During discussion of the dra e r b em east f Elmhurst Road, Attorney Hofert
said that there are private as we 1 69 public benefits to be derived from a
correction of the drainage problem and the Board may wish to explore the possibility
of a share arrangement of the costs involved therein. The Village Manager was then
requested by the Board to inquire of Village Engineer Fletcher whether or not he
would be interested in preparing plans for corrective steps and to get an estimate
or estimates of costs of such a project.
In reply to Trustee Coney, Attorney Hofert said he will investigate the status of
the tax gscrow deposit made by the Elk Grove Water and Sewer Company. Inc, with
the Village and determine whether or not all monies due have been withdrawn from
the deposit.
President Pahl quea'ti.oned Attorney Hofert as to the manner in which the Village can
be made aware of all legislation which is passed affecting municipalities so the
Village Board can insure that Village ordinances are amended to comply. Mr. Hofert
said that at the close of the legislative session, the Illinois Municipal League
usually reviews all legislation and submits a report on that legislation which
effects cities and villages. At that time it would be in order to reveiw the Code
for the purpose of determining whether or not there are any obvious inconsistencies
with State law.
Village Manager Majorca reported that well #3 was test pumped on June 21st, 22nd
and will be again on June 23rd, and assuming there are no problems it will be
connected into the system the evening of June 23rd. Mr. Majorca was requested to
prepare a use versus capacity water report.
In reply to Trustee Lewis, Mr. Majorca reported that the problem of debris on the
streets from contracting equipment has been given close attention and that one
ticket was issued today for a violation. President Pahl requested Mr. Majorca
to report at the next meeting as to how many tickets were issued prior to this
date.
In the absence of the Street Department Foreman, the Village Clerk read the Street
Department Report for the month of May 1965, giving a breakdown of the total man
hours spent in each area of street and other public maintenance work. (This report
will be on file in the Clerk's office.)
During discussion of the snow removal program, Mr. Majoros said he and Mr. Andrews
will have the specifications together with an area map ready for presentation to
the Board at the July 6th meeting of the Village Board.
Mr. Majorca read excerpts from the Monthly Operating and Maintenance Report for
May 1965 prepared by Mr. James Clementi, Water & Sewer Department. (This report
will be on file in the Clerk's office for reading.)
Following presentation of the Accounts Payable Warrant by Village Manager Majoros,
it was moved by Trustee Lewis and seconded by Trustee Zettek that the Board
authorize the disbursement of :17,675,51 from the General Corporate Account and
P,384.11 from the Water & Sewer Department Operating Account in payment of the
invoices as shown on the Warrant. The President directed the Clerk to call the

David B. Cook, newly appointed members of the Zoning Board of Appeals and to Mr.
Thomas H. Garland, Jr., newly appointed member of the Playground and Recreation
Board.
At this time President Pahl asked if there were any questions from the audience,
and there were none.

discuss filling the position of Civil Defense Director, he said he has comments
and suggestions in this regard.

The Clerk read a letter dated June 210 1965 from Mrs. James B. DeLill requesting
a variance from the terms of the Zoning Ordinance to permit erection of a six foot
fence around the backyard of her property at 1079 Cedar Lane. Enclosed with said
letter was the required $35 filing fee, and Mrs. DeLill asked that the deposit
for the court reporter be waived.
It was moved by Trustee Mullen and seconded by Trustee Lewis that the Board waive
the court reporter fee for Mrs. DeLill's fence variation.
It was moved by Trustee Garrity that the motion be tabled indefinitely. President
Pahl declared the motion failed for lack of a second.
Trustee Garrity said that as a former Chairman and Secretary of the Zoning Board
it was the desire of the then Zoning Board, and from comments he has heard from
current members, it is their desire, that a court reporter be present at all
zoning hearings for obvious advantages.
The President directed the Clerk to call the roll on the motion and upon the roll
being called the following Trustees answered "AYE" - Chernick, Lewis, Mullen, Zettek;
"NAY" - Coney, Garrity; "ABSENT" - none. Whereupon the President declared the

Manager, Centex Construction Company, Inc, enclosing the proposed plat of subdivision
for Lot 204 in Centex Industrial Park Unit 101 , located south of Arthur Avenue,
east of Route 83, west of Nicholas Boulevard. This was referred to the Plan
Commission.
The Clerk read a letter dated June 15, 1965 from Messrs. Paul Shanyfelt and Alton
M. Broten regarding maintenance problems of the easement between lots 2620 and 2621
on Walnut Lane which easement abuts their properties. They state that if the
Village were to vacate this easement, they would then be able to maintain it and
thereby enhance the appearance of the neighborhood, and they offered to pay `.-he
legal expenses to obtain title to the property.
During discussion of the above letter, it was pointed out that this is not an
easement but is dedicated public land which was originally intended as an access
to the property reserved as a school site and later deeded to the Village as a
"Tots" Park. Village Attorney Rofert stated that the question to the Board is
whether or not this property is of public use and benefit. If it is determined that
it is not, the Board may then dispose of the land.
The above matter was referred to the Plan Commission and Playground and Recr--ation
Board for a recommendation.
Trustee Garrity said that his comments regarding the $20 water deposit were given
to Trustee Coney at the last meeting for his review. Trustee Coney stated that he
has requested information from the Municipal Finance Officers Association and that
he hopes to have a recommendation at the next regular meeting.
It was moved by Trustee Lewis and seconded by Trustee Mullen that the Board adopt
the recommendations of Trustee Mullen in amending the Suburban Building Officials
Conference Building Code and adopting it as the Village's official code for building
In Elk Grove Village.
It was moved by Trustee Mullen and seconded by Trustee Lewis that the foregoing
motion be substituted with a motion to direct the Village Attorney to prepare an
ordinance establishing the Suburban Building Officials Code as the official code
of the Village as amended.
The President was requested by Trustee Mullen for a ruling on the propriety of the
substitute motion.
The President ruled that the Board would vote on the substitute motion.
It was moved by Trustee Garrity and seconded by Trustee Chernick that the ruling
of the chair be overruled. The President directed the Clerk to call the roll on
the motion. Upon the roll being called the following Trustees answered "AYE" -
Chernick, Garrity; "NAY" - Coney, Lewis, Mullen, Zettek; "ABSENT" - none.

The Board briefly discussed the 30" sewer line alone Route 83 and Attorney Hofert
said that either the Village is the owner or can assert ownership of the line.

capacity and Mr. Majoros said that to his knowledge Mr. Fletcher does not yet have
the results of the tests and studies he is conducting to determine the capacity.

President before June 29th to discuss the annexation of the barber shop property
at Landmeier Road and Route 83,
Trustee Lewis reported that Jet Die Casting is installing a water and sewer line
to their property. Attorney Hofert said that the School Board's Attorney has
advised him that the arrangement they have with Jet Die Casting regarding their
property is not contingent on the installation of the sewer line. Mr. Hofert
said that it would seem that the Village should receive the dedication of the
sewer line at this time, and suggested that as a matter of operating procedure
it would be well to get easements and bills of sale for all such installations by
the developer of the residential area. Mr. Majoros said that the Village Engineer
is watching the installation of Jet's linea as to size and construction.
Village Manager said, in reply to questions, that he has not scheduled a meetirl-
of the Board with Tec-Search to discuss the apartment density but will do so w .c,

from them prior to the date of the meeting.
