hire. There is a grant coming up
other programs then with or just the Dare officer.
4. ) Review Organizational Chart (Final Draft) Review - Mayor
Johnson is a little confused on what we are looking to
accomplish with the organizational chart. Kot said this is
basically a communication chart. We would like to add active
data along with an explanation of idea of how it works. This
is just a base line.
5. ) Technology Update - Y2K Plan - Dictaphone System Upgrade - We
are going to be working with the County. Hoping to have
solution by January. Dictaphone needs a patch. It has the
ability to be compliant. Molly has not completed the
inventory.
File Server/Network Computers - Current file server is up to B
percent capacity. Graff figures the cost will be somewhere
around $4,500 to $5,000- Starting to have some problems with
the server. Looking at upgrading within 45 to 60 days. We
will run old with the new until everything is set up and
working properly.
Police Reporting Software - No discussion.
Clerk Molly Batterson Salary - We do not know what to do with
salary. If we give her a title of Administrative Assistant
Technology Specialists we are looking at $30,000 to $40,000 per

finish school. We are using her in that capacity and she is
doing a very good job. Kot would like to have a recommendation
on what Graff would like to do. Molly is currently work close
to 40 hours per week. Graff would recommend to give her
benefits. The money is in the budget to do that. Then wri e a it

is an exception that does open the door for other employ
ask. But the window of exception is small. We have two
part-time clerks and it is just not cutting it. Graff has
budgeted Molly up to 40 hours per week for the next fiscal
year. Kot would like to look at this but he would also like to
reward Molly. Bring back to next meeting. Graff needs to
speak with Mayor Johnson.
6. ) 10 Year Vehicle Plan - Expenditure Update - Review in December
in plan of $23,000 . This is a not to exceed amount. We have a
proposal on a Tahoe. It would be good to purchase. It was
used as an administrative vehicle. If this falls through,
Graff will bring proposals to the next meeting.
7. ) Ordinance Amendment - RE: Dogs Barking - We took out the part
of telling the courts what to do and destruction of the dog.
If you take out reasonable time of day it still makes sense.
Bring back to full committee and see if it is really needed.
Mr. James stated that Glen Ellyn requires muzzling for problem
dogs. The courts can address this but then we spend money for
going to court because of the legal fees. There are some other
things we can do here. Graff will get some ordinances from
Glen Ellyn and other communities and find out the measure of
enforcement. Bring back.
8. ) First Draft of Ordinance - RE: Massage Therapist Standards
This is just a draft for everyone to read over. Review and
bring back to next meeting.
New Business -
1. ) Liquor License Classification Review - Catering License/Home
Delivery - Joe Bourke is looking to open up a gourmet coffee
shop and sell liquor. We do not have a wine and liquor license
available. He does not want to serve beer. He also has a
catering business and is looking to cater parties and would
like to be able to supply liquor. He is not trying to hide
anything. He is not looking to open a liquor store. He is
looking for an ordinance to cover only what he needs. At the
coffee shop only shots of liquor will be served and would only
be served in coffee. Wine for tasting would also be served.
The catering package would include speciality beers, wine and
fancy liquors. There may be times when it is dropped off only.
Inside a private resident it is very difficult to control or
enforce the law. But the liquor would have to be delivered to
someone 21 or older. Once the delivery is made Bourkes
responsibility ends . He will have an agreement including a
hold harmless provision and they will follow the guidelines of

Bourke does not want any headaches. We could limit the amount
of liquor with the menu. Beer would only be ansoold by bogtle or
can. Wine by bottle only. Then if they p
liquor then allowable they must hire a bartender to man the
function. Mayor Johnson thinks we should issue for der two

separate licenses. Bourke does not want to pay
he is not using. He does not want to sell beer on the premises
with the coffee shop. Coffee shop is located in Countryside
and would like to have wine available as samples. Will not
have room there to store wine. We need to do some research on
the catering side. Mayor Johnson does not mind to amending the
restaurant licenses. Take to COW if able. Graff will try to
get draft of ordinance. This would also be a good time to
address specialities with baskets. Spang thinks that we should
not rush these licenses through, but he thinks the coffee shop
would be a great asset to the business community.
Additional Business -
Accident Reconstruction - Street was closed off for a long time
due to an accident. It was a holiday for the state. We had to
call Plainfield in. Graff would like to possible get someone
in class this year. There is seven weeks worth of classroom
work and it takes about 18 months to get through the training.
Glenn can gather the data and then take it to a
reconstructionists. We could become certified to collect the
data and cut down on the closing time. If there is a
responsible party then they or their insurance gets billed for
the time. Kot would like to see a Countywide training. Bring
back.
