DISCUSSION
Mr. Finkler (1600 Montgomery Rd.)
and Mr. Rummette (16 10 Montgomery Rd.) appeared before the Board to request the
Village's cooperation in the maintenance of the Village's sanitary sewer lines along
Wilmot Rd. Mr. Finkler believes that the current maintenance program should be
increased due to the amount of roots that accumulate in the older sections of the Wilmot
Rd. sewer line. Mr. Finkler and Mr. Rummette both believe that due to the amount of
roots in the line, they and other residents in the area, sustained sewer back ups greater
than at any other time. The Board agreed to have the Village staff look into the matter.
Trustee Seidman suggested that since
several surrounding communities are taking action to ban cigarette machines within their
communities, due to the easy accessibility to the youth, the Village should determine if
similar action is needed within Deerfield. The Board requested the police chief to provide
a report on such activities within the community.
