REQUEST FOR FENCE VARIANCE — KATHLEEN AND KAREN ALFORD 1901 N
RIVERSIDE DRIVE
Director of Community Development Napolitano informed Council a request has
been received from Kathleen and Karen Alford, owners of the property located at 1901
North Riverside Drive, for a variance to allow the installation of a six-foot high, red cedar
scalloped fence along the Riverside Drive property line. —'
Director Napolitano stated the Alford's have a double frontage lot with frontage
along both Riverside Drive and Kennedy Drive. The yard adjacent to Riverside Drive is
the back of their lot. Applicants would like to enclose a greater portion of their yard for
May 3, 2004
Page 3
additional privacy and security. The City of McHenry's fence regulations state that a fence
abutting a street right-of-way must be setback 30' from the right-of-way line. It is for this
_. reason a variance is being sought.
Staff indicated the subject property slopes up towards the street and allowing a
fence in this area would not likely impact vehicular or pedestrian sight lines. Director
Napolitano opined allowing the fence as proposed would be appropriate and is consistent
with previous variances granted for properties abutting busy roads.
Motion by Condon, seconded by Peterson, to approve a variance allowing a 6-foot
red cedar scalloped fence along the Riverside Drive property line at the property located at
1901 N. Riverside Drive.
Voting Aye: Glab, Low, Murgatroyd, Wimmer, Peterson, Condon.
Voting Nay: None.
Absent: Bolger.
Motion carried.
REQUEST FOR FENCE VARIANCE— ED SZYMCZAK, 1827 REDWOOD LANE
Director Napolitano informed Council that a request was received from Ed
Szymczak, who resides at 1827 Redwood Lane, for a variance to permit the installation of
a 6-foot high, red cedar scalloped fence along his property line on McCullum Lake Road.
Director Napolitano noted that Mr. Szymczak has a double frontage lot with frontage on
both Redwood Lane and McCullum Lake Road. The yard adjacent to McCullum Lake
Road is the back of Mr. Szymczak's lot.
Director Napolitano stated the City's fence regulations state that a fence abutting a
street right-of-way must be setback 30' from the right-of-way line. Director Napolitano
indicated applicant would like to enclose a greater portion of his yard and would appreciate

Road, which also was granted a variance.
Motion by Murgatroyd, seconded by Wimmer, to approve a variance allowing a 6-
foot red cedar scalloped fence along the McCullum Lake Road property line at the property
located at 1827 Redwood Lane, to include a jog in the fence to accommodate existing
utility boxes.
Voting Aye: Glab, Low, Murgatroyd, Wimmer, Peterson, Condon.
Voting Nay: None.
Absent: Bolger.
Motion carried.
,.� REQUEST TOR MINOR VARIANCE — JOHN AND PAULINE WARNER, 5102 MALIBU
COURT
Director Napolitano stated applicants, John and Pauline Warner, residents at 5102
May 3, 2004
Page 4
Malibu Court, are requesting a variance to exceed the 1,000 square foot maximum size for
a detached garage. Mr. Warner is proposing to construct a 1,200 square foot detached
garage for the purpose of storing an automobile and recreation vehicles.
Director Napolitano indicated the variance is minimal and will have no impact on the
character or appearance of the area. Applicant is unable to expand the existing attached
garage due to the side yard set back requirements and also due to the configuration of the
lot. Director Napolitano stated the property is screened by a fence with landscaping and
views of the new detached garage would be minimized.
Director Napolitano stated the Planning and Zoning Commission at a Public Hearing
held on April 14, 2004 unanimously recommended approval to exceed the maximum
allowable square footage from 1,000 square feet to 1,200 square feet for a detached
garage on the property located at 5102 Malibu Court.
Alderman Glab expressed concern with the amount of hard surface covered on a
single lot relative to drainage. A brief discussion ensued.
Motion by Wimmer, seconded by Condon, to accept the recommendation of the
Planning and Zoning Commission and to approve an ordinance granting a variance to
allow the construction of a 1,200 square foot detached garage on the property located at
5102 Malibu Court. --
Voting Aye: Glab, Low, Murgatroyd, Wimmer, Peterson, Condon.
Voting Nay: None.
Absent: Bolger.
Motion carried.
RE UEST FOR TEMPORARY USE PERMIT TO ALLOW SEASONAL LANDSCAPE
WASTE TRANSFER FACILITY — MARENGO DISPOSAL COMPANY 1819 DOT
STREET
Director Napolitano informed Council that Marengo Disposal is requesting a
temporary use permit to allow a landscape waste transfer facility at the Meyer Material
gravel pit quarry, located at 1819 Dot Street. The purpose of the facility is to
accommodate 24-hour temporary storage of compost materials, leaves and yard waste,
during the spring and fall leaf collection program throughout the City of McHenry. The
proposed facility would assist Marengo Disposal in operating the City's leaf collection
program more efficiently by eliminating the hauling of the compost to a permanent facility
in Rockford each time a truck has reached capacity.
Director Napolitano indicated the transfer area would be comprised of
approximately two acres and located in the interior of the gravel pit. The proposed hours _
of operation are from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. Approximately three
to twelve vacuum trucks per day are proposed to enter and exit the temporary facility, and l
one to four semi-trailer trucks would haul the waste to the Rockford facility during each 24-
hour period.
May 3, 2004
Page 5
Director Napolitano informed Council storm water run off would be addressed via
stormwater detention for the duration of the temporary use. He noted the facility would be
in operation from the beginning of April through the middle of July and from the beginning
of September through the middle of November. Marengo Disposal is required to obtain an
operating permit from the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency ([EPA) for the facility
and on-site inspections would be performed by the McHenry County Department of Health.
Responding to City Attorney McArdle's inquiry regarding results of the site hearing,
Eric DeBoer stated no site hearing was required because the waste would be removed
within a 24-hour period.
Following a brief discussion, Mr. DeBoer assured Council only yard waste from City
of McHenry residents would be stored at the facility.
Director Napolitano, responding by an inquiry by Alderman Glab, indicated Staff
would conduct inspections in accordance with instructions received from Council.
Alderman Murgatroyd opined the facility has the potential to be a positive
advantage to City of McHenry residents.
Alderman Condon indicated she would like the facility utilized for landscape waste
transfer belonging to City residents only and should Marengo, at some future date, decide
to use the facility for landscape waste belonging to other municipalities, the use should
,..' require approval of Council. Alderman Condon suggested the use be granted initially for
the fall season only to ascertain the program's success.
Alderman Glab stated he would encourage Staff to inspect the facility following each
season.
Motion by Glab, seconded by Wimmer, to approve the temporary use permit to allow
a seasonal landscape waste transfer facility to Marengo Disposal Company on the
property located at 1819 Dot Street, for a period of one year, from September to mid-
December, for City of McHenry residents yard waste only.
Voting Aye: Glab, Low, Murgatroyd, Wimmer, Peterson, Condon.

SYSTEM
Director of Public Works Marcinko reiterated that Council at the July 7, 2003
Regular City Council meeting approved the request to advertise for bids for the
.� construction of the Lakewood Road Low Pressure Sewer System. The bids were opened
on April 13, 2004 and the apparent low bidder was Thelen Sand & Gravel, Inc.
May 3, 2004
Page 6
Director Marcinko noted that due to the magnitude of the project and the complexity
surrounding the Community Development Block Grant submittals, IT IS Staffs
recommendation to hire Baxter and Woodman for the construction related services. The
services provided by Baxter and Woodman would include consultation and the customary
engineering and construction-related services for the period from bid opening to the
original construction contract final completions date. The agreement would also include the
service of a part-time on-site Resident Project Representative to observe the contractor's
work and assure it conforms to the final design documents.

REQUEST TO WAIVE ALL BID REQUIREMENTS AND NEGOTIATE FOR
CONSTRUCTION SERVICES RELATING TO LAKEWOOD ROAD LOW PRESSURE
SEWER SYSTEM — THELEN SAND AND GRAVEL
Director Marcinko informed Council that at the July 7, 2004 Regular City Council
meeting Council approved the request to advertise for bids for the construction of the
Lakewood Road Low Pressure Sewer System. Thelen Sand and Gravel, Inc. of Antioch,
Illinois was the apparent low bidder in the amount of$147,002.00.
Thelen Sand and Gravel has contacted the City with a request to rescind their bid
due to an error in the unit price of pavement removal, 11-inch depth. Due to a
typographical error, the bid indicated $1.30 per square yard as opposed to $11.30 per
square yard, resulting in a miscalculation of $32,500. Director Marcinko noted that by
honoring the intended price Thelen Sand and Gravel, Inc. would still be the apparent low
bidder. Staff recommends rejecting all bids and negotiating up to $179,502 for
construction of the project. Director Marcinko informed Council Gluth Bros. Construction,
Inc. was the second lowest bidder at $189,955.50.

ENGINEERING SERVICES AGREEMENT FOR REVIEW AND RESTRUCTURE OF
CAPITAL DEVELOPMENT FEES — BAXTER AND WOODMAN
City Administrator Maxeiner informed Council that on March 1, 2004, the Finance
and Personnel Committee reviewed an analysis conducted by Staff suggesting current
capital development fees are not adequate to fully fund the expansion of water and
wastewater utilities to accommodate new growth. He noted the fees for water were last
examined in 1997 and sewer fees were last examined in 1999.
City Administrator Maxeiner stated that in addition to water and sewer capital
development fees, some municipalities have instituted other fees for the expansion or
replacement of infrastructure or facilities due to the growth of population. Fees dedicated
for the expansion of city halls, police stations, public works facilities and stormwater
drainage systems have been established in other communities. Staff would like to explore
the feasibility of utilizing these mechanisms to address the needs of the City, which have
been exacerbated by population growth.
City Administrator Maxeiner informed Council that Baxter and Woodman has
presented an engineering services agreement, which would provide for updating current
—" capital development fees, as well as identifying additional fees that may be available to the
City. Staff requests authorization to enter into an engineering services agreement with
Baxter and Woodman, in the amount of$6,100, for a capital development fee study.
Alderman Murgatroyd opined it is important to the City that fees are kept current.
Responding to Alderman Glab's inquiry, City Engineer Carl Moon of Baxter and
Woodman, stated the study would be completed in sixty to ninety days.
Motion by Murgatroyd, seconded by Peterson, to approve an Engineering Services
Agreement with Baxter and Woodman, to update water and sewer Capital Development
Fees and to investigate the feasibility of establishing other Capital Development Fees for
other municipal facilities and infrastructure, in an amount not to exceed $6,100,
Voting Aye: Glab, Low, Murgatroyd, Wimmer, Peterson, Condon.
Voting Nay: None.
Absent: Bolger.
Motion carried.
FINANCIAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH FINANCIAUBOND ADVISOR — SPEER
FINANCIAL. INC.
ti Director of Finance Kline reiterated to Council that during budget deliberations Staff
recommended hiring a new financial/bond advisor to:
0 Identify existing opportunities for refinancing current debt; and
May 3, 2004
Page 8
• To begin preparations for the issuance of new debt to finance capital improvements.
Staff has interviewed five firms specializing in the services the City seeks:
1. Speer Financial, Chicago
2. Kane & McKenna Capital, Inc., Chicago
3. LaSalle ABN AMRO Financial Services, Chicago
4. Harris Bank, Geneva; and
5. Public Finance Resource, Glenview.
Director Kline indicated that while all of the firms interviewed have the experience
and expertise required Speer Financial has the largest municipal client base and the
widest breadth of experience. Additionally, Director Kline noted Speer Financial has
significant experience in Tax Increment Financing bonds.
Director Kline stated the role of the financial advisor includes preparation of a
financial plan with alternative maturity schedules to assist in the decision making process,
recommendations as to terms of the bonds and redemption features, recommendations as
to use of competitive (public) sales versus negotiated sales or private placement, and
assistance in setting the time and manner of offer for the bond sale.
Director Kline informed Council that Speer Financial does not underwrite, purchase
or sell bonds; nor is Speer Financial affiliated with any bank, underwriter or investing ,
institution. She stated that Speer's fee is dependent upon the sale of bonds. The fee for
each sale is based upon the par amount of securities payable upon receipt of proceeds.
The fee structure is a flat $4,000 plus % of 1% of municipal securities issued in excess of
$1,000,000. Director Kline noted these rates are comparable to the other firms interviewed
and the rates paid to the City's prior advisor.
Staff recommends the selection of Speer Financial, Chicago as the financial/bond
advisor to the City of McHenry, based upon experience, client base and analytical
presentation.
Alderman Murgatroyd opined it is important the City obtains the best rates possible,
which it appears this firm has the experience to facilitate.
Motion by Murgatroyd, seconded by Wimmer, to authorize the Mayor and the City
Clerk to execute the necessary documents to enter into a contract with Speer Financial,
Inc. as financial bond advisor.
Voting Aye: Glab, Low, Murgatroyd, Wimmer, Peterson, Condon.
Voting Nay: None.
Absent: Bolger.

CENTRAL WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT EXCESS FLOW TANK
City Administrator Maxeiner stated that at the January 12, 2004 Capital
Improvement Plan (CIP) Workshop meeting a Long Range Planning Report was presented
May 3, 2004
Page 9
by Baxter and Woodman detailing their analysis on the feasibility of abandoning the
Central Wastewater Treatment Plant.
City Administrator Maxeiner reiterated that the analysis suggested two main options
were available:
• Upgrade and renovate the Central Plant and continue the operation of the Central
Plant for the foreseeable future; or
• Upgrade and renovate the Central Plant for a planned abandonment in 20 years.
Immediate abandonment of the Central Plant was determined unrealistic
operationally. Both options require significant renovation of the Central Plant but address
excess flow differently. A long-term commitment to the Central Plant could address excess
flow on site, while a planned abandonment would require transporting excess flows via a
force/gravity main to the South Plant.
Direction from Council at the January 12, 2004 meeting was to proceed with
planning for upgrades and renovations necessary to keep the Central Plant open for at
least 20 years. However, a decision regarding the operation of the Plant beyond 20 years,
or how to address excess flow, was deferred to a later date. City Administrator Maxeiner
stated engineering has progressed to the point where a decision is required on how the
excess flows are going to be handled.
City Administrator noted that initially Baxter and Woodman's analysis indicated five
--' different options, two of which were immediately eliminated leaving the following:
• Alternative A: Maintaining the status quo. This option would require immediate
improvements at the Central Plant for renovation and the implementation of a
denitrification process. Excess flow would be addressed through the installation of
holding tanks at the Central Plant. This option would also require, at some future
point, the construction of conveyance from the Central Plant to the South Plant to
handle increased volumes generated by growth in the Central Plant service area, as
well as additional capacity at the South Plant to accommodate any future growth.
The cost for the status quo is an initial outlay of approximately $15 million followed
by an expense of approximately $20 million (2004 dollars) at some future point
dictated by growth.
• Alternative D: This option would require installation of excess flow tanks at the
Central Plant immediately, which would be abandoned and replaced at the South
Plant in 20 years. Current costs are the same as Alternative A, an initial outlay of
$15 million, but increase to approximately $40 million for future costs. Some return
would be provided from the sale of the marina and Central Plant property.
Additionally, conversion of the property to private use would generate property
taxes, and removal of the Plant would have an unquantifiable impact upon the
downtown.
• Alternative E: This alternative addressed planned obsolescence of the Central
Plant in 20 years, but would require a conveyance pipe between the two Plants now
May 3, 2004
Page 10
to handle excess flow. The immediate cost to address the excess flow would
require approximately $9.0 million for conveyance and $4.0 million for excess flow
tanks at the South Plant. The City would need to replace the lost capacity of the
Central Plant within 20 years, at an, estimated cost of $25.5 million in current
dollars. Again, these costs are partially offset by future tax receipts, as well as the
impact realized with the removal of the Central Plant from the downtown area.
City Administrator Maxeiner noted that any of the alternatives, including continuing
with the current arrangement, requires a significant capital outlay now and in the future.
Staff requests Council identify which, if any, of the three alternatives best serves the needs
of the City of McHenry. He suggested that if Council has an interest in pursuing
Alternative E, the newly appointed financial advisor should be enlisted to prepare a
financing plan in an effort to ascertain which of the alternatives addresses the City's
needs; and Baxter and Woodman should prepare engineering service agreements for the
excess flow portion of the project for both Alternative A and Alternative E. He noted once
the financial analysis was complete, Council would be in a position to make a decision
regarding the future of the Plant, and to provide direction to Baxter and Woodman
regarding how to address excess flow.
Mayor Low stated she would like more facts, encouraging an investigation of both
Alternative A and Alternative E for debt service schedules and funding plans. A brief
discussion ensued. --
Motion by Murgatroyd, seconded by Condon, to direct Staff to have the newly
appointed financial advisor, Speer Financial, Inc., prepare debt service schedules and
funding plans for both Alternative A and Alternative E.
