it could be improved. He will, therefore, submit for Board consideration a rewording
of the liquor license regulations regarding residency requirements.

Liquor:Control Commissioner, had received full information.(including police reports)
concerning petitioners for liquor licenses. He favored a resumption of that practice.
Trustee York asked the petitioner if he was "aware that we are tough on violators ir.
Deerfield ". Mr. Gerald Liu, owner of Hunan Gardens and petitioner, stated that he
knew that and further replied, "As a matter of fact, I appreciate it."

PROPOSED AGREEMENT Trustee Heisler announced that Deerfield
DEERFIELD /BANNOCKBURN had received a proposed agreement: toL 3
NORTH AVE. IMPROVEMENT cooperative effort in improving North Ave-
nue.. Mgr. Franz stated that Bannockburn
was proposing to maintain North Avenue for two years, until 1983, followed by a two
year maintenance program by Deerfield.
Mr. Robert Hamilton, Engineer, of Dave Gewalt & Associates, engineers for Bannockburn,
was present.
He stated that Bannockburn was not proposing that North Avenue be brought.up to MFT
standards. He indicated they were interested only in making it "passable" for 15 -20
miles an hour traffic by patching chuck holes followed by a light seal coating.
[]I
:`4any questions arose which Mr. Hamilton stated he was not prepared or authorized to
answer that evening. It was not clear why Bannockburn should seek a written commit -
merit'from Deerfield regarding cooperation in maintaing North Avenue, since Deerfield
has total responsibility for maintenance of the narrow road (lying entirely within
Deerfield... Bannockburn never having dedicated its portion of land for a full right -of-
way) and Deerfield has never balked at doing some patching and snow plowing over the
past years.
Decision was made to refer the matter to the Village Manager for appropriate staff
investigation including construction, operation and maintenance costs with a report
at a future Board meeting.
REPORTS:
Mgr'. Franz reported that a letter had been received from the Housing Authority of Lake
County regarding their program of assistance in repairing emergency items on the homes
of Senior Citizens and handicapped or disabled persons. He stated that the Human Re-
lations Commission, with Board approval, would like to be involved from public relations
standpoint and help the housing agency come in contact with the seniors in our community
who need help most. He commented that this program, though requiring inspection
by Deerfield's Building and Zoning Department, would not involve Deerfield to the ex-
tent its own program had.last:.year when nine projects were successfully completed with
funds remaining from a Community Development Program:. He will relay the Board's
approval to the Human Relations Commnission who will contact the Board if some commitment
is required.
Responding.to inquiry from Trustee Seidman, Attorney Stucko stated that he would sum-
marize for the Board the recently passed amendments to the Open Meetings Act and de-
velop a plan of procedure for scheduling executive sessions..
_There being no further action to come before the Board, upon motion by Trustee Seidman,
the meeting was adjourned at 8:40 P.M.
