Approve Livery License issuance of a Certificate of Public Con -
venience and Necessity for the operation
of a livery service for the transportation of handicapped people.
Mr. Michael Friedlander, owner, described the service he will provide for
the handicapped, including those who are confined to wheelchairs. He antici-
pates the operation of a fleet of vehicles, and while he will provide service
to individuals, he expects that a majority of business will be from agencies
or a group contractual service. He has applied to the Illinois Commerce Com-
mission for a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity but there is some
question whether they will take jurisdiction. He said the City of Chicago has
given permission for his operation and has not defined it as a livery service.
He has submitted applications to other North Shore municipalities for Certifi-
cates of Convenience and Necessity.

Bcth he and Baxter & Woodman recommend that the contract be awarded to the Nu -Way
Crntracting Corporation, the next
low bidder, at the bid price of $83,926.00.
Tle difference between Area Grade's
bid of $76,146 and Nu -Way's bid of $83,926
is $7,780, but forfeiture of Area
Grades proposal guaranty of $7,600 will cover
all but $180.00 of the additional

agreed to acceptance of the contract for a
period of 15 days from the date of

OK Original Plans The Village engineer reported that he, Public
S.T.P. Chlorine Works Director Ed Klasinski and Baxter &
Woodman engineers James Johnson and Ed
Woodson had inspected the on -site hypochlorite.generation- systefn at "the,Waterloo,
Iowa sewage treatment plant. Different cost information was received from the
Waterloo Plant Superintendent than had previously supplied by the equipment manu-
facturers, and based on this information, Baxter & Woodman stated any potential
savings did not warrant the estimated $66,700 additional construction cost for
the on -site generating system. Mr. Soyka stated that information from Common-
wealth Edison on costs for electricity and the price for a very pure solar evapor-
ated salt will bring the on -site chlorine cost to 20� per pound. The Village is
paying 12(,, per pound at present. He recommended that the use of gas chlorine be
c ontinued.
President Forrest stated Commonwealth Edison may increase rates, and-salt
mist be obtained from Salt Lake City; further, the Federal Government may say that
chlorine is not the best thing to use. Trustee Seidman stated he felt chlorine
treatment may be prohibited since research indicates`"that_�chlotine may be a
ccrcinogen.
Trustee Moses moved, seconded by Trustee Seidman, that a letter be sent
to Baxter & Woodman, directing them to proceed with the original plans for chlorine
t reatment.
Motion carried unanimously.

Zming Appeals and the Plan Commission could be excluded from a policy which would
permit appointment of more than one member of a family. Trustee Seideman stated a

Family Day Request -1 Day Mr. James Atchison, *present, and Mr. Duane
Beer License - Discussion Ebbert, treasurer of the Deerfield Family
Financial Problems Day Committee were present to discuss the
Committee's request for the issuance of a
ore -day beer license for the serving of beer in the parking lot behind the Police
Department on July 4th, Deerfield Family Day, and for consideration of alterna-
tires to the financial problems faced by the Family Day Committee.
President Forrest stated the Village is having problems with the enforce-
ment of present liquor licensing laws and he felt there could be more problems
if the sale of beer is permitted in the Village Hall parking lot. He pointed
out that the American Legion has a license for the sale of beer. Mr. Atchison
stated the Committee is developing plans but he could say that beer sales in
the parking lot would be staffed by Family Day people.
Dr. Henry Sarton, a member of the Legion, stated he did not believe a
precedent should-be set by permitting the serving of beer in the parking lot.
Hesaid the Legion has an annual beer license, and in addition to working with
the Family Day Committee, has given a contribution each year. Mr. Atchison
stated the location of the Legion Hall was a disadvantage and it was felt more
beer would be sold if ft is available'eloser.to activities-,in Jewett Park. He
said the Family Day committee has no information on the profits from beer sales
but last year the Legion contributed $180.
Trustee Moses stated the sale of beer an municipal property is prohibited
by Statute. Mr. Stucko concurred and added that beer cannot be sold within 300
feet of a church and the Village ordinance requires that alcoholic liquor can
only be sold within a building.
Discussion was had on a possible deficit which could amount to as much as
$4,000. Mr. Ebbert stated the major sources of income were from sales in the
pwk and donations from residents who were solicited for',contribirtions which
wwe sent out with water billings. The first contributions from water billings
have been less than last year, and most expenses have gone up. Trustee Gavin
stated Northbrook industry subsidizes-Northbrook Family Day and in- Highland Park
the Chamber of Commerce gives a subsidy. Mr. Ebbert stated he hopes industry
wi1.1 pay for the Free Street Theater. This year there will be Bingo for the
first time and more fireworks and other attractions. Trustee Gavin stated
Bingo licenses run for five days and Bingo has been profitable in other places.
Ste suggested that Bingo for the five day license period could provide additional
income.
Mr. Atchison suggested that the Board underwrite some of the costs if there
is a deficit. He pointed out that heretofore Family Day has been financed by
drnations from residents and organizations. Trustee Moses suggested a publicity
campaign giving information on the amount.needed for Family Day, and if adequate
durations are not received Family Day may.have to be abandoned.
Trustee Seidman stated he did not feel-it would be serious to wait until
after the middlp- of July for any request.for :funds to meet a deficit. Trustee
Moses agreed and said at that time expenses and receipts would be known, but
tte Family Day committee should not feel that.any promises have been made.
The meeting was recessed at 9;50 p.m. and re-convened at 10 :00 p.m.,
all members present.
Dr. Henry Sarton, as a representative of.the.American Legion, invited all
to attend the Memorial Day celebration on May-30th to.pay-.homage to the war dead.
Cars for the parade will be provided for Village officials and President Forrest
wi1l give the Memorial Day address.

of this requirement but the company would furnish a performance bond.

P.D. Recommendation re"
The Police Department submitted an ordinance
Burglar & Holdup Alarm
regulating burglar and holdup alarm businesses,
S}stems Ordinance
systems amd users and recommended passage of a
Authorize Ordinance
similar ordinance. Sgt. Davenport stated the
proposed ordinance was similar to that in effect in
Oakland, California, and has.been
approved by_ several police organizations. He
answered members' questions on
fees., fines and costs for installations. He estimated
the cost of answering an alarm
to be $22 per call. Of the 809 alarm signals in
1974 less than 10 were valid;
.the remainder were due to human error.or system
failure. The President stated
he felt the minimum fine of, $5.00 for violations was
rot realistic.
Trustee Seidman moved, seconded by Trustee Moses, that the attorney be
directed to prepare a burglar and holdup alarm systems ordinance.
