PRESENTATION •
Speer Financial
Mayor Prochaska turned the floor over to Barbara Chevalier,Vice President of Speer Financial,
for a presentation on the refinancing of City Hall. Ms.Chevalier distributed a letter dated
December 10,2002(see attached)regarding a bid from Bernardi Securities,Inc.for the purchase
of Refunding Debt Certificates, Series 2002A being sold by the United City of Yorkville. The
certificates were issued in 1990 and were based on a balloon plan. Bernardi has offered to
• purchase the Debt Certificates at a net interest cost of 4.8879%which is very favorable. Speer
Financial recommends the bonds be awarded to them. Also attached to the letter is the debt
service schedule. Ms.Chevalier asked if the Council had any questions.
Alderman Sticka asked what the difference was between a debt certificate and a bond. Ms.
Chevalier explained that for a community to issue bonds there has to be a referendum but this is
not necessary with debt certificates. Also,debt certificates do not require a specific stream of
revenue to be identified but do count against the City's borrowing ability.
Mr.Graff asked when the original debt certificates balloon payment was scheduled and Ms.
Chevalier stated that this was due in 2005. Mr.Graff noted that the rates are locked in for the
term of the certificates.
The Minutes of the Regular Meeting of the City Council-December 10,2002-page 2
Mayor Prochaska commented that interest rates are favorable so this is an opportune time to
move forward. The payments for the new debt certificates are only slightly higher. Ms.
Chevalier stated that the payments are about$100,000.00/year.
There were no further questions or comments.
CITIZEN COMMENTS
None.
PUBLIC HEARINGS
Wetland Protection Ordinance
Mayor Prochaska entertained a motion to go into public hearing for the Wetland Protection
Ordinance. So moved by Alderman Sticka;seconded by Alderman Anderson.
Motion approved by a roll call vote. Ayes-7 Nays-0
Anderson-aye,Besco-aye,Burd-aye,James-aye,Kot-aye,Spears-aye, Sticka-aye
City Attorney Kramer explained that there was a United States Supreme Court decision that
stated that the Army Corp of Engineers does not have jurisdiction over certain wetland areas such
as those not connected to navigable streams,migratory bird paths,etc. In the Yorkville area are
such wetlands which may need to be preserved. This ordinance will establish a uniform policy
and standards for these situations. Attorney Kramer turned the floor over to Becca Cerf of
Conservation Design Forum(CDF)for further information.
Ms.Cerf addressed the Council and distributed an outline for the ordinance. She discussed that
the draft ordinance was developed by using the best of the language from four other ordinances in
effect in Kane,Lake and DuPage Counties as well as the state of Michigan. CDF also tried to be
respectful of developers while drafting the ordinance. The standards for the protection of the
wetlands include buffer requirements,wetland hydrology protection,detention in wetlands,
discharge into the wetlands and the protection of all preserved wetlands. She stated that the
ordinance would require baseline data on all wetland areas and after development occurs the
periodic re-evaluation of the areas. There will also be language regarding wetland quality;i.e.
roadside ditches versus high quality wetlands and will also include the standard requirements for
a wetland permit.
The floor was open to public comments or questions.
Richard Guerard with Wyndham Deerpoint Homes stated that he had a number of comments for
the Council but he felt it would be more appropriate to address them in a letter form. He asked
the Council to approach the ordinance as if they were willing to apply the regulations in it to the
City itself. He stated that with this in mind,they will see how onerous and expensive the
ordinance can be. He felt that a swale,ditch or anything like it that is man made should never be
considered wetland. He also asked for flexibility with the width of buffers.
There was no further public comments so the floor was opened to the Council.
Alderman Sticka asked if someone has already built a structure in an area that is considered a
buffer area would this be a violation. Ms.Cerf stated that the ordinance would not affect
anything currently in place but anything developed after the ordinance's effective date. He asked
if the types of plants helped to designates the quality of wetlands. Ms.Cerf stated that sediments
and nutrients in a wetland change the type of vegetation growing in them. Alderman Sticka
pointed out that Purple Loosestrife is found growing around attractive wetlands areas. He asked
that since this plant is not deemed"valuable"would its presence indicate that the wetland does
not need as much protection as one without the plant. Ms.Cerf indicated that Purple Loosestrife
is evasive,has no natural insect to control it,is not a native plant and wetlands with this plant
loose their value in terms of function. However,this plant can be useful in detention areas which
are a lower quality wetland area.
Mayor Prochaska noted that page 9,#8 of the ordinance refers to the use of buffer areas as
passive recreation areas. He asked Attorney Kramer if this would conflict with the Land Cash
Ordinance. Attorney Kramer did not feel it necessarily conflicted with it. He noted that CDF
was involved in the restoration and creation of a wetland area in the Deerpath Creek development
in Oswego. The Park District did take this as part of their land cash contribution because they
wanted the area preserved. Mayor Prochaska clarified that a buffer area could be offset by credit
towards land cash if it is designed correctly and Attorney Kramer stated that this was correct.
The Minutes of the Regular Meeting of the City Council-December 10,2002-page 3
Alderman Sticka asked if the ordinance addressed any existing situations where a wetland area is
being polluted. Ms.Cerf stated that this falls under the Environmental Protection Agency's
(EPA)jurisdiction and needs to be reported to them. Alderman Sticka stated that the ordinance
was named the United City of Yorkville Wetland Protection Ordinance and he felt it should
protect existing wetlands.Attorney Kramer explained that the intent is to protect wetlands from
the design stage. Alderman Sticka pointed out Section 1.3 of the ordinance and stated that it does
not mention the fact that the ordinance is just for new development. He felt the purpose of the
ordinance should be clarified.
Mayor Prochaska asked if an existing structure that is grand fathered into a wetland area is
destroyed for whatever reason could it be rebuilt. Attorney Kramer noted that language was
taken from the Kane County ordinance which is very restrictive and protects non jurisdictional
wetlands. They put some savings provisions in to address circumstances such as this. The
structure could be rebuilt within the original footprint but if it is changed or expanded the new
ordinance would apply.
Mr.Graff made a clarification that notices regarding this public hearing were sent out to current
developments that will be going before the Plan Commission. He asked in the event written
comments are received how they should be handled. Mayor Prochaska stated that any comments
should be copied to the Council as they are received. Mr.Graff asked Alderman Sticka how he
would like the purpose of the ordinance clarified and Alderman Sticka stated that the first item
under the purpose of the ordinance should be that this addresses new development and does not
pertain to existing wetlands.
Alderman James asked if the ordinance was going back to committee and it was decided to send
it back to the Public Works Committee in January for their recommendation of the revised draft.
There were no further comments or discussions.
Mayor Prochaska entertained a motion to close the public hearing for the Wetland Protection
Ordinance. So moved by Alderman Kot;seconded by Alderman James.
Motion approved by a roll call vote. Ayes-7 Nays-0

Park and Open Space Developers Policy
Mayor Prochaska entertained a motion to go into public hearing for the Park and Open Space
Developers Policy. So moved by Alderwoman Burd;seconded by Alderman Anderson.
Motion approved by a roll call vote. Ayes-7 Nays-0
Anderson-aye,Besco-aye,Burd-aye,James-aye,Kot-aye, Spears-aye, Sticka-aye
Park and Recreation Director Laura Brown addressed the Council and explained that a policy has
been developed as a guideline for accepting park land from developers. The first section is
definitions of terms. The second is for accepting land/cash donations and lists the variables
depending on the development,land situation,etc. The third section clarifies the minimum
acceptable standards for the donations the Park Board will accept. This section also provides for
resident input for park sites.
The floor was opened for public comments for questions.
Richard Guerard of Wyndham Deerpoint Homes asked the Park Board to consider dry
ponds/detention areas that are under drained and graded properly for recreational areas and give
the developer partial credit towards land cash. He commented that the four bedroom minimum
for single-family homes used to calculate total population should be reconsidered. He felt that
three bedroom homes had less impact on the schools and parks. He also commented that he like
the idea of trail standards but suggested the there should be more flexibility them.
Mayor Prochaska noted that it had been discussed to use a percentage based on an average when
calculating total population. Mr.Graff stated that an analysis was done and it was noticed that
the average of four bedroom homes is well over 50%. He also stated that other communities
have a 75/25 mix,75%four bedrooms and 25%three bedrooms and this could be something to
consider. Attorney Kramer agreed that it is more common to have the split.
There were no further public comments or questions.
Mayor Prochaska stated that Mr.Guerard's comment regarding detention areas was a good
comment and something to consider.
The Minutes of the Regular Meeting of the City Council-December 10,2002,2002-page 4
Park Board member Ken Koch commented that it will be good to have a policy in place for future
dealings with developers.
Mr.Graff noted that City Planner Mike Schoppe and some developers are putting comments
together which he will make available to everyone when he receives them. Mayor Prochaska
suggested that the Park Board review the comments and see if they need to adjust the policy. The
City Council agreed.
Alderman James suggested that the policy be change to notate the Land/Cash Ordinance 1996-03
without the verbiage.
There were no further comments or discussions.
Mayor Prochaska entertained a motion to close the public hearing for the Park and Open Space
Developers Policy. So moved by Alderman Anderson;seconded by Alderwoman Burd.
Motion approved by a roll call vote. Ayes-7 Nays-0

2002 Tax Levy
Mayor Prochaska entertained a motion to open the public hearing for the 2002 Tax Levy. So
moved by Alderman Anderson;seconded by Alderwoman Burd.
Motion approved by a roll call vote. Ayes-7 Nays-0
Anderson-aye,Besco-aye,Burd-aye,James-aye,Kot-aye, Spears-aye,Sticka-aye
Attorney Kramer stated that this is the time to extend the amount of tax revenues received in the
previous year. If there is an increase from last years extension higher than 5%there needs to be a
truth in taxation hearing. The City is over the 5%in terms of the actual dollars received from real
estates taxes. However,due to the growth of the area,the Equalized Assessed Valuation(EAV)
has grown so the actual tax rate for the city has declined.
Mayor Prochaska noted that the dollar amount that the City is looking to extend is$1,476,592.00
which represents a 17.6%increase over the previous year($1,255,485.21). He stated that the
expected EAV is$161,800,530.00 for an increase of 19.67%. The policy has been to take the
increase and work backwards to try and keep the City portion of the real estates taxes from
increasing.
The floor was opened for public comments or questions. There were none.
The floor was opened for Council comments or questions. There were none.
The Mayor noted that the ordinance will come before the Council for a vote and the next City
Council meeting on December 17,2002.

PLANNING COMMISSION/ZONING BOARD OF APPEAL
Grande Reserve Project
Alderman Sticka reported that the Plan Commission heard a presentation on the Grande Reserve
Project. There was much discussion especially regarding the most northerly portion of the
project,the area of"villas"designed for empty nesters. The Plan Commission had a number of
questions regarding setbacks,sidewalks and lot size. The developer stated that they have decided
to move the school site from along the railroad tracks to one along Kennedy Road however this
The Minutes of the Regular Meetine of the City Council-December 17,2002-page 2
hadn't been discussed with the School District. The developer also stated that they would give
title to the City for a large portion of green space for a conservation area.
1'1z Mile Reviews
Two items regarding 11/2 mile reviews were presented. One was for a garden center on Route 71
near Harris Woods and the Commission approved this unanimously. The second was Property
Concept's development(the Kleronomos company)next to the Fields of Farm Colony
subdivision. The Commission discussed setbacks;neighboring subdivisions have 40 foot
setbacks but this one is indicating 30 foot setbacks. The developer stated that the setback was
less so that there would be sufficient space for septic systems. The Commission approved this
with a nine to one vote with the stipulation that the City Engineer's recommendations be
followed.
Concept Plans
A petitioner of a development north of Faxon Road near Cannonball Trail presented a concept
plan. The School Board representative to the Plan Commission commented that the School
Board's recommendation is that anytime a development will generate twenty or more acres of
land/cash,they proposed that the school only accept the land. It is the School Board's belief that
they will have to build more schools in the future and they will need property to do this. This
particular development may need a school site.
The other concept plan was for a development near Route 30 and Route 47. This concept was a
combination of commercial,single-family and multi-family homes and was very crude. The
Commission members stated that there really wasn't anything to discuss. The developer develops
major shopping centers but Alderman Sticka felt that they built many centers not huge centers.
Attorney Kramer noted that the developer has developed both small strip centers to large ones
including Geneva Commons on Randall Road.
MINUTES FOR APPROVAL
None.
