4. MAYOR AND BOARD OF TRUSTEES’ REPORT
Mayor Johnson – Trustee Petri’s report will be moved to the end of the meeting tonight for a presentation.
Mayor attended the following meetings:
May 2 – GOA Wine & Beer Tasting Event at the Belvedere.
May 4 – Coffee with the Board at the Village Hall.
May 7 – Taped a Live radio show with Dan Proft and Amy Jacobson on WIND AM560 at the Village Hall.
May 7 – Library Board Meeting.
May 9 – State of the Village at the Belvedere.
This is a very special evening as tonight is Jim Petri’s last Village Board Meeting after over 40 years as a
Trustee. The Village Board is starting to change and it is nice to see some younger people stepping up to
serve the community. Mayor attended the Library Board meeting on May 7th where his son was appointed
as President of the Library Board. This Village Board encourages younger residents to get more involved to
ensure that the community stays strong for many generations that follow.
State of the Village – The Village is better than it has ever been both financially and in the service that is
delivered to the community. Mayor thanked the Trustees, the staff under the leadership of the Village
Manager for setting the guiding force, the employees of the Village, and the businesses of Elk Grove. The
business community is what keeps things running smoothly. Mayor referenced an article on the front page
of the Daily Herald on Mother’s Day that was written about the Elk Grove Technology Park and the same
reporter did a segment on Channel 7. It was announced last Thursday that a German Company was the first
business to sign on in the Technology Park. The company had never been in North America before and they
were looking for a location anywhere from Buffalo, New York to the Midwest to locate their high tech robotic
aerospace manufacturing company. We are proud that they chose the Elk Grove Technology Park to make
their home. That’s exactly what we envisioned for the Tech Park. This Village has set itself up to be able to
weather the tough times and more importantly take advantage of the good times. Dan Proft can be very
tough on government and he said some of the nicest comments that anyone could say about a community.
He said, “Elk Grove is a shining light here in Illinois and if every town could be like Elk Grove, what a state we
would have.” He is right and even though Jim is stepping down this evening, this Village Board will continue
to work hard for the community. Elk Grove is doing great in all forms of government. Elk Grove is a shining
light in the State of Illinois.
Police Department – It was announced today that the Illinois Association of Chiefs of Police Traffic Committee
awarded the Elk Grove Police Department First Place in the 2018-2019 Illinois Traffic Safety Challenge
among municipalities with 66–100 police officers. That speaks volumes of the quality service of our Police
Department from top to bottom. The traffic safety challenge is much more than a competition. It is a
template for Law Enforcement Agencies to identify traffic issues, plan strategies, reduce social harm, and
Page 2 of 6
improve the quality of life in the community. The Elk Grove Police Department identifies a problem, comes
up with a solution, institutes a program to solve the problem and makes sure that the residents are involved
for the betterment of the community. Congratulations to Chief Walsh and his Department.
One example of Police services is a fence situation on Cass Lane. People were concerned about the traffic
flow on Cass Lane when a fence went up. A suggestion was made to put up a solid yellow line even though
most of our streets do not have a yellow line. We asked the traffic unit to look at crash data for the last 5
years, they looked at the codes and observed the area for traffic flow. It was determined that nothing needed
to be done, in fact motorists were driving slower in the area to ensure good visibility.
Grand Openings & Ribbon Cuttings – This Saturday, May 18, from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. will be a Grand
Opening for the two new Fire Stations on Meacham and Fargo and the Public Works facility on Biesterfield
Road as part of the 2025 Plan. A ribbon cutting will be at 9:00 a.m. at the Fire Station on Meacham and a
10:30 a.m. ribbon cutting at the Fire Station on Fargo. At 11:00 a.m., hot dogs will be available to anyone that
wants one.
The 2025 Plan will also include an analysis of every street in the Village and an analysis on any water issues
throughout the residential community. We will be looking at water mains, sewer lines, lighting, street-
scaping, widening streets, turn lanes, etc. We are addressing all different areas over this 2025 Plan to ensure
that the Village is on solid footing for the next 50 years.
Library – Congratulations to the Elk Grove Public Library for achieving the #1 ranking in the country for the
Most Diverse Collection of Picture Books.
Election Results – A resolution on the consent agenda tonight is to formally accept the Cook County Canvass
Results from the April 2, 2019 election. The two Library Trustees and the three Village Trustees will be
sworn in publicly during the next meeting on May 28th.
Cop on a Rooftop – The Cop on a Rooftop fundraiser will take place on Friday, May 17, from 5:00 a.m. until
12:00 p.m. at the Dunkin’ Donuts across the street from Village Hall on Biesterfield Road. Police Officers will
be collecting donations for Special Olympics. The Village is also honoring National Police Officers Week and
thanked the Police Department for the great job they are doing to keep the community safe.
Memorial Day – May 27th is our Memorial Day Observance at 10:45 a.m. inside the Pavilion, rain or shine.
Fallen Soldier Memorial Scholarship – Trustee Feichter and representatives from the Community Character
Coalition joined Mayor Johnson at the podium to announce the Fallen Soldier Memorial Scholarship winners.
Congratulations to Nicole Brashears, Conant High School; Kelly Guagenti, Conant High School; Tristan
Fissette, Conant High School and Holly Olson, Elk Grove High School.
Trustee Franke – No Report. Trustee Franke thanked Trustee Petri for his guidance, leadership and service
to the community for the past 12 years.
Trustee Lissner – Attended the Business Leaders Forum Open House at the Technology Park and attended
the Meet Chicago Northwest Meeting with Trustees Feichter and Czarnik.
Trustee Czarnik – There were 21 applications submitted for six (6) $1,000 Frank Czarnik Scholarship
Awards. The committee will be making decisions later this week and the winners will be announced at the
next Village Board Meeting. Please Save the Date for the annual Frank Czarnik Scholarship Golf Outing on
Friday, August 9, at 1:00 p.m. This is the only way to raise funds for the scholarship program.
Trustee Czarnik thanked Trustee Petri for the many years of help on the Village Board, not only as a mentor
but also as a good friend. The wisdom that you have given us, especially when it comes to the Business Park
and the Capital Improvements Committee, will be missed. I know you will still be very active in helping us
whenever we need your assistance. Thank you for your dedication and service to the community.
Trustee Feichter – There are many memorable moments from working with Trustee Petri for all these years
and Trustee Feichter shared a few comical moments stating that it has been a pleasure working with Jim and
he wished him well.
The Community Character Coalition had a special presentation to honor Darlene Greaves at their last
meeting. Darlene came to Elk Grove Village in 1957 and calls herself a pioneer in Elk Grove Village. Darlene
has made many contributions to the community and was involved in so many activities with the Library and
the Park District that there are simply too many to mention. We thank Darlene for her service to the
community.
Trustee Prochno – Attended the Boy Scout Troop 95’s Pancake Breakfast on May 5th that was a major
fundraiser for the Troop. There was a great turn out and it was noted that there are over 147 Eagle Scouts in
the community.
On Saturday, June 8, the Kenneth Young Center will host a fundraiser entitled Hustle for Health which is a 5K
Walk in the Forest Preserve at 9:00 a.m. off the entrance at Arlington Heights Road and Landmeier. We
welcome everyone to come out as this is a major fundraiser for the Kenneth Young Center which is our
Page 3 of 6
mental health center that provides great service to our community. Outside of counseling for all ages within
the community, they provide assistance to our seniors, serve Meals on Wheels and many other services. For
more information go to kennethyoung.org.

really enjoyed working with over the years. Trustee Petri jokingly added that he had a standing invitation to

board meetings in the near future. Working on this Village Board has been a real team effort and he stated
that he could not have accomplished any of the items mentioned this evening without the help of the entire
Village Board and Village staff. Thank you to everyone. I am not happy that I am retiring but I will enjoy my
retirement.
