1 The Village Board of Trustees Special Meeting April 25, 2013 A P P R O V E D VILLAGE OF GLENVIEW BOARD OF TRUSTEES SPECIAL MEETING April 25, 2013 M I N UT E S Village President Kerry Cummings called the meeting of the Board of Trustees to order at 7:31 PM 1. ROLL CALL Present: President Cummings, Trustees Britton, Cuisinier (arrived 6:36 PM), Detlefs, Jenny, Karton and White Absent: None Also Present: Village Manager Hileman, Deputy Village Manager Owen, Village Attorney Patt, Director of Planning/Economic Development Bak, Director of Capital Projects Kenney, Deputy Fire Chief Ensign, Recorder Joanne McDonagh 2. FLAG CEREMONY President Cummings led those present in the Pledge of Allegiance. 3. APPROVAL OF MINUTES: None 10. OLD BUSINESS: None 11. NEW BUSINESS a. Discussion and direction on pedestrian traffic flow around the Glenview Public Library Director Kenney reported that this topic has been under discussion since before the library was built. The Board recommended that staff monitor the midblock crossing over time. After the library opened, staff provided an update to the Board in October, 2012 with options for consideration. The Board asked staff to return this spring (tonight s presentation) with additional information related to fencing and the stop signs. Fencing The previous option was to extend the fence to the existing crosswalk north of the library or beyond to the southerly most crosswalk by the train station. In October, staff was asked to evaluate a shorter fence intended to address the pedestrian traffic to the library front door and the Dairy Bar. The Board will consider tonight whether to leave the area as it was originally designed or install 190 feet of new fence just beyond the existing landscaping. Stop Signs The existing stop signs at the midblock crosswalk were also discussed prior to the building of the new library. The stop signs remained in place throughout construction, even when no crosswalk existed in that area. The crosswalk was studied on an August day in 2012 at the peak PM hour. The 56 pedestrian crossings that were recorded do not warrant a stop sign. However it is acceptable to keep the existing stop signs status quo. The options under consideration are: (1) Status Quo (2) State Law Crosswalk Signs added to Center Islands (State Law to Stop for Pedestrians within Crosswalk) (3) Remove Stop Signs and Add State Law Crosswalk Signs to Center Islands (4) Remove Stop Signs, Replace Existing Crosswalk Signs with Pushbutton Flashing Beacons Director Kenney noted that the state law crosswalk signs are used as a traffic calming option in downtown north shore suburbs, such as Evanston, Winnetka and Morton Grove. Cars only stop when pedestrians are in the crosswalk rather than 24/7. This is concerning from a vehicle traffic perspective. Village traffic consultant Tom Adomshick, Benes & Associates, was present to address questions from the Board. Discussion related to the existing stop signs: Mr. Bill Casey, Glenview resident and Park District Board member, felt that the midblock crossing was very safe. It is in his neighborhood and he uses it often. He also uses the two crosswalks by the train station, noting that traffic doesn t always stop. Those particular crosswalks have pushbutton flashing beacons. Many school children from Our Lady of Perpetual Help visit the Dairy Bar, especially those from Swainwood, and then cross back to their neighborhood. When the No Turn on Red sign at Waukegan and Glenview Road was discussed by the Board, a traffic expert said, in order to keep the area safe, the No Turn on Red should apply 24 hours a day rather than only from 7:00 AM to 7 PM. This alerts motorists that stopping is required every time. Jackman

2 Park will be redesigned next year with play pieces geared toward older kids. They will use the midblock crossing often. He favored keeping the stop signs in place and the crosswalk status quo. President Cummings received an from Mr. Casey s neighbor who expressed the same concerns and was also in favor of leaving the stop signs in place so the crosswalk would remain status quo. Village traffic consultant Tom Adomshick responded to questions about the pushbutton flashing beacons, which were installed at the two train station crosswalks before the state law crosswalk signage was added to the MUTCD. The state law crosswalk signage could be installed at those crossings in the pavement but they would be exposed to damage from traffic and other maintenance issues. State law crosswalk signage at the midblock crossing by the library would be installed in the raised median. Trustee Cuisinier said stop signs are an incentive for motorists to slow up and give pedestrians an opportunity to safely cross the street. He considers the crosswalk to be dangerous as there are many children and families in the area visiting the library and the Dairy Bar. He supported option (1) to leave the crosswalk status quo. President Cummings also favored keeping the crosswalk status quo. Trustee Detlefs favored Option (2) keep the stop signs and add state law crosswalk signage to center islands. Trustee Karton drives through the area several times a week around 6:00 to 6:15 PM, which is dusk in the fall and spring and dark in the winter. She is also in the area on Saturday mornings. Stop signs provide a false sense of safety. She has seen children on skateboards not looking out for traffic. She felt that pushbutton flashing beacons provide better pedestrian safety. She has seen cars ignore the stop sign and go through the crosswalk when no pedestrians are present. Trustee Karton was also concerned about the two crosswalks to the north. Sometimes pedestrians don t push the button and just walk into the crosswalk. At dark or dusk, those crosswalks are dangerous since it is difficult to see pedestrians. Also, pedestrians often choose to just cross anywhere rather than go to a crosswalk. She asked if a street light or another lighting option could be discussed. Director Kenney said minor adjustments have already been made by Public Works. Staff will report on those results at a future Village Board meeting. Trustee White agreed that pedestrians often cross outside the crosswalks north of the library. In terms of the midblock crossing, he had reservations about Option (2) to leave the stop signs in place and add state law crosswalk signage. This could be confusing to motorists who might think they only need to stop when pedestrians are present. He added that motorists also tend to disobey the 25 MPH speed limit. He wants a combination of traffic calming elements in this section of road since pedestrians don t seem to pay attention to where they cross. He supported Option (1). President Cummings concurred with Trustee White s remark that Option (2) would be confusing to motorists. There was a brief discussion about other signage options. Trustee Detlefs suggested adding striping to the crosswalk pavement to help increase safety, as it would clearly indicate that the area is a crosswalk. Mr. Adomshick said striping could be added. In response to a general discussion, he explained that the existing stop signs were installed in their present location in order to increase visibility since the street is curved. President Cummings heard consensus for striping the crosswalk and keeping the signage status quo. The pedestrian yellow signs will remain where they are located. Board direction was given via a formal vote. Director Kenney said an ordinance is not required. Public Works will work in accordance with Board direction. Trustee Britton moved to approve Option (1) Status Quo and add striping to the crosswalk, seconded by Trustee Detlefs. On Roll Call: AYES: Trustees Britton, Cuisinier, Detlefs, Jenny, White NAYS: Trustees Karton ABSENT: None Motion carried Discussion related to Fencing The options under consideration are:

3 (1) Status Quo (2) Decorative Aluminum Parkway Fencing Director Kenney addressed questions about the proposed 190-foot fence under consideration. The fence height and location are adequate to address Board concerns without impacting the library s landscape plan. Previous discussions were held about extending the fence all the way to the crosswalk, but due to various concerns, the option presented tonight is to extend the fence just beyond the Dairy Bar. Trustee Britton acknowledged there are certain liabilities that may be incumbent on installing the proposed fence, but he felt it was worthwhile from a safety standpoint. The proposed fence is a suitable length and reasonably addresses safety concerns. He supports the fence. Mr. Kenney reported there have been no incidents or accidents at the midblock crossing on Harlem in this area. The three cases discussed at the October meeting occurred closer to the street corner where pedestrians crossed against warning signage. The proposed fence won t address any historic issues on the stretch of road under discussion. Feedback from the library and area businesses indicate that pedestrians have been seen crossing against warning signage from time to time. The library will support the Village Board s decision. Trustee Detlefs does not support the fence, but if it is approved, he would like it to be extended at least up to the sidewalk that goes east/west at the north end of the library or even as far as the crosswalk. Trustee Jenny was also not in favor of the fence because it creates an unrealistic sense of safety. However if is approved, he does not object to the proposed length. Trustee Cuisinier changed his position since this matter was last discussed. Although there haven t been any accidents, he sees a propensity for an accident to occur, especially with children visiting the library, the Dairy Bar and the park. He supports the fence as proposed because it creates an added level of safety. Trustee White concurred with Trustee Detlefs. He does not support the fence, but if it is approved, it should extend further than proposed. Trustee Karton suggested that the Board is over regulating the area. She doesn t believe the proposed fence would stop any pedestrians from crossing. To protect children, the fence would need to be 9 or 10 feet high and should extend to the crosswalk. She prefers keeping the area status quo. President Cummings was supportive of the fence. The Board consensus was for Option (1) status quo. 4. REPORT OF THE VILLAGE PRESIDENT: None 5. REPORT OF THE VILLAGE MANAGER: None 6. REPORT OF THE VILLAGE ATTORNEY: None 7. MATTERS PRESENTED BY THE PUBLIC: None 8. PUBLIC HEARING: None 9. CONSENT AGENDA a. Old Business: None b. New Business: None 11. NEW BUSINESS (CONTINUED) b. Consideration of a recommendation to begin the final design of a new Fire Station 6 building on the site of the former Glenview Police Department with a total project budget of $5,442,000 including contingencies. Deputy Village Manager Owen reviewed highlights of the Fire Station 6 relocation process The following background information was provided. For several decades, the Village has considered various initiatives to redevelop and improve downtown Glenview. Included in these initiatives were traffic and pedestrian safety improvements, landscaping and parking improvements, and the construction of a new public library. As the economy started to recover following the recession of 2008, the Village looked for new ways to spur downtown development. The Village s Development Advisor, U.S. Equities, conducted outreach and

4 market studies to verify and conclude that significant economic benefits and market momentum could be achieved through selling Village-owned property, such as the former Dominick s site and the current Fire Station 6 located downtown. Following marketing efforts in 2012, developer Trammel Crow came forward with a proposed purchase and sale agreement for Fire Station 6 and three other parcels currently being assembled on the south side of the 1800 block of Glenview Road. Trammel Crow is proposing to build up to 9,100 SF of retail and 138 apartment units. After reviewing the proposal, the Village agreed to sell Fire Station 6, which will be sold at a fair market value resulting in the need for it to relocate elsewhere. Since a new police station was built at Shermer and Lake, the former police station site next to Village Hall was selected for Fire Station 6. It is in close proximity to the current fire station and will provide similar response times and distance for the call volume. Currently the project is in the concept phase. Board feedback was requested to determine support for renovating the former police station site or new construction, and to review fire station design assumptions with associated budgets. The owner s representative from AT Group and representatives from Williams Architects and the project construction firm, W.B. Olson, were present. Staff researched other fire station projects to provide the Board with a sense of context for what other communities have spent. Building elevation alternatives were reviewed to demonstrate the results of spending more money or less money on the project and what the new Fire Station 6 might look like. Various budget levers were considered in advance of preparing detailed drawings. Three specific budget levers were presented to begin discussions on how staff should proceed. If the Board agrees on a design and budget, a baseline design will be developed. Option A Build new or Option B Renovation A structural engineering analysis confirmed that the renovation of the former Police Station was feasible. Therefore, both new construction and renovation were studied. Summary of Option A The optimal design for a new building is a single story structure with 2½ bays to house the fire truck, ambulance and Battalion Chief s truck. It s important to keep these vehicles indoors, especially during winter conditions, to avoid delays in responding to calls. Because a new station can be designed efficiently, this option is the smallest at approximately 13,000 SF compared to the current 17,000 SF station. The former Police Station would be demolished, the basement area back-filled and storm water detention issues addressed. The budget is slightly over $5.4 million Summary of Option B The former Police Station building would be partially reused and partially demolished. It is a two-story structure (part of the building is at-grade and most of the building is basement level) with an elevator, stairway and other inefficiencies. This option is approximately 14,000 SF and is larger than Option A by 1,000 SF because of the inefficient spaces and elevator/stairs that must be accommodated. The southern portion of the existing building would be retained for administrative use and sleeping quarters. The northern portion of the building (police garage and basement area) would be demolished. The new bays would be located between the administrative component and Village Hall. The site work for this project would be slightly less than what s involved in new construction, but because it is larger, the budget is very close to Option A and slightly higher. Deputy Manager Owen reviewed a chart comparing renovation, building new, other Glenview fire stations and two stations outside the community (Palatine and Huntley). None are headquarter stations. The chart indicated the year the projects were bid, total square footage, cost per SF, site cost per SF and total cost per SF. Conceptual Designs - Deputy Manager Owen reviewed exhibits for elevation and architectural concept design Options A through E for Fire Station 6 and a future Village Hall campus, as outlined in the meeting material. Option A and B would be a $325,000 add over the baseline budget; Options C and D are the baseline budget; the budget for Option E would be a $195,000 deduct from the budget. Options A through D are masonry buildings and Option E is a wood frame building. Potential Budget Savings During staff discussions with the construction manager, consideration was given to having one higher-priced site superintendent for the fire station project and a small Village Hall project ($2 million to $3 million budget). However the Village Hall project may be considered on a larger scale requiring two superintendents, and if this occurs, a less expensive superintendent for the fire station project would provide a $27,000 savings to the baseline budget. Back-filling the former police station basement area is costly. The new fire station does not need a basement. Additional savings between $50,000 and $100,000 may be realized if the fire station and possible Village Hall projects partnered with other projects occurring at the same time, such

5 as the Trammel Crow development. From the standpoint of emergencies, it would be ideal to have the fire station fully functional if the power goes out. It could be fully powered like the current police station if funds were available, but if not, a small generator could be used to power a portion of the building, which would provide a $40,000 budget savings. The overall potential savings on the baseline budget ranges from $117,000 to $167,000. Staff will develop other savings options during the design process. Another $195,000 in savings is possible with architectural design Option E. Next Steps: Tonight s goal was to confirm a budget and baseline design assumptions so that schematic design, design development and construction documents can proceed. There will be at least two bid packages. Building demolition, site work and a utility package is anticipated by this summer. The conditional use and final design review would be in August 2013 and the primary bid for the main construction of Fire Station 6 would be in the October 2013 timeframe. Construction on the building would begin in October or November Mr. Mark Bushhouse, President of Williams Architects, came forward to discuss a long term fire station for Glenview. Williams Architects, Inc. has designed many fire stations. Most fire stations built in Chicago and the suburbs over the last 15 to 20 years used concrete block as the structural support, with a brick face and insulation spread in the middle. The wall systems in those buildings are very durable. Fire stations are very active and get a lot of wear and abuse during their 24/7 use. Buildings of brick and block maintain their quality and usefulness almost without change over very long periods of time. A wood frame construction with either partial or full brick veneer was reviewed. Full brick veneer on a wood frame provides a good weather enclosure but the wood frame is subject to damage from leaks and other problems in the future. Buildings with partial brick veneer can last a long time but they require a lot of maintenance. It could be 30 to 40 years before a brick building needs full tuckpointing, whereas wood frame buildings need painting every 8 years or so and caulking every two years. They tend to look somewhat tired after 20 years. President Cummings understood that the potential savings of building a wood frame building could be depleted over time due to the increased cost of maintenance. Municipalities are subject to the State of Illinois Prevailing Wage Act which requires union wages to be paid. Mr. Bushhouse addressed the impact of the prevailing wage on the Fire Station 6 budget. A union worker could cost as much as $30 more per hour compared to a non-union worker. The Village could potentially spend up to 20% more on a project than a private developer building a similar sized office building because of being required to pay prevailing wage. In response to Trustee Detlefs inquiry, Mr. Bushhouse said he has done a fair number of metal frame structures but many things impact the anticipated savings, such as the cost of steel, new energy code requirements and addressing the needed level of heat and cooling containment and insulation. Adding brick and block to strengthen the walls as well as the cost of finishing the inside as desired results in a very small cost difference from brick, and changing the shape of a metal building to a custom size often exhausts any savings. He described the disadvantages to using a metal structure for the apparatus component of the fire station as well. Trustee Cuisinier supports new brick construction for Fire Station 6. He suggested the possibility of selling Fire Station 13 and using the proceeds to build a better Fire Station 6. Trustees Britton stated that he and Trustee White served on the committee to consider the pros and cons of either renovating the former police station building or build new. He and Trustee White concluded along with the committee that renovation was not a good option for a variety of reasons. He supports new construction and pointed out that the final architecture choice much depends on decisions that will be made in the future related to Village Hall. Trustee Karton supports new construction since the price is slightly less than a renovation project. Designing a building from scratch in the size and functionality desired is the most efficient approach. In response to questions by Trustee Detlefs, Deputy Chief Ensign said the proposed footprint of the new structure wouldn t have the ability to add personnel or equipment and it isn t currently conceptually designed for future expansion. If Fire Station 13 was closed, consideration would be given to running another vehicle out of Fire Station 6 to offset the call volume between the two districts. The fire station is also limited with the antennae configuration.

6 Mr. Bushhouse said it would be helpful if the Board had a sense now of whether Fire Station 6 would need to be expanded to accommodate another vehicle and additional full time personnel. This could be achieved through renovations requiring major changes. The building could also be designed now for future expansion such as changing the 2½ bays to 3, but anything larger would not fit on the site with Village Hall. President Cummings would like the Board to review the cost differential in order to be prepared for any future expansion without concern for whether or not Fire Station 13 is closed. Trustee White understood that if Fire Station 13 closed, one vehicle would be moved to Fire Station 6. He suggested that there are empty bays at other Glenview fire stations to house relocated or new vehicles to accommodate growth or closure of a fire station, but housing the additional firefighters could be a bigger challenge. He doesn t expect that the general increase in call volume would be centered in the downtown area. Deputy Chief Ensign agreed that Fire Stations 8, 13 and 14 have available bay space but reaffirmed that there would need to be expansion to these buildings to accommodate the additional firefighters if fire engines or ambulances were moved or added. Trustee Jenny favored Options A through D but not E as these options are based on the kind of presence the Village may want on Waukegan Road and in the downtown area. Besides the architectural features, he asked if the full height masonry with extended height in those options have a practical consideration regarding the fire station. Mr. Bushhouse said all the plans have the same floor plan and all will function for the fire station. The architectural options are solely for providing choices for the elevation and appearance on Waukegan Road. Trustee Karton said what is planned for Village Hall should be part of the discussion for Fire Station 6. The building should have a campus feel. She would like to see more choices. She supported options C and D. President Cummings confirmed Options C and D at no additional cost are the preferred options at this time with the understanding that if the Board decides to renovate and improve Village Hall, it is likely that an additional cost would be added in order to have building consistency and to create a campus feel as suggested by Trustee Karton. Manager Hileman confirmed that Options C and D represent a more cost-effective renovation of Village Hall with the elements that would mirror a more cost-effective Fire Station 6 appearance and would result in a campus feel. The final design may look different than the concept drawings. General questions were addressed related to the quality and appearance of options A through D. The Board focus tonight was more on budget than design. More options within the baseline budget will be presented to the Board this summer. Options C and D would allow for easier retrofitting of Village Hall through renovation. The ultimate outside appearance of Fire Station 6 would be dependent on decisions made about Village Hall. Option A involves building a new Village Hall building at a significant cost, which is not likely to be approved. Trustee White expects the Fire Station 6 budget to come down $200,000 to $300,000 once the project goes through the true value engineering process and alternative aspects of construction. Manger Hileman indicated that the cost is already contemplated to be lower as indicated earlier in the presentation. President Cummings asked the Board to consider whether Fire Station 6 would need to be reinforced to accommodate a second floor expansion and what that cost differential might be. This would give the Board an understanding of the cost related to future expansion, such as to address increased service needs due to new development and redevelopment in the area. The Board consensus was in favor of new construction and Options C and D with the understanding that there could be added cost if Village Hall is renovated and enhanced to achieve a municipal campus appearance. President Cummings thanked Trustees White and Britton for their work on this matter, which resulted in a thorough presentation of information for the Board. c. Consideration of two Resolutions authorizing the execution of Purchase and Sale Agreements regarding the sale of Parcel 24, the former 40 acre Navy parcel at the Northwest corner of Shermer Road and West Lake Avenue. (i) Willow Creek Community Church for a 12.2 acre parcel. Approved Ordinance No (ii) Edward R. James Partners for a acre parcel. Approved Ordinance No

7 Director Bak reported on staff s recommendation to the Village Board to consider approval of purchase and sale agreements related to the sale of Parcel 24 in The Glen comprised of a 12.2 acre parcel to the Willow Creek Community Church and a acre parcel to Edward R. James Partners. Parcel 24 was purchased for $24 million from the U.S. Navy in The Navy declared the land as surplus for its military housing needs and it was part of the retained acreage by the Navy when the Glenview Naval Air Station closed. After purchasing the land, the Village conducted a concept planning study which involved the participation of the community, major taxing jurisdictions and core jurisdictions within The Glen TIF district. The concept plan indicated that half of Parcel 24 could be used for residential and the other half reserved for open space or civic uses. Due to the economic downturn following the planning process, the Village waited to sell the property until the economy showed signs of recovery to improve the sale price. An RFP was issued in July The principals of the RFP were described. Of the ten bidders, four were selected to submit additional financial information, detailed site plans and elevations, traffic studies, fiscal impact studies, etc. After vetting the data, staff recommends approval of the proposed purchase agreements for Willow Creek Community Church and Edward R. James Partners to develop the property. If approved, the two projects are expected to move through the regulatory review process (Plan Commission, Appearance Commission, back to Village Board) by August 20, 2013, which would allow time for the Village to address its debt obligations related to Parcel 24. Willow Creek Community Church proposes to purchase the southern 12.2 acres at $550,000 per acre to develop a 75,000 SF church and 740 on-site parking spaces. Completion is anticipated by December 15, 2015 or slightly sooner. The Edward R. James Partners proposes to purchase the northern acres at $530,000 per acre to develop 171 residential units comprised of row homes, town homes and cluster single family homes to be completed in This development would be located adjacent to the Pulte Homes project, Regency at The Glen, which is off of Constellation Drive. Valcour, a new street accessing Shermer Road farther north, would provide access to the James and Pulte developments. If the Willow Creek Community Church and Edward R. James Partners projects go forward, the traffic data will be discussed in depth by the Plan Commission. Willow Creek Community Church is exempt from property tax obligations. In lieu thereof the Village negotiated a 20-year service fee period with annual payments in the amount of $180,000 during the life of the TIF. For 13 years following the end of the TIF, $40,000 annually would be paid to the Village. The property would be zoned R-1 with a conditional use because it is a house of worship. The church would directly face West Lake Avenue with access on either side of the building. Elevations are subject to review by the Appearance Commission and Plan Commission. The project would comply with The Glen Design guidelines. The Edward R. James Partners project known as Westgate at The Glen provides each unit with three bedrooms. Many will have first floor master bedrooms, which is often appealing to buyers without school age children. A total of 22 students are anticipated for the residential development. The proposed purchase price and parking availability for each of the three unit types were described. All units would have fee simple ownership in the maintenance free community. The project would comply with requirements of The Glen design guidelines but may likely include some setback variation requests. If the project moves forward, Plan Commission hearings would begin late in June 2013 and the project would be back before the Village Board on August 20, 2013 with a recommendation pursuant to the purchase and sale contract. The units along Shermer Road directly face the street and have nice views with the National Nine Golf Club located across the street. The cluster homes to the north look like single family homes with private open space and court yards. The impact of the Edward R. James Partners project on The Glen TIF was described. In December 2013, the Village is required to refinance or pay off the outstanding $28 million bond currently on the TIF. By selling Parcel 24 earlier than 2017 (indicated in the TIF proforma), a sale is confirmed and the Village avoids the $1 million per year interest due on the debt. The total net positive impact to The Glen TIF is about $14 million. The difference between the land sale proceeds and the debt that would be retired in December 2013 is approximately $7 million. A refinancing plan will be presented for Board consideration in the near future. Director Bak confirmed that if one or both projects are not completed and certain contingencies and covenants are not met, the Village has the right to repurchase the land involved as indicated in the purchase documents for the sale price or fair market value (the lesser of the two). Attorney Patt explained that fair market value is determined by appraisal and whether any improvements were made.

8 Attorney Patt identified a mathematical error in Edward R. James Partners purchase agreement. The actual purchase price is $15,597,900 ($530,000 per acre). Final documents for signature contain the correct numbers. Adjustments will be made after the final survey is completed and the numbers are confirmed. Questions related to annual payments to the Village in lieu of taxes for Willow Creek Church were addressed. Trustee Britton made an omnibus motion to approve 11c-i (12.2 acres for Willow Creek Community Church) and 11c-ii (29.43 acres for Edward R. James Partners), seconded by Trustee Jenny. On Roll Call: AYES: Trustees Britton, Cuisinier, Detlefs, Jenny, White NAYS: Trustees Karton ABSENT: None Motion carried Pastor Steve Gillen of Willow Creek Community Church, North Shore campus, and Mr. Jerry James, President of Edward R. James Partners, came forward to thank the Village Board for consideration and approval of their respective projects and to compliment Village staff on their helpfulness and professionalism. 12. ADJOURNMENT Trustee Britton made a motion to adjourn at 8:24 PM, seconded by Trustee White. The motion carried by a unanimous voice vote. Respectfully submitted, Joanne McDonagh, Recording Secretary
