4. MAYOR&BOARD OF TRUSTEES' REPORT - Mayor Johnson provided an update on
recent meetings that were attended on behalf of the Village.

With reference to the many vacant stores in the Village,the Mayor mentioned a recent
article from the Chicago Tribune. The article listed 12 company chains that have closed
over 1,366 stores recent due to the increase of online sales. We are thankful for the type of
businesses that we have in Elk Grove Village. In FY'2016,the Village had a $95M worth of
construction value in the business park and collected $1.3M in permit fees. In FY'2017 a
quarter-billion dollars were invested and we collected almost$3M in fees. Our Business
Park is churning because we are more of a manufacturing/industrial based community.
