PUBLIC HEARING
TO: Mayor and City Council
FOR: July 20, 2015 Regular City Council Meeting
FROM: Douglas Martin, Director of Economic Development
RE: Public Hearing and consideration of the First Amendment to the Preserves of
Boone Creek Annexation Agreement including acceptance of a Plat of
Dedication for Right -of -Way along Bull Valley and Curran Roads
ATT:
1. Location Map
2. Ordinance authorizing execution of the First Amendment to the Preserves of Boone
Creek Annexation Agreement
3. Draft First Amendment to the Preserves of Boone Creek Annexation Agreement
4. Originally approved (April 11, 2005) Preserves of Boone Creek Annexation Agreement
5. Plat of Dedication for Right -of -Way along Bull Valley and Curran Roads
BACKGROUND: On April 11, 2005 the City entered into an annexation agreement for the
subdivision and development of the approximately 300-acre property north of Bull Valley Road
and east and west of Curran Roads. The agreement includes the approval of a concept plan for
the development of 414 single-family homes, 136 townhome dwelling units and commercial
property at the intersection of Bull Valley and Curran Roads. Due to the downturn in the
economy the development was annexed and zoned however has not received any type of
subdivision plat approval (preliminary or final).
At the June 15, 2015 City Council meeting staff brought forth a proposed amendment to the
Preserves of Boone Creek Annexation Agreement. Due to increasing traffic and safety concerns
at the intersection of Curran and Bull Valley Roads staff sought funds, through the McHenry
County Council of Mayors Surface Transportation Policy program to facilitate the completion of
roadway improvements to this intersection. The improvements include the installation of a
traffic signal and corresponding roadway widening and construction of turn lanes at Curran and

www.ci.mchenry.il.us
Bull Valley Roads. In order to complete these roadway improvements, however additional
right-of-way along Curran and Bull Valley Roads is required.
Staff approached Roger Gerstad to discuss obtaining the right-of-way necessary. Obtaining the
right-of-way required in a timely manner to complete this project is critical in order to preserve
the grant funding. Approaching Mr. Gerstad to obtain the right-of-way necessary and
amending the Preserves of Boone Creek Annexation Agreement to do so as opposed to a more
formal land acquisition process was in staff's belief, a more efficient option. In exchange for
dedicating the right-of-way staff proposed extending the current Preserves of Boone Creek
Annexation Agreement for an additional 10 years which will expire in April 2025 without a 10-
year extension.
Concerns were expressed at the City Council meeting pertaining to the amendment staff
proposed including:
• There was no increase associated with the $400,000 road contribution/in-kind roadway
improvement amount, to be utilized for improvements to the Curran/Bull Valley Road
intersection which was in the original agreement as it related to the proposed 10-year
extension proposed as part of the amendment to the annexation agreement;
• Status of the West McHenry Bypass and assuring the necessary right-of-way could be
acquired should the bypass or additional roadway improvements along the bypass route
be constructed in the future;
• Consideration of a roundabout at the intersection of Curran and Bull Valley Road as
opposed to a traditional traffic control signal with turn lanes.
ANALYSIS: Following the meeting on June 15, 2015 staff spoke with Mr. Gerstad about the
concerns and researched the status of the West McHenry Bypass. As a result the following
provisions have been included in a redraft of the First Amendment to the Preserves of Boone
Creek Annexation Agreement.
• The McHenry County 2040 Long .Range Transportation Plan includes a Motorized
Vehicle Plan; List of Future Motor Vehicle Projects and Motor Vehicles Projects and Plan
Goals Evaluation Summary, which staff has attached as an exhibit to the proposed
amendment. While the West McHenry Bypass is not formally included or mentioned in
the County's long-range plan, there is a proposed New Congestion Mitigation Route
proposed southwest of McHenry, which extends from Illinois Route 31 west and
crossing the Union Pacific Railroad Tracks extending west of Crystal Lake Road and north
along Curran Road bisecting the Preserves of Boone Creek property. Staff and City

Attorney redrafted the paragraph in the original annexation agreement addressing the
West McHenry Bypass and included the aforementioned changes.
• Mr. Gerstad has agreed to an increase on the $400,000 road contribution amount
beginning on May 1, 2025 and each subsequent year through 2035 which includes the
10-year extension. The $400,000 amount will be adjusted upward by the percent that
the Chicago Area Price Index increases from the preceding year for that ten-year time
period;
• Mr. Gerstad has agreed to dedicate all the right-of-way along Curran Road beyond the
right-of-way dedication considered at the June 15, 2015 meeting. This additional right-
of-way amounts to a 90' X 1,333' dedication along the east side of Curran Road or 2.75
acres and includes the entire northern property extension of the Preserves of Boone
Creek Subdivision. Previously, the right-of-way dedication was 1,240' X 180' or 5.12
acres to accommodate the immediate improvements to the intersection of Curran and
Bull Valley Roads;
• Staff researched the construction of a proposed roundabout as an alternative to a
traditional intersection and this was considered and evaluated as a potential option.
However at this location a roundabout would be need to accommodate multiple lanes
within the roundabout due to the future traffic volumes at the intersection. Therefore a
roundabout at this location, while being a potential alternative, was determined to be
undesirable from an engineering and functionality perspective and therefore not
pursued due to the planned land uses and traffic volumes which will need to be
accommodated as well as the amount of additional land/right-way which would be
required.
If the City Council concurs it's recommended to approve the attached ordinance authorizing
the Mayor's execution of the First Amendment to the Preserves of Boone Creek Annexation
Agreement between the City of McHenry, First Midwest Bank Trust #4562, First Midwest
Bank Trust #13375 and Gerstad Builders. (Mayor and City Council vote 2/3 majority or 6 votes
required for approval).

COMMUNITYARCHITECTURAL STANDARDS
Introduction
The purpose of these architectural standards is to define the criteria that will guide development at The
Preserves of Boone Creek. Like any community, The Preserves of Boone Creek will grow gradually
over a period of years. Its ultimate form will reflect the numerous design decisions of builders and
their design teams. These standards are intended to provide the foundation upon which The Preserves
of Boone Creek will emerge.
The architectural standards have been prepared to assist builders, planners, architects, engineers and
landscape architects to become active participants in the design process, and to assure long- term
community quality. They are not intended to limit development choices or design alternatives, but
rather to encourage creativity, innovation and architectural diversity, while creating a blend of home
styles which will enhance the community environment. The ultimate result will be to heighten
property values while creating a cohesive residential character and appeal.
These standards have been adopted pursuant to the The Preserves of Boone Creek Declaration of
Covenants, Conditions, Restrictions & Easements. All building and development at The Preserves of
Boone Creek must conform to these architectural standards, the The Preserves of Boone Creek
Annexation Agreement, and the City of McHenry building code and zoning ordinance where these
ordinances do not conflict with the Annexation Agreement,
The Review Process
The standards also outline an efficient and equitable review process that will be administered by the
The Preserves of Boone Creek Architectural Review Committee. The ARC has been established in
recorded documents governing the project, for the purpose of implementing the Architectural
Standards.
A representative of the Architectural Review Committee is available to help you interpret the
standards, offering suggestions about your housing concepts. We urge you to meet with the
Architectural Review Committee representative as early as possible to assist in your decision to build
at The Preserves of Boone Creek,

All proposed building and development within the overall community of The Preserves of Boone
Creek must be reviewed and approved by the The Preserves of Boone Creek Architectural Review
Committee Prior to seeking City approval.
The Architectural Review Committee consists of three members appointed by the Gerstad Builders,
Inc. The committee will review each builder's development package for conformance to The
Preserves of Boone Creek architectural standards, and will review individual homeowners' submittals
using the same standards. A sign -off letter of compliance will be issued by the Committee to identify
acceptance with the standard. A copy of this will be forwarded to the City of McHenry Planning and
Development Department.
All reviews substitutions and approvals by the Architectural Review Committee will be considered
binding and final.
Representatives of the Architectural Review Committee will stay intact as a functional governing
body until such time that the entire The Preserves of Boone Creek community is noo complete. At
such time, review and authoritative power will be transferred to the The Preserves of Boone Creek
Homeowners' Association,
The Architectural Review Committee will have authority over new construction and exterior
remodels, additions and other improvements.
The Architectural Standards should be used as a tool by each submitting builder or homeowner far
making decisions on their neighborhood, product and planning design schemes. To obtain specific
information on the requirements and procedures for design review contact Gerstad Builders, Inc.

Community Character
The Preserves of Boone Creek is a planned 300-acre community located in the rolling farmlands in the
lakes region of McHenry County. Eventually, it will be home to approximately 550 new residences
surrounded by many parks and natural areas.
The Preserves of Boone Creek is envisioned as a new multi -use community intended to provide a
comfortable and rewarding environment in which to live and play. A coherent and orderly pattern of
"neighborhoods", natural open space, and planned amenities will merge with the site's natural
characteristics, beauty and history.
Curran and Bull Valley Roads are the roadways that will provide convenient access to this 300-acre
community. A new internal roadway system will connect the various residential neighborhoods and
provide easy access to the remainder of the community's amenities.

General Site Development Guidelines
The City has approved a Final Development Plan for each single-family neighborhood. While final
development plans have also been approved for multi -family neighborhoods, where possible each Builder is
free to alter specific multifamily neighborhood plans so long as it is consistent with the spirit of these
guidelines and the overall theme of the community, matches the type of land use purchased, does not
deleteriously affect surrounding neighborhoods, is approved by the Developer, the ARC, and the City, and
otherwise complies with all applicable rules and regulations. Where a Builder seeks to alter any neighborhood
plan, the following general framework of site design and improvement guidelines has been developed to ensure
the successful integration of each neighborhood into the overall community.
• Common community design elements will be repeated to integrate each neighborhood into the overall
community.
• The siting of the buildings and improvements should focus on maintaining "quality views".
• Site Planning must consider the context of the neighborhood within the community: The placement of
buildings and streets, grading design, landscaping and buffer yard locations, and relationships to adjacent
properties.
• The monotony code is as follows: Identical models or models of similar design with identical front
elevations may be erected no more often than every third lot along the same frontage. Identical models or
models of similar design, with identical front elevations, shall not be constructed directly across the street
or other right-of-way from the front of that model. Identical models or models of similar design with
significantly different front elevations may be erected on every second lot without regard to intervening
street lines.
• Vacant homesites shall be kept free of all rubble and debris and mowed at a height not to exceed 8".
• Trees that are to be preserved are to be protected to the limit of their roots from construction equipment by
fencing off with temporary snow fence for protection. Fenced -in areas shall not be used for any type of
material storage or use other than root protection zone.
• Building setbacks shall be in accordance to the concept plan approved by the city council or the McHenry
Zoning Ordinance as part of the annexation agreement. Those areas where amendments have been made are
Neighborhoods 3 & 5, and setbacks in said neighborhoods will be dictated by the applicable variance.
• All improvements shall conform to the overall approved Final Engineering plan.
• Effective erosion control measures shall exist throughout the construction phase of each neighborhood,
consistent with the erosion control plan in the Utility Plan. These measures may include temporary swales,
berms, siltation fences, straw bales and temporary sedimentation ponds. All erosion control devices and
protective fencing shall be maintained at all times.
• All grading shall comply with overall stormwater management and wetland mitigation plans.
• Site and drainage plans must be designed to pxevent run-off, protect wetlands and insure proper
retention/detention.
• The visual impact of parked automobiles shall be minimized where applicable through careful siting and
screening of roads and parking areas.
• Any proposed changes to site and/or engineering plans must be reviewed and approved by the Developer,
the ARC and the City.
• The above standards supplement all other requirements contained in each builder's Purchase Agreement,
The Preserves of Boone Creek Annexation Agreement and all other applicable municipal, state and federal
laws and ordinances.

COMMUNITYARCHITECTURAL STANDARDS
Community Infrastructure
The final Engineering plan has been prepared by the Developer and approved by the City. This plan
indicates what utilities and infrastructure improvements will be provided to each neighborhood.
In general, in all single-family neighborhoods, the Developer will complete all infrastructure
requirements. All single-family lots are available as finished lots with all utilities available to each lot.
Individual lot utility connections, final lot grading and landscaping are the responsibility of the
builder, upon approval of site and landscape plans by the Architectural Review Committee. Multi-
family neighborhoods will have utilities available to the site. All internal utility requirements and
connections, grading and landscaping are the responsibility of the multi family neighborhood builder,
subject to approval by the Developer.
A copy of The Final Engineering Plan may be obtained from the Developer.
Erosion control at The Preserves of Boone Creek is an important component of environmental
responsibility. Woods, wetlands and ponds are all significant natural features, which enhance the
value of The Preserves of Boone Creek. These features are vulnerable to erosion damage stemming
from construction activities. Builders and/or developers will be expected to install and maintain
erosion control and siltation management devices as required by local, state and federal jurisdictions
and approved by the Developer. All multifamily neighborhoods must abide by the erosion control
plan for The Preserves of Boone Creek.

General Landscape Guidelines
All builders in the community are required to install a landscape package for each single-family home
or multi -family community as set forth in the Annexation Agreement, and as summarized on the
following pages.
This landscape section has been designed to provide Property owners, Architects, Contractors and
Builders with important information related to the development of homes to insure a harmonious
neighborhood streetscape and to protect the aesthetic quality of the overall community.
The objective is to reinforce the naiural character of the community. The recommended landscape
character should emphasize an informal scene by encouraging use of native plant materials and natural
areas. Front yard plantings should be sympathetic to the overall neighborhood streetscape in form,
texture and simplicity of design. This can be achieved, in the single-family areas, by limiting the front
yard planting to lawn, trees and informal plantings.
Plantings should be designed to provide privacy for the homeowner and the neighbors. Plantings
along common property lines should be informal unsheared plantings.
APPROPRIATE FRONT &SIDE YARD
• Informal
• Shredded bark mulch
• Flowing layered beds

COMMUNITY ARCHITECT URAL STANDARDS
Single -Family Landscape Planting
Requirements
To create a "streetscape effect" that is consistent throughout each neighborhood and the entire
development, following are the minimum planting requirements. The following minimum standards
for single-family neighborhoods are in addition to any landscaping of public areas provided by the
Developer. The Architectural Review Committee must approve all original landscape plans.
In all neighborhoods, all front and side yards must be sodded; rear yards may be seeded.
• A minimum of 4" of topsoil is used.
• As a minimum standard, IDOT Class 1 Lawn Mixture seed must be used.
• Silt fences and other erosion control devices must remain in place until the lawn is fully
established.

consist, at a minimum, of the following.
• 8 deciduous or evergreen shrubs with a minimum height of 18"
• 1 ornamental or upright evergreen tree with a minimum height of 6'
Plans with different combinations of plants maybe submitted to the Developer and City for approval.
One 4" caliper shade tree shall be provided in every other rear yard where lots that back up to other
The Preserves of Boone Creek lots. Rear at trees shall not be required on lots that abut open space,
or in wooded areas. Builders shall be required to install in neighborhood parkways (defined as the
area in front of houses, between the sidewalk and curb) one tree for each house, with two trees for

COMMUNITY ARCHITECTURAL STANDARDS
Multi -Family Landscape Design
In neighborhoods two, three, and four, landscape design elements should provide a unifying theme to
the entire The Preserves of Boone Creek community. The overall design goal should be the creation
of a pleasant, safe and protected environment that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. This
goal cannot be met without adequate landscaping. The principles of good design and functional, yet
simple solutions provided by a limited variety of materials should not be overlooked. Maintenance of
these areas is as important as the original design concept. The following architectural standards will
help to direct landscape improvements that will be consistent throughout the community. The
Architectural Review Committee must approve all original landscape plans.
In the multi -family areas, landscaping should enhance major natural and improved common area site
elements through the use of foliage color and texture, plant forms and plant masses. A simplified list
A plant materials, which maintains the proposed theme of the landscape, should be used. Visual
confusion due to the use of many unrelated plant varieties should not be employed to avoid complex
plant mixtures.
In the multi -family areas, landscape design should provide for effective screening of parking areas,
utilities and service areas. This will reduce the possibility of negative visual impacts. when viewed
from major adjacent streets. Grouped masses of plant material should be designed to complement
architectural elevations, blank walls and rooflines through color, texture, density and form on both the
horizontal and vertical planes.
Minimum standards for multi -family landscape planning are set forth in the Annexation Agreement
and are summarized on the following page.

PUBLIC HEARING

FROM: Douglas Martin, Director of Economic Development
RE: Public Hearing and consideration of an annexation agreement, annexation,

use as a PADS (Public Action to Deliver Shelter) facility and temporary sign
variances for the property located at 1809 South Illinois Route 31

BACKGROUND: The Chapel currently holds worship services at McHenry High School West
Campus, and they have done so for the past several years. The Chapel appeared before the
City Council on August 19, 2013 (minutes attached) to obtain a conditional use permit to allow

an assembly use to construct a new church bung. The City Council authorized execution of
an annexation agreement and approved an ordinance annexing the property and granted a
conditional use permit to allow an assembly use. The Chapel subsequently purchased the
property located at 414 S Crystal Lake Road (Koehn Farm).
In the interim The Chapel was provided an opportunity to locate in an existing building, 1809
South Illinois Route 31 and has decided to pursue the annexation of this property to the City of
McHenry, renovation of the existing building and eventually hold services at 1809 South Illinois
Route 31. Currently, the Chapel is utilizing the building, formerly occupied by Tonerhead for
administrative space as well as small group functions. If approved The Chapel intends to
continue utilize the building in the aforementioned manner and when they raise sufficient
funds to complete interior and exterior alterations, hook-up to City sewer and water and install
sprinklers they will have a permanent facility and discontinue holding services at McHenry West
High School. The property at 1809 South Illinois Route 31 is zoned I-1 Industrial in
unincorporated McHenry County and contains a one-story 53,000 square -foot building
constructed in 1967. There are two freestanding signs currently on the site as well as a
billboard.
In accordance with the building code, as long as no more than 100 people occupy the building
at 1809 South Illinois Route 31 at any one time The Chapel can continue to utilize it for
administrative space and holding small group functions. Staff and McHenry Township Fire
Protection District have walked -through the building and are comfortable with this plan moving
forward.
Similar to the Koehn Farm the property located at 1809 South Illinois Route 31 is currently
located in unincorporated McHenry County so annexation to the City is required. If annexed
the property will automatically be zoned E Estate District. A conditional use permit is required;
however, for an assembly use and as part of this request The Chapel is also seeking approval to
serve as an overnight Public Action to Deliver Shelter (PADS) site one night/week. An assembly
use is defined as follows:
A building, structure, place or parts thereof for groups of people to gather for an event or
regularly scheduled program that is educational, cultural, spiritual, social, or recreational in
nature. The only exceptions to this definition include: building, tenant space, room or space
used for public assembly purposes as defined herein with an occupant load of 25 persons or
less and spaces less than 750 square feet in floor area.
Assembly uses include religious institutions in addition to any other type of larger gathering
place. The Chapel is proposing to renovate the existing building and construct a church facility,

with a seating capacity of approximately 460 people. Two hundred twenty-seven parking
spaces are depicted on the site plan. An assembly use of this type requires .25 spaces/person
design capacity of the facility. The site plan depicts the majority of the parking west of the
existing building with driveway wrapping around the entire building. Currently, there are three
access points onto Illinois Route 31 from the subject property.
Staff believes this is an appropriate location for this type of assembly use which will not
adversely impact neighboring properties or public safety and health. It is staff's belief the use
will not require any additional public services and is compatible with the surrounding area and
easily accessible off of a state roadway. Staff's primary concern is the traffic which will be
generated from the use during the proposed service times as well as providing safe ingress and
egress to and from the subject property.
The applicant has submitted a traffic study. The traffic study analyzes traffic flow assuming The
Chapel will hold two services on Sunday morning and conduct minimal activities during the
week. The study recommends Illinois Route 31 be restriped to provide a two-way left -turn lane
to serve the site and Waste Management facility immediately to the north. It should be noted
the Illinois Department of Transportation has jurisdiction over Illinois Route 31 and will dictate
Oat off -site roadway improvements should be completed and how the existing and new
access points should be designed. A traffic signal is planned at Veterans Parkway and Illinois
Route 31 and is scheduled to be installed when the warrants for the signal are met. The traffic
signal was included as part of the annexation agreement which annexed 90 acres to the east
and north of the subject property. This includes Morgan Hill Subdivision and Prairie Pointe
Business Park.
The Illinois Department of Transportation is also undergoing along -term roadway improvement
plan for Route 31 from Illinois Route 176 to the south to Illinois Route 120 to the north. Staff
has recommended The Chapel make every reasonable effort to obtain an access easement from
Waste Management to have the ability to access the traffic signal upon installation at Veterans
Parkway and Illinois Route 31. The Chapel property and Waste Management site are currently
interconnected and accessing a future signal would benefit The Chapel and be utilized primarily
when Waste Management is not operating at full capacity -on the weekend. Staff is working
with the applicant to determine if this easement already exists and if it does no further cross
access easement will be required to be obtained from Waste Management.
It is the intent of The Chapel to connect to City sewer and water and install a sprinkler system at
such time the majority of the building renovations are undertaken. When these renovations
are done all applicable City ordinances will be required to be met including: building, zoning
and stormwater.

Attached are several pictures of the subject property. There some property maintenance items
which staff recommends be completed immediately. These deal primarily with weed and trash
removal and ensuring adequate parking lot lighting is in place. Staff is also recommending one
of the two freestanding signs be removed within 90 days of annexation to the City and the
billboard be removed when the future renovations occur or prior to the expiration of the
conditional use for an assembly use (five years), whichever occurs first. Temporary sign
variances are required in order for the Chapel to maintain the two freestanding signs for 90
Jays following annexation and also to allow the billboard to remain in accordance with the
aforementioned conditions.
The Chapel has been a great partner with the City and has been extremely cooperative and
worked very well with the City in preparing the property previously annexed and cooperating
with abutting property owners in cleaning up the site at 414 Crystal Lake Road, razing the
existing structures, removing brush and trimming trees, etc. Chapel staff has been very

Unapproved Planning and Zoning Commission Minutes
June 17, 2015
Chairman Strach called the June 17, 2015 regularly scheduled meeting of the City of McHenry
Planning and Zoning Commission to order at 7:30 p.m. In attendance were the following:
Doherty, Bromley, Nadeau, Strach, and Thacker. Absent: Vallez, Sobotta. Also in attendance
were: Director of Economic Development Martin, City Attorney Cahill, and Planning and Zoning
Secretary Wolf.
Public Hearing: The Chapel
File No. Z-864
1809 S. Illinois Route 31
Conditional use permit to allow an assembly use including aone-night/week
Use as a PADS (Public Action to Deliver Shelter) site
Chairman Strach called the Public Hearing to order at 8:13 p.m. regarding File No Z-864 an
application for a conditional use permit to allow an assembly use including a one-night/week
use as a PADS (Public Action to Deliver Shelter) site as submitted by the Chapel for the property
located at 1809 S. Illinois Route 31.
Chairman Strach stated Notice of the Public Hearing was published in the Northwest Herald on
May 30, 2015. Notices were mailed to all abutting property owners of record as required by
ordinance. The subject property was posted. A Certificate of Publication and Affidavit of
Compliance with notice requirements are on file in the City Clerk's Office.
In attendance was Mr. Jeff Pittman, 313 S. Cross Trail, McHenry, IL, Campus Pastor of the
Chapel in McHenry, who was sworn in by Chairman Strach and provided a summary of the
request before the Commission at this Hearing stating they have been in the community for
about 5 years. Mr. Pittman stated The Chapel originally planned to build a church on land at
414 S. Crystal Lake Rd., but since that property was purchased an opportunity to obtain the
property at 1809 S. Route 31 became available to them which already has an existing building
on it that will save them money to renovate rather than building a new facility from the ground
up. He stated they plan on selling the land on Crystal Lake Rd. to help fund renovations on the
new property. Mr. Pittman also stated they are open to being a PADS location on a weekly

rotation in the future at the new church facility. They are in the process of being annexed into
the City of McHenry and will need a conditional use for assembly use once the annexation is
complete. Mr. Pittman stated they love the McHenry community and it is their desire to
continue to be a blessing to the community, which includes being a good neighbor.
Deputy City Administrator Martin provided the Commission with the Staff Report regarding this
matter stating the property is zoned 1-1 Industrial in unincorporated McHenry County and
contains a one-story 53,000 square -foot building constructed in 1967.
The Chapel currently holds worship services at McHenry High School West Campus, and they
have done so for the past several years. The Chapel appeared before the Planning and Zoning
Commission on July 25, 2013 to obtain a conditional use permit to allow an assembly use to
construct a new church building. The City Council authorized execution of an annexation
agreement, approved an ordinance annexing the property, and granted a conditional use
permit to allow an assembly use. The Chapel subsequently purchased the property located at
414 S Crystal Lake Road (Koehn Farm).
In the interim The Chapel was provided an opportunity to locate in an existing building, 1809
South Illinois Route 31, and have decided to pursue the annexation of this property to the City
of McHenry (consisting of approximately 4.71 acres), renovation of the existing building, and
eventually hold services at 1809 South Illinois Route 31. Currently, the Chapel is utilizing the
building, formerly occupied by Tonerhead, for administrative space as well as small group
functions. If approved, The Chapel intends to continue to utilize the building in the
aforementioned manner and when they raise enough funds to complete interior and exterior
aIterations, hook-up to City sewer and water, and install sprinklers they will have a permanent
facility and discontinue holding services at McHenry West High School.
In accordance with the building code, as long as no more than 100 people occupy the building
at 1809 South Illinois Route 31 at any one time The Chapel can continue to utilize it for
administrative space and holding small group functions. Staff and McHenry Township Fire
Protection District have walked -through the building and are comfortable with this plan moving
forward.
Similar to the Koehn Farm the property located at 1809 South Illinois Route 31 is currently
located in unincorporated McHenry County so annexation to the City is required. Staff is
working with the Chapel on an annexation agreement for this property, which will be presented
to the City Council. If annexed, the property will automatically be zoned E Estate District. A
conditional use permit is required, however, for an assembly use and as part of this request The
Chapel is seeking approval to possibly serve as an overnight Public Action to Deliver Shelter
(PADS) site one night/week.

Assembly uses include religious institutions in addition to any other type of larger gathering
place. The Chapel is proposing to renovate the existing building and construct a church facility,
with a seating capacity of approximately 460 people. Two hundred twenty-seven parking
spaces are depicted on the site plan. An assembly use of this type requires .25 spaces/person
design capacity of the facility. The site plan depicts the majority of the parking west of the
existing building with a driveway wrapping around the entire building. Currently, there are
three access points onto Illinois Route 31 from the subject property.
Staff believes this is an appropriate location for this type of assembly use which will not
adversely impact neighboring properties or public safety and health. It is staffs belief the use
will not require any additional public services and is compatible with the surrounding area and
easily accessible off of a state roadway. In reviewing criteria for a conditional use permit, staff's
primary concern is the traffic which will be generated from the use during the proposed service
times as well as providing safe ingress and egress to and from the subject property. The
applicant has submitted a traffic study. The traffic study analyzes traffic flow assuming The
Chapel will hold two services on Sunday morning and minimal activities during the week. The
study recommends Illinois Route 31 be restriped to provide a two-way left -turn lane to serve
the site and Waste Management facility immediately to the north. It should be noted the
Illinois Department of Transportation has jurisdiction over Illinois Route 31 and will dictate
what off -site roadway improvements should be completed and how the existing and new
access points should be designed. A traffic signal is planned at Veterans Parkway and Illinois
Route 31 and will be installed when the warrants for the signal are met. The traffic signal was
included as part of the annexation agreement which annexed 90 acres to the east and north of
the subject property. This includes Morgan Hill Subdivision and Prairie Pointe Business Park.
The Illinois Department of Transportation is also undergoing along -term roadway improvement
plan for Route 31 from Illinois Route 176 to the south to Illinois Route 120 to the north. Staff
has recommended The Chapel obtain an access easement from Waste Management to have
the ability to access the traffic signal upon installation at Veterans Parkway and Illinois Route
31. The Chapel property and Waste Management site are currently interconnected and
accessing a future signal would benefit The Chapel and be utilized primarily when Waste
Management is not operating at full capacity -on the weekend.
It is the intent of The Chapel to connect to City sewer and water and install a sprinkler system at
such time the building renovations are undertaken. When these renovations are done all
applicable City ordinances will be required to be met, including building, zoning and
stormwater.

There some property maintenance items which staff recommends are completed immediately
or at minimum in a timely manner. These deal primarily with weed and trash removal;
relocation of the dumpsters, and ensuring adequate parking lot lighting is in place. Staff is also
recommending one of the two freestanding signs be removed.
The Chapel has been a great partner with the City, has been extremely cooperative and worked
very well with the City in preparing the property previously annexed and cooperating with
abutting property owners in cleaning up the site at 414 Crystal Lake Road, razing the existing
structures, removing brush and trimming trees, etc. Chapel staff has been very responsive to all
concerns staff has raised. Additionally, staff has been working with The Chapel on the site at
1809 S Illinois Route 31 for several months and supports the proposed conditional use at 1809 S
Illinois Route 31.
Staff recommends approval of a conditional use permit to allow an assembly use, including a
one-night/week use as a PADS (Public Action to Deliver Shelter) site, at 1809 South Illinois
Route 31 with the following conditions:
• The site is developed in substantial conformance with the site plan prepared by
Skiffington Architects, LTD dated 9/25/14;
• An annexation agreement be negotiated and presented to the City Council

• All existing lighting standards shall be tested to ensure the minimum parking lot lighting
requirements, outlined in the City's zoning ordinance, are met within 90 days of City
Council approval of the annexation;
• Following completion of interior and exterior building renovations and prior to a
certificate of occupancy being issued on the subject property for an assembly use, the
existing well and septic systems shall be abandoned and sewer and water shall be

occupancy is approved by the City, following complete renovations to the building.
Staff finds the requirements of Table 31 of the zoning ordinance have been met. Deputy of
Economic Development Martin stated Mr. Pittman had a concern with the timing allowed to
Jean up the property maintenance issues and relocation of the dumpsters noting that staff was
open to suggestions at this hearing to reach a compromise on these two conditions.
Chairman Strach invited questions and/or comments from the Commission.
Commissioner Bromley asked for verification that the Chapel is not relocating their church
services to this building yet but simply using it for small group meetings. Mr. Pittman replied
that is correct, the space is only being used for youth groups and meetings for now until
renovations are completed. Church services will not move to the new building until that time.

Commissioner Bromley expressed safety concerns with the site being used as a PADS site and
inquired what the process was to become a PADS site. Mr. Pittman replied they are only
beginning the process of researching the requirements and that nothing will happen until the
facility is fully renovated and safe, and that is conditioned on the Chapel being accepted as a
PADS site. Director of Economic Development Martin stated they are requesting the ability for
PADS to be housed in the building just one night a week. The parking plan does allow excess
space for PADS usage.
Commissioner Doherty expressed concern for the safety of a PADS site in relation to sidewalks,
inquiring if they were included in the plan along Route 31 at least to the traffic signal. Director
of Economic Development Martin stated everything is conditioned on the Chapel working with
IDOT, but presently there is no plan asking for offsite sidewalks.
Chairman Strach opened the floor to questions and comments from the audience. Mr. Ryan
McGuire, 801 N Jefferson Street, Harvard, IL 60003, was sworn in by Chairman Strach prior to
addressing the Commission stating he manages the property at 1811 S. Route 31 and the
owners of that property asked him to get information on the subject property being used as a
PADS site. Their concerns were mainly regarding the number of people that would be serviced,
transportation, hours and days of operation and construction safety. He stated they believe the
shelter would be good for the community and only want to be educated on the process.
Director of Economic Development Martin reiterated the request for PADS is only for one night
a week and the exact day cannot be known at this time. He further stated that parking and
safety issues will be scrutinized. Mr. Martin stated the City of McHenry has had other Host
PADS sites throughout the years with no known issues.
Director of Economic Development Martin stated the subject property is a good site due to its
accessibility but agreed the road is quite busy. Mr. Pittman state PADS sites only operate in the
winter and further stated they have indicated they are only open to being a site and nothing is
definite. They are just in the exploratory stage and there is a possibility they will not be
accepted as a PADS site. He stated they are also concerned with safety and accessibility.
Director of Economic Development Martin stated at one time he volunteered at a PADS shelter
in Schaumburg and clients were in by 7:00 p.m. and out by 7:00 a.m. Addressing Mr. McGuire,
Or. Martin exchanged information and stated he would provide a conceptual site plan and
staff report to him.

PERMIT TO ALLOW AN ASSEMBLY USE AT SAID PROPERTY
Mayor Low opened the Public Hearing at 7:31 pm. Mayor Low requested comments and
discussion from Council.
Deputy City Administrator Martin informed Council that the Chapel Church currently holds
worship services out of McHenry High School West Campus. The Chapel is presently under
contract to purchase the property located at 414 South Crystal Lake Road, the Koehn Farm.
Following purchase of the property, it is the intent of The Chapel to have a fundraising
campaign, expanding over the next few years, in anticipation of constructing a new worship
facility.
The Koehn Farm is located in unincorporated McHenry County; therefore, annexation to the
City of McHenry is required. If the property is annexed it would be zoned E —Estate District. A
conditional use permit would be required for assembly use. Assembly uses include religious
institutions in addition to any other type of larger gathering place.
According to the site plan, The Chapel is proposing to construct an approximately 25,000
square foot church facility, with a seating capacity of 400 people. Two hundred twenty-five
parking spaces are depicted on the site plan. An assembly use of this type requires .25
spaces/person design capacity of the facility. Accordingly, one hundred parking spaces are
required by ordinance. The site plan also depicts an additional future parking area together
with a couple of playing fields and a detention area. The Chapel intends to raze all existing

buildings on -site, with the exception of the green pole barn, which they are proposing to
relocate from its current location to behind the church building.
Staff believes this is an appropriate location for this type of assembly use and that it will not
adversely impact neighboring properties or public safety and health. It is Staff's belief the use
will not require any additional public services and is compatible with the surrounding area. In
reviewing the criteria for a conditional use permit, Staff's primary concern is for traffic, which
will be generated from the use during the proposed service times.
Applicant has submitted a traffic study and is planning road improvements to minimize any
adverse impact on traffic flow in the area. Deputy City Administrator Martin stated the Planning
and Zoning Commission unanimously recommended approval, by a vote of &0, of a conditional
use permit to allow an assembly use at 414 South Crystal Lake Road, with the condition the site
is developed in substantial conformance with the layout depicted on the Preliminary Site Plan.
Alderman Condon opined she is comfortable that this is a good location. Alderman Glab
inquired about the status of discussions regarding a future service road to connect Knox Drive
to Crystal Lake Road. Deputy City Administrator Martin stated the intent is to extend the south
property line at some point. The proposal includes a driveway, which would extend along the
south property line.
Alderman Glab inquired if the driveway would be a private drive. Mr. Martin stated that it
would depend on how surrounding parcels developed. Alderman Glab stated he would like to
have the wording in the Annexation Agreement revised to assure the $10,000, which is
currently site specific for installation of a future traffic signal at Bull Valley Road and Cunat
Drive, is not lost should something change in the future. Alderman Condon concurred with
Alderman Glab regarding designation of the $10,000. Alderman Condon opined the City of
McHenry should maintain control regarding the use of the funds. Alderman Glab expressed
concerns regarding the speed limit in the area.
Deputy City Administrator Martin indicated that the speed limit reduces from 50 mph to 35
mph on Crystal Lake Road. He suggested the City petition the County of McHenry to have the
speed limit reduced to 45 mph. Alderman Santi inquired whether 100% of the farm property
was being purchased and whether Parcel 2 was included in the purchase. Staff assured
Alderman Santi that Parcel 2 is not included in the purchase. Alderman Santi requested
confirmation regarding 1,000 feet of the corner entrance for a build out of a right hand turn
lane. Deputy City Administrator Martin informed Council that there is both a right hand turn
lane and a left hand turn lane. Mayor Low inquired whether there were any comments from
the audience. There were no comments from the audience. Mayor Low requested a motion to

Responding to an inquiry from Council regarding a traffic light at Bull Valley Road, Deputy City
Administrator Martin stated that there is no specific dedication for a traffic light at Bull Valley
Road. Mayor Low inquired of Mr. Rick Egbert, Executive Pastor of the Chapel, whether there
was any objection regarding revising the wording concerning the contribution of the $10,000.

Dear Planning and Zoning Commission,
Originally, we planned to build a church facility on land at 414 S. Crystal Lake Road. Since that
purchase, the opportunity to obtain the previous Tonerhead building became available. Upon
review of the property, it's estimated we'll save significantly through renovation of an existing
building compared to building from ground up on Crystal Lake Rd. We plan on selling the land
on Crystal Lake Road to help fund renovations on our new property on Route 31,
In December 2014, we officially obtained the property at 1809 S. Route 31 . Our intent is to
renovate the building into a church facility for our congregation and to better serve our local
community. In addition, we are open to the possibility of being a PADS location on a weekly
rotation.
The property is currently zoned in the County of McHenry as I-1. We are in the process of being
annexed into the City of McHenry. Once part of the City of McHenry, we will need a conditional
use for assembly use.
Please accept this Application for a Conditional Use Permit. Please don't hesitate to contact us
iI you have any questions.
Sincerely,
Jeff Pittman

Traffic Impact Study
The Chapel
McHenry, Illinois.
This memorandum summarizes the results of a traffic impact study conducted by Kenig, Lindgren,
O'Hara, Aboona, Inc. (KLOA, Inc.) for a proposed church to be located in McHenry, Illinois.
The site, which is currently occupied by a 52,000 square -foot existing structure used as storage for
Aber The Chapel facilities, is located on the east side of IL 31 just south of Veterans
Parkway. Access to the existing facility is provided via three access drives on IL 31.
As proposed, the existing facility will be redeveloped to accommodate a church with a maximum
seating capacity of 460 people along with meeting and office space. In addition, the existing site
will be modified to provide two-way circulation around the entire building with a total of
approximately 225 parking spaces provided within the site. Access to the site is proposed to be
provided via two of the existing access drives on IL 31 with the removal of the third access drive
currently serving the site.
This study was conducted to assess the impact the proposed church will have on traffic conditions
in the area and to determine if any roadway and access improvements and/or modifications are
necessary to accommodate church -generated traffic. The following sections of this report present
the following.
• Existing roadway conditions
• A description of the proposed church
• Directional distribution of the church -generated traffic
• Vehicle generation for the proposed church
• Future traffic conditions including access to the church
• Traffic analysis for the weekday evening and Sunday morning peak hours
• Recommendations with respect to the adequacy of the church's access system and adjacent
roadway network

Existing Conditions
Site Location
The site, which is currently used as storage for other The Chapel facilities, is located on the west
side of IL 31 just south of Veterans Parkway. A Waste Management facility is located directly
north of the site. Land uses in the area primarily consist of the commercial and industrial
properties to the north, residential homes to the east and vacant, undeveloped land to the south
and west. Figure 1 shows the location of the site with respect to the surrounding roadway
system.
Area Roadways
The principal roadways that provide access to the site are described in the following paragraphs
and shown in Figure 2.
IL 31 is generally anorth-south, two-lane arterial roadway. At its unsignalized intersection with
Veteran's Parkway, IL 31 provides one exclusive left -turn lane and one shared through/right-turn
lane on the souhbound approach and one shared left-turn/through lane and one exclusive right -
turn lane on the northbound approach. IL 31 has a posted speed limit of 55 mph, an average daily
traffic (ADT) volume of 15,400 vehicles and is under the jurisdiction of the Illinois Department
of Transportation (IDOT). IL 31 is designated by IDOT as a Strategic Regional Arterial (SRA)
route.
Veterans Parkway is an east -west, two-lane collector roadway that terminates at its intersection
with IL 31. An access drive to the Waste Management facility is aligned opposite Veterans
Parkway at its intersection with IL 31. At its unsignalized intersection with IL 31, Veterans
Parkway provides one exclusive left -turn and one exclusive right -turn lane under stop sign
control on its westbound approach. Veterans Parkway has a posted speed limit of 25 mph and is
under the jurisdiction of the City of McHenry.
Figure 3 shows the existing roadways characteristics.
Planned Roadway Improvements
IDOT is currently undertaking a Phase 1 study of IL 31 between IL 176 and IL 120. However, no
immediate roadway improvements are currently planned for IL 31 within the vicinity of the site.

Existing Traffic Volumes
In order to determine the traffic volumes on the area roadways, KLOA, Inc. conducted manual
traffic counts at the intersections of IL 31 with Veterans Parkway and the Waste Management
access drive and IL 31 with the three existing access drives serving the site. The traffic counts
were conducted on Thursday, April 30, 2015 from 4:00 P.M. to 6:00 P.M. and Sunday,
May 3, 2015 from 10:00 A.M. to 12:00 A.M. The time periods were selected to coincide with
the weekday peak period of the roadway system and the peak period of the church which occurs
during Sunday mornings. The results of the traffic counts show that the weekday evening
peak hour occurred from 4:00 P.M. to 5:00 P.M. and the Sunday peak hour occurred from
10:45 A.M. to 11:45 P.M. Figure 4 illustrates the peak hour traffic volumes.
Traffic Characteristics of the Proposed Church
In order to properly evaluate future traffic conditions in the surrounding area, it was necessary
to determine the traffic characteristics of the proposed church including the directional
distribution and volumes of traffic that it will generate.
Proposed Development Plan
As proposed, the existing 52,000 square -foot structure will be redeveloped to contain a church
with a maximum capacity of approximately 460 seats as well as various meeting rooms, offices
and storage space. The site is currently used as a storage location for other The Chapel facilities
and, as such, is generating very little traffic. Currently the church has one Sunday service that is
held at McHenry West High School on Sunday mornings with an average attendance of
350 people. Church officials plan to hold two services at the proposed facility, one at 9:00 A.M.
and one at 11:00 A.M. They are projecting that both services will attract approximately
400 members each. During the week, the church will remain open for any visitors with
occasional events for holidays, classes and groups which generally occur during non -commuter
periods.
Based on information provided by church officials, Table 1 presents a breakdown of the typical
weekly activities and functions the church will host.

As can be seen, the church will generate a limited volume of traffic during weekdays,
specifically during the critical morning and evening commuter peak periods when the roadway
system experiences its highest traffic levels. As discussed previously, the peak activity will
occur on Sundays when the Church has one service at 9:00 A.M. and one at 11:00 A.M.
Both services are expected to attract 400 people according to church officials.
Site Access
Access to the church is proposed to be provided the following two existing access drives serving
the site.
• The north access drive is located approximately 150 feet south of Veterans Parkway and
will provide one inbound lane and one outbound lane with outbound movements under
stop sign control.
• The south access drive is located 320 feet south of Veterans Parkway and will provide
one inbound lane and one outbound lane with outbound movements under stop sign
control.
In addition, the existing median on IL 31 should be restriped along the site frontage to provide a
two-way left -turn lane serving the site as well as the Waste Management facility directly to the
north. The church is proposed to provide a total of approximately 225 parking spaces with the
main parking area located in the rear of the site. A two-way circulation road is proposed around
the perimeter of the site. Finally, the existing middle access drive will be eliminated as part of
the proposed church.
Directional Distribution
The directional distribution for the proposed church was estimated based on information received
from church officials regarding the primary residence of church members and on location of the
site relative to the primary roadway system. Figure 5 illustrates the results of the directional
distribution analyses.
Trip Generation Estimates
The proposed church will experience its highest volume of traffic on Sunday mornings when
services occur. During the week, the church is projected to generate a very limited volume of
traffic, particularly during weekday peak Hours. The volume of peak hour trips estimated to be
generated by the proposed church during the peak hours was based on the rates contained in
Trip Generation Manual, 9"' Edition, published by the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE).
The Sunday peak hour represents the hour period between the two services. Table 2 shows the
estimated traffic to be generated by the proposed church.

The estimated peak hour traffic that will be generated by the proposed church was assigned to
the roadway system and to the site access drives in accordance with the previously described
directional distribution. The church generated traffic assignment is shown in Figure 6.
In addition to the traffic generated by the church, the study included the additional traffic to be
generated by the other area growth. Based on projections provided by the Chicago Metropolitan
Agency for Planning (CMAP) the existing volumes were increased by two percent per year for
six years (Year 2021). The year 2021 projected traffic volumes are shown in Figure 7 and
include the existing volumes, the church -generated volumes and the other area growth.

Traffic Analysis
Traffic analyses were performed for the intersections within the study area to determine the
operation of the existing roadway system, evaluate the impact of the proposed church
and determine the ability of the existing street system to accommodate projected traffic demands.
The traffic analyses were performed using Highway Capacity Software (HCS). The ability of an
intersection to accommodate traffic flow is expressed in terms of level of service, which is
assigned a letter grade from A to F based on the average control delay experienced by vehicles
passing through the intersection. Level of Service A is the highest grade (best traffic flow and
least delay), Level of Service E represents saturated or at -capacity conditions and Level of
Service F is the lowest grade (oversaturated conditions, extensive delays). For two-way stop
controlled (TWSC) intersections, levels of service are only calculated for the critical movements
and/or approaches controlled by a stop sign (not for the intersection as a whole).
The Highway Capacity Manual definitions for levels of service and the corresponding control
delay for unsignalized intersections are shown in the Appendix. The results of the capacity
analysis are summarized in Tables 3 and 4 for the existing and year 2021 projected traffic
volumes.

Traffic Evaluation
Based on the results of the capacity analyses, the following is a summary of the findings.
IL 31 with Veterans Parkway and Waste ManagemeritAccess Drive
The results of the capacity analysis show that the Veterans Parkway left -turn movement and the
Waste Management access drive approach are currently operating at poor level of service during
the evening peak hour. With the addition of the church traffic and the other growth in the area,
the approach and left -turn movements are projected to continue to operate at a poor level of
service. The poor level of service is common along stop sign controlled approaches that intersect
major arterials such as IL 31. As a result, the traffic along the approach and left -turn movement
can experience some additional delay waiting to access the IL 31 traffic stream during the
evening peak period. However, given the low volume of traffic to be generated by the church
during the evening peak hour, the church will have a very limited impact on the operation of the
intersection. It is important to note that all of the movements and approaches are projected to
operate at a good level of service during the Sunday peak hour.
Proposed Access System
Access to the church is proposed to be provided the following two existing access drives serving
the site.
• The north access drive is located approximately I50 feet south of Veterans Parkway and
will provide one inbound lane and one outbound lane with outbound movements under
stop sign control.
• The south access drive is located 320 feet south of Veterans Parkway and will provide
one inbound lane and one outbound lane with outbound movements under stop sign
control.
In addition, the existing median on IL 31 _should be restriped along the site frontage to provide a
two-way left -turn lane serving a as well as the Waste Management facility directly to the
north. The results of the capacity analyses show that both access drives are projected to operate
at acceptable level of service during both the weekday evening and Sunday morning peak
periods.
Given the proximity of the north access drive to the Veterans Parkway intersection, this access
drive should be monitored to ensure it will provide efficient and orderly access. If problems
occur at the access drive and/or if the IL 31Neterans Parkway intersection is signalized in the
future, it may be necessary to prohibit left -turn movements to and from this access drive.
It should be noted that both access drives are projected to continue to operate at a good level of
service if the left -turn movements are prohibited.
Conclusion
Based on the preceding analyses and recommendations, the following conclusions have been
made.
• The proposed church is anticipated to have two services on Sunday at 9:00 A.M. and
11:00 A.M. During the week the church will have minimal activities with occasional
events for holidays, group meeting and activities.
• The church is expected to primarily generate traffic during Sunday mornings and will
generate limited, if any, traffic during weekdays especially during the critical morning
and evening commuter peak hours.
• The results of the capacity analyses have shown that the existing roadway system has
sufficient reserve capacity to accommodate the traffic to be generated by the church.
• Access to the proposed church will be provided via two existing access drives serving the
site. The third access drive will be closed. It is recommended that the existing median be
restriped along the site frontage to provide a two-way left -turn lane serving the site and
Waste Management access drive.
• Given the proximity of the north access drive to the Veterans Parkway intersection, this
access drive should be monitored to ensure it will provide efficient and orderly access.
If problems occur at the access and/or if the IL 31/Veterans Parkway intersection is
signalized in the future, it may be necessary to prohibit left -turn movements to and from
this access drive. It should be noted that both access drives are projected to continue to
operate at a good level of service if the left -turn movements are prohibited.

Appropriation List
BACKGROUND: The Appropriation Ordinance provides the legal authority under state statute to
allocate funds for specific spending activities. The ordinance, which must be adopted no later
than the end of the first quarter of the new fiscal year, also establishes the municipality's legal
spending limit for the fiscal year.
ANALYSIS: Municipalities are required to conduct a public hearing before adoption of the
ordinance. State statute also requires municipalities to publish notice of the public hearing and
the location where the ordinance is to be available for review. This notice was published in the
Northwest Herald on July 6, 2015. A certified copy of the Appropriation Ordinance must be
filed with the County Clerk within thirty (30) days of its adoption.
The Appropriation Ordinance reflects anticipated expenditure levels found in the annual
operating budget. Budget amendments approved by the City Council during the year and other
adjustments necessitated by unforeseen expenditures will be included in the Supplemental
Appropriation Ordinance.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the following: 1) Conduct the public hearing for the
2015/16 Appropriation Ordinance; and 2) Upon closing of the public hearing, approve the
2015/16 Appropriation Ordinance in the amount of $44,638,069.

RE: 14t" Annual Run/Walk-a-Thon for Literacy
ATT: Map
The McHenry Elementary Education Foundation will host the 14th Annual Run/Walk-a-Thon for Literacy
on September 13th. The Foundation is requesting the temporary closure of a portion of Glenbrook Trail
and Dartmoor Drive and use of city support services. Staging, registration and parking for the event will
take place at Riverwood School. Registration will begin at 7:00 AM and the Run/Walk will begin at 8:00
AM.
Attached is a map depicting the route, which will necessitate the complete closure of a small portion of
Glenbrook Trail from the exit drive of Riverwood School to Cross Trail and Dartmoor Drive at Oakton
Street for approximately 15 minutes as runners complete that portion of the course. The district is
requesting to host a "Color Run" this year, with three stations where participants will have colored -
powder thrown at them. The colored -powder that will be used is certified non -toxic and free of heavy
metals. The bright colors are a combination of cornstarch, baking soda, and FD&C dyes. Two of the
stations will be setup on school property and one is proposed for Jaycees Park.
The Foundation will provide volunteer staff to manage the race. Police Department staff will manage the
event utilizing barricades and on duty personnel. Should overtime officers need to be assigned the
Foundation will be charged the current rate. The only other cost that will be incurred for city services is
the time to disperse and collect the barricades and assistance with management of the race course, for
which the Foundation has agreed to pay.
If Council concurs, then it is recommended to approve the temporary closure of a portion of
Glenbrook Trail and Dartmoor Drive and use of city support services as presented for the 14th
Annual 5K Run/Walk-a-Thon for Literacy sponsored by the McHenry Elementary Education
Foundation.

CALL TO ORDER THE PUBLIC HEARING REGARDING A PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO THE
ANNEXATION AGREEMENT FOR THE PRESERVES AT BOONE CREEK
Mayor Low opened the Public Hearing regarding a proposed amendment to the
Annexation Agreement for the Preserves at Boone Creek at 7:05 pm.
City Administrator Morefield reported that on April 11, 2005, the City Council approved
execution of an Annexation Agreement for subdivision and development of approximately 300
acres of property north of Bull Valley Road and east and west of Curran Road. The Agreement
included approval of a concept plan for the development of 414 single-family homes, 136
townhome dwelling units and commercial property at the intersection of Bull Valley and Curran
Roads. The development was annexed and zoned, however the project did not move forward
due to the downturn in the economy.
Because of increasing traffic and safety concerns at the intersection of Curran Road and
Bull Valley Road, the completion of roadway improvements to the intersection has become an
important issue to address. The City of McHenry was awarded Surface Transportation Program
(STP) funding through the McHenry County Council of Mayors to complete the improvements
to the intersection for installation of a traffic signal; corresponding roadway widening; and
construction of turn lanes at Curran Road and Bull Valley Road. However, additional right-of-
way along Curran and Bull Valley Roads is necessary to complete the project.
Mr. Morefield reported property owner Roger Gerstad representing Gerstad Builders,
has agreed to dedicate the right-of-way required to complete the project upon approval of an
amendment to extend the terms of the agreement an additional 10-years to 2035. Mr. Gerstad
was present at the meeting.
City Administrator Morefield informed Council that atwo-thirds majority (6 votes from
Council) is required, including Mayor Low's vote, is required for approval.
Mayor Low asked for comments from the Public in attendance and there were none.
Mayor Low asked for comments from Council:
Alderman Glab expressed concern regarding the $400,000 contribution, as written in
the original Annexation Agreement. He opined costs have increased since the agreement was
approveA and suggested the amount of contribution be increased. City Administrator Morefield
responded that staff is cognizant of the increase in expenses however; the city is being offered
additional property by Mr. Gerstad.
Alderman Glab expressed concern about references made in the original agreement
regarding the McHenry Bypass. He commented that he is doubtful the McHenry Bypass will
Regular Meeting
Page 3
June 15, 2015
come to fruition and requested all references to the McHenry Bypass be removed from the
document.
Alderman Schaefer concurred with Alderman Glab regarding the amount of
contribution. And probable increased costs for the project.
City Administrator Morefield reiterated to Council that the city is not purchasing the
property for the right-of-way.
Motion by Condon, second by Wimmer, to close the Public Hearing regarding a
proposed amendment to the Annexation Agreement for the Preserves at Boone Creek at 7:22
pm.
Voting Aye: Santi, Glab, Schaefer, Curry, Wimmer, Condon.

The Public Hearing was closed at 7:22 pm.
MOTION TO APPROVE AN ORDINANCE AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR AND THE CITY CLERK'S
EXECUTION OF THE FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE ANNEXATION AGREEMENT FOR THE
PRESERVES OF BOONE CREEK
Mayor Low called for a motion the approve the Ordinance authorizing the Mayor and
the City Clerk's execution of the First Amendment to the Preserves of Boone Creek Annexation
Agreement between the City of McHenry, First Midwest Bank Trust No. 4562, First Midwest
Trust No. 13375 and Gerstad Builders.
Alderman Glab stated he is unable to support the Amendment to the Annexation
Agreement. Alderman Schaefer concurred with Alderman Glab, citing it has been 10-years since
the original Annexation Agreement stating the amount of contribution concerned him.
Mayor Low informed Council that Mr. Gerstad has demonstrated his company's
committed to the development of the property. She emphasized that the City of McHenry
needs the right-of-way.
Responding to an inquiry from Council, Director of Public Works Schmitt informed
Council the STP funding has been scheduled, the City of McHenry needs the right-of-way and
should the right-of-way not be obtained, it is likely that the funding for the project will be lost
to the City.

MOTION
TO AUTHORIZE
THE
MAYOR'S EXECUTION
OF
AN
INTERGOVERNMENTAL
AGREEMENT
BETWEEN THE
CITY
OF MCHENRY AND MCHENRY
TOWNSHIP FIRE PROTECTION
DISTRICT FOR DISPATCH SERVICES
City Administrator Morefield reiterated to Council that currently the City of McHenry
owns and operates a dispatch center (Center) that provides services to McHenry Police;
Johnsburg Police; McCullom Lake Police; McHenry Township Fire Protection District; Marengo
Fire; Marengo Rescue; and Union Fire.
Regular Meeting
Page 5
June 15, 2015
The Center is a full -service, 24/7 Center that currently operates with nine full time
dispatchers and a pool of part time dispatchers to maintain two working dispatch positions at
all times. All are trained in police dispatching, fire/EMS dispatching, and call -taking. The
workload is currently shared by all equally.
Prior to 2009, the Center operated with 10 full time dispatchers, which was reduced by
attrition in an effort to reduce the financial burden of the City in a difficult economic client.
Since 2009, the Center has seen a steady growth of workload in the form of 911 calls; non -
emergency calls; implementation of emergency medical dispatch (EMD) protocols; and
advancement in the field's overalls.
City Administrator Morefield stated that since 2011, the McHenry Police Department
has been evaluating the Center to ensure stability and potential growth. Between 2013 and
M15, the McHenry Police Department and the McHenry Township Fire Protection District
(MTFPD) actively met as a team to evaluate the needs of the McHenry area community. During
the evaluation process McHenry Police Chief Jones and MTFPD Fire Chief Huemann identified
service to the community and safety and fiscal responsibilities as key points in developing a
plan for the future and following the evaluation they agreed that a partnership between the
two governmental agencies would benefit the McHenry community and surrounding areas and
would create a stable environment for emergency dispatch services. City Administrator
Morefield reported the plan for the partnership was presented to Council on June 1, 2015 and
the MTFPD Board on June 2, 2015.
The first phase of the partnership is the implementation of an Intergovernmental
Agreement between the City of McHenry and the MTFPD. In the Agreement, the MTFPD agrees
to pay an annual fee of $185,000 to the City of McHenry, with an option of reducing the fee as
the City expands and provides services to new agencies. The City, in turn, agrees to:
• Hire three (3) additional dispatchers, bringing the minimum full time staffing level to
twelve (12) dispatchers;
• Create a designated fire dispatch seat; and
• Allow the MTFPD to provide input on the expansion and growth of the physical
centers and develop an administrative oversight structure that would allow for
equal decision making by McHenry Police and the MTFPD regarding policy
development; development of best operational practices; and hiring new center
employees
City Administrator Morefield stated that it is anticipated that the Intergovernmental
Agreement will be considered by the McHenry Township Fire Protection District Board at their
meeting on June 18, 2015.

office, retail and commercial space, known as the REMAX Plaza Shopping Center. The property
is currently zoned G5 Highway Commercial District and is surrounded by commercial and
service uses to the north and east, multi -family residential to the west, north and south, and
vacant land to the south.
Staff believes the proposed tavern use with live entertainment is an appropriate land
use for the subject property. The operator of the proposed tavern currently operates a
successful business similar to the one being proposed tonight in Belvidere, Illinois. The tavern
proposed at REMAX Plaza will include craft beer brands on tap and no food would be prepared
on site. The applicant is also requesting permission to occasionally host light entertainment
such as music and intends to install video gaming terminals.
REMAX Plaza currently has 67 parking spaces, including three handicapped accessible
spaces. The property is landlocked and unable to expand their parking. REMAX Plaza was
constructed 29 years ago.
The Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously recommended approval of a
Conditional Use Permit to allow a tavern with live entertainment at 4005 Kane Avenue, Unit L,
and approval of a 55 space parking variance for REMAX Plaza Shopping Center, with the
condition that there be no on -site food preparation at 4005 Kane Avenue, Unit L, unless the
Conditional Use Permit is amended by the City Council
City Attorney McArdle stated that Item No. 12 is contingent upon approval of Item No.
11, as the issuance of a liquor license would be unnecessary without the Conditional Use.
A brief discussion ensued. Alderman Wimmer asked if the applicant would be willing to
forego video gaming for a period of one year to see if the location could support a tavern. Mr.

Kevin Olson representing the owner stated video gaming facilitates much revenue for the
establishment.
Motion by Condon, second by Wimmer, to approve an Ordinance allowing a tavern with
live entertainment at 4005 Kane Avenue, Unit L; and an Ordinance granting a 55 space parking
variance for REMAX Plaza Shopping Center, with the condition there be no onsite food
preparation at 4005 Kane Avenue, Unit L.
Mayor Low called for discussion and due to concerns expressed by Council, Director of
Economic Development Martin suggested amending the Ordinance to specify only "unamplified
music" be permitted excluding bands.
Mr. Kevin Olson, representing the applicant informed Council they are willing to
withdraw the request for live entertainment. City Attorney McArdle informed Mr. Olson that
he could approach Council at a later date should entertainment be desired.
Alderman Condon amended the Motion and seconded by Alderman Wimmer to approve an
Ordinance allowing a tavern without live entertainment at 4005 Kane Avenue, Unit L; and an
Ordinance granting a 55 space parking variance for REMAX Plaza Shopping Center with the
condition there be no onsite food preparation at 4005 Kane Avenue, Unit L.

APPROVAL OF A BUDGET AMENDMENT, TRANSFERRING $192,321.47 FROM THE GENERAL
FUND RESERVES TO THE CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS FUND, FOR THE MCCULLOM LAKE ROAD
IMPROVEMENT PROJECT
City Administrator Morefield informed the Council that the McHenry County Council of
Mayors awarded up to a maximum of $1,060,900 of Surface Transportation Program (STP)
funds for McCullom Lake Road Improvements. STP funding will pay for up to 80% of the total
cost of construction and Phases III engineering, with a local match requirement of 20%. City
Administrator Morefield noted the City was responsible for 100% of the cost of Phase I and II
engineering.
The Council previously approved a Professional Services Agreement with HR Green, Inc.,
for Phase III engineering, in an amount not to exceed $129,826.66. In addition, the Public
Highway At -Grade Crossing Improvement Agreement between Union Pacific Railroad and the
City of McHenry approved by Council on February 2, 2015, calls for the City to reimburse the
railroad for upgrades to the track crossing estimated at $75,000 (20% of the City's portion is
$15,000). The approved 2015/2016 Capital Improvement Program includes $242,000 for the
McCullom Lake Road Improvements Project with revenues from the Motor Fuel Tax Fund.
City Administrator Morefield stated the total cost of the Project is $1,495,221.47, which
includes Phase III engineering, construction and upgrades to the track crossing. The maximum
STP funding for the Project is $1,060,000, leaving the total outstanding amount of $434,321.47.
The Fiscal Year 2015/2016 CIP includes $242,000 of MFT funding for the Project, which reduces
the outstanding balance to $192,321.47. Currently, there is insufficient funding available
through the MFT program to fund the outstanding balance and be prepared to fund other MFT
projects. The choice for the City is to utilize General Fund Reserves for the $192,323.47. City
Administrator Morefield noted that rebidding the Project would likely not result in a lower bid
amount; would delay the Project beyond this improvement year; and may result in the loss of
the $1,060,900 in STP funds that are approved in this program year. Also, there are projects in
other communities ready for funding in the STP program.
General Fund Reserves, as of May 1, 2015, are $8,672,916. Of that amount, $3,733,992
represents 20% of the FY 2015/2016 budgeted General Fund Expenditures amount of
$18,669,959 (without Capital Projects) and, pursuant to the City's policy, represents the
minimum level of General Fund Reserves to be maintained. Therefore, there is approximately
Regular Meeting
Page 9
June 15, 2015
$4,938,924 in General Fund Reserves available to fund the $192,321.47 required for the
McCullom Lake Road Project.
MCCUIIom Lake Road is an important entranceway to the City of McHenry. It not only
serves the commercial area along the Route 31/Richmond Road corridor, but also Petersen
Farm and Petersen Park. As Council is aware, the current condition is extremely poor and
McCullom Lake Road is one of the top streets the Staff has received resident and non-resident
concerns about during the year. Delaying or choosing not to move forward with the McCollum
Lake Road Project would result in continued and more severe degradation of the roadway.
Motion by Schaefer, seconded by Wimmer, approving a budget amendment, in the
amount of $192,321.47, from the General Fund Reserves to the Capital Improvement Fund, for
the McCullom Lake Road Improvements Project, as presented.

ENGINEERING DESIGN BIDDING AND CONSTRUCTION OBSERVATION FOR THE FIELDSTONE
LIFT STATION REHABILITATION PROJECT AND AUTHORIZATION TO ADVERTISE FOR
COMPETITIVE BIDS FOR THE PROJECT.
City Administrator Morefield stated the approved 2015/2016 Capital Improvement
Program includes $330,000 for the design/observation engineering and construction of the
Fieldstone Lift Station Rehabilitation Project, with funding from Water/Sewer revenues and
$100,000 from the Legend Lakes Surety Bond. HR Green, Inc. has submitted a Professional
Services Agreement for design engineering and construction observation. The scope of work
includes preparation of detailed contract plans, cost estimates, assistance in bid tabulation, bid
aware recommendation, field inspections, and payment recommendations. The engineering
services fee is an amount not to exceed $25,974.00.
Motion by Santi, seconded by Wimmer, approving a Professional Services Agreement
with HR Green, Inc., for an amount not to exceed $25,974.00 for engineering design, bidding
and construction observation and authorization to publicly bid the Fieldstone Life Station

BACKGROUND: At the July 7, 2015 meeting the City Council considered a sign variance for the
property at 4005 Kane Avenue Unit L, Lucky Poker, to allow a second wall sign on the south
elevation of the ReMax Plaza Shopping Center. The size of the sign is 30.27 square feet (see

attached sign elevation) and mirrors the sign proposed on the north elevation (see attached
sign elevation).
At the meeting the Council discussed, on a more holistic level, sign variances on rear elevations
of buildings which were not outlots within shopping centers. Additionally, if sign variances
were granted in such instances and there were multiple tenants should the signs have a
consistent appearance as it pertains to size, style and color. The Council tabled the variance
request submitted for 4005 Kane Avenue Unit L to the July 20, 2015 meeting to provide staff an
opportunity to work with Jim Schaid, owner of ReMax Plaza and present a revised proposal
incorporating these discussion points to the City Council for consideration.
Since the July 7 meeting staff has discussed the concerns of the Council with Jim Schaid, who
submitted a letter (attached) requesting a total of four sign variances to allow a second wall
sign for 4005 Kane Avenue (Unit P-Subway, Unit M-Springleaf Financial, Unit L-Lucky Poker and
Unit O-B and B Jewelry and Pawn). Additionally, he submitted an exhibit depicting the
dimensions of the Subway sign on the south elevation. The Subway sign on the south elevation
is approximately 18 square feet (8.9' feet by 2'), 14.1' above grade and consists of white plastic
letters mounted to the wall.
Each of the aforementioned units within ReMax Plaza has approximately 24-25 feet of tenant
frontage on the north elevation therefore they are permitted to erect a 36 square -foot sign on
the north elevation. For outlot buildings signs on the rear elevations must be % the total
square -footage of the sign on the front elevation or in this case 18 square feet, which is the size
of the Subway sign on the south elevation. However corner units within shopping centers, such
as Subway, are permitted two wall signs. The total square footage cannot exceed 1.5 times the
business frontage or 36 square feet. In the case of Subway, a variance to allow an additional 18
square -foot sign is required.

Mr. Schaid has suggested four sign variances be granted to permit an additional wall sign for
Units O, L, M and P. He is proposing each sign consist of block channel letters mounted on a
raceway or directly onto the wall (as in the case of Subway) and uppercase letters not exceed
two feet in height and lowercase letters not exceed 1.5 feet in height and all sign must be one
color. These criteria essentially mirror the signs which were approved on the rear elevation of
the businesses in the North Gate West Shopping Center on North Richmond Road and are
consistent with the City's sign ordinance for multi-user outlot buildings in terms of size. Staff
would also add no logos be permitted on the rear elevation (consistent with North Gate West)
A ReMax Plaza and signs may be backlit. Staff believes this is a fair compromise and does not
think it is precedent -setting. ReMax Plaza is surrounded by three roadways and is very unique
in this regard, particularly in terms of shopping centers within the City, and staff believes it's in
the City's best interest to do whatever is reasonable and practical to ensure the success of
businesses.

ANALYIS: In the case of Lucky Poker, which has 25 feet of tenant frontage, they would be
permitted to have a rear wall sign, in accordance with the criteria previously outlined, no
greater than 19 square feet. Therefore, the letters would have to be reduced in size, color of
the letters changed to white and the logo would not be permitted on the south elevation.
At the July 7 City Council meeting Lucky Poker proposed a 30.27 square foot sign with red
letters and a logo.
If the City Council concurs it is recommended that sign variances for 4005 Kane Avenue Units
O, M and L be permitted. Each sign must consist of block channel letters mounted on a
raceway; uppercase letters cannot exceed two feet in heights lowercase letters cannot exceed
1.5 feet in height; signs for all units must be consistent with the color of the current Subway
sign (white); can be backlit; must be mounted directly onto the rear wall or alternatively onto
a raceway and no logos are permitted.
Additionally, if the City Council concurs it's recommended that a sign variance be granted to
4005 Kane Avenue Unit P (currently Subway) consistent with the aforementioned conditions
for 4005 Kane Avenue (Units Q. M and L).

City Council Meeting Minutes
OCTOBER 13, 2003
SIGN VARIANCE - NORTHGATE WEST COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT
In attendance were Attorney Sam Diamond, Attorney Danielle Diamond; Curt Yost,
General Manager for the developer of the project; and Developer Jim Schaid.
In response to an inquiry from Alderman Glab, Director of Community Development
Napolitano stated the free-standing sign would be similar to the one located in front of the
Meijer/Home Depot Shopping Center. The sign would be about the same size and height as that
sign. Alderman Glab stated Council has previously denied requests to locate wall signs on the
rear fagade of commercial buildings. He cited the rejected wall sign variances for Liberty Square
Shopping Center at the intersection of Route 31 and Shamrock Lane. Alderman Glab expressed
his concern with the abundance of sign variances and reduction in external brick on various
commercial structures including sign standards.
Alderman Murgatroyd stated he had no objection to the variance for the free-standing
sign. However, he had some concerns regarding the requested additional wall signs. He noted it
was redundant to vary both the free-standing signs and the additional wall signs. He opined he
would prefer to vary solely the free-standing sign and omit the additional wall signs. Alderman
Wimmer stated his concurrence with Alderman Murgatroyd.
Alderman Peterson opined two wall signs per business should be permitted for ease of
idencation. Alderman Bolger concurred with Alderman Peterson.
Mr. Diamond noted although North Gate West Development is comprised of 23 acres,
only 9 acres are contained outside of the wetlands and are developable. The proposed second
monument sign would be for the entire project. Home State Bank would occupy the corner lot
and would also have a monument sign identifying its location.
Mr. Schaid noted the property restrictions due to the wetlands. Working with the
environment and FAP 420 right-of-way dedication causes development hardship resulting in the
need for additional signage for building tenants. He noted a 240' distance from Route 31
centerline to the property line of the tenant building. Adding the building setback, it makes it
difficult to entice building tenants to utilize the space. Rear fagade signage is critical to leasing
the tenant spaces.

Alderman Glab suggested the building front should face Route 31, removing the need
for rear fagade sign variances. Mayor Low stated her support of both the monument sign
variance and the rear fagade wall sign variances.
Motion by Peterson, seconded by Bolger, to approve the requested sign variances to
North Gate West as follows:
• To permit two free-standing development entrance signs; and
• To permit a second wall sign for each tenant in the proposed commercial building on
Lots &20 on Schaid Court, with a maximum 2' high capital letters, 1.5' high small letters.a
all letters to be blocked, all one color, and uniform along the rear of the building; no
logos to be included.
Voting Aye: Bolger, Low, Wimmer, Peterson.

City Council Meeting Minutes,
J U N E 16, 2008
REQUEST FOR SIGN VARIANCES -DIAMOND PLAZA IN NORTHGATE WEST SUBDIVISION
In attendance were Architect Walter Hainsfurther and Applicant/Developer Deano Vass.
Deputy City Administrator Martin stated a request was received from the Applicant for
additional signage in the Diamond Plaza complex located in Northgate West Subdivision. The
request included two additional free-standing signs which would exceed the allowable height
and area permitted, as well as four additional wall signs.
Deputy City Administrator Martin noted Staff has reviewed the request and has made
the following recommendation:
1) to approve the request for three additional wall signs on the rear of the building
(1/business) with the following conditions:
a) each additional wall sign on the rear building fagade shall have maximum 2' high
capital letters, 1.5' high lower case letters;
b) all letters shall be blocked, one color, and uniform along the rear of the building;
c) no logos shall be permitted on the rear of the building;
2) to approve the request for one additional free-standing sign on the subject property
subject to the condition that the sign shall not exceed six feet in height and 30 square
feet in area;
3) to deny the request for sign height and area variances for the allowed additional free-
standing sign.
4) to deny the request for an additional corner unit wall sign on the north elevation;
5) to deny the request for a second free-standing sign on the subject property.
Deputy City Administrator Martin noted the signs recommended for approval are
consistent with previous sign variances granted for the Northgate West Subdivision.
Motion by Condon, seconded by Schaefer, to accept Staffs recommendation to approve
one free-standing sign and three additional wall signs on the rear of the building located at
Diamond Plaza, subject to the conditions specified by Staff.

Discussion on the Motion
Alderman Condon stated she could support the variance for the rear facade signs
provided the signs are consistent with the limitations previously granted in this development.
She concurred with Staff's recommendation.
Alderman Santi concurred with Alderman Condon.
Alderman Glab recalled previous discussion regarding sign variances being proposed for
the Northgate West Development and agreed with Staffs recommendation before Council this
evening.
In response to Alderman Schaefer's inquiry, Deputy City Administrator Martin stated
any signs required for a drive -up establishment in the development, including a directional sign,
would be allowed as part of the conditional use permit.
Alderman Murgatroyd opined the second monument sign granted the Northgate West
Development (following the one allowed by Home State Bank) was to serve the entire
development. He expressed concern that every project that comes before Council in this
subdivision is seeking its own free-standing sign. He suggested the newer developments piggy-
back their signage on the development's existing monument sign located at Route 31 and
Diamond Drive. Alderman Murgatroyd indicated he has a problem with the number of signs and
sign variances being requested by projects in this development.
Mr. Hainsfurther stated it was the applicant's understanding that because the property
fronts on two streets, Diamond Drive and Route 31, two free-standing signs should be
permitted on the subject premises. He also noted all plans previously submitted to the City,
including the site plan, showed two monument signs. The applicant assumed both signs would
be allowed. Mr. Hainsfurther also noted the applicant requested of the subdivision owners that
signage be added to the Route 31 free-standing development sign. The applicant was advised
by the Northgate West development owners to request sign variances from the City to allow
free-standing signs on their property. Mr. Hainsfurther noted the tenants need two free-
standing signs on the subject property.
City Administrator Maxeiner stated the City appreciates the applicant's situation.
However, the City has no control over what information was relayed to the applicant by the
property owner during the sale of the property.

Alderman Murgatroyd stated he thought the Route 31 monument sign was erected for
the benefit of the entire Northgate West Development. He noted in 2003 the subdivision
property owners were advised that only one monument sign would be permitted for the entire
development except for the Home State Bank free-standing sign.
City Attorney McArdle inquired if the applicant had researched the possibility of using a
portion of the subdivision monument sign located at Diamond Drive and Route 31, Mr. Vass
indicated he had not looked into this possibility. Mr. Vass reiterated two monument signs were
shown on his project's site plan which was previously approved by the City. He therefore
believed he should be entitled to install both monument signs on his property.
City Administrator Maxeiner inquired if the tenants were able to utilize a portion of the
existing subdivision sign, in conjunction with one free-standing sign on their development,
would that satisfy the advertising needs of the project? Mr. Vass responded he needs both
monument signs on his property. City Administrator Maxeiner stated in the eyes of the Council
consistency within the development must be maintained. City Administrator Maxeiner noted
the signs for this development were the subject of much City Council discussion and agreement
in 2003 when this subdivision was first presented to the City.
At Mayor Low's encouragement, the motion and second were withdrawn, and the
matter was tabled until a future Council meeting when the issues at hand have been resolved.

City Council Meeting Minutes
AUGUST 4, 2008
REQUEST FOR SIGN VARIANCES FOR DIAMOND PLAZA
In attendance was Charles Schwartz, representing the applicant for sign variances for
Diamond Plaza located in Northgate West Development.
Deputy City Administrator Martin stated as Council will recall on June 16, 2008, Council
considered a request for sign variances for Diamond Plaza Shopping Center. At that time the
applicant requested the following:
1) four additional wall signs on the rear and north side of the building;
2) two additional freestanding signs with height and total area square footage variances.
Due to confusion regarding prior sign restrictions imposed by Council on this
development, no action was taken by Council. The applicant was directed to work with Staff to
resolve and clarify the variation requests and return to Council with a revised variance request.
Deputy City Administrator Martin noted Staff has met with the applicant. At this time
the following variances are being requested by the applicant.
1) Variance to allow three additional wall signs (two on the rear fagade and one on the
north building elevation for the corner unit);
2) Variance to allow one freestanding sign on the subject property;
3) Variances as to allowable height and area for the proposed freestanding sign.
Deputy City Administrator Martin stated Staff has reviewed the request and
recommends the following:
1) to approve the request for two additional wall signs on the rear building fagade with the
conditions that each additional wall sign on the rear fagade has a maximum of 2' high
upper case letters, 1.5' high lower case letters, all to be blocked in style, one color and
uniform along the rear of the building, with no logos permitted;
2) to approve the request for an additional corner unit wall sign on the north fagade, size
and style in accordance with the attachment provided with the permit application;
3) to approve the request for an additional freestanding sign at the southeast corner of the
subject property, allowing height and area variances as requested.
Alderman Murgatroyd stated he understands the need for the monument sign and the

corner unit sign; however, since no parking exists at the rear of the bung, he could not
understand why signage would be needed on the rear fagade. Deputy City Administrator Martin
responded the request was made to provide additional signage for the tenants.
Alderman Santi inquired if the color of the signage would coordinate with the signage of
each of the tenant's corporate colors. Deputy City Administrator Martin responded Staff is
recommending that the sign colors be uniform.
Alderman Glab opined it is difficult to support changes to signage in shopping centers.
He noted the parameters for shopping center signs were discussed at great length prior to the
adoption of the current sign ordinance, particularly with regard to all of the previous variances
granted to this development. Deputy City Administrator Martin noted the City is attempting to
be equitable and cooperate with the Diamond Plaza owner regarding signage for the
development. He further stated the conformity of the building makes signage for the
development unique.
Motion by Murgatroyd, seconded by Santi, to accept Staffs recommendation to
1) approve the request for two additional wall signs on the rear building fagade with the
conditions that each additional wall sign on the rear fagade has a maximum of 2' high
upper case letters, 1.5' high lower case letters, all to be blocked in style, one color and
uniform along the rear of the building, with no logos permitted;
2) approve the request for an additional corner unit wall sign on the north fagade, size and
style in accordance with the attachment provided with the permit application;
3) approve the request for an additional freestanding sign at the southeast corner of the
subject property, allowing height and area variances as requested.

building sets on consists of nine acres and contains 521 parking spaces.
Big R is seeking a use variance to allow: an open sales lot; outdoor storage and bulk fuel storage
and sales ("Accessory Uses") in conjunction with their retail business ("Principal Use"). A use
variance is required because outdoor sales and display and bulk fuel sales are not permitted uses
in the C-3 zoning district however these uses are commonly associated with this type of business.
Home Depot maintains outdoor storage and display areas and is located on North Richmond Road.
Home Depot is zoned C-5 however did receive a conditional use permit to allow outdoor sales and
storage. An open sales lot is defined as follows in the zoning ordinance:
OPEN SALES LOT: Open land that is used or occupied for the purpose of buying and selling
merchandise, passenger cars, trucks, motor scooters, motorcycles, boats, nursery plants or

supplies, or monuments, or for the storing of same prior to sale thereupon, and that is provided
with a permanent, durable, and dustless surface and is drained to dispose of all surface water.
Big R's request includes a 28' X 270' (7,560 square -foot) storage and merchandise pick-up area on
the north side of the building and depicted on the site plan. It's within this area they are
proposing to store bulk kerosene and propane. They are also seeking approval for a 65' X 150'
(9,750 square feet) outdoor sales area for seasonal merchandise along the north property line and
immediately south of the driveway entrance to the site off of McCullom Lake Road, as well as an
outdoor sales area west of the former Target Store consisting of 13,500 square feet (90' X 150').
Lastly Big R would like to utilize the area along the private sidewalk immediately west and adjacent
to the building (see attached photographs for locations) to display merchandise.
The proposed outdoor storage and merchandise pick-up area on the north side ofthe building will
be utilized for bulk kerosene and propane sales and storage as well as for farm and agri-business
items including: fencing and related fence products, livestock water tank, drain tile, etc. It's within
this area customers could look at merchandise and back into the area for loading and pick-up of
merchandise. The area will be paved. The State Fire Marshall regulates bulkfuel storage, which is
required to be a minimum of 25 feet from the building.
Any above -ground bulk fuel storage tank must be constructed and inspected by the State Fire
Marshall prior to the tank being filled. Staff is recommending bollards be placed adjacent to the
bulk fuel storage tanks. Additionally, this area will be enclosed by a black chain link fence. The
former Sears/K-Mart has a similar area immediately to the north of the subject property on the
north side of McCullom Lake Road.
ANALYSIS: Along the north side of the building and south of McCullom Lake Road is a twenty -foot
easement which extends from the intersection of McCullom Lake Road and Richmond Road east
along the northern property line to the east of the building and contains water and sewer mains.
The proposed outdoor storage area is located outside of the twenty -foot easement. There is
approximately 58.8' from the south side of the existing sidewalk along McCullom Lake Road to the
north side of the building on the subject property. There is also a watermain which runs parallel to
the former Target building within the easternmost driveway aisle, within a ten -foot dedicated
easement, as depicted on the McCullom Place II Final Plat of Subdivision.
A large part of Big R's business is the sale of seasonal merchandise as well as outside sales
generally. There are three areas Big R is proposing to conduct their outdoor sales: a 9,750 square -
foot area along the north property line; a 13,500 square -foot space in the parking lot west of the
building and on the sidewalk immediately west and adjacent to the building. The two outdoor

sales areas within the parking lot will encompass 82 parking spaces. The parking requirement for
Big R is 4 spaces/1,000 sf. of net floor area or 85% of gross so Big R is required to maintain 324
spaces. Subtracting the 82 spaces for the outdoor sales areas will still leave an excess of 115
parking spaces. The sidewalk abutting the building to the west ranges in width up to a maximum
of 25 feet.
As previously stated other businesses along this corridor have or former businesses had similar
outdoor display and storage areas; therefore the proposed uses at 1860 N Richmond Road are
consistent with and will not alter the character of the area. The former Sears/K-Mart had an
outdoor storage and display areas the existing Sears Appliance, located within McHenry Plaza
displays items within the parking area, as well as on the sidewalk adjacent to the building. Further,
the former Wal-Mart at 2019 N Richmond Road had a large outdoor garden area on the west side
of their building and Home Depot, located two blocks to the north of the subject property,
currently has outdoor display areas to the east of their building, a permanent fenced -in
garden/outdoor display and sales area south of their building and they also store trucks and
trailers in their parking area which are continually rented and dropped -off.
Ace Hardware on Crystal Lake Road is zoned C-3 and received a conditional use permit for similar
requests which Big R is seeking approval. Ace Hardware has a larger outdoor display area within
their parking lot, as well as on the sidewalk east of their building, a fenced -in area adjacent to their
building and store/sell bulk propane in a large tank to the southeast of their current building.
Staff believes the requests Big R is seeking are reasonable, consistent with the zoning ordinance,
comprehensive plan, will not adversely impact adjacent properties.
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION: The Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously
recommended approval of a use variance to allow an open sales lot; outdoor storage and bulkfuel
storage at 1860 N Richmond Road subject to the following conditions:

Commission to order at 7:30 p.m. In attendance were the following: Meyer, Strach, Vallez, Sobotta, and
Thacker. Absent: Doherty, Bromley. Also in attendance were: Director of Economic Development
Martin, City Attorney Cahill, and Planning and Zoning Secretary Wolf.
No one signed into speak during Public Input.
Public Hearing: Big R Stores
File No. Z-867
1860 N. Richmond Rd.
Use Variance to allow an Open Sales Lot; Outdoor Storage and Bulk Fuel Storage and Sales
("Accessory Uses") in conjunction with a Retail Store ("Principal Use") and any
other Variances required effectuating the aforementioned request
Chairman Strach called the Public Hearing to order at 7:35 p.m. regarding File No Z- 867, an application
for a Use Variance to allow an Open Sales Lot; Outdoor Storage and Bulk Fuel Storage and Sales
("Accessory Uses") in conjunction with a Retail Store ("Principal Use") and any other Variances required
effectuating the aforementioned request on the subject property as submitted by Big R Stores for the
property located at 1860 N. Richmond Rd., McHenry, IL.
Chairman Strach stated Notice of the Public Hearing was published in the Northwest Herald on June 10,
2015. Notices were mailed to all abutting property owners of record as required by ordinance. The
subject property was posted. A Certificate of Publication and Affidavit of Compliance with notice
requirements are on file in the City Clerk's Office.
In attendance was Mr. Jerald Sherman, CFO, Big R Stores, 200 N. Ernest Grove Pkwy., Watseka, IL 60970
who was sworn in by Chairman Strach and provided summary of the request before the Commission at
this Hearing stating he is CFO and a stockholder of Big R. He further stated that Illiana Realty LLC will
actually purchase the property and lease it to Big R. Mr. Jerry Gibbs is the owner and apologizes for
being unable to make this hearing. Mr. Sherman stated he is here to ask for a use variance for outside
display areas at the property, which is a significant portion of Big R sales. Some displays will be year
round but others will be seasonal and there will be an outside cashier in the greenhouse area.
Everything done will meet city ordinances.
Director of Economic Development Martin provided the Commission with the Staff Report regarding this
matter stating the subject property is located at 1860 N Richmond Road, southeast corner of North
Richmond Road (Illinois Route 31) and McCullom Lake Road and consists of approximately nine acres
and he has been working with Mr. Sherman and Mr. Gibbs for several months.
Big R Stores, a farm and home retailer, and competitor of Farm and Fleet is interested in purchasing the
building formerly occupied by Target, which is located on Lot 1 in the McHenry Plaza Shopping Center.
McHenry Plaza Shopping Center consists of approximately 194,000 sf. and the former Target building is
Planning and Zoning Commission
Special July 2, 2015 Meeting
Page 2
95,420 square feet. The lot the former Target building sets on consists of nine acres and contains 521
parking spaces.
Big R is seeking a use variance to allow: an open sales lot; outdoor storage and bulk fuel storage and
sales ("Accessory Uses") in conjunction with their retail business ("Principal Use"). A use variance is
required because outdoor sales and display and bulk fuel sales are not permitted uses in the C-3 zoning
district, however these uses are commonly associated with this type of business. Home Depot
maintains outdoor storage and display areas and is located on North Richmond Road. Home Depot is
zoned C-5, however did receive a conditional use permit to allow outdoor sales and storage.
Big R's request includes a 28' X 270' (7,560 square -foot) storage and merchandise pick-up area on the
north side of the building and depicted on the site plan. It's within this area they are proposing to store
bulk kerosene and propane. They are also seeking approval for a 65' X 150' (9,750 square feet) outdoor
sales area for seasonal merchandise along the north property line and immediately south of the
driveway entrance to the site off of McCullom Lake Road, as well as an outdoor sales area west of the
former Target Store consisting of 13,500 square feet (90' X 150'). Lastly Big R would like to utilize the
area along the private sidewalk immediately west and adjacent to the building to display merchandise.
The proposed outdoor storage and merchandise pick-up area on the north side of the building will be
utilized for bulk kerosene and propane sales and storage as well as for farm and agri-business items
including: fencing and related fence products, livestock water tank, drain tile, etc. It's within this area
customers could look at merchandise and back into the area for loading and pick-up of merchandise.
The area will be paved. The State Fire Marshall regulates bulk fuel storage, which is required to be a
minimum of 25 feet from the building. Any above -ground bulk fuel storage tank must be constructed
and inspected by the State Fire Marshall prior to the tank being filled. Staff is recommending bollards be
placed adjacent to the bulk fuel storage tanks. Additionally, this area will be enclosed by a black chain
link fence. The former Sears/K-Mart has a similar area immediately to the north of the subject property
on the north side of McCullom Lake Road.
Along the north side of the building and south of McCullom Lake Road is a thirty-foot easement which
extends from the intersection of McCullom Lake Road and Richmond Road east along the northern
property line to the east of the building and contains water and sewer mains. The proposed outdoor
storage area is located outside of the thirty-foot easement. There is approximately 58.8' from the south
side of the existing sidewalk along McCullom Lake Road to the north side of the building on the subject
property. There is also a watermain which runs parallel to the former Target building within the
easternmost driveway aisle, within a ten -foot dedicated easement, as depicted on the McCullom Place II
Final Plat of Subdivision.
A large part of Big R's business is the sale of seasonal merchandise as well as outside sales generally.
There are three areas Big R is proposing to conduct their outdoor sales: a 9,750 square -foot area along
the north property line; a 13,500 square -foot space in the parking lot west of the building and on the
sidewalk immediately west and adjacent to the building. The sidewalk abutting the building to the west
ranges in width up to a maximum of 25 feet.
Form E of the City's zoning ordinance includes approval criteria to be considered when evaluating a
request for a use variance. Included are five criteria which the applicant must satisfy to receive a
positive recommendation for the request. These are: practical difficulties or particular hardship,
Planning and Zoning Commission
Special July 2, 2015 Meeting

reasonable return, unique circumstances, not altering local character and consistency with Lite
comprehensive plan. As previously stated other businesses along this corridor have, or former
businesses had, similar outdoor display and storage areas; therefore the proposed uses at 1860 N
Richmond Road are consistent with and will not alter the character of the area. The former Sears/K-
Mart had an outdoor storage and display area; the existing Sears Appliance, located within McHenry
Plaza displays items within the parking area, as well as on the sidewalk adjacent to the building. Further,
the former Wal-Mart at 2019 N Richmond Road had a large outdoor garden area on the west side of
their building and Home Depot, located two blocks to the north of the subject property, currently has
outdoor display areas to the east of their building, a permanent fenced -in garden/outdoor display and
sales area south of their building and they also store trucks and trailers (up to ten total) in their parking
area which are continually rented and dropped -off.
Ace Hardware on Crystal Lake Road is zoned C-3 and received a conditional use permit for similar
requests which Big R is seeking approval. Ace Hardware has a larger outdoor display area within their
parking lot, as well as on the sidewalk east of their building, a fenced -in area adjacent to their building
and store/sell bulk propane in a large tank to the southeast of their current building.
Staff believes the requests Big R is seeking are reasonable, consistent with the zoning ordinance and
comprehensive plan, will not adversely impact adjacent properties and fulfill all of the criteria outlined
in Table 32(A) of the zoning ordinance.
Director of Economic Development Martin stated it is staffs recommendation for approval of a use
variance to allow an open sales lot; outdoor storage and bulk fuel storage at 1860 N Richmond Road
subject to several conditions as presented. Staff finds all requirements in Table 32(A) of the zoning
ordinance have been satisfied.
Chairman Strach invited questions and/or comments from the Commission.
Commissioner Vallez asked for an explanation of the difference between C3 and C5 zoning. Director of
Economic Development Martin explained C5 is least restrictive whereas C3 is more restrictive. C5
zoning allows bulk propane and kerosene storage by right, C3 does not. Discussion ensued regarding
the distinctions in zoning. Commissioner Vallez asked if the fuel and propose storage will be in the rear
near residential areas or in the front. Director of Economic Development Martin stated it will be at the
northwest corner of the building approximately 25' west of the front. Commissioner Vallez stated his
only concern was the proximity of the fuel and propane storage to the residences but it appears their
location being in front of the building it appears safe.
Commissioner Sobotta inquired as to the size of the storage tanks and expressed concern about their
placement encroaching on the public walk. Discussion ensued. Director of Economic Development
Martin and Mr. Sherman both assured the commission nothing will encroach the public walk further
stating that placement and all conditions for the storage tanks are highly regulated by the State Fire
Marshall. A berm and bollards will be placed in the area as well.
Chairman Strach opened the floor to questions and comments from the audience. Verlene Ducey, 3408
3�d Ave., McHenry, was sworn in by Chairman Strach prior to addressing the Commission.
Planning and Zoning Commission
Special July 2, 2015 Meeting
Page 4
S. Ducey's main concern is the bulk fuel storage and its proximity to the residential houses in the area,
including when it is refilled and fuel is delivered. She also expressed a concern about lightning storms
and how they could affect the tanks. Mr. Sherman responded that Big R has these tanks safely stored
and refilled at 18 different stores in Illinois and Indiana. A tanker truck delivers the fuel and it is pumped
into the tanks. Mr. Sherman stated due to the placement of the tanks, deliveries would come in off of
McCullom Lake Rd. and would not use the alley or roadway in the rear of the store. Commissioner
Sobotta added the State Fire Marshall would require the tanks to be highly grounded in case of
lightning.
Chairman Strach closed the public comment portion of the hearing at 7:58 p.m.
Commissioner Meyer asked the location of the nearest store to McHenry. Mr. Sherman stated the
Morris store is probably the closest. Commissioner Thacker inquired when they hoped to open the
store. Mr. Sherman stated there is a lot to do but they hoped to open by September.
Commissioner Meyer asked if outside Christmas tree sales is done around the holidays as well as other
seasonal work. Mr. Sherman stated their store is more upscale than Farm and Fleet, outside Christmas
tree sales and other seasonal sales will occur but there is no automotive work done at the stores.
Motion by Meyer, seconded by Thacker, to recommend to the City Council with regard to File No. Z-867,
an application for a Use Variance to allow an Open Sales Lot; Outdoor Storage and Bulk Fuel Storage and
Sales ("Accessory Uses") in conjunction with a Retail Store ("Principal Use") and any other Variances

Big R Stores, a privately owned multi location farm and home store retailer, opened its first store in
1964 at Watseka, Illinois which is also the location of the corporate headquarters. Since that time, Big R
has grown to 19 locations in North Central Illinois and Indiana. Central Big R Stores, Inc., 90% owned by
Jerry L. Gibbs (CEO) and 10% owned by Jerald L. Sherman (CFO) wishes to open a new Big R Store at the
former Target Store location in McHenry, Illinois. In order for Big R to be successful at this location, the
following zoning ordinance variance are necessary:
1. During the months of March through June, lawn and garden sales are a significant portion of Big
R's sales. It is imperative that Big R be able to maintain an outside sales and display area for this
purpose. Big R requests approval of an area of 90 feet by 150 feet (approximate area shown on
site plan) for this purpose. This area will be kept neat and clean while surrounded by portable
black chain link fence that will be downsized at the end of the lawn and garden season which is
normally July 1't
2. A major portion of Big R's sales throughout the year are farm and agri-business related. It is
imperative that Big R be able to maintain and outside storage, display and loading area for these
types of items. Examples are: fence, fence posts, livestock water tanks and coils of drainage tile.
Big R requests approval of an area of 28 feet by 270 feet (approximate area shown on site plan)
and also an area of 65 feet by 150 feet (approximate area shown on site plan) for this purpose.
This area will be kept neat and clean while surrounded by permanent black chain link fence.
3. Big R needs to display various merchandise available for sale outside in front of the store. This
would be the immediate area adjacent to the front wall (West side of building) with a depth of
up to approximately 8 feet. This generally is the sidewalk area. Big R requests a variance to allow
for this display to be maintained overnight. Items stored outside would be very similar to the
Home Depot Store.

AGENDA SUPPLEMENT
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Douglas Martin, Director of Economic Development
FOR: July 20, 2015 Regular City Council Meeting
RE: Economic Incentive Agreement between the City of McHenry and Central Big R
Stores
ATT:
1. Ordinance authorizing the Mayor's execution of an Economic Incentive Agreement
between the City of McHenry and Central Big R Stores
2. City Council Meeting Minutes dated January 19, 2015
3. Draft Economic Incentive Agreement between the City of McHenry and Central Big R
Stores
BACKGROUND: In 2011 the City entered into an Economic Incentive Agreement with Regency
Centers to facilitate the completion of the former Do inlCk'S building at the north half of the
McHenry Commons Shopping Center adjacent to Richmond Road. The agreement included a
maximum total payment to Regency Centers of $677,499.49. The rebate is equivalent to 100%
A the base sales tax but does not include the home rule sales tax the City passed in 2010.
Therefore Regency receives a rebate in the amount of 1% of the gross sales generated annually
by Hobby Lobby and the City retains the .5% home rule sales tax generated from the annual
revenue by Hobby Lobby. The term of the agreement is such that it expires the earlier of any of
the following to occur: City's payment to Regency reaches the maximum total payment
($677,499.49); the permanent closure of the Hobby Lobby Store prior to Regency Centers
receiving the maximum total payment; or twenty years following the commencement date of
the agreement.
The purpose the rebate was to offset a portion of the costs incurred, which exceeded
$1,000,000, converting approximately 53,000 square feet of vacant retail space, formerly
occupied by Dominick's, so Hobby Lobby could move -in. The remaining 23,000 square -feet of
the same building is occupied by Goodwill of Northern Illinois but only redevelopment costs

attributed to the 53,000 square feet were factored into the incentive agreement. Council will
recall Dominick's closed their store in 2007 and the building had been vacant for four years.
On January 19, 2015 the City Council approved an economic incentive agreement with CVS
Pharmacy to recoup the expense incurred by CVS in acquiring the Firestone property as part of
their redevelopment of the northwest corner of Front Street and Elm Street. The agreement
has a 10-year term, in the form of a sales tax rebate not -to -exceed $175,000.
Attached is a proposed Economic Incentive Agreement between the City and Central Big R
Stores for the redevelopment of the property located at 1860 N Richmond Road (former Target
Store). Target purchased the property in 1992 for $2,000,000 and opened its store in 1994.
The proposed incentive agreement with Central Big R Stores includes a 100% sales tax rebate
which would be rebated to Central Big R Stores annually by the City for a maximum
reimbursement not -to -exceed $400,000.
ANALYSIS: The proposed agreement is solely for the reimbursement of equipment and fixture
purchases, for the following items, up to a maximum reimbursement of 5400,000.
Fixtures to display inventory for sale and accompanying Interior Display Signage $350,000
Information Technology equipment and related software licenses $70,000
Video cameras/monitoring equipment - $30,000
Material Handling Equipment $5%000
The term of the agreement is five years and only includes the base sales tax or 1% tax of the
total gross receipts and does not include the additional .5% home rule sales tax, which the City
would retain. Following is a chart outlining the proposed terms of the Agreement:

*Sales Tax Incentive Annual Payment for the December 31, 2016 Sales Tax Incentive
Year shall include Base Sales Tax received by the City in 2015 in addition to the Base
Sales Tax in 2016.
Big R is estimating annual gross sales initially at $8 million and to reach about $11 million after
the first few years the store is open at 1860 N Richmond Road. Using the $8 million figure the
estimated sales tax rebate would be $80,000/year (1% of gross receipts) and the City would
realize $40,000 annually (home rule sales tax). In 2021 or earlier as stipulated below the City's
estimated annual sales tax revenue from the Big R store would be $120,000-$165,000. The
assessed valuation on the property (1860 N Richmond Road) decreased by $57,194 from 2013-
2014, and the City will receive $14,391 in property taxes (2014 property taxes payable in 2015).
The proposed Agreement terminates on the earlier to occur of: (a) the City's Maximum Total
Payment to Big R; (b) the Permanent Closure of Big R, defined in Paragraph Six prior to Big R's
receipt of the Maximum Total Payment; (c) December 31, 2020 or (d) Improvements to the
Subject Property are not completed and a certificate of occupancy obtained by December 31,
M15. This Agreement shall remain in effect for enforcement and accounting purposes
following the expiration of the Term.
The City Council adopted an Economic Development Strategy in 2011 and below is the
evaluation criteria set forth in that policy by which requests such as sales tax rebates should be
evaluated.
Evaluation Criteria
Each request shall be generally evaluated based upon the following criteria.
L. Consistency with the City's Economic Development Plan and Economic Development
Strategy.
2. Revenue benefit to the City.
3. Level of circumstances with the property characteristics that create challenges or
practical difficulties regarding the development of the site.
4. Number and quality of jobs produced.
5. Strong public benefit to the City.
6. The ability of the development to spur additional economic development in the area.
7. The impact of a proposed development on the existing businesses within the City.
8. Level of applicant's creditworthiness and financial strength.
9. Level of compliance with approved design guidelines and development standards.

Staff believes the proposed agreement is justified due to the extraordinary circumstances
surrounding the proposed redevelopment. It is estimated Big R will spend approximately
$1,327,000, which does not include the purchase of the property or the initial inventory
expenditures. Staff has been working with Big R and the developer of the property for several
months to complete this project.
The subject property (former Target site) is a key redevelopment piece within the City because
of its visibility, accessibility and amount of traffic which traverses north Richmond Road and is
critical to the future viability of the McHenry Plaza Shopping Center and adjacent commercial
corridor. Additionally, the former Target building is one of three buildings currently vacant at
the intersection of McCullom Lake Road and Richmond Road which include: the former Target
building (96,000 square feet); former Wal-Mart building (116,000 square feet) and the former
Sears/K-Mart building (87,000 square feet).
Filling the former Target Store is the first step in the revitalization process of McHenry Plaza.
Big R will purchase the former Target lot from the developer who has the contract on the
property. Following, it's the developer's intention to construct an outlot in front of the Big R
store and working with the other owners of McHenry Plaza to amend the existing operation
and easement agreement, which is a private agreement amongst all the owners in the center,
and attract additional tenants to the shopping center.
Rebates should be considered very closely and on a case by case basis which has been the
policy of the City Council. Staff believes the proposed rebate is not excessive and the positive
impacts the redevelopment will have, both financially, aesthetically and also to City residents
and businesses far exceed the requested financial incentive.
If the City Council concurs it's recommended the attached ordinance authorizing the Mayor's
execution of an Economic Incentive Agreement between the City of McHenry and Central Big
R stores be approved.

CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING MINUTES
January 19, 2015
CONDITIONED UPON APPROVAL OF AGENDA ITEM NO. 9: APPROVAL OF AN ORDINANCE
AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR'S EXECUTION OF AN ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT INCENTIVE
AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF MCHENRY AND CVS/PHARMACY
City Administrator Morefield reiterated to Council that in 2011 the City of McHenry entered
into an Economic Incentive Agreement with Regency Centers to facilitate the completion of the
former Dominick's building at the north half of the McHenry Commons Shopping Center
adjacent to Richmond Road. Regency Centers received a rebate in the amount of 1% of the
gross sales generated annually by Hobby Lobby and the City retains the .5% home rule sales tax
generated from the annual revenue by Hobby Lobby. The terms of the Agreement are such that
it expires the earlier of any of the following to occur:
1. The City's payment to Regency reaches the maximum total payment, $677,499.49;
2. The permanent closure of the Hobby Lobby store prior to Regency Centers receiving the
maximum total payment; or
3. Twenty years following the commencement date of the Agreement.
The purpose of the rebate was to offset a portion of the costs incurred, which exceeded
$1,000,000, converting approximately 53,000 square feet of vacant retail space, formerly
occupied by Dominick's, so that Hobby Lobby could move in to the property. The remaining
23,000 square feet of the same building is occupied by Goodwill of Northern Illinois, but only
redevelopment costs attributed to the 53,000 square feet were factored into the Incentive
Agreement. City Administrator Morefield noted that Dominick's closed in 2007 and the
building stood vacant for four years.
CVS Pharmacy has been undertaking the redevelopment of the northwest corner of Elm Street
and Front Street. The costs associated with the project are significant. In addition to the
projected costs of the redevelopment, an unexpected cost was incurred with the acquisition of
the former Firestone property. CVS completed their site plan and was preparing to move
forward with the project without the Firestone site, however, due to easements and the
obligations associated with easements that had been in place for more than 30 years, together
with the shape and topography of the property, CVS had to seek the purchase of the Firestone
property approximately six weeks ago at a cost of $175,000.

CVS subsequently performed a Phase I and Phase II environmental impact study on the
Firestone site to insure there is no contamination. No contamination exists, however, as part of
the project CVS needs to demolish the Firestone building and include the property as part of
the development. Additionally, the freestanding Firestone sign will be removed.
CVS is seeking to recoup the expense incurred in acquiring the Firestone property in the form of
a sales tax rebate because this was not a cost they originally anticipated. They had hoped to
each an agreement with the owners of the Firestone site to modify the existing easement so
both Firestone and CVS could co -exist. Unfortunately, a mutually beneficial agreement could
not be reached and CVS entered into a purchase agreement with Firestone to purchase the
property for $175,000.
City Administrator Morefield summarized the Economic Incentive Agreement, which includes A
50% sales tax rebate, which would be rebated to CVS annually by the City of McHenry for five
years and 25% annually for the subsequent five years, up to a maximum reimbursement of
$175,000, and includes the following terms:
Commencing on the effective date of the Agreement and ending on the earlier to occur of:
a) The City's maximum total payment to CVS (sales tax incentive maximum of $175,000);
b) The permanent closure of CVS prior to CVS's receipt of the maximum total payment (sales
tax incentive maximum of $175,000);
c) December 31, 2025; or
d) Improvements to the Subject Property are not completed and a Certificate of Occupancy
obtained by December 31, 2015.
City Administrator Morefield noted that unlike the Regency Agreement the proposed CVS
Agreement is for a maximum of 10 years.
Staff believes the proposed Agreement is justified due to the extraordinary circumstances
surrounding the proposed redevelopment. The subject property is a key redevelopment site
within the City due to visibility, accessibility and the amount of traffic traversing the adjacent
roadways. However, it is a challenging site to redevelop due to the existing building that needs
to be razed, topographical considerations and the fact that it is extremely visible and adjacent
to a City park (A. P. Freund Field). CVS has not requested any type of financial rebate or
incentive until the unanticipated purchase of the Firestone property.

REGULAR AGENDA SUPPLEMENT
July 20, 2015
Mayor and City Council
Derik Morefield, City Administrator
RE: Consideration of an Ordinance Amending Chapter 7.50 (Signs), Section 7.50.2
(General Provisions), Subsection E (Nonconforming Signs), Paragraph 2
(Other Signs) of the McHenry Municipal Code
ATT:
1. Community Development Committee Minutes dated: 1/17/12; 2/21/12; 5/15/12;
3/13/15; and 6/22/15
2. City Council Minutes dated 10/1/12
3. 2013 and 2014 Notification Letters Sent to Property Owners
4. Memorandum for Recording
5. Correspondence from Property Owners/Businesses
6. Spreadsheet identifying remaining non -conforming signs with an identification of the
non -conformity type
7. Ordinance Amending Chapter 7.50 (Signs), Section 7.50.2 (General Provisions),
Subsection E (Nonconforming Signs), Paragraph 2 (Other Signs) of the McHenry
Municipal Code
Background
In 2006, amendments to the City's sign ordinance were adopted by the City Council. Included
within those amendments was the regulation and amortization of non -conforming free-
standing signs with the inclusion of the following language:
E. Nonconforming Signs
1) Temporary Signs
All non-exempt temporary signs shall be either removed or brought into full
conformity with the requirements of this Ordinance within 45 days of the
adoption thereof or of any amendment thereto.

saw
2) Other Signs (MC-06-892)
All other non-exempt signs lawfully existing, or holding Sign Permits issued,
prior to the date of adoption of this Ordinance, but which are not in
conformance with these regulations, may be continued as nonconformities
until 810712013. Prior to 810712013 they must be brought up to the new
standards or pay an annual permit fee as outlined below. If a property having a
nonconforming sign is vacant for a period of 90 consecutive days, or has any
change in occupancy or use, any new sign on the property must meet the
requirements of this Section. No nonconforming sign may otherwise be
replaced with another nonconforming sign. Nonconforming signs shall be
subject to all the requirements governing the continuation of nonconforming
structures as provided in the regulations governing Nonconformities in this
Ordinance.
Sign Type Annual Fee
Freestanding commercial sign < 15' high $400.00
Freestanding commercial sign > 15' high $800.00
Freestanding/billboard off -site sign $1500.00
Portable signs $200.00
The annual fee will be used to pay for annual re -inspections of the
nonconforming signs and to fund City improvements to aesthetically enhance
certain important roadways and/or the adjacent areas to the non -conforming
signs by locating street trees, installing sidewalks, under grounding utilities, or
other improvements beneficial to the public.
On January 17, 2012 and February 21, 2012 the Community Development Committee
discussed the impending August 71 2013 amortization deadline for all noncompliant free-
standing signage. Staff was directed by the Committee to investigate the matter further in
order to verify if the original intent of the ordinance was being met and present
recommendations indicating how staff should move forward.
In May of 2012 staff presented the issue to the Community Development Committee
following a review of the 2006 changes, conversations with the City Attorney, compilation of
cost estimates for businesses to comply with the ordinance, and completion of a
comprehensive survey of businesses which had non -conforming signs and would be impacted
by the ordinance.
On October 1, 2012 the City Council approved a two year extension of the amortization
period. This two-year extension was initiated and supported by staff and City Council with an
City Administration

McHenry, Illinois 60050

Fax: (815) 363-2119
www.ci.mchenry.il.us
understanding of the burden that would be placed on businesses during Cl turbulent and
uncertain economy and the belief it would have posed an undue hardship on property
owners to enforce the existing deadline; therefore the amortization deadline was extended
until August 7, 2015.
The direction by the Community Development Committee and City Council in 2012 also
included provisions whereby staff would send two letters to all impacted property owners,
the first of which was sent in 2013, and the second in 2014, reminding property owners of the
nonconformity regulations, compliance deadline and annual fee requirement which would be
imposed if the sign non -conformity was not eliminated.
Additionally, staff recorded a memorandum for recording against all impacted properties to
ensure if the property owner changed within that two-year time period (2013-2015) the new
property owner would be aware of the regulations and amortization deadline. A second
letter (attached) was sent in 2014 approximately one year prior to the deadline and its
purpose was to remind property owners of the impending deadline, extent and type of non-
conformity and annual registration fee.
Analysis
When the letters were sent out in 2013 and 2014 staff did receive some calls, many inquiring
about what options property owners had to comply with the regulations. In summary, under
the current ordinance language, there are three (3) options for property owners to comply
with the non -conforming sign regulations:
1) Eliminate the nonconformity (height, size and/or setback);
2) Obtain a variance from the City Council which, unless there is a specific time
placed on the variance, is equivalent to compliance; and,
3) Pay the annual re -inspection fee beginning in August 2015 as identified in the
ordinance
As the August 2015 deadline has neared, staff has received feedback from multiple property
owners expressing concerns pertaining to the impending amortization deadline and, further,
the financial impact of the ordinance requirements on their property/business. Prior to
implementing the ordinance regulations, and with this input from potential affected property
owners and businesses, Staff felt compelled to bring this topic back before the Community
Development Committee to ensure that the Committee and, ultimately, City Council were
aware of the impending deadline, implications, and procedure that would be utilized to
enforce the regulations. As a result, the topic was introduced as a future agenda item at the
May 13, 2015 Community Development Committee Meeting and, with consensus from the
City Administration

Community Development Committee, was placed on the June 22, 2015 agenda for
discussion/recommendation.
At the June 22"d meeting (minutes attached) the Community Development Committee heard
from a number of property and business owners regarding the impacts of the ordinance.
Other property owners and businesses provided written correspondence also. As a result of
this input and discussion by the Committee and Staff, the Committee directed Staff to
develop an ordinance recommendation to forward directly to the full City Council that would
cause Section 7.50 (Signs), Paragraph E (Nonconforming Signs), Sub -paragraph 2 (Other Signs)
of the McHenry Municipal Code to be amended to allow existing non -conforming signs to
exist until/unless certain criteria were met that would cause the need to bring the signs in to
compliance.
After considerable discussion among members of the Community and Economic Development
Department Staff responsible for applying the sign ordinance, and the City's legal counsel the
following amendment is being recommended.
Section 7.50, Paragraph E, Sub -paragraph 2
Existing Language:
Other Signs
All other non-exempt signs lawfully existing, or holding Sign Permits issued, prior to the
date of the adoption of this Ordinance, but which are not in conformance with these
regulations, may be continued as nonconformities until 0810712015. Prior to
O810712015 they must be brought up to the new standards or pay an annual permit
fee as outlined below. If a property having a nonconforming sign is vacant for a period
of 90 consecutive days, or has any change in occupancy or use, any new sign on the
property must meet the requirements of this Section. No nonconforming sign may
otherwise be replaced with another nonconforming sign. Nonconforming signs shall
be subject to all the requirements governing the continuation of nonconforming
structures as provided in the regulations governing Nonconformities in this Ordinance.
Sign Type Annual Fee
Freestanding commercial sign <15' high $ 400.00
Freestanding commercial sign >15' high $ 800.00
Freestanding/billboard off -site sign $11500.00
Portable Signs $ 200.00

The annual fee will be used to pay for annual re -inspections of the nonconforming
signs and to fund City improvements to aesthetically. enhance certain important
roadways and/or the adjacent areas to the non -conforming signs by locating street
trees, installing sidewalks, under grounding utilities, or other improvements beneficial
to the public.
To be replaced with:
Other Signs
All other non-exempt signs lawfully existing, or holding Sign Permits issued, prior to the
date of adoption of this Ordinance, but are not in conformance with these regulations
may be continued as nonconformities until such time as at least one of the following
thresholds are met:
• A property on which a nonconforming sign is located is vacant for a period
90 consecutive days (this does not apply to individual units of multiple
tenant buildings but, rather, to the entire property); or
• A property has any change in use; or
• A permit for the replacement, alteration, enlargement, or structural change
of any kind (other than for a change of face) is requested; or
• The nonconforming sign is identified as "unsafe" by the Zoning
Administrator
Further, no existing nonconforming sign may otherwise be replaced with another
nonconforming sign. Nonconforming signs shall be subject to all the requirements
governing the continuation of nonconforming structures as provided in the regulations
governing Nonconformities in the Ordinance.
Recommendation
In summary, the proposed amendment eliminates the deadline by which nonconforming
signs must come in to conformance, eliminates the annual re -inspection fee option, and
introduces a set of criteria by which nonconforming signs will be brought in to conformance
through the normal redevelopment and reuse process.
Provided, for Council's additional information is an up-to-date list of all existing
nonconforming signs to which this Ordinance amendment would apply. Further, notification
has been provided to all of these property owners to make them aware of the potential

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE MEETING
Tuesday, January 17, 2012
Aldermen's Conference Room, 7:00 p.m.
Discussion Regarding Sign Ordinance Amendments and
Discussion on 2013 Enforcement of Non=Conforming Signs
Director Schwalenberg reiterated to the Committee that on August 7, 2006, Council approved
amendments to the sign ordinance, which included a seven-year timeframe for property
owners to bring non-exempt portable and freestanding signage into compliance or pay an
annual fee. Director Schwalenberg informed the Committee that a windshield survey
conducted in August, 2011 on West Elm Street, North Richmond Road, North Front Street and
South Route 31 determined there are approximately 65 signs not in compliance with the sign
ordinance. Since August 7, 2006, a total of seven variances for permanent signs have been
granted for relief of the City's sign ordinance, none of which are included in the number
surveyed. Beginning August 2013, an annual registration fee will be due. There are 50 signs
that exceed the 15400t height limitation, 28 do not meet the 5400t setback requirement, 8
exceed the total number of signs permitted per property and 4 exceed area limitations.
Should none of the signs be brought into compliance or variances granted by the deadline the
City can expect to see approximately $44,000 in annual sign registration fees due. Staff noted
that this could negatively impact the promotion of new business and retention of existing
businesses.
Staff would like the Committee to consider revisiting the deadline and annual registration fee
requirement, as well as the entire sign ordinance to ascertain if this is the direction still
desired. Staff is seeking direction on how to proceed.
2013 Sign Deadline
Staff believes the deadline should not be extended. It was noted that seven sign variances
have been granted since the ordinance was enacted and 6 of the 7 signs will be
grandfathered.
The options presented regarding the 2013 sign deadline are:
o Move forward with enforcement, beginning on August 7, 2013
o Postpone the deadline an additional five years
o Abandon the deadline and registration completely.

Chairman Alderman Condon inquired whether any notice was provided to the business
owners regarding the amendments to the sign ordinance when they were approved in 2006.
Director Schwalenberg stated he is unaware of any notice that was provided at that time.
Chairman Alderman Condon opined that postponing the deadline for compliance for five
years is excessive, but she would support a 2-year extension, with an effective date of August
7, 2014.
A brief discussion ensued. It was the consensus to provide business owners with notice within
the next 90-day period, followed by a second notice and to extend the deadline for
compliance to August 7, 2014.
Temporary Signs (posted in right -of way, presently only permitted by Council action on a non -
consistent quantity, time -frame and location basis)
Director Schwalenberg informed the Committee that Staff is suggesting that if an applicant
meets all the criteria, requests for temporary signs would not be required to go to Council.
Staff presented the following recommendations for Temporary Signs:
o Permit Required: Yes
o Designated Locations: 10 preapproved locations only
o Chapel Hill and Route 120 (s/w corner only)
o Richmond Road and Elm Street (south side of Elm Street only)
o Crystal Lake Road and Elm Street (north side of Elm Street only)
o Ringwood Road and Elm Street (one corner only)
o Ridge Road (west city limits) and Route 120 (in area of city sign only, s/e corner)
o Richmond Road and Shoppers Drive (one corner only)
o Richmond Road and Blake Boulevard (one corner only)
o Richmond Road and McCullom Lake Road (one corner only)
o Crystal Lake Road and Bull Valley Road (one corner only)
o Bull Valley Road and South Route 31 (one corner only) Quantity: One sign per
intersection
o Size: 18 x 24 inches (3 square feet)
o Time Frame: Two weeks prior to event and must be removed two days following event
o Permit Label: Affixed to sign, color to change by Staff determination
o Illumination: Not Permitted
It was noted that any requests from an establishment out of the City would require a variance
and would come before Council as a regular agenda item. Director Schwalenberg also stated

that the criteria indicated above applied only to not -for -profit, charitable and philanthropic
organizations.
Chairman Alderman Condon inquired what would occur if a number of organizations
requested displaying signs simultaneously. Deputy City Administrator Martin stated that it
could happen, but would be a rarity, in which case three signs might overlap one week. He
noted that City events would always have priority. Alderman Glab opined that all temporary
signs should come before Council as a Consent Agenda item. Alderman Peterson and
Alderman Santi concurred. Alderman Glab stated that if the process is made too easy the
number of sign requests is likely to increase.
Alderman Peterson suggested that the $30 deposit be retained until the signs have been
removed.
Sandwich Board (presently not permitted by Ordinance)
Staff is recommending that sandwich boards be considered exempt subject to the following
criteria being met:
o Height: Not to exceed four feet
o Size: Not to exceed 12 square feet (36-inches wide x 48-inches high)
o Quantity: One
o Location: Within five feet of building, located outside of right of way and does not
block walkways or create vision impairment issues
o Illumination: Not Permitted
Staff is suggesting an annual fee of $30 for the permit, as long as the location and structure of
the business does not change, with a deposit to insure compliance. Alderman Glab opined
that 36 x 48 is too big. Deputy City Administrator Martin proposed a 24-inch x 36-inch sign in
C4 areas downtown.
Chairman Alderman Condon stated she has less concern with the size of the sandwich board
suggested by Staff, but is adamant that they be maintained in good condition while on
display.
Alderman Santi and Alderman Peterson indicated no issues with the sandwich boards.
Feather Banners (presently not permitted by Ordinance because temporary signage cannot
exceed eighteen feet in height. Feather banners range from 3' x 8' to 5' x 20').
Staff is suggesting that feather banners be considered exempt -if there is compliance with the
following criteria:

McHenry, Illinois 60050
Phone: (815) 363-2108
Fax: (815) 363-2119

o Height: Not to exceed 10 feet
o Quantity: One
o Area: Not to exceed 32 square feet
o Location: Within five feet of the building, not in the right of way, and not blocking any
walkways or creating vision impairment issues
o Display time: Same as temporary signs, if permitted.
A brief discussion ensued regarding feather banners and distractions. Chairman Alderman
Condon suggested the discussion be put on hold until the details could be discussed with the
City Attorney.
Staff is proposing to have the following definitions added:
o Sign —Sandwich Board
o A double face board carrying a sign or notice, especially one used to advertise a
product, event, etc., that does not exceed three feet in height and six square feet in
area
o Sign — Monument
o Any permanent sign which is supported by a base of at least 75% of the sign width,
eight -feet or less in height and is independent from any building
o Sign —Neon
o Add LED (Light Emitting Diode) to definition
o Exempt Signage
o Add "not more than 50% of signage area shall be dedicated to logo of business name."
Delete "shall not be illuminated."
Contractor signage (presently not permitted by Ordinance unless a temporary sign permit is
issued) Staff would like contractor signage considered exempt if the following criteria is met:
o Size: Three square feet, 18-inches high x 24-inches wide
o Only to be displayed while contractor is actively working at the site
o Located a minimum of five feet back from all property lines and not in the right of way
o One permitted per street frontage, per zoning lot
A discussion ensued regarding the length of time a sign can be displayed. Chairman Alderman
Condon reiterated that the sign must be maintained in good condition. Election Campaign
Signs (presently limited to 45-days prior to and two days after an election). Staff is proposing
revising the Code to remove condition no. 2 - display time. This is necessary in order to bring
the Ordinance into compliance with state law which was recently changed with regard to the

amount of time campaign signs can be on display. The new law, recently passed, has no time
limit on the display of campaign signs. Real Estate Signs — Commercial/Industrial (presently all
commercial and industrial real estate signage requires a permit)
Staff is proposing real estate signs be considered exempt from permits if they conform to the
following requirements:
o Height: Maximum 6-feet
o Location: One permitted per street frontage
o Size: Maximum of 32-square feet
o Illumination: Not Permitted
o Setback: Minimum of five feet from all property lines
o Duration: Removal within one week after consummation of sale or lease
Chairman Alderman Condon stated she had no concerns other than the signs be maintained
in good condition. Seasonal Decorations (display is currently limited to 45 days before and 45
days following a holiday). Staff is proposing including text to reference "in compliance with
current City codes." Chairman Alderman Condon opined that 45 days following a holiday is
too long for decorations to remain on display.
Flashing Signs (flashing signage is prohibited by ordinance)
Staff is proposing the following text be added:
o Text prohibiting the use of flashing lights to attract attention to a product, service or
building (both inside and outside)
o Text creating an exemption for moving backgrounds used on electronic message
boards
Chairman Alderman Condon suggested letters be sent to business owners so there is no
misunderstanding between "moving" signage and "flashing" signage, with flashing signage
defined as the same message repeatedly flashing. Alderman Santi opined the flashing signage
issue should be strongly enforced.
Service Station Signs and Displays
Staff informed the Committee that the present ordinance states: A facility or premises
primarily used for retail sale of fuels or oils for automobiles, trucks or boats and which may
include as a secondary activity retail sale of tires, batteries and similar accessories and the

making of repairs to vehicles or parts thereof that do not normally require storing such
vehicles on the premises overnight.
Staff recommends adding "automobile repair shop" to the definition. This is necessary for
outside display of product and signage.
Automobile Repair Shop
Staff recommends adding "oil change shop" to this definition. This is necessary in order to be
consistent with outside display of product and signage in similar uses. Administration -
Section d (presently ordinance allows only white). Staff is suggesting eliminating the word
"white" and inserting "neutral or color consistent with existing structure." This would allow
an abandoned sign to blend in with its surroundings. Following discussion it was determined
by the Committee that Staff would make the proposed revisions, taking into consideration
suggestions from the Committee returning at a future meeting for future discussions on the
topic of signage.

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE MEETING
Tuesday, February 21, 2012
Aldermen's Conference Room, 7:00 p.m.
Discussion: Sign Ordinance
2013 Amortization Deadline for Non -Conforming Signs
Director Schwalenberg provided the Committee with a list of businesses that are currently in
violation of the sign ordinance and would be required to bring their signs into compliance by
the August 2014 deadline as recommended by the Committee at its last meeting. He noted
there were approximately 80 businesses involved that would be required to either bring their
signs into compliance or pay the annual fee as required by the zoning ordinance.
Chairman Condon inquired if the businesses have been notified of the need to comply by
2014. Director Schwalenberg responded in the negative. He noted if the Committee directs
Staff to proceed with the directive of the sign ordinance, notification would be made to all
impacted businesses in August 2012 advising them that compliance would be required by
August 2014 or annual fees would be required. Then, again, in August 2013, a second notice
would be sent to all of the impacted businesses, reminding them of the need to comply by
August 2014 or annual sign non -conforming fees would have to be paid.
Director Schwalenberg stated the non -conforming signs involved all types of signs, namely,
wall, free-standing, directional, etc.
Chairman Condon asked if each business with anon -conforming sign would be required to
pay an annual fee. Director Schwalenberg responded they would have to pay a fee for each of
the non -conforming signs on their property. Chairman Condon inquired if the businesses
could seek a variance to allow the non -conforming sign(s). Deputy Administrator Martin
responded they could take that route. There are approximately 80 businesses with non-
conforming signs. Several businesses have more than one non -conforming sign on the
premises.
Chairman Condon requested the Committee be provided copies of the minutes of the
Community Development Committee meeting and the City Council meeting at which the non-
conforming signs being brought into compliance by August 2013 was originally discussed.
Deputy Administrator Martin recalled the intent of the 2006 ordinance requiring compliance
by August 2013 related solely to freestanding signs with regard to height, area, setback and
number per lot. Director Schwalenberg agreed to amend the list of non -conforming signs by
removing all that do not relate to freestanding signs.

Sandwich Board Signs
Director Schwalenberg stated it has been brought to Staffs attention the increasing number
of sandwich board signs being displayed in the City. Currently sandwich board signs are not
allowed. Suggestion was made by Staff to exempt the sandwich board signs or allow them
with a temporary sign permit.
Deputy Administrator Martin noted, alternatively, the City could prohibit sandwich board
signs, particularly in the right-of-way. Alderman Santi suggested those businesses which have
a broad/wide sidewalk could be allowed to have a sandwich board sign as it would not
impede the walkway. Alderman Peterson noted the goal of the City is to maintain public
safety. He questioned the safety of allowing signs on the sidewalks. Lengthy discussion
followed regarding the pros and cons of allowing sandwich board signs.
Deputy Administrator Martin stated in recent years more merchants are choosing to
advertise via signs placed on the sidewalk. The best way to regulate these signs would be to
specify where they can be placed, the size of the signs, etc. He noted the concern with the
signs relates to public safety. Alderman Peterson suggested obtaining an opinion from the
City Attorney if the City were to move forward with no rules governing sandwich board signs.
Deputy Administrator Martin noted if someone trips over a sign, the City would incur liability
whether there were regulations in place or not.
Alderman Peterson suggested making the sandwich board signs exempt subject to the
following requirements:
1. Maximum of one per business or per business frontage;
2. Maximum size of 24 by 42";
3. Sign must be removed at the end of the business day;
4. Sign shall not impede pedestrian traffic or cause pedestrians to have to walk in the street.
Sign Ordinance Amendments
Director Schwalenberg noted Staff suggested various modifications to the sign ordinance
relating to the following:
o Temporary signs in City rights -of -way — designating maximum time allowable (i.e. up
to fourteen days) and desired established locations, pending Council approval;
o Feather banners —previously not addressed as a temporary sign;
o Contractor signs —added restrictions to ensure they are removed when contractor is
not working;
o Non-residential real estate signs — previously not covered by the ordinance;

be amended as presented regarding the following:
o Sandwich board signs;
o Temporary signs in City rights -of -way;
o Feather banners;
o Contractor signs;
o Non-residential real estate signs;
o Flashing lights,

No one signed in for Public Input Session.
Discussion Regarding Non -Conforming Signs
Director Schwalenberg reiterated to the Committee that on January 17 and February 21, 2012
the Committee discussed the impending August 7, 2013 amortization deadline for registering
all non -compliant free standing signage. Staff was directed by the Committee to investigate
the matter in order to verify that the original intent of the Ordinance was being met and
present recommendations indicating how we should move forward.
Director Schwalenberg stated that in order to obtain a better understanding of the original
intent of the Ordinance Staff reviewed the ordinance, agenda supplements and minutes, from
the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council meetings in 2006. Once the review was
complete, Staff consulted with the City Attorney to make certain a proper interpretation was
being made and to obtain direction on how to proceed. A comprehensive survey was
conducted regarding existing signage and the non -conforming data list was updated. Director
Schwalenberg presented the Committee with a spreadsheet reflecting each non -conforming
property, the non -conformity of each property, as well as the anticipated annual registration
fee that would be required should signage fail to be brought into compliance by August 7,
2013.
Staff believes it would be a hardship on property owners, at this time, to enforce the existing
registration deadline of August 7, 2013 and believes the Committee should consider an
extension of the amortization period for an additional two years. This extension would
provide sufficient time for a series of letters to be sent to each property owner. Director
Schwalenberg indicated the first letter would be information, stating the non -conformity,
deadline, annual registration cost and annual fee requirement that would be recorded against
the property should the signage fail to be brought into compliance by August 2015. A second
letter would be sent approximately one year prior to the deadline as a reminder to the
property owner of the impending deadline and annual registration fee.

Staff believes moving forward in this manner complies with the original intent of the
Ordinance and provides sufficient time for the property owners to comply.
Responding to an inquiry, Director Schwalenberg indicated there are approximately 75 non-
compliant signs currently located in the City. A lengthy discussion ensured regarding height
issues and setback issues regarding signage. Deputy City Administrator Martin opined he is
concerned that one property might be C4 and another C-5, yet the properties could be side
by side. A problem might develop if a distinction is implied.
Chairman Alderman Condon opined that a 2-year extension is reasonable. Alderman Santi
concurred.
Motion by Santi, seconded by Peterson to direct Staff to forward the sign amendments to full
Council for direction to the Planning and Zoning Commission to conduct a Public Hearing on
the proposed amendments.

Public Input Session
Review of Existing Fence Ordinance and Recommended Updates
City Administrator Morefield relayed the difficulties staff is experiencing enforcing sections
of the city's fence regulations. The committee's input and recommendations are sought to
resolve some of these issues and direction to proceed with a formal update to Municipal
Code Article XI (Fences) incorporating recommendations of the committee.
Corner Side Yards: Currently, fencing of any style up to 6-feet in height is permitted in the
corner side yard as long as the fence is placed a minimum of 154eet from the property line.
Staff is recommending an amendment to allow any style fence up to 64eet in height to be
placed in the corner side yard with a minimum 5-foot setback from the property line. The
committee concurred and recommended staff should be sure to inspect the area for possible
line of site issues prior to issuing a permit.
Required Front Yards: Currently, split rail fences with an overall height not to exceed 42-
i11ches in the required front yard are permitted. From time to time residents request
permission to install other types of open -style fencing. Staff is recommending an amendment
to permit split rail, picket and wrought iron style fencing in the required front yard with a
minimum opacity of 50% to maintain visibility; and, increasing the overall height to 4&
inches to allow the fencing to be used as an approved barrier for swimming pools. The
committee concurred with allowing the recommended types of open -style fencing with a
minimum opacity of 50%, with no change to the maximum overall height requirement of 42-
inches.
Double Frontage Lots: Currently, the ordinance does not allow wrought iron style or chain
link fencing in required front yard of the lot frontage that does not have driveway access to
the street; properties along Dartmoor Drive, McCullom Lake Road, and Crystal Lake Road
are examples. Staff recommends allowing chain link and wrought iron style fencing in these
locations and the committee concurred.
Non -Residential Properties: Currently, city ordinance requires all chain link fencing installed
with knuckle side (twisted portion at the top of the fence) facing up. Non-residential
property owners usually use fencing for security purposes and in many cases place barbed
wire along the top. Staff is recommending removing the knuckle side up requirement for
non-residential fencing over 64eet in height so the "bars" of the fence can face upward.
Chain link fencing under 64eet in height and all residential chain link fencing would still
require the "knuckle" side of the fence to face upward. Also, staff is recommending an
Community Development Committee Meeting
May 11, 2015
Page 2
amendment to permit barbed wire supporting arms to face outwards as long as it is over 6-
feet in height and no part of the arm or barbed wire shall extend beyond the property line.
The committee concurred.
Invisible Fences. Invisible style dog fencing is becoming more popular and many residents
have installed invisible fencing around their homes. Currently, there are no provisions in the
code to allow or prevent its use. Occasionally, the wire used for this type of fencing is found
in the city right -of --way or installed through a culvert pipe located in drainage ditches.
Residents walking and unaware of a home with an invisible fence are startled by dogs
running towards them. Staff asked the committee for direction on possibly regulating this
type of fencing and what type of limitations should be placed on the installation. The
committee agreed invisible fencing should be setback from the property line. The committee
directed staff to research other communities and schedule this topic for discussion at a future
committee meeting.
Update on Adoption of McHenry County Stormwater Management Ordinance and
Request to Schedule a Joint Meetine with the Public Works Committee
City Administrator Morefield stated the McHenry County Board adopted an amendment to
the Stormwater Management Ordinance on November 18, 2014 and because the city is
certified by McHenry County to issue permits and enforce the provisions of the SWO, the
City Council must adopt the new ordinance by December 1, 2015.
As regulation of the SWO overlaps between Community Development and Public Works, it
would be beneficial to schedule a workshop with members of the Community Development
and Public Works Committees to review and discuss the new amendments prior to
consideration by the City Council. The committee concurred and directed staff to schedule
the workshop for a date this summer.
Update on Amortization of Non -Conforming Signs and Request for Committee
Recommendation for Further Action
City Administrator Morefield noted the non -conformity provisions in the city's sign
ordinance were approved in 2006. Property owners with non -conforming signs had until
August 7, 2013 to bring their signs up to the new standards or pay an annual permit fee:
Freestanding commercial < IS" high $400
Freestanding commercial sign > $800
Fr eestanding/Billboard offsite sign $1500
Portable signs $200
In October 2012, the City Council approved the Community Development Committee's
recommendation for atwo-year extension of the amortization period to August 7, 2015. In
2012, the committee and council also included provisions whereby staff would send two
letters to all impacted property owners, the first of which was sent in 2013. Staff also
recorded with the county a Memorandum of Recording against all impacted properties to

ensure compliance should the property be sold to a new owner. The second letter was mailed
in 2014 alerting nonconforming property owners of the impending deadline.
When letters were sent to property owners in 2013 and 2014 staff did receive some calls,
many inquiring about their options:
1) Eliminate the nonconformity (heigh#, size and/or setback);
2) Obtain a variance; or
3) Pay the annual re -inspection fee beginning in August 2015 as
identified in the ordinance.
As the August 2015 deadline approaches, staff has recently received feedback from several
property owners expressing concerns about the deadline. To that end, staff wants to ensure
that the committee and council are aware of the approaching deadline, possible legal
implications, and procedures that will be utilized to enforce the regulations.
Staff recommended the following action for the committee's consideration:
• Present updated information to the committee at its June 22°d imeeting including
identifying the property owners that have complied with the regulations.
• Identify the sign variances that have been granted by the Council since 2006.
• Information on property owners who have to date not complied with the ordinance.
• Updated legal opinion from the City Attorney outlining legal issues associated with
non -conformity regulations including the legality of amortization and legal opinions
and court cases since original passage of the ordinance in 2006.
• Information on other communities that have enacted similar provisions.
• Process moving forward to enforce the regulations as written.
• Send letters to all remaining impacted property owners inviting them to the June CDC
meeting.
Alderman Condon expressed concern about property owners who have complied with the
new regulations noting when the regulations were originally enacted, site lines and reduced
setbacks caused by road improvements were taken into consideration.
Alderman Peterson requested a list of non -conforming signs and added when the ordinance
was amended in 2006 aesthetics were also taken into consideration.
Alderman Santi concurred with the committee's statements and said he would consider
another extension to the deadline.

business. City Administrator Morefield answered yes; although the building is for
sale the restaurant is still operating. Alderman Santi asked if the cellular phone
business in the Riverplace development closed for business and Administrator
Morefield answered yes. Also, Monaco's on West Route 120 is closed for business
and the property will be sold soon to the owner of the Town Club on Riverside Drive
who intends to open a bar/restaurant.

Update on Amortization of Non -Conforming Suns and Staff Request for direction on
whether to proceed with Implementation of the Ordinance as written or forward a
recommendation to the City Council for some other action to be taken with regard to
implementation of the Ordinance based on information presented at this meeting
City Administrator Morefield informed the Committee that the regulation and amortization
ofnon-conforming signs accomplishes multiple objectives, three of which relate to aesthetics
(cohesive visual community appearance), safety for drivers, and parity for businesses. Many
signs, particularly along Route 120 and Route 31 vary in height, from five or six feet to 25-
five feet. The signs also vary in setback. Additionally, when the city annexed properties east
of the Fox River in the late 1990s the businesses were annexed as -is, including signage. As a
result, many businesses have signs that do not comply with city regulations.
Staff has ascertained that there exists visual clutter which relates directly to the aesthetic
appearance throughout the city. In 2006, the Council approved an amendment to the city's
sign ordinance that included the regulation and amortization of non -conforming free standing
signs until August 7, 2013 at which time they must be brought up to the new standards or pay
Community Development Committee Meeting
June 22, 2015

an annual permit fee. On October 1, 2012 Council approved a two-year extension of the
amortization period to August 7, 2015. This action was taken because of the burden placed
on businesses during a turbulent and uncertain economy and to inform the owners of non-
conforming signs about the new deadline and requirements of compliance.
At the direction of the Council, letters were mailed to all impacted property owners, the first
of which was sent in 2013 approximately two year before the August 2015 deadline; making
the property owner area of the impending deadline. A second letter was mailed in 2014.
Also, a Memorandum of Recording was filed with McHenry County containing the addresses
of all impacted properties should they be sold so the new owner(s) would be made aware of
the regulations and amortization deadline. Staff received some telephone called following
receipt of the letters and were given three options to comply with the regulations:
1. Eliminate the nonconformity (height, size and/or setback);
2. Obtain a variance from the Council which, unless there is a specific time placed on
the variance, is equivalent to compliance; and,
3. Pay an annual re -inspection fee, beginning in August 2015, as identified in the
Ordinance.
Recently, staff has received feedback from multiple property owners expressing concerns
pertaining to the impending amortization deadline. To that extent, staff wants to ensure the
Committee and the Council are aware of the impending deadline, the implications, and
procedure which will be utilized to enforce the regulations. Staff also wants to provide the
Committee and the Council with the most current legal options and court cases relevant to
this issue since its original passage in 2006.
The Committee is asked to provide direction to staff on how to proceed with the
implementation of the Non -conforming Sign Ordinance, as written, or to forward a
recommendation to Council for some other action with regard to implementation of the
Ordinance, based on the information presented.
Chairman Alderman Condon said this matter has been discussed for over ten year and was
originally presented to the Committee so sight lines and sets backs would be level. She
acknowledged that all persons who spoke during public input have valid concerns. She
emphasized that the Non -conforming Sign Ordinance was not initiated to generate revenue
and the fees were only imposed to encourage compliance. Chairman Condon added the
committee is cognizant of distractions caused by the varying signs and desires the
community to be aesthetically pleasing. Chairman Alderman Condon stated that she would
be in favor of grandfathering in current signage with the understanding that any new signs
would have to comply with the Ordinance.
Alderman Peterson opined the sign business is changing rapidly. He would support
grandfathering in current signage with the understanding that when signs are updated they
would have to come into compliance.
Community Development Committee Meeting
June 22, 2015
Page 3
Alderman Saim opined that he has no problem leaving things as they are, as long as when the
signs are updated they come into compliance.
City Attorney Smoron opined that business owners have indicated their personal investments
in the signage for their business. He suggested it would be a good start to grandfather in
current signage, then going forward, have the new rules apply.
Addressing an inquiry from Chairman Alderman Condon regarding line of sight issues, City
Attorney Smoron stated that safety issues create a different situation, particularly if there is a
hazard. Chairman Alderman Condon stated that she would like any unsafe signage addressed,
as well as line of sight issues. Superintendent Schwalenberg stated he is unaware of any
signage in town that creates a line of sight problem.
Responding to an inquiry from Chairman Alderman Condon regarding compliance of the
ordinance by new property owners, Attorney Smoron indicated adjudication would be more
enforceable than citations for non-compliance.
City Administrator Morefield recommended that vacant property with non -conforming signs
be addressed. Alderman Peterson suggested permitting vacant property owners 120-days to
come into compliance. Chairman Alderman Condon indicated she would support 90-days for
compliance.
It was the consensus of the Committee to direct Staff to draft an Ordinance for presentation
to full Council grandfathering current signage with the understanding that if the business
changes hands or comes under new ownership, the signage must comply with the Ordinance.
Chairman Alderman Condon thanked everyone for taking the time to attend the meeting and
contribute to the process.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING
October 1, 2012
ORDINANCE AUTHORIZING AMENDING THE SIGN ORDINANCE AND MOVING THE SIGN
ORDINANCE FROM THE ZONING ORDINANCE TO THE MUNICIPAL CODE
Deputy City Administrator Martin stated the Community Development Committee has looked
at signs over the past year at three separate meetings and has recommended some changes
to various provisions of the ordinance. The major change is the extension of the non.
conforming signs provision for which the committee has recommended a 2-year extension
until August of 2015. Staff believes it would be an undue hardship on property owners at this
time to enforce the existing registration deadline in August 2013 and believes the best way to
proceed is extension of the amortization period. This would allow sufficient time for a series
of informational and reminder letters to be sent to each property owner regarding the
changes required due to the ordinance.
Deputy City Administrator Martin asked Council to eliminate the five foot setback for signs in
the C 4 district where there is no building setback. Additionally, the City's sign ordinance is
included in the zoning ordinance but all sign variance requests are forwarded to the City
Council. The Planning and Zoning Commission has no input on sign variances. Attorney
McArdle believes relocating the sign ordinance to the municipal code is a good idea since
zoning ordinances address the use of land, and signs, while they could be considered a land
use, should be reviewed independently and outside the purview of zoning.
Motion by Condon, seconded by Santi, to authorize amending the sign ordinance and moving
the sign ordinance from the zoning ordinance to the municipal code, as presented.

Absent: None.

Re: Non -conforming Signage
Dear [name]
In August 2006 the McHenry City Council approved amendments to the City's sign ordinance.
One of the updates requires all non -conforming freestanding signage existing prior to the date
of the ordinance be brought into compliance with new signage code standards no later than
August 2013 or an annual fee be paid. Below is the approved fee structure based on type and
height of signage.
Sign Type
Annual Fee
Freestanding Commercial sign < 15' high
5400.00
Freestanding Commercial sign > 15' high
$800400
Freestanding/billboard off -site sign
$11500.00
Portable Sign
$200.00
The City Council is acutely aware of the financial burden, relocation, height reduction or total
sign replacement, that will be placed on business owner and has reconsidered the 2013
deadline. On October 1, 2012 the City council approved an extension of the amortization
period for an additional two years until August 2015.
Over the past several months, non-residential properties were surveyed by City staff to
determine existing nonconforming signage and extent of non-conformity(ies) for each property.
nspection has revealed the freestanding sign at [address] is [state nonconformity] and is
required brought into compliance no later than August 2015. If you believe this determination
is made in error or the inspection results are inaccurate, please contact me at (815) 363-2170,
rschwalenberg@ci.mchenry.il.us, or stop by the Construction and Neighborhood Services
Department, located on the second floor of the Municipal Center (333 S. Green Street) and I
will be more than happy to sit down and discuss the matter further.
The City will be recording the non -conforming sign and registration fee requirement, against
the property, with the McHenry County Recorder, so potential future property owner(s) are
aware of the requirement and annual fee, as well as the impending 2015 deadline.
An additional follow-up letter will be mailed to you approximately one-year prior to the new
amortization deadline of August 2015.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation and please feel free to contact me at (815) 363-

Dear 1VIr. Schwalaszberg:
Please be advised the undersigned represents the owner of the above referenced praperty.
i have reviewed your letter and disagree with its analysis.
My client was issued a sign permit by the City of McHenry on August 25, 1989. The
City of McHen y approved the permit, drawings, and sign erection. For your
convenience I have enclosed copies.
To the best of my knowledge, my client has not changed his use of the property or the
characteristics of his' property that would require hint to bring his building up to the
current code requirements.

i appreciate that the Gity has changed its sign ordinance, 110weVe1, my client's use was
legal and in conformity at the time the sign was erected. Therefore, to impose a tax on
leis sign because it does not conform to the current ordinance is a violation of his legal
rights. My client is prepared to defend his position if this proceeds fiirther.
I #zlist this resolves the issue,

Dear Committee Members,
Sorry to say I will be out of town and therefore not able to attend this
evening's Committee meeting. Please accept the following as my input reference
the ordinance requiring compliance with the new signage code standards no later
then August 15, 2015.
My opinion is that adherence to the requirements or being subject to an
annual registration fee places an undue financial burden on property owners that is
totally unwarranted in today's economic times and dampens the spirit of economic
recovery our community so sorely needs.
As an example, properties that I have owned, including signs on subject
properties, since the 1980's and 90's would be effected. Existing signs were all
installed with valid permits and in accordance with sign ordinances at that time.
The signs have continued to provide identification and advertising for the
businesses occupying the respective commercial locations. It is interesting to note
that during the past 24 to 29 years I have not been aware of any safety issues,
accidents or problems what -so -ever caused by the placement of subject signs.
Commercial signs are very expensive to construct and install and
extremely expensive to alter once in place. There is no easy way to pickup a sign
and move it two feet or lower it by a few feet. Concrete pads need to be poured,
electrical connections relocated, sign faces redone, etc., etc. In many cases it is
simply not feasible from a cost and physical placement issue to alter an
existing sign. The alternative would be to construct a new sign. The cost no
matter what it maybe must be borne by the property owner as it is
impossible to place that cost burden on tenants who in many cases are just
hanging on dayAo-day trying to survive by competing with the maj or
retailers who have massive signage and advertising budgets.
On a personal note, I in all my years of property ownership have
never had as many commercial property vacancies as I currently have. In
past years if a property became available it was normally re -leased within
30 to 60 days. Today it can take a year or more and rented for on the
average half of what the rental rate was 10 years ago. Regarding my current
vacancies three have relocated outside of the McHenry area. They did not
close their doors and go out of business, they just felt it was a economic
benefit to leave McHenry. Imposing annual sign fees on top of the annual
increase in real estate taxes will bring the economic engine that the small
independent business hopes to ride to a grinding halt. Sometimes we fail to
remember that not only is the property/store vacant but also the employment
we have lost as every vacant property had people working there.
As an example since 2008, the year that most believe to be the start
of the economic downturn, real estate taxes on my properties subject to sign
compliance have increased as follows:
2009 8.77%
2010 5.57%
2011 7.35%
2012 5.38%
2013 2.83%
2014 2.45%
This results in a 32.35% overhaul real estate tax increase in six
years at a time when rents had to be lowered just to retain tenants. An
annual fee to retain signage that brings in customers who spend dollars here
in McHenry is nothing more, in my opinion than, an additional tax.
In closing I respectively request that the Community Development
Committee consider recommending to the City Council that existing
property owners be exempt from compliance unless a distinct safety hazard
is identified with the existing sign and provisions be added that if there is a
significant change in use of the property or the property is sold the signage
must be brought into compliance.
I feel that it is exceedingly more beneficial to our community both
from an aesthetic and economic standpoints to have thriving businesses with
sign two feet or so out of compliance then a community with vacancies
along it's major thoroughfares.
Please feel free to contact me should you have any questions or
desire clarification regarding any of my comments (815 482-2070),

Re: Existing Signage for 3433 antl 3431 W. Elm Sheet, McHenry
Dear Committee Members:
By this letter I am requesting that the existing Signage on the above -noted properties be
aRowed to continue. This building is over 100 years old. The current Signage on the property
has been there for well over 40 years. The leases for the building have always included the
existing signage.
Over the years, we have tried to maintain the character of the building and I have
enclosed a copy of a turn of the century photograph of the building, as well as an original pen
and ink drawing which we had done by Lori Wilhelm in 1986. Although it is not always
financially feasible, it is and always has been our objective to try to restore the appearance of the
building as much as possible to its original look.
We again are respectfully asking that the existing Signage on the property be left alone.
We would like that preserved, as well as to continue with our attempt to maintain and, to some
degree, restore the physical image of the building to that which it was at the turn of the century.
We request that the City adopt appropriate provisions to allow these signs to be exempt,
so long as we continue to maintain them. The signs are not dangerous and do not obstruct any
views. Hopefully, it is the City's motivation to encourage businesses to stay in the area and not
adopt regulations simply to generate revenue.
Yours

Dear City Administrators,
I would -like to thank you for the advance notice of the meeting you scheduled for Monday,
June 22, 2015 to discuss the City's sign ordinances. Unfortunately, I will not be able to
attend as I am out of town.
The Fountain Shoppes of McHenry was built in 1998. The existing monument sign on the
property was approved through the City's sign permit process that was in place at that time.
Therefore we proceeded and invested the money to have the sign erected. Since all sign
requirements were followed, The Fountain Shoppes of McHenry Monument sign should be
grandfathered in.
Imposing an annual registration fee just increases the operating costs to many commercial
properties that are already struggling to stay afloat in this economy. Not to mention the
exorbitant cost and financial burden which would be imposed to erect new signage.
I would also like to add that when the sign ordinance amendment process began The Fountain
Shoppes of McHenry, CM Properties was never notified of the proceedings. Never being given
an opportunity to share any opinions at that time.
Your strong consideration in grandfat.hering The Fountain Shoppes of McHenry's Monument sign
under the current ordinance would be greatly appreciated.

To Whom it May Concern,
Sign out
I am writing this letter as it regards to the city's non -conforming sign
ordinance. We have been notified by the city that our sign is not
in compliance with the new sign code (height in excess of 15").
Failure to modify our sign will result in an annual fee of $800. Our
original sign and any modification we have made to it over the years
were obviously done with permission from the city. Lowering our
sign to comply with the ordinance would place the bottom of the
sign 18" below ground level. Replacing the entire sign at a cost of
thousands of dollars is out of the question for us right now. I feel
that we should be exempt from this new ordinance.
This year we have spent over $125,000 resurfacing our parking lot
and $18,000 to repaint our building. We spend hundreds of dollars
to perform annual maintenance on our sign. We replace any bad
bulbs and keep it clean. I feel that we go above and beyond many
other local businesses in maintaining the appearance of our
property.
I would ask the committee to reconsider the enforcement of this
ordinance.
Sincerely
Steve Bjorkman

AGENDA SUPPLEMENT
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: John M. Jones, Chief of Police
FOR: July 20, 2015 Regular City Council meeting
RE: Amendments to City of McHenry Traffic and Motor Vehicle Code Chapter
13, Articles 7 & 8 relating to Restricted Roadways & Class II Truck Routes
and Weights and Loads
ATT: Ordinance
Background: Following is a proposal to implement a change to the City of McHenry Traffic
and Motor Vehicle Code Articles 7 and 8 of Chapter 13:
Starting around 2009, the McHenry Police Department began a program to conduct more
thorough truck enforcement. This program included the purchase of portable scales to enforce
overweight violations, as well as more training to specific officers to enforce laws directed
specifically at trucks. Through these enforcement efforts between 2009 and 2014 the truck
enforcement officers had 2,173 contacts and issued fines in excess of $279,000. In 2014 alone
the unit had 248 contacts and $34,843 in fines.
As a result of this enforcement it has been noticed that the local ordinance pertaining to truck
traffic is very non specific and does not provide the officers the ability to legally enforce them.
Following is a breakdown of Article 7 and Article 8 of the McHenry Traffic Code:
Article 7 sections 13-702 and 13-703 designates Orleans Street and Riverside Drive as "Pleasure
Drives". The purpose of these roads is to restrict business travel, and open the roads for "pleasure
driving" only. First division vehicles, and second division vehicles registered in Illinois as a `B"
plate as well as second division vehicles having business on those streets (i.e. school buses,
garbage trucks) may drive on those roads.
Currently, the roads are posted with notice that no trucks over 4 tons are to be on those roads. In
the ordinance there is nothing that specifies these rules. The ordinance and the sign do not
specify how the 4 tons is measured. Many common trucks, such as pickups, could be registered
over 4 tons or have a gross vehicle weight rating over 4 tons, but may actually weigh on a scale
less than 4 tons. This vehicle may or may not be violating the law.
Article 8 sections 13-801, 13-802 and 13-803 designate certain roads as "truck routes." The list
includes state highways such as Elm St. which McHenry has no jurisdiction over as far as truck
regulations. The list contains numerous city streets as "designated truck routes" but does not
specify what that means as far as types of trucks. Section 13-803 establishes West Street between
North Drive and Front Street as a "no trucks or buses" route, but again there is no definition of
what is excluded.
Article 8 section 13-804 prohibits trucks with "any single axle over 8,000 pounds" on Riverside
Drive between Elm Street and Pearl Street. Currently there is no signage advising of this.
Article 8 section 13-805 prohibits trucks when "gross weight on the road surface exceeds 8,000
pounds" on Martin Road between Illinois Route 120 and Ringwood Road between April 15 and
June 13.
All of these sections have become outdated with the Capital Spending Bill of 2010. With that
bill, all roads in Illinois became non -designated for the purpose of vehicle weights. This means
that all roads have a maximum gross weight of 80,000 pounds, a single axle weight of 20,000
pounds and a tandem axle (two axles next to each other) of 34,000 pounds. The current
designated and non -designated standard only applies to lengths of trucks not weights.
Our current industrial areas (Prime Parkway, Ridgeview, Dayton, Albany, Industrial, and any
adjoining streets) have no designation as Class 2 truck routes. This means that a semi -truck with
trailer has a maximum length of fifty-five (55) feet on city streets. A typical semi -trailer length is
fifty-three (53) feet, not including the semi -truck pulling it. A standard semi -truck on any of our
industrial streets would be over length.
This becomes an issue for liability on the part of the driver and truck. If that truck were to get
into an accident and was found to be over length, that company and driver could hold a higher
percentage of liability even if the other driver was at fault. By designating these roads as Class 2
truck routes, we can help reduce their liability, thereby making our roads safer and more
accommodating to businesses looking to locate in McHenry.
McHenry also has an oversize/overweight notification system in place which is currently
managed and run by the Public Works Division. When a company is going to operate a truck
outside the legal weights, they send a notice to the Public Works Division. These forms are non-
binding. With the current local ordinances in place, anyone found violating the form they filed,
or operating without notifying the City, is not subject to any enforcement action.
With the current oversize overweight system in place, there is no guarantee the trucks coming
down the city streets well over the maximum legally allowed weight have insurance, or any
indemnity with the city in the event they cause damage or harm to any persons or property they
encounter. There is no oversight to ensure safe travel, or to restrict a road they may travel on.
Many times the truck driver will choose the most convenient route for them, which may not be
the safest route for them to travel.
The companies that operate these oversize and overweight vehicles prefer to have a system in
place to obtain a permit from the local municipality. This ensures that they are on the same page
as the municipality to travel safely on the road, and that they will be able to travel to their
destination without any issues from local law enforcement or the public. These companies will
pay for these permits because they are aware of the damage they are causing to the roads.
Analysis:
The current ordinances are out of date and unenforceable. All of the roads listed as restricted do
not have the proper signage or wording in the ordinance to allow officers to enforce them. The
truck routes as listed are either roads that the City has no jurisdiction over (Illinois Route 120
and Illinois Route 31) or have no definition as to what makes that route a "truck route".
Article 8, section 13-801 designates Illinois Route 120 and Illinois Route 31 as the only place
where section 625 ILCS 5115-111(f) applies. This is outdated as the weight laws in the Illinois
Vehicle Code pertain to all roads in the City.
A review of the requests made to the McHenry Public Works division showed forty-eight (48)
requests in 2013 and forty-one (41) requests in 2014. Of those eighty-nine (89) requests, twenty-
two (22) of the requests were of legal weight and would not require any type of request to the
City to operate.
In looking at the 2013 and 2014 requests the average load was around 120,000 pounds. The
current maximum weight allowed on the road is 80,000 pounds. This means that that truck is
travelling down the local roads at 1.5 times the legal weight. Statistics show an 80,000 pound
truck is equivalent to 9600 cars travelling on that road. The City of McHenry has no system in
place to keep these roads in good working order after these large trucks have travelled on them.
Recommendation: If Council concurs, then it is recommended a motion is considered to
approve the attached Ordinance amending Chapter 13 of the City of McHenry Traffic and
Motor Vehicle Code to repeal and replace Articles 7 and 8 as presented.
ORDINANCE NO. MC-15-
An Ordinance Amending Articles 7 and 8 of the
City of McHenry Traffic and Motor Vehicle Code
WHEREAS, the City of McHenry, McHenry County, Illinois, is a home rule municipality

WHEREAS, the City Council desires to amend Articles 7 and 8, Chapter 13 of the City

replaced as follows:
13-801 PERMITS.
(a) A permit shall be required for the movement of any vehicle or combinations of
vehicles, that is non -divisible or is carrying a load that is non -divisible, while
operating on roadways and bridges within the jurisdiction of the City which
exceeds the following limits:
1. Maximum gross weight of more than 80,000 pounds;

(c) Permits shall be issued only in the name of a person, firm, business, or corporation
that owns and operates the transporting vehicle or that operates the vehicle under a
bona fide lease agreement.
(d) Permits for vehicles that are both overweight and/or oversize are valid only a half

issued by the Illinois Department of Transportation is valid.
(e) Permits are non -transferable and apply only to the permittee.
(f) The City may issue revisions to permits:
1. To correct an error attributed to the City;
2. To correct an error attributed to the applicant, discovered before the
move.
3. To adjust weights, dimension or routes as issued on the permit, before
the move is made.
(g) The permit, when issued, constitutes an agreement between the permittee and the
City that the move described in the application will take place only as described.
The permittee has the responsibility to report to the Police Department any
inaccuracies or errors on the part of either the City or the permittee before starting
any move. Undertaking the move is prima facie evidence of acceptance of the
permit as issued and its terms.
(h) The routing prescribed in the permit constitutes the sole extent of the authority
granted by the permit for the use of roads within the jurisdiction of the City, and
any vehicle and/or load found to be off route will be considered off route and
without a permit. Permits shall be in the drivers possession at all times unless
otherwise directed by the Police Department and presented upon demand to any
and all police officers for the purpose of inspection. Both electronic and paper
copies of the permit are acceptable.
(i) Any vehicle(s) and/or load found to be divisible will render the permit null and
void. The entire gross weight and axles weights of the vehicle(s) with the load are
subject to legal weights. It is the duty of the applicant to verify the non -divisibility
of the vehicle(s) before making application for the permit. The permit application
2
itself is prima facie evidence that the applicant confirmed the vehicle(s) and/or
load was non -divisible.
(j) If required, arrangement shall be made by the permittee to have the proper utilities
notified, property moved, bridge or highway analysis performed and completed in
advance of any permit movement.
(k) All movements under the permit shall be made in accordance with all applicable
federal, State and local laws, ordinances, rules and regulations.
(1) Permits are null and void if altered for the purpose of deception. The permits
issued under this section constitute the grant of a privilege by the City and may be
denied or suspended for such reasons as the City may deem rationally related to its
governmental interests including, but not limited to:
1. A permittee knowingly providing incorrect information in an application
for a permit;
2. A permittee, its agents, or employees operating on a permit which has
been altered for purposes of deception;
3. Non-compliance by permittee, its agents or employees with federal,
State, or local ordinances pertaining to the transport of goods or operation of
a vehicle engaged in the transport of goods;
4. Moving on City streets without a valid permit as required under this
section.
(m)All single -trip or round-trip permits are limited to movements on assigned routes
only.
(n) All quarterly or annual overweight permits are restricted to the following maximum
limitations and routing:
1. 12 ft. in width
2. 13 ft. 6 in. in height
3. 115 ft. in length
4. May not move across bridges or structures that are posted or listed as
such on the City truck route map.
5. May not move on a "no -truck" route that is posted or listed as such on
the City truck route map, without written permission from a member of the
Police Department.
6. May not use any City street as a cut-thru to avoid using a State, County,
or Township highway.
(o) These permits are subject to all standards of application set forth in 18-178(b),
except that the load may be interchanged provided none of the above listed
maximum weight and size dimensions are exceeded. Quarterly and annual permits
shall list the registration number and state for the power unit, and vehicle
identification number (VIN). The serial number of the power unit, and/or owner
