7. C. AWARD OF CONTRACTS:
1) MOSQUITO ABATEMENT SERVICES MOSQUITO
The Village Board, at its February 27, 2001 meeting, waived bidding
due to sole source, and authorized staff to negotiate a contract with
Clarke Mosquito Management, Inc. to provide a mosquito abatement
program. This year, after staff review, staff recommends a combination
lump sum/unit price contract. Weather conditions do not have an
impact on the lump sum items (e.g. larval control is done in any
weather condition). However, they do impact the unit items (e.g. adult
mosquito control). This approach is the most cost effective and will
save the Village approximately $1,000 annually compared to a unit
price contract by reducing administrative and billing costs associated
with a pure unit price contract.
President Bushy inquired if Clarke would be addressing the West Nile
virus. Public Works Director Meranda indicated control would be
addressed if necessary and he has information for the Board members
regarding this issue. President Bushy asked if additional traps would
be a consideration. Public Works Director Meranda stated that an
additional trap would be installed in the west end of the Village and is
included in the contract. The consideration of additional traps will be
re- evaluated during the second and third year of the contract.
Motion by Trustee Craig, seconded by Trustee Caleel, that the Village
Board approve a negotiated three year contract, subject to staff review,
to: Clarke Mosquito Management, Inc., P.O. Box 72197, 149 North
Garden Avenue, Roselle, Illinois 60172, at the unit prices for "Option
B" indicated on the attached spreadsheet for various mosquito
abatement activities. The estimated annual costs are $57,561.60 for
2001, $60,439.68 for 2002 and $63,461.66 for 2003. ROLL CALL

7. C. 2)
On September 12, 2000, and upon the recommendation of the Hotel,
Convention & Visitors Committee, the Village Board authorized staff
to negotiate a contract with BVK/McDonald for the development and
implementation of the 2001 marketing campaign. At their November
16, 2000 meeting, the Hotel, Convention and Visitors Committee
directed the Marketing Subcommittee to work with BVK to further
refine the campaign. On March 8, 2001, the Committee recommended
that the Board approve the components of the marketing campaign.
The campaign includes a not -to- exceed amount of $57,250 payable to
BVK/McDonald for implementation and coordination services and
$190,902 payable to various vendors for costs associated with the
individual activities. Not included in the contract with
BVK/McDonald, but listed among the 2001 projects is continued
advertisement in the DuPage Visitors Guide.
The 2001 Budget (Program 171 -7360) includes an appropriation of
$298,200 for the 2001 Marketing Campaign. In addition to
recommending that the Village Board approve the components, the
Committee directed the Marketing Subcommittee to work with
BVK/McDonald to re- evaluate the Internet components of the proposed
campaign. That re- evaluation will result in a second recommendation
concerning the expenditure of the remaining $50,048.
Motion by Trustee Butler, seconded by Trustee Caleel, that the Village
Board approve certain components of the 2001 marketing campaign
totaling $248,152.00, and authorize the Village Manager to execute the
necessary agreements after review by the Village Attorney. ROLL
CALL VOTE:
Ayes: 5 - Trustees Butler, Caleel, Craig, Kenny and McInerney.
Nays: 0 - None.
Absent: 1 - Trustee Savino. Motion carried.
3) TRAFFIC SIGNAL AND STREET LIGHT MAINTENANCE
Three sealed bids were received on March 14, 2001. The estimated
extended three -year cost for signal maintenance at the Village's ten
signalized intersections is $25,200. The contract also covers on- demand
additional maintenance service for traffic signals and back -up service
for street lights at additional cost, based on contract unit prices for
labor, equipment and material. This service was bid as a three -year
contract, with unit prices for each of the three years. The initial
increase is approximately 9.5% with annual increases of approximately

4.5 %. The contract also allows the Village to terminate the contract,
with or without cause, after giving 10 days notice.
President Bushy asked if consideration should be given to change from
painted poles to galvanized poles as the industry is tending towards
galvanized poles. Public Work Director Meranda explained that
painted poles are esthetically more attractive than galvanized poles.
Motion by Trustee Craig, seconded by Trustee Caleel, that a three -year
contract be awarded, subject to staff review, to the lowest responsible
bidder: Meade Electric Company, Inc., 9550 W 55th Street, Suite A,
McCook, IL 60525, at the unit prices bid. ROLL CALL VOTE:
Ayes: 5 - Trustees Butler, Caleel, Craig, Kenny and McInerney.
Nays: 0 - None.
Absent: I - Trustee Savino. Motion carried.
4) REPLACEMENT FIRE DEPARTMENT VEHICLE
Pursuant to the provisions of Section 1 -7 -10 of the Village Code and
Compiled Statutes, the Village is permitted to join with other
governmental units in order to benefit from cooperative purchasing
arrangements.
Motion by Trustee Kenny, seconded by Trustee Caleel, that a purchase
order be awarded to: Bill Jacobs Chevrolet, 2001 W. Jefferson Street,
Joliet, IL 60435, for the purchase of one 2001 Chevrolet Blazer through
the Suburban Purchasing Cooperative in the amount of $22,703.50.

Nays: 0 - None.
Absent: 1 - Trustee Savino. Motion carried.
5) BATH & TENNIS CLUBHOUSE - FLOOR COVERINGS
The original construction contract included provision of mostly vinyl
tile in the new service areas of the building with the exception of new
porcelain or ceramic tile in the reception area. The contract
contemplated that the contractor would try to match the existing floor
tile in the restrooms, then patch and attempt to match in the kitchen,
bridging the old, new and saw -cut sections of the concrete floor. The
contract called for the Village to provide the carpeting and wood
flooring for the function areas of the Clubhouse.

C. 5)
Due to the replacement and moving of utilities the existing floor was
removed. It was determined that trying to patch the flooring at this
point would prove more costly. It also became necessary to remove the
vinyl tile in the locker areas to abate the asbestos. Therefore, staff
recommended to the Board new ceramic tile in the locker rooms and
replacing all flooring materials in the existing parts of the Clubhouse,
continuing the same materials in the new areas, with the exception of
the shower areas of the locker rooms.
The general contractor has provided a credit of $22,577.00, to be
applied to the purchase and reflected in a change order at a later date.
Additionally, there is $10,000 in the 2001 Budget earmarked for the
"By owner" portions of this project. The tile and wood flooring chosen
are in stock. The carpet has a six -week delivery time, all of which
would allow the project to remain on schedule.
Peter Kramer, Larson & Kramer and Jeffrey White, Floor Covering
Associates, Inc. explained the proposed changes to the Board. Bath &
Tennis Club Manager Sartore distributed samples to the Board of the
proposed tile and carpet to be used for this project.
Motion by Trustee Caleel, seconded by Trustee Craig, that the Village
Board waive competitive bidding and approve issuance of a purchase
order in the amount of $76,400.00 to Commercial Floor Covering
Associations, Inc. on the basis of sole source ability to provide all floor
covering materials chosen for the renovations and expansion of the
Bath & Tennis Clubhouse. ROLL CALL VOTE:
Ayes: 5 - Trustees Butler, Caleel, Craig, Kenny and McInerney.
Nays: 0 - None.
Absent: 1 - Trustee Savino. Motion carried.
Trustee Butler inquired if the lockers could be replaced in the locker
rooms. Mr. Kramer indicated that electrostatically painting the lockers
would. be cost effective and very presentable. The Board determined
locker replacement to be cost prohibitive. This subject will be
presented to the Village Board for their consideration at a later date.
D. ACQUISITION OF STORM SEWER EASEMENT - 420 FOREST
TRAIL - 2001 PAVING AND DRAINAGE PROJECT
Trustee Butler indicated for the record that he would recuse himself
from discussion of this agenda item and abstain from voting due to his
family's involvement. Village Attorney Martens indicated that Trustee

Butler was not directly involved in this matter. The beneficial owners
of the property in question are the heirs of Paul Butler's estate. Trustee
Butler indicated he had no pecuniary interest in this matter. Village
Attorney Martens indicated that technically Trustee Butler does not
have a conflict but that he may choose to recuse himself as he has
indicated.
At the regular Village Board meeting on March 13, 2001 the Board
awarded a contract to construct the 2001 Paving and Drainage Project
to R.W. Dunteman Company at an estimated price of $1,706,309.63
based on the unit price bid. The project involves extensive drainage
work along with reconstruction/resurfacing of roadways throughout the
Timber Trails neighborhood including installation of concrete
shoulders. The design of this project is based on a comprehensive
drainage study conducted in 1999 and concluded in 2000. A key
feature of the design is an outfall storm sewer to be constructed through
the vacant lot at 420 Forest Trail, Lot 14 of Timber Trail Estates
Annex. This vacant lot is owned by the Estate of Paul Butler. The
adjacent lot to the north (Lot 15 — 404 Forest Trail) is owned by Mr.
Daniel Campuzano. Mr. Campuzano is the contract purchaser of Lot
14, which he is acquiring, subject to the easement, in order to enlarge
his property.
Motion by Trustee Craig, seconded by Trustee Caleel, to authorize the
Village to acquire temporary and permanent easements on Lot 14 of
Timber Trail Estates Annex (420 Forest Trail) substantially as provided
in the Grant of Easement. ROLL CALL VOTE:
Ayes: 4 - Trustees Caleel, Craig, Kenny and McInerney.

Motion by Trustee Craig, seconded by Trustee McInerney, to authorize

INFORMATION & UPDATES:
A. VILLAGE PRESIDENT
President Bushy is a member of the DuPage Mayors and Managers
Conferences' Legislative Committee briefly she mentioned legislative
bills they are addressing. One issue is a better understanding of the
Hotel Motel Tax in relation to non -home rule municipalities. The
Conference, on behalf of the non -home rule municipalities has found a
sponsor, Senator Chris Radogno, for a bill that would allow these
municipalities to use a portion of this tax revenue for other than
tourism. It is hoped that this bill will be proposed in the future with the
assistance of the Conference, the Illinois Convention and Visitors
Bureau and the hotel industry.
HB942, which proposes the Intergovernmental Cooperation Planning
Council in each county, that would require county control of local
zoning and planning issues. The sponsor of the bill, Andrea Moore of
Naperville, declined to have her bill come out of committee when she
realized the impact it would have on communities.
HB2233 is a Freedom of Information Act bill by Attorney General
Ryan's initiative. No discussion, testimony or notice was given to this
bill which is also another unfunded mandate.
SB1014 & HB911 relate to bicycle tort immunity that obligates
municipalities to bicycle trails and roadway bicycle safety. Senator
Hawkinson is agreeable to work with municipalities on this issue due to
the Conference's involvement in this bill. The towing industry is
working on a bill that would allow longer trucks, trailers and SUV's the
size of semis without requiring the drivers to have a commercial drivers

officers is working jointly with the Conference ion this issue.
1-1131100 addresses IMRF health benefits that have five DuPage
sponsors of this huge unfunded mandate that the Conference is trying to
defeat.
HB309 Closed Meeting Act bill requires audio tapes of closed meetings
which would be difficult especially for personnel issues. This is being
lobbied for defeat. President Bushy welcomed any of the Board
members to attend the drive down to Springfield May 2 -3, 2001 for
lobbying our legislators.

9. DEPARTMENTAL REPORTS: No Business.
10. UNFINISHED AND NEW BUSINESS (Final Action Not Anticipated):
A. RECOMMENDATION - OAK BROOK HINES DEVELOPMENT RECOM
LLC 4700 -800 COMMERCE DRIVE) - TEXT AMENDMENT OB HINES
On February 19, 2001 the Plan Commission by a vote of 4 to 0, and on
March 6, 2001 the Zoning Board of Appeals by a vote of 4 to 0, have
recommended approval of a text amendment to increase the maximum
FAR (floor area ratio) in the ORA1 zoning district from .45 to .48.
Such an amendment would permit the construction of a 14,290 square
foot expansion of the office building at 700 Commerce Drive. The
applicant had originally requested an increase in the FAR to .60 based
on the findings of the Lohan Report. However, despite the unanimous
support for the Hines proposal to expand their existing building, there
was a concern over the impact of increasing the maximum FAR for all
parcels zoned ORA1. An increase in the FAR above .48 should only be
considered as part of an update to the Village's Comprehensive Plan.
In making this recommendation, the Zoning Board Appeals agreed with
the Plan Commission finding that the petitioner has addressed the
factors as required by the Ordinance for approval of a text amendment
to the Zoning Ordinance. In particular, it was found that the
amendment would not jeopardize the public health, safety and welfare
and there will be no substantial injury to other property. Richard
Klawiter, attorney for the petitioner, was in attendance of the Village
Board meeting.

10. A.
Trustee Caleel voiced a concern of setting a precedent. Trustee Kenny
noted that Community Director Kallien indicated in the Zoning Board
of Appeals Minutes that the .48 increase would be beneficial to this
property but it may be negligible to other properties.
Trustee Caleel noted a comment was made to the effect of spot zoning.
Village Manager Veitch indicated it was not spot zoning by definition
but a change to language within the ordinance, which is general
applicable to any property in that zoning classification and does not
rezone anything.
Trustee McInerney noted that the Board rejected the dramatic proposals
in the Lohan Report when it was presented and which were never
enacted. Village Manager Veitch explained that staff then postulated a
more conservative density pattern still designed to encourage
appropriate redevelopment but manageable within the limitations of the
existing traffic infrastructure. A traffic study was done by Metro
Transportation and presented to the Village Board and material from
that study will be used in the next update of the Comprehensive Plan.
When the census data is received then a new document should be
initiated. Trustee McInerney noted for the record that the reason some
of the proposals offered in the Lohan Study were rejected by the
Village Board was because some of Lohan's ideas did not match our
vision of Oak Brook.
Motion by Trustee McInerney, seconded by Trustee Kenny, to concur
with the recommendations of the Plan Commission and Zoning Board
of Appeals and authorize Village Attorney Martens to draft the
necessary ordinance for final consideration at the April 10, 2001
Village Board meeting. VOICE VOTE. Motion carried.
B. DISCUSSION - DUPAGE WATER COMMISSION CHARTER RES #01 -DWC-
CUSTOMER AGREEMENT R -768, DP H2O
COMM EXT
DuPage County has requested service for one of its six water systems
on terms more favorable than those applicable to the Charter
Customers; i.e., without committing to entities that have become
customers of the Commission since execution of the Water Purchase
and Sale Contract between the Commission and the Charter Customers
in 1986 (Winfield, Oakbrook Terrace, Citizens Utilities and Argonne
National Laboratory), have made the same commitments as the Charter
Customers and are paying their full share of capital costs. DuPage
County desires to do less. The Charter Customers are vehement in their
VILLAGE OF OAK BROOK Minutes

opposition to this unprecedented action. A model resolution of
opposition has been prepared. Substantially all of the Charter
Customers will be adopting such a resolution within the next two
weeks, in advance of the DuPage Water Commission's meeting on
April 12, 2001. Village Manager Veitch, for the record, stated that the
DuPage Water Commission in 1987 -1988 existed only on paper and
went to the bond market for several hundred million dollars and with
only the signatures of twenty -three (23) Charter customers as evidence
of a market for its product.
Motion by Trustee Caleel, seconded by Trustee Craig, that the Village
Board approve Resolution #2001 -DWC -R -768, "A Resolution in
Opposition of the DuPage Water Commission's Extension of Water
Service Without Requiring the Subsequent Customer to Accept Full
Water Allocation," as presented and waive the full reading thereof.
