The Clerk called the roll and announced that the following were Present: Bernard Forrest, Mayor James Marovitz Cynthia Marty Harriet Rosenthal Edwin Seidman Vernon Swanson J. Robert York and that a quorum was present and in attendance. Also present were Village Manager Robert Franz and Village Attorney James Stucko. Trustee Seidman moved, seconded by Trustee Marty, that the minutes of the previous meeting be approved. Motion carried unanimously. James Soyka, Village Engineer, indicated on a sketch the location of the eight lots immediately west of Wilmot Road where the road improvements, sanitary sewer, water main and storm sewers would be built. Mr. Brien, Vice President of Richard H. Miller & Associates, design engineers, also discussed the improvements that were planned for Country Lane. James Stucko, Village Attorney, in answer to a question asked by a Board member, noted that the proposed improvements were all consistent with what the Village has previously done with the Master Plan. Robert Kenny, representing the property owner of the northeast corner of Wilmot and Lake Cook Roads, appeared before the Board and stated that "our client is obviously against the proposed assessment and to put the Board on notice of pending litigation regarding use of that property. The Village is premature in voting on the improvements until the Court has a chance to find what the proper use of that property is. If it is commercial, as we seek in the lawsuit, then that improvement becomes unnecessary." Mr. Kenny made a formal request that the Village not take any action on this Special Assessment until the litigation is resolved. Trustee Rosenthal moved, seconded by Trustee Marovitz, that the public hearing be closed. Motion carried unanimously. Trustee Marty moved, seconded by Trustee Swanson that the Board of Local Improvements adopt the Adhering Resolution and refer this matter to the Village Board. Motion carried by the following vote: AYES: Forrest, Marovitz, Marty, Rosenthal, Seidman, Swanson, York (7) NAYS: None (0) There being no further business, upon motion by Mayor Forrest, seconded by Trustee Swanson, the meeting adjourned at 8:15 p.m. AP VED: Mayor ATTEST: Vill.aaa_ Clerk
