or unoccupied for a period of ten (10) days, or in case of the non-payment of the rent reserved hereby, or any

occupying the Premises or any part thereof, and Lessor may use such force in and about expelling and removing
Lessee and other person as may reasonably be necessary and Lessor may repossess himself of the Premises as of his
former estate, but such entry of the Premises shall not constitute a trespass or forcible entry or detainer, nor shall it cause
a forfeiture of rents due by virtue thereof, nor a waiver of any covenant, agreement or promise in this lease contained,
to be performed by Lessee.
Lessee hereby waives all notice of any election made by Lessor hereunder, demand for rent, notice to quit,
demand for possession, and any and all notices and demand whatsoever, of any and every nature, which may or shall

single instance or repeatedly, after it falls due, or after knowledge of any breach hereof by Lessee, or the giving or

Premises, or any part thereof may, but need not (except as provided by Illinois statute) be relet by Lessor, for the account

after paying the expenses of reletting and collection, including commissions to agents, and including also expense of
redecorating, Lessee agrees to pay and satisfy all deficiency;
but the acceptance of a tenant by Lessor, in place of Lessee, shall not operate as a cancellation hereof, nor to release
Lessee from the performance of any covenant, promise or agreement herein contained, and performance by any
substituted tenant by the payment of rent, or otherwise, shall constitute only satisfactio n pro tanto of the obligations
of Lessee arising hereunder.

fees of attorneys, agents and others retained by Lessor, incurred in enforcing any of the obligations of Lessee under

Lessee shall pay Lessor upon request the amount paid out by Lessor in such behalf, including Lessor's costs, expenses

Agenda Item Summary:
The McHenry Police Department has been providing emergency dispatch services for the

provides multi-jurisdictional emergency dispatch services for (16) sixteen different police and
fire agencies. The Marengo Rescue Squad District, Marengo Fire Protection District, Union Fire

Analysis:
With the approval of the NERCOM Board of Directors, the City has revised the fee structure for
dispatch services that would take effect with the newly proposed agreement on May 1st, 2024.
The newly proposed agreement is set for a five (5) year term.
Beginning on May 1, 2024, each agency shall pay annual dispatch fees to McHenry, to be paid
no later than the 10th day of each month (“Dispatch Fees”). Dispatch Fees for Fiscal Year
2024/2025 shall be calculated at the rate of $33.45 per service call (“Service Call Rate”) and
$15.00 per traffic stop (“Traffic Stop Rate”) multiplied by the number of service calls and Traffic
calls dispatched by McHenry for each respective agency during calendar year 2023.
Commencing on each anniversary date of this Agreement, the Service Call Rate and Traffic Stop
Rate shall each increase by 3.5% each year (“Adjusted Dispatch Rates”) and the Adjusted
Dispatch Rates shall be multiplied by the number of service calls and traffic stops dispatched by
McHenry for each agency in the prior calendar year, thereby arriving at the Adjusted Dispatch
Fees for the next year of Dispatch Services to be paid on the same annual basis as the Original
Term Dispatch Fee.

America, on September 22, 2023. Part of that event was to paint the Alexander Leigh Center for
Autism. Nine individuals from the Police Department volunteered their off -duty time as part of

the event. He presented an award to Chief Birk and the McHenry Police Department in
recognition of the type of employees working for the Police Department.
Lead Telecommunicator Promotions – Ryan Miller & Kate Wilbur
Chief Birk explained that the City runs a regional dispatch center, NERCOM, which is the largest
in the County. The center dispatches for sixteen fire and police agencies county -wide. NERCOM
is a partnership and was set up to be conservative, but leadership recognized they needed a first-
line supervisor on each shift. They developed a plan to create Lead Telecommunicators, who are
on-duty supervisors but also are working supervisors. Justin Liebach was the first Lead
Telecommunicator. There are four working shifts in NERCOM, and Dexter Barrows was promoted
in May of 2019 to fill the second seat. Through fiscal responsibilities, they have now been
approved to hire the last two Lead Telecommunicators.
Chief Birk introduced the police chiefs from Harvard and Woodstock and thanked them for their
support and partnership. Ryan Miller and Kate Wilbur were each called up and introduced and
recognized for their promotions. They each had family members pin on their new badges. Chief
Birk thanked their family members, the police staff, and friends for coming and supporting the
new Lead Telecommunicators. Alderman Glab commented that we used to have unrest in the
Police Department, but wanted to thank this new group because the current Police Department
has the feeling of a large family that supports each other.

Individual Action Items
Class A Liquor License – The Kraken/4509 W. Elm Street
Alderman Glab stated that we do have a lot of empty buildings that need filled, but there comes
a time when we have too many bars and liquor establishments in town. Years back we were a
party town but now we want to be a community for families. Unless something interesting comes
in, he won’t support any more liquor licenses. Alderman McClatchey asked the petitioner when
they planned to open if approved and Brandon Barnes, the petitioner, responded that they hope
to open in May.
A conceptual presentation was shown to the Council and Mr. Barnes spoke through each slide to
explain the plan moving forward. He stated that McHenry is much like the town he is from, and
he wants to open this type of establishment that would fit in nicely in our suburban area. The
property does need a lot of work, both inside and out. The plan would be to open at 6:30 a.m.
for coffee and breakfast sandwiches. Many bars in the area open in the afternoon, but he also
wants to cater for the morning crowd that could work remotely or relax from his establishment.
Alderwoman Miller asked Mr. Barnes if he would still be willing to move forward with the project
without video gaming, and he stated that he is committed to the project. Her concern is that he
is not local and may not be as accessible living far away. He explained that he does have partners
in the area and that they would find a local manager that lives within 10 miles of the City. A
motion as made by Alderman Strach and seconded by Alderman McClatchey to approve a Class
A liquor license to the Kraken at 4509 W Elm Street, pending the successful completion of a
background check and obtaining a local manager within 10 miles of the City of McHenry within
30 days of opening. Roll Call Vote: 6-ayes: Alderman Santi, Alderman McClatchey, Alderwoman
Bassi, Alderman Strach, Alderman Koch, Alderwoman Miller. 1-nay: Alderman Glab. 0 absent, 0
abstained. Motion carried.
Video Gaming License – The Kraken/4509 W Elm Street
Alderwoman Miller stated that her concern has nothing to do with the petitioner but rather with
his expected absenteeism as an owner. She stated that we hold gaming owners to a high
standard, and we have no way to judge how this would work with an owner living far away. She
would like the business to prove they are viable for a year to establish a level of credibility with
their current business plan. Alderman Santi agreed with Alderwoman Miller. A motion was made
by Alderman McClatchey and seconded by Alderman Strach to approve a video gaming license
to The Kraken at 4509 W Elm Street. Roll Call Vote: 2-ayes: Alderman McClatchey, Alderman
Santi. 5-nays: Alderman Santi, Alderman Glab, Alderwoman Bassi, Alderman Koch, Alderwoman
Miller. 0-absent, 0 abstained. Motion failed.

Alderman Santi urged the petitioner to apply for gaming again once they have been in business
for a year.
Whiskey Diablo Economic Incentive Agreement Amendment
Mayor Jett explained that Whiskey Diablo has run into issues getting their certificate of
occupancy because of unexpected delays in the construction and buildout process of the new
restaurant. Multiple Council members voiced their support of extending this agreement because
the problems have been caused by no fault of the owner . A motion was made by Alderwoman
Miller and seconded by Alderman Santi to approve a second amendment to the Amended
Economic Incentive Agreement between the City of McHenry and 1325 Riverside Inc. d/b/a
Whiskey Diablo. Roll Call: Vote: 7-ayes: Alderman Santi, Alderman Glab, Alderman McClatchey,
Alderwoman Bassi, Alderman Strach, Alderman Koch, Alderwoman Miller . 0-nays, 0-absent, 0-
abstained. Motion carried.
Referendum Authorizing Ordinance – Recreation Center Expansion
Parks and Recreation Director Bill Hobson stated that this ordinance comes forward after an
extensive discussion on the expansion of the Rec Center at the December 4 th meeting. After
having an architect review the construction numbers, it is estimated that it will now take $45
million to build the outdoor aquatics center, the indoor aquatics center, and the indoor
gymnasium. The proposed gymnasium has been expanded to three courts in order to
accommodate the programs and tournaments that our community needs. There would also be
an indoor walking track included with the gymnasium. Of the cost increases, the indoor pool
construction cost remained the same. The outdoor aquatic center and gymnasium had the big
cost increases. Although the total project cost increa sed dramatically, the tax rate is actually
lower than in 2017 because of the growth of McHenry and the increase in the EAV.
Alderman Glab asked how much was owed on the bonds for the current Rec Center, and Finance
Director Lynch stated that it is about $1.7 million and that is to be paid off in 2035. It is not
feasible to pay those bonds off early because bonds do not work like a loan. Alderwoman Bassi
asked how many members we have at the Rec Center and how many are residents. Director
Hobson stated that we have about 1239 members, of which about 75% are residents. A long
discussion was had regarding the number of residents using the facility, the estimated number
of residents that may use it once it is expanded, and what the membership fees would be if
approved. Director Hobson estimated that we could accommodate about 1,000 people in one
day with the new facility, assuming the outdoor aquatics center is included.
City Administrator Derik Morefield reminded the Council that our current outdoor pool is nearing
the end of its life, and a decision will have to be made soon about replacing that facility even if
this proposed expansion is voted down. Alderman Santi asked about what it would take to
educate the residents and voters on the issue. Open houses and presentations to many
organizations would be held. Alderman Glab stated that he is not comfortable taking this for a
vote without having more information to give our residents. He would also rather wait until a
City Council

general election to get a better voter turnout. Alderwoman Miller stated that we live in a
different world now since we last tried the referendum because COVID has taught us that we can
communicate better to get the word out and educate our public. She does not want to wait
because costs are increasing, and this is already goi ng to be a long project if approved.
Alderman Strach stated that he feels rushed and is not ready to take this to the voters at this
time. He is concerned that we will be taxing residents for a new project while we still have
infrastructure that needs to be taken care of. Alderman Koch stated he values water, sewer,
roads, and the parks, but those aren’t being properly maintained at this time. He isn’t necessarily
against this project but wants to wait until the November election. Alderman McClatchey said
that on all of our surveys the indoor pool is the number one thing people want. He wants to put
this on the ballot to see if this is what people really want. Council debated the costs of
decommissioning the current outdoor pool and what would become of that facility if this moved
forward.
A motion as made by Alderwoman Miller and seconded by Alderman McClatchey to execute
an Authorizing Ordinance to place a binding referendum question of public policy on the ballot
for the March 19, 2024 General Election and that the ordinance be submitted to the McHenry
County Clerk no later than January 2, 2024. Roll Call Vote: 3-ayes: Santi, McClatchey, Miller. 4-
nays: Glab, Bassi, Strach, Koch. 0-abstain, 0-absent. Motion failed.
Discussion Item Agenda
Amendments to McHenry City Code Regarding Video Gaming
Mayor Jett explained that he brought this issue to Attorney McArdle for guidance on defining
Video Gaming Cafes. If Council doesn’t want more cafés, and if those can be defined, then we
can stop those applications and simplify the process. Alderwoman Miller asked Deputy Clerk
Johnson if this ordinance would help him sort through the applications. He stated that an
ordinance like this would enable him to stop those businesses from coming forward that Council
does not want. There are two businesses that are proposing establishments, and if this ordinance
is passed, he can stop the process from moving forward and save the businesses, Staff, and
Council time.
He did state that one concern of his is the way the ordinance currently reads. The proposed
ordinance states that if an existing gaming café is closed for more than 30 days, then they would
lose their license and go out of business. Although he is not part of the Finance Department, he
is concerned with the City losing any gaming revenue. The City has been fortunate to keep the
tax levy flat, but gaming is on pace to bring in nearly $1 million this year. The tax levy that was
just passed is only $3 million. Gaming cafes that transfer owners are shut down for longer than
30 days, and one current café brings the City nearly $80,000 a year. Council has allowed the
change of ownership in the past, and current members agreed that they do not have a problem
with existing cafes remaining in business. All Council members agreed that the language to the
proposed ordinance should be changed.

Alderman Strach pointed out that in the definition of a Video Gaming Café, we use the term
“commercial kitchen”. There is no definition of a commercial kitchen, however. Mr. Johnson
pointed out that many parts of the ordinance are subjective, which can be both good and bad.
The bad part is that we don’t have definitions for commercial kitchens, so there aren’t necessarily
any strict guidelines to go by. But the ordinance does read that those factors “may be
considered” when defining a café. It would be up to the Local Liquor Control Commissioner,
which is the Mayor, to make that determination. One of the good things about having subjective
definitions is that there are some establishments that most would agree aren’t cafes but may be
defined as a café by certain parts of the ordinance. One good example is Ye Olde Corner Tap. Mr.
Johnson stated that most would agree that it is not a café, but rather a well-established bar that
has been in existence for a long time. They have made great strides in improving their facility and
continue to be a viable business on Main Street. But going by many definitions of the ordinance,
they would fit in as a gaming café. The subjective part allows us to recognize them as a bar.
Mayor Jett stated that he and the Deputy Clerk would have a good handle on what those cafes
would be. Mr. Johnson also stated that we have many Staff members who work together and as
a group we can make a good determination on those cafes moving forward. A motion was made
by Alderman McClatchey and seconded by Alderwoman Bassi to pass an Ordinance Amending
Title 4, Chapter 2, Section 4-6-1 (Definitions) and Title 4, Chapter 6, Section 4 -6-4 (Limitations
of Establishments and Terminals) of the McHenry City Code, and by omitting Section 2 of the
ordinance as presented. Roll Call: Vote: 7-ayes: Alderman Santi, Alderman Glab, Alderman
McClatchey, Alderwoman Bassi, Alderman Strach, Alderman Koch, Alderwoman Miller . 0-nays,
0-absent, 0-abstained. Motion carried.
Staff Reports
Director Polerecky thanked everybody that came to the evening sessions of public input for the
Comprehensive Plan. The next step is to have a joint meeting with Council and the Planning &
Zoning Commission to set goals and objectives. Staff has recommended a date of February 21st
for that meeting. He will send an email to Council to get a sense of how many people could attend
on that date.
Mayor’s Report
Mayor Jett had nothing to report.
City Council Comment
Alderman Glab stated that he has received feedback from constituents that they have put in
requests that the City won’t handle because they may be an unreasonable request. Alderman
Glab suggests that Staff contact that Alderperson in that Ward to let them know that the request
was denied so they have a heads up about the s ituation before they are contacted by the
constituent. Public Works Director Steve Wirch stated that all residents receive a response to all
requests.

Alderman Koch reported that he has a couple of people complaining that West Beach Park looks
“icky”. He wants to know if it can be cleaned up more. They also want a parking lot and piers for
fishing. Alderman Koch told the residents we had porta potties and picnic tables, but they want
to see more improvements. Alderman Strach stated that he loves the fact that somebody wants
piers, but he wants somebody to raise the taxes so that we can pay for them. Alderwoman Miller
thanked Staff for inviting Council to the Employee Christmas Party. She also commended the
Parks Department for their work on the Christmas decorations. Alderman Glab extended a
“Merry Christmas” to all present at the meeting.
Adjournment
A motion was made by Alderwoman Bassi and seconded by Alderman Strach to adjourn the
meeting at 9:06 p.m. Roll Call: Vote: 7-ayes: Alderman Santi, Alderman Glab, Alderman
McClatchey, Alderwoman Bassi, Alderman Strach, Alderman Koch, Alderwoman Miller . 0-nays,
0-absent, 0-abstained. Motion carried.

Bludot Technologies
The Economic Development Department, together with the help of Alderman Strach, has
recently signed a contract with Bludot Technologies, www.bludot.io, to implement a CRM
(Customer Relationship Management) system and business directory. This system will provide a
comprehensive directory of all the businesses in the City, which is currently scattered across
multiple spreadsheets, all under one umbrella. This will allow the staff to easily sort and filter
businesses based on type and geography for communication purposes, promotional events, and
other activities. Moreover, the system will track all the conversations via email that the staff has
with prospective retailers and other employers using the City's email system so that staff will
have a complete transcript of all the dealings with existing and potential businesses. The
information on City businesses has been uploaded through platforms like Google and Yelp, as
well as through existing spreadsheets maintained by the Economic Development Department.
Additionally, the Bludot Program includes a Customer Awards component, which is an exciting
shop-local program. The program allows customers to receive rewards for shopping at businesses
that are within our city limits. The City is putting some funds in an account for these rewards. The
rewards must be used in other City of McHenry businesses only. This program is a one-year
contract with Bludot. The program is a trial-and-error program and will start in a few weeks.
To receive rewards, customers can use an app and a credit card or upload a receipt. The
businesses don't have to do anything to be part of the rewards program, only the people utilizing
it. Staff will be responsible for marketing it, hopefully in concert with the businesses.
Bludot, not the City, tracks the money used for rewards. This way, the City does not have to issue
rewards back to customers. Staff designates businesses where the rewards can be used and can
change them from time to time. This program is the ultimate shop local program, as the rewards
can be used in City of McHenry stores only.
Once the program is fully operational and the database is created, our staff would be happy to
provide individual demonstrations to all Council members. We will also keep the Council
informed of the awards program's progress through regular updates. If you have any questions
or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact Director Martin.
Next Site-Alpha Map
The Economic Development Department has also signed a two-year contract with Next Site
(Alpha Map), www.alphamap.com, a Geographic Information System (GIS) that provides
valuable demographic, socioeconomic, traffic, and pedestrian data for specific sites and
locations. This system is designed to help us suggest tenants for particular locations based on site
characteristics when compared to other similar sites across the country. This will help us acquire
useful data to provide customers, retailers, developers, brokers, and others. The program
includes a property records component as well as a trade area analysis tool that can be utilized
for specific locations within and around the City of McHenry.
