DISCUSSION

1. Status of Animal Shelter – Mayor Ball indicated that he is ready to proceed


with the development of a new shelter next to the Recreation Building on
Scotch Road. President Wollert and Mr. Steinmann both indicated that this
was long overdue and that continuing delays by the Administration had been
completely nonproductive.

2. Extension of Contract with Joseph Monzo for Financial Consulting - Council


discussed the proposed extension of the contract with Mr. Monzo. They
questioned Mr. Thompson and Mr. Jack regarding the need for a full year’s
extension. After further discussion Council decided to approve an extension
through December 31, 2009 for an amount not to exceed $2,000.

3. Shared Services Agreement With School District-Mr. Steinmann indicated


that while he thought shared services was a good idea, he thought that the
costs of doing business for each entity should be reflected in the appropriate
budget, not shifted to another. Mr. Summiel said that he wants to see a
detailed explanation of the cost savings on the part of both the school district
and the municipality prior to entertaining any agreement.

Mr. Jonathan Savage (President, Ewing School Board) stated that the board had
given the district’s information to Mr. Thompson earlier in the year. Mayor Ball
stated that Council would be supplied with all appropriate information.
