PRESENTATION: State Representative President Blase stated that we have been saying thank Elaine Nekritz you to our State Representatives and State Senators who have been very helpful to us, and we have with us tonight Representative Elaine Nekritz who has been very helpful in getting some grant money for the Village for Ballard Road and a couple of other projects. Mayor Blase expressed his appreciation to Representative Nekritz and invited her to come up to say a few words. Representative Nekritz said she was delighted to be here and that she appreciated the opportunity to say thank you to the State and to the Village for making this happen. She knows that sometimes there is a lot of concern about how our dollars get spent, but she thinks there is no better way than public infrastructure, like a roadway. Representative Nekritz was happy to be able to help the Village of Niles with that. President Blase again thanked Representative Nekritz. Retirement – Fire Department President Blase announced the retirement of our “well- Fire Chief Harry Kinowski known Chief of over forty years”. He asked George Van Geem to say a few words. George said it was his pleasure to recognize Harry Kinowski for his many years of service to the Village of Niles. He asked Harry to come up to the podium. George stated that Harry’s 48-year career has been well-publicized. He retired on  September 26, 2006 September 1st after 22 years as Chief. During his career he spearheaded numerous innovations that have greatly approved the capabilities of the Niles Fire Department. He was instrumental in the development of RED, the development of NIPSTA, and he was a leader in MABAS which helped coordinate sending 900 area personnel and 200 pieces of equipment to Louisiana in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. It’s obvious that Harry has been the consummate public servant and we are very fortunate in the Village of Niles that he chose to have his career here with us. We are much the better for it. George then presented Harry with his retirement plaque. Retirement – Public Services George Van Geem then called up the second retiree, James Schmid Jim Schmid. George recalled that back in 1961 the Yankees won the World Series and the Cubs took the other side of those standings, finishing almost last, Roger Maris had 61 homeruns, gas cost 31 cents a gallon and Jim Schmid started working for the Village of Niles. Things have changed over time, but like the Yankees and the Cubs, Jim Schmid remained true to form and after 45 years of service to the Village of Niles he decided to retire effective July 7th. During his decades of service to the Village, Jim witnessed many changes and improvements to the Department, helped lead the Department for the last 23 years as Superintendent, making it the best in the Chicagoland area. He managed several memorable events from blizzards to heat waves to windstorms and we will miss his dedication and his knowledge. George wished him the very best in his retirement. George then presented Jim Schmid with his retirement plaque. PROCLAMATIONS: President Blase stated that the following Proclamations were on the agenda tonight: United Way Campaign October 22 - 28, 2006 Whereas, the United Way of Skokie Valley has devoted its time and resources to improving the quality of life of the residents of Lincolnwood, Niles, Skokie and Morton Grove for nearly 50 years; and Whereas, the United Way of Skokie Valley will distribute over $600,000 this year to 22 local social service agencies to help meet the needs of Lincolnwood, Niles, Skokie and Morton Grove residents; and Whereas, United Way contributions are used to support children, teens, families, abused women and senior citizens by finding affordable day care, emergency shelter, counseling, mentoring, alcohol and drug rehabilitation, mental health services and legal counseling; and Whereas, the United Way of Skokie Valley is a volunteer based organization whose minimal funding costs allow it to distribute 87 cents out of every dollar contributed directly to social services; and 2  September 26, 2006 Whereas, United Way contributions from this local funding campaign are reinvested back into the communities of Lincolnwood, Skokie, Niles and Morton Grove; and Whereas, United Way will conduct its 2006 Campaign during the Fall of this year; Now, therefore, I, Nicholas B. Blase, Mayor of the Village of Niles, do hereby proclaim the week of October 22-28, 2006, in the Village of Niles as "United Way Week" and encourage all citizens to support this effort. National Breast Cancer Whereas, October 2006 is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month - October Awareness Month; and Whereas, October 20, 2006 is National Mammography Day; and Whereas, breast cancer is the most common cancer among women, except for non-melanoma skin cancers; and Whereas, breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in women, exceeded only by lung cancer; and Whereas, the chance of developing invasive breast cancer at some time in a woman’s life is about 1 in 8; and Whereas, almost 212,920 new cases of female breast cancer will be diagnosed in 2006 and close to 40,970 will die from the disease; and Whereas, an estimated 1,720 new cases of male breast cancer will be diagnosed in 2006 and about 460 men will die of the disease; and Whereas, death rates from breast cancer have been declining, and this change is believed to be the result of earlier detection and improved treatment; and Whereas, mammography, an "x-ray" of the breast, is recognized as the single most effective method of detecting breast changes that may be cancer long before physical symptoms can be seen or felt; Therefore, I, Nicholas B. Blase, by virtue of the authority vested in me as Mayor of the Village of Niles, Illinois, do hereby proclaim the month of October 2006 as National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and October 20 as National Mammography Day in the Village of Niles. 3  September 26, 2006 Fire Prevention Week Whereas, the Village of Niles, Illinois is committed October 8-14, 2006 to ensuring the safety and security of all those living in and visiting our city; and Whereas, fire is a serious public safety concern, both locally and nationally, and homes are the locations where people are at greatest risk from fire; and Whereas, the non-profit National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) has documented through its research that cooking is the leading cause of home fires. One out of three home fires begins in the kitchen – more than any other place in the home; and Whereas, first responders in Niles, Illinois are dedicated to reducing the occurrence of home fires and home fire injuries through prevention and protection education; and Whereas, using proper care when cooking will have a positive effect on the home fire problem; and Whereas, each cooking fire that is prevented in Niles, Illinois is an opportunity to prevent painful injury and costly property damage; and Whereas, the 2006 Fire Prevention Week theme, “Prevent Cooking Fires: Watch What You Heat”, effectively serves to remind us all of the simple actions we can take to stay safer from fire during Fire Prevention Week and year-round. Therefore I, Nicholas B. Blase, Mayor of Niles, do hereby proclaim the week of October 8-14, 2006, as Fire Prevention Week throughout Niles, and I urge all the people of Niles, Illinois to heed the important safety messages of Fire Prevention Week 2006, and to support the many public safety activities and efforts of Niles, Illinois fire and emergency services.

Blase, Mayor of the Village of Niles, do hereby proclaim Friday, October 13, 2006, and Saturday, October 14, 2006, as Lions Club Candy Day in Niles and encourage all residents to give generously. 4  September 26, 2006 TRUSTEE REPORT: Trustee Preston stated that the Northwest Municipal Conference (NWMC) met on September 13th and at that time Harwood Heights’ membership request was approved, adding one more member to the NWMC. A major presentation was done by RTA Chairman Jim Reilly who presented a packet of information concerning “Moving Beyond Congestion”. This was with regard to the future of Metra, Pace, CTA, and the RTA. The priorities for Moving Beyond Congestion are to solve the current transit funding challenges, insure financial viability and accountability, as well as meet the future needs of the region. We had a resolution that was approved. The resolution just mentioned and codified the things just previously mentioned. The Village of Niles is listed as one of the partners for Transit in Moving Beyond Congestion. The various agencies are going to put together a plan that will be presented to the Legislature. Currently, a problem is that their budget is balanced by using purchasing funds for operations, which is not something that is good for long-term. It has pretty much been a band- aid solution to their current budget. In order to meet their budget, they need to add 9 percent increase in riders each year, in order to just stay even with the budget. The Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning has released its strategic plan to the Governor and General Assembly. The report presents the vision of a new agency, governance, strategic directions and funding for the sustainability of the organization. This was just informational for the NWMC. One of the major items on the agenda was the Storm Water Management Plan for Cook County. That plan is to be finalized after public hearings have been held, and public comments can be made up until September 29th. Local governments felt that they have had insufficient time to review the document which is a 300-page document, and have requested an extension to October 27th. As of this moment, Trustee Preston hasn’t heard that it has been extended, although they did think that it was going to be approved. Under Project Lightspeed, the update from the Conference, and this concerns AT&T and municipal interests regarding Project Lightspeed, that we are drafting a model document to protect the suburban areas. It was encouraged that all of the members of the NWMC stick together and negotiate as a group; however, we found out at the last meeting that Northbrook was close to an independent agreement, Hoffman Estates is currently negotiating for a 5- year agreement, and North Chicago also is doing their own independent thing. So, right now, that seems to be up in the air as to where we’re going with the future of Project Lightspeed, however, Federal legislation is pending and that would have an effect on this entire project. There was some discussion on a Commonwealth Edison electric 5  September 26, 2006 auction, but she deferred discussion on that as that is her item on the agenda later. This concluded Trustee Preston’s report. OLD BUSINESS: Special Use Permit for President Blase stated that this request was denied existing satellite dish to by the Planning Commission at a 6 to 0 vote. He remain at 7634 Odell Avenue asked if the petitioner was present, then asked Chuck Ostman, Director of Community Development, if there was only one antenna. Mr. Ostman corrected it by saying there was only one 6 foot satellite dish (almost 7 foot). The petitioner Larry Maye stated it was 2 meters (a little more than 6 feet). President Blase asked if this has just been put on the home. Mr. Maye said it was mounted on a pole in his backyard and not on the house itself. He said it has been there for three years. President Blase asked what finally brought this to our attention. Mr. Ostman said it had been brought to our attention by the inspectors as they are doing their annual housing survey. President Blase asked if the neighbors have objected to this. Mr. Maye said they have not. He had a packet which included a signed document from his neighbors that are in sight of the dish, stating that they don’t object to the dish at all. President Blase asked Mr. Ostman if this is allowed under Special Use. Mr. Ostman said yes it is. President Blase asked if there was anything further he wanted to add, then asked Mr. Maye what the advantage is to having this dish. Mr. Maye said that this is pretty much an old hobby of his. This technology is not even used hardly any more. Most of the dishes are getting smaller and smaller. This is something that he has had with him for many years. The analog technology is now being converted over to digital, which is DIRECTV and DISH Network, and so on. But there is still a lot of programming up there that you don’t find on DISH Network or DIRECTV, some of the live feeds, news feeds, and sporting events and so on. President Blase asked if this was necessary to his livelihood. Mr. Maye said it was strictly a hobby. President Blase asked the Board members if they had questions. Trustee Murphy asked Mr. Ostman, after reading the minutes of the Zoning Commission, was the overwhelming reason that they rejected it the fact that if this dish is allowed anybody else in town can do the same thing. Mr. Ostman said yes that was part of their reasoning. Trustee Preston said it would be setting a precedent. Trustee Murphy asked if that basically was the argument and Chuck said yes. Trustee Preston asked that although it was allowed by Special Use, not this size was allowed by Special Use? Mr. Ostman said that for residential anything under one meter, the FCC regulates that and the municipalities can’t get involved in any satellite dish one meter or 6  September 26, 2006 less. If it’s over one meter we can regulate it by the zoning codes. Trustee Preston asked what our zoning code says. Mr. Ostman said that it is exactly that, that if it is over one meter it falls into the Special Use category. Motion was made by Trustee Przybylo to approve the request for the Special Use permit for the satellite dish to remain at 7634 N. Odell. The motion was not seconded and failed for the lack of a second. Motion was made by Trustee Callero, and seconded by Trustee Biederman, to deny this request. President Blase began roll call, then Mr. Maye interjected a question about putting up four one-meter dishes in his yard….roll call continued, the vote was: AYES : 5 Biederman, Bondi, Callero, Murphy and Preston NAYS : 1 Przybylo ABSENT : 0 The Petition was denied. Mr. Maye then asked if he could put 25 one-meter dishes in his front yard and would that be approved. President Blase said that he would have to discuss that with Mr. Ostman. Special Use Permit to operate President Blase asked if the petitioner was present. a Chiropractic Office at Joseph Marcheschi came forward. President Blase 7329 Harlem asked Mr. Ostman if there was anything special about this. Mr. Ostman explained that this is the new strip center that was built out about two years ago at the former manufacturing site. He said that parking was not an issue because we have the right mix of retailers and services in there to where he’s asking for a 9 percent variation for a medical office. President Blase asked what else is in this center. Mr. Marcheschi said that on the north end there is Ferguson, a plumbing hardware store which primarily caters to contractors. They open at 6 am and by 11-12 o’clock their business is done since it is mostly contractors that they cater to. They are closed on Saturdays and Sundays and they close daily at 5 pm. Going south there is Lake Forest Kitchen Cabinets, which is a cabinet display store, and the maximum number of customers they have in any one day is about five. Merle Norman Cosmetics is a cosmetics retail store, and there is also Old Chicago and the Tutoring Club, where kids are being dropped off and picked up, and a hearing aid store. President Blase asked how many clients they get a day. The chiropractor responded that he gets an average of between 15 and 30 clients a day. President Blase asked the Board for questions. Motion was made by Trustee Przybylo, and seconded by Trustee Preston, to adopt the ordinance which approves the Special Use Permit to operate a Chiropractic Office at 7329 Harlem. On roll call, the vote was: 7  September 26, 2006 AYES : 6 Biederman, Bondi, Callero, Murphy, Preston and Przybylo NAYS : 0 ABSENT : 0 There being 6 affirmative votes, the MOTION CARRIED. President Blase wished the chiropractor and landlord good luck and congratulations. Plat of Resubdivision for President Blase asked Chuck Ostman if there was 8015 Washington any particular problem with this. Mr. Ostman explained that this was just a matter of cleaning up our records and making this one lot of record for the construction of a new single family home. There exists a single family home on this parcel right now. Motion was made by Trustee Preston, and seconded by Trustee Biederman, to adopt the ordinance which approves the Plat of Resubdivision for 8015 Washington. On roll call, the vote was: AYES : 6 Biederman, Bondi, Callero, Murphy, Preston and Przybylo NAYS : 0 ABSENT : 0 There being 6 affirmative votes, the MOTION CARRIED. Plat of Resubdivision for President Blase asked Chuck Ostman about this 9200 Washington resubdivision. Mr. Ostman stated that this one is just a little bit different, in that it is one lot of record right now that contains one single family dwelling. The lot is large enough to subdivide and put two new single family homes on. No other variations are required by the Planning Commission. Motion was made by Trustee Preston, and seconded by Trustee Callero, to adopt the ordinance which approves the Plat of Resubdivision for 9200 Washington. On roll call, the vote was: AYES : 6 Biederman, Bondi, Callero, Murphy, Preston and Przybylo NAYS : 0 ABSENT : 0 There being 6 affirmative votes, the MOTION CARRIED. NEW BUSINESS: Agreement between the Village Trustee Preston eluded to this previously in the and Certified Electric Supplier Northwest Municipal Conference minutes and stated that probably everyone has heard that, as of January, Commonwealth Edison will have their rates unfrozen and there is a possibility that residential rates will go up anywhere from 17 to 23 8  September 26, 2006 percent. In addition to residential rates going up, commercial rates will also go up. The Village of Niles is not in the retail electricity market and the higher electricity prices will increase municipal operating costs for the Village’s streetlights, water pumping stations and Fitness Center. Because the negotiations for a rate from whomever we purchase our electric supply from, which may or may not be Commonwealth Edison, will probably be offered and must be approved in a very short timeframe, possibly only up to 72 hours. Because of that, this Board would not be able to meet and we would have to then designate someone to have the power to approve that contract. This resolution gives that power to Mayor Blase because the Village of Niles is a member of the Metropolitan Mayors Caucus, and that Caucus is going to competitively bid on electric supply through MMC/Enterprise Municipal Energy Collaborative Agreement which is between the Village of Niles and Energy Choices, PC. Motion was made by Trustee Preston, and seconded by Trustee Murphy, to adopt the Resolution authorizing the Village President to approve an agreement between the Village of Niles and a certified retail electrical supplier identified through the Municipal Energy Collaborative (MEC). On roll call, the vote was: AYES : 6 Biederman, Bondi, Callero, Murphy, Preston and Przybylo NAYS : 0 ABSENT : 0 There being 6 affirmative votes, the MOTION CARRIED. Signs at Historical Museum Trustee Murphy stated that this is an Ordinance to approve the placement of “Historical Museum Parking Only” signs located within the Historical Museum parking facility located at 8970 N. Milwaukee Ave. These signs will help control any unauthorized parking at the facility. Motion was made by Trustee Murphy, and seconded by Trustee Preston, to adopt the Ordinance approving the placement of “Historical Museum Parking Only” signs within the Historical Museum parking facility. On roll call, the vote was: AYES : 6 Biederman, Bondi, Callero, Murphy, Preston and Przybylo NAYS : 0 ABSENT : 0 There being 6 affirmative votes, the MOTION CARRIED. 9  September 26, 2006 Commercial Signage Trustee Przybylo stated that this is an Ordinance requested by the Fire and Police Chiefs of the Village of Niles that the signage on commercial property requires that it be predominately in English. Trustee Przyblo asked for a definition of “predominately in English”. He has a concern that this may necessitate charges of discrimination against the Village of Niles against immigrants or their language of their natural country. President Blase explained that the problem we have already seen is that they put these signs up and not using English letters and the Fire and Police Department find that difficult in terms of addressing it. Therefore, the primary sign should be in English, with a secondary sign in any language that they want. Trustee Przybylo asked President Blase if there is going to be some kind of guideline as to what is the primary and what is the secondary. President Blase responded primarily “size”. Trustee Przybylo asked if this is going to be enforced by Code Enforcement and going to be known to the applicants. President Blase said yes it will be known to the applicants and we will send a notice to all of our businesses. Trustee Przybylo does not want any charges of discrimination and President Blase agreed and said absolutely not. Motion was made by Trustee Przybylo, and seconded by Trustee Callero, to adopt the Ordinance amending the Village of Niles Code of Ordinances by adding Section 78-115 Sign Lettering. On roll call, the vote was: AYES : 6 Biederman, Bondi, Callero, Murphy, Preston and Przybylo NAYS : 0 ABSENT : 0 There being 6 affirmative votes, the MOTION CARRIED. NIPSTA Appointment Change Trustee Bondi stated that this is a Resolution naming Chief Barry Mueller as the Village’s Director on the Board of Directors of the Northeastern Illinois Public Safety Training Academy (NIPSTA). He replaces former Fire Chief Kinowski who retired. Motion was made by Trustee Bondi, and seconded by Trustee Callero, to adopt the resolution which approves the appointment of Chief Barry Mueller as the Village’s Director on the NIPSTA Board of Directors. On roll call, the vote was: AYES : 6 Biederman, Bondi, Callero, Murphy, Preston and Przybylo NAYS : 0 ABSENT : 0 There being 6 affirmative votes, the MOTION CARRIED. 10  September 26, 2006 Appointment of Deputy Trustee Biederman stated that this Resolution Village Clerk names Marlene Victorine as the Deputy Village Clerk. Trustee Preston pointed out that currently our Deputy Clerk is Denise Joseph and if we appoint Marlene as Deputy Village Clerk tonight, and Marcia Jendreas is still Village Clerk, we will then have two Deputy Village Clerks. George Van Geem said that was correct. Motion was made by Trustee Biederman, and seconded by Trustee Bondi, to adopt the Resolution which approves the appointment of Marlene Victorine as Deputy Clerk. On roll call, the vote was: AYES : 6 Biederman, Bondi, Callero, Murphy, Preston and Przybylo NAYS : 0 ABSENT : 0 There being 6 affirmative votes, the MOTION CARRIED. Bid Out Flooring Improvements Trustee Callero stated that we have a request to bid To Police Department out flooring improvements to the Police Department lock-up area. The work is being done to ensure that proper water drainage will occur in this area should the fire suppression/sprinkling system be activated, as well as provide a water barrier to the area below which houses various computer, telecommunications, and security systems. Trustee Callero asked the Police Chief that being that both of them were on the advisory committee for the building of the Police Station, why were they not made aware of this problem before or during construction. Chief Strzelecki responded that he didn’t think that we were aware of the fact that if a pipe broke in the plumbing in the cell area (and that is where this area is) that underneath it, the downstairs area, is the computer room. We did have a pipe let go and had a problem with water and the staff had to run downstairs and cover all the computers. We were lucky enough to realize the pipe let go within minutes, but if the cell area was unoccupied at the time, that could have been running for a while and we would have damaged all the equipment downstairs. This will waterproof the floor upstairs. Trustee Callero confirmed that they will waterproof the floor somehow so that it will not leak down into the computer room in the basement. Chief Strzelecki said yes, that’s correct. Trustee Callero stated that this is a budgeted item and the budget is projected at $18,000. Motion was made by Trustee Callero, and seconded by Trustee Bondi, to grant authorization to bid for the Police Department flooring project. On roll call, the vote was: 11  September 26, 2006 AYES : 6 Biederman, Bondi, Callero, Murphy, Preston and Przybylo NAYS : 0 ABSENT : 0 There being 6 affirmative votes, the MOTION CARRIED. Increase the Class C President Blase stated that this is a request to Liquor Licenses increase the Class C liquor licenses from 24 to 25 to accommodate a deli by the name of Bacik’s which has been in business and has had beer and wine privileges for a period of time. They have been very cooperative and we have had no problems with them. Class C is for full package liquor only. Trustee Przybylo questioned where this location is at. Chuck Ostman stated that it is located in the Ryan Shopping Plaza just south of Minelli’s. Trustee Przybylo asked if it was an ethnic store. Mr. Ostman said yes it is. Motion was made by Trustee Przybylo, seconded by Trustee Preston, to adopt the ordinance which increases the Class C liquor licenses from 24 to 25. On roll call, the vote was: AYES : 6 Biederman, Bondi, Callero, Murphy, Preston and Przybylo NAYS : 0 ABSENT : 0 There being 6 affirmative votes, the MOTION CARRIED.
