Dir. Zettek was invited to the Board of Health Meeting to discuss some items that had been troubling them over the. past year. The proposed Tanning Booth Ordinance was one item. They were dis- turbed that Mr. Willis disagreed with the Board of Health's proposed ordinance and their rationale for the necessity for such an ordinance. Mr. Zettek said this ordinance has been given to the Board of Trustees and they will decide whether or not it will be adopted. Another item is the proposed Congregate Senior Housing Ordinance. Mr. Zettek said this was in J.P.Z. for review and would not be acted upon until J.P.Z. had completed their work on it. The question of the Park District jurisdiction was also discussed. . Currently the Park District is autonomous and is not serviced by the Village unless they request it. The Health Department does not inspect their food service facilities. Mr. Zettek said the Village would- not interfere with the Park District unless a situation would arise that endangered the health, safety and welfare of residents. They could meet with the Park District and "force the issue" if a critical situation should arise. Mr. Zettek said- he would talk with Mr. Willis about the discomfort between him and the Board of Health and would also speak with Dir. Petri regarding the proposed Senior Congregate Housing Ordinance. The Board of Health thanked Mr. Zettek for coming to the meeting to discuss their problems with him.

Low Cost Health Care The Low Cost Primary Health Care Task Force has hired a director that will be housed at the Alexian Brothers Medical Center Corporate Offices in Elk Grove Village. Previous plans were to place him in the Cook County Department of Public Health Maywood Offices. The ABMC facility is much larger than the Cook County facility. B. Congregate Housing Already discussed above. C. -Senior Impact Study The Impact Study has not been started. The Board of Health would like to approach Rich Sewell, the new director of the Low Cost Health Task Force about the study. Since he will be in close proximity and has access to information needed for the study, they would like to see if they can contract with him to develop the impact study. D. Proposed Tanning Booth Ordinance Already discussed above. E. Proposed Adult Day Care Ordinance Two model ordinances for Adult Day Care facilities were passed out to the Board of Health. * Pat McHale asked board members to review them carefully and be ready to discuss them at the July meeting. F. Proposed Rental Housing Ordinance The Board of Health discussed the proposed Rental Housing Ordinance. They looked at the current Schaumburg Ordinance which has been added to their housing maintenance code. Ray Dean moved that the Board of Health favors a multi family dwelling unit licensing - rental ordinance and would welcome meeting with J.P.Z. to further discuss this ordinance. The motion was seconded by Dr. Kelly and was passed unanimously. II Routine Reports A. Coordinator's Report Immunization Clinic - Alexian Brothers Medical Center and the Elk Grove Village Health Department are having monthly Immunization Clinics. They are being held on the third Tuesday of each month. Hours have been shortened to accommodate regular nursing hours at the hospital. All other procedures remain the same. 65 children were given 115 shots at the May 14, 1987 clinic. Minutes - Boa of Health June 2, 1987 - page 3 Blood Drive - The Blood Drives will be held at the new. Village Hall addition. They will be held in- the Lower Level Meeting Room. Carroll Square The association papers have been legally filed and will be operational very soon. This should make the Health Department's job much easier since the association will have the power to rectify problems on their own rather than depending on the Village for enforcement.
