CITIZEN COMMENTS ON AGENDA ITEMS
James Brown,Yorkville resident, submitted a written comment regarding Planning and Zoning
Commission Item#2—Final Plat of Kendall Marketplace Lot 52 Phase 1 Resubdivision which was read
^ aloud at the meeting by Mayor Purcell as follows: "As a Yorkville resident for the last nine years, and
hopefully many more to come,my concern,as it pertains to the new development, is that it does not
become another Market Place Apartments development. Yorkville needs to continue to attract people
(regardless of Race,Religion,Etc.)that compliment this wonderful City,and strive to keep Yorkville a
great place to live and raise a family. Creating an atmosphere where evil can take root and flourish
should not be allowed in Yorkville. As representatives of the City of Yorkville, it is your duty to
maintain the integrity of this great City, and to maintain that integrity going forward. Thank you for your
time, and keep up the good work. Be safe,Jim Brown."
The Minutes of the Reeular Meeting of the City Council—May 12,2020—Paae 2 of 6

which purchased the townhome portion of the Kendall Marketplace PUD. In its application Abby
Properties requested deviation from the design standards established in the original PUD, a reduction in
the land cash fees, and a final plat of subdivision for the first phase of the development. She stated that
Abby Properties has withdrawn the first two requests and is now only seeking final plat approval.

development was approved. It was mentioned that the townhome portion of this project has been a
challenging topic as existing residents thought the city would have more say in this portion of the project.

there will be parking available in front of each of the garages for the residents to use. With the increased

3 So I am opening up the public
4 hearing for that grant . Are there any members of
5 the Council who have anything to offer? And we
6 are going to be voting on these later on, but
7 this is just a public hearing .
8 Any members of the Council have
9 anything that they want to offer at the public
10 hearing?
11 ALDERMAN FRIEDERS : Mr . Mayor.
12 MAYOR PURCELL: Mr . Frieders .
13 ALDERMAN FRIEDERS : The only thing I
14 want to comment on is something I shared with
15 Bart after we got news of all the applications
16 coming in.
17 I don ' t think it ' s appropriate for
18 us to vote individually on each business; I think
19 this is something where we should be voting all
20 together, so I know that ' s kind of what we ' re
21 going to be doing for the end, but I didn ' t think
22 it was kind of relevant for aldermen and people
23 who are friends and customers of people that are
24 going to be receiving this fund to have to dive
Vitosh Reporting Service 815 . 993. 2832 cros .vitosh@gmail . com
Page 6
1 into some specifics .
2 If they meet the criteria, that ' s
3 the state ' s decision, so I think this should be
4 one we are going to say yes, we ' re going to take
5 your submissions and send them to the state,
6 understanding the risk and penalty for people who
7 don ' t pay the loan back, but on the front this
8 isn ' t something I am comfortable with, actually
9 going into each business ' s financials and trying
10 to make a determination yea or nay, so from my
11 perspective, if they meet the criteria and make
12 it on to the next round, they can get that golden
13 ticket, but I don ' t think this is something I
14 should have an opinion on other than they meet
15 these things, maybe check the boxes and we ' ll
16 see what the state says . So that ' s just my
17 opinion .
18 MAYOR PURCELL: Thank you. Mr . Koch?
19 ALDERMAN KOCH: I also share that same
20 feeling, too . I just want to put it on the
21 record.
22 MAYOR PURCELL: Thank you. Any other
23 Aldermen?
24 (No response . )

1 MAYOR PURCELL: Do any members of the
2 public have anything they want to offer for the
3 public hearing?
4 MS . ORR: You have to put that onto the
5 record.
6 MR. OLSON: We do have to give a
7 description of each business .
8 MS . ORR: There are two issues that must
9 be addressed according to the application: One
10 is if there is anyone to comment, that we take
11 their name and address, so that proves we had a
12 public hearing, if there is anyone in the public;
13 and, number two, each and every application must
14 be cited at the public hearing, and so Bart has
15 synopsized each of the businesses, so that
16 hopefully we will do as we are required and still
17 properly address the concerns of the City Council
18 in that not giving any company more time than
19 another company. So take it, Bart .
20 MAYOR PURCELL: So Bart will do a little
21 presentation. I forgot about that, thank you,
22 but we got the public and the aldermen' s comments
23 in, so now, Bart, this is the Staff portion, the
24 bureaucratic portion, of the meeting.

4 is going into another room to do this
5 presentation.
6 I 'm never going to be a good
7 YouTuber, I can tell you that .
8 MR. OLSON: Okay. Can everybody hear me
9 okay? Thumbs up. All right . And how is the
10 feedback in the Mayor ' s room? Is there any
11 feedback or is it okay?
12 MAYOR PURCELL: You sound fantastic.
13 MR. OLSON: Wonderful, okay. Step one .
14 Sounds good.
15 A couple things . I am going to
16 share my presentation here and then walk through
17 some directions that we have to do for the public
18 hearing --
19 MS . ORR: Correct .
20 MR. OLSON: -- and at some point or
21 another during the public hearing we are
22 supposed to take a roster of everybody that has
23 attended the public hearing, whether in person or

}
6 remotely and we ' re supposed to get your name and
7 address for the sign-in sheet, so we are going to

9 to hit the minimums of the grant requirements for
10 the program.
11 So let me share my screen here .
12 Everybody can see that okay?
13 All right . So this is the
14 downstate small business stabilization program
15 public hearing. Just some details about the
16 program.
17 It was established by the state to
18 provide capital funds to businesses that have
19 been impacted by COVID-19, and in general it
20 makes funds available to businesses in the
21 maximum amount of $25, 000 for 60 days of
22 verifiable working capital .
23 So the eligibility criteria, you
24 have to have been open in Yorkville since
Vitosh Reporting Service 815 . 993 . 2832 cros.vitosh@gmail . com
Page 10
1 January, 2017 , so any business after that is not
2 eligible . Can' t be a franchise . You have to
3 have at least one other employee . You must have
4 less than 50 employees . You have to be a
5 non-essential business, or there are some
6 essential businesses that is -- that can apply.
7 The requirements, if it ' s received,
8 you have to remain open for a minimum of 60 days
9 after funding is awarded, and generally you have
10 to use half of the award funds for payroll
11 expenses and the other half for working capital,
12 and the maximum amount is two month ' s of actual
13 business expenses not to exceed $25, 000 .
14 So as the Mayor read off the roster
15 of businesses -- I won' t say them all again
16 because I have to go through them here in a
17 second -- but the list of 18 should be on your
18 screen there and are available in City Council
19 presentation that was in the City Council packet
20 ahead of time, and the total of the requests for
21 all of those businesses is $436, 000, $436, 644 .
22 All right . So the next 18 slides --
23 here is the first one -- are going to be more
24 wording than I am going to read off, but I do
Vitosh Reporting Service 815 . 993 . 2832 cros .vitosh@gmail . com
Page 11
1 have a prepared part I can get through here and
2 take public comments at the end.
3 So the next 18 slides in this
4 presentation give detailed information about each
5 business, including the amount of funds they are
6 requesting, what they are going to use the funds
7 for, and the impact COVID-19 has had on their
8 business .
9 These detailed slides have been
10 available on the City website and in the City
11 Council packet since Thursday, May 7th. I 'm
12 going to show each one of the slides on the
13 screen, but rather than read them verbatim, I 'm
14 going to summarize the information as follows :
15 The name of each business, the amount of funds
16 that are requested by the business, the list of
17 activities that will be undertaken with grant
18 funding, how the business and community can be
19 benefited through the grant .
20 At the end of my narrative on each
21 of the 18 businesses, the public hearing will be
22 open for public comment and residents may provide
23 comment on any of the 18 businesses .
24 The Mayor will control the order of
Vitosh Reporting Service 815. 993 . 2832 cros .vitosh@gmail . com
Page 12
1 public comment at that time, and each business
2 has been asked to attend this meeting remotely
3 and be prepared to answer questions by the City
4 Council or the public as allowed by the Mayor .
5 In addition to the narrative on each
6 business, and on the slides, the State has asked
7 us to comment about a detailed, prioritized list
8 of community development and housing needs
9 during the public hearing. The following
10 narrative applies to every one of the 18
11 businesses up for public hearing this evening.
12 COVID-19 has decimated the business
13 community and employment numbers in the region
14 and in the state to degrees included in each of
15 the business ' s applications and as narrated in
16 this public hearing.
17 First, the City' s Comprehensive Plan
18 Update discusses the importance of a healthy
19 business community in order to improve quality of
20 life, specifically commercial/retail development .
21 In Section 2 of the Comp Plan,
22 Community Characteristics and Land Use Trends,
23 the Comp Plan states that there is a need for a
24 more consistent, cohesive approach to attracting
Vitosh Reporting Service 815 . 993 . 2832 cros .vitosh@gmail . com
Page 13
1 and retaining retail and commercial services,
2 especially in the downtown, where sustained
3 efforts in supporting and incubating businesses
4 should be the focus of economic development .
5 Second, in the same section it
6 discusses that housing count and household growth
7 is key to attracting new retail development . Any
8 loss of business in the community is going to
9 cause the existing residential base to be
10 underserved, so -- and then we are on to the
11 businesses here .
12 So Advanced Physical Medicine of
13 Yorkville, Limited, is requesting $25, 000 for
14 working capital, including payments on
15 malpractice insurance, software/medical
16 contracts, and maintenance contracts not covered
17 by the PPP loan they have already been awarded.
18 These vendors and insurance companies require
19 monthly payments to be made in full . Advanced
20 has been open since July, 2003 and has 15
21 employees . They hope to maintain their 15
22 employees and to provide care/treatment for local
23 patients who are medically indigent . If funding

3 All of the materials have been
4 available since May 5th on the City' s website,
5 where there is a link in the public notice, and
6 the slide in front of us, and then after
7 approval, since we are suggesting it is
8 contingent on intergovernmental agreement
9 approval with the county that backs up funds, is
10 a participation agreement signed between the City
11 and the applicant prior to submission. There is
12 an example of that in the packet . It ' s not
13 necessary for the City Council to approve it,
14 correct, Mayor, we can negotiate the terms of
I
15 that after approval . That ' s it . Thank you.

8 MR. OLSON: I ' ll defer to Kathy on that
9 as an opinion . That would certainly be an easier
10 way to do this .
