City of Centerville Council Meeting Minutes April 28, 2021 other than Friday due to residents potentially being out of town for the weekends and unable to place their cans back near their homes which makes their homes an easier mark for potential burglary. He stated that he had spoken with the contractor (Republic Services) and they stated that they would entertain a change if desired. Consensus of the Council was that if the City had received numerous requests to modify they would consider, that if fees were to be increased due to a pickup day modification they would not consider and for 20 + years the collection day has remained on Fridays. Mayor Love stated that Centerville is a small town where neighbors should and could assist each other with placing empty containers near homes for one another once collection has been completed if they were asked or if they notice the homeowner is not home. 3. Placemaking Administrator Statz stated that he place the item on the Work Session Agenda for discussion as the Economic Development Authority desires input as to their roll (funding for beautification, making Centerville a destination, welcome monument, etc.) He stated he was unsure as to ideas that have been discussed as to whether EDA should be working in this area, working with other Committee/CommissionÓs in this area or only working on business retention, marketing, etc. Discussion ensued regarding EDAÓs roll in placemaking, funding, marketing, branding, working with the Parks & Recreation Committee, business retention and bringing in new businesses. Administrator Statz was directed to provide Council with a list and prioritize items and funding for Council consideration at a future date. 4. 2020 Year-End Financials (Unaudited) Administrator Statz reviewed the 2020 Year-End Financials (Unaudited) with Council.
