CC Agenda 6/12/2012

[Ted]

                 
  Some interesting items on the agenda - a proclamation supporting HUD's effort in prohibiting discrimination based on sexual orientation; a "pocket park" at Wesley and Windsor; $29,000 in worker's comp settlements; World of Beer in the old Berwyn Bank Building (Oak Park & Cermak) and Felix Greco replacing Ken Fron and Janet Pechota being hired (the old BRDO is back from the 90s!).

  The other interesting item is the city clerk wanting to amend the FOIA ordinance to make people pay for FOIA copies per Illinois law.
