VIII. SPECIAL REPORTS
1. Announcement of the Winter Photo Contest Winners
Mayor DiMaria introduced Gina Schultz of the Community Relations Commission to announce
the Winter Photo Contest winners.
a. Commissioner Schultz said that the Community Relations Commission's purpose is to foster,
encourage, and stimulate the improvement of relations among and between citizens of all races,
creeds, national origins and economic and educational levels; and to provide all individuals
with an equal opportunity to grow and participate to the best of their ability, in the economic,
educational, social and cultural activities available in our community. The Commission sponsors
the Adopt -A -Planter program and the community -wide garage sale, as well as quarterly photo
contests. The Commission also assists the Village by distributing information at the Farmers'
Market and acting as greeters for Village events, including the quarterly Neighborhood Outreach
gatherings.
b. Commissioner Schultz thanked all those who participated in the Winter Photo Contest, which
had the theme "Doors of Morton Grove." She noted there were a number of entries from
participants under age 18, which was refreshing to see. Vivian Gonzalez submitted the winning
photo in the "under age 18" category. The photos needed to be of doors or entryways that
depicted the "Doors of Morton Grove" theme. The adult winners of the Winter Photo Contest
included: Laima Puzzo (with two winning photos), and Brian Kabat, whose photo was also
selected as "Overall Winner."

SPECIAL REPORTS (continued)
{Minutes'of ApriCB, 2619 'Board Meeting
c. Commissioner Schultz said the winning photos will be displayed at Village Hall and posted on the
Village's Facebook page.
d. Upcoming Photo Contest themes include "Working in Morton Grove" and "Playing in Morton
Grove." These can include historical photos or current. Commissioner Schultz said that the
Commission encourages creativity and new perspectives on its themes.
Commissioner Downing invited the assemblage to come to the next Community Relations
Commission meeting, which is tomorrow night at 6:30 p.m. in the second floor of Village Hall.
She added that the Commission currently has 10 members, but is always looking for more!
f. Mayor DiMaria thanked Commissioner Schultz for an excellent report, and said that the
revamped Community Relations Commission is doing an excellent job!
2. Presentation Regarding Residential and Commercial Electric Supply by the Northern Illinois
Municipal Electric Collaborative (NIMEC)
e.
Mayor DiMaria introduced David Hoover of NIMEC to make this presentation.
a. Mr. Hoover said that NIMEC is basically a purchasing group working with 126 municipalities.
Because they do about $20M of annual purchasing, they are usually able to get more aggressive
pricing. Currently, they bid out the Village's street lighting program. NIMEC also works on
Municipal Aggregation, negotiating power rates. They served the Village in this regard from 2012
through 2016, saving the average resident an annual amount of $235 in their electric bills.
The program was very successful. Then ComEd changed its rate program, thus becoming less
expensive, so many people switched back to ComEd. The company releases its residential rates
every year—they're due to release them in the next few weeks. Mr. Hoover said that NIMEC will
then test the market to see if they could negotiate a lower rate for its municipalities. They have a
couple of new programs, he said. One program's primary driver is to help residents save money.
Another program that municipalities may possible want to get into is 100% green power. People
would pay the same rates and they do with ComEd, but with a guarantee of 100% green power.
NIMEC will discuss these programs more fully with the Village Board once ComEd releases its
annual residential electric rates and NIMEC has a chance to test the market in search of lower
rates for electricity.
b. Trustee Thill asked why ComEd was lowering its rates. Mr. Hoover explained that ComEd is no
longer interested in purchasing and generating power. ComEd is strictly a delivery agent now.
He said that there is actual a State agency which negotiates ComEd's price. About half of the
municipalities NIMEC services have found an electrical rate lower than ComEd's.
c. Trustee Thill asked if ComEd's "smart grid" had an impact on pricing. Mr. Hoover said, yes, that
is part of its delivery system. ComEd is a monopoly for electricity delivery and the smart grid has,
in fact, made the delivery system more stable.
Mayor DiMaria thanked Mr. Hoover for his time.

PRESIDENT'S REPORT
1. Mayor DiMaria proclaimed April 26, 2019, as "Arbor Day" in the Village. This is a day originally
intended to be set aside specifically for the planting of trees. Mayor DiMaria noted that Morton
Grove has the distinction of being a "Tree City USA," and pointed out the many benefits of trees
and the many ways in which trees serve as a resource. He urged all citizens to support efforts to
protect our trees and woodlands and to support the Village's urban forestry program.
a. Trustee Thill asked Public Works Director Joe Dahm about the current tree program operating in
conjunction with area schools. Mr. Dahm responded that Village Arborist David Hoffman has
about 300 saplings that will be distributed to the participating schools for children to take home
and plant.
2. Mayor DiMaria reminded the assemblage to sign up for "Smart 911." By doing so, residents are
able to proactively provide information to facilitate a fast and accurate response. With Smart911,
residents choose what information to include and what details are important to share with first
responders. Interested residents can learn more and/or sign up at www.smart911.com.
Mayor DiMaria said the Smart911 app is available on the Apple App Store or Google Play.
He said that anyone with questions should call the MG Police Department at 847-470-5200.
3. Lastly, Mayor DiMaria noted that the Village will be holding an Electronics and Document
Destruction Recycling Event on Saturday, May 18, 2019, from 9:00 a.m. to noon at the Morton
Grove Civic Center, 6140 Dempster. More information, such as what will or will not be accepted

A. Village Administrator
1. Mr. Czerwinski presented fora first reading Resolution 19-02, Authorizing the Establishment
of Interested Parties Registries and Adopting Rules For Such Registries for Redevelop-
ment Project Areas in the Village of Morton Grove.
He said that, in order to comply with the Tax Increment Allocation Redevelopment Act, an
"Interested Parties" Registry needs to be established and Registry Rules need to be adopted for
such a registry. This Ordinance creates the Village of Morton Grove's Interested Parties Registry
for each individual redevelopment project created under the Act, whether now existing or created
after the date of the adoption of this Ordinance. Mr. Czerwinski further explained that this will
provide an opportunity for an individual or group of individuals to get involved. He noted that there
was one correction on the Ordinance (an incorrect address for the Village) that will be fixed in
time for the second reading.

'Minutes of Aprit 8, 2019 Board Meeting
A. Village Administrator: (continued)
b. Trustee Minx asked if "interested parties" who want to attend the annual TIF Meeting have to
register, Mr. Czerwinski said they would, but taxing bodies would automatically be invited to the
annual TIF Meeting; there is no need for taxing bodies to register.
2. Next, Mr. Czerwinski provided an update on the Morton Grove -Niles Water Commission Project.
He said that River Drive reconstruction is on the way, along with other pavement repairs on the
route of the transmission main. The South pumping station on Oakton has a new intake valve,
while the North pumping station on National Avenue is having its intake valve refurbished.
Construction on the Church Street Intermediate pumping station is progressing, with the pump
scheduled to be delivered and installed in June.
3. Mr. Czerwinski announced that there would be a Special Meeting of the village Board on May 6,
2019, at 7:00 p.m. to provide an update on existing TIF redevelopment areas. The Board will also
consider setting the date for a Public Hearing on the Sawmill Station redevelopment area.

A. Trustee Grear:
Trustee Grear had no report this evening.
B. Trustee Minx:
1. Trustee Minx presented Resolution 19-20, Authorizing the Execution of a Contract With
Bill's Complete Landscape Service, Inc. For the 2019 Landscape Maintenance Program.
She explained that this will authorize the execution of a contract for the annual landscape
maintenance program, which is necessary to maintain landscaping on Village -owned properties
and rights-of-way throughout the village.
Trustee Minx said this contract was bid through a public process in accordance with the Village
Code. Three sealed bids were received. Bill's Complete Landscape Service, Inc. submitted the
second -lowest bid, but the Village's Municipal code specifies that the purchasing agent shall
determine the lowest responsible bidder to be a local business whose price is within 5 percent or
$15,000 (which is lower) of the lowest responsible bidder. The purchasing agent has determined
that the lowest responsible local bidder is Bill's Complete Landscape Service, Inc. Their proposal
amount is $5,452 Tess than the Engineer's Estimate of Cost.

2. Next, Trustee Minx presented Resolution 1921, Authorizing the Execution of a Contract
With Precision Pavement Markings, Inc. For the 2019 Pavement Marking Program.
She explained that the annual pavement marking program is necessary to maintain the visibility
of the centerlines, stop bars, lane fines, and crosswalks on Village streets.
Trustee Minx said that the Village's Public Works Department participated in a municipal partner-
ing initiative in 2012 through 2018 to procure pavement marking services. The program has been
administered once by the City of Highland Park and once by the Village of Morton Grove. The
Illinois Governmental Joint Purchasing Act and Morton Grove's Municipal Code allows this
cooperative procurement program. The renewable periods of the pavement marking contract
have expired and the work for pavement marking services needs to be bid again. This year,
the Village of Wilmette agreed to lead the administration of the bidding process for a group of
municipalities consisting of Bannockburn, Evanston, Glencoe, Glenview, Highland Park,
Lake Zurich, Lincolnshire, Morton Grove, North Chicago, Palatine, and Wheeling. The contract
was advertised and sealed bids received. The low bidder is Precision Pavement Markings, Inc.
The contract is for one year but can be renewed twice. Morton Grove's portion of the cost for the
jointly bid work is estimated to be $30,152. The budgeted amount is $30,000.
Trustee Minx pointed out that, since this is a unit price contract, the final contract amount will be
based on the actual quantity of work performed. She then moved to approve Resolution 19-21,
seconded by Trustee Grear.

B. Trustee Minx: (continued)
a. She explained that the Morton Grove -Niles Water Commission (MGNWC) opened bids
under Contract No. 12 for the Reservoir Control Valve Replacement at both the Village of
Morton Grove and the Village of Niles Pumping Station Reservoirs. The firm of Gaskill and
Walton Construction was awarded the contract based upon their low base bid and alternate bid
amounts. Six alternate bids exist for work on the reservoirs in both Morton Grove and Niles.
The Morton Grove Pumping Station Operations found it necessary to move forward with
Alternate No. 6 for installation and lowering of the new control valve to the basement floor of the
MG South Pumping Station for safer installation and improved access for future maintenance.
b. Trustee Minx said the contract price for this work is $113,280. She moved to approve
Resolution 19-23, seconded by Trustee Witko.

Trustee Greer asked if this was being paid for by the MGNWC. Mr. Czerwinski said it was being
paid for by the Village via an Enterprise Fund, because it's after the meter, so it is the Village's
responsibility. He noted that the current valve is in a precarious position on a gangway. This was
bid as part of other work for the MGNWC, which helped control the pricing.
Lastly, Trustee Minx brought forward for a first reading Ordinance 19-01, Approving an
Amendment to a Special Use Permit for a School -Commercial Tutoring/Learning Center
(For Children From Pre -School Through High School) at 8145 River Drive, Morton Grove.
She explained that, in May of 2017, the Board had approved a special use for a school -
commercial tutoring/ learning center for By Your Side Autism Therapy Service, LLC (the
Applicant). The existing space occupies 8,191 square feet of the 73,897 square foot building. The
Applicant is seeking approval of an amendment to their special use permit to expand and modify
the approved floor plan to relocate and expand their administrative space and reconfigure and
expand the area dedicated to therapy. The proposed expansion would increase their tenant
space 3,660 square feet, for a total of 11,851 square feet. The approved special use permit
allowed a maximum of 25 students and 30 staff members at any one time. The learning center
currently operates with 10-12 children and 13-18 staff on site. The Applicant is proposing to
expand the floor area while maintaining the caps on students and staffing as specified in the
approved special use permit. The Applicant is aware that if they wish to exceed those student and
staffing levels, they would need to file the proper application and supporting documents to seek
approval of another amendment to their special use prior to scheduling or implementing such
increases.
Trustee Minx said the application was reviewed by the Chairperson of the Traffic Safety
Commission, who determined the proposal would have an insignificant negative impact and
waived a full TSC review. No changes to the exterior of the building are proposed, so review by
the Appearance Commission was not required. The Plan Commission held a public hearing on
the proposal on March 18, and ultimately voted 7-0 to recommend approval of the application,
with conditions.
