E. Trustees Sanford and Kennedy also addressed priorities and expressed commitment to maintaining a healthy financial condition. The priority emphasized was being sure that the Village was expending its' resources to invest in the future growth and stability of the Village. It was felt that there had been a number of changes and that each Board needed to look at priorities based on current conditions. In addition, it was felt that this was not a large priority with the residents of Oak Brook. Trustee Kennedy described a meeting of many Homeowner's Associations Presidents representing approximately 75 or 80% of the population of the Village that were specifically asked whether the Village should pay for garbage collection and those Presidents indicated that they did not want free garbage, they had other priorities. Trustee Aktipis stated that Homeowner's Association Presidents did not represent every resident that reside in their area. He also disagreed with the issue of contributing to the expansion of the 22"d Street bridge. He felt that it would increase traffic through the area rather than relieve traffic congestion. He emphasized that the Village should look into resources for restoring a service which had traditionally been a Village service. It was pointed out that the expansion was an ISTHA, State of Illinois project and would go forward with or without Village approval and that the Village had a contract that required the Village to pay one -third of the cost. Trustee Aktipis requested the Village Attorney's opinion as to whether the Village had a legal obligation to pay $4,000,000 for this project. Trustee Manofsky suggested a Committee -of- the -Whole Meeting in preparation of the upcoming budget to discuss the current Board's priorities. Trustee Craig suggested that the residents be surveyed to determine if they wanted free refuse collection. n q. NEW BUSINESS L� A. CONFIRMATION OF APPOINTMENTS — None presented. B.

AWARD OF CONTRACTS 1) CANCELLATION OF LANDSCAPE SERVICES CONTRACT AND AWARD OF LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE SERVICES After competitive bids, a three -year contract was awarded to A & B Landscaping in the aggregate amount of $173,013 for landscape services at various Village, County, and State locations throughout the Village. As previously reported to the Board, the Village has experienced a multitude of problems with A & B Landscaping, none of which have been resolved. In sum, the problems range from not responding to telephone calls to not applying herbicides and fertilizers to not mowing as frequently as specified in the contract to simply not mowing areas at all. With the aforementioned noted, a certified letter /notification was sent by the Village on May 19, 2006 and received by A & B Landscaping on May 20, 2006 documenting their non - compliance and notifying them that should they continue to default on their obligations, said contract would be terminated, effective June 17, 2006. Since receiving the letter, no satisfactory corrective has been taken by the contractor necessitating that both Sports Core and Public Works crews undertake mowing operations for several days during the week of May 30tH Based upon A & B Landscape's failure to perform as specified in the contract documents, it is staff's strong recommendation that said contract with A & B Landscape be terminated, effective June 17, 2006.
