Unfinished Business: Stormwater Discussion
Board President Kubiesa met with Mayor Morley and School Board President Collins for a leadership meeting to continue to help keep communication open between the three government entities. In regards to the removal of deed restrictions on the Berteau property for a land swap proposal, Board President Kubiesa read an email sent from the Mayor notifying both the School Board and the Park District that the City's legal counsel has advised that it would be too expensive to remove the covenant with little chance of success. Executive Director Rogers advised that the Park District's attorney contact the City's legal counsel for further clarification. The Board expressed its desire to be part of the solution to stormwater management because it impacts the entire community, but has found it frustrating that the City has not reciprocated the same enthusiasm on prospective solutions. On a final note, Board President Kubiesa stated that all options must be explored thoroughly.
