they will it will probably be beneficial for both the team and the league.

Mr. Caggiano
When they go down they have to schedule the ferry and it is a hard place to play an away game.
Alderman Caron

REMARKS BY THE ALDERMEN
Alderman O’Brien
Thank you, Mr. Mayor, | would just like to remind my fellow Aldermen and the Mayor there is pending
legislation that is coming up that is going to affect this particular committee and that is the $25,000.00 limit to
which and | think this Agenda really kind of highlights of what we sat and heard tonight. | think there were 6
items that were under the $25,000.00 and the amount of the man hours that goes into prepare that type of
documents and Mr. Kooken could probably relate to that.
But it would be more | think expedient and put the hands into where it needs, the decisions where it needs to
be by our wonderful Division Directors to come up with this thing. So as we follow it through the process that
would have left us with us 5, I’m not trying to lighten our load. What! am trying to say | think this would make
our committee more efficient to get down with that $25,000.00 limit. So hopefully it passes through Committee,
and we will see where we go from there. Thank you, Mr. Mayor.
Alderman Caron
That piece of legislation comes before Personnel next Monday at 7:00 just so you know.
Alderman O’Brien
Thank you.
