The Northwest Municipal Conference Solid Waste Agency Board of Directors will meet on November 9, 1988 at 6:00 p.m. The Northwest Municipal Conference will meet at 7:30 p.m. in the Mount Prospect Public Library. The topic on the agenda for the 7:30 p.m. meeting will be the recent efforts to legislate and regulate open space through Township Government. 3. The Village is several weeks out in front of the agreed to schedule for the Consent Decree with the EPA and the Circuit Court of Cook County for the work associated with the Devon O'Hare Treatment Plant, which was taken out of service at the end of June, 1988. The Village Manager reminded the Board of an Executive Session to be held on Tuesday, November 15, 1988 at 7:00 p.m. to discuss personnel . The Village Manager referred to a professional service agreement with an engineering firm for the preparation of plans and specification to install a water main system and a sanitary sewer system in the Devon Corridor. A substantial amount of work has progressed and the water main installation is virtually completed under a contract awarded by the Village. The Village intended to locate the sanitary sewer along the south edge of the Commonwealth Edison right-of-way as it parallels Devon Avenue. The Village has tried on several different levels to secure an easement from the Commonwealth Edison Company to use some of that space, however Commonwealth Edison Company has refused to lease, sell or grant of right-of-way to locate the sewer along that area, based on their long range plans for the use of the easement itself. There are only one or two routes through which the sanitary sewer might be constructed. Those routes entail a substantial amount of negotiation for right-of-way and/or condemnation of property. In either case the amount of time required to negotiate is going to be extensive as well as costly. Since the project of prezoning has been discontinued it is the recommendation to the Board that the Village terminate the service contract which related to the preparation of the sanitary sewer and authorize the final payment for the work completed both in connection with the water main and the sanitary sewer line. There is no need at the present time to complete those engineering plans for location for which the Village cannot secure access. It was moved by Trustee Hauser and seconded by Trustee Tosto that the Board terminate the contract with Crawford, Murh and Till Inc. for engineering services related to the insta ation of a water main system and a sanitary sewer system in the Devon Corridor. The President directed the Clerk to call the roll on t e motion and upon the roll being called the following answered AYE: Trustees Bosslet, Chernick, Gallitano, Hauser, Petri , Tosto; NAY: none; ABSENT: none; whereupon the President declared the motion carried. The Village Attorney stated that the Board previously approved the acquisition of a partial taking of property on Vernon Circle. The ordinance that the Board approved was for $9,350.00 for 500 square feet. When the property was surveyed for the road construction it turned out that the property consisted of 525 square feet and at the applicable square footage the price requires an additional $137.50. The closing has taken place and the money is in escrow, however Board approval is necessary. It was moved by Trustee Hauser and seconded by Trustee Bosslet that the Board authorize theQment of an additional $137.50 for the purchase of property on Vernon Circ—T�motion was voted upon by general consent to the previous vote* Trustees Bosslet, Chernick, Gallitano, Hauser, Petri , Tosto; NAY: none; ABSENT: none; whereupon the President declared the motion carried.
