MAYOR'S REPORT Mayor Krause read the following State of the V.illage Address: Ladies and Gentlemen: The opportunity to present my second State of the Village Pg. 2 5/2/'78 Address, gives all of us a chance to ref.-I-ect upon this past year and to look forward to the gcals of the year ahead. The work undertaken in the past laid a solid foundation for a brighter future. My first year as Mayor, saw us come to grips with what I believe is the most frustrating and yet challenging issue in government -- the effort to effectively control Village spending arid budgeting. For too long government has taken the easy approach - that spending must automatically increase at least 10% each year, simply because of infla`ion. However, this view never takes into account the need for an accounting of what government already has and can spend. We addressed ourselves to this difficult task starting in November. T, once again, 'Ion fof. its -, salute the work of our Finance Commission extensive work and contribution to this Villapre. The many hours of work contributed, by this Board on the 1978-79 budget reflects a job well done. I am confident that next year's, work on the budlet will be even more successful. One of the vital responsibilities of elective officials is to visibly demonstrate a mutual. trust relationship with its constituents. Our local government strives to be open and helpful; yet we must always search for ways to sustain a continuing dialogue with Mount Prospect citizens. One demonstrable action was this Board's enactment of an ethics ordinance which restricts elective officials from appearing before units of Village government for two years after leaving office. Through the informal monthly coffees the Board is striving to meet residents on a. more personal basis -- giving citizens an opportunity to speak their mind and a realization that they will, be heard and listened to. We spent a large amount of time on "water" -- conserving it, examining the rate and looking for the best way to obtain Our share of Lake Michigan water. The Village had a horrendous, inequitable sewer charge which disproportionately fell on the single-family homeowner. By having a flat rate, we have aboloshed this discrimination, replenished our reserve funds and addressed ourselves to replacing lines in the older section of our Village. We will be determining within the next month a most important issue and that is, whether 'to purchase Lake Michigan water :from.Chicago or Evanston. This decision's iriipact will affect Mount Prospect for decades to come. 'The acceptance of a Community Development Grant will usher in senior citizen housing in our downtown, thereby providing badly needed assistance to our seniors and assisting the downtown revitalization program. The next year, however, entails more hard work. We should anticipate those annexations which would set our boundaries and yet bell) our tax base. Annexation of commercial and industrial properties will- strengthen our overall revenue situation and yet riot place a drain on our services. P..r - 1 5/2/78 We must resolve the "shopper parking" problem in our downtown. To that end, I a.m calling a. meeting for May 23, at 7:30 P.M. in the Trustees' Room, to address solely that problem. The downtown merchants, all who are employed there, all, who shop there, share in this perplexing yet solvable problem. The Village in cooperation with the business sector must work aggressively on a. viable solution. I would like to address a few words to the Village e loyees: This past year has seen change and new ml). direction. I believe that through these sometimes troubled waters you have continued to serve the citizens of our community well. and will continue to do so in the future. To the administration and staff: I believe that overall, you too, have service first in your minds and have done your job in a professional manner. To my fellow elected. Board members: While we do not always agree, it ha,s been a pleasure working with you and I look forward to the year ahead. You contribute various viewpoints and by the discussion of these views we have all been enriched, and the Village has become the better for it. Let us now begin work on the issues still facing us. lv[a,y(,).r, Krause presented the appaIntment of Ed Cxe-ick as Acting t,(; J'.11-11 tAle e/n.canc�y left bY,7 the, resignat.i.on to appoint Ed.

Mayor Krause proclaimed the month of May, 1978, as Senior Citizen Month. `Phe week of May 15 - 20, 1978, was proclaimed YMCA Parent - Child week. Mr. Ron Meuller of the YMCA accepted the proclamation. The Mayor, presented the bids opened on April 25th for a, new garbage contract. (Results of th(-., bid opening are attached to these minutes) Pg. 4 5/2/78 -Mayor Krause noted that the new contract would be, basically the same as the present contract except bulk items will be picked up once a month. The present contract provides for unlimited pick-up each week. Trustee Murauskis stated that under the new contract, the Village would realize a savings of $130,000 the first year - 1978-79• Trustee Murauskis also stated she was disappointed in the legal opinion which stated charging a different rate for multi -family units vs. single family could be unconstitutional. She did note that other communities are able to charge different rates by having curb or alley pick-up service. Trustee Murauskis stated that she had given this new (:ontract a great deal of consideration but overall it would be best for the Village if accepted at this time. Trustee Richardson, seconded by Trustee Wattenberg, moved to accept the low bid submitted by Browning Ferris Industries for, a three (3) year contract.

The full report was expected by May lst however, Consoer,Townsend indicated they would submit it in August, 1978. Since a decision to enter into an agreement with Share + 3 or DAMP must be made by June lst, the Board was disappointed in the timetable offered by Consoer, Townsend.

This report is attached for your examination. The new fuel dispensing system appears to be working in a very efficient manner in accounting for the amount of gas being taken in and dispensed from the tanks at Public Works. From the period of 3-22-78 to 4-24-78 there appeared the follow- ing amount of shortages in the three types of fuel dispensed from the Public Works garage: 1. Diesel fuel* 2.8 gallons 2. Regular gas 3.9 gallons 3. Lead-free gas 9.7 gallons Considering the amount of fuel distributed from these pumps, these small amounts of missing gas should be considered negligible. The shortages shown above can be attributed to two basic problems: (1)is the interpretation by the person pumping fuel as to the exact amount of gas showing on the pump meter as it is put into the vehicle. Tenths of a gallon are oftentimes interpreted above and below their actual mark,. depending upon the appearance of the number on the face of the meter. (2) Some gasoline or other fuel is used in the cleaning of tools and auto parts by the mechanics doing their regular duties in the garage. With your permission, I will continue to keep a tally of the operation of the fuel dispensing system and report it to you in the Manager's monthly memo rather than using a separate memo.

Geick, Acting Village Manager 5? -o-: Director of Engineering Last year we initiated a program to evaluate the Village streets for their structural strength. Twenty-five miles of streets were evaluated -for a cost of $17,000. This year I would like to evaluate an additional 50 miles of. streets. In this years budget $30,000 has been allocated from MFT funds for this program. I recommend that the attached resolution be adopted by the Village Board in which $30,000 is appropriated from 14FT funds to evaluate an additional 50 miles of Village streets. Bernard H.R.

The trimming specifications which we released are basically a more stringent extension of the National Arborists code. The major difference in this year's proposed contract is that the various firms had to submit a firm bid price for trimming of trees by size and payment for trimming is determined by a diameter inch classification. There was high interest in this new type of contract as evidenced by the response of five highly qualified bidders. The unit bids we received were very satisfactory, and after evaluating the bids it is my recommendation to accept the lowest overall bid as submitted by the A. J. Davis Co. it would be my further recommendation that this firm be awarded a contract to not exceed the $85,000.00 as provided for in the current budget. attachment hw;j May 12, 1978 Honorable Mayor & Board of Trustees: I concur in the recommendation of Public Works Director Herbert Weeks that we award the contract to the low bidder, A.

ATTEST: Village Clerk -2- Village President Village of A aunt Prospect Mount Prospect, Illinois INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM COMMITTEE REPORT TO: Mayor & Board of Trustees FROM: Trustee Leo Floros, Chairman, Finance Committee SUBJECT: Finance Committee Meeting 4-27-78 DATE: May 10, 1978 Present: Chairman L. Floros; Trustees N. Murauskis & E. F. Richardson. Also present: Acting Village Manager Geick. Real Estate Transfer Tax: The Committee heard a presentation from William Muhlenfeld, Executive Director of the Northwest Municipal Conference, relative to a proposed real estate transfer tax. Both Chicago (since 1973) and the State of Illinois presently impose a real estate transfer tax. The Village of Oak Park recently approved a tax of $5 per $1,000 in value of the real estate sale. Arlington 'Heights, Park Ridge, and Evanston have defeated various real estate transfer tax proposals. Mr. Geick reported there were about 600 real estate transactions in the Village annually. A tax of $1 per $1,000 in value of the real estate sale would generate about $38,500 in revenue; $1.50 per thous- and would generate $57,700; and $5 per $1000 would produce $192,500. Two local realtors and C. 0. Schlaver of the Mt. Prospect Chamber of Commerce spoke in opposition to the proposed tax. Finance Committee Chairman Floros explained that he was proposing the tax solely as a means of raising money for book purchases for the Library. He said he would oppose the tax under any other circumstances. By a vote of 2-1, the Committee recommends a real estate transfer tax of $1 per $1,000 in value of the real estate sale with all proceeds to be turned over to the Library for purchase of books only. The tax would be imposed on the seller. It would extend for a 2 year period only. Because the Finance Committee Chairman will be unable to attend the May 16 Village Board meeting, he requests that the matter be held over to the June 6 meeting. Those attending the Finance Committee meeting were advised that the measure will not be called up for a vote until the June 6 Village Board meeting. Sale of Village ro rty: Two Park District Commissioners (Bob Jackson and Richard Coleman, and Director of the Mt. Prospect Park District Tom Tayler) advised the Finance Committee that the Park District would be very much Printed on 100% Recycled Paper Finance Committee Meeting 4-27-78 Page 2. interested in negotiating the purchase of the Village -owned Sunrise Park property located south of Weller Creek between William and George Streets. The Park District was not interested in the Village property along Golf Road west of the Artemis Restaurant. It was pointed out that a 54" storm sewer runs diagonally through that property to the Clearwater Park retention basin. As a result, no one could build on the property and therefore there would be little or no commercial value to this piece of property. The discussion that ensued spotlighted the fact that the Village has land (Sunrise Park) that the Park District would like to own, and School District 57 has pieces of property (Gregory school and Sunset Park school)that would be of interest to the Park District. The Gregory school building might be of interest to the Village for a police station which, in,turn, would make the police annex building along Northwest Highway available for sale. It was agreed that the administrative heads of the Village, Park District, and School - District 57 get together to exchange views and interest in various publicly owned properties, and to report back to their respective Boards. Related to the above discussion, Mr. H. Kennicott addressed the - Committee about the possibility of dedicating a strip of land that would permit the widening of Lonnquist Boulevard west of Clearwater Park. Mr. Kennicott is offering that strip of land in exchange for equivalent land owned by the Park District. In the discussiQn_ to be held relative to Park District and Village properties, perhaps some arrangement could be worked out to accommodate Mr. Kennicott and to open the way for the widening of Lonnquist Boulevard. Administration will see if something can be worked out.

Village of P -muni Prosp:ect Mount Prospect, Illinois INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor & Board of Trustees FROM: Trustee Leo Floros DATE* May 10, 1978 (dictated 5-9) Although I will be unable to attend the May 16 meeting of the Village Board, I would like to request that the item "Lions Park Fireworks Display" be added to the agenda for discussion. I was disappointed to learn that the Mount Prospect Park District has voted to cancel the fireworks display scheduled for July 4. I believe the decision in large part was influenced by the Village's lack of financial support, and by the negative comments voiced by our Fire and Police Chiefs. I certainly respect the opinions of Chief Doney and Chief Pairitz; nonethe- less, as one who has attended these fireworks displays for a good many years, I don't believe that the threat of danger was sufficient to cancel what has become a major community event. Naturally, there is always some danger when large crowds of people congregate for anything, let alone a fireworks display, but the July 4 fireworks display in Mount Prospect, it seems to me, has become a traditional event and a source of much enjoy- ment for hundreds of Mount Prospect families and their friends. If we want to live in a sterile community, I suppose we co.uld cancel everything that poses a threat to the safety of the citizens. I am sure you could make a case for banning the Lions Club 4th of July Carnival ... or for banning high school athletic events because of the increased traffic that might produce fatal accidents. I don't believe we want that. I think if we could persuade our Police and Fire Chiefs to present a plan that would provide the necessary safeguards for the people attending the fireworks display, perhaps the Park. Commissioners would reverse their decision and permit the fireworks display to go on as originally sched'uled. I would also favor the Village contributing $500 to support the fireworks display as it has done in past years. I hope there will be a discussion on the subject and support for the position expressed above.

MAYOR'S REPORT Mayor Krause read the following State of the Vill.,,,!.ge Address: Ladles and Gentlemen: The opportunity to present my second State of the Village Pg. 2 5/2/78 Address gives all of us a chance to refle ct . upon this past year and to look forward to the p -,oafs of the year ahead. The work undertaken Jn the past laid a solid foundation for a brij-,.ehter future. My first year as Mayor, saw US Come to grips with what I believe is the most frustrating and yet challenging issue in government -- the effort to effectively control Village spending and budgetirq,-. For too long government has taken the easy approach - that spending must automatically increase at least 10% each year,, simply because of inflation. However, this view never takes into account the need for an accounting of what; government already has and :;an spend. We addressed ourselves to this difficult task starting in November. 1, once again, salute the work of our Finance Commission. for its extensive work and contribution to this Village. The many hours of work contributed by this Boa -rd on the 1978-79 budget reflects a job well done. I am confident that next year's work on the budget will be even more successful.. One of the vital responsibilities of elective officials is to visibly demonstrate a mutual. trust relationship with its constituents. Our local. government strives to be open and helpful; yet we must always Search for ways to sustain a continuing dialogue with Mount Prospect citizens. One demonstrable action was this Board's enactment of an ethics ordinance which restricts elective officials from appearing before units of Village government for two years after leaving office. Through the informal monthly coffees the Board is striving to meet residents on a more personal basis -- giving citizens an opportunity to speak their mind and a realization that they will be heard and listened to. We spent a large amount of time on "water" -- conserving it, examining the rate and lool(ing, for the best way to obtain our share of Lake Michigan water. The Village had a horrendous, inequitable sewer charge which disproportionately fell on the single-family homeowner. By having a flat rate, we have aboloshed this discrimination, replenished our reserve funds and addressed ourselves to replacing lines in the older section of our Village. We will be determining within the next month a most important issue and that is, whether,to to purchase Lake Michigan water from Chicago or Evanston. This decision's impact will affect Mount Prospect for decades to come. The acceptance of a Community Development Grant will usher in senior, citizen housing in our downtown, thereby providing badly needed. assistance to our seniors and assisting the downtown revitalization program. The next year, however, entails more hard work. We should anticipate those annexations which would set our boundaries and yet help our tax base. Annexation of commercial and industrial propert-ies will strengthen our overall revenue situation and yet not place a drain on our services. P-�- 3 5/2/78 We must resolve the "shopper parking" problem in our down;-Iown. To that end, I am calling a meeting for May 23, at 7:30 P.M. in the Trustees' Room, to address solely that problem. The downtown merchants, all who are employed there, all who shop there, share in this perplexing yet solvable problem. The Village in cooperation with the business sector must work aggressively on a. viable sol.,ution. .F would like to address a few words to the Vill-age employees: This past year has seen change and new direction. I believe that through these sometimes troubled waters you have continued to serve the citizens of our community well and will. continue to do so in the future. To the administration and staff: I believe that overall, you too, have service first in your minds and have done your, job in a professional. manner. To my fellow elected Board members: While we do not always agree, it has been a pleasure working with you and 1 look forward. to the year ahead. You contribute various viewpoints and. by the discussion of these views we have all been enriched, and the Village has become the better for it. Let us now begin work on the issues still facing us.

Mr. Ron Meuller of the YMCA accepted the proclamation. The Mayor presented the bids opened on April 25th for a new garbage contract. (Results of the bid opening are attached to these minutes) Pg. 11 5/2/78 Mayor Krause noted that the new contract would be basically the same as the present contract except bulk items will be picked up once a month. The present contract provides for unlimited pick-up each week. Trustee Murauskis stated that under the new contract, the Vill.aCe would realize a savings of $130,000 the first year - 1978-79. Trustee Murauskis also stated she was disappointed in the legal opinion which stated charging a different rate for multi -family units vs. single family could be unconstitutional. She did note that other communities are able to charge different rates by having curb or alley pick-up service. Trustee Murauskis stated that she had given this new contract a great deal of consideration but overall it would be best for the Village if accepted at this time. Trustee Richardson, seconded by Trustee Wattenberg, moved to accept the low bid submitted by Browning Ferris Industries for a three (3) year contract.
