4. MAYOR & BOARD OF TRUSTEES' REPORT —
MUor Johnson — The Elk Grove Business Park ranked the second year in a row as the Best
Business Park in America. No other town has had this recognition for two years in a row.
I met with Senator Seth Lewis and Representative Jennifer Sanilitro and things are moving forward.
We are looking forward to working with them.
On June 29, ESPN was at Real Time Sports and taped a show about Elk Grove Village with the
Racecar.
On July 1 & 2 was the Chicago Nascar race. Great job to Chicago coordinating the race and
dealing with the wet pavement on the Nascar streets. Next year we are doing the race again.
The Farmers Market on July 29 will have a booth with Police Officers and the Mayor may stop by.
On July 4, we had KC & the Sunshine Band for the Mid -Summer Classics Concert Series and it
was the biggest crowd so far for the concert series. Great job to Police, Fire and Public Works for
all their work.
RotaryFest is starting and All American Rejects will be playing on Thursday, July 20. At 3:00 is
the countdown to place your chairs out and there should be a very large crowd again.
We had a Parade meeting on July 10. The Parade this year is on September 16.
On July 11, the Spinners Concert had a great crowd.
On July 16, the Play, Picnic, Party in conjunction with the Park District and the Library was a lot of
fun. That had the biggest crowd thus far for this event.
There will be another multipurpose Bike Path going in along Oakton Street to connect with another
bike path.
The next Coffee with the Board will be on Saturday, August 5, from 9-11 AM in Room E.
Thank you to all of the Village Staff. The storm had winds up to 80 mph and thank you to Colby
and the Public Works crew that were out cleaning up after the storm. We will continue to clean up
and pick up.
There were three (3) swearing ins for the Fire Department: Firefighter Alexander Espinosa,
Firefighter Adam Garrison, and Lieutenant Kristofer Schuldt.
A Citizen's Award was announced tonight for Steven Schiro and Israel Escareno who saw a car on
fire on Lively Blvd. and Morse Ave. and the driver was unconscious and strapped in the front seat.
The two men were able to retrieve the driver from the burning car before Police & Fire arrived.

The car became completely engulfed with flames when the Police and Fire arrived and these two
citizens were heroic for their actions. Since they were unable to attend, the Police and Fire
Departments will provide the Citizen Awards in another way.
Trustee Miller — The Community Character Coalition is celebrating their 20-year Anniversary on
Sunday, September 24 from 1-4 PM at the Pavilion for Character Adventures. The event is a family
free event.

year.
Trustee Schmidt — On June 23, I attended a retirement party for the Public Service Officer Kathy
Can. She served for 26 years with the Village. I also attended the Celebration of Life for retired
firefighter Rich Keyworth. Rich had a bigger than life experience in Elk Grove.
Trustee Jarosch — Attended an Interfaith Council meeting. Christus Victor has been a site for the
Public Action to Deliver Shelter (PADS) to individuals for almost 30 years. During COVID, the
PADS program suffered and the sites had to shut down. PADS is trying to restart at Christus Victor
and it is a service organization that you can be a part of by volunteering or helping. If you are
interested, you can reach out to Ann DeBartolo at Christus Victor Lutheran Church or myself. This
program is to help individuals seek shelter and a warm meal from October to April.
