President Zettek reported that there will be a meeting of the O' Hare Advisory Committee on November 14, 1990 at 7:00 p.m. at the Park Ridge Library. The Village Manager reported that the Screening Committee for an Economic Development Employee will be submitting a recommendation later this week. President Zettek reported that the City of Chicago has noted that there is a House Bill being considered by Congress, which will deny the ability of local authorities to control noise and air pollution in airports. The Bill would also deny the ability of anyone who felt grieved as a result of that noise and/or air pollution to seek remedy in the local court. A case would have to go to the Federal Court in Washington, D. C. since the Bill suggests that the jurisdiction of all airports throughout the United States to be under the control of the Federal Government and the FAA. The Suburban O' Hare Commission has strenuous objections to this Bill and had intense dialogue with the City of Chicago, since Chicago, it would appear is willing to agree with the House Bill as presented. Part and parcel of this same Bill is a PFC charge, this is a passenger charge, which is the case of Chicago, some $3.00 per ticket would be received which could be used to support another regional airport in the Calumet area. This would give Chicago a decided advantage over the other four or five airport sites that are being considered do to the fact that Chicago could say that they have the income to support the airport, which the other communities would not have available. Trustee Bosslet, Chairman of the Recycling Committee, reported: 1. The Committee would like to send out a letter prepared by Staff to the people who wished to use the Dierking Terrace property. (No objections to the letter were offered. ) 2. The Health Department has prepared a brochure, intended for the Multi-family Recycling Program that will begin shortly. The brochure is of a generic nature due to the fact that the thirteen multi-family complexes in the Village are serviced by different scavengers, each with their own requirements. 3. There will be a Recycling Committee meeting in approxi- mately 3 weeks. Trustee Bosslet discussed the use of recycled paper in the Village Hall with the Village Manager and Purchasing Agent. Trustee Chernick requested that the entire Board receive a copy of the Multi-family Recycling Brochure. Trustee Gallitano, Board Member of the Illinois International Convention Center, reported on the following: 1. Decca has acted on the Grant application, however, they require some points of clarification by November 15, 1990. The Convention Board feels these items to be insignificant and will have - 3 - 10-23-90 no problem responding. 2. The program staff from Decca has approved, in form, the Intergovernmental Agreement that will be signed by the five participating municipalities. (The) Bond Counsel and the Village Attorneys have• also reviewed the form of the Agreement. It was moved by Trustee Gallitano and seconded by Trustee Czarnik that the Board adopt Resolution No. 69-90 entitled, "A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE VILLAGE PRESIDENT AND VILLAGE CLERK TO EXECUTE AN AGREEMENT FOR FUNDING AND DEVELOPMENT OF THE ILLINOIS INTERNATIONAL CONVENTION CENTER".

Authorization is requested for a half-page ad at a cost of $1,265.00. Ads are placed in other periodicals which produce inquiries about industrial and commercial facilities and space in the community, however, the circulation of this particular publication is growing by geometric proportions which make it an ideal source to urge location in Elk Grove Village. It was moved by Trustee Chernick and seconded by Trustee Czarnik that the Board authorize placing a half-page advertisement in the Greater Woodfield Publication at a cost of $1,265.00. The President directed the Clerk to call the roll on the motion and upon the roll being called the following answered AYE: Trustees Bosslet, Chernick, Czarnik, Gallitano, Petri ; NAY: none; ABSENT: Tosto; whereupon the President declared the motion carried.

At this time, 9:07 p.m. , Mr. Walter Haas, 1023 Lincoln, Itasca Meadow Farms, addressed the Board regarding the annexation of the IDOT property and a letter that he wrote to IDOT with copies to the Elk Grove Village Board. - 4 - 10-23-90 President Zettek stated that whether or not the Village would annex the IDOT site, it would be there and it would be there under its present structure. The only reason that the Village entered into an agreement to annex that site was because the State wanted to connect to Village water and sewer. It has been a long standing policy of the Village that water and sewer will not be extended to anyone outside the Village boundaries. The changes to the IDOT site that are of concern to the residents of Itasca Meadows would have happened regardless of the Village's annexation of that property. The President stated that with a limited review of the letter, that was copied to the Board, the Village Engineer has assured the Board that the site does not lie in the flood plain and the State has engineered and constructed a project which exceeds all local storm water requirements and reduces the potential of downstream flooding. Mr. Haas referred to comments made by the Chairman of the Plan Commission during the public hearings on this property that there was no building in the flood plain. Mr. Haas also made reference to the Semar Property being within the same flood plain as the IDOT property and the restrictions that were placed on that development. President Zettek reiterated that the property is not in a floodway and the Village feels that what has been done at IDOT, rather than detract from, enhances the ability to move storm water off the property. Mr. Churin also addressed the Board regarding where the flow-off of water from the IDOT property ends up. The Village Engineer responded by explaining the flow of the water, which eventually ends up in Salt Creek. It was moved by Trustee Czarnik and seconded by Trustee Gallitano that the meeting be adjourned. The motion was voted upon by acclamation; whereupon the President declared the motion carried and the meeting adjourned at 9:20 p.m. Patricia S. Smith Village Clerk Charles J. Zettek Village President - 5 - 10-23-90
