PRESENTATIONS Downtown Plan Update Stephen Yas from Yas/Fischel Partnership gave the City Council a Downtown Plan Update. He stated that on January 6, 2005 there was a public meeting at the Historic Court House where four alternate downtown plans were presented. He explained that in developing the plans certain things were considered: • History of the area — historic buildings, the old trolley line, property owners • Business district • Expected market — research population and interests, research anchors for area, specialty shops, restaurants • Modem space — combining retail with residential, chain specialty stores, etc. • Desired businesses — art gallery, pet store, etc. • Successful downtowns — mixed uses — combining retail with housing, entertainment, reflect character and image of community, recreation use, etc. • Discussions with Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) — design Route 47 to reflect area; wider sidewalks, parkway plantings, parallel parking, etc. Mr. Yas went through the four options presented: A. The street remains the same as it is today however parking on Route 47 is omitted and there will be four lanes of traffic. The historic buildings on the east side of the street would be preserved and infill building would be created that are more suited towards retail and designed to be appropriate to the historic area. The west side of the street would remain the same except for a new building in the vacant lot. Parking underground would be created east of Route 47 with condominiums overlooking the river. Also proposed is a community center with an outdoor relationship to the Fox River and a new City Hall. B. This plan is similar however the locations of the proposed civic buildings have been changed. The Minutes of the Regular Meeting of the Citv Council — April 26, 2005 — pafe 3 C. Route 47 is widened and the historic structures on the east side of the street would be moved. A senior center would be added to the line -up of the civic buildings (City Hall, Community Center,etc.). D. This option moves the historic buildings on the east side 100' back to create a village green. Parallel parking would be on the west side of Route 47 with no parking on the east side. Additional parking could be under the village green due to the hill. The City Hall would be located east of the village green along with a possible community and senior center. Mr. Yas presented diagrams indicating the existing street and then of the proposed plans. Mayor Prochaska asked which plan was most favorable received by the public. Mr. Yas stated that a survey was handed out and 100% indicated that they wanted civic buildings in the downtown and 90 -95% liked Option D with the village green. He noted that they are moving ahead on a final public meeting where they will show Option D developed further. Alderman Burd noted that she spoke with several residents and they indicated that Option D caught people's imaginations. She congratulated Mr. Yas on the good work. Mr. Yas also recommended to the City Council that they look into a Tax Increment Financing District for the redevelopment of the downtown area. CONSENT AGENDA 1.

Alderman Spears had several concerns with the agreement: • Page 2 - a date was needed on the agreement and Attorney Wyeth stated that this date will be added when the preliminary plan is adopted. • Page 3 - the southeast interceptor was referred to as "ComEd" and she asked which term was correct and Administrator Graff stated that "southeast interceptor" was the correct term. • Page 4 — Item 5. A. - the donations and contributions dollar amounts were left blank. Attorney Wyeth stated that when the documents are assembled with the attachments, this information will be filled in. Alderman Spears questioned voting on the document without this information being filled in. Mayor Prochaska stated that the donations and contributions are dealt with when the final plat is submitted. The dollars amount could vary by that time. • The preliminary plan is not attached to the agreement. Administrator Graff stated that the preliminary plan was submitted on April 25, 2005 and is under review. He stated that it is essentially the same as the one in the City Council packets. Mayor Prochaska asked for clarification if it is a preliminary plan or plat. Administrator Graff stated that it is the preliminary plan. • Page 8 — Item 10 — refers to paragraph 5 C but should be 5 D. • She noted that it was added to bury the utilities. Alderman Sticka stated that he agreed with Alderman Spears that it is not appropriate to have blank amounts in a document being approved. Attorney Wyeth noted that the amounts are set by ordinance and Alderman Sticka stated that if that is the case then they definitely should be in the agreement. Mayor Prochaska noted that the donations and contributions are payable at the time of the final plat. He stated that if the amounts are set now and the ordinance governing them is changed by the time of the final plat, the increased dollar amount cannot be collected. He noted that developers sometimes do the final plats in phases. Alderman Sticka suggested taking out the blanks and adding verbiage saying the amount is to be paid at final plat. The developer stated that they did not have a problem with this verbiage being changed. Alderman Ohare withdrew her second; Alderman Sticka withdrew the motion. A motion was made by Alderman Sticka, to approve the Annexation Agreement of Yorkville Farms Development known as Prestwick of Yorkville Subdivision with a zoning classification of R -2 Single Family Residence District and to approve the Ordinance authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk to execute all document subject to final legal review with the addition that donations and contributions will be set by ordinance at the time of final plat; seconded by Alderman Ohare.

Alderman Besco asked how the portion of the property affected was determined. Mayor Prochaska stated that there are portions of the property that have an Annexation Agreement or an Annexation Agreement and Planned Unit Development. Attorney Wyeth stated that the prior Annexation Agreements are being rolled into one new agreement. Mayor Prochaska noted that the City received confirmation regarding the burying of utility lines. Administrator Graff stated that Centex Homes was showed the language regarding buried utilities and they are open to including this language in the agreement. Ken Stough from Centex Homes confirmed that the language was acceptable and they agreed to add it to the agreement. Mayor Prochaska read the language from the Prestwick of Yorkville agreement as an example. Alderman Besco stated that there was an issue with the amount of the SSA cap noted in the agreement. Mr. Stough stated that Centex would be agreeable with setting the cap amount at $50 Million. Treasurer Powell questioned the voltage of the power lines to be buried. Mr. Stough was unsure. There was some discussion regarding the voltage and Treasurer Powell stated that he felt it was a mistake to bury the lines. He stated that he thought one of the lines was high voltage and explained that it could be extremely expensive to repair along with increased outage times in the event of problems with the line. Mayor Prochaska stated that the burying of the line will be governed by ordinance and he suggested that the ordinance be reviewed to address Treasurer Powell's concerns. Alderman Sticka commented that this is a highly technical area and he suggested that the City should bring in an independent consultant to review the ordinance and suggest how the utilities should be addressed. Mayor Prochaska felt that this was an appropriate suggestion however at this time the annexation agreement will stated that if the City passes an ordinance the developer would abide by it. Mayor Prochaska noted that the City would be having a meeting with ComEd on April 29, 2005. Alderman Spears asked if elected officials could attend and Alderman Sticka noted that if elected officials attend this meeting with ComEd it becomes a public meeting. Mayor Prochaska suggested that rather than the City Council member attending the April 29" meeting, ComEd be asked to make a presentation at either an Economic Development Committee or Public Works Committee meeting. Alderman Spears asked if the Bristol- Kendall Fire District was listed in Exhibit "M" as mentioned on page 28 of the agreement regarding Fees and Charges. Mr. Stough stated explained that the information for Exhibit "M' was finalized as of today. Alderman Spears asked for a copy of the exhibit. Administrator Graff note that this is the first time a fee schedule has The Minutes of the Regular Meeting of the Citv Council — ADrll 26.2005 — Daze 7 been asked for from a developer and that it still needs to be reviewed by staff. The schedule was distributed to the City Council. Alderman Sticka suggested restating the motion to cover the discussed items. Alderman James withdrew his second; Alderman Sticka withdrew the motion.

Ayes -8 Nays -0 James -aye, Kot -aye, Munns -aye, Ohare -aye, Spears -aye, Sticka -aye, Besco -nay, Burd -aye Resolution 2005 -24 Approving Engineering Enterprises, Inc. Professional Engineering Services for Feasibility Study of a Western Roadway Corridor and Fox River Crossing, Illinois Route 71 to Base Line Road A motion was made by Alderman Sticka to approve a Resolution approving agreement with Engineering Enterprises, Inc. (EEI) for Professional Engineering Services for a Feasibility Study of a Western Roadway Corridor between Route 34 and Baseline Road subject to identifying and securing funding; seconded by Alderman Besco. Alderman Munns questioned the change in the study since it was first presented. Mayor Prochaska explained that the study was from Route 34 to Baseline Road. The southern portion is already part of the Fox area transportation study. He stated it was discussed at the Committee of the Whole (COW) that Smith Engineering presented a letter of intent for a needs assessment for a river crossing. He stated that the original proposed study is being broken up into smaller studies. Alderman Burd asked what the fee for this study would be. Administrator Graff stated that the fee is $99,339.00. Alderman Burd stated that she received calls from residents with concerns about the project; some residents feel there is collusion with EEI and the village of Sugar Grove and that they will be controlling how the United City of Yorkville is to build its roads. She stated that this study is a response to something that has already been put into play by Sugar Grove however she felt that Yorkville needs to look at the opportunity presented as the road is already coming in Yorkville's direction. She stated that she wished Yorkville had been the one to initiate the project. In regards to a bridge, she stated she agreed with what some of the residents are hoping for; that when another development comes in between their development and the Hoover Outdoor Education Center the easement line could be moved so that the existing tree line is protected. Alderman Spears expressed her concern with the road coming from and ending at Route 34. She stated that additional traffic does not need to be directed to Route 34 at Route 47. She stated that The Minutes of the Regular Meeting of the Citv Council — Anril 26.2005 — nag8 she was not comfortable with the study and would rather see the funds spent on Elda.main Road or an eastern river crossing. She also questioned the cost of the study. She stated that the original cost of the study was $134,000.00 for a 7.3 mile study or $18,480.00 /mile. The current proposal is for fewer miles at a cost of $23,795.00/mile. Jeff Freeman with EEI distributed a handout supporting their fees (see attached). He went over the schedule with the City Council and gave a detailed explanation of how the cost of the study was determined. He noted that the cost was not determined per mile of the road but rather by the hours needed to perform the study. Alderman Burd questioned if a feasibility study was needed since it is evident this road is coming toward Yorkville. Mayor Prochaska explained that the study will create the corridor for the road and identifies it for developers who are coming into the area. Mayor Prochaska further noted that Yorkville's Comprehensive Plan shows a road going to the county line prior to Sugar Grove designing their road. He also noted that part of the boundary agreement with Sugar Grove was that roads would be designed to match up and be consistent. Alderman Munns stated that the residents he spoke to in Fox Hill and Cannonball Trail areas were concerned on roads going south not north. He agreed with Alderman Spears that ending the road at Route 34 will only create more traffic for residents to get out of these subdivisions. He also felt that ending the road at Route 34 would delay extending the road south. Alderman Sticka commented that fearing that adding a road will make traffic worse didn't seem to make sense. He felt that the road could ease traffic on Route 47 and he agreed with Alderman Munns about the road going south because it would offer greater opportunities to help traffic. He stated that this is an opportunity to institute a plan that will cause million of dollars of roadway to be built by developers. Alderman Besco stated that he has often heard it stated that there is collusion with EEI. He noted that he had minutes from a Public Works Committee meeting from February 28, 2005 where Alderman Sticka brought the study proposed by EEI back before the City Council. He further commented that he felt that another river crossing was needed. Alderman Sticka stated that collusion implies that the City Council is getting some personal benefit from the deal. He stated that EEI is a company that the City has had a working relationship for some period of time and they have done excellent work for the City. Alderman Ohare noted that the reason the City wanted EEI to work on this project was because they were not working with any developer in the study area. Alderman Spears asked if there were developments in the study area that have been annexed to the City. Mayor Prochaska stated that there were none in the study area yet. She clarified that any future developers would have to build the road and Mayor Prochaska stated that this was correct. He further explained that by the City identifying the type of road needed, it will be built to Yorkville's specification. Alderman Kot commented that it was time to move this issue ahead. He felt that the study was a good compromise and a sensible approach. He stated that separating the studies will allow a time consideration needed to establish whether or not a bridge is needed. A motion was made by Alderman Kot to call the question; seconded by Alderman Ohare. Motion to call the question approved by a roll call vote.

Aldermen Spears and Burd commented that they were not comfortable with SSAs. Alderman Burd stated that she felt that affects of SSAs on people in the community should be researched. She suggested a workshop in June 2005 with local real estate agents and developers where the City Council could ask questions about the affects. Alderman James also suggested inviting residents who own homes with SSAs to the workshop. Mayor Prochaska also suggested that the Economic Development Committee review the ordinance allowing SSAs. Alderman Munns asked for clarification about voting for the SSA at this time. Attorney Wyeth explained that the SSA is part of Autumn Creek's Annexation Agreement and if the City Council would not approve the SSA it would be a breach of the Annexation Agreement. Mayor Prochaska noted that the motion is to approve a Resolution of Intent. I Motion approved by a roll call vote. Ayes -5 Nays -2 Present -1 Ohare -aye, Spears -nay, Sticka -aye, Besco -nay, Burd -aye, James -aye, Kot -aye, Munns- present Ordinance 2005 -38 Approving the Revision of the 2004 -2005 Fiscal Budget A motion was made by Alderman James to approve an Ordinance approving the revision of the 2004 -2005 Fiscal Budget as presented; seconded by Alderman Sticka.

Alderman Spears had several concerns: • The first page of the budget indicates that the Land Use Planner will begin employment in January and the Park Designer in August however page 7 reflects different dates. Finance Director Pleckham stated that the correct dates are January and September respectfully. • She reviewed the Employee Manual regarding education reimbursement which states that "any request that is not included within the budget must receive approval by the Mayor and the appropriate City Council committee ". She stated she would like to see this happen so she asked that the comments in the tuition reimbursement accounts on pages 2 ( #01- 110- 64 -00- 5604), page 4 (# 01- 150- 64 -00- 5604), and page 26 ( #79 -650- 64-00 -5602) be removed. She stated that the dollar amount would remain the same and would only affect about four employees. Mayor Prochaska clarified that the funds would stay in the line item but the comments would be removed. Any employee requesting tuition reimbursement will have to come before the City Council for approval of the reimbursement. • She requested that when the next budget is prepared that the term "tuition" be consistently used instead of "professional growth ". The Minutes of the Regular Meeting of the Citv Council — April 26. 2005 — na 10 Alderman Munns had a few comments and concerns: • He asked for clarification of the budget amounts listed on page 1 of the ordinance. Director Pleckham explained that the entire budget is $58,000,000.00 (all funds) whereas there is $18,000,000.00 in the General Fund alone. • He asked if employees get deductions for both IMRF and Social Security (page 4). Director Pleckham stated all employees participate in both programs. • He commented that the increase for health insurance was $200,000.00. He suggested that health insurance cost should be addressed in the future and an employee contribution should be considered.
