(A3.5) Approval of Contract with Chicagoland Paving for Parking Lot
Improvement Project at Central Street and Stewart Avenue (Bid 13-37)
Staff recommends that City Council authorize the City Manager to execute a
contract for the Central Street & Stewart Avenue parking lot rehabilitation project
(Bid 13-37) with Chicagoland Paving (225 Telser Road, Lake Zurich, IL) in the
amount of $419,900. Funding is provided from the Parking Fund, with a budget
allocation of $540,000.
For Action
Ald. Burrus moved approval, seconded by Ald. Holmes.
Ald. Rainey said a resident asked her to consider the need for covered bike racks
that would cost the City $20,000.
Suzette Robinson, Director of Public Works, explained that the location of the
proposed bike racks is Stewart and Central Streets in the little square on the corner
outside of garden area and it would provide shelter for 12 bike racks for 24 bike
parking spaces.
Ald. Burrus said, with such a great need for bike racks, City Council previously
decided to put more racks throughout the City rather than spending extra money on
covered racks.
Ms. Robinson said Church Street included a covered rack as well as Davis Street, but
the one on Church Street was not installed because it would block the sign for Andy’s
Frozen Yogurt and was relocated to the library.
Ald. Burrus said she is not sure she is in support of this and asked the difference in
cost between a covered and non-covered bike rack, to which Ms. Robinson said she
would get back to her with the difference. Ms. Robinson said she had gotten
approval to do a pilot and wanted to pursue it. She said a shelter was recommended
on a metered space at Clark and Sherman but it was a matter of bikes taking up
metered spaces. The proposed shelter at Stewart and Central is proposed to be the
first one at a parking area with permeable sidewalks, a car charging station and other
green components.
Chair Grover commented that the City encourages people to use bikes for
transportation but unfortunately, Central Street is not wide enough to accommodate a
bike lane.
Ald. Rainey said she is changing her mind because it is Ald. Grover’s special bike
shelter and it is really a test, suggesting that the Committee visit it from time to time.
She said bike racks are important and shelters are nice.

Chair Grover said she wanted to do sustainability features in this parking lot to
support the traffic in the business area.
Ald. Holmes noted that each location is different and sometimes additional
information is needed to understand the needs of the community and to convey to the
person or business requesting them the factors involved. She said to be sure to talk
to the person who requested it. Ald. Burrus agreed that it is a good idea to talk to her
because she has had many great ideas that have been thwarted.
Ms. Robinson said she will be removing a metered parking space.
Wally Bobkiewicz, City Manager, said he would like to come back to the question of
corrals and cost sharing and that a policy from Council is needed because he is not
sure whether staff is in power to remove parking spaces at the request of any
business. He said the City is bike-friendly, but the budget is not keeping up with it.
At the end of May or beginning of June, he will come back with bike issues to get
some policy direction.
Chair Grover noted that the parking lot will have entrance and exit on Stewart and no
longer on Central Street.
The Committee voted unanimously 5-0 to recommend approval of the contract.
(A3.6) Approval of Vehicle Purchase for Evanston Police Department from Golf
Mill Ford
Staff recommends City Council approval for the purchase of one (1) replacement
vehicle (Ford Expedition) for the Evanston Police Department in the total amount of
$35,018 from Golf Mill Ford (9401 N. Milwaukee Avenue, Niles, IL). Funding is
provided by the Fleet Vehicle Replacement Fund (Account 7780.65550).
For Action
Ald. Burrus moved approval, seconded by Ald. Holmes.
Chair Grover noted that the vehicle is being purchased at a special price.
The Committee voted unanimously 5-0 to recommend approval of the
purchase.
(A3.7) Approval of Contract Award to G.A. Johnson & Son for the 2013 Noyes
Cultural Arts Center Chimney & Roof Repair Project (Bid 13-02)
Staff recommends that City Council authorize the City Manager to execute a
contract for the base bid plus alternates 1, 3 and 7 for the 2013 Noyes Cultural Arts
Center Chimney & Roof Repair Project with G.A. Johnson & Son (828 Foster Street,
Evanston, IL) in the amount of $1,073,660. Funding is provided by: 1) $70,000 from
the FY 2013 CIP Fund Account No. 415663; 2) $750,000 from a State of Illinois
DCEO Grant; and 3) $434,000 from proposed FY2013 CIP Amendment. Total 2013
budget allocation is $1,254,000.
For Action

Administration and Public Works Committee Meeting
Minutes of 5-13-13
Page 5 of 7
Ald. Burrus moved approval, seconded by Ald. Rainey.
Chair Grover called the public who wished to speak to the podium.
Junad Rizke of 2789 Sheridan said the Piven Theater was going to get free rent. He
suggested getting in-kind services rather than taking money out of the capital
improvement fund, since the City is not collecting rent from Piven. He asked whether
the job has gone through the bidding process. He said $60,000 is important and the
City should not let it go away. Chair Grover said the roof needs to be replaced
anyway. Mr. Rizke asked whether it is a case similar to the reconstructed theater on
Howard and whether a local contractor would have gotten a 5% advantage.
Ald. Rainey said there had been a pre-bid meeting attended by approximately 25
contractors for the theater project. When they found out there was a 5% advantage
for Evanston contractors, many left. The 5% advantage didn’t work out for Johnson
and another firm got the bid. She said the advantage system has a chilling effect on
bigger projects over $75,000 - $100,000 and suggested that instead of giving a 5%
advantage, the City should require a minimum number of trainees on projects. She
said Johnson won this one because they were the only one there.
Paul D’Agostino, Director of Parks, Recreation and Community Services, said there
was no local preference given in the bid process for this project at 2013 Noyes
because the City is using State of Illinois DCEO grant funds. Ald. Rainey said she is
not criticizing this but it did remind her of the other issue.
Wally noted to Ald. Rainey that he had just been reminded by Joe McRae, Deputy
City Manager, that this issue is before the MWEBE Committee and they are
preparing a report for this discussion.
Marty Lyons, Assistant City Manager/Treasurer said the City has been working on
simpler forms to encourage more contractors to come to bid.
The Committee voted unanimously 5-0 to recommend approval of the contract.
(A3.8) Approval of Contract Award to Quality Restorations, Inc. for the 2013
Sherman Plaza Garage Façade Repairs (Bid 13-17)
Staff recommends that City Council authorize the City Manager to execute a
contract for the base bid plus Alternate 1 for the 2013 Sherman Plaza Garage
Façade Repairs with Quality Restorations, Inc. (356 Tioga Trail, Wood Dale, IL) in
the amount of $ 274,100.00. Funding is provided by: 1) $200,000 from the FY2013
Parking Fund Account No. 700506; and 2) $117,300 from FY 2013 Parking Fund
Account No. 7036.65515. Total Budget allocation is $317,300.
For Action
Ald. Burrus moved approval, seconded by Ald. Braithwaite.
The Committee voted unanimously 5-0 to recommend approval of the contract.

(A3.9) Approval of Contract with Citywide Elevator Inspection Services, Inc. for
City of Evanston-Elevator Inspection Program (RFP 13-11)
Staff recommends that City Council authorize the City Manager to execute a
contract for elevator inspection and plan review services with Citywide Elevator
Inspection Services (7144 N. Harlem Ave. Suite 303, Chicago, IL). The contract term
will be for a period of three years from the commencement date. After the initial
term, there shall be two (2) options to renew for one (1) additional year. The FY
2013 cost of the proposed contract will be assessed on a per-unit basis and is
estimated to be approximately $44,496 for a total of 824 inspections.
For Action
Mr. Lyons stated that staff requested that this item be pulled from the agenda so the
information that had been used to prepare the contract could be updated with new
information that had just been received by staff. He said staff needs at least 2
weeks to be sure the change is a productive one. In the meantime, the City will
continue service with the current contractor.
Chair Grover stated that the item had been pulled.
(A4) Approval of Post Debt Issuance Procedures Manual
Staff recommends that City Council approve a Post Debt Issuance Manual for use in
the administration of the City’s debt portfolio. The Manual is recommended by the
City’s Bond Counsel, Chapman and Cutler. It is also favorably viewed by bond
ratings agencies. The Manual covers the procedures and actions the City needs to
take each year to maintain the tax exempt status of City debt.
For Action

For City Council meeting of May 28, 2013 Item A3.1
Business of the City by Motion: Purchase of Leak Detection Equipment
For Action
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
Administration and Public Works Committee
From: David Stoneback, Utilities Director
Kristin Rehg, Management Analyst
Subject: Single Source Purchase of Leak Detection Equipment from Fluid
Conservation Systems
Date: May 16, 2013
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends approval of a single source purchase of water main leak detection
equipment from Fluid Conservation Services (502 Technecenter Drive Suite B, Milford,
OH 45150) in the amount of $53,060. Funding is provided from the Water Fund.
Funding Source:
Funding for this purchase will be from the Water Fund, Account 7130.65702. The FY
2013 budget in this account for the purchase of leak detection equipment is $60,000.
Background:
The Utilities Department utilizes a leak noise correlator to identify and locate leaks in the
pressurized water mains. Leak detection is a critical component of distribution system
maintenance for several reasons:
Repair leaks in advance of street resurfacing, to avoid excavation work on a
newly repaved street.
Reduce the amount of treated drinking water that is lost from leaks.
Reduce the instance of severe water main breaks by repairing the mains when
they are only experiencing small leaks.
Identify where a broken water main is actually leaking, which is not always
directly right below where the water is surfacing.
The existing correlator, which was purchased in 1995, is nearing the end of its useful life
and a replacement correlator is needed to ensure accuracy during leak detection.
Newer leak detection technology allows for more efficient use of this equipment. The
newer leak detection equipment utilizes leak noise loggers, which detect the presence
Memorandum
46 of 441
of a leak on a segment of water main but does not pinpoint the exact locate the leak.
The loggers can be set up quickly and left in place for several hours while crews
perform other tasks. If a leak is not detected, the correlation work is not required. In
short, loggers eliminate the need for leak correlation on every water main, and allow for
more proactive leak detection throughout the entire distribution system.
Analysis:
Three companies were found that manufacture leak detection equipment that provide
both correlators and loggers:
Vendor Address
Fluid Conservation Systems (FCS) 502 Technecenter Dr. Ste. B, Milford, OH 45150
Sewerin (represented by Eden Brothers) P.O. Box 247, Saint James, MO 65559
Metrotech Corporation 3251 Olcott Street, Santa Clara, CA 95054
These three companies were invited to demonstrate their equipment on the Evanston
distribution system. The Metrotech system failed to locate a known leak after several
attempts. The Sewerin system came within a few feet of a known leak after two
attempts. Only the FCS system was able to exactly pinpoint a known leak on the first
attempt. A repeat attempt using an alternate (and less ideal) equipment setup also
pinpointed the leak on the first try. The ability to precisely locate a leak on the first
attempt is critical, as excavating in the wrong location wastes time, water, and money
(approximately $2,200 per excavation, not including the cost of street restoration).
Below is a summary of the quotes received from these vendors following their
demonstrations in Evanston.
Vendor Price
Fluid Conservation Systems (FCS) $53,060
Sewerin $32,990
Metrotech Corporation $32,990
The FCS leak detection system is recommended. Though it is the highest cost, it also
has the highest accuracy. The Utilities Department uses the existing leak correlator to
locate approximately 10 leaks per year. At an average cost of $2,200 per excavation for
leak repairs, the $20,000 price difference could potentially be made up in the first year,
as the FCS system is the only one with the demonstrated ability to accurately locate a
leak on the first try.
The alternative to replacing the existing leak correlator is to contract out the leak
detection work each year. At a minimum, this work would consist of proactive leak
detection on streets to be resurfaced, and locating an average of 10 known leaks.
Based on recent quotes from local leak detection service providers, these services
would cost approximately $9,000 per year.
47 of 441
The anticipated life of the new equipment is 10 years. Purchasing the FCS leak
detection system would result in a six-year payback period when compared to the cost
of contracting out this work. Furthermore, this system will allow for proactive leak
detection beyond only those streets slated for resurfacing each year. This is especially
important given the recent proposal by the Illinois Department of Natural Resources to
allow for less water main leakage in communities using Lake Michigan water.
The quote from FCS is attached, along with a certification from the manufacturer to
indicate that this equipment is only available for purchase directly from the factory. FCS
does not sell its equipment through third party vendors or manufacturers’
representatives. Therefore, the attached quote is the confirmed lowest price for this
equipment.
Pending authorization to purchase this equipment, it is our intention to advise
neighboring communities that Evanston would be willing to loan this equipment to them
for a slight fee in furtherance of the City’s goal to reduce costs through shared services
with nearby communities. If these communities are interested, they would be requested
to send representatives to the manufacturers’ equipment training.

Bob Dorneker, Assistant Director, Parks, Recreation and Community Services
Subject: Approval of Renewal Agreement for the 2013 Summer Food Service
Program (Bid 11-01)
Date: May 28, 2013
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends City Council approve the renewal agreement for the 2013 Summer
Food Service Program to Open Kitchens Inc. (1161 West 21st Street, Chicago, Il) in the
not-to-exceed amount of $2.446 per lunch. Estimated total value of the food costs for
the program are $86,500.
Funding Source:
This is a reimbursement program in which the total amount of reimbursement the City
will receive is solely dependent upon the number of lunches served and varies
depending on the levels of participation. The City’s estimated reimbursement is
calculated using the highest daily participation level stated in our application. Funding
for this program is budgeted in business unit 3050, Recreation Outreach Program.
Overall budgeted expenses for the 2013 program are $115,092 which includes staffing
seasonal salaries, social security, medicare, advertising, program supplies, sanitation
fees, health inspections and food costs.
Expense Account 3050.65025 (Food costs) $86,500
Estimated revenue reimbursed to revenue account 3050.53565 $103,000
Summary:
The City participates in a Summer Food Service Program with the Federal Government
through the Illinois State Board of Education to provide free lunches to all youth ages 1-
18. Currently, the lunch program is scheduled to be held Mondays through Fridays,
June 17 – August 23, 2013, at four sites in Evanston (Robert Crown Center, Fleetwood-
Jourdain Center, Mason Park and James Park). A sample of the 2013 11-day rotating
lunch menu is attached. Staff is currently in the process of finalizing 2013 menus. Staff
estimates a daily participation level of 675 lunches per day and it is likely that
participation in the program will exceed the estimated levels. Should the program
Memorandum
85 of 441
Page 2 of 2
exceed current projections, it may be necessary to increase the funding allocation for
this program (business unit 3050); however, the more lunches that are served, the more
reimbursement funding the City will receive to offset the cost of the program. The
current rate of reimbursement set by the Federal Government is $3.4125 per lunch
served.
Summary of Summer Food Service Program 2012
Expenditures for the four program sites in the City: $114,592
Actual reimbursement: $ 106,040
Number of lunches served: 31,877
The 2010 contract awarded to Open Kitchens, 1161 W 21st Street Chicago, IL 60608,
allows for a renewal annually for four additional one year periods and limits price
increases to the measurable index of the Consumer Price Index for All Urban
Consumers. The 2013 rate for lunches can be no higher than $2.446 to renew this
contract, which Open Kitchens has submitted a renewal contract reflecting the $2.446
per lunch rate. A copy of the renewal document is attached.
Open Kitchens, Inc. supplied the lunches for the program last year without any
problems. Their pricing per lunch is within the budgeted reimbursement amount pre-
determined by the Federal Government and our estimate of providing 675 lunches daily
for the program. Amy Bianco, Illinois State Board of Education Program Contract
Administrator, has also preliminary reviewed and approved the 2013 renewal from Open
Kitchens Inc. Following the City of Evanston’s approval, the Illinois State Board of
Education Nutrition Program will consider the contract renewal.

Summary:
The existing greenhouse structure at the Ecology Center is deteriorated and is in
danger of failing, bringing up a variety of safety concerns. It currently does not meet
building and ADA code requirements. In order to eliminate safety concerns and provide
the Ecology Center with a usable space to facilitate their programs, the existing
greenhouse needs to be removed in its entirety and a new greenhouse similar in
footprint will need to be constructed. The City hired Behles + Behles, an architectural
consulting firm, to start performing the design work at the end of 2012.
On March 14, 2013 the City issued bid documents for the project and on April 9, 2013
the City received and publicly read seven (7) bids. Bid results were as follows:
Memorandum

After review of the bids, Builders Land, Inc., was rejected for being non-responsive to

(CCDS) for the lump sum amount of $175,000.00. Our consultant, Behles + Behles,
has checked CCDS’s references and have received favorable feedback. One reference
stated that for two projects that CCDS performed for them “the communication was
great and it was a very smooth process.” Construction Consulting & Disbursement
Services, Inc. is in compliance with the City’s M/W/EBE goa ls (please see attached

projects.
After the interviews, the committee met again to discuss the three consultants, score the

recommends that McGuire Igleski & Associates, Inc. be awarded this work based on
their previous experience with similar projects, demonstrated understanding of the
project, participation in meeting the City’s M/W/EBE goal and positive prior experience
working with the City. Staff has worked with McGuire Igleski & Associates on multiple

contract was for a one-year period with the right to extend the contract for up to three
(3), one-year periods. This is the second one-year contract extension.
Summary:
Based on a review of current pricing structures and Golf Mill Ford’s record as the lowest
responsive and responsible vendor, staff recommends a contract extension to Golf Mill
Ford for an additional one-year period from 5/1/13 through 4/30/14 in the amount of
$75,000. Golf Mill Ford has provided very good parts and exceptional services to the
City of Evanston. There are no Evanston based businesses that provide Ford OEM
parts.

the 2013 Water Main Replacement & Street Resurfacing CIP Project One (Bid 13-40) to
Glenbrook Excavating & Contracting Inc. (20389 Weiland Road, Prairie View, IL 60069 )
in the amount of $1,998,898.26.
Funding Source:
Funding is provided by the Water Fund $1,328,251.29 (733086.65515); Sewer Fund
$92,247.54 (7420.65515); and CIP Street Resurfacing Fund $578,399.43
(415857.65515).
Summary:
CIP Project One consists of the 2013 streets segments requiring water main
replacements and/or street resurfacing. The water mains to be replaced are developed
by the Utilities Department based on the main breaks and age, condition and size of the
water main. Sewer funds are used for sewer improvements and water funds are used
for water main replacement and street paving over the utility trench.
The 2013 street resurfacing segments were selected based on the field review by the
Public Works Director and the Alderman for each ward. The City Council approved the
final street list on December 10, 2012. As part of the street resurfacing project,
deteriorated street segments are improved with new curb, stabilized base material (as
needed) and new asphalt pavement surface. Accessible ramps are also built at the
street intersections. A location map showing the water main replacement & street
resurfacing included in Project One is attached.

For City Council meeting of May 28, 2013 Item A3.12
Business of the City by Motion: Data Conversion for New Financial System
For Action
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
Administration and Public Works Committee
From: Martin Lyons, Assistant City Manager/CFO
Jose Calderon, IT Division Manager
Subject: Award Single Source Contract for Data Conversion Services to Schaefer
Consulting
Date: May 28, 2013
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends City Council authorize the City Manager to execute a single-source
contract for data conversion service with Schaefer Consulting (34179 Golden Lantern
#105, Dana Point, CA) in the amount of $36,000.00.
Funding Source:
This project was included as a part of the total funding cost for the New World System
of $596,000 under the contingency for “additional implementation services above the
minimum proposed by New World Systems.” Funding will also be provided through
salary savings from the retirement of the Database Administrator position (this position
would have accomplished some of the work in-house and the position has been left
vacant).
Summary:
The contract for implementation of New World Systems includes data conversion from
the existing JD Edwards EnterpriseOne system for the following areas:
Vendor Information
Fixed Assets
General Ledger/Budget History
Purchase Order History
Employee Information
Employee Detailed Earnings History
The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne system will be completely decommissioned when the
New World implementation is complete. It is imperative that data conversion activities
Memorandum

Page 2 of 2
are successful and are carried out in line with the rest of the implementation project
schedule.
Staff was unable to identify additional vendors who have successfully completed a data
conversion from JD Edwards into New World. Staff did obtain pricing from another
vendor that did not have experience in such a conversion, but were familiar with Oracle.
This pricing was higher than the price provided by Schaefer. As a result, this
conversion is being recommended as a single sourc e. Schaefer Consulting has a
proven methodology that significantly streamlines the data conversion process. City
staff would have to create a similar process from scratch and would be working with
data structures that are unfamiliar to them. By leveraging Schaefer Consulting’s prior
experience, staff time can be applied towards other aspects of the project. Schaefer
Consulting has worked with New World Systems and has extensive experience with
data conversions to New World’s Logos System.
Schaefer Consulting has agreed to use the City’s standard consulting services
agreement. Per the proposed contract with Schaefer Consulting, data conversion
activities would begin in June of 2013.

Services (Bid 10-32)
Date: May 16, 2013
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute Change
Order No. 1 to the agreement with Third Millennium Associates, Inc. (4200 Cantera
Drive, Suite 105, Warrenville, IL 60555), for the Utility Billing Print and Mailing Services

completion date by 62 days.
Funding Source:
Funding is provided by the Water Fund Account 7125.62455 in the amount of $3,000,
and the Sewer Fund Account 7400.62455 in the amount of $2,000.
Background Information:
This contract is for the printing and mailing of utility bills. It also includes printing and
mailing of past due notices and shutoff notices. This three-year contract was originally
approved by City Council in July 2009. City Council approved a one-year extension in
June 2012.

From: Douglas J. Gaynor, Director, Parks, Recreation & Community Services
Subject: Acceptance of the Tiny House Donation
Date: May 28, 2013
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends that the City Manager be authorized to execute an agreement with
Northwestern University to accept the donation of the Tiny House for educational
purposes.
Funding Source:
The Tiny House is valued at approximately $40,000 and the Evanston Environmental
Association is planning to provide financial assistance to the City for costs associated
with bringing the Tiny House to the Ecology Center.
Discussion:
The Tiny House got its start in 2010 as a project in a Segal Design Institute course at
Northwestern University and was designed by students and young alumni from
Northwestern’s McCormick School of Engineering and Applied Science.
“The team of students designed the house with the motto that the greenest square foot
is the one you don’t build”. For example, the bathroom has a shower and composting
toilet. Everything is designed for one person, with the occasional visitor needs.
The house is a mere 128 square feet and fully independent, including the capability of
producing its own electricity using solar panels and also collects all of its water. Cost to
build the house with appliances was approximately $40,000.
The Tiny House also has everything a person needs to live comfortably: a living room,
kitchen, bathroom, sleeping loft, storage area, an awning for shade and even a
fireplace.
Once completed, the project team of students utilized the Tiny House to teach people
about sustainability, living simply and creatively using the space one has. The house

was showcased at the last two Green Living Festivals as well as the Museum of
Science and Industry.
At the conclusion of the 2012 festival, project team members approached members of
the Evanston Environmental Association (EEA) and City staff about donating the Tiny
House to the Ecology Center. Since the offer, parties from both sides have been
discussing the needs of the structure, required maintenance, available operational
manuals, copyrights and how to best display the Tiny House. Based on the information
learned about the Tiny House, staff and the members of the EEA recommend accepting
the donation. It will be used as an educational tool to teach individuals about
sustainability and how space can be used creatively for simplistic living.
City staff and members of the EEA will continue working together to determine how the
house will be best displayed at the Ecology Center, including making any safety
adjustments, prior to it being displayed.

Resolution 35-R-13: Authorizing Mayor to Execute Highway Authority Agreement
For Action
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
Administration and Public Works Committee
From: W. Grant Farrar, Corporation Counsel
Subject: Resolution 35-R-13, authorizing Mayor to execute the Highway Authority
Agreement and the associated Addendum with Ventura Realty, Ltd.
Date: May 21, 2013
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends approval of Resolution 35-R-13 “Authorizing the Mayor of the City of
Evanston to Execute a Highway Authority Agreement and an Addendum thereto with
Ventura Realty, Ltd.”
Summary:
Ventura Realty, Ltd. (“Property Owner”) owns certain property at 1459 – 1463 Elmwood
Avenue, Evanston, Illinois (“Site”). Due to one or more releases of contaminants at the
Site by entities other than the City, into the soil and/or groundwater from underground
storage tanks (“USTs”) which exceed Tier 1 residential remediation objectives contained in
35 Ill.Admin. Code Part 742, the Property Owner seeks to take corrective action and
remediate the Site. Potential contamination from the release at the Site extends into City’s
right-of-way (the “Right-of-Way”). The Property Owner requested that the City enter into
an Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (“IEPA”) approved Highway Authority
Agreement (“HAA”). The HAA addresses responsibilities of the parties with respect to the
groundwater beneath the Right-of-Way to prevent use as a supply of potable or domestic
water supply and limit soil access within the Right-of-Way. The City determined that
additional terms needed to be addressed between the parties and supplemented the HAA
with the attached Addendum to HAA. The Property Owner’s execution of the Addendum
is a prerequisite to the City executing the HAA.
The following Table summarizes the City's obligations under the HAA:
Area City is obligated
to Maintain

City to require Permit1

Notes on the Table:
Memorandum
170 of 441
(1) The HAA agrees to limit access and activities within the Right-of-Way and requires
permits for any work. This is to protect human health, the groundwater, worker safety and
restrict the use of any soil excavated from the Right-of-Way. The permit should establish
conditions for management of soil and groundwater that is removed from an excavation.
This means that for all areas outside the Yellow box special precautions are not
required for routine landscaping activities (which will not occur at a depth greater than 3
feet).
(2) "Yes" means, in the absence to testing demonstrating the soil is not contaminated
with petroleum, the City should assume the soil is contaminated and manage it (if
removed) as an Illinois Special Waste.
(3) "Yes" means, in the absence to testing demonstrating the groundwater is not
contaminated with petroleum, the City should assume the groundwater is contaminated
and manage it (if removed) as an Illinois Special Waste.
The City is required under Condition 2 (page 2) of the HAA to notify IEPA if jurisdiction
over the yellow, blue or red areas is transferred from the City to the State or another
jurisdiction. Please note that there is no potential groundwater contamination at the Site
because there are no wells or water service to any residents from the Site. The
Agreement is to be submitted to the IEPA for review in order to obtain a no further
remediation letter (“NFR”) for the Site. The Property Owner is solely responsible for
obtaining the NFR from the IEPA.

WHEREAS, as a result of one or more releases of contaminants
(“the Release(s)”), soil and/or groundwater contamination at the Site exceeds the Tier 1 residential remediation
objectives of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 742;
from the above referenced USTs
WHEREAS, the soil and/or groundwater contamination exceeding Tier 1 residential remediation objectives
extends or may extend into the Highway Authority’s right-of-way;
WHEREAS, the Owner/Operator or Property Owner is conducting corrective action in response to the
Release(s);
WHEREAS, the Parties desire to prevent groundwater beneath the Highway Authority’s right-of-way that
exceeds Tier 1 remediation objectives from use as a supply of potable or domestic water and to limit access to
soil within the right-of-way that exceeds Tier 1 residential remediation objectives so that human health and the
environment are protected during and after any access;
NOW, THEREFORE, the Parties agree as follows:
1. The recitals set forth above are incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein.

6. [Use this paragraph if samples have not been collected within the Right-of-Way, sampling within the
Right-of-Way is not practical, and contamination does not extend beyond the Right-of-Way.] Because the
collection of samples within the Right-of-Way is not practical, the Parties stipulate that, based on modeling,
soil and groundwater contamination exceeding Tier 1 residential remediation objectives does not and will
not extend beyond the boundaries of the Right-of- Way.
7. The Highway Authority stipulates it has jurisdiction over the Right-of-Way that gives it sole control over the
use of the groundwater and access to the soil located within or beneath the Right-of-Way.
8. The Highway Authority agrees to prohibit within the Right-of-Way all potable and domestic uses of
groundwater exceeding Tier 1 residential remediation objectives.
9. The Highway Authority further agrees to limit access by itself and others to soil within the Right-of-Way
exceeding Tier 1 residential remediation objectives. Access shall be allowed only if human health
(including worker safety) and the environment are protected during and after any access. The Highway
Authority may construct, reconstruct, improve, repair, maintain and operate a highway upon the Right-of-Way,
or allow others to do the same by permit. In addition, the Highway Authority and others using or working in
the Right-of-Way under permit have the right to remove soil or groundwater from the Right-of-Way and
dispose of the same in accordance with applicable environmental laws and regulations. The Highway
Authority agrees to issue all permits for work in the Right-of-Way, and make all existing permits for work

Right-of-Way where a Highway Authority Agreement governs access to soil that exceeds the Tier 1 residential
remediation objectives of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 742. The permittee shall take all measures necessary to protect
human health (including worker safety) and the environment during and after any access to such soil.
10. This agreement shall be referenced in the Agency’s no further remediation determination issued for the
Release(s).
11. The Agency shall be notified of any transfer of jurisdiction over the Right-of-Way at least 30 days prior to
the date the transfer takes effect. This agreement shall be null and void upon the transfer unless the
transferee agrees to be bound by this agreement as if the transferee were an original party to this
agreement. The transferee’s agreement to be bound by the terms of this agreement shall be memorialized
at the time of transfer in a writing ("Rider") that references this Highway Authority Agreement and is signed
by the Highway Authority, or subsequent transferor, and the transferee.
12. This agreement shall become effective on the date the Agency issues a no further remediation
determination for the Release(s). It shall remain effective until the Right-of-Way is demonstrated to be
suitable for unrestricted use and the Agency issues a new no further remediation determination to reflect
there is no longer a need for this agreement, or until the agreement is otherwise terminated or voided.
13. In addition to any other remedies that may be available, the Agency may bring suit to enforce the terms
of this agreement or may, in its sole discretion, declare this agreement null and void if any of the Parties
or any transferee violates any term of this agreement. The Parties or transferee shall be notified in writing
of any such declaration.

its government and affairs;
WHEREAS, Property Owner is the owner of property located at 1459-1463 Elmwood Avenue,
Evanston, Illinois, (the “Site”);
WHEREAS, as a result of one or more releases of contaminants at the above referenced Site (“the
Release”), soil and/or groundwater contamination at the Site exceeds the Tier 1 residential remediation
objectives of 35 Ill. Admin. Code Part 742;
WHEREAS, the soil and groundwater contamination exceeding Tier 1 residential remediation
objectives may extend into the City’s right-of -way(s), as described in Exhibit C of the Highway Authority
Agreement (“HAA”) attached hereto as Attachment 1 (the “Right-of -Way(s)”);
WHEREAS, Property Owner has requested that the City enter into an Illinois Environmental Protection
Agency (“IEPA”) approved HAA attached hereto as Attachment 1;

comfort, convenience and general welfare of the citizens of the City;
WHEREAS, Section 734.632 of the IEPA Leaking Underground Storage Tank Regulations, 35 IAC
734.632, addresses reimbursement of costs the City may incur in connection with contamination at the
Site after the NFR Letter for the Site is issued, by providing in part as follows:
[T]he following shall be considered corrective action activities eligible for payment from
the Fund even when an owner or operator conducts these activities after the issuance of
a No Further Remediation Letter …. (d)The disposal of soil that does not exceed
industrial/commercial property remediation objectives, but that does exceed Tier 1
residential property remediation objectives, if industrial/commercial property remediation
objectives were used [to obtain the NFR Letter] and the owner or operator demonstrates
that the contamination is the result of the release for which the owner or operator is
eligible to seek payment from the Fund and disposal of the soil is necessary as a result
of construction activities conducted after the issuance of a No Further Remediation
Letter on the site where the release occurred …” (hereafter “Section 734.632 of the
LUST Regulation”).

WHEREAS, Property Owner entering into the Addendum is a condition precedent to City entering into
the HAA;
WHEREAS, Property Owner requests the City enter into the HAA;
WHEREAS, the HAA would restrict access to soil within the Right-of -Way(s), so that human health and
the environment are protected during and after any access;
WHEREAS, the Parties agree and consent that this Addendum will serve to supplement the HAA by
conferring additional obligations, protections and benefits to the Parties and is not intended to conflict
with terms and conditions of the HAA;
WHEREAS, the Parties acknowledge and agree that the HAA must be approved by the IEPA as an
Institutional Control as defined by the regulations of the Illinois Pollution Control Board (“IPCB”);
WHEREAS, the Parties acknowledge and agree that the HAA must be approved by the IEPA as a
condition of the HAA becoming effective;
WHEREAS, Property Owner agrees to record at its expense the HAA and this Addendum with the
County Recorder on the property records relating to the Site within thirty (30) days after receiving the
no further remediation determination for the Release(s) and IEMA incident number(s) referenced in the
HAA;
WHEREAS, in the HAA the City stipulates it has jurisdiction over the Right-of -Way(s) that gives the City
sole control over access to the soil located within or beneath the Right-of -Way(s);

2. This Addendum is not binding upon the City until it is executed by the undersigned
representatives of the Parties and the HAA is also executed by the respective representatives.
3. The HAA and this Addendum shall be null and void should the IEPA not approve the HAA or
should the HAA not be referenced in a “No Further Remediation” determination for the Site
within two (2) years of the date of the HAA. The City shall not unreasonably deny a written
request by Owner for additional time, beyond the two (2) years specified above, to obtain IEPA
approval of the HAA or reference of the HAA in a “No Further Remediation” determination for
the Site. In the event that IEPA does not approve the HAA due to an objection to any provision
in this Addendum, the Parties will in good faith attempt to amend this Addendum in order to
address and resolve IEPA’s objection (s).

4. The Parties reserve any and all causes of action they may have against one another and
persons not a party to this agreement, whether in contribution or cost recovery, including causes
of action arising under any law, statute or regulation whatsoever, including the Act, common law,
the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, 42 U.S.C. 6901, et seq., CERCLA, 42 U.S.C.
9601, et seq.
5. This Addendum shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of all successors in interest to the
City. A successor in interest of the City would include a highway authority to which the City
would transfer jurisdiction over the highway.
6. Violation of the terms of this Addendum by the Property Owner or the City will not be grounds
for voidance or termination of the Addendum and the HAA, unless: (1) the IEPA has determined
in writing that the violation is grounds for IEPA’s voidance of the HAA; and, (2) the violation has
not been cured within such time as IEPA has granted to cure the violation.
7. Pursuant to Section 9 of the HAA, the City may conduct certain work upon the Right-of-Way(s)
and remove or dispose of contaminated soil and groundwater from the Right-of-Way(s) in
accordance with applicable environmental laws and regulations. Prior to taking any such action,
the City will first give Property Owner no less than ten days (10) written notice, unless there is
an immediate threat to the health or safety to any individual or to the public, that it intends to
perform work in the Right-of -Way(s) which may involve removing and disposing of contaminated
soil or groundwater. During this period, which may be extended by agreement of the parties
(such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld), the City and Property Owner will in good
faith attempt to agree upon a consensus approach to managing the impacted soil and
groundwater in the Right-of -Way(s). The final decision for management will be in the
reasonable discretion of the City. Failure of the City to give notice is not a violation of this
Addendum.
8. (a) In the event that the City conducts work upon the Right-of -Way(s) and the soil and/or
groundwater in the Right-of -Way(s) is not contaminated, Property Owner will have no obligation
to the City under this paragraph of this Addendum.
(b) In the event that the City conducts work upon the Right-of -Way(s) and the soil and/or
groundwater in the Right-of -Way(s) is contaminated, Property Owner and the City shall in good
faith cooperate in an attempt to apply for and obtain, for the benefit of the City, reimbursement
of all costs incurred by the City for all corrective action activities incurred in connection with work
upon the Right-of -Way(s) and the removal or disposal of soil and groundwater from the Right-of-
Way(s) to the extent the cost of such corrective action activities are reimbursable under Section
734.632 of the LUST Regulations. Property Owner’s cooperation includes the execution of all
forms and documents necessary to make an application for reimbursement under Section
193 of 441
4
734.632 of the LUST Regulations, and the prompt payment to the City of any funds received by
Property Owner as a consequence of an application for reimbursement of costs incurred by the
City under Section 734.632 of the LUST Regulations. Unless otherwise agreed, Property
Owner’s cooperation does not include expending funds or entering into an obligation that
requires or may require Property Owner to expend its funds. Property Owner’s cooperation
therefore specifically does not include, unless otherwise agreed: contracting for goods or
services relating to the removal or disposal of soil and groundwater from the Right-of-Way(s);
contracting for goods or services relating to an application for reimbursement under Section
734.632 of the LUST Regulations; incurring costs or advancing funds for the cost of corrective
action activities incurred in connection with work upon the Right-of -Way(s) and the removal or
disposal of soil and groundwater from the Right-of-Way(s); or incurring costs or advancing funds
for costs incurred in the course of making an application for reimbursement under Section
734.632 of the LUST Regulations. Property Owner shall have no further obligations under this
paragraph of this Addendum in the event such costs are not reimbursable under Section
734.632 of the LUST Regulation.
9. Notwithstanding Paragraph 4 of the Addendum, the parties, their agents, contractors,
employees and its successors in interest waive all claims against one another, in either law or
equity, arising under the HAA.
10. Property Owner stipulates that the City has an inadequate remedy at law for Property Owner’s
breach of the Addendum and may file for injunctive relief in Circuit Court of County, Illinois to
enforce the Addendum.

(“the Release(s)”), soil and/or groundwater contamination at the Site exceeds the Tier 1 residential remediation
objectives of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 742;
from the above referenced USTs
WHEREAS, the soil and/or groundwater contamination exceeding Tier 1 residential remediation objectives
extends or may extend into the Highway Authority’s right-of-way;
WHEREAS, the Owner/Operator or Property Owner is conducting corrective action in response to the
Release(s);
WHEREAS, the Parties desire to prevent groundwater beneath the Highway Authority’s right-of-way that
exceeds Tier 1 remediation objectives from use as a supply of potable or domestic water and to limit access to
soil within the right-of-way that exceeds Tier 1 residential remediation objectives so that human health and the
environment are protected during and after any access;
NOW, THEREFORE, the Parties agree as follows:
1. The recitals set forth above are incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein.
2. [Use this paragraph if IEMA has issued an incident number] The Illinois Emergency Management Agency

not a surveyed plat, the Right-of-Way boundary may be an approximation of the actual Right-of-Way lines.
Owner/Operator
6. [Use this paragraph if samples have not been collected within the Right-of-Way, sampling within the
Right-of-Way is not practical, and contamination does not extend beyond the Right-of-Way.] Because the
collection of samples within the Right-of-Way is not practical, the Parties stipulate that, based on modeling,
soil and groundwater contamination exceeding Tier 1 residential remediation objectives does not and will
not extend beyond the boundaries of the Right-of- Way.
7. The Highway Authority stipulates it has jurisdiction over the Right-of-Way that gives it sole control over the
use of the groundwater and access to the soil located within or beneath the Right-of-Way.
8. The Highway Authority agrees to prohibit within the Right-of-Way all potable and domestic uses of
groundwater exceeding Tier 1 residential remediation objectives.
9. The Highway Authority further agrees to limit access by itself and others to soil within the Right-of-Way
exceeding Tier 1 residential remediation objectives. Access shall be allowed only if human health
(including worker safety) and the environment are protected during and after any access. The Highway
Authority may construct, reconstruct, improve, repair, maintain and operate a highway upon the Right-of-Way,
or allow others to do the same by permit. In addition, the Highway Authority and others using or working in
the Right-of-Way under permit have the right to remove soil or groundwater from the Right-of-Way and
dispose of the same in accordance with applicable environmental laws and regulations. The Highway
Authority agrees to issue all permits for work in the Right-of-Way, and make all existing permits for work
in the Right-of-Way, subject to the following or a substantially similar condition:
As a condition of this permit the permittee shall request the office issuing this permit to identify sites in the
Right-of-Way where a Highway Authority Agreement governs access to soil that exceeds the Tier 1 residential
remediation objectives of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 742. The permittee shall take all measures necessary to protect
human health (including worker safety) and the environment during and after any access to such soil.
10. This agreement shall be referenced in the Agency’s no further remediation determination issued for the
Release(s).
11. The Agency shall be notified of any transfer of jurisdiction over the Right-of-Way at least 30 days prior to
the date the transfer takes effect. This agreement shall be null and void upon the transfer unless the
transferee agrees to be bound by this agreement as if the transferee were an original party to this
agreement. The transferee’s agreement to be bound by the terms of this agreement shall be memorialized
at the time of transfer in a writing ("Rider") that references this Highway Authority Agreement and is signed
by the Highway Authority, or subsequent transferor, and the transferee.
12. This agreement shall become effective on the date the Agency issues a no further remediation
determination for the Release(s). It shall remain effective until the Right-of-Way is demonstrated to be
suitable for unrestricted use and the Agency issues a new no further remediation determination to reflect
there is no longer a need for this agreement, or until the agreement is otherwise terminated or voided.
13. In addition to any other remedies that may be available, the Agency may bring suit to enforce the terms
of this agreement or may, in its sole discretion, declare this agreement null and void if any of the Parties
or any transferee violates any term of this agreement. The Parties or transferee shall be notified in writing
of any such declaration.
14. This agreement shall be null and void if a court of competent jurisdiction strikes down any part or provision
of the agreement.

(P2) Approval of Sidewalk Café for World of Beer, 1601 Sherman Avenue
Staff recommends approval of a first-time application for a sidewalk café (SWC)
permit for World of Beer a Type 1 Restaurant located at 1601 Sherman Avenue.
For Action
Ald. Rainey moved to recommend approval, seconded by Ald. Holmes.
Chair Fiske called the people who wished to speak to the podium.
Ted Pierce, the business owner, was present in case there were questions.
Marilyn Ruiz of 1580 Sherman noted that there are three entrances to the World of
Beer, on Sherman, Orrington and on Fountain Square. She asked that the café not
be on the Fountain Square side because many people of all ages use it and the

smoke will be inhaled by them. She said she is aware and supportive of economic
development as she has been named North Shore Businesswoman of the Year in the
past. She said the business has been a good neighbor.
Mr. Pierce confirmed that the café will be on the Orrington side.
Mr. Bobkiewicz said the City will work with the owner and that the War Memorial on
Fountain Square is considered a park, which is considered a no-smoking area.
The Committee voted unanimously 5-0 to recommend approval of the sidewalk
café.
(P3) Ordinance 49-O-13; Granting Major Zoning Relief for the Elimination of
Required Parking at 623-627 ½ Howard Street
Staff recommends adoption of Ordinance 49-O-13 granting major zoning relief to
eliminate 8 required off-street parking spaces for a Type 1 Restaurant for a total of
zero off-street parking spaces. The proposal will allow for the redevelopment of a
vacant commercial space and will not negatively impact adjacent properties since
there is ample street parking, and public and private parking lots.
For Introduction
Ald. Wynne moved to recommend introduction, seconded by Ald. Holmes.
Ald. Rainey explained that the reason for the zoning relief is that years ago the
zoning analysis showed 8 garages behind stores, but cars never park in those
garages. They are used for off site storage for businesses in the vicinity. The
previous business was required to lease 8 spaces off site for 24 hours a day. There
are 5 vacant private parking lots on Howard Street. She suggested amending
proposed Ordinance 49-O-13 to require that 8 parking spaces are leased during the
evening hours only, since there is ample parking during the day.
Chair Fiske called the public who wished to speak to the podium.
Junad Rizke of 2784 Sheridan said there is an issue with the City being highly
involved with these deals and asked why the zoning analysis is not done before the
sale occurs. He said after the sale, the City has a financial interest in the business’s
success.
Ald. Rainey said it is not her problem if it doesn’t get approved at that point and she
believes it was clever that the City got them to sign before the zoning/parking was
decided.
Mr. Bobkiewicz clarified that the amendment would require the lease of parking
spaces from 6:00 to midnight.
The Committee voted unanimously 5-0 to recommend introduction of
Ordinance 49-O-13 as amended.

(P4) Ordinance 50-O-13; Amending Various Portions of the City Code in order
to Regulate Vacation Rentals as a Type of B&B Establishment
Staff requests consideration of Ordinance 50-O-13, which would regulate vacation
rentals as a subset of B&B establishments. Consequently, any vacation rental could
operate only pursuant to a Special Use permit issued by the City Council after
recommendation from the ZBA.
For Introduction
Ald. Wilson moved to recommend introduction, seconded by Ald. Wynne.
Chair Fiske called the public who wished to speak to the podium.
Kim Novi of 2507 Ashland thanked the Committee for the Ordinance which she said
addresses most concerns. She said she felt they had listened. She said she would
like the Ordinance to require that the property is owner occupied at the time of the
rental. She asked what it means the City will do in relation to 2515 Ashland, once it is
passed.
Maureen O’Donnel of 2509 Ashland thanked the Committee and said she is
concerned about permitted rentals when the owner is not on the premises. She
noted that on Dobson the non-owner occupied property was the troublesome one.
She urged the Committee to remember that the issue has been going on for over 7
months and she has submitted 127 signatures on a petition and that none of the
neighbors have come forward in support of it.
Mary Rosinski of 1729 Chancellor, said the Ordinance excludes residents who’s
property is in the process of being sold or under renovation. She said the Ordinance
is a step backwards if it stipulates rentals for less than 30 days must acquire a special
use permit adding an extra burden besides the property transfer tax.
Ald. Wilson said her point was well taken. He said he would like to consider how the
revisions will impact the B&B Ordinance and would like a partial re-drafting of the
definition. He suggested that staff take time to address all the concerns voiced, and
noted that someone just needs to apply for the special use.
Ald. Wilson moved to hold the item in Committee in order for exceptions to be
included and for it to tie into other provision definitions.
Ald. Rainey agreed that the Ordinance needs to be cleaned up and moved to
introduce it and return it to Committee, seconded by Ald. Wilson.
Mr. Bobkiewicz agreed there are obvious exceptions such as those involving a real
estate contract.
The Committee voted unanimously 5-0 to recommend Ordinance 50-O-13 be
introduced and returned to Committee.
(P5) Ordinance 46-O-13; Amending the Zoning Ordinance to Allow Yard Waste
Transfer Facilities as Special Uses in the I3 District.
222 of 441
Planning & Development Committee Meeting
Minutes of 5-13-13
Page 4 of 5
The Plan Commission and City staff recommend approval of proposed Ordinance
46-O-13 amending the Zoning Ordinance to allow yard waste transfer facilities as
special uses in the I3 General Industrial District. The P&D Committee held
Ordinance 46-O-13 in committee at its meeting of April 22, 2013, at the request of 9th
Ward Alderman Coleen Burrus.
For Introduction
Ald. Rainey moved to recommend introduction, seconded by Ald. Wynne.
Ald. Rainey said she attended a meeting with Ald. Burrus, the owner/operator and 30
plus people who expressed many concerns.
Chair Fiske called the public who wished to speak to the podium.
Ald. Colleen Burrus of 1312 Cleveland, said she and Ald. Rainey hosted a meeting
for the 8th and 9th wards at which the property owner answered questions and
concerns, which can be addressed in the special use conditions.
Ald. Rainey commented that it was a very reasonable, decent meeting.
The Committee voted unanimously 5-0 to recommend introduction of
Ordinance 46-O-13.
(P6) Resolution 31-R-13; 1890 Maple Avenue Parking Lease
City Manager requests authorization from the City Council to negotiate with PARC
Investment Properties, LLC regarding a parking lease for 1890 Maple Avenue as
provided by Resolution 31-R-13.
For Action
Ald. Rainey explained that when the research park was being created, a builder
named Charles Shaw was building in the area and it was expensive to build with
parking, so the City Council required that the parking lots in the area lease parking to
the office workers in the buildings. But in this case the building includes parking so
paying $30,000 for a parking lease that no one will use or ever did use.
Ald. Wilson agreed that the lease does not apply to the current property.
Ald. Rainey said the Resolution allows the City Manager to negotiate with the new
building owner.
Mr. Bobkiewicz said there is a lease but unless specific findings are made, he will
craft a document that protects Mr. King, the new owner from liability for the lease.
Ald. Wynne said she was on the City Council at the time the lease was put in place
and she anticipated office buildings would be there but Mr. King is not building office
buildings and he is including parking.
Mr. Bobkiewicz said the document will also clarify that the office building has been
vacant.
223 of 441

Minutes of 5-13-13
Page 5 of 5
Ald. Holmes suggested that if there are other similar situations, the Committee should
direct the City Manager to clear those up too. Mr. Bobkiewicz said that one other has
requested an amendment to their lease.
Gregg Graines of DLA Piper, representing Mr. King said in March he submitted a
simple termination and release of the lease since the zoning has changed and the
building is no longer to be used as office space, therefore the lease would no longer
apply.
Chair Fiske said she is concerned that no one has mentioned that other people have
been parking in the dedicated parking spaces.
Mr. Bobkiewicz said he and Mr. Farrar are thankful to Ald. Wilson for his help in
resolving the issue.
The Committee voted unanimously 5-0 to recommend approval of 31-R-13.

For City Council meeting of May 28, 2013 Item P1
Business of the City by Motion: Community Partners for Affordable Housing HOME
Application
For Action
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
Planning and Development Committee
From: Wally Bobkiewicz, City Manager
Dennis Marino, Manager, Planning & Zoning Division
Sarah Flax, Housing and Grants Administrator
Mary Ellen Poole, Housing Planner
Subject: Community Partners for Affordable Housing HOME application
Date: May 20, 2013
Recommendation
The Housing and Homelessness Commission and staff recommend the approval of a
$277,685 forgivable HOME loan to Community Partners for Affordable Housing (CPAH)
for the acquisition and rehabilitation of two housing units for rental that is affordable for
households whose incomes do not exceed 60% of the area median income .
Funding
Funding is provided by the HOME fund. Currently, the City has a balance of
approximately $640,000 in HOME entitlement funds and program income that must be
committed to projects by August 31, 2013. Funding this project would help meet the
required commitment deadline.
Discussion
CPAH is requesting a $277,685 forgivable HOME loan from the City of Evanston to
acquire and rehabilitate two units of housing for affordable rental. Following the direction
of the Planning & Development Committee at its February 25, 2013 meeting, CPAH has
continued to seek to identify a specific property for its project. A suitable property has
not been identified to date. During that time, the City has gotten CPAH approved for
First Look purchases through the National Community Stabilization Trust (NCST) and
other bank First Look programs not handled by NCST, however the banks will not
extend the 10-day First Look period. Properties that do not go under contract during
First Look are listed on MLS, where prices are driven up primarily by investors entering
the scattered site rental market.
The Housing & Homelessness Commission and staff recommend approval of a
scattered site acquisition process similar to the NSP2 program for this project. A
Memorandum
225 of 441
Page 2
residential property or properties must meet the requirements outlined below in order to
be acquired by CPAH. Properties that are eligible for acquisition under HOME
regulations but do not meet the criteria below may not be acquired by CPAH unless
specific approval is received from the City of Evanston and may require additional
action by City Council.
The City of Evanston will enter into an agreement for HOME funds with CPAH to enable
the acquisition of a residential property or properties in Evanston consistent with
applicable law and HOME requirements published at 24 CFR Part 92 "HOME
Investment Partnership Program, Final Rule” and subject to City of Evanston staff
review, but not subject to further City Council action, provided that the following
conditions are met:
a. Evanston property(ies) located in four census block groups 8096002 (boundaries
are Church St, Florence Ave, Greenwood St, Ashland Ave, Dempster St and
Dodge Ave); 8096003 (boundaries are Church St, Dodge Ave, Dempster St and
the canal); 8097002 (boundaries are Dempster St, Florence Ave, Lee St, Brown
Ave, Main St, Pitner Ave, Greenleaf St, Hartrey Ave) & 8097003 (boundaries are
Dempster St, Hartrey Ave, Greenleaf St, Pitner Ave, Main St and the canal) are
prioritized; properties in either census tract 8092 or census tract 8102, the NSP2
target areas, are not eligible (see attached map)
b. Property(ies) comprise at least two units of housing suitable for rental to
households whose incomes do not exceed 60% of the area median income
c. Properties with units having three bedrooms, suitable for larger
families/households, are a priority for acquisition
d. Total HOME investment for acquisition and rehabilitation of the property(ies) will
not exceed $277,685 AND the HOME investment per unit will not exceed the
amounts shown below:
1. $72,750 for one bedroom units (50% of HOME maximum of $145,516)
2. $101,825 for two bedroom units (55% of HOME maximum of $185,136)
3. $143,700 for three bedroom units (60% of HOME maximum of $239,505)
4. $157,740 for four or more bedroom units (60% of HOME maximum of
$262,903)
e. Project must meet The City of Evanston’s HOME underwriting standards as
outlined in the HOME Policies & Procedures manual. This includes, but is not
limited to:
1. Project’s pro forma must maintain a minimum debt service coverage ratio
(the ratio of the Project’s net operating income to its debt service) of 1.05
on all debt, excluding cash flow notes, for the HOME affordability period
2. Project’s pro forma must maintain annual cash flow after debt service (Net
Operating Income/Total Debt Service) of at least $100 per unit for the
HOME affordability period
3. Project must maintain a replacement reserve (funds for repairs and
replacement of building components and equipment) of $400 per unit on
an annual basis
f. Any funds CPAH expends on acquisition prior to staff review and approval of the
property(ies) may not be eligible for reimbursement with HOME funds. This may
include earnest money, costs for appraisals, etc.
g. Developer must have a minimum equity investment of 10%
226 of 441
Page 3
h. Property(ies) must be identified within six months of City Council approval of
project
i. Final project approval and commitment of HOME funds is contingent on
completion of the HUD required Environmental Review Record and, if needed
based on that review, release of funds by HUD
Consistent with the payment process established for NSP2 scattered site acquisition,
payment to CPAH for acquisition costs of the property(ies) approved by City of
Evanston staff based on the above criteria for the HOME project will not require
additional City Council approval prior to payment.
This process prioritizes City of Evanston Consolidated Plan goals to develop units for
larger families while addressing the overall need for rental units affordable to
households with incomes that do not exceed 60% of area median income. This project
will help to preserve the existing housing stock and continue building an inventory of
permanently affordable, environmentally sustainable housing in Evanston. CPAH was
certified as a Community Housing Development Organization (CHDO) in 2013. Funding
for this project would count towards our CHDO set aside obligation for HOME funds as
required by HUD regulations.
CPAH will conduct an environmentally sustainable rehabilitation to ensure the housing
remains affordable for households ≤ 60% AMI. The rental property will be part of the
Land Trust’s portfolio and remain affordable for 84 years beyond the 15 required by
HOME regulations. CPAH has proven capacity and experience developing and
managing scattered site rental. Its Executive Director, Rob Anthony, is an Evanston
resident and will be the primary contact for property management issues.
Three letters of recommendation from the Mayor of Highland Park, the Mayor of Lake
Forest and the Community Development Administrator of Lake County are attached that
speak to the importance of the scattered site acquisition strategy and CPAH’s ability to
complete projects on time and on budget.
The City’s NSP2 scattered site NSP2 program, in partnership with Brinshore
Development, has been doing this type of acquisition/rehab work for the past three
years. Brinshore’s CEO, David Brint, has been on CPAH's advisory board since its
inception and is a long-time supporter. CPAH may consult with Brinshore to gain further
insight on the vacant and foreclosed rental stock in Evanston and potential challenges
that CPAH may encounter.

CPAH is requesting $277,685 forgivable loan from the City of Evanston HOME funds to acquire and
rehabilitate a 2-unit rental building in order to preserve the existing housing stock and continue building
an inventory of permanently affordable, environmentally sustainable housing in Evanston. CPAH will use
the scattered-site, community land trust model to acquire vacant, blighted properties. It will then conduct
an environmentally sustainable rehabilitation to ensure the housing remains affordable for households
under 80% AMI who live and work in the community. CPAH is ready to proceed with this project pending
City Council approval. The remaining funding for the project is already secured.
ranthony@cpahousing.org
Location will be finalized and acquired following commitment of funds. Properties previously considered all in 2nd

CPAH has had success in the past in managing HUD income-restricted rental units. This non-profit CHDO has
developed, acquired, and rehabilitated 42 units of permanently affordable housing in Highland Park and Lake Forest
using the Community Land Trust (CLT) model. CPAH was the first CLT in Illinois and it is the first affordable housing
provider in Illinois to receive LEED-Gold Certification for Hyacinth Place, its award-winning 14-unit townhouse
development.
The need/market demand for the proposed project was directly determined from three sources; the Evanston 2010-2014
Consolidated Plan, the National Low Income Housing Coalition's 2012 "Out of Reach" Report, and finally information
reported by the Housing Authority of Cook County regarding public housing and Housing Choice Vouchers. There is a
great need for larger (3 bed) units.

2 years. Brinshore' s CEO, David Brint has been on CPAH's advisory board since its inception and is a long-time supporter. CPAH may consult with
Brinshore to gain further insight on the vacant and foreclosed rental stock in Evanston and potential challenges that CPAH may encounter.
1. CPAH has been certified as an Evanston CHDO for 2013. CPAH is in the process of replacing the Citizens Lighthouse Community Land Trust
and absorbing their one Evanston property. CPAH has an active Evanston advisory board.
4. CPAH provided 3 letters of recommendation from: The Mayor Highland Park, Mayor of Lake Forest and the Community Development
Administrator of Lake County. The Mayor of Highland Park noted that CPAH was always required to cover all cost overruns and has never come
back to the City to request additional funds to complete a project. All 3 commented that CPAH's model to get city/county approval before a specific
address was identified has allowed CPAH to operate efficiently and effectively and respond quickly with competitive offers on vacant and foreclosed
properties.

Ordinance 36-O-13 Amending the Zoning Ordinance to rezone 1715 Church Street,
1703 Darrow Avenue and 1711 Darrow Avenue from I2 to MXE
For Introduction
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
Planning and Development Committee
From: Wally Bobkiewicz, City Manager
Dennis Marino, Manager, Planning and Zoning Division
Melissa Klotz, Zoning Planner, Planning and Zoning Division
Subject: Proposed Ordinance 36-O-13 Amending the Zoning Ordinance to rezone
1715 Church Street, 1703 Darrow Avenue and 1711 Darrow Avenue from I2
to MXE
Date: May 14, 2013
Recommended Action
The Plan Commission and City staff recommend approval of Ordinance 36-O-13, a map
amendment to rezone the property commonly known as:
1715 Church Street & 1703 Darrow Avenue, PIN 10-13-221-019
1711 Darrow Avenue, PIN 10-13-221-018
from the I2 General Industrial District to the MXE Mixed Use Employment District. The
proposed rezoning is consistent with the Comprehensive General Plan and the current land
use of the property. The proposed rezoning lessens three currently non-compliant zoning
issues, and places the property in a more appropriate zoning district. The property is
already developed with live-work units that meet the intent of the proposed MXE District.
Summary
Property owner John Leineweber has applied for a map amendment to rezone the
aforementioned property from the I2 General Industrial District to the MXE Mixed Use
Employment District. The proposed map amendment is for one property that consists of
two property index numbers (PINs), and is commonly known by the three addresses listed
above. The property features a building with a footprint that comprises over 90% of the lot
size that appears as a one-story warehouse-style building. The property is surrounded by
the R4 General Residential (multifamily) District, and the B2 Business District. Applicant
John Leineweber requests the property be rezoned to the MXE Mixed Use Employment
District to better fit the uses the site attracts. The property is the only I2 zoning remaining
in this area. Other former I2 parcels were rezoned in 2008 as part of the West Evanston
Memorandum
239 of 441
master Plan rezoning. The applicant’s building, known as Strange Lofts, is currently
utilized as live-work units for residents who prefer loft-style living with on-site business and
office spaces.
Property History
Many of the properties in Church-Darrow area were rezoned through a City-initiated
rezoning in 2008 that eliminated the existing industrial zoning except for the subject
property. By rezoning the surrounding properties, the City effectively made the subject
property a spot-zoned I2 District without a continuous link to any other I2 properties.
In accordance with the goals and objectives of the Comprehensive General Plan and the
desire to stimulate neighborhood revitalization, the property was redeveloped as live-work
units known as Strange Lofts. The applicant redeveloped the property with the hope of
attracting small businesses looking to utilize the unique property as a cost-savings with
both livable space and a professional work environment in one. The applicant feels the
underlying I2 zoning creates a hardship when renting out the units because the I2 zoning is
too restrictive for retail and office uses.
Proposed Rezoning
The applicant proposes a map amendment to rezone the property to the MXE Mixed Use
Employment District. The proposed zoning change is consistent with the goals and
objectives of the Comprehensive General Plan, is a better fit for the neighborhood given
the surrounding residential and business zoning districts and uses, and provides more
flexibility for potential businesses to locate at the property. The permitted uses of the MXE
District are typically less intense and have a smaller impact on neighboring properties than
that of the current I2 District. Most notably, the MXE District allows retail goods
establishments and retail services establishments, whereas the I2 District only allows such
uses through the special use process. Rezoning to the MXE District will encourage a
business environment more consistent with the adjacent commercial corridor, while
maintaining certain light industrial aspects such as wholesale uses, trade contractors, and
light manufacturing. The purpose of the MXE District, as stated in the Zoning Ordinance, is
to address areas of the city where manufacturing and industrial uses can coexist with
residential uses. This property already does so within its own lot. Rezoning to match the
adjacent B2 District would be too restrictive given the warehouse-style of the property and
some of the uses the property intends to attract.
Zoning Compliance
The proposed map amendment creates one new non-compliant zoning regulation at the
front yard setback. However, other non-compliant setbacks are lessened, including the
street side yard setback, interior side yard setback, and rear yard setback. As a
comparison from the current I2 District to the proposed MXE District:
240 of 441
I2 MXE Current Site Condition
Front Yard Setback 0’ 10’ 0’
Street Side Yard Setback 15’ 10’ 0’
Interior Side Yard Setback 8’ 5’ 0’
Rear Yard Setback 20’ 5’ 1.8’
Height 45’ 41’ 28’
Parking depends on use 0 spaces on-site
Floor Area Ratio 1.0 1.5 .9
Lot Size none 6,000’ 14,541.7’
* New non-compliance is shaded.
Comprehensive Plan and Other Specifications
Some goals and objectives from the 2000 Comprehensive Plan that apply to this
application include:
Promote the growth and redevelopment of business, commercial, and
industrial areas.
Recognize the benefits of mixing residential, commercial, and
institutional uses in neighborhoods.
Housing stock should continue to offer buyers and renters a desirable
range of choice in terms of style and price.
Maintain a diverse range of business and commercial areas, all of
which will be viable locations for business activity.
The proposed map amendment will encourage the success of the redeveloped mixed use
concept Strange Lofts is attempting to succeed at, while offering residents and potential
business owners of Evanston a diverse choice of live-work options.

Memorandum
To: Chair and Members of the Plan Commission
From: Dennis Marino, Manager, Zoning and Planning Division
Melissa Klotz, Zoning Planner
Subject: Discussion of Draft Map Amendment 36-O-13
1715 Church Street, 1703 Darrow Avenue, 1711 Darrow Avenue,
13PLND-0010
Date: March 6, 2013
Recommendation
Following the February 20, 2013 Zoning Committee meeting, the Zoning Committee of the
Plan Commission and staff recommend approval of Ordinance 36-O-13, a map
amendment to rezone the property commonly known as 1715 Church Street, 1703 Darrow
Avenue, and 1711 Darrow Avenue, PINS 10-13-221-019 and 10-13-221-018 from the I2
General Industrial District to the MXE Mixed Use Employment District. The proposed
rezoning is consistent with the Comprehensive General Plan and the current land use of
the property. The proposed rezoning lessens three currently non-compliant zoning issues,
and creates one new non-compliant setback.
Site/Proposal Background
This property is located at the northeast corner of Church Street and Darrow Avenue. The
proposed rezoning is for one property that consists of two property index numbers (PINs),
and is commonly known by the three addresses listed above. The property features a
building with a footprint that comprises over 90% of the lot size that appears as a one-story
warehouse-style building. The property is surrounded by the R4 General Residential
(multifamily) District, and the B2 Business District. Applicant John Leineweber requests
the property be rezoned to the MXE Mixed Use Employment District to better fit the uses
the site attracts. The property is the only I2 parcel remaining in this area. Other former I2
parcels were rezoned in 2008 as a part of the West Evanston Master Plan rezoning. The
applicant’s building is known as Strange Lofts and is currently utilized as live-work units for
residents who prefer loft-style living with on-site business or office spaces.
Property History
Following a City-sponsored study of the surrounding area, many nearby properties were
rezoned in a City-initiated rezoning in 2008. This rezoning shrunk the industrial corridor
and expanded the R4 General Residential (multifamily) District. Following the 2008
rezoning, the property in question remained I2, but became surrounded to the north, east,
and south by the R4 District, and the B2 District to the west following Church Street. By
rezoning the surrounding properties, the City effectively made the property in question a
253 of 441
spot-zoned I2 District, without a continuous link to any other I2 properties (see attached
zoning map).
In accordance with the goals and objectives of the Comprehensive General Plan, the
property was redeveloped as live-work units known as Strange Lofts. The applicant
redeveloped the property with the hope of attracting small businesses looking to utilize the
unique property as a cost-savings, with both livable space and a professional work
environment in one. Since the redevelopment, the applicant has experience a hardship in
renting out the units because of the restrictive underlying industrial zoning.
Proposed Rezoning
The applicant proposes a map amendment to rezone the property to the MXE Mixed Use
Employment District. The proposed zoning change is consistent with the goals and
objectives of the Comprehensive General Plan, is a better fit for the neighborhood given
the surrounding residential and business zoning districts and uses, and provides more
flexibility for potential businesses to locate at the property. The permitted uses of the MXE
District are typically less intense and have a smaller impact on neighboring properties than
that of the current I2 District. Most notably, the MXE District allows retail goods
establishments and retail services establishments, whereas the I2 District only allows such
uses through the special use process. Rezoning to the MXE District will encourage a
business environment more consistent with the adjacent commercial corridor, while
maintaining certain light industrial aspects such as wholesale uses, trade contractors, and
light manufacturing. The purpose of the MXE District, as stated in the Zoning Ordinance,
is to address areas of the city where manufacturing and industrial uses can coexist with
residential uses. This property already does so within its own lot. Rezoning to match the
adjacent B2 District would be too restrictive given the warehouse-style of the property and
some of the uses the property intends to attract.
Zoning Compliance
The proposed map amendment creates one new non-compliant zoning regulation at the
front yard setback. However, other non-compliant setbacks are lessened, including the
street side yard setback, interior side yard setback, and rear yard setback. As a
comparison from the current I2 District to the proposed MXE District:
I2 MXE Current Site Condition
Front Yard Setback 0’ 10’ 0’
Street Side Yard Setback 15’ 10’ 0’
Interior Side Yard Setback 8’ 5’ 0’
Rear Yard Setback 20’ 5’ 1.8’
Height 45’ 41’ 28’
Parking depends on use 0 spaces on-site
254 of 441
Floor Area Ratio 1.0 1.5 .9
Lot Size none 6,000’ 14,541.7’
Comprehensive Plan and Other Specifications
Some goals and objectives from the 2000 Comprehensive Plan that apply to this
application include:
• Promote the growth and redevelopment of business, commercial, and
industrial areas.
• Recognize the benefits of mixing residential, commercial, and
institutional uses in neighborhoods.
• Housing stock should continue to offer buyers and renters a desirable
range of choice in terms of style and price.
• Maintain a diverse range of business and commercial areas, all of
which will be viable locations for business activity.
The proposed map amendment will encourage the success of the redeveloped mixed use
concept Strange Lofts is attempting to succeed at, while offering residents and potential
business owners of Evanston a diverse choice of live-work options.
Amendment Standards:
For the Zoning Committee to recommend approval of a map amendment, the Zoning
Committee must find:
a) Whether the proposed amendment is consistent with the goals, objectives, and
policies of the Comprehensive General Plan, as adopted and amended from
time to time by the City Council.
b) Whether the proposed amendment is compatible with the overall character of
existing development in the immediate vicinity of the subject property.
c) Whether the proposed amendment will have an adverse impact on the value of
adjacent properties.
d) The adequacy of public facilities and services.

Ms. Klotz presented the proposal and explained the implications of the proposed
zoning change from C2 to MXE.
Commissioner Freeman asked if all of the effected property owners have been
notified, and Ms. Klotz explained that the two effected businesses were notified in
person, but the two small vacant parcels’ owners had not yet been notified. All
property owners effected as well as property owners within 500’ would receive mailed
public notices prior to the Plan Commission public hearing, and public notice signs
would be placed on each property.
Mr. Leineweber added that one of the property owners who currently owns one of the
small vacant parcels previously submitted a building permit to the City for a live-work
structure, but the plan was denied because residences are not allowed in the C2
District.
Commissioner Freeman asked what the drawbacks are to switching from the C2
District to the MXE District, and Ms. Klotz responded that more light industrial uses
are allowed in the MXE District, but those light industrial uses are extremely
compatible with commercial businesses and residences, so there really is no
drawback.
Commissioner Opdycke motioned for approval of the map amendments.
Commissioner Ford seconded the motion, which was approved 5-0.
Commissioner Galloway arrived.

Date: May 13, 2013
Recommended Action
The Plan Commission and City staff recommend approval of Ordinance 37-O-13, a map
amendment to rezone the properties commonly known as:
2153 Ashland Avenue, PIN 10-12-416-006
2143 & 2145 Ashland Avenue, PIN 10-12-416-008

from the C2 Commercial District to the MXE Mixed Use Employment District. The
proposed map amendment is consistent with the Comprehensive General Plan and the
current land use of each property. Staff has discussed the proposed map amendment with
the property owners that currently operate businesses on the sites in question. One
property owner expressed enthusiasm to the proposed zoning change, one was indifferent,
and the last is applicant John Leineweber, who initiated the map amendment.
Summary
Property owner John Leineweber has applied for a map amendment to rezone 2153
Ashland Avenue from the C2 Commercial District to the MXE Mixed Use Employment
District. Mr. Leineweber’s property, 2153 Ashland Avenue, is located between Ashland
Avenue and Green Bay Road, just north of the alley that parallels Payne Street. Following
Memorandum
282 of 441
review of Mr. Leineweber’s application, staff recommends a City-initiated map amendment
to rezone the adjoining properties to the south, which are also currently zoned C2. The
City-initiated properties are located between Ashland Avenue and Green Bay Road, just
north of Payne Street up to the alley that parallels Payne Street. All of the aforementioned
properties are adjoined and surrounded by the C2 Commercial District to the north, railroad
tracks and then the R3 Two-Family Residential District to the east, and the MXE Mixed Use
Employment District to the south and west. The proposed rezoning will link the
aforementioned properties with the adjacent MXE District. The applicant requests 2153
Ashland Avenue be rezoned to the MXE Mixed Use Employment District to better fit the
uses the site attracts, and City staff recommend the adjacent parcels’ rezoning to better fit
the uses currently in place on the site and the general land use of the area. The applican t’s
property features live-work units for residents who prefer loft-style living with on-site
business or office spaces.
Property History
The properties in question were zoned commercial since at least the 1960s. Many of the
properties, including the applicant’s, were never used as commercial properties and
instead featured residences and light industrial uses. Eventually the properties to the west
of Ashland Avenue were rezoned to the MUE Transitional Manufacturing Employment
District to better fit with the residential and industrial uses, however the properties in
question east of Ashland Avenue were not included in that rezoning and remained in the
C2 Commercial District. At the time, some of the properties north of the alley featured
commercial uses fronting Green Bay Road.
Applicant John Leineweber renovated his property at 2153 Ashland Avenue in 2003, which
was a legal non-conforming residence, and converted the property into live-work loft
spaces. The live-work units feature residential areas on the west side of the property (the
house structure) and commercial/office/light industrial spaces on the east side of the
property (the warehouse-style structure). The residential portion of the property is currently
considered legally nonconforming to the C2 District. The City-initiated map amendment
properties all feature non-commercial uses that are light industrial in nature and fit well with
the intent of the MXE District.
Proposed Rezoning
The proposed zoning change is consistent with the goals and objectives of the
Comprehensive General Plan, is a better fit for the neighborhood given the adjacent MXE
uses, which include a mixture of light industrial, commercial, and residential. The MXE
District provides more flexibility for potentially businesses to locate at the applicant’s
property, and either continues or improves the use conformity for all of the City-initiated
properties south of the alley. The current uses for each property in question are:
2153 Ashland Avenue – (owner John Leineweber) live-work lofts
2143 & 2145 Ashland Avenue, 1523 Payne Street – American Vintage
Home, trade contractor and office uses (compliant in both the C2
283 of 441
and MXE Districts)
1515 Payne Street – vacant lot
2150 Green Bay Road – vacant lot
2156 Green Bay Road – All Fresh Food Products, food
Manufacturing and office uses (compliant in both the C2 and MXE
Districts)
City staff has been in contact with representatives of American Vintage Home and All Fresh
Food Products to explain the City-initiated map amendment, and both businesses have no
objection to the zoning change. City staff has not been in contact with the owners of the
vacant parcels at 1515 Payne Street and 2150 Green Bay Road. 1515 Payne Street,
which has a lot width of 35’ and a total square footage of 5,000 square feet, is likely not
large enough to support the economic feasibility of a commercial or industrial use. The
vacant parcel may be more profitable with the proposed MXE zoning, which would allow a
single family residence. 2150 Green Bay Road, which also has a lot width of 35’ but a total
square footage of 2,762 square feet, is likely unbuildable in any zoning district. The
property owners, as well as all property owners within 500’ of the parcels to be rezoned,
were sent public notices of the proposed map amendment, and public notice signs were
posted on each property during the public hearing process.
Zoning Compliance
The proposed map amendment corrects one non-compliance – the FAR at 2153 Ashland
Avenue. The amendment does create one new non-compliant setback – the rear yard
setback for 2156 Green Bay Road, but the property owner has expressed support for the
rezoning. The map amendment creates three non-compliant lot sizes, which is a
negligible issue since the lots were platted long ago and will likely never need to change.

Comprehensive Plan
Some goals and objectives from the 2000 Comprehensive Plan that apply to this
application include:
Promote the growth and redevelopment of business, commercial, and
industrial areas.
Recognize the benefits of mixing residential, commercial, and
institutional uses in neighborhoods.
Housing stock should continue to offer buyers and renters a desirable
range of choice in terms of style and price.
Maintain a diverse range of business and commercial areas, all of
which will be viable locations for business activity.
The proposed map amendment will encourage the success of the redeveloped mixed use
concept of the live-work units, and should not have any impact on the existing trade
contractor and food manufacturing uses.

Ordinance 53-O-13 Application for Special Use for a Resale Establishment at 1104
Davis Street
For Introduction
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
Planning and Development Committee
From: Wally Bobkiewicz, City Manager
Dennis Marino, Manager, Planning and Zoning Division
Susan Guderley, Neighborhood Planner, Planning and Zoning Division
Subject: Ordinance 53-O-13 Granting a Special Use for a Resale Establishment at
1104 Davis Street
Date: May 14, 2013
Recommended Action
The Zoning Board of Appeals and City staff recommend the adoption of Ordinance 53-O-
13 granting a special use permit for a Resale Establishment for office furniture at 1104
Davis Street called Not Fade Away. The applicant has complied with all zoning
requirements and meets all of the standards of a Special Use in this District. The
applicant currently owns an office furniture liquidation and wholesale business in Niles,
Illinois.
Summary
The subject property is developed with a 3-story, mixed used building (nine ground floor
commercial storefronts, with sixteen, multi-family residential units above). The applicant is
a lessee of one storefront from which he proposes to operate a used office furniture store,
named Not Fade Away. The storefront space proposed for this resale establishment is
approximately 600 square feet in size. Ingress and egress for all uses (employees,
customers, and all deliveries) will be via an entrance fronting Davis Street. Although there
is a rear door to the commercial space, it leads to a gangway shared by an adjacent
multi-family building to the south which is secured by locked fencing at both ends.
The applicant states that he owns and operates another used furniture business, Whole
Cubes, in Niles, Illinois. That operation includes both office furniture liquidations and
wholesale distribution to office furniture dealers, who then retail the inventories. The
majority of the used furniture acquired through liquidation is sold in-bulk to dealers. Yet,
most liquidation also results in some items that are not in large quantities and which
cannot be sold wholesale. Since 2010, the applicant has donated these items to
community and not-for-profit organizations. However, the business still results in more
Memorandum
330 of 441
product than can be donated or warehoused. Most of these items are smaller pieces of
office furniture – side tables, chairs, and file cabinets. Rather than send reusable items to
landfills, the applicant proposes to sell them from the Davis Street storefront and to
donate the net proceeds (revenues minus operating expenses of rent, utilities and
insurance) to Evanston community and social service organizations. The applicant plans
to ultimately staff the store entirely by volunteers. However, until that plan can be fully
implemented, the applicant’s other business will donate an employee’s time to fill in, as
needed.
The subject property is situated at the western edge of downtown Evanston’s Davis Street
business corridor, on the southwest corner of its intersection with Oak Avenue. The
subject property is zoned D4 as is the property immediately to the north across Davis
Street, the site of the main Evanston Post Office. To the east, between Oak and Maple
Avenues, business properties on both the north and south sides of Davis are zoned D2,
Downtown Retail Core. This area contains a diverse mix of retail sales, professional
services and restaurants. Properties immediately south and west of the subject property
are zoned R6 General Residential and developed with multi-family residential buildings.
The nearest business selling previously owned items is a used book store about 1,000
feet to the east. However, used book stores are specifically excluded from consideration
under the definition of resale establishment in the Zoning Ordinance.
Inventory will be delivered to the subject location twice weekly, on weekdays between the
hours of 7-9:00 a.m. Temporary parking for deliveries can be found either in an alley to
the west or along Oak Street to the east, with items hand-trucked to the Davis Street
entrance. Because of their smaller size, it is expected that items sold will also leave the
store via the Davis Street entrance and carried by customers to their vehicles. The store
will not offer delivery from this location.
Like other commercial uses in the multi-tenant building, there is no available off-street
parking for customers or employees associated with 1104 Davis Street. However, there is
a substantial amount of on-street parking within one block radius along Davis and both
metered and non-metered, 2-hour, on-street parking along Oak Avenue. The subject
property is also within a 3-block walk of both the CTA and Metra stations, as well as
multiple downtown parking garages and surface lots.
Neighborhood Benefit
This special use will fill a now vacant storefront space with a compatible use and will not
result in any negative cumulative impacts.
Comprehensive Plan
The proposed use is consistent with the Comprehensive General Plan’s Goal policy to
promote a mixed-use central business district that is attractive, convenient and
economically vibrant. The Comprehensive Plan specifically includes:
Objective: Implement strategies that enhance the economic vitality of
Downtown Evanston.

Tuesday, April 23, 2013
7:30 PM
Civic Center, 2100 Ridge Avenue, Council Chambers
Members Present: Andrew Gallimore, Matt Rodgers, Lori Summers, Beth McLennan,
Scott Gingold, Clara Wineberg
Members Absent: Mary Beth Berns
Staff Present: Melissa Klotz, Susan Guderley, Dennis Marino, Ken Cox
Presiding Member: Lori Summers
Declaration of Quorum
With a quorum present, Chairman Summers called the meeting to order at 7:35pm.
Unfinished Business
1622 Forest Place ZBA 13ZMJV-0017
Patriot Park LLC, property owner, applies for a special use for a bed and breakfast
establishment at 1622 Forest Place. 1622 Forest Place is located in the R1 Single Family
Residential District, which requires a special use permit for a bed and breakfast establishment
to operate (Zoning Code Section 6-8-2-4). The Zoning Board of Appeals makes a
recommendation to City Council, the determining body for this case.
Tom O’Brien commented that 2 bed and breakfast establishments in such close proximity to
each other are too many, and wondered if such approval would set a precedent for more.
Chairman Summers noted that the Plan Commission recommended a minimum 900’ distance
requirement between such establishments but the regulation was not approved by City Council.
Chairman Summers asked for clarification on the floorplan regarding the unlabeled bedrooms
on the third floor. Mr. Scoot explained the bedrooms will be utilized as living space for the B&B
manager.
Mr. Scott noted the immediate neighbors have not commented in opposition to the proposal,
and Mr. Gingold added that they have also not commented in favor.
Ms. Cooper noted the economic benefit of having another B&B in Evanston will be minimal
since only 5 bedrooms will be available for use. She asked if stronger noise regulations should
be implemented than the City’s noise ordinance since B&Bs may have outdoor events often but
are surrounded by residences. She then cited examples for large homes in the area that have
recently sold after a few days or weeks on the market.
Mr. Gingold asked if an incremental economic benefit study was done, and Mr. Scott explained
that such a study was not done, however it is the intent of the B&B for guests frequent Evanston
shops and restaurants.
The Zoning Board entered into Deliberations:
Mr. Rodgers felt the commercialization was not a big issue, but was concerned with the close
proximity to the other B&B, and noted that the amount of money being invested in the property
337 of 441
APPROVED
Page 2 of 5
Zoning Board of Appeals
may push the home into a higher price point where it could not revert back to a single family
residence.
Mr. Gingold noted that according to the minutes from the 300 Church Street B&B public hearing,
Mr. Scott stated there was no plan for more B&Bs in the area. Mr. Gingold felt the B&B
ordinance was created for existing homeowners to utilize their homes, not for a corporation to
purchase a property to run as a business. He added there will be a negative cumulative effect,
and many of the Standards are not met. Ms. Wineberg agreed, and added that the use would
diminish the characteristics of the neighborhood.
Ms. McLennan disagreed. She explained that she lived in resort communities with many nice
B&Bs. She applauded the intense renovations and adaptive reuse the applicants intend. She
noted that the house, as a $8-9 million dollar property without beach access, will likely be priced
out of the single family residence range, but the work needs to be done to it either way.
Mr. Gallimore added hotels and B&Bs in Evanston are lacking. This is a large lot so much of
the noise will be mitigated and not have the same issues as current illegal rentals that are on
small lots.
Chairman Summers noted that parking is not an issue at this property and the coach house is
not an issue, but there may be a negative cumulative effect, and the proposal may not keep with
the intent of the Comprehensive Pan since it isn’t specifically addressed in the Comprehensive
Plan.
Mr. Gingold explained that he has no problem with B&Bs but it was not the intent of the Zoning
Ordinance for corporations to establish multiple B&Bs as businesses. A financier with 99%
ownership with a manager owning 1% is not the intent of the ordinance.
Ms. Wineberg added the intent of the Zoning Ordinance is not to create a resort area along the
lakefront.
The Standards were then addressed:
1) Yes
2) No – Scott, Clara, Lori
Yes – Beth, Matt, Andrew
3) No – Scott, Clara, Matt, Lori
Yes – Andrew, Beth
4) Yes – Lori, Beth, Math, Andrew
No – Scott, Clara
5) Yes – but require commercial garbage pick up
6) Yes
7) Yes
8) Yes
9) Yes
Mr. Rodgers motioned to recommend approval with the following conditions:
1) No full kitchen on the third floor.
2) Commercial garbage pickup is required.
3) The coach house shall have a minimum 1 year lease and not be part of the B&B.
4) The project be in substantial compliance with the documents and testimony on record.
Ms. McLennan seconded the motion, which was denied 2-4 with members McLennan and
Gallimore voting in favor and members Wineberg, Gingold, Summers, and Rodgers voting
opposed.

New Business
623 – 627 ½ Howard Street ZBA 13ZMJV-0022
Douglas Lasch, architect, applies for major zoning relief to eliminate 8 required off-street parking
spaces for a Type 1 Restaurant. The applicant requests to eliminate 8 required off-street
parking spaces for a total of zero off-street parking spaces (Zoning Code Section 6-16-3-5).
The Zoning Board of Appeals makes a recommendation to City Council, the determining body
for this case.
Mr. Rodgers noted that he lives within 500’ of the subject property but his judgment would not
be affected by the proximity of his residence.
Applicant Douglas Lasch explained the proposal:
• The project includes a gut rehab of the entire property, including the addition of an
outdoor courtyard and seating area. The garage would be turned in to a micro-brewery.
• The garage will have the same appearance from the alley side, although only one
garage door will be functional.
• Staff could park in nearby City lot, take public transportation, or possibly at Sherwin
Williams lot.
• Looked at options that would not eliminate the garage parking, but there wasn’t a
feasible plan.
• Valet parking for patrons will be available if the restaurant is busy enough to warrant it.
• Currently working on parking lease with Sherwin Williams to lease parking spaces in
their lot.
Mr. Rodgers noted that there is currently a proposal in review for the residential area just north
of the proposed restaurant to make street parking available only to Evanston residents between
6pm and 6am.
Mr. Lasch noted the hardship is that there is not enough space available in the building to
operate the restaurant and micro-brewery without utilizing the garage area, and the business
cannot be successful without the micro-brewery.
Dennis Marino, Manager, Planning & Zoning, noted the City lot is on Howard Street and
Chicago Avenue and is historically underutilized. Valet parking could utilize that lot as well.
Chairman Summers asked how many parking spaces are available at the Sherwin Williams site,
and Mr. Lasch responded that there are more than 10 spaces available.
Alderman Ann Rainey explained that within the 600 and 700 blocks of Howard Street, on both
sides of the street, there are 6 large parking lots that are virtually empty from 7am – 2am, and
are available for valet leases for a total of more than 100 available parking spaces.
The Zoning Board entered into Deliberations:
Chairman Summers noted that a parking lease should be required for staff parking, as well as
some customer parking during peak times.
Mr. Gingold added that a condition should be added so that staff cannot utilize the street
parking.
The Zoning Board members found all Standards to be met.
Mr. Gingold motioned to recommend approval of the parking variance with the following
conditions:
339 of 441
APPROVED
Page 4 of 5
Zoning Board of Appeals
1) Staff may not park on the street.
2) 8 off-street parking spaces within the vicinity of the proposed restaurant must be leased.
3) Valet parking must be available during peak business hours.
4) The proposal must be within substantial compliance with the documents and testimony
on record.
The motion was seconded by Ms. McLennan and approved 6-0.
1404 – 1406 Greenleaf Street ZBA 13ZMJV-0020
Russell and Paula Wagner, property owners, apply for major zoning relief to replace an existing
detached garage with a larger detached garage. The applicants request a separation between
the principal structure and accessory structure (detached garage) of 4.1’ where 10’ is required
(Zoning Code Section 6-4-6-2-C). The Zoning Board of Appeals is the determining body for this
case.
Applicants Russell and Paula Wagner explained the project:
• Current garage is dilapidated and too small to fit a car
• Current garage is below grade so it floods
• Intend to replace with a solid brick garage to address fire rating concerns
• Has support from immediate neighbors
• Space above the garage will be used for storage for the on-site business
Ms. Klotz explained the rental house is nonconforming and does not affect the garage use. Ms.
Klotz also noted because of the B Zoning District, the property is analyzed with FAR, which is
compliant at .49 with the proposed garage.
The Zoning Board entered into Deliberations:
The Zoning Board found the Standards to be met.
Mr. Rodgers motioned for approval with the following conditions:
1) The garage must be constructed with a 1 hour separation fire rated wall where it is
adjacent to the rental house.
2) The project must be within substantial compliance of the documents and testimony on
record.
Ms. McLennan seconded the motion, which was approved 6-0.
1104 Davis Street ZBA 13ZMJV-0021
Joel Stein, lessee applies for a special use for a Resale Establishment at 1104 Davis Street.
1104 Davis Street is located in the D4 Downtown Transition District, which requires a special
use permit for Resale Establishments to operate (Zoning Code Section 6-11-5-3). The Zoning
Board of Appeals makes a recommendation to City Council, the determining body for this case.
Applicant Joel Stein explained the proposal:
• Sell surplus small office furniture that is left over from large wholesale business.
• Plans to give away all proceeds but will not technically be a non-profit establishment.
• Will restock a few times a week as needed with a small van.
• Will look like a retail shop, not a warehouse.
• Hours of operation 10am-5pm Monday-Friday and possibly 11am-4pm on Saturdays.
The Zoning Board entered into Deliberations:
The Zoning Board found the Standards to be met.

Date: April 23, 2013
Notice – Published in the April 4, 2013 Evanston Review
Joel Stein, lessee, applies for a special use for a Resale Establishment at 1104 Davis
Street. 1104 Davis Street is located in the D4 Downtown Transition District, which
requires a special use permit for Resale Establishments to operate (Zoning Code
Section 6-11-5-3). The Zoning Board of Appeals makes a recommendation to City
Council, the determining body for this case.
Recommendation
Staff recommends the Zoning Board of Appeals provide a recommendation of approval
to the City Council for a special use permit to operate a resale establishment, as
described by the application and supporting testimony. SPAARC also voted
unanimously (7-0) to recommend approval of this project. Although the proposed use
clearly falls within the definition of a resale establishment it will function more as an
outlet store, selling only merchandise from the owner’s other business. It will not permit
the drop-off of used goods by others. There are no other resale establishments within
the general area and, as proposed, there will be little discernible difference between the
operation of this business from others in the same building, including hours of operation,
the handling of deliveries or employee and customer access.
Site/Proposal Background
The subject property is developed with a 3-story, mixed used building (nine ground floor
commercial storefronts, with sixteen, multi-family residential units above). The applicant
is a lessee of one storefront from which he proposes to operate a used office furniture
store, named Not Fade Away.
The applicant states that he owns and operates another used furniture business, Whole
Cubes, in Niles, Illinois. That operation includes both office furniture liquidations and
wholesale distribution to office furniture dealers, who then retail the inventories. The
majority of the used furniture acquired through liquidation is sold in-bulk to dealers. Yet,
most liquidations also result in some items that are not in large quantities and which
Memorandum
344 of 441
cannot be sold wholesale. Since 2010, the applicant has donated these items to
community and not-for-profit organizations. However, the business still results in more
product than can be donated or warehoused. Most of these items are smaller pieces of
office furniture – side tables, chairs, and file cabinets. Rather than discard and landfill
reusable items, the applicant proposes to sell them from the Davis Street storefront and
to donate the net proceeds (revenues minus operating expenses of rent, utilities and
insurance) to Evanston community and social service organizations. The applicant
plans to ultimately staff the store entirely by volunteers. However, until that plan can be
fully realized, he states that his other business will donate an employee’s time to fill in,
as needed.
The subject property is situated at the western edge of the downtown Evanston’s Davis
Street business corridor, on the southwest corner of its intersection with Oak Avenue.
The subject property is zoned D4 as is the property immediately to the north across
Davis Street, the site of the main Evanston Post Office. To the east, between Oak and
Maple Avenues, business properties on both the north and south sides of Davis are
zoned D2, Downtown Retail Core. This area contains a diverse mix of retail sales (e.g.
bakery, hardware, stereo equipment, hobby shop), professional services (e.g. eye wear,
insurance, recording studio) and restaurants. Properties immediately south and west of
the subject property are zoned R6 General Residential and developed with multi-family
residential buildings. The nearest business selling previously owned items is a used
book store about 1,000 feet to the east. However, used book stores are specifically
excluded from consideration under the definition of resale establishment in the Zoning
Ordinance.
The proposed use is consistent with the Comprehensive General Plan’s Goal policy to
“Support efforts to improve the variety of retail businesses in the Downtown to
strengthen it as a regional shopping center..” in order to provide attractions both for
those already in the area as well as those thinking about coming to Downtown
Evanston.
The storefront space proposed for this resale establishment is approximately 600
square feet in size. Ingress and egress for all uses (employees, customers and all
deliveries) will be obtained via an entrance onto Davis Street. Although there is a rear
door to the commercial space, it leads to a gangway shared by an adjacent multi-family
building to the south which is secured by locked fencing at both ends.
The applicant proposes to deliver inventory to the subject location twice weekly, on
weekdays between the hours of 7-9:00 a.m. Temporary parking for deliveries can be
found either in an alley to the west or along Oak Street to the east, with items hand
trucked to the Davis Street entrance. Staff observed this same method being used by
existing businesses. Because of their smaller size, it is expected that items sold will also
leave the store via the Davis Street entrance and carried by customers to their vehicles.
The store will not offer delivery from this location.
.
There is no off-street parking associated with1104 Davis Street. However, within a one
block radius there is 2-hour, metered, on-street parking along Davis and both metered
and non-metered, 2-hour, on-street parking along Oak Avenue. The subject property is
also within a 3-block walk of both the CTA and Metra stations.

For City Council meeting of May 28, 2013 Item P5
Ordinance 50-O-13: Regulating Vacation Rentals as Type of B&B Establishment
For Action
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
Planning & Development Committee
From: W. Grant Farrar, Corporation Counsel
Subject: Ordinance 50-O-13, Amending Various Portions of the City Code in order
to Regulate Vacation Rentals as a Type of B&B Establishment
Date: May 22, 2013
Recommended Action:
Staff requests consideration of Ordinance 50-O-13. This ordinance was introduced at
City Council on May 13, 2013 and referred back to committee in order to consider
additional amendments, now set forth in Sections 6 and 7.
Summary:
Staff presents Ordinance 50-O-13 in response to the Committee’s April 1 and May 13
discussions and direction regarding vacation rentals. If adopted, 50-O-13 would
regulate vacation rentals as a subset of B&B establishments. Consequently, any
vacation rental, including the Ashland property, could operate only pursuant to a Special
Use permit issued by the City Council after recommendation from the ZBA, and a
license issued by the Health Department. A party that operates a vacation rental
without a Special Use permit would be subject to citations, heard in Administrative
Adjudication. Persons cited have the right, under the City Code, to stay A.A.
proceedings if they appeal the citations to ZBA.
Below is a summary of the body of 50-O-13:
Sections 2, 3, and 5 harmonize the multiple appearances of the definition of “B&B
Establishment” that appear in the Zoning Ordinance and Health regulation s.
Section 4 removes the requirement that every B&B operate from a single- or two-
family residence so vacation rentals – not traditional B&B’s – may operate out of
multi-family dwellings.
Sections 6 and 7 allow operation of temporary Vacation Rentals for 1 rental period
per 12-month period pursuant to: a sale-leaseback of the dwelling unit; if the guests
are displaced from their own dwelling due to renovation/repair; or, to allow flexibility
for unforeseen circumstances, if the operator demonstrates hardship.
Memorandum
365 of 441
Page 2 of 2
Section 8 removes the requirement that an operator be on-site whenever guests are
present for vacation rentals only – not traditional B&B’s – because the owner-
operator may vacate the premises so guests may occupy the dwelling unit.
All other standard B&B regulations would apply to non-temporary Vacation Rentals:
Allowable by Special Use only in the R1-R6, B1, T1, and T2 zoning districts
Maximum 28-day stay
Licensed by Health Department
Subject to inspection by City staff
Legislative History:
On September 24, October 8, and November 26, 2012, and January 14, March 2, and
April 1, 2013, the P&D Committee considered the ban (1-O-13) or licensing (35-O-13) of
vacation rentals. On April 22, P&D and Council removed both prior ordinances from the
agenda in order to consider this third ordinance instead. On May 13, 2013, P&D
considered this ordinance. It was introduced at City Council and referred back to
committee in order to consider additional amendments, now set forth in Sections 6 and
7.

Sixth Illinois Constitutional Convention found that
home-rule powers are most urgently needed by larger municipalities in the
more highly urbanized areas of the state. Although the problems of urban
society affect many small localities, they are felt most intensely in larger
cities and villages. Dense concentrations of population and industry call
for the creative use of flexible governmental powers to achieve and
maintain order, social justice and a satisfactory quality of life. (7 Record of

governing body can create an ordinance specifically suited for the unique
needs of its residents and is keenly and uniquely aware of the needs of

120/1 et seq.), received input from the public and carefully considered the issue of
vacation rentals; and
WHEREAS, during the P&D Committee meeting on March 2, 2013, the
Committee heard public opinion supporting prohibition, exemplified by a resident who was
concerned that, because of operation of Vacation Rentals near his home, he no longer
knew his neighbors; and

prohibition, saying that banning short-term rentals would eliminate a safety risk; and
WHEREAS, during the P&D Committee meeting on March 2, 2013, the
Committee heard public opinion against prohibition, exemplified a resident who stated
that property owners have the right to rent their homes for weekends and that the need

For City Council meeting of May 28, 2013 Item P6
Ordinance 46-O-13, Amending the Zoning Ordinance to Allow Yard Waste Transfer
Facilities as Special Uses in the I3 District
For Action
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
Planning and Development Committee
From: Wally Bobkiewicz, City Manager
Dennis Marino, Manager, Planning and Zoning Division
Melissa Klotz, Zoning Planner, Planning and Zoning Division
Subject: Proposed Ordinance 46-O-13 Amending the Zoning Ordinance to allow Yard
Waste Transfer Facilities as Special Uses in the I3 District.
Date: May 7, 2013
The P&D Committee held Ordinance 46-O-13 in committee at its meeting of April 22, 2013,
at the request of 9th Ward Alderman Coleen Burrus. On May 2, 2013, a neighborhood
meeting was held to discuss the ordinance, including concerns about odors possibly
emanating from yard waste transfer facilities and the effects of such uses on residential
areas. The applicants for the proposed text amendment, 8th Ward Alderman Ann Rainey,
9th Ward Alderman Burrus, Ken Cox of the City’s Law Department, and concerned citizens
attended the meeting. This ordinance was introduced at the May 13, 2013 City Council
meeting
Recommended Action
The Plan Commission and City staff recommend amending the Zoning Ordinance to allow
yard waste transfer facilities as special uses in the I3 General Industrial District. The
proposed text amendment was initiated by a party interested in operating a business that
includes a yard waste transfer facility, which is the accumulation of yard waste from
landscape contractors that would be transferred to a recycling facility outside the city
approximately every 24 hours. Yard waste includes grass clippings, leaves, tree prunings
and woody wastes, weeds, brush, and other compostable landscape material. The only I3
District in Evanston is surrounded by I1 and C1 Districts, with the nearest residential area
over 400 feet away from the closest portion of the I3 District.
Summary
Applicants Jim Seckelmann and Scott Scholler of J&S LLC have applied for a text
amendment to the Zoning Ordinance to allow landscape (yard) waste facilities as special
uses in the I3 General Industrial District. The applicants plan to operate a facility at 2535
Oakton Street that features two principal activities: landscape material sales, which is a
Memorandum
374 of 441
permitted trade contractor use, and a yard waste transfer facility, which is currently not a
use listed in the Zoning Ordinance. The proposed Zoning Ordinance change would apply
to all properties located within Evanston’s only I3 District, which is located on the west side
of the city adjacent to the canal, and on the north side of Oakton Street. The applicants’
specific site at 2535 Oakton Street would be discussed in the special use process.
The proposed yard waste transfer facility would provide small landscape contractors with a
location in the city where they could drop off yard waste such as grass clippings, branches,
and trimmed greenery, and then purchase wholesale landscape materials in a one-stop
shopping experience. All yard waste would be transferred to off-site recycling and
composting facilities. This use requires an Illinois EPA permit that specifies the duration
the waste materials may stay at the transfer site to a time period of 24 hours during the
week and slightly longer on weekends. The yard waste would not be permitted at the
transfer site for extended periods of time.
All yard waste would be covered and secured daily per Illinois EPA regulations. Trucks
would remove the waste once or twice daily, as necessary, to be transferred to an off-site
recycling and composting facility. For the duration the materials would remain on-site
awaiting transfer, the yard waste would be treated with a misting deodorizer when
necessary to minimize odors. The applicants have committed to all preventable measures
to ensure strong odors do not emanate off-site.
Yard waste transfer facilities should be allowed by special use in the I3 District, which is the
most intense industrial district in the city and permits other uses of similar intensity such as
automobile body and service repair establishments, automobile storage lots, heavy
manufacturing, and pharmaceutical manufacturing. The Zoning Ordinance states:
The I3 general industrial district is intended to provide sites for manufacturing
and industrial uses under controls that minimize any adverse effects on
property in nearby residential, business, and commercial districts.
The special use process would allow the City to condition any special use for yard waste
transfer facilities to address site-specific concerns including hours of operation and
potential nuisance issues. The special use process also allows all property owners within
500 feet to voice their concerns in a public hearing. The only I3 District in Evanston is
surrounded by I1 and C1 Districts, with the nearest residential area over 400 feet away
from the closest I3 area. Due to the high intensity and potential issues of such use, it is not
recommended to allow such facilities in any other zoning district.
In addition to the proposed land use regulation, a zoning definition must be established.
The definition is proposed as:
Yard Waste Transfer Facility – A non-governmental facility that accepts yard
waste and wood waste, as defined in City Code Section 8-4-1, as amended,
375 of 441
and/or landscape waste, as defined in 415 ILCS 5/3.270, as amended, for
sorting and/or consolidation prior to transfer to an off-site recycling and/or
composting facility. Composting on-site is prohibited. Any mechanical
facilities used for the processing of such yard/landscape waste must be
incidental in nature.
The zoning definition refers to City Code Section Title 8, Health and Sanitation, which
defines yard waste as:
Yard Waste – grass clippings, leaves, tree prunings and woody wastes,
weeds, brush, and other compostable landscape type materials.
The proposed use and special use regulation fits well with the goals and objectives of th e
Comprehensive Plan, which include:
Goal: Retain and enhance a diversity of business, commercial, and industrial
areas as desirable locations of economic activity.
Objective: Promote the growth and redevelopment of business, commercial,
and industrial areas.
Objective: Retain and attract businesses in order to strengthen Evanston’s
economic base.
The applicants plan to apply for a special use permit as soon as possible following the
adoption of the proposed yard waste transfer facility regulations.

With a quorum present, Chairman Peters called the meeting to order at 7:05 P.M.
2. APPROVAL OF MARCH 13, 2013 MEETING MINUTES
Commissioner Ledesma motioned for approval of the March 13, 2013 meeting minutes.
Commissioner Freeman seconded the motion.
A voice vote was taken and the minutes were approved 6-0.
3. TEXT AMENDMENT TO THE ZONING ORDINANCE 13PLND-0015
Consider a text amendment, pursuant to City Code Title 6, Zoning, to discuss the
zoning regulations for landscape waste recycling transfer facilities as special uses
in the I3 General Industrial District.
Melissa Klotz, Zoning Planner, explained the proposed text amendments and
summarized the Zoning Committee’s deliberations related to the addition of a definition
for landscape waste recycling transfer facilities and their introduction as a special use
within the I3 General Industrial District. Should the text amendments be approved,
applicants Jim Secklmann and Scott Scholler, J&S LLC, intend to pursue a special use
permit to establish and operate a landscape waste recycling transfer facility and
landscape material sales operation at 2535 Oakton Avenue. The applicants and their
consultant Jeramiah Yeksavich, Rolf C. Campbell & Associates, described the nature of
landscape waste recycling transfer facilities and their regulation by the IEPA, which does
permit local zoning review.
Commissioner Ford asked if the recycling function needed to be conducted on a pad or
foundation. Mr. Scholler said that the IEPA requires these operations to be enclosed.
Commissioner Freeman asked if there were any existing landscape waste recycling

transfer facilities within the City. Dennis Marino, Manager of Planning & Zoning Division,
stated that staff had examined other landscaping facilities and found that the most similar
one had a long history of various operations and was now primarily a landscape material
sales business. Any other activity on that site was an incidental use and not of the
nature or scale proposed by either this text amendment or governed by state regulations.
Commissioner Putta asked how the City of Evanston currently disposes of the materials
generated by its forestry operations and whether the location of this facility will be of
benefit to the city. Mr. Secklmann stated that his company currently operates a wood
collection and chipping facility for the City by Mount Trashmore. The City uses some of
the resulting wood chips; the remainder is trucked offsite. He also noted that the IEPA
regulations do not apply to woody landscape wastes, only to compostable plant materials
like grass clippings. Consequently, there is no State-mandated time limit for the removal
of woody waste from a processing site; typically, his operations remove these on a
weekly basis.
Chair Peters observed that the proposed definition incorporates the EPA statutory
language which only applies yard waste and noted that it needed to be amended to add
reference to woody waste. He also recommended that any reference to time limits be
deleted from the definition as they only apply to the compostable component of the
waste stream (Section 2 of the proposed Ordinance) and referenced in the Special Use
citation (Section 3 of the proposed Ordinance).
Chair Peters asked if there were any members of the public wishing to comment. Debbie
Hillman, 1118 Sherman Avenue, stated that she supports the general topic of
composting but also wanted to alert the Commission that State Representative Robyn
Gabel is currently sponsoring a bill on urban composting that would eliminate permitting
for defined, smaller operations.
Commissioner Ford motioned for approval of the text amendment, revised to reflect
Chairman Peters recommendation to insert a reference to woody waste in Section 2 of
the proposed text and to move the reference to state regulations pertaining to time limits
to Section 3, Special Uses. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Freeman. The
motion was approved 6-0.
4. TEXT AMENDMENT TO THE ZONING ORDINANCE 13PLND-0018
Consider a text amendment, pursuant to City Code Title 6, Zoning, to discuss the
zoning regulations of indoor recreation facilities as permitted and special uses.
Ms. Klotz explained the proposed text amendment. She noted that there are two parties
who are considering establishing indoor recreational facilities on properties zoned I2,
General Industrial, pursuant to approval of the text amendment. One proposes to convert
an existing industrial building on Dempster Street, between Dodge and Hartrey Avenues,
into an indoor soccer practice and game facility. The second is a proposal to establish a
‘bubble dome’ type structure on Oakton Street for use on a rental basis for multiple
sports.
Commissioner Ford motioned for approval of the text amendment, and was seconded by
Commissioner Freeman. The motion was approved 6-0.

Subject: 47-O-13, “Commercial Indoor Recreation” Zoning Text Amendment
Date: May 23, 2013
Following the discussion on May 13, 2013, please find information responsive to the
questions that were asked.
Ordinance 47-O-13
It permits an owner or lessee of property in the I2 District to apply for a Special Use
Permit for a Commercial Indoor Recreation facility. This procedure is the same as for
other Special uses, such as Type 2 Restaurants:
Notice of the application is mailed to owners of properties within 500’ of the
subject property and published 15-30 days prior to the ZBA meeting (6-3-5-7-(B))
ZBA considers the application (6-3-5-7-(A)) based on 9 standards (6-3-5-10)
ZBA recommends that the P&D Committee and Council deny, approve, or
approve with conditions (6-3-5-7-(C))
P&D Committee makes its own recommendation to the full City Council (6-3-5-8)
City Council issues a final legislative determination (6-3-5-8)
A special use process from application to Council approval can take 90-120 days.
An applicant for a Special use Permit for a Commercial Indoor Recreation use could
conduct operations if Council approved the Special use.
Property Taxes
If a not-for-profit entity were to lease a City-owned facility and operate a Commercial
Indoor Recreation facility, it may be subject to property taxes, as determined by the Cook
County Assessor’s Office and Board of Review. The ultimate responsibility for paying
any such taxes should be a negotiated term of any such lease.
In the case of a privately owned property leased to a non-profit, we reviewed the Cook
County Board of Review (“CCBR”) policies for information concerning tax payments.
Confirming our initial view, an exempt tenant may apply for the property tax exemption,
Memorandum
407 of 441
subject to certain restrictions. A church or charity may apply for the exemption if it
agrees in writing to be responsible for paying the property tax on the area it leases. The
organization must prove to the CCBR that the organization is charitable and religious. If
an exemption is received, it must be renewed annually. A church is not required to own
the property outright to possibly receive an exemption. It must show to the CCBR’s
satisfaction that it is using the property exclusively for non-profit religious purposes. An
entity must pay taxes unless and until it receives an exemption. Pending receipt of an
exemption, an entity must pay under protest and then get a Certificate of Error for
reimbursement of taxes previously paid out.

Proposed Ordinance 47-O-13 Amending the Zoning Ordinance to allow Indoor
Recreation as a Special Use in the I2 District
For Introduction
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
Planning and Development Committee
From: Steve Griffin, Director, Community and Economic Development Department
Dennis Marino, Manager, Planning and Zoning Division
Melissa Klotz, Zoning Planner, Planning and Zoning Division
Subject: Proposed Ordinance 47-O-13 Amending the Zoning Ordinance to allow
Indoor Recreation as a Special Use in the I2 District
Date: April 11, 2013
Recommended Action
The Plan Commission and City staff recommend amending the Zoning Ordinance to allow
indoor recreation facilities as special uses in the I2 District, as well as modification to
remove the term “commercial” from the zoning definition so that non-commercial entities
may establish such use. There are currently two interested parties, one of which is a non-
commercial entity, that hope to establish indoor recreation facilities in I2 Districts.
Summary
The Zoning Ordinance currently regulates commercial indoor recreation facilities as
permitted uses in all C and D Districts as well as the B3 and RP Districts, and as special
uses in the B1a, B2, and M Districts. Commercial indoor recreation is currently defined as:
Commercial Indoor Recreation – Public or private recreation facilities, tennis
ball, racquet or other courts, swimming pools, bowling alleys, skating rinks, or
similar uses that are enclosed in buildings and are operated on a commercial
or membership basis primarily for the use of persons who do not reside on
the same lot as that on which the recreational use is located. “Commercial
indoor recreation” shall include, but not be limited to, health and fitness
establishments or any accessory use, such as snack bars, pro shops, and
locker rooms that are designed and intended primarily for the use of patrons
of the principal recreational use. “Commercial indoor recreation shall not
include cultural facilities, community, and recreation centers, or any use that
is otherwise listed specifically in a zoning district as a permitted or special
use.
Memorandum
412 of 441
There are currently two parties interested in establishing such use in I2 Districts. One
potential user plans to establish a facility in an existing warehouse-style building that is
located on Dempster Street between Dodge and Hartrey Avenues. The facility would be
utilized by the Evanston Soccer Association, which is a non-commercial entity, for practices
and matches. The second interested party plans to construct a “bubble” facility on Oakton
Street on the far west side of the city near Gordon Food Service. The “bubble” facility
would feature multiple indoor sports fields, including soccer, lacrosse, and baseball, which
could be rented out to athletic groups for practices and games/matches. The proposed text
amendment would allow the interested parties to apply for special use permits for the
proposed I2 sites.
With special use approval required, the City would look at such applications on a case by
case basis and determine if each proposed indoor recreation facility fits well with the
surrounding land use. Most I2 properties do not feature prime retail spaces, so the
proposed text amendment would allow indoor recreation facilities to establish in I2 Districts
that currently feature vacant spaces or undeveloped land. The special use process would
also give the City the opportunity to condition each use on issues such as hours of
operation and parking.
Along with the proposed land use change to allow indoor recreation as a special use in the
I2 District, the zoning definition should be amended to remove the term “commercial” and to
clarify the remainder of the definition. The proposed amended definition is:
Indoor Recreation – Public or private, non-governmental recreation facilities,
tennis ball, racquet or other courts, swimming pools, bowling alleys, skating
rinks, or similar uses that are enclosed in buildings primarily for the use of
persons who do not reside on the same lot as that on which the recreational
use is located. “Indoor recreation” shall include, but not be limited to, health
and fitness establishments or any accessory such, such as snack bars that
sell pre-packaged food items, pro shops, and locker rooms that are designed
and intended primarily for the use of patrons of the principal recreational use.
“Indoor recreation” shall not include Cultural Facilities, Community Centers,
and Recreation Centers, or any use that is otherwise listed specifically in a
zoning district as a permitted or special use.
The proposed text amendment clarifies that non-commercial uses such as community
centers are not categorized by the modified definition.
The addition of indoor recreation as a special use in the I2 District fits well with the goals
and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan, which include:
Goal: Retain and enhance a diversity of business, commercial, and industrial
areas as desirable locations of economic activity.
413 of 441
Objective: Promote the growth and redevelopment of business, commercial,
and industrial areas.
Objective: Retain and attract businesses in order to strengthen Evanston’s
economic base.
The proposed changes will allow the two currently interested parties to apply for special
use approval, and may encourage development of other such facilities throughout the I2
District where appropriate through the special use process.

A RESOLUTION
Authorizing the City of Evanston to Establish a Moratorium on the Use
of Unregulated Drone Technology
WHEREAS, the implementation of drone (unmanned aerial system)
technology in the United States implicates the privacy and constitutional rights of United
States residents, including the residents of Evanston, Illinois; and
WHEREAS, the federal government and the State of Illinois have yet to
enact reasonable regulation on the use of drones within the United States; and
WHEREAS, police departments in the United States have begun to deploy
drone technology absent any regulation on the appropriate use of such technology,
although the Evanston Police Department has not.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF
THE CITY OF EVANSTON, COOK COUNTY, ILLINOIS, THAT:
SECTION 1: That the foregoing recitals are hereby found as fact and
incorporated herein by reference.
SECTION 2: The City of Evanston establishes a moratorium on the use of
drones in the City of Evanston in the absence of reasonable state and federal regulation
of the use of drone technology which will expire without further action by the City
Council two years from the date of this resolution; with the following exemptions:
1) for Hobby and Model Aircraft, defined as an unmanned aircraft that is—
a) capable of sustained flight in the atmosphere;
433 of 441

b) flown within visual line of sight of the person operating the aircraft; and
c) flown for hobby or recreational purposes; and
2) the Research and Development of "Experimental Aircraft" for non-Department
of Defense contracts.
SECTION 3: The City of Evanston establishes a moratorium on the use

(1) To counter a high risk of a terrorist attack by a
specific individual or organization if the United States
Secretary of Homeland Security determines that credible
intelligence indicates that there is that risk.
(2) If a law enforcement agency first obtains a search
warrant based on probable cause issued under Section 108-3 of
the Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963. The warrant must be
limited to a period of 45 days, renewable by the judge upon a
showing of good cause for subsequent periods of 45 days.
(3) If a law enforcement agency possesses reasonable
suspicion that, under particular circumstances, swift action
is needed to prevent imminent harm to life or serious damage to
property, or to forestall the imminent escape of a suspect or
the destruction of evidence. The use of a drone under this
paragraph (3) is limited to a period of 48 hours. Within 24
hours of the initiation of the use of a drone under this
paragraph (3), the chief executive officer of the law
enforcement agency must report in writing the use of a drone to
the local State's Attorney.
(4) If a law enforcement agency is attempting to locate a

specific occurrences. The use of a drone under this paragraph
(5) on private property requires either a search warrant based
on probable cause under Section 108-3 of the Code of Criminal
Procedure of 1963 or lawful consent to search. The use of a
drone under this paragraph (5) on lands, highways, roadways, or
areas belonging to this State or political subdivisions of this
State does not require a search warrant or consent to search.
Any law enforcement agency operating a drone under this
paragraph (5) shall make every reasonable attempt to only
photograph the crime scene or traffic crash scene and avoid
other areas.
Section 20. Information retention. If a law enforcement
agency uses a drone under Section 15 of this Act, the agency
within 30 days shall destroy all information gathered by the
drone, except that a supervisor at that agency may retain
particular information if:
(1) there is reasonable suspicion that the information
contains evidence of criminal activity, or
(2) the information is relevant to an ongoing investigation
or pending criminal trial.
Section 25. Information disclosure. If a law enforcement
agency uses a drone under Section 15 of this Act, the agency
shall not disclose any information gathered by the drone,
except that a supervisor of that agency may disclose particular

information to another government agency, if (1) there is
reasonable suspicion that the information contains evidence of
criminal activity, or (2) the information is relevant to an
ongoing investigation or pending criminal trial.
Section 30. Admissibility. Compliance with this Act is a
prerequisite to the admissibility in evidence of any
information collected by a law enforcement agency by means of a
drone, but nothing in this Act shall be deemed to prevent a
court from independently reviewing the admissibility of the
evidence for compliance with the Fourth Amendment to the U.S.
Constitution or with Article I, Section 6 of the Illinois
Constitution.
Section 35. Reporting.
(a) If a law enforcement agency owns one or more drones,
then subsequent to the effective date of this Act, it shall
report in writing annually by April 1 to the Authority the
number of drones that it owns.
(b) On July 1 of each year, the Authority shall publish on
its publicly available website a concise report that lists
every law enforcement agency that owns a drone, and for each of
those agencies, the number of drones that it owns.
