Reviewed By: Legal Finance Engineer City Administrator Community Development Purchasing Police Public Works Parks and Recreation Agenda Item Number Public Hearing #1 Tracking Number PUBLIC HEARING Corneils Road Solar – Solar Farm (Annexation) City Council – April 23, 2024 Majority Approval Requested annexation & agreement approval for a proposed alternative energy system or “solar farm”. Krysti Barksdale – Noble, AICP Community Development Name Department SUMMARY: The petitioner, Daniel Kramer on behalf of Nexamp dba Corneils Road Solar, LLC, contract leasee, is requesting annexation, rezoning, and special use permit approval to construct a 5-megawatt (MW) alternating current (AC) freestanding community solar farm. As part of the request, the petitioner is seeking to annex three (3) unincorporated agricultural parcels (#02-08-300-008, 02-08-300-011, and 02-08-300- 012). The owners of the real property are Gary and Betty Bennett. The proposed 31-acre solar farm will be situated on approximately 94 acres of existing farmland located in unincorporated Kendall County immediately north of Corneils Road, east of Beecher Road and west of IL Route 47 (N. Bridge Street). The property also consists of an existing farm homestead with accessory buildings. The required rezoning and special use for the solar farm development has been reviewed by the Planning and Zoning Commission at the April 10, 2024 meeting. This memorandum covers the project description and the area proposed for annexation. Memorandum To: City Council From: Krysti Barksdale-Noble, Community Development Director CC: Bart Olson, City Administrator Sara Mendez, Planner I Date: April 12, 2024 Subject: Corneils Road Solar, LLC/Nexamp, Inc. (Bennett) PUBLIC HEARING Proposed Annexation Agreement Request ANNEXATION REQUEST: As mentioned, the applicant seeks annexation of three (3) unincorporated parcels, #02-08-300-008, 02-08-300-011, and 02-08-300-012, totaling approximately 94-acres for the purpose of constructing and operating a community solar farm on approximately 31 acres of the annexed area. Contiguity of the subject parcels and Yorkville’s current corporate boundary is established immediately south of Corneils Road (Westbury South Village) and abutting to the east is the Westbury East Village. Both developments are unimproved but are entitled for mixed-use planned unit developments. Annexation is contingent upon City Council approval of a requested rezoning to A-1 Agricultural District and special use authorization for the solar farm. A draft annexation agreement and the proposed Plat of Annexation has been provided for review and comment. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The proposed commercial solar farm will consist of approximately 11,592 modules installed over ~31-acres of the existing farmland and enclosed within a fenced area, per the project narrative. The system will include two (2) central inverters and 1-2 transformers, per the Decommissioning Plan. Additionally, the inverters and transformers will be located within the fence and mounted on a concrete pad. The petitioner will enter a twenty (20) year lease with the property owner to operate the proposed community solar farm. The lease also has an option to extend the lease term for one (1) ten (10) year term and then for one or both of two (2) additional five (5) year terms. In addition to meeting the required minimum setbacks, the closest array/module of the proposed solar farm will be ~1,336 feet from the property line of the nearest unincorporated residence located northwest on E. Beecher Road. Further, the overall solar farm project area is approximately 2,000 feet from the nearest residentially platted Yorkville property in the Caledonia subdivision located to the south. RECENT UDO TEXT AMENDMENT The City Council recently approved an amendment to the Unified Development Ordinance at their March 26, 2024 meeting establishing acceptable locations of solar farm developments within Yorkville which are as follows: (1) a minimum 1,000-foot buffer between the nearest solar array and a major roadway and (2) a minimum 1,000-foot buffer between the nearest solar array and the Fox River. The proposed location of the Corneils Road Solar Farm meets the above approved criteria. THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN The 2016 Comprehensive Plan designates the future land use for this property as Estate/Conservation Residential (ERC). The Estate/Conservation Residential (ERC) designation is generally intended for future neighborhood developments that promotes flexibility in residential design, accommodates low density detached single family housing, and is sensitive to environmental and scenic features of the area and utilized this land use designation as a “holding” classification for those areas, particularly on the outskirts or along the perimeter of the City’s corporate boundaries that lacked the public infrastructure to support the development of the land within the 10-year timeline of the plan. While the proposed A-1 Agricultural District is not dissimilar to the large lot/low density residential envisioned for the ERC future land use designation, an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan would be required if the rezoning is approved. REQUEST\COMMENTS\CONCERNS: The petitioner is requesting a straightforward annexation into the City of Yorkville for the three (3) parcels meaning they aren’t seeking relief or variance from the request A-1 Agricultural District. Further, the annexation is contingent upon approval of the requested rezoning and special use authorization for the solar farm. However, there may be additional requirements and conditions for the solar farm which will be tied to the special use, if authorized. Both the rezoning and special use requests were heard at a public hearing before the Planning and Zoning Commission on April 10th and a resident provided written feedback which has been attached to this memo for your consideration.

It contains a description of the present site conditions, the present resources, and the potential impacts that the proposed change may have on the site and its resources. The natural resource information was gathered from standardized data, on-site investigations and information furnished by the petitioner. This report must be read in its entirety so that the relationship between the natural resource factors and the proposed land use change can be fully understood. Due to the limitations of scale encountered with the various resource maps, the property boundaries depicted in the various exhibits in this report provide a generalized representation of the property location and may not precisely reflect the legal description of the PIQ (Parcel in Question). This report, when used properly, will provide the basis for proper land use change decisions and development while protecting the natural resource base of the county. It should not be used in place of detailed environmental and/or engineering studies that are warranted under most circumstances, but in conjunction with those studies. The conclusions of this report in no way indicate that a certain land use is not possible, but it should alert the reader to possible problems that may occur if the capabilities of the land are ignored. Any questions on the technical data supplied in this report or if anyone feels that they would like to see more additional specific information to make the report more effective, please contact:

Conservation Service (USDA-NRCS) 2008 Kendall County Soil Survey, this project area contains the soil types shown in Figure 1 and Table 1. Please note this does not replace the need for or results of onsite soil testing. If completed, please refer to onsite soil test results for planning/engineering purposes. Figure 1: Soil Map Table 1: Soils Information Soil Type Soil Name Drainage Class Hydrologic Group Hydric Designation Farmland Designation Acres % Area 67A Harpster silty clay loam, 0-2% slopes Poorly Drained B/D Hydric Prime Farmland if Drained 0.6 1.4% 149A Brenton silt loam, 0-2% slopes Somewhat Poorly Drained B/D Non-Hydric with Hydric Inclusions Prime Farmland 4.3 10.1% 152A Drummer silty clay loam, 0-2% slopes Poorly Drained B/D Hydric Prime Farmland if Drained 23.4 54.5% 330A Peotone silty clay loam, 0-2% slopes Very Poorly Drained C/D Hydric Prime Farmland if Drained 14.4 33.5% 791B Rush silt loam, 2-4% slopes Well Drained B Non-Hydric Prime Farmland 0.2 0.5% NRI 2401 January 2024 3 Hydrologic Soil Groups – Soils have been classified into four (A, B, C, D) hydrologic groups based on runoff characteristics due to rainfall. If a soil is assigned to a dual hydrologic group (A/D, B/D or C/D), the first letter is for drained areas and the second letter is for undrained areas. x Hydrologic group A: Soils have a high infiltration rate (low runoff potential) when thoroughly wet. These consist mainly of deep, well drained to excessively drained sands or gravelly sands. These soils have a high rate of water transmission. x Hydrologic group B: Soils have a moderate infiltration rate when thoroughly wet, consist chiefly of moderately deep to deep, moderately well drained to well drained soils that have a moderately fine to moderately coarse texture. These soils have a moderate rate of water transmission. x Hydrologic group C: Soils having a slow infiltration rate when thoroughly wet. These consist chiefly of soils having a layer that impedes the downward movement of water or soils of moderately fine texture or fine texture. These soils have a slow rate of water transmission. x Hydrologic group D: Soils having a very slow infiltration rate (high runoff potential) when thoroughly wet. These consist chiefly of clays that have a high shrink-swell potential, soils that have a high water table, have a claypan or clay layer at or near the surface, and soils that are shallow over nearly impervious material. These soils have a very slow rate of water transmission. Hydric Soils – A hydric soil is one that formed under conditions of saturation, flooding, or ponding long enough during the growing season to develop anaerobic conditions in the upper part of the soil profile that supports the growth or regeneration of hydrophytic vegetation. Soils with hydric inclusions have map units dominantly made up of non-hydric soils that may have inclusions of hydric soils in the lower positions on the landscape. Of the soils found onsite, three are classified as hydric soil (67A Harpster silty clay loam, 152A Drummer silty clay loam, and 330A Peotone silty clay loam), one is classified as non-hydric soil (791B Rush silt loam), and one is classified as non-hydric soil with hydric inclusions likely (149A Brenton silt loam). Prime Farmland – Prime farmland is land that has the best combination of physical and chemical characteristics for agricultural production. Prime farmland soils are an important resource to Kendall County and some of the most productive soils in the United States occur locally. Of the soils found onsite, two are designated as prime farmland (149A Brenton silt loam and 791B Rush silt loam) and three are designated as prime farmland if drained (67A Harpster silty clay loam, 152A Drummer silty clay loam, and 330A Peotone silty clay loam). Soil Limitations – The USDA-NRCS Web Soil Survey rates the limitations of soils for dwellings, small commercial buildings, solar arrays, shallow excavations, lawns/landscaping, local roads and streets, etc. Soils have different properties which influence the development of building sites. The USDA-NRCS classifies soils as Not Limited, Somewhat Limited, and Very Limited. Soils that are Not Limited indicates that the soil has properties that are favorable for the specified use. They will perform well and will have low maintenance. Soils that are Somewhat Limited are moderately favorable, and their limitations can be overcome through special planning, design, or installation. Soils that are Very Limited have features that are unfavorable for the specified use, and their limitations cannot easily be overcome.

The LESA system was developed by the United States Department of Agriculture-Natural Resources Conservation Service (USDA-NRCS) and takes into consideration local conditions such as physical characteristics of the land, compatibility of surrounding land-uses, and urban growth factors. The LESA system is a two-step procedure that includes: x Land Evaluation (LE): The soils of a given area are rated and placed in groups ranging from the best to worst suited for a stated agriculture use, cropland, or forestland. The best group is assigned a value of 100 and all other groups are assigned lower values. The Land Evaluation is based on data from the Kendall County Soil Survey. The Kendall County Soil and Water Conservation District is responsible for this portion of the LESA system. The Land Evaluation score for this site is 95, indicating that the soils are well suited for agricultural uses. x Site Assessment (SA): The site is numerically evaluated according to important factors that contribute to the quality of the site. Each factor selected is assigned values in accordance with the local needs and objectives. The Site Assessment value is based on a 200-point scale and accounts for 2/3 of the total score. The Kendall County LESA Committee is responsible for this portion of the LESA system. Please Note: A land evaluation (LE) score will be compiled for every project parcel. However, when a parcel is located within municipal planning boundaries, a site assessment 0 20 40 60 80 100 Solar Arrays, Soil- Penetrating Anchor Systems Solar Arrays, Ballast Anchor Systems Shallow Excavations Lawns/Landscaping % OF SOIL TYPE OF IMPROVEMENT SOIL LIMITATIONS Not Limited Somewhat Limited Very Limited NRI 2401 January 2024 5 (SA) score is not compiled as the scoring factors are not applicable. As a result, only the LE score is available, and a full LESA score is unavailable for the parcel. The Site Assessment score for this site is not applicable. WETLANDS The U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service’s National Wetlands Inventory map indicates the presence of wetland(s)/waters on the proposed project site. To determine if a wetland is present, a wetland delineation specialist, who is recognized by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, should determine the exact boundaries and value of the wetlands. A Wetland Determination/Delineation Report dated September 1, 2023, was prepared by Atwell, LLC. The results of their review indicated the presence of two watercourses on the site (Rob Roy Creek and an unnamed tributary of Rob Roy Creek). FLOODPLAIN The Federal Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA) Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) for Kendall County, Community Panel No. 17093C0030G (effective date February 4, 2009) was reviewed to determine the presence of floodplain and floodway areas within the project site. According to the map, the site does not likely contain areas of regulated floodplain or floodway. SEDIMENT AND EROSION CONTROL Development on this site should include an erosion and sediment control plan in accordance with local, state, and federal regulations. Soil erosion on construction sites is a resource concern as suspended sediment from areas undergoing development is a primary nonpoint source of water pollution. Please consult the Illinois Urban Manual (https://illinoisurbanmanual.org/) for appropriate best management practices. STORMWATER POLLUTION A National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit (Permit No. ILR10) from the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA) is required for stormwater discharges from construction sites that will disturb 1 or more acres of land. Conditions of the NPDES ILR10 permit require the development and implementation of a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) to reduce stormwater pollutants on the construction site before they can cause environmental issues. ECOLOGICAL CONSIDERATIONS Developers of solar project sites are encouraged to plant native groundcover. Native shrubs, grasses, and wildflowers offer benefits such as improved erosion control, pesticide avoidance, stormwater infiltration, wildlife habitat, and reduced overall maintenance. Naturalized areas, once established, are more drought tolerant, require little to no fertilization, and only need to be mowed once or twice a year. Native fruiting and flowering plants also provide a food source and habitat for native pollinators which offer the ecological service of pollinating our agricultural crops. The District recognizes two potential sources of water pollution from solar farms including cracked panels and oil leaks or spills from transformers. Cracked panels can leach toxic materials if many broken panels are exposed to precipitation over a long period of time. To prevent this issue, solar farm operators should regularly inspect for cracked panels. Cracked or broken panels must be immediately stored under protective cover and should be periodically transported offsite for recycling or proper offsite storage. NRI 2401 January 2024 6 Electrical transformers are used to increase output voltage from solar farms to the electrical grid. These transformers contain oil, which can leak or spill resulting in environmental damage. To reduce environmental damage, biodegradable oil can be used in the transformers. Larger transformers typically use mineral-based oil unless biodegradable oil is specifically requested. Leaks and spills of biodegradable oil must still be prevented, but the risk for groundwater contamination would be reduced and clean-up efforts simplified in the event of a release. Secondary containment systems such as trays, membranes, or vaults can also be used in the event of a leak or spill. Containment systems must be designed to manage stormwater so adequate containment volume is maintained. This would be the responsibility of the solar developer.

These parcels contain approximately 41.0 acres and are located north of Corneils Road, east of Beecher Road, south of Galena Road, and west of Illinois Route 47. NRI 2401 January 2024 9 Figure 4: 2021 Aerial Map with NRI Project Boundary NRI 2401 January 2024 10 ARCHAEOLOGIC/CULTURAL RESOURCES INFORMATION Simply stated, cultural resources are all the past activities and accomplishments of people. They include the following: buildings; objects made or used by people; locations; and less tangible resources, such as stories, dance forms, and holiday traditions. The Soil and Water Conservation District most often encounters cultural resources as historical properties. These may be prehistoric or historical sites, buildings, structures, features, or objects. The most common type of historical property that the Soil and Water Conservation District may encounter is non-structural archaeological sites. These sites often extend below the soil surface and must be protected against disruption by development or other earth moving activity if possible. Cultural resources are non- renewable because there is no way to “grow” a site to replace a disrupted site. Landowners with historical properties on their land have ownership of that historical property. However, the State of Illinois owns all the following: human remains, grave markers, burial mounds, and artifacts associated with graves and human remains. Non-grave artifacts from archaeological sites and historical buildings are the property of the landowner. The landowner may choose to disturb a historical property but may not receive federal or state assistance to do so. If an earth moving activity disturbs human remains, the landowner must contact the county coroner within 48 hours. The Illinois State Historic Preservation Office has not been notified of the proposed land use change by the Kendall County SWCD. The applicant may need to contact them according to current Illinois law. NRI 2401 January 2024 11 ECOLOGICALLY SENSITIVE AREAS WHAT IS BIOLOGICAL DIVERSITY AND WHY SHOULD IT BE CONSERVED?1 Biological diversity, or biodiversity, is the range of life on our planet. A more thorough definition is presented by botanist Peter H. Raven: “At the simplest level, biodiversity is the sum total of all the plants, animals, fungi and microorganisms in the world, or in a particular area; all of their individual variation; and all of the interactions between them. It is the set of living organisms that make up the fabric of the planet Earth and allow it to function as it does, by capturing energy from the sun and using it to drive all of life’s processes; by forming communities of organisms that have, through the several billion years of life’s history on Earth, altered the nature of the atmosphere, the soil and the water of our Planet; and by making possible the sustainability of our planet through their life activities now” (Raven 1994). It is not known how many species occur on our planet. Presently, about 1.4 million species have been named. It has been estimated that there are perhaps 9 million more that have not been identified. What is known is that they are vanishing at an unprecedented rate. Reliable estimates show extinction occurring at a rate several orders of magnitude above “background” in some ecological systems (Wilson 1992, Hoose 1981). The reasons for protecting biological diversity are complex, but they fall into four major categories. First, loss of diversity generally weakens entire natural systems. Healthy ecosystems tend to have many natural checks and balances. Every species plays a role in maintaining this system. When simplified by the loss of diversity, the system becomes more susceptible to natural and artificial perturbations. The chances of a system-wide collapse increase. In parts of the midwestern United States, for example, it was only the remnant areas of natural prairies that kept soil intact during the dust bowl years of the 1930s (Roush 1982). Simplified ecosystems are almost always expensive to maintain. For example, when synthetic chemicals are relied upon to control pests, the target species are not the only ones affected. Their predators are almost always killed or driven away, exasperating the pest problem. In the meantime, people are unintentionally breeding pesticide-resistant pests. A process has begun where people become perpetual guardians of the affected area, which requires the expenditure of financial resources and human ingenuity to keep the system going. A second reason for protecting biological diversity is that it represents one of our greatest untapped resources. Great benefits can be reaped from a single species. About 20 species provide 90% of the world’s food. Of these 20, just three, wheat, maize, and rice-supply over one half of that food. American wheat farmers need new varieties every five to 15 years to compete with pests and diseases. Wild strains of wheat are critical genetic reservoirs for these new varieties. Further, every species is a potential source of human medicine. In 1980, a published report identified the market value of prescription drugs from higher plants at over $3 billion. Organic alkaloids, a class of NRI 2401 January 2024 12 chemical compounds used in medicines, are found in an estimated 20% of plant species. Yet only 2% of plant species have been screened for these compounds (Hoose 1981). The third reason for protecting diversity is that humans benefit from natural areas and depend on healthy ecosystems. The natural world supplies our air, our water, our food and supports human economic activity. Further, humans are creatures that evolved in a diverse natural environment between forest and grasslands. People need to be reassured that such places remain. When people speak of “going to the country,” they generally mean more than getting out of town. For reasons of their own sanity and wellbeing, they need a holistic, organic experience. Prolonged exposure to urban monotony produces neuroses, for which cultural and natural diversity cure. Historically, the lack of attention to biological diversity, and the ecological processes it supports, has resulted in economic hardships for segments of the basin’s human population. The final reason for protecting biological diversity is that species and natural systems are intrinsically valuable. The above reasons have focused on the benefits of the natural world to humans. All things possess intrinsic value simply because they exist. BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES CONCERNING THE SUBJECT PARCEL As part of the Natural Resources Information Report, staff checks office maps to determine if any nature preserves or ecologically sensitive areas are in the general vicinity of the parcel in question. If there is a nature preserve in the area, then that resource will be identified as part of the report. The SWCD recommends that every effort be made to protect that resource. Such efforts should include, but are not limited to erosion control, sediment control, stormwater management, and groundwater monitoring. ______________________________________________________________________________ 1Taken from The Conservation of Biological Diversity in the Great Lakes Ecosystem: Issues and Opportunities, prepared by the Nature Conservancy Great Lakes Program 79W. Monroe Street, Suite 1309, Chicago, IL 60603, January 1994. Office maps indicate that ecologically sensitive area(s) are located on or near the parcel in question (PIQ). Rob Roy Creek and an unnamed tributary of Rob Roy Creek flow through the PIQ. Rob Roy Creek is a tributary of the Fox River. NRI 2401 January 2024 13 SOILS INFORMATION IMPORTANCE OF SOILS INFORMATION Soils information comes from the Natural Resources Conservation Service Soil Maps and Descriptions for Kendall County. This information is important to all parties involved in determining the suitability of the proposed land use change. Each soil polygon is given a number, which represents its soil type. The letter found after the soil type number indicates the soils slope class. Each soil map unit has limitations for a variety of land uses such as septic systems, buildings with basements, and buildings without basements. It is important to remember that soils do not function independently of each other. The behavior of a soil depends upon the physical properties of adjacent soil types, the presence of artificial drainage, soil compaction, and its position in the local landscape. The limitation categories (not limited, somewhat limited, or very limited) indicate the potential for difficulty in using that soil unit for the proposed activity and, thus, the degree of need for thorough soil borings and engineering studies. A limitation does not necessarily mean that the proposed activity cannot be done on that soil type. It does mean that the reasons for the limitation need to be thoroughly understood and dealt with to complete the proposed activity successfully. Very limited indicates that the proposed activity will be more difficult and costly to do on that soil type than on a soil type with a somewhat limited or not limited rating. Soil survey interpretations are predictions of soil behavior for specified land uses and specified management practices. They are based on the soil properties that directly influence the specified use of the soil. Soil survey interpretations allow users of soil surveys to plan reasonable alternatives for the use and management of soils. Soil interpretations do not eliminate the need for on-site study and testing of specific sites for the design and construction for specific uses. They can be used as a guide for planning more detailed investigations and for avoiding undesirable sites for an intended use. The scale of the maps and the range of error limit the use of the soil delineation.

This report gives ratings for proposed uses in terms of limitations and restrictive features. The tables list only the most restrictive features. Other features may need treatment to overcome soil limitations for a specific purpose. Ratings come from the soil's "natural" state, that is, no unusual modification occurs other than that which is considered normal practice for the rated use. Even though soils may have limitations, an engineer may alter soil features or adjust building plans for a structure to compensate for most degrees of limitations. Most of these practices, however, are costly. The final decision in selecting a site for a particular use generally involves weighing the costs for site preparation and maintenance. Soil properties influence development of building sites, including the selection of the site, the design of the structure, construction, performance after construction, and maintenance. Soil limitation ratings of not limited, somewhat limited, and very limited are given for the types of proposed improvements that are listed or inferred by the petitioner as entered on the report application and/or zoning petition. The most common types of building limitation that this report gives limitations ratings for is septic systems. It is understood that engineering practices can overcome most limitations for buildings with and without basements, and small commercial buildings. Limitation ratings for these types of buildings are not commonly provided. Organic soils, when present on the parcel, are referenced in the hydric soils section of the report. This type of soil is considered unsuitable for all types of construction. LIMIATIONS RATINGS x Not Limited: This soil has favorable properties for the use. The degree of limitation is minor. The people involved can expect good performance and low maintenance. x Somewhat Limited: This soil has moderately favorable properties for the use. Special planning, design, or maintenance can overcome this degree of limitation. During some part of the year, the expected performance is less desirable than for soils rated slight. x Very Limited: This soil has one or more properties that are unfavorable for the rated use. These may include the following: steep slopes, bedrock near the surface, flooding, high shrink-swell potential, a seasonal high water table, or low strength. This degree of limitation generally requires major soil reclamation, special design, or intensive maintenance, which in most situations is difficult and costly. NRI 2401 January 2024 16 BUILDING LIMITATIONS BUILDING ON POORLY SUITED OR UNSUITABLE SOILS Building on poorly suited or unsuitable soils can present problems to future property owners such as cracked foundations, wet basements, lowered structural integrity and high maintenance costs associated with these problems. The staff of the Kendall County SWCD strongly urges scrutiny by the plat reviewers when granting parcels with these soils exclusively. Solar Arrays, Soil-Penetrating Anchor Systems – Ground-based solar arrays are sets of photovoltaic panels that are not situated on a building or pole. These installations consist of a racking system that holds the panel in the desired orientation and the foundation structures that hold the racking system to the ground. Two basic methods are used to hold the systems to the ground, based on site conditions and cost. One method employs driven piles, screw augers, or concrete piers that penetrate the soil to provide a stable foundation. Solar Arrays, Ballast Anchor Systems Ground-based solar arrays are sets of photovoltaic panels that are not situated on a building or pole. These installations consist of a racking system that holds the panel in the desired orientation and the foundation structures that hold the racking system to the ground. Ballast anchor systems can be used in some places where soil-penetrating systems cannot, such as in shallow or stony soil. Also, since they do not penetrate the soil, ballast systems can be used where the soil is contaminated, and disturbance is to be avoided. The soil in the area must have sufficient strength to be able to support the vehicles that haul the ballast and the machinery to install it. Shallow Excavations – Trenches or holes dug to a maximum depth of 5 or 6 feet for utility lines, open ditches, or other purposes. Ratings are based on soil properties that influence the ease of digging and the resistance to sloughing. Lawns and Landscaping – Require soils on which turf and ornamental trees and shrubs can be established and maintained (irrigation is not considered in the ratings). The ratings are based on the soil properties that affect plant growth and trafficability after vegetation is established.

HYDROLOGIC SOIL GROUPS (HSGs) – The groups are based on estimates of runoff potential. Soils are assigned to one of four groups according to the rate of water infiltration when the soils are not protected by vegetation, are thoroughly wet, and receive precipitation from long-duration storms. x Group A: Soils having a high infiltration rate (low runoff potential) when thoroughly wet. These consist mainly of deep, well drained to excessively drained sands or gravelly sands. These soils have a high rate of water transmission. x Group B: Soils having a moderate infiltration rate when thoroughly wet. These consist chiefly of moderately deep or deep, moderately well drained, or well drained soils that have moderately fine texture to moderately coarse texture. These soils have a moderate rate of water transmission. x Group C: Soils having a slow infiltration rate when thoroughly wet. These consist chiefly of soils having a layer that impedes the downward movement of water or soils of moderately fine texture or fine texture. These soils have a slow rate of water transmission. x Group D: Soils having a very slow infiltration rate (high runoff potential) when thoroughly wet. These consist chiefly of clays that have a high shrink-swell potential, soils that have a high water table, soils that have a claypan or clay layer at or near the surface, and soils that are shallow over nearly impervious material. These soils have a very slow rate of water transmission. Note: If a soil is assigned to a dual hydrologic group (A/D, B/D or C/D) the first letter is for drained areas and the second is for undrained areas. SURFACE RUNOFF – Surface runoff refers to the loss of water from an area by flow over the land surface. Surface runoff classes are based upon slope, climate and vegetative cover and indicates relative runoff for very specific conditions (it is assumed that the surface of the soil is bare and that the retention of surface water resulting from irregularities in the ground surface is minimal). The classes are negligible, very low, low, medium, high, and very high. MONTHS – The portion of the year in which a water table, ponding, and/or flooding is most likely to be a concern. WATER TABLE – Water table refers to a saturated zone in the soil and the data indicates, by month, depth to the top (upper limit) and base (lower limit) of the saturated zone in most years. These estimates are based upon observations of the water table at selected sites and on evidence of a saturated zone (grayish colors or mottles (redoximorphic features)) in the soil. Note: A saturated zone that lasts for less than a month is not considered a water table. PONDING – Ponding refers to standing water in a closed depression, and the data indicates surface water depth, duration, and frequency of ponding. NRI 2401 January 2024 22 x Duration: Expressed as very brief if less than 2 days, brief if 2 to 7 days, long if 7 to 30 days and very long if more than 30 days. x Frequency: Expressed as: none meaning ponding is not possible; rare means unlikely but possible under unusual weather conditions (chance of ponding is 0-5% in any year); occasional means that it occurs, on the average, once or less in 2 years (chance of ponding is 5 to 50% in any year); and frequent means that it occurs, on the average, more than once in 2 years (chance of ponding is more than 50% in any year). FLOODING – The temporary inundation of an area caused by overflowing streams, by runoff from adjacent slopes, or by tides. Water standing for short periods after rainfall or snowmelt is not considered flooding, and water standing in swamps and marshes is considered ponding rather than flooding. x Duration: Expressed as: extremely brief if 0.1 hour to 4 hours; very brief if 4 hours to 2 days; brief if 2 to 7 days; long if 7 to 30 days; and very long if more than 30 days. x Frequency: Expressed as: none means flooding is not probable; very rare means that it is very unlikely but possible under extremely unusual weather conditions (chance of flooding is less than 1% in any year); rare means that it is unlikely but possible under unusual weather conditions (chance of flooding is 1 to 5% in any year); occasional means that it occurs infrequently under normal weather conditions (chance of flooding is 5 to 50% in any year but is less than 50% in all months in any year); and very frequent means that it is likely to occur very often under normal weather conditions (chance of flooding is more than 50% in all months of any year). Note: The information is based on evidence in the soil profile. In addition, consideration is also given to local information about the extent and levels of flooding and the relation of each soil on the landscape to historic floods. Information on the extent of flooding based on soil data is less specific than that provided by detailed engineering surveys that delineate flood-prone areas at specific flood frequency levels.

Soil erosion threatens the Nation's soil productivity and contributes the most pollutants in our waterways. Water causes about two thirds of erosion on agricultural land. Four properties, mainly, determine a soil's erodibility: texture, slope, structure, and organic matter content. Slope has the most influence on soil erosion potential when the site is under construction. Erosivity and runoff increase as slope grade increases. The runoff then exerts more force on the particles, breaking their bonds more readily and carrying them farther before deposition. The longer water flows along a slope before reaching a major waterway, the greater the potential for erosion. Soil erosion during and after this proposed construction can be a primary non-point source of water pollution. Eroded soil during the construction phase can create unsafe conditions on roadways, decrease the storage capacity of lakes, clog streams and drainage channels, cause deterioration of aquatic habitats, and increase water treatment costs. Soil erosion also increases the risk of flooding by choking culverts, ditches, and storm sewers and by reducing the capacity of natural and man-made detention facilities. The general principles of erosion and sedimentation control measures include: x Reducing/diverting flow from exposed areas, storing flows, or limiting runoff from exposed areas x Staging construction to keep disturbed areas to a minimum x Establishing or maintaining temporary or permanent groundcover x Retaining sediment on site x Properly installing, inspecting, and maintaining control measures Erosion control practices are useful controls only if they are properly located, installed, inspected, and maintained. Soil erosion and sedimentation control plans, including maintenance responsibilities, should be clearly communicated to all contractors working on the site. The SWCD recommends an erosion and sediment control plan for all building sites, especially if there is a wetland or stream nearby. Additionally, a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit (Permit No. ILR10) from the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA) is required for stormwater discharges from construction sites that will disturb 1 or more acres of land. Conditions of the NPDES ILR10 permit require the development and implementation of a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) to reduce stormwater pollutants on the construction site before they can cause environmental issues.

Some of the most productive soils in the United States occur locally. Each soil map unit in the United States is assigned a prime or non-prime rating. Prime agricultural land does not need to be in the production of food & fiber. Section 310 of the NRCS general manual states that urban or built-up land on prime farmland soils is not prime farmland. The percentages of soil map units on the parcel reflect the determination that urban or built-up land on prime farmland soils is not prime farmland. Table 7: Prime Farmland Soils Soil Type Prime Designation Acreage Percent 67A Prime Farmland if Drained 0.6 1.4% 149A Prime Farmland 4.3 10.1% 152A Prime Farmland if Drained 23.4 54.5% 330A Prime Farmland if Drained 14.4 33.5% 791B Prime Farmland 0.2 0.5% % Prime Farmland 100% Figure 7: Prime Farmland Soils NRI 2401 January 2024 25 LAND EVALUATION AND SITE ASSESSMENT (LESA) Decision-makers in Kendall County use the Land Evaluation and Site Assessment (LESA) system to determine the suitability of a land use change and/or a zoning request as it relates to agricultural land. The LESA system was developed by the United States Department of Agriculture-Natural Resources Conservation Service (USDA-NRCS) and takes into consideration local conditions such as physical characteristics of the land, compatibility of surrounding land-uses, and urban growth factors. The LESA system is a two-step procedure that includes: LAND EVALUATION (LE) The soils of a given area are rated and placed in groups ranging from the best to worst suited for a stated agriculture use, cropland, or forestland. The best group is assigned a value of 100, and all other groups are assigned lower values. The Land Evaluation is based on data from the Kendall County Soil Survey. The LE score is calculated by multiplying the relative value of each soil type by the number of acres of that soil. The sum of the products is then divided by the total number of acres; the answer is the Land Evaluation score on this site. The Kendall County Soil and Water Conservation District is responsible for this portion of the LESA system. SITE ASSESSMENT (SA) The site is numerically evaluated according to important factors that contribute to the quality of the site. Each factor selected is assigned values in accordance with the local needs and objectives. The value group is a predetermined value based upon prime farmland designation. The Kendall County LESA Committee is responsible for this portion of the LESA system. Please Note: A land evaluation (LE) score will be compiled for every project parcel. However, when a parcel is located within municipal planning boundaries, a site assessment (SA) score is not compiled as the scoring factors are not applicable. As a result, only the LE score is available, and a full LESA score is unavailable for the parcel. Table 8: Land Evaluation Computation Soil Type Value Group Relative Value Acres* Product (Relative Value x Acres) 67A 2 94 0.6 56.4 149A 1 100 4.3 430.0 152A 1 100 23.4 2,340.0 330A 3 87 14.4 1,252.8 791B 4 79 0.2 15.8 43.0 4,095.0 LE Calculation (Product of relative value / Total Acres) 4,095.0 / 43.0 = 95.2 LE Score LE = 95 *Acreage listed in this chart provides a generalized representation and may not precisely reflect exact acres of each soil type. NRI 2401 January 2024 26 The Land Evaluation (LE) score for this site is 95 out of 100, indicating that the soils are well suited for agricultural uses considering the Land Evaluation score is above 80. The full LESA Score is not applicable for the proposed project site since it is within municipal planning boundaries. Selecting the project site with the lowest total points will generally protect the best farmland and maintain and promote the agricultural industry in Kendall County. NRI 2401 January 2024 27 LAND USE PLANS Many counties, municipalities, villages, and townships have developed land-use plans. These plans are intended to reflect the existing and future land-use needs of a given community. Please contact the United City of Yorkville’s Community Development Department for information regarding their comprehensive land use plan and map. DRAINAGE, RUNOFF, AND FLOOD INFORMATION U.S.G.S Topographic maps give information on elevations, which are important mostly to determine slopes, drainage directions, and watershed information. Elevations determine the area of impact of floods of record. Slope information determines steepness and erosion potential. Drainage directions determine where water leaves the PIQ, possibly impacting surrounding natural resources. Watershed information is given for changing land use to a subdivision type of development on parcels greater than 10 acres. WHAT IS A WATERSHED? Simply stated, a watershed is the area of land that contributes water to a certain point. The watershed boundary is important because the area of land in the watershed can now be calculated using an irregular shape area calculator such as a dot counter or planimeter. Using regional storm event information, and site-specific soils and land use information, the peak stormwater flow through the point marked “{” for a specified storm event can be calculated. This value is called a “Q” value (for the given storm event) and is measured in cubic feet per second (CFS). When construction occurs, the Q value naturally increases because of the increase in impermeable surfaces. This process decreases the ability of soils to accept and temporarily hold water. Therefore, more water runs off and increases the Q value. Theoretically, if each development, no matter how large or small, maintains their preconstruction Q value after construction by the installation of stormwater management systems, the streams and wetlands and lakes will not suffer damage from excessive urban stormwater. For this reason, the Kendall County SWCD recommends that the developer for intense uses, such as a subdivision, calculate the preconstruction Q value for the exit point(s). A stormwater management system NRI 2401 January 2024 28 should be designed, installed, and maintained to limit the postconstruction Q value to be at or below the preconstruction value. IMPORTANCE OF FLOOD INFORMATION A floodplain is defined as land adjoining a watercourse (riverine) or an inland depression (non-riverine) that is subject to periodic inundation by high water. Floodplains are important areas demanding protection since they have water storage and conveyance functions which affect upstream and downstream flows, water quality and quantity, and suitability of the land for human activity. Since floodplains play distinct and vital roles in the hydrologic cycle, development that interferes with their hydrologic and biologic functions should be carefully considered. Flooding is both dangerous to people and destructive to their properties. The following maps, when combined with wetland and topographic information, can help developers and future homeowners to “sidestep” potential flooding or ponding problems. Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs), produced by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), define flood elevation adjacent to tributaries and major bodies of water and superimpose that onto a simplified USGS topographic map. The scale of the FIRM maps is generally dependent on the size and density of parcels in that area. This is to correctly determine the parcel location and floodplain location. The FIRM map has three (3) zones. Zone A includes the 100-year flood (1% annual chance flood), Zone B or Zone X (shaded) is the 100 to 500-year flood (between limits of the 1% and the 0.2% annual chance flood), and Zone C or Zone X (unshaded) is outside the floodplain (outside the 0.2% annual chance flood). The Hydrologic Atlas (H.A.) Series of the Flood of Record Map is also used for the topographic information. This map is different from the FIRM map mainly because it will show isolated or pocketed flooded areas. Kendall County uses both these maps in conjunction with each other for flooded area determinations. The Flood of Record maps show the areas of flood for various years. Both maps stress that the recurrence of flooding is merely statistical. A 100-year flood may occur twice in one year, or twice in one week, for that matter. It should be noted that greater floods than those shown on the two maps are possible. The flood boundaries indicated provide a historic record only until the map publication date. Additionally, these flood boundaries are a function of the watershed conditions existing when the maps were produced. Cumulative changes in runoff characteristics caused by urbanization can result in an increase in flood height of future flood episodes. Floodplains play a vital role in reducing the flood damage potential associated with an urbanizing area and, when left in an undisturbed state, also provide valuable wildlife habitat benefits. If it is the petitioner's intent to conduct floodplain filling or modification activities, the petitioner, and the Unit of Government responsible need to consider the potentially adverse effects this type of action could have on adjacent properties. The change or loss of natural floodplain storage often increases the frequency and severity of flooding on adjacent property. NRI 2401 January 2024 29 If the available maps indicate the presence of a floodplain on the PIQ, the petitioner should contact the IDNR-OWR and FEMA to delineate a floodplain elevation for the parcel. If a portion of the property is indeed floodplain, applicable state, county, and local regulations will need to be reflected in the site plans. Another indication of flooding potential can be found in the soils information. Hydric soils indicate the presence of drainage ways, areas subject to ponding, or a naturally occurring high water table. These need to be considered along with the floodplain information when developing the site plan and the stormwater management plan. Development on hydric soils can contribute to the loss of water storage within the soil and the potential for increased flooding in the area. Figure 8: Flood Map This parcel is located on minimal topography (slopes 0 to 4%) and an elevation range of approximately 638’-644’ above sea level. The lowest point is along the unnamed tributary, and the highest point is in the northwest portion of the site. According to the FEMA Flood Map (Figure 8), the parcel does not likely contain areas of regulated floodplain or floodway. The parcel is mapped as Zone X, an Area of Minimal Flood Hazard. NRI 2401 January 2024 30 Figure 9: Topographic Map NRI 2401 January 2024 31 WATERSHED PLANS WATERSHED AND SUB WATERSHED INFORMATION A watershed is the area of land that drains into a specific point including a stream, lake, or other body of water. High points on the Earth’s surface, such as hills and ridges define watersheds. When rain falls in the watershed, it flows across the ground towards a stream or lake. Rainwater carries pollutants such as oils, pesticides, and soil. Everyone lives in a watershed. Their actions can impact natural resources and people living downstream. Residents can minimize this impact by being aware of their environment and the implications of their activities, implementing practices recommended in watershed plans, and educating others about their watershed. The following are recommendations to developers for protection of this watershed: x Preserve open space x Maintain wetlands as part of development x Use natural water management x Prevent soil from leaving a construction site x Protect subsurface drainage x Use native vegetation x Retain natural features x Mix housing styles and types x Decrease impervious surfaces x Reduce area disturbed by mass grading x Shrink lot size and create more open space x Maintain historical and cultural resources x Treat water where it falls x Preserve views x Establish and link trails This parcel is located within the Lower Fox River watershed and the Rob Roy Creek sub watershed (HUC 12 – 071200070601). The Rob Roy Creek sub watershed comprises 13,393.76 acres of Kendall County. NRI 2401 January 2024 32 WETLAND INFORMATION IMPORTANCE OF WETLAND INFORMATION Wetlands function in many ways to provide numerous benefits to society. They control flooding by offering a slow release of excess water downstream or through the soil. They cleanse water by filtering out sediment and some pollutants and can function as rechargers of our valuable groundwater. They also are essential breeding, rearing, and feeding grounds for many species of wildlife. These benefits are particularly valuable in urbanizing areas as development activity typically adversely affects water quality, increases the volume of stormwater runoff, and increases the demand for groundwater. In an area where many individual homes rely on shallow groundwater wells for domestic water supplies, activities that threaten potential groundwater recharge areas are contrary to the public good. The conversion of wetlands, with their sediment trapping and nutrient absorbing vegetation, to biologically barren stormwater detention ponds can cause additional degradation of water quality in downstream or adjacent areas. It has been estimated that over 95% of the wetlands that were historically present in Illinois have been destroyed while only recently has the true environmental significance of wetlands been fully recognized. America is losing 100,000 acres of wetland a year and has saved 5 million acres total (since 1934). One acre of wetland can filter 7.3 million gallons of water a year. These are reasons why our wetlands are high quality and important. This section contains the National Wetlands Inventory, which is the most comprehensive inventory to date. The National Wetlands Inventory is reproduced from an aerial photo at a scale of 1” equals 660 feet. The NRCS developed these maps in cooperation with U.S. EPA (Environmental Protection Agency,) and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, using the National Food Security Act Manual, 3rd Edition. The main purpose of these maps is to determine wetland areas on agricultural fields and areas that may be wetlands but are in a non-agriculture setting. The National Wetlands Inventory in no way gives an exact delineation of the wetlands, but merely an outline, or the determination that there is a wetland within the outline. For the final, most accurate wetland determination of a specific wetland, a wetland delineation must be certified by NRCS staff using the National Food Security Act Manual (on agricultural land.) On urban land, a certified wetland delineator must perform the delineation using the ACOE 1987 Manual. See the glossary section for the definitions of “delineation” and “determination.” NRI 2401 January 2024 33 Figure 10: Wetland Map Office maps indicate that mapped wetlands/waters are present on the parcel in question (PIQ). To determine the presence of wetlands, a wetland delineation specialist, who is recognized by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, should determine the exact boundaries and value of the wetlands. A Wetland Determination/Delineation Report dated September 1, 2023, was prepared by Atwell, LLC. The results of their review indicated the presence of two watercourses on the site (Rob Roy Creek and an unnamed tributary of Rob Roy Creek). Please see their report for more information. NRI 2401 January 2024 34 HYDRIC SOILS Soils information gives another indication of flooding potential. The soils map on the following page indicates the soil(s) on the parcel that the Natural Resources Conservation Service indicates as hydric. Hydric soils, by definition, have seasonal high water at or near the soil surface and/or have potential flooding or ponding problems. All hydric soils range from poorly suited to unsuitable for building. One group of the hydric soils are the organic soils, which formed from dead organic material. Organic soils are unsuitable for building because of not only the high water table but also their subsidence problems. It is important to add the possibility of hydric inclusions in a soil type. An inclusion is a soil polygon that is too small to appear on these maps. While relatively insignificant for agricultural use, hydric soil inclusions become more important to more intense uses such as a residential subdivision. While considering hydric soils and hydric inclusions, it is noteworthy to mention that subsurface agriculture drainage tile occurs in almost all poorly drained and somewhat poorly drained soils. Drainage tile expedites drainage and facilitates farming. It is imperative that these drainage tiles remain undisturbed. A damaged subsurface drainage tile may return original hydrologic conditions to all the areas that drained through the tile (ranging from less than one acre to many square miles.) For an intense land use, the Kendall County SWCD recommends the following: a topographical survey with 1 foot contour intervals to accurately define the flood area on the parcel, an intensive soil survey to define most accurately the locations of the hydric soils and inclusions, and a drainage tile survey on the area to locate the tiles that must be preserved to maintain subsurface drainage. Table 9: Hydric Soils Soil Types Drainage Class Hydric Designation Hydric Inclusions Likely Hydric Rating % Acres % Area 67A Poorly Drained Hydric N/A 98% 0.6 1.4% 149A Somewhat Poorly Drained Non-Hydric Yes 3% 4.3 10.1% 152A Poorly Drained Hydric N/A 100% 23.4 54.5% 330A Very Poorly Drained Hydric N/A 100% 14.4 33.5% 791B Well Drained Non-Hydric No 0% 0.2 0.5% NRI 2401 January 2024 35 Figure 11: Hydric Soil Map NRI 2401 January 2024 36 WETLAND AND FLOODPLAIN REGULATIONS The laws of the United States and the State of Illinois assign certain agencies specific and different regulatory roles to protect the waters within the State's boundaries. These roles, when considered together, include protection of navigation channels and harbors, protection against floodway encroachments, maintenance and enhancement of water quality, protection of fish and wildlife habitat and recreational resources, and, in general, the protection of total public interest. Unregulated use of the waters within the State of Illinois could permanently destroy or alter the character of these valuable resources and adversely impact the public. Therefore, please contact the proper regulatory authorities when planning any work associated with Illinois waters so that proper consideration and approval can be obtained. WHO MUST APPLY? Anyone proposing to dredge, fill, rip rap, or otherwise alter the banks or beds of, or construct, operate, or maintain any dock, pier, wharf, sluice, dam, piling, wall, fence, utility, floodplain or floodway subject to State or Federal regulatory jurisdiction should apply for agency approvals.

NRI 2401 January 2024 37 GLOSSARY AGRICULTURAL PROTECTION AREAS (AG AREAS) - Allowed by P.A. 81-1173. An AG AREA consists of a minimum of 350 acres of farmland, as contiguous and compact as possible. Petitioned by landowners, AG AREAS protect for a period of ten years initially, then reviewed every eight years thereafter. AG AREA establishment exempts landowners from local nuisance ordinances directed at farming operations, and designated land cannot receive special tax assessments on public improvements that do not benefit the land, e.g. water and sewer lines. AGRICULTURE - The growing, harvesting and storing of crops including legumes, hay, grain, fruit and truck or vegetable including dairying, poultry, swine, sheep, beef cattle, pony and horse production, fur farms, and fish and wildlife farms; farm buildings used for growing, harvesting and preparing crop products for market, or for use on the farm; roadside stands, farm buildings for storing and protecting farm machinery and equipment from the elements, for housing livestock or poultry and for preparing livestock or poultry products for market; farm dwellings occupied by farm owners, operators, tenants or seasonal or year around hired farm workers. BEDROCK - Indicates depth at which bedrock occurs. Also lists hardness as rippable or hard. FLOODING - Indicates frequency, duration, and period during year when floods are likely to occur. HIGH WATER TABLE - A seasonal high water table is a zone of saturation at the highest average depth during the wettest part of the year. May be apparent, perched, or artesian kinds of water tables. x Water table, Apparent: A thick zone of free water in the soil. An apparent water table is indicated by the level at which water stands in an uncased borehole after adequate time is allowed for adjustment in the surrounding soil. x Water table, Artesian: A water table under hydrostatic head, generally beneath an impermeable layer. When this layer is penetrated, the water level rises in an uncased borehole. x Water table, Perched: A water table standing above an unsaturated zone. In places an upper, or perched, water table is separated from a lower one by a dry zone. DELINEATION - For Wetlands: A series of pink or orange flags placed on the ground by a certified professional that outlines the wetland boundary on a parcel. DETERMINATION - A polygon drawn on a map using map information that gives an outline of a wetland. HYDRIC SOIL - This type of soil is saturated, flooded, or ponded long enough during the growing season to develop anaerobic conditions in the upper part (USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service 1987). INTENSIVE SOIL MAPPING - Mapping done on a smaller more intensive scale than a modern soil survey to determine soil properties of a specific site, e.g. mapping for septic suitability. NRI 2401 January 2024 38 LAND EVALUATION AND SITE ASSESSMENT (L.E.S.A.) - LESA is a systematic approach for evaluating a parcel of land and to determine a numerical value for the parcel for farmland preservation purposes. MODERN SOIL SURVEY - A soil survey is a field investigation of the soils of a specific area, supported by information from other sources. The kinds of soil in the survey area are identified and their extent shown on a map, and an accompanying report describes, defines, classifies, and interprets the soils. Interpretations predict the behavior of the soils under different used and the soils' response to management. Predictions are made for areas of soil at specific places. Soils information collected in a soil survey is useful in developing land-use plans and alternatives involving soil management systems and in evaluating and predicting the effects of land use. PERMEABILITY - Values listed estimate the range (in rate and time) it takes for downward movement of water in the major soil layers when saturated but allowed to drain freely. The estimates are based on soil texture, soil structure, available data on permeability and infiltration tests, and observation of water movement through soils or other geologic materials. PIQ - Parcel in question POTENTIAL FROST ACTION - Damage that may occur to structures and roads due to ice lens formation causing upward and lateral soil movement. Based primarily on soil texture and wetness. PRIME FARMLAND - Prime farmland soils are lands that are best suited to food, feed, forage, fiber and oilseed crops. It may be cropland, pasture, woodland, or other land, but it is not urban and built up land or water areas. It either is used for food or fiber or is available for those uses. The soil qualities, growing season, and moisture supply are those needed for a well-managed soil economically to produce a sustained high yield of crops. Prime farmland produces in highest yields with minimum inputs of energy and economic resources and farming the land results in the least damage to the environment. Prime farmland has an adequate and dependable supply of moisture from precipitation or irrigation. The temperature and growing season are favorable. The level of acidity or alkalinity is acceptable. Prime farmland has few or no rocks and is permeable to water and air. It is not excessively erodible or saturated with water for long periods and is not frequently flooded during the growing season. The slope ranges mainly from 0 to 5 percent (USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service). SEASONAL - When used in reference to wetlands indicates that the area is flooded only during a portion of the year. SHRINK-SWELL POTENTIAL - Indicates volume changes to be expected for the specific soil material with changes in moisture content. SOIL MAPPING UNIT - A map unit is a collection of soil areas of miscellaneous areas delineated in mapping. A map unit is generally an aggregate of the delineations of many different bodies of a kind of soil or miscellaneous area but may consist of only one delineated body. Taxonomic class names and accompanying phase terms are used to name soil map units. They are described in terms of ranges of soil properties within the limits defined for taxa and in terms of ranges of taxadjuncts and inclusions. NRI 2401 January 2024 39 SOIL SERIES - A group of soils, formed from a particular type of parent material, having horizons that, except for texture of the A or surface horizon, are similar in all profile characteristics and in arrangement in the soil profile. Among these characteristics are color, texture, structure, reaction, consistence, and mineralogical and chemical composition. SUBSIDENCE - Applies mainly to organic soils after drainage. Soil material subsides due to shrinkage and oxidation. TOPSOIL - That portion of the soil profile where higher concentrations of organic material, fertility, bacterial activity and plant growth take place. Depths of topsoil vary between soil types. WATERSHED - An area of land that drains to an associated water resource such as a wetland, river or lake. Depending on the size and topography, watersheds can contain numerous tributaries, such as streams and ditches, and ponding areas such as detention structures, natural ponds and wetlands. WETLAND - An area that has a predominance of hydric soils and that is inundated or saturated by surface or groundwater at a frequency and duration sufficient enough to support, and under normal circumstances does support, a prevalence of hydrophytic vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil conditions.

PLAN COUNCIL AGENDA Thursday, February , 2023 9:00 a.m. City Hall Community Development 2nd Floor - Conference Room Remote Access via Zoom 1. Minutes for approval: November 9, 2023 2. PZC 2024-05 Corneils Solar Farm/Nexamp (Bennett) – Annexation, Rezone, and Special Use Adjournment United City of Yorkville 651 Prairie Pointe Drive Yorkville, Illinois 60560 Telephone: 630-553-4350 Fax: 630-553-7575 DRAFT Page 1 of 3 UNITED CITY OF YORKVILLE PLAN COUNCIL Community Development City Hall Conference Room, 2nd floor 651 Prairie Pointe Drive, Yorkville, IL Thursday, November 9, 2023 9:00am IN ATTENDANCE: Krysti Barksdale Noble, Community Development Director Bart Olson, City Administrator Michael Keith, Atwell, LLC Dan Nagel, property owner Matt Walsh, Nexamp Dan Kramer, Attorney Ms. Noble called the meeting to order at 9:01am. She said the Engineer and Public Works Director were unable to be present, however, she did have comments from them. 1. Minutes for approval: October 12, 2023 The minutes were approved as presented. 2. PZC 2024-01 Yorkville Renewables/Nexamp-Solar Farm Ms. Noble said the purpose of the meeting was to review comments from staff members regarding this solar project proposal. Introductions of meeting participants were made. Mr. Walsh gave a PowerPoint presentation and an overview of the proposal. He discussed the equipment necessary for the site and their function. A camera system will be utilized and will feed to a monitoring center. The landscaping will include pollinator plants and they are also open to fencing. Com Ed will install power poles to ensure not too much power is sent through the system. He said the site is part of the original Westbury PUD which is currently being dismantled. Mr. Nagel's property was determined to be the most favorable for this proposed project and the current recycling center is nearby. An existing easement intended for future roads will be used for access and approval from Kendall County has already been given for Galena Road access. Mr. Walsh discussed some of the setback distances and said the project had generous buffers for the site. Attorney Kramer noted another proposed solar project farther north and that Aldermen had expressed they did not want solar fields visible at city entrances. He said his client has been mindful of these wishes. Staff Comments: Ms. Noble gave an overview and shared staff comments. The facility is a 5 megawatt and permitted in an agriculture district for which the petitioner is seeking rezoning. It is part of a PUD now, which the city is dismantling and this parcel would be excluded from the PUD. A variance might be needed concerning the clearance from the ground. A Unified Development Ordinance is in the process of being passed and if approved by January 1, a variance will not be needed. She also addressed the setbacks. She asked the petitioner if the setback is the distance to the solar field or to the array. Mr. Page 2 of 3 Walsh will re-measure and provide the information. The distance to neighboring properties was also unclear. Other Staff Items Discussed: 1. Total number of arrays will need to be verified and Ms. Noble noted the $7.00 per array cost for the building permit. 2. Discussed the inverters, transformers and tracking motors. Some systems require a motor for each row of arrays, while others need one motor per several rows, said Mr. Walsh. An estimate of the number will be needed. He noted that the motors only run a few seconds when turning the arrays. 3. Ms. Noble said the lease length is needed and if there is an option to extend. 4. Glare and lighting studies were provided and a rendering of view sheds is needed. 5. An 8-foot tall galvanized fence with slats is required to obscure the view. 6. BKFD needs a Knox box and key. 7. The driveway will not be paved, but staff needs to know the composition of the road. 8. Regarding decommissioning plan, engineer needs a construction estimate for the the life of the lease and a 3% annual inflation rate is needed as part of the special lease application. A total cost for this process is needed. 9. Solar is an accessory use and the proposed 23 acres is only 31% of the overall area, meeting the requirements of being an accessory to the ag use criteria. 10. A small sign with contact information is preferred and Mr. Walsh added that it will provide shutdown information as well. 11. The city requires a blanket easement as part of the decommissioning plan. Ms. Noble said staff will work with the petitioner's attorney for a special license agreement so as not to encumber the title. Comments from Mr. Michael Keith: Mr. Michael Keith asked about requirement for stormwater detention and said there is a study that shows there is generally no detention needed in solar fields. There is no increase in water runoff with no surface change and in addition, the pollinator mix pulls water into the soil. He said the site is not being cleared and the gravel road also allows for water absorption. A stormwater storage basin will be discussed with the Engineer. Mr. Keith also addressed the flood plain. He said the FEMA maps do not show a flood plain on this site. Mr. Walsh said they are adding steel piles, but it has minimal impact on flooding. He asked for direction on what the engineer wishes. The petitioner is OK with the delineation report that has already been done. Mr. Walsh added there is a wetland near the roadway but is isolated and does not impact the Rob Roy creek. It was created when the sewer was put in and probably not regulated by the Army Corps. Page 3 of 3 Perimeter Easement: Mr. Walsh said the perimeter easement is OK for future improvements. He said there was a road dedication previously done along Galena Rd. & Rt. 47 for the property owner, but not for this project. Ms. Noble will discuss with Engineer Sanderson. Decommission Bond: This requires a 3% annual increase with the 120% estimate. The lease is for 20 years with options and the bond will need to be updated if the lease extends beyond 20 years. Photometric Plan: There will be no lighting on the site. Landscaping Comments: Native pollinators will be used and Ms. Noble will work with the petitioner for an approved plan. Shrubs and trees will be around the solar field, said Mr. Walsh, but there is not enough area to comply with the levels suggested and the buffering is the most important part for a solar field. Shrubs or trees are not needed along the access path. Ms. Noble said a preliminary plan for the pollinator mix would be helpful for the Planning and Zoning Commission meeting and she added that some projects have an agreement with the state for that plan. Some plants may be changed depending on site conditions. Mr. Walsh said a soil analysis will be done to see what plants are appropriate. Police Department: The petitioners said in general, there is low criminal activity on their sites and signage at the entrance is not an issue. The gate at the entrance is just into the solar farm, but there is free access on the sides of the gate. A breakable chain for the Fire Department could be installed. There will be an easement through the middle of the property, which is non-exclusive so only the owner needs to give consent. Other Comments: Mr. Walsh asked for any other input and Ms. Noble said to make sure the decommissioning estimate is relative to the area. Mr. Kramer said the drainage issue is non-existent. Ms. Noble said EDC has not narrowed the distance requirements from the road. The existing right-of-way of the road is there and approved already, said Mr. Nagel. Mr. Nagel asked if the ComEd line is underground from the solar farm to the Com Ed infrastructure nearby. He asked if it could be re-positioned, which it can be and a new pole is proposed for there. Comments from Mr. Bart Olson: Mr. Olson said the City Council does not want anything within 1,000 feet from the commercial corridor. He said to definitely focus on limiting the view shed from Raging Waves into the solar farm. Mr. Olson asked if any roadway improvements will be made or if just interior to the site—it will only be to the interior. The petitioners should make sure there is public benefit, improvements or donations, which is a concern of the Aldermen and should be a component of the proposal to the Council. Ms. Noble said a map will be provided at the next meeting to show the bufferings at various distances. She will also give the questions to the Engineer and will follow up via email to the meeting participants. When the Westbury PUD is resolved, meetings can then be scheduled. Adjournment There was no further business and the meeting adjourned at 9:57am. Minutes respectfully transcribed by Marlys Young, Minute Taker I have reviewed the applications for Annexation, Rezoning and Special Use request dated January 17, 2024 as submitted by Daniel Kramer on behalf of Nexamp dba Corneils Road Solar, LLC, petitioner.

The proposed 40-acre solar farm will be situated on approximately 94 acres of existing farmland located in unincorporated Kendall County immediately north of Corneils Road, east of Beecher Road and west of IL Route 47 (N. Bridge Street). The property also consists of an existing farm homestead with accessory buildings. Upon annexation, the petitioner seeks to rezone the parcel from the default R-1 Single-Family to A-1 Agricultural District zoning and requests special use authorization for a solar farm. Based upon my review of the application documents and preliminary plans, I have compiled the following comments (requests to the petitioner are underlined): ANNEXATION COMMENTS: 1. Contiguity of the subject parcel and Yorkville’s current corporate boundary is established immediately south of Corneils Road (Westbury South Village) and abutting to the east is the Westbury East Village. Both are undeveloped but entitled mixed-use planned unit developments. 2. Per Section 10-3-4 of the Yorkville Unified Development Ordinance (UDO), any territory annexed to the city shall automatically be classified within the R-1 Single-Family Suburban Residential District. Memorandum To: Plan Council From: Krysti J. Barksdale-Noble, Community Development Director CC: Sara Mendez, Planner I Date: January 24, 2024 Subject: PZC 2024-05 Corneils Road Solar, LLC/Nexamp, Inc.(Bennett) 3. Any approval of the requested rezoning and special use for the solar farm is contingent upon the approval of the annexation petition. REZONING COMMENTS: 1. Per Table 10-3-12(B) Alternative Energy Uses of the United City of Yorkville’s Unified Development Ordinance, solar farms are special uses in the A-1 Agricultural District. 2. Section 10-8-12 of the Unified Development Ordinance states specific standards for rezoning which all recommendation bodies will review. The petitioner has provided responses to the established standards for each of the criteria provided in the application. SPECIAL USE COMMENTS: Zoning The subject property consists of three (3) parcels (#02-08-300-008, 02-08-300-011, and 02-08-300-012) which are currently unincorporated and zoned A-1 Special Use in Kendall County. The following are the current immediate surrounding zoning and land uses: Zoning Land Use North A-1 SU/ M-3 SU (Unincorporated Kendall County) Agriculture/ Trans/Communication/Utility South Corneils Road R-4 (Westbury South Village PUD) Transportation/Agriculture East R-2, R-4, B-3 (Westbury East Village) Rob Roy Creek Agriculture/Undeveloped Residential/Tributary West A-1 (Unincorporated Kendall County) Residential/Agriculture x The proposed commercial solar farm will consist of approximately 11,592 modules installed over 40-acres of the existing farmland and enclosed within a fenced area, per the project narrative. However, the Site Layout Plan (Sheet C-200 B) prepared by Nexamp, date last revised December 10, 2023 states the area to be fenced is approximately 31.09-acres. Petitioner must verify the accurate area proposed for the solar farm use. x The system will include two (2) central inverters and 1-2 transformers, per the Decommissioning Plan. Additionally, the inverters and transformers will be located within the fence and mounted on a concrete pad. Please verify and the total number of proposed tracker motors. x The proposal also includes a Battery Energy Storage system. o Per Table 10-3-12(B) Permitted and Special Uses in the Unified Development Ordinance, battery energy storage systems as primary uses are only permitted in the manufacturing districts. This seems like an accessory use, but staff requests more information on the system. x The petitioner must provide the total amount of time proposed for the lease of the property to operate the proposed community solar farm. This includes any options to extend the lease term. Location on Site Section 10-4-13 Alternative Energy Use Standards in the City’s Unified Development Ordinance provides setbacks specific for solar farm uses in the A-1 Agricultural District. The following compares the yard setbacks required, excluding fences, for ground-mounted solar farm uses: Minimum Setback for Equipment to Property Line Proposed Setback Front (South) 100 feet ~1,698.6 feet Rear (North) 50 feet from nonresidential/100 feet from residential ~ 36 feet Side (East) 50 feet from nonresidential/100 feet from residential ~ 59 feet Side (West) 50 feet from nonresidential/100 feet from residential ~37 feet x The location of the solar panels meets the minimum front (south) yard setback for ground-mounted solar farm uses in the A-1 District. However, the solar panels appear to encroach into the required rear and interior side yards to the north, east, and west. o The minimum distances required for the rear and west is 50 feet, excluding the fence, and the east minimum setback is 100 feet, excluding the fence. o The Site Plan should be revised to reflect the accurate distances from the property lines to the proposed solar panels and/or fence line. x The Site Plan should also indicate the distance of the proposed nearest solar module to the nearest residential structure to the northwest along E. Beecher Road and to N. Bridge Street to the east. o It is noted within the project narrative there is a reference to the proposed solar system being over 1,000 feet from the nearest residential structure (from nearest existing residential structure to nearest proposed module. x Per Section10-4-13B.3 of the Unified Development Ordinance, a certified professional engineer shall certify that the foundation and design on the solar panels are within accepted professional standards, given local soil and climate conditions Height The maximum height for solar systems, equipment, and structures shall not exceed thirty feet (30’) in height when ground mounted, per Section 10-4-13B.6 in the Unified Development Ordinance. x The petitioner’s exhibit (Sheet C-500 B Standard Details) appears to indicate a maximum solar array height as approx. 20 feet at maximum tilt. x The petitioner’s exhibit (Sheet C-06 A Standard Details) appears to indicate a minimum solar array clearance as 3 feet. Glare/Lighting Solar panels shall be placed such that concentrated solar radiation or glare shall not be directed onto nearby properties or roadways. x The petitioner has submitted a glare study and analysis which concludes that there was no potential for glint or glare identified by the analysis. x It is also noted the solar modules will be treated with anti-reflective coating to minimize glare. x Staff requests the petitioner provides a viewshed from angles around the solar farm which illustrate how far away the panels will be from the public rights-of-way (Corneils Road), as well as from the residential land uses to the northwest. Noise The transformer is the greatest source of noise on the property. x It is noted the transformer will be centrally located within the fenced area on either side of the 100’ water course buffer. x Please verify the distance of the transformer to the nearest residences located to the northwest on E. Beecher Road. Fencing The petitioner has proposed an eight (8) foot tall, fixed knot farm fence to surround the perimeter of the solar farm with a 20-foot-wide double swinging vehicle access gate. As stated in Section 10-4-13B.9 of the Unified Development Ordinance, states that systems, equipment, and structures in solar farms shall be fully enclosed and secured by fence or wall with a height of eight (8) feet in height. x Staff recommends an 8’ tall, galvanized chain link fence with slats. x A Knox box and keys shall be provided to the City’s building department and Bristol Kendall Fire District (BKFD). Access Road The proposed site access is via Corneils Road through an existing gravel driveway. The plan proposes to connect a new 15’ wide gravel access drive into the fenced area with the solar system. x The path provides access to the equipment, however, no formal parking stalls are provided, as no buildings, employees are planned on the site except for the occasional mowing or maintenance visits. x Per Section 10-4-13B.5 of the Unified Development Ordinance, off street parking provided on-site shall be on a paved and gravel roads are not permitted. o Petitioner has provided details regarding the proposed material for the access road. o Staff defers to the City Public Works Director and City Engineer for comment on the road composition. Decommissioning Estimate/Plan The petitioner has provided a decommission plan. x In addition to the decommissioning plan narrative, a construction estimate for the life of the lease must be provided with a 3% annual inflation rate which must be reviewed and approved by the City Engineer. o It is noted the Petitioner stated that an Engineers Estiamte Maximum Lot Coverage Section 10-4-13B.2 of the Unified Development Ordinance states a solar farm use may occupy up to eighty- percent (80%) of a given parcel in this district. x As proposed, the solar farm will occupy approximately 42.5% (40-acres) of the overall existing 94 acres of existing farmland. x Is the petitioner proposing to consolidate all or some of the three (3) existing parcels? If so, which parcels and what is the total area occupied by the proposed solar use. If not, the petitioner must provide, on a parcel basis, the total area occupied by the proposed solar use. Signage Per Section 10-4-13B.9.a.(1) and (2) of the Yorkville Unified Development Ordinance, warning signs shall be provided at the entrance to the facility and along the perimeter of the solar farm. x Additionally, signs shall be less than four (4) square feet and made with letters and numbers at least three (3) inches in height and shall include the 911 address and an emergency phone number of the operator which shall be answered twenty-four (24) hours a day by a live operator. A nonemergency phone number for the operator shall also be displayed. x The petitioner has provided signage information. The emergency contact sign (8.5” x 11”) appears to be compliant with this regulation. Landscaping Defer to Engineering Comments related to landscaping. x It is noted that the petitioner will provide IDOT class 7 seed mix outside fenced areas and site- specific pollinator friendly seed mix within the fenced areas beneath the solar panels. Utilities Per Section 1-4-13B.4 of the Unified Development Ordinance, power and communication lines running between banks of solar panels and to electric substations or interconnections with buildings shall be buried underground. x The proposed community solar farm will not require public utilities such as water or sanitary sewer. The routing of the electrical infrastructure required to connect to the ComEd system includes electrical cables installed underground for the entire project with the exception of a series of overhead poles (approx. 4) for a wire connection near Corneils Road. Utility Service Provider The petitioner has provided evidence that the electric utility service has been notified of the owner’s intent to install an interconnected customer owned electricity generator. x A copy of an Interconnection Agreement, as prepared by ComEd dated 03/2/2023. Special Use Standards The petitioner has provided answers to each of the criteria in the application as well as providing an additional attachment to these standards. Easement Requirements An easement for City access to the solar field will be required in the event the project is abandoned and requires decommissioning by the City. Economic Development Committee Comments The City’s Economic Development Committee has provided guidance at their January 2, 2024 meeting to staff regarding the acceptable locations of solar fam developments within Yorkville which are as follows: x 1,000-foot buffer from x 1,000-foot buffer from Fox River x Maximum of five (5) solar farms citywide o These recommendations have not been approved, as an amendment to the Yorkville Unified Development Ordinance will be required. Staff is anticipating formal review of the proposed amendment will occur in March 2024. United City of Yorkville Chapter 4.

I have been represen�ng our community of approx. 205 homes, soon to grow to a total of approx. 290 homes. We are a targeted 55+ community in which the majority of home owners are re�red. The board of Directors is s�ll under the developer but preparing document to turn over to its community members within the next few months. It is my understanding that the P&Z and ul�mately City Council are considering annexa�on of a piece of land South of Corneils Rd. near Rt. 47. We are not opposed to this annexa�on but just want to raise some ques�ons, concerns and add a few comments. Is this the best and highest use for this land given its prime loca�on near Rt47? Did you consider the delta difference between R1 Residen�al or rezoning to Industrial, commercial vs going back to A1 Agriculture with a special use? Based on my readings A1 with special use would be a revenue loss to the city vs other land uses. Can the city con�nue to take these revenue losses? Our taxes are high to begin with. With 2 other solar farms already approved, this would be the 3rd solar farm if approved by city council with addi�onal proposals forthcoming. Before approving this, given a revenue loss in taxes for the city have you considered how the energy savings revenue generated by these farms will be distributed to its residents? Has there been thought on spli�ng revenue savings between Residen�al, Commercial or Industrial ci�zens of Yorkville? Page 2 of 2 Once again, I am a Senior on fixed income and live in a targeted 55+ community of approx. 290 homes when completed which maybe 1 or 2 years from now. There also exits other communi�es similar to ours within Yorkville. With taxes high and u�li�es on the rise, increases well above cost of living, can there be considera�on of the distribu�on of energy with ul�mate revenue saving to senior residents on fixed income, or at least have a priority op�on to sign up which would help offset the con�nuing rise in water rates due to the installa�on of Lake Michigan water source to Yorkville. Solar panels installed on residen�al roofs may not be an op�on given the expense beyond any rebates and the long payback period involved. In a memorandum dated March 1, 2024 from Kathleen Field Orr, City Atorney to Krys� Barksdale -Noble, Ms. Orr atempts to address the restric�on on number of Solar Farms allowed in Yorkville. Within the memo she states; “What is unclear is the basis for such restric�on. Is it because Solar Farms generate minimal real estate taxes? Because Solar Farms do not create much job opportunity? But, with regard to taxes or jobs, how are Solar Farms different from not-for-profit organiza�ons? Are all Solar Farms the same that a prohibi�on would apply to all? Would the restric�on apply to community solar farms?” Atorney Orr further states; “I would suggest that a study be made of restric�ons of the loca�on, size, and proximity to the residen�al communi�es to allow the city to prevent a prolifera�on of Solar Farms which could have nega�ve impact on the community.” Atorney Orr men�ons in her memorandum loss of taxes and nega�ve impact on the community. Can the city afford the revenue loss due to rezoning R1 to A1 special use or can you do the right thing to its residen�al residents by proper distribu�on of energy generated by Solar Farms and ul�mately dollar savings to Yorkville ci�zens, with priority to seniors on fixed income and help them offset the increase in water rates due to the influx of Lake Michigan Water. These important points should all be considered prior to approving the annexa�on of this and other parcel of land for similar use. Thank you for your �me and considera�on.

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.

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.

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.

ADM 2024-21 Majority Approval Rob Fredrickson Finance Name Department Summary Approval of an ordinance approving the third amendment to the amended intergovernmental agreement between the City and the Yorkville-Bristol Sanitary District (YBSD) regarding billing services performed by the City on behalf of the District. Background For over thirty years the City has performed utility billing and collection services for the Yorkville-Bristol Sanitary District. As compensation for these services, the District pays the City a monthly service fee equal to 5% of the funds collected on their behalf. The City currently bills and collects funds on behalf of the YBSD for all types of customer accounts – residential, commercial, industrial and governmental. However, recently the YBSD has notified staff that it intends to begin billing commercial, industrial and governmental customers directly effective May 1, 2024. Residential accounts (which encompass ~90% of all YBSD accounts) would continue to be billed and collected by the City on behalf of the YBSD. Even though the City would no longer facilitate the billing of non-residential accounts, the YBSD would still need meter read information from the City. In exchange for the meter read information, staff recommends charging the YBSD a fee of $0.50 per read, which mirrors the current agreement for meter reading services between the City and the Fox Metro Water Reclamation District. The attached intergovernmental agreement incorporates all the revisions noted in the preceding paragraph. Moreover, it extends the agreement between the City and the YBSD for a period of twenty (20) years through April 30, 2044, but includes a 90-day out clause that can be exercised upon written notice by either party, at any time. The revenue reduction from these billing changes is projected to be around $15,000 and has been incorporated into the UB Collection Fee (01-000-44-00-4405) line item in the Adopted FY 2025 Budget (FY 24 Proj - ~$200,000 v. FY 25 Adopted - $185,000). Recommendation Staff recommends the approval of the third amendment to the amended intergovernmental agreement between the City and the YBSD, and both documents have been attached for your review and consideration. In addition, a copy of the amended intergovernmental agreement has been sent to the YBSD for their review and is expected to be adopted at their upcoming board meeting.

This Amended Agreement shall terminate on April 30, 2044, or it may be terminated by either party upon 90 days written notice to the other party.” Section 3. All other terms contained in the Amended Agreement not amended by this Third Amendment shall remain in full force and effect. Section 4.

James Jensen Police Name Department Summary Consideration for approval of a five (5) year lease with Axon Enterprise, Inc. for the lease purchase of eight (8) less lethal Taser 10 conducted electrical weapons. Background Yorkville Police Officers who are exposed to combative, resisting or violent persons during the course of their duties shall take the necessary and reasonable actions to protect/defend themselves and other persons in accordance with Illinois Law and Yorkville Police Department policy. Any Officer’s decision to use any level of force must be justified under the parameters established by Graham v Connor, 490 U.S. 386 (1989). Currently, the Yorkville Police Department deploys three less lethal weapon options, each utilized for a specific purpose. One of the options and perhaps the most effective is the Taser X2 less lethal conducted electrical weapon. Our current batch of eight (8) Taser X2’s were purchased through a five (5) year lease agreement with Axon Enterprises Inc. on April 12, 2019. This lease agreement is set to expire on April 12, 2024. While these X2 Tasers are still active and in good working order we are being informed by Taser that these less lethal weapons are outside of there warranty coverage, will no longer be repaired and/or serviced by Taser and are past their 5-year useful life recommendation (Exhibit #1 & #2). Current Yorkville Police Department policy (Exhibit #3) mandates that officers on patrol carry two less lethal weapon options. One of the less lethal options must be a Taser, the second option is an ASP (expandable baton, impact weapon) or Oleoresin Capsicum (OC). Both are effective weapons if used in the right circumstances, however, both offer disadvantages which could be dangerous to the Officer. Taser, as a less lethal option, is the most effective and safest tool in the field. Please refer to the Taser 10 Product Card (Exhibit #4) for details. With the lease purchase of the newest Taser 10 technology we would see several benefits to include:  45-Foot Maximum Range: Taser 10 nearly doubles the range of our current Taser models creating more time and space to de-escalate and resolve conflict.  10 Single Probe Cartridges: 10 single probe cartridges provides officers with up to 9 opportunities to achieve an effective connection as compared to our current model with 2 opportunities.  Individually Targeted Probes: Intuitive single probe deployment allows users to choose their preferred target area with precision and accuracy regardless of distance to the subject. Our current Taser model fires two probes at one time, depending on the distance the spread of each probe could be limited and inaccurate. Memorandum To: City Council From: James Jensen, Police Chief CC: Bart Olson, City Administrator Date: April 23, 2024 Subject: Axon Taser 10 Lease Purchase  Audible and Visual Warning Alert: A bright pulsing light and loud alert sound emit whenever the weapon’s warning alert is initiated, allowing the user the opportunity to de- escalate without deploying cartridge probes. We propose to enter into a lease agreement with Axon Enterprises, Inc. (Exhibit #5) for the lease/purchase of eight (8) Taser 10 less lethal weapons and associated equipment for a five-year total price of $37,702.86. The first year payment of $30,000 was recently approved in our FY25 budget. Attorney Orr has reviewed and approved the Lease Agreement. The five-year breakdown of cost is as follows: Fiscal Year Annual Cost Year 1 (FY25) $30,000 Year 2 (FY26) $1,925.72 Year 3 (FY27) $1,925.72 Year 4 (FY28) $1,925.72 Year 5 (FY29) $1,925.72 Total Program Cost $37,702.86 Normally, we would present this information to the Public Safety Committee for review and approval prior to City Council. While general discussion did occur at the November 2, 2023 Public Safety meeting (Exhibit #6), approval was not requested or provided. Due to the timeliness in the ordering process and the extended lead time to get the product (4 months) we are asking direct City Council approval thereby bypassing Public Safety. It should be noted that I did speak with each Public Safety Committee member prior to this meeting, all were supportive of direct City Council approval. Recommendation Staff recommends entering into a purchasing/lease agreement with Axon Enterprise, Inc. for the lease of 8 Taser 10’s for a total price of $37,702.86. The FY25 budget, which was just approved, included $30,000 for year 1 payment. The remaining amount ($7,702.86) will be spread out over the remaining four (4) years and taken from the Police Department operating budget. Because this is a sole source purchase a super majority vote is required.

WHY WE HAVE IT AXON RECOMMENDS A 5-YEAR USEFUL LIFE FOR ALL TASER ENERGY WEAPONS Electronic components are directly and adversely affected by the use and usage environments that energy weapons are exposed to. Energy weapons that are past their 5-year useful life may not be effective in the field when needed in potentially dangerous situations. HOW YOU CAN STAY CURRENT We offer several plans to upgrade to new weapons and follow the 5-year guidelines. Contact your TASER sales representative or the customer service team if you have any questions. WHAT IT MEANS FOR YOU This recommendation is NOT an expiration date, but guidance only. 5-year useful life recommendations are common in the industry for other products like body armor. TASER X26P Released 2013 TASER X2 Released 2011 TASER 7 Released 2018 Exhibit #1 March 22, 2021 Five (5) Year Recommended Useful Life for TASER® Energy Weapons Axon Enterprise, Inc. recommends a 5-year useful life for all TASER energy weapons. As with all electronic devices, there is a multitude of factors that cause degradation of energy weapons over time. Specifically, there are several electronic components used in the assembly of a TASER energy weapon that are particularly affected by their serviceable life. While most of these components are rated to live much longer than our specified service life, they are directly and adversely affected by the use and usage environments that energy weapons are exposed to. The list below details these conditions along with a technical explanation of how they adversely impact the useful life: o Thermal Shock: Our energy weapons are exposed to extreme temperature variation. On a daily basis, an officer may be getting in and out of a heated or air conditioned vehicle and operating in the exact opposite environment. These regular, sudden changes of temperature stress the mechanical and electronic components inside the weapon, including the capacitors, microprocessors, battery contacts and high voltage coils. o Electromigration: The movement of ions in an electrical circuit physically builds up between opposing polarities at the microscopic level. This build up may impact the operation of integrated circuits and memory chips, and eventually impact connections on the printed circuit board itself. o Electrical Overstress: There are some components in a TASER energy weapon - such as the high voltage transformers and capacitors - that operate in or at the upper end of its normal operating range, which can shorten the service life of those components. o Humidity: Humidity (water in the atmosphere) can be absorbed by electronic components, such as the microprocessors and battery contacts, and have an adverse effect on their performance. o Galvanic Corrosion: Electronic components - particularly battery contacts, electrical connectors or other metallic terminations - can be affected by water and particulates in the air. This causes a chemical reaction that can build up over time and lead to component failure. A picture of the internal components of the TASER X26P can be seen below in Figure 1, which depicts several of the components that experience wear over time. Exhibit #2 March 22, 2021 Figure 1: Cutaway View of TASER X26P with Labeled Internal Components The main concern with using energy weapons that are past their 5-year useful life is the potential that they will not be effective in the field when needed in potentially dangerous situations. This may lead to injury to the officer and/or suspect or an escalation of use of force which may, in turn, lead to worker’s compensation claims and/or litigation against the agency. Axon, therefore, strongly recommends that energy weapons be removed from the field after 5 years of use. Additionally, Axon will not service energy weapons that are past their 5-year useful life and will not provide its product liability insurance certificate. YORKVILLE POLICE DEPARTMENT 305 – Department Authorized Less-Lethal SUBJECT: Department Authorized Less-Lethal EFFECTIVE DATE: October 08, 2019 DISTRIBUTION: All Personnel PURPOSE The purpose of this Policy is to establish the procedures for use of less-lethal weapons authorized for use by the department. Members of Special Response Teams may use weapons other than authorized by this Policy only during the performance of their Special Response Team duties and only as authorized by the Special Response Team and in accordance with the policies and procedures of that team. POLICY It is the policy of the Yorkville Police Department to use only that level of response to resistance/aggression that reasonably appears necessary to control or otherwise subdue violent or potentially violent individuals. DEFINITIONS A. Less-Lethal Weapons: A weapon, which by its design is not intended to cause death or great bodily harm. B. Conducted Electrical Weapon (CEW): Weapons designed to disrupt a subject's central nervous system by means of deploying battery powered electrical energy sufficient to cause uncontrolled muscle contractions and override an individual's voluntary motor responses. C. Weapon of Necessity: An item an officer uses as a weapon that is not issued or approved as a weapon by the department. Weapons of necessity can be used in extreme, rapidly evolving circumstances where there is an immediate need for the officer to defend himself/herself or another to prevent injury or death. D. TASER X2: The TASER® X2™ CEW is a 2-shot weapon manufactured by TASER International, Inc. The X2 CEW uses 2 replaceable Smart™ cartridges containing compressed nitrogen to deploy two small probes that are attached to the X2 CEW by insulated conductive wires. The X2 CEW deploys Smart cartridges one at a time. It is possible to apply energy beyond the initial burst to a deployed cartridge without deploying the remaining cartridges. It also is possible to apply a Warning Arc display or drive- stun without deploying any of the cartridges loaded in the CEW. E. Cartridge: A replaceable vessel that generally contains compressed gas, probes, connecting wires and confetti tags. Exhibit #3 F. Confetti Tags/AFID: (Anti-Felon Identification Tracking System) Small identifying cards expelled from the TASER cartridge when probes are discharged. Each confetti tag contains a serial number unique to the specific cartridge used. G. Drive Stun: A use of the TASER wherein direct contact of the TASER is made with the skin of a person. A drive stun is effective as pain compliance technique only. H. Conducted Electrical Weapon (CEW): A weapon designed primarily to discharge electrical charges into a subject that will cause involuntary muscle contractions and override the subject’s voluntary motor responses. I. Laser Painting: The TASER X2 is equipped with top and bottom lasers that are aligned to the approximate trajectories of the top and bottom probes. The laser is activated and pointed in the direction of the subject in an effort to obtain voluntary compliance. J. Probe Deployment: Occurs when the TASER is fired. Compressed nitrogen gas propels two darts on wires, sending an electronic signal via the wires which causes motor skill disruption. K. Securing Under Power: A technique used to secure a subject during the activation cycle, as instructed through training. L. Spark Demonstration/ARC Display: A demonstration of the TASER's capability to conduct electricity in an effort to obtain voluntary compliance. M. Spark Test: An approximate one second test that is conducted with the cartridges removed, of the TASER’s ability to conduct electricity, to verify that the TASER is functioning properly. O. Kinetic Impact Projectile: A projectile that does not contain an explosive charge and is designed to transfer the kinetic energy of the projectile onto the target, greatly minimizing the chance of penetrating human skin. The forced delivered by a kinetic energy projectile is similar to that delivered by a baton strike. TASER Applications: DEFINED ARC Display/Spark Demonstration: A non-contact demonstration of the TASER ability to discharge electricity. Pressing and holding the ARC switch displays a Warning Arc discharge across the front of the X2. The purpose of the display is to convince the subject to comply with a lawful or der and avoid the TASER being deployed in the Drive Stun or Probe mode. Drive Stun: Contact is made by pressing the front of the TASER into the body of a subject resisting lawful order and pressing the ARC switch on the TASER. The Drive Stun causes significant localized pain in the area touched by the TASER but does not have a significant effect on the central nervous system. The Drive Stun is primarily a pain compliance option. It does not incapacitate a subject but may assist in taking a subject into custody. Probe: The TASER is most effective when the cartridge is fired, and the probes make direct contact with the subject. Proper application will result in temporary immobilization of the subject and provide the officer a “window of opportunity” in which to take the subject safely into custody. Optimum range for probe deployment is 7 feet to 15 feet with a 35-foot maximum distance depending on the cartridge. Deploying a cartridge up to its maximum allowable distance, is not prohibited but, is discouraged, as the probe spread increases at greater distances. INDEX I. Less-Lethal Weapons II.

Members who are exposed to combative, resisting, or violent persons during the course of their duties shall take the necessary and reasonable action to protect/defend themselves and other persons in accordance with Illinois Law and Yorkville Police Department Policy. Any officer's decision to use any level of force must be justifiable under the parameters established by Graham v Connor, 490 U.S. 386 (1989). 2. Only weapons and ammunition authorized by the Department shall be used by personnel in the performance of their responsibilities. Department authorized less- lethal weapons shall include those outlined in Section VII - Approved Less-Lethal Weapons: 1. Conducted Electrical Weapon (CEW); 2. Oleoresin Capsicum Spray (OC); and 3. Impact Weapons 1. "ASP" Expandable Baton 2. Weapon of Necessity, as defined by this Policy. 3. Kinetic Impact Projectile (Less Lethal Shotgun) 3. All personnel authorized to carry less-lethal weapons shall be issued copies of and receive instruction on this Policy and Policy 303 - Response to Resistance, before being authorized to carry any less-lethal weapon. Such instruction will be documented in the officer's training proficiency file. 4. All uniformed personnel will carry 1) a Taser and 2) an additional less-lethal weapon of their choice, each being from a separate category as outlined in Section VII - Approved Less-Lethal Weapons, unless authorized for less, or unless otherwise approved by the Chief of Police, or his/her designee. 5. Less-Lethal weapons will not be carried by Department personnel until successful completion of a training course, to include demonstration of proficiency. 6. The Chief of Police may authorize the use of less-lethal weapons by a qualified Community Service Officer. 7. All personnel who carry and use any authorized less-lethal weapons, other than an CEW and Kinetic Energy Weapon, are required to demonstrate proficiency through attendance at in-service refresher training conducted by a certified instructor at least biennially. This training shall include training on authorized weaponless control techniques. All personnel who are authorized to carry and use CEWs are required to demonstrate proficiency through attending documented refresher training, conducted by a certified instructor, at least annually. 8. If an employee is unable to successfully demonstrate proficiency with any less-lethal weapon, the instructor conducting the training shall advise the Chief of Police, or his/her designee, through the chain of command of the deficiency. The Chief of Police, or his/her designee shall determine the appropriate course of action. Such action may include, but shall not be limited to: 1. Remedial training; 2. Reassignment to a position not requiring use of the less-lethal weapon; and/or 3. Removing the Employee's authorization to carry the less-lethal weapon. 9. All employees carrying and/or using less-lethal weapon(s) shall follow the guidelines in Policy 303 - Response to Resistance regarding appropriate medical aid and reporting requirements. 10. The department training coordinator shall ensure that all Conducted Electrical Weapon (CEW) training includes de-escalation techniques. II. CONDUCTED ELECTRICAL WEAPON (CEW)(TASER) 1. Authorized Users 1. The Yorkville Police Department shall own and maintain all Department authorized TASERs. 2. The TASER International Brand, Model X2, black in color, is the only CEW authorized for use by Yorkville Police Department Officers in the performance of their duties. Officers assigned to multi-jurisdictional task forces may use other CEWs authorized by the unit or team provided they have successfully completed training in their use. 3. Only those who have satisfactorily completed the agency’s approved training course shall be authorized to carry a TASER. Members will be required to demonstrate their understanding and proficiency in the use of the TASER. If a member is unable to show proficiency with the TASER, he/she will be afforded the opportunity to repeat the training or have specialized training designed to assist him/her in establishing the necessary skills needed to carry the weapon. Agency members will complete an annual retraining by a certified trainer on the use of a TASER and demonstrate proficiency in the deployment of the TASER. 4. Officers may carry the Department owned TASER and accompanying equipment only with approval from the Training Coordinator or designee. 5. The only cartridges authorized to be utilized with the TASER will be the original manufacturer cartridges provided by the Department. 6. All repairs to a TASER shall be completed by an authorized vendor. 2. Weapon Readiness 1. When the TASER is carried as part of a uniformed officer’s equipment or plain clothes (e.g. detectives), the TASER shall be carried on the side opposite from the duty weapon utilizing a departmental approved holster. 2. Only departmental authorized holsters (X2 Right-Handed or Left-Handed) may be used. The holster is to be worn on the duty belt opposite the duty weapon, however, subject to the inspection and approval of a certified TASER instructor it may be attached to the outer vest cover utilizing an optional Modular Lightweight Load- Carrying Equipment (MOLLE). The department does not provide the MOLLE system and the officer would be responsible for the purchase of a MOLLE if so desired. 3. Each TASER that is placed into service on a shift will include a TASER CAM HD Recorder and rechargeable battery. It will be the responsibility of the authorized trained personnel to ensure that the battery is fully charged, and the camera is operational prior to deploying the intermediate weapon for duty. 4. The officer shall carry the TASER: i) With the safety engaged, ii) With both cartridges installed on the front of the TASER, and iii) In a holster provided by the Department. 5. TASERs will be signed out by the officer who will log their name, badge number, TASER number and condition. The TASER will be turned in at the end of the officer’s tour of duty and logged in. At the beginning of every shift, officers shall inspect their assigned TASER to ensure proper functioning. The daily inspection shall include: i) A spark test, ii) A visual inspection of the TASER/cartridges, iii) A visual inspection of the battery capacity reading. iv) The officer will log this inspection on the TASER Sign-out Sheet (Attachment B). 6. TASERS that fail the spark test, have 20% or less remaining battery capacity or have cartridges with any visible damage shall be removed from service and the TASER instructor notified. 7. Officers shall handle, secure, and protect the TASER as if it were a loaded firearm. Officers shall point the TASER in a safe direction, with the safety engaged, during loading, unloading or when handling other than during a deployment. 3. Verbal and Visual Warnings 1. Unless it would otherwise endanger officer safety or it is impractical due to circumstances, a verbal announcement of the intended use of the TASER should precede the application of a TASER in order to: i) Provide the individual with a reasonable opportunity to voluntarily comply. ii) Warn other officers and individuals that a TASER may be deployed. 2. If after a verbal warning, an individual continues to express an unwillingness to voluntarily comply with an officer’s lawful order and it appears both reasonable and practical under the circumstance, the officer may, but is not required, to display the electrical arc/spark demonstration or laser in further attempt to gain compliance prior to the application of the TASER. The aiming laser should never be intentionally directed into the eyes of another as it may permanently impair their vision. 3. The fact that a verbal and/or other warning was given, or reasons it was not given, shall be documented in the police report. 4. TASER Deployment Considerations 1. Use of the TASER, as with all Response to Resistance, must be objectively reasonable and necessary when considering the totality of the circumstances. 2. Officers may use the TASER when circumstances known to the individual officer at the time indicate that the application of the TASER is reasonable to subdue or control: i) A violent or physically resisting subject, or ii) A potentially violent or physically resisting subject if: (1) The subject has verbally or physically demonstrated an intention to resist, and (2) The officer has given the subject a verbal warning of the intended use of the TASER, followed by a reasonable opportunity to voluntarily comply, and (3) Other available options reasonably appear ineffective or would present a great danger to the officer, the subject or others. 3. When time and circumstances permit, officers should have a deadly response to resistance cover officer when deploying the TASER. 4. The TASER device may be deployed against an animal as part of a plan to deal with a potentially dangerous animal, such as a dog, if the animal reasonably appears to pose an imminent threat to human safety and alternative methods are not reasonably available or would likely be ineffective. 5. Restrictions on TASER Use 1. Although not absolutely prohibited, officers shall consider the unique circumstances involved prior to applying the TASER to any of the following individuals: i) Pregnant females ii) Elderly individuals or obvious juveniles iii) Individuals who have been recently sprayed with alcohol-based Pepper Spray or who are otherwise in close proximity to any combustible material (gasoline, natural gas, propane, etc). iv) Passively resisting subjects v) When the subject is holding a firearm vi) When a person is handcuffed, unless that person is actively resisting, exhibiting aggression, or to prevent that person from harming him/herself or another. vii) Officers should consider the location and environment of the subject. Officers shall avoid using the TASER in cases when the subject is in an elevated position (i.e. roof, stairwell) where a fall may cause substantial injury or death. viii) Subjects in bodies of water (e.g. lakes, pools); the subject may not be able to prevent himself from drowning. 2. The TASER shall not be used against subjects in physical control of a motor vehicle, including ATVs, motorcycles, bicycles, or scooters, in motion unless exigent circumstances exist. 3. The TASER shall not be used to torture, psychologically torment, elicit statements or inflict undue pain on any individual. 4. Officers should never hold a firearm and the TASER at the same time unless deadly force is justified. 5. Officers are not authorized to carry department TASER devices while off-duty. Officers shall ensure that TASER devices are secured while in their homes, vehicles, or any other area under their control, in a manner that will keep the device inaccessible to others. 6. TASER Deployment 1. Prior to deploying a TASER, the deploying officer shall visually and physically confirm that the weapon selected is in fact the TASER and not a firearm. 2. Officers should give a warning, when practical, to the subject and other officers before firing the TASER at the subject. 3. Officers should generally not intentionally activate more than one TASER against the same person at a time. 4. The TASER can be used in four modes: i) Laser sight activation ii) Spark demonstration/ARC Display iii) Drive Stun iv) Probe deployment 5. In preparation of deployment, the TASER shall be pointed in a safe direction, taken off safe, and then aimed. Lower center mass should be the primary target while center mass of the chest or the legs are the secondary targets. Officers will not intentionally target the head, neck, groin, chest/breast, or anteri or pelvis areas of subjects they intend to deploy the TASER against unless deadly force is justified. It should be noted however, that deploying officers cannot predict the sudden movements of actively aggressive or resisting subjects that may result in t he unintentional probe deployment to such sensitive areas. 6. When encountering subjects wearing heavy or loose clothing the upper body and the legs should be considered as a target. 7. Use of the Drive Stun is discouraged except in situations where the Probe deployment is not possible, and the immediate application of the Drive Stun will bring a subject displaying active or aggressive resistance safely under control. Multiple Drive Stuns are discouraged and must be justified and articulated in the police report. 8. Officers should deploy the TASER for the standard five second cycle and shall not purposely deploy the TASER for more than five seconds per cycle. After the initial deployment, officers shall reassess the situation and deploy the TASER for additional cycles as necessary. Officers should consider other force options should the TASER be ineffective. 9. Potential Causes of Reduced or No Effectiveness i. Loose or Thick Clothing. If the probes lodge in clothing and are too far away from the attacker, TASER effectiveness is reduced and can be eliminated. ii. Miss or Single Probe Hit. The electrical current must pass between a positive probe and a negative one (top and bottom probe) in a completed and maintained circuit. If one probe misses, a second cartridge may be deployed, to complete the electrical circuit. Also, using the X2 TASER in the drive-stun mode may complete the circuit between the single probe and the TASER electrode. iii. Low Nerve or Muscle Mass. If the probes impact in an area where there is very little muscle mass (e.g., the side of the rib cage), the effectiveness can be significantly diminished. iv. Limited Probe Spread. Probe spreads of less than 4 inches (including drive-stun) may result in little or no incapacitation effect and become primarily a pain compliance option. v. Wires Break. If a wire breaks (e.g., during a struggle), the current will not flow to the probes and an additional deployment may be required. Deploying the second cartridge or drive-stun may still be available. 10. Back up officers shall attempt to handcuff the person against whom the TASER is being deployed during the TASER deployment cycle. 11. Any deployment of the TASER will be reported to the shift supervisor as soon as feasible. 7. Medical Treatment/Evidence Collection 1. The TASER probes shall be removed from the subject after being restrained following the procedures outlined in training. When practical, the darts should be removed by a person of the same sex. Only medical personnel should remove probes that have penetrated a person’s head, neck, breast, or genital area. 2. If possible, photograph the affected area after the darts are removed in accordance with guidelines in Section H of this policy. 3. Used TASER probes shall be handled in accordance with Policy Blood Borne Pathogens Plan. TASER probes that have struck a person’s body shall be considered a biological hazard. 4. After a discharge, the air cartridge, wire leads, probes, and a minimum of two AFID tags shall be placed in evidence and retained as evidence pending the ensuing inspection and/or investigation. The sharp end of the probes should be inverted into the portals of the fired cartridge. Tape should be placed over the portals to ensure the probe is in the cartridge. The probes are to be treated as a biohazard and shall be packaged and handled as such. The evidence shall be placed in a biohazard container that is suitable for sharp materials, i.e. a rigid puncture- resistant container such as an arson can, marked “biohazard” and sealed. 5. The TASER CAM Recorder video downloaded from the TASER and any photographs shall be transferred to appropriate storage media and entered into evidence. 6. If any item is not recoverable, the circumstances must be documented in the report. 7. Subjects who have been struck by a TASER probe or who have been subject to the electric discharge of the device shall be checked for injuries and monitored for potential health risks. Additionally, any such individual who falls under any of the following categories should, as soon as practicable, be examined by paramedics or other qualified medical personal: i) The subject is suspected of being under the influence of a controlled substance and/or alcohol. ii) The subject may be pregnant. iii) The subject reasonably appears to need medical attention. iv) The TASER probes are lodged in a sensitive area. v) The subject requests medical treatment. 8. Subjects who exhibit extreme agitation, violent irrational behavior accompanied by profuse sweating, extraordinary strength beyond physical characteristics, imperviousness to pain or who require a physical encounter with multiple officers to bring under control (“Excited Delirium”) may be at an increased risk of sudden death and should examined by qualified medical personnel as soon as practical. 9. Subjects who have been exposed to prolonged application (more than 15 seconds) should be transported to an emergency department for evaluation. 10. All subjects who have been the subject of a TASER deployment shall be monitored for a period of time with focus on symptoms of physical distress. Any person who appears to be having any form of physical distress followed by the deployment shall be transported to the hospital for medical examination. It should be noted that studies indicate that persons who suffer from excited delirium may not be immediately impacted and the onset of the difficulty may occur a period of time after the police control event. 11. If an individual refuses medical attention, such refusal should be witnessed by another officer and/or medical personnel and shall be fully documented in the police report. 12. All subjects should be regularly monitored while in police custody following TASER device activation. Records personnel monitoring cameras/audio located in the holding facility should be notified of deployment of the TASER device if the person is in custody. 8. Documentation 1. Officers shall notify the shift supervisor as soon as practical after each intentional or unintentional discharge, with the exception of function tests and training exercises. The deployment of a TASER is a response to resistance that must be reported and investigated in accordance with Policy 303 - Response to Resistance in the following circumstances: 1. Any TASER cartridge deployment whether or not the probes make contact with the subject or penetrate the skin 2. Any TASER Drive Stun deployment 2. Officers will complete the Response to Resistance Reporting Checklist (see Section IV.). 3. A supervisor shall respond to the scene of every discharge, to include Drive Stun, which resulted in contact with the subject and conduct a review of the deployment to ensure compliance with agency policy. 1. The supervisor shall complete the SUPERVISORY TASER® CEW USE REPORT form (Attachment C) and forward it to the TASER Officer/Instructor for review, with a copy forwarded to the Training Coordinator. 4. Photographs of the affected area shall be taken following the removal of the probes from the subject to document any injury. When the Drive stun method has been used, photographs are extremely important due to the increased potential for this method to cause scarring. 5. A scale in the field of view should be used to determine the exact size of any injury. 6. All photographs and videotapes will be submitted and entered into evidence. 7. Note the presence or absence of any injuries on the police report. 8. Accidental discharges of the TASER cartridge will be documented in memo form to the Chief of Police or his designee. 9. Downloading Data The data port on the TASER stores the time and date the TASER was fired, and video/audio records are stored in the TASER CAM HD recorder. 1. When a TASER is deployed the TASER shall be placed out of service until the data is downloaded by the Training Coordinator or his designee. 2. The Training Coordinator or his designee shall download the data information prior to sending any TASER to the factory for repairs/maintenance. 3. Only the Training Coordinator or his designee may download the information from the device. 4. Supervisors may request a download at any time. Any officer issued such an order will immediately respond to this request as instructed by the supervisor. 5. The Training Coordinator or designated in house certified TASER instructor shall prepare an annual report on the product reliability, recommended training needs and/or policy modifications related to Response to Resistance, which will include a section on the use of the TASER. III. OLEORESIN CAPSICUM (OC) 1. Guidelines for Certification 1. Members must successfully complete an OC training course provided by a certified instructor as authorized by the Department prior to carrying OC. 2. Only employees who are properly trained in the use of OC shall be permitted to carry it. 3. Properly trained employees shall be authorized to carry OC as a less-lethal force alternative. 4. Employees are required to complete training biennially to be authorized to carry OC. If a member is unable to show proficiency with OC, he/she will be afforded the opportunity to repeat the training or have specialized training designed to assist him/her in establishing the necessary skills to carry the weapon. 5. The Defensive Tactics Instructor shall oversee the OC training program, approve course curriculums, and ensure that training and certification records are kept. 2. Carrying OC 1. Members shall be limited to carrying only Department issued OC spray. No other OC shall be carried or used by any member at any time. 2. Authorized members shall carry OC spray canisters in secure holsters. 3. It shall be the responsibility of the individual member to maintain control of his/her OC spray. 3. Guidelines for use of OC 1. Members, who find it reasonable and necessary to use OC shall, if practical, alert the offender of your intention to use OC spray directly into the face of the offender. 2. Members shall cease the use of OC as soon as the offender stops all aggressive/resistance actions or when the effects of the spray become apparent. OC shall never be used for any unlawful purpose. The improper use of OC spray, excessive, unnecessary or unreasonable, will not be tolerated. 3. It shall be the responsibility of Supervisors to monitor the use of OC to ensure Department policy is followed. 4. The use of OC is prohibited on a handcuffed/secured prisoner, absent overtly assaultive behavior that cannot be reasonably dealt with in any other less intrusive fashion. 4. Securing/Transporting an Arrestee Exposed to OC 1. Upon being sprayed with OC, the person should be ordered to a standing or prone handcuffing position. The subject is to be handcuffed in accordance with Department policy, assured that he/she will receive medical treatment if necessary, and advised that the effects of the spray will dissipate. The arrestee shall be handcuffed using extreme caution since OC is not fail-safe. 2. Any subject who loses consciousness during any physical altercation with police should receive immediate medical attention, including CPR, if necessary. 3. If practical, Officers should wait a reasonable period of time after contamination before transporting the arrestee to allow for natural evaporation of OC and to reduce the potential for the transporting officer from being overcome by spray through association with the arrestee. 5. Decontamination 1. Decontamination may be rendered to individuals who have been sprayed with OC. The appropriate level of assistance includes: 1. Allow as much fresh air to the person as possible; 2. Flushing exposed areas with cool water; 3. Washing with soap and water; and 4. Medical treatment when necessary. 2. Universal precautions will apply when rendering decontamination and personal protective equipment will be utilized when appropriate. 6. Use of OC Spray on Animals 1. Officers are authorized to use OC spray on animals under the following circumstances: 1. When routine capture techniques have failed, and the animal is dangerous, aggressive or uncontrollable; 2. When the animal is attacking and/or threatening to attack the officer or another person, or other animal; and/or 3. When the supervisor, after assessing the situation, commands or authorized the action. 2. When practical, animals shall not be released until the effects of OC spray have dissipated and the animal is controllable. 3. Standard decontamination procedures, including access to water and proper ventilation, should be made available to sprayed animals. 7. Use of OC spray Against an Officer 1. A citizen’s use of OC spray against an officer shall be deemed aggravated battery and the use of force necessary to overcome that battery may be used. 8. Care and Maintenance of OC Spray 1. After any use of an OC canister, it shall be promptly exchanged by the officer for replacement with the Defensive Tactics Instructor. 2. Routine OC canister maintenance shall include inspections of the canister for signs of erosion, leakage, dirt in the nozzle, fullness of canister contents, other damage to the unit and the expiration date written on the canister or 3 years after the manufacturer's date. 9. Post-Application Procedure 1. After any use of an OC canister, it shall be promptly exchanged by the officer for replacement with the Defensive Tactics Instructor. 2. Routine OC canister maintenance shall include inspections of the canister for signs of erosion, leakage, dirt in the nozzle, fullness of canister contents, other damage to the unit and the expiration date written on the canister or 3 years after the manufacturer's date. IV. IMPACT WEAPONS 1. Officers shall carry the ASP in an approved holder. 2. It shall be the responsibility of the individual officer to maintain control of his/her ASP. 3. Guidelines for Certification/Training 1. Members must successfully complete an ASP training course conducted by a certified instructor as authorized by the Department prior to being authorized to carry the weapon. 2. It shall be the responsibility of the Defensive Tactics Instructor to ensure that biannual training be conducted in the use of the ASP. 1. If an officer is unable to show proficiency with the baton, he/she shall be afforded the opportunity to repeat the training or have specialized training designed to assist him/her in establishing the necessary skills needed to carry the weapon. 3. An officer that has taken extended leave or suffered an illness or injury that could affect his/her use of the ASP, shall be required to be re-certified before returning to enforcement duties. 4. The Defensive Tactics Instructor, or designee, shall ensure that training and certification records are maintained. 4. Guidelines for Use of ASP 1. If a suspect resists arrest in an actively aggressive manner, or attacks an officer or another person, or attempts to flee or defeat a lawful arrest, officers are permitted to use the ASP in accordance with the training and target areas given by certified instructors concerning non-lethal use of force situations. 2. A very important aspect of both training and techniques concerns verbal commands to the aggressive/resistant subject. Profanity and specific threats should be avoided; they give the impression that we are unprofessional, and the situation is out of control. LOUD, CLEAR, and REPETITIVE commands that communicate exactly what orders we want the subject to comply with should be used whenever practical. 3. Officers shall cease the use of the ASP as soon as the offender stops all aggressive/resistance actions. The ASP will only be used as a compliance and control measure and shall never be used for any unlawful purpose. The improper use of the ASP including excessive, unnecessary, or unreasonable use will not be tolerated. 4. A handcuffed or restrained person shall not be struck with the ASP. 5. If an officer faces a lethal force situation and the ASP is the most reasonably available weapon at his/her disposal, the strikes shall not be limited to the target areas taught in the non-lethal force impact weapons training, i.e. deadly force may be met with deadly force. 6. It shall be the responsibility of Supervisors to monitor the use of the ASP to ensure Department policy is followed. 5. Medical Assistance 1. All persons subject to an ASP strike are to be placed under observation. This should be documented in your report narrative. 2. If after an individual is struck by the ASP, an Officer observes the individual is clearly injured or needs medical attention shall call EMS immediately. 3. Whenever medical attention is obtained for a subject who has been struck by the ASP, the Shift Supervisor will ensure that the appropriate case, investigative, memo and other necessary reports are completed expediently. 4. Once a member of the Yorkville Police Department has relinquished control of a person that has been struck, the Officer is no longer responsible for medical attention of the individual. However, other personnel assuming control of the subject shall be informed that the individual was stuck 5. EMS should evaluate any person that requests medical attention. 6. Reporting Response to Resistance. 1. Officers will report immediately the use of the ASP to the Shift Supervisor. 2. It will be the responsibility of each Yorkville Police Officer to make a detailed report regarding the response to resistance as prescribed in our policies and procedures. 7. Maintenance 1. All ASP and other batons approved for use by the Department shall be maintained in factory condition and will not be altered or modified in any way without prior approval from the Defensive Tactics Instructor. 1. Officers shall be responsible for the care and cleaning of their batons. 2. It is recommended that officers clean and lubricate their ASP regularly. Any unsafe weapons shall be removed from service. V. KINETIC IMPACT PROJECTILE GUIDELINES 1. Deployment and Use a. Only department approved kinetic impact munitions shall be carried and deployed. Approved munitions may be used to compel an individual to cease his/her actions when such munitions present a reasonable option b. Officers are not required or compelled to use approved munitions in lieu of other reasonable tactics if the involved officer determines that deployment of these munitions cannot be done safely. The safety of hostages, innocent persons and officers takes priority over the safety of subjects engaged in criminal or suicidal behavior. c. Circumstances appropriate for deployment include, but are not limited to, situations in which: 1. The suspect is armed with a weapon and the tactical circumstances allow for the safe application of approved munitions. 2. The suspect has made credible threats to harm him/herself or others. 3. The suspect is engaged in riotous behavior or is throwing rocks, bottles, or other dangerous projectiles at people and/or officers. 4. There is probable cause to believe that the suspect has already committed a crime of violence and is refusing to comply with lawful orders. 2. Deployment Considerations a. Before discharging projectiles, the officer should consider the following factors: 1. Distance and angle to target 2. Type of munitions deployed 3. Type and thickness of subject’s clothing 4. The subject’s proximity to others 5. The location of the subject 6. Whether the subject’s actions dictate the need for an immediate response and the use of control devices appears appropriate. b. A verbal warning of the intended use of the device should precede its application unless it would otherwise endanger the safety of officers or when it is not practicable due to the circumstances. The purpose of the warning is to give the individual a reasonable opportunity to voluntarily comply and to warn other officers and individuals that the device is being deployed. c. Officers should keep in mind the manufacturer’s recommendations and their training regarding effective distances and target areas. However, officers are not restricted solely to use according to manufacturer recommendations. Each situation must be evaluated on the totality of circumstances at the time of the deployment. d. The need to immediately incapacitate the subject must be weighed against the risk of causing serious injury or death. The head, neck, groin, anterior pelvis, or back should not be intentionally targeted, except when the officer reasonably believes the suspect poses an imminent threat of serious bodily injury or death to the officer or others. 3. Safety Procedures a. Shotguns specifically designated for use with kinetic energy projectiles will be specially marked in a manner that makes them readily identifiable as such. Shotguns will only be carried in approved, orange in color, soft cases that readily identify them as less lethal weapons systems. b. Officers will inspect the shotgun and projectiles at the beginning of each shift to ensure that the shotgun is in proper working order and the projectiles are of the approved type and appear to be free from defects. c. Two shotguns will be deployed on each patrol shift and assigned to two different patrol officers as assigned by the supervisor. c. When it is not deployed, the shotgun will be unloaded and properly and securely stored in the vehicle. When deploying the kinetic impact projectile shotgun, the officer shall visually inspect the kinetic impact projectiles to ensure that conventional ammunition is not being loaded into the shotgun. Shotguns will be carried with an empty chamber, four (4) rounds loaded in the magazine tube and six (6) rounds in the equipped side saddle, for a total of ten (10) rounds. VI. WEAPONS OF NECESSITY 1. The use of Department-authorized handcuffs, knives and flashlights as weapons is not acceptable unless circumstances indicate that their use is necessary to prevent death or great bodily harm to an officer or others. 2. The use of unauthorized firearms is not acceptable unless circumstances indicate their use is necessary to prevent death or great bodily harm to an officer or others. 3. Employees are prohibited from carrying or using blackjacks, saps, weighted gloves, and metal knuckles. 4. Choke holds or carotid holds which are designed to reduce or stop the flow of blood to the brain should not be used as a control Technique unless it is necessary to prevent death or great bodily harm to an officer or others. VII. DUTY TO INTERVENE A. An Officer shall, if the officer has a reasonable opportunity, intervene to prevent or stop another peace officer in his or her presence from using any unauthorized force or force that exceeds the degree of force permitted, if any, without regard for chain of command. An officer who observes another employee use force that exceeds the degree of force permitted by law, should promptly (in no event more than 5 days after the incident) report these observations to a supervisor, including the following details: 1. Date, time, and place of occurrence; 2. Identity, if known, and description of participants; and 3. Intervention actions taken and whether they were successful. A. Officers must notify supervisors whenever they observe unreasonable, unauthorized, or excessive force, anytime a choke hold is applied, and when any of the following has occurred or is alleged: 1. The application of force caused a visible injury. 2. The application of force would lead a reasonable officer to conclude that the individual may have experienced more than momentary discomfort. 3. The individual subjected to the force complained of injury or continuing pain. 4. The individual indicates intent to pursue litigation. 5. Any application of the conducted energy device (e.g., TASER), kinetic impact projectile, or control device. 6. Any application of a restraint device other than handcuffs, shackles, or belly chains. 7. The individual subjected to the force was rendered unconscious. 8. An individual was struck or kicked. VIII. DUTY TO RENDER MEDICAL AID A. Officers must, as soon as reasonably practical, determine if a person is injured, whether as a result of a use of force or otherwise, and render medical aid and assistance consistent with training and request emergency medical assistance if necessary. Rendering medical aid and assistance includes, but is not limited to: 1. performing emergency life-saving procedures such as cardiopulmonary resuscitation or the administration of an automated external defibrillator; and 2. the making of arrangements for the carrying, of such person to a physician, surgeon, or hospital for medical or surgical treatment if it is apparent that treatment is necessary, or if such carrying is requested by the injured person. An officer does not violate this duty if the failure to render aid is due to circumstances such as lack of appropriate specialized training, lack of resources or equipment, or if it is unsafe or impracticable to render aid. B. If any department member, other than an Officer, observes the individual is clearly injured after any application of response to resistance; the individual complains of being injured, or the member reasonably believes the person is injured or needs medical attention, once it is safe and appropriate to do so the member shall: 1. Render appropriate first aid within the limits of the member’s training and available equipment. 2. Immediately summon medical assistance from rescue personnel. B. Both Officers and department members shall further: 1. Notify the on-duty Supervisor. 2. Complete the appropriate incident reports regarding the injury and the circumstances. 3. If possible, photograph the injured area. IX. SUPERVISOR RESPONSE A supervisor shall respond to the following: 1. Any Kinetic Impact Projectile system incidents where an individual has been hit and will ensure all, medical assistance and notifications and reports are completed as required. 2. Any calls where they reasonably believe there is a likelihood the conducted electrical weapon (e.g., Taser) may be used. A supervisor should respond to all incidents where the conducted electrical weapon was activated and review each incident where a person has been exposed to an activation of the conducted electrical weapon. X. REMOVAL OF UNSAFE WEAPONS 1. All weapons carried in the performance of duty shall be kept in proper working condition. Less than lethal weapons shall be inspected during training by the Defensive Tactics Instructor. 2. Weapons shall also be inspected by shift supervisors for cleanliness and periodically checked by the Defensive Tactics Instructor to ensure: 1. All safety mechanisms are in working order. 2. There is no obvious damage or evidence of misuse. 3. Any weapon found to be unsafe will be immediately removed from service and the on-duty supervisor shall be notified. The on-duty supervisor shall notify the Range Master of any dedicated less-lethal shotgun taken out of service and the Defensive Tactics Instructor of any other less-lethal weapon taken out of service so that prompt action can be taken to service and/or replace the weapon.

Recently, Riverview Ford informed P&R staff that one (1) new Ford F-150 truck will be available to purchase in late April. The quote is attached. The truck purchase amount is $40,031.03. Price also includes all associated purchase fees, registration and license plates. This new Parks truck is expected to be used for one of the potential two (2), new full-time Parks staff members that have been requested in the City FY 25 budget. Recommendation Since P&R is able to receive the new truck on May 1st and the purchase quote is similar to the Ford F-150 truck that P&R purchased last year, staff seeks City Council approval to place an order for one (1) new Parks & Recreation 2024 Ford 150 from Riverview Ford in total amount of $40,031.03 Memorandum To: Yorkville City Council From: Tim Evans, Director of Parks and Recreation CC: Bart Olson, City Administrator Date: April 11, 2024 Subject: Parks & Recreation Truck Purchase Approval Account Number FY 2024 FY 2025 FY 2026 FY 2027 FY 2028 FY 2029 Description Projected Proposed Projected Projected Projected Projected Totals 25-225-60-00-6070 Vehicles $ 38,995 $ 94,000 $ 184,000 $ 52,000 $ 117,000 $ 155,000 $ 640,995 Pickup Truck 38,995 52,000 52,000 52,000 52,000 - 246,995 Pickup Truck - 42,000 52,000 - - - 94,000 Recreation Van - - 38,000 - - 45,000 83,000 Pickup Truck - - 42,000 - - - 42,000 Dump Truck - - - - 65,000 - 65,000 Utility Truck - - - - - 55,000 55,000 Utility Truck - - - - - 55,000 55,000 25-225-60-00-6060 Equipment $ 107,913 $ 219,000 $ 115,000 $ 135,000 $ 77,000 $ 41,000 $ 694,913 Mower 13,359 15,000 15,000 16,000 16,000 16,000 91,359 Scissor Lift 9,650 - - - - - 9,650 Generator 2,398 - - - - - 2,398 Backhoe 13,090 - - - - - 13,090 Skid Steer - 55,000 - - - - 55,000 Watering Trailer and Tank - 15,000 - - - - 15,000 Safety Barriers - 78,000 - - - - 78,000 Gator - - - 12,000 - - 12,000 Forrester Attachment - 31,000 - - - - 31,000 Wing Mower - - - 68,000 - - 68,000 Fork Truck - - 25,000 - - - 25,000 Miscellaneous Recreation Equipment 8,000 15,000 15,000 15,000 15,000 15,000 83,000 Utility Brush Mower - - - 8,000 - - 8,000 Replace Trash Cans 13,500 10,000 10,000 10,000 10,000 10,000 63,500 Trailer 8,127 - - 6,000 - - 14,127 Paint Sprayer - - - - 20,000 - 20,000 Mower 33,199 - - - 16,000 - 49,199 Preschool Cabinets 1,500 - - - - - 1,500 Lighting Detectors - - 50,000 - - - 50,000 Storage Containers 4,740 - - - - - 4,740 Traffic Cones 350 - - - - - 350 Park & Recreation Capital (25-225) - Vehicles / Equipment / Park Improvements Summary Account Number FY 2024 FY 2025 FY 2026 FY 2027 FY 2028 FY 2029 Description Projected Proposed Projected Projected Projected Projected Totals 25-225-60-00-6010 Park Improvements $ 417,332 $ 186,000 $ 160,000 $ 220,000 $ 185,000 $ 560,000 $ 1,728,332 Replace Turf - Baseball Outfields at Br - 15,000 15,000 15,000 15,000 15,000 75,000 Playgrounds - Rotary Park - 100,000 - - - - 100,000 Playgrounds - Sleezer Park 76,092 - - - - - 76,092 Playgrounds - Kiwanis Park 73,726 - - - - - 73,726 Playgrounds - Countryside Park 27,266 - - - - - 27,266 Playgrounds - Rice Park 80,751 - - - - - 80,751 Playgrounds - Prestwick Park 62,763 - - - - - 62,763 Riverfront Concrete Project - 25,000 - - - - 25,000 Playground Installation Carry Over from - 46,000 - - - - 46,000 Playgrounds - Cannonball Park - - 105,000 - - - 105,000 Playgrounds - Sunflower Park - - - 85,000 - - 85,000 Grande Reserve - Park C - - 40,000 - - - 40,000 Playgrounds - Bridge Park - - - 70,000 - - 70,000 Playgrounds - Raintree A Park - - - - 70,000 - 70,000 Playgrounds - Stepping Stones Park - - - - 100,000 - 100,000 Playgrounds - Bristol Bay Park - - - 50,000 - - 50,000 Playgrounds - Gilbert Park - - - - - 60,000 60,000 Playgrounds - Bristol Station Park - - - - - 125,000 125,000 Grande Reserve - Park F - - - - - 120,000 120,000 Grande Reserve - Park G - - - - - 120,000 120,000 Grande Reserve - Park H - - - - - 120,000 120,000 Countryside Shelter 38,000 - - - - - 38,000 Countryside Installation 43,734 - - - - - 43,734 Kiwanis Installation 15,000 - - - - - 15,000 Grand Totals $ 564,240 $ 499,000 $ 459,000 $ 407,000 $ 379,000 $ 756,000 $ 3,064,240 All purchases existing Vehicles and Equipment, unless noted otherwise (highlighted in blue).

Erin Willrett Administration Name Department Summary Approval of a collective bargaining agreement memorandum of understanding (MOU) between the City and the Fraternal Order of Police governing the patrol and sergeant officers employed by the City during the period from May 1, 2023 – April 30, 2027. Background The last collective bargaining agreement between the City and the Officers employees was approved in 2022 for four years (May 1, 2023 – April 30, 2027). The city was asked to consider a wage increase from the Union based on inflation and comparable communities. When doing so, the City was able to negotiate other items in the CBA as it relates to wages, lateral hires and the health insurance cap. In general, the bulk of the discussions were changes in wages. The city looked at 5 – 10 communities and compared starting wages, primarily, because we were concerned about the ability to recruit new officers successfully and retain recently hired employees. The data showed that the city was on the lower end of the starting wage rate and staff would recommend an adjustment outlined in the MOU from 3% annual increases to 5.5% beginning on May 1, 2024, and then 5% in FY25 and FY26 until the agreement ends. The City also negotiated the ability to hire a lateral officer at “four years” instead of “two years” which was previously in the CBA. This should help us with our lateral hire flexibility. The last item the city negotiated in the MOU relates to the health insurance cap. The City negotiated to remove the 10% employee contribution cap from one fiscal year to the next. This has not been an issue since FY17 where the City had a 12% increase in insurance. This cap was burdensome to negotiate, administer and explain to employee when it did occur. Recommendation Staff recommends approval of the MOU between the City and the Fraternal Order of Police Labor Council governing officers during the period from May 1, 2023 – April 30, 2027.

James Jensen Police Name Department Summary Adoption of the 2024 Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan which identifies mitigation goals and actions to reduce or eliminate long-term risk to people and property in the United City of Yorkville from the impacts of future hazards and disaster. Background The Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan evaluates damage to life and property from natural and man-made hazards that have impacted Kendall County and the United City of Yorkville and identifies projects and activities to reduce these damages before an event occurs. This plan fulfills federal planning requirements of the Stafford Act as amended by the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 and the Disaster Recovery and Reform Act. The main benefit of updating this plan is that the participating jurisdictions can remain or become eligible to apply for and receive federal hazard mitigation funds to implement the mitigation actions identified in the plan. In order to access certain types of non-emergency disaster assistance, jurisdictions must be a participant of a current, FEMA-approved Hazard Mitigation Plan. The final step in the update process is having each of the participating jurisdictions adopt the plan by formal resolution. This is a FEMA requirement to access hazard mitigation funds. These funds, made available through FEMA’s Hazard Mitigation Assistance grant program, can help provide local government entities with the opportunity to complete mitigation projects that would not otherwise be financially possible. There are three primary Hazard Mitigation Assistance funding programs: Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities (BRIC), Flood Mitigation Assistance (FMA), and Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP). The United City of Yorkville has been a part of FEMA-approved Hazard Mitigation Plans dating back to 2011. Previously, these plans were developed with the involvement of key City officials. Most recently, City Administrator Bart Olson, Public Works Director Eric Dhuse and I participated in the most current plan development, identifying Hazard Mitigation projects for the City. The six (6) projects identified in the plan (Exhibit A) are attached for your review. There is no downside to adopting this plan (Exhibit B). It ensures our jurisdiction is eligible to apply for mitigation project funding through IEMA/FEMA in the future but does not obligate us to fund or even complete the projects and activities listed in the plan. Recommendation Staff recommends City Council approval of the Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi- Hazard Mitigation Plan.

Committee by American Environmental Corporation Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Introduction 1 1.0 INTRODUCTION Each year natural hazards (i.e., severe thunderstorms, tornadoes, severe winter storms, flooding, etc.) cause damage to property and threaten the lives and health of the residents of Kendall County. Since 1973, Kendall County has been included in seven major federally-declared disasters and six emergency declarations. Figure I-1 identifies each federal declaration including its declaration number, the year the disaster was declared, type of declaration, and the natural hazard that triggered the declaration. Since 2010, the County has been included in nine state disaster proclamations.

Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Introduction 2 While natural hazards cannot be avoided, their impacts can be reduced through effective hazard mitigation planning. This prevention-related concept of emergency management often receives the least amount of attention, yet it is one of the most important steps in creating a hazard-resistant community. What is hazard mitigation planning? Hazard mitigation planning is the process of determining how to reduce or eliminate the loss of life and property damage resulting from natural and man-made hazards. This process helps the County and participating jurisdictions reduce their risk from these hazards by identifying vulnerabilities and developing mitigation actions to lessen and sometimes even eliminate the effects of a hazard. The results of this process are documented in an all hazards mitigation plan. Why update an all mitigation plan? By updating and adopting an all-hazards mitigation plan, participating jurisdictions become eligible to apply for and receive federal hazard mitigation funds to implement mitigation actions identified in the plan. These funds can help provide local government entities with the opportunity to complete mitigation projects and activities that would not otherwise be financially possible. The federal hazard mitigation funds are made available through the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000, an amendment to the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act, which provides federal aid for mitigation projects, but only if the local government entity has a Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) approved hazard mitigation plan. How is this plan different from other emergency plans? An all hazards mitigation plan is aimed at identifying projects and activities that can be conducted prior to a natural or man-made disaster, unlike other emergency plans which provide direction on how to respond to a disaster after it occurs. This is the first time that Kendall County has updated its hazard mitigation plan since the original plan was prepared in 2011. This update describes in detail the actions that can be taken to help reduce or eliminate damages caused by specific types of natural and man-made hazards. 1.1 PARTICIPATING JURISDICTIONS Recognizing the benefits of having an updated all hazards mitigation plan, the Kendall County Board authorized the update of the Kendall County Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan (thereto referred to as the Plan). The County then invited all the local government entities within the County to participate. Figure I-3 identifies the participating jurisdictions represented in the Plan update who sought Plan approval. While all of the municipalities within the County were invited and encouraged to participate in the Plan update, Millbrook and Millington chose not to engage in the process and therefore are not included as participating jurisdictions in the Plan update. Small portions of Aurora, Joliet, Minooka, Plainfield, and Sandwich are located in Kendall County. Minooka participated in the 2020 update of the Grundy County Hazard Mitigation Plan. Joliet and Plainfield participated in the 2021 update of the Will County Hazard Mitigation Plan while Sandwich participated in the 2021 update of the DeKalb County Hazard Mitigation Plan. Aurora is participating in the 2023 Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Introduction 3 update of the Kane County Hazard Mitigation Plan. Therefore, the risk and/or vulnerability of these municipalities are not discussed in this Plan.

Located at the end of this section, Figure I-4 provides a location map of the County and the participating municipalities while Figures I-5 and I-6 identify the boundaries of the census tracts located in the County. Figures I-7, I-8, I-9, and I-10 identify the boundaries of the townships, schools, fire protection districts, and park district. The County is bounded to the north by Kane County, to the northeast by DuPage County, to the east by Will County, to the south by Grundy County, and to the west by LaSalle and DeKalb Counties. The United City of Yorkville is the county seat. The northern two-thirds of Kendall County is situated in the Bloomington Ridged Plain subsection of the Till Plains section of the Central Lowland Provence while the southern one-third is located in the Kankakee Till Plain subsection of the Till Plains section of the Central Lowland Provence. The topography is nearly level to gently sloping and has a relatively low relief on the glacial lake plains and more rolling topography along the major stream valleys and on glacial moraines. The numerous glacial moraines in the area tend to form elongated ridges tending from northwest to southeast. Soils classified as prime farmland comprise approximately 78% of the total acreage in Kendall County. The northern and western portions of the County are drained by the Fox watershed while the southern and most of the east portion of the County are encompassed but the Illinois River Valley watershed. A small portion of Kendall County along its eastern border with Will County is drained by the Des Plaines watershed. According to the Multi-Resolution Land Characteristics (MRLC) Consortium, in 2021 approximately 84.8% of the County’s land cover was vegetation, including developed open spaces, cultivated crop land, pasture/hay, grassland, and deciduous/evergreen/mixed forest while 13.3% Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Introduction 4 of the County’s land cover was considered developed with 6.3% impervious surfaces. Between 2011 and 2021 approximately 3.2 square miles or approximately 1% of the land cover in the County changed with 0.55 square miles of development and 0.79 square miles of impervious surfaces gained. Figure I-11 illustrates the changes by land cover type. Source: Multi-Resolution Land Characteristics Consortium’s National Landcover Database. Kendall County has traditionally been known for its fertile farmland. According to the 2017 Census of Agriculture, there were 313 farms in Kendall County occupying almost 67% (137,899 acres) of the total land area in the County. The major crops include corn, soybeans, vegetables, melons, potatoes, sweet potatoes, nursery, greenhouse, floriculture, and sod. Major livestock includes cattle and calves, poultry, and horses and ponies. The County ranks 8th in the State for nursey, greenhouse, floriculture and sod, 11th in the State for vegetables, and 71st in the State for grains (corn and soybeans). In terms of livestock, the County ranks 38th for poultry and eggs and 76th for horses and ponies. Kendall County ranks 66th in crop cash receipts and 78th in livestock cash receipts. The largest employment sectors in Kendall County are health care and social assistance, manufacturing, retail trade, and educational services according to the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity. According to the Kendall County Economic Development Department, major employers in the County include Oswego CUSD #308, Yorkville CUSD #115, Walmart, Performance Food, Menards, Wrigley, Kendall County, Hormann LLC, Plano CUSD #88, United City of Yorkville. Fox Valley Molding, and Radiac Abrasives. According to U.S. Cluster Mapping the top traded economic cluster in Kendall County is distribution and electronic commerce. Figure I-12, located at the end of this section, provides demographic and socio-economic data for the County and participating townships and municipalities. One of the seven participating Figure I-11 Kendall County Land Cover Data: 2011 to 2021 Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Introduction 5 municipalities meets the definition of an Economically Disadvantaged Rural Community (EDRC) while neither of the townships meet the definition. FEMA defines an EDRC as a community of 3,000 or fewer individuals whose residents have an average per capita annual income not exceeding 80 percent of the U.S. per capita income based on best available data. Figure I-13, also located at the end of this section, provides additional demographic information by census tract with the U.S. Council on Environmental Quality Climate and Economic Justice Screening Tool (CEJST) and the CDC/ATSDR Social Vulnerability Index (SVI) and overall level of vulnerability. CEJST is a geospatial mapping tool that identifies census tracts across the nation where communities are faced with significant burdens, which are grouped into eight categories: climate change, energy, health, housing, legacy pollution, transportation, water and wastewater, and workforce development. Communities are considered disadvantaged if they are in census tracts that meet the thresholds for at least one of these categories. In Kendall County, none of the participating jurisdictions are considered disadvantaged. The SVI is a database that uses U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey data to rank census tracts and counties on 16 social factors within four themes: Socioeconomic Status, Household Characteristics, Racial & Ethnic Minority Status, and Housing Type & Transportation. The goal of the SVI is to help emergency response planners and public health officials identify, map, and plan support for communities that will most likely need support before, during, and after a public health emergency. The rankings generated by the SVI describe a county’s or census tract’s relative vulnerability among all other U.S. counties and census tracts. The SVI data used in this document is based on 2020 census tract information. Rankings are based on percentiles ranging from 0 to 1, with higher values indicating greater vulnerability. Each ranking is assigned to one of four levels of vulnerability: Low (0 – 0.2499), Low to Medium (0.2500 – 0.4999), Medium to High (0.5000 – 0.7499), and High (0.7500 – 1). A community with an SVI of 0.6000 or greater is considered an underserved and/or disadvantaged community. In Kendall County, none of the participating jurisdictions that meet this definition. Figures I-14, I-15, and I-16 provides basic demographic information about the size and populations served by the participating school districts, fire protection districts, and park district. 1.3 LAND USE AND DEVELOPMENT TRENDS Population growth and economic development are two major factors that trigger changes in land use. Between 2010 and 2020 the population of Kendall County increased by 14.9% from 114,736 to 131,869. This is a continuation of a larger trend. U.S. Census Bureau records indicates that between 1900 and 2010, the population of Kendall County increased by 1000% from 11,467 to 114,736. Between 2010 and 2020, four of the seven participating municipalities experienced population increases: Yorkville by 27.3%, Oswego by 13.9%, Montgomery by 9.9%, and Plano by 9.1%. During the same time period, the remaining three participating municipalities experienced modest populations decreases: Lisbon by 4.9%, Newark by1.9%, and Plattville by 9.1%.

Land use in Kendall County is primarily agricultural. As discussed in the previous section, approximately 67% of the land within the County is used for farming practices. Agriculture is and will continue to be an important industry within the County. According to the Kendall County Planning, Building, and Zoning Director, there has been no large- scale development in unincorporated Kendall County since the original Plan. In terms of small residential development (i.e., new home subdivisions, multi-family use housing, etc.) in unincorporated Kendall County, it occurred prior to the development of original Plan in 2011 and there have been no additional developments in the unincorporated areas. According to County and municipal officials, changes in development since the original Plan have primarily been contained to Montgomery, Oswego, Plano, and Yorkville. According to the Montgomery Economic Development Manager, there are two sites along Orchard Road that are or will soon be developed. Karis has broken ground on a 500,000 square foot building for Ravago, a Belgium-based plastics resin distributor. Ravago is anticipating a future 300,000 square foot expansion to this building with room to build an additional 300,000 square foot building as needed. There are an additional 100 acres north of the Ravago project for additional industrial tenants. Meanwhile, another site for potential development is a 112-acre property immediately adjacent to Montgomery on the west. The Village anticipates this property will be annexed for commercial or industrial uses in the next five years. According to the Oswego Director of Public Works, residential growth has been booming in the Village. Between 1990 and 2020, the population grew from 3,900 to 34,600. Local officials are planning for a projected population of 60,000 by 2050. At this time, the development of approximately 5,000 residential units is moving forward. Much of this development has converted open space and agricultural land into single-family homes and town homes along Wolf’s Crossing Road on the east side of the Village. Properties north and south of this 2.5 mile-long corridor of Wolf’s Crossing Road will be built out over the next few years. Another area of residential growth is occurring along Orchard Road on the west side of Oswego. Development includes not only single-family and town homes, it also includes restaurants, a golf dome, and a cricket pitch. The cricket pitch will be opened in the fall of 2024, with locker rooms and ultimately a stadium that would seat 24,000 planned by 2028. Oswego has four business parks – the 300-acre Kendall Point Business Center, the 130-acre Stonehill Business Park, the Highland Business Center, and Farmington Lakes Office Campus – that provide commercial and light industrial development. These business parks have been built Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Introduction 8 out over the past several years, with space still available for development in the coming years. There is a new mixed use residential and commercial development, The Reserve at Hudson Crossing, being developed in the downtown along the riverfront. A six-story apartment building with attached parking was completed in 2021 with another planned for construction, likely within the next five years. According to Plano’s Building, Planning, and Zoning Department, over the past few years there has been some smaller residential and commercial development along US Route 34/Walter Payton Memorial Highway in central Plano. Small residential development in the City over the last 10 years has consisted primarily of build outs of existing subdivisions. In particular the Lakewood Springs subdivision, one on the east side of the City north of US Route 34/Walter Payton Memorial Highway, and one in the northwest portion of the City near the intersection of North Center Street and Little Rock Road. A new crossing of the Fox River was opened in 2023 that allows north- south traffic to cross the River on Eldamain Road. As a result, local officials anticipate commercial and industrial development along its portion of Eldamain Road in the next few years. According to Yorkville’s Community Development Director, the City is a largely residential community; however there are designated areas where industrial and manufacturing is permitted. The North Eldamain Corridor is a new industrial development west of the City and north of the Burlington Northern Santa Fe railway. In this development, Bright Farms is constructing an indoor hydroponic lettuce growing facility to be completed in 2024, an industrial data center is planned, and a solar farm is being discussed. In terms of small residential development, 40 subdivisions have been entitled since 2000; however the economic downturn of 2008 brought a significant reduction to all residential development. Since the recession, the City has seen steady growth and build out in many of these subdivisions, primarily on the southeast and northeast edges of the City, but no new subdivisions have been entitled since the original Plan was completed. There are no other large-scale economic development initiatives underway in the County. Substantial changes in land use (from forested and agricultural land to residential, commercial, and industrial) are not anticipated within the County in the immediate future. No sizeable increases in commercial or industrial developments are expected within the next five years.

Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Planning Process 19 2.0 PLANNING PROCESS The Kendall Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan (the Plan) was updated through the Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional All Hazards Mitigation Planning Committee (Planning Committee). The Plan was prepared to comply with the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 and incorporates the nine recommended tasks for developing or updating a local hazard mitigation plan as outlined in Federal Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA) Local Mitigation Planning Handbook. Figure PP-1 provides a brief description of the process utilized to prepare this Plan. Figure PP-1 Description of Planning Process Tasks Description Task One: Building the Planning Team The Planning Committee was reformed with broad representation and specific expertise to assist the County and the Consultant in updating the Plan. Task Two: Outreach Strategy Early and ongoing public involvement activities were conducted throughout the Plan’s development to ensure the stakeholders and public was given every opportunity to participate and provide input. Task Three: Risk Assessment The Consultant identified and profiled the natural and man-made hazards that have impacted the County and conducted vulnerability analyses to evaluate the risk to each participating jurisdiction. Task Four: Capability Assessment Participating jurisdictions have a unique set of capabilities and resources available to accomplish hazard mitigation. Capabilities that include planning and regulatory, administrative and technical, financial, and education and outreach were identified and cataloged to determine the existing capabilities of each participant related to hazard and loss reduction/prevention. Task Five: Mitigation Strategy After reviewing existing plans and completing the risk assessment, the Consultant assisted the Planning Committee in updating the goals and objectives for the Plan. The participating jurisdictions were then asked to identify mitigation actions that had been started and/or completed since the previous Plan was adopted. In addition, they were asked to identify any new mitigation actions based on the results of the risk assessment. The new mitigation actions were then analyzed, categorized, and prioritized. Task Six: Plan Maintenance and Update The method and schedule for monitoring, evaluating, and updating the Plan was reviewed and discussed with the participating jurisdictions. The Plan update will be monitored and evaluated by a Plan Maintenance Subcommittee on an annual basis and updated again in five years. Task Seven: Review and Adopt the Plan The draft Plan update summarized the results of Tasks Two through Seven. The Plan was reviewed by the participants and a public forum was held to give the public an additional opportunity to provide input. Comments received were incorporated into the draft Plan update and submitted to the Illinois Emergency Management Agency and Office of Homeland Security (IEMA-OHS) and FEMA for review and approval. Comments received from IEMA-OHS and FEMA were incorporated into the final Plan update. The final Plan update was then submitted to the County and participating jurisdictions for adoption. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Planning Process 20 The Plan update and development was led at the staff level by Roger Bonuchi, the Kendall County Emergency Management Agency (EMA) Director, and Tracy Page, the Kendall County EMA Deputy Director. American Environmental Corp. (AEC) an environmental consulting firm, with experience in hazard mitigation, risk assessment and public involvement, was employed to guide the County and participating jurisdictions through the planning process. Participation in the planning process, especially by the County and local government representatives, was crucial to the update and development of the Plan. To ensure that all participating jurisdictions took part in the planning process, participation requirements were established. Each participating jurisdiction agreed to satisfy the following requirements in order to be included in the Plan update. All of the participating jurisdictions met the participation requirements.  Attend at least one Planning Committee meeting.  Complete a capability assessment identifying existing capabilities and resources (i.e., plans, policies, ordinances studies, reports, maps, etc.) available to accomplish hazard mitigation.  Identify/submit a list of critical infrastructure and facilities.  Review the risk assessment and provide additional information on events and damages when available.  Participate in the update of the mitigation goals and project prioritization methodology.  Provide information on any mitigation actions started and/or completed since the adoption of the original Plan.  Identify and submit a list of new mitigation actions.  Review and comment on the draft Plan update.  Formally adopt the Plan update.  Where applicable, incorporate the Plan update into existing planning efforts.  Participate in the Plan update maintenance. 2.1 MITIGATION ADVISORY COMMITTEE As previously mentioned, at the start of the planning process, the Kendall County Multi- Jurisdictional All Hazard Mitigation Planning Committee was reformed to update the hazard mitigation plan. The Committee included representatives from each participating jurisdiction, as well as agriculture, cultural resources, education, emergency services, planning, recreation, and social services. Figure PP-2 details the entities represented on the Planning Committee and the individuals who attended on their behalf. The Planning Committee was chaired by the Kendall County EMA. Additional technical expertise was provided by the staff at the Illinois Emergency Management Agency and the Illinois Department of Natural Resources Office of Water Resources.

The following mission statement was approved by the Committee. “The mission of the Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Planning Committee is to prepare a mitigation plan that: 1) documents the risks associated with the natural and man-made hazards that impact the County and 2) identifies projects and activities that mitigate the risk to people, structures, facilities, and systems that provide support to the County, its residents and economy, as well as community lifelines that enable the continuous operation of critical government and business functions.” Planning Committee Meetings The Planning Committee met four times between January 2023 and February 2024. Figure PP-2 identifies the representatives by jurisdiction present at each meeting. Appendices A and B contain copies of the attendance sheets and meeting minutes for each meeting. The purpose of each meeting, including the topics discussed, is provided below. First Planning Committee Meeting – January 24, 2023 The purpose of this meeting was to explain the planning process to the Planning Committee members and give them a brief overview of the planning process including what mitigation is, what a hazards mitigation plan is and why the Plan needs to be updated. A discussion regarding the hazards to be included in the Plan update was conducted and an electronic survey was sent out following the meeting asking Planning Committee members whether dam failures should be included in the Plan update. Based on the responses received, the Planning Committee chose not to include dam failures. The Planning Committee did not feel dam failures posed a significant impact on the County and therefore decided not to include them in the update. Information needed from each participant was discussed and representatives for the County and the participating jurisdictions were asked to complete the forms entitled “Capability Assessment Worksheet,” “Critical Facilities & Infrastructure,” “Identification of Severe Weather Shelters” and “Drinking Water Supply Worksheet” and return them at the next meeting.

A “Hazard Events Questionnaire” was distributed to solicit information on hazard events. Community participation was also discussed. The County and participating jurisdictions were asked to make information available on the planning process at their offices and in their communities. A “Citizen Questionnaire,” was also distributed electronically to Committee members prior to the meeting for distribution to their constituents to gauge the public’s perception about the hazards that impact the County. Finally, drafts of a mission statement and updated mitigation goals were presented for review. Second Planning Committee Meeting – April 18, 2023 At the second Committee meeting portions of the updated natural and man-made hazard risk assessment section were presented for review. Following the review of the risk assessment, the Committee members participated in an exercise to calculate the Risk Priority Index (RPI) for the County and participating jurisdictions. The RPI can assist participants in determining which hazards present the highest risks and therefore which ones to focus on when formulating mitigation projects and activities. The Committee then discussed the draft mission statement and updated mitigation goals. The mission statement and mitigation goals were then reviewed, discussed, and finalized with no changes. Next, mitigation actions were defined, and examples were discussed. As part of the Plan update, individual mitigation action lists will be created for each participating jurisdiction. Committee members were asked to identify any mitigation projects and activities their jurisdictions had started and/or completed since the original Plan was completed in 2011. Ideas for new potential mitigation projects and activities were presented. Representatives for the County and the participating jurisdictions were asked to complete the forms entitled “Existing Mitigation Project/Activity Status” and “New Hazard Mitigation Projects” and return them at the next meeting. Third Planning Committee Meeting – July 11, 2023 The purpose of the third Committee meeting was to discuss the vulnerability analysis for select natural hazards and the preliminary results of the RPI exercise. The Committee members then discussed vulnerable community assets and completed the form entitled “Assets Vulnerability Survey” which will be used in the vulnerability analyses. The concept of community lifelines was also discussed. Community lifelines enable the continuous operation of critical government and business functions essential to human health and safety or economic security. Whi le the concept was developed to support emergency response and planning, FEMA has begun applying it to all phases of emergency management, including mitigation. Community lifelines will be included in most project descriptions to create a clear connection to the concept. Next, an explanation of what a mitigation action prioritization methodology is and how it fits into the Mitigation Strategy was provided. The Committee reviewed the updated mitigation project prioritization methodology and approved it with no changes. Finally, a discussion on how the mitigation projects and activities identified by the participating jurisdictions will be presented in the Plan update was provided. Participants were encouraged to provide their mitigation project lists prior to the 4th meeting when draft lists will be distributed for review. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Planning Process 24 Fourth Planning Committee Meeting – October 24, 2023 At the fourth Committee meeting, members reviewed the draft jurisdiction-specific mitigation action tables which identified and prioritized the new and existing mitigation projects and activities provided by the participants. Members were given the opportunity to add additional projects and activities to their tables. The public forum and adoption process were then discussed, and a date for the public forum was set. Finally, the plan maintenance and update requirements were discussed. The Plan update will be monitored and evaluated on an annual basis by a Plan Maintenance Subcommittee which will be made up of the participating jurisdictions, and key members of the Committee. The Plan must be reviewed, revised, and resubmitted to IEMA and FEMA at least once every five years. Fifth Planning Committee Meeting – February 20, 2024 At this Planning Committee meeting the public was provided an opportunity to ask questions and provide comments on the draft Plan update. 2.2 OUTREACH STRATEGY To engage the public in the planning process, a comprehensive outreach strategy was developed. The strategy was structured to engage the public, including underserved communities and vulnerable populations, in a two-way dialogue, encouraging the exchange of information throughout the planning process. A mix of public involvement techniques and practices were utilized to:  disseminate information;  identify additional useful information about natural hazard occurrences and impacts;  assure that interested residents would be involved throughout the Plan update’s development; and  cultivate ownership of the Plan update, thus increasing the likelihood of adoption by the participating jurisdictions. The dialogue with the public followed proven risk communication principles to help assure clarity and avoid overstating or understating the impacts posed by the natural hazards identified in the Plan update. The following public involvement techniques and practices were applied to give the public an opportunity to access information and participate in the dialogue at their level of interest and availability. Citizen Questionnaire A citizen questionnaire was developed to gather facts and gauge public perceptions about natural hazards that affect Kendall County. The questionnaire was distributed electronically to the Committee members who were encouraged to make it available to their residents and the general public. A copy of the questionnaire as well as any social media posts related to the questionnaire are contained in Appendix C. A total of 197 questionnaires were completed and returned to the Committee. Questionnaires were completed by residents in each participating jurisdiction. These responses provide useful Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Planning Process 25 information to decision makers as they determine how best to disseminate information on natural hazards and safeguard the public. Additionally, these responses identify the types of projects and activities the public is most likely to support. The following provides a summary of the results.  Respondents felt that severe summer storms were the most frequently encountered natural hazard in Kendall County followed by extreme cold and severe winter storms. However, compiled weather records indicate that flood events, in fact, occur more frequently than severe winter storms or extreme cold.  The most effective means of communication identified by respondents to disseminate information about natural hazards were social media and the Internet, followed by the mailings and television. Fact sheets/brochures disseminated via fire departments/law enforcement, as well as radio communications also received some support among respondents.  In terms of the most needed mitigation projects and activities, the following categories received the strongest support:  maintain power during storms by burying power lines, trimming trees and/or purchasing backup generators (80%);  maintain roadway passages during snowstorms and heavy rains (62%);  install/maintain sirens and other alert systems (58%);  flood or drainage protection (55%); and  retrofit critical infrastructure (51%). FAQ Fact Sheet A “Frequently Asked Questions” fact sheet was disseminated to help explain what a natural hazards mitigation plan is and briefly describe the planning process. The fact sheet was made available to each participating jurisdiction to provide to their constituents. A copy of the fact sheet is contained in Appendix D. News Releases/Articles & Web/Social Media Posts News releases were prepared and submitted to local media outlets and posted to the TCRPC Facebook, Twitter, and web pages prior to each Committee meeting. The releases announced the purpose of the meetings and how the public could become involved in the Plan update’s development. Appendix E contains a list of the media outlets that received the news releases while copies of the releases, Facebook, web posts, and any news articles published can be found in Appendix F. Planning Committee Meetings All of the meetings conducted by the Planning Committee were open to the public and publicized in advance to encourage public participation. At the end of each meeting, time was set aside for public comment. In addition, Committee members were available throughout the planning process to talk with residents and local government officials and were responsible for relaying any concerns and questions voiced by the public to the Committee. Interested individuals from the public who attended the Planning Committee meetings were provided handout materials and encouraged though not required to provide their names and/or sign the attendance sheets. Copies of the attendance sheets are included in Appendix A. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Planning Process 26 Public Forum The final meeting of the Committee, held on February 20, 2024 was conducted as an open-house public forum. The open-house format was chosen for this forum instead of a hearing to provide greater flexibility for residents who wished to participate. Residents were able to come and go at any time during the forum, reducing conflicts with business, family, and social obligations. In conjunction with the public forum, the draft Plan update was made available for review and comment on the Kendall County website. A two-page handout summarizing the planning process and a link to a comment survey that could be used to provide feedback on the draft Plan update were also posted on the website. At the forum, residents could review a draft of the Plan update; meet with representatives from the County, the participating jurisdictions, and the Consultant; ask any questions; and provide verbal and/or written comments on the draft Plan update. Individuals attending the public forum were provided with a two-page handout summarizing the planning process and a comment sheet that could be used to provide feedback on the draft Plan update. Appendices G and H contain copies of these materials. Public Comment Period After the public forum, the updated draft Plans were made available for public review and comment through March 5, 2024 at the Kendall County Public Safety Center and on the County’s website. A two-page handout summarizing the planning process and a link to a comment survey that could be used to provide feedback on the draft Plan update were also posted on the website. Appendix H contains a copy of the online comment survey. Residents were encouraged to submit their comments electronically, by mail or through representatives of the Committee. Results of Outreach Strategy The public involvement strategy implemented during the planning process created a dialogue among participants and interested residents, which resulted in many benefits, a few of which are highlighted below.  Acquired additional information about natural hazards. Verifiable hazard event and damage information was obtained from participants that presents a clearer assessment of the extent and magnitude of natural hazards that have impacted each County. This information included details about thunderstorms with damaging winds, lightning strikes, tornadoes, and floods not available from state and federal databases.  Obtained critical facilities damage information. Data collection surveys soliciting information about critical facilities damaged by natural hazards were used to supplement information obtained from government databases. This information was vital to the preparation of the vulnerability analysis.  Increased awareness of the impacts associated with natural hazard events within the County. Understanding how mitigation actions can reduce risk to life and property helped generate over 100 new mitigation projects and activities at the local level that had not been previously identified in any other planning process. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Planning Process 27 2.3 PARTICIPATION OPPORTUNITIES FOR INTERESTED PARTIES Businesses, schools, not-for-profit organizations, neighboring counties, and other interested parties were provided multiple opportunities to participate in the planning process.

Bristol-Kendall Fire Protection District (FPD), Lisbon-Seward FPD, Little Rock-Fox Fire District, Newark FPD, Oswego FPD, and Sandwich Community FPD served on the Committee and provided input into the planning process. The Bristol-Kendall FPD, Lisbon- Seward FPD, Newark FPD, Oswego FPD, and Sandwich Community FPD chose to be included as participating jurisdictions in the Plan update. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Planning Process 28 Other Government Entities The townships within Kendall County as well as the Oswegoland Park District were invited to participate in the Plan update. Big Grove Township, Bristol Township, Kendall Township, Oswego Township, Seward Township, and the Oswegoland Park District served on the Committee and provided input into the planning process. Kendall Township, Oswego Township, and the Oswegoland Park District chose to be included as participating jurisdictions in the Plan update. Neighboring Counties A memo was sent to EMA/ESDA/OHSEM coordinators in the neighboring counties inviting them to participate in the mitigation planning process. The counties contacted included DeKalb, DuPage, Grundy, Kane, LaSalle, and Will. Appendix I contains a copy of the invitation memo. 2.4 IDENTIFICATION OF EXISTING CAPABILITIES Each participating jurisdiction has a unique set of capabilities and resources available to accomplish hazard mitigation and reduce long-term vulnerabilities to hazard events. In order to identify these existing capabilities and resources, a Capability Assessment was conducted. The Capability Assessment helps determine the ability of the participating jurisdictions to implement the Mitigation Strategy and to identify potential opportunities for establishing or enhancing specific mitigation policies, program, or projects. It is important to try and establish which goals and actions are feasible based on an understanding of the organizational capacity of those entities tasked with their implementation. This assessment is designed to provide a general overview of the key capabilities in place for each participating jurisdiction along with their potential effect of loss reduction. In order to catalog the existing capabilities of each participant, Capability Assessment Worksheets were distributed to each of the participating jurisdictions at the first Committee meeting on January 24, 2023. The worksheets requested information on four primary types of capabilities: planning and regulatory; administrative and technical; financial; and education and outreach. The following provides a brief description of each capability type. Planning & Regulatory Capabilities: Planning and regulatory capabilities are based on the implementation of existing plans, policies, codes, ordinances, resolutions, local laws, and programs that prevent or reduce the impacts of hazards and guide and manage growth and development. Administrative & Technical Capabilities: Administrative and technical capabilities are based on the available staff and personnel resources as well as their related skills and tools that can be used to develop and implement mitigation actions, policies, and programs. Financial Capabilities: Financial capabilities include those resources a jurisdiction has access to or is eligible to use to implement mitigation actions, polices, and programs. Education & Outreach Capabilities: Education and outreach capabilities include programs and methods already in place that could be used to support implementation of mitigation actions and communicate hazard-related information. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Planning Process 29 Figures PP-3 through PP-14 summarize the results of the Capability Assessment by participating jurisdiction type (i.e., county/municipalities, townships, schools, fire protection districts, park districts, etc.) A capability level of “Limited”, “Moderate” or “High” was assigned by capability type to each participating jurisdiction based on the number of available capabilities and resources as well as the jurisdiction’s size/area served. Figure PP-15 summarizes the individual capability levels by capability type and provides an overall capability ranking for each participant. This assessment provides a consolidated inventory of existing plans, ordinances, programs, and resources in place. Whenever applicable, these existing capabilities were reviewed and incorporated into the Plan. Highlights from the Capability Assessment include:  The County and all of the municipalities, with the exception of Lisbon and Plattville, have building codes and zoning ordinances in place.  The County and all of the municipalities, with the exception of Plattville, have comprehensive/ master plans in place.  Only the County and Oswego have continuity of operations plans in place. The County, Montgomery, Newark, Oswego, Plano, Yorkville, Oswego Township, Lisbon CCSD #90, Newark CHSD #18, Oswego CUSD #308, Plano CUSD #88, Bristol-Kendall FPD, Lisbon- Seward FPD, Newark FPD, Oswego FPD, Sandwich Community FPD, and Oswegoland Park District are fortunate to have the resources and abilities to potentially expand on and improve the existing policies and programs identified. Lisbon, Plattville, Kendall Township, Parkview Christian Academy, and St. Mary Catholic School have more limited resources and abilities to expand on and improve the existing policies and programs identified. The lack of legal authority and policies/programs currently in place may hamper these participants’ abilities to expand and strengthen existing policies and programs. Their fiscal and staffing situations are also limited. Overcoming these limitations will require time and a range of actions including, but not limited to, improved general awareness of natural hazards and the potential benefits that may come from the development of new standards in terms of hazard loss prevention and the identification of resources available to expand and improve existing policies and programs should the opportunity arise. Based on conversations with Committee members and a review of available planning documents, only Montgomery has explicitly incorporated mitigation strategies into its planning mechanisms. Montgomery completed an update of its comprehensive plan in 2014. The plan includes a chapter devoted to hazard mitigation & sustainability and includes a list of the following twelve action items:  Adopt the latest international series of building codes with additional revisions as needed. The Village has updated its building codes twice since the update of its comprehensive plan in 2014. In 2023, the Village adopted the 2021 ICC Codes with local amendments.  Improve code enforcement with training for building department staff on the natural hazards aspect of the code. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Planning Process 30  Perform facilities audits on critical facilities at risk of exposure to natural hazards (Kane).  Establish retrofitting incentives for improvements on private property.  Protect structures in Montgomery’s three repetitive loss areas that have been identified in the Plan by acquisition or elevation.  Implement a formal and regular drainage system maintenance and urban forestry programs.  Add rain and stream gages to develop monitoring capability for flood predictions.  Conduct a review of emergency response plans and create additional plans for natural hazards as needed.  Implement flood control projects per Community Rating System (CRS) criteria where they are most practical including farm drainage and bridge and culvert improvements.  Improve public outreach and communication and make property protection materials available to the public.  Conduct stream and ditch maintenance in developed areas.  Create first responder alert systems. Figure PP-16, located at the end of this section, provides information on comprehensive/land use plans, building codes, and zoning ordinances for the County and participating municipalities such as effective date, next scheduled update (if known), and International Code Council I-Code version. The Kendall County Stormwater Management Plan, containing the County’s stormwater ordinance, was adopted in 2010 with Oswego and Yorkville choosing to adopt the County’s ordinance. No scheduled updates of this Plan are anticipated at this time. Montgomery adopted the 2019 Kane County Stormwater Management Ordinance, which is scheduled to be updated in 2024. Plano adopted a stormwater management ordinance in 2016 but did not indicate when the next scheduled update is anticipated. Lisbon, Newark, and Plattville do not have stormwater plans or ordinances. 2.5 REVIEW & INCORPORATION OF EXISTING PLANS The existing plans, studies, reports, technical information, and maps that were reviewed and incorporated into the Plan update, where appropriate, can be found in Section 7.0 References and are cited in each appropriate section.

Assets are determined by each participant and can include people; structures (i.e., critical facilities, lifelines, and infrastructure); systems (i.e., networks such as electrical and communications, etc.); and natural, historic, and cultural resources). This section summarizes the results of the risk assessment conducted on the natural and man-made hazards in Kendall County. The information contained in this section was gathered by evaluating local, state, and federal records from the last 20 to 70 years. This risk assessment identifies the natural and man-made hazards deemed most important to the Planning Committee and includes a profile of each hazard that identifies past occurrences, the severity or extent of the events, and the likelihood of future occurrences. It also provides a vulnerability analysis that identifies the impacts to public health and property, evaluates the assets of the participating jurisdictions and estimates the potential impacts each natural hazard would have on the evaluated assets. Where applicable, the differences in vulnerability between participating jurisdictions are described. The subsequent sections provide detailed information on each of the selected natural hazards. The sections are color coded and ordered by the frequency with which the natural hazard has previously occurred within the County. Each natural hazard section contains three subsections: hazard identification, hazard profile, and hazard vulnerability. Hazard Selection One of the responsibilities of the Committee was to review the natural hazards detailed in the previous Plan and decide if additional hazards should be included in the Plan update. Over the course of the first two meetings, the Committee members discussed their experiences with natural and man-made hazard events and reviewed information on various hazards. While not included in the original Plan, the Committee chose to include drought and excessive heat in this Plan update. The following identifies the hazards included in this Plan update:  severe storms (thunderstorms, hail, lightning & heavy rain)  floods (riverine & flash)  severe winter storms (snow & ice)  tornadoes  excessive heat  extreme cold  drought  earthquakes  man-made hazards including:  hazardous substances (generation, transportation & storage/handling)  waste disposal  hazardous materials incidents  waste remediation  terrorism The Planning Committee chose not to include the following hazards in the Plan: land/mine subsidence, levee failures, landslides, and dam failures. In Illinois land subsidence generally occurs in areas where mining has been conducted. According to ISGS’s ILMINES mapper, there are no underground mines located within the County. Karst refers to landforms underlain by Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 46 limestone that has been dissolved, producing characteristic landscapes such as sinkholes. Mapping prepared by the ISGS shows no karst geologic characteristics present in Kendall County. Information obtained from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ National Levee Database indicates there are no public or private levees located in Kendall County. A review of the USGS Landslide Inventory, NASA’s Global Landslide Catalog, and the Illinois State Geological Survey’s (ISGS) Landslide Inventory of Illinois did not identify any landslide events within the County. Discussions with the Planning Committee did not reveal any recent occurrences of landslides. A review of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ National Inventory of Dams identified seven classified dams located in the County. Of the seven dams, two have a hazard potential classification rating of “Significant” and the remaining five dams have a hazard classification rating of “Low”. There are no “High” hazard classified dams within the County. Based on information available from the National Inventory of Dams and a visual inspection, these dams do not have reservoirs with immense storage capacities and are not located in densely populated areas. According to the Stanford University’s National Performance of Dams Incident Database, there are no known recorded dam failures associated with these dams and discussions with the Kendall County EMA Director did not identify any major concerns. An electronic survey was sent out asking Planning Committee members whether dam failures should be included in the Plan update. Based on the responses received, the Planning Committee did not feel dam failures posed a significant impact on the County. Based on the information provided, the Committee did not consider these hazards warranted inclusion in the Plan update. Risk Priority Index After reviewing the preliminary results of the risk assessment at the second meeting, Committee members and the participating jurisdictions were asked to complete a Risk Priority Index (RPI) exercise for the hazards that have the potential to impact the County and participating jurisdictions. The RPI provides quantitative guidance for ranking the hazards and offers participants with another tool to determine which hazards present the highest risk and therefore which ones to focus on when formulating mitigation actions. Each hazard was scored on three categories: 1) frequency, 2) impacts on life and health, and 3) impacts on property and infrastructure. A scoring system was developed that assigned specific factors to point values ranging from 1 to 4 for each category. For those hazards that were not applicable to a particular jurisdiction, a value of “NA” was assigned to each category. The higher the point value, the greater the risk associated with that hazard. Figure R-1, located at the end of this section, identifies the factors and values/point values associated with each category. Participants were asked to score the selected hazards based on the perspective of the entity they represented on the Committee. The Consultant took the point values assigned to each category and averaged the remaining results and came up with an overall value for each category. The values for each category were then added together to calculate an RPI score for each hazard. A ranking was then assigned to each hazard based on the RPI score. Figure R-2, located at the end of this section, provides the hazard rankings for the participating jurisdictions. RPI scores were not generated for Bristol-Kendall Fire Protection District. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 47 Figure R-3 provides a side-by-side comparison of how the hazards ranked between the RPI exercise conducted for the original Plan in 2011 and the exercise conducted for the Plan update for each of the original participants. RPIs were not generated in 2011 for Montgomery, Plattville or any of the special districts. The top hazards for the County in 2011 were thunderstorms with damaging winds, hail and lightning, followed by tornadoes and transportation hazardous materials incidents. In 2023, the top hazards were tornadoes, followed by thunderstorms with damaging winds and severe winter storms. FEMA’s National Risk Index The National Risk Index (NRI) is an online mapping and data-based interface that helps illustrate a community’s risk to 18 identified natural hazards. The natural hazards identified by the NRI and included in this Plan are: cold wave, drought, earthquake, hail, heat wave, ice storm, landslides, lightning, riverine flooding, strong wind, tornado, and winter weather. The NRI leverages available source data for natural hazard and community risk factors, such as social vulnerability and community resilience, to develop a baseline relative risk measurement for each county and census tract in the U.S. The goal is to help individuals better understand the natural hazard risk of their communities. In the NRI, risk is defined as the potential for negative impacts as a result of a natural hazard. The risk equation behind the NRI includes three components: a natural hazards risk component (expected annual loss), a consequence enhancing component (social vulnerability), and a consequence reduction component (community resilience). Social vulnerability represents the susceptibility of social groups to the adverse impacts of natural hazards. Community resilience represents the ability of a community to prepare for anticipated natural hazards, adapt to changing conditions, and withstand and recover rapidly from disruptions. The scores and ratings generated by the NRI describe a county’s or census tract’s relative position among all other U.S. counties and census tracts for a given component. Dataset Update Version 1.19.0 released March 2023 was used in this analysis. Scores can range from 0 (the lowest possible value) to 100 (the highest possible value). For every score there is assigned one of five qualitative ratings: “Very Low”, “Relatively Low”, “Relatively Moderate”, “Relatively High”, and “Very High.” Because all ratings are relative, there are no specific numeric values that determine the rating. In order to provide the participating jurisdictions and public with additional information on the natural hazards included in the Plan, Figure R-4 located at the end of this section, presents the overall NRI scores and ratings for each census tract as well as for the County. 2020 census tract information was used in this version of the NRI. In 2020, there were 21 census tracts in Kendall County and three census tracts that include the portions of the Village of Montgomery in Kane County. Only seven of the 24 census tracts have a Risk Index rating of “Relatively Moderate”. The rest of the census tracts have a Risk Index rating of “Relatively Low”. One census tract has a Social Vulnerability rating of “Very High”, four have a Social Vulnerability rating of “Relatively Moderate”, and the remaining census tracts have a Social Vulnerability rating of “Relatively Low” or “Very Low”. Figure R-5, located at the end of this section, provides the NRI scores and ratings by hazard type for each census tract as well as the County. Hazard ratings of “Relatively High” and “Very High” Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 48 are highlighted in yellow by census tract. The hazards with the highest relative ratings include tornadoes, extreme cold, tornadoes, excessive heat, and lightning. Critical Facilities & Infrastructure Critical facilities and infrastructure include structures, lifelines, systems, networks, and institutions that are critical for life, safety, and economic viability and necessary for a community’s response to and recovery from emergencies. The loss of function of any of these assets can intensify the severity of the impacts and speed of recovery associated a hazard event. Critical facilities and infrastructure may include, but are not limited to, the following:  Essential Facilities: Facilities essential to the health and welfare of the whole population including hospitals and other medical facilities, police and fire stations, emergency operations centers, evacuation shelters, and schools.  Government Facilities: Facilities associated with the continued operations of government services such as courthouses, city/village halls, township buildings, and highway/maintenance centers.  Infrastructure Systems: Infrastructure associated with drinking water, wastewater, transportation (roads, railways, waterways), communication systems, electric power, natural gas and oil.  Housing Facilities: Facilities that serve populations that have access and function needs such as nursing homes, skilled and memory care facilities, residential group homes, and day care centers.  High Potential Loss Facilities: Facilities that would have an impact or high loss associated with them if their functionality is compromised such as nuclear power plants, dams, levees, military installations and facilities housing industrial or hazardous materials.  Gathering Places: Facilities such as parks, libraries, community centers, and churches. As part of the planning process each participating jurisdiction reviewed and/or completed a questionnaire identifying the critical facilities and infrastructure located within their jurisdiction, both publicly and privately-owned. Figure R-6, located at the end of this section, identifies the number of critical facilities and infrastructure located in each participating jurisdiction for select categories. Identifying these assets makes local leaders more aware of the critical facilities and infrastructure located within their jurisdictions and helps them make informed choices on how to better protect these key resources. While considered a “local government entity” for planning purposes, Kendall Township, Oswego Township, Lisbon Consolidated Community School District (CCSD) #90, Newark Consolidated High School District (CHSD) #18, Oswego Community Unit School District (CUSD) #308, Parkview Christian Academy, Plano CUSD #88, St. Mary Catholic School, Bristol-Kendall Fire Protection District (FPD), Lisbon-Seward FPD, Newark FPD, Oswego FPD, Sandwich Community FPD, and Oswegoland Park District do not have an extensive inventory of critical facilities/infrastructure assets to consider when conducting the risk assessment. The critical facilities/infrastructure assets for Lisbon CCSD #90, Newark CHSD #18, Parkview Christian Academy, Plano CUSD #88, St. Mary Catholic School, Bristol-Kendall FPD, Lisbon- Seward FPD, and Newark FPD are all located within a participating municipality and are a subset Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 49 of these municipalities’ critical facilities. As such their risk is considered to be the same or similar to the risk experienced by the municipalities for those hazards that either impact the entire planning area or can occur at any location within the planning area (i.e., severe storms, severe winter storms, etc.). For those hazards where the risk to the schools or FPDs varies from the risk facing the municipalities, a separate narrative assessment will be provided under the appropriate hazard’s vulnerability subsection. The critical facilities for Oswego Township are located in Boulder Hill, the largest unincorporated subdivision in Kendall County. Boulder Hill is situated between Oswego and Montgomery and therefore its risk is considered to be the same or similar to the risk experienced by these municipalities for those hazards that either impact the entire planning area or can occur at any location within the planning area (i.e., severe storms, severe winter storms, etc.). For those hazards where the risk to the Township varies from the risk facing the municipalities, a separate narrative assessment will be provided under the appropriate hazard’s vulnerability subsection. The critical facilities for Kendall Township are located in unincorporated Kendall County. Their risk is considered to be the same or similar to the risk experienced by the County for those hazards that either impact the entire planning area or can occur at any location within the planning area (i.e., severe storms, severe winter storms, etc.) For those hazards where the risk to Township critical facilities varies from the risk facing the planning area (i.e., the County), a separate narrative assessment will be provided under the appropriate hazard’s vulnerability subsection. The critical facilities for Oswegoland Park District are located in Oswego and Boulder Hill. The Park District also has parks and trails located in Oswego, Boulder Hill, Montgomery, Plainfield, Aurora, and unincorporated Kendall County. The risk to critical facilities, parks, and trails in Boulder Hill, Plainfield, and Aurora is considered to be the same or similar to the risk experienced by Oswego and Montgomery for those hazards that either impact the entire planning area or can occur at any location within the planning area (i.e., severe storms, severe winter storms, etc.). For those hazards where the risk to the Park District varies from the risk facing the municipalities, a separate narrative assessment will be provided under the appropriate hazard’s vulnerability subsection. The critical facilities for Owego FPD are located in Oswego, Montgomery, and Plainfield. As discussed previously, the risk to critical facilities in Plainfield is considered to be the same or similar to the risk experienced by Oswego and Montgomery for those hazards that either impact the entire planning area or can occur at any location within the planning area (i.e., severe storms, severe winter storms, etc.). For those hazards where the risk to the FPD varies from the risk facing the municipalities, a separate narrative assessment will be provided under the appropriate hazard’s vulnerability subsection. The critical facilities for Oswego CUSD #308 are located in Oswego, Boulder Hill, Montgomery, Plainfield and Aurora, with three of the District’s schools located just over the county line in Will County. The risk to the critical facilities in Boulder, Plainfield, and Aurora is considered to be the same or similar to the risk experienced by Oswego and Montgomery for those hazards that either impact the entire planning area or can occur at any location within the planning area (i.e., severe storms, severe winter storms, etc.). For those hazards where the risk to the District varies from the Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 50 risk facing the municipalities, a separate narrative assessment will be provided under the appropriate hazard’s vulnerability subsection. Assets Vulnerability Survey The participating jurisdictions were also asked to complete an Assets Vulnerability Survey at the third meeting to assist them in creating problem statements summarizing the consequences and/or effects the studied hazards have on their assets. The Survey asked participants to describe their jurisdiction’s greatest vulnerabilities to natural hazards and which assets they felt have the greatest vulnerabilities and the hazards they are most vulnerable to. This information is summarized under the appropriate hazard’s vulnerability subsection. Future Conditions While we cannot predict with certainty what the weather of the future will look like, we can use models to help us make sense of the patterns we have seen in the past and to use that information to predict what events will be more likely to occur going forward. By looking at data from previous weather conditions and taking into account trends in that data that have emerged over time, we can with some degree of accuracy project what weather may look like in the future. It is important to consider that nearer term predictions have the greatest likelihood of accuracy since they require the least extrapolation and guesswork; however, this does not mean that longer term predictions are not plausible or not useful. Often, having a prediction that is even partly right is preferable to having no guide at all. By coming up with best case and worst case scenarios, even if neither is terribly likely, we can gain a better understanding of the range of potential outcomes and a good idea of what the most probable outcomes might look like. Earth’s weather and climate have always been variable. Over time, sea levels have risen and fallen, glaciers have advanced and retreated, and droughts, floods, wildfires, and storms have periodically upended the notion of “normal”. In recent years in the U.S., there have been several trends observed in weather patterns that offer us some insight as to what the near future may hold. Broadly, these likely changes can be referred to as “future conditions”. They include more general seasonal trends as well as more specific weather pattern trends. In recent decades we have seen both earlier springs (earlier last frost dates) and later winters (later first frost dates) in the U.S. Taken together, these two changes mean that winters are likely to be shorter and milder, and summers are likely to be longer and hotter across much of the continental U.S. than they were historically. In combination, shorter, milder winters and longer, more intense summers have resulted in an observed increase in average annual temperature. As with any change that occurs gradually, the difference can be difficult to perceive if the time frame you are looking at is small. Additionally, smaller windows of time are more likely to be skewed by rare occurrences or anomalies. Looking at longer time frames allows us to see the big picture, putting highly unusual years into context by averaging them out with other more typical years. Looking at consecutive 30-year period averages called “Normals” allows us to detect how what is average (or ‘normal’) has shifted over time. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 51 Figure R-7 shows U.S. annual temperature compared to 20th-century averages. By looking at 30 Year Normals for average annual temperature compared to overall 20th century averages, a trend of increasing annual temperature is particularly apparent in the final three 30 year periods. (1971- 2000, 1981-2010, 1991-2020). Since these are average annual temperatures, even a small difference corresponds to larger temperature changes recorded within a year. Also observed have been changes in when, where, and how much precipitation occurs across the U.S. Figure R-8 shows U.S. annual precipitation compared to 20th-century averages. For some areas of the Country, this has resulted in increases in overall precipitation. The Midwestern U.S. has been on average getting progressively wetter in 30 year rolling averages from the period of 1951-1980 onwards; elsewhere, it has resulted in decreases, such as in much of the Western and Southwestern US, which has been getting drier since the period of 1971-2000 onwards. Trends also reveal an uptick in the frequency and severity of hazardous weather events. While this is in part due to better record-keeping and a higher number of people and monitoring devices to witness hazardous events in order to report them, this trend is at least in part due to warmer bodies of air that tend to “supercharge” summer storm systems, making them more likely to produce severe weather events. Specific information on future conditions is summarized under the appropriate hazard’s probability subsection.

Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 62 3.1 SEVERE STORMS (THUNDERSTORMS, HAIL, LIGHTNING & HEAVY RAIN) HAZARD IDENTIFICATION What is the definition of a severe storm? The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) National Weather Service (NWS) defines a “severe storm” as any thunderstorm that produces one or more of the following:  winds with gust of 50 knots (58 mph) or greater;  hail that is at least one inch in diameter (quarter size) or larger; and/or  a tornado. While severe storms are capable of producing deadly lightning and heavy rain that may lead to flash flooding, the NWS does not use lightning/either to define a severe storm. However, a discussion of both lightning and heavy rain is included in this section because both are capable of causing extensive damage. For the purposes of this report, tornadoes and flooding are categorized as separate hazards and are not discussed under severe storms. What is a thunderstorm? A thunderstorm is a rain shower accompanied by lightning and thunder. An average thunderstorm is approximately 15 miles in diameter, affecting a relatively small area when compared to winter storms or hurricanes, and lasts an average of 30 minutes. Thunderstorms can bring heavy rain, damaging winds, hail, lightning and tornadoes. There are four basic types of thunderstorms: single-cell, multi-cell, squall line, and supercell. The following provides a brief description of each. Single-cell Thunderstorm Single cell storms are small, weak storms that only last about ½ hour to an hour and are not usually considered severe. They are typically driven by heating on a summer afternoon. Occasionally a single cell storm will become severe, but only briefly. When this happens, it is called a pulse severe storm. Multi-cell Thunderstorm Multi-cell storms are the most common type of thunderstorms. A multi-cell storm is organized in clusters of at least two to four short-lived cells. Each cell usually lasts 30 to 60 minutes while the system as whole may persist for many hours. Multi-cell storms may produce hail, strong winds, brief tornadoes, and/or flooding. Squall Line A Squall line is a group of storms arranged in a line, often accompanied by “squalls” of high wind and heavy rain. The line of storms can be continuous or there can be gaps and breaks in the line. Squall lines tend to pass quickly and can be hundreds of miles long but are typically only 10 to 20 miles wide. A “bow echo” is a radar signature of a squall line that “bows out” as winds fall behind the line and circulation develops on either end. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 63 Supercell Thunderstorm Supercell storms are long-lived (greater than one hour) and highly organized storms that feed off a rising current of air (an updraft). The main characteristic that sets a supercell storm apart from other thunderstorm types is the presence of rotation in the updraft. The rotating updraft of a supercell (called a mesocyclone when visible on radar) helps a supercell storm produce extreme weather events. Supercell storms are potentially the most dangerous storm type and have been observed to generate the vast majority of large and violet tornadoes, as well as downburst winds and large hail. Despite their size, all thunderstorms are dangerous and capable of threatening life and property. Of the estimated 100,000 thunderstorms that occur each year in the U.S., roughly 10% are classified as severe. What kinds of damaging winds are produced by a thunderstorm? Aside from tornadoes, thunderstorms can produce straight-line winds. A straight-line wind is defined as any wind produced by a thunderstorm that is not associated with rotation. There are several types of straight-line winds including downdrafts, downbursts, microbursts, gust fronts and derechos. Damage from straight-line winds is more common than damage from tornadoes and accounts for most thunderstorm wind damage. Straight-line wind speeds can exceed 87 knots (100 mph), produce a damage pathway extending for hundreds of miles and can cause damage equivalent to a strong tornado. The NWS measures a storm’s wind speed in knots or nautical miles. A wind speed of one knot is equal to approximately 1.15 miles per hour. Figure SS-1 shows conversions from knots to miles per hour for various wind speeds. Figure SS-1 Wind Speed Conversions Knots (kts) Miles Per Hour (mph) Knots (kts) Miles Per Hour (mph) 50 kts 58 mph 60 kts 69 mph 52 kts 60 mph 65 kts 75 mph 55 kts 63 mph 70 kts 81 mph 58 kts 67 mph 80 kts 92 mph What is hail? Hail is precipitation in the form of spherical or irregular-shaped pellets of ice that occur within a thunderstorm when strong rising currents of air (updrafts) carry raindrops upward into extremely cold areas of the atmosphere where they freeze into ice. Hailstones grow by colliding with supercooled water drops. The supercooled water drops freeze on contact with ice crystals, frozen rain drops, dust, etc. Thunderstorms with strong updrafts continue lifting the hailstones to the top of the cloud where they encounter more supercooled water and continue to grow. Eventually the updraft can no longer support the weight of the hail, or the updraft weakens, and the hail falls to the ground. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 64 In the U.S., hail causes more than $1 billion in damages to property and crops annually. Hail has been known to cause injuries, although it rarely causes fatalities or serious injury. How is the severity of a hail event measured? The severity or magnitude of a hail event is measured in terms of the size (diameter) of the hailstones. The hail size is estimated by comparing it to known objects. Figure SS-2 provides descriptions for various hail sizes. Figure SS-2 Hail Size Descriptions Hail Diameter (inches) Description Hail Diameter (inches) Description 0.25 in. pea 1.75 in. golf ball 0.50 in. marble/mothball 2.50 in. tennis ball 0.75 in. penny 2.75 in. baseball 0.88 in. nickel 3.00 in. teacup 1.00 in. quarter 4.00 in. grapefruit 1.50 in. ping pong ball 4.50 in. softball Source: NOAA, National Severe Storm Laboratory. Hail size can vary widely. Hailstones may be as small as 0.25 inches in diameter (pea-sized) or, under extreme circumstances, as large as 4.50 inches in diameter (softball-sized). Typically hail that is one (1) inch in diameter (quarter-sized) or larger is considered severe. The severity of a hail event can also be measured or rated using the TORRO Hailstorm Intensity Scale. This scale was developed in 1986 by the Tornado and Storm Research Organisation of the United Kingdom. It measures the intensity or damage potential of a hail event based on several factors including: maximum hailstone size, distribution, shape and texture, numbers, fall speed and strength of the accompanying winds. The Hailstorm Intensity Scale identifies ten different categories of hail intensity, H0 through H10. Figure SS-3 gives a brief description of each category. This scale is unique because it recognizes that, while the maximum hailstone size is the most important parameter relating to structural damage, size alone is insufficient to accurately categorize the intensity and damage potential of a hail event. It should be noted that the typical damage impacts associated with each intensity category reflect the building materials predominately used in the United Kingdom. These descriptions may need to be modified for use in other countries to take into account the differences in building materials typically used (i.e., whether roofing materials are predominately shingle, slate or concrete, etc.). What is lightning? Lightning, a component of all thunderstorms, is a visible electrical discharge that results from the buildup of charged particles within storm clouds. It can occur from cloud-to-ground, cloud-to- cloud, within a cloud or cloud-to-air. The air near a lightning strike is heated to approximately Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 65 50,000°F (hotter than the surface of the sun). The rapid heating and cooling of the air near the lightning strike causes a shock wave that produces thunder.

Source: Tornado and Storm Research Organisation, TORRO Hailstorm Intensity Scale Table. Lightning on average causes 60 fatalities and 400 injuries annually in the U.S. Most fatalities and injuries occur when people are caught outdoors in the summer months during the afternoons and evenings. In addition, lightning can cause structure and forest fires. Many of the wildfires in the western U.S. and Alaska are started by lightning. According to the NWS lightning strikes cost more than $1 billion in insured losses each year. Are alerts issued for severe storms? Yes. The NWS Weather Forecast Office in Chicago, Illinois is responsible for issuing severe thunderstorm watches and warnings for Kendall County depending on the weather conditions. The following provides a brief description of each type of alert.  Watch. A severe thunderstorm watch is issued when conditions are favorable for the development of severe thunderstorms producing hail greater than one inch in diameter Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 66 and/or wind speeds of 58 mph in or near the watch area. Individuals should stay alert for the latest weather information and be prepared to take shelter.  Warning. A severe thunderstorm warning is issued when a severe thunderstorm or a line of severe thunderstorms capable of producing hail greater than one inch in diameter and/or wind speeds of 58 mph is approaching or is occurring. Warnings indicate imminent danger to life and property for those who are in the path of the storm and individuals should seek safe shelter. HAZARD PROFILE The following identifies past occurrences of severe storms; details the severity or extent of each event (if known); identifies the locations potentially affected; and estimates the likelihood of future occurrences. When have severe storms occurred previously? What is the extent of these previous severe storms? Tables 1, 2, 3, and 4 located in Appendix J, summarize the previous occurrences as well as the extent or magnitude of severe storm events recorded in Kendall County. Severe storm events are separated into four categories: thunderstorms with damaging winds, hail, lightning, and heavy rain. In Kendall County, severe storms are the most frequently occurring natural hazard. Thunderstorms with Damaging Winds NOAA’s Storm Events Database was used to document 137 reported occurrences of thunderstorms with damaging winds in Kendall County between 1996 and 2022. Of the 137 occurrences, 135 had reported wind speeds of 50 knots or greater. There were two occurrences, however, where the wind speed was not recorded. Included in the 127 thunderstorms with damaging wind events is one event that contributed to a major federal disaster declaration in Kendall County. The highest wind speed recorded in Kendall County occurred south of Oswego on June 29, 2012 when winds reached 80 knots (92 mph) during a thunderstorm event. Thunderstorms with damaging winds have been recorded in every participating jurisdiction within the County on multiple occasions. Figure SS-4 charts the reported occurrences of thunderstorms with damaging winds by month. Of the 137 events, 90 (66%) took place in May, June, and July making this the peak period for thunderstorms with damaging winds in Kendall County. Of those 90 events, 41 (46%) occurred during June, making this the peak month for thunderstorms with damaging winds. Of the 137 occurrences, 82% of all thunderstorms with damaging winds occurred during the p.m. hours.

Of the 27 occurrences, 12 produced hailstones 1.50 inches or larger in diameter. The largest hail stones documented in Kendall County measured 4.75 inches in diameter (larger than a softball) and fell on June 10, 2015 in Minooka. Hail one (1) inch in diameter or greater has been recorded in every participating jurisdiction except Lisbon on at least one occasion. This does not mean that hail one inch in diameter or greater has not fallen in Lisbon, it simply indicates it wasn’t recorded. Figure SS-5 charts the reported occurrences of hail by month. Of the 27 occurrences, 22 (82%) took place in April, May, and June making this the peak period for hail in Kendall County. Of these 22 events, nine (41%) occurred during June, making this the peak month for hail events. Twenty-four (89%) of the 27 severe storms with hail occurred during the p.m. hours. Lightning While lightning strike events occur regularly across northeastern Illinois, NOAA’s Storm Events Database and Committee Member records were only able to identify two occurrences of lightning strikes with verified damages in Kendall County between 2010 and 2022. The data limitations are almost certainly due to the rural nature of a majority of the County and the fact that lightning strikes are rarely reported. According to data from Vaisala’s National Lightning Detection Network, Kendall County averaged from to 6 to 20 cloud-to-ground lightning flashes per square mile annually between 2009 and 2018. Figure SS-6 illustrates the cloud-to-ground lightning flash density (number of cloud- to-ground flashes per square mile per year) by county for the continental U.S. In comparison, Figure SS-4 Thunderstorms with Damaging Winds by Month 1996 – 2022 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov DecNumber of EventsMonth Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 68 Illinois averaged 12.7 cloud-to-ground lightning flashes per square mile from 2009 to 2018, ranking it eighth in the Country for lightning flash density.

This may be due in part to a lack of uniform reporting guidelines for heavy rain events and the rural nature of a majority of the County. What locations are affected by severe storms? Severe storms affect the entire County. A single severe storm event will generally extend across the entire County and affect multiple locations. Severe storms have been recorded in every participating jurisdiction within the County on multiple occasions. What is the probability of future severe storm events occurring based on historical data? Thunderstorms with Damaging Winds Kendall County has had 137 verified occurrences of thunderstorms with damaging winds between 1996 and 2022. With 137 occurrences over the past 27 years, Kendall County would expect to experience at least five thunderstorms with damaging winds in any given year. There were 21 years over the last 27 years where multiple (three or more) thunderstorms with damaging winds occurred. This indicates that the probability that multiple thunderstorms with damaging winds may occur during any given year within the County is 78%. Hail There have been 27 verified occurrences of hail one (1) inch in diameter or greater between 1996 and 2022. With 27 occurrences over the past 27 years, Kendall County would expect to experience at least one severe storm with hail event will in any given year. There were six years over the last 27 years where two or more hail events occurred. This indicates that the probability that more than one severe storm with hail may occur during any given year within the County is 22%. What is the probability of future severe storm events occurring based on modeled future conditions? Severe storms are very difficult to forecast in the near-term future, let alone in the long-term future. This owes to the fact that these events arise due to a combination of multiple factors (including pressure fronts, wind speeds, temperatures, and humidity) working together. What can be predicted with more certainty looking into the future is the likelihood of supercell formation, which occurs with fewer conditions needing to be met, mainly a temperature differential in fronts and a relatively low moisture content. Supercells are strong, longer-lived storm systems characterized by rotation and updrafts that make them capable of producing hazards such as damaging winds, hail, and even tornadoes. While the formation of a supercell does not ensure that severe storm events will follow, supercells increase the probability of these events significantly, making supercell formation a good predictor for the likelihood of these other weather events. In addition, in the last 120 years total annual precipitation in Illinois has increased by between 12% to 15% across the State. This trend is likely to continue, and as a result, precipitation in Illinois is forecasted to increase in coming decades. In addition to changes in the overall amount of precipitation, changes in precipitation patterns indicate that future events will likely be less frequent, but larger and more severe. The Illinois State Climatologist indicates that since the Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 70 beginning of the 20th Century, Illinois has seen a 40% increase in the number of days with extreme precipitation events (rainfall of 2 inches or greater) per year. Based on existing trends of increasing supercell formation and future projections of precipitation and temperature, supercells are likely to continue to become more common in the future. For a discussion on future projections of temperature, see Section 3.5. Supercell formation today is mostly confined to the Great Plains and the Midwest, but future projections indicate that the geographic range over which supercells may develop is likely to increase as parts of the Country that were previously unfavorable to supercell formation become warmer and dryer. Additionally, if current trends of milder winters persist, supercell season is also likely to lengthen, starting earlier in the year and ending later. Figure SS-7 contains a series of maps that show how the number of supercell tracks is likely to change in the future. The map at the top labeled a) depicts late 20th Century historical data showing the average number of supercells per year occurring within each grid square on the map. Below, projections for two different late 21st Century future scenarios for supercell frequency are given on the left, a low emission scenario depicted the top left map labeled b) and a high emission scenario depicted in the lower left map labeled d). On the right, the difference between each late 21st Century scenario and the late 20th Century historic baseline is shown, with redder areas showing an increase in supercell tracks per year, and blue areas showing a reduction. Thunderstorms with Damaging Winds Damaging winds in severe storms are most often associated with powerful downdrafts, so looking at the changing prevalence of conditions favorable to generating these downdrafts can give us an indicator of how likely damaging thunderstorm winds may be in the future. The formation of powerful storms is typically energized by an influx of warm moist air. As the climate in the Midwest continues to become wetter and warmer, this makes strong thunderstorms with damaging winds a more probable occurrence in the future. On the other hand, stronger warming occurring at more northerly latitudes is likely to decrease wind shear (a measurement of wind’s change in speed and direction along a column of air), which is another important predictor of damaging winds. It is difficult to know which of these trends may be stronger than the other, or whether these two trends may wind up roughly cancelling each other out. The analysis of these trends should be revisited in subsequent planning efforts as more data becomes available. Hail Hail forms in storm systems with strong updrafts, so the formation of strong supercell storms is a good predictor of the occurrence of hail. The influx of moist, warm air rising over dryer, cooler air tends to create these updrafts, but for hail to occur, the air above the warm air must be cold enough for hail to form. Hail formation also depends on seasonality since the air above is cooler in spring and warmer in fall. While a wetter and warmer climate will likely lead to more severe storms with stronger updrafts, it is more difficult to predict whether more hailstorms will result. Less gradual warming in spring may mean there will not be sufficiently cool air aloft for hail to form. When cool enough air is Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 71 present for hailstones to form, stronger updrafts and more massive storms could be able to generate larger hailstones on average than those seen today. As these trends play out and more data becomes available regarding any shifts in hail frequency or intensity, it will be important to continually reassess the risk posed by hail in future planning efforts.

Heavy Rain Figures SS-8, SS-9, and SS-10 provide tabular and graphical projections for Kendall County, showing estimations for average annual precipitation and number of days with total precipitation greater than 2 inches in the early, mid, and late 21st century with both low and high estimates for each time period. Most likely, the true value will fall between these two estimates. By midcentury, the average annual precipitation in Kendall County is projected to increase by 2 inches per year, while the average number of days with precipitation per year is projected to decrease by 3 to 4 days according to the Climate Mapping for Resilience and Adaptation’s Assessment Tool. Figure SS-7 Mean Annual Supercell Track Counts Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 72 The annual number of days with total precipitation greater than 2 inches is not projected to increase significantly. This is confirmed by the Climate Explorer which indicates that in Kendall County the annual counts of intense rainstorms (rainfall of 2 inches or greater in one day) are not projected to increase. This is based on the findings of the 2018 National Climate Assessment and compares projections for the middle third of the century (2035-2064) with average conditions observed from 1961-1990.

Are the participating jurisdictions vulnerable to severe storms? Yes. All of Kendall County is vulnerable to the dangers presented by severe storms due to the topography of the region and its location in relation to the movement of weather fronts across north-central Illinois. Since 2013, Kendall County has recorded 48 thunderstorms with damaging winds, 10 severe storms with hail one (1) inch in diameter or greater, two verified heavy rain events and one lightning strike with verified damages. Figure SS-11 details the number of thunderstorms with damaging winds and hail events that were recorded in or near each participating municipality while Figure SS-12 details the number of thunderstorms with damaging winds and hail events that were recorded in or near unincorporated areas of Kendall County.

The differences in the number of recorded events between participating municipalities is likely due to the relative size of the municipalities. The 2023 Illinois Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan prepared by the Illinois Emergency Management Agency and Office of Homeland Security (IEMA-OHS) classifies Kendall County’s hazard rating for wind (thunderstorms) and hail as “medium” and lightning as “low”. IEMA-OHS’s overall hazard rating system has five levels: very low, low, medium, high, and very high. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 74 FEMA’s National Risk Index (NRI) rates the County as a whole as “Relatively Moderate” for strong wind (thunderstorms), “Very Low” for hail, and “Relatively Moderate” for lightning. For strong wind, six census tracts are rated “Relatively High”, 16 census tracts are rated “Relatively Moderate”, and two are “Relatively Low”. For hail, all 24 census tracts are rated “Relatively Low” or Very Low”. For lightning, 12 census tracts are rated “Relatively High” and the remaining 12 census tracts are rated “Relatively Moderate”. Table R-5 presents the overall NRI scores and ratings for each census tract as well as for the County as a whole. Have any of the participating jurisdictions identified specific assets vulnerable to the impacts of severe storms? Yes. Based on responses to an Assets Vulnerability Survey distributed to the participating jurisdictions, the following jurisdictions considered specific assets within their jurisdiction vulnerable to severe storms. Bristol-Kendall Fire Protection District:  KenCom handles all 911 calls for the entire County, including the District. If the Dispatch Center was damaged by a severe storm, then the District’s ability to receive and respond to emergency calls will be severely diminished until the backup center can be staffed and activated. Kendall County:  Severe storms with damaging winds have the potential to down power lines causing electrical outages. If the permanent emergency backup generators at the Public Safety Center, which includes KenCom, do not function appropriately, then the County’s ability to respond to a hazard event are severely diminished, including the ability to dispatch emergency responders until the backup center can be staffed and activated.  Severe storms with damaging winds can down trees and utility lines causing debris to block roadways, impacting travel and delaying emergency response times to individuals who need assistance or evacuation. Kendall Township:  If the permanent emergency backup generator at the Township Building doesn’t function appropriately during a power outage caused by a thunderstorm with damaging winds, then township staff would be unable to perform required duties in a timely fashion and the Building could not be used as an emergency shelter for District residents.  Critical facilities within the District are vulnerable to damage caused by thunderstorms with damaging winds. The roof at Cross Lutheran Church School was damaged by straight-line winds in 2016. Lisbon:  Thunderstorms with damaging winds have the potential to down power lines impacting service to critical facilities/infrastructure, such as Village Hall. Village Hall does not have an emergency backup generator and if power is lost to the building, then it is difficult to get to equipment used to respond to events out of the building.  Heavy rain events have flooded roads within the Village impacting travel.  If the permanent emergency backup generator at the wastewater treatment plant doesn’t function appropriately, then a power outage caused by a thunderstorm with damaging winds could impact service to residents. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 75 Lisbon-Seward Fire Protection District:  Roads in the District are frequently obstructed by downed utility lines from thunderstorms with damaging winds which impact travel and delay emergency response times.  The two fire stations within the District are staffed by volunteers. Severe storms have the potential to impact the ability of volunteers to reach the fire stations limiting the resources available to respond to emergency calls.  Both fire stations are vulnerable to hail damage.  Thunderstorms with damaging winds have the potential to down overhead utility lines impacting service to the fire stations and residents. Montgomery:  Thunderstorms with damaging winds have the potential to cause power outages impacting the Village’s ability so supply an adequate amount of drinking water to residents since only some of the well sites have been equipped with emergency backup generators.  The Village’s public works facility does not have an emergency backup generator which could limit service if a power outage is experienced as the result of a thunderstorm with damaging winds.  Lightning strikes have the potential to damage critical facilities within the Village. The Police Department has been hit by lightning, which limited access to for officers to the building and damaged valuable communications equipment. Newark:  Both of the Village’s well sites have been hit by lightning causing damage to equipment.  If the permanent emergency backup generator at each well site doesn’t function appropriately, then a power outage caused by a thunderstorm with damaging winds could impact service to residents.  Straight-line winds have the potential to damage the Village’s elevated water storage tank impacting service to residents. Newark Fire Protection District:  Thunderstorms with damaging winds have the potential to down trees and power lines which impact travel and delay emergency response times. Oswego:  Thunderstorms with damaging winds can down trees and power lines blocking roadways, impacting travel and delaying emergency response times. Oswego Fire Protection District:  Communication systems are vulnerable to damage caused by thunderstorms with damaging winds and lightning strikes. Loss of radio communication with KenCom delays response times, which has occurred on multiple occasions due to severe storms.  Thunderstorms with damaging winds have the potential to down trees and power lines blocking roadways, which impact travel and delay emergency response times. Oswego Township:  The Township Building, which also houses a substation of the Kendall County Sherriff’s Office, does not have an emergency backup generator and constantly loses power as the result of a thunderstorm with damaging winds. The District has lost critical data and systems have crashed due to these power losses. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 76  Heavy rain events cause flooding in the Boulder Hill subdivision due to poor stormwater drainage impacting roadways, which leads to delays in critical response times of emergency responders. Oswegoland Park District:  During extended power outages caused by thunderstorms with damaging winds, our computer server may be compromised depending on duration of outage and longevity of battery backups.  Individuals who participate in the District’s outdoor programs – baseball, softball, soccer, football, aquatics, golf – are vulnerable to injury from lightning strikes. Parkview Christian Academy:  One the Academy’s buildings is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. This asset is vulnerable to straight-line winds and could not be replaced if damaged or destroyed. Plano:  Critical facilities/infrastructure within the City are vulnerable to lightning strikes, especially the Police Department, which is adjacent to an open field. Plano CUSD #88:  Thunderstorms with damaging winds have the potential to down power lines causing a loss of power and impacting critical systems, such as refrigerators/freezers, HVAC, computers and communications, necessary to maintain operations at the District’s five schools.  Lightning strikes have the ability damage critical equipment and cause power outages that would adversely impact learning and would require students to be sent home. Yorkville:  City Hall/Police Department are located in one building. If straight-line winds damaged the facility, then it would severely limit the City’s ability to respond to the disaster and serve residents.  Overhead electrical power lines to critical facilities/infrastructure within the City are vulnerable to damage from thunderstorms with damaging winds. Kendall Township completed a Roadway Overtopping Survey in which they identified two roads within its township, Ament Road near Cross Lutheran School and Helmar Road east of Ashley Road, where heavy rains can cause overtopping of the roadway that exceeds six inches. In both cases the overtopping occurs at a culvert location and is caused by surface water runoff from a heavy rain event or snow melt, not a specific body of water. The Township Clerk indicated that the roads are marked with appropriate warnings of standing water during events. The culverts have been increased in size and ditch cleaning has been conducted to improve drainage in these areas. What impacts resulted from the recorded severe storms? Severe storms as a whole have caused an estimated $812,000 in recorded property damages. The following provides a breakdown of impacts by category. Thunderstorms with Damaging Winds Database and Committee member records indicates that between 1996 and 2022, 22 of the 137 thunderstorms with damaging winds caused $684,000 in property damages. Property damage information was either unavailable or none was recorded for the remaining 113 reported occurrences. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 77 NOAA’s Storm Events Database documented one injury as the result of the June 30, 2004 thunderstorm with damaging wind event. A tree was downed onto a car with a person trapped inside at Plano. Hail Data obtained from NOAA’s Storm Events Database indicates that between 1996 and 2022, one of the 27 hail events caused $100,000 in property damages. Property damage information was either unavailable or none was recorded for the remaining 26 events. No injuries or fatalities were reported as a result of any of the recorded hail events. Lightning Data obtained from NOAA’s Storm Events Database and Committee member records indicate that that the two lightning strike events caused $28,000 in property damages. No injuries or fatalities were reported as a result of either lightning strike event. Heavy Rain Damage information was either unavailable or none was recorded, and no injuries or fatalities were reported as a result of any of the heavy rain events. What other impacts can result from severe storms? In Kendall County, the greatest risk to health and safety from severe storms is vehicle accidents. Hazardous driving conditions resulting from severe storms (i.e., wet pavement, poor visibility, high winds, etc.) can contribute to accidents that result in injuries and fatalities. Traffic accident data assembled by the Illinois Department of Transportation from 2017 through 2021 indicates that wet road surface conditions were present for 11.5% to 15.4% of all crashes recorded annually in the County. While other circumstances cause wet road surface conditions (i.e., melting snow, condensation, light showers, etc.), law enforcement officials agree that hazardous driving conditions caused by severe storms add to the number of crashes. Figure SS-13 provides a breakdown by year of the number of crashes and corresponding injuries and fatalities that occurred when wet road surface conditions were present.

What is the level of risk/vulnerability to public health and safety from severe storms? For Kendall County the level of risk or vulnerability posed by severe storms to public health and safety is considered to be low. This assessment is based on the fact that despite their relative frequency, the number of injuries and fatalities is low. In addition, nearby hospitals in Aurora, Elgin, and Geneva (Kane County), DeKalb and Sandwich (DeKalb County), Mendota and Ottawa (LaSalle County), Morris (Grundy County), and Bolingbrook, Joliet, and New Lenox (Will County) are equipped to provide care to persons injured during a severe storm. Are existing buildings, infrastructure, and critical facilities vulnerable to severe storms? Yes. All existing buildings, infrastructure and critical facilities located in Kendall County and the participating jurisdictions are vulnerable to damage from severe storms. Structural damage to buildings is a relatively common occurrence with severe storms. Damage to roofs, siding, awnings, and windows can occur from hail, flying and falling debris and high winds. Lightning strikes can damage electrical components and equipment (i.e., appliances, computers etc.) and can cause fires that consume buildings. If the roof is compromised or windows are broken, rain can cause additional damage to the structure and contents of a building. Infrastructure and critical facilities tend to be just as vulnerable to severe storm damage as buildings. The infrastructure and critical facilities that are the most vulnerable to severe storms are related to power distribution and communications. High winds, lightning and flying and falling debris have the potential to cause damage to communication and power lines; power substations; transformers and poles; and communication antennas and towers. The damage inflicted by severe storms often leads to disruptions in communication and creates power outages. Depending on the damage, it can take anywhere from several hours to several days to restore service. Power outages and disruptions in communications can impair vital services, particularly when backup power generators are not available. SS-14, located at the end of this section, identifies by participating jurisdiction critical facilities and infrastructure for select categories that are supported by backup power generators. Ten of the 22 participating jurisdictions acknowledged the need for emergency backup generators to allow continued operation of critical facilities and infrastructure such as administrative and maintenance buildings, schools, and fire stations. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 79 In addition to affecting power distribution and communications, debris and flooding from severe storms can block state and local roads hampering travel. When transportation is disrupted, emergency and medical services are delayed, rescue efforts are hindered, and government services can be affected. Based on the frequency with which severe storms occur in Kendall County, the amount of property damage previously reported and the potential for disruptions to power distribution and communication; the risk or vulnerability to buildings, infrastructure and critical facilities from severe storms is medium. Are future buildings, infrastructure, and critical facilities vulnerable to severe storms? Yes and No. While the County, Montgomery, Newark, Oswego, Plano, and Yorkville have building codes in place that will likely help lessen the vulnerability of new buildings and critical facilities to damage from severe storms, Lisbon and Plattville do not. However, infrastructure such as new communication and power lines will continue to be vulnerable to severe storms as long as they are located above ground. High winds, lightning and flying and falling debris can disrupt power and communication. Steps to bury all new lines would eliminate the vulnerability, but this action would be cost prohibitive in most areas. What are the potential dollar losses to vulnerable structures from severe storms? Unlike other natural hazards, such as tornadoes, there are no standard loss estimation models or methodologies for severe storms. With only 27 of the 168 recorded events listing property damage numbers for all categories of severe storms, there is no way to accurately estimate future potential dollar losses. However, according to County officials the total equalized assessed values of all residential, commercial, and industrial buildings in the planning area is $4,444,350,435. Since all of the structures in the planning area are vulnerable to damage, this total represents the countywide property exposure to severe storm events.

Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 81 3.2 FLOODS HAZARD IDENTIFICATION What is the definition of a flood? The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) defines a “flood” as a general or temporary condition where two or more acres of normally dry land or two or more properties are inundated by:  overflow of inland or tidal waters;  unusual and rapid accumulation or runoff of surface waters from any source;  mudflows; or  a sudden collapse or subsidence of shoreline land. The severity of a flooding event is determined by a combination of topography and physiography, ground cover, precipitation and weather patterns and recent soil moisture conditions. On average, flooding causes more than $5 billion in damages each year in the U.S. Floods cause utility damage and outages, infrastructure damage (both to transportation and communication systems), structural damage to buildings, crop loss, decreased land values and impede travel. What types of flooding occur in the County? There are two main types of flooding that affect Kendall County: general flooding and flash flooding. General flooding can be broken down into two categories: riverine flooding and shallow flooding. The following provides a brief description of each type. General Flooding – Riverine Flooding Riverine flooding occurs when the water in a river or stream gradually rises and overflows its banks. This type of flooding affects low lying areas near rivers, streams, lakes, and reservoirs and generally occurs when:  persistent storm systems enter the area and remain for extended periods of time,  winter and spring rains combine with melting snow to fill river basins with more water than the river or stream can handle,  ice jams create natural dams which block normal water flow, and  torrential rains from tropical systems make landfall. General Flooding – Shallow Flooding Shallow flooding occurs in flat areas where there are no clearly defined channels (i.e., rivers and streams) and water cannot easily drain away. There two main types of shallow flooding: sheet flow and ponding. If the surface runoff cannot find a channel, it may flow out over a large area at a somewhat uniform depth in what’s called sheet flow. In other cases, the runoff may collect in depressions and low-lying areas where it cannot drain out, creating a ponding effect. Ponding floodwaters do not move or flow away, they remain in the temporary ponds until the water can infiltrate the soil, evaporate, or are pumped out. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 82 Flash Floods Flash flooding occurs when there is a rapid rise of water along a stream or low-lying area. This type of flooding generally occurs within six hours of a significant rain event and is usually produced when heavy localized precipitation falls over an area in a short amount of time. Considered the most dangerous type of flood event, flash floods happen quickly with little or no warning. Typically, there is no time for the excess water to soak into the ground nor are the storm sewers able to handle the sheer volume of water. As a result, streams overflow their banks and low-lying (such as underpasses, basements etc.) areas can rapidly fill with water. Flash floods are very strong and can tear out trees, destroy buildings and bridges and roll boulders the size of cars. Flash flood-producing rains can also weaken soil and trigger debris flows that damage homes, roads, and property. A vehicle caught in swiftly moving water can be swept away in a matter of seconds. Twelve inches of water can float a car or small SUV and 18 inches of water can carry away large vehicles. What is a base flood? A base flood refers to any flood having a 1% chance of occurring in any given year. It is also known as the 100-year flood or the one percent annual chance flood. The base flood is the national standard used by the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) and the State of Illinois for the purposes of requiring the purchase of flood insurance and regulating new development. Many individuals misinterpret the term “100-year flood”. This term is used to describe the risk of future flooding; it does not mean that it will occur once every 100 years. Statistically speaking, a 100-year flood has a 1/100 (1%) chance of occurring in any given year. In reality, a 100-year flood could occur two times in the same year or two years in a row, especially if there are other contributing factors such as unusual changes in weather conditions, stream channelization or changes in land use (i.e., open space land developed for housing or paved parking lots). It is also possible not to have a 100-year flood event over the course of 100 years. While the base flood is the standard most commonly used for floodplain management and regulatory purposes in the U.S., the 500-year flood is the national standard for protecting critical facilities, such as hospitals and power plants. A 500-year flood has a 1/500 (0.2%) chance of occurring in any given year. What is a floodplain? The general definition of a floodplain is any land area susceptible to being inundated or flooded by water from any source (i.e., river, stream, lake, estuary, etc.). This general definition differs slightly from the regulatory definition of a floodplain. A regulatory or base floodplain is defined as the land area that is covered by the floodwaters of the base flood. This land area is subject to a 1% chance of flooding in any given year. The base floodplain is also known as the 100-year floodplain or a Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA). It is this second definition that is generally most familiar to people and the one that is used by the NFIP and the State of Illinois. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 83 A base floodplain is divided into two parts: the floodway and the flood fringe. Figure F-1 illustrates the various components of a base floodplain. Source: Illinois Department of Natural Resources, Quick Guide to Floodplain Management. The floodway is the channel of a river or stream and the adjacent floodplain that is required to store and convey the base flood without increasing the water surface elevation. Typically, the floodway is the most hazardous portion of the floodplain because it carries the bulk of the base flood downstream and is usually the area where water is deepest and is moving the fastest. Floodplain regulations prohibit construction within the floodway that results in an increase in the floodwater’s depth and velocity. The flood fringe is the remaining area of the base floodplain, outside of the floodway, which is subject to shallow inundation and low velocity flows. In general, the flood fringe plays a relatively insignificant role in storing and discharging floodwaters. The flood fringe can be quite wide on large streams and quite small or nonexistent on small streams. Development within the flood fringe is typically allowed via permit if it will not significantly increase the floodwater’s depth or velocity and the development is elevated above or otherwise protected to the base flood elevation. What is a Special Flood Hazard Area? A Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) is the base floodplain. As discussed previously, this is the land area that is covered by the floodwaters of the base flood and has a 1% chance of flooding in any given year. The term SFHA is most commonly used when referring to the based floodplain on the Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRM) produced by FEMA. The SFHA is the area where floodplain regulations must be enforced by a community as a condition of participation in the NFIP and the area where mandatory flood insurance purchase requirements apply. SFHA are delineated Figure F-1 Floodplain Illustration Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 84 on the FIRMs and may be designated as Zones A, AE, A1-30, AO, AH, AR, and A99 depending on the amount of flood data available, the severity of the flood hazard or the age of the flood map. What are Flood Insurance Rate Maps? Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs) are maps that identify both the SFHA and the risk premium zones applicable to a community. These maps are produced by FEMA in association with the NFIP for floodplain management and insurance purposes. Digital versions of these maps are referred to as DFIRMs. Figure F-2 shows an example of a FIRM. Source: Illinois Department of Natural Resources, Quick Guide to Floodplain Management. A FIRM will generally show a community’s base flood elevations, flood zones and floodplain boundaries. The information presented on a FIRM is based on historic, meteorological, hydrologic, and hydraulic data as well as open-space conditions, flood-control projects, and development. These maps only define flooding that occurs when a creek or river becomes overwhelmed. They do not define overland flooding that occurs when an area receives extraordinarily intense rainfall and storm sewers, and roadside ditches are unable to handle the surface runoff. What are flood zones? Flood zones are geographic areas that FEMA has defined according to varying levels of flood risk and type of flooding. These zones are depicted on a community’s FIRM. The following provides a brief description of each flood zone.  Zone A. Zone A, also known as the Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) or base floodplain, is defined as the floodplain area that has a 1% chance of flooding in any given year. There are multiple Zone A designations, including Zones A, AO, AH, A1-30, AE, AR or A99. Land areas located within Zone A are considered high-risk flood areas. Figure F-2 Example of a Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 85 During a 30-year period, the length of many mortgages, there is at least a 1 in 4 chance that flooding will occur in a SFHA. The purchase of flood insurance is mandatory for all buildings in SFHAs receiving federal or federally-related financial assistance.  Zone X (shaded). Zone X (shaded), formerly known as Zone B, is defined as the floodplain area between the limits of the base flood (Zone A) and the 0.2% chance or 500- year flood. Land areas located within Zone X (shaded) are affected by the 500-year flood and are considered at a moderate risk for flooding. Zone X (shaded) is also used to designate base floodplains of lesser hazards, such as areas protected by levees from 100-year flood, shallow flooding areas with average depths of less than one foot or drainage areas less than one square mile. While flood insurance is not federally required in Zone X (shaded), it is recommended for all property owners and renters.  Zone X (unshaded). Zone X (unshaded), formerly known as Zone C, is defined as all other land areas outside of Zone A and Zone X (shaded). Land areas located in Zone X (unshaded) are considered to have a low or minimal risk of flooding. While flood insurance is not federally required in Zone X (unshaded), it is recommended for all property owners and renters. What is a Repetitive Loss Structure or Property? FEMA defines a “repetitive loss structure” as a National Flood Insurance Program-insured structure that has received two or more flood insurance claim payments of more than $1,000 each within any 10-year period since 1978. These structures/properties account for approximately one- fourth of all National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) insurance claim payments since 1978. Currently, repetitive loss properties make up about 2% of all NFIP policies, and account for approximately $9 billion in claims or approximately 16% of the total claims paid over the history of the Program. These structures not only increase the NFIP’s annual losses, but they also drain funds needed to prepare for catastrophic events. As a result, FEMA and the NFIP are working with states and local governments to mitigate these properties. What is floodplain management? Floodplain management is the administration of an overall community program of corrective and preventative measures to reduce flood damage. These measures take a variety of forms and generally include zoning, subdivision or building requirements, special-purpose floodplain ordinances, flood control projects, education, and planning. Where floodplain development is permitted, floodplain management provides a framework that minimizes the risk to life and property from floods by maintaining a floodplain’s natural function. Floodplain management is a key component of the National Flood Insurance Program. What is the National Flood Insurance Program? The National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) is a federal program, administered by FEMA, that:  mitigates future flood losses nationwide through community-enforced building and zoning ordinances; and Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 86  provides access to affordable, federally-backed insurance protection against losses from flooding to property owners in participating communities. It is designed to provide an insurance alternative to disaster assistance to meet escalating costs of repairing damage to buildings and their contents due to flooding. The U.S. Congress established the NFIP on August 1, 1968 with the passage of the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968. This Program has been broadened and modified several times over the years, most recently with the passage of the Flood Insurance Reform Act of 2004. Prior to the creation of the NFIP, the national response to flood disasters was generally limited to constructing flood-control projects such as dams, levees, sea-walls, etc. and providing disaster relief to flood victims. While flood-control projects were able to initially reduce losses, their gains were offset by unwise and uncontrolled development practices within floodplains. In light of the continued increase in flood losses and the escalating costs of disaster relief to taxpayers, the U.S. Congress created the NFIP. The intent was to reduce future flood damage through community floodplain management ordinances and provide protection for property owners against potential losses through an insurance mechanism that requires a premium to be paid for protection. Participation in the NFIP is voluntary and based on an agreement between local communities and the federal government. If a community agrees to adopt and enforce a floodplain management ordinance to reduce future flood risks to new construction in a SFHA (base floodplain), then the government will make flood insurance available within the community as a financial protection against flood losses. If a community chooses not to participate in the NFIP or a participating community decides not to adopt new floodplain management regulations or amend its existing regulations to reference new flood hazard data provided by FEMA, then the following sanctions will apply.  Property owners will not be able to purchase NFIP flood insurance policies and existing policies will not be renewed.  Federal disaster assistance will not be provided to repair or reconstruct insurable buildings located in identified flood hazard areas for presidentially-declared disasters that occur as a result of flooding.  Federal mortgage insurance and loan guarantees, such as those written by the Federal Housing Administration and the Department of Veteran Affairs, will not be provided for acquisition or construction purposes within an identified flood hazard area. Federally-insured or regulated lending institutions, such as banks and credit unions, are allowed to make conventional loans for insurable buildings in identified flood hazard areas of non-participating communities. However, the lender must notify applicants that the property is in an identified flood hazard area and that it is not eligible for federal disaster assistance.  Federal grants or loans for development will not be available in identified flood hazard areas under programs administered by federal agencies such as the Environmental Protection Agency, Small Business Administration and the Department of Housing and Urban Development. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 87 What is the NFIP’s Community Rating System? The NFIP’s Community Rating System (CRS) is a voluntary program developed by FEMA to provide incentives (in the form of flood insurance premium discounts) for NFIP participating communities that have gone beyond the minimum NFIP floodplain management requirements to develop extra measures to provide protection from flooding. CRS discounts on flood insurance premiums range from 5% up to 45%. The discounts provide an incentive for communities to implement new flood protection activities that can help save lives and property when a flood occurs. Are alerts issued for flooding? Yes. The National Weather Service Weather Forecast Office in Chicago, Illinois is responsible for issuing flood watches and warnings for Kendall County depending on the weather conditions. The following provides a brief description of each type of alert.  Flood Watch. A flood watch is issued when atmospheric and hydrologic conditions are favorable for long duration river flooding or areal flooding (the gradual ponding or buildup of water in low-lying, flood-prone areas as well as small creeks and streams that develops gradually, usually from prolonged and persistent moderate to heavy rainfall).  Flash Flood Watch. A flash flood watch is issued when atmospheric and hydrologic conditions are favorable for short duration flash flooding and/or a dam break is possible.  Flood Advisory. A flood advisory is issued when thunderstorms have produced heavy rainfall that may result in ponding of water on roadways and in low-lying areas, as well as rises in small stream levels but is not expected to pose an immediate threat to life and/or property.  Flood Warning. A flood warning is issued when long duration river flooding or areal flooding (the gradual ponding or buildup of water in low-lying, flood-prone areas as well as small creeks and streams) is occurring or is imminent and may result from excessive rainfall, rapid snow melt, ice jams on rivers or other similar causes.  Flash Flood Warning. A flash flood warning is issued when short duration flash flooding has developed due to excessive rainfall, or a dam break has occurred. HAZARD PROFILE The following identifies past occurrences of floods; details the severity or extent of each event (if known); identifies the locations potentially affected; and estimates the likelihood of future occurrences. When has flooding occurred previously? What is the extent of these previous floods? Tables 5 and 6, located in Appendix J, summarize the previous occurrences as well as the extent or magnitude of flood events recorded in Kendall County. The flood events are separated into two categories: general floods (riverine and shallow/overland) and flash floods. General Floods NOAA’s Storm Events Database, NWS’s Advanced Hydrologic Prediction Service, and U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) river gage data were used to document 41 occurrences of general Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 88 flooding in Kendall County between 1997 and 2022. Included in the 41 general flood events is one event that contributed to a major federal disaster declaration in Kendall County. Based on historical gage data, the record setting Fox River flood at Montgomery occurred on April 18, 2013 when the River crested at 15.14 feet. The second and third highest crests at this location occurred in 2008 and 2007 respectively. Flash Floods NOAA’s Storm Events Database and Iowa State University’s National Weather Service Watch, Warning, and Advisories database were used to document 49 reported occurrences of flash flooding in Kendall County between 1996 and 2022. Included in the 49 flash flood events are four events that contributed to three major federal disaster declarations in Kendall County. One of the declarations, September 2008, also included a general flood event. One of the 49 flash flood events, April 2013, contributed to a state disaster proclamation in Kendall County. This proclamation also coincided with a major federal disaster declaration. Figure F-3 charts the reported occurrences of flooding by month Of the 41 general flood events, 13 (32%) began in May and June making this the peak period for general flooding. Of those 13 events, 8 (62%) began during May making this the peak month for general flooding. There were four events that spanned two or more months; however, for illustration purposes only the month the event started in is graphed.

Of these 29 events, 10 (34%) occurred in June and 10 (34%) occurred in July, making these the peak months for flash flooding. Of the flash flood events with recorded times, 66% began during the p.m. hours. What locations are affected by floods? While specific locations are affected by general flooding, most areas of the County can be impacted by overland and flash flooding because of the topography and seasonally high water table of the area. In Kendall County, approximately 6.0% of the area in the County is designated as being within the base floodplain and susceptible to riverine floods. Figure F-4 identifies the floodplains in Kendall County as well as the participating jurisdictions. This map is based on the most current Kendall County DFRIMs that became effective February 4, 2009 and January 8, 2014. While a large portion of the area prone to riverine flooding is in unincorporated portions of the County, Lisbon, Millbrook, Millington, Montgomery, Newark, Oswego, Plano, Plattville, Yorkville are also susceptible to riverine flooding because of their proximity to floodplains. Appendix K contains maps identifying the floodplains located in each of the participating municipalities. Figure F-5 identifies the bodies of water within or immediately adjacent to participating jurisdictions that are known to cause flooding or have the potential to flood. Water bodies with Special Flood Hazard Areas located within a participating jurisdiction (as identified on the DFIRMs) are identified in bold.

This overland flooding is known to impair travel. What jurisdictions within the County take part in the NFIP? Participating Jurisdictions Kendall County, Lisbon, Montgomery, Newark, Oswego, Plano, Plattville, and Yorkville participate in the NFIP. Figure F-6 provides information on each NFIP-participating jurisdiction, including the date each participant joined, the date of their current effective FIRM and the year of their most recently adopted floodplain zoning ordinance.

This ordinance goes above and beyond NFIP minimum standards and has much more restrictive floodway regulations. As a result, all of the NFIP- participating jurisdictions are in compliance with NFIP requirements. Discussions with the individuals responsible for implementation of the NFIP commitments and requirements within their jurisdiction and a review of the participating jurisdictions floodplain ordinances indicates that each monitor flood events and, when applicable, conduct substantial damage determinations for structures within the floodplain using FEMA’s Substantial Damage Estimator Tool. For structures that meet the definition of substantial damage (total cost of repairs is 50% or more of the structure’s market value before the disaster occurred, regardless of the cause of damage), the owners are notified, and the structure must be brought back into compliance with local floodplain management regulations. Participating jurisdictions will continue to comply with the NFIP by implementing mitigation projects and activities that enforce this ordinance to reduce future flood risks to new construction Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 92 within the SFHA. At this time no new construction is planned within the base floodplain. Continued compliance with NFIP requirements is addressed in the Mitigation Action Tables of the participating jurisdictions found in Section 4.7. Non-Participating Jurisdictions Figure F-7 provides information on those incorporated municipalities within the County that chose not to participate in the planning process but take part in the NFIP.

What is the probability of future flood events occurring based on historical data? General Floods Kendall County has had 41 verified occurrences of general flooding between 1997 and 2022. With 41 occurrences over the past 26 years, the County should expect at least one general flood event in any given year. There were 10 years over the past 26 years where two or more general flood events occurred. This indicates that the probability or likelihood that more than one general flood event may occur during any given year within the County is 38%. Flash Floods There have been 49 verified flash flood events between 1996 and 2022. With 49 occurrences over the past 27 years, the County should expect at least one flash flood event in any given year. There were 15 years over the past 27 years where two or more flash flood events occurred. This indicates that the probability that more than one flash flood event may occur during any given year within the County is approximately 56%. What is the probability of future flood events occurring based on modeled future conditions? In the last 120 years, total annual precipitation in Illinois has increased by between 12% to 15% across the State. This means, according to the Illinois State Climatologist, that we get about an additional 5 inches of yearly rainfall compared to what was expected historically. This trend is likely to continue, and as a result, precipitation in Illinois is forecasted to increase in coming decades. In addition to changes in the overall amount of precipitation, changes in precipitation patterns indicate that future events will likely be less frequent, but larger and more severe. The Illinois State Climatologist indicates that since the beginning of the 20th Century, Illinois has seen a 40% increase in the number of days with extreme precipitation events (rainfall of 2 inches or greater) per year. One result of more precipitation overall and an increase in heavy rain events is an increased risk of flooding. In particular, extreme precipitation events are likely to lead to flash floods along rivers and in urban areas, where impermeable surfaces such as buildings, roads, and sidewalks will make Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 93 drainage systems more likely to be overwhelmed. Rural areas will face different challenges, most notably those close to rivers and in low-lying areas with little or no drainage capability. Figures SS-8 and SS-9, located in Section 3.1, provide tabular and graphical projections for Kendall County, showing estimations for average annual precipitation in the early, mid, and late 21st century with both low and high estimates for each time period. Most likely, the true value will fall between these two estimates. By midcentury, the average annual precipitation in Kendall County is projected to increase by 2 inches per year, while the average number of days with precipitation per year is projected to decrease by 3 to 4 days according to the Climate Mapping for Resilience and Adaptation’s Assessment Tool. By midcentury, the annual number of days with total precipitation greater than 1 inch is projected to increase by one day. The annual number of days with total precipitation greater than 2 inches is not projected to increase significantly. This is confirmed by the Climate Explorer, which indicates that in Kendall County the annual counts of intense rainstorms (rainfall of 2 inches or greater in once day) are not projected to increase. This is based on the findings of the 2018 National Climate Assessment and compares projections for the middle third of the century (2035- 2064) with average conditions observed from 1961-1990. Taken together, the projected increase in annual rainfall, the decrease in frequency of rain events, and the negligible threat of intense rain events in Kendall County means that the likelihood of flooding may be slightly higher than it is today. HAZARD VULNERABILITY The following describes the vulnerability to participating jurisdictions, identifies the impacts on public health and property (if known) and estimates the potential impacts on public health and safety as well as buildings, infrastructure, and critical facilities from floods. Several factors including topography, precipitation, and an abundance of rivers and streams make Illinois especially vulnerable to flooding. According to the Illinois State Water Survey’s Climate Atlas of Illinois, since the 1940s Illinois climate records have shown an increase in heavy precipitation, which has led to increased flood peaks on Illinois rivers. Are the participating jurisdictions vulnerable to flooding? Yes. Kendall County and the participating jurisdictions are vulnerable to the dangers presented by flooding. Precipitation levels and topography are factors that cumulatively make virtually the entire County susceptible to some form of flooding. Flooding occurs along the floodplains of all the rivers, streams, and creeks within the County as well as outside of the floodplains in low-lying areas where drainage problems occur. Since 2013, Kendall County has experienced 25 general flood events and 20 flash flood events. All of the general flood and flash flood events impacted either a large portion of the County or the entire County and were not location specific. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 94 The 2023 Illinois Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan prepared by IEMA-OHS classifies Kendall County’s hazard rating for riverine flooding and flash flooding as “medium”. IEMA-OHS’s overall hazard rating system has five levels: very low, low, medium, high, and very high. For riverine floods, the FEMA’s National Risk Index (NRI) rates the County as a whole as “Relatively Low”. Four of the 24 census tracts are rated “Relatively Moderate”, 17 are rated “Relatively Low”, two are rated “Very Low”, and one is not rated for riverine floods. Table R-5 presents the overall NRI scores and ratings for each census tract as well as for the County as a whole. Vulnerability to flooding can change depending on several factors, including land use. As land used primarily for agricultural and open space purposes is converted for residential and commercial/industrial uses, the number of buildings and impervious surfaces (i.e., parking lots, roads, sidewalks, etc.) increases. As the number of buildings and impervious surfaces increases, so too does the potential for flash flooding. Rather than infiltrating the ground slowly, rain and snowmelt that falls on impervious surfaces runs off and fills ditches and storm drains quickly creating drainage problems and flooding. According to the Multi-Resolution Land Characteristics (MRLC) Consortium, in 2021 approximately 13.3% of the County’s land cover was considered developed with 6.3% impervious surfaces. Areas with impervious surface rates approaching or exceeding 12 to 15 percent will likely experience negative impacts to water quality. Between 2011 and 2021 approximately 3.2 square miles or approximately 1% of the land cover in the County changed with 0.55 square miles of development and 0.79 square miles of impervious surfaces gained. As described in Section 1.3 Land Use and Development Trends, substantial changes in land use (from forested, open, and agricultural land to residential, commercial, and industrial) are not anticipated within the unincorporated County in the immediate future. Substantial increases in residential or commercial/industrial developments are expected in Montgomery, Oswego, Plano, and Yorkville within the next five years; however these development would not be in flood-prone areas and would be governed each jurisdiction’s floodplain and stormwater ordinances. Have any of the participating jurisdictions identified specific assets vulnerable to the impacts of flooding? Yes. Based on responses to an Assets Vulnerability Survey distributed to the participating jurisdictions, the following jurisdictions considered specific assets within their jurisdiction vulnerable to flooding. Kendall County:  The Edith Farnsworth House, a National Historic Landmark, is located in the base floodplain of the Fox River and has experienced flooding on multiple occasions over the years.  Rural roadways outside of Lisbon flood, impacting travel.  The Fox Metro Water Reclamation District’s wastewater treatment plant, which serves nearly 300,000 residents in Kendall and Kane Counties, is located in the base floodplain of the Fox River and vulnerable to flooding.  Portions of Illinois Route 25 in Oswego near the BNSF/Amtrak railroad tracks flood, impacting travel. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 95 Lisbon:  Village Hall is located in a floodplain and has been damaged by flooding.  Road within the Village are vulnerable to flooding from heavy rain events. Lisbon-Seward Fire Protection District:  Roads in the District are frequently obstructed by flooding waters which impact travel and delay emergency response times.  Both fire stations are located adjacent to base floodplains and have suffered flood damage. Montgomery:  The Village’s drinking water wells are located in areas along the Fox River where flooding has occurred. Newark Fire Protection District:  Flooding has overtopped roads in the District and washed out culverts and bridges, which can impact travel for both residents and emergency responders. Oswego:  The Fox Metro Water Reclamation District’s wastewater treatment plant, which serves nearly 300,000 residents including Oswego, is located in the base floodplain of the Fox River and vulnerable to flooding.  Flooding along the Fox River has caused the evacuation of homes on South Adams Street. Oswego Fire Protection District:  Flooding has delayed call backs for extra manpower impeding emergency response times. Oswegoland Park District:  Our parks near or along the Fox River and Waubonsie Creek are vulnerable to flooding. Plano:  The City’s wastewater treatment plant and a portion of the public works facility is located in the base floodplain of Big Rock Creek and vulnerable to flooding. Kendall Township completed a Roadway Overtopping Survey in which they identified two roads within its township, Ament Road near Cross Lutheran School and Helmar Road east of Ashley Road, where flooding causes overtopping of the roadway that exceeds six inches. In both cases the overtopping occurs at a culvert location and is caused by surface water runoff from a heavy rain event or snow melt, not a specific body of water. The Township Clerk indicated that the roads are marked with appropriate warnings of standing water during events. The culverts have been increased in size and ditch cleaning has been conducted to improve drainage in these areas. What impacts resulted from the recorded floods? Floods as a whole have caused a minimum of $4.1 million in property damages. The following provides a Flood Fast Facts – Impacts/Risk General Flood Impacts: Total Property Damage (1 events): $92,293 Total Crop Damage: n/a Injuries: n/a Fatalities: n/a Flash Flood Impacts: Total Property Damage (3 events): $4,035,584 Total Crop Damage: n/a Injuries: n/a Fatalities: n/a Flood Risk/Vulnerability to: Public Health & Safety – General Flooding: Low Public Health & Safety – Flash Flooding: Medium Buildings/Infrastructure/Critical Facilities: Medium to High Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 96 breakdown by category. In comparison, the State of Illinois has averaged an estimated $257 million annually in property damage losses, making flooding the single most financially damaging natural hazard in Illinois. General Floods Data obtained from NOAA’s Storm Events Database and Committee member records indicates that between 1997 and 2022, one of the 41 general flood events caused $92,293 in property damages. Damage information was either unavailable or none was recorded for the remaining 40 reported occurrences. No injuries or fatalities were reported as a result of any of the recorded events. Flash Floods Data obtained from NOAA’s Storm Events Database and Committee member records indicates that between 1996 and 2022, three of the 49 flash flood events caused $4,035,584 in property damages. Damage information was either unavailable or none was recorded for the remaining 46 reported occurrences. No injuries or fatalities were reported as a result of any of the recorded events. What other impacts can result from flooding? One of the primary threats from flooding is drowning. Nearly half of all flash flood fatalities occur in vehicles as they are swept downstream. Most of these fatalities take place when people drive into flooded roadway dips and low drainage areas. It only takes two feet of water to carry away most vehicles. Floodwaters also pose biological and chemical risks to public health. Flooding can force untreated sewage to mix with floodwaters. The polluted floodwaters then transport the biological contaminants into buildings and basements and onto streets and public areas. If left untreated, the floodwaters can serve as breeding grounds for bacteria and other disease-causing agents. Even if floodwaters are not contaminated with biological material, basements and buildings that are not properly cleaned can grow mold and mildew, which can pose a health hazard, especially for small children, the elderly, and those with specific allergies. Flooding can also cause chemical contaminants such as gasoline and oil to enter the floodwaters if underground storage tanks or pipelines crack and begin leaking during a flood event. Depending on the time of year, floodwaters also may carry away agricultural chemicals that have been applied to farm fields. Structural damage, such as cracks forming in a foundation, can also result from flooding. In most cases, however, the structural damage sustained during a flood occurs to the flooring, drywall, and wood framing. In addition to structural damage, a flood can also cause serious damage to a building’s content. Infrastructure and critical facilities are also vulnerable to flooding. Roadways, culverts, and bridges can be weakened by floodwaters and have been known to collapse under the weight of a vehicle. Buried power and communication lines are also vulnerable to flooding. Water can infiltrate lines and cause disruptions in power and communication. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 97 What is the level of vulnerability to public health and safety from floods? While both general and flash floods occur on a regular basis within the County, the number of injuries and fatalities is low. In terms of the risk or vulnerability to public health and safety from general floods, the risk is seen as low. However, more than half of the recorded flood events were the result of flash flooding. Since there is very little warning associated with flash flooding the risk to public health and safety from flash floods is elevated to medium. Are there any repetitive loss structures/properties within Kendall County? Yes. According to information obtained from IEMA-OHS, there is one repetitive loss structure located in Lisbon, one in Montgomery, one in Yorkville, two in Lisbon, two in Plano, and 14 in unincorporated Kendall County. As described previously, FEMA defines a “repetitive loss structure” as an NFIP-insured structure that has received two or more flood insurance claim payments of more than $1,000 each within any 10-year period since 1978. Figure F-8 identifies the repetitive flood loss structures by jurisdiction and provides the total flood insurance claim payments. The exact location and/or address of the insured structures are not included in this Plan to protect the owners’ privacy. According to FEMA, there have been 55 flood insurance claim payments totaling $1,161,193.79 for the 21 repetitive flood loss structures.

Yes. Figure F-9 identifies the estimated number of existing structures by participating jurisdiction located within a base floodplain. These counts were prepared by the Consultant using FEMA’s National Flood Hazard Layer and building footprints prepared by the Illinois State Water Survey. Figure F-10 identifies the estimated number of existing structures by township located within the base floodplain. It should be noted that while the identified structures are located in a floodplain, the actual number impacted may differ during a real flood event. Aside from key roads, bridges, electrical substations, and buried power and communication lines, the following provides a description of those participating jurisdictions that have specific infrastructure/critical facilities located within a floodplain.

Lisbon-Seward FPD: Fire Station #1 in Lisbon is located in the base floodplain of an unnamed tributary of Saratoga Creek. Montgomery: One of the Village’s lift stations is located in the Fox River base floodplain while a water tower and communications tower are located in the base floodplain of an unnamed tributary of Waubonsie Creek. Newark CHSD #18: A portion of the High School is located in the base floodplain of Clear Creek. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 99 Oswego: The Cole Avenue drinking water treatment facility and water tower are located in the base floodplain of Morgan Creek. Plano: A majority of the City’s wastewater treatment plant and two City maintenance garages are located in the base floodplain of Big Rock Creek. While 6.0% of the land area in Kendall County lies within the base floodplain and is susceptible to riverine flooding, almost the entire County is vulnerable to flash flooding. As a result, a majority of the buildings, infrastructure and critical facilities that may be impacted by flooding are located outside of the base floodplain and are not easily identifiable. The risk or vulnerability of existing buildings, infrastructure and critical facilities to all forms of flooding is considered to be medium to high based on: (a) the frequency and severity of recorded flood events within the County; (b) the County’s proximity to the Fox River and its tributaries; (c) the fact that most of the County is vulnerable to flash flooding; and (d) a majority of the buildings, infrastructure and critical facilities that may be impacted are located outside of the base floodplain. Are future buildings, infrastructure and critical facilities vulnerable to flooding? The answer to this question depends on the type of flooding being discussed. Riverine Flooding In terms of riverine flooding, the vulnerability of future buildings, infrastructure and critical facilities located within NFIP-participating jurisdictions is low as long as the existing floodplain ordinances are enforced. Enforcement of the floodplain ordinance is the mechanism that ensures that new structures either are not built in flood-prone areas or are elevated or protected to the base flood elevation. Flash Flooding In terms of flash flooding, all future buildings, infrastructure and critical facilities are still vulnerable depending on the amount of precipitation that is received, the topography and any land use changes undertaken within the participating jurisdictions. What are the potential dollar losses to vulnerable structures from flooding? An estimate of the potential dollar losses to vulnerable residential structures located within the participating municipalities and the townships within the County can be calculated if several assumptions are made. These assumptions represent a probable scenario based on the reported occurrences of flooding in Kendall County. The purpose of providing an estimate is to help residents and local officials make informed decisions about how they can better protect themselves and their communities. These estimates are meant to provide a general idea of the magnitude of the potential damage that could occur from a flood event in each of the participating municipalities and townships. Assumptions To calculate the overall potential dollar losses to vulnerable residential structures from a flood, a set of decisions/assumptions must be made regarding:  type of flood event; Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 100  scope of the flood event;  number of potentially-damaged housing units;  value of the potentially-damaged housing units; and  percent damage sustained by the potentially-damaged housing units (i.e., damage scenario.) The following provides a detailed discussion of each decision/assumption. Type of Flood Event. The first step towards calculating the potential dollar losses to vulnerable residential structures is to determine the type of flood event that will be used for this scenario. While flash flooding has occurred more frequently and has caused more recorded flood damages in the County than riverine flooding, identifying residential structures vulnerable to flash flooding is problematic because most are located outside of the base floodplain and the number of structures impacted can change with each event depending on the amount of precipitation received, the topography and the land use of the area. Therefore, a riverine flood event will be used since it is (a) relatively easy to identify vulnerable residential structures within each municipality (i.e., those structures located within the base floodplain or Special Flood Hazard Areas of any river, stream or creek); and (b) the number of structures impacted is generally the same from event to event. Scope of the Flood Event. To establish the number of vulnerable residential structures (potentially- damaged housing units), the scope of the riverine flood event must first be determined. In this scenario, the scope refers to the number of rivers, streams and creeks that overflow their banks and the degree of flooding experienced along base floodplains for each river, stream and creek. Generally speaking, a riverine flood event only affects one or two rivers or streams at a time depending on the cause of the event (i.e., precipitation, snow melt, ice jam, etc.) and usually does not produce the same degree of flooding along the entire length of the river, stream or creek. However, for this scenario, it was decided that:  all rivers, streams and creeks with base floodplains would overflow their banks, and  the base floodplains of each river, stream and/or creek located within the corporate limits of each municipality would experience the same degree of flooding. This assumption results in the following conditions for each municipality:  Lisbon: An unnamed tributary of Saratoga Creek would overflow its banks and flood portions of the Village.  Montgomery: The Fox River, Blackberry Creek, Waubonsie Creek, and an unnamed tributary of Waubonsie Creek would overflow their banks and flood portions of the Village; Assumption #1 A riverine flood event will impact vulnerable residential structures. Assumption #2 All base floodplains will flood and experience the same degree of flooding. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 101  Newark: Clear Creek and an unnamed tributary of Clear Creek would overflow their banks and flood portions of the Village;  Oswego: The Fox River, Morgan Creek, Waubonsie Creek, and an unnamed tributary of Waubonsie Creek would overflow their banks and flood portions of the Village;  Plano: Big Rock Creek and Little Rock Creek would overflow their banks and flood portions of the City;  Plattville: West Aux Sable Creek an unnamed tributary of West Aux Sable Creek would overflow their banks and flood portions of the Village; and  Yorkville: The Fox River, Big Rock Creek, and Blackberry Creek would overflow their banks and flood portions of the City. Number of Potentially-Damaged Housing Units. Since this scenario assumes that all the base floodplains will experience the same degree of flooding, the number of existing residential structures located within the base floodplain(s) can be used to determine the number of potentially- damaged housing units. Figures F-9 and F-10 identify the total number of existing residential structures located within the base floodplains(s) of each participating jurisdiction. These counts were prepared by the Consultant. Value of Potentially-Damaged Housing Units. Now that the number of potentially-damaged housing units has been determined, the monetary value of the units must be calculated. Typically, when damage estimates are prepared after a natural disaster such as a flood, they are based on the market value of the structure. Since it would be impractical to determine the individual market value of each potentially-damaged housing unit, the average market value for a residential structure will be used. To determine the average market value, the average assessed value must first be calculated. The average assessed value is determined by taking the total assessed value of residential buildings within a jurisdiction and dividing that number by the total number of housing units within the jurisdiction. The average market value is then determined by taking the averaged assessed value and multiplying that number by three (the assessed value of a structure in Kendall County is approximately one-third of the market value). Figure F-11 provides a sample calculation. The total assessed value is based on 2022 tax assessment information provided by County officials. Figures F-12 and F-13 provide the average assessed value and average market value for each participating municipality and the townships. Assumption #3 The number of existing residential structures located within the base floodplain(s) will be used to determine the number of potentially- damaged housing units. Assumption #4 The average market value for a residential structure will be used to determine the value of potentially-damaged housing units.

Damage Scenario. The final decision that must be made to calculate potential dollar losses is to determine the percent damage sustained by the structure and the structure’s contents during the flood event. In order to determine the percent damage using FEMA’s flood loss estimation tables, assumptions must be made regarding (a) the type of residential structure flooded (i.e., manufactured home, one story home without a basement, one- or two-story home with a basement, etc.) and (b) the flood depth. Figure F-14. calculates the percent loss to a structure and its contents for different scenarios based on flood depth and structure type. Assumption #5 The potentially-damaged housing units are one or two-story homes with basements and the flood depth is two feet. Structural Damage = 20% Content Damage = 30% Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 103 Figure F-13 Average Market Value of Housing Units by Township Participating Jurisdiction Total Assessed Value of Residential Buildings (2022) Total Housing Units (2017-2021) Average Assessed Values Average Market Value (2022) Big Grove1,2,8,9 $28,508,531 662 $43,064 $129,193 Bristol3,4,5, 7,12 $842,369,156 10,363 $81,286 $243,859 Fox2,5,7,9,10,11 $51,965,751 728 $71,382 $214,145 Kendall2,3,4,7,10 $272,347,149 2,957 $92,103 $276,308 Lisbon1,2,7,8 $17,351,422 214 $81,081 $243,244 Little Rock5,6,7,11 $287,600,974 5,119 $56,183 $168,549 Na-Au-Say3,10,12 $299,414,345 3,152 $94,992 $284,976 Oswego3,7,10,12 $1,516,561,697 19,490 $77,812 $233,437 Seward8 $157,235,647 1,758 $89,440 $268,320 1Lisbon CCSD #90 2Newark CHSD #18 3Oswego CUSD #308 4Parkway Christian Academy 5Plano CUSD #88 6St. Mary Catholic School 7Bristol-Kendall FPD 8Lisbon-Seward FPD 9Newark FPD 10Oswego FPD 11Sandwich Community FPD 12Oswegoland Park District Source: Kendall County Clerk Source: FEMA, Understanding Your Risks: Identifying Hazards and Estimating Losses For this scenario it is assumed that the potentially-damaged housing units are one or two-story homes with basements and the flood depth is two feet. With these assumptions the expected percent damage sustained by the structure is estimated to be 20% and the expected percent damage sustained by the structure’s contents is estimated to be 30%. Flood Building Loss Estimation Table Flood Content Loss Estimation Table Figure F-14 FEMA Flood Loss Estimation Tables Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 104 Potential Dollar Losses Now that all of the decisions/assumptions have been made, the potential dollar losses can be calculated. First the potential dollar losses to the structure of the potentially-damaged housing units must be determined. This is done by taking the average market value for a residential structure and multiplying that by the percent damage 20% to get the average structural damage per unit. Next the average structural damage per unit is multiplied by the number of potentially- damaged housing units. Figure F-15 provides a sample calculation. Figure F-15 Structure: Potential Dollar Loss Sample Calculation – Plano Average Market Value of a Housing Unit with the Jurisdiction x Percent Damage = Average Structural Damage per Housing Unit Plano: $163,563 x 20% = $32,712.60 per housing unit Average Structural Damage x Number of Potentially-Damaged Housing Units within the Jurisdiction = Structure Potential Dollar Losses (Rounded to the Nearest Dollar) Plano: $32,712.60 per housing unit x 1 housing unit = $32,713 Next the potential dollar losses to the content of the potentially-damaged housing units must be determined. Based on FEMA guidance, the value of a residential housing unit’s content is approximately 50% of its market value. Therefore, start by taking one-half the average market value for a residential structure and multiply that by the percent damage 30% to get the average content damage per unit. Then take the average content damage per unit and multiply that by the number of potentially-damaged housing units. Figure F-16 provides a sample calculation. Figure F-16 Content: Potential Dollar Loss Sample Calculation – Plano ½ (Average Market Value of a Housing Unit with the Jurisdiction) x Percent Damage = Average Content Damage per Housing Unit Plano: ½ ($163,563) x 30% = $24,534.45 per housing unit Average Content Damage per Housing Unit x Number of Potentially-Damaged Housing Units within the Jurisdiction = Content Potential Dollar Losses (Rounded to the Nearest Dollar) Plano: $24,534.45 per housing unit x 1 housing unit = $24,534 Finally, the total potential dollar losses may be calculated by adding together the potential dollar losses to the structure and the content. Figures F-17 and F-18 provide a breakdown of the total potential dollar losses by participating municipality and township. This assessment illustrates the potential dollar losses that should be considered when participating jurisdictions are deciding which mitigation projects to pursue. Potential dollar losses caused by riverine flooding to vulnerable structures within the participating municipalities would be expected to range from $48,445 in Newark to $5.0 million in Oswego.

Big Grove Township, Lisbon Township, and Na-Au-Say Township do not have any residential structures considered vulnerable to riverine flooding in this scenario. Vulnerability of Infrastructure/Critical Facilities The calculations presented above are meant to provide the reader with a sense of the scope or magnitude of a large riverine flood event in dollars. These calculations do not include the physical damages sustained by businesses or other infrastructure and critical facilities. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 106 In terms of businesses, the impacts from a flood event can be physical and/or monetary. Monetary impacts can include loss of sales revenue either through temporary closure or loss of critical services (i.e., power, drinking water and sewer). Depending on the magnitude of the flood event, the damage sustained by infrastructure and critical facilities can be extensive in nature and expensive to repair. As a result, the cumulative monetary impacts to businesses and infrastructure can exceed the cumulative monetary impacts to residences. While average dollar amounts cannot be supplied for these items at this time, they should be taken into account when discussing the overall impacts that a large-scale riverine flood event could have on the participating jurisdictions. In terms of specific infrastructure vulnerability, the following are located within a base floodplain:  Lisbon: Village Hall;  Lisbon-Seward FPD: Fire Station #1 in Lisbon;  Montgomery: lift station, water tower, and communications tower;  Newark CHSD #18: a portion the High School;  Oswego: the Cole Avenue drinking water treatment facility and water tower; and  Plano: wastewater treatment plant and two City maintenance garages. Considerations While the potential dollar loss scenario was only for a riverine flood event, the participating jurisdictions have been made aware through the planning process of the impacts that can result from flash flood events. Kendall County has experienced multiple events over the last 20 to 30 years as have adjoining and nearby counties. These events illustrate the need for officials to consider the overall monetary impacts of all forms of flooding on their communities. All participants should carefully consider the types of activities and projects that can be taken to minimize their vulnerability. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 107 3.3 SEVERE WINTER STORMS HAZARD IDENTIFICATION What is the definition of a severe winter storm? A severe winter storm can range from moderate snow over a few hours to significant accumulations of sleet and/or ice to blizzard conditions with blinding, wind-driven snow that last several days. The amount of snow or ice, air temperature, wind speed and event duration all influence the severity and type of severe winter storm that results. In general, there are three types of severe winter storms: blizzards, heavy snowstorms and ice storms. The following provides a brief description of each type as defined by the National Weather Service (NWS).  Blizzards. Blizzards are characterized by strong winds of at least 35 miles per hour and are accompanied by considerable falling and/or blowing snow that reduces visibility to ¼ mile or less. Blizzards are the most dangerous of all winter storms.  Heavy Snowstorms. Heavy snowstorms are generally defined as producing snowfall accumulations of four inches or more in 12 hours or less or six inches or more in 24 hours or less.  Ice Storms. An ice storm occurs when substantial accumulations of ice, generally ¼ inch or more, build up on the ground, trees and utility lines as a result of freezing rain. What is snow? Snow is precipitation in the form of ice crystals. These ice crystals are formed directly from the freezing of water vapor in wintertime clouds. As the ice crystals fall toward the ground, they cling to each other creating snowflakes. Snow will only fall if the temperature remains at or below 32°F from the cloud base to the ground. What is sleet? Sleet is precipitation in the form of ice pellets. These ice pellets are composed of frozen or partially frozen rain drops or refrozen partially melted snowflakes. Sleet typically forms in winter storms when snowflakes partially melt while falling through a thin layer of warm air. The partially melted snowflakes then refreeze and form ice pellets as they fall through the colder air mass closer to the ground. Sleet usually bounces after hitting the ground or other hard surfaces and does not stick to objects. What is freezing rain? Freezing rain is precipitation that falls in the form of a liquid (i.e., rain drops), but freezes into a glaze of ice upon contact with the ground or other hard surfaces. This occurs when snowflakes descend into a warmer layer of air and melt completely. When the rain drops that result from this melting fall through another thin layer of freezing air just above the surface they become “supercooled”, but they do not have time to refreeze before reaching the ground. However, because the raindrops are “supercooled”, they instantly refreeze upon contact with anything that is at or below 32°F (i.e., the ground, trees, utility lines, etc.). Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 108 Are alerts issued for severe winter storms? Yes. The NWS Weather Forecast Office in Chicago, Illinois is responsible for issuing winter storm watches and warnings for Kankakee County depending on the weather conditions. The following provides a brief description of each type of alert.  Watches. The following watches are issued when conditions are favorable for hazardous winter weather conditions but are not occurring or imminent.  Winter Storm Watch. A winter storm watch is issued when severe winter storm conditions may occur, including heavy snow, significant ice or sleet accumulations, and any of those accompanied by strong winds that may lead to significant visibility reductions.  Advisories.

Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 109 HAZARD PROFILE The following identifies past occurrences of severe winter storms; details the severity or extent of each event (if known); identifies the locations potentially affected; and estimates the likelihood of future occurrences. When have severe winter storms occurred previously? What is the extent of these previous severe winter storm? Table 7, located in Appendix J, summarize the previous occurrences as well as the extent or magnitude of severe winter storms (snow & ice) recorded in Kendall County. NOAA’s Storm Events Database, Midwestern Regional Climate Center’s cli-MATE database, and NWS’s COOP data records were used to document 75 reported occurrences of severe winter storms (snow, ice and/or a combination of both) in Kendall County between 1994 and 2022. Of the 75 recorded occurrences there were 54 heavy snowstorms or blizzards; 17 combination events (freezing rain, sleet, ice and/or snow); and 4 ice or sleet storms. Included in the 75 severe winter storms are four events that contributed to three separate federal emergency declarations in Kendall County. Five of the 75 events contributed to five separate state disaster proclamations in Kendall County. None of the federal or state declarations/proclamations coincide. Figure SWS-1 charts the reported occurrences of severe winter storms by month. Of the 75 events, 62 (83%) took place in in December, January, and February making this the peak period for severe winter storms. Of these 62 events, 22 (35%) occurred during January, making this the peak month for severe winter storms. There were two events that spanned two months; however, for illustration purposes only the month when the event started is graphed. Of the winter storm events with recorded times, 72% began during the p.m. hours. According to the NWS’s COOP data records, the maximum 24-hour snow accumulation in Kendall County is 18.1 inches, which occurred on February 1 and 2, 2011 at the Newark COOP Observation Station. What locations are affected by severe winter storms? Severe winter storms affect the entire County. All communities in Kendall County have been affected by severe winter storms. Severe winter storms generally extend across the entire County and affect multiple locations. Severe Winter Storm Fast Facts – Occurrences Number of Severe Winter Storm Events Reported (1994 -2022): 75 Maximum 24-Hour Snow Accumulation: 18.1 inches (February 1 & 2, 2011) Most Likely Month for Severe Winter Storms to Occur: January Number of Federal Emergency & Major Disaster Declarations Related to Severe Winter Storms: 4 (1979, 1999, 2000, 2006) Number of State Disaster Proclamations Related to Severe Winter Storms: 5 (2011, 2014, 2019, 2021, 2022) Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 110 What is the probability of future severe winter storms occurring based on historical data? Kendall County has had 75 verified occurrences of severe winter storms between 1994 and 2022. With 75 occurrences over the past 29 years, Kendall County should expect at least two severe winter storms in any given year. There were 18 years over the past 29 years where two or more severe winter storms occurred. This indicates the probability that two or more severe winter storms may occur during any given year within the County is 62%. What is the probability of future severe winter storms occurring based on modeled future conditions? The number of days in a year where the temperature falls below 32°F are gradually decreasing in number, meaning that though there will still be winter weather events, there will be fewer days in a given year that could produce them. Figure SWS-2 and SWS-3 provide tabular and graphical projections for Kendall County showing estimations for the number of days per year with minimum temperatures below 32°F by decade in the early, mid, and late 21st century with both low and high estimates for each time period.

Heavy snow events could actually become more common due to rising temperatures. Warmer air is more favorable to the formation of high precipitation clouds, which in winter will increase the likelihood of severe winter storm events when it gets cold enough to snow instead of rain. Snow from these events tends to be warm, wet, and heavy, but will melt relatively quickly in comparison to the finer, dustier snow that falls when temperatures are colder. HAZARD VULNERABILITY The following describes the vulnerability to participating jurisdictions, identifies the impacts on public health and property (if known) and estimates the potential impacts on public health and safety as well as buildings, infrastructure, and critical facilities from severe winter storms. Are the participating jurisdictions vulnerable to severe winter storms? Yes. All of Kendall County, including the participating jurisdictions, is vulnerable to the dangers presented by severe winter storms. Severe winter storms are among the more frequently occurring natural hazards in Illinois. Since 2013, Kendall County has experienced 29 severe winter storms. Severe winter storms have immobilized portions of the County, blocking roads; downing power lines, trees, and branches; causing power outages and property damage; and contributing to vehicle accidents. In addition, the County, township, and municipalities must budget for snow removal and de-icing of roads and bridges as well as for roadway repairs. The 2023 Illinois Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan prepared by IEMA-OHS classifies Kendall County’s hazard rating for winter storms as “medium” and ice storms as “low”. IEMA-OHS’s overall hazard rating system has five levels: very low, low, medium, high, and very high. For winter weather and ice storm FEMA’s National Risk Index (NRI) rates the County as a whole as “Relatively Low”. None of the 24 census tracts are rated higher than “Relatively Moderate” for winter weather and ice storm. Table R-5 presents the overall NRI scores and ratings for each census tract as well as for the County as a whole. Figure SWS-3 Number of Days Per Year with Minimum Temperature < 32°F Graph – Kendall County Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 112 Have any of the participating jurisdictions identified specific assets vulnerable to the impacts of severe winter storms? Yes. Based on responses to an Assets Vulnerability Survey distributed to the participating jurisdictions, the following jurisdictions considered specific assets within their jurisdiction vulnerable to severe winter storms. Kendall County:  Severe winter storms have the potential to down power lines causing electrical outages. If the permanent emergency backup generators at the Public Safety Center, which includes KenCom, do not function appropriately, then the County’s ability to respond to a hazard event is severely diminished, including the ability to dispatch emergency responders until the backup center can be staffed and activated.  Severe winter storms can down trees and utility lines causing debris to block roadways, impacting travel and delaying emergency response times to individuals who need assistance or evacuation. Kendall Township:  If the permanent emergency backup generator at the Township Building doesn’t function appropriately during a power outage caused by a severe winter storm, then township staff would be unable to perform required duties in a timely fashion and the Building could not be used as an emergency shelter/warming center for District residents. Lisbon:  Severe winter storms have the potential to down power lines impacting service to critical facilities/infrastructure, such as Village Hall. Village Hall does not have an emergency backup generator and if power is lost to the building, then it is difficult to access equipment used to respond to events out of the building.  If the permanent emergency backup generator at the wastewater treatment plant doesn’t function appropriately, then a power outage caused by a severe winter storm could impact service to residents. Lisbon-Seward Fire Protection District:  Roads in the District are frequently obstructed by utility lines downed by storm winds, which impact travel and delay emergency response times.  The two fire stations within the District are staffed by volunteers. Winter storms have the potential to impact the ability of volunteers to reach the fire stations limiting the resources available to respond to emergency calls.  Severe winter storms have the potential to down overhead utility lines impacting service to the fire stations and residents. Montgomery:  Severe winter storms have the potential to cause power outages impacting the Village’s ability so supply an adequate amount of drinking water to residents since only some of the well sites have been equipped with emergency backup generators.  Severe winter storms have downed power lines impacting service to critical facilities as well as residents.  The Village’s public works facility does not have an emergency backup generator, which could limit service if a power outage is experienced as the result of a severe winter storm. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 113 Newark:  If the permanent emergency backup generator at each well site doesn’t function appropriately, then a power outage caused by a severe winter storm could impact service to residents. Newark Fire Protection District:  Severe winter storms have the potential to down trees and power lines, which impact travel and delay emergency response times.  Blowing and drifting snow from severe winter storms can cause road closures, which impact travel and the ability to respond to emergency situations. Oswego:  Ice storms can down trees and power lines blocking roadways, impacting travel and delaying emergency response times. Oswego Fire Protection District:  Communication systems are vulnerable to damage caused by severe winter storms. Loss of radio communication with KenCom delays response times. Oswegoland Park District:  During extended power outages caused by ice storms, our computer server may be compromised depending on the duration of the outage and the longevity of battery backups. Plano CUSD #88:  Severe winter storms have the potential to down power lines causing a loss of power and impacting critical systems, such as refrigerators/freezers, HVAC, computers and communications, necessary to maintain operations at the District’s five schools.  Severe winter storms can impact travel making it difficult to ensure students are home safely. Yorkville:  Overhead electrical power lines to critical facilities/infrastructure within the City are vulnerable to damage from ice storms. What impacts resulted from the recorded severe winter storms? Damage information was either unavailable or none was recorded for any of the reported occurrences between 1994 and 2022. In addition, no injuries or fatalities were reported as a result of any of the recorded severe winter storm events. In comparison, the State of Illinois has averaged $102 million annually in winter storm losses according to the Illinois State Water Survey’s Climate Atlas of Illinois, ranking winter storms second only to flooding in terms of economic loss in the State. While behind floods in terms of the amount of property damage caused, severe winter storms have a greater ability to immobilize larger areas, with rural areas being particularly vulnerable.

In Kendall County, vehicle accidents are the largest risk to health and safety from severe winter storms. Hazardous driving conditions (i.e., reduced visibility, icy road conditions, strong winds, etc.) contribute to the increase in accidents that result in injuries and fatalities. A majority of all severe winter storm injuries result from vehicle accidents. Traffic accident data assembled by the Illinois Department of Transportation from 2017 through 2021 indicates that treacherous road conditions caused by snow/slush and ice were present for 6.4% to 12.7% of all crashes recorded annually in the County. Figure SWS-4 provides a breakdown by year of the number of crashes and corresponding injuries and fatalities that occurred when treacherous road conditions caused by snow and ice were present. Figure SWS-4 Severe Winter Weather Crash Data for Kendall County Year Total # of Crashes Presence of Treacherous Road Conditions caused by Snow/slush and Ice # of Crashes # of Injuries # of Fatalities 2017 1,907 122 30 0 2018 2,102 220 52 0 2019 2,182 277 54 0 2020 1,684 147 17 0 2021 1,940 146 33 0 Total: 9,815 912 186 0 Source: Illinois Department of Transportation. Persons who are outdoors during and immediately following severe winter storms can experience other health and safety problems. Frostbite to hands, feet, ears and nose and hypothermia are common injuries. Treacherous walking conditions also lead to falls which can result in serious injuries, including fractures and broken bones, especially in the elderly. Over exertion from shoveling driveways and walks can lead to life-threatening conditions such as heart attacks in middle-aged and older adults who are susceptible. What is the level of risk/vulnerability to public health and safety from severe winter storms? While severe winter storms occur regularly in Kendall County, the number of injuries and fatalities is relatively low. Taking into consideration the potential for hazardous driving conditions, snow- removal related injuries, and power outages that could leave individuals vulnerable to hypothermia, the risk to public health and safety of the general population from severe winter storms safety is seen as low to medium. The level of risk or vulnerability posed by severe winter storms to the public health and safety of socially vulnerable populations is considered to be medium. Socially vulnerable populations such as older adults (those 75 years of age and older) are more susceptible to slips and falls caused by treacherous walking conditions and therefore their risk is elevated. Figure SWS-5 identifies the percent of socially vulnerable populations by participating municipality, township, and the County based on the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2017-2021 American Community Survey data.

Are existing buildings, infrastructure, and critical facilities vulnerable to severe winter storms? Yes. All existing buildings, infrastructure, and critical facilities located in Kendall County and the participating jurisdictions are vulnerable to damage from severe winter storms. Structural damage to buildings caused by severe winter storms (snow and ice) is very rare but can occur particularly to flat rooftops. Information gathered from Kendall County residents indicates that snow and ice accumulations on communication and power lines as well as key roads presents the greatest vulnerability to infrastructure and critical facilities within the County. Snow and ice accumulations on lines often lead to disruptions in communications and create power outages. Depending on the damage, it can take anywhere from several hours to several days to restore service. In addition to affecting communication and power lines, snow and ice accumulations on state and local roads hampers travel and can cause dangerous driving conditions. Blowing and drifting snow can lead to road closures and increases the risk of automobile accidents. Even small accumulations of ice can be extremely dangerous to motorists since bridges and overpasses freeze before other surfaces. When transportation is disrupted, schools close, emergency, and medical services are delayed, some businesses close and government services can be affected. When a severe winter storm hits there is also an increase in cost to the County, township, and municipalities for snow removal and de-icing. Road resurfacing and pothole repairs are additional costs incurred each year as a result of severe winter storms. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 116 Based on the frequency with which severe winter storms have occurred in Kendall County; the damages described; the amount of property damage previously reported; and the potential for disruptions to power distribution and communication; the risk or vulnerability to buildings, infrastructure and critical facilities from severe winter storms is medium. Are future buildings, infrastructure, and critical facilities vulnerable to severe winter storms? Yes and No. While the County, Montgomery, Newark, Oswego, Plano, and Yorkville have building codes in place that will likely help lessen the vulnerability of new buildings and critical facilities to damage from severe storms, Lisbon and Plattville do not. However, infrastructure such as new communication and power lines will continue to be vulnerable to severe winter storms, especially to ice accumulations, as long as they are located above ground. Rural areas of the County have experienced extended periods without power due to severe winter storms. Steps to bury all new lines would eliminate the vulnerability, but this action would be cost prohibitive in most areas. In terms of new roads and bridges, there is very little that can be done to reduce or eliminate their vulnerability to severe winter storms. What are the potential dollar losses to vulnerable structures from severe winter storms? Unlike other natural hazards, such as tornadoes, there are no standard loss estimation models or methodologies for severe winter storms. Since none of the 75 recorded events listing property damage numbers for severe winter storms, it is difficult to accurately estimate future potential dollar losses. However, according to County officials the total equalized assessed values of all residential, commercial, and industrial buildings in the planning area is $4,444,350,435. Since all of the structures in the planning area are vulnerable to damage, this total represents the countywide property exposure to severe winter storms. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 117 3.4 EXTREME COLD HAZARD IDENTIFICATION What is the definition of extreme cold? Extreme cold is generally characterized by temperatures well below what is considered normal for an area during the winter months and is often accompanied or is left in the wake of a severe winter storm. Extreme cold criteria vary from region to region. As a result, reliable fixed absolute criteria are not generally specified (i.e., a winter day with a maximum temperature of 0°F). Whenever the temperature drops below normal and the wind speeds increase, heat can leave the body more rapidly. This can lead to dangerous situations for susceptible individuals, such as those without shelter or who are stranded, or those who live in a home that is poorly insulated or without heat. Extreme cold is a leading cause of weather-related fatalities in Illinois. According to a 2020 study published by the University of Illinois Chicago, 1,935 individuals died from cold-related illnesses between 2011 and 2018. This is 94% of all temperature-related fatalities recorded in the State during that time period. Extreme cold can also cause infrastructure damage, especially to residential water pipes and water distribution lines and mains. According to State Farm, in 2020 Illinois was once again the national leader in losses related to frozen pipes. What is wind chill? Wind chill, or wind chill factor, is a measure of the rate of heat loss from exposed skin resulting from the combined effects of wind and temperature. As the wind increases, heat is carried away from the body at a faster rate, driving down both the skin temperature and eventually the internal body temperature. The unit of measurement used to describe the wind chill factor is known as the wind chill temperature. The wind chill temperature is calculated using a formula. Figure EC-1 identifies the formula and calculates the wind chill temperatures for certain air temperatures and wind speeds. As an example, if the air temperature is 5°F and the wind speed is 20 miles per hour, then the wind chill temperature would be -15°F. The wind chill temperature is only defined for air temperatures at or below 50°F and wind speeds above three miles per hour. In addition, the wind chill temperature does not take into consideration the effects of bright sunlight which may increase the wind chill temperature by 10°F to 18°F. Use of the current Wind Chill Temperature (WCT) index was implemented by the NWS on November 1, 2001. The new WCT index was designed to more accurately calculate how cold air feels on human skin. The new index uses advances in science, technology and computer modeling to provide an accurate, understandable and useful formula for calculating the dangers from winter Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 118 winds and freezing temperatures. The former index was based on research done in 1945 by Antarctic researchers Siple and Passel. Exposure to extreme wind chills can be life threatening. As wind chills edge toward -19°F and below, there is an increased likelihood that exposure will lead to individuals developing cold-related illnesses. Source: NOAA, National Weather Service. What cold-related illnesses are associated with extreme cold? Frostbite and hypothermia are both cold-related illnesses that can result when individuals are exposed to dangerously low temperatures and wind chills. The following provides a brief description of the symptoms associated with each.  Frostbite. During exposure to extremely cold weather the body reduces circulation to the extremities (i.e., feet, hands, nose, cheeks, ears, etc.) in order to maintain its core temperature. If the extremities are exposed, then this reduction in circulation coupled with the cold temperatures can cause the tissue to freeze. Frostbite is characterized by a loss of feeling and a white or pale appearance. At a wind chill of -19°F, exposed skin can freeze in as little as 30 minutes. Seek medical attention immediately if frostbite is suspected. It can permanently damage tissue and in severe cases can lead to amputation. Figure EC-1 Wind Chill Chart Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 119  Hypothermia. Hypothermia occurs when the body’s temperature begins to fall because it is losing heat faster than it can produce it. If an individual’s body temperature falls below 95°F, then hypothermia has set in, and immediate medical attention should be sought. Hypothermia is characterized by uncontrollable shivering, memory loss, disorientation, incoherence, slurred speech, drowsiness and exhaustion. Left untreated, hypothermia will lead to death. Hypothermia occurs most commonly at very cold temperatures but can occur at cool temperatures (above 40°F) if an individual isn’t properly clothed or becomes chilled. What is a wind chill alert? A wind chill alert is an advisory or warning issued by the NWS when the wind chill is expected to have a significant impact on public safety. The expected severity of cold temperatures and wind speed determines the type of alert issued. There are three types of alerts that can be issued for an extreme cold event. The following provides a brief description of each type of alert based on the wind chill criteria established by the NWS Weather Forecast Office in Chicago, Illinois. The Lincoln Office is responsible for issuing alerts for Kankakee County.  Wind Chill Watch. A wind chill watch is issued when widespread wind chill values of around -30°F or colder are possible.  Wind Chill Advisory. A wind chill advisory is issued when wind chill values of around - 20°F or colder are expected.  Wind Chill Warning. A wind chill warning is issued when wind chill values are expected to be -30°F or below. HAZARD PROFILE The following identifies past occurrences of extreme cold events; details the severity or extent of each event (if known); identifies the locations potentially affected; and estimates the likelihood of future occurrences. When have extreme cold events occurred previously? What is the extent of these events? Table 8, located in Appendix J, summarize the previous occurrences as well as the extent or magnitude of regional extreme cold events extrapolated for Kendall County. NOAA’s Storm Events Database, Iowa State University’s National Weather Service Watch, Warning, and Advisories database, Midwestern Regional Climate Center’s cli- MATE database, and NWS’s COOP Data records were used to extrapolate 78 occurrences of extreme cold in Kendall County between 1995 and 2022. Two of the 78 events contributed to two separate state disaster proclamations in Kendall County. Extreme Cold Fast Facts – Occurrences Number of Regional Extreme Cold Events Reported (1995 - 2022): 78 Coldest Temperature Extrapolated for the County: -26°F (December 28, 1924 & January 20, 1985) Most Likely Months for Extreme Cold Events to Occur: January Number of State Disaster Proclamations Related to Extreme Cold: 2 (2014, 2019) Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 120 According to the Midwestern Regional Climate Center, temperature records were either not kept or are not available from any of the NWS COOP Observation Stations or networks in Kendall County, with the exception of the Observation Station at Oswego and Yorkville which kept temperature records intermittently between 1894 and 1914. As a result, temperature records from the Aurora COOP Observation Station in Kane County and the Morris 1NW COOP Observation Station in Grundy County were used to extrapolate excessive heat events in Kendall County. Based on available records, the coldest recorded temperature at Morris 1NW was -26°F on December 28, 1924 and -26°F at Aurora on January 20, 1985. Figure EC-2 charts the reported occurrences of extreme cold by month. Thirty-seven of the 78 events (47%) took place in January, making this the peak month for extreme cold events. There were three events that spanned two months; however, for illustration purposes only the month the event started in is graphed. What locations are affected by extreme cold? Extreme cold affects the entire County. Extreme cold, like excessive heat and severe winter storms, generally extends across the entire County and affects multiple locations. Do any of the participating jurisdictions have designated warming centers? Yes. Eight of the 21 participating municipalities, townships, schools, fire protection districts, and park districts have designated warming centers. A “designated” warming center is identified as any facility that has been formally identified by the jurisdiction (through emergency planning, resolution, Memorandum of Agreement, etc.) as a location available for use by residents during severe winter storms and extreme cold events. Figure EC-3 identifies the location of each warming center by jurisdiction.

Boulder Point, 0 Boulder Hill Pass, Montgomery South Point, 810 Preston Ln., Oswego What is the probability of future extreme cold events occurring based on historical data? The region, including Kendall County, has experienced 78 verified occurrences of extreme cold between 1995 and 2022. With 78 occurrences over the past 28 years, Kendall County should expect to experience at least two extreme cold events in any given year. It is important to keep in mind that there are almost certainly gaps in the early extreme cold data. More events have almost certainly occurred than are documented in this section, which means that the probability is almost certainly higher than reported. There were 21 years over the last 28 years where multiple (two or more) extreme cold events occurred. This indicates that the probability that multiple extreme cold events may occur during any given year within the County is 75%. What is the probability of future extreme cold events occurring based on modeled future conditions? The warming trend observed in Illinois over the past century hasn’t just meant increasingly hotter summers; it has meant milder winters. Over the past 120 years, average temperatures in Illinois have increased by 1°F to 2°F according to the Illinois State Climatologist, with the most prominent changes occurring in overnight temperatures and in increased winter and spring temperatures. As a result, extreme cold events are likely to continue to become less common and less intense than they were in the past. The number of days less than 32°F in Illinois are forecasted to decrease in the coming decades. Reductions in extreme cold events could prevent some of the damages associated with them, both in terms of human health costs and economic costs. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 122 Figures EC-4, EC-5, and EC-6 provide tabular and graphical projections for Kendall County, showing estimations for number of days where high temperatures will not exceed 32°F in the early, mid, and late 21st century with both low and high estimates for each time period. Most likely, the true value will fall between these two estimates. By midcentury, the average number of days per year not exceeding 32°F in Kendall County is forecasted to decrease from around 40 today to between 25 and 22 according to the Climate Mapping for Resilience and Adaptation’s Assessment Tool. By contrast, projections from Great Lakes Integrated Sciences + Assessments indicate that there is likely to be a change of 2 to 5 days in the number of days per year where temperatures will fall below 20° F by midcentury in Kendall County. HAZARD VULNERABILITY The following describes the vulnerability to participating jurisdictions, identifies the impacts on public health and property (if known) and estimates the potential impacts on public health and safety as well as buildings, infrastructure, and critical facilities from extreme cold. Figure EC-4 Days with Maximum Temperature < 32°F Projection Table – Kendall County Figure EC-5 Number of Days with Maximum Temperature < 32°F Graph – Kendall County Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 123 Are the participating jurisdictions vulnerable to extreme cold? Yes. All of Kendall County, including the participating jurisdictions, is vulnerable to the dangers presented by extreme cold. Since 2013, Kendall County has experienced 41 extreme cold events. The 2023 Illinois Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan prepared by IEMA-OHS classifies Kendall County’s hazard rating for cold wave as “medium”. IEMA-OHS’s overall hazard rating system has five levels: very low, low, medium, high, and very high. For extreme cold, FEMA’s National Risk Index (NRI) rates the County as a whole as “Very High”. One of the 24 census tracts is rated “Very High”, 20 census tracts are rated “Relatively High”, and three are rated “Relatively Moderate”. Table R-5 presents the overall NRI scores and ratings for each census tract as well as for the County as a whole. Figure EC-6 Average Number of Annual Days Below 32°F Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 124 Have any of the participating jurisdictions identified specific assets vulnerable to the impacts of extreme cold? Yes. Based on responses to an Assets Vulnerability Survey distributed to the participating jurisdictions, the following jurisdictions considered specific assets within their jurisdiction vulnerable to extreme cold. Kendall County: Individuals in the County are vulnerable to excessive heat and its impacts, especially the elderly, unhoused, and sensitive populations. Oswego: While individuals are vulnerable to extreme cold and its impacts, the Village provides warming centers for residents’ use. What impacts resulted from the recorded extreme cold events? Damage information was either unavailable or none was recorded, and no injuries or fatalities were reported as a result of any of the extreme cold events. This does not mean that injuries or fatalities didn’t occur; it simply means that extreme cold was not identified as the primary cause. In comparison, the State of Illinois averages 18 cold-related fatalities annually according to the Illinois State Water Survey’s Climate Atlas of Illinois. What other impacts can result from extreme cold events? Other impacts of extreme cold include early school dismissals and school closing, power outages and frozen and ruptured water pipes and water mains. Individuals who are outdoors during and immediately following extreme cold events can experience health and safety problems. Frostbite to hands, feet, ears and nose and hypothermia are common injuries. What is the level of risk/vulnerability to public health and safety from severe winter storms and extreme cold? For Kendall County the level of risk or vulnerability posed by extreme cold to public health and safety of the general population is considered to be low to medium. This assessment is based on the fact that while extreme cold events occur regularly, the number of injuries and fatalities reported is low and all but one of the participating municipalities have designated warming centers. The level of risk or vulnerability posed by extreme cold to the public health and safety of socially vulnerable populations is considered to be medium. Socially vulnerable populations such as individuals with dementia and access and functional needs populations may be more susceptible to cold-related exposures if they become disoriented outdoors during an event and therefore their risk is elevated. However, demographic information is not available for these segments of the population. Extreme Cold Fast Facts – Impacts/Risk Extreme Cold Impacts: Total Property Damage: n/a Injuries: n/a Fatalities: n/a Extreme Cold Risk/Vulnerability: Public Health & Safety – General Population: Low to Medium Public Health & Safety – Socially Vulnerable Populations: Medium Buildings/Infrastructure/Critical Facilities: Low Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 125 Are existing buildings, infrastructure, and critical facilities vulnerable to extreme cold? Yes. All existing buildings, infrastructure and critical facilities located in Kendall County and the participating jurisdictions are vulnerable to damage from extreme cold. Individual water pipes and distribution lines and mains are especially susceptible to freezing during extreme cold events. This freezing can lead to cracks or ruptures in the pipes in buildings as well as in buried service lines and mains. As a result, flooding can occur as well as disruptions in service. Since most buried service lines and water mains are located under local streets and roads, fixing a break requires portions of the street or road to be blocked off, excavated, and eventually repaired. These activities can be costly and must be carried out under less than ideal working conditions. Based on the frequency with which extreme cold events have occurred in Kendall County; the damages described; the amount of property damage previously reported; and the potential for disruptions to power distribution and communication; the risk or vulnerability to buildings, infrastructure and critical facilities from extreme cold events is low. Are future buildings, infrastructure, and critical facilities vulnerable to extreme cold? Yes and No. While the County, Montgomery, Newark, Oswego, Plano, and Yorkville have building codes in place that will likely help lessen the vulnerability of new buildings and critical facilities to damage from extreme cold, Lisbon and Plattville do not. However, infrastructure such as residential water pipes will continue to be vulnerable as long as they are located in areas such as outside walls, attics and crawl spaces that do not contain proper insulation. What are the potential dollar losses to vulnerable structures from extreme cold? Unlike other natural hazards, such as tornadoes, there are no standard loss estimation models or methodologies for extreme cold events. With none of the recorded events listing property damage figures, there is no way to accurately estimate future potential dollar losses from extreme cold. However, according to the County officials the total equalized assessed values of all residential, commercial, and industrial buildings in the planning area is $4,444,350,435. Since all of the structures in the planning area are vulnerable to damage, this total represents the countywide property exposure to extreme cold. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 126 3.5 EXCESSIVE HEAT HAZARD IDENTIFICATION What is the definition of excessive heat? Excessive heat is generally characterized by a prolonged period of summertime weather that is substantially hotter and more humid than the average for a location at that time of year. Excessive heat criteria typically shift by location and time of year. As a result, reliable fixed absolute criteria are not generally specified (i.e., a summer day with a maximum temperature of at least 90°F). Excessive heat events are usually a result of both high temperatures and high relative humidity. (Relative humidity refers to the amount of moisture in the air.) The higher the relative humidity or the more moisture in the air, the less likely that evaporation will take place. This becomes significant when high relative humidity is coupled with soaring temperatures. On hot days the human body relies on the evaporation of perspiration or sweat to cool and regulate the body’s internal temperature. Sweating does nothing to cool the body unless the water is removed by evaporation. When the relative humidity is high, then the evaporation process is hindered, robbing the body of its ability to cool itself. Excessive heat is a leading cause of weather-related fatalities in the U.S. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, a total of 7,415 people died from heat-related illnesses between 1999 and 2010, an average of 618 fatalities a year. What is the Heat Index? In an effort to raise the public’s awareness of the hazards of excessive heat, the National Weather Service (NWS) devised the “Heat Index”. The Heat Index, sometimes referred to as the “apparent temperature”, is a measure of how hot it feels when relative humidity is added to the actual air temperature. Figure EH-1 shows the Heat Index as it corresponds to various air temperatures and relative humidity. As an example, if the air temperature is 96°F and the relative humidity is 65%, then the Heat Index would be 121°F. It should be noted that the Heat Index values were devised for shady, light wind conditions. Exposure to full sunshine can increase Heat Index values by up to 15°F. Also, strong winds, particularly with very hot, very dry air, can be extremely hazardous. When the Heat Index reaches 105°F or greater, there is an increased likelihood that continued exposure and/or physical activity will lead to individuals developing severe heat disorders. What are heat disorders? Heat disorders are a group of illnesses caused by prolonged exposure to hot temperatures and are characterized by the body’s inability to shed excess heat. These disorders develop when the heat gain exceeds the level the body can remove or if the body cannot compensate for fluids and salt lost through perspiration. In either case the body loses its ability to regulate its internal temperature. All heat disorders share one common feature: the individual has been overexposed to heat, or over exercised for their age and physical condition on a hot day. The following describes the symptoms associated with the different heat disorders. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 127 Source: NOAA, National Weather Service.  Heat Rash. Heat rash is a skin irritation caused by excessive sweating during hot, humid weather and is characterized by red clusters of small blisters on the skin. It usually occurs on the neck, chest, groin or in elbow creases.  Sunburn. Sunburn is characterized by redness and pain of skin exposed too long to the sun without proper protection. In severe cases it can cause swelling, blisters, fever and headaches and can significantly retard the skin’s ability to shed excess heat.  Heat Cramps. Heat cramps are characterized by heavy sweating and muscle pains or spasms, usually in the abdomen, arms or legs that during intense exercise. The loss of fluid through perspiration leaves the body dehydrated resulting in muscle cramps. This is usually the first sign that the body is experiencing trouble dealing with heat.  Heat Exhaustion. Heat exhaustion is characterized by heavy sweating, muscle cramps, tiredness, weakness, dizziness, headache, nausea or vomiting and faintness. Breathing may become rapid and shallow and the pulse thready (weak). The skin may appear cool, moist and pale. If not treated, heat exhaustion may progress to heat stroke.  Heat Stroke (Sunstroke). Heat stroke is a life-threatening condition characterized by a high body temperature (106°F or higher). The skin appears to be red, hot and dry with very little perspiration present. Other symptoms include a rapid and strong pulse, throbbing headache, dizziness, nausea and confusion. There is a possibility that the individual will become unconsciousness. If the body is not cooled quickly, then brain damage and death may result. Figure EH-1 Heat Index Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 128 Studies indicate that, all things being equal, the severity of heat disorders tend to increase with age. Heat cramps in a 17-year-old may be heat exhaustion in someone 40 and heat stroke in a person over 60. Elderly persons, small children, chronic invalids, those on certain medications and persons with weight or alcohol problems are particularly susceptible to heat reactions. Figure EH-2 below indicates the heat index at which individuals, particularly those in higher risk groups, might experience heat-related disorders. Generally, when the heat index is expected to exceed 105°F, the NWS will initiate excessive heat alert procedures. Figure EH-2 Relationship between Heat Index and Heat Disorders Heat Index (°F) Heat Disorders 80°F – 90°F Fatigue is possible with prolonged exposure and/or physical activity 90°F – 105°F Heat cramps, heat exhaustion and heat stroke possible with prolonged exposure and/or physical activity 105°F – 130°F Heat cramps, heat exhaustion and heat stroke likely; heat stroke possible with prolonged exposure and/or physical activity 130°F or Higher Heat stroke highly likely with continued exposure Source: NOAA, Heat Wave: A Major Summer Killer. What is an excessive heat alert? An excessive heat alert is an advisory or warning issued by the NWS when the Heat Index is expected to have a significant impact on public safety. The expected severity of the heat determines the type of alert issued. There are four types of alerts that can be issued for an extreme heat event. The following provides a brief description of each type of alert based on the excessive heat advisory/warning criteria established by NWS Weather Forecast Office in Chicago, Illinois. The Chicago Office is responsible for issuing alerts for Kendall County.  Watch. An excessive heat watch is issued when conditions are favorable for the maximum heat index to potentially reach 110°F or greater and the minimum heat index is to remain at or above 75°F for at least 48 hours.  Advisory. An excessive heat advisory is issued when the maximum heat index is exceeding or expected to exceed 105°F for an event that is occurring or imminent.  Warning. An excessive heat warning is issued where the maximum heat in dex is expected to reach 110°F or greater and the minimum heat index is expected to remain at or above 75°F for at least 48 hours for an event that is occurring or imminent. HAZARD PROFILE The following identifies past occurrences of excessive heat, details the severity or extent of each event (if known); identifies the locations potentially affected and estimates the likelihood of future occurrences. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 129 When have excessive heat events occurred previously? What is the extent of these events? Table 9, located in Appendix J, summarizes the previous occurrences as well as the extent or magnitude of regional excessive heat events extrapolated for Kendall County. NOAA’s Storm Events Database, Iowa State University’s National Weather Service Watch, Warning, and Advisories database, Midwestern Regional Climate Center’s cli-MATE database, and NWS’s COOP Data records were used to extrapolate 77 occurrences of excessive heat in Kendall County between 1995 and 2022. According to the Midwestern Regional Climate Center, temperature records were either not kept or are not available from any of the NWS COOP Observation Stations or networks in Kendall County, with the exception of the Observation Station at Oswego and Yorkville which kept temperature records intermittently between 1894 and 1914. As a result, temperature records from the Aurora COOP Observation Station in Kane County and the Morris 1NW COOP Observation Station in Grundy County were used to extrapolate excessive heat events in Kendall County. Based on available records, the hottest recorded temperature at both Observation Stations was 111°F and occurred on July 14, 1936. Figure EH-3 charts the reported occurrences of excessive heat by month for the region. Thirty- three of the 77 events (43%) began in July making this the peak month for excessive heat events in Kendall County. There were four events that spanned two months; however, for illustration purposes only the month the event started is graphed.

Excessive heat affects the entire County. Excessive heat events, like drought and severe winter storms, generally extend across an entire region and affecting multiple counties. Do any of the participating jurisdictions have designated cooling centers? Yes. Seven of the 21 participating municipalities, townships, schools, fire protection districts, and park districts have designated cooling centers. A “designated” cooling center is identified as any facility that has been formally identified by the jurisdiction (through emergency planning, resolution, Memorandum of Agreement, etc.) as a location available for use by residents of the jurisdiction during excessive heat events. Figure EH-4 identifies the location of each cooling center by jurisdiction. At this time Lisbon, Plattville, Kendall Township, Oswego Township, Lisbon CCSD #90, Newark CHSD #18, Oswego CUSD #308, Parkview Christian Academy, Plano CUSD #88, St. Mary Catholic School, Bristol- Kendall FPD, Lisbon-Seward FPD, Sandwich Community FPD, and Oswegoland Park District do not have any cooling centers designated. In addition, there are no State of Illinois-designated cooling centers in Kendall County.

The region, including Kendall County, 77 verified occurrences of excessive heat between 1995 and 2022. With 77 occurrences over the past 28 years, Kendall County should expect to experience at least two excessive heat events a year. It is important to keep in mind that there are almost certainly gaps in the excessive heat data. More events have almost certainly occurred than are documented in this section, which means that the probability is almost certainly higher than reported. There were 22 years over the last 28 years where multiple (three or more) excessive heat events occurred. This indicates that the probability that multiple excessive heat events may occur during any given year within the County is 79%. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 131 What is the probability of future excessive heat events occurring based on modeled future conditions? Temperature in Illinois has trended upwards over the last century, with average temperatures in Illinois having increased by 1°F to 2°F in the past 120 years according to the Illinois State Climatologist. This trend is likely to continue, with conservative long-term estimates placing average temperatures by the end of the 21st century between 4° and 9° F warmer than they are today. With increasing temperatures comes the increasing risk of extreme heat events, which are projected to continue to become more frequent and more severe than they have been historically. This is due to increases in temperatures observed during summer months, where just a few degrees difference can turn a hot day into a dangerously hot day. The number of days greater than 95° F in Illinois are forecasted to increase in the coming decades, with conservative projections predicting that even northern Illinois will see a minimum of 10 extreme heat days per year by the end of the 21st century, compared with one or two extreme heat days per year today. Even just a few additional extreme heat days a year could prove very damaging, both in terms of human health and economic costs. Figures EH-5, EH-6, and EH-7 provide tabular and graphical projections for Kendall County, showing estimations for annual high temperature extremes in the early, mid, and late 21st century with both low and high estimates for each time period. Most likely, the true value will fall between these two estimates. By midcentury, the average number of days per year exceeding 90° F in Kendall County is forecasted to increase from around 14 today to between 47 and 57, and the single hottest temperature recorded in a year is predicted to increase by 6°F to 7° F according to the Climate Mapping for Resilience and Adaptation’s Assessment Tool. The Climate Explorer indicates that in Kendall County, extreme temperatures on the hottest days of the year are projected to increase by 7°F. This is based on the findings of the 2018 National Climate Assessment and compares projections for the middle third of the century (2035-2064) with average conditions observed from 1961-1990. Taken together, an increase in the number of days per year with temperatures greater than 90° F and an increase in extreme temperatures on the hottest days for Kendall County indicates increased risk for extreme heat events. HAZARD VULNERABILITY The following describes the vulnerability to participating jurisdictions, identifies the impacts on public health and property (if known) and estimates the potential impacts on public health and safety as well as buildings, infrastructure, and critical facilities from excessive heat. Are the participating jurisdictions vulnerable to excessive heat? Yes. All of Kendall County, including the participating jurisdictions, is vulnerable to the dangers presented by excessive heat. Since 2013, the region, including Kendall County, has experienced 30 excessive heat events. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 132 0 The 2023 Illinois Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan prepared by IEMA-OHS classifies Kendall County’s hazard rating for heat wave as “medium.” IEMA-OHS’s overall hazard rating system has five levels: very low, low, medium, high, and very high. For excessive heat, the FEMA’s National Risk Index (NRI) rates the County as a whole as “Relatively Moderate”. Eleven of the 24 census tracts are rated “Relatively High” and the Figure EH-6 Number of Days with Maximum Temperature > 90°F Graph – Kendall County Figure EH-7 Number of Days with Maximum Temperature > 100°F Graph – Kendall County Figure EH-5 Annual High Temperature Extreme Projections Table – Kendall County Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 133 remaining 13 census tracts are rated “Relatively Moderate”. Table R-5 presents the overall NRI scores and ratings for each census tract as well as for the County as a whole. Have any of the participating jurisdictions identified specific assets vulnerable to the impacts of excessive heat? Yes. Based on responses to an Assets Vulnerability Survey distributed to the participating jurisdictions, the following jurisdictions considered specific assets within their jurisdiction vulnerable to excessive heat. Kendall County:  Individuals in the County are vulnerable to excessive heat and its impacts, especially the elderly, unhoused, and sensitive populations. Oswego:  While individuals are vulnerable to excessive heat and its impacts, the Village provides cooling centers for residents’ use. Plano:  Individuals in the City are vulnerable to excessive heat and its impacts, especially the elderly. What impacts resulted from the recorded excessive heat events? Damage information was either unavailable or none was recorded for any of the excessive heat events. No injuries or fatalities were reported as a result of any of the excessive heat events. This does not mean that injuries or fatalities didn’t occur; it simply means that excessive heat was not identified as the primary cause. This is especially true for fatalities. Usually, heat is not listed as the primary cause of death, but rather an underlying cause. The heat indices were sufficiently high for all the excessive heat events to produce heat cramps or heat exhaustion with the possibility of heat stroke in cases of prolonged exposure or physical activity. In comparison, Illinois averages 74 heat- related fatalities annually according to the Illinois State Water Survey’s Climate Atlas of Illinois. What other impacts can result from excessive heat events? Other impacts of excessive heat include road buckling, power outages, stress on livestock, early school dismissals and school closings. In addition, excessive heat events can also lead to an increase in water usage and may result in municipalities imposing water use restrictions. In Kendall County, excessive heat should not impact municipal water supplies since none obtain their water from surface water bodies. Excessive heat may impact residents in unincorporated Kendall County however who rely on shallow private wells for their drinking water. Excessive Heat Fast Facts – Impacts/Risk Excessive Heat Impacts: Total Property Damage: n/a Total Crop Damage: n/a Fatalities : n/a Injuries: n/a Excessive Heat Risk/Vulnerability: Public Health & Safety – General Population: Low Public Health & Safety – Socially Vulnerable Populations: Medium Buildings/Infrastructure/Critical Facilities: Low Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 134 What is the level of vulnerability to public health and safety from excessive heat? Even if injuries and fatalities due to excessive heat were under reported in Kendall County, the level of risk or vulnerability posed by excessive heat to the public health and safety of the general population is considered to be low. This assessment is based on the frequency with which excessive heat occurs within the County; the impacts associated with these events; the types of living conditions (such as older, poorly-ventilated high rise buildings and low-income neighborhoods) that tend to contribute to heat-related injuries and fatalities; as well as the fact that injuries and fatalities due to excessive heat may be under reported. For the purposes of this analysis, general population includes healthy, able-bodied individuals who should have the ability to physiologically acclimatize to hot conditions over a period of days to weeks. Should that prove difficult, cooling centers are available in each participating municipality, with the exception of Morton, to provide relief during peak heat hours. The level of risk or vulnerability posed by excessive heat to the public health and safety of socially vulnerable populations is considered to be medium. Socially vulnerable populations such as older adults (those 75 years of age and older) and small children (those younger than 5 years of age) are more susceptible to heat-related reactions and therefore their risk is elevated. Figure EH-8 identifies the percent of socially vulnerable populations by participating municipality, township, and the County based on the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2017-2021 American Community Survey data. In addition, individuals with chronic conditions, those on certain medications, and persons with weight or alcohol problems are also considered sensitive populations. However, demographic information is not available for these segments of the population.

Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 135 Are existing buildings, infrastructure, and critical facilities vulnerable to excessive heat? No. In general, existing buildings, infrastructure and critical facilities located in the County and the participating jurisdictions are not vulnerable to excessive heat. The primary concern is for the health and safety of those living in the County (including all of the municipalities). While buildings do not typically sustain damage from excessive heat, in rare cases infrastructure and critical facilities may be directly or indirectly damaged. While uncommon, excessive heat has been known to contribute to damage caused to roadways within Kendall County. The combination of excessive heat and vehicle loads has caused pavement cracking and buckling. Excessive heat has also been known to indirectly contribute to disruptions in the electrical grid. When the temperatures rise, the demand for energy also rises in order to operate air conditioners, fans, and other devices. This increase in demand places stress on the electrical grid components, increasing the likelihood of power outages. While not common in Kendall County, there is the potential for this to occur. The potential may increase over the next two decades if new power sources are not built to replace the state’s aging nuclear power facilities that are expected to be decommissioned. In general, the risk or vulnerability to buildings, infrastructure and critical facilities from excessive heat is considered low, even taking into consideration the potential for damage to roadways and disruptions to the electrical grid. Are future buildings, infrastructure, and critical facilities vulnerable to excessive heat? No. Future buildings, infrastructure and critical facilities within the County and participating jurisdictions are no more vulnerable to excessive heat events than the existing building, infrastructure, and critical facilities. As discussed above, buildings do not typically sustain damage from excessive heat. Infrastructure and critical facilities may, in rare cases, be damaged by excessive heat, but very little can be done to prevent this. What are the potential dollar losses to vulnerable structures from excessive heat? Unlike other natural hazards there are no standard loss estimation models or methodologies for excessive heat. With none of the recorded events listing property damage figures, there is no way to accurately estimate future potential dollar losses from excessive heat. Since excessive heat typically does not cause structure damage, it is unlikely that future dollar losses will be extreme. The primary concern associated with excessive heat is the health and safety of those living in the County and municipalities, especially socially vulnerable populations such as the elderly, infants, young children, and those with medical conditions. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 136 3.6 TORNADOES HAZARD IDENTIFICATION What is the definition of a tornado? A tornado is a narrow violently rotating column of air, often visible as a funnel-shaped cloud that extends from the base of a thunderstorm cloud formation to the ground. The most violent tornadoes can have wind speeds of more than 300 miles per hour and can create damage paths in excess of one mile wide and 50 miles long. Not all tornadoes have a visible funnel cloud. Some may appear nearly transparent until dust and debris are picked up or a cloud forms within the funnel. Generally, tornadoes move from southwest to northeast, but they have been known to travel in any direction, even backtracking. A typical tornado travels at around 10 to 20 mile per hour, but this may vary from almost stationary to 60 miles per hour. Tornadoes can occur at any time of the year and happen at any time of the day or night, although most occur between 4 p.m. and 9 p.m. About 1,200 tornadoes hit the U.S. yearly, with an average 52 tornadoes occurring annually in Illinois. The destruction caused by a tornado may range from light to catastrophic depending on the intensity, size and duration of the storm. Tornadoes cause crop and property damage, power outages, environmental degradation, injuries and fatalities. Tornadoes are known to blow roofs off buildings, flip vehicles and demolish homes. Typically, tornadoes cause the greatest damage to structures of light construction, such as residential homes. On average, tornadoes cause 60 to 65 facilities and 1,500 injuries in the U.S. annually. How are tornadoes rated? Originally tornadoes were rated using the Fujita Scale (F-Scale), which related the degree of damage caused by a tornado to the intensity of the tornado’s wind speed. The Scale identified six categories of damage, F0 through F5. Figure T-1 gives a brief description of each category. Use of the original Fujita Scale was discontinued on February 1, 2007 in favor of the Enhanced Fujita Scale. The original scale had several flaws including basing a tornado’s intensity and damages on wind speeds that were never scientifically tested and proven. It also did not take into consideration that a multitude of factors (i.e., structure construction, wind direction and duration, flying debris, etc.) affect the damage caused by a tornado. In addition, the process of rating the damage itself was based on the judgment of the damage assessor. In many cases, meteorologists and engineers highly experienced in damage survey techniques often came up with different F-scale ratings for the same damage. The Enhanced Fujita Scale (EF-Scale) was created to remedy the flaws in the original scale. It continues to use the F0 through F5 categories, but it incorporates 28 different damage indicators (mainly various building types, towers/poles and trees) as calibrated by engineers and meteorologists. For each damage indicator there are eight degrees of damage ranging from barely visible damage to complete destruction of the damage indicator. The wind speeds assigned to each category are estimates, not measurements, based on the damage assessment. Figure T-1 identifies the Enhanced Fujita Scale. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 137 Figure T-1 Fujita & Enhanced Fujita Tornado Measurement Scales F-Scale EF-Scale Description Category Wind Speed (mph) Category Wind Speed (mph) F0 40 – 72 EF0 65 – 85 Light damage – some damage to chimneys; branches broken off trees; shallow-rooted trees pushed over; damage to sign boards F1 73 – 112 EF1 86 – 110 Moderate damage – peels surface off roofs; mobile homes pushed off foundations or overturned; moving autos blown off roads F2 113 – 157 EF2 111 – 135 Considerable damage – roofs torn off frame houses; mobile homes demolished; boxcars overturned; large trees snapped or uprooted; light-object missiles generated; cars lifted off ground F3 158 – 207 EF3 136 – 165 Severe damage – roofs and some walls torn off well- constructed houses; trains overturned; most trees in forest uprooted; heavy cars lifted off ground and thrown F4 208 – 260 EF4 166 – 200 Devastating damage – well-constructed houses leveled; structures with weak foundations blown away some distance; cars thrown, and large missiles generated F5 261 – 318 EF5 Over 200 Incredible damage – strong frame houses lifted off foundations and swept away; automobile-sized missiles fly through the air in excess of 100 yards; trees debarked; incredible phenomena will occur Source: NOAA, Storm Prediction Center. The idea behind the EF-Scale is that a tornado scale needs to take into account the typical strengths and weaknesses of different types of construction, instead of applying a “one size fits all” approach. This is due to the fact that the same wind speed can cause different degrees of damage to different kinds of structures. In a real-life application, the degree of damage to each of the 28 indicators can be mapped together to create a comprehensive damage analysis. As with the original scale, the EF-Scale rates the tornado as a whole based on the most intense damage within the tornado’s path. While the EF-Scale is currently in use, the historical data presented in this report is based on the original F-Scale. None of the tornadoes rated before February 1, 2007 will be re-evaluated using the EF-Scale. Are alerts issued for tornadoes? Yes. The National Weather Service Weather Forecast Office in Chicago, Illinois is responsible for issuing tornado watches and warnings for Kankakee County depending on the weather conditions. The following provides a brief description of each type of alert.  Watch. A tornado watch is issued when atmospheric conditions are favorable for the development of severe thunderstorms potentially capable of producing tornadoes. Watches are typically large, covering numerous counties or even states. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 138  Warning. A tornado warning is issued when a tornado has been sighted or indicated by weather radar. Warnings indicate imminent danger to life and property for those who are in the path of the tornado. Individuals should see shelter immediately. HAZARD PROFILE The following identifies past occurrences of tornadoes; details the severity or extent of each event (if known); identifies the locations potentially affected; and estimates the likelihood of future occurrences. When have tornadoes occurred previously? What is the extent of these previous tornadoes? Table 10, located in Appendix J, summarizes the previous occurrences as well as the extent or magnitude of tornado events recorded in Kendall County. NOAA’s Storm Events Database, Storm Data Publication and Storm Prediction Center have documented 22 occurrences of tornadoes in Kendall County between 1950 and 2022. Included in the 22 tornado events is one event from August 1990 that contributed to a major federal disaster declaration in Kendall County. In comparison, there have been 2,745 tornadoes statewide between 1950 and 2021 according to NOAA’s Storm Prediction Center. Figure T-2 charts the reported occurrences of tornadoes by magnitude. Of the 22 reported occurrences there were: 1 – F5, 3 – F3s, 2 – F2s, 2 – F1s, 6 – F0s, 2 – FUs, 2 – EF1s, 3 – EF0s, and 1 – EFU. Figure T-3 charts the reported tornadoes by month. Of the 22 events, 11 (50%) took place in May, and June making this the peak period for tornadoes in Kendall County. Of those 11 events, six (55%) occurred during May, making this the peak month for tornadoes. In comparison, 1,720 of the 2,745 tornadoes (63%) recorded in Illinois from 1950 through 2021 took place in April, May, and June. Approximately 82% of all tornadoes in the County occurred during the p.m. hours, with 11 of the tornado events (50%) taking place between 2 p.m. and 8 p.m. In comparison, more than half of all Illinois tornadoes occur between 2 p.m. and 8 p.m. The tornadoes that have impacted Kendall County have varied from 0.1 miles (176 yards) to 18.7 miles in length and from 10 yards to 600 yards in width. The average length of a tornado in Kendall County is 3.5 miles and the average width is 123 yards (0.07 miles). Figure T-4 shows the pathway of each reported tornado. The numbers next to each tornado correspond with the tornado description in Table 10 located in Appendix J. Unlike other natural Tornado Fast Facts – Occurrences Number of Tornadoes Reported (1950 – 2022): 22 Highest F-Scale Rating Recorded: F5 (August 28, 1990) Most Likely Month for Tornadoes to Occur: May Average Length of a Tornado: 3.5 miles Average Width of a Tornado: 123 yards Average Damage Pathway of a Tornado: 0.26 sq. mi.

Typically, the area impacted by a tornado is less than four square miles. In Kendall County, the average damage pathway or area impacted by a tornado is 0.26 square miles. The longest tornado recorded in Kendall County occurred on August 15, 1958. This F2 tornado, measuring 74.5 miles in length and 100 yards in width, touched down in Lee County west of Eldena and traveled southeast through DeKalb, La Salle and Kendall Counties before lifting off near Joliet in Will County. The tornado was on the ground in Kendall County for approximately 18.7 miles. The damage pathway of this tornado covered 4.23 square miles, with approximately 1.06 square miles occurring in Kendall County.

The damage pathway of this tornado covered 5.59 square miles, with approximately 1.77 square miles occurring in Kendall County. What locations are affected by tornadoes? Tornadoes have the potential to affect the entire County. Half of the municipalities within the County have had reported occurrences of tornadoes within their corporate limits. What is the probability of future tornadoes occurring based on historical data? Kendall County has had 22 verified occurrences of tornadoes between 1950 and 2022. With 22 tornadoes over the past 73 years, the probability or likelihood that a tornado will touchdown somewhere in the County in any given year is 30%. There were five years over the last 73 years where more than one tornado occurred. This indicates that the probability that more than one tornado may occur during any given year within the County is 7%. What is the probability of future tornadoes occurring based on modeled future conditions? Since tornadoes only occur when several conditions are met, predicting them is extremely difficult, even in the short-term future. Somewhat easier to predict are supercell formations, which are large and longer-lived storm systems that create conditions favorable to producing tornadoes, such as strong rotational winds and updrafts. These systems are fed by warm humid air, which means that a wetter and warmer climate could make them a more likely occurrence. Since future condition forecasts suggest a wetter and warmer Illinois as discussed in Section 3.1, it is likely that the conditions that create tornadoes will become more frequent as well, increasing their likelihood. Figure SS-7, located in Section 3.1, contains a series of maps that show how the number of supercell tracks is likely to change in the future. The analysis of this trend should be revisited in subsequent planning efforts as more data becomes available. HAZARD VULNERABILITY The following describes the vulnerability to participating jurisdictions, identifies the impacts on public health and property (if known) and estimates the potential impacts on public health and safety as well as buildings, infrastructure, and critical facilities from tornadoes. Are the participating jurisdictions vulnerable to tornadoes? Yes. All of Kendall County, including the participating jurisdictions, is vulnerable to the dangers presented by tornadoes. Since 2013, six tornadoes have been recorded in Kendall County. Three of the seven participating municipalities have had a tornado touch down or pass through their municipal boundaries. Figure T-5 lists the verified tornadoes that have touched down in or near or passed through each participating municipality and township. Six tornadoes have touched down in or passed through the Bristol-Kendall FPD while four tornadoes have touched down or passed through the Oswego FPD. Three tornadoes each have touched down in or passed through the Newark FPD and Sandwich Community FPD jurisdictions, while two tornadoes have touched down in or passed through the Lisbon-Seward FPD.

Interestingly enough, no tornadoes have touched down in or passed through Plano CUSD #88. In terms of the Oswegoland Park District, four tornadoes have touched down or passed through its boundaries. Unincorporated areas vulnerable to tornadoes include Little Rock which had a tornado touch down in its area in 2022. The 2023 Illinois Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan prepared by IEMA-OHS classifies Kendall County’s hazard rating for tornadoes as “medium.” IEMA-OHS’s overall hazard rating system has five levels: very low, low, medium, high, and very high. For tornadoes FEMA’s National Risk Index (NRI) rates the County as a whole as “Relatively High”. Ten of the 24 census tracts are rated “Very High” and the remaining 14 census tracts are rated “Relatively High” for tornadoes. Table R-5 presents the overall NRI scores and ratings for each census tract as well as for the County as a whole. Have any of the participating jurisdictions identified specific assets vulnerable to the impacts of tornadoes? Yes. Based on responses to an Assets Vulnerability Survey distributed to the participating jurisdictions, the following jurisdictions considered specific assets within their jurisdiction vulnerable to tornadoes. Bristol-Kendall Fire Protection District: KenCom handles all 911 calls for the entire County, including the District. If the Dispatch Center was damaged by a tornado, then the District’s ability to receive and respond to emergency calls will be severely diminished until the backup center can be staffed and activated. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 143 Kendall County:  The Kendall County Courthouse, Public Safety Center, Health Department, Coroner’s Office, and Animal Control are located in close proximity to each other and are vulnerable to a devastating tornado. If these facilities are impacted, it would severely limit the County’s ability to respond to the disaster.  Tornadoes have the potential to down power lines causing electrical outages. If the permanent emergency backup generators at the Public Safety Center, which includes KenCom, do not function appropriately, then the County’s ability to respond to a hazard event are severely diminished, including the ability to dispatch emergency responders until the backup center can be staffed and activated.  Tornadoes can down trees and utility lines causing debris to block roadways, impacting travel and delaying emergency response times to individuals who need assistance or evacuation. Kendall Township:  If the permanent emergency backup generator at the Township Building doesn’t function appropriately during a power outage caused by a tornado, then township staff would be unable to perform required duties in a timely fashion and the Building could not be used as an emergency shelter for District residents. Lisbon:  If the permanent emergency backup generator at the wastewater treatment plant doesn’t function appropriately, then a power outage caused by a tornado could impact service to residents. Lisbon CCSD #90:  The staff, students, and infrastructure associated with the school are all vulnerable to tornadoes. Montgomery:  The Village’s public works facility does not have an emergency backup generator which could limit service if a power outage is experienced as the result of a tornado. Newark:  If the permanent emergency backup generator at each well site don’t function appropriately, then a power outage caused by a tornado could impact service to residents. Parkview Christian Academy:  One the Academy’s buildings is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. This asset is vulnerable to tornadoes and could not be replaced if damaged or destroyed. Yorkville:  City Hall/Police Department are located in one building. If a tornado damaged the facility, then it would severely limit the City’s ability to respond to the disaster and serve residents.  The Communications Center and towers have the potential to be damaged by a tornado, which would limit the City’s ability to quickly respond to emergency calls.  Overhead electrical power lines to critical facilities/infrastructure within the City are vulnerable to damage from a tornado.  Critical facilities/infrastructure such as senior homes and schools are vulnerable to tornadoes because they have not been hardened to reduce damages. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 144 What impacts resulted from the recorded tornadoes? Data obtained from NOAA’s Storm Events Database, Storm Data Publications, Storm Prediction Center, and Committee member records indicates that between 1950 and 2022, seven of the 22 tornadoes caused $3,150,000 in property damages. A majority of the property damage total, $2.5 million, was sustained as a result of the F3 tornado on March 12, 1976 that destroyed or heavily damaged several homes near Oswego. Property damage information was either unavailable or none was recorded for the remaining 15 reported occurrences. No injuries or fatalities were reported as a result of any of the tornadoes. In comparison, Illinois averages roughly four tornado fatalities annually; however, this number varies widely from year to year. What other impacts can result from tornadoes? In addition to causing damage to buildings and properties, tornadoes can damage infrastructure and critical facilities such as roads, bridges, railroad tracks, drinking water treatment facilities, water towers, communication towers, antennae, power substations, transformers, and poles. Depending on the damage done to the infrastructure and critical facilities, indirect impacts on individuals could range from inconvenient (i.e., adverse travel) to life-altering (i.e., loss of utilities for extended periods of time). What is the level of risk/vulnerability to public health and safety from tornadoes? For Kendall County, the level of risk or vulnerability posed by tornadoes to public health and safety depends on not only frequency, but other factors as well including population distribution and density, the ratings and pathways of previously recorded tornadoes, the presence of high-risk living accommodations (such as high-rise buildings, mobile homes, etc.), and adequate access to health care for those injured following a tornado. All these must be examined when assessing vulnerability. In terms of adequate access to health care, nearby hospitals in Aurora, Elgin, and Geneva (Kane County), DeKalb and Sandwich (DeKalb County), Mendota and Ottawa (LaSalle County), Morris (Grundy County), and Bolingbrook, Joliet, and New Lenox (Will County) are equipped to provide care and have sufficient capacity for the influx of additional patients from one or more counties. Kendall County (including townships & fire protection districts) For Kendall County, including the fire protection districts and townships with the exception of Oswego Township, the level of risk or vulnerability posed by tornadoes to public health and safety is considered to be low to medium. This assessment is based on the fact that tornadoes do not occur frequently in the County and a large majority of the tornadoes that have impacted the County have touched down in rural areas away from concentrated populations. In addition, outside of Tornado Fast Facts – Impacts/Risk Tornado Impacts: Total Property Damage (7 events): $3,150.000 Total Crop Damage: n/a Injuries (4 events): n/a Fatalities: n/a Tornado Risk/Vulnerability: Public Health & Safety – Rural Areas: Low to Medium Public Health & Safety – Municipalities: High Buildings/Infrastructure/Critical Facilities – Rural Areas: Low to Medium Buildings/Infrastructure/Critical Facilities – Municipalities/Populated Unincorp. Areas: High Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 145 Plano, Yorkville, Montgomery Oswego, and Aurora, the County is not densely populated and there is not a large number of high-risk living accommodations present. Participating Municipalities (including schools, Oswego Township & Oswegoland Park District) In general, if a tornado were to touch down or pass through any of the participating municipalities (which include participating schools and park district facilities) or populated areas of Oswego Township, the risk to the public health and safety would be considered high. This is based on the fact that all of the participating jurisdictions have relatively dense and evenly distributed populations within their municipal boundaries. As a result, if a tornado were to touch down anywhere within the corporate limits of these municipalities it will have a greater likelihood of causing injuries or even fatalities. Do any participating jurisdictions have community safe rooms? Yes. Plano indicated that City Hall serves as a community safe room. None of the other participating jurisdictions have community safe rooms within their jurisdictions. As a result, if a tornado were to touch down or pass through any of the population centers in the County, then there would be a greater likelihood of injuries and fatalities due to the lack of structures specifically designed and constructed to provide life-safety protection. Each jurisdiction should consider whether the potential impacts to public health and safety from a tornado are considered great enough to warrant the consideration of community safe rooms as a mitigation action. Are existing buildings, infrastructure, and critical facilities vulnerable to tornadoes? Yes. All existing buildings, infrastructure, and critical facilities located within the County and participating jurisdictions are vulnerable to tornado damage. Buildings, infrastructure, and critical facilities located in the path of a tornado usually suffer extensive damage, if not complete destruction. While some buildings adjacent to a tornado’s path may remain standing with little or no damage, all are vulnerable to damage from flying debris. It is common for flying debris to cause damage to roofs, siding, and windows. In addition, mobile homes, homes on crawlspaces, and buildings with large spans (i.e., schools, barns, airport hangers, factories, etc.) are more likely to suffer damage. Most workplaces and many residential units do not provide sufficient protection from tornadoes. The damages sustained by infrastructure and critical facilities during a tornado are similar to those experienced during a severe storm. There is a high probability that power, communication, and transportation will be disrupted in and around the affected area. Assessing the Vulnerability of Existing Residential Structures One way to assess the vulnerability of existing residential structures is to estimate the number of housing units that may be potentially damaged if a tornado were to touch down or pass through any of the participating municipalities, townships, or the County. In order to accomplish this, a set of decisions/assumptions must be made regarding:  the size (area impacted) of the tornado;  the method used to estimate the area impacted by the tornado within each jurisdiction; and  the method used to estimate the number of potentially-damaged housing units. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 146 The following provides a brief discussion of each decision/assumption. Assumption #1: Size of Tornado. To calculate the number of existing residential structures vulnerable to a tornado, the size (area impacted) of the tornado must first be determined. There are several scenarios that can be used to calculate the size, including the worst case and the average. For this analysis, the area impacted by an average-sized tornado in Kendall County will be used since it has a higher probability of recurring. In Kendall County, the area impacted by an average-sized tornado is 0.26 square miles. This average is based on more than 70 years of data. Assumption #2: Method for Estimating the Area Impacted. Next, a method for determining the area within each jurisdiction impacted by the average- sized tornado needs to be chosen. There are several methods that can be used including creating an outline of the area impacted by the average-sized tornado and overlaying it on a map of each jurisdiction (most notably the municipalities) to see if any portion of the area falls outside of the corporate limits (which would require additional calculations) or just assume that the entire area of the average-sized tornado falls within the limits of each jurisdiction. For this discussion, it is assumed that the entire area of the average-sized tornado will fall within the limits of the participating jurisdictions. This method is quicker, easier, and more likely to produce consistent results when the Plan is updated again. There is, however, a greater likelihood that the number of potentially-damaged housing units will be overestimated for those municipalities that have irregular shaped boundaries or occupy less than one square mile. Assumption #3: Method for Estimating Potentially- Damaged Housing Units. With the size of the tornado selected and a method for estimating the area impacted chosen, a decision must be made on an approach for estimating the number of potentially-damaged housing units. There are several methods that can be used including overlaying the average-sized tornado on a map of each jurisdiction and counting the impacted housing units or calculating the average housing unit density to estimate the number of potentially-damaged housing units. For this analysis, the average housing unit density will be used since it provides a realistic perspective on potential residential damages without conducting extensive counts. Using the average housing unit density also allows future updates to the Plan to be easily recalculated and provides an exact comparison to previous estimates. Calculating Average Housing Unit Density The average housing unit density can be calculated by taking the number of housing units in a jurisdiction and dividing that by the land area within the jurisdiction. Figure T-6 provides a sample calculation. Assumption #1 Size of Tornado = 0.26 sq. miles Assumption #2 The entire area impacted by the average-sized tornado falls within the limits of each participating jurisdiction. Assumption #3 The average housing unit density for each jurisdiction will be used to determine the number of potentially-damaged housing units.

While the average housing unit density provides an adequate assessment of the number of housing units in areas where the housing density is fairly constant, such as municipalities, it does not provide a realistic assessment for those counties with large, sparsely populated rural areas such as Kendall County. In Kendall County, as well as many other northcentral Illinois counties, there are pronounced differences in housing unit densities. A majority of all housing units (79%) are located in three of the County’s nine townships (Oswego, Bristol, and Little Rock), while approximately 76% of all mobile homes are located in Little Rock Township. Figure I-7, located in Section 1.2, identifies the township boundaries. Tornado damage to buildings (especially mobile homes), infrastructure and critical facilities in the more densely populated townships is likely to be greater than in the rest of the County. While the County, Montgomery, and Oswego have specific ordinances that require anchoring systems for mobile home that would help limit the damage from lower rated tornadoes, the remaining five participating municipalities do not. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 148 This substantial difference in density skews the average county housing unit density in Kendall County and is readily apparent when compared to the average housing unit densities for each of the townships within the County. Figure T-8 provides a breakdown of housing unit densities by township and illustrates the differences between the various townships and the County as a whole.

For six of the nine townships, the average county housing unit density is greater (in most cases considerably greater) than the average township housing unit densities. However, the average county housing unit density is considerably less than the housing unit densities for Oswego and Bristol Townships. Estimating the Number of Potentially-Damaged Housing Units Before an estimate of the number of potentially-damaged housing units can be calculated for the participating municipalities, an additional factor needs to be taken into consideration: the presence of commercial/industrial developments and/or large tracts of undeveloped land. Occasionally villages and cities will annex large tracts of undeveloped land or have commercial/industrial parks/developments located within their corporate limits. In many cases these large tracts of land include very few residential structures. Consequently, including these tracts of land in the calculations to determine the number of potentially-damaged housing units skews the results, especially for very small municipalities. Therefore, to provide a more realistic assessment of the number of potentially-damaged housing units, these areas were subtracted from the land area figures obtained from the U.S. Census Bureau for the analysis for this update. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 149 In Kendall County, all of the participating municipalities have large commercial/industrial and/or undeveloped land areas within their municipal boundaries. These areas account for approximately one-third to nine-tenths of the land area in these municipalities. If these areas are subtracted from the U.S. Census Bureau land area figures, then the remaining land areas have fairly consistent housing unit densities and contain a majority of the housing units. Figure T-9 provides a breakdown of the refined land area figures for the municipalities. These refined land area figures will be used to update the average housing unit density calculations for these municipalities.

This can be done by multiplying the average housing unit density by the area impacted by the average-sized Kendall County tornado. Figure T-10 provides a sample calculation.

It is important to note that for the most densely populated townships, the estimated number of potentially-damaged housing units would only be reached if a tornado’s pathway included the major municipality within the township. If the tornado remained in the rural portion of the township, then the number of potentially-damaged housing units would be considerably lower.

There are several factors that must be examined when assessing the vulnerability of existing buildings, infrastructure, and critical facilities to tornadoes. These factors include tornado frequency, population distribution and density, the ratings and pathways of previously recorded tornadoes, and the presence of high-risk living accommodations (such as high-rise buildings, mobile homes, etc.). Unincorporated Kendall County (including townships & fire protection district) For Kendall County, including the fire protection districts and townships with the exception of Oswego Township, the level of risk or vulnerability posed by tornadoes to existing buildings, infrastructure and critical facilities is considered to be low to medium, depending on the population density of the township/fire protection district. This assessment is based on the frequency with which tornadoes have occurred in the County, as well as the amount of damage that has been sustained tempered by the low population density throughout most of unincorporated Kendall County and the relative absence of high risk living accommodations. While previously recorded tornadoes have followed largely rural pathways, they have caused significant damage on several occasions.

This assessment is based on the population and housing unit distribution within the municipalities where wide expanses of open spaces do not generally exist. As a result, if a tornado were to touch down within any of the municipalities it would have a greater likelihood of causing substantial property damage. Are future buildings, infrastructure, and critical facilities vulnerable to tornadoes? Yes and No. While Kendall County, Montgomery, Newark, Oswego, Plano, and Yorkville have building codes in place that will likely lessen the vulnerability of new buildings and critical facilities to damage from tornadoes, Lisbon and Plattville do not. However, even new buildings and critical facilities built to code are vulnerable to the risks posed by a higher rated tornado. Infrastructure such as new communication and power lines will continue to be vulnerable to tornadoes as long as they are located above ground. Flying debris can disrupt power and communication lines even if they are not directly in the path of the tornado. Steps to bury all new lines would eliminate the vulnerability, but this action would be cost prohibitive in most areas. What are the potential dollar losses to vulnerable structures from tornadoes? Unlike other hazards, such as flooding, there are no standard loss estimation models or methodologies for tornadoes. However, a rough estimate of potential dollar losses to the Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 152 potentially-damaged housing units determined previously can be calculated if several additional decisions/assumptions are made regarding:  the value of the potentially-damaged housing units; and  the percent damage sustained by the potentially-damaged housing units (i.e., damage scenario). These assumptions represent a probable scenario based on the reported historical occurrences of tornadoes in Kendall County. The purpose of providing a rough estimate is to help residents and government officials make informed decisions to better protect themselves and their communities. These estimates are meant to provide a general idea of the magnitude of the potential damage that could occur. The following provides a brief discussion of each decision/assumption. Assumption #4: Value of Potentially-Damaged Housing Units. In order to determine the potential dollar losses to the potentially-damaged housing units, the monetary value of the units must first be calculated. Typically, when damage estimates are prepared after a natural disaster such as a tornado, they are based on the market value of the structure. Since it would be impractical to determine the individual market value of each potentially-damaged housing unit, the average market value of residential structures in each jurisdiction will be used. To determine the average market value, the average assessed value must first be calculated. The average assessed value is calculated by taking the total assessed value of residential buildings within a jurisdiction and dividing that number by the total number of housing units within the jurisdiction. The average market value is then determined by taking the average assessed value and multiplying that number by three (the assessed value of a structure in Kendall County is approximately one-third of the market value). Figure T-13 provides a sample calculation. The total assessed value is based on 2022 tax assessment information obtained from the County officials. Figure T-13 Sample Calculation of Average Assessed Value & Average Market Value – Yorkville Average Assessed Value Total Assessed Value of Residential Buildings in the Jurisdiction÷ Total Housing Units in the Jurisdiction = Average Assessed Value (Rounded to the Nearest Dollar) Yorkville: $594,475,190 ÷ 7,125 housing units = $83,435 Average Market Value Average Assessed Value x 3 = Average Market Value Yorkville: $83,435 x 3 = $250,305 ($250,305) Assumption #4 The average market value for residential structures in each participating jurisdiction will be used to determine the value of potentially-damaged housing units.

Finally, a decision must be made regarding the percent damage sustained by the potentially-damaged housing units and their contents. For this scenario, the expected percent damage sustained by the structure and its contents is 100%; in other words, all of the potentially-damaged housing units would be completely destroyed. While it is highly unlikely that each and every housing unit would sustain the maximum percent damage, identifying and calculating different degrees of damage within the average area impacted is complex and provides an additional complication when updating the Plan. Calculating Potential Dollar Losses With all the decisions and assumptions made, the potential dollar losses can now be calculated. First, the potential dollar losses to the structure of a potentially-damaged housing unit must be determined. This is done by taking the average market value for a residential structure and multiplying it by the percent damage (100%) to get the average structural damage per unit. Next the average structural damage per unit is multiplied by the number of potentially-damaged housing units. Figure T-16 provides a sample calculation. Figure T-16 Structure: Potential Dollar Loss Sample Calculation – Yorkville Average Market Value of a Housing Unit with the Jurisdiction x Percent Damage = Average Structural Damage per Housing Unit Yorkville: $250,305 x 100% = $250,305 per housing unit Average Structural Damage per Housing Unit x Number of Potentially-Damaged Housing Units within the Jurisdiction = Structure Potential Dollar Losses Yorkville: $250,305 per housing unit x 138 housing units = $34,542,090 ($34,542,090) Next, the potential dollar losses to the content of a potentially-damaged housing unit must be determined. Based on FEMA guidance, the average value of a residential housing unit’s content is approximately 50% of its market value. Therefore, start by taking one-half the average market value for a residential structure and multiply by the percent damage (100%) to get the average content damage per unit. Next the average content damage per unit is multiplied by the number of potentially-damaged housing units. Figure T-17 provides a sample calculation. Finally, the total potential dollar losses may be calculated by adding together the potential dollar losses to the structure and content. Figures T-18 and T-19 give a breakdown of the total potential dollar losses by municipality and township. For comparison, an estimate of potential dollar losses was calculated for the entire County, the unincorporated portions of the County, the six most populated townships and the nine least populated townships.

Potential dollar losses caused by an average tornado in Kendall County would be expected to exceed at least $23 million in any of the participating municipalities. Potential dollar losses caused by an average tornado in Kendall County townships would be expected to range from $729,732 in Lisbon Township to at least $44.4 million in Oswego Township. As discussed previously, the estimate for the entire County is skewed because it does not take into consideration the differences in the housing density.

These calculations do not include damages sustained by businesses or other infrastructure and critical facilities within the participating jurisdictions. In terms of businesses, the impacts from an average-sized tornado event can be physical and/or monetary. Monetary impacts can include loss of sales revenue either through temporary closure or loss of critical services (i.e., power, drinking water, and sewer). Depending on the magnitude of the event, the damage sustained by infrastructure and critic al facilities can be extensive in nature and expensive to repair. As a result, the cumulative monetary impacts to businesses and infrastructure can exceed the cumulative monetary impacts to residences. While average dollar amounts cannot be supplied for these items at this time, they should be taken into account when discussing the impacts that an average-sized tornado could have on the participating jurisdictions Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 157 3.7 DROUGHTS HAZARD IDENTIFICATION What is the definition of a drought? While difficult to define, the National Drought Mitigation Center (NDMC) considers “drought” in its most general sense to be a deficiency of precipitation over an extended period of time, usually a season or more, resulting in a water shortage. Drought is a normal and recurrent feature of climate and can occur in all climate zones, though its characteristics and impacts vary significantly from one region to another. Unlike other natural hazards, drought does not have a clearly defined beginning or end. Droughts can be short, lasting just a few months, or they can persist for several years. There have been 28 drought events with losses exceeding $1 billion each (CPI-Adjusted) across the U.S. between 1980 and 2022. This is due in part to the sheer size of the areas affected. What types of drought occur? There are four main types of drought that occur: meteorological, agricultural, hydrological, and socioeconomic. They are differentiated based on the use and need for water. The following provides a brief description of each type.  Meteorological Drought. Meteorological drought is defined by the degree of dryness or rainfall deficit and the duration of the dry period. Due to climate differences, what might be considered a drought in one location of the country may not be in another location.  Agricultural Drought. An agricultural drought refers to a period when rainfall deficits, soil moisture deficits, reduced ground water or reservoir levels needed for irrigation impact crop development and yields.  Hydrological Drought. Hydrological drought refers to a period when precipitation deficits (including snowfall) impact surface (stream flow, reservoir and lake levels) and subsurface (aquifers) water supply levels.  Socioeconomic Drought. Socioeconomic drought refers to a period when the demand for an economic good (fruit, vegetables, grains, etc.) exceeds the supply as a result of weather- related shortfall in the water supply. How are droughts measured? There are numerous quantitative measures (indicators and indices) that have been developed to measure drought. How these indicators and indices measure drought depends on the discipline affected (i.e., agriculture, hydrology, meteorology, etc.) and the region being considered. There is no single index or indicator that can account for and be applied to all types of drought. Although none of the major indices are inherently superior to the rest, some are better suited than others for certain uses. The first comprehensive drought index developed in the U.S. was the Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI). The PDSI is calculated based on precipitation and temperature data, as well as the local Available Water Content of the soil. It is most effective Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 158 measuring drought impacts on agriculture. For many years it was the only operational drought index, and it is still very popular around the world. The Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI), developed in 1993, uses precipitation records for any location to develop a probability of precipitation for any time scale in order to reflect the impact of drought on the availability of different water resources (groundwater, reservoir storage, streamflow, snowpack, etc.) In 2009, the World Meteorological Organization recommended SPI as the main meteorological drought index that countries should use to monitor and follow drought conditions. The first operational ‘composite’ approach applied in the U.S. was the U.S. Drought Monitor (USDM). The USDM utilizes five key indicators, numerous supplementary indicators, and local reports from expert observers around the country to produce a drought intensity rating that is ideal for monitoring droughts that have many impacts, especially on agriculture and water resources during all seasons over all climate types. NOAA’s Storm Events Database records include USDM ratings and utilized them along with additional weather information to describe the severity of the drought conditions impacting affected counties. Therefore, this Plan will utilize USDM ratings to identify and describe previous drought events recorded within the County. The following provides a more detailed discussion of the USDM to aid the Plan’s developers and the general public in understanding how droughts are identified and categorized. U.S. Drought Monitor (USDM) Established in 1999, the USDM is a relatively new index that combines quantitative measures with input from experts in the field. It is designed to provide the general public, media, government officials and others with an easily understandable “big picture” overview of drought conditions across the U.S. It is unique in that it combines a variety of numeric-based drought indices and indicators with local expert input to create a single composite drought indicator, the results of which are illustrated via a weekly map that depicts the current drought conditions across the U.S. The USDM is jointly produced by the National Drought Mitigation Center at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). The USDM has a scale of five intensity categories, D0 through D4, that are utilized to identify areas of drought. Figure DR-1 provides a brief description of each category. Because the ranges of the various indicators often don’t coincide, the final drought category tends to be based on what a majority of the indictors show and on local observations. The authors also weight the indices according to how well they perform in various parts of the country and at different times of the year. It is the combination of the best available data, location observations and experts’ best judgment that make the U.S. Drought Monitor more versatile than other drought indices. In addition to identifying and categorizing general areas of drought, the USDM also identifies whether a drought’s impacts are short-term (typically less than 6 months – agriculture, grasslands) or long-term (typically more than 6 months – hydrology, ecology). Figure DR-2 shows an Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 159 example of the USDM weekly map. The USDM is designed to provide a consistent big-picture look at drought conditions in the U.S. It is not designed to infer specifics about local conditions.

Drought Monitor Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 160 HAZARD PROFILE The following identifies past occurrences of drought, details the severity or extent of each event (if known); identifies the locations potentially affected and estimates the likelihood of future occurrences. When have droughts occurred previously? What is the extent of these previous droughts? Table 11, located in Appendix J, summarizes the previous occurrences as well as the extent or magnitude of the drought events recorded in Kendall County. NOAA’s Storm Events Database, the Illinois State Water Survey, the Illinois Emergency Management Agency and Office of Homeland Security (IEMA- OHS), the NDMC at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, and the USDA have documented four official droughts for Kendall County between 1980 and 2022. The County was designated a USDA Primary Natural Disaster area for both the 2005 and 2012 droughts. The recorded drought events ranged in length from 9.5 to 16 months. Of the three drought events with a recorded starting month, two began in June and one began in May. Two of the drought events were assigned drought intensity category ratings by the USDM, with the 2005 drought reaching D3, extreme drought, and the 2012 drought reaching D2, severe drought. The State of Illinois Drought Preparedness and Response Plan identified seven additional outstanding statewide droughts since 1900 based on statewide summer values of the PDSI provided by NOAA’s National Center for Environmental Information. Those seven droughts occurred in 1902, 1915, 1931, 1934, 1936, 1954 and 1964; however, the extent to which Kendall County was impacted was unavailable. What locations are affected by drought? Drought events affect the entire County. Droughts, like excessive heat and severe winter storms, tend to impact large areas, extending across an entire region and affecting multiple counties. What is the probability of future drought events occurring based on historical data? Kendall County, including the participating jurisdictions, has experienced four droughts between 1980 and 2022. With four occurrences over 43 years, the probability or likelihood that the County may experience a drought in any given year is 9.3%. However, if earlier recorded droughts are factored in, then the probability that Kendall County may experience a drought in any given year decreases to 8.9%. What is the probability of future drought events occurring based on modeled future conditions? Despite precipitation trending upwards in Illinois in recent decades, drought conditions are likely to be more problematic in the future than they have been in the recent past, due to a combination of changes in precipitation patterns and an increase in summer temperatures. Drought Fast Facts – Occurrences Number of Drought Events Reported (1980 – 2022): 4 Number of Drought Events County was Designated a USDA Primary Natural Disaster Area: 2 (2005 & 2012) Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 161 In terms of predicting the likelihood of drought conditions, the amount of precipitation received is important, but even more critical is the timing of precipitation events. More frequent precipitation events maintain soil in a spongy, porous state that readily absorbs moisture; alternatively, more infrequent precipitation events tend to lead to dry, hardened earth, which is more effective at repelling water than absorbing it. When a precipitation event does occur over this drought-stricken soil, most of the water runs off and pools in bottomlands, leaving most land ‘high and dry’ while simultaneously flooding the lowest-lying areas. Another factor making this outcome more likely is the trend of increasing temperatures in Illinois, particularly during the summer when rain events are already more sporadic. Over the past 120 years, average temperatures in Illinois have increased by 1°F and 2°F according to the Illinois State Climatologist, a trend that is likely to continue. In the future, hotter summer temperatures are likely to lead to more evaporation that will exacerbate dry conditions, causing droughts to intensify more rapidly and become more intense. Figures SS-8 and SS-9, located in Section 3.1, and Figures EH-6, EH-7, and EH-8, located in Section 3.5, provide tabular and graphical projections for Kendall County showing average annual estimates for temperature and precipitation in the early, mid, and late century, with both low and high estimates for each time period. Most likely, the true values will fall between these two estimates. According to the Climate Mapping for Resilience and Adaptation’s Assessment Tool, the number of days exceeding 90°F in Kendall County is projected to go from 14 today to between 47 and 57days, while days exceeding 100°F are likely to increase from an average of zero days per year today to 4 to 8 days by midcentury. It also forecasts that the average annual precipitation in Kendall County is likely to increase by 2 inches per year, while the average number of days per year without precipitation is projected to increase by 3 to 4 days. The Climate Explorer indicates that in Kendall County, the average number of dry spells (a period of consecutive days without precipitation) is projected to increase by one. Extreme temperatures on the hottest days of the year are projected to increase by 7°F. This is based on the findings of the 2018 National Climate Assessment and compares projections for the middle third of the century (2035-2064) with average conditions observed from 1961-1990. In combination, a decrease in the frequency of precipitation and a significant increase in the number of days with extreme heat in Kendall County would create conditions that will be more likely to produce droughts than today. HAZARD VULNERABILITY The following describes the vulnerability to participating jurisdictions, identifies the impacts on public health and property (if known) and estimates the potential impacts on public health and safety as well as buildings, infrastructure, and critical facilities from drought. Are the participating jurisdictions vulnerable to drought? Yes. All of Kendall County, including the participating jurisdictions, is vulnerable to drought. Neither the amount nor the distribution of precipitation; soil types; topography; or water table conditions provides protection for any area within the County. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 162 The 2023 Illinois Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan prepared by IEMA-OHS classifies Kendall County’s hazard rating for drought as “low”. IEMA-OHS’s overall hazard rating system has five levels: very low, low, medium, high, and very high. For drought, FEMA’s National Risk Index (NRI) rates the County as a whole as “Very Low”. All 24 census tracts are rated “Relatively Low” or “Very Low” for drought. Table R-5 presents the overall NRI scores and ratings for each census tract as well as for the County as a whole. Have any of the participating jurisdictions identified specific assets vulnerable to the impacts of drought? No. Based on responses to an Assets Vulnerability Survey distributed to the participating jurisdictions, none of the participating jurisdictions consider specific assets within their jurisdictions vulnerable to drought. What impacts resulted from the recorded drought events? Data obtained from the USDA Risk Management Agency, indicates that between 1980 and 2022, two of the four droughts (2005 & 2012) caused an estimated $27,791,955 in damages to insured crops in Kendall County. Damage information was either unavailable or none was recorded for the remaining two reported occurrences. Of the five drought events, disaster relief payment information was only available for one of the events. In 1988, landowners and farmers in Illinois were paid in excess of $382 million in relief payments; however, a breakdown by county was unavailable. What other impacts can result from drought events? Based on statewide drought records available from the Illinois State Water Survey, the most common impacts that result from drought events in Illinois include reductions in crop yields and drinking water shortages. Crop Yield Reductions Kendall County has traditionally been known for its fertile farmland. Farmland accounts for approximately 67% of all the land in the County. According to the 2017 Census of Agriculture, there were 313 farms in Kendall County occupying 137,899 acres. In comparison, there were 364 farms occupying 63% (130,100 acres) of the total land area in the County in 2012. Of the land in farms in 2017, 97% or approximately 133,760 acres are in crop production. According to the 2017 Census of Agriculture, total crop and livestock sales accounted for $101.6 million in revenue. This is a 1% decrease in revenue from the 2012 Census of Agriculture when total crop and livestock sales accounted for $102.6 million. Kendall County ranks 66th in crop cash receipts and 78th in livestock cash receipts.

Dry weather conditions, particularly when accompanied by excessive heat, can result in diminished crop yields and place stress on livestock. A reduction in crop yields was seen as a result of the 1983, 1988, 2005, and 2012 droughts. Figure DR-3 illustrates the reduction yields seen for corn and soybeans during the recorded drought events. The USDA’s National Agricultural Statistics Service records show that yield reductions for corn were most severe for the 2005 drought when there was a 39.6% reduction in corn yields while yield reductions for soybeans were most severe for the 1988 drought when there was a 26.1% reduction in soybean yields.

Drinking Water Shortages Municipalities that rely on surface water sources for their drinking water supplies are more vulnerable to shortages as a result of drought. In Kendall County, none of the participating municipalities rely exclusively on surface water sources for their drinking water supply. According to the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency’s Source Water Assessment Program, five of the seven participating municipalities obtain their public water from deep sandstone, bedrock, or shallower sand and gravel aquifers. Residents of Lisbon and Plattville do not have community water supplies and instead rely on private wells of varying depth for their drinking water. While most of the participating municipalities are less vulnerable to drinking water shortages, a prolonged drought or a series of droughts in close succession do have the potential to impact water levels in aquifers used for individual drinking water wells in rural areas. This is because individual (private) water wells tend to be shallower than municipal (public) water wells. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 164 What is the level of vulnerability to public health and safety from drought? Unlike other natural hazards that affect the County, drought events do not typically cause injuries or fatalities. The primary concern centers on the financial impacts that result from loss of crop yields and livestock and potential drinking water shortages. Even taking into consideration the potential impacts that a water shortage may have on the general public, the risk or vulnerability to public health and safety from drought is low. Are existing buildings, infrastructure, and critical facilities vulnerable to drought? No. In general, existing buildings, infrastructure and critical facilities located in Kendall County and the participating jurisdictions are not vulnerable to drought. The primary concern centers on the financial impacts that result from loss of crop yields and livestock. While buildings do not typically sustain damage from drought events, in rare cases infrastructure and critical facilities may be directly or indirectly impacted. While uncommon, droughts can contribute to roadway damage. Severe soil shrinkage can compromise the foundation of a roadway and lead to cracking and buckling. Prolonged heat associated with drought can also increase the demand for energy to operate air conditioners, fans, and other devices. This increase in demand places stress on the electrical grid, which increases the likelihood of power outages. Additionally, droughts have impacted drinking water supplies. Reductions in aquifer water levels can cause water shortages that jeopardize the supply of water needed to provide drinking water and fight fires. While water use restrictions can be enacted in an effort to maintain a sufficient supply of water, they are only temporary and do not address long-term viability issues. Drinking water supplies vulnerable to drought, such as those that rely solely on surface water or shallow wells, need to consider mitigation measures that will provide long-term stability before a severe drought, or a series of droughts occur. Effective mitigation measures include drilling additional wells, preferably deep wells, securing agreements with alternative water sources and constructing water lines to provide a backup water supply. In general, the risk or vulnerability to buildings, infrastructure and critical facilities from drought is low, even taking into consideration the potential impact a drought may have on drinking water supplies and the stress that prolonged heat may place on the electrical grid. Are future buildings, infrastructure, and critical facilities vulnerable to drought? No. Future buildings, infrastructure and critical facilities within the County are no more vulnerable to drought than the existing building, infrastructure, and critical facilities. As discussed above, buildings do not typically sustain damage from drought. Infrastructure and critical facilities may, in rare cases, be damaged by drought, but very little can be done to prevent this damage. What are the potential dollar losses to vulnerable structures from drought? Unlike other natural hazards there are no standard loss estimation models or methodologies for drought. Since drought typically does not cause structure damage, it is unlikely that future dollar losses will be excessive. The primary concern associated with drought is the financial impacts that result from loss of crop yields and the potential impacts to drinking water supplies. Since a large Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 165 part of the County is involved in farming activities, it is likely that there will be future dollar losses to drought. In addition, reduced water levels and the water conservation measures that typically accompany a drought will most likely impact consumers as well as businesses and industries that are water-dependent (i.e., car washes, landscapers, etc.). Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 166 3.8 EARTHQUAKES HAZARD IDENTIFICATION What is the definition of an earthquake? An earthquake is a sudden shaking of the ground caused when rocks forming the earth’s crust slip or move past each other along a fault (a fracture in the rocks). Most earthquakes occur along the boundaries of the earth’s tectonic plates. These slow-moving plates are being pulled and dragged in different directions, sliding over, under and past each other. Occasionally, as the plates move past each other, their jagged edges will catch or stick causing a gradual buildup of pressure (energy). Eventually, the force exerted by the moving plates overcomes the resistance at the edges and the plates snap into a new position. This abrupt shift releases the pent-up energy, producing vibrations or seismic waves that travel outward from the earthquake’s point of origin. The location below the earth’s surface where the earthquake starts is known as the hypocenter or focus. The point on the earth’s surface directly above the focus is the epicenter. The destruction caused by an earthquake may range from light to catastrophic depending on a number of factors including the magnitude of the earthquake, the distance from the epicenter, the local geologic conditions as well as construction standards and time of day (i.e., rush hour). Earthquake damage may include power outages, general property damage, road, and bridge failure, collapsed buildings and utility damage (ruptured gas lines, broken water mains, etc.). Most of the damage done by an earthquake is caused by its secondary or indirect effects. These secondary effects result from the seismic waves released by the earthquake and include ground shaking, surface faulting, liquefaction, landslides and, in rare cases, tsunamis. According to the U.S. Geological Survey, more than 143 million Americans in the contiguous U.S. are exposed to potentially damaging ground shaking from earthquakes. More than 44 million of those Americans, located in 18 states, are exposed to very strong ground shaking from earthquakes. Illinois ranks 10th in terms of the number of individuals exposed to very strong ground shaking. The Federal Emergency Management Agency’s Hazus analysis indicates that the annualized earthquake losses to the national building stock is $6.1 billion per year. A majority of the average annual loss is concentrated in California ($3.7 million). The central U.S. (including Illinois) ranks third in annualized earthquake losses at $480 billion, behind the pacific northwest (Washington and Oregon) with annualized earthquake losses at $710 billion. What is a fault? A fault is a fracture or zone of fractures in the earth’s crust between two blocks of rock. They may range in length from a few millimeters to thousands of kilometers. Many faults form along tectonic plate boundaries. Faults are classified based on the angle of the fault with respect to the surface (known as the dip) and the direction of slip or movement along the fault. There are three main groups of faults: normal, reverse (thrust) and strike-slip (lateral). Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 167 Normal faults occur in response to pulling or tension along the two blocks of rock causing the overlying block to move down the dip of the fault plane. Most of the faults in Illinois are normal faults. Reverse or thrust faults occur in response to squeezing or compression of the two blocks of rock causing the overlying block to move up the dip of the fault plane. Strike-slip or lateral faults can occur in response to either pulling/tension or squeezing/compression causing the blocks to move horizontally past each other. Geologists have found that earthquakes tend to recur along faults, which reflect zones of weakness in the earth’s crust. Even if a fault zone has recently experienced an earthquake, there is no guarantee that all the stress has been relieved. Another earthquake could still occur. What are tectonic plates? Tectonic plates are large, irregularly-shaped, relatively rigid sections of the earth’s crust that float on the top, fluid layer of the earth’s mantle. There are about a dozen tectonic plates that make up the surface of the planet. These plates are approximately 50 to 60 miles thick and the largest are millions of square miles in size. How are earthquakes measured? The severity of an earthquake is measured in terms of its magnitude and intensity. A brief description of both terms and the scales used to measure each are provided below. Magnitude Magnitude refers to the amount of seismic energy released at the hypocenter of an earthquake. The magnitude of an earthquake is determined from measurements of ground vibrations recorded by seismographs. As a result, magnitude is represented as a single, instrumentally determined value. A loose network of seismographs has been installed all over the world to help record and verify earthquake events. There are several scales that measure the magnitude of an earthquake. The most well-known is the Richter Scale. This logarithmic scale provides a numeric representation of the magnitude of an earthquake through the use of whole numbers and decimal fractions. Because of the logarithmic basis of the scale, each whole number increase in magnitude represents a tenfold increase in ground vibrations measured. In addition, each whole number increase corresponds to the release of about 31 times more energy than the amount associated with the preceding whole number. It is important to note that the Richter Scale is used only to determine the magnitude of an earthquake, it does not assess the damage that results. Once an earthquake’s magnitude has been confirmed, it can be classified. Figure EQ-1 categorizes earthquakes by class based on their magnitude (i.e., Richter Scale value). Any earthquake with a magnitude less than 3.0 on the Richter Scale is classified as a micro earthquake while any earthquake with a magnitude of 8.0 or greater on the Richter Scale is considered a “great” earthquake. Earthquakes with a magnitude of 2.0 or less are not commonly felt by individuals. The largest earthquake to occur in the U.S. since 1900 took place off the coast of Alaska in Prince William Sound on March 28, 1964 and registered a 9.2 on the Richter Scale. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 168 Intensity Intensity refers to the effect an earthquake has on a particular location. The intensity of an earthquake is determined from observations made of the damage inflicted on individuals, structures, and the environment. As a result, intensity does not have a mathematical basis; instead, it is an arbitrary ranking of observed effects. In addition, intensity generally diminishes with distance. There may be multiple intensity recordings for a region depending on a location’s distance from the epicenter. Although numerous intensity scales have been developed over the years, the one currently used in the U.S. is the Modified Mercalli Intensity Scale. This scale, composed of 12 increasing levels of intensity that range from imperceptible shaking to catastrophic destruction, is designated by Roman numerals. The lower numbers of the intensity scale are based on human observations (i.e., felt only by a few people at rest, felt quite noticeably by persons indoors, etc.). The higher numbers of the scale are based on observed structural damage (i.e., broken windows, general damage to foundations etc.). Structural engineers usually contribute information when assigning intensity values of VIII or greater. Figure EQ-2 provides a description of the damages associated with each level of intensity as well as comparing Richter Scales values to Modified Mercalli Intensity Scale values. Generally, the Modified Mercalli Intensity value assigned to a specific site after an earthquake is a more meaningful measure of severity to the general public than magnitude because intensity refers to the effects actually experienced at that location. When and where do earthquakes occur? Earthquakes can strike any location at any time. However, history has shown that most earthquakes occur in the same general areas year after year, principally in three large zones around the globe. The world’s greatest earthquake belt, the circum-Pacific seismic belt (nicknamed the “Ring of Fire”), is found along the rim of the Pacific Ocean, where about 81 percent of the world’s largest earthquakes occur. The second prominent belt is the Alpide, which extends from Java to Sumatra and through the Himalayan Mountains, the Mediterranean Sea and out into the Atlantic Ocean. It accounts for about 17 percent of the world’s largest earthquakes, including those in Iran, Turkey, and Pakistan. The third belt follows the submerged mid-Atlantic Ridge, the longest mountain range in the world, nearly splitting the entire Atlantic Ocean north to south. While most earthquakes occur along plate boundaries some are known to occur within the interior of a plate. (As the plates continue to move and plate boundaries change over time, weakened boundary regions become part of the interiors of the plates.) Earthquakes can occur along zones Figure EQ-1 Earthquake Magnitude Classes Class Magnitude (Richter Scale) micro smaller than 3.0 minor 3.0 – 3.9 light 4.0 – 4.9 moderate 5.0 – 5.9 strong 6.0 – 6.9 major 7.0 – 7.9 great 8.0 or larger Source: Michigan Technological University, UPSeis Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 169 of weakness within a plate in response to stresses that originate at the edges of the plate or from deep within the earth’s crust.

Magnitude 2 and smaller earthquakes occur several hundred times a day worldwide. These earthquakes are known as micro earthquakes and are generally not felt by humans. Major earthquakes, greater than magnitude 7, generally occur at least once a month. Figure EQ-3 illustrates the approximate number of earthquakes that occur worldwide per year based on magnitude. This figure also identifies manmade and natural events that release approximately the same amount of energy for comparison.

Are there any faults located within the County? Yes, there is one known fault zone located in Kendall County. The Sandwich Fault Zone is approximately 85 miles long and runs northwest-southeast across northern Illinois, from central Ogle County to southern Will County and is the largest fault zone in northern Illinois. This fault varies in width from ½ mile to 2 miles wide. Figure EQ-4 illustrates the location of these geologic structures. When have earthquakes occurred previously? What is the extent of these previous quakes? According to the Illinois State Geological Survey (ISGS), the U.S. Geological Survey and Center for Earthquake Research and Information (CERI) at the University of Memphis, one earthquake originated in Kendall Figure EQ-3 Approximate Number of Earthquakes Recorded Annually Earthquake Fast Facts – Occurrences Earthquakes Originating in the County (1795 – 2022): 1 Fault Zones Located within the County: 1 Geological Structures Located within the County: None Earthquakes Originating in Adjacent Counties (1795-2022): 6 Fault Zones Located in Nearby Counties: None Geologic Structures Located in Adjacent Counties: 1 Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 171 County during the last 200 years. On January 2, 1912, an estimated 4.0 to 4.9 magnitude earthquake originated northwest of Lisbon. This earthquake has an intensity rating of VI on the on the Modified Mercalli Intensity Scale. Source: Illinois State Geological Survey. Additionally, County residents have felt ground shaking caused by earthquakes that have originated outside of the County. The following provides a brief description of these events while Figure EQ-5 illustrates the epicenters this and nearby earthquakes. Northeastern Illinois Six earthquakes have originated in nearby LaSalle, Kane, and Will Counties. The following provides a brief description of each.  On February 10, 2010 a magnitude 3.8 earthquake took place approximately two miles northeast of Virgil in Kane County. This earthquake was felt over much of Illinois, Indiana and central and southern Wisconsin. This earthquake had an intensity of IV on the Modified Mercalli Intensity Scale.  An earthquake with a magnitude of 4.1 originated approximately eight miles northwest of Ottawa in LaSalle County on January 28, 2004. Ground shaking was felt across six states. This earthquake had an intensity of V on the Modified Mercalli Intensity Scale. Figure EQ-4 Geological Structures in Northern Illinois Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 172 Source: Illinois State Geological Survey.  On March 16, 1947, an earthquake with an estimated magnitude 2.6 originated in West Dundee in Kane County. This earthquake had an intensity of IV on the Modified Mercalli Intensity Scale.  An earthquake with an estimated magnitude of 2.6 in South Elgin in Kane County on March 16, 1944. This earthquake had an intensity of IV on the Modified Mercalli Intensity Scale.  On May 26, 1909, an earthquake with a magnitude of 5.1 originated somewhere in where Will, Kendall, Kane, and DuPage Counties meet. The exact location of this earthquake isn’t known. No intensity rating was available for this event.  An earthquake with an estimated magnitude of 4.4 originated approximately two miles west of Oglesby in LaSalle County on May 27, 1881. This earthquake had an intensity of VI on the Modified Mercalli Intensity Scale. Northern Illinois In addition to the above referenced event, there have been approximately two dozen other earthquakes that have occurred in northern Illinois in the last century, though none of them were greater than a magnitude 5.1. These earthquakes generally caused minor damage within 10 to 20 miles of the epicenter and were felt over several counties. Earthquakes greater than a magnitude 5 are generally not expected in this region. The following highlights a few of the other recent earthquakes that have taken place in northern Illinois.  A magnitude 3.6 earthquake took place on November 6, 2023 approximately one mile from Standard in Putnam County. This earthquake had an intensity of IV on the Modified Mercalli Intensity Scale. Figure EQ-5 Earthquakes Originating in Kendall Illinois Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 173  On March 25, 2015 a magnitude 2.9 earthquake took place at Lake in the Hills in McHenry County. This earthquake was felt over several counties. Damage information was unavailable for this event. This earthquake had an intensity of IV on the Modified Mercalli Intensity Scale.  A magnitude 3.2 earthquake took place on November 4, 2013 on the east side of McCook in Cook County. This earthquake was felt mainly in the Chicago metro area. No intensity rating was available for this event. Southern Illinois In addition to the above referenced events, Kendall County residents also felt ground shaking caused by several earthquakes that have originated in southern Illinois. The following provides a brief description of a few of the larger events that have occurred.  On April 18, 2008, a magnitude 5.2 earthquake was reported in southeastern Illinois near Bellmont in Wabash County. The earthquake was located along the Wabash Valley seismic zone. Minor structural damage was reported in several towns in Illinois and Kentucky. Ground shaking was felt over all or parts of 18 states in the central U.S. and southern Ontario, Canada.  A magnitude 5.2 earthquake took place on June 10, 1987, in southeastern Illinois near Olney in Richland County. This earthquake was also located along the Wabash Valley seismic zone. Only minor structural damage was reported in several towns in Illinois and Indiana. Ground shaking was felt over all or parts of 17 states in the central and eastern U.S. and southern Ontario, Canada.  The strongest earthquake in the central U.S. during the 20th century occurred along the Wabash Valley seismic zone in southeastern Illinois near Dale in Hamilton County. This magnitude 5.4 earthquake occurred on November 9, 1968, with an intensity estimated at VII for the area surrounding the epicenter. Moderate structural damage was reported in several towns in south- central Illinois, southwest Indiana, and northwest Kentucky. Ground shaking was felt over all or parts of 23 states in the central and eastern U.S. and southern Ontario, Canada. Three of the ten largest earthquakes ever recorded within the continental U.S. took place in 1811 and 1812 along the New Madrid seismic zone. This zone lies within the central Mississippi Valley and extends from northeast Arkansas through southeast Missouri, western Tennessee, western Kentucky, and southern Illinois. These magnitude 7.5 and 7.3 major earthquakes were centered near the town of New Madrid, Missouri and caused widespread devastation to the surrounding region and were felt by people in cities as far away as Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and Norfolk, Virginia. The quakes locally changed the course of the Mississippi River creating Reelfoot Lake in northwestern Tennessee. These earthquakes were not an isolated incident. The New Madrid seismic zone is one of the most seismically active areas of the U.S. east of the Rockies. Since 1974 more than 4,000 earthquakes have been recorded within this seismic zone, most of which were too small to be felt. What locations are affected by earthquakes? What is the extent of future potential earthquakes? Earthquake events generally affect the entire County. Earthquakes, like drought, impact large areas extending across an entire region and affecting multiple counties. Kendall County’s Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 174 proximity to multiple fault zones, both large and small, makes the entire area likely to be affected by an earthquake if these faults become seismically active. According to the USGS, Kendall County can expect 2 to 10 occurrences of damaging earthquake shaking over a 10,000-year period. Figure EQ-6 illustrates the frequency of damaging earthquake shaking around the U.S. Source: U.S. Geological Survey. What is the probability of future earthquake events occurring based on historical data? As with flooding, calculating the probability of future earthquakes changes depending on the magnitude of the event. According to the ISGS, Illinois is expected to experience a magnitude 3.0 earthquake every year, a magnitude 4.0 earthquake every four years and a magnitude 5.0 earthquake every 20 years. The likelihood of an earthquake with a magnitude of 6.3 or greater occurring somewhere in the central U.S. within the next 50 years is between 86% and 97%. While the major earthquakes of 1811 and 1812 do not occur often along the New Madrid fault, they are not isolated events. In recent decades, scientists have collected evidence that earthquakes similar in size and location to those felt in 1811 and 1812 have occurred several times before within the central Mississippi Valley around 1450 A.D., 900 A.D. and 2350 B.C. Figure EQ-6 Frequency of Damaging Earthquake Shaking Around the U.S. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 175 The general consensus among scientists is that earthquakes similar to the 1811-1812 earthquakes are expected to recur on average every 500 years. The U.S. Geological Survey and the Center for Earthquake Research and Information (CERI) at the University of Memphis estimates that for a 50-year period the probability of a repeat of the 1811-1812 earthquakes is between 7% and 10% and the probability of an earthquake with a magnitude of 6.0 or larger is between 25% and 40%. HAZARD VULNERABILITY The following describes the vulnerability to participating jurisdictions, identifies the impacts on public health and property (if known) and estimates the potential impacts on public health and safety as well as buildings, infrastructure, and critical facilities from earthquakes. Are the participating jurisdictions vulnerable to earthquakes? Yes. All of Kendall County is vulnerable to earthquakes. The unique geological formations topped with glacial drift soils found in the central U.S. conduct an earthquake’s energy farther than in other parts of the Nation. Consequently, earthquakes that originate in the Midwest tend to be felt at greater distances than earthquakes with similar magnitudes that originate on the West Coast. This vulnerability, found throughout most of Illinois and all of Kendall County, is compounded by relatively high water tables within the region. When earthquake shaking mixes the groundwater and soil, ground support is further weakened thus adding to the potential structural damages experienced by buildings, roads, bridges, electrical lines, and natural gas pipelines. The infrequency of major earthquakes, coupled with relatively low magnitude/intensity of past events, has led the public to perceive that Kendall County is not vulnerable to damaging earthquakes. This perception has allowed the County and participating municipalities to develop largely without regard to earthquake safety. The 2023 Illinois Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan prepared by IEMA-OHS classifies Kendall County’s hazard rating for earthquake as “very low”. IEMA-OHS’s overall hazard rating system has five levels: very low, low, medium, high, and very high. For earthquakes, FEMA’s National Risk Index (NRI) rates the County as a whole as “relatively low”. All 24 census tracts are rated “Relatively Low” or “Very Low” for earthquakes. Table R-5 presents the overall NRI scores and ratings for each census tract as well as for the County as a whole. Earthquake Fast Facts – Risk Earthquake Risk/Vulnerability: Public Health & Safety – Light/Moderate Quake within the County or immediate region: Low Public Health & Safety – Strong Quake within the County or immediate region: Low to Medium Buildings/Infrastructure/Critical Facilities – Light/ Moderate Quake within the County or immediate region: Low Buildings/Infrastructure/Critical Facilities – Strong Quake within the County or immediate region: Low to Medium Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 176 Have any of the participating jurisdictions identified specific assets vulnerable to the impacts of earthquakes? No. Based on responses to an Assets Vulnerability Survey distributed to the participating jurisdictions, none of the participating jurisdictions consider specific assets within their jurisdictions vulnerable to earthquakes. What impacts resulted from the recorded earthquake events? Property damage figures were either unavailable or none were recorded, and no injuries or fatalities were reported as a result of the January 2, 1912 earthquake that originated in Kendall County. While Kendall County residents felt the earthquakes that have occurred in Illinois, no damages were reported as a result of these events. Gi ven the magnitude of the great earthquakes of 1811 and 1812, it is almost certain that individuals in what is now Kendall County felt those quakes; however, historical records do not indicate the intensity or impacts that these quakes had on the County. What other impacts can result from earthquakes? Earthquakes can impact human life, health, and public safety. Figure EQ-7 details the potential impacts that may be experienced by the County should a magnitude 6.0 or greater earthquake occur in the region. What is the level of vulnerability to public health and safety from earthquakes? The risk or vulnerability to public health and safety from an earthquake is dependent on the intensity and location of the event. Since there is one known fault in Kendall County, there is the possibility that another earthquake will originate in the County at some point in the future and cause damage. However, there have not been any earthquakes associated with these faults in the last 200 years and the fault zones in northern Illinois are not expected to produce an earthquake greater than a magnitude 5.0. Therefore, if a light earthquake originates within the County or from the structures in the immediate region, the risk or vulnerability to public health and safety is considered low. This risk is elevated to low to medium for a strong earthquake originating in the immediate region and medium for a strong earthquake originating within the County. Are existing buildings, infrastructure, and critical facilities vulnerable to earthquakes? Yes. All existing buildings, infrastructure and critical facilities located in Kendall County and the participating jurisdictions are vulnerable to damage from earthquakes. However, given the County’s size (about 131,000 individuals), its population density, the fact that there are few buildings higher than two stories (with the exception of grain elevators and multi-story buildings in Oswego) tempered by the low potential for magnitude 5.0 and above earthquakes to occur in the immediate region, the damage is anticipated to be slight with only superficial structure damage such as broken windows and cracks in weak plaster and masonry. If a strong earthquake (6.0 – 6.9) were to occur in the region, then unreinforced masonry buildings are most at risk during an earthquake because the walls are prone to collapse outward. Steel and wood buildings have more ability to absorb the energy from an earthquake while wood buildings with proper foundation ties have rarely collapsed in earthquakes. In this scenario building damage in Kendall County would range from moderate to considerable for well-built ordinary structures and considerable to severe for poorly-built structures. Figure EQ-8, located at the end of this Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 177 section, identifies the number of unreinforced masonry buildings that serve as critical facilities within the participating jurisdictions. Figure EQ-7 Potential Earthquake Impacts Direct Indirect Buildings  Temporary displacement of businesses, households, schools, and other critical services where heat, water and power are disrupted  Long-term displacement of businesses, households, schools, and other critical services due to structural damage or fires Transportation  Damages to bridges (i.e., cracking of abutments, subsidence of piers/supports, etc.)  Cracks in the pavement of critical roadways  Increased traffic on Interstate, U.S., and State Routes (especially if the quake originates along the Sandwich Fault Zone) as residents move out of the area to seek shelter and medical care and as emergency response, support services and supplies move south to aid in recovery  Misalignment of rail lines due to landslides (most likely near stream crossings), fissures and/or heaving Utilities  Downed power and communication lines  Breaks in drinking water and sanitary sewer lines resulting in the temporary loss of service  Disruptions in the supply of natural gas due to cracking and breaking of pipelines Health  Injuries/deaths due to falling debris and fires Other  Cracks in the earthen dams of the lakes and reservoirs within the County which could lead to dam failures Health  Use of County health facilities (especially if the quake originates along the New Madrid Fault) to treat individuals injured closer to the epicenter  Emergency services (ambulance, fire, law enforcement) may be needed to provide aid in areas where damage was greater Other  Disruptions in land line telephone service throughout an entire region (i.e., central and southern Illinois)  Depending on the seasonal conditions present, more displacements may be expected as those who may not have enough water and food supplies seek alternate shelter due to temperature extremes that make their current housing uninhabitable An earthquake also has the ability to damage infrastructure and critical facilities such as roads and utilities. In the event of a major earthquake, bridges are expected to experience moderate damage such as cracking in the abutments and subsidence of piers and supports. The structural integrity may be compromised to the degree where safe passage is not possible, resulting in adverse travel times as alternate routes are taken. Some rural families may become isolated where alternate paved routes do not exist. In addition, cracks may form in the pavement of key roadways. Figure R-6 lists the number of each type of critical infrastructure by jurisdiction. An earthquake may also down overhead power and communication lines causing power outages and disruptions in communications. Cracks or breaks may form in natural gas pipelines and Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 178 drinking water and sewage lines resulting in temporary loss of service. In addition, an earthquake could cause cracks to form in the earthen dams located within the County, increasing the likelihood of a dam failure. As with public health and safety, the risk or vulnerability to buildings, infrastructure and critical facilities is dependent on the intensity and location of the event. The risk to buildings, infrastructure and critical facilities is considered to be low for a light to moderate earthquake that originates within the County or immediate region. This risk is elevated to low/medium for a strong earthquake originating in the immediate region and medium for a strong earthquake originating within the County. Are future buildings, infrastructure, and critical facilities vulnerable to earthquakes? Yes. All future buildings, infrastructure and critical facilities located in Kendall County and the participating jurisdictions are vulnerable to damage from earthquakes. While the County and all of the participating municipalities, with the exception of Lisbon and Plattville, have building codes in place, these codes do not contain seismic provisions that address structural vulnerability for earthquakes. As a result, there is the potential for future buildings, infrastructure, and critical facilities to face the same vulnerabilities as those of existing buildings, infrastructure, and critical facilities described previously. What are the potential dollar losses to vulnerable structures from earthquakes? Since property damage information was either unavailable or none was recorded for the documented earthquakes that impacted Kendall County, there is no way to accurately estimate future potential dollar losses to vulnerable structures. However, according to County officials the total equalized assessed values of all residential, commercial, and industrial buildings in the planning area is $4,444,350,435. Since all of the structures in the planning area are susceptible to earthquake impacts to varying degrees, this total represents the countywide property exposure to earthquake events. Given Kendall County’s proximity to geologic structures and fault zones, both large and small, and the fact that all structures within the County are vulnerable to damage, it is likely that there will be future dollar losses from any earthquake ranging from strong to great. As a result, participating jurisdictions were asked to consider mitigation projects that could provide wide ranging benefits for reducing the impacts or damages associated with earthquakes.

Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 180 3.9 MAN-MADE HAZARDS While the focus of this Plan update is on natural hazards, an overview of selected man-made hazards has been included. The Committee recognizes that man-made hazards can also pose risks to public health and property. The extent and magnitude of the impacts that result from man- made hazard events can be influenced by natural hazard events. For example, severe winter storms can cause accidents involving trucks transporting hazardous substances. These accidents may lead to the release of these substances, which can result in injury and potential contamination of the natural environment. Consequently, the Planning Committee decided to summarize the more prominent man-made hazards in Kendall County. The man-made hazards profiled in this Plan update include:  Hazardous Substances  Generation  Transportation  Storage/Handling  Waste Disposal  Hazardous Material Incidents  Hazardous Waste Remediation  Nuclear Incidents  Terrorism While the man-made hazards risk assessment does not have the same depth as the natural hazards risk assessment, it does provide useful information that places the various man-made hazards in perspective. 3.9.1 Hazardous Substances Hazardous substances broadly include any flammable, explosive, biological, chemical, or physical material that has the potential to harm public health or the environment. For the purposes of this Plan, the term hazardous substance includes hazardous product and hazardous waste. A hazardous waste is defined as the byproduct of a manufacturing process that is either listed or has the characteristics of ignitability, corrosivity, reactivity, or toxicity and cannot be reused. A hazardous product is all other hazardous material. Hazardous substances can pose a public health threat to individuals at their workplace and where they reside. The type and quantity of the substance, the pathway of exposure (inhalation, ingestion, dermal, etc.), and the frequency of exposure are factors that will determine the risk of adverse health effects experienced by individuals. Impacts can range from minor, short-term health issues to chronic, long-term illnesses. In addition to impacting public health, hazardous substances can also cause damage to buildings, infrastructure, and the environment. Incidents involving hazardous substances can range from minor (scarring on building floors and walls) to catastrophic (i.e., destruction of entire buildings, structural damage to roadways, etc.) and lead to injuries and fatalities. The number of incidents involving hazardous substances in Illinois and across the U.S. every year underscores the need for trained and equipped emergency responders to minimize damages. Since 1970, significant changes have occurred in regard to how hazardous substances are transported and disposed. Comprehensive regulations and improved safety and industrial hygiene practices have reduced the frequency of incidents involving hazardous substances. Based on the Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 181 small number of facilities in Kendall County that generate and use hazardous substances, the population size, transportation patterns, and land use, the probability of a release occurring in Kendall County should remain similar to other counties in Illinois. The relatively low numbers of transportation incidents should not diminish municipal or county commitment to emergency management. HAZARD PROFILE – HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES The following subsections identify the general pathways – generation, transportation, and storage/handling – by which hazardous substances pose a risk to public health and the environment in Kendall County. 3.9.1.1 Generation Kendall County has two facilities that generate reportable quantities of hazardous substances as a result of their operations according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) Toxic Release Inventory. Figure MMH-1 identifies the hazardous substance generators located in Kendall County and summarizes the substances generated. Figure MMH-1 Generators of Solid & Liquid Hazardous Substances – 2021 Name Hazardous Substances Generated Amount Generated (Pounds) Plano Midwest Manufacturing Copper compounds 0 Treating Plant Total: 0 Plano Metal Specialties Inc Copper 106 Lead compounds 3 Total: 109 Source: U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, TRI Explorer, Releases: Facility Report. 3.9.1.2 Transportation Roadways Illinois has the nation’s third largest interstate system and third largest inventory of bridges. According to the Illinois Department of Transportation, there were just over 147,000 miles of highways and streets in Illinois in 2021. Most of the truck traffic in Kendall County is carried on Interstate 80. Other major roadways that carry truck traffic include U.S. Route 30, U.S. Route 34, U.S. Route 52, Illinois Route 25, Illinois Route 31, Illinois Route 47, Illinois Route 71, and Illinois Route 126.

A Commodity Flow Study to gauge chemical transport has not been conducted for Kendall County. According to records obtained from the Illinois Emergency Management Agency (IEMA), there were 11 recorded roadway incidents involving the shipment of hazardous substances in Kendall County between 2012 through 2021. Figure MMH-2 provides information on these incidents.

Vehicles that experience a release while refueling are not considered roadway incidents but are instead considered fixed facility incidents.  Accident verified in the vicinity of this area. Railways Illinois’ rail system is the country’s second largest, with the East St. Louis and Chicago terminals being two of the busiest in the nation. In Kendall County there is one Class I rail line operated by Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway. According to the Association of American Railroads, 3,796,300 carloads (125.9 million tons) of freight originated in Illinois in 2019 (the latest year for which data is available). Chemicals accounted for 101,100 carloads (9.7 million tons) or 2.8% of the total freight handled. In comparison, 27,549,000 carloads of freight originated in the U.S. in 2019 with approximately 2,014,000 carloads (7.1%) involved in the transport of chemicals. The Illinois Commerce Commission (ICC) is required to maintain records on railway accidents/incidents that involve hazardous substances. Their records are divided into three categories. These three categories are described in Figure MMH-3. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 183 Figure MMH-3 ICC Hazardous Substances Railroad Accident/Incidents Classification Categories Category Description A railroad derailments resulting in the release of the hazards substance(s) being transported B railroad derailments where hazards substance(s) were being transported but no release occurred C releases of hazardous substance(s)s from railroad equipment occurred; however, no railroad derailment was involved Since 2012, there have been no rail accidents involving hazardous substances in Kendall County according to the ICC. In comparison, ICC records indicate that since 2012 the annual number of railway accidents in Illinois involving hazardous substances has ranged between 45 and 122. Figure MMH-4, located at the end of this section, provides a breakdown by category of the ICC- recorded railway accidents/incidents involving hazardous substances. Included is a comparison of the number of accidents/incidents in Kendall County to those in Cook and the Collar Counties as well as the rest of Illinois. According IEMA’s hazardous materials incident records for 2013 through 2022, there was an additional rail accident/incident involving the release of hazardous substances. Figure MMH 5 provides information on these incidents by rail line. No derailments were associated with any of these accidents/incidents.

Source: Illinois Emergency Management Agency, Hazardous Materials Incident Reports. The top 20 hazardous substances moved by rail through Illinois include: sodium hydroxide, petroleum gases (liquefied), sulfuric acid, anhydrous ammonia, chlorine, sulfur, vinyl chloride, propane, fuel oil, denatured alcohol, methanol, gasoline, phosphoric acid, hydrochloric acid, styrene monomer, carbon dioxide (refrigerated liquid), ammonium nitrate, sodium chlorate, and diesel fuel. Pipelines Energy gases (natural gas and liquefied petroleum gas), petroleum liquids (crude oil and gasoline), and liquid and gas products used in industrial processes are carried in above-ground and buried pipelines across Illinois. In Kendall County, there are five major pipelines that carry natural gas, one each operated by ANR Pipeline Co., Guardian Pipeline LLC, Kendall Power Co., natural Gas Pipeline of America, and Northern Border Pipeline. There are also two major pipelines carrying crude oil, gasoline, or hazardous liquids crossing the County from northwest to southeast. One is Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Risk Assessment 184 operated by Amoco Oil Co. and the other is operated by Enbridge Energy. Figure MMH-6 shows the pipelines in Kendall County. Three natural gas pipeline releases occurred in Kendall County during a 10-year period from 2012 through 2021. All of the releases occurred at the ANR Pipeline Company’s Sandwich Compressor Station in unincorporated Kendall County. The first release occurred on July 13, 2012 when gas leaked by a fuel line block/bleed valve and some accumulated in the blowdown exhaust silencer and was ignited by a mechanical spark from the turbocharger causing an explosion to occur inside the silencer, damaging the silencer and nearby connecting facilities. No personnel were injured in the incident. The second release occurred on August 9, 2013 when gas that had leaked into the crankcase of a unit ignited causing an explosion that damaged the engine and building. Three technicians received first aid attention for their minor injuries at a local medical clinic. The third release occurred on September 2, 2017 when two release valves were incorrectly positions allowing gas to vent from the station intermittently for about 31 minutes. There have been several high-profile incidents across the U.S., including one in Illinois, that have raised public concerns about our aging pipeline infrastructure. The following provides a brief description of each incident.  On July 26, 2010, a 30-inch liquid product pipeline rupture near Marshall, Michigan and released at least 840,000 gallons of oil into a creek that led to the Kalamazoo River, a tributary of Lake Michigan.  On September 9, 2010, another pipeline release received national attention. A 34-inch liquid product pipeline in the Chicago suburb of Romeoville, Illinois released more than 360,000 gallons of crude oil that flowed through sewers and into a retention pond narrowly avoiding the Des Plaines River. This release triggered numerous odor complaints from residents in the adjacent municipalities of Lemont and Bolingbrook. The property damage/cleanup costs were estimated at $46.6 million.  Also, on September 9, 2010, a 30-inch-high pressure natural gas pipeline ruptured in the San Francisco suburb of San Bruno, California that resulted in an explosion that killed  eight people, injured 51, destroyed over 30 homes and damaged an entire neighborhood. The property damage was estimated at around $55 million.  On March 12, 2014, a gas main rupture in Manhattan, New York resulted in an explosion that killed eight people and leveled two multi-use, five story buildings.  On May 19, 2015, a 24-inch liquid product pipeline ruptured near Refugio State Beach in Santa Barbara County, California and released approximately 100,000 gallons of crude oil. The release occurred along a rustic stretch of coastline that forms the northern boundary of the Santa Barbara Channel, home to a rich array of sea life. Oil ran down a ravine and entered the Pacific Ocean, blackening area beaches, creating a 9-mile oil slick and impacting birds, marine mammals, fish, and coastal and subtidal habitats.

In addition to normal wear and tear experienced by pipelines, the possibility of sabotage and seismic activity triggering a release must be considered when contemplating emergency response scenarios. 3.9.1.3 Storage/Handling Beyond knowing where hazardous substances are generated and the methods and routes used to transport them, it is important to identify where hazardous substances are handled and stored. This information will help government officials and emergency management professionals make informed choices on how to better protect human health, property and the environment and what resources are needed should an incident take place. Records obtained from IEMA-OHS’s Tier II database were used to gather information on the facilities that generate, use and store chemicals in excess of reportable threshold quantities within Kendall County. The Tier II information was then compared with USEPA’s Toxic Release Inventory (TRI) and information from Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA) databases. This review identified 41 facilities within Kendall County in 2021 that store and handle hazardous substances Of these 41 facilities, 13 reported the presence of Extremely Hazardous Substances (EHSs) at their facilities. An EHS is any USEPA-identified chemical that could cause serious, irreversible health effects from an accidental release. There are approximately 400 chemicals identified as EHSs. Stationary sources that possess one or more of these substances at or above threshold reporting quantities are required to notify IEMA. 3.9.2 Waste Disposal Waste disposal has caused surface water and ground water contamination in Illinois and across the U.S. Beginning in the late 1970s substantial regulatory changes strengthened the design, operating and monitoring requirements for landfills where the majority of waste is disposed. These regulatory changes have helped reduce the public health threat posed by landfills. HAZARD PROFILE – WASTE DISPOSAL The following subsections identify the general pathways – solid, medical, and hazardous – by which waste disposal poses a risk to public health and the environment in Kendall County. 3.9.2.1 Solid Waste While recycling activities have reduced the amount of solid waste (waste generated in households), the majority continues to be disposed of in landfills. As of 2021, there were 36 landfills operating in Illinois. Waste Disposal Fast Facts - Occurrences Solid Waste Number of Solid Waste Landfills Operating in Kendall County (2022): None Number of Landfills Serving Kendall and adjacent counties (2022): 4 Potentially-Infectious Medical Waste (PIMW) Number of Facilities within the County Permitted to Handle PIMW: None Hazardous Waste Number of Commercial Off-Site Hazardous Waste Treatment or Disposal Facilities located in the County: None Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan January 2024 Risk Assessment 187 According IEPA’s Annual Landfill Capacity Report issued in July 2022, there were no commercial landfills that operate in Kendall County. There are currently four landfills that serve Kendall and the adjacent counties. These landfills include Laraway Recycling and Disposal in Joliet (Will County), Prairie View Recycling and Disposal in Wilmington (Will County), DeKalb County Landfill in DeKalb (DeKalb County), and the LandComp Landfill in Ottawa (LaSalle County). 3.9.2.2 Potentially- Infectious Medical Waste Potentially-Infectious Medical Waste (PIMW) is generated in connection with medical research; biological testing; and the diagnosis, treatment or immunization of human beings or animals. PIMW is typically generated at hospitals, nursing homes, medical or veterinary clinics, dental offices, clinical or pharmaceutical laboratories, and research facilities. According to IEPA’s list of permitted PIMW Facilities, there are no facilities permitted to accept medical waste for disposal in Kendall County. 3.9.2.3 Hazardous Waste A hazardous waste is defined as the byproduct of a manufacturing process that is either listed or has the characteristics of ignitability, corrosivity, reactivity, or toxicity and cannot be reused. According to IEPA’s Storage, Treatment, Recycling, Incinerating, Transfer Stations, and Processing list, there are currently no off-site hazardous waste treatment or disposal facilities located in Kendall County. 3.9.3 Hazardous Material Incidents A hazardous material or hazmat incident refers to any accident involving the release of hazardous substances, which broadly include any flammable, explosive, biological, chemical, or physical material that has the potential to harm public health or the environment. These incidents can take place where the substances are used, generated, or stored or while they are being transported. In addition, hazmat incidents also include the release of hazardous substances, such as fuel, used to operate vehicles. These releases can be the result of an accident or a leak. HAZARD PROFILE – HAZARDOUS MATERIALS INCIDENTS From 2012 to 2021, there were 30 hazmat incidents recorded in Kendall County. Of these incidents, 12 (40%) involved transportation incidents or accidents while 18 (60%) occurred at fixed facilities. Eleven (37) of the 12 (74%) transportation incidents or accidents involved petroleum-based products. Based on the recorded incidents, Kendall County experienced an average of three hazmat incidents annually from 2012 through 2021. The types of existing industries; the major transportation corridors through the County, which include interstate and Illinois highways, rail, and pipeline; and chemical use within and adjacent to the County suggest that hazmat incidents are likely to Hazmat Incident Fast Facts - Occurrences Number of Hazardous Material Incidents in Kendall County (2012 - 2021): 30 Number of Transportation-Related Incidents/Accidents: 12 Number of Fixed Facility-Related Incidents/Accidents: 18 Average Number of Hazardous Material Incidents Experienced Annually: 3 Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan January 2024 Risk Assessment 188 continue to take place at the rate reflected in the 10-year study period. Constant vigilance, proper training and equipment, and prompt response are needed to minimize the potential impacts of each incident. 3.9.4 Waste Remediation The improper disposal or containment of special and hazardous waste through the years has led to soil, groundwater, and surface water contamination of sites across the U.S. In order to safeguard human health and the environment, these contaminants must be removed or neutralized so they cannot cause harm. This process is known as waste remediation. HAZARD PROFILE – WASTE REMEDIATION In Illinois, waste remediation is handled through several programs including the federal Superfund program, the State Response Action Program, the state Site Remediation Program, and the Leaking Underground Storage Tanks Program. The following provides a brief description of each. Superfund (CERLCA) Program/ National Priorities List Superfund is a USEPA-led program to clean up sites within the U.S. contaminated by hazardous waste that has been dumped, left out in the open, or otherwise improperly managed and which pose a risk to human health and/or the environment. Sites of national priority among the known or threatened releases of hazardous substances, pollutants or contaminants throughout the U.S. and its territories are identified on the National Priorities List (NPL). Those sites that pose the largest threat to public health and the environment are typically found on the NPL. According to the NPL database, there are 45 Superfund sites in Illinois. There are no Superfund sites in Kendall County. State Response Action Program (SRAP) The main objective of the State Response Action Program (SRAP) is to clean up hazardous substances at sites that present an imminent and substantial threat to human health and the environment, but which may not be addressed by other federal or state cleanup programs. The sites handled by the SRAP include abandoned landfills, old manufacturing plants, former waste oil recycling operations, contaminated agrichemical facilities, and other areas where surface water, groundwater, soil, and air may be contaminated with hazardous substances. Since the mid-1980s, cleanup activities have been conducted at more than 500 sites in Illinois through this Program. Once the threat to human health and the environment has been mitigated, some sites are transferred to other state cleanup programs to complete remediation activities.

Illinois Site Remediation Program (SRP) The Site Remediation Program (SRP) is a voluntary cleanup program that provides applicants the opportunity to receive technical assistance in determining what course of action is needed to remediate sites where hazardous substances, pesticides, or petroleum may be present. The goal of the SRP is to receive a no further remediation determination from IEPA. Most site remediation in Illinois is handled through this Program. Since the mid-1980s, remediation activities have been conducted and monitored at approximately 5,800 sites in Illinois. Properties that satisfy respective IEPA laws and regulations can receive a No Further Remediation (NFR) letter. They must demonstrate, through proper investigation and, when warranted, remedial action, that environmental conditions at their remediation site do not present a significant risk to human health or the environment. This letter describes what remediation activities have been taken and whether any portion of the property, based on future property use, might need additional remediation. There are 16 SRP sites in Kendall County. Twelve of the 16 SRP sites (75%) have received NFR or 4Y letters. The remaining four sites do not pose an immediate threat to public health or the environment. Leaking Underground Storage Tank Program (LUST) The Leaking Underground Storage Tanks Program (LUST) oversees remedial activities associated with petroleum product releases from underground storage tanks (UST). This program began in the late 1980s as a result of the threats posed by vapors in homes and businesses, contaminated groundwater, and contaminated soil. In Illinois, more than 14,500 acres of soil contaminated by leaking underground tanks have been remediated between 1988 and 2010 (the most recent year for which data was available). In Kendall County, there are 79 sites involving the remediation of petroleum product releases from underground storage tanks. Of the 79 LUST sites, 66 (84%) have received NFR letters, other clearance letters, or remediation is virtually complete. 3.9.5 Nuclear Incidents The term “nuclear incident” refers to the release of significant levels of radioactive material or exposure of the general public to radiation. This section does not address the intentional or malicious release of radioactive materials as a result of a terrorism activity. Exposure to dangerous levels of radiation can have varying health effects on people and animals. Impacts range from minor health issues to fatal illnesses. HAZARD PROFILE – NUCLEAR INCIDENTS In Kendall County, residents could be exposed to radioactive material and/or radiation from a nuclear incident that occurs:  at the Dresden Generating Station located in Grundy County;  at the Braidwood Generating Station located in Will County; Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan January 2024 Risk Assessment 190  at the LaSalle Generating Station located in LaSalle County;  at the Byron Generating Station located in Ogle County; or  as spent nuclear fuel rods are being transported by railway through the County. There have been no nuclear incidents and therefore no injuries or damages associated with any of the nuclear power facility or the transportation of spent nuclear fuel rods through Kendall County. 3.9.5.1 Power Facilities Commercial nuclear facilities constructed in the U.S. should withstand most natural hazards such as tornadoes and severe storms that frequently occur in Illinois. Nonetheless, IEMA-OHS has developed a Radiological Emergency Response Plan in cooperation with other state and local governments. Procedures are in place and exercises are conducted with state and local officials to protect the public in the unlikely event of a nuclear emergency. There are four nuclear generating stations relatively close to Kendall County operated by Constellation Energy. Figure MMH-7 identifies the facility, its location, and its respective distance to the Kendall County border. Figure MMH-7 Nuclear Generating Stations Near Kendall County Nuclear Generating Station Name Location Distance to Kendall County Border Braidwood Generating Station 1.25 miles northeast of Braceville Will County 15 miles Byron Generating Station 3.25 miles south of Byron Ogle County 43 miles Dresden Generating Station 7 miles east of Morris Grundy County 5 miles LaSalle County Generating Station 4.5 miles south of Marseilles LaSalle County 15 miles An Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) around each nuclear facility is assessed to estimate potential damages to the public and critical infrastructure. EPZs typically include a 10-mile Critical Risk Zone and a 50-mile Ingestion Pathway Zone. Ingestion refers to radiation that might enter a person’s body. The southeast portion of Kendall County falls within the 10-mile Critical Risk Zone for the Dresden Generating Station. The entire county falls within the 50-mile Ingestion Pathway Zone for the Braidwood, Dresden, and LaSalle County Generating Stations, while the northwest portion of the County falls within the 50-mile Ingestion Pathway Zone for the Byron Generating Station. Figure MMH-8 identifies the locations that fall within these zones.

A significant incident might require individuals to stay indoors or to evacuate to temporary relocation centers. Temporary relocation centers have been established for Kendall County residents should a significant event requiring evacuation occur at the nearby nuclear power facility. To protect the food supply, persons owning livestock may be advised to remove all livestock from pasture, shelter if possible, and provide them with stored feed and protected water. The American Nuclear Insurers (ANI) Company provides insurance to cover the Exelon Corporation’s legal liability up to the limits imposed by the Price-Anderson Act, for bodily injury and property damage such as the loss of livestock and crops caused by a nuclear energy incident at the Clinton Generator Station. No nuclear power facilities have had any incidents that have impacted Kendall County. The probability of an incident causing off-site impacts appears low. 3.9.5.2 Transportation of Spent Nuclear Fuel Rods by Railway The protocol for moving spent nuclear fuel rods from nuclear power plants requires that the train be stopped and inspected before moving through Illinois and that it be escorted as it moves through the State. Inspection of the track ahead of the train is also required to reduce the risk of derailment. While movement of nuclear material has been minimal as the U.S. grapples with the issue of developing national or regional repositories, more rail movement is anticipated in the future. At the present time, the nuclear power facility previously mentioned is storing spent fuel rods on-site. If a national or regional repository is established, then the spent fuel rods will be moved off-site. According to the Illinois Commerce Commission, there has never been a railway transportation accident resulting in the release of radioactive material; however, widespread concern remains regarding its safe transportation. 3.9.6 Terrorism Terrorism has different definitions across the globe. For the purpose of this Plan, terrorism will be defined as any event that includes violent acts which threaten, or harm lives, health or property Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan January 2024 Risk Assessment 192 conducted by domestic or foreign individuals or groups aimed at civilians, the federal government or symbolic locations intended to cause widespread fear. HAZARD PROFILE – TERRORISM The attack on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon on September 11, 2001 by foreign terrorists galvanized national action against terrorism and resulted in the creation of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. While the number of terrorist activities garnering national attention in the U.S. has been relatively small, approximately 201,183 terrorist events have occurred worldwide between 1970 and 2019, according to the National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism (the Consortium). During this same time span, the Consortium documented 3,004 terrorist events within the U.S. Acts of terrorism have resulted in fatalities and injuries as a result of kidnappings, hijackings, bombings, and the use of chemical and biological weapons. The Global Terrorism Database has documented 3,633 American fatalities in the U.S. between 1995 and 2019 from terrorist attacks. The attacks on September 11, 2001 account for 3,001of the 3,633 fatalities. A search of the Global Terrorism Database identified 117 incidents of terrorism in Illinois between 1970 and 2019. These incidents resulted in six fatalities and 38 injuries. The Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI) provides supporting documentation on domestic terrorist attacks in a series of reports on terrorism. These r eports provide a chronological summary of terrorist incidents in the U.S. with detailed information on attacks between 1980 and 2005. During this time period, 192 incidents were documented within the U.S. Six of these incidents occurred in Illinois; five in the Chicago area and one downstate. Other more recent events in Illinois occurred on September 24, 2009 when a single individual from Macon County sought to carry out his anger at the federal government by detonating a van filled with explosive outside of the Federal Courthouse in Springfield. This attempt was thwarted by the FBI. On May 16, 2018 at around 8:00 a.m., 19-year-old boy, armed with a 9-mm semi-automatic rifle, fired several shots near the Dixon High School Gymnasium where approximately 180 students were practicing for graduation. The school’s resource officer confronted the shooter, who fled from the school on foot. The shooter fired several shots at the resource officer, who returned fire, wounding the shooter in the shoulder. The gunman suffered non-life threatening injuries. No students or staff were injured in the incident. Faculty and staff barricaded doors and took cover as the incident unfolded. More recently an active shooter incident occurred at the Highland Park Independence Day parade on July 4, 2022. A 22-year-old man, armed with a semi-automatic rifle, gained access to the roof Terrorism Fast Facts – Occurrences* Number of Recorded Terrorism Events Worldwide (1970 – 2019): 201,183 Number of Recorded Terrorism Events in the U.S. (1970 – 2019): 3,004 Number of Recorded Terrorism Events in Illinois (1970 – 2019): 117 * Based on data from the National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism (START) Global Terrorism Database.

The shooter evaded immediate capture and fled the scene but was apprehended later the same day. He confessed to the shooting and is being held without bail as he awaits trial. It is impossible to predict with any reasonable degree of accuracy how many terrorism events might be expected to occur in Kendall County or elsewhere in Illinois. Although targets for terrorist activity are more likely centered in larger urban areas, recruitment, training, and other support activities, such as the ones described above, have occurred in rural areas. The economic resources available to some terrorist groups coupled with the combination of global tensions, economic uncertainty and frustration towards government appear to have recently raised the frequency of attempts. Enhanced efforts by law enforcement officials and civilian vigilance for unusual activity or behavior will be needed to repel terrorists whether they are domestic or foreign in origin.

The strategy includes:  Reviewing, re-evaluating, and updating the mitigation goals. Mitigation goals describe the objective(s) or desired outcome(s) that the participants would like to accomplish in terms of hazard and loss prevention. These goals are intended to reduce or eliminate long-term vulnerabilities to natural hazards.  Evaluating the status of the existing mitigation actions and identifying a comprehensive range of jurisdiction-specific mitigation actions including those related to continued compliance with the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). Mitigation actions are projects, plans, activities, or programs that achieve at least one of the mitigation goals identified.  Analyzing the existing and new mitigation actions identified for each jurisdiction. This analysis ensures each action will reduce or eliminate future losses associated with the hazards identified in the Risk Assessment section.  Reviewing, re-evaluating, and updating the mitigation actions prioritization methodology. The prioritization methodology outlines the approach used to prioritize the implementation of each identified mitigation action.  Identifying the entity(s) responsible for implementation and administration. For each mitigation action, the entity(s) responsible for implementing and administering that action is identified as well as the timeframes for completing the actions and potential funding sources.  Conducting a preliminary cost/benefit analysis of each mitigation action. The qualitative cost/benefit analysis provides participants a general idea of which actions are likely to provide the greatest benefit based on the financial cost and staffing efforts needed. As part of the Plan update, the mitigation strategy was reviewed and revised. A detailed discussion of each aspect of the mitigation strategy and any updates made is provided below. 4.1 MITIGATION GOALS REVIEW As part of the Plan update process, the mitigation goals from the previous Plan were reviewed and re-evaluated. The Planning Committee chose to update the three original goals and add six new goals in order to address a more comprehensive range of mitigation activities and projects. The previous list of mitigation goals as well as potential updates to the list were distributed to the Committee members at the first meeting on January 24, 2023. Members were asked to review the list before the second meeting and consider whether any changes needed to be made or if additional goals should be included. At the Committee’s April 18, 2023 meeting the group discussed the previous list of goals and approved them with no changes. Figure MIT-1 lists the approved mitigation goals. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Mitigation Strategy 196 Figure MIT-1 Mitigation Goals Goal 1 Lessen the impacts of hazards on new and existing infrastructure (buildings, roads, bridges, utilities, water supplies, sanitary sewer systems, etc.) in order to promote hazard-resistant communities. Goal 2 Incorporate hazard mitigation strategies into existing and new community plans and regulations. Goal 3 Develop long-term strategies to educate residents and businesses about the hazards affecting the County and the actions they can take before a hazard event occurs to protect themselves, as well as their households, homes, and businesses in an effort to encourage hazard resilience. Goal 4 Protect the lives, health, safety, and welfare of the individuals living in the County from the dangers caused by natural and man-made hazards. Goal 5 Place a priority on protecting public services and community lifelines (i.e., safety and security; food, water, and shelter; health and medical; energy; communication; and transportation), public services, and schools. Goal 6 Preserve and protect the rivers, streams, and floodplains in the County. Goal 7 Ensure future development does not increase the vulnerability of hazard-prone areas within the County or create unintended exposures to natural and man-made hazards. Goal 8 Protect historic, cultural, and natural resources from the effects of natural and man-made hazards. Promote hazard resilience within Kendall County – the ability to prepare for, withstand, and rapidly recover from the effects of natural and man-made hazards. 4.2 EXISTING MITIGATION ACTIONS REVIEW The Plan update process included a review and evaluation of the existing hazard mitigation actions. A copy of these original actions is included in Appendices L and M. A review of the existing hazard mitigation actions revealed the following shortcomings:  Actions were not jurisdiction-specific. Most of the action were applied to every participating jurisdiction no matter their level of interest, ability to implement or relevance to their jurisdiction.  Actions did not identify specific entities responsible for implementation. This created a situation in which the participating jurisdictions did not have a clear understanding of which department within their own jurisdiction was tasked with implementing the action and therefore no sense of responsibility or ownership of the action was taken.  Actions already completed were included in the mitigation strategy. Several of the actions identified were already implemented prior to the completion and adoption of the Plan and therefore were eliminated.  Actions focused on emergency preparedness, response or recovery and not mitigation. Several of the actions identified were aimed at addressing emergency preparedness, response or recovery and not mitigation needs and therefore were eliminated. As a result of these findings, the Committee agreed to the creation of individual jurisdiction- specific mitigation action lists for each participant. In addition, those actions identified as completed or emergency preparedness, response or recovery in the original Plan, Mitigation Strategy Numbers 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 15, 18, and 24, were eliminated. The remaining existing mitigation actions were evaluated, assigned to the appropriate participating jurisdiction(s), and Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Mitigation Strategy 197 presented to the Planning Committee members for their review and evaluation at the second meeting held on April 18, 2023. Each participating jurisdiction was asked to identify those actions that were either in progress or that had been completed since the original Plan was prepared in 2011. Because jurisdictional priorities change over time, they were also given the opportunity to eliminate any action on their specific list that they did not deem currently relevant, viable, and/or practical for implementation. Figures MIT-2 through MIT-8, located at the end of this section, summarize the results of this evaluation by jurisdiction. Each action listed includes a reference number to the original mitigation action list found in Appendices L and M. None of the participants identified changes in priorities since the previous Plan was approved. Kendall Township, Lisbon CCSD #90, Lisbon-Seward Fire Protection District (FPD), Newark CHSD #18, Oswego CUSD #308, Oswego Township, Oswegoland Park District, Parkview Christian Academy, Plano CUSD #88, Sandwich Community FPD, and St. Mary Catholic School did not participate in the previous Plan update and therefore are not included in the summary. Bristol-Kendall FPD, Newark FPD, Oswego FPD, and Plattville participated in the original Plan but did not include any mitigation actions in the Plan and are also not included in the summary. While Millbrook participated in the previous Plan, they chose not to participate in the Plan update process and are not included in the summary. 4.3 NEW MITIGATION ACTION IDENTIFICATION Following the review and evaluation of the existing mitigation actions, the Committee members were asked to consult with their respective jurisdictions to identify new, jurisdiction-specific mitigation actions. Instead of focusing on all-inclusive actions covering multiple jurisdictions, participants were asked to identify mitigation actions that met the specific needs and risks associated with their jurisdiction. Representatives of Kendall County and each of the participating municipalities were also asked to identify mitigation actions that would ensure their continued compliance with the National Flood Insurance Program. The Kendall County Planning, Building & Zoning Department is responsible for the administration and enforcement of the County’s ordinances regulating the development of land in Plattville. Therefore, projects related to continued compliance with the National Flood Insurance Program for Plattville will originate with the County. he compiled lists of new mitigation actions were then reviewed to assure the appropriateness and suitability of each action. Those actions that were not deemed appropriate and/or suitable were either reworded or eliminated. 4.4 MITIGATION ACTION ANALYSIS Next, those existing mitigation actions retained, and the new mitigation actions identified were assigned to one of four broad mitigation activity categories that allowed Committee members to compare and consolidate similar actions. Figure MIT-9 identifies each mitigation activity category and provides a brief description. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Mitigation Strategy 198 Figure MIT-9 Types of Mitigation Activities Category Description Local Plans & Regulations (LP&R) Local Plans & Regulations include actions that influence the way land and buildings are being developed and built. Examples include stormwater management plans, floodplain regulations, capital improvement projects, participation in the NFIP Community Rating System, comprehensive plans, and local ordinances (i.e., building codes, etc.) Structure & Infrastructure Projects (S&IP) Structure & Infrastructure Projects include actions that protect infrastructure and structures from a hazard or remove them from a hazard area. Examples include acquisition and elevation of structures in flood prone areas, burying utility lines to critical facilities, construction of community safe rooms, install “hardening” materials (i.e., impact resistant window film, hail resistant shingles/doors, etc.) and detention/retention structures. Natural System Protection (NSP) Natural System Protection includes actions that minimize damage and losses and also preserve or restore natural systems. Examples include sediment and erosion control, stream restoration and watershed management. Education & Awareness Programs (E&A) Education & Awareness Programs include actions to inform and educate citizens, elected officials and property owners about hazards and the potential ways to mitigate them. Examples include outreach/school programs, brochures, and handout materials, becoming a StormReady community, evacuation planning and drills, and volunteer activities (i.e., culvert cleanout days, initiatives to check in on the elderly/disabled during hazard events such as storms and extreme heat events, etc.) Each mitigation action was then analyzed to determine:  the hazard or hazards being mitigated;  the general size of the population affected (i.e., small, medium, or large), the participant’s Social Vulnerability Index (SVI) ranking, status as a disadvantaged community per the Climate and Economic Justice Screening Tool (CEJST), as well as the participant’s status as an Economically Disadvantaged Rural Community (EDRC);  the goal or goals fulfilled;  whether the action would reduce the effects on new or existing buildings and infrastructure; and  whether the action would ensure continued compliance with the National Flood Insurance Program. Each mitigation action was also evaluated to determine whether it would mitigate risk to one or more of FEMA’s seven Community Lifelines. Community Lifelines are the most fundamental services in the community that, when stabilized, enable all aspects of society to function. These fundamental services enable the continuous operation of critical government and business functions essential to human health and safety or economic security. The Community Lifelines include Safety & Security; Food, Water, Shelter; Health & Medical; Energy (Power & Fuel); Communications; Transportation; and Hazardous Materials. Figure MIT-10 provides a brief description of each Community Lifeline. | Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Mitigation Strategy 199 Figure MIT-10 Community Lifelines Category Components/Subcomponents Safety & Security - Law Enforcement/Security (police stations, law enforcement, site security, correctional facilities) - Fire Service (fire stations, firefighting resources) - Search & Rescue (local search & rescue) - Government Service (emergency operation centers, essential government functions, government offices, schools, public records, historic/cultural resources) - Community Safety (flood control, other hazards, protective actions) Food, Water, Shelter - Food [commercial food distribution, commercial food supply chain, food distribution programs (e.g., food banks)] - Water [drinking water utilities (intake, treatment, storage & distribution), wastewater systems, commercial water supply chain]; - Shelter [housing (e.g., homes, shelters), commercial facilities (e.g., hotels)]; - Agriculture (animals & agriculture) Health & Medical - Medical Care (hospitals, dialysis, pharmacies, long-term care facilities, VA health system, veterinary services, home care) - Patient Movement (emergency medical services) - Fatality Management (mortuary and post-mortuary services) - Public Health (epidemiological surveillance, laboratory, clinical guidance, assessment/interventions/treatments, human services, behavioral health) - Medical Supply Chain [blood/blood products, manufacturing (e.g., pharmaceutical, device, medical gases), distribution, critical clinical research, sterilization, raw materials] Energy - Power Grid (generation systems, transmission systems, distribution systems) - Fuel [refineries/fuel processing, fuel storage, pipelines, fuel distribution (e.g., gas stations, fuel points), off-shore oil platforms] Communications - Infrastructure [wireless, cable systems and wireline, broadcast (e.g., TV and radio), satellite, data centers/internet] - Alerts, Warnings, & Messages (local alert/warning ability, access to IPAWS, NAWAS terminals) - 911 & Dispatch (public safety answering points, dispatch) - Responder Communications (LMR networks) - Finance (banking services, electronic payment processing) Transportation - Highway/Roadway/Motor Vehicle (roads, bridges) - Mass Transit (bus, rail, ferry) - Railway (freight, passenger) - Aviation [commercial (e.g., cargo/passenger), general, military] - Maritime (waterways, ports and port facilities) Hazardous Materials - Facilities [oil/hazmat facilities (e.g., chemical, nuclear), oil/hazmat/toxic incidents from facilities] - Hazmat, Pollutants, Contaminants (oil/hazmat/toxic incidents from non-fixed facilities, radiological or nuclear incidents) 4.5 MITIGATION ACTION PRIORITIZATION METHODOLOGY & COST/BENEFIT ANALYSIS REVIEW The methodology applied to prioritize mitigation actions in the previous Plan was reviewed by the Committee as part of the Plan update process. The original prioritization methodology was based Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Mitigation Strategy 200 on the STAPLE+E planning factors (Social, Technical, Administrative, Political, Legal, Economic, and Environmental) and applied a rating of high, medium, low, or ongoing to each mitigation action. Taking into account the number and types of factors assessed and the complexity associated with the STAPLE+E analysis, the Planning Committee decided to replace the original prioritization methodology with one focused on key factors such as frequency of the hazard, degree of mitigation, cost/benefit utilization, and risk reduction to community lifelines. This updated prioritization methodology was presented to the Planning Committee members at the third meeting held on July 11, 2023. The group reviewed and discussed the methodology and chose to approve it with no changes. Figure MIT-11 identifies and describes the four-tiered prioritization methodology adopted by the Planning Committee. This methodology identifies which projects and activities maximize benefits and have a greater likelihood of reducing the long-term vulnerabilities associated with the most frequently-occurring natural hazards. Figure MIT-11 Mitigation Action Prioritization Methodology P1 High Priority P2 Significant Priority P3 Moderate Priority P4 Important - Mitigates risk to the most frequently occurring hazards (i.e., severe storms, floods, severe winter storms, extreme cold, excessive heat) - Action has the potential to virtually eliminate or significantly reduce hazard impacts - Mitigates risk to at least one community lifeline - Benefits exceed cost - Action meets multiple plan goals and/or projects life & health - Mitigates risk to the most frequently occurring hazards (i.e., severe storms, floods, severe winter storms, extreme cold, excessive heat) - Action has the potential to reduce hazard impacts - May mitigate risk to a community lifeline - Benefit is equal to or exceeds cost - Action meets at least one plan goal - Mitigates risk to the less frequently occurring hazards (i.e., tornadoes, drought, earthquakes, man-made hazards) - Action has the potential to virtually eliminate or significantly reduce hazard impacts - Mitigates risk to at least one community lifeline - Benefits exceed cost - Action meets multiple plan goals and/or projects life & health - Mitigates risk to the less frequently occurring hazards (i.e., tornadoes, drought, earthquakes, man-made hazards) - Action has the potential to reduce hazard impacts - May mitigate risk to a community lifeline - Benefit is equal to or exceeds cost - Action meets at least one plan goal While prioritizing the actions is useful and provides participants with additional information, it is important to keep in mind that implementing any the mitigation actions is desirable regardless of which prioritization category an action falls under. In addition to weighing the cost of an action versus the benefits the action will produce as part of the prioritization methodology, a preliminary qualitative cost/benefit analysis was conducted on each mitigation action to demonstrate its monetary and non-monetary benefits and provide additional information that can be considered in each participant’s decision-making process. The Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Mitigation Strategy 201 costs and benefits were analyzed in terms of the general overall cost to complete an action as well as the staffing efforted needed and the action’s likelihood of virtually eliminating or significantly reducing the risk associated with a specific hazard. The general descriptors of high, medium, and low were used. These terms are not meant to translate into a specific dollar amount, but rather to provide a relative comparison between the actions identified by each jurisdiction. This analysis is only meant to give the participants a starting point to compare which actions are likely to provide the greatest benefit. It was repeatedly communicated to the Planning Committee members that when a grant application is submitted to IEMA-OHS/FEMA for a specific action, a detailed cost/benefit analysis will be required to receive funding. 4.6 MITIGATION ACTION IMPLEMENTATION & ADMINISTRATION Finally, each participating jurisdiction was asked to identify how the mitigation actions will be implemented and administered. This included:  identifying the party or parties responsible for oversight and administration;  determining what funding source(s) are available or will be pursued; and  describing the time frame for completion. Oversight & Administration It is important to keep in mind that some of the participating jurisdictions have limited capabilities related to organization and staffing for oversight and administration of the identified mitigation actions. Three of the seven participating municipalities are small in size, with populations of less than 1,250 individuals. In most cases these jurisdictions have minimal staff. Their organizational structure is such that most have very few offices and/or departments, generally limited to public works and water/sewer. Those in charge of the offices/departments often lack the technical expertise needed to individually oversee and administer the identified mitigation actions. As a result, most of the participating jurisdictions identified their governing body (i.e., village board, city council or board of trustees) as the entity responsible for oversight and administration simply because it is the only practical option given their organizational constraints. Other participants felt that oversight and administration fell under the purview of the entity’s governing body (board/council) and not individual departments. Funding Sources While the Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning has the ability to assist with grant writing service to the participants, many do not have staff with grant writing capabilities. As a result, assistance was needed in identifying possible funding sources for the identified mitigation actions. The consultant provided written information to the participants about FEMA and non-FEMA funding opportunities that have been used previously to finance mitigation actions. In addition, funding information was discussed with participants during Committee meetings and in one-on- one contacts so that an appropriate funding source could be identified for each mitigation action. A handout was prepared and distributed that provided specific information on the non-FEMA grant sources available including the grant name, the government agency responsible for administering the grant, grant ceiling, contact person and application period among other key points. Specific grants from the following agencies were identified: U.S. Department of Agricultural – Rural Development (USDA – RD), Illinois Department of Agriculture (IDOA), Illinois Department of Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan March 2024 Mitigation Strategy 202 Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO), Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA), Illinois Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) and Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT). The funding source identified for each action is the most likely source to be pursued; however, if grant funding is unavailable through the most likely or other suggested sources, then implementation of medium and large-scale projects and activities is unlikely due to the budgetary constraints experienced by most, if not all, of the participants due to their size, projected population growth and limited revenue streams. It is important to remember that the population for the entire County is approximately 131,000 individuals, with approximately 32,700 living in unincorporated Kendall County. Three of the seven participating municipalities are smaller in size, with populations of less than 1,250 individuals. Some of the jurisdictions struggle to maintain and provide the most critical of services to their residents. Additional funding is necessary if implementation is to be achieved. Time Frame for Completion The time frame for completion identified for each action is the timespan in which participants would like to see the action successfully completed. In most cases, however, the time frame identified is dependent on obtaining the necessary funding. As a result, a time range has been identified for many of the mitigation actions to allow for unpredictability in securing funds. 4.7 RESULTS OF MITIGATION STRATEGY Figures MIT-12 through MIT-33, located at the end of this section, summarize the results of the mitigation strategy. The mitigation actions are arranged alphabetically by participating jurisdiction following the County and include both existing and new actions.

These requirements include:  establishing the method and schedule for monitoring, evaluating and updating the Plan;  describing how the requirements of the Plan will be incorporated into existing planning mechanisms; and  detailing how continued public input will be obtained during the plan maintenance process. These requirements ensure that the Plan remains an effective and relevant document. The following provides a detailed discussion of each requirement. 5.1 MONITORING, EVALUATING & UPDATING THE PLAN Outlined below is a method and schedule for monitoring, evaluating, and updating the Plan. This method allows the participating jurisdictions to make necessary changes and updates to the Plan and track the implementation and results of the mitigation actions that have been undertaken. 5.1.1 Monitoring and Evaluating the Plan The Plan update will be monitored and evaluated by a Plan Maintenance Subcommittee on an annual basis. The Subcommittee will be composed of the participating jurisdictions who sought Plan approval and other key members of the Committee. The Kendall County Emergency Management Agency (EMA) will chair the Plan Maintenance Subcommittee. The Kendall County EMA will assume lead responsibility for monitoring and tracking the implementation status of the mitigation actions identified in the Plan update. It will be the responsibility of each Plan participant to provide the Kendall County EMA with an annual progress report on the status of their existing mitigation actions and identify whether any actions need to be modified. New mitigation actions may be added to the Plan during the annual monitoring and evaluation period or at any time during the plan maintenance cycle by contacting the Kendall County EMA and providing the appropriate information. The Kendall County EMA together with the Plan Maintenance Subcommittee will also evaluate the Plan update on an annual basis to determine the effectiveness of the Plan at achieving its stated purpose and goals. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of the Plan update, the Subcommittee will review the mitigation actions that have been successfully implemented and determine whether the action achieved the identified goal(s) and had the intended result (i.e., losses were avoided, or the vulnerability of hazard-prone areas were reduced). Monitoring & Evaluating A Plan Maintenance Subcommittee will be formed to monitor and evaluate the Plan update. The Plan update will be monitored and evaluated on an annual basis. Each Plan participant will be responsible for providing an annual progress report on the status of their mitigation actions. Plan participants can add new mitigation actions to the Plan during the annual monitoring phase or by contacting the Kendall County EMA. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional All Hazards Mitigation Plan March 2024 Plan Maintenance 271 The Subcommittee will also ask each Plan participant to identify any significant changes in development or priorities that have occurred within the previous 12 months; whether any new plans, policies, regulations, or reports have been adopted; and if any hazard-related damages to the jurisdiction’s assets have been sustained (i.e., people, critical facilities, infrastructure, and systems, and/or natural, historic, and cultural resources). In order to streamline the plan maintenance process, the Kendall County EMA will provide each Plan participant with a Plan Maintenance Checklist along with the necessary forms to complete and return. Appendix N contains a copy of Checklist and associated forms. The Kendall County EMA will then prepare a progress report detailing the results of the annual Plan monitoring and evaluation period and provide copies to the Subcommittee. The annual progress report will include:  information on any hazard-related damages sustained by assets within the planning area during the previous year.  implementation status of the mitigation actions identified in the Mitigation Strategy.  identification of any new mitigation actions proposed by the Plan participants.  information on changes in development, priorities, and planning and regulatory capabilities for the Plan participants.  identification of how information will be disseminated to stakeholders and constituents on the Plan and its progress in effort to seek continued public participation. If any existing mitigation actions are modified or new mitigation actions are identified for the Plan participants, then Section 4.7 of the Mitigation Strategy will be updated, and the Plan update resubmitted to the Illinois Emergency Management Agency (IEMA) and FEMA for reference. On an as needed basis the Kendall County EMA, in consultation with the Subcommittee, will evaluate requests from non-participating jurisdictions to “join” the Plan before the five-year update. Consideration will be given if certain conditions are met as outlined in Appendix D of FEMA’s Local Mitigation Planning Policy Guide. 5.1.2 Updating the Plan The Plan must be updated within five years of the of the Plan approval date indicated on the signed FEMA final approval letter. (This date can be found in Section 6, Plan Adoption.) This ensures that all the participating jurisdictions will remain eligible to receive federal grant funds to implement those mitigation actions identified in this Plan. The Kendall County EMA, with assistance from the Plan Maintenance Subcommittee, will be responsible for updating the Plan. The update will Updating the Plan The Kendall County EMA, with assistance from the Plan Maintenance Subcommittee, will be responsible for updating the Plan. The Plan must be updated within 5 years of the date of the final approval letter provided by FEMA. Once the Plan update has received FEMA/IEMA approval, each participating jurisdiction must adopt the Plan to remain eligible to receive federal mitigation funds. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional All Hazards Mitigation Plan March 2024 Plan Maintenance 272 incorporate all of the information gathered during the monitoring and evaluation phase and will also include:  a review of the Mitigation Strategy, including potential updates to the mitigation goals and prioritization methodology;  an evaluation of whether additional natural hazards need to be addressed or included in the Plan;  a review of new hazard data that may affect the Risk Assessment Section;  identification of any changes in priorities within each participating jurisdiction; and  identification of any changes in development that have occurred in hazard prone areas that would increase or decrease the participating jurisdictions’ vulnerability. A Planning Committee will be reformed to update the Plan and a public involvement strategy similar to the one employed for this Plan update will be implemented to ensure that the public and stakeholders have ample opportunities to become engaged and provide input during the development of the Plan update. In addition, any jurisdictions that did not take part in the previous Plan update may do so at this time. It will be the responsibility of these jurisdictions to provide all of the information needed to be integrated into the Plan update. A public forum will be held to present the Plan update to the public for review and comment. The comments received at the public forum will be reviewed and incorporated into the Plan update. The Plan update will then be submitted to IEMA and FEMA for review and approval. Once the Plan update has received state and federal approval, FEMA requires that each of the participating jurisdictions adopt the Plan to remain eligible to receive federal funds to implement identified mitigation actions. 5.2 INCORPORATING THE MITIGATION STRATEGY INTO EXISTING PLANNING MECHANISMS As part of the planning process, the Committee identified each participating jurisdiction’s existing capabilities (i.e., existing authorities, policies, programs, technical information, etc.) and resources available to support or accomplish mitigation and reduce long-term vulnerability. Figures PP-3 through PP-14 identify the existing authorities, policies, programs, technical information, and resources available by capability type by jurisdiction. It will be the responsibility of each participating jurisdiction to incorporate, where applicable, the mitigation strategy and other information contained in the Plan update into the planning mechanisms identified for their jurisdiction. Adoption of this Plan update will trigger each participating jurisdiction to review and, where appropriate, integrate the Plan into other available planning mechanisms. The Plan Maintenance Subcommittee’s annual review will help maintain awareness of the Plan among the participating jurisdictions and encourage active integration of the Plan into their day-to-day operations and planning mechanisms. Any time a mitigation action is slated for implementation by a participating jurisdiction, it will be integrated into their capital improvement plan/budget. Several of the participating jurisdictions, including Kendall County, Montgomery, Oswego, Plano, Yorkville, have identified the need to adopt, review, and/or strengthen current policies or programs Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional All Hazards Mitigation Plan March 2024 Plan Maintenance 273 in the near future. Several of the participating jurisdictions, Lisbon, Plattville, Kendall Township, Parkview Christian Academy, and St. Mary Catholic School, have limited capabilities to integrate the mitigation strategy and other information contained in the Plan update into existing planning mechanisms. These jurisdictions are smaller in size and may not have the financial resources or trained personnel to develop planning mechanisms such as comprehensive plans or building and zoning ordinances. 5.3 CONTINUED PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT The County and participating jurisdictions understand the importance of continued public involvement and will seek public input on the Plan update throughout the plan maintenance cycle. Any meetings held by the Plan Maintenance Subcommittee will be noticed and open to the public. Stakeholders and the public will be encouraged to participate and provide feedback. Following distribution of the annual progress report, each participating jurisdiction will be encouraged to discuss the findings at their monthly board/council meetings to help maintain awareness of the Plan and encourage integration of the Plan in day-to-day operations. Participating jurisdictions will also be encouraged to make the annual progress report available via social media and on their websites, as available, and at their offices. As the lead organization responsible for maintaining the Plan update, the Kendall County EMA will also periodically post mitigation-related topics to social media including where to access the approved Plan, information on the hazards that have the potential to impact the County, interesting facts about each hazard, and no or low-cost actions that residents can take to reduce their risk from natural hazards. A copy of the approved Plan will be maintained and available for review at the Kendall County EMA Office and on the County’s website. Individuals will be encouraged to provide feedback and submit comments for the next Plan update to the Kendall County EMA Office. The comments received will be compiled and included in the annual progress report and considered for incorporation into the next Plan update. Separate Committee meetings and a public forum will be held prior to the next Plan update submittal to ensure that the public and stakeholders have ample opportunity to become engaged, provide input during the development of the Plan update, and comment on the proposed revision to the Plan update. Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional All Hazards Mitigation Plan March 2024 Plan Adoption 274 6.0 PLAN ADOPTION The final step in the planning process is the adoption of the approved Plan update by each participating jurisdiction. Each jurisdiction must formally adopt the Plan to become or remain eligible for federal grant funds to implement mitigation actions identified in this Plan. 6.1 PLAN ADOPTION PROCESS Before the Plan update could be adopted by the participating jurisdictions, it was made available for public review and comment through a public forum and comment period. Comments received were incorporated into the Plan update and the Plan was then submitted to the Illinois Emergency Management Agency and Office of Homeland Security (IEMA-OHS) and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for their review and approval. Upon receipt of the Approval Pending Adoption (APA) letter from FEMA, the Plan update was presented to the County and participating jurisdictions for adoption. Each participating jurisdiction was required to formally adopt the Plan to become or remain eligible to receive federal grant funds to implement the mitigation actions identified in this Plan. Any jurisdiction that chose not to adopt the Plan update did not affect the eligibility of those who did. Figure PA-1 identifies the participating jurisdictions and the date each formally adopted the Plan update. Signed copies of the adoption resolutions are located in Appendix O. FEMA signed the final approval letter on (Date) which began the five-year approval period and set the expiration date of (Date) for the Plan.

Welcome and Introductions Roger Bonuchi, Director of the Kendall County Emergency Management Agency, welcomed attendees. He indicated that the purpose of this Committee is to update the Kendall County All Hazards Mitigation Plan. Handout materials were distributed to each member, including a Natural Hazard Events Questionnaire. A link to a citizen questionnaire was provided to potential members via email as well. The questionnaires will help gauge residents and committee member understanding of the natural hazards that impact the County and also identifies communication preferences. Andrea Bostwick, American Environmental Corporation (AEC) began the meeting by providing background information on the planning grant and the planning process. Kendall County EMA applied for and received a planning grant from FEMA to update the County’s hazard mitigation plan. This grant is administered through the Illinois Emergency Management Agency (IEMA) and pays for 90% of the planning cost. The remaining 10% Appendix B 2 will be met through in-kind services. The goal of the grant is to obtain a FEMA-approved hazard mitigation plan. The process generally takes about 16 to 18 months from start to finish. What is Mitigation? Andrea explained that for the purpose of this process, mitigation is any sustained action that reduces the long-term risk to people and property from natural and man-made hazards and their impacts. Sustained actions can include projects and activities such as building a community safe room or establishing warming and cooling centers. Mitigation is one of the phases of emergency management and is an important component in creating hazard-resistant communities. What is an All Hazards Mitigation Plan? Andrea then explained that an All Hazards Mitigation Plan details the natural and man- made hazard events that have previously impacted the County and identifies activities and projects that reduce the risk to people and property from these hazards before an event occurs. A hazard mitigation plan is different from the County’s Emergency Operations Plan/ Emergency Response Plan (EOP/ERP) because it identifies actions that can be taken before a disaster strikes whereas the EOP/ERP identifies how the County will respond during and immediately after an event occurs. The natural and man-made hazards that will be included in the Plan are severe summer storms (including thunderstorms with damaging winds, hail, lightning, and heavy rain events); severe winter storms (including ice and snowstorms); floods (both flash flood and riverine floods); tornadoes; excessive heat; extreme cold; drought; and earthquakes; transportation, generation, and storage of hazardous substances; hazardous materials incidents; waste disposal; and remediation activities. Andrea indicated that the Committee can also include additional hazards it feels have a significant impact on the County and then discussed dam failures. AEC will send out a survey in the next week to poll the Committee on whether to include this hazard in the Plan update. Why Update an All Hazards Mitigation Plan? Since the early 1990s damages caused by weather extremes have risen substantially. In 2021 the U.S. experienced $141 billion in severe storm damages from twenty (20) severe weather and natural hazard events. The losses experienced in 2021 were the 3rd highest only behind 2017 (Harvey, Irma, Maria, and California Wildfires) and 2005 (Katrina, Rita, & Wilma). In the last decade, the U.S. has experienced the top three years with the highest total number of billion-dollar events and two of the top three years with the highest total losses ever recorded. Consequently, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) continues to encourage counties throughout the U.S. to prepare and develop hazard mitigation plans because what they’ve found is that for every dollar spent on mitigation, $6 dollars can be reaped in savings. Appendix B 3 Updating this plan provides several major benefits: 1. Access to federal mitigation assistance funds. Specific projects and activities will be developed and updated through the planning process to help each participating jurisdiction reduce damages. By including these actions in this Plan, the participating jurisdictions will become eligible to receive state and federal funds to implement the actions. 2. Increased awareness of the impacts associated with natural hazards. Verifiable information about the natural hazards that occur in Kendall County will be gathered to help participants in municipal and county meetings make decisions about how to better protect citizens and property from storm damages. The Planning Process The goal of the Committee meetings is to update the Plan to meet state and federal requirements so that it can be approved by the IEMA and FEMA. The Planning Committee is an integral part of the planning process and ensures that the Plan is tailored to the needs of the County and participating jurisdictions. A five meeting process has been developed to achieve this goal. Specific activities for the Committee meetings include: 1st Committee meeting Orientation to the Planning Process Required Information Needed to Participate 2nd Committee meeting Discuss the Risk Assessment Approve Mission Statement & Goals Participants Return Required Forms Begin discussing Mitigation Projects and Activities 3rd Committee meeting Discuss and approve Mitigation Strategy Committee returns draft list of Mitigation Projects and Activities 4th Committee meeting Finish discussing Mitigation Projects and Activities Committee discusses approval/adoption of the Plan 5th Committee meeting Present the Plan for public review (Public Forum) Committee helps answer questions from the public Jurisdictions who wish to be part of the Plan must meet certain participation requirements that include:  Participating in the planning meetings and public forum;  Completing required forms;  Coordinating with their constituents and the public; and  Adopting the Plan once it’s completed. Information Needed from the Committee As part of the Plan’s update, Ken Runkle of AEC indicated that there is information that will be needed from each participating jurisdiction. The information provided will be used Appendix B 4 to meet FEMA plan requirements. He then talked about each of the forms that must be completed at the beginning of the planning process. These Include: Critical Facilities. Completed lists of Critical Facilities will be used to identify facilities vulnerable to natural hazards and will be provided to IEMA and FEMA as a separate supplement. Copies of the Plan made available to the public will not include these lists for security reasons. Capability Assessment: Each jurisdiction has a unique set of capabilities and resources available to accomplish hazard mitigation and reduce long-term vulnerabilities to hazard events. As part of the update of the plan, the existing capabilities of each jurisdiction need to be identified and described. Shelter Surveys. Identifies locations designated as severe weather shelters within each jurisdiction including warming centers, cooling centers and community safe rooms. Drinking Water Supply Worksheet: Information on the drinking water supplies that serve the participating communities needs to be identified to assist in assessing drought vulnerability. Andrea and Ken passed out the forms and fielded questions. Ken asked participants to complete the forms and return them by the next meeting if possible and to let him know if they had any questions. Severe Weather Events Andrea told the Committee that, while AEC will review multiple data sources, including NOAA, NWS, and state and federal databases, these sources don’t always include every event nor do they always include damage information, especially dollar amounts. In many cases, individuals at the local level are our best resource for this kind of information. She then asked Committee members to share their memories of hazardous events that have occurred in the County including any damages to critical infrastructure and facilities. Hazard events related include:  A tornado on August 10, 2020 damaged private property  A storm with hail in 2019 caused roof damage in Oswego  Rain events in 1996 included 19 inches of rain that caused widespread flooding  1997 drought event  2011 blizzard with 34 inches of snow  Extremely low temperatures in 2019 that caused water service lines to freeze in Oswego  2012 drought  Flooding in April 2013  Very cold winter in 1984  Severe winter storms in 1978 and 1979  A microburst in 1990 caused roof damage to township buildings  A tornado in Plainfield in 1990 Appendix B 5 She asked participants to identify any hazard events that have impacted their jurisdiction by completing the form titled, “Hazard Event Questionnaire”. The information provided will help supplement the information included in the risk assessment. She also asked Committee members to please provide any storm damage photos they would be willing to share for inclusion in the Plan. Community Participation Ken stressed the importance of attending each committee meeting and indicated that member participation helps the County meet its 10% match for this grant in addition to assuring that member jurisdictions are eligible for IEMA/FEMA funds. He indicated that tag-teaming and designating substitute representatives is permissible when other obligations arise. Ken pointed out that a designated substitute representative does not have be an official or employee of the jurisdiction. Ken requested that each jurisdiction consider sharing meeting information with their boards, councils, etc. at regularly scheduled meetings and consider posting the press release or adding a calendar item to their web pages. He also asked jurisdictions who are on Facebook to consider posting about the Plan on their pages as well. Ken indicated that another opportunity to include the public in the process is to post the link to the Citizen Questionnaire on their web pages or Facebook pages. The more individuals who complete the survey, the better our understanding will be of the public’s perception of the hazards that impact the County. Finally, he asked the participants to consider posting or making available at their offices the “Frequently Asked Questions” document in their meeting packet. It provides a quick summary of what the Plan is and why it’s important to participate. Mission Statement & Goals Copies of a draft mission statement and goals were distributed in the meeting packet. Committee Members were asked to review these prior to the next meeting. The mitigation goals describe the objectives or end results the Committee would like to accomplish in terms of hazard and loss reduction/prevention. Every project included in the Plan should be aimed at one or more of the goals identified by this Committee. Specific goals related to each jurisdiction can be added to this list as well. What Happens Next? The risk assessment will be the main topic of the next committee meeting. The second meeting of the Committee was scheduled for: Tuesday, April 18, 2023 Location TBD 3 P.M. Andrea asked Committee members to please review the “Tasks to be Completed” handout before the next meeting and indicated that AECs contact information could be found on the last page of the meeting handout if any questions come up. With no further questions the meeting was adjourned, and Roger Bonuchi closed by thanking attendees for their participation.

Welcome and Introductions On behalf of the Kendall County Emergency Management Agency, Andrea Bostwick- Campbell and Callie Smith welcomed attendees. Handout materials were distributed to each member in attendance. Andrea provided a brief recap to reorient Committee Members as to what was accomplished at the previous meeting. Before beginning the risk assessment presentation, Andrea asked the participating jurisdictions to submit their completed “Critical Facilities”, “Capability Assessments”, “Shelter Surveys” and “Drinking Water Worksheets” if they haven’t done so already. Risk Assessment Andrea began the presentation by noting that there have been seven federally-declared disasters in Kendall County since 1972. A total of 509 verified natural hazard events have been documented over the last 20 to 70 years. There have been 273 events identified Appendix B 2 since 2010. A minimum of $7.8 million in damages have resulted from just 34 of these documented natural hazard events. The damage amounts are actually much higher based on several facts: 1.) damage descriptions for many floods, tornadoes and severe storm events did not include dollar amounts; 2.) damages to roads from heat and freeze/thaws conditions were not included; and 3.) crop damage figures were unavailable for a majority of the events. The frequency, magnitude, and property damages for each category of natural hazard were described. Severe Storms Severe storms are the most frequently occurring natural hazard in Kendall County with 156 events verified since 1996. Half of those events occurred since 2010. One of the 7 federal disaster declarations for Kendall County included severe storms (1996). At least $805,500 in damages have resulted from 24 events, which is just over 10% of all the property damage recorded in the County. Only one injury was recorded as the direct result of a thunderstorm event. This figure does not include injuries or fatalities caused by hazardous driving conditions, such as wet pavement. Between 2017 and 2021, 4 fatalities and 393 injuries were attributed to hazardous driving conditions created by wet pavement in Kendall County alone. The highest recorded wind speed in the County, not associated with a tornado, is 80 knots (92 mph) recorded south of Oswego on June 29, 2012 (near Whitetail Ridge Golf Club). The largest hail recorded in the County was 4.75 inches in diameter (larger than a softball), observed on June 10, 2015 in Minooka. Severe Winter Storms While the original Plan only documented 27 severe winter storms and 1 extreme cold event between 1994 and 2009, a review of additional resources allowed data gaps to be filled, which led to the identification of at least 76 verified events involving severe winter storms (snow and/or ice) since 1994 and 88 extreme cold events since 1995. Since 2010, there have been 38 snow/ice events and 51 extreme cold events in Kendall County. One of the seven federal disaster declarations for the County is related to severe winter storms (the 1990 ice storm). No damages or emergency protective measures were reported as the result of any of these events, though we know that funds were allocated for measures such as snow removal for larger storms. Between 2017 and 2021, 186 injuries were attributed to crashes involving ice and snow-covered roadways. The record maximum 24-hour snowfall in the County is 18.1 inches, which occurred at the Newark COOP Station on February 1st and 2nd in 2011. Since there are no National Weather Service COOP stations in Kendall County that kept recent temperature records, data from Kane and Grundy counties was used to estimate the coldest regional temperature. The Morris COOP Station recorded a temperature of - 26°F on December 28, 1924. The Aurora COOP Station recorded its coldest temperature on January 20, 1985, also a reading of -26°F. Appendix B 3 Floods The original Plan only identified 17 flood events between 1996 and 2008, but gaps in historical data were reviewed to document at least 84 verified flood events in the County, with 35 riverine/shallow flood events since 1997 and 49 flash flood events since 1996. Five of the seven federal disaster declarations for Kendall County are related to flooding (’72, ’74, ’96, ’08, ’13). At least $4.1 million in damages has resulted from three general flood events, which represents over 50% of all the property damage recorded in the County. No injuries or fatalities were reported as a result of any of the recorded events. Excessive Heat The original Plan did not include excessive heat, so in adding it to this Plan additional resources were reviewed to fill historic data gaps which led to the identification of 88 recorded excessive heat events reported in Kendall County since 1995. No injuries or fatalities were recorded as the result of these events. The hottest regional temperature recorded occurred on July 14, 1936; this was measured as 111°F in Aurora and 109°F in Morris. The years of 1936 and 1954 set records across the state for high temperatures, most of which still stand today. Tornadoes Since 1950, 21 tornadoes have been verified in Kendall County, with 6 occurring since 2010. Approximately $2.9 million in property damages has resulted from 6 of these tornadoes, which is over 30% of all the property damage recorded in the County. No injuries or fatalities were recorded as a result of these events. The highest recorded F-Scale rating for a tornado in the County was an F5, which occurred on August 28, 1990. The longest tornado was an EF2 that occurred on August 15, 1958 that traveled 18.6 miles across the County as part of its total 74.5 mile path. The widest tornado recorded in the County was the F5 from August 28, 1990, which was 600 yards wide. Drought Like excessive heat, the original Plan did not include drought. In adding it to this Plan, resources were reviewed which led to the identification of four major droughts during the last four decades – 1983, 1988, 2005, and 2012. There has been at least one drought per decade with the exception of the 1990s when no substantial droughts were recorded. In 2005, the County was designated a Primary Natural Disaster Area due to drought conditions. Following each declared drought, crop yield reductions were generally experienced, some substantial. Corn yield reductions were most severe for the 2005 drought when there was a 39.6% reduction in corn yields. Soybean yields were most severely reduced during the 1988 drought, when they fell by about 26.1%. Year Corn Soybeans 1983 34.3% 5.1% 1988 38.1% 26.1% 2005 39.6% 21.2% 2012 38.1% 20.0% Appendix B 4 Earthquakes In the previous 200 years, only one earthquake has originated in Kendall County, an estimated 4.0 to 4.9 magnitude quake with an intensity of VI that originated northwest of Lisbon on January 2, 1912. No records were found that recorded any damages, injuries, or fatalities. Additionally, six earthquakes have originated in the adjacent counties of LaSalle, Kane, and Will. There is one known fault zone in the County, the Sandwich Fault Zone which is approximately 85 miles long and stretches from Ogle County to Will County in a northwest-southeast direction. Man-Made Hazards Risk Assessment While the focus of this planning effort is directed at natural hazards, FEMA allows a small portion of the planning process to be devoted to an overview of selected man-made hazards. Although this overview does not have the same depth as the assessment of natural hazards, it provides useful information to place various man-made hazards in perspective. The man-made hazard risk assessment focused on the following categories of: - generation, storage/handling, and transportation of hazardous substances; - waste disposal; - hazardous materials (hazmat) incidents; and - waste remediation. Hazardous substances broadly include flammable, explosive, biological, chemical, or physical material that has the potential to harm public health or the environment. For the purposes of this Plan, the term includes both hazardous product and hazardous waste. Generation, Storage/Handling, & Transportation In 2021, there were 2 facilities in Kendall County that generated reportable quantities of hazardous substances according to the USEPA. Based on records obtained from IEMA’s Tier II database, there were 41 stationary facilities within Kendall County that stored and/or handled hazardous substances. Thirteen of these facilities stored and/or handled chemicals identified as “Extremely Hazardous Substances”. Waste Disposal There are no active commercial solid (household) waste landfills operating in Kendall County, no facilities within the County permitted to handle Potentially Infectious Medical Waste, and no commercial off-site hazardous waste treatment or disposal facilities. Hazardous Materials (Hazmat) Incidents A hazardous materials (hazmat) incident refers to any accident involving the release of hazardous substances. Incidents can take place at fixed facilities or as they are being transported. Between 2013 and 2022 there were 30 hazmat incidents reported to IEMA & ICC in Kendall County. Of the 30 incidents, 18 occurred at fixed facilities, while 12 Appendix B 5 occurred during transport. Of the 12 transportation hazmat incidents, 11 were roadway incidents and one was a rail incident. Waste Remediation Waste remediation in Illinois is primarily conducted through three programs: the federal Superfund Program (for sites posing the largest threat to public health and the environment), the Illinois Site Remediation Program (SRP), and the Illinois Leaking Underground Storage Tank (LUST) Program. Superfund: There are no active Superfund sites in Kendall County. Illinois SRP: There are 16 SRP sites located Kendall County. Twelve of the sites have received “No Further Remediation” (NFR) or 4(y) letters. Illinois LUST: There are 79 LUST sites located in Kendall County. Approximately 84% of these sites have received NFR, Non-Lust Determination or Section 4(y) letters or remediation is virtually complete. Risk Priority Index Exercise Following the risk assessment, Andrea led the Committee through a Risk Priority Index (RPI) exercise. The RPI is a quantitative means of providing guidance for ranking the hazards that have the potential to impact the County. This ranking can assist participants in determining which hazards present the highest risks and therefore which ones to focus on when formulating mitigation projects and activities. Each hazard is scored on three categories: frequency, impacts on life and health and impacts on property and infrastructure based on a scoring system provided. Andrea walked the Committee through the scoring system using excessive heat as an example and then provided time for the Committee to fill out the PRI form during the meeting. The results will be compiled, and the findings will be presented at the next meeting. Mission Statement & Goals Andrea asked Committee members to review the draft mission statement and updated mitigation goals provided in the meeting materials. Both of these are required elements of the Plan. As part of the Plan update process, both items need to be reviewed and re- evaluated. The mission statement was reviewed, and it was determined that no revisions to the wording were needed. Next, Andrea discussed the mitigation goals, which are intended to reduce long-term vulnerabilities to natural and man-made hazards. Each project included in the updated Plan should be aimed at one or more of the goals developed by the Committee. The updated goals were reviewed, and no revisions were made to the wording. The mission statement and goals will be added to the Plan update. Mitigation Andrea explained that mitigation actions include activities and projects that reduce the long-term risk to people and property from the natural and man-made hazards discussed in the risk assessment. Appendix B 6 To help the jurisdictions think about and assemble their lists, Andrea provided several examples and referred participants to a 2-page list of potential mitigation projects included in the handout material along with mitigation project lists from other jurisdictions. These examples can be used to help Committee members when they prepare their list. Finally, Andrea provided excerpts from a FEMA publication on mitigation ideas as another resource. Status of Existing Projects Callie distributed “Status of Existing Mitigation Actions” forms to each of the previously participating jurisdictions detailing the mitigation projects and activities included in the original Plan. Andrea explained that as part of the update process the status of these projects needs to be determined. She described how the form should be completed so that this information can be included in the Plan update. New Projects The form titled “Hazard Mitigation Projects” was distributed by Callie, and Andrea indicated this form should be used to submit new projects and activities for the Plan. She told the Committee that individual mitigation project lists will be developed for each participating jurisdiction and that this is a list of projects each jurisdiction would like to see accomplished if funding becomes available. FEMA is trying to stimulate the implementation of mitigation projects and activities to reduce the extraordinary amount of money being expended on hazard event damages. The projects and activities included in the Plan should be mitigation-related, not emergency preparedness, response, recovery, or maintenance. Mitigation projects can include studies, regulatory activities, structural and infrastructure projects, and information/education activities. She provided advice for completing the mitigation project list including providing a detailed description of the project, the jurisdiction responsible for the project and the time frame to complete the project. Committee members were encouraged to contact Andrea, Ken, or Callie if questions arise before they return to the next Committee meeting. What Happens Next? The vulnerability assessment and mitigation project prioritization methodology will be the main topics of the next Committee meeting. The third meeting of the Committee was scheduled for: Tuesday, July 11th, 2023 3:00 p.m. Oswego Fire Protection District Station 1 3511 Woolley Road, Oswego Public Comment With no questions or comments, Andrea adjourned the meeting.

Welcome Roger Bonuchi, Director of the Kendall County Emergency Management Agency, welcomed attendees. He turned the meeting over to Andrea Bostwick, American Environmental Corporation (AEC), who opened the meeting. Handout materials were distributed to each member in attendance. Andrea provided a brief recap to reorient Committee Members as to what has been accomplished. Before beginning the vulnerability analysis presentation, Andrea asked the participating jurisdictions to submit their completed “Critical Facilities”, “Capability Assessments”, and “Shelter Surveys” if they haven’t done so already. Vulnerability Analysis Ken Runkle of AEC then began the vulnerability analysis discussion by noting that the focus of this meeting is the vulnerability posed by tornadoes. The analysis estimates future potential damages in terms of dollar loss to residences, including contents, for each participating jurisdiction based on FEMA acceptable formulas. The potential damages were calculated on the magnitude most likely to be encountered, not on a worst -case event. Tornadoes Since 1950, 21 tornadoes have been verified in Kendall County. While occurring less frequently than severe storms and severe winter storms, tornadoes have caused at least $2.9 million in property damages. Appendix B 2 Using information from the 21 verified tornadoes, damages were calculated based on an “average” tornado. The average tornado in Kendall County impacts approximately 0.26 square miles. Housing densities were calculated from U.S. Census Bureau information for each of the participating jurisdictions. This information, along with a set of assumptions were used to estimate the number of vulnerable residential structures. Potential dollar losses were then calculated for these vulnerable residential structures using the provided tax assessment values and an additional assumption about the degree of damage sustained by the structures and their contents. Potential dollar losses caused by an average-sized tornado to residences and their contents would be expected to exceed at least $23 million in any of the participating municipalities. Losses ranged from $23 million in Lisbon to $177 million in Montgomery. Potential dollar losses by township would be expected to range from $729,732 in Lisbon Township to $44 million in Oswego Township. Ken noted that the damage figure for the most populated townships would only be reached if the tornado’s path included a portion a municipality. Risk Priority Index Exercise Results Andrea then presented the results of the Risk Priority Index Exercise that was conducted at the April 18, 2023 meeting. She provided the Committee with a brief recap on what the Risk Priority Index is and how it can help participants determine which hazards present the highest risk and therefore which ones to focus on when formulating mitigation projects and activities. Based on the Committee’s responses, tornadoes scored the highest, followed by thunderstorms with damaging winds and winter storms . The highest scoring man-made hazard was transportation related hazmat incidents. The hazards that scored the lowest included drought, terrorism, and fixed facility hazmat incidents. A side-by-side comparison of how the hazards ranked between the original exercise conducted for the 2012 Plan and this exercise was provided for comparison. The top hazards from the original exercise included floods followed by tornadoes and severe winter storms/extreme cold. Community Lifelines Before discussing mitigation projects and the mitigation action tables with the Committee, Andrea took a few minutes to discuss the concept of community lifelines. FEMA has identified seven community lifelines that are the most fundamental services in the community that, when stabilized, enable all aspects of society to function. The seven community lifelines include: safety & security; food, water, shelter; health & medical; energy (power & fuel); communications; transportation; and hazardous materials. While the concept of community lifelines was developed to support emergency response and planning, FEMA has begun applying it to all phases of emergency management. Efforts to protect community lifelines and prevent and mitigate potential impacts to them is one of the focuses of the BRIC grant program. A handout with a brief description of Appendix B 3 the community lifelines was included in the meeting pac ket. Community lifelines will be included in most project description to create a clear connection to the concept. Asset Vulnerability Survey As part of the Plan update, Andrea indicated that vulnerable community assets need to be identified for the participating jurisdictions. FEMA requires that the Plan include a summary, such as a list of key issues or problem statements, which describes the effects the hazards have on each participating jurisdiction and their assets. Assets include people, structures (including critical facilities, infrastructure, and community lifelines), systems (networks and capabilities such as electrical and communications grids), and natural, historic, and cultural resources. She asked Committee members to complete a 2-page survey distributed to help identify each community’s vulnerable assets and the hazards they are vulnerable to. This information will be used in the vulnerability analysis. Mitigation Actions Prioritization Methodology The Mitigation Actions Prioritization Methodology outlines the approach used to classify each mitigation action identified by the participating jurisdictions and is a FEMA -required element of the Plan. Mitigation actions can be prioritized in a number o f ways. Andrea explained that the updated methodology is based on key factors such as frequency of the hazard, degree of mitigation, and cost/benefit utilization. This methodology helps objectively identify which projects and activities maximize benefits and have a greater likelihood to significantly reduce the long -term vulnerabilities associated with the most frequently-occurring hazards. After reviewing the updated methodology, the Committee determined that no changes needed to be made. Andrea acknowledged that while this methodology does not take politics into consideration, this factor may affect the order in which projects are implemented. She also noted that it is important to keep in mind that implementing a ny of the mitigation projects is desirable regardless of which prioritization category they fall under. Mitigation Projects Committee Members were asked to submit their existing and new Mitigation Projects forms. Andrea then described how the draft methodology, the existing and new lists of mitigation projects, finalized goals and other information will be presented for Committee review. Andrea chose a frequently requested mitigation project, a community safe room (tornado shelter), as an example to show how a typical project is prioritized and entered into the Plan on a Mitigation Action Table. She described how each column in the Mitigation Action Table would be completed for this example project. Andrea explained that the information in the Mitigation Action Tables would be prepared by AEC, but that the Tables cannot be completed until all of the participants submit their draft lists of projects. Committee Members will have the opportunity at the next meeting Appendix B 4 to review all of the mitigation projects submitted so that they can make adjustments to their lists if they choose. It was noted that each jurisdiction will have their own list of jurisdiction-specific mitigation projects and they do not need to get approval from the County or any of the other participants for any of their projects. Participants were also reminded that this is a list of projects and activities they would like to see accomplished if funding becomes available. For a jurisdiction to be eligible for a project, it must be on its list. This is a mitigation plan and there are some projects that IEMA/FEMA do not consider mitigation. Projects associated with emergency preparedness, disaster response & recovery and maintenance will not be included in the Plan. Andrea noted that as the committee members put their lists together, if they are unsure about whether a project would be considered mitigation, go ahead, and include it on their list. AEC will review the lists and help make the appropriate determinations. What Happens Next? Andrea asked that mitigation project forms and all othe r previously-distributed forms be returned to AEC by August 31. The Committee agreed to schedule the next meeting on: October 24, 2023 3 p.m. Oswego Fire Protection District Station 1, 3511 Woolley Road, Oswego Public Comment With no additional questions or comments, Andrea and Roger adjourned the meeting.

Welcome Andrea Bostwick-Campbell, American Environmental Corporation (AEC), opened the meeting and welcomed attendees. Handout materials were distributed to each member in attendance. Andrea provided a brief recap to reorient Committee members as to what has been accomplished and what will be covered at this meeting. Mitigation Project Submittal & Action Tables Andrea thanked the Committee Members for assembling their lists of mitigation projects and activities. She explained that the information in the draft Mitigation Action Tables handout was prepared by AEC using the lists of mitigation projects and activities provided by the participation jurisdictions. A draft of the Mitigation Strategy section that details the review and re-evaluation of the goals and prioritization methodology as well as how the mitigation projects were analyzed in the tables was also provided in the meeting handouts for review by the Committee. Committee members were asked to review the Mitigation Action Tables containing the descriptions of the mitigation projects and activities. Andrea and Callie Smith of AEC moved throughout the room to discuss questions with each member. Some committee members expressed interest in adding additional mitigation projects to these tables. Andrea advised Committee Members who wished to add additional projects to provide them to her as soon as possible, and no later than mid-December. Participants were reminded that this is a list of projects and activities they would like to see accomplished if the money becomes available. Also, for a jurisdiction to be eligible for a project, it must be on its list. Appendix B 2 Since this is a mitigation plan, some projects were either removed or not included if they were not considered mitigation. Projects associated emergency preparedness, response, recovery, and maintenance will not be included in the Plan. Public Forum and Adoption Andrea laid out the timeline for the remainder of the Plan update process and explained in more detail how the final meeting and adoption process would proceed. The final Committee meeting will be conducted as an open-house style public forum to present the draft Plan for review and comment. A paper copy of the draft Plan will be avail able for review at the meeting and posted online on the County’s website. There will be a two- week public comment period following the public forum. Unless otherwise specified, Committee members will receive an electronic copy of the draft Plan to make available for public comment. Once the comment period is over, any comments received will be incorporated into the Plan and submitted to IEMA/FEMA. Following IEMA and FEMA review, any edits requested will be made and then FEMA will issue an Approval Pending Adoption letter. At this point an email will be sent to all the participating jurisdictions, along with a copy of a model adoption resolution, asking them to formally adopt the Plan by resolution. A copy of the executed resolution should then be provided to AEC. Once all the adoption resolutions are received, Andrea will submit them to IEMA and FEMA. FEMA will then issue the Final Approval letter starting the clock for the five-year update. Plan Maintenance and Update Andrea described the commitments detailed in a draft of the Plan Maintenance and Update section provided in the meeting handouts for review by the Committee. The Plan will be monitored and evaluated on an annual basis by a Plan Main tenance Subcommittee, which will be made up of the participating jurisdictions and key members of the Planning Committee. The Kendall County EMA Office will send out a Plan Maintenance Checklist to each of the participating jurisdictions who will be respon sible for providing information to the Subcommittee. This information will include: the status of their mitigation actions; any hazard-related damages to critical facilities and infrastructure; the adoption of any new plans, policies, or regulations; and any significant changes in development. The Subcommittee will also evaluate the Plan to determine its effectiveness at achieving its stated purpose and goals. Participants can also add new mitigation actions during the annual monitoring phase or by conta cting the EMA Director. The EMA Office will then prepare an annual progress report detailing the results of the annual monitoring and evaluation period and provide copies to the Subcommittee. Any modifications or additions to mitigation project lists will require an update of the Mitigation Strategy and a resubmittal of the Plan to IEMA and FEMA for reference. At least once every five years, the Plan must be reviewed, revised , and resubmitted to IEMA/FEMA for the participating jurisdictions to remain eligible for mitigation project funds. At the five-year update, any jurisdiction that is not already part of this Plan and who wants to become part of the Plan may do so. New jurisdictions must supply the same information that all the current jurisdictions supplied. Appendix B 3 What Happens Next? Public Forum The final Committee meeting will be conducted as an open -house style public forum where the draft Plan update will be presented for review and comment. The public forum will be held on: Tuesday, February 20, 2023 Oswego Fire Protection District Station 1, 3511 Woolley Road, Oswego 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. Public Comment With no other questions, the meeting was adjourned . Appendix B APPENDIX C Appendix C Appendix C Appendix C Appendix C APPENDIX D Frequently Asked Questions Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan Update 1) What is the Kendall County Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan? The Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan evaluates damage to life and property from natural and man-made hazards that have impacted the County and identifies projects and activities to reduce these damages. The Plan is considered to be multi-jurisdictional because it includes municipalities and other jurisdictions (townships, fire protection districts, schools, etc.) who want to participate. 2) What is hazard mitigation? Hazard mitigation is any action taken to reduce the long-term risk to people and property from natural and man-made hazards before an event occurs. 3) Why is this Plan being updated? The Plan update fulfills federal planning requirements of the Stafford Act as amended by the Disaster Mitigation Act and the Disaster Recovery and Reform Act. While meeting federal requirements, this Plan update also provides these benefits:  Funding for mitigation projects and activities before disasters occur.  Funding for projects and activities following declared disasters.  Increased awareness about natural hazards and closer cooperation among the various organizations and political jurisdictions involved in emergency planning and response. 4) Who is updating this Plan? The Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Planning Committee is updating the Plan with assistance from technical experts in emergency planning, environmental matters, and infrastructure. The Committee will include members from education, emergency services, municipal, township and county government, health care, and law enforcement. 5) How can I participate? You are invited to attend public meetings of the Kendall County Multi-Hazard Mitigation Planning Committee. In addition, you are encouraged to provide photographs, other documentation, and anecdotal information about damages you experienced from natural and man-made hazards in Kendall County. Surveys will be available at participating jurisdictions and through Kendall County to help gather specific information from residents. All of this information will be used to update the Plan. The draft Plan update will be presented at a public forum for further public input.

The plan is called a Hazard Mitigation Plan, and the process to update it will be funded through a grant from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). “The Plan describes the natural hazard events that have impacted the County and identifies activities and projects to reduce the risk to residents, property, and infrastructure,” said Roger Bonuchi, Kendall County Emergency Management Agency Director. “By having an updated hazard mitigation plan, the County and participating jurisdictions will become eligible for federal funds to construct these projects,” he added. The Kendall County Hazard Mitigation Planning Committee will hold its first meeting on Tuesday, January 24, 2023, at 3:00 P.M. The meeting will be held at the Kendall County Health Department, 811 W. John Street, Yorkville. The meeting is open to the public. The Planning Committee includes representatives from the county, townships, municipalities, schools, and health care services, as well as technical partners and other stakeholders. Meetings of this committee will be conducted over the next year as working sessions so that any interested residents can attend and ask questions. The purpose of these working sessions is to gather and discuss information that will be used to update the Plan. “This mitigation plan is different from an emergency response plan because it focuses on ways to reduce and prevent damages before they occur,” added Bonuchi.

Since 1972, the County has been a part of seven federal disaster declarations. In addition, there has been at least $7.8 million in verified property damages caused by hazard events in the County,” said Kendall County Emergency Management Agency Director, Roger Bonuchi. “Identifying preventative steps that can be taken to reduce the dollar damages as well as protect public health before a natural hazard event occurs is the goal of this planning process.” This Committee began work in January 2023 to update the County’s All Hazards Mitigation Plan. Committee meetings are open to the public. “Other emergency plans are directed at responding after a storm or disaster strikes. With this Plan, we will identify actions that can be taken to reduce damages caused by natural and man-made hazards for each participating jurisdiction before they occur. This Plan also helps assure each participating jurisdiction is eligible to receive federal grant money for mitigation projects,” added Bonuchi. Building community safe rooms, acquiring flood prone properties, resolving drainage issues, retrofitting critical infrastructure to better withstand hazard events, installing back-up power supplies, and developing public information materials are a few of the more frequently encountered mitigation projects in Illinois.

Each year natural hazards (i.e., severe thunderstorms, tornadoes, severe winter storms, flooding, etc.) cause damage to property and threaten the lives and health of Kendall County residents. Since 1973, Kendall County has been included in 13 emergency and major federal disaster declarations and experienced at least $8 million in recorded property damages and $27.7 million in recorded crop damages. In the last 10 years alone (2013 – 2022), there have been 48 thunderstorms with damaging winds, 41 extreme cold events, 30 excessive heat events, 29 severe winter storms, 25 riverine flood events, 20 flash flood events, 10 severe storms with hail one inch in diameter or greater, 6 tornadoes, 2 verified heavy rain events, and 1 lightning strike with verified damages in the County. While natural and man- made hazards cannot be avoided, their impacts can be reduced through effective hazard mitigation planning and implementation. What is hazard mitigation planning? Hazard mitigation planning is the process of determining how to reduce or eliminate property damage and loss of life from natural and man-made hazards. This process helps the County and participating jurisdictions reduce their risk by identifying vulnerabilities and developing mitigation actions to lessen and sometimes even eliminate the effects of a hazard. The results of this process are documented in a multi-hazard mitigation plan. Why prepare an updated multi-hazard mitigation plan? By preparing and adopting an updated multi-hazard mitigation plan, participating jurisdictions become eligible to apply for and receive federal hazard mitigation funds to implement mitigation actions identified in the plan. These funds, made available through the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000, can help provide local government entities with the opportunity to complete mitigation projects that would not otherwise be financially possible. Who participated in the update of the County’s Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan? Recognizing the benefits that could be gained from preparing an updated multi-hazard mitigation plan, Kendall County invited all the local government entities within the County to participate. The following jurisdictions chose to participate in the Plan update with the County:  Bristol-Kendall FPD  Kendall Township  Lisbon, Village of  Lisbon CCSD #90  Lisbon-Seward FPD  Montgomery, Village of  Newark, Village of  Newark CHSD #18  Newark FPD  Oswego, Village of  Oswego CUSD #308  Oswego FPD  Oswegoland Park District  Oswego Township  Parkview Christian Academy  Plano, City of  Plano CUSD #88  Plattville, Village of  Sandwich Community FPD  St. Mary Catholic School  Yorkville, City of Appendix G KENDALL COUNTY MULTI-JURISDICTIONAL MULTI-HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN How was the Plan update developed? The Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan update was developed through the Kendall County Multi-Jurisdictional Multi-Hazard Mitigation Planning Committee. The Committee included representatives from each participating jurisdiction, as well as agriculture, cultural resources, education, emergency services, planning, recreation, and social services. The Planning Committee met five times between January 2023 and February 2024. Which hazards are included in the Plan update? After reviewing the risk assessment, the Planning Committee chose to include the following hazards in the Plan: Natural Hazards  severe storms (thunderstorms, hail, lightning & heavy rain)  floods (riverine & flash)  severe winter storms (snow & ice)  extreme cold  excessive heat  tornadoes  drought  earthquakes Man-Made Hazards  hazardous substances (generation, transportation, and storage/handling)  waste disposal  hazardous material incidents  waste remediation  nuclear incidents  terrorism What is included in the Plan update? The Plan update is divided into sections that cover the planning process; the risk assessment; the mitigation strategy, including the jurisdiction-specific mitigation action lists; plan maintenance; and adoption. The majority of the Plan update is devoted to the risk assessment and mitigation strategy. The risk assessment identifies the natural and man-made hazards that pose a threat to the County and includes a profile of each hazard, which describes the location and severity of past occurrences, reported damages to public health and property, and the likelihood of future occurrences. It also provides a vulnerability analysis that estimates the potential impacts each natural hazard would have on the health and safety of the residents of Kendall County, as well as the buildings, critical facilities, and infrastructure in the County. The key component of the mitigation strategy is a list of the projects and activities developed by each participating jurisdiction to reduce the potential loss of life and property damage that results from the natural hazards identified in the risk assessment. These projects and activities are intended to be implemented before a hazard event occurs. What happens next? Any comments received at today’s public forum and during the public comment period will be reviewed and, where applicable, incorporated into the draft Plan update before it is submitted to the Illinois Emergency Management Agency and Office of Homeland Security (IEMA-OHS) and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for review. Once IEMA-OHS and FEMA have reviewed and approved the Plan, it will be presented to the County and each participating jurisdiction for formal adoption. After adopting the Plan update, each participating jurisdiction will be eligible to apply for federal mitigation funds and can begin implementing the mitigation actions identified in the Plan.

Examine various avenues for funding a mitigation project; a costly mitigation project could be financially feasible if the community applies for and receives grant funds to supplement available community resources. Environmental  Is the proposed action in a floodplain or wetland or will it indirectly impact the natural and beneficial functions of a floodplain or wetland?  How will the action affect the natural environment?  How will the action affect utility and transportation systems? Comment: Unless detrimental effects of a project on the natural environment can be minimized, the project under consideration may not be a good fit for the community. FEMA 386-9 Using the Hazard Mitigation Plan to Prepare Successful Mitigation Projects 10.1. Program Action Items Each action item will include a brief description, the year the item was included in the plan, the responsible agency, a deadline, actual or estimated cost, and the benefit of the item. Action Items added to the plan during a previous update will also include a status for the item. Some of the action items will not have a specific date as a deadline as they will be ongoing and will continue through the next five years. A list of action items that have been completed or are being removed from the plan since the last update is included at the end of the chapter. All of the original action items added in 2003 are generic in nature and most could apply to all of the participating jurisdictions. During the 2009 and 2015 updates jurisdiction added specific action items. Therefore some of the action items listed below will be generic in scope and could apply to all jurisdictions and some will be for a single jurisdiction. Action Item 1. Building Code Improvements Adopt the latest International series of codes, the new national standard that is being adopted throughout the country. Code revisions should be pursued to strengthen new buildings against damage by high winds, tornadoes and hail. Requiring tornado “safe rooms” in certain structures should be considered. Any code revisions should be consistent with the efforts undertaken by multi-community organizations of building department staff. Year included in plan: 2003 2015 Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan - County of Kane Appendix M Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan 10–6 May 2015 Action item status: This action item is continuing. Responsible agency: Kane County Development Department and building departments of municipalities. The organizations of building department staff should take the lead on drafting new code language. Deadline: This action item will be continuous and each jurisdiction should adopt the latest building codes 18 months after they are published. This will allow “the bugs” to be worked out of the I-Codes, which has been a concern of many communities and will allow full review of the changes by each community. Cost: Staff time. Benefits: This will improve the hazard protection standards for new construction and will ensure a consistent set of building standards across the County. It will also assist communities to improve their BCEGS rating. Action Item 2. Improved Code Enforcement Develop and conduct training for building department staff on the natural hazards aspects of the International Codes, regulation of mobile home installation, and the County stormwater ordinance and its flood protection, wetland protection, erosion and sediment control and best management practices provisions. Year included in plan: 2003 Responsible agency: Kane County Departments to develop training. Municipal building staff to participate. Deadline: This action item will now be continuous. Each jurisdiction should continue to improve code enforcement by providing training to the code enforcement staff in the areas listed above. As the jurisdiction adopts the newest International series of codes; training should be provided to code enforcement staff as soon as possible. Cost: Staff time Benefits: A better educated staff will pay more attention to the details of factors vital to natural hazard mitigation when they review plans and inspect sites, such as ensuring that a structure is securely connected to the foundation. Training will also ensure that staffs understand new I-Code provisions, the County’s stormwater ordinance and their responsibilities under the National Flood Insurance Program. A regular training program can improve BCEGS scores, too. Action Item 3. Review of Plans and Development Regulations When they are up for revision, comprehensive plans, land use plans, and zoning and subdivision ordinances should incorporate mitigation provisions, especially: 2015 Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan - County of Kane Appendix M Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan 10–7 May 2015 – Open space provisions that will protect properties from flooding, preserve wetlands, and enhance groundwater infiltration; – Appropriate farmland preservation measures; – Standards for streets and water systems that facilitate access and use by fire and emergency equipment; – Requirements to bury utility lines; and – Mandating storm shelters in new mobile home parks. Year included in plan: 2003 Responsible agency: Kane County Departments, municipal planning, zoning, engineering and community development departments. Deadline: This action item will be continuous and each jurisdiction should continue to incorporate mitigation provisions and strategies into plans as they are developed or updated. Cost: Staff time Benefits: By incorporating mitigation provisions into other plans and regulations, more offices will be implementing mitigation activities, hazardous areas will be avoided, and new developments will be better protected. 3.1 – Big Rock, Village of The Village will adopt a Subdivision Control Ordinance and accompanying Standard Specifications. Year included in plan: 2009 Responsible Agency: The Village of Big Rock’s Plan Commission, Board of Trustees, and Administrative Office. Deadline: January 1, 2010 Cost: Estimated $5 – $10,000 in legal and engineering review fees and staff time. Benefits: The new Ordinance and Specifications will incorporate mitigation provisions, especially: – Open space provisions that will protect properties from flooding, preserve wetlands, and enhance groundwater infiltration; – Appropriate farmland preservation measures; – Standards for streets and water systems that facilitate access and use by fire and emergency equipment; 2015 Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan - County of Kane Appendix M Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan 10–8 May 2015 – Requirements to bury utility lines; and – Mandating storm shelters in new mobile home parks. 2015 Status Update: Currently the Village does not have any funding for this project. The Village is looking for grants so that we can move forward on our project’s 3.2 – South Elgin, Village of South Elgin has received free local assistance from CMAP to develop a Unified Development Ordinance. This Ordinance will include open space, floodplain, and other mitigation provisions. Year included in plan: 2015 Responsible agency: South Elgin Community Development Deadline: 2017 Cost: $5,000 Benefits: The Unified Development Ordinance will identify areas subject to special flood hazards as well as special flood hazard regulations thereby keeping future development safer during a flood. Action Item 4. Retrofitting Incentives Establish a program of technical assistance and financial incentives to encourage property protection measures on private property, such as: – Surface and subsurface drainage improvements, – Swales and regrading for shallow surface flooding, – Sewer backup protection – Relocating furnaces and water heaters out of basements – Tornado safe rooms – Installing lightning rods Year included in plan: 2003 Responsible agency: Kane County Departments. Municipal offices to be designated by the community’s adopting resolution. Deadline: Each jurisdiction is encouraged to develop and implement incentive programs. It is understood that funding is limited, however when funding becomes available jurisdictions should consider implementing an incentive program. Cost: The level of effort depends upon the size of the community but a 5/100 of 1% of the municipality’s budget (0.0005) would be a good target. 2015 Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan - County of Kane Appendix M Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan 10–9 May 2015 Benefits: Using a 25% rebate level, for every dollar spent by the community, $4 will be spent to protect a property from damage. Communities have found this approach to protect against local drainage and sewer backup problems to be a real cost saver compared to public works projects to control drainage or replace sewer pipes. 4.1 – Big Rock, Village of The Village is planning to work with homeowners on a property protection program for surface and subsurface drainage improvements. Year included in plan: 2009 Responsible Agency: The Village Board of Trustees with the advice and administrative assistance from the Drainage Committee. Deadline: Ongoing program Cost: Unknown and Incremental. Benefits: While certain subdivisions in the Village do not currently have access to drainage systems, other developed areas (Timberview and Welton Subdivisions) can access limited drainage tiles. The Village will work with the residents to identify small local projects on a cost share basis that will alleviate localized flooding without the necessity to undertake a major drainage project. 2015 Status Update: Currently the Village does not have any funding for this project. The Village is looking for grants so that we can move forward on our project’s 4.2 – North Aurora, Village of The village of North Aurora has identified a project to help residents install overhead sewer lines to prevent sewer backup. Overhead sewer means there are no direct openings to the sanitary sewer in the basement. All of the wastewater that is collected in the basement is discharged into a separate sump pit and pumped into the sanitary service line. The basement drainage is dependent on a pump and a continuous electric power supply. Generally, the plumbing from the fixtures on the main floor is installed just below the basement ceiling (hence, the term “overhead”), and is routed to the outsi de service line though an opening high up on the basement wall. Converting the plumbing to an overhead sewer is one of the most expensive ways to prevent basement backups. Nevertheless, it is generally considered to be the best method available. Only the residents who have experienced sewer back-ups and are concerned with taking an active role in resolving the problem will use the cost sharing program. Year included in plan: 2009 Responsible Agency: Public Works 2015 Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan - County of Kane Appendix M Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan 10–10 May 2015 Deadline: This will be an ongoing project for a minimum of 11 years. Cost: The average cost to install an overhead is between $5,000 and $8,000. The Village will pay half, or a maximum $4,000 per household. Benefits: The Overhead will help prevent back-ups into basements during all rain events and other sewer blockages. This program will be offered on a Village–wide basis and therefore has the potential of helping the largest number of residents. 2015 Status Update: The village reviewed this action item for the 2015 update and updated the cost of installation. Current plans are to continue the program for a minimum of 11 years. Action Item 5. Repetitive Loss Projects Protect the buildings in repetitive loss areas 7, 8, 9, 12 and 14. These are the top priority areas based on the flood hazard and type of construction, as explained in the criteria on page 5-12. Acquisition is the recommended property protection approach for areas 7, 8, 9, and 12 and elevation is recommended for areas 9, 12 and 14. Properties in the other repetitive loss areas could be protected by retrofitting measures that could be funded for much less under the cost share program proposed in action item 4. The specific measure to use on each property should be determined by an audit of the building and the owner’s preferences. In each case, no action should be taken without the owner’s full willing cooperation. Year included in plan: 2003 Responsible agency: Kane County Departments (repetitive loss areas 8 and 9) and the appropriate office in Elgin (area 7) and Montgomery (areas 12 and 14). Deadline: The Kane County Departments are continuing to work with IEMA and FEMA on the repetitive loss areas in the county. Cost: Costs depend on individual property to be elevated or acquired. Staff time. Benefits: FEMA and IEMA only fund projects where the benefits are shown to exceed the costs. A benefit/cost analysis must be run for each property in order to qualify for FEMA funds. Action Item 6. Drainage Maintenance Implement a formal and regular drainage system maintenance program. This would involve mapping the local drainage system, determining which areas can be accessed for inspection and maintenance, preparing procedures modeled on CRS program guidance, conducting an annual inspection and removing debris as needed. It would include 2015 Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan - County of Kane Appendix M Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan 10–11 May 2015 educating and working with homeowner associations and other non-governmental entities responsible for maintenance on their own properties. The procedures would treat natural streams different from drainage ditches and developed areas different from vacant lands. Enforcing stream and wetland dumping regulations should also be a part of the program. Year included in plan: 2003 Responsible agency: Municipal public works departments, township road districts, drainage districts. The Kane County Division of Transportation to be responsible for maintenance of roadside ditches under its jurisdiction Deadline: Each jurisdiction is encouraged to develop and implement a drainage maintenance program and ensure that current maintenance programs are up to date and appropriate. Cost: Staff time Benefits: An obstruction to a channel, such as a plugged culvert, can result in overbank flooding during a small rainstorm. By inspecting and maintaining the drainage system, potential flood problems can be identified and corrected before the next big rain. A proactive preventive activity like this can prevent $1,000’s in flood damage, closed streets and threat to people. 6.1 - Algonquin, Village of Dixie Creek Streambank Stabilization & Lake Braewood Naturalization. The existing channel of this creek is subject to high velocities and severe erosion has occurred in the open stream. This has caused Lake Braewood to silt in considerably and it no longer maintains its original stormwater storage capacity. This causes Gaslight Drive, the adjacent park and an adjacent homeowner to flood. Year included in the plan: 2015 Responsible Agency: Public Works Department Deadline: Currently funding for this project is not available. When funding becomes available the project should be completed in 3 years Estimated Cost: $700,000 Benefits: The proposed improvements will stabilize Dixie Creek, open up Lake Braewood for additional stormwater capacity and ultimately protect Gaslight Drive and both Village and private property. 6.2 – Carpentersville, Village of 2015 Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan - County of Kane Appendix M Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan 10–12 May 2015 Lake Marian Watershed - Alt.

As additional funds or grant funding becomes available this project will be expanded further. 7.2 – Lily Lake, Village of The Village of Lily Lake has identified a need for a program to identify and estimate the age of prominent trees along Village roads and right-of-ways and investigate forestry maintenance programs suited to the needs of the Village. The program should also draft guidelines to the maintenance of trees within the Village and draft a tree maintenance 2015 Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan - County of Kane Appendix M Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan 10–14 May 2015 booklet addressing the care and maintenance of trees within the community. Review existing Village tree ordinances and offer amended ordinances, where required, for review by Village Board members. Establish an action plan to maintain trees and forested areas of Village property. Arbor Day will be observed through the planting of a tree species native to northern Illinois at a designated location within the Village Park. Year included in plan: 2009 Responsible agency: The Lily Lake Plan Commission will appoint members to be part of the Village Tree Board. The Village Tree Board will review programs suited to urban forestry and recommend actions to the Plan Commission and the Village Board. Deadline: Once funding is established implementation will be about one year. Cost: A small budget, meeting the Tree City, USA requirements will be established for the distribution of information associated with the care of trees within the Village and community. A portion of the budget will be allocated to amending present tree ordinances. Estimated cost about $2 per capita and staff time. Benefits: Improvement of Village appearance as well as identifying trees that are possible hazards and could create additional problems during emergencies and disasters. 2015 Status Update: The Village currently does not have funding for this project but will continue to look for funding in order to become a Tree City USA recipient. 7.3 – West Dundee, Village of The neighborhood tree trimming project has been ongoing under the supervision of the Public Works Department. This project, on a seven to eight year cycle, allows for every parkway tree within West Dundee to be examined, preventatively maintained (i.e. removal of dead or broken branches, obstructions removed and structural integrity analyzed) and hazardous trees to be identified and removed as needed. The program enhances the vitality of the urban tree canopy and limits the amount of roadway obstructions, debris and potential to damage property through branches being damaged in storm/ice events. The previous budgeted amount to conduct this program was $50,000 a year. However, under the fiscally constrained budget, this program is no longer being funded. A limited amount is available to remove hazardous trees by a contractor in the event that staff cannot safely remove the tree. In the event that funding becomes available, this program will resume its scheduled activities. Year included in plan: 2009 Responsible agency: Village of West Dundee Public Works Department Deadline: Currently the village has no funding for this project. Once funding is identified the project will be incorporated into the Public Works department. 2015 Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan - County of Kane Appendix M Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan 10–15 May 2015 Cost: $50,000 annually Benefits: It maintains a healthy, green canopy of municipal, parkway trees.

Cost: $12,000 Benefits: To mitigate some of the potential problems during high wind incidents and ice storms. Action Item 8. Flood Threat Recognition Continue current funding of rain and stream gages throughout county. Review the gauging network, especially the western rural areas, to determine if additional rain and stream gages are necessary. This work would identify any potential new sites where gages would be most productive and estimate the cost of installing and maintaining them. Participate in the annual Stream Gage Cooperators’ meeting through the USGS, Fox River Coordinating Group with IDNR, and develop gaging capabilities as funding permits and projects call for additional capabilities. Year included in plan: 2003 Responsible agency: Kane County Departments. Deadline: Continue to monitor gage needs in Kane County, Participate in annual Stream Gage Cooperators’ Meetings, and evaluate gaging needs upon onset of all new hydrologic and hydraulic modeling projects. 2015 Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan - County of Kane Appendix M Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan 10–16 May 2015 Cost: Staff time Benefits: Early recognition of an impending flood can save lives and prevent property damage. For example, 10 minutes of lead time could allow evacuation of a parking lot or installation of emergency protection measures. The data collected would also help in evaluating watershed plans and models and designing storm drainage works. 8.1 – Elburn, Village of The Blackberry Creek Subdivision, located south of Keslinger Road and east of Rout 47, contains wetlands of considerable size. These wetlands are part of the natural drainage for the water from rain events for an area roughly bounded by Route 47 on the west, Pouley Road on the east, and Route 38 on the north. During very heavy rain events, this area can be taxed to the point of overflowing, and threaten flooding of homes at the far south end of Blackberry Creek Subdivision. To help mitigate the flooding threat, a dam was built during the initial construction phase of the subdivision. A spillway runs under Patriot Parkway. The water height at the dam is monitored by an electronic flood gage. The flood gage has been damaged by ice, and is no longer functioning, and needs to be replaced. Year Included in plan: 2009 Responsible Agency: The Village of Elburn Public Works Department. Deadline: Currently, the Village has no funding available for this project. Once funding is secured, the project should be completed within one year. Cost: Unknown at this time. No quotes for replacement have been received. Benefits: Monitoring of water levels at the dam in the wetlands area, would allow those residents living in the southern flood zone to receive adequate warning of potential flooding during heavy rain events. 2015 Status Update: This project is still viable, however, due to budgetary constraints, there is no funding available for FY 2015-2016. The project will be re-evaluated during the budgeting process for FY 2016-2017. 8.2 – Montgomery, Village of There is a recurrent flooding problem in the Parkview Estates neighborhood in Montgomery from Waubonsie Creek.

The Village will determine a course of action upon reviewing the results of that study. Year included in plan: 2009 Responsible Agency: The Village is the lead agency for the study/project. Kane County’s Water Resources is the coordinating agency. The Village’s Waste/Stormwater Committee is the contact and administrative agency. Deadline: An RFP for the conceptual study will be submitted to consulting firms by September of 2009. The deadlines for actions resulting from the study are not known at this time. Cost: The conceptual study is expected to cost $5,000. The costs for actions identified by the study are not known but expected to be beyond the Village’s funding means. Benefits: The Tenerelli Subdivision was developed prior to the adoption of the Kane County Stormwater Ordinance. The residents suffer with habitual ponding of water that jeopardizes the proper function of septic leach fields. During storm events, some residents cannot access their homes until the rising water recedes. The subdivision is bordered by undeveloped land with channel drainage that is choked with vegetation. This drainage channel empties into a deteriorating and undersized agricultural drain tile which carries the water from a 2,000 acres watershed to Welch Creek. On another side, the subdivision’s drainage system must accommodate the run-off from a major pass through highway with inadequate right of way drainage provisions. 2015 Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan - County of Kane Appendix M Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan 10–28 May 2015 The conceptual study will be performed by a licensed engineer approved by the Village and County. Any action taken as a result of the study will meet the criteria set in Section 8.8 designed to assure that adverse impacts will not be transferred to neighboring or downstream properties. 2015 Status Update: Currently the Village does not have any funding for this project. The Village is looking for grants so that we can move forward on our project’s 10.6 – Big Rock, Village of After the installation of the Water Reclamation Facility, the Village is researching the feasibility of assuming responsibility for and improving the existing tile line on the south side of the town center to mitigate drainage/flooding conditions in that section of town versus developing a separate nuisance flow system and improved roadway drainage. Year included in plan: 2009 Responsible Agency: The Village Board of Trustees with the advice and administrative assistance from the Drainage Committee. Deadline: The Water Reclamation Facility will not be operational until 2011. A study will be performed shortly thereafter to determine the feasibility of each action. Cost: Unknown Benefits: The South Side of Big Rock is currently underserved by the Rhodes Ave. trunk sewer line which has the capacity to accommodate additional lateral lines for road right of way run-off. The area is also served by an inadequate and deteriorating nuisance flow drainage system. But the system may be able to be replaced on a sectional basis over a period of years to drain flooded and ponding areas on the South Side. 2015 Status Update: Currently the Village does not have any funding for this project. The Village is looking for grants so that we can move forward on our project’s 10.7 – Big Rock, Village of Two subdivisions, Bergman Estates and Raymond Woods, have been newly annexed to the Village (April 2009). The road ways and yards of these residential areas suffer from severe ponding during heavy rains or storm events. The culverts and drainage ways are deteriorating and undersized. Since an adjacent area has been subdivided in preparation for residential development, the Village would like to extend the drainage measures that will be installed for the developing area to serve the adjacent areas. Year included in plan: 2009 Responsible Agency: The Village Board of Trustees with the advice and administrative assistance from the Drainage Committee. 2015 Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan - County of Kane Appendix M Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan 10–29 May 2015 Deadline: At this time the village does not have funding for this project and a deadline can not be specified until funding is established. Cost: Preliminary estimate, $250,000 – $500,000 for the initial phase. Benefits: The roadways and driveways in these residential areas are often impassable during and after storm events. Further, ponding on residential property negatively impacts septic field function. A properly sized and functioning system would eliminate these ponding issues and the associated health risks. By coordinating the drainage measures with the adjacent developing property, a more comprehensive solution will be implemented that considers the needs for all of the residents in that area. 2015 Status Update: Currently the Village does not have any funding for this project. The Village is looking for grants so that we can move forward on our project’s 10.8 – Big Rock, Village of The residences and school on the North Side of Big Rock drain to an inadequate and deteriorating agricultural drain tile system. Because the cost to separate these “urbanized” drainage requirements from the agricultural drain tiles is currently prohibitive, an effort has been made to re-organize the drainage district that once regulated the tile system. However, Big Rock will eventually need to create a separate drainage plan for the residential, commercial, and institutional uses for the Route 30 corridor. Year included in plan: 2009 Responsible Agency: The Village Board of Trustees with the advice and administrative assistance from the Drainage Committee. Deadline: At this time the village does not have funding for this project and a deadline can not be specified until funding is established. Cost: A preliminary engineering estimate placed the projects costs in excess of $1.5 million dollars. Benefits: The school property as the land locked depressional area holds water during any wet season and floods excessively in heavy rains and storm events. The residential properties and roadways flood in moderate to severe events. A properly sized and functioning system would eliminate these ponding issues and the associated health risks. Additional Item: An alley behind homes on Main Street would flood when there were heavy rains. After televising the drain tile it was determined that the installation of a new manhole 25 to 30 years ago, damaged the drain tile and was not connected to the current drainage system. Removal of the damaged drain tile and installation of proper drainage lines have alleviated standing water and flooding issues previously experienced by the residents in this block of Main Street. 2015 Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan - County of Kane Appendix M Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan 10–30 May 2015 2015 Status Update: Currently the Village does not have any funding for this project.

The village would need significant funding assistance to move forward on this project. Benefits: The completion of this project will prevent or reduce flooding Terrace and Fox River Bluff Subdivisions. 2015 Status update: Currently the Village of East Dundee is working on Phase II design engineering with FEMA grant process. Final funding has not been awarded to the Village. The Village should receive notification on FEMA funding during the winter of 2015. 2015 Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan - County of Kane Appendix M Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan 10–38 May 2015 10.25 – Elburn, Village of The northwest quadrant of Elburn (north of the Union Pacific Railroad Tracks and west of Route 47) is one of the oldest sections of the Village. The existing storm water drainage system is old. It was not built to handle storm water runoff from the number of residences and businesses that are tied into it. This means that the system is easily overwhelmed during, even moderately heavy, rain events. Adding to this problem are the existing drainage channels that run under the Union Pacific Railroad tracks. These channels are not large enough to completely accommodate the storm water runoff in the quadrant. The Elburn Public Works Department keeps the channels open as much as possible by regularly removing debris and blockages. Responsible Agency: The Village of Elburn Public Works Department. Deadline: When the property immediately south of the Union Pacific Railroad tracks is developed, the Village will require an improved storm water drainage and retention system. Cost: Unknown at this time. The cost will ultimately have to be part of any future development of the area immediately adjacent to the south side of the Union Pacific Railroad tracks. Benefits: Flooding of streets and basements in the northwest quadrant of the Village will be reduced significantly. The existing storm water drainage system will not be overwhelmed by moderately heavy rain events. 2015 Status update: This project is still viable, however, due to budgetary constraints for, and lack of commercial development in area, it is doubtful that any action can be taken on this project for FY 2015-2016. This project will be re-evaluated during the budgeting process for FY 2015-2016. 10.26 – Gilberts, Village of The Village of Gilberts annexed land in 2005 on the north side of Binnie Road extending east from Galligan Road for approximately 2000’. This annexation included the previous township road known as Binnie Road. At the extreme east end of the annex roadway is a dip (depression in the roadway that will hide a vehicle for a few seconds) in Binnie Road that is bordered by a restrictive wetlands area prone to flooding in spring with snow melt and during significant rain events. The village continually asphalt patches the lowest point to keep a reasonable roadway surface. There exist field tile on the south side near the wetlands that is compromised at times and requires excavation and mechanical pumping to help alleviate the standing water. 2015 Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan - County of Kane Appendix M Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan 10–39 May 2015 The village would like to remove the existing roadway surface, install a series of engineered culverts, place road rock to an engineered height and then pave the new roadway raising the roadway out of the dip and out of the flood way. Year included in plan: 2009 Responsible Agencies: Public Works Department Deadline: The Village currently has no funding for this project. Once funding is established the project should take about a year. Cost: $450,000 Benefits: This would eliminate the roadway surface being submerged under flood water for any period of time. Emergency vehicles and normal traffic will be able to use the roadway at all times and travel much safer without the blind dip in the road. 2015 Status Update: The Village has not been able to fund this project but would still like to complete the work once funding is available. 10.27 – Maple Park, Village of The Village of Maple Park is working on flooding issues, on the North side of Maple Park, near the water tower and the Heritage Hills Subdivision. Village engineers have begun mapping these areas where flooding occurs. The Village proposes to install new storm water sewer lines and catch basins in these areas; the water on the north side of town will then flow to a detention pond to the west or to the drainage ditch to the south, to allow the water to flow away from these areas. In the Heritage Hills subdivision, increase the size of the existing storm sewers to the north, add a new storm sewer line and catch basin to the south, this water will then flow out to Union drainage ditch #2 Year included in plan: 2009 Responsible Agencies: Village of Maple Park Deadline: Presently there is no funding in the village budget to complete this project. Cost: The estimated cost of this project is over $500,000. At this time the Village does not have the resources to fund this project. Once funding is secured, the Village Engineer’s will develop a specific plan for the project to go forward. Benefits: This project will be beneficial to the surrounding homeowners that suffer basement flooding when heavy rainfall occurs. It will also benefit and alleviate flooding at the Well Pumping Station and Sanitary Sewer Lift Station. 2015 Status Update: In 2012, the village installed a storm drain at the NE corner of Elm & Broadway and also increased the size of the existing storm sewers in the Heritage Hills 2015 Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan - County of Kane Appendix M Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan 10–40 May 2015 subdivision. In 2013, the village installed a new storm drain at the NW corner of Broadway and Willow. In 2014, the village installed a new storm sewer line on Willow Street from Liberty to Green. Although this is a large amount of improvements for the area this will not completely solve the flooding issue. Currently the village does not have any funds allocated in the current budget for any additional improvements. As funding becomes available the village will continue to implement improvements in this area. 10.28 - Montgomery, Village of The Montgomery Overflow of Blackberry Creek conveys flood water from Blackberry Creek to the Fox River in large flooding events. In normal conditions the area is drained by a 12 inch agricultural drain tile which is currently in disrepair and there is standing water through much of the overflow route. The Village proposes to replace the drain tile and restore drainage to the area allowing the soils to drain and restoring their water holding and infiltration capacity allowing the Overflow to function better in flooding events. Responsible Parties: Village of Montgomery and Kane County Deadline: Currently the Village has no funding for this project and a deadline will depend on when funding becomes available. The project can be constructed in phases with the first phase starting after funding is secured and the whole project completed within two years of funding. Cost: $100,000 for replacement of approximately 4500 feet of 12 inch drain tile Benefits: By replacing the drain tile normal drainage can be restored to the Montgomery Overflow area. This will restore the capacity of the soils for infiltration allowing the Overflow to function better in flooding events. Restoring normal drainage to the area will also allow the agricultural lands to be farmed and reduce the impacts that high water tables have had on surrounding residential areas. 2015 Status Update: The Village has looked at this project during the 2015 update and decided that the project is still a good project but currently no funding is available for the project. 10.29 – Montgomery, Village of In the spring of 2013, residents of the Lakewood Creek West subdivision whose homes back up to a large parcel of ComEd right-of-way experienced basement flooding after a 5.5” rain event within 24 hours. During heavy rains the low-lying ComEd depressional filled with storm water runoff which rose to within 6” – 12” of ground level door thresholds. Although water did not flow directly into the homes, the high water levels and increased burden placed on sump pumps caused basement flooding in adjacent homes. The Village Engineer and Public Works staff developed a 3 phase plan for reducing the elevation of stored storm water. Phase I will include the upsizing of detention basin restrictor plates at downstream detention basins to allow improved 2015 Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan - County of Kane Appendix M Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan 10–41 May 2015 passage of storm water. Phase II will be the installation of a 24 inch storm sewer to by- pass the ComEd depressional storage area and transmit the storm water to the existing Lakewood West detention basin system. Phase III will be the construction of a secondary storm sewer outfall through the adjoining Lakewood Creek storm sewer/detention system. Year included in plan: 2014 Responsible agency: Village of Montgomery Deadline: The village Public Works staff completed the Phase I improvements in the Fall of 2013 for $15,000. The Village will monitor the area to determine the level of improvement achieved by the Phase I changes, and will look to secure funding for Phase II and Phase III improvements, with installation to take place in the appropriate budget year following fund appropriation. Cost: Phase I: $15,000, Phase II: $115,000, Phase III: $22,000, Total $152,000 Benefits: Phase I improvements increased detention release rates without causing downstream high water issues, which allowed for a larger volume of available detention within the Lakewood West basin system. Phase II and III improvements will allow positive drainage paths that will greatly reduce or eliminate the storage of storm water runoff in the ComEd right-of-way. 10.30 – Sleepy Hollow, Village of The village has experienced flooding in the area along Sleepy Creek between Winmoor Drive on the west and Locust on the east and Sycamore on the north and Willow on the south. Correcting this situation will require re-grading of existing swale and storm drainage as well as possible repair, replacement or removal of existing dams. Year included in plan: 2009 Responsible Agencies: Board of Trustees/Village Engineers and Public Works Deadline: The Village does not currently have funding for this project. Cost: $750,000 Benefits: resolve repeated flooding of property within the described boundaries. 2015 Status Update: The Village does not have the funding, but still desires to complete this project. 10.31 – Sleepy Hollow, Village of 2015 Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan - County of Kane Appendix M Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan 10–42 May 2015 The village has experienced flooding in the area along Jelkes Creek between Sleepy Hollow Road on the west and Bullfrog Lane on the east and Route 72 on the north and Boncosky Road on the south. Critical facilities in this area, which experience flooding, include the Village Hall, Village Police Department, Village Public Works and the Rutland-Dundee Fire Protection District fire station. This will require possible remeandering of the creek along with increasing the height of the bank downstream as well as establishing additional detention/retention along with swale and drainage re- engineering. Year included in plan: 2009 Responsible Agencies: Board of Trustees/Village Engineers and Public Works Deadline: The Village does not currently have funding for this project. Cost: $1,250,000 Benefits: resolve repeated flooding of property within the described boundaries including the critical facilities listed above. 2015 Status Update: The Village does not have the funding for this project but still desires to complete this project. 10.2. Public Information Strategy Action Item 11. Hazard Mitigation Materials Prepare background information, articles, and other explanations of hazard mitigation topics, including: – The natural hazards that threaten Kane County – What the sirens and warnings mean – Safety and health precautions – What government agencies are doing and how they can help – The hazard mitigation benefits of preventive measures – The procedures that should be followed to ensure that new developments do not create new problems. – The need to protect streams and wetlands from dumping and inappropriate development. – The hazard mitigation benefits of restoring agricultural drainage and rivers, wetlands and other natural areas. These materials are to be provided to County, municipal, school, and private offices for use in presentations, newsletter articles, webpages, brochures and other outreach projects. 2015 Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan - County of Kane Appendix M Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan 10–43 May 2015 Year included in plan: 2003 Responsible agency: Kane County Office of Emergency Management, Water Resources Department, and municipalities. The Red Cross should provide technical advice. Deadline: Each jurisdiction is encouraged to continue to develop materials for the public on natural hazard mitigation strategies and then use the materials for action item 12. Outreach Projects, listed below. Cost: Staff time Benefits: By preparing a master set of locally pertinent articles and materials, each interested office only has to select the most appropriate media and distribute the messages. By simply inserting an article in a newsletter or putting it on the website, the local level of effort is greatly reduced, which increases that likelihood that the messages will get out. The messages will also be technically correct and consistent throughout the County. Action Item 12. Outreach Projects Prepare and disseminate mitigation information based on the materials provided under action item 11. Such projects should include articles in newsletters, news releases, directed mailings, handouts, websites, and displays. Different media should be used for the following audiences: – The general public – Floodplain residents – Developers and builders – Farm owners and operators – Decision makers – Schools and teachers Provide building departments, libraries and other interested offices with a list of references on property protection. Include a request that they make the references available for public use. A special effort should be made to identify references on insurance, flood proofing and other methods of flood protection. Year included in plan: 2003 Responsible agency: Kane County Office of Emergency Management. Municipal leads to be designated by the municipality’s adopting resolution. The Red Cross should also participate. Deadline: Each jurisdiction is encouraged to continue implementing outreach projects and provide mitigation information to the public 2015 Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan - County of Kane Appendix M Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan 10–44 May 2015 Cost: Most projects will only cost staff time, such as newsletter articles and websites. Others, such as directed mailings and brochures, will have printing and/or postage expenses. Benefits: There are many benefits to having a well-informed public. For example, deaths from lightning have steadily decreased over the years because people are more aware of what they should and should not do. More self-help and self-protection measures will be implemented if people know about them and are motivated to pursue them. 10.3. Administrative Action Items This section reviews the additional action items that are needed to administer and support the recommendations of the two previous sections. Action Item 13. Plan Adoption Adopt this Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan by passing a resolution. The County’s resolution creates the Mitigation Coordinating Committee which is described in the next action item. The municipal resolutions adopt each action item that is pertinent to the community and assigns a person responsible for it. Year included in plan: 2003 Responsible agency: County Board, Village Boards and City Councils Deadline: With each update of the plan the county and participating jurisdictions will need to adopt or re-adopt the updated plan within one year of tentative plan approval from FEMA. Cost: Staff time Benefits: Formal adoption of the plan ensures that County and municipal staffs are authorized and instructed to implement the action items. Adoption is also a requirement for recognition of the plan by mitigation funding programs and the Community Rating System. Action Item 14. Mitigation Coordinating Committee The Natural Hazards Mitigation Planning Committee has been converted to a permanent advisory body in the County’s original resolution to adopt this Plan. The Committee: – Act as a forum for hazard mitigation issues, – Disseminate hazard mitigation ideas and activities to all participants, – Monitor implementation of this Action Plan, and 2015 Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan - County of Kane Appendix M Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan 10–45 May 2015 – Report on progress and recommended changes to the County Board and each municipality. The Committee does not have any powers over staff or the municipalities. It is purely an advisory body. Its primary duty is to collect information and report to the County Board, the municipalities, and the public on how well this Plan is being implemented. Other duties include reviewing mitigation proposals, hearing resident concerns about flood protection and related matters, and passing the concerns on to the appropriate entity. The Mitigation Committee is, in effect, Kane County’s hazard mitigation conscience, reminding the member agencies and municipalities that they are all stakeholders in the plan’s success. The resolution charges it with seeing the Plan carried out and recommending changes that may be needed. While it has no formal powers, its work should act as a strong incentive for the offices responsible for the action items to meet their deadlines. Year included in plan: 2003 Responsible agency: The Kane County Development and Community Services Department, Division of Transportation, Environmental and Water Resources Division, GIS Technology Department, and the Office of Emergency Management as well as a representative from each participating jurisdiction. Deadline: The yearly report is due to the County Board in December of each year. The reports should also be made available to all participating jurisdictions. An annual evaluation of the plan’s implementation is required for credit under the Community Rating System. A five year update is required for continuing credit of this Plan under the Community Rating System and FEMA’s mitigation funding programs. Cost: Staff time. Benefits: Those responsible for implementing the various recommendations have many other jobs to do. A monitoring system helps ensure that they don’t forget their assign - ments or fall behind in working on them. The Plan should be evaluated in light of progress, changed conditions, and new opportunities. Action Item 15. Community Rating System Host a workshop to review floodplain management activities currently undertaken and those recommended by this Plan (see the paragraphs on CRS credit at the end of the discussion of each mitigation measure in chapters 4 – 9). Participants will determine whether to apply for a Community Rating System flood insurance premium rate discount. If so, they would submit an application. Year included in plan: 2003 2015 Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan - County of Kane Appendix M Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan 10–46 May 2015 Responsible agency: Kane County Departments. Municipal leads to be designated by the municipality’s adopting resolution. Technical support and a workshop can be provided by the Insurance Services Office. New Deadline: This action item will be continuous. Cost: Staff time. Benefits: There are many benefits to CRS participation, as explained in the document, CRS Application. In addition to saving residents money, it has been shown to provide an effective incentive to implement and maintain floodplain management activities, even during times of drought. 10.4 Action Items Completed Since the 2009 Update Mitigation projects completed from Action Item 1. Building Code Improvements 1. Geneva, City of The City of Geneva will review the 2009 I-codes for amendments and adoption. Benefits: Benefits will include improved construction of facilities, consistent application of the codes. The City of Geneva adopted the 2009 International Building Code in June of 2011. Mitigation projects completed from Action Item 9. Improved Emergency Response 1. Batavia, City of The City of Batavia has identified the Public Works facility as being vital to emergency operations. The existing emergency backup generator within the facility is insufficient to support all tasks necessary for emergency operations. The existing generator will be replaced with a larger natural gas powered unit. Benefits: Provide backup power source for Public Works facility in support of emergency operations. The City completed this work in 2011 2. Carpentersville, Village of 2015 Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan - County of Kane Appendix M Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan 10–47 May 2015 Currently the village Emergency Operations Center (EOC) is located in the Police Department and doubles as the Departments Roll Call room. Anytime the room is activated, phones, computers, tables, chairs, and other supplies are assembled. The Village has plans for a new Public Works facility where an EOC will be added to the basement area. Currently the Village collects approximately $5,000/year for the ESDA operating budget. Any grant money would be used to supplement this amount. Benefits: Reduce the impact of natural and man-made disasters and emergencies to the community due to increased response capability. The EOC can be a vital resource in coordinating the Village’s response to provide the highest level of service to the community. The EOC will then be fully outfitted with radios, computers, phones, and other supplies in a “ready” state. The Village constructed the public works facility and established an EOC within the facility in 2013. 3. Geneva, City of and all municipal jurisdictions in the county. The county had a committee of building department officials from each municipality. For the most part this committee has ceased to exist. The committee worked on common building department issues including mutual aid of building officials for emergencies and disasters. The lead agency for this committee has been the city of Geneva Building Department. It has been determined that this committee should be resurrected. Benefits: Benefits will be unified structure for requesting and receiving help from other communities in the event of natural hazards. The local municipalities started to meet again monthly back in 2012. Starting in February of 2015 all local municipalities are reviewing the 2015 I codes as a group for possible adoption. 4. Pingree Grove, Village of The village of Pingree grove has identified a need for outdoor warning sirens within the village. In 2008 the village installed its first warning siren on Reinking Rd to serve the residents of the Heritage District and Cambridge Lakes South area of the village. A second siren is needed for the Cambridge Lakes North area. This area is bordered by Rt. 47, Rt. 72, and Big Timber Rd. The planned siren would be consistent with the specifications of the current siren and would be installed based on the Village Engineer’s recommendations for maximum coverage. Benefits: This type of warning system greatly benefits the residents of Pingree Grove by alerting them in advance of severe weather allowing them to seek shelter and a place of safety 2015 Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan - County of Kane Appendix M Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan 10–48 May 2015 The Village of Pingree Grove installed the storm sirens in 2013 5. South Elgin, Village of The Village of South Elgin has had several major flooding events affect its residents in the past several years. The village would like to improve the response time for sandbagging operations and increases the overall sandbagging effort for the residents. The village has identified a need to purchase a four-chute sandbagging machine to address this issue. Benefits: The purchase of this sandbagging machine should expedite the filling of sandbags for residents and it is expected the response time of filled sandbags to the affected area will improve. The Village of South Elgin purchased the four-chute sandbagging equipment in 2010. 6. West Dundee, Village of Historically, the Village of West Dundee has provided itself with a part-time Emergency Management Agency (EMA) Coordinator. This position was incorporated into the job description of the Deputy Fire Chief, which also was a part-time position. Due to fiscal restraints and the current state of economic affairs with the Village, the position of Deputy Chief has been eliminated and not replaced. However the village would like to establish an EMA coordinator as soon as the financial situation allows. Benefits: The position would be responsible for the coordination of the Village’s Emergency Operations Plan with the departments of Administration, Community Development & Building, Fire, Police and Public Works. The Part-Time EMA Coordinator would be tasked with the revision and development of a Village of West Dundee Emergency Operations Plan, incorporating the guidelines and practices of the National Incident Management System. The function of the EMA Coordinator would be the preparation of all Village Departments in the event of a natural and/or man-made disaster; and to coordinate the efforts with the surrounding municipalities of Carpentersville, East Dundee, Elgin, Gilberts, Sleepy Hollow as well as the Kane County Office of Emergency Management. The Village has secured a part-time EMA Coordinator; however not at the proposed compensation rate. 7. West Dundee, Village of and Carpentersville, Village of Administrative staff has met with our equivalents from Carpentersville to discuss the possibility of a water system interconnect. Carpentersville’s west water tower is in need of routine maintenance, including cleaning and painting. However, without that tower, their water distribution system would have a difficult time maintaining adequate water 2015 Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan - County of Kane Appendix M Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan 10–49 May 2015 pressure through the western half of their Village. West Dundee will face similar obstacles when the Randall Road Water Tower is serviced in the future. A resolution for both communities needs would be to interconnect each Village’s water systems. This would allow for one community’s tower to be taken out of service and then utilize the other community’s tower to maintain their system’s pressures. The interconnect would be utilized only during times of tower maintenance, high fire volume flows or in response to a catastrophic event. Pending approval by the two communities, construction would be in 2010 with the interconnect available for use by spring, 2011. The estimated cost for this project would be split between the two communities. Benefits: This project will provide emergency access to adjacent community’s water supply in the event of extended high fire flows, catastrophic event of reservoir supply (tower failure) or extended disruption of water production capability. Also, this project will enhanced the ability to perform preventative maintenance on existing water distribution/production system with little to no impact on maintaining current and required water system pressures. This project has been completed. Mitigation projects completed from Action Item 10. Flood Control Projects 1. Algonquin, Village of Ratt Creek Tributary adjacent to Edgewood Drive. The existing channel is subject to high velocities and severe erosion has occurred in the open stream resulting in severely sloped banks and potential undermining of Edgewood Drive and Harper Drive. The Village has developed Streambank Stabilization plans for the above reach of Ratt Creek Tributary to stabilize the channel and protect adjacent roadways. Benefits: The proposed improvements will stabilize the Ratt Creek Tributary streambank and ultimately protect Edgewood Drive and Harper Drive. The Village of Algonquin has completed this project. 2. Aurora, City of The City of Aurora has experienced flooding upstream of Illinois Avenue in a drainage from Greenfield Lake to Orchard Lake. The city has identified the cause of this flooding to be undersized culverts under Illinois Avenue. The undersized culverts need to be replaced. Benefits: Replacement of the undersized culvert should alleviate the flooding. Completed on 08-27-11 with a final cost of $228,972.00 2015 Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan - County of Kane Appendix M Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan 10–50 May 2015 3. Aurora, City of The City of Aurora is proposing to construct storm sewers within sewer basins 5, 6, and 13. The improvements are as follows: 2.1 Basin 6 Fulton, Smith, and Fenton St. Storm and Sanitary Sewer Improvements – which consists of approximately 6,800 lineal feet of storm sewers ranging in size from 12” to 42” in diameter. Completed on 4-21-11 with a final cost of $1,452,066.81 2.2 Basin13 River St Sub Basin Storm Sewer Improvements Phase 2 - which consists of approximately 3,900 lineal feet of storm sewer ranging in size from 6” to 27” in diameter. Completed on 10-5-10 with a final cost of $307,436.86 2.3 Basin13 River St Sub Basin Storm Sewer Improvements Phase 3 - which consists of approximately 7,800 lineal feet of storm sewer ranging in size from 12” to 26” in diameter. Completed on 12-10-10 with a final cost of $2,046,580.07 4. Aurora, City of The City is in the process of preparing a CSO LTCP that will be used as a planning tool to decrease the frequency of combined sewage overflows into the Fox River and Indian Creek. The plan is a requirement listed in the City’s CSO NPDES permit. Benefits: Completed project should reduce frequency of sewage overflows into the Fox River and Indian Creek. The preparation and review of the LTCP was completed in July of 2010. 5. Batavia, City of, Geneva, City of & Kane County Kane County and the cities of Batavia and Geneva have identified that flooding occurs near and along the Braeburn Marsh during heavy rain events. The City has contracted with a consultant to model the watershed and identify flood mitigation projects for the area. Once the mitigation projects have been identified the city will prioritize the projects and start construction; assuming funding will be available from the city or grants are obtained. Benefits: To prevent or reduce future flooding in the Braeburn and Crestview Subdivisions. The study for this item was completed in 2010/2011 and the construction was completed in 2012/2013 2015 Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan - County of Kane Appendix M Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan 10–51 May 2015 6. Batavia, City of The City of Batavia has identified the need to reconstruct the Carriage Crest sanitary lift station. The station serves approximately three hundred acres with a flow of 2,100+/- P.E. The station was constructed in 1968 and is nearing the end of its useful life. Failure of the lift station would result in sanitary sewer overflows. The Carriage Crest Lift Station is located within the Crestview subdivision. Depending on the results of the ongoing Braeburn March drainage study, the lift station may be reconstructed to include a separate storm water lift station. Benefits: To prevent sanitary sewer overflows. To reduce groundwater levels. The construction for this action item was completed in 2010/2011 7. Burlington, Village of To alleviate flooding on the east side of the Village of Burlington wants to improve the drainage from the south side of the railroad tracks to the north side of the railroad tracks. This work would involve replacing drainage tile that has been in place under the railroad since the late 1890’s and replace the section of tile on the north side of the tracks, going under the abandoned grain mill and continuing to the north east that is collapsing. During 2008 the Village undertook steps to assess the condition of the drainage tile after experiencing backup flooding in the eastern area of the Village. Portions of this tile were televised and the collapsing state of the tile was seen. Further improvements would include a grate over the opening of the tile on the south side of the tracks and drainage improvements/replacement of drainage tile. Benefits: to alleviate damages to businesses, homes, well and property in the Village of Burlington. In 2013, the Village of Burlington completed this project using grant money. 8. Campton Hills, Village of During extended wet weather or major storms extensive flooding occurs along Denker Road in the area of the Vestuto property. This flooding creates a wash –out of Denker Road closing the road to traffic affecting 750 vehicles per day. The adjacent property is also being flooded. To elevate these problem 2-24 inch culverts will need to be placed to increase conveyance of 345 cfs of flow. Additional re-grading of Denker Road and the driveway approach to the private residence and ditch grading will also need to be completed. Benefits: This project would eliminate additional ongoing costs needed to keep the road open, allow access to emergency vehicles and the citizens of the village, and prevent or reduce flooding to the adjacent property. 2015 Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan - County of Kane Appendix M Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan 10–52 May 2015 This project was completed and the Village has not had any more issues up to the present, within this area causing road closures or flooding of nearby residences. 9. Sleepy Hollow, Village of The village has identified Saddle Club subdivision and Deer Creek subdivision water shed area as having flooding problems. The village would like to Re-engineer and re-grad swales and storm drainage along with resizing and replacement of culverts. Benefits: Resolve repeated flooding of streets and property within the described boundaries. This project was completed in 2012. 10. South Elgin, Village of Within the Village of South Elgin the area in and near the Renee Detention Pond floods during large rain events. During the September 13, 2008 rain event, the village received 9.38 inches of rain and as a result of this event the village initiated an immediate storm water study in the area resulting of a regional solution to the problem. The village will install a 36 inch storm sewer on Kane Street to carry the storm water from the Kane Street Detention Pond straight to the Fox River thereby avoiding the nearby neighborhood. Rear yard storm sewers will be constructed on Martin Drive between Spring Street and Kane Street. Residents will be allowed to hook up to the new storm sewers once constructed. Other area improvements such as more inlets on the area streets for drainage will be constructed as well as improvements on the Renee Detention Pond. Benefits: By installing the 36 inch storm sewer and other improvements in the area the amount of storm water moved out of the area directly to the Fox River will be increased, thereby preventing or reducing future flooding in the area. The Village of South Elgin completed the 36” storm sewer in 2011. This sewer has greatly improved the capacity of the storm sewer system as well as making several neighborhoods safer during storm events due to the elimination of street flooding. 10.5 Action Items Removed at the Jurisdictions Request since the 2009 Update Action Items removed from Action Item 11.

Krysti J. Barksdale-Noble, AICP Community Development Name Department Majority 1 Summary A request to amend 10-7-9 Park and Recreation Land and School Dedication in the Unified Development Ordinance regarding the methodology, criteria, and formula for requiring park and recreation and school site dedication as a condition of final plat approval of a subdivision. The proposed amendments would revert the calculations to the prior ordinance adopted in 1996 and provide continuity in calculating park and school land cash fees for current and future residential developments. Recommended revisions are specific to Table 10-7-9(A)(1): Parkland Dedication Requirements, Table 10- 7-9(B)(1): School Dedication Requirements, and Table 10-7-9(D): Estimated Population Per Dwelling Unit. Background In January 1996, the City of Yorkville adopted a Land Cash Ordinance which established the required minimum land dedication for parks and schools upon approval of a final plat of subdivision for new residential developments. The land cash ordinance also allowed for a cash in lieu payment rather than the actual land or a combination of both if the development site could not reasonably accommodate the required minimum acreage to be dedicated for public parks and schools. At that time, the formula for calculating the minimum required land dedication was derived from the Illinois State Board of Education recommendations for minimum site criteria based on school classification by grade, county average students per school classification, and county average acreage per school classification. Ultimately, the number of students to be generated by a subdivision or planned unit development was calculated using a data from 1993 which determined the minimum acreage (park and school) required to be dedicated or funded in cash. Since 1996, there have been four (4) amendments to the Land Cash Ordinance related to the fair market value for an improved acre of land in Yorkville. Although the ordinance states “it is recognized that population density, age distributions and local conditions change over years, and the specific formula for the dedication of land, or the payment of fees in lieu thereof… are subject to periodic review and amendment if necessary”, there has been no changes to the methodology the City uses to determine land cash calculations in nearly 30 years. Unified Development Ordinance As part of the Unified Development Ordinance adoption, the consultant prepared recommended changes to the City’s established land cash population methodology, estimated number of students per school classification, and minimum numbers of acres required for both park land and school site dedication. According to staff’s research, these numbers were based off of the 2010 Illinois Capital Development Board’s (ICDB) Acreage Guidelines which serves as the construction management arm for Illinois State Government and most school districts follow these standards when deciding to construct new facilities, as well as the School Construction Laws in the state statute. Furthermore, many area communities have adopted this methodology as well, such as Oswego, St. Charles, Joliet, Elgin, New Memorandum To: City Council From: Krysti J. Barksdale-Noble, Community Development Director CC: Sara Mendez, Planner I Bart Olson, City Administrator Date: April 15, 2024 Subject: PZC 2024-13 Park & Recreation Land and School Site Dedication Proposed Text Amendment 2 Lennox, Woodridge, and the Village of Sleepy Hollow (cited in the UDO). Therefore, the recommendation was made to modernize the land cash formula which was codified in the Unified Development Ordinance. Comparison of Former & Current Calculations The following table illustrates the comparison of the formula from the previous land cash ordinance (approved via Ord. 1996-3) and the current UDO formula: The City previously based our school land cash requirements on an assumption that an average of 321 kids would be in a 7.25-acre elementary school, 429 kids would be in a ~16-acre middle school, and 590 kids would be in a 49-acre high school. The City’s new land cash ordinance changed the methodology of the fees to reduce the total donation from developers to the school district because we modified the population projection table and moved to an assumption that a maximum count of 600 kids would be in an 11-acre elementary school, 900 kids would be in a 19-acre middle school, and 2,300 kids would be in a 48-acre high school 1. However, this new land cash ordinance has the effect of reducing the park and school land cash donation by nearly half. Below are example calculations using the former land cash calculations and the current UDO calculations for a generic residential planned unit development with 100 single-family homes, 50 townhomes, and 20 duplexes, for a total of 170 dwelling units. 1996 Land Cash Ord. UDO Land Cash Ord. Required Park Land Donation/Cash 5.320 acres/$537,320 2.858 acres/$288,658 Required School Land Donation/Cash 7.100 acres/$717,126 3.500 acres/$353,533 Cash in Lieu Fee per Dwelling Unit (Park) SF = $3,787.64 DU = $2,382.68 TH = $2,218.04 SF = $2,090.57 DU = $1,216.90 TH = $1,105.27 Cash in Lieu Fee per Dwelling Unit (School) SF = $5,055.12 DU = $3,180.01 TH = $2,960.28 SF = $2,560.41 DU = $1,490.40 TH = $1,353.67 1 The 2010 ICDB recommendations are the same or very close to the UDO land cash values (e.g., Elementary: 5 acres plus 1 acre per 100 students; Middle: 15 acres plus 1 acre per 100 students; High School: 20 acres plus 1 acre per 100 students).

Park and Recreation Land and School Dedication in the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO). The following is a summary of the proposed amendments: 1. Table 10-7-9(A)(1): Parkland Dedication Requirements. Staff is proposing to remove the following table in its entirety as the total parkland dedication table recommends a minimum total of 5.5 aces per 1,000 people, while the previous 1996 Land Cash Ordinance recommends a minimum of ten (10) acres. Additionally, the original 1996 ordinance did not have a parkland dedication table as presented in the UDO version, which provides minimum acres and size ranges per type of recreation area. Although the 2008 Yorkville Park and Recreation Master Plan provides for such park acreage standards, these standards may be revised in the future. Therefore, staff recommends deferring to the most recent adopted version of the Park and Recreation Master Plan for park acreage standards, as follows: 2. Table 10-7-9(B)(1): School Dedication Requirements a. Replace with the following revised table. Table 10-7-9(B)(1): School Dedication Requirements School Classification Grade Maximum Number of Students For Each School Classification Minimum Number of Land Acres For Each School Site For Such Classification Elementary Schools - Grades K-5 321.50 students 7.25 acres Junior High Schools - Grades 6-8 429.88 students 15.92 acres High Schools - Grades 9-12 590 students 49.30 acres 4 3.

Appendix B – Ordinance No. 1996-3 Staff also proposes to add as Appendix B in the Unified Development Ordinance the previously recorded Ordinance No. 1996-3 Revising United City of the Village of Yorkville Land Cash Ordinance adopted on January 25, 1996 which would codify the ordinance as a reference to the other development related ordinances. Staff Comments Staff supports the revisions to Section 10-7-9 of the Unified Development Ordinance, reinstating the 1996 methodology for determining park and school land dedication requirements, ensuring consistency in cash fee calculations for residential developments both present and forthcoming. This text amendment request is scheduled for a public hearing before the Planning and Zoning Commission on May 8, 2024. Staff will be available at Tuesday night’s meeting to discuss this matter in greater detail. Attachments 1. Draft Approving Ordinance 2.

Subdivision Standards Unified Development Ordinance Update Page 17 of 19 Park and Recreation Land and School Site Dedication As a condition of approval of a final plat of a subdivision, the developer shall dedicate land for park and recreational purposes and for school sites to serve the needs of residents of the development, or a cash contribution in lieu of the land dedication, or a combination of both, at the discretion of the City, in accordance with the criteria and formula below. A. Criteria For Requiring Park and Recreation Land Dedication. 1. Requirements and Population Ratio. The quantity of land required for park dedication shall result directly from the total population of the proposed development. The total requirement shall be five and one half (5 ½)ten (10) acres of land per one thousand (1,000) residents. The required five and one-half (5 ½)t ten (10) acres shall be allocated into different types of recreation areas as shown in Table 10-7-9(A)(1) per the City’s adopted Park and Recreation Master Plan, or as may be required by City Council at its discretion. B. Criteria For School Site Dedication. 1. Requirement and Population Ratio. The required dedication of land for school sites shall depend on the quantity of students projected to be generated within the subdivision. The land dedication requirement shall be determined by obtaining the ratio of: (a) the maximum estimated number of students to be served in each such school classification (this number is determined by applying the estimated population per dwelling unit as defined in Table 10-7-9(B)(1)(D) over (b) the maximum recommended number of students to be served in each school classification ,and then applying such ratio to the (c) minimum recommended number of acres for a school site of each school classification defined in Table 10-7-9(B)(1). The product shall be the number of acres of land required for sufficient school sites to serve the estimated children in each such school classification.

PARK ACREAGE STANDARDS The National Recreation and Park Association (NRPA) set a standard of ten acres of park land, however per 1,000 residents in any community nationwide. Acreage allotment standards were divided into the following allotment standards: two and a half (2.5 ac) acres of minimum and neighborhood parks should be provided for each 1,000 people of a specified geographic neighborhood, seven and a half (7.5 ac) acres per 1,000 residents to equally distribute the parks throughout the community. Additional acreage comparisons can be made across Illinois, as indicated by state averages derived from the Statewide Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan for existing facilities. Illinois does make a statement about regional resource-based recreation lands, noting an average of forty-nine (49) acres per 1,000 residents. This classification function can also be applied to County requirements, it is not included in the municipal analysis. The national standard methodology was revised in mid 1996 to a Level of Service, or LOS. This research tool measures actual facility and park usage and translates these trends into new growth area projects. The NRPA advocates that local providers must review classifications of leisure events, needs, and park space as they specifically impact their individual communities. Physical distribution of actual park land does not calculate into these tables, therefore this information should be cross referenced with the spatial mapping research. The Illinois Department of Resources (IDNR) does not have park acreage standards, therefore it was not included in this analysis.

Background This item was last discussed at the February 27th City Council meeting in conjunction with the FY 25 budget presentation. Prior to Fiscal Year 2023, water rates were last amended by City Council in April of 2014 (Ord. 2014-14) and were set to a five-year schedule, as shown below. Fiscal Year Water Rates (Bi-monthly base charge for 350 cu. ft. + volume rate for every 100 cu. ft. over 350 cu. ft.) 2014 $13.11 + $2.38 2015 $14.00 + $2.97 2016 $16.00 + $3.65 (amended per Ord. 2015-22 – base fee increased from $15 to $16) 2017 $17.00 + $4.30 2018 $17.00 + $4.30 2019 $17.00 + $4.30 The $17 (base) + $4.30 (volumetric) rates remained steady from May 1, 2016 (FY 2017) until FY 2023, when revised rates were implemented on a staggered basis. The base rate amount was increased first on September 1, 2022, by $7, from $17 to $24; followed by a volumetric rate increase of $0.50, from $4.30 to $4.80, on January 1, 2023. Water rates remained at $24 + $4.80 in FY 2024; however, the City did implement a new 1% Places of Eating Tax, which went into effect January 1, 2024. Proceeds from this tax, which will be utilized by the Water Fund to mitigate future rate increases, are expected to generate ~$200,000 for the remainder of FY 2024, and ~$700,000 in FY 2025 (first full year of implementation). As you may recall, in December of 2021 Council identified the DuPage Water Commission (DWC) Lake Michigan water source as the preferred option for the City’s long-term water supply. Since that time, the City has incurred an estimated $7.0 million (thru FYE 2024) in project related costs, primarily consisting of improvements to City-owned water main (to reduce water loss, as required by the Illinois Department of Natural Resources (IDNR)) and engineering services related the IDNR application, the WIFIA loan and the DWC transmission lines. Looking ahead at the upcoming fiscal year, the City has over $15.2 million budgeted for the DWC Water Sourcing and other related projects, including $4.91 million for existing water main improvements and $8.065 million for DWC transmission mains. In order to finance these necessary capital items, and to achieve the targeted water sales revenue amount of $5.4 million shown in the budget (this is a $1.1 million or 25.6% increase over the projected FY 2024 amount of $4.3 million), staff proposes to restart the phasing in of water rate increases starting in FY 2025 as identified below:  Increase the bi-monthly base rate for the first 350 cubic feet of water used by $15, from $24 to $39, beginning on May 1, 2024. This increase will be broadly distributed to every residential, commercial, industrial and governmental account in the City at a flat rate of $7.50 per month. This increase would result in an individual annualized increase of $90 ($15 x 6 billing cycles) over the course of FY 2025 and would yield estimated incremental revenues of ~$350,000 (32% of $1.1 million), based on the City’s current number of utility accounts. Memorandum To: City Council From: Rob Fredrickson, Finance Director Date: April 17, 2024 Subject: Proposed Water Rate Increase – FY 2025  Increase the bi-monthly volumetric (i.e., every 100 cubic feet of water used over 350 cubic feet) by $0.50, from $4.80 to $5.30, beginning on May 1, 2024. This increase in the volumetric rate is expected to generate incremental revenues in FY 2025 of ~$750,000 (68% of $1.1 million), which is estimated based on actual usage by utility billing customers over the last six billing cycles. Individual bi-monthly increases are estimated to fluctuate between $0 and $10.25 ($5.13 monthly) for those customers using between 0 and 2,400 cubic feet – which encapsulates approximately 90% of all utility billing customers in the City. Additional usage amounts and the corresponding projected increases are itemized below: o For 11% of utility billing customers, this volumetric increase will have no impact, as they use 350 cubic feet, or less, in a billing cycle. o For approximately 39% of customers’ (those using between the 351 cubic feet and 1,000 cubic feet per billing cycle), this volumetric increase would result in an additional ~$1.63 per month ($3.25 per billing cycle). o For about 27% of customers’ (those using between 1,001 cubic feet and 1,600 cubic feet per billing cycle), this volumetric increase would result in an additional ~$3.13 per month ($6.25 per billing cycle). o For 14% of customers’ (those using between 1,601 cubic feet and 2,400 cubic feet per billing cycle), this volumetric increase would result in an additional ~$5.13 per month ($10.25 per billing cycle). o For 4% of customers’ (those using between 2,401 cubic feet and 3,300 cubic feet per billing cycle), this volumetric increase would result in an additional ~$7.38 per month ($14.75 per billing cycle). o The remaining ~5% of customers (primarily non-residential), using more than 3,300 cubic feet per billing cycle, this volumetric increase will result in varying costs. Average bi-monthly consumption for the City’s Top 10 water users is ~70,000 cubic feet (based on FY 2023 volume figures), which would result in a monthly increase of $174.13 ($348.25 per billing cycle). The largest users (200,000 cubic feet to 300,000 cubic feet) would see an average increase of ~$500 to ~$750 per month ($1,000 to $1,500 per billing cycle). Please note that this revenue source can be modeled and discussed at different base rates and volumetric rates as desired by Council. However, as noted during the FY 2025 budget discussion, this proposed water rate increase is undoubtedly the first of several water rate increases over the next four fiscal years, as water sale revenues will need to continue to grow between 15% and 20% per year in order to support estimated debt service figures stemming from the Lake Michigan water sourcing project. Moreover, as this project continues to progress, Council will eventually need to adopt a multi-year water rate plan, to satisfy the revenue pledge of 1.25 times (125%) annual debt service amounts required for WIFIA and other related debt (the multi-year rate plan can be adjusted up or down, depending on actual water sale revenues). In order to develop a multi-year rate plan, it is recommended that the City conduct a water rate study, funding for which has been included in the FY 2025 budget (estimated at $100,000 in Engineering Services – Water Fund). Beyond the obvious reason of establishing a multi-year rate structure, the primary purpose of conducting a water rate study is to provide assurance to WIFIA, and other bond holders, that the City will meet it debt coverage requirements. In order to close on the WIFIA loan and future bond issues for the project, the City must prove that revenues equal at least 125% of total debt service. If the revenues used to demonstrate coverage are projected and based on future rate increases, those increases must have already been approved by City Council. The projections must be made by an outside firm, not related to the City or the bond/WIFIA loan issuance. The City will be able to rely on the projected revenues from the water rate study to demonstrate sufficiency of pledged revenues on future debt service. Additional materials regarding the scope and timing of a rate study will be presented to Council for consideration at a future meeting. Recommendation Staff recommends approval of the attached ordinance.

Eric Dhuse Public Works Name Department Summary Attached is a revised IGA with Bristol Township for the paving of certain roads in Bristol Township and the City of Yorkville. There were two minor changes to the document that Bristol Township requested. Background The City Council passed the original IGA on March 26, 2024. Since that time, Bristol Township has requested two (2) minor changes.  The addition of a clause that stated that Bristol Township will not have to maintain any section of road that annexes to the City of Yorkville.  To shorten the term of the agreement from 99 years to 10 years. Attorney Orr has accepted the changes and revised the document accordingly. This will not affect the timing or budget of either of the projects. Recommendation Staff recommends approval of the revised IGA with Bristol Township. Memorandum To: Mayor and City Council From: Eric Dhuse, Director of Public Works CC: Bart Olson, City Administrator Date: April 18, 2024 Subject: Revised IGA with Bristol Township Summary Proposed agreement between the City and Bristol Township for repaving certain roads in Bristol Township and in the City of Yorkville. Background Last year we replaced water main in a large portion of Conover’s Subdivision. Some streets are city streets as outlined in Exhibit 1. Bristol Township is planning on paving all their streets in that subdivision this year. The Township has offered to repave the city streets in exhibit 1 that were affected by the water main project as part of their project. In return, the City would pave certain areas in Bristol Township that are adjacent to one of our paving projects. The specific streets are parts McHugh Rd. between Farmstead and Marketplace and Walnut St. and McHugh intersection. These areas are highlighted in Exhibit 2. No money would change hands, we would each treat the other’s paving area as our own. The agreement would be in effect to ensure we both perform the paving to certain specifications and to indemnify and hold each other harmless. I believe this is a win for the Township and the City. Both entities get better pricing, and a higher quality road since most of the paving can be done at once so there are less joints which gives a better ride for motorists and has less areas for water to permeate. Recommendation I recommend that we approve this agreement with Bristol Township.

Reviewed By: Legal Finance Engineer City Administrator Community Development Purchasing Police Public Works Parks and Recreation Agenda Item Number Public Works Committee #1 Tracking Number PW 2024-34 Leak Detection Proposal City Council – April 23, 2024 PW – 4/16/24 Moved forward to City Council agenda. PW 2024-34 Supermajority (6 out of 9) Approval Proposals from leak detection companies to leak detection services on all water main as part of the non-revenue water loss calculation as required for LM water. Eric Dhuse Public Works Name Department Summary Staff is proposing a multi-year contract with M.E.Simpson to perform leak detection on all 156 miles of water main as required by our decision to use Lake Michigan water. The proposal is for a 3-year term. Background Each year we are required to survey all our water mains for leaks. This is to ensure that we stay below the mandated 10% non-revenue water loss that has been set for Lake Michigan water users. Even though we are not current users, we must be below the 10% threshold to receive Lake Michigan water. For the past few years, we have used M.E.Simpson to perform the leak detection surveys. They have been thorough, affordable, and good to work with. There are very few companies that perform this service, and even fewer that perform to the level we expect. They have earned our respect and trust by being thorough with their surveys, and very accurate with pinpointing the location of leaks. This is a very important aspect of the service, having accurate locations saves time, energy, and money when staff repairs the leaks. To be sure that we are getting the best price, we asked another leak detection company to provide a quote for the same services that M.E. Simpson provides for us. We solicited Associated Technical Services, ATS, to provide the quote. I have attached the proposal for your review. ATS is a good company, we have used their services on and off for over 25 years. When we compare the quotes, ATS did not quote 3 years, but the 1-year quote was $54,834.20 which was considerably higher than M.E. Simpson’s quote of $40,560. ATS also offered an incentive-based survey for $30,957.16 plus $425 for any water main leaks, and $125 for any fire hydrant leaks. I do not recommend this service at this time. Once we have our non - revenue water losses consistently under 10%, we can look at that type of option. When we asked ATS to amend their quote for 3 years, they simply changed the dates, but nothing else. I take that as the price will stay at $54,834.20 for each year. M.E. Simpson quoted us $40,560 in year 1, $40,560 in year 2, and $41,340 in year 3 of the contract. The increase in year 3 is a 2% increase. I feel that we are getting better pricing from M.E. Simpson, and we have been very satisfied with their work through the years. At this time, we have $40,000 budgeted within the Lake Michigan Capital Project Projection that was approved as part of the FY 25 budget. Recommendation Staff recommends the approval of the quote from M.E. Simpson Co., Inc. for the 3 year term. Memorandum To: Public Works Committee From: Eric Dhuse, Director of Public Works CC: Bart Olson, City Administrator Date: April 8, 2024 Subject: Proposed Leak Detection Quote www.ATSLIMITED.com Office: 630.834.1558 ASSOCIATED TECHNICAL SERVICES LTD 321 E Kenilworth Ave., VILLAPARK, IL February 21, 2024 City of Yorkville 610 Tower Ln. Yorkville, Illinois 60560 Attn: Mr. Jon Bauer Water/Sewer Department Foreman RE: 2024-26 Water Distribution System Leak Detection & Location Survey Proposal Dear Mr. Bauer, We are pleased to present the following proposal to perform a multi-phase “ATS COMPREHENSIVE LEAK DETECTION & LOCATION SURVEY” for the City of Yorkville. With an "ATS Leak Survey Program" your water conservation program will fast track to its best possible course. Of the three factors that create an "unaccounted for water loss figure" (UAW): System Leakage, Metering Errors, and Accounting Procedures, an "ATS Leak Survey Program" is the most cost- effective and time-efficient measure that a water utility can take to reduce its Unaccounted-for Water Loss. This is water which is treated and pumped out to your customers only to be lost through leaks into the ground and adjacent sewers lines without generating any revenue. As each newly discovered leak is repaired, the Village will realize immediate returns on your leak survey dollars. In fact, over the years, ATS Leak Surveys have averaged a $15: $1 return in recovered water vs. the cost of hiring ATS. Nationwide studies have determined that of these three major factors, a properly performed leak survey will have the biggest positive impact in reducing water loss in the least amount of time while spending a fraction of the cost of a typical meter testing & replacement program. We also recommend that both metering and accounting procedures be assessed as an important part of any comprehensive water system audit. Annual Fire Hydrant Flushing and Flow Testing, plus Valve Assessment Programs will help ensure that your water system operates at peak efficiency. “Why Is ATS Your Best Choice?” QUALITY: “Quality is never an accident. It is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction, and skillful execution. It represents the wise choice of many alternatives.” ATS has earned its standing as one of the most innovative and successful leak location firms in America. We have conducted literally hundreds of leak surveys in cities of all sizes, ages, and make- ups, all across the Midwest region. Many of these cities have also had experience with other leak survey firms in addition to ATS. In every one of those cities, ATS has never failed to find less than 2 to 10 times the amount of leakage than the competitor’s survey that preceded the ATS Survey. Established 1979 WATER CONSERVATION SPECIALISTS EMERGENCY LEAK PINPOINTING ● LEAK DETECTION SURVEYS ● UNDERGROUND UTILITY LOCATION ● GIS / GPS SURVEYS VALVE EXERCISING ● CCTV PIPE INSPECTIONS ● HYDRANT TESTING & FLUSHING ● LOCATION EQUIPMENT SALES & TRAINING City of Yorkville 2 of 9 February 21, 2024 2024-26 Leak Survey Proposal A Comprehensive ATS Leak Survey is typically accomplished with these steps:  Pre-Survey Meeting – conducted with ATS Survey Project Manager, to discuss all aspects of the project from methodology, equipment, documentation, and results with the Village.  The Designated Survey Area is divided up into manageable “survey sub-areas” which are scaled directly from your maps to get the quantity of water main in each area.  ATS Crews will check in with the Village at the start of every survey workday. You will always know where we will be that day and what kind of progress we are making. Our office never closes. ATS Crews and Offices are available 24 hours a day / 365 days a year.  Ultrasonic Leak Detection Phase of each survey sub-area. We will log every monitored appurtenance, every detected suspect leak site, all map discrepancies and any inaccessible points that need to be found or exposed, so they can be surveyed.  Map Discrepancies - All appurtenances that are shown incorrectly or not shown at all on your maps will be logged on our survey sheets.  Computerized Electronic Leak Location Phase – Re-survey every suspect leak site and accurately pinpoint every subsequently detected leak.  Leak Location Reports are submitted as leaks are located. Leak locations are marked, diagramed, and documented in detail.  Final Survey Report - Gather Leak Repair Data, Recovery calculations, Leak Locations and assemble Final Report. Present the comprehensive Final Survey Report to the Village WATER SYSTEM DATA AND SURVEY HISTORY The New Lenox Water Distribution System contains 156 lineal miles (836,680 lineal feet) of Gray Cast Iron and Ductile Iron Water Main. All these pipe materials adequately transmit leak sounds for leak detection. The New Lenox water system serves a population of 26,141 residents through approx. 8,900 metered water services. This is significant because water service line leaks are the most common leak that we find with ATS Leak Surveys. The water system contains 2,250 Fire Hydrants and 2,160 Mainline Valves. Every single one of them in the designated survey area will be used as primary checkpoints for leak sounds. Every accessible Hydrant Auxiliary Valve will also be monitored for leak sounds. Hundreds of Curb Stops (B-Boxes) will also be checked for leak sounds as needed. City of Yorkville 3 of 9 February 21, 2024 2024-26 Leak Survey Proposal There are good reasons why choosing ATS makes excellent business sense. Superior Experience - ATS helped introduce leak location correlators, and subsequently started to specialize in leak detection in 1979. As a result, ATS has performed more leak surveys and pinpointed more leaks with this technology than anyone. ATS developed the leak survey techniques, correlator survey specs and field strategies that have become the standards for the industry. Over the years many of FCS – Fluid Conservation Systems’ top people including Regional Managers, Sales Staff, Instructors, and their longtime Director of Operations also received training from ATS. FCS also uses ATS for Beta testing new equipment innovations plus software upgrades and developments. Conserving Municipal Manpower and Resources - Many public works departments are already stretched to their limit, providing quality services to your citizens. With our tremendous amount of municipal leak survey experience, ATS frees up your staff so that they can concentrate on their normal duties without distraction. Municipal involvement is normally answering questions and freeing up inaccessible points \ during the location phase on an “as-needed basis”. 24 Hour Customer Support During and After the Survey – ATS never has less than two crews on call 24 hours a day / 365 days a year. ATS has a fleet of 10 Correlator Equipped “ATS Leakmobiles” out in the field five days a week. Every mobile van is fully equipped with an experienced and trained two-person crew capable of handling any leak location or utility location situation you will ever have. While other water suppliers typically wait 3 or more hours for our competitors to arrive, ATS is almost always on the scene in 60 - 90 minutes or less of your call for help. No other firm consistently responds to emergencies as quickly as ATS. Superior Results - Like anything in life, the person who practices their craft every day is going to have distinct and measurable advantages over the person that does not do it as often, and subsequently, as well. For 43 years, ATS has been out in the field everyday performing leak surveys, utility locations and leak pinpointing. Subsequently our listening skills are going to be that much more acute. Your survey is more effectively accomplished while we detect more leaks and pinpoint them with more consistent accuracy than a more infrequent correlator operator can do.  No one listens more intently to every accessible access point than ATS. Therefore, we detect more suspect leak sounds than anyone else.  No one works at a suspect leak site more aggressively than ATS. Therefore, we turn more suspect leak sounds into confirmed leak locations than anyone else.  No one spends more time analyzing a suspect leak site as thoroughly as ATS. Therefore no one pinpoints more leaks as accurately as ATS does. For our clients, more precise leak pinpointing means less digging and less restoration costs.  ATS spends more time performing your leak survey so you can spend less time repairing them and get a greater return in recovering precious water and reducing your water losses. City of Yorkville 4 of 9 February 21, 2024 2024-26 Leak Survey Proposal ESTIMATE OF COST The ATS Comprehensive Leak Survey Program is the most thorough and successful leak survey program in business on two fronts – Superior Findings and Consistently Accurate Pinpointing. Put it all together and you will get the most cost-effective leak survey possible. OPTION A: All-Inclusive (lump sum) Based Survey Pricing - With this type of contract proposal, the detection phase is a lump sum figure and pinpointing is priced per pinpointed leak. Final billing will be based upon the total amount of surveyed water main. Total price is locked in regardless of the actual total number and types of pinpointed leaks. This is our most popular survey program. Without guaranteed money beyond the detection phase, this unique contract pricing puts the incentive on ATS to produce results. OPTION B: Incentive-Based Pricing gives the Village the most flexibility and the opportunity to save money if the water system turns out to be tighter than expected. The Village still wins if it ends up that your water system contains a good number of leaks because you won’t spend an extra dollar without getting an accurate leak location in return. Since there are no fee guarantees for ATS beyond the detection phase, there is obvious incentive for ATS to find as many leaks as possible for the Village. The more leaks we find, the more money you save. OPTION C: Fire Hydrant Survey allows ATS to move through system swiftly and timely. This is your best choice when you have limited funds in your budget. Also allows for repairs to be done in a timely fashion and prepare for the next year’s fiscal budget. All-Inclusive Based Pricing Detection and Location Phase: 836,680 lineal feet of water main @ $ 0.065 per L.F. = $ 54,384.20 Incentive- Based Pricing Detection Phase: 836,680 @ $ 0.037 per lineal foot of water main = $ 30,957.16 Location Phase: $ 425.00 per leak that is pinpointed in the field. $ 125.00 per leak that is determined to be a leaking Fire Hydrant. Hydrant Survey Only Option C: Detection Phase: 836,680 per lineal feet of water main @ $ 0.025 per LF = $ 20,917.00 Location Phase: $ 425.00 for Every Pinpointed Main Line and Service Line Leak. $ 125.00 for Every Fire Hydrant Leak and Valve Leak. SURVEY COMPLETION TIME: We estimate the DETECTION PHASE of the survey can be completed in approximately 35 - 50 workdays (Weather permitting). The duration of the LOCATION PHASE will depend upon the number of suspect leak sites to investigate and actual number, type and location of those pinpointed leaks. Based upon our experience, another 15 - 20 workdays for pinpointing are possible. City of Yorkville 5 of 9 February 21, 2024 2024-26 Leak Survey Proposal Scope of Work ATS Comprehensive Survey Program: Every fire hydrant, accessible hydrant auxiliary valve, and every mainline valve will be monitored for leak sounds. When a water system starts to get tighter, there is more emphasis on the surveyor to have to dig deeper to find the leaks that are not making obvious leak sounds. This fact makes monitoring every valve essential to finding these tough leaks. Valves are the best quality listening point possible. The thoroughness of this technique ensures that every detectable leak is found. ULTRASONIC LEAK DETECTION: The existence and general neighborhood of every detected suspect leak is established with FCS S-30 Ultrasonic Leak Detection Equipment. A preliminary leak size and leak type classification is also made at that time. A significant difference between an ATS Leak Survey and the other surveyors is in the ultrasonic leak detection phase’s number of checkpoints. You put yourself in the best position to detect more leaks by listening to as many points as possible, especially mainline valves. No one checks more points for leak sounds as accurately and as thoroughly as ATS. DETECTION SURVEY RECORDS: Every accessible fire hydrant, hydrant auxiliary valve and mainline valve is monitored for suspect leak sounds. B-Boxes are checked only in the vicinity of a detected suspect leak site. Valuable survey and system data is collected and logged on these records. This data includes Appurtenance Type and Location, General Conditions Encountered, Accessibility, Map Discrepancies and Leak Sound Characteristics. COMPUTERIZED LEAK ANALYSIS & PINPOINTING: Every suspect leak site, no matter how slight the sound, is electronically confirmed with one of our 10 computerized FCS AccuCorr, FCS Tri-Corr 2002, FCS 9090 or Sewerin SeCorr Leak Noise Correlator Systems. The pinpointing phase begins with ultrasonically resurveying every suspect leak site, electronic Correlator analysis of every suspect leak site to either eliminate a suspect leak site or accurately confirm the presence of the leak and pinpoint its exact location. By analyzing, timing, and measuring leak sound waves simultaneously from two monitoring points, the leak’s exact location is pinpointed with unmatched consistent accurately. WATER MAIN and VALVE LOCATION: All of the water main and service connections are accurately located in the vicinity of every leak location. This helps ensure that every survey leak is pinpointed as accurately as possible. All utility line location work is expertly performed with Radiodetection RD7000, RD8000 High Performance Utility Location Systems, Schonstedt, CTS Berger and Radiodetection Ferromagnetic Metal Locators. No one works a leak site harder than ATS! “X” MARKS THE SPOT! The pinpointed location of every mainline, service line and valve leak will be marked in the field with spray marking paint with an “X”. The exceptions are homeowner’s side service leaks and hydrant leaks. A “Leak Location Report” form documents the location and type, characteristics of every pinpointed leak. LEAK LOCATION REPORTS: This is an individual report form that details the exact location and characteristics of each pinpointed leak. These forms are submitted daily as the leaks are pinpointed. The Village with actual leak repair information updates each Leak Report which is used to calculate water loss and revenue recovery data for the Final Report City of Yorkville 6 of 9 February 21, 2024 2024-26 Leak Survey Proposal FINAL REPORT: Three (3) copies of a comprehensive FINAL SURVEY REPORT will be submitted after the completion of the survey. Additional copies are available upon request. Your Final Report will concisely detail all our survey activities and findings, estimated & calculated leak sizes, and revenue recovery calculations for each leak. We also include survey area maps showing leak locations in each area and system-wide leak locations, plus each individual leak location report with Village repair and calculated leak size information, general observations, and recommendations. INITIATING THE SURVEY: We only need your verbal authorization followed by your Purchase Order and / or signed ATS Leak Survey Contracts, to schedule your Pre-Survey Meeting, and initiate your Survey. The Pre-Survey Meeting details all aspects of the survey. Yours Truly, ASSOCIATED TECHNICAL SERVICES LTD. Marcia A. Kaplar Marcie A.

F) The entire area designated by the Owner shall be surveyed for leakage. Detected leaks shall be pinpointed only on that part of the water system maintained by the Owner. Unless it is previously specified and ordered, customer service line leaks will only be pinpointed up to the municipal side of the curb stop without additional charges. Leaks on the customer side of the curb stop typically require a separate appointment so ATS can contact the service line inside the building. G) Only those leaks that are detected by the ATS Leak Survey are to be included in the pinpointing phase of this contract. Unless other previous arrangements are made, any pinpointing of any incidentally or coincidentally occurring leakage, main breaks or previously known leakage that was not initially included in our proposal or as a part of this agreement shall be charged at our normal rates for scheduled / emergency service callouts. H) If the “Re-monitoring of Repaired Leak Sites” service is specified, included in our proposal and ordered, this agreement, leak repairs to that site must be completed within 30 days after that leak’s location report was submitted to the Owner. The Owner then must notify ATS at the time of repairs so re-monitoring can be scheduled. All subsequently detected leakage will be located.

J) ATS will provide basic traffic warning equipment and traffic control and re-direction with flagmen. on an as-needed basis, whenever conditions dictate the necessity of these safety precautions. ATS Work Zone Safety Equipment includes but is not limited to safety vests, vehicle arrow. boards, strobe warning lights and safety cones that are used whenever our vehicles are parked during the leak survey on residential and other light or slower traffic areas. City of Yorkville 9 of 9 February 21, 2024 2024-26 Leak Survey Proposal GENERAL CONDITIONS FOR LEAK SURVEYS RESPONSIBILITY OF OWNER The Owner will ensure easy access to all main line valves, valve boxes or other strategically necessary access points. This may also include exposing and cleaning out auxiliary valves and b-boxes on an as-needed basis if they will facilitate the accurate confirmation and pinpointing of a detected leak. This could include breaking loose needed valve covers; pumping water out all valve vaults and boxes and, if necessary, removing debris from those enclosures to make the valves and adjoining pipelines accessible. The Owner will also make access available to any point or location strategically needed by ATS to perform said work at the discretion of ATS.  If the Owner orders leak pinpointing between the curb stop and the customer’s building, the Owner shall be responsible for contact with the customer. Pinpointing can be performed on a weekday from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM without incurring overtime charges.  The Owner will make available to ATS all available location maps, schematics, as-built drawings, final reports from previous leak surveys, and any other data pertaining to the area being surveyed. Access to the “IDOT LMO-2” Annual Water Audit Reports is also very helpful.  The Owner will make available knowledgeable, qualified personnel for consultation and assistance regarding the Owner’s water system.  Identify the authorized representatives of the Owner to act on behalf of the Owner and sign ATS agreements, purchase orders and additional work orders.  Give ATS right of access, and necessary identification required, and notify appropriate authorities (Police, Fire Dept., Public Works Dept., etc.) as needed of program underway.  The Owner will at its option, provide Traffic Warning Equipment, Traffic Control and Re-Direction with Flagmen on an as-needed basis, should conditions dictate the necessity of this safety precaution. Instances such as a lane closure in a heavy traffic area may require hiring the services of a Work Zone Safety Vendor to provide the necessary traffic control equipment such as barricades, warning lights, arrow panels and temporary barriers. The Owner must approve any use of a Work Zone Safety Vendor in advance. The owner will be responsible for the costs of the Work Zone Safety Vendor.  Owner’s repair crews shall make a reasonable effort to provide ATS with accurate leak repair information whenever this data is available. Repair data should detail the following: Date of repair; type of leak; approximate size and shape of the leak orifice; approximate water pressure; and method of repair. This information is necessary for ATS to make leak size, water loss and revenue recovery calculations for a comprehensive “Leak Survey Final Report”. Please Note: ATS does not guarantee the detection or accurate pinpointing of a leak or leaks but does assure that the best effort in that regard will be put forward. Certain input data to the ATS Leak Detection & Location System is based upon information received from the Owner. The accuracy of the Owner’s data will directly affect the results of the Leak Survey. ATS will attempt to verify such data by consultation with the Owner and thereupon will have a right to rely upon the accuracy of the Owner’s data. ATS is not liable for any costs to the Owner as a result of incomplete or inaccurate data supplied by the Owner or their representatives.

PW 2024-38 Majority Approval Annual resolution appropriating MFT funds for the purchase of bulk rock salt Eric Dhuse Public Works Name Department Summary Staff is brining forward the required forms to purchase bulk rock salt using MFT funds. Background Each year we participate in the bulk rock salt purchasing program through the State of Illinois using MFT funds. The program opens in March of each year, but we won’t learn the winning bidder or price until late October of this year. In the meantime, we need to formally approve anticipated spending of MFT funds through a resolution (attached) and submit the Maintenance Expenditure Statement which tracks our fund usage. Once this is completed and approved by IDOT, we will be allowed to use MFT funds to purchase bulk rock salt for the upcoming snow removal season. Our bid for this year was for 1600 tons of salt. The program we selected allows us to purchase a minimum of 80% (1280 tons) up to 120% (1920 tons) under the contract price. I have asked to appropriate $190,000 for salt purchase this year. This amount is the total amount that is in the approved FY 25 budget. This is a conservative number and I do not expect to spend all the funds. This past year the salt bid came in at $79.22 per ton and I have budgeted upwards of $100/per ton to be safe. If we do not use the funds, it will return to our MFT fund as an unencumber amount of money that can be used on other approved projects. Recommendation I recommend the approval of the IDOT resolution for maintenance to allow the City to purchase bulk rock salt using MFT funds.

Erin Willrett Administration Name Department Summary Memorandum To: Administration Committee From: Erin Willrett, Assistant City Administrator CC: Bart Olson, City Administrator Date: April 17, 2024 Subject: AACVB 2024 Municipal Marketing Plan Review of the 2024 municipal marketing plan from the Aurora Area Convention and Visitors Bureau. Background The City last reviewed a municipal marketing plan in March 2023. Staff met with AACVB representatives in advance of their written recommendation on the 2024 marketing plan. The proposed 2024 marketing plan from the AACVB is attached. AACVB Director of Marketing James Cardis will be present at the meeting to go over each one of the ad buys and the overall plan. The AACVB is recommending that the 2024 plan contain $53,000 worth of marketing. The split of funding is proposed to be: o $15,00 Datafy: destination campaign o $12,500 WGN Hometown Takeover (NEW) o $9,500 Social/Digital Advertising o $8,000 print marketing (Go West Guide, Chicago Magazine, Midwest Living and AAA Living) o $8,000 Video/Photo production New this year in the marketing plan, is the WGN Hometown Takeover. WGN radio reached out to city staff at the beginning of the calendar year to see if this is something we would be interested. With AACVB’s budgetary help, we were able to make it happen. In June 2024, WGN is going to send on-air personality, Jon Hansen to Yorkville to uncover what makes this such a special town. Jon will be visiting different locations, talking to city officials, and creating a fun video that will be shared across WGN social channels. The video will be filmed during the month of June. Then, on the last Thursday of June, WGN will dedicate that day (on-air) to feature Yorkville. Each show during that day (AM Drive, Midday, PM Drive and Evening) will feature a Yorkville business or city influencer (mayor, business owner, etc.) and they’ll be interviewed for a 5-minute segment. In addition to the live segment, Yorkville will be included in all pre-promotion on-air, social media and a commercial spot bank to be used during the year. The city will have access to the video and social promotions to use after the event. Staff is very excited for this new opportunity. Recommendation Staff requests feedback on the AACVB plan. Staff is generally supportive of the 2024 marketing plan. If the committee agrees with the plan, the recommendation can be taken to the April 23rd City Council meeting for a vote.

ADM 2024-22 Majority Approval Please see the attached memo. Bart Olson Administration Name Department Summary Consideration of a new salary schedule for all City employees, based on external compensation surveys and internal equity considerations. Background This item was last discussed by the City Council in February 2024, when the City Council heard during the FY 25 budget presentation that the City staff was conducting a salary survey of surrounding towns with the intent to adopt a new salary schedule for all employees. Since then, we have completed our data compilation efforts and have made recommendations for salary ranges for all non-union City employees. These salary ranges do not have to approved by City Council, but we are asking the City Council to endorse them to make sure there is no question about how future position recruitments will be posted with salary ranges. When the City has a vacant employment position, we have to draft a recruitment ad, and having a recently adopted salary range that is tied to a market study of what other towns are paying similar employees (external equity) and is cross-referenced with what our current employees are being paid (internal equity) helps us attract good candidates and retain good employees. As further described below, we are not proposing any individual salary changes for employees based on these ranges; they will only be used for position recruitment ads and guiding us when we are making salary decisions during normal performance evaluations. The City Council has reviewed these salary ranges every few years and has sometimes formally approved them, usually when a broader salary study is done and then executed with specific salary increases for employees to match the new range. In this case, we feel that the City’s compensation strategy within the budget for the next few years is adequate to keep employees at competitive wages and no specific employee salary movements are recommended because of approving the proposed salary ranges. There are a few employees who will fall through the bottom of the new salary range, but we will administratively adjust those individuals’ salaries on a one-off basis as part of our normal performance and compensation reviews in April/May. As in, we expect that our FY 25 budget figures will be able to cover any salary adjustments for employees without further City Council approval. Memorandum To: City Council From: Bart Olson, City Administrator CC: Date: April 10, 2024 Subject: Salary ranges One of the attached exhibits to this memo includes the town-by-town salary ranges for specific positions. The external comparable towns listed in the study were chosen after careful deliberation of population size, EAV, number of employees within the organization, etc. This group contains the same towns that the City used in the staffing study presented in the FY 25 budget presentation and includes towns larger, smaller, more developed, less developed, etc. Generally, this exhibit will show us the market compensation rates for individual positions. In some cases like Parks and Recreation, finding good comparable compensation information is difficult. A second attached exhibit compiles information about any existing salary ranges for City positions, how those salary ranges would be impacted if we simply increased the low and high ranges at 5.5% each, what the average salary range of each position in comparable towns is, what our City staff recommendation is for the FY 25 salary range for each position, and the basic reasoning underlying that City staff recommendation. To summarize that exhibit: 1) When we conducted the salary survey of our neighboring towns, most of the Department Head positions ended up very close to $120,000 to $165,000 in range. Rather than have a unique range for each position that was only a few hundred dollars apart, I suggest we lump all of the Department Heads together into one salary range (“Director”) 2) There are five other positions (Building Code Official, Facilities Manager, Superintendent of Parks, Superintendent of Recreation, future Superintendent of Water and Sewer) who had similar salary ranges in other towns, and who have similar roles and responsibilities. For internal equity considerations, we recommend putting these positions into a “sub-director” range at $90,000 to $120,000. 3) There are three different Public Works and Parks Foremen, and the salary ranges in other towns was roughly equal. We recommend combining these positions into one “Foreman” range at $80,000 to $105,000. 4) For all other groupings in this attachment, we tried to lump the positions together by department so you could judge how the external equity (i.e. salary ranges in other towns) impacted internal equity considerations (i.e. how close should a Police Records Clerk be, salary-wise, to their boss, the Police Supervisor?). Generally, we tried to make sure that the recommended salary ranges were close to the salary ranges in other towns but also that there was some separation in the ranges between positions that have a supervisor/subordinate relationship. For instance, the Senior Accountant in Finance has a higher salary range than the Accounting Clerk, and the Utility Billing Clerk respectively. While there is no supervisory relationship between these positions (as they all report to the Finance Director), the Senior Accountant is an exempt position and generally works on more complex processes and has higher requirements for education (Bachelor’s Degree) and experience. The final exhibit to this memo is a clean version of the recommended salary ranges, sorted by value of the maximum end of the range. This is the exhibit we would request City Council to approve. Recommendation Staff requests approval of the recommended FY 25 salary ranges.
