On the bid of Glen Chevrolet, they left out of the tabulation the cost of a spare ti re in the amount of $45.00.

The motion was carried. We have received letters from the Village attorney concerning Ordinance ~22. He feels no amendment-is necessary to accomplish the purpose of the Council in amending the ordinance to add the word "teen center", and he also felt the addition of the Criteria would tend to complicate, rather than clarify. The Attorney suggested that we enact a resolution on this instead of amending the ordinance. Discussion was held on this. MOTION: of Garrison, seconded by Pearsall that we stay with our previous amendment to Ordinance X22 and the amendment to Ordinance ~22, with the additional criteria and it so be published.

The attorney recommends that since we have an ease- ment on one side we can dig the trench without trespassing on the Grundy property. As far as the Attleson property goes, Yie has talked with Mr. Attleson and Mr. Attleson wants compensation of $300. for one tree and we would replace top soil and sod.
