APPROVAL OF MINUTES

OLD BUSINESS
Status Update
Mr. Cooney provided a general overview of economic activity in the Village. He stated that demolition of the
Wards and J. C. Penney Buildings at the Randhurst Shopping Center were underway. He stated that Kohl's
had moved to their new location at Rte. 83 and Dempster and that their former Randhurst facility would be
demolished in the upcoming months. He stated that Costco was expecting to complete construction and
occupy their facility by August/September of 2004. In addition, Urban has been negotiating with several
prospective restaurants to occupy the new space that will be constructed at the southwest portion of the
property. He stated Jewel Foods was in for a service station/convenience store outlot in front of their existing
facility. He stated staff was opposed to this proposal because they did not feel it was an appropriate use at the
primary entrance of a retail shopping center.
Mr. Cooney also indicated that he would be making a presentation to the Kensington Business Association at
their November 18 meeting. He stated that the Chamber of Commerce has been working with representatives
in the Kensington Business Center to reorganize the Association to ensure that the businesses are properly
represented. He stated since OPUS completed their last parcel in this development that the Association has
basically been disbanded. The last vacant parcel in the Kensington Business Center was being developed by
A. W. Zengeler. He stated they are constructing a 60,000 sq.ft. facility for their professional uniform cleaning
operation.
Mr. Cooney stated there are several projects underway in the downtown area. He indicated the Village's
Parking Deck was nearly complete and could be ready for occupancy by the end of the year. The Village Hall
was ahead of schedule with a possible occupancy by July of2004. The Library had erected the steel and was
proceeding with the second story addition. They are anticipating a late fall occupancyof2004. He stated that
several developers have expressed an interest to redevelop properties along Northwest Highway frontage east
of the downtown. He indicated there were several challenges given the dimensions of the property but that it
was a positive sign that the private sector was interested in developing some of these parcels. Mr. Cooney then
displayed a site plan for the 2004 Streetscape Program which detailed the Village Hall/Library Block and the
west side of Main Street. There was general discussion about the proposed improvements and some concerns
raised by Chairman Kurtz about pedestrian movement across Rte. 83 and Central Rd. Mr. Cooney stated that
staff would continue to look at ways to improve pedestrian movement throughout the downtown to encourage
the use of the parking structure by patrons of surrounding businesses. Mr. Cooney then indicated that the
Mayor had completed his appointments for the Strategic Downtown Committee. The committee would be
meeting within the next few weeks and hoped to complete its efforts by the end of January.

Townhomes on Rand Road were under construction with occupancy expected by Spring of '04. The Pin Oak
Subdivision had been tentatively approved by the Village on River Road. The development would provide for

APPROVAL OF MINUTES
A motion to approve the December 4, 2003 meeting minutes was moved and seconded. The minutes
were unanimously approved as written.
OLD BUSINESS
. Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
The Community Relations Commission is the recommending body to the Mayor and Village Board of
Trustees for CDBG program funding. Due to a recent change in the Village's 2004 CDBG program,
the Village has submitted a request to HUD (Housing and Urban Development) for approval and will
conduct a Public Hearing as required. As part of this process Ms. Warneke, Village Planner,
requested to meet with the Commission so their recommendation could be included with her report.)
Marisa Warneke, Community Development, informed the Commission of recent changes in the
CDBG program.
1. Summer Adventure Program
Due to staffing changes the Mount Prospect Human Services Department will no
longer administer the Summer Adventure Program. Ms. Warneke has requested
approval from HUD to transfer the funds to the Greater Wheeling Area Outreach.
Mr. Phil Harmon, Director of the Greater Wheeling Area Outreach, has agreed to run
the program. The goals/objectives of the program will remain the same as well as
participation guidelines. The program site will be in Mount Prospect and only serve
Mount Prospect residents.
The Commission unanimously approved the program transfer to the Greater Wheeling
Area Outreach.
2. New Funding Requests
Additional HUD funding is available for qualified CDBG programs; money carried over
from last year and loan repayment. The Village has received requests from CEDA
(Community and Economic Development) Northwest and WINGS (Women In Need
Growing Strong).
CEDA's funding request is for Furnace Replacement; $55,000 - $78,000.
WINGS's is requesting funds to assist with new construction costs; $98,562.
Chairman Brennan asked what the recommendation of Community Development was for the new
requests. He stated that the Commission looks at the recommendations from the Community
Development Department when formalizing their recommendations. Ms. Warneke stated that because
she was scheduled to meet with the Commission tonight she thought the process could be completed on
a more timely basis if she got their recommendation first rather than having to push the meeting back.
Although the Commission appreciated her intent they agreed the request for funding should be tabled
until the Community Development provides a recommendation. (Ms. Warneke thanked the Commission
for their time and excused herself from the meeting.)
.
Community Awareness
The staff liaison reported that Commissioner Parikh had been unable to make contact with the
Community Relations representative from Hoffman Estates. Chairman Brennan stated he would
follow-up with Commissioner Parikh as he would like to make contact with Hoffmand Estates and
other community representatives prior to the January 28th, presentation by Brian White as well as
involving them with the Suburban Reading program.
The Commission also asked the staff liaison to survey other communities through the Northwest
Municipal Conference. The short survey would facilitate a networking system with member
communities that have similar Commissions/ Committees.
.
Suburban Reading Program
Chairman Brennan reported that as of this date he was unable to have a follow-up meeting with
Marilyn Genther, Mount Prospect Public Library. However, he did have a very positive meeting with
three (3) editors from the Daily Herald. The Daily Herald is very supportive and committed to the
program. Chairman Brennan will coordinate a meeting with Ms. Genther, the Daily Herald and
himself. Their expectation is to establish a Steering committee; the Daily Herald has offered to
sponsor the first meeting.
The Commission members had several questions regarding the Suburban Reading Program.
Chairman Brennan responded that the answers to their questions will be determined by the Steering
Committee.
Chairman Brennan added he has discussed the Suburban Reading Program with Mr. Mike Stevens,
District #214 Community Education. Mr. Stevens indicated there are several other individuals/groups
interested in this type of program.
.
Letter to Mayor and Village Board
The staff liaison reported that a letter to the Mayor and Village Board had not been drafted but Village
Administration was aware of the December 4,2003 discussion encouraging the use of interfaith
prayer at public meetings.
Knowing that Village officials were aware of the discussion the Commission questioned whether a
letter was still needed. Following their discussion Chairman Brennan stated he would draft a letter
to the Mayor and Board of Trustees for the Commission's review.
.
Community Action
Chairman Brennan reminded the Commission members of the January 28th presentation/discussion
with Brian White, Director of Community Relations, Leadership Council for Metropolitan Open
Communities. The meeting is a follow-up to the Commission's Diversity Forum, and will focus on
what can be done in the suburbs to address the need for low-income housing.
Cosponsored by the Community Relations Commission the meeting will be held at Trinity United
Methodist Church.
REPORTS (Commission/staff)
. Family Issues Committee
No report
OTHER
. Dr. Martin Luther King Dinner
Commissioner Tolbert asked if there was any information available on this event. The staff liaison
responded that she did not have any but would contact the Village Manager's office, and get back to
all of the Commission members with the information.
.
Mayor's Prayer Breakfast
Commissioner Muench asked if the date had been set for the Mayor's Prayer Breakfast. The staff
liaison stated she did not know the date but would also get back to each of the Commissioners with
the information.
.
The Commission members also inquired about the appointment of a new Commissioner to fill the
current vacancy. The staff liaison responded that she will forward their question to the Village
Manager.
