The Minutes of the Regular Meeting of the City Council—March 26,2019—Page 2 of 5 CITIZEN COMMENTS ON AGENDA ITEMS Robyn Sutcliff,Yorkville resident, spoke about the jail. She discussed how appreciative she is with the council for accepting proposals for a future use of the old jail. She said that her goal from the very beginning was for the building to stay standing and be used. She thinks that whichever organization the council selects to use the old jail will be a great addition to Yorkville. Todd Milliron, unincorporated Yorkville resident, spoke about the two proposals to use the old jail. He asked the council to do their due diligence and give these proposals fair consideration. He hopes the council will select one of the proposals and allow the organization to make their vision come into being. He wants an organization to be given a chance to thrive and grow in Yorkville. Johanna Byram,Yorkville resident and member of the Yorkville Historic Preservation Society,thanked the city council for letting interested parties submit their proposals for a future use for this historical building. Irene Kaufman,Yorkville resident, spoke about saving the old jail. She said she was upset when she read an article last year that the jail was going to be demolished. She talked about the history of the old Joliet prison and how the City of Joliet and the historical society partnered to raise money to restore the prison. Now the prison is a tourist attraction,and movies and TV shows have been filmed there. She thinks the old jail should be saved and not destroyed. Lisa Wolancevich, representing the Yorkville Historic Preservation Society, said the preservation society was very happy there are entities that want to preserve the building. She thanked the city council for creating the RFP and being willing to look at the vision that others have for this building.

Ayes-5 Nays-0 Tarulis-aye,Plocher-aye,Frieders-aye, Milschewski-aye,Funkhouser-aye n Sale of 111 W.Madison Street(Old Jail) (CC 2018-88) Alderman Milschewski said the next item to be discussed is the Old Jail. Mayor Golinski commented that since the proposals had just been opened at the beginning of the meeting,no one had a chance to really look at the proposals. Alderman Frieders asked if they could have a short discussion on the proposals that were just received and then bring this back in two weeks. City Administrator Olson was asked if he were to receive more proposals if he would open them.Administrator Olson said that if more proposals were received,they would be opened and distributed to the City Council. Yorkville resident Robyn Sutcliff mentioned to the council that Peter McKnight was present and could answer questions on the proposal he had submitted. Mayor Golinski asked Mr.McKnight if he would like to speak.Mr. McKnight spoke about the proposal he had submitted. Alderman Frieders briefly commented on the two proposals. He mentioned that Mr.McKnight's proposal is a for-profit enterprise;while the other proposal received appears to be a non-profit enterprise. He said that he understands that everyone is making projections at this point;however,he does not want the city to expend taxpayer funds. Alderman Milschewski mentioned that while this property is located in a TIF district that currently does not have any extra funds,the hope would be that in the future there would be funds available as businesses open and operate in the TIF district. Attorney Orr commented that if the property is put into a for-profit commercial use,the property would generate real estate taxes. Since the city owned the building when the TIF was established and is not using the property for a commercial use, if the property switches to a for-profit commercial use under a new owner,most likely 100%of the real estate taxes generated would be incremental taxes. Attorney Orr said that typically all TIF projects are initially unfunded as you take a project that is not producing any taxes and you put it into a profitable commercial n use and then proceed to use the taxes generated to reimburse the cost of the improvements. She said that you cannot determine what the TIF contribution will be until you know the use and you know how the property will be assessed. Additionally, it takes time to see incremental increases in property taxes. As an example,Attorney Orr said that if the city has a piece of property that is sold to a for-profit enterprise, the project has to be constructed or improved and then it has to be re-assessed. It's important to keep in mind that even if project improvements occurred tomorrow,there would not be any tax increment generated for three years. It takes one year to build or improve,another year to be assessed and then it must be remembered that assessments are always a year behind. Administrator Olson mentioned that the Old Jail property is located within the Downtown TIF#2,which was created within the past year. He said there are twenty-three full years for potential incremental taxes to be generated. Mayor Golinski said that staff will analyze the proposals that were submitted,and this will be brought back in two weeks for more discussion. PARK BOARD Facility Plan RFQ (CC 2019-18) Mayor Golinski entertained a motion to authorize staff to issue a request for qualifications for development of plans for a new community recreational center. So moved by Alderman Frieders; seconded by Alderman Plocher. Mayor Golinski asked Director of Parks and Recreation Evans to give the council more information. Director Evans discussed that the first step is to have an architect look to see what the options are and what will the cost be. Once the cost is determined the Park Board and City Council can determine if there n are any funds available or if the city could apply for a facilities grant if one becomes available again. Alderman Funkhouser asked City Administrator Olson what the status is on the city-wide municipal facilities plan RFP. Administrator Olson said that four finalists were interviewed out of the seven proposals that were submitted. Staff has met to review some follow up questions and answers from the proposers.The next step is to bring recommendations for selection to a committee meeting. Alderman Funkhouser would like to stay with the city-wide plan so that the council could look at and consider all city facilities and facility needs at the same time. Motion failed by a roll call vote.Ayes-3 Nays-2 Plocher-aye,Frieders-aye,Milschewski-aye Funkhouser-nay,Tarulis-nay The Minutes of the Reeular Meeting of the City Council—March 26 2019—Page 5 of 5 PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION No report.

Both homes were vacant prior to purchase and one was on a preliminary list for demolition. These two properties turned out to be financially viable efforts, while also adhering to the historic preservation rules as well as the removal of previous improvements that were in violation of those rules and regulations. Prior to these restorations Peter personally developed 53 homes and commercial spaces in the past 8 years. Project Team: Cary Coles - Owner consulting real estate advisor market analysis Peter McKnight - Owner Project Supervisor Jim Ascot: Ascot Realty Group President Kevin Klimeck - Consulting Architect Neal McKnight - Attorney Nathaniel McKnight - Construction/Planning Joe Stevens - Alternative energy consultant Project Vision: Our plan is to work with the state, county, and city government stakeholders as well as the local community and not for profits to repair, remediate, restore the Kendall County Jail site to a income producing property while adhering to the preservation & retention of the relevant historic elements of the building. At present our team envisions potentially two residential units on the 2nd floor and two commercial spaces on the ground level. This is a working template subject to further market analysis and may change depending on market requirements. We intend for the project t to maintain the historic and architectural features of this 1893 building. Additionally this structure will be brought back to a tax revenue producing site. We will have a primary interest in hiring local contractors, workers and materials.Additionally we are focusing on meeting and exceeding “green” environmental standards for the construction and energy usage with an eventual goal of having as close to a carbon neutral site as possible. Site Plan: At the moment the Architectural plans that have been submitted dove tail closely with our plan subject to governmental approval and acceptance and further market analysis. Our architectural consultant has suggested a single use gastro pub of microbrewery Narrative of Feasibility: Part of the reason this structure is in its present condition has been the lack of focused effort & resources to restore, renovate, maintain, & operate this historic property. We expect that with the significant assistance in the form of TIF grants & the successful completion of this project, the deployment of these resources will create a project that will enhance the community and city, as well as adding to the tax base for generations to come.

The first floor of the main building will consist of studio suites available for small-businesses to lease to provide their products and/or services in a safe and secure environment. The second floor of the building will be used as a shelter/resource center for women in hardships, as well as a community center for residents and city representatives to use. The attached structure to the original building will be used as a new detailing/car wash business on the ground floor and the second floor will be rehabilitated as a residential 2- or 3- bedroom rental unit. Commercial Suites During our research we have found this business option to be very beneficial for this location. We have had the opportunity to meet with many perspective leaseholders for the suites to discuss the possibility of their businesses being transferred to this location upon signing a minimum of 5-year lease agreement. Having the different small-businesses in one building will bring great revenue to the city but more importantly bring convenience to the Yorkville residents to have many of their wants and needs available all under one roof. We are currently working with insurance agents, hair salon owners, restaurant owners and massage therapists. Community/Resource Center Imperfect Angels Organization was founded in February of 2016 with a mission to help youth and women reach their full potential. We have grown substantially over the years in our youth program for young girls that helps them with interpersonal skills, business basics, college preparation and more. We have shown over a 30% increase in GPAs, increase in college acceptance and high school graduation rates over the past 3 years. Currently we are based out of the Aurora Police Department, but our vision for the future success of our organization extends way further than our position today. Our plans for the community center will include but not limited to, a health and wellness room for members to use for individual exercising and attend classes that will be conducted for health and wellness needs. We plan to have meeting rooms available for the use of the city representatives and/or instructors that will volunteer to host seminars and educational classes to the members on credit counseling, business, budgeting, technology innovation and more. After surveying and conducting interviews with many of the Yorkville residents, we have shown an abundance of concern with the youth of Yorkville not having a safe environment to come to during their free time. We will have specialized rooms for the youth and young adults to use as well, such as a WI-Fl Homeroom they can come to get tutoring, work on homework individually or with peers which will also include a small sound padded game room, an art room for projects filled with supplies for use, trade rooms for high school students and adults that will have a volunteered facilitator that is certified and trained to give instructional classes on different trades that are available in today's industry and a music room. Last, we will have a reception area that women with hardships can come to get assistance. We will have connections with many of the surrounding organizations that provide Public Information food, clothing, shelter, monetary assistance and more to become a referral site for these women to become a stepping stone in their time of need. In this area we will also allow them access to get assistance with resume writing,job-seeking and budgeting with one of our trained facilitators or staff member to build an individual plan for their success in self-sufficiency and stability. Attached Structure We will rehab the rental property on the second floor to provide a residence for a new or current Yorkville family at an affordable rate. The ground level will be changed from a garage to a small-business commercial suite. With the summer being the peak of the Yorkville downtown area, we want to give the visitors and residents businesses that provide them with their everyday wants and needs while visiting the downtown area as well as bring in great revenue streams for the City of Yorkville as well.
