2 <br /> Dr. Brown said he will bring up the following during other business: establishing <br />a task force to look at the feasibility of an urban street car on West Main Street and <br />formation of a committee to look at the Mayor’s Global Warming resolution. <br /> <br />AWARDS/RECOGNITIONS <br />: TREASURER OF THE YEAR AWARD <br /> <br /> Dr. Brown presented Ms. Jennifer Brown, City Treasurer, with the Virginia <br />Treasurer of the Year Award. <br /> <br /> Dr. Brown credited Ms. Brown, the City Manager and the City’s Finance team, <br />who are members of the Retirement Commission, for their foresight in having put money <br />aside for benefits as is now required by the federal government. <br /> <br /> Ms. O’Connell introduced Dilyana Kundeva, a visitor from Bulgaria. <br /> <br />PUBLIC <br /> <br /> Ms. Bonnie Martin, 122 Turtle Creek Road #8, representing Charlottesville Peak <br />Oil a group recently formed in Charlottesville, talked about the potential for energy <br />resource depletion and running out of cheap oil. She asked what can we as a community <br />do to prepare for this. <br /> <br /> Mr. Glenn Short, 1510 Burnham Drive, representing Charlottesville Peak Oil, said <br />we need to plan now or panic later. He said the energy demands are exploding and it is <br />imperative to identify alternative sources and to conserve. <br /> <br /> Mr. Scott DeVeaux, 1020 St. Clair Avenue, said peak oil is a shared concern and <br />he cited reports that cite the need for planning. <br /> <br /> Ms. Colette Hall, 101 Robertson Lane, asked about the elimination of a <br />community service officer as recommended in the appropriation on the consent agenda. <br /> <br /> Ms. Elizabeth Breeden, 981 Old Lynchburg Road, President of Art in Place, asked <br />Council to renew the license agreement for Art in Place. She noted that the program has <br />provided a service to the community. <br /> <br /> Ms. Veronica Jones, Youth Coordinator for the Summer Youth Program, thanked <br />Council for funding the program and presented Council with tee-shirts. <br /> <br /> Ms. Reena Thomas, participant in the Summer Youth Program, said the program <br />was good and she feels it should continue. <br /> <br /> Mr. Joshua Gilbert, participant in the Summer Youth Program in the City’s IT <br />Department, said the program helped him gain more knowledge for the future. <br /> <br />CONSENT AGENDA <br /> <br /> Mr. Lynch removed the resolution approving engineering services for Old <br />Lynchburg Road from the consent agenda. <br /> <br /> Police Chief Tim Longo said that the position being eliminated in the Police <br />Department is an administrative support position, not a line officer, that has been vacant <br />for some time. He said it was thought that the School Resource position would be a more <br />prudent use of money. <br /> <br /> On motion by Mr. Norris, seconded by Mr. Lynch, the following consent agenda <br />items were approved by the following vote. Ayes: Dr. Brown, Ms. Hamilton (except <br />th <br />that Ms. Hamilton abstained from voting on the minutes of August 7), Mr. Lynch, Mr. <br />Norris, Mr. Taliaferro. Noes: None. Abstaining: Ms. Hamilton on the minutes of <br />th <br />August 7. <br /> <br />a. Minutes of August 7 <br /> <br />
