SEQ. OF THE VILLAGE CODE OF THE VILLAGE OF ELK GROVE VILLAGE. " Members of the audience addressed the Board regarding the acquisition of the Grove Mall; the litigation between the Jewel and the owners of the property; and the motion brought before the Board for consideration. President Gallitano responded the Village is trying to facilitate a settlement between the owners of Grove Mall and the Jewel . The Village does not wish to condemn the property and has maintained that position from the beginning. Condemnation proceedings would take a minimum of two years, therefore, delaying the redevelopment of the Mall . The Jewel wants the lawsuit dropped and is willing to give up their lease if the owners of the Grove Mall will drop the lawsuit. Judith Serfecz Edlund, Grove Mall representative, stated the owners want to work with the Village and feel there is confusion on the part of the public and the owners as to the intentions of the Village in this matter. The owners are ready to sit down any time with anyone to discuss this matter but have not been approached since the December 14, 1993 meeting with the Village and representatives of the Jewel . President Gallitano responded that on December 14, 1993 there was a non productive meeting attended by Village Counsel, Jewel Counsel, and the owners of the Grove Mall, who were not represented by counsel . A proposal was introduced by President Gallitano to the owners of Grove Mall to drop the current lawsuit against Jewel if the Village can deliver the Jewel lease to the owners in 30 days. The President continued that if the Village is unsuccessful within the proposed time than the Village will go after the Jewel directly. Clement Khan, representing the Grove Mall as property manager, approached the Board and stated only counsel for Joe Serfecz and the Jewel Counsel can settle the lawsuit and requested the Village condemn the Jewel lease. The President repeated the Village' s proposal to the Grove Mall owners but changed the timeframe from 30 days to 15 days for delivery of the Jewel lease to the owners. Following further discussion with Mr. Khan, a final offer was proposed by the President to obtain the Jewel lease within 10 days rather than 15 days and if the Village is unsuccessful in obtaining the lease, action against the Jewel would be introduced at the next Village Board meeting. The President responded to the concerns and comments of Kirk Palmetier, 1215 Dover Lane; Nancy Pietryla, 905 Creighton; and Sophie Basile of 121 Tottenham regarding the redevelopment plans and the condition of the property at the Grove Mall. 5 06-14-94 David Mann questioned what would become of the property if taken over by the Village and voiced concern that the property would become a public property. President Gallitano stated the property will be developed retail/commercial with as many town square type features as possible. The Village will not maintain ownership of the site. President Gallitano responded to inquiries from George Fauntas; Dave Pollack, 233 Yarmouth; and Alice White, Manager of the Village Grove Apartments; and Tim Peters, 223 Victoria Lane. President Gallitano stated, in response to questions by Don Waddell, 900 Brantwood, that if the owners of Grove Mall accept the Village' s proposal, redevelopment of the property could begin immediately. Charlotte Lewis, 515 W. Elk Grove Boulevard and Phil Haverland, 38 Avon, also addressed the Board with comments regarding the Grove Mall and Village land acquisition.
