ALMBURG, d/b/a/ ALMBURG REAL ESTATE, does hereby certify that upon application for appraisal by the residents of Countryside Center, Yorkville, IL. , the following observations are presented. . The property in question is located in Lot 4 , Block 1 of Countryside Center, and is Unit 1 on West Kendall Dr. . The undersigned has been active in this type of appraisal work for the past 32 years, and the undersigned states that he is totally familiar with the area as it now is developed. The undersigned is a registered real estate broker and has been active in evaluating property values and what affect them. The undersigned is a member of the National Association of Real Estate Brokers & Appraisers Association, with the designation of Senior Certified Appraiser. The undersigned further states that he is not related to anyone living in the Countryside Center area, He has no present nor contemplated future interest in the rezoning of the property. His employment is in no way contingent upon the values in this area. The appraiser has done apps;--i.s,'.. an,'- for the Yorkville National Bank, Attorney ' s Dallas Ingemunson & Daniel Kramer, and their names and reputations in the Yorkville area speak for themselves. The actual physical evaluation of the property was made on August 13 , 1992 , and the appraisers evaluation of this property and area reflect that present timeframe. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, JOHN W. ALMBURG has hereunto set his hand and seal on this the 19th day of August, 1992 . -JOHN W. ALMBURG, C. R.E.A. , Appraiser- nsultant � mbur Peal Estate John g I - and Auctioneering R.R.#3,BOX 720 •APPRAISALS• •FARMS•ACREAGE • AURORA,ILLINOIS 60506 •COUNTRY ESTATES AND HOMES PHONE:708-466-4566 • STATEMENT OF APPRAISER On August 13th, 1992 the appraiser inspected the area in Countryside Center where the proposed change of zoning is to take place. This area is legally described as being Lot 4 , Block 1 of Countryside Center in Unit 1 . The access is West Kendall Drive on the North side of the property. The appraiser did not know if access is to be granted off of Rt. . 34 , on the South side of the property. The inspection of the area revealed that there is a fast food establishment (Kentucky Fried Chicken) on the East side of the property and a large office Medical Center building on the Northwest side of the property. There is a retirement center immediately West of the Medical Center, and single and multiple family housing North of West Kendall Drive. It seemes very evident to the appraiser that the type of zoning and special use which is being considered is not at all compatiable with the area. It is the appraisers opinion that values of property in the area would be substantially lowered if the rezoning is granted. There are already other areas near Yorkville that would be far better suited to this type of special use zoning, and the appraiser would also point out that there could be some damaging aspects from a public health standpoint, if this special use is granted. The appraiser would therefore recommend that the special use zoning not be granted under any circumstances. Respectfully submitted, X01114 TJJ.

Usually, the rcg- ? a of •�?: ulations are intended(1) to guide and direct the arrangement and location of land c. uses in accordance with a general development plan for a given jurisdiction;(2)to organize concentrations of populations; (3)to relate density of uses to the proper locations 4 to facilitate adequate provision of transportation,water, sewerage. schools, parks, and other public structures; and (5) to provide for the publick health, security, and general welfare of the citizens of the political jurisdiction. To implement these regulations, the land area is divided into classes of zoning districts which define and group activities that are thought to be compatible. For example, residentially zoned land may be divided into many districts such as ag• r ricultural residential districts and single-family and multifamily residential'dis" t tricts of varying densities. Similarly, classes of commercial, industrial, and a b by r `cial districts may be created to define the "character" of a specific land area 7 J August 20, 1992 There are approximately 69 residents at Hillside Health Center. This is their home! ! ! 8 patients suffer from severe, chronic respiratory disease. 3 of them are on oxygen frequently. All enjoy and look forward to the time they spend outdoors in the fresh air. They will never be able to go outdoors or open their windows once the body shop/muffler shop is in full operation. 19 patients are diagnosed with chronic heart disease. They also will be affected by the fumes of a body shop that will cause increased shortness of breath and their condition will be aggrevated by the noise of cars being repaired. The solarium and the outdoor patio where most of the residents congregate are directly across from the proposed site. What will their lives be without the joy of sitting outdoors with their family and friends? Your will be denying them the pleasure of sitting next to an open window hearing the sounds of birds, a rainstorm or children at play. How will all these changes affect them ? There will be increased depression, confusion and insomnia . There will be loss of appetite. The smallest change in the routine of a nursing home patient can be devastating. 15 residents and 5 of their family members signed a petition opposing the body shop/muffler shop. Most of the others are not able to speak out for themselves. This is why we stand here today to defend the rights of these wonderful people. Since I didn't get an opportunity to speak at the August 13 meeting, I sent a letter to the city council from some of my residents and families that objected to a body and muffler shop being put across the street from us. I would like to comment on the council's suggestion about a committee to speak for the group. Really, we had already gathered a small group of five people. Daniel and Roger Hatcher, Mr. and Mrs. Missing, and myself. We were representing the medical center, the people, and the nursing home residents. Names were presented to the council of people who objected to the re-zoning, but all of this didn't seem to do any good. I also had called before the July meeting and had my name put on the agenda so I could speak. I was not called on to speak. The July meeting was held at the city hall with the council sitting around the table and visitors sitting along the wall. When Mr. Kittoe said "comments" he looked only around the council and then down. He then immediately started taking the vote. I wrote him a letter expressing my concerns about that. I personally got the definite impression that he didn't want to hear any opposition. We were allowed to speak, but the vote had already been taken. Dan Kramer said one of the things we could do was (quote from NP) "persuade one of the council members who voted for approval to bring it up for reconsideration." I didn't know that meant they would vote to see if they would reconsider or not. That there were five nays and two yeas demonstrated the fact that the council didn't want to hear what the people had to say--even with a large turnout, instead of five representatives. As Mrs. Ratos so clearly stated at the August meeting last week, "we the people are sorry we didn't act sooner." However, when the Hatchers, the Missings, and I tried to represent the people we were not received well. It was as though the council had their minds made up and it didn't matter what we had to say. I hope the council will listen to "the People" with open minds, and know that they were elected to represent the people with their votes. Respectfully, Nancy Te emer Administrator Hillside Healthcare Center • y r 20 August 92 Mayor Kittoe and Alderman: I 'm addressing you first in an attempt to affect the tone of our meeting here. Last week the public felt intimidated while as alderman you may have felt assaulted. To what ex- tent either of these impressions was valid I don' t know. It is certain, however, the somewhat hostile atmosphere re- sulting was counterproductive. Let us tonight remember that we are not supposed to be on opposite sides--rather we should be unified in our quest for the public good. You have requested that we bring you professional expert testimony rather than our own opinions and fears. We have done so tonight, and we feel hopeful that you will be grate- ful at the close to have heard them. Some of you have indi- cated that you feel trapped and have asked for a way out, so indulge me for a moment before others begin factual con- siderations and think of the practical situation in which we find ourselves. If you had a son who wanted to plan a trip to Europe with his siblings, you would be on the outset skeptical . Over time he addressed all the questions you had for him. Chaper- ones and destinations . . .each time you had a concern, he had an assurance. Finally, satisfied, you gave him permission. So new clothes were purchased, even a bit of money put down with a travel agent, when suddenly new information became available to you. Suddenly you realize that there are very real dangers involved for your entire family if plans remain on course ! Would you then risk your family' s safety and well being by not changing your mind? Of course not ! Your way out is simply to consider the new evidence and, yes, be grateful for it as it allows you to avoid undesirable con- sequences . Please, then, listen to the following individuals with open minds. Realize that you have heard input from only one person up to this point, a man with considerable personal interest involved. I , myself, have nothing at stake here except an honest desire to see right done. The others to follow seem to me to have the same good motivations. I would respectfully ask that they be heard entirely before rebuttal as Mr. Fisher has already had his time to speak. Please respond yourselves or question each as you see fit . -2- They are as follows : Mr. Bob Johnson Mr. =NEW .'bhN J LMNRCr Mrs .

Statement of Services Environmental Risk Control A major challenge to a majority of organizations and their risk management personnel is dealing with the effects of exposure by the environment. This includes both the effects an organization's own operations may have on the environment, as well as the effects a generally polluted environment may have on the organization. The challenge is compounded by the following factors: How an organization must guard against the large number of potential pollutants and the various ways they are spread. The variety of property, liability, personnel and net income losses that may impact on organizations because of its and others' acts of pollution. Control measures for pollution may involve a single practice or combination of mechanical and administrative, or private and public approaches. ASM subscribes to the approach that an organization interacts with its environment. This relationship is commonly referred to as an Organization/Environment System (OES). An OES contains the organization's activities that may generate the pollutants, the pollutants themselves (hazards), the events (perils) that may cause the pollutants to be released into the environment, the environmental paths (media) through which pollutants are spread, the methods of entry of pollutants into humans, and the adverse effects on humans, the organization and productive assets. Risk Control may be achieved by imposing various measures on the OES. The ARMY approach is similar to the Environmental Site Assessment (ESA). It is case specific in both the risk identification and techniques suggested to reduce or eliminate environmental exposure. The AELSTT staff can assist your organization's environmental risk control and manage- ment efforts in a timely, economical fashion, in order to minimize property liability and net income losses that may affect your organization due to new source federal and state environmental regulations.

Box 269 Geneva, IL 60134 7081232-7304 FAX 7081232-9487 Environmental Site Assessments (ESA) In light of recent and continuing legislative developments, real estate transactions have become increasingly complex. The usual considerations inherent in a real estate transaction are now compounded by a broad range of environmental issues. In a property transaction, the buyer not only assumes the possession of the deed, but now also assumes responsibility for any environmental problems associated with the property. Therefore, it is imperative that the buyer be informed and aware of any potential liability that could arise from past or proposed uses of the site. The buyer needs to anticipate this potential and initiate an Environmental Site Assessment (ESA). ASM has developed an ESA approach to assist our clients in assessing the potential for liability and minimizing the possibility of financial impact. In part, AE5717I has designed its ESA program around the New Jersey Environmental Cleanup Responsibility Act. ENCRA requires that prior to closing, terminating operations or executing an agreement to sell or transfer ownership of an industrial establishment, a General Information Submittal (GIS) and Site Evaluation Submission (SES) be conducted. The attached figure illustrates a phased approach for an ESA. In the case of most commercial properties, the site assessment will not include more than a Phase I work effort and will be sufficient for assessing environmental liability or impairment. Depending on the results of Phase I, additional work (Phase II) may be required prior to the property transaction. Phase II may include the sampling of suspected past discharges, installation of monitor wells and well sampling, or identification of electrical transformers and sampling. Because it is case- specific, Phase II cannot be defined prior to the Phase I results. Recent representative environmental site assessment clients of ASS71f1 include: Azteca Foods, Chicago Barclay Bank N.A., Chicago Conco Western Stone Co.

Michael Meissner - Architect Metro Transportation Group, Inc. - Traffic Engineering, Parking and Transportation Problems TEAM Company - Asbestos Removal and Remediation Environmental Impact Statements The Environmental Impact Statement(EIS)prepared for the Electro-Motive Division of General Motors Corporation in August, 1991, is an example of a comprehensive statement by the AESTI team. One of the team members was W.J. Bauer, who assisted in the preparation of an EIS in 1970 for the Muskegon County Wastewater Management System No. 1. This was one of the first such statements ever compiled under the then new Federal Environmental Regulations. Environmental Assessments Environmental assessments of individual sites have been performed-recently for Barclay Bank, N.A., Chicago; Azteca Foods, Chicago; Conco Western Stone Co.; Suburban National Bank of Elk Grove Village;Electro-Motive Division, General Motors Corporation; Intergovernmental Solid Waste Disposal Association, Champaign, Illinois; Intercontinental Hotel, Chicago; M.A.T. Associates, Chicago; The Lannert Group, St. Charles, Illinois; U. S. Veterans Administration Hospitals. Dr. Wayne Breda was the lead professional in this work. Environmental Audits Several examples of this type of work by AESTI are those listed above as these projects also involved Environmental Audits. Environmental Risk Assessments Staff of AESTI were responsible recently for the Environmental Risk Assessments of two projects for the Sexton Company, Hillside, Illinois. One of these is a large landfill occupying about 300 acres of space between 31st and 22nd Streets, just east of Interstate Highway 294. The other one is a landfill being constructed in an existing dolomite quarry just north of Interstate Highway 90 and west of U.S. Highway 45 in the same area of suburban Chicago. In both cases, the concern was possible contamination of ground water under lands adjacent to these landfills. The direction of ground water movement was a key factor in the analysis. Monitoring wells installed to determine piezometric surface as well as to take samples for continuous analysis. Historic Resource Assessment and Surveys This aspect of environmental work by AESTI is undertaken by the firm of Historic Resources, Ltd., (Hasbrouck Peterson Associates, architects in Chicago), as a joint venture partner or subcontractor to AESTI. Principal examples of work by that firm are: (1) The Lincoln Home, Springfield, Illinois (2) State Capitol Building, Springfield, Illinois (3) Dearborn Railroad Station, Chicago, Illinois (4) Cape May Lighthouse, Cape May, New Jersey (5) Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, Buxton, North Carolina. National Register of Historic Places Nominations This work will also be joint ventured or subcontracted for AESTI by Historic Resources, Ltd., whose experience in this area is also illustrated by the projects mentioned above under Historic Resource Assessment and Surveys. Integrated Natural Resource Management Plans Mr. Greg Hultman, affiliated with AESTI, has throughout his professional career approached every project assignment as a challenge to achieve an integrated plan for the management of natural resources. Laboratory Analysis Gulf Coast Laboratories, a Contract Laboratory for the Illinois E.P.A. and for the Corps of Engineers is recognized as one of the more competent laboratories in the environmental field, with a broad range of experience. This laboratory will perform all of the analytical work for AESIT unless agency conflict would arise due to previous contract commitments. Detail Record and Title Searches Searching of records and titles in detail is subcontracted by AESTI to Chicago Title and Trust Co., which operates throughout the United States and employs several hundred specialists in some 4000 offices. They have decades of experience. Radon Monitoring Gulf Coast Laboratories previously mentioned, is thoroughly experienced in this type of monitoring work and would perform this function for AESTI where required. Hazardous and Toxic Waste Site Analysis Dr. Wayne J. Breda has directed studies of this type related to existing landfills where ground water contamination was a major concern. This work involved sampling of the ground water, the analysis of samples for priority pollutants, the determination of the piezometric surface and direction of ground water flow and the recommendations for solutions to the problems delineated. Geotechnical Investigations Mr. Acker, Mr. Peter Braam, Dr. James Jennings, Dr. Laura Sanders and Dr. Charles Shabica have been involved over a period of years in the planning and specifying of the geological and geotechnical investigations for the Deep Tunnel Plan for the (then)Metropolitan Sanitary District of Greater Chicago. This involved seismic surveys to map interfaces between geological units over an area of 375 square miles, using a fleet of computerized trucks which generated and received seismic waves for the purpose of this underground mapping. This work also involved geophysical bore-hole logging, taking advantage of the many deep wells throughout the Chicago region from which a variety of data could be obtained, as well as Superfund RIFS studies, quarrying and mining operations. Monitoring Well Installations Mr. Acker, Mr. Peter Braam, Dr. Wayne Breda, Dr. James Jennings and Dr. Laura Sanders have significant experience in monitoring well design and installation. This includes piezometric heads, pumping wells and pollutant monitoring systems in landfills and regional ground water and aquifer supplies. Ground and Water Quality Assessments Bradley Piper directed all sampling and laboratory work to monitor the heavy-metal content of soils before and after application of controlled quantities of digested waste activated sludge from treatment plants in the Chicago region to farmland in central Illinois. In this study, the ground water was monitored by sampling the outflow of existing farm drain pipes installed under the area to which the sludge was applied. Beyond this, the uptake of heavy-metals by plants (corn and soy beans) was sampled and analyzed by an independent agronomy laboratory. This work involved hundreds of acres of farmland, and hundred of thousands of tons of digested sewage sludge and was undertaken over a period of five years. Sufficient data were taken so that a materials balance could be calculated for each of seven heavy metals studied. Topographic Surveys Mr. Robert Easton, a member of the AESTX team, is responsible for all topographical surveying work. Mr. Easton has advanced education as well as extensive experience in all facets of photogrammetry surveying, which includes ground control work, aerial photography, and plotting of maps from the photogrammetry models set up in the laboratory. Aerial Photograph Interpretation Interpretation of aerial photographic information is a skill common to AESTA staff, including Dr. Breda, Dr. James Jennings, Dr. Laura Sanders, Dr. Charles Shabica and Bradley Piper, P.E., as well as Robert Easton. Such interpretation is widely used in the typical AESTI environmental project. Interpretation practices by AESTA staff is often in conjunction with a field trip to verify the nature of soils and flora of a particular site, with the aerial data being used extensively in the field as well as the engineering offices. AESTA staff are experienced in specifying and use of carefully enlarged aerial photographs to permit scaling of significant dimensions from them. Data Interpretations AESTA staff are cognizant of the basic mathematics of statistical sampling and analysis, commonly using these skills in the analysis of hydrological data and other scientific data. These skills extend to the discerning of overlapping populations within a body of data, and the separate analysis of each population. Several AESTA staff are persons with medical degrees, and are skilled in the interpretation of biological., physiological and toxicological data, such as might be obtained from laboratory and epidemiological studies of persons and habitats with an area or region.
