Review and take action on Final Resolution 2024-22, authorizing the levying of special assessments on Nature Court and a Sanitary Sewer Easement/Lot R. Suennen moved to approve Final Resolution 2024-22, authorizing the levying of special assessments on Nature Court and a Sanitary Sewer Easement/Lot. A. Lemorande seconded. The motion carried 6-1 (No: C. McAllister). ⇒ j. Review, discuss and take action on allowing urban deer bow hunting in the village D. Wiese said state law allows for bow hunting all throughout the state but also allows municipalities to place a restriction on where hunting can occur. The village’s existing ordinance requires hunters to obtain approval to hunt if their hunting area is within 100 yards (300 feet) of an occupied building. P. Evert said the distance restriction is the largest hurdle in allowing bow hunting in the more developed areas. He reiterated that any proposed urban hunt would only allow bows and crossbows, not shotguns or rifles. The board discussed. C. Hughes moved to suspend the rules to hear from the audience. R Suennen seconded. The motion to suspend the rules carried unanimously. The following people spoke: • Matt Lewis, 1515 Pinecrest, said his farmland property is expansive, and he requests more deer tags from the DNR every year because his family are avid and passionate hunters. He said the DNR’s response has been that they should open their property to the public and allow others to hunt their property, and he does not want and should not have to do that. He said the village could help reduce the deer population by asking the DNR to give farmers more deer tags to hunt on their land. He said he does not support an urban hunt because injured deer will run onto other neighboring properties, and allowing hunting on public lands will open the village to liability issues. • Mike Lewis, 1521 Pinecrest, said if the village is going to consider an urban hunt, it should get input from actual deer hunters on how best to do that. He said if the village decides to open public lands and parks to hunting, it should be offered to everyone via a lottery system so everyone has a fair opportunity to participate. • Michael Hale, 1237 Clementine Road, said the village should focus on creating and enforcing regulations to prohibit feeding deer and encourage natural deterrents and fencing, but it should not even consider allowing people to hunt in urban areas where people have kids and pets. • Monica Hoff, 3701 Evergreen Ave., said the village should encourage deer deterrent sprays and potentially purchase it at cost and sell it to residents at a discount, along with providing education about safe ways to feed wildlife. She said the areas that are safe to hunt are already being hunted. The other areas were already deemed not safe per the village’s hunting map, and allowing hunting in parks would create other problems. • John Samorske, 2671 Maple Hills Drive, said the pockets of deer he sees are there because nearby property owners are obviously feeding them. He said allowing hunting will only eliminate a few deer in a few areas if people are allowed to keep feeding them in most of the village. • Bill Norton, who lives on Hillcrest Heights, said he does not feed the deer, so they bed down seasonally and then they move on. He said the village should encourage others not to feed them, so they move on naturally, and he strongly opposes hunting of any kind in urban residential areas. • Tim Gajeski, 2415 S. Idlewild, asked about the potential for nuisance deer hunting tags and said he also wonders how feeding bans would be enforced. • Michele Swaer, 1307 Beechwood Court, said she thinks there are fewer deer than ever. She said she deals with the deer in her neighborhood naturally by fencing her gardens and spraying deterrents. She said there are plenty of non-lethal methods to control the deer population, but hunting is not an option because it is not safe, and it is not pleasant when injured deer die in other people’s yards. • Mark Brault, 918 Channel Tunnel Court, said he totally disagrees with the other comments and believes there is a deer population problem. He said he and other ethical bow hunters have clean kills when they are allowed to hunt from a reasonable distance. He said urban hunting is allowed all over the country with no issues. M. Lasecki moved to return to regular order of business. C. Hughes seconded, and the motion to return to regular order carried unanimously. R. Suennen moved to table action on this agenda item for at least two months to allow staff to gather data and research what other communities are doing. M. Lasecki seconded, and the motion to table carried unanimously. ⇒ a. P. Evert said he met with Ms. Busch and discussed the criminal history missing from her operator license application. He said she was confused about how to fill out the document but admitted the criminal history that Officer Dhuey provided is correct, and he now is recommending approval of her application. M. Lasecki moved to approve the operator license application for Jasmine M. Busch, contingent on the completion and submission of a thorough and accurate revised application. C. McAllister seconded. The motion to approve carried unanimously. f. Review and take action on Final Resolution 2024-22, authorizing the levying of special assessments on the Plat of the Cottages at Hidden Creek 3rd Addition J. Gerrits said the project the project includes installation of improvements for 39 new single-family residential lots within the dedicated right of ways shown on the plat. Only developer properties are specially assessed with the resolution, which defines a payment plan as agreed to by the developer in the developer agreement approved by the Village Board in March. C. Hughes moved to approve Final Resolution 2024-22, authorizing the levying of special assessments on the Plat of Cottages at Hidden Creek 3rd Addition. R. Suennen seconded. The motion carried unanimously. g. PLAN COMMISSION ITEM: Review and take action on a Preliminary Planned Development District for 43 60-foot-wide single-family lots at 1659 Marley St., VH-47 (The Plan Commission voted 4 to 2 to recommend approval.) D. Wiese said the proposed subdivision of Marley Meadows contains (43) 60-foot-wide lots on 60-foot public right of ways. The layout takes into consideration the undeveloped property to the North and allows for future connectivity as depicted on the future land use plan. The wetlands have been delineated and ESAs are accounted for outside the future home sites. An outlot has been provided for stormwater management. C. McAllister reiterated that he would like to see a separate zoning district to allow for a certain number of smaller lots as part of a larger development, so Howard does not lose its character. The board discussed. A. Lemorande moved to approve the Preliminary Planned District for 43 60-foot-wide single-family lots at 1659 Marley St., VH-47. R. Suennen seconded. The motion carried 4-3 (No: M. Lasecki, C. Hughes, C. McAllister). h. PLAN COMMISSION ITEM: Review and take action on the Preliminary Plat of Marley Meadows (The Plan Commission voted 4 to 2 to recommend denial.) D. Wiese said the Plan Commission recommended denial, and staff is recommending the board table the plat because there will be revisions coming. R. Suennen moved to table the Preliminary Plat of Marley Meadows. A. Lemorande seconded. The motion to table carried 6-1 (No: C. McAllister). i. Review and take action on awarding the Meadowbrook Pickleball pavilion and other improvements J. Gerrits said staff prepared plans and specifications for a six-post, 25’ x 38’ rectangular open air steel shelter with tongue and groove roof deck and standing seam steel roof. The pavilion will have electrical outlets in three of the posts and two ceiling lights. Optional gutters and down spouts would be installed locally. The overall plans include pavilion foundation, sidewalks, a small storage building (for electrical, squeegee, leaf blower, etc.), entrance and other site signage, trees, and site furniture (six picnic tables and two garbage cans). Public Works staff plans to grade and prepare the site, install conduit, install the foundation and flat work, erect the structure, install decorative masonry, acquire site furniture, restore the site with lawn grass, install signage and plant trees. Roofing, some flat work and electrical would be installed by a contractor. C. Hughes moved to award the Pickleball pavilion structure to Coverworx in the amount of $48,370 and approve additional related site work with all costs not to exceed $150,000. M. Lasecki seconded. The motion carried unanimously. 12. REPORTS OF VILLAGE OFFICIALS i.

A report regarding the playground was reviewed as well as the financial report.

A motion was made by Dale Feldt, per Committee recommendation, to approve a District-sanctioned, stand-alone Girls Wrestling Program and coach as presented. The motion carried unanimously on a voice vote. Mr. Feldt advised that the second item of discussion related to partnering with GoFan to provide a digital ticketing platform. Director of Co-Curricular Activities and Athletics Rob Scherrer added that there have been some changes since the Committee meeting. He advised that the Blue and White game will unfortunately not be happening this year. In addition, the District will have to sign a one-year contract with GoFan, which is the #1 rated digital ticketing platform. The contract states that the District cannot go with a different vendor during the course of the year, but if the District is not happy with how the new ticketing/concessions platform is working, it can stop using it at any time. The District will be under no obligation to renew the contract. It was also noted that the use of cash will continue to be allowed through at least this year. A motion was made by Dale Feldt, per Committee recommendation, to approve the District partnering with GoFan for digital ticketing and concessions, and keep single game ticket prices and season passes the same, as presented. The motion carried unanimously on a voice vote. Committee Chairperson Feldt summarized the Committee’s discussion regarding the uncashed check from Blenker Building Systems (Blenker) which is over two years old. Interim District Administrator Craig Gerlach shared that WHS Associate Principal Jenifer Erb has reached out to Jason of Blenker and he is supposed to get back to her with the hopes of reestablishing a business relationship and perhaps consider reissuing the check. Ms. Erb added that Blenker did sell a portion of its business but they are still in the construction business. It was suggested that the Board put this recommendation on hold for now. However, Director of Business Services Austin Moore pointed out that the check cannot be cashed at this point anyway so it should be destroyed. An amended motion was made by Dale Feldt, per Committee recommendation, to destroy the uncashed check from Blenker Building Systems dated April 15, 2022, in the amount of $18,923.81, as presented. The motion carried unanimously on a voice vote. Consent Agenda: A motion was made by Dale Feldt and seconded by Betty Manion to approve the items of the consent agenda as presented.

Administration: CEC Annual Report: CEC Administrator Carrie Naparalla and CEC GC President Sandy Robinson presented a summary of the 2023-2024 school year at CEC. They noted that last year was the first year without the federal charter sub grant. Mrs. Robinson shared the accomplishments of the GC which included the completion of a four year renewal contract with the SDW Board of Education, professional development, and strategies for promoting the CEC.

She pointed out that 75.6% of CEC students participate or plan to participate in a school sponsored sport or extracurricular activity.

Ms. Naparalla advised that she and Director of Teaching and Learning Mark Flaten continue to have discussions regarding the students in the Suzuki program being able to continue at the high school level. Ms. Naparalla advised that there were many reasons to celebrate and highlighted the top five specific events that were very impactful. She also noted the three challenges where opportunities for growth are needed. She advised that she follows up with freshmen (former) students inquiring, among other things, how prepared they were for high school and if anything should be done differently. Ms. Naparalla and Mrs. Robinson thanked the School Board, Governance Council, and the many grantors, sponsors, donors, and community partners for their continued support of CEC, as well as the staff and volunteers for all of their hard work. Board President Brooks suggested that since there is a lot of interest in the Community Garden, that a possible fundraiser for CEC could be to raffle off a four-course meal prepared by the students using the produce and other items from the Community Garden.
