Chairperson

President Mueller had no report as the Committee had not met since the last Board

meeting.

Village Manager/Village Board Comments

President Mueller spoke of the death of John Noel who passed away after a long battle

with prostate cancer. Mr. Noel was on the DuPage Mayors and Managers Council and

was always someone you could turn to. He asked for a moment of silence and extended

condolences to the family.

President Mueller mentioned that health issues had been discussed that morning at

Rotary, as the Community had lost two good leaders recently. He urged residents to

take time for their health and see their doctor.

Village Clerk O'Brien talked about a luncheon hosted at Lilacia Park for the Clerks in

DuPage County. President Mueller served as the master chef working the barbecue and

the master planner was Deputy Village Clerk Barb Johnson, with the help of Denise

Kalke and Diane Jantelezio. She mentioned that the Glenbard East Chamber Choir

provided entertainment and Lilacia Park was in full bloom.

President Mueller spoke of the Historical Society Tag Days, May 11 and 12, 2006 and

urged residents to respond with a contribution.

In other announcements, President Mueller mentioned "Cop on the Top" at Dunkin'

Donuts May 19, 2006, to raise funds for the Annual Torch Run for the Special Olympics.

He said a free donut and a limited supply of mugs would be given and items available

for purchase were t-shirts, hats and raffle tickets to win a Harley Davidson.

Trustee Soderstrom spoke of the bike collection program for the donation and

restoration of used bikes to be sent to underprivileged countries. This would take place

on May 13, 2006 at two collection locations.

President Mueller indicated that wheel chairs would also be collected on May 13, 2006

between 10:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. at both fire stations. He stressed that bicycles

donated do not have to be in operable condition as there is an organization that rebuilds

the bikes. He said the Rotary has worked for many years to eradicate polio. The polio

vaccine is not available to many areas in some countries due to the lack of a way to get

the vaccines, but with these bicycles this can happen.

Trustee Tross talked about Item N on the Consent Agenda which relates to Blue

Cross/Blue Shield insurance, and pointed out that he pays for his insurance through the

Village Plan. He also disclosed his solicitation of Waste Management in the capacity of

contributions for Cruise Nights and the Art Fair.
