for the office development at the southeast corner of
Devon Avenue and Arlington Heights Road.
MUNICIPAL BUILDING EXPANSION
The Village Manager advised the Board that
Department Heads will be reviewing the SBL Space
Acquisition Report due to the amount of time that has
elapsed since it was submitted by the consultant. Depart-
mental office space requirements will be forwarded to the
Village Board. Will look at impact of removing the Circuit
Court to determine if the amount of space can be reduced in
the building addition. Will also review potential for rent-
ing offices to JAWA.
The Village President noted that the plans should
be completed as quickly as possible in order to begin con-
struction in early summer.

WINDEMERE SUBDIVISION
The Village Manager is to send a survey to all
residents in Windemere to determine whether they would
support the posting of signs prohibiting:
- No Right Turns from Nerge Road onto
Cutter Lane during the evening rush
hours ;
- No Left Turns from Plum Grove Road onto
Oriole Drive during morning rush hours .
CUTTING OF COUNTY ROW
Consensus is to have Village personnel mow weeds
on County ROW, which would be in addition to the County' s
mowing twice a growing season. Village personnel will
also trim along fences between the sidewalk and fence.
If owners of vacant properties do not cut property
upon notice by the Village, the Village is to cut the
property and invoice the owner. If payment is not received
a lien is to be placed on the property.

April 16 and will prepare a report for distribution to
the Village Board.
WATER SUPPLY - CONTINGENCY PLAN
On the 4-23-85 VB Agenda the Village will authorize
the lowering of Well Nos . 6 , 9 and 11 since those wells will
be retained and kept operational after the acquisition of
Lake Michigan water. This cost will be $43 ,000 . Staff is
to request Layne-Western to amend its retainer proposal for
the lowering of the remaining two ( 2 ) wells - #5 and #13 .
