M,E.14 ORANDUM
�I
DATE: January 19, 1996
TO: Village President and Board of Trustees i
i
SUBJECT: Renewal of Agreement with Special Counsel for Prosecution of
!Municipal Ordinance Violation Cases
I.
RECOMMENDATION: That the Village Board authorize the Village
President and Clerk to execute the Agreement with Linda S.
�{
Pieczynski to prosecute local ordinance violations on behalf to the
Village.
Attorney Martens has drafted the attached resolution which authorizes execution of a new
onne-year Agreement with Linda Picczynski to prosecute local ordinance violations. The
Village initially retained his. Pieczynski as of March 1, 1995. By all accounts, she is j
doing an excellent job prosecuting these cases.
Ms. Pieczynski has been received extremely well by our police officers. In a survey of
appropriate police personnel completed last summer(96 percent response rate) it was the
unanimous opinion of the respondents that her overall performance as Village prosecutor
had been excellent. In addition. she has been complimented consistently on the
information, guidance and training she has prodded above and beyond her work in court.
Financially, the results have been as anticipated. The incremental cost of Ms.
Pieczynski's services (over and above what was previously being paid to the State's
Attorney's office)have been more than offset by new revenue resulting from her work.
You will note a$5 per hour increase(from$85 to $90) for consultation,research and trial
preparation and any field court appearance exceeding three hours in length. During 1995.
the Village was billed for 18.5 hours under that provision. The $128 base charge per
court session in unchanged.
a
Staff will address the repayment of the amounts owed to the General
Corporate Fund in conjunction with the preparation of the next Five-
Year Financial Plan. By that time,Staff will know the amount that
the Sports Core Fund will receive for the right-of-way taking along
31 st Street and have a sense of direction as to how we will proceed
with the potential sale of surplus land in the Westchester Park area. In
addition, Staff will be reviewing the long-tern financing of the entire
Sports Core operation. Since funds are not currently available to
repay the loan,Finance Officer Langlois has requested the tern be
extended for an additional year to January 31, 1997.
The 1996 Budget includes the repayment of 575,000 to the General
Corporate Fund from the Golf Surcharge account. This will occur
during the year as revenues are received,and should all be repaid by
the end of 1997.
