you that there are recorded Restrictive Covenants governing
lots ? and 8, comnonly known as 433 Rand Road and 429 Rand
Road respectively, located in t~e Prospect Meadows sub-
division. Article nu~nber one of the recorded covenants
restricts the use of the lots to residential construction.
"The covenants were recorded by the Cook County Recorder of
Deeds in January, 1950 in book 45139, page 310, as document
number 14707743. It clearly states that the covenants are
to run with the land and that they shall be binding on all
pa/~ties until January 1, 1970, at which t~me they shall
automatically be extended for successive ten year periods
unless it is agreed by a vote of the n%%jority of the then
owners of the properties to amend the covenants in whole
or in part.
'We would hope that you would not knowingly become a pa~ty
in aiding the present owners of the above mentioned lots in
their attempt to breach the contract. Therefore, we
urgently request that you do not rezone these lots into
any other classification, other than that specified by the
cover~mts contained in our deeds, namely residential. We
respectively request that this letter be read into the
minutes of the rezoning hearing involving these lots."

OTHER BUSINESS
A report was submitted by the Village Manager and Village Attorney
regarding Crown Temperature Engineers, Inc. bill. The estimate Crown Temp.
and proposal submitted lists seven items to be attended to at a Bill
price of $993.00. An additional bill was submitted in the amount
of $253.85. The second invoice lists a charge for labor under the
original seven point proposal, in the amount of $107.30. Crown
Ten~perature placed a certain solution in the system ara cost of
$124.80, the labor charge being $21.75. This item was not included
in the original proposal and appears to be a just bill. The
proposal itself in the amount of $993.00 contains no clause for
partial payment, nor does it contain an express guarantee clause
for repair work which was the nature of the contract. The memorandum st
states that on the face of the proposal and the additional invoice
submitted that there is a possibility of a duplication of work
done in the amount of $107.30 for labor. It is this charge that
is in dispute.
