It was pointed out by Trustees Malonek that it has been the policy
in the past to submit such expenses for payment.
Trustee Keith stated that he attended this outing and dinner because
he felt it was important to meet with owners and representatives of
the plants in the Industrial Park, and that he will continue to attend
as often as he can whether or not the Village pays the bill .

Trustee Malonek requested the Board deviate from the agenda for a
report regarding the drainage ditch on Elk Grove Boulevard, since he
expected to be out of town at the next regular meeting. President

read a report concerning the history of, and problems connected with
the drainage ditch. Trustee Malonek said the several prominent
I. companies have been requested for estimates on covering the ditch
I with oval shaped steel pipe which estimates range from .;)107,242 to
! $275,000. Trustee Malonek recommended (1) that the ditch be covered;
(2,) that a referendum vote be taken on this issue to decide if a bond
issue should pass; (3) that the bond issue be paid off from General
' Obligation bonds coupled with Motor Fuel Tax excess funds . (This
I report, in its entirety, will be on file in the Clerk ' s Office . )
I
Engineer Fletcher said that he has plans and estimates of cost
' (prepared 2 or 3 years ago ) of covering the entire length of the
I ditch and of various sections; and that it was his recollection
I that the $107,242 figure was the estimate to cover one of the sections ;
j and that the total cost was )450,000. He said he did not have the
exact information readily available since he did not know the subject
would be discussed at this meeting. Mr . Fletcher also said that the
State is willing to pay one half of the cost from Motor Fuel Tax funds .
I Following a brief discussion, it was moved by Trustee Dillon and
seconded by Trustee Lewis that the Board direct the Village Engineer
I to prepare a report on various methods of covering the drainage ditch
on Elk Grove Boulevard, and to prepare estimates of cost of same, and
to obtain a report from the State as to how much money they are willing
to release from Motor Fuel Tax funds for this project; and that the
i Village Attorney be directed to take the necessary legal steps in
conjunction therewith to have a referendum on the question of
expenditure to cover said drainage ditch.
I
Trustee Keith objected to the expenditure for the covering of the
ditch. He said that homes are built along Salt Creek and that it
presents the same potential danger as the Elk Grove Boulevard ditch.

Mr. Mikkelsen, Secretary of the Plan Commission, reported that the Plan
Commission attended the July 23rd meeting held by the State Department
of Aeronautics for the purpose of discussing a proposed ordinance reg-
ulating tonin.- of areas near airports . The Plan Commission recommended
that the' Village Board strenuously object to this proposed zoning ord-
inance on the grounds that it violates home rule, limits the type of
structures in certain areas , and would require State approval of build-
ing plans, plantings and fences . The Plan Commission further recommend-
ed (1) that the Village Board submit the proposed ordinance to the
Zoning Commission for a proposed amendment; and (2 ) that the Village

State regarding the collection of fines and disposition of cases heard
before the Police Magistrate; and he accounts for the funds to the

Trustee Lewis read the following statement : "The Village Board
has received information from the Chicago Magnetic Wire that they
have ordered one piece of control equipment for one new oven which
the manufacturer will guarantee to eliminate 99.80 of the odor
problem. This equipment will take twelve weeks to install and
evaluate . We wish the Special Citizens Committee assisting the
Village Board to observe and evaluate the efficiency of this
installation. It is our thought and firm conviction that the
procedure for testing will be decided jointly by the manufacturer,
Village Board, and Special Citizens Committee . If this does not
prove to be satisfactory to the extent of eliminating 99.8/ of the
odor, the Village Board will then take additional steps to eliminate
I� this problem from our Village ."
j
Trustee Keith read a statement, acm which follows : "The
fact that Chicago Magnet Wire Company is installing control equip-
ment is welcome news , however, it is my personal opinion that they
are approximately eight units and six months late in taking action.
This is not a new solution to Mr. Naegle, since he has previously
indicated that catalytic action at 12000 would eliminate the odor .
This fact, plus Mr. Naegle 's personal assurance during my visit to
-5- Reg. 7-25-63
their Chicago location last year, that all but possibly two units I
would be equipped with controls before the move to Elk Grove Village,
makes this action appear to be an attempt to dramatize action which
is merely in keeping with direct promises made .
Furthermore, assurances that they did not contemplate any odor
problem, appear to be facetious, based upon Mr. Naegle 's statement
at the zoning hearing that Chicago Magnet Wire made extensive
studied of the wind and air currents . Was this to determine which
direction their flag would flow? No! The obvious fact is that I
this statement along with weighty evidence that most magnet wire
operations have odor problems precludes the possibility that they
did not realize the probability that they were taking a calculated
risk in making this move .
If Chicago Magnet Wire is sincere, I, feel that if this solution
(which they have accepted as the method of eliminating this odor )
fails, they should agree to close down their operation in Elk Grove
Village as soon as they can find a suitable area for relocation,
I think that it is the responsibility of Bennett and Kahnweiler
and Centex to make such action possible by cooperating in the
purchase and resale of the present location so that Chicago Magnet
Wire does not suffer any serious financial loss in undertaking such
a move. This solution may appear to be wishful thinking, however,
if everyone is .as sincere in their desire to correct a serious error
as they have stated, this matter could be settled on a fair and
equitable basis for all. "
The Clerk read a progress report dated July 25, 1963, to the Board
of Trustees from Chicago Magnet Wire Corporation which report
covered nine steps now being taken to control the odor problem,
and attached to the report were copies of the purchase orders to
Oxy-Catalyst and Catalytic Combustion for proto type units and the
guarantee from Oxy.!-Catalyst.
g ,(This report and its attachments will
be on file in the Clerk' s Office. ) .
The Clerk reported receipt of notice (1 ) from the Zoning Board of
Appeals of Cook County stating that there will be a hearing at

Division of Highways of Motor Fuel Tax Allotment for the month of
June, 1963 in the amount of $5,553.04•
The Clerk read the following letter dated July 19, 1963 from Fir,
I Evan W. Stebbins, Agent for Centex Construction Company and its
subsidiaries,: "Please be advised that Centex Construction Company
i and its subsidiaries fully understand that the Village Board' s
approval of Unit 13 of the Industrial Park does not constitute a
waiver on the part of the Village to the enforcement of any portion
of the Subdivision Control Ordinance as to requirements of curb and
gutters along any street or road in Unit 13, nor a waiver of any
other provision of the Subdivision Control Ordinance . ".
! The following ordinance was presented for first reading: "An
Ordinance Prohibiting Parking on Victoria Lane between Elk Grove
Boulevard and Grosvener Lane from 6:00 A.M. to 1:00 P.M. Sundays . "
i
Copies were distributed of a proposed ordinance amending the

the Village Clerk to call the roll. Upon the roll being called the
following Trustees answered "PRESENT" - Dillon, Keith, Lewis,
Malonek, Mullen, Zettek; "ABSENT" - none.
Trustee Dillon stated that the Board has been withholding action on
resurfacing streets north of Oakton to learn whether or not proposed
State legislation was enacted which would permit a holdover of Motor
Fuel Tax funds for a specific project. Trustee Dillon said that
Trustee Lewis has learned that this legislation did not pass .
Trustee Dillon said that it is the practice 'of the State to
occasionally borrow from the Motor Fuel Tax monies, and there is
the question as to when and if this money will be repaid, Since
the money that is alloted to Elk Grove Village is money that she
i residents have paid in taxes, it was his recommendation that the
money be used, and that the resurfacing job north of Oakton be
completed at an estimated cost of $29,000 for Evergreen Street,
Briarwood Lane and Forest Lane. Trustee Dillon further stated
jthat there is a time factor involved in getting this work done this
year since approval from the State is required, bids have to be
I` requested, and there is an October 15th deadline for this type of
construction.
i
It was moved by Trustee Dillon and seconded by Trustee Zettek that.
the Board authorize the Village Engineer to draft the proper papers
for State approval of 22 inches of paving on Forest Lane and Eve-r-
2
green Street between Oakton and Higgins Roads, and Briarigocd Lane
,I
between Forest Lane and Wildwood Road.
1 Trustee Keith questioned this action and said that a bridge across
Clearmont would be more beneficial to a greater number of people .
President Gibson said that it was his recollection that Centex
Construction Company has plans to construct such a bridge .
The President directed the Clerk to call the roll on the motion and
upon the roll being called the following Trustees answered "AYE" -
IDillon, Keith, Lewis, Malonek, Mullen, Zettek; "NAY" - none;
"ABSENT" - none . idhereupon the President declared the motion_
carried.
j Trustee Malonek reported as follows on proposed State legislation :
j House Bill 220 - providing that a i(,unicipality would not be
liable for personal injuries sustained on streets
or sidewalks unless negligence was a factor.
4 This Bill failed.
Senate Bi11272 - limitinthe liability of a municipality not to
exceed 10,000 for damage to persons or property
I arising from defective streets or sidewalks .
This Bill was tabled on June 12th.
Trustee Lewis stated that next week he will have a report on all the
Ibills which on June 13th, he either recommended be supported or
opposed.
-7- Reg. 7-25-63
At this time Mr.* T. R,
Tyrell, objector to the variance requested
by Mr. W. Serini, and Mr. K. Meyer, Attorney for Mr. Serini spoke
to the Board on the questions involved in the recent hearing con-
ducted by the Zoning Board for a variattn from the Zoning Ordinance
requested by Mr. Serini to construct a fence beyond the building
set back line.
Attorney Hofert stated that to avoid any conflict, legislation ;
regulating the construction of fences should be confined to the
Zoning Ordinance. However, in this case the Village 's Zoning
Ordinance was passed, and subsequently the Municipal Code was
adopted which Code contains Section 24.028 providing that fences
shall not be constructed beyond the building set back line .
Simultaneously, the Zoning Board of Appeals was established by i
Section 7.304 and there is reference to the regulatory powers of I
the Zoning Board over the Zoning Ordinance . The passage of Section
24.028 had as its effect the purpose in mind of limiting the action
of the Zoning Board of Appeals so as a variance could not be granted
by the Zoning Board if it were offensive to the terms of Section
24.028. Because of the nature of the variation requested by Mr.
Serini there is a serious question as to whether the Zoning Board
had the power to pass on this question. As to the conduct of the
hearing as reported by Mr. Tyrell, Attorney Hofert said that there
is nothing to be gained by going into a public discussion on this
subject; that every attempt was made by the Zoning Board to do a
job as well as the job required; and that under the circumstances
the Zoning Board had no reason to think .they were acting other than
within their powers because of the conflict by the subsequent
passage of the Municipal Code which reserved this particular power
of regulation to the Village Board.
Attorney Hofert said there are certain procedures he will recommend
to cover any future occurences such as this, and that he will send
I� a memorandum to the Board outlining his recommendations .
It was moved by Trustee Zettek and seconded by Trustee Lewis that
the Board -instruct the Building Department to not issue a permit to
Mr. GJ. Serini, 500 Magnolia Lane, for construction of a fence beyond
the minimum building set back line, until further notice . The
President directed the Clerk to call the roll on the motion and
upon the roll being called the following Trustees answered
i Dillon, Keith, Lewis, Malonek, Mullen, Zettek; "NAY" - none;
"ABSENT" - none. Whereupon the President declared the motion
carried.
The question of Mr. R. Mesic 's request for permission to erect a
garage over the easement adjacent to his property will be discussed
at the next regular meeting.
Trustee Dillon questioned the Board as to the preferred action in
this case : Mr. Jack Andrews, Street Department Foreman, has
! accumulated eight days overtime; and Trustee Dillon said he is in
a position now in which he does not wish to give him the time off,
and suggested that he either be given (1) overtime pay for the
eight days, or (2) overtime pay for 5 days and the 3 days to be
taken when the pressure of work is not too great.
j Following a brief discussion, it was moved by Trustee Dillon and
seconded by Trustee Mullen that the Board authorize the payment of
eight days of accrued overtime to Mr: Jack Andrews in lieu of eight
days compensatory time off. The President directed the Clerk to
call the roll on the motion and upon the roll being called the
following Trustees answered "AYE" - Dillon, Keith, Lewis, Malonek,
Mullen, Zettek; "NAY" - none; "ABSENT" - none. Whereupon the
President declared the motion carried.
Trustee Lewis reported that the Judiciary Committee recommends the
-8- Reg. 7=25-63
adoption of a tentative ordinance to provide certain general
requirements applicable to all manufacturing districts exclud-
ing Section A - from this ordinance. The Zoning Board held j
a hearing on June 18, 1963 regarding this proposed amendment to
the Zoning Ordinance and at the July 18th meeting recommended its
acceptance by the Village Board. )
Trustee Dillon explained that the Committee would like to refer to
the Zoning Commission Section A - 4 of this ordinance for clarif-
ication of intent, but .that it was not the wish to hold up passage
of the entire ordinance while this section was being clarified.
It was moved by Trustee Lewis and seconded by Trustee Mullen, that
the Board adopt Ordinance No.302 entitled "AN ORDINANCE TO AN—LL-ND
THE PRESENT ZONING ORDINANCE OF ELK GROVE VILLAGE BY PROVIDING
CERTAIN GENERAL REQUIREMENTS APPLICABLE TO ALL MANUFACTURING
DISTRICTS", excluding Section A-4 from said Ordinance .

purpose of screening those applicants for handling the Control Desk

Trustee Zettek reported a request from the owner of the Mr. Edwards
restaurant at Landmeier Road and Route - 83 for permission to use the
burglar alarm panel installed in the Police Department Control Room.
It was the agreement of the Board thatthis request not be granted
inasmuch as the restaurant is not located within the corporate
limits of the Village.
Trustee Zettek requested information as to when the Zoning Commission
would have the comprehensivezoning ordinance ready for presentation
to the Village Board. Trustee Lewis said he will contact the
Commission to learn what progress is being made, and when the
ordinance can be expected.
