APPROVAL OF MINUTES OF JANUARY 9, 2024 - Motion to approve the Minutes of the Regular Village Board Meeting held on January 9, 2024 as submitted and dispense with the reading. Moved by Trustee Prochno Seconded by Trustee Franke The motion was voted upon by acclamation. MOTION CARRIED 4. MAYOR & BOARD OF TRUSTEES' REPORT Mayor Johnson — We are working to close on a new location for Affordable Senior Housing. Details will be announced soon. There is a demo contract on the Consent Agenda tonight for the area of Elk Grove Boulevard, Tonne, and Love Street where eight (8) single family homes will go in. District 214 will be at a future meeting to talk about a Special Education Program in the works. The Consent Agenda tonight has an agreement contract for Goodyear at Busse and Oakton. There is also an agreement with Wingspan for Higgins and Arlington Heights Road. They hope to start this spring. The open houses were very favorable getting feedback from the community. The residents recommended building a bridge across Arlington Heights Road. The Cook County Forest Preserve Commission has approved the bridge design and location. Images were shown of the bridge. We will work on getting grant money for this project. On December 12, we had a contract on the agenda to purchase 2025 Turner Avenue (Munchies, Mixx Hair Salon, and Turner Liquors) that was approved. It is a new era and strip centers are going out. The Daily Herald had a nice article about two (2) municipalities taking over malls that are empty. The Elk Grove Town Center and Belvedere Shopping Center were all blighted and we tried to help bring business there. Governments need to step up to do that to keep money coming into the community. The Turner Shopping Center needs so much work. An inspector checked into the area and just the parking lot is a $3.5 million project. It was prohibitive to buy it. We want to preserve the businesses, but we want to do what is best for the Village and the community. The property owners reached out to us and asked for help. At 7:51 p.m. Eric Childress shared his memories of Elk Grove with the Mayor and Board of Trustees and made comments about all the recent changes. At 7:58 p.m. John and Tina Jaglowicz, Marie Altobello's daughter and son in law, discussed concerns with the changes to Turner Avenue and how the existing building is in disrepair. Mayor stated that he is aware of the shape of the building and that is why the Village is stepping in to assist the business owners. There is a verbal contract with Marie, Turner Liquors, and the Mixx Hair Salon. Mayor asked if anyone had questions about this project, feel free to reach out to him instead of talking on Facebook.
