ROLL CALL: Mike Carberry, Trustee, District 6 Tim Desmond, Trustee District 1 Ill. OLD BUSINESS: A. CONSIDERATION OF AMENDMENTS TO VILLAGE PROPERTY MAINTENANCE/RENTAL PROPERTY ORDINANCE. Chairman Carberry states that the Property Maintenance/Rental Property Ordinance is ready to be approved and presented at the February 24, 2015 Board of Trustees Meeting. He explains that he has reviewed the fees and believes that they are fair and not punitive. This ordinance will keep the owners of these properties accountable. Pat Connelly states that he hasn't changed any of the fees. He gave the Committee a sample of different municipalities and how they charge and handle rental properties. He points out that the Village fees are a little higher than other municipalities. He also provided the Committee with a 2012 list prepared by realtors with different municipalities and how they inspect rental properties, how often they inspect rental properties and their permit/inspection fees. The ordinance is ready to be presented to the Board of Trustees on February 24, He asks that they look over the ordinance and let him know of any changes. Trustee Olejniczak discusses the Village's Nuisance Abatement Ordinance. He asks Pat Connelly if the Village can have a stronger Nuisance Abatement Ordinance. Pat Connelly states that yes they can make the Nuisance Abatement Ordinance stronger. The idea would be creating a Crime Free Program that would, in accordance with the new property maintenance ordinance, strengthen the ordinance. The Crime Free Program would consist of training landlords, distribution of material and inform them of property codes, etc. He states that the Village should make sure that the landlords know that we do not want to be punitive towards them but instead training them. The goal would be to give the landlords the proper tools to work with their tenants. Trustee Olejniczak suggests that the Village start work on

2 making the Nuisance Abatement Ordinance stronger now. Pat Connelly will start his research on this matter. He gives the example of what other municipalities are doing to strengthen their Nuisance Abatement Ordinance such as a rider to a lease. The rider to the lease can state for example, that if the Police Department is called out to the rental property once, the tenant can be evited by landlord. According to the Village's ordinance, the tenants get three chances before they have to attend a meeting with their landlord. Our goal is to incentivize the landlord and provide them with tools. Trustee Olejniczak suggests that the Village only allows one chance instead of three chances. He adds that years ago the landlords were not notified as to problems occurring at their rental property. Now the landlords receive notification that the Police Department has been called to their rental property. The discussion continues on how to strengthen this ordinance. For the next meeting, Pat Connelly will bring the strongest Nuisance Abatement Ordinance examples from different municipalities to see who has the strongest ordinance and where the Village is compared to other municipalities. Chairman Carberry explains the importance of the policy, staff following through with the policy and the immediate implementation of the policy by staff. In the past, there has been resistance. Larry Deetjen discusses the need to have a report by district with a running total of properties that are licensed, status of violations and fees, etc. Chairman Carberry mentions that there are software programs that can be used by the Property Maintenance Staff. Trustee Olejniczak suggests that the Village use the existing GIS. Trustee Vorderer asks if the Village has enough staff to complete all the inspections for the Village. He doesn't like passing ordinances that we can enforce. Larry Deetjen states that the Village has two full time inspectors and three part-time inspectors. Larry Deetjen adds that Pat Connelly has been working with Jeanne Galzin on the specifications for contracting inspections out as a supplement to staff. Chairman Carberry states that it should be managed by the Village staff. IV. NEPOTISM ORDINANCE The Nepotism Ordinance is tabled for the next meeting. Pat Connelly will bring an example of a nepotism ordinance to the next meeting. V. FOLLOW UP ON TERM LIMITS LEGISLATION AND SUPPORT LETTER FOR GOVERNOR RAUNER Larry Deetjen makes a motion to approve the Term Limits Ordinance with amendments and submit it to the full board to seek their approval at the February 24, 2015 Board of Trustees Meeting. Chairman Carberry moved. Alex Olejniczak seconded. ROLL CALL: Mike Carberry, Trustee, District 6 - Yes Tim Desmond, Trustee, District 1 - Yes - Yes IV. ADJOURNMENT

3 VILLAGE OF OAK LAWN LEGISLATIVE, LICENSES, AND ETHICS COMMITTEE MEETING MINUTES # Tuesday, April 28, 2015 at 7:00 p.m. at Village Hall 2nd Floor, Auditorium I. ROLL CALL: Meeting starts at 7:00 p.m. Mike Carberry, Trustee, District 6 Tim Desmond, Trustee, District 1 Larry Deetjen, Village Manager Paul O'Grady, Village Attorney Carmie O'Leary, Staff II. APPROVAL OF MEETING MINUTES: Approval of the meeting minutes for April 28, Alex Olejniczak moved. Tim Desmond seconded. ROLL CALL: Mike Carberry, Trustee, District 6 Tim Desmond, Trustee District 1 Ill. OLD BUSINESS: A. AUTOMATED LOGGING LOCKBOXES FOR REALTORS ORDINANCE The Mayor asks Chairman Carberry for the floor. The Mayor states that she has spoken to Larry Deetjen about the recent incident that has occurred on Keeler. It is something that would be nice to do to require a lockbox that logs in when the person checks in and when the person checks out. The Mayor states that it is a win for everyone. This will prevent squatters in vacant homes and give a peace of mind to the homeowners. She stated that the Village of Oak Lawn is very fortunate not to have a lot of incidents like this occur throughout the Village. The logging lockbox is more expensive compared to the regular lockbox. The logging lockbox cost approximately $30 compared to the regular lockboxes which are approximately $15. She states that the Village can require the logging lockbox on only the vacant properties which would keep costs down. Trustee Desmond asks how the Village would enforce this ordinance. Paul O'Grady states that the ordinance needs to pass then the Property Maintenance Department would enforce the ordinance. He states that a starting point could be the list of vacant homes. This list can be located on the website. We have a link to the Cook County Building and Zoning website which is updated daily. Once the ordinance is passed, send a letter to the banks with the ordinance and give them 30 to 60 days to comply. Paul O'Grady will circulate the draft of the ordinance to the committee. Jeanne Galzin is supportive of the ordinance. This ordinance will be for vacant houses only. At the time a home goes into preliminary foreclosure, the bank should be made aware of this ordinance well before the full foreclosure begins. The committee discusses the foreclosure process. B. PROHIBITING ELECTED OFFICIALS FROM SOLICITING MONEY FROM VILLAGE EMPLOYEES ORDINANCE. The Mayor states that she requested this item be placed on the agenda because of the multiple instances that have occurred within the last year where employees have been solicited by elected officials for money while at work. The employees feel uncomfortable about this type of harassment which should not go on at Village Hall. At the present time, we do not have anything

4 that will prevent people from soliciting campaign contributions from employees. Employees feel subordinate to elected officials and this puts them in an uncomfortable position. If someone wants to send solicitations to the employees homes or somewhere off of the Village property there is no problem. We want to remove this type of stress from our employees. Paul O'Grady states that there are some statutes on the state law books regarding soliciting government employees. He will draft an ordinance. C. ORDINANCE REGARDING BUILDING PERMITS FOR NEW SINGLE FAMILY HOME CONSTRUCTION. Trustee Tim Desmond asks that this be put on the agenda. He states that the Village of Oak Lawn is generating interest again when it comes to building new homes. He states that they were considering waiving the demo fee but it is only $30. A building permit in the Village of Oak Lawn is approximately $7,000 to $8,000. So to get building started again in Oak Lawn and have the builders decide on Oak Lawn instead of Tinley Park or Lemont we would like to postpone the building fees. We are not waiving the building fees but instead we would postpone the building fees. The builder will have to pay the building fees before they pick up the occupancy permit. It will be a contract with the Village stating that we are willing to postpone payment of the building permits and that the builders will pay the building permits when they pick up their occupancy permits. They have talked about a bond and they would post the bond or would we put a lien on the property. These are the things we will need to consider. If we defer the building permits and something happens to the builder (for example, if the property is sold) we will have to place a lien on the property to ensure that we retrieve the building fees. That is why we need a contract which will be enforceable. They can always pay the building permits up front if they choose to do so. The committee gives direction to the Village Attorneys to write an ordinance which will be on the next agenda. Before the committee finishes with the old business, Trustee Olejniczak states that Pat Connelly has been working on a Crime Free Zone - Nuisance Abatement Ordinance. He would like it to be on the agenda for the next meeting. The committee wants to strengthen the ordinance and to add a crime free zone to the ordinance. If a resident calls the police regarding a nuisance matter three times, we want the nuisance abatement to kick in. The committee will also place the nepotism ordinance on the agenda for the next meeting. Chairman Carberry asks Jeanne Galzin if there are any other concerns she has with regards to the Property Maintenance Department. Jeanne Galzin states that they are working on the software for their ticketing program which is not sufficient to support the program in place. There are also some computer issues that will not allow them to coordinate some information that they need. Everything is on a different software program. They are working with some vendors to make this more efficient for their department. Larry Deetjen states that they will be setting up a demo and that they will let him know the outcome. The committee schedules the next meeting for Thursday, May 7, 2015 at 5:00 p.m. at Village Hall in the 2nd floor conference room. IV. ADJOURNMENT

5 VILLAGE OF OAK LAWN LEGISLATIVE, LICENSES AND ETHICS COMMITTEE MEETING MINUTES # Tuesday, May 7, 2015 at 5:00 p.m. at Village Hall 2"d Floor, Auditorium I. ROLL CALL: Meeting starts at 5:15 p.m. Mike Carberry, Trustee, District 6 Tim Desmond, Trustee, District 1 -Absent Larry Deetjen, Village Manager Pat Connelly, Village Attorney Bud Stalker, Trustee Elect Dan Omiecinski, Human Resources Director Carmie O'Leary, Staff II. APPROVAL OF MEETING MINUTES: Approval of the meeting minutes for April 28, Chairman Mike Carberry moved. Alex Olejniczak seconded. Ill. OLD BUSINESS: A ORDINANCE REGARDING BUILDING PERMITS FOR NEW SINGLE FAMILY HOME CONSTRUCTION. Motion to move the ordinance regarding bu ilding permits for the new single family home construction to the Board of Trustees. Chairman Carberry moved. Trustee Alex Olejniczak seconded. B. CRIME FREE ZONE - NUISANCE ORDINANCE. Chairman Mike Carberry discusses the automated lockboxes, uninhabitable and water shut off in vaca~t homes throughout the Village. Pat Connelly states that he has talked to staff and trustees regarding this matter. The vacant property problem is not just an Oak Lawn problem, it is a Chicagoland problem. Every municipality deals with this issue. The idea is that when we put in the Vacant Property Ordinance with Cook County the main benefit was thought to be that we need a registry of all vacant properties. That registry is the key to the success of the program. This will enable the Village to identify these properties early and get the properties registered wh ich will hold the mortgagee or the bank to be held accountable. As far as the ordinance, we will add in the information regarding the lockboxes to our existing ordinance. Pat Connelly believes he can have this ordinance ready by the May 26, 2015 Board of Trustees Meeting. Pat Connelly states that this is a very specific lockbox. He has not found a lot of these lockboxes. He is still searching for the specifications for the lockbox. He knows that the lockbox needs to be automated and that it keeps track of people coming and going in and out of the property. Chairman Carberry states that the Village has had some problems this year with people entering

6 the vacant properties. Trustee Olejniczak gives examples of squatters and how the problem was handled by the Village. Trustee Olejniczak explains that what they have done with the ordinance enables the Village to move quickly to stop the squatting in vacant properties. It was the ordinance with Cook County which enabled the Village to identify the property as being vacant which in turn allowed us to move quickly to remove the squatters. The county also handles the evictions. Pat Connelly discusses how squatters get water into the vacant property. He states that the ordinance is now even stronger with strengthening the civil penalty for anyone that enters a vacant property; anyone tampering with the buffalo box after the water has been turned off by the Village and strengthens the Village's application procedure for getting water turned on in a vacant home. Now the Village will require the landlord's information. The landlord will have to sign off on turning the water on and off. The benefit of this information is twofold. First, identify who is turning on the water in the home and the use of illegal taps on the property. Second, to make sure we are receiving all the rental property license registrations. Some people are evading the Village on the landlord license. The ordinance will be ready for the full board on Tuesday, May 26, The committee reviews the Village of Oak Lawn Rental Property Nuisance Regulations code with the suggested changes. Trustee Olejniczak states that he approves the way the nuisance ordinance has been strengthened. Pat Connelly states that the Village of Oak Lawn was on the cutting edge when it first passed this ordinance in In his opinion, it is a little confusing. It is not as in sync as it could be. He took a look at several different municipalities and he has found what he believes is easier to understand how we are going to define nuisances for rental properties. Please keep in mind that every municipality in Illinois whether home rule or not has the authority to define what is nuisance and how they are going to deal with it. The key is that the Village needs a good definition of nuisance. Pat Connelly explains the additions to the ordinance. The crime portion is still intact and rental property nuisance does not change. He states that what we didn't have before in the ordinance violations. This is what we are defining as a nuisance: commission of Village Ordinance violations which include weeds, garbage, junk in the yard, etc. These are things that Jeanne Galzin and her staff cite people for - any property maintenance ordinance violations the Village cites residents for is essentially. They have included 4 violations in a 6 month period and/or 6 violations in a 12 month period. Trustee Olejniczak states that he thinks that is too liberal. He believes it should be 3 violations in a 3 month period and 6 violations in a 12 month period Pat Connelly explains that these timeframes are not in a calendar year. Pat Connelly states that what he doesn't like in the old ordinance is the amount of police calls at a rental property. He reads from the ordinance which says "or a unreasonably high number of calls for police service including, but not limited to, calls that may fall within the descriptions listed above that when compared to other properties in the Village of similar type, reasonably indicate that the activity at this property is out of character for the area and is impacting." He prefers placing an amount of police service calls just like the above mentioned property maintenance violations. Trustee Olejniczak states that he would like it to be 3 calls for police service. For example, if the tenant is the victim of a crime and calls the police department this will not be counted. Pat Connelly adds that if the committee agrees to these items, he can have this ready for the May 26, 2015 Board of Trustee Meeting. Trustee Olejniczak addresses the matter of if a certain number of people are listed on the lease and then a relative is visiting the tenant for approximately 3 months and then ends up being a permanent resident of the rental unit. He suggests that we take a look at this situation next. Larry Deetjen states that it should be made clear that that constitutes as a violation. The committee discusses the definition of a reasonable period of time if a tenant has a visitor that stays in the rental property. Pat Connelly will start working on this matter. Part of the Rental Property License Registration is who is living on the property. Jack Gallagher asks Pat Connelly to confirm that we will have the owner of the property sign off on the water form that they are authorizing the tenant to be there. Pat Connelly states that is correct. Jack Gallagher wants to know if we will have the owner or the landlord sign off to

7 authorize a tenant to be allowed on the property. Pat Connelly states that he is correct. Jack Gallagher wants to know how hard it will be to find the correct person responsible for the property if the property owner is a bank. Pat Connelly explains that if a bank has a property that is being rented to a tenant, there should be a property manager we can contact. Jack Gallagher is just making sure that we consider all different situations that we can face if a bank is the owner of a rental property. Pat Connelly states that he believes that a bank owned property will not be rented. Banks do not usually rent properties. Trustee Olejniczak explains the difference between vacant properties and rental properties. Vacant properties go through the foreclosure process. Next, Cook County is called in to identify the property as vacant which is enacted from the ordinance. If the property is identified as vacant, the Village will automatically turn the water off. He suggests that going forward the Village should have an ordinance that states that if a property is vacant, the property owner needs to authorize the shut off the water unless otherwise instructed by the property owner which in turn they will have to sign a form. Pat Connelly states that there are statutes that need to be followed with regards to turning off the water. Trustee Olejniczak states that this is something different. He explains that the property has already been deemed vacant. He asks Pat Connelly to look into this matter. He reiterates that he would like to see an ordinance that states if a property is deemed vacant that our ordinance will state the water needs to be shut off. Pat Connelly will look at the statutes. He also states that we will have to find out when the property is in fact foreclosed. Trustee Olejniczak asks what will the penalty would be if someone tampers with the water. Pat Connelly states that we can strengthen our civil penalties. There will be a large dollar amount attached to this penalty. He states that there is a felony crime stealing of government property. The water is the property of the Village. The State's Attorney would have to be the one to charge the individual of that crime. Before going to the next item, Chairman Carberry asks that for the next meeting that recreational vehicles and no parking of recreational vehicles in the street and driveways be placed on the agenda. Larry Deetjen explains the recent problems the Village has been having with residents parking their recreational vehicles on the parkways and streets. The ordinance states that the recreational vehicles have to be parked on a solid surface. Chairman Carberry states that he would like the ordinance to state no recreational vehicles allowed. Trustee Olejniczak states that it would be satisfactory if the owners have the proper storage in the back of the property. Pat Connelly will look into this matter. Larry Deetjern states that this matter has come up before with the prior board and some residents feel that this is an infringement of their property rights. Pat Connelly adds that time allowed for the recreational vehicle will be allowed on the property. The committee discusses what they are looking for in a new software program for the Property Maintenance Department. The new software will be a data base and a tracking system. The committee also discusses the possibility of assigning specific geographical areas for each of the inspectors. These specific geographical areas would mirror the districts of the Village. Jack Gallagher states that they are close to making a recommendation on the software. They are just waiting for the vendor to make some minor adjustments. This will be in place by the fall. Jack Gallagher would like to see the inspectors get a hand held device to input the information. He states that he can arrange for a presentation of this software for the committee. C. NEPOTISM ORDINANCE. Pat Connelly distributes a handout regarding the Nepotism Ordinance for the committee to review. It will be discussed at the next meeting. IV. ADJOURNMENT Chairman Carberry moved. Trustee Alex Olejniczak seconded.

10 VILLAGE OF OAK LAWN LEGISLATIVE, LICENSES AND ETHICS COMMITTEE MEETING MINUTES # Thursday, June 4, 2015 at 6:15 p.m. at Village Hall 2"d 1=1oor, Auditorium I. ROLL CALL: Meeting starts at 6:40 p.m. Mike Carberry, Trustee, District 6 Tim Desmond, Trustee, District 1 - Absent Larry Deetjen, Village Manager Pat Connelly, Village Attorney Bud Stalker, Trustee Carmie O'Leary, Administrative Secretary II. APPROVAL OF MEETING MINUTES FOR MAY 26, 2015: Approval of the meeting minutes for May 26, Alex Olejniczak moved. Mike Carberry seconded. Ill. OLD BUSINESS: A AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CERTAIN SECTIONS OF THE OAK LAWN VILLAGE CODE PERTAINING TO PARKING OF RECREATIONAL VEHICLES. The committee discusses the information that Pat Connelly, Village Attorney sent them regarding this matter. Pat Connelly discusses the various options that he has found in his research from different municipalities. He explains that some municipalities include this matter in their zoning codes. Pat Connelly gives the committee the draft ordinance for them to review. The ordinance that the committee is reviewing is not in the zoning code. If the committee decides that they would like to go in the direction of the zoning code, it would have to go through the Planning & Development Committee with the potential of variances, etc. Any time you would amend a text from the zoning code, there would have to be a public hearing through the Planning & Development Committee which they would vet and make a recommendation to the Board of Trustees. A change to our standing and stopping ordinance does not require the Planning & Development Committee. This committee could act on its own. Pat Connelly explains he has limited it to single family residences. Recreational Vehicles are completely out of the front yards. Pat Connelly gathered measurements for the size of a recreational vehicle. Recreational vehicles that are greater than: overall width of 8 ft. or overall length of 20 ft. including the hitch or overall height of 10 ft. has to be stored in a garage or stored in another type of enclosed structure. Anything smaller than that you can have it outside the garage. The recreational vehicle that is smaller than the above mentioned measurements has to be stored behind the property line and there has to be some type of screen around the recreational vehicle. Smaller recreational vehicles can be stored on your side lot or your back lot in an enclosed structure with adequate screening. There is an exception of 72 hours if you are coming home or going on vacation.

11 Alex Olejniczak states that he has talked to some of the residents in his district who have a recreational vehicle stored on their property. You can't see the RV. He believes the size of the RV is between 20 ft. to 23 ft. from front to back and it was another 10 ft. high. None of his neighbors could see the RV. It was parked behind his garage. Alex Olejniczak states that he thinks it is a good idea the RVs and boats are kept out of the front of houses. He doesn't know what the right height and length should be put in the ordinance. Pat Connelly states that he believes that RVs that are in the low 20 ft. range is average. Pat Connelly asks the committee if they would like him to increase the size or decrease the size of the RVs. Mike Carberry asks Alex Olejniczak if he is okay with a 23 ft. RV in the back of a house. Alex Olejniczak states that some properties in other parts of the Village are larger and some are smaller. The resident he spoke to has a larger area in back of their garage. Alex Olejniczak states that it is good idea to get the RVs out of the front yards and/or on the streets to the back of the property. He states that it is absolutely perfect and a great start. Bud Stalker states in his opinion that if you can't see it, it shouldn't be a problem. He states that there is nothing about a pad in the ordinance. He asks the committee if that is something they would want to include in the ordinance. He asks the committee how will the police enforce this ordinance in 72 hours. Mike Carberry states that the police will use reasonable sense about enforcing this ordinance. He clarifies that it is the residents who are storing their large RVs in their driveways and in their front yards that are the eye soars in the community. He states that the Village will not be going after residents that have their RVs parked on their property an extra 8 hours past the 72 hours that is allotted. Bud Stalker states that he wants to make it easy on the police and he wants to make sure that residents do not argue with the police regarding the 72 hour limit. He states that he would like that portion of the ordinance strengthen. Mike Carberry states that Bud Stalker is bringing up some important questions regarding this matter. He wished that Tim Desmond was in attendance for this meeting so he too can be involved in this discussion. Mike Carberry states that he would like to hold off on this item until Tim Desmond can join the discussion regarding parking recreational vehicles in the Village. Alex Olejniczak asks if this item is on the Board of Trustees Meeting Agenda. Pat Connelly states that you can simply make a motion to postpone the discussion of parking recreational vehicles in the Village. Mike Carberry states we will move it to the July 2015 meeting. Larry Deetjen also states that the committee can move this item to the July 2015 Board of Trustees Meeting. Mike Carberry reiterates that there are a couple of questions that still need to be addressed because they are real concerns of the committee. Pat Connelly states that Chief Murray also has review the ordinance regarding parking recreational vehicles in the Village. Chief Murray also has some questions concerning this matter. Bud Stalker states that he supports the portion regarding the 72 hours. He just wants to make it easier on the police. Mike Carberry states that the committee will definitely hold off on the parking recreational vehicles in the Village. Chairman Carberry motions to postpone the ordinance amending certain sections of the Oak Lawn Village Code pertaining to parking of recreational vehicles. Alex Olejniczak moved. Mike Carberry seconded.

12 B. STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS CONTRACT FOR ADMINISTRATIVE BUILDING CODE, MUNICIPAL ORDINANCE VIOLATIONS ENFORCEMENT, AND MUNICIPAL OFFENSE SYSTEM WEB BASED SOLUTIONS. C. DISCUSSION OF ADDITIONS AND/OR CHANGES WITH THE PROPERTY MAINTENANCE SOFTWARE AND TIMELINE FOR IMPLEMENT. Pat Connelly states that he has sent back some comments to MSI which he has included in the committee packets. Pat Connelly states that this will be ready to go for the Board of Trustees meeting on Tuesday, June 9, 2015 IV. NEW BUSINESS: A VEHICLE STICKER- INCREASE OF FINES. The Mayor requested this item be placed on the agenda. Pat Connelly researched and did some comparison as to where we are at as to our vehicle stickers - how much we charge for our vehicle stickers, what happens if you don't buy it on time and what happens when you get caught on the street - what is the violation. Please see the attached chart. The City of Chicago has the toughest fines. Bud Stalker states that he spoke to someone this evening and they said that the sticker is not being enforced. Alex Olejniczak has heard the same complaint. Larry Deetjen states that per Chief Murray there are a large number of people not purchasing the vehicle sticker and that is revenue lost. Alex Olejniczak states that the police cannot ticket someone for not having a vehicle sticker on their driveway. He also suggested coming up with a better way to do this for IV. ADJOURNMENT: Chairman Mike Carberry motions to adjourn. Tim Desmond moved. Alex Olejniczak seconded.
