The meeting was called to order in the Elk Grove Village Municipal Building
by Trustee Tosto at 7:06 p.m. on Tuesday, July 29, 7986. The purpose of the meeting was
to discuss o proposed parking lot and driveway maintenance ordinance; proposed sidewalks
along Nicholas Boulevard between Pratt and Londmeier Rd; and, the proposed agreement
for engineering services for the Nicholas Boulevard Improvement.
7. PARKING LOT & DRIVEWAY MAINTENANCE ORDINANCE
Mr. Boffice distributed draft copies of proposed regulations
covering the maintenance of pavement, striping and signing:
on private parking lots and driveways.
As the Committee reviewed the land uses to which the
Ordinoncewould apply, concerns were voicedover the
Village's ability to require maintenance of private, undedi-
cated roads such as Boardwalk, Pohl and Gloucester. The
Committee directed Mr. Boffice to amend the Ordinance to
include such private streets.
The Committee continued discussing the Ordinance by re-
viewing the pavement criteria which represented a hazard.
It was the concensus of the Committee to modify item one
to reduce the area required for a pothole from one square
yard to one square foot.
The Committee also recommended that the time to comply
under the Notification and Compliance section be rewritten
to provide for: 7) a thirty calendar day time limit to make
a permanent repair during the construction season; 2) a
thirty calendar day time limit to make a temporary repair
between construction seasons; 3) to odd a section which
would require emergency repairs within twenty-four hours
for extremely hazardous pavement damage; and, 4) to allow
extensions to the time limits under special circumstances
and demonstration of undue hardship.

Discussion ensued over the remaining maintenance
criteria relative to striping and signing. Trustee
Gallitano indicated that it would be difficult to
define "visibility" of pavement striping without
incorporating criteria relative to the fading of
the point. The Committee felt that the language
should be revised in such a manner so as to require
striping to be redone at a point in time when it was
not readily visible by traffic. Mr. Boffice was ins-
tructed to contact Mr. Knickerbocker to determine
appropriate language which would serve the Com-
mittee's desire for both striping and signing.
2. NICHOLAS BOULEVARD
The Committee reviewed the engineering drawing for
the Nicholas Boulevard Improvement relative to pro-
posed sidewalks. The plans indicate a 5 foot wide side-
walk placed to provide on 17 foot 5 inch parkway on
each side of the street. After discussing sidewalk
criteria with Mr. Boffice, the Committee concurred in
the installation of the sidewalks as proposed, but
reducing the required width to four feet as provided
by the Village's Subdivision Control Ordinance.
The Committee then discussed the Village Engineers
memo of July 21, 1986 to Mr. Willis recommending that
the Village enter into a contract with Donohue & Assoc-
iotes, Inc.
Of special concern was the proposed $8,692 drainage
study which the Village Engineer hod recommended be
included. Discussion continued relative to the pros and
cons of the study concluding with the Committees agree-
ment to include the drainage study in the agreement.
The Committee unanimously recommended the following
relative to Nicholas Boulevard.
a) To en ter in to a Contract with
Donohue and Associates, inclu-
ding the detaileddroinage study
for a cost not to exceed $40,327;
b) To provide for 4 foot wide side-
walks on both sides of the street
with an 71 foot 5 inch parkway,
C) To construct the pavement to a
width of 48 feet from edge of
pavement to edge of pavement;
and,
