TOWN COUNCIL ACTION REPORT

November 17, 2016

Resolution Waiving the Formal Bidding Process and Authorizing the Purchase of Metal Tree Grates for Trees Located in the Area of Uptown Circle from Urban Accessories in the Amount of $25,459 and Approval of Associated Budget Adjustment PREPARED BY: Wayne Aldrich, Director of Public Works REVIEWED BY: Mark R. Peterson, City Manager Doug Damery, Parks and Recreation Director Joe Tulley, Uptown Manager BUDGET IMPACT: A budget adjustment will be necessary for the purchase of

these tree grates in the amount of $25,459.00 from Line Item 001-1040-413.25-60 of the Uptown Fund.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approval ATTACHMENTS: Proposed Resolution; Picture of Existing Tree Installation With

Rock Surfacing; Picture of Prototype Grate Installed in Uptown Circle; Quotation from Urban Accessories

BACKGROUND The original design for the trees within and near the Uptown Circle included a concrete ring at the base of each tree with the interior of the tree ring surfaced with a colored granite rock (see attached picture). The rock surface was intended to allow water to penetrate to the tree roots while providing an acceptable surface for pedestrians. The granite rock surface has become problematic and requires frequent maintenance to keep the rock inside the tree rings and to replenish the rock when it is depleted. The rock is also thrown into the water feature on occasion, which generates the need for further maintenance.

Several years after the original Uptown streetscape was completed, when the landscaping plan for the area adjacent to the Uptown Station project was developed, this situation was resolved by the installation of a tree grate specifically selected by the landscape architect. These grates were installed immediately after the trees were planted and have been relatively maintenance free.

There are 11 existing locations within the circle and 4 locations around the perimeter of the circle that do not currently have tree grates. Town staff has been concerned that retrofitting the tree grates in these locations, where the trees have been established for several years, could result in damage to the existing trees. Based on these concerns, the Town’s Parks Maintenance and Public Works staff recently installed a prototype tree grate at an existing location in the Uptown Circle A) to determine if the tree would be compromised due to the amount of root removal necessary and B) to see that the tree grate installation would physically work as a retrofit.


DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS Parks and Recreation staff has determined that the prototype tree grate can be installed without undue damage to the existing trees, notwithstanding the need to remove some amount of the tree roots. The specially fabricated tree ring was installed with little difficulty and the overall results have been positive. A picture of the installed tree ring is attached.

Town staff recommends purchasing 18 metal tree grates for 11 trees in the circle, 4 trees around the circle perimeter and 3 grates for future trees to be planted with the “One Uptown on the Circle” project.

A quote has been solicited from Urban Accessories for 18 tree grates and associated mounting brackets. As this custom tree grate matches the other grates installed in Uptown and is only available through this manufacturer, Urban Accessories is considered a sole source supplier and no other quotes were solicited.

Town staff recommends accepting the quote of $25,459.00 for the tree grates. The grates will be installed by the Town’s Park Maintenance Division and the Public Works Sewer Division. As the installation of these tree grates matches the aesthetics of the other trees in the Uptown and will significantly reduce the maintenance efforts, Town staff recommends approval.

RESOLUTION NO. ________

Resolution Authorizing the Purchase of Atlas Filter Replacement Parts from Natatorium Consulting Services of Carlisle, Ontario, Canada in the amount of $23,052 for Fairview Family Aquatic Center PREPARED BY: Pamela S. Reece, Deputy City Manager REVIEWED BY: Mark R. Peterson, City Manager Doug Damery, Parks and Recreation Director BUDGET IMPACT: Funds for the project are budgeted in 001-8530-451.26-10

STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approval ATTACHMENTS: Proposed Resolution; Natatorium Consulting Services

Proposal

BACKGROUND The Fairview Family Aquatic Center was renovated in 1998 and serves over 65,000 visitors each season. At the conclusion of the 2016 season, Park Maintenance staff performed their standard property and equipment maintenance procedures to prepare the facility for the winter and determine what work should be accomplished prior to the 2017 summer season.

After beginning work on the first filter, it was determined that immediate rehabilitation will be required and staff expects that the second filter is in worse condition. In an attempt to locate needed filter replacement parts, staff learned that the filters installed in 1998 are no longer serviced in the United States. Further, only one vendor has been located in North America that is able to coordinate the acquisition of necessary parts from a manufacturer in South Africa.

Staff considered an alternate plan whereby the filters would be replaced with new equipment by a manufacturer supporting such equipment. However, replacement of the filters is a significant capital expenditure of approximately $300,000. Due to the scarcity of the replacement parts, staff will be developing a funding strategy for complete replacement in the Community Investment Plan and budget for this significant expense in future years.

In the meantime, staff believes that rebuilding both filters with new parts will delay the need to replace the filters for approximately 3 – 5 years.


DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS Upon locating a vendor in Canada that is capable of coordinating the shipping and delivery of parts for the Atlas filters, staff entered into discussions with the vendor, Natatorium Consulting Services, of Carlisle, Ontario, Canada. Natatorium Consulting Services can acquire the necessary parts from their South African manufacturer to rebuild both filters. Upon Council approval, parts will be ordered and staff will complete the filter rebuild this winter in preparation for May 2017 pool opening. Any extra parts will be held by Park Maintenance in the event the filters require service.


A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE PURCHASE OF ATLAS FILTER REPLACEMENT PARTS FROM NATAORIUM CONSULTING SERVICES OF CARLISLE, ONTARIO, CANADA IN THE AMOUNT OF $23,052 FOR FAIRVIEW FAMILY AQUATIC CENTER WHEREAS, the Town of Normal is a home rule unit of local government with authority to legislate in matters concerning its local government and affairs; and WHEREAS, the filter systems at the Fairview Family Aquatic Center are in need of rehabilitation; and WHEREAS, Natarorium Consulting Services, which is located in Ontario, Canada, is the sole vendor in North America who can acquire and deliver the replacement parts that are compatible with existing filter systems; and WHEREAS, Natarorium Consulting Services has supplied the Town with a quote of $23,052 for the replacement parts; and WHEREAS, it is in the best interests of the health, safety, and welfare of the citizens of Normal to waive the formal bidding process and purchase Atlas filter replacement parts from Natarorium Consulting Services. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE PRESIDENT AND BOARD OF TRUSTEES FOR THE TOWN OF NORMAL, ILLINOIS:

Resolution Authorizing Execution of an Intergovernmental Agreement with the City of Bloomington, McLean County and the Ecology Action Center for Solid Waste Management Services PREPARED BY: Wayne Aldrich, Director of Public Works REVIEWED BY: Mark R. Peterson, City Manager BUDGET IMPACT: Funding to support this agreement is included in Line Item

001-7025-432.30-40 of the Waste Removal Fund. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approval ATTACHMENTS: Proposed Resolution, Proposed Agreement

BACKGROUND In 1991 the Town, McLean County, and the City of Bloomington adopted an Integrated Solid Waste Management Plan (ISWMP) to fulfill requirements of the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA). This plan is updated and reported to the IEPA every five years. There are three key elements of implementation to this plan: 1) waste source reduction, 2) recycle and reuse, and 3) disposal in landfills. The Illinois Solid Waste Management Planning and Recycling Act requires that Illinois counties administer a solid waste management program to reduce waste and recycle 40% of the waste generated. When the ISWMP was first adopted, the implementation was managed by a County Solid Waste Coordinator, who was compensated from funds generated by a host fee placed on waste disposed at the local McLean County landfill. From 1998 through 2004, the Town was party to an intergovernmental agreement with McLean County, the City of Bloomington and the McLean County Regional Planning Commission, through which the Commission provided all management services including solid waste reduction and recycling education programs after the County Solid Waste Coordinator position was eliminated. The Commission, in turn, subcontracted with the Ecology Action Center (EAC) to provide the education programs. Since 2004, the Ecology Action Center was assigned all duties that had previously been provided by the Commission in addition to the educational services. To date, all payments for the services of the EAC have been made by McLean County from revenues generated from host fees and deposited into the McLean County Solid Waste Fund. Past agreements have included provisions for the EAC program services to be funded jointly by McLean County, the City of Bloomington and the Town if the McLean County Landfill is closed resulting in the loss of host fees. As the current agreement will expire on December 31, 2016, the Ecology Action Center has prepared a new 3-year contract for consideration by the City, Town and County.


DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS The Ecology Action Center is proposing a first year (2017) program cost of $105,000. This includes an increase in program cost based on the average Cost of Living increase (COLA) for 2015 and 2016. The proposed agreement allows a maximum 3% annual cost of living adjustment for the remaining two years. The proposed fees shown in the table below are calculated based on the maximum 3% increase. It is anticipated the McLean County Landfill will close within the term of this agreement, which will result in the significant loss of revenue to the McLean County Solid Waste Fund. This agreement proposes the City, Town and County will collectively assume funding responsibility for the EAC program services as follows, based on population: Local Government Percentage 2017 2018 2019 Town of Normal 31% $ 32,550 $ 33,527 $ 34,532 City of Bloomington 45% $ 47,250 $ 48,668 $ 50,128 County 24% $ 25,200 $ 25,956 $ 26,735 Total 100% $105,000 $108,150* $111,395* *Estimate includes the maximum COLA increase of 3% in 2018 and 2019 as allowed by Section D (1) of the proposed agreement. In practice, this increase is normally less. All services to be provided by the Ecology Action Center by this proposed agreement are listed in the attached Appendix A. The McLean County Solid Waste Technical Committee has endorsed this agreement and recommends that all three local governments approve it. This agreement was approved by the McLean County Board at its November 15, 2016 meeting and is scheduled to be considered by the City of Bloomington Council at its November 28, 2016 meeting.


A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION OF AN INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT WITH THE CITY OF BLOOMINGTON, McLEAN COUNTY, AND THE ECOLOGY ACTION CENTER FOR SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT SERVICES

WHEREAS, the Town of Normal is a home rule unit of local government with authority to legislate in matters concerning its local government and affairs; and

WHEREAS, it is in the best interests of health, safety, and welfare of the citizens of Normal to authorize execution of an intergovernmental agreement for solid waste management services.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE PRESIDENT AND BOARD OF TRUSTEES AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION ONE: That the President is hereby authorized to execute an intergovernmental agreement for solid-waste-management services with the City of Bloomington, McLean County, and the Ecology Action Center employment agreement, A copy of the intergovernmental agreement is attached to and incorporated in this resolution as Exhibit A.

SECTION TWO: That the Town Clerk is authorized and directed to attest to the signature of the

President on the intergovernmental agreement and to retain a fully-executed original in her office for public inspection. ADOPTED this _____ day of _____________, 2016. APPROVED: ____________________________________ President of the Board of Trustees of the Town of Normal, Illinois ATTEST: ______________________________________ Town Clerk (seal)

damage, loss or loss of use for any person, including natural persons and any other

legal entity or property of any kind (including, but not limited to, choices in action)

arising out of or in any way connected with the performance under this agreement,

for any costs, expenses, judgments, and attorney’s fee paid or incurred or paid for

on behalf of the City, Town, and/or County, and/or its agents and employees, by

insurance provided by the aforementioned government bodies.

e. evaluate effectiveness through key performance measures to include:

Leading Indicators

Goal: Visit 75% of eligible classrooms in McLean County, Bloomington, and Normal

for elementary school recycling and waste reduction education programs.

Reaching this target means directly engaging with approximately 1,500 students.

Goal: Visit 60% of public libraries within McLean County, Bloomington and Normal

and provide a summer reading program on recycling and waste reduction topics.

Reaching this target means directly engaging with approximately 300 library

patrons.

Goal: Provide recycling and waste reduction presentations for 30 local groups or

approximately 750 individuals including civic groups, scouts, preschools, non-target

school groups, university classes. In practice the EAC provides these programs for

nearly 100% of those requesting the services.

Goal: Promote recycling and sustainable practices to direct audiences utilizing

social media channels including Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and YouTube with a

target of 100,000 interactions annually.

Goal: Provide and promote comprehensive online resources on recycling and

waste disposal for Bloomington, Normal, and McLean County with a target of 25,000

visits to these pages annually.

Lagging Indicator

As the main goals of the McLean County Solid Waste Program are to increase recycling

while increasing source reduction, the annual measurement and reporting of these

rates by the EAC can act as lagging indicators of the success of outreach efforts.

However, the value of this performance indicator is also limited by other factors

impacting recycling and waste generation rates, such as accessibility of recycling

programs and macroeconomic forces. While quantifying source reduction of

municipal solid waste is problematic, tracking recycling rates is much more reliable.

Per the 2012 Five Year Update to the McLean County Integrated Solid Waste

Management Plan, the county-wide recycling rate goal is currently set at 40%, which

will also serve as the EAC’s target for purposes of this indicator. The 2012 calculated

recycling rate was 36.5%. The 2017 McLean County Integrated Solid Waste

Management Plan is currently in development; it is anticipated that the recycling rate

goal will be increased as a result of the planning process.

APPENDIX C Demonstration of Need

Statutory Requirements

The Illinois Solid Waste Planning and Recycling Act of 1991 requires solid waste planning

by all Illinois counties with specific emphasis on cooperative agreements between local

units of government. Specific requirements of this act include:

creation and adoption of a county solid waste management plan to include a

recycling program;

designation of a recycling/solid waste coordinator to administer the program;

establishment of a target within the plan for increasing community-wide

recycling rates;

public education and notification programs to increase recycling;

provisions for compliance, including incentives;

review and updating of the solid waste plan every five years.

Benefit

There are significant global and local benefits from recycling, waste reduction, and

proper household hazardous waste disposal. Recycling of materials and waste

reduction conserve natural resources, reduce energy costs associated with extraction,

transportation, and processing of virgin materials, and reduce air and water pollution

emissions from avoided energy consumption. Source reduction and proper disposal of

household hazardous wastes are substantial factors in protecting local groundwater

and surface water supplies in addition to contributing to increased child safety at home

by reducing accidental exposure risks.

No less significant are the fiscal benefits from recycling; It is well established that

providing recycling services is less expensive than landfilling waste because of the

revenues realized when collected materials are sold as commodities. As volumes of

both waste landfilled (at a cost) and waste recycled (at a subsidized cost due to

commodity values) are impacted by education and outreach efforts, taxpayers

directly benefit from EAC’s services.

Cost Efficiency

The Ecology Action Center provides public outreach, education, and technical services

at a very cost-effective rate. The program staff are not only trained environmental

science professionals with a combined 50+ years of nontraditional education and

program coordination experience, but are extremely passionate and dedicated to

their work.

Due to the EAC’s 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization designation which allows for tax

deductions to donors, program cost savings can be realized through discounted or

donated goods and services which are not possible in the commercial sector. The

EAC’s offices and public facility are not only leased at a favorable rate from the Town

of Normal, but are extremely energy efficient and inexpensive to heat and cool with its

grant-funded geothermal retrofit and significant weatherization. These factors

combined result in a low overhead cost for EAC’s operations.

The roughly $100,000 annual contract costs include the following:

EAC staff time (including interns) comparable to approximately 1.5 FTE

including FICA/UI;

approximately 500 volunteer hours of labor annually worth $11,780;3

authorized travel reimbursement at IRS rates;

program supplies, printing, postage;

leveraging of additional services of public benefit through partnerships with

other nonprofit and for-profit partners;

advertising and promotions via traditional and cost-effective social media;

administrative overhead.

3 The estimated value of volunteer time for 2015 is $23.56 per hour.

APPENDIX D Ecology Action Center Highlights 1971-present

1971: One day recycling drive collecting newspapers, cans, and glass bottles leads to

formation of “Operation Recycle,” predecessor to the Ecology Action Center.

1971-1982: Recycling drives staffed by volunteers held every 4-7 weeks at three

locations in Bloomington and Normal; 200-300 tons collected annually. Operation

Recycle donates over $10,000 in profits from sales of recyclables for environmental

improvements in McLean County.

1983: Operation Recycling partners with Mid-Central Community Action to establish a

full time recycling center to increase recycling volumes and to train and employ lower

income individuals.

1985: Operation Recycle calls for creation of a municipal solid waste committee with

members appointed by Bloomington-Normal mayors.

1991: McLean County Board adopts McLean County Integrated Solid Waste

Management Plan (ISWMP) in accordance with Illinois Solid Waste Planning and

Recycling Act.

1990s: Bloomington and Normal take over residential recycling services.

2001: McLean County Regional Planning Commission sub-contracts Operation Recycle

to provide solid waste education services as part of McLean County Solid Waste

Program.

2004: Operation Recycle officially changes its name to the Ecology Action Center

(EAC). McLean County, Bloomington, and Normal contract the EAC to coordinate

administration and implementation of the McLean County Solid Waste Program,

including recycling and waste reduction education programs for Bloomington, Normal,

and McLean County to meet the requirements of the Illinois Solid Waste Management

Planning and Recycling Act.

2011: In partnership with Illinois Wesleyan University, EAC creates the “MEGA Recycling

Event,” which accepts non-traditional recyclables—electronics, textiles, clothing, plastic

garden pots, household batteries and CFLs—and also encourages recycling of these

materials at various locations in McLean County year-around.

2011-2012: EAC spearheads fundraising campaign to hold first-ever locally funded

Household Hazardous Waste Collection Event in McLean County, raising over $143,000

and $32,000 in-kind contributions. Over 160,000 pounds of hazardous materials were

collected from approximately 3,000 households.

2012: EAC holds first major central Illinois zero-waste event by implementing waste-

reduction strategies at its annual Illinois Sustainable Living and Wellness Expo. Less than

one bag of trash was generated for 4,300 event participants. For the first time the EAC

annual calculation of community-wide waste and recycling rates demonstrates a

significant drop in total waste generated (including recyclables) while also showing a

positive increase in overall recycling rates to 36.5%. The combination of simultaneous

source reduction and increased recycling is the ideal position.

2015: EAC holds first locally funded Household Hazardous Waste Collection under new

agreement with the City of Bloomington, Town of Normal, and McLean County which

provides the bulk of the funding for biennial HHW collection events for local residents.

2016: EAC launches process to create a new, more assertive 20-year solid waste

management plan.

August 2017 (anticipated): McLean County Landfill reaches capacity and begins

closure process.

A Resolution Authorizing the Execution of an Intergovernmental Agreement Concerning the McLean County Geographic Information System Consortium and Authorizing the Amendment and Termination of Prior Agreements PREPARED BY: Teri Legner, Director of Information Technology REVIEWED BY: Pamela S. Reece, Deputy City Manager Mark R. Peterson, City Manager BUDGET IMPACT: There is no immediate budget impact associated with approval

of this Resolution STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approval ATTACHMENTS: Proposed Resolution, 2016 IGA

BACKGROUND Prior to March, 2001, the Town of Normal, McLean County Regional Planning Commission, McLean County, City of Bloomington, City of Bloomington Township, and the Emergency Telephone System Board, were developing their own geographic information systems (GIS) but working collectively to share their data and expenses and to acquire resources, including hardware, software and aerial photos. In 2001, together they each approved an intergovernmental agreement formally providing for the development and maintenance of a Countywide geographic information system (McGIS). That agreement identified MCRPC as the lead, or coordinating, agency and remains in effect today. DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS This agreement served the parties well for several years. During this time, member agencies hired additional staff, developed their own expertise, acquired new and upgraded technology, and produced volumes of data to manage and share, not only with each other, but publicly as well. However, within the last 12-18 months, it became necessary for McGIS to reduce expenses as Recorder’s fees, one of its dedicated revenue sources, were declining and becoming insufficient. Member agencies were asked to increase their annual financial contributions to help offset the loss. Cost reduction measures included a reduction in staff and termination of a contract for technical support that the organization had with an outside vendor. In its place, County IT agreed to provide technical support and maintenance of the critical backend computer infrastructure without cost, in addition to the administrative services, such as payroll and benefits administration, that it was already providing for McRPC.


Further discussion of the situation indicated that even greater efficiencies could be achieved and overhead costs reduced if the County were to perform the lead, or coordinating, function in place of MCRPC. County and member agency staff, have tentatively agreed to this change and recommend approval of the Resolution. The purpose of the Resolution is as follows:

Amends the 2001 agreement to allow the parties to mutually consent to terminate it at any time. Provides for termination of that 2001 agreement. Authorizes execution a new intergovernmental agreement providing for the restructured McLean

County Geographic Information System Consortium (McGISC).

The new 2016 agreement provides for an organizational structure that clearly articulates roles and responsibilities for the members, a Policy Committee, the lead agency and a Consortium Coordinator, and includes a budget that is $175,000, which is 21.8% lower than that of the current FY. McLean County approved this transition on November 15. The City of Bloomington will consider the matter on November 28. Presuming the parties’ approvals, the transition will be effective January 1, 2017 consistent with the beginning of the County’s fiscal year.


A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION OF AN INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT CONCERNING THE McLEAN COUNTY GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEM CONSORTIUM AND AUTHORIZING THE AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF PRIOR AGREEMENTS

WHEREAS, the Town of Normal is a home rule unit of local government with authority to legislate in matters concerning its local government and affairs; and

WHEREAS, in 2001, the Town entered into the Intergovernmental Agreement for Countywide GIS Development and Maintenance in McLean County Illinois (“2001 IGA”); and

WHEREAS, the Town entered into the 2001 IGA with the following parties for the development and maintenance of a countywide geographic information system (“McGIS”): the McLean County Regional Planning Commission, McLean County, the City of Bloomington, Bloomington Township, and the Emergency Telephone System Board; and

WHEREAS, the parties seek to restructure the McGIS operations, to streamline procedures and achieve greater efficiencies; and

WHEREAS, this restructuring will require the execution of a new intergovernmental agreement (“2016 IGA,” attached as Exhibit 1) between McLean County, the City of Bloomington, and the Town, and the new agreement will replace the 2001 IGA; and

WHEREAS, because the parties are not identical between the two agreements, in order for the 2016 IGA to replace the 2001 IGA, that 2001 IGA first needs to be amended to allow for its termination, and then it needs to be terminated; and

WHEREAS, it is in the best interests of health, safety, and welfare of the citizens of Normal to (i) allow for the amendment and termination of the 2001 IGA and (ii) authorize execution of the 2016 IGA.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE PRESIDENT AND BOARD OF TRUSTEES AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION ONE: That the President of the Board of Trustees is authorized to execute an amendment to the 2001 IGA to allow for the mutual termination of that agreement.

SECTION TWO: That the President of the Board of Trustees is authorized to execute any instrument necessary for the termination of the 2001 IGA.

SECTION THREE: That the President of the Board of Trustees is authorized to execute the 2016 IGA.

SECTION FOUR: That the Town Clerk is directed to retain the executed documents under this resolution for public inspection. ADOPTED this _____ day of _____________, 2016.

An Ordinance Establishing Parking Restrictions on Shepard Road between Airport Road and Canyon Creek Road PREPARED BY: Ben McCready, Assistant to the City Manager REVIEWED BY: Mark R. Peterson, City Manager Gene Brown, City Engineer BUDGET IMPACT: N/A STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approval ATTACHMENTS: Proposed Ordinance

BACKGROUND At the March 21, 2016 meeting Town Council approved reimbursement of costs associated with constructing 500’ of Shepard Road east of Mondavi Lane to Canyon Creek Road in the Vineyards subdivision. This 500’ portion completes a section of Shepard Road that varies in width from five to three lanes of traffic and consists of curb and gutter concrete pavement. The street is designed to serve as a collector street and connects the developing Vineyards Subdivision to Airport Road before proceeding to the west. The remaining portion of Shepard Road from Canyon Creek Road to the east will not likely be constructed until the property east of the Vineyards subdivision is annexed and developed.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS The newly constructed pavement was designed and constructed consistent with standards for the Town’s collector streets. A collector street accommodates multiple lanes of traffic, providing space for stopping and turning movements so as not to conflict with traffic at intersecting streets or driveway entrances. As a matter of standard practice, the Town does not permit parking along its collector streets.

Given the increased utilization of this thoroughfare and development of the Vineyards Subdivision, staff recommends prohibiting parking on the north and south portion of Shepard Road between Airport Road and Canyon Creek Road. The abutting residential units have parking available in attached garages and access to on street parking located on several nearby residential streets. Permitting vehicles to park on the street would reduce the capacity of the roadway and adversely impact traffic flow.

The proposed ordinance will prohibit parking at all times on the north and south sides of Shepard Road between Airport Road and Canyon Creek Road.

ORDINANCE NO. _________

Motion to Authorize the Preparation of the 2016 Property Tax Levy Ordinance PREPARED BY: Andrew Huhn, Director of Finance REVIEWED BY: Mark R. Peterson, City Manager Pamela S. Reece, Deputy City Manager BUDGET IMPACT: The proposed levy will result in property tax revenue totaling

$12,174,800 in FY 2017-18. The Town’s property tax rate, including the Library, is expected to increase from $1.3755 to $1.4028 or 1.98%.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approval ATTACHMENTS: Summary of Proposed Tax Levy; Historical Data

BACKGROUND As proposed, the 2016 property tax levy will keep Normal’s municipal tax rate the lowest among the seven (7) largest cities in Central Illinois. The proposal involves a 1.98% increase in the tax rate, primarily to support funding Police and Fire pensions. The Town has no control over the cost of Police and Fire pensions. Even though pension plan funding levels are mandated by the State, the Town is obligated to provide the required funding level. Note that issues with funding levels for “first responder” pensions are common everywhere in the State of Illinois and across the country. Staff recommends that the Town continue to face its pension obligations squarely, even though some other institutions have opted to defer the responsibility for this issue. Given the rate increase to $1.4028 from $1.3755 as proposed, the owner of a $165,000 home will see a $13 increase in their Town property tax bill. The majority of this $13 increase will ensure that the Town continues to meet its obligation to responsibly fund its Police and Fire pension plans. The State’s “Truth in Taxation” statute requires that the Council meet at least 20 days prior to approving the property tax levy ordinance to determine the amount of the levy. Staff will submit a final levy recommendation for Council review and approval on December 19th. The Town, as well as all taxing jurisdictions, must submit their approved levy to the County by the last Tuesday in December, which is December 27, 2016. The law further requires that a comparison must be made to the previous year’s levy to determine the percent of increase. Given the proposed tax rate coupled with the estimated growth in assessed value, staff is projecting the total property tax levy (taxes collected) to increase by 5.77%. State law requires that if the annual proposed levy is more than 5% from the previous year, a truth in taxation process is triggered and the Town must publish a truth in taxation notice and conduct a public hearing. The notice will be published on December 8th and the hearing will be conducted on December 19th.


State law also requires a levy for outstanding G.O. Bonds and Special Service Area bonds (Shoppes at College Hills). This levy can be abated if funds are on hand for principal and interest payments. Even though it might be the intent of the taxing entity to abate this levy, it must be included. DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS The Town’s total property tax rate supports eight separate expenditure needs for the Town. Each need has changing requirements and impacts the total Town rate differently. The areas are listed below with a brief explanation of each:

1. General Fund Operational Levy - this levy is used to help support the Town’s primary operations. This includes Police, Fire, Inspections, Public Works, Parks and Recreation and Administrative Services. This levy has been kept at the same level as last year and has remained the same or lower since FY2005-06.

2. Police Pension Levy – this levy provides funding for the retirement benefits of sworn Police

personnel. An independent actuarial analysis is performed to determine the level of funding needed to support the current and anticipated retirement benefit of the Police personnel. Once that actuarial amount is known, the Town sets a levy amount sufficient to cover the needed funding.

3. Fire Pension Levy – this levy provides funding for the retirement benefits of Firefighters. It is calculated in the same manner as the Police Pension levy above.

4. Illinois Municipal Retirement Fund (IMRF) Levy – this levy provides for retirement benefits for non-

Police and Fire personnel at the Town. The levy covers the necessary, actuarially based, funding need for IMRF.

5. Social Security/Medicare Levy – similar to the IMRF levy, this levy provides for retirement benefits of non-Police and Fire personnel at the Town and covers the necessary funding for Social Security/Medicare benefits.

6. Library Levy – this levy is the primary revenue source of the Normal Public Library and is set at a level sufficient to support the operational needs of the library.

7. Debt Service Levies – these levies are used to pay principal and interest expenses associated with the Town’s General Obligation (GO) bond issues. However, it should be noted that staff intends to follow the Council’s past practice and recommend abatement (elimination) of the required property tax levies for all bond issues except the SSA Bond levy, which is only charged in the Shoppes at College Hills area. The SSA Bond levy will be partially abated in February of 2017.

8. Special Service Area Bond (SSA) – this levy is only assessed on the property owners of the “Shoppes at College Hills” if the sales tax revenue generated by those businesses is not sufficient to pay the annual debt service payment on the bonds.

Each area above is evaluated and a final overall tax levy is developed. Assessed Value The Town’s proposed tax rate is an estimate given the projected increase in the Town’s assessed value. The County Assessor’s office is projecting that the Town’s assessed valuation will increase by 3.71%, but it should be noted that this increase is subject to change given the outcome of the County’s Board of Review process. Any final changes to assessed values by the County Board of Review will impact the Town’s final tax rate calculation.


Based upon the estimated assessed valuation within the corporate limits of Normal, staff is projecting a total 2016 property tax rate (including Town and Library) of $1.4028. The 2015 tax rate was $1.3755. This projection assumes a 3.71% increase in assessed valuation which reflects the latest estimate from the McLean County Supervisor of Assessments. Actual assessed values will not be known until April 2017. Staff is recommending that the property tax levy for 2016 be established at $12,174,800 which represents a $663,800 (5.77%) increase over last year’s levy. As discussed earlier a truth in taxation notice will be required since the levy is projected to increase more than 5%. The truth in taxation notice will be published on December 8th and a public hearing will be conducted on December 19th. The next couple pages in this report illustrate the actual amounts for last year’s levy and rate compared to the proposed levy and rates for next year. It also shows the bond levy amounts as well as a history of the Town’s property tax rates going back to 1990.

Motion to Initiate a Zoning Text Amendment to Include Taproom With Class P Liquor License Within the List of Permitted Uses in M-1 Restricted Manufacturing PREPARED BY: Mercy Davison, Town Planner REVIEWED BY: Mark R. Peterson, City Manager Brian Day, Corporation Counsel Greg Troemel, Director of Inspections BUDGET IMPACT: N/A STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approval ATTACHMENTS: Proposed Amended Ordinance

BACKGROUND In September 2016, the Town Council approved an amendment to add a new “P” liquor license (“Taproom Liquor License”) to Sec. 4.10 of the Liquor Code (Ord. No. 5655). The amendment was intended to align the Town’s code with the State of Illinois license that permits beer manufacturers to make limited retail sales of beer both on-premise and off-premise. The purpose of these limited sales is generally to provide for sampling and other marketing endeavors.

The recently created “P” liquor license permits the following:

1. Limited hours: Sales of the beer is limited to 1:00pm - 10:00pm Monday through Thursday and from 1:00pm – 11:00pm on Friday and Saturday. These are the same limited hours that apply to a Class O-Limited Hours license.

2. Premises: The retail area must be segregated from the manufacturing area and may not

comprise more than 25% of the licensed premises. 3. Quantity: No more than three beer servings may be served to any customer for on premises

consumption in one day. A serving is a 16-ounce glass, a 12-ounce bottle, or a flight of 4 four-ounce glasses.

4. No Gaming: Video gaming is not permitted on the licensed premises. 5. Fee: The annual license fee is $500.

This license is limited only to those who possess a State-issued brewers license and is tied to a commercial premises. This license does not apply to homebrewers or other noncommercial situations. In


addition, the license allows a brewer to sell only the beer that is manufactured on the licensed premises; the brewer is not able to sell others’ beer or other alcoholic beverages. Currently, the only P license holder (White Oak Brewery) is located in an M-1 Restricted Manufacturing District. The permitted uses within this district do not include the type of limited taproom operation permitted by the P license. DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS Per Sec. 15.6-19 of the Zoning Code, the intent of the M-1 Restricted Manufacturing District is to provide for industrial uses with an absence of objectionable external effects in areas that are not suitable for this type of development by reason of topography, relative location, and adequate utility and transportation systems. Uses permitted within the M-1 district include manufacturing, storage, car and RV sales, plant nurseries, car washes, and more. Town staff believes that taproom operations permitted by the P license would be appropriate within the context of the existing permitted uses in M-1. Most importantly, the existing restrictions within the P license – limited hours of operation, limited square footage within the licensed premises, and limited amount of beer servings – will ensure that the added use will not significantly change the character of the M-1 district. Furthermore, the existing P license does not permit outdoor activities or events, which will further limit the impact the new use would have within M-1 districts. If a taproom is permitted within an M-1 district, the zoning code would require parking based on the different uses within the licensed premises. Specifically, the minimum parking would be assessed for the square footage attributed to the manufacturing area and separately for the taproom area. For these reasons, Town staff recommends that the Town Council initiate the zoning text amendment process to permit a taproom in the manner described above. If the Town Council initiates this zoning text amendment, it would go before the Planning Commission for a public hearing in January and return to the Town Council for final action later that month.
