ACCEPTANCE OF MINUTES OF MAY 251 1999 CITIZENS TO BE Aff�RD �Z 041 IV* 209, Q S16EIML NE69YEMENMP 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 60056s 8471392-6000, EXTENSION 5327, TDD #8471392-60640 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.

Ive OUTSIDE OF VILLAGELI 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. 0 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.
