EXECUTIVE SESSION
JANUARY 12, 1993
The Executive Session was called to order at 6:38 p.m., in the second floor Conference
Room of the Senior Citizens Center, 50 South Emerson Street, for the purpose of
discussing Property Acquisition. Present at the Executive Session were: Mayor Gerald
Farley; Trustees Mark Busse, George Clowes, Timothy Corcoran, Leo Floros, Paul
Hoefert and Irvana Wilks. Also present were Village Manager Michael J anonis, Finance
Director David Jepson, Planning Director David Clements and Broadacre representatives
Fidel Lopez and Robert Meers.
Property Acquisition
Relative to the final siting decisions regarding the Catholic Charities project, the Village
Board discussed the feasibility of acquiring the property at 12 East Busse Avenue,
commonly known as Prospect Medical Center. Staff provided information regarding the
likely purchase price and there was general discussion regarding the viability of the
business located at this site. The opinions of Broadacre representatives were solicited
with regard to the value of the land as well as relative site plan issues.
Based upon extensive discussion, a determination was made not to pursue the purchase
of the 12 East Busse Avenue property.
The Executive Session adjourned at 7:28 p.m. and the Board commenced the regular
Committee of the Whole meeting and items of business were discussed.
At 8:50 p.m., the Board reconvened in Executive Session for the purpose of discussing
Property Acquisition. The same persons listed above were present.
Village Board discussed the potential need to acquire the property at 111 West Central
Road, commonly known as Terrace Supply. Based upon the desire of the Board not to
pursue the Catholic Charities development at the Pine/Wille site, the Board felt it
prudent to at least discuss the status of the Terrace Supply property relative to the
overall development in the Pine/Wille block. Again, the opinion of the Broadacre
representatives was solicited regarding the need to acquire this property at the current
time. All parties agreed that the focus of redevelopment on the Pine/Wille block
initially would be located along the Northwest Highway frontage.
It was conceivable that as part of a phase 2 development, acquisition of the Terrace
Supply property might become an issue. If that became a reality, Village Board members
expressed a desire that the owner of the Terrace Supply property would be a willing
seller or would be interested in becoming a partner in subsequent development.
After further discussion, it was the consensus of the Board members that acquisition of
the Terrace Supply property was unnecessary.
The Executive Session adjourned at 10: 15 p.m.
