Joe Schultz, Director of the Park District, commented that both the
Park District and Village have ordinances which specify 11 P.M. as curfew
for lights at Clavey and Jewett Parks. The ordinance under discussion
lists 10 P.M. as the curfew time. Mr. Schultz stated that in order to
have a uniform curfew time at all parks, the Park District Board would
be willing to pass a resolution to turn off lights at 10 P.M. with the
stipulation that in the future when the Park District needed to add to
their programming, it would be allowed to extend the curfew beyond 10 P.M.
The Board did not agree to change.the 10 P.M. curfew.

Trustee Rosenthal acknowledged receipt of the information given to the
Board by petitioners on the Parkway North signage setback matter.
Trustee Rosenthal commented there appeared to be a misunderstanding
between the Board and petitioners when this matter was discussed by the
Board last Fall. Placement of the sign was expected to be 35 feet from
the curb. The existing sign is much too close to the road. Mary -Anne
Cronin of LaSalle Partners briefly reviewed her research on this issue.

$15,000 will be incurred due to the winter and inflation.
Trustee Marty moved, seconded by Trustee Marovitz, that a contract be

with the requirements of the federal and state agencies.

awarded to Donohue & Associates in an amount not to exceed $67,903.

DISCUSSION ITEMS A discussion of the leaf removal program and
scavenger service contract was held. Due to
problems caused by the landfill on Willow Road reaching its capacity,
restrictions on the amount of waste brought to the landfill have been
imposed. The immediate problem this poses is removal of leaves.
Several options listed by the Village staff were reviewed. The staff
recommends that no leaves be picked up by the scavenger service after
October 17 as part of their normal service. Instead, bagged leaves
would be picked up by the scavenger service on'Saturday, October 31 and
Saturday, November 21. This would be in addition to the "one pass"
vacuum leaf collection service provided by the Village. A long term
solution to waste collection will have to be initiated and will probably
include some type of waste separation by the residents.
Trustee Marty moved, seconded by Trustee Rosenthal that the staff
recommendation for bagged leaves to be picked up on Saturday, October 31
and Saturday, November 21 be accepted as presented. Motion carried
unanimously.
Village Manager Robert Franz mentioned that a letter was received from
an auto leasing firm which will be locating in the Village inquiring if
a reduced vehicle sticker rate would be possible if the firm purchased
them (approximately 1500) from Deerfield. The Village Attorney stated
there was no legal constraint against the Village allowing this. The
staff was requested to investigate the financial ramifications of this
request.
There being no further business, upon motion of Trustee Seidman,
seconded by Trustee Marovitz, the meeting adjourned at 9:45 P.M.
