We are residents of the village of Carol 354 00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:16,159 Stream since the last 22 years. Our normal monthly water bill for the last 355 00:31:12,799 --> 00:31:21,679 few years is under $50, but our August 2026 bill was $641.30. 356 00:31:20,159 --> 00:31:25,679 This represents an extraordinary increase that was caused by a mechanical 357 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:30,000 failure of one of the toilet valves in our basement as identified by the 358 00:31:27,679 --> 00:31:33,840 village mechanical staff. The valve continued to leak for a few days and the 359 00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:39,120 water went directly into the drainage system. Our home is occupied by only two 360 00:31:36,559 --> 00:31:42,480 people, my wife and me. I am retired and we do not have the kind of water usage 361 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:46,799 that would reasonably explain such an extreme bill. Since the leaking toilet 362 00:31:44,799 --> 00:31:51,039 is in the basement, we do not frequently go down there to check whether water is 363 00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:54,799 running. Unfortunately, we were unaware of the problem until village called us 364 00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:58,640 to check on us and we received the unusually high bill. 365 00:31:57,120 --> 00:32:01,600 I've already spoken with the water department and the finance department of 366 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:05,360 the village of Carol Stream regarding this matter. I understand from those 367 00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:09,760 conversations that the village purchases its water and therefore it must charge 368 00:32:07,679 --> 00:32:13,679 residents for the water consumed. I certainly understand and respect that 369 00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:16,559 responsibility. However, I would like to respectfully request that the village 370 00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:21,039 board consider the exceptional circumstances of our situation. The 371 00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:24,880 water was unintentionally lost through a mechanical failure, went directly into 372 00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:29,760 the drainage system, and was not used for any household purpose. In cases of 373 00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:33,440 such extreme unintentional usage, I believe it would be fair to consider a 374 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:37,840 policy of one-time relief for the senior residents, perhaps through a nominal 375 00:32:35,519 --> 00:32:41,519 penalty or administrative fee rather than requiring the resident to bear the 376 00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:45,600 full cost of the excess water. This would recognize the vill's actual water 377 00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:49,519 costs while also providing compassionate consideration to residents who 378 00:32:47,679 --> 00:32:53,679 experience an unforeseen mechanical failure. We have since identified and 379 00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:56,960 corrected the issue and we will be more vigilant about checking the basement 380 00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:59,919 plumbing in the future. In light of these circumstances, I would be very 381 00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:04,720 grateful if the village board could review our $641.30 382 00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:09,200 August water bill and consider a one-time adjustment or other relief for 383 00:33:06,559 --> 00:33:12,720 the excess water charges. Thank you for your time, understanding, 384 00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:17,760 and consideration. Please let me know if you need any additional information. 385 00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:20,880 Sincerely, He and Lena Sha. >> Thank you. That's it.

Um, went 539 00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:41,359 to Citizens Police Academy and definitely enjoyed um, you know, her 540 00:42:38,800 --> 00:42:44,800 leadership and and what she's did for for the community. Um, it was nine weeks 541 00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:49,839 of hanging out with her for Citizens Police Academy.

I thought the car show, 548 00:43:17,359 --> 00:43:24,240 I thought the concerts went well, and I think that we all should be as a 549 00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:28,720 community and as a town trying to do as much as we can in the town center to 550 00:43:26,319 --> 00:43:34,000 bring the community and people together.

It kind of came as a 565 00:44:30,079 --> 00:44:36,319 surprise to me because she seems way too young, but I guess we we'll allow it. 566 00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:42,880 And I did start texting her as soon as we got the uh announcement to tell her I 567 00:44:38,960 --> 00:44:49,280 was going to vote it down. Um but um I also did Citizens Police Academy. Um not 568 00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:54,880 as an elected official, but I became a um um a candidate. God, I couldn't think 569 00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:59,440 of the word. I became a candidate during it. But um I attended that and that was 570 00:44:57,599 --> 00:45:02,880 her very first class and I remember being really surprised on the last day 571 00:45:01,040 --> 00:45:07,119 when she said that it was her first time teaching it because she seemed like a 572 00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:10,800 pro and had been doing it for a long time and I think that's the case with 573 00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:14,480 everything she's done for the village. I would also like to congratulate 574 00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:20,640 everybody on their anniversaries. Amanda Larson, Greg Walker, Brian Clever, and 575 00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:25,200 Mark Tela.

So, congratulations. Um on a 591 00:46:40,960 --> 00:46:50,240 serious note, um September is suicide prevention awareness month. Um, and 592 00:46:46,800 --> 00:46:55,680 according to the CDC, it is the top nine leader causes of death in the United 593 00:46:52,720 --> 00:47:04,400 States for indu individuals ages 10 to 64 and second among ages 10 to 14 and 25 594 00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:10,800 to 39. Um, being a police officer, I've responded to suicides. I've seen what it 595 00:47:08,079 --> 00:47:18,400 does to families, friends, and loved ones. And just keep your eyes open. And 596 00:47:14,960 --> 00:47:22,800 if someone needs help, get them help. Um whether they like it or not, because 597 00:47:20,079 --> 00:47:28,240 they're not in the right mindset. And it's just it it's it's horrible. Um so 598 00:47:26,640 --> 00:47:32,800 let's just be aware of each other and take care of each other um and care 599 00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:37,760 about each other and let's keep our military since my son is now in boot 600 00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:43,040 camp, our basic training of the Air Force and um first responders in our 601 00:47:41,520 --> 00:47:46,480 thoughts and prayers.

Um, I also want to 603 00:47:48,720 --> 00:47:56,000 congratulate everybody. I I've worked alongside every person that was 604 00:47:53,920 --> 00:48:01,119 recognized tonight. I think that it speaks volumes for Carol and her 605 00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:06,800 retirement that we packed the room with a lot of our um police volunteers. Um 606 00:48:04,960 --> 00:48:10,800 whether they were wearing a red shirt, a green shirt, or an orange shirt, that's 607 00:48:09,040 --> 00:48:15,359 just a fraction of the people that could actually make it tonight. I know 608 00:48:12,160 --> 00:48:18,960 everybody, all 120 volunteers, if they could have been here tonight, would have 609 00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:24,079 been here tonight. So, congratulations to Carol. You will be very, very missed. 610 00:48:21,680 --> 00:48:30,079 Um, congratulations to Amanda, Brian, and Greg. I can't say anything better 611 00:48:26,960 --> 00:48:35,440 than what Trusty Aik said. Um, they all know how much I love and respect them. 612 00:48:32,880 --> 00:48:41,760 Um, I promised Amanda that I would keep a story until she retires why she's my 613 00:48:38,720 --> 00:48:45,599 um she's my hero and a guardian angel to our family. So, I will save that 614 00:48:43,200 --> 00:48:50,559 apparently for in nine months. I will not be voting to approve that um that 615 00:48:48,640 --> 00:48:57,920 retirement chief, just so you're just so you're aware.

Bizarre things seem 620 00:49:12,960 --> 00:49:20,319 to happen when Bill's out of town. So, because I think he's got another trip 621 00:49:17,040 --> 00:49:24,480 coming up that it stays, you know, even ke while he's gone, but you've handled 622 00:49:22,480 --> 00:49:27,680 everything that's been every curveball, bizarre curveball that gets thrown at 623 00:49:26,240 --> 00:49:31,280 you, you've handled very well. So, congratulations. 624 00:49:29,359 --> 00:49:37,839 Um, [clears throat] on a personal and sad note, um, 625 00:49:34,800 --> 00:49:41,760 10 days ago or so, 12 days ago or so, um, the park district lost one of their 626 00:49:39,599 --> 00:49:49,040 commissioners.

You You got to wait longer. 641 00:50:58,960 --> 00:51:06,720 Um, we love our our staff and and we we like 642 00:51:04,079 --> 00:51:13,839 reading these for how long everybody's been on. So, it it hurts a little bit 643 00:51:09,119 --> 00:51:18,000 when people leave. Um, Carol, more than anything, thank you for what you've done 644 00:51:15,680 --> 00:51:23,280 for the village, for the kids, um, for for the different uh positions you held. 645 00:51:20,880 --> 00:51:26,880 And every time we read these, especially with the police department with how it's 646 00:51:24,800 --> 00:51:32,559 set up, I I love how everybody had they they go 647 00:51:29,119 --> 00:51:39,280 through all the different spots to to have whether it be youth or whether it 648 00:51:34,319 --> 00:51:44,079 be detective that we have well-rounded professional police officers. And I 649 00:51:40,960 --> 00:51:49,599 think that has a lot to do with it. Um but uh thank you, Carol. Thank you for 650 00:51:47,200 --> 00:51:54,079 everything you've done. um you will be missed. But again, because of how our 651 00:51:52,559 --> 00:51:59,200 department works, I know they'll find somebody to fill that spot and hopefully 652 00:51:56,319 --> 00:52:04,800 take what you've built and uh and build upon that even. So, congratulations and 653 00:52:02,480 --> 00:52:08,880 retirement. We'll see what comes next. Um our bags for life foundation summer 654 00:52:07,040 --> 00:52:12,720 sendoff that was brought to you by Village Tavern. Uh that's what uh Trusty 655 00:52:11,040 --> 00:52:15,680 Guthrie was speaking of our concert a few weeks ago. 656 00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:19,599 um Tavern supplied everything but three 657 00:52:17,520 --> 00:52:24,400 raffle prizes. So, uh they did pretty much everything uh for us. We raised a 658 00:52:22,240 --> 00:52:29,200 little over $6,000 and considering this was our first year trying this and uh we 659 00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:32,880 didn't have a great turnout because the advertising's got to get better. We got 660 00:52:30,640 --> 00:52:37,119 to do a lot of things, but uh I still think of it as a very positive and 661 00:52:34,800 --> 00:52:41,520 successful event. So, we're excited about that. Um Tim Powers. Yeah, I've 662 00:52:39,760 --> 00:52:46,480 known him for just about since he's been on and um it was amazing that he stuck 663 00:52:44,400 --> 00:52:52,079 it out even when he was sick. He still was part of that park board. Um because 664 00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:57,440 of as trusty Fousone said his how much he cared about the park district and the 665 00:52:53,599 --> 00:53:02,079 village. So P's family, I'm very sorry and and Tim rest in peace. 666 00:53:00,319 --> 00:53:07,599 And last but not least, I would be remiss not to wish my wife. This past 667 00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:12,640 Sunday was our 35th, I'm sorry, 34th wedding anniversary. So, uh, I'm lucky 668 00:53:10,480 --> 00:53:16,559 enough to say she's been my wife. That was the best birthday present I've ever 669 00:53:14,559 --> 00:53:19,800 received. So, with that, that's the end of my report. 670 00:53:23,839 --> 00:53:31,800 » So, [clears throat] Ellison, 671 00:53:28,480 --> 00:53:31,800 you're here. 672 00:53:32,000 --> 00:53:39,119 » Whoops. Oh, okay. Good thing Mary just pointed to your name and I'm thinking 673 00:53:37,119 --> 00:53:43,359 she's not here, but >> but you are here. 674 00:53:41,040 --> 00:53:47,040 » Our new library director. >> I'm so sorry.

I should have double checked. Um yes. Hi. Sorry. I'm Allison. 677 00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:58,559 I am the new director over at the library. I'm so excited to be here. Um 678 00:53:56,240 --> 00:54:02,079 I've been over there for about uh a little bit under two months now. Um, and 679 00:54:00,559 --> 00:54:07,520 I've just really been enjoying getting to know the library and getting to um, 680 00:54:05,520 --> 00:54:11,760 know the community. I actually grew up next door in Bartlett. Um, but I so I 681 00:54:10,400 --> 00:54:15,119 spent a little bit of time in Carol Stream in my youth, but uh, so coming 682 00:54:13,599 --> 00:54:19,440 back here is a little nostalgic, but then also has just been really um, 683 00:54:17,280 --> 00:54:24,079 amazing to learn so much more about what's like right next door to me. Um, 684 00:54:22,319 --> 00:54:28,319 and we have a very beautiful library with a really wonderful and dedicated 685 00:54:25,920 --> 00:54:32,640 staff.

Um, and so you just have a gem of a 687 00:54:34,720 --> 00:54:40,960 building here. Um, my background, I was at the Downer's Grove Public Library for 688 00:54:38,559 --> 00:54:44,720 about 11 years. Um, and I've been in libraries for 23 years.

But um, if you have any questions for 692 00:54:55,520 --> 00:55:02,880 me, I'd be happy to uh, answer them.

And lastly, the Canadian National Railway is 738 00:58:00,319 --> 00:58:06,720 replacing the railroad crossing on Kho Boulevard the week of September 21st. So 739 00:58:04,559 --> 00:58:10,240 look for detour signs as Kho will be closed through traffic. And that 740 00:58:08,720 --> 00:58:16,319 concludes my report. Mr. Mayor, >> thank you, Mr. OM. Well, Carol Kadel 741 00:58:13,280 --> 00:58:22,480 retirement, it's a killer for us. I feel really bad that she's leaving. Everybody 742 00:58:18,559 --> 00:58:27,119 loves Carol. Carol is crime free. Carol, the all of the uh we call them red 743 00:58:25,040 --> 00:58:31,280 shirts. Our volunteers all love working with her. A lot of what we do in this 744 00:58:29,599 --> 00:58:35,280 village couldn't happen without all those volunteers. And if they weren't 745 00:58:33,119 --> 00:58:39,440 treated well, they probably wouldn't be here volunteering. and she's done a 746 00:58:37,119 --> 00:58:46,000 great job as most of the police before her have done with them. Uh Amanda 747 00:58:42,880 --> 00:58:51,280 Larson, 30 years, amazing that she still I'm just glad she's still 748 00:58:48,240 --> 00:58:55,520 sticking around. And then Brian Clever, uh Greg Walker and Mark Tel, 749 00:58:53,520 --> 00:59:01,119 congratulations on the 20 years. That's a that's quite a milestone. 20 years. 750 00:58:58,720 --> 00:59:05,839 Uh, this was the craziest weekend I think 751 00:59:02,960 --> 00:59:10,319 I've ever had in my entire life. If anybody would have told me that I 752 00:59:07,520 --> 00:59:15,680 would be in the middle of North Avenue doing the twist with Chubby Checker, I'd 753 00:59:13,440 --> 00:59:21,920 tell them they were crazy. But I had the privilege to be there about 15 feet from 754 00:59:18,799 --> 00:59:26,319 Chubby Checker while he was actually on they blocked North Avenue off. Arcata 755 00:59:24,160 --> 00:59:33,200 had their 100th anniversary in St. Charles. It was absolutely amazing what 756 00:59:30,240 --> 00:59:38,160 was going on. They did the whole Ferris Buer whatever the car, the whole parade. 757 00:59:35,920 --> 00:59:42,559 They played the music and then broke I think they broke the Guinness record for 758 00:59:40,000 --> 00:59:46,960 the most people doing the twist in the street. I guess I guess they got a list 759 00:59:44,720 --> 00:59:50,960 for everything. But it was probably one of the most interesting things I think 760 00:59:49,200 --> 00:59:55,280 I've ever I've done some interesting things. But any just standing in the 761 00:59:53,119 --> 00:59:59,920 middle of North Avenue in St. Charles crossing the street is like taking your 762 00:59:57,599 --> 01:00:04,319 life in. And now we're in the middle with all traffic stop, police, fire, and 763 01:00:02,480 --> 01:00:09,040 everybody. It was absolutely amazing. So, thanks to Arcata 100y year 764 01:00:06,720 --> 01:00:13,760 anniversary and those of you that that go to Arcata know they have some great 765 01:00:11,040 --> 01:00:18,160 performing people that are there. Uh, other than that, I shop Carol stream as 766 01:00:16,400 --> 01:00:22,119 usual. We need it. Uh, we could always use that. Uh 767 01:00:23,440 --> 01:00:26,960 that that ends my report. Motion to adjurnn. 768 01:00:26,240 --> 01:00:31,280 » So moved. >> Second. 769 01:00:29,280 --> 01:00:33,599 » Trusty McCarthy. Seconded by trusty frozone.
