3) SEWER SYSTEM CONSUL TANT'S /NTER/M REPORT.
Representatives of Walter E. Deuchler Associates will review their
work to date on the inflow and infiltration study, state financed low
interest loans and potential time frames for constructing the planned
new sewer plant. The Village has secured, in the past, the property
on which to build the new plant, but there remains issues of access,
adequate public notice and financing that will require a sustained,
long-term focus on the Board's part. Because of the project's
complexity and extended time frame, we need to focus on the
matter initially at the full Board level and then assign it as a specific
objective of the Public Works Committee regarding physical planning
and the Finance Committee regarding the financial issues. It is not
unusual for the design, financing, construction and shakedown to
take 3 years. This project needs to be initiated immediately.

Harvey regarding board member ownership of property within a TlF
district. That opinion is attached. Since Mr. Rock, Mr. Smolich and
Mr. Stalzer own property interests within the likely borders of the
eligibility district, they will have to disclose to the Village Clerk said
interest and refrain from any and all involvement with the
redevelopment plan. Another option is to exclude their interests
from the district; however, that is counter productive from the
district objectives. This matter needs to be resolved prior to the
next meeting with the consultant.
