F) Consideration to authorize a professional services contract with the Northwestern
University Center for Public Safety to perform Police Department training and field
analysis of vehicles traveling through the Village in an amount not to exceed
$31,400.
(This study is a proactive measure to address the issues that may be raised as a
result of the newly-enacted State legislation that requires police officers to collect
limited specific racial data on all vehicle traffic stops.
(Although the Village has demographic information on our residents, we do
not have demographic data regarding the work force population in the community.
(Northwest University Center for Public Safety has been identified by the State
of Illinois to review all the data that is collected by all law enforcement agencies
throughout the State. They are the agency that would collect the date for Elk Grove.
(At the time of budget preparation, the cost of the study was undetermined.
The Police Department estimated that the cost would be approximately$10,000.
(The proposal involves a study of 15 areas in the Village to identify the race of
drivers in our community. In addition, it includes analysis, training on data
collection and training of all police officers on the new law. Funds will be
transferred from various training accounts in the Police Department to cover the
difference and provide full training.
(The study is a four to six month process and needs to be conducted during
favorable weather conditions. Upon approval the study will be conducted this fall.
(A report by the Chief of Police,recommending approval, is attached.)
G) Consideration to adopt Ordinance No. 3007 (attached) amending the Village Code of

in June.
(The Police Department monitored the parking situation all summer and
determined that it was no longer an issue. All visitors have parked in the Mead
School parking lot.
(Few cars have been found parked on the streets surrounding the park. It was
determined that those vehicles either belonged to homeowners who live near the
park or to visitors to homeowners in the neighborhood.
(A report from the Chief of Police,recommending approval, is attached)

H) Consideration to adopt Ordinance No. 3008 (attached) implementing the provisions

conjunction with the Village Attorney, developed this ordinance.
(Information concerning the impact of the law will be distributed to all Village
employees.)
I) Consideration to adopt Ordinance No. 3009 (attached) prohibiting the use of
motorized skateboards and motorized scooters in the Village of Elk Grove Village.

America has added ID sign panels to the proposed freestanding sign.
