PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE
MAYOR' S REPORT: Mayor Ryan presented: Comments: 1) Discussion and APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE PUBLICATION OF A NOTICE OF REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS FOR THE PURCHASE AND DEVELOPMENT OF LAND LOCATED AT 11638- 58 SOUTH PULASKI ROAD, VILLAGE OF ALSIP, BEING OTHERWISE LOCATED IN THE PULASKI ROAD CORRIDOR TIF REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT AREA. There was discussion of the amount of land that the Village of Alsip owns. There was discussion of deeming the FireWater Project by default and in favor of approving this resolution that lets the Village seek requests for proposal from anyone interested and BIDing on the area because it is a TIF area. Starbucks wants the property. There was discussion if FireWater offered a time frame for an extension on the project and the answer was no. If Starbucks got the property they would like to start right away and a guess at the time frame of it being finished would be about 6 months. The Starbucks would stand alone it would be about 2, 200 square foot store with a patio sitting, outdoor sitting and a drive thru. There was discussion if the RFP is put out it allows the Village to explore other options but also does not exclude FireWater from resubmitting. The FireWater project has been a 3 year wait with no future timeline at this point.
PRESENTATIONS PETITIONS, COMMLTNICATIONS: Update from Mayor Ryan on the MWRD in favor of 20 acre development on the canal. MWRD may assure some maintenance assistance on Plattner. Trustee Zielinski discusses a meeting he has last week between the Homeowners Association and the GasNWash discussing a few issues to make is more pleasurable for the residents. The three aspects they asked for were the lighting along Kostner Avenue be aimed more east or downward only. They would also like a 3 to 4 foot berm along Kostner Avenue with an 8 to 10 foot decorative fence depending on what the ordinance said. Also asking for directional signage to direct truck traffic to enter on Kolin Avenue going to 128th Place and enter at the rear of the property and fuel up. Both parties seemed to agree. There was discussion about the fence possibly being too tall. This would have to be presented at the next week' s meeting if there is more information.
