Chernick, Village Trustee P. Rettberg, Village Trustee Absent: None Staff: R. Farrell, Administrative Assistant F. Engelbrecht, Police Chief Others: Richard Riely, Ameritech James Leahy, Ameritech Linda Hoffmann, Cellular Communications Bob Nelson, GTE Airphone John Meyers, Plan Commissioner Cellular Towers & Antennae Trustee Czarnik noted the results of the staff report which surveyed other communities and their guidelines in considering tower and antennae requests. The results indicated that other communities consider these requests on a case by case basis as a special or conditional use as in Elk Grove. Trustee Czarnik suggested that the Village look at developing a policy to encourage or require co-location of antennae on one tower or having the Village build a tower and then renting space to potential users. There was discussion on the possible need to get expert advise to develop a policy and obtain a copy of Elgin's zoning ordinance which was recently revised to address numerous tower requests. In addition, it was mentioned that the Business Liaison Council might take an interest in this subject. The consensus of the Committee was as follows: - Obtain a copy of Elgin's zoning ordinance; - Have staff do a survey of existing towers and tall buildings in the Village; and - Have staff secure the advise of an expert in the field to provide input on developing guidelines for future tower and antennae placement.
