Village President's Report

  • Swearing in of Police Officer Philip Javier.
  • The Board approved a request from Youth Services of Glenview/Northbrook to waive building permit fees of $77,408 for its new facility on West Lake Avenue, in part because the agency had incurred expenses when the Village asked it to change sites during the Navy Land Use Planning Process.

Village Manager's Report

  • Proposed plan to offset parking space loss during new library construction. To help offset the temporary loss of parking spaces due to construction, Village staff proposed offering a total of 61 commuter lot spaces -- 39 (for employees) at the south end of Railroad Avenue and in the Village lot just south of Fire Station 6; and 22 (for library patrons) at the north end of Railroad Avenue. The Board provided feedback, and asked that staff research options involving dedicated street parking during the construction period.

Approved

  • Parking restrictions near the seven mailbox kiosks on Concord Lane, Avalon Court, and Cambria Court.
  • Change to parking restriction -- from one hour to two hours between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m., Monday - Saturday -- on Pine Street between Glenview Road and Prairie Street.
  • Declaration of a tow truck, vacuum sweeper, and street sweeper as surplus Village property.
  • Participation in the September 20 Northwest Municipal Conference Surplus Vehicle Auction.
  • East-west stop controls at Monroe Avenue/Jefferson Avenue intersection. Vote 3-1 in favor.
  • Bid award for demolition of 1148 Depot building to Johler Demolition, Inc. Budget: $24,035.
