ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE REPORT
Ordinance Approving Third Amendment to the Annexation Agreement of Yorkville Farms
Development(Prestwick of Yorkville Subdivision)
n (PC 2015-02)
Alderman Koch made a motion to approve an ordinance approving the third amendment to the annexation
agreement of Yorkville Farms Development(Prestwick of Yorkville Subdivision)and authorize the
Mayor and City Clerk to execute; seconded by Alderman Kot.
The Council discussed the details of the proposed amended annexation agreement.Alderman Kot
supports this ordinance.Alderman Frieders asked what impact this would have on shaping future policy
for the City. City Administrator Olson and Community Development Director Barksdale-Noble
answered.Alderman Funkhouser and Alderman Colosimo do not support this ordinance. Alderman
Colosimo points out that in the past developers have taken advantage of the City. This is an opportunity to
make sure developers will not do this going forward.Alderman Teeling asked City Administrator Olson
for clarification concerning the agreement.Mayor Golinski agrees with some of the concerns that the
alderman have concerning a developers breech.He stated this is somewhat different. This is not a group
coming in to develop some massive subdivision and walking away. Instead,this is a family wanting to
add a Christian school to Yorkville's community. Alderman Funkhouser points out that this particular
developer is in fact selling lots for use other than the school itself. He would accept Mayor Golinski's idea
if the entire parcel were to be used entirely for the school.Alderman Milschewski stated it bothers her
that a local group,whom the City has reached out to help,has made no attempt to work with the City.
Alderman Teeling and City Attorney Orr discussed the terms of the current agreement and the proposed
amended agreement.Alderman Funkhouser said that the original agreement was to be over a three year
term which would not be acceptable to the City. Alderman Colosimo stated technically the City never had
an agreement. He thinks the developer should show some willingness to work with the City and consider
how this agreement could benefit both parties. Alderman Frieders stated that from the beginning a three
year term was too long. Alderman Teeling asked what are the ramifications if this is not passed. City
�-� Attorney Orr said then the City would be holding an annexation agreement that is in default. City
Attorney Orr said so should the City sue to enforce that portion of the annexation agreement. The City
could do that. Then the City would get a judgment that would lien the property. City Attorney Orr's
recommendation is to have a breach and give the City the option in the future to determine enforcement
and renegotiation should a new development need a proposal.Alderman Milschewski said the City had an
agreement with this developer. This is an amendment to the agreement. Then the developer defaulted on
the original agreement.Now the City has another agreement. The bottom line is that this developer
already defaulted on the original agreement. Alderman Milschewski can't support this amended
agreement.

3 MAYOR GOLINSKI : The public hearing is
4 open . Do we have anyone from the public who
5 would like to comment on this amendment?
6 Yes , sir . Mr . Kramer .
7 MR. KRAMER: Good evening . For the
8 record, my name is Daniel J. Kramer . I am an
9 attorney licensed to practice law in the state of
10 Illinois , and I represent the owners and
11 petitioners on public hearings numbers one, two,
12 three and four, and basically, as the agenda
13 says, they are all interrelated.
14 All of the individuals that we
15 represent are farm families that bought the land
16 for farming purposes for the most part .
17 The thing we wanted to get rid of
18 was the SSA obligations because none of the
19 developers have any plans to build water towers ,
20 infrastructure , move ahead with subdivisions .
21 We also wanted to get rid of the
22 conditions and the time frames for the issuance
23 of SSA bonds .
24 I think, as all of you know with the
Vitosh Reporting Service
815. 993 . 2832 cros .vitosh @gmail . com
5
1 ten-year depression we ' ve been through in the
2 real estate market in the last recent vintage,
3 you couldn ' t find an issuer for SSA bonds , nobody
4 wants that sort of thing now, so we are very much
5 in favor of these annexation changes .
6 All four owners are staying in the
7 city, they are delighted to be part of the city
8 of Yorkville, they are retaining the underlying
9 zonings that were originally granted to the
10 original developers , but other than that , we ' re
11 simply walking away from the SSAs and not asking
12 the City to issue any SSA bonds .
13 So that ' s it , and we will be happy
14 to answer any questions . That ' s all we are
15 asking on our four, and the fifth one I know is
16 the same thing .
17 MAYOR GOLINSKI : Any other comments?
18 Yes , ma ' am.
19 MS . MARY (UNIDENTIFIED) : I am totally
20 against it at this point . If you would --
21 MAYOR GOLINSKI : Would you please state
22 your name for the record?
23 MS . MARY (UNIDENTIFIED) : My name is
24 Mary. I am totally against it because I have

1 talked to several people from the forest preserve
2 throughout the past year, and a year ago I would
3 have been all for, gung ho, go ahead .
4 Where we live, it ' s an excellent
5 forest preserve area and wildlife galore, and
6 that ' s what -- the forest preserve I know is
7 interested because I had talked to Jason over
8 about a year ago and they were very much wanting
9 that until they found out through their attorney
10 that there was an SSA.
11 Now you want to remove the SSA when
12 they just spent the money on Fox Road, so they
13 have no money left . There is no hope . We know
14 how the state ' s economy is and that ' s where their
15 money came from. Now they have no money.
16 Now you can keep your SSA on there
17 because I am not interested anymore .
18 MAYOR GOLINSKI : Okay . Any other public
19 comment? Yes , sir .
20 MR. SAUNDERS : My name is Barry Saunders
21 and I am from -- represent the Yorkwood Estates
22 neighbors that are around that , and I guess if
23 you eliminate that SSA and the forest preserve
24 does have a chance to come in and take some of
Vitosh Deporting Service
815 . 993 . 2832 cros.vitosh @gmail . com
7
1 that, I ' d be all in favor of it because I think
2 that that is a great area and I ' m sure -- I don ' t
3 know if you are from the Yorkwood Estates or a
4 different one, but I ' m sure all that land back by
5 the Yorkwood Estates is excellent forest preserve
6 property, and if eliminating that would open the
7 door for a forest preserve to come in, I would be
8 in favor of that .
9 MS . MARY (UNIDENTIFIED) : There is no
10 money .
11 MR. SAUNDERS : Well, there is never any
12 money for anything, but somebody always finds
13 money when they need it .
14 MS . MARY (UNIDENTIFIED) : No .
15 MR. SAUNDERS : Well , let ' s knock down
16 some of the barriers anyway .
17 MAYOR GOLINSKI : I don ' t know if the
18 City was ever approached about a forest preserve
19 district or removing the SSAs , were we? I think
20 if we were, it ' s a process .
21 MS . NOBLE : I do recall --
22 MR. OLSON : Yeah, they had approached us
23 at some point or another, actually I think they
24 had already entered into a contract to buy the
Vitosh Reporting Service

8
1 property, somebody raised it at a public hearing,
2 that would have been probably two years ago at
3 this point, maybe a year and a half ago .
4 I am not aware if they are currently
5 under contract with the Forest Preserve District ,
6 whether they intend to do so .
7 I know the obligations for the five
8 subdivisions are all tied together; we have been
9 looking to remove them for a few years now .
10 MAYOR GOLINSKI : Okay . Any other public
11 comment?
12 MR. BEEN : My name is Jack Been . I am
13 also from the Maple Grove Subdivision . I guess
14 one question is are there any representatives
15 from the BBG Group, for the Yorkwood Estates? I
16 guess that ' s the bank property .
17 Do you know if the forest preserve
18 is still involved in the property? What ' s the
19 status on that?
20 MR. IRWIN : Peter Irwin, Bridgeview
21 Bank. I do know approximately a year, year and a
22 half ago we were in negotiations with the forest
23 preserve ; the SSA was brought up, and because of
24 that, they withdrew their interest and -- which
Vitosh Reporting Service
815. 993 . 2832 cros .vitosh @gmail . com
9
1 has prompted our ownership to seek removing it so
2 that it could be returned back to more of a
3 farmland, forest preserve area, rather than what
4 it is now, I guess that ' s what it is now, also,
5 but , you know, we ' re -- we took it through
6 foreclosure of a developer and are looking to,
7 you know, give back to the community .
8 MAYOR GOLINSKI : Okay . Any other
9 comments?
10 MR. BEEN : Just one other thing then
11 just so that we understand as the public .
12 Currently all these properties are in the city of
13 Yorkville, so that if somebody wanted to develop
14 those properties in the future , it would be
15 required to bring city services out to those
16 properties , that ' s correct? Unless there is some
17 kind of de-annexation that would happen .
18 MR. OLSON : Not necessarily . You can
19 have developments in the city limits that are on
20 well and septic . It can be a process that we
21 would review it according to our ordinances and
22 it may or may not require City Council approval ,
23 depending on, you know, if they follow our zoning
24 ordinances .
Vitosh Reporting Service
815 . 993 . 2832 cros.vitosh @gmail . com
10
1 MR. BEEN : So that would be one thing we
2 would need to be cautioned about , that
3 development could still happen .
4 Right now there is incentive to not
5 develop it, to develop the property, because
6 there is the special assessment on it, and by
7 removing that, it will become more attractive to
8 development to occur on the properties .
9 MR. OLSON : It ' s highly unlikely that
10 there would be development without municipal
11 utilities extended to the property, but your
12 question was could there be . Yes , there could be
13 if somebody had proposed something that would
14 meet those criteria .
15 MAYOR GOLINSKI : Okay . Anything else
16 before we close the public hearing? Yes , ma ' am.
17 MS . MARY (UNIDENTIFIED) : What else can
18 be developed beside residential land area? I
19 mean, I know it ' s zoned that, but it could always
20 be I ' m sure changed, right , so what other
21 opportunities are you actually looking at there?
22 MAYOR GOLINSKI : We ' re not looking at
23 any opportunities . All right . Anything else
