11. TOWN HALL
Terry Pearson, 1178 Foxboro Lane
Mr. Pearson asked who was responsible for bad turns that they have to make when visibility is limited by trees and bushes (Schick and 59). He also talked about left turns out of Home Depot onto Stearns Road as well as the Mobil station. Two weeks ago he addressed the Board and Stearns Road was re-striped. He then mentioned Brewster and Foxboro Lanes since he has not had feedback since early July.
President Wallace stated that the left turn out of Home Depot will be drastically changed once the intersection is complete.
Mr. Pearson asked why they can’t have a “no left turn” sign.
The response from the staff was that IDOT would have to make that decision.
Public Works Director Dan Dinges stated that Route 59 is a State route. They have been talking with IDOT and informed them that we have site obstructions. He stated that Stearns Road is a county road and he would mention this to the county.
Scott Morecki(?), 324 Donna Court, #A
Mr. Morecki stated that he wanted to talk about the marijuana dispensary and he was all for it since we need the tax revenue for the city to do other things. He appreciated the lower speed limit on North Avenue when he walks his kids to school. He stated that cars are still speeding up and down North Avenue and he rarely sees any police presence. Cars do slow down when the speed trailer is out there.
Mike Werden, 431 S. Main Street
Mr. Werden spoke about the gazebo and train station that are looking a little bit in disrepair and need some paint. He was not sure if it is the responsibility of the Village or Park District.
Village Administrator Paula Schumacher stated that the Park District is going to send their staff out there to take a look at the gazebo. They usually try to do some touch up prior to National Night Out.
Public Works Director Dan Dinges stated that they have received pricing for the painting of the Depot Museum which was pretty expensive. They are going to try to tackle it with their in-house crews.
12. STANDING COMMITTEE REPORTS
A. BUILDING & ZONING COMMITTEE, CHAIRMAN HOPKINS
Trustee Hopkins stated that Ordinance 2019-60, an Ordinance Granting a Rear Yard Variation for 1355 Windgate Court and Ordinance 2019-61, an Ordinance Granting Fence Height, Corner Side Yard and Front Yard Variations for 114 Lamont Parkway were covered and approved under the Consent Agenda.

Trustee Gabrenya stated that Ordinance 2019-62, an Ordinance Amending Title 11, Chapter 8, Section 11-8-1 of the Bartlett Municipal Code to Adopt and Approve of the Latest Revision to the DuPage County Wide Stormwater and Flood Plain Ordinance and Approve and Incorporate the Updated FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Maps was covered and approved under the Consent Agenda.
C. FINANCE & GOLF COMMITTEE, CHAIRMAN DEYNE Trustee Deyne stated that there was no report.

13. NEW BUSINESS
President Wallace stated that if there were no objections from the Board he would issue the Class C liquor license for Armanetti’s Beverage Mart. No Trustees stated any objections and President Wallace stated that he would issue that license.
Trustee Reinke talked about fence height. He stated that Item A.2. talks about a variance of two feet for a fence that backs up to Bartlett Road. He noticed that a lot of the fences there are six feet and imagined that a lot of people would have to come in for that two foot variance. He asked if they could look at the zoning ordinance and give them a little bit of relief. He thought it was a lot to ask for the residents to come in for a two foot variance, especially when you’re on a busy road.
14. QUESTION/ANSWER PRESIDENT & TRUSTEES
Trustee Camerer stated that two weeks ago they had a gentleman speak about an elderly resident they did not have her lawn mowed regularly. He brought up the fact that this is something typically that a church could take care of. There is a program in Bartlett called the Bartlett Community Care Initiative. They have committed to mow her lawn for the rest of the season and he thought it was a great way to take care of our residents. He hoped that people would come before the Village when the need is there. He thanked the chief for putting it all together.
Trustee Deyne asked about the street striping by Railroad and Western.
Mr. Dinges stated that they are waiting for the striping contractor who is coming in soon. They will also be taking care of the east leg of West Bartlett Road and Route 59 where they will be extending the left turn lane going westbound to southbound.
15. ADJOURN TO EXECUTIVE SESSION
President Wallace stated that the Board will go directly to Executive Session to Discuss Collective Negotiation Matters Pursuant to Section 2(c) 2 of the Open Meetings Act as well as to Discuss Pending or Imminent Litigation Pursuant to Section 2(c)11 of the Open Meetings Act.
