4. MAYOR& BOARD OF TRUSTEES' REPORT - On February 4, 2016 sixty second grade
students from Rupley School met with Mayor Johnson and toured the Fire and Police
Departments. Coffee with the Mayor and Board took place on Saturday, February 6, 2016.
Mayor Johnson advised Village staff of resident concerns that were discussed at the Coffee
and staff is looking into the issues.
The City of Chicago announced last week that they have the funding for the final runway at
O'Hare Airport. The runway is north of the terminal area and will have impact on Elk
Grove Village. Chicago has been working with the experts from JDA. They have provided
JDA with the data and information requested to work on a flight rotation plan. Mayor
Johnson stressed that there will be more flights when the new runway is completed. The
flight rotation plan being looked at is not for day time flights, it is for night time flights.
There will be more planes flying over our homes during the day. Mayor Johnson thanked
the City of Chicago for working with the experts and SOC (Suburban O'Hare Commission) to
help minimize the impact of the airport on surrounding communities.
Mayor Johnson asked that residents call Village Hall with questions or problems within the
community instead of posting information on social media. Recently there were postings
on Facebook about a home on the west side of the Village near the Cass and Debra Lane
area. The Village is aware of the issues on the property and has been working on them
since November 2010. The Village has to follow the rules and regulations of the court
system, which takes time.
Mayor Johnson stated there was going to be a signing ceremony for a two year extension of
the contract with the Fire Department. The current contract would expire in April of 2017
and with the extension, the contract will continue to April of 2019. The two main
components of the contract change are that the firefighters are guaranteed a 2% raise in
2018 and 2019 and they will work to make sure they fall underneath the Cadillac Tax for
health insurance.
Mayor Johnson asked for Board concurrence to remove item a. from the Regular Agenda
and to act on the item under the Mayor's Report.
