REQUEST FOR SETBACK, PARKING AND BUILDING CODE VARIANCES; CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR A RESTAURANT SERVING ALCOHOLIC _BEVERAGES—921 NORTH FRONT STREET In attendance were Attorney Steven Cuda, Applicant Jim Pappas., and Architect Mike Coan. Director of Community Development Napolitano summarized the Applicant's request, noting Mr. Pappas is seeking the following for his property located at 921 North Front Street: 1. Variance granting a reduction in the required number of parking spaces on the premises for a restaurant use; 2. Variance to allow a reduced setback for the building and addition and a conditional use permit to allow a restaurant serving alcoholic beverages on the site; 3. Building Code Variance to allow vinyl siding on the building which would house the restaurant. October 30, 2006 Page 3 Director Napolitano stated the Planning and Zoning Commission, at a Public Hearing held on July 6, 2006 and continued on August 3, 2006, heard testimony regarding the Applicant's requests. The Commission, after consideration of the testimony, voted to: 1. deny the requested parking variance; 2. approve the requested building setback variance; 3. approve the requested conditional use permit to allow the operation of a restaurant serving alcoholic beverages. Director Napolitano noted that following the Public Hearing, the Applicant has also requested a variance from the Building Code which would allow vinyl siding to be installed on the exterior of the restaurant. Director Napolitano stated Staff supports the parking variance, the setback variance and conditional use permit. However, Staff believes the Applicant should conform to the Building Code and install aluminum siding on the building in order to preserve the two-hour fire rating standard of the building. Director Napolitano also noted as the Planning and Zoning Commission denied the requested'parking variance, Council must vote by a 2/3 majority (5 of 7 votes) to override the denial. Attorney Cuda addressed Council stating the Applicant has done everything possible to address the parking issue. The Applicant has even sought cross access parking agreements with neighboring businesses. Attorney Cuda noted the Applicant is attempting to participate in the redevelopment of an older part of town. The Applicant is requesting Council concede regarding the parking variance issue. Alderman Murgatroyd inquired where employees would park. Mr. Pappas responded employees would park on the site. Responding to further inquiry, Mr. Pappas stated the apartment above the restaurant has three bedrooms. Director Napolitano stated no more than six persons would be living in the apartment. Alderman Wimmer stated he had no issue with the parking variance being granted. Alderman Peterson opined there could be an issue due to the challenge of the John Street encroachment and on-street parking. Alderman Condon stated the parking variance issue is a difficult decision. Council needs to weigh the benefit of filling a vacant building versus the constraints of inadequate parking. Alderman Condon stated she supports doing all that is possible to facilitate a new venture in the community. However, she does have concerns with congestion on John street. Alderman Santi concurred with Alderman Condon. Parking is a concern. John Street congestion is also a concern. He did state, however, the site plan and architectural drawings indicate improvement of the site. Alderman Santi stated he supports Mr. Pappas' willingness to improve the area. October 30, 2006 Page 4 Alderman Glab stated he has issues with the parking variance. He opined the City would end up having to pay for additional parking if Council continues to approve parking variances. He further stated it should be up to the business owner to comply with parking regulations. Parking has always been an issue for downtown businesses. Alderman Schaefer inquired if there are currently 26 parking spaces on the premises. Director Napolitano responded once the building addition is completed there would be 26 spaces on the site. Alderman Schaefer stated he also has a problem with John Street congestion. He recognized that the road is in need of repair. He noted he has some issues with the parking variance, however, he would like to see downtown revitalization occur. Mayor Low stated the building has been in a state of disrepair for a long time. She expressed her support of downtown revitalization. Alderman Murgatroyd inquired if trucks would enter John Street from Route 31 to make deliveries. Mr. Pappas acknowledged that was correct. Deliveries would be made early in the morning. Responding to further inquiry, director Napolitano stated there was no shortage of parking while the last tenant rented the buildings on the property. Alderman Murgatroyd inquired as to the Main Street Sub-Area and inquired if this property would be included in that plan area. Director Napolitano responded the boundary of the Main Street Sub Area has not been finalized yet. Alderman Glab reiterated his concerns regarding the lack of parking for the facility. City Administrator Maxeiner, responding to concerns expressed regarding the parking shortage in the area, noted the property to the north is zoned C4 Downtown Commercial, which has no parking requirements. City Administrator Maxeiner stated Council must decide if the redevelopment of the property is a priority or if potential parking issues should take precedence. A lengthy discussion ensued. Motion by Murgatroyd, seconded by Santi, to take into consideration the Planning and Zoning Commission's recommendation for denial, but to approve an ordinance granting a parking variance for the property located at 921 North Front Street to allow a parking space reduction from 83 to 26 parking spaces on the premises. Voting Aye: Santi, Schaefer, Murgatroyd, Wimmer, Condon. Voting Nay: Glab, Peterson. Absent: None. Motion carried. Director Napolitano noted the second matter for Council consideration regarding this property is an ordinance allowing a setback variance and granting a conditional use permit to allow a restaurant serving alcoholic beverages. Director Napolitano stated the Applicant intends to have a service bar only on the premises. October 30, 2006 Page 5 Motion by Santi, seconded by Condon, to accept the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Commission, to pass an ordinance allowing a setback variance and granting a conditional use permit to allow a restaurant serving alcoholic beverages on the property located at 921 North Front Street. Voting.Aye: Santi, Schaefer, Murgatroyd, Wimmer, Peterson, Condon. Voting Nay: Glab. Absent: None. Motion carried. Director Napolitano noted the final request before Council this evening regarding this property is a request for a variance from the Building Code which requires the installation of aluminum siding on the exterior of the building. The Applicant is seeking a variance to allow the installation of vinyl siding. Alderman Murgatroyd noted this is a safety issue which should be addressed. Alderman Wimmer concurred with Alderman Murgatroyd. Alderman Wimmer inquired why there is a difference-in the building code regarding commercial and residential structures as far as siding is concerned. Director Napolitano explained the difference is the potential uses which are permitted in the commercial district. Alderman Peterson stated he regrets the burden on the owner, but agrees with Staff in that aluminum siding should be required. Aldermen Condon, Santi, and Schaefer concurred. Motion by Murgatroyd, seconded by Wimmer, to approve the request for variance from the building code which requires aluminum siding on the building located at 921 North Front Street. Voting Aye: None. Voting Nay: Santi, Glab, Schaefer, Murgatroyd, Wimmer, Peterson, Condon. Absent: None. Motion failed. Mayor Low noted that former Mayor Cuda commissioned the Millennium Quilt which now hangs in the Municipal Center Atrium. INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT FOR PURCHASE OF SNOW AND ICE CONTROL SALT WITH VILLAGE OF PRAIRIE GROVE City Administrator Maxeiner stated Staff had been approached by the Village of Prairie Grove to assist in providing them with salt for snow and ice control for the 2006- 2007 winter season. An intergovernmental agreement has been prepared to facilitate the request. Salt would be purchased through the State Procurement Program and stored at the City's salt storage facility. Alderman Condon expressed her support of cooperation with other municipalities. October 30, 2006 Page 6 Alderman Glab stated the City should be reimbursed for man-hours involved in loading the salt. Alderman Murgatroyd concurred with Alderman Glab. Motion by Condon, seconded by Wimmer, to accept Staffs recommendation to enter into an Intergovernmental Agreement with the Village of Prairie Grove for the purchase and storage of snow and ice control salt for the 2006-2007 winter season.

The agencies are in the process of updating the Flood Plain Maps used to determine flood insurance rates for communities. As part of the process, the City is required to update its current Flood Plain Regulations found in Chapter 8 of the Municipal Code. The ordinance before Council for consideration this evening revised the Code as requested. Director Napolitano noted further amendments could follow once the County updates their code. Alderman Peterson inquired when the maps would be completed. Director Napolitano responded the maps are finished and will soon be on FEMA's website. Motion by Peterson, seconded by Condon, to accept Staffs recommendation to pass an ordinance revising Municipal Code Chapter 8, Flood Plain Regulations to conform to the requirements of FEMA and IDNR.

Letter from Javier Costantino dated 11/3/06 2. Location Map 3. Plat of Survey 4. Photos of Site STAFF RECOMMENDATION:To approve a variance to allow a 42"high ornamental iron fence in the Waukegan Road front yard at 3802 Waukegan Road. Background/Request A letter was received from Javier Costantino, owner of 3802 Waukegan Road. Mr. Costantino is requesting a variance to allow a 42" high ornamental iron fence in the front yard of his property. The fence is located along the east property line,adjacent to the driveway,and would extend approximately 16 feet into the required front yard. The City's fence regulations state that any fence abutting a street right- of-way, except split rail, must be setback 30' from the right-of-way line and no higher than 42". Mr. Costantino inadvertently installed this fence because he was under the impression that the City allowed both split rail and ornamental iron fences in the front yard. Analysis Staff has reviewed the request and has no concerns with the proposed fence. The applicant has cited several valid reasons for needing this fence. Placing the fence along the property line will provide screening and security for the applicant and is consistent with the character of traditional downtown areas, where wrought iron and picket fences were the norm in past years. The Council previously approved variances for ornamental iron fences at 3803 Waukegan (the Count's House) and 1002 Third Street. Therefore, Staff recommends that the requested variance be approved. 11/03/2006 11:23 3124546182 PAGE 01/01 Javier Costantino From: Javier Costantino Sent: Friday, November 03,2006 10:05 AM To: 'jnapolitano@ci.mchenry.il.us' Subject: 3802 W.Waukegan Rd. Fence variance Dear Joe, I was instructed by Elizabeth Zeller that you would present this variance directly to the city counsil at the November 13. meeting. 1 erected a new 6'tall board on board cedar fence with steel posts on my east 8 west side property lines for 3 reasons; 1) To screen my house from the blighted vacant property east of me,which i brought to your attention over the summer. Some effort was made to keep the lawn mowed but this house is still in disrepair and remains, since May 2006, unoccupied. 1 have also chased some teenagers out who I caught"partying"in the crawl space which is accessible from the backyard. After all the time and effort I have put into remodeling my home I do want this eyesore detracting from the value of my property and the 6'fence does a very good job of screening this. 2) My neighbor to the west of me,along with myself,have had a problems with vagrants cutting thru our yards to get to Route 120 instead of using the public walks_ I was given quite a scare last summer when I was working in my garage one night and a intoxicated person barged in on me looking for"train fare"even though the trains stopped running hours before. I live by myself so my personal safety and well being is extremely Important to me. 3) 1 wanted to create a Bence of place,define the boundries of the site, and increase the curb appeal. The fence is the last item of a major summer project which included;a new concrete driveway with California finish, brick paver entrance to front door, and replaced steel pole driveway lights with masonry piers. Here is the issue at hand,even though this fence Is set on my side property line 1 was told during the permit review phase that the portion of fence that is in the front yard setback could not be 6'tall nor solid. i still do not understand this logic, since a fence should not be subjected to the setback limits established for a permanent structure. I did not want to challenge the code reviewer, however I was told at your office that this portion could be split rail wood or ornamental iron. I elected to do this portion in iron since I prefer this aestheticly over split wood railing. The ornamental iron fence i installed meets the height requirements established for a split rail wood fence set on the front or corner side lot lines per the City's fence construction guidelines. When Gary came to do the final Inspection on October 20, he told me the fence looks great but he could not sign-off because my gates where not yet installed on the west side,and the end portion on the east side was not split rail wood, however he would take a photo and discuss this iron fence with the staff. I completed the gate installation and called for another final on the 30th. Gary came back on the 31 s',his only comment being the aforementioned portion of iron fence. I have spent quite a bit of time and money on all the exterior sitework, as you will note, if you drive by my property. The fence is the last detail that ties it all together so I hope this meets with counsil approval. Perhaps the zoning ordinance should be amended allowing ornamental iron fences on all lot lines_This seems to be a norm in most other municipalities. Very truly yours, __,Javier Costantino 3802 W.

Attached for the review of the City Council is a letter received from Kit Carstens, President of the McHenry Riverwalk Foundation,highlighting a significant donation commitment received from the Cunat family to honor Dean and Aastri Cunat. The letter asks the City Council to consider naming the Phase I pedestrian bridge after Dean and Aastri Cunat with a plaque honoring them at a base of the bridge. In addition,the letter asks the city to utilize the donation to initiate the design and construction of Phase H of the project along Boone Creek and the Fox River on the property commonly known as Miller Point. Analysis. In keeping with the wishes of the Cunat family,the amount of the donation is being kept confidential. Suffice it to say that the donation commitment makes significant progress in paying for the$1.2 million in estimated costs for the pedestrian bridge. Staff has carefully reviewed the impact of granting the naming rights for the bridge with bond council. From our discussions with the attorneys,it does not appear that granting this request would jeopardize the tax free status of the bonds issued for the project if the bridge is named in honor of Dean and Aastn Cunat. As such, staff wholeheartedly supports the request to honor such a gracious gift. The second request from the Foundation seeks to apply the Cunat donation to Phase II of the project which they have defined as that portion of the project on the Miller property(Joey T's). While staff would be willing to apply the donation proceeds to the phase containing the Miller property,we are not yet ready to identify that section as Phase II nor are we ready to proceed with incurring additional costs for Phase II at this point. The donation commitment is structured to be realized over a three year period. Consequently, any expenses incurred over the donation amount would require additional borrowing from the General Fund to be repaid by the TIF. Staff cannot make any recommendation that would result in the TIF borrowing additional funds from the General Fund at this time. Staffs' recommendation would be to continue to follow the business plan prepared and approved a year ago and to continue to pursue redevelopment projects to fund any and/or all of the remaining phases. Recommendation. Staff strongly supports honoring the Cunat donation to the Riverwalk project with naming the pedestrian bridge the Dean and Aastri Cunat bridge. However, staff recommends against incurring any additional costs for Phase H at this time. The McHenry Riverwalk Committee Kit Carstens The Geo Heritage Group 1402 N.

Green Street McHenry, IL 60050 Dear Mayor Low and City Council: As reported today in the Northwest Herald, the Riverwalk Foundation has been blessed with a major donation from the Cunat Family to be used to further the"ongoing project to construct the Riverwalk along Boone Creek and the Fox River in McHenry, IL." (see enclosed 10/16/06 Cunat letter) In anticipation of this donation, the Riverwalk Foundation met October 3rd, 2006 with the following approved recommendations to the Council: 1. The City of McHenry name the Phase I pedestrian bridge after the Cunats with a plaque memorializing the naming of the bridge. 2. The donation to be used to design and construct "Phase II"of the Riverwalk along Boone Creek and the Fox River on the Miller property, commonly known as Joey T's. The details of the design, timing and projected costs can be addressed by the City Engineer, City Staff and the Riverwalk Foundation. The final presentation will be made to the council prior to the commencement of construction of Phase II. The momentum has certainly begun on the Riverwalk,Downtown Redevelopment and Citizen Philanthropy. Our goal is to carry that momentum to completion of the "walk" and successful redevelopment. Thank you in advance for your concurrence.

Applicant: Robert Pruchniak,by Attorney Steve Cuda ATTACHMENTS: 1. CDD report to the Planning and Zoning Commission 2. Planning and Zoning Commission Minutes dated 8/17/06 3. Application Packet 4. Ordinance granting a Conditional Use Permit to allow Outdoor Storage of work-related material,portable toilets and work vehicles at 3908 John Street RECOMMENDATION: To approve the attached ordinance granting a Conditional Use Permit to allow outdoor storage of work-related material, portable toilets and work vehicles at 3908 John Street for a period of five (5) years, with annual renewals considered by the City Council thereafter. Description of Request The applicant is requesting a Conditional Use Permit to allow outdoor storage of work-related material, portable toilets and work vehicles at 3908 John Street. The applicant owns/operates Community Sewer & Septic a business that performs sewer and septic repair/installation and rental of portable toilets. The majority of his work is performed off-site and the subject property would be used primarily as a business office, storage and for ancillary repair/maintenance of the work vehicles. Vehicles to be stored at the site include a trailer to haul portable toilets,a dump truck,two work vans and two pumping trucks. The pumping trucks will be stored inside the existing building. The applicant currently owns about 50 portable toilets, the majority of which will be out on construction sites, concert sites, or at other special events. All portable toilets are cleaned off-site and only clean ones would be stored at the site. The applicant has already started to clean up the site and will install an 8-foot privacy fence to screen the use from adjoining properties. Staff Analysis Staff has evaluated the applicant's proposal and believes that this is an appropriate use and suitable location. This site has historically been used for intense uses having outdoor storage. Most recently the site was known as Bob's Diesel and included heavy truck repair and storage of engines,oil and other vehicle parts. There was no Conditional Use Permit on file for that business. Other nearby uses include: a lumber yard, propane business and vehicle repair business. Although Staff would like to see redevelopment of this area, it may be premature for this to occur. In the interim, it is more desirable to have these sites used for viable businesses than to have vacant sites/building falling into disrepair.The applicant has expressed a desire to keep a clean business and be a good neighbor to the community. Therefore, Staff is in support of the Conditional Use Permit for outdoor storage of work-related material,portable toilets and vehicles. To account for changing conditions, Staff is suggesting that the conditional use be approved for a period of five (5) years, with annual renewals considered by the City Council thereafter. Planning and Zoning Commission The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval (4-1) of a Conditional Use Permit to allow outdoor storage for the property at 3908 John Street subject to the following conditions: 1. No trucks used or septic tank waste pumping shall be stored outside on the premises and that no trucks used for septic tank waste pumping shall be stored inside unless emptied and cleaned; 2. No septic tank waste odors shall emanate from the site; 3. Portable toilets shall not be cleaned on the premises; 4. Portable toilets must be clean while on the premises; 5. An 8'privacy fence shall be constructed around the entire perimeter of the site; 6. A maximum of 50 portable toilets shall be stored on the site at any one time. The above conditions have been included in the attached ordinance approving the request. Community Development Department Report File# Z-679 August 17, 2006 Applicant Robert Pruchniak Community Septic and Sewer 3004 Illinois Route 120 McHenry, IL 60050 Requested Action • Conditional Use Permit for outdoor storage of portable toilets, 2 work vans and 1 dump truck Site Information Size and Location of Property The subject property is approximately 13,125 SF (0.30 ac)located at 3908 John Street. Comprehensive Plan Designation Commercial Existing Zug and Land Use The subject property is currently zoned C-4 Downtown Commercial with an existing building on site. Adiacent Zoning and Land Use North: C-4, existing commercial development South: C-5, existing commercial development East: C-4, existing commercial development West: C-5, existing commercial development Description of Request The applicant is requesting a Conditional Use Permit to allow outdoor storage of portable toilets and work vehicles. Community Septic is a business which cleans and repairs septic systems and provides clean portable toilets to sites. All portable toilets are cleaned prior to bringing them to this site for storage. Staff Analysis The attached site plan shows the existing commercial building and the locations allocated for the outdoor storage. The applicant intends to store the dump truck along side the building with the employee parking and other vehicle parking across from that along the fence. The gravel and portable toilets will be stored in the rear of the property. The applicant expects little on-site commercial customer traffic. Staff has reviewed the Conditional Use request and finds that the proposed outdoor storage will not negatively affect the site or surrounding area. This is an existing site, which currently does not comply with several components of the Zoning Ordinance. The applicants have already cleaned the site and will install a privacy screening fence, new lights and maintain the existing landscaping. Staff has reviewed the request based on Table 31 Approval Criteria for Conditional Uses in the Zoning Code. 1. Traffic Analysis. The addition of outdoor storage will not increase the vehicle traffic at this location. File#Z-679 Page 1 of 3 Community Development Department Report File# Zr-679 August 17, 2006 2. Environmental Nuisance. Outdoor storage will not create glare, dust, odor, blockage of light or air, significant noise or other adverse environmental effects of a type of degree not characteristic of Permitted Uses in the zoning district. 3. Neighborhood Character. Outdoor storage would fit harmoniously with the man-made character of the surrounding. 4. Public Services and Facilities. Outdoor storage will not require existing community facilities or services to a degree disproportionate to that normally expected of Permitted Uses in the district, nor generate disproportionate demand for new services or facilities, in such a way to place undue burdens upon existing development in the area. 5. Public Safety and Health. Outdoor storage will not be detrimental to the safety of the employees, patrons, or visitors on this site. 6. Other Factors. No other factors cited. Staff supports the requested Conditional Use Permit. Staff Recommendation Prior to Public Hearing Conditional Use Permit. Approval of a Conditional Use Permit for outdoor storage of portable toilets, construction materials and work vehicles. Staff finds that the requirements in Chapter XIV Table 31 of the Zoning Code have been met.

Michael Oliver, P O Box 1802, McHenry IL 60051. Attorney Cuda stated the Applicant is seeking a conditional use permit to allow outside storage of portable toilets and work vehicles associated with his Community Septic and Sewer business. The site is the former location of a sheet metal shop and was most recently occupied by Bob's Diesel Motors. The Applicant has met with Staff and has agreed to provide landscaping to buffer the site from view. The Applicant has also agreed to extend the water main Along John Street to his property. Attorney Cuda noted Mr. Pruchniak will do whatever is necessary to alleviate the concerns of his neighbors. There will be no flushing or cleaning of portable toilets on the site. The units will be cleaned elsewhere. Mr. Pruchniak has also agreed to construct an 8' privacy fence to shield the storage of the portable toilets from view. Planning and Zoning Commission August 17, 2006 Page 2 Planner Zeller provided the Commission with a Staff Report regarding this project. She noted the property has previously been utilized for outside storage of industrial uses. The Applicant has already begun to clean up the property. The proposed modifications to the site will help to clean up the old part of town. Planner Zeller noted this will be a clean business. The Applicant is seeking the conditional use permit to allow outside storage of equipment and supplies needed to operate his business. Staff recommends approval of the Applicant's request. Chairman Howell invited comment and questions from the commissioners. Responding to an inquiry,Mr. Pruchniak stated he would typically store 20-30 portable toilets on the premises. He noted he has a larger supply on hand at the present time as he recently had to purchase 50 new units due to recent demand. In response to further inquiry, Mr. Pruchniak stated the 16 foot wide gate would be locked at night. The 8 foot high privacy fence would surround the property and shield the storage from view. In response to a question, Mr. Pruchniak stated the County Health Department would be the monitoring agency. The Health Department has the power to condemn a facility for uncleanliness but it has never happened to the Applicant. Mr. Pruchniak noted the portable toilets are cleaned on the site of their use, i.e. festivals, construction sites, etc., prior to the units being returned to the premises for storage. Question was raised as to the purpose of the aeration unit shown on the site plan. Mr. Pruchniak responded it is a 4' by 5' fiberglass tank used to inject are into a portable septic system to allow a different type of enzyme to be produced to help reduce sludge. Responding to a question, Mr. Pruchniak stated the existing cyclone fence will be removed prior to the installation of the new privacy fence. Commissioners inquired as to the hours of operation of the business. Mr. Pmchniak stated his business opens at 8 a.m., sometimes as early as 7 a.m., and most days closes at 5 p.m. No truck maintenance will occur outside of the building. Only routine maintenance would be done on his vehicles on the premises. Commissioner Thacker reported he recently spoke to adjacent business owner, Perry Moy, who expressed no opposition to the proposed use of this property. Chairman Howell invited Public Comment from the audience. The following were sworn in by Chairman Howell: Steve Poltera: Mr. Poltera stated he owns property at 3929 Main Street and has an accounting business. One of his clients operates a similar business to Mr. Pruchniak. Mr. Poltera obtained information from his client and provided the commissioners with an explanation of how septic tank trucks are unsanitary, odorous and unsightly. He noted the smells emanating from the site would be extremely intolerable, especially during warm weather. He stressed he has three major areas of contention regarding the location of this business on the premises: 1. By storing septic tank trucks on the site,bad smells will permeate the neighborhood; 2. Leaking gaskets and/or valves on the truck would cause seepage of effluent from the truck; Planning and Zoning Commission August 17, 2008 Page 3 3. Environmental and soil contamination issues from the truck and/or the portable toilets being dumped or cleaned on the premises. Mike Oliver: Mr. Oliver stated he is the owner of the property located at 3931 Main Street which is adjacent to the subject property. He reported he was alerted to the situation by his tenants. He stated he does not have a problem with Mr. Pruchniak, but he believes the subject property is not a good fit for this type of business. He noted the adjacent grocery store and new restaurant in the area. He also opined it will be difficult to lease his apartment tenant space due to the view and odors emanating from the site. Mr. Oliver presented photos taken from his tenant space displaying the portable toilets and other equipment being stored on the subject property. Chairman Howell closed the Public Comment at 7:58 p.m. Mr. Pruchniak responded to the objectors, explaining the cleaning process he goes through following a septic pump and cleanout. He stated he always has a 5-gallon bucket full of water to rinse the hoses following their use. He noted his business motto is "Fast, Friendly, and Clean Service". Mr. Pruchniak also explained when he has problems with a gasket or valve he,changes it immediately. He stated his truck has been approved by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). A lengthy discussion followed regarding where the septic tank trucks are currently being stored. Mr. Pruchniak stated his backup truck is stored outside, but is rarely used. The good truck,which is used most time, is stored inside and is usually cleaned out prior to being stored. Responding to an inquiry, Mr. Pruchniak stated all sewage is dumped at Fox Lake Treatment Plant or Lake in the Hills Treatment Plant. In response to further inquiry, Mr. Pruchniak stated portable toilets are vacuumed out by the septic tank truck Attorney Cuda asked the Applicant if he would agree that any truck coming onto the premises containing effluent would be stored inside of the building. Mr. Pruchniak agreed to that stipulation. He noted the only reason a truck would come back to the site with effluent would be if it were called out for service and finishes after the treatment plants have closed for the day. It was pointed out much discussion has occurred regarding the storage of the septic tank pump trucks which were not shown on the site plan as being stored outside. In response to an inquiry, Mr. Pruchniak stated both pump trucks would be stored inside of the building at all times. Responding to an inquiry regarding enforcement of the inside storage and odors emanating from the site, Attorney Cahill stated the Commission could add a condition to the conditional use permit ensuring that no septic odor shall escape from the subject property as a result of the proposed use. In closing, Mr. Cuda provided the commissioners with an aerial photo of the surrounding area, and indicated all of the outside storage by other businesses. He noted portable toilets today are all made of fiberglass and easily cleaned and sanitized. Staff has been working with his client since early spring attempting to make this proposed conditional use acceptable to the City. The construction of the 8' privacy fence should help to alleviate concerns of the neighbors as the site will be shielded from view. Planning and Zoning Commission August 17, 2006 Page 4 Responding to an inquiry, Mr. Pruchniak stated he would be willing to limit the number of portable toilets being stored on the premises to 50 at any one time. Discussion occurred regarding the parking surface on the site. Commissioners inquired whether the Applicant should be required to pave the parking surface. Planner Zeller stated that because this is an existing site, and, since no alteration to the general use or expansion of the site was proposed, Staff determined that the parking lot would not need to be paved. She also stated that paving the lot would cause more sheeting of surface water. Planner Zeller stated she would confirm with Director of Community Development Napolitano if this requirement had been discussed and waived due to these facts. Motion by Cadotte, seconded by Buhrman, to recommend to City Council, with regard to File No. Z-679, a request for a conditional use permit to allow outside storage of up to fifty portable toilets, two work vans, a dump truck, and a work trailer for the property located at 3908 John Street as submitted by Robert Pruchniak,be approved subject to the following conditions: 1. No trucks used for septic tank waste pumping shall be stored outside on the premises and that no trucks used for septic tank waste pumping shall be stored inside unless emptied and cleaned; 2. No septic tank waste odors shall emanate from the site; 3. Portable toilets shall not be cleaned on the premises; 4. Portable toilets must be clean while on the premises; 5. An 8' privacy fence shall be constructed around the entire perimeter of the site; 6. A maximum of fifty portable toilets shall be stored on the site at any one time; and that Table 31, the Approval Criteria for Conditional Use Permits, page 357-358 of the Zoning Ordinance, has been met. Voting Aye: Buhrman, Cadotte, Nadeau, Thacker. Voting Nay: Howell. Not Voting: None. Abstaining: None. Absent: Ekstrom, Schepler. Motion carried 4-1. Comments by Commissioners: Buhrman: As long as the conditions are met, he has no problem with the use at this location. Cadotte: He noted he was surprised to find septic tank pumping trucks were being stored on the site. He agreed if the conditions are followed, he supports the conditional use permit. Chairman Howell: He concurred with the neighbors who stated this is not a good fit for this area. This site is near to downtown and the Riverwalk. He agrees the odors emanating from the site may be a problem. Nadeau: Concurred with Buhrman and Cadotte. Thacker: The employees cleaning the equipment will be monitored by the owner.

As you may know, the State of Illinois plan for electricity deregulation will take effect on January 2, 2007. ComEd will no longer generate electricity for its customers under the plan; it will simply deliver electric power provided by third parties through its distribution network. In September, the Illinois Commerce Commission oversaw an auction to determine the price of power supplied to Com Ed. Based on the auction results, Corn Ed estimates that the City's annual costs for electricity will increase from $335,800 to $461,700, or 37.5%, for water and wastewater pumping uses and from $191,100 to $231,600, or 21.2% for street lighting. The combined estimated increase in expenditures for these uses is$166,400. Analysis. Municipal customers have an opportunity to mitigate the price increases by purchasing electricity directly from power suppliers. In the past few months a number of government agencies have formed cooperatives or worked with consultants to purchase power directly. Staff researched the issue and determined that it would make sense to enter into an intergovernmental agreement with other local government agencies, including the City of Woodstock, Village of Lake in the Hills, and the Village of Huntley, to purchase directly from a third party power supplier without a middleman. The cooperative arrangement would provide increased buying power and allow members to share administrative costs for the development and legal review of purchasing contracts. An intergovernmental agreement forming the proposed cooperative is attached. The cooperative will be managed by representatives of the participating entities who will be authorized to negotiate electric power purchasing agreements. In addition, because of the rapidly changing market, vendors will typically only guarantee quoted prices for 24 to 48 hours. As a result, staff is seeking authority for the City Administrator to enter into a purchase agreement prior to formal Council approval subject to the condition that the cost must be lower than that which would be available if purchasing directly from Commonwealth Edison. The cooperative will issue a request for proposal seeking pricing from electricity providers in early December. The cooperative does.not plan to enter into a purchasing agreement prior to the State Legislature considering "rate freeze" legislation. If an agreement is executed and a rate freeze passed, cooperative members will pursue the most cost effective option. Recommendation. Staff recommends execution of the intergovernmental agreement forming a purchasing cooperative for electricity. In addition, staff requests authorization to execute a purchase contract for the City's electric supply. ORDINANCE NO. An Ordinance Authorizing Execution of an Intergovernmental Agreement for the Purpose of Purchasing Electric Power for the Municipalities'Needs; Waiving the Bidding Requirements for the Purchase of Electric Power and Authorizing Purchase Agreements for the Purchase of Electricity WHEREAS,several municipalities,the Villages of Lake in the Hills,Huntley and Lakewood and the Cities of Genoa,McHenry and Woodstock,all Illinois municipal corporations,(collectively, "Municipalities")have made or are reasonably expected to make the following findings: A. On January 2,2007,the State of Illinois is implementing a plan("Plan")to deregulate Commonwealth Edison; and B. Under the Plan, Commonwealth Edison will no longer generate electricity for its customers,but will continue to provide electric power through its distribution system; and C. As a result of this deregulation, the purchase of electricity will be based on market and auction prices and Exelon,the parent company of Commonwealth Edison,will no longer be the sole supplier of electricity in northern Illinois, resulting in new electricity suppliers being able to compete against Exelon and competitive market forces dictating the price of electricity; and D. During fiscal year 2005-06, the City of McHenry spent $565,200 on electricity for such services including,but not limited to,street lighting,potable water production and distribution and wastewater treatment; and E. Since Commonwealth Edison has had prices fixed for the last nine years by the Illinois Commerce Commission, which will end with deregulation through the Plan, the cost of electricity is expected to rise 20 to 60 percent, according to information received from Commonwealth Edison; and F. Units of government throughout the Commonwealth Edison service area are now looking at ways to enter the market to purchase electric power in order to mitigate some of the economic impact of these rising electricity rates; and G. The Municipalities have concluded that working through a cooperative group and by negotiating directly with electric generation suppliers, the Municipalities will be able to secure competitively priced power at a rate dramatically lower than the rate that will be provided by Commonwealth Edison; and H. Transaction costs of negotiating a power purchase arrangement with third party suppliers may be reduced considerably by acting cooperatively with other units of local government; and Electricity,Page 1 I. Because of the way the bidding process works, the Municipalities' Manager/Administrator/Mayor/President will need authority to approve and sign a contract with an electricity provider which is deemed most favorable for the Municipalities within hours of the bids being received and there will not be adequate time to return to the corporate authorities for formal approval; and WHEREAS, the specified Municipalities have negotiated an intergovernmental agreement establishing the Northern Illinois Governmental Energy Cooperative("Cooperative")for the purpose of purchasing electric power for the Municipalities'needs at a lower cost than that available through the Municipalities' current provider, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A (the "Agreement"), and it is expected that additional local government bodies may also join this Agreement; and WHEREAS,municipalities may contract and associate among themselves pursuant to Article VII, Section 10 of the Illinois Constitution of 1970 and the Illinois Intergovernmental Cooperation Act, 5 ILCS 220/1 et seq.; and WHEREAS, the Municipalities agree that there may be economies of scale, both in administrative costs and in commodity prices by purchasing electricity together as a group,and that in order to obtain these economies of scale,they must operate together,which is one of the purposes of the Intergovernmental Cooperation Act; and WHEREAS, Division 9, Purchasing and Public Contracts in Municipalities of Less than 500,000,of the Illinois Municipal Code,at 65 ILCS 5/8-9-1,requires that contracts for public works or improvements be let to the lowest responsible bidder after advertising for bids, in the manner prescribed by ordinance, except that any such contract may be entered into by the proper officers without advertising for bids if authorized by a vote of two-thirds of all the aldermen or trustees then holding office. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED by the CITY COUNCIL of the CITY OF McHENRY, McHenry County, Illinois, as follows: SECTION 1: That the Mayor be, and is hereby authorized and directed to execute, and the Clerk is authorized and directed to attest, duplicate original copies of the Intergovernmental Agreement between the Municipalities,a copy of which is attached hereto and made a part hereof as Exhibit A. This approval includes explicit waiver of any conflict of interest for the law firm of Zukowski,Rogers,Flood and McArdle to represent the Municipalities and the Cooperative in this matter. SECTION 2:The Administrator is directed to take all actions necessary,including executing a purchase contract on behalf of the City, to secure a supply of electricity for the City's municipal needs from either Commonwealth Edison or,if a meaningful lower priced option can be had through the Cooperative, then with the supplier identified by the Cooperative. Electricity,Page 2 SECTION 3: The requirements of 65 ILCS 5/8-9-1, to the extent they apply, are hereby waived regarding the purchase of electricity. SECTION 4:At the first available meeting of the corporate authorities after the execution of the Contract, the Administrator shall report to the corporate authorities the details of any purchase contract. SECTION 5: If any section, paragraph, subdivision, clause, sentence or provision of this Ordinance shall be adjudged by any Court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, such judgment shall not affect,impair,invalidate or nullify the remainder thereof,which remainder shall remain and continue in full force and effect. SECTION 6: All ordinances or parts of ordinances in conflict herewith are hereby repealed to the extent of such conflict. SECTION 7: This Ordinance shall be in full force and effect upon its passage,approval and publication in pamphlet form(which publication is hereby authorized) as provided by law.

Jones, Clerk City of McHenry, McHenry County, Illinois (SEAL) INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT FOR THE PURCHASE OF ELECTRICITY This Intergovernmental Agreement ("Agreement") is entered into between signatory parties below, including the Villages of Lake in the Hills, Huntley and Lakewood and the Cities of Genoa, McHenry and the Woodstock, all Illinois municipal corporations, (collectively, "Municipalities"). It is explicitly contemplated that additional local governmental entities may join this Agreement at a later date with the permission of the Administrator, as defined below, and without additional approval from the original contracting parties, and that this Agreement shall be binding on any signatories provided that at least three of the municipalities listed above approve this Agreement. WHEREAS,-the Municipalities agree that there may be economies of scale, both in administrative costs and in commodity prices,by purchasing electricity together as a group; and WHEREAS, the Municipalities agree that in order to obtain these economies of scale, they must operate together which is one of the purposes of the Intergovernmental Cooperation Agreement Act("Act") (5 ILCS 220/1 et seq.); and WHEREAS, this Agreement satisfies the requirements of that Act and the Illinois State Constitution(Article 7, Section 10) Now, therefore, the Municipalities agree as follows: 1. To form together as the Northern Illinois Governmental Energy Cooperative ("Cooperative") in order to negotiate an economical power purchase agreement ("Power Agreement") and agree to be bound by such agreement under the following circumstances: (a) This Agreement is for the purpose of purchasing power generation supplies for delivery to the Municipalities starting as soon as economically and practically possible in January 2007, but dependent upon the administrative requirements imposed on Commonwealth Edison and other power retailers operating in the State of Illinois. (b) Each member of this Agreement shall be given one vote for purposes of determining whether to enter into a specific Power Agreement; (c) The Cooperative membership shall be governed by one representative of each member (the "Governing Board"). This Governing Board shall be responsible for researching and identifying market power purchase opportunities, issuing RFPs for potential suppliers and considering the purchase options for the Cooperative all no later than December 31, 2006; (d) The Governing Board shall vote to select the best Power Agreement. A majority vote of the Governing Board shall be required to authorize entry into a Power Agreement. This vote may be taken by telephone or e-mail. (e) The members agree to be bound by this vote for purposes of entry into the Power Agreement for a 17-month period or the balance of the first 17- month Commonwealth Edison auction period if the 17-month period has already begun. This period is expected to terminate on or about June 1, 2008. The Power Agreement recommended by the Governing Board may be for a lesser period than 17 months if advantages are identified. (f) The Cooperative membership agrees to provide the necessary information required to develop bid specifications within one business week of the request being made by the Administrator (as defined below). Failure to provide this information may result in exclusion from the Cooperative at the discretion of the Administrator. (g) With an affirmative vote as described herein, the Administrator may verbally commit the Cooperative membership to accept a Power Agreement and each Cooperative member agrees to execute such Power Agreement binding their respective unit of government within the first business day after the affirmative vote is obtained. (h) All original parties agree to have secured authority from their respective corporate authorities to enter into this Agreement and to execute Power Agreements under(g) above by November 15, 2006. (i) The Cooperative membership agrees to share all costs associated with this transaction,which costs shall be divided between them equally based upon their expected percentage share of the total megawatt contract ultimately agreed upon with the power vendor. (j) The Cooperative membership agrees to obtain waivers of any conflict of interests from their respective boards by November 15, 2006, permitting the law firm of Zukowski, Rogers, Flood & McArdle ("ZRFM") to represent them and this Cooperative. (k) ZRFM will represent the Cooperative at the rate of$195.00 per attorney hour, which is a discount of ZRFM's non-municipal rate, and a rate of $100 per hour for legal assistant time. All parties acknowledge this rate will include time and expenses already incurred for researching and creating this Cooperative. (1) The Cooperative membership agrees to place administrative responsibility for this transaction including approval of any new members with the City of Woodstock Finance Director (the "Administrator"), who will report to the Governing Board on administrative matters. The Governing Board may elect a new Administrator or Assistant Administrator at any time. (m) The bidding shall exclude street lights and any franchise accounts. (n) The Parties agree that no single member shall be bound by this Agreement until at least three governmental members have approved its execution by November 15, 2006.

Each year corporate authorities for the City of McHenry are required to estimate the revenues required to operate the various functions of the City. Included in the revenues are those amounts funded through the property tax. Consequently, the City must estimate the amounts required for the property tax levy so that the funds generated through this revenue mechanism will become available during the 2006-07 fiscal year. The estimated levy must be approved by the City Council and submitted to the McHenry County Clerk by the last Tuesday in December(26th). The 2006 levy request of$4,252,913 is an increase of 15% over the prior year's extension of $3,698,184. However,the actual levy extension will likely be considerably less after the County Clerk has applied the property tax extension limitation. In the past five years,the levy extension has grown between 5.7% and 8.5%. A history of the levy over the past several years is included for your review. In March 2007,the County Clerk will provide the limiting tax extension and,if the City's request has exceeded the tax extension limitation, the levy amount will be reduced accordingly. If, on the other hand, the request for the levy extension is below the tax extension limitation, the City will not have the ability to levy more to make up the difference. Therefore, it is critical that the original request is considerably higher than the anticipated levy in order to capture all new growth in the community and all of the property tax revenue the City is entitled to under tax cap legislation. Since.the tax levy estimate shows an increase of more that 5% when compared to the previous extension, a public hearing must be held to meet the requirements of the Truth-in-Taxation law. It is recommended that a public hearing be scheduled for December 4th, 2006 at 7:30 P.M. prior to the regular City Council agenda. For your review, I have attached an historical comparison of tax rates, assessed valuations, and tax extensions and a summary of the property tax levy process. Resolution R-06- Resolution Determining the Amount of Funds to be levied for the 2006 Tax Year through real estate taxes For the City of McHenry,McHenry County, Illinois WHEREAS, the City of McHenry has historically levied taxes for the purpose of conducting City business for its residents and local businesses; and WHEREAS, it has been determined the requested levy amount is an increase of fifteen percent (15%) over the 2005 levy amount; and WHEREAS, it is the intent of the City of McHenry to exceed the 2005 tax extension by more than 105%with the levy request; and-- WHEREAS, a Public Hearing as required by the Truth in Taxation Act of 1981 will be held on December 4, 2006; and WHEREAS, notice shall be published in the Northwest Herald between November 20, 2006 and November 27, 2006,notifying the general public of the Public Hearing. NOW,THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Mayor and City Council of the City of McHenry, McHenry County, Illinois,that it has been determined the amount of taxes to be levied by the City of McHenry, exclusive of the election costs, shall be $4,252,913.
