allow the vehicles to be housed out of the Village overnight. The
Committee recommends that the use of vehicles for a limited time
during the day remain the same; however, for overnight or for an
extended length of time , the employee would have to show some type of
insurability and the vehicle would have to be returned to the Village
lot for the weekend. It is also recommended that when an employee
uses his personal vehicle, when a Village vehicle is not available,

The Village Manager reported on the following:
1 . The 10K Classic Run co-sponsored by the Elk Grove
Communitv Service was a huge success. The first
male employee to cross the finish line was
Assistant Director of Public Works, Mike Falls,
and the first female employee was Police Officer,
Lynn Indurante. The run is being telecast on
Channel 6 each night this week at 7 : 00 p.m.
2 . The JAWA Board meeting will be held on Thursday,
September 26 , 1985 at 7 : 00 p.m. in the Elk Grove
Village Council Chamber.
The dedication ceremony of the Lake Michigan
water pumping site will not be held until spring
when the landscaping will be completed. The
pumps should be turned on sometime this week
for testing.
3 . The Illinois Department of Transportation will
conduct a public hearing on Thursday, October
10 , 1985 at 7 :30 p.m. for the purpose of
presenting and discussing the proposed inter-
change improvement at Biesterfield Road and
Interstate 290 .
4 . The Metrcpolital Sanitary District convened
a meeting to discuss diverting an additional
10 ,000 cubic feet per second of water from
Lake Michigan in order to minimize the amount
of shore line damage which is occurring through-
out the Great Lakes area, as a result of the
Great Lakes being at one of the highest levels
in many years . This idea was initially advanced
by the Army Corps of Engineers last spring. The
idea was presented to the Governors of the five
States surrounding the Great Lakes and the
Governors felt that it would not be in the best
interest of the general public.
Illinois was concerned that the additional flow,
into the waterways, would interfere with and do
- 7 - 9-24-85
• r
damage to the farmland as far south as the point
where the Illinois and Mississippi Rivers meet.
The Village Manager spoke to the assembly
suggesting that the additional diversion would
not be objected to if it did not cause further
harm downstream in the State of Illinois and
secondly the concern might be that the decision
on that point might serve as some precedent in
the future when perhaps the lake levels were
very low and there would be movements to reduce
the allocations, if only on a temporary basis,
to preserve the general elevations of the lakes .
The decision could cause major adverse
consequences on the water agency and the
millions of people in the Chicago area who
rely on Lake Michigan water. There has been
no decision made at this time.
5 . A report is forthcoming on the maintenance of
the industrial area private drainage ditches.
6 . The Cellular Phone Division of Ameritech has
approached the Village to use a portion of
Village property for the purpose of erecting
a transmitter/receiver relav facility. The
basic business terms of that proposal has been
distributed to the Board. The Board should let
the Manager' s Office know if they wish to
consider the lease of that property so they can
further proceed with the inquiry or terminate
discussion.
The Village Manager and Village Attorney explained
the tax status and termination policies.
After discussion, Trustee Petri said there is no objection to drawing
up the specific document and then it can be reviewed.
It was moved by Trustee Hauser and seconded by Trustee Petri 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 : 23 p.m.
