MOT 15-144 Motion to Approve Minutes for November 16, 2015 Regular Meeting of the Village Board. It was moved by Village Trustee Brewer, seconded by Village Trustee Ott, to approve the minutes of November 16, 2015. A voice vote was taken and the motion was approved. IX. Non-Agenda Public Comment Keith Bringe, representing the Art Deco Society. Mr. Bringe discussed preservation of the historic Oak Park Post Office and asked the Board for their support as they advocate for increased funding from the United States Postal Service for needed repairs. Rebecca Morrow-Nye. Ms. Morrow-Nye asked the Board to uphold the zoning laws to enforce the high school's obligation to provide a minimum of one off-street on-site parking space per classroom for the more than 500 employees. Taxpayers have already paid for half the cost of building the community parking garage. She would like her tax dollars to finish paying for the necessary garage, not buy it so it can be destroyed. Bruce Kleinman. Mr. Kleinman stated that tearing down the parking garage may cause a ripple effect down Lake Street into the business district. He felt that this would be poor public policy when there is such limited parking in Oak Park. In addition, off-site parking could make it difficult for teachers to get to the building in inclement weather. Monica Sheehan. Ms. Sheehan quoted minutes from several D200 board meetings and discussed why the parking garage was built in the first place. Enrollment is expected to grow; future needs should be considered as well as current needs. Maureen Vachta. Ms. Vachta supports the idea that upgraded aquatic facilities for the high school are needed. However, it should not come at the expense of the parking structure. Kevin Corotis. Mr. Corotis, a student and water polo team member at the high school, discussed the sub-standard condition of the current pool compared to pools at other schools. Peter Ryan. Mr. Ryan asked that those leading the petition drive opposing the pool support the information that they have been promoting to the community and apologize to the D200 board and local residents for misinformation given, such as the exaggerated cost of the project. Ellen Pimentel. Ms. Pimentel stated that she has attended many D200 board meetings to become educated regarding plans for the pool. They have done their due diligence; this was the best solution available. Wayne Franklin. Mr. Franklin also stated that the location where the new pool will be built is the best available option. Village President Abu-Taleb commented that the school is in need of a pool; the current location does not work. In addition, everyone concurs that parking is an issue for the neighbors, which also needs to be addressed. He hoped that these discussions will lead them to a solution that is the best possible for the community. X. Village Manager Reports Village of Oak Park Page 2 Printed on 1/5/2016 President and Board of Trustees Meeting Minutes December 7, 2015 Village Manager Pavlicek noted that carpet and furniture replacement is being done at Village Hall during the month of December.

The motion was approved. The roll call on the vote Village of Oak Park Page 3 Printed on 1/5/2016 President and Board of Trustees Meeting Minutes December 7, 2015 was as follows: AYES: 7- Village Trustee Barber, Village Trustee Brewer, Village Trustee Lueck, Village Trustee Ott, Village Trustee Salzman, Village Trustee Tucker, and Village President Abu-Taleb NAYS: 0 ABSENT: 0 F. ORD 15-203 Second Reading and Adoption of an Ordinance Amending Section 20-7-2 of the Oak Park Village Code to Establish New Environmental Fee Rates Village Trustee Salzman commented that this increase will go towards the debt incurred for alley improvements, which has been a Board priority for two years. It amounts to approximately $2 per quarter. He added that anyone not in favor of this should explain how they would propose the funds be generated. Village Trustee Barber commented that these fees were just raised last year. Village Manager Pavlicek stated that last year the Village absorbed the increase from the contractor and charged less than the actual contractual price. This year, they are asking to pass on the contractual price from a year ago as well as the increase in disposal fees anticipated from the landfill. At 3.5%, the cost per month for a 96 gallon cart will be $24.72 and $20.29 for the 64 gallon cart. Village Trustee Barber asked how much of an impact absorbing the 3.5% would have in terms of income. He was under the impression that last year's increase would continue to be used to offset the alley improvement debt until completion. He was confident that the funds could be found in other areas such as positions not filled instead of raising fees for every resident. It was moved by Village Trustee Tucker, seconded by Village Trustee Salzman, that this Ordinance be adopted. The motion was approved. The roll call on the vote was as follows: AYES: 6- Village Trustee Brewer, Village Trustee Lueck, Village Trustee Ott, Village Trustee Salzman, Village Trustee Tucker, and Village President Abu-Taleb NAYS: 1- Village Trustee Barber ABSENT: 0 XIII.
