p.m. The Public Hearing was being held pursuant to legal
notice to consider and hear testimony as to an Annexation
Agreement and ordinance for properties located at 55, 65
and 75 South East River Road.
Assistant City Attorney Bartel briefly reviewed the

properties at no cost to the owners; this annexation is
a prerequisite to the annexation of the Fisherman's Dude
Ranch property, 9661 Golf Road (further action on this
matter under Committee of the Whole later in the
meeting) .
Assistant City Attorney Bartel stated that the property
owners are requesting the City to waive all costs for
recording the agreement, which would be passed along to
the developers of 9661 Golf Road. There was general
agreement among the aldermen that this could be done.
The owner of 75 South East River Road addressed the City
Council asking if the City could help fund the sewer line
from their homes to the street. Alderman Becker said
that perhaps a Special Service Area could be created.
The Public Hearing was adjourned at 7:40 p.m.
The City Council reconvened at 7:41 p.m.
Mr. Wayne Serbin, 835 Pearson Street, addressed the City
Council stating that there is a meet-your-local-
legislators meeting once a month in Mt. Prospect;
couldn't we do that here?
Mr. Larry Kolnik, 94 E. Wisconsin Drive, addressed the
City Council regarding the Mancari property at 77 Rand
Road, which borders his property; there are many
unresolved issues concerning flooding, lights and the
large transformers; these are all safety hazards.
Mayor Arredia asked City Attorney Wiltse and City
Engineer Oakley to go out to the property tomorrow (May
7th) and look into these complaints.
A resident at 38 Wisconsin Ori ve addressed the City
Council stating that his property backs up to the Mancari
property; they have had flooding; Mancari pushes the snow
up against their property.
A resident at 60 Wisconsin Ori ve addressed the City
Council stating that he has not had flooding since 1988
but he does now; the transformer pole is 9' from his
garage; it is a large industrial pole; it should be
moved; also the lighting is bad.
Mr. Vince Powers, 862 Webster Lane, addressed the City
Council stating that the hard economy has hit many
people; the City should look at some of their programs,
i.e. vehicle stickers-the City should get a list of all
vehicle licenses issued by the State and match them with
our records; not all citizens are getting their City
stickers.
Alderman Sayad stated that the City has been doing that
since last October; the City purchased the list from the
State for about $500; these people are sent letters.

Mr. Powers suggested the City look at the business
license registrations; one person has been checki ng on
this for the City and the City has received $70,000; that
is a good return on our money; also the fire inspectors
were supposed to check business licenses when they make
their inspections, but it doesn't happen; it is not being
implemented.

majority agreement in Executive Session to approve a
general wage increase for non-union positions of 3.5%

as she has on all the other salary increases; we can't
afford a 3.5% wage increase and a 0 to 5% merit increase;
we have a 7% unemployment rate in Des Plaines; 80% of our
budget is personnel.
