                THE ZONING ORDINANCE AND ZONING MAP OF THE VILLAGE OF

                 STREAMWOOD, COOK COUNTY, ILLINOIS. This Ordinance amends the

                 Village’s official zoning map to include any additions or changes that have occurred

                  during the past year.

                  Trustee Carlson presented the Ordinance for first reading and posting.

                   Community Development Director John Peterson stated the Village is required to

                   amend the zoning map annually if there have been any changes to property zoning

                    within the corporate limits in the past year. This map reflects the zoning change to

                    C2-PUD and lot consolidation for the northeast corner of Lake Street and Elizabeth

                    Drive for the Elgin Toyota property.

Public Works - Trustee Baumer/Trustee Harper

A-18-019 Resolution – Tree Branch Removal – Trees R Us

                Request the Board approve a Resolution entitled “A RESOLUTION ACCEPTING

                THE LOW BID AND AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION OF A CONTRACT

                 WITH TREES “R” US, INC. FOR TREE BRANCH REMOVAL.” This Resolution

                 authorizes the low bid of $47,520 from Trees “R” Us Inc. for the supplemental

                 removal of tree branches as part of the annual branch pickup program.

                  Trustee Baumer presented the Resolution and moved for approval. Trustee Schmidt

                  seconded the motion. Public Works Director Matt Mann stated the village has been

                  using a contractor for the past few years on as-needed basis to assist in branch pickup,

                   allowing the PW employees to be assigned to other necessary tasks. This proposal

                   provides for a contractor to pick up approximately half of the branches on a weekly

                   basis as an assist to Public Works; regular PW employees will complete each section

                   of pick up. Mr. Mann stated the annual cost is less than the prices paid for this

                   service in the past two years. Only one bid was received; this contract can also be

                   extended for two additional years at a minimal increased cost. Trustee Cecille

                    confirmed there is no change in the pickup schedule or changes in the “zones” for

                    pickup. ROLL CALL:

                  seconded the motion. Community Development Director John Peterson stated the

Legislative – Trustee Schmidt/Trustee Carlson

A-18-022 Resolution – Village of Streamwood Purchase Policy

                Request the Board approve a Resolution entitled “A RESOLUTION APPROVING,

                ADOPTING AND IMPLEMENTING THE VILLAGE OF STREAMWOOD

                PURCHASING POLICY AND PROCEDURES MANUAL.” This Resolution

                updates the Village’s Purchasing Policy Manual to ensure compliance with proper

                auditing standards and to maintain accountability in the procurement of goods and

                services.

                Trustee Schmidt presented the Resolution and moved for approval. Trustee Cecille

                 seconded the motion. Finance Director Josh Peacock stated the Village last revised

                this policy in 2013. One of the proposed changes, suggested by the village auditors,

                is regarding capital assets. We are adding a section for purchasing cards (P-cards)

                used primarily for internet purchases. A number of general procedural modifications

                are needed with the implementation of the MUNIS software and references to state

                laws, etc. In addition, staff is recommending an increase to the bidding threshold

                from $20,000 to $25,000 to allow the best pricing for goods and services.

                Trustee Harper asked if the P-cards have a purchasing dollar limit. Mr. Peacock

                stated each card has an individually determined limit, and all cards have strong fraud

                protections as well. Trustee Cecille asked about a lost card and usage. Mr. Peacock

                stated if an authorized user was to lose the card, it should be reported immediately

                and safeguards (as with most credit cards) are in place to reverse unauthorized

                purchases. Trustee Harper asked about PIN numbers for the P-cards. Mr. Peacock

                stated they are not used as the P-cards are not used for “debit” style use or for any

                cash withdrawals. ROLL CALL:

                Trustee Baumer                    Aye                        Trustee Cecille              Aye

                 Trustee Harper                     Aye                        Trustee Thon                Aye

                 Trustee Schmidt                    Aye                        Trustee Carlson           Aye

                  Motion carried.                                                    RESOLUTION 2018-7
