In addition, the project includes flushing and clean the 48” storm sewer. Through a series of meetings with the residents, it has been determined that an SSA for the purpose of funding the property owners’ share of the construction of the storm water system and funding long term maintenance of the stormwater improvements that serve the Area is an equitable means to distribute costs for construction and long term maintenance fees; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the provisions of Article VII, Section 7, Part (6) of the 1970 Constitution
of the State of Illinois (the “Constitution”), the County of Kane is authorized to create special service areas in and for the unincorporated areas of the County; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the “Special Service Area Tax Law”, 35 ILCS 200/27-5, et seq. (2003),
the County is authorized to levy and impose taxes upon property within special service areas for the provision of special services to those areas and for the payment of debt incurred in order to provide those services; and
WHEREAS, it is in the public interest that the establishment of the area hereinafter described as
a special service area for the purposes set forth herein and to be designated as the Cheval De Selle Special Service Area 1 – Venetian Way (or Special Service Area No. SW-43), of the County; and
WHEREAS, the Area is contiguous and totally within the boundaries of the unincorporated area
of the County; and WHEREAS, the purpose of establishing the Area is to provide certain special governmental
services (the “Services”) to the Area, which are unique and in addition to the services generally provided to the County as a whole. The Long Term Maintenance Services to be provided may include, but are not limited to the following: the operation, maintenance, repair, rehabilitation, replacement and reconstruction of any storm water detention and/or retention area, drainageway, ditch, swale, storm sewer or other stormwater facility; costs of design, engineering and other consulting services, surveying and permits, public liability insurance, and all administrative, legal and other costs or expenses incurred in connection therewith and with the administration of the Area, including the repayment of any loan or debt incurred for the provision of any of such Services.

Long Term Maintenance funds may be applied to repairs and replacement of the existing agricultural drain tile from the Venetian depression as located by Huddleston McBride Drainage Company with concurrence from the resident committee on private property or within road rights of way (prescriptive easement rights). The Long Term Maintenance Maximum Levy schedule is attached as Exhibit A. The maximum long term maintenance levy amount shall increase each year the Special Service Area is active by 1% to account for inflation; and
WHEREAS, it is in the interest of both the County and the property owners in the Area to utilize

WHEREAS, the property owners shall elect a drainage committee consisting of several property owners from the Area and the committee shall work directly with the County on Long Term Maintenance Services; and
WHEREAS, a Construction Project is also to be built and funded, by the SSA. The Construction
Project is defined specifically as the construction of a storm sewer from the depression north of Venetian Way, across Chateaugay Lane and connecting to the existing 48” diameter storm sewer. In addition, the existing 48” diameter storm sewer will be cleaned and jetted to remove accumulated debris. The project will be funded 50% by Kane County Cost Share and 50% by the homeowners. The homeowner share of the construction cost is estimated at $47,344.00 plus the non ad valorem special service area fee per Resolution 09-232 of $400. Financing for the project will be applied for through the County’s Recovery Bond Loan Program for which an interest rate of 3% has been estimated. If the low bid for the work is less than $94,688.00, the property owners’ and County’s share will be reduced accordingly to reflect the actual construction amount (base bid plus any change orders plus the non ad valorem set up fee and actual interest rate to be determined when bonds are sold). This sum shall be collected over a 10 year period after which time the Construction Project levy shall expire. Equal payments shall be made each year by the property owners in accordance with Exhibit A for the 10 year period. In exchange for a suitable permanent easement for construction, the three properties indicated on Exhibit A will have the construction levy for their properties reduced to zero. The cost-sharing arrangement is subject to approval by the Development Committee and the Cost-Share amount is subject to approval as part of the 2011 budget. In addition, the loan for the resident’s portion and Campton Township Highway’s portion (cleaning of Faireno Drive channel and re-setting of culverts not included in costs above) of the project is subject to approval of the Recovery Bond Loan Program by the County Board and approval of Cheval De Selle’s application for the loan. If any of these items are denied or funding sources are unavailable for these or any other reasons, the passage of the SSA by the County Board does not obligate Kane County to move forward with the project; and
WHEREAS, it is in the public interest that the levy of a non ad valorem annual tax upon all
taxable property within the Area be considered for the purpose of paying the cost of providing the Services; and
WHEREAS, the revenue from such tax shall be used solely for Services for which the County is
authorized under law to levy taxes or special assessments or to appropriate funds of the County, all of the Services to be in and for the Area. Approval of this SSA document subsequently provides for access to the drainage easements as shown on Cheval De Selle Unit 1 thru 4 plats of subdivision by the County within the SSA area, it successor and assignees for the purposes describe above; and
WHEREAS, said tax shall be levied upon all taxable property within the Area for Long Term
Maintenance Services for an indefinite period of time beginning for the year 2011, in an amount sufficient to produce revenues required to provide the Services, and such amount shall not exceed the amount as shown on Exhibit A plus 1% for each year the SSA is active and shall be in addition to all other taxes permitted by law; and
WHEREAS, said tax shall be levied upon all taxable property within the Area for the
Construction Project for 10 years beginning for the year the loan is recieved, in an amount sufficient to produce revenues required to provide the Services, and such amount shall not exceed the amount as shown on Exhibit A and shall be in addition to all other taxes permitted by law; and

AN ORDINANCE ESTABLISHING THE SAVANNA LAKES SPECIAL SERVICE AREA (OR SPECIAL SERVICE AREA NO. SW-42)

OF PROVIDING SPECIAL SERVICES IN AND FOR SUCH AREA
WHEREAS, a Final Plat of subdivision was approved by the County of Kane, Illinois (the “County”), for the Savanna Lakes Subdivision and was recorded on April 14, 1989 (Document No. 1967892); and
COUNTY BOARD MINUTES – March 8, 2011
145
WHEREAS, a drain tile, drainage channels and other drainage improvements were
constructed in accordance with the Kane County Ordinances at that time; and WHEREAS, the individual property owners, under Illinois Drainage Law, are obligated to
maintain the stormwater drainage systems and drainage easements within their individual properties. While there exists a Homeowner’s Association (Declaration of Protective Covenants 98K071607) in place for the maintenance of the ponds on lots 24 & 25 as well as the entrance monuments off Nolan Road, no authority exists for the HOA to collect dues for the maintenance of the storm water systems off of the public right of way; and
WHEREAS, Kane County has been working with the property owners to develop a plan
to replace the existing drain tile located in an easement south of Savanna Lakes Road. Through a series of meetings with the residents, the HOA has determined that it is in their best interest to utilize existing dues collected by the HOA to replace said drain tile south of Savanna Lakes Rd. with a modern drainage pipe and manholes that will be maintainable in the future using financing for construction through the Kane County Recovery Bond Loan program. This SSA is being proposed as the financial backing for the loan and to provide for a long term means by which the storm drainage in the subdivision could be maintained should the HOA dissolve in the future or if it becomes necessary to replace, improve or construct additional drainage improvements; and
WHEREAS, the HOA may utilize existing dues to payback the loan or request, at any
time, that the SSA be activated to make payments on the loan at which time a yearly levy equal to the annual amount of the loan payment will be approved by the County Board annually until such time as the loan is repaid in full. The HOA will be expected to make any loan payments that come due between the time of their request and the time at which the County receives the first levy. Likewise, if the HOA defaults on the loan payment, a yearly levy on the SSA will be approved by the County Board to make the annual payments on the loan until such time as the loan is repaid in full. This will include any additional interest resulting from any missed payments by the HOA; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the provisions of Article VII, Section 7, Part (6) of the 1970
Constitution of the State of Illinois (the “Constitution”), the County of Kane is authorized to create special service areas in and for the unincorporated areas of the County; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the “Special Service Area Tax Law”, 35 ILCS 200/27-5, et seq.
(2003), the County is authorized to levy and impose taxes upon property within special service areas for the provision of special services to those areas and for the payment of debt incurred in order to provide those services; and
WHEREAS, it is in the public interest that the establishment of the area hereinafter
described as a special service area for the purposes set forth herein and to be designated as the Savanna Lakes Special Service Area (or Special Service Area No. SW-42), of the County; and
WHEREAS, the Area is contiguous and totally within the boundaries of the
unincorporated area of the County; and
COUNTY BOARD MINUTES – March 8, 2011
146
WHEREAS, the purpose of establishing the Area is to provide certain special
governmental services (the “Services”) to the Area, which are unique and in addition to the services generally provided to the County as a whole. The Long Term Maintenance Services to be provided may include, but are not limited to the following: the operation, maintenance, repair, rehabilitation, replacement and reconstruction of any storm water detention and/or retention area, drainageway, ditch, swale, storm sewer or other stormwater facility; management, water quality improvements, aeration systems, landscaping, shoreline restoration, dredging, outlet repair and construction of the open space and ponds located on Lots 24 and 25; costs of design, engineering and other consulting services, surveying and permits, public liability insurance, and all administrative, legal and other costs or expenses incurred in connection therewith and with the administration of the Area, including the repayment of any loan or debt incurred for the provision of any of such Services. The Long Term Maintenance Maximum Levy amount is $250.00 per lot per year excluding open space lots 24 and 25. The maximum long term maintenance levy amount shall increase each year the Special Service Area is active by 1% to account for inflation and shall be available indefinitely; and
WHEREAS, it is in the interest of both the County and the property owners in the Area
to utilize the Long Term Maintenance Services portion of the Special Service Area as a tool to maintain and improve the storm water conveyance systems such that the life of such systems is maximized and the goal of such systems for groundwater control and flood protection is achieved; and
WHEREAS, a Construction Project is to be built through the County’s Recovery Bond Loan Program for Water Related Infrastructure Projects. The loan program outlines a 10 year term at a projected 3% interest rate. The Construction Project is defined as the replacement of the existing tile that runs from the termination of Savanna Lakes Drive in an easement south of the right of way to the Savanna Lakes pond on Lot 25. The proposed pipe will be relocated to the right of way under the road side ditch with concurrence from the Elgin Township Road Commissioner. It is noted that although the new pipe will be located in the right-of-way, the long term maintenance of the pipe will remain the responsibility of the 23 lots owners within the Savanna Lakes subdivision (excluding open space lots 24 & 25). The homeowner share of the construction cost is estimated at $25,000 plus the non ad valorem special service area fee per Resolution 09-232 of $400 and interest calculated at 3%. The Elgin Township Road District will be providing funds for the section of pipe within the ROW of Cross Creek Court and Kane County Cost Share is being requested for 1/3 of the total project cost. If the low bid for the work (as defined above), once the Cross Creek ROW work is deducted and the Cost Share amount is deducted results in a property owner share of less than $25,000, the property owners’ share will be reduced to reflect the actual construction amount (base bid plus any change orders plus the non ad valorem set up fee plus interest rate on the loan). This sum shall be collected over a 10 year period after which time the Construction Project levy shall expire. Equal payments shall be made each year by the property owners in accordance with Exhibit A for the 10 year period. The cost-sharing arrangement for this project is subject to approval by the Development Committee and the Cost-Share amount is subject to approval as part of the 2011 budget. In addition, the loan for the resident’s portion of the project is subject to approval of the Recovery Bond Loan Program by the County Board and approval of Savanna Lakes’ application for the loan. If any of these items are denied or funding sources

WHEREAS, the revenue from such tax shall be used solely for Services for which the
County is authorized under law to levy taxes or special assessments or to appropriate funds of the County, all of the Services to be in and for the Area; and
WHEREAS, said tax for Long Term Maintenance Services shall be available for an
indefinite period of time in an amount sufficient to produce revenues required to provide the Services, and such amount shall not exceed the amount as shown on page 2 plus 1% for each year the SSA is active and shall be in addition to all other taxes permitted by law; and
WHEREAS, said tax shall be levied upon all taxable property within the Area for the
Construction Project for 10 years beginning for the tax year that coincides with the first loan payment, in an amount sufficient to produce revenues required to provide the Services, and such amount shall not exceed the amount as shown on Exhibit A and shall be in addition to all other taxes permitted by law at the request of the HOA or as a result of a default of the loan agreement as defined above; and
WHEREAS, the establishment of the Area was proposed by the Board of the County of
Kane (the “County Board”) pursuant to Ordinance No. 10-254, entitled:

RESOLUTION OPPOSING A CERTIFICATE OF NEED FOR PROJECT 10-090 (CENTEGRA HOSPITAL-HUNTLEY, KANE COUNTY)
WHEREAS, Sherman Hospital and Provena St. Joseph Hospital are partners in efforts
to enable the health of our constituents, especially those in the northern third of the county; and
WHEREAS, Sherman Hospital and Provena St. Joseph have recently completed major investments in their facilities; and
WHEREAS, Sherman Hospital’s new $325 million medical center opened at the end of 2009 at Randall Road and Interstate 90, a location selected, in part, for its convenient access for McHenry County residents. Its specialty care services include advanced heart care, comprehensive cancer care and stroke care. Sherman Hospital is the Number 1 health care provider for nearly all of the communities Centegra is targeting, including Huntley; and
WHEREAS, Provena St. Joseph recently dedicated millions of dollars to improve its facility. The result of those improvements is a new four-story bed tower in the hospital with 99 private patient rooms. Beyond the services Centegra proposes to provide in Huntley, Provena provides comprehensive psychiatric and rehabilitation services and other specialized care; and
WHEREAS, both hospitals have capacity to serve additional patients and, in fact, need to add patients in order to operate efficiently and to service the debt associated with the building projects they just completed; and
WHEREAS, Sherman Hospital and Provena St. Joseph Hospital are major employers in the region, with combined employment of over 2,500 people; and
WHEREAS, part of our mission within our County Development and Community Services Department is the development and maintenance of land use and other plans for the county and the enforcement of such ordinances as they are designed to promote orderly growth of the county as well as the public health and general welfare, and to conserve the values of property throughout the county; and
WHEREAS, Centegra Health System is requesting a Certificate of Need from the Illinois Health Facilities and Services Review Board for a new 128-bed hospital in Huntley, just over the Kane County border in McHenry County. The new hospital will have all private rooms, a full-service emergency department, and non-invasive cardiology services; and
WHEREAS, the County believes that this proposal creates an unnecessary duplication of services. Northern Kane County and southern McHenry County already has 6 hospitals that serve the area and have a surplus of open hospital beds to care for more patients. Because of
COUNTY BOARD MINUTES – March 8, 2011
199
the I-90 access at Huntley, access to the Sherman Hospital and Provena St. Joseph Hospital is comparable with that of the site of the proposed Centegra hospital; and
WHEREAS, when the Illinois Health Facilities and Services Review Board approved the recent investments in facilities by Sherman and Provena, Provena and Sherman were required to serve the residents of the northern Fox Valley – including southern McHenry County; and
WHEREAS, Sherman and Provena are regional medical centers, and the hospital proposed by Centegra is a basic hospital providing limited services. Sherman and Provena both offer advanced heart care, comprehensive cancer care, and stroke care. If any patients needing advanced care were to arrive at Centegra, they would have to be transferred to a regional medical center such as Sherman or Provena; and
WHEREAS, with the economic downturn, the banking crisis, and the housing market crisis, current population growth projections for the northwestern portion of Kane County and southern McHenry County, such as those being promoted by Centegra, need to be adjusted downward; and
WHEREAS, State records show the demand for inpatient services in the region has been stable, with almost no increased utilization in any category of inpatient care from 2007 to 2009 in the areas within 30 minutes of this proposed hospital; and
WHEREAS, a CON is a “certificate of need” issued by the State of Illinois. A CON permits construction or modification projects to health care facilities. To obtain a CON, an organization must justify that a proposed project is needed and financially and economically feasible; and
WHEREAS, adding a hospital in Huntley would only weaken the regional health case
system in Elgin and the surrounding areas. There is not enough demand for Centegra’s proposed hospital. It could draw patients away from existing facilities and make it difficult for existing providers like Sherman and Provena to offer comprehensive care; and
WHEREAS, the unemployment rate in Kane County, while it has improved, is still high, unnecessary infrastructure and services could affect the viability of Sherman and Provena.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that herby the Kane County Board urges the rejection by the Illinois Health Facilities and Services Review Board of the requested Certificate of Need for Project #10-090 (Centegra Hospital – Huntley).
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Chairman of the Kane County Board is hereby
authorized and directed to transmit a certified copy of this Resolution to the Illinois Health Facilities and Services Review Board.

Chairman said that she is allowing the people signed up to speak on Resolution #11-84. SPEAKERS Mike Easley CEO of Centegra thanked the County Board for considering this project of bringing a full level trauma center to Kane County. He said he is very excited about it and this would service Woodstock and McHenry County. Harry Leopold of Huntley IL on his own behalf. He stated as a Village Board Member of Huntley the building issues have doubled and Centegra Hospital would serve the adult community of Sun City. He asked the Board to consider this and he is in favor of the Centegra Hospital building in Huntley, IL. Rick Floyd on behalf of Sherman Hospital in Elgin said he did not believe the area needed more hospital beds. Sherman Hospital has invested a large amount in the two Kane County hospitals already. When Sherman Hospital was built they took into account the service area of Huntley. Huntley is an affluent area and Sherman Hospital receives 30 cents on the dollar. He said a new hospital will have a negative impact. APPOINTMENTS Motion by Frasz second by Castro that the 911 Appointments be approved.
