Under further discussion it was mentioned that some Trustees felt they did not

have adequate time to do their due diligence and research this company since the

last Committee of the Whole meeting. It was also mentioned about the Land

Developers liability with the Village. Village Attorney Luke Glison stated that

since the last COTW meeting he has done extensive research on and with

preparing the contract making sure that the Village was fully covered by any

unknown issues that could happen. Mr. Glison stated he has a Pollution Insurance

provision in the contract that would protect us if the dirt that was brought in was

polluted as well as any environmental issues. Also in the contract was a Landscape

Bond that protects us if the Land Developer does not leave the property in what the

Village feels is in a suitable condition. Some Trustees stated they would like to

have the two additional weeks and bring it back to the Board at the next meeting,

this affording them time to do their due diligence and research the Land Developer

more as well as some of the projects he has worked on.
