W but had been notified by the company that they desire to make changes. He is
awaiting a new draft. He was requested to contact the company in order that the

Department addition will require installation as soon as possible.
Report -Flood Control Meeting Trustee Forrest reported that representatives
from ten municipalities, the Metropolitan
Sanitary District and the State Division of Waterways attended the meeting
at Niles on July 27, 1967, to discuss flooding problems. The Division of Waterways
has made studies for drainage and flood control improvements, but additional
studies must be completed. The cost of drainage and flood control improvements
is estimated to be $3,250,000, plus an additional $3,000,000 for acquisition of
rights -of -way. Decision was made to draft a letter to Governor Kerner asking
for funds to complete the studies. Copies of the draft will be sent to each

Discussion- Repeal of Sec. 16.404 Trustee Schleicher stated that the ordinance
Use of Sales Tax for Bonds passed July 17, 1967 (0- 67 -41), imposing a
tax of three- fourths of one per cent on retail
sales had included a repeal of Section 16.404, which section provided that so
much of the sales tax as is necessary for payment of Municipal Building Bonds
shall be set aside and the tax'levy for said bonds be abated. !He stated the
section should be retained as a matter of keeping faith with the voters who
had approved the issuance of bonds for the construction of the Village Hall..The
manager stated that the Board had voted to commingle funds some years ago, the
section was unnecessary since the levy was abated each year and would be abated,
and it would tend to confuse future Boards. Trustee Schleicher moved that the
ordinance be reconsidered, but withdrew his motion when the Village attorney
suggested that a new ordinance be prepared rather than reconsider the ordinance
imposing the 3/4 cent sales tax. The matter will be on the agenda for the next
meeting.
Retain Vehicle License Receipts The manager stated that the Budget provided for
in St. 9. Bridge Fund the transfer of 35 percent of the receipts for
vehicle licenses from the Street and Bridge Fund
to the General Fund, but wuth increased tales andnservice tax income and a deficit
in the Street and Bridge Fund, he recommended that all vehicle license income be
retained in the Street and Bridge Fund. Trustee Schleicher moved, seconded by
Trustee Forrest, that all income from vehicle licensessbe retanned in the Street
and Bridge Fund for the fiscal year 1967 -68. Adopted by the following vote:

uti 1 i ties.
264
1st Presentation - Ordinance The first presentation was made of an
Max. Tax Rate to .25 ordinance relative to the establishment
of a maximum tax rate of .25 for general
corporate purposes. The Village attorney explained that a new law permits in
increase in the corporate levy to .25 over a two year period without referendum,
with one -half the increase levied each year. He reported that the Cook County
Clerk's office had stated the levy would be increased without the filing of an
ordinance establishing the higher rate, but the Lake County Clerk's office will
require an ordinance.
Trustee Craig stated he felt it was an inappropriate time to increase
real estate taxes since other taxes have been raised, and the Village can get
along without the higher levy; if additional funds are needed, the ordinance
then can be adopted to increase the levy. Trustee Kelm suggested that the
ordinance be adopted to establish the higher rate, and the tax levy be reduced
to the amount that would have been levied at the lower rate. The ordinance
was read in full.
After further discussion, Trustee Schleicher moved, seconded by Trustee
Kelm, that the rules be waived to permit action on the ordinance at its first
presentation. The motion failed by the following vote:
Ayes: Bootz, Kelm (2)
Nays: Craig, Forrest, Schleicher (3)

Traffic Count at ' May 22, 1967, recommended the elimina-
Waukegan- Deerfield intersection tion of all parking within 200 feet of
the Waukegan- Deerfield Road intersection,
effective May 1, 1968. The manager reported that the State Division of High-
ways is reviewing the Village's request for turn signals, but additional
information is needed, including a traffic count on a Saturday. The building
commissioner stated he had discussed the traffic survey with the Chief of Police
who is attempting to arrange for the survey with the help of the juvenile
officer and the Boy Scouts. Mr. Ray Marshall, a member of the Safety Council,
volunteered the services of his two sons for the traffic count. Mr. Andrew
Ebert, President of the Homeowner's Association, stated that the traffic problem
had been discussed by the association, and that two to five members would be
available to assist on a Saturday.
It was the consensus of the Board that the question of removal of parking
should be resolved as soon as possible in order to give adequate notice to the
merchants. Information needed by the Division of Highways for a decision on
turn signals should be provided, and the manager was directed to ask the Chief
of Police to arrange for the traffic count, giving him the information on
volunteers. Trustee Forrest asked that the matter be kept on the agenda.
