IN ATTENDANCE:
Committee Members
Chairman Chris Funkhouser Alderman Ken Koch
Alderman Jackie Milschewski Alderman Larry Kot
Other City Officials
Public Works Director Eric Dhuse
Engineer Brad Sanderson, EEI
Other Guests: None
The meeting was called to order at 6:00pm by Chairman Chris Funkhouser.
Citizen Comments: None
Previous Meeting Minutes: October 18, 2016
The minutes were approved as presented.
New Business:
1. PW 2016-74 Meeting Schedule for 2017
There was no discussion and the committee was OK with the schedule.
2. PW 2016-75 2017 Road to Better Roads Program
Mr. Sanderson said there is a recommended plan for the next FY along with a 5-year plan and they are
seeking approval. Mr. Kot asked if State St. by Hydraulic and Van Emmon is scheduled for next year
since residents had been told it would be repaved. It is currently on the alternative list and Mr. Dhuse
explained some parking lots are in very bad shape. Mr. Koch asked about Walsh Drive to Greenbriar
and said that it's worn down to the gravel in some areas. Mr. Sanderson said there is some flexibility
with the program which is based on an analysis done in 2012. City staff will monitor the streets this
winter rather than having a new study which would cost about $100,000. Mr. Dhuse added that this
year's program was a catch-up list.
Alderman Milschewski inquired about the rating system to determine the repaving schedule and an
explanation was given. There is approximately $700,000 of roadwork to be done next year (not
Page 2 of 2
including the parking lots).
The alley between State and Main was discussed and it will be staked and the matter revisited.
Kennedy Road was also discussed.
Mr. Sanderson asked for approval of the recommended list and engineering agreements so EEI can
move forward. It is hoped to obtain IDOT approval and let bids in February to take advantage of some
favorable prices. Chairman Funkhouser asked the committee to approve the 2017 program, the
alternatives and the 5-year plan and forward it to the Council on the consent agenda.
3. PW 2016-76 Professional Services Agreement for 2017 Road to Better Roads Program
This is the standard agreement to prepare the documents for bid-letting using MFT and local funds,
IDOT approval and for construction engineering. This moves forward to the November 22nd consent
agenda.
4. PW 2016-77 Mill Street LAFO – Authorization No. 2
This is the second authorization for LAFO and the balancing change order is a decrease of $29,769.48.
The total decrease is $34,269.48. Ms. Milschewski said there were many compliments on the job. This
moves to the November 22nd consent agenda.
Old Business: None
Additional Business:
Alderman Kot noted a shoulder drop-off near Autumn Creek and asked for gravel fill. He also asked
about electrical boxes near Kennedy and McHugh which are half open. It was determined they are
phone boxes and pose no danger.
Lights with higher wattages are still needed on both ends of Windett according to Alderman Koch and
Mr. Dhuse will address this matter.
The new street lights in the City have received favorable comments and installation is nearly complete.
Alderman Milschewski noted there is only one at the north end of the park. Placement was made there
to not block the eternal flame.
Mr. Kot requested more crossing signage on Rt. 47 near Hydraulic for safety reasons. Mr. Dhuse
replied that he does not want to encourage crossing at that point, but will make it as safe as possible.
He said 2 near accidents have occurred near pedestrian signs when driver views are obstructed due to
multiple traffic lanes.
Chairman Funkhouser requested an update on the street sale sign. Over $400 has been generated
through sales and remaining signs will be sold at another time.
There was no further business and the meeting was adjourned at 6:34pm.

Snow Operations Update

Breakdown of snow removal operations for the month of December.

Summary
Monthly report of manpower, resources and time spent snow plowing and salting
Background
12/4/16 - started at approximately 12:30 pm and ended at approximately 8:45pm. 7 large dump
trucks and 2 small dump trucks were used to remove snow and salt. This is one large dump truck
short of a full crew. 9 employees earned 74.25 hours of overtime and our foreman worked 9
hours as well. Approximately 100 tons of salt were used along with 3000 gallons of brine to
complete the operation.
12/11/16 – started at approximately 5:00am and ended at approximately 12:00pm. 7 large dump
trucks and 2 small dump trucks were used to remove snow and spread salt. This is one large
dump truck short of a full crew. 9 employees earned 63 hours of overtime and our foreman
worked 8 hours as well. Approximately 100 tons of salt were used along with 3000 gallons of
brine
12/12/16 – started at 3:00 am and finished approximately 3:30 pm. 6 large dump trucks were
used, including one that the plow only angled right for the entire removal operation. At 7:00am,
we added all additional employees to plow, shovel walks and salt. 9 employees earned 36 hours
of overtime before starting their normal 8 hour work day. Our foreman also worked an extra 4
hours ahead of schedule. with the entire crew on at 7:00, we have an additional approximately
160 hours of snow removal time. The salt usage was approximately 75-100 tons and 1500
gallons of brine due to the fact that some streets did not need salt.
We had one truck in the shop with starting issues, and one that had an electrical
problem. We also had one of the small dump trucks break a drive chain for the spreader, so it
was out of commission for a few hours as well. During this time, we also had a water main
break on Appletree Ct. that took away 4 crew members for approximately 4 hours.
In hindsight, we should have been back out on Sunday night instead of waiting until early
Monday morning. Temperatures were warm enough to let traffic pack down the snow and turn it
to a sheet of ice. If we would have been right on it, we would not have any lingering slick spots
at this time. We will be right on it next time instead of trying to conserve manpower and
resources.
12/13/16 – started at 7:00 am and finished at approximately 3:30 pm. 8 large dump trucks and 2
small dump trucks were used to scrape slick spots and spread salt. Brine and salt usage were

Subject: Monthly snow report
approximately cut in half to 50 tons and 1500 gallons since we were spot salting. This has
improved our road conditions tremendously and we will continue this operation on 12/14/16 as
well.
At this time, we have approximately 150-200 tons of salt on hand, and another 460 tons
on order. With the 460 ton order, we are at our minimum order for the year through the state bid.
We can take an additional 480 tons at our bid price for a total of 1440 tons. We also have 1000
tons of salt in storage at the Kendall County Highway Department building. With the brine
making machine, we have almost unlimited brine making capabilities as well.
Recommendation
With snow forecast for Friday night into Saturday morning, we are also preparing for our
next operation. We are going to pre-wet the streets with brine to try and create a thin layer of
salt that will not allow the snow to stick to the pavement, making it easier for us to plow off the
streets. I will give a verbal report at the meeting as to how it worked out for us.

Route 47 ITEP (Streetlights)
Public Works Committee – December 20, 2016
Consideration of Approval
Consideration of Authorization Nos. 2, 3 & 4
Brad Sanderson Engineering
Name Department
The purpose of this memo is to present Authorizations 2, 3 & 4 for the above referenced project.
An authorization, as defined by IDOT, is the written approval of a contract change and the
written directive to the contractor to perform said work. By this definition, it alters the contract
work from that awarded under the competitive bidding process. An Authorization of Contract
Changes signed by the Regional Engineer signifies completed review of and support for the
change proposed.
Background:
The State of Illinois and Thorne Electric, Inc. entered into an agreement for a contract value of
$401,463.02 for the above referenced project. Construction began on October 11, 2016 and the
project is substantially complete.
The construction costs are being funded by ITEP funds (federal) and local funds. The maximum
federal participation amount is $390,410.00, inclusive of all change orders (authorizations)
associated with this contract.
Questions Presented:
Should the City approve Authorizations Nos. 2 ($540.00), 3 ($1,623.00) and 4 ($2,625.00) in the
amount of $4,788.00?
Discussion:
Authorization No. 2 covers additional labor and equipment required to clearing duct
obstructions, including:
A fish tape was used to pull wire under IL-47 from Lighting Controller 1 to Handhole 7.
The fish tape was used because the pull cord which was supposed to be installed under
the IL-47 reconstruction project was not present.
An obstruction was encountered in the existing duct from Handhole 7 to Handhole 11.
Wires were installed individually, to pass the obstruction in the duct resulting in
additional effort required to complete the work.

Krysti Barksdale-Noble, Community Dev. Dir.
Lisa Pickering, Deputy City Clerk
Date: December 8, 2016
Subject: Route 47 ITEP (Streetlights)– Authorizations 2, 3 & 4
Authorization No. 3 covers material expenses incurred by the contractor, including:
The existing anchor bolts at the foundations constructed during the IL-47 reconstruction
project did not have the required hardware to attach the light poles. The contractor was
required to procure the nuts, washers and lock washers in order to attach the poles.
Authorization No. 4 covers additional labor and equipment required to cleaning threads on the
existing anchor bolts, including:
The anchor bolts at the foundations constructed during the IL-47 reconstruction project
were not protected when the concrete foundations were poured which caused the threads
to become coated in concrete paste. The paste on the threads prevented the leveling nuts
from screwing down the anchor bolts. The contractor was required to clean the threads of
the anchor bolts using hand tools and a wire brush wheel.
The net change to date for authorizations is $7,100.64 which is a 1.77% increase to the original
contract value bringing a revised contract value to date of $408,564.66. The City will be
responsible for 20% of the total or $1,420.13.
We have attached IDOT form BC-22 for Authorization Nos. 2, 3 & 4 for your information. All
authorizations have a pre-approval from the IDOT District 3 Local Agency Bureau of
Construction Engineer.
We are recommending approval of the Authorizations.
Action Required:
Consideration of approval from the City Council for Authorizations 2, 3 & 4.

the OWNER, appropriate Federal, State, and local agencies from whom approval of the project
must be obtained. The cost of such drawings, specifications, and contract documents shall be
included in the basic compensation paid to the ENGINEER.
5. The ENGINEER will furnish additional copies of the drawings, specifications and contract
documents as required by prospective bidders, material suppliers, and other interested parties,
but may charge them for the reasonable cost of such copies. Upon award of each contract, the
2
ENGINEER will furnish to the OWNER five sets of the drawings, specifications and contract
documents for execution. The cost of these sets shall be included in the basic compensation paid
to the ENGINEER. Original documents, survey notes, tracings, and the like, except those
furnished to the ENGINEER by the OWNER, are and shall remain the property of the
ENGINEER.
6. The drawings prepared by the ENGINEER under the provisions of Section A-2 above shall be in
sufficient detail to permit the actual location of the proposed improvements on the ground. The
ENGINEER shall prepare and furnish to the OWNER without any additional compensation,
three copies of map(s) showing the general location of needed construction easements and
permanent easements and the land to be acquired. Property surveys, property plats, property
descriptions, abstracting and negotiations for land rights shall be accomplished by the OWNER,

SECTION B - PROFESSIONAL CONSTRUCTION ENGINEERING SERVICES
The ENGINEER shall furnish professional construction engineering services as follows:
1. The ENGINEER will review, for conformance with the design concept, shop and working
drawings required by the construction Contract Documents and indicate on the drawings the
action taken. Such action shall be taken with reasonable promptness.
2. The ENGINEER will interpret the intent of the drawings and specifications to protect the
OWNER against defects and deficiencies in construction on the part of the contractors. The
ENGINEER will not, however, guarantee the performance by any contractor.
3. The ENGINEER will evaluate and determine acceptability of substitute materials and equipment
proposed by Contractor(s).
4. The ENGINEER will establish baselines for locating the work together with a suitable number of
bench marks adjacent to the work as shown in the contract documents.
5. The ENGINEER will provide general engineering review of the work of the contractor(s) as
construction progresses to ascertain that the contactor is conforming to the design concept.
(a) ENGINEER shall have authority, as the OWNER’s representative, to require special
inspection of or testing of the work, and shall receive and review all certificates of
inspections, testing and approvals required by laws, rules, regulations, ordinances, codes,
orders or the Contract Documents (but only to determine generally that their content
complies with requirements of, and the results certified indicate compliance with, the
Contract Documents).
(b) During such engineering review, ENGINEER shall have the authority, as the OWNER’s
representative, to disapprove of or reject contractor(s)’ work while it is in progress if
ENGINEER believes that such work will not produce a completed Project that conforms
generally to the Contract Documents or that it will prejudice the integrity of the design
concept of the Project as reflected in the Contract Documents.
4
6. The ENGINEER will provide resident construction observation. Resident construction
observation shall consist of visual inspection of materials, equipment, or construction work for
the purpose of ascertaining that the work is in substantial conformance with the contract
documents and with the design intent. Such observation shall not be relied upon by others as
acceptance of the work. The ENGINEER’s undertaking hereunder shall not relieve the
contractor of contractor’s obligation to perform the work in conformity with the drawings and
specifications and in a workmanlike manner; shall not make the ENGINEER an insurer of the
contractor’s performance; and shall not impose upon the ENGINEER any obligation to see that
the work is performed in a safe manner. Exhibit 2 - The Limitations of Authority, Duties and
Responsibilities of the Resident Construction Observer is attached to this Agreement.
7. The ENGINEER will cooperate and work closely with representatives of the OWNER.
8. Based on the ENGINEER’s on-site observations as an experienced and qualified design

of applications for payment with the accompanying data and schedules by the contractor, the
ENGINEER:
(a) Shall determine the amounts owing to contractor(s) and recommend in writing payments
to contractor(s) in such amounts. Such recommendations of payment will constitute a
representation to OWNER, based on such observations and review, that the work has
progressed to the point indicated, and that, to the best of the ENGINEER’s knowledge,
information and belief, the quality of such work is generally in accordance with the
Contract Documents (subject to an evaluation of such work as a functioning whole prior
to or upon substantial completion, to the results of any subsequent tests called for in the
Contract Documents, and to any other qualifications stated in the recommendation).
(b) By recommending any payment, ENGINEER will not hereby be deemed to have
represented that exhaustive, continuous or detailed reviews or examinations have been
made by ENGINEER to check the quality or quantity of contractor(s)’ work as it is
furnished and performed beyond the responsibilities specifically assigned to ENGINEER
in the Agreement and the Contract Documents. ENGINEER’s review of contractor(s)’
5
work for the purposes of recommending payments will not impose on Engineer
responsibility to supervise, direct or control such work or for the means, methods,
techniques, sequences, or procedures of construction or safety precautions or programs
incident thereto or contractor(s) compliance with laws, rules, regulations, ordinances,
codes or orders applicable to their furnishing and performing the work. It will also not
impose responsibility on ENGINEER to make any examination to ascertain how or for
what purposes any contractor has used the moneys paid on account of the Contract Price,
or to determine that title to any of the work, materials equipment has passed to OWNER
free and clear of any lien, claims, security interests, or encumbrances, or that there may
not be other matters at issue between OWNER and contractor that might affect the
amount that should be paid.
9. The ENGINEER will prepare necessary contract change orders for approval of the OWNER, and
others on a timely basis.
10. The ENGINEER will make a final review prior to the issuance of the statement of substantial
completion of all construction and submit a written report to the OWNER. Prior to submitting

written acceptance of the facility from the OWNER.
11. The ENGINEER will provide the OWNER with one set of reproducible record (as-built)
drawings, and two sets of prints at no additional cost to the OWNER. Such drawings will be
based upon construction records provided by the contractor during construction and reviewed by
the resident construction observer and from the resident construction observer’s construction
data.
12. If State Statutes require notices and advertisements of final payment, the ENGINEER shall assist
in their preparation.
13. The ENGINEER will be available to furnish engineering services and consultations necessary to
correct unforeseen project operation difficulties for a period of one year after the date of
statement of substantial completion of the facility. This service will include instruction of the
OWNER in initial project operation and maintenance but will not include supervision of normal

operation of the system. Such consultation and advice shall be at the hourly rates as described in
the attached Exhibit 6: Standard Schedule of Charges dated January 1, 2016. The ENGINEER
will assist the OWNER in performing a review of the project during the 11th month after the
date of the certificate of substantial completion.
14. The ENGINEER further agrees to obtain and maintain, at the ENGINEER’s expense, such
insurance as will protect the ENGINEER from claims under the Workman’s Compensation Act
and such comprehensive general liability insurance as will protect the OWNER and the
ENGINEER from all claims for bodily injury, death, or property damage which may arise from
the performance by the ENGINEER or by the ENGINEER’s employees of the ENGINEER’s
functions and services required under this Agreement.

3
SECTION B - PROFESSIONAL CONSTRUCTION ENGINEERING SERVICES
The ENGINEER shall furnish professional construction engineering services as follows:
1. The ENGINEER will review, for conformance with the design concept, shop and working
drawings required by the construction Contract Documents and indicate on the drawings the
action taken. Such action shall be taken with reasonable promptness.
2. The ENGINEER will interpret the intent of the drawings and specifications to protect the
OWNER against defects and deficiencies in construction on the part of the contractors. The
ENGINEER will not, however, guarantee the performance by any contractor.
3. The ENGINEER will evaluate and determine acceptability of substitute materials and equipment
proposed by Contractor(s).
4. The ENGINEER will establish baselines for locating the work together with a suitable number of
bench marks adjacent to the work as shown in the contract documents.
5. The ENGINEER will provide general engineering review of the work of the contractor(s) as
construction progresses to ascertain that the contactor is conforming to the design concept.
(a) ENGINEER shall have authority, as the OWNER’s representative, to require special
inspection of or testing of the work, and shall receive and review all certificates of
inspections, testing and approvals required by laws, rules, regulations, ordinances, codes,
orders or the Contract Documents (but only to determine generally that their content
complies with requirements of, and the results certified indicate compliance with, the
Contract Documents).
(b) During such engineering review, ENGINEER shall have the authority, as the OWNER’s
representative, to disapprove of or reject contractor(s)’ work while it is in progress if
ENGINEER believes that such work will not produce a completed Project that conforms
generally to the Contract Documents or that it will prejudice the integrity of the design
concept of the Project as reflected in the Contract Documents.
4
6. The ENGINEER will provide resident construction observation. Resident construction
observation shall consist of visual inspection of materials, equipment, or construction work for
the purpose of ascertaining that the work is in substantial conformance with the contract
documents and with the design intent. Such observation shall not be relied upon by others as
acceptance of the work. The ENGINEER’s undertaking hereunder shall not relieve the
contractor of contractor’s obligation to perform the work in conformity with the drawings and
specifications and in a workmanlike manner; shall not make the ENGINEER an insurer of the
contractor’s performance; and shall not impose upon the ENGINEER any obligation to see that
the work is performed in a safe manner. Exhibit 2 - The Limitations of Authority, Duties and
Responsibilities of the Resident Construction Observer is attached to this Agreement.
7. The ENGINEER will cooperate and work closely with representatives of the OWNER.
8. Based on the ENGINEER’s on-site observations as an experienced and qualified design
professional, on information provided by the Resident Construction Observer, and upon review
of applications for payment with the accompanying data and schedules by the contractor, the
ENGINEER:
(a) Shall determine the amounts owing to contractor(s) and recommend in writing payments
to contractor(s) in such amounts. Such recommendations of payment will constitute a
representation to OWNER, based on such observations and review, that the work has
progressed to the point indicated, and that, to the best of the ENGINEER’s knowledge,
information and belief, the quality of such work is generally in accordance with the
Contract Documents (subject to an evaluation of such work as a functioning whole prior
to or upon substantial completion, to the results of any subsequent tests called for in the
Contract Documents, and to any other qualifications stated in the recommendation).
(b) By recommending any payment, ENGINEER will not hereby be deemed to have
represented that exhaustive, continuous or detailed reviews or examinations have been
made by ENGINEER to check the quality or quantity of contractor(s)’ work as it is
furnished and performed beyond the responsibilities specifically assigned to ENGINEER
in the Agreement and the Contract Documents. ENGINEER’s review of contractor(s)’
5
work for the purposes of recommending payments will not impose on Engineer
responsibility to supervise, direct or control such work or for the means, methods,
techniques, sequences, or procedures of construction or safety precautions or programs
incident thereto or contractor(s) compliance with laws, rules, regulations, ordinances,
codes or orders applicable to their furnishing and performing the work. It will also not
impose responsibility on ENGINEER to make any examination to ascertain how or for
what purposes any contractor has used the moneys paid on account of the Contract Price,
or to determine that title to any of the work, materials equipment has passed to OWNER
free and clear of any lien, claims, security interests, or encumbrances, or that there may
not be other matters at issue between OWNER and contractor that might affect the
amount that should be paid.
9. The ENGINEER will prepare necessary contract change orders for approval of the OWNER, and
others on a timely basis.
10. The ENGINEER will make a final review prior to the issuance of the statement of substantial
completion of all construction and submit a written report to the OWNER. Prior to submitting
the final pay estimate, the ENGINEER shall submit the statement of completion to and obtain the
written acceptance of the facility from the OWNER.
11. The ENGINEER will provide the OWNER with one set of reproducible record (as-built)
drawings, and two sets of prints at no additional cost to the OWNER. Such drawings will be
based upon construction records provided by the contractor during construction and reviewed by
the resident construction observer and from the resident construction observer’s construction
data.
12. If State Statutes require notices and advertisements of final payment, the ENGINEER shall assist
in their preparation.
13. The ENGINEER will be available to furnish engineering services and consultations necessary to
correct unforeseen project operation difficulties for a period of one year after the date of
statement of substantial completion of the facility. This service will include instruction of the
OWNER in initial project operation and maintenance but will not include supervision of normal
6
operation of the system. Such consultation and advice shall be at the hourly rates as described in
the attached Exhibit 6: Standard Schedule of Charges dated January 1, 2016. The ENGINEER
will assist the OWNER in performing a review of the project during the 11th month after the
date of the certificate of substantial completion.
14. The ENGINEER further agrees to obtain and maintain, at the ENGINEER’s expense, such
insurance as will protect the ENGINEER from claims under the Workman’s Compensation Act
and such comprehensive general liability insurance as will protect the OWNER and the
ENGINEER from all claims for bodily injury, death, or property damage which may arise from
the performance by the ENGINEER or by the ENGINEER’s employees of the ENGINEER’s
functions and services required under this Agreement.
15. The ENGINEER will provide construction engineering services in accordance with the periods
summarized in Exhibit 4: “Anticipated Project Schedule – West Washington Street Water Main
Replacement” dated November 23, 2016.
If the above is not accomplished within the time period specified, this Agreement may be terminated by

Public Works Committee – December 20, 2016
Consideration of Approval
Acceptance Consideration
Brad Sanderson Engineering
Name Department
The developer has requested that the City accept the public improvements within the project for
ownership and maintenance.
At this time all work related to the public improvements, including punch list work has been
completed.
Attached is the draft Bill of Sale for the development. We will forward the document to the
developer for execution. We recommend that the public improvements as described in the Bill
of Sale be accepted for ownership and maintenance by the City.
Normally with final acceptance, a performance guarantee (cash, LOC or bond) equal to 10% of
the original security value is to be on file with the City Clerk for a period of one year. Since the
improvements have been constructed and functional for quite some time, we are recommending
full release of the existing security ($3,774.09).
Upon City Council approval of the acceptance and the receipt of the executed Bill of Sale, the
existing security may then be released. If you have any questions or require additional
information, please call.

Well No. 3 Update
Public Works Committee – December 20, 2016
Consideration of Approval to Abandon Well
Consideration of Abandoning the Well
Brad Sanderson Engineering
Name Department
The City Council at the August 23, 2016 meeting authorized Layne to pull the pump and motor and
televise the well. Layne has completed the work and has provided the well televising report. The purpose
of this memo is to provide comment on the report and to discuss long term options for Well No. 3.
Background:
Well No. 3 historically produces 600-650 gpm and is currently used as a back-up water source. It is also
known as a “sand pumper”. The volume of sand that is produced by the well is considered to be high and
is directly attributable to the more frequent rehabilitations of this well. A sand separator is utilized to
capture the sand from the well prior to entering the system. The separator in the past has had to be
replaced frequently when the well was more heavily used. By comparison, the City’s other wells produce
1,000 gpm each.
Well No. 3’s history is summarized below:
Past (Through Discussion With Tom Healy of Layne Western)
1960 Well Drilled; Utilized Westinghouse/US Motors
1972 Installed Rebuilt Byron Jackson Motor (BJ)
1983 Possible Well Rehabilitation (Records Not Clear)
1991 Well Development; Installed 175 HP BJ
1998 Motor OK; Bowls Worn Badly; Pump Rebuilt
Recent Past (2004 – 2009)
2004 Motor Failure; Installed 200 HP rebuilt BJ motor; Corrosion of 16” Casing
evident
2008 Pump Pulled due to Motor Issue; Installed 150 HP BJ Rebuilt Motor;
Rebuilt Bowl Assembly;
2009 Pump Pulled; Bowl Assembly Badly Worn and was Rebuilt;
Well No. 3’s recent repair costs have been as follows:
2004 $89,234 New 200 HP Type H Rebuilt BJ Motor; Replaced 9 Stage – 11 MQH
BJ Bowl Assembly
2008 $99,617 New 150 HP 14” Type H Rebuilt BJ Motor; Rebuilt BJ Bowl
Assembly; 12 – 8” Line Pipe Segments Were Cut & Rethread; Replacement of 5
Couplings; Replacement of 8” Surge Valve
2009 $21,216 Pump Rebuilt
Rehabilitation/Repair of the Well tends to be on a 4 – 7 Year Cycle.
Memorandum
To: Bart Olson, City Administrator
From: Brad Sanderson, EEI
CC: Eric Dhuse, Director of Public Works
Lisa Pickering, Deputy City Clerk
Date: December 12, 2016
Subject: Well No. 3
Question Presented:
Should the City consider rehabilitating well and keep it part of the water system or should the City
consider abandoning the well?
Discussion:
The televising of the well indicates that the bottom of the casing is in poor condition. There are major
chunks of steel that have fully deteriorated away. A casing pipe in poor condition makes it difficult
(sometimes impossible) to install and pull equipment in and out of the well. Layne recommends
installing a new casing within the existing if this well were to be put back in service.
The installation of a new casing would require a new pump and motor as the existing components would
not fit within the new casing. Layne is estimating that the new casing, pump and motor and associated
labor could approach $200,000.
As noted above, Well No. 3 has been used minimally in the past several years. Per our needs assessment
calculations, a new well will be needed if we choose to abandon Well 3 as follows:
Current Trends (CT) Water Use
With Well No. 3 Active: 2028 (12 Years)
Without Well No. 3: 2023 (7 Years)
Less Resource Intensive (LRI) Water Use
With Well No. 3 Active: 2034 (18 Years)
Without Well No. 3: 2030 (14 Years)
As you know, per capita water use trends are generally going down. Therefore, it is probably a
reasonable assumption that we would need another well in 8 – 10 years.
Action Required:
Staff is recommending that the well be abandoned at this time for the following reasons:
1. Condition of the casing
2. High cost to make well usable
3. Rehabilitation history / sand pumping
4. Low production
5. Location
There are costs associated with abandoning the well. Layne has provided an estimate on the well alone.
They are summarized below:
Well Abandonment $35,500 - $38,500
Salvage Value of Misc. Equip. ($1,894) Credit
Pump and Motor Decommissioning $13,800 (Note Layne has offered to purchase; net cost could be
$0)
The costs to abandon the Well No. 3 building have not been determined at this time. This would be
addressed sometime in early 2017.
Staff is seeking support from the City Council to move forward with the Well No. 3 abandonment.

Sugar Grove, IL 60554
RE: United City of Yorkville
Well No. 3
Dear Brad:
Per our conference call, we are pleased to submit our proposal to properly abandon the City’s Well
No. 3.
The proper abandonment of Well No. 3 would fall under the jurisdiction of the Kendall County Health
Department (KCHD) and must be performed by an Illinois Licensed Water Well Contractor. In a typical
well abandonment project, we would contact KCHD ahead of time to obtain their approval of our
proposed plugging procedure. For this estimate, we assume the following procedure would be suitable
to KCHD:
• Backfill with disinfected pea gravel from the existing depth of 1,298 feet to 825 feet, or just below
the bottom of the 12” liner.
• Backfill the well with bentonite chips from 825 feet to 700 feet, the necessary plug to isolate the
St. Peter and Galesville sandstones.
• Backfill with disinfected pea gravel from 700 feet to approximately 450 feet, or 20 feet below the
16” well casing.
• Backfill from 450 feet to ground level with bentonite chips.
Prior to the commencement of the well abandonment work, KCHD would be contacted at least 48 hours
in advance so that they can witness all or part of the abandonment. Following the completion of the
work, Layne, as an Illinois Licensed Water Well Contractor, would fill out and submit the necessary
Water Well Sealing Form.
Based upon the above abandonment procedure, the total cost would be in the range of $35,500.00 to
$38,500.00.
As you know, the 150 HP Byron Jackson Type H submersible pump was pulled so that the television
survey could be performed. The pump is currently in storage in our Aurora, Illinois yard. Should the

Engineering Enterprises, Inc.

final decision be made to abandon Well No. 3, this pump would need to be disposed of properly since
it is smaller than any of the other city well pumps.
We have estimated needing 48,000 lbs. of bentonite chips and 44 tons of disinfected pea gravel. For
more or less of these quantities, we would add or deduct $0.27/lb. and $70.00/ton, respectively.
Due to the July, 2012 IEPA legislation concerning mercury seals in motors, the 150 HP Byron Jackson
submersible motor must be properly decommissioned. As the Byron Jackson dealer in northern Illinois,
Layne strongly recommends the use of Flowserve/Byron Jackson’s authorized decommissioning
subcontractor, Bethlehem Apparatus. Bethlehem Apparatus would receive the motor in its present
condition, completely disassemble the motor, and decommission all motor parts such that they can
attest to the fact that 99.9% of the mercury has been removed and disposed of properly. An official
certificate would be provided to the City to back up this documentation. Without this documentation,
the City would have no clue if the disposal was done properly, opening itself up for the possibility of
future repercussions.
Including the truck freight to Pennsylvania for this work, the total cost of the motor decommissioning
would be $13,800.00.
Since Layne would see some value in this motor for use in a possible temporary test pump installation
in the future, we could offer to completely credit this decommissioning cost if ownership of the motor is
turned over to Layne. We would not be able to provide any additional credits over and above the
savings in the decommissioning costs, since this motor cannot be resold.
If Layne were to be awarded the well abandonment project, we could also offer salvage value for the 8”
column pipe, power cable, and the 9 Stage – 11MQL Byron Jackson cast iron bowl assembly. Again,
there is very little resale value, so we are essentially talking about the scrap value for these components,
and/or used in possible test pump applications. From our best estimation, this would fall in the range
of $1,894.00 that would be applied as a credit to the well abandonment costs above.
We appreciate the opportunity to be able to provide these estimates. If you have any questions, please
don’t hesitate to give us a call.
Yours very truly,
Thomas P. Healy

Solid Waste – RFP Results
Public Works Committee – December 20, 2016

Approval
See attached.
Bart Olson Administration
Name Department
Summary
Discussion of the proposals received for the City’s Solid Waste RFP.
Background
The city went out for Request for Proposal on October 3, 2016. Five proposals were received on
November 3, 2016 from Advanced Disposal, Environmental Recycling and Disposal Service, Groot,
Republic and Waste Management. A summary of the pricing results are attached. Two companies,
Advanced Disposal and Groot, submitted bids for services that are a significant savings (approximately
15%) over our current contract and for better service, and cheaper than Oswego’s contract extension.
The City’s current contract expires on April 30, 2017 and the current rate is $19.25. Advanced Disposal
bid a three-tier pricing structure outlining prices for a 33 gallon, 65 gallon and 96 gallon toter and Groot
did one-tier for all sizes of toters. Advanced Disposals 33 gallon price is $35 cheaper for a resident than
Groot’s over a five year period. Advanced Disposal’s 65 gallon price is $0.24 cheaper for a resident
than Groot’s over a five year period. Advanced Disposal’s 96 gallon price is $28 more expensive for a
resident than Groot’s over a five year period. Advanced Disposal included free composting in yard
waste bags during yard waste pickup season, but did not offer composting over the winter months.
Groot’s proposal was for year-round composting at a $10 fee per month. Groot approached the City
post-bid opening and offered to give the City tipping fees for refuse and recycling collected. This
amount was roughly $14,000 annually, but I did not consider it valid because it was not included in the
written submittal and it was submitted after the bid opening.
Recommendation
Staff recommends moving forward with a new contract with Advanced Disposal because they are
cheaper in aggregate (33 gal, 65 gal and 96 added together) and cheaper in two out of the three
individual categories. Additionally, the City would not have to go through a hauler transition. If the
Committee and the City Council agrees, staff would draft a contract for approval at a City Council
meeting in January.

Waste Management — One of the World’s Most Ethical
Companies
The Ethisphere Institute, an independent center of research promoting best practices in corporate
ethics and governance, has named Waste Management to its annual listing of World’s Most Ethical
Companies. This is the ninth time Waste Management has been
honored with this award, which recognizes organizations that
continue to raise the bar on ethical leadership and corporate
behavior. It is also just one of two companies named in the
Environmental Services category. To be named as a World’s Most
Ethical Company, scores are generated in five key categories: ethics
and compliance program, leadership and innovation, governance,
corporate citizenship, and culture of ethics.
Equipment
One of our goals at Waste Management is to know more about our
customers and how better to serve them than anyone else in the
industry. To help us meet this goal, we have engaged state-of-the-art
technology on our front lines, which means directly in our trucks and
within our local operations centers, to ensure we maintain the
highest level of accountability to the municipalities we serve.
A Safe, Efficient Waste Management Fleet
With more than 32,000 collection and support vehicles on the road
throughout North America, our trucks are a familiar sight. As they
make their rounds, our trucks use fuel and generate greenhouse
gases and other emissions and we are committed to reducing the
environmental impacts of these vehicles.
Waste Management’s fleet vehicles are painted a uniform color and
are easily identifiable with the company’s branding. Vehicles are
marked with unique unit identification numbers on each side and the rear of each vehicle. Waste
City of Yorkville
Solid Waste Collection Services November 3, 2016

Management maintains detailed records of each collection vehicle. All vehicles are meticulously
maintained to ensure a clean and orderly appearance, as well as good working condition.
Waste Management’s fleet vehicles feature the following onboard technology:
GPS real-time technology
Digital back-up camera, monitor, and alarm
2-way communication
DriveCam
Waste Management vehicles utilize DriveCam technologies —a palm-sized
video recorder--that helps us focus on identifying and addressing the
root causes of poor driving behavior. DriveCam continuously captures
what is happening 120 degrees in front of the vehicle, as well as inside
the cab. Once an event is triggered--by sudden movement, erratic
driving, speeding, or a collision--the unit records, saves, and sends 12
seconds of the incident (8 seconds before and 4 seconds after) to
DriveCam personnel for review and then on to Waste Management
managers for performance coaching. DriveCam continually improves driving behavior and reduces
collisions, which in turn allows Waste Management to focus on ensuring safety within our communities.
Waste Management installed the DriveCam video capture system on its vehicles nationwide in 2013 to
improve safety, reduce collisions, and reduce insurance claims.
Two third party studies have been completed on the influence of DriveCam. The University of Iowa
study concluded that there was a 70% reduction in risky driving behavior in vehicles using the
program. The Virginia Tech Transportation Institute study, funded by the Federal Motor Carriers Safety
Administration (FMCSA), studied two large national trucking companies and found that the number of
risky driving events was reduced by 52% in the first fleet and 37% in the second fleet.
Onboard Computing System
Waste Management’s trucks are now equipped with on-board computing technology that utilizes GPS
tracking. This allows the dispatcher to know w here any truck is at any time. The On-Board Computing
System (OCS) tracks each stop for every driver and has the ability to send confirmation e -mails to
inform customers their containers have been serviced. This allows the driver and all operations
personnel to provide customers with real-time data regarding their service. The OCS feeds into all of
Waste Management’s other operations systems to allow for accurate and continuous updating of service
records. Items that are tracked include time arriving at customer location, time arriving at landfill,
time returning to customer location, and time the driver leaves the customer locat ion after completing
the haul. The use of OCS has a much higher rate of success than the traditional paper route sheets.

Operations Plan
Waste Management has provided reliable quality service to the neighbors of Yorkville in the cities of
Plainfield and Sugar Grove for many years. Waste Management drivers know the area and the high level
of service these residents have come to expect. This knowledge is based on the successful relationship
Waste Management has developed with these municipalities. We are excited to be able to offer the
same reliable quality service to the residents of Yorkville. Waste Management will service the City of
Yorkville over five days as outlined on the map in Exhibit A of the RFP.
From our local hauling district, located at 115 Simonds Avenue, DeKalb, Waste Management will
provide collection and disposal of solid waste, recycling, and yard waste material.
Upon servicing each home, our drivers will ensure that containers are returned to their original
location in a manner that does not interfere with pedestrian or vehicular traffic. We will perform all
collections between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m., ensuring that we minimize any noise during
service.
Our drivers will ensure that we pick up and deposit in the truck any debris that is scattered or spilled
during service, including broken glass. The waste collected will be properly transported and disposed
of at the regional disposal facility outlined in the RFP specifications.
Solid waste and yard waste from the City of Yorkville will be taken to the Waste Management owned
DeKalb Landfill. Waste Management will take recycling material DeKalb Reload Center where they will
then be transported to Resource Management for processing.
Transition Plan
The smooth implementation of a City of Yorkville waste and recycling program is the first step toward
customer satisfaction. Detailed planning is required to ensure that residents experience a smooth
transition between service providers. For this reason, Waste Management will assemble an experienced
and dedicated implementation team, and draw from an extensive toolkit of communication resources
to effectively communicate the transition. Transition steps include:
Distribution Plan and Schedule of Carts
Driver/Crew Orientation of Local Area
Service Transition Notification
Customer Communications and Public Relations
Waste Management will develop and distribute a service brochure to the City of Yorkville residents at
the start of the contract. The brochure will include information on recycling guidelines. Waste
Management’s marketing department has numerous promotional pieces available that can be adapted
for the specific needs of the City of Yorkville (i.e. website material and links, social media, and
newsletters).
Service Machine
Service Machine® are quality service standards to which Waste Management personnel are held. These
standards are the highest in the industry, providing the basis for Waste Management to provide the City
of Yorkville residents with the highest quality and most consistent service possible .
Waste Management Service Machine® applies to the following crit ical service areas:
City of Yorkville
Solid Waste Collection Services November 3, 2016
28
Customer Set-Up
Standard rating is 98% or more of set-ups customer-impacting error free.
One person has the responsibility to make sure that no detail is overlooked, such as bin
placement, start up timing, and billing issues.
A set-up coordinator role, reporting to the Area Vice President, is established to ensure timely
and efficient set-ups.
The set-up coversheets used by Waste Management personnel were designed to reduce set -up
errors and rework.
Customer set-up is based on an emphasis on customer satisfaction. The city of Yorkville will be
contacted to ensure that set-up was completed properly and any issues are quickly identified
and resolved.
On Time Pick-Ups
The idea is simple: “Haul or Call.” But if for any reason we can’t pick up a customer as promised, we
let them know. There must be a follow-up call.
Haul or Call is a process used by drivers to inform dispatch and the customer that a container
could not be serviced as planned.
If this problem recurs any time within two months of the first report, Waste Management’s
system flags the problem to resolve.
If a driver cannot perform a pick-up because of a blocked bin or other problem outside of
Waste Management’s control, the customer will be informed promptly. This allows Waste
Management to proactively solve the pick -up problem, regardless of the cause.
What if a pick-up is missed? Waste Management Service Machine® has exact standards in place
for quickly resolving the missed pick-up either same day or the next day by noon.
Should another pick-up be missed within two months, the system again flags the problem for
management to address immediately.
Waste Management does not tolerate internal errors that lead to missed pick -ups or other
service disruptions to our customers.
Container Swaps
Our experienced drivers in the field often identify containers that need repair or swapping
before these problems are identified by our customers. Waste Management has built a
reporting process in which drivers can report possible swaps, which are e ntered into our
system.
95% or more of unserviceable containers are to be repaired or swapped within two business
days and serviceable containers within five business days.
This standard excludes non-typical containers such as compactors, single customer orders
greater than ten containers, special containers, and orders subject to contractual terms.

Service Metrics
Waste Management Service Machine® ensures that each Waste Management location is trained and
understands the following service metrics:

Set-up % of Set-up Errors
Commercial Missed Pick-up per 1,000 Customers Residential
Recovery % Recoveries within Standard – Commercial

Holidays/Inclement Weather
Waste Management typically observes the following national holidays:
New Year’s Day Labor Day
Memorial Day Thanksgiving Day
Independence Day Christmas Day
In the event that any of these holidays fall on a regular scheduled service day, all refuse, recycling and
yard waste collection services on that day and for the remainder of the collection week shall be
delayed one day after the recognized holiday.
If a driver cannot perform a pick-up on the regularly scheduled service day due to inclement weather
conditions, the pick-up will occur on the next business day. Any deviation from this will be
communicated to the Township.

Refuse Service
Modified Volume Program
Waste Management will provide weekly refuse service.
Each resident will receive a two wheeled cart for refuse. Residents will have the opportunity to
select a 96 gallon, 64 gallon or 35 gallon cart at the beginning of the contract for no fee. If no
selection is made the 96 gallon cart will be the default size. Subsequent requests will be subject to
an exchange fee. No sticker is required for the cart.
Additional refuse may be collected in bags or containers with handles that do not exceed 32 gallons
in size and weigh less than 50lbs. Each additional bag/container requires a sticker to be serviced.
Residents may rent an additional refuse cart for a monthly fee. A second cart will require a sticker
to be serviced.
Carts will remain the property of Waste Management.
Includes (1) one bulk item per week.
Amnesty Day
Waste Management will provide (2) two Amnesty Days annually (spring and fall).
The collection days will be mutually agreed upon dates on a regularly scheduled service day.
Recycle Service
Waste Management will provide unlimited weekly recycle service.
Each resident will receive a two wheeled cart for recycling. Residents will have the opportunity to
select a 96 gallon, 64 gallon or 35 gallon cart at the beginning of the contract for no fee. If no
selection is made the 64 gallon cart will be the default size. Subsequent requests will be subject to
an exchange fee.
Residents may rent an additional recycle cart for a monthly fee.
Carts will remain the property of Waste Management.
Much has changed since the introduction of recycling. The material we use in our daily lives has
evolved tremendously. We use less paper, more plastic and about the same amount of metal. The
packaging in which we buy food and other products is constantly changing, and it is often made of
many different materials whose recyclability varies. Recycling programs and acceptable materials vary
from area to area, and can even be different in neighboring cities. Single-stream recycling is a great
program that has enabled us to put all of our recyclables in one convenient cart, but the flip side to
that is that it invites material that isn’t recyclable. For example, #6 plastic or polystyrene is currently
not acceptable in curbside collection.
Single Stream Materials placed out for collection may not contain a percentage of Excluded Materials
greater than the Maximum Non-Recyclables Level of 10%. If a resident’s recycling is contaminated, the
driver will “tag” it with a sticker explaining the reason why the resident was not serviced. Once the
resident rectifies the situation, service will be provided on the next scheduled service date. In the
event Single Stream Materials do not meet specifications, the materials may be rejected and/or the
resident may be charged additional processing or disposal costs.

Flexible packaging and multi-
laminated materials Wet fiber
Excluded Materials Fiber containing, or that has been in contact with, food
debris
Any recyclable materials, or pieces of
recyclable materials, less than 2” in
size in any dimension
Materials: (a) that contain chemical or other properties
deleterious, or capable of causing material damage, to
any part of Company's property, its personnel or the
public; and/or (b) that may materially impair the strength
or the durability of the Company's structures or
equipment.
Because Waste Management understands the critical importance of educating the community, we are
prepared to provide support in the area of education and awareness. As part of our commitment to the
City of Yorkville, Waste Management is offering our Recycle Often. Recycle Right.SM recycling education
program.
Recycle Often. Recycle Right.SM
The recycling industry is changing.
Stagnating recycling rates, end-market depression, packaging changes and material processing
inefficiencies are all causing confusion over what is acceptable in curbside bins, high contamination
levels and increasing costs. These factors threaten the sustainability of recycling programs everywhere.
The solution: Recycle Often. Recycle Right.SM This simple, fully integrated education partnership
provides all the materials, tools and messages to help the city’s recycling program succeed in this ever-
changing waste stream.
The longevity of any city’s recycling program is dependent on public education and enforcement
strategies. Simply put, recycling “right” can be confusing. With nearly 26 percent of people recycling
items despite being unsure if they are recyclable, it’s no surprise 16 percent of loads entering the
recycling plant are contaminated. As more communities move to single -stream recycling and more
complex plastics make their way onto store shelves, residents’ confusion of what goes in and what
stays out of the cart will be a growing challenge for your community.
City of Yorkville
Solid Waste Collection Services November 3, 2016

Recycle Often. Recycle Right.SM is the solution. Recognizing that residents want to do the right thing
and recycle correctly, but are often confused, Waste Management created Recycle Often. Recycle
Right.SM This program is a national effort for municipal partners to educate their residents about
recycling and the basic rules of sustainable recycling.
Recycle Often. Recycle Right. SM is a research-based education and outreach program that’s flexible,
adaptable and customizable. Whether your community is just getting started or you’re in a mature
market, Recycle Often. Recycle Right.SM provides municipal partners with all the right education tools
— messaging, artwork, newsletters, welcome packets, bill inserts, and promotional ideas. By using
targeted and standardized messaging focused on three simple recycling behaviors that will have a big
impact, your community can maximize the value of the education and outreach investment, while
leveraging a nationally promoted campaign.
Recycle Often. Recycle Right.SM is different from traditional recycling education efforts . The campaign
is based on social marketing strategies that organizations in the energy, health and water industries are
using successfully to change behavior. Working together to understand your city, its neighborhoods, its
residents, their habits, and how they like to communicate is the foundation. This local knowledge is
supplemented with nationally conducted surveys, focus groups, tested, targeted messages and
extensive demographic research. And by simplifying and repeating recycling messaging, Recycle Often.
Recycle Right.SM allows residents to focus on making the recycling decisions that will make the most
difference.

Tagging System
The Recycle Often. Recycle Right.SM education component reaches out to residents at the curb. Waste
Management uses the following Recycle Often. Recycle Right.SM tagging system to provide consistent
messaging to residents. The red tag is used on any recycle container that does not get collected due to
contamination. The tag provides a brief explanation as to why the recycle material was not collected
and what corrective action the resident needs to take to ensure it is collected. The tag also highlights
the three simple recycling rules of Recycle Often. Recycle Right.SM as outlined above. The green tag is
used to reinforce changed behavior for residents who had previously received a red tag.
Yard Waste Service
Waste Management will provide unlimited weekly yard waste service to residents from April 1
through November 30.
Yard waste is collected in Kraft paper bags not exceeding 30 gallons in size and 50lbs in weight or
secured bundles not exceeding 4 feet in length and 50lbs in weight.
Waste Management will collect Christmas trees the first two weeks of January for no additional
fee. Christmas trees must be free of all decorations and not in bags.
Curbside Composting Program
Waste Management will offer an optional annual subscription organics service. Residents have the
option to participate for an additional monthly fee.
Organics will be collected weekly with yard waste from April 1 through November 30.
Organics will be collected every other week from December through March on the regular
scheduled service day.
Waste Management will provide a cart for the collection of organics. During the yard waste season
organics and yard waste are comingled in the cart.
Carts will remain the property of Waste Management.
Waste Management reserves the right to cancel the program if the composting facility will no
longer accept the material or for high contamination.

Electronic Waste Management
Waste Management will offer curbside electronics pickup through its “At Your Door” program. The “At
Your Door” program is a household hazardous waste collection program that includes electronics.
Waste Management makes it easy for residents to dispose of these items, by collecting the materials at
their door– safely, easily and responsibly. The monthly per home cost for this program is included in
the monthly rate.
At Your Door Special Collection
At Your Door Special Collection provides residents
with a service to remove the difficult, sometimes
hazardous and hard-to-recycle items that almost
every household accumulates. As North America’s
leading environmental solutions company, Waste
Management makes it easy for residents to dispose of
these items, by collecting the materials at their door–
safely, easily and responsibly.
At Your Door Special Collection collects home
generated special materials directly from residences
within your community. Experience is key– the
program has served hundreds of thousands of homes
since 1995 and currently manages programs for dozens of municipalities in many states.
This program is not your usual household generated special material program, because this program is
focused on recycling most of the materials collected. Communities across the country can take
advantage of Waste Management’s research and capability to collect and recycle an overlooked
category of recyclables collected directly from the home.
Paper, cans, bottles, cardboard and plastics are already part of most recycling programs. What about
the other materials used in homes such as electronics, cleaning supplies and paint? How does a
resident in your community dispose of these items?
By increasing collection of these items, the potential for water pollution and environmental hazards
are further reduced. At Your Door focuses on collection and recycling of these additional materials, to
prevent disposal in regular trash bins. Once collected, the program recycles most special materials
including electronics, paints, batteries, lamps and motor oil! Most of these items are diverted from
local landfills.
City of Yorkville
Solid Waste Collection Services November 3, 2016

Combine the quantities of special materials collected by At Your Door that are sent to facilities for the
purpose of recycling with your traditional recyclables, such as, paper, aluminum cans, plastics, etc.
and your community’s recycling rates will increase.
Educating the Community
Our knowledgeable staff will work with each municipality to help develop a cost effi cient and effective
approach to public education support that will both build and sustain involvement throughout the
duration of the program.
At Your Door offers a simple solution to any community’s recycling dilemma. A home based program is
offered so residents simply contact At Your Door to schedule a collection. Then, they place their
special materials into the collection bag and place it near their front door step or garage. The resident
does not need to be home to participate, as they simply place the bag in a specific location on their
collection date.

Value Added Services
Disaster Services
Whether it is a major environmental disaster or a tornado that devastates a small town, Waste
Management has the resources, equipment, and personnel to help clean up. We were there to help our
friends and neighbors in Washington, IL in 2013 when this community was devastated by an EF-4
tornado. Within 90 seconds, 650 homes were destroyed and nearly 1,000 were severely damaged.
Waste Management assisted the
City in damage assessment and
provided at the City’s request
24-hour operation of our East
Peoria Transfer Station as a
destination for all collected
debris in the initial phase of the
cleanup. As the City realized
that they faced a 60,000 cubic
yard debris field, Waste
Management assumed total
responsibility for consolidation of
the debris at the curb line,
loading the consolidated debris
into WM supplied transfer
trailers, transportation to the
Peoria City/County Landfill #2, a
WM facility, and disposal of all of
the landfilled debris. Waste
Management also supplied
operators and grapples for the
effort, as well as end loaders and semi dump trailers and the transfer trailers and drivers. Waste
Management’s portion of the debris removal was accomplished in less than four weeks.
In all, Waste Management received more than 25,000 tons of tornado debris, wit h more than 16,000
tons from Waste Management staged and directed collection and cleanup activities. We pledge the
same level of commitment to the City of Yorkville.
Waste Watch
As a part of our service offering, we would like to offer our Waste
Watch program the City of Yorkville at no charge. Our trucks are on
your streets every day. Our drivers are familiar with their routes, so
they’re often the first to notice when something is amiss. As your
community partner, we will assist the police and fire departments by
acting as extra eyes and ears on the streets.
Through our Waste Watch program, we provide training to our drivers in what to look for and how to
report suspicious or criminal activity to the police department.
Since its debut, Waste Watch has received national acclaim for its support of law enforcement,
emergency services, Highway Watch, Neighborhood Watch and the Amber Alert system. It has also
earned recognition from municipalities and organizations including the National Sheriff’s Association.

premises of the Contractor, that this contract shall be in default if the Contractor does not
take action to re-establish the schedule within twenty-four (24) hours of said notice. If at
the end of the twenty-four (24) hour period, the Contractor has not made the necessary
corrections, the City shall take such steps as are necessary, to provide services according
to the collection schedule submitted by the Contractor. The Contractor will be liable for
any costs of such steps from the date of the notice of default. If deemed necessary by the
City’s Designated Representative, the City shall have the right to take over all equipment
and facilities of the Contractor for a period of up to one-hundred-twenty (120) days from
the date of notice of default.
78. STRIKES/FORCE MAJEURE
78.1 The Contractor shall be required to file proof with the City Administrator, or their
designee that it has a "no strike" provision for the duration of all collective bargaining
agreements with its workers. Upon execution of any new agreement, the Contractor shall
forward to the City Administrator within thirty (30) days thereafter, proof that said
agreement also contains a "no strike" clause.
78.2 In the event that the Contractor shall fail to collect, remove and properly dispose of the
waste in accordance with the terms of this contract, for a period of five (5) business days
or more, the City, may, at its option, cause such waste to be collected and disposed of by
any reasonable means available to the City, and the cost thereof may be charged against
the Contractor and the performance bond furnished by the Contractor. The foregoing
option shall not be available to the City, if the Contractor's failure so to collect and
remove waste for the period was due to unusual weather conditions, or some other "act of
God," which rendered such collection and removal impossible to perform. The
Contractor shall not be liable for the failure to perform its duties if such failure was
caused by a catastrophe, riot, war, government order or regulation, fire, accident or any
similar contingency beyond the reasonable control of the Contractor. "Act of God" does
not include any strike, sympathy strike, slowdown, sit-down, stoppage of work, refusal to
perform overtime, mass absenteeism, refusal to cross a picket line or any other similar
concerted action or intentional interruption or disruption of the operations of the
Contractor by Contractor's own employees (the foregoing collectively referred to as
"labor dispute"), provided, however, that in the event that the City exercises its option
under this Article to collect and dispose of waste by other reasonable means because of
the Contractor's failure to perform due to a labor dispute, the total amount charged
against the Contractor by the City can only be an amount which is in excess of the total
amount that the City would have otherwise paid to the Contractor for collection over the
duration of the labor dispute. The CONTRACTOR shall promptly notify the City in
writing of any event covered by this Section and the date, nature and cause thereof. Such
notice shall indicate the anticipated extent of such delay and the obligations under this
Agreement to be affected thereby.

Street Sign Sale Close-Out
Public Works Committee – December 20, 2016
None – Informational item.
Results of the street sign sale for the original inventory.
Nicole Kathman Administration
Name Department
Summary
Results of the street sign sale for the original inventory and plan to continue the sale as signs are
taken down.
Background
After federal regulations for street name signs were changed in regards to retroreflectivity
requirements as well as letter size and capitalization, the City was left with approximately 700
signs that were no longer compliant with standards. In addition, the City still had in storage
around 140 older black and white signs. In order to clear out space to put the new signs, we
decided to sell the signs at $10 each.
In total out of approximately 850 signs, we sold 508 signs making a total of $5,080. The revenue
went into the line-item “Miscellaneous Public Works Income” and will be used to purchase
machinery and equipment for the Public Works Department.
In order to clear out space to put the new signs, we decided to scrap the remaining inventory of
street name signs for metal. This has not been done yet, but when completed, I will update the
committee on how many signs were scrapped and how much we earned for them.
Overall, there was a high interest in the street name sign sale. Many residents asked about
particular signs that were not on the inventory and inquired if they would ever become available.
Since the Public Works Department has to regularly replace streets signs for multiple reasons
including damage or worn out retroreflectivity properties, we have decided to continue the sale
as signs are taken down. Therefore, at this time, the street name sign sale webpage is still on the
website, but there is no current inventory listed. We anticipate that we will start it up again next
spring or summer with the help of our seasonal staff.
Recommendation
This is an informational item.

See attached memo as discussed at the December 13th City Council meeting.
Bart Olson Administration
Name Department
Summary
Discussion of the agreement for professional services for the proposed Quiet Zone at the BNSF and IR
rail lines.
Background
The City discussed the process of Quiet Zone creation in June, 2015. At that time Council did not move
ahead with the initial studies. Recently, after more numerous resident complaints and increased traffic
along the IR rail line staff has asked EEI to propose an Agreement for a Quiet Zone study along both rail
lines within the City. EEI has successfully completed the establishment of Quiet Zones in Aurora/Sugar
Grove Township, Sugar Grove and Plano. This study would provide a preliminary investigation and a
current risk index for the proposed Quiet Zones, as well as initial coordination with the Federal Railroad
Administration (FRA) and the Illinois Commerce Commission (ICC) and both rail lines. This initial
study will provide staff and Council more information on if, when and how the City will move forward
with a proposed Quiet Zone.
Recommendation
Staff recommends moving forward with an Agreement for Professional Services with EEI for a Quiet
Zone Study on both the BNSF and IR rail lines in the United City of Yorkville at the City Council
meeting in January, 2017.

1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The purpose of this feasibility study is to identify projects that will significantly reduce owning and operating costs for
the City of Yorkville. This energy conservation program is the funding vehicle that allows you to use guaranteed savings
from the City’s maintenance and operations budget (utilities) as capital to fund needed upgrades and modernizations
to the infrastructure, and is financed over a specified period of time.
This program is designed to be budget neutral or better, and to create a positive cash flow that improves the financial
performance for the City. Leopardo can guarantee that cost avoidance (utility and operations expenses) will
meet or exceed annual payments to cover all project costs over an agreed debt service period, or Leopardo
pays the difference.
A team of experts from Leopardo worked with City personnel to conduct a utility and/or field audit at the following
locations:
1. City Hall & Police Department
2. Beecher Community Center
3. Parks & Recreation
4. Parks Maintenance
5. Public Works
6. Library
In addition to auditing the City owned buildings, Leopardo conducted a thorough analysis on the following city-wide
operations:
1. City Owned Street Lights
2. City Owned Vehicles
This report has been generated through analysis of your existing energy data, as well as information collected during
the initial facility surveys. Based on these preliminary findings, your decision to proceed initiates a detailed
engineering study where specific energy conservation measures and detailed pricing will be identified. Our unique
interactive consultation provides you with the opportunity to select the best combination of improvements for your
infrastructure. Upon execution of contracts, we implement the recommended measures and begin the process of
ensuring their results.
The following report includes energy conservation measures and savings information designed to assist the City in
meeting its long-range plans for reducing energy use and costs and to improve the facilities through increased
environmental stewardship. We appreciate the opportunity to collaborate with the City and look forward to
implementing a comprehensive project to maximize efficiency and savings.
Leopardo will continue to help the city of Yorkville:
Determine the infrastructure, buildings and ECMs for the project
Plan current and future capital expense reports
Develop the request for proposals documents

1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Our goal in presenting this report is to communicate the opportunity to optimize the cost/benefit of your
energy/maintenance expense dollars using the performance contract procurement method that will yield material benefit
to the City. This can include the following:
Sustained energy cost reduction
Future energy and operating cost retention
Leverage current energy and operating budget to address infrastructure needs
Enhance the environment and comfort for City staff and citizens
Enable the City to redirect capital budgets to higher value-added projects that will help grow the City

The following graph represents the next five years of projected costs without a performance contract.
By entering into an Energy Savings Performance Contract (ESPC) we anticipate that The City of Yorkville would spend
$760,620 over that same five year period. The City of Yorkville would reduce annual utility, operating, and capital
expenses in the amount of $377,005 by entering into an ESPC. An ESPC would allow the City of Yorkville to upgrade
aging & unreliable building asset infrastructure, as well as protect themselves from a volatile rising utility market by
utilizing the savings this program is GUARANTEED to deliver.

RECOMMENDED SCOPE DESCRIPTIONS
Below provides a general description of the technology being proposed for The City of Yorkville.
STREET LIGHTING
Existing Conditions
According to the utility bills, there are approximately 1,269 street lights owned and maintained by the city. There
are several other street lights within the city limits that are owned and maintained by ComEd.
st if the street lighting is either high-pressure o r low-pressure sodium lamps (HPS and LPS). There are a few
older mercury vapor (MV) lamps in operation as well.
The City spends $83,069 annually in utility costs. Most if these costs are “lamp charges,” which pay for the
maintenance and infrastructure for the lighting systems. Additionally, the City spends approximately $39,000 in
maintenance and materials to repair and replace the lamps.

RECOMMENDATIONS
Energy Conservation Recommendations
With street lighting being one of the largest expenses for the City’s budget, Leopardo recommends a comprehensive
retrofit to LED. Doing so will significant decrease the utility expenses for the City. Additionally, the City’s
maintenance expenses to lighting replacement will significantly decrease since LED lamps last 4-5 times longer

Beecher Center – HVAC Equipment Replacement
One of the most critical needs the City needs to address is the older HVAC equipment in the Beecher Center. The
two air handling units that serve the facility date back to the building’s 1980s construction. During the audit, one
of the units was disabled for repair. With the units running well beyond their useful lives, they are chronically
broken down and in need of repair. Additionally, the R-22 refrigerant has become obsolete and is no longer in
production. This means any repairs done to the existing systems are significantly more expensive.
Leopardo proposes the two AHUs be replaced with new, high-efficiency systems. This includes removal and
demolition of all air handling equipment. The new systems shall significantly reduce electrical costs with new fan
motor equipment, and high efficiency cooling technology. Natural gas costs would also be decreased with new gas
furnace heat exchangers. Most importantly, the new equipment will significantly reduce the ongoing maintenance
costs, especially with using code-compliant refrigerant. Capital cost avoidance will be observed as well, as the
existing systems are prone to failure given their age and significant demand.
This proposed scope item is congruent to what is proposed in the Capital Project section in the City’s Fiscal Year
2017 Budget adopted may 1st, 2016:

FLEET
The City spent $144,529 in vehicle maintenance and repair costs from May 2015 - April 2016 and $113,541 in
vehicle fuel costs from May 2015- April 2016.
There are significant opportunities in reducing the maintenance and operational costs in the City’s fleet. This would
include police vehicles, maintenance vehicles, and any other service vehicles used by the City. The following
sections describe recommendations to be implemented to the existing fleet including an Ongoing Vehicle
Maintenance Program, a Fleet Leasing Program and a Fleet Fuel Upgrade.

Ongoing Vehicle Maintenance Management
Leopardo recommends implementing an Ongoing Vehicle Maintenance Program in which vehicles would be regularly
inspected by a third-party professional mechanic.
Fleet-scale vehicle maintenance can be difficult to manage without the proper time commitment and knowledge. Often
times, some maintenance costs could be avoided or reduced if vehicle issues were identified sooner. Below is a typical
city’s breakdown of annual vehicle maintenance costs. It is clear to see that tire and oil costs make up the majority of
the expenses. However, the remaining 42% of expenses has the potential to be reduced through ongoing
maintenance.
In implementing an Ongoing Vehicle Maintenance Program, a third party would perform ongoing maintenance on all
fleet vehicles. The third party would be looking to find and repair any small issues before they turn into expensive
repairs, and in turn, reduce maintenance costs.

Confidential Information
There are a number of additional benefits that come with an Ongoing Vehicle Maintenance Program, including:
• Toll-free driver call center
• ASE Certified technicians with over 15 years average experience
• Repair cost avoidance
• Post-warranty recovery
• Monitored maintenance alerts
• Preventative Maintenance coupon book
• National Account Card
• Customized maintenance profile
• Pre-set call center spend limit
• Consolidated billing by cost center
• Vehicle rentals
• 24-hour emergency road service
• Glass repair/replacement
Taking advantage of a Vehicle Maintenance Program with experienced technical advisors would also allow for assistance
in repair negotiations such as:
• Identifying repetitive repairs
• Conducting parts/labor negotiation
• Identifying warranty and post-warranty opportunities
• Cost avoidance – denying accelerated maintenance
• Identifying new vehicle on order
• Providing alternate repair methods

Fleet Leasing Program
Leopardo proposes that the existing City of Yorkville Vehicle Replacement Plan be upgraded to a fleet leasing program.
The existing Vehicle Replacement Plan outlines which year vehicles will be replaced from 2016 to 2059. See Appendix
1 “Vehicle Replacement Chargeback Schedule” at the end of this report for the current Vehicle Replacement Plan.
Open Ended Fleet Leasing
Features of the open-ended leasing product are characterized by:
• Improved cash flow
• No mileage restrictions or wear and tear charges
• Flexible financing options
• Customized terms for use and type of vehicle
• Retention of ownership rights
Where normally a vehicle would be purchased outright from the capital budget and kept in fleet until a specified
time when it was sold, the open-ended lease allows for funding of only the portion of the vehicle used. This approach
allows municipalities to pay the minimum value for the use of the vehicle on a monthly basis, improving cash flow.
The mechanics of this lease involves financing the difference between the vehicle’s purchase price and a
conservative reduced book value (RBV), which is based on the anticipated market value considering the vehicles
age and application. This product can also be used by the City of Yorkville as a finance lease buy-back. The City of
Yorkville’s fleet would be purchased for fair market value and leased back to the City to a reduced book value. This
will allow the City to receive an influx of cash from the equity buildup of the existing fleet.
Options at completion of lease term:
• The City of Yorkville can renew its vehicles with new models and apply any gains to the replacement
vehicle.
• The City of Yorkville can extend the term of the lease.
• The City of Yorkville can obtain the vehicle at the reduced book value.
Mike Albert Fleet Solutions can sell the aged vehicles in a process that accommodates the City of Yorkville in a
competitive process. Gains are defined as the difference between the resale proceeds from our remarketing efforts
and the open market sale and the reduced book value. There are no mileage charges or excessive wear and tear
charges. At any time during the lease period, the vehicle can be resourced back into the City-owned fleet. As a
result, resourcing is just as simple as outsourcing. The savings calculations for the alternative fuel upgrade
(propane) and open-end lease program are detailed on the following pages.
Below on the following page, potential savings have been identified for implementing both an Ongoing Vehicle
Maintenance Program and an Open End Leasing Program.

Fleet Fuel Upgrade
Leopardo proposes that the Police Department Vehicles be upgraded to use propane as an alternative fuel. Propane can
be purchased at a significantly lower cost than gasoline. As a result, the City has a significant cost savings opportunity
to upgrade their high usage vehicles to run on propane. See Appendix 2 “Police Department Vehicles for Bi-Fuel Upgrade”
at the end of this report for the current Vehicle Replacement Plan.
There are two types of propane vehicles: dedicated and bi-fuel. Dedicated propane vehicles are designed to run only on
propane, while bi-fuel propane vehicles have two separate fueling systems that enable the vehicle to use either propane
or gasoline. Leopardo recommends the bi-fuel technology as it provides the flexibility and convenience for refueling.
Since the vehicles will have the propane tank as well as the existing gasoline, the bi-fuel system significantly extends
the mileage range. A propane vehicle's power, acceleration, and cruising speed are the same compared to gasoline-
fueled vehicles.
The Alternative Fuel Upgrade is the most advanced alternative fuel upgrade system. Using exclusive plug-and drive
technology, the propane system is completely non-invasive to the existing gasoline engine. This uses advanced
technology to make the engine run on propane, natural gas or methane. This provides the ability to run on a variety of
fuel types. Additionally, the vehicles will retain their ability to run on gasoline. Should a vehicle ever run out of propane
while running, the system will automatically and seamlessly switch to gasoline. The system is installed by a specially
trained ASE certified mechanic, and the same performance can be expected from using propane as from gasoline. The
alternative fuel upgrade is compatible with any vehicle. All of the equipment remains on the vehicle. The system is
designed to operate along with the existing vehicle’s existing components. By implementing this upgrade, the City will
have significant cost savings in their fleet fuel purchasing.
Below, potential savings have been identified for upgrading the twenty (20) Police Department Vehicles to a bi-
fuel system.

WATER METER INFRASTRUCTURE
The water meter infrastructure within the City of Yorkville has undergone an initial assessment to evaluate the existing
potential of a meter replacement effort for the purposes of revenue recovery. Water meter information was provided by
the City. The result of this evaluation indicates a potential loss of revenue through meter inaccuracy. Through
implementation of a water meter change out, the City of Yorkville may regain an estimated 40,000,000 – 50,000,000
gallons or $288,000 – $360,000 of billable water annually.
The background data used in the development of this study is based on information provided by the City staff. Below is a
table that breaks down the number of water meters currently installed by size:
Number of Meters by Size
3/4" 1" 1.5" 2" 3" 4" 6" 8"
5587 954 55 114 19 13 3 1
Total 6746
In order to accurately determine the revenue recovery of water replacement, Leopardo recommends a water meter survey
to be completed. This would include sample testing of the existing meters, and taking actual flow measurements. Once
meter accuracies are determined, an extensive analysis is performed to determine the potential revenue recovery. The City
uses a tiered utility structure that is based on consumption. The analysis shall also analyze three years of historical
consumption data to determine an accurate yearly consumption average for all water meter sizes. The three years of data
allows for minimization of weather related events that may affect seasonal consumption. This data is checked for
inconsistencies and will serve as the baseline consumption for a 12-month period. The data includes:
• account numbers
• service addresses
• mailing addresses
• Customer names
• meter serial numbers
• sizes
• consumption history
• installation dates
This data set serves as not only the consumption baseline but the foundation of the revenue analysis.
United City of Yorkville │ Comprehensive Infrastructure Analysis 40
Confidential Information
WATER METER INFRASTRUCTURE CONTINUED
Once all of the test results are input into the revenue template, the results are then extrapolated across each category
breakdown. First, results are applied to the historical consumption records. From that point the base usage is recalculated
and removed from billable consumption. After removing the base usage charge, the applied accuracy of the new meters
will result in the “Recovered Revenue” due to new meter accuracy. When the calculations are complete we are left with
the recovered consumption that will be applied to future revenue through new, more accurate meters. The recovered
consumption must also be compared against the current delta of production and consumption billings. It will be
reasonable to expect that portion of unbilled water can be recovered through a new meter change-out program.
In addition to the water meter infrastructure study, Leopardo shall also complete a through survey of the City’s pump
stations. Pump housing and motors shall be examined, as well as evaluate and propose new monitoring controls. With the
City’s interest in a Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system, Leopardo shall determine the optimal
system to best fit the City’s water infrastructure architecture.

has paid more than sixty days prior to the date on which the Funding Conditions are satisfied; and (7) such other
documents and information previously identified by Lessor or otherwise reasonably requested by Lessor.
5.3 Lessee shall, at its sole expense, arrange for the transportation, delivery and installation of
all Equipment to the location specified in the Schedule ("Location") by Equipment suppliers ("Suppliers") selected
by Lessee. Lessee shall accept Equipment for purposes of the related Lease as soon as it has been delivered and is
operational. Lessee shall evidence its acceptance o f any Equipment by signing and deliv ering to Lessor a
Certificate of Acceptance in the form and manner required by the applicable Escrow Agreement.
5.4 If a Non-Appropriation Event or an Event of Default occurs prior to Lessee's acceptance of all
the Equipment under the related Schedule, the amount then on deposit in the Escrow Fund shall be applied to
prepay the unpaid principal component of the Rent Payments in whole on the first business day of the month
next succeeding the occurrence of either such Event plus accrued interest to the prepayment date; provided,
however, that the amount to be prepaid by Lessee pursuant to this Section 5.4 shall first be paid from moneys in
the related Escrow Fund and then from Legally Available Funds and other moneys available for such purpose as a result
of the exercise by Lessor of its rights and remedies under the related Schedule. Any funds on deposit in the Escrow
Fund on the prepayment date described in this Section 5.4 in excess of the unpaid principal component of the
Rent Payments to be prepaid plus accrued interest thereon to the prepayment date shall be paid promptly to Lessee.
5.5 To the extent that Lessee has not accepted items of Equipment before the eighteen-month
anniversary of the Commencement Date identified on the related Schedule, the amount then on deposit in the
related Escrow Fund shall be applied to prepay the unpaid principal component of the Rent Payments in part, in
inverse order of Rent Payments, on the first business day of the next month plus accrued interest to the prepayment
date; provided, however, that the amount to be prepaid by Lessee pursuant to this Section 5.5 shall first be paid from
moneys in the related Escrow Fund and then from Legally Available Funds. Notwithstanding any such partial
prepayment, the related Schedule shall remain in full force and effect with respect to the portion of the
Equipment accepted by Lessee during such eighteen-month period, and the portion of the principal component of
Rent Payments remaining unpaid after such prepayment plus accrued interest thereon shall remain payable in
accordance with the terms of the related Schedule. Upon Lessor's request, Lessee shall execute an amendment to
the related Payment Schedule that reflects the change to the Rent Payments as a result of such partial prepayment.
6. TERMINATION UPON NON-APPROPRIATION EVENT.
6.1 For each Lease, Lessee represents and warrants that (a) it has appropriated and budgeted
Legally Available Funds to make all Rent Payments required pursuant to such Lease for the remainder of the fiscal
year in which the Lease Term commences; (b) it currently intends to make Rent Payments for the full Lease
Term as scheduled on the applicable Payment Schedule so long as funds are appropriated for each succeeding fiscal
year by its governing body; and (c) during the 10 fiscal years prior to the date of the applicable Lease, its
governing body has not failed (for whatever reason) to appropriate amounts sufficient to pay its obligations
that are subject to annual appropriation. Lessee reasonably believes that moneys in an amount sufficient to
make all Rent Payments can and will lawfully be appropriated and made available therefor.
6.2 If Lessee's governing body fails to appropriate sufficient funds in any fiscal year for Rent Payments
and other amounts to be paid under a Lease in the next succeeding fiscal year, then a "Non-Appropriation Event"
shall have occurred. If a Non-Appropriation Event occurs, then: (a) Lessee shall give Lessor written notice at least
30 days prior to the end of the then current fiscal year of such Non-Appropriation Event and provide written
evidence of such failure by Lessee's governing body; (b) on the Return Date, Lessee shall return to Lessor all, but
United City of Yorkville │ Comprehensive Infrastructure Analysis 46
Confidential Information
not less than all, of the Equipment covered by the affected Lease, at Lessee's sole expense, in accordance with Section
21 hereof; and (c) the affected Lease shall terminate on the Return Date without penalty or expense to Lessee,
provided, that Lessee shall pay all Rent Payments and other amounts payable under the affected Lease for which
funds shall have been appropriated, and provided further, that Lessee shall pay month-to-month rent at the rate
set forth in the affected Lease for each month or part thereof that Lessee fails to return the Equipment under this
Section 6.2. "Return Date" means the last day of the fiscal year for which appropriations were made for the Rent
Payments due under a Lease.
7. NO WARRANTY BY LESSOR.
LESSEE ACQUIRES AND LEASES THE EQUIPMENT UNDER EACH LEASE "AS IS." LESSEE
ACKNOWLEDGES THAT LESSOR DID NOT MANUFACTURE THE EQUIPMENT UNDER ANY LEASE. LESSOR DOES NOT
REPRESENT THE MANUFACTURER, SUPPLIER, OWNER OR DEAL ER, AND LESSEE SELECTED THE EQUIPMENT
BASED UPON LESSEE'S OWN JUDGMENT. LESSOR MAKES NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR OTHERWISE OR AS TO THE
EQUIPMENT'S VALUE, DESIGN, CONDITION, USE, CAPACITY OR DURABILITY. LESSEE AGREES THAT REGARDLESS OF
CAUSE, LESSOR IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR, AND LESSEE WILL NOT MAKE ANY CLAIM AGAINST LESSOR FOR, ANY
DAMAGES, WHETHER CONSEQUENTIAL, DIRECT, SPECIAL OR INDIRECT INCURRED BY LESSEE IN CONNECTION
WITH THE EQUIPMENT UNDER ANY LEASE. NEITHER THE MAN UFACTURER, SUPPLIER OR DEALER NOR ANY
SALESPERSON, EMPLOYEE OR AGENT OF THE MANUFACTURER, SUPPLIER OR DEALER IS LESSOR'S AGENT OR HAS
ANY AUTHORITY TO SPEAK FOR LESSOR OR TO BIND LESSOR IN ANY WAY. For and during the Lease Term under
each Lease, Lessor assigns to Lessee any manufacturer's or Supplier's product warranties, express or implied,
applicable to any Equipment and Lessor authorizes Lessee to obtain the customary services furnished in
connection with such warranties at Lessee's sole expense. Lessee agrees that (a) all Equipment will have been
purchased by Lessor in accordance with Lessee's specifications from Suppliers selected by Lessee, (b) Lessor is
not a manufacturer or dealer of any Equipment and has no liability for the delivery or installation of any Equipment,
(c) Lessor assumes no obligation with respect to any manufacturer's or Supplier's product warranties or guaranties,
(d) no manufacturer or Supplier or any representative of said parties is an agent of Lessor and (e) any warranty,
representation, guaranty or agreement made by any manufacturer or Supplier or any representative of said parties
shall not be binding upon Lessor.
8. TITLE; SECURITY INTEREST.
8.1 Upon Lessee's acceptance of any Equipment under a L ease and in accordance with the
related Escrow Agreement, title to such Equipment shall vest in Lessee, subject to Lessor's security interest therein
and all of Lessor's other rights under such Lease including, without limitation, Sections 6, 20 and 21 hereof.
8.2 As collateral security for Lessee's obligations to pay all Rent Payments and all other amounts due
and payable under each Lease and to perform and observe all covenants, agreements and conditions (direct or
indirect, absolute or contingent, due or to become due or existing or hereafter arising) of Lessee under such
Lease, Lessee hereby grants to Lessor a first priority, exclusive security interest in any and all of the Equipment
(now existing or hereafter acquired) under each Lease, moneys and investments held from time to time the Escrow
Fund under each Escrow Agreement and any and all proceeds of any of the foregoing. Lessee agrees to execute
and deliver to Lessor all necessary documents to evidence and perfect such security interest, including,
without limitation, Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) financing statements and any amendments thereto and
certificates of title or certificates of origin (or applications thereof) noting Lessor's interest thereon.

reasonable notice to Lessee, Lessor may enter the Location or elsewhere during normal business hours to inspect
the Equipment.
12. LIENS, SUBLEASES AND TAXES.
12.1 Lessee shall keep all Equipment free and clear of all Liens except those Liens created under
each Lease. Lessee shall not sublet or lend any Equipment or permit it to be used by anyo ne other than
Lessee or Lessee's employees.
12.2 Lessee shall pay when due all Taxes that may now or hereafter be imposed upon: any Equipment
or its ownership, leasing, rental, sale, purchase, pos session or use; any Lease or Escrow Agreement; any
Rent Payments or any other payments due under any Lease; or any Escrow Fund. If Lessee fails to pay such Taxes
when due, Lessor shall have the right, but not the obligation, to pay such Taxes. If Lessor pays any such Taxes,
then Lessee shall, upon demand, immediately reimburse Lessor therefor. "Taxes" means present and future
taxes, levies, duties, assessments or other governmental charges that are not based on the net income of Lessor,
whether they are assessed to or payable by Lessee or Lessor, including, without limitation (a) sales, use, excise,
licensing, registration, titling, gross receipts, stamp and personal property taxes and (b) interest, penalties o r
fines on any of the foregoing.
13. RISK OF LOSS.
13.1 Lessee bears the entire risk of loss, theft, damage or destruction of any Equipment in whole or in part
from any reason whatsoever ("Casualty Loss"). No Casualty Loss to any Equipment shall relieve Lessee from the
United City of Yorkville │ Comprehensive Infrastructure Analysis 48

obligation to make any Rent Payments or to perform any other obligation under any Lease. Proceeds of any
insurance recovery will be applied to Lessee's obligations under this Section 13.
13.2 If a Casualty Loss occurs to any Equipment, Lessee shall immediately notify Lessor of the same
and Lessee shall, unless otherwise directed by Lessor, immediately repair the same.
13.3 If Lessor determines that any item of Equipment has suffered a Casualty Loss beyond repair ("Lost
Equipment"), then Lessee shall either: (a) immediately replace the Lost Equipment with similar equipment in good
repair, condition and working order free and clear of any Liens (except Lessor's Liens) and deliver to Lessor a
purchase order, bill of sale or other evidence of sale to Lessee covering the replacement equipment, in which event
such replacement equipment shall automatically be Equipment under the applicable Lease, or (b) on the next
scheduled Rent Payment due date, pay Lessor (i) all amounts owed by Lessee under the applicable Lease, including
the Rent Payment due on such date, plus (ii) an amount equal to the applicable Termination Value set forth in the
Payment Schedule to the applicable Lease. If Lessee is making such payment with respect to less than all of the
Equipment under a Lease, then Lessor will provide Lessee with the pro rata amount of the Termination Value to be
paid by Lessee with respect to the Lost Equipment.
13.4 Lessee shall bear the risk of loss for, shall pay directly and shall defend against any and all claims,
liabilities, proceedings, actions, expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees), damages or losses arising under
or related to any Equipment, including, but not limited to, the possession, ownership, lease, use or operation
thereof. These obligations of Lessee shall survive any expiration or termination of any Lease. Lessee shall not bear
the risk of loss of, nor pay for, any claims, liabilities, proceedings, actions, expenses (including attorney's fees),
damages or losses which arise directly from events occurring after any Equipment has been returned by Lessee
to Lessor in accordance with the terms of the applicable Lease or which arise directly from the gross negligence
or willful misconduct of Lessor.
14. INSURANCE.
14.1(a) Lessee at its sole expense shall at all times keep all Equipment insured against all risks of loss or
damage from every cause whatsoever (including collision in the case of vehicles) for an amount not less than the
Termination Value of the Equipment under each Lease. Lessor shall be named as loss payee with respect to all
insurance covering damage to or loss of any Equipment, and the proceeds of any such insurance shall be payable
to Lessor as loss payee to be applied as provided in Section 13.3. (b) The Total Amount Financed as set forth on
the applicable Payment Schedule does not include the payment of any premium for any liability insurance coverage
for bodily injury and/or property damage caused to others and no such insurance will be purchased by
Lessor. (c) Lessee at its sole expense shall at all times carry public liability and property damage insurance in
amounts reasonably satisfactory to Lessor protecting Lessee and Lessor from liabilities for injuries to persons and
damage to property of others relating in any way to any Equipment. Lessor shall be named as additional insured
with respect to all such public liability and property damage insurance, and the proceeds of any such insurance
shall be payable first to Lessor as additional insured to the extent of its liability and then to Lessee.
14.2 All insurers shall be reasonably satisfactory to Lessor. Lessee shall promptly d eliver to Lessor
satisfactory evidence of required insurance coverage and all renewals and replacements thereof. Each insurance
policy will require that the insurer give Lessor at least 30 days prior written notice of any cancellation of such
policy and wi ll require that Lessor's interests remain insured regardless of any act, error, misrepresentation,
omission or neglect of Lessee. The insurance mainta ined by Lessee shall be primary without any right o f
contribution from insurance which may be maintained by Lessor.

14.3 If Lessee is self-insured under an actuarially sound self-insurance program that is acceptable
to Lessor with respect to equipment such as the Equipment under a Lease, Lessee shall maintain during the
Lease Term of such Lease such actuarially sound self-insurance program and shall provide evidence thereof in form
and substance satisfactory to Lessor.
15. PURCHASE OPTION.
Upon thirty (30) days' prior written notice by Lessee to Lessor, and so long as there is no Event of Default
then existing, Lessee shall have the option to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Equipment subject to a Lease
on any Rent Payment due date by paying to Lessor all Rent Payments then due (including accrued interest, if any)
plus the Termination Value set forth on the Payment Schedule to the applicable Lease for such date. Upon
satisfaction by Lessee of such purchase conditions, Lessor shall release its Lien on such Equipment and Lessee
shall retain its title to such Equipment "AS-IS, WHERE-IS," without representation or warranty by Lessor, express
or implied, except for a representation that such Equipment is free and clear of any Liens created by Lessor.
16. LESSEE'S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.
With respect to each Lease, the Equipment subject thereto and the related Escrow Agreement, Lessee
hereby represents and warrants to Lessor that:
(a) Lessee has full power, authority and legal right to execute and deliver the Lease and the
Escrow Agreement and to perform its obligations under the Lease and the Escrow Agreement, and all such
actions have been duly authorized by appropriate findings and actions of Lessee's governing body;
(b) the Lease and the Escrow Agreement have each been d uly authorized, executed and
delivered by Lessee and each constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Lessee, enforceable in
accordance with their respective terms;
(c) the Lease and the Escrow Agreement are each authori zed under, and the authorization,
execution and delivery of the Lease and the Escrow Agreement comply with, all applicable federal, state
and local laws and regulations (including, but not limited to, all open meeting, public bidding and property
acquisition laws) and all applicable judgments and court orders;
(d) the execution, delivery and performance by Lessee of its obligations under the Lease and
the Escrow Agreement will not result in a breach or violation of, nor constitute a default under, any
agreement, lease or other instrument to which Lessee is a party or by which Lessee's properties may
be bound or affected;
(e) there is no p ending, or to the best of Lessee's knowledge threat ened, litigation of any
nature that may have a material adverse effect on Lessee's ability to perform its obligations under the Lease
and the Escrow Agreement; and
(f) Lessee is a state, or a political subdivision thereof, within the meaning of Section 103 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code") and will do or cause to be done all things necessary to
preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence as such.

17. TAX COVENANTS.
Lessee hereby covenants and agrees that:
(a) The parties anticipate that Lessor can exclude the interest component of the Rent Payments
under each Lease from federal gross income. Lessee covenants and agrees that it will (i) complete and
timely file an information reporting return with the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") in accordance with
Section 149(e) of the Code; (ii) not permit the Equipment to be directly or indirectly used for a private
business use within the meaning of Section 141 of the Code including, without limitation, use by private
persons or entities pursuant to contractual arrangements which do not satisfy IRS guidelines for permitted
management contracts, as the same may be amended from time to time; (iii) invest and reinvest moneys
on deposit in the Escrow Fund related to each Lease from time to time in a manner that will not cause
such Lease to be classified as an "arbitrage bond" within the meaning of Section 148(a) of the Code; (iv)
rebate an amount equal to excess earnings in any Escrow Fund to the federal government if required by,
and in accordance with, Section 148(f) of the Code and make the determinations and maintain the records
required by the Code; and (v) comply with all provisions and regulations applicable to establishing and
maintaining the excludability of the interest component of the Rent Payments under each Lease from
federal gross income pursuant to Section 103 of the Code.
(b) If Lessor either (i) receives notice, in any form, from the IRS; or (ii) reasonably
determines, based on an opinion of independent tax counsel selected by Lessor and approved by Lessee,
which approval Lessee shall not unreasonably withho ld, that Lessor may not exclude the interest
component of any Rent Payment under a Lease from federal gross income because Lessee breached a
covenant contained in paragraph 17(a) herein, then Lessee shall pay to Lessor, within thirty (30) days
after Lessor notifies Lessee of such determination, the amount which, with respect to Rent Payments
previously paid and taking into account all penalties, fines, interest and additions to tax (including all
federal, state and local taxes imposed on the interest component of all Rent Payments under such Lease
due through the date of such event) that are imposed on Lessor as a result of the loss of the exclusion,
will restore to Lessor the same after-tax yield on the transaction evidenced by this Lease (assuming tax
at the highest marginal corporate tax rate) that it would have realized had the exclusion not been lost.
Additionally, Lessee agrees that upon the occurrence of such an event, it shall pay additional rent to Lessor
on each succeeding Rent Payment due date in such amount as will maintain such after-tax yield to Lessor.
Lessor's determination of the amount necessary to maintain its after-tax yiel d as provided in this
subsection (b) shall be conclusive (absent manifest error). Notwithstanding anything in a Lease to the
contrary, any payment that Lessee is required to make pursuant to this subsection (b) shall be made only
from Legally Available Funds.
18. ASSIGNMENT.
18.1 Lessee shall not sell, assign, transfer, pledge, hypothecate or grant any Lien on, nor otherwise dispose of,
any Lease, any Equipment, any Escrow Agreement or any Escrow Fund or any interest in any thereof.
18.2. Lessor may assign its rights, title and interest in and to any Lease, any Equipment or any Escrow
Agreement (including the Escrow Fund thereunder), and/or may grant or assign a security interest in any Lease, its
Equipment or any Escrow Agreement (including the Escrow Fund thereunder), in whole or in part, to any party at
any time and from time to time without Lessee's consent. Any such assignee or lien holder (an "Assignee") shall
have all of the rights of Lessor under the applicable Lease and Escrow Agreement. LESSEE AGREES NOT TO ASSERT
AGAINST ANY ASSIGNEE ANY CLAIMS, ABATEMENTS, SETOFFS, COUNTERCLAIMS, RECOUPMENT OR ANY OTHER
SIMILAR DEFENSES WHICH LESSEE MAY HAVE AGAINST LESSOR. Unless otherwise agreed by Lessee in writing, any
United City of Yorkville │ Comprehensive Infrastructure Analysis 51

such assignment transaction shall not release Lessor from any of Lessor's obligations under the applicable Lease.
An assignment or reassignment of any of Lessor's right, title or interest in a Lease, its Equipment or any Escrow
Agreement (including the Escrow Fund thereunder) shall be enforceable against Lessee only after Lessee receives a
written notice of assignment that discloses the name and address of each such Assignee. Lessee shall keep
a complete and accurate record of all such assignments in the form necessary to comply with Section 149(a) of
the Code. Lessee agrees to acknowledge in writing any such assignments if so requested.
18.3. Subject to the foregoing, each Lease inures to the benefit of and is binding upon the successors and
assigns of the parties hereto.
19. EVENTS OF DEFAULT.
For each Lease, "Event of Default" means the occurrence of any one or more of the following events as
they may relate to such Lease: (a) Lessee fails to make any Rent Payment (or any other payment) as it becomes
due in accordance with the terms of the Lease, and any such failure continues for fifteen (15) days after the due
date thereof; (b) Lessee fails to perform or observe any of its obligations under Section 12.1, 14 or 18.1
hereof; (c) Lessee fails to perform or observe any other covenant, condition or agreement to be performed or

notice thereof by Lessor; (d) any statement, representation or warranty made by Lessee in the Lease or in any
writing delivered by Lessee pursuant thereto or in connection therewith proves at any time to have been false,
misleading or erroneous in any material respect as of the time when made; (e) Lessee applies for or consents to
the appointment of a receiver, trustee, conservator or liquidator of Lessee or of all or a substantial part of its
assets, or a petition for relief is filed by Lessee under any federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or
similar law; or (f) Lessee shall be in default under any other Lease or under any other financing agreement executed
at any time with Lessor.
20. REMEDIES.
If any Event of Default occurs, then Lessor may, at its option, exercise any one or more of the following
remedies:
(a) Lessor may require Lessee to pay (and Lessee agrees that it shall pay) all amounts then
currently due under all Leases and all remaining Rent Payments due under all Leases during the fiscal year
in effect when the default occurs together with accrued interest on such amounts at the respective rates
provided in such Leases from the date of Lessor's demand for such payment;
(b) Lessor may require Lessee to promptly return all Equipment to Lessor in the manner set
forth in Section 21 (and Lessee agrees that it shall so return the Equipment), or Lessor may, at its option,
enter upon the premises where any Equipment is located and repossess such Equipment upon seven (7)
days' prior notice to Lessee, without any court order or other process of law and without liability for any
damage occasioned by such repossession;
(c) Lessor may sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any Equipment, in whole or in part, in one or more
public or private transactions, and if Lessor so disposes of any Equipment, then Lessor shall apply the entire
proceeds of such disposition as follows: first, to pay costs that Lessor has incurred in connection with
exercising its remedies; second, to payment of amounts that are payable by Lessee under clause (a)
above; and then to payment of the Termination Value set forth in the applicable Payment Schedule for the
United City of Yorkville │ Comprehensive Infrastructure Analysis 52

last Rent Payment due date for the fiscal year in which the related default occurs; provided, however, that any
disposition proceeds in excess of payment of all of the foregoing amounts shall be paid promptly by Lessor
to Lessee;
(d) Lessor may terminate, cancel or rescind any Lease as to any and all Equipment;
(e) Lessor may exercise any other right, remedy or privilege that may be available to Lessor
under applicable law or, by appropriate court action at law or in equity, Lessor may enforce any of Lessee's
oblig ations under any Lease or with respect to the Escrow Fund under the related Escrow Agreement;
and/or
(f) Lessor may require Lessee to pay (and Lessee agrees that it shall pay) all out-of-pocket
costs and expenses incurred by Lessor as a result (directly or indirectly) of the Event of Default and/or of
Lessor's actions under this Section, including, without limitation, any attorney fees and expenses and any
costs related to the repossession, safekeeping, sto rage, repair, reconditioning or disposition of any
Equipment.
None of the above remedies is exclusive, but each is cumulative and in addition to any other
remedy available to Lessor. Lessor's exercise of one or more remedies shall not preclude its exercise of
any other remedy. No delay or failure on the part of Lessor to exercise any remedy under any Lease shall
operate as a waiver thereof, nor as an acquiescence in any default, nor shall any single or partial exercise
of any remedy preclude any other exercise thereof or the exercise of any other remedy.
21. RETURN OF EQUIPMENT.
If Lessor is entitled under the provisions of any Lease, including any termination thereof pursuant to
Section 6 or 20 hereof, to obtain possession of any Equipment or if Lessee is obligated at any time to return any
Equipment, then (a) title to the Equipment shall vest in Lessor immediately upon Lessor's notice thereof to Lessee,
and (b) Lessee shall, at its sole expense and risk, immediately de-install, disassemble, pack, crate, insure and return
the Equipment to Lessor (all in accordance with applicable industry standards). Such Equipment shall be in the
same condition as when received by Lessee (reasonable wear, tear and depreciation resulting from normal and
proper use excepted), shall be in good operating order and maintenance as required by the applicable Lease,
shall be free and clear of any Liens (except Lessor's Lien) and shall comply with all applicable laws and regulations.
Until Equipment is returned as required above, all terms of the applicable Lease shall remain in full force and effect
including, without limitation, obligations to pay Rent Payments and to insure the Equipment. Lessee agrees to
execute and deliver to Lessor all documents reasonably requested by Lessor to evidence the transfer of legal
and beneficial title to such Equipment to Lessor and to evidence the termination of Lessee's interest in such
Equipment.
22. LAW GOVERNING; UCC ARTICLE 2A WAIVER.
(a) Each Lease shall be governed by the laws of the state in which Lessee is located (the "State").
(b) Lessee hereby willingly and knowingly waives any rights or remedies to which it may otherwise
be entitled under Sections 508 through 522, inclusive, of Article 2A of the Uniform Commercial Code in
effect in the State.
23. NOTICES.
All notices to be given under any Lease shall be made in writing and either personally delivered or mailed
by certified mail to the other party at its address set forth herein or at such address as the party may provide
in writing from time to time. Any such notices shall be deemed to have been received five (5) days subsequent
to mailing if sent by regular or certified mail, or on the next business day if sent by overnight courier, or on the day
of delivery if delivered personally.
24. FINANCIAL INFORMATION; INDEMNITY; POWER OF ATTORNEY.

endorse all documents, checks or drafts for loss, theft, damage or destruction to the Equipment under any insurance.
25. SECTION HEADINGS.
All section headings contained herein or in any Schedule are for convenience of reference only and do not
define or limit the scope of any provision of any Lease.
26. EXECUTION IN COUNTERPARTS.
This Master Lease and each Lease may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be an
original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument; provided, however, that only Counterpart
No. 1 of each Lease (including the terms and conditions of this Master Lease incorporated therein by reference)
shall constitute chattel paper for purposes of the applicable Uniform Commercial Code.
27. ENTIRE AGREEMENT; WRITTEN AMENDMENTS.
Each Lease, Escrow Agreement and other documents or instruments executed by Lessee and Lessor in
connection therewith constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the lease and financing
of the Equipment covered thereby, and such Lease shall not be modified, amended, altered or changed except with
the written consent of Lessee and Lessor. Any provision of any Lease found to be prohibited by law shall
be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition without invalidating the remainder of the Lease.

6 ILLINOIS ESPC SUMMARY
STATE LEGISLATION
Local Government Energy Conservation Act (50 ILCS 515/1)
The Illinois General Assembly enacted the Local Government Energy Conservation Act (50 ILCS 515/1). This legislation
has created opportunities for local governments to pay for comprehensive energy and maintenance improvement
programs out of energy and maintenance savings generated by retrofitting their facilities. The following are some
additional facts and clarifications on 50 ILCS 515/1:
The law provides local governments with the ability to obtain additional funds for needed capital
improvements.
The improvement package must generate enough energy and operating savings to pay for the
entire project to the average system life of the energy conservation measure or 20 years,
whichever is less.
By using funds budgeted for utility and operating costs, the legislation enables local
governments to accomplish necessary building repairs and energy conservation improvements
without additional capital outlays.
Because these projects are completely based on performance, a local government can select companies and
products that will give them the greatest value instead of being forced to use the lowest bids.
Future maintenance expenses and demands will be reduced because it costs less to maintain new
equipment.
As energy costs continue to rise, the excess funds that become available as a result of this program will
continue to increase.
This approach has been particularly beneficial by combining low cost, high-yield energy conservation measures to create
a package that addresses needs and fits into the Local Government Energy Conservation Act.

Sec. 10. Evaluation of proposal. Before entering into a guaranteed energy savings contract under Section 15, a
unit of local government shall submit a request for proposals. The unit of local government shall evaluate any sealed
proposal from a qualified provider. The evaluation shall analyze the estimates of all costs of installations, modifications,
or remodeling, including, without limitation, costs of a pre- installation energy audit or analysis, design, engineering,
installation, maintenance, repairs, debt service, conversions to a different energy or fuel source, or post-installation
project monitoring, data collection, and reporting. The evaluation shall include a detailed analysis of whether either the
energy consumed or the operating costs, or both, will be reduced. If technical assistance is not available by a licensed
architect or registered professional engineer on the unit of local government's staff, then the evaluation of the proposal
shall be done by a registered professional engineer or architect who is retained by the unit of local government.
Any licensed architect or registered professional engineer evaluating a proposal under this Section may not have
any financial or contractual relationship with a qualified provider or other source that would constitute a conflict of
interest. The unit of local government may pay a reasonable fee for evaluation of the proposal or include the fee as part
of the payments made under Section 20. (Source: P.A. 94-1062, eff. 7-31-06.)
(50 ILCS 515/15)
Sec. 15. Award of guaranteed energy savings contract. Sealed proposals must be opened by a member of the
unit of local government's governing body or an employee of the unit of local government at a public opening at which
the contents of the proposals must be announced. Each person or entity submitting a sealed proposal must
receive at least 10 days notice of the time and place of the opening. The unit of local government shall
select the qualified provider that best meets the needs of the unit of local government. The unit of local
government shall provide public notice of (i) the meeting at which it proposes to award a guaranteed energy
savings contract, (ii) the names of the parties to the proposed contract, and (iii) the purpose of the contract.
The public notice shall be made at least 10 days prior to the meeting. After evaluating the proposals under
Section 10, a unit of local government may enter into a guaranteed energy savings contract with a qualified provider if
it finds that the amount it would spend on the energy conservation measures recommended in the proposal would not
exceed the amount to be saved in either energy or operational costs, or both, within a 10 year period from the date of
installation, if the recommendations in the proposal are followed. (Source: P.A. 88-173.)
(50 ILCS 515/20)
Sec. 20. Guarantee. The guaranteed energy savings contract shall include a written guarantee of the qualified
provider that either the energy or operational cost savings, or both, will meet or exceed within 20 years the costs of the
energy conservation measures. The qualified provider shall reimburse the unit of local government for any shortfall of
guaranteed energy savings projected in the contract. A qualified provider shall provide a sufficient bond to the unit of
local government for the installation and the faithful performance of all the measures included in the contract. The
guaranteed energy savings contract may provide for payments over a period of time, not to exceed 20 years
from the date of the final installation of the measures. (Source: P.A. 96-1197, eff. 7-22-10.)

Request for Proposals
The next step in the process leading to a fully developed energy savings performance contract, per 50 ILCS 515/1, is
the release of a request for proposals/qualifications for performance contracting services. Leopardo’s energy savings
performance contracting proposal is an iterative process that takes into consideration the needs and wants of the City.
Leopardo will develop the scope of the development project based on the energy savings and financial goals of the City.
This process will lead to a fully-developed project with firm pricing for each and every ECM investigated, and the
payback/energy savings guarantee criteria spelled out in a straight forward manner.
Energy Conservation Measures
The product of this process is an investment grade audit addressing all City buildings identified as having potential in
the preliminary study and as directed by the City. This audit will look at all the equipment and the infra-structure as a
whole. The main areas of concern are:
Lighting (Interior and Exterior)
Heating Equipment
Cooling Equipment
Heating and Cooling Controls
Lighting Controls
Building Envelope
Water Conservation
Water Meter Upgrades
And will give consideration to Renewable Energy Options
Leopardo will commit a team of engineers and a project manager who will analyze each potential improvement measure.
The analysis will be a fully developed and firm bid project backed document providing the City with a dynamic report
that will illuminate the cost/benefit of each ECM identified by the team. Using this analysis the City's leadership team
will pick and choose the most beneficial set of ECMs that will serve the goals of the City. The proprietary spreadsheet
that will be used in the decision making process allows multiple what-if scenarios to be developed and will demonstrate
clearly the benefits that will accrue as the result of implementation for any combination of improvement measures. As
a part of this phase, the developed ECM sheet will be optimized for the desired outcome of the project and a final project
will be identified and adopted.
