Subject: In-Town Road Program Phase 2— Supplemental Engineering Agreement
Attached find one copy of a proposed supplemental engineering agreement with Smith
Engineering for the In-Town Road Program. This agreement in the amount of$14,280 is
for design engineering needed to add Mill Street from Fox to Washington to the project.
The original project stopped the Mill Street reconstruction at Fox Street. Upon further
consideration, we would like to extend the project one more block to address a severe
drainage problem along the west side of the road.The estimated cost of construction is
about$80,000. The engineering work increases the total cost to about$100,000.
This issue was discussed at the January 9`h Public Works Committee meeting. The
comrnittee recommended that this one block of road be added to the project if the funding
could be worked out.
Please place this item on the January 17, 2006 Committee of the Whole meeting for
consideration.

Subject: Policy for Private Improvements in City Right of Way, Tree Removal
In follow up to the discussion at COW,please find attached both a redline and clean copy of the
Agreement.
The revisions are as follows:
1. Par. 2: deleted"permanent(masonry) mailboxes" from the list of examples of
improvements that would be considered. This was requested by the Director of Public Works.
2. Par. 7: deleted"submitted with the request"and replaced with"approved by the City"to
make certain that only approved improvements will be constructed.
3. Par. 6: New paragraph,pursuant to request by the City Engineer to clarify that the
improvement in the Right of Way becomes the property of the City. If modified or removed,the
cost will be borne by the City (if a permit had been obtained prior to the improvement), and by
the land owner if no permit had been obtained.
3. Par. 8: Clarification pursuant to the Mayor's concerns that the City is taking a position to
never remove trees. This clarification"Regarding any citizen request for voluntary removal of
trees"distinguishes this policy from tree removals at the city's discretion.
The revised policy now contains all changes that have been suggested and is appropriate for your
approval.

Date: January 23,2006
To: Mayor and Aldermen
From: John Justin Wyeth, City Attorney
Subject: Southwest Interceptor—Contract I with Walter E. Deuchler Assoc, Inc., Section 3.9
In response to the discussion of this contract at COW, I called Mr. Phillipe Moreau, P.E. to
discuss Section 3.9 with him.
He explained that when providing Construction Services, an engineering firm will from time to
time find need to use outside consultants (often specializing in a particular field of expertise).
In this particular contract, soil borings may become necessary. The charge of 8%of the cost of
obtaining the borings and opinions would compensate Deuchler for review of the findings and
follow up discussions with the soil boring company.
It would appear reasonable and appropriate for an engineering firm to be compensated in this
manner for this type of work on the City's behalf.
Additionally, Mr. Moreau pointed out, and I concur that:
1. The fee covered by Section 3.9 falls under the "not to exceed"amount of$131,500. It is
not an additional charge above the base.
2. As you might expect,this provision is found in many engineering service contracts, and
is a necessary and expected form of compensation.
In conclusion, Section 3.9 is a necessary, expected and appropriate provision for this form of
contract which should remain within the agreement.

ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE REPORT
Ordinance 2005-089 Tax Levy
(ADM 2005-01)
Mayor Prochaska noted that as this was not discussed at the last COW meeting and that a
majority vote was needed to announce the City's intention for a levy. He stated that the
Administration Committee recommended that the tax levy amount be$2,049,505.64. He
explained that the recommended amount is based on the maximum amount that the City is able to
access based on the current estimates for Equalized Assessed Value(EAV)and the limitations of
the tax cap. He noted that this is not the amount that he recommended;he recommended that the
levy's amount be$2,035,873.26 based on the same formula the City bas used for the last six
years. The difference between the two mounts is$13,632.38. He opened the floor for
discussion.
Alderman Ohms stated that the Administration Committee discussed the Tax Levy,along with
the City Treasurer and they are recommending the higher amount. She stated that personally she
felt that with the upcoming school referenda the City should approve the lesser amount.
The Minutes of the Reeular Meetine of the City Council—November 22.2005—page 8
City Treasurer Powell stated that at the Administration Committee meeting he recommended the
higher amount and even though the reasons he gave the committee for this are still valid,in light
of Wal-Mart announcing a new store in Yorkville,he would also support the lower amount.
Alderman Wolfer thanked Treasurer Powell and Finance Director Pleckham for explaining the
levy to him. He stated that he had a problem with the higher amount because it affected senior
citizens. He stated there are businesses coming into Yorkville that he felt would balance out the
difference.
Alderman Besco asked if there were long-term repercussions for not levying the higher amount.
Treasurer Powell explained that the tax cap limits the amount of new taxes that can be increased
each year and the cap is based on existing residences. He stated that if it is limited today,it
cannot be increased more in the future years. He stated that there was a"snow-balling"effect to
future years and that is why he originally supported the higher amount. Alderman Besco
expressed his concern that while Wal-Mart has announced their arrival,the economy could
change and they may not come.
Alderman Burd questioned if there was abatement if the City does not want the whole amount of
the levy. Director Pleckham explained that she believed that when the county sends the actual
levy amount in March,the City has to sign-off on the extended amount. Mayor Prochaska added
that the City cannot extend the amount more than for what it has asked for. He stated that if the
City Council wants to vote for a lesser amount it would be done when the levy ordinance is voted
on. He explained that a few years ago,the City received the final amount from the county and
because the tax cap was lower,the City did not get the amount it asked for. Director Pleckham
further explained that last year,the City used a higher EAV than actual and received less tax
dollars than anticipated. The lower amount affected the library and police.
Alderman Bard discussed that possibility that the library would be over budget and the City was
trying to make up the difference. She asked if this would be a problem this year. Director
Pleckham stated that the Library Levy will deal with this. She explained that the library rate will
be higher than the normal annual rate to be applied to the bond for the reconstruction. Director
Pleckham stated that the City's tax levy will not affect the library levy.
Aldermen Munns and Leslie both stated they supported the lower amount.
A motion was made by Alderman Ohare to approve the Tax Levy in the estimated amount of
$2,035,873.26 for the year 2005;seconded by Alderman Wolfer.
Motion approved by a roll call vote. Ayes-7 Nays-0

Library Levy
(ADM 2005-10)
Director Pleckham stated that this is an information item. The library will not abate their tax rate
as it relates to the expansion construction. It is based on a dollar amount not the rate,
The City Council had no comments or questions on this item.
Ordinance 2005-90 Establishing Special Service Area Number 2004-107
Raintree Village H
(ADM 2005-15)
A motion was made by Alderman James to approve an ordinance establishing Special Service
Area Number 2004-107(Raintree Village II);seconded by Alderman Ohare.
Alderman Bard noted that the Special Service Area was part of the original Amexation
Agreement and is nothing new. Alderman Manna asked what the consequences would be if the
SSA was voted down and Attorney Wyeth stated the City would be in breach of contract.

Council meeting agenda

City Development Director

recommendations for the City Development Director to him. He has scheduled interviews with
the three recommended candidates and he hoped he would have something further to report to the
Council next month.
Meeting Consolidation
Alderman Wolfer asked if the City Council could discuss at an upcoming COW meeting
streamlining the committees as Dr.Wood suggested;a three meeting concept with two COW
meeting and a City Council meeting. Alderman Burd stated that this is under discussion by the
Ad Hoc committee and Drs.Wood and Gabris have been invited to attend to further discuss how
_ to implement this. The date of the meeting is pending the availability of the doctors. Alderman
Wolfer stated that this concept needs to be implemented because lie felt there were too many
meetings each month. Alderman Leslie asked if this concept would eliminate all the committees
and Mayor Prochaska stated that this was one of the recommendations.

14 WHEREUPON :
15 RICH GUERARD,
16 testified before the Yorkville City Council as
17 follows :
18 MR . GUERARD : Good evening,
19 everyone . Rich Guerard from Wyndham Deerpoint
20 Homes . We are partners and developer and
21 actually are the owner of this property, and as
22 the mayor had stated, we are seeking annexation
23 and zoning, which is what is up for tonight .
24 I thought I ' d also show you,
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 983- 0030
5
1 since a part of that would actually be the
2 preliminary plat and the project itself, briefly
3 describe the project and explain maybe where some
4 — of the differences are now.
5 It ' s been before you a couple
6 of times . The plan is consistent with the City ' s
7 Comprehensive Plan, it was consistent with the
8 concept plan, it was approved before, it went
9 before the Development Committee .
10 We are not seeking any
11 variances from the ordinances , so it ' s presented
12 as a PUD because there is a commercial component
13 that I can talk about .
14 I think one of the things --
15 You will see two plans here that I ' m showing, and
16 the reason I wanted to show that, the bottom plan
17 is what ' s been presented to the Planning
18 Commission before and what was consistent with
19 the concept plan that you had seen before .
20 We are also proposing some
21 modifications of that based on the hearings that
22 we ' ve had before the City and some of the
23 comments between various Staff and neighbors and
24 other people and have tried to accommodate some
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 983-0030
6
1 of their concerns .
2 So I would like to explain some
3 of the changes that we made last time in response
4 to this so that you can see that, and I ' ll keep
5 it brief and answer any questions that you may
6 have .
7 A few changes that we have made
8 to this plan -- and we have commonly called it
9 the Chally property. It was made up of a portion
10 of the Chally farm and also part of the Anderson
11 farm. Everything was north of 71 .
12 And then the commercial area
13 over in the corner, there was some concern
14 particularly by a neighbor here that this
15 commercial piece was too close . You ' ll see that
16 we have modified this portion of this .
17 Mr . Chally has retained this
18 property, approximately five acres , so that
19 parcel is not being rezoned commercial and
20 remains a part of his -- of his . farm.
21 Now, north of that is our lots
22 and then that ' s the cemetery to the north . That
23 commercial area is a little bit smaller than it
24 was before, a little more compact, which we do
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 983-0030
7
1 think better fits the area and what is there .
2 The neighbors in this section
3 had a number of concerns , principally four
4 concerns, that we have tried to address .
5 One of them had to do with
6 stormwater, which they are concerned about
7 because of some flooding that occurs on their
8 properties .
9 We have got along further in
10 the engineering and so we decided, you can see
11 that there is another detention area that ' s right
12 here to address some of these areas , and we
13 continue to work with that .
14 The property will be designed
15 with all of the county ' s and the city ' s
16 stormwater ordinances and be reviewed by all the
17 engineers , the consulting, the city engineers ,
18 our engineers , so we will be complying with all
19 of the stormwater issues and concerns .
20 Another concern was this
21 connection . You see here that we had originally
22 proposed a connection into the existing street of
23 this subdivision, and there was a lot of concern
24 and really I would say objection about that, by
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 983-0030
8
1 the existing homeowners .
2 In reviewing it , I think we
3 have six other entrances into this subdivision .
4 We didn ' t see any reason why we needed a road
5 that goes through their subdivision, so that ' s
6 been taken out . That no longer is existing in
7 there .
g We feel like there is plenty of
9 access . This has an access to the north through
10 this subdivision, there is another access on
11 Pavillion, there is two accesses onto Route 71 ,
12 in addition to the other future ones that have
13 been planned . So that ' s been removed .
14 And the final concern that was
15 raised was the size of the lots . They were
16 interested in seeing larger lots . This is a
17 county subdivision with lots I think that go
Is anywhere from an acre to two or two and a half
19 acres , depending upon whether it ' s a pie-shaped
20 lot .
21 And we had larger, deeper lots
22 there, but now what we have done, we have gone
23 through and taken out more lots , and these lots
24 that all abut that subdivision are a minimum of
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 983-0030
9
1 20 , 000 square feet , and their average is about
2 24 , 000 square feet, so they are really
3 estate-sized lots , for -- well , for a sewer and
4 water lot , an average of 24 , 000 square feet is
5 pretty large lots , and they are also a minimum of
6 200 feet deep, so they are deeper than our normal
7 lots that we have . Our normal lots would be from
8 125 to 150 , and these are 200 .
g The rest of the lots we see
10 here , these are 90-feet widths , and these small
11 ones here are 12 , 000 square -- I mean, 80 foot,
12 but they all exceed 12 , 000 square feet . And I
13 think the average among those lots is like 14 , 000
14 square feet .
15 So, once again, we are not
16 looking for any type of variances from lot sizes ,
17 significantly larger than your requirements on
18 average .
19 We have a few other things , one
20 is this park . You ' ll see the park is here . We
21 had three lots along the north edge of the park
22 up here . We decided to go ahead and take those
23 out, although the Park District didn ' t ask us to,
24 it makes a larger park . It ' s increased it by
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 983-0030
10
1 about 50 percent , and now we don ' t have lots
2 backing up , it ' s all street sided .
3 One of the advantages that
4 gives is parking . When people -- As you know,
5 when the parks get active , people can park all
6 along there . We don ' t have any loaded lots on
7 that park, it ' s all single loaded, and there will
8 be able to be much more parking and ease of use .
9 This is also another park down
10 here , we talked to the Park District about it .
11 It contains some trees and has some usable park
12 space and then some has trees , so we are going to
13 get a mixed credit from that , but we have kept
14 that park in that location also . So I think
15 that ' s a pretty good summary .
16 I mean, we ' ve kept -- You don ' t
17 see it here very well , but there is planned a
18 trail system that takes it all the way through
19 the property . It ' s the same as that you saw
20 before .
21 It will connect the property
22 that we are going to talk about next to the south
23 and also connects to the property to the north .
24 And I think in summary that ' s
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 983- 0030
11
1 it . I ' d be happy to it answer any questions that
2 you might have . As I said, I know it ' s for
3 annexation and zoning, not for preliminary plat ,
4 but I wanted to show you where we are at in the
5 current proposals .
6 MAYOR PROCHASKA: I ' d open the floor
7 to anyone that would like to come forward and
8 question the petitioner or give comment to City
9 Council . Please come forward, state your name .
10 WHEREUPON :
11 RANDY SCOTT,
12 testified before the Yorkville City Council as
13 follows :
14 MR . SCOTT : My name is Randy Scott ,
15 I live at 45 Highview Drive . Some of you have
16 seen me here before , some of you may not .
17 I ' m sure you recall the
18 petition; I don ' t know how many people got the
19 petition that we delivered to the Plan
20 Commission . If anybody needs a copy of it , I
21 have it . All of the homeowners that adjoin this
22 property -- I shouldn ' t say all of them .
23 Rephrase that, a majority of them, and they were
24 here at the first Plan Commission meeting .
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 983-0030
12
1 Unfortunately the timing
2 tonight of this meeting doesn ' t allow for all of
3 our friends to be here , but we support them .
4 So does anybody need a copy of
5 that or did you all get a copy?
6 MR . WOLFER : I ' d like a copy .
7 MAYOR PROCHASKA : We need to put a
8 copy to the clerk for the minutes .
9 MR . SCOTT : You will note in
10 reviewing these that everybody -- well , most --
I1 here again, let me correct my language . I ' m
12 sorry .
13 Most everybody that adjoined
14 these property -- this property here has signed
15 that . We are opposed to the density . We are
16 concerned about the run-off .
17 Yes , they have addressed some
18 of the issues , there is no question about that ,
19 and for that we give thanks . We appreciate that .
20 But you check the addresses
21 there . I don ' t know if anybody ever has the time
22 or if you go through and do all that . You will
23 see what we are talking about .
24 One concern I have that I ' d
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 983-0030
13
1 like to show on this map is I live right here at
2 45 Highview, and these lots are going to have to
3 be scooted over a little because I personally
4 have a 940-foot easement down here that ' s 22 feet
5 long . That ' s going to affect the backup of these
6 lots .
7 Now, earlier we had talked
8 about the possibilities of putting a berm in
9 there between those . We also talked larger lots .
10 Yes , they increased the lot sizes . That ' s great .
11 Many concerns , though . We ' ve
12 got these size lots with these backing up . The
13 infrastructure, I just don ' t -- We are concerned
14 about being able to handle all the roads .
15 As you know, Yorkville is
16 getting to be -- Yorkville is booming, okay? We
17 can ' t handle the traffic we ' ve got . The density
18 that we are putting in the town here and
19 everything we ' re doing, our roads are just
20 over-burdened .
21 This commercial area, yes ,
22 that ' s been corrected, but we ' ve got another
23 development going up here where there is homes
24 going in . We have got the fairgrounds up here .
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630) 983-0030
14
1 I would like the Council to
2 consider rethinking how some of this stuff is
3 going to wrap around there .
4 Once again, we talked about
5 drainage, we talked about larger lot sizes . They
6 did change the through streets .
7 Some of these other
8 subdivisions , now I know that coming up in this
9 across the road there is going to be one-acre
10 home sites . Why can ' t we have one-acre home
11 sites on our side of the road?
12 Drainage , I don ' t know if any
13 of you saw the drainage situation . I won ' t pull
14 these out unless there is a need to . Has
15 everybody seen the pictures of the water? If you
16 have not, I think that you should see them.
17 If I may here . Now,
18 unfortunately, I don ' t have good pictures of
19 everybody ' s property, but the waters flow through
20 there pretty rapidly .
21 It is good to see this here ,
22 that they have corrected some of that there .
23 There is tons of water that comes through here,
24 but now when you get down here and you open these
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 983-0030
15
1 creeks or these -- they drain off into the creek,
2 that creek needs to be cleaned out . That creek
3 is plugged all the way to the river . That ' s
4 another reason we flood out there .
5 So if we put these in here and
6 we overflow into the creek and you follow that on
7 down to the river, that ' s part of the reason we
8 flood. The other reason is because of the tiles
9 in the field and such out here .
10 Our concern is with this
11 density, with the asphalt , the concrete , the
12 homes , the development , that there ' s going to be
13 more of a problem.
14 This was 2004 . Water
15 completely circled my house, and I live very high
16 up here by the cemetery . There was run-off
17 through here , circled around my house , blew the
18 basement window out . I had four inches of water
19 in my basement . I can pass these around if you
20 like .
21 And this is down -- this is
22 down at the end of the subdivision where that
23 road was going to go through right down in here .
24 I mean, we have nothing but
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 983-0030
16
1 floods . Nothing but floods . So I ask that if
2 you do approve this , should you approve this , you
3 take a look at all these things . You look at
4 this very carefully .
5 You come out there on a rainy
6 day . It is just unbelievable . The creek is
7 going to have to be cleaned out before you put
8 this in . It ' s full of trees . It ' s a mess . The
9 Fox Road there , it ' s terrible . It ' s terrible .
10 Don ' t get me wrong , we like it
11 there, but I don ' t know, just many, many , many
12 issues .
13 Shadow Creek, Schaefer Woods ,
14 there is plenty of places around, you all know
15 the areas , they ' ve all got large lots .
16 I feel we ' re going the right
17 direction, I think they have made some positive
18 steps with the changes , I don ' t want to discredit
19 anything that they have done , but I just ask that
20 ' you consider all these things .
21 And really, really what would
22 be ideal , put yourself in some of these people ' s
23 spot , you know? You ' ve got one-acre lots or two
24 in some cases , these lots up here are larger
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 983-0030
17
1 backed up to this .
2 How about a berm there? What ' s
3 going to happen to my easement that I have?
4 That ' s recorded . That ' s a recorded deed. You
5 can check on it at the courthouse . That goes
6 down there , okay?
7 These are some questions I
8 have . These are questions that some of my
9 neighbors have . These are things we have all
10 talked about , and I ask that you consider these .
11 MAYOR PROCHASKA : Thank you .
12 MR . SCOTT : And I thank you very
13 much .
14 MS . BURD : Can I ask him a question?
15 MAYOR PROCHASKA : Hear their
16 testimony first . Is there someone else that
17 would like to come forward and testify? Sir .
18 WHEREUPON :
19 JIM LEE,
20 testified before the Yorkville City Council as
21 follows :
22 MR. LEE : Hi . I ' m Jim Lee . I live
23 up here on 71 . If I could go over there on the
24 map .
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 963-0030
18
1 , I ' ve just got some concerns .
2 What ' s going to happen with the creek that runs
3 through, Timber Creek, and comes here ? It shows
4 it dead-ends . What are they going to do with the
5 creek there with the water?
6 Also, up here , this is good,
7 they have the lake here , but I have water that
8 comes off of Mr . Chally ' s and runs down to my
9 property and then comes back in . Is that going
10 to continue or --
11 MR . GUERARD : I can give you an
12 overview of what will happen , and we will be
13 capturing the water that comes on our project and
14 then managing it , and so it won ' t be going on and
15 off our property onto yours . It will be captured
16 before that happens .
17 MR . LEE : Now, is there like an
18 overflow on this lake?
19 MR . GUERARD : Yes , there will be
20 one .
21 MR . LEE : And where will that go to?
22 MR . GUERARD : Goes to this pond and
23 then out .
24 MR . LEE : Okay . All right . What

1 are we going to do down here with this creek?
2 What are we going to do with that? Timber Creek
3 meets up with this creek .
4 MR . GUERARD : I would say to you
5 this is the zoning and the annexation, and so
6 there will be -- there is two other whole
7 processes to go through, preliminary plat will
8 have a lot more detail, the stormwater study and
9 all the things that you are asking for .
10 Then there is another level of
11 final engineering that also comes back through
12 here , so those answers will be much better
13 detailed and presented later on, and all that
14 works to accomplish it .
15 So something might have to
16 change here because of that if the engineering
17 dictated that, but it will be addressed . I mean,
18 the City has very strict ordinances about
19 stormwater .
20 MR . LEE : okay . All right . And the
21 same thing then with cleaning the creek?
22 MR . GUERARD: Anything that would
23 have to happen, it ' s our --
24 MR . LEE : That ' s just my concern,
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 983-0030
20
1 you know, because it ' s -- there ' s a lot of
2 water -- as Randy said, there ' s a lot of water
3 that moves around that area .
4 UNIDENTIFIED AUDIENCE MEMBER : Well ,
5 the lake over on the other side of the road .
6 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Sir, sir, one at a
7 time . You are welcome to come up in a moment if
8 you would like . Thank you .
9 MR. LEE : That ' s all I have to ask .
10 MAYOR PROCHASKA : And, again, it ' s
11 not that I don ' t want you to speak, but again, we
12 have a court reporter that ' s trying to take
13 everybody ' s discussion .
14 If we have a couple people
15 talking at one time , it ' s hard for her to do
16 that, so we need to be aware of that .
17 Is there someone else that
18 would like to come up and comment? Sir .
19 WHEREUPON :
20 MOLA RAFIEI ,
21 testified before the Yorkville City Council as
22 follows :
23 MR . RAFIEI : Hi . My first name is
24 Mola, my last name is Rafiei , R-A-F-I-E-I , and I
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 983-0030
I
21
I
1 live at 6 Hillside Drive .
2 I believe Randy had a lot of
3 good points regarding what ' s going on right now
4 in our subdivision, but the other problem we have
5 is this creek .
6 This creek runs actually
7 through private properties , it goes through
8 people ' s back yard, and what ' s going to happen if
9 it ' s going to overflow? People ' s back yard is
10 pretty much -- it ' s gone .
11 You are going to have a flood
12 in your back yard, okay, because of overflow from
13 this subdivision going to the private properties ,
14 okay? Now --
15 MAYOR PROCHASKA : That ' s a concern .
16 MR. RAFIEI : That ' s my concern .
17 Now, I know the growth is coming . I don ' t have
18 nothing about growth and I love growth, as long
19 as it ' s sensible and under control .
20 But here we have a school
21 system -- We have a problem already, okay? I ' m
22 also certain pretty much everybody read the
23 dialogue, okay?
24 We have a school system that ' s
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630) 983-0030
22
1 overloaded already . The school system is
2 actually choking , okay? You ' ve got average class
3 size of 30 to 35 students .
4 The test for the -- it was a
5 state test , we didn ' t do -- our school system
6 didn ' t really do good in that , okay, because of
7 the -- they were talking about the school size --
8 the class sizes and so forth .
9 Now, we have the new school
10 that they are building in Grande Reserve , and
11 that ' s the board, from Dr . Engel , okay, they
12 don ' t have enough money to open that school
13 because -- You know, there is two choices , okay?
14 Don ' t open the school or raise the taxes . That ' s
15 going to come -- the referendum is coming in
16 March I believe .
17 Now what they ' re going to do?
18 If this pass , okay, I guess it ' s going to help .
19 If it didn ' t pass , what ' s going to happen?
20 MAYOR PROCHASKA : That ' s not this
21 meeting, sir . We want to stay on --
22 MR . RAFIEI : Well , this is
23 basically -- It ' s going to be all connected to
24 each other , okay? Now, if it did pass , okay ,
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 983- 0030
23
1 what are we going to do?
2 Are we taxing the senior
3 citizen that are in the fixed income out of the
4 city? Are we going to do that?
5 Now, what ' s going on in this
6 subdivision? It ' s just too crowded, too many
7 houses .
g How about when you set up R-2 ,
9 straight R-2 ? How about a park? How about the
10 park? How about instead of giving -- I know
11 Chuck is a nice guy, no problem with him.
12 How about instead of giving it
13 straight R-2 to this subdivision, okay, every lot
14 in this subdivision is one acre or two acre or
15 two and a half acre lots , okay?
16 Instead of giving an R-2 , how
17 about a PUD, planning unit development , okay?
18 And then you have the control , okay?
19 You have the control . You can
20 dictate what type of lots go on there . If it ' s
21 going to be a straight R-2 , you don ' t have no
22 control anymore . You lost your control . You
23 cannot dictate anything . You cannot .
24 Technically you cannot .
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 983-0030
24
1 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Well , sir, just to
2 answer that particular question, in the City of
3 Yorkville , whether it ' s a PUD -- and we ' ve done
4 many PUD ' s in the City of Yorkville, so we are
5 quite familiar with them, and the other issue
6 that we have in Yorkville that many other towns
7 don ' t have is regardless whether it ' s a PUD or
8 straight zoning, there is always , always , an
9 annexation agreement that sets the requirements
10 and standards .
11 MR . RAFIEI : Okay . Same track . We
12 are on the same track, okay .
13 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Okay .
14 MR . RAFIEI : And, therefore , I
15 really don ' t think that you should approve this
16 subdivision for R-2 , okay? If you approve it , it
17 should be planned unit development .
18 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Okay .
19 MR . RAFIEI : That ' s it .
20 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Thank you . Anyone
21 else? Yes , sir .
22 WHEREUPON :
23 MIKE STODDARD,
24 testified before the Yorkville City Council as
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 983-0030
25
1 follows :
2 MR . STODDARD : My name is Mike
3 Stoddard . I reside at 110 Hillside Drive . And
4 I ' m not going to sit here and beat the lot sizes
5 to death .
6 I mean, everybody in our
7 subdivision wants to see these lots much, much
8 larger than what they are .
9 And the only point I ' d like to
10 make is the reason that all of this growth is
11 coming, and certainly everybody wants to welcome
12 the new people that are coming here, and they are
13 moving here because it is a fine community, and I
14 enjoy living here and have for a long time , and
15 some people have lived here for a lifetime .
16 Let ' s remember the people that made it a nice
17 community.
18 MAYOR PROCHASKA : Thank you . Anyone
19 else ?
20 (No Response)
21 MAYOR PROCHASKA : At this time , if
22 someone on the council , Val , you had a question?
23 MS . BURD : I would like to ask this
24 gentleman .
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 983-0030
26
1 MAYOR PROCHASKA : Sure . That would
2 be Randy .
3 MS . BURD : You mentioned the berm,
4 you were still interested in having the berm put
5 in, and I thought that we had discussed that at
6 one of the other meetings and it had been
7 mentioned that that would interfere with the
8 water flow .
9 I mean, wouldn ' t that actually
10 trap the water on your side of the berm?
11 MR . SCOTT : I know we talked about
12 it , but I don ' t recall the outcome of it . I ' m
13 sorry.
14 MS . BURD : Okay . Well , wouldn ' t
15 that trap the water on your side of the berm?
16 The problem is you have water on your property
17 and it ' s not water flowing from there to you,
18 isn ' t it from you to them?
19 MR . SCOTT : Well , actually where it
20 comes from is up here , in this area here , comes
21 from behind the cemetery and comes out -- and I
22 don ' t know the people -- I don ' t know if it comes
23 out on Jeff and Beth ' s property, but also on the
24 property next to theirs , it comes out from the
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 983-0030
27
1 field and up here by the cemetery and up by
2 Mike ' s house , it comes out back here , mostly and
3 comes down through . If they stop it here, it ' s
4 going to follow on down .
5 MS . BURD : Well , is it then on your
6 side of the berm?
7 MR. SCOTT : It will be -- No . If
8 they put the berm on the line, no .
9 MS . BURD: Then it would be on your
10 side?
11 MR . SCOTT : Yeah .
12 MS . BURD : Okay . That ' s what I was
13 wondering . If they put a berm in, if it would
14 stop the flow of water .
15 MR . SCOTT : It would -- You would
16 have to redirect it , right?
17 MR . GUERARD : Yeah . To -- Haven ' t
18 asked the question, but as far as responding, it
19 was brought up, the question about a berm, and we
20 took a look at it , and what we decided to do was
21 rather than the expense of the berm, take out
22 lots and make bigger lots , and for a couple of
23 reasons .
24 One is I am very concerned, the
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 983-0030
28
1 water is across the backs of quite of few of
2 these lots , and it also comes up around in here
3 again, you have the same situation .
4 If you start to build a large
5 berm and it runs all the way around this
6 property, it seems to me it would exasperate the
7 stormwater instead of helping at all .
8 These are -- You know, this was
9 before stormwater regs , so there is no detention
10 in this subdivision, and then right now there is
11 nothing in this farm field .
12 The whole thing flows right
13 into -- you know, all together, there is no
14 controlled system, so -- And I know the City -- I
15 can ' t speak for the City engineer , but he was
16 here for the Planning Commission, and I think he
17 agreed that the stormwater system will
18 dramatically improve the stormwater system here
19 when it ' s designed and put in .
20 And I know you ' ve all seen it
21 before and experienced it , it always does . I
22 have been building subdivisions for 20 years . I
23 have never ever built a subdivision under these
24 codes that doesn ' t dramatically improve all the
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 983-0030
29
1 stormwater around it because they design for
2 about 150 percent of the actual flows that they
3 anticipate to catch up with some of the situation
4 that has happened in past years .
5 MS . BURD: And that would also
6 address the one gentleman ' s concern about the
7 flooding in his back yard? Because you can ' t --
8 isn ' t that correct , you can ' t allow water to go
9 flooding off into another --
10 MR. GUERARD : Right, you can ' t . We
11 have to capture it and manage it and then control
12 it .
13 MR . SCOTT : This project is going to
14 be quite a challenge . I have talked with Richard
15 on several occasions .
16 There are drain tiles that come
17 out here , and if we were to, I don ' t know,
18 whatever, re-engineer this , stop this here and
19 then come out down here by Nick ' s property here,
20 he ' s got --
21 MR . STODDARD : Two .
22 MR. SCOTT : How many do you got?
23 MR . STODDARD : Two .
24 MR. SCOTT : The trade is to catch
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630) 983-0030
30
1 that , but then our next concern is even if we
2 don ' t go with a berm is after you do put it here ,
3 obviously I know we have had overflows , but put
4 it into the creek .
5 If you put it into the creek,
6 you should have somebody clean the creek first
7 because it doesn ' t handle what we ' ve got now, and
8 I realize, yeah, you ' ll be taking some of that
9 away, and I appreciate your comment there .
10 There will probably always be
11 water in here because there wasn ' t any codes when
12 this was set up . We don ' t have enough streets
13 and sewers .
14 The county was kind enough to
15 help me with my property . I ' m sure there is
16 people in this room that know that , that want
17 this work here, and you know why they went with
18 this work in my yard? They helped me pay for
19 this .
20 I didn ' t think some of my
21 neighbors knew this , but they did, and if you
22 want -- I don ' t know if you want to pass this
23 around or not, but they did that because somebody
24 made a mistake, and the reason we keep bringing
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 983- 0030
31
1 it up and bringing it up to you, Richard, and to
2 you folks , is you know what water can do .
3 There ' s always a hundred year
4 rain that nothing is going to work, we all know
5 that, but if we plan accordingly, we appreciate
6 the fact that we all can work together to make it
7 manageable . And I thank you .
8 MR . GUERARD : And this is -- Much of
9 what he said we are aware of and are working
10 with -- the drain tiles , for instance , we have
11 done a detailed drain tile study of this whole
12 area to know where the drain tiles are , and under
13 your ordinances , we have to deal with those , they
14 have to be connected, they have to -- we can ' t
15 simply break them and disconnect them.
16 We have to take that water and
17 manage it, too, so I mean, all of these things
18 that you are saying is part of the engineering
19 that has to be done .
20 MR . SCOTT : One other thing I ' d like
21 to add to you, Richard, and to you folks if I may
22 while we are on this , some of us , well, I for
23 one, sump pumps , we run them out in our back
24 yard, and now because we have no drainage for our
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 983-0030
32
1 property, whereas before, you know, you could
2 pretty much let everything fly, what ' s probably
3 going to happen is the county or somebody ' s going
4 to -- or the township is going to have to come in
5 provide more drainage for those of us that have
6 sump pumps .
7 You are going to have another
8 situation there because, yeah, back to what you
9 said, we can ' t manage the water we ' ve got, and
10 that ' s why we ' re really concerned about extra
11 water and extra run-off .
12 MAYOR PROCHASKA : Thank you .
13 MS . BURD : I have one more comment
14 and I will make it quick . For the gentleman who
15 was mentioning about the school district
16 problems , we had brought up as a council a
17 possibility of having a moratorium on development
18 in our community, and the school district
19 informed us that they were not in favor of that ,
20 so we can ' t secondguess how they want to approach
21 the growth, but they do not want us to have a
22 freeze on growth in the community .
23 From what I understand, they
24 want more rooftops so that commercial will come
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 983-0030
33
1 in and they will get more sales tax and that kind
2 of thing . Is that correct?
3 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Well , I think part
4 of it also, trying to think back to that meeting,
5 was -- one of the things they commented on was
6 the City of Yorkville is only one community
7 that ' s putting school children and houses into
8 the school district, and when you look at the
9 quality and the densities that we are approving
10 in Yorkville , we are much lower than some of the
11 other communities that are going in, and we are
12 at the same time working with developers to build
13 the schools and provide space, so I think that
14 was part of their thought also .
15 MS . BURD : But they did not want us
16 to --
17 MAYOR PROCHASKA : They were not for
18 us to stop the growth, no .
19 MS . BURD : Which surprised me , but
20 that was their position .
21 MR RAFIEI : Strange .
22 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Is there anyone
23 else on the council that would like to make
24 comments ?
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 983-0030
34
1 (No Response )
2 MAYOR PROCHASKA : If not , I have a
3 couple comments , Rich, on the actual annexation
4 agreement itself .
5 First , if you go on Page 14 of
6 your capture agreements , I just want our staff to
7 verify because it says that there is no other
8 recapture known, and I ' m not sure if this
9 property was part of -- there was I think a water
10 main and river crossing many years ago and I just
11 don ' t know how far that went . I just want to
12 make sure that we verify that that ' s not in
13 there .
14 MR . GUERARD : I remember the river
15 crossing well --
16 MAYOR PROCHASKA : That ' s right .
17 MR . GUERARD : -- since I paid for a
18 lot of it .
19 MAYOR PROCHASKA : So I just want to
20 know whether that ' s in there or not .
21 The other issues I have is on
22 the next one , when you talk about special service
23 area as a primary funding for the common --
24 maintenance of the common areas and facilities ,
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 9B3- 0030
35
1 normally we don ' t make that the primary, it ' s the
2 secondary and it ' s a backup .
3 The way I am reading this is
4 that basically you ' d be turning all the common
5 areas and everything over to the City and it
6 would be up to the City to determine if a
7 homeowner ' s association is created .
8 MR . GUERARD : We are not intending
9 that unless the City requests it . It is just a
10 backup .
11 MAYOR PROCHASKA : And then I think
12 someone needs to look at the wording here , that ' s
13 not what I am reading .
14 MR. GUERARD : We are not proposing
15 an SSA for this project . That ' s not part of our
16 annexation agreement .
17 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Actually it is .
18 That was going to be my next statement , is on
19 Page 16, it does say that the owner and developer
20 and their successor grantees agree to properly
21 establish a special service area . The City is
22 named, also . The site of the property utilized
23 as a primary funding mechanism for certain
24 eligible structure costs . So that is --
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) - 983-0030
36
1 MR . GUERARD : We are withdrawing
2 that request .
3 MAYOR PROCHASKA : Thank you . I had
4 that marked on here .
5 And then the other -- the only
6 other thing I had marked on here , Rich , is on
7 Page 17 , talking about the off-site easements and
8 construction .
9 It talks about the City
10 would -- that if you could not get off-site
11 easements , that the City -- it says shall
12 exercise its power of eminent domain to acquire
13 the same .
14 You are aware of our new city
15 policy, the only way we will do that is if it ' s
16 for public infrastructure .
17 So, again, that would actually
18 be for things dealing with economic development .
19 MR . GUERARD : We understand that .
20 MAYOR PROCHASKA : Okay . Those are
21 the things that I just wanted to point out that
22 we ' ll change , and just for the record, these
23 are -- I think your other annexation agreement is
24 almost exactly the same, so it ' s the same
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 983-0030
37
1 comments .
2 MR . GUERARD : Correct . It is .
3 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Thank you . Anyone
4 else?
5 (No Response)
6 MAYOR PROCHASKA : And just also as a
7 point, I am thinking maybe what I ' d like to see,
8 and the Council, you know, you guys can decide,
9 but as far as the special service areas for
10 improvements , I am thinking that I would like to
11 not see anything stronger than maybe what was put
12 in the Pulte agreement that just says they are
13 allowed to ask until such time as the Economic
14 Development Committee has a chance to do the
15 research they are doing . to make their
16 recommendations to the City Council, because I
17 think at this point that ' s kind of still up in
18 the air . So if you are pulling it, as long as
19 it ' s gone , it ' s not an issue here .
20 If there is no further comment ,
21 I would entertain a motion to close the public
22 hearing .
23 MS . BURD : So moved .
24 MS . OHARE : Second .
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 983-0030

24 We are now in public hearing, and, Rich , if you
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 983-0030
40
1 would like to make a presentation .
2 WHEREUPON :
3 RICH GUERARD,
4 testified before the Yorkville City Council as
5 follows :
6 Thank you, everyone . For the
7 record, my name is Rich Guerard, appearing on
8 behalf of Wyndham Deerpoint and the development
9 of this project , which we have named Yorkwood
10 Estates .
11 The mayor described the project
12 and where it ' s located . It ' s approximately 178
13 acres , and once again this has appeared through
14 the concept plan process through the Community
15 Development Committee , and we are substantially
16 in conformance .
17 What I would like to do, once
18 again we are proposing some changes based on what
19 we have heard at the Planning Commission and from
20 neighbors and some other issues , and maybe I
21 could go through and talk about that .
22 But quickly an overview of the
23 project , the primary differences of the project
24 before , the lower here , is the project that we
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 983- 0030
41
1 presented at the Planning Commission and looked
2 at , and once again the lots at the south are
3 minimum half acre lots .
4 This is a treed area and
5 what -- our plan here is that this is shown as
6 PUD, although we are requesting no variances from
7 your ordinances .
8 The reason is we have two
9 different sized lots , so we include it as a PUD,
10 although it really is all R-2 zoning .
11 And what we have done here on
12 the south portion of it , as you said, there is
13 minimum half acre lots ; on the north portion of
14 it we had proposed this lighter yellow, which
15 were 10 , 000 square foot lots , and the darker
16 orange, which is a 12 , 000 square foot lot, with a
17 concept that all of these other ones were located
18 on significant open space .
19 The project now has -- just
20 approximately 47 percent of the project has been
21 put into open space , and the major changes we
22 have done , you can see -- this is to be a custom
23 home building area .
24 Our plan is to physically put

1 in the improvements and sell custom home lots in
2 this area . We anticipate those homes will
3 probably be in the 600 to $ 900 , 000 range on the
4 custom homes , so -- and it is -- As I said, it ' s
5 in an area -- We have moved back . You can see
6 these lots located here . This area in the center
7 was really hard to use and we are going to
8 protect the trees , so we have made this a bigger
9 area where there is a fine grove of tree stand in
10 there, so we made it bigger to be able to save
11 more of the trees .
12 The property itself -- The
13 reason to go with larger lots in here , half acre
14 lots , we ' ve got a subdivision very similar to
15 this that ' s under construction in Elgin, that ' s
16 going to be the Home Builders ' show next year,
17 and by doing this with some conservation design
18 type of principles , we are able to -- meaning a
19 lot of it has to do with not mass earth work and
20 how we are designing to protect the trees , we are
21 literally planning to build the houses into the
22 trees and have the building plans decided before
23 we start going through the plans , so not only do
24 we save the trees in the open areas that are
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 963- 0030
43
1 being protected, but we also have a significant
2 amount of trees that will remain within the
3 project itself , within the homes .
4 If we were to go to the ten or
5 12 , 000 square foot lots and mass grade , between
6 the mass grading and the sewer and the water that
7 has to go in , it ' s almost impossible to save the
8 trees . You end up clear-cutting the area .
9 Whereas in this case, we will
10 be able to preserve a large amount . There is a
11 similar subdivision, it ' s called Tall Oaks , in
12 Elgin . If anybody wanted to see it , you could
13 see how much can be preserved if you handle it
14 the right way .
15 So that ' s what ' s proposed to
16 the south with these lots . We have taken out
17 about eight lots I think from this portion --
18 from this project before, and that has to do with
19 what we are trying to do to preserve some of the
20 larger areas there .
21 And that ' s a detention . One of
22 the neighbors had pointed out there is a
23 significant amount of water through here at
24 times , so -- because of the creek, and we were
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 983-0030
44
1 studying that and we have increased the amount of
2 detention in that area to deal with that, and so
3 that engineering will continue .
4 Then north what we have done ,
5 particularly the Planning Commission still didn ' t
6 feel comfortable with the 10 , 000 square foot lots
7 even on the open space , and now the minimum lot
8 size is 12 , 000 square feet , so we have no 10 , 000
9 square foot lots anymore . So, once again, this
10 conforms with your Comprehensive Plan .
11 The actual density on this
12 whole site is one per acre . Now, the lots are
13 really kind of the same size as the other lots on
14 the north side here , they are minimum half acre
15 lots , but because of the 40 percent open space --
16 and that ' s dictated a lot by the nature of the
17 sites . There is a lot of areas there that need
18 to be preserved . It wasn ' t all farm land that
19 was on this property or is on this property now .
20 So that ' s kind of a quick
21 summary . As I said, you know, there is also a
22 park that we have met with the park district here
23 on this area .
24 It ' s a natural location for the
Depo Court Reporting Service ( 630 ) 983- 0030
45
1 park because as you drive in you have an overlook
2 on all of this open area and the subdivision will
3 come right to the park here , and then you can see
4 that trail system we talked about that will go
5 north through the Chally portion .
6 This is part of the city ' s
7 long-range plan, and it is a trail system that
8 connects down here and goes all the way through
9 the project .
10 We will connect to that project
11 and then go all the way up through the trail
12 system, with the bike trail system, and we have
13 run that by the park district also as far as the
14 site .
15 And I think I ' ve given you a
16 pretty quick summary . Not a whole lot has
17 changed, except we made some bigger lots and took
18 some lots out .
19 We planned this to be a
20 high-end subdivision. Be happy to answer any
21 questions that you might have .

REPORTS
MAYOR'S REPORT
Appointment to Park Board
Mayor Prochaska explained that any one appointed to the Park Board has to have a routine
background check. However,he noted with the holiday,he did not get the information to the
Police Department in time to get it back for tonight. The security check should be done in the
next few days. With this in mind,Mayor Prochaska entertained a motion to approve the
appointment of Gary Golinski to the Park Board subject to his background check. So moved by
Alderman Wolfer;seconded by Alderman Ohms.
Mayor Prochaska explained that Mr.Golinski was filling a space vacated by Richard Korinek and
his term will expire on April 30,2007.
Alderman Besco commented that as big as the City is getting he thought people from other areas
of the City would be attracted to volunteer. He noted that there is already another Park Board
member living in the same subdivision as Mr.Golinski and he asked if any other individuals
applied. Mayor Prochaska state that the position was publicized and Mr.Golinski was the only
applicant. Mayor Prochaska also noted that at one time,there were three Library Board members
who lived on the same streeL He stated that unless the ordinance is changed to reflect that
members have to be from specific areas,anyone can apply.
Alderman Brad asked if Mr.Golinski was aware that the Park Board was an advisory board
because former members didn't understand this. Mayor Prochaska stated that he has had this
discussion with Mr.Golinski. She stated that if people understand the process they won't be
quite so upset when the City Council has to make decisions that don't match their
recommendations. She stated that when this happens,it is not because the City Council doesn't
respect their recommendations but rather the Council is trying to we the"big picture". She
commented that she would like to have a good relationship with Mr.Golinski.

Alderman Leslie asked that the location of the building be clarified. Mayor Prochaska stated that
the building was a ranch duplex located on Route 47 across from Apple Tree Court.

due to the widening of Route 47 and because there is other business zoning in area.
Alderman Ohare asked if the sidewalk clause was included in the agreement and Attorney Wyeth
explained that there is language addressing the sidewalk in the final draft of the agreement which
was just received today. Upon the widening of Route 47,the developer will construct a sidewalk
consistent with other sidewalks being constructed on that side of the street.
Alderman Spears asked if any of the neighboring properties had any objections or concerns.

and a Recreation Department. Some"clean-up"is needed in this area.

Recreation actually lists three departments;the Park&Recreation Executive Directors office,a
Parks Department and a Recreation Department, He recommended a new ordinance to clarify the
.Park&Recreation Department.

Attorney Wyeth stated he did not look for this so the City may or may not have one. Alderman
James asked if an ordinance was needed for every City department Alderman James suggested
bringing this issue to the Administration Committee for further discussion. Interim City

municipal departments such as the Police Departmen;Public Works Department,etc. He also
commented that he discussed the City's job description with the City's Human Relations person
Denise Kasper and it was recommended that a common format be used for all fumrejob

needed in the motion. Alderman James noted that there ism end date to the policy as it is just
temporary.
Alderman Ohare stated that the ordinance does not specify that city workers are to follow the
City's ordinances on puking. Mayor Prochaska noted that the resolution does not make
exemptions so all ordinances need to be followed.
Alderman Spears asked if this affects the City's insurance and Mayor Prochaska explained that
the City's liability is fire going back and forth to work He stated there is more a question
regarding the tax point of view.
Alderman Besco explained that the resolution was created because due to the construction at
Tower Lane the Public Works Department is running out of space. Allowing employees to take
vehicles home will help to alleviate the problem.
Alderman Leslie asked what repercussions there would be if an employee uses a city vehicle for
personal use. Mayor Prochaska explained that this would be treated as insubordination and the
appropriate steps,according to the Employee Manual,will be taken against the employee.

Resolution 2005-97 Approving the Revised Job Description for the Position of
Engineering Administrative Assistant(Formerly known as"Engineering Assistant")
(ADM 2005-09)
A motion was made by Alderman James to approve a resolution authorizing the Revised Job
Description for the Position of Engineering Administrative Assistant(formerly known as
`Engineering Assistant")and to authorim the Mayor and City Clerk to execute such documents;
seconded by Alderman Ohare.
Alderman Bosco commented that the Community Development Director will be starting on
January 17,2006 and he thought that since this is a position in his department,the City Council
should wait too approve this until the new director can have some say in the job description.
Mayor Prochaska clarified that this position is in the Engineering Department not the Planning
Department and the Engineering Department is not under the Planning Department. Currently
there is a Building Department,Engineering Department and a Planning Department however
there has been some discussion to someday evolve the three departments into one but they are
still initially three separate departments. Mayor Prochaska further explained that the Community
Development Director will have two positions to fill that are in the budget;a park planner and a
city planner. Alderman Bosco asked if this was eliminating the position of secretary for this
department Mayor Prochaska stated that no positions are being eliminated but this resolution
revises the existing position.
Alderman Spears stated she agreed with Alderman Besco;this does not need to be rushed
through. She felt it should wait until the appropriate staff is on board. Mayor Prochaska
reiterated that the Community Development Director would not have any input into this position
because this position is for the Engineering Department.
Alderman Burd stated she spoke with City Engineer Joe Wywrot and this is the position that he -
needs;he does not need a secretary.
Alderman Leslie asked if there was a candidate in mind for this position and Mayor Prochaska
stated it would be Jennifer Fischer. Alderman Burd asked if this would be a promotion and
Finance Director Pleckham explained it would not;the resolution is clarifying the job functions of
the current position which is held by Mrs.Fischer. Mayor Prochaska agreed with Finance
Director Pleckham that this is a clarification of an existing position. Alderman Leslie commented
that he feels Mrs.Fischer is performing duties beyond the current job description and it is time to
update the description.
There was further discussion regarding the job description and the duties performed by the
employee.
Alderman Spears asked why the educational requirements were being changed;were all the
administrative assistant positions being changed? She said it was discussed at the Administration
Committee that the educational requirement should be 64 credit hours. She stated that requiring a
person have an Associates Degree is not being consistent with other positions in the City. Mayor
Prochaska noted that at the last committee meeting is was discussed to review all job descriptions
and determine if this needs to be upgraded. He stated that this is a technical position so more
education is needed.
Finance Director Pleckbam noted that it was discussed at the Administration Committee meeting
that the job title should remain the same however after some discussion it was changed so it
would not be confused with an engineering position.
Alderman Bard stated it was discussed that certain types of classes should be specified for this
job description and she asked if a person in this position would take classes in engineering or
related fields. Mayor Prochaska stated that he could see that this person would be allowed to take
engineering classes.
Mayor Prochaska clarified that the job description qualifications should reflect 64 credit hours.
A motion was made by Alderman Wolfer to amend thejob description by changing the
requirement from an Associates Degree to 64 credit hours;seconded by Alderman Burd.
Motion to amend the job description approved by a roll call vote. Ayes-7 Nays-0

Ordinance 2005-100 Proposing the Establishment of Special Service Area 2005-109
(Bristol Bay I)
(ADM 2005-19)
A motion was made by Alderman Janes to approve an ordinance proposing the establishment of
Special Service Area 2005-109(Bristol Bay 1)and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to
execute;seconded by Alderman Wolfer.
Alderman Besco commented that he asked for this to be removed from the Consent Agenda so
that he could be consisted in voting against the SSA.
Mayor Prochaska explained that this is the proposing ordinance which sets the date for public
hearing and Alderman Obwe clarified that this does not give the developer the SSA.
Alderman James clarified that the developer will identify how they will use the SSA at the public
hearing. Mayor Prochaska stated that is was suggested that at the public hearing the City ask for
a specific use for the freed up capital caused by the SSA.
Alderman Bard asked if the City Council already passed Annexation Agreement that allows for
SSA's to be established and Mayor Prochaska stated that this was one of the last subdivisions that
was allowed to have an SSA rather than allow the developer to ask for an SSA. He reiterated that
the City can stipulate the use of the SSA funds. Alderman Burd stated that she was sympathetic
to Alderman Besco's position however the City cannot afford to vote against the SSA.
Alderman Spears asked what would happen if the City Council became limited to what they
approve and the developers are not please with this. She asked if the developers were legally
bound to continue with their development. Mayor Prochaska stated he did not have an answer to
this question.
There was further discussion regarding the process of specifying what SSA's will be used for.

MAYOR:
1. Draft Resolution Adopting Recommended Plan to Implement Governance Enhancements as
Proposed by Dr. Curt Wood and Dr. Gerald Gabris
In the original recommendation,there is a$2900 amount tied to the next step of putting together
task forces and the Administrator Ordinance. Mayor Prochaska just wanted the Council members
to be aware of this.
This item moves to the consent agenda.
2. Draft Ordinance Amending and Restating Ordinance No. 2005-77 Vacating Scott Road
Scott Road is the very short road that runs from Rt. 47 to Rt. 71 near Silica Sand and this ordinance
allows for vacating this road. At this time, Gary Davidson of Crosslake Holdings, asked to speak.
He said at the last meeting,he did not have the survey from Smith Engineering when the vacation
petition was filed. It was found that only 7/8 of the road was vacated with 1/8 of the road on the
title policy. A property owner had not signed the petition at that time. Mr. Davidson said PIN
numbers should be included in the ordinance and he will speak with Attorney Wyeth to include
those numbers.
Mayor Prochaska asked for the final draft by the coming Friday and this will move to City Council.
It will require a'/4 vote.
3. Bruell Street Sanitary Sewer—Shed Replacement
The Mayor said he thought the shed had been replaced as part of this project, however,he was
informed by a resident that the shed had not yet been ordered. He said the size requested was not a
standard size so the next standard size was considered. A vote will be needed since the shed size
has been changed.
This will move to the consent agenda
4. Roy Roy Creek Interceptor Contract 3—Sewer Pipe Costs
Mayor Prochaska explained that Contract#3 is the portion of the sewer to be built from Rt. 34 to
north of Faxon Rd. Due to Hurricane Katrina,the cost of this PVC pipe has increased by
$244,000. It was noted that these contracts are still the low bids and the overall costs are still
below the engineer's estimate. The Sanitary District will be able to cover these costs with the
Infrastructure Participation Fees (IPF) fees and will insure that the project keeps moving.
It was recommended to move this item forward to the consent agenda subject to YBSD covering
the additional costs as stated in the above-mentioned letter.
(moved forward in agenda)
Administration Committee
5. Rob Roy Creek Bond Ordinance—Admin 1016105
Kevin McCanna was present to speak about this interceptor that will serve the Rt. 47 and Galena

they are close to selling those bonds. There are two potential purchasers at this time. He is
Page 3 of 8
waiting for the City Attorney to obtain the signed agreement from the three major developers. Mr.
McCanna said his company is trying to make these bonds very flexible and wants them to be
callable so that as the development occurs,the bonds can be called in.
Alderman James asked about the risk to the City. Mr. McCanna said there is very little risk unless
all development were to stop for 10-15 years. And,Mayor Prochaska added that the developers
will pay participatory fees and a minimum number of connection fees much be purchased each
year.
This moves forward to the consent agenda under the Administration portion.
(back to order of agenda)

slightly as well as the expenses due to the bonds. One change she noted was the decrease of
$57,000 in revenue. She said a revenue was double-posted that resulted in this deficit. Also, some
revenue comes in after the fiscal end of the year,but it is back-dated. Ms. Pleckham will revise
this report and re-submit it under Administration for discussion if needed.

harvested and before the ground freezes.

6. Nextel Second Line Option—Admin 1016105
Alderman James said that some employees had expressed interest in having a second line on their
City phones that would be their personal line. The bill for that line would be sent to their home
addresses. There is no obligation to the City if those charges are not paid. Alderman James said he
was in favor of this idea and there would be no need to carry two phones then. According to
Alderman Besco, there are other companies offering similar services for half the amount and he
suggested the City look into those first. He will provide those company names to Ms. Pleckham.
At this time,there are approximately 60 phones being used by employees and about 30 of those are
in the Police Department and 25-30 in Public Works. Alderman Munns noted that$27,000 was
spent on Nextel phones last year. In the past, employees have been required to pay for personal
calls made on the Nextel phones. There is no contract on the second line and it will be in the
employee's name.
This moves to the consent agenda.
ADDITIONAL BUSINESS:
Alderman Munns said the streetlight at Rt. 34 and Sycamore goes on and off. Public Works
Director said a nick had been found in the line for Sycamore & John Street and that will be looked
at for the problem area.
Alderman Besco said the streets in Countryside near York Meadows are narrower and that
residents are parking on the streets around that area. This leaves one lane of traffic. Long-time
residents spoke with York Meadows management and Ms. Spears said the residents were not
treated very well and were told the apartment residents could park where they wish. The Mayor
said it might be an issue of striping and this area will be redone when the interceptor is completed.
The Police Department will be asked to look at this problem.
Alderman Leslie said residents of Windett Ridge have said they have no streetlights yet. Public
Works Director Dhuse will contract Com Ed.
Page 8 of 8
Ms. Pleckham reported that the SSA panel discussion will be October 20t' from 2-4pm and
approximately 60 people have registered. It was noted that EDC would be discussing SSA's on
this night. Mr. Besco asked if this discussion could be taped for those who cannot attend. Ms.
Pleckham will contact Glory Spies about that possibility.
As there was no other business, the meeting was adjourned at 8:18pm.

Dear Mr. Barnett:
I am pleased to inform you that the Lake County Division of Transportation has
chosen to recognize your firm as our selection for "Contractor of the Year" at this
year's Illinois Road and Transportation Builders Association annual meeting in
December. We have selected your company for your work on the Wilson Road
reconstruction project this past year and for your skill in advancing the objectives
of the project given a number of complicating factors including the need to
remain sensitive to motorists and the many residents that reside along the
frontage of the project.
Please plan to be present at the awards meeting on Thursday, December 2,
2004 at the Rosemont A & B Room at the Hyatt Regency O'Hare in Rosemont,
Illinois at 4:30 pm. We are preparing a short presentation and will have our staff
present to congratulate you on this accomplishment.
If you have any questions or would like to talk with me in advance of the meeting,
do not hesitate to give me a call.
Very truly yours,
��Buehler, P.E.

The Village of Lincolnshire has had the opportunity to employ your company on a significant number of
complicated underground projects over the past five years. In addition, I have been involved in
municipal government for over 29 years and have worked with many different contractors,which brings
me to my point.
Mr. Don Adkins, one of your job site foremen, and his crew,have been the primary presence in our
community. This individual has shown professionalism, quality workmanship and dedication to"getting
the job done". Donny considers the impact of his work and how it effects the daily lives of the residents
and creates an environment as acceptable as possible. He takes the time to explain the issues and
accurately predicts the outcome.
I know when I have a difficult project in Lincolnshire, I can count on the entire Glenbrook staff to see the
project through. We know that, sitting in the office,we can talk about how good things can go, etc. Don
Adkins makes it happen.
I commend Mr.Don Adkins and his crew for the outstanding performance given to the Village of
Lincolnshire.
Respectfully,
illage of Lincolnshire
