From: Dan Hansen, City Engineer

Subject: IL-7 Channelization Phase II Design Engineering Services

Date: Wednesday, October 2, 2019

BACKGROUND/HISTORYAs discussed at the Committee of the Whole (COTW) Capital Improvement Plan (CIP)presentation and during project budget discussions for 2019, phase II design engineeringservices are needed for the IL-7 Channelization Project.

As part of the City’s continued efforts to address traffic issues, along with storm water andbeautification efforts, City staff is recommending phase II engineering be completed along IL-7from Lincoln Street to approximately Summit Drive. The IL-7 Channelization project would helpto address traffic congestion and storm water issues as well as help beautify the approximately3,700 foot long section of roadway. The project would include channelization along IL-7 (turnlane add), curb and gutter, storm sewer, sidewalk and landscaping.

Christopher Burke Engineering is projected to complete phase I work this winter that includesdata collection/surveys, drainage studies, intersection design studies, and traffic analysis. Anofficial public meeting was held to discuss with residents any concerns or questions. Thecomments received from this meeting will be taken into account during phase II design.

The services provided under this Task Order include phase II engineering services for theproject detailed above. The services to be provided as part of the contract will includesupplemental survey, plan preparation, utility and agency coordination and bidding assistance.

This project will be a good candidate for utilization of STP funding for construction. Thecompletion of Phase II Engineering Services would provide additional criteria points for grantselection, allowing for an 80/20 split (80% IDOT, 20% Lockport).

CITY OF LOCKPORT EAST 9TH STREET (IL ROUTE 7) ROADWAY IMPROVEMENTS

PHASE II ENGINEERING

Project Description The following represents the anticipated scope of work associated with Phase II Engineering for the improvement of East 9th Street (IL Route 7) from Lincoln Street to Summit Drive in the City of Lockport. This project will be developed in accordance with federal project development procedures since the City is planning to utilize federal funding for the construction of this project. As such, although the Phase II engineering effort will be locally funded, it will be coordinated through IDOT-Bureau of Local Roads (District 1) and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) for review and approval of the preparation of contract plans and specifications, culminating in IDOT authorizing for construction letting. East 9th Street (IL Route 7) is designated as FAP Route 0351, has a roadway classification of Other Principal Arterial and is a designated Class II Truck Route. The project limits include East 9th Street (IL Route 7), an IDOT jurisdiction roadway, from the intersection of Lincoln Street to east of Summit Drive, a length of approximately 3,800 feet. The typical existing roadway section within these limits is one through lane in each direction, undivided, with aggregate shoulders and auxiliary lanes at several intersections. The anticipated improvement includes widening this typical section to provide a continuous bi-directional center turn lane with curb and gutter and storm sewers for drainage throughout the length of the improvement. A portion of the project will involve reconstruction in order to flatten the existing steep super elevation. The existing average daily traffic (ADT) volume within the project limits is approximately 14,000 vehicles per day (VPD). The existing intersections at Lincoln Street, Garfield Avenue, Grandview Avenue, East 8th Street, East 7th Street (signalized), East 3rd Street, and Summit Drive are anticipated to remain basically in the current alignment with modifications to accommodate the required IDOT design vehicle, auxiliary turn lanes, and/or upgrades for ADA compliance (as required) based on existing sidewalks and crosswalks within the project area. The existing traffic signal at East 7th Street will be replaced with a new, modernized traffic signal, as the existing equipment is in conflict with proposed improvements. The new traffic signal will utilize detector loops and include standard (not decorative) mast arms, as directed by the City. Existing interconnect, if present, will be re-established as part of the new signal installation. Installation of a new interconnect will not be required, as directed by the City. This project is anticipated to require a permit from the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) due to wetland impacts. East 9th Street crosses over Milne Creek, just west of the East 8th Street intersection. Milne Creek is conveyed beneath East 9th Street via a triple concrete box culvert (3 @ 9’x6’) that is structure number 099-0273 within the IDOT database. Based on a review of FEMA mapping, Milne Creek has a designated Floodway and Floodplain. Per the IDOT Structure Master Report, this structure is listed as in good condition. Based on the Phase

I Engineering, no modifications or improvements to this structure are anticipated to be necessary for this project. North of East 7th Street, a 5’(W)x4’(H) concrete box culvert with IDOT structure number 099-0432 crosses East 9th Street (IL Route 7). This culvert will be replaced with a 5’x5’ precast reinforced concrete box culvert as part of the project. At each end of the culvert, the structure will have junction chambers that connect it to the existing downstream storm sewer system and the proposed upstream ditch enclosure culvert. The ditch is proposed to be enclosed due to steep side slopes adjacent to the roadway that are potentially unsafe and difficult to maintain. The City wishes to include design of water main replacement work in the Phase II Engineering effort, to retire portions of water main with a significant break history and minimize the chance of repairs being required soon after the roadway improvement. Based on information provided by the City, the existing water main, associated appurtenances and services within the public right-of-way will be removed where in conflict with proposed improvements and replaced from Lincoln Street to Grand View Avenue and from East 7th Street to Summit Drive. This project is anticipated to necessitate land acquisition (right-of-way, permanent easements and temporary construction easements), and all land acquisition efforts must follow the federal process. The land acquisition effort for this project will be completed as part of a separate agreement to be established upon finalization of the location and quantity of required rights-of-way and easements. The Phase I Project Development Report (PDR) has been submitted to IDOT and approval is anticipated in Fall 2019. This Scope of Services assumes that the geometrics, drainage and other aspects of the Phase I design will be approved by IDOT as they were submitted in June 2019. If significant and/or unforeseen changes to design aspects, environmental clearances are required by IDOT subsequent to the preparation of this Scope of Services, CBBEL reserves the right to amend this Scope of Services accordingly. It is estimated that completion of the Phase II Engineering effort will require approximately 18 months to complete, including review time by the City and IDOT for various submittals. The critical path for this project, as with most federally funded projects necessitating rights-of-way/easements, will be completion of all land acquisition efforts based on federal procedures as required by IDOT. As mentioned previously, the land acquisition effort for this project will be completed as part of a separate agreement.

Scope of Services To assist with timely completion of the required Phase II Engineering services, CBBEL has assembled a team of subconsultants and outside service companies to provide technical support in various aspects of the project. A summary of subconsultants and their proposed role in the project has been provided at the end of the Scope of Services. The separate proposals from each of these firms are attached and incorporated into this proposal. Based on our Project Understanding, the detailed Phase II Engineering scope of services includes the following: PART A. PHASE II ENGINEERING Task A1 – Data Collection and Field Review: This task includes collecting, examining, reviewing and evaluating any new or updated data to be utilized for the Phase II Engineering, which may include but not be limited to the following base information:

• Previous project information • Existing Public/Private Utility Information • City Utility Atlases • City GIS Data • City Record Roadway Plans • City Record Plans for Adjacent Site Developments • Existing Right-of-Way information (Plats) • Existing Traffic Signal Plans • Other Information

This task also includes site visits, field verification of topographic survey, photo documentation of the site, review of project documents and reports and existing sign survey. Task A2 – Supplemental Topographic Survey: CBBEL shall complete supplemental field survey to pick up additional survey details to facilitate the Phase II Engineering services. Recovery of Phase I horizontal and vertical control will be completed along performing additional topographic survey to pick up areas beyond the limits of the original survey work and/or areas that have been improved/modified subsequent to the prior survey. Survey information from this task will be combined with the topographic survey previously completed, to provide a comprehensive, seamless existing conditions base map for the design documents. We have budgeted one (1) day of field work by one (1) two-man survey crew and one (1) day of drafting for this task. Task A3 – PESA Response and Geotechnical Investigation: CBBEL will prepare a PEA Response to IDOT’s PESA that will serve as the basis for the IDOT Preliminary Site Investigation (PSI).

22

Page 4 of 11

Additionally, CBBEL will obtain geotechnical investigation analysis and reports for proposed roadway construction, utility improvements and structural improvements. Testing Service Corporation (TSC) will obtain ten (10) soil borings to a maximum depth of fifteen (15) feet below grade. One of the soil borings will be taken at the location of the proposed 5’x5’ box culvert crossing of East 9th Street. Pavement cores will be taken at seven (7) of the soil boring locations prior to drilling. The objectives of the geotechnical investigation are to explore soil conditions and provide recommendations for foundation, utility and pavement design in connection with the proposed improvements. East 9th Street (IL Route 7) is under IDOT jurisdiction and will require an IDOT permit to perform the field work. It has been our experience that it will take 6 to 8 weeks or more to get a permit from IDOT. The borings and cores located along East 9th Street will require lane closures. This task includes providing lane closures by a professional traffic control firm. The scope and associated manhour estimate is based on the assumption that TSC will be able to perform all borings and cores during weekdays (Monday through Friday) beginning no later than 8:00 AM and ending no sooner than 3:00 PM. The full scope of work by TSC is outlined in their separate proposal, including herein. Task A4 – Utility Coordination, Protection and Relocation Studies: CBBEL will coordinate with all known private utility companies within the project area, which will require preparing formal requests for their atlases or plans of their facilities within the project limits. This information will be drafted into the existing conditions plan and sent back to the utility companies for verification. CBBEL will also obtain field data and analyze cross sections to identify extent of utility impacts. Coordinate with private utilities to identify impacts and facilitate design and construction of relocations. Coordinate with City and other utility owners to identify impacts and facilitate design of required relocations. Task A5 – Drainage Design: CBBEL will prepare drainage design calculations and plans, specifications, and cost estimate for the proposed drainage improvements. Calculations to be completed include the design of storm sewer laterals and inlet spacing and the sizing of proposed pipes and culverts. All drainage items to be included in the plan preparation such as existing drainage removals, temporary drainage, proposed storm sewers, ditches, structures, and details are included within this plan preparation task. Generally, no detention design will be required, as the added impervious area is below the City Ordinance threshold for detention. However, there is one existing 18” RCP outlet near Lincoln Street that is considered sensitive to increased flow. Inline detention will be placed upstream of this outlet. Final drainage plan and profile design will be prepared for incorporation into the contract documents. This task includes all Phase II drainage design work, including preparation of drainage pre-final and final plans, specifications, and estimates and bid documents. This task will also include coordination with and submittal to the City of Lockport as needed to satisfy applicable City stormwater permitting requirements. The proposed plan

Page 5 of 11

does not affect the existing culverts or channel conveying Milne Creek under East 9th Street, so no IDNR-OWR permit for floodway construction has been included in this task. If the design of the crossing changes, IDNR-OWR permitting including design of compensatory storage volume facilities would be additional work beyond this scope of work. Task A6 – Traffic Signal Design: CBBEL will develop a traffic signal plan set for the removal and replacement of all the existing traffic signal equipment at the intersection of 9th Street (IL Route 7) at 7th Street. This task will include preliminary, pre-final and final plan submittals and bid documents.

Task A6.1: Base Sheet Preparation: CBBEL will develop the base sheets for the traffic signal plan sheets at a scale of 1” = 20’ from the previously acquired topographic survey and aerial information.

Task A6.2: Temporary Traffic Signal Installation Plan: We will prepare temporary traffic signal installation plans based on the Maintenance of Traffic plans and final roadway improvement plans. CBBEL will develop temporary installation plan sheets, temporary cable plan, temporary phase designation diagram, temporary emergency vehicle preemption sequence, and removal of the existing traffic signal equipment. Up to three (3) MOT Stages have been included in this task.

Task A6.3: Traffic Signal Modernization Plans: Traffic Signal Modernization plans will be developed using the base sheet information from Task A6.1. The traffic signal modernization plans will follow current IDOT District One design guidelines. The traffic signal modernization plan sheets will include traffic signal installation plan, proposed cable plan, traffic signal phasing diagram, vehicle detection details and notes, emergency vehicle preemption sequence, mast arm mounted street name signs, grounding details, electric service requirements, and schedule of quantities. Task A6.4: Specifications and Estimate: Technical specifications and an engineer’s opinion of probable construction cost will be prepared for each submittal. IDOT standard special provisions will be employed to the extent they apply.

Task A7 – Junction Chamber Design: CBBEL will prepare performance-based plans and specifications for three (3) junction chambers along East 9th Street. The Contractor will be required by the construction documents to prepare a signed and sealed structural design for each junction chamber for approval by the Engineer. One junction chamber is located on the south side of East 9th Street at approximately 53+70 and is needed to connect a proposed 5’ x 5’ concrete box culvert to an existing 60” x 48” CMP storm sewer and a proposed 24” RCP storm sewer. The second junction chamber is located on the north side of East 9th Street at approximately 54+20 and is needed to connect a proposed 5’ x 5’ concrete box culvert to a 14’ x 4’ box culvert and two small diameter RCP storm sewers.

Task A11 – Final Plans, Specifications and Estimate: The following tasks include the preparation of all plans, details, schedules, quantity calculations and cost estimates necessary to thoroughly depict the nature of the scope of the proposed improvements for the Final Plan milestone submittal. The task also includes review of agency Pre-Final review comments and preparation of comment dispositions for each agency reviewing milestone submittals. Task A12 – Permitting: CBBEL will prepare the necessary application and supporting materials and submit permit applications for the following permits that are anticipated to be required to facilitate project construction. Permit fees are not included in the estimated fees for each permit and it is assumed that the City will pay all permit fees directly to the agency requiring them.

Task A12.1 – IEPA NPDES Permitting: CBBEL will prepare a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) and Notice of Intent (NOI) associated with obtaining an IEPA NPDES permit for the project, as the disturbed area is anticipated to exceed 1 acre. Task A12.2 – USACE Wetland Impact Permit Application Permitting: CBBEL will prepare the USACE permit application to impact federally regulated Waters of the U.S./wetland areas associated with the roadway improvements. This permit application submittal will include the required exhibits, specifications, data and project information. This information will also be compiled and assembled for placement in a permit application package to the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency, if necessary. This task may require meeting with U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Illinois Environmental Protection Agency, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Illinois Department of Natural Resources, City and potentially other federal, state and local agencies to coordinate permitting activities.

For this task, we have assumed that the permit application can be processed as a Regional Permit 3 requiring less than one acre of wetland impact. However, it should be noted that the USACE can take discretionary authority over any proposed wetland impacts and require an Individual Permit. If the USACE determines that the application will be processed as an Individual Permit, a separate proposal will be required to cover the cost of additional services. Because the proposed project will require Waters of the U.S./wetland impacts associated with the enclosure of a regulated waterway, we recommend a pre-application meeting with the USACE to discuss the proposed project and obtain their concurrence that the proposed activity can be completed under the Regional Permit process. In addition, before and during the permit review process, we expect to have meetings with the regulatory agencies, project engineer, and client. We also expect to have to prepare responses to comments received during the review process. We have budgeted for attendance at two meetings and include budget to cover the cost of submittal of one response to comments. If additional meetings, or responses to comments, are required they will be billed on a time and materials basis.

City of Lockport Capital Improvement Plan 2018-2027Name

IL 7 Channelization

Type Department

Description:

This project involves the improvement of approximately 3,800 LF of IL 7 from Lincoln to Summit. The project will evaluate

and improve the roadway geometry and stormwater conveyance in the area.

Justification:

The section of roadway creates traffic backups due to the inadequate geometry for the current traffic flows. Stormwater

issues have also been observed in the area due to the current rural cross section with very little curbing and storm sewer.

Staff is working to secure future STU funding (80/20) for construction in 2020. Phase I and Phase II will be completed by

the City to make the project shovel ready for the funding application.

Committee of the WholeAgenda Memorandum Item # AT-1

To: Mayor & City Council

From: Sonni Williams, City Attorney

Subject: Temporary Food Truck Pilot Program

Date: Wednesday, October 2, 2019

BACKGROUND/HISTORYAt the September 24, 2019 Committee of the Whole meeting, the Mayor in his report to the CityCouncil, presented the idea of allowing food truck operations in the City for a pilot program.

Currently, under Chapter 110 of Lockport's Code of Ordinances, specifically Section 110.80, noperson is allowed to operate as a vehicular food vendor (food truck) without having first secureda valid license for each place of business operated within the city and also for each vehicle tobe used in the operation of any such business. Thus, a food truck needs to have a place ofbusiness that is operating in the City in order to lawfully sell food products from a vehicle.

Florian Porsch owns and operates a food truck, Mrs. Mobile Rotisserie Systems, Inc., d/b/aCountry Grill, and applied for such license, but his application for a vehicular food vendor wasdenied because he does not operate a brick and mortar business in Lockport. The proposedresolution will initiate a pilot program to suspend this brick and mortar business requirementand allow the food trucks without a local brick and mortar business to operate in the City, butsuch operation will need to meet certain parameters to address concerns. The proposed pilotprogram will be for six months and require the locations of the food trucks be approved by theCity prior to operating.

The purpose of the Food Truck Pilot Program is to determine whether there is a need topermanently allow these food trucks that do not have the same type of investment in acommunity like a owner of a brick and mortar restaurant have, but offer choice and variety toLockport's residents. Because the current owners of the local restaurants may be impacted bythese food trucks, Alderwoman Bergbower reached out to some of them for feedback. The inputfrom these restaurant owners has been positive and the overall feedback was that these food

34

Page 35: Release of Letter of Credit for Styleline Cabinets in ... · Letter attached.) PROS/CONS/ALTERNATIVES N/A RECOMMENDATION Approve Resolution No. 19-113 for the release of Merutz, LLC

trucks may add to the foot traffic to their brick and mortar restaurants. Alderwoman Bergboweralso added ideas on what parameters should be placed for the Food Truck Pilot Program.

The parameters are outlined in the Resolutions and it is anticipated that the Pilot Program willautomatically terminate on April 30, 2020, at which time, the City Council can determinewhether to allow the food trucks on a permanent basis through a text amendment to the CityCode.

Committee of the WholeAgenda Memorandum Item # AT-2

To: Mayor & City Council

From: Sonni Williams, City Attorney

Subject: Report on Cannabis Regulation and Tax Act

Date: Wednesday, October 2, 2019

BACKGROUND/HISTORYOn June 4, 2019, the Illinois General Assembly passed the Cannabis Regulation and Tax Actlegalizing the purchase, possession and use of marijuana for recreational purposes by adults 21years or older. On June 25, 2019, Governor Pritzker signed the massive 600 pluspage-legislation. The new law presents a multitude of issues for local governments, but theimmediate decision that the City Council needs to make is whether to opt-out of recreationalcannabis related businesses in Lockport by passing an ordinance prohibiting municipal cannabisbusiness establishments before December 31, 2019.

The Cannabis Regulation and Tax Act legalizes the purchase, possession, and use of cannabisby persons 21 and older for recreational purposes and municipalities cannot restrict or prohibitthe private consumption of cannabis as authorized by the Act and cannot restrict or prohibithome-grown cannabis for medical cannabis patients.

The following cannabis related activities remain prohibited under the new and existing statelaw:1. The use of cannabis is prohibited in any "public place." A "public place" includes "anyplace where a person could reasonably be expected to be observed by others." However, thereis an exclusion for private residences. 2. The use of cannabis is prohibited on school grounds. 3. The use or possession of cannabis by a person under the age of 21 is prohibited.4. The use of cannabis is prohibited "in close physical proximity" to persons under the ageof 21. 5. The smoking of cannabis is prohibited in any location where smoking is banned by theSmoke Free Illinois Act which includes hospitals, restaurants, retail stores, offices, commercialestablishments, etc.

38

Page 39: Release of Letter of Credit for Styleline Cabinets in ... · Letter attached.) PROS/CONS/ALTERNATIVES N/A RECOMMENDATION Approve Resolution No. 19-113 for the release of Merutz, LLC

6. The sale of cannabis to minors under the age of 21 is prohibited. 7. The home delivery of cannabis to a consumer by a cannabis business is prohibited. 8. The possession and consumption by a minor under the age of 21 is prohibited unless fora medical purpose. 9. The possession of cannabis in motor vehicle is prohibited unless the cannabis is in a"sealed, odor-proof, child-resistant, tamper-evident cannabis container" and "reasonablyinaccessible". 10. The operation a motor vehicle under the influence of cannabis (DUI) is prohibited. The enforcement and prosecution of most cannabis offenses and/or violations of the aboverestrictions will remain the responsibility of local police departments and States Attorney’soffices.

This new Act creates other issues including, but not limited to, employment, enforcement, andexpungement of cannabis related criminal offenses for municipalities, but this report will beprimarily limited to the decision that must be made by this City Council prior to January 1, 2020.The medical cannabis dispensaries already in operation in Illinois will be the first in line toreceive the recreational cannabis dispensary licenses, so for communities that do have amedical cannabis dispensary, they must pass an ordinance setting forth the local municipalretailers occupation tax ("ROT") on the sale of adult recreational cannabis and must do so byOctober 1st and submit a certified ordinance to the State's Department of Revenue in order tocapture the local sales tax at the earliest date possible.

For Lockport, although the current zoning regulations allow a medical cannabis dispensary,there are strict distance prohibition from existing schools, churches, daycare centers, parks,libraries, and residential zoned areas. There is no current medical cannabis dispensary inLockport, so there is no immediate need to pass an ordinance setting forth a municipal ROT onthe sale of recreational cannabis by October 1st, but the City Council first must decide whetherto opt-out by January 1, 2020. Doing nothing will allow an adult recreational cannabisdispensary or other cannabis related businesses to be able to locate and operate in any zoningdistricts that allow a similar use.

So far the following surrounding communities have decided to opt-out of allowing adultrecreational use cannabis businesses: Naperville, Bolingbrook, Frankfort, Crest Hill, Mokena,Plainfield (close to opting out), Wilmington Libertyville, and Bloomingdale.
