Gentlemen,

On Wednesday, April 2, 1975 a meeting was held in the offices of
Village Attorney Bianucci with members of the Hawthorn Development
Group, specifically Joe Beale, Yee Frey and Bob Webber, Attorney.
In attendance representir4 the Village of Oak Brook was Attorney
Bianucci, Chet Yarbrough and me.
40 The purpose of the meeting was to review on a staff level the
annexation agreement which we receiv ^-d on April 1, 1975 and to
establish some preliminary suggestions in terms of steps to be
followed relative to the annexation and rezoning.
The preliminary draft of the annexation agreement submitted was
very preliminary and since we had only received it one day prior
to the meeting, we were not in a position to comment formally on
each of the items, however, we did raise some questions relative
to the language or general provisions that would have to be
addressed in the annexation agreement; We indicated to the developers
that it was our understanding that the village board would require an
annexation agreement in finalized form prior to any public hearings on
annexation or rezoning.
Based on this premise, it was concluded that it would take at least
60 days to review and work out the terms of the annexation agreement
assuming that a joint public heariLLg would be held by the village
board, Plan Commission and Zoning Board of Appeals. It was the con-
clusion that no' final action would be taken until some 30 days after
the ,point public hearing based on the assumption that the terms of
the annexation agreement had been completed, at least on a staff
level prior to that time.
Our discussions dealt with technical and application dealing with
the annexation agreement and specifically excluded the policy issues
that will be required to be discussed and made by the village board.
2
a.s important that the negotiating team, if restricted to the
tf members, the village attorney, myself and Chet Yarbrough,
,.to carry on the negotiations and meetings on the annexation
�.-ement be provided with the parameters and some specifics
!ling with the various items. Tf a member of the board of
Istees, meml- s of the Plan Commission and Zoning Board of
gals are going to be part of that negotiating team, then the
required first of all will be lengthened, and secondly, the
!�s at which the meetings will be held will have to be altered
n daytime to evening meetings.
,andly, a mechanism for communication should be established so
!t we can communicate to the corporate authorities at various
,es of negotiati -ins or when item-- of concern are reached or
4ss is reached.
ive discussed this matter with Joe Rush and he has .suggested
t we call a Committee-of-Vie-Whole meeting prior to the board
Ling can April 8th, 1975 at 7:00 P.M. to discuss this matter
;that the staff can be given direction.
