Month President Teichert; sig~ed the proclamation. The Garden Club of ~. Prospect is sponsoring a "Keep Mt. Prospect Beautiful" campaign, and President Teichert proclaimed May ll - 17, 1969 as "Keep Mt. Prospect Beautiful Week". PresSdent ~Teichert addressed the Village Board and it was requested that iPresidentthe report be made a part of the ~.~nutes, Following is President Teichert's report to the Board. Report This being the first regular meeting of the new Village Board, I would take this opportunity to welcome the new Board men~ers. I am genuinely pleased to be a part of this Board and I am sure that you feel the same. We face many hours of hard work together - hours away from our fawdlies, our friends, our hobbies - hours of wrestling with never-ending problems and, at times, never-ending frustration; and yet I know of no experience as rewarding as, ~eing a direct participant in the business called "self-government". We all know that the problems of our conm~nity require the concentrated attention and the collective efforts of the Board, the lay commissions, and the village employees, In this there can be no reservations, for we have a mutual dedication to a common goal ~.~A~ the good of Mt. Prospect. I realize that as individuals we may disagree as to what is geod or not good for our village .... and we may disagree as to the steps we should follow to achieve what is good .... but honest disa~ement is healthy for us .... it is, in fact, a necessity if we are to amke real progress. Of course, how well we progress in solving community problems will be determined to a great extant by where we direct our efforts. It is in this area of direction that I am most interested toni~ato In this regard, I must be mindful not only of my own platform but also the platform of the newly elected trustees . ... and, of course, positions estab- lished by the old Board. With due consideration of allsuch factors, I respectfully submit to 'this Board, particular areas which I believe merit special attention, The foremost problem and one that requires our immediate attention is filling the position of Village M~nager. I cannot over-emphasize the need for a fully quali- fied administrative head of government. Proper educational background with proven experience is a necessity, and we jmust orient our thinking to provide adequate compensation as well as suitable Working conditions for the right man. This area is so vital to all of us that it demands the complete cooperation of each of us. Looking to the future, we should plan now to provide for an Assistant Village Manager in the following year's budget .... the increasing work-load and the guarantee of administrative continuity requires such an arrangement. This is not a novel concept for Mt. Prospect, but merely reinstitution of a~previously estab- lished posi~iono ~s a me~ns for .assisting our Acting Manager, and ourselves, at the present time, I will propose an ordinance change so as to provide for weekly Board meetings, except for the months of July, August and December, which would remain at two for Msy 6, 1969 ach of those months. This increase in meetings will avoid the need for special meetings, will per~it a~Journment of meetings by 10:30 P. M., and allow the Board to relieve the Acting Manager of some matters which are not definitely ~d~dnistrative or legislative. Also, it should perr~dt mediate ~liscussion and prompt action by the Board on r~any matters without recourse to Com~ttee recommendation. This should not be construed as a denouncement of cor~ttee operation but rather an attempt to expedite and dispose of simple and straig~ht-forward items, freeing committee time for complex problems which require detailed study. As we all know, committees are not provided by statute .... they are strictly o~r own creation. Whether they are burdensome and ineffectual or useful and efficient depends on how we use them. It is n~y belief that we should not channel everything through com~ttees, for this leads to tm_reasonable delay in handling routine ~atters. It is my intention to handle more things at our Board meetings and be selective in what is directed through committees. President's Report me most serious conm~nity problem in ter~s of individual financial loss, contd. personal inconverdence, mud potential health hazard is flooding. ~ wa~er resource management program for the area is an absolute necessity mud must be achieved in the shortest time possible. For this purpose, I will propose an increase int he membership of the Drainage & Clean Streams Com~ssion with a request that they accelerate their efforts by meeting twice a month. The proposal is in accord with the projected work outlined by the Co~dssion .... hopefully, it v~ill produce a useable flood control program within the year. Obviously, such concentrated effort bY this Cor~ssion will have to be accom- pained by the full cooperation of the Village Board. I am sure the serioUSness of the problem vmn?ants our assurance that all village facilities will be available as needed. Also, and in addition to fulfilling our present financial con~-z~itments to this program in the form of studies and planing, we ~nst be prepared to appropriate sufficient funds in the following year to implement the progA~am locally. Our first interest should be to adopt every and all flood control measures availab~le on a village level. We will, simultaneously, seek more positive cooperation from our neig~hboring.com- munities and continue to seek increased sewer capacity. C~r present shared=cost traffic study should include, by expansion of its scope or by independent committee effort, an analysis of multiple bridges over Weller Creek, the feasibility of pedestrian operpasses and vehicle underpasses, and a specific proposal for downto~m traffic flow. T~ffic control must include in- creased off-street parking facilities and this will require discussion and participation with the downtown merchants. Eventually, we must be involved with long-range plans for revamping and perhaps restructuring the entire downtown area. Meanwhile, and of immediate concern, I would hope that this Bosmd will entertain discussions with School District 57 regarding the disposition of the Central School property. I am aware that this may be, somewhat controversial proposi- tion, but I would urge the Board not to close out the possibilities of this pro- posal without frill consideration of the future needs of the village and the library. The facilities of the library are already used to capacity, and the village facilities are rapidly approaching their useful limits - Central School is ideally situated for an administrative building and the present playground would offer adequate off-street parking facilities. There can be little harm. in investigating the Fatter, but we would be remiss in our obligations to the cormmmuity if we did not explore the exciting potentials of such an acquisition. The proposed budget for the upcoming Fiscal uear is the work product of the previous Village Board and it deserves the commendation of all citizens for its over-all upgrading of village employees' salaries and fringe benefits. ~. 'Prospect clearly will maintain and attract the best people available for gove~-~ental service. Iu this regard, I have been ccatinually concerned that our staffing in some areas has not been adequate, and I would believe that we should undertake studies in this matter during the coming year, The basis for determining whether staffing is adequate or whether village services are sufficient carmot be merely that everything is going all right. There are definitive studies and analyses that can be pursued to help us in ascertaining our needs and our ability to satisfy them. These should be undertaken before we have a crisis. However, even if personnel expansion appears warranted, it cannot be accomplished May 6, 1969 at the expense of Tailing to maintain adequate salary ranges for our present employees. I mention this because of the increasing possibility that our present revenue sources maY be Jeopardized~:by the various tax revisions now being con- sidered by the State Legislature. Reduction of sales tax and repeal of the per- sonal property tax could force us ~nto an increased real estate tax levy and we should take positive steps now to broaden our tax base. In this respect, I be- contd, lieve that industrial development in the southernmost part of our village is most ?resident~necessary, as is increased business facilities in our developed business districts, Report including-further 'expansion of Randhurst. Also, the development of Old Orchard and the Kenroy properties can no longer be denied on an emotional basis .... we must view these properties in terms of tax benefit to our community. We should move away from the theory that the village and the property owners are antagonists and that one must win while the other loses. Most surely, we must seek a realistic compromise for our mutual benefit, or we shall end up as equal losers. I have no specific solution at hand, but I have long felt that we were closer to an under- standing than any of us actually realized. We should resolve these major developments as soon as possible, and this will require a direct appraisal of the "hig~a-rise" concept. In my opinion, we can no loner afford the prosaic viewpoint that "high-rise" is inherently bad and must be opposed regardless of the costs involved. For whateVer the term "high-rise" may mean to each citizen of Mt. Prospect, the concept must be examdned on an ink dividual basis to determine whether a specific proposal is beneficial or detri- mental to the cor~m~ity; So that these statements are not misconstrued, ~ay I again make reference to the two properties involved .... Old Orchard to the North and Kenroy to the South. Both properties are in litigation and may or may not be developed within the village and ~uder control .... how they are developed will be important to the schools and park districts, as well as the village .... they can be tax benefits or tax liabilities depending on what their development offers to the com- m~ity. I am not suggesting any specific result .... only that we brin~ ail the principals together and review the various proposals. Within the next few months, I will request that this Board meet with the Plan Con,mission and the Board of Appeals to discuss these specific cases ~th the property owners. We must be satisfied individually concerning the collective action which perm,[ts these matters to remain unresolved. I am also hopeful that in the upcoming summer months we can meet as a Board with other local goverr~nental bodies to discuss mutual problems. There can be little doubt in anyone's mind that we are knowledgable in governmental operations and are quite capable of defending the interests of our village .... we ~ust also prove that we are amenable to cooperative effort to promote the interests of our village. Our co~mu~nity is quite complex and much of what effects us ia not solely within our control. Iu such affairs it is not unreasonable to recognize a mutuality of exist- ence and an equality of power. Apart from meetings of a general nature with various bodies, I will seek an immedi- ate meeting between the Village Board and the Park District to discuss specifically the proposed acquisition and improvement of the property at Lonnquist and Busse I will request the attendance of members of the Plan Co~ssion and the Drainage & Clean Screams Co~ission. As we all know, this property involves an i~proved reten- tion basin and cannot be undertaken by the Park District without the cooperation and consent of this Board. It will have a profound effect on the reSidents of Mount Shire and Colonial Heigjats .... I wo~Id hope that residents of those areas will be in attendance. I feel that there may be some misunderstanding concerning this pro- ject and a joint meeting will be the best means for appraisal of the benefits which are involved. Many of us, while quite knowledgable about ~fc. Prospect in its physical aspects are not fully aware of Mt. Prospect as regards its socialogical structure. Specifically, we have been oriented to youth programs that we have failed to recognize that we have also grown older. Census figures indicate that approximately 10% of population is over 60 years Of age .... this means that mere than 3,000 of our residents are identifiable within the term "senior citizens". I have in ~he past two years become aware of some of the problems that face our senior citizens, and 1 in the past few months I have become aware of the efforts of our senior citizens to handle these problems on their own. ~ile I have been delighted with t~eir en- thusiasm in shifting for themselves, I am concerned with the ~p between what they are doing ~ud what they could do~ My knowledge in this area is too superficial to peZ~mI~ me to propose any specific progr~s but i~ is sufficient to alert me that there is a com~ity need. Accordingly, I will, in the near future, propose the formation of an advisory committee to ascertain the problems and needs of our senior citizens with recommendations as how and to what extent the village cmn and should · provide assistance. May 6, 1969 t the other end of the spectrum is a problem which I find difficult to des- cribe, but which we all recognize as something we ~m~st treat with genuine concern. I will call it "uouth involvement". It requires recognition that our youths are alarge and vital segment of our conmunity .... that they are responsive and responsible .... that direct conmmunication is their desire and their right. The accident of age does not diminish their standing as a citizen, and their inability to vote is less disturbing to me than those who can vote but fail to.exercise the privilege. President's The so-called "ccrmmunication gap" between youths and adults has been a han~p°rt catch-phrase to expalin the failure of adult dictated procedures. Our local schools have shown us time and a~ain that constructive youth involvement is predicated on a lot of youths with some adults .... not a lot of' adults with some youths. On this basis, I intend to propose, in due course, the creation of a Fou$_h council as an independent advisory body to the Village Board. It will not be a part of theYouth Commission nor will it conflict with the You~t~ Commission. The mode of operation and the intended goals of these two bodies will be quite different, although as with all village operations there may be areas which require intercommunication between the two groups for mutual advantage. Our youth are not merely assets for the future .... they are also present assets of the community. Their moods, their opinions, their actions are essential factors in the life of the village .... they are, of course, the prime reason for most of us being in Mount Prospect. I am hopeful that we can give them a portion of the recognition that we continually expect them to give to us. Lastly, I wish to cGm~nt ont he working relationship of the Board itself. Each of us as an elected representative of the people is beholden to no one except our own conscience. If we have trying times and periods of strain, we will also have times of unanimity and satisfaction in jobs well done, Through it all, I am sure we will respect each other and honor individual rights as members of this Board. This will require a certain amount of give and take. ! am aware of my prerogatives and powers as Mayor, and I am equally a~m_~e of your prerogatives and powers as Trustees. How we exercise our respective rights will determine to a great extent the well- being of our conmunity. I give you my assurance publicly that I will no action, make no appointment, nor cast any vote that is not premised on What I believe is best for our village. I will work with you to maintain the heritage of Mount Prospect .... to build on the tradition established by its pioneers .... to provide sensitive and responsive goverr~ent for all villags citizens .... to provide a lasting foundation of which future generations of Mt. Prospect citiznes can be proud. CO~N~'I'I'E[5 CHAIP~ REPORTS BUILDING Trustee Soderman read a report of a committee meeting held April 2, 1969 at which he and Trustee Lewis, Rober~ Moore and Peter Retten were in attendance. Under consideration was the height of fences. It was the vote (2-0) of the Buildir~ Co~.ittee not to change the present ordinance. However, under dis- cussion, the Board felt there should be more c~ification, in particular fences around the periphery of property and swi~ing pool fencing. This item was referred back to the Building Cora~ittee. The second subject discussed concerned staples for use in roofing. It was the decision of the C~,~ttee that stapling does not offer the close serutiny for inspection by the Building Department to determine if the work is being Staples done satisfactorily. In addition, staples call f ~ the use of stapling guns in for shingling and the possibility exists that staples Jam when they are imp-Roofing roperly applied, and if the stop key is not used on the staple gun, the staples would then go completely through the shingle into the roof and would not hold. Trustee Sederman, seconded by Trustee Furst, moved to concur with the recora- mendation of the Building Cc~mittee and prohibit the use of staples in roofing. Upon roll call: Ayes: Shem Furst Kilroy Reiter Soderman Motion carried.
