RE: OAKWOOD DRIVE BRIDGE RECONSTRUCTION
PLAT OF DEDICATION
ATT: PLAT OF DEDICATION
AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY:
Staff requests City Council to approve the Plat of Dedication and authorize the Mayor to sign it.
The plat of dedication will establish an additional 10’ strip of land as right-of way to allow for the
construction of the Oakwood Drive Bridge project.
BACKGROUND:
On January 6, 2020, the City of McHenry entered into agreements with Baxter & Woodman and
the Illinois Department of Transportation to design and ultimately reconstruct the bridge at
Oakwood Drive over Boone Creek. The existing bridge structure is a 5-cell metal arch culvert,
built in 1971 and is beyond its useful service life. The new bridge will be a triple-cell concrete box
culvert built to current IDOT standards. In order to construct the bridge, the City needs to
dedicate an additional 10’ of right-of-way (ROW) along the east side of the road for public road
purposes, a total of 0.018 acres. The parcel of land on which the new right-of-way is to be
dedicated is already owned by the City of McHenry.
ANALYSIS:
Staff has reviewed the situation and recommends approving the Plat of Dedication and
authorizing the Mayor to sign the document.
3
The City of McHenry is dedicated to providing the citizens, businesses and visitors of McHenry with the highest
quality of programs and services in a customer-oriented, efficient and fiscally responsible manner.
RECOMMENDATION:
Therefore, if Council concurs, it is recommended that the City of McHenry Pass an Ordinance
Accepting the Plat of Dedication for 0.018 Acres Establishing Additional ROW to Accommodate
the Oakwood Drive Bridge Project.

Public Comment: Chris Moore stated that the school board is taking $200 more next year,
and then the levy will take more as well. There are different ways to gain money instead of
taxing. This money should only be earmarked for this.
A. Motion to pass the 2024 Property Tax Levy Ordinance in an amount not to exceed
$3,112,374 (Director Lynch)
Alderman McClatchey stated that this sends the wrong signal and is not in support of this.
Alderwoman Bassi echoes the resident’s public comments above she will not support this.
Alderman Koch wanted to know where it is earmarked per Director Lynch, she will be
earmarking it once it is time for review.
Alderman Glab brought up a good point that this should be earmarked for something specific
and where it is going to be spent in the future, not exactly sure how he wants to proceed with
it, but still undecided on it.
Alderwoman Miller this is a small increase, not to play catch up but not to leave money on the
table regarding the value, helps continue to provide the services at the rate where we are
currently within the city, she is in support of this.

A. Treehouse Liquor License
A motion to approve a Class A-1 liquor license to Treehouse Ventures McHenry LLC,
located at 2328 N Richmond Road, and to pass an Ordinance Amending Sections 4-2-
6 and 4-2-14 Regarding Alcoholic Liquor License Classifications and Hours of the
McHenry City Code (Deputy Clerk Johnson)
Mike Ferguson, round Lake IL – petitioner, stood at the podium to answer questions from The
Council.
Alderman Koch wanted to know if there are going to be restrictions on the drink amounts, but
there is no cap but the max that someone has stayed there is 60 -120 minutes, nobody has
ever been overserved. This is not an environment such as a bar, as confirmed by the petitioner.
Alderwoman Miller welcomed the petitioners, was excited to see the menu , and looks to be a
fun hang out.
Alderwoman Bassi, spoke to a friend who lives in Lake Zurich and stated that he only stays 1 -
2 hours as they stated. She is concerned that the liquor license starts at 9 would they be willing
to start at noon? The petitioner stated that birthday parties start at 10, and many of those tend
to have a Mimosa, which would miss out on the weekends. She also wanted to know if they
would be willing to change it to noon, Monday through Friday. Per the petitioner it would be
more regulations regarding staff etc., the current license has not caused any issues.
Alderman McClatchey wanted to know if there was going to be gaming, the answer was no for
children or adults. Meaning it is an environment for children to run around and play.
Alderman Glab stated if everyone was responsible, would like to see it at noon on any day.
Alderman Davis stated that he has been to the Lake Zurich one, no issue with the alcohol the
times he has been there has never seen anything get out of control, and he is good with it.
Alderman Santi wanted to know if this is a standard license, yes it is one year.
No Public Comment.

B. Redwood Development Agreement
A motion to pass the following (Director Polerecky):
1) Ordinance authorizing the execution of an Annexation Agreement for a 122.477 -acre
property located at the southeast corner of Chapel Hill Road and IL State Route 120,
in McHenry County, Illinois. (Mayor & City Council Vote, (6/8) Super-Majority)
The petitioners were present and took some time to explain Redwood through a deck. The
core values were explained as they are represented in 9 states. The footprint of the
development was explained, its core being a management company. Most of the resident s
wanting to move are empty nesters and, for the most part, expressed the importance of the
Redwood branding to The Council. Maintenance standards were explained as well. Historical
rent growth was also a topic along with the mean rent pricing.
Alderman McClatchey is for this one of his concerns is the siding, wanted to know how well it
lasts, per the developer, Paul stated it is a vinyl product, where standards are good. Is there a
homeowner’s association, it was confirmed no.
Alderman Santi wanted to know if the 177 units would be phases, it was confirmed that it
would be 2 phases starting on Chapel Hill and growing from there. The average person would
not notice the phases. Do each have their addresses, correct they do for this project as
confirmed.
Alderman Glab was asking if they were aware of the codes for the vinyl siding, per Director
Polerecky whatever is approved is what will be required of it. Would need to see that in place
makes a huge difference with the development Alderman Glab added. Con cerned about
there not being any architect. Aesthetic looks should be important for the development.
Alderwoman Miller thanked the developers stating she followed the Volo project and was
pleased with it. There was a demand as they were being built, and people were moving in,
she did tour them and was very pleased with it.
Alderman Bassi, at no time will this be an owned property , that was confirmed by the
developers. She also thanked Director Polerecky for his help with the estimate for the rent
this afternoon, during their conversation. She communicated that a rental community is not
something that she is in favor of, ownership of them would be something she would like to
support.
Alderman Santi asked about Crystal Lake and wanted to know the number of leases there,
did not know the exact numbers, it was quite robust. The same in Volo and everything in
Chicago per the developer.
No public comment.
Mayor Jett asked if anyone had specific questions and went through The Council to make
sure before the vote took place. If someone is not voting yes wanted to hear the reason
behind that as well.

A motion to initiate condemnation proceedings to obtain 0.118 acres of right-of-way and
.069 acres of temporary easement for the Oakwood Drive Bridge project (Acting Public
Works Director Adams)
Alderman Glab is in support of this but is a piecemeal situation which he is not in favor of.
Boone Creek has been neglected for years and needs to be discussed and a study to see how
this could fit into the big picture. Need to be careful when doing these projects due to the overall
impact.

on board.

Alderman McClatchey asked if there could be legal ramifications against The City, it was
confirmed that probably would not happen.
Alderman Glab wanted to know if there would be limits etc, Acting Director Adams
confirmed some of those questions asked regarding the annexation. If they come into
The City wanted to make sure that they pay for any impact they have on it, by submitting
samples per Acting Director Adams, this would be measured. This can be required on
an annual basis.
Alderman Koch wanted to know if this is the same setup as McHenry Shores, per Acting
Director Adams that is his understanding as of now.
Director Polerecky stated that it is the same as McHenry Shores, as he has met with
them in the past.
Public Comment: Bob, a resident- would like us to not approve the annexation. Stated
that this could be a risk for the subdivision's resources, and they could be stuck if The
Council wanted to take over the subdivision could shut off the water. Wanted to know
why to take that risk. Cannot think of any advantages that would result from this.
Changing the ordinance would be a better choice.
Alderwoman Miller wanted to know if Aqua has given him any notice on what the
upgrade in price could be with this. Stated that Aqua is not very good at communicating
with him, per Bob the resident stated at the podium.

expensive this is.

access to those within walking distance per the petitioner.

AGENDA ITEM
DATE: January 21, 2025
TO: City Council
FROM: Deputy City Clerk Monte Johnson
RE: That Bar on 31 Liquor License
AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY:
Andy Panagakis has plans to open a bar at 404 Route 31. He has applied for a Class A liquor
license and video gaming license. He has passed all background checks. He met with Mayor
Jett, Chief Birk, City Administrator Ostrovsky, and Deputy Clerk Johnson to discuss his business
plan.
This is information received from That Bar on 31:
That Bar on 31 is going to be a neighborhood restaurant & bar with an emphasis on cozy a
atmosphere and friendly service. Here, neighborhood friends, families and local coworkers will
be able to gather and relax with some good food and drinks. I have put together a great menu
that is perfect for That Bar on 31 and it's patrons. That Bar on 31 intends to offer video gaming
as adult entertainment but mostly to offset the spike in inflation. With the aggressive rise in
food costs, employee benefits and salaries and overall costs of doing business, I feel this will
supplement my bottom line.
Below is my extensive food and beverage menu.
MENU ITEMS
Pizza (cheese / pepperoni / sausage / beef & giardiniera / meatball & ricotta)
Italian Panini
Italian Sub
Pub Sandwich (ham, swiss, dijon, pretzel bun, butter, sea salt, bake)
Meatball Grinder Sandwich
Pot Roast Grinder Sandwich

AGENDA SUPPLEMENT
TO: Mayor and City Council
FOR: January 21, 2025 City Council Meeting
FROM: Cody Sheriff, City Planner
RE: Ordinance granting a Use Variation and Zoning Variations for the property
located at 1411 N Richmond Road
ATT:
1. Unapproved Planning and Zoning Commission Minutes dated December 18, 2024
2. Planning & Zoning Commission Staff Report & Petitioner’s Application Packet
3. Ordinance granting a Use Variation and Zoning Variations for the Property Located at
1411 N Richmond Road.
AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY:
The petitioner, Noah Lloyd-Mietus, is seeking approval of a Use Variance and Zoning Variations
to accommodate the existing 2-unit multifamily dwelling at 1411 N Richmond Road.
BACKGROUND:
As the City Council may recall from properties such as 1508 N Green Street, 1410 N Riverside
Drive, etc., the City has been working with property owners of nonconforming residential uses
that have existed between 10-20 years or more to bring them into compliance with the Zoning
Ordinance.
The subject property is located in Lakeview Addition to McHenry Subdivision, which was platted
in 1922. Although there is no exact evidence available to determine when the 2nd unit was
created, the City’s water billing records indicate the site has operated as a 2-unit dwelling since
at least 2012 (2012 is the furthest back water billing records can go). The submitted records
from a prior owner’s appraisal also show the sale of the property as a 2-unit dwelling in 2000
(24 years ago).

www.cityofmchenry.org
Similar to past arrangements for nonconforming residential structures in the Downtown, staff
performed a walkthrough inspection and identified several issues the Property Owner will need
to address to bring the property into compliance with Building Code. Additionally, the existing
detached garage was built almost to the property line, and therefore the site has limited
parking. Included in the Ordinance is a condition that requires the Property Owner to add at
least two (2) additional parking spaces onsite to accommodate both units and to be in
compliance with the Zoning Ordinance.
PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION DISCUSSION & RECOMMENDATION:
A Planning & Zoning Commission public hearing was held on December 18, 2024. There were
no objectors present at the hearing. The Planning & Zoning Commission unanimously voted to
recommend approval of the request.
If the City Council concurs, it is recommended the attached ordinance granting a Use Variation
and Zoning Variations for the property located at 1411 N Richmond Road be approved. (City
Council vote-simple majority).

File No. Z-2024-18
Petitioner: Noah Lloyd-Mietus
Request for a Use Variance to accommodate the existing 2- unit residential building, and any
Zoning Variations necessary to accommodate all existing principal and accessory structures
on the property located at 1411 N Richmond Road
Chairwoman Rockweiler opened the file at 5:42 p.m. Petitioner Noah Lloyd-Mietus was sworn
in. Planner Cody Sheriff stated that the public notice requirements have been met. He
explained that he needs a variance so he can rent one of the units of the property. Planner
Sheriff explained that this is currently a non-conforming 2-flat. Staff has been working with the
property owner to make sure it becomes compliant. Staff recommends the installation of two
parking spaces. The request is in compliance with the future land use map. The property has
been used as a 2-flat with a second unit for at least 24 years, so there should be no adverse
impacts with the other property owners. Other requests by Staff should be taken care of within
one year of approval by Council.
Chairwoman Rockweiler opened the public hearing portion of the meeting at 5:45 p.m. With
nobody present to testify, she closed the hearing at 5:45 p.m.
All members of the Planning & Zoning Commission agreed that there are no issues with the
request, and that the Staff’s recommendation is appropriate.
A motion was made by Commissioner Gleason and seconded by Commissioner Riley
to recommend approval of the Petitioner’s request for a Use Variation to allow a 2-Unit
Residential Dwelling on the Subject Property Subject to the following conditions: 1. The
Property Owner shall add two additional paved asphalt or concrete parking spaces on the
Subject Property to be reviewed and approved at the discretion of the Zoning Administrator; 2.
The Property Owner shall address any outstanding building code related issues as noted in the
walkthrough inspection comments dated 9/23/2024; and 3. All repair work and additional
parking shall be completed within one year of approval by City Council. AND by making said
motion, you agree that the approval criteria for Use Variances have been met as outlined in the staff
report.

Staff Report for the City of McHenry Planning & Zoning Commission
Staff Comments
The following comments and conclusions are based upon staff analysis and review prior to this hearing and are
to be considered viable unless evidence is established to the contrary. Staff may have additional comments
based upon the testimony presented during the public hearing.
BACKGROUND & REQUEST SUMMARY
The Property Owner, Noah Lloyd-Mietus, is requesting the following zoning approvals for the property located
at 1411 N Richmond Road to accommodate the existing 2-flat and detached garage:
• Use Variance to accommodate the existing 2-unit residential dwelling.
• Zoning Variation to allow a minimum lot area of 7,250 square feet in lieu of the required 10,000 square
feet.
• Zoning Variation to allow a minimum lot width of 50 feet in lieu of the required 100 feet.
• Zoning Variation to allow a rear yard setback of 1.35 feet in lieu of the required 6.25 feet to
accommodate the existing detached garage.
• Zoning Variation to allow a Corner Side Yard (Grand Avenue) setback of approximately 2 feet in lieu of
the required 15 feet to accommodate the existing detached garage.
• Any other Zoning Variations necessary to accommodate the existing principal and accessory structures.
As the Commission may recall from properties such as 1508 N Green Street, 1410 N Riverside Drive, etc., the
City has been working with property owners of nonconforming residential uses that have existed between 10-
20 years or more to bring them into compliance with the Zoning Ordinance. The Property Owner contacted
City Staff to inquire about the legal status of the existing 2-flat prior to the purchase of the property in
November. Staff informed the petitioner regarding the nonconforming status of the 2-flat and existing
detached garage and explained the process to bring the property into compliance.
Similar to past arrangements for nonconforming residential structures in the Downtown, staff performed a
walkthrough inspection and identified several issues the Property Owner will need to address to bring the
property in compliance with Building Code. Additionally, the existing detached garage was built almost to the
72
property line and therefore the site has limited parking. Staff is recommending the Property Owner add at
least two (2) additional parking spaces onsite to accommodate both units and to be in compliance with the
Zoning Ordinance.
The subject property is located in Lakeview Addition to McHenry Subdivision which was platted in 1922.
Although there is no exact evidence available to determine when the 2nd unit was created, the City’s water
billing records indicate the site has operated as a 2-unit dwelling since at least 2012 (2012 is as far back as the
City’s water billing records can go). The submitted records from a prior owner’s appraisal also shows the sale
of the property as a 2-unit dwelling in 2000 (24 years ago).
CITY OF MCHENRY ORDINANCES
• The petitioner must meet the Approval Criteria for Use Variances, listed in §11-19-6 of the City of
McHenry Zoning Ordinance
• The petitioner must meet the Approval Criteria for Variances, listed in §11-19-5 of the City of McHenry
Zoning Ordinance
STAFF ANALYSIS
CURRENT LAND USE & ZONING
The Subject Property is currently zoned RS-4 High Density Single Family Residential District. The surrounding
properties primarily consists of RS-4 zoning and single-family housing with Montini Catholic School to the
south. The primary concern is how the property will fit in within the character area. Several properties near
the Subject Property have received approval for similar requests such as 1407 N Court Street, 1507/1508 N
Green Street and 3723 Grand Avenue. Given the longevity of the use of the property as a 2-unit dwelling (20+
years) staff does not believe approval of the request would be out of character with the area.
FUTURE LAND USE MAP RECOMMENDATION
The Vision 2050 Downtown Future Land Use Map recommends Downtown Neighborhood which
“…encompasses the residential neighborhoods surrounding the downtown commercial and mixed-use areas
around Main Street, Green Street, and Riverside Drive. The neighborhood is laid out with traditional blocks,
smaller houses, historic architectural styles, and porches. Infill housing and home-based businesses mixed in
with small and unique boutique businesses is appropriate here. Along with convenience store/grocery
shopping” (p. 58). Therefore, the request is consistent with the Future Land Use Map Recommendation for
infill housing.
VISION 2050 DOWNTOWN PLAN - BIG IDEAS & GOALS
Overall, staff believes the proposed development is somewhat consistent with the City’s Vision 2050
Downtown Plan. Staff comments italicized.
• ACTION 1.5 – “Amend the zoning ordinance to allow higher density housing in the Downtown to
encourage walking and biking, and to reduce dependence on automobiles.” (p. 81)
Staff believes approval of the request would be consistent with the City’s goal of providing higher
density housing in the Downtown to promote walking and biking while reducing automobile
dependence.
73
SITE PLAN ANALYSIS
• Parking. The City’s Offstreet Parking and Loading Ordinance requires 2 parking spaces per dwelling unit
for single-family attached/detached. Staff is including as a condition of approval that the petitioner
shall add a minimum of two additional paved asphalt or concrete parking spaces onsite to be reviewed
and approved at the discretion of the Zoning Administrator.
• Zoning District Bulk and Setback Variance Requests. The existing principal unit and accessory
structure have existing on site since at least 1927 according to the McHenry Township Assessors Office.
Given the longevity of the establishment of the existing structures, and use of the property as a 2-unit
dwelling, staff does not anticipate any adverse impacts on the adjoining property owners.
STAFF SUMMARY ANALYSIS.
• Staff believes the proposed use of the property as a 2-unit dwelling has operated on site for over 24
years according to the documents submitted by the Property Owner.
• Staff believes the request is consistent with the Future Land Use Map for Downtown Neighborhood
which recommends infill housing.
• Staff believes the request is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan Recommendation for increasing
density within the downtown area.
• The City has approved similar requests within the vicinity of the subject property (1407 Court St.,
1507/1508 N Green St., and 3723 Grand Avenue).
• Staff is recommending several conditions of approval: 1) the Property Owner shall add two additional
paved asphalt or concrete parking spaces on the Subject Property to be reviewed and approved at the
discretion of the Zoning Administrator; and 2) the Property Owner shall address any outstanding
building code related issues as noted in the walkthrough inspection comments dated 9/23/2024 and 3)
All repair work and additional parking shall be completed within one year of approval by City Council.
If the Planning & Zoning Commission agrees with the petitioner’s request, then the following two (2)
motions are recommended:
1st MOTION: I motion/move to recommend approval of the Petitioner’s request for a Use Variation to allow a
2-Unit Residential Dwelling on the Subject Property Subject to the following conditions:
1. The Property Owner shall add two additional paved asphalt or concrete parking spaces on the Subject
Property to be reviewed and approved at the discretion of the Zoning Administrator;
2. The Property Owner shall address any outstanding building code related issues as noted in the
walkthrough inspection comments dated 9/23/2024; and
3. All repair work and additional parking shall be completed within one year of approval by City Council.
AND by making said motion, you agree that the approval criteria for Use Variances have been met as outlined
in the staff report.
(2nd motion begins on next page)
74
2nd MOTION: I motion/move to recommend approval of the Petitioner’s request for the following Zoning
Variations:
1. Zoning Variation to allow a minimum lot area of 7,250 square feet in lieu of the required 10,000 square
feet.
2. Zoning Variation to allow a minimum lot width of 50 feet in lieu of the required 100 feet.
3. Zoning Variation to allow a rear yard setback of 1.35 feet in lieu of the required 6.25 feet to accommodate
the existing detached garage.
4. Zoning Variation to allow a Corner Side Yard (Grand Avenue) setback of approximately 2 feet in lieu of the
required 15 feet to accommodate the existing detached garage.
5. Any other Zoning Variations necessary to accommodate the existing principal and accessory structures.
AND by making said motion, you agree that the approval criteria for Variances have been met as Outlined in
the Staff Report.
APPROVAL CRITERIA FOR USE VARIANCES (§11-19-6) Comments of staff italicized below.
A. Practical Difficulties or Particular Hardship: For reasons fully set forth in the written findings, the strict
application of the provisions of this title 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
mere inconvenience.
Staff believes the strict application of the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance would result in an
unnecessary and undue hardship given the longevity of the use (over 20 years).
B. Reasonable Return: The property cannot yield a reasonable return if permitted to be used only under
the conditions allowed by the regulations in this title for the pertinent zoning district.
N/A
C. Unique Circumstance: 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 generally to
other properties in the same zoning district.
Staff does believe the request is under special circumstances uniquely for this property because the
property has operated for long period of time (over 20 years) as a 2-unit dwelling and has existed in
harmony with the surrounding property owners.
D. 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.
Staff does not believe approval of the request will generate any adverse impacts on the surrounding
area. Other properties within the area (1508 N Green, 1410 N Riverside Drive, 3723 Grand Avenue)
have operated under similar circumstances.
E. Consistent With Title And Comprehensive Plan: The granting of a use variance will be in harmony with
the general purpose and intent of this title and of the Comprehensive Plan of the City.
Staff believes the overall request is consistent with the Title and Comprehensive Plan of supporting
multifamily development/infill development near the Downtown.
VARIANCE APPROVAL CRITERIA (§11-19-5). Comments of staff italicized below.
A. Special Circumstances Not Found Elsewhere.
Staff believes this is an unusual circumstance that impacts only a few properties within the RS-4 Zoning
District.
B. Circumstances Relate to the Property Only.
75
Staff believes this is a circumstance that would relate to this property and if the property sold to the
next property owner. The current property owner purchased the property as a 2-unit dwelling and
therefore inherited a nonconforming property.
C. Not Resulting From Applicant Action.
The applicant did not create the existing 2-unit dwelling which may have existing since 2000.
D. Unnecessary Hardship.
Staff believes if the city enforces the ordinance that it would cause undue hardship since the property
has operated in harmony with the surrounding residences for at least 20 years.
E. Preserves Rights Conferred By District:
Staff believes this does not confer a special privilege for the subject property.
F. Necessary For Use Of Property:
Staff believes that without approval, the petitioner would be denied reasonable use and enjoyment of
the property.
G. Not Alter Local Character:
Staff believes approval of the applicant’s request would not substantially alter essential character of the
locality nor have any other adverse impacts given the longevity of the use of the property as a 2-unit
dwelling for at least 20 years.
H. Consistent With Title And Plan:
Staff believes the proposal is appropriate given its proximity to the downtown which is consistent with
the Comprehensive Plan recommendation for increasing overall density in the downtown.
I. Minimum Variance Recommended:
Staff believes the proposed variance requests are the minimum required.
Attachments: 1) Petitioner’s Application and attachments. 2) Receipt of publication of legal notice.

REGULAR AGENDA SUPPLEMENT
DATE: January 21, 2025
TO: Mayor Jett and City Council
FROM: Russ Adams, Acting Director of Public Works
Greg Gruen, P.E., Staff Engineer
RE: VENICE AVE RECONSTRUCTION
HR GREEN CHANGE ORDER #2
ATT: HR GREEN CHANGE ORDER TO TASK ORDER #2
AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY:
Staff requests City Council to consider approving Change Order to Task Order #2 in the amount
of $40,564 for HR Green to design a new 10-inch sanitary sewer along Venice Ave.
BACKGROUND:
On May 16, 2022, the City Council approved a contract with HR Green to design the Venice
Avenue Reconstruction Project. The original scope of the improvements included reconstructing
the road with concrete curb and gutter, a sidewalk, asphalt, improved drainage and base
stabilization. The goal of the project is to rehabilitate Venice Ave with pedestrian connectivity
from Miller Point to the Green Street area. The improvements will also include the section of
Court Street from Venice to Route 120.
During the course of the design, staff had HR Green analyze the existing sanitary sewer system
capacity for future downtown development. In addition, City utility staff performed a
comprehensive condition assessment of the sewer. The results of the investigation revealed that
the existing 8-inch sewer is insufficient in size and slope to service a large-scale development on
the west side of Green Street. Furthermore, the existing sewer is an old 8-inch clay tile that is
70+ years old with a major sag, insufficient depth to service the existing commercial property,
and has several point repairs from previous failures. This sewer line is on the Utility Division’s list
of sewers that need monthly cleaning and jetting to prevent sewer backups. The design and
installation of a new 10-inch PVC sewer will eliminate these issues.
96
The City of McHenry is dedicated to providing the citizens, businesses and visitors of McHenry with the highest
quality of programs and services in a customer-oriented, efficient and fiscally responsible manner.
Normally, the cost of a sewer replacement to fix a 70+ year old pipe would be funded by
sewer/water fees. However, since the work to upgrade the pipe size and capacity would be
required to accommodate future development along Green Street, staff is recommending that
the cost of the sewer upgrade be funded with Tax Increment Financing (TIF) dollars. The current
Engineer’s Estimate of Cost for this project is $650,000 for the roadway improvements, and
$600,000 for the sanitary improvements.
Final determination of funding will be made with the approval of the FY25/26 budget; the
action for this agenda item is strictly to approve the change order to allow for the design of the
sewer.
The project design was budgeted for the current FY24/25 fiscal year with construction proposed
for the FY25/26 fiscal year. After approval of this change order, HR Green can begin the design
and obtain the necessary IEPA permits for the sanitary sewer replacement. Staff is anticipating a
March 2025 bid date and award of the project in April 2025. A definitive schedule for the project
will be developed prior to bidding, once the plans have been completed and all necessary permits
have been obtained.
ANALYSIS:
Staff has analyzed HR Green’s scope of work and fee and recommends approving the Change
Order to the design contract.
RECOMMENDATION:
Therefore, if Council concurs, it is recommended to approve the HR Green Change Order to
Task Order #2 for $40,564, to be billed on a Time & Material not to exceed basis.

The following additional design guidelines will apply to this project:
A. Standard Specifications for Water and Sewer Main Construction in Illinois.
The sanitary sewer excavation will take place below the water levels of the adjacent Boone
Creek and nearby Fox River. It is assumed ground water will infiltrate the trench requiring
special conditions during construction such as dewatering and shoring of the trench walls.
Directional drill methods of pipe installation will be reviewed during the design process to
limit impacts to adjacent buildings, streetscaping along Green Street, and the newer Green
Street pavement.
It is assumed applicable IDOT Highway Standards will be used for traffic control and
protection during construction and detour plans will not be required.
The improvements will not occur within State ROW.
The project area resides outside of the floodplain and floodway.
Phase II engineering will take place expeditiously to target construction in 2025.
As a certified community, CLIENT will issue their own stormwater permit for the
improvements.
Detailed landscaping plans are not included. No ornamental planting beds and/or irrigation
systems will be provided.
2.0 Scope of Services
Scope of services performed by the COMPANY shall be completed in accordance with
generally accepted standards of practice and shall include the services to complete the

2.1 Supplemental Land Surveying Services
A. Easement Exhibit and Legal Description
COMPANY will prepare an easement exhibit and legal description for up to three (3)
parcels anticipated to require easements for the proposed improvements. COMPANY
will prepare an exhibit and legal description for each easement according to the legal
description shown in the recorded deed for each parcel and proposed easement limits
defined in the engineering plans. COMPANY will provide a PDF version of the exhibit
and legal description to be incorporated into the easement agreement prepared and
recorded by CLIENT.

B. Supplemental Right of Way and Topographic Survey
COMPANY will perform a ROW and topographic survey of the area lying within the
limits outlined in red in Figure A. The ROW survey will recover existing ROW line
evidence and will be calculated based on recorded dedication plats and/or recorded
subdivision plats to include on the base map. The survey will include visible existing
features and improvements. Existing utilities will be surveyed from visible flags or
markings. Storm, sanitary sewer and watermain structures (not previously surveyed)
will be surveyed, including rim elevation, invert elevation, pipe size, direction and
elevation as observed at unlocked manholes. Trees lying within the limits described
above and having a diameter of six (6) inches or greater will be located, but the species
will not be identified. The previous survey base drawing will be updated with existing
features collected within the limits described above, and TIN including approximate
one-foot contours, according to IDOT standards for use in COMPANY’S internal
design.
2.2 Sanitary Sewer Upsizing
This work will include design engineering tasks required for adding the sanitary sewer
elements into the project and updating the existing plans and all other related work
necessary to complete the design and bidding documents for the Venice Avenue
Reconstruction and Pedestrian Improvements Project.
COMPANY will develop a set of plans for the proposed improvements as defined above.
The plans will be submitted to CLIENT for review and concurrence at the 90% and 100%
milestones.
A. Alignment
The project alignment will be extended approximately 275 feet west to the centerline of
Green Street at which the project will connect to the existing sanitary manhole. The
alignment adjustment will require updating the following plan sheets:
• Alignment, Ties & Benchmarks
• Removal Plans
• Roadway/Drainage Plan and Profiles
• Erosion Control Plans
B. Removal plans
The sanitary sewer extension will require development of two (2) additional removal plan
sheets to show existing conditions and removal items along the Venice Avenue corridor
between Green Street and Court Street, and the sewer extension heading south from
Venice Avenue to approximately the northeast corner of the current D.C. Cobbs and
Vixen building.
The existing removal plans, consisting of one (1) sheet, will be updated to show the
sanitary sewer work.
Removal plans will be at 1”=20’ scale.

C. Plan and profile sheets
Existing and proposed ground profiles will need to be extended along the Venice Avenue
corridor approximately 275 feet. Additionally, new existing and proposed ground profiles
will be developed above the proposed sanitary sewer extension from Venice Avenue,
south to approximately the northeast corner of the current D.C. Cobbs and Vixen building.
Profiles will be developed to depict the existing and proposed sanitary sewers. Profiles
will include manhole rim and invert elevations, pipe sizes, and pipe slopes. The sanitary
sewer improvements will also require development of existing water main profiles to
demonstrate compatibility with IEPA separation standards during IEPA permit review.
The sanitary sewer extension will require development of two (2) additional plan and
profile sheets.
The existing plan and profile sheets along Venice Avenue, consisting of two (2) sheets,
will be updated to show the sanitary sewer work.
D. Cross sections
Existing cross sections will be updated to depict the sanitary sewer improvements and
existing water main to remain. The cross sections will demonstrate compatibility with
IEPA separation standards during IEPA permit review.
New cross sections west of Court Street will not be developed as part of this project. In
lieu of additional cross sections an alley site plan will be developed.
E. Alley site plan
COMPANY will develop an alley site plan at 1”=20’ scale showing the alley between
Green Street and Venice Avenue, and the alley area behind the buildings fronting Green
Street between Venice Avenue and north of Boone Creek. The site plan will include base
mapping, existing public and franchise utility locations, proposed sidewalk and/or
crosswalk geometry, pavement elevations and slopes, and parking stall configuration
within the project limits. Plans will also include existing and/or proposed right-of-way and
easements.
F. Temporary bypass flow schematic
COMPANY will partner with CLIENT to develop a temporary bypass flow schematic to
appropriately stage the sanitary sewer upsizing. The schematic will be developed at
1”=50’ scale to show the existing sanitary sewer infrastructure within the project limits
and adjacent to the improvements. The schematic will provide the contractor a
suggested staging plan for acceptable pumping of wastewater around the construction
zone.

G. Temporary dewatering plan
As discussed above, there is an expectation of ground water infiltrating the trenches
during construction and pumping will be required. To meet stormwater ordinance
requirements a temporary dewatering plan is required to provide the contractor direction
on the allowable discharge of ground water from the pumps. CLIENT and COMPANY
have discussed using the existing lift station site to establish groundwater outflow
controls. A temporary dewatering plan will be prepared at 1”=50’ scale.
H. Sanitary sewer schedules and conflict tags
The contract plans and specifications will be prepared on a unit price basis for contractor
bidding and project execution. Schedules, in table format, will be added to the plans to
show location, quantity, elevation, and pipe slopes of the sanitary sewer work. The
following schedules will be built and included in the plans:
• Sanitary sewer removal plans (existing pipe and manhole removals)
• Sanitary sewer manholes (proposed manhole locations, size, rim and invert
elevations)
• Sanitary sewer pipes (proposed pipe sizes, lengths, slopes, and trench backfill)
This item also includes the tabulation and checking of all applicable pay items.
Conflict tags will be used to identify sanitary sewer crossings with the existing water main
and storm sewer. The conflict tags consists of a numbered plan sheet identification tag
that corresponds to a table with pipe crossing elevation data. The elevation data will show
vertical separation meeting IEPA requirements.
I. Construction Details
COMPANY will add two (2) plan sheets of sanitary sewer construction details. The
sanitary sewer details will include CLIENT standard details and IEPA standard details.
J. Traffic control plan for Green Street
It is anticipated the contractor will need to access and shut down the northbound lane of
Green Street and adjacent parking stalls for a few days during construction. Green Street
shall be returned to two-way traffic during non-working hours. The traffic volume on
Green Street necessitates a suitable plan for construction staging and traffic control
measures to be implemented during construction. COMPANY will partner with CLIENT
to describe allowable and non-allowable traffic control and protection during construction.
The plan will include provisions for through traffic and temporary access to adjacent
properties during construction. The traffic control devices, procedures, and layouts shall
be as per the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD).
The traffic control plan will be prepared at 1”=50’ scale.

the sanitary sewer design process so that the CLIENT has the most current cost estimate.
These costs will be determined using pay items and the latest historical unit prices
available for the area.
Two (2) cost estimate submittals to the CLIENT are anticipated at the pre-final and final
stages.
M. Permitting
COMPANY will prepare the IEPA sanitary sewer construction permit (Schedule A/B).
Schedule A/B will be accompanied with the sanitary sewer plans and sent down to the
IEPA office in Springfield for review and approval. The current permit review period by
IEPA is 45-60 days.
At the time of this addendum, the IEPA does not charge permit fees to local
municipalities.
N. Quality assurance and quality control
COMPANY will assign one (2) construction staff member with recent experience on
similar sanitary sewer projects to review the contract plans and specifications.
O. Project Administration
For the duration of this project, this task will involve the management oversight of the

RE: DOWNTOWN PARKING STUDY
ATT: PROPOSAL
PROFESSIONAL SERVICES CONTRACT REDLINE
AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY:
Staff requests City Council to consider awarding a professional services contract to Kimley-Horn
in the amount of $58,500 for the Downtown Parking Study.
BACKGROUND:
Over the last 10 years, there has been a significant amount of both private and public investment
in the City’s three (3) downtown districts. These investments include new restaurants and
businesses, roadway improvements, exterior façade upgrades, and new municipal parking lots.
However, the City Council as well as the downtown business owners have expressed concerns at
various times about the volume and quality of parking in these downtown areas. While
continued development is desirable, maintaining parking availability is important so as not to
impact the success of existing businesses. The outcomes of the study will assist the City Council
in determining whether additional parking investments or adjustments are recommended.
City staff requested proposals from qualified firms to inventory and evaluate the existing parking
situation and recommend improvements or strategies for better efficiency. The City received a
total of three (3) proposals, which were reviewed and ranked based on the quality of their
submission and representative work examples. Cost was not a consideration during the first
round of staff review. Based on qualifications, staff’s ranking is as follows:
Rank #1: Kimley-Horn
Rank #2: Walker Consultants
Rank #3: Desman
After determining the most qualified firm to perform the study, the selection committee then
reviewed the cost of the proposals, along with the Statement of Qualifications. The cost for the
111
The City of McHenry is dedicated to providing the citizens, businesses and visitors of McHenry with the highest
quality of programs and services in a customer-oriented, efficient and fiscally responsible manner.
base services from Kimley-Horn is $55,000, with an add alternate cost of $3,500, for a total of
$58,500. While this ultimately proved to be the highest cost proposal of the three submissions,
staff is confident that Kimley-Horn is the best qualified firm to complete this important work on
behalf of the City. Walker ($49,900) submitted a good proposal; however, it lacked specifics on
data collection methods. Staff was skeptical that Desman ($28,550) would be able to complete
the work in a manner that is satisfactory to the City Council with the limited number of hours
proposed.
The base scope of services will include an inventory of all public/private parking areas, physical
observations of the peak hour parking on four (4) separate occasions in the Winter, Spring and
Summer, a deliverable report, and a formal presentation to City Council. As an add alternate, the
study will also evaluate and make recommendations concerning parking for a theoretical mixed-
use development located west of Green Street. The parameters for that development will be
based on the recently adopted Comprehensive Plan. The staff review committee determined
that the Kimley-Horn proposal and sample report was the highest quality. Their sample report
included comparisons to other benchmark cities, references to national parking average
statistics, parking turnover rates and walking tolerances. Their proposed data collection method
included the use of a drone which will provide more accurate counts with potential for snapshot
photos of peak parking times.
This cost of the parking study is proposed to be paid with funds from the Downtown Tax
Increment Financing (TIF) district. Studies such as this are a TIF-eligible expense.
ANALYSIS:
Staff has reviewed, ranked and analyzed the proposals and recommends awarding the
professional services contract to Kimley-Horn for $58,500 for both the base scope and add
alternate scope of services.
RECOMMENDATION:
Therefore, if Council concurs, it is recommended to award a professional services LUMP SUM
contract for the Downtown Parking Study to Kimley-Horn in the amount of $58,500, subject to
City attorney review.

Project Understanding
Downtown McHenry continues to experience interest, investment, and popularity as a community hub for residents, commuters, diners,
shoppers, entertainment, and services. This past Fall, the City unveiled its Vision 2050 Downtown Plan, representing an extensive planning
process that lays out a 25-year roadmap for Downtown McHenry as the “Heart of the Fox River”. The community’s ambitions and goals for
Downtown are exciting and a cause for optimism. This effort to assess current parking across three Downtown Sub Areas will complement
the previous planning process by establishing a foundation for parking conditions and identifying strategies that will support the broader
goals, objectives, and realization of the community’s vision set forth in the Downtown Plan.
Successful downtown districts are to be celebrated, but they can also present challenges related to parking availability. To support
Downtown’s vibrancy and economic development, this study will identify the current parking needs for a range of uses and activities that
serve residents and visitors of all ages. A robust dataset will be gathered across multiple seasons to inform a data-driven assessment.
We will explore opportunities to provide an efficient and functional parking system via potential increases in capacity as well as thoughtful
policies and operational measures that will help the City manage the wide range of uses and their parking needs in the area.
Parking is a tool, as part of the overall mobility equation in a district, to support the vibrancy and success of businesses, quality of
residential life, and the range of services offered in a district. While this study focuses on parking needs, we also apply a “big picture”
approach that considers how parking fits within the overall context of Downtown and the elements that contribute to its success, including
other uses within the public realm for pedestrians, outdoor dining, seating, and more. As such, the exploration of alternative parking
strategies should consider how the public realm and other design features in the right-of-way may be impacted by or benefit from physical
parking changes.
Building on the momentum created by the Vision 2050 Downtown Plan, now is the right time for the City to evaluate the current parking
conditions and continue on the right path towards successfully realizing the plan’s implementation. Kimley-Horn will work collaboratively
with the City of McHenry to inventory current parking conditions and develop a set of parking strategies that aligns with the community’s
vision for Downtown.
The following highlights our approach and detailed tasks to successfully complete the study.

Noblesville Downtown Parking Study
͠Noblesville, IN
The City of Noblesville’s downtown is anchored by its traditional courthouse square, surrounded by a hub of restaurants, cafes, shops,
and offices, while also hosting various community events and festivals. This mix of uses and activity generates parking throughout the day
and week, demonstrating the vibrancy of the district. Kimley-Horn was engaged by the City in Spring 2024 to document current parking
conditions, address future parking needs associated with potential redevelopment in coordination with separate ongoing neighborhood
planning studies, and provide guidance on potential policies geared towards supporting growth in and adjacent to the downtown.
The downtown area was organized into sub areas based on evident walking tolerances and evaluated to balance parking demand and
supply. In addition to exploring options to maximize efficiency and accessibility, defining policies around in-lieu parking fees and managing
valet service are also being evaluated. The study is scheduled to be completed late 2024.

Main Street District Parking Study and Triangle Transportation Plan
͠O rland Park, IL
Kimley-Horn worked with the Village of Orland Park to evaluate various development scenarios for the 15-acre Main Street District, which
is adjacent to one of the Metra commuter rail stations at 142nd Street and LaGrange Road. The project team included coordination
with broader disciplines that included village staff, a commercial real estate broker, and an architect to evaluate potential multimodal
transportation and parking needs for the area as they received and considered various development proposals. The team collected field
data and evaluated traffic operations within the study area for existing conditions and with the addition of traffic within the proposed TOD
district. Kimley-Horn used its exclusive Park+ software to create a dynamic parking supply and demand model for testing a variety of peak
hour scenarios and to maximize shared parking opportunities among the commuter parking and the planned uses on site. Conceptual
parking structure layouts and alternatives that could be accommodated on various parcels were prepared to demonstrate functionality
and included a retail liner to ensure a walkable downtown district. Recommendations also were provided regarding external access
configuration, internal roadway layout and intersection control, pedestrian accommodations, and other transportation-related features
intended to balance auto and non-auto modes and promote the TOD nature of the development.
Project Highlight: Kimley-Horn guided a plan and design that integrated land use and multimodal transportation planning. In partnership
with the Village of Orland Park, Kimley-Horn contributed to development of a dynamic mixed-use activity center that supports economic
development, placemaking, and multimodal connectivity.

Hoboken Curbside Management Plan
͠Hoboken, NJ
Kimley-Horn is currently working closely with the City of Hoboken to develop a comprehensive curbside management plan. This plan
is being developed in response to the growing demand for curbside services driven by changing customer habits and technological
advancements. The plan will address several key factors that are influencing the need for a new management approach. These include the
increase in e-commerce, meal/grocery deliveries, and app-based ride-hail services, which require a more organized approach to curbside
management. Additionally, the reallocation of curb space for transit stops, bike lanes, and outdoor dining spaces is also driving the need for
a new management plan to ensure the adequate accommodation of these alternative modes of transportation.
To develop the curbside management plan, Kimley-Horn will conduct a thorough review of existing conditions, including municipal code
diagnostics, curbside digitization, supply and demand analysis, valuation, and utilization and compliance analysis. Additionally, a literature
review of existing plans, industry best practices, and peer City reviews will be conducted. Bicycle planning and infrastructure will be an
integral part of the plan, with a focus on including city staff, business alliances, and community stakeholders in the planning process. This
holistic approach will minimize conflicts and improve operational and functional outcomes for all user groups. The final result of this project
is expected to be the establishment of a comprehensive curbside management plan for the City of Hoboken.

TECHNICAL APPROACH
The following section outlines our approach for the Downtown McHenry Parking Study. These tasks are tailored based on the study goals
and Preliminary Scope of Services provided in the Request for Proposal combined with our experiences conducting similar studies in
recent years for similar communities across the country.
PHASE 1. PARTNERING WITH YOU TO CREATE A SUCCESSFUL STUDY
TASK 1.1 PROJECT INITIATION
To help ensure a seamless project initiation process, Kimley-Horn will perform the following tasks:
Information Request
Kimley-Horn will submit a request for information (RFI) to help establish baseline conditions and understanding of the City’s downtown
parking and transportation system. The RFI will include relevant parking and development data, mapping and GIS files, adopted parking
policies, any previous parking studies or plans, and other similar information as needed throughout this study. The intent is to review and
fully understand current City parking-related policies, regulations, practices, and objectives while also understanding community vision and
planning for the downtown area.
Kick-Off Meeting
Kimley Horn will facilitate a collaborative in-person kick-off meeting with City staff and appropriate stakeholders to initiate the project. This
meeting is intended to review project goals and objectives, confirm the project schedule and key milestones/deliverables for each task, and
coordinate on initial steps including data collection dates and logistics. If desired, a walking tour of the downtown study can be completed
together with City staff following the meeting.
TASK 1.2 PROJECT COORDINATION AND MILESTONE REVIEWS
Ongoing Project Coordination
Following the kick-off meeting throughout the project duration, our Project Manager will lead virtual meeting progress updates (at
least monthly, but more frequently as needed, including early stages of the study during data collection, in advance of developing
recommendations and documentation, and leading up to study presentation/adoption). The purpose of these updates is to touch base with
City staff to identify upcoming needs, review collected data, and update status and action items.
Milestone Review Meetings
For key project milestones throughout the project, Kimley-Horn will meet with City staff to present summaries of data, assessments, and
key findings. These project milestones include following existing conditions data collection (parking inventory, observed utilization patterns,
regulatory and wayfinding systems, and parking challenges/opportunities), preliminary recommendations, final recommendations and draft
report, and prep for City Council presentation of the study. Meetings can be held in-person or virtually, as coordinated with City staff.

PHASE 2. MEASURING THE CURRENT STATE OF DOWNTOWN PARKING
TASK 2.1 PARKING AND CURBSIDE INVENTORY
Kimley-Horn will conduct a parking and curbside inventory in the three defined Downtown McHenry sub areas (Riverside Drive, Green
Street, and Main Street). All parking spaces will be organized by street and block, space designation (e.g., standard, ADA-accessible, EV
charging, etc.) with noted regulations, time restrictions, and other attributes. Other curbside zones, such as carryout parking, loading, and
no parking will also be documented along with parking-related wayfinding and regulatory signs/markings. The current parking inventory
will be mapped and summarized in table formats. Collected information will serve as a baseline for the Parking Utilization Counts and
Assessment in Tasks 2.3 and 2.4.
TASK 2.2 DOWNTOWN DEVELOPED PROPERTY INVENTORY
Kimley-Horn will document the number of businesses and residential buildings within the three Downtown Sub Areas, including estimated
floor areas and unit counts. To best complete this, Kimley-Horn will coordinate with the City’s Community Development Department or other
appropriate staff to leverage current GIS files, directories, and similar resources. Study area visits and/or online maps and resources will
be used to supplement available data, as needed. Downtown properties will be identified by use and density to reference in calculations of
existing parking demand rates and inform future recommendations.
TASK 2.3 PARKING UTILIZATION COUNTS
Kimley-Horn will perform parking utilization counts for all publicly accessible parking facilities within each of the three defined Downtown
Sub Areas. Utilization counts will be collected at four different times as outlined below:
• Seasonal Peak Period Counts (Three)
»Winter 2025 + Spring 2025 + Summer 2025
»One Friday or Saturday evening each season (TBD)
»5:00 – 9:00 PM
»Hourly counts of occupied spaces
• Summer Day (One)
»Summer 2025
»One Friday (TBD)
»9:00 AM – 9:00 PM
»Hourly counts of occupied spaces
All specific count dates will be coordinated with City staff with one data collection date coinciding with a live performance at The Vixen.
For each date and time period, hourly parking utilization counts will be collected via drone imagery. This method of collecting parking
utilization information provides a robust data set to determine fluctuations in parking demand throughout the day while also providing the
City with high-resolution imagery of the entire study area for future Downtown planning exercises.
Additionally, Kimley-Horn will coordinate with the City to select up to five blocks to calculate parking turnover leveraging the drone imagery.
Calculating parking turnover in key parking locations quantifies the frequency of use and length of stay for each inventoried space within
the identified blocks and assists in determining whether spaces are being used for short-term convenience and customer parking or used
long-term by employees and residential uses.
TASK 2.4 EXISTING PARKING ASSESSMENT
Utilization and turnover data resulting from the counts will be evaluated with key takeaways, collectively and for each defined Sub Area,
and summarized graphically using maps, tables, graphs, and other formats to share with City staff. A parking “heat map” will be developed
to visually illustrate the levels of parking activity relative to capacity. This map will provide insights for areas of focus and future study
recommendations, including identifying a recommended number of spaces to effectively serve Downtowns peak parking. The resulting
parking utilization rates will be compared to desirable usage patterns for similar downtown districts.
Based on the peak parking demands observed and the inventoried development, the existing parking demand rates for downtown
development within each Sub Area will also be calculated and compared to current code requirements.

PHASE 3. DEVELOPING A DOWNTOWN PARKING STRATEGY
TASK 3.1 EXPLORE ALTERNATIVE PARKING STRATEGIES
Referencing the assessment of existing parking conditions, the City’s broader plans and vision for Downtown’s Sub Areas, and input
received through coordination with City staff, Kimley-Horn will explore and identify a range of alternative strategies to address current
needs, incorporate future functional and character considerations, and support the continued upward trajectory and evolution of the
downtown area. Based on our experience with similar studies, we anticipate recommendations to largely focus on addressing the following:
Parking Capacity: Based on the review of existing parking usage conditions, the need for additional parking capacity will be reviewed
through a data-driven approach. Where needed and beneficial, potential locations will be identified for new and/or modified on- and
off-street parking to maximize efficiency of Downtown’s parking system. Rightsizing the Downtown parking system within each Sub Area
requires a proper balance—too much added parking is costly to construct and maintain while not enough parking constrains economic
development and can frustrate residents and business customers.
In some cases, existing parking concerns are real and in others they are perceived. Our data-driven approach will tackle the need for
additional capacity and inform whether other measures are appropriate to unlock more efficient utilization of the existing parking system
through improved visibility and awareness (e.g., wayfinding and signing), applying regulations (e.g., time restrictions, user designations), or
more comfortable pedestrian accessibility (e.g., lighting, sidewalk conditions, streetscape). Options will also seek to balance the range of
needs accommodated within the available public right-of-way, including parking and travel lanes, pedestrian spaces, outdoor dining areas,
and zones for seating, plantings, lighting, bike parking, and other streetscape design features.
Regulations and Parking Efficiency: Adjustments to on- and off-street parking regulations may be recommended to maximize
the efficiency of the parking system. Potential regulations and associated parameters will be considered for parking time restrictions that
encourage turnover of high-demand spaces, residential permits for overnight parking, flexible-use spaces, and designations for short-term
customer demands where a space is needed for only a few minutes while picking up a online/mobile orders.
Demand Management: For on-street parking, recommendations considering needs for all curbside activity (e.g., loading/deliveries,
time-restricted limits, and passenger pick-up/drop-off) will be included to provide a comprehensive approach to resident, visitor, and
employee access. Parking regulations will be location-specific and may vary based on user group, current demand, adjacent land uses,
and key destinations in each Sub Area.
Expanded Public Realm: The allocation of space for uses within the constraints of public right-of-way reflects the priorities and
preferences within the district. In some locations, it may be desirable to explore opportunities to reconfigure and reallocate the portion of
the right of way serving parking and vehicular traffic to expand spaces for pedestrians, dining, and other uses beyond the curb to support
businesses and resident interests in expanding hospitality options that add vibrancy to the district while maintaining an appropriate parking
capacity.
Emerging Technologies: The parking industry is ever changing, leveraging new and emerging technologies. Kimley-Horn
will identify appropriate technology solutions and applications for the City, outlining benefits and potential limitations and trade-offs.
Recommended technologies and vendors may include solutions to address how users find parking through mobile apps, parking
enforcement, and how the parking system is monitored and adjusted over time.
EV Charging: Kimley-Horn will outline implementation strategies for EV charging stations and key planning considerations, time
limitations, and design considerations for both on-and off-street locations. Additionally, we will outline best practices on a phased approach
to deployment and recommendations for securing a vendor or product for EV charging.
127

15TRILCHIC003717.2024
Signage: Coupled with technology recommendations, Kimley-Horn will identify options for wayfinding and trailblazing signage to clearly
inform and guide users to preferred and available public parking locations. This will include a map of key locations and messaging for
recommended signage, potential technology solutions, and a summary of best practices.
Kimley-Horn will develop an implementation plan, outlining recommendations in near-term and long-term horizons to provide a roadmap
for rollout of the parking recommendations. The plan will assist in planning and capital programming and can be useful in communicating
with elected and appointed officials, interested stakeholders, and the broader community. The recommended solutions will be defined and
prioritized based on several factors such as timing, coordination or responsible party, and planning-level cost. Where appropriate, alternate
revenue sources and potential funding sources will be identified.
TASK 3.2 REFINE RECOMMENDATIONS
Following review of alternative strategies, consideration of associated benefits and challenges, and feedback provided by City staff,
Kimley-Horn will prepare a summary of final study recommendations.
PHASE 3 DELIVERABLES
• Alternative Parking Strategies Summary
• Final Recommendations
PHASE 4. REPORT AND PRESENTATION
TASK 4.1 PREPARE STUDY REPORT AND DOCUMENTATION
Based upon the above work tasks, Kimley-Horn will prepare a formal report, with appropriate maps, tables, and graphics, documenting the
study methodology and process, City staff input, parking data collected, evaluation, key findings, and the recommended parking strategies.
A draft copy of the study will be provided to the City for review. Incorporating staff comments and feedback, the report will be revised
before finalizing the document.
TASK 4.2 STUDY PRESENTATION TO CITY COUNCIL
Kimley-Horn will attend one City Council meeting to present an overview of the Downtown Parking Study, including methodology, process,
data collected, evaluation and key findings, and recommended strategies for Downtown McHenry. Kimley-Horn will be available to address
questions from the City Council and other stakeholders at the meeting. In advance, Kimley-Horn will prepare appropriate materials (e.g.,
slide deck, exhibits, etc.) a preview of the presentation for City staff review and comment.
PHASE 4 DELIVERABLES
• Draft/Final Report (10 bound hard copies + PDF)
• City Council Prep Meeting with City Staff
• City Council Meeting Presentation
PHASE 5. (OPTIONAL) GREEN STREET DEVELOPMENT PARKING PLAN
As an optional task, Kimley-Horn will evaluate the parking needs of potential mixed-use redevelopment in the Green Street area. The
following tasks outline the approach to integrate this optional analysis into the study.
TASK 5.1 MIXED-USE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM PARKING PROJECTIONS
Kimley-Horn will coordinate with City staff to confirm the development program for the new mixed-use development including the uses,
associated floor areas and unit counts, and site footprint(s). Based on demand characteristics identified in Phase 2 of this study and data
available through industry resources, Kimley-Horn will develop parking projections for the subject redevelopment plan. Parking projections
will be distributed over the hours of a typical weekday and weekend using shared parking principles to reflect the demand characteristics
for each use and the collective hourly demands for the overall project. Displacement of parking demand and capacity, to the extent existing
properties are impacted, will also be factored.

TASK 5.2 PARKING RECOMMENDATION
The conceptual development plan, at this time, appears flexible regarding the type and configuration of parking (e.g., structured
parking, surface lot, or some hybrid). Based on the projections in Task 5.1, review of the conceptual plan, and a deeper understanding
of the parking conditions within the Green Street Sub Area developed through this study, Kimley-Horn will outline a recommendation
to accommodate parking for the mixed-use development plan. The parking recommendation will include a total number of spaces to
serve the overall plan and identify spaces that may be shared versus those exclusive to specific uses. Kimley-Horn will outline key
considerations associated with different parking types and locations, including parking capacity, access and circulation, integration with
the overall development plan, and connectivity with the surrounding Green Street Sub Area. In coordination with City staff and the broader
goals of the development plan, Kimley-Horn will identify a recommended parking approach in terms of capacity, facility type, and location
for the project.

RE: Ordinance Adopting Text Amendments to the City of McHenry Historic
Preservation Ordinance
ATT:
1. Ordinance Adopting Text Amendments to the City of McHenry Historic Preservation
Ordinance.
AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY:
The City of McHenry Historic Preservation Ordinance currently allows Landmark Commissioners
to be appointed to 3-year staggered terms at the recommendation of the Mayor and majority
vote by City Council. Staff is proposing text amendments to align the existing ordinance with
other appointed commissions, such as Planning & Zoning Commission, to 1-year terms that
expire on April 30th of each year. The proposed changes would allow staff to more effectively
manage instances of chronic absenteeism in coordination with the Mayor. The text
amendments would also allow the Commission flexibility in scheduling meetings that are
currently mandated to be the first Tuesday of the month. The Council will also be voting on
reappointing existing members to new 1-year terms.
If the City Council concurs, it is recommended that the attached Ordinance Adopting Text
Amendments to the City of McHenry Historic Preservation Ordinance be approved (City
Council Vote, Simple Majority).

Contact: Bill Hobson, Director of Parks & Recreation – 815/363-2159
Fox Ridge Park Ice Rinks
The parks maintenance team was able to get the two ice rinks at Fox Ridge Park up and usable
this past week. The rinks were established and opened for the first time this season two weeks
ago. Unfortunately, kids went on the ice and broke the outer edges all around both
rinks. When staff attempted to reflood both rinks’ holes were discovered in the liners. All the
ice had to be removed and new liners purchased and installed. The new rinks were flooded,
froze and opened on January 13th. The South rink is an open skate rink and the North rink has
goals for hockey. There are lights on the rinks and the amenity is being utilized. Staff will
continue to maintain the rinks for as long as the weather cooperates.
Wheeler Fen
The department continues to partner and work with the IDNR to manage the Wheeler
Fen. Time has been spent by both agencies removing trees and invasive species such as
159
buckthorn from the property. The IDNR looks to conduct a prescribed burn of the property in
the next month should conditions continue to cooperate.
Veteran’s Memorial Park
Staff has confirmed the order of the new playground equipment at Vet’s Park. The project is
anticipated to be installed in March. Additionally, a program entitled Kids Around the World is
interested in the reuse of a number of elements of the existing playground. The equipment is
removed with care and sent overseas for re-use.
Additionally, the department has been approached by the McHenry Garden Club about the
placement of a Blue Star Memorial in the Northeast corner of the park. “The Blue Star Program
honors all men and women that serve in the United States Armed Services. This program began
with the planting of 8,000 Dogwood trees by the New Jersey Council of Garden Clubs in 1944 as
a living memorial to veterans of World War II. In 1945, the National Council of State Garden
Clubs (now NGC, Inc.) adopted this program and began a Blue Star Highway system that covers
thousands of miles across the Continental United States, Alaska, and Hawaii. Blue Star
Memorial Highway Markers were placed along the way. The Blue Star was adopted because it
had become an icon in World War II and was seen on flags and banners in homes for sons and
daughters away at war as well as in churches and businesses.” Staff will continue to work out
the details toward the addition of this element to the park.
