President’s Report – Virginia Povidas – absent
Attorney Update – Lisa Waggoner
Attorney Waggoner announced President Povidas would like to schedule a budget meeting possibly on a Saturday.
She spoke briefly about the McHenry County Council of Government Meeting/Dinner she and President Povidas attended the night before. At the meeting, the council hosted a panel discussion on services available to residents that are victims of job loss, foreclosure etc. Representatives from each agency gave presentations on what is available to help residents. Attorney Waggoner then distributed copies of the McHenry County Housing Assistance Guide she obtained from the county web site. She explained having this information available for the residents at the village hall and printing it in the newsletter would be helpful for the residents.
She announced there are tentative dates for a Plan Commission Meeting on March 11th and a Zoning Board of Appeals Meeting on March 18th to discuss the senior care center at Lincoln and Chapel Hill Roads. These dates are not yet confirmed by Swanson Development.
She distributed copies of a letter dated February 24, 2009 from the Village of Volo to Mr. Munson regarding the sanitary sewer and potable water proposal.
In this letter Volo has indicated they are taking the non-village owners out of the SSA.
In closing, she let the Board know that Treasurer Kirkpatrick is working on the Nicor exemption accounts.

Attorney Waggoner announced that on Friday she attended a meeting at the McHenry County Administration Building about the stimulus trickle down effect and what money the county will receive. Basically, the county, townships and all the municipalities will be getting approximately 4.7 million dollars for everyone. McHenry County Council of Mayors will be disbursing the money and they had a call for project back in January and February and had about a dozen projects for 34 million that were already in. Being that a number of municipalities were not aware of the official call, there was discussion on fairness of the disbursement of the money. The consensus was that you could submit one project and it has to be 100% shovel ready because it has to be built in the next year/year and a half and the cut off date to submit an application is March 13, 2009.
After a long discussion between the Board Members, Michael Plant from Baxter & Woodman, Attorney Waggoner and Superintendent Schmidt, the Board Members decided not to submit an application.
