Mark Anderson to the Civil Service Commission effective 4/18/2016, term ending March 31, 2019 AYES: Ald. Milissis, Van Roeyen, Shubert, Knight, Mazzuca, Maloney, and Moran (7) Motion carried 7 0. Former Alderman Mark Anderson was present and recognized for his continued service to the City. B. City Council No report. C. City Attorney South (West) Higgins - Annexation Update City Attorney Tappendorf provided a negotiation update regarding annexation of the property. She explained that the owners received a continuance until June 15 for the rezoning hearing with Cook County which provides time for her to renegotiate with the owners for uses of the property. When annexation notices were sent out, April 20 was the date indicated for the Park Ridge Annexation hearing. They agreed to continue to rezone; Park Ridge agreed to continue the annexation. After speaking with the owner s attorney today, Attorney Tappendorf hopes to have an agreement by May 16 so there would be no need to annex. Therefore, City Attorney Tappendorf requested the following motion: 2. Motion to table the Ordinance annexing territory pursuant to 65 ILCS 5/ (10 W. Higgins) to the May 16, 2016 meeting Moved by Ald. Knight. Seconded by Ald. Milissis. Attorney Tappendorf entertained questions from Ald. Knight, Moran, and Acting Mayor Maloney. She explained that she has spoken with the property owner s attorney about the proposed uses. No action would be taken before May 16 which might be in the form of a pre-annexation agreement. Ms. Tappendorf indicated that information will be provided to the Council about the proposed uses as information is received. The uses would be brought before the City and negotiated as part of an agreement. Acting Mayor Maloney and Ald. Knight expressed their concerns wanting the most protection possible. The City wants a use agreed upon that it could live with. The annexation agreement would set Page 2 of 13

3 the terms of uses which the City would allow. Annexation would give Park Ridge the most control; would then control the zoning. The second most protective would be to have an agreement which they agree to restrict uses on the property. To renege would be a breach of contract, a Circuit Court action. The owner has agreed to voluntarily annex into the City after they start beuilding which is a simpler and more streamlined process. The City simply adopts an Ordinance. Attorney Tappendorf indicated that this will all be included in the pre-annexation agreement. Once the property is annexed, Park Ridge would place the land in an appropriate zoning district. They would be allowed to use the property for what was allowed under the annexation agreement and whatever Park Ridge allows in the zoning district in which it is placed. AYES: Ald. Van Roeyen, Shubert, Knight, Mazzuca, Maloney, Moran, and Milissis (7) Motion carried Solomon v. Park Ridge (treehouse) Litigation Update Attorney Tappendorf provided an update on the treehouse case. The Solomon s filed a lawsuit for Administrative Review in the Circuit Court on March 28; the City has 30 days to respond. The City Attorney will be appearing on behalf of Park Ridge. She requested that any Alderman wanting more information about the case or legal strategies should contact her. D. City Clerk City Clerk Henneman indicated that Vehicle stickers went on sale April 15. The deadline to purchase is June 17. This year s sticker features the Farmers Market in recognition of its 25 th anniversary. E. City Manager No report. VI. Citizens Who Wish to Address the City Council on a Non-Agenda Item Dick Van Meter (1506 S. Courtland) commented on his dissatisfaction with the current direction of the Library Board. He believes the solution lies with the City Council. He spoke about dedicated individuals who put their time and effort into the Library referendum which passed having the support of 57% of those who cast ballots. The vast majority understood it as a motion to restore the Library to its former operation. However, he does not believe the Library Board s newest members know this. He indicated that he has suggested to Mr. Trizna that it is time for him to resign; Mr. Trizna disagrees. The Library should not be looked to make money. It should be run just like any other free public library. He believes the library has taken it upon itself to extort money from those using it for tutoring purposes. He is addressing his concerns now since interviews will soon begin for three seats on the board that expire at the end of June. He clearly stated who he did not want to have [re]appointed and also commented on Mr. Egan s physical absence at meetings. He asked that the Mayor s Advisory Board to remember the Library that was. Acting Mayor Maloney inquired about the interview dates and times, in addition to the number of candidates. Deputy Clerk Peterson provided the dates of the interviews, April 25, May 2, and May 23, from 6 pm 7pm; there is a total of eleven applicants. Acting Mayor Maloney explained that the interviews are open to the public which will be held in the Finance Conference Room. VII. Reports of Boards, Commissions and Committees A.

Approve the contract for Thermoplastic Pavement Marking with Superior Road Striping, Inc., 1967 Cornell Court, Melrose Park, Illinois and a purchase order in the amount of $40, / Approved by omnibus vote 3. Approve the 2016/17 GIS Consortium Service Provider Contract for services in connection with the GIS program with Municipal GIS Partners Inc., 701 Lee Street, Suite 1020, Des Plaines, Illinois Moved by Ald. Shubert. Seconded by Ald. Moran. AYES: Ald. Shubert, Knight, Maloney, Moran, Milissis, and Van Roeyen (6) NAYS: Ald. Mazzuca (1) Motion carried, Approve final reading of ordinance establishing a Storm Water Utility Fee and a Dedicated Fund for its operation Moved by Ald. Shubert. Seconded by Ald. Milissis. Public Works Director explained the changes. Because there is no division of residential properties, the original ordinance was proposed at a division at 1 ERU per residence. It has been adjusted accordingly with each residence having its own value. Motion to amend having the Storm Water utility fee start January 1, Moved by Ald. Mazzuca. Seconded by Ald. Moran. Page 4 of 13

5 Ald. Mazzuca explained, delaying the start date diminishes the amount of money that would be collected in sewer fees and also coincides with the City of Chicago s water rate changes. The process of the Storm Water utility would begin immediately; however, collection of fees would be delayed until January 1, Ald. Shubert questioned why this was not brought up last week. Ald. Mazzuca explained to Acting Mayor Maloney that a similar motion was brought up at the Committee meeting last week based on the excess balance in the sewer fund. Its seems like the acceptable solution according to Ald. Mazzuca. In response to Ald. Milissis question, Director Zingsheim would prioritize the usage of the excess funds with: RFP Master Plan; reserve money for projects as they come to fruition; and increasing the amount of sewer lining. Director Gilmore explained to Ald. Milissis that there is an approximate sewer fund balance of 2.5 million; monies from 2017 are factored in which are part of the FY17 budget. In Director Zingsheim s opinion, the best thing the City is doing is enlarging the Dempster pipe, already factored into the budget. Director Zingsheim provided an estimate for the amount of time needed for the study. He estimated 2 months for an RFP and about 6-8 months for the study; total time, 8-10 months. One of the qualifying parts of the RFP is to have enough staff working on the master plan to have it completed expeditiously. Acting Mayor Maloney questioned whether January 1 was too soon. Ald. Mazzuca spoke about the other pieces that need to be addressed which is why he suggested that date. City Manager Hamilton reminded the Council that Chicago provides its rates on January 1 but Park Ridge does not raise rates until May 1. Director Zingsheim responded to questions. There is no piping from the 1800 s in the ground but most likely the 1900 s. Sewer lining is a project that could use all the money in the sewer fund. He also spoke about improvements made, especially in the Burton and Fenton area where no further problems seem to exist. The ordinance has no incentives or credits since the price was much lower than what was recommended by Burke. Director Zingsheim indicated that the City would be able to analyze unimproved lots who currently retainage all of its own water by January 1. David Olman District 207 provided a letter from the Superintendent addressing the concern of placing undue burden placed on governmental bodies for its pervious and impervious landscaping. Concern was expressed regarding the adoption of the ordinance all or nothing provision with no credits or rebates for those storing. No credit is given for District 207 having its own detention and retaining 90-95% of its water. According to City Attorney Tappendorf, Section addresses storm water fee reductions if specific information is provided. In closing, Mr. Olman indicated that these fees are being passed along to taxpayers in another fashion. Gayle Mountcastle (Executive Director of the Park Ridge Park District) also presented the City Council with a letter. The Park District would like to have a voice at the table. They are the owners of the largest amount of green space in the City and could be part of the solution and work with the City on future projects. The concern is the credits when the fees go up. Some communities have waived or discounted fees to other governmental bodies. She asked that this consideration be given. Acting Mayor Maloney explained that he understands the concerns. He recognized the Park District for working with the City. However, when residents flood, they come to the City. It is the City s responsibility to solve the flooding problems. The City is trying to figure a way to fund the solutions. Ald. Milissis also commented on remarks made by the other governing bodies indicating they have other options such as cutting salaries or programs, or doing more with less instead of just passing the cost on to the taxpayers. Ald. Milissis indicated it would be a monumental task relining all of the City s sewers and there will always be a need. Money has been raised and it is needed but it needs to be used for the reasons it was raised. He believes it would be wrong to raid the sewer fund; and supports the storm water utility. Page 5 of 13

6 Ald. Van Roeyen does not believe funds should be pulled from other areas. He supports the storm water utility which is designed to cover the master plan and cover all related expenses. He does not believe that $33 per household is too much. Ald. Mazzuca recognized that money has been collected and built up in the sewer fund for various projects which is the reason why money was collected. The City has $3M dollars, $2.5M over its target balance for the sewer fund. The City could reduce sewer rates, do more projects, or create the master plan using these funds. The City has the money now to create the plan and move forward. Ald. Knight supports the amendment and a storm water utility but with delayed implementation. The delay gives the City plenty of time to look into various issues including other matters mentioned by the other governmental bodies. Sewer Fund funds should be used for the master plan. Delay will provide time for education which is critical and further evaluate and arrive at the right fee. Nothing would prevent a future budget amendment. In response to Ald. Shubert s inquiry regarding the ordinance and the dollar amount indicated within, Attorney Tappendorf explained that the City Council mentioned many projects and other work that could fall within the use of the funds that could be justified legally. Ald. Milissis questioned Attorney Tappendorf about the waiting period to go out to RFP. Ald. Moran recognized that it is all taxpayer money. It s just a matter of whether we are holding it or collect it going forward. He does not want to charge a new fee if it is not necessary. He wants it to be ready when it gets approved. It is not there yet. He will vote to amend. Ald. Milissis expressed his dissatisfaction with the obstruct any progress just when a decision is to be made. A different argument is always raised in an attempt to stop the project. He wasn t certain if it was political in nature. He cannot help thinking that it has been a well strategized plan to delay the process. He hopes he is wrong. Ald. Shubert was disappointed that this discussion did not occur at the last Committee of the Whole meeting. He commented in regards to the letters from other governmental bodies; this matter did not come up overnight, but rather was started about a year ago. He would like to see the level of participation and communication increase going forward so that the City arrives with a solution that is equitable for everyone. Motion to implement the storm water utility fee no sooner than January 1, 2017 and no later than March 31, Ald. Knight offered the amendment to address Ald. Milissis concern about a delay tactics or his concern about derailing the process. Ald. Mazzuca indicated the amendment also addresses a delay as mentioned earlier by Acting Mayor Maloney. Attorney Tappendorf had a problem determining the date that the fee would start to be collected. Ald. Milissis suggested withdrawing the motion if the process would move easier without it. Ald. Knight withdrew the friendly amendment. Ald. Moran withdrew his second. Acting Mayor Maloney expressed his thoughts, good and bad. Giving it much thought, he would like to use the money already collected to move forward with the plan. This is the way to mitigate flooding in this town. He will support the amendment. (Amendment) AYES: Ald. Mazzuca, Maloney, Moran, and Knight (4) NAYS: Ald. Milissis, Van Roeyen, Shubert (3) Motion carried, 4 3. Page 6 of 13

7 Dick Van Metre (1506 S. Courtland) told the City Council to move forward in so many words. Former Alderman Jim Smith (737 Forestview) believes the City is not being transparent and is attempting to hide the tradeoff. This should be part of the normal budget process. AYES: Ald. Maloney, Moran, Milissis, Van Roeyen, Shubert, Knight, and Mazzuca (7) H. Public Safety Ald. Milissis Ald. Milissis recognized the Police Department for its effort in releasing Next Door. He urged others to share it on social media and believes it is a great way to get Park Ridge residents to work directly with the Police Department. Chief Kaminski indicated that 600 people are already connected. Ald. Milissis also reported that he will be attending the Regional Emergency Dispatch Center quarterly meeting on Wednesday with Chief Sorensen to discuss its upcoming budget. I. Finance and Budget Committee Ald. Knight 1. Approve final reading of Ordinance modifying Article 11, Chapter 1, Section 9 of the Park Ridge Municipal Code (Public Services; Water and Sewer Systems; Rates and Fees) for FY17 utility billing rates Moved by Ald. Knight. Seconded by Ald. Milissis. Ald. Knight referred to the memorandum from the Finance Director in regards to the fund balance if the sewer rate was froze, roughly $205K. Motion to amend, maintaining the fixed sewer charge rate and sewer rate at the FY16 levels. Moved by Ald. Mazzuca. Seconded by Ald. Moran. The motion was made based on the significant sewer fund balance. Freezing the rates would offset the amount spoke about collecting initially through the storm water utility and will gradually deflate the fund balance. (Amendment) AYES: Ald. Moran, Shubert, Knight, Mazzuca, and Maloney (5) NAYS: Ald. Milissis and Van Roeyen (2) Motion carried, 5 2. (Main motion, as amended) YES: Ald.

Shubert. Seconded by Ald. Milissis. He made the motion based on feedback received from 5-6 residents. Ald. Moran sees no reason to delay the inevitable. People have been in that lot for a long time and it is the prime lot for commuters. The City should get fair market value. (amendment) AYES: Ald. Shubert (1) NAYS: Ald. Knight, Mazzuca, Maloney, Moran, Milissis, and Van Roeyen (6) Motion failed 6 1. AYES: Ald. Knight, Mazzuca, Maloney, Moran, Milissis, Van Roeyen, and Shubert (7) 4. Public Hearing on the FY2017 Budget Motion to open the hearing. Motion carried; voice vote No comments or questions were offered by the public. The hearing was closed. Moved by Ald. Moran. Seconded by Ald. Milissis. Motion carried; voice vote. a. Chairman s comments on the FY17 Budget Finance & Budget Chairman Knight s Comments on the FY2017 Budget Unlike in past years at this time when I have given a budget address that was far longer, I am going to be brief tonight. First off, I want to thank City Manager Hamilton, Finance Director Gilmore and the staff in the finance department for their work on the budget this year. I ve heard from others of the elected officials, and it seemed clear to me, that from the start, from a process standpoint and from the standpoint Page 8 of 13

9 of the work product we received, this budget process was a well-organized one. So Shawn and Joe, kudos to you and your staff and, as we have discussed briefly, I know you have more ideas about how to make the budget process even better and we ll all look forward to that. If there was a particular flaw in the process this year that needed pointing out it would be that for a second consecutive year we did not experience any sort of advance planning process presented or conducted by the City Manager and staff. When the City Manager presents his budget to the Council it is by far and away reflective of the activities that he expects to oversee for that year on a day-to-day basis. For these sorts of matters we don t really need the benefit of a planning session. I think we should be able to look to the City Manager and staff to present to us with their reasons for increases or decreases in day-to-day programs and expenses, some of which we can and should debate and, which we will ultimately pass as presented or as maybe slightly amended. This is as we have done this year and in the past and it should be fairly routine. On the other hand, if in the City Manager s budget we are being presented with significant new programs, significant changes to existing programs, headcount changes which often follow program changes, or changes (whether additions or deletions) to capital projects of any significant magnitude, then those new or altered programs should be previewed well in advance with the elected officials who will ultimately vote to approve the budget. To me this is the primary reason the City Manager and staff should conduct a planning session well in advance of the elected officials receiving the City Manager s initial budget. I think this should seem obvious. I trust that the City Manager understands clearly the need for a FY2018 planning process and I expect we will be asked soon to reserve time for that. If it does nothing else such a planning session will provide the City Manager, staff and a majority of us elected officials with a chance to be sure we are on the same page with any significant new or altered programs or initiatives. And with this budget season behind us I think the benefit of that should be obvious to all of us. Those are my comments and now I d ask if anyone else has any comments; otherwise we can go to entertaining any changes or amendments to the budget and then passing the budget. Thank you. ### Ald. Mazzuca indicated that he made several comments on the budget and does not believe there is an amendment or series of amendments that could fix it in his opinion. He believes there is too much excess within the budget along in addition to ignorance to the council policy statement and strategic planning. He recognized the Finance Department for the support materials which has improved. In his opinion, this does not outweigh missed opportunities or ignored policies. He will not support approval of the budget. b. Changes/Amendments to the FY17 Budget Ald. Knight opened the floor to changes and/or amendments. Motion to amend the Police Social Worker line item budget increases to reflect the 2016 spending level. Moved by Ald. Moran. Seconded by Ald. Mazzuca. Ald. Moran recognized the most recent memorandum. He spoke about his research in case management and public policy. He believes two part-time positions might be a better option. Ald. Mazzuca questioned the Police Chief on his expectations for the first year and the backup system. Chief Kaminski referred to the continuity of services between two individuals. He wanted the Council to be comfortable knowing that there were systems in place. In his opinion, he believes one person would serve the City better. Ald. Mazzuca also spoke about the Next Door program, inquiring how that would work with the new Social Worker. The Chief believed all connections would work together. He sees it all together as one person for the delivery of services and development of strategies. Ald. Mazzuca believes two part-time people would make a better connection rather than one. Ald. Mazzuca believed the Chief has good goals and ideas but there is a genuine disagreement with the mechanism for delivery. He would welcome an amendment for a two-person model in the future. Some work listed under the first year goals has already been done in his opinion. Ald. Milissis believes there is a need for a full time social worker. He was disappointed with the way it was presented. He is not voting against the increase because he does not like the alternative of going back to a part-time person; it would be a disservice to the City. It should be re-evaluated moving later. Page 9 of 13

10 He hopes that the Chief would provide more focus to front line work on the Police side. Ald. Milissis supports a full time position with the intent of re-visiting this in the next budget year. Ald. Knight echoed most of the Ald. Milissis comments. Ald. Van Roeyen supported the full time representative. Acting Mayor Maloney recognized the well-rounded discussion on a very important topic. He believes there is a gap and segment of the community that struggles; there is a need for these services. He would like to see a full-time representative. Ald. Moran would like to see information submitted regularly with the monthly report once the position/program is established. (to amend Police Social Worker line item) AYES: Ald.
