Mayor’s Report: Mayor Ellender announced that he had received the ballot
language (1974 Liquor Ballot) from Montgomery County. There were more no
votes than yes. It seems to have created a ban on hard liquor which does not
effect the sale of beer or wine. The Law Director is reviewing this and will
have an opinion by the next council meeting.

Mayor Ellender announced that there will be a Special Fire Levy on the
ballot, February 7th . This means we would withdraw from JEMS and have our
own combined fire and medical services. At this time we have 1.8 mil which
goes to JEMS and 2.0 mil for the Fire. 308 mil which is really the same as
we have now but will take away from the JEMS and give to Carlisle. This
will help our ISO rating which we are in jeopardy of losing. If we lose our
ISO rating this could increase our home insurance by 18-20%.

Manager’s Report: Asked Clerk to check on schedules of everyone for the
annual tour.

Mayor asked for a Finance Committee meeting at 6:30PM, January 24th to be
held.

AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 1423, SECTION 1423.01 OF THE CODIFIED
ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF CARLISLE AND DECLARING AN EMERGENCY.

Discussion: Ohio Building Code adopted in 2004 approved new residential
building code, most of the code stayed the same except changes for the
gasoline inspections. The inspections had been done by the utility
companies. Then the OBOA code made the local building departments
responsible for testing. The OBOA code is based on the International Fuel
Gas Code, while Cinergy inspects to the National Fuel Gas Code.

This ordinance is amending Chapter 1423 of the City Code to delete section
G2417 (406) Inspection, Testing, and Purging of the OBOA Residential Code.
By deleting the section, responsibility for inspections will fall to the
local utility company utilizing their own set of standards and
documentation.

Mr. Winkler made a motion to suspend the rules and require the Ordinance to
be read on three separate occasions and have the ordinance read by title
only. Seconded by Mrs. Thompson.

Roll call: Mr. Bowles, aye; Mrs. Branson, aye; Mayor Ellender, aye; Mr.
Winkler, aye; Mrs. Long, aye; Mrs. Thompson, aye; Mr. Humphries, aye.

Winkler, aye; Mrs. Long, aye; Mrs. Thompson, aye; Mr. Humphries, aye.

Ordinance passed of this date will be entered into Ordinance Record Book as
