Citizens Comments:
°��88888a�.
Anne Englehardt and Marta Keane from the Yorkville Green Committee came to address the
garbage/recycle issue. Marta Keane wanted to address the solid waste contract. She stated that
different citizens have attended their meetings asking for different things to be done regarding the waste.
Anne Englehardt stated that the Green Committee has been together for four years. She stated that their
mission is to get the citizens and community to become more environmentally friendly. Anne said that
they would like to encourage more recycling and reduce the amount of garbage. She stated that they
could offer rewards for more recycling. Anne said that lower prices for less waste would be an
incentive. Anne stated that this would help seniors because they don't create as much waste. They
would like to keep a weekly service. Marta said that a modified volume system has become more
popular. Marta said that a volume based system has been in use for a long time in St. Charles, Batavia
and Geneva. It creates an incentive. Marta stated that you pay per bag with a tag if you generate more,
you pay more, if less, you pay less. You can still put out as much recycling as you want to. She stated
that Aurora also uses this system. There is also a revenue on recycling that can be looked at. Marta
stated that recycling markets have been going up and doing well. The metal and plastics are doing well.
Some communities are getting revenues for their recycling. Mayor Golinski asked what the names of
different carriers are that offer the recycling incentives. Alderman Colosimo asked how the homeowners
are being rewarded for recycling. Marta stated that however much recycling the hauler
Administration Committee

takes, the city would get a percentage of that. Bart Olson stated that we do technically have a modified
volume based program. It is set so there is not much of an incentive, you can put out one large item and
the 64 gallon can. Anne stated that they used to have five kids at home, but now that is just her and her
husband, they only have one bag of garbage per week and not anywhere near what they used to have.
She stated that they still continue to pay the same amount as they did before. She stated that she is
helping to pay for others garbage that is going into landfills. She stated that she would like to encourage
others to recycle more. Anne stated that if she could at least have a smaller can and pay a bit more, that
would be an option. Scott Sleezer stated that the current vendor does provide totes for the parks for
recycling. He stated that they tip them onsite for the city. He stated that at other special events they
will bring in extra totes for recycling. Scott stated that they have been great to work with and helpful.
Marta stated that it is not in the agreement as a formal obligation. Anne stated that we are not getting
behind a particular waste hauler. She said they just want to look at the big picture for the future. The
Green Committee is looking for improvements. Anne stated that when we were invited to be part of this
group, anything environmentally related that the city wants information about, they are there to lend a
hand in an area they are very interested in.
Minutes for Correction/Approval:
There were a few grammatical corrections to the minutes. The minutes as corrected from the June 16,
2011 meeting were approved.
New Business:
1. ADM 2011-31 Monthly Budget Report for June 2011
Rob Frederickson went over the budget report. On the expenditures side he stated there is a list
below. Rob stated that it is still early in the fiscal year. Bill Powell stated that last year for real estate
taxes we received six distributions. Bill stated that the ones that are currently due will be the large ones
and the others will trickle in. Alderman Spears asked about the police pension. Bill Powell stated that it
depends when the real estate taxes are paid. Bill said the money goes directly from the county to the
police pension. Alderman Spears asked if we are keeping up with the pension. Bart Olson said that
nothing has changed and they are on track with what the city planned to do. Alderman Colosimo asked
about the percentages. Bill Powell said that when we first formed in 2001 because of the change in the
IMRF, the funding is different. Bart Olson stated that we have a young staff and few retired. Alderman
Coloiimo stated that we have to plan for the future. Bill stated that we are in deficit from what the
officers put in as contributions and we are having to dip in from real estate to fund pensions at this point.
Alderman Colosimo asked how to make up the 70% we are under, what is the number that would make
that up. Bill Powell stated that they study it each year and presently the last one was around 500,000
that was suggested for funding and we are funding 375,000. Bart Olson said that the difference is a
phase in period and then you are required to kick that up. The difference is 33% to 40%. Bill Powell
stated that theoretically you should be 100% funded after 40 years and they are talking about extending
that. Bart Olson said that we should be 100% by 2043. Bart Olson said the solution
Administration Committee
July 21, 2011
Page 3 of 8
would be to levy a higher amount. Bill Powell stated that at one time they were looking at pulling out of
the city's tax levy. Bart Olson said that he believes that has to be done by referendum. The Alderman
had a discussion about different things in the budget seeking clarification on some items. Alderman
Gilson stated that we should revise the budget and take out community relations. There was a
discussion on doing that or not. Alderman Gilson asked about River Road Bridge, Julie and Repair and
Maintenance in the budget and if they anticipate staying within budget.
2.ADM 2011-32 Monthly Treasurer's Report for June 2011
Bill Powell stated that they still don't have their audit done so there is no beginning or ending
balance. June revenues were 4,004,876 and the June expenses were 2,105;611: .
3. ADM 2011-33 Cash Statement for May 2011
Rob Frederickson stated that this is just an informational item.
4. CC 2011-48 City Debt Obligations and Options— Refinancing
Bart Olson stated there are a couple charts in the committee packets. The last meeting the
committee asked Bart to itemize what the gap between the financing payment is each year and what the
city would be collecting in non sales taxes that could be dedicated toward roads. The other chart is
what the city would be looking at tax rate wise if the city refinances, versus if they do not. He stated
that yes it can decrease from year to year, but after that they increase slightly each year and five years
from now they go up again, if we haven't gotten on our feet again. Bart Olson said that he is
recommending refinancing. Alderman Colosimo asked about the details of the refinancing and how
much the property taxes are going to be reduced. Bill Powell stated that we kept the taxes too low for
too long and did not exercise the tax cap which has a compounding effect over years. Bart Olson stated
that the past four years, we have exercised tax cap, so we will not have that issue again. Alderman
Gilson asked if we can put this information in a press release so that the people can see it. Alderman
Gilson stated that those who wanted the sales tax wanted property tax relief and that is why they voted
for it, but he stated that the only way that will work is if the city does refinance. Bart Olson stated that
there is relief each year thereafter compared to where we are right now if the city doesn't refinance.
Alderman Gilson asked if we decide not to refinance and dedicate surplus toward repayments could we
accomplish the same thing? Bart stated yes. Alderman Munns stated that there is no money for roads or
anything else if we do that. The Alderman discussed maybe scheduling a meeting to discuss this with the
public. Alderman Gilson stated that he would like to reach more than the few that would attend the
meeting. Alderman Gilson said that he wants the people to really understand what is going on. Bart
Olson stated that he doesn't think he will be able to adequately explain all of this information in a press
release. Alderman Colosimo stated that he too is worried about the same thing and he stated that is why
we were elected by the people and we have to make the decision. Alderman Colosimo said that we
cannot go five more years without putting money toward roads. Alderman Gilson said that is why he
would like to ask the people if they want the roads or want us to put all surplus toward debts.

Mayor Golinski stated that the deadline is coming up soon, so a decision needs to be made. Alderman
Munns said that we need to have a black and white plan for refinancing, and decide where the money is
actually going and be detailed in the planning. Mayor Golinski stated that the sales tax was put through
to provide a property tax relief. Mayor Golinski stated that he believes that the refinancing is the way to
go. Alderman Gilson stated that is okay, if we stay conservative. Alderman Colosimo said that not
refinancing is really not an option at this point. He stated that we should have a nice study step down in
property taxes to get back to where we were. The alderman discussed the future of the city and what
will be coming up and how refinancing benefits the city. Aldennan Munns asked about road money and
how to allocate it so that all of the parts of the city will benefit. Mayor Golinski stated that yes, a
maintenance schedule can be done by a third party and decide what roads are in the worst shape and
make a schedule so that the citizens can see the progress. Bart Olson stated that 350,000 to 400,000
per year would be budgeted for roads and resurfacing. The Alderman suggested that 15 years is the
longest time that they would want to refinance. The Alderman agreed that refinancing for 15 years
sounds like the right decision. The recommendation will now go to city council.
5. ADM 2011-34 Home Rule—Discussion
Bart Olson explained that home rule is additional authority under the state constitution the city can only
do things the state allows us to do. If you are home rule, you can do anything that the state doesn't
allow and it creates a lot more flexibility. Generally, it is seen as a good thing as far as managing the city
like creating landlord ordinances and gives flexibility to decrease taxes. For example, if we wanted to
implement a gas tax to collect tax from out of town people that can reduce the property tax burden. For
home rule to be put into place, it is put on a referendum. Alderman Colosimo stated that he likes the
idea as long as we are responsible with the money. He stated that they do not want to raise taxes, but 10
years from now, he doesn't know if in the future others will want the same. The alderman discussed that
the idea of putting less of a tax burden on the city's citizens is a good idea. Mayor Golinski stated that
he likes the idea for the self government aspect. He stated right now we are mandated on how to use
our hotel taxes. Mayor Golinski said that the people will ultimately decide. The Alderman discussed the
good and bad to home rule. Mayor Golinski stated that the council can put more restrictions into place
with home rule. Bart Olson stated that we can change speed limits and have landlord rules if we are
home rule. Bart Olson stated that if the alderman wanted this on the March primary we would have to
decide by January 31St. Alderman Gilson said that 10% of Illinois municipalities are home rule. He
asked if there is no drawback, then why aren't more cities home rule. Bart Olson stated that most cities
are under 25,000. Alderman Gilson said that if it was all positive more cities would be doing this. Bart
Olson stated that there is a fair amount of outreach that needs to occur for it to be put on the
referendum. Alderman Munns stated that a pro and con list needs to be put out there for the citizens to
decide. The alderman review ed the packet of information and discussed different pros and cons of
home rule. Alderman Gilson stated that he would like to hear the options of the residents on this topic.
Mayor Golinski stated that ultimately the voters will decide on this issue. The alderman discussed that
we should look at this topic, but we need to wait and do what the people voted them in to do, lower
taxes and be responsible with the funds etc. and earn the trust of the residents.

6. ADM 2011-35 City Intern Discussion
Alderman Spears stated that this was her idea. She feels that it could really assist public works
for weed complaints and inspections. The alderman discussed that there are a lot of tickets that have to
be issued for weed violations and it takes a lot of time and an intern could be a big help in that area.
,This would be a seasonal position. The alderman stated that they want this intern to spend 30 hours a
week being proactive at going out to neighborhoods and document violators and then issue the tickets.
Bart Olson stated that he will get this position posted immediately.
7. ADM 2011-36 Library Impact Fee Ordinance
Alderman Colosimo stated that this topic is revision of the impact fee. The library wanted more
flexibility as to how they use the money. They have around 293,000 sitting in a fund. They would love
to buy books, or new technology. The way this ordinance is written, they cannot use this money for
anything but brick and motor. Alderman Gilson asked if they are trying to stockpile money to form a
positive budget to form a district. Alderman Gilson stated that he wants to make sure that they are using
this money for books and technology. Alderman Mums asked if we can lower the impact fee from$500
to $400. Alderman Mums stated that we could lower the fee to make it better for businesses that come
to Yorkville. The alderman wanted Alderman Colosimo to go back to the library board and ask them
where they really want the money to go they are asking for.
Old Business:
1. CC 2011-71 Ordinance Approving the Revision of the 2011-2012 Fiscal Budget
Rob Frederickson stated that there are five amended budgets to look at. Bart Olson and Rob
Frederickson stated that the Library Board decided to break into three different funds. There are
operational issues now that it has been split up. The alderman discussed that when the library budget
was combined it was difficult to see where the money was being spent it didn't show the true costs.
Alderman Mums asked about the library employees and discussed that there are a lot of janitors and
clerks. Bart Olson stated that they have cut back since going over the budget. Alderman Gilson asked
about taking public relations out of the budget and using that money for something that might be needed
such as paying for the intern position. Alderman Spears suggested maybe creating a fund to send out
surveys. Bart Olson stated that it also could be put toward training. Alderman Colosimo stated that we
can do surveys online instead, which saves a ton of money. The alderman discussed doing a monthly
question online. Alderman Gilson stated that we should put it toward contingencies, so we can use it for
whatever is needed. He stated that it doesn't mean we have to spend it. The alderman discussed putting
a code on the water bill that is sent out to citizens and then each household gets one vote per survey.
Bart Olson stated that what item wants approval is the difference between the fiscal year 2012 adopted
column and the fiscal year 2012 amended column. He stated that in parks none of those have changed.
We are not asking for any additional funds. Alderman Gilson stated that he still had questions about
different items in the Rec budget. There was a discussion breaking down
Administration Committee
July 21, 2011
Page 6 of 8
different items in the Rec budget to clarify how money is being spent. Alderman Gilson stated that he
wants to make sure that we are running a positive budget and we might have to make more cuts to do
that. Bart Olson stated that in a big picture policy the message has been clear that if we have extra
money in certain areas, if it doesn't need spent, do not spend it. Alderman Gilson stated that the board is
putting their trust in him to make sure that is how things are being run. Scott Sleezer stated that he
doesn't operate that way and he has been under budget every year. Alderman Gilson asked about some
details on the Rec Center budget and where funds are being spent and why. Tim Evans stated that those
costs are being offset with revenues. Tim stated that they have expanded their preschool and were in
need of another person to work part-time. Tim stated that staff needs to update their certifications. Tim
stated that they need to get another person certified for food handling besides himself. There is a cost
for those things. Alderman Spears asked what things are included in the budget for Hometown Days.
Tim Evans and Scott Sleezer went through and explained what that entails and they have sponsorship
and they charge admissions etc. Vendors help pay for the costs of the festival. Alderman Spears asked
for a breakdown of costs to get to the citizens. Bart Olson stated that there were only two changes in
Rec Center. One was on revenue side because prices increased on some of the membership classes and
that was offset by an increase in staff hours at the front desk, so that it was better staffed. The Park
Board voted on that back in April. Alderman Spears asked if the Park Board votes on something, do we
have the authority to deny it? Bart Olson stated that is correct. Alderman Colosimo and Alderman
Munns asked why is it that Park Board can still sign checks. The Alderman discussed the fact that the
bill list needs to be integrated back into one big central billing. The Alderman stated that they are
responsible for that money and would rather have better control. Alderman Gilson stated that the trend
for the Rec Center is losing money and it has to change. Alderman Gilson went through the budget and
discussed different areas where they have lost money consistently. Alderman Gilson stated that they
need to start cutting the Rec Center. Tim Evans stated that they have made a lot of changes in cutting
into this deficit and are addressing these issues. Alderman Gilson stated that he knows they are trying,
but he doesn't believe that it can be done. Bart Olson pointed out that Tim had last years deficit down to
67,000. Bart Olson stated that they have not been authorized to use any money from the general fund.
Bart stated that Parks and Rec has one bank account and they have been able to operate enough on the
surplus side under Parks and Rec from a cash flow perspective to offset any deficit. Bart stated that ff
you wanted to combine the two budgets you would be at zero between Parks and Rec and the Rec
Center. You have chosen to separate them so you could see how much the Rec Center operates. Bart
stated that they have not said it is okay to run a deficit. Then each year it rolls into a debt. Alderman
Munns stated that the deficit keeps going up. Alderman Gilson stated that it is projected through 2014
to be a deficit. Alderman Gilson stated that he believes they were elected to see where dollars are being
spent and we need to be conservative and cut things that are not operating correctly. Alderman Munns
stated that things should be leveling out. The Alderman agree that this needs to be addressed. Alderman
Spears stated that Parks money is going into the Rec Center. She stated that she would like to eliminate
the Rec and put that money into parks. Bart Olson stated that if you get rid of Rec Center it will not
have an impact on budgets on Parks and Recreation Department, general fund or land cash fund. If
there is a surplus, it is budgetary and offsetting the negative Rec Center on paper. Alderman Gilson
stated that the council has already made a policy decision and tonight we are looking at raw data and
there is a loss. He stated that if we don't start
Administration Committee
July 21, 2011
Page 7 of 8
peeling back what we see here, we are not doing what our constituents want us to do. Bart stated that
Tim has cut the budgetary deficit and he thinks he can do it again. Bart Olson stated that he doesn't
want them to act too soon. The Alderman asked then when do they take action? The Alderman don't
think that it is going to change. Alderman Gilson asked do you think that by 2014 the Rec will be self
sustaining. Tim Evans said it depends on what we do with renegotiating the lease, he thinks it could be
done. Alderman Gilson stated that is a hope. Alderman Colosimo stated that we have made it clear we
are not renewing the lease. Alderman Gilson said this was originally sold to the community as a money
maker and it is not doing that. Tim stated that the membership is continuing to rise. Alderman Gilson
stated that by December they have to make a decision. Tim stated that by December you will know
more on the numbers and what to do to make this work. Alderman Colosimo stated that the Rec Center
has been nursed for four years and we have to make a decision on the past history. Tim Evans stated
that by October we would have a better idea of what the numbers will need to be to break even.
Alderman Gilson stated that no matter what we negotiate, we will still be in a deficit. Alderman
Colosimo stated that renewing the lease is not an option. Alderman Colosimo asked if we leave the
budget the same what happens. Bart Olson stated that we will have to cut back on some part-time hours
and underestimating the membership fees. Alderman Colosimo stated that he agrees with waiting until
December and seeing if the Walkers renegotiate. Bart stated that instead of ratifying the Rec Center
budget do the Library, the Parks and Rec and you can have Tim go back and do a inter revised budget.
He has three extra months since April of what his costs are going to be and get you a better idea and in a
month give you more clarity where he is going to be. Bart Olson stated that the staff was not prepared
tonight for this level of revision to a budget. The purpose of this item was that Park Board threw a
technicality, so this budget didn't get approved. Bart stated give him some time to work on this.
Alderman Colosimo stated that the other budgets can be approved tonight, but not this one. Tim Evans
stated that for an informed decision down the road, we have seen that being combined as one staff there
in one building, we have seen a dramatic increase in our 79 budget. Tim stated that we have been able
to expand in that one facility and the membership is increasing. The alderman suggested that this item
be brought back in August. Bart Olson stated that they will bring recommendations and the committee
can do as they see fit.
2. PW 2011-39 Residential Solid Waste Franchise Agreement
Bart Olson asked do we want to change the program at all. Bart stated that at city council people
stated that they like it the way it is and said not to touch it. Alderman Colosimo stated that he
appreciates the Green Committee's input. I understand there are more fair ways to do it, but the pay as
you go program, you see it like in Aurora, it promotes public dumping. He stated that if it is not broken,
don't fix it. The system we have is working and is liked by the public. Alderman Spears and Gilson
agreed. Alderman Gilson stated that we need to keep the container program and the residents don't
want to see a change. Alderman Munns agreed. Alderman Spears stated that she got a lot of e-mail
stating to leave it alone. Alderman Colosimo stated that he would like to see a fee reduction for people
that take a small can. He stated that an incentive would be good for those that don't throw out as much
garbage to save money. Alderman all agreed that we can entertain other bids. The alderman all
Administration Committee
July 21, 2011
Page 8 of 8
agreed that they have done a great job and been very responsive. The Aldennan all agreed that they do
not want a sticker system.
Additional Business:
Mayor Golinski asked about IML. He stated that he thinks it is invaluable. He said they are
going to be addressing the ghost subdivisions. Alderman Gilson stated that we took it out of the budget.
The Alderman discussed how much it would be they self paid. Alderman Munns stated that we can learn
things. Mayor Golinski stated that if one alderman comes back with a great idea it could save us
thousands. It was discussed that maybe each alderman takes one day and pay their own way. Alderman
Spears recommended that we should wait until next year. Mayor Golinski agreed, but stated that he
believes that they should do it next year. Mayor Golinski asked if we are still planning on doing Holiday
Under The Stars again. The Alderman stated that yes it should be planned again. It was discussed doing
it all in the same location instead of two. Alderman Gilson liked the idea to condense it to Riverfront
Park and the other alderman agreed. Mayor Golinski suggested that the committee get more involved.
Mayor Golinski asked what the committee wants to do about the Old Jail. The Mayor stated that The
Cultural Commission has been doing a lot of work on the jail and asked if we want them to keep
working on it? Alderman Colosimo stated that someone should buy it from the city and make it a
museum or a private industry. We don't need to make money on the sale. It is not the city's
responsibility. Bart Olson stated that 162,000 was paid for it. Mayor Golinski stated that they raised
6,000 for fixing it up. They Alderman stated that they don't want to have to maintain the building. Bart
Olson stated that it could be used as an extra office space. Bart Olson stated that the haunted house was
a great thing because it made money. All of the alderman agreed it would be great to restore the
building and have a museum, but the city should not own it. They stated that they are not in the
restoration business. Alderman Spears asked if the ads for Hometown Days have been put out yet. The
alderman had a discussion about getting the ads out and getting volunteers. Alderman Spears said that a
citizen called her that lives on West Kendall and she stated that she would be willing to collect funds
from the neighborhood to get their roads done. Bart Olson stated that they can tell her the cost, but the
Alderman stated that they should discourage her from doing so.
There being no further business, the Committee adjourned at 9:35 p.m.

To: Administration Committee
Led- From: Meghan Ostreko, HR Manager
Date: August 9, 2011
<I.E Subject: Employee Manual Revision
Attached is a copy of the City's current Employee Manual as it was approved in early 2004.
Since its approval there have been various policy revisions, which are also attached. There have
also been multiple policies approved relating to personnel that were not approved as amendments
to the Manual. In its current state the Employee Manual is incomplete and inefficient as it lacks
clear standards for personnel practices and fails to address many labor laws.
Staff has been working on a revised Employee Manual over the past several years by researching
other municipalities' manuals, studying labor laws and discussing past experiences and practices.
Many of the revisions are relatively minor, made to provide clarification on some issues or to
provide information where there previously was none. Other minor revisions include relieving
the Mayor of some of the day-to-day duties and shifting that burden to the City Administrator.
There are also several areas of change that will have a much larger impact and will be a shift
from current practices. These areas require some extra attention and discussion and are
highlighted below:
• Part-Time Employees (Section 1.4.4)
o Staff is proposing removing the requirement that part-time employees must
receive City Council approval to work more than 1,000 hours per year.
Employees expected to work more than 1,000 hours must be enrolled in IMRF.
This should be approved by the budget process rather than on an individual basis.
If IMRF benefits can be covered by the budget than no additional authorization
should be required.
• Drug Free Work Place Policy (Section 3.3 &3.4)
o Staff is proposing expanding this section to provide much more detail into our
drug testing policies and practices. Separate (but similar) policies for DOT (those
holding a CDL license) and non-DOT employees. Up for consideration is random
testing for non-DOT employees, which is not something we currently do (it is
required for DOT employees), and offering a last chance work agreement for
employees testing positive for drugs and/or alcohol.
• Information Systems Use Policy (Section 4.4 &4.5)
o Our former IT Specialist drafted an updated and expanded policy in regards to
computer and internet use and monitoring, as well as email use and retention and
electronic records retention. One specific change is allowing limited personal
internet use during break or non-work times in recognition that this is a currently
accepted practice (examples: checking personal email or shopping online during
lunch).
• Grievances (Section 5.3)
o Staff is proposing implementing a three step process for filing a grievance and
shortening the time frames in which a grievance must be presented and responded
to. The proposed process would require a grievance to be filed within two days of
an incident (currently 15 days) with the maximum time frame for resolving the
grievance being 23 working days (currently 81 calendar days).
• Work Related Injuries (Section 7.5)
o Staff is proposing a more descriptive section regarding Worker's Compensation to
provide employee's with more description on the process. Also proposed is a
requirement for transitional duty (light duty) in which employees released by a
doctor to light duty are required to report to work when there is light duty work
available. This is not something we currently practice.
• Vacation Leave (Section 7.1)
o There are two major changes proposed in regards to vacation time. The first is
allowing a limited amount a vacation time (40 hours) to be used after six month of
employment as opposed to one year. The second change is increasing the amount
a vacation time for exempt employees in recognition for the long hours that they
employees work.
• Sick Leave (Section 7.3)
o Proposed changes include allowing sick leave for doctor/dental/vision
appointments and to care for a sick family member. Also proposed is a
requirement for doctor's verification if an employee uses 3 or more consecutive
days of sick leave and disciplinary action for excess use of sick leave without
medical verification.
• Employee Termination and Exit Process
o This is would be a brand new section as our current Employee Manual only has
one paragraph addressing only layoffs (Section 2.4). This new section would also
address retirement and voluntary resignation, provide for an exit interview and
detail benefits payouts and medical benefits continuation.
• Hiring Policy (Section 2.1)
o The hiring policy in the 2004 employee manual was amended in 2006 (Resolution
2006-77). That policy will be included in the revised manual with some minor
changes. New hires will continue to be subject to budget approval. A section on
job description creation is also proposed. This section will give job description
approval authority to the City Administrator and Mayor. Salary ranges will
continue to be approved by the City Council.
The purpose of this memo is to provide an introduction to the revised Employee Manual and to
garner the Committee's input on some of the bigger issues. A revised version of the Employee
Manual will be presented at the September Administration Committee meeting.

United City of Yorkville Employee Manual Final 02-10-04
Section 1 Introduction
Section 1.1 Purpose and Disclaimer
This Manual describes the current personnel policies that apply to all employees as a member of the
United City of Yorkville ("City") workforce. This Manual is designed only to introduce employees to
the City and to serve as a guide to present City policies, practices and procedures. The City has the right
to modify, amend, or withdraw any or all of the policies or procedures described in this Manual at any
time. All employees shall sign an employee acknowledgment form upon receiving this employee
manual. (Appendix A)
Although the City hopes that all employees will enjoy a long and mutually beneficial career with the
City, there is no guarantee of future employment or employment under any specific conditions. This
Manual is not an employment contract of any kind, and it does not create any rights in the nature of
employment contract, regardless of whether it has been distributed to new or existing employees, nor
does it provide any due process rights in the event of discipline or discharge. Nothing shall restrict an
employees' right to terminate their employment at any time with or without notice or cause, and nothing
shall restrict the right of the City to terminate their employment at any time with or without notice or
cause. No representative of the City, other than the Mayor with City Council approval, has any
authority to enter into any employment contract of any kind. Any contract or promise of employment
must be in writing and must be signed by the Mayor and approved by the City Council.
Section 1.2 Applicability
Unless otherwise noted, these personnel policies apply to all employees of the United City of Yorkville
government except that these policies do not apply to the following:
a. Elected Officials
b. Persons employed to make or conduct a temporary and special inquiry, investigation or
examination on behalf of the Mayor or City Council
C. Volunteer or appointed personnel who receive no regular compensation from the City
Unless otherwise specifically stated, none of the benefits referenced in this Manual apply to part-time
employees.
Unless otherwise provided for in a written contract of employment, Department Heads or other
supervisory employees are subject to this Manual. If employees are a Department Head, where
provisions discuss an employee's relationship with his Department Head, they may assume that the
Mayor has that relationship vis-a-vis themselves. If an employee has a direct relationship with the
Mayor as their immediate supervisor, such as: the City Administrator, Chief of Police, or Park and
Recreation Executive Director where provisions discuss an employees' relationship with employees'
Department Head, the employee may assume the Mayor has that relationship vis-a-vis themselves. If
they have any questions regarding how this Manual applies to them because of their position with the
City, they should contact their immediate supervisor for clarification.

Section 3.2 Anti-Harassment Policy
The United City of Yorkville is committed to maintaining a work environment that is free of
discrimination. In keeping with this commitment,we will not tolerate harassment of City employees by
anyone, including any supervisor, co-worker, or any third party. All employees are expected to avoid
any behavior or conduct that could reasonably be interpreted as harassment. All employees are expected
to make it known promptly, through the avenues identified below, whenever they experience or witness
offensive or unwelcome conduct.
Harassment consists of unwelcome conduct, whether verbal, physical, or visual, that is based upon a
person's protected status, such as sex, color, race, religion, national origin, age, physical or mental
disability or other protected group status. The City will not tolerate harassing conduct that affects
tangible job benefits, that interferes unreasonably with an individual's work performance, or that creates
an intimidating, hostile, or offensive working environment. Such harassment may include, for example,
jokes about another person's protected status, kidding, teasing or practical jokes directed at a person
based on his or her protected status.
Sexual harassment deserves special mention. Unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors,
and other physical, verbal, or visual conduct based on sex constitute sexual harassment when(1)
submission to the conduct is an explicit or implicit term or condition of employment, (2) submission to
or rejection of the conduct is used as the basis for an employment decision, or(3)the conduct has the
purpose or effect of unreasonably interfering with an individual's work performance or creating an
intimidating, hostile, or offensive working environment. Sexual harassment is conduct based on sex,
whether directed towards a person of the opposite or same sex, and may include explicit sexual
propositions, sexual innuendo, suggestive comments, sexually oriented "kidding" or "teasing", "practical
jokes",jokes about obscene printed or visual material, and physical contact such as patting, pinching, or
brushing against another person's body.
All City employees are responsible to help assure that harassment is avoided. Anyone who believes that
they have experienced or witnessed harassment should notify the City Administrator, a Department
Head, Supervisor, City Attorney, Mayor or City Clerk
Employee Assistance Program(Appendix E), Coordinator/Contact person as posted on the employee
bulletin board. The City forbids retaliation against anyone for reporting harassment, assisting in making
a harassing complaint, or cooperating in a harassment investigation. Anyone who believes that they
have been retaliated against should notify the City Administrator, a Department Head, Supervisor, City
Attorney, Mayor, or City Clerk..
7
United City of Yorkville Employee Manual Final 02-10-04
The City's policy is to investigate all such complaints thoroughly and promptly. To the fullest extent
practicable, the City will keep complaints and the terms of their resolution confidential. If an
investigation confirms that a violation of the policy has occurred,the City will take corrective action,
including discipline, up to and including immediate termination of employment.
An employee who believes that he or she has been the subject of harassment or retaliation for
complaining about harassment also has the right to file a charge of civil rights violations with the
appropriate state or federal enforcement agency. These include:

Section 3.3 Drug-Free Workplace Policy (Appendix F)
Section 3.3.1 The United City of Yorkville has adopted a Drug-Free Workplace Policy as
described in Resolution Number 93-17 (10-25-1993). It reads as follows:
Illegal drugs and the abuse of legal drugs in the workplace are a significant danger. They impair safety
and health, promote crime, lower productivity and quality and underline public confidence in the work
City employees undertake. The City prohibits drug and alcohol impairment and the illegal use of drugs
in the workplace. Under the federal and state Drug-Free Workplace Acts, 41 USC 701, et seq., and 30
ILCS 580/1 et seq., in order for the City to be considered a "reasonable source" for the award of federal
or state grants, it is appropriate to adopt the following policy:
Section 3.3.2 Definition and descriptions
Any location which City business is conducted, whether at this or any other site is declared to be a drug-
free workplace. All employees are absolutely prohibited from unlawfully manufacturing, distributing,
dispensing, possessing or unlawfully using controlled substances or alcohol, as defined in the federal
and state Drug-Free Workplace Acts, in the workplace. This policy does not apply to the lawful use of
prescription drugs under the supervision of a licensed healthcare professional and within the limits of a
valid prescription. An employee who has been prescribed drugs or who is taking over-the-counter
medications that come in containers with warnings about drowsiness or interference with the ability to
operate machinery, or drive safely, or otherwise perform their job duties is required to immediately
disclose to his or her immediate supervisor any medication-related work restrictions. When employees
disclose such medication related work restrictions they do not need to disclose the type of medications
that have been prescribed or the underlying medical conditions, impairments or disabilities unless
otherwise specifically directed to do so by their doctor or by their immediate supervisor that is not in
violation of any state or federal act..

them and what help is available to combat drug problems. Employees needing assistance in overcoming
drug abuse problems are encouraged to seek professional assessment, treatment support and aftercare at
appropriate outside agencies. Conscientious efforts to seek such help will not jeopardize any employees'
job nor will it be noted in any personnel record. However, referral to such programs in no way exempts
an employee from discipline for less than acceptable job performance.
Section 3.3.5 Employment condition
As a condition of initial and continued employment, each employee shall:
a. Agree in writing to abide by the terms of the City's policy respecting a drug and alcohol-
free workplace; and,
b. Agree, as required by law, to inform his or her supervisor of his or her conviction of any
criminal drug or alcohol Statute, for a violation occurring on or off City premises, while
conducting City business, no later than five (5) days after such a conviction. A conviction

sentence by a Judge or jury in any federal or state court, and/or a finding of Court
Supervision.

distribution of printed materials by non-employees is prohibited in work areas.
Section 3.6 Employee Performance Evaluation

Heads, and reported to the Mayor. Employees may be given more frequent evaluations as circumstances
warrant. A finding of satisfactory performance is needed for advancement on the wage scale.

not: 1) interfere with the performance of City duties; 2) present a potential conflict of interest; 3) result
in outside work being performed during an employee's work shift; 4) involve the use of city equipment
or supplies. Employees shall be permitted to engage in outside employment only with the prior written
approval of their Department Head. If granted permission for outside employment an employee's

conflicts with the standards set forth above. Employees who engage in outside employment shall notify
their Department Head of the addresses and phone numbers where they can be contacted, if necessary,
for their normal work schedule, of the name of their supervisor(if applicable), and of the type of work
they are (or will be) performing.
Section 3.8 Gifts and Gratuities
a. City services are not to be rendered by any employee with the expectation or in exchange
for any gift, gratuity, discount, reward, entertainment, hospitality, loan, forbearance, other
tangible or intangible item having monetary value. This policy prohibits the receipt of
gifts by the employee's spouse or an immediate family member living with the employee
from a "prohibited" source. In addition, all employees are required to comply with the
City's Ordinance#1999-12 (Appendix G) implementing the provisions of the State Gift
Ban Act. When an employee receives any offering as a result of his or her status as a
City employee, the offering must be immediately turned over to the City's Ethics Officer,

firearms, explosives, or other improper materials. To this end, the City prohibits the possession, sale,

data and messages.
Employees may only use e-mail for legitimate business-related communications in the course of their
assigned duties. No one may use e-mail to conduct personal business of any kind, including
downloading data from the Internet or from any other source for other than strictly work-related
purposes. All data of any nature that is entered or received through any City computer including all e-
mail messages are and will remain City property. None of the data or messages may be used for any

United City of Yorkville Employee Manual Final 02-10-04
Section 4.5.4 E-Mail may not be used to transmit disciplinary messages or statements
regarding individual employees.
All such negative messages must be kept strictly confidential and therefore may not be communicated
via e-mail in any form whatsoever. For many of the same reasons, performance evaluations may not be
conducted or transmitted via e-mail.
Section 4.5.5 Unauthorized access of e-mail, use of other employees' passwords and disclosure
of other employees' passwords is strictly prohibited.
Unauthorized use of codes or passwords intended to gain access to other employees' e-mail accounts is

any none city business calls they make which are charged to the City. This policy is subject to change,
as the City deems necessary.

1. Insubordination.
m. Any other reason as determined by a Supervisor, Department Head, or Mayor.
n. Failure to comply with established safety rules.
These examples are not all-inclusive, and other conduct not specifically covered above may result in
disciplinary action depending upon the circumstances.
Section 5.2 Discipline Procedure
The City is committed to assisting all employees who are not performing their job duties at expected
standards. The City shall take any or all of the following steps in developing a "remediation plan" for
employees with performance problems, although remediation may not be appropriate for all employees.
The City, in its discretion, will determine when remediation will be made available to an employee, as
well as what steps shall be included in a remediation plan.
5.2.1 Remediation
Notice and a chance to improve. Department Head shall inform the employee of his performance
problems or shortcomings, and provide a reasonable opportunity to improve.
Specific Information. Department Head shall let the employee know exactly what the problem is, and
set up an improvement program that calls for specific actions by stated deadlines. Furthermore, the
Department Head may recommend that the employee contact the Employee Assistance Program.
Maintenance of Records. Early warnings may take the form of verbal counseling; further warnings
shall be in writing and these warnings are performance based warnings. Department Head shall place
copies of any performance based warnings in the employee's personnel file. Employees shall be given
the opportunity to sign warnings. Signing does not constitute the acceptance of such warning, but
acknowledges employee is aware of the warning. Performance based warnings will be reviewed every
365 days or one year after issuance. If the employee has improved, the warning may be removed from
his/her file and sealed.
19
United City of Yorkville Employee Manual Final 02-10-04
Provide a reasonable time to improve. When setting the deadline for improvement, the Department
Head shall determine what would be a reasonable time considering the problem and circumstances.
5.2.2 Disciplinary Procedure
Procedure for Disciplinary Action or Terminated Review. All employees who have been notified of
performance problems and directed to improve and correct such problems may be subject to discipline
or discharge for the failure to do so or where further performance problems arise. Sworn employees are
subject to the requirements of the Board of Fire and Police Commissioners Act. An employee can be
suspended any time, with intent to discharge, without regard to the preceding steps, if he or she commits
an offense for which immediate discharge is specified as a penalty or if, in the Department Head's
judgment, the employee's continued presence would be contrary to the well being of the City or any of
its employees. Until action by the Mayor is taken the employee shall be suspended with pay. The
Mayor may seek advisory input from the City Council in regards to significant disciplinary action or
terminated review for full time employees before making final determination.
Purpose. The primary purpose of the disciplinary system is to correct improper behavior, not to impose
penalties. The City expects its Department Heads and Supervisors to recognize situations where
disciplinary measures are the most appropriate means to the end.
Perspective. Discharge is an ultimate means to correct a problem, when all else has failed. An
employee, whose behavior or poor performance is due to lack of knowledge or experience, should
receive training and assistance, not discipline.
First Violation. Counsel the employee and issue a verbal warning. The Department Head and/or
Supervisor shall notify the employee that he or she is receiving a formal warning. The Department Head
and/or Supervisor shall place an informal memo in the employee's history file with the employee's
knowledge. The Department Head and/or Supervisor shall also inform employee of the contents of that
memo.
Second Violation. The Department Head and/or Supervisor shall hold a meeting with the employee, at
which time the nature of the offense will be explained, and the employee shall be warned that any
repetition could lead to the suspension or discharge of the employee. The Department Head and/or
Supervisor shall offer help to the employee in solving the problem. A formal written warning shall be
issued concerning the prior incident. One copy shall be given to the employee and one copy shall be
placed in the employee's file.
Third Violation. The employee shall be suspended up to five (5) days without pay upon approval by
the City Administrator, Chief of Police or Executive Director of Parks and Recreation. The employee
shall be warned that a single further offense may be grounds for suspension up to thirty days or
discharge. Upon the third violation, the Mayor and City Council shall be notified.
Fourth Violation. The employee shall be given a suspension more than five (5) days up to thirty(30)
days or discharged, observing the procedures in this manual for processing an involuntary termination.
The Mayor, if time allows with advice from the City Council shall approve any suspension
recommended by the City Administrator, Chief of Police, or Executive Director of Parks and Recreation
that is more than five (5) days without pay.

procedure. If an employee has any complaint that cannot be handled orally by consultation with his
immediate supervisor, they may submit in writing within fifteen(15) calendar days, his grievance to
both the Department Head and the City Administrator, for review by the City Administrator. When the
City Administrator has reached a decision regarding the resolution of the problem a letter or memo shall
be sent back to the Department Head and to the employee within thirty(30) calendar days. In the event
the employee is not satisfied with the resolution proposed by the City Administrator,the employee may
request within twenty-one (2 1) calendar days an independent review by the Mayor. The Mayor will

condition; or(3) Employee Medical. Because of an employee's own serious health
condition which renders the employee unable to perform the functions of their position.

leave time or use of short-term disability does not extend the 12-week leave period.

disability leave policy and workers' compensation leave, if taken for an FMLA qualifying
serious health condition.
28
United City of Yorkville Employee Manual Final 02-10-04
b. If an employee takes vacation time/sick leave using salary continuation for a condition
that constitutes or progresses into a serious health condition, the City may designate all or
some portion of such leave as under this policy, to the extent that the paid leave meets the
necessary qualifications.
Section 7.10.5 Notice of Leave
If an employee's need for FMLA leave is foreseeable, the employee must give the City at least thirty
(30) days prior written notice. Failure to provide such notice may be grounds for delay of leave. Where
the need for leave is not foreseeable, the employee is expected to notify the City as soon as practicable,
generally within one to two business days of learning of the employee's need for leave. A request must
be made in writing on the City's forms (Appendix K), available in personnel.
Section 7.10.6 Medical Certification
If an employee is requesting Employee Medical or Family Medical Leave the employee and the relevant
health care provider must supply appropriate medical certification. The City will supply all employees
with medical certification forms. The medical certification must be provided within fifteen(15) days
after it is requested, or as soon as reasonable under the circumstances. Failure to provide requested
medical certification in a timely manner may result in denial of leave until it is provided. In its
discretion and at its own expense, the City may require a second medical opinion, and if the first and
second opinions differ, a third medical opinion. The third opinion will be provided by a health care
provider approved jointly by the employee and the City and will be binding. The City may also require
recertification periodically during a leave, and employees will be required to present a fitness-for-duty
certificate upon return to work following an employee medical leave.
Section 7.10.7 Medical and Other Benefits

make arrangements with the City to pay his/her portion of the premium. Group health
care coverage will cease if the employee's premium payment is more than thirty(30) days
late, but the employee will be notified at least fifteen(15) days before coverage lapses.
Additionally, if the employee fails to return from leave, the City will require repayment
of any premium that was paid for maintaining the health coverage for the employee,
unless the employee does not return because of a continuing or recurring serious health
condition of either the employee or a covered member, or because of other circumstances
beyond the employee's control. Employees are not entitled to other benefits or seniority
accrual during the FMLA leave.
b. Any changes in benefit plan provisions and costs may apply to individuals on FMLA
leave the same as if they were actively employed, according to the terms of the applicable
plan.

employment. The City may choose to exempt certain highly compensated ("key")
employees from this requirement and not return them to the same or similar position.
b. If you take an Employee Medical Leave, you will be required to provide medical
certification that you are fit to resume work. Employees failing to provide the Return to

APPENDIX F
UNITED CITY OF YORKVILLE DRUG-FREE WORKPLACE POLICY
DRUG-FREE WORKPLACE POLICY
Illegal drugs and the abuse of legal drugs in the workplace are a significant danger. They impair
safety and health,promote crime, lower productivity and quality and undermine public confidence
in the work City employees undertake. The City prohibits drug and alcohol impairment and the
illegal use of drugs in the workplace. Under the federal and state Drug-Free Workplace Acts, 41
USC 701, et seq.,and ill. Rev. Stat. 1992, ch. 127,par. 132.311 et seq., in order for the City to be
considered a"reasonable source" for the award of federal or state grants, it is appropriate to adopt
the following policy:
A. Any location in which City business is conducted,whether at this or any other site,

physical and mental condition to perform duties of their jobs.
C. Employees have the right to know the dangers of drug abuse in the workplace,the
City's policy about them and what help is available to combat drugs problems.
Employees needing assistance in overcoming drug abuse problems are encouraged
to seek professional assessment,treatment support and aftercare at appropriate
outside agencies. Conscientious efforts to seek such help will not jeopardize any
employees'job nor will it be noted in any personnel record. However,referral to
such programs in no way exempts an employee from discipline for less than
acceptable job performance.
D. As a condition of employment, each employee shall:
1. Agree in writing to abide by the terms of the Center's policy
respecting a drug and alcohol-free workplace; and
2. Agree, as required by law,to inform his or her supervisor of his or her
conviction of any criminal drug or alcohol Statute,for a violation occurring
on or off City premises, while conducting City business, no later than five
(5) days after such a conviction. A conviction means a finding of guilt
(including a plea of"no 10 contendere") or the imposition of a sentence by a
Judge or jury in any federal or state court, and/or a finding of Court
supervision.
E. An employee who violates the terms of this policy may be subject to
disciplinary action including suspension and/or termination.
1. The city shall take prompt disciplinary action with respect to any employee
who violates this policy. In any event,the City shall take disciplinary action
APPENDIX F
UNITED CITY OF YORKVILLE DRUG-FREE WORKPLACE POLICY
with an employee convicted of a drug offense in the workplace no later than
thirty(30) days after receiving notice of the conviction.

which the center is the prime grantee and a direct receiver of federal funds,
the City shall notify the appropriate federal agency from which the City

4. Operation of Emergency Vehicles
a. Police officers responsibility
1.) All sworn officers shall be familiar with and shall comply with all
sections of the state laws which apply to the operation of emergency
vehicles.
2.) The special privileges accorded by law to emergency vehicles are
only effective when the vehicle is readily identifiable as an
emergency vehicle.
3.) Unmarked police vehicles shall not be operated as an emergency
vehicle unless equipped with and utilizing a flashing red light and an
audible siren.
4.) Police officers assigned to emergency calls shall monitor their police
radios and shall acknowledge all communications conveyed to them
by the communications officer or supervisor in charge.
b. Assigned officer(s) shall respond to emergency calls rapidly but with a due
regard for the safety of life and property.
1.) Use of emergency lights: emergency lights shall be activated when
responding to emergency calls to avoid conflicts which may occur at
intersections, in heavy traffic, or in areas of restricted view.
2.) Use of siren: the siren shall be activated to avoid conflicts which may
occur at intersections, in heavy traffic, or in areas of restricted view.
3.) Speed: authorized vehicles shall not be operated at a speed that may
cause loss of control of the vehicle or endanger life or property.
Speed shall be reduced when approaching intersections and other
area of conflicts.
4.) Spotlight: spotlights on the police vehicle shall not be used as a
means for clearing traffic nor shall they be directed at windshields of
oncoming traffic. Spotlights shall not\be used in lieu of authorized
emergency lights.
C. Special considerations
1.) Upon approaching the immediate area of criminal activity, an officer
may avoid announcing his/her arrival by turning off .emergency
equipment and headlights at night, but only when such maneuvers
can be employed without endangering persons or property.
2.) Although adverse reaction may result from the use of sirens at night
in residential areas, the safety of the officer and the public is not
abridged by the time of day and far outweigh any inconvenience
which may occur.
5
APPENDIX I REVISED 2/10/04
UNITED CITY OF YORKVILLE VEHICLE POLICY
d. Supervisor's responsibility: The on duty supervisor shall monitor and
coordinate the assignment and response to emergency calls.
1.) Supervisors shall evaluate circumstances given which would justify
an emergency call assignment, assist communications officers in
evaluating such circumstances, and shall intervene when assignments
given by the communications officer do not correspond to the
circumstances.
2.) Supervisors shall monitor officer response to emergency calls to
ensure compliance with department policy, officer and public safety,
and efficient department response to emergency scenes.
5. Pursuit Driving
a. Department Position
1.) Law violators shall be pursued and apprehended whenever feasible
under existing circumstances. A pursuit shall be terminated
whenever the risks of the officer's safety of others, outweigh the
danger to the community if the suspect is not apprehended.
2.) Officers shall weigh the seriousness of the violator's suspected crime
against the potential for death or injury and the duration and the
overall distance that may be traveled if the pursuit continues.
3.) When attempting to stop an offender who has not begun to flee, the
police officer should try everything within his/her authority, keeping
in mind his/her personal safety, to apprehend the suspect without
resorting to a high-speed chase. This would include the use of the
public address system and/or the spotlight or waiting until the subject
parks or stops at traffic light before activating the light and/or siren.
b. Officers responsibility: the decision to begin, responsibility for continuation
and the method of pursuit rest primarily, but not solely with the individual
officer(s) involved. Although the law does not prevent officers from
exceeding the posted speed limit while engaged in pursuit, it does hold
officers criminally and civilly responsible for their actions.
1.) Only police vehicles equipped with audio and visual emergency
equipment shall enter into pursuit. It is the officer's duty to be
reasonably sure his/her police vehicle is mechanically sound before
entering into a pursuit.
2.) The pursuing officer has the responsibility to terminate a pursuit at
any time, if in the officer's judgment, the risks outweigh the
seriousness of the offense or if anyone's life is being unduly,
threatened by the act undertaken. The officer may terminate pursuit
without threat of any imposition of discipline or censure.
3.) The following should be considered.
a.) Is the pursuit undertaken with due regard for third parties?
b.) Does the seriousness of the crime warrant the pursuit?
c.) What is the likelihood of apprehension?
d.) What are the roadway,traffic, and pedestrian conditions?
e.) What are the weather conditions?
6
APPENDIX I REVISED 2/10/04
UNITED CITY OF YORKVILLE VEHICLE POLICY
f.) What is the geographical location, (residential, business,
commercial, school, etc.)?
C. State Law permits police officer who engages in a pursuit to, based upon the
reasonableness of their actions, exceed the speed limit and disregard other
traffic regulations.
d. Emergency lights and siren shall be activated during the pursuit to ensure
utmost safety to the officer and all others.
e. When approaching an intersection where signal lights or stop signs control
the flow of traffic,the officer shall:
1.) Decelerate and be prepared to apply brakes, stopping if necessary.
2.) Enter the intersection only when safe to precede and at a reduced rate
of speed so as to make cross traffic aware of the officer's presence.
3.) Resume pursuit speed only when safe to do so.
4.) Emergency lights and siren requests right-of-way and does not afford
absolute right to disregard traffic signals or devices (red lights, stop
signs, etc. )
f. Officers who become engaged in a pursuit shall notify communications of
the following, as soon as it is practical to do so:
1.) Suspect vehicle license plate number.
2.) Starting location and direction of travel.

vehicle being pursued or into any position or potential collision with a
pursued vehicle.

i. Officers shall not continue pursuit into another jurisdiction without advising
communications.
1.) Whenever possible, the Illinois State Police Emergency Network
(ISPERN) shall be used during the pursuit.
j. Officers shall not pursue a fleeing vehicle that leaves the roadway without
permission from a duty supervisor.
k. Assisting officer(s): all other members of the department shall refrain from
entering an ongoing pursuit unless directly assigned by communications or a
duty supervisor.

pass the primary pursuit unit unless requested to do so by the primary
pursuit unit.
2.) Caravanning behind the pursued vehicle is discouraged. Whenever
possible assisting units should try and parallel the pursued unit on a
side street.
7
APPENDIX I REVISED 2/10/04
UNITED CITY OF YORKVILLE VEHICLE POLICY
3.) Officers should exercise discretion in radio usage so that the radio
airway can be kept open for the primary pursuit unit.
1. Supervisor responsibility: the on duty supervisor upon being advised of or
becoming aware of a pursuit shall be responsible for the following:
1.) The number of personnel assigned to the pursuit, allowing for proper
police coverage throughout the remained of the city.
2.) Monitoring the pursuit's beginning and continuing locations.
3.) Ordering termination of the pursuit to prevent risk and to ensure the
safety of others, the public and the violator(s). Termination of a

requirements listed in the Illinois Vehicle Code (Chapter 95 1/2),
Section 11-205b which sets forth the parameters within which
emergency and pursuit driving can take place.
4.) Officers shall adequately report all elements and facts of the pursuit,
.making sure to document a description of the emergency vehicle, the
nature and severity of the emergency or violation and all due caution
afforded to unintended third parties or property.
n. Roadblocks
1.) Under certain circumstances,the blocking or barricading of roadways
by means of police vehicles, barriers or obstacles may become
necessary. Since there are legal consequences and inherent dangers
associated with this course of action, roadblocks must be undertaken
with due regard for the safety of third parities as well as the fleeing
motorist.

may be laid off in the order of their relative length and quality of service. However,
careful consideration shall be given to maintaining a work force reflecting the needs of
the community. The City expressly reserves the right to make layoffs in any order.
Employees shall be notified in writing at least fourteen (14) days before their separation,
or in lieu of notice a minimum of two (2) weeks severance pay shall be granted to the
employee. Additional severance packages maybe given at the discretion of the Mayor
with the advice of the City Council. Reasons for selecting the employees to be separated
shall be documented and maintained on file to support action taken. In the event of a
layoff, employees laid off shall be placed on a preferential hiring list for a period of no
less than two (2) years. Re-hiring shall be in reverse order of separation,providing that
the employee laid off has the skills and ability for the job to be filled. No employee may
be reduced in rank, pay, or title for any reason other than disciplinary reasons. Reduction
of rank, pay, or title requires 2/3 vote of the City Council for all employees.

Background
This item was requested by Alderwoman Spears at the July 26, 2011 City Council meeting.
This item was last discussed by the City Council on October 26, 2010. The discussion at that meeting
was to repeal the 3% amusement tax in total, which failed by a 5-4 vote.
Staff recommendation—executive summary
Staff strongly recommends leaving the amusement tax in place as the businesses that provide
amusements have a unique good or service that do not generate sales taxes, and often the amusements
are a greater burden on City resources than other businesses. Also, the largest majority of amusement
taxes come from Raging Waves, which itself has a customer base that is primarily non-Yorkville
residents—which means that most of the amusement tax is being paid by non-residents. Finally, the
City no longer receives a portion of the admissions tax, which means the amusement tax is the only
revenue other than property tax being received by the City from Raging Waves.
Recap, amusement tax ordinance
The ordinance imposes a 3% amusement tax on all amusement and amusement devices in the
City. The ordinance defines amusement devices as "all mechanical devices of entertainment and games
of skill or amusement...including: video games, arcade games, billiards and pool tables, pinball games,
virtual reality games and computerized games." In short, amusement devices are arcade games and
other arcade-like devices. Amusements are defined as "all participatory, spectator, exhibitive diversions
and entertainments...including: theatrical, dramatic, musical or spectacular performance; motion picture
show; flower, poultry or animal show; carnival; amusement park rides; animal acts; circuses, rodeos,
athletic contests and sports or games...". In short, amusements are anything that can be rented to take to
a party, and any ticket you would pay to see a movie, play, or sporting event.
The ordinance requires the amusement to be collected from the user of the amusement, not from
the business profiting from the amusement. The business must only collect the tax and remit it to the
City every month, with provisions to delay payment if the amount of amusement tax collect is minimal.
The amusement tax does not apply to non-profit and governmental entities.
Budgetary impact of repeal of the amusement tax
The yearly budgetary impact of repealing the amusement tax is $134,000 in FY 13 and likely to
increase substantially each year going forward. Most of the amusement tax will be generated by Raging
Waves, which has had significant increases in the amount of tickets sold each year, and of which more
than 50% of their revenues are derived from people from outside of Yorkville. With Raging Waves
potential growth in the future, the impact of repeal of the amusement tax could be two to three times the
current amount. Finally, with the partial repeal of the admissions tax for Raging Waves (done at City
Council on July 26t), a repeal of the amusement tax would leave no City tax revenue from ticket sales at
Raging Waves.
From a larger perspective, it is doubtful the City will be able to afford Route 47 construction and
River Road bridge construction if the amusement tax is repealed.
Cost of service vs. taxes generated by the use
Some of the more unique amusements in the City create issues for staff that are much more time
intensive than other businesses. For example, Raging Waves is one of the largest tourist attractions in
the immediate area. On any given day, there are close to 1,000 cars and 3,000 visitors to the park.
While Raging Waves has been particularly good at providing security on their property, there are
impacts on City services associated with the crowds that are far beyond most other businesses in the
City. Another smaller example is Parfection Park. Due to its use, we take more complaints about the
business than most other businesses in that area. In the past year alone, we have had dozens of
conversations with the management at the facility, the owner, and the surrounding residents about
various issues at the Park. While the business owner has been diligent in reducing those complaints, it
still takes staff time to resolve the complaints—and without the amusement tax, there is no revenue
generated in the facility other than property tax. While both Raging Waves and Parfection Park pay
property taxes to the City, the ratio of services provided to taxes received is much higher than other
businesses in the City(if the amusement tax is factored out of the comparison). Again, the amusements
that are taxed under the amusement tax do not have sales taxes put upon them. So, if the amusement tax
is repealed those uses will generate no tax revenue for the City.

Executive Summary
Staff is asking for reaffirmation from the Administration Committee that professional
development opportunities which are budgeted for FY 12 may be completed, and presentation of
a potential option for the IML conference.
Staff professional development
As part of the FY 12 budget approval, there was money appropriated in each department
for training and conferences. Some of the training and conferences will meet requirements for
job certifications and professional standards, and others will be for general education and
training as items come up. Before expenses for airline tickets, hotel rooms, management
seminars, etc. show up on the bill list, staff wanted to reaffirm the City Council's commitment to
professional development for staff. In many cases, City staff has not attended professional
conferences and seminars for the past four years. While we will always make every attempt to
stay current on best practices and procedures through other methods, there is no quicker way to
educate an employee by sending them to a national or state conference and immersing them in
professional development seminars for a continuous 48 or 72 hours.
Examples of professional development opportunities we are asking the City Council to
reaffirm are:
1) Example of requirement for mandatory certification
a. Illinois Parks and Recreation Association State Conference for Superintendent of
Recreation Tim Evans and Recreation Coordinator Shay Rosborough.
b. Held in Chicago each year, this is the largest Parks and Recreation conference
held in the Midwest. Both Tim and Shay have a CPRP certification(required by
their job description) that obligates them a certain amount of professional
development each year. They can both satisfy an entire year's worth of
professional development standards over a 3 day period. Tim and Scott Sleezer
attended this conference last year.
c. Cost- $600 per person
2) Example of requirement for non-mandatory certification
a. International City/County Management Conference for City Administrator Bart
Olson
b. Held in locations around the country and this year in Milwaukee, this is the
largest city management conference in the country. I have a"credential manager
candidate" certification through ICMA, which is the industry standard for city
managers. The CM-candidate certification is not required by my job description—
it is something I voluntarily undertook to demonstrate my commitment to an
ongoing education. The City benefits from this certification through me, both in
knowledge I obtain and by showing residents that we are committed to run a
professional and efficient organization. The four day conference can satisfy an
entire year's worth of professional development. Since it is being held in
Milwaukee, it is cheaper for me to attend this year than in following years (I can
drive to Milwaukee). The last time I attended the ICMA national conference was
in 2007, when it was in Pittsburgh. Attendance at the ICMA annual conference is
discussed in my employment contract, as long as expenses are budgeted each
year.
c. Cost - $1450 ($650 for fees, $800 for hotel)
3) Examples of general training, not tied to certifications
a. Payroll seminar for Accounting Clerks
i. Discuss the latest reporting requirements in the payroll field from new
1099 reporting requirements, Health Care Reform impact on payroll
reporting, etc.
ii. Cost - $75
b. Advanced Governmental Accounting Seminar for Finance Director
i. Explore the ramifications of recently enacted GASB pronouncements,
discuss GASB's future pronouncements, learn how to implement GASB
44 economic condition reporting, etc.
ii. Cost - $250 (two-days)
c. Document retention policy seminar for Clerk's Office
i. Discuss the latest best practices for document retention, review of new
Illinois laws, review of new technology.
ii. Cost - $200 (per person)
Non-staff professional development
The IML conference is professional development for elected officials. While the City
Council removed funding for the IML Conference, I believe that we could get the costs of
registration for each elected official covered through a donation to the City. Travel and lodging
costs would have to be borne by each individual. Specific seminars at the IML Conference that I
would recommend as beneficial to each elected official are:
1) Municipal participation in environmental clean-up and remediation
a. Applicable in our downtown TIF
2) Repositioning and negotiating land-use issues
3) Pension reform—are more reforms coming?
4) New life for trouble subdivisions
a. Attorney Orr and Attorney Binninger are speaking on this panel!
5) Effective performance measurements for local government
6) Privatization, shared services, and mutual aid agreements
7) Hitting the target: How to develop and implement a successful retail recruitment strategy
for your community
8) Preventing Violence Against Public Officials: Stop the Insanity Before it Begins!
9) Strategies, Practices & Technologies of Electronic Government
10)Managing Critical Performance and Employment Issues With High Level Municipal
Employees (PART 1 and 2)
11)The Nuts and Bolts of Community Surveying
12)Home Rule vs. Non-Home Rule: The Pros and Cons of Each
13)Best Practices and Budgeting Techniques for the "New Normal"

Subject: Citizen service survey

Executive Summary
A proposal to complete an online, comprehensive survey of residents about all
components of the City and its services, for less than $500 in hard costs and a few dozen hours of
staff time.
Background
Over the past several months, different committees have discussed gathering public input
on different City topics. Just last month, at both Administration and Public Works committee
meetings, the committee members suggested that a survey be conducted in the near future.
During the brief discussion at the Administration Committee about how to conduct the survey,
the committee members ruled out a mailed survey, due to cost and administrative difficulty. The
last time a comprehensive survey was conducted by the City was in 2007/2008, for Parks and
Recreation services. At that time, the City paid Northern Illinois University$10,000 to do create
the survey and then execute the survey through mail and telephone.
Structure of the survey
There are several online survey websites that would fit our needs. Staff will do further
research to pick a particular vendor—but all can be done for less than $500 in subscription costs.
With a web survey, we are able to assign each water billing customer a random password, which
will allow the customer to log into the survey website and conduct the survey. This guarantees
we are only hearing from each household once. Specific arrangements at the Library and City
Hall could be made for those without internet access, by printing on the utility bill hours of
computer availability at both locations.
Ouestions on the survey
By studying surveys completed in other cities, and by doing online research on proper
question phrasing, I am confident we can create a survey which yields reliable, valid data.
However, I do not have an estimate for when a survey could be completed, until we have a better
idea of the types of topics we want to include within the survey.
Survey topics the staff came up with in a brainstorming session (and prior to any detailed
analysis of survey questions in other cities) are:
1) Priority for expenses related to algaeside in City-controlled detention basins?
2) What was the resident's feedback on our building permit turnaround? A contractor's
feedback?
3) What was the resident's feedback on the ease of use for permit forms? A contractor's
feedback?
4) How easy are our development applications to use?
5) How do residents view the ease of use of our variance process?
6) How do residents rate our current parks maintenance standards? How do residents rate
our past parks maintenance standards?
7) How do residents rate our quality and quantity of recreation programming? What classes
are we missing?
8) Do residents support additional funds to be spent on enforcement of weed complaints?
9) Would residents use electronic services?
a. recreation programming registration?
b. Utility billing service expansion(online accounts,usage, payment)
c. Online FOIA database?
d. Online ordinances and resolution database?
10)How often do residents use our website compared to other press outlets? Do they like our
website design?
11)If you are a REC Center member, how important is the location of the REC Center? If
we were to change locations, would you still use the REC Center?
12)Special Events
a. Hometown Days quality?
b. Holiday Under the Stars?
c. Music Under the Stars?
d. National Night Out
e. 5k runs
13)Should the City fund construction of a Kennedy Road bike trail, if we have a grant and
that road will connect us to the Chicago trail system?
14)What are the biggest issues with unfinished subdivisions?
15)If you have an SSA, how has your interaction with the City's SSA administrators been?
Staff?
16)Rate the services of the staff of different departments you have had contact with:
a. Admin
b. Finance
c. City Hall Front desk
d. Clerk's Office
e. Public Works
i. Streets
ii. Water
iii. Sewer
f. Police
i. Front desk staff
ii. Officers
iii. Supervisors
g. Planning
h. Building and Zoning
17)How do residents like our current service level for snow plowing?
a. Would they support additional funding for more responsive service?
b. Would they be ok with a lower service level, if funds could be moved elsewhere?
c. Should we start plowing immediately as soon as it snows, and keep plowing until
we have dry pavement?
d. Only start after 2"of snow?
18)Foreclosures—have you been impacted by foreclosures in the neighborhood?
19)Have you used the REC Center in the past six months?
a. Are you a member?
b. Are you using it in another capacity?
20)How often do you use parks?
21)How often do you use recreation programming?
22)What is your perception of crime in the City?

business of the meeting. Chairman and vice-chairman shall serve two year
appointments. Chairs, vice-chairs, and committee rosters shall be filled through

chairmanships shall be vacated. The four vice-chairmen shall each select

selection and progressing to the next most senior alderman, and so on.
After the chairmanships have been selected, the four non-chaired aldermen
shall each select a committee to vice-chair, with the most senior alderman
having the first selection, and progressing to the next most senior

consecutive committee chairs, those aldermen shall select
committee chairs in order according to seniority, but after the
group of alderman who have not served-consecutive committee
chairs have selected.
ii. Should there be a vacancy in the office of an alderperson, the
alderperson appointed to such vacancy shall take the committee
position held by his or her predecessor; provided, however, if the

chair shall complete the term of the chair which was vacated and
retain eligibility for a committee chairmanship for the next
succeeding term.
IV. Shall control the movement of items from committee agendas to City Council
agendas. Items may not move out of committee but for a vote of approval by a
majority of the quorum present. When passing items out of committee, where the
committee reasonably believes that if the items are approved by the City Council,
the impacts of that approval could significantly impact many residents, the item
should first be listed on the City Council agenda under the committee report
section and listed as being for first reading. The City Council at its discretion
may waive a first reading if they deem it desirable. Items for first reading are
intended to give notice to the public that a substantial change is being
contemplated and the City Council will be taking input and considering the item
at their next scheduled City Council meeting. For items forwarded to the City
Council which are not expected to have as significant an impact should be
recommended for placement on the consent agenda. Items for first reading do not
literally have to be read into the record at the city council meeting, placement on
agenda is sufficient. When an item is listed for first reading the chairman should
explain the item being proposed and that the City Council is seeking input from
the public to aid them in the decision making process.
