UNITED CITY OF YORKVILLE
PUBLIC WORKS COMMITTEE
Tuesday, June 16, 2020, 6:00pm
Yorkville City Hall, Conference Room
800 Game Farm Road
This meeting was held in accordance with Governor Pritzker's Executive Order 2020-07, extended by
Executive Orders 2020-33 and 2020-39. Due to the current Covid-19 pandemic, the Orders encourage
social distancing by allowing remote attendance at this meeting.
IN ATTENDANCE:
Committee Members
Chairman Joe Plocher , in-person attendance Alderman Chris Funkhouser, remote
Alderman Ken Koch, remote
Absent: Alderman Seaver Tarulis
Other City Officials
City Administrator Bart Olson, in-person attendance
Assistant City Administrator Erin Willrett-remote Engineer Brad Sanderson, EEI-remote
Other Guests: None
The meeting was called to order at 6:00pm by Chairman Joe Plocher.
Citizen Comments: None
Previous Meeting Minutes: May 19, 2020
The minutes were approved as presented.
New Business:
1. PW 2020-35 Lift Station SCADA Upgrades
Mr. Olson said this is a budgeted item for improvement of five lift stations. The improvements will
allow remote monitoring to insure they are working correctly. The total cost is $66,000 and requires a
super majority vote since it is a single source. Alderman Funkhouser asked if any other firm provides
similar information or the SCADA information the city uses. Mr. Olson said it is a highly specialized
system, but he will clarify with Eric Dhuse. Mr. Olson said this system will save money in the long
term and is a high priority. Alderman Koch asked if staff will compile an overall list of priorities due to
the uncertain budget. The committee agreed to move this item forward.
Page 2 of 2
2. PW 2020-36 Raintree Village Unit 1, Lot 4 – Grant of Easement
Mr. Sanderson said that Lennar requested an additional easement since the sidewalk extends slightly
over the existing sidewalk easement. The committee was OK with this request.
3. PW 2020-37 Well No. 8 and 9 Water Treatment Plant Cation Exchange Vessels – Interior
Coating Repairs
Engineer Sanderson reported the City Council recently approved repairs to vessels 1 and 2. Coatings
are now needed on 3 and 4 and repair is recommended at a cost of $28,000. The cost will slightly
exceed the budget, however, the committee recommended moving this forward.
4. PW 2020-38 Risk and Resilience Assessment and Emergency Response Planning – Water
Utilities – Professional Services Engineering Agreement
Mr. Olson gave an overview and said this agreement is mandated by the federal government and the
deadlines of June and December of next year are based on the city's population. EEI will be doing the
study on behalf of the city. It is budgeted and the price is about $60,000. It is an assessment of the
water system and physical and remote risks of operating the water system.
Engineer Sanderson added that the study will assess the water system, consider potential hazards and
develop an emergency response plan. EEI has already completed 3 of these for other cities and there
is no forgiveness on the schedules. Alderman Koch asked if this is a separate agreement cost and Mr.
Olson said it is not charged under the normal contract. According to Mr. Funkhouser this project is 366
hours of work and he wondered if the city could solicit for proposals. Mr. Olson said it is a
supplemental contract and he suggested not bidding this job out since the project should be completed
by someone familiar with Yorkville's water system. It was noted this study is strictly for water, not
wastewater. This moves forward to the City Council.
5. PW 2020-39 NPDES Annual Report
This is a required report and part of the NPDES permit through the IEPA. When approved by the City
Council, the report will be submitted to the IEPA. This moves to the June 23rd City Council agenda.
Old Business: None
Additional Business:
Mr. Olson stated all items would be forwarded to the June 23rd City Council agenda.
There was no further business and the meeting was adjourned at 6:16pm.

Summary
Consideration of a contract with Engineering Enterprises, Inc. for design of a Beaver Street
Booster Pump Station Standby Generator.
Background
Brad Sanderson’s memo (attached) describes the change of plans as it relates to a standby power
generator for the City’s water system on the south end of town. In order to proceed with the new
location of the standby generator at the Beaver Street pump station, the City needs to enter into a
contract with EEI to design the standby generator. A proposal for those design services is attached in
the amount of $47,762. This design cost is budgeted. At the end of the study, the City will know the
price and scope of the standby generator, and will be able to bid out the construction of the standby
generator.
Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of the contract with EEI.

STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Agreement: These Standard Terms and Conditions, together with the Professional Services
Agreement, constitute the entire integrated agreement between the OWNER and Engineering
Enterprises, Inc. (EEI) (hereinafter “Agreement”), and take precedence over any other provisions
between the Parties. These terms may be amended, but only if both parties consent in writing.
Standard of Care: In providing services under this Agreement, the ENGINEER will
endeavor to perform in a matter consistent with that degree of care and skill ordinarily exercised
by members of the same profession currently practicing under same circumstances in the same
locality. ENGINEER makes no other warranties, express or implied, written or oral under this
Agreement or otherwise, in connection with ENGINEER’S service.
Construction Engineering and Inspection: The ENGINEER shall not supervise, direct,
control, or have authority over any contractor work, nor have authority over or be responsible for
the means, methods, techniques sequences, or procedures of construction selected or used by any
contractor, or the safety precautions and programs incident thereto, for security or safety of the
site, nor for any failure of a contractor to comply with laws and regulations applicable to such
contractor’s furnishing and performing of its work.
The ENGINEER neither guarantees the performance of any contractor nor assumes
responsibility for contractor’s failure to furnish and perform the work in accordance with the
contract documents.
The ENGINEER is not responsible for the acts or omissions of any contractor, subcontractor, or
supplies, or any of their agents or employees or any other person at the site or otherwise
furnishing or performing any work.
Shop drawing and submittal review by the ENGINEER shall apply to only the items in the
submissions and only for the purpose of assessing if upon installation or incorporation in the
project work they are generally consistent with the construction documents. OWNER agrees that
the contractor is solely responsible for the submissions and for compliance with the construction
documents. OWNER further agrees that the ENGINEER’S review and action in relation to these
submissions shall not constitute the provision of means, methods, techniques, sequencing or
procedures of construction or extend or safety programs or precautions. The ENGINEER’S
consideration of a component does not constitute acceptance of the assembled items.
The ENGINEER’S site observation during construction shall be at the times agreed upon in the
Project Scope. Through standard, reasonable means the ENGINEER will become generally
familiar with observable completed work. If the ENGINEER observes completed work that is
inconsistent with the construction documents, that information shall be communicated to the
contractor and OWNER for them to address.
Opinion of Probable Construction Costs: ENGINEER’S opinion of probable construction
costs represents ENGINEER’S best and reasonable judgment as a professional engineer.
OWNER acknowledges that ENGINEER has no control over construction costs of contractor’s
methods of determining pricing, or over competitive bidding by contractors, or of market
conditions or changes thereto. ENGINEER cannot and does not guarantee that proposals, bids or
actual construction costs will not vary from ENGINEER’S opinion of probable construction
costs.
Copies of Documents & Electronic Compatibility: Copies of Documents that may be
relied upon by OWNER are limited to the printed copies (also known as hard copies) that are
signed or sealed by the ENGINEER. Files in electronic media format of text, data, graphics, or of
other types that are furnished by ENGINEER to OWNER are only for convenience of OWNER.
Any conclusion or information obtained or derived from such electronic files will be at the user's
sole risk. When transferring documents in electronic media format, ENGINEER makes no
representations as to long term compatibility, usability, or readability of documents resulting
from the use of software application packages, operating systems, or computer hardware
differing from those used by ENGINEER at the beginning of the project.
Changed Conditions: If, during the term of this Agreement, circumstances or conditions
that were not originally contemplated by or known to the ENGINEER are revealed, to the extent
that they affect the scope of services, compensation, schedule, allocation of risks, or other
material terms of this Agreement, the ENGINEER may call for renegotiation of appropriate
portions of this Agreement. The ENGINEER shall notify the OWNER of the changed conditions
necessitating renegotiation, and the ENGINEER and the OWNER shall promptly and in good
faith enter into renegotiation of this Agreement to address the changed conditions. If terms
cannot be agreed to, the parties agree that either party has the absolute right to terminate this
Agreement, in accordance with the termination provision hereof.
Hazardous Conditions: OWNER represents to ENGINEER that to the best of its
knowledge no Hazardous Conditions (environmental or otherwise) exist on the project site. If a
Hazardous Condition is encountered or alleged, ENGINEER shall have the obligation to notify
OWNER and, to the extent of applicable Laws and Regulations, appropriate governmental
officials. It is acknowledged by both parties that ENGINEER's scope of services does not include
any services related to a Hazardous Condition. In the event ENGINEER or any other party
encounters a Hazardous Condition, ENGINEER may, at its option and without liability for
consequential or any other damages, suspend performance of services on the portion of the
project affected thereby until OWNER: (i) retains appropriate specialist consultant(s) or
contractor(s) to identify and, as appropriate, abate, remediate, or remove the Hazardous
Condition; and (ii) warrants that the project site is in full compliance with applicable Laws and
Regulations.
Consequential Damages: Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, and to the
fullest extent permitted by law, neither the OWNER nor the ENGINEER, their respective
officers, directors, partners, employees, contractors, or subcontractors shall be liable to the other
or shall make any claim for any incidental, indirect, or consequential damages arising out of or
connected in any way to the Project or to this Agreement. This mutual waiver of consequential
damages shall include, but is not limited to, loss of use, loss of profit, loss of business, loss of
income, loss of reputation, or any other consequential damages that either party may have
incurred from any cause of action including negligence, strict liability, breach of contract, and
breach of strict or implied warranty. Both the OWNER and the ENGINEER shall require similar
waivers of consequential damages protecting all the entities or persons named herein in all
contracts and subcontracts with others involved in this project.
Termination: This Agreement may be terminated for convenience, without cause, upon
fourteen (14) days written notice of either party. In the event of termination, the ENGINEER
shall prepare a final invoice and be due compensation as set forth in the Professional Services
Agreement for all costs incurred through the date of termination.
Either party may terminate this Agreement for cause upon giving the other party not less than
seven (7) calendar days’ written notice for the following reasons:
(a) Substantial failure by the other party to comply with or perform in accordance
with the terms of the Agreement and through no fault of the terminating party;
(b) Assignment of the Agreement or transfer of the project without the prior written
consent of the other party;
(c) Suspension of the project or the ENGINEER’S services by the OWNER for a
period of greater than ninety (90) calendar days, consecutive or in the aggregate.
(d) Material changes in the conditions under which this Agreement was entered into,
the scope of services or the nature of the project, and the failure of the parties to
reach agreement on the compensation and schedule adjustments necessitated by
such changes.
Payment of Invoices: Invoices are due and payable within 30 days of receipt unless
otherwise agreed to in writing.
Third Party Beneficiaries: Nothing contained in this Agreement shall create a contractual
relationship with or a cause of action in favor of a third party against either the OWNER or the
ENGINEER. The ENGINEER’S services under this Agreement are being performed solely and
exclusively for the OWNER’S benefit, and no other party or entity shall have any claim against
the ENGINEER because of this Agreement or the performance or nonperformance of services
hereunder. The OWNER and ENGINEER agree to require a similar provision in all contracts
with contractors, subcontractors, vendors and other entities involved in this Project to carry out
the intent of this provision.
Force Majeure: Each Party shall be excused from the performance of its obligations under
this Agreement to the extent that such performance is prevented by force majeure (defined
below) and the nonperforming party promptly provides notice of such prevention to the other
party. Such excuse shall be continued so long as the condition constituting force majeure
continues. The party affected by such force majeure also shall notify the other party of the
anticipated duration of such force majeure, any actions being taken to avoid or minimize its
effect after such occurrence, and shall take reasonable efforts to remove the condition
constituting such force majeure. For purposes of this Agreement, “force majeure” shall include
conditions beyond the control of the parties, including an act of God, acts of terrorism, voluntary
or involuntary compliance with any regulation, law or order of any government, war, acts of war
(whether war be declared or not), labor strike or lock-out, civil commotion, epidemic, failure or
default of public utilities or common carriers, destruction of production facilities or materials by
fire, earthquake, storm or like catastrophe. The payment of invoices due and owing hereunder
shall in no event be delayed by the payer because of a force majeure affecting the payer.
Additional Terms or Modification: All prior understandings and agreements between
the parties are merged into this Agreement, and this Agreement may not be modified orally or in
any manner other than by an Agreement in writing signed by both parties. In the event that any
provisions of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining
provisions shall be valid and binding on the parties.
Assignment: Neither party to this Agreement shall transfer or assign any rights or duties under
or interest in this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party. Subcontracting
normally contemplated by the ENGINEER shall not be considered an assignment for purposes of
this Agreement.
Waiver: A party’s waiver of, or the failure or delay in enforcing any provision of this
Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of the provision, nor shall it affect the enforceability of
that provision or of the remainder of this Agreement.
Attorney’s Fees: In the event of any action or proceeding brought by either party against the

Background:
The United City of Yorkville’s water distribution system is segmented into four distinct pressure zones,
based upon ground elevations related optimal water pressures for the customers. The attached Exhibits 2-
1 and 2-5 from the Water Works System Master Plan identify the areas and pressures (note there are no
current customers in a 5th Pressure Zone – Southeast). Between the South Central and South Pressure
Zones, there is only one Well (No. 7) and Water Treatment Plant (WTP). Therefore, if these facilities are
inoperable, water must be transferred to the customers in the South Central and South Pressure Zones
from the North and North Central Pressure Zones. In 2019, to improve reliability in the South Central
and South Pressure Zones, the City contracted with EEI to design a standby generator for Well No. 7 and
the associated Water Treatment Plant. In a power outage event, a standby generator would allow for
continued water production from these facilities. However, during design and analysis of this project, it
was determined that significant modifications would be required to the existing electrical gear at this
facility, which increased the estimated cost of construction to approximately $1M. Therefore, City staff
evaluated alternatives to improve water distribution reliability in the South Central and South Pressure
Zones.
If Well No. 7 and associated WTP are inoperable, the Beaver St. (South Central) Booster Pump Station
(BPS) can transfer water from the North Central to South Central zone, and the Raintree (South) Booster
Pump Station can transfer water from the South Central to South zone. The Raintree BPS has an existing
standby generator, but the Beaver St. BPS does not have a generator. Therefore, during a power outage,
the Beaver St. BPS is not operable, and water cannot be transferred from the north to south zones. City
staff has identified that adding a standby generator at the Beaver St. BPS is a cost-effective means of
improving water distribution reliability in the South Central and South Pressure Zones. An added benefit
is that the proposed generator at Beaver St. BPS would allow operation during the “worst-case scenario”,
which is a power outage in conjunction with planned/unplanned maintenance to Well No. 7 (offline).
Electrical upgrades will be required at the Beaver St. BPS to bring the facilities up to current Code and
allow for operation of the generator. A photo of the existing electrical equipment at the site is attached
for reference. The estimated cost for the Beaver St. BPS modifications is approximately $420K (includes
engineering).
Question Presented:
Should the City move forward with the planned improvements at the Beaver Street Booster Pump Station.
Action Required:
Consideration of approval.

Discussion of Wyland National Mayors Challenge for Conservation
Public Works Committee – July 21, 2020
N/A
Approval
Majority
Consideration of Support for the Wyland National Mayors Challenge for
Conservation
Erin Willrett Administration
Name Department
Summary
Continue participation in a national program to challenge the residents to conserve water, energy
and other natural resources, in alignment with City Council Goal #5 – Water Planning.
Background
Once again, the Wyland Foundation, in partnership with the National League of Cities and the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, invited the United City of Yorkville to participate in the 9th
annual National Mayor’s Challenge for Water Conservation. The commitment from the City to
participate is as simple as drafting the statement of support below. There is no cost to the City. There
were several items that were sent out to market this program in 2018 and 2019. Yorkville placed 5th in
2018 and in 2019, Yorkville placed 13th in the 5,000-29,999 population category nation-wide!
Residents who are interested in conservation efforts and who would like to accept the
challenge can go online (www.mywaterpledge.com) and make a pledge to conserve water, energy, and
other natural resources over the next year by selecting from different pledge options. Some options are
as easy as wasting less food and recycling. When the resident enters their location, the drop-down menu
for pledges will contain our draft statement about water conservation. Our draft statement will read as:
“A sustainable water source for the City’s future water supply is a main focus for our community and its
residents. Yorkville currently obtains its water from the deep sandstone aquifer, which is being steadily
drawn down as it is being pumped beyond its long-term sustainable yield due to increasing water
demands and growth of the region. The City is committed to building strong, collaborative relationships
regionally for sustainable water use. We hope to partner with our neighboring communities and our
actual neighbors to promote water conservation efforts in the home. By taking the water pledge, you
can help extend the capacity of the City’s water supply.”
When a resident goes online to accept the challenge, they will search for “Yorkville, IL”, the
website will then walk the resident through the process to pledge to make thoughtful conservation
choices at home. There are several check boxes that the residents can choose from depending on the
changes they are pledging to make. At the end of the “choices” portion of the pledge, an email address
is required and the option for the resident to be entered into the prize drawing is made as a check box.
After the resident enters their email address the pledge process is complete. Additionally, the website
has several informational items for the resident to read through and learn about. City standings in the
challenge are on the website and the residents can check back and see how their “choices” positively
affect the community. This program is designed to get residents to think about how their choices impact
the natural environment and if changes are made, no matter how small, benefits add up quickly. There
is no further commitment and no additional information that is needed from the residents other than
those listed above.
Memorandum
To: Public Works Committee
From: Erin Willrett, Assistant City Administrator
CC: Bart Olson, City Administrator
Date: July 21, 2020
Subject: Wyland National Mayors Challenge for Conservation
The City will also be posting several items on social media and on our website to promote this
challenge. The City’s main goal by promoting this program is to help residents be aware of the
importance of the natural resources that are used on a daily basis and the pressing need to protect those
precious resources.
Recommendation
While not a requirement to participate in the program, staff recommends an acknowledgment by
the City Council in the attached Resolution for support of the statement above and participation in
marketing the program. This initiative aligns with the City Council Goal #5 – Water Planning.

Rebuild Illinois Grants Program Applications
Public Works Committee – July 21, 2020
Majority
Approval
Bart Olson Administration
Name Department
Summary
Review the status of the State of Illinois’ Regional Economic Development Grant and Rebuild
Illinois Shovel Ready Sites Grant applications.
Background
This item was last discussed by the City Council at the June 9th City Council meeting, when the
City Council gave staff direction to proceed with both the Shovel Ready Sites – East Alley Project and
the Regional Economic Development – Eldamain Infrastructure Project, despite both projects scoring
low on an initial staff analysis. Since that meeting, staff has been preparing grant application materials.
We expect the East Alley Project application to proceed forward as expected, with a public
notice in the newspaper this weekend for a public hearing to be conducted at the July 28th City Council
meeting. For this project, we anticipate that watermain replacement, sanitary sewer rehab, and burying
of electric lines in the area will cost just shy of $1,000,000. Since this project is less than $2,000,000,
the grant scoring system does not require a local match by the City, nor does it devalue our application.
So, we propose to ask for 100% project funding for the East Alley Project. Because we are not required
to provide a local match, no formal grant resolution is required by the state, nor the City’s own
procurement policies. However, we propose to include a simple motion to authorize the submittal of
this grant application at the July 28th City Council meeting.
The Eldamain Infrastructure Project application will require a different City Council process, and
some additional discussion about local funding commitments. We anticipate that the cost estimate to
bring water and sewer utilities out to this corridor will be just shy of $4,500,000. Because the grant
award maximum is $2,000,000, the City would have to fund the gap in order to complete the project.
While this cost could be borne by the water and sewer funds, it would still require a significant
speculative investment by the City Council. Further, the grant application process actually requires a
statement of local funding commitment as part of the application. We think that the statement can be as
simple as “we promise to fund the ~$2,500,000 local match” with no back-end penalty should we
reverse that decision at a later date, but we are trying to verify that before we proceed. Also, the grant
requirements include a resolution of intent to bond, which means the state is going to require us to tell
them that we will issue a bond for the local match as part of the application. It is unclear at this time,
whether that requirement prohibits us from selling a bond later if we fail to include that resolution as
part of the application (i.e. we decide now to not use a bond and then change our mind later), or whether
it is simply a scoring deduction. In either case on the bond resolution, and at minimum, the public
notice for the public hearing on this project must state within the public notice that the City is proposing
to fund the project with a local match and must state the dollar value of the local match; which means
the City Council will need to discuss the merits of the local match before even finalizing the public
notice. Staff is prepared to lead this discussion at the Public Works Committee meeting, but we
anticipate that the full Council will need to discuss this issue at the 7/28 CC meeting. Because of
