Summary:
On Tuesday, November 29, 2011 and Monday, December 5, 2011 the Evanston City
Council passed ordinances (103-O-11 and 4T-R-11,) which places binding and advisory
referendum questions on the March Primary General election ballot concerning
Community Choice Electricity Aggregation (CCA) and Township Dissolution

and their potential impacts we propose the following steps prior to March 20th:
I. Conduct a full Township Board meeting to review staff recommendations
regarding a plan of action if the Township were to dissolve;
II. Conduct two, one-hour long community meetings (planned at Fleetwood-
Jourdain Center and the Levy Center) to review ballot measures, inform the
public, provide materials, and answer questions (tentatively scheduled in mid-
February and early March);
III. Attend already scheduled Ward meetings or special Ward meetings per the
invitation of individual Council members;
IV. Construct educational web pages on both ballot measures; and
Memorandum

For the record the following correspondence was received in Clerk’s Office on
Monday, November 28, 2011 @ 10:30 a.m
Tom Fischl, 1415 Leonard Place:
Dear Mayor Tisdahl, City Council, and Staff – particularly the
Evanston Legal Department,
My name is Tom Fischl and until the Sheriff shows up to
enforce my eviction, I live at 1415 Leonard Pl. You should be
pleased to know that I have deleted all your e-mail addresses and
this citizen comment will be my final comments to the city. I
know you have heard that before, so you’ll just have to take my
word for it this time.
I have completed my real-life education in Civics,
Journalism, and Political Science as it relates to the city of
Evanston. Now I just have some questions about the legal system
and the role of the City of Evanston Legal Department. Please
excuse my ignorance.
It goes without saying that the Evanston Legal Department is
24
DRAFT November 28, 2011

paid for by Evanston taxpayers. Their salaries, benefits, and
eventual pension all come from the taxpayers so my question is
this – in whose interest does the Evanston Legal Department
represent - the taxpayers or the politicians? When faced with
choosing sides, which side does the Evanston lawyers represent?
There was a time when the Evanston Legal Department was
referred to as a Corporation Council, which implies Evanston is a
Corporation. If that’s the case, then wouldn’t their primary
concern be to the shareholders (taxpayers) who invest in living
in Evanston? One would certainly think so, but the actions of the
Evanston Legal Department over the years don’t reflect it.
When a citizen such as myself make very serious allegations
against the city of Evanston and particular individuals, what
happens? Does the Legal Department investigate the credibility of
the allegations or do they just ignore it? And if the allegations
are false, shouldn’t the Evanston Legal Department file libel and
slander charges to protect the city and certain individuals from
having their reputations smeared on the Internet. If not, why
not?
In the case of former city attorney Elke Tober-Purze who has
alleged corruption relating to kick-backs during the downtown
developments, what happens with her allegations? Does the city
try and reach a settlement with her and if they do reach a
settlement, who pays? The taxpayers? Why should Evanston
Taxpayers be responsible for paying off the alleged corruption of
others?
I have been told that my only recourse to my allegations is
to file a lawsuit against the city of Evanston. As you know from
previous e-mails, I have an attorney willing to represent me. My
reluctance in perusing litigation against the city isn’t because
I don’t believe I have a case. My conflict is if I were to
prevail in the case (which I would anticipate being settled out
of court), wouldn’t it be the taxpayers who would pay for the
settlement and not those being accused? How is that fair?
I find it quite disturbing that the highest paid retired
employee from Evanston is former 1ST Assistant Council Herb Hill
who receives a monthly pension of almost $11,000 (Corporation
Council Mr. Jack Siegel doesn’t show up as receiving a pension
which seems odd). Mr. Hill was instrumental in advising the
Evanston city council to repeatedly violate the Open Meetings Act
of Illinois (even after the city was found guilty) and he gets to
walk away with making $130,000 a year pension while the taxpayers
are left with the unsustainable debt that are a direct result of
his blatant mal-practice. It just doesn’t seem fair or just.
So, for the last time – in whose interest do the Lawyers of
Evanston (paid for by the taxpayers) represent – the politicians,
the unions, or we the people? Please don’t answer with “all of
the above” as that would be intellectually dishonest – in my
opinion.

Page 2 of 9
Administration and Public Works
communities the City needs to show the bigger picture to the residents. Ald.
Holmes, referring to the seized fund items, asked why the sum of $8,937 was
returned. Chief Eddington (Chief of Police) stated that the City was operating
under advice from the Cook County States Attorney. Upon further research, the
City discovered that they could not charge him under the seizure laws. These
offenses are not subject to the seizure law. In that case Chief, Ald. Rainey
asked, who determined that our charge was incorrect. Chief Eddington replied
that a judge made the determination.
It was moved by Ald. Holmes and seconded by Ald. Rainey that the bills list be

Ald. Rainey asked why this purchase could not be funded by the 911 account.
Deputy Chief Jeffery Jamraz replied that this was suggested by the City Manager
but it could be brought before the 911 committee. Ald. Rainey asked if it was not
part of the 911 package and Deputy Chief Jamraz said that it was. These are
also two additional modules. Ald. Rainey thought it a perfect expenditure from
911. M. Lyons suggested proceeding and that the committee would be met with
over this question. Wally Bobkiewicz (City Manager) stated that 911 is over
extended as of this date. They are doing a lot of good things and these modules
are also good things. Ald. Rainey thought that if the City was running out of
money in this area they might consider bonding. W. Bobkiewicz said that they

authorizing the City Manager to execute an easement agreement with
Commonwealth Edison for the installation of an above ground electric
switch box with related underground connections at Fireman’s Park.
Ald. Rainey asked if under normal circumstances the City received easement
monies. Dave Stoneback (Director of Utilities) said the City is reimbursed with
free electricity for existing areas. Ald. Holmes said that she had toured the area
this past summer and the above ground box will help to eliminate outages. Ald.
Rainey said the normal course of easement is their right and free electricity is the
payment. Others pay us for easements. D. Stoneback said that is his
understanding. Those companies such as NICOR and ComEd that the City has
a franchise agreement with pay us in free electricity or gas. Ald. Grover noted the

Ald. Rainey wished for this item to be held until the second meeting in January
2012. She asked that staff investigate the use of transferred surplus dollars before
a TIF is closed. Could these dollars be used to cover the cost of school crossing
guards. Ald. Holmes noted that the Board of Review is meeting this week and
suggested that this could be a question for them. Ald. Rainey said that this is
significant dollars and it would be well spent on the crossing guard program.
As requested item A9 was held in committee.
(A10) Ordinance 104-O-11 Authorizing the Sale of Surplus Fleet Vehicles
Staff recommends City Council adoption of Ordinance 104-O-11 authorizing
the City Manager to sell various vehicles and equipment owned by the City
through public auction.
It was moved by Ald. Rainey and seconded by Ald. Grover that A10 be approved.
A voice vote was taken and A10 was unanimously approved.
(A11) Ordinance 113-O-11 Amending Portions of Title 10, Chapter 11, “Traffic
Schedules,” Relating to Speed Limits on Oakton Street
The 9th ward Alderman has requested the proposed ordinance 113-O-11 by
which the City Council would amend Section 10-11-2, Schedule 2 to
establish a 20 mph speed limit on Oakton Street between Dodge Avenue
and Ridge Avenue.
Ald. Burrus referred the Committee to a Truck Study that’s first page showed the
traffic on Oakton at Barton. Suzette Robinson (Director of Public Works) went
over the statistics. Four different locations were observed at different times of
the day. Since adopting the truck ordinance with the maximum allowable weight
of 8000 pounds in May, the truck traffic is now down by one-half. Ald. Rainey
asked if a UPS truck was below or over 8000 pounds. S. Robinson said that only
the larger trucks exceed that weight. Ald. Rainey asked if the average was under
8000 pounds. Ald. Grover stated the ordinance allows a specific destination of a
truck to be allowable over 8000 pounds. Ald. Rainey asked how many trucks on
Oakton on a weekly basis are legal. A. Robinson replied that it is safe to say all
are. For example, the trailer trucks going to Evanston Lumber would be legal.
Ald. Burrus noted that the committee had never discussed the turning spots as
being part of the ordinance. She asked that that point be reviewed and the
committee be gotten back to. Chief Eddington said that there are some trucks
that can be in violation due to their extra weight. Some trucks are legal on one
day and illegal the next, depending on the delivery location. It does depend on
52

Administration and Public Works
where they are making a delivery. The Evanston Police Department issued 25
citations between November 16 and 21 and 24 warnings. As to studying the
situation, sometimes a camera is used to record movement.
Resident Cheryl Muno, 1729 Oakton Street, spoke on behalf of others in the
chamber. In May of this year, Chicago got a new traffic czar. In October the
papers talked about Skokie. Again, in October, Chicago wanted to add cameras.
These are three examples of cities already in the mode of traffic control. We
residents were told that an all day limit would be passed and a speed time
machine would be in place. By October, nothing had been accomplished. Only
one 30MPH sign had been changed to 20MPH. I have brought a signed petition
from those of us who live on Oakton and are qualified to say what is needed. I
have also talked with residents on side streets and the first five I spoke with
signed the petition. There are numerous accidents including cars on two
separate occasions running up on my lawn. Our car was totaled and a tree was
damaged. A twenty-four hour speed limit needs to be implemented. The area is
used by students in the evening and on the weekends. There are no traffic
guards during those hours or in the summer when school is closed. A child can
survive a 20MPH accident but is less likely to survive a 40MPH accident.
Evanston should strive to be pedestrian friendly in places other than downtown.
There is also the continued paving problem and the vibrations of the trucks that
cause damage to our homes. We have been told that it will be several years
before the street is repaved and yet it will only be worse and harder to resurface.
Ald. Grover noted that not all challenges are on Oakton. There are many factors
from road rage to cell phone distractions, to speeding etc. everywhere in the City.
There is a special study being conducted around the high school. The Police
Department and ETHS Safety Department will analyze distracted driving in a
school zone. I agree, I do not know how to control drivers. Traffic Department
engineers are trying to find traffic calming devices. They are looking into alternate
routes to use before using Oakton. I would like to see data on speeding and
accidents etc. before we change the speed limits. The data will tell a story worth
looking at. Ald. Holmes relayed that a few weeks ago she pulled over to take a
call from Ald. Grover in a 20MPH zone on Church and drivers kept flying by her.
Ald. Grover thought Aldermen should be deputized. Ald. Holmes said that she
has seen this in other places that are posted. People do not respect the signs.
Of course, not all work here or live here. It is very difficult in school areas. We
understand it she said, and we see it, I am not sure 20MPH will help. Ald.
Rainey related that when the City first began the effort of traffic calming, there
was a lot of traffic enforcement. We did studies. The violators were citizens. I
believe Ms. Muno touched on that the school standards are out of date. Schools
now have longer days and weekend activities. As to truck traffic, there are too
many trucks making too many trips going too fast. The studies show that few
trucks are illegal. Some trucks need to get through to residents. This ordinance
to limit MPH will not help. Ald. Burrus said that she has been working on this for
two years. She has brought it up before at A & P W. Big trucks need to be taken
off and speeds lowered. Public Works has done something but they need to do
more. And, it needs to happen very quickly. When I drive down Oakton she
continued her car rattles due to the condition of the road. But, financially we
cannot repave Oakton, Dodge to Ridge, for the cost is estimated at 1.8 million. I
am asking for some relief for Oakton she said. Not money from other wards but
53

Administration and Public Works
a vote to reduce the speed limits. That will reduce the rattling of cars and
vibration of the homes. If it is on the books, the Police need to be out there to
enforce it. Trucks that speed need to be ticketed and talked with. Ald. Rainey
said she would like to give something from her Ward. Howard Hartrey TIF has a
surplus of funds. Let’s give some to the area with two school districts. We can
give them the money needed to pave Oakton and cover the cost of the Crossing
Guards. There is a commitment to redo the street in five years but to wait will
make it a more severe and costly project. Ald. Braithwaite asked Ms. Robinson
when the street is scheduled to be repaired. S. Robinson said Public Works has
contractors coming in to create a five year plan. Chief, Ald. Braithwaite asked,
do you have stats on accidents. Chief Eddington noted that Oakton is on the list
of the top ten intersection for accidents. He also said that studies show that 85%
of people will respect signs, the other 15% will not and they will get tickets. More
signs he thought will probably not improve the percentages. He said he
advocates waiting for Engineering to offer a solution. Police cannot be there all
the time. Rigorous enforcement will not be any better. The Judges in Skokie will
see it as a revenue program not a safety issue. Ald. Holmes asked if the part of
the sign that says “when children present” can be removed. A. Robinson said
the signs are covered by State law. However, she stated, “when children
present” literally means whenever children are present. Ald. Grover asked if
State funds for the Safe Routes to School have been received and S. Robinson
said the awards have not been announced. Ald. Grover said that she would like
to see the statistics on tickets issued and accidents. Ald. Rainey noted that the
City of Evanston makes no money in the Skokie Courts. She reminded all that
Oakton and Asbury was the number one location of accidents until a no-turn on
red was put in place. What is this locations place on the list now she asked. Ald.
Burrus asked S. Robinson about the bullet points she had proposed. She
wondered if an exact date for each could be obtained. S. Robinson replied that it
would be done. Signs we do so it is easy. Speed bumps are based on State
funds being received so any date would be a guess. Ald. Burrus said then let me
know what funds are currently available. Ald. Grover asked that this item be held
in committee for the receipt of more information.
As requested, item A11 was held in committee.
(A12) Ordinance 114-O-11 Amending Title 10, Motor Vehicles and Traffic, Chapter
11, Traffic Schedules, Section 12: Schedule XII; Parking Meter Zones

zones including 20 minute, 30 minute, 2 hour, 3 hour, 4 hour, 12 hour and
15 hour zones. It is recommended that the amendment take effect on

Page 8 of 9
Administration and Public Works
Staff recommends approval of Ordinance 115-O-11 amending Title 10,
Motor Vehicles and Traffic, Chapter 11, Traffic Schedules, Section 17:
Schedule XVII; Parking Violation Fines. It is recommended that the changes
in the initial fines take effect on April 1, 2012.
Ald. Rainey pointed out that this ordinance will not impact the $10.00 expired
meter fine or late penalty fee.
It was moved by Ald. Grover and seconded by Ald. Holmes that A13 be
approved. A voice vote was taken and A13 was unanimously approved.
(A14) Ordinance 117-O-11 Amending Various Sections of Chapter 11 of Title 9 of
the Evanston City Code Regulating False Alarm Systems
Staff recommends City Council approval of Ordinance 117-O-11, which
would increase City of Evanston Police and Fire-related false alarm fees.
This increase was included as a revenue enhancement item for the FY 2012
Budget and will take effect January 1, 2012.
Ald. Rainey asked how it could be in effect January 1, 2012 if we do not suspend
the rules for action tonight. G. Farrar said the City is not asking for a suspension
of rules as Legal will be making a text change to an effective date of February 1,
2012.
It was moved by Ald. Rainey and seconded by Ald. Braithwaite that A14 be
approved. A voice vote was taken and A14 was unanimously approved.
(A15.1)Approval to Reimburse the Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD) for Fair Market Value of Property Located at 1817
Church Street
Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager to
reimburse HUD $220,000 from the West Evanston TIF for the Community
Development Block Grant (CDBG) investment in 1817 Church Street per
HUD regulations.
Ald. Holmes said that she has questions for staff. She thinks it is a great program
but she needs her questions answered first. Ald. Rainey agreed to more
discussions. She also asked staff to tell the committee how they are going to
maintain the property. Ald. Burrus asked for a figure of how much it will cost to
maintain the property. John Leineweber – 830 Madison Street – one of ten
present from the Evanston Northshore Contractors group said they will continue
to be organized and ready to participate but they did not need to speak this
evening. Ald. Rainey wondered if answers could be obtained this evening to
which Ald. Holmes said it could not happen, she had only this day sent questions
to staff.
Ald. Holmes moved to table until a January meeting. Ald. Grover seconded. A
voice vote was taken and A15.1 and 15.2 were held in committee.
(A15.2)Resolution 64-R-11 Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a TIF
Construction Loan Agreement for the Renovation of 1817 Church Street
Staff requests adoption of Resolution 64-R-11, which authorizes the City
Manager to lend $200,000 from the West Evanston Tax Increment Finance
District fund to the Evanston North Shore Contractors Cooperative for the

Memorandum

Summary:
Originally, the City of Evanston selected the Andover (Schneider) BAS as the
successful low bidder in a competitive bidding process. Schneider supports open
protocol so that its software and equipment can work with all types of HVAC equipment
like the equipment types the City of Evanston currently has in service. This flexibility
eliminates the need for additional software and equipment interfaces. Schneider is
generally backwards compatible so that its software and equipment will continue to work
with much of the older equipment that the City has in service.
The City selected ITG Solutions Inc. as a sole source provider of technical service to the
Andover BAS since they were and continue to be the only company in the Chicago area
with factory certified technicians trained to work on the Andover equipment and
software.
ITG installed the Andover BAS systems in the named city buildings and has maintained
them since their installation. ITG is the primary distributor for Andover Controls in the
Chicago area and as such is the most qualified firm to perform this work. The software
staff at ITG has extensive knowledge of the Andover control system and has maintained
the BAS of the City’s facilities satisfactorily since its installation. Switching to another
vendor would require switching equipment, software and computer programs. Due to
the overall success of the past installations, the City is attempting to standardize on this
Andover system as the most reliable and versatile system available.
The BAS system allows Facilities Management staff to view operation of the HVAC
systems at each location from a workstation in the Facilities Management office. It also
allows staff to adjust the HVAC systems as requested by the building manager or to
resolve problems remotely without actually visiting the facility. These systems save
time, energy and increase the efficiency of the equipment.

For City Council meeting of January 9, 2012 Item A3.2
Business of the City by Motion: Amendment for Natural Gas Purchase
For Action
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
Administration and Public Works Committee
From: David Stoneback, Director of Utilities
Subject: Approval of Amendment 3 to the Agreement with
Twin Eagle Resources Management, LLC for the
Purchase of Natural Gas for 16 City Owned Buildings
Date: December 15, 2011
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager to negotiate and
execute Amendment 3 to the Agreement with Twin Eagle Resource Management, LLC
(5120 Woodway, Suite 10010, Houston, TX 77056) for the purchase of natural gas for
16 City owned buildings. The amended term of the agreement shall be effective
September 1, 2013 through August 31, 2014.
Funding Source:
The cost for natural gas is billed to the various accounts that support the buildings that
are purchasing natural gas through this contract. Please see attached Exhibit 1 that
lists the buildings being served by this agreement and the accounts that are being
charged.
Background:
On April 12, 2011 the City Council took the following action:
1) Authorized the City Manager to negotiate and execute an agreement with Twin
Eagle Resource Management for the procurement of natural gas for 16 City
owned facilities commencing May 1, 2011 through October 31, 2011 for a
purchase price set equal to the first of the month Index via Chicago Citygate as
published by Natural Gas Institute’s (NGI) Bidweek Survey, plus an
administrative fee of $0.0040 per therm.
2) Authorized the City Manager to negotiate and execute an amendment to the
agreement with Twin Eagle Resource Management for the procurement of
natural gas for 16 City owned facilities commencing November 1, 2011 through
Memorandum
112
August 31, 2012 when the strike price is in the range of $0.475 to $0.490 per
therm.
3) Authorized the City Manager to negotiate and execute an amendment to the
agreement with Twin Eagle Resource Management for the procurement of
natural gas for 16 City owned facilities commencing September 1, 2012 through
August 31, 2013 when the strike price is in the range of $0.45 to $0.47 per
therm.
4) Authorized the City Manager to negotiate and execute the Agency Agreement
between the City of Evanston and Northwestern University to manage the City’s
natural gas purchase for 16 City owned facilities.
The Agreement with Twin Eagle and the Agency Agreement with Northwestern
University were executed on April 27, 2011. Amendments 1 & 2 were executed on June
16, 2011. As indicated in a Memorandum dated June 17, 2011, advising the City
Council that the amendments had been executed, future gas pricing was increasing and
the Twin Eagle representative recommended to both Northwestern and the City to lock
into prices above the original proposed strike prices. Exhibit 2 attached indicates the
conditions of the agreements for the purchase of natural gas since November 2009
through the current agreement term expiration in August 2013.
Cost Analysis:
As a result of the low gas prices, the City has been able to realize substantial savings.
As indicated in Exhibit 3, the City purchased 777,236 therms for a cost of $348,021.95
during the twelve months between November 2010 and October 2011. The average
cost per therm during this time period was $0.4478. In comparison, between November
2009 and October 2010, the City was locked into a fixed price per therm of $0.62. Had
the same quantity of natural gas been purchased (777,236 therms) the cost would have
been $481,886.53. This represents an approximate 38.5% reduction in the purchase
cost for natural gas.
Analysis:
The downward futures price trend for natural gas continues and is expected to continue
into late January / early February 2012 as long as the weather pattern holds. Based on
this information Northwestern intends to lock into a fixed price for natural gas to be
supplied between September 1, 2013 and August 31, 2014 when a strike price between
$0.0455 and $0.0475 is obtained. Similar to the current agreement, the City would lock
in a fixed price within this range for seventy percent (70%) of its anticipated monthly gas
use. The remaining monthly gas supply requirement would be purchased at the first of
the month index via Chicago Citygate as published by NGI’s Bidweek Survey, plus an
administrative fee of $0.0040 per therm. If the index price is too high, withdrawal of
previously purchased natural gas from storage would occur.
Recommendation Summary:
Authorize the City Manager to negotiate and execute Amendment 3 to the Agreement
with Twin Eagle Resource Management for the procurement of natural gas for 16 City
owned facilities commencing September 1, 2013 through August 31, 2014 when the
113
strike price is in the range of $0.0455 and $0.0475. This price range is anticipated to
occur in January or February 2012.
Legislative History:
The City Council authorized the City Manager to execute an agreement and
Amendments 1 & 2 with Twin Eagle Resource Management, LLC and an Agency
Agreement with Northwestern University on April 12, 2011.

To: Honorable Mayor Tisdahl and Members of the City Council
Administration and Public Works Committee
From: Marty Lyons, Assistant City Manager/Treasurer
Subject: Budget Policy Amendment and Debt Management Policy
Date: January 5, 2012
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends approval of resolution 1-R-12 amending the City’s Budget Policy.
The proposed resolution would increase the City’s tax-supported general obligation
(GO) debt limit from $90,000,000 to $120,000,000. The tax-supported debt to
Equalized Assessed Value (EAV) ratio in 2004-05 was 5.21%, compared to the
proposed new debt limit ratio of 3.63% using the 2010-11 EAV.
Funding Source:
N/A
Summary:
Staff proposes amending the City’s existing Budget Policy. Specifically, the proposed
amendment modifies the City’s debt service limit. Per the proposed amendment, the
City’s tax-supported general obligation (GO) debt limit would increase from $90,000,000
to $120,000,000.
The current debt policy is shown on page 41, Section I of the 2011 budget and is
shown below:
“…..Self-Supporting General Obligation Debt shall not be limited by this Budget Policy.
Tax-Supported General Obligation Debt shall not exceed $90,000,000 in aggregate
principal amount, which limit is expressly subject to increase from time to time by action
of the City Council as the needs of the City may grow. General Obligation Debt issued
as so-called zero coupon bonds or capital appreciation bonds shall be counted as debt
in the original principal amount issued. The Finance Director shall at all times keep a
Memorandum
For City Council Meeting of January 9, 2012 Item A4
Resolution 1-R-12: Amended Budget Policy
For Introduction
118
book or record of all General Obligation Debt and its proper allocation. The Finance
Director’s statements as to the allocation of General Obligation Debt into these two
categories shall be conclusive….”
As noted above, the debt policy covers property tax supported debt, and does not cover
General Obligation debt, Revenue Bonds or IEPA loans that are paid from other
sources. Staff provided a debt service comparison presentation to the City Council on
September 20, 2010 as part of the FY2011 budget preview. An updated debt service
comparison was then provided during the January 10, 2011 City Council Meeting as
part of the FY2011 Capital Improvement Program presentation.
Not all communities have a Debt Policy and those that do have such a policy do not
necessarily break out their property tax supported debt from all other types of debt. All
communities are required to show their debt by type in the Notes section of their
Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR). The comparisons provided in the
2010-11 Council updates used this data. The City continues to monitor our total debt
load and has reduced the amount of property tax supported debt issued each year to
fund capital infrastructure improvements.
The new limit for debt as defined in the policy includes the issuance of General
Obligation debt in support of the Sewer Fund. This issuance of $17 million in property
tax-supported debt accounts for a majority of the increase in our debt limit included in
the Policy. The table below shows our recent and projected G.O. debt covered under
the policy:
Year

PROPERTY TAX SUPPORTED DEBT SUMMAR Y
As can be seen by the table above, we do not project that the City will go over the new
proposed limit based on a smaller Capital Improvements Program and the continued
retirement of previously issued debt.
In reviewing the proposed resolution, staff felt it would be appropriate to recap the
previously provided comparison of the debt carried by the City of Evanston in
relationship to other comparable Illinois communities.
The following communities were designated as comparable to the City of Evanston
based on population and/or the presence of a water facility. The municipalities which
119
operate parks and library functions internally and do not have separate library or park
districts have also been identified. Further, the figures used in the following tables were
taken from the 2010 Comprehensive Annual Financial Reports unless otherwise noted.
The following table provides the population for each community and notes the
communities which operate a water facility.

A RESOLUTION
Amending the City of Evanston Budget Policy
WHEREAS, the City of Evanston, Cook County, Illinois (the “City”) has
adopted a Budget Policy (the “Budget Policy”) pursuant to the proceedings of December
18, 2000; and
WHEREAS, paragraph J of the Budget Policy, relating to the Debt Service
Fund, must be amended to accommodate current needs of the City and the
recommendations of the City’s bond counsel,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF
THE CITY OF EVANSTON, COOK COUNTY, ILLINOIS, THAT:
SECTION 1: Paragraph J of the Budget Policy is hereby amended to read
as follows:
J. Debt Service Fund. General Obligation Debt of the City means debt
(viz., bonds) for which an unlimited real property tax levy is made or
pledged for payment. General Obligation Debt shall be allocated into two
categories. Self-Supporting General Obligation Debt shall mean General
Obligation Debt which, at the time of issuance, is expected and intended
by the Finance Director Treasurer to be payable out of a source other than
the City’s general real property tax levy, thus permitting the abatement
and avoidance of the property tax levy to pay such bonds; examples of
Self-Supporting General Obligation Debt include (without limitation) bonds
payable from the Water Fund or the Sewer Fund, bonds payable from the
Water Fund or the Sewer Fund, bonds payable from special assessments,
bonds payable from tax increment financing areas, and bonds payable
from Motor Fuel Taxes. Tax-Supported General Obligation Debt shall
mean all other General Obligation Debt, which is expected and intended to
be paid from a general real property tax levy. General Obligation Debt
shall not include any obligation of the City not denominated a bond,
including, without limitation, short term notes or warrants or other
obligations which the City may issue from time to time for various
purposes and to come due within three (3) years of issuance. General
124
XX-R-11
~2~
Obligation Debt does not included bonds which have been refunded or
defeased and which, as a consequence of same, are provided for from a
dedicated source of funds or investments. Self-Supporting General
Obligation Debt shall not be limited by this Budget Policy. Tax-Supported
General Obligation Debt shall not exceed $90,000,000 $120,000,000 in
aggregate principal amount, which limit is expressly subject to increase
from time to time by action of the City Council as the needs of the City
may grow. General Obligation Debt issued as so-called zero coupon
bonds or capital appreciation bonds shall be counted as debt in the
original principal amount issued. The Finance Director Treasurer shall at
all times keep a book or record of all General Obligation Debt and its
proper allocation. The Finance Director Treasurer’s statements as to the
allocation of General Obligation Debt into these two categories shall be
conclusive. Notwithstanding this statement of policy, all bonds or other
obligations by whatever name designated of the City duly authorized to be
issued by the City Council shall be valid and legally binding as against the
City, and there shall be no defense of the City as against any bondholder
or other obligation holder on the basis of this policy.
SECTION 2: This resolution shall be effective immediately, and the
Budget Policy shall be accordingly restated.
SECTION 3: This resolution may only be amended by subsequent
resolution or ordinance as adopted by the City Council.
SECTION 4: All motions, resolutions and orders, or parts thereof, in
conflict herewith, are, to the extent of such conflict, hereby repealed.

For City Council meeting of January 9, 2012 Item A5
Ordinance 113-O-11: Amending Title 10, Relating to Speed Limits on Oakton Street
For Introduction
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
Members of the Administration and Public Works Committee
From: Suzette Robinson, Director of Public Works
Richard Eddington, Chief of Police
Paul Schneider, City Engineer
Rajeev Dahal, Senior Traffic Engineer
Subject: Ordinance 113-O-11, Establishing a 20 MPH Speed Limit on Oakton
Street
Dodge Avenue to Ridge Avenue
Date: December 1, 2011
Recommended Action:
The 9th ward Alderman has requested the proposed Ordinance 113-O-11 by which the
City Council would amend Section 10-11-2, Schedule 2 to establish a 20 mph speed
limit on Oakton Street between Dodge Avenue and Ridge Avenue. This Ordinance was
held in Committee on December 12, 2011.
Funding Source:
The purchase of ten speed limit signs in the amount of $400 to be funded from the
streets traffic control supplies account 2670-65115 which has $40,000 budgeted for FY
2012.
Summary:
The speed limit on Oakton Street from the western City limit to Callan Avenue is
currently 30 mph except along posted school zones. Three schools; Dawes, Chute, and
Oakton are located in this stretch of Oakton Street. The speed limit was originally
posted as “School Speed Limit 20 MPH On School Days When Children are Present”
within one block of each school. The City Council in its September 12, 2011 meeting
approved extending this 20MPH school zone to cover the entire stretch from Dodge
Avenue to Ridge Avenue. The 9th ward Alderman would like the City Council to approve
Ordinance 113-O-11 which would establish a permanent 20MPH speed limit between
Dodge Avenue and Ridge Avenue.
Memorandum
126
Both the Public Works and Police Department are committed to ensuring pedestrian
safety and the appropriate flow of vehicular transit throughout the City. Achieving the
“right” balance between these two goals can be challenging. As a result we propose the
following alternatives to permanently changing the speed limit.
• Installing lighted speed display monitors at least six times per year that will
visually alert drivers when they are exceeding the speed limit.
• Expanding the duties of the soon to be assigned 9th Ward problem solving officer
to include monitoring speeders and violators of the truck limits.
• Establishing target enforcement zones several times per year.
• Ensuring the resurfacing of Oakton is included in the new five year resurfacing
plan.
We are recommending that City Council consider implementing the above measures
allowing time for Public Works to conduct additional traffic studies to determine if the
measures are working. These traffic studies will also provide key data needed for
engineering justification for the reduction of the speed limit along a major thoroughfare.
Actions Public Works staff have previously taken on Oakton:
• Established City-wide 8000 lb ordinance which includes Oakton east of Dodge.
• Installed the City-wide 8000 lb weight limit restriction signs at major entrances to
the City.
• Purchase order for radar speed display expected delivery in mid January 2012.
• Removed the 30 mph speed signs in between the School Speed Limit 20 mph
zone to extend the school speed limit zone from Dodge to Ridge.
• Minor area surface removal and replacement east of Barton.
• Submitted application to IDOT for funding to construct sidewalk bump-out in front
of Chute School at Wesley as part of the Safe Routes to School program.
• Installed State Law Stop of Pedestrians in Crosswalk signs at Grey, Wesley and
Barton.
• Installed Truck Route signs directing trucks to use Dodge with End Truck Route
sign east of Dodge.
• Installed sidewalk bump-outs at Grey with high visibility crosswalk markings.
• Constructed sidewalk on the south side of Oakton west of Dodge.
• Constructed a short right turn lane on eastbound Oakton at Dodge to improve the
flow of traffic.
• Installed pedestrian crossing signals at the Home Depot traffic signal.
• Resurfaced Oakton from the Home Depot driveway intersection to Dodge.
• Minor area surface removal and replacement between Asbury and Dodge.

Ordinance 2-O-12: Authorizing Sale of Police Department K9 Program Dog
For Introduction and Action
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
Administration and Public Works Committee
From: Richard Eddington, Chief of Police
Subject: Ordinance 2-0-12, Authorizing the Sale of Evanston Police Department K9
Program Dog
Date: December 28, 2011
Recommended Action:
Adoption of Ordinance 2-O-12 to authorize the sale and transfer of a K-9 Program dog
with the Evanston Police Department to Officer Schienbein. Chief Eddington
recommends that the ordinance be introduced and adopted on January 9, 2012 due to
the nature of the transaction.
Funding Source:
n/a
Summary:
Please find attached an ordinance and sale agreement effecting the retirement of K-9
Jack from EPD and City of Evanston service. As we have discussed over the past
several months, Jack’s health has deteriorated to the point where he no longer is able to
function as a working dog. Officer Ted Schienbein, Jack’s handler, wishes to acquire
Jack as his pet and care for him. The attached paperwork will accomplish that by
transferring property ownership of Jack from the City of Evanston to Officer Schienbein
for $1.00. The City Code, 1-17-3(B), requires an ordinance to be passed for the
disposition of this type of “property.”

For Introduction
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
Members of the Administration and Public Works Committee
From: Suzette Robinson, Director of Public Works
Paul Schneider, City Engineer
Rajeev Dahal, Senior Traffic Engineer
Subject: Moving Van Parking Operations and Storage Containers on Public Ways
Date: December 21, 2011
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends adoption of proposed Ordinance 3-O-12 by which the City Council
would amend section 7-2-6, “Occupation of Public Ways for Business Purposes” to
“Occupation of Public Ways for Special Purposes.” Section 7-2-6 would be further
amended by adding Subsection (G) Moving Vehicle Parking and Storage Containers on
Public Ways, which establishes the process to reserve parking space in the right of way
to load and unload moving vans and containers. This ordinance will go into effect April
1, 2012.
Funding Source:
Not Applicable
Summary:
The purpose of this subsection is to permit the restriction of parking in the right of way,
thereby reserving space for the loading and unloading of moving vans and containers
without obstructing traffic flow. The parking space reservation can only be made in
public spaces that currently allow regular parking and will be designated by the use of a
no parking sign. Upon the completion of the move, the no parking signs will be
removed. Customers wishing to reserve parking spaces in the public way in front of the
property that they are moving into or out of shall complete an application form provided
by the Director of Public Works and submit it no less than ten (10) business days prior
to the move. The applicant must specify the address and location, date of the move,
length of the moving vehicle, and contact information. The no parking signs, supplied
by the City, will require installation at least 48 hours prior to the date of the intended
move. Permits shall be valid only for the move-in or move-out dates specified in the
application. The fee will be one hundred dollars ($100) per parking reservation location.
Memorandum
137
The adoption of this ordinance is expected to generate approximately $50,000 in
additional revenue for Fiscal Year 2012.

Ordinance 4-O-12: Requiring Use of Automobile Safety Belts
For Introduction
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
Members of the Administration and Public Works Committee
From: W. Grant Farrar, Corporation Counsel
Subject: Ordinance 4-O-12, Amending 10-12-2 to Adopt Illinois Vehicle Code
Provision Requiring Vehicle Drivers and Passengers to Use Safety Belts
Date: December 15, 2011
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends adoption of Ordinance 4-O-12 amending Evanston City Code 10-12-
2 making it a municipal violation for drivers and passengers to not use safety belts.
Funding Source:
n/a
Summary:
Ordinance 4-O-12 amends Evanston City Code (“Code”) 10-12-2 by making it unlawful
for any person to violate 625 ILCS 5/12-603.1 of the Illinois Vehicle Code. Pursuant to
625 ILCS 5/12-603.1, drivers and passengers in vehicles are required to use seat safety
belts, subject to limited exceptions. While 625 ILCS 5/12-603 is part of the Code, that
provision prohibits sale and operation of vehicles not equipped with safety belts, but
does not itself require the use of safety belts.
Police officers have issued ordinance tickets under 10-12-2(5/12-603) to drivers for
failure to wear a safety belt, but those tickets are dismissible at Administrative
Adjudication because 5/12-603 does not require drivers and passengers to use safety
belts. By adopting Ordinance 4-O-12, and thereby codifying 5/12-603.1 as part of the
Code, drivers and passengers who fail to wear safety belts will violate Code §10-12-2,
and ordinance tickets issued under 10-12-2(5/12-603.1) for failure to use a safety belt
will not be subject to automatic dismissal at Administrative Adjudication.

Ordinance 8-O-12: Adopting the Evanston City Code 2012
For Introduction
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
Administration and Public Works Committee
From: W. Grant Farrar, Corporation Counsel
Subject: Ordinance 8-O-12, Adopting the Evanston City Code, 2012
Date: January 3, 2012
Recommended Action:
Staff submits for review and consideration Ordinance 8-O-12, adopting the Evanston
City Code, 2012. The City Council provisionally approved the amendments contained
therein pursuant to Ordinances 47-O-11, 48-O-11, 49-O-11, and 50-O-11, adopted,
respectively, on June 13, July 11, September 12, and September 26, 2011.
Funding Source:
N/A
Summary:
The current City Code was last codified in 1979, and in our work on this project we
learned that the 1979 codification was primarily technical in nature. Thus, the Code has
been amended and revised on a piecemeal basis for decades, going all the way back to
1957.
To that end, the Law Department worked with all City departments to perform a detailed
evaluation and review. While the proposed revisions are broad and comprehensive,
certain sections of the Code, such as Title 6, Zoning, and Title 3, Chapter 5, Liquor
Licensing, fall outside of the parameters of the proposed revisions, as those revisions
will be heavily substantive or require separate hearings. By performing this review in
house rather than outsourcing to our codifier, Municode, the City has saved over
$8,000. Upon approval, Municode will incorporate ordinance changes adopted over the
course of 2011, check and update internal cross references and citations to state and
federal law, codify, and ultimately publish the Evanston City Code, 2012.
Modernizing the Code included removing gender bias by using both masculine and
feminine pronouns. Repetitious and sometimes contradictory language was simplified
by re-wording and eliminating select provisions. Other stylistic and wording changes
were made to clarify text. Many amendments reflect changes in the names of
departments and position titles. Re-numbering certain Chapters and Sections became
necessary where we removed references to deleted/repealed Code provisions.
Memorandum

Substantive changes were incorporated at the request of the operational departments
responsible for enforcing the affected Code provisions.

Ordinance 9-O-12: Amending Liquor License Classes H, N, & O Regarding Selling
of Single Containers of Beer
For Introduction
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
Administration and Public Works Committee
From: W. Grant Farrar, Corporation Counsel
Wendy McCambridge, Administrative Adjudication Manager
Subject: Approval of Ordinance 9-O-12, Amending Liquor License Classes H, N &
O, Clarifying the Prohibition on Selling Single Containers of Beer Less
than 40 Ounces in Volume
Date: December 27, 2011
Recommended Action:
Local Liquor Commissioner recommends City Council adoption of Ordinance 9-O-12.
Summary:
Class H, N and O liquor licensees are prohibited from selling single containers of beer
“unless the volume of the container is greater than forty (40) ounces or 1.18 liters.”
Ordinance 9-O-12 amends liquor license Classes H, N and O to further clarify that it is
unlawful for licensees to package or configure single containers of beer so as to avoid
the ban. Specifically, licensees may not bundle, tape, package together, or otherwise
manipulate single containers of beer.
At the November 28, 2011 Liquor Control Review Board (“Board”) meeting, a
representative from Class O licensee Whole Foods Market sought clarification of the
restriction on sales of single containers of beer. Specifically, the representative inquired
whether the restriction permits licensees to sell single containers of beer, with individual
volumes less than 40 ounces, repackaged into sets of containers with total volume
exceeding 40 ounces. The Board determined that it is the intent of the single container
restriction to prevent sales of alcohol outside the packaging provided by the producer,
aside for specific exceptions for wine and liquor. The Board instructed Corporation
Counsel to draft amendments to match the intent of the restriction. Accordingly,
Ordinance 9-O-12 clarifies that Class H, N and O licensees are prohibited from
repackaging or reconfiguring single containers of beer for sale as a set.

Call to Order
The Local Liquor Control Commissioner Tisdahl called the meeting to order at 2:04 p.m.
All attendees introduced themselves and his/her role as it related to the meeting.
NEW BUSINESS
Liquor Class “S: Definition
Alderman Rainey was present to support the business plan of a potential applicant for a
liquor license for a wine and cocktail bar/retail outlet to be located on Howard Street in
Evanston. The prospective owner, Anne Carlson, was present to discuss her business
plan to open a restaurant serving small plates and cheese in conjunction with a small
retail space to sell wine, beer and liquor. The focus of the business will be onsite
consumption of alcohol with a small retail inventory. The alcohol offerings featured for
onsite consumption and retail will be small craft products that are often difficult to find
and have a small distribution.
Local Liquor Control Commissioner asked Mr. Farrar if the business model closely
matches any existing ordinances already established for the City of Evanston. Mr.
Farrar stated that with some minor changes, the Class “S” license could be modified to
suit the purposes and needs for this business venture. Per Ms. Carlson, the major
modification being requested is to allow for the sale of alcoholic liquor in addition to the
already approved wine and beer.
The Local Liquor Control Commissioner asked the members if there were any concerns
over Ms. Carlson’s request. No concerns were voiced. The board recommends an
amendment to the City Ordinance 3-5-6 be made to the Class “S” license and
introduced to City Council to reflect the business plans presented by Ms. Carlson.
Clarification of sales permitted by Class O liquor license

FINAL
Page 2 of 2
Liquor Control Board
Mr. Farrar introduced the topic regarding the sale of single containers by Class O liquor
license holders. Mr. Farrar requested the Whole Foods representative begin the
discussion with his concerns for the board. Clarification was being sought regarding the
ability to sell at retail the re-packaging of single bottles with a volume of less than 40
fluid ounces each as a set totaling a volume of at least 40 fluid ounces. After much
discussion the board clarified that no sale can be made of alcohol outside the original
packaging by the liquor producer aside from the allowances made in the ordinance
regarding the sale for wine or liquor in individual bottles of specific volumes. Mr. Farrar
will create amendments as needed to clarify the wording of the ordinance to match the
intent of the law by the Evanston Local Liquor Control Board.
College Town Summit 2011
Summary by Ms. McCambridge of the topics covered at the College Town Summit
2011. Topics presented that the liquor board would like to investigate further include:
keg registration ordinance and “host” ordinance. Other topics were presented, however,
either did not apply to the powers of the liquor board or the board was not interested in
pursuing. Ms. McCambridge was asked by the board to present additional information
regarding adopting a keg registration program and examples of ordinances adopted by
other municipalities regarding enforcement and penalties for hosting an underage
drinking event at the next liquor control board meeting (date to be determined).
ADJOURNMENT
The meeting was adjourned by the Local Liquor Control Commissioner Elizabeth
Tisdahl/Mayor at 2:30 p.m., November 28, 2011.

Ordinance 10-O-12: Amending Class S Liquor License
For Introduction
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
Administration and Public Works Committee
From: W. Grant Farrar, Corporation Counsel
Wendy McCambridge, Administrative Adjudication Manager
Subject: Approval of Ordinance 10-O-12, Amending Class S Liquor License
Date: December 27, 2011
Recommended Action:
Local Liquor Commissioner recommends City Council adoption of Ordinance 10-O-12.
Summary:
Ordinance 10-O-12 amends the Class S liquor license to permit the sale of wine, beer,
and alcoholic liquor in the package store area of a combination restaurant/package
store. Currently, Class S permits the sale of wine only in the package store area. At
present, there are no Class S licenses in force.
At the November 28, 2011 Liquor Control Review Board (“Board”) meeting, Board
members were presented with the business plan of a potential Class S applicant. The
prospective business owner, Anne Carlson, plans to open a restaurant serving small
plates and cheese in conjunction with a small retail area selling craft wine, beer and
liquor. The business will be located on Howard Street in Evanston. Ms. Carlson
requested that the Class S definition be amended to permit the sale of wine, beer, and
liquor at retail. The Board did not object to Ms. Carlson’s request, and recommended
an amendment to the Class S license that reflects the business plan presented by Ms.
Carlson. If the City Council adopts this ordinance, it is contemplated that Ms. Carlson
will follow up and submit a license application for a Class S license. Accordingly,
Ordinance 10-O-12 amends Class S by permitting the retail sale of beer, wine, and
liquor pursuant to volume restrictions, and repeals restrictions on the retail area’s floor
space and on the sale of wine in bottles with “twist-off” tops and the requirement that
wine sold in the retail area be listed on the restaurant’s menu.

Administration & Public Works Committee
From: Steve Griffin, Director Community and Economic Development

Paul Zalmezak, Economic Development Coordinator
Subject: Evanston North Shore Contractors Cooperative – Request for Financial
Assistance for Contractor Cooperative at 1817 Church Street
Date: December 20, 2011
At the December 12, 2011 City Council meeting, Alderman Holmes requested that
Administration and Public Works Committee defer the proposed discussion and
recommendation of a resolution to execute a TIF Construction Loan agreement and
Ordinances 106-O-11, 107-0-11 authorizing the City Manager to negotiate and execute
the sale of 1817 Church Street at the Administration and Public Works Committee. The
Committee agreed to hold their discussion of the resolution and ordinances in order for
staff and the Evanston North Shore Contractors Cooperative (ENSCC) to respond to
questions presented to Staff by Alderman Holmes in an email dated December 13,
2011.
The Alderman’s questions and staff / ENSCC responses are presented below:
1. What is the corporate formation of the ENSCC?
The ENSCC is proposing to create a Limited Liability Corporation (LLC). The LLC
will be formally incorporated upon successful negotiation with the City for the 1817
Church Street property. The group exists and is organized and has presented itself,
but does not want to pay for the incorporation until it knows it has City Council
approval. The creation of the LLC is for the sole purpose of operating in the 1817
Church property. Until then, it will continue to operate as a group without the
LLC/incorporation.

For City Council meeting of January 9, 2012 Items A12.1 – A12.4
Response to Aldermanic Questions Regarding 1817 Church Street Project
For Action
165

2. Can the city enter into an agreement with a group that is not a formal LLC?
The group must be able to negotiate and agree collectively. The City Manager will
not sign the agreement until ENSCC has signed the agreement, which cannot
happen until they incorporate.
3. Will negotiating with a group that is not a LLC set a precedent?
Negotiating with ENSCC prior to incorporation does not establish a binding
precedent. In this case, the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) CDBG
Committee accepted the proposal from this not-yet incorporated entity and
recommended that staff work with them to move the project forward. There is
nothing to suggest that we must or cannot do so again.
4. Will anyone be able to come to the City and request funding without being a
formal group?
Yes. Staff will consider and vet requests for funding from any Evanston-based
business or proposed business. The City of Evanston does not restrict the initial
request for assistance to incorporated businesses. The City will require that a project
proponent / applicant be established/incorporated prior to executing any agreement.
5. Has the city staff reviewed the operating agreement of the LLC?
ENSCC has not created or filed an operating agreement at this time as explained in
the answer to question 1 above. Furthermore, the City does not customarily review
such agreements. The proponent will be bound by the executed contract and
redevelopment agreement with the City. The City could require that ENSCC
disclose the operating agreement as a condition of executing the agreement, if
desired by the City Council.
What about a business plan?
Staff has reviewed the business plan. ENSCC presented the “Incubator Building
Prospectus” April 26, 2011, to the CDBG Committee. The ENSCC plan includes a
project narrative, a property summary, membership listing and resumes, a
redevelopment budget with estimates attached, project pro forma, income/expense
projections, and floor plans.
166

6. What is the actual number of the group? 10-12-and 13 have been used.
In the internal meeting on December 5, 2011, Mr. Leineweber indicated that there
are currently 12 members of the LLC after the departure of Mark’s Masonry, Inc. It
is possible that the LLC membership may be reduced by two members based on
economic or individual contractor personal reasons, primarily due to the delay in
starting this project. The 10 members are the core group representing all the
necessary trades and meet the City's proposed requirement of 40% minority and
75%resident participation.
7. Since the group cannot create new jobs because of the nature of their work
and they can’t do payrolls or benefits, if they do provide at least four training
opportunities for unemployed Evanston residents, who in the group is
certified by the state to provide the training?
The intent of program is not certified training. The concept is to bring a minimum of
four unemployed Evanston residents onto job sites as paid project assistants. The
skills gained during these projects would provide a foundation for these unemployed
individuals to gain, independent of the ENSCC, longer term employment and
perhaps encourage them to pursue a career in the building trades and enter into a
certified training opportunities from organizations such as DeVry or Coyne.
8. What will be the actual cost of the rental space per square foot?
The proposed rent is $20.16 / sq ft (=$108,000 income / 5,000 sq ft). Rent ranges
$300 to $700 monthly, with the benefit of being co-located with other contractors and
home service businesses.
9. Who on the city staff will monitor the conditions of the contract?
Economic Development staff with the assistance of Department of Law staff will
monitor the performance.
10. Is this the best use of TIF dollars? Are there other sources that can be used?
While there are several potential sources of economic development funding,
including CDBG or the Economic Development Fund, Staff recommends using TIF
for this project for the following reasons:
1. The $200,000 TIF-funded construction loan will be paid back to be used for other
projects. The repayment of the TIF is fiscally responsible, as typically TIF funding
is provided as a grant.
167
4
2. TIF in this case is used to leverage private investment from ENSCC, which is one
of the primary objectives of TIF. The project currently generates $0 in property
tax revenue as it is publically owned. Upon executing the agreement, the
property returns to the tax rolls.
3. Ideally, a private development project seeking TIF will generate increment (that
is, create value). ENSCC’s proposal does just that. At the end of the
rehabilitation period and when fully operational, the property will generate a
projected $16,000 in property taxes.
4. The use of $220,000 in TIF funds to repay CDBG funds to HUD allows the
transfer of the property to ENSCC, removing the City’s burden of maintaining the
property, and provides the opportunity to use $220,000 in CDBG elsewhere in
the neighborhood. In essence, TIF is being used to leverage neighborhood
investment.
5. Finally, upon completion of the rehabilitation and when fully operational, the
projected $16,000 in property taxes generated repays this $220,000 TIF
investment before the West Evanston TIF expires in 2028.
11. What does it cost the City to maintain the building?
Currently, Parks, Recreation and Community Services processes a payment of $245
monthly ($2,940 annually) from the General Fund for protective scaffolding at the
building. In FY 2011, the City spent $3,300 from CDBG funds for electricity. ComEd
provides minimum service to the building.

To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
Administration & Public Works Committee
From: Nancy Radzevich, Economic Development Manager
Paul Zalmezak, Economic Development Coordinator
Subject: Approval to reimburse the Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD) for fair market value of property located at 1817
Church Street
Date: December 12, 2011
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager to reimburse HUD
$220,000 from the West Evanston TIF for the Community Development Block Grant
(CDBG) investment in 1817 Church Street per HUD regulations. The $220,000 buyout
of HUD CDBG funds can be redirected back into the community for other projects. This
item was held at the Administration & Public Works Committee meeting on December
12, 2011.
Funding Source:
West Evanston Tax Increment Finance District fund 5870.65515
Summary:
The Evanston North Shore Contractors Cooperative (ENSCC) proposes a $330,000
renovation to the city-owned property at 1817 Church Street. The renovated property
will house the ENSCC operations. The ENSCC will be composed of twelve independent
Evanston businesses representing a variety of building trades, who are primarily home
based businesses. The space will provide these businesses the opportunity to
collaborate and refer customers to others within the space to foster expansion of their
business.
Because CDBG funds had been used to acquire and maintain the property and was
also being considered for funding elements of the proposal, the City was required to
abide by HUD’s strictly defined economic development guidelines.
Memorandum
For City Council meeting of January 9, 2012 Item A12.1
Business by City Motion: Reimburse HUD for Value of 1817 Church Street
For Action
169
2
The City and proponent were seeking to qualify the project as providing a direct benefit
to low/moderate income persons because many of the businesses are micro-
enterprises (5 or fewer employees, including owners) and many of the owners are
themselves low/moderate income. Under this classification, providing direct assistance
to the LLC member companies would meet a CDBG National Objective by serving
low/moderate income persons.
HUD, however, disallowed this method of meeting a National Objective and instead
required new job creation for low/moderate income persons as the criteria to meet a
National Objective. Under this interpretation, an individual starting a business may be
counted as a new job, but this would require each of the twelve contractors to establish
their business after the formation of the cooperative. This conflicts with the ENSCC
business model which requires the contractors to be a registered LLC prior to joining the
ENSCC. In addition, the nature of contractor work is often seasonal and/or requires only
part time construction jobs. HUD does not recognize these jobs as permanent so they
could not be counted toward meeting the goals required for CDBG funding.
Based on the likelihood that the ENSCC plan would not meet HUD standards, and the
City’s desire to proceed with the proponents proposal, staff recommends buying out the
HUD investment. The $220,000 buyout of HUD CDBG funds can be redirected back
into the community for other projects.
Legislative History:
On July 27, 2011, Economic Development Committee voted to recommend approval of
sale and a loan for the renovation of 1817 Church.
On November 28, 2011, the Administration & Public Works Committee recommended
the introduction of ordinances 106-O-11 and 107-0-11, authorizing the City Manager
to negotiate and execute the sale of 1817 Church Street. City Council introduced the
ordinances the same evening.

• Support and strengthening of existing and new Evanston-based small
construction related trade businesses through the development business to
business collaboration and leads.
• Creation of some new jobs as well as apprenticeships opportunities; with a first
priority for local residents.
• Opportunities for complementary small neighborhood businesses to locate in
ground floor offices spaces.
• The “buyout” of HUD investment allows for the use of those CDBG funds for
other priority projects in the neighborhood.
• By structuring the rehab assistance as a loan, the TIF funds will be paid back and
will available for future projects in the West Evanston TIF district.
Funding Source
Staff proposes to use a total of $440,000 from the West Evanston Tax Increment
Finance District fund 5870.65515, split between a $200,000 loan to ENSCC and
$220,000 (current appraised value of the property) to reimburse HUD for CDBG
investment per HUD regulations. Staff expected that a portion of this project will be
funded in FY11 and FY12. For FY 2011, $490,000 has been budgeted. To
date, $64,520 has been committed from the fund. For FY2012, $1.2M has been
proposed for Economic Development projects in the draft budget.
Project Update Since November 28, 2011 City Council Meeting
Since the introduction of the two ordinances at the November 28th meeting of the City
Council, a number of changes to the agreement with ENSCC have been proposed.
They include:
1. All renovation and expansion work shall have been completed within eighteen
(18) months of the issuance of the initial building permit. The original submission
provided a 12 month timeframe.
2. Within three years, ENSCC shall create no fewer than four training opportunities
for unemployed Evanston residents. The original submission required ENSCC to
identify trainees from four specified organizations.
3. If ENSCC fails to abide by these terms, ENSCC has the option to pay Seller for
the Property the amount determined by the following formula: $220,000.00 - (M x
$3,666.67), where M is equal to the number of whole months that have elapsed
between the Deed Date and the Reverter Notice Date. In the original equation, M
was equal to the number of whole quarters.
Legislative History
On April 26, 2011, the Housing and Community Development Act Committee held a
public comment period to generate ideas for redevelopment of the property. Mr. John
Leineweber spoke on behalf of the ENSCC and introduced the cooperative concept.
The committee moved that ENSCC present a detailed proposal at the May 17th
committee meeting.

On May 17, 2011, the ENSCC presented a detailed proposal. The Housing and
Community Development Act Committee referred it to the City’s Legal and Community
& Economic Development Departments to work out financing and legal issues and
requested and received an update on its progress at its June 21, 2011 meeting.
The Economic Development Committee, on July 27, 2011 considered and
recommended approval of the $200,000 construction loan from the West Evanston TIF.
Staff also introduced the challenges associated with the CDBG funding related to the
ENSCC proposal.
The Administration & Public Works Committee recommended introduction of two
ordinances to City Council on November 28, 2011. The City Council introduced the two
ordinances the same evening.

• Generation of new property tax revenues and additional TIF increment.
• Support and strengthening of existing and new Evanston-based small
construction related trade businesses through the development business to
business collaboration and leads.
• Creation of new jobs as well as apprenticeships opportunities; with a first priority
for local residents.
• Opportunities for complementary small neighborhood businesses to locate in
ground floor offices spaces.
• The “buyout” of HUD investment allows for the use of those CDBG funds for
other priority projects in the neighborhood.
• By structuring the rehab assistance as a loan, the TIF funds will be paid back and
will be available for future projects in the West Evanston TIF district.
Funding Source
Staff proposes to use a total of $440,000 from the West Evanston Tax Increment
Finance District fund 5870.65515, split between a $200,000 loan to ENSCC and
$220,000 (current appraised value of the property) to reimburse HUD for CDBG
investment per HUD regulations. Staff expected that a portion of this project will be
funded in FY2011 and FY2012. For FY2011, $490,000 has been budgeted. To
date, $64,520 has been committed from the fund. For FY2012, $1.2M has been
proposed for Economic Development projects in the proposed budget.
Summary
The City of Evanston purchased the property at 1817 Church Street in 1976 with CDBG
fund. Since then, the building has served a number of uses including police department
outpost, neighborhood center, and social service agencies. In 2001, the property was
sold to West Evanston Citizens District Council for purpose of establishing the Black
American Heritage House and Technology Center. However, the project did not move
forward and the facility was reclaimed in 2007. Including the acquisition costs, the City
has used approximately $296,000 in CDBG funds for building management, renovation,
and the failed conversion to the heritage house/technology center concept. The
building is valued at $220,000 based on a fair market value “as-is” appraisal completed
August 23, 2011.
Proposal:
In April 2011, John Leineweber on behalf of ENSCC proposed to rehab the property to
house the Home Service / Building Trades Cooperative. The ENSCC estimates a total
project cost of $330,000. The cooperative will be composed of thirteen independent
Evanston businesses representing a variety of building trades. The thirteen contractor
start-ups are primarily sole proprietors who operate out of their homes. The space will
provide these businesses the opportunity to collaborate and refer customers to others
within the space to foster expansion of their business.

The upper floors of the building will house the building trades while the ground floor will
feature a home design showroom, conference room, workshop and offices. Additional
services provided to the start ups will include a shared business administration office
(e.g. admin support services, copier, fax, etc).
ENSCC estimates the one-year renovation will cost $330,000 (including $30,000 in soft
costs). The thirteen members will invest a total of $130,000 toward the
renovation/expansion ($10,000 each which includes a minimum $2,500 cash
contribution and sweat equity valued at $30/hr).
HUD:
Because CDBG had been used to acquire and maintain the property and was also
being considered for funding elements of the proposal, the City was required to abide by
HUD’s strictly defined economic development guidelines.
The City and proponent were seeking to qualify the project as providing a direct benefit
to low/moderate income persons because many of the businesses are micro-
enterprises (5 or fewer employees, including owners) and many of the owners are
themselves low/moderate income. Under this classification, providing direct assistance
to the LLC member companies would meet a CDBG National Objective by serving
low/moderate income persons.
HUD, however, disallowed this method of meeting a National Objective and instead
required new job creation for low/moderate income persons as the criteria to meet a
National Objective. Under this interpretation, an individual starting a business may be
counted as a new job, but this would require each of the thirteen contractors to establish
their business after the formation of the cooperative. This conflicts with the ENSCC
business model which requires the contractors to be a registered LLC prior to joining the
ENSCC. In addition, the nature of contractor work is often seasonal and/or requires only
part time construction jobs. HUD does not recognize these jobs as permanent so they
could not be counted toward meeting the goals required for CDBG funding.
Based on the likelihood that the ENSCC plan would not meet HUD standards, and the
City’s desire to proceed with the proponents proposal, staff recommends buying out the
HUD investment by following the course of action summarized below.
Recommendation for City Assistance
ENSCC is seeking to leverage its $130,000 equity investment with a $200,000 loan to
complete the $330,000 project. Because of the potential public and economic benefits
described below, staff recommends:
1. “buying out” HUD’s CDBG interest in the property with West Evanston TIF funds
at current market value of $220,000, per HUD guidelines;
Attachment from November 28, 2011 City Council Meeting
176
Attachment A

2. reinvesting the $220,000 CDBG funds in other project(s), as yet to be
determined, in the immediate neighborhood;
3. selling the property to the ENSCC for $1 with conditions/performance standards
and quitclaim deed for a 5 year period; and
4. lending $200,000 from the West Evanston TIF to ENSCC to help complete the
project.
The table below summarizes the investment.

TIF Loan Paid Back $200,000
Net Impact after Five Years $ (296,000)
Under this structure, the City’s net outlay for the development is the $296,000 of CDBG
funds used to operate and maintain the property since acquiring it in 1976. The
$220,000 buyout of HUD CDBG funds can be redirected back into the community for
other projects, while the $200,000 TIF loan is repaid to the TIF to be used for other
projects.
Recommended Financial Assistance and Conditions:
The City’s commitment for up to $200,000 in financial assistance from the West
Evanston TIF for the renovation, rehabilitation and expansion of the building at 1817
Church, and transfer of the property to ENSCC is subject to the conditions outlined in
the attached ordinance and resolutions and summarized as follows:
1. The City shall provide financial assistance of up to $200,000, in the form of an
interest-free loan; ENSCC shall repay the loan in full, thirty (30) months after the
commencement of the project.
2. All renovation and expansion work shall have been completed within twelve (12)
months of the issuance of the initial building permit.
3. The ENSCC shall make a good faith effort to utilize Evanston based businesses
for building supplies, subcontractors, and administrative services providers.
4. Within two years, ENSCC shall lease at least one space to a contractor who is
not a LLC member, and give first priority to recruitment of residents from the
immediate neighborhood, followed by recruitment of Evanston-based individuals.

5. Within three years, ENSCC shall create no fewer than four apprenticeships
through partnerships with the James B. Moran Center for Youth Advocacy, the
Youth Job Center, or another mutually-agreed upon entity.
6. For a period of no less than five years from initiation of the project, ENSCC shall:
a. Operate the Cooperative on the property.
b. Maintain contractor ratio of at least 75% Evanston residents during
term of agreement.
c. First priority recruitment of qualified residents from within the
immediate neighborhood to staff the administrative support services of
the ENSCC.
d. Maintain LLC membership of at least 40% minority-owned firms
7. If ENSCC fails to abide by these terms, ENSCC is required to pay Seller for the
Property the amount determined by the following formula: $220,000.00 - (M x
$2,444.45), where M is equal to the number of whole months that have elapsed
between the Deed Date and the Reverter Notice Date.
Public Benefits and Economic Development Evaluation
The proposed renovation of the 1817 Church property will result in a number of benefits
to this project, including:
• Individual Contractors’ Investment in Rehab of a Building in TIF “Conservation
Area”
• Apprentices, primarily from the neighborhood, will have an opportunity to develop
skills transferable in the building trades industry
• Rehab Expansion Assistance through a Loan that will be Repaid and Reinvested
in TIF District
• Real Estate Taxes Added to TIF District Increment
• Attraction of Additional Day-Time Uses to Support Existing and New Businesses
• Demand for Additional Commercial Space for “Second-stage” Businesses
• Co-work Center Provides Services and Mentorship Opportunities for Next Round
of New “Start Up” Tradesmen for the Cooperative
• Ancillary Professional Service Businesses Provide Needed Professional Services
to the Cooperative and Surrounding Community

Subject: Ordinance 106-O-11, Authorizing the City Manager to Negotiate the Sale
of 1817 Church Street
Date: December 7, 2011
Recommended Action:
Staff requests adoption of Ordinance 106-O-11. The sales agreement included in
Ordinance 107-O-11 has been modified since the ordinance was introduced in
November 28, 2011 reflecting changes resulting from ongoing negotiations between
Aldermen, applicant, and staff. This ordinance was held at the December 12, 2011 City
Council meeting. These changes are summarized below.
Funding Source:
N/A
Summary:
Aldermen, staff and the applicant have continued negotiating terms since the November
28, 2011 introduction resulting in a number of modifications to the sales agreement
including the addition of a Land Due Diligence Contingency providing opportunity for
Purchaser to investigate zoning of the Property, soil and environmental matters, title,
and survey.
The City owned property at 1817 Church Street is currently improved with a vacant,
dilapidated structure, which may be renovated and put to a productive use by a
purchaser.
The City of Evanston purchased the property at 1817 Church Street in 1976. Over the
years, the building has served as a neighborhood center, housed various social
services agencies and served as an outpost for the Evanston Police Department. In
2001, the property was sold to the West Evanston Citizens District Council for the
Memorandum
For City Council meeting of January 9, 2012 Item A12.3
Ordinance 106-O-11: Negotiate Sale of 1817 Church Street

purpose of establishing a Black American Heritage House and Technology Center that
would contribute to the revitalization and redevelopment of the Church-Dodge
neighborhood business district and serve primarily the residents of the surrounding
neighborhoods. Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds were provided by
the City for part of the rehab work. The facility was reclaimed by the City in 2007
because the building was not open to the public according to the terms of sale, and the
public benefit required based on the investment of federal funds was not accomplished.
On April 26, 2011, John Leineweber, on behalf of the Evanston North Shore Contractors
Cooperative (ENSCC), presented to the Housing and Community Development Act
Committee (HCDAC) the proposal to rehab the 1817 Church Street building and convert
that structure into a Home Service/Building Trades Incubator. Mr. Leineweber
explained that the ENSCC, which is composed of 12 independent Evanston businesses
representing different building trades, proposes to redevelop the property as a small
business incubator for building trades. The group proposed a small business incubator
for building trades on the upper floors (2nd and 3rd floors) with a home design
center/showroom, conference room, workshop, and two additional offices for related
home service businesses on the ground floor. The proposal includes a 1,000 square
foot addition to the second floor to accommodate additional offices for the incubator
members.
The incubator would provide shared administrative support services, copier, etc. for the
businesses, most of which are sole proprietors operating out of their homes. The
incubator will enable these businesses to work together on projects, refer customers to
others in the group and expand awareness in Evanston and beyond to foster business
growth and expansion.
Through this proposal, the property will return to the tax rolls, the property taxes
generated will provide additional increment to the TIF, which can in turn be used for
additional projects in this area. The project proponent estimates approximately
$12,000-$15,000 in annual real estate taxes being generated once the property is
transferred to ENSCC and the building is fully renovated and operating as proposed.
Legislative History:
On July 27, 2011, Economic Development Committee voted to recommend approval of
sale and a loan for the renovation of 1817 Church.
On November 28, 2011, the Administration & Public Works Committee recommended
the introduction of ordinances 106-O-11 and 107-0-11, authorizing the City Manager
to negotiate and execute the sale of 1817 Church Street. City Council introduced the
ordinances the same evening.

exchange for the covenants described below, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this

ARTICLE 3
CONDITIONS PRECEDENT
In addition to the terms and conditions set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, Purchaser’s
obligation to purchase the Property shall be subject to the following conditions precedent:
3.1 Land Due Diligence Contingency; Review Period.
(a) During the sixty (60) day period (the “Land Due Diligence Review Period”)
following the Effective Date, Purchaser and its agents and contractors shall have the right to
enter upon the Property and conduct such tests and investigations as may be necessary for
Purchaser to determine whether there are any matters which in Purchaser’s judgment would
make infeasible Purchaser’s Intended Use of the Property. Among the matters Purchaser may
investigate are (i) a zoning of the Property; (ii) soil and environmental matters; (iii) the state of
title to the Property as evidenced by the Title Commitment; (iv) matters shown on the
Preliminary Survey; (v) the availability and sufficiency of utilities, including water, sanitary
sewer, storm/retention facilities, telephone, gas and electricity; and (vi) the existence of any
laws, regulations or judicial matters affecting the Property. Within five (5) business days after
the Effective Date, Seller shall provide Purchaser with a copy of each of the items (the “Delivery
Items”) described on Exhibit B that affect the Property and which are in Seller’s possession or
control. The Land Due Diligence Review Period shall be extended day to day for each day
Seller is late in delivering the Delivery Items to Purchaser.
211
3
(b) In the event the Purchaser, acting in its sole discretion, determines during the
Land Due Diligence Review Period that any of the matters reviewed by Purchaser would make
unfeasible Purchaser’s Intended Use or purchase of the Property, then Purchaser may elect to
terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice of termination to Seller at any time on or
prior to the last day of the Land Due Diligence Review Period. If Purchaser fails to give Seller
notice of termination by the end of the Land Due Diligence Review Period, then the Land Due
Diligence Contingency will be deemed waived.
(c) If Purchaser so elects to terminate this Agreement, Purchaser shall (i) return to
Seller any materials Seller had delivered to Purchaser in connection with Purchaser’s review, and
(ii) deliver to Seller (without cost to Seller) any and all title reports, surveys, soil tests, or
environmental studies pertaining to the Property which Purchaser has obtained during the Land
Due Diligence Review Period. Items (i) and (ii) are called the “Return Items”.
(d) Purchaser shall repair any damage to the Property resulting from Purchaser’s
activities on the Property under this Agreement. Purchaser shall indemnify, defend, and hold
harmless Seller and Seller’s elected and appointed officials, employees and agents from and
against any and all loss, damage, liability or expense (including reasonable attorneys fees) and
claims and liens of mechanics or materialmen any of the indemnified parties may incur as a
result of Purchaser’s access, other than any property damage or injury to any person, which
damage or injury is (i) related to Hazardous Materials (as defined in Section 6.1 below) in
existence on the Property or (ii) is caused by the negligence of Seller. The indemnity obligations
of Purchaser under this Section 3.1 shall survive the Closing or a termination of this Agreement,
notwithstanding anything contained to the contrary in this Agreement. Any investigation or
inspection conducted by Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement, in order to verify satisfaction of
any conditions precedent to Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement or to determine
whether Seller’s representations and warranties are true and accurate, shall not affect (or
constitute a waiver by Purchaser of) any of the provisions of this Agreement or Purchaser’s
reliance on such provisions.
3.2 Governmental Approvals Contingency.
(a) Both Purchaser’s and Seller’s obligation to close shall be contingent upon
Purchaser’s ability to obtain the Governmental Approvals (defined in subparagraph (b) below)
for the Property that are necessary for Purchaser’s Intended Use and which are satisfactory in all
respects to both Purchaser and Seller. During the Land Due Diligence Review Period and
thereafter through the Governmental Approvals Period (defined below), Purchaser at its expense
shall seek to obtain or to confirm the availability of the Governmental Approvals. It is
understood that Seller being a party to this Agreement shall not in any way obligate it to grant
the Governmental Approvals for the Property, and that Purchaser’s application(s) for the
Governmental Approvals will be reviewed under normal City of Evanston processes subject to
the normal City of Evanston standards of review without regard to the existence of this
Agreement. If Purchaser determines in its sole discretion at any time during the Governmental
Approvals Period that it will not be able to secure satisfactory Governmental Approvals,
Purchaser shall have the right, by written notice to Seller, to terminate this Agreement. If
Purchaser fails to give notice of satisfaction of the Governmental Approvals by the end of the
Governmental Approvals Period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have terminated this Agreement.
212
4
If Purchaser gives a notice of satisfaction of the Governmental Approvals, then Seller shall have
the right to give notice that Seller is not satisfied with the Governmental Approvals. If Seller
fails to give such notice within ten (10) days after receipt of Purchaser’s satisfaction notice, then
Seller will be deemed to be satisfied with the Governmental Approvals and the contingency in
this Section 3.2 shall be satisfied. If Seller gives notice that it is not satisfied with the
Governmental Approvals after Purchaser has given a notice of satisfaction, then at Purchaser’s
election Purchaser may by notice to Seller elect to (i) terminate this Agreement or (ii) reinstate
the Governmental Approvals Period. If Purchaser fails to give notice of its election to Seller
within ten (10) days after receipt of Seller’s dissatisfaction notice, Purchaser will be deemed to
have elected to reinstate the Governmental Approval Period. Upon a termination of this
Agreement under this Section 3.2, Purchaser shall deliver the Return Items to Seller. As used in
this Agreement, the “Governmental Approvals Period” shall mean the period beginning on the
Effective Date and running through __________________, 20____.
(b) As used in this Agreement, the “Governmental Approvals” shall mean the
obtaining of the following items on terms and conditions satisfactory to Purchaser and Seller: (i)
Purchaser satisfying itself that water, sanitary and storm sewer services sufficient to service
Purchaser’s Intended Use will be available to serve the Property on terms and conditions
satisfactory to Purchaser, and that each can be used by Purchaser at tap-on fees and rates
satisfactory to Purchaser, and (ii) Purchaser satisfying itself that it can obtain building permits
and other authorizations from Seller and other public agencies and authorities as may be
necessary or appropriate for Purchaser’s Intended Use.
ARTICLE 4

(b) a commitment for the Property (together with all subsequent versions thereof

213
5
4.2 Permitted Exceptions. Prior to the end of the Land Due Diligence Review
Period, Purchaser shall provide Seller with a list of those title exceptions (including matters of
survey) which are satisfactory to Purchaser, acting reasonably. Such list shall be attached to this
Agreement as Exhibit C and shall constitute the “Permitted Exceptions” under this Agreement
unless and except to the extent that the list is modified pursuant to Section 4.4 hereof. Prior to
the end of the Land Due Diligence Review Period, Purchaser acting reasonably may also specify
any additional endorsements it shall require on each Title Policy. The provision of such
endorsements shall be a condition to Closing, but the expense of such endorsements shall be
borne by Purchaser.
4.3 Title Policy; Final Survey. At the Closing, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser an
Owner’s Title Insurance Policy in the form of the ALTA Form Owner’s Policy from the Title
Insurer, or in lieu thereof a marked-up title commitment from the Title Insurer (either being
referred to herein as the “Title Policy”) which shall: (i) be dated the Closing Date; (ii) name
Purchaser or its permitted assignee as the insured; (iii) have a liability amount equal to the
Purchase Price; (iv) show Purchaser or its permitted assignee as the owner of the Property in fee
simple subject to no exceptions other than the Permitted Exceptions; (v) include extended
coverage over the standard printed exceptions; (vi) and include the endorsements listed in
Section 4.1(b) together with any other endorsements specified by Purchaser pursuant to Section
4.2. At Purchaser’s option the Title Policy shall be a combined Policy for the Property provided
Seller will not be obligated to pay more than the portion of the cost thereof that is equitably
allocable to the Property.
4.4 Objection and Cure Period. If any Title Commitment or Preliminary Survey or
any updates of any of them contain any matters not constituting Permitted Exceptions or liens
which are of a definite and ascertainable amount which can be removed at Closing by payment
of money (“Removable Liens”), then the Seller may, at its election, within thirty (30) days after
Seller’s receipt from Purchaser of the Permitted Exceptions or a subsequent version of the Title
Commitment or Survey, as the case may be: (a) cause the non-permitted matters to be deleted
from the Title Commitment; (b) subject to Purchaser’s approval of such arrangement (acting
reasonably), cause the Title Insurer expressly to insure over such non-permitted matters; or (c)
object in writing to Purchaser to the exclusion of any one or more of such matters as a Permitted
Exception.
If Seller fails or elects not to cause all of the non-permitted matters to be deleted or
insured over within the aforementioned thirty (30) day period, Purchaser may by written notice
to Seller within five (5) days after the expiration of Seller’s 30-day objection and cure period
elect to: (x) terminate this Agreement; or (y) agree to take title subject to the matters at issue, in
which case the Permitted Exceptions shall be expanded to include the additional matters not
deleted or insured over, but with a deduction from and offset against the Purchase Price for all
Removable Liens. If the updated Title Commitment or Survey containing the non-permitted
matter is issued within thirty (30) days prior to the Closing, the Closing Date shall be extended as
necessary to give the Seller the benefit of the full 30-day objection and cure period and to give
Purchaser the benefit of the full five-day election period referred to above.

thereon a home repair & improvement/building trades cooperative (the “Intended Use”)
in substantial accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Seller requires assurance that
such operation will take place in accord with TIF regulations applicable to the Property
and the Intended Use. Accordingly, Seller and Purchaser agree that Seller will convey
the Property subject to the right of reverter set forth in this Exhibit D.
2. Contemporaneously with the execution of the deed from Seller to Purchaser, Purchaser
shall execute a quitclaim deed to Seller, transferring title to the Property from Purchaser
to Seller for the consideration of one dollar ($1.00). Said quitclaim deed to Seller shall
bear the same date (the “Deed Date”) as the special warranty deed from Seller to

a. operate the Intended Use on the Property;
b. maintain a membership of no less than seventy-five percent (75%) City of

3 above, Seller’s City Manager may issue Purchaser notice, via certified USPS mail, of
such failure. Purchaser shall have six (6) months from the date of such mailed notice
(“Reverter Notice Date”) to:
a. cure said failure to Seller’s satisfaction, not to be unreasonably withheld; or
b. pay Seller for the Property the amount determined by the following formula:
$220,000.00 - (M x $3,666.67), where M is equal to the number of whole months
that have elapsed between the Deed Date and the Reverter Notice Date.
227
D-2
5. If, at the end of the six (6) month period immediately following the Reverter Notice Date,
Purchaser has neither cured, pursuant to paragraph 4a above, nor paid, pursuant to
paragraph 4b above, Seller may exercise its right of reverter by a two-thirds () majority
vote of the Aldermen of Seller’s City Council in a meeting held after at least ten (10)
days prior notice to Purchaser, which vote authorizes the Corporation Counsel to record
the quitclaim deed conveying title from Purchaser to Seller.
6. If Seller does not exercise this right of reverter by recording said deed by the eight (8) six
(6) year anniversary of the Deed Date, then all of Seller’s rights under this Exhibit D
shall expire. In addition, if Purchaser satisfies all conditions of paragraph 3, then, on
request, Seller will execute and deliver to Seller a recordable release of Seller’s rights
under this Exhibit D in form reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser within ten (10) days of
such request. If this right of reverter ceases by expiration or by release, Seller will, upon
Purchaser’s request, return the quitclaim deed to Purchaser.
7. All conditions set forth in this Exhibit D shall survive the closing.
8. The terms and conditions in this Exhibit D shall run with the land and be binding on heirs
and successors in interest.

For City Council Meeting of January 9, 2012 Item A14
Ordinance 114-O-11: Amending Parking Meter Zones
For Action
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
Members of the Administration & Public Works Committee
From: Martin Lyons, Interim Director of Administrative Services
Rickey A. Voss, Parking/Revenue Manager
Subject: Ordinance 114-O-11 Amending Title 10, Motor Vehicles and Traffic,
Chapter 11, Traffic Schedules, Section 12: Schedule XII; Parking Meter
Zones
Date: November 21, 2011
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends approval of Ordinance 114-O-11 amending Title 10, Motor Vehicles
and Traffic, Chapter 11, Traffic Schedules, Section 12: Schedule XII; Parking Meter
Zones. These changes will impact all meter zones including 20 minute, 30 minute, 2
hour, 3 hour, 4 hour, 12 hour and 15 hour zones It is recommended that the amendment
take effect on February 1, 2012. This ordinance was introduced at the December 12,
2011 City Council meeting.
Summary:
During the FY 2012 Budget review process the City Council approved the increase of
short term meter zones from fifty cents ($.50) to seventy-five cents ($.75) and from
seventy-five cents ($.75) to one dollar ($1.00). Ordinance 114-O-11 has been prepared
to revise the meter rates in these zones as well as increase the remaining meter zones
by a commensurate amount. Please note that City has very few 20 minute and 30
minute meters and the impact of these changes to the budget and the user is minimal.
Longer term meters impact employee and commuter parking and the City also has
considerably less meters in this category than in the two hour zones.
Staff projects that the revenue increase from the short term meters will be $641,667 and
that the revenue increase from 20/30 minute and long-term meters will be $33,000 for
2012.
The attached copy of Ordinance 114-O-11 will address the various rate changes in
greater detail.

For City Council meeting of January 9, 2012 Item A16
Ordinance 117-O-11: Increasing False Alarm Fees
For Action
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
Administration and Public Works Committee
From: Marty Lyons, Assistant City Manager/Treasurer
Subject: Ordinance 117-O-11, Amending Various Sections of Chapter 11 of Title 9
of the Evanston City Code Regulating False Alarm Systems
Date: December 12, 2011
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends City Council approval of Ordinance 117-O-11 which would increase
City of Evanston Police and Fire-related false alarm fees. This increase was included
as a revenue enhancement item for the FY 2012 Budget and will take effect February 1,
2012. This Ordinance was introduced at the City Council meeting on December 12,
2011.
Funding Source:
N/A
Summary:
The City Council adopted the Fiscal Year 2012 Budget on November 28, 2011. As part
of the budget process, the City Council considered a series of revenue enhancements
and expenditure reductions proposed by staff in an effort to balance the General Fund
budget. The proposed ordinance would implement a 10% increase in City Police and
Fire-related false alarm fees.
The City currently charges a fee for Police and Fire-related false alarms. This fee is
applied when the City’s emergency communication center is notified of four or more
Police or Fire-related false alarms by a single user within a calendar year. The Police
and Fire false alarm fee structure is as follows:
Memorandum
252
Page 2 of 2
Number of False
Alarms Per Year
Fee Per
Alarm
0 to 3 Alarms $ -
4 to 10 Alarms $ 100.00
11 to 24 Alarms $ 300.00
25+ Alarms $ 500.00
As mentioned above, a 10% increase to the Police and Fire false alarm fee was
included as a revenue enhancement item for the FY 2012 Budget. As a result of this
increase, the new false alarm fee structure would be as follows:
Number of False
Alarms Per Year
Proposed Fee
Per Alarm
0 to 3 Alarms -$
4 to 10 Alarms 110.00$
11 to 24 Alarms 330.00$
25+ Alarms 550.00$
In addition to the proposed false alarm fee increase, staff will implement improved fee
collection methods as part of the FY 2012 Budget. These improved fee collection
methods include the addition of a full-time contractual Collections Coordinator position.
The proposed false alarm fee increases and improved collection methods are projected
to generate approximately $20,000 in new revenue for FY 2012. A summary of recent
false alarm fee revenue collections is provided below:
FY 2009-10 FY 2010-11 FY 2011*FY 2012

located at 1600 Foster Street (former Bishop Freeman site). $3,085,000.00 in funding
will be provided by: $2,085,000 in NSP2, $600,000 of West Evanston TIF, $300,000 of
HOME and $100,000 of Affordable Housing Fund (“AHF”) funds. The Illinois Housing
Development Authority will fund an additional $8.9 million from Low Income Housing
Tax Credits and other sources. For Action
Ald. Fiske moved to recommend approval of the amendment, seconded by Ald.
Wynne.
Chair Holmes called the public who wished to speak to the podium:
Rodney Greene of 2016 Brown Avenue, said he is against funding Brinshore
$3,085,000 for Phase 2 because they have not finished Phase 1. He described a
home at 2020 Brown that has been vacant since the owner passed away that should
have been demolished yet Brinshore chose to renovate it. He said that Cliff
Washington has bid on the job but could not pay for the required insurance so
Brinshore did not hire him. He believes Brinshore is doing faulty business and is not
helping the community.
Bill Smith, owner of Evanston Community Builders, said his company is mission-
driven: he hires people with high barriers to employment with the purpose of creating
meaningful and permanent employment for them. His company is doing quite a bit of
work for the NSP2 program and he intends to do more. He said it is not easy to
navigate the incredible payoff schedules and the slim profit margins but he is doing it
because it is keeping his people working. He said, given all the difficulties including
the competitiveness for landlords, he believes the program will improve the
neighborhood and the community is better served by working together to this end. He
asked how the City is tracking the number of residents that are better off through the
NSP2 program, how many jobs have been created and how we increase that number,
adding that none of the problems are insurmountable. He suggested that the 259

community work with Brinshore to enhance the bidding and allocation process to give
more work to small businesses, minorities and women’s businesses and to rent to as
many African Americans as possible. He referred to the house on Brown that was
addressed by Rodney Greene, saying that it had been brought back from the brink.
He said the work is very difficult as the homes they are renovating had gone into
foreclosure and are in very bad condition. While he was working on the house on
Brown an African American woman stopped by and asked to see it. She was
impressed with the work they had done and asked how she could obtain the house
and was very grateful for the improvement that had been done. He said many believe
the NSP2 program is finally providing some high quality affordable housing in the
community and will be of benefit, as many people have told him they would love to live
in Evanston but can’t afford to.
Eric Dingle, owner of Best One Built, said he has been working on the some NSP2
projects and that it has benefited him and his employees and sub contractors, in fact
the work is keeping him in his own house. He said many of the properties in the NSP2
area should be torn down they are in such bad condition and that the payment cycle is
long but the program is definitely improving the area. He believes Emerson Square
will also be an improvement.
Robin Rue, owner of Signature Construction Services, born and raised in the 5th ward
and raising her children on Dodge near Foster, said she has only good things to say
about the NSP2 program. She said her revenues have grown 30% in the past year
since she has been involved with Brinshore and she has worked on other projects that
have similar pay schedules so she does not have a problem with theirs. She said the
product is not an inferior finished product and that David Brint is very concerned about
the quality of the work when he goes on walkthroughs. She said her 6 full time
employees and subcontractors thank Brinshore and that she would have had to lay off
employees for the season if it was not for NSP2.
Jim Pareti, an Evanston resident and appraiser who has been working with Todd
Lieberman of Brinshore for 18 months, said the NSP program has had a positive
impact on his appraisal business. He thanked the City and Brinshore and said he
looks forward to working with them in the future.
Ray Hansen has a surveying company. He said the NSP2 program has had a positive
impact on his business and kept his people employed. He said he sees the before
and after and he is impressed and that Evanston should be very proud of having these
buildings instead of the dilapidated buildings that had been there.
Theresa Velazquez said she wanted to move to Evanston because Park School is the
best for her child, who has disabilities. She also has her son enrolled in District 65 for
a speech program. She had been living in a substandard apartment in Evanston,
paying $800 a month for rent plus $300 a month for utilities in which there was mold,
roaches, bugs and category A and B violations which had not been corrected. She
needs a 1st floor apartment for wheelchair access and she could not find one for less
than a $200 increase, the median rent for a 1 bedroom being $800-$1000 and $1,000-
$1,600 for a 2 bedroom. She was afraid she would have to move out of District 65

and back to the south side of Chicago until Brinshore rented her a beautiful 3 bedroom
apartment she could afford. With tears in her eyes she thanked Brinshore.
Nate Kipnis, an Evanston architect who’s office is at 1642 Payne, said he has been
contracted by Brinshore to do architecture, which has been one of the hardest hit
professions in the economic downturn, with 25% of architecture firms out of business.
He said Brinshore has provided him with his base load for the past one and a half
years. He is astounded at some of the conditions of the dwellings such as mold
infestation, where children have been living. He added that Brinshore is doing a
tremendous amount of green work and he has created their green specifications. He
thanked the City.
Lou Dickson of the Evanston Rebuilding Warehouse explained that her company
dismantles and recycles building materials, keeping them from going into landfills.
She became affiliated with Brinshore when her company was granted $25,000 by the
CDBG fund to train a qualified Section 3 workforce, whom she hires first, including 12
Evanston residents who are her employees. She thanked the City for the CDBG
grant. She said she is working with Brinshore to dismantle buildings and keep
recyclable building materials out of landfills.
Jolene Saul, NSP2 Specialist, explained that this amendment to the Redevelopment
Agreement covers Emerson Square and that the original agreement only included the
scattered sites because other funding sources were not in place at that time. She
explained further that Emerson Square is a component of the West Evanston Master
Plan, whose goals are for affordable housing, improved land use and a safer
neighborhood.
Todd Lieberman of Brinshore Development, LLC, said he was touched by all the
speakers. He presented plans for Emerson Square, a new construction, mixed
income development on a former Brownfield site. He explained that Brinshore has
over 4,300 residences in their portfolio in Illinois, Iowa, Wisconsin and Indiana. The
Emerson Square project is committed to a contextual design in their goal to stabilize
the neighborhood, rebuild a public park, add a new street and build a community
garden using MWEBE employees, and improving safety and land use in this former
industrial corridor that had been owned by Bishop Freeman. Mr. Lieberman presented
photos of the current site pointing out the impervious surface and poor condition.
Brinshore plans to build 32 units on 2.34 acres in the first phase. He said the City
received the NSP2 grant for this project and they have closed the gap with funding
from the Illinois Housing Authority. He overlayed the plan with the West Evanston
Master Plan to illustrate its conformity. They plan 5 housing types including 1, 2 and 3
bedrooms with in unit laundry, high grade finishes, and an on-site leasing office.
Steve Rezabek of Papageorge Hanes Architects presented the site plan, further
explaining that they plan to build 9 townhomes on the new street and 2 6-flat buildings
along Foster. Parking will be accessed through the alley except for 1 parking lot. The
townhomes will have covered entry porches, double hung windows and brick and
stone details. The rents will range from $287-$830/month for (4) 1 bedrooms, $339-
$1,018/month for (18) 2 bedrooms and $372-$908/month for (10) 3 bedrooms,
providing housing for a wide variety of incomes.

The Committee voted unanimously, 5-0 to recommend approval of the
Amendment.
(P4) Approval of Appointment of a Mayoral Committee to Consider Proposed
Ordinance 38-O-11 Regarding the Licensing of Rental Dwelling Units
The Planning and Development Committee recommended at its November 14, 2011
meeting that a mayoral-appointed committee be established to review proposed
Ordinance 38-O-11 regarding the licensing of rental dwelling units. For Action
Chair Holmes called the public who wished to speak to the podium:
Josh Braun, representing the Evanston Property Owners’ Association (EPOA), noted
that there are over 3,000 rental units in Evanston. He said he understands that the
City’s goal is to provide safety, landlord identification and increased revenue, but said
there are already a property maintenance code and a rental registration ordinance in
place and asked what the need is for licensing. He said the EPOA wants to work with
the City to focus on the real problems, acknowledging that not all landlords are good
but he does not want the bad ones to bring the good ones down. He recommended
that the Mayoral Committee, before considering another ordinance, study the
problems further, and include students, landlords, City staff and aldermen to work
towards finding permanent solutions to the problems. He wants to be there to help
solve the problems.
Ald. Rainey moved to recommend approval of the appointment of a Mayoral
Committee, seconded by Ald. Wilson.
Chair Holmes said she wants to include small and large property owners and
representatives from other parts of the City such as the west side.
Ald. Rainey said Evanston has a huge population of tenants and landlords and she
would like to see more focus on permanent residents, not just students, adding that
tenants are staying in rental dwellings longer due to economic conditions. She said
she is a founding mother of the Landlord/Tenant Ordinance. She said landlords have
no problem being heard but she wants to hear from the tenants too.
Ald. Fiske agreed with Ald. Rainey that the focus appeared to be narrowly including
student tenants and agreed it affects all the wards. She volunteered to be on the
Mayoral Committee.
Ald. Wilson volunteered to be on the Mayoral Committee, stressing that it is important
to have landlords with small and large rental volume on the Mayoral Committee.
Ald. Rainey asked whether the Committee should submit their recommendations to
the Mayor, to which Chair Holmes replied that she has received several requests to be
on the Mayoral Committee. She asked that everyone forward their requests to the
Mayor. Ald. Rainey said she would like to assist the Mayor in choosing the members.

She said she has spoken to adjudicators who have referred to the wording in the
City’s ordinances, and she would like it to be improved and would like a representative
of the Legal Dept. to be on the Mayoral Committee to address this.
Chair Holmes stressed that the date certain for a solution is 90 days from when the
Mayoral Committee is approved.
The Committee voted unanimously 5-0 to recommend approval of the
appointment of a Mayoral Committee.

1629 Orrington Avenue 11ZMJV-0080
Steven Geller, lessee from LR 1603 Orrington LLC, for a special use permit at 1629
Orrington Avenue to operate a Day Care Center-Child. 1629 Orrington Avenue is
located in the D3 Downtown Core Zoning District, which requires a special use permit for
any Day Care Center-Child to operate. The Zoning Board of Appeals makes a
recommendation to the City Council, who is the final determining body.
Craig Sklenar, General Planner, entered 2 letters of support into the record, and then
gave a general overview of the site location, which has been vacant for some time. He
also gave an overview of Bright Horizons, the business associated with the case.
Debbie Brown, Vice President of Regional Development of Bright Horizons, then
displayed a presentation that described the program plan, site plan, and overview, as
shown in the ZBA packet materials. Ms. Brown explained in detail how the proposal
meets each of the Standards requirements.
Chairman Summers asked Ms. Brown how deliveries will be handled at the site, and Ms.
Brown replied that there should not be large deliveries consisting of multiple pallets, so
deliveries should not be of concern. Ms. Brown then explained that parking spaces will
be marked for 20 minute loading and unloading to ease congestion during drop off/pick
up times.
Cass Wolfe, 325 Dewey, entered documentation from the IFF into testimony, and
discussed Standard 3. Ms. Wolfe explained that the IFF has found that there is an
oversupply of day care centers for 3-5 year olds, so the proposed child care center will
hurt existing nonprofit day care centers by taking away their clientele. Ms. Berns asked
why there are waiting lists at many day care centers in Evanston if there is an
oversupply, and Ms. Wolfe replied that families often put their names on multiple lists
when they are first choosing a day care center so that they have multiple options when
273
DRAFT NOT APPROVED
spaces become available. Ms. Wolfe also noted that usually the day care centers with
waiting lists are considered the highest quality centers and have the highest demand. If
larger for-profit day care centers open, the smaller nonprofit day care centers will not
stay filled to capacity and will end up closing. Ms. Wolfe explained that she is not
opposed to Bright Horizons, but would like it noted in the record that there is not a
substantial need for day care centers that serve 3-5 year olds as Bright Horizons
depicted in testimony. Martha Arntson, 1023 Simpson, noted that nonprofit day care
centers reserve spaces for low income families using state subsidies. If the nonprofit
day care centers close, the subsidized families will not have usable day care facilities.
Ms. Brown explained that the Bright Horizons facility cannot limit which age groups the
day care center is open to, because families look for day care centers that can grow with
their children and accommodate them for multiple years. Ms. Brown also noted that
typically Bright Horizons reserves 15-20% of its spaces for low income families, and
hopes to do the same at the proposed location.
The Zoning Board then entered into deliberation:
Ms. Wineberg stated that, from an economic development standpoint this is an exciting
proposal. Ms. Wineberg thought this development would help revitalize this vacant area
of downtown. Chairman Summers then reviewed the Standards:
Standard 1 – yes because Day Care Center-Child is listed as a special use in the
Zoning Ordinance.
Standard 2 – yes because the Comprehensive Plan promotes a mix of uses in
the downtown area, especially uses that will further promote other businesses in
the area. Mr. Rodgers also noted that the site will maintain 2 retail spaces near
the street frontage that will be able to thrive past 5pm.
Standard 3 – yes because this use, with its location, will entertain a different
market than other child care facilities cater to. For example, Skokie is right next
door and has a shortage of child care facilities by approximately 50% of its
demand, so Skokie residents who work in Evanston will be able to utilize Bright
Horizons.
Standard 4 – this property has attempted redevelopment multiple times yet
remains vacant and this is a great opportunity for redevelopment, so yes.
Standard 5 – yes because access to the site is primarily run off of the alley, and
is connected to underground parking.
Standard 6 – a traffic report regarding a similar space was reviewed by City staff
and found acceptable, so yes.
Standard 7 – yes because it preserves the building and open space.
Standard 8 – yes because the existing planter spaces will be preserved, and
other planters will be placed on the roof top.
Standard 9 – yes, it appears at this time that all other ordinances will be met.
The Zoning Board then discussed limiting the hours of operation and agreed upon
6am – midnight since that is the regulation often given to restaurants. The board
also decided Bright Horizons must maintain a lease agreement for parking as
discussed in testimony.
A motion was approved for the special use 4 – 0 with the following conditions:
1) Hours of operation are limited to 6am – 12am midnight.
2) Bright Horizons must maintain a lease agreement for parking as discussed in
testimony

RE: Bright Horizons Daycare Facility – Evanston
Transportation Assessment – Parking Demand & Trip Generation
TENW Project No. 4544
This memorandum summarizes the transportation assessment conducted for the
proposed Bright Horizons Evanston Daycare Facility project located at 1629 Orrington
Avenue, Evanston, IL. Our assessment includes estimates of peak period parking
demand and trip generation.
Project Description
Based on information provided by Bright Horizons, we understand the project will include
occupancy of an existing 2 story building located on the east side of Orrington Avenue
between Davis Street and Church Street. The proposed daycare facility would include
up to 308 children and 58 employees. Vehicular access to the center would be provided
to a surface parking lot via an alley running between Davis and Church Streets, and to
an underground parking garage via ingress/egress ramps on Orrington Avenue. Initial
plans include the leasing of 20 parking stalls for parent drop-off/pick-up (14 parking stalls
in the adjacent surface parking lot plus 6 stalls in the parking garage), and 26 stalls in
the parking garage for employee parking (grand total of 46 parking stalls).
Background
TENW assisted Bright Horizons with the entitlement of a new Bright Horizons daycare
facility in Redmond, Washington (3000 block of 148th Ave NE). The Bright Horizons
Redmond Center facility opened in late 2009. Through the entitlement process and
subsequent monitoring studies, TENW has conducted observations and counts of both
vehicular parking demand and trip generation over the last two years.
Recent employee surveys and parking counts were conducted in October 2011 at the
Redmond location, which currently has 245 children enrolled and 65 employees. It is
important to note that the Redmond location is in a suburban setting where a vast
majority of employees arrive in single-occupant vehicles, and all parents have been
observed to drive to the center. In contrast to Evanston, Redmond has relatively limited
access to transit (busses), and there is no mass transit (commuter rail, subway etc).
With the exception of mode-split, the operations of the Redmond facility are expected to
be similar to the proposed Evanston facility based on our discussions with Bright
Horizons. Therefore, the methodology used in this assessment generally applies the
parking and trip rates observed at the Redmond facility, and factors them to account for
Evanston’s more urban mode splits.

Parking Demand
Parking demand estimates were based on our studies conducted in Redmond, WA and
adjusted for the vehicular mode splits expected in Evanston.
Peak period parking demand rates were derived from Redmond data for both employees
and parents. These rates are measured in parked vehicles per employee and parked
vehicles per child, respectively. Both AM (8:00-9:30 AM) and PM (5:00-6:00 PM) peak
periods were observed, which were the peak times for parent drop-offs and pick-ups.
Based on the Redmond data, the AM peak parking rates were 0.91 vehicles per
employee (for employee parking), and 0.07 vehicles per child (for parent drop-off
parking). The PM peak parking rates were 0.62 vehicles per employee (for employee
parking), and 0.13 vehicles per child (for parent pick-up parking).
Based on our discussions with Bright Horizons, the Evanston site is in a relatively urban
location with good access to transit and commuter rail. To account for more urban mode
splits in Evanston, the Redmond parking data was factored by the percentage of
employees and parents expected to drive to the Evanston facility. Bright Horizons
expects a vehicular mode split of 40% for employees (60% arrive via transit/walk
modes), and 70% for parents (30% arrive via transit/walk modes).
Table 1 summarizes the resulting AM and PM peak parking demand estimates for the
Bright Horizons Evanston project. More detailed calculations are included in
Attachment A.

As shown in Table 1, the proposed parking supply is expected to be adequate to support
the peak parking demands during the AM and PM peak periods. During the AM period
there is expected to be a surplus of both employee and parent parking stalls. During
the PM peak period there is expected to be a shortfall of parent pick-up stalls, but the
expected surplus of employee parking should accommodate the spillover of parent
parking demand. Our observations at the Redmond facility indicate that when drop-
off/pick-up parking spaces are fully occupied, parents will typically use the empty

employee parking spaces. This is an efficient use of parking spaces, as it is expected
that not all employees are present at the peak times of parent drop-offs and pick-ups.
Trip Generation
Similar to the parking demand estimates, weekday PM peak hour trip generation
estimates were based on our studies conducted in Redmond, WA and adjusted for the
vehicular mode splits expected in Evanston.
Weekday PM peak hour trip generation rates were derived from Redmond data for both
employees and parents. These rates are measured in trips per employee and trips per
child, respectively. The PM peak hour is defined consistent with the Institute of
Transportation Engineers (ITE) definition, which is the highest hour between 4:00 and
6:00 p.m. This is the time period during which the adjacent street traffic is assumed to
be at its peak. Based on the Redmond data, the weekday PM peak hour trip generation
rates were 0.25 trips per employee (employee trips only, 0% entering/100% exiting), and
0.67 trips per child (parent pick-up trips only, 53% entering/47% exiting). The Redmond
trip generation data was factored by the Evanston mode splits as discussed previously
under parking demand.
Table 2 summarizes the resulting weekday PM peak hour trip generation estimate for
the Bright Horizons Evanston project. More detailed calculations are included in
Attachment B.
Table 2
PM Peak Hour Trip Generation – Bright Horizons Evanston
Trip Type Total Trips Trips Entering Trips Exiting
Employee Trips 6 0 6
Parent Pick-Up Trips 144 76 68
Total = 150 76 74
As shown in Table 2, the proposed Bright Horizons Evanston facility is estimated to
generate 150 weekday vehicular PM peak hour trips (76 entering, 74 exiting). A majority
of these trips are parents picking up children, and would be split between the adjacent
surface parking lot and the parking garage depending on where the parents prefer to
pick-up their children. With these trips divided between the two separate parking
locations, we would expect an average of less than 1 vehicle entering and 1 vehicle
exiting per minute at each location during the PM peak hour.
It should be noted that the trip generation estimates shown above do not account for
credit for trips from previous entitlements (prior uses in the same building). Therefore,
some or all of these trips may not be “new” trips to the transportation system.

Ordinance 81-O-11: Responsible Pet Ownership
For Introduction
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
From: W. Grant Farrar, Corporation Counsel
Subject: An Ordinance Amending Title 9, Chapter 4, “Dogs, Cats, Animals and
Fowl” to add a new Section, “Responsible Pet Ownership”
Date: November 8, 2011
Recommended Action:
The Human Services Committee recommends adoption of Ordinance 81-O-11, as
amended.
Funding Source:
N/A
Summary:
Ordinance 81-O-11 amends Title 9, Chapter 4, “Dogs, Cats, Animals and Fowl” to add a
new Section, “Responsible Pet Ownership” to address residents who repeatedly violate
City ordinances regulating domestic animals. Subsection “A” defines a problem pet-
owner. Subsection “B” sets forth the hearing process for designating a person as a
problem pet-owner. Subsection “C” addresses the due-process requirement of notice,
which will be in accordance with the notice requirements already established in the
Administrative Adjudication chapter of the City Code. The subsection adds two
additional notice requirements, which are: (1) the citation must detail the names,
descriptions, and license numbers of the animals; and (2) a summary of the
consequences of a problem pet-owner designation. Subsection “D” allows for pre-
hearing confinement of all of the owner’s animals. Lastly, Subsection “E” addresses the
ramifications of the designation as a “problem pet owner”; namely a two-year bar on pet
ownership by the problem pet-owner within the City.

For City Council Meeting of January 9, 2012 Items O1 – O5
Business of the City by Motion; Great Merchant Grants Program
For Action
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
From: Steve Griffin, Community & Economic Development Director
Nancy Radzevich, Economic Development Manager
Johanna Nyden, Economic Development Coordinator
Subject: Applications for the 2012 Evanston Great Merchants Grant Program.
Date: December 29, 2011
Summary:
Staff has received eight applications for the 2012 Fiscal Year for the Evanston Great
Merchants Grant Program (formerly the Neighborhood Business District Improvement
Program) from the following:
• Central Street Business Association
• Central Street East Business Association
• Chicago-Dempster Merchants Association
• Dr. Hill Business Association
• Howard Street Business Association
• Main Street Merchants Association
• Evanston West End Business Association
• Evanston West Village Business Association
These include a range of business district projects and programmatic activities to be
completed during the 2012 fiscal year. This memo provides a brief overview of the
requirements and eligibility of the program and summarizes the requests that were
submitted.
Discussion:
Evanston’s Great Merchants Grant Program is designed to provide small grants, up to
$9,000, to Evanston’s business/merchant associations. The basic requirements are as
follows:
• Eligible applicants are established business districts with a FEIN #.
• Eligible activities include: 1) Business Support and Retention Activities; 2)
Enhancement of the Physical Environment; 3) Neighborhood Promotion; and 4)
Community Events.
Memorandum
471
Page 2 of 3
• Approved applicants are reimbursed for approved expenses following proof of
expenditure.
As per the Great Merchant’s Grant program application, the applicants are:
• Required to solicit at least three quotes for goods/services, including at least one
quote from an Evanston-based business.
• Encouraged to work together on solicitation of quotes on common goods and
services to try to aggregate spending for cost savings.
Although the Program requires three bids, the applicants were not required to provide
those at the time of submission of their application. However, the three
quotes/estimates are expected to be provided by the applicant prior to award of any
funding, unless the three bid/quotation requirement is waived by City Council.
To date, Staff has received eight applications for a total $58,430 in requested grant
funding. The approved 2012 Fiscal Year Budget allocates $147,000 to business district
improvements, of which $72,000 is for the Great Merchant Grants program and $75,000
for the Façade Improvement program.
There are several noteworthy items regarding the submissions for fiscal year 2012
funding:
• Four merchant groups requested funding for the creation and/or maintenance of
their business/merchant associations website. Staff recommends providing equal
funding to each district with the express purpose that these groups will work together
to identify a single website contractor to work for all these groups in order to
potentially provide some cost savings.
• Additional applications will be forthcoming in early 2012:
o Two organizations have emerged representing portions of the Central Street
Central Street corridor. At the time of the drafting of this memorandum, the
groups had not finalized their joint submission to the Economic Development
Committee for a Great Merchant Grant. These groups were afforded an
extension into the early part of 2012.
o At the December 1, 2011 Economic Development Committee meeting, the
West End Business Association asked the Committee for a continuation of the
discussion of their grant application in order to allow the association to address
concerns that Committee members had their original submission. It is expected
that this discussion with be taken up again at the January 25, 2012 Economic
Development Committee meeting.
Agenda Items O1 through O5 which follow this memo include Economic Development
Committee and Staff recommendations for each of the five (5) applications that have
been voted out of the Committee and copies of the submissions from those
organizations, which include the application and the business association/district
membership list.

Representatives from the five Associations have been advised to be present at the

information regarding their grant applications.

For City Council Meeting of January 9, 2012 Item O1
Business of the City by Motion: Great Merchant Grant for Chicago-Dempster
Merchants Assoc.
For Action
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
From: Steve Griffin, Community & Economic Development Director
Nancy Radzevich, Economic Development Manager
Johanna Nyden, Economic Development Coordinator
Subject: Recommendation for the Chicago-Dempster Merchants Association’s
Application for the Evanston Great Merchants Grant Program
Date: December 29, 2011
Recommended Action:
Staff and the Economic Development Committee recommend to City Council approval
of a Great Merchant Grant in the amount of $9,000 to the Chicago-Dempster Merchants
Association for Fiscal Year 2012 projects, described in detail below. This
recommendation is contingent upon the CDMA providing Staff the required additional
estimates for approved work.
Funding Source:
The Economic Development Fund’s Business District Improvement Fund (Account:
5300.65522). The approved 2012 Fiscal Year Budget allocated a total of $175,000 to
this account, with no more than $72,000 of that funding being allocated to the Great
Merchant Grants Program.
Summary:
CDMA requested funding for six projects, as follows:
Activity1 Amount
District planter plantings $1,500.00
Purchase and Installation of CDMA Banners $2,200.00
Young Evanston Artists (YEA) Banners $1,400.00
Advertising for Downtown Evanston Sidewalk Sale $1,500.00
1 See attached application for detailed descriptions of the proposed activities
Memorandum
474
Page 2 of 2
Co-Op Advertising through the North Shore Convention Visitor’s Bureau $1,000.00
Purchase and Installation of Snowflakes $1,650.00
Total Request $9,250.00
All of the proposed projects are eligible activities under the “Neighborhood Promotion”
and “Enhancement of Physical Environment” Project Eligibility Criteria for projects, as
outlined in the application guidelines. In total, the CDMA requested funding of $9,250,
however, the 2012 Program Guidelines limits the grant awards to $9,000. Staff and the
Economic Development Committee recommend that all of the requested activities by
CDMA be funded, but that a reduction of $250 be applied to the co-op advertising, in
order to keep the total request within $9,000.
The application was found to be incomplete due to the fact that CDMA has not yet
solicited multiple quotes for the proposed project. Staff recommends that the grant
award be conditional upon receipt of three quotes for the goods and services, in
accordance with the program guidelines. The submitted application with the supporting
documentation is attached immediately following this memorandum.
Legislative History:
At the December 1, 2011 Economic Development Committee meeting, the Committee
voted 7-0 to recommend the approval of this grant award to the City Council.

The objective of our Association is to create a costumer friendly environment that will be conductive to an active business district. The ambiance
created by planted pots and colorful dynamic banners contributes to the above. It is also the Association's intention to assist merchants promote
the area and their businesses by subsidizing cooperative advertising in a variety of media.
The programs mentioned above, which help create a vibrant business district, would also seem to contribute to a business wanting to be located in
the district.
The CDMA's function is to provide, on a much smaller scale, the promotional and coordination of activities for our District as Downtown Evanston
does for it's area.
As an Association we are not, other than anecdotally, privy to sales information nor do we count visitors. We do get a sense of whether business
owners are upbeat and believe that the CDMA efforts affect their attitudes.

For City Council Meeting of January 9, 2012 Item O2
Business of the City by Motion: Great Merchant Grant for Dr. Hill Business Assoc.
For Action
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
From: Steve Griffin, Community & Economic Development Director
Nancy Radzevich, Economic Development Manager
Johanna Nyden, Economic Development Coordinator
Subject: Recommendation for the Dr. Hill Business Association application for the
Evanston Great Merchants Grant Program
Date: December 29, 2011
Recommended Action:
Staff and the Economic Development Committee recommend City Council approval of a
Great Merchant Grant in the amount of $9,000 to the Dr. Hill Business Association
(DHBA) for Fiscal Year 2012 projects, described in detail below.
Funding Source:
The Economic Development Fund’s Business District Improvement Fund (Account:
5300.65522). The approved 2012 Fiscal Year Budget allocated a total of $175,000 to
this account, with no more than $72,000 of that funding being allocated to the Great
Merchant Grants Program.
Summary:
Dr. Hill Business Association requested funding for three projects, as follows:
Activity1 Amount
Maintenance of the Dr. Hill Sculpture $2,480.00
Installation of Plantings for Planters throughout district $3,520.00
Event – “Dogs on Parade” $3,763.00
Total Request $9,763.00
The proposed projects are eligible activities under the “Neighborhood Promotion” and
“Enhancement of Physical Environment” Project Eligibility Criteria for projects, as
outlined in the application guidelines. Staff found this submission to be complete.
1 See attached application for detailed descriptions of the proposed activities
Memorandum

Page 2 of 2
DHBA was not required to obtain multiple quotes for landscaping work because they
utilize Landscape Concepts, the landscape company that the City currently utilizes for
landscape work. Landscape Concepts had been previously identified by the City as the
lowest responsible and responsive bidder for planter landscape work in Evanston.
Although the DHBA has requested funding of $9,763, the 2012 Program Guidelines
limits the grant awards to $9,000. Staff recommends reducing the funding of the “Dogs
on Parade” event to $3,000, in order to comply with the program grant limitations. In
reviewing the expenses associated with this event, Staff believes that some of the work
related to “staffing” this event could potentially be fulfilled by volunteers. Additionally,
the costs associated with the distribution of event information could be accomplished
through the Web and other lower cost methods.
The submitted application and supporting documentation is attached immediately
following this memorandum.
Legislative History:
At the December 1, 2011 Economic Development Committee meeting, the Committee
voted 7-0 to recommend the approval of this to the City Council.

This years budget maintains the now existing garden and planters but also pushes and continues the "rebranding" effort begun in 2011. In addition
to the continued rebranding three events are being discussed & planned for 2012: "Evanston's West Side Story IV", "Dogs on Parade", & "Bridezilla"
"Evanston's West Side Story IV" is planned for Arts Week and is a neighborhood Open House of all the local artist and businesses. The Three
Previous Times this event was held were a great sucess. "Dogs on Parade" will introduce the new "Dogcentric" Businesses in the neighborhood
along with the numerous photographers & videographers at work in the "Arts District."
"Bridezilla" will continue to promote the photographers & videographers specializing in "wedding" work and also include the pastry chefs and
caterers, clothing designers and "Now We're Cooking" and "Excel Lofts" Event Spaces. All Three Events will draw in clients from outside the "Arts
District" Not necessarily familiar with all the varied types of business it offers.
The rebranding effort and three planned events will serve to increase communication among the businesses in The Arts District thereby increasing
membership and dues. They will also bring visitors to the events not previously familiar with the district and likely increase sales of the
"Dogcentric" and "Wedding-centric" businesses while other businesses gain exposure. Additionally the events may encourage visitors to consider
"The Arts District" as a good place to locate their business thereby reducing existing vacancy and increasing the possibility of more consumer
services on Simpson Street.

For City Council Meeting of January 9, 2012 Item O3
Business of the City by Motion: Great Merchant Grant for Evanston West Village
Business Assoc.
For Action
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
From: Steve Griffin, Community & Economic Development Director
Nancy Radzevich, Economic Development Manager
Johanna Nyden, Economic Development Coordinator
Subject: Recommendation for the Evanston West Village Business Association’s
Application for the Evanston Great Merchants Grant Program
Date: December 29, 2011
Recommended Action:
Staff and the Economic Development Committee recommend City Council approval of a
Great Merchants Grant in the amount of $9,000 to the Evanston West Village Business
Association (EWVBA) for Fiscal Year 2012 projects, described in detail below. This
recommendation is contingent upon the EWVBA providing Staff the required additional
estimates for approved work.
Funding Source:
The Economic Development Fund’s Business District Improvement Fund (Account:
5300.65522). The approved 2012 Fiscal Year Budget allocated a total of $175,000 to
this account, with no more than $72,000 of that funding being allocated to the Great
Merchant Grants Program.
Summary:
EWVBA requested funds for a single project: a promotional merchant booklet. This
project is intended to better showcase the Evanston West Village businesses and
events and activities hosted by the business district. The booklet will highlight the
unique locally owned businesses in the area, which are not as visible as the franchises
at the corner of Dodge and Dempster. The proposed project is an eligible
advertising/marketing activity under the “Neighborhood Promotion” Project Eligibility
Criteria for projects, as outlined in the application guidelines.
The EWVBA’s submission to the Economic Development Committee includes a request
that if the final project cost for the promotional booklet is less than $9,000, any
remaining funds from this project be applied toward the 2012 district event known as
“Makin’ it Happen Festival”. Staff finds this acceptable, per the guidelines of the
Memorandum
498
Page 2 of 2
program, and recommends that this reallocation of funding be permitted if there are
funds remaining after the marketing booklet is completed and only after EWVBA
submits a description of how such funding will be used, to assure that the specific
task(s) to be funded are consistent with the 2012 program guidelines.
The application was found to be incomplete due to the fact that EWVBA has not yet
solicited multiple quotes for the proposed project. Staff recommends that the grant
award be conditional upon receipt of three quotes, as per the program guidelines. The
submitted application with supporting documentation is attached immediately following
this memorandum.
Legislative History:
At the December 1, 2011 Economic Development Committee meeting, the Committee
voted 7-1 to recommend the approval of this grant to the City Council. Member-at-
Large Daniel Mennemeyer was the dissenting vote on this matter.

The Evanston West Village Association has become a cohesive and structured group committed to promoting businesses of the West Village and in
doing so will help to improve the economic health of the area. The merchant's book we have planned will help to promote not only who we are
but where we are.
The merchant's book will contain profiles of area businesses which can be used to market the unique kind of businesses and services that the West
Village has to offer.
The booklet will highlight the unique locally owned businesses in the area, which are not as visible as the franchises at the corner of Dodge and
Dempster. The idea would be to draw more small, independently owned businesses into the area so that Evanston West Village becomes a
destination for shopping and services.
We are planning a Holiday Walk, December 3-4, 2011 in which participating businesses will be able to track in two ways, either through sales on
those days or through sign in sheets at which point they can compare new contacts to existing mailing lists. The merchant's book can be tracked in
the same way upon it delivery to Evanston residents and surrounding locations.

Assoc.
For Action
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
From: Steve Griffin, Community & Economic Development Director
Nancy Radzevich, Economic Development Manager
Johanna Nyden, Economic Development Coordinator
Subject: Recommendation for the Howard Street Business Association’s
Application for the Evanston Great Merchants Grant Program
Date: December, 29 2011
Recommended Action:
Staff and the Economic Development Committee recommend City Council approval of a
Great Merchant Grant in the amount of $7,000 to the Howard Street Business
Association (HSBA) for Fiscal Year 2012 projects, described in detail below.
Funding Source:
The Economic Development Fund’s Business District Improvement Fund (Account:
5300.65522). The approved 2012 Fiscal Year Budget allocated a total of $175,000 to
this account, with no more than $72,000 of that funding being allocated to the Great
Merchant Grants Program.
Summary:
HSBA requested funds for three projects, as follows:
Activity1 Amount
Spring/Fall Planting $1,870.00
Website Development $3,000.00
Replacement of Tree lights to LED Lights $4,130.00
Total Request $9,000.00
The submission was found to be complete. The HSBA did not have to obtain multiple
quotes for the lighting project because this vendor had been identified within the past 12
months as the lowest bidder for the tree lighting project. Since the HSBA has proposed
to utilize the same vendor to maintain the existing lights, the vendor is providing a
1 See attached application for additional detail on these activities
Memorandum
507
Page 2 of 2
discount to the HSBA. Further, multiple quotes were not required for the plantings
along Howard Street because HSBA is utilizing the landscaping vendor identified by the
City as the lowest responsive and responsible bidder for similar work associated with
maintenance of planters in business districts in Evanston. The submitted application
and supporting documentation is attached immediately following this memorandum.
All of the proposed projects are eligible activities under the “Neighborhood Promotion”
and “Enhancement of Physical Environment” Project Eligibility Criteria for projects, as
outlined in the application guidelines. Staff recommends funding for the projects as
follows:
• Planting: ($1,870.00)
• LED Light Replacement: ($4,130.00)
• Coordinated Website development : ($1,000)
As discussed in the Great Merchant Grant cover memorandum to the City Council,
dated December 29, 2011, staff recommends that the four associations that requested
funding for website work collectively pool funds to identify a single contractor that will
meet their individual district needs for website development. Based on Staff’s belief that
there will be some economies of scale in consolidating these tasks, staff recommends
that the HSBA be awarded $1000.00 toward this coordinated project to address HSBA’s
specific website needs.
Legislative History:
At the December 1, 2011 Economic Development Committee meeting, the Committee
voted 7-0 to recommend the approval of this grant to the City Council.

The web site will help provide a forum for the businesses to engage in cooperative strategies to encourage a lively and healthy economic, social
and cultural environment. In today's busy times, the web is one of the best ways to interact business owner to business owner and business owner
to customer.
Both the planters and lighting show the desirability of locating in our area. They evoke an atmosphere of vibrancy and interest to potential
business and customers alike.
The project funds will provide proof to our business owners that our collaborative efforts can empower and support us all. This in tun will attract
other businesses to join our efforts.
At this point in our nascent organization, relative success could be tracked by membership growth in the Howard Street Business Association.

We also use funds to update our web site and we also had a new street banner designed and printed.

The Coupon Book attracts the visitors to our district during the Custer Fair as well as entices local residents to return to our stores or discover new
stores. The updated web site is more interactive and allows people to sign up fora newsletter. The event/sale listing component has been made
easier for businesses to enter their own information.
We plan to expand the functionality of the web site to include a section for prospective businesses with links to the City new business support site.
We saw an increase in people signing up for the newsletter after the 2011 Custer Fair. We now need a dedicated person to interact with
membership about using the web site to publish the electronic newsletter. We should see an increase in newsletter subscriptions and concomitant
increase in response to special offers only made available via the newsletter.
Last year at the Custer Fair the Fair raffled off an iPad and part of that process enabled fairgoers to sign up for emails from the Main Street
Merchants. The raffle registration was also the point of distribution for the coupon book. We will do the same this year and the merchants will
keep track of the returned coupons.
