S. BOT 04-06: Code Amendment Regarding Storm Water Detention Variances |
(Ordinance on Second Reading) |
Ordinance amending Title 15, Chapter 151, Section 151.56 of the Lombard Village |
Code regarding Storm Water Detention Variances. |
(Item taken out of order as first item of the evening) Dave Gorman from Community |
Development in attendance to discuss this item with the committee. Gorman: reviewed |
item with committee members present Only adds one item to the existing code. Sebby: |
verified the fees with Dave Gorman and Dave Dratnol. Should the fee be kicked up by |
the $150.00? Gorman: I would propose that it is left as is. This will be a much quicker |
process. Mahal (R): would someone still need to go out and look at it? Sebby: it still |
benefits the person that we are doing this for. Much faster process. Kaforski: I think |
that if we can save someone some money that we should, even if it is just a little. |
Gorman: this is for multi-family properties. Sebby: those are all income producing |
properties, not residential. Gorman: could I suggest $50.00 instead of $150.00? |
Kaforski: this would encourage more properties to possibly add a stall. Mahal (D): how |
many of these come across your desk? Gorman: at least 10. Fee of $50.00/500 feet or |
less. |
It was moved by Kaforski, seconded by Frerichs, that this matter be |
recommended to the Board of Trustees for approval. The motion carried by the |
following vote: |
Enactment No: Ordinance 5505 |
Performance Specification in regard to street lights. (DISTRICT ALL) |
Dratnol: reviewed with the committee members present. Mahal (D): does this limit us |
by not letting us see the new companies out there? Dratnol: do we want to be the |
guinea pig? New information is regarding the main street lighting options. You had |
asked about a sample. There is no sample of everything that we are talking about using |
in the Chgoland area. The answer is no. There are places that you can go to look at |
the different components. They are listed in your book. Last 4 pages are the |
manufacturers that we are seriously taking a look at. ( Dave displayed the Sternberg |
base) Frerichs: are the sidewalks going to be blocked off in anyway if we have these |
big bases installed? Dratnol: we will be sure there is enough room. Frerichs: is there |
any price criteria that we are looking at? Dratnol: no. Even though we are looking at 2 |
bases that are very similar, you wouldn't catch the difference unless you were really |
looking for it. Sebby: now that we know what we want to go with, maybe we need to |
look at what is more cost effective. Mahal (D): it will put the bidding competition to the |
manufacturers which would be to our benefit. Sebby: do we have any estimate to a |
cost of these? Dratnol: no. If we are not ordering from them, they have no reason to |
give us a reasonable price. Frerichs: banners up on Westmore and Main. They do not |
match up and are not always installed on the same side of the pole. Dratnol: we can |
attach the banner arms to these. Sebby: I think that we should get some pricing on this. |
Mahal (R): all black, correct? Dratnol: yes. Arnold: I have noticed a lot of vandalism to |
the lights on the prairie path. Dratnol: there has been a lot of vandalism. We are |
looking at maybe something other than glass. Arnold: maybe some kind of plastic |
instead of glass. Dratnol: depends on what is available. Sebby: gave direction to |
Dave Dratnol to proceed and get pricing. |
Z. Sidewalk Policy Recommendation |
Recommendation from the Public Works Committee to increase the Sidewalk Program |
by an additional $70,000 for a total of $150,000 to fund trip hazard repairs. |
John Burg: need to discuss if we need a citizen participation policy for sidewalks. |
Dratnol: money that is budgeted for this year is $50,000 for trip hazards, $30,000 for |
other repairs. There is $100,000 worth of trip hazards that need to be repaired. That |
means that all of the money budgeted for this year will go towards trip hazards and not |
even repair them all. There will be no repair to general sidewalks. Kaforski: if money is |
available after trip hazards are repaired. The other means to be put on the back burner. |
Mahal (D): what are we saying - that we are going to catch up after a few years? |
Kaforski: I think it will catch up and we need to address trip hazards first. Sebby: |
sounds like there needs to be at least $75,000 for trip hazards, then money over and |
above for worst first and deteriorated sidewalk. Frerichs: I thought that by 2005 the |
village was supposed to have sidewalks everywhere? Dratnol: the fill in the gap |
program has been completed. Arnold: I think that if Bill Mueller wants a policy for |
resident participation we should investigate it. |
It was moved by Arnold, seconded by Kaforski, that this matter be recommend |
to the Board of Trustees for Approval Committee recommends increasing to |
funding amount to $150,000. General repair has not been able to be done for last |
2 years. Instructed Dave Dratnol to draft memo regarding disbursement of funds. |
The motion carried by a voice vote |

Recommendation of the Transportation & Safety Committee to not establish a traffic |

there. |
It was moved by Arnold, seconded by Mahal, that this matter be referred to The |
committee is not recommending any traffic calming at this time. Item sent back |
to the Transportation and Safety Committee. The motion carried by a voice vote |

that has been paid. Burg: asked for letter to be sent to him. |
