TUESDAY, APRIl, 13, 1999 <br /> Under items not on the Agenda, the Mayor noted his receipt of a letter from the National League <br /> <br />of Cities, which encouraged local support of the League' s National Agenda. Mayor Crabtree asked that <br /> <br />· this be put on the next Council agenda for consideration. Council Member Roop stated that he had <br />received a letter from a resident of Morningside Lane concerning a complaint about a storage shed. Mr. <br />Wayne Knox, Planning, Housing and Zoning Manager, stated that there was a hearing scheduled before <br />the Zoning Appeals Board on the matter on Thursday, April 15, at I0:00 a.m. Council Member Dallas <br />expressed concern over a drainage problem at the lower end of Beaver Street, at the property of Ms. <br />Lillian Hairston, and Mr. Reynolds promised to look into the matter.

Mr. Reynolds then suggested a plan to Council for the use of the <br />funds received. He first suggested that funds in the amount of $644,000 and $420,000 be used to pay off <br />the deficits in the Prison Fund and Street Maintenance Fund accounts, respectively, noting that these two <br />deficit items had been critiqued recently by firms which examined the City's finances and awarded bond <br />ratings.
