Litigation
Mayor Farley stated the purpose of the Closed Session was to talk about the Northwest Electric
construction progress and what implications the progress may have on the existing agreement with
Northwest Electric and the possible impact any delays may have on completion of the downtown
redevelopment.
Village Manager Janonis stated that staff has had numerous discussions to gauge progress of the
construction of the new facility for Northwest Electric. He stated that the June 1 date as stipulated in the
contract is a critical date and staff has worked very closely to speed the project along through
accelerating reviews and permit processing. He stated that parking remains an issue at the new site and
will have to eventually get resolved.
Tom Reindl stated that it is possible that they will request a partial occupancy permit late this summer
and then complete the build-out once they are in the building.
There was also some discussion regarding the feasibility of taking down a portion of the existing building
to allow construction of the Norwood building to take place.
Skyles Relocation Expense Consideration
Mr. Janonis presented a request from Dr. Skyles in the amount of $53,000 for moving expenses from the
property that the Village purchased at Three West Central Road.
Consensus of the Village Board was to offer $45,000 for reimbursement of moving expenses.
Possible Purchase of 20 West Busse Avenue
Trustee Hoefert presented an option to the Village Board to consider purchasing the Games Plus
building from Tom Neitzke and create a walkway with a driveway area for cross access between Busse
and the new parking lot behind the buildings. He stated that Mr. Neitzke is looking for a normal return
and would suggest that staff research the feasibility of this purchase.
Mr. Janonis will review available funds and report back to the Village Board as to where possible funds
could be obtained for such a purpose.
There being no further business, the Closed Session adjourned at 7:30 p.m.
