Mr. Don <br />Hoglund is also working on a device that could warn deaf persons. <br />This particular radio is not just a weather alert radio, but also <br />an emergency alert radio. <br />Mr. Marier asked if Mr. Cape was suggesting the City buy the radios <br />or if the City would sell them at a reduced cost. Mr. Cape felt <br />if the resident had to pay something they would take better care <br />of the radio. <br />Mr. Marier asked who would maintain the radios. Mr. Cape said the <br />radio in the clerk's office is 5 or 6 years old and has never needed <br />repair. One of the Civil Defense members could also repair them. <br />Mr. Cape said the Federal Government is recommending sirens as the <br />means of warning the public. He said the only cities currently <br />getting federal money for the sirens are large cities with full - <br />time staff and power to obtain the funds. The funds are not avail- <br />able to Lino Lakes. <br />Mr. Marier asked Mr. Cape to return next month with further informa- <br />tion for the Council. <br />Mr. Marier moved to table this item until next month. Mr. Bohjanen <br />seconded the motion. Motion carried. <br />PUBLIC HEARING - SENIOR CENTER PUBLIC SERVICE PROJECT - COMMUNITY <br />DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT - RESOLUTION #84 -32. <br />Mr. Marier opened the public hearing at 7:40 P.M. Mr. Schumacher <br />told the Council this resolution is for designating $7,367 for <br />basic operation of the Senior Center for the first year. It is <br />an eligible project and he outlined the expenses. He also noted <br />the seniors' plan to have fund raisers and expect participation <br />from service organizations to help with their expenses. <br />Mr. Reinert asked if the expense for the coordinator will be an <br />ongoing expense. Mr. Schumacher felt this would be up to the <br />seniors, however, they expect to be self supporting. This resolu- <br />tion is just for the organizational or introductory expenses for <br />one year. <br />Mr. Bohjanen suggested that at the end of the fourth (4th) para- <br />graph of Resolution 84 -32, the wording "for one year as outlined" <br />be added. <br />Mr. Kulaszewicz moved to close the public hearing at 7:40 P.M. <br />Mr. Bohjanen seconded the motion. Motion carried. <br />Mr. Kulaszewicz moved to adopt Resolution #84 -32 with the fourth <br />paragraph amended as suggested by Mr. Bohjanen. Mr. Bohjanen <br />seconded the motion. Motion carried. <br />
