HomeMy WebLinkAboutVILLAGE BOARD - 09/22/1987 - MINUTES OF THE REGULAR MEETING OF
THE PRESIDENT AND BOARD OF TRUSTEES
OF THE VILLAGE OF ELK GROVE VILLAGE
HELD ON SEPTEMBER 22, 1987
President Charles J. Zettek called the meeting to order at 8:05 p.m. in the
Municipal Building 901 Wellington Avenue, Elk Grove Village and noted for
the record that the following were present: Trustees Joseph T. Bosslet,
Ronald L. Chernick, Dennis J. Gallitano, Edward R. Hauser, James P. Petri ,
Michael A. Tosto. Village Manager, Charles A. Willis; Village Attorney,
George B. Knickerbocker; and Village Clerk, Patricia S. Smith were present
at this meeting.
The Reverend Norman P. Anderson, Pastor of the Elk Grove Baptist Church,
delivered the invocation.
It was moved by Trustee Petri and seconded by Trustee Chernick that the
Board approve the minutes of September 8, 1987 and dispense with the
reading thereof. The motion was voted upon by acclamation; whereupon the
President declared the motion carried.
President Zettek reported that the Village of Schaumburg has approved an
appropriation of 1.5 to 1.7 Million Dollars per year commitment over the
life of a mortgage or a bond to build a convention center. All of the
Mayors in the area and all who are members of the Greater Woodfield Tourism
and Convention Bureau have been asked to attend a special meeting at the
Schaumburg Embassy Suites on Meacham Road this Friday, September 25, 1987
at 8:00 a.m. in order to be brought up to date as to what the contemplated
costs are for the Convention Center. Also to be considered is the
estimated amount of dollars that might be received from the State of
Illinois and what dollars would have to be gathered from all of the
municipalities to support the Convention Center. That amount is rather
ambiguous and perhaps even more important than the dollars, will be how the
communities will be obligated and committed to providing those dollars.
It was moved by Trustee Petri and seconded by Trustee Bosslet that the
Board authorize the disbursement of $674,524.66 in payment of invoices as

The President reported that he has dispersed correspondence to the Board
relating the efforts being made by the economic consultants to get in
motion the Village's ability to establish an incubator building in Elk
Grove Village. There are five communities in the State of Illinois that
will be selected to receive support for an entrepreneurial enterprise.
This means that the Department of Commerce and Community Affairs, through
the State, would support an endeavor of this type in Elk Grove Village.
Support for this project has been received from Senator Virginia
Macdonald, Senator Philip and State Representative Lee Daniels. The
Village should be informed this week if it has been selected to be part of
the "Community Support Program for Entrepreneurial Development".
Trustee Gallitano reported that the Community Service sponsored Elk Grove
Distance Classic Race had approximately 350 runners and there was an
approximate profit of $2,000.00 to $3,000.00 which will be used for
contributions to various service organizations in the community.

members on the Short Range Planning Committee. The next meeting of the
Committee will be held on October 28, 1987, at which time the Committee
will try to formulate, with the cooperation of NIPC, a model ordinance
that would contain zoning and density standards that would encourage mass
transit options. An $80,000.00 Grant has been received from the RTA for
this project and the Committee is now looking for a $40,000.00 matching
fund from the private sector.
Trustee Petri asked if the bus signs that were received by the Village
were being put up in the Industrial park.
The Manager replied that those signs, which can be placed on Village
property, are being installed and the Village is seeking authorization
from the County and State Highway Departments to put signs up on their
rights-of-way.
The President proclaimed the week of October 4th through 10th, 1987, as

with regard to the number of Class "A" and Class "B" Liquor Licenses.

- 4 - 9-22-87
amending the number of Class "A" and Class "B" Liquor Licenses permitted
by the Municipal Code. The motion was voted upon by acclamation;

It was moved by Trustee Chernick and seconded by Trustee Tosto that the
Board adopt Ordinance No. 1919 entitled, "AN ORDINANCE AMENDING PARAGRAPH
B, NUMBER OF LICENSES, OF SECTION 18.1204, OF THE MUNICIPAL CODE OF THE
VILLAGE OF ELK GROVE VILLAGE BY DECREASING THE NUMBER OF CLASS "A" AND
INCREASING THE NUMBER OF CLASS "B LIQUOR LICENSES". e Presi Uent
directed the er to ca the roll on the motion and upon the roll being
called the following answered AYE: Trustees Gallitano, Hauser, Petri ,
Tosto, Bosslet, Chernick; NAY: none; ABSENT: none; whereupon the President
declared the motion carried.
The Village Manager presented a request from Joe Cross, the owner of Elk
Grove Village Taxi Company for an additional five taxi licenses to
properly serve the community. Mr. Cross requested that his Certificate of
Authority permit up to 15, cabs as he feels more taxis will be needed in
the upcoming year. In order for the request for any number of additional
cabs, the Public Vehicle Commission must meet in a public hearing. The
notice for the call is five days.
The next regular meeting of the Village Board will not be until October
13, 1987 and Mr. Cross is anxious to place additional cabs in service.
The Village Manager asked the Village Attorney if the Village could
provide interim licenses pending the public hearing.
The Village Attorney stated that the Board would have interim power to
authorize interim licenses, and then listen to testimony and ratify any
interim action, provided that we qualify anything to Mr. Cross,
accordingly. The Attorney further stated that it has been the intent,
since the amendment ten years ago, to have unlimited licenses. The
operator is asked to give the Village a number; in this case, he perhaps
underestimated.
It is with the intent of the legislation that was adopted that the Board
can authorize interim licenses. A public hearing will be necessary in
this case; however, the ordinance will be looked at and perhaps allow
amendments without the necessity of a public hearing in the future.
It was moved by Trustee Tosto and seconded by Trustee Petri that the Board
authorize up to five interim taxi licenses to Elk Grove Village Taxi
Company on the condition that suchinterim icensing in no way obligates
the Village to future decisions as an outgrowth of a hearing to be held
on October 13, 1987. The President directed the Clerk to call the roll on
the motion and upon the roll being called the following answered AYE:
Trustees Hauser, Petri , Tosto, Bosslet, Chernick, Gallitano; NAY: none;
ABSENT: none; whereupon the President declared the motion carried.
The Village Manager reported that the Village Staff did renegotiate the
construction management fee with McLennan & Thebault, Inc, on the contract
to renovate the lower levels of the Municipal Complex and the construction
of a berm, and the required 5% fee has been justified in several different
ways. The recommendation, therefore, is for approval of the contract at
the 5% fee as outlined in the September 15, 1987 communication.
It was moved by Trustee Chernick and seconded by Trustee Tosto that the
Board award a professional service contract to Mc Lennan & Thebault,
Inc.of Elk Grove Village, Illinois for construction mana ement at 5

Department of Transportation that the Oakton Street
improvement under FAUS has been inspected and
- 5 - 9-22-87
approved and totally accepted by the Department of
Transportation and the Federal Government. That
information means the Village is free to close the
file on that project and continue on with the
maintenance and servicing of that facility.
2. There were some employees in the Elk Grove Distance
Classic, and some with recorded remarkable times.
3. The employee golf outing was conducted at Fox Run Golf

Manager, Charles Willis and Fireman, Michael Harris.

the purpose of discussing current litigation and pending litigation.

Board meet in Executive Session following this meeting for the purpose of
discussing litigation. The President directed the Clerk to call the roll

introducing a program by which they have an "ambassador" to each of the
member communities that they serve. Mr. Hartinger, as the Elk Grove
Village Ambassador, will be attending Board meetings and other activities
that he deems prudent to attend.
