Mr. Cornett encouraged Council members to meet members of sister cities when they are visiting Oklahoma City. Mr. Cornett said visitors to our City are always very pleased and impressed. Mayor Humphreys was invited by the visitors from Haiku to attend their city in November. Mr. McAtee ran the 1.2 mile event in the Oklahoma City Memorial Marathon with his grandchildren this weekend. Mr. McAtee said the marathon was very successful and thanked City staff for their cooperation in making this event so great. Mr. McAtee attended an awards ceremony Friday evening where Mr. Couch was presented with a meritorious award. Mr. McAtee congratulated Mr. Couch and his staff. Mr. Rinehart announced a new traffic light will be installed on Sooner Road and SE 48th Street. There have been numerous accidents at this location and many requests for the light. Mr. Rinehart thanked Paul Brum and the Public Works Department for implementing this project. The traffic light will benefit many residents in the area. Mr. Foshee welcomed Youth Councilor Amanda Johnson, Classen School of Advanced Studies. Mr. Foshee thanked everyone for their concern and said his mother is recovering nicely from a serious operation. Mr. Foshee asked if there are any regulations on placement of portable toilets on home construction sites. Mr. Foshee has a house in his ward under construction where the builder placed the portable toilet near the driveway of the adjacent home. Mayor Humphreys said the problem is the toilets must be near the street to be accessed by the trucks that service them. Mr. Foshee thinks they should at least be placed in the center of the property so they are not near neighbors' property lines. Mr. Foshee is going to try to contact the builder to work something out. Ms. Simank said it is spring and many grand old home tours are beginning in the City. Council has been invited this Saturday, May 4th, from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. to the Crestwood Home Tour.

Ms. Simank encouraged all the Mesta Park residents to attend the meeting and meet the consultant. Ms. Johnson welcomed her third grandchild, Mason Taylor Givens, born last Tuesday while she was in the Council meeting. Ms. Johnson attended an awareness workshop last Saturday regarding superfund sites. Ms. Johnson said there were four superfund sites in Oklahoma City in Ward 7. Three of those sites were remediated and one is pending. Ms. Johnson was pleased to make the citizens of the area aware of the problems associated with these type facilities. Ms. Johnson said the CED Committee will visit Oklahoma City May 3-4, 2002. Ms. Johnson thanked Paul Brum and everyone involved in keeping water in the river until the conference is over. Ms. Johnson invited Mayor Humphreys and Council members to attend any of the functions they wish. Mr. Liebmann congratulated the Arts Festival for the wonderful festival this year. Mr. Liebmann attended a party there Tuesday evening and had a wonderful time. Mr. Liebmann congratulated the Greater Oklahoma City Chamber of Commerce on the article in today's Daily Oklahoman. General Dick Burpee has done a great job in leading the chamber.
