Alderman James expressed his concern about approving something that is not a budgeted item. He recommended that it be approved contingent on the approval of the revised budget. Alderman Burd stated that she brought this item forward because there is an April 20, 1995 agreement which states that the City will maintain the tennis courts and she felt that this was the obligation of the City. She asked that the rehabilitation of the tennis court be included in the budget. She suggested that funds be taken from the White Oak sidewalk project which residents have objected to and be applied to the project. Alderman Spears asked what the terms of the 1995 agreement are. Dr. Engler, Superintendent for School District #115, explained that the agreement was developed in the 1970's for the joint use and maintenance of the tennis courts and parking lot. The agreement does not have an end date. He explained that the parking lot was paved in 1992 without any contribution by the City. He indicated that these are the only tennis courts in the City and the cost to rehabilitate them is between $60,000.00 and $120,000.00. He explained the process needed to rehabilitate them and indicated that this summer the area will be cordoned off due to the rehabilitation of Yorkville Middle School and Yorkville Grade School. It was felt that this would be a good time to address the tennis courts. Alderman Leslie asked what the cost would be to the City. It was indicated that the shared expense would be approximately $40,000.00 for the rehabilitation plus an additional cost for the expansion of the courts. Alderman Bock asked if there was urgency for this project and felt that the funding should be found first. Dr. Engler explained that the School District would like to begin the project in May 2007 so that the courts will be completed by August 2007. He stated that the School District could go ahead with the project and would accept a letter of intent for funds after the City's budget is revised. Mayor Prochaska asked Finance Director Mika to see if funds were available in the contingency fund. Director Mika stated that there are funds available in contingency however other issues have developed and it would be a matter of prioritizing projects. She stated the sidewalk option suggested by Alderman Burd is a possibility. Alderman Munns commented that the City should partner with the School District and that it was a good time to address the courts. Alderman James reiterated that the letter of intent should be contingent on funding. Alderman Spears reminded Dr. Engler that the City asked the School District to participate in a School Study but was told that the School District did not have the funds. She requested a letter of intent from the schools indicating they will give the City $9,000.00 to share in the cost of The Minutes of the Regular Meeting of the Citv Council — February 13, 2007 — bage 3 participating in the study. Dr. Engler stated that he did not have a problem with this however he would have to ask the School Board for approval. Alderman Burd reiterated that the City already has a contractual obligation to participate in the rehabilitation of the tennis court and this is not something that the Council should be deliberating. She felt that if would be pathetic if the City couldn't find the funding. Alderman Wolfer commented that he did not have a problem moving ahead with the project but he agreed with Alderman James that the letter of intent should be contingent on funding. Mayor Prochaska stated that he did not feel that the City's contribution was excessive. He noted that there may be funds left at the end of the year that could be applied to the project however he noted that the funding of other projects such as the Sycamore light signal have been discussed. He did not recommend taking funds from the sidewalk project. He stated he would take a look at the budget with Director Mika and would make sure funds were available to use for the courts. Alderman Besco stated that when this subject first came to the City it was suggested that the grant writer could take a look to see if there were any grants available for the City or School District that would apply to this. Mayor Prochaska noted that Director Mogle has done some investigation however the City cannot apply for grants because the courts are not on City property. Alderman Wolfer stated he spoke with the White Oak Homeowner Association and was told that they are against the sidewalk coming into their subdivision but they do not have a problem with a sidewalk along Fox Road. Alderman Leslie commented that he did not understand the need for a letter of intent if an agreement already exists. Dr. Engler noted that the letter was not necessary. He stated that he wanted to bring the agreement to the City's attention and make the Council aware of the obligation that exists. Alderman Burd stated that she felt that the reason Dr. Engler wants a commitment is because some members of the Council are not quite comfortable with moving ahead with financing the rehabilitation of the courts and she understood his concern. She noted that students and the community would benefit from the rehabilitation and she encouraged the Council to move forward in getting this accomplished. Motion defeated by a roll call vote. Ayes -3 Nays -5 Burd -aye, Spears -nay, Bock -aye, Besco -nay, Leslie -nay, Wolfer -nay, James -nay, Munn -aye A motion was made by Alderman James to approve a resolution approving a Letter of Intent to School District 115 for the rehabilitation of tennis courts on Game Farm Road contingent upon funds being identified in the budget; seconded by Alderman Spears. Alderman Burd asked Attorney Wyeth if this motion leaves things opened ended in the event funds are not found. Attorney Wyeth stated that this issue will come back to the City Council when it fails to find funds. Alderman James noted that the agreement dates back to the 1970's without an end date or any clause for contingency. He stated that he did not want to pass another document without identifying funds. He stated that he supported the rehabilitation of the courts however he does not want to approve anything until staff has time to investigate this further. Dr. Engler asked why the funds couldn't be put into next year's budget. Mayor Prochaska stated that this was a possibility as the new budget is due in May. Alderman Bock agreed with both Aldermen James and Wolfer. He noted that the City has an obligation with the School District and it should be honored. He suggested that it be approved because the $40,000.00 will most likely be found. Alderman Spears asked Director Mika if she could provide the Council with a list of the priorities that the City is facing. Director Mika stated she would get this information to the City. Administrator Crois noted that there is a "wish list" however it is based on commercial development. Unfortunately, the City will not see the effect of commercial development until 2008. At this point, all the requests for budgeted items cannot be done in next year's budget; some things will have to be denied. I The Minutes of the Regular Meetin of the Citv Council — February 13, 2007 — nab Alderman Burd stated that she found this discussion hypocritical. She stated that she went over the minutes from the last budget discussion and some of the aldermen who are balking against meeting this contractual obligation were willing to vote for a project manager for the Engineering Department without documentation as to why this was needed. She noted that a whole year later this person has not been hired. Now these aldermen want a caveat on a contractual obligation. She stated that the Council needed to vote to pay the bill. Mayor Prochaska noted that the City has entered into a partnership regarding the tennis court in the past; they paid for half the cost for lights for the tennis courts. Dr. Engler agreed and stated that this was done in 1994. Alderman Wolfer stated that he agreed that the City has an obligation however he asked if the original agreement could be reviewed by the Administration Committee to see if it needs to be renegotiated or amended. He felt that the City Council was in agreement to participate in the rehabilitation however most of the Council wanted to find the funds first. He felt that this could be done in time for the School District to meet their time frame. Motion approved by a roll call vote. Ayes -8 Nays -0 Burd -aye, Spears -aye, Bock -aye, Besco -aye, Leslie -aye, Wolfer -aye, James -aye, Munn -aye Approving Letter of Intent to School District Construction of Tennis Courts Alderman Burd reported that this item is a request for the City to enter into a new Intergovernmental Agreement to build four new tennis courts. She stated that if the courts are built now, there will be a savings. Also, this would provide the City with tennis courts for tournaments. She stated that she has discussed this with the Park Board who was under the misconception that the City owned property across the street from the current tennis courts. This property actually belongs to the cemetery and because the property is not owned by the City, matching grants are not available for the construction of the courts. She stated that she has brought this forward to the Council and indicated that the School District does not expect the Council to approve this however it is on their "wish list" and they would like it to be considered. She stated that $110,000.00 would build four new courts on Game Farm Road as compared to $400,000.00 to build the courts in a different location. She asked the City to find the funding so the courts could be constructed by fall. A motion was made by Alderman Burd to approve a resolution approving a Letter of Intent to School District 115 for the construction of tennis courts on Game Farm Road in an amount not to exceed $110,000.00 depending on the City finding funding; seconded by Alderman Munns. Alderman Spears asked the Director of Park & Recreation Mogel what the Park Board recommendation was. Director Mogle stated that the Park Board discussed both issues regarding the tennis court and was open to the refurbishing of the current courts however they did not endorse the new courts because they need more time to gather information in order to research the project. They had concerns regarding the location, parking and congestion in the area. Alderman Bock indicated that he attended the Park Board meeting where this was discussed and agreed with what Director Mogle reported. He stated that the Board also felt funds should be identified before a commitment was made. He stated that in order to give the Park Board time to do their research he was going to vote against the resolution. Alderman Wolfer asked if there were any hard facts to support the cost figures for new courts. Dr. Engler explained that the School District and Parks Department have been working well together to share sites. There is a site in the Raintree Subdivision for a new middle school with a park next to it. In the planning process for the site, tennis courts were investigated. However, in the process of the reconstruction of Yorkville Middle School and Yorkville Grade School, the area of the current tennis courts will be closed down. Dr. Engler suggested to Director Mogle that the Parks Department consider adding four tennis courts in the parking pod in front of Yorkville Grade School. He stated that $110,000.00 would cover most of the cost of the courts, fencing, parking and landscaping. He stated that this was just a suggestion; the School District has not intention of building the courts themselves because the funds are not available. The School District thought it might be a way for everyone to save money if the School District and City joined resources. Mayor Prochaska asked if anyone had a dollar amount if the tennis courts were built somewhere else. Director Mogle stated that the cost per court is approximately $35,000.00. He did indicate there could be a savings to build the courts in this area because the parking lot is an established The Minutes of the Regular Meeting of the ON Council — February 13, 2007 — naee 5 base. He further stated that the Park Board has suggested an alternative idea which would be a ten court complex however they need more time to research this. Alderman Leslie commented that he would not like to pull resources from the south side of the city however if building the courts near the presents courts would attract to he would be in favor of the construction of the new courts. He did suggest that any new agreement with the School District have time restrictions. Alderman Spears stated she would like to get more information from the Park Board such as if there was a way to use Land Cash Funds to construct new courts. She supported the possibility of the courts being located in another area of the City so things would be equal for all residents. Alderman Besco stated that he liked the idea of all the courts being located in a group so tournaments could be held and that he was in favor of the new courts contingent on funding. Alderman Munns agreed with Alderman Besco. He noted that if the courts are located together, it should reduce the cost of maintenance. He supported the resolution. Alderman Bock noted that one of the concerns voiced by the Park Board was adequate parking in the area. He supported the Park Board's request to investigate the matter further. Alderman Burd stated that Park Board meeting minutes quoted a $400,000.00 figure to build tennis courts across the street from the existing courts. She also noted that according to Dr. Engler there are 500 parking spots in the area and she felt that this was more than enough. She noted that if tennis courts are built on the south side of town, students will have to be bused to the location which will cost taxpayers money_ She stated that this is an opportunity that is available now and it will not last forever so she felt that the City Council needed to decide now. Alderman Leslie stated that after hearing from Dr. Engler he was under the impression that this did not have to happen now. Dr. Engler explained that bids would have to go out in the next 35 to 40 days in order for the project to be done over the summer while the area is under renovation. Brian DeBolt with the School District explained that it would take 45 days to put together the bid package, make it available and to line up contractors. Alderman James supported the Park Board's request for more time to investigate and he stated he would like to hear their research. He stated he did not support this resolution at this time. Alderman James stated that it sounded like the City Council had a little bit of time before making a decision. Mr. DeBolt agreed with this statement. A motion was made by Alderman James to table this item until after a recommendation is received from the Park Board; seconded by Alderman Wolfer. Alderman Leslie asked if this should be a motion to postpone. Alderman Wolfer withdrew his second; Alderman James withdrew the motion. A motion was made by Alderman James to postpone this item until after a recommendation is received from the Park Board; seconded by Alderman Wolfer. Alderman Munns asked for a time frame for the Park Board to research this matter. Director Mogle indicated that the Park Board's next meeting was February 22, 2007. Mayor Prochaska asked that the resolution be put on the March 6, 2007 Committee of the Whole meeting agenda. Alderman Spears asked what the $400,000.00 figure covered. Director Mogle explained that the figure was based on $35,000.00lcourt for a ten -court complex. Alderman Burd corrected Director Mogle, stating that the Park Board minutes indicate that this figure was for five courts. Motion to postpone approved by a roll call vote. Ayes -8 Nays -0 Spears -aye, Bock -aye, Besco -aye, Leslie -aye, Wolfer -aye, James -aye, Munns -aye, Burd -aye CITIZEN COMMENTS Gene Sheeley of Yorkville addressed the City Council_ He stated that he was in the Navy and proceeded to explain site lines. He also explained that he worked on electrical high tension towers and described what can be seen from the top of them. He related this to the landfill and questioned from how far away the mountain will be visible. He felt that before anyone learned about Yorkville's good schools, neighborhoods or small town feel, they would know of Yorkville's mountain of trash. The Minutes of the Regular Meeting of the Citv Council - February 13, 2007 - naffe 6 George Gilson of Yorkville asked the City Council to reflect on what the annexation of the proposed landfill property will do for the community. He read case law regarding annexations and their purpose (to expand urban areas, establish land use control, to encourage health controls, etc.). He asked what the purpose of this annexation was other than to benefit a private corporation. He asked what controls have been asserted in the agreement to address the potential of fragmented growth and overall health and sanitation. He quoted from state statute 65ILSC5 /11- 15.1.2 regarding the vacation of Sleepy Hollow Road and asked what the public interest was in giving up the rights of the roadway. He further noted that the statute indicates that - no annexation made within 60 days of a general election shall be effective until the day after the election. He noted mistakes made in the process of the annexation and proposed landfill. He asked the Council to force Fox Moraine to withdraw the siting application and clear up the mishaps with the annexation until after the election. He stated that the approval of the annexation benefited Fox Moraine and will be giving the applicant what they want at the expense of Yorkville so he asked the City Council to vote against the annexation and the vacation of Sleepy Hollow Road. Arden Plocher of Yorkville commented to the City Council that the tennis courts need to be resurfaced and expanded. He recommended that the City Council consider this for the children in the community. Sandy Spang of Millbrook asked the members of the City Council if they ever threw out something they weren't suppose to such as batteries, paint remover, etc. She noted that many people throw out things they shouldn't. She asked if the City could guarantee that the landfill won't leak into an aquifer and negatively impact wells. Todd Milliron, 61 Cotswold Drive, wanted to know the difference between a contract with Fox Moraine and the School District. He stated that the Council vacated Sleepy Hollow Road because of the contract with Fox Moraine however the City Council is balking at $40,000.00 for the tennis courts when the City has a contract with the School District. He stated that if the City's audit was finished, the Council would know if the money for the tennis courts was in the budget. He asked that Fox Moraine be left in the County and that the City use leverage to get a better Host Agreement and renegotiate the North Star annexation agreement. He asked the City Council to take control and vote against the annexation agreement. He stated that the landfill landscape has changed and the City should negotiate new, more favorable terms for the City including a new disposal fee. Jim Friedrich, 7140 Oakbrook Road, Newark, indicated that he was the Fox Township Supervisor. He noted that his office prepared a letter regarding an opinion on the annexation and vacation however it may not have been received by the City. Members of the Council noted that they did not get the letter. He informed the Council of Fox Township's opinion; they oppose the annexation and vacation of Sleepy Hollow Road because the annexation does not represent an orderly movement of the community. He felt that the City Council had an obligation to work with Kendall County however he felt there is mistrust between the County and the City. He also noted that Millbrook is much closer to the annexation than Yorkville. He stated that it appears that the City has "turned its back" on neighboring communities because no one asked about their needs or concerns. He asked that the City Council vote against the annexation and reevaluate the situation. Glen Poole, 487 Calvin, Yorkville read an email he sent to Alderman Wolfer asking him to consider what the people in his ward want in regards to the landfill. He stated that he has spoken to residents in the River's Edge subdivision and everyone he spoke with did not support a landfill. He stated that the decision regarding the landfill will impact the lives and lifestyles the citizens of Yorkville forever and he asked that the City Council vote no for the annexation and vacation of Sleepy Hollow Road. Judy Gilmour of Yorkville asked the City Council to vote against the annexation because the vote is not just for an annexation but for a landfill. She stated that people are against the landfill so close to homes because they are fearful of the threat it poses to their health, safety and quality of life. She stated that residents are fighting to prevent the landfill and it is expensive and unfair that people have to spend their money to protect themselves from the harm the city is trying to do to them. She asked everyone who would like to help with the fight to buy a raffle ticket in order to raise funds that will be used for the legal battle to stop the landfill. Tom Gilmour of Yorkville and member of Friends of Greater Yorkville stated that the effect of the landfill on property values has not been stressed enough. He stated that he has been told by Mayor Prochaska and Mr. Hammon that there are expensive homes near other landfills and he felt that this is due to their location. He felt that the dynamics in the real estate market have changed and a landfill will doom the area for development. He further noted that the landfill is closest to The Minutes of the Regular Meeting of the Citv Council — February 13, 2007 — aa2e 7 county residents however they do not have a voice in the process. He commented that if an indigent person commits a crime and he cannot afford an attorney, one is provided for him by law however residents opposing the landfill have to raise funds to fight it. He asked the City Council to put themselves in their shoes. Randy Scott of Yorkville urged the City Council to think carefully about the annexation. He pointed out what he felt were a few mistakes; the error made with the Newark Library District and the lack of an expert to address the effect on property values. He asked the City Council to think of those living near the proposed landfill when they vote. Bernie Volte of Millbrook commented that he lives about 1 '/2 miles from the center of the landfill and he expressed his concern with its affects on the water quality of his private well. He explained that he is required to test his water however the typical tests do not address contaminates from a landfill. He stated that he trusted the Council to make a careful, judicial and fair decision regarding the landfill. Tim Johnson of 213 Leisure Street and a realtor in the area commented that the annexation will negatively impact the value of homes for sale in the area. He noted that his own home is for sale and he has been asked by a realtor about the landfill_ He also commented on the tennis court stating that this issue should be addressed. He noted that the trees in the area of the courts are causing some problems and that even with resurfacing it is poor site for the courts. He stated that he felt that the city should honor their contract with the School District however there should be an end date to the contract. Daryl Brown commented that he hoped the City Council would discuss the annexation the same way they discussed the tennis courts and he noted that he has not heard from some aldermen on the subject of the annexation. Alderman Spears asked Mayor Prochaska to clarify for the public the time limits on speaking. Mayor Prochaska explained that per the Governing Ordinance each Council member is allowed five minutes the first time around and then two minutes as a rebuttal. Stan Ludwikowski, 11261A Legion, commented that the decision made tonight impacts the community for generations to come. He asked the City Council to vote against the annexation because it is the first step to a landfill and that the landfill is for the benefit of a few at the expense of many. Dennis Batdorf, 802 Parkside Lane, stated that it has been discussed that the tennis courts should be taken out of the Raintree Subdivision. He questioned how much the community would financially profit from tennis tournaments. He questioned what will replace the courts in Raintree; a dump? He asked the City Council to do some math. He asked them to look around the room and figure if each person present knows five other people who is against the annexation what the vote will be on April 17, 2007. Marcia Ludwikowski, 11261A Legion, commented on things people do, look back on later and determine they made a lousy decision. She felt that annexing this property is not a good idea and she asked the Council to consider delaying the decision. Jeff Spang of Millbrook commented on the tennis courts. He stated that the Parks Department has used the tennis courts and that any decent or ganizati on would provide for the wear, tear and maintenance they have caused by use. He hoped the City would find the funding to help the school out. Mr. Spang also commented that he is sensitive to the "done deal" mantra that he hears. He stated that he refused to buy it this because he believed the City Council has not made up their in that they will make an objective decision on the annexation however he was disturbed by finding a land use plan which already shows this property annexed.

Alderman James reminded the Council that they were here to vote on the annexation and not to judge a landfill. He stated that the vote on a landfill was yet to come. He stated that he supported the annexation and felt it was the right thing to do for the residents of Yorkville. Alderman Burd agreed with Alderman Spears regarding following the letter of the law. She noted that she has walked through Wards I and H and a large number of residents in these areas are not in favor of the annexation. She stated that she went to the hearing regarding the lawsuit on behalf 600 petitioners who asked that the property not be annexed. She noted that the suit was dismissed but it does not dismiss the 600 names on the petitions asking the Council not to vote for the annexation. She stated that the Council needs to represent their constituents and vote the way they are telling the Council to vote. Alderman Munns commented that he has not made up his mind on any issues other than what is being voted on tonight. He stated that he is not on the Council to be in a popularity contest and that he is doing what he was elected to do and what he feels is right. He asked Attorney Wyeth if the Council is legally bound to approve the agreement. Attorney Wyeth indicated he would weigh it at the end of the Council's discussion. Alderman Besco commented that he is confident with annexing the property because it gives the Council control during the state mandated process. He stated that he was also confident that the Council would judge the landfill accordingly when it comes to that time and that he understood the resident's passion in this matter. Alderman Wolfer agreed with Alderman Munns; he will not be intimidated and he will base his vote on the facts that were presented to him. Alderman Bock stated that he agreed with Aldermen Munns, James, Wolfer and Besco. He stated that he was here to vote on the annexation of land and not on a landfill. Alderman Leslie stated that he has given the matter much thought and felt that a flaw in the whole process was having the City go against the County. He stated that the City has a vested interest in the protection of its residents. He stated that he had an issue with the vacation of Sleepy Hollow Road; he felt it was coercive. He stated that after speaking with several residents he understands the dynamics of the situation better and he will speak through his vote. Alderman Spears stated that the document the Council is voting on indicates they are in full compliance with the original annexation agreement which she felt is illegal because the agreement includes the vacation of Sleepy Hollow Road in it. She asked for a copy of all the recorded notices that are indicated in the document. She asked for a change to page 2, second paragraph regarding legal notices. The document states that the notices were sent out to all public bodies and she asked that it would be indicated that North Star Trust and Fox Moraine sent out the notices. She stated that she did not want the City to be responsible for the notices. She asked if Virginia Wells' property was included in the agreement. She indicated that she was tired of the way the County residents were being treated and stated that they are deserving of the City Council's respect and consideration. Mayor Prochaska commented that it has been stated that the annexation means that the landfill is approved. He stated that this is not the case; the language in the Annexation Agreement does not guarantee this. It does state that it is the intention of the landowner to have a landfill on the property. He noted that whether or not a landfill is sited on the property is not dependant on whether the property is annexed or not. He stated that what he felt was important was who judged the application and who will have the jurisdiction over it once it is developed. He stated that the development of this parcel will impact the City regardless if it is in the City or not. The Minutes of the Regular Meeting of the Citv Council — February 13, 2007 —Wage 10 Mayor Prochaska also stated that the proposed Prairie Parkway is planned to cross Route 71 and the interchange will be located on the eastern edge of this parcel. He stated that the interchange will provide incentive for commercial and manufacturing business development along the highway. He stated that the area where the landfill is being proposed will also have an effect on the development of the area. The only way for the city to guide development in this area is if it is annexed. He responded to Mr. Spang's comment regarding the land use plan; this parcel was already voted on and approved for annexation. The map was printed and then the question was raised regarding the legality of the annexation. A motion was made by Alderman Burd to amend the annexation ordinance to incorporate the change that Alderman Spears requested to note that North Star/Fox Moraine did the public notification; seconded by Alderman Spears. Alderman Spears asked if the City Council would receive copies of the recorded notices. Motion to amend approved by a roll call vote. Ayes -8 Nays -0 Bock -aye, Besco -aye, Leslie -aye, Wolfer -aye, James -aye, Munns -aye, Burd -aye, Spears -aye Attorney Wyeth commented that the question posed to him was if the City Council has the legal authority to annex the property this evening and the answer is yes. The issues that have been raised have been a minor error in regard to the failure to notice which was cured and the possibility of a defect due to the vacation of Sleepy Hollow Road. In regards to the vacation, he noted that that Annexation Agreement has a severability clause which indicates that if an item of the agreement is found to be defective, the remainder of the agreement, including the obligation to annex remains in effect. Alderman Spears asked if the City Council did not vote for the annexation, would there be a breech of contract and Attorney Wyeth stated there would be. She noted that the petitioner breeched the contract by not properly notifying the Newark Library. Alderman James asked how the vote for the annexation impacted the siting process. Attorney Wyeth stated that the siting process has begun and that the annexation is an element of the process. He explained that there is an item of fundamental fairness since the siting application was filed based on expectation under this contract. Failure to follow through on the promise could be viewed by a court as a beech of fundamental fairness and a prejudicial action by the Council in direct opposition to the attempts of the applicant to complete the process. Mayor Prochaska clarified that by state statute this requires a majority of the corporate authorities holding office. Motion approved by a roll call vote. Ayes -6 Nays -3 Bock -aye, Besco -aye, Leslie -nay, Wolfer -aye, James -aye, Munns -aye, Burd -nay, Spears -nay, Prochaska -aye Fox Moraine /North Star Parcel — Rezoning Mayor Prochaska entertained a motion to approve an ordinance reaffirming a rezoning of certain property and rezoning certain property in furtherance of an Annexation Agreement for property commonly known as the North Star/Fox Moraine property, as presented, and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute all documents upon final legal review. So moved by Alderman Munns; seconded by Alderman Wolfer. Alderman Burd stated that she had a problem with the document as presented. She read page one; paragraph four regarding the Plan Commission recommending the rezoning. She noted that the Plan Commission voted for the annexation but voted against the rezoning. She asked the City Council to follow the Plan Commission's lead and vote against the rezoning. Alderman James asked the reason given by the Plan Commission for voting against the rezoning. Alderman Burd stated that they felt the request for rezoning was premature because no plans were presented with the request to indicate what the zoning was needed for. Alderman Spears stated that she had a problem with the title of the document. She asked that the work "r eaffirmin g" be taken out of the title. She noted that this term is used throughout the document and she requested that item #I on page two also be removed as it refers to approving the Plan Commission recommendation. She felt that the whole document was flawed and should not be before the Council. Alderman Wolfer asked if this ordinance could be postponed so the Plan Commission vote could be researched and if the postponement would affect the siting process. Mayor Prochaska noted that according to statute, the siting can go into any zoning of the City. If the City Council does not vote to zone the property, the zoning defaults to the most restricted zoning which is R -1. The Minutes of the Regular Meeting of the Citv Council — February 13, 2007 — Mee 11 Alderman Wolfer asked the applicant's attorney, Mr. Phillipchuck for his input. Attorney Phillipchuck indicated that when the matter was before the Plan Commission agricultural zoning was requested on the larger parcel. The Plan Commission made their recommendation and this was presented at the City Council public hearing. However the annexation agreement, as approved, indicated that the property would be zoned A -1 Agricultural District. Spears requested that the document be corrected and returned to the City Council at the next City Council meeting. A motion was made by Alderman Wolfer to postpone the vote until the next City Council meeting; seconded by Alderman James. Alderman Besco noted an error on page 2, line six the word "duly" is misspelled. Motion to postpone approved by a roll call vote. Ayes -8 Nays -0 Leslie -aye, Wolfer -aye, James -aye, Munns -aye, Burd -aye, Spears -aye, Bock -aye, Besco -aye ATTORNEY'S REPORT Attorney Wyatt reported that Sibenaller v. Milschewski lawsuit was dismissed by Judge Mueller who indicated that as he reads the state statute, the statute referred to in the petition does not apply to this annexation.

He asked how the process was going to work. Mayor Prochaska explained that in the past the interviewing committee has been the Administration Committee. Alderman Munns recommended that the four aldermen who are not up for reelection be on the committee instead of the Administration Committee. Mayor Prochaska indicated that he did not have a problem with this. Motion approved by a roll call vote.

Is there 13 somebody here representing the petitioner? 14 WHEREUPON: 15 JOHN PHILIPCHUCK, 16 testified before the Yorkville City Council as 17 follows: 18 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Good evening, John 19 Philipchuck. I am the attorney representing 20 Rush - Copley Health with offices at 123 Water 21 Street, Naperville, Illinois. 22 With me this evening is Alan 23 Kato from Anderson Mikos Architects. Alan is 24 going to show you a Power Point. I think it's Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 I 5 I 1 the easiest and probably t he quickest way to take 2 you through this. 3 I think the Council will recall 4 that as part of your new PUD ordinance that you 1 5 adopted it is required that we come before you 6 for a public hearing requesting the planned unit 7 development. The underlying zoning that we are 8 requesting is B -3. B -3 will allow retail as you 9 know and also allow a hospital. Currently we 10 have projected and we have plans approved for a 11 medical office building fronting Route 34. 12 Of course, the plans for the 13 future are much greater than that and as a result 14 we are coming in and asking for the zoning now to 15 allow us to ultimately build the campus that will 16 include some retail, some physical exercise 17 facilities, parking, hospital, and various 18 related medical office building uses. I 19 So Alan, is -- 20 WHEREUPON: i 21 ALAN KATO, i 22 testified before the Yorkville City Council as 23 follows: 24 MR. KATO: Yes. Thank you for l i Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 6 1 hearing our presentation. My name is Alan Kato. 2 I am with Anderson Mikos Architects. We will be 3 presenting some drawings to you that have been 4 prepared by us as well as Cemcon, as well as 5 Landmark, for the landscaping. 6 The presentation is really 7 divided into two parts; the first part is one 8 which technically is not part of the PUD, but we 9 are presenting it to show you the style, the 10 character and materials, the design of the 11 ultimate PUD, so that's why that's included in 12 there. 13 As far as location, this is 14 Veteran's Parkway here, this is the future 15 Beecher Road on the back here. This is the 16 professional office building; that is part of the 17 first phase. 18 So as far as entrance goes, we 19 are bringing the main entrance down Beecher Road 20 into the say here with parking in front, and also 21 Staff would be able to enter off of Veteran's 22 this way, left in or right turn and a right turn 23 out at that location with Staff parking behind. 24 We are actually including a connection back in Depo Count Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 7 1 Phase I to John Street. 2 This is a landscape plan 3 indicating -- unfortunately it's a little -- 4 indicating the extent of the landscaping. You 5 can see we have taken care in terms of buffering 6 the adjacent spaces, the commercial located over 7 here, the residential down here really is not 8 impacted by the first phase. Our design includes 9 a tower element to it that we host to the 10 intersection of Beecher and Veteran's. In terms 11 of our design, we also went into analyzing the 12 light off of the parking facilities and have 13 found that we do not exceed the requirements in 14 terms of the village -- or the City and our 15 facility is within your standards. 16 As far as the first floor plan 17 of the facility we have the ambulatory surgery 18 location here, by the way. The intersection of 19 Beecher and Veteran's would be down in this 20 location down here. Also included is ambulatory 21 care and also diagnostic and treatment, including 22 an MRI, a CT, some women's health areas in terms 23 of bone density and ultrasound. Also included is 24 a small lab and registration for the building. Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 8 1 On the second floor we have tenant spaces as well 2 as on the third floor. 3 This will give you some of the 4 materials that we have used. This is masonry as 5 well as a lot of glass and also masonry with 6 stone accents and stone and shingle roof 7 elements. 8 To work your way around the 9 building, here is an image of -- from the 10 southwest, so then you can see an expanse of 11 glass. These are masonry walls and this has the 12 stone accents. 13 Up here is our signage 14 opportunity that faces the front of Beecher and 15 Veteran's. If you are standing right on the 16 intersection, Veteran's and Beecher, this is the 17 new detail, you've got your nice icon piece, 18 really this is to turn the corner around and draw 19 people into Beecher. 20 Working our way around the 21 building, this is if you are going eastbound on 22 Veteran's, this is the image you'll see. In 23 terms of the second phase, this is indicating the 24 professional building up here, the medical I Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 9 I 1 campus, which is about 600 -- 660,000 square i 2 feet, and one of the variances that we are 3 requesting is for a 90 -- 90 -foot high building, I 4 seven stories, and then down here we are placing 5 a parking facility here on center with I 6 medical- related retail and perhaps a pharmacy or 7 dialysis or things like that. 8 Down at the bottom here is a 9 150,000 square feet fitness center, and one of 10 the things that is very important in terms of the 11 design was to connect up to the Civic Center over 12 here, the Kendall County complex, so this line 13 extends directly and accesses directly to the 14 Kendall County complex. 15 Detention is shown in here. 16 These are areas for detention and we have 17 selected this area for detention because, one, 18 it's the lowest area, but also in conjunction 19 with the residential along here, this made the 20 most sense to create a buffer with the 21 residential to that side. There is a landscape 22 plan of that, and, again, you can see off to the 23 side here, this is where the residential is 24 located, the detention area. I Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 10 1 Again, a lot of landscaping, we 2 have along that side deciduous trees, ornamental 3 trees, as well as evergreen trees. 4 We developed a sign plan. This 5 is signage above on the tower, signage down on i 6 the base of the tower. We've asking for a 7 variance in terms of the height of pylon signs 8 that are located throughout -- throughout the 9 plan. These are really icon elements to in 10 particularly direct people to the main facility. 11 We are requesting to go -- the current standards 12 are six feet maximum, we are requesting ten feet 13 maximum -- or ten feet -- up to ten feet. We had 14 both the parking lots planned with some 15 structured parking and these sketches show the 16 typical parking stalls and the urgent care 17 stalls, you can locate 500 -- over 500 parking 18 spaces with the -- in the parking garage. 19 Analysis of the lighting, the 20 photometrics of the parking areas and the drives, 21 and that's just going through all the different 22 areas. Again, prove to ourselves that especially 23 along the residential area we are not creating a 24 light situation adversely in the space, and Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 11 i I ' 1 actually historically it's in 24 -foot high poles 2 for the development. 3 Here are some Cemcon drawings 4 of the preliminary plat of subdivision, I can't 5 explain this to you, and then also the 6 preliminary PUD plan. 7 Our site data, I think the 8 salient points here are we are proposing up to 9 almost a million square feet of building, and you 10 have 1623 parking spaces. To give you a sense of 11 this, at Aurora they have done around between 12 thirteen and 1400 spaces, so that's very -- very 13 comparable. These are just some 3 -D images. We 14 modeled the site, and one of the things that you 15 require -- what you require is we are proposing 16 for the mechanical systems that you not see them 17 from the ground, so we have screened mechanical, 18 we have screened mechanical areas throughout the 19 development. 20 These are elevations of the -- 21 of this facility. You can see a lot of detail 22 here. This is first phase. First phase will 23 expand over here and also then ultimately into 24 development -- we have not designed the Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 12 1 development per se, it's really just blocked out 2 on the masses. 3 You can see this -- this 4 actually has 90 feet, so we are proposing a 5 90 -foot high building, which is ten feet over 6 what the current zoning calls for, and this is 7 the 3 -D images, working around the -- around the 8 site. Veteran's is located right here, and this 9 would be an extension of Beecher to the south. 10 One of the things that was real 11 important to us in terms of design was to open up 12 the Town Center to the intersection of Beecher 13 and Veteran's, so the Town Center would be kind 14 of like a C -shape that opens up to the 15 intersection. Here you can see it a little bit 16 better. Beecher and Veteran's is over here 17 directly in line with the Town Center. And, 18 incidentally, we did line up the boulevard from I 19 the Civic Center to also -- you can see it there. 20 That's a very good way of making it a very 21 unified element to the community. 22 This is the image of the 23 southwest corner of the lot, the Civic Center is 24 over here, and the parking facility, and actually I Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 13 1 the parking facility is shown as half what the 2 ultimate is. 1623 parking spaces does not 3 include the potential expansion of another 500 4 cars potentially if there is need in the future. 5 And this is a view over -- from 6 the -- from the northwest. Again you can see the 7 extension of Beecher to the south and also the 8 relationship of the Town Center to the corner of 9 Beecher and Veteran's, as well as the 10 relationship to the Civic Center development to 11 the west -- to the east. And that's our 12 presentation. 13 MAYOR PROCHASKA: I will -- just to 14 verify that today you are looking for are signs, 15 the height of the signs and the 90 -foot building. 16 MR. KATO: Yes, and seven stories 17 instead of six. 18 MAYOR PROCHASKA: At this time then 19 I would ask if there is anyone in the public that 20 would like to ask any questions or give any 21 comments on the proposed PUD for this facility. 22 Come up and state your name, please. 23 WHEREUPON: 24 CHRIS ARNDT, Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 14 1 testified before the Yorkville City Council as 2 follows: 3 MR. ARNDT: Chris Arndt (phonetic). 4 Mine I guess is a question. I just want to 5 address public safety regarding Bristol - Kendall. 6 Do they have equipment to reach that facility? 7 Because I know a few years ago it was an issue. 8 MAYOR PROCHASKA: I don't know if 9 they have a ladder, they do have a big truck. 10 MR. ARNDT: That's what my only 11 question was. 12 MAYOR PROCHASKA: I believe that -- 13 MS. SPEARS: Actually I don't 14 believe it's been addressed to them at this time. 15 MR. KATO: I don't know if they've 16 asked about this specific one from the 80 feet to 17 the 90 feet. 18 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: We discussed it at 19 the Plan Council and it was brought up at Plan 20 Commission and the chairman of the Plan 21 Commission as you know is with the Fire District, 22 and so that was discussed, and they indicated 23 they had equipment that would be able to go to 24 those sites, their equipment. Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 15 1 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Okay. Anyone 2 else? 3 (No Response) 4 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Hearing none -- 5 okay. 6 MS. SPEARS: Regarding the 7 seven -story building, I would like to request a 8 letter from our fire chief indicating that their 9 equipment will reach that high because actually I 10 was the one that had a problem with trying to get 11 six -story buildings in here without the proper 12 fire equipment, and I think the -- at one time we 13 were told that we could borrow the equipment in 14 case of an emergency from Oswego or Sugar Grove 15 and I'd hate to be in that six or seventh story 16 waiting for somebody trying to get through 17 traffic from Sugar Grove or Oswego, so I just 18 would like a letter verifying that they indeed 19 can go up one more story, 90 feet. 20 And, also, the parking spaces, 21 I know you said you had room for a 500 -car 22 expansion. The reason why -- I have had several 23 surgeries over at Rush - Copley and I solidly 24 support that and I am very happy that you are I Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 16 1 coming here, it would be less distance for me to 2 travel, and I am nothing but satisfied with 3 Rush - Copley, and I'd like to say that. However, 4 the parking. I have handicapped parking and I 5 stilling can't find parking over there, it's I, 6 very, very difficult, so I do recommend that you 7 o ahead with our 500 -car expansion at this time g Y P 8 just to prepare for all the people that you are 9 going to be receiving and servicing. 10 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Just so you 11 understand, we would have to obtain a certificate 12 of need for the actual hospital building, so at I 13 that time we would have the more specific plans 14 and give you a rough idea of the bulk of the 15 building and approximate square footage. 16 We would get into much more 17 detail at the time that the population in the 18 community allowed us to move forward with that 19 request, and once we would reach that phase, then 20 obviously we would have more detail for you on 21 that building and then of course the parking that 22 would be needed for that, so... 23 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Alderman Munns? 24 ALDERMAN MUNNS: Yeah, a couple Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 17 1 questions. The thousand watt outlot lighting, 2 Eric, the thousand watts -- I don't see Travis 3 over there -- is that kind of -- I mean, how -- 4 what's a thousand watts? I mean, is that a lower 5 wattage for an industrial? 6 MR. DHUSE: Normal streetlights are 7 150s, the lights at Sycamore and Route 34 is 400, 8 and those are the differences. 9 ALDERMAN MUNNS: So then you are 10 saying your lights would be a thousand watts 11 according to -- but a thousand watts, I mean, it 12 does seem kind of bright, but -- 13 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: It's all 14 down - directed lighting, but that was the maximum 15 that we would do. 16 ALDERMAN MUNNS: Do you know what 17 you are going to be recommending to light the 18 campus? I mean, the current Rush - Copley, what is 19 that lighting? 20 MR. KATO: It's currently at 250 21 watts. 22 ALDERMAN MUNNS: And you are going 23 to have this one four times brighter than the one 24 in Aurora? I live right behind there so, believe Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 18 1 me, I'm getting a lot of questions about this. 2 MR. KATO: Well, we did the 3 photometrics. 4 ALDERMAN MUNNS: Okay. I might want 5 to change something in that agreement or clarify 6 exactly if you plan on lighting up the whole 7 neighborhood, I would shut the lights off if you 8 are going to put that much, but I didn't know 9 what a thousand watts was. 10 MR. KATO: It's down - directed. 11 ALDERMAN MUNNS: So it's going to be 12 a thousand compared to an open thousand. 13 MR. KATO: It would be completely 14 different. 15 ALDERMAN MUNNS: So it's downwards. 16 What exactly -- Why did you end up with that on 17 the campus? And then in the permitted uses was a 18 power plant, what was that, like an internal 19 thing to power the hospital? 20 MR. KATO: Yes. 21 ALDERMAN MUNNS: I saw power plant 22 in there. And then one last question about the 23 parking garage, is that extra space that would go 24 on top of that garage? Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 19 1 MR. KATO: Beside it. 2 ALDERMAN MUNNS: Beside. 3 MR. KATO: Yes. 4 ALDERMAN MUNNS: And how tall is the 5 garage? i 6 MR. KATO: Four stories. 7 ALDERMAN MUNNS: Four stories. 8 That's all. Thank you. 9 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Anyone else? Yes. 10 ALDERMAN BURD: I'd like to go back 11 to the height, the seven -story height. I was 12 pretty sure that we already have the truck in 13 effect. We do have that, because I remember Tom 14 Lindblom told me we had it in. But it seems to 15 me it gets to be a certain height where that's 16 not going to help either. 17 Does anybody know how tall a 18 building could be where even that would not work? 19 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Unless it was 20 discussed in there, it didn't seem to be an issue 21 with that, although to get a letter from the 22 chief saying that -- that the ladder goes up to a 23 hundred -- hundred feet I think, yeah, so -- 24 ALDERMAN BURD: Well, I know with Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 20 1 the high -rises in Chicago, for instance, there is 2 no hook and ladder truck that's going to make it 3 up to -- you know, I used to live on the 22nd 4 floor and that was pretty much it, you know, so 5 that was my thought. I 6 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Anyone else? 7 ALDERMAN MUNNS: On the parking 8 garage, all the traffic in and out on a daily 9 basis, is there any -- on the parking garage, is 10 there construction of a certain type? Because 11 again you're going to be pretty adjacent to a 12 bunch of -- the commons right there. I mean, I 13 don't know how much, you know, with a big garage 14 like that there is going to be cars in and out 15 all day long and horns beeping and things like 16 that. I don't know if parking garages or any 17 noise abatement or -- 18 MR. KATO: Generally -- I mean, it's 19 a parking garage. We are a little from the 20 property line -- 21 ALDERMAN MUNNS: 25 steps, I mean, 22 that's from here to the front door. That's kind 23 of -- kind of close there to the residents. If 24 there is going to be some constant, you know, Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 21 1 maybe you could look at possibly some outside 2 walls or something so the noise goes out to 34. 3 ALDERMAN SPEARS: Are you going to 4 provide security for the parking garage like 5 24/7? Are those going to be individuals or just 6 cameras or what exactly -- what type of security 7 would be provided? 8 MR. KATO: Well, we currently have 9 security guards on the grounds, but also it's 10 hard to point out -- the whole building is the 11 campus now -- in that new garage right there 12 there will be cameras, so I would suspect that 13 that garage is constructed as the campus. 14 ALDERMAN SPEARS: I would like to 15 state a correction on Page 7, in the document it 16 says the village rather than city. Just a minor 17 thing. 18 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Anyone else? 19 Alderman Burd. 20 ALDERMAN BURD: Just a quick 21 question about the Route 34 transportation 22 problems. I know Alderman Munns has commented 23 off and on with the traffic on that road. Do you 24 have any concerns about how to -- or how to go Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 22 1 about alleviating that? 2 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: We have been 3 coordinating with the commercial developer across 4 the street as far as the improvements that will 5 be done at the intersection of Beecher and 34 and 6 signalization and turn lane. All those things 7 are being planned that the Beecher extension to 8 the south side as well as to the north at 9 controlled intersections will be able to handle 10 those traffic volumes in that area. 11 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Anyone else? 12 ALDERMAN LESLIE: How far south do 13 you plan on extending Beecher Road? 14 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: We will be 15 extending it to the -- our southerly property 16 line, which we described as roughly 40 acres, and 17 so when the Conover family goes to develop the 18 balance of the property, that's when it will be 19 extended south to River Road. 20 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Anyone else? 21 (No Response) 22 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Hearing none, I 23 would entertain a motion to close the public 24 hearing. Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 23 1 ALDERMAN SPEARS: So moved. 2 ALDERMAN BURD: Second. 3 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Moved and 4 seconded. May I have roll call, please? 5 MS.
