Park Board and Committee meetings are meetings held in public, not a public meeting. The Board invites both oral and written communications from its residents. To facilitate the conduct of Board/Committee meetings, the following procedures will be followed: 1. A section of each regular meeting is set aside for public comment and will be noted on the agenda as “Recognition of Visitors.” 2. During the “Recognition of Visitors” agenda item, audience members should raise their hands and be recognized by the President/Chairperson prior to speaking. 3. When recognized by the President/Chairperson, each audience member should identify themselves and limit speaking to no more than three (3) minutes, unless additional time is granted by the President/Chairperson. 4. Questions are to be directed to the entire Board/Committee. 5. Park Board members may, by addressing the President/Chairperson, interrupt a presenter to obtain clarification and/or further information. 6. A Board/Committee meeting is not a forum for complaints against individual employees. Such matters are handled by directly contacting the Executive Director. Complaints against the Executive Director should be handled by directly contacting the President of the Board of Park Commissioners. 7. During presentation and discussion of agenda items, the President/Chairperson will not recognize speakers in the audience unless the Board/Committee desires additional information from an audience member. 8. When addressing the Board/Committee, all persons permitted to speak shall confine their remarks to the matter at hand and avoid personal remarks, the impugning of motives, and merely contentious statements. If any person indulges in such remarks or otherwise engages in conduct injurious to the civil discourse of the Board/Committee and the meeting, the President/Chairperson may immediately terminate the opportunity to speak. This decision is at the discretion of the President/Chairperson or upon the affirmative vote of two-thirds (2/3) of the park board commissioners present. 9. Any person, except a member of the Board, who engages in disorderly conduct during a meeting, may be ejected from the meeting upon motion passed by a majority of the Board present. 2 Date Time Event Location July 3 8:00a Yankee Doodle Dash Gillson Park July 3 4:00p Fireworks Celebration Gillson Park July 6 1:00p DJ on Deck Centennial Pool July 6 8:00p Sounds of Summer - The Millenials Wallace Bowl July 7 4:00p Sounds of Summer - Guitarra Azul Mallinckrodt Park July 8 8:00p Sounds of Summer - Rick Kelly Mallinckrodt Park July 10 12:30p Sounds of Summer - Jeanie B!

Communications and Correspondence President Wolfe commented that in addition to those in the packet, several letters were received after the packet was posted. All correspondence was related to Thornwood Park and will be added to the packet on the website. Prior to “Recognition of Visitors”, Matt Moffet of Baxter Woodman gave a presentation on different storm water configurations at the various park locations. He explained that due to the feedback received from the public input sessions regarding the number of trees impacted, the Village is looking at other configuration options that would provide the same results, while still considering construction costs. Mr. Moffett described the different options and specifications for each location. Several of the options include pump stations versus the original gravity-fed systems, which reduces the footprint and has some initial cost savings, but may have additional maintenance costs long term. Following the presentation, Mr. Moffett responded to questions from the Board. President Wolfe then addressed the audience and asked if anyone was interested in addressing the Board. Kathleen Sullivan, 1225 Colgate, Wilmette – read a statement about the project and its impact on Thornwood Park. She expressed her hope that all options have been considered. Sophie Candido, 1221 Colgate, Wilmette – read a statement about the project and the effects of storm water on the neighborhood.
