Motion by Kokoski, seconded by Kalo to adopt. Clerk called for discussion.County Administrator Cordes said there are lots of things going on with 911. Funds have been spent for the platform of New World

Technology and working on all the GPS components. All law enforcement jurisdictions are on board with the reverse 911. He stated that rather than build a new center a building was already available on Burns Road, Elyria that can accommodate 911 and the old office will be the backup center. The equipment is around $3-4 million and could be decreased. There are 80% of calls placed by cell phone and over 10,000+ calls received a day

Commissioner Kokoski said Cuyahoga County unveiled today text messages. Mr. Cordes said not sure how they did that since they have so many PSAP’s but glad they did. We are working on the GIS and we will have this capability as well.

Commissioner Lundy said he has heard feedback from the taxpayers that a renewal is ok, but nothing else. Mr. Cordes said we owe it to the taxpayers, we are taking a risk but we will work on this levy and no additional funds are needed at this very point, but we never know what the state will do, he would prefer just to stay course at this point.

In the matter of declaring it necessary to levy a tax in )excess of the Ten Mill Limitation to provide funds for)the operation of the County Criminal Justice Services,)for support of the County Sheriff’s Drug Task Force )pursuant to ORC 5705.19 (LL) and 307.45(A)(1) for ) June 28, 2017five (5) years to be placed on the November 7, 2017 )ballot for duplicate year 2018, collectable in 2019 with)options of .080 mill replacement, .080 mill renewal or ).080 mill renewal with a .010 increase )

Motion by Kokoski, seconded by Kalo to adopt. Clerk called for discussion.County Administrator Cordes said there have been discussions taken place with the Sheriff and DTF and was hoping to make a big

announcement today along with this levy request but hopefully all the parties will be together for July 19 meeting. He feels comfortable to keep this levy at the level it is at. Commissioner Kalo said with the building and all, was not really expecting a renewal. Mr. Cordes said the taxpayers are fatigue, not happy with the Commissioners and he understands that and will work to provide that it can be done for now at the renewal. Commissioner Kokoski said taxpayers are not happy with any increase levy and how the homeowners have to burden everything, they are ok with renewal but no increases. Mr. Cordes said there is a drug epidemic in Northeast Ohio actually all over and Lorain County will make it a hostile environment to have narcotics here and the misuse of such. DTF needs to come into the 2017 century, collaborations with other right partners, we will never eliminate the illegal trafficking in drugs in the county, but this will make a difference, come together, get it done and leadership and opportunity will be provided

Commissioner Kalo said there are other counties that have received the mobile freezer for all the bodies.Commissioner Lundy said taxpayers are responsible and a renewal is fair. The state has taken $35 million for local government funds

and Columbus is not here to help us we need help with treatment facility, we cannot arrest ourselves out of this. The state has abandoned us, cuts across the state and nation are increasing and it falls onto the local government. The state has that $2 billion surplus and the politics need to stop. The Lorain county Veterans Court has helped a lot of people but there are people still out there that just let these people die; they could be your family member. These people that have addictions need help and they can be productive people. Commissioner Kokoski said this is a serious problem the Governor has not even declared it an epidemic but something needs to be done.

Discussion continued and the following resolution was adopted;

g. PUBLIC COMMENT (Please limit your comments to three minutes)

Jeff Baxter, Elyria thanked the Commissioners for allowing him to educate the voters in Lorain County. There are 2 petition initiatives that folks are gathering signatures for. He spoke with 1000+ voters in the past months and has been a lot of work to educate them on how a petition process works, but it is a good thing. The voters appreciate it and a lot of knowledge has been gained by the voters. He continues to talk with voters and voters are unhappy so he will ask again for the commissioners to consider a resolution to repeal the sales tax resolution after 1 year

Jeannie Donaldson, Lorain and CEO of YWCA, Elyria. She comes before the Commissioners, it is that time of year again for fairs, festivals, funnel cakes, fried ice cream, fried cheese, etc., and however there will be several thousands of them that will not go to the Lorain county fair this year. He knows that some of the Commissioners did not attend the fair last year. She is coming here again, to ask the Commissioners to not give up with having the confederate flag at the county fairgrounds. She did attended a fair meeting about 1 month ago and reminded them that the State of Ohio fair does not permit the sale of the confederate merchandise, also reminded them of their own bylaws. Item 1, Section 1, Lorain county fair board under no circumstances that any questionable nature will be sold or permitted on their grounds and there are several thousands of them that feel the confederate flag and memorable is highly controversial. Some folks say why is YWCA involved in this activity. The fair minded collation has several organizations involved and the YWCA and mission around the country are to embrace the power of women, we look at issues of racial justice and what we know working with other organizations, for many folks thinking the confederate flag is just part of clothing, history, nostalgic but they know that the flag is the number one Neo Nazi, White Supremacist groups, which seems not a big deal but to them it is, it is racist. She does it because it is her job but she also has a personal connection, her mother came from Tacoma, GA, 7 years old in 1925 and moved to Sandusky Ohio. Her dad lived in Nashville in 1912. For a lot of African Americans and the south and confederate flag and at that time was traumatized of people. It is similar to Veterans they do not talk about Vietnam War and many do not talk about the experience in the south. She can remember when she was watching TV and it showed the Ku Klux Klan riding into town. Her mother told her that when she was a little girl in Tacoma GA, right next to South Carolina, her dad had already moved to Sandusky to work in the steel factory, so her grandmother, mom and five siblings were still in GA and she was about 5-6 years old. She said the KKK went up to the house and her grandmother went out with a rifle and said you know there is no one here but her and her children, so this is trauma. She said when she was a teenager she use to watch her dad be very respectful with white people, yes sir, no mama, etc and asked why are you like this and did not know until she learned history that you needed to walk on the right side of the street, etc or you were going to get lynched. She said the confederate flag is the number one symbol for this kind of activity up until the civil rights movement so there is no reason in Ohio, especially at our Lorain county fair that this should be sold. She asked the commissioners as ex-officio officers of the fair board, according to their bylaws to remind their colleagues to do what the Ohio state fair board has done and ban the sale of merchandise.

Commissioner Lundy said her request is very reasonable request and simply follow the policy and guidelines of the state fair. State fair does not make decisions lightly and ask any focus groups anywhere in the country if this symbol that unites or divides, symbol of love or hate and you would get the clear definition of what it is for. He continues to believe people see but don’t want to get the wrong perception of the county, we are a very diverse county, we are home of the International City and it’s also important for her to know that the Commissioners are very supportive of the 4h students involved with projects out there and decisions are made by adults and we don’t want it to have a negative impact on the children and we have reached out for awards that will be presented and make clear that we support the students and disappointed by some decisions that were made by adults but support the students.

Public comment cont. June 28, 2017

Gerald Phillips, Avon Lake said he has been a resident for 34 years, community activities, a rebel rouser. He got engaged from Columbia Township regards to the annexation and happy to report that the applicant withdrew the application. He said will be forthcoming to the Commissioners but its mute because Olmsted Falls would pass a resolution on or before the 29 th. This process of Columbia Township was an example of democracy, getting residents of both communities educated, involved and clear example of efficient process and was a good citizen’s effort to get involved. The council meeting was packed, exceed the fire code and don’t expect this issue to come back and in his opinion the representative people in Olmsted Falls realize that it is not good for their community or township and was withdrawn, and have votes call the roll and knew it would get defeated so the July 18 hearing will not be needed.

He stated he was at the Lorain International festival and got 500 signatures on the sales tax initiative and will get enough to meet requirements to place on the ballot. He said Mr. Innes has indicted that this was in litigation and hope to avoid because it just creates more bad will and hope the commissioners will get above the low rating of Donald Trump

He also stated the 7th district will get enough signatures for their initiative to place on the ballot and what is helping them gain support is the sales tax issue and hope the Commissioners are listening to Jeff Baxter and him and trying to help the commissioners. He said he is not in favor of this initiative, petition, contents or group behind it. He is open to the concept of a charter form of government for a better way of government but not supportive of this one. He did sign this petition back in March and intend to notify the circulator that he wants his signature removed because he does not want to be associated with this. If this issue gets on the ballot. Commissioner Lundy asked why not. Mr. Phillips said why, because he does not support the petition and the actual language in it. Commissioner Lundy asked what parts. Mr. Phillips said that is for another day of discussions. Mr. Phillips said he is also not supportive of the people involved in this process. If this gets on the ballot, fails and commissioners continue to ignore the taxpayers and don’t listen, example was the sales tax and there may be a new group for a new charter that is a better one in the future. This issue may not go away. He stated that he and Mr. Innes met to try to work something out with the sales tax issue, made progress still pursuing but there is a small time frame. He said some of the ideas are what Mr. Baxter mentioned. His personal thoughts on the issue of a sales tax and understand the Commissioners position and the reason is lowest in the state, and spoke with many people and have some potential ideas to educate the people, inform and that it is needed to get pass, limit to a specific purpose, not to the general fund and if needed get a citizens advisory group to help with the process of determining need to monitor and expend. There are certain issue that he thinks the public will be very respective too; drug enforcement, drug treatment, the opiod problem, sheriff, safety, 911, this would help. He has been an activities and he was successful in get the annexation opposed, privatizing metro hospital, which is public today, representative groups in Lakewood to save their homes from eminent domain and he has previously indicated to the commissioners he would help them and this is sincere and hope that commissioners are listening and restore your confidence with the people.
