Southwest Fox Valley Cable Television Consortium is funded through the cable subscribers.The studio is located at Waubonsee Community College. PUBLIC HEARINGS None. CITIZEN COMMENTS Jesus Alaniz, Colonial Parkway,gave a citizens report on the day that Sherriff Joe Arpaio came in from Arizona.There were many negative reports on the internet and radio.Mr.Alaniz stated that he was with Sheriff Arpaio from the time he arrived to the time he left and they talked quite a bit.During that time Sheriff Arpaio was very kind and respectful to him. He believes the press did an extremely poor job of covering the story and facts. Mr. Alaniz made comments referring to Rahm Emanuel and Dick Durbin's willingness to speak with only members of the press. In the United States Constitution,the first words are,our Congress shall make no law as to determine who the press is,yet that is exactly what Dick Durbin did.There is a difference between the press who handles the First Amendment and the citizens who exercise their Second Amendment rights.The people with the Second Amendment rights recognize that there is a responsibility that goes with that right.The people of the press,who call themselves The Minutes of the Regular Meeting of the City Council—September 13,2011—Page 2 of 8 professional,exercise no responsibility. Mr. Alaniz believes that our city was unfairly and unjustly given a black eye by an irresponsible press. CONSENT AGENDA 1. Bills for Payment-$548,717.43 (CC 2011-101) 2.

Alderman Milschewski said on page 6,Additional Business under Hotel Tax she stated that she asked if there was a way the City Council could get an update as to what has been paid to the Tourism Bureau since January.Also, she stated under Game Farm Road, she asked when the patching would begin. Amended minutes approved unanimously by a viva voce vote. REPORTS MAYOR'S REPORT Mayor Golinski stated he wanted to read a proclamation from the Daughters of the American Revolution. See attached Proclamation. Intergovernmental Agreement for the Reconstruction of Illinois Route 47 (CC 2011-97) Mayor Golinski entertained a motion to approve an ordinance approving an intergovernmental agreement between the United City of Yorkville and the State of Illinois Department of Transportation for the reconstruction of Illinois Route 47 and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute. So moved by Alderman Kot; seconded by Alderman Munns. City Administrator Olson presented a PowerPoint presentation on the Route 47 expansion overview.This overview included streetlights,traffic signal upgrades,downtown changes,changes to intersections, crosswalks, sidewalks and paths, storm water,new medians,and other facts having to deal with a Route 47 expansion. See attached PowerPoint presentation. Mayor Golinski asked for comments or questions on the motion,agreement, or city administrator Olson's presentation. Alderman Gilson had several questions for City Administrator Olson which he answered with the help of Public Works Director Dhuse. Here are the following questions and answers: Maintaining sidewalk easements- The agreement was approved 2 or 3 years ago and was general in its language. It stated the city has a right to build as long as the city agrees to maintain it. Difference between side walk and carriage walk-a carriage walk is just like a sidewalk except for the fact it backs up directly to the curb. Outfalls—The city is responsible for maintaining and repairing them if it is less than 8 feet.Anything over 8 feet reverts back to the state. The Outfalls do not need to be tested for water quality. The Outfalls had been planned in project for a very long time. Power Poles being buried—It is underground utilities instead of overhead utilities. Underground is much more reliable but very expensive. One way for payment of the electric bill to be passed on would be to have a surcharge passed along to everyone's bill in the municipality instead of the city, as an entity, paying for it. This option was never looked into for the city felt it wasn't advisable. The Minutes of the Regular Meeting of the City Council—September 13,2011 — Page 3 of 8 Outsourcing—The City is going to outsource with EEI and do some of it in house with our City's staff. The City will get an invoice from EEI or whoever else the City may use. Alderman Teeling had a question about the people on site supervising water, storm sewer,and sanitary sewer relocations and construction. She believes there will be other parts to this project that will need supervision by the city. She said it seems that there may be additional costs for the city due to extra engineering work needed for the project. City Administrator Olson stated there should not be any other work needed to be supervised. He stated the city is paying IDOT to essentially engineer and build the project. Alderman Teeling questioned City Administrator Olson that in the absence of a city engineer will additional work be needed to be performed by the cities outside engineering group. City Administrator Olson stated no,it will be rolled into the existing contract.This will be done up to a cap,and anything over and above that will be extra. City Administrator Olson stated that he is anticipating over$100,000 in billable staff time over three fiscal years. City Attorney On stated that it is her understanding,having read the documentation that if the city adopts the agreement then the city has to adopt all of the ordinances conveying the rights and easements etc. So she suggested that the motion be a motion for the agreement and all of the ordinances itemized as ABC and D on our agenda because the city cannot adopt one without the other. Alderman Colosimo wanted to clarify that Yorkville does have a city engineer and that is EEI. Alderman Spears asked City Administrator Olson if he stated that it would cost$100,000 over a three- year span,or it would be$33,000 per year. Clearly that would be less than what the city was paying our engineering department. City Administrator Olson stated correct. Alderman Funkhouser stated that Public Works Director Dhuse said that the replacement of the storm sewer would be for an 8 foot section but on number 17 of the agreement states that the storm sewer repair is a 12 foot section.Public Works Director Dhuse stated that is correct and he apologized. Alderman Kot asked how this pavement compares to when Countryside Parkway was extended a few years back. Public Works Director Dhuse stated it is at least as strong as Countryside Parkway if not stronger. Mayor Golinski stated that the previous motion was rescinded and then City Attorney Orr stated and now a motion on the issue should be made to incorporate all of the ordinances before the City Council on this matter. See below. Ordinance 2011-47 Intergovernmental Agreement for the Reconstruction of Illinois Route 47 (CC 2011-97) Mayor Golinski entertained a motion to approve an ordinance approving an intergovernmental agreement between the United City of Yorkville and the state of Illinois Department of Transportation for the reconstruction of Illinois Route 47 and that includes the following ordinances and resolutions and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute. So moved by Alderman Funkhouser; seconded by Alderman Milschewski. Ordinance 2011-48 Regarding Access Drive Roadway Location Near the Intersection of US 34 and Illinois 47 to be Transferred from the State of Illinois to the Jurisdiction of the United City of Yorkville Resolution 2011-21 Appropriating Funds for the Reconstruction of Illinois 47 (Bridge Street)from just North of Illinois 71 to just North of Carpenter Street Ordinance 2011-49 Regulating Parking on Illinois 47(Bridge Street) and US 34 (Veterans Parkway) Ordinance 2011-50 Regulating Encroachment on Public Right of Way Mayor Golinski asked for any comments or questions on the amended motion that incorporates all of the ordinances and resolutions. Motion approved by a roll call vote. Ayes-8 Nays-0 Spears-aye, Colosimo-aye,Funkhouser-aye,Milschewski-aye, Teeling-aye,Gilson-aye,Kot-aye,Munns-aye PUBLIC WORKS COMMITTEE REPORT No Report. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE REPORT The Minutes of the Regular Meeting of the City Council—September 13, 2011 — Page 4 of 8 Annexation of Certain Properties Pursuant to Section 7-1-13 of the Illinois Municipal Code (EDC 2011-36) A motion was made by Alderman Munns to authorize city staff to begin the public notice process to various property owners and government bodies pursuant to 7- 1— 13 of Illinois municipal code; seconded by Alderman Kot. Alderman Munns stated this was brought forward from the EDC with unanimous consent to bring it to the City Council.This is an informational issue to be discussed so that city staff can begin the process.No vote is needed.Alderman Gilson asked if it is the City's intent to forcefully annex,without the consent or agreement of the owners,these properties. City Administrator Olson stated that the agenda item is to begin the process. Alderman Gilson's personal conviction is to not support anything to do with forced annexation. Alderman Kot stated there are businesses on Route 34 that are not part of the City of Yorkville and therefore the city is not getting any taxes.The city is losing out on approximately$25,000 a year that they could use. He is surprised at the number of residences that were part of this plan.He believes this is something the city should pursue.The money would be a welcome addition. Alderman Spears would compare this to eminent domain.The City would be getting extra taxes from the businesses but originally when they bought their properties they had no desire to be annexed. She believes it is inappropriate for the City to forcefully annex the properties in question.Alderman Colosimo stated he does not have an objection to sending out the notices for it gives residents an opportunity to come in and be heard. Some residents might prefer to be annexed and receive city services.He would like to hear what the residents have to say.Alderman Munns wanted to clarify that the committee never realized how many residences were included in this situation,but the businesses that are sitting on Route 34 are taking advantage of services that Yorkville provides.Yorkville has much to gain by determining the number of residences that would be affected. City Administrator Olson stated there is not a provision in the code that would allow the city to exempt certain parcels from the entire territories wholly contained, so there is no discretion that the City has in exempting certain parcels within an entire cloud. City Attorney On stated the City Council discussed the idea that it has to be less than 60 acres, it has to be contiguous, and it has to be wholly bounded.Alderman Munns would like to receive input from citizens. Alderman Funkhouser is not necessarily in favor of forced annexation,but Yorkville does provide city services and there are businesses that have taken advantage of these services.He does not have a problem with starting this process. Alderman Teeling asked if the city would have to hold a public hearing for this issue. City Attorney On stated yes. Alderman Spears stated that it is mainly lease costs that the council is addressing at this time and the businesses on Route 34. Alderman Gilson would like some way for the City to remove the possibility of forced annexation and start the process of notices being sent out without forcing annexation.Alderman Teeling said there are many different property owners and the City would have to have consent from all of them.This is a way to provide citizens with an opportunity to express their opinions. Alderman Gilson wants to know from City Attorney On if there is a way to begin the process without forced annexation being on the table. City Attorney On stated this process is the best way to start the proceedings so that everyone jointly knows simultaneously that the city is doing this not against one property or another but as a part of planning.The public hearing and the notices will absolutely begin a talking process.After hearing what City Attorney On stated,Alderman Gilson said he would feel more comfortable to go ahead and make a motion. Alderman Gilson made a motion to remove the potential of forced annexation from this process and to start the process of discussion for potential annexation discussion amongst all property owners without the potential of forced annexation. City Attorney On stated that is not an amendment to the motion on the table. It is a whole new motion. City Administrator Olson stated the best way to accomplish what Alderman Gilson is looking for would be a no vote on the original motion. City Attorney On stated that is correct. If the motion fails,Alderman Gilson might want to request that his motion is on the next agenda. Alderman Milschewski and Alderman Funkhouser pointed out that we may never get to the point of voting on annexation.This is just a way to hold a public hearing so the businesses and residents can voice their feelings. Motion made by Alderman Munns to authorize city staff to begin the public notice process to various property owners and government bodies pursuant to 7- 1— 13 of Illinois municipal code; seconded by Alderman Kot. Motion approved by a roll call vote. Ayes-6 Nays-2 Gilson-nay,Kot-aye,Munns-aye, Spears-nay, Colosimo-aye,Funkhouser-aye,Milschewski-aye, Teeling-aye PUBLIC SAFETY COMMITTEE REPORT Weather Warning Sirens (PS 2011-16) A motion was made by Alderman Colosimo to authorize the purchase and installation of 3 American signal T— 128 AC/DC outdoor warning sirens from Fulton technologies in an amount not to exceed $52,500; seconded by Alderman Kot. The Minutes of the Regular Meeting of the City Council—September 13,2011 — Page 5 of 8 Alderman Colosimo stated several residences have voiced concerns for they were unable to hear the tornado sirens.A survey was done of the City of Yorkville and there are three dead zones for this municipality that has weak tornado siren coverage. Those areas are Bristol Bay,Autumn Creek, and Country Hills and Raintree.The city has almost$100,000 designated in a fund that is to be used for tornado sirens. Alderman Colosimo asked the City Council to support this for it is a public safety issue. Alderman Gilson agreed that this is needs to be done.He wanted to know how the city decides where the location would be to install the sirens.Police Chief Hart stated typically the locations are on public property.It will either be at the middle school or the water tower. Alderman Milschewski asked about lightning sirens at parks. Chief Police Hart stated that there is one at City Hall and one at the Riverfront Park. The city has no funding for further lightning detectors for they are very expensive. City Administrator Olson stated that the Park Board has talked about buying mobile lightning detectors. Motion approved by a roll call vote.

This was given to the City Council two weeks in advance so the Council could review it and if the Council had any questions for City Administrator Olson he would be happy to answer them. PARK BOARD 2011 Playful City USA Award (CC 2011-105) Director of Park and Recreation Schraw stated that Yorkville had received a Playful City USA award. Playful City USA has a website but it is used as a way to publicize our parks in Yorkville.This award is a way to show that Yorkville cares about parks and play.Yorkville is one of only three cities in Illinois and one of only 151 cities nationwide.Alderman Teeling stated that one of the parks in Yorkville had some damage and a resident called back to state the damage was taken care of immediately. PLAN COMMISSION No report. ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS No report. CITY COUNCIL REPORT No report. CITY CLERK'S REPORT No report. CITY TREASURER'S REPORT No report. COMMUNITY&LIAISON REPORT No report. STAFF REPORT Code Official Intern City administrator Olson stated that the city did hire a code official intern last week. Building Department Meet and Greet (CC 2011-106) Community Development Director Barksdale-Noble stated there would be a meet and greet on September 20 at 8 AM,with the new building code official,Mark Hardin.This gives him the opportunity to introduce himself to the local developers and builders to explain the new code changes. Later in the year he will be doing a seminar on certain sections of the code that may require additional insight from his perspective and getting insight from builders on the changes and how they are adapting to those changes. Playground Ribbon cutting The Minutes of the Regular Meeting of the City Council—September 13, 2011 — Page 6 of 8 On September 21,2011 from 4:30 PM to 6:30 PM,there is going to be a playground ribbon-cutting at Raintree Village.This is our new Castle theme park.There will be hot dogs,chips, and a drink on sale for $1.50 just to cover the cost.

Patriot Walk Mayor Golinski stated that last Sunday was Yorkville's Patriot Walk.There was a great turnout with about 200 people.Mayor Golinski spoke at this event. Director of the Aurora Area Convention and Visitors Bureau Mayor Golinski stated he had lunch with the new Director of the Aurora Area Convention and Visitors Bureau.The director had only been on the job for 10 days when Mayor Golinski spoke to him.When the director gets his bearings he will come to the City Council meeting and present to the Council and open it up to questions.

Ayes-8 Nays-0 Funkhouser-aye,Milschewski-aye,Teeling-aye,Gilson-aye, Kot-aye,Munns-aye, Spears-aye,Colosimo-aye ADDITIONAL BUSINESS IML Conference Alderman Teeling stated that the IML Conference is this week and asked who was attending from the City Council. She cannot attend.Mayor Golinski is attending.Alderman Munns is attending on Friday. City Attorney On is speaking at the conference. Annexation Alderman Spears would like the city to look into working with the county in order to put lien maintenance and property maintenance for county residents.The City of Yorkville has a 1 and Y2 mile agreement with the County to annex property. If people are living within 1 and Y2 miles from city limits then maybe they should abide by Yorkville's ordinances.Alderman Spears believes in the fall Yorkville will have an issue, once again,with the county residents burning leaves.Yorkville has county residents living directly across the street from city residents and they are permitted to burn leaves. City Attorney On stated that the county has regulations that permit the burning of leaves. Alderman Spears stated that city residents even have zoning members come out and try to speak to county residents. Alderman Spears can see it happening again.Mayor Golinski stated the City Council can explore this issue. Developers Alderman Funkhouser stated recently the city had an issue with one of the hearing officer's fine against one of the developers.The fine was looking at$57,200 which was in lieu of the staff recommended $146,000. The developer came to the city with a proposal that asked the city to consider releasing some funds that were due to them but asked if they could be released early. This would allow the developers to maintain their property and come into compliance.The committee denied the request which now is going to add to the compounding problem. As this development continues to be noncompliance,the residents, who were clearly upset when they came into the Public Works Committee,and now they're going to be even more upset for this will be a continued problem with their maintenance. Alderman Funkhouser is not trying to be sympathetic to developers,nor does he want the city staff or Council to be apathetic to our standards. Alderman Funkhouser wants the city staff and city Council to look into the best interest of the city.He understands that the Alderman have a commitment to their constituents.This is an opportunity that the city had to possibly work out a problem. Alderman Funkhouser feels that the city may have failed a little bit on this in terms of following through on potential opportunities to take care of some residents complaints. He wanted to bring this issue up in order to get it resolved now, since the city has a development that is going to be in noncompliance next year. Alderman Gilson stated thefollowing: The problem with Mr. Funkhouser's statement is simple; we are 100%accountable for our constituents. Our constituents showed up, not only members of the community, but members of the HOA that evening, and they had a clear direction. They stated a clear direction as to how they wanted us to handle this issue. We moved forward at committee level according to their direction. You can't speak out of both sides of your mouth. You either report to your constituents and you do exactly what they have asked you to do or you do not and you are sympathetic to developers and sympathetic to our ordinances and our standards. Unfortunately that is a bad precedent.It has nothing to do with being developer unfriendly. It has nothing to do with anything else other than the fact we do have standards and whether you are a developer or a resident you are to comply with those standards. When you are an elected official you are responsible for reporting to your constituents and doing what your constituents have asked you to do. He does not think there was any uncertainty there as to what the direction was from our constituents. He just wanted to make sure that there were two sides of that statement on the record. ADJOURNMENT Mayor Golinski entertained a motion to adjourn the meeting. So moved by Alderman Milschewski; seconded by Alderman Spears. Adjournment of the meeting was unanimously approved by a viva voce vote. Meeting adjourned at 9:35 p.m. The Minutes of the Regular Meeting of the City Council—September 13, 2011 —Page 8 of 8 Minutes submitted by: Beth Warren, City Clerk, City of Yorkville, Illinois REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING s770/e,Aor /3) 20/!
