The Village of Buffalo Grove has indicated that they will not extend their

optics installation.

ago.
Buffalo Grove turned down the offer in view of the wishes of the other 4
participating towns with the concern that if they keep offering 5 years to
install fiber optics the rest of the communities will lose any bargaining
power with anything they may want to do. It would be better to wait until
1996 and then negotiate as a 4 town consortium.

on Nerge Road.

Wednesday, September 11 , 1991 at 6:00 p.m. The Board will be
considering a recommendation from the Executive Committee to
proceed with a multi-tiered phasing program to carry the Solid
Waste Agency project into different levels of completion;
the re-funding of certain obligations that are presently

acquisition of construction of a transfer station; and

Balefill Project.
The Board of Directors has received the report from the Executive
Committee which is an outline of major policy issues. The thrust
of the proposal is to incorporate in one final project use

would follow a logical sequence and to provide means for the Board

of Directors under certain economic conditions to issue Bonds for
certain succeeding phases of the project.

as well as give the Board of Directors of the Agency reasonable
latitude to carry out the project pursuant to a very concrete set
of plans, both for financing purposes and for the construction of
appropriate facilities that will make the Solid Waste Agency an
operating entity.
