He was raised in Elk Grove Village, where he attended Conant High School, and graduated
from the University of Illinois Champaign -Urbana with a Bachelor's degree in History. Jeff

2. Special Presentation to Ralph Czerwinski
a.

e.
Fire Chief Tom Friel said that, in the late 1960's, a group of fire chiefs had a vision of an
inter -agency cooperative, and formulated a system to assist one another in time of need.
Neighbors helping neighbors was nothing new, but fire departments helping fire departments
was a unique concept back then. From that spirit of cooperation evolved the Mutual Aid Box
Alarm System (MABAS) of Northern Illinois. The concept has spread throughout the State of
Illinois and even to other states.
Chief Friel said there are currently 1,200 fire departments in MABAS, which is now divided into
69 divisions. As one of the earlier joiners of MABAS, Morton Grove is in Division 3, along with
17 other communities, including Highland Park, Glencoe, Winnetka, Wilmette, Lincolnwood,
and Des Plaines.
Morton Grove's Village Administrator, Ralph Czerwinski, has had a long and storied career in
the Fire Service. He served as Morton Grove's Fire Chief from 1990 to 2004, and as Skokie's
Fire Chief from 2005 to 2015, a total of 24 years as a Fire Chief. During that time, he served as
the MABAS Division 3 president, and spearheaded a number of special initiatives, including
securing State funding for the fire service's special rescue teams and for vehicles used by all
17 communities.
Division 3 wants to recognize Mr. Czerwinski's long history of service. They went to renowned
sculptor, Michael Roach—who has designed awards for the American Hockey Association as
well as the Naismith Trophy, which is awarded annually to the players of the year in men and
women's college basketball and whose first recipient was Michael Jordan—who had been
commissioned to do a series of Fire Department remembrances. One of those sculptures is
being presented this evening to Ralph Czerwinski in recognition of his 24 years of service. The
sculpture, which Chief Friel said was appropriate, is named "Taking Command." The Board and
assemblage applauded Mr. Czerwinski.
Mr. Czerwinski thanked the firefighters, stating that he had first joined the fire service in 1975
and it is a great career. He was happy and thankful to see representatives from the Skokie Fire
Department in attendance tonight too. He said the Board really supports the Fire Department,
and without the vision of the chiefs, the Board's support, and the great staff of firefighters, he
wouldn't be here this evening. He told the firefighters in the assemblage, "Enjoy your career; it's
the best one out there." And he told the assemblage, "You are served well by the men and
women in the fire department."

Proclamations
Mayor DiMaria proclaimed the week of May 1—May 7 as "Municipal Clerks Week" in Morton
Grove. He stated that this office is the oldest among public servants, and the Municipal Clerk
provides the professional link between citizens and the local governing bodies and agencies of
government. He encouraged everyone to extend their appreciation to Morton Grove's Municipal
Clerk, Connie Travis.
IX. CLERK'S REPORT
Clerk Travis reported that 82 of the 85 planters in the Community Relations Commission's
"Adopt A Planter" initiative have now been adopted. Planting dates are May 14-15. Also, the
Commission is still accepting photos for their photo contest.
X. STAFF REPORTS
A. Village Administrator:
1. Village Administrator Czerwinski said that he's really proud of the community's participation as
regards the "Adopt A Planter" program. He also encouraged everyone to read the latest Village
newsletter. The newest edition of The Exchange is very well organized and has information for
people of all ages within it. He thanked staff for doing an outstanding job on this newsletter.
2. Mr. Czerwinski noted that the Morton Grove Days Commission is looking for volunteers to help
with this year's four-day event. Residents interested in volunteering can go to the Commission's
website or call Village Hall.
3. Mr. Czerwinski encouraged residents to go to the next Neighborhood Outreach, which will be
held on June 15 at Edison School, 8200 Gross Point Road.
4. Mr. Czerwinski reminded the assemblage that there will be a Spring Famers' Market at the Civic
Center on Saturday, May 7. The Farmers' Market officially opens on June 4 and will run through

5. Mr. Czerwinski elaborated on a report Trustee Witko had made at the last Board meeting, about
the "Dough For Doughboy" fundraising effort. The Doughboy is a statue at the Morton Grove
Public Library commemorating the veterans of World War I, and the funds used to initially
install it were raised by the Morton Grove Days Commission back in the early 1920's.

6. Mr. Czerwinski said that, this past Friday, the Village resumed their eNews blasts, and hopefully
will push out a new blast every other week. He said that fewer than 1,000 residents have signed
up for the eNewsletter, adding that he'd like to see that number double.
B. Corporation Counsel:
Corporation Counsel Liston had no report.
XI. TRUSTEES' REPORTS
A. Trustee Grear:
1. Trustee Grear presented Ordinance 16-07, Amending Title 8 Entitled "Public Health and
Safety" of the Municipal Code to Add a New Chapter 11 Establishing a "Special Event"
Permitting Process.
a.
b.
c.
This is the second reading of this ordinance.
Trustee Grear explained that special events, such as festivals, concerts, and fun runs, enhance
the quality of life and community character by helping to create a vibrant and interesting
community. Such events often involve advance planning, logistics, and potential costs and
liabilities for the Village. The Village may be required to allocate Village personnel, equipment,
and property for special events, which, in addition to subjecting the Village to costs and
potential liability, may interfere with the normal operations of the Village and the safe use of the
public ways and Village property.
Trustee Grear said this ordinance will establish a permitting process for special events requiring
Village services. Applications must be submitted at least 90 days prior to the event, unless
alcohol is expected to be served or more than 500 people are expected to attend the event,
in which case the application must be submitted to the Village by September 1 of the year
preceding the proposed special event. Event organizers are required to obtain adequate levels
of insurance and additional permits for activities such as food sales and pyrotechnics, and
provide the Village with sufficient additional information in order to enhance the Village's ability
to schedule needed personal and equipment.
Trustee Grear moved to adopt Ordinance 16-07, seconded by Trustee Minx.
Trustee Thill asked if the "mega -picnics" held annually in St. Paul Woods pay for the use of
Morton Grove personnel. Mr. Czerwinski said its done on a case-by-case basis. If the Village
incurs extraordinary expenses, they have to cover it. If what they're asking for can be covered
by on -staff personnel, they won't be charged. He said each situation would be reviewed to
make a determination of how much staff time may be necessary.

individual events. He thanked Mr. Czerwinski and Corporation Counsel Liston for their efforts on
this Ordinance. Mr. Czerwinski said that all of the staff reviewed the Ordinance; Ms. Liston was
instrumental in putting it together, but staff assisted greatly by reaching out across the country
to get the "best of similar ordinances.

B. Trustee Minx:
Trustee Minx had no formal report, but congratulated Mr. Czerwinski on the honor bestowed on
him earlier this evening.
C. Trustee Pietron:
Trustee Pietron presented Resolution 16-30, Authorizing the Acceptancde of a Material
Proposal From Ozinga Ready Mix for the 2016 Material Purchasing Program—Concrete.
He explained that the Village has an annual program, dependent on funding appropriations,
to purchase construction materials like asphalt and concrete to be used to maintain Village
rights-of-way and property. The purchase of construction materials is paid for using General
Funds, Motor Fuel Tax Funds, and Enterprise Funds. The use of Motor Fuel Tax funds is
administratively controlled by the State, which requires bidding procedures and contract
documents. This contract was bid through a public process in accordance with the municipal
code and Illinois Department of Transportation requirements..
b. Trustee Pietron said the estimated contract value is $18,000, but since this is a unit price
contract, the final contract amount will be based on the actual quantity of work performed.
Trustee Pietron moved to approve Resolution 16-30, seconded by Trustee Thill.
Motion passed: 6 ayes, 0 nays.

TRUSTEES' REPORTS (continued)
D. Trustee Ramos:
1.
a.
Trustee Ramos presented for a first reading Ordinance 16-09, Amending Title 5, "Motor
Vehicles and Traffic," Chapter 1 Entitled "Traffic Administration and Enforcement,"
Section 4 Entitled "Experimental or Temporary Regulations" of the Village of Morton
Grove Municipal Code.
He explained that, currently, Title 5, Chapter 1, Section 4 entitled "Experimental or Temporary
Regulations" allows the Police Chief, with the approval of the Village Engineer, to implement
experimental or emergency traffic regulation without Board approval for up to 90 days. The
Village Administrator has recommended that this section be updated to provide that, if, after
the initial 90 -day trial period, the Police Chief and Village Administrator recommend the
temporary regulations be made permanent, such regulation shall be extended until it has
been approved or rejected by the Village Board, but not for more than an additional 90 days.
As this is a first reading, no action will be taken this evening.
2. Next, Trustee Ramos introduced for a first reading Ordinance 16-10, Amending Title 5,
Chapter 13, Article A-4 Entitled "Traffic Schedules" of the Municipal Code of the Village
of Morton Grove.
a.
b.
c.
He explained that the Traffic Safet Commission had received a request for stop signs to be
installed on Luna Avenue and Davis Street, as well as "Watch That Child" signs along the
9100 block of Luna Avenue. Two "Watch That Child" signs were subsequently installed under
the authority of the Director of Public Works. The Luna -Davis intersection currently has no
traffic control. During the course of two Traffic Safety Commission reviews, the Village
Administrator suggested addressing the root problem described by the residents by establishing
a temporary, experimental traffic regulation prohibiting left turns from westbound Church Street
onto southbound Luna Avenue.
The residents and Traffic Safety Commission felt that the temporary, experimental traffic
regulation did not satisfy the residents' original desire for stops signs and recommended to
remove the left turn restriction. The Traffic Safety Commission concurred with the petitioner's
request and recommended the Village establish a 4 -way stop intersection on Luna Avenue at its
intersection with Davis Street.
As this is a first reading, no action will be taken this evening.
Trustee Grear asked Mr. DeMonte if there was a way the Village lets people know about a new
traffic control device once it's been installed. Mr. DeMonte responded that, in this case, he's
ordered flashing lights to let people know about the new stop signs, as well as reflectors. Also,
stop bars will be added during the striping program.

:Minutes of April 25, 2016Board Meeting
Trustee Thill presented Ordinance 16-08, Amending Title 9, Chapter 7, To Restructure
Ambulance Service Fees.
He explained that this ordinance amends Title 9, Chapter 7 of the Village's Municipal Code to
restructure and establish reasonable and necessary fees to support the delivery of high quality
Emergency Medical Services (EMS) to the residents and guests of the community.
The fire department routinely reviews the fees charged for the provision of ambulance services
in order to ensure their appropriateness and parity with service fees charged by other fire
departments in the Chicago metro area, as well as the local MABAS Division. Village staff has
reviewed the fees charged by other communities and has proposed modifications which match
the current or proposed fees of Niles, Skokie, North Maine, Park Ridge, and Des Plaines.
Trustee Thill moved to adopt Ordinance 15-08, seconded by Trustee Pietron.

2. Next, Trustee Thill presented Resolution 16-31, Authorizing the Execution of an Inter-
governmental Agreement Between the Villages of Morton Grove, Niles, and Skokie for
Mutual Aid Ambulance Billing.
He explained that this resolution will amend an Intergovernmental Agreement established in
2009 between the Villages of Morton Grove, Niles, and Skokie which provides that residents
of each of those communities will be charged the "resident rate" for services, regardless of
which department responds to the 911 call. In 2015, Morton Grove's ambulances transported
approximately 245 non -Morton Grove residents from Niles and Skokie. This intergovernmental
agreement allows the assessment of service fees for these transports, and ensures that Morton
Grove residents are charged the resident rate in the event that a Niles or Skokie ambulance
delivers service to them during a mutual aid request.
Trustee Thill moved, seconded by Trustee Witko, to approve Resolution 16-31.

4. Trustee Thill said another community organization that does small electronics recycling is Shore

encouraged residents to take advantage of their recycling services.
5. Trustee Thill commented that the Public Works Department has 450 river birch trees that they
will be distributing to school children to celebrate Arbor Day. He asked Mr. DeMonte to give Bill
Burns, in the Village's Forestry Division, an "atta boy" because the tree distribution was his idea.
6. Trustee Thill announced that the Taste of Morton Grove has raised nearly a million dollars
($989,595) between 2001 and 2016 for its many local beneficiaries. This is a volunteer
organization open to everyone. He complimented Mike Simkins who's chaired this event for the

This Ordinance will repeal in its entirety Title 2, Chapter 15 entitled Emergency Telephone
System Board of the Village's Municipal Code effective January 1, 2017.
Public Act 99-0006 amends the Emergency Telephone System Act, 50 ILCS 750/1 and
requires Emergency Telephone System Boards ("ETSB") that do not have a public safety
answering point in its jurisdiction be consolidated through an intergovernmental agreement
to create a Joint Emergency Telephone System Board (JETSB). The Village of Morton
Grove along with other municipalities will, pursuant to Resolution 16-32 enter into an
intergovernmental agreement to form a JETSB which complies with the new law. The law
further requires Morton Grove to dissolve its current ETSB, effective January 1, 2017,
subject to the state of Illinois' approval of the consolidation plan set forth in the IGA.
This ordinance therefore will dissolve the existing Village of Morton Grove ETSB in
compliance with the new law.

This Resolution authorizes the execution of an Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) to
establish a Joint Emergency Telephone Systems Board with the Village of Glenview and
other governmental agencies.
On June 29, 2015, the state of Illinois passed Public Act 99-0006 which amended the
Emergency Telephone Systems Act, 50 ILCS 750 et. seq. The Act requires local
governments to enter into an intergovernmental agreement (IGA) to create a Joint
Emergency Telephone System Board (JETSB) so that all 9-1-1 centers serve populations
over 25,000, and have a public safety answering points (PSAP) within the jurisdiction of
the members of the IGA. Morton Grove currently receives dispatch services from Glenview
which is a PSAP. The Village along with other municipalities that receive dispatch services
from Glenview has negotiated an IGA to form a JETSB. Under the IGA, the collection and
disbursement of 9-1-1 surcharges will be accomplished through the Village of Glenview
who is responsible for the maintenance and operation of the overall 9-1-1 system. The IGA
will comply with the new law and must be approved by a resolution of all parties to the
agreement by July 1, 2016.
Police, Administration and Legal Departments
There is no budget impact
Village staff, as part of their normal work activities will perform the management
and implementation of this agreement.

steps to cooperate and assist any Party seeking to conduct such a review or audit.
5

grants and surcharge disbursements received and the use of those funds in accordance with
applicable law and generally accepted accounting principles. The Custodian shall maintain
such books and records for a minimum of five years. All such books and records shall be
available for review or audit by the Department of State Police, its representatives, the Illinois
Auditor General, and other governmental entities with monitoring authority, upon reasonable
notice and during normal business hours. The Custodian and the Board shall cooperate fully
with any such review or audit.

Board Members, whether to admit the applying entity as a Subsequent Party. Each Party and
Subsequent Party delegates to its respective Board Member the express authority to act on
behalf of that Party or Subsequent Party in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.
C. As a condition to becoming a Subsequent Party, each Subsequent Party must
enter into an agreement pursuant to which Glenview shall provide dispatch services to that
Subsequent Party, similar in form and scope to the Dispatch Service Agreements.
D. Any Party or Subsequent Party may terminate its status as such and withdraw
from the Board by providing at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days written notice to the
Custodian stating its effective withdrawal date and identifying the joint emergency telephone
system board that such Party or Subsequent Party will join upon termination and withdrawal
from the Board. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if applicable law is amended such that the
Parties' participation in a joint emergency telephone systems board is no longer required, then
any Party may terminate its status as a Party and withdraw from the Board upon thirty (30) days
written notice to the Custodian, and without the need to identify any other joint emergency
telephone systems board that it intends to join.
E. Any Party or Subsequent Party that terminates its status and withdraws from the
Board, shall, after the effective date of the withdrawal, receive a final distribution from the Fund
in proportion to its remaining balance of funds in the Fund. Such distribution shall be made in
accordance with Section 7 of this Agreement and any other Board rules and procedures with
respect to Fund expenditures.
F. Upon expiration or termination of any Party's Dispatch Service Agreement with
Glenview, the Board may, in its discretion and upon passage of a resolution, terminate that

To establish a new standing commission of the Village entitled "Morton Grove
Special Events Commission" to plan and operate multiple day events in the Village
including the annual Independence Day Festival.
The Morton Grove Days Commission is an organization made up of residents, civic
groups, Park District representatives, Village Officials, and staff who work together to
plan and operate the Village's annual Independence Day festival, a multiple -day
festival which includes a parade, carnival, live entertainment, food, refreshments, and
fireworks. Currently, expenses for the festival are paid through funds raised by the
Commission from sponsorships, carnival revenue, entrance fees and the sale of food
and beverages, with financial support from the Village for payment of liability
insurance and overtime expenses for public safety and public works personnel. The
Morton Grove Days Commission members recently voted to have the Village assume
operational responsibility for the event in order to provide oversight for the use of
Village resources and funds, and to provide insurance and indemnification coverage
for event volunteers. This ordinance creates a standing commission comprised of
representatives from the Police and Public Works Department, the Park District, the
Village Board, the current Morton Grove Days Commission and local residents which
will coordinate the planning and operations of the event. The original Morton Grove
Days Commission will remain a 501 (c) (3) not-for-profit and will raise funds for the
Independence Day festival and other Village events; and
Public Works Department

The Finance and Administration Department will absorb the management and oversee

To amend the Municipal Code - Title 5, Chapter 13A entitled "Traffic Schedules" to
change the intersection of Luna Avenue and Davis Street to a 4 -way stop intersection.
The Traffic Safety Commission received a request for stop signs on Luna Avenue at its
intersection with Davis Street and "Watch That Child" signs along the 9100 block of
Luna Avenue. Two "Watch That Child" signs were subsequently installed under the
authority of the Director of Public Works. This intersection currently has no traffic
control. During the course of two Traffic Safety Commission reviews, the Village
Administrator suggested addressing the root problem described by the residents and a
temporary, experimental traffic regulation was established for 90 days to prohibit left
turns from westbound Church Street onto southbound Luna Avenue. The residents and
Traffic Safety Commission considered the temporary, experimental traffic regulation to
not satisfy the original desire of the residents for stop signs and recommended to remove
the left turn restriction. The Traffic Safety Commission concurred with the petitioner's
request and recommended the Village of Morton Grove establish a 4 -way stop
intersection on Luna Avenue at its intersection with Davis Street.

SECTION 4 ENTITLED "RESTRICTED PARKING STREETS"
OF THE MUNICIPAL CODE OF THE Viii AGE OF MORTON GROVE
Introduced: May 9, 2016
Purpose: To prohibit all -day parking by Metra commuters in order to increase the on -street parking
supply for residents and businesses on Narragansett Avenue.
Background: The Traffic Safety Commission (TSC) received a request for temporary experimental parking
restrictions to be installed on Narragansett Avenue between Hennings Court and Dempster
Street and subsequently to make a recommendation to the Village Board whether or not to
make this restriction permanent. TSC reviewed this request at their April 2016 meeting. There
are existing parking restrictions on this segment of Narragansett that do not meet the needs of
the residents and businesses. Business owners have asked the Village to address the
inadequate parking regulations three times since 2010. The Police Chief made an
experimental regulation prohibiting parking on the east side of Narragansett Avenue except for
vehicles displaying a Village -issued hang tag displayed in the front windshield of the parked
vehicle. He also made an experimental regulation limiting parking to a 3 -hour duration on the
west side of Narragansett Avenue from 6:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. except for vehicles displaying a
Village -issued hang tag displayed in the front windshield of the parked vehicle and prohibiting
all parking between 4:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m. every day. The experimental regulations were
established on January 1, 2016, expired on March 29, 2016, and have been extended to June 30,
2016. Residents and businesses have asked the parking regulations be made permanent.
Village staff evaluated the temporary, experimental regulations and supports making them
permanent. The Traffic Safety Commission also recommends the parking restriction thereby
making this a new zoned parking area.
