3 DIRECTOR CHAVIANO: Good afternoon,

4 everyone. Wonderful, wonderful turnout. I guess

5 we're blessed with a beautiful day today. I

6 think it was about six degrees when I woke up in

7 Chicago yesterday. So this is quite a change of

8 weather. So I guess it kind of inspires me to

9 maybe move down to Springfield full time.

10 But this is my first board meeting in

11 Springfield. I attended the first meeting in

12 Chicago last July, I believe, we did it.

13 In any event, my name is Hugo

14 Chaviano. I'm the new director of the Department

15 of Labor. I actually just commemorated my first

16 anniversary since being named by the governor to

17 serve in this capacity, and this is one of the

18 boards that by statute I am charged with, you

19 know, being a part of, and it's really one of the

20 boards that I enjoy the most because your

21 industry really represents fun not only for our

22 children but also for adults.

23 And I have had a little bit of a

24 taste of that, having gone to one of the

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 4 1 inspections with one of my team members to Great

2 America and being treated to some of the rides

3 there. So I'm very open to being invited to one

4 of your carnivals, certainly when the weather

5 obviously gets better.

6 But in any event, I know that all of

7 you have great concerns for safety in your

8 industry, and that speaks very highly of you not

9 only by making the statements and support that

10 you give it but actually by being here in person.

11 So without further ado, I would like

12 to introduce our new chairman. Thank you.

13 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Welcome,

14 everyone. I'm Patty Sullivan with Eli Bridge

15 Company, and I'm your chair this year.

16 I'd like to send this all the way

17 down the line so everybody gets a chance to

18 introduce themselves to you. We are your board

19 members, and we're here to work for the safety of

20 your businesses and for the safety of your

21 customers so that we can all work together and

22 make Illinois a safer place to live and work.

23 So, Bill, would you --

24 MR. SPARKS: Bill Sparks, American

2 MR. REDSHAW: I'm Joe Redshaw,

3 Redshaw Insurance Agency in Rushville -- big city

4 of Rushville, Illinois

5 MR. PERZEE: I'm Marvin Perzee from

6 Iroquois County, and I'm with the county fair.

7 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Okay. Well,

8 I'll call the meeting to order, and let me say

9 that it is nice to see everybody out here, and we

10 appreciate the director being here with us and

11 showing such an interest in our particular board.

12 Without further ado, we have an

13 agenda in front of all the board members, and if

14 anybody has any additions that they would like to

15 make to the agenda, now is the time. Otherwise,

16 I would entertain a motion to approve the agenda

17 as presented.

18 MR. SPARKS: I make a motion.

19 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Okay. Motion

20 made by Bill.

21 Do I have a second?

22 MR. REDSHAW: Second.

23 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: And second by

24 Redshaw.

Page 6 1 Those in favor?

2 (Voice vote was taken.)

3 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Those opposed?

4 (No response.)

5 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Abstentions?

6 (No response.)

7 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Okay. I guess

8 we will move forward with this agenda.

9 The next thing we have is approval of

10 minutes and -- which is going to be kind of a

11 tough thing because we just received the minutes,

12 and I don't know if everybody has had a chance to

13 look through them yet.

14 Would it be okay if I tabled this

15 till maybe the next meeting so we'll have a

16 chance to read through them first?

17 DIRECTOR CHAVIANO: You're the chair.

18 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Okay.

19 DIRECTOR CHAVIANO: I was just

20 wondering: Should we introduce whomever's on the

21 phone?

22 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Oh, I'm sorry.

23 It's Angelo on the phone, isn't it?

24 DIRECTOR CHAVIANO: I don't know.

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 7 1 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Angelo, would

2 you like to introduce yourself?

3 MR. MAZZENGA: Yes. I'm Angelo

4 Mazzenga, and I'm the engineer member, and I'm

5 calling in from work in Alexandria, Virginia.

6 COURT REPORTER: I can't hear him.

7 Calling in from where?

8 MR. MAZZENGA: Thank you, Patty.

9 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Uh-huh. Thank

10 you.

11 That was Angelo Mazzenga, and he is

12 at work in Alexandria, Virginia, calling in, and

13 he is our engineering member of the board or

14 engineer member of the board.

15 DIRECTOR CHAVIANO: Right. And I

16 would just add that, you know, for purposes of

17 record keeping, that we do have a quorum at this

18 time for the meeting.

19 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Yes.

20 So unless -- has anybody had a chance

21 to go through the minutes that you would feel

22 comfortable making a motion?

23 (No response.)

24 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Well, then, I

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 8 1 would like to table approving the minutes till

2 perhaps the next meeting so that everybody has a

3 chance to read them first.

4 We have some old business, and that

5 is rider safety/responsibility language, and I

6 need to pass out the re-revised version of them.

7 It's two pages.

8 So what we have done at this point is

9 we have revised the -- what was submitted last

10 year, and I would like for us to read them very

11 carefully here and then either vote to approve to

12 go forward with these or discuss what we would

13 want to change to be able to go forward with them

14 and have them added in to our regulations.

15 If you'd like, I'll just read through

16 them so the audience can all hear what -- what is

17 involved in them. I've got a few extra copies if

18 somebody would like to come up and pass a few

19 out. Anybody? There's two pages.

20 The first thing is just an addition

21 to definitions, and it's a definition of

22 "intoxicated" which "means a person is under the

23 influence of alcohol, a controlled substance, or

24 any substance having the property of releasing

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 9 1 toxic vapors to a degree that a person may

2 endanger himself or another in a public place or

3 in a private place where he unreasonably disturbs

4 other persons."

5 And then the next section is the

6 Rider Safety Section. "An amusement park,

7 carnival, and family entertainment center shall

8 inform riders in writing, where appropriate, of

9 the nature of the ride, including factors which

10 would assist riders in determining whether they

11 should participate in the ride activity and the

12 rules concerning conduct on each ride.

13 Information concerning the rules of conduct may

14 be given verbally at the beginning of each ride

15 segment or posted in writing conspicuously at the

16 entrance to each ride.

17 "Riders are responsible for obeying

18 the posted rules and verbal instructions of the

19 amusement ride operator.

20 "A rider may not board or dismount

21 from an amusement ride except at a designated

22 area; board an amusement ride if he or she has a

23 physical condition that maybe aggravated by

24 participation on the ride; disconnect, disable,

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 10 1 or attempt to disconnect or disable any safety

2 device, seat belt, harness, or other restraining

3 device before, during, or after movement of the

4 amusement ride has started except at the express

5 instruction of the operator; throw or expel any

6 object from an amusement ride; act in my manner

7 contrary to the posted or oral rules while

8 boarding, riding, or dismounting from an

9 amusement ride; or engage in any reckless act or

10 activity which may injure himself or others.

11 "A rider may not board or attempt to

12 board any amusement ride if he is intoxicated.

13 "An operator of an amusement park,

14 carnival, or FEC ride may prevent a rider who is

15 perceptibly or apparently intoxicated from

16 boarding an amusement ride.

17 "An operator who prevents a rider

18 from boarding an amusement ride under this

19 section is not criminally or civilly liable if

20 the operator reasonably believes that the rider

21 is intoxicated.

22 "An amusement park, carnival, or

23 family entertainment center shall post signs and

24 notices in conspicuous locations throughout the

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 11 1 venue, informing riders of the importance of

2 reporting all injuries sustained on amusement

3 park, carnival, and FEC premises. The signs

4 shall contain the location where any injuries may

5 be reported.

6 "A rider or the parent or guardian of

7 a minor rider on the minor's behalf may report in

8 writing to the amusement facility or its

9 designated agent any injury sustained on an

10 amusement ride before leaving the amusement

11 facility premises unless the rider or parent or

12 guardian of a minor rider is unable to file a

13 report because of the severity of the injuries to

14 the rider.

15 "The report shall be filed as soon as

16 reasonably possible and include the name,

17 address, and phone number of the injured person;

18 if the injured person is a minor, the name,

19 address, and phone number of the parent or

20 guardian filing the report; a brief description

21 of the incident causing the injury, including the

22 location, date, and time of the injury; a

23 description of the injury, including the cause if

24 known; and the name, address, and phone number of

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 12 1 any known witnesses to the incident.

2 "The actions of any rider of

3 sufficient age and knowledge to assume the

4 inherent risks of an amusement ride who violates

5 the provisions of Subsections 3, 4, or 5 may be

6 considered by the court in a civil action brought

7 by a rider against the amusement park, carnival,

8 and FEC's operator for injuries sustained while

9 at the amusement park, carnival, and FECs for the

10 purpose of allocating fault between the parties."

11 The end.

12 So I know that's a lot to take in.

13 Does anybody on the board have comments or

14 questions or -- this was passed out in basically

15 this form last year. A few things have been

16 deleted and changed, and I would certainly

17 entertain questions and comments.

18 MS. KIM: I guess what is the -- do

19 you intend on -- is this a recommendation that

20 the board is making -- that the department adopt

21 these rules?

22 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Yes.

23 MS. KIM: Okay. So it's just a

24 recommendation.

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 13 1 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Yes.

2 DIRECTOR CHAVIANO: And that was our

3 general counsel, Helen Kim.

4 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Questions?

5 Comments?

6 MR. SPARKS: I'm good with it.

7 DIRECTOR CHAVIANO: Is anybody going

8 to --

9 In a prior life I was a lawyer --

10 defense lawyer, actually -- representing large

11 companies and manufacturers in personal injury

12 litigation.

13 I think that something like this may

14 have some issues from a legal standpoint in terms

15 of enforceability because, you know, there would

16 already be law in Illinois that would address,

17 you know, comparative negligence, assumption of

18 the risk, and those types of issues.

19 But I'm not here to delve from that

20 standpoint. I'm just kind of raising that as a

21 potential issue with something like this.

22 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Thank you.

23 And I know that this still has to go

24 through the JCAR and quite a few more steps

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 14 1 before it would become part of our regulations,

2 and we would be happy to have a legal opinion on

3 if -- especially if the last -- if 8 -- No. 8 in

4 here is not something that you think would --

5 would be able to be acceptable in Illinois

6 because of other laws already on the books, then

7 I'd be happy to talk about it. We can -- we can

8 mark it out, change it, do whatever we need to

9 do.

10 This is -- this is mostly to have

11 the -- have operators try to give the heads-up to

12 all riders and their parents where that is a

13 factor of what -- you know, what does the ride

14 do. Of course, we always encourage riders to

15 watch a ride before they get on, but also that,

16 just like there are rules of the road, there are

17 rules of the ride. There are rules on planes for

18 what you can -- may and may not do, and the rules

19 of the rides are important. This isn't a, if I

20 may use the term, "magical kingdom" where nothing

21 bad can happen to you. The laws of physics still

22 apply when you're on a carnival or park ride, and

23 this is to help the parents and riders -- parents

24 of minor children and other riders understand

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 15 1 what will help them have a -- have a happy

2 experience and to avoid things that won't.

3 DIRECTOR CHAVIANO: Yeah. I would

4 just say -- and, again, I'm not, you know,

5 weighing on the merits of something like this. I

6 mean, you know, people like me who have raised

7 three boys get it. So it's not that the issue --

8 but I think, just from a -- from an industry

9 standpoint, it may be helpful -- especially if

10 this is something important, you know, for the

11 industry that's present, you know, the

12 manufacturers or whatever -- that rather than

13 just be a proposal in this kind of written form,

14 if you would have, you know, a legal opinion

15 supporting why something like this, you know,

16 would not, you know, be an issue or should not be

17 an issue, that would probably, you know, go a

18 long way towards helping those that need to

19 analyze this in another light for, you know,

20 adopting it or whatever.

21 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Okay. Well,

22 thank you. We're always looking for experts to

23 help us out.

24 Well, so that we can go forward

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 16 1 starting with this document, I would -- I guess

2 we really need a motion to accept the concept of

3 moving forward with this and making whatever

4 changes we need to make to keep the -- keep it

5 within the legal requirements of our -- yeah, the

6 legal requirements of our state and that will be

7 within the acceptance of our boards like the JCAR

8 committee and have everyone happy with the way it

9 reads.

10 So we're not -- we're not making a

11 motion to approve this exactly the way it is but

12 to approve moving forward with it to, as the

13 Director recommended, getting a legal opinion and

14 providing that with it and perhaps having another

15 meeting sometime during the summer to move on

16 forward with this and other things that will

17 probably come up later in this meeting.

18 MR. SPARKS: I'll make that motion.

19 COURT REPORTER: I'm sorry. I need

20 to hear you.

21 MR. SPARKS: I said I'll make a

22 motion.

23 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Do I hear a

24 second?

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 17 1 MR. PERZEE: I'll second it.

2 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Seconded by

3 Marvin Perzee.

4 Any discussion?

5 (No response.)

6 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Those in favor?

7 (Voice vote taken.)

8 DIRECTOR CHAVIANO: I abstain.

9 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Okay.

10 Those opposed?

11 (No response.)

12 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: And one

13 abstention.

14 Okay. Thank you.

15 Then we will move forward with making

16 that into a document that we feel comfortable in

17 presenting to the state to become part of our

18 regulations.

19 The next thing is the anti-waiver

20 clause, and I believe that was submitted at the

21 last meeting, and I don't know -- is there a copy

22 of that in here? Let's look at the minutes and

23 see if maybe it was put in at the end. I don't

24 see it there. Okay. No, I don't -- I don't see

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 18 1 anything in here that we can refer to.

2 But I know it was a comment that

3 wanted -- that Dan wanted to be added in to our

4 regulations to prevent anyone from -- or any

5 entity from having a customer sign a waiver

6 clause, and I think we need to go ahead and act

7 on whether we go forward with that too.

8 I guess the one thing that I see as a

9 problem with that is the ski industry is already

10 part of what our board is responsible for, and

11 the ski industry already has the ability to have

12 their skiers sign waivers. If they as much as go

13 on -- out on the mountain, they have appreciably

14 waived their rights because they're responsible

15 to ski in a safe manner and within their

16 capabilities.

17 So as far as adding an anti-waiver

18 clause to our particular regulations, I would

19 think that would be something that couldn't fly

20 because we already have laws to the contrary.

21 Are there any other comments or

22 questions on that?

23 (No response.)

24 MS. KIM: I'm sorry. Could you

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 19 1 repeat that? Not the -- just the last of the --

2 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Okay. Well, I

3 would like us to go ahead and move forward

4 whether we want to follow through looking into

5 this further or not because my concern is that

6 the ski industry, who is part of our purview on

7 this board --

8 MS. KIM: So you want to see if you

9 can -- you want to take a vote on whether or not

10 you want to move forward to look into the

11 discussion.

12 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Yes.

13 MS. KIM: Okay.

14 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN Okay?

15 Would anybody be willing to make a

16 motion to -- to say, "Yes, we would like to

17 pursue this;" or, "No, we would not like to

18 pursue this for our board to consider"?

19 (No response.)

20 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Nobody's saying

21 anything.

22 Well, I don't know, then, Robert's

23 Rules-wise. Can -- can a chair make a motion?

24 MS. KIM: No.

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 20 1 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Okay. I didn't

2 think so. Okay.

3 Well, then, I --

4 MR. PERZEE: Is what you're wanting

5 to do is to look into this a little further?

6 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: No. What I

7 want to do is have us decide, (a), do we want to

8 look into it; or, (b), do we want to basically

9 throw it out because it is contrary to laws that

10 are already in place.

11 So I'm looking for a motion for one

12 of those.

13 (Ms. Rhodes arrived.)

14 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: And we have

15 another board member with us.

16 MS. RHODES: Hello. I'm sorry that

17 I'm late.

18 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: That's okay.

19 MS. RHODES: Coming from another

20 meeting.

21 CHAIRWOMAN RHODES: This is Linda

22 Rhodes.

23 So, Marvin, were you getting ready to

24 make a motion?

Page 21 1 MR. PERZEE: I don't know if I'm

2 getting ready to make a motion but --

3 DIRECTOR CHAVIANO: Use the

4 microphone, please.

5 MR. PERZEE: If the laws are already

6 on the books that says that this isn't

7 applicable, then shouldn't we stop here with it?

8 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Well, that's my

9 thought, but this was brought up to the board,

10 and I think we need to make a decision to not --

11 not pursue it further if -- for that reason

12 unless someone wants to.

13 MR. PERZEE: I would make that

14 motion.

15 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Okay. Not to

16 pursue this particular -- an anti-waiver clause?

17 Right? Okay.

18 COURT REPORTER: I need a verbal

19 answer, please.

20 MR. PERZEE: Yes.

21 COURT REPORTER: Thank you.

22 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Do I hear a

23 second?

24 MR. SPARKS: I'll second it.

2 Bill.

3 Now, is there any other discussion?

4 (No response.)

5 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Then I would

15 abstaining.

17 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Two abstain.

18 Two abstentions. Okay.

19 Then there were five ayes, two

20 abstentions.

21 Then the motion passes, and we will

22 not pursue the anti-waiver clause.

23 For new business, we are ready to

24 have our division manager report, and Bill

7 people that don't know who I am, I'm Bill

8 Szerletich, and I'm the central Illinois

9 inspector, and I'm going to call out our other

10 inspectors. Since I'm up here, they're going to

11 stand up too.

12 Margaret Royer from Chicago is our

13 senior inspector back there. They're all back

14 there.

15 (Applause.)

16 MR. SZERLETICH: Matt Rohman is the

17 northwest territory inspector.

18 (Applause.)

19 MR. SZERLETICH: Brian Brown is our

20 south -- southern Illinois inspector.

Page 24 1 MR. SZERLETICH: Pete actually had

2 his first full year on his own and did very well.

3 So what I want to do is go over some

4 stats for the amusement ride division, and we

5 actually had -- well, first, we'll go over the

6 statistics. We'll go over accident report,

7 safety bulletins, and department updates.

8 We had an uptick in inspections, for

9 sure, with Pete coming on.

10 The show dates, a little less. As

11 you can see, in 2015 we did 1,430 show dates.

12 1,183 follow-up inspections. That's

13 up about 120 inspections from last year.

14 4,230 inspections issued total, and

15 that's up about 440.

16 672 total locations, and 398 total

17 companies. 50 more locations, and about 50 more

18 companies than last year.

19 Our accident report this year, we

20 had -- or I'm sorry -- last year. In 2015 we had

21 21 accidents. That's down from 2014 but still

22 kind of up where we don't really want to see

23 them.

24 Out of those 21 accidents, 17 of them

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 25 1 were non-mechanical, 4 of them were mechanical.

2 And I think what I'll do is just

3 summarize this a little bit.

4 8 of these non-mechanical incidents

5 were actually, as you can see, simulators from

6 two different companies. You take that away,

7 that significantly reduces it.

8 We had a non-mechanical incident on a

9 train that ran into an elevator at the mall.

10 We had a mechanical injury cause some

11 back pain.

12 A non-mechanical where someone had a

13 seizure.

14 Another non-mechanical, laceration on

15 forehead.

16 Mechanical on a coaster that caused

17 two people to get injured. One was a pain in

18 their thigh, and the other one was a pain in

19 their rib.

20 We did have one fatality this year --

21 last year. I'm sorry. It was a non-mechanical

22 on Pharoah's Fury. As you can see, the

23 individual entered underneath the ride while the

24 ride was in motion and was struck.

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 26 1 We had another non-mechanical where a

2 patron fell, hit the side of the platform, and

3 cut their lip.

4 Another that was a laceration on the

5 head.

6 Another non-mechanical that was a

7 fracture and dislocation of their -- a bone in

8 their neck.

9 And then a mechanical, laceration on

10 the forehead.

11 A haunted house that had a wall

12 partition tip over. We're not sure where the

13 injury was.

14 And, finally, another non-mechanical

15 that was an inflatable, elbow fracture.

16 And that takes care of the accidents.

17 Like I said, 17 were non-mechanical, 4 of them

18 were mechanical. And that's the breakdown of the

19 accident reports by year.

20 MS. RHODES: Quick question for the

21 chair. If there are questions from the board

22 about the accident report, did you want that to

23 be after he's finished?

24 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: I would ask --

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 27 1 as far as the accidents go, I would ask about

2 them now while we're -- I would ask them about

3 them now while we've just gone through them so

4 you don't forget.

5 MS. RHODES: Thank you, Patty.

6 The question I just have is if

7 there's any additional information you're able to

8 share on the fatality.

9 MR. SZERLETICH: Actually, one of our

10 inspectors that was the first one on the scene

11 may be able to speak to that.

12 Pete, could you help her out?

13 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Would you stand

14 up, please.

15 COURT REPORTER: And maybe get the

16 microphone.

17 DIRECTOR CHAVIANO: Yeah, there's a

18 microphone coming.

19 COURT REPORTER: And your name?

20 MR. TOMCZUK: My name is Peter

21 Tomczuk.

22 What I can tell you is that we were

23 advised it's under legal matters. There hasn't

24 be been anything set forth yet. I can tell you

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 28 1 what I did, how the company responded, but I

2 can't go into any further.

3 We were advised that a ride was

4 called. Margaret, the senior inspector, was

5 called. We both showed up at the scene.

6 The company advised us that there was

7 a fatality within seconds of it happening. I

8 returned back to the scene itself, did an

9 investigation, worked with Naperville police,

10 DuPage County coroner's office. And then we were

11 advised -- Ryan advised us to not speak to

12 anybody, and then legal -- you know, legal office

13 took over, and that's as far as we can go.

14 MS. RHODES: Thank you.

15 MR. TOMCZUK: Thank you.

16 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: In other words,

17 we --

18 COURT REPORTER: I'm sorry?

19 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: I said, in

20 other words, I guess at this time there isn't

21 other information that we can get.

22 The customer ran under it then or --

23 but I didn't understand --

24 MR. SZERLETICH: We may have

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 29 1 something that I might be able to find. I would

2 have to --

3 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Enlighten us?

4 MR.SZERLETICH: -- look and see.

5 Yeah. I'm not sure where it was left off.

6 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Okay.

7 MR. SZERLETICH: Because I think Ryan

8 and Pete, I'm assuming, did the report on it?

9 MR. TOMCZUK: Yes.

10 MR. SZERLETICH: But it was my

11 understanding that he went into an area of the

12 ride where he shouldn't have been while the ride

13 was in motion, was struck, and outside of that, I

14 don't know. I'll have to look and see what I can

15 get for you.

16 MS. RHODES: Patty, thanks for

17 letting me ask.

18 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Sure.

19 MS. RHODES: And I appreciate the

20 addit -- any additional information you're able

21 to share with us in case there are some learnings

22 we can take into account based on why we're here.

23 We can't control everything, but if there's

24 something that we can influence, that we can

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 30 1 capture those learnings and see what we can do,

2 if anything.

3 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Maybe prevent

4 the next one.

5 MS. RHODES: Correct.

6 MR. SZERLETICH: Well, I'll certainly

7 look for it and see where we're at with it.

8 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Thank you.

9 MR. SZERLETICH: So moving on to the

10 safety bulletins for 2015, we have, I think,

11 about six of them.

12 Mainly, the Wisdom Gravitron,

13 Starship, Alien Abduction, Centrifuge. You guys

14 have probably all seen the bulletin on the trap

15 door where the manufacturer's requiring it to be

16 locked, bolted, or welded shut. And then they

17 came out in April with another alternative, and

18 that's installing a microswitch to the trap door.

19 And nothing has changed from that point. I had

20 heard some, you know, talkings about maybe the

21 manufacturer changing their mind again, but we

22 haven't seen nothing.

23 The next thing is the Zamperla Family

24 Coaster. They had cracking on the T-bars for the

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 31 1 rides that have been in service for little over

2 15 years. They want those to be NDT'd. I think

3 it's mag particle that they're requesting. It's

4 an inspection -- mag particle inspection.

5 Fabbri has the Sky Tower. I don't

6 know of anybody that has a Fabbri Sky Tower, but

7 the Sky Tower installation -- they want to have a

8 catching device installed on it as a safety

9 backup for a cable failure, and then an

10 engineering study to be done on it every year.

11 And Fabbri, from what I understand,

12 is out of business.

13 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Really?

14 MR. SPARKS: I didn't know that.

15 MR. SZERLETICH: Couple --

16 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Do you know

17 when they supposedly went out of business?

18 MR. SZERLETICH: No. This particular

19 bulletin talked about that.

20 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Okay.

21 MR. SZERLETICH: And it didn't really

22 say when. It just said that they are currently

23 out of business, and the owners of the ride

24 basically are taking responsibility as a

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 32 1 manufacturer for the ride.

2 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Okay. Thank

3 you.

4 DIRECTOR CHAVIANO: If I may, Bill,

5 by way of adding on to the question regarding

6 this unfortunate incident, I was just provided

7 with a Chicago Tribune article where it talks

8 about the death being ruled a suicide, and this

9 is what the newsflash dated August 18, 2015,

10 says: "The death of a man on the opening day of

11 Naperville's annual Ribfest celebration over the

12 4th of July weekend has been ruled a suicide by

13 the DuPage County coroner's office," and then it

14 goes on to, you know, talk about the incident in

15 more detail.

16 Thank you.

17 MS. RHODES: Thank you.

18 MR. SZERLETICH: So getting back to

19 the bulletins here, it looks like there's a

20 couple ski lift bulletins -- and a couple of our

21 ski lift facilities actually have lifts --

22 talking about the underspeed switch for the

23 emergency brake system. Some of the underspeed

24 switches were not sensing properly and needed to

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 33 1 be replaced. It has to sense so many feet per

2 minute, and if it doesn't do that, the brakes

3 will kick in. So Partek and Borgiv were two of

4 the lifts that has that underspeed switch.

5 And also a Doppelmayr bulletin came

6 out for the detachable type A spring guide slide

7 grips that was getting -- they were finding

8 hairline cracks during NDTs on the shaft where

9 the thread meets the shaft, and there is a

10 criteria. If it's less than .03 millimeters, you

11 can grind that out, and as long as it isn't so

12 long or so deep, you can reuse those grips. If

13 it does -- if it's any deeper than that, you do

14 have to replace it.

15 And that bulletin -- I have all these

16 bulletins. They will be posted on the website.

17 They aren't right now, but they will be soon. So

18 if anybody needs to see these, you can get them

19 off our website.

20 And, then, finally, NAFLIC sent a few

21 bulletins on -- one was the Tea Cup that had

22 cracking around the radial arm pinholes right

23 where they attach in the center. A lot of

24 these -- like, the A.R.M. Rides, you know, your

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 34 1 Rock Star, Ali-baba, 1001 Nights -- have pinion

2 gears and slew rings. Those have been -- they've

3 been seeing some cracking in those.

4 And even the -- I'm not sure I've got

5 that on here, but the shoulder harness lock

6 assembly -- those bars that have the ratchets on

7 them -- they've been finding some cracks on

8 those. So some things to be looking out for when

9 you're doing your daily inspections and your

10 maintenance inspections.

11 And our non-destructive testing. If

12 there's ever any question about what rides

13 require an NDT, you can go to our website,

14 ridesafety.illinois.gov, and our NDT list which

15 we update yearly is on there, and it has not been

16 updated yet, but it will be updated before season

17 starts for sure. Probably within the month.

18 So any ride that you're -- most you

19 guys know what ride requires an NDT, and any new

20 bulletins you can find on the website. Any NDT

21 you can find on the website.

22 And, then, finally, just a few notes

23 for department policies. Applications must be

24 received 30 days prior to playing the first spot

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 35 1 of the year. We have an expedited inspection fee

2 that we charge if it's under 30 days.

3 There are some instances where you --

4 you know, there's no way that you could have --

5 you may have been asked to play a spot that

6 wasn't on your regular route. In situations like

7 that, we take that all into consideration, and if

8 that's the case, a lot of times that fee may be

9 waived. It's on a case-by-case basis, though.

10 Finally, owners and operators that

11 have Chance Zipper rides, if you remember the

12 K-bar bulletin from last year -- and I'm looking

13 around. I'm not sure there's anybody in here

14 that has a Zipper. Maybe Kent. Do you have a

15 Zipper? No. Okay.

16 Well, anyway, this bulletin talks

17 about the K-bars having a little bit of wear

18 where the pinholes are that hold the tubs on.

19 Well, they have to be looked at every year.

20 We have a compliance statement since it isn't

21 feasible to have the ride apart when we show up

22 to do the inspection. So if you do the

23 inspection, you should do it yearly, fill out

24 this compliance statement, and send it in with

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 36 1 your paperwork. I have copies. We can also put

2 a copy on the website. I've got them here

3 tonight if you need it and also got a copy of the

4 bulletin.

5 So, you know, we got a handful of

6 owners that have Zippers, and they went through

7 the process last year with no problem. So if

8 anybody needs it, I have.

9 And that is it.

10 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Thank you,

11 Bill.

12 Are there any questions from the

13 board for Bill?

14 (No response.)

15 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: I understand

16 that you didn't have a whole lot of advance

17 notice that you were going to be doing this. So

18 we do appreciate your putting all this together

19 and presenting it tonight and please, everybody,

20 be patient as you're trying to --

21 (Applause.)

22 MR. SZERLETICH: Thank you.

23 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: -- trying to

24 get all our rides in there because he's kind of a

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 37 1 one-man band right now, and so any help that you

2 can give him in getting things in early, I'm sure

3 would be appreciated. It's a big job for him,

4 and I think, actually, all the inspectors deserve

5 a little accolade from all of us for helping keep

6 things inspected and keep our rides as safe as we

7 can make them. So I'd like to thank all of them

8 at this time.

9 (Applause.)

10 MR. SZERLETICH: I'd also like to say

11 that 17 non-mechanical incidents and 4 mechanical

12 incidents, I feel, is pretty good, and that's a

13 testament to you people that take care of your

14 rides and the inspectors that look at them.

15 We're all in this for the same reason, and I

16 think that's just a testament to everybody and

17 how much they care.

18 (Applause.)

19 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Thank you,

20 Bill.

21 Yes, it does take everybody. Nobody

22 can do it on their own.

23 The next meeting locations and times

24 for 2016 is -- and I'm hoping that our director

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 38 1 brought those dates.

2 DIRECTOR CHAVIANO: Rosie.

3 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Is Rosie here?

4 There's Rosie. She's coming up to the

5 microphone.

6 July 19th is the next board meeting,

7 and it will be in Chicago in what? Afternoon

8 or -- okay.

9 DIRECTOR CHAVIANO: Okay. I got a

10 shy executive assistant.

11 So it will be July 19th. It will be

12 at noon -- that's what she said; right?

13 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Afternoon

14 sometime.

15 DIRECTOR CHAVIANO: The afternoon

16 sometime, time to be determined, and it will be

17 in Chicago.

18 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Thank you.

19 And thank you, Rosie. We really

20 appreciate all that you do to keep us informed

21 and get the word out for all of us, and I know

22 that's a lot. I'm sure the director keeps you

23 very busy with things. So we appreciate what you

24 do for our board.

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 39 1 So July 19th in Chicago in the

2 afternoon. Did everybody get a chance to write

3 that down?

4 The next thing we'd like to do is do

5 a little discussion of indoor trampolines. I

6 noticed that one of the accidents was on a

7 trampoline, and nationwide these trampoline

8 courts have become very -- a very big deal.

9 They're just going up as fast as you can count

10 them, and the accident reports from them have

11 become a little bit overwhelming in many areas.

12 And I know we like to try to keep up

13 on this board so that our regulations keep up

14 with what's going on out there and to hopefully

15 prevent as many accidents as possible.

16 And I would -- I would like to

17 suggest -- ASTM, the F-24 Committee, actually did

18 do a new standard for trampolines -- the Standard

19 Practice for Design, Manufacture, Installation,

20 Operation, Maintenance, Inspection, and Major

21 Modification of Trampoline Courts -- because

22 there have been -- I don't know -- those of you

23 who are old enough may recall in the '60s

24 trampolines became a big thing, and there were a

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 40 1 lot of accidents, and trampolines kind of went by

2 the wayside, and now they're coming in to

3 popularity again.

4 So those in the F24 Committee thought

5 it would behoove everyone to help the trampoline

6 industry to be able to operate as safely as

7 possible. And so there is a new standard which

8 is F2970-15, and it is somewhat lengthy. It goes

9 into almost everything that you can imagine,

10 including padding around any kind of building,

11 structural members, lights, all that kind of

12 thing.

13 And I think I would like to see us

14 not only have Bill, perhaps, become a member of

15 ASTM but for the standard to be sent to all the

16 board members to read through and so we can

17 perhaps decide at our next meeting if we would

18 like to incorporate that into our regulations.

19 It's quite extensive, and we will --

20 I would like to say -- I think a lot of you may

21 be ASTM members who are out there. So you

22 probably receive the new -- this is the 2015 book

23 with all the regulations for our industry. And

24 so I invite all of you to read those over because

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 41 1 I think this will be a coming thing. Hopefully,

2 we can get it at least passed from our board

3 to -- and sent to -- does it go straight to JCAR

4 and then to our -- and then for a public meeting,

5 or does it go to public meeting -- public hearing

6 first?

7 MS. KIM: For the adoption of the

8 rules?

9 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Uh-huh.

10 MS. KIM: Any proposed rulemaking

11 that the department undertakes has to go through

12 a public hearing process.

13 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Okay.

14 MS. KIM: And that's after whether

15 the board -- the department, after consultation

16 with this board, decides to proceed with any

17 rulemaking.

18 Just to be clear, because you

19 recommend those rulemaking doesn't necessarily

20 mean the department will go forward with any

21 proposed rule.

22 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: So, anyway, I

23 guess we will try to get those out before the

24 next meeting. Hopefully, relatively soon,

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 42 1 because it's a lot to read and just -- you can't

2 just thumb through it in ten minutes and know

3 what it says. But okay.

4 We're about to -- so is there any

5 other new business to bring up?

6 MS. RHODES: I have a comment. I

7 don't know if that is new business.

8 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Comments are

9 always good.

10 MS. RHODES: Thank you.

11 DIRECTOR CHAVIANO: There's a

12 microphone down there.

13 MS. RHODES: Thank you.

14 Now that we have the date for the

15 next meeting, though, I understand when the next

16 meeting is, but I did want to mention something,

17 for the benefit of those assembled, that Bill and

18 I already talked about and he's following up on

19 for me, and that is there was some kind of

20 communication glitch where I only found out about

21 this meeting yesterday.

22 And so my request is that that be

23 investigated, even if it turns out it was my

24 fault -- my understanding, it was an e-mail

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 43 1 glitch, though -- so that I can get proper

2 notification along with the rest of the board

3 going forward and be able to have full

4 participation in the meeting.

5 I will say, though, that I do

6 appreciate everyone's patience with me coming in

7 when I did. Hopefully, though, the issue with

8 whatever happened won't happen going forward.

9 I also wanted to make a request, if

10 it's allowed, to -- and I appreciate the

11 additional information on the fatality that

12 occurred in July. But if there is a way that

13 this body can receive more information on all of

14 the events that occurred last year so that we

15 can, for the same reason that I stated earlier,

16 see if there are some additional lessons learned

17 that we otherwise wouldn't be talking about in

18 here with the experts that might allow us to look

19 for mitigators going forward. That's a request I

20 would like to make.

21 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Okay.

22 MS. RHODES: And if that's a

23 subcommittee, I'd be happy to lead it, but that's

24 a request that I have.

Page 44 1 Thanks.

2 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Well, Linda,

3 we're more than happy to be patient with you.

4 It's nice to have you here. I'm glad you could

5 get here this quickly.

6 As far as those -- all the accidents

7 went, I noticed quite a few of them were on

8 simulators.

9 And, Bill, maybe you can come back up

10 and let us know or give us an idea. When people

11 get hurt on simulators, are they -- what kind of

12 restraints do they have on? How -- what --

13 Come on, Margaret. Margaret is

14 evidently the expert on this or at least the

15 person who's had to deal with it more than anyone

16 else.

17 -- so that we can kind of understand

18 where shoulder injuries and hip injuries and

19 things like that come from on simulators because

20 it seems like that's kind of a high -- high

21 number.

22 COURT REPORTER: I need your name,

23 please.

24 MS. ROYER: My name is Margaret

2 COURT REPORTER: Royer?

3 MS. ROYER: Royer, R-o-y-e-r.

4 COURT REPORTER: Thank you.

5 MS. ROYER: The accidents were on sky

6 diving simulators, and it was something that,

7 when they came to us and we were going to

8 regulate them, asking them what kind of

9 incidences they do have, they were very up front

10 with the biggest problem they have are people

11 hurting their shoulders, dislocating their

12 shoulders.

13 They -- and when we got the first

14 reports, Ryan actually went out and did the

15 initial investigations and everything -- and I

16 have also been out myself -- to see that they

17 have quite a bit of signage. Very much they make

18 people aware of the situation and that they

19 absolutely should not do this activity if they

20 have shoulder issues and why they shouldn't.

21 The nature of when you do the

22 simulator is your body blocks most of the air,

23 and that's how you float. Your arms and legs

24 actually go quite far behind you; and, literally,

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 46 1 if you have a shoulder problem or have had

2 previous dislocation, things like that, you can

3 hurt your shoulder, and they are -- like I said,

4 we went out, and we made sure that they had the

5 signage and letting people know.

6 It comes down to a situation of that

7 you can only educate them so much, and then

8 they're going to do what they want to do, and

9 that's literally what all of these have been --

10 is a shoulder problem from -- from the way that

11 the ride actually works.

12 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: So if you can

13 explain a little bit more. It's upward-flowing

14 air holding someone up there?

15 MS. ROYER: Yes. So it's -- they

16 actually have fans that are on top of the

17 building that actually suck the air in and blow

18 it down and back up through a tube that has a

19 mesh floor, and depending on your size and weight

20 and things, it's actually geared towards the

21 person to how much air flow there has to be. And

22 so, if you're a bigger person, there's more air

23 flow.

24 And so you have to think about the

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 47 1 fact that your arms and legs don't weigh nearly

2 as much as the trunk of your body does. So

3 they're really out there flailing and back; and,

4 you know, you can pretty much Google, you know,

5 a video of it or whatever and see the position

6 that your body gets in. And when you go into

7 these facilities, you see -- you know, they show

8 you on the screens and everything videos of what

9 it's like, what's going to happen, and

10 everything. So they do a good job of making

11 people aware of the situation; so --

12 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Okay. Thank

13 you.

14 MS. ROYER: Yep.

15 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Hopefully,

16 we're all about prevention; so I don't know how

17 much farther we can go if the people are being

18 warned.

19 Are there any other comments by the

20 board? Questions?

21 (No response.)

22 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Well, then,

23 let's open it up for public comments and

24 questions. Please come up. I think Rosie's got

2 this podium up here, Rosie can get the microphone

3 to you.

4 And please give your name so our kind

5 note-taker can keep track of what's going on.

6 No questions or comments?

7 MS. VAUGHN: Margaret Vaughn with the

8 OABA as well as the Illinois Association of

9 Agricultural Fairs.

10 The language for the rider

11 responsibility -- did you get it from another of

12 state or what was the genesis?

13 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Well, it began

14 from another state. It was already state law

15 there. This is, in fact, state law in this or

16 verbiage very much like it in a number of other

17 states.

18 MS. VAUGHN: Okay. Thank you.

19 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: We have a quiet

20 group tonight.

21 MS. SALERNO: Hello. Juanita Salerno

22 from All Around Amusement.

23 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: You need to say

24 that a little slower.

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 49 1 MS. SALERNO: Juanita,

2 J-u-a-n-i-t-a, Salerno, S-a-l-e-r-n-o. All

3 Around Amusement.

4 Just in regards to the Riders

5 Responsibility Act where you say the language

6 needs -- or it needs to be posted in a language,

7 are we just speaking English? I think that

8 should be spelled out in there -- what language

9 we're referring to. I know we're an

10 English-speaking country, but there are others;

11 so -- so we're in compliance if this comes

12 aboard.

13 And then the other item I think

14 should be addressed in that is persons reaching

15 over and out of the car of the ride, the top of a

16 ride -- telling them not to reach out or persons

17 standing on the outside reaching in with any

18 object or grabbing anything, a stationary object.

19 I had an incident last year where,

20 you know, we're always telling our operators keep

21 your -- you know, tell the parents to keep their

22 hands on their side of the fence and the

23 children's hands inside their ride, and parents

24 are constantly reaching over with inflates or

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 50 1 their hands, and one person told me that he would

2 sit in a car -- a moving vehicle and reach out

3 and grab a stationary object. And, you know, I

4 don't know why we need to tell people that, but I

5 think that should be addressed as well.

6 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Okay.

7 MS. SALERNO: Thank you.

8 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Thank you.

9 Anybody else?

10 I think that's a good idea. You're

11 the ones who know what bad things have happened

12 and especially if they've caused accidents, and

13 so if we can address those, I think this is the

14 place, certainly, that we want to do it.

15 MR. KNIGHT: My name is Doug Knight

16 with Knight's Action Park, Springfield.

17 I just want to thank the inspectors

18 because, you know, we're all seeking the same

19 goal, to be save. That is my company's number

20 one goal as well as, I'm sure, everybody in this

21 room, and I'm glad to see that we're doing

22 something about rider responsibility because

23 it -- you know, let's face it. We have go-carts

24 at our facility, and I'm turning control of the

MIDWEST LITIGATION SERVICES www.midwestlitigation.com Phone: 1.800.280.DEPO(3376) Fax: 314.644.1334 BOARD MEETING 1/14/2016

Page 51 1 ride --

2 COURT REPORTER: I'm sorry. You're

3 turning what?

4 MR. KNIGHT: -- turning the control

5 of the ride over to our guests; and, you know --

6 or somebody can rock the seat in the ferris wheel

7 or, you know, undo a safety device or something

8 like that. I mean, you know, we try to get on

9 top of that stuff and correct them as quickly as

10 you can, but a lot of times people are out, you

11 know, wanting to show off with their friends or

12 let their ego get in the way of things and not

13 aware of the harm they can cause other people.

14 And as a person who is in the

15 business of building memories, creating memories

16 for families in the State of Illinois and

17 visitors to the State of Illinois, it's important

18 for me to be a hundred percent safe, and I think

19 by adding something like this to the code will

20 benefit everybody.

21 CHAIRWOMAN SULLIVAN: Thank you.

22 (Applause.)

6 COURT REPORTER: Thank you.

7 MR. SCHOENDIENST: Just wanted to

8 bring up a point about the Rider Responsibility

9 Act.

10 I think the reasoning here -- and

11 most people look at it as it's going to be an

12 advantage possibly for the ride operator and so

13 forth from a legal standpoint. And I think, more

14 than anything, that's not really what we're

15 looking for. I understand that that's where it

16 comes down to, but more than anything, we want to

17 be able to tell the patron -- we want them to be

18 aware that it is also their responsibility, that

19 we want them to strive more for safety. You

20 understand what I'm saying? Not just -- not just

21 from a legal standpoint because we all know, when

22 it comes down, you know, to brass tacks, in court

23 it's another ball game. But we want the patrons

24 to know that it also is part of their job. They

4 That's all I want to say. Thank you
