REPORTS
MAYOR'S REPORT
Proclamation for National Drunk and Drugged Driving (3D) Prevention Month
(CC 2007 -21)
Mayor Burd read Proclamation for National Drunk and Drugged Driving (3D) Prevention Month (see
attached).
Ordinance Approving an Amendment to the Downtown Yorkville Tax Increment Financing
Redevelopment Project Area Which Removes Certain Parcels from the Project Area —
(COW 2007 -40)
Mayor Burd asked the City Attorney to discuss the ordinance. Attorney Orr explained that this is an
ordinance in order to permit the mayor to participate in discussions on economic development in the TIF
district by removing her property from the designated area.
Alderman Golinski asked if a motion and second was needed before discussion could take place.
Attorney Orr stated this would be a good idea.
Mayor Burd entertained a motion to approve the ordinance. So moved by Alderman Munns; seconded by
Alderman Werderich.
Alderman Golinski asked that this matter be referred to the Economic Development Committee because it
was brought forward to the City Council meeting agenda without any proper debate. He moved that the
matter be referred to the Economic Development Committee.
The Minutes of the Regular Meeting of the Citv Council — December 18, 2007 — page 4
Attorney Orr noted that this is a formality because an elected official cannot participate in any discussion
in regard to the TIF if they own property within the TIF boundaries. As alderman, Valerie Burd refrained
from any TIF discussions. As mayor, she would like to be able to participate so her property needs to be
removed. There is no economic development impact on this. She further explained that whether or not
Mayor Burd's property is in the TIF district, as an elected official, the property would not be eligible for
assistance.
Alderman Golinski stated that he wasn't very familiar with Robert's Rules but he thought that once a
motion was made to refer to a committee the debate on the original motion stops. Attorney Orr stated she
was not familiar with this and thought there had to be a general consensus to send it back to committee.
She felt the matter should be debatable because there may be other members of the Council that may
choose to vote on the issue. Alderman Golinski read from the Robert's Rule of Order Chart. Mayor Burd
asked if there was a second. Motion to refer to committee seconded by Alderman Spears.
Mayor Burd stated that this only pertains to her property and doesn't affect anyone else's. She wishes to
remove her property from the TIF and she should be able to do so. She asked the Council to vote to allow
her to remove her property so she can become more effective as a mayor when working with people
interested in redeveloping property within the TIF district.
Alderman Golinski noted that the City Council is under the rules of the Governing Ordinance and he has
already spoke twice on the matter which in not allowable. The ordinance allows for a one five minute
period for discussion with a two minute period for rebuttal. He noted that none of the other aldermen had
spoken on the matter.
Alderman Munns agreed procedurally with Alderman Golinski. He stated that the council is limited in
the amount time they can discuss a matter at the City Council meeting and he felt this matter should have
gone through the proper channels. Mayor Burd asked if he was questioning if she could put something on
the agenda and noted that several items have been placed on it without going through committee.
Alderman Munns felt that if someone wants to discuss an item they should not have to be bound by time
constraints.
Alderman Spears agreed that the matter should go through committee and on to the Committee of the
Whole so it can be discussed at length. She noted that the ordinance states "whereas the mayor and City
Council" and she questioned if the mayor could be party to the document. Attorney Orr stated that
technically the document should just say City Council.
Alderman Leslie stated he did not have a problem with the matter coming back to the Economic
Development Committee. He understood that the motive behind the removal of the mayor's property is
so she can be onboard with discussions about the area. He stared that there has been interest in the area
and time is ticking.
Alderman Werderich asked the mayor what her reasoning is with getting this done now. Mayor Burd
stated that Alderman Leslie has had to sit in on meetings because she cannot participate. She stated that
this is causing a time lag for her to get involved. Alderman Werderich asked if anything was on the
immediate horizon and both Mayor Burd and Alderman Leslie stated there was. Alderman Leslie
explained that he and staff have already met with developers. He commented that he did not have a
personal need for the matter to go to committee but he wanted to hear the other aldermen's concerns.
Alderman Golm' ski stated that he had a list of questions regarding the matter however this wasn't the
proper forum to bring them forward.
Alderman Mums asked Attorney Orr if Mayor Burd's property is removed now and the area begins to
redevelop would there be a conflict with her property being developed or bought. Attorney Orr stated that
as long as the property is owned by the mayor there can be no economic development on her property.
He asked that once she is no longer mayor, could her property come back into the TIF and Attorney Orr
stated that it could.
Alderman Sutcliff stated that she supported Attorney Orr's explanation that this is a formality. She felt
that the mayor needs to participate in the redevelopment because it doesn't look good for the city not
having the mayor involved and the sooner this was done the better.

A motion was made by Alderman Leslie to approve an Ordinance to Acquire Real Estate for the Purpose
of Expanding the City's Recreational Parks Area (Clark Property) and authorize Mayor and City Clerk to
execute; seconded by Alderman Werderich.
Alderman Leslie noted that originally it was thought that the parcel was 6 acres however upon surveying
the property it is about 4.5 acres. The stated appraised value of the property remained the same.
Alderman Spears asked how the purchase was being funded. Administrator McLaughlin explained that
the funds are available in the general fund. Alderman Spears asked what would be remaining in the
general fund and Mr. McLaughlin stated that currently the fund balance is over 30% of expenditures or
above the amount to maintain in the balance per policy. Alderman Leslie also explained that the property
is being purchased in installments; it is not a "chunk" of money up front. Alderman Spears was
concerned that in the discussion regarding the Zangler property it was stated that the city could not come
up with $100,000.00 for the sewer connection. Now, property is being purchased and in thirty days the
city will come up with $100,000.00 for the first installment. Mr. McLaughlin stated that the discussion
on the Zangler property was not necessarily that the city did not have the funds but rather they were not
budgeted for the sewer. He stated that the Council indicated that it was important to get the sanitary
sewer installed so staff is finding a way to get it done.
Alderman Golinski clarified if the city was pursuing grants to offset the cost. Mr. McLaughlin confirmed
that staff is exploring grants.
Administrator McLaughlin suggested that the ordinance be approved subject to the correct acreage being
placed in the document. Attorney Orr stated it was already changed.

1 MAYOR BURD: We do have a public
2 hearing. The petitioner has filed an application
3 with the United City of Yorkville, Kendall County
i
4 Illinois, requesting annexation to the United City
09:06PM 5 of Yorkville and zoning from the United City of
6 Yorkville, R1 Residential District, the United
7 City of Yorkville A -1 Agricultural District with a
8 Special Use for boarding activity and for hearing
9 as to annexation agreement of petitioner. The
09:06PM 10 real property consists of approximately 11 acres
11 located at 4378 Eldamain Road, Plano, Kendall
12 County, Illinois.
13 Can I have a motion to go into this
14 public hearing?
09:06PM 15 MR. GOLINSKI : So moved.
16 MS. SPEARS: Second.
=_ 17 MAYOR BURD: All in favor?
- 18 (Chorus of ayes.)
19 MAYOR BURD: Opposed?
09:07PM 20 (No response.)
21 MR. KRAMER: I don't have much of a
22 voice this evening so I will be brief. Dan Kramer
23 on behalf of petitioner. My address is 1107 -A
24 Bridge Street, Yorkville, Illinois. I am an
DepoCourt Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
4
1 attorney licensed to practice law in the state of
2 Illinois and represent Marlo Letterle. This
3 property is 11 acres on the east side of Eldamain
4 Road just south of Fox Hill Development. It has
09:07PM 5 always been used as a small estate home with a
6 barn that houses horses.
7 Frankly, she could board horses
8 under the county and under the City ordinance
9 without any kind of special use, but she does
09:07PM 10 desire to give occasional riding lessons to
11 children. And so when she purchased the property
12 she was uninformed and the lady told her there was
13 a special use. The long and short, there was not.
14 I suggested being bound by the City on two sides
09:08PM 15 that we go ahead and annex. That's what we have
16 done.
17 The annexation agreement that's in
18 your packet mirrors the conditions that the staff
19 recommended and we received a unanimous vote at
09:08PM 20 the planning commission earlier in the week. We
21 ask for a positive vote when we come before you
22 folks.
23 MR. LESLIE: It will be going to EDC
24 first then?
DepoCourt Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030

1 MR. KRAMER: Correct.
2 MAYOR BURD: Okay. Do we have any
3 questions from anyone in the audience on this
4 issue? No questions. Do any of the aldermen have
i
0 :08PM 5 any comments or questions?
I
6 MR. MUNNS: One. I think it is -- being
7 a neighbor and a resident of Fox Hill and you come
8 out and live in that part of Fox Hill, when you
9 drive around the subdivision, you get to see the
09:08PM 10 horses running around in the summer. I think it
11 is a neat kind of thing. Whatever, as long as we
12 follow whatever the City recommends, it should
13 stay that way. It is a nice piece of property.
14 MR. KRAMER: Thank you, Marty.
09:08PM 15 MS. SUTCLIFF : I tried to read through
16 the material. Isn't she plan on leaving it the
17 way it is?
18 MR. KRAMER: Absolutely, Robyn. At this
19 point she's not building any new buildings or
09:09PM 20 parking lots or driveways or anything. She's
21 giving some easements to the City for utilities
22 and a lot of things that connect to other areas
23 and donating some land to the county highway
24 department. We did show a possible future site
DepoCourt Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
6
1 that if she ever wanted to expand the barn, she
2 can. She would have to go through all the
3 building permit processing through the City, but
4 for the near term no expansion whatsoever, just
09_ _09PM 5 utilizing what's been done there for 20 years.
6 MS. SUTCLIFF: This is A -1?
7 MR. KRAMER: Right now it is in the
8 county as A -1 and coming into the City as A -1
�
9 special use with flex zoning, that she could come
09:09PM 10 back in and subdivide to R -1 but, again, it would
11 have to go through the whole subdivision process.
12 And there is quite a bit of
13 property that Marty indicated. There is
14 floodplain that should stay undeveloped that
o9:loPM 15 should stay as a nice buffer for Fox Hill.
16 MS. SUTCLIFF: Love it.
17 MR. KRAMER: Okay.
- _ 18 MAYOR BURD: Okay, any other questions
19 or comments? No questions. Thank you.
09 : lOPM 20 MR. KRAMER: Thank you.
21 MAYOR BURD: I move to close the public
22 hearing.
23 MS. ORR: You don't need a motion to
24 close the public hearing. You do not need a
DepoCourt Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
7
1 motion to go in and out of a public hearing. The
2 public hearing is published, so going in and out
3 on a vote is not necessary. It is not wrong but
4 it is not necessary.
