Kuhn, Inc. of Wheaton, Illinois on a per unit cost, as follows, for street milling and paving: - 2 - 4-8-86 Milling $0.45/square yard Prime Coat Bituminous 0.25/gallon Materials Prime Coat Aggregate 5.00/ton Bituminous Concrete 25.00/ton Surface Cost Leveling Binder 25.00/ton Reflective Crack 0.59/Square yard Control Treatment (for an estimated total cost of $492,564.60) The Board award a purchase contract, using MFT and Capital Project Funds , to the low bidder, Triggi Construction Company, Inc. of Medinah at the following unit prices for sidewalk, curb and gutter removal and replacement: Sidewalk removal & $ 2.12 per sq. ft. replacement Curb & gutter removal & 9.08 per lineal ft. replacement Driveway removal & 22.00 per sq. ft. replacement (for an estimated total cost of $132,034. ) The Board award a purchase contract, using MFT, General Corporate and Capital Projects Funds, to the low bidder, to Palumbo Brothers of Hillside, at the following unit prices to furnish paving materials for the patching program: Bituminous Concrete $16.90 per ton Course Emulsified Asphalt 2.50 per gallon Bituminous Surface Course 18.90 per ton (for an estimated total cost of 186,110. ) The President directed the Clerk to call the roll on the motion to approve the Consent Agenda items, "A, B, C, D, E, and G" , and upon the roll being called the following answered AYE: Trustees Gallitano, Hauser, Petri , Bosslet; NAY: none; ABSENT: Chernick, Tosto; whereupon the President voted "AYE" and declared the motion carried. President Zettek asked the Village Attorney to speak to item F, on the Consent Agenda. The Village Attorney said that he had reviewed the bids for the BG Paver and the bases of the recommendation and suggests that the Board accept a bid to the same company in the amount of 590,000. That is the low bid of the initial bids. That company submitted an alternative proposal and the Attorney further suggests that in accepting the bid for $90,000 that motion also carry with it a proviso that the Village retain the right to accept the alternative proposal of $101,345 the discretion of the Village. Should the Village wish to market the used paver either through a public bid process at a private sale or through a municipal entity where a bid would not be necessary for whatever value the Village can get. The Village would then be in a position of purchasing it at $101,345 and the Village would benefit by whatever they sell the used paver for. The initial award should be for what we bid at $90,000 again with the retention of the right to accept the alternative. - 3 - 4-8-86 Discussion followed regarding the intention of the vendor regarding the alternative proposal and the various ways tc sell the used paver. York Township Highway Department has presented a proposal of $25,000 for the used paver and another company has come in with an offer of 530,000. It has been the policy of the Village to go out to bid for selling of property to other than another municipality. The Attorney stated that the Board does have the right both in the purchase and in the sale to waive the bidding requirements by a two-thirds vote, if the Board should want to act on the proposals that are now before them with respect to the used paver. It was moved by Trustee Hauser and seconded by Trustee Bosslet that the Board award a purchase contract to the Barber Greene Company, North Aurora, Illinois, to furnish a BG-220 Paver at a total cost of 590,000 but that the Village retain the right to accept the alternate proposal submitted at the bid opening by Barber Greene Company of $101 ,345.00 with no trade.

It was moved by Trustee Hauser and seconded by Trustee Bosslet that the Board authorize the Purchasing Agent to go to bid for the sale of the used paver as expeditiously as possible. 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, Gallitano, Hauser; NAY: none; ABSENT: Chernick, Tosto; whereupon the President declared the motion carried. President Zettek requested the Board to act on the request for a variation to permit the adding of additional space to an existing structure to the property owned by Anthony Maioriello. It was moved by Trustee Petri and seconded by Trustee Hauser that the Board waive the first reading rule of an ordinance as it pertains to amending a Special use permit previously granted by Ordinance No. 1011 to Anthony J. Maioriello to permit an addition to an existing structure and to allow parking within the building line setback at 1199 S. Arlington Heights Road, Elk Grove Village. The motion was voted upon by acclamation; whereupon the President declared the motion carried. It was moved by Trustee Petri and seconded by Trustee Hauser that the Board adopt Ordinance No. 1792 entitled, "AN ORDINANCE AMENDING A SPECIAL USE PERMIT PREVIOUSLY GRANTED BY ORDINANCE NO. 1011 TO ANTHONY J. MAIORIELLO TO PERMIT AN ADDITION TO AN EXISTING STRUCTURE AND TO ALLOW PARKING WITHIN THE BUILDING LINE SETBACK FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT 1199 S. ARLINGTON HEIGHTS ROAD, ELK GROVE VILLAGE".

Total 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 , Bosslet, Gallitano; NAY: none; ABSENT: Chernick, Tosto; whereupon the President declared the motion carried. Trustee Petri , Chairman of the Judiciary, Planning and Zoning Committee, reported that the Committee met on April 2, 1986 and discussed virtually all items on their Agenda and agreed on the following recommendation of item K, Zoning Board of Appeals Docket 86-2 - 1210 Robin Drive, as it pertains to a deck. All members of the Committee and other members of the Board have looked at the property and discussed it with Mr. Hezinger and the consensus was to disagree with the Zoning Board's recommendation and grant the variation and direct the Attorney to prepare the ordinance. Trustee Gallitano said he was not apart of that meeting and asked what the basis was for the conclusion by the Judiciary, Planning and Zoning Committee. Trustee Petri said the basic reason for the Zoning Board of Appeals to turn down the request was the neighbors potential if the current owner moved out that there might be someone who might cause some noise, which we did not feel was a real basis for an objection. The resident had all of the necessary items from all of the utility companies that he did not infringe on any of there rights-of-way, did not effect the drainage as his yard slopes to the point that it is unusable without a deck. The neighbors on either side had no objection and the deck was built in conformance with the Building Code. It was moved by Trustee Petri and seconded by Trustee Bosslet that the Board grant a variation to the Zoning Ordinance to allow an existing deck at 1210 Robin Drive, Elk Grove Village, and to direct the Village Attorney to prepare the proper ordinance. 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, Gallitano, Hauser; NAY: none; ABSENT: Chernick, Tosto; whereupon the President declared the motion carried. Trustee Petri continued with the Judiciary, Planning and Zoning Committee's recommendations on the remaining Agenda items: Item e. POLITICAL SIGNS: After discussion and looking at some other ordinances and discussing the results with representatives from Rolling Meadows the Committee's recommended course of action is that prior to election time send a letter over the Village Presidents signature to each major political campaign office stating our local ordinance similar to what we do with the local elections, and that would be our start. Rolling Meadows has had some success with doing similar - 5 - 4-8-86 type items but they see no way to get complete conformance, as it is impossible to police everywhere. Item f. DEVON AVENUE ZONING: The Committee recommends B-2 Zoning from Berthold' s Nursery, west to Salt Creek, and feel this is the highest and best use of the property. Trustee Gallitano asked what would happen if a homeowner sells to someone else who wishes to also maintain a home and was told they do not have to change to business. Trustee Hauser said the important thing to him was that B-2 requires a 150 foot frontage and he feels this is very critical . It was the consensus of opinion for Staff to be directed to have a public hearing before the Plan Commission to petition for a Zoning Map change to reflect the zoning change for this area. Item h. ORDINANCE - SATELLITE RECEIVING DISH: The Committee looked at a number of ordinances based on the recommendation of the Building Commissioner and feel that the current Village Ordinance has enough controls in it until the Zoning Performance Standards get updated. Item j. TREE ROOTS IN THE SANITARY SEWER LINES: The Committee recommends that some money be set aside to assist the homeowner in a 65-35% split of the costs incurred. The total amount for tree removal and replacement has been estimated at $670.00. This would break down to tree and stump removal cost or 65% to be done by the homeowner and the tree replacement and ground restoration or 35% be done by the Village. This would be stipulated that the work be done by a Village recommended contractor. Discussion followed as to Village liability, amount of money to be set aside for this work, and whether or not the Village should subcontract the work. The consensus was to defer action until all of the Trustees have had a chance to review this item. Item i. LINE OF SIGHT RESTRICTIONS: There will be a day light meeting of the Committee, the Building Commission and the Police Chief will go and take a look at those areas. Trustee Petri said the Committee has had at least two discussions on the Commercial Maintenance Code and quite a volume of input on it. Trustee Gallitano said there is a serious problem at the Grove Shopping Center, stating that part of the road has been ripped up and there has been a mound of gravel there since the winter months in the outer drive that surrounds Michaels. He further stated that the pot holes are about 6 to 8 inches deep and if you go over them you can do damage to your vehicle. Trustee Gallitano wanted to know if the Commercial Maintenance Code will address those problems and what type of pressure can be put upon the owners to make that a non-hazardous parking lot. Trustee Petri said it is a long hard process to get compliance as for example the Burger King parking lot. We are trying to consider what steps - 6 - 4-8-86 can be taken short of closing down the shopping centers, which we have few enough of now. Trustee Gallitano said he is in favor of sealing up the entrance to Burger King in order for him (the owner) to make a better traffic pattern there. The Assistant Village Manager said that Mr. Serfecz, Owner of the Grove Shopping Center, has contacted him with regard to putting in catch basins and running them towards the new storm sewer that the Village is putting into the new parking lot, in order to drain those areas. Mr. Parrin said he did not know if that would be feasible or not, but that Mr. Serfecz is making some motions to correct the standing water problem. Trustee Hauser said the Park & Shop parking lot is in very bad condition also. Trustee Gallitano suggested that the Village make a general survey of the parking lots at the shopping centers and have Staff work with the owners to try and get them to patch. The Village Manager said this type of suggestion has been done in the past with the shopping center owners and has been met with some slight success but it takes a long time to materialize. President Zettek said that before we do anything we should get an opinion from the Attorney as to what ability we have to go into a shopping center and exercise whatever we think is appropriate correction. The Village Attorney said he would like to take a further look but there has always been some problems with private property and in burdening them with the type of expense except when it becomes a nuisance on property where the public is invited. I think we then have a greater authority especially under Home Rule and further especially where we have fire lanes and access for municipal equipment. We do have a vested right then in that particular area to have it safe so we are not damaging Village equipment. Therefore, if we can do that we can probably transcend that authority and get into the other areas of the parking lot. Trustee Petri said that maybe the Village should look at the base of the parking lot maybe it is too thin to start with and since we have a few new shopping centers on the books , maybe, we should look at the Village parking lot standards and get those upgraded so we won't have future problems as severe as they are now. The consensus of the Board was for the Manager to approach the Owners/Managers of the shopping centers and see if he can prevail upon them to correct the existing problems and to report back to the Board in a few weeks on whether they found a problem and what the reception was of the management authority and/or owners. At this time, 9: 15 p.m. , Trustee Tosto arrived at the meeting. Trustee Bosslet asked the Police Chief if any of the cars for sale in the parking lot had been ticketed as yet. The Chief responded that as a form of warning a copy of the Village ordinance prohibiting the parking of cars for sale in the parking lots has been placed under the windshield wiper. After the signs have been up for a period of one week, tickets will be placed on the offending vehicles. At this time, 9:20 p.m. , the President asked if anyone in the audience wished to address the Board. A gentleman in the audience stated that at the last Board meeting he was told that Lieutenant Rose had dropped his suit against the Village and that is not the case. President Zettek answered that the Village is aware of that. - 7 - 4-8-86 The Village Manager presented a plat of subdivision that has been reviewed by the Plan Commission , the Judiciary, Planning and Zoning Committee and Staff entitled, "Gullo Chase Subdivision" . It was moved by Trustee Petri and seconded by Trustee Hauser that the Board adopt Resolution No. 30-86 entitled, "RESOLUTION OF APPROVAL OF PLAT OF SUBDIVISION IDENTIFIED AS GULLO CHASE AVENUE INDUSTRIAL PARK". The President directed the Clerk to call the roll on the motion and upon the roll being called the following answered AYE: Trustees Bosslet, Gallitano, Hauser, Petri , Tosto; NAY. none; ABSENT: Chernick; whereupon the President declared the motion carried. The Village Manager presented an ordinance to grant a variation to permit parking into the required front yard at 2420 Elmhurst Road. It was moved by Trustee Petri and seconded by Trustee Tosto that the Board waive the first reading rule of an ordinance as it pertains to a variation of Section 3.55 of the Zoning Ordinance. The motion was voted upon by acclamation; whereupon the President declared the motion carried. It was moved by Trustee Petri and seconded by Trustee Tosto that the Board adopt Ordinance No. 1793 entitled, "AN ORDINANCE GRANTING A VARIATION OF SECTICN 3.55, C-2 OF THE ZONING ORDINANCE OF THE VILLAGE OF ELK GROVE VILLAGE TO PERMIT THE PARKING OF VEHICLES FIVE (5) FEET INTO THE REQUIRED FRONT YARD (UNITED STATES DEVELOPMENT CORP. )". The President directed the Clerk to call the roll on the motion and upon the roll being called the following answered AYE: Trustees Gallitano, Hauser, Petri , Tosto, Bosslet; NAY: none; ABSENT: Chernick; whereupon the President declared the motion carried. The Village Manager presented two letters of recommendation from the Zoning Board of Appeals pertaining to Docket Nos. 86-7 and 86-8 for the Boards consideration. It was moved by Trustee Hauser and seconded by Trustee Bosslet to concur with the "Do Grant" recommendation of the Zoning Board of Appeals, Docket No. 86-7, and to direct the Village Attorney to prepare the proper ordinance. The motion was voted upon by acclamation; whereupon the President declared the motion carried. It was moved by Trustee Petri and seconded by Trustee Bosslet that the Board concur with the "Do Grant" recommendation of the Zoning Board of Appeals , Docket No. 86-8, and to direct the Village Attorney to prepare the proper ordinance. The motion was voted upon by acclamation; whereupon the President declared the motion carried. Trustee Petri said the Cable Committee met on April 3, 1986 and said a letter will be sent cut with the new rate schedule which will become effective in August, 1986. Trustee Petri said some of the rates are going up and some are going down but it is a new structure. A copy of the list and the letter will be distributed to the Board. The next meeting will be held in Palatine on Thursday, June 5, 1986. The President said the O'Hare Advisory Committee meeting for this Thursday has been deferred and no date has been set as yet. Trustee Hauser reported that the Board met on April 1, 1986 with Mr. Harvey Zorn and Gary West to discuss the ramifications and the problems that may arise regarding a free trade zone. The President said the Board of Health is putting in a lot of effort on the licensing ordinance as it applies to congregate housing and they are also looking at the health impact study. Trustee Hauser said there was a meeting this morning at 7:30 a.m. of the Northwest Municipal Conference - Transportation Partnership Study, however, he was unable to attend. Trustee Hauser will be checking with William Grams to get the information on the review of the consultants technical analysis and everything that he has put together. The Northwest - 8 - 4-8-86 Municipal Conference Staff will propose time line of procedure for IDOT/Municipal Review of the recommendations. Another item on the agenda is implementin.o the recommendation and they will discuss what oversight will be provided to encourage implementation of the partnerships recommendations. The Northwest Municipal Conference Staff is going to propose creating a board model after the NCCPIC Board. The Village Clerk presented a request from the Elk Grove Park District for a waiver of Alarm User License fee for Channel . It was moved by Trustee Petri and seconded by Trustee Bosslet that the Board waive the Alarm User License fee for Channel 6 located at 499 Biesterfield Road (Park District). The motion was voted upon by acclamation whereby Trustee Hauser passed; whereupon the President declared the motion carried. President Zettek said he contacted the principal of Adolph Link School and she is in the process of setting up another meeting between the school authorities, the Village Board, and the residents. A notice will be sent to the Board as soon as that meeting date is set. The Village Manager introduced the new Village Engineer, Alan Boffice to the Board. The Village Manager said there is a Special Board meeting scheduled for April 15, 1986 at 7:00 p.m. to consider the sale of General Obligation Bonds for Capital Project 's Program and due to an Executive Session scheduled for that evening the Board should consider changing the Special Board meeting time to 6:30 p.m. It was moved by Trustee Petri and seconded by Trustee Hauser to reschedule the staring time of the Special Board meeting on April 15, 1986 to 6:30 p.m. The motion was voted upon by acclamation; whereupon the President declared the motion carried. The Village Manager said that some materials on that Special Board meeting has been distributed to the Board. It is anticipated that some additional information will be going out before the end of the week that has all the numbers and the official statement document is put into final form for consideration. The Village Manager reported on the following item: 1. Approval of the Board is needed to send out a letter from the Fire Department to Day Care Center operators about training programs. The Manager said that he would interpret the absence of a response to assume that communication meets with approval . (President Zettek said that in these cases if no negative feed back is received within 48 hours to go ahead with the mailing. ) 2. The Manager's Office has a number of tickets available for the April 10, 1986 meeting with Governor Thompson at Oakton Community College. 3. The Joint Action Water Agency dinner will be held on April 18, 1986. 4. The Manger said the Board has not yet reviewed the wages and salaries and suggested a number of dates for the Boards consideration in order for that package to be approved at the Board meeting of April 22, 1986 so that whatever adjustments are authorized can be incorporated into the May 1, 1986 paychecks. The consensus of opinion was to meet at 7:00 p.m. on April 21, 1986. 5. The Hertz Rent-A-Car Company has elected to exercise a purchase of another parcel of property outside of Elk - 9 - 4-8-86 Grove Village and therefore, will not be pursuing their option on the property within Elk Grove Village. 6. The Water Agency has delivered over a billion gallons of water to the seven communities. In the month of March alone the delivery was 495 million gallons. The Village portion of that was about 80 million gallons. The volume of water being delivered to the communities is increasing. There is one connect point that has not yet been activated and probably will not be until a more definitive answer is found to the chatter and vibration to the "ball valves". This problem has been exhibited in the other connect points throughout the system but no where near the magnitude of the one at. the Dierking Terrace facility. The engineers , designers and manufacturers are all working to find a solution to the problem. The Director of Public Works said the other three connect points are open, however, the water in the system is still a mingle of Lake Michigan water and well water. 7. The Executive Committee of the Water Agency has been looking at refunding of the 1985 107 million dollar bond issue that was sold to close out the project. It appears that there are a number of alternatives to reduce the cost of the water. The options being looked at will produce a saving ranging from 3.2 cents per thousand gallons to 5.2 cents per thousand gallons. What those numbers turn out to be, for example, at 5.2 cents would be an annual savings of $522,000 for about 25 years. Those options are being examined and if the bond market and all the other constraints that have to be abided by continue to work toward our benefit, it will be recommended to the Board of Directors of the Water Agency that some part, if not all , of the 1985 Bond Issue be refunded in order to achieve the kinds of savings as stated. 8. There is a piece of legislation that has passed the House and the Senate that has to do with the monitoring of storm water discharge points throughout the United States. The measure is now before a confidence committee hoping that through that process they will find the correct words that both chambers will agree to. The legislation is selective and discriminatory to the highest order, it applies only to those systems that have separate sanitary sewers and separate storm sewer systems. Communities with combined sewer systems are not covered by the proposed legislation. There appears to be enough strength in both Houses to pass a bill of this nature. The Manager described the process that would be required by the Village and the costs that would be incurred stating that each single connect point could be as much as $8,000 making this a very costly proposition. The Manger feels this will be step one leading to a point in the future when the requirements will be to treat storm water in the same basic sense as sanitary waste is presently treated. The Village Manager feels that the Village ought to again voice objection to this measure as was done last fall and if there is no objection, the Village should file another objection to that piece of legislation. - 10 - 4-8-86 The Village Manager recommended that the Board consider awarding five trade contracts to continue on with the Municipal Building additions. The five companies have tendered the bids and the bids have been reviewed. The total of the bids is $170,924.00. The largest of which is $57,500 for flooring and carpeting as stated in the memorandum of the Finance Director dated April 4, 1986. It was moved by Trustee Petri and seconded by Trustee Tosto that the Board award five trade contracts for the Municipal Building addition per the April 4, 1986 memorandum from the Director of Finance. 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, Gallitano; NAY: none; ABSENT: Chernick; whereupon the President declared the motion carried. Trustee Hauser commented on the following items: 1. He did not feel the Village should put up the guard rail on Biesterfield Road and David. 2. Trustee Hauser questioned why the Village Manger did not feel that the Village should look into the sun tanning operation. The Manager stated that principally this is a private business enterprise and there is no impact on the public health, welfare or safety other than on those people who may visit those places in much the same way as they might visit a grocery store or some other facility where they do so at their own volition. The market place ought to determine whether those kinds of facilities continue in business and if so under what conditions and terms from a private business point of view as opposed to a governmental point of view. Surely there are risks associated with artificial suntanning in must the same way as there is risk associated with natural tanning process out in the sunlight. The question is to what extent does the user of that source of tanning material use good judgement or fails to use good judgement. I do not believe that this is the arena for local government to exercise its police powers or licensing or regulation powers. The President said he has read a report from the Health Department and they are going to send another letter to the Board advocating that the Board do something regarding licensing of these establishments. 3. Trustee Hauser referred to the Nerge Road project and the status of the FAUS funding. The Village Engineer said he met with the Department of Transportation last week and they are looking to have the highway acquired by June, 1986, to have an early July County bid letting. The County does not have to conform to the Federal Government timetable. We are on a very strict time table with the right-of- ways people, appraisers, negotiators, and reviewers. With very good luck we should make the July deadline. If we make the June 30th deadline the funds will be available. The President said there is a great concentration going on throughout the Chicago and suburban area to use all the FAUS money we can because nobody knows what is going to happen in latter part of the year as a result of the Gramm-Rudman Bill and a lot of - 11 - 4-8-86 Federal constraints on money. There is a Bill in the congress that suggests that all monies that normally were allocated to FAUS monies would be dedicated to the State along with highway funding and then the State would allocate money back to the Chicago and suburban communities. It is incumbent upon us to get the right-of-way as quickly as possible because if we run into delays we could be at risk. That was one reason that Elk Grove Village was asked to be the lead agency because we have a track record and the wherewithal through Staff to pursue the right-of-ways and all the other kind of other organization that is needed. Trustee Hauser wanted to confirm that if the money should be gone there is no obligation upon the Village to have to put up funds to get that road finished. It was moved by Trustee Petri and seconded by Trustee Tosto that the meeting be adjourned. The motion was voted upon by acclamation; whereupon the President declared the motion carried and the meeting adjourned at 10:09 P.M. Patricia S. Smith Villaae Clerk Charles J.
