RESOLUTION APPROVING CLASS 6b DESIGNATION UNDER COOK
COUNTY REAL PROPERTY ASSESSMENT CLASSIFICATION
ORDINANCE OF OCTOBER 1, 1984 FOR NEW CONS ION AT
700 TOUHY AVENUE" .
The President directed the Clerk to call the roll on the motion to adopt
the Consent Agenda items, "A, B, C, D, E, G, H, I , J, K, L, and M", and
upon the roll being called the following answered AYE: Trustees Chernick,
Gallitano, Hauser, Petri , Bosslet; NAY: none; ABSENT: Tosto; whereupon the
President declared the motion carried.
Trustee Gallitano questioned the Lease Agreement between Northwest Central
Dispatch and the Village of Arlington Heights, stating that by the terms
of the Agreement at the end of 10 years Elk Grove Village will have paid
for one-fourth of the building, however the Village will have zero
property interest in that building.
Trustee Gallitano also questioned what the rental fees for the next 10
years would be going toward, other than insurance and maintenance. The
Village of Arlington Heights does not have any responsibility toward that
property.
The Village Manager responded that the Village does not aquire any equity
in the building. The Agreement is just a means of funding a facility that
is essential for the Central Dispatch System and the forthcoming "911"
system. The Village of Arlington Heights is using its bonding capacity
for the benefit of the Central Dispatch System and the four communities
that participate in the Northwest Central Dispatch System. The annual
- 3 - 5-9-89
rentals for years 11 though 20, while they are escalating, the bottom line
is that it is a very fair rental proposal to be considered. It is very
much in the interest of the 4 communities to be able to lock in the cost
of accommodations for a period of 20 years, with the option to renew after
that period of time for another 10 years, at a rate to be negotiated at
that time.
What this sum represents is compensation to the Village of Arlington
Heights for the use of their bonding authority, for the use of their
property for improvements which will be placed on this property and their
willingness in providing adequate space for the emergency dispatching
operation.
Discussion followed regarding the value of the property and what
consideration was given to the idea of Northwest Central Dispatch (NWCD)
purchasing the land from the Village of Arlington Heights and putting up
their own building. The Village Manager noted that the Village of
Arlington Heights will not sell the property to the agency.
Trustees Gallitano and Hauser voiced their objections to the Lease
Agreement regarding the fact that the building will belong to the Village
of Arlington Heights and not shared among the 4 communties which comprise
NWCDS and the amount of the lease after the construction costs for the
building have been met.
It was moved by Trustee Chernick and seconded by Trustee Petri that the
Board approve the Lease Agreement between Northwest Central Dispatch
System and the Village of Ar in tonHei is or the construction and
occupancy o a new building to ouse NWCDS, including the terms,
maintenance and duration of the Lease and options to extend said Lease,
and to authorize the Village Manager to approve the Lease when it is acted
on by the Board of Directors of NWCDS. The President directed the Clerk
to call the roll on the motion and upon the roll being called the
following answered AYE: Trustees Petri , Bosslet, Chernick; NAY: Gallitano,
Hauser; ABSENT: Tosto; whereupon the President declared the motion carried.
At this time, 9:56 p.m. , the President asked if anyone in the audience
wished to address the Board. There being no response, the meeting
continued.
It was moved by Trustee Chernick and seconded by Trustee Petri that the
Board grant the request from the Elk Grove Park District to waive the
fees in the amount of $835.00 for vehicle licenses for twenty-nine

motion and upon the roll being called the following answered AYE: Trustees

tion Authority and how the gas tax increase

4. The Illinois Department of Transportation is looking
at the water allocation that were granted back in the

reduction in their allocation some are facing
potential for an increase. The Village of Elk Grove
is right on target and well within the standards.

The Village Manager presented a request to waive the bidding requirement
to purchase forms for water bills and to award a purchase contract to

It was moved by Trustee Chernick and seconded by Trustee Bosslet that the

6,395.25. The motion was voted upon by general consent to the previous
- 6 - 5-9-89
vote: AYE: Trustees Gallitano, Hauser, Petri , Bosslet, Chernick; NAY:
none; ABSENT: Tosto; whereupon the President declared the motion carried.
The Village Manager requested the Board to consider directing the Village
Attorney to prepare an ordinance which would reduce the closing hours of
Class "A" and "AA" Liquor Licenses, effective September 1, 1989. This
request is prompted by a survey prepared by the Police Department which,
indicates that the Village by comparison to surrounding communities,
stands out with late closing hours.
It is therefore recommended, that the hours be reduced during the week
from 2:00 a.m. to 1:00 a.m. and on the week-ends from 3:00 a.m. to, at
least, 2:00 a.m. and on the week-ends from 5:00 a.m. to, at least, 3:00
a.m.
There is also some consideration to putting all of the Class "A" and "AA"
Liquor Licenses on the same hours of 1:00 a.m. during the week and 2:00
a.m. for week-ends.
After looking at the activities surrounding some of the license holders it
was found that closing hours, which are in force at the present time,
could be contributing to the police activity that is necessary at some
locations. Even without the police activity the Village does standout from
the surrounding communities with much later closing hours.
Trustee Chernick requested that this item be placed on the Agenda for the
Committee-of-the-Whole meeting on Tuesday, May 15, 1989. No objections
were offered.
The Village Manager requested that the Board consider authorizing the
Village Manager to send a letter to the PACE Transportation Board
concurring with its plan to eliminate Route 405 and replace parts of it
with Route 416 bus service. PACE has monitored the Route 405 and found
that the ridership is not sufficient to pay the cost of operation.
The consensus of the Board was to permit the Village Manager to write the
letter to PACE as requested.
The Village Manager presented an ordinance which would authorize the
Village to sell a single family house at 1703 W. Biesterfield Road.
It was moved by Trustee Chernick and seconded by Trustee Petri that the
Board waive the first reading rule of an ordinance as it pertains to the
sale of property at 1703 W. Biesterfield Road. The motion was voted upon
by acclamation; whereupon the President declared the motion carried.
It was moved by Trustee Chernick and seconded by Trustee Petri that the
Board adopt Ordinance No. 2040 entitled, "AN ORDINANCE AUTHORIZING THE
VILLAGE PRESIDENT AND VILLAGE CLERK TO EXECUTE A REAL ESTATE SALE
CONTRACT BETWEEN THE VILLAGE OF ELK GROVE VILLAGE AND DAVID AND CINDY
HOFFMAN". The motion was voted upon by general consent to the previous
vote: AYE: Trustees Gallitano, Hauser, Petri , Bosslet, Chernick; NAY:
none; ABSENT: Tosto; whereupon the President declared the motion carried.
It was moved by Trustee Bosslet and seconded by Trustee Chernick that the
Board meet in Executive Session following tonight's Board meeting for the
purpose of discussing personnel . The motion was voted upon by general
consent to the previous vote: AYE: Trustees Gallitano, Hauser, Petri ,
Bosslet, Chernick; NAY: none; ABSENT: Tosto; whereupon the President
declared the motion carried.
It was moved by Trustee Bosslet 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
10:34 p.m.
