RE: Intergovernmental Agreement with McHenry Public Library District
Recommendation: To renew the attached Intergovernmental Agreement between
the City of McHenry and the McHenry Public Library District for use of a storage shed
on district property for one-year expiring on June 2, 2009 or less.
_____________________________________________________________________
In 1995, the city entered into an Intergovernmental Agreement with the McHenry
Public Library District, and each year after, for use of a storage shed on district
property located at 809 North Front Street. The current extension expires on June 2,
2008.
The shed is used by the Police Department to store equipment and other
miscellaneous items. In exchange, the city maintains the shed and provides the
library with street sweeping and snowplowing services for their parking lot.
The Library District is in favor of extending the agreement for another year. Each
party agrees to maintain their own liability insurance and to hold each other harmless
from all liability. In addition, there is a provision in the original agreement that
allows the city or the district to terminate the lease with 90 days prior notice. The
Library District is aware that upon occupancy of the new Public Works facility, the
need for this intergovernmental agreement will end.
CONSENT AGENDA

SUBJECT: Northern Illinois Police Crime Lab Membership
The Northern Illinois Police Crime Lab is a multi-jurisdictional laboratory available to
member departments for crime scene and evidence processing. The decision was
made to return to the NIPCL after several years of using the Illinois State Police lab.
NIPCL has the ability to return results from evidence much sooner than the ISP lab
and is equipped to handle all major investigations for its members. This year’s
membership amount of $27,906.00 is the city of McHenry Police Department’s share
of the crime lab’s annual budget.
As in the past three years, the department is also requesting to pay the fourth of five
installments of $3,000.00 that was agreed to, signifying a five year commitment to the
crime lab.
Recommendation is made to pay the membership fee, $27,906.00, and installment of
the intergovernmental agreement, $3,000.00, and remain a member of the Northern
Illinois Police Crime Lab.
