City Attorney Wiltse read a statement reminding citizens
who wish to speak for or against any candidate or issue

Section 1-9-12 of the City Code; any person attempting
to violate these rules will be out of order and will be
requested to cease their comments and leave the podium.
Mr. Brian Burkross, 2133 Webster Lane, addressed the City
Council asking why resident taxes went up when the City's

sources.

City Council stating that the VFW's "Make a Difference
Day" for special children on October 22, 2006 was a huge
success; he thanked all those who donated food and drinks
for the children; the children can't wait to do it again
next year.
Mr. Scott Olson, 2B5 Harding Avenue, addressed the City
Council asking the voting population to remember that
over 3,600 signatures were gathered for an issue that
will affect the City for the next 23 years; you should

Arredia ruled Mr. Olson out of order for speaking to a
political issue that will be on the ballot tomorrow, and
asked him to leave the podium.
Mrs. Barbara Van Slambrouck, 2B6 Stratford Road,
addressed the City Council asking about the 2005 TIF
Annual Report; she has been waiting for 11 months; are
you trying to hide something?; if the City is concerned
about blight, how about the house behind the old post
office; the weeds haven't be cut in a year; everyone
should be subject to the same ordinances.

11/6/06
Alderman Becker reviewed this matter regarding the
potential uses for City-owned property located at 520 S.
Des Plaines River Road; Mountain Mudd Espresso has
withdrawn its interest in this property for a drive-
through coffee-kiosk; maybe we should clean it up for the
winter.
Deputy Director of Community & Economic Development
Angell stated that this site needs to be cleaned up; Elks
Lodge could use it for parking during the winter months ;
we should negotiate an agreement with the Elks Lodge or
make it a pocket park or send out RFPs for this two (2 )-
acre site; there is not much you can put on this site.
Alderman Beauvais stated this site should be cleaned up
and let the Elks Lodge use it for the winter; we should
wait for the Parking Study to come back before we make
a decision.
Alderman Christiansen stated that he would like to see
a drawing for a park. Deputy Director Angell said he
would see if that could be done.
Moved by Becker, seconded by Murphy, to recommend to the
City Council that Staff be authorized to prepare the
property at 520 S. Des Plaines River Road for the winter;
negotiate an agreement with the Elks Lodge for use of the
property for parking during the winter; and prepare a
drawing for a pocket park on this site.
Moved by Becker, second by Argus, to adopt a SUBSTITUTE
MOTION that the potential uses for City-owned property
located at 520 S. Des Plaines River Road be referred back
to Staff for further review. Motion declared carried.
Alderman Becker reviewed this request for a Map Amendment
to change the zoning of 1419 Lee Street (Parcel 2 and
Parcel 3 only) from C-3 General Commercial District to
C-4 Regional Shopping District; and request for approval
of Preliminary Planned Unit Development (PUD) to
construct a retail shopping center consisting of four (4)
separate buildings, including two (2) drive-through
facilities; all on property located at 1419-1439 Lee
Street.
Representing the petitioner were: Attorney David Grobart,
Lowis & Gell en LLP, 500 Lake Cook Road, Suite 2 60,
Deerfield, IL 60015; Charles Markopolous, Axiom
Development, 5406 Devon Avenue, Suite 204, Chicago, IL
Architect Steve Weiss, Weiss Architects, 220 S. State
Street, Chicago, IL and civil and traffic engineer, Pete
Olson.
Attorney Grobart gave an overview of the project;
approximately 40% of the space is leased with a
commitment from Discovery Clothing, Starbucks and Bank
of America; this project conforms with the City's
Comprehensive Plan; Staff and the Plan Commission have
recommended approval; 183 parking spaces will be provided
which exceeds the amount required.
Ms. Pat Nelson, 1109 Stockton Avenue, addressed the
Committee of the Whole stating that she has a problem
with the stacking up of cars for the bank; you are going
to have a problem with another bank.
Ms. Kathryn Macaluso, 815 E. Oakton Street, addressed the
Committee of the Whole stating that traffic there is a
problem; we don't need another bank and we don't need
more condos.
