party in his honor.

Trustee Tosto, Chairman of the Capital Improvements Committee, reported
that the Committee's Agenda item, Disposition of Wells, will be removed
after the next fiscal year. There are three remaining wells to be
abandoned, one of which may be sold. This project has been delayed due to
a change in the governing agency regulating the abandonment of wells.
The Village President reported that the O'Hare Advisory Committee will
meet in September.
Trustee Bosslet, member of the Community Service Board, reported that the
Board has appointed a committee to review the applications that have been
received for membership.
President Zettek reported that the Suburban O'Hare Commission will be
meeting shortly to establish a posture with regard to noise mitigation for
the "150 Study" in preparation for certain members of the Suburban O'Hare
Commission and other suburban representatives when they meet with the
O'Hare Advisory Committee.
Trustee Tosto, member of the Northwest Municipal Conference Technical
Transportation Planning Group, reported that the next meeting will be held
on September 11, 1991.
The Village Manager reported that there were no results from the meeting
he attended with J.U.L. I .E. Further meetings will be held since there is
still a great reluctance on the part of J.U.L. I.E. to modify their
agreement to deal with the liability issues that have been identified by
the Illinois Municipal League and by the Northwest Municipal Conference as
well as a host of cities.
They are still searching for a way for communities to participate in the
underground utility locating service activity without exposing themselves
to substantial liability and without exposing the provider of that service
to undue liability either.
President Zettek presented a letter of request from the Rotary Club to
put up flea _s�/bannnerrss that would hang from the two entrances to the
festiva area—parking a parking lot on Arlington Heights Road and on Elk Grove
Boulevard.
- 3 - 8-13-91
The consensus of the Board was to grant the request.
The President stated that he also received a telephone call from the
Rotary Club requesting some appropriate police control for the entrance to
Lions Park on Elk Grove Boulevard.
The Police Chief responded that his department is already working on that
situation with a member of the Rotary Club.
The President presented an ordinance which pertains to settlement of
miscellaneous offenses.
It was moved by Trustee Chernick and seconded by Trustee Tosto that the
Board waive the first reading rule of an ordinance as it pertains to
amending the Municipal Code, Settlement of Miscellaneous Offenses. The
motion was voted upon by acclamation; whereupon the President declared the
motion carried.
It was moved by Trustee Chernick and seconded by Trustee Tosto that the
Board adopt Ordinance No. 2181 entitled, "AN ORDINANCE AMENDING ARTICLE I,
SETTLEMENT OF MISCELLANEOUS OFFENSES - POLICE DEPARTMENT, OF THE
MUNICIPAL CODE OF THE VILLAGE OF ELK GROVE VILLAGE". The motion was voted
upon by general consent to the previous vote: AYE: Trustees Czarnik,
Tosto, Bosslet, Chernick; NAY: none; ABSENT: Gallitano, Petri ; whereupon
the President declared the motion carried.
The Village Manager reported on the following:
1. The street resurfacing program began on August 12,
1991. The contractor will be moving quite rapidly
based on a scheduling program that he has developed.
The streets will be opened shortly after they have
been paved so there will be no need for persons to
park away from their homes overnight.
2. Staff has been looking at the delinquent tax records.
A report on those in Elk Grove Township has been
distributed recently. The Schaumburg Township list
has now been reviewed and the conclusion remains the
same.
There are no properties that are tax delinquent and
subject to tax sales that would be of interest to the
Village.
There were 18 properties in Elk Grove Township and 6
parcels in Schaumburg Township area identified for tax
sales. Some of those properties will be monitored
because the Village has at stake certain zoning
ordinances and certain site plan approval requirements
that must be maintained.
3. There will be an inauguration ceremony of the "911
Telephone System" at Northwest Central Dispatch Center
on Davis Street in Arlington Heights on August 19,
1991 at 11:30 a.m.
In addition to the 4 original communities, Arlington
Heights, Buffalo Grove, Mount Prospect and Elk Grove
Village in the "911" network there are now the
additional communities of Prospect Heights and the
Village of Palatine that are participating in the
dispatching of the police, fire and ambulance calls.
On or about the 19th of August, the Village will be
posting signs throughout the Village reminding persons
driving into the Village and who are residents of the
Village to call "911" in the event they may have an
emergency for fire, police or ambulance service.
(The Village Manager gave a brief description of the
workings of the "911" system. )
- 4 - 8-13-91
4. The Elk Grove Village Health Department, in concert
with the Village of Schaumburg Health Department,
Alexian Brothers Medical Center, and the Cook County
Department of Public Health, will be conducting
monthly immunization clinics this year.
The first clinic will be held on August 28, 1991.
Those clinics will be conducted in the Elk Grove
Village Municipal Building in the former court room.
The clinics will be held on the 4th Wednesday of each
month. A single location and a constant date should
make it possible for Village residents to take
advantage of this program.
One of the changes that is being proposed and pursued
throughout the area, to the clinics, is to charge a
nominal fee for the shots, in those instances where
those parents are in a position to pay for the shots.
The Board of Health is looking at a $2.00 fee for this
service.
If there are parties that are not able to handle that
charge, other arrangements will be made and the shots
will be provided. If there are no objections to the
nominal charge we will proceed with the necessary
publicity and advertisements.
5. Staff was looking at the cost to install street lights
in conjunction with the improvements to be made to
Biesterfield Road. We find that the cost to do that
is not covered by the Federal Aid to Urban system and
the price tag would be about $300,000.00. The Village
is exploring the possibility of funding from Cook
County since Arlington Heights Road is on the County
Highway System.
Staff will also be talking to the County about sharing
the cost from the traffic signal modifications and
up-grading at Arlington Heights Road and Biesterfield.
6. There will be a public hearing and presentation of the
Biesterfield Road project on August 20, 1991 which
will be conducted by the consultants and Village Staff.
7. The Village is trying to make arrangements with the
Illinois Toll Highway Authority to appear at a 7:00
p.m. time period prior to a regular Village Board
meeting for the purpose of briefing the Village Board
about the plans they have in store for modifications
to the Northwest Tollway.
The Toll Highway Authority is talking about a number
of improvements along the tollway system and in
particular along the Northwest Tollway, which is at
the North end of the Village.
The Manager will try to confirm a meeting date for the
27th of August, 1991.
At this time, 8:58 p.m. , the President asked if anyone in the audience
wished to address the Village Board.
Mr. John Meyers, 747 Leicester Road, asked the Board to review or
investigate the Village Policy on the use of construction water in the
Village.
Discussion followed regarding the use of meters on hydrants and the use of
water tank trucks; the amount of a deposit that would be required for a
meter, and if the deposit should cover the cost of replacing a hydrant
should it be damaged by the contractor.
- 5 - 8-13-91
The Village Engineer explained the cost for construction water on new
construction and water used for landscaping in new construction areas.
The consensus of the Board was to review the Village policy on use of
water by contractors.
At this time, 9:24 p.m. , the meeting continued with all of the Board
members present as noted at the beginning of the meeting.
The Village Manager requested the Board to authorize the awarding of a
contract to Clauss Fuels Inc. , of Palatine, Illinois the lowest
responsive and responsible bidder to furnish and deliver the Village
requirements for fuel effective August 14, 1991 through August 31, 1992 at
their posted price on the day of delivery, plus cartage.

Board award a contract to Clauss Fuels Inc. , Palatine to furnish and
deliver Village requirements for fuel effective August 14, 1991 through
August 31, 1992 at their posted price on the day of delivery, plus cartage
not to exceed $160,000. The motion was voted upon by general consent to
the previous vote; AYE: Trustees Czarnik, Tosto, Bosslet, Chernick; NAY:
none; ABSENT: Gallitano, Petri ; whereupon the President declared the
motion carried.
It was moved by Trustee Bosslet and seconded by Trustee Czarnik that the

Certificate of Authority to Jon's Suburban Taxi Company to operate 5
taxicabs in accordance with Village ordinance. The President directed the

following answered AYE: Trustees Tosto, Bosslet, Chernick, Czarnik; NAY:
none; ABSENT: Gallitano, Petri ; whereupon the President declared the
motion carried.
It was moved by Trustee Bosslet and seconded by Trustee Czarnik that the
Board direct the Village Attorney to prepare an ordinance which would
amend the Certificate of Authority granted to American Taxi to allow for
the merger of American Taxi with Elk Grove Taxi and to operate 28 taxicabs
and to allow them to do business in the interim before a new Taxicab
Ordinance is adopted. The motion was voted upon by general consent to the
previous vote; AYE: Trustees Tosto, Bosslet, Chernick, Czarnik; AYE: none;
ABSENT: Gallitano, Petri ; whereupon the President declared the motion
