President Zettek reported that the Suburban O'Hare Commission will meet on
Wednesday, February 26, 1992 at the Bensenville Village Hall to further
discuss the third airport site (Lake Calumet area) and the expansion of
O'Hare Airport. The contention of the Commission in view of the
Governor' s support of the Lake Calumet site for a third regional airport
is that the Governor had the opportunity to defend and protect the Suburbs
and did not. The Commission does not embrace the Mayor of Chicago because
he is looking to build an airport at Lake Calumet, ignoring the fact that
it should not be built there because of all the environmental problems , as
well as geographical problems. The Commission is very upset with both the
Governor and the Mayor and will continue to do what they can to persuade
the legislators that the Commission' s position is the legitimate and
proper one; to build on a site other than Lake Calumet, a regional site
that will benefit the entire area and not just Chicago, and to have a
permanent ban on runways at O'Hare along with meaningful noise mitigation.
Trustee Tosto, member of the NWMC Technical Transportation Planning Group,
reported that there will be a meeting on Tuesday, March 24, 1992 at the
Conference Headquarters at Oakton Community College.
The President reported that an Ad Hoc Committee consisting of eight or
nine Mayors whose charge is to meet no more than four or five times and to
prepare a position for the Northwest Municipal Conference, whereby, they
might offer some leadership in gaining funds for improvement in public
transportation, be it rail , bus or some other form of transportation.
There are considerable monies that are coming from the Federal Government
and the Northwest Municipal Conference feels it should be doing things
- 3 - 2-25-92
that are more meaningful and more forward and exercising more initiative
to go out and get some of those dollars that are aimed toward improving
public transportation.

The Village Manager informed the Board that Schmerler Ford Company has
acquired the property previously owned by the Hertz Corporation from which
the Hertz Corporation sold cars that were no longer used in the car rental
business. There was a sign on the property used by Hertz that required a
variation to the Village Sign Ordinance. That permit for the variation
was granted only to the Hertz Corporation. With the change in ownership
and the need to advertise, the Schmerler Ford Company has requested a
variation for a sign that they will put in place at that location at
0akton, Higgins and Busse Roads. The sign that they are proposing is
smaller % facial size area and in height than the Hertz Corporation
sign. The Director of Engineering and Community Development recommends
that the sign variation be granted. The sign requested would be 28 feet
high; 96 square feet per face, for a total of 192 square feet. These
dimensions exceed the requirements of the Sign Ordinance, however, it is
smaller than the sign previously granted to the Hertz Corporation.
It was moved by Trustee Chernick and seconded by Trustee Bosslet that the
Board allow Schmerler Ford a sign variation to construct a sign up to
192 square feet. The motion was voted upon by general consent to the
- 4 - 2-25-92
previous vote: AYE: Trustees Chernick, Petri , Tosto, Bosslet; NAY: none;
ABSENT: Czarnik, Gallitano; whereupon the President declared the motion
carried.
It was moved by Trustee Tosto and seconded by Trustee Petri that the
meeting be adjourned. The motion was voted upon by acclamation; whereupon
the President declared the motion carried and the meeting adjourned at
8:48 p.m.
