MAYOR'S MAYOR'S REPORT
REPORT Mayor Farley opened with a brief statement about the timing of this resolution
proposal. He stated that rhetoric from Washington and Springfield indicates
that the airport is suddenly everyone's priority but there is no consideration
about the impact on surrounding communities. He also stated that while the
board understands the economic gains of being close to the airport, there
needs to be a balance of quality of life issues against economics.
Mayor Farley then read the resolution concerning additional runways at
O'Hare International Airport.

O'HARE Trustee Hoefert suggested that other regional airports could be used to
RUNWAYS alleviate the increasing capacity at O'Hare.
Trustee Hoefert, seconded by Trustee Wilks, moved to approve Resolution
