Week. Captain Porter goes to every school in the community to teach children about fire
safety. All the schools are invited to participate in the poster contest. This year, 188 entries
were submitted.
V.
SPECIAL REPORTS (continued)
b. Captain Porter noted that the Firefighters Association reviewed every poster and judged them
based on how correct they were, how clear the message was, and the artwork. He said it was

fighters Association also sponsors the awards.
C. Captain Porter said the winners in each category will receive two awards: a Ben Franklin
50 -cent piece (because of Ben Franklin's contribution to fire safety) and a plaque with a
digitized photo of their poster on it.
d. The winners were as follows:

RESIDENTS' COMMENTS (Agenda Items Only)
Tony Kovacs, 8302 Austin, Mr. Kovacs said he appreciates the Board's work on the 2011
Budget in trying to keep taxes low without doing any service cuts, but felt they had missed an
opportunity to enhance fees. He suggested that the discounted rate for vehicle stickers for
seniors be eliminated. Mr. Kovacs said that it's not necessarily the case that seniors are the
poorest segment of the population. It's true that seniors are not receiving a cost of living in-
crease in Social Security next year, but there are many non - senior households not getting a
paycheck at all. He said it's difficult to justify reduced rates for vehicle stickers given the
Village's economic condition. He felt that eliminating the $30 discount would give the Village
about $3,000 for every 100 seniors or $30,000 for every 1,000 seniors. He said that since he
wasn't sure how many stickers were sold at reduced rates, these numbers were illustrative.
The elimination of the discount would cost seniors less than 58¢ a week. He said it's a fact
that seniors already enjoy tax reductions on property tax, extra exemptions on federal income
taxes, and free rides on CTA and Metra. For Village residents, senior discounts on vehicle
stickers and water bills means more cost for non - seniors, because the money has to come
from somewhere. Mr. Kovacs said he was soon to be eligible for senior discounts himself, but
nevertheless hoped that the Board would consider his suggestion. He said that "tough times
call for tough decisions,'` and the Board had to do what would be in the best interests of the
whole Village.

RESIDENTS' COMMENTS (Agenda Items Only)
Joe Hedrick. Mr. Hedrick, representing American Legion Post 134, thanked the Board and
all the residents who have made it a "great year" for the Legion. He pointed out that there will
soon be a show on Channel 6 about what the Legion does and how it benefits Morton Grove,
The Village's local community staff also prepared a You Tube version. He said it's great to
have the Legion and the Village working together.
He thanked the Village for its donation to the Thanksgiving for sailors event and read a letter
to that effect, which he asked Clerk Kalogerakos to enter into the public record.
Mayor Staackmann asked Mr. Hedrick to provide some details about the Thanksgiving event.
He said they have a bus that goes up to Great Lakes Naval Station and brings down about
50 recruits. A full day is planned for them, including bowling, video games, entertainment,
the Veterans' display at the Historical Museum, a huge sit -down dinner served by volunteers
(including Village Board members), and an incredible sweet table. Best of all is the fact that
10 phone lines are made available to these recruits so they can call —free of charge —
anywhere in the world, with no time restriction (other than being cognizant that many of their
colleagues also want to use the phones). Mr. Hedrick said that this Thanksgiving event is
really catching on, and more and more residents are supporting it by volunteering with
donations and helping to serve the food. He thanked the Board again for their cooperation
and significant contribution. Trustee Marcus commended Mr. Hedrick and his wife, Donna,
who is president of the Legion's Auxiliary, for all the work they do for this event. Mr. Hedrick
said the chairman of this is Casey Pocara, and he is the driving force behind this. Trustee
Marcus said he'd like to publicly acknowledge Casey for spearheading this great event.
Mayor Staackmann proclaimed the month of De

IX. STAFF REPORTS
A. Village Administrator
1. Mr. Wade said that the 2011 Budget process has so far included three budget meetings and a
Budget Overview in October. All those meetings were taped and shown on television multiple
times. All were publicly announced, and all provided an opportunity for residents to comment
He thanked Pioneer Press, Patch, and TribLocal for their significant coverage of the budget-
ing process.
a. Mr. Wade noted that the numbers for the Public Library have been updated for tonight's
presentation.
b. Mr. Wade said the budget process began last summer. He thanked the Village department
heads and staff for recognizing that we are still in a sluggish economy by minimizing
expenditures. Since 2008, $1.2 million dollars in personnel costs have been eliminated,
with other people picking up the work. The 2011 Budget calls for a 3.5% property tax
increase to support the General Fund. Water rates will increase 3% annually for the next
five years for capital project initiatives (such as the work done on the Dempster Street water
main, which cost $1.7 million). The Village's water utilities are under - appreciated —until
something goes wrong'
c. The 2011 Budget will also see the gradual phase -out of the senior water discounts. The
discount is presently 50 %; it will be reduced to 40% in 2011, 30% in 2012, 20% in 2013, and
10% in 2014. This is because the water system cannot afford the $230,000 annual price tag
for the 50% discount. Mr. Wade commented that Morton Grove's water rate discount for
seniors is an anomaly. There are only two other communities that offer a water rate discount

c. The senior bus service, which costs $30,000 annually, will also be eliminated. Tree planting
and tree trimming programs will also be reduced, as will the cardio- pulmonary resuscitation
sessions offered by the Fire Department.
Mr. Wade then turned the presentation over to Finance Director Ryan Horne.
e. Mr. Horne went through a PowerPoint overview of the budget covering the Tax Levy, the
General Fund, and the Water Fund. He said the Village's objectives for the 2011 Budget
were to have a balanced budget with long -term sustainability. He said what residents pay on
their real estate tax bills depends on what township you live in and what school districts are in
your area. He pointed out a few taxes that are common to all property owners (such as the
Mosquito Abatement District, the Park District, the Forest Preserve District, etc.) The Village's
portion is 12% to 15% depending on where you live.
f. There were no increases in the property tax levy in 2008 or 2009, but a 3.5% is recommended
for 2010 (to be collected in 2011). That will amount to $337,724 of revenue for the Village.
9. Mr. Horne said, regarding the Village's Debt Service Fund, that a portion of the property tax
increase will be allocated to it in 2011 plus some of the home rule sales taxes.
h. Total tax levy includes the Public Library, whose tax levy this year is 15.62 %, for a combined
tax levy of 6.2 %. Because the total tax levy is over 5 %, a Public Hearing will be held on the
Tax Levy on December 10 at 7:00 p.m. (Note: Subsequently this Public Hearing was
changed to December 9, 2010 at 5:30 p,m.)

IX. STAFF REPORTS (continued)
Mr. Horne said this is the first balanced budget since 2007. Fund balances are being
maintained at or near the Village's 25% standard.
j. He said the proposed tax increase will have an impact of about $30 on a $300,000 home
and $40 on a $400,000 home (before exemptions).
Trustee Toth asked if that impact was annually. Mr, Horne said it was.
Trustee Thill asked if that impact included the Library. Mr. Horne said it only reflected the
Village's portion. The combined total levy is 6.2 %.
k. Trustee Marcus asked if the Library passes its own budget and sets its own levy and if the
Village can comment on it. Mayor Staackmann asked Corporation Counsel Liston to respond.
Ms. Liston explained that the Library passes its own budget, but does not have the ability to
pass a tax levy. That can only be done by the Village. The Library sends their budget and
levy request to the Village Board, and the Board is required to pass it as long as it's in
conformance with certain legal guidelines. Trustee Marcus asked if, as an elected official,
he could query that levy, or if the Board has no input into the Library's levy. Ms. Liston said
the Board has the right to ask questions of the Library's representatives. There will be two
Public Hearings and she hoped that the Executive Director would attend them to respond
to questions. If Trustee Marcus' question is, does the Village have the right to reduce the
Library's levy, the answer is no.
Mr. Horne then discussed the Water /Sewer Enterprise Fund. He explained that an enterprise
fund is one in which services are provided on a cost- recovery basis to parties outside the
government (i.e., residents and businesses are the customers). The Budget for 2011 shows

cash flow. Looking at cash flow statements, there will be a deficit at the end of 2010. By 2013,
the deficit could reach $1.2 million.
m. Mr. Horne noted that the Village is losing approximately 10% revenue annually due to aging
and ineffective water meters. Mayor Staackmann pointed out that it could be seen as a "lost
expense" too, because the Village is paying the City of Chicago for water and the Village is
not recouping all of it, due to the ineffective water meters. Some capital projects, including
a water meter upgrade /replacement program, are being paid for by the bonds issued earlier
this year,
n. Mr. Horne said that the Village hired the Municipal & Financial Services Group (MFSG) in
2007 to provide a cost of service study, a cost of service analysis, and develop a rate model
for water sales and sewer usage to ensure the Village's water and sewer rates are recovering
the cost of these proportionately among users. According to their findings, presented in
March 2008, the Village's sewer rates do not produce sufficient cash revenue to cover cash
requirements —in fact, cash revenue is roughly 49% less than what is required. Also, the
Village has a significant amount of water and sewer infrastructure that has exceeded its useful
life. Other findings note that the Village is equitable in distributing the costs among the users
of the system, the Village's senior citizen discount for water service is "very generous ", and
the Village does not charge new customers a capital connection fee for buying into its water
and sewer systems.

STAFF REPORTS (continued)

o. The study's conclusions are that (1) the Village needs to increase water and sewer rates
over the next five years to keep revenues in line with expenses and to fund necessary capital
projects; (2) the Village should plan to invest "significantly" in its aging water and sewer
systems over the next 10 to 20 years in order to continue to provide reliable water and sewer
service to its customers; and (3) the Village should adopt a capital connection fee so that
current customers are not subsidizing the cost of serving new customers.
P. The MFSG recommended that the Village formally establish reserves for operating and
maintenance of water systems and for repair, renewal, and rehabilitation of them. They
also recommended that the Village invest, at a minimum, $1 million annually in its water
distribution system and $.45 million annually in its sewer system. They further recommended
the elimination of the senior discount and recommended a meter replacement program
charge so that the water meters could be replaced every 15 to 20 years without issuing
bonds.
q. Mr. Horne said that the recommendations for the 2011 Budget include a 3% increase in water
and sewer rates, a meter replacement fee, a capacity fee for new services, and the beginning
of the elimination of the senior discount. The Finance Advisory Committee, which was
established, in part, to "advise the Corporate Authorities regarding the general long -term and
strategic financial direction of the Village", reviewed all these recommendations and agrees
that they are necessary. The impact on the average user of the meter replacement fee and
the 3% increase is about $6.65 more each bill. The impact on a user currently receiving the
senior discount would be about $8.09 more each bill. Implementing these changes will help
reduce the projected 2013 deficit from $1.2 million to only about $106,000.
r. Trustee Grear thanked the Finance Advisory Commission and the Mayor for establishing it.
He said it was immensely helpful to him to have another commission review this data and
comment about it.

X. TRUSTEES' REPORTS (continued)
B. Trustee Gomberg:
a. Trustee Gomberg said that the figures in the Ordinance currently are not correct in that the
packets were delivered to the Trustees on Thursday, but the Library's figures were not
received by the Village until late Friday.
b. Trustee Gomberg said he would read the most up -to -date and accurate figures and the Board
would be provided with up -to -date copies this week. The Budget will be available for inspec-
tion at the Village Administrator's office and the Public Library, and is posted on the Village's
website. A Public Hearing on the Budget will be held on December 13, 2010, in conjunction
with the Village's regularly- scheduled Board Meeting.
c. Trustee Gomberg said that the Village's total budget is $56,979,243 and the Library's total
budget is $3,165,848, for a combined grand total of $60,145,091. He invited the Public to re-
view the budget at the venues mentioned previously.
d. Mayor Staackmann asked Mr. Wade if residents who have questions regarding the Library's
budget and levy should address their questions to him. He said he could coordinate the ques-
tions and get them to the Library so the Library can respond. Trustee Marcus noted that there
would be a Public Hearing so that residents and the Board could get answers to their ques-
tions. Mayor Staackmann agreed that that would present an opportunity as well.
2. Trustee Gomberg then presented for a first reading Ordinance 10 -24, Levying and Assess-
ing Taxes for the Village of Morton Grove, Cook County, Illinois, for the Fiscal Year Be-
ginning January 1, 2011 and Ending December 31, 20111
He explained that the Village's budget requires a tax levy amount of $11,210,486. The Village
is also required to levy an additional $9,654,711 for debt service payments, for a total levy be-
fore abatements of $18,136,715. The levy for the Public Library is $3,099,519, for a combined
total levy of $21,236,234. However, the Board will adopt Resolutions abating $8,453,851 from
the levy, resulting in a net levy in the amount of $12,782,383. These abatements will be made
because the abated amounts will come from sources other than property taxes, but by law
must be included as part of the property tax levy. Trustee Gomberg said he wanted to point
out that the difference between the Village's portion of this year's tax levy and its portion of
last year's tax levy is 3.5 %, while the difference in the Library's portion this year is 15.6% over
last year's.
3. Next, Trustee Gomberg introduced for a first reading Ordinance 10 -22, Amending Title 7,
Chapter 4 (Water Regulations) and Chapter 5 (Sewer Regulations) of the Municipal
Code of the Village of Morton Grove and Establishing Water and Sewer Rates.
He explained that, pursuant to the recommendations of the Municipal Financial Service
Group, this ordinance provides for a 3% annual rate increase for a five -year period and the
phasing -out of the senior water rate discount program. This will ensure sustainability for
the Water /Sewer Fund. This amendment is expected to provide a net increase to Water Fund
revenue of $203,360 in fiscal year 2011.

C. Trustee Grear:
1. Trustee Grear asked for a moment of silence to remember former trustee and former Mayor
Dan Scanlon.
2• Trustee Grear then presented Resolution 10 -81, Authorizing the Purchase of Simulation
Emergency Training Software and Hardware Equipment.
He said that, in May of 2010, the fire department had received notice that it received a federal
Assistance to Firefighters Grant in the amount of $27,200. This grant had been applied for
with the Village of Niles for the purchase of innovative, interactive proprietary simulator train-
ing software and computer hardware known as the "Flame -Sim 4 Station Mobile Center."
This will fund 8 computers with associated software /hardware to be deployed between Morton
Grove and Niles fire stations. The grant requires a 20% match from both Villages in the
amount of $5,440. The Village will remit the whole 20% match and will invoice the Village of
Niles for its portion of the match, which is $2,720.
Trustee Grear moved to approve Resolution 10 -81, seconded by Trustee Thill. Motion
passed: 5 ayes, 0 nays.

D. Trustee Marcus:
1. Trustee Marcus presented Ordinance 10 -21, Amending Title 5, Chapter 9, Section 9,
Entitled "Municipal Parking Zones" of the Municipal Code of the Village of Morton
Grove.
This is the second reading of this ordinance.
a. Trustee Marcus said there had been some discussion since this ordinance was first intro-
duced, that the ordinance should be amended to be more fitting to this particular location. He
therefore moved to amend Section 5 -9 -9 C by adding the following sentence: "Any vehicle
parked in the municipal parking lot located at 8550 Lehigh without displaying a parking permit
for said parking zone shall be considered an unlawful vehicle and, in addition to any other pe-
nalty, shall be subject to towing pursuant to Chapter 7 of this title." Trustee Thill seconded the
motion.
b. Trustee Grear asked for an explanation. Trustee Marcus asked Ms. Liston to clarify. She said
this suggestion came from the Police Department. This particular parking lot is "permit only ".
Permits must be purchased before anyone can park there. If someone parks there who didn't
pay for a permit, they are depriving someone who did pay from having a space. The Police
Department felt that, under those circumstances, the penalty should be more than just a park-
ing ticket. This amendment gives them the authority to tow such cars as "unlawful vehicles ".

XII. RESIDENTS' COMMENTS
Eiinore Davis. Ms. Davis wanted to share with the Board the results of her visit to the Library
on October 28th. Her findings will provide insights, especially as the Library's budget is
discussed. As a former high school principal, she made North Central visitations to many
high schools, evaluating buildings, programs, and staff. She decided to do the same with the
Morton Grove Library, because there's discussion of building a new $20 —$27 million building.
She visited the Library approximately every two hours on the 28th, to assess the number of
adults, children, and teens on a typical weekday, and see all of the building and see the
programs in progress. At 9:30 a.m., 12 adults came for a workshop; at 3:30 p.m., when they
dispersed, they numbered 17. Most of the day, the adults present in the library were working
on computers. For the day, the adults totaled 55, including those tending to pre - school child-
ren. Children during the day totaled 16. ,There were 6 young teens waiting for rides at
5:20pm, and 3 older teens at 7:30pm, a total for the day of 9. She took a tour with Director
Shapiro, and noted that stacks on the second floor needed thinning. She thought the removal
-T shelving Yt iii Yh P } pl{ V ioe
O some sn�g woulu enabie a iamb �o k)c uiit to `[iieSc stacks. nil c�CVaiv1 (s available to
get to the second floor. During the day, she observed no patrons perusing books on the
second floor. The staff offices are lovely, recently reconstructed, and are located behind the
reference desk. There is good use of space, as offices are shared by staff members with
different hours. The staff lounge in the basement could use brightening. The updated kitchen
is sometimes used for by local school children for cooking classes. The teen area is cozy and
centrally located, surrounded by media collections. The children's library is colorful and filled
with children's books and computers, as well as a newly- created activity room. The reference
area is bright and airy, but under - utilized. She said she suggested to Director Shapiro that
more computers could be set up there. It seems ideal, especially since most reference work
these days is done on computers. One of the two reference librarians could supervise the
computer usage, which is required by Village ordinance. The 1960 vintage boilers will
need replacing at some point with something more energy efficient, as will some of the air
conditioning. Parking has increased by the rental of 20 spaces in St. Martha's parking lot.
Ms. Davis said, in conclusion, the library seems low on computer space, which could be alle-
viated by making better use of the reference area. Staff areas are beautiful, and the library
should look to a future with a very stable Village population. Residents are very happy with the
current library and the programs offered. With the inter - library system, residents have access
to other libraries, should they need to. Therefore, a new library building, which would increase
the already -heavy tax burden to residents, does not seem necessary, especially in light of a
15.6% proposed tax levy for the Library's 2011 Budget.

Date, December 8, 2010
Public Notice
Legal notice for this public hearing was published in the Morton Grove Champion newspaper
on October 28, 2010. Public notice letters were sent to property owners within 250 feet of
the subject property on October 28, 2010. A public notice sign was placed on the subject
property, also on October 28, 20101
Applicant and Request Summary
The applicant, Nasri Ayasra (Austin - Oakton Service Inc.), requests approval of a Special Use and
associated variations for proposed alterations to an automobile service station mini -mart. The
request includes a front setback zoning variation for the existing canopy.
Mr. Ayasra appeared before the Commission at the public hearing and testified on behalf of this
request. Testimony included the following information:
Testimony
On November 15, 2010, a public hearing was conducted by the Morton Grove Plan Commission
after notice of said hearing was published in the Champion newspaper on October 28, 2010,
written notification was sent to property owners within 250 feet of the subject property and a
sign was posted on the property as required by ordinance, regarding:
Plan Commission case PC 10 -03, wherein the applicant, Austin- Oakton Service, Inc. by Nasri
Ayasra, 2 -S 730 Williamsburg Ct., Oak Brook, IL 60523, requested a special use permit and
zoning variations for proposed alternations to an existing automobile service and mini -mart
station located at 6000 West Oakton Street, to allow the conversion of one service bay to a sales
area for food beverages and other cold goods. The request also includes a front yard setback
zoning variation for the existing canopy.
Sohn D. Said, Director of Community Development and Village Planner, introduced the case on
behalf of the Village. He reviewed the details of the request, namely that the site is zoned M2,
General Manufacturing, and consists of approximately 24,964 square feet (0.57 acres). It is
Richard T. Flickinger Municipal Center

Tel: (847) 965 -4100
Fax: (847) 965 -4162
located on the northwest corner of Oakton Street and Austin Avenue and is bounded on the west
by the Charhouse Grill, on the north by an industrial warehouse building occupied by Sko -Die, on
the east by Austin Avenue; across Austin is a warehouse /industrial building, and on the south by
Oakton Street; across Oakton is a truck parking area and an industrial /warehouse facility which is
located in the Village of Skokie. The Village's 1999 Comprehensive Plan designates the site as
industrial.
He further explained that the applicant proposes to convert the eastern -most of the station's
three service bays into a sales area for food, beverages and other cold goods. This sales area will
be enclosed with a new wall and window as well as a new door along the front to replace the
existing larger overhead door. New planters with landscaping will be installed along the exterior
of the new wall, Otherwise the site will stay unchanged; that is, the other two service bays,
gasoline pumps and the canopy will remain.
Nasri Ayasra, on behalf of the applicant, was sworn under oath and testified further that the
proposed changes are motivated to utilize the building's space more efficiently so as to generate
more income. He testified that gasoline stations have come to depend more and more on sales
of food, beverages and candy.
The members of the Plan Commission questioned Mr. Ayasra concerning the project,
Commissioners' questions focused on the following topics (Mr. Ayasra's responses are in
parentheses):
® Store and business operations including the expanded convenience mart area
relative to the remaining garage service area. (The garage areas, while they will be
in a smaller service area, will contin� e to f! inction as a conventional service station
operation.)
® Fire Department requirements. (The applicant will be required to meet all applicable
requirements; in many ways the conversion of space from a garage to a
convenience mart makes it less of a potential fire hazard.)
® Parking and snow storage. (Most parking will be "at pump" customers that might
purchase convenience goods while buying gasoline. Larger snow accumulations will
be removed from areas of traffic circulation.)
® Regarding the traffic study, Commissioner Blonz noted that not only was the traffic
consultant not present to be examined, but his traffic study was the least adequate
he had ever seen submitted to the Commission. (The Applicant said he did not
know the consultant had to appear; he also reiterated that the proposed project is
not anticipated to increase traffic and the site will continue to rely on pass -by traffic
for customers). Village staff agreed with Applicant.
The Commission asked if anyone present wished to be heard concerning the project, to which
there was no response.
Findings of Fact
The Plan Commission reviewed the Standards for a Special Use, as specified in Section 12 -16 -4C
of the Unified Development Code, The Commission concurred with, and based their decision on,
these findings.
2
Preservation of Health, • and Welfare . establishmentr
maintenance and operation of the Special Use will not be detrimental to
endanger public health, safety, morals or general
• The proposed convenience mart use and associated variation will not be detrimental
to or endanger the public health, safety, morals or welfare. The proposed project
will contribute positively to the public health and safety by improving the appearance
of this site.
Adjacent Pr•- - Special U- should not be injurious to the use and
enjoyment of other property the immediate vicinity for permitted in
the zoning district,
• The proposed project represents a minor change from the existing use on the site.
This existing use is generally less intensive than uses on adjacent sites, which are
primarily industrial. The new building exterior and other improvements to be
installed will improve the appearance of this site from nearby properties. Adjacent
taxpayers and properties were all notified of this request.
• The existing property is located within the M2 "General Manufacturing" zoning
district, and the project represents a very minor change in the existing use on the
subject site; which is in a built - out area. The project will therefore not impede the
normal and orderly development of other uses in this district. It will contribute to
the community and support businesses in the community.
• The minor conversion of a service bay to a convenience mart does not change
requirements for utilities, access roads, drainage and other existing facilities. These
facilities currently provide adequate services to this site and the surrounding area.
• No changes to existing traffic are expected due to this minor site change. Existing
ingress and egress points will be maintained.
3
® The minor change to the subject site will not change operations on this site;
therefore no additional screening is required adjacent to the surrounding commercial
and industrial uses.
• The proposed Special Use will be required to meet all Village Codes and Ordinances
except for the existing canopy's placement (setback) that was requested by the
applicant, and approved by the Commission. The Plan Commission concluded that
the variation, which is an after - the -fact variation, is warranted based on the request
and applicant testimony. The project otherwise conforms to applicable
requirements.
Commission Recommendation
Commissioner Dorgan moved, and Commissioner Roepenack seconded, to recommend approval
of the Special Use with variation, after - the -fact, for this project.

November 22, 2010
This ordinance amends Title 7 Chapters 4, Water Regulations and Chapter- 5 Sewer Reguiations
of the Municipal Code to provide for a series of 3% annual rate increases over a five year period
and to also phase out the discounted water rate programs.
To ensure fiscal sustainability of the Water and Sewer Fund,
In March 200$, the Municipal Financial Service Group provided a report to the Village Board
which made certain findings including (1) current water rates produce cash revenues roughly 49%
less than the required cash revenues, and (2) a significant portion of the Village's water and sewer
infrastructure had exceeded its useful Life. The report made certain recommendations includin :
The Village invest a minimum of $1 million annually in its water distribution system, invest $4.5
million annually in its sewer collection system, the Village eliminate the senior water discount
program, and implement a series of rate increases. The Village's Finance Advisory Commission
reviewed this report and recoimnended the Village's water and sewer rates be increased by an
additional 3% for five consecutive years and the senior water discount program be phased out so
the 50% discount provided in 2010 be reduced to 40% in 2011. 30% in 2012, 20% in 2013. and
10% in 2014, and all discounts be eliminated in 2015. Village staff concurs with this
recommendation. This ordinance will amend the Village Code to adopt and implement these
recommendations.
