The motion was voted upon by acclamation; whereupon the President declared the motion carried.

The SOS people were there trying to haves termin- ated, and their testimony took up all of the County and Township Committee's allotted time. Dave Regner was appointed Chairman of the subcommittee to take testimony from both the county people and the municipal officials. Saturday, April 8th, I journeyed to Urbana where the Executive Board of the Illinois Municipal heague had a meeting, basically to review legislation to date to improve our method of implementing legislative values to municipalities, the Illinois municipal 'Neview of March, 1967, contained a review of legislative activities, and the following report hopefully covers items not mentioned in the Municipal '.eview. Because of my work with the Illinois Municipal League, I would like to make an up-to- date report to the Board about the League's legislative program to 1) Zeceive the bene- fit of the Board's advice, and 2) To ask support of the legislative effort of the Illinois Municipal League. To date the League has introduced 366 bills, and by the end of the Session this could be pretty close to 500. The Municipal I-Tome ule Amendment to the Constitution will probably take place as a result of a constitutional convention in which all leadership elements of the State governmental units are in accord. The constitutional convention would probably be voted upon in the 1968 election with a report back to the Legislature assembled in 1969 or 1971 . Competitive Bidding of Bonds: House Bills 104 and 269 . The League has taken no official action essentially on these bills. Bonds must be sold to the highest and best bidder after 10 days prior public notice of the sale. Collective Bargaining - Labor ?elations: House Bill 289, Senate Bill 452. (Governor's Commission) . Before the Illinois Municipal League takes a position, the President of the League, °tanley Weaver, .'✓Iayor of Urbana, has set up a special committee to make recommendations to the Board of :Directors sof the League. The Committee is chaired by Mayor Behrels of Des Plaines . the rest of the Committee is made up of Mayor Clyde Weissman of Alton, Paul Simon, Corporation Counsel of the City of Chicago, Lou Ansel, Municipal Attorney, and myself. Municipal Clerks' Training: House Bill 364, Senate Bill 230. This bill would make training of village clerks and city clerks mandatory. Through the League efforts and the efforts of our own Village Clerk, Mrs . Turner, the Bill has been amended to make the training permissive. Open meetings: House Bill 476. This bill was introduced and had major amendments made to it, so at the moment it is difficult to advise you of the present form of this bill. In its original form this bill greatly restricted public legislative, administrative and ad- visory bodies in the conduct of business. for example, the attorney-client relationship is greatly restricted. Labor negotiations would have to be conducted in public, notice of regular and special meetings would have to be given to the press, radio and TV sta- tions which in our case would probably necessitate another employee to deliver notices to the local and metropolitan newspapers and the various TV and radio stations in the metropolitan area. PRESIDENT'S REPORT - 2 - Mayor John Woods of Arlington :eights and Attorney jack Segal of Arlington ;,eights and Evanston, and 'udy Hanson, Village Manager of Arlington Heights, along with Steve Sargent, Assistant Executive Director of the Municipal League, spent much time with the sponsors of this bill to get more responses to the needs of the public and the public officials. BrIunicipal Non-Property lax Package: House Bills 255-259, Senate Bills 211-214, 318 and 319. These bills are being held up in both the 'house and Senate, pending the Governor's Budget Message. Regardless of what,'his message indicates, the needs of the cities and villages of the State will still have to be met through additional revenue sources. Amends Police Training Act: Senate Bill 393 . '-Defines permanent police officer. Adds advanced or in-service training for permanent police officers to schooling the Board may provide. Adds human relations to curriculum. Describes curriculum and gives details of the training program. Provides for Board to reimburse local governmental units par- ticipating in the training program for permanent police officers in the same manner as trainees. No more than 505.1 of any appropriation under this Act shall be spent in any city of more than 500,000 population. Appropriates $2, 194, 120 to carry out provisions of Act." M.F.T. Administration: These bills are being drafted by the League Attorney, Frank Pfeiffer, and hopefully will be introduced this week. Essentially the bills provide that motor fuel monies will be distributed to municipalities as they are collected. Projects attempted by municipalities could be handled without receiving the permission of the Illinois Highway Department, and the motor fuel tax monies could be used in providing off-street parking facilities. The stipulations in regard to off-street parking require that the plans be approved by a registered engineer. Thus the fuel tax funds that communities receive would then be subject to M.F.T. auditors. Tax for School Crossina Guards: House Bill 294. It looks as though this bill will be passed by both I:ouses and probably signed by the Governor. Solicitors: House Bills 297, 1109 . Introduced by Gene Schlickman and strongly sup- ported by the Northwest Municipal Conference. The bill has been withdrawn because of great pressure from the direct sellers. They and the sponsor are to get together be- tween now and the next General ?Assembly and work up a bill which can be supported by all parties concerned. Zoning Laws Commission: Senate Bill 419. As this Board knows, the Illinois Bar Association has been working for 7 years on revising the statute relating to zoning and the Municipal League has been workingwlth. the Illinois Bar Committee for a year. These two groups will not have a report ready for this biennium. Therefore Senate Bill 419 was introduced and appropriates $25,000 to expedite the revision of this article which will include a judicial commission. The Illinois Municipal League, through its attorney, Frank Pfeiffer, is planning to offer some amendments to take care of such new zoning techniques as transitional zoning, floating zoning, and unit zoning. PRESIDENT'S REPORT - 3 - State Grants to Local Covernments: Senate Bill 463. "Appropriates $180,000,000 to Department of Finance, 1/3 of which is to be distributed to counties and 2/3 to municipalities, based on population." The League Staff has determined that this appropriation would amount to about $6.74 per capita and that if passed would come to municipalities with strings attached. If the monies would come to us through the Illinois Mu n icipal League tax package, they would be without any qualifications from the State. Publication of 'treasurer's Ceport: House Bill 779. Our own Paul Bolin was instru- mental in getting the municipal finance organization to support a professional type report, and it looks like all elements of the State are agreed on what this report should now contain. Zoning for 'Mobile Homes: House Bill 1120. 'Adds section to Municipal Code. Pro- vides that no municipal zoning ordinance shall prohibit in any residence district a mobile home on land owned by owner of mobile home if a lot area of at least 2, 100 square feet is provided." Mass Transportation: House Bills 815, 816. HB 815: " Amends Local Mass Transit District Act. Permits creation of district without referendum but requires referendum before tax may be imposed." HB 816: "Amends :Metropolitan 'transit Authority Act. Empowers Authority to contract with any county contiguous to Cook County for the operation of transportation equipment and facilities in that county, and counties con- �iguous to Cook County shall have power to enter into these agreements with the A athority.." Licensing of Contractors: Senate Bill 654. "Creates Contractors Licensing Act. Pro- vides for the licensing and regulation of certain contractors and their operations . Appropriates $250,000 to Department of Registration and Education. Repeals sections in M_inicipal Code. " I request that the J.udiciary, Planning and Zoning Committee make a recommendation to me on this Bill. Last week I met with the President of the Cook County Board to discuss our road needs . Jur program will be sent to the County Highway Superintendent for evaluation and re- port. This is our number one project for the year 1967. The Village's personnel rules state that Village owned vehicles are to be taken home overnight on an assigned regular basis only where authorized by the Village Board. In accordance with this, I therefore recommend that the Board grant 'James Clementi permission to take the Water Department station wagon home overnight. I ask the Board to appoint myself as a member of the Northwest Suburban Transporta- tion Committee and to appoint as an alternate "'rustee Ceorge Coney. The : :uman Relations people have submitted to me a tentative budget of $1 ,300. I will give to the Board an itemized breakdown at our next budget meeting. At the present time I have half of the membership willing to serve on the new Commission, and at our next meeting this will be complete. I have proclaimed May 1 through "day 13 as "Father of the Year"time, and a copy of the proclamation is attached. I have also proclaimed the period of April 23 through April 29 as "Automatic Merchandising Week" , and a copy of this proclamation is attached hereto.
