Mr. Wayne Serbin, 835 Pearson Street, addressed the City
Council stating that last Saturday he attended an anti-
gambling rally at which it was requested that each person
contact ten ( 1 O) people and urge them to oppose a
gambling license for Rosemont; he has been in Peoria
where there is hardly anyone on the streets during the

Rosemont, Des Plaines will feel the effects; we are going
to have all kinds of problems; the crime rate will go up ;
everyone should call their local State representative
today.
Mr. Vince Powers, 862 Webster Lane, addressed the City
Council stating that he is here to discuss a very
important issue--a citizen's right to speak at a City

the rule that permitted a citizen to remove any item from

participate in our government.
Ms. Diane Peters, 1713 Van Buren Street, addressed the
City Council stating that she and her neighbors are
getting different stories when they call the City about
the flood plain in their area; this is causing a lot of
confusion; those of us in the flood plain area should
receive the latest information as to what we can and
cannot do.
