Discussion Items: Citizens Code Academy • Code Enforcement Officers: A day I the Life presentation by Lead Code Enforcement Officer Kalish and

Assistant to the Director Bialas. o Power Point presented regarding the typical day of a Village Code Enforcement Officer. Discussion

included the typical daily routine for Code Enforcement Officers (CEO) including preparing for assignments, performance of inspections and following up on investigations. The duties of a CEO were reviewed. The types of cases encountered by CEO's since the start of the year were also discussed.

Topic of Discussion - Miscellaneous Discussion by Committee • Committee Member Siddiqi commented about the use of horns by busses at the bus depot in the

unincorporated area off Poss Road in the morning. Chairman Schmidt suggested that the reason was the vehicle safety inspection required of drivers before they pick up children for the day. Committee Member Hilborn indicated the safety tests were likely a requirement of regulations related to busses. This bus depot has been in that location from many years. CEO Steve Kalish suggested the disturbing use of horns in the morning might be a matter for the Sheriffs Department who have jurisdiction in that area.

• Committee Member Gresak commented about the on-going problem with debris from the garbage and recycling bins at the apartments on Century Point Lane. CEO Kalish advised of the on-going efforts to deal with the owners and tenants of the apartments. Enforcement has been taken in the past.
