42 Regular Meeting October 27, 1986 Page 2 Staff did not have the expertise to assist this Board. Mr. Hildebrandt recommended that adequate executive staff time needed to be involved with this Board if a permanent Board is established. A copy of the Board's report is attached to these minutes. Mayor Younger introduced for consideration approval of $750.00 from contingency funds for a luncheon on Student Government Day (in December, 1986). Mr. Guerra moved to table this matter until later in the meet- ing and Ms. Kissler seconded the motion, which passed unanimously. Mayor Younger introduced for consideration approval of the placement of the Old Fire Station/City Hall Bell. Mayor Younger stated he thought it had been consensus of Council to place the Bellon City Hall property, and moved that the Bell be so placed. Mr. Farr seconded the motion, which passed unanimously. Mr. Coddington stated he would like the Council to adopt a Resolution for the placement of the Bellon City Hall property and Mr. Guerra concurred. The City Attorney was directed to prepare a Resolution for the placement of the Bell to be on City Hall property at the next Regular Meeting. Mayor Younger introduced for consideration approval for fundraising campaign to build a setting for the Old Fire Station/City Hall Bell. It was consensus of Council to do so and for the press, Mr. Habingreither and the Heritage Association to be involved in the campaign.
