MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br />Monday, April 28,2003 <br />7:00 o*clock p.m. <br />MA YOR/CITY COUNCIL REPORT, Continued <br />Murphy suggested that stafT come prepared with a summary of what the City has done to answer <br />Mr. Miller’s concerns. <br />Sansevere asked two questions, first, how the Council would choose to honor athletics, and <br />second, what names would be given to the Council scholarships. <br />Moorse stated that he had called the school to inquire how they honor academics versus athletics <br />and was told that academics were only honored at the end of the school year. <br />White asked what criteria had been established for the scholarship. <br />Sansevere indicated that the only requirements had been that the student be an Orono resident <br />who performed community/public service, and/or had plans to further their education in public <br />service. <br />Murphy questioned whether the City Council would be out of line honoring conference <br />champions or individuals during the course of the year, if the school only honors them at the end <br />of the year. <br />Sansevere believed honoring achievements could foster community spirit and good relationships <br />between the City and Schools. <br />Moorse suggested adding recognition for achievement as part of the Mayor and Council report. <br />He questioned why the schools didn’t do more to honor its own, whereas the City wishes to do <br />so. <br />Murphy moved, Sansevere seconded, to have the Mayor attend a school assembl>/pep fest <br />and award a framed proclamation which honors achievement during the course of the <br />year. VOTE: Ayes 4, Nays 1, Mayor Peterson dissenting. <br />Murphy moved, Sansevere seconded, to reconsider the motion.
