PC 94-4-** Alderman Baker stated that PC 94-1c, proposed Special Use request to operate a bed and breakfast will be tabled. PC 94-16 Alderman Baker moved into Public Hearing on the proposed rezoning from 0-Office to R-2 Duplex. Property is located south of Hillside Healthcare Center (which is located at corner of Route 34 & Game Farm road) and the petitioner is Inland' s Monthly Income Fund, L.P. , a Delaware Limited Partnership and the owner of the property is American National Bank and Trust Company of Chicago, as Trustee under a Trust Agreement dated 1-27-88 and known as Trust No. 104500-05 . Mayor Kittoe asked if anyone present wished to comment on this matter. Robert Foreman, 1211 Prairie Lane -- stated he feels this area is already overcrowded with duplexes . He is against this rezoning request. City Council Minutes - September 8, 1994 - page 2 Rita Murphy stated that she is extremely concerned with additional traffic that would be in the area due to duplex zoning. She stated that there is a large number of children in the area and additional traffic would be bad. Charlene Soukup stated that she lives next to the nursing home in one of the duplexes already in place. She stated that she is on the curve and in the three years they have lived there her mailbox has been knocked down several times by motorists who have not executed the curve. This zoning would add additional traffic and problems to this curved street. Matt of Inland, representing the petitioners, stated that access to these duplexes would be from Hillcrest south of the curve and this is only one lot. Additional two lots would be from Game Farm Road. Pat Foreman of 1211 Prairie Lane stated that the curve on Hillcrest is an accident waiting to happen. Also, Game Farm Road with the hill would also create traffic hazards . Sherry Duckett lives on Game Farm Road and indicated that additional driveways onto the hill area on Game Farm Road would create additional problems . Traffic is already heavy due to the school etc. She stated that she is definitely against the rezoning. It was noted that the property is already zoned 0-Office. He stated that the duplex zoning would actually diminish the possible traffic potential . Also, this would be a good buffer between the Hillside Center and single family residential property. Alderman Baker stated that the Plan Commission has recommended to the Council not to approve the change in zoning to Duplex from Office. Alderman Prochaska stated that zoning has changed in this area from the original plans . This original zoning of Office should remain in place. Alderman Johnson asked what the proposed Comprehensive Plan shows for this area. This is in the Plan for Office. Alderman Baker stated that the City Planners are recommending that if there is a change made to the zoning of this property it should be to Single Family Residential . J.T. Johnson stated that the Nursing Home is zoned R-2 Special Use and that the Office was zoned in hopes of attracting doctors to the area at that time. The council had wanted to have medical offices in this zoned area. With the nursing home R-2 Special Use and therefore if it were to cease being a nursing home it would resort back to Single Family Residential . Sherry Duckett stated that there are two lots near this property zoned single family residential and that if there is a change it should be single family residential . Sue Bullock indicated that the traffic would actually diminish with the duplex zoning from office zoning already in place. There would be much more traffic from the current zoning of Office and that there would be no vote on this issue they could just come in and build. Mr. Robert Foreman responded that he does not feel that the office zoning is a threat to the area since he does not feel anyone would be building an office building on that site. Attorney Dan Bauer reiterated to those present and asked the council to verify that this office zoning can be used now and that the citizens would not be able to stop this . He again reiterated that duplex zoning would in fact decrease traffic potential . City Council Minutes - September 8, 1994 - page 3 Attorney Bauer stated that the owners do have a contract to sell the property to a duplex builder. There is no consideration at this time to change the zoning to single family residential . Alderman Baker moved the Public Hearing into discussion concerning the vacating of City property located near City Hall at Madison and Jefferson Streets . This is located east of the City Hall and will be sold to the current resident. J.T. Johnson stated he would like to be sure the appropriate easements are in place on the drawing prior to signing of any of the documentation. Gary Sinding stated that the at the Plan Commission it was stated that the intention is to have owner-occupied duplexes and in fact they could be rental properties . Also noted that this could happen to the existing properties . Mayor Kittoe stated that the PC 94-14 Special Use request has been tabled to the next council meeting. A motion was made by Alderman Baker and seconded by Alderman Prochaska to move out of Public Hearing to regular session. Clerk Allison called the role: Baker - aye Prochaska - aye Johnson - aye Callmer - aye Clark - aye Stafford - aye Baird - aye Motion carried.

City Council Minutes - September 8, 1994 - page 4 CITIZEN COMMENTS Mary Unterbrunner of the YESS Committee addressed the City Council concerning the Yorkville Education Supports System for the upcoming School referendums . She stated that the YESS committee is asking the council to step out of its traditional role and look at the public education problems and issues . She stated that they are asking for leadership in the community to help address the public concerning these problems. Information has been submitted to all council members . Ms . Unterbrunner discussed the proposed growth in the Yorkville area and how they will effect the school system. She indicates that the problems are very evident and need to be addressed and solved now. Jim Hissong also addressed the Council concerning the upcoming November referendum. He states that the Board of Education has changed the referendum showing three issues : high school building fund, administration building fund and education fund. He states that Life Safety Bonds will be restructured over 20 years to allow the tax rate to be reduced for the building fund. The tax rates will be as follows : new high school building fund will be at 26 cents, administration building at 1 cent and education fund at 25 cents . Mr. Hissong states that the building of the new high school will alleviate overcrowding in all of the school district buildings by realigning all of the schools . The education funds will help decrease a current deficit and allow for additional teachers, books, etc . to be purchased. The administration referendum will decrease the current rent being paid at $36,000 per year and enable them to own their own building in 20 years . Gary Sinding also addressed the council by discussing the council . He states that the was elected or appointed for their leadership qualities and their collective wisdom. He states that the council should make wise decisions for the good of the community. He stated that this council has made tough decisions and sometimes takes "heat" for what they decide. Mr. Sinding stated that it is now necessary for the council to stand up and support the needs of the children by making a public resolution during tonight' s NEW BUSINESS to sanction and endorse the importance and passage of the November 8, 1994 School Referendum. Mary U. read aloud to the Council members a letter written from Representative Tom Cross . He discussed the current State of Illinois processes to fund education. He agrees that it is crucial to have good school systems available for children. He is also concerned about the availability of funding for the Yorkville School System. Mr. Cross does not feel that any significant changes will be made within the State of Illinois to help improve funding of the school systems . Therefore, he is in support of the school referendums to help insure good education for the children in the Yorkville School District. Alderman Callmer stated that he personally supports the referendums for the high school building and the education fund, but asked a question concerning the administration building fund. He asked if it was indeed cheaper to build a separate building than to attach it to the high school? Mary U. responded that there was a difference but it was not a great deal . It was commented by that the administration building is being handled separately since the last failed referendum. The Public seemed to indicate that they would choose to vote on them separately. City Council Minutes - September 8, 1994 - page 5 Alderman Pat Clark thanked all those who came and presented the YESS information to the council . She also stated that she personally endorses the referendum but does not feel that it is her place as an elected official to speak for her Ward. She stated that her Ward would be able to speak for themselves at the time of the referendum. Alderman Johnson also stated that he personally sanctions the referendum and agrees that with the possibility of five new subdivisions coming into the City that it is the responsibility of the city to work with the school about these issues . Alderman Prochaska indicated that as a parent of three children he also supports the need for a high school and education fund and looks forward to working with the school board regarding the growth that is coming to the City. He states that the City as well as the school needs to plan and be prepared to help better the City of Yorkville. Alderman Johnson stated that this was addressed when the City installed Transition fees, reviewed the City Subdivision Ordinances and all seems to be working well . Alderman Prochaska asked that the City and the school board work together. Alderman Stafford stated that he agrees the Children need additional room, but does question what happened with Parkview being closed, Circle Center not being added to and the decision to have portable classrooms . Mr. Stafford stated that he questions the 20 year payback and the indication that a grade school will be necessary in 10 years . He feels that he is as guilty as the School Board in not making sure that this issue wasn't addressed sooner. Mr. Stafford also indicated that it is necessary to have additional industrial businesses come into the City to help cover the costs of the schools, etc. He asked about plans for expansion of the current school buildings . Jean Birch, Second Grade School Teacher asked if Alderman Stafford was indeed asking them to wait for a vote as well as the building project to begin? She stated that the school system cannot wait to build a school . She stated the need is now. Alderman Stafford responded that it was time to review the room now and that when a building is completed that there is plenty of room. Dr. Engler stated that he has documentation regarding additions to the current building and costs of a new building. This also addresses the strategic plan of approx. 1988 and what went on at that time. He stated that additions to the building would be more costly than building a new school . Cheryl Hart stated that the conditions are bad now and that the district cannot wait for industry to come to the area. She stated that the problem must be faced today. Alderman Stafford stated that reports can be written to support all sorts of ideas . He stated that he read the report on Parkview. He is questioning the issue of room additions . Mary U. stated she moved to the area a few years ago and did not realize at that time the state of the school . Mary stated that you cannot change history and the portables will not last forever. If they were taken out today the district would be short of space for over 500 students . Gyms, libraries etc are all needed in the schools . It is not only rooms for classes needed. Her personal feeing is that a high school is needed for space as well as updated technology. and, Yes, a grade school will be needed in the future. She stated that the taxpayers would vote on that issue at that time. She also stated that the intention at that time would not be to raise taxes . City Council Minutes - September 8, 1994 - page 6 Alderman Stafford asked why the school board did not add on the Circle Center at the time of the first space crunch. It was built for this type of an addition. Nancy Thompson addressed the council indicating that she grew up in Yorkville and agrees that the growth is here and is coming. As a parent she wants her children to have even a better experience at school than she did. She indicated that when she went to school they had gym in the cafeteria and they continue to do this . She indicated that it is time to move on. As far as why additions were not built, this is not the issue. She stated that the last building for the schools was completed before she was born and that is the point. Bill Johnson, teacher, stated the core facilities are a big part of the problem, not just classrooms. This problem has been in place for over five years . Cheryl Hart indicated that the school district cannot count on industry coming to the area. The need is now and if it comes that is great and will help pay for it. She cannot wait down the road to begin to address the issue. Mayor Kittoe stated that the Amurol industry will bring in approx. $260,000 in property taxes to the City. This will help pay for the school, yes? Dr. Engler stated that any industry coming into the area will help. If in fact industry was to come, it would help to reduce the amount being passed onto the individuals . The industry will not build the building but if the building is up the industry might come. Mary U. stated that industry could help regarding the future need for the grade school that is indicated in the plans . New subdivisions have been figured into the equation on how to pay for this new building. Sheri Marshall stated that waiting an additional two years will only increase the costs to building a new building. She stated that remodeling is more expensive than building a new building. Dave Lippard, father of seven, stated that industry will come if the area has a strong school system. This will in fact attract the industry. She stated that through his seven kids going to through school the system has been putting bandaids on the system. He stated that the cheapest way to finance the building is available now. This is a window of opportunity for the school system now. Gail Digate was on the board and voted to close Parkview. The difference between then and now is that now it is a community problem. She stated that now is the time to solve this problem. A teacher at the high school addressed the issue of what happened with the school board before. He sated that the school board did not have its act together. Now, he feels this new school board does . He indicated that this school board is trying to follow what the community wants and is trying to do a good job with a poor situation that they inherited. Chris Nelson, teacher at the high school, stated that he moved to this area when Sandwich had its "problem" in the 1970 ' s . His children received a good education at Yorkville but feels that is not what will occur in the future if some changes are not made now. Robert Frye, teacher at the high school, stated that she grew up on the property that this proposed high school will be built. She encourages Alderman Clark to tell openly that she supports the referendum issues . Ms . Frye states that it is important for her to show her support. Alderman Clark stated that she does support the high school and education referendums . City Council Minutes - September 8, 1994 - page 7 Mayor Kittoe stated that on $120,000 home it would increase taxes by $208 for all three referendums . Alderman Prochaska stated again that as a citizen he supports the referendum and recommends that the group goes out and visits and talks to the community concerning the referendums . He feels that the community has alot of questions that are not being answered. Mary U stated that they are planning a question and answer session and coffees to discuss the issues . Asking for community help, they have asked for the Chamber' s endorsement and now they are asking for the City' s . Alderman Prochaska stated that the citizens are asking questions to him and he does not know the answers . Mary U. again stated that coffees and forums are being planned to discuss the issues . Mary U. indicated that the school district needs classrooms and additional items such as new labs etc. , that would allow the students to learn up-to-date technology, etc. The new high school would allow the district to spreadout the grades throughout all of the buildings . Jim Stafford asked if the group feels that the senior citizens of the area will leave if taxes in this area continue to go up. He stated that they cannot live with rising taxes such as these on fixed incomes . Industry could help cover some of these costs instead of the senior citizens of the area paying for them. Mary U. stated that she can understand that this would present a problem to the senior citizens of the area. Maybe the industry could help share the burden of the taxes for these persons . Alderman Stafford stated that this is an issue that the City is reviewing and is attempting to hold down the costs for the Senior Citizens . Dr Engler indicated that there has been no figure placed into the numbers for the Amurol industry or any other industry that may come into the district. The numbers being presented are without any new industry incorporated into them. Dr. Engler stated that when the new grade school proposed is built the fees charged to the new growth could be readjusted to help the new people and new industry help cover the burden. Sheri Marshall stated that she has spoken to several senior citizens in Countryside. They were previously opposed to the referendum in March but now they seem to be in favor of the new referendum and appear to be ready to vote for the referendum. Sharon Fuller indicated that she now teaches in the portable class rooms . She asked anyone present to come and see her classrooms and then they will know how overcrowded the school district is . Marge Wagoner asked the council why they cannot come to a decision to vote on this issue when in fact the City makes decisions that effect the school such as residential zoning etc. Sue Bullock questioned shy the council is hesitating to show their support for this issue. Alderman Clark responded that she does not feel that it is her position as a member of the City Council to vote on this issue. She stated that her job as a City official is to take care of the City' s needs . She agreed that a school is a city need but that the school board takes care of the school needs . Alderman Clark stated that it is unfortunate that the citizens cannot vote on such things as the court house, jail, etc. and that the only time they can vote City Council Minutes - September 8, 1994 - page 8 is on schools . She hopes this law will change. She stated that the education of children is important. She indicated that her constituents have a right to speak for themselves in this issue and she will not speak for them. Alderman Johnson stated that he does not have a problem voting on this issue. Alderman Clark stated that he has no problem voting on the issue but asked if the YESS group was not asking for a vote, why is it an issue? Ann Englehardt stated that it would be nice if the council could vote on this issue to show their support. Mary U. re-read that portion of her letter referring to the comment that they are asking the council to step out of their original roles and not asking them to speak on behalf of the citizens in their wards . But, as leaders of the community they are asking for their support as these leaders of the community. Also, as citizens for them to visit and discuss the issues with other citizens . Jean Berge stated that she would be pleased to have coffees on or for anyone on the council so that this issue could be discussed and presented to others . Mr. Lippard stated that there is an issue for increased taxes on the seniors . But, as a council, they are allowed to vote on a resolution, a non-binding resolution. The council could state that as a citizen they could vote as they wish but as leaders of the community they could state that they are in favor of the referendum issues . Alderman Clark stated that phrased like that it could be done. Alderman Johnson stated that normally the attorney draws up a resolution and it is voted at a later date. Alderman Baird indicated that he supports the referendum because he feels there is no other way. He did discuss the new assessments and how they have effected the senior citizens in the area. He has been contacted by seniors regarding their taxes and they do not know how they will make it. He feels this is an important issue and must be addressed. Also, Alderman Baird asked how the increase in the education fund will help to alleviate the current deficit if a decrease in expenditures does not take place. Sue Bullock asked if the commitment is there for a resolution to be drawn up for the City to vote on. Attorney Kramer stated that there is no legal basis not to vote on this issue tonight as this is just an advisory issue. Attorney Kramer stated that it would be his recommendation would be to complete a resolution to vote on the council ' s support for the referendum. Chief Graff stated that as a new resident and as Chief of Police of the community he would like to applaud the efforts of the school district and the school board for the last two years . He believes in this issue as a citizen and also as a Police Department he supports the referendum because due to overcrowding crime could increase by increased stress etc. He strongly supports the council to vote on this issue tonight. Mary U. asked about the Cap on Senior Citizens tax cap discussed. Alderman Prochaska stated that the City is attempting to place a cap on senior citizens taxes . City Council Minutes - September 8, 1994 - page 9 Chief Graff stated that this is a very important issue and that he has received documentation regarding a bill that addressed senior citizens tax issues . This bill would freeze the equalized assessments at today' s rate if the seniors earn less than $35,000 per year. He agreed with Representative Cross about looking for other ways to help fund school districts . Chief Graff stated that the Seniors and the Children are society' s greatest asset and that these issues but be addressed. Alderman Stafford agreed that the kids are very important to the community. His comments and questions are being made to help find ways to save the community money. Mr. Stafford indicated that there are people in this town who can barely make it at the tax rates now in place. They are not represented here today. He agreed that new business will not come if the schools are not here good, but he does not feel that business will come to a community that is over-taxes . Mr. Stafford stated that the children are important to him, they need additional room, and Yorkville is a good town. He also agrees the business will come. Mary U. stated that sometimes people have to sacrifice for the good of the Community and she feels this is the time. Alderman Baird asked when it will end, the courthouse? the jail? the school? the city? Mary U. concurred but stated that this is the time for the residents to choose to sacrifice for the kids and this issue. Dave Schmelzle, teacher at the high school, stated that he agreed these are all valid points but the issue is the schools . He stated that the state will not build this school . This is a community problem and the community must address this issue. Mr. Schmelze stated that the building issue must be addressed. Mayor Kittoe informed that the City of Yorkville has only issued 18 building permits . Mayor Kittoe says that the radio keeps talking about the rapid growth of Yorkville. Oswego had over 1,000 building permits there were 18 in Yorkville. These new subdivisions will take five years to complete. The growth is in Oswego. It keeps discussing Yorkville growing faster than Plano and Oswego. There were only 18 permits this year. Alderman Baird asked about the expansion to the current buildings in Oswego? Why is Yorkville not doing this? The needs are different and Yorkville cannot be added on the way Oswego was . Yorkville needs advanced technology. Mayor Kittoe stated that citizens are asking why circle center is not being added onto when it was built with oversized electrical and plumbing, etc. to allow for additions to the building. It was commented that this will not solve the current issue. An addition is not the answer. The new building will solve the current overcrowding issue and the needs of the future. Mayor Kittoe asked about the technology issue. What is this new technology? Sheri Marshall indicated that this would be additions to the science and language labs, computer labs, library etc . Angie Plank indicated that the elderly will go out and vote for this issue. They will speak for themselves . It is the parents that need to make a stand and vote in favor of this issue. Alderman Callmer stated that Springfield will address the Senior Citizen Tax Freeze regarding the bill addressed earlier and the November referendum will allow the Citizens to decide on this issue. City Council Minutes - September 8, 1994 - page 10 Alderman Baird asked about a proposed discussion of merging the City Library and the school Library. Mary U. responded that the feedback to her was that the Library board was not in favor of this issue. Mayor Kittoe stated that it will be important for the YESS committee to inform the residents about the technology and why it is needed. It was commented to him at one time that this would help people send their children to schools such as UCLA, Harvard and YALE. Inform the residents of the real issues and that this is needed for entrance to any college. A motion was made by Alderman Johnson and seconded by Alderman Callmer to move to pass a resolution in support of the Yorkville Education Support System as leaders of the community for the purpose of passing a referendum for the construction of a new high school and increasing the education fund. Alderman Stafford asked Dr. Engler the chance that senior' s could receive a tax freeze on school taxes . Dr. Engler indicated that at this time this is not allowed by law. This is a difference between the school and the City. Gail Digate stated that according to the school code this action cannot be taken. But, this school code could be amended and possibly the community could contact Representative Cross and Senator Petka address the issue of changing the school code.
