would like the Board to discuss the prioritized 5-year Capital
Improvements Project report and the Village Manager ' s report on the
Industrial Ditch Cleaning Project at the Committee-of-the-Whole
meeting to be held next Wednesday, October 15 , 1985 .
Trustee Gallitano asked if any provisions for the future traffic
signal installation on Rohlwing Road have been made during the
Biesterfield Road construction/improvements .
The Village Engineer stated that he is still waiting for a commitment
from IDOT for the traffic signal, but in any event there would only be
a manhole required to place the apparatus control of the signal .
Trustee Gallitano stated his concern about having to tear-up the newly
constructed road, if the approval for the signal should come through
after completion.
The Village Engineer said his requests for the signal are not included
in this phase of the FAUS project .
Trustee Hauser asked for the projected completion date of Biesterfield
Road.
The Village Engineer said he has been told the first of November,
except for the restoration and it is not even close at this time . The
Companv and IDOT have been contacted, but the only thing we can do is
charge liquidated damages and sit out the contract. The conjecture is
that the road builders have more jobs than they can handle .
President Zettek asked if this same thing would happen with the
reconstruction of Oakton Street and if FAUS money would be lost if the
project was held off until Spring.
The Village Engineer said this is already being looked into and he
would check into the contract with regard to the FAUS money.
At this time, 9 : 08 p.m. , the President asked if anyone in the audience
wished to address the Board.
Mr. . Kevin Hill, resident of the Windemere Subdivision, presented a
survey which he had taken of the residents in that area regarding
possible "No Right Turns" at Cutter and Oriole .
Other residents present: Julian Magdelano, Russ Toman , and Howard
Schwerdlin, also presented their views regarding the traffic generated
through the Subdivision. '
Discussion followed between the Board, Staff and residents regarding
traffic statistics , traffic speed and location of no right turn signs
to best serve the area.
The consensus of the Board was to enact an ordinance prohibiting right
turns from Nerge Road onto Cutter Lane between the evening rush hours,
4 :00 p.m. to 7 :00 p.m.
It was moved by Trustee Chernick and seconded by Trustee Gallitano
that the Board waive the first reading of an ordinance as it pertains
to placement of a sign on Nerge Road prohibiting a right turn at
Cutter Lane. The motion was voted upon by acclamation; whereupon the
President declared the motion carried.
It was moved by Trustee Tostc and seconded by Trustee Hauser that the
Board adopt Ordinance No. 1754 entitled, "AN ORDINANCE AMENDING
SECTION 14 . 311A, NO RIGHT TURN OF THE MUNICIPAL CODE OF THE VILLAGE OF
ELK GROVE VILLAGE, BY PROHIBITING RIGHT TURNS FROM NERGE ROAD ONTO
CUTTER LANE BETWEEN THE HOURS OF 4 : 00 P.M. AND 7 : 00 P.M. , MONDAY THRU

- 6 - 10-8-85
Trustees Gallitano, Hauser, Petri , Tosto, Chernick; NAY: none;
ABSENT: Bosslet; whereupon the President declared the motion carried.
Trustee Petri , Chairman of the Judiciary, Planning and Zoning
Committee , said the Committee met with the Plan Commission to discuss
items of mutual interest, specifically the Architectural Control

One Year Anniversary. These prizes will be distributed at the studio
on Friday, October 11 , 1985 . There was also a meeting in support of
the Telethon, as mentioned earlier by Virginia Hayter, and while the
cable funds have been authorized for the studio and the equipment,
Trustee Petri recommends the Village should support that effort with a
$2 , 000 . 00 contribution out of General Funds . The publicity that the
Village would get would make it worthwhile .
It was moved by Trustee Petri and seconded by Trustee Tosto that the
Board authorize the contribution of $2 , 000 . 00 for the Clearbrook
Telethon to be held in February, 1986 .
Discussion followed, as to other requests for charitable contributions
and President Zettek suggested that $2 , 000 . 00 be withdrawn from the
monies given to the Park District for the T.V. Studio and those funds
be used for the Telethon.
The Village Manager said the Park District has made inquiries about
obtaining a surplus vehicle from the Village for use by the Cable TV
operation. The value of that vehicle was determined and it was
planned to transfer the vehicle to them and to backcharge the Park
District thorough the Cable T.V. funds . This may or may not put a
dent in the operating plans of Channel 6 .
Trustee Petri said that the Village ' s 2% Cable funds will not be
sufficient for the operation of the studio and the Park District will
have to allocate additional funds for that program.
Trustee Petri , with the consent of the second, withdrew the motion on
the floor.
It was moved by Trustee Petri and seconded by Trustee Tosto that the
Board authorize a contrubution of $2, 000 . 00 for T.V. programming in
support of the Clearbrook Center out of the 2% Cable T.V. funds
earmarked as programming and advise the Park District. The President
directed the Clerk to call the roll on the motion and upon the roll

Tosto, Chernick, Gallitano; NAY: none; ABSENT: Bosslet; whereupon
the President declared the motion carried.
The President .said there will be a meeting of the O 'Hare Advisory
Committee Thursdav, October 10, 1985 at 10 : 00 a.m. at the O 'Hare
Hilton Hotel . Residents from all over the Suburban O'Hare Commission
area are being bussed in for this meeting. One of the debates to come
up will be on the wisdom of the SOC group concurring with the
recommendations of the City of Chicago to conduct a "150 Study" . It is
felt that SOC does not have enough input into that studv.
- 7 - 10-8-85
Trustee Hauser said the Economic Development Consultants have planned
a luncheon for Wednesday, October 23 , 1985 at Northwest Point .
Trustee Gallitano said the Community Service Board met to discuss the
role of the Community Service organization in Elk Grove and plan to
set some new goals for the next few years .
President Zettek said the Suburban O 'Hare Committee has hired a fund-
raising person and a public relations person and also mentioned the
financial status of the Commission.
Trustee Hauser said the Northwest Municipal Conference - Arterial
Study Group will meet in the Trustee ' s Conference Room on Tuesday,
October 15 , 1985 at 7 : 30 p.m. in the Mount Prospect Village Hall to
discuss Phase II of the project. This will deal with congestion and
traffic movement problems but not as it relates to construction
options per se .
Trustee Gallitano said the Public Private Sector Regional
Transportation group met and discussed several ways of approaching the
Suburban Bus Board to make recommendations for pumping in money to
study the economic centers and identified two of them as the Woodfield
area and the west O'Hare area. The thrust of the letter, to the Bus
Board, is that monev is needed to study the area and to increase
transportation services .
Trustee Gallitano felt the tone of the letter was not specific enough
as to develope those corridors that need attention, but it is a good
start. President Zettek, who sits on the Suburban Bus Board, said the
Board will not be in any position to respond in a favorable fashion
with the support of monies . The Bus Board is in a period of having to
reduce expenses and add to income due to the fare box recovery ratio
put upon the Suburban Bus Board by the RTA.
The Village Clerk presented an ordinance prepared by the Village
Attorney, as directed by the Board at the last meeting, which pertains
to a zoning variation as recommended by the Zoning Board of Appeals .

the Board waive the first reading rule of an ordinance as it pertains
to a zoning variation for construction into the required side yard for
property located at 1220 Chester Lane . The motion was voted upon by
acclamation; whereupon the President declared the motion carried.
It was moved by Trustee Chernick and seconded by Trustee Tosto that
the Board adopt Ordinance No. 1755 entitled, "AN ORDINANCE GRANTING A
VARIATION OF THE SIDE YARD REQUIREMENTS OF THE ZONING ORDINANCE OF THE
VILLAGE OF ELK GROVE VILLAGE TO PERMIT THE CONSTRUCTION OF A FIREPLACE
TWO (21 ) FEET INTO THE REQUIRED SIDE YARD AT 1220 CHESTER LANE, ELK
GROVE VILLAGE (ROCHETTO) " . The President directed the Clerk to call
the roll on the motion and upon the roll being called the following
answered AYE: Trustees Petri , Tosto, Chernick, Gallitano, Hauser;
NAY: none ; ABSENT: Bosslet; whereupon the President declared the
motion carried.
The Village Manager reported on the following:
1 . A group picture of the Village Board will
be taken before the next Board meeting on
October 22, 1985 at 7 : 45 p.m.
2 . This week is Fire Prevention Week . Smoke

President Zettek congratulated the Fire Chief on being awarded second
place by the State Fire Marshal on the Village Fire Prevention

The Village Manager referred to the annexation mentioned earlier by
the President and the discussion with the Village of Roselle regarding
the parcel of land, west of Meacham Road, south of Devon Avenue
extended, and south of the Cook County line . That area represents 20
to 25 acres and is owned by the Commonwealth Edison Company who
purchased it for the purpose of providing a corridor for the Elgin
O'Hare Expressway and a right-of-way for future utility lines for
Edison and Northern Illinois Gas Company. The Village of Roselle is
engaged in an annexation program and finds that to reach that
parcel of land, they need a continuity linkage and have asked the
Village of Elk Grove if there is any objection. The Village does not
object; however, in order to maintain a protective nature for Elk
Grove Village, it was suggested that the annexation of the property be
divided equally between Roselle and Elk Grove Village. Discussions
are continuing and Commonwealth Edison is willing to accommodate both
communities. It is the expectations of both Villages that there will
be no other uses on that land except the Elgin O'Hare expressway and
the utilities . The Board will be given a recommendation after further
discussion with the Village of Roselle.
The Village Manager reminded the Board of the decision to have a fence
installed at the Meacham Road Fire Station and 10 bids have been
submitted. The recommendation is to accept the low bid of $3 , 075 .00
from Airia Heritage of Roselle.
It was moved by Trustee Chernick and seconded by Trustee Petri that
the board award a contract to Airia Heritage of Roselle in the amount
of $3 , 075 . 00 for the installation of a fence at the Meacham Road Fire
Station. The President directed the Clerk to call the roll on the
motion and upon the roll being called the following answered AYE:
Trustees Tosto, Chernick, Gallitano, Hauser, Petri ; NAY: none;
ABSENT: Bosslet; whereupon the President declared the motion carried.

discussing property acquisition. The motion was voted upon by -
acclamation; whereupon the President declared the motion carried.
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
