THE COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE WILL MEET ON JUNE 25, AND THE NEXT VILLAGE Minutes COFFEE WITH COUNCIL June 8, 1996 The meeting was called to order by Trustee Michaele Skowron at 9:00 a.m. Other Trustees present were George Clowes, Timothy Corcoran and Irvana Wilks. Representing Village staff was Police Chief Ronald Pavlock. Ernie Lasse wanted to know the results of the survey conducted by the Village/Airport Commission on air traffic noise. He understood there were two monitors placed in our community and was wondering about the outcome of this research. Mr. Lasse was advised that the appropriate staff person would check into this matter and pass the information on to him and the Village Board. Tim Boyle and Joe Usery requested assistance in alleviating a water drainage problem in front of their residences on North Louis. They stated there are four manhole covers and one of them, appears to be obstructed because water is backing up onto their property and standing for approximately four to five hours after a rainfall. They reported they had contacted Public Works and have not received an answer. A diagram of the problem was presented. This diagram and their concerns were passed on to Sean Dorsey, Public Works Deputy Director, for a follow-up review. NOTE: On Monday, June 10, 1996, Public Works met with both neighbors and reviewed the problem which was an old problem not related to the new construction. They will continue to monitor this problem, but even with the heavy rains this past week the problem did not reappear according to Deputy Director Dorsey. Trustee Clowes brought up a concern he had with a sewer drain at the southeast corner of the Maple Street parking lot that appears to need some repair. The concrete and asphalt around the drain have deteriated, creating a hazard. This information was immediately passed on to Sean Dorsey for action by Public Works. NOTE: Deputy Director Dorsey advised on Monday, June 10, 1996, that this repair had already been scheduled, but because of Trustee Clowes concern it has been moved up for immediate repair. Trustee Clowes reported a concern he had about a construction project that was approved as final for the resident at 410 N. Prospect Manor whereby a driveway was constructed and, after Village approval, it was found there were drainage problems. A discussion then ensued among the Trustees present about what information is passed on to the homeowners when they secure a contractor and a permit is issued for work on their property. Specifically, the concerns related to what the Development and Building Code stated relative to the pitch of driveways, patios and sidewalks. They questioned as to whether this information is passed on to the homeowner at the time the permit is issued. This concern was reported to Community Development Director Bill Cooney, and he will contact Trustee Clowes and the resident and advise the Board as to what is currently the policy when permits are issued. Trustees strategized that if the issue is information to the homeowner, perhaps mailing a pamphlet to the homeowner when the permit is pulled would convey what to watch for in pitch. David Schein brought to the attention of the Police Chief an abandoned bike that has been sitting in the bike rack on the railroad right-of-way directly across from Keefer's Pharmacy for several months now. Chief Pavlock immediately contacted the appropriate person and the bike was taken into custody and properly inventoried. The bike was not licensed and a check of its serial number by Police Department computer did not show it as stolen. The serial number will be entered into the information computer and held for six months. If it is not reported stolen or claimed, it will be disposed of at our next bicycle auction.

Lisa Angell - Public Works ABSENT: Diet- 1.1obi CALL TO ORDER• At 7:40 p.m. an informal discussion of various topics related to solid waste issues was initiated by Vice Chair Luteti With the arrival of Chairman Westlake which provided a quorum, the meeting was called to order. APPROVAL, OF NUNUTES: The Solid Waste Coordinator stated she had been informed by Commissioner Johnson earlier in the day that Commissioner Johnson's name had been omitted from those in attendance at the April Commission meeting. With the addition of Commissioner Johnson's name to the Commission members present at the April 18, meeting the minutes were approved. CITIZENS FORUM: No residents were in attendance to address the Commission, SOLID WASTE PROGRAMS/DATA: The Solid Waste Coordinator reported ARC asposal had replaced the entire inventory of refuse/yard material stickers due to the poor quality of the original inventory of the new yellow stickers. The manufacturer was responsible for the cost of the new inventory. She also reported on the on-going but somewhat sporadic problem there have been with the collection of corrugated cardboard. A few months ago when there were a few incidents of the refuse driver collecting cardboard set -out for recycling as garbage, an ARC representative had assured the Coordinator the problem was resolved as he had talked to the responsible driver; a former recycling driver who knew the material would not be picked up by the recycling driver as it did not meet recycling specifications. Apparently the problem has not been resolved as Commissioner Winkler related that during clean- up week the corrugated cardboard that was properly prepared was collected by the reftm driver. The driver told her that -the boxes did not meet specifications; the following week Commissioner Winkler set -out a similar mix of corrugated which was collected by the recycling driver. The Coordinator stated she would once again discuss this matter with ARC Disposal and, pursue final resolution of the problem. OPEN HOUSE The following Commission members volunteered to work at the May 18, Public Works Open House; Commissioners Luteri, Rentschler, Westlake and Winkler. The Coordinator noted that Commissioner Johnson also volunteered to work that day. OTHER BUSINESS: Based upon a request for an update of the ]EPA paint program the Coordinator reported that (Ridden paint had relocated out of 'Mount Prospect which left the Village withoui,a paint business willing to participate. She also mentioned that as long as SWANCC seeks to host'a one day household hazardous waste collection day at the transfer station, the Village will be considered a host community. SWANCC would like a commitment from the IEPA that a a SWANCC community will be host to a collection at least every two (2) years if not one (1) year. A brief summary of the May 4, Community Clean -Up was given by the Coordinator who also noted that Chairman Westlake and his daughter Elizabeth volunteered their time for the project. The Coordinator reported she had made a presentation at the annual Illinois Recycling Association Conference on May 9, in Rockford. The panel she served on addressed pay as you throw programs and full cost accounting. She indicated that according to a solid waste expert with the Solid Waste Association of North America the number one (1) way to reduce solid waste costs is through the collection process. A successful step the Village made approximately five (5) years ago when it adopted the modified volume based approach. The Coordinator stated a meeting with BFI to discuss recycling at Randluirst was postponed but should be rescheduled in the near ftiture.
