An Ordinance was presented for first reading that would PUBLIC WOR~ authorize an advisory referendum question on the April 7th FACILITY ballot relative to whether the Village should finance the REFERENDUM construction of a new Public Works Facility, including QUESTION acquisition of the land. Over the past months there has been discussion as to the need for a larger facility, possible enlargement of the existing area, etc. Studies were authorized by the Village Board by outside consultants and the consensus was that a large facility was needed and that the present locations at 10 and 11 South Pine Street could not be enlarged efficiently to handle the needs. The proposed location of the new-facii~%y is on Central Road at Busse Road, which is land owned by the Metropolitan Sanitary District (MSD). It was noted that the amount involved with the purchase of the land and construction costs would amount to $6,200,000. There is presently a $2,200,000 reserve for this project so the actual amount of General Obligation Bonds would be $4,000,000. There was discussion by the members of the Board as to the actual verbage to be presented to the electors, and it was the recommendation of Trustee Van Geem that the question be kept short and that information should be given to the residents on the overall proposal prior to election day. Mayor Krause presented figures reflecting the actual dollar amount paid to the Village through real estate taxes over the past 11 years for a home valued at $120,000. The figures were from a high of $182 in 1977 to a low of $121 in 1980. The estimated amount for 1987 would be $182, including approximately $10.00 to finance the pUblic Works Facility project. The question to be presented to the electors on this subject was proposed as follows: "Shall the Corporate Authorities of the Village of Mount Prospect authorize the construction of a new Public Works Facility to be located at Melas Park at a cost of $6,200,000?" Page 3 - January 6, 1987 Trustee Arthur, seconded by Trustee Murauskis, moved to waive the rule requiring two readings of an Ordinance in order to take action on this advisory referendum question.
