Reject Proposal - Police A report from the Village manager stated
Deerfield Commons that an average of 15 hours per week is
spent by off -duty policemen -in policing
the Deerfield Commons Shopping Center. If the Village were to enter into an
agreement with the Shopping Center to provide the same service,-he estimated
the cost to be from $70 to $106.50 per week, depending on whether the service
is provided by the regular police shift or on an overtime basis. Several
members voiced their opposition to the Village's taking on this additional
police duty, pointing out that much of the problem was created by the in-
adequacy of the parking, and that a prec ®dent would be set which would result
in requests to take-over the policing of other parking lots. After further
discussion, Trustee Raff moved, seconded by Trustee Craig, that the proposal
for the Village to pol.i.ce the Deerfield Commons Shopping Center be rejected
and the owners be so notified. Adopted by the following vote:
