Ayes -8 Nays -0 Kot -aye, Ohare -aye, Munns -aye, Spears -aye, Sticka -aye, Besco -aye, Burd -aye, James -aye Development /Economic Initiative Agreement for Wesley Property Corp. A motion was made by Alderman Sticka to approve the Development Economic Initiative Agreement for Wesley Property Corporation and to authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute all documents; seconded by Alderman Kot. Alderman Spears commented that the City Council did not have time to review the revisions because they received it as tonight's meeting began. Alderman Sticka agreed that the Council receiving information just prior to the meeting is inappropriate however the changes to the agreement were made in response to specific items discussed at the Committee of the Whole meeting. He stated that blanks in the agreement along with some wording he objected to were removed. Other changes were formatting issues such as bullet points. Alderman Sticka noted that there is a timing issue; the engineering work for the traffic light at Wheaten Avenue and Route 47 should begin as soon as possible. He felt that it was not a totally new agreement and the Council should consider going forward to approve it. Mayor Prochaska went over the changes made to the agreement. The Minutes of the Regular Meeting of the Citv Council — February 22. 2005 — Dage 7 Alderman Spears asked where signalization to the Route 47 intersection was addressed in the agreement. Alderman Sticks noted that he pointed out at the COW meeting that this is not specifically addressed and he would like to see the wording added. Mayor Prochaska agreed and suggested that paragraph i) on page 4 of the agreement be amended to read "The design and construction of intersection improvements including signalization._.. ". Alderman Kot asked if the words "roadway expansions" meant the addition of turn lanes on Route 47. Administrator Graff stated that this will be dictated by the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT). Alderman Kot asked how the cost was determined if IDOT hasn't indicated what will be needed. Mr. Graff stated that the cost was determined by the scope of work and the "worse case scenario ". Alderman Kot stated that he agreed with Alderman Sticka's comment regarding the urgency of the signalization because it is a safety concern at the location. He was concerned that the cost covers what the City thinks it will. Alderman Spears noted the addition of item v) on page 4 and questioned if this was discussed by the City Council. Mayor Prochaska stated that this item was generated when the amount in item iv) was capped. This allows for the annual review of sales tax revenue and the possibility of increasing the distribution in access of the cap set forth. Alderman Sticka noted that some of the increase revenue in sale tax gets rebated back to pay for public improvements however there is an immediate net gain in sales tax to the City. Mayor Prochaska noted that the improvements make the industrial park more viable for future businesses. Alderman Spears stated that F.E. Wheaton is good for the community however she has a problem with getting documents after a meeting begins. Mayor Prochaska stated that her point was well taken and the Council should not have to approve things without more time to review them however this is a matter of public safety. He also noted that the petitioner would like the agreement approved before they move forward with the engineering. Alderman Sticka reiterated that the changes are visible and previously discussed and it serves the community's interest to move ahead. There was no further discussion. Motion approved by a roll call vote.

ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE REPORT 2005/2006 Budget — Salary Increase Recommendation A motion was made by Alderman James to approve the Fiscal Year 2005/2006 Budget Salary Increase recommendation of 2.5% for the modified Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) and 1.5% merit; seconded by Alderman Bard. Alderman Kot questioned how the 2.5% COLA increase was determined. Alderman James explained that the state is using 3.3% however the Administration Committee discussed the amount and recommended that the overall salary increase should be 4 %. This was broken down between a merit and COLA increase. Alderman James stated that it has been questioned if the City should have a COLA increase or just a 4% merit increase. He stated that he was open to this suggestion. Alderman Ohare stated that she did some research with the staff. There are 51 full -time employees and most of them are within a salary range of $20,000.00 to $45,000.00. She stated that a merit raise recognizes their performance and noted that if an employee making $35,000.00 /year was to receive a 1.5% merit raise, it would be increase of about $.25/hour. She stated that she felt that this is an insult to an employee doing a good job. She felt that the employees would be more receptive to a 0% to 4% merit raise. She also noted that the cost of employee's health insurance has increased however the increase has not been passed on to the employees. With this in mind, she suggested that the COLA increase be dropped and the supervisors be allowed to give a merit raise of up to 4 %. Alderman Sticks clarified that for any proposed changes to be considered, the motion would have to be defeated. Mayor Prochaska stated that Attorney Wyeth clarified that the motion could be defeated, amended or tabled. The Minutes of the Regular Meeting of the Citv Council — February 22, 2005 — oa ee88 Mayor Prochaska clarified that Alderman Ohare was proposing that no employee would be guaranteed a raise; it would be dependant on the review process and merit. Alderman Ohare stated that this was correct. Alderman Burd commented that she felt that what Alderman Ohare was proposing was less positive for the employees than the way raises are set up now. Currently, every employee is guaranteed a raise whereas instituting a raise dependant totally on merit does not ensure an employee a increase. She felt that this could be a negative. Alderman Munns noted that most businesses do not guarantee a raise; employees have to earn it. He felt that a merit raise is more motivational for the employees. Alderman Kot commented that he felt that 4% was not enough of an increase for the employees and suggested it be increased to 5 %. i There was further discussion on the two methods of salary increase, the percentage for a merit increase and employee benefits. Alderman Besco called the question. Attorney Wyeth explained that he did some research and a vote is required if the question is called. "To call the question" is a motion that needs to be seconded and a super majority is needed for it to pass (six votes out of eight). • motion was made by Alderman Besco to call the question; seconded by Alderman Burd. Motion to call the question defeated by a roll call vote. Ayes -5 Nays -3 Burd -aye, James -nay, Kot -nay, Munns -aye, Ohare -nay, Spears -aye, Sticka -aye, Besco -aye • motion was made by Alderman James to amend the motion approving the Fiscal Year 2005/2006 Budget Salary Increase recommendation to a 04% merit and no COLA increase; seconded by Alderman Sticka. Alderman Munns clarified that the motion on the table was for a 04% merit increase, no COLA increase and it can be revisited in the future. Mayor Prochaska stated that this is just for the 2005/2006 Fiscal Year. Alderman Munns commented that he surveyed fifteen people and not one of them is getting over a 4% increase this year. He noted that the free health insurance alone is quite a benefit. Alderman Kot stated that he felt that the City Council was a good custodian of the taxpayer's money and he did not feel that an increase to a 5% merit raise would place a burden on the City's budget. He felt that if the City does not continue to pay employees fairly a time will come when the salaries will need to be adjusted. He noted that this has happened on several occasions. Mayor Prochaska stated that the City has good employees who have served the taxpayer's well with their hard work. He stated that he was concerned that salary adjustments in the future may not be easy. He felt that salaries should be kept in line with others in the field. He was also concerned with a point system in regards to performance reviews and the possibility that an employee may not get a raise. He recommended keeping the overall raise at 4% however allowing the department heads the opportunity to give individual raises up to 5 %. Alderman Sticka stated that he agreed with this suggestion. Alderman Besco stated he felt that by allowing this, there could be potential problems. He felt the original proposed salary increase of COLA and merit was acceptable. There was further discussion on salaries being public record, merit versus COLA increases, a point system used for performance reviews and insurance benefits.
