When the site was inspected last fall , there was no
evidence of brush, timbers, trees or landscaping kinds
of material which are presently on that site.

have to be consulted as to whether or not the Village
has the ability to deal with that problem.

dealing with the re-use of the existing library
building. There is rio foreseeable use of the building
by any of the operating departments. The Health
Department did indicate a desire to use some of the
space for blood pressure testing, checking of diabetes,
1- 6 and perhaps civing flu shots.
Gther uses have been submitted by four outside
agencies; therefore, it is up to the Village Board to
determine ,ghat tl.ey might wish to do with the building
once the library relocates to the new facility.

appraisal was discussed. )

existing library building. The motion failed for the lack of a second.

of the Whole meeting on March 20, 1990. The consensus of the Board was to
begin the meeting at 6:00 p.m.

from the property east of Salt Creek as to cost factor and whether or not
the Village should incur the expense of that project; the number of
communities that can participate in the Central Dispatch System without
running out of space and/or hardware; the cost to the municipalities being
reduced as more communities are added to the Central Dispatch System.
The Village President and the Village Manager discussed the possible need
for additional personnel in the Community Development Department for
housing inspections of rental property.
The Village President informed the Board that he received a letter from
the sculptor Franz Volz regarding his work on a miniature of the "Village
Elk" which will be completed shortly and placed on display in the atrium.
