speak at public forum on his final night on the Common Council. I had a speech prepared and was looking forward to saying a few things that were on my mind. Opinions that I chose to keep to myself but knew that someday I could voice. However I then made the decision to run for Alderperson and I'd a scrap the speech I had written. So I'm standing here tonight with a speech that took on a different perspective due to the fact that we will be changing roles tomorrow evening. Of course the first thing I have to say is thank you to Silas for leadership he has shown to the city of Sheboygan these past six years. Six years I can't believe that much time has passed. I try to put into perspective the many things that happened in six years. Next month we will celebrate our fifteenth anniversary therefore a third of our marriage has consisted of local politics. When Silas ran for Alderman our son Dylan was only nine and he turned 14 today. Our daughter Carly was three and we had no idea we would later have our daughter Jaden. I also remember some of the hot issues in Sheboygan and the challenges that Silas faced in making decisions. Controversial decisions that couldn't possibly please everyone and there were many. Decisions that would even bring debate in our own household. For example the dreaded Sheridan Park issue. Our kids were old enough to understand the gist of what decisions were being made. To say that our household was divided was an understatement. Silas went to one of the meetings and we were unaware of what his vote would be. The kids and I watched the meeting with anticipation. Silas may have had the citizens of Sheboygan to deal with but he also had to come home to a house where some agreed with his decision and some did not. And this is just one example the many difficult and controversial decisions that he has made. Some of which were made many different times. Of course there are always those few people who have said that on some issues Silas voted because he was persuaded to. I know firsthand that his ideas were his own and his decisions were based on what he truly believed to do the right decision. I of course didn't always agree with him. I even threatened to run against him a few times. That being said if I couldn't persuade him to go against his beliefs who could. Silas knew that he had to wake up each morning and look himself in the mirror and know that he made the decision for what he believed to be right. He had to answer to himself first and foremost. I'm proud of what Silas was able to teach our children over the past six years. They were given the understanding of local government even though it may have scared them into trying it themselves. It taught them the difficulty of balancing a family and two jobs and still maintaining the idea that the family came first. But most of all it taught them that with the help of God they can do anything that they put their minds to. And for that I say once again thank you. I look forward to our challenge of role reversal tomorrow. It should be very interesting to say the least. Thank you. Thank you Jody. That's it. Thank you very much. Next item on the agenda is a hearing to designate the north side of the 1400 block of Illinois Avenue as a residential permit parking street. Is there anyone here that would like to address the council? Is there anyone that would like to address the council? Is there anyone that would like to address the council? There being none. President Hanna. Well thank you Mr. Mayor. I would move to close the hearing. Second. Motion second to close hearing under discussion. There is none. All in favor say aye. Aye. Any opposed? Motion carries. Hearing is closed. Next item is a consent agenda 26-1 through 26-38. President Hanna. Well thank you Mr. Mayor. I move that all ROs be accepted and placed on file and all RCs be accepted and adopted. Second. Motion and second to approve the consent agenda under discussion. There is none. Please call the roll. Boke. Kisha. Hanna. Heidemann. Kittlesen. Kleinis. Manny. Meyer. Montemayor. Rinfleisch. Ryan. Vanderweel. Verhaselt. Wongamon. And Bourne. 15 ayes. Motion carries. Communications and Petitions 26-39 by Alderman Heidemann from Ernest Kepler requesting that the mayor and the council reappoint and approve the members of the current finance committee to the 2008-09 finance committee as they are the best finance committee the city has ever had. President Hanna. Thank you Mr. Mayor. I'd make a motion to file the document. Motion and second to file under discussion. There is none. All in favor say aye. Aye. Any opposed? Motion carries. Report of officers 2-26-40 through 26-45 to be referred. Resolutions introduced 3-26-46 by all the persons Hanna, Bourne, Pleunas, Bauch, and Gisha authorizing the issuance and providing for the sale of three million dollars general obligation promissory notes and 850,000 tax general obligation refunding bonds. President Hanna. Thank you Mr. Mayor. I move that the resolution be put upon its passage. Second. Motion and second under discussion. There is none. Alderman Manning. Thank you. I have no problem with this. I think we just owe it to the city to educate our citizens a little bit so I would ask our chair of finance to let citizens know exactly what this represents. President Hanna. Thank you Mr. Mayor. This saves the citizens of Sheboygan $81,000. By refinancing. It's a refinancing action taken by the council and because it's broken down in three million and $850,000 from a separate account it normally would have saved $63,000 I believe but in this case because of the breaking down it saves the taxpayers $81,000 to $83,000. Excellent move by the finance committee. Any further discussion? There is none. Please call the roll. Gisha. Hanna. Hi. Heidemann. Hi. Kittleson. Hi. Clayunas. Hi. Manny. Hi. Meyer. Hi. Montemayor. Hi. Rindfleisch. Hi. Ryan. Hi. Vanderwheel. Hi. Brahasselt. Hi. Wongaman. Hi. Boran. Hi. And Bauch. Hi. 15 ayes. Motion carries. 2647 by all the persons Hanna, Boran, Clayunas, Gisha, and Bauch authorizing a transfer of appropriations in the 2008 budget. President Hanna. Thank you, Mr. Mayer. First, I'd like to make a motion to suspend the rules. Second. Is there any objection to suspension? Please remain. Can I clarify? Sure. This involves the building fixed position boat docks which will encourage several boat shows to be here in Travagan this summer and also adds to our capacity for transient boating. Very good. Is there any objection? If there isn't, you need a motion, Oldman Hanna? I would make a motion to put this resolution upon his passage. Second. Motion is second to put 2647 upon his passage. Any discussion? There is none. Please call the roll. Hanna. Hi. Hi. Heidemann. Hi. Kittleson. Hi. Clayunas. Hi. Manny. Hi. Meyer. Hi. Montemayor. Hi. Rinfleisch. Hi. Ryan. Hi. Van Der Wiel. Hi. Verhasteld. Hi. Wongamun. Hi. Boran. Hi. Bulk. Hi. And Gisha. Hi. 15 ayes. Motion carries. Report of Committee 5, 2648 to be referred. Report of Committee 6, 2649 by Public Works Recommended Filing Documents Submitting a Communication from the Sheboygan County Interfaith Organization, requesting a 10-year commitment to use Fountain Park for their farmer's market and approving the request. All in the mire. Thank you, Your Honor. I move that the RC be accepted and adopted. Second. Motion is second under discussion. There is none. Please call the roll. Heidemann. Hi. Kittleson. Hi. Clayunas. Hi. Manny. Hi. Meyer. Hi. Montemayor. Hi. Rinfleisch. Hi. Ryan. Hi. Van Der Wiel. Hi. Verhasteld. Hi. Wongamun. Hi. Boran. Hi. Bauch. Hi. Giesha. Hi. And Hannah. Hi. 15 ayes. Motion carries. 2650 by Finance Recommended Filing Document Submitting a Communication from Wells Fargo, Brokerage Services, LLC, requesting that the city issue tax exempt debt of approximately half a million dollars to fund a bill in acquisition for Safe Harbor of Sheboygan County and approving the request contingent on the recommendation by the Redevelopment Authority. President Han. Thank you, Mr. Mayor. I move that the RC be accepted and adopted. Second. Motion and second. Under discussion. Go ahead. Thank you, Mr. Mayor. This allows us to extend our ability to issue tax exempt debt through Wells Fargo to Safe Harbor. So Safe Harbor is going to be able to borrow at significantly lower rates. This does not count against our balance sheet. We are not the guarantor of the debt. It's an obligation of Safe Harbor. Very good. Thank you very much. It's a fact that it does not count against our debt. It is a nice feature of the assistance that Safe Harbor got. There is a motion on the floor to accept and adopt. Any further discussion? Alderman Clayton is. Thank you, Your Honor. Is the recommendation from the Redevelopment Authority that it is within a blighted area? It was on that. Attorney McLean. Thank you, Your Honor. Alderman Clayton, I believe the hearing is going to be set for March 8th, May 8th. Need a 20-day notice for that white determination hearing. And there will be time.

Alderman Wildman. Thank you, Your Honor. I make a motion. The RCB accepted and adopted. Second. Motion and second. Under discussion. This is a rather controversial item and the committee felt it best that the entire committee of the whole have an opportunity to discuss it amongst all 16 Alderman and therefore we recommended that it be sent to the committee of the whole. Would it then be appropriate to refer to the committee of the whole instead of accepting and adopting it? You wanted to go to the committee of the whole, right? Yes. Yes. I think it would be best if you make, withdraw the motion to accept and adopt. And I withdraw my original motion and make a motion to forward the document to the committee of the whole.

I move that the resolution be put upon its passage. Second. Motion and second. Under discussion. Alderman, Clayunas. Thank you, Your Honor. At finance meeting, we were concerned as to whether a local furniture manufacturer was contacted. Could anyone answer that question? Namely, Nemshoff furniture? I will ask, allow President Hannah, would you please respond to that? Thank you. It's my understanding that the police department representative that is conducting that did contact Nemshoff. I'm sure if something's favorable, we'll hear back. Thank you, President. Next, we have Alderman Rahassel. Thank you, Your Honor. Can I get an explanation? Yes, I'm always concerned when we remove the word competitive from the phrase competitive bidding process, but I understand from the second whereas that there's some existing arrangement with the state of Wisconsin. Sure. Could I get an explanation? Absolutely. President Hannah, would you please respond? I appreciate the opportunity. Yes, there is a negotiated process with the state of Wisconsin that really allows the city of Sheboygan to leverage on the purchase and power of the state, and so there are pre-existing discounts built into this, so it's really not a risky maneuver by the city at all. It allows us to really move quite freely to enjoy the discounts negotiated by the state. Answer your question, Alderman. Next, we have Vice President Bourne. Alderman Hannah, pretty well covered what I was going to say. Okay, thank you. Any further discussion? There is none. Please call the roll. Wangerman. Bourne. Hi. Bauch. Hi. Disha. Hi. Hannah. Hi.

Motion to not only adjourn, but sign and die. Is there a second? Second. There's a second. Any discussions? Anybody really want to stay here after 35 minutes of conducting business? Somebody wants to say something though. Somebody does want to stay. Alderman Rindfleisch. It's not that I want to stay, Mr. Mayor, but I believe historically we've given an opportunity for the outgoing all the persons to say a few words they'd like to. I'd like to grant that opportunity if they wished to say a few words to the council. There is no need to make motions. There's a second. We have outgoing Alderman... Alderman Mani, would you like to go first? I really don't have much to say. No. It's been a very busy weekend and I'm overwhelmed and we have a little party in my place with this body tonight and after that and after tomorrow I catch up a little bit and I'll be doing other things on Monday evenings, I assure you. But if all meetings went this length I might have chose to run again. But that is not the case. So I do thank voters for electing me on three elections. I thank all those in the city with whom I've worked. A lot of marvelous people and good attitudes and I appreciate all of that that people offer consistently. And I've also appreciated working with you on council floor. I think of many other faces that I have seen in these tears over the years and that makes the council an ongoing living entity. And I will be interested to see how this entity evolves in this next year to come and in the years thereafter. So know that I will be always interested in your work and I wish you well and may your conflicts be few. All in men will would you like to Thank you, honor. I didn't prepare anything but when I started six years ago I thought well at the very least they'll be a good experience a man writing a book about it. I didn't think it'd be too exciting but the last six years was amazing and in the since I said I wasn't going to run anymore everybody thanked me for for doing my best last six years and all I can say is thank you for everybody that have been up here and thank you to the citizens of Shiboygan because every day they just show me that Shiboygan is the best place to live and it has the greatest workers and the greatest people. Thank you. Thank you. And I'd like to just express my my appreciation for your hard work Alderman Matty, Alderman Vanderweel it's it's really interesting and and quite remarkable that all of us bring that little certain different element that puts a whole package together that's pretty powerful when we all start thinking and analyzing and evaluating certain issues we may not all agree at all times but there's one thing that we agree at all times is we all want what's best for Shiboygan we just have a different way of going about it but all of us bring that certain strength that certain character that certain little thing that little plus that makes us all what we are and the good work that we do for the city thank you again and all in favor of adjourning any opposed we stand adjourned
