Sanitary Sewer District regarding the Village' s alleged infiltration of storm
water into the sanitary sewer system.

cuts for the present fiscal year and for the 1976/77 Budget year. The Manager' s
Office will be prepared to meet with the Board as a Committee-of-the-Whole on
October 7, 1975, to advise the Board as to steps which can be taken in an
attempt to bring expenditures into line with anticipated revenue for these two
Budget years.
3. That a discussion with representatives of S.B.L. Assoc. , relating to the 80
acre developrent at Devon and Route 53, has revealed that it will probably
be necessary to conduct an additional Public Hearing in order to modify the
F Annexation Agreement relating to the use of this property.

Appeals to consider a variation of the front yard set back in the Triton
Industrial Park adjacent to land which was donated by the developers for
street purposes.
Discussion followed concerning item 4 above and the fact that this Hearing is
necessitated by their gift of a portion of property. It was the consensus that it
would be unfair that the cost inherent in a Hearing before the Zoning Board be passed
on to the donor, whereupon it was moved by Trustee Kenna and seconded by Trustee
Vanderweel that the Board direct the Zoning Board of Appeals to conduct a Hearing
on the above matter and that all fees in connection therewith be waived. The motion
was voted upon by acclamation; whereupon the President declared the motion carried.
