CITIZEN CONEWENTS
Fred DuSell, resident of Ward 2, expressed his concerns with the concept of sponsoring the Yorkville Big
Band. As a resident and taxpayer of the city he feels that the city is stepping out of the realm of what its'
responsibility is to its' citizens. He takes exception as a taxpayer that the city would use taxpayer funds
towards a private enterprise like this. He brought up the example of his homeowners assocation that has
traditionally paid for the park permits in order to put together a homeowners association and
neighborhood party in the summer which offers the children public education from the police and fire
departments. He thinks that the city council is exploring an avenue that favors one group of residents
over another. He feels that they are going to open a real can of worms if they allow this group to use the
Beecher Center which is a public facility. If other groups want to use the facility, council will need to
treat them the same. He feels that the city council needs to research this better.

COMMUNITY & LIAISON REPORT
Alderman Munns reported that the YEDC board meeting is tomorrow.
Alderman Golinski reported that he attended the Cable Consortium meeting last Thursday. Second
quarter billings have been sent out to municipalities. This is the rebate that he mentioned awhile back.
They were talking about rebating this back to the municipalities. The board decided to hold off on
discussion of any rebates until they do a three to five year budget projection to look at some of the capital
equipment costs and make sure that it is in the consortium's best interest to rebate these funds. Now that
we have 4 -5 years of history with the consortium we have enough numbers to do a projection of the next
3 -5 years. On another note, Alderman Golinski mentioned that the producer's class has also filled up.
This is one of the earliest times that this class has filled. FVTV has such a good reputation within public
access circles that we have a lot of people coming to take the producer's class from other municipalities.

Ordinance 2007- 69 Amending Governing Ordinance 2007 -53
Regarding Committee Liaisons
A motion was made by Alderwoman Munns to approve an Ordinance Amending Ordinance 2007 -53
(Governing Ordinance) of the United City of Yorkville, as presented; seconded by Alder Spears.
Mayor Burd asked for any comments or questions.
Alderman Werderich wanted it noted that he wanted to re- iterate the comments that he had made earlier at
the Committee of the Whole meeting. So noted.
Mayor Burd wanted to go on record as saying that she is not in favor of this change. She thinks that these
committees were formed to provide information to the City Council and that is their sole purpose. They
were not created to give any kind of perks to any individual aldermen. She doesn't think that the
chairmen should have any special powers beyond running the meeting. She feels the City Council
aldermen get their power as a group and as a group they need to learn to get along with each other and to
work to get consensus. It is not a consensus when you have one alderman dictating any kind of positions
to any other alderman. She feels this is a backwards step for us. Mayor Burd thinks that it was a good
thing the way it was written because she wrote it or She would like to see this go along for awhile
and not have these kind of changes made.
Alderman Munns commented that part of the discussion was that the committee ch airman would do their
best job for the good of the city to appoint liaisons and not use it as a personal thing to anybody.
Alderman Gohnski commented that it's not that big of a deal, it's just a simpler way to go.
Alderman Besco stated that when they passed the Governing Ordinance, everyone acknowledged that it
was a work in progress. It was not set in stone. They knew that it would be amended from time to time,
which is always the right of the council to do. As far as he is concerned, the recommendation came out of
committee three to one, so he has to value that.
There were no further comments or questions.
Motion approved by a roll call vote. Ayes -5 Nays -3

ADDITIONAL BUSINESS
Alderman Munns wanted to make a comment about the fact that he had been quoted in the Beacon News
today. He said when aldermen talk to reporters, he would like the reporters to take the whole comment
and put it in like they said it and not just pick out little pieces to make it sound more juicy than it has to
be. His whole comment was if it does get overturned by the Pollution Control Board and we end up with
something sited there that originally was wanted, then he wants the City of Yorkville to have control over
the operational issues of a potential use that might go there if they win the appeal. He said that the
newspaper chose to print just a little bit of what he actually said. He said that he has nothing personally
against anybody. For legal purposes, he just wanted to clear up what he actually had said.
Alderman Werderich commented that he was approached by a resident in his ward who was concerned
about the speeds that people are traveling on Route 71 between 126 and 47. He feels that the reason that
it has come up is now that 126 is closed, there is increased traffic on 71 between 126 and 47. Chief
Martin will look into it.
Alderman Besco asked if Alderman Spears was still working on the visitability ordinance. Alderman
Spears stated that they were still working on it.
Alderman Plocher asked for an update on Sunny Valley. Mayor Burd responded that they are meeting
with the developers on Tuesday.

2 WHEREUPON:
3 DANIEL J. KRAMER, %
4 testified before the Yorkville City Council as
5 follow:
6 MR. KRAMER: I am. For the record,
7 Daniel J. Kramer representing the petitioners.
8 My address is 1107A South Bridge Street,
9 Yorkville, Illinois.
10 As the agenda says tonight,
11 this is a 1.1 acre parcel. It's located on the
12 south side of River Road. The home is already in
13 existence.
14 The Briguglios have entered
15 into annexation that's we've proposed to the
16 City; we've got four signed copies of it. All
i
17 Staff recommendations have been filed for the
18 annexation agreement.
19 We have had our public hearing
20 before the Plan Commission and they unanimously
21 recommended annexation to the City.
22 We are happy to answer any
23 questions if the Council has any. We had
24 neighbors at the first public hearing Plan
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
5
1 Commission. Their only question to us was by us
2 annexing, was it going to force them into the
3 City, and we indicated clearly not, and that was
4 about the only issue that came up, so with that,
5 I'll be quiet and see if there is any questions
6 from the audience or Council.
7 MAYOR BURD: Any questions from the
8 audience? Sir.
I
9 MR. RUANE: Do you want me to come
i
10 up?
11 MAYOR BURD: Yes. Would you please
12 come up and identify yourself once again?
13 WHEREUPON:
14 TOM RUANE,
15 testified before the Yorkville City Council as
16 follows:
17 MR. RUANE: Good evening. My name
18 is Tom Ruane. I am the owner of Lot 1. There's
19 three lots in this Meyers' subdivision and I am
20 the unbuilt lot, and Mike Doles, who also wants
21 to comment after myself, is the owner of the
22 third lot. The Briguglios are Lot 2.
23 We are kind of confused because
i
24 in our agreements when we bought the property, it
Depo Count Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
i
6
1 was in the subdivision agreement that if one lot
2 annexed, the other two would have to annex.
3 That's part of the subdivision agreement made Pi
4 with the county or whatever. You might be able
5 to tell me different.
6 My concern is, Mr. Kramer had
7 said that there was public comment from the
8 neighbors that they would have to annex. I
9 wasn't there and Mike wasn't there, so I don't
10 know what public comments those were.
11 I wasn't made aware of that
12 first Planning Commission meeting, I never
13 received a registered letter or anything, and I
14 am directly adjacent to this property.
15 My main concern is the
16 reasoning for this annexation; the Briguglios are
17 there -- they are selling -- they are currently
18 selling their house, so there is no real vested
I
19 interest on their end except for monetary gain.
a
20 My concern is for problems that 1
21 can occur because of the logistics of the site;
22 mainly, any issues that would arise for myself.
23 Me and my wife do intend on building on this lot,
24 and the biggest issue with the annexation and us
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
7
1 possibly annexing into Yorkville would be the
2 logistics of the sewer and water. We would have
3 to put in what's called a lift station to hook up
4 to a sewer that's on the north side of River
5 Road.
6 Our invert elevation would be
7 40 feet below the invert of the sewer on the
8 other side of River Road; that in itself would be
9 about a $50,000 cost to us as a homeowner just
10 for the sewer. There is no water there yet.
11 Right now everyone else that's there is well and
12 septic and they grab and feed with the habitats
13 down the river.
14 The other issue would be the
i
i
15 other ordinances that would come with annexation
16 such as open burning. You know, no one is
i
17 looking to start a forest fire, but I don't know
18 if anyone has noticed, it's all forest. It's
19 very pretty through there. Even the group, the
20 Briguglios, had said that they burn their sticks
I
21 that fall from the trees. That we could not do
22 if we were annexed into Yorkville.
23 We have to take all that
24 material and push it up to the street and make
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
8
1 huge piles, and the village would have to take
2 care of that. It would be a burden on the
3 village, it would be a burden on the residents
4 that would be there.
5 I see no real advantage of
6 annexing in this property. It's not really
7 contiguous with anything per se, literally
8 touching another piece that is annexed, except
9 for the river I think, you know, and that's --
10 the next subdivision is on the south side of the
11 river, so there's really no advantage for this
12 annexation at all.
13 I just see some problems coming
14 up, and I know, you know, my word doesn't carry
15 as much weight because I don't live here, but I
16 intend on living here. I've always -- you know,
17 it's a beautiful piece of property, and, you
18 know, once my wife and I get our personal
19 finances in line, we've been saving to build our
20 dream house there, and this would really throw a
21 stick in the spokes.
22 I'd ask you to consider not
23 annexing this property and, if so, if you for
24 some reason see that there is an advantage to
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
9
1 annexing it, make some special considerations
2 where we weren't required to hook up to the
3 sanitary or the water or possibly even not
4 requiring some of the ordinances to be observed
5 there in terms of like open burning or anything
6 that would interfere with the natural, you know,
7 landscape. So that's all I have to say. Thank
8 you.
9 WHEREUPON:
10 MIKE DOLES,
11 testified before the Yorkville City Council as
12 follow:
13 MR. DOLES: I'm Mike Doles. I am at
I
14 10980 River Road, right next door. I have
15 basically the same concern, but my house is
16 built, so my concern would be if I was forced to
17 hook up to your sanitary or your water, that
18 would be something undesirable for me because I'm
19 not quite as bad as Tom, I'm probably 26 to 30
20 feet below River Road, so I'd have to have lift
21 stations also.
22 Also, I like being in
23 unincorporated Kendall County, no offense, I
24 would rather stay that way, but again, if you did
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
I
10
1 annex them, I would just like to have it my
2 choice to be annexed at my discretion, and that's
3 about all I have to say.
i
4 MAYOR BURD: Mr. Kramer, would you
1 5 like to address those concerns?
6 MR. KRAMER: Yes, I would. Again,
7 we've had three people show up at the earlier
8 hearing, and very clearly their concern was would
9 it force annex them in.
10 There may be some old covenant
11 from when this was subdivided some years ago that
12 maybe the original owner entered into with the
13 County, but it's not binding on the City. In
I
14 other words, there is no rule that the County can
15 force some property to annex to the City. You
16 always have consensual ability of whether or not
17 you want to take a property in, and it's frankly
I
18 one of the few times in your careers as aldermen,
i
19 you can be as discriminatory as possible and say
I
20 I like that property, I don't like this one.
21 There's no positive duty to annex whatsoever. So
22 us asking to voluntarily annex in no way forces
23 these folks to annex in.
24 As a practical matter, the lots
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
11
1 are roughly the same size, they're a bit over an
2 acre, ours is served by well and septic, it's
3 going to continue to be served by well and
4 septic, which is permissible under your ordinance
5 when you have an acre or more lot, so there is
6 not going to be any change in taxes, there's not
7 going to be any change in utilities, it's simply
8 my client's willing to govern themselves by City
9 ordinances, and, again, would allow the city to
10 take control of the property, but it doesn't
11 affect the neighbors whatsoever. Thank you.
12 MAYOR BURD: Do we have any
13 questions on it?
i
14 ALDERMAN BESCO: Dan, when they do
15 the title search on that, does the covenant show
16 up on a title search?
17 MR. KRAMER: Not what he's telling
18 us, about some sort of agreement to force annex
19 them in. There is certainly nothing with the
20 City that requires that.
21 Now, maybe, you know, there was
22 some kind of letters in the minutes of the
23 meeting back at the county level way back when it
24 was zoned. There is a ton of vacant lots out
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
I
12
1 there that aren't in the city.
2 ALDERMAN BESCO: So if we were to
i
3 annex this parcel, could we put something in --
d
4 Obviously there's going to be an annexation
5 agreement.
6 MR. KRAMER: There is, correct.
7 ALDERMAN BESCO: And could we put
8 something in there that they -- Like we do with
9 the right to farm, only something basically
10 stating what they do with their property does
11 not --
12 MR. KRAMER: Bind the other owner?
13 ALDERMAN BESCO: Right.
14 MR. KRAMER: I have no objection
15 subject to your City Attorney's approval
16 whatsoever. That wouldn't bother me at all.
17 MR. ROTH: And I don't know what
18 effect that would have, but there is no problem
19 putting it in there.
20 MR. KRAMER: I don't object.
21 MR. ROTH: I'm not sure how an
22 agreement between Mr. Kramer's client and the
23 City would bind the City with respect to the
24 annexation or not annexation of other properties,
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
i
13
1 but, nonetheless, we will put it in there and let
2 it as act as a representation or manifestation of
3 what your intention is in doing this and
4 hopefully bring some comfort to those property
5 owners.
6 ALDERMAN MUNNS: Mike, it would be
7 up to us to annex those other two properties
8 anyway, correct.
I
9 MR. ROTH: It would be. It would
i
10 be. Absolutely. And actually it would also be
I
11 up to them to a large degree as well.
12 ALDERMAN MUNNS: That's what I
13 mean.
14 MAYOR BURD: Alderman Werderich.
15 ALDERMAN WERDERICH: Actually one
16 question for Attorney Kramer and the other one is
17 for Mr. Ruane.
18 MR. KRAMER: Sure, Mr. Werderich.
19 ALDERMAN WERDERICH: What's the --
20 How come they want to become --
21 MR. KRAMER: Again, they want to
22 become part of the City. They feel it is
23 advantageous to them marketing the property.
24 ALDERMAN WERDERICH: Mr. Ruane --
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
14
1 and I apologize if I'm not pronouncing your name
2 right.
3 MR. RUANE: That's all right.
4 ALDERMAN WERDERICH: The language
5 that you were talking about saying that if one
6 parcel is annexed in that the other parcels are
7 annexed in as well, is that a covenant that's on
8 your deed or is that --
9 MR. DOLES: I'll answer it. It's --
10 it was the covenants for the Meyer's subdivision.
11 It's like a three -page --
12 ALDERMAN WERDERICH: And that's
13 recorded on the deed, it was recorded?
14 MR. RUANE: It was recorded, right.
15 ALDERMAN WERDERICH: Okay.
16 MR. KRAMER: And that obviously
17 can't bind the City, what private parties agree
18 with one another.
19 MAYOR BURD: Alderman Leslie.
20 ALDERMAN LESLIE: What would these
21 folks be if the City, if it was the will of the
22 City to force the annexation, would there be a
23 legal precedent in doing so?
24 In other words, could these
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
15
1 folks end up at some point in time down the road
2 being pulled in or will they always have the
3 opportunity to say no? j
4 MR. KRAMER: Well, that's a long
5 question in the sense of if they met perfectly
6 the profile of how many sides the City surrounds
7 them on and some acreage requirements, a city
8 council could do that regardless of what we do
9 here. They're still only going to have city on
i
10 one side of each of those --
i
I
11 ALDERMAN LESLIE: I am speaking
12 specifically with regard to the covenant.
13 MR. KRAMER: Yes. I don't think the
I
I
14 covenant plays any part at all, Jason, in terms
15 of the city force annexing. It boils down to
16 acreage and being surrounded by three or four
17 sides.
18 And I think the best protection
19 isn't what Dan Kramer says, and that's what I
20 told the people that were here at the earlier
21 hearing, it's been a course of conduct going back
22 five mayors and 30 years, none of us have ever
23 observed the City of Yorkville force annex in a
�I
24 residential piece of property, whether it's one
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
16
1 lot or a hundred acres. Not once in our history
2 that the City has done that, so I think that's
3 the best representation.
i
4 ALDERMAN WERDERICH: And this is a
5 hard question for you because you've never seen
6 it, the actual covenants of the subdivision, but
7 I just want to be real careful here.
8 Let's say that somebody new
9 buys the parcel of property. At that point --
10 and correct me if I am wrong -- can that person
11 sue the other two to become -- under the
12 covenants of the subdivision become part of
13 Yorkville?
14 MR. KRAMER: Well, as you know, you
15 can always find a lawyer for some amount of money
16 to file anything, but again, I don't think there
17 is any standard to force you as the City Council
18 to accept it.
19 ALDERMAN WERDERICH: And I guess my
20 concern -- Yeah. Okay. I understand what you're
21 saying.
22 MR. KRAMER: At the end of the day,
23 the discretion rests with you folks.
24 MR. ROTH: Can I ask a question,
I I
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
i
i
17
1 Dan? How many lots are in the subdivision?
2 MR. KRAMER: There's just three.
1
3 MR. ROTH: All right. Then what you
4 can do is you could amend the plat of subdivision
5 as long as everyone consents.
6 MR. KRAMER: Right.
7 MR. ROTH: And so if you would
8 represent that your client would sign such a
9 consent, which would then remove that
10 restriction --
11 MR. KRAMER: Right. Because like --
12 MR. ROTH: -- re- record it, they
13 want to re- record it, take that provision out.
14 MR. KRAMER: Well, I think that
15 would be -- Yeah, that would take care of it as
16 well, and we have no objection to that.
17 MR. ROTH: Good enough.
18 MAYOR BURD: Any other questions?
19 ALDERMAN LESLIE: Are there any
20 easement provisions with this annexation to the
21 City?
22 MR. KRAMER: There are. The City
23 asked us for some very specific ones, Jason, and
24 that's why we actually did a written agreement.

19
1 MAYOR BURD: Okay. We are now in
2 public hearing number 2 on B & P Properties,
3 Incorporated, an Illinois corporation,
4 petitioner, has filed an application requesting
5 rezoning from the United City of Yorkville M1
6 Limited Manufacturing District to United City of
7 Yorkville PUD Planned Unit Development to allow
8 for uses permitted in the R3 General Residence
9 District.
10 The real property consists of
11 approximately 14.325 acres located south of
12 Corneils Road and west of Caledonia Drive in the
13 Caledonia subdivision.
I
14 MR. KRAMER: Again, for the record,
15 Daniel J. Kramer. My address is 1107A South
16 Bridge Street, Yorkville, Illinois, 60560. I'm
17 an attorney licensed to practice law in the State
18 of Illinois and represent the petitioner, B & P
19 Properties, Inc.
20 This parcel was originally part
21 of the original Mike and Tammy Rosenwinkel
22 annexation to the City of Yorkville. It
23 originally had an underlying M1 zoning with kind
24 of a floating or flex zoning for R4 General
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
i
20
1 Residence District.
2 What we've actually come in and
3 asked on the petition is to in effect down zone
4 it to R3 PUD, which would permit 24 duplex lots,
5 or 48 units of duplex.
6 It's consistent with the City
7 Comprehensive Plan. The land, again, next door
8 to it is R4. We match with that only a lower
9 density and less intense.
10 At one point we had talked
11 about townhomes on the property; Plan Commission
12 recommended that we stick with no more than
13 duplex and that we do the PUD, and we've done
14 that.
15 This one, likewise, has an
16 amendment to the original annexation agreement
i
17 and embodies all of the Staff and Plan Commission
18 recommendations.
19 So, again, I'd be happy to
20 answer any questions of Staff, Council members,
21 or audience.
22 ALDERMAN LESLIE: Have you provided
23 architectural detail?
24 MR. KRAMER: We have not, Jason,
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
21
1 other than to say we'd be governed by the City
2 code. We've done footprints on buildings, but
i
3 we're not certain who the end builder is going to
4 be, so that's where we have no real detail in
5 architectural, but we would be governed by the
i
6 entire City Appearance Code.
7 Yes, sir. Wally?
S ALDERMAN WERDERICH: Two things.
9 First one -- and I apologize about this -- really
10 have my brain wrapped around the flex zoning.
i
11 Can you help me out with that?
12 MR. KRAMER: Sure. Again, back when
13 Mike and Tammy Rosenwinkel, they brought in a
I
14 fairly large farm that the City wanted some
15 sanitary sewer easements through and trail
16 easements through on a creek basis years ago.
17 We just weren't clever enough
18 at the time to know how the City was going to
19 develop, so we had hoped there would be an
20 expansion of the Yorkville Business Park that
21 sits right north of that.
22 Inland got the first couple of
23 users in; F.E. Wheaton has been great for the
24 city, we've got a couple of others in, and then
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
' 22
1 development of that stalled in terms of end
2 business users, and it allowed under the original
3 Inland agreement them to change the north part of
4 their property to residential if they weren't
5 getting users, which they took advantage of, and
6 literally Rosenwinkels did the same thing.
7 Once Inland put residences next
8 to them, it didn't make it practical to develop
9 the Rosenwinkels, which was on the other side of
10 the residential manufacturing, so theirs
11 automatically went to residential as well, and so
12 the annexation agreements gave them permission to
13 do that after a certain number of years.
14 ALDERMAN WERDERICH: Okay. I've got
15 the comprehensive map here and I was just trying
16 to figure out -- and, again, this is just for my
17 purposes here -- where exactly -- this is what,
18 right about here?
19 MR. KRAMER: Corneils, yeah,
20 originally, and the pink is transition area,
21 correct.
22 ALDERMAN WERDERICH: And it's all
23 within the pink area?
24 MR. KRAMER: Correct. And the
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
23
1 Rosenwinkels, what they sold, owned and sold to
2 another developer was in the yellow, and so that
3 was a mix of single family and townhomes.
4 ALDERMAN WERDERICH: Is any part of
5 the property part of the park and open space
6 portion on this site?
7 MR. KRAMER: It is not. That green
8 area that shows on that park and open space was
9 down in Inland and was preserved as a grove of
10 trees.
11 ALDERMAN WERDERICH: Okay.
12 MAYOR BURD: Any other questions? d
13 Alderman Golinski.
7
14 ALDERMAN GOLINSKI: Kind of off the
15 subject, Dan.
16 MR. KRAMER: Sure.
17 ALDERMAN GOLINSKI: What is north of
18 the property? Is that a racetrack?
19 MR. KRAMER: Actually it's a horse
20 farm, the MacArthur Horse Farm is over there, and
21 then -- where it says MacArthur Trust, and then
22 kind of surrounding MacArthur you've got the
23 proposed Ocean - Atlantic Westbury development,
24 which hasn't come back in yet, but it would be a
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
24
1 combination of golf course and townhomes with a
2 little bit heavier density.
3 ALDERMAN PLOCHER: What's there now?
4 It looks like there is a racetrack. Is that a
5 road or --
6 MR. KRAMER: No, they use it for
7 working out horses. Gary is right on Beam. THe
8 MacArthur family owns a number of horses. Joe
9 knows them fairly well.
s
10 ALDERMAN BESCO: Thoroughbreds.
P
11 MAYOR BURD: Any other questions?
12 (No Response)
i
13 MR. KRAMER: And, again, as I say,
i
14 the density on this with the duplex works out at
15 3.53, where the density with the townhouses next
16 door is 4, so this is actually a lower or less
17 intense use.
18 MAYOR BURD: Okay.
19 MR. KRAMER: Thank you.
20 MAYOR BURD: Thank you. Entertain a
21 motion to go out of public hearing?
22 ALDERMAN LESLIE: So moved.
23 ALDERMAN SPEARS: Second.
