Moved by Trustee Petri Seconded by Trustee Czarnik VOICE VOTE - Unanimous Approval (5-0) MOTION CARRIED 4. MAYOR&BOARD OF TRUSTEES' REPORT - Mayor Johnson- Mayor Johnson attended the following meetings: • February 15 - Customer, Service, Planning Meeting with the Tollway • February 21 - Ribbon Cutting at Royals, 654 Meacham • February 22 - Tollway Board Meeting • February 24 - Community Character Coalition Carnival of Exceptional Character • February 27 - Suburban O'Hare Commission Airport Update As noted in the papers, Chicago is looking at an $8.5 billion dollar new terminal deal. With the $11.6 billion dollars that was put into the runway at this point and add the $8.5 billion for the gates that are needed,you come up with a total of$20.1 billion dollars. SOC stated fifteen years ago,with the analysis from JDA, that the plan would be a $20 billion dollar plan as opposed to a $6 billion dollar plan that Chicago had claimed. SOC was right with their numbers back then and it is still a $20 billion dollar project. The last runway will be done in 2020 and the planes will go right down Devon Avenue. We will work very hard with Chicago to try to keep the impact to a minimum. Today at SOC,we worked with a team of experts to put together a plan for the Fly Quiet Program. We are hopeful that Chicago will continue to work with us as we move along with this project. As for the Western Access, Chicago made it clear that it is a minimum of 10-15 years before it comes close to reality. Weather Events The Busse Dam did a great job during the recent rain event. The frozen ground wasn't absorbing the 4 Y2" of rain that occurred plus the snow melt but the Village roads remained open. Three years ago everything would have been under water so the Dam worked exactly as planned. The Village had 9 straight days of snow and the Village services were used as follows: • 18.3" of snow accumulation • 20,000 miles of plowing operations for the 9 days of snow removal • 1,700 hours of manpower • 1,200 tons of salt used The kind of work and effort that goes into plowing the streets is not easy when it snows 9 straight days and we thank Public Works for their efforts. Vehicle Stickers Page 1 of 6 Mayor Johnson announced that there are two main reasons why the Village required vehicle stickers. One was to raise money for road repair costs and the second was easy identification for the Police Department. With today's technology, police vehicles have a built in system that can read license plates instantly. The Village is doing very well financially and the Village Board has decided that effective immediately,we will no longer require the residents to purchase vehicle stickers. As part of the 2025 Plan, the Village paid $60 million dollars in Bonds without raising taxes. The Village will still collect from the business community to help pay for the wear and tear on the roads in the business park. There will be a formal ordinance on the next agenda to finalize everything. TRUSTEE REPORTS: Trustee Prochno - The residents have done a wonderful job keeping the sidewalks shoveled. Please keep up the good work in the event that there is another snowstorm. The Community Character Coalition had their third Carnival of Good Character on February 24th at the Park District Pavilion. It was a wonderful event with over 1,050 people in attendance. Many organizations within the community sponsored a booth and there were many family activities. This is a free event for the community and everyone working is done on a volunteer basis.

Motion to have the Attorney prepare the necessary documents to add a distillery in the I-1 Zoned Page 4 of 6 District. Moved by Trustee Lissner Seconded by Trustee Czarnik VOICE VOTE MOTION CARRIED - Unanimous Approval (5-0) The final item under the Plan Commission pertains to a Special Location Parking Plan petitioned by Blue Waters, a trucking construction firm located at 1520 Pratt Boulevard to allow parking across the street in a vacant lot at 1505 Pratt Boulevard. The Plan Commission has reviewed the Special Location Parking Plan and it was unanimously recommended for approval. Mayor stated that the Village is not allowing individual lots to be used for public truck parking. This is more cars than trucks and it is tied to an existing business. It was noted that this was for a Special Use and that the Village is not changing the parking regulations. This is something that has been done before on a Special Use Permit for other businesses. It is a very narrow scope to allow this parking plan and this business does fit within the requirements. Motion to have the Attorney prepare the necessary documents to allow a Special Location Parking Plan for property located at 1520 Pratt Boulevard to allow parking in a vacant lot at 1505 Pratt Boulevard.
