Subject: 2404 Ridge Avenue – Application for appeal of the Preservation
Commission Denial of a Certificate of Economic Hardship
Date: February 22, 2021
Recommended Action:
The City Council may make a motion to accept the application for appeal. If a motion is made

Commission within forty-five (45) days. If no motion to accept the application for appeal is

Council Action:
For Action
Summary:
On October 26, 2020, Rick Sweitzer and Chris Sweitzer, owners, applied for a Certificate of
Economic Hardship to the Preservation Commission as provided in Section 2 -8-10 of the
Preservation Ordinance 19-O-18. The Certificate of Economic Hardship application followed
the Preservation Commissions' denial on August 11, 2020, of a modified Certificate of
Appropriateness for post-approval alterations to the original 1997 approved proje ct. Since the
previous denial of Certificate of Appropriateness on August 6, 2019, the applicant had
removed three skylights on the east elevation of the property.
The applicant requested and was granted continuances in November and December of 2020.
At the public hearing on January 12, 2021, the Preservation Commission reviewed a second
application for Economic Hardship after the previous second denial of a modified Certificate
of Appropriateness for post-approval alterations (described below). After hearing testimony
(attached) and reviewing the provided documentation, the Commission determined that the
standard for economic hardship (2-8-10 (B), “The Commission shall only approve an
application for a Certificate of Economic Hardship upon a determination that the denial of the
SP1.Page 12 of 454
certificate of appropriateness has resulted in the denial of all reasonable use of and return
from the property” was not met.
The case the applicant attempted to make for Economic Hardship does not align with the
intent of the ordinance which is not for a mere financial burden, but for situations where the
Ordinance and preservation of critical resources result in a complete taking of reasonable use
and value of a property. Economic Hardship is intended to have a significant burden of proof,
which the applicant failed to demonstrate.
Specifically, the Commission rejected the position that the inability to receive a Final
Certificate of Occupancy for the accessory-structure and the corresponding ability to rent the
structure separately as an Accessory Dwelling Unit, if desired, was not a direct result of the
Commissions postfor of Certificate Appropriateness deny to decision the -approval
alterations. As such, the Commission determined that the denial of the Certificate of
Appropriateness for post-approval alterations did not eliminate all reasonable use of and
return from the property. Notably, regardless of the denial for post-approval alterations, the
property can continue to be rented, owner-occupied, or sold all at reasona ble returns. The
use and density, single-family residential, has been maintained. Commissioners ultimately
recommended that an audit of the barn and the non -approved alterations be created
(summarized below and attached) and a negotiated settlement for res olution be found
between the City and the applicant. The Commission saw either a modified application for
Certificate of Appropriateness or alternatively issuance of a fine through administrative
adjudication, to be the appropriate next step.
1997 Preservation Commission Determination
In 1997, Rick Sweitzer presented plans for alterations to the barn structure with the intent
being the creation of habitable space. The Commission was generally supportive of the intent
and efforts at adaptive use of the building as well as continued investment and preservation
of received of Certificate a proposal a resource. vernacular common once The
Appropriateness (COA). Additional points of note included:
• Deck: Commissioners had concern with the deck being too close to a nearby tree and
that the surrounding trees were important to the integrity of the setting. Commissioners
did not have an issue with the deck due to it not being attached to the structure and its
limited visibility due to dense foliage which provides seclusion. The Commission
preferred detailing of the deck to be minimal to match the vernacular aesthetic of the
barn.
• Visibility and primary elevations of concern: Commissioners identified that the view
from Lincoln Street, particularly the north elevation of the barn, was the principle
concern and primary elevation. The east elevation was also considered primary due to
visibility from Lincoln Street and the relationship between the accessory and principle
structures.
• Skylights: The Commission had some concern with the inclusion of skylights although
they agreed that the location on the west side was minimally visible from the public
way, did not degrade the relationship between the principle and accessory structures
and thus was not a point of objection. C. Ruiz the Preservation Planner, stated that he
Page 2 of 121
SP1.Page 13 of 454
would like to minimize the number of skylights although Mr. Sweitzer explained their
necessity to provide adequate light to the habitable interior space.
• Upper-Story Windows: The upper-story windows were installed by the previous
owner and were existing prior to review by the Commission.
2000 Re-Issuance of 1997 COA
In 2000, the Preservation Officer re-issued a Certificate of Appropriateness. The Preservation
Officer denies this re-issuance as being administrative approval of the deviations from the
original COA.
Staff and Landmark Survey Consultant Opinion on Deviations From 1997 COA
Staff conducted a call with the consultant group who prepared the 2015 Landmark Survey
and Nicholas and AIA Gilbert, COA. Doug the from deviations the discussed 1997
assignment, the that despite confirmed survey the undertook who AICP, Kalogeresis,
deviations from the COA and non-approved alterations to the west and south elevations, the
barn retains excellent to good integrity, as indicated in the 2015 Landmark Property Survey
(attached). Specifically, the deviations do not diverge significantly from the intent in the 1990s
to invest in the barn and adapt it to a habitable use. As an adaptive u se project, modifications
related to the feasibility of its habitability and which authentically reflect its new use are
appropriate and retain its distinctive board and batten cladding. Although the deviations on
the west elevation are not ideal, they are palatable and the 1997 Commission determined this
to dense to due largely was determination However, elevation. secondary a be that
vegetative screening, which has since been removed by the City. If changes were proposed
on this elevation, staff recommends removal of the double-window south of the doorway and
installation of a single window aligning with the upper story windows south edge, as well as
installation of exterior grilles with a similar profile to the upper -story windows on all first story
windows to create a simulated divided lite. Deviations on the south and east elevation are
seen as negligible – noting that the majority of these represent less work than what was
permitted and visibility from the public way is minimal. The most egregious non -approved
intervention, skylights on the east elevation roof, which degraded the relationship between
principle and accessory structure, have since been removed. The north elevation, which the
1997 Commission determined to be the primary elevation and most critical, has been
preserved as original.
Staff Opinion on Gross Negligence
Staff does not believe that gross or willful negligence occurred primarily because the owner
did submit for and receive a COA in 1997 and the intent of that approval has predomin ately
been maintained albeit altered physically. Additionally, although deviations occurred, the
owner did respect the 1997 Commissions direction on primary vs secondary elevations and
no alterations took place on the north elevation. Finally, the preserva tion ordinance states
economic hardship may not be considered if gross negligence occurred (Section 2 -8-1-5 (B)).
This section of the ordinance, penalties, is administered by staff, not the Commission. As
such, the Preservation Coordinator and Planning and Zoning Managers' determination to not
apply this penalty and permit application for economic hardship is reason to believe that
gross negligence did not occur and therefore under Section 2 -8-1-5 (C) complete reversal of
the deviations from the original COA is not just recourse. If negligence was thought to of
Page 3 of 121
SP1.Page 14 of 454
occurred, it is staff’s opinion that the two applications for Economic Hardship should not have
been permitted to move forward for review by the Commission.
Staff recommendation for resolution
Due to the age of the alterations in question, the vernacular nature of the structure, no acute
degradation of integrity (as noted and documented by the consultant who conducted the
Landmark Inventory in 2015), reversal of the most egregious alterations at the owner's
expense, and a first-time offense, staff ultimately recommends a fine to be determined by a
Hearing Officer through the Administrative Adjudication process.

Evanston Preservation Commission:Appeal-to City Council ‘
Dated:February 6,2021
11.What aspects of the PreservationC0m?lliS!ii0I’I'§_@ciSi0I1 are you appealing?
We are appealing the Historic Preservation Connmi-ssionx’s(”HPC”):decision to-deny the 2404
Ridge application for certi?cate of economic hardshi-p based on the interpretation of the,—
historic preservation ordinance,standardsfor review of applications for certificate of
appropriateness,determinationof the facts and some additional information regarding the
application and decision.'
Interpretation of the Historic Preservation tlirclirianrme,Staridairds for Review of Applications
for Certi?cate of Appropriateness:
During the HPC meeting,commissioners.d.eterrn~ined‘~that the a.ppli:cant’sha.rd'shi=pdue to denial
of a COA for the barn did»not deny reasonabl'e~use and return from the property.Owner would
be forced to spend over $70,000 to revert these changes to the historic structure in question.
The denial of the COA has put the release of this covenant on pause,adding more:potential lost
income and return;from the barn in questiori.The opportunity cost of this COA.d:e?nia.lis“
immeasurable,for it has.forced the owner to spend thousands of dollars“in altering renovations
that were done twenty plus years ago.The cimrnmissionersstated that the owner brought this
on himself,which does not address the standairds:1fon'reviewof Certificateof Economic
Hardship.In fact,the denial of a COA has rem-.illtecl'in an absolute elimination of reasonable
use and return from the barn in question.
In the event the owner would market the pm-perty for sale,the value of the property would be
significantly hindered by the multiple encumbrances that exist on the Barn structure.The
commissioners also did not take into a.cco~unt that the applicant had submitted a s’uibd;ivis.ion
request 2+years ago,which has also been held up by the ou-tstanding barn COA issues.By
refusing to hear the subdivision application (that was deemed zoningcompliant),theowneris
unable to realize any added value that this may bring to the property.
During the meeting,Commissioner Cohen amazed‘that the l.-lP€:could,assume that the denial
of the COA_:was denial of the returnof the piroiperltm since it was clearthat theqbarn'-couiidnot».
be rented without the COA.He seemed to conclude tlmatdespite this,the owner's
"negligence"was at fault.Thereafter,a memiorandum was published on this denial,with a
specific section dedicated"to "Staff OpiniononGross Negiigence."Within thisit states:
“Staff does not believe that gross or willlfullinegiigenceoccurred primarily because the
ownerdid submit for and receive a con and the intent of that approval has
predominantly been maintained.Adliiitiionally,although deviations occurred,the
owner did respect the C0fI‘:l|1’|iSSi0ll'll!illl?ilTlE€:1IiCll?ll‘0llll=prirnairy vs.seconda-ry_elevationsjand‘

The application for certificate of economic hardship exists to allow property owners to
objectively show ?nancial hardship due to a COA denial.Within the application,the applicant
provided multiple documents and support showing severe hardship that this COA denial has
imposed.On top of forcing owner to spend an additional $70,000+in reverting these changes,
it still remains an uninhabitable unit due to the COA denial and consequent refusal to release
the dated ADU Covenant.
The City planner stated in the meeting that by acceptingthisapplication,no precedent would

Thanks for the note.We are

purchase at some point

variables for long term rental
consideration for us.Great,
authentic property with
character and certainly history.
Thanks for the time and
consideration.
Exhibit #1 {Prospective Tenant Correspondence:Thursday Februag 6"‘,2020]
The owner (who is great by the
way)was transparent regarding
some of the zoning and
historical landmark scrutiny he
faces as an owner and his
pursuit of compliance were
really more points to consicler
as a renter vs take as an issue.
Example:the barn could
eventually be a separate rental
at some point which changes
the long term vision as a renter
or maybe not.its an unknown
at this point.Overall the
property is so precious and
unique based on the historical
landmark aspect and I'm
hopeful he can get a great
renter.

Honorable members of the Preservation Commission
Regarding: 2404 Ridge Avenue
Chair Simon and members of the Preservation Commission,
Procedure:
Under City Code Section 2-8-10 and upon denial of a Certificate of Appropriateness
and subsequent appeal to City Council, an applicant is afforded the right to pursue a
Certificate of Economic Hardship and the Commission shall hold a public hearing 35
days from the time of receipt of said application and submission of required
documentation. Although longer than 35 days has passed since receipt of the
application, staff believes this requirement has been maintained since action by the
Commission was taken on two separate occasions to continue the case to a date
certain, per the applicants own request and pursuant to code section 2-8-10 (F) 4.
Staff recommends that further requests to continue the case be denied. If the
applicant fails to appear, staff recommends that the public hearing be opened and
action taken without the applicant present or the case be dismissed.
To initiate the public hearing, a motion to open the hearing shall be made and
seconded by a member of the Commission and subject to a roll-call vote. Once the
hearing has been opened, the respondent, shall be given an opportunity to present
testimony and evidence supporting the case. Staff recommends that this be limited
to ten minutes and that the applicants testimony maintain relevance to Economic
Hardship and not previous denial(s) of Certificate of Appropriateness. Staff further
recommends that the applicants testimony be kept to evidence and testimony not
previously deliberated during previous application for Economic Hardship 19PRES-
0266. Additionally, staff recommends that new testimony and evidence be focused
on financial aspects of property as a whole and not the accessory structure
individually, nor ongoing City proceedings involving licensure of the accessory
structure as an Accessory Dwelling Unit, open zoning violations, and a property
dispute related to the adjacent alley.
Upon the conclusion of the respondents allotted time, Commissioners will be
provided time to ask questions of the applicant. Upon conclusion of questions, public
comment will be invited. Staff recommends that public comment be limited to 2
minutes or less per individual. Staff has received three letters of opposition
(attached).

Cade W. Sterling
City Planner
Upon conclusion of public comment, the applicant shall be allowed to respond to any
comments made. Once the response has been made, the record shall be closed and
Commissioners shall be permitted to debate without interference from the applicant
nor from the public. A single standard (2-8-10-B) shall be the focus of the
debate. Whether denial of the modified Certificate of Appropriateness on
August 11, 2020 resulted in the denial of all reasonable use of, and return
from, the property.
Recommendation:
Staff does not see new evidence which contradicts the previous denial of Certificate
of Economic Hardship. The subject property is zoned R1-Single Family Residential
and is currently improved with a large single-family residence and accessory
structure. Denial of the COA did not eliminate the reasonable use of the subject
property as the use remains unchanged. Furthermore, staff believes that a
reasonable return of the property is maintained as the subject property continues to
be rented and is currently developed to the highest intensity permitted for this Zoning
District. Furthermore, the value of the property has appreciated since purchase (25
years ago) and investments made to the property during that time are assumed to
increase overall value and subsequent rent structure.
Staff would recommend that the applicant, if willing, apply for a modified COA which
addresses concerns Commissioners had during deliberation on August 11, 2020.
This is the only solution staff sees which would avoid litigation in Circuit Court.
Litigation at Circuit Court would be the logical next step once and if all administrative
remedies, including the second Certificate of Economic Hardship, are exhausted. At
that point, the City would take a final position on redress.
Legislative History:
On August 6, 2019 a COA for post-approval alterations was applied for and denied
1-6 by the Commission. (minutes attached) The COA which was previously denied
involved application to maintain previously un-authorized alterations to the
accessory structure outside of the 1990s approved COA. These primarily included
skylight and window locations which commissioners found to degrade the integrity of
the structure. This denial was appealed to City Council and not heard. Subsequently,
a Certificate of Economic Hardship was heard on February 11, 2020, and
unanimously denied by the Commission. (minutes attached).
On August 11, 2020 the applicant made modifications to the previously denied COA
by removing three skylights at the west elevation, one sliding door on the east
elevation, and one window on the south elevation. The application for COA was
unanimously denied. (minutes attached).
Respectfully,

3. OLD BUSINESS
A.PUBLIC HEARING - 2404 Ridge Ave. - Landmark, Case # 20PRES-0308
Economic Hardship
Rick Sweitzer applies for a Certificate of Economic Hardship, following
the September 29, 2020, City Council‘s decision to not accept Mr. Sweitzer’s
appeal of the Preservation Commission’s denial of a certificate of
appropriateness on August 11, 2020. The Commission had denied approval of
the existing conditions of windows and skylights on the barn, which reflect less
work completed than originally approved 15+ years ago. The applicant claims
that returning the barn back to the 1997/2000 approved alterations would result
in economic hardship or the denial of all reasonable use of and return from
the property. Applicable standard 2-8-10 (B). The applicant has requested
to continue the item to December 8, 2020.

Re: 2404 Ridge Avenue
Evanston, Illinois
To whom it may concern,
I was the architect of record for the work completed at 2404 Ridge Avenue, Evanston, since the purchase
of the property in 1996. I have extensive understanding of rehabilitation, renovation, and restoration of
historical landmark properties, including a number of buildings on the National Register. I worked with the
owner to provide renderings and plans for the permit and approved work completed on the barn between
1996 and the present. When the property was purchased, the barn was in substantial decay, requiring the
owner to prepare a renovation plan that would restore and rehabilitate the structure, from the dirt floor up.
The plans included 6 skylights and several additional windows and doors to be installed or restored. The
cost of this work that was completed was substantial and included many hours spent working with the City
to get these plans through the various channels and approvals. The work was performed long ago (more
than two decades ago), substantially completed, bringing the barn into a sound and habitable condition.
(Prior to this, work was done to repair the farmhouse, which also had some serious structural issues, owing
to its age.)
It is my opinion that in order to comply with the City’s recent request to revert these changes made 20+
years ago, for which a permit was obtained and for which the work was reviewed by an Evanston building
inspector, the cost would be considerable. The value to the city of these changes is highly questionable:
Especially considering the very minor differences that would result from these changes. That it has taken
20 years for anyone to raise this issue to highlights their insignificance. (In fact, since the view of the barn
is obscured from most views, these issues were only raised by a careful study of drawings two decades after
construction.) Costs for reverting the work to pre-1996 condition would include newly created architectural
plans, engineers and contractors’ costs, and any administrative costs required by the City in order to
complete this work. Evanston should also credit the time spent on the original drawings, for which a permit
was issued; as well as the construction work itself, which was inspected, since it appears that the permit,
for which the owner was charged was valueless. The removal and relocation of the skylights, as requested,
will require the owner to reconstruct portions of the roof. The removal of windows on the façade will require
the owner to purchase and install new windows and siding. These costs, in addition to the costs initially
incurred, would be significant.
The owner has maintained this structure to high standards, at his own volition, with the goal of maintaining
as many of its original features as possible since purchasing and renovating it 20+ years ago. The work that
was done repositioned the barn for a new generation of use and gave it new life. Requiring removal of work
that has gone unnoticed for twenty years seems incredible, and of questionable value to anyone.
Yours sincerely,
Cordogan Clark & Associates

The subject's market area is experiencing stable real estate values. Some new
construction was evident in the area. Seller buydowns and concessions are not a factor in the market. Conventional financing is near
4.00%-4.50% for 30 year fixed rate mortgages. Adjustable rate mortgages are available at a slightly lower rate. See Addenda.
There are no apparent detrimental factors that would affect the subject's marketability. The area has access to all
supporting facilities including shopping, transportation, schools, recreation and employment. Also see addendum.

the lower price per square foot. Sale 2 and 4 had single family homes at the time of sale and both are adjusted upward for demolition.
The analyzed sales have adjusted sale prices per square foot of $49.29, $59.69,
$49.45 and $53.13. After considering all factors affecting value, we are of the opinion that the subject has a value bracketed between
$50.00 and $55.00, say $52.50 per square foot. See Addenda

Addendum Page 1 of 10
This is an addendum to the appraisal report. The depth of the discussion contained in this report
is specific to the needs of the client and/or it’s assigned for the intended use stated in this report.
The appraiser is not responsible for the unauthorized use of this report. Additional information
and data has been retained in our files. This appraisal is not for federally related financing
purposes. The purpose of this appraisal is to provide our opinion of the Market Value of the real
estate described in this report in order to assist the client in the potential acquisition of the
property.
SCOPE OF WORK
The Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice, 2018-2019 Edition, page 5 defines scope of
work as “the type and extent of research and analyses in an appraisal or appraisal review assignment.”
The following steps were followed in arriving at the final opinion of value included in the appraisal
report of the subject property.
1. After receiving the assignment, a preliminary search of all available resources was made to
determine market trends, influences and other significant factors pertinent to the subject property.
2. The subject of this appraisal report is 320 square feet of land located at the southwest corner and
along the public alley of the property at 2404 Ridge Avenue in Evanston, IL. The purpose of this
appraisal report is to develop an opinion of market value of said 320 square feet for a potential
future acquisition by the City of Evanston.
This entire property consists of a two story farm house and a two story coach house, all located on
a 29,156 square foot site, zoned R1, Single-Family Residential District.
Per discussion with the owner, he intends to subdivide the property into two lots, one with existing
improvements (a house and a coach house) and a vacant parcel that could be sold to a developer
for a future development. No subdivision plans nor City of Evanston approval for subdivision
were completed or available to us.
Based on our analysis, the highest and best use of the site would be to subdivide it. The City of
Evanston intends to acquire 320 square feet that is on the parcel that will be developed as a vacant
lot. This appraisal report is developed under hypothetical condition that the parcel will be
subdivided and a vacant lot will be developed.
3. A second review of the data was then performed with the most relevant factors extracted and
considered. The sales were examined and transfer information involved in the transactions was
analyzed. Market factors were weighed and their influence on the subject property was
determined. The appraiser did not use either the Cost or Income Capitalization approaches to
value as both approaches are not applicable. The primary approach to value is the Sales
Comparison Approach. After analysis of the Sales Comparison Approach, we reached an opinion
of value.
4. The appraisal report was then completed in accordance with standards dictated by THE
APPRAISAL FOUNDATION. The report included sufficient data and information needed to lead
a reader to a similar value conclusion.
5. The appraisal report was then delivered to the client, Capital Planning & Engineering, Public
Works Agency, City of Evanston c/o Chris Venatta, PE, which constituted the completion of the
assignment.

EXTENT OF APPRAISAL PROCESS
The appraisal is based on the information gathered by the appraiser from public records, other identified
sources, inspection of the subject property and neighborhood, and selection of comparable sales within
the subject market area. The original source of the comparables is shown in the Data Source section of
the market grid along with the source of verification, if available. The original source is presented first.
The sources and data are considered reliable. When conflicting information was provided, the source
deemed most reliable has been used. Data believed to be unreliable was not included in the report nor
used as a basis for the value conclusion.
EXTRAORDINARY ASSUMPTIONS
The Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice defines an extraordinary assumption as an
assumption directly related to a specific assignment, which, if found to be false, could alter the
appraiser’s opinion or conclusion. In preparation of this report, the following extraordinary assumption
was utilized in completing the assignment:
1) Plat of Survey was provided. The entire lot site size was developed based on plat of survey. The
square footage of land that is subject of this appraisal report (320 square feet) was provided by the
client and is subject to verification of the current spotted plat of survey.
2) It is assumed that all applicable zoning and use regulations and restrictions have been complied with,
unless a nonconformity has been stated, defined, and considered in the appraisal report, that all required
licenses and certificates of occupancy have been or can be obtained and that the land and improvements
are within the boundaries or property lines of the property described and that there are no
encroachments or easements unless noted in the report.
3) The appraiser assumes that there is full compliance with all applicable federal, state, local and
building environmental regulations and laws unless noncompliance is stated, defined and considered in
the appraisal report. This appraisal is contingent upon the subject property being in compliance with the
local building code, including all applicable health, safety and housing requirements.
Should these assumptions be inaccurate, the results of the appraisal might be affected. We reserve the
right to modify this report should any of these assumptions be inaccurate.
HYPOTHETICAL CONDITIONS
The Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice defines hypothetical conditions as those
which are contrary to what exists but is supposed for the purpose of analysis.
The entire subject property is a 29,156 square foot site with 137.37 feet of frontage along west side of
Ridge Avenue zoned R-1, Single Family Residential District. Based on our analysis it appears that the
highest and best use for the subject property is to have it subdivided into two lots maintaining current
improvements on one lot and developing the second lot for independent future development.
In preparation of this report, the following hypothetical conditions were utilized:
1. We were provided with a plat of survey dated March 11, 2019 and based on that survey a
hypothetical subdivision could be as follows. The south part of the subject entire lot with 35 feet
of lot frontage and total lot area of 7,520 square feet and the north part of a lot (with existing
improvements) with 102.37 feet of lot frontage (inclusive of 5 feet of side yard requirements)
and a total of 21,636 square feet.
2. After the taking of 320 square feet of the individually developed parcel, the site will comply
with zoning requirements and will be buildable.

MARKET CONDITIONS
Trend Analysis
Neighborhoods generally experience four stages:
(1) growth - a period which the neighborhood gains public favor and acceptance,
(2) stability - a period of equilibrium without market gains or losses,
(3) decline - a period of diminishing demand,
(4) revitalization - a period of renewal, modernization, and increasing demand.
From our observation of the real estate values and trends in the immediate neighborhood, it is our
opinion that the area had been experiencing stable market conditions. It is well established residential
neighborhood. Some new construction activity and renovations of older homes in the area is apparent.
Based upon these analyses, we feel that the area is in a stage of equilibrium. Real estate values should
slightly increase during the near future.

MARKETING PERIOD AND EXPOSURE TIME
The Definition of Market Value requires that a reasonable time be allowed for exposure in the open
market. This exposure time is presumed to have occurred prior to the date of the appraisal, while the
estimated marketing period occurs after the date of appraisal.
Exposure time and marketing period could be the same, given a stable market environment with no
change anticipated in market conditions. However, in many instances this is not the case. If the market
is improving, the marketing period would most likely be less than the exposure period. If the market
conditions were anticipated to worsen, however, the opposite may be true.
In this case, the exposure time for the subject property is similar to the comparable or competitive
properties as identified in the appraisal report. Sales analyzed in our report had marketing times from 1
to 77 days and active listing had been of the market for 96 days. Based on this a period of one to three
months has been estimated, assuming professional brokerage.
COMMENTS TO THE SUBJECT
The entire subject property is a 29,156 square foot site with 137.37 feet of frontage along west side of
Ridge Avenue zoned R-1, Single Family Residential District. The improvements include a two story
frame constructed farm house and a two story with lower, garage level coach house that is currently
non-habitable and has no water service. The garage is currently accessible via gravel paved driveway
off the public alley.
Current zoning requirement for the R-1 zoning classification, the minimum lot size is 7,200 square feet
with a minimum of 35 feet of lot frontage. Based on our analysis it appears that the highest and best use
for the subject property is to have it subdivided into two lots maintaining current improvements on one
lot and developing the second lot that could be independently developed in the future.
We were provided with a plat of survey dated March 11, 2019 and based on that survey a hypothetical
subdivision subsequent to sale of 320 square feet could be as follows.
The south part of the subject lot with 35 feet of lot frontage and total lot area of 7,520 square feet and
the north part of a lot (with existing improvements) with 102.37 feet of lot frontage (inclusive of 5 feet
of side yard requirements) and a total of 21,636 square feet.
The purpose of this appraisal report is to value 320 square feet of the lot located at the southwest corner
of the subject lot and along the public alley. In order to develop the value of said 320 square feet we
will value the 7,520 square foot site and the 7,200 square foot site subsequent to sell of 320 square feet.

HIGHEST AND BEST USE ANALYSIS
Highest and best use analysis is an economic study of market forces focused on the subject property.
An understanding of market behavior is critical to the concept of the highest and best use. It is defined
as follows(1):
“The reasonably probable and legal use of vacant land or an improved property,
that is physically possible, appropriately supported, financially feasible and that
results in the highest value. The four criteria the highest and best use must
meet are legal permissibility, physical possibility, financial feasibility, and
maximum productivity. Alternatively, the probable use of land or improved
property – specific with respect to the user and timing of the use – that is
adequately supported and results in the highest present value.”
Another source defines Highest and Best Use as(2):
"The reasonably probable use of property that results in the highest value."
Implied in these definitions is that the determination of highest and best use takes into account the
contribution of a specific use to the community or community development goals as well as the benefits
of that use to individual property owners. Hence, in certain situations the highest and best use of land
may be for parks, greenbelts, preservation, conservation, wildlife habitats, and the like.
There are four criteria property must meet to be the highest and best use. These are applicable to both
vacant land and improved property. The highest and best use must be:
1. Legally Permissible
What land use can be restricted by zoning regulations or deed restrictions?
2. Physically Possible
What type of improvements could the site physically support based on its lot size, soil
conditions, flood plain and other physical factors?
3. Financially Feasible
What improvements on the site would yield adequate financial returns to the owner?
4. Maximally Productive
What use would create the highest overall present worth of the site?
When evaluating a property to determine its highest and best use, two separate concepts must be
explored:
1. The highest and best use of the land as vacant, and
2. The highest and best use of the site as improved.
It is possible that the highest and best use of the site as vacant would be different from the highest and
best use as improved. If this was the case, a judgment would then need to be made whether the current
improvements maximize the value of the site or if it would be financially feasible to replace or modify
the improvements with another use.

HIGHEST AND BEST USE ANALYSIS- Continued
The basis for concluding the highest and best use of the land lies within market analysis and the
economic concept of supply and demand. Generally, it is that use which at any given time anticipates
the greatest land value which can be created consistent with restrictions imposed by its environment and
the community in which it is located.
An analysis of this type must look into the future and risk the hazards involved in forecasting. It is not
possible to arrive at a precise determination as to supply and demand, but by investigating as many
known factors as possible, conclusions may be drawn as to the optimum land utilization and its
marketability under that concept.
HIGHEST AND BEST USE OF LAND AS THOUGH VACANT
1. Legally Permissible
The subject is zoned R1, Single-Family Residential District. This zoning allows construction of
a single family home. There are also other uses permitted under this zoning as a special use.
Based upon the aforementioned, all uses identified and allowed under the existing zoning are
legally permissible. It is also noted that due to the subject's location, surrounded by various
residential/commercial type property, a change in zoning for another use would be unlikely.
2. Physically Possible
As noted, the subject site (upon hypothetical subdivision) is 7,520± square feet and is roughly
rectangular in shape. It is fairly level site, is not situated in a flood hazard area, and appears to
have soil quality suitable for development. All utilities are to the subject or are available and
there are no known factors that would restrict development of the site, other than legal or zoning
regulations.
With all of these factors considered, the subject site would physically allow and support legally
permissible uses.
3. Financially Feasible
The subject property is located in an average area built-up with a mixture of residential and
commercial improvements. The subject's market area is improving, and there has been some
recent developments and rehabbing of existing properties is evident. It appears that it would be
financially feasible to develop the site at the present time.
4. Maximally Productive
The use that creates the highest land value would be the highest and best use of the site as though
vacant. Since development of the site is legally permissible, physically possible and financially
feasible, it follows that the maximally productive use of the site would be to develop it.
C o n c l u s i o n
The highest and best use of the site, as vacant, is to improve it with a single family home.

COMMENTS ON SALES COMPARISONS
Market Conditions: All sales are adjusted upward at 3% per year (0.25% per month). Comparable 1
is currently offered for sale as vacant lot for $429,000 or $53.96 per sqft and has
been on the market for 96 days.
Conditions of Sale: None detected and no adjustments were applied.
Location: Sales 1, 2 and 3 have similar general and street locations and no adjustment
were applied. Sale 4 is on superior Sheridan Road and is adjusted downward.
Size: Sale 4 is much larger and is adjusted upward as larger parcels tend to sell at the
lower price per square foot.
Zoning: All Sales have same zoning classifications as the subject.
Financing: Comparables 1 and 2 were cash sales which are common in the area and
especially in cases of land sales. Contracts with "no mortgage contingencies" are
used to convey additional assurances to the seller that the buyer is ready, willing
and able to close on schedule with or without financing. In this appraiser's
experience the incidence of a cash sale has no impact on the market value of the
sale and therefore no adjustments were required.
The analyzed sales have adjusted sale prices per square foot of $49.29, $59.69, $49.45 and $53.13.
After considering all factors affecting value, we are of the opinion that the subject has a value bracketed
between $50.00 and $55.00, say $52.50 per square foot.
Market value of the site prior to taking of the 320 square feet is:
$52.50 per square foot x 7,520± square feet = $394,800 Say $395,000
Market value of the site after taking of the 320 square feet is:
$52.50 per square foot x 7,200± square feet = $378,000
After taking of 320 square feet, the lot will be smaller, but said 320 square feet is towards to the rear of
the lot and along public alley and should not adversely affect site functional utility nor significantly
diminish the value of the site (assuming the lot would still be buildable).
Market value of the 320 square feet of vacant land is calculated as a difference of $395,000 less
$378,000.
Market value of 320 square feet of vacant land.....................................................................$17,000

Scope of Work, Assumptions and Limiting Conditions
Scope of work is defined in the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice as " the type and extent of research and analyses in an
assignment." In short, scope of work is simply what the appraiser did and did not do during the course of the assignment. It includes, but is not
limited to: the extent to which the property is identified and inspected, the type and extent of data researched, the type and extent of analyses applied
to arrive at opinions or conclusions.
The scope of this appraisal and ensuing discussion in this report are specific to the needs of the client, other identified intended users and to the
intended use of the report. This report was prepared for the sole and exclusive use of the client and other identified intended users for the identified
intended use and its use by any other parties is prohibited. The appraiser is not responsible for unauthorized use of the report.
The appraiser's certification appearing in this appraisal report is subject to the following conditions and to such other specific conditions as are
set forth by the appraiser in the report. All extraordinary assumptions and hypothetical conditions are stated in the report and might have affected the
assignment results.
1.The appraiser assumes no responsibility for matters of a legal nature affecting the property appraised or title thereto, nor does the appraiser render any opinion as to the title, which is
assumed to be good and marketable. The property is appraised as though under responsible ownership.
2.Any sketch in this report may show approximate dimensions and is included only to assist the reader in visualizing the property. The appraiser has made no survey of the property.
3.The appraiser is not required to give testimony or appear in court because of having made the appraisal with reference to the property in question, unless arrangements have been
previously made thereto.
4.Neither all, nor any part of the content of this report, copy or other media thereof (including conclusions as to the property value, the identity of the appraiser, professional designations,
or the firm with which the appraiser is connected), shall be used for any purposes by anyone but the client and other intended users as identified in this report, nor shall it be conveyed by
anyone to the public through advertising, public relations, news, sales, or other media, without the written consent of the appraiser.
5.The appraiser will not disclose the contents of this appraisal report unless required by applicable law or as specified in the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice.
6.Information, estimates, and opinions furnished to the appraiser, and contained in the report, were obtained from sources considered reliable and believed to be true and correct.
However, no responsibility for accuracy of such items furnished to the appraiser is assumed by the appraiser.
7.The appraiser assumes that there are no hidden or unapparent conditions of the property, subsoil, or structures, which would render it more or less valuable. The appraiser assumes
no responsibility for such conditions, or for engineering or testing, which might be required to discover such factors. This appraisal is not an environmental assessment of the property and
should not be considered as such.
8.This appraisal report should not be used to disclose the condition of the property as it relates to the presence/absence of defects. The client is invited and encouraged to employ qualified
experts to inspect and address areas of concern. If negative conditions are discovered, the opinion of value may be affected.
9.Appraisals involving hypothetical conditions related to completion of new construction, repairs or alteration are based on the assumption that such completion, alteration or repairs will
be competently performed.

Part Two (D): #12
Please refer to subsequent pages outlining owner’s request for the City of Evanston to release a
recorded Covenant (dated September 22, 2000) that states: “The subject property may not be
used for more than one principal dwelling, nor may the property be used for more than one
principal use. The accessory “barn” on the subject property may be rehabilitated and used as an
accessory dwelling but at no time may the accessory “barn” be used as an accessory dwelling if
the principal building is occupied by two or three unrelated persons. The Zoning Ordinance
prohibits the residential use of the property by any persons or group of persons other than a
family as defined in the Zoning Ordinance.”
Email from Hugh DuBose (dated October 23, 2019) states that the City does not intend on
addressing this covenant until there is “more clarity” on the outstanding issues (i.e. Barn COA).
Email from Hugh DuBose (dated December 11, 2019) states that the Covenant will be released
by the City as a part of the ongoing subdivision application.
Owner submitted zoning compliant subdivision application in January 2019. This subdivision
application has still yet to be approved by the City Council.
In addition to the preceding evidence of hardship, by withholding the subdivision application
and release of the Covenant, owner is being denied reasonable use of and return from the
property.

Hi RIck,
Thank you for your email. When I made this suggesPon in June, I errantly anPcipated that we would have made
progress on the outstanding issues with your property. Unfortunately, all of the issues remain unresolved.
Therefore, at this Pme, the City does not intend to address the covenant unPl we have more clarity on the
outstanding issues with the property at 2404 Ridge Avenue.
Kind regards,
Hugh

CC:Rick Sweitzer, Erika Storlie
Hi Chris,
Thank you for mee+ng with us Monday. While we may not agree on all issues, we believe we have a path forward to
present an applica+on for subdivision that can be approved by the City Council.
To recap our conversa+on, we discussed the following issues related to the subdivision of 2404 Ridge Avenue:
1. Subdivision fee: Applica+on fee of $330 will need to be paid before the applica+on goes to City Council
2. Alley: Por+on of property needed for con+nued use of alley (approximately 320 sq S) should be dedicated
to the City so that the City can con+nue to provide trash service to the proper+es
3. Deck on city property: City will swap land so that the deck is compliant with all setbacks
4. Plat showing #2 & #3 issues resolved: City will not require a plat of survey un+l an agreement is reached
and agree to including the changes on the plat of survey that is sent to City Council
5. Building Permits: Following approval of the subdivision, you will close out all open building permits and
obtain a new permit for all future work.
6. Covenant" City will release the covenant as part of subdivision
7. Setback: Agree to a setback in compliance with the Preserva+on Commission's recommenda+on to City
Council.
We also briefly discussed removal of the fence. The City is open to working with you on this issue as well. Please let
me know if you have any ques+ons or concerns about the points above.
Kind regards,
Hugh

MEMORANDUM
To: Rick Sweitzer, applicant and owner of record. Sent via E-mail.
From: Cade W. Sterling, City Planner
CC: Johanna Nyden, Director of Community Development
Kelley Gandurski, Corporation Council
Melissa Klotz, Zoning Administrator
Subject: 2404 Ridge Avenue – Preservation Commission decision on application of
Economic Hardship.
Date: February 2, 2021
January 12, 2021 Public Hearing of Economic Hardship
On January 12, 2021 the Preservation Commission reviewed a second application for
Economic Hardship after previous denial of a Certificate of Appropriateness for post-
approval alterations (described below). After hearing testimony (attached) and reviewing
the provided documentation, the Commission determined that the standard for economic
hardship was not met. Specifically, the Commission rejected the position that the inability
to receive a Final Certificate of Occupancy for the accessory-structure and the
corresponding ability to rent the structure separately as an Accessory Dwelling Unit, if
desired, was not a direct result of the Commissions decision to deny the Certificate of
Appropriateness for post-approval alterations. As such, the Commission determined that
the denial of the Certificate of Appropriateness for post-approval alterations did not
eliminate all reasonable use of and return from the property. Notably, regardless of the
denial for post-approval alterations, the property can continue to be rented, owner
occupied, or sold all at reasonable returns. The use, single-family residential, has been
maintained. Commissioners recommended that an audit of the barn and the non-approved
alterations be created (below) and a negotiated settlement for resolution be found between
the City and yourself. The Commission saw either a modified application for Certificate of
Appropriateness, or alternatively issuance of a fine, to be the appropriate next steps.
As discussed previously, the case you are attempting to make for Economic Hardship
does not align with the intent of this section of the ordinance. The intent and purpose is not
for a mere financial burden, but for situations where the Ordinance and preservation of
critical resources could result in a taking. As such, I believe the Commissions decision to
be correct and I recommend the following action be taken to find resolution to this matter.
Per Section 2-8-10 (M) of the City Code you as the applicant, following the denial of the
Certificate of Economic Hardship, may, within thirty days of the denial apply f or appeal to
the City Council. Application of appeal must be received by February 11, 2021. Following
the period for appeal, staff will issue a notice of violation and outline the period of time in
Page 108 of 121
SP1.Page 119 of 454
which compliance must be met. If compliance is not met by said time period, a ticket will be
issued and you will be subject to penalties under Code Section 2 -8-15.
Recommended Action
Staff recommends a penalty be applied for undertaking non-approved alterations in
violation of the Preservation Ordinance. Due to the age of the alterations in question, the
vernacular nature of the structure, no acute degradation of integrity, reversal of the most
egregious alterations at the owners expense, and a first-time offence, a fine to be
determined by a Hearing Officer through the Administrative Adjudication process and
retention of the non-approved alterations in question is deemed appropriate.
The Ordinance does not list enforcement or issuance of penalties as a power or duty
vested in the Preservation Commission. The Commission has on two separate occasions
denied application for a modified Certificate of Appropriateness and on two occasions
denied application for Economic Hardship. City Council has declined to hear all appeals of
the Preservation Commissions decisions regarding this case. Thus, staff recommends
administrative resolution through the City’s codified Administrative Adjudication process
where the property owner will be given an objective hearing by an outside party.
Property Description and Significance
2404 Ridge Avenue is a large lot Landmark property located in North Evanston currently
improved with an Italianate principle structure on the lots northeast corner and vernacular
barn located on the lots northwest corner. Both the barn and principle structure were
constructed in 1866 and retain excellent integrity and are in excellent condition as
identified in the 2015 survey of Evanston Landmarks outside of Historic Districts (survey
sheet attached). The principle structure retains much of its original detailing and
materiality. The L-shaped plan is sited atop a rise in the land, a common location for earlier
settlement in North Evanston, which once contained large estate properties with extensi ve
farmland. Notably, 2404 Ridge retains this integrity of set ting due to its location adjacent to
a large City Park and nearby golf course. The pitched roof barn is a rare surviving example
of a once common vernacular resource in North Evanston. Its distinguishing feature is its
board and batten construction. The barn is said to contain fragments from the Lady Elgin,
which shipwrecked in 1860.
Compared to most historic outbuildings in the nearby Northeast Historic District, the barn
at 2404 Ridge has not compromised its architectural integrity or integrity of setting despite
continual evolutionary alterations. Similar to other historic outbuildings in the nearby
Northeast Historic District, the barn at 2404 Ridge has undergone alterations with the aim
of creating habitable space. This similar condition, albeit of less intensity, exists throughout
Northeast Evanston which historically saw outbuildings and coach houses converted to
single-family residences. The area surrounding 2404 Ridge retains five historic barns,
although they were all constructed much later, betwe en 1908 and 1910.
Landmark Designation:
Both the principle structure and barn were designated Local Landmarks in 1978. The
house was designated under criterion H1, A4, A7, and A8. The barn was designated under
criterion A7 and A8.
Page 109 of 121
SP1.Page 120 of 454
Notably, the barn was designated for two primary reasons. The first being the retention of
a building type once common throughout the City, and the second being its construction
technique and materiality, particularly the use of board and batten siding.
1997 Preservation Commission Determination
In 1997, Rick Sweitzer presented plans for alterations to the barn structure with the intent
being the creation of habitable space. The Commission was generally supportive of the
intent and efforts at adaptive use of the building as well as continued investment and
preservation of a once common vernacular resource. The proposal received a Certificate
of Appropriateness (COA). Additional points of note included:
Deck: Commissioners had concern with the deck being too close to a nearby tree
and that the surrounding trees were important to integrity of setting. Commissioners
did not have an issue with the deck due to it not being attached to the structure and
its limited visibility due to dense foliage which provide seclusion. The Commission
preferred detailing of the deck to be minimal to match the vernacular aesthetic of
the barn.
Visibility and primary elevations of concern: Commissioners identified that the
view from Lincoln Street, particularly the north elevation of the barn, was the
principle concern and primary elevation. The east elevation was also considered
primary due to visibility from Lincoln Street and the relationship between the
accessory and principle structures.
Skylights: The Commission had some concern with the inclusion of skylights
although they agreed that the location on the west side were minimally visible from
the public way, did not degrade the relationship between the principle and
accessory structures and thus were not a point of objection. C. Ruiz the
Preservation Planner, stated that he would like to minimize the number of skylights
although Mr. Sweitzer explained their necessity to provide adequate light to the
habitable interior space.
Upper-Story Windows: The upper-story windows were installed by the previous
owner and were existing prior to review by the Commission.
2000 Re-Issuance of 1997 COA
In 2000, the Preservation Officer re-issued a Certificate of Appropriateness. The
Preservation Officer denies this re-issuance as being administrative approval of the
deviations from the original COA.
Page 110 of 121
SP1.Page 121 of 454
Deviations From 1997 Approved COA
During a proposal to subdivide the property, it was discovered that deviations occurred
between the 1997 approved COA and what was constructed. Deviations include:
East Elevation: Deviations include not installing interior French doors behind the
original exterior barn doors, and the addition of three skylights on the roof, which
have since been removed and re-roofing completed at a cost of ~$13,000.
Figure 1.0: Comparison of East Elevation Approved (left) and Constructed (right)
West Elevation: Deviations include installation of three skylights where six were
proposed, installation of a window on the northwest elevation where none was
proposed, and installation of two double-windows on the southwest elevation where
three single-windows spaced equidistant were proposed. All windows were
proposed with divided lites and all constructed windows have no divided lites. The
location of the skylights deviates slightly, not aligning with the second-story windows
as proposed.

North Elevation: No deviations from approved plan.

SP1.Page 122 of 454
South Elevation: Deviations include enlargement of the central window, new
placement of the two approved skylights, and the southwest double-window not
being installed.

Staff and Consultant Opinion On Deviations From 1997 COA
Staff conducted a call with the consultant group who prepared the 2015 Landmark Survey
and discussed the deviations from the 1997 COA. Doug Gilbert, AIA and Nicholas
Kalogeresis, AICP, who undertook the survey assignment, confirmed that despite the
deviations from the COA and non-approved alterations to the west and south elevations,
the barn retains excellent to good integrity. Specifically, the deviations do not diverge
significantly from the intent in the 1990s to invest in the barn and adapt it to a habitable
use. As an adaptive use project, modifications related to the feasibility of its habitability and
which authentically reflect its new use are appropriate and retain its distinctive board and
batten cladding. Although the deviations on the west elevation are not ideal, they are
palatable and the 1997 Commission determined this to be a secondary elevation .
However, that determination was largely due to dense vegetative screening, which has
since been removed by the City. If changes were proposed on this elevation, staff
recommends removal of the double-window south of the doorway and installation of a
single window aligning with the upper story windows south edge, as well as installation of
exterior grilles with similar profile to the upper-story windows on all first story windows to
create a simulated divided lite. Deviations on the south and east elevation are seen as
negligible – noting that the majority of these represent less work than what was permitted
and visibility from the public way is minimal. The most egregious non-approved
intervention, skylights on the east elevation roof, which degraded the relationship between
principle and accessory structure, have since been removed. The north elevation, which
the 1997 Commission determined to be the primary elevation and most critical, has been
preserved as original.
Staff Opinion On Zoning Issues
During a survey of the adjacent park, it was discovered that the deck was installed partially
on City-owned property by 6”. Since this discovery, the owner applied for minor zoning
relief to permit a 0’ setback where 3’ was required. This request was approved.
Additionally, the owner needed to re-locate the northwest post ~6” to meet this setback
requirement. Upon review during an on-site meeting, the old footing of the post in question
was discovered and the distance between this and the new post location was estimated to
be ~10”. Additionally, part of the decking which was over the lot line, was cut to meet the
new setback. Additionally, staff and the property owner were able to snap a line between
Page 112 of 121
SP1.Page 123 of 454
the survey post and 1’ south of the corner of the northwest foundation (line of property
according to the City Survey dated September 21, 2020.
As such, staff believes the deck to be compliant with the minor variation approval and that
no open zoning violations remain unless a new City Survey is conducted and shows
otherwise.
Staff Opinion On Gross Negligence
Staff does not believe that gross or willful negligence occurred primarily because the
owner did submit for and receive a COA and the intent of that approval has predominately
been maintained. Additionally, although deviations occurred, the owner did respect the
Commissions direction on primary vs secondary elevations and no alterations took place
on the north elevation. Finally, the preservation ordinance states Economic Hardship may
not be considered if gross negligence occurred. As such, the Preservation Coordinator and
Planning and Zoning Managers earlier determination to permit application for Economic
Hardship, on two occasions, is reason to believe gross negligence did not occur and
complete reversal of the deviations from the original COA is not just recourse.
The property owner has sought and received multiple preservation approvals (COAs) for
all additional permitted work on the subject property.

3. OLD BUSINESS
A. 2404 Ridge Avenue – Public Hearing of Economic Hardship - 20PRES-0308
Rick Sweitzer, owner of record, applies for a Certificate of Economic Hardship,
following the September 29, 2020, City Council‘s decision to not accept Mr.
Sweitzer’s appeal of the Preservation Commission’s denial of a certificate of
appropriateness on August 11, 2020. The Commission previously denied approval of
the existing conditions of windows and skylights on the accessory structure, which
reflect less work completed than originally approved 15+ years ago. The applicant
claims returning the structure to the 1997/2000 approved alterations would result in
economic hardship or the denial of all reasonable use of and return from the
property. Applicable standard 2-8-10 (B).
Mr. Sterling read the case into the record and provided guidance regarding
the procedure for a public hearing, timeframe for input, and relevance of
testimony.
Mr. Sterling reminded commissioners that one standard applied to this case
and it was not intended to be an opportunity to revisit the previous denial of
Certificate of Appropriateness.
Mr Sterling stated that the applicant and commissioners had received
guidance regarding the case and that the applicant had agreed to the
procedural framework.
Mr. Sterling made a point of order to clarify that in the recommendation memo
sent to commissioners it was stated that the proposal to subdivide the
Page 114 of 121
SP1.Page 125 of 454
Page 2 of 21
Historic Preservation Commission
property had been approved, when although it had received a positive
recommendation from the commission, it had been ultimately disapproved by
Council.
Vice-Chair Reinhold asked if there was a motion to open the public hearing.
i. Commissioner Sullivan made a motion to open the public hearing.
Second by Commissioner Bodan and approved unanimously on a roll-
call vote.
Mr. Sweitzer gave a brief presentation regarding the case for economic
hardship.
i. Re-read the single standard for review
ii. Belief that the denial of the aforementioned COA met the standard as
it resulted in the removal of reasonable use and return of the property
iii. Without the COA, a COO will not be issued by the City despite the
construction is complete, meets code, and has passed inspection.
iv. This determination prevents reasonable use of the barn as an ADU,
and the income that would generate ($3,500 and $4,400 per month in
loss revenue)
v. Briefly discussed relationship with neighboring property owners whos
objections have been consistent
vi. Discussed the financial burden related to the reversal of the
deviations from the original COA
vii. Described the recent roofing project which was necessitated due to
removal of the non-approved skylights on the east elevation
viii. Discussed the irrationality of adding additional skylights to the west
elevation where they are not existing now
ix. Discussed additional financial burden placed on his business, and
family due to COVID and associated restrictions on business
operability.
x. Discussed challenges for the businesses employees and a continual
loss of savings despite the use of all available resources
xi. Approval of the earlier COA’s would have allowed for the family to
receive financial gain from years of investment into the barn with the
ultimate goal being its preservation.
Commissioner Cohen asked Mr. Sterling about the definition of hardship
i. Mr. Sterling stated that he had discussed with the City Attorney what
the definition of hardship was, as well as the definition of reasonable
in this instance, and was instructed that it would be left to each
Commissioners own interpretation and discretion
Commissioner Cohen asked if the property owner could claim hardship if he
was to blame for the hardship in question
i. Mr. Sterling asked the City Attorney to provide input.
ii. B. George, City Attorney, stated that this was something the
Commissioners could take into account when making a determination
Chair Simon stated that the use of this ordinance provision was never used
previously, so there is not much precedent.
Commissioner Cohen said similar hearings related to zoning are more
common. If you are responsible for the hardship, you shouldn’t be able to
claim that the result of your own negligence is a hardship
Chair Simon asked if the barn was currently occupied and rented
i. Applicant stated that it was not. The tenants of the principle residence
use the barn, but it is not occupied separately.

Historic Preservation Commission
Chair Simon asked for clarification on the costs reflected in the application
and if they were reflective of the total cost to build out the barn as approved
by the original COA. Cost of ~$70,000
i. Applicant believes so
Vice-Chair Reinhold stated that the cost was $72,650 total but that this
included the skylights and roofing which was already completed.
i. Applicant stated that was not correct because although they removed
the skylights from the east elevation, they would have to install them
on the west elevation per the approved plan
Commissioner Dudnik asked if the barn could be rented separately even with
a COA as some document in the application made it seem otherwise.
i. Mr. Sterling stated that there was a pre-existing covenant on the
property which disallowed rental of the structure but this was prior to
the recent code changes for ADU’s. The covenant would be released
once the property was brought into compliance, part of which is
receiving a COA for the alterations.
Commissioner Dudnik asked if the appraisals in the application included the
barn
i. Applicant stated that they did include the barn
Commissioner Dudnik asked about the letter in the application from the
original Architect, noting that the work was performed long ago and was
substantially completed, but he never mentions that the work was not
completed in compliance with the COA.
i. Applicant stated that Mr. Sterling had asked both commissioners and
the applicant to not address the previous COA, but since it seems
relevant to Mr. Dudnik he would like to respond.
ii. Applicant responded that the work was substantially completed in
compliance with the exception of some window placement and that
those changes later received administrative approval by C. Ruiz,
Preservation Officer
Commissioner Bodan stated that this went back to the previously discussed
issue about re-issuance of the COA, which she believes was done because
construction was delayed and started after the COA was issued and it was
not intended to be approval of the modifiications
Commissioner Dudnik stated that it must not be true that the modifications
were approved administratively or this whole situation wouldn’t be occurring
Applicant stated that he was instructed not to revisit the original COA by Mr.
Sterling and that he should only address the question regarding hardship. He
would be happy to discuss it.
Vice-Chair Reinhold agreed, stating that the commissioners should focus on
the question at hand regarding the single standard, not revisiting the original
COA.
Commissioner Morris asked if the property is currently rented as one entity
and the tenants have free use of the barn
i. Applicant stated yes, but not to occupy as habitable space
Commissioner Morris asked if they were paying for the use of the barn as a
workshop or separate space
i. Applicant stated that they were not paying rent for the barn
Commissioner Morris clarified that that tenants were paying for use of the
entire property, and that agreement included use of the barn. That the lease
would be higher because the barn was included.
i. Applicant stated that this was not the case
Page 116 of 121
SP1.Page 127 of 454
Page 4 of 21
Historic Preservation Commission
Mr. Sterling stated the tenants could use the barn for anything but habitable
space due to not having a FCO
Chair Simon stated that although the barn was not renovated in accordance
with the approved COA, it appears to be in good condition but that it had lost
much of its historic appearance. The question is to move forward, whether
the Certificate of Economic Hardship was a viable remedy. Clearly its not a
denial of the use of the property, but is it of a reasonable return is the issue.
Certainly a greater return would accompany use of the barn
Chair Simon wondered if there was some other way to deal with this. They
did not decide through the determination on the COA that the barn could not
be rented, that is not a decision the commission made or a result of their
determination
Commissioner Bodan stated that the City recently adopted changes which
would permit use of the barn as an ADU. If the structure was brought into
compliance, then there would be more income potential
Applicant stated that this was incorrect. Denial of the COA was denial of the
return of the property.
Commissioner Cohen stated that they could assume this was true, that no
return on the previous investment could occur without the barn being able to
be rented. However its clear that this was created through negligence.
Commissioner Cohen stated he didn’t see a way to resolve the issue and
wondered if there was some kind of negotiated position
Public Comment
Vice-Chair Reinhold asked if they could invite public comment. There were
three letters of opposition sent to commissioners by Mr. Sterling.
Vice-Chair Reinhold asked if there was anyone else who would like to speak
toward the application.
i. No response
Deliberation
Vice-Chair Reinhold noted that the recommendation memo provided by staff
states that the applicant could apply for a modified COA that addresses
concerns from the previous denial. This may be a path forward.
Commissioner Dudnik asked if they did issue a Certificate of Economic
Hardship, would the barn still need to meet the original COA, and would it
receive a FCO
i. Mr. Sterling stated that with issuance the applicants issues related to
the Preservation Commission would be resolved but it would not
immediately translate into issuance of an FCO
Commissioner Dudnik asked why that would be the case
i. Mr. Sterling stated that unrelated issues with the City would need to
be resolved
1. Applicant stated this was not true
Commissioner Dudnik asked if hardship was granted, could the barn remain
as it exists currently
i. Mr. Sterling stated he believed it would
Commissioner Cohen asked what they would do with the fact that the
applicant disregarded the directive of the Commission and the precedent that
would be set
i. Mr. Sterling stated that there was some public comment to that point
and that he found the statements to be hyperbolic. The preservation
ordinance would still be enforceable unlike the comments suggested.
The City does not make a great effort to retroactively go after property

Historic Preservation Commission
owners who violate non life-safety codes and that it occurs frequently
-- discovery of non-permitted interventions long after they occurred
and the City works with those property owners with understanding and
flexibility to find negotiated resolution.
ii. Mr. Sterling further stated that he would advise the commissioners to
look at this and all cases individually. There is no precedent that they
are setting, each case is unique. Recommended review of the staff
recommendation memo regarding action and next steps.
Commissioner Cohen asked if the City retroactively enforced building code
violations.
i. Yes, if it’s a life-safety issue
Commissioner Cohen stated that if this was the position the City takes, then
the Preservation Commission should be left out of it, a negotiated settlement
should be agreed to, and the applicant should pay a fine.
i. Mr. Sterling stated agreement and that there is a separate code
section to adjudicate this administratively.
Vice-Chair Reinhold asked Commissioners if someone would like to make a
motion for or against the application.
Commissioner Dudnik stated he had a difficult time seeing the standard being
met if the hardship was simply the cost of restoration and reversal of
alterations.
Commissioner Cohen stated it was also the loss of rental, that’s what the
applicant is claiming
Vice-Chair Reinhold stated that the loss of rental was related to more than
just denial of the COA.
Commissioner Cohen asked if there were any additional code violations
i. Applicant stated no it is compliant and explained further including
discrepancies in surveys
Commissioner Dudnik asked what the tenants use the barn for
i. Tenants use it as workspace and storage
Questions regarding how a FCO would be achieved
i. Mr. Sterling stated that he received conflicting information from that
presented by the applicant and that the COA was only one of a few
issues that would need to be resolved before the covenant restricting
use of the barn and property would be released
Chair Simon stated a preference that the applicant be able to use and rent
the barn, Evanston needs the housing, and the structure looks very nice, it
just doesn’t comply with the approved plans or a historical barn. Would like to
not simply waive all the non-compliant issues via economic hardship, but
would like to pursue Mr. Sterlings recommended path for a modified COA.
Chair Simon stated that the City and the applicant need to find a way to allow
rental of the barn through negotiation and staff recommendations which could
include a modified COA to include some but not all the reversals and
previously approved alterations, not all of which actually benefit the historical
appearance of the barn.
Commissioner Cohen stated agreement. One way to preserve old buildings is
adaptive use, and it is unreasonable that a barn that is converted to a
habitable use continue to look like a barn.
Commissioner Cohen stated that there should be a re-appraisal of the
important historical features which the commission is charged with
preserving. What are those features, and how can we preserve them and
move on.

Historic Preservation Commission
Commissioner Dudnik said it was not appropriate for the Commission to
create a list of features that need to be retained and those which need to
change. Not their role to re-design it.
Commissioner Cohen disagreed and asked what Commissioner Dudnik
would propose to do
Mr. Sterling stated that it may be outside the Commissions purview, but not
outside of what staff could undertake.
Commissioner Dudnik stated that the applicant should propose something
and it be reviewed by the Commission
Commissioner Cohen asked the applicant if that is something he would be
willing to do
i. The applicant went through the differences from existing and previous
approval, noting that most of the deviations are that work that was
approved wasn’t performed. There was less done than approved.
Commissioner Cohen stated that approved plans and a permit is for
execution of those plans. You cannot delete or alter them.
Applicant stated that as Mr. Sterling referenced, it may not be correct, but it is
common to alter the plans, particularly by doing less than what was approved
Commissioner Cohen stated that an amendment then needed to be filed
i. Applicant stated that this was done and approved by Mr. Ruiz
ii. Mr. Sterling stated that the discrepancy is that the applicant believes
this occurred and the City disagrees. Mr. Ruiz affirms that he did not
approve of the modifications. It is the applicants word against Mr.
Ruiz. There is a lack of documentation and institutional knowledge
related to the case since it occurred so long ago.
iii. Applicant states that is not true and that Mr. Gerdes, the building
official, would confirm it
Vice-Chair Reinhold recommended a motion be made.
Commissioners asked if they could determine say that the west elevation was
the most critical and make a plan by which the total cost of reversal be
minimized but that elevation better represent what it was supposed to look
like.
Vice-Chair Reinhold asked if this would be considered
i. Applicant stated yes and gave some history on the previous
discussion by the commission in the 90s.
ii. During the first denial of the COA by this Commission the discussion
was centered around the skylights on the east side and those have
since been removed
Commissioner Cohen asked if they could add a condition to a motion so that
the applicant work with City staff to find a negotiated resolution.
Commissioner Itle stated he would rather it be a friendly suggestion rather
than a condition of the motion.
Commissioner Itle made a motion to grant a Certificate of Economic
Hardship. Second by Commissioner Bodan. The motion failed
unanimously on a roll-call vote.
Commissioner Cohen asked if they could make a separate motion so the
applicant could work with City staff to find a resolution.
Mr. Sterling stated it is something the applicant and staff would discuss after
the meeting and a motion was unnecessary.
Commissioner Dudnik stated his preference that the applicant re-apply for a
COA showing the modifications.
Commissioner Itle stated that was the correct process if alterations were
proposed and the ball was in the applicant’s court to do so.

Memorandum
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
From: Kimberly Richardson, Interim Assistant City Manager
Subject: City of Evanston Racial Equity Update
Date: February 22, 2021
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends the City Council to accept and place the racial equity report.
Council Action:
For Action: Accept and Place on File
Summary:
Evanston residents are stressed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, racial injustice, polarizing
politics, remote learning for students, unemployment, and a fragile economy. The U.S.
Census Bureau reports that one-third of the population is showing signs of anxiety or
depression, a tripling over just the previous year. Restarting our local economy is not only
about returning to normal, it is about refining our City’s approach to engagement with our
communities to acknowledge that many of these stressors existed prior to the multiple
pandemics of COVID-19 and systemic racism.
As city government, Evanston must take a new approach to governance that elevates our
purpose and mission to rebuild the public’s trust and connections to each other. It is a critical
part to acknowledge that prior policies and procedures have institutionally marginalized both
internal and external (employee and resident) stakeholders.
In 2019, the City Council took an important step by passing Resolution 58 -R-19 as a
declaration in support of racial equity and inclusion, and now we enter the next phase where
we take on the slow and laborious job of revising our institutional structures and practices to
deeply reflect these commitments. Staff have begun to build structures and processes of
inclusion that move key socioeconomic indicators in the direction of racial equity, belonging
and collective efficacy (i.e., the confidence and empirical evidence that effective public
servants).
This first update of the year to the City Council focus is on our revised racial equity strategy
by the acknowledgment of previous legislative actions and staff work done within a racial
SP2.Page 133 of 454
equity framework, the launch a multi-year training program to strengthen our organizational
learning culture, and address the need for shared language on racial equity.
Before an update on the City’s efforts to organize and operationalize racial equity, it should
be acknowledged the previous accomplishments and continued work.
Legislative Actions
• Environmental Justice Resolution (72-R-20)
• Establishing a City of Evanston Funding Sources Devoted to Local Reparations (126 -
R-19)
• Commitment to End Structural Racism and Achieve Racial Equity (58-R-19)

• Resident-focused Intake Process
• Community Engagement Strategy
Racial equity practices embedded in the program
• Climate Action and Resilience Plan (CARP)
• Juvenile Administrative Hearings Process
• Creation of Language Access Guidelines
Operationalizing Racial Equity
While the efforts acknowledged above moved the City in normalizing the conversation around
race and actions that lead the way forward to where we are today. As an organization, we
must view racial equity as a tool for how we work collectively and not in in dividual initiative or
program silos. Implementing a racial equity approach requires a fundamental reorientation of
day-to-day administrative activities, which, in turn, requires intentional effort, investment in
resources, training, and building of staff capacity and awareness to foster and facilitate
change.
In order to operationalize racial equity, it must be recognized as both a process and outcome.
As a government, we have to look at the policies and practices that drive outcomes. Also,
because we lead with race it doesn’t make the practice of racial equity is not race exclusive.
Centering race improves outcomes for all.
As an outcome: We achieve racial equity when race no longer determines one’s
socioeconomic outcomes; when everyone has what they need to thrive, no matter where they
live.
As a process: We apply racial equity when those most impacted by structural racial inequity
are meaningfully involved in the creation and implementation of the institutional policies and
practices that impact their lives.

SP2.Page 134 of 454
The City is taking a multi-layered approach to organizational learning and implementation to
operationalize racial equity. This year staff created two internal committees to begin an
internal infrastructure to operationalize racial equity.
Racial Equity and Inclusion (REDI) Committee
The purpose of the REDI committee is to build the capacity of staff to identify, analyze and
improve internal processes that are barriers to achieving racial equity goals that the City has
declared as priorities. The 2021 REDI Committee cohort is made up of 15 staff members
representing all city departments (except the Library).
REDI 2021 Goals
• Learn core concepts and approaches to identifying how racial equity connects to
internal department goal-setting and decision-making.
• Develop pilot projects in a rapid design-centered approach to identify racial equity
operational projects that are viable and impactful.
• Develop a cycle of measurement, collection and analysis grounded in a racial equity
impact framework for internal process improvement.
• Identify key discussions and concepts that must happen in order for the ideas of racial
equity to be translated into the work of responsive service delivery.
• Prepare to incorporate racial equity impact analysis into their internal operations.
Diversity & Inclusion (D&I) Committee
The purpose of the D&I Committee is to create a space for staff to discuss and plan cultural
awareness provide and organization City within our the celebrate to events diversity
professional development opportunities around cultural awareness.
D&I 2021 Goals
• Establish employee resources that will provide a way for employees to share their
thoughts and opinions, while also fostering different cultures, history, ideas, and
innovations.
• Internal events and programs planned throughout the year to increase diverse
engagement and morale.
Next Steps
In order to enact structural change, it is important to develop external partnerships to achieve
systemic change. The City is partnering with YWCA Evanston/Northshore to develop a
comprehensive training program to raise cultural and racial awareness for city employees,
city council members, and boards and commission members. After an initial plan is
developed, staff will work with the Equity and Empowerment Commission to finalize.
Finally, having a shared language is important to this work. Miscommunications make
advancing racial equity even more difficult, so establishing a shared language around key
concepts and terms is crucial. Additional key terms and concepts are in development with the
Equity and Empowerment Commission that will be shared with the City Council and other
boards and commission upon its compeltion.
Page 3 of 4
SP2.Page 135 of 454
Key Equity Terms & Concepts:
Belonging: More than having access. Belonging entails being respected at a basic level that
includes the right to both co-create and make demands upon society.
Equity is giving everyone what they need to be successful.
Equality is treating everyone the same, even if the outcomes are unequal.
Institutional racism is when policies, practices, and procedures work better for non -people
of color, often unintentionally.
Inclusion is allowing members of excluded groups to participate in institutions or
organizations
Racial Equity is closing the gaps so that race can no longer predict one's success, while also
improving outcomes for all.
Structural racism is a racial bias among institutions and across society. It is the cumulative
and compounding effects of historical laws and institutions specifically designed to
disenfranchise and marginalize.

Memorandum
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
From: Kumar Jensen, Chief Sustainability & Resilience Officer
Subject: Climate Action and Resilience Plan (CARP) Implementation Update
Date: February 22, 2021
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends City Council accept and place on file this update on implementation of the
Climate Action and Resilience Plan (CARP).
Council Action:
For Action: Accept and Place on File
Summary:
In 2020, the City and it's partners accomplished many goals related to CARP implementation.
Staff have included some of these accomplishments below, a more full list of actions taken to
implement CARP can be found in the attachment: CARP Actions 2019 -2020.
2020 CARP Accomplishments:
1. Updated electric aggregation program
2. Approved environmental justice resolution
3. Began negotiations of the franchise electric agreement
4. Negotiated new municipal electric agreement
5. Publicly launched Partners for Places grant
6. Added new electric vehicle charging stations for public use
7. Launched the Municipal Operations Zero Emissions Strategy
8. Completed the waste transfer station air quality study
9. Generated new programmatic revenue through fee changes (Infrastructure
Maintenance Fee and Administrative Fee Increase)
These accomplishments and those included in the attachment were made possible by staff
from many City departments and divisions but also because of vital community partnerships
with community organizations and residents. For example, approval of the Environmental
Justice Resolution is a direct result of organizing from Environmental Justice Evanston with
SP3.Page 137 of 454
support from the Environment Board. The Partners for Places grant wouldn't have happened
without support from the Evanston Community Foundation and Chicago Community Trust.
Shifting to the implementation priorities for 2021, staff identified five Ongoing Priorities that
with existing resources and staffing will continue to be implemented.
Ongoing Priorities for 2021
1. Addressing Waste Transfer Station Concerns
2. Continue the Partners for Places Grant
3. Completing the Municipal Operations Zero Emissions Strategy
4. Implement the Environmental Justice Resolution
5. Launch New Aggregation and Community Solar Programs
Below staff have included a short explanation of the next steps required in continuing to move
these five priorities forward.
1. Addressing Waste Transfer Station Concerns
o Staff will continue to work with State and Federal Regulatory officials to come
up with next steps to providing answers to residents concerns and questions.
Staff will seek to identify additional funding to support ongoing investigations.
2. Continue the Partners for Places Grant
o Complete the community engagement and building assessment phases of the
grant. affordable an phases, grant design from information Using earlier
housing retrofit program that addresses the barriers and challenges identified in
the engagement and assessment phases. Identify funding for the program and
any local policy changes that may be required.
3. Completing the Municipal Zero Emissions Strategy
o Finalize the strategy and present to City Council including a set of immediate
actions that the City can take to begin transitioning City buildings and the City's
fleet to low/zero emissions operations. This may include changes to how the
City designs buildings and prioritizing the purchase of electric vehicles.
4. Implement Environmental Justice Resolution
o Continue partnership with community members and organizations to develop an
environmental of community a creation and support map justice the
engagement policy.
5. Launch New Aggregation and Community Solar Programs
o Ensure a smooth roll-out and high participation in new aggregation program
(approved in February, 2021, launch in June, 2021) and the new community
solar program (approved in December, 2020, launch in February, 2021).
Implementing the Ongoing Priorities for 2021 are important to achievi ng CARP goals and
improving services for residents. However, in order to effectively make progress on all of
CARP's CARP to approach holistic and the a needs City goals comprehensive
implementation.
Comprehensive CARP Implementation
Reaching CARP's goals requires a more comprehensive implementation strategy involving
each City department, substantial community engagement and a dedicated funding and
Page 2 of 8
SP3.Page 138 of 454
financing strategy that includes addressing staff capacity challenges. Implementation will
require prioritization and additional resources to support the systems level work required to
both address existing inequities and prepare for the impacts of the climate crisis. Examples of
communities that have taken comprehensive approaches to climate plan implementation
include Denver, COand Ann Arbor, MI, both of which are in the process of funding and rolling
out comprehensive plan implementation. The primary barriers to increased and accelerated
implementation of CARP are funding for programs and policy implementation and staff
capacity.
Expanding and deepening implementation beyond the 2021 Ong oing Priorities should be
strategic and prioritized. In this regard, staff recommends two approaches: 1) Identify one
high impact area, such as buildings, that will have a huge impact on multiple CARP goals but
also support other City goals including affordability, equity, investing in infrastructure and
workforce development and 2) Develop a comprehensive implementation strategy and
resourcing. To this end, City staff have developed an example initiative for approach 1, called
the Building Decarbonization and Workforce Initiative and some high level recommendations
for approach 2.
1. Building Decarbonization and Workforce Initiative
Staff recommend focusing on buildings and workforce development over other areas, such as
waste reduction, for example, because there are already many existing issues with buildings
(deferred maintenance, affordability, high utility bills, etc.) and there are many opportunities to
address those issues while also creating workforce opportunities. It is also clear that focusin g
on buildings and housing is important because:
• Utility expenses make up a significant portion of living expenses, especially for low-
income residents
• Retrofitting buildings generates local economic activity and jobs
• Buildings are local and the City has authority to influence their construction, operations
and ongoing performance
• Any investment in buildings is an investment in Evanston's future
• Buildings are responsible for 80% of Evanston's greenhouse gas emissions
• Retrofitted buildings are quieter, safer, more comfortable, produce lower emissions
and have lower utility bills
This initiative builds off of the City and Evanston Community Foundation's Partners for Places
Grant which seeks to understand the barriers to retrofitting existing affordable housing to a
net-zero emissions and climate resilient standard while maintaining affordability. As barriers
are identified, the City can then develop programs and policies to respond to those barriers
while identifying funding and financing mechanisms to support the substantial investment that
will be required to retrofit the buildings covered by a program.
The initiative would be made up of a combination of programs and policy changes including
three examples provided below:
Program A: New Buildings
Page 3 of 8
SP3.Page 139 of 454
New buildings should be designed so that they do not need to be retrofitted. This can be
done by updating building codes, energy codes and the green building ordinance to prohibit
new natural gas infrastructure in Evanston and mandate net zero em issions building
standards for new buildings as well as reaching other goals such as bird friendly buildings,
increased transportation amenities, electric vehicle readiness, use of reclaimed material, etc.
Of primary concern is that the burning of natural gas in buildings represents close to 40% of
Evanston's annual greenhouse gas emissions. In order for the community to become a
carbon neutral Evanston needs to eliminate natural gas use by 2050, if not sooner. Just as
the City stopped installing lead service lines and is now working to remove them a similar
initiative will be required to eliminate natural gas use in Evanston. The first step is to halt any
new infrastructure.
The City should also provide incentives to early adopters that reach the standard s before
mandates go into effect. There should be additional incentives for developers and builders
that provide workforce development opportunities for Evanston residents, above and beyond
what is required.
Resources Needed: Technical support for staff, funding for incentives and potentially short-
term increase in staffing.
Program B: Existing Buildings Retrofits
Existing buildings need to be retrofitted to: reduce future flood risk, protect from extreme
weather, improve indoor air quality, address life safety concerns, reduce utility bills, improve
comfort, replace lead service lines and remove natural gas infrastructure. These retrofits
should prioritize existing affordable housing and low-income households but remain available
to property owners who do not fall into the categories above.
The City, in partnership with philanthropic institutions, financial institutions, building owners
and tenants will need to create a suite of funded and financed programs and services that
support comprehensive retrofits. Below is one example of this type of program which staff are
calling Accessible Solar.
Accessible Solar
1. Eligibility: Any property in Evanston eligible for on-site solar
2. Program Structure: The City would launch an annual group buy solar program to vet
and select one or multiple solar installers to perform installations in Evanston. Selected
installers would be required to hire graduates of the workforce development trainings.
3. Workforce: In partnership with organizations already providing solar workforce
development the City would offer solar trainings periodically to build up pool of local
qualified solar installers.
4. Incentives: The City would provide incentives that would pay for all or a portion of the
upfront costs associated with solar installations for income qualifying households.
Property tax relief could also be provided as an incentive in addition to or separate
from payment assistance.
5. Financing: For non-income qualifying residents the City would partner with local
financial institutions to negotiate favorable borrowing rates for households with ability
to pay. Additionally, the City could finance installations through a payment program
Page 4 of 8
SP3.Page 140 of 454
similar to the one available for lead service lines. See examples from other
communities here.
6. Funding: The program would need funding to support workforce development and the
incentives for income-qualifying households. Funding could come from a fee or tax
increase or revenue from the City's energy agreements and programs.
7. Maintenance: Although solar panels and their accessories do not require significant
upkeep and maintenance the City should consider creating a maintenance assistance
program for income-qualifying program participants that could help them in the event
of equipment failure or unexpected maintenance costs.
Staff envision a group of programs and initiatives like Accessible Solar that could be grouped
together to allow property owners to do comprehensive building upgrades and retrofits or pick
and choose the ones best suited for their situation. Other types of upgrades tha t could be
considered charging vehicle electric equipment efficiency energy are improvements,
installation, replacement of stormwater or water service lines, etc. In these programs the
City's role is make solar more accessible to all residents but primarily to those who can
benefit the most: low-income and residents in affordable housing.
Resources Needed: Technical support for staff, public and private funding for retrofits,
technical support for building owners, financing options for buildings and addit ional full-time
staff.
Program C: Building Emissions Performance Standard
Providing funding and assistance for buildings to undergo retrofits is vital, but many larger
buildings in particular may require more nuanced approaches to reducing their emission s and
the Large a for account buildings separately. City their address to need will needs
disproportionate amount of greenhouse gas emissions in Evanston. For example, there are
roughly 20 industrial buildings in Evanston that generate the same amount of e lectric
emissions as all 34,000 residential accounts combined.
A Buildings Emissions Performance Standard would require that large buildings (buildings
20,000 square feet and larger, for example) would be periodically required to report their
emissions to the City and meet a standard that would be in line with reaching the City's
emissions reduction goals. The City would provide technical assistance to buildings and
provide reports back to buildings to help them understand how close they are towards
meeting the standard. Buildings that fail to meet the standard would be penalized.
Resources Needed: Additional staffing or consultant support to provide technical assistance
to large buildings.
2. Comprehensive Implementation Strategy with Necessary Resourcing:
The most effective way to implement such a comprehensive plan with impacts on many City
operations and aspects of the community is to develop an implementation strategy that
supports further prioritization, uplifts community needs and clearly outlines the resources
needed to succeed. The first step needed is to increase staff capacity in order to be able to
launch a strategy development process and better connect with and engage community
organizations.
Page 5 of 8
SP3.Page 141 of 454
In addition, many community organizations have been calling on the City and City staff to
take a more comprehensive approach to plan implementation. In the two years since CARP
was adopted community organizations have self-organized to track CARP implementation
throughout the community because the City has been unable to fill that role. These efforts
take hundreds of hours of community members volunteer time and would be better suited if
lead by the City with support and frequent coordination with community organizations.
Finally, a more comprehensive implementation strategy would create a process for
educating, training and supporting existing City staff and departments as they are called on to
directly and strategically implement CARP. Although additional staff are needed, there are
many City staff that are well equipped and positioned to help lead implementation they just
need a strategy to follow, funding and or training and technical assistance. For example, in
order to begin transitioning the City's vehicle fleet to electric and alternative fu els the City
doesn't necessary need to hire additional staff, our existing staff just need access to training
and resources that help them understand the impact of this fleet transformation on their
operations. Another potential solution is to hire technic al assistance to provide staff training
and support in development of strategies as the City makes some of these transitions.
Other Potential Priority Areas:
Beyond the two larger scale initiatives provided above there are numerous other large scale
initiatives and programs that will need to be considered as a part of a comprehensive
implementation strategy. Staff is including a short list of some of those other initiatives that
should be considered:
1. Expand Equitable Access to Transportation Services
2. Identify populations in Evanston that are going to be made more vulnerable by the
climate crisis
3. Conduct a community-wide climate risk and vulnerability assessment
4. Launch a strategic approach to support public transportation services long -term
5. Develop and implement a Universal Waste Services Access Law
6. Develop a Zero Waste and/or Circular Economy community strategy
7. Create a roadmap for electric vehicle adoption community -wide
8. Establish enforceable community-wide air quality monitoring guidelines
9. Expand ecological landscape management practices including increasing urban tree
canopy and resident access to green spaces
Each of the priorities above are important and need to be addressed but even with increased
resources completing all of these at once would be challenging. This above list highlights the
systems-level nature of implementing CARP.
Conclusion:
Effective, equitable and outcome focused implementation of CARP will only be possible
through a comprehensive implementation strategy that is well resourced. The work done to
date to implement the plan has been impactful and meaningful, but has fall en short of
preparing Evanston for the impacts of the climate crisis and reducing Evanston's contribution
to the crisis. Not all aspects of implementation require more resources and staffing, some just
requires better coordination, increased staff training and deeper relationships and trust with
community organizations.

With City Council approval Staff will work with the City Manager to further develop the
outlines for advancing Approaches 1 and 2 and bring back a more detailed set of materials
and recommendations later in the year.

Subject: Approval of Contract with Lake Erie Diving, Inc. for the 54-inch Intake
Heater Cable Replacement (Bid No. 20-54)
Date: February 22, 2021
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute an agreement with
Lake Erie Diving, Inc. (362 Blackbrook Road, Painesville OH 44077) for the 54 -inch Intake
Heater Cable Replacement (Bid No. 20-54) in the amount of $844,118.00.
Funding Source:
Funding for this project is from the Water Fund (Account No. 513.71.7330.65515 -721002),
which has an approved FY 2021 budget of $1,000,000 for this work, all of which is remaining.
Council Action:
For Action
Summary:
The City of Evanston has three raw water intakes that each extend approximately one mile
out from the shore into Lake Michigan. Two of these intakes utilize heating systems at the
intake structures to control the formation of ice in the winter, which can reduce or stop the
flow of water into the treatment plant. The submersible cables that power the heating
systems run from the shore through the intake pipelines to the heating assemblies. High
density polyethylene (HDPE) chlorine feed pipelines associated with existing mussel control
systems are secured to each power cable. On the 54 -Inch intake, the power cable is
malfunctioning heating the and cable the connections several with along between
assemblies.
Work on this project includes replacement of the submersible power cable, the HDPE
pipeline, cable connections, and associated electrical modifications, all of which are needed
to restore both the heating system and mussel control systems to full operation. A bid
A2.Page 181 of 454
alternate was included in the contract documents that includes an upgraded heating cable
with two spare conductors in addition to the six conductors needed for the heating system.
This would provide some additional reliability in dealing with potential future failures in that
the City will have the opportunity to use a spare conductor rather than replacing the entire
cable.
There is a long-lead time for ordering the replacement cable. Actual construction is expected
to take place August 2021 - November 2021 (a long window is provided because variability
in wave action controls the actual dates the contractor is able to work). The contract is
expected to be complete by December 17, 2021.
Analysis:
This contract was advertised for bid on December 17, 2020. On Tuesday, January 26, 2021,
the City received two bids as follows:
See attached Bid Tabulation for breakdown of total bids.
The submitted bids cannot be withdrawn or canceled for a period of sixty (60) calendar days
following the bid opening, or until March 27, 2021. The bids were reviewed by Ron Papa,
Civil Engineer II, and Paul Moyano, Senior Project Manager.
Lake Erie Diving, Inc. is the lowest responsible bidder meeting the project specifications.
Since the bid alternate is relatively inexpensive (less than 3% of the base bid amount) and
provides additional reliability, staff recommends award to Lake Erie Diving, Inc. for the total
base scope of work and the alternate bid amount. Lake Erie Diving, Inc. has previously
completed two intake heater installation projects for the City. The quality of their work has
been satisfactory.
Lake Erie Diving, Inc. is requesting a full waiver to waive the entire 25% utilization goal for the
City’s M/W/EBE program because no sub-contracting opportunities exist and M/W/EBE
participation is impracticable. They have indicated an intention to work with the City to meet
the LEP program requirements. A memo reviewing their compliance has been completed by
Purchasing and is attached.

From: Tammi Nunez, Purchasing Manager
Subject: 54 Inch Intake Heater Cable Replacement, Bid 20-54
Date: February 22, 2021
The goal of the Minority, Women, and Evanston Business Enterprise Program
(M/W/EBE) is to assist such businesses with opportunities to grow. In order to help
ensure such growth, the City has established a 25% M/W/EBE subcontracting
participation goal for general contractors. However, the 54 Inch Intake Heater Cable
Replacement, Bid 20-54, precludes subcontracting opportunities.
Lake Erie Diving, Inc. will be utilizing a crew of certified commercial divers with
specific in-house training; therefore 100% M/W/EBE waiver is granted.

Council Action:
For Action
Summary:
On October 10, 2016, City Council approved a contract for office furniture supply with
Forward Space for three years, starting on January 1, 2017 and ending on December 31,
2019. The not-to-exceed cost of this agreement was $70,000 per year. The agreement
included two optional contract extensions of one -year each. This would be the second one-
year extension.
The agreed cost of furniture is based on a percentage discount from the manufacturer list
price that is provided to all local governments through a national municipal purchasing
cooperative known as the National Joint Powers Alliance (NJPA). NJPA has now changed
their name to Sourcewell. For this one-year extension, Forward Space has agreed to
continue to provide the percentage discount through Sourcewell. Therefore, staff is
A3.Page 185 of 454
recommending that the City execute a one-year extension of the office furniture supply
contract with Forward Space.
The City does not specifically budget for furniture out of one account, but instead requires
individual departments to include the funding within their normal operating budgets. All
furniture purchases are approved by the Assistant City Manager and are managed through a
single project manager in the Bureau of Capital Planning and Engineering to ensure
standardization. Most are small purchases to replace individual pieces of furniture that are
no longer functional.
Legislative History:
On October 10, 2016, City Council awarded the contract for office furniture supply to Forward
Space.
On February 24, 2020, City Council authorized the first one-year extension to the contract.

Summary:
The City of Evanston operates 45 buildings serving a wide variety of functions. Some of these
facilities also serve as heating and cooling centers during extreme weather conditions.
Mechanical equipment in each facility requires ongoing maintenance and rep air and periodic
replacement to ensure system reliability. The three facilities included in this project are
currently in need of select HVAC replacements due to equipment age and condition.
The Police/Fire Headquarters building was built in 1949. The facility is heated with hot water
boilers and cooled with chillers and air handling units with hot and cold coils for air
distribution. Air handling unit (AHU) #1 is located in the Police Station’s basement and
supplies air to the Police Station’s first floor. This unit was installed prior to 2002 (exact age
A4.Page 188 of 454
unknown) and is now scheduled for replacement due to unit inefficiencies and nearly
constant repair needs.
Fire Station 3 was constructed in 2003. The facility is heated with hot water boilers and
cooled with a condensing unit located in an open enclosure at the rear of the building. The
condensing unit is currently scheduled for replacement as a result of a leaking refrigerant coil
and the fact that the unit utilizes R-22 refrigerant (an obsolete and greenhouse gas emitting
chemical).
The Levy Senior Center was constructed in 2001. The facility is heated with three boilers on
the main level distributed by radiators and reheat coils in fan powered boxes throughout the
building. Cooling is provided by two roof top units, and distributed by 34 fan powered boxes
with cooling coils throughout the facility. Both rooftop units are original to the building and are
currently scheduled for replacement due to equipment age and wear. In July 2020, a partial
failure of one of the units made maintaining a comfortable temperature in the Levy Center
challenging for several weeks.
Staff previously bid this work in early 2020. On March 9, 2020, the City Council awarded a
construction contract to Great Lakes Heating and Cooling; however, there was a contract
dispute over the scope of work and the contract was cancelled without the work being
performed. The contract was rebid in summer 2020, but the bids came in substantially over
budget, and staff did not recommend award.
Construction of this project is scheduled to begin in mid -May 2021. The current substantial
completion deadline is October 31, 2021.
The City has successfully used OMNIA Partners (formerly known as U.S. Communities), a
cooperative governmental purchasing program, over the past seven years for roofing and
other miscellaneous exterior envelope repair projects. For the above improvements, the City
solicited pricing from OMNIA’s competitively selected HVAC equipment manufacturer, Daikin.
Using this process, Daikin provides the project’s HVAC equipment at a pre-approved price
while labor is provided by their authorized service provider, Thermosystems. Following
project completion, a full labor and materials warranty will be provided by
Daikin/Thermosystems.
Two bid alternates were included as follows:
• Alternate 1 - Replacement of BAS at Fire Station 3
• Alternate 2 - Installation of refrigeration piping above grade for easy access at Fire
Station 3
Analysis:
On February 11, 2021, staff received a proposal from Thermosystems, LLC through the
OMNIA Partners Cooperative Purchasing process. Pricing for the required improvements is
noted below:
Page 2 of 4
A4.Page 189 of 454
Because the budget allows, staff proposes that Alternate 2 should be awarded. The
proposed budget cannot afford Alternate 1. Therefore, s taff recommends utilizing the OMNIA
Partners Cooperative Purchasing process for this project and awarding the Base Bi d and
Alternate 2 to Thermosystems, LLC in the amount of $930,503. Thermosystems is in
compliance with the City’s M/W/EBE goal and additionally will meet the City’s LEP
requirements. A review of the contractor’s compliance is attached.
Legislative History:
On March 9, 2020, City Council awarded a construction contract for this work, but the
contract was cancelled without the work being performed.

Subject: Resolution 25-R-21, Authorizing the Mayor to Sign the “Invest In Cook”
Intergovernmental Agreement with Cook County
Date: February 22, 2021
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends City Council adoption of Resolution 25-R-21, authorizing the Mayor to sign
the “Invest In Cook” Intergovernmental Agreement with Cook County. This resolution
authorizes the City of Evanston to accept a $500,000 grant from Cook County for the Main
Street Corridor Improvement Project from Maple Avenue to Hinman Avenue.
Funding Source:
The total estimated construction cost for the Main Street Corridor Improvement Project
including construction engineering is $5,704,000. Funding sources for this project include the
Invest in Cook grant, the Chicago-Main TIF fund, general obligation bonds, and other grant
funding sources. A detailed summary is included in the memo below.
Council Action:
For Action
Summary:
The Main Street Corridor Improvement project includes work on Main Street from Maple to
Hinman. The scope of work includes:
• Enhanced pedestrian crosswalks
• ADA improvements
• Shared bike lane markings and bike racks
• Sidewalk improvements
• Traffic signal & streetlight modernization
• Roadway rehabilitation and reconstruction
A8.Page 213 of 454
The Phase I planning for the project is done, and Phase II design engineering is nearing
completion. A separate contract for water main replacement is scheduled for construction in
2021, and the streetscape improvements for this project are anticipated to be constructed in
2022.
The Invest in Cook grant program is funded by Cook County. It is intended to fund projects
that strengthen connections between different forms of transportation, eliminating system
gaps and enhancing safety. The Main Street Corridor Improvement project area includes
both CTA and Metra stations. The project includes improvements specifically targeted at
enhancing pedestrian and bicycle safety throughout the corridor. In addition to the two train
stations, the project area includes a vibrant business district, multi-family housing and Park
School, a District 65 elementary school focused on students that are differently -abled.
Previous to this project, the City has utilized grant funding from the Region al Transportation
Authority to significantly expand bicycle parking adjacent to the CTA and Metra stations.
Detailed Funding Summary:
This project relies heavily on funding from the Chicago -Main TIF; however, a portion of the
project exists outside of the TIF, which has necessitated a mix of funding from other sources.
A detailed breakdown of the funding is shown below.
*If ITEP grant is not received, additional funding will be through a combination of 2022 GO
Bonds and additional funding from the Chicago-Main TIF.
Legislative History:
On 10/22/18, City Council approved the award of the Phase I engineering services

This ordinance modifies the city code in reference to the lead service line replacement
program annuconjunction with in completed the program. replacement main water al
Specially, the ordinance modifies the following aspects of the current program:
• The $50 service fee applied to each loan has been deleted
• The loan amount was modified from being a maximum of $4,800 to the actual amount
of the plumbing costs associated with the replacement of the individual lead water
service pipe
• The City may offer a grant, rather than a loan, to property owners in a census block
group which is in a primarily residential neighborhood where 51% or more of residents

Background:
A10.Page 250 of 454
On February 8, 2021, staff made a presentation to City Council on lead service lines and the
potential temporary higher lead level spikes in the water that can happen as a result of
creating partial lead service lines during a water main replacement project. Staff also made
recommendations on how to increase the participation of property owners to replace their
portion of the lead service line while the City completed the water main replacement project
to avoid the creation of the partial lead service line. Based on the input received from the
City Council, staff is requesting the City Council adopt ordinance 14 -O-21 which will increase
the incentives for the property owner to participate in the lead service line replacement
program.
If the ordinance is adopted, staff will send letters to the property owner affected by the water
main replacement work advising them of the new incentives. The letter will also advise the
property owners of the date and time of a meeting that will be held to address questions and
concerns that the residents might have about the program. Staff is requesting a suspension
of the rules, to introduce and adopt ordinance 14 -O-21 at this Council meeting in order to
provide the property owners that will be impacted by the 2021 water main project with as
much time as possible to to obtain plumbing quotes and hire a plumber to complete the lead
service line replacement.

Subject: Ordinance 9-O-21, Amending Title 10, Chapter 11, Section 12 “Parking
Meter Zones” - Free Parking for Disabled Persons
Date: February 22, 2021
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends City Council adopt Ordinance 9-O-21, amending City Code Section 10-11-
12 “Parking Meter Zones” regarding payment at disabled parking spaces. The Ordinance
allows for free parking in marked disabled parking places for citizens with any color Disabled
placard. Maximum times for the Zone will still be enforced except for disabled persons with a
yellow/grey placard, who may exceed the maximum times posted.
Council Action:
For Action
Summary:
In 2017 the Illinois General Assembly amended the Persons with Disabilities Parking
Program, eliminating automatic free parking for anyone with a Disabled placard. The Illinois
Secretary of State Office currently issues four different placards for persons with disabilities.
Permanently meter-exempt placards are issued to people with permanent disabilities. These
placards are yellow and silver, and per State rules, they are the only placards exempt from
parking meter payments. The other three placards are Non-Meter-Exempt, Permanent (blue),
Temporary (red), and Organizational (green) placards, which do not exempt the vehicles from
paying at metered spaces.
At the January 11, 2021, Administration and Public Works Committee meeting, the committee
decided to continue not charging disabled persons for parking in designated spaces.
Ordinance 9-O-21 notes that disabled persons with a parking placard can park in the
designated spaces for free. However, blue, red, and green placards must still abide by the
maximum time limits for the zone in which they are parked. The yellow and silver placard will
continue to allow for free parking and be exceeded for the time limit. Adding this language to
the Code will make it more clear to customers and staff for enforcement pu rposes.

Subject: Ordinance 12-O-21, Granting a Major Adjustment to a Planned
Development Located at 811 Emerson Street
Date: February 22, 2021
Recommended Action:
Staff and the Plan Commission recommend adoption of Ordinance 12 -O-21 for approval of a
Major Adjustment to a Planned Development at 811 Emerson Street, which was originally
approved by Ordinance No. 37-O-17. The applicant seeks to reduce the required off -street
parking from 174 to 170 due to necessary construction modifications, then make 50% of
those parking spaces (85 parking spaces) available for public use. Should the adjustment be
approved, the following conditions are recommended: 1) that the building residents not be
eligible for on-street parking permits and 2) that the applicant provide the City with building
vehicle ownership data on an annual basis to ensure that building resident demand for
parking is met and reserve the right of the City to require an increase in the number of
parking spaces available for residents.
Council Action:
For Introduction
Summary:
Background
The recently constructed development, located on the north side of Emerson Street adjacent
to the CTA railroad right-of-way and west of the Perlman Apartments building, was approved
on July 11, 2017. The development currently consists of a 9-story mixed-use building with
241 residential units, and 3,300 square feet of commercial space on the ground floor which
houses a 7-Eleven convenience store. The development was also to provide 174 onsite
parking spaces, however, due to necessary construction modifications made to structural
columns, there are currently 170 parking spaces.
P2.Page 269 of 454
Parking and Traffic
The Parking Study, completed by Kenig, Lindgren, O’Hara, Aboona, Inc. (KLOA), concludes
that the proposed parking adjustment will still meet the parking demand of the building
residents. The study provided an analysis of the existing utilization of the 170 parking spaces.
Parking occupancy surveys were done hourly between 7:00 A.M. and 10:00 P.M. October 1
through October 3, 2020 (Thursday through Saturday). At the time of the study, the
apartments were 96% occupied. The results of the parking survey showed that occupancy
over the survey timeframe varied between 37% and 56% with the larger percentage occurring
on Thursday morning due to move-ins. A more detailed breakdown is as follows:
● Peak occupancy on Thursday was 96 vehicles (56%) and occurred at 8:00 A.M. The
occupancy that day ranged between 47% and 56%.
● Peak occupancy on Friday was 84 vehicles (49%) and occurred at 7:00 A.M. and 8:00
A.M. The occupancy that day ranged between 39% and 49%.
● Peak Occupancy on Saturday was 81 vehicles (48%) and occurred at 7:00 A.M. and
8:00 A.M. The occupancy that day ranged between 37% and 48%.
The property is a TOD, located ½ mile from the Davis Street Metra and CTA stations and
approximately one block from the Foster Street CTA station. The building has two car sharing
spaces on-site just off of the adjacent alley and is located in close proxim ity to multiple bus
lines (both Pace and CTA), with the closest bus stop being at the corner of Maple Avenue
and Emerson Street, existing Divvy Bike Stations at Benson Avenue and Church Street, and
Chicago Avenue and Sheridan Road.
At the time the development was approved it was required to have 358 parking spaces and
was granted a site development allowance to provide 174 on -site parking spaces. Per TOD
parking requirements (approved shortly after this development) of .55 spaces per bedroom,
230 total parking spaces would now be required (.95 per dwelling unit). If the request is
approved, the number of on-site parking spaces would be 170, with 85 parking spaces
available to building residents (.35 per dwelling unit and .21 per bedroom) and 85 parking
spaces being available to the public for lease. In the recent past, major adjustments have
been approved for other planned developments to reduce their required parking. The first, E2
Page 2 of 84
P2.Page 270 of 454
at Emerson Street and Maple Avenue, was granted an adjustment to allow 88 o f its 353 on-
site parking spaces to be leased to the public. The second, 1571 Maple Avenue, was granted
an adjustment to reduce the amount of parking spaces required to be leased from the city
from 101 to 50. That development has 12 on-site parking spaces.
Per condition (F) of Ordinance 37-O-17, the applicant was to provide a traffic study analyzing
the turning movements in the west access drive adjacent to the CTA railroad property,
including analysis of any traffic incidents adjacent to the subject property. This study was
submitted on January 5, 2021 and also takes into account the possible conversion of 85
parking spaces to public parking. Also per the study, “to determine Year 2020 pre -COVID-19
base traffic conditions, the through traffic volumes were adjusted based on the traffic counts
conducted by KLOA, Inc. in February 2017” for original traffic impact study. The study found
that the development generates less traffic than was originally projected in the traffic impact
study and has limited impact on the intersection at Benson Avenue and Emerson Street.
Additionally, when assuming the conversion of parking spaces to public use, the access drive
will still adequately accommodate traffic generated by the development.
Compliance with the Zoning Ordinance
The completed building has provided additional housing options and maintained the 7 -Eleven
convenience store in the area north of downtown. The planned development was approved
with site development allowances related to number of dwelling units, heigh t, floor area ratio,
number of parking spaces, building setbacks and location of loading and the transformer. The
proposed adjustment would modify a condition of approval by reducing the number of
required parking spaces by 4 spaces and open 50% of those r emaining spaces to be leased
by the public on a daily, monthly or yearly basis.
Compliance with the Comprehensive Plan
The proposed Adjustment to the Planned Development is consistent with the 2000
Comprehensive General Plan.
The proposal is still largely consistent with the Plan’s policy/action to encourage mass -transit
and bicycle ridership as alternatives that reduce automobile parking demand. The building
itself is a transit oriented development (TOD) that is near Metra and CTA stations and various
bus routes. Car-sharing spaces on-site also encourage less vehicle ownership of the
building’s residents as does the bicycle parking provided on-site for 166 total bicycles (18
open exterior spaces and 148 interior spaces for residents). Given the short t ime since the
building has been at full occupancy and the lower proposed ratio of parking spaces to
residential units, staff does believe that there should be reporting mechanisms and some
protections in place. Though vehicle ownership is generally trendin g downward, there is a
possibility staff mind, in this With building. in within ownership vehicle shifts for the
recommends that should the proposed adjustment be approved, conditions are placed which
maintain that the residents not be eligible for on-street parking permits (as stated within the
original ordinance) and that the applicant provide the City with building vehicle ownership
data on an annual basis to ensure that building resident demand for parking is met.
Compliance with the 2009 Downtown Plan
The proposed adjustment relates to the following objective within the downtown plan:
Page 3 of 84
P2.Page 271 of 454
Objective 5: Maintain a Strong Multi-Modal Transportation System
maintains requirement parking consto adjustment proposed The the the with istency
strategies: 1) “Encourage more residents and visitors to use transit to and from downtown,
including possibly changing parking ratios for new development near the train stations” The
number of parking spaces will be slightly reduced and provide an opportunity for other
neighborhood residents and visitors to have access to parking spaces. As stated above, staff
does recommend keeping parking restrictions established in Ordinance 37 -O-17 and that the
applicant provide additional information regarding parking occupancy and vehicle ownership
on an annual basis, should the adjustment be approved.
Standards of Approval
The proposed development shall follow the procedures for Adjustments to Development Plan
in Section 6-3-6-12. It must maintain the planned development’s satisfaction of the Standards
for a Special Use (Section 6-3-5-10), the Standard for Planned Development (Section 6-3-6-
9) Planned C1a the in for Developments guidelines and standards and established
Commercial Mixed-Use District. (Section 6-10-1-9).
Standards for Special Use (Section 6-3-5-10)
The development and corresponding site development allowances were approved in June of
2017. There are no new physical or use changes proposed for the site except for the
reduction of parking by 4 spaces due to the widening of structural columns. Therefore, no
impacts architectural or features environmental utilities, to with expected are regards
resources. The existing building is a TOD with a number of transportation options available
within a short distance. The opening of parking spaces to the public may provide availability
of additional on-street parking spaces by providing a covered parking option for visitors and
nearby residents.
Standards and Guidelines for Planned Developments in C1a District (Sections 6-3-6-9 and 6-
10-1-9)
The recently completed planned development was found to be in harmony and comply with
general purposes and the intent of the Zoning Ordinance. As well, it is compatible in bulk,
scale and land use with surrounding properties. The proposal maintains this compatibility.

A. Major Adjustment to a Planned Development – 811 Emerson St 20PLND-0084
CA/Focus Evanston Property, applicant, submits for major adjustment to a
planned development, 811 Emerson Planned Development, approved by City
Council on July 11, 2017, Ordinance No. 37-O-17. The planned development
was approved with 174 off-street parking spaces. The applicant seeks to
reduce the required off-street parking from 174 to 170 due to necessary
construction modifications then make 50% of those parking spaces (85
parking spaces) available for public use, in the C1a Commercial District.
Ms. Jones clarified that there are no new physical changes proposed with this request
which affects the existing development. She then provided a summary of the approved

and constructed Planned Development located at 811 Emerson. The current
constructed development was approved for 174 parking spaces, seeking 170 on -site
spaces and ability to make up to 50% of the parking spaces available to be leased by
the public. Staff recommends approval with conditions: residents not eligible for on -
street parking permits, and that the applicant provides vehicle ownership data to ensure
that building parking demand is met.
Commissioner Halik asked for more information for TOD parking requirements. Ms.
Jones provided details on the requirements which were implemented after a 2017 TOD
Parking Study was complete and reduces requirements for developments near transit
stations.
Ms. Katriina McGuire provided an overview of the applicant’s request and emphasized
underutilized parking for the development after occupancy was achieved.
Chair Isaac inquired how availability is going to be relayed to the public. Vic Howell
responded that that has yet to be finalized. Similar to what E2 has done down the street
on Emerson with their public parking. Signage may be added as needed
Commissioner Draper asked for clarification on the number of parking spaces being
used. Mr. Howell clarified that the larger number noted in the study was from move -in
weekend. The data shared is for actual parking leases. The ground level does not have
any access gates but there are gates to the underground and mezzanine levels.
Infrastructure additions are being discussed currently to add gates.
Chair Isaac asked for questions from the public and there were none. He then asked
for comments from the public and there were none. The Commission then began
deliberation.
Chair Isaac inquired how annual reporting will work. Ms. Jones replied that staff will
obtain an annual report analyzing parking usage and see if any adjustments may be
needed to the number of available parking spaces. Staff may also listen for possible
complaints if they arise and make adjustments if needed.
Chair Isaac then asked how the wheel tax is enforced. Ms. Nyden provided clarification
that staff is provided information from the secretary of state for vehicles registered in
Evanston.
Chair Isaac stated that there are two things being asked: re duction in parking spaces to
170 due to construction modifications which is a common occurrence and he would
agree with, and opening some parking spaces to the public.
Commissioner Lindwall stated that the area is heavily parked with students and if they
can be encouraged to use covered parking that is a win-win for the City. 170 spaces
currently exist so that should be approved; the applicant controls the spaces and
programming can be adjusted to accommodate building tenants so this is a reasonable

request. Commissioner Draper concurred and added that this an interesting case study
on requests for reduced parking in TOD areas.
Chair Isaac reiterated that the project was approved before the TOD Parking Study.
There was concern of alley use due to Sherman Gardens residents needing to access
their parking spaces behind the building; there has not been much engagement from
those residents on this item.
The Commission then reviewed the standards and found applicable standards were
met. Some standards were not applicable due to no physical changes being proposed.
Some discussion occurred on the vehicular access points and traffic flow. Mr. Howell
clarified that there are access control points at the mezzanine level to prevent outside
access (using key fob) to residential levels. Public access t o elevators and stairwells
exit to the street.
Lindwall moved approval of staff recommendation. Seconded by Draper. A roll
call vote was taken and the motion was approved unanimously, 6-0.

SECTION 1 PROJECT NARRATIVE
The Applicant, CA/Focus Evanston Property Owner, LLC (“CA/Focus”), is the owner of the
subject property, located at 811 Emerson Street.
The requested major adjustment is for the existing mixed-use building, which was approved as a
Planned Development pursuant to Ordinance No 37-O-17 approved by the Evanston City
Council on July 11, 2017.
The existing building contains 241 apartments, ground floor retail, and 170 parking spaces.
Currently, four (4) parking spaces on the ground floor are allocated to the retail use. There are
also two (2) parking spaces along the alley that are set aside as car share spaces.
The project was approved with 174 parking spaces. However, column defects were discovered
on site which required some existing steel columns to be wrapped in concrete and fireproofed.
As a result, some modifications to parking stalls had to be made, reducing the overall parking
amount to 170 spaces. Additionally, the Applicant seeks to allow up to 50% of the existing
parking spaces to be available for public use.
As of September 13, 2020, the building is fully stabilized. KLOA conducted a parking
utilization study in October 2020 to determine the number of residential parking spaces used at
various days and times. At that time, the building was 96% occupied. Based on the study,
parking utilization remained below 50% with the exception of October 1, when peak occupancy
exceeded 50% due to apartment move ins.
The Applicant seeks to make 50% of the parking spaces available to the public. This allows
demand for public parking in the area to be satisfied within the existing building rather than
having empty parking spaces. Finally, it is anticipated that putting the underutilized parking
spaces to use will generate approximately $14,000 annually in parking tax revenue for the City
of Evanston.
Residents of the building would not be permitted to obtain residential on-street parking permits.
Additionally, the Applicant shall provide the City of Evanston with building vehicle ownership
data on an annual basis to ensure that demand for parking for the apartments is met.

SECTION 2 STATEMENTS ADDRESSING RELIEF STANDARDS
STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE WITH ZONING ORDINANCE AND OTHER
PERTINENT CITY POLICIES
Statement addressing the development’s compliance/any other pertinent city planning and
development policies regarding the following:
The amendment is in compliance with the “2000 Evanston Comprehensive General Plan,”
adopted May 8th, 2000 (“Comprehensive Plan”) by the City Council as set forth below.
A.Promoting Use of Mass Transit and Pedestrian-Friendly Development
The Comprehensive Plan states the following:
“Promote higher-density residential and mixed-use development in close proximity
to transit nodes (e.g., train stations) in order to support non-automobile dependent
lifestyles.” (Comprehensive Plan, page 108).
The Subject Property is located within walking distance of two “L” stops and one Metra
stop. By providing ample bicycle parking and on-site car sharing spaces, the amendment
is designed to support non-automobile dependent lifestyles.
“New developments should be integrated with existing neighborhoods to promote
walking and the use of mass transit.” (Comprehensive Plan, page 8).
The Subject Property is located within a five-minute walk (1320-ft radius) from various
retail stores and restaurants. As such, the proposed development promotes walkability
within the neighborhood, and reduces the demand for excess parking for residents.
Proximity to transit stations creates some demand for public parking for commuters that
do not live within walking distance to the stations.
The Subject Property is located directly to the east of the CTA rail line, one block from
the Foster “L” stop, three blocks from the Davis “L” stop, and three blocks from the
Evanston Metra stop. In addition, the 93 CTA bus stops on the corner of Maple Avenue
and Emerson Street, one block from the site. As such, the proposed development promotes
the use of mass transit.
“New land development can take advantage of renewed interest in pedestrian and
transit orientation. For example, slightly higher density residential and
residential/commercial mixed-use buildings can be desirable additions along major
corridors already very accessible to mass transit.” (Comprehensive Plan, page 8).
The Subject Property is located on a site with convenient accessibility to the CTA purple
“L” line and is two blocks away from the Green Bay Road corridor, along which the Metra
Page 60 of 84
P2.Page 328 of 454
line runs. Further, the property is in a pedestrian-friendly location, in a transit oriented
development area desirable to residents who prefer to walk to campus or downtown.
Therefore, the proposed development will take advantage of the renewed interest in
pedestrian and transit orientation and promote public transportation versus vehicular
traffic.
The development includes a ground floor convenience store use, which provides
pedestrian-accessible convenience retail for the building residents and further reducing
their demand for a car.
“Promote biking to enhance the character of the community, retail viability, and
health of citizens.” (Comprehensive Plan, page 109).
The development currently provides ample room to store residents’ bicycles in a well-lit
and inviting bicycle storage room with a bike repair station, encouraging biking as a means
of transportation. The number of bicycle parking spaces provided will meet the
requirements of the City of Evanston code and LEED Silver guidelines.
STATEMENT OF SITE CONTROLS AND STANDARDS FOR PLANNED
DEVELOPMENTS
Statement addressing the site controls and standards for planned developments in the subject
property’s zoning district regarding the following:
The requested major adjustment is to a previously-approved planned development. The only
requested change is to the parking requirements reflected in the approval ordinance. The
applicant seeks to modify the approved number of spaces from 174 to 170 which was the result
of structural changes to building columns. As to the request to allow spaces to be used for public
parking, the requested modification will allow for an already existing and underutilized parking
garage to be used to meet community parking needs. As shown in in the enclosed parking
utilization study, the garage is less than 50% occupied, despite the building being fully-occupied
occupied as of mid-September 2020. Therefore, there is excessive parking available on the
property.
No other zoning or site controls are being modified.

STATEMENT OF DEVELOPMENT ALLOWANCES FOR PLANNED
DEVELOPMENTS
Statement addressing the development allowances for planned developments in the subject
property’s zoning district regarding the following:
Parking
The requested adjustment is to a previously-approved planned development. The
only requested change is to the parking requirements reflected in the approval
ordinance. The reduction of spaces from 174 to 170 was required due to
structural changes required for columns within the building. Additionally,
allowing spaces to be used for the public will allow for an already existing and
underutilized parking garage to be used to meet a community parking need. The
requested relief will have no adverse effects on residential uses within or
adjoining the development or the overall neighborhood.

DATE: November 17, 2020
SUBJECT: Parking Study
811 Emerson Street
Evanston, Illinois
This memorandum presents the findings and recommendations of a parking occupancy survey
conducted by Kenig, Lindgren, O’Hara, Aboona, Inc. (KLOA, Inc.) at the parking garage serving
the residential development located at 811 Emerson Street in Evanston, Illinois. The development
provides 241 apartment units, a three-level parking garage with a total of 170 parking spaces and
ground floor retail space that is occupied by a 7-Eleven. The purpose of this evaluation was to
determine the utilization of the parking garage.
Parking Occupancy Surveys
Parking occupancy surveys were conducted at the parking garage on Thursday through Saturday,
October 1 through 3, 2020. The counts were conducted in one-hour intervals from 7:00 A.M. to
10:00 P.M. and the parking occupancy surveys were classified by type of space. It should be noted
that at the time the parking occupancy surveys were conducted, the apartment development was
96 percent occupied. The parking occupancy surveys are summarized in Tables 1 through 3 for
each day. It should be noted that the two-alley car share parking spaces were not included in the
parking occupancy surveys. However, these parking spaces will be utilized as car sharing services,
and as such, are either a reserved space for the car share vehicle being utilized or will be occupied
by the car share vehicle. Therefore, in order to provide a conservative evaluation of the parking
supply, the two alley parking spaces were assumed to be occupied during the study period.

Parking Occupancy Results
The results of the parking occupancy surveys indicated the following:
• The parking occupancy on Thursday ranged from 81 to 96 vehicles (47 to 56 percent
occupied).
• The parking occupancy on Friday ranged from 66 to 84 vehicles (39 to 49 percent
occupied).
• The parking occupancy on Saturday ranged from 61 to 81 vehicles (37 to 48 percent
occupied).
• Peak occupancy on Thursday was 96 vehicles (56 percent) occurring at 8:00 A.M. resulting
in a surplus of 74 parking spaces.

CC: Johanna Nyden, Community Development Director
Subject: Ordinance 11-O-21, Extending the Time for the Applicant to Obtain a
Building Permit for 910-938 Custer Ave.
Date: February 22, 2021
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends adoption of Ordinance 11-O-21 to extend the time frame for the
commencement of construction of the Planned Development at 910-938 Custer Ave.,
originally approved on April 8, 2019, and previously granted a one -year extension to April 13,
2021. The Ordinance would grant an extension of 18 months for a building permit to be
issued and construction to begin. No other changes to the existing Planned Development are
proposed.
Council Action:
For Introduction
Summary:
On April 8, 2019, City Council approved Ordinance 22-O-19 granting approval of the Planned
Development for construction of 40 townhomes. The development included eight site
development allowances (number of dwelling units, building height, rear yard setbac k,
townhouse orientation, balcony front yard setback, balcony side yard setback, balcony rear
yard setback, landscape strip). The Planned Development was approved 6-1 by City Council.
Per Ordinance 22-O-19, the applicant had one year, until April 8, 2020, to obtain a building
permit and start the construction of the project, and two years to complete the project from
the time of building permit issuance.
Kevin Lee, property owner, intended to sell the approved development rights to a different
developer and was working towards that goal when a key member of the development team
passed away. The sale of the development rights fell through shortly thereafter so the
Planned Development was granted a one-year extension to April 13, 2021. The property
owner now requests an additional extension due to COVID-19 related development setbacks.
P3.Page 353 of 454
An 18 month extension would give the property owner until October 13, 2022, to obtain a
building permit.
The applicant has not requested any adjustments to the approved Plann ed Development and
intends for the property to develop as approved. Staff is not aware of any objections to the
extension request.
Legislative History:
February 2019 13, - map accompanying (and Planned Development The proposed
amendment) was unanimously recommended for approval by the Plan Commission as
presented by staff with additional conditions of 1) removal of 2 parking spaces on the north
side of Main St. at Custer Ave., and 2) the developer will continue to work with staff on the
building design facing Custer Ave.
March 11, 2019 - The proposed Planned Development (and accompanying map amendment)
was unanimously approved for introduction at P&D and City Council.
April 8, 2019 - The proposed Planned Development (and accompanying map amendment
and easement resolution) were approved by City Council 6-1.
March 9, 2020 & April 13, 2020 - A one-year extension to the Planned Development was
unanimously approved by City Council.

From: Meagan Jones, Neighborhood and Land Use Planner
CC: Johanna Nyden, Community Development Director
Subject: Ordinance 13-O-21, A Zoning Text Amendment to Permit the
Establishment and Regulation of Efficiency Homes
Date: February 22, 2021
Recommended Action:
Plan Commission and staff recommend City Council adoption of Ordinance 13-O-21, A
Zoning Text Amendment to Permit the Establishment and Regulation of Efficiency Homes.
This establishes a definition for Efficiency Homes (Section 6 -18-3) and establish regulations
for their construction and use within residential districts (Section 6 -8; Section 6-16). Alderman
Fiske requests suspension of the rules for Introduction and Action of this item at the February
22, 2021 meeting.
Council Action:
For Introduction and Action
Summary:
Background
Tiny Homes (Efficiency Homes) have increased in popularity in recent years. Initially viewed
simply as mobile homes, more permanent small residences have been constructed as an
alternative to a “regular sized” home. Staff has fielded a variety of inquiries in recent years
regarding tiny homes that could be permanently located on small or odd -shaped lots that are
otherwise challenging to build on. The applicant, Andrew Gallimore, submitted for a zoning
text amendment in 2020 in order to establish a definition and regulations for this type of
residence.
The Commission and Committee held discussions on the proposal and provided feedback
which included needing to have additional information on possible suitable lots for this type of
home, clarifying the ability to subdivide existing lots to build on and providing clarification on
bulk standards and the approval process. Staff has worked with applicant to provide the
revised proposal as presented below.
P4.Page 390 of 454
The applicant provided a map, displayed below, which sho ws the locations of irregular lots
that could be built on. The information used is based on Cook County Assessor data for
vacant lots which the applicant then cross referenced with available City data on parcel sizes
and current uses. For the purposes of the list, the lot size was limited to 3,300 sq. ft. and
smaller with the average lot size being 2,887 sq. ft.. This resulted in 35 properties dispersed
throughout Evanston.
Proposal Overview
Definitions
Per discussions held in the previous Plan Commission and Zoning Committee meetings,
alternative names for Tiny Homes were discussed as was language explicitly prohibiting
certain uses sometimes associated with this type of housing, which has been added to the
proposed definition, specifically:
Section 6-18-3. Definitions
Page 2 of 41
P4.Page 391 of 454
Bulk Regulations
Since Efficiency Homes are intended for small or odd shaped lots that are otherwise
challenging to build on, and since Efficiency Homes by (proposed) definition are small in size,
bulk zoning regulations should be adjusted. Regulations are proposed to be similar to the
setbacks and height required for coach houses or ADUs since they are substantially similar in
impact, although they could be located on different portions of the lot as a primary structure.
Variations are likely on these smaller lots even with reduced bulk requirements. Since
variations may increase impact on adjacent properties where bulk requirements are already
reduced for Efficiency Homes, a Special Use should be required for any deviat ion requested
from the Efficiency Home bulk regulations at the time of original development. This means
there would never be a new proposed Efficiency Home that requests Major or Minor
Variations and instead would require a Special Use determined by the Ci ty Council for any
Efficiency Home that does not comply with all zoning regulations.
A new section would be created within Chapter 8- Residential Districts which would provide
detailed regulations regarding height, setbacks and lot coverage, specificall y:
6-8-1-14.- Efficiency Homes
(A) Number of Dwelling Units per Zoning Lot: One Efficiency Home shall be permitted
as a principal use on a zoning lot, regardless of lot size, width, or shape, in all
residential zoning districts except as specified in Section 6-4-1-6 of this Title.
(B) Zoning Relief: Any zoning relief requested in conjunction with the initial new
construction of a Efficiency Home development shall be considered as one
special use and shall not require major variation approval. Efficiency Homes may
request zoning relief by major or minor variation following the completion of the
initial development construction.
(C) Yard Requirements:
Page 3 of 41
P4.Page 392 of 454
(D) Maximum Building Height: The maximum building height for any Efficiency Home
shall not exceed twenty-eight (28) feet, measured from grade to the highest point
of said structure, or two stories, whichever is less.
(E) Building Lot Coverage and Impervious Surface: The maximum building lot
coverage and impervious surface coverage shall comply with the maximum
allowable amount in the underlying zoning district.
Permitted and Special Uses - Residential Zoning Districts
This type of single-family dwelling is proposed to be added as a permitted use within all
residential zoning districts and as a special use if additional zoning re lief is being sought from
bulk regulations outlined above. Sections 6-8-2-3.- Permitted Uses and 6-8-2-4.- Special
Uses (for R1 Single-Family Residential District) are provided below as an example of how
this listing would appear. Since individual Efficien cy Homes are attractive as naturally
occurring lower-cost housing, they should be Permitted Uses that do not require special
applications, other all meeting when time zoning and process, City fees, speculation
regulations.

Chapter 16 – Off-Street Parking and Loading
The initially proposed parking requirement called for one parking space per dwelling unit and
no on-site parking for dwelling units constructed on lots that are located 1,500 feet or less
from a transit stop. The Commission discussed the possibility of further re ducing this
requirement or having no parking requirement at all; however, the Commission was in
general agreement for keeping the parking requirement for this type of dwelling as originally
proposed below.

P4.Page 394 of 454
Standards for Approval
The Plan Commission found that the proposed adjustment to the planned development met
the standards of approval for text amendments. The proposed text amendment takes into
account the following relevant goals, objectives, and policies of the Comprehensive General
Plan:
• Maintain Appealing Character of Evanston Neighborhoods While Guiding Their
Change
• Address Concerns about Housing Cost and Affordability
The proposed text amendment would help to further the goal of providing a variety of housing
as well as creating affordable housing options. A smaller scale home may be within a closer
financial reach than the typical Evanston single family home. While most new construction
single family homes sell in the $750,000 range, new construction Efficiency Homes could sell
in the $250,000 - $300,000 range, which is a home price point for the missing -middle income
group in Evanston that does not qualify for affordab le housing but cannot afford typical
market rate housing.
The proposed text amendment also provides a way to build housing on small and irregular
shaped lots that already exist in the City and are often viewed as unbuildable, which would in
turn increase the tax base for the City.
As this type of housing would be infill housing, public facilities and services would likely
already exist and would just need to be extended to the structure so that the Efficiency Home
fits seamlessly into the neighborhood similar to a coach house or ADU. Efficiency Homes
requiring additional zoning relief would face Special Use approval to ensure their impact to
adjacent properties and the surrounding neighborhood would be mitigated.
Legislative History:
January 27, 2021– Following additional discussion, the Plan Commission voted, 6 -0, to
recommend approval of the proposed text amendment. Plan Commission Packet from
January 27, 2021
November 11, 2020- The Zoning Committee continued discussion on the proposed text
amendment and requested additional information regarding possible effected lots. The
Page 6 of 41
P4.Page 395 of 454
Committee then voted to send the item back to Plan Commission pending, inclusion of the
additional requested information.
August 12, 2020 – The Plan Commission began discussion on the text amendment and voted
to send the proposal to the Zoning Committee.

A. Text Amendment – Tiny Homes 20PLND- 0038
Andrew Gallimore submits for a Text Amendment to the Zoning Ordinance,
Title 6 of the City Code, to establish a definition for Micro Dwelling Units

within residential districts (Section 6-8; Section 6-16).
Ms. Jones provided an overview of the revisions made to the text amendment since the
Page 25 of 41

Page 2 of 3
Plan Commission Minutes 1/27/21
earlier Plan Commission and Zoning Committee meetings including removal of sections
proposed for more than one home on a lot (which would be revisited in the futu re),
removing the minimum 700 sq. ft. lot coverage, keeping the standard street side -yard
setback and clearly prohibiting mobile homes and recreational vehicles.
Mr. Andrew Gallimore, the applicant, provided additional details on the proposal, and
reviewed the previous discussion of lots this would apply to. He mentioned the eco -
friendliness of proposed dwellings as well as the lower costs to build and purchase
Commissioner Lindwall asked what the rationale was for the 500 sf footprint in the
definition. Mr. Gallimore responded that this came from a comparison of other existing
regulations, consideration of the space needed for inhabitants and current building
plans for this type of home.
Chair Isaac opened the meeting to questions from the public. Hearing none, he then
opened the hearing to public comment.
Mr. Robinson Markus of Evanston Development Cooperative explained that the data
points on map do not include City Owned lots and that they could also be eligible for
affordable housing. He is in support of the zoning change.
Chair Isaac then closed the hearing and the Commission began deliberation
Commissioner Hewko asked if there was still consideration of a name change. Ms.
Jones responded that it was still on the table to discuss. Mr. Gallimore responded that
he thought of “starter homes” but that these types of homes could also be for different
members of the population. A brief discussion followed with suggestions of efficiency
dwelling, micro house, and efficiency homes.
Commissioner Draper inquired if the 500 sf footprint is needed. Commissioner Lindwall
stated that 700 sf could be a normal sized home though, with certain lot sizes, the
house footprint can be limited. Mr. Gallimore stated that the goal was to keep the
homes affordable and at a smaller scale. Chair Isaac clarified that 500 sf is for the
ground floor only and additional sf could be added with a 2nd level.
Commissioner Lindwall expressed concern over the small rear yard setback and if it
was possible to increase. Chair Isaac asked if irregular lots are typically narrower or if
they have a short depth. Mr. Gallimore responded they are typically narrower.
Chair Isaac added that these homes are likely to be smaller than ADUs and there is no
need to treat them differently. Will likely not see many cases with a small rear yard as
more people would likely want rear yard space.
Commissioner Hewko pointed out a typo in the staff report for the side yard setback.
The Commission then discussed the standards for approval and found they all had
Page 26 of 41

Plan Commission Minutes 1/27/21
been met. Some additional discussion occurred on property values due to disparity of
home cost. It was agreed that this would not be prevalent enough to change the
character of a neighborhood or block and would turn vacant property into needed
homes.
Commissioner Draper moved to recommend approval of the text amendment to
the Planning & Development Committee of the City Council. Commissioner
Lindwall seconded the motion. A roll call vote was taken and the motion passed
unanimously, 6-0.

Hi Meagan.
I had a nice word document which was apparently too large to send over. However I didn’t want to delay sending you this
info so please excuse the crudeness.
Basically I think there are a lot of small underutilized lots in Evanston that could be developed into small starred homes or
efficient dwellings. I think this would be great for young couples, downsizing seniors, economically disadvantaged
residents, and many others.
I also have a family situation that makes this a very passionate issue to me.
Attached is a letter describing why I feel this is an important issue and why I chose To apply for this amendment. Also
there are some example tiny house elevations, a survey of my small lot as Well as some interior layouts of something that
I would like to build.
I could certainly put something more professional together but I think you get the idea for now. I guess let me know if you
have any questions and we can talk further at your convenience. Again I would appreciate any help, Especially with the
specifics you need for the application.
Also here’s a couple paragraphs that somehow got omitted from question to part C of the application “ Utilizing these
currently unbuildable lots would help to increase the tax base. Since these smaller homes are ideally sized
for single person households and older people looking to downsize, these Properties will add to the tax
base without creating a drain on the schools.
This type of development will also help to fill a void for the “Missing Middle” by creating a housing type/price
point otherwise unavailable in new construction”
Thanks again and I look forward to hearing back from you soon.

Council Action:
For Action
Summary:
Economic Development Committee and staff recommend City Council approval of financial
assistance totaling $18,000 to Haliburton Funeral Chapel located at 1317 Emerson Street for
exterior and 1975 in represChapel Funeral Haliburton's rehabilitation. opened a ents
declining, but important business that serves Evanston's Black community with African -
American "homegoing" ceremonies, memorial services, cremation, and burial services.
In November of 2018, The Evanston City Council honored Mr. Nathan Haliburton Jr.'s
commitment 103Evanston passing by to resolution -R-Portion that "Designating 18 of
Emerson Street between Wesley Avenue and Asbury Avenue with the honorary street name
sign "Nathan Haliburton Jr. Way." Specifically, the resolution recognized Mr. Haliburton as "a
steward to families in the grieving and decision making process; showing compassion,
insight, comfort and helping hands"...for over "43 years as he served as the funeral director of
the chapel."
E1.Page 431 of 454
Mr. Haliburton reports that he has received a city code violation as a result of a neighbor
contacting the city to report that the parapet wall appeared to require repair. City inspectors
agreed. Mr. Haliburton is seeking financial assistance to make the repairs due to financial
hardship. Attached is a quote from Lime Builder's submitted by Mr. Haliburton summarizing
the scope of work totaling $18,400 including parapet, chimney, and coping tiles. Mr.
Haliburton is seeking two additional quotes. Due to COVID and recent weather conditions,
contractors have not been responsive.
Staff recommends approving a loan totaling up to $18,000, 50% ($9,000) of which will be
forgivable. The loan amount may be less depending upon additional quotes received The
funding assistance will allow Evanston to retain a long-term business in Evanston who has
provided a vital service to the Black community. Mr. Haliburton has helped those in most
financial need by providing low-cost or even no cost services. While this is not a traditional
economic development initiative providing a direct financial return in the form of sales tax or
job growth, it's important to recognize Haliburton's impact on the quality of life in Evanston
and the importance of maintaining / retaining our diverse culture.
The terms of the loan will be 60 months at 5% interest. Bankrate.com reports personal loan
or home equity loan interest rates in the range of 5.25% - 5.99%. If the property is sold prior
to the loan termination date, the remaining loan balance will be due in full. The loan will b e
recorded. All repair work must be submitted through the City of Evanston's Building Division
and receive all building permits. Staff will release 50% of the funding upon building permit
approval and the remaining 50% upon final inspection of the work.
Black Funeral Industry Background
Black-owned community funeral homes are in decline nationwide. As highlighted in an
Atlantic article titled "The Disappearance of a Distinctively Black Way to Mourn" from January
26, 2016, "as many African American-owned funeral homes close, the communities they
serve are losing centuries-old means of grieving--and protest." It also states that "for more
than a century, Black funeral directors have been serving Black communities keeping African
American funeral traditions alive. But now...after withstanding segregation and prospering
through it, are struggling to survive as market forces change."
According to the same article, Black-owned funeral homes were excluded from the major
industry association in 1912, resulting in segregation of the funeral industry that was further
exacerbated by Jim Crow laws. The Black "homegoing" tradition expanded during this era as
a way to elaborately honor the dead. These homegoing celebrations can by expensive.
In recent years, Americans generally have shifted to the more cost effective cremation option
which cuts into funeral home profits, especially small, independently -owned Black funeral
parlors. Furthermore, being community-based it's not uncommon for Black funeral home
owners to provide lower cost services to accommodate their neighbor's needs. Cost -effective
cremations cut into the profits for funeral homes—one of many challenges family-owned firms
are facing.
These cost constraints and the slow erosion of the elaborate homegoing tradition is resulting
in a decline of these important community businesses. According to The Guardian(May 22,
2020), "The fewer than 3,000 black funeral homes still in operation face competition from
Page 2 of 24
E1.Page 432 of 454
chains, a growing acceptance among black families of alternatives like direct burial and
cremation, and a lack of successors willing to carry on the family business. NFDMA
membership, which stands at 1,400, has steadily decreased since 1997."

B. In the event Default occurs pursuant to (A)(1), after applicable notice and the
Occupancy Cure Period detailed above before the expiration of the Loan Term, the
Borrower agrees to repay to the order of the Lender or its designee an amount
equal to the original principal amount of the Loan and it is immediately due and
payable.
In the event Default occurs pursuant to any other provision of this Section, shall
have sixty (60) days after the date on which the notice is delivered to Borrower to
cure such breach, provided, however, that if the curing of such non -monetary
breach cannot be accomplished with due diligence within said period of sixty (60)
days, then Borrower shall have such additional reasonable period of time to cure
such breach as may be necessary, provided Borrower shall have commenced to
cure such breach within said period, such cure shall have been diligently pursued
by Borrower thereafter to completion (“Other Default Cure Period”). The notice
shall further inform Borrower of the right to reinstate after acceleration and the right
to bring a court action to assert the nonexistence of a default or any other defense
of Borrower to acceleration and foreclosure. If the Borrower does not cure the
Default within the specified Other Default Cure Period within the notice, then this
Note is due and payable only with respect to the remaining balance of the Loan at
the time of Default.
C. If the Borrower Defaults hereunder and fails to cure the Default, during the 5 -year
loan Term, the Loan shall be immediately due and owing and the balance of the
Loan shall be immediately repaid to Lender in full.
D. If any payments of interest or the unpaid principal balance due under this Note or
any escrow fund payments for taxes or insurance required under the Security
Agreement become overdue for a period in excess of ten days, the Borrower shall
pay to Lender a late charge of $50.00 per day. If any attorney is engaged by
Lender, including in-house staff (a) to collect the indebtedness evidenced hereby
or due under the Loan Documents, whether or not legal proceedings are thereafter
instituted by Lender; (b) to represent Lender in any bankruptcy, reorganization,
receivership, or other proceedings affecting creditors’ rights and involving a claim
under this Note; (c) to protect the lien of any of the Loan Documents; (d) to
represent Lender in any other proceedings whatsoever in connection with this
Note or any of the Loan Documents or the real estate described therein; or (e) as a
result of the Borrower’s Default and collection efforts, the Borrower shall pay to
Page 11 of 24
E1.Page 441 of 454
Lender all reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred or determined to be
due in connection therewith, in addition to all other amounts due hereunder.
E. Lender’s remedies under this Note, and all of the other Loan Documents shall be
cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued singly, successively, or together
against the Borrower and any other Obligors (as defined below), the Property, and
any other security described in the Loan Documents or any portion or combination
of such real estate and other security, and Lender may resort t o every other right
or remedy available at law or in equity without first exhausting the rights and
remedies contained herein, all in Lender’s sole discretion. Failure of Lender, for a
period of time or on more than one occasion to exercise its option to accelerate the
maturity date shall not constitute a waiver of the right to exercise that option at any
time during the continued existence of the Default or in the event of any
subsequent Default. Lender shall not by any other omission or act be deemed to
waive any of its rights or remedies hereunder unless such waiver is in writing and
signed by Lender, and then only to the extent specifically set forth therein. A
waiver in connection with one event shall not be construed as continuing or as a
bar to or waiver of any right or remedy in connection with a subsequent event.
5. BORROWER'S WAIVERS
Even if, at a time when Borrower is in default, the Lender does not pursue all the
remedies available to it, the Lender will still have the right to do so at any time thereafter
if Borrower remains in default or is in default at a later time.

valuable consideration, Guarantor absolutely and unconditionally guarantees full and
punctual payment and satisfaction of the Indebtedness of Borrower to Lender, and the
performance and discharge of all Borrower's obligations unde r the Note and the Related
Documents. This is a guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection, so
Lender can enforce this Guaranty against Guarantor even when Lender has not
exhausted Lender's remedies against anyone else obligated to pay the I ndebtedness or
against any collateral securing the Indebtedness, this Guaranty or any other guaranty of
the indebtedness. Guarantor will make any payments to Lender or its order, on demand,
in legal tender of the United States of America, in same-day funds, without set-off or
deduction, or counterclaim, and will otherwise perform Borrower's obligations under the
Note and Related Documents. Under this Guaranty, Guarantor's liability is limited to
Borrower’s obligations under the Note.
INDEBTEDNESS. The word "'Indebtedness” as used in this Guaranty means all of the
principal amount outstanding from time to time and at any one or more times, accrued
unpaid interest thereon and all collection costs and legal expenses related thereto
permitted by law, attorneys' fees, arising from Borrower’s obligations under the Note.
CONTINUING GUARANTY. THIS IS A "CONTINUING GUARANTY" UNDER WHICH
GUARANTOR AGREES TO GUARANTEE THE FULL AND PUNCTUAL PAYMENT.
DURATION OF GUARANTY. This Guaranty will take effect when received by Lender
without the necessity of any acceptance by Lender, or any notice to Guarantor or to
Borrower, and will continue in full force until all the Indebtedness incurred or contracted
before receipt by Lender of any notice of revocation shall ha ve been fully and finally
paid and satisfied and, all of Guarantor's other obligations under this Guaranty shall
have been performed in full. If Guarantor elects to revoke this, Guaranty, Guarantor
may only do so in writing. Guarantor's written notice of r evocation must be mailed to
Lender; by certified mail, at Lender's address listed above or such other place as
Lender may designate in writing. Written revocation of this Guaranty will apply only to
new Indebtedness created after actual receipt by Lender of Guarantor's written
revocation. For this purpose and without limitation, the term "new Indebtedness” does
not include the Indebtedness which at the time of notice of revocation is contingent,
unliquidated, undetermined or not due and which later becomes absolute, liquidated,

determined or due. For this purpose and without limitation" new indebtedness” does not
include all or part of the Indebtedness that is: incurred by Borrower prior to revocation;

extensions, substitutions, and modifications of the indebtedness. This Guaranty shall
bind Guarantor's estate as to the Indebtedness created both before and after
Guarantor's death or incapacity, regardless of Lander's actual notice of Guarantor’s
death, Subject to the foregoing, Guarantor's, executor or administrator or other legal
representative may terminate this Guaranty in the same manner in which Guarantor
might have terminated it and with the some effect. Release of any, oth er guarantor or
termination of any other guaranty of the Indebtedness shall not affect the ability of
Guarantor under this guaranty. A revocation Lender receives from anyone or more
Guarantors shall not affect the liability of any remaining Guarantors unde r this Guaranty.

before or after any revocation hereof upon written notice to Guarantor by Lender,

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS. The following miscellaneous provisions are a part of
this Guaranty:

given in writing and signed by both parties.
Attorneys' Fees; Expenses. Guarantor agrees to pay upon demand all of Lender's
costs and expenses, including Lender’s attorneys’ fees and Lende r's legal expenses,
incurred in connection with the enforcement of this Guaranty. The Lender may hire or
pay someone else to help enforce this Guaranty, and the Guarantor shall pay the costs
and expenses of such enforcement.
Caption Headings. Caption headings in this Guaranty are for convenience purposes
only and are not to be used to interpret or define the provisions of this Guaranty.
Governing law. This Guaranty will be governed by federal law applicable to Lender
and, to the extent not preempted by federal law, the laws of the State of Illinois without
regard to its conflicts of law provisions.
Integration. Guarantor further agrees that Guarantor has read and fully understands
the terms of this Guaranty; Guarantor has had the opportunity to be -advised by
Guarantor's attorney with respect to this Guaranty; the Guaranty fully reflects
Guarantor's intentions and parole evidence is not required to interpret the terms of this

Page 20 of 24
E1.Page 450 of 454
Lender as a result of any breach by Guarantor of the warrantie s, representations and
agreements of this paragraph.
Interpretation. In all cases where there is more than one Borrower or Guarantor, then
all words used in this Guaranty in the singular shall be deemed to have been used in
the plural where the context and construction so require; and where there is more than
one Borrower named in this Guaranty or when this Guaranty is executed by more than
one Guarantor, the words “Borrower” and "Guarantor” respectively shall mean all and
anyone or more of them. The words “Guarantor," "Borrower," and "Lender” include the
heirs, successors, assigns, and transferees of each of them, If a court finds that any
provision of this Guaranty is not valid or should not be enforced, that fact by itself will
not mean that the rest of this Guaranty will not be valid or enforced. Therefore, a court
will enforce the rest of the provisions of this Guaranty even if a provision of this
Guaranty may be found to be invalid or unenforceable. If anyone or more of Borrower or
Guarantor are corporations, partnerships, limited liability companies, or similar entities,
it is not necessary for Lender to inquire into the powers of Borrower or Guarantor or of
the officers, directors, partners, managers, or other agents acting or purporting to act on
their behalf, and any indebtedness made or created in reliance upon the professed
exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed under this Guaranty.
Notices. Any notice required to be given under this Guaranty shall be given in writing,
and, except for revocation notices by Guarantor, shall be effective when actually
delivered, when actually received by tele-facsimile (unless, otherwise required by law)
when deposited with a nationally recognized overnight courier, or, if mailed, when
deposited in the United States mail, as first class, certified or registered mail postage
prepaid, directed to the addresses shown near the beginning of this Guaranty. All
revocation notices by Guarantor shall be in writing and shall be effective upon delivery
to Lender as provided in the section of this Guaranty entitled "DURATION OF
GUARANTY.” Any party may change its address for notices under this Guaranty by
giving formal written notice to the other parties, specifying that the purpose of the notice
is to change the party's address, For notice purposes, Guarantor agrees to keep Lender
informed at all times of Guarantor's current address. Unless otherwise provided or
required by law, if there is more than one Guarantor, any notice given by Lender to any
Guarantor is deemed to be notice given to all Guarantors.
No Waiver by Lender. Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any rights under
this Guaranty unless such waiver is given in writing and signed by Lender. No delay or
omission on the part of Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of such
right or any other right. A waiver by Lender of a provision of this Guaranty shall not
prejudice or constitute a waiver of lender's right otherwise to demand strict compliance
with that provision or any other provision of this Guaranty. No prior waiver by Lender,
nor any course of dealing between Lender and Guarantor, shall constitute a waiver of
any of Lender's rights or of any of Guarantor's obligations as to any future transactions,
Whenever the consent of Lender is required under this Guaranty, the granting of such
consent by Lender in any Instance shall not constitute continuing consent to subsequent
Page 21 of 24
E1.Page 451 of 454
instances where such consent is required and in all cases such consent may be granted
or withheld in the sole discretion of Lender.
Successors and Assigns. Subject to any limitations stated in this Guaranty on transfer
of Guarantor's interest, this Guaranty shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of
the parties, their successors and assigns.
