The Community Producer will meet with officials from The Mt. Prospect Park District
on a regular basis to determine what types of programming are to be produced, and

ninety (90) days to respond and attempt to resolve the issue. If the issue is not resolved
o the satisfaction of the agency, the grievant may withdraw from the agreement, and
receive a prorated refund of its contribution based on the amount of time left on the
agreement provided a ninety (90) day written withdraw notice is forwarded to the Village
prior to withdraw. If participation and funding is withdrawn the Village shall not be
obligated to fund the Community Producer position beyond the conclusion of the
Village's fiscal year in which the withdraw action occurred.
By entering into this agreement each participant acknowledges their willingness to
annually budget the necessary funds to cover their assigned portion of the costs. If any
other entity who provides services to the Village residents determines such participation
in this agreement would be beneficial, all participants shall review the funding
requirements for the position to determine whether additional governmental participation
is possible within the existing programming limitation. Any additional participant shall be
assigned a cost as determined by the Village.
This agreement shall expire on December 31, 2003. Thirty (30) days prior to the
expiration of the agreement, the position will be re-evaluated by all parties. If the
performance of the position is found to be satisfactory, the agreement may be
