8. PRELIMINARY ADMINISTRATIVE REVIEW

Before an application is presented to the Village Board, it shall undergo a preliminary
administrative review.

The Village Administrator, or their designee, shall coordinate the preliminary review in
consultation with the Department of Public Works and the Village Clerk.

The purpose of the preliminary review shall be to determine:

  1. Whether the application is complete;

  2. Whether the proposed subject appears to meet the basic eligibility criteria;

  3. Whether the proposed memorial type is feasible;

  4. Whether the proposed or potential location is appropriate for further consideration;

  5. Whether there are foreseeable operational, accessibility, maintenance, safety,
  utility, construction, or other concerns; and

  6. Whether additional information should be obtained before the matter is presented
  to the Village Board.

The preliminary review is not intended to constitute final approval of the memorial.

The Village Administrator may recommend that an application be supplemented, modified,
deferred, or not forwarded to the Village Board where the application clearly fails to satisfy
the basic requirements of this policy.

9. TECHNICAL REVIEW OF MEMORIAL TREES

For requests involving memorial trees, the Department of Public Works shall review the
proposed location, tree species, size, planting conditions and other operational
considerations.

The Village Tree Board may be consulted when appropriate regarding:

  1. Tree species;

  2. Tree size;

  3. Planting location;
