TEN MINUTE PUBLIC INPUT SESSION
Bob Anderson from Wonder Lake representing Concerned Taxpayers for
Integrity in Government addressed Council explaining the need to abolish Township
Government and requesting Council consider seceding from both McHenry and Nunda
Township.
Noting four other persons had signed in for the ten minute public input session,
all addressing the repaving and opening of Beach Drive, Mayor Cuda requested these
concerns be addressed during the regular discussion of the appropriate agenda item,
Award of Bid for 1997 Street Program.
CONSENT AGENDA
Alderman Bates requested Item #2, Authorization of $1 ,800 additional
expenditure'per IDOT for Shamrock Lane/Route 31 Intersection, and Item #5, Award
of Trophy Bid to Olympic Trophy of Chicago in the amount of $795.56, be withdrawn
for further discussion. Council concurred.
Motion by Bates, seconded by Bolger, to approve the Consent Agenda as
follows:
1) April 16,1997 Regular City Council Meeting Minutes;
3) Authorization to advertise for bids - Main Street Parking Lot;
4) Authorization for bids - Lakeland Park Drainage Project, Phase 2.
Voting Aye: Bolger, Locke, Bates, Lawson.
Voting Nay: None.
Absent: Baird.
Motion carried.
In response to Alderman Bates' inquiry regarding the additional expenditure of
$1,800 for further studies at the Shamrock Lane and Route 31 intersection, Director
of Public Works Batt explained, although the Illinois Department of Transportation is
requesting additional information and will not approve a traffic signal at this
intersection without this information, the Illinois Department of Transportation also
states that it is highly unlikely they will approve the traffic signal at this intersection
even with the required additional information. Director Batt noted it is staff's
recommendation as well as Smith Engineering's recommendation to spend the
additional $1,800 to provide the information which the Illinois Department of
Transportation has requested. It is the opinion of Smith Engineering representative
Gary Rozwadowski that the information obtained from this additional study will in fact
assist the City of McHenry in its attempt to obtain a traffic signal at the intersection
of Route 31 and Shamrock Lane. Mayor Cuda noted without the additional study the
Illinois Department of Transportation has denied the installation of this traffic signal.
Some discussion followed. It was the consensus of Council to obtain more detailed
information from Smith Engineering representative Gary Rozwadowski.
Alderman Bates, noting the $27 difference between the apparent low bidder,
Olympic Trophy of Chicago, Illinois, and Classic Award of McHenry, Illinois, for the
Park and Recreation Department's Summer trophy bid, inquired if consideration could
be given the local bidder. Mayor Cuda noted it was the legal opinion of City Attorneys
Zukowski, Rogers, Flood and McArdle the bid must be awarded to the lowest
responsible bidder.

approved the December 3, 1996 revision of the Lincoln Hill Subdivision Final Plat at
their January 2, 1997 meeting, subject to the installation of landscape materials on
the berm to improve the quality of the natural fencing on the property. Director Batt
also noted that roadway access for the adjacent property owner was discussed during
the review of the Preliminary Plat at the initiation of adjacent property owner, Mr.
Stanley Archacki. The McHenry City Council submitted a written request to the
McHenry County Board regarding additional consideration of Mr. Archacki's request.
The Final Plat does not provide for a roadway access for the adjacent property owner.
Alderman Bates noted the Plan Commission's concerns regarding the installation
of a silt fence and construction traffic.
City Attorney McArdle arrived at 8:10 p.m.
Director Batt also informed Council although developer and property owner, Mr.
Raymond Wals, had paid all of the required Developer Donation Fees, he was
requesting a reimbursement of those fees for one lot as a home already exists on Lot
No. 4. It was noted all other taxing bodies, the Library District, the Fire District and
both School Districts, have complied with Mr. Wals' request and waived the fees for
one lot.
Council past policy has been to acknowledge the action of the other taxing
bodies and waive said fees.
Motion by Lawson, seconded by Bolger, to accept the Plan Commission's
unanimous recommendation and approve the December 3, 1996 version of the Lincoln
Hill Subdivision Final Plat, subject to landscaping materials being installed on the

AUTHORIZATION OF ADDITIONAL EXPENDITURE ON SANITARY SEWER EXTENSION
EAST OF THE RIVER -�
Director of Public Works Batt informed Council during the East of the River
Sanitary Sewer Extension construction at Route 120 and Hillside, Contractor Joel
Kennedy encountered soils containing obvious amounts of petroleum products. The
contamination source is unknown. Director Batt reported to continue the sanitary
sewer construction along the designed construction area is impossible. Exploratory
work to determine the area and depth of the contaminated soils is required. The
City's current service contract with City Engineers Baxter &'Woodman does not
include this type of work. Baxter & Woodman estimated an additional $15,000 will
be needed to explore possible solutions. The anticipated result of the soil exploration
is to locate an alternate route for the sanitary sewer extension in order to provide
sewer April 30, 1997 Page 4
service the affected properties: TO of Illinois, Rose Auto Sales, and Northwest
Electrical Supply.
Alderman Baird arrived at 8:17 a.m.
Director Batt noted the possibility of failure in locating an alternative route.
Future expenditures of between $35,000 - $40,000 may then be necessary. A
lengthy discussion followed. In response to Alderman Locke's inquiry, Director Batt
stated original soil borings did not detect the soil contamination in this area. He also
noted the City was under no obligation to clean the site. An attempt to locate the
origin and obtain monies from the responsible property owner could be considered;
however, considerable expense could be incurred by the City with no definitive results.
Motion by Bolger, seconded by Lawson, to authorize City Engineers Baxter &
Woodman to proceed with additional soil exploration work in the vicinity of Route 120
and Hillside Lane in conjunction with the City of McHenry's sanitary sewer extension
project in an amount not to exceed $15,000.
Voting Aye: Bolger, Locke, Bates, Lawson, Baird.
Voting Nay: None.
Absent: None.
Motion carried.
1997 TEST WELL DRILLING PROGRAM .-�
Director of Public Works Batt reminded Council the 1997-1998 proposed budget
reflects $21 ,500 for a test well drilling program to begin further exploration for
additional ground water sources. A service contract with City Engineers Baxter &
Woodman provides for the preparation of bid solicitation and analysis, award
recommendation, drilling observation, review of all boring logs and test pumpings, as
well as feasibility recommendations for new well sites.
Motion by Bates, seconded by Baird, to award a service contract to City
Engineers Baxter & Woodman in an amount not to exceed $21 ,500 for a test well
drilling program including document preparation, bid solicitation and analysis, award
recommendation, drilling observation, review of all boring logs and test pumping, and
feasibility recommendations of new well sites.
Voting Aye: Bolger, Locke, Bates, Lawson, Baird.
Voting Nay: None.
Absent: None.
Motion carried.
AUTHORIZATION FOR REPAIRS TO WELL NO. 6 ...
Director of Public Works Batt reported Well No. 6 is not pumping to capacity.
Well No. 6 last experienced a complete pump rehabilitation and treatment in 1988.
Since then it has lost considerable capacity and should be reentered. The Layne-
Western Proposal includes a chemical repair treatment and a pump rebuild as well as
a phosphate injection if necessary, in amount not to exceed $16,732.00. Their
proposal also assumes a temporary test pump is not installed and that city crews will
install new wear rings and bearings in the present pump. Director Batt also noted that
the Proposal is $732.00 in excess of the 1997-1998 proposed budget amount.
April 30, 1997 Page 5
Motion by Lawson, seconded by Bolger, to award a service contract to Layne-
Western Company of Aurora, Illinois in an amount not to exceed $16,732.00 for a
`. chemical repair treatment and pump rebuild for Well Pump No. 6.
Voting Aye: Bolger, Locke, Bates, Lawson, Baird.
Voting Nay: None.
Absent: None.
Motion carried.
It was noted that, although repairs to Well No. 6 will improve the City of
McHenry's current water capacity, if the City of McHenry experiences a long dry spell,
water banning may be a possibility.
PROPOSAL FROM ASSOCIATED ROOFING AND WATERPROOFING FOR
REPAIR/REPLACEMENT OF ROOF AT PUBLIC WORKS GARAGE
Director of Public Works Batt reported costs to replace the Public Works Garage
Roof were being investigated when extensive roof damage was experienced during the
April 6, 1997 wind storm. Roof repair costs which would be reimbursed by the City's
insurance carrier have been estimated in the range of $15,000. Roof replacement
�. costs have been estimated at approximately $45,000. Some discussion followed
regarding the advisability to repair or replace the roof.
In response to Alderman Bates' inquiry, Director Batt noted the building whether
used as a public works garage, as a park facility, or just for storage, would remain a
needed desirable property. Batt also noted the roof had lasted well beyond its 10-year
life expectancy. Director of Building & Zoning concurred with Director Batt's analysis
and provided additional information regarding the life expectancy of a flat roof and the
advisability of replacement rather than repair.
Motion by Bolger, seconded by Lawson, to award the roof replacement contract
to Associates Roofing and Waterproofing, Inc. of Wauconda, in an amount not to
exceed $45,200, and to approve an additional expenditure, not to exceed $3,000 to
replace if needed, failed metal decking.
Voting Aye: Bolger, Locke, Bates, Lawson, Baird.
Voting Nay: None.
Absent: None.
Motion carried.
OAK AVENUE EXTENSION - CHANGE ORDERS #1 AND #2
Director of Public Works Batt reported two change orders were necessary with
regard to the realignment project of Industrial/Oak Drive. Change Order #1 is required
as top soil assumed to be available on site was incorrect and had to be imported at
an additional cost of $4,500. Change Order #2 is due to the relocation of a catch
basin due to conflicts with the sidewalk configuration. The relocation results in an
additional cost of $900.
Motion by Bolger, seconded by Lawson, to approve Change Order #1 to permit
the importing of top soil at an additional cost of $4,500 and to approve Change Order
#2 allowing for the relocation of a catch basin resulting in an additional cost of $900.
Voting Aye: Bolger, Locke, Bates, Lawson, Baird.
Voting Nay: None.
Absent: None.
Motion carried.

Construction Company Inc. of Waukegan, Illinois, was the apparent low bidder in an

project estimate and as this is a unit price contract, final costs may vary from the
awarded amount.

received by staff this afternoon from Dan Waszak of 1012 Hollywood Blvd. stating his
opposition to the reopening of Beach Drive from Green Street to Hilltop Avenue.
Mayor Cuda opened the floor for audience participation.

the reopening of Beach Drive from Green Street to Hilltop Avenue citing safety
concerns as well as the roads S-curve configuration.
Stephanie Tilindis of 1002 Bonita addressed Council stating her opposition to
the reopening of Beach Drive from Green Street to Hilltop Avenue, citing safety issues,
specifically children's access to the neighborhood park.
Lynn Thomas of 1007 Bonita addressed Council stating her opposition to the
reopening of Beach Drive from Green Street to Hilltop Avenue, citing the road's
dangerous S-curve configuration. She also requested Council consider the installation
of stop signs at strategic locations if Beach Drive were in fact to be reopened from
Green Street to Hilltop Avenue.
Bob Stagg of 908 Bonita addressed Council informing them he was the property
owner at the Beach and Bonita intersection where Beach Drive is currently closed. He
informed Council it was his assumption that Beach Drive had been permanently closed
by the City of McHenry when barricades had been installed to prohibit through traffic.
He also informed Council this intersection is currently used as a pedestrian access to
the park.
Jeff Hodgenson, also of Beach Drive, stated his pleasure with the resurfacing
of Beach Drive, but also expressed concerns with the opening of Beach Drive from
Green Street to Hilltop Avenue.
Alderman Baird explained plans for the resurfacing and reopening of Beach Drive
were discussed in light of the Bull Valley Road Bypass project. He suggested that the
Public Works Committee review the feasibility and placement of stop signs on Beach
Drive.
Debbie Harness of 3501 Beach Drive addressed Council stating her opposition
to the reopening of Beach Drive from Green Street to Hilltop Avenue, citing traffic
safety issues and noting a problem with vehicular speeders already exists.
Director of Public Works Batt suggested Beach Drive could be completely
eliminated from the City's 1997 Street Program and another street substituted in its
place. Council also discussed retaining Beach Drive as part of the 1997 City of
McHenry Streets Program, however, listing it as the final selection. This work
schedule would allow for additional time to consider the reopening and resurfacing
of Beach Drive.
It was the consensus of Council to retain Beach Drive as part of the City's 1997
Streets Program and to discuss the reopening and resurfacing of Beach Drive at a
Public Works Committee meeting to be scheduled within the next few weeks.
April 30, 1997 Page 7

Advance Paving of Fox Lake in the amount of $429,303.31 . Director Batt noted
Advance Paving had omitted the required Addendum, however, City Attorney McArdle
stated in a written opinion the omission of the Addendum was insignificant and the
bid should be awarded to Advance Paving of Fox Lake.
Alderman Locke initiated further discussion and suggested the 1997 Street
Maintenance Program be awarded to the next lowest bidder, Skokie Valley Asphalt of
Grayslake, Illinois as they had submitted a complete bid packet.
Motion by Lawson, seconded by Bates, to award the 1997 Street Maintenance
