PLANNING AND ZONING COMMITTEE MEETING MINUTES

February 22, 2012 The Planning and Zoning Committee of the DeKalb County Board met on February 22, 2012 at 7:00 p.m. in the Conference Room East located in the DeKalb County Administration Building. In attendance were Committee Members Dan Cribben, John Emerson, John Hulseberg, Ruth Anne Tobias, Pat Vary, and Jeff Whelan. Also in attendance were Gregg Larson, Steve Cecchin, Sharon Stewart, Roger Craigmile, Mel Hass, and Planning, Zoning and Building Department staff members Paul Miller and Marcellus Anderson. John Hulseberg, Planning and Zoning Committee Vice-Chairman, called the meeting to order and noted that all members except Ken Andersen were present. APPROVAL OF AGENDA Ms. Vary moved to approve the agenda, seconded by Mr. Cribben, and the motion carried unanimously. APPROVAL OF MINUTES Mr. Emerson moved to approve the minutes of the January 25, 2012 meeting of the Planning and Zoning Committee, seconded by Mr. Whelan, and the motion carried unanimously. PLANNED DEVELOPMENT - COMMERCIAL Mr. Miller reviewed the fact that the Planning and Zoning Committee had discussed at its meeting of January 25, 2012 the application by Randy Ullrich for approval of a Planned Development - Commercial. The subject property is located at 16847 State Rte. 23 in unincorporated Afton Township, and is zoned PD-C. The proposal was to allow the existing tenant on the property, New South Mats, to sub-lease the property as a vehicle and equipment storage and staging yard. The DeKalb County Hearing Officer had recommended denial of the request, on the grounds that the applicant had provided insufficient information to justify approval of a PD-C on the property. The Committee reviewed the application and the Hearing Officer’s recommendation and considered the applicant’s arguments regarding the costs of developing plans and constructing improvements to the property. The Committee voted to table action on the request to its meeting of February 22, 2012 in order to give the applicant time to either withdraw the application, or submit new information which would allow the application to be returned to the Hearing Officer for further consideration. Mr. Hulseberg noted that staff had received on February 14, 2012 an e-mail from Randy Ullrich withdrawing the application and asked Mr. Miller whether the applicant had submitted final payment for the application, and to elaborate on the current status of the application. Mr. Miller

replied that the applicant had made final payment. He added that the withdrawal of the application halts the review and approval process, and no further action by the Committee is required. Mr. Whelan inquired whether Mr. Ulrich’s withdrawal would affect his ability to reapply in the future. Mr. Miller replied that it would not. Mr. Hulseberg asked if staff would be sent out to conduct a site inspection of the property. Mr. Miller stated that staff had already been by the property and that most of the ComEd equipment had been removed. He added that staff would also be revisiting the site on to determine the status of the remaining equipment. AMENDMENT TO A SPECIAL USE PERMIT Mr. Miller informed that Committee that Gregg Larson, representing the property owners, had filed an application for Amendments to a Special Use Permit for the Stonehouse Park RV Campground. The request included a reduction in the number of cabins to be constructed, allowing for year-round use and storage of RVs and container trailers, and a revised construction schedule for use of existing structures on the subject property. The existing RV camp is located on the north side of Suydam Road, approximately 1,750 feet east of the intersection with Hyde Road, in Paw Paw Township. The property is zoned A-1, Agricultural District with a Special Use for an RV campground and agritainment use. Mr. Miller explained that the required public hearing was held on February 9, 2012 by DeKalb County Hearing Officer Ron Klein. The petitioner provided evidence, testimony and exhibits for the proposed changes to the Special Use Permit governing the RV camp/agritainment use. Changes which included: reducing the number of proposed cabins from 25 to six; dropping the eastern 15-acre parcel from the Special Use; implementing security and law enforcement recommendations from the DeKalb County Sheriff related to uses that draw large numbers of persons to the property; enforcing noise restriction hours on the property; a new construction schedule for proposed improvements; allowing RVs to remain on site all year but in use not more than 250 days per year; and dropping the Old Rollo School House from the Special Use. The petitioner asserted that the requirements of the DeKalb County Health Department would be met, that construction materials would be removed at the end of construction, that a storage area for portable sanitary units would be established and fenced, and that construction trailers on site would be removed. Mr. Miller explained that the reason the Amendment to the Special Use is needed is because the petitioner did not complete construction within three years of approval of the project as required by the Special Use Ordinance, and because of evidence of use of existing buildings for activities without the required ordinances to assure compliance with public health, safety and welfare standards. He also stated that staff was concerned that the new promises being made by the petitioner were like the old promises, which had not been kept, and noted that the financial status of the use was in question. Staff also questioned whether the petitioner’s proposal to allow construction trailers and RVs to remain on site year-round as housing for employees and

February 22, 2012 Planning & Zoning Committee Minutes temporary food service would be an improvement over the historic, unkempt appearance of the subject property. Mr. Miller pointed out that the Hearing Officer has submitted his findings and recommended approval of the Special Use Permit with a number of conditions. Key conditions related to providing proof of adequate financing by the petitioner, limiting the size and number of activities that take place on the property, imposing a no noise restriction after 12:00 a.m., and prohibiting use of the property for the various activities until all required County permits are issued. Mr. Miller added that if the Committee felt it appropriate, due to issues raised during their discussion of the matter, it could also send the matter back to the Hearing Officer to allow the petitioners to submit further information and to allow the public an opportunity to respond and comment on that information. Mr. Hulseberg suggested that the Committee address each of Hearing Officer’s recommended conditions one by one, but first opened the floor for any opening statements by the Committee members. Mr. Emerson noted that the neighbors weren’t happy and wanted to know how the petitioners planned to address their concerns. Mr. Whelan informed the Committee that he had attended a portion of the public hearing and that concerns regarding noise and traffic had been brought up. Ms. Vary noted that the issue is very complicated, but that the use was a desirable one and that she hoped that some compromise could be worked out. Ms. Tobias asked what kinds of events held at the park would draw an attendance by 4,000 people. Mr. Larson responded that they host a variety of events, such as last year’s Pagan Spirit Gathering, which drew people from about a half-dozen countries, and that they were currently in talks with an “ironman” style competition called “The Savage Race”, which regularly draws 3,000 to 5,000 people. Mr. Cecchin added that “The Savage Race” had been referred to them by the DeKalb Tourism Board, and that the 4,000 figure came from their efforts to see if they could accommodate such an event. Mr. Larson noted that in the past, they’ve hosted upwards of 250 recreational vehicles (RVs) onsite, along with numerous cars, and that the park still was not full, and that even with a 1,000 people on site, one could hardly tell they were there. Ms. Vary noted that she had counted only 75 parking spots and 5 handicap accessible spots, and wondered about the parking for larger events. Mr. Miller responded that the 2008 ordinance required the construction of a parking lot, which had been completed. He noted however that most RVs did not park in the parking lot, but within the grassy areas. He also noted that no requirement had been made in the special use requiring designation of specific camp sites within those areas, and that staff had no way to evaluate the maximum number of vehicles that could be accommodated therein. Ms. Tobias inquired whether RV camping was allowed without events going on. Mr. Larson stated that they had closed seasonal RV camping in the summer of 2009, with the exception of a

February 22, 2012 Planning & Zoning Committee Minutes few long term residences who were allowed to stay until 2010. He added that they don’t allow camping on the weekends, but if someone were to show up to camp during the week, they would not necessarily turn them away, but they are trying to get away from that. He also noted that three park owned RVs, which the staff stays in during the summer months, are kept onsite to allow for 24 hour coverage of the park. Mr. Whelan inquired about the reports of gunfire and the kinds of re-enactments that occur on the site. Mr. Larson responded that one of the original uses envisioned for the park was as a site for medieval, Civil War, and World War I re-enactment events. He noted that since opening, they had hosted groups a variety of battle re-enactments, and that he suspects that the reports of shots fired would have come primarily from the World War II groups, which used blanks and actual military vehicles and equipment. He stated that he believed they have had only three (3) events over the past three (3) years where shots were fired after dark. Mr. Hulseberg asked the Committee for consideration of the Hearing Officer’s recommended conditions of approval. Condition 1: that proof be submitted to the DeKalb County Zoning Department by the petitioners within 90 days that they have adequate financing in place to complete the improvements that must be made. Mr. Miller noted that the property had appeared on the Tax Sale list, and then been subsequently removed. A representative from the bank had attended the public hearing and made comments that raised staff’s concern about whether the park will be able to secure the necessary financing it needs. Mr. Cecchin stated that they had been in touch with various banks that would probably give then the necessary financing, however, those institutions were waiting to see the results of the proceedings before would commit to anything. He also noted that they were applying to a program through the USDA that could also provide them with funding, but that it would take time to receive an answer. Mr. Miller asked the petitioners if they feel that they could meet the condition, further clarifying that if they failed to provide such proof within that 90 days, the special use would expire and no longer exist. Mr. Cecchin responded that he believed they could, and understood the potential consequences if they failed to do so. Mr. Cecchin added that he had been informed by the banks that the types of loan they were applying for could take 60-120 days to process. He then asked if they could have up to 120 days, if the banks had not responded by the 90 day time limit. Mr. Miller noted that the 90 day limit had been suggested by the Hearing Officer and that the Committee could decide whether to go with 90 or 120 days. Ms. Tobias stated that given that the loan would have to be going through the USDA, that increasing the time limit to 120 days would not be an unreasonable. Condition 2: Compliance with the recommendations put forth in a letter from the DeKalb County Health Department (DCHD) dated February 3, 2012. Mr. Hulseberg asked the petitioners if they had reviewed the suggested recommendations. Mr. Cecchin and Mr. Larson responded that they had met with DCHD regarding the recommendations and that they would be able to comply with all of the suggested conditions.

February 22, 2012 Planning & Zoning Committee Minutes Condition 3: Compliance with the recommendations of the DeKalb County Sheriff’s Office. Mr. Cecchin noted that they had already met with Sheriff Scott, and that his recommendations were based on the steps they had mutually agreed should be taken to address the concerns that had been raised, thus, they had no problem complying with those recommendations. Condition 4: The bridge to the 15 acre parcel is not to be constructed. The petitioners voiced no objection to this condition. Mr. Miller noted that he had been given the impression that a footbridge already existed there. Mr. Larson replied that during the World War II events, a plank would placed across the creek, but that it is not a permanent structure. Ms. Vary inquired as to the reason for this condition. Mr. Miller responded that it was to discourage patrons of the park from using the 15 acre parcel which would no longer be a part of the special use. Condition 5: Limit the maximum number of people attending park events to 500. Mr. Larson stated that they would not even be able to stay in business with a limit that low. Mr. Cecchin added that most of their events have had at least 500 to 1,000 people in attendance, and that is with the park in its current condition. He expressed that when completed, it would likely draw far greater numbers. Mr. Hulseberg noted that Condition A of the 2008 ordinance (2008-15) allowed for 200 RV campsites, and asked Mr. Miller if he could elaborate on how that number related to the total number of people allowed to attend events under that ordinance. Mr. Miller explained that some discussion was had regarding limiting attendance numbers, but that no such condition was attached to the 2008 ordinance. He pointed out that the Hearing Officer regarded the petitioners’ proposed attendance maximum of 4,000 persons to be excessive, a sentiment with which the surrounding property owners appeared to agree. Ms. Vary stated that she felt that 500 was too small, and suggested a maximum of 1,500. Ms. Tobias asked if the neighbors could see into the property. Mr. Larson replied that only the Fosters (the immediate neighbors to the west) could see into the property, and that they were proposing to construct a fence along their shared property line. Mr. Larson noted that even when they have had upwards of 2,000 attendees on site, their presence was not noticeable, with all vehicles easily held onsite. Mr. Larson elaborated that when they applied for the 2008 ordinance, they had envisioned about 2,000 people, approximately 10 persons per campsite. He added that since then, they had approximately doubled the number of campsites they have and he would open to going back to a public hearing so that he could submit a plan showing the ground space, the roads, the campsites, and how many people could fit in each area. Mr. Cecchin also inquired whether they could possibly designate between a limited number of larger single day events (4,000) versus smaller week long events with RVs and overnight camping (2,000). Mr. Whelan noted that the Sheriff would like to be notified about upcoming events, and inquired whether the petitioners would be able to do so. Mr. Cecchin responded that they already did for all open, public events with an expected attendance of more than 500. Mr. Hulseberg inquired if they had hired any deputies for these events. Mr. Cecchin replied that it was one of the things they discussed with the Sheriff when they met with him. Mr. Larson clarified the difference between public events, for which tickets are sold and the sheriff is notified, and private events, such as weddings, which are policed by the people hosting the event. He added that their

February 22, 2012 Planning & Zoning Committee Minutes discussion with the Sheriff resulted in an agreement where the Sheriff’s department would be called in, if available to do so, to help police any large scale event, with the Park covering their costs to do so. Mr. Cecchin informed the Committee that the 2,000 person figure was originally reached after his discussions with the DCHD in the year 2000. He stated that at that time he was told the park capacity was based upon the number of available restrooms, and that given what they had available at that time, approximately 2,000 people could be accommodated. Condition 6: No loud noise, music, or shooting after midnight, and that the number of events featuring music or shooting be limited to eight (8) per summer. Mr. Hulseberg noted that in the packet submitted by the petitioners, they suggested that the shooting be limited from sunrise to one (1) hour after sunset, which was different from the Hearing Officer’s recommendation, and inquired whether this was discussed at the public hearing. Mr. Larson noted that he was fine with limiting shooting to daylight hours only. Mr. Miller noted that the Hearing Officer wouldn’t have an issue with further limiting the times for shooting, but pointed out that the time issue also addressed loud noise and music. Mr. Cecchin responded that the midnight cutoff time was also their own self-imposed limitation, and that they would have no problem with meeting that condition. Mr. Hulseberg noted that the suggested recommendation did not define what time period summer would include, which given the suggested limit of only eight (8) events per summer, could be significant. He inquired if it had been discussed at the public hearing. Mr. Miller informed the Committee that no specific time period was identified and that it was assumed that “summer” would included the time when the weather would be warm enough to be comfortably outside. Ms. Tobias noted that the limit of eight (8) such events did not seem appropriate, inquiring whether events such as weddings, which include music, would be included in the number. Mr. Larson responded that this was one of their main problems with this condition. He explained that when they had suggested eight (8) events, he had been referring to large public events, such as a ticketed weekend music festival, not smaller events or private ones, such as weddings. He stated that their large outdoor festival season typically runs from about June 15 to September 15. Adding that even though April and May are usually warm enough, the ground usually too soft for vehicles. Mr. Cecchin added that they defined a private event as one where a particular group essentially “rents” the entire park for just its members, like a family hosting a wedding, whereas a public event is one like a car show, where anyone not associated with the group renting the park could just come in and participate. Mr. Miller clarified with the petitioners that what they were suggesting in regards to this condition is that: 1). No shooting after dark, and 2). No more than eight (8) “public” music events per summer, to run no later than midnight. Mr. Miller pointed out that the Committee would have to decide if they would agreed with that suggestion or not. Condition 7: That a storage area for portable sanitary units be identified on the site plans. The Committee agreed this was a fairly straight forward condition and required no further discussion.

February 22, 2012 Planning & Zoning Committee Minutes Condition 8: That DCHD review and approve the existing well and septic system. Mr. Hulseberg noted that this issue had been addressed as part of the discussion of condition 2. Condition 9: That only vendors with a Class G Liquor license be permitted to distribute alcohol on the property. Mr. Hulseberg noted that the petitioners do not sell alcohol, but have allowed vendors to do so. Mr. Cecchin agreed that was how they operated. Mr. Hulseberg inquired whether staff would benefit from knowing when an outside liquor license was applied for. Mr. Miller replied that it would not matter much for staff, as the liquor licenses are issued by the County anyway. Mr. Cecchin noted that it was regulated by DCHD. Ms. Tobias asked whether a vendor with a Class G license has to apply every time. Mr. Miller stated that this is a condition of the license. In response to a request by Ms. Vary, Mr. Miller explained the Class G license, which allows liquor catering. Condition 10: That a privacy fence be constructed between their property and the Foster property to the west. Mr. Hulseberg reaffirmed that the petitioners understood that the allowable height for such a fence was six (6) feet, not the seven (7) feet they had put in their petition. Mr. Larson replied that they had adjusted their plans once they were made aware of the height restriction. Mr. Miller reminded the petitioners that a building permit must be applied for and approved before the fence is completed. Condition 11: That no activities of any kind or nature involving the public take place on the property until all of the above conditions are complied with and until all necessary permits have bee issued and until the ten construction trailers have been removed. Mr. Larson stated that they intend to remove the trailers, but had been delayed due to the cabins not being completed. He requested that the wording be changed to allow them to seek Temporary Use permits for the use of three (3) of the construction trailers for the Summer of 2012, and that they would remove any trailers not so approved. Mr. Hulseberg asked the petitioners how they proposed to address the remainder of the suggested condition. Mr. Larson claimed that if they were restricted from holding another event until after all six (6) cabins had been built, the business would fail, and argued that they were not vital to the operation of the park. Ms. Tobias inquired as to the purpose of the cabins. Mr. Larson replied that they would be available for use as accommodations for groups renting the park. Mr. Whelan asked the petitioners to clarify whether anyone was living in the trailers on the site. Mr. Cecchin responded that they had actually had two different kinds types of vehicles: RVs, which were used as staff accommodations, and construction trailers, which were used as temporary, one (1) or (2) night housing only. Mr. Miller noted that the ultimate goal was the removal of the trailers, but also explained that the petitioners could seek temporary use permits for the construction trailers to allow them to remain until the cabins are completed, and elaborated on the particulars of that process. Mr. Miller explained that the Hearing Officer’s intention with this condition was based in part on staff’s observation that the buildings and structures on the property had been used without permits, which raises public health, safety, and welfare concerns. Given the petitioner’s history over the past three (3) years, a history that included two (2) violations of that provision, that they

February 22, 2012 Planning & Zoning Committee Minutes be required to get all of their permits before they be allowed to do anything else. Mr. Miller observed that what the petitioner appeared to be saying was that if they aren’t allowed to hold any events until the work is completed, then they would not have the revenue to complete the work. Mr. Miller suggested that the condition could be modified to say that existing structures may not be used in any way for events until such time as a final occupancy permit has been issued for their use; this would also include receiving approved temporary use permits for the use of the construction trailers. He explained that this would allow the petitioners to still generate revenue by hosting events that would not require the use these structures. The petitioners agreed with this suggested change to the condition. Mr. Hulseberg noted that one of the examples of a large event mentioned by the petitioners involved the setting up of a “portable town” with a tower, and inquired as to whether that would require a permit. Mr. Miller responded that such an event is not something that staff would be required to permit. He added that the DCHD would oversee the food service and sanitary facilities of such an event. Mr. Larson stated that the Illinois Department of Public Health also oversees their operation. Mr. Hulseberg inquired whether the ten (10) trailers mentioned included the one used for food service. Mr. Larson replied that when he had prepared that site plan, he did not realize he needed to distinguish between the different types of trailers (RV, construction, and food service) displayed. Mr. Miller suggested that a condition be added requiring that a final site plan, subject to review and approval by staff, be provided before the next event can be held. Mr. Hulseberg noted that the Committee wanted to revisit Conditions 5 and 6, particularly the number of private vs. public events, the total number of attendees allowed, and overnight uses vs. daytime uses. Mr. Miller pointed out that the Hearing Officer’s language was fairly strong with respect to the prospect of 4,000 attendees and its potential impact on the surrounding area and the unincorporated community of Rollo. Mr. Miller recommended that if the Committee did plan to entertain the suggestion that the park be allowed to have 4,000 attendees for daytime events and 2,000 attendees for overnight/week-long events, it would be best if the matter were remanded back to the Hearing Officer to re-open the public hearing to consider that point and to allow to the public the opportunity to weigh-in on this condition. Additionally, if the Committee did opt to remand the matter back to the Hearing Officer, it would also allow public discussion regarding the suggested changes the Committee had discussed regarding the other conditions. Mr. Miller added that if the Committee did opt to establish a flat maximum 2,000 attendees any event, which would be significantly higher than the Hearing Officer’s recommendation, it would not be at odds with what was approved in the 2008 ordinance. Ms. Vary stated that she favored limiting the maximum attendance number to 2,000. Ms. Tobias noted that such a limit would be very hard to enforce. Ms. Vary verified with the petitioner that most of the events held in 2011 had not had attendance numbers greater than 1,500. Mr. Cecchin added, however, that last year had been the first time several of the large music events had been held, and that it was expected that subsequent years would see increasing numbers of attendees. Mr. Whelan inquired as to the maximum number of attendees to attend a single event in the past year. Mr. Larson replied that

February 22, 2012 Planning & Zoning Committee Minutes he believed it to be just under 2,000 for one weekend long event. Ms. Vary asked whether the park could even accommodate an event with 4,000 attendees. Mr. Larson responded that it could. Mr. Miller reiterated that the Hearing Officer was clear that 4,000 people would dominate and negatively impact the surrounding area. Ms. Vary voiced her opinion that the matter should be remanded back to the Hearing Officer for further discussion of this issue. Ms. Tobias inquired how far Rollo was from the park. Mr. Larson responded that it was approximately two (2) miles. He also added that the Fosters’ property was immediately to the west of the park, the nearest neighbor to the east was approximately 0.9 miles, and the neighbors to the north were approximately 2.5 miles. Mr. Hulseberg suggested a maximum attendance number of 2,000, which would be consistent with the 2008 ordinance, should allow the petitioners to acquire the revenues needed to meet the requirements that would be set forth in an amended special use ordinance. Additionally, if the petitioners prove to be good neighbors and successful, the petitioners could return to the Committee in several years to petition for an increase in that number. The petitioners were amenable to this suggestion. Mr. Hulseberg inquired if the Committee was fine establishing 2,000 would be for all events, or if it wanted to designate between public vs. private, and overnight vs. daytime. Ms. Vary and Mr. Emerson both agreed that 2,000 persons would be a good number. Mr. Cribben stated that the matter was very complex and felt that it should be remanded back to the Hearing Officer for further testimony regarding this issue. Mr. Hulseberg asked Mr. Miller that if the matter was remanded back to the Hearing Officer, could the Committee’s recommendations proposed changes to his language be sent back to him. Mr. Miller responded that he would compile a summary of the Committee’s suggested changes and include it as part of his staff report to the Hearing Officer for the re-opened hearing. Mr. Larson pointed out that the property was currently governed by the 2008 ordinance, which he understood had not been revoked, and inquired whether they were permitted to continue to operate under the that Ordinance while the current zoning process was underway. Mr. Miller explained that while they did have an approved Special Use Permit, the conditions of that permit had not yet been met. Mr. Larson added that if they were allowed to continue to operate under the 2008 ordinance, they would also agree to operate under the new restrictions discussed by the Committee. Mr. Miller explained that in the past the County has allowed uses that required a special use but did not yet have one, to continue to operate provided they were diligently seeking the necessary approvals, and that what Mr. Larson was suggesting would be consistent with that policy. Ms. Vary reiterated that she felt that the matter should be remanded back to the Hearing Officer to re-open the public hearing. Mr. Miller stated that the earliest the hearing could be held was the end of March, thus the matter wouldn’t be able to be brought back before the Committee until its April 25 meeting, which would mean that the County Board would not hear the matter until its May 16 meeting. Mr. Emerson inquired whether the Committee could delay their March meeting until the beginning of April. Mr. Miller answered that if the Committee was going to allow the petitioners to continue to operate under

February 22, 2012 Planning & Zoning Committee Minutes the 2008 ordinance, provided they abide by the conditions discussed by the Committee, a delay would not be necessary. Mr. Hulseberg opined that if the Committee was considering changing the proposed maximum attendance number of attendees to 2,000, the matter should be remanded back to the Hearing Officer. Ms. Tobias moved to remand the proposed Amendment to the Special Use back to the Hearing Officer to re-open the hearing and receive further information and testimony regarding the Committee’s proposed changes to the conditions recommended in the Hearing Officer’s original Findings-of-Fact, seconded by Ms. Vary, and the motion passed unanimously. Mr. Larson inquired whether his request to be allowed to continue to operate, provided they abide by the suggested conditions, was approved. Mr. Miller responded that was the case. MONTHLY REPORT The Committee briefly discussed the Monthly Report. PUBLIC COMMENTS Mr. Cecchin took that opportunity to elaborate on the operation of the park and a brief history of his and Mr. Larson’s involvement in running the park. He also introduced the Committee to Sharon Stewart, the organizer of the Pagan Spirit Gathering, who voiced her group’s pleasure with having the event at the park last summer and their desire that the park be allowed to continue to operate so that can continue being able to hold their event there. Mr. Mel Haas inquired whether any action had been taken towards raising Waste Management’s annual landfill renewal fee of $50. Ms. Vary responded that whether or not the fee would be raised would depend on staff’s review of the amount of paperwork and time is involved in processing the renewal. ADJOURNMENT The Planning and Zoning Committee is next scheduled to meet March 28, 2012 at 7:00 p.m. in the Conference Room East. Mr. Whelan moved to adjourn, seconded by Mr. Emerson, and the motion carried unanimously.

3

was not work the County could do with it’s own forces. Mr. Schwartz indicated the County does not have the updated equipment for such a project and if they were to use our current equipment, repairs would be high and it would probably take all summer to complete the project. Mr. Schwartz recommended award to the lowest bidder meeting specifications. Mr. Brown made a motion to forward this resolution to the full County Board recommending approval and that motion was seconded by Mr. Deverell. The motion passed unanimously. MFT RESOLUTION #R2012-14 - FOR 2012 COUNTY SEAL COAT PROJECT: The County will be utilizing Motor Fuel Tax (MFT) funds for part of this year’s seal coat project. The County Engineer’s estimated cost for the County’s portion is $409,220.00 and 55% or $225,071.00 of that cost, will be paid for utilizing MFT funds. The remainder will be paid from the Matching Tax fund. In order for the County to expend MFT funds a resolution approving these funds is required to be sent to IDOT for their authorization. Mr. Schwartz recommended approval. Mr. Cribben made a motion to forward this resolution to the full County Board recommending approval and that motion was seconded by Vice Chairman Augsburger. The motion passed unanimously. RESOLUTION #R2012-15 - ENGINEERING SERVICES AGREEMENT FOR HORTENSE STREET BRIDGE: Mr. Schwartz presented an engineering agreement with the firm of Baxter and Woodman to begin the design of the replacement bridge for Hortense Street in the Village of Kirkland.

RESOLUTION #R2012-19 – LOCAL AGENCY AGREEMENT FOR SOMONAUK ROAD RESURFACE PROJECT SECTION 10-00176-01-RS: The County will be utilizing Federal funds to complete the resurfacing of 5.302 miles of Somonauk Road from Chicago Road south to Illinois Route 34. This project calls for a 1” leveling binder followed by a 1 ¼” lift of surface course. The estimated cost of this project is $796,000.00 and the County’s portion will be $159,200.00. Mr. Foster inquired how much more would be required to upgrade this section of road to an 80,000 pound truck route and if we were close why were we not doing so at this time. Mr. Schwartz stated he did not have those figures in front of him but would provide them to the Committee. Mr. Cribben was concerned that this project not happen the week after Labor Day as this road would see heavy fair traffic during that time. Intersection improvements would not be required if we were to upgrade this road to an 80,000 pound road using our matching funds; however the County would very likely consider doing so if at all possible. If Truck Access Route Program (TARP) funds were utilized for this project intersection upgrades would be required allowing for the safe turning movement of truck traffic. Vice Chairman Augsburger made a motion to forward this resolution to the full County Board recommending approval and that motion was seconded by Mr. Cribben. The motion passed unanimously. CHAIRMAN’S COMMENTS: Chairman Gudmunson had no comments at this time. COUNTY ENGINEER’S COMMENTS: Mr. Schwartz commented on the Health Facility Parking Lot project. The Highway Department is doing the survey work and will be overseeing the project once it is underway. The parking lot is needed to be resurfaced to eliminate the birdbaths (pooling of water) on the parking surface. Residents are required to park and walk some distance to these buildings and pooling water causes ice build-up in the winter and presents a safety concern to visitors at those facilities. This project will improve the drainage of the parking lot and hopefully remove the birdbaths. The Keslinger Road Bridge saga continues. During February the two companies involved were instructed to file a written response to the County’s Complaint, that has been filed by March 8, 2012. During April all parties will meet with the assigned Judge to schedule the events for trial. The ComEd transmission line upgrade project began in DeKalb County on Tuesday February 28, 2012. They will be working east to west. The five affected Road Commissioners and the County have a road agreement with ComEd to repair any road that may be damaged by the increase in truck traffic this project will produce. It is an agreement that everyone is comfortable with. ComEd is scheduled to have the

5

towers in DeKalb County raised by March 17, 2012. With the spring thaw/freeze cycle still in process there remains concern over how well the gravel roads will hold up. Mr. Schwartz gave a brief presentation on what the Road Commissioners were dealing with and how well Lasher Road was holding up under the truck traffic. Soft spots were appearing in the road way as well as rutting along the shoulders. Road Commissioners will inform ComEd of any repairs they believe will need to be made to their roads and repairs will need to be completed by the end of May. Mr. Schwartz stated the postings will remain on County Roads. The latest probes found frosts levels at one to three inches along the side of the roads. Therefore, there is still frost under the roads. ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: Mr. Brown stated he had received complaints concerning Plank Road during the last snow event on February 24, 2012. Mr. Schwartz was aware of the concerns and reminded the Committee of the Department’s limitations during certain snow events, especially one that includes high winds. Mr. Schwartz reminded everyone to slow down and be patient during these snow events. ADJOURNMENT: Chair Gudmunson asked if there was anything further that needed to be discussed and hearing none asked for a motion to adjourn. A motion was made by Vice Chair Augsburger and seconded by Mr. Cribben to adjourn. The motion passed unanimously and the March 1, 2012 meeting was adjourned at 7:30pm. Respectfully Submitted, John Gudmunson Chairperson

HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES COMMITTEE

MINUTES

MARCH 5, 2012

The Health and Human Services Committee of the DeKalb County Board, met on Monday, March 5, 2012 @ 6:30p.m. in the Administration Building’s Conference Room East. Chairman Stoddard called the meeting to order. Members present were Ms. Allen, Ms. DeFauw, Mr. Metzger, Sr., and Mr. Tyson. Mr. Emerson was absent. Others present were Linda Mosser, Donna Moulton and Cathy Anderson.

APPROVAL OF THE MINUTES

It was moved by Mr. Metzger, Sr., seconded by Ms. DeFauw, and carried unanimously to approve the minutes from February 2012.

APPROVAL OF THE AGENDA

It was moved by Ms. Allen, seconded by Mr. Tyson, and carried unanimously to approve the agenda.

NURSING & REHAB CENTER UPDATE – MS. CATHY ANDERSON

Ms. Cathy Anderson, day-to-day Operations Director of the DeKalb County Rehab and Nursing Center, gave a brief update to the committee regarding her department. Ms. Anderson said that the census numbers are down by 2.5% from last year. The bed count is down from 179 beds to 175 beds this year because more and more people are being hospitalized. Midwest Orthopedics has developed a program for joint replacements. The goal for this program is to get the patient home after the operation so they don’t need to go to a rehab and nursing center any longer, therefore, their orthopedic referral numbers are down at the County’s Rehab and Nursing Center.

Medicare A keeps the Rehab and Nursing Center afloat. Medicaid pays $122.50 a day when costs at the Rehab and Nursing Center are $200.00 a day. They were 9 months behind in their payments to the Rehab and Nursing Center too. Ms. Anderson did ask for the Center to be placed on the Expedited Payment Program with Medicaid and so far the state is currently about 2 months behind in payments. The Center has received a $245,000 payment and a $772.00 payment so far.

The committee thanked Ms. Anderson for her report.

SAFE PASSAGE UPDATE – MS. LINDA MOSSER, DIRECTOR

Ms. Linda Mosser, Director of Safe Passage, gave a brief update to the committee regarding her office. Ms. Mosser said that the domestic violence program at Safe Passage is the largest program at Safe Passage. Their emergency shelter does not turn away people. The Illinois Coalition Against Domestic Violence said that Safe Passage is one of the top 3 agencies in the State of Illinois.

After a rough two years, they are doing pretty well this year. They had gone through two rounds of layoffs and now employees pay for some of their insurance costs. They are still continuing services and employees are doing well. The State has paid Safe Passage and now the state is only about two months behind in payments. Safe Passage currently has 27 staff members. They’ve seen just under 1,000 unduplicated clients and they have served some seniors. They also have seen children. Their housing units are usually full.

The committee thanked Ms. Mosser for her update.

COMMUNITY SERVICES DEPARTMENT SENIOR SERVICES TAX LEVY PROPOSALS DISTRIBUTED – MS. DONNA MOULTON

Ms. Donna Moulton, Director of the DeKalb County Community Services Department, passed out the 2012 Applications for the Senior Services Tax Levy funding. The public hearings will be held in April. She is seeing a $60,000 difference in requests versus the funding amount for last year.

The committee agreed with the schedule for the two April dates for the Senior Services Tax Levy Hearings.

POSITIONS REVIEW FOR THE COMMUNITY SERVICES DEPARTMENT – MS. DONNA MOULTON

Ms. Moulton spoke with the committee about the request from last month for a new position classification review for one of her employees. She now has 4 permanent part-time employees working in her department besides Mr. Jess Collins. Ms. Moulton serves also as the Director of the Mental Health Board.

Before discussing this issue further, it was agreed that since Ms. Moulton’s review with the Mental Health Board will not be held until March 6th, this issue would be addressed at the next meeting of the Health and Human Services Committee in April.

ADJOURNMENT

It was moved by Mr. Tyson, seconded by Ms. Allen and carried unanimously to adjourn the meeting.

Respectfully submitted,

4

Chairman Anderson said yes, what is the issue?

Mr. Andersen said that he would like to add an item titled “Discussion on the County going Home Rule.” He would like to have the standing committees place this item on their agendas over the next two to three months and discuss the pros and cons of the county going home rule. The committee chairmen would then report back to the Executive Committee with the response from their individual committees. GENERAL DISCUSSION Mr. Andersen, Chairman of the Planning and Zoning Committee, said that they will be holding some public hearings in the near future. One of those hearings will involve Stonehouse Park and it will be held on March 29, 2012. He said that another public hearing will be coming shortly regarding Franklin Township and their request to possibly build a new building near their existing township building. Mr. Newport, Chairman of the Finance Committee, said that his committee is sending about 5 items to the full board for approval next week.

They also heard from Ms. Mosser with Safe Passage who said that her agency is doing much better this year. The position classification will be on hold for Ms. Moulton’s department, Community Services, until her 6-month review is finished with the Mental Health Board, of which she is director of that department also. Ms. Allen, Chairman of the Law and Justice Committee, said that she had nothing to report this month since her committee did not have a meeting in February. Ms. Fauci, Chairman of the Forest Preserve Committee, said that her committee will be sending 4 items to the full board for approval. They will be holding their committee meeting the night before the County Board meeting next week. Two of those items will be placed on the tables, that is, resolution #R2012-29 regarding the Somonauk to Sannauk Trail Lease Agreement and ordinance #2012-03 regarding the Dog Ordinance Amendments.

5

There was discussion on the lease agreement with Somonauk and the County Forest Preserve. The lease amount being proposed is for $1,365.00 a month for 2.88 acres for 15 years. Mr. Stoddard asked if an investment will be needed for this project. Ms. Fauci said yes, there will be. She explained that Somonauk will be maintaining the trail and the County Forest Preserve will be doing the improvements. It will be for a 15 year lease. Mr. Foster asked Ms. Fauci why it was for just 15 years? Ms. Fauci said that at first they only agreed to a 5 year lease that the committee was able to get it bumped up to a 15 year lease. Mr. Stoddard asked if there needed to any zoning changes on this project? Mr. Andersen said that there maybe. Vice-Chairman Tobias asked the committee if several resources that were mentioned on an Occupy Group brochure dealing with helpful information for people who are going through foreclosures could be mentioned on the County’s website. Mr. Todd, DeKalb County Treasurer, said that he has many of those helpful resources already mentioned on the Treasurer’s webpage on the County’s website. Vice-Chairman Tobias then mentioned to the committee that the Ad Hoc Jail Planning Committee will be meeting tomorrow in the Legislative Center @ 3:30p.m. to discuss an agreement with the City of Sycamore on the Jail and closure of Locust Street. Mr. Bockman said that he wanted to say that it has been very nice working with the staff at the City of Sycamore, which is very professional. Ms. Tobias said that what the committee will do is hopefully approve this resolution and then it will be forwarded to the full board for approval. Mr. Bockman said that the City of Sycamore then will take up this matter at the Council meeting on March 19, 2012 prior to our County Board meeting on March 21st. Ms. Pat Vary, Chairman of the Economic Development Committee, said that her committee heard from Mr. John Acardo, DeKalb County Clerk and Recorder, as he brought forward his Fee Agreement resolution last month. Mr. Brian Gregory, City Manager of the City of Sycamore shared some of their economic development information with the committee. Ms. Vary explained that each month she is inviting various economic development officers from the cities that

6

have one to visit with her committee. The City of DeKalb is coming tomorrow night for their March meeting and then next month she will invite another city. The Arts and Entertainment Group did meet in February and at the end of the meeting 7 people stepped up to for the new Arts Council and held their first organizational meeting right there and then. As time goes one, they will be informing Ms. Vary of their progress and projects to share with her committee.

DRAFT

MINUTES AD HOC COURTHOUSE EXPANSION COMMITTEE Meeting of January 25, 2012 Chairman Tobias called the meeting to order at 3:30pm. The meeting was held in the Sycamore, Il offices of Gilbane Building Company at 119 North Maple Street directly west of the beautiful new addition to the historic DeKalb County Courthouse. In addition to Chairman Tobias, committee members in attendance included Judge Kurt Klein, Circuit Clerk Maureen Josh, County Board Chairman Larry Anderson, county board members Ken Andersen and John Hulseberg. Also present were Tom Leonard and Gary Spivey of Gilbane, County Administrator Ray Bockman, Judge Tom Dougherty, Craig Mathey, and Matt Meives project architect from Dewberry. It was moved by Larry Anderson, seconded by John Hulseberg and carried unanimously to approve the minutes of the meetings of the committee held on November 16 and December 28, 2011. The committee asked Tom Leonard to update them on the scheduled completion date for the project. Tom said that substantial completion is scheduled for the end of June with occupancy now scheduled for mid-July 2012. The project has not been able to recover from the 12-13 working days that were lost in April to weather conditions. Judge Klein asked where we were with the generator issue? (The unit delivered is white and this is not the color specified) Matt Meives indicated that we are in the process of exploring and getting cost estimates on various solutions including enhanced landscape screening, field painting and replacement. Once the various costs are known a cost/benefit analysis will be done and the best solution will be implemented. A discussion of the issues surrounding the Children’s waiting room was held. Their current space will be converted to a security/monitoring room and a temporary location needs to be identified so that they can continue operations in the courthouse until their new permanent location is finished.

Judge Klein and Maureen Josh will work on a solution. Lt. Klein will be contacted to discuss timing of the security office transition as well. Maureen Josh reported that the furniture selection process is close to the original budget and is going well. The committee discussed the possibility of adding back the employee shower facilities that were dropped earlier if it didn’t add too much cost. Matt will look into this. Whether it gets added in now or provided for later it was agreed that it would be an appreciated addition. Ray Bockman reported that the actual and estimated contingency fund expenditures are now at $320K. The $500K budget should be sufficient to finish the project but there will likely not be much room for any large additions going forward. The fund was recently hit for $50K for audio/visual additions in two of the new courtrooms. This is half of the original estimate for those additions and will definitely improve courtroom performance and recording capabilities but has heightened the need to guard project reserves for future unknowns. Ruth Anne and Maureen will reach out to Julia who was unable to attend today’s meeting to continue the subcommittee planning process for the official opening of the addition. The committee toured the courthouse addition noting substantial progress since their last visit. They adjourned at 4:45 following the facility tour. Minutes taken by: Signed: ______________________ _________________________ Ray Bockman Ruth Anne Tobias County Administrator Chairman, Ad Hoc Courthouse Expansion Committee

AD HOC JAIL PLANNING COMMITTEE MINUTES

March 14, 2012 @3:30P.M.

The Ad Hoc Jail Planning Committee met in the Legislative Center’s on the West Side of the Gathertorium on March 14, 2012 @ 3:30p.m. Committee Chairman Ruth Anne Tobias called the meeting to order. Members present were Marlene Allen, Ray Bockman, Riley Oncken, Anita Turner, Lt. Joyce Klein and Sheriff Roger Scott. Others present were Jim Scheffers, Gary Hanson, Mr. Leonard, Dennis Kimme, James Matarelli, Matt Mieves and Ken Andersen. APPROVAL OF THE MINUTES Moved by Ms. Turner, seconded by Mr. Oncken, and it was carried unanimously to approve the minutes from September 2011. REVIEW OF RESOLUTION #R2012-25 INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT Mr. Dennis Kimme briefly reviewed Resolution #R2012-25 for the committee regarding the Intergovernmental Agreement between the County of DeKalb, Sycamore Public Library and the City of Sycamore to facilitate the expansion of the DeKalb County Jail. Mr. Kimme highlighted some items for the committee regarding the agreement with a PowerPoint presentation. Some of those items are listed below:

- DeKalb County gains access to and ownership of Locust Street between State and Exchange Streets.

- DeKalb County gains access to and ownership of the Alley between Locust & Walnut Streets.

- DeKalb County is permitted to move city utilities. - Sycamore receives Exchange Street between Main & Locust Streets; returns

to two-way street; widened; (parking adjacent to Legislative building lost.) Mr. Kimme said that some of the diagonal parking in front of the existing Legislative Center will be lost. Mr. Kimme then highlighted what happens to the County with this Agreement: - Turning radius at Exchange & Main will be enlarged.

- The County provides safety upgrades at corner of Exchange & Main Streets; and Sycamore will maintain it.

- The Library’s half of Locust given to County; assured access to county public parking.

- City of Sycamore equally shares costs of water main movement/improvement & related design services.

Mr. Kimme said that the City of Sycamore will be sharing the costs with the County on the water main improvements. He said that as far as the section of the agreement dealing with utilities the following items highlight some of the Counties duties:

The County will pay for: - Other utility changes, - Required plats, - Exchange Street and Alley improvements, - Signage identifying public parking.

The exterior building appearance on the south side will be equal in character to the rest of the building. The county will try to avoid moving any power lines on Exchange Street if possible. Mr. Ray Bockman said that he wanted to thank the City of Sycamore City Manager and staff for working with the County on this agreement. He said that they were very professional and a pleasure to work with. Chairman Tobias asked if there will be any additional costs to the whole construction project? Mr. Bockman said there will be some upgrade costs for the Road to Exchange Street that we had planned on initially, however, the budget hasn’t been changed. Mr. Leonard of Gilbane gave the current IGA estimate of a net increase of about $125,000. Mr. Oncken pointed out that in the agreement, page 6, item #14, last line, reads “any interest in that part of Exchange Street.” It should read “any interest in that part of Locust Street which adjoins the Library property.” Mr. Andersen asked what the costs will be to move the utilities? Mr. Kimme said overall it will cost approximately $1.6 million for total allowances and it is included in our budget for this project. It was then moved by Mr. Oncken, seconded by Ms. Turner, and it was carried unanimously to forward this resolution to the full board for approval. Chairman Tobias thanked everyone on the committee, the architects and Mr. Kimme for all of their hard work on the Intergovernmental Agreement and Design Work.

Mr. Kimme then reviewed the Design Update for the committee. He highlighted the following items: The Guiding Design Principles are:

- To insure that all boarded inmates come home - Satisfy User’s critical operational needs - Attain staff efficiency - Provide adequate core support services so that future expansion is housing-

oriented; uses less site footprint - Provide “add alternate” shelling options where necessary to insure the above

and maximize the use of existing dollars He then shared proposed design plans with the committee for the 3-story new Jail. The Finishing of the Schematic Design highlights are:

- To finish floor plans; establish engineering systems - Show future expansion options - Develop elevations - Develop sections - Prepare outline specifications - Develop project cost estimates - Develop jail staffing plan - Then wait

Mr. Bockman said that the waiting period will be hard and to remember that the bidding climate remains good right now, a year from now no one knows what it will be. Mr. Andersen asked Mr. Bockman how long do we have to wait yet on the landfill issue? Mr. Bockman said that he was informed that later this year we could hear on the status of the Second District Court of Appeals. The IEPA review is going along well right now, he has been told. Mr. Andersen asked the committee thoughts on where the money would come from for the operations of the new building. Mr. Bockman said that $1 million would remain in our budget to pay for staffing and operations. This is because of the return of our prisoners that would now be housed in our own Jail. The committee discussed briefly that any bed availability could be rented out possibly to other counties.

ADJOURNMENT Moved by Mr. Oncken, seconded by Ms. Turner, and it was carried unanimously to adjourn the meeting. Respectfully submitted, _________________________________ Ruth Anne Tobias, Chairman RAT:mcs J:Ad Hoc Jail Planning Committee Minutes from 03-14-2012.

Opening remarks by chairwoman Pat Vary in which Chairwoman Vary laid out the intent of the proposed organization. The county is hoping that it can be a catalyst for creating an Arts and Entertainment council in DeKalb County.

o The primary reason for this meeting is to select a committee to organize and structure said council.

o The hope of the board is that a council be comprised of the leaders of arts and entertainment in the community. Going forward, the council will be privately organized and maintained by community arts and entertainment leaders.

o The organizing committee will work out details of the council as well as its long and short-term goals as it sees fit.

o Ms. Vary suggested using existing organizational councils such as ones found in Rockford as the basis for structuring the County’s own council. As well as planning long term.

o Those in attendance were asked to be volunteers to help organize the council.

The Meeting was opened for general discussion o Ms. Debbie Armstrong of the DeKalb County CVB offered to use the

CVB’s resources to help market the council as well as any events it might host. Ms. Armstrong also offered to be the contact list keeper and update it accordingly. Additionally the CVB can be useful in finding funds for the council. The CVB, pending their own certification by the State, would be willing to put up 50% of the fund necessary to start the council if the council would be willing or able to come up with the other 50%

o Mr. Alex Nerad from the Egyptian Theatre expressed a desire for the council to help the community bolster existing arts and entertainment venues in DeKalb County. By doing so he hopes that cultural and entertainment gaps can be identified so that such gaps can be filled with outside resources.

o Mr. Bart Woodstrup, Visual Art Professor at NIU, suggested the council host a monthly nighttime art walk where local businesses would stay open

later and student artwork could be featured in the downtown areas with the use of projectors and other artistic mediums.

o Ms. Jenny Jeep Johnson, a Law student at NIU with experience helping to organize and work with the Milwaukee Arts Council, shared her knowledge on such organizations. And is willing to lend her experience and knowledge to a future arts and entertainment council.

o Ms. Anna Marie Coveny from the DeKalb Area Women’s Center offered her organizations facilities to the Art Council. They have a small stage, which might be suitable for shows as well as a meeting place for the council meetings.

o Mr. John Campen from Growth Space Labs wishes to see Chicago caliber productions be brought to DeKalb County. Currently he is working on getting Second City and other Improv Groups to perform in the County, with upcoming events at the Ellwood House.

DEKALB COUNTY REGIONAL PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES

January 26, 2012

The DeKalb County Regional Planning Commission (RPC) met on January 26, 2012 at 7:00 p.m. in the DeKalb County Administration Building, Conference Room East, in Sycamore, Illinois. In attendance were Commission members Derek Hiland, Rich Gentile, Ken Andersen, John Fischer, Dave Maroo, Martha May, Becky Morphey, and Brian Gregory. Staff included Paul Miller and Rebecca Von Drasek. Donna Nilles, Peggy Lowery, and Richard Boris were also present. 1. Roll Call -- Commission members Jerry Thompson, Cookie Aldis, Bill Beverley, Linda Swenson, Don Pardridge, Les Bellah, and Suzanne Fahnestock were noted absent. 2. Approval of Agenda -- Mr. Andersen moved to approve the agenda, seconded by Mr. Gentile, and the motion carried unanimously. 3. Approval of Minutes -- Mr. Gentile moved to approve the minutes from September 29, 2011, seconded by Mr. Andersen, and the motion carried unanimously. 4. Annual Dues -- Mr. Miller reminded the Commissioners that the Regional Planning Commission voted in 2007 to assess annual dues to its member communities. He explained that these dues are intended to offset the County’s costs of providing staffing, meeting room and materials. An invoice was sent in January, 2012 to each member community for the $500 dues. Dues are requested to be received by the end of February 2012. 5. Member Re-Appointments -- Mr. Miller pointed out that the following member’s terms were due to expire in April of 2012: Municipality Appointed Alternate Village of Lee Jerry Olson Martha May Village of Malta Jerry Thompson Anita Sorensen City of Sandwich Bill Beverley Village of Shabbona Don Pardridge Claudia Hicks

He asked these individuals to work with their city council/village board to forward in writing to County Board Chairman Larry Anderson the names of a representative to the Regional Planning Commission and an alternate. The names of the member representative and an alternate need to be received no later than April 3, 2012, so that the County Board Chairman can make appoints at the April 18, 2012 meeting of the DeKalb County Board. He said hopefully the same representatives can continue to serve and that, once appointed, the terms would be for a three-year period.

RPC Meeting Minutes January 26, 2012 6. 2012 Agenda Items -- Mr. Miller explained that the Regional Planning Commission has, since its inception, served as an important forum for communication, coordination and cooperation between the units of local government on issues that cross jurisdictional boundaries. Each year, several such issues are discussed and related information is shared. Issues previously highlighted have included: comprehensive planning; impact fees; zoning laws and regulations; annexation rules; stormwater management; groundwater information; freedom of information laws; GIS data; the Countywide fiber optics project; urban agriculture; and small wind energy regulation. The Commission has also sponsored workshops and seminars on subjects of interest to entities that have land use regulation authority. Mr. Miller suggested consideration should be given to what issues are currently taking place within member communities, with an eye toward sharing lessons learned from experiences and seeking input and ideas from each other. He provided as an example of a common issue is property maintenance codes: what are the different municipal regulations and procedures; what does the County do with respect to property maintenance in the unincorporated areas; and what are the best management practices and techniques for dealing with nuisance or problem properties? Another possible topic he suggested was planning and holding a “Zoning 101" seminar for elected and appointed officials (city councils, town and village boards, plan commissions, zoning boards) to educate the officials on the purpose and intent of zoning. Such a seminar might be timely given the upcoming elections in March, 2012. Mr. Hiland agreed that it had been over five years since the last “Zoning 101" seminar. He emphasized in those five years there had been a significant amount of turn over in the Planning Commissions and that the new members would benefit from a seminar in 2012. Mr. Maroo also thought a zoning seminar would be a good idea. Mr. Andersen concurred that a seminar would be useful. He suggested that the property maintenance regulations enforced by the various jurisdictions would be an interesting conversation for the Commission. Mr. Andersen also supported review of Zoning and Comprehensive Plans while the economy was slow to confirm that the regulations and plans reflect the priorities of decision-makers. Mr. Miller asked what issues were being discussed by each of the member communities. Mr. Hiland responded that one of the recent discussions at the City of DeKalb was related to chickens and urban agriculture. He said that the issue could prove difficult to regulate. The Commission briefly discussed the previous review of the urban agriculture topic at the June, 2011 meeting. Mr. Gentile replied that the City of Genoa had also recently revised their regulations regarding chickens and he explained that the City now allowed chickens on properties two acres or more. He also explained that a license would be issued to a property owner to allow for the chickens. The license gives the City the authority to revoke the permission if the chickens were to become a nuisance.

RPC Meeting Minutes January 26, 2012 Mr. Fischer noted that the Village of Kingston was working on a variety of projects including reviewing its UDO, submitting for an engineering grant, and reviewing its Safe Route to School grant. Ms. Morphey commented that the Village of Somonauk had also been submitting for grants to assist with energy conservation to replace windows and sewer plant upgrades. Mr. Hiland suggested that grant writing information might be a valuable topic for the Commission to discuss, such as where individuals are finding grant opportunities and how to write successful grant applications. Mr. Gregory detailed that the City of Sycamore was considering plans for the County Jail expansion and clean-up and vacation of alleys. He also observed that businesses appear to be doing some “tire kicking.” Mr. Miller felt that the topic of alley vacation might be an interesting topic for the Commission to discuss. Mr. Gentile explained that, regarding unimproved but dedicated alleys, the City of Genoa has also considered if these areas could be utilized as trails or paths which could benefit connectivity within the City. Mr. Miller suggested that “pedestrian infrastructure” could be an interesting topic for the Commission to discuss at a future meeting.. Mr. Maroo stated that the Village of Hinckley’s Plan Commission was working on an annexation request and finalizing the Safe Route to School’s improvements. Ms. Morphey offered that one issue being discussed in Somonauk was the requirement to shovel sidewalks for snow removal. She suggested the rules and practices related to snow removal, including what responsibility private property owners abutting public sidewalks might have, would be a good topic for review. Mr. Gentile responded that legal enforcement was one issue the City of Genoa encountered when researching this topic. Mr. Hiland mentioned that the Safe Route to School program may require that the sidewalks be cleared by adjoining land owners. Mr. Andersen observed that the shoveling issue was similar to the question of landscaping in the parkway. He suggested that these issues could be included in a conversation about property maintenance requirements. Ms. May highlighted many issues that the Village of Lee was working on, including the Village’s review of its Zoning Ordinance and possible water system upgrades. She asked if any of the Commissioners’ municipalities had ever installed a used water tower. Mr. Miller suggested that the village may want to contact an engineering firm to create an Request for Qualifications to write a grant for improvements to the Village’s water system. He added that often the engineering firm will add the cost of their services to the grant approval. Ms. May also inquired if other municipalities had experience changing street names. The Commission briefly discussed the challenges of renaming existing streets.

RPC Meeting Minutes January 26, 2012 The Commissioners also discussed the lengthening of buildout timelines for approved projects, and the possible paradigm shift from the demand for larger homes to smaller, more easily maintained houses. The Commissioners attributed these changes to the economy and the environment. The Agenda Items that the Commissioners had discussed for 2012 included the following items: a.) Organizing a Zoning 101 seminar to explain to elected and appointed officials the purpose and intent of zoning regulations; b.) A discussion regarding property maintenance regulations, including the requirement to shovel or maintain parkway landscaping; c.) A discussion about where to find and how to apply for community improvement grants; and d.) A discussion about the use or vacation of public owned easements and infrastructure. 7. Municipal Development Projects/Issues -- The Commission agreed that this was completed in conjunction with the 2012 Agenda items discussion. 8. Next Meeting Date -- The Commission agreed that the next RPC meeting would be on March 22, 2012 at 7:00 pm in the Conference Room East. 9. Adjournment -- Ms. Morphey moved to adjourn, seconded by Mr. Andersen, and the motion carried unanimously. Respectfully submitted, Derek Hiland Vice Chairman, DeKalb County Regional Planning Commission RGV:rgv P:\Zoning\Regional\Minutes\2012\RPCJan12.wpd

FOREST PRESERVE DISTRICT COMMITTEE MINUTES

February 21, 2012 The DeKalb County Forest Preserve District Committee met Wednesday February 21, 2012 at 6:00 pm at the County Administration Building. In attendance were committee members: Ms. Fauci, Mr. Anderson, Ms. DeFauw, Mr. Augsburger, Mr. Deverrell, Mr. Newport and Superintendent Hannan. Ms. Turner arrived after the meeting had come to order and Ms. Fullerton was absent. APPROVAL OF MINUTES Ms. Fauci asked for a motion to approve the minutes of the January 17, 2012 meeting. Mr. Augsburger moved approval, seconded by Mr. Deverrell and the motion passed unanimously. APPROVAL OF AGENDA Ms. Fauci noted there were a few changes to the posted agenda – a discussion of the Somonauk to Sannauk trail, the recent truck bid process the revised dog ordinance and Chronic Wasting Disease management needed to be added to the Monthly Reports and there would be the addition of an Executive Session to discuss land acquisition options. She then asked for an approval of the evening’s amended agenda. Mr. Anderson moved to approve the agenda, seconded by Ms. DeFauw and the motion passed unanimously. Mr. Newport clarified that no action could be taken on the dog ordinance as it was not posted on the agenda prior to the meeting. GENERAL DISCUSSION Mr. Hannan noted that, as usual, all reports are included in the monthly packets. He then handed out the annual year end budget amendments to the Committee for their review. He reminded the Committee that this is an annual budget balance process for review and approval of the transfers. The end of the year land acquisition balances and the wetland bank balances were also included in the handouts. He noted to the Committee that with the budget amendments the Forest Preserve District has forwarded a balanced budget to the Forest Preserve Commissioners. Ms. Fauci asked if the Committee had any questions. Hearing none, Mr, Newport moved to approve the budget transfers and amendments as presented, seconded by Mr. Augsburger. The motion passed unanimously. Ms. Fauci commented that she was pleased to see from the monthly packet natural resource report that there was a topographical ( and hydrological) wetlands survey being done for the future expansion of the wetland bank..

Mr. Hannan then began an update on the Somonauk to Sannauk trail. Ms. Fauci noted that an agreement had been drafted and given to the State’s Attorney for his review following the Committee’s earlier discussions. The State’s Attorney wanted to be sure the Village of Somonauk was sufficiently referenced in the document. There were some changes to that effect as well as a small change to the name of the Trust involved and the State’s Attorney Office ( John Farrell) approved the changes. She noted that the lease is a 15 year lease with very clearly spelled out improvements as well as responsibilities. Mr. Hannan commented that the Village of Somonauk will be applying for $10,000.00 grant from the DeKalb County Community Foundation and that the Forest preserve will be a partner to the grant. The Village will be responsible for mowing, maintenance and providing police patrols. Mr. Anderson highlighted a minor typographical error for correction and then asked about the lease costs referenced in the second page. He felt the 5 year average value numbers seemed very high. Mr. Newport agreed and they asked that this be investigated. The language was further reviewed, especially regarding the Farm Service Agency rental rate referenced in the document. Mr. Hannan will speak to Mr. Dewey to get this clarified and get back to the Committee. Mr. Hannan then commented that the $10,000.00 grant is intended to go towards the estimated $25,000.00 cost of the path construction. (Ms. Turner arrived) Mr. Anderson then asked if the Village of Somonauk will be fully responsible for the mowing, maintenance and patrolling. Mr. Hannan reiterated that they were. Ms. Fauci asked about snow removal responsibilities. Mr. Hannan responded that this will likely be treated as the other paths are without snow removal being done. Mr. Anderson asked if it were true that there would be no legal survey done. Mr. Hannan noted that he, the mayor of Somonauk and Mr. Dewey would establish the 20 ft, trail corridor property boundaries using the existing known legal points. Ms. Fauci then summarized the outstanding issues as Somonauk’s contributions, as well as the resolution of the Farm Service Agency rental formula used in the documents. Mr. Hannan noted that he would get the clarifications on questions and bring them to the Committee at the next monthly meeting. He commented that by that time the DeKalb Community Foundations’ grant processes will be well underway. Mr. Hannan then moved to the truck bid update. He reminded the Committee that in January a bid for a Ford F150 vehicle from Brad manning Ford was accepted by the Committee and Commissioners. However, he was subsequently contacted by Mr. Wilkerson from the dealership who had prepared the bid. Mr. Wilkerson noted that a

sizable error had been made in the bid price. Following that revelation, Mr. Manning withdrew the bid. It appeared that the bid had been prepared for a 2 wheel drive vehicle rather than the 4 wheel drive vehicle called out in the published bid specs. The bid from the State Fleet Bid ( Morrow Brothers Ford) which met all the required specs came in about $2,138 higher. Mr. Hannan commented that in the past, when a bid was negated or withdrawn, the Committee could go to the next lowest bidder and proceed from there. However, he noted that there had been some comments and questions whether that was the best approach in this situation and that the Committee appeared to want to have some discussions before making that decision. Mr. Newport asked about the text of the Manning bid and whether it matched the published bid specs. Mr. Hannan noted that the bid specs appeared to match those in the published legal document. Ms. Fauci noted that the question before the Committee was whether to accept Manning’s withdrawal of the bid or to proceed to force the dealership to honor their submitted bid. She noted that since this had gone so far into the purchase process before the error was brought to light, that it does place the Committee and the Board in a very awkward position. Mr. Augsburger noted that legally the Preserve could probably hold Manning to the bid as stated, but given that this is a local business and one of the sources for vehicle service used by the Preserve, that forcing that issue might not be good long term business. He noted that if the Preserve believed this was an honest mistake, perhaps it would be best to allow them to withdraw. Mr. Deverrell agreed, but noted that it seemed a very strange thing for a long-established dealership to make a mistake on. Ms. DeFauw asked what effect forcing the issue might have on the long term relationship between the dealership and the Preserve. Mr. Hannan noted that they do service their trucks at Manning, as well as having some work done at another local repair facility, Punk’s in Sycamore. Mr. Newport noted that there seemed to have been a lot of chances for Manning to have caught this mistake, but that he did understand the issue of maintaining good relationships with local businesses. Mr. Anderson noted that he felt this was extremely sloppy on Manning’s part and that a contract offered and accepted should be a contract honored. Ms. Fauci noted again that this is a very awkward situation either way. On one hand it does not seem good business to force the dealership to honor the incorrect price if it resulted from an honest mistake, however there should have been some checking done before the bid was submitted. Ms. Turner noted that perhaps when the mistake is brought to the Board, it should be noted that the bid processed was rushed a bit in light of the possibility that there would be no February meeting.

Mr. Augsburger noted that if he were in the situation personally, he would be strongly inclined to hold Manning to the quoted price. He noted that perhaps forcing the bid to be honored would be a good long term lesson. Ms. DeFauw asked if perhaps there was any basis for the man who prepared the quote to be confused because the bid opening actually did have two sets of specs for two different trucks being requested. Mr. Hannan noted that the specs were sufficiently different that this was not likely the case. Ms. Fauci asked if the Committee felt they were near a determination on whether to accept the bid withdrawal or not. Ms. DeFauw asked if there were any precedent for this or if this would set a precedent going forward. Ms. Fauci replied that there can be a statement added to future bid processes noting that once accepted, a bid cannot be withdrawn for any reason. Ms. Fauci also noted that legally there can be no “dealing” with the price at this time – the decision has to be between accepting the bid withdrawal or forcing the sale at the price bid. After the Committee settles on its recommendation, then the full Board of Commissioners must vote as well. Mr. Deverrell commented again that this is a local business and as a public body it might not appear correct to force the issue. Mr. Deverrell then moved to allow the bid to be withdrawn, seconded by Mr. Augsburger. Mr. Anderson, Mr. Newport and Ms. Turner then all abstained due to personal relationships with the Manning family. A roll call vote was taken with 4 “aye” votes and three abstentions. Mr. Augsburger then moved to accept the next lowest bid from the State Fleet pool, seconded by Mr. Deverrell. It was clarified that this was a bid from the Morrow Bros. dealership through the State for a price of $20,429.00. A roll call vote was held with 6 members voting “aye” and Mr. Anderson abstaining. Ms. Faunci then noted that the Dog Ordinance had been sent back to the Committee due to issues of confusion on the wording. She noted that it would be good to have some baseline expectations clearly spelled out for all the Preserve properties and then a specific calling out of exceptions that apply to the off-leash areas. Mr. Hannan noted that the first page of the ordinance was designed to do just that with page two of the ordinance referencing the off-leash area exceptions. Mr. Newport noted a concern that none of the Committee members had seen the final draft of the ordinance at the time a vote was taken. He commented that he feels the ordinance goes too far in some areas, such as the hours outlined for use of the off-leash areas. He felt that the hours should be expanded to sunrise to 8:00 pm daily to allow use of the areas before the Preserves officially open at 8:00 am.

Mr. Augsburger and Mr. Deverrell disagreed with extending use of those areas beyond the hours of operation for the Preserves overall. They noted that increased hours can equal enhanced stress on the wildlife in the area. Ms. Fauci agreed that concern for the resident wildlife does need to be a concern. Ms. Turner asked what would be the benefit of expanding the hours in these areas. She went on to ask what would happen to people who wandered into others areas outside the posted hours of the Preserve. Mr. Hannan noted that the local police patrols would likely ask them to leave the area after closing, but would likely be more lenient in the morning hours. Ms. Fauci asked whether the Committee agreed with the baseline conditions and noted there seemed to be a general consensus on those. However, there did not seem to be consensus agreement on expanding the off-leash hours. Ms. Fauci commented that the Preserves are sometimes considered to be land without regulation, but because they are publically shared lands the District has an obligation to have clarity regarding the rules covering the visitors to the Preserves. Mr. Hannan commented that the ordinance as written has been favorable with Animal Control and the Sheriff’s office. Mr. Newport commented that the issue could receive a final vote at the next meeting after being placed on the agenda. Mr. Hannan then began a report on issues that had recently arisen regarding Chronic Wasting Disease management and the IDNR. He introduced two guests from the IDNR, lead Biologist Frank Ostling and Lead Biologist and Deer Project Mgr., Tom Micetich. Mr. Hannan noted that there had recently been some email and phone contacts from local citizens after a recent article on the program appeared in the local newspaper. Mr. Hannan noted that in the 6 northern DeKalb County townships only 8% of the wooded acres involved in the Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) management program are on Forest Preserve land. The remaining 92% of the wooded lands are privately owned and any involvement by the IDNR is solely at the owner’s discretion. Mr. Augsburger asked a question on behalf of one of his constituents. He asked why there is not a check station opportunity during the late CWD season. Mr. Micetich noted that it is very expensive to run a check station and there is very little participation and harvest in the late winter season. He did note, however, that many small shops who do deer preparation cooperate with the IDNR if the hunter agrees to allow their harvested animals to be tested.

A letter was also sent to Mr. Augsburger and he passed it to the IDNR representatives for their response. Mr. Micetich noted that they would provide a response and would also copy the Committee on their response. One issue raised in the letter was an accusation that the IDNR staff practiced “caping” when doing their testing. “Caping” was then defined as the practice of taking particularly handsome or desirable antlers with an intention to prepare them for mounting and private display. IDNR responded that they do not. Mr. Ostling responded that the IDNR does leave bins out at some locations for those who wish to voluntarily donate their deer heads for disease sampling. However, if a hunter wishes to cape an animal they have taken, but still do a sample, the IDNR will work with them to get a sample without destroying the cape. Ms. Fauci asked if there were any way for the hunters to perform their own sampling. Mr. Ostling noted that while some samples might be taken successfully, they would still need to be sent to an official lab for certified results. Ms. Fauci asked if contact with the diseased samples could be harmful to humans. Mr. Micetich notes that after tests come back positive, if they know the hunters identity the IDNR does contact them and advise strongly against consumption of the meat. This is a recommendation of the National Centers for Disease Control. They then offer to reimburse the hunter for the processing cost of the deer, as funds allow. If the hunter agrees, the IDNR then picks up the deer carcass and takes it for incineration. Mr. Augsburger noted that that there is a lot of writing appearing that is pointedly against the program. Mr. Micetich and Mr. Ostling agreed that there is a great deal of misinformation on the IDNR / CWD program. Last years’ sampling indicated that there was about a 12% prevalence rate in some areas. He commented that it is important, given the transmission of the disease, to recognize that what happens to the entire state’s deer population is affected by what happens in areas like this. Ms. Fauci asked if they had thought of having any public relations assistance to counteract the misinformation. Mr. Micetich noted that tight budgets and other considerations do hinder efforts in that respect, but that there are people on staff assigned to perform those functions. Ms. Fauci asked if the deer density issue is the primary concern for hunters, that if the herds are reduced too severely, that hunting becomes too difficult. Mr. Micetich noted that it is important to understand that efforts at herd reduction are for disease management, not for the purposes of deer eradication as some accuse. Mr. Ostling then commented that Shabbona Lakes State Park has adopted mandatory testing for the bow hunting season. The samples taken there have been very good and overall made for a better sampling than when the testing was voluntary. The hunters in

that area also expressed that they appreciated having the sampling become mandatory, because it alleviated the peer pressure and stigma of appearing to be cooperating with the IDNR. Mr. Deverrell asked if Winnebago County had backed out of their agreement to cooperate with the IDNR and allow IDNR staffers to perform targeted hunts in their County. Mr. Ostling responded that this was true and that they are extremely disappointed in that decision. He noted that public pressure appears to have been the cause of that decision. Mr. Deverrell noted that he has some constituents who feel strongly on this and especially about the herd reduction activities. Mr. Micetich noted that hunters just don’t have the desire to take enough deer during their hunting activities to accomplish the herd reduction targets that may work to control the spread of the disease. CHAIR COMMENTS Ms. Fauci noted that she had recently attended a statewide meeting of Forest Preserve Commissioners in January and had received very strong supportive comments about the District’s support of the IDNR and their efforts. ADJOURMENT Mr. Newport moved to adjourn, seconded by Mr. Augsburger. The motion passed unanimously. Respectfully submitted, Julia Fauci, Chairperson Forest Preserve District Committee JF:kjr

Natural Resources Management Activities

DeKalb County Forest Preserve District

February 2012

Primary activities for the month of February included:

1. Orientation and training for GIS and GPS applications specific to forest preserve resource management. GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and GPS (Geographic Positioning System) are two key components of up‐to‐date management practices for Forest Preserve Districts and a myriad of other organizations that use geographic and navigation information. DeKalb County has a top‐notch GIS office that is a component of the Information Services Department. Their staff has routinely provided us with maps, aerials and other needed material, but “best management practices” in the natural resource management field now require that those of us who actually do natural resource management activities should be able to use GPS and GIS applications ourselves.

Luckily for us, Patty Ruback, one of our volunteers and a graduate student at NIU, got a research grant from ESRI, the largest provider of GIS software. One of her grant stipulations was that she provides free GIS training for a conservation agency! During weekly meetings, Patty has given us basic instruction in the use of free GIS programs for manipulation of digital data, as well as integration of GPS functions that meet our needs. (ESRI and other companies hope that by providing basic training and programs for free, we will eventually want to purchase their more sophisticated software.) As part of our training, Patty is also creating templates for trail maps for our web site. By summer, we hope to have a full array of new maps and be able to easily manipulate a broad array of digital data for resource management purposes.

2. Completion of Hoppe WRP surface pool excavation and field tile repair. Winter weather was still good enough in the first two weeks of February to finish the excavation and tile repair at the Hoppe WRP site. We worked carefully with the excavator to insure the NRCS (Natural Resources Conservation Service) plans were carried out. Excavated soil was deposited above the flood plain in a manner that will create a pleasant “knoll” from which to observe the newly re‐created “South Branch Prairie”; a wet prairie and sedge meadow much like what existed there 177 years ago when William Miller built his cabin.

3. Review and prioritization of 2012 resource management activities schedules. Terry Hannan and Al Roloff reviewed all 16 activities schedules and set priorities for this year. 2012 has already been, and will continue to be, a productive and dynamic year. Incorporating the improved GIS and GPS capabilities in to this process will greatly enhance it.

4. Invasive species control and Oak woodland management. The lack of extended periods with extensive snow cover has allowed for more opportunity to do basal bark herbicide application to invasive species under large Oaks and Hickories at the Potawatomi Woods forest preserve. Since the prescribed fire season has arrived early, it was good that the snow was not like the last few years. Two and one half acres were treated (this area held 56 large Oaks) in one management area, and two acres in another. This type of management reduces damage to the lower and mid level branches to the large Oaks, and helps them live longer and healthier lives. It better replicates original woodland structure.

Economic Development Committee Minutes

March 14, 2012

The DeKalb County Economic Development Committee met on Wednesday, March 14, 2012 @ 7:00p.m., in the Legislative Center’s Freedom Room. Chairman Pat Vary called the meeting to order. Members present were Bob Brown, Julia Fauci, Riley Oncken and Jeff Whelan. Mr. Metzger, Sr., was absent. Mr. Paul Borek, Mr. Mark Biernacki, Ms. Jennifer Diedrich, Mr. Pankaj Mahajan and Ms. Trish Gibbs with First Rockford Group, were also present. APPROVAL OF THE MINUTES Moved by Mr. Whelan, seconded by Mr. Oncken, and it was carried unanimously to approve the minutes from February 2012. APPROVAL OF THE AGENDA Moved by Mr. Oncken, seconded by Ms. Fauci, and it was carried unanimously to approve the agenda. CHAIR’S COMMENTS Chairman Vary said that she held a meeting on February 16, 2012 with people who are in the Arts and Entertainment sector trying to see if anyone would step forward to start the organizational process of an Arts Council. After everyone discussed items for a while, seven people stepped forward to volunteer their time to hold their first meeting as the organizing committee to start an Arts Council. She told them that the County was a catalyst to start the process and gave them a complete list that the County compiled of people interested in being included in the Arts Council. CITY OF DEKALB ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COORDINATOR – MS. JENNIFER DIEDRICH Chairman Vary then introduced Mr. Mark Biernacki, City Manager of the City of DeKalb and Ms. Jennifer Diedrich, the City of DeKalb’s Economic Development Coordinator to the committee. Ms. Diedrich shared a summary of economic development projects for the City of DeKalb. The first sheet is on industrial investments and the second sheet involves retail investments. The industrial investment page includes Nestle, Panduit, Goodyear, 3M, First Rockford Shopping Center, HA Phillips, to name a few. There were 1918 jobs created with these industrial investments, over $3,000 was the average incentive costs, and it took an average of 6.75 years for the City of DeKalb to recoup its investments.

Ms. Diedrich pointed out that the retail sheet does not show the retail sales tax information because they cannot share that information. The average number of years for the City of DeKalb to see these paybacks is 6.3 years. Only one of the projects had to have a clawback, which was the American Inn project. She then highlighted some of their projects for the committee. Ms. Diedrich noted that in April 2011 the City hired Economic Development Consultant Roger Hopkins. He has been a welcome addition to our staff and provides us with many years of experience. Ms. Diedrich said that an interactive premiere developments map has been added to the City’s website. The map showcases several of DeKalb’s most marketable properties. When you click on a specific site, another window pops up with a site information sheet which details the specifics of the property. She also informed the committee about certain new retail openings in the City. She said that Aspen Leaf and Oceans Tax opened on the west side of the City, Molly’s and Subway relocated into the former Amnesia building; the CVS Pharmacy is currently under construction; the National Bank & Trust construction on Lincoln Highway is progressing; the NIU Gallery 215 opened in Downtown DeKalb and the former Sawyer building is in redevelopment currently. A new updated McDonald’s is going up on the east side where they will be rebuilding an improved exterior and dual drive-thru lanes to improve traffic flow and avoid dangerous conditions on the highway. The former Bockman’s auto is being redeveloped into a Circle K. Tapalaluna’s restaurant is under new ownership; Cracker Jax has expanded into the adjoining storefront; Ross Dress for Less is leasing the former Border’s building; and the Aldi is in the process of undergoing a $500,000.00 remodeling project. Ms. Diedrich also stated that the City has been experiencing a renewed interest in several properties throughout the city and on Sycamore Road, including the vacated Old Navy store. She explained also that on the industrial front, HA Phillips has relocated their operation from South Elgin to the City of DeKalb into the Airport North Industrial Park. There has also been an uptick in interest on several of their available industrial sites including Park 88 and DeKalb Business Center. A much needed 80-room Hampton Inn and Suites has been approved to be constructed by Annie Glidden Road just North of Taylor Street. The planned operation of this new Inn is by the summer of 2013. The Egyptian Theater has replaced their seats and upgraded their sound system. Currently they are in the process of obtaining quotes for air conditioning. Ms. Diedrich also mentioned that in October of 2011 the City conducted a retail survey of its residents. The purpose of the survey was to determine what businesses, events, promotional materials, and policies would attract new tenants and a larger share of resident’s time and dollars to DeKalb’s retail

centers. There were 892 responses received, with 129 of those responses coming from NIU students. The results showed that the top three resident priorities revealed were for more dining, shopping and entertainment venues. Over 50% of respondents indicated that they would spend more at these types of business categories if they were added to the DeKalb market. Almost half of the respondents identified Olive Garden as a specific business they would like to see in DeKalb. They will be using this survey as a recruiting tool for new businesses. These are some of the highlights that Ms. Diedrich mentioned to the committee. The committee thanked Ms. Diedrich for her very informative report. RETAIL INDUCEMENT PROPOSAL Chairman Vary explained that Mr. Bockman had sent a memo to the committee members stating that the County had been asked by the City of DeKalb to join with them in inducing a retail tenant to occupy currently vacant space within the DeKalb Market Square property. The staff is recommending the Economic Development committee provide a positive recommendation to this request subject to the following conditions mentioned in the materials that Mr. Bockman provided to the committee. Those conditions include: the agreement be for up to 50% of cosmetic business sales taxes for 7 years - up to $153,125; to be eligible for a rebate, the cosmetics business tenant must remain in business and agree to submit ST-1 documentation directly to the City of DeKalb on a quarterly basis; if the store closes before the end of the agreement, the rebates will be terminated; and sales tax rebate is subject to approval of an amendment to the Intergovernmental Tax Sharing Agreement with DeKalb County in that DeKalb County share 50% of their sales tax revenues with developer First Rockford. Mr. Mark Biernacki, City Manager of the City of DeKalb, said this project is for a new Ulta cosmetic store to open by the Kohl’s store. This location is subject to an Intergovernmental Tax Sharing Agreement (IGA) with the County of DeKalb. Of the 3.00% County and City sales tax collected, 1.25% is collected by and share with DeKalb County. In the materials that Mr. Bockman sent to the committee it was stated that the City of DeKalb staff is working with DeKalb County Administrator Ray Bockman to amend this IGA so that the County will share taxes proportionately with the developer First Rockford. The total 50% rebated amount agreed with First Rockford Group is $153,125 over 7 years, averaging $21,875.00. The estimated maximum 50% City rebate equals $89,272 over 7 years, averaging $12,753 a year. The estimated maximum 50% County rebate equals $63,853 over 7 years, averaging $9,122 a year. This new store would use 11,000 square feet. Mr. Biernacki mentioned that the risk is totally on First Rockford and the Ulta store. If they perform as expected then they get the full rebate, if they don’t then they get less. There is no money being spent by the County or City.

It was moved by Mr. Oncken, seconded by Ms. Fauci and it was carried to forward this resolution to the full board for approval. There were 4 yes votes and 1 no vote, that vote being Mr. Whelan’s. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION UPDATE – MR. PAUL BOREK Mr. Borek gave a brief update on what is happening around the County with economic development. Mr. Borek mentioned and article that appeared in the real estate magazine titled “Real Estate BISNOW” that covers Venture One’s and Clayco recent purchase of the remaining acreage in Park 88. Mr. Borek said that this is tremendous news for DeKalb because business prospects are bright. We are fortunate the Citizens National Bank kept Clayco and Venture One as marketing agents on this property and now owners. They have a very strong interest in promoting this property. Mr. Borek said that there has been some interest shown regarding this property in the last couple of months. It is the first large tract of industrial property sold in 5 or 6 years since the downturn of the economy, Mr. Borek stated. The committee thanked Mr. Borek for his report. ADJOURNMENT Moved by Mr. Oncken, seconded by Ms. Fauci, and it was carried unanimously to adjourn the meeting. Respectfully submitted,
