Meeting Minutes July 16, 2007
MINUTES VILLAGE OF CERRO GORDO
JULY 16, 2007
The regular monthly meeting of the President and the Board of
Trustee met at 7:00 P.M. on July 16, 2007 at 231 East South
Street in Cerro Gordo, IL. Among those present were: President
Jim Morgan, Trustees Brad Williams, Lyle Shoraga, Carol Huff,
Ron Price, and Mike Songer. Trustee Rod Forbes was absent. Also
present were Assist. D.P.W. Mark Blickensderfer, P.C. Pat
Carter, Treasurer Cris Perry, and Clerk Linda Ash.
Atty. Colette McCarty was unable to attend.
The meeting was called to order by President Morgan. The public
forum was conducted with one resident expressing a concern.
There were some issues with the handicap parking area by the
restaurant. The streets committee and the P.W. department will
look into this matter.
Minutes were approved as read on a motion by Trustee Williams,
second Songer, all yeas.
CLAIMS REPORT
Bill that arrived Monday but needed to be on the claims report
was presented. They were bills from Ameren IP, Bodine Services,
Verizon Wireless, and bill for MFT that was placed in the wrong
department. Motion to approve all claims was made by Trustee
Williams, second Songer, all yeas.
TREASURER’S REPORT
No county funds have been acquired as to date and that is why no
income revenue is showing on some funds in the treasurer’s
report.
There were three requests for water adjustments this month. Two
have been signed, one has not. Motion to approve signed
adjustment made by Trustee Shoraga, second Songer, all yeas. In
regards to the shut-off list, the resident on Westside Drive has
not responded to the terms set down for them. They will receive
one more notice and if not paid, their service will be shut off.
DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS REPORT
Rob was unavailable tonight, so Mark, as Assistant Director of
Public Works, gave the report. Street oiling will begin this
week, possibly as early as Monday. There are only 4 or 5 streets
that will be oiled and chipped.
The fencing will be up at the parks by the end of the month.
A culvert was replaced on Oakley road and also did some work on
the ditch.
There were several properties that were sent weed ordinance
notices. The Village is in the process of replacing several
signs-stop signs, speed limit signs, etc. These are all
regulatory signs and the Village received grants to replace
them. The Village will have to purchase the post for the signs
and keep records on all the signs.
There was a problem with the computer at the water plant.
Someone is coming in Tuesday, July 17 to check it out.
The streets department needs to do some patching-they are aware
of several areas. A new door is needed for scout hall. Rob will
get some estimates for putting in the new door.
CHIEF OF POLICE
There were no problems with the fair but a couple of complaints
were made about noise. The Village needs to draft a noise
ordinance and allow a special use permit for the fair or fathill
for exemption from the ordinance concerning noise.
Still waiting for the citations for Village ordinance work. Pat
asked if the park closed signs were in yet-Mark responded that
they are.
Pat request a closed session for personnel.
Pat was also approached by Cisco about police services-they
request 5 hrs a week, no more than 30 hours a month and will pay
$32.00 an hour. This will not take anything away from our
Village as far as police protection goes. Their main purpose for
the enforcement is traffic control and mainly for the part time
police officers. The mayor suggest $50 per hour.
The police department would have the authority to enforce the
ordinances of Cisco but will not be doing so. Trustee Williams
suggest we look at the contract and come back to it and to also
try a 90 day trial period before committing to a contract. The
Board suggest a 90 day, $40 per hour trial and check with
Colette first. The Board needs to make sure it is for the best
interest to the Village.
OLD BUSINESS
Since the attorney is absent due to some health issues, these
issues will be tabled for now.
The tasers have been ordered.
NEW BUSINESS
Appropriations Ordinance was presented for approval. Trustee
Williams made a motion to approve Ord. number 513, with a second

Motion to move to Liquor Commission made by Trustee Shoraga,
second Songer, all yeas. Motion was made to approve the Legion’s
liquor application. Motion to approve made by Trustee Songer,
Price second, all yeas.
Motion to return to regular session made by Trustee Williams,
second Songer, all yeas.
