Hartford City Council Meeting

Tuesday, October 15, 2002

Prepared by: Citizens’ Research Education Network, Hartford Public Library, and Hartford 2000

There are 95 items on the regular agenda. The Council meeting will begin at 8 P. M. at Hartford City Hall in Council Chambers. A public hearing, which will begin at 7:30 P.M., will precede the Council. The next Council meeting will be October 28, 2002. The Council meeting is being held on Tuesday rather than Monday because of the Columbus Day Holiday.

Rodent Control Plan – The Council will send to public hearing November 18 an ordinance which would require that all new development – which includes new buildings and new additions to existing buildings – have a Rodent Control Plan to eliminate rodents on the entire property. The plan would include a contract with a licensed exterminator. The plan would require approval by the Rodent Control Division and building permits will not be issued until the “planning and baiting effort” is complete and approved. (Item #77)

Hartford Children Trust Fund – The Council will vote on a resolution, which would create the Hartford Children Trust Fund. If established, the income from the fund would be used for implementing children and youth programs. The principal of the fund would consist of several sources including: proceeds from specific fund raising events, gifts or contributions made to

the city to create the fund, and contributions from the general fund resulting from savings with the Human Services Department 2001-2002 operating budget. This ordinance has been to public hearing and is on the calendar for action. (Item #49)

City Plan Implementation Strategy -- The Council will vote on a resolution adopting the City Plan Implementation Strategy. The Strategy is the product of the City Plan Implementation Taskforce, which has been working with the creators of various plans to prioritize elements within the plans, and assign timelines and responsibilities for implementation. (Item #88)

Public Health Preparedness for Bioterrorism – The Council will vote on a resolution which would authorize City Manager Lee Erdmann to accept $32,769 for the Hartford Health Department to develop the infrastructure needed to prepare for a bioterrorism event. The funds will be provided by the Centers for Disease Control and the Connecticut Department of Public Health. (Item #15)
