Revenues, Expenditures and Transfers
Budget Vs. Actual
15Y Quarter FY16-17 — (May 1, 2016 —July 31, 2016)
Overview
For the 2016/17 fiscal year all departments were asked to keep the budget status quo as revenues
projections were cautiously adjusted based on historical trends as well as taking into consideration the
financial instability of the State of Illinois. With this said, the operating budget is balanced and the
community's program, service, capital equipment, and capital improvement needs will be met. The
national economy has stalled during the first two quarters of 2016 due mostly to declining business
investments. Across the United States, the GDP grew at a 1.2% annual rate in the second quarter of
2016 and is not expected to meet expectations for the year. Consumer spending is still up and driving
the small upswing in the economy. This can be attributed to job creation and lower gasoline prices. And
the national unemployment rate dropped to 4.9% from 5.1% one year ago. With this positive news, it is
important to note that the State of Illinois as well as McHenry County are falling behind the trend in the
nation. The state's unemployment rate is 6.0% and McHenry County is at 5.4% as of June 2016. The
State currently remains without a budget, but disbursements of video gaming revenues to municipalities
have resumed with the passing of the stop -gap budget. On the whole, it is important to continue to
watch revenue trends as well as spending in order to be able to adjust to the volatile market.
The City Administration continues to monitor the City's financial position on a monthly basis in order to
ensure the budget document is followed. By actively managing the finances, deficit spending can be
kept to a minimum and year-end fund balance results can be predicted and deficits eliminated.
Highlights of revenues and expenditures are included below.
Budget vs. Actual —Revenues &Expenditures (Refer to Page Al
Overall, out of the City's 30 funds, 29 of the funds are running at levels management would expect for
the first quarter of FY16/17. The funds that received property tax receipts are all running over the
expected budgeted amount of 25% because %Z of property tax receipts are received in June.
Water/Sewer fund revenues are running slightly behind the expected budgeted amount due to only 2
months of bills being recorded, this will be adjusted at the end of the fiscal year. Also, usage and billings
for higher summer usage will go out in the second quarter. Management will closely watch water/sewer
revenues over the next two quarters. The Employee Insurance fund expenditures are running over
budget because 4 months of premiums have been paid.
Revenues by Type (Refer to Page 5)
The City's revenues are on track to meet budget amounts for the fiscal year. As of the first quarter, total
revenues are at 23% of the budgeted amount which is lower than the 25% expected. This is due to the
fact that transfers for the fiscal year have not been completed and water/sewer sales are only recorded
for two months. Property tax revenues are usually received May through December, which drives up
the percent of budget for the first quarter. As of the first quarter, about 527o of property tax revenues
have been received, which is expected. Sales taxes were budgeted about 2.5% higher for fiscal year
2016-17 based on past trends and expected increases with the improving economic conditions. As of
the first quarter, sales taxes are running at 21% of budget. Income taxes were budgeted about 12%
higher due to past trends and are running at about 35% of budget for the first quarter. It is important to
note that both sales taxes and income taxes are received approximately three months after they are
collected. At the end of the fiscal year the tax revenue accounts are adjusted to reflect what was
actually earned for the year. Income taxes have also been volatile over the last couple of years due to
the state's financial position; at times the payments were running four to five months behind instead of
just the typical three months. For now the state is back on track, but income taxes have repeatedly
been brought to the table as a source of savings for the state by limiting the amounts paid to local
governments.
Water and Sewer sales are running below the expected 25% of budget at 15%. As was stated before
only two months of bills have been recorded as of the first quarter, adjustments are made at the end of
the fiscal year to make up for this. Billing for the higher summer usage will be completed in the second
quarter which should drive up revenues, but this will have to be closely monitored. The budget for
Impact fees was increased by 42% last fiscal year because of past trends. The fees are currently running
at 29% of budget which is expected as the summer season is primarily when permits are issued.
Licenses and permits revenues are at about 40% of budget for the first quarter. These revenues are
running higher than expected due to vehicle stickers and increased permit issuances due to the time of
the year. Video Gaming revenues were not received until the second quarter from the State of Illinois.
Reimbursement revenues are at about 41% of budget due a yearly payment for the new dispatch center
from the McHenry Township Fire Protection District. Interest income is falling short of the expected
quarterly results due to police pension investment transactions that have not been recorded as of this
report date. The interest income budgeted amount was also kept very low as the interest rates have not
rebounded. Other Revenues are running at 9% of budget because transfers between funds were
recorded in the second quarter.
Revenues by Fund (Refer to page 6)
General Fund revenues amount to 67% of the total budgeted revenues primarily coming from property
taxesI sales taxes, income taxes, and charges for services. As of the first quarter, general fund revenues
are at 34% of budget, which is expected as % of property taxes have been received and parks and
revenue charges for services are higher during the summer months. The Tax Increment Fund revenues
are at 50% of budget due to property tax receipts received during the first part of the year. Capital
Improvements Fund revenues are running at 0% because transfers between funds were not completed
until the second quarter. Debt Service Fund revenues are at 1% of budget due to transfers that cover
the debt service fees being completed during the second quarter. Police pension revenues are at 34% of
budget due to employer contributions which are property tax receipts and % of the receipts have been
received. All other funds' revenues are running at 28% for the quarter.
Page 2 of 8
Expenditure by Type (Refer to page 7)
Total expenditures for the quarter were at 2070 which is slightly below the expected amount, due to
transfers between funds being completed during the second quarter. Salaries represent 27% of the
total expenditure budget and are only at 22% of the budgeted amount. Overtime budgets are being
closely monitored. Benefit expenditures are at 31% of the budgeted amount due to the city's police
pension contributions being at 53% of the budgeted amount. Police pension contributions are equal to
the property tax receipts with the majority of the collections in June and September. Contractual
expenses are only at 23% showing the commitment to hold down expenses in order to be able to adjust
to a slowing economy.
Other expenses are running right at 25% for the quarter. The development expense account is at 24%
of budget for the year due to the advanced payment to Gary Lang for the sales tax incentive agreement.
Also, the Tax Increment Fund administrative expense account is over the quarterly budgeted amount
due to paying % of the property tax increment to 1110 N. Green Street and Chain O'Lakes Brewing
Company per the agreements. Debt service expenses are at 10% of the budgeted amount due to bond
principal payments being paid later in the fiscal year.
Expenditure by Fund (Refer to page 8)
The total for all of the funds are running at 20% of the budgeted amount, and only two funds are over
the expected 25% budget amount for the first quarter. The Water/Sewer Fund is at 27% due to %z of
bond interest payments being made during the first quarter. The Employee Insurance Fund is at 32% of
budget because four months of insurance premiums have been paid because the City is required to pay
one month in advance. A correction to the expense account is made at the end of the fiscal year to
ensure only twelve payments are recorded during the current fiscal year. The Risk Management Fund is
at 0% of budget because the McHenry County Municipal Risk Management Agency (MCMRMA)
premium has not been paid as of the first quarter.
Upcoming Quarters
In summary, the City continues to be in a stable, fiscally conservative, financial position. Due diligence
by all departments will be necessary to ensure this trend continues. Over the next few quarters,
management will closely watch revenues to make sure they are on track to meet budgeted amounts as
well as the water/sewer fund. Adjustments can be made for this fiscal year as well as to next year's
budget to ensure positive results.

AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY:
The City Council is being asked to consider a 1.28-foot side yard building setback variance from
the zoning ordinance to allow a home addition, to the west elevation, at 1503 Richmond Road.
ANALYSIS:
The applicant lives on a through or double -frontage lot, Richmond Road on the east and Maple
Court to the west and the property requires a six-foot side yard setback. Currently the setback
is 4.72' therefore the property must comply with the current ordinance due to the proposed
expansion. The Zoning Ordinance defines this setback as a standards non -conformity and no
addition, enlargement or structural alteration can be made to a property having a standards
non -conformity with the conformance of any new addition or enlargement portion of the
structure to all requirements in the zoning ordinance. The conformity with the Zoning
Ordinance is being accomplished by seeking a variance to the existing side yard setback. Below

in recommending approval or conditional approval of a variance, the Planning and Zoning Commission
shall transmit to the City Council written findings of fact that all of the conditions below apply to the

district. And these circumstances are not of so general or recurrent a nature as to make it reasonably
practical to provide a general regulation to cover them.
2. Circumstances Relate to the Property Only

Ordinance would result in unnecessary and undue hardship upon the applicant, as distinguished from

although it may have this effect, but because without a variance the applicant will be deprived of any

Mr. Martin,
Z-901
We have been retained by Pat Wirtz, residing at 1503 Richmond Road,
McHenry, to design an addition to his residence, proposing a one-story
addition to the west (rear). The owner would like to align the addition
with the southern face of the residence.
Our understanding is that 1503 Richmond Road is zoned R-4 which
requires a 6 foot side yard setback from the property line. The owner
is seeking a variance allowing the addition to encroach about 14" into
the side yard setback..
We will assist the owner to prepare the proper documents for pofiential
approval at a public hearing in the City of McHenry.
Sincerely,
David J. Gillespie

A variance is necessary for the applicant to preserve and enjoy a substantial property right possessed by
otlier properties in the same zoning district, and does not confer a special privilege ordinarily denied to other

zoning district causing a particular disadvantage to this site Granting the variance does not confer a special
privilege to the property.

Liberty Square Shopping Center
The Liberty Square Shopping Center was constructed in 2002-2003 and currently contains a
convenience store, Cucina Rosa (Italian Restaurant) and Allstate Insurance Company located in
the retail (strip portion of the center -eastern end cap unit), a professional office building on the
west side of the property and a vacant, former bank, as an outlot building. In addition to the
outlot building there are four vacant units, excluding space available in the professional office
building. The applicant is proposing to open a craft beer tavern at 4117 Shamrock Lane, which
is the end cap unit (1,500 square feet) located in the retail strip portion on the south side of the
center. The use variance, referenced above, approved in 2001 permits the following uses in the
center:
a) computer sales, rental and service
b) donut shop, with retail hours restricted from 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.
c) beauty and barber shops, hair salons
d) candy, ice cream, popcorn, nut and yogurt stores
e) florist shop
f) stationary and office supply stores
g) photocopying and printing shops

The applicant, Jason Newman/BeerAbility, has been very involved in each of the communities in
which he operates his business - being a member of the local chamber of commerce in both
North Chicago and Round Lake. Provided in this supplement is a flyer from a Welcome Home
Event for Veterans held in North Chicago, of which Beerability was a sponsor, and the following
has been excerpted from a recent Round Lake Chamber newsletter:
Last month was our first Women's Networking event, WEB was a huge success.
A huge thank you to Round Lake Heights business, BeerAbility, for hosting this
first event. They provided a wonderful table of food and refreshments that many
of us stuck around later to continue to enjoy. We had 14 wonderful, professional
ladies from the Round Lake area attend.
ANALYSIS:
The proposed use variance is required for a tavern because taverns are not permitted uses in
the 0-1 zoning district. As previously stated the City Council approved an ordinance to allow
additional uses within the Liberty Square Shopping Center due to the difficulty in locating
tenants within the center. The site is unique in that it's a shopping center, with an outlot and
professional office building however, other than the east end cap unit and the outlot, the other
in -line spaces do not have direct frontage on Route 31 and lack visibility from Shamrock Lane
and Illinois Route 31. The unit the applicant is proposing to locate in was previously occupied a
couple of times in the past for non -retail uses due to the lack of visibility.
Use Variances must satisfy criteria based upon the following: practical difficulties or particular
hardship; reasonable return; unique circumstances; not altering local character and consistent
with the comprehensive plan.
Staff has been working with the applicant on locating in the City of McHenry for several
months. The proposed use is unique and offers an opportunity to enhance the viability of the

Liberty Square Shopping Center. There are difficulties and hardships associated with this
location, including lack of visibility; lack of tenancy and turnover in tenancy.
The center is located at a traffic light and in close proximity to residential housing units
therefore there are opportunities for pedestrian access to the center. Staff does not believe
this will negatively impact the local character. The use compliments the existing uses in the
center, including the professional office building to the west. While the applicant does serve
food their menu is still growing, and their use of craft beer provides a unique element which
will draw customers to the center and hopefully attract other tenants to the vacant units within
the center.
In addition, as identified in Mr. Newman's request and included documentation, the proposed
use will include the service of alcohol upon approval of a liquor license and, upon issuance of a
local liquor license it is his intent to request a Video Gaming License from the State. The liquor
license request follows this agenda item and is conditioned upon the approval of this Use
Variance.
Variance Request from the Off -Street Parking and Loading Requirement
PARKING FOR SHOPPING CENTERS
The number of parking spaces required for retail and personal service uses located in a
shopping center shall be as provided for shopping centers in Table 13 rather than the sum of
the spaces required for the individual uses. Except that the number of spaces for restaurants,
taverns, and drive-in facilities located in a shopping center, and for any establishment
occupying over 50 percent of the gross leasable area of the center, shall be as provided in Table
13 for these individual uses and shall be added to the number of spaces required under the
provisions for shopping centers for the balance of the uses in the center.
The applicant is seeking a variance from the off-street parking and loading requirements. The
base parking requirement for a shopping center of this size, approximately 9,866 square feet of
in -line space is 4 parking spaces/1,000 square feet of building floor area plus additional spaces
for the restaurant use (Cucina Rosa) and proposed tavern use (BeerAbility). The center consists
of three lots with three buildings, with cross access easements in place, as well as common area
parking requirements.
Currently the Liberty Square Shopping Center has 156 parking spaces and 165 are required.
The applicant is required to have 13 parking spaces; Cucina Rosa requires 55 spaces and the

www.ci.mchenry.il.us
rest of the uses within the retail portion of the center require 20 parking spaces. The office
building requires 62 parking spaces, and outlot 15 spaces.
Staff believes the center has much more parking than is actually used on at varying times on
different days. Below are the approval criteria which must be satisfied for the variance request.
Practically, staff believes there is ample parking and in staffs opinion the tavern proposed is
critical for sustaining the long-term viability of the center; will provide a complimentary use for
other uses in the center which will assist those businesses and the property has impaired
visibility from Route 31 and is not as desirable from a retail standpoint. Additionally, there is an
opportunity for shared parking with the professional office building.
The shopping center recently has struggled and lost multiple tenants and this use will assist in
revitalizing the center and capitalize on the public space which is the true essence and identity
A the center. There are no uses similar to the proposed use in close proximity to this location
however there is a large employment base within a mile radius (see attached business park
map) which will provide a partial customer base.
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
On June 22, 2016 the Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously recommended approval of
an application for a Use Variance to allow a tavern at 4117 Shamrock Lane and any other
variances required effectuating the aforementioned request on the Subject Property, subject to
the condition there is no outside service of food or alcohol or consumption of alcohol outdoors
and approval of an application for a nine -space parking variance from the off-street parking
requirements for Lots 1-3 (Liberty Square Shopping Center). Minutes from this meeting are
provided for reference.
RECOMMENDATION:
Therefore, if the City Council concurs with the Planning and Zoning Commission, it is

Variance to allow a tavern at 4117 Shamrock Lane and any other variances required
effectuating the aforementioned request on the Subject Property, subject to the condition
there is no outside service of food or alcohol or consumption of alcohol outdoors and
approval of an application for a nine -space parking variance from the off-street parking
requirements for Lots 1-3 (Liberty Square Shopping Center).

Director of Economic Development Martin provided the Commission with the Staff Report
regarding this matter stating the subject property is zoned 0-1 Local Office and contains 3 lots
containing a 9,866 retail square -foot shopping center strip building, a 3,902 square -foot outlot
building and a 21,000 square -foot professional office building. A use variance was approved in
2001 permitting additional uses on the subject property. Total size of the lots is approximately
3.51 acres.

building. He further stated he has a concern with gaming in the shopping center especially
since families visit the office building. Mr. Stankevych stated he wishes the best of luck to Mr.
Newman but worries about the clientele and gaming activity especially during doctor's office
hours. He is also concerned with how far his patients may have to park away his office.
Mr. Newman replied BeerAbility is not a gaming facility but is a gastro pub whose core business
is craft beer and wine. They typically spend $150,000-$200,000 on a buildout of space and
$10,000 per month on inventory. Mr. Newman stated they take great pride in providing
beautiful establishments. Their goal is to be a friend and a partner of the community. In the
North Chicago are Mr. Newman has been asked to be a board member for the Chamber of
Commerce because they are so actively involved in the community. The clientele is a 21 and
over establishment which represents their business and they will only tolerate a good
reputation. No spirits will be served; they are only a craft beer and wine establishment and
they have had no problems or issues in regard to people being over -served in any of their other
locations. Ms. O'Leary invited all in attendance to view the BeerAbility websites and Facebook
pages to see what they do and how they advertise. They have been compliant with having all
Bassett certified servers and trained food handlers since the beginning of their operations.
Service limits are put on certain types of beer as well. They will have 5 gaming machines as that
is the maximum allowed by state law.
Toni Herlo, 4506 N Riverdale Dr., McHenry, IL 60050, speaking for Optimar LLC, stated she is
part owner of the bank property at 4101 Shamrock which is part of this shopping center. Ms.
Herlo stated this property is surrounded by professional buildings, Centegra, and a residential
neighborhood. Her concern is having a tavern with gambling in the middle of this family
neighborhood. Ms. Herlo further opined this use will depreciate values of surrounding
properties.
Commissioner Meyer asked Ms. Herlo if she has any proven studies on the depreciation she is
suggesting to which Ms. Herlo responded she did not. Ms. Herlo has a concern with inebriated
patrons and fights in an area so close to residential neighborhoods and the amount of families
visiting the professional office space. She also stated a concern with being unable to rent the
bank space with a tavern in such close vicinity. Ms. Herlo is concerned with how this
establishment will look to families with children.
Mr. Newman responded that their establishment in North Chicago is two spots from a WinTrust
Bank, a doctor's office and a pharmacy with absolutely no problems. They strive to be and have
been good neighbors. Mr. Newman further stated this high -end craft beer and wine only pub is
something the community does not have and will draw people to McHenry because it is unique.
They offer radio station events, weekly trivia nights, etc. which draw people from outside the

community. It will create 8-10 jobs and provide sales tax revenue. They take a tremendous
amount of pride and time in making sure their establishments are kept up. Mr. Newman stated
they have never had one fight and they err on the side of caution and cut people off when
needed. The other communities they are in are very happy to have them join their
communities and it is not a typical bar atmosphere. Ms. O'Leary stated there is already a liquor
stall in the strip mall and an Italian restaurant which serves alcohol so they will not be the first
to join the strip mall with service of alcohol.
Vice Chairman Thacker closed the public comment portion of the hearing at 8:20 p.m.
Commissioner Miller thanked Mr. Newman for his response and presentation to the
Commission. Commissioner Miller asked Mr. Newman to describe the typical customer
experience at BeerAbility. Mr. Newman stated servers make sure patrons understand the
menu and usually ask for specifics. Patrons are given a chance to look at the facility, offered
food, and shown where televisions and lounges are located as well as informed that coffee, tea
and pop are available. Patrons will feel comfortable and happy they are visiting. Typical
feedback they receive is that they are one of the nicest places in town and thanks from
municipalities. Staff goes out of the way to make sure everyone is comfortable because they
want word of mouth to spread they are friendly, fun and an upscale environment. Ms. O'Leary
stated many patrons are regular patrons that are locally established and the 2 other locations
operating already are loved by the area residents and city officials.
Director of Economic Development Martin stated this is a recommending body and the vote will
go to City Council next. Copies of the minutes and notice of the upcoming City Council meeting
can be sent to anyone requesting it.

the conditions allowed by the regulations in the Zoning Ordinance for the pertinent
zoning district.
3. Special circumstances, fully described in the written findings, exist that are peculiar
to the property for which the use variance is sought and that they do not apply

The requested actions are: Use Variance to allow a tavern at 4117 Shamrock Lane and a
Variance from the off-street parking and loading requirements for Liberty Square Shopping
Center and any other variances required to effectuate the aforementioned request. The
applicant operates two other craft beer taverns In �itiund Lake Heights and North Chirago and. is
opening a third this year in Lake Zurich. Their business plan and operation is described in detail
in the attached agenda packet.
Stiff Analysi3
The proposed use variance is required for a tavern because taverns are not permitted uses in
the &I zoning district. As previously stated the City Council approval an ordinance to allow
additional uses within the Liberty Square Shopping Center due to the difficulty in locating
tenants within the center. The site is unique in that it's a shopping center, with an outlot and
professional office building however, other than the east end cap unit and the outlot, the other
in -line spaces do not have direct frontage on Route 31 and lack visibility from Shamrock Lane
and Illinois Route 31. The unit the applicant is proposing to locate in was previously occupied a
couple of times in the past for non -retail uses due to the lack of visibility.
Use Variances must satisfy criteria based upon the following: practical difficulties or particular
hardshipI reasonable return; unique circumstances; not altering local character and consistent
with the comprehensive plan. Staff has been working with the applicant on locating in the City
of McHenry for several months. The proposed use is unique and offers an opportunity to
enhance the viability of the Liberty Square Shopping Center. There are difficulties and
hardships associated with this location, including lack of visibility; lack of tenancy and turnover
in tenancy.
The center is located at a traffic light and in close proximity to residential housing units
therefore there are opportunities for pedestrian access to the center. Staff does not believe
this will negatively impact the local character. The use compliments the existing uses in the

center, including the professional office building to the west. While the applicant does serve
food their menu is still growing, and their use of craft beer provides a unique element which
will draw customers to the center and hopefully attract other tenants to the vacant units within
the center.
Variance from the Off -Street Parking and Loading Requirement
PARKING FOR SHOPPING CENTERS
The number of parking spaces required for retail and personal service uses located in a
shopping center shall be as provided for shopping centers in Table 13 rather than the sum of
the spaces required for the individual uses. Except that the number of spaces for restaurants,
taverns, and drive-in facilities located in a shopping center, and for any establishment
occupying over 50 percent of the gross leasable area of the center, shall be as provided in Table

^ these individual uses an „u„ a ded ru . ti.... u
provisions for shopping centers for the balance of the uses in the center.
The applicant is seeking a variance from the off-street parking and loading requirements.- The
base parking requirement for a shopping center of this size, approximately 9,866 square feet of
in -line space is 4 parking spaces/1,000 square feet of building floor area plus additional spaces
for the restaurant use (Cucina Rosa) and proposed tavern use (Beerability). The center consists
of three lots with three buildings, with cross access easements in place, as well as common area
parking requirements.
Currently the Liberty Square Shopping Center has 156 parking spaces and 165 are required.
The applicant is required to have 13 parking spaces; Cucina Rosa requires 55 spaces and the
rest of the uses within the retail portion of the center require 20 parking spaces. The office
building requires 62 parking spaces and the outlot 15.
Staff believes the center has much more parking than is actually used on different days. Below
aI e the approval criteria which must be satisfied for the variance request.

Table 32 of the Zoning Ordinance
1. Special circumstances exist that are peculiar to the property for which the
variance is sought and that do not apply generally to other properties in the
same zoning district. And these circumstances are not of so general or recurrent
a nature as to make it reasonably practical to provide a general regulation to
cover them.
2. The special circumstances referenced herein relate only to the physical character
of the land or building(s) for which the variance is sought, such as dimension,
topography, or soil conditions. They do not concern any business or activity the
present or prospective owner or tenant carries on, or seeks to carry on, therein,
not to the personal, business, or financial circumstances of such owner or tenant
or any other party with interest in the property.

visibility from Route 31 and is not as desirable from a retail standpoint. Additionally, there is an
opportunity for shared parking with the professional office building.
The shopping center recently has struggled and lost multiple tenants and this use will assist in
revitalizing the center and capitalize on the public space which is the true essence and identity
of the center. There are no uses similar to the proposed use in close proximity to this location
however there is a large employment base within a mile radius (see attached business park

BeerAbility Lake Zurich, LLC ("BeerAbility") and its affiliated entities operate craft
beer taverns in Round Lake Heights, North Chicago and Lake Zurich (which will be

4117 WShamrock Lanewhich is owned by GNS Properties LLC

In order to operate as a craft beer tavern, BeerAbility needs to obtain a zoning
variance for parking, as the current zoning does not permit the necessary number
of spaces. However, ample parking exists for the planned use.
In addition, BeerAbility needs to obtain a use variance to operate as a tavern in
this specific rental unit. As the retail center already houses a restaurant (which
serves alcohol] and a liquor store, the I ntei ded uSe vvi!! not alter in any vvay the

Table 32 of the City of McHenry Zoning Ordinance provides that in recommending approval or conditional
approval of a variance, the Planning and Zoning Commission shall transmit to the City Council written
findings that all of the conditions listed below apply to the requested action.
Please resRond to each of these conditions as it relates to your request.
1 Special Circumstances Not Found Elsewhere
Special circumstances exist that are particular to the property for which the variance is sought and that do not
apply generally to other properties in the same zoning district; and these circumstances are not of so general
or recurrent a nature as to make it reasonably practical to provide a general regulation to cover them.
The site has a variety of uses, and while it's a small retail center, the center shares
parking with a professional_ office building and a bank. There is no room to expand
parking on -site or adjacent thereto and practically, many of the uses complement one
another as demands on parking for one use at one time are not the same for another
use. Therefore opportunities for shared parking exist. Ample parking exists.
2 Circumstances Relate to Propert�y
Since a variance will affect the character of its surroundings long after a property changes hands, the special
circumstances referenced herein relate only to the physical character of the land or building(s) for which a
variance is sought, such as dimensions, topography, or soil conditions; and they do not concern any business
or activity the present or prospective owner or tenant carries on or seeks to carry on therein, or to the
personal, business or financial circumstances of such owner or tenant or any other party with interest in the
property.
As stated above, ample parking current exists, and will continue to exist in the future.
3 Not Resulting from Applicant Action
The special circumstances that are the basis for a variance have not resulted from any act of the applicant or
of any other parry with interest in the property.
The special circumstances that are the basis for a variance have not resulted from any
act of the owner, GNS Properties LLC, or the tenant, Beel Ability Lake ZLtrich LLC.
4. Unnecessary Hardship
The strict application of the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance would result in unnecessary and undue
hardship upon the applicant, as distinguished from a mere inconvenience.
Strict application of the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance would make it
impossible to operate the planned business.
5 Preserves Rights Conferred by District
A variance is necessary for the applicant to preserve and enjoy a substantial property right possessed by
other properties in the same zoning district, and does not confer a special privilege ordinarily denied to other
properties in the district.
The variance will permit use of the empty space and available parking without
conferring any special privileges.
6. Necessary for Use of Property
The granting of a variance is necessary not because it will increase the applicant's economic return, although
it may have this effect, but because without a variance the applicant will be deprived of any reasonable use
or enjoyment of the property.
Without the requested parking variance, the applicant will not be able to operate the
intended business in this location.
7. Not Alter Local Character
The granting of a variance will not alter the essential character of the locality nor substantially impair
environmental quality, property values, or public safety or welfare in the vicinity.
The granting of the variance will not alter the character of the locality, property value
or public safety. We provide a safe, well -maintained facility.
8 Consistent with Zoning Ordinance and Comprehensive Plan
The granting of the variance will be in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the Zoning Ordinance
and Comprehensive Plan of the City, as viewed in light of any changes conditions since their adoption.
Our establishment will operate in har��ony with the Comprehensive plan. of the pity.
We provide a premium experience for all of our guests.

of the property.

Table 32(A) of the City of McHenry Zoning Ordinance provides that in recommending approval or
conditional approval of a use variance, the Planning and Zoning Commission shall transmit to the City
Council written findings that all of the conditions listed below apply to the requested action.
Please respond to each of these conditions as it relates to your request.
1. Practical Difficulties or Particular Hardship
The strict application of the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance relating to the use of the buildings or
structures, or the use of the land, would result in unnecessary and undue hardship upon the applicant, as
distinguished from a mere inconvenience.
The property owner, GNS Properties LLC, has been unable to rent the applicant's
space at 4117 W Shamrock for many years. The applicant, BeerAbility Lake
Zurich, LLC, is in the business of operating craft beer taverns and would be unable
io operate its primary business at the location without a variance.
2. Reasonable Return
The property cannot yield a reasonable rehtrn if permitted to be used only under the conditions allowed
by the Zoning Ordinance for the pertinent zoning district.
As stated above, the property owner has continually lost money due to
maintenance and upkeep expenditures on this property without a tenant. The
applicant has entered into a long-term lease to rectify this situation, but this lease is
contingent on the ability to operate as a craft beer tavern.
3. Unique Circumstance
Special circumstances exist that are peculiar to the propet•ty for which the use variance is sought. which do
not apply generally to other properties in the same zoning district.
The property has very limited visibility from the adjacent roadways as it is setback
significantly from Shamrock Lane and the retail units individually are not visible
to a driver on SR 31. This limited visibility affects the ability of businesses to
thrive in this property; however, the applicant believes its requested use will be
able to overcome the limited vislblity issue over time,
of 2
4. Not Alter Local Character
The granting of the use variance will not alter the essential character of the locality nor substantially
impair environmental quality, property values, or public safety or welfare in the vicinity.
The retail center currently includes an Italian restaurant which serves alcohol and a
food and liquor store. Addition of a craft beer tavern would not change the
character of the area in any way, but in fact would enhance the area by removing a
vacant unit from the retail center.
5. Consistent with Comprehensive Plan

AGENDA SUPPLEMENT
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Derik Morefield, City Administrator
FOR: September 19, 2016 Regular City Council Meeting
RE: Request for Class A Liquor License from BeerAbility Lake Zurich, LLC d/b/a
BeerAbility located at 4117 W. Shamrock Lane and Ordinance increasing
number of Class A liquor licenses in effect from 26 to 27.
ATT: Application, Supporting Documentation and Proposed Ordinance
AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY:
Or. Jason Newman, President of BeerAbility Lake Zurich, LLC submitted an application for a
Class A liquor license to operate BeerAbility located at 4117 W. Shamrock Lane in the Liberty
Square retail center. The Class A license authorizes the sale of alcoholic liquors for
consumption on premises and retail sale of packaged liquors.
BACKGROUND:
Mr. Newman owns and operates two BeerAbility locations in Round Lake Heights and North
Chicago. Upon approval of the liquor license, IN Newman told staff he intends to add video
gaming to the business though remains committed to maintaining his successful business plan,
which is to operate a friendly neighborhood bar offering an extensive menu of craft beers, good
food, sports entertainment, and a fun gaming environment. Examples of current Class A
licensed businesses in McHenry are Vickie's Place, The Old Bridge Tavern, and Village Squire of
McHenry.
Mr. Newman is conversant with the Illinois Liquor Control regulations including new state
requirements that went into effect on July 1st that require all employees of state liquor
licensed businesses to obtain BASSET certification. He met with the Mayor, was successfully
fingerprinted by McHenry Police, paid all associated fees, and all required documents were
submitted.
The City of McHenry is dedicated to providing its citizens, businesses, and visitors with the highest qua/ity of programs and
services in acustomer-oriented, effrcient, and fiscally responsib/e manner.
ANALYSIS:
Staff contacted Round Lake Heights and North Chicago for references and was told by each
agency that Mr. Newman is a welcomed member of the business community and a supporter of
local community events, with no incidents or violations reported. A link to the business
website is: http://beerabilitybar.com/.
As identified in the previous agenda supplement regarding the granting of a Conditional Use for
the proposed use, Mr. Newman has identified that it is his intent to apply for a State Video
Gaming License upon receipt of the local liquor license to be able to offer video gaming at the
establishment.
RECOMMENDATION:
Therefore, if Council concurs, it is recommended that a motion be made to: 1) grant a Class A
liquor license as presented; and, 2) approve an Ordinance increasing the number of Class A
liquor licenses from 26 to 27.

The proposed use variance for food and alcohol service and consumption outdoors is ideally
suited for the subject property and the fountain provides an ideal centerpiece which
accentuates and provides a focal point for the outdoor space. The outdoor seating area will be
located immediately east of the fountain and includes eleven tables and provides seating for 40
people. An existing knee -wall surrounds the outdoor space and an entry gate will be
constructed at the opening at the location depicted below.
Proposed Entry Feature Location
Proposed Outdoor Seating Area Looking West at the Fountain
Although the proposed restaurant is not immediately adjacent, the center contains a wider 7-8'
sidewalk which will allow servers to access the outdoor area and patrons to utilize existing
stores within the center. Access to 329 Front, located immediately behind or to the west of the
fountain will be maintained and an approximately 5' walking area will exist within the outdoor
seating area so patrons do not have to walk around the area. Existing outdoor cameras and
cameras installed within the interior of the restaurant will be utilized to monitor the outdoor
dining area. Multiple benches exist around the outdoor space currently.

Below are the outdoor seating provisions included in the zoning ordinance and highlighted are
the regulations which require the requested use variance. In today's restaurant industry -all
restaurants require some type of outdoor seating in order to maximize their success and the
proposed location, with accompanying fountain provides an ideal setting. The use variance is
required to allow the service of food and alcohol outdoors and to allow the restaurant to
operate with outdoor seating past 10:00 p.m.
Staff does not have any concerns with the outdoor seating as -proposed provided all the
requirements for outdoor seating as stipulated below are met, and with the installation and
monitoring of the outdoor seating area with cameras, providing adequate ingress/egress for
patrons throughout the courtyard and along the sidewalk adjacent to the other businesses and
ensuring the courtyard area is adequately lit will address all staff's safety concerns.
Outdoor Seating (MC-15-1113)

hardship; reasonable return; unique circumstances; not altering local character and consistent
with the comprehensive plan. The existing outdoor seating area has already being fully
established by a decorative knee -wall. Staff has no concerns with this request and believes the
new business will be more of a destination -oriented place than an impulse business, although
being located on a major arterial the location is ideal for either.

Variance from the Off -Street Parking and Loading Requirement
PARKING FOR SHOPPING CENTERS
The number of parking spaces required for retail and personal service uses located in a
shopping center shall be as provided for shopping centers in Table 13 rather than the sum of
the spaces required for the individual uses. Except that the number of spaces for restaurants,
taverns, and drive-in facilities located in a shopping center, and for any establishment
occupying over 50 percent of the gross leasable area of the center, shall be as provided in Table
13 for these individual uses and shall be added to the number of spaces required under the
provisions for shopping centers for the balance of the uses in the center.
The base parking requirement for a shopping center of this size, approximately 16,200 square
feet, is 4 parking spaces/1,000 square feet of building floor area plus additional spaces for the
two restaurant uses (Lucky Louise's and Addison's Steakhouse). The applicant is seeking a
variance from the off-street parking and loading requirements. Currently the Fountain Shoppes
has 109 parking spaces and 122 are required. The applicant is required to have 52 parking
spaces; Lucky Louise's requires 28 and the rest of the uses in the center require 42.
The shopping center was constructed in 1998 and has had several restaurant uses over its
history. At the time it was constructed the city's current zoning ordinance required 20
spaces/1,000 square feet for all restaurant uses and since that time was amended and sit down
restaurants now require 25 spaces/1,000 square feet of net floor area. Staff believes the center
has much more parking than is actually used on different days and different times mainly
because it's a center with a diversity of businesses and clientele, and peak hours vary from
business to business. Below are the approval criteria which must be satisfied for the variance
request.
As stated in the narrative the applicant's restaurant will not open until 4:00 p.m. on weekdays
and 11:00 a.m. on weekends. The other uses in the center have varying hours therefore there
is a lot of opportunity for shared parking. Additionally, there are over forty (40) parking spaces
to the west of the building in the rear which are never fully utilized. Practically, staff believes,
for the aforementioned reasons there is ample parking and in staff's opinion the restaurant
proposed is critical for sustaining the long-term viability of the center; will provide a
complimentary use for other uses in the center which will assist those businesses; the property
is setback considerably from Route 31 and is not as desirable from a retail standpoint than the
adjacent center to the south. The proposed use is a destination and the shopping center
recently lost multiple tenants and this use will assist in revitalizing the center and capitalize on
the public space which is the true essence and identity of the center.

In addition, as identified in Mr. Descher's request and included documentation, the proposed
use will include the service of alcohol upon approval of a liquor license and, upon issuance of a

of food and alcohol outside as well as operating of the restaurant with seating outdoors past

Want to open a small scale steak house rustic feel want outdoor seating and serve food and
alcohol in the courtyard area. One camera there now and will be monitored from inside the
restaurant and need a parking variance based on City ordinance. Hours of operation will be

constructed at the opening in the knee -wall that faces the parking lot.
Although the proposed restaurant is not immediately adjacent, the center contains a wider 7-8'
sidewalk which will allow servers to access the outdoor area and patrons to utilize existing
stores within the center. Access to 329 Front, located immediately behind or to the west of the
fountain will be maintained and an approximately 5' walking area will exist within the outdoor
seating area so patrons do not have to walk around the area. Existing outdoor cameras and
cameras installed within the interior of the restaurant will be utilized to monitor the outdoor
dining area.
The outdoor seating provisions included in the zoning ordinance listed below are the
regulations which require the requested use variance:
Preparation and service of food outside is prohibited.
Service and consumption of alcohol outside is prohibited.
Operation of outdoor seating area is only permitted when the business for which the
Outdoor Seating Permit was issued is open but in no instance prior to 7:00 AM or after
10:00 PM.
In today's restaurant industry, all restaurants require some type of outdoor seating in order to
maximize their success and the proposed location, with accompanying fountain provides an
ideal setting. The use variance is required to allow the service of food and alcohol outdoors and
to allow the restaurant to operate with outdoor seating past 10:00 p.m.
Staff does not have any concerns with the outdoor seating as proposed provided all the
requirements for outdoor seating required are met, and all staff's safety concerns have been
addressed in the proposal with the installation and monitoring of the outdoor seating area with

cameras, providing adequate ingress/egress for patrons and ensuring the courtyard area is
adequately lit. Staff believes the new business will be more of a destination -oriented place
than an impulse business, although being located on a major arterial the location is ideal for
either.
The base parking requirement for a shopping center of this size, approximately 16,200 square
feet, is 4 parking spaces/1,000 square feet of building floor area plus additional spaces for the
two restaurant uses (Lucky Louise's and Addison's Steakhouse). The applicant is seeking a
variance from the off-street parking and loading requirements. Currently the Fountain Shoppes
has 109 parking spaces and 122 are required. The applicant is required to have 52 parking
spaces; Lucky Louise's requires 28 and the rest of the uses in the center require 42.
The shopping center was constructed in 1998 and has had several restraint uses over its history.
At the time it was constructed the city's current zoning ordinance required 20 spaces/1,000
square feet for all restaurant uses and since that time was amended and sit down restaurants
now require 25 spaces/1,000 square feet of net floor area. Staff believes the center has much
more parking than is actually used on different days and different times mainly because it's a
center with a diversity of businesses and clientele, and peak hours vary from business to
business. The approval criteria which must be satisfied for the variance request were
presented.
The applicant's restaurant will not open until 4:00 p.m. on weekdays and 11:00 a.m. on
weekends. In staff's opinion the restaurant proposed is critical for sustaining the long-term
viability of the center; will provide a complimentary use for other uses in the center which will
assist those businesses; the property is setback considerably from Route 31 and is not as
desirable from a retail standpoint as the adjacent center to the south. The proposed use is a
destination and the shopping center recently lost multiple tenants and this use will assist in
revitalizing the center and capitalize on the public space which is the true essence and identity
of the center.
Director of Economic Development Martin stated Staff is recommending approval of a Use
Variance to allow a restaurant with outdoor seating including service of food and alcohol
outside as well as operating of the restaurant with seating outdoors past 10:00 p.m. and any
other variances required effectuating the aforementioned request on the Subject Property
subject to the following conditions:
• Interior cameras shall be installed within 335/337 N Front which will allow employees to
monitor the outdoor seating area at all times;

Staff is also recommending approval of a 13-space parking variance from the off-street parking
requirements at 335-337 N Front Street, and Staff finds all requirements in Table 32 of the
zoning ordinance have been satisfied.
Vice Chairman Thacker invited questions and/or comments from the Commission.
Commissioner Meyer asked if the outdoor seating is required to be included in the square
footage given for the restaurant. Director of Economic Development Martin stated it is
required but it should be considered. Commissioner Meyer inquired as to the hours of
operation. Mr. Descher stated they will be open during the week from 5-11 p.m. and on
weekends (Saturday and Sunday) 11 a.m. — 11 p.m. Commissioner Meyer asked if the tables
and chairs in the courtyard will be left outside or put away each night after closing. Mr.
Descher stated they plan to leave the courtyard furniture in place outside after closing hours.
Commissioner Sobotta asked if Centegra in the shopping center had open hours on Saturday.
Mr. Descher stated he did not believe they do.
Commissioner Miller asked if Mr. Descher has spoken with the property manager about noise
and maintenance of the courtyard fountain. Suzanne Cannon, owner of Fountain Shoppes of
McHenry Shopping Center, 3418 Waukegan Rd., McHenry, IL 60050 was sworn in by Vice
Chairman Thacker to address Commissioner Miller's question.
Ms. Cannon stated all outdoor seating will be in front of the fountain and a distance from the
fountain. The fountain will also be controlled during adverse weather conditions to avoid
overspray and excessive noise. Ms. Cannon stated Mr. Descher will be trained on how to
adjust the height and spray of the fountain, as well. It is an owner occupied shopping center
and their employees will be trained on fountain maintenance also. The chemical smell will be
monitored and is not expected to upset the dining experience. The fountain is sometimes loud
but Ms. Cannon stated it will be behind the seating area and should not disrupt diners.

SECTION 2: In granting said Use Variance, the City Council finds that the requirements of
Table 32(A) of the Zoning Ordinance have been met in that:

provisions of the Zoning Ordinance relating to the use of the buildings or structures,
or the use of the land, would result in unnecessary and undue hardship upon the

2, The property cannot yield a reasonable return if permitted to be used only under
the conditions allowed by the regulations in the Zoning Ordinance for the pertinent
zoning district.

to the property for which the use variance is sought and that they do not apply
generally to other properties in the same zoning district.
4. The granting of the use variance will not alter the essential character of the locality
nor substantially impair environmental quality, property values, or public safety or
welfare in the vicinity.
5. The granting of a use variance will be in harmony with the general purpose and

SECTION 4: In granting said Variance the City Council finds that the requirements of
Table 32 of the Zoning Ordinance have been met in that:
1. Special circumstances exist that are peculiar to the property for which the
variance is sought and that do not apply generally to other properties in the
same zoning district. And these circumstances are not of so general or recurrent
a nature as to make it reasonably practical to provide a general regulation to
cover them.
2. The special circumstances referenced herein relate only to the physical character
of the land or building(s) for which the variance is sought, such as dimension,
topography, or soil conditions. They do not concern any business or activity the
present or prospective owner or tenant carries on, or seeks to carry on, therein,
not to the personal, business, or financial circumstances of such owner or tenant
or any other party with interest in the property.
3. The special circumstances that are the basis for the variance have not resulted
from any act of the applicant or of any other party with interest in the property.
4. The strict application of the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance would result in
unnecessary and undue hardship upon the applicant, as distinguished from a
mere inconvenience.
5. A Variance is necessary for the applicant to preserve and enjoy a substantial
property right possessed by other properties in the same zoning district and does
not confer a special privilege ordinarily denied to other properties in the district.
6. The granting of a Variance is necessary not because it will increase the
applicant's economic return, although it may have this effect, but because
without the variance the applicant will be deprived of any reasonable use or
enjoyment of the property.
7. The granting of a Variance will not alter the essential character of the locality nor
substantially impair environmental quality, property values, or public safety or
welfare in the vicinity.
8. The granting of a Variance will be in harmony with the general purpose and
intent of the Zoning Ordinance and of the Comprehensive Plan of the City, as
viewed in light of any changed conditions since their adoption.

Staff Analysis
The proposed use variance for food and alcohol service and consumption outdoors is ideally
suited for the subject property and the fountain provides an ideal centerpiece which
accentuates and provides a focal point for the outdoor space. The outdoor seating area will be
located immediately east of the fountain and includes eleven tables and provides seating for 40
people. An .existing knee -wall surrounds the outdoor space and an entry gate will be
constructed at the opening at the location depicted below.
Proposed Outdoor Seating Area Looking West at the Fountain
Although the proposed restaurant is not immediately adjacent, the center contains a wider 7-8'
sidewalk which will allow servers to access the outdoor area and patrons to utilize existing
stores within the center. Access to 329 Front, located immediately behind or to the west of the
fountain will be maintained and an approximately 5' walking area will exist within the outdoor
seating area so patrons do not have to walk around the area. Existing outdoor cameras and
cameras installed within the interior of the restaurant will be utilized to monitor the outdoor
dining area. Multiple benches exist around the outdoor space currently.

Below are the outdoor seating provisions included in the zoning ordinance and highlighted are
the regulations which require the requested use variance. In today's restaurant industry all
restaurants require some type of outdoor seating in order to maximize their success and the
proposed location, with accompanying fountain provides an ideal setting. The use variance is
required to allow the service of food and alcohol outdoors and to allow the restaurant to
operate with outdoor seating past 10:00 p.m.
Staff does not have any concerns with the outdoor seating as -proposed provided all the
requirements for outdoor seating as stipulated below are met, and with the installation and
monitoring of the outdoor seating area with cameras, providing adequate ingress/egress for
patrons throughout the courtyard and along the sidewalk adjacent to the other businesses and
ensuring the courtyard area is adequately lit will address all staff's safety concerns.

hardship; reasonable return; unique circumstances; not altering local character Cl"d consistent
with the comprehensive plan. The existing outdoor seating area has already being fully
established by a decorative knee -wall. Staff has no concerns with this request and believes the
new business will be more of a destination -oriented place than an impulse business, although
being located on a major arterial the location is ideal for either.

provisions for shopping centers for the balance of the uses in the center.

The base parking requirement for a shopping center of this size, approximately 16,200 square
feet, is 4 parking spaces/1,000 square feet of building floor area plus additional spaces for the
two restaurant uses (Lucky Louises and Addison's Steakhouse). The applicant is seeking a
variance from the off-street parking and loading requirements. Currently the Fountain Shoppes
has 109 parking spaces and 122 are required. The applicant is required to have 52 parking
spaces; Lucky Louises requires 28 and the rest of the uses in the center require 42.
The shopping center was constructed in 1998 and has had several restraint uses over its history.
At the time it was constructed the city's current zoning ordinance required 20 spaces/1,000
square feet for all restaurant uses and since that time was amended and sit down restaurants
now require 25 spaces/ square feet of net floor area. Staff believes the center has much
more parking than is actually used on different days and different times mainly because it's a
center with a diversity of businesses and clientele, and peak hours vary from business to
business. Below are the approval criteria which must be satisfied for the variance request.
Table 32 of the Zoning Ordinance
1. Special circumstances exist that are peculiar to the property for which the
variance is sought and that do not apply generally to other properties in the
same zoning district. And these circumstances are not of so general or recurrent
a nature as to make it reasonably practical to provide a general regulation to
cover them.
2. The special circumstances referenced herein relate only to the physical character
of the land or building(s) for which the variance is sought, such as dimension,
topography, or soil conditions. They do not concern any business or activity the
present or prospective owner or tenant carries on, or seeks to carry on, therein,
not to the personal, business, or financial circumstances of such owner or tenant
or any other party with interest in the property.
3. The special circumstances that are the basis for the variance have not resulted
from any act of the applicant or of any other party with interest in the property.
4. The strict application of the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance would result in
unnecessary and undue hardship upon the applicant, as distinguished from a
mere inconvenience.
5. A Variance is necessary for the applicant to preserve and enjoy a substantial
property right possessed by other properties in the same zoning district and does
not confer a special privilege ordinarily denied to other properties in the district.

6. The granting of a Variance is necessary not because it will increase the
applicant's economic return, although it may have this effect, but because
without the variance the applicant will be deprived of any reasonable use or
enjoyment of the property.
7. The granting of a Variance will not alter the essential character of the locality nor
substantially impair environmental quality, property values, or public safety or
welfare in the vicinity.
8. The granting of a Variance will be in harmony with the general purpose and
intent of the Zoning Ordinance and of the Comprehensive Plan of the City, as
viewed in light of any changed conditions since their adoption.
9. The Variance requested is the minimum required to provide the applicant with
reasonable use and enjoyment of the property.
As stated in the narrative the applicant's restaurant will not open until 4:00 p.m. on weekdays
and 11:00 a.m. on weekends. The other uses in the center have varying hours therefore there
is a lot of opportunity for shared parking. Additionally, there are over forty parking spaces to
the west of the building in the rear which are never fully utilized. Practically, staff believes, for
the aforementioned reasons there is ample parking and in staff's opinion the restaurant
proposed is critical for sustaining the long-term viability of the center; will provide a
complimentary use for other uses in the center which will assist those businesses; the property
is setback considerably from Route 31 and is not as desirable from a retail standpoint than the
adjacent center to the south. The proposed use is a destination and the shopping center
recently lost multiple tenants and this use will assist in revitalizing the center and capitalize on
the public space which is the true essence and identity of the center.
Staff Recommendation Prior to Public Hearing
Approval of a Use Variance to allow a restaurant with outdoor seating including service of food
and alcohol outside as well as operating of the restaurant with seating outdoors past 10:00 p.m.
and any other variances required effectuating the aforementioned request on the Subject
Property subject to the following conditions:
• Interior cameras shall be installed within 335/337 N Front which will allow employees to
monitor the outdoor seating area at all times;
• All other provisions of the outdoor seating ordinance shall be met;
• Outdoor seating area shall maintain existing lighting and be in compliance with the city's

AGENDA SUPPLEMENT
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Derik Morefield, City Administrator
FOR: September 19, 2016 Regular City Council Meeting
RE: Request for Class A Liquor License from Addison's Steakhouse LLC located at
335-337 Front Street and Ordinance increasing number of Class A liquor
licenses in effect.
ATT: Application, Supporting Documentation and Proposed Ordinance
AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY:
Mr. Jonathan Descher, President of Addison's Steakhouse LLC submitted an application for a
Class A liquor license to operate Addison's Steakhouse in two vacant units in the Fountain
Shoppes retail center. If approved, the attached ordinance increasing the number of Class A
liquor licenses in effect is required.
BACKGROUND:
The Class A license authorizes the sale of alcoholic liquors for consumption on premises and
retail sale of packaged liquors.
Addison's Steakhouse is proposed to be a family owned and operated small-scale steakhouse
with outdoor seating in the courtyard located east of the fountain to accommodate 11 tables,
and a sports lounge atmosphere in the bar area. While video gaming is proposed, Mr. Descher
has identified that he remains committed to the broader context of his business plan. Examples
of current Class A licensed businesses in McHenry are Bimbos Italian Restaurant, The Old Bridge
Tavern, and Village Squire of McHenry.
Mr. Descher is conversant with the Illinois Liquor Control regulations including new state
requirements that went into effect on July 1st that require all employees of state liquor
licensed businesses to obtain BASSET certification. He met with the Mayor, was successfully
fingerprinted by McHenry Police, paid all associated fees, and all required documents were
submitted.
Mr. Descher and his family reside in McHenry and he was a former manager of Twisted Moose
on Route 31.
The City of McHenry is dedicated to providing its citizens, businesses, and visitors with the highest quality of programs and
services in acustomer-oriented, efficient, and frseally responsible manner.
ANALYSIS:
As noted in the previous agenda supplement regarding the granting of use variances for the
proposed use, Mr. Descher has identified that it is his intent to apply for a State Video Gaming
License upon receipt of the local liquor license to be able to offer video gaming at the
establishment.
RECOMMENDATION:
Therefore, if Council concurs, it is recommended that a motion be made to: 1) grant a Class A
liquor license as presented, and, 2) approve an Ordinance increasing the number of Class A
liquor licenses by one.

Here is a little about the restaurant and myself. My family have been members of the community for io+years and
we plan on staying to raise our 2 young girls and operate a successful restaurant. We own a home in the Boone
Creek neighborhood by Curran Road so roots have been set in the community. I believe that the family friendly
approach that we will bring to the community with our restaurant will be very beneficial to the relationships we
will be able to build with customers and fellow McHenry business owners. I have 11+ years of restaurant/bar
management experience and have a very hands-on management approach that will ensure that the restaurant
Will be run to very best of its capabilities on a day to day basis. I actually used to serve you and your husband often
about io years ago at Bimbos in McHenry. I also am a UW-Whitewater alum like yourself, earning a bachelor
degree in business administration from there in 2004. My sister is also attending the school now for a degree in
special education, which I believe I read in your bio as well that you taught for 30+ years. It is a small world.
Addison's Steakhouse will be a single family owned and operated smaller -scale steakhouse with a sports lounge
atmosphere in the bar area. A trend developing in the steakhouse industry is moving away from fine dining
atmosphere with a more relaxed dining experience. Our customers will feel comfortable in jeans and a t-shirt if
they choose or a 3-piece suit if that is how they feel most comfortable. Our customer will not feel as if there is any
type of dress code to abide by. A big trend in the sports bar industry is moving away from the typical loud and
crazy bar atmosphere that serves that all frozen and overpriced poor quality food. Consumers do not have to
sacrifice anything to go see their favorite sports team. They now realize that they have options to have a great
meal, drinks, atmosphere, and see the big game all at one time. McHenry has not tapped into this market yet
successfully and we believe that we can meet the needs of these potential customers with the concept that we have
developed with Addison's Steakhouse. Market research and target market evaluation of the area suggests that
Addison's Steakhouse is ideally situated to cater to this unfulfilled market segment. I believe we can be a beneficial
business member of the community by providing a great business to our city financially and hopefully aid in the
growing strength of our city.
I have already emailed a copy of my business plan to you, so please reference it if you want to get a better feel for
our concept or target market. Feel free to contact me anytime with any questions or concerns you may have. Thank
you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Jonathan Descher

AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY:
Council is being asked to consider a Conditional Use Permit to allow a tavern at 810 Front Street
Unit C.
BACKGROUND:
Southgate Retail Center is zoned C-5 Highway Commercial District and contains approximately
9,250 square -feet of retail/commercial space and 50 parking spaces. Currently Food Mart is
located at the southern end cap, PLS is located in the center and Soapbox Laundromat is
located on the northern end cap. The center has been owned by Ralph Hayward and his wife
for more than twenty years. Ralph and his wife also operate the laundromat located within
Southgate Center and previously managed the Food Mart.
Southgate Retail Center was constructed in 1972 and consists of approximately 9,250 square
feet of retail and commercial space anchored by the Food Mart, which is operated by the
applicant. Recently the unit immediately adjacent and to the north, occupied by Kiddy Korner
was vacated. This unit is approximately 2,400 square feet, and the applicant, Mr. Suchit (Sam)
Shah, is proposing to operate a tavern in the vacant unit.

www.ci.mchenry.il.us
In addition to the Food Mart, Mr. Shah operates liquor stores at Bull Valley/Charles Miller Road
and Illinois Route 31 as well as a location in the McHenry Plaza Shopping Center. The store
located in McHenry Plaza is part of the southern inline retail space adjacent to the vacant Aldi's
building. Additionally, the applicant owns and operates a tavern in the Village of Richmond and
is working on finalizing the purchase of the former McDonald's building located at the
northeast corner of Charles Miller Road and Bull Valley Road for redevelopment. The applicant
has owned and operated businesses in the City of McHenry for numerous years and continues
to invest in the City. Mr. Hayward and his wife have done the same and maintain Southgate
Retail Center impeccably.
Staff believes the proposed tavern use is an appropriate land use for the subject property.
Reviewing the requirements in Table 31 of the Zoning Ordinance, staff believes the proposed
project will not produce any additional adverse impacts to traffic, the environment, the
neighborhood, public service and facilities or public safety and health, than would any other
permitted use in the C-5 zoning district.
As previously identified, Mr. Shah has a history of operating successful businesses in the City
and does so in a professional manner. While the proposed use adjacent to the Food Mart will
be the first tavern the applicant has opened within the City, each of his other existing
businesses operate with a liquor license. The applicant is anticipating offering a wide variety of
specialty beers at the proposed tavern.
As identified in Mr. Shah's request and included documentation, the proposed use will include
the service of alcohol upon approval of a liquor license and, upon issuance of a local liquor
license it is his intent to request a Video. Gaming License from the State. The liquor license
request follows this agenda item and is conditioned upon the approval of this Use Variance.
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
On July 13, 2016 the Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously recommended approval (7-
0) of a conditional use permit to allow a tavern at 810 Front Street Unit C. A copy of the
minutes from this meeting have been provided for reference.
RECOMMENDATION:
Therefore, if the City Council concurs it is recommended that a motion be made to approve
the attached ordinance granting a conditional use permit to allow a tavern at 810 Front Street
Unit C.

Chairman Strach invited questions and/or comments from the Commission.
Commissioner Thacker inquired if the tavern will operate seven days a week. Mr. Shah replied
yes, it would.
Commissioner Miller asked what the anticipated occupancy of the property is expected to be.
Or, Shah replied the space is approximately 2400 square feet and depending on the setup he
could fit as many as 100 people; however occupancy will be determined by the building
department. Commissioner Miller inquired about parking and discussion ensued determining
parking requirements have been met but parking on the south side could be striped for
additional parking to be more visible. Mr. Shah believes the parking will be sufficient for the
use requested.
Director of Economic Development Martin inquired as to the number of employees for both the
Food Mart and the tavern. Mr. Shah responded there are 6 employees at the Food Mart with
only 3 working at any one time and the tavern may have 4 employees total.

AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY:
Or. Suchit (Sam) Shah, President of 3 Queens, Inc. submitted an application for a Class A liquor

licensed businesses to obtain BASSET certification. The applicant currently holds a Class F1
license for Sam's Liquors & Wine located at 520 S. Route 31 and a Class F2 license for Family
Food Mart located at 810 N. Front Street, Unit A, next door to this proposed business. Mr. Shah
met with the Mayor, was successfully fingerprinted by McHenry Police, paid all associated fees,
and all required documents were submitted
The City of McHenry is dedicated to providing its citizens, businesses, and visitors with the highest quality of programs and
services in acustomer-oriented, efficient, and fiscally responsible manner.
ANALYSIS:
As identified in the previous agenda supplement regarding the granting of a Conditional Use for
the proposed use, Mr. Shah has identified that it is his intent to apply for a State Video Gaming
License upon receipt of the local liquor license to be able to offer video gaming at the
establishment.
RECOMMENDATION:
Therefore, if Council concurs, it is recommended that a motion be made to: 1) grant a Class A
liquor license as presented, and, 2) approve the Ordinance increasing the number of Class A
liquor licenses by one.

AGENDA SUPPLEMENT
DATE: September 19, 2016
T0: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Jon M. Schmitt, Director of Public Works
RE: Public Works Facility Standby Generator Project
ATT: HR Green, Inc. Professional Services Agreement
AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY:
Staff requests City Council to consider a Professional Services Agreement with HR Green, Inc.
for the design, bidding and construction observation for the Public Works Facility Standby
Generator Project.
BACKGROUND:
Currently the Public Works Facility has very limited emergency standby electrical power
capabilities in the event of a power failure. Only two overhead doors on the east side of the
facility are operable during an electrical power outage. The need for a standby generator for
the entire building was emphasized in June 2011 when a very powerful wind storm left the
Public Works Facility without electrical power for several days. In addition, the Public Works
Facility currently houses an evidence room for the McHenry Police Department and has been
identified as the emergency backup facility should the McHenry Municipal Center not be
available due to a catastrophic event.
As part of the rehabilitation of Water Treatment Plant #2 a larger standby generator was
installed replacing the existing generator at that location. Staff proposes to utilize the generator
removed from Water Treatment Plant #2 at the Public Works Facility. This generator relocation
will require combining the two existing electrical services at the Public Works Facility into one,
the installation of an electrical transfer switch and miscellaneous conduit and wire installation.
The 2016/17 Public Works Facility Improvements Capital Improvement Program (CIP) includes
$270,000 for the Public Works Facility Standby Generator Project with funding from the sale of
the lease of the cellular telecommunication monopole tower located in the parking lot of the
Public Works Facility. City Council authorized the sale of the lease agreement in the amount of
$417,500 at the March 7, 2016 City Council Meeting.
ANALYSIS:
In an effort to be able to develop a scope of services to be used to solicit proposals for the
Public Works Facility Standby Generator Project, staff met with two electrical contractors to
review the project. Unfortunately, after several discussions, it was determined that due to the
complexity of the project a detailed design plan and contract proposal documents would be
required for contractors to fairly and accurately submit bid proposals in terms of scope and,
most importantly, cost. The development of these proposal documents require the expertise of
an electrical engineer and, thus, fall outside of the scope of expertise of the City Project
Engineer. The City Engineer, FIR Green, maintains the specific expertise to be able to develop
the scope of services for this project and, therefore, have been asked to submit a Professional
Services Agreement for the project. The scope of work includes engineering design, bidding
services, and construction observation services. The engineering services fee is a time and
material amount not to exceed $44,340.00. It is important to identify that once construction
begins it may be possible for the City Project Engineer to provide construction management for
the project. With that possibility, the contracted construction observation from FIR Green will
be used on an as needed basis and as determined by the City Project Engineer and, as such,
final costs for the project may not reach the requested amount of $44,340.00. However, this
will not be able to be determined until the project is further along.
RECOMMENDATION:
Therefore, if Council concurs, it is recommended that a motion be made to approve the
attached Professional Services Agreement with HR Green, Inc. for the Public Works Facility
Standby Generator Project in an amount not to exceed $44,340.00 and authorization to
publicly bid the Public Works Facility Standby Generator Project.

1.0 Project Understanding
1.General Understanding
The purpose of this Project is to provide Engineering Services to electrically connect
an existing engine -generator to the Public Works Building to provide standby power

1. The engine -generator was built in approximately 1977 and its rating is
approximately 200 kW.
2. For the Marathon model 500FDF4655AA generator, certain "wear parts" are still
available, including bearings, diodes, rectifier, and exciter stator.
3. The generator can be reconnected from 480 VAC wye to 120/240 VAC delta.
4. For the Caterpillar Model 3306 diesel engine, parts are still readily available.
5. Connected load in the Public Works Building is approximately 350 kW.
2.0 Scope of Services
The CLIENT agrees to employ COMPANY to perform the following services:
Task 1: Design
1. Conduct akick-off meeting or teleconference with the CLIENT to develop a
CLIENT -COMPANY understanding of the Project personnel, schedule,
deliverables, and communication protocols.
2. Visit the site to verify existing conditions. Staff from COMPANY for site visit will
