ACTION: Discussion: Whether it’s a fire, robbery, medical or another personal emergency, there’s always someone to answer our call for help in our moment of need. We pick up the phone, make the call to 9-1-1, and listen to a voice on the other end. The voice guides us through our crisis until responders arrive. While we may never see their faces or know their names, these public safety professionals are the vital link to the emergency responders who come to our rescue. The Tinley Park 911 Center is staffed 24/7, 365 days a year, and these professionals, also known as Telecommunicators, are prepared to answer your emergency.

April 12th through April 18th was National Telecommunicator Week. The Village appreciates all the dedication and hard work the Telecommunicators do every day. This Resolution is eligible for adoption.

ACTION: Discussion: Public Works is requesting the approval of replacing a 2008 F550 Ford dump truck with a 2020 model. This truck broke down in February. A broken valve damaged the cylinder wall causing the engine to fail. The vehicle is twelve (12) years old.

The Suburban Purchasing Cooperative joint purchasing program offered the best pricing option for the replacement 2020 Ford F-550 at a cost of $44,893 through Sutton Ford Inc.

MAINTENANCE FUND, AND COMMUTER PARKING LOT OPERATIONS AND

MAINTENANCE FUND - Trustee Galante

ACTION: Discussion: This Resolution implements a series of year end transfers following established fiscal practices as outlined in the Fiscal Policies Manual.

The transfers are made to capital and debt service reserve funds to support the current and long-term financial needs of the Village to support the replacement of infrastructure, equipment, and provide for debt service on outstanding bonds. The Resolution establishes not to exceed amounts for the contemplated transfers of $10,000,000 from the General Fund; $3,000,000 from the Water and Sewer Fund, and $1,000,000 from the Commuter Parking Lot Fund.

ITEM #10

SUBJECT: CONSIDER ADOPTING ORDINANCE 2020-O-018 AMENDING CHAPTER 112 SECTION 23 (B) OF THE TINLEY PARK MUNICIPAL CODE - PAYMENT OF LICENSE FEES - ANNUAL LIQUOR LICENSE RENEWAL PERIOD - President Vandenberg

ACTION: Discussion: Currently, all establishments in the Village that hold a liquor license renew their license on a semi-annual basis as required by Title XI Chapter 112 Section 23 (B), in the Tinley Park Municipal Code. The Liquor Commissioner is seeking Board approval to move from a semi-annual, to an annual renewal basis. This would greatly ease administrative processes and at the same time, be more business friendly. Annual licensing is consistent with the Village’s historical policies and past practices regarding other local licensing.

Moving forward, renewals would be initiated in December prior to the start of the next calendar year, with all licenses expiring December 31st annually. This Ordinance is eligible for adoption.
