4. REPORT OF THE MAYOR AND BOARD OF TRUSTEES
Mayor Johnson stated he was very proud to announce there was going to be a bond issue
addressed at tonight's Board Meeting. Bonds are going to be sold on July 1, 2010.
During tough economic times and with steps the Village Board has taken with staff to put
Elk Grove in the best position possible and looking forward to the future, Elk Grove
Village has received a AAA bond rating.
Elk Grove Village is one of only nineteen communities out of one hundred fifty six
municipalities that have Moody's bond rating within the State of Illinois to receive the
highest AAA rating. There are three thousand two hundred sixty two municipalities in
the country with Moody*s bond rating. Elk Grove Village is one of two hundred three
with a AAA rating. The AAA rating saves the Village money. The better your bond
rating; the better interest rate you receive. Mayor Johnson noted the thirteen million in
bonds will be officially voted on and passed under the Consent Agenda. This is the
second largest bond bid the Village has ever done. It will be used for road improvements,
sewer and water improvements and culvert improvements in the Business Park.
The Village is taking advantage of the government buy down program. The interest rate
on these bonds is over 6% but with the federal government buy down, the interest rate
will be 4.01%. Because of the Build America Bonds and the Village's AAA rating, we
are saving over 2% interest.
On June 3, 2010 Mayor Johnson met with the Chamber of Commerce and gave a State of
the Village Address. Mayor Johnson thanked the press that attended the event. Mayor
Johnson stated he was very honest and candid with the business community. The Village
is going through tough times but as the bond rating companies verified today with our
AAA bond rating, we are taking the right steps to prepare ourselves for the future.
On June 11, 2010 Mayor Johnson, Trustee Prochno, Trustee Czarnik and Trustee Franke
worked at the Relay for Life for the American Cancer Society. There was a great turnout
and for the first time in many years there was no rain.

Manager Gary Parrin as Mr. Rummel's Alternate Director to the Abraham Lincoln

On July ) 31" and August 1" the fifth annual Alexian Brothers Tour of Elk Grove will

The Chicago Blackhawks goal scoring horn and music began to play. The Mayor made
note that six days ago the Chicago Blackhawks won the Lord Stanley Cup. Mayor
Johnson announced the Lord Stanley Cup is coming to Elk Grove Village to be in the
Hometown Parade. The parade is Saturday, June 19, 2010 at 6:00 p.m. The parade
begins at Elk Grove Boulevard and Tonne and travels west to Lions Drive. Mayor
Johnson thanked Elk Grove resident and President of the Chicago Blackhawks Mr. John
McDonough for bringing the Stanley Cup. The Cup will be on a float which will travel
slowly enough for people on the sidelines to take pictures. This may be the only time the
Lord Stanley Cup will ever be in the northwest suburbs. In addition to thanking Mr. John
McDonough, Mayor Johnson thanked Rocky Wirtz and the entire Blackhawks
organization for choosing Elk Grove to be the first community to have a public
appearance with the Stanley Cup.
The parade is tied into Rotaryfest. Rotaryfest is a great festival for the community. All
the profits from Rotaryfest go back into the community. Mayor Johnson encouraged
everyone to come out on Saturday, June 19, 2010 for the parade, Rotaryfest and ,
fireworks.
Trustee Franke announced another CERT (Citizen Emergency Response Team) class
graduated last Sunday. It was the sixth class to graduate. Sign-up is starting for the
seventh class which will be held September 10, 11 and 18, 2010. The class teaches you a
lot about how to help out in your neighborhood, traffic control and how to help your
family in an emergency. Anyone interested in signing up should contact the Fire
Department at 847-734-8025. This summer CERT will be helping out with Rotaryfest
and the bike race.
Trustee Lissner stated that he and Trustee Petri and several members of the Police
Department attended the DARE graduation at Grove Junior High. There was a large
enthusiastic group of kids who graduated. The two DARE officers, Officer Carl Sabo
and Officer Ed Thomas do a great job interacting with the kids.
2 VBM 6-15-10
Trustee Lissner reported that early yesterday morning Trustee Petri, Trustee Feichter and
himself met with two representatives from the Commission on Accreditation for Law
Enforcement Agencies. They represent the group which gives accreditation to our Police
Department. They were very interesting gentlemen. One was from Houston, Texas; he is
the Police Chief at the University of Houston. The other gentleman was from Alberta,
Canada. Trustee Lissner is confident the Police Department did well and thanked Police
Chief Schmidt for inviting them.
Trustee Czarnik announced the Frank J. Czamik Scholarship Committee met and this
year due to the response of so many wonderful donors and golfers they are able to
distribute four$1,000.00 scholarships. Winners will be notified shortly. Trustee Czarnik
thanked Elk Grove and the many participants for their generosity. This year's golf outing
will be held on Sunday, October 3, 2010. There is an 8:00 a.m. shotgun start and
everyone is welcome.
Trustee Feichter announced that he recently returned from a two week trip to one of the
poorest nations on earth. Trustee Feichter was in the country of Malawi working with
teachers. Malawi is the country where Madonna has adopted two children. Madonna is
building a school in the Capital City of Lilongwe.
Trustee Feichter stated he traveled throughout the entire country and met with dozens of
teachers to try and help them. Things are very difficult in this Country. They are a
struggling democracy. They just received their independence from Britain in the 1960's,
they had a virtual dictatorship until the 1980's and just got their constitution in place in
the 1990's. They have terrible health problems. Forty-two percent of the population
there is fifteen years old or under. Only 2% of the people in the country are over the age
of sixty-five. They have a massive aids epidemic along with malaria, typhoid and
numerous other diseases.
It was an exceptional and heart rendering experience to meet with the wonderful teachers
and help them work on democracy education. The teachers have very little to work with
and their class sizes are between 70 and 140. The Department of Education in the United
States is promoting a Democracy Program to help countries like Malawi that are having
problems and struggling. The program helps instill democratic values so they don't lose
the democracy they have. Trustee Feichter stated it was a very emotional experience. He
traveled from one end of the country to the other and everywhere he went the people he
met were very kind. Malawi is known as the warm heart of Africa.
Trustee Prochno thanked Trustee Feichter and stated she did not know if she would have
the strength and courage to travel that far to spread the word of democracy.
On Monday, May 31, 2010 the Village had its thirteenth annual Memorial Day
Observation in front of the Elk Grove Park District Pavilion. There was a wonderful
turnout. The ceremony started outside and after about five minutes the storm sirens went
off and everyone grabbed their chairs and the Observation was moved inside to the main
gym of the Park District Pavilion. In a matter of fifteen minutes everything was set up
indoors, everyone had a seat and the ceremony went off without a hitch. Trustee Prochno
thanked everyone who attended and remembered Memorial Day and for the wonderful
way everyone handled the situation.
Trustee Prochno reminded everyone that the Little Boots Rodeo is taking place on
Sunday, June 27, 2010 at Prince of Peace Church at the corner of Devon Avenue and
Arlington Heights Road from 11:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. The Gary Lewis and the
Playboys free concert will be Saturday, June 26, 2010 in the Village Green.
Trustee Prochno acknowledged that we have a professional woman soccer player living
in Elk Grove Village. Elise Weber is playing on a woman's professional soccer team in
Chicago. Elise was born and raised in Elk Grove Village. Her parents, Bill and Terry
Weber are long time residents of our community. Elise played soccer for St. Viator's
High School. She was recruited for professional soccer right out of college. The team's
name is the Chicago Red Stars and they play at Toyota Park. Trustee Prochno
3 vBM 6-15-10
encouraged anyone who has some time and wants to cheer on one of Elk Grove Village's
own stars to go watch a Red Stars game.
Mayor Johnson made note that we have a second professional woman soccer play in Elk
Grove Village. Jennifer Buczkowski plays for a professional team in St. Louis. Trustee
Prochno stated she knew Jennifer had played at both the college and national level but
did not know that she was playing professionally. Mayor Johnson stated the last he knew
she was playing for the St. Louis team.
Mayor Johnson commented to Trustee Prochno that we may want to look into holding the
Memorial Day Observation indoors from now on. He asked if the Committee could
please look into it. The Mayor commented not only because of the rain but there have
been years when there has been a heat situation. The ceremony runs very smoothly
indoors and the Park District can still have the fitness center open. Trustee Prochno
commented that members of the fitness center came out onto the walking track to view
the ceremony this year. Trustee Prochno thanked the Elk Grove Park District for their
quick and efficient response in offering their indoor space.
Trustee Prochno and Mayor Johnson went to the podium. Trustee Prochno announced
three scholarships were going to be awarded this evening. They are the Lions/Lioness
scholarships that have been provided through the profits from the 501h anniversary house
raffle. Profits from the raffle were distributed by the Mayor and Board to local
organizations. The Lions/Lioness Clubs were given a lump sum of money. Trustee
Prochno became Chairperson of a Committee which decided the money would be used
for scholarships. This is the last year scholarships will be issued. There are three
$1,000.00 scholarships to be awarded. There were over eighteen applications. All the
essays were wonderful. It is unbelievable to see what young people of our community
are doing to make this the exceptional community.
Trustee Prochno invited Barb Lahtinen. President of the Elk Grove Lions Club and Ellen
Peacock, President of the Elk Grove Lioness Club to join her and Mayor Johnson at the
podium. Trustee Prochno thanked the Committee which consisted of herself as
Chairperson, Lee Garr and Ed Ruskowski of the Elk Grove Lions Club and Jeanine Noto
of the Elk Grove Lioness Club.
The first scholarship was awarded to Jessica Taylor. Trustee Prochno read and presented
Jessica with a certificate and a check. Jessica stated she was home schooled and will be
attending Grace College in Indiana. She will be studying Art Education. Catherine Reff
was awarded the second scholarship. Trustee Prochno presented Catherine with a
certificate and a check. Catherine stated she attended Conant High School and in the fall
she will be attending Elmhurst College to pursue a career as a nurse. The third

certificate and check. Kayla stated she attended Elk Grove High School and will be
