BZA Report Re: Deerfield A report from the Board of Zoning Appeals
Savings &.' Loan Sign recommended denial of the petition of Deerfield
Savings and Loan for variations to permit the
erection of a flashing illuminated sign at the property line on the Waukegan Road
frontage of their property at 745 Deerfield Road. A letter from the Deerfield
Savings and Loan Association requested that the variations be granted and pointed
out that the sign is needed for purposes of identification of location, the
sight -line precludes erection five feet from the property line, and the proposed
sign is not a flashing sign in the usual sense since there would be a time interval
between the recording of time and temperature. Discussion was had on the need
for the sign where the driveway is for egress only.

problems and flooding in the We -Go Sub-
division area from culverts under the Toll Road. Copies of correspondence and
reports from Charles Greengard and Associates showed that the Village was concerned
about drainage problems at the time the Toll Road was constructed in 1957. The
building commissioner reported that Mr. Baylus from the Toll Road Commission had
been asked to check his files regarding problems in connection with drainage in
this vicinity. He stated that Mr. Baylus had felt that the matter would be
referred to the consulting engineers for the Toll Road, but could not:say when a
reply-to the Village's letter of July 3rd might be expected.

Moran Sub. Improvements improvements for the Moran Subdivision
were presented for approval as recommended
by the building commissioner. Mr. John Bure, attorney for Mr. Robert Moran,
asked that the requirement for a street light and TV inspection of sewers be
waived. He stated there were no street lights in the Woodland Park area and
questioned the need for the one street light as an unnecessary expense. He
also questioned the TV inspection for sewers less than 300 feet in length.
Trustee Craig pointed out the Moran Subdivision was not a new subdivion but
rather-:a resubdivision of existing lots and the one street light in the entire
Woodland Park area seemed an unreasonable requirement. Mr. Moran qgreed to
the TV inspection.
Trustee Raff moved, seconded by Trustee Schleicher, that plans and
specifications for complete improvements for the'Moran Subdiviston be approved.
Adopted by the following vote:
Ayes: Bootz, Forrest, Kelm, Raff, Schleicher (5)

the Board's confidence in appointing him as the real estate representative on
the Real Estate Review Board.
A report from Baxter and Woodman stated they were proceeding with an
investigation of cover material for odor producing areas at the sewage treatment
plant. It was suggested that covers for the sludge beds perhaps should be
given first priority, although they-will also investigate sludge de- watering. It
is hoped that the final report will be available for the August 5th meeting.
Discussion - Scavenger Service A lengthy discussion was had on scavenger service
and in particular the removal of garden and
lawn wastes. Mr. Gene Kieft, Deerfield Disposal Service, recommended that garbage
and refuse be picked up at the house or garage as required by the present ordinance,
but garden wastes and lawn and hedge clippings be picked up at the curb. He stated
that an increase in rates would be mandatory if all refuse, including garden wastes,
must be picked up at the house, and expressed concern about being able to keep
employees if this type of service is required. A rate increase for customers who
require the additional service of garden and lawn waste removal was suggested.
Mr. Kieft stated this would complicate his billing, since some customers do not
have garden and dawn wastes. Trustee Craig suggested that customers buy a book of
coupons, one coupon to be placed on each container of garden wastes_, which would
eliminate billing problems and still :over payment for the removal of the additional
waste material.
Trustee Schleicher summarized the problem by stating that first the Board
must decide what type or types of service shall be required, and secondly, what
maximum rates shall be authorized for such services. The manager was directed
to make a survey of scavenger services provided in.ineighboring communities with
specific information on whether pickups are made at the house or at the curb.
Reports - Communications The manager presented a post budget salary survey.
Trustee Schleicher asked that the survey be
enlarged to show the median salary in each classification and the number of years
of employment.
Trustee Craig asked about the terms of franchise agreements with utility
companies. He stated that the gas company, in locating and repairing a gas leak
in his house servrce, had not restored these areas to their original condition.
The manager stated this restoration was not required. Trustee Schleicher suggested
that such matters be taken up with the local manager of the utility.
Trustee Raff asked that the manager contact the utility companies regarding
the feasibility of putt"i ng all utilities underground over a ten year period.
A telegram to President Finney from organizations asking for a State open
housing law was referred to Mr. Howard Kane, Chairman of the Human Relations
Commission.
Trustee Forrest stated that the Metroplitan Sanitary District was preparing
a three dimensional recreation and flood control plan for the brickyard property
which would be ready iin;;about four weeks. Upon receipt of the plan, he suggested
that a meeting be arranged with the Park Board to discuss the plan.
There being no further business, on motion by Trustee Raff,
seconded by Trustee Craig, the meeting was adjourned at 11 :45 p.m.
