PRESENTATIONS
Advanced Disposal Recycling Presentation
Bob Pfister,the municipal marketing manager for Advanced Disposal, gave a brief presentation on
recycling. He went over items that are acceptable to recycle such as cardboard,paper, aluminum cans,
metal containers,plastic bottles,jars,jugs and containers. He also went over common items that cannot
be recycled such as plastic shopping bags, Styrofoam, shredded paper,baby diapers,hypodermic needles,
batteries,pizza boxes, donut boxes, and other containers that are contaminated with food. He also
mentioned that with the current COVID-19 crisis,disposable masks and gloves cannot be recycled and
should be disposed of with the regular garbage.
After the presentation, Mr.Pfister was asked if residents that chose to have a smaller trash receptable
could have the large recycling receptable or do both containers have to be the smaller size in order to
qualify for a fee reduction. Mr. Pfister said that he would check into that question. Mr. Pfister was also
asked what the contamination rate of the city's recycling was. He responded that Yorkville has a 20%
recycling contamination rate. This means that 20%of the items that are placed in recycling containers
cannot be recycled and must be sorted through and disposed of at the processing facility. Mayor Purcell
asked if Advanced Disposal could send out a direct mailer on recycling to Yorkville residents. He
mentioned that he felt it would be very helpful for the residents.

Ordinance Regarding City Council Procedures—First Reading
(ADM 2020-39)
^ Alderman Funkhouser said this ordinance came out of the Administration Committee for discussion by
the City Council. Mayor Purcell clarified that Alderman Funkhouser was the author of the proposed
changes. Alderman Funkhouser said that most of the ordinance involves procedures for what the council
members have experienced over the years.
Administrator Olson went over a couple of components that were included within the proposed ordinance
regarding how items are added to agendas and how they relate to existing state law. He explained that
special City Council meetings can be called by either the Mayor or by any three Aldermen. When a
special City Council meeting is called,the agenda is set by the Mayor or by the three Aldermen calling
the special meeting. The underlying theory to this, infers that the Mayor can add any item to an agenda as
well as any three aldermen can also add any item to an agenda. One of the proposed changes would limit
the authority of the Mayor to add items to the agenda unless he had concurrence from the respective
committee chairman on that agenda item. It would also change the number of aldermen that can add
anything to an agenda.
Administrator Olson said that the city attorney had also raised some additional concerns regarding control
of the meeting and recognizing people who wish to speak as she felt these changes are potentially in
opposition to the underlying premise that the Mayor presides over the City Council meetings.
Attorney Orr said the proposed ordinance also suggests that nothing would come to the City Council
without an affirmative vote of three members of a committee. This would give control over any matter to
less than a simple majority of the City Council. She thinks this provision may be subject to a legal
question. Attorney Orr was asked if instead of it being worded that items coming out of committee would
need three affirmative votes,could the ordinance instead be reworded to state that committees should
^ make either a positive recommendation, a negative recommendation, or a first reading for the City
Council agenda. Attorney Orr gave the example of the Planning and Zoning Commission(PZC). The
PZC is required to take a vote on all items; however,even items that are voted down by the PZC do not
end there, as the items still move forward to the City Council to make a final determination. She said that
if the intent is to make the committee's wishes known,then yes, it might be possible that every item on an
agenda of a committee must be voted up or down. It would result in items moving forward to the City
Council agenda with the position of the committee being known for each item.
Alderman Funkhouser mentioned that after this discussion,he would be okay with the removal of the
provision that the Mayor could only add items to the City Council agenda with the concurrence of the
committee chairman.
The Minutes of the Regular Meeting of the City Council—July 28,2020—Page 5 of 6
Mayor Purcell mentioned that he does not mind the suggested change of having one member from each
ward on each committee if that is what the council would like to see. He also mentioned that he
understands the concept of listing suggested items for each committee; however,he doesn't like the idea
of limiting items only to specific committees. He feels that there may be situations in which different
committees would like to discuss the same item.
Attorney Orr also commented about the proposed change to allow citizen comments on any matter at the
beginning of the meeting instead of being limited to comments about agenda items only with all non-
agenda comments waiting until the end of the meeting. She said the current method of two citizen
comment sections seems to be working well for the City Council to get its business conducted while still
allowing the public to comment. She said in years past,that was not always the case and the business of
the council was delayed due to public comment being made that was not relevant to the business being
considered at the meeting. She also mentioned that Yorkville's practice of using two separate comment
sections(beginning of the meeting for agenda items and end of meeting for any other comment)has now
been widely adopted by many other municipalities.
Mayor Purcell said this item will return to the City Council for further discussion. He said if any of the
council members had any further thoughts on this ordinance,they should email proposed changes to
Administrator Olson.

�-. 4'Quarter Budget Review—Fiscal Year 2020
(ADM 2020-49)
Alderman Funkhouser stated that this item was informational, and he asked Director Fredrickson if he
would give an overview of the budget report. Director Fredrickson said that for FY 2020, most of the
city's revenue streams have been fairly resilient so far despite the pandemic. Sales tax revenues are
projected to end around 3.2 million which is a 5% increase year over year. Non-home rule sales tax is
projected to end around 2.4 million and local use taxes are projected to increase 15%for FY 2020.
Income tax is projected to decrease by 5%resulting in approximately 1.87 million dollars. The general
fund is expected to have a total revenue of approximately 16.6 million with total expenditures of 15.9
million resulting in an estimated surplus of$630,000. He said the city's fund balance should end around
7.5 million; however,when you include the TIF districts which have a negative fund balance of
approximately 2.5 million,the resulting fund balance is around 5 million dollars or 32% of fund balance.

COMMUNITY& LIAISON REPORT
Aurora Area Convention & Visitors Bureau (AACVB)
Alderman Funkhouser reported that at the start of the pandemic,the Aurora Area Convention&Visitors
Bureau(AACVB)took steps to reduce their budget expenses since they anticipated there would be some
reductions in the grant funds they receive from the Local Tourism and Convention Bureau(LTCB). They
planned on a 40%reduction in funding which would equate to a funding loss of approximately$180,000.
The actual funding cut ended up being 45%;however,the state did change the requirements for the
allocation of the funding which allowed the money to be using for staffing and other uses instead of just
marketing. Even though funding was reduced to a larger amount than anticipated,the change in the way
the funding can be allocated allowed the AACVB more flexibility is using their grant funding resulting in
a fairly stable position for the cash reserves of the organization.

1 (WHEREUPON, the following
2 proceedings were had in
3 public hearing: )
4 MAYOR PURCELL: Now I will open the
5 public hearing for Rebuild Illinois, a Shovel
6 Ready Site Grant Program, the East Alley Utility
7 Work, and, Bart, did you say you have a couple of
8 slide presentations on this?
9 MR. OLSON: Erin is commenting.
10 MAYOR PURCELL: I 'm sorry, Erin, because
11 I have you on my notes that you weren ' t supposed
12 to talk about this . I slighted Erin. Erin, I
13 apologize . Please take over .
14 MS . WILLRETT : No problem. So this
15 evening there is no PowerPoint presentation, but
16 we do need to cover just a few items regarding
17 the project to meet the criteria of the grant
18 program.
19 So the amount of funds available for
20 the project, the City is seeking a full grant for
21 this project with no local funds being used, so
22 we are looking for $895, 000, $895, 350, for this
23 project .
24 The project consists of water main
Vitosh Reporting Service 815 . 993 . 2832 cros .vitosh@gmail .com
Page 5
1 replacement, sanitary rehabilitation and
2 electrical lines that will be buried all in the
3 200 block of the alley east of Illinois Route 47
4 in the City of Yorkville .
5 No additional project activities
6 will be undertaken with additional project
7 funding, so what I just read off, the water
8 mains, sanitary rehabilitation, and electrical
9 lines, would be the only work undertaken with
10 this grant money.
11 No displacement of residents will
12 take place during the construction of this
13 project .
14 This project aligns with the
15 goals of the City of Yorkville ' s Comprehensive
16 Plan. This Comprehensive Plan was the winner of
17 the 2017 Illinois American Planning Association
18 Daniel Burnham Plan award.
19 The plan encourages the
20 revitalization of the City' s downtown through the
21 enhancement of utility upgrades to spur infill
22 development and economic investment, and that is
23 certainly what we hope will occur with these
24 upgrades to this infrastructure in this east

1 alley.
2 The East Alley Project forwards the
3 near term and long-term interventions proposed in
4 the Streetscape Master Plan for the areas between
5 Hydraulic Street, Van Emmon Street and Bridge
6 Street. This includes rear building facade
7 improvement, creation of an outdoor
8 dining/seating area, burying of overhead
9 utilities, and restriping of the public parking
10 lot for the businesses that abut the East Alley
11 Project area.
12 Adjacent development to the project
13 area includes potential commercial and mixed-use
14 residential development .
15 The East Alley Project area is
16 located in the City' s downtown, which has its
17 historic commercial core surrounded by a
18 diversity of housing types, including
19 single-family, multi-family and townhomes within
20 a traditional neighborhood layout .
21 The majority of the costs of this
22 project are construction, with minimal costs
23 going towards design engineering and construction
24 management and oversight .

1 This project is located within the
2 City' s Downtown TIF District, and various
3 properties adjacent or nearby this project are
4 eligible for TIF funding through approved
5 redevelopment plans .
6 This project lays the foundation for
7 long-term growth in Yorkville ' s downtown
8 redevelopment by providing needed utility
9 infrastructure upgrades in an area experiencing
10 regional investment, such as roadway
11 improvements .
12 Also, nearby is the Marge Cline
13 Whitewater Course, which is a State of Illinois
14 recreational facility which offers rafting,
15 canoeing, kayaking, chutes, and tube water
16 sporting activities .
17 This, along with City parks and
18 downtown restaurants, brings a host of residents
19 and tourists to the downtown area.
20 The impact on community finances is
21 restricted because we are requesting the full
22 project amount to be funded by the grant dollars
23 through the DCEO.
24 If anybody has any further questions
