Tim Murphy
Birch Manor resident
Mr. Murphy stated he is a resident of the newly annexed property, Birch Manor. He began by thanking
the Village Board for providing assistance and does not want to appear ungrateful by asking for
additional assistance. As a part of unincorporated Cook County for many years, Mr. Murphy stated that
funds were not allocated for upgrades they didn't know they would need. Mr. Murphy was joined by the
newly elected treasurer and President of the Birch Manor Condo Association and spoke on their behalf.
He affirmed that there are little reserves and they simply are unable to afford the improvements
required by the Village. Mr. Murphy added that even with the generous contributions from the Village,
http://www.boarddocs.com/il/vomp/Board.nsf/Public 4/10

Board Docs® Pro
they are unable to fund the required improvements. Mr. Murphy requested additional funds from the
Village.
Mayor Juracek stated the Board understands and appreciates the position Birch Manor is in. Mayor
Juracek stated the existing conditions are putting the residents as risk. The Village and Fire Department
are committed to ensuring the safety of the residents of Birch Manor. Mayor Juracek explained the
CDBG grants are allocated annually and varies from year to year. As a resident of Mount Prospect,
Birch Manor will have the opportunity next year to present their case to the Planning and Zoning
Commission.
Board Comments
Suggested an alternative funding mechanism to offer funds through no interest loans for property
owners. Mayor Juracek stated the need for a funding source for the 2018 budget. Finance Director
David Erb added this will require further discussion with Village Manager Michael Cassady.
Project is over a 4 -year span
This is a life -safety issue. This project should be completed as quickly as possible and we should
explore alternative funding sources.
Mr. Cassady stated he looks forward to working with Birch Manor and their newly elected Board. Mr.
Cassady left the meeting briefly to speak with Mr. Murphy to schedule a meeting date to discuss this
issue further.
Public Comment
Yulia Bjekic
900 block of S. Hi Lusi
Ms. Bjekic expressed concern over the allocation of funds pertaining to the HUD program and grant. Ms.
Bjekic noted more funding is allocated for general administration than for public service needs.
Ms. Bjekic asked the Board why more money is allocated to repair sidewalks than public service needs
including domestic violence, sexual assault and homelessness. Ms. Bjekic believes the allocation of
funds should be adjusted. Ms. Bjekic asked about the reinstatement of the Community Relations
Commission who handled this project in the past and believes this commission would better equipped
to deal with social issues than the Planning and Zoning Commission.
Board Comments
Ms. Bjekic was thanked for her comments
The Planning and Zoning Commission spends much time considering all programs
Sidewalk programs are targeted in low income neighborhoods
Mr. Cooney provided the following response:
Restricted by the Federal Government as to where the block grant funds can be spent
A lot of thought and discussion goes into the decision process
Confirmed sidewalk programs must meet federal guidelines and funds are to be spend in low
Income areas.

Approve ordinance amending the Village Code redefining the offense of unlawful possession of cannabis
as any amount not more than 30 grams.
Chief of Police Timothy Janowick provided background information and answered questions from the
Board.
Chief Janowick stated the Cannabis Control Act was amended in 2016 that altered the statuary level for
Possession of Cannabis in the State of Illinois including the following:
1. Possession of 10 to 30 grams of cannabis was reduced to a Class B misdemeanor.
2. Possession of 2.5 to 10 grams or less of cannabis was reduced to civil law offense punishable only
by fine.
3. Possession of less than 2.5 grams of cannabis was reduced to civil law offense punishable only by
fine.
In addition, the Cook County State's Attorney's office changed their prosecution policy to reflect the
following:
• No misdemeanor charges for possession of less than 30 grams of cannabis for individuals with less
that three (3) arrests for similar charges
The current Village code authorizes police officers to charge an individual with the offense of unlawfully
possession of cannabis with a weight of less than 10 grams. To close the gap between the Cook County
State's Attorney's prosecution policy not to charge persons possession less than 30 grams of cannabis
and will provide the Village with the ability to prosecute cannabis possession between 10-30 grams.
The amendment to Chapter 23, Section 103 of the Village Code re -defines the offense of unlawful
possession of cannabis as any amount not more than 30 grams.
Motion to waive the rule requiring two readings of an Ordinance.

Public Comment
Greg Rommel
resident
Mr. Rommel, who lives next door to the subject property, expressed his concern over the location of the
Church's garbage dumpster, adding it is too close to his home. Mr. Kim responded, stating understood
the complaint and has worked with the architect to relocate the site of the dumpsters.
Mr. Rommel added that the parking lot noise is the real issue, not the worship or music noise. The
noise is the result of car doors being locked remotely. Mr. Rommel also expressed his concern that the
Sunday school building will be open to public.
The petitioners stated he offered his use of the building out of respect to the community and
understands the concerns and will use discretion.
The Board suggested the Petitioner have policies in place when defining community use. The Mayor
suggested to the neighborhood that if noise does become a problem, they can file a formal complaint
with the Village or dial 911.
The Petitioner stated he understands the concerns of his neighbors.

8.4 Motion to accept bid for Brick Paver Sidewalk Sealing in an amount not to exceed $75,000.
Mr. Dorsey presented background information for the proposed contract for sealing brick paver
sidewalks throughout the downtown area. The sealing of brick pavers provides routine maintenance to
establish a protective barrier that seals out moisture, dirt and paint and also maintains the color of the
brick.
All brick pavers sidewalks are sealed on a six-year cycle.
Two bids were received for this project; the agreement is for a two year term.
Midwest Brick Paving of Antioch submitted the lowest cost bid. Midwest Brick Paving has held the brick
sealing contract for the past several years. Their work has been acceptable, on time and within budget.
Mr. Dorsey provided the following in response to questions from the Village Board:
The life span of brick pavers versus concrete is comparable; brick pavers are more aesthetically
pleasing.
The vast difference between the two bids is due to the lack of firms performing this type of work.
A new type of brick is available that does not require the process of sealing.
Midwest Brick Paving provided the true cost of the project.
