In 1997, the Village Board formally adopted its first comprehensive 5 -year Capital Improvements Plan
(CIP). In previous years, the Village used a number of separate documents in its capital projects
planning. While each of these documents was useful in its own right, none offered an overall picture
of the Village's capital needs. The establishment of a 5 -year Capital Improvements Plan (CIP)
provides a comprehensive view of the Village's capital needs for consecutive rolling five-year
windows.
The proposed 2000-2004 CIP is generally comprised of projects which involve the purchase or
construction of long-lived,, tangible assets at a cost of $25,000 or more. The total cost of all requests
for all years included in the plan is approximately $48.3 million.
Many of the requests in the plan are simply continuations of established projects. Others are projects
not currently in progress but have been discussed by the Village Board on previous occasions. Some
requests are being presented for the first time through the CIP. Given that the CIP is intended to
afford a comprehensive view of the Village's capital needs, it is fitting that all of these project requests
be included in the proposed plan. Of the $48.3 million of project requests included in the proposed
CIP, about $30 million or 62%) is for the continuation of established projects including approximately
$4.5 million for a new Village Hall/Senior Center.
NOTE.: ANY INDIVIDUAL WHO WOULD LIKE TO ATTEND THIS MEETING BUT BECAUSE OF A
DISABILITY NEEDS SOME ACCOMMODATION TO PARTICIPATE, SHOULD CONTACT THE
VILLAGE MANAGER'S OFFICE AT 100 SOUTH EMERSON, MOUNT PROSPECT ILLINOIS

A project's inclusion in the CIP does not guarantee its funding and accomplishment. The CIP is a
planning document. As such, it is subject to change. The CIP will be reviewed and updated on an
annual basis. The next CIP will cover the years 2001 through 2005.
Special attention should be given to the projects requested for 2000. Those are the projects, which
would potentially be included in the Village's next annual operating budget. Although the Village
Board may decide not to fund a 2000 project request included in the final 2000-2004 CIP, the CIP
should serve as a "pre -budget" for capital items. The 2000 project requests included in the proposed
CIP amount to $7.5 million. Of this amount, $6.9 million or 92%) is for the continuation of established
projects including $3.9 million for the Street Program.
The proposed 2000-2004 CIP was initially distributed on May 18,1999 to the Village Board and the
Finance Commission. The Finance Commission held a meeting on June 3 to review the proposed
document. Copies of the draft minutes from the Commission's meetings will be provided separately.
once the Committee completes its review of the proposed 2000-2004 CIP, it will be presented to the
Village Board for formal acceptance on June 15, 1999.

A, Elk Grove Fire Protection District Request
Tillage Manager Janonis stated that the request to provide water is to a single station on the far
southern reaches of the Village. The water would be used for fire sprinklers and general building
needs related to the expansion.
Arthur Pischke, a Trustee for the Elk Grove Rural Fire Protection District, spoke. He stated
that the water main is close to the Station and once Village approval is obtained, they can finalize
architectural plans for the expansion.
General comments from the Village Board members included the following items:
A question was raised whether the Village allotment for water can absorb additional users outside
the Village. There was also a question as to who absorbs the cost of the expansion of the mains.
Village Manager Janonis responded that the Village is well below its allowed allotment and the
Fire Protection District would incur all necessary costs to tap off a 16" main in the area. The
actual usage amount for the Station would be quite small.
Consensus of the Village Board was to support extending water service to the Elk Grov
Rural Fire Protection District Station at 1415 East Algonquin Road, The charge for wate
service would be consistent with existing V11*11ae a
Ordin
gnces.

Village Attorney Hill stated this Is a very poor piece of legislation and it is quite difficult to
interpret. He stated the Act covers a number of areas among them, the definition of a Gift, whom
does the Gift Ban apply to, what is a prohibited source of a gift; and the timing for which a gift.
could be received. The Act requires, that an Ethics Officer be appol.nted to review eth,ics cases
that are brought forward for consideration. He recommends that the State Legislative Ethics
Commission conduct any Ethics Hearings instead of a local Commiss.lon. Hle is anticipating
additional clarification during the Veto Session regarding this Act. The duties of the Ethics Officer
are limited to reviewing the Statements of Economic Interest and review applications of how the
Act applies to various issues when inquiries are made. The Village already has a Gift Ban
Ordinance in the Village Code and this Ordinance is more restrictive than the State regulations.
In this instance, the Village code would take precedence since it is more restrictive. Mr. Hill
recommended that the Village Board consider appointing a retired member of the Judiciary as its
Ethics Officer for the Village.
General comments,,,form,the Village !Board members included the following Items:
Some Trustees pointed out that they do not feel that the Gift,Ban Act woll Id have much 'impact on
the general operations of -the Village Trustees since there had not been an issue in the past,
There was a suggestion that the Northwest Municipal Conference considering having an Ethics
Officer available for use by a number of towns In the Conference. There was also a discussion
regarding whether the Ethics Officer would 1be,.p6id .,and what 41s..the oversight for the Ethics
Officer. There was a Aiscussion regarding how the exceptions,of the Act would be incorporated
into the Village. Ordinance and a Suggestion was, made regarding the establishment of a Local
Ethics Review Board Instead of utilizing the State Ethics Commis �sion.
