Mike Rylko,Park District Director,stated that the request is for an 8:45 A.M.game for homecoming weekend,two days,not necessarily back-to-back,for homecoming weekend,and also the season-opening weekend. Lengthy discussion took place with regard to the best way to handle this situation. • It was pointed out that the Park District will be adopting an ordinance to provide a standard on sound amplification,limiting the sound at the perimeter of any park to 70 decibels. • Father Rezel of St.Mary's Church stated that the sound can be heard outside the church on Sunday mornings. • Concern was noted with regard to going forward with making changes that were not heard at the public hearing. • There was discussion as to whether or not this issue should be sent back to the Plan Commission for further testimony. Trustee Trilling asked that the motion be amended to possibly split the homecoming weekend between two weekends,one day each weekend,and not changing the times at all. Trustees Berman and Kahn accepted the amendment. There was further discussion as to whether or not equipment needs to be specified as long as the 70-decibel level at the property line is the standard. It was noted that staff needs to be sure that everyone needs to be protected with that provision. There was also clarification indicating that the provision will allow for six weekend days over four weekends to accommodate the possibility of homecoming being scheduled over two weekends. Both of the above provisions were agreed to by Trustees Berman and Kahn. Trustee Berman noted that he thinks the compromise is a good one,and he is in favor of it,however,he will vote against the motion only because he believes the neighbors should have a chance to comment.

Discussion took place with regard to the best side of the street for the parking restriction,as well as the time frame that the restriction is necessary.
