RESOLUTION NO. 2002- 4 3
A RESOLUTION REPEALING VILLAGE RESOLUTION NO. 1991-54 WHICH ESTABLISHED
THE BUFFALO GROVE JOINT COMMISSION ON AGING
WHEREAS, the Joint Commission on Aging was established by Village Resolution No. 1991 -54 which
included an Intergovernmental Agreement and a letter of understanding between the Village of Buffalo
Grove and the Buffalo Grove Park District ("Agreement"); and
WHEREAS, the Joint Commission on Aging was established per that agreement to "cover the breadth of
leisure and social issues facing Buffalo Grove seniors and is an appropriate vehicle for establishing an
advisory board on senior citizen concerns;" and
WHEREAS, the Commission served throughout it's tenure primarily as a clearinghouse of information on
services offered by the townships, the counties and various other local, State and Federal agencies serving
the interests and needs of older residents; and
WHEREAS, that Commission has not met for almost a year and a half, primarily due to the perception that
the Village of Buffalo Grove, the Buffalo Grove Park District, and other agencies and districts were
adequately serving the needs of Buffalo Grove's older population via conventional means and channels;
consensus that senior needs and contributions are recognized and addressed successfully through those
conventional channels; as a result, no interest in Commission leadership having surfaced since the
resignation of the Commission Chair in June of 2001; and
WHEREAS, should it become apparent in the future that any safety, health and welfare needs of Buffalo
Grove's older adult population are not being adequately addressed by existing agencies, the Village can and
will address such issues as needed by the formulation of and appointments to task oriented teams.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE PRESDIENT AND BOARD OF
TRUSTEES OF THE VILLAGE OF BUFFALO GROVE, COOK AND LAKE COUNTIES,
ILLINOIS, that:
Section 1. That Village Resolution No. 1991 -54 is hereby repealed and the Buffalo Grove Joint
Commission on Aging is hereby abolished as of December 2, 2002.
