The Village President reported that there will be a meeting of the Suburban O'Hare Commission within the next few weeks. The appropriate legislators who favor a Regional Airport Authority are working toward getting an appropriate Bill to present to the General Assembly when they reconvene this year. The fourteen communities that make up the Suburban O'Hare Commission (SOC) , as well as some others that put the referendum on the ballot, passed by an 86% margin. This gives the legislators who support SOC and the Governor the opportunity to point to that referendum and say that some 400,000 to 500,000 people that were impacted and voted, were in favor of the RAA (Regional Airport Authority) . Trutee Hauser reported that the Non-Corridor Operational and General Recommendation Committee met on October 29, 1986 and reviewed a draft of a report which deals with communication to make people aware of road conditions , potential problem areas, contracting, design and operation requirements, and finding and management mechanisms. The report contains a request for the pursuit of an increase in the Motor Fuel Tax of 2 cents a gallon in the urban counties, subject to a regional referendum and distributed to units of local government based on residential population. This was discussed at great length and the Committee felt that 2 cents was only the tip of the iceberg. Ultimately, if there is serious concern about solving the traffic problems on main arterial and so forth, it will probably cost 7 or 8 cents unless, of course, the people vote it down. The Committee also discussed ride sharing and mass transit. The final draft will be presented to the Conference Board for approval and then to the rest of the Mayors. The Village Clerk read a letter from the Elk Grove Rotary Club, outlining their plans for the annual "Swing into Summer Fun" festival and requesting a waiver of fees for the necessary licenses associated with the carnival .

It was moved by Trustee Chernick and seconded by Trustee Hauser that the Board waive the first reading rule of an ordinance as it pertains to the increase in members of the Board of Health. The motion was voted upon by acclamation; whereupon the President declared the motion carried. It was moved by Trustee Chernick and seconded by Trustee Hauser that the Board adopt Ordinance No. 1851 entitled, "AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SECTION 7. 101 OF THE MUNICIPAL CODE OF THE VILLAGE OF ELK GROVE VILLAGE BY ADDING A NEW MEMBER TO THE BOARD OF HEALTH". The motion was voted upon by general consent to the previous vote: AYE: Bosslet, Chernick, Gallitano, Hauser, Tosto; NAY: none; ABSENT: Petri ; motion carried.

The Village Manager reported on the following: 1. The meeting on the Joint Action Water Agency as noted on the Status and Information Report, scheduled for 7:30 p.m. on October 31, 1986, has been rescheduled for 6:00 p.m. on November 19, 1986 in the Elk Grove Village Council Chamber. 2. The Village will be represented at the Illinois Department of Transportation 's public hearing on the Elgin O'Hare Expressway. The presentations will run throughout the entire day. The Village will take the posture that it has been articulating for the past 15 years; namely, that the Elgin-O'Hare Expressway is vital to Elk Grove Village and to the region as well . Every effort should be made to exhilarate the construction of that transportation artery. (The Village President noted that the Suburban O'Hare Commission will be represented by many municipalities. It would appear that the original plans presented by IDOT in 1970 indicated that on the periphery of the airport there would be berms and structures that would allow for the Elgin-O'Hare to follow on the periphery of the berms. The City of Chicago is now suggesting, in fact is intervening with the original plans that the berms and structures be removed and that the plans change and go through a residential area in Bensenville, which would mean the demolition of property and concern by the people in that subdivision. The reason the City of Chicago is suggesting that plan is because if the original plans are complied with, it would preclude them from constructing additional runways. These meetings that are taking place now are more of a show-and-tell format. The real hearings, where there will be recordable and documented objections, will take place next summer. ) 3. A number of Village employees were sent to Mount Prosepct to assist them in the flood damage crisis at the end of September and the beginning of October. The Village personnel lost/damaged three sets of boots because they did not expect to get into the work situation which they encountered when they performed the work that was necessary. They have asked for reimbursement to a total of $108.73. The Manager has authorized that reimbursement, predicated on the fact that the work was performed under emergency conditions. 4. The Manager's Office has an incomplete tally on the survey being conducted relating to the sidewalks in the Industrial Park. Twenty replies have been received. Half are in favor and think there is a need for sidewalks, and half think there is no real need for the sidewalks. As more questionnaires are received, the Board will be notified. 5. The Northwest Municipal Conference (NAMC) meeting is tomorrow, Wednesday, November 12, 1986. The Village Manager will be representing the Village. One of the issues on the agenda is Transportation - the Road to - 5 - 11-11-86 Nowhere. There will also be consideration to amend the Bylaws of the Conference. The Village position parallels that of the Executive Committee of the Conference; namely, to retain the same voting requirements, which simply limits the voting capabilities to the Mayor or Village President, Village Trustees or the Manager; other alternates are not permitted to vote on Conference business. There will be discussion of the public/private transportation recommendations. If there are any thoughts on that subject, let the Manager know of them before the meeting. 6. The Village Engineer has prepared a report on the Oakton Street design capability for weights and for vehicle movement, as requested, due to questions offered at the previous Board meeting. Trustee Hauser said he would like the Oakton Street concern by the citizens in that area be put back on the Agenda as he has some comments on the Police Report that was presented to the Board. It was the consensus of opinion of the Board to discuss this item at the Committee-of-the-Whole meeting on Tuesday, November 18, 1986. At this time, 9:00 p.m. , the President asked if anyone in the audience wished to address the Board. There being no comment, the meeting continued. The President requested an Executive Session after tonight's Board meeting to discuss an appointment to the Plan Commission. It was moved by Trustee Hauser and seconded by Trustee Tosto that the Board hold an Executive Session after tonight's regular Board meeting for the purpose of discussing Personnel - appointment to the Elk Grove Plan Commission. The motion was voted upon by acclamation; whereupon the President declared the motion carried. It was moved by Trustee Bosslet 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 9:01 P.M. Patricia S. Smith Village Clerk Charles J. Zettek Village President - 6 - 11-11-86
