5. COURTESY OF THE FLOOR (for public comment on ordinances and resolutions to be voted on by Council this evening)

Bill No. 30 – 2003 – Amending Zoning Ordinance – Establishing Section 1304.07 –
R-R Residential District Overlay Zone

Robert Lovingood, P.O. Box 20001, noting he is secretary of the Macada Association, commented that many people have single family homes and would like to keep it that way, and keep the nature and character of the community. Mr. Lovingood, stressing it is important to maintain the zoning of the area in question, said he feels the proposed RR Overlay District is a euphemism for the RR District. Mr. Lovingood, communicating that some individuals from New York and New Jersey want to buy or build larger homes in the community, stated "we've run out of land". Mr. Lovingood asserted "we want to have stable neighborhoods…and a stable tax base". Mr. Lovingood asked City Council to vote no on Bill No. 30 - 2003. Mr. Lovingood pointed out that the purpose of zoning in any community is to protect residents and maintain a quality of life.

6. OLD BUSINESS

Dangerous Animals Ordinance

Mr. Arcelay asked if the Administration could expound upon the proposed Ordinance pertaining to vicious dogs and provide the status of the process.

Mayor Delgrosso, advising there has been an investigation of ordinances throughout Pennsylvania and other states, stated the Administration is compiling and reviewing the information to identify the best ordinances.

Dana Grubb, Deputy Director of Community Development, affirmed that, as his memorandum stated, it is felt there is the need for some educational efforts as well as enforcement of existing Ordinances, especially leash requirements. Mr. Grubb advised that a member of the environmental health staff was to set up a meeting with the Assistant City Solicitor to draft language for an amendment to the Ordinance. Focusing on the five year statistical analysis that was conducted, Mr. Grubb informed the assembly there were 716 animal bites. Explaining that while some breeds of dogs bite more often than others they are still rather low in overall percentages, Mr. Grubb exemplified that in ordinances of other communities the threshold was much higher in terms of percentages of dog bites for specific breeds. Consequently, Mr. Grubb commented it is felt that a case by case basis would be preferable for the City's Ordinance. Mr. Grubb continued on to explain that parameters could be established by which residents who feel that a particular animal is a danger in a neighborhood can petition the City to have that animal designated a dangerous animal. Mr. Grubb informed the Members that the Administration is looking closely at the City of Allentown's existing Ordinance. Mr. Grubb noted that the situation involving a particular animal would be reviewed by the Director of Community and Economic Development and the Police Commissioner or their designees. Based on their decisions, that animal would be declared a dangerous animal. As a result, the residence of the dangerous animal would have to be signed as having a dangerous animal at the residence. If the dangerous animal were taken out in public it would have to be on a short leash of possibly three to four feet, and have a muzzle. In addition, there would be stiff penalties for people who do not abide by the restrictions pertaining to their dangerous animal. Mr. Grubb advised that the City is trying to place not only the responsibility on the owner as much as possible but also the accountability. By approaching an amendment to the Ordinance in that fashion, Mr. Grubb noted it is believed where animals have become a problem, the City can address it. Adding that a request to have an animal designated a dangerous animal can come from anyone in the community, Mr. Grubb stated based on that input a decision can be made and conditions set in place. Focusing on specific breeds, Mr. Grubb observed that the percentages are surprising in terms of the breeds, and pointed out there is probably a higher bite rate for breeds that are prevalent in the City. Mr. Grubb, pointing out that some existing ordinances are being challenged based on breed specific legislation, explained that is a reason for reviewing problems on a case by case basis. Mr. Grubb stated the language of the amendment will now be drafted to withstand any challenges it might face, to give the City enforcement power, and to protect citizens.

Mayor Delgrosso added another feature of the proposal would be that the owners of the home in which a dangerous animal resides must have some type of insurance to take care of a problem. Mayor Delgrosso, noting that Mr. Grubb, Ms. Klotz, and the Health Bureau under Mr. Hanna's direction have worked very hard on the issue, expressed the goal is to identify an amendment that can address the problem but does not penalize those whose animals are not considered a danger.

7. COMMUNICATIONS

A. Police Commissioner – Reimbursement for Training of Police Officer

The Clerk read a memorandum dated July 3, 2003 from Francis R. Donchez, Jr., Police Commissioner, requesting consideration of a resolution necessary in order for the City to receive reimbursement from the State for 60% of the salary for Officer Richard Hoffman for the 20 weeks he will be attending the Montgomery County Police Academy.

President Schweder noted that authorizing Resolution 11 E is listed on the Agenda.

B. City Solicitor - Revisions to Code Board of Appeals Ordinance

The Clerk read a letter dated July 10, 2003 from Joseph F. Leeson, Jr., City Solicitor, in which it was advised that he did not recommend accepting the two proposed amendments that were accepted and approved by the Administration and Committee Members at the Community Development Committee Meeting on Tuesday, July 1, 2003. The chief Code official is part of the prosecution team together with a representative of the City Solicitor’s Office. A member of the prosecution team cannot serve as a member of the quasi-judicial body (the Board of Appeals) that decides the case. This would be potential grounds for a party to appeal a Board of Appeals decision to the Courts and to seek to have a Board of Appeals ruling overturned for reasons of failure to get a fair hearing in front of an impartial board.

President Schweder noted the correspondence concerns Bill No. 33 that is listed on the Agenda.

Mayor Delgrosso informed Mr. Gregory that a meeting will be scheduled with the appropriate representatives.

Bicycle Riding on Sidewalks

Mrs. Belinski, pointing out that some bicycles are being ridden very recklessly on the sidewalks, advised it was reported to her that a 71 year old elderly man was run into twice by a reckless rider. Mrs. Belinski continued on to report that the other evening on Fourth Street she was nearly knocked over by a reckless bicycle rider. Mrs. Belinski, adding that she has been hearing complaints rather consistently, noted that some of the riders are using the handicapped ramps to accelerate their bicycles. Mrs. Belinski, wondering whether signs could be erected, asked is there anything the City can do about the situation.

Mayor Delgrosso expressed the belief that signs would have to be installed throughout the City. Mayor Delgrosso, communicating it is an educational process, indicated he would ask the Police Commissioner whether or not it is illegal to ride on pavements.

Walter Diefenderfer, Police Captain, acknowledging that bicycles are supposed to have warning devices, advised that some individuals are not obtaining the necessary licenses. Captain Diefenderfer, expressing that he will address the matter with Police Commissioner Francis Donchez upon his return, in addition to the Community Police Officers, commented that programs throughout the City should likely be increased to try to rectify the situation to some degree.

13. COURTESY OF THE FLOOR

Dangerous Dogs

Donna Scrafano, 708 Atlantic Street, inquired about the City's leash law. Ms. Scrafano advised there has been a brief improvement in the situation involving the pit bull in the neighborhood who bit a young boy as she had reported at the June 3, 2003 City Council Meeting. Although that pit bull was euthanized, Ms. Scrafano advised that the owner now has a new dog which is getting lose and ran across the street onto her neighbor's porch, as is the dog from two doors away. Ms. Scrafano continued on to inform the Members it so happens that the breed terrorizing her neighborhood right now is the pit bull. Ms. Scrafano further notified the assembly she was informed by her daughter that yesterday a pit bull came across the street but her daughter was afraid to call the Police because a group of people were standing on the porch. Ms. Scrafano advised that the problems are still occurring. Ms. Scrafano highlighted the fact that her dog is put on a harness when she takes him out even though he is not a danger to anybody.

Leash Law

Mr. Grubb, observing the misconception has developed that the City does not have a leash law, confirmed the City does have a leash law that was instituted last year when the Ordinance was amended. Consequently, Mr. Grubb affirmed that any dog should be leashed and if they are not the Police should be contacted in order for enforcement to take place.

Mayor Delgrosso added it is being proposed that a shorter leash be required if an animal is considered dangerous.

Dangerous Dogs

William Scheirer, 1890 Eaton Avenue, expressing the opinion that it could be problematic if a citizen were allowed to raised a complaint in order to have a particular animal labeled as a dangerous animal, observed that due process could be one of the problems since one neighbor could do so to annoy another neighbor. Mr. Scheirer, commenting he feels it might be better to let the Police do it, added it ties into the point system that he proposed at a previous City Council Meeting, and stated there has to be an ultimate penalty.

Water Loss

Mr. Scheirer, stating there is a disconcerting number of minor mistakes in the Executive Summary that was prepared by ADS Environmental Services on the issue of unaccounted for water, remarked one would think greater care would be taken with the Executive Summary and it does not reflect well on the character of the work. Mr. Scheirer, noting it was reported in the Summary that the meter at Howertown east was pronounced accurate because it was only 1.6% off, pointed out that the result was put aside and was not included in the summary table. Mr. Scheirer said in supposing the consultant's measurement was precisely accurate then there was some of the unaccounted for water. He continued on to say it was larger than any of the other things that were in the summary report. Mr. Scheirer, stating this was also done with the wholesale meters, questioned why these things should be set aside. Mr. Scheirer felt it is beginning to look like the answer to the syndrome might be "a little bit of this and a little bit of that".

Dave Sanders, 69 E. Goepp Street, stressed that authorization was given for the consultants to survey 100% of the City of Bethlehem to study the problem of unaccounted for water. Mr. Sanders stressed that, as a businessman, if he spent $270,000 for a survey of 100% but instead got a survey of only 10% "they wouldn't get ten cents from me". Mr. Sanders remarked that he thinks the taxpayers were shortchanged. With reference to Mr. Donchez's remarks, Mr. Sanders noted it has been stated that the City has been losing water for forty years at the rate of three million gallons and 10% is being targeted in Lower Saucon Township. Mr. Sanders observed that is a relatively new area and questioned why the older areas of the City would not be studied. Mr. Sanders, expressing his agreement with President Schweder's idea of contacting neighboring communities about the matter, said perhaps Wendell Sherman, former Director of Public Works, or other former long-time City employees could also be contacted. Mr. Sanders felt that the $30,000 should be used elsewhere rather than given to the current consultant.

Route 412 Improvements

Dean Bruch, 625 Hawthorne Road, commenting that the Route 412 improvements remind him of the Blue Route to Chester, Pennsylvania, suggested that a park and ride program could be established to bring visitors into the City. In addition, Mr. Bruch suggested that a scenic ride could be established for which a fee could be charged.

Fire Union Contract

Mr. Bruch, stressing it is the public who pays for everything including the proposed 4% increase in the Fire Union contract, expressed that the people who have worked hard all their lives are being forgotten. Mr. Bruch asserted something has to be done to require financial accountability, and to use the taxpayers money prudently.
