Each speaker will be allowed one opportunity to speak. Members of the Lincoln Meadows Home Owners Association including Marva Campbell- Pruitt, Edna Johnson, Ms. Robinson and Mr. Miller expressed they were told they can no longer meet in the Community Center unless they pay a deposit and rental fee. The group has met there without incident for quite a few years to discuss issues that pertain to their subdivision. They feel the taxes they pay should allow community groups to use the Community Center. The group also referred to the Deer Creek Homeowners Association still being allowed to meet in the Village Hall without charge. Marva- Campbell Pruitt stated Trustee Poskin provided a copy of the ordinance that relates to the use of the Community Center. Marva is requesting that the Board revise that ordinance or find an alternative place for them to hold their monthly meeting. Mr. Miller also commented on a sewer that sits high behind his house, flooding and mud that surrounds the streets. Mayor Hanks stated he will pass the information on to Public Works. Bernice Brewer Houston stated the Sauk Village Citizens for Public Awareness was also denied the use of the Community Center. Bernice questioned payments to Baxter & Woodman and Kane, McKenna and a grandfather s clause for the Senior Center. Bernice commented on the lack of information and communication provided and asked why department heads are not present at Committee meetings. Mayor Hanks responded that Baxter & Woodman are the TIF consultants and get paid from the TIF. Mayor Hanks is not aware of the grandfather s clause. FOIA requests are answered the way they are supposed to be answered even if it is not the way people want them answered. Department heads are present on Regular Board meeting nights. The rental fees for the buildings are according to a policy that has been on the books for a long while. It is open for village residents to use according to the policy. Mayor Hanks stated the policy has not been enforced. The policy currently contains a fee structure. The Parks and Recreation Committee will be asked to review policy. The policy has to be consistent with all groups and the Community Center cannot be used for political purposes. Mayor Hanks stated he will ask Trustee Burgess to meet with the residents and the Parks and Recreation Committee. Trustee Burgess was involved with policy as previous Parks and Recreation Chair. Trustee Burgess stated the Deer Creek Homeowners Association has been meeting in the Village Hall for about nine years. He will gladly meet with the residents and The Parks and Recreation Committee chairs before the executive session. It is clearly stated in the policy what groups can use the buildings and what the buildings can and cannot be used for. The buildings cannot be used political purposes like fundraisers. Nathan Griffin asked why messages to the Mayor are not returned.

2 Mayor Hanks is available to speak with residents after the meetings. Mayor Hanks stated some work days require long hours and several hours travel and it is not appropriate to return calls late at night in those cases. Mayor Hanks stated when residents leave a detailed message he provides the answer when he returns the call or passes the question on to the proper department head. Mayor Hanks is often in his office after work and on Mondays and Fridays to return calls and speak with residents. Rose Langston stated she is appalled that community groups use the buildings without charge; there has always been a rental fee. The Senior Committee also has a policy for rental fees for the Senior Center. Rose stated October 16 th is the deadline for Bloom Township luncheon tickets. The Senior Spaghetti Dinner is scheduled for October 26 th. Senior Committee members are selling tickets for $5.00 and $6.00 at the door. Tickets are also available at the Village Hall.

The Water Department should be headed by the Village Clerk and layoffs in Public Works should not occur according to the ordinances. Judy stated Public Works should be paid instead of hiring a lobbyist. Mayor Hanks stated auditors are currently working on the audit. The attorneys have nothing to do with the audit. A final report will be provided by October 31 st. Mohan needs to provide additional information. The audit will begin October 15 th. The audits are very detailed.

The sign says it should be open but the door is closed. Mayor Hanks met with Cortez Stewart before the meeting. Cortez stated the Community Center is closed today because the tables and tarp are still in place due to Saturday s Health and Wellness Fair. Discussion of individual employees cannot be discussed.

Village Clerk Mrs. Debbie Williams- No report C. Village Treasurer Mr. Jim Griegel- No report Mayor Hanks acknowledged the passing of Jim Griegel s brother and Sue Dobrizneicki s husband. Please keep them in your prayers. D. Village Attorney - Odelson & Sterk, LTD- Mike McGrath Village Attorney McGrath clarified the need for the easement. An additional 1/5 th of an acre was needed per the IEPA requirement. The current easement is not sufficient for the trucks to bring the permanent air strippers and other equipment to the location and for daily access to the well for maintenance and testing. YRC granted the 1/5 th of an acre over to Sauk Village. The ordinance and legal exhibits will be available within the next couple of days. Village Attorney McGrath addressed the work that goes into answering FOIA requests and costs involved. VA McGrath stated Odelson & Sterk hired a former employee of the Attorney General s office to handle the FOIA request inquires received

5 by their office. While employed with the Attorney General s office this employee was instrumental in developing a form letter that was generated as a response to appeals filed from someone who is not happy with the response they received from the municipality. The requestor is not willing to accept the belief that the village has complied with all the documents they are entitled to receive. This form letter states that the Attorney General s office will investigate the response. Allegations have been made public that the village is under a deep investigation by the Attorney General s office based on the FOIA responses. That is not true. All appeals receive the same form letter stating that the AG s office will conduct an investigation by reviewing the information and look for more feed back. The AG s office will contact the municipality for a response and make a determination. The memo also explains documents that do not have to be turned over. Referring to a recent request for the Public Relations Committee s documents and signature cards, under the act, signature cards do not have to be turned over. The signature cards are on file with the bank to verify any signatures the bank considers to be fraudulent.va McGrath stated he is certain the AG s office will agree that the signature cards do not have to be turned over. The Village Attorneys spend a lot of time and effort working with Sauk Village FOIA s and appeals which is very costly. The village has been found to have answered all FOIA s properly in all prior occasions. The village staff, as well as the Odelson & Sterk staff, work hard to ensure that all FOIA responses will be found to be upheld as appropriate. VA McGrath asked the village to add the cost to respond to FOIA s and subsequent appeals to the FOIA log in the hallway so that residents are aware of the cost. This list should be reviewed at the end of the year. VA McGrath will prepare a summary of what percentage of the legal bills are spent answering the FOIAs and appeals if requested. VA McGrath requested adding an executive session to the agenda for matters of pending litigation. Mayor Hanks asked for a motion to suspend the rules and add an executive session to the agenda as item 7B. The motion was made by Trustee Williams and seconded by Trustee Washington. Motion carried E. Village Engineer Mr. Jim Czarnik Village Engineer Czarnik introduced the bid opening for the Water Treatment Improvement Project. Mayor Hanks opened the following sealed bids: Boller Construction $4,407, Allen Mack & Sons 4,131, Thieneman Construction 4,449, Mayor Hanks asked for a motion to accept the bids as presented and to turn them over to the Village Engineer for further review.
