00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:25,920
all right good evening ladies and
gentlemen i'd like to call the january

2
00:00:23,119 --> 00:00:30,080

and please remain standing after the

4
00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:34,239
pledge

5
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:41,920
i pledge

00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:51,360

under god indivisible with liberty and
justice for all

8
00:00:54,239 --> 00:01:01,600
i am sure that everyone over the last
week was horrified by the tragic events

9
00:00:58,559 --> 00:01:04,559
that took place in kankakee and
currently illinois

10
00:01:05,119 --> 00:01:10,560
i think we take our police officers for
granted many of the times and

11
00:01:08,799 --> 00:01:14,240
unfortunately
the two incidences that were involved is

12
00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:17,200
probably every police department deals
with these types of calls on a daily

13
00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:20,479
basis
one was just for a barking dog and the

14
00:01:18,960 --> 00:01:24,960
other one
was an officer assist on a

15
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:30,560
motorist assist
unfortunately

16
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:35,920
police sergeant marlene ritmannick was
killed in the line of duty

17
00:01:32,960 --> 00:01:40,799
bradley police officer sergeant
her partner

18
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:44,399
officer tyler bailey was also shot he is
still in critical condition

19
00:01:45,119 --> 00:01:52,240
and unfortunately in wayne county
deputy sean riley

20
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:57,840
was killed in the line of duty while
assisting a motorist

21
00:01:55,360 --> 00:02:03,040
so we offer as a city of cresthill our
deepest condolences

00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:04,160
to speed on a lot of things
so thank you steve thank you

60
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:09,440
so before you tonight is a a policy for
your consideration a covet policy

61
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:14,560
that memorializes some of the practices
that the city has already had in place

62
00:05:11,919 --> 00:05:19,280
for its employees
the four components of this primarily

63
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:25,199
are quarantining and testing for people
that show symptoms of coca-19

64
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:29,520
wearing a mask and the requirements for
wearing masks

65
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:32,880
policy for time off if somebody is
recovering from covid

66
00:05:31,280 --> 00:05:37,280
and providing some time off for somebody
that needs to make daycare arrangements

67
00:05:35,199 --> 00:05:40,479
the primary difference as indicated in
the memo

68
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:44,160
is the amount of time off given to
employees if they're recovering

69
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:47,840
apparently the practice has been that
employees would get 10 days off while

70
00:05:45,919 --> 00:05:52,320
they're recovering from
symptoms of covet

71
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:56,800
that's not required by a federal
government it was uh previously when the

72
00:05:55,039 --> 00:05:59,919
pandemic first hit that expired at the
end of

73
00:05:57,840 --> 00:06:03,919
uh 2020.
so what i'm proposing here is we reduce

74
00:06:02,319 --> 00:06:09,120
the number of days that employee gets
paid off from ten to three but then we

75
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:14,479
sunset that on uh
january 28th so then after january 28th

76
00:06:12,479 --> 00:06:18,000
if somebody tests positive they would
have to use their sick leave paid sick

77
00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:21,360
leave or other paid time uh while
they're recovering from

78
00:06:19,840 --> 00:06:25,280
so that's really the main difference the
other item here is if somebody needs to

79
00:06:23,280 --> 00:06:28,000
make their care arrangements because
their child's daycare either closes or

80
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:31,600
their
their school closes for a period of time

81
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:35,840
they can take a sick day to make
alternate day care arrangements

82
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:40,479
so with that i'll answer any questions
you have was the sunset supposed to be

83
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:45,120
february 28th february 23 january did i
say january i'm sorry

84
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:49,120
by february 28th of 2022
february 28th okay

85
00:06:47,039 --> 00:06:54,400
any questions uh
in regards to the coveted policy uh yeah

86
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:58,560
mayor i have uh one thought here uh this
is you know for anybody whether they had

87
00:06:56,639 --> 00:07:01,840
the shot or not they're gonna get that
type of pay

88
00:06:59,759 --> 00:07:05,039
but you know a lot of times a person
gets the shot the day after they're not

89
00:07:03,919 --> 00:07:09,199
feeling good
i think we should maybe have in their a

90
00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:12,479
day pay for those that get the shot and
if they're not feeling good the next day

91
00:07:11,039 --> 00:07:17,039
they would get paid for that day because
they wouldn't went and got the

92
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:20,880
i shot know how the rest of council
feels about that but i know a lot of

93
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:24,800
people do feel sick after getting the
shot so

94
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:28,479
i would think one day paid
just for those that did get the shot

95
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:34,960
counsel thoughts
i'd like to make motion the way it's

96
00:07:31,919 --> 00:07:34,960
presented this evening

97
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:41,199
i'm sorry can you repeat that i'm sorry
i'd like to make a motion the way it's

98
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:47,120
presented this evening
i'll second that

99
00:07:44,639 --> 00:07:51,680
okay we have motion by alderman albert's
seconded by other women resolve

100
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:57,960

00:08:01,919 --> 00:08:05,680
you just want the day off to say i'm
sick

104

good evening mayor council the only
agenda

123
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:39,519
for you this evening
is the approval to purchase uh the two

124
00:09:37,680 --> 00:09:42,120
new vehicles for the public works
department

125
00:09:40,560 --> 00:09:50,720
uh in the
2122 budget we had per budget two f-350s

126
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:53,440
with tailgates and lights and everything
those

127
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:57,760
vehicles currently are would be a cost
of 37 000 a piece with a delivery time

128
00:09:56,720 --> 00:10:02,640
unknown
um due to current uh

129
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:07,040
you know time delays
recently with the city council approving

130
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:12,079
the building maintenance division um we
did a re-evaluation of our fleet

131
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:16,720
and it was determined that the building
and maintenance division won't need uh

132
00:10:14,399 --> 00:10:20,000
such heavy-duty vehicles that we have in
stock

133
00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:24,399
so our the decision was made to move the
two two of the f-150s to the building

134
00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:30,079
and maintenance division to pull lawn
mowers and small tools uh and then

135
00:10:27,680 --> 00:10:35,040
getting administration into more of a
suv which is better on fuel mileage and

136
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:38,959
items like that and also the biggest
item is they would be a savings of 13

137
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:42,399
300
these would be purchased off the state

138
00:10:40,959 --> 00:10:47,360

00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:49,520
negative about her ever complain about
her

289
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:54,559
anything you ever asked of her she was
there to do it the most dedicated and

giving
person you could just ever imagine

291
00:21:56,880 --> 00:22:01,840

understatement but
