Consideration of 2021 Honorary Street Sign Applications
Director Strange explained that the policy in place allows up to three approvals per year. If all of
the applications are deemed worthy, he recommends taking them in chronological order, and
allowing the last two submitted to be first in line next year. He is open to other suggestions from
the Committee.
The first application was to honor Mark Justen, and Brian Aalto was present to explain his
nomination. Mr. Aalto gave a rundown of the submitted application. Mark Justen was the owner
of a multigenerational business and the family has resided in McHenry since the 1890s. Mr. Aalto
listed many of Mr. Justen’s attributes and suggested that Municipal Drive be the street to bear
the honorary street sign.
The second application was to honor James Keevil, and Sue Low Meyer was present to explain
her nomination. In addition to information given on the application, Ms. Meyer detailed the story
of the murders in 1970 that Mr. Keevil helped solve and helped to detain the suspect. In addition
to his military service and service as a police officer, he also served as the communication
supervisor for the McHenry Police Department for 29 years. She suggested that a spot on
Riverside Drive would be an appropriate location for the honor.

The third application was to honor Kay Rial Bates, and Carl Vallianatos was present to explain his
nomination. He discussed her contribution to McHenry though her work with the McHenry Area
Chamber of Commerce. Her efforts have helped build businesses in McHenry and have made
area events such as Fiesta Days become premier festivals. A subcommittee of the Chamber felt
this would be an appropriate honor to coincide with her recent retirement. A downtown location
in the area of Riverside, Route 120, Green, Elm, or Waukeegan were thought to be appropriate
locations for the honor.
The fourth application was to honor Mike Linderman, and Geri Condon was present to explain
her nomination. She thanked the Committee and explained that all of today’s applicants are well
deserving. She was in a network group with Mr. Linderman and realized he was always quick to
volunteer and help out. He was constantly donating to organizations and always was the first to
sponsor community events. It is her opinion that sometimes these types of unsung heroes that
have always been there are not always recognized.
The fifth application was to honor Judy Walsh Smith, and her daughter Erin Smith was present to
explain her nomination. Ms. Smith just celebrated her 80th birthday and Erin believes this would
be the best way to honor her. She detailed her mom’s background all the way back from her
birth, to adopting two children, to her work as a community service officer for the Police
Department, and to her volunteer work she has done since her retirement. She explained that
she dedicated her life to serving McHenry and that people all over still recognize her for her
service and accomplishments.
There was a discussion by the Committee on how the five applications should be handled.
Alderman Glab was not in favor of recommending that all five applications be recognized with
honorary street signs this year. The policy states that there should only be three, and he would
like to choose three based on merit and not by the order that they were submitted. It was also
debated that five could be considered since this was an unusual year, and that this issue of an
excess of three applications being submitted hasn’t happened in recent memory. Since the most
that has been passed recently is two per year, the Committee could make an exception this year.
After further debate, it was agreed upon that the Committee would bring all five applications
before the Council and see how the entire Council would like to handle the matter. The Council
could decide which three to accept, or if they would like to change the policy to allow more. A
motion was made by Alderman Glab and seconded by Alderman Mihevc to present all five
Honorary Street Sign Applications to the full Council for consideration, and to approve up to
three as stated in the policy, or to have the Council as a whole make an exception or a change
to the policy for approving more than three Honorary Street Sign Applications. Roll call: Vote:

Discussion on Township Road District Tax Levy History
Director Strange explained that at the January committee meeting he was given direction to
research the history of the Township Road District levy and how it has worked. He researched
the levies from our two townships, how they have levied, the percentages, and changes in recent
history that would quantify the losses. Director Strange shared his screen to show the breakdown
and work through the math.
The first screen showed how they are levied and how they are similar to the City’s levy. They are
shown as a percentage based on assessments. The percentage is a function of the total amount
levied. The township road districts have two different levies that they can implement. The 007
levy is known as the Road & Bridge levy and the 009 is known as the Permanent Road levy. The
007 levy is collected within the corporate limits of the municipality and it is shared 50/50 between
the municipality and the township road district. The 009 levy has a higher maximum rate, and
they are not required to share that with municipalities.
There are two townships that share property within the City limits. The McHenry Township rates
have remained fairly consistent. Nunda Township has changed the way they levy and that has
cost the City of McHenry about $50,000 a year. Nunda is levying the same total amount, but they
have moved a lot of the levy from the 007, which they share with us, to 009, which they don’t
share with us. What they have done is technically not illegal, but it is obvious that this has costed
the City of McHenry a great deal of money and given more to Nunda Township.
Director Strange outlined three ways that we could move forward to try and to rectify the
situation. First, we could go to the townships and request that they levy a larger percentage as
road/bridge funds, which they share with us. That way we would get a bigger split of the overall
levy. Second, we could lobby with the State that we get a bigger percentage of share, or total
share, of the 007 levy by changing the legislation. Third, we could lobby with the State that they
allow for the 009 levy to be shared with us much like the 007 levy.
Alderman Glab explained that he has been watching this issue for five or six years now, and it is
amazing that the citizens of McHenry are subsidizing people who do not live in our city. If we
were to do a resolution to the townships, this would only be a request and would not have
anything that could be forced to be done. He believes the only remedy would be to have action
taken at the state level so that the law would require a change to get our tax dollars back to the
City. Alderman Mihevc agreed with Alderman Glab and believes this is the best solution to fix
our big problem. Alderman Santi also suggested that we would need to get many other
municipalities across the state on board with us to help gain momentum with our state leaders.

Terry Locke, a member of the public at the meeting, asked if there were any countermeasures
we could take to put pressure on the township districts. Director Strange explained that we don’t
have anything we could hold back or threaten them with to get them to change their levy
practices. We do have intergovernmental agreements with both townships, but they are
agreements that work both ways, and stopping those would cause a strain on the City of McHenry
as well.
Although no formal action was taken, it was agreed upon by the members of the Committee that
Director Strange would start working on the wording for a resolution that would adequately
explain the issue and could be used to lobby at the state level. He will share his work on the issue
before the next committee meeting that should be planned sometime in May. The hope is that
this would be ready for Council action at a meeting in June.
Veterans Park Resurfacing Project Update
Director Strange reported that the Veterans Park project came to the Public Works Committee
in January and then to the Council as a whole in February to move forward. He wanted to give
an update of the status of the project. Design work is being done in-house by Staff Engineer Greg
Gruen, and it is hopeful that bids can be done in May with construction taking place after Labor
Day and before the end of the construction season.
It was explained that parking on the north and west side of the park currently has angled parking,
and it is proposed to change that into perpendicular parking to add parking stalls. Director
Strange stated that there is ample space to do so and still meet depth requirements.
Alderman Santi questioned how many more spaces would be added, and if we are certain of the
project timeline. Director Strange anticipates that the project could be done within two months,
and he has already coordinated the schedule with Parks Director Bill Hobson. Starting after Labor
Day will get most of the big events from the summer taken care of while still being able to finish
before getting too late in the year.
Alderman Glab does not want to risk not having this project finished this year, and he would hope
events at Veterans Park could get moved if they cause an issue with the project timeline. He also
asked why we would not have perpendicular on all sides of the park to keep the parking
consistent. Director Strange explained that there is not enough room on the east side of the park
to have perpendicular parking. Although the east and west streets look similar, they do not
measure out the same. The crown of the road on the east is too close to the parking, and the
right of way lines to not match up the same to give the proper spacing for perpendicular parking.
Alderman Jeff Schaefer was present at the meeting, and although he is an Alderman for the City,
he was not present as a member of the Committee. Alderman Schaefer stated that he believes
most residents are happy with the repairs that are being done to the area, but he questioned
number of spots that will be available and if the setup will work appropriately. He worries that
perpendicular parking will make that street more difficult to navigate, and that certain

homeowners on the west side of the block could have an issue with traffic during large events
like the farmers market and the City bands. Committee members debated the pros and cons of
the types of parking spots and the way traffic could be handled during large events.
Based on his observations from the meeting and the tone of the discussions, Director Strange
decided that they would not make the suggested changes to the parking, and they would stick to
the angled parking for all sides of the park.
Staff Reports
Director Strange reported that the next committee meeting will be scheduled for an off Monday
in May, and that the 2022 road program will be discussed. Alderman Glab asked if there will be
any opportunity to deviate from the roads that have been chosen by staff. Director Strange
stated that the five-year program that was previously introduced will be scrapped, and
everything with a rating of 40 or below will be grouped together. The Committee could then
chose from options of those roads that are in the worst condition.
Alderman Glab asked about the status of Dartmoor Drive, and if it still had the opportunity to be
considered for a grant. The grant in question is one that is chosen by the McHenry County Council
of Mayors. Director Strange explained that the project is in a contingency for 2024, but there are
no guarantees that it would be chosen for the grant. It is possible to withdraw that road from
consideration and to spend the City’s funds on that road. He suggests that if it does not get
chosen in the next two years that we pull that road and just fix it ourselves. Alderman Glab asked
if he could see a list of roads that have been chosen ahead of Dartmoor, and Director Strange
said he would get a list of those to the committee.
Adjournment
A motion was made by Alderman Glab and seconded by Alderman Mihevc to adjourn the
meeting at 8 :54 p.m. Roll call: Vote: 3-ayes: Alderman Mihevc, Alderman Glab, Alderman Santi.

COMMITTEE AGENDA SUPPLEMENT
DATE: July 26, 2021
TO: Public Works Committee
FROM: Troy Strange, P.E., Director of Public Works
RE: Township Road District Tax Levy
ATT: Resolution Requesting Legislative Assistance
BACKGROUND: Staff is presenting a Resolution Requesting Legislative Assistance to increase the annual
distribution of Township Road District Tax Levies that is returned to Illinois Municipalities.
SUMMARY:
In Winter of 2021, staff was directed by the Public Works Committee to research the City’s history of
municipal distribution receipts of Township Road District Tax Levies. This request was made due to recent
adjustments of levy percentages by Nunda Township which have reduced the distributions received by
the City of McHenry. This history was prepared and presented at the March 22, 2021 Public Works
Committee Meeting along with a number of options the City could pursue to increase its share of the
Township Levies. The following options were presented for consideration:
1. Request that both Nunda Township and McHenry Township levy a larger percentage of their
overall levy as Road and Bridge funds. As is shown above, Nunda Township has reduced its Road
and Bridge levies dramatically in the past few years but McHenry Township has not. Should Nunda
restore its levy to its historical level of 0.1%, the City can expect to realize $50,000 additional
revenue per year. Neither of these Road and Bridge levies are currently set at the maximum level
of 0.165%. An increase to the maximum levy would increase revenues to the City of McHenry but
would also increase overall taxation for City residents.
2. Lobby for a change in the State Statutes to allow for a larger municipal share of the collected Road
and Bridge revenues. Right now municipal collections are capped at 50% of the Road and Bridge
funds collected within the Municipality. An increase of this percentage up to possibly 100%
distribution to municipalities would increase municipal revenues. This change will be extremely
difficult to implement without the broader support of a coalition of municipal agencies which
extends beyond McHenry County. This could reduce township revenues and ultimately result in
higher levies to make up for lost revenue.
3. Lobby for a change in the State Statutes to allow for municipal sharing of Permanent Road
Revenues. Any percentage sharing of this fund with municipal agencies would increase municipal
revenues but again could result in higher levies should townships attempt to recoup lost revenues.
Based upon Committee Discussion staff worked with the City Attorney to draft a resolution requesting an
amendment to 65 ILCS 5/6-501-507 which would increase the City’s share of all levies collected by the
Township Road Districts. Pursuant to discussion and direction received at the March 22, 2021 meeting,
this topic and the associated draft resolution are being brought back before the Committee for
consideration prior to advancing the resolution to the City Council for approval.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff is seeking a recommendation to bring the prepared resolution before the full City Council for
approval and submittal to the Illinois Legislature for consideration.
RESOLUTION NO.
A Resolution Requesting Legislative Assistance
City of McHenry, Illinois
WHEREAS, funding for Municipal street maintenance is extremely limited, while
capital and maintenance needs and costs for Municipal streets are high and continually increase;
WHEREAS, Illinois Township Road Districts currently levy taxes (Road/Bridge and
Permanent Road funds) on residents within incorporated Municipal limits for maintenance of
unincorporated roads; and
WHEREAS, Township Road Districts are required by Illinois Law, 65 ILCS 5/6-501-
507, et. seq., to share one half of Road/Bridge funds collected within incorporated Municipal
limits; however, the same law does not require sharing of Permanent Road funds with the
Municipality.

PUBLIC WORKS COMMITTEE
AGENDA SUPPLEMENT
DATE: July 26, 2021
TO: Public Works Committee
FROM: Troy Strange P.E., Director of Public Works
Greg Gruen P.E., Staff Engineer
RE: 2022 Road Program
ATT: Presentation (17 slides)
AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY:
Staff requests a positive recommendation from the Public Works Committee for the scope and
funding of the 2022 Road Program and to present the approved scope and proposed funding to
City Council for their approval.
BACKGROUND:
Staff is proposing a FY22/23 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) item that includes $4,000,000
for the 2022 Road Program. Staff is preliminarily estimating the cost of the resurfacing to be
approximately $375,000/mile. The locations for the work are based on an updated multi-year
plan which staff has recently completed and is based upon the Chicago Metropolitan Agency For
Planning (CMAP) grant funded pavement study completed in Summer of 2019. The project will
consist of paving 10.5 miles of local neighborhood streets. Work will consist of asphalt grinding
and resurfacing, concrete ADA ramp sidewalk improvements and limited curb and gutter repairs.
The extent of the asphalt removal will be based on the results of pavement cores to be cut upon
finalization of project locations. Public works maintenance staff will begin repairing manholes
and sewers within the project limits in anticipation of the project as soon as program locations
are finalized. Additionally, maintenance staff will begin “in-house” completion of sidewalk ADA
ramp upon finalization of project locations.
The City of McHenry is dedicated to providing the citizens, businesses and visitors of McHenry with the highest
quality of programs and services in a customer-oriented, efficient and fiscally responsible manner.
The project will be funded utilizing the following funding sources:
• $2,000,000 Regular Illinois Motor Fuel Tax
• $1,200,000 Rebuild Illinois Bond Funds
• $300,000 Municipal Retailer Motor Fuel Tax
• $500,000 Operating Capital (Street Division Budget)
This will be the largest Road Program in the history of the City of McHenry. This large sum is due
to carryover MFT balances from the 2021 program, anticipated revenues of both state and local
MFT as well as the City’s final distributions of the Rebuild Illinois Bond Funding distributions.
For the past FY21/22 Fiscal Year, a $2,000,000 total program was run with staff performing design
engineering and construction management “in-house” on all but $600,000 of this budgeted total.
The remaining $600,000 of construction was completed with the assistance of retained engineer
due to specific requirements of working with Rebuild Illinois Bond Funds. The in-house portion
of the project was completed at approximately $100,000/per mile lesser unit cost than the
consulted services portion of the project. Staff recommends again that the “in-house” portion
of the project be maximized in order to continue the City’s rate of production at a significantly
lesser unit cost. However, due to overall workload limitations given the size of the proposed
project budget, staff will need to retain the ability to consult assistance for portions of the
project.
This program year is a significant increase over the $2,000,000 annual budget that staff have
been targeting for the last few years. While this level of funding ($4,000,000 in Fiscal Year
2022/2023) is not permanently sustainable as there are rollover funds and one time bond
distributions included in the total, a $2,000,000 annual budget is sustainable by utilizing existing
annual revenue streams.
ANALYSIS:
Due to the increase in available funding for Fiscal Year 22/23, staff is recommending that the
identified 2022 and 2023 program years be completed in the 2022 Road Program. The
recommended locations are included in the attached presentation slides.
RECOMMENDATION:
Therefore, if Public Works Committee concurs with Staff’s recommendation, it is
recommended to present to full City Council the 2022 Road Program (2022 & 2023 years) as
presented and with any specific additions or deletions as directed by the Committee for
authorization to proceed with engineering and bidding. It is further recommended to allow
