He stated Fiesta Market would be opening next week in the former Frank's Nursery location. Fiesta Market is an international produce mart.

NEW BUSINESS Update of Marketing Tools Mr. Cooney stated that staff was working on updating the Village's current marketing tools. He stated that the brochure and video that had been designed several years back was now out-of-date. The goal of the current modification is to design materials that can be easily updated and tailored towards specific users. Mr. Cooney demonstrated some of the proposed designs for a new marketing brochure that received general support from the Commission. He also explained that the Village would be purchasing blank miniature CD ROMs that would be sent to prospective tenants. He said that the Village could bum Power Point presentations onto these CD ROMs that are tailored specifically towards a prospective tenant. He also indicated that the economic development component of the Village's website had been updated to include existing office vacancies and a listing of shopping centers in Mount Prospect.

He said he would inquire whether it was possible to splice the video and maintain a viable portion of footage to burn onto the CDs. Downtown Redevelopment - the next steps Mr. Cooney stated that staff had performed a Request for Proposals for a Phase II study on the small triangle area. Four firms responded and the Iow bid is approximately $4,500 to conduct the work. The Commission supported moving forward with the borings to determine if there were any environmental issues in this area. Mr. Trapani then stated he had prepared some draft site plans for the potential redevelopment of the small triangle area. The Commission reviewed the plans and indicated general support for moving forward with a recommendation to the Village Board to pursue the redevelopment of the small triangle area. It was suggested that the Commission wait until the results of the Phase II borings to determine the viability of the redevelopment of this area. There was concern that, given there were formerly two gasoline service stations on the lot that there could be substantial environmental issues. There was much discussion of what the next appropriate steps should be in order to move forward with such a project. Mayor Farley indicated that it would be appropriate for the Commission to provide a recommendation to the Board for their consideration. It was decided that once the results of the borings were available, such recommendation would be made. CHAIRMAN'S REPORT Chairman Kurtz had no additional comments.

NEW BUSINESS (~ommunit¥ Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program Overview: Mr. Cooney gave an overview of the Community Development Block Grant Program, some history of the Village's involvement in the Program and a summary of the types of projects that are funded through the CDBG Program. He also reviewed some of the documents that had been provided to the CRC in advance of the meeting. He outlined what was going to occur at the Public Hearing that was going to be held at 7:30. Mr. Cooney indicated that representatives of each of the sub-recipients would be there and be prepared to make a brief presentation regarding the Program and answer any questions that the Commissioners might have. He then explained that it was staff's hope that the Community Relations Commission would be able to make a final recommendation that night, following the applicant's presentations at the 7:30 Hearing. Chairman Brennan indicated that his preference would be to host another meeting where they could discuss in greater depth the different Programs and see if any of the Commissioners had suggested changes to the funding. Trustee Zadel outlined his past experience with the CDBG program and the budget review process. He indicated that the Village is under some time constraints, given HUD's deadlines and additional steps in the approval process; however, he informed the Commissioners to do whatever they felt was necessary to accurately review the request and make a recommendation. Following some further discussion, Commissioners agreed that another meeting should be held on Thursday, November 7, at 7:00 p.m., at which time they would review amongst themselves the different requests and make a final recommendation. The Commissioners had some general questions regarding the CDBG Program and what type of questions would be appropriate during their presentation and question and answer period.

Both programs are targeted to meet the needs of at risk children within the Village. The next presentation was by CEDA Northwest Self-Help Center. CEDA provides services for transitional housing. They said their request actually contained two components: one was a program funding request of $10,000; the second was $25,000 for CEDA's building sprinkler improvements. It was discussed that the building rehab funding was a separate line item vs. the public service program. The next presentation was by a representative of Pads to Hope. The Pads to Hope Program provides several shelters for homeless people. They had indicated their 2003 funding request was $5,000. The next presentation was for the Girl Scouts Program and the funding request is targeted towards low- income people that are not normally served by the Girl Scouts Program. They indicated their funding request for FY 2003 was $10,000. They indicated that their research shows there are approximately 770 Hispanic females (ages 5 to 17) in Mount Prospect; however, the Girl Scouts Program served less than 100 in 2001.

CALL TO ORDER Chairman John Brennan called the meeting to order at 7:15 p.m. Commissioners Barbara Muench, Judi Muniz (arrived at 7:20) and Pankaj Parikh were present. Commissioner Anthony Tolbert was absent. Also present were staff liaison Lisa Angell and Bill Cooney, Director of Community Development. APPROVAL OF MINUTES There were no minutes for approval. OLD BUSINESS FY 2003 CDBG Budget and Action Plan Chairman Brennan asked each of the commission members to summarize the five requests that they were assigned at the previous meeting. Each member provided a brief summary of their respective requests and offered insights on the particular requests. Once all of the requests were summarized, Chairman Brennan suggested that the Commission take each request one by one and determine if the Commission wished to modify the preliminary staff funding recommendation. The commission members indicated that they were generally in support of the preliminary recommendation, especially since they were not very familiar with many of the programs and that each of the programs were certainly worthy of full funding. After a lengthy discussion of each request, the Commission determined that they would recommend that the preliminary recommendation be modified to increase funding for the Suburban Primary Health Care Program to $11,000 and to decrease the Club RecPIex Program to $2,500 and the Special Leisure Services Program to $2,000. The consensus was that the two publicly run programs had other revenues sources to tap into while the Suburban Primary Health Care provided a very important service to Iow -income individuals that do not have access to health insurance. Chairman Brennan asked for a motion to approve the CRC's recommendation to the Village Board. Commissioner Muench made a motion to approve the FY 2003 Action Plan and CDBG budget as amended and to forward the recommendation to the Village Board for their review and consideration. Commissioner Muniz seconded the motion and it was approved unanimously. The attached spreadsheet reflects the CRC's recommendation. NEW BUSINESS The Commission briefly discussed what their next steps should be. Chairman Brennan suggested that the commission members review their bylaws, specifically the goals and objectives that were stipulated by the Village Board when they created the CRC, and to be prepared to discuss what topics the CRC should pursue during the upcoming year. CHAIRMAN'S REPORT Chairman Brennan had no additional comments. ommunity Relations Commission November 7, 2002 Minutes Page 2 ADJOURNMENT The Commissioners agreed the next meeting would be held on Thursday, December 5, 2002 at 7:00 p.m. at the Public Safety Building, 112 E.
