He discussed why it was authorized and then pulled. Mayor Golinski said that a few months ago he and City Administrator Olson were talking about this issue and the complaints.The fact that Sugar Grove,Plano, and Big Rock all have quiet zones he felt it would be a good thing to look at.Mayor Golinski wanted to look at this issue for two reasons. One was reason to look into it was due to the complaints from residents, and the other was due to The Minutes of the Regular Meeting of the City Council—December 13,2016—Page 3 of 3 a function of the redevelopment of Yorkville's downtown.At that time Mayor Golinski told City Administrator Olson to go ahead and do a mini study to see what it would take to establish quiet zones. He didn't think much of it and figured it would be around$10,000 or$15,000.He told City Administrator Olson to go ahead and run with it. It was brought to his attention that at the last legislative session the Council voted on this and voted not to move forward. It should go back to committee.Mayor Golinski stated that this train study should be sent back to committee.For the time being,City Administrator Olson is going to do some leg work in talking to other communities to see when they got their quiet zones and how they went about it.Mayor Golinski thinks it is worth revisiting. Once he found out it should go back to committee he told City Administrator Olson to call E.E.I. and put a stop to it.No funds had been expended. EXECUTIVE SESSION None. CITIZEN COMMENTS None.
