Gullicksen reported the construction has started in Plainfield Acres on the sewer/water extension and we have had more interested people in that area who would like to tap-on and that is encouraging. Administrator Fusinelli reported we have received quotes from Layne-Western Company, Wehling Wells and Milaeger Company for the drilling of Well #5. We are recommending the Village hire Layne- Western because we have had them do work for the Village in the past and have been well satisfied with their work. A summary of the proposed construction to be done is listed in Baxter & Woodman's letter dated January 14, 1991. After some discussion, it was the consensus of the Board to bring this back to next weeks meeting and ask Harry Countryman to attend the meeting to give his input. L. Kelly stated, in future, it would be advisable to look into purchasing a generator on a truck with light bars for emergencies. Planner Waldock reported all Board members received a draft of the revised Zoning Regulations Ordinance. We would like to get this adopted this summer (1991). Planner Waldock gave an update on Renwick Pointe .and Arbor Place (memo date 2/1/91). The developers of these two (2) projects have been unable to agree on coordinating the phasing. After much discussion it was the consensus of the Board that the developers must get together and come up with an agreement. Mayor Latta stated we are looking for three (3) things here tonight: 1) Village contribution on Howard Street; 2) something the Village can do to get all of Dan O'Connell Drive reconstructed; and 3) answers to the lift station. D. Gullicksen stated he cannot see putting money into Howard Street if the Township doesn't want to pick up their portion. Mr. Searls (Renwick Pointe) stated they are willing to put in Howard Street PLAINFIELD VILLAGE BOARD OF TRUSTEES FEBRUARY 11, 1991 PAGE FOUR all the way, but they expect the other developer to reconstruct Dan O'Connell all the way. Mayor Latta stated the Board is requesting the Planner to get back to the developers and work it out. Planner Waldock reported, we issued a "stop work" order to the Keefe Bros. at the Old Electric Park site. Evidently, the State had issued a flood-way development permit for them to construct a one (1) car garage as an accessory building to the existing squatters residence. We can not issue a building permit until we receive a flood-way development permit from the State of Illinois. The "stop work" order will stay in effect until we receive a flood-way development permit from the State. w. Sharp moved to adjourn. Seconded by J. Gaylord. Voice vote. 6 yes, p no.
