APPROVAL OF MINUTES OF JANUARY 24, 2023 - Motion to approve the Minutes of the Regular Village Board Meeting held on January 24, 2023 as submitted and dispense with the reading. Moved by Trustee Lissner Seconded by Trustee Feichter The motion was voted upon by acclamation. MOTION CARRIED 4. MAYOR & BOARD OF TRUSTEES' REPORT Mayor Johnson — An article came out last week in one of the local papers that gave a "List of Sex Offenders" in the area. They inappropriately listed Elk Grove Village as having 49 Sex Offenders. Sex Offenders are required to register and the correct number for Elk Grove Village is 10. There was a nice turnout at the February 4 Coffee with the Board. We thank everyone that attended. The Cemetery was mentioned at the last meeting. We are not looking to change the ownership. The owner does a great job with the cemetery. We are actually looking to annex the cemetery into Elk Grove Village. The Journal had a nice article in the paper. On February 28, we will announce an event for our 5t" Anniversary of the Elk Grove Cares Program. The program has continued to operate with the help of grants. The vacancy rate for the Business Park in 2010 was 12.5% and in 2022 the rate is all the way down to 1.5%. This is an all-time record low vacancy rate for Elk Grove Village. This Thursday at 2:00 p.m. there will be a public hearing for Luv 2 Smoke Smoke Shop here in Elk Grove Village. Trustee Schmidt — I attended two funerals and wakes since the last meeting. Former Trustee Petri's wife Patti Petri, and Former Trustee Nancy Czarnik. I gave a short speech on Friday. Trustee Prochno — I also attended the services for Patti Petri and Nancy Czarnik. Nancy will definitely be missed. She has been an integral part of the community. The Czarnik / Heffern Scholarship Program will continue at Elk Grove Village. There will be ten (10) $1,000 scholarships this year. The deadline is May 5, 2023. Applications are available at Czarnikgolf.com, the Elk Grove Village website and the high school counselor offices. The next winter Farmers Market at Christus Victor Church will be on Saturday, February 18, from 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Please remember to shovel your sidewalks. Some of the residents did not do so well with shoveling after the last snowfall. The sidewalks became very icy and dangerous for people to walk on. I hope that everyone does better with the next snowstorm. Trustee Lissner — Attended the DARE Graduation for 14 students that graduated at Queen of the Rosary school. Page 1 of 4 Officer Ted Malek and Melissa Chirchirillo did an excellent job at the Neighborhood Watch Meeting on Thursday, January 26. It was very informative. Trustee Feichter — I also attended the funeral for Nancy Czarnik. The Community Character Coalition gave me the honor of doing a eulogy for Nancy Czarnik at our last meeting. The Community Character Coalition is giving away three (3) $2,000 scholarships this year. Applications are available on the ccceg.org website or in school counselor's office. The deadline is April 11 at 3:00 p.m. The scholarships will be awarded at the May 9 Village Board Meeting. Trustee Franke — I was not able to spend time with Nancy's family because I was out of town. Nancy was the first person that interviewed me before I became a trustee. We had a long standing relationship and I am really going to miss her. Condolences to the Czarnik Family. Trustee Miller — I was close to Frank Czarnik and Trustee Nancy Czarnik through the years. When I was appointed to take Nancy's position, I said at that time that I may never be able to fill her shoes but I will fill her vacancy. I will continue to do my best to represent her. My heart goes out to her family. I would like to give a shout -out to Officer Ted Malek for coordinating the DARE program. There are so many stressors these days such as bullying and cyberbullying and it is hard for the parents as well. It was nice to see the parents there supporting their children. The children know that they can talk to their parents or Officer Malek if they have any issues. 5.
