Council President Michael Opinker presided. City Clerk Robert J. Golec facilitated. PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE was recited by all. ROLL CALL PRESENT: Markovich, Spitale, Venecz, Kalwinski, Uylaki, Higgs, Emerson, Hinojosa, Opinker ABSENT: None TOTAL: 9 PRESENTATION BY THE HONORABLE CONGRESSMAN PETER J. VISCLOSKY Congressman Visclosky - President, thank you very much and I do want to thank all of the members of the council, our clerk is here, chief executive officer is here, for the opportunity to briefly address you or relative to the expansion of the South Shore in Northwest Indiana. My preference in the time we have is also to address any questions you may have, any concerns that you may have. I do appreciate the invitation but as may have been communicated to the council office, I’m Vice Chair of the Congressional Steel Caucus, we have a hearing in Washington tomorrow morning at 8 a.m. and United Airlines waits for no one. So I will, unfortunately, have to depart at 7 p.m. I would begin simply by saying as a life long resident of Northwest Indiana, I look across our area and recognize, with the exception of our weather on occasion, there’s no place I’d rather live in the United States. We make more steel in two counties than any state in the nation. We have the largest inland oil refinery in the United States of America.

Michael Opinker - The last Council Meeting on the 25th of July, I didn’t realize that was going to be my last Council Meeting as Council President. Being Councilman for 6 plus years has been a great experience for myself and thanking all of you folks for the trust that you put in me as being President for the last four and half years. It’s been a learning experience. There was a lot of times that we all didn’t agree on certain things but then there was a lot of times, you know, we battled for what’s right. Like I says, I respect everybody’s decision in what we’ve concluded in our decisions as Council President and passing of hundreds of ordinances and resolutions. First of all I’d like to thank my constituents. If it wasn’t for all my constituents in the 5th District I wouldn’t have had that opportunity to act as their Councilman in the 5th. My Precinct Committee people and all of you, starting with Mayor McDermott.
