HomeMy WebLinkAbout1689_001'z Village of Mount Prospect Mount Prospect, Illinois INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM L TO: BOARD OF TRUSTEES FROM: MAYOR CAROLYN He KRAUSE RE: PACKAGE LIQUOR STORE BUSINESS DATE: AUGUST 1, 1984 Recently, 'in preparing for three u pcoming Hearings for alleged sale of alcohol to minors, I reviewed the current status of liquor licenses in Mount Prospect, the various class elf ications and what impact they have on this community. It is evident that no further package liquor licenses should be "issued. db W Ap 4W db dh db At the -current time, Mount Prospect.,has issued and has outstanding 62 liquor licenses of which 13 license holders can sell, package liquars ,,, (Nine carry a Class C license; 4 carry a Class', A, although, I of' the 4 does not sell package d I'i-quor and 1, Cl,a,ss P license). These 13 locations cover all r ixe I as of Maunt Prospect from the far South to the North. 0 N I believe that our residents expect high standards in business usages -- that if a community has a proliferation of package liquor stores, it reflects adversely on a community - just as too many arcades and karate stores all diminish the "class" of a community. Our residents want, I feel, only several package liquor stores in Mount Prospect in order to make purchases,for home entertainment -- not excessive stores plastered with signs selling their products. The Village has, however, strengthened Chapter 13 (Liquor Code) over the past several years. We now limit "loungell areas to not over 25% of the floor area; we prohibit fights in establishments that serve liquor. The goal here is to reduce police and ambulance calls to Class "S" establish- ments. Approximately 6-7 of the Class "S" licenses, in fact are bars with food service incidental. Clearly, Mount Prospect is better served by no longer & 9 increath e a number of licenses for pckae liquor sales sing g •, CAROLYA H.

Eachy ear we receive sc,,,,veral req u,ests to paint hotise, numbers' on curbs. Village residents are given, fla,rst pr,1'.0rity and the jwmber of painters are limited by the, amount of the Village that 1,,equires painting. Last year we had three different groups painting and it was the first time we nearly completed the entire village. All painter,s are required to obtain, and carry with them, a Village of �fount Prospect business license. (See attached) No fee 'is charged for this, but instead serves as a form of 'Identification. The Public Works Department assigns each painter a specific area. They must complete that area and report back to Public Works prior to receiving another area to paint, All painters are also required to supply us with aphone number where they can be reached and a sample of their advertisements. (See attached) This, year we had only two requests, both from Hinsdale. Only one was gliven, p,erm,,i,.,ss,1on and was assigned th,e area, shown on the attached jnap,, ThIs was the on' 1,Y, area, a,ssi,gned this year and was chosen because the painters last ye,ar did not do a very good job and did 'not, complete it, Over the past s' ix years our office has only received seveii or eight complaints about the curb pai[n, tars, h'I h , w cwould indicate a, general acceptance of the P,rogra,m, I myself fi, nd the addresses very helpful at night because most res idents do not maintal*.1n, lights oVer their front doors or in some cases do not em have 'house numbers., G 1 en n d, 16 GA/ eh Attachments 4 I VILLAGE OF MOUNT PROSPECT STATE OF ILLINOIS BUSINESS LICENSE FOOD AND MIL Paul Jacu:5& Katt Strauch TOBACCO. --- 306 N Quincy FEE $ N/A Hinsdale IL 60521 RECEIPT NOW"" 11 License has been issued to the above, whose principal business address is also shown above, to operate the business of painting curbs within the Village in, the — — --------- - - area speciPublicfied by ublic Works Dgpartm!�Pt_ . --which curb ps,iin.t,in,g - — — - — ------- 111p ift U, in the Village of Mount Prospect, County of Cook, and State of Illinois, from A 1984 until ll subject to all ordinances, which now or hereafter may be in force.

Please let me explain what this entails. First, a white rectangle is painted on the curb in front of every house. Next, the house number is stencilled on the rectangle. After this has been compel eted, the resident of every house is asked to make a donation. May I stress that the people are under no obligation to contribute if they do not wish to. After the numbers have been stencilled, the houses are much easier to find, especially at night or in the case of an emergency. Many times I have been commended by policemen and firemen for our work, 11 Currently I am' eighteen years of age and for thepast three summers I have been self employed stencilling address numbers on curbs. I have learned my job well and I am responsible for my work. Thank you very much for your time in consideration.

TO: VILLAGE MANAGER TERRANCE L. BURGHARD FROM: ADMINISTRATIVE ASSISTANT TO THE VILLAGE MANAGER DATE: AUGUST 2, 1984 SUBJECT: RETIREMENT/LONGEVITY RECOGNITION p Per you request, I have prepared some cost.estimates for the proposed retirement/longevity recognition program. As- you may recall, the proposed program calls for a plaque and a gift for all retiring employees. Also, longevity would be recognized during an awards luncheon held each fall to honor those employees celebrating their quinquennial anniversary during that calendar year. In addition, employees with at least 20 years of service to the Village would receive a plaque. RETIREMENT Although there is no way to predict.the exact number of employees who will retire during a given year, the Finance Department estimates that an average of two employees retire per year (per our definition of "retierement") Each retiree would receive a gift within a pxice range specifiled by 'the Village Manager. $100 was suggested by Department Heads as an appropriate amount. Also, a plaqueii would be presented to, the retiree at a Village Board meet3,-ng. Plaques typica,i ly range in price from $20.00 to $50,,00 depending on s-ize and style. However, the Village receives a 60% discount from Mighty Mites Awards in Des Plaines which brings the range down to $8.00 to $20.00 per plaque, plus engraving charges. At $20. 00 two plaques would add another $40. 00 for a - total estimated cost of $240.00 per year. A separate retirement dinner will be arranged by the Department Director but will be paid for by those employees in attendance, 11 M LONGEVITY In order to determine the cost of the proposed longevity t recogni ion program, it was first necessary to project the number of employees who would be eligible for recognition during a given year. This information is summarized in the attached table. You will note that two plans are under consideration for the employee luncheon. Plan A would include all employees celebrating their quinquennial anniversary during that calendar year. Plan B would exclude five year employees. In any event, all Department Directors will be invited. 11 Using an average of $10.00 per plate 'for food and non- alcohv olic beerage, Plan A would cost approximately $560 for the 1984 luncheon. Plan B would cost $410 for a savings of $150 if five year eMDloyees are excluded, I In addition to the employee luncheon, employees with 20+ years of service would receive a plaque from the Village on their quinquennial anniversary. In 1984, eight such employees,"' would be recognized , However, since we agreed to "catch up" on all 20+ year employees in 1984, another ten plaques would be awarded for a total of 18 plaques., At $20.00 per plaque, the cost would be $360 in 1984. In future years, this -cost will decline substantially (see Table). In summary, the total cost for the proposed Retirement/ Longevity Recognition Program is approximately $1,160 for 1984. However, under Plan B-, the total cost would be $1,010. Using the same analysis for 1985, there is a projected cost of $67`0 for Plan A or $490 for Plan B. Please note that all cost figures assume that all employees eligible to attend the luncheon will, in fact, attend. Although this 'is not likely, Department Directors are also invited which will adjust for this to some degree. In any event, the figures cited are probably on the high side. 0 Feedback from the Department Directors has generally been positive. One Department Director has suggested adopt Plan B for the awards luncheon. This luncheon could be expanded to include special awards for Village employees. However, in order to control costs, it would be necessary to set up, specific Ar shouldui , _aelines for special recognition and any such awards coordinated. "' e / ! for the Recognition Programs be given .specific person to ensure that all arrangements are made for recogni tion activities. i E� JOHN .

Such a policy will ensure equitabil,e treatment for all Village personnel and will clarify the responsibility for arr,angiang and paying for recognition activities. A special, staff meeting was held on May 22 to, discuss the specif iecs of a Village-wiede policy in the area of retire- ment/ longevity recognition. The proposed policy statement which follows is "based on these discussions. Please review this information and let me know if you find any problems'j, inconsistencies, :etc. It should be ma,de clear that nothinp In this pol' icy statement would preclude employee activi t, i, e s which go beyond those listed, provi,d,ed the cost "is, picked up by the employees in attendance. 01 jany" Milo For purposes of recognition, retirement shall be defined as leaving employment with the Village after at least twenty years of service with, the Village of Mount Prospect or "if the employee 'is at least sixty.years of age, leaving employ- 'meli,nt with the Village after at least ten years of service with the Village of Mount Prospect, Employees retiring f'rom" Village service will be formally recloginizeld, at, a regular meeting of the Mayor and Board of During this meeting, the Mayor will present the retiree with a, plaque to connemorate the occasion. Retiring employees will also be honored at an off icial retirement dinner. Arrangements for this, dinner will be made by the Department Director or in the case of a reti i .9 irin I'" Director the Manager. Durin 9gge Manant Village E All plaques and retirement gifts will be provided at the expense of the Village. The retirement dinner, however, will be paid for by those employees in attendance. LONGEVITY RECOGNITION All employees,celebrating a quinquennial anniversary (every five years) with the Village during a given calendar year will be formally recognized at a regular meeting of the Mayor and Board of Trustees. These employees will be invited to the Board meeting by Department according to the following schedule: Public Works .... Second meeting in September Fire............First meeting in October Police. . a I a, a 0 $1& Second meeting in October All Other Departments., . First meeting in November During the meeting, those employees celebrating their fifth, tenth or fifteenth year with the Village will be presented with a certificate by the Mayor. Employees with 20, 25, 30, etc., years of service will receive a plaque. Although we have some "catching up" to do in this area, it would be extremely difficult to bring everyone to a Board meeting for this purpose. Therefore, it was decided that all employees with 20 years of service or more, regardless of their anniversary date, would be presented with a plaque at a meeting this fall. Thereafter, only quinquennial anniversaries will be recognized in this way, All employees celebrating their quinquennial anniversary during a given calendar year will also be invited to attend an "awards luncheon" to be held in September or early October of each year. The purpose of this luncheon will be to honor these employees or any others who have reached a milestone in their career or have received special recognition from outside professional or service organizations. Other incentive awards may be presented at this luncheon as well. Persons invited to this awards luncheon will include: Those employees who will be recognized or who will receive awards, all Department Directors and the Village Manager. The awards luncheon will be paid for by the Village. JMB/rcw a t : -d-1 c El Village of Mount Prospect Mount Prospect, Illinois I uu I TO: TE RRANCE L. BURGHARD, VILLAGE MANAGER FROM: RONALD W. PAVLOCK, CHIEF OF POLIC! SUBJECT: HANDICAPPED PARKING REGISTRATIOV DATE: JULY 95 1984 Reference recent correspondence from the Village of Glenview as to their handicapped parking sticker program, the following points are brought to 9 your attentionO 1. The Secretary of State is in the process of issuing new handicapped parking cards. These cards are of two types, permanent and temporary, 2.1 The Northwest Municipal Conference is also issuing new handicapped cards, and have included a temporary handicapped card which will have a termination date. 30There is already some confusion as to the placement of handicapped stickers/cards in a vehicle. The Secretary of State displays the card on the dashboard, the Township organizations have the card displayed on the driver's visor* 4. Some communities have a sticker affixed to the rear window. 5. There is further confusion in that some handicapped parking cards are issued to the vehicle and others to the person. The Secretary of State's card is issued -to the person. 60, Presently, officers are aware of the handicapped stickers/ cards of the Secretary of State and the onissue ssued by, the, Townships. It appears that if each municipall"Ity issued their own stickers there is a hi ghi prob abil ity, thatofficers of other departments may not honor these stickers/cards due to not knowing where to look for them, 7. In order to clarify the issuance process, the Northwest Municipal Conference has indicated their preference to have them have the handicapped cards printed, and they in turn will issue these to the townships for distribution. d In summary, it would appear that no benefit would be gained by the Village also being involved in the issuance of handicapped stickers/cards, . .......... 0�1 1 10, o Ronald W. vdock Chief of Police RSC P:jh 11
