Attorney Dan Curran of Campion, Curran, Rausch, Gummerson & Dunlap
addressed Council outlining Mr. Lang's desire to legally separate his property from the

Agreement and entering into a Developer's Agreement reclassifying the property. Mr.

EASEMENT AND VACATION OF A PORTION OF HILL STREET RIGHT-OF-WAY - C &
A LEASING CORPORATION
Mayor Althoff iterated at the July 29, 2002 regular Council meeting Staff was
directed to further investigate drainage matters for the proposed development of C & A
Leasing's outside recreational vehicle storage facility, specifically:
• the destination of storm water runoff from the site; and
• whether or not a higher standard should be required due to off-site flooding.
In attendance were Allen Miller, Applicant and his attorney, Thomas Zanck of
Militello, Zanck and Coen.
Director of Community Development Napolitano stated at council's request, Staff
and the City Engineers met to determine the flow of drainage from the site into the
Lakeland Park drainage ditch. It was determined a good solution would be to reduce the
release rate required by half of the normal, from 1.0 to .5. This reduction would facilitate ,
the release of water off the site over an eighteen-hour period rather than an eight-hour
period. To effectuate the release rate in half, to 0.5 cfs, the proposed detention pond
would need to be increased by 25%. The impact downstream is lessened with a longer
period of release. Director Napolitano noted language has been included in the
August 19 2002
Page 11
Annexation Agreement at Section VIII to require a 0.5 cis release rate for storm water.
Director Napolitano stated with the revision at Section VIII, Staff recommends approval of
the ordinances.
Responding to Mayor Althoff s inquiry regarding increasing the size of the detention
pond by 25%, Mr. Miller stated he would be willing to increase the size by 50%.
Motion by Bolger, seconded by Glab, to approve an ordinance authorizing the
Mayor and the City Clerk's execution of an Annexation Agreement with C & A Leasing,
subject to language revisions at Section VIII of the Annexation Agreement, increasing the
capacity of the detention pond by 50%

Commission informed Staff of a grant program available from the State of Illinois, entitled a
Heritage Grant. He noted a grant monies obtained through this program could be utilized
to underwrite the repair and restoration of landmark or historic structures.
Director Napolitano stated the Landmark Commission is requesting Council's
approval to apply for a Heritage Grant, which would be used for the repair and restoration
of the silo on the main barn at the Petersen Farmstead. Director Napolitano noted the
Petersen Farmstead is the first official landmark under the City's Historic Preservation
Ordinance. A new roof was installed on the barn in 1999; however, the silo is deteriorating
and is in need of repair to prevent further decay and degeneration.
Director Napolitano stated the cost for repair and restoration of the silo is currently
being assessed, noting the maximum grant available through the Grant Program is
$25,000 and a 40% local match is required. The local match can be in the form of in-kind
services or material, or a monetary contribution. The deadline for submission of the
application is August 30, 2002. Director Napolitano informed Council the repairs would not
be addressed until fiscal year 2003/2004.
Motion by Glab, seconded Murgatroyd, to direct Staff to prepare the necessary
paperwork to submit an application for a Heritage Grant for the repair and restoration of

CONTINUED DISCUSSION: MEYER MATERIAL ANNEXATION
Mayor Althoff announced the following items; requiring additional follow-up and/or
clarification, relative to the Meyer Material Annexation would be discussed:
• The specifics of the new air quality study, which is to include testing for silica dust;
• Language to be included in the Agreement requiring Applicant to meet Illinois
Environmental Protection Agency ("IEPX) standards;
• Language to be included in the Agreement regarding storm water management and
prohibiting farming within the 160-acre perimeter setback area on the property; and
• Language to be included in the Agreement requiring the property be developed _
residentially within one year following the conclusion of the mining of the 157-acres.
Assistant Administrator Lockerby outlined the following options for a new air quality
study at Valley View School:
Option 1. SECOR has proposed.
August 19 2002
Page 13
o Testing of particulate matter over a 24-hour period
o Testing silica dust over an 8-hour period (6:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.)
o Three additional testing locations on the school site (2 on the west
side and one on the south side)
o One test location set up at City Hall for comparison purposes
o Wind speed and direction recorded periodically through sampling
process
Option 2. Replica of 1997 Study.
o Testing of particulate matter over a 24-hour period
o Testing silica dust over five 8-hour periods (6:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.)
o Four testing locations on the school site
Assistant Administrator Lockerby noted Staff has reviewed the options offered and
suggests two additional items for consideration:
Option 3. SECOR Expanded Study. Perform the study as outlined in Option 1, and
expand particulate matter testing to five 24-hour periods.
Option 4. District 15 Modified. Perform the study as outlined in Option 2, but
include a comparison study at City Hall location and record wind speed and direction
periodically throughout the sampling period.
Aldermen Low, Murgatroyd and Wimmer opined Option 1 was acceptable with the
expansion of testing of particulate matter extended to three 24-hour periods. Lengthy
discussion ensued regarding the merits of each option and wind direction.
Responding to Alderman Wimmer's inquiry Mr. Miller stated Meyer Material was
mining within 100 feet of the Valley View School in 1997 when the initial testing occurred.
Mr. Fred Cook, a resident of 2410 N. Martin Road, opined McCORE's (McHenry
County Citizens concerned for an Organized and Responsible Environment) concern for a
baseline reading at Valley View School and suggested the following:
o The test be based on wind direction out of the west toward the southwest for a 24-
hour period
o Recommended the test be performed by a company other than SECOR
o Recommended the test be performed for a two-day period, not necessarily
consecutive
Director Napolitano, responding to an inquiry, noted SECOR was the only company,
on the list provided by School District 15, who responded to his calls.
Daniel J. Goodwin, representing SECOR, stated the evaluation is performed by
'�-- SECOR, but an independent laboratory accredited by the American Industrial Hygiene
Association performs the analysis.
August 19 2002
Page 14
Motion by Glab, seconded by Low, to approve the following:
o Testing of particulate matter, over a 24-hour period, with the proposed wind
direction recorded periodically through the sampling process when the wind is
blowing in a west to southwest direction
o Testing silica dust over an 8-hour period (6:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.)
o Three additional testing locations on the school site (2 on the west side and one on
the south side) in addition to the four previous locations
o One test location set up at City Hall for comparison purposes
Voting Aye: Bolger, Glab, Low, Murgatroyd, Wimmer
Voting Nay: None.
Absent: None.
Motion carried.
Dave Currier, a resident of Cherry Hill Court, requested SECOR be required to
follow approved scientific procedures regarding the control unit. Mayor Althoff assured Mr.
Currier approved scientific procedures would be followed.
Mayor Althoff suggested Council review additional items regarding the Annexation
Agreement. The following items were generally reviewed. The Mayor stated due to the _.
lateness of the hour detailed discussion would take place at the next regular Council
meeting:
1. Future Expansions. Meyer Material has agreed to language in the Agreement
prohibiting future expansions of their mining operations to the east, north or west.
2. Annexation Fee. Staff is directed to research a greater annexation fee be collected
for the subject property than the current proposed rate of 3.75 cents per ton mined.

adequate.
4. Landscaping. Open issue, discussion to continue.
