BURGHARD, ADMINISTRATOR Mayor Rock called the meeting to order at 7:00 p.m. Roll call was taken, all Trustees were present. Clerk Janik led the pledge to the flag. There were approximately 30 people in the audience. PRESIDENTIAL COMMENTS Mayor Rock stated he read in the newspaper where Joliet is planning a new sewage plant and asked Mr. Testin for an update. Mr. Jim Testin stated Joliet has proposed to put a treatment facility down by the Aux Sable Creek. The service area is approximately 18 square miles and would service approximately 77,000 people. The area that is identified is south of our boundary agreement, but our boundary agreement only runs for a couple more years. There are concerns to planning staff as to what this may mean in the future in terms of the school district, growth, traffic, and storm water management. Administrator Burghard pointed out that the boundary agreement presently existing with the City of Joliet states that we will not formally object to their extensions of the FPA, perhaps the appropriate way to address these planning issues is a letter ftom Mayor Rock to Mayor Schultz of Joliet. The Board expressed no objection to sending a letter to Mayor Schultz. TRUSTEE'S COMMENTS Trustee Collins commented on the progress of the new Village Hall.
