THE MOTION CARRIED.

Concerning the 2001 construction street project, Administrator Haley said the project consists of sewer replacement and manhole repair on Main Street. The project began on November 26th and we found that the sewer in front of the library was collapsed and totally unfunctional. This portion of the sewer was repaired within a week and the traffic is back on Main Street. There is another piece of the sewer that is south of the intersection of Main and Ida that also was collapsed and we had to replace that. We found that there was two necessary changes in the project due to what we found after we started the repair. It was the decision of the contractor, our engineer and public works staff that the manhole chimney seals that we had intended on using would not work, so we held that portion of the project back. The manholes themselves would take approximately one week to fix and we would have to have the street closed. With the timing of the downtown businesses, we decided to move that whole project to the spring. The contractor is doing a good job and the project came in as bid contract.

Mr. Michael Haley, village administrator, stated at some time there would be a need for a new water tower out there. The assumption that the village is going to pay for it is incorrect. We don't anticipate paying for a new tower. If a subdivision is ever approved it will be paid for by the people out there. The location of a new tower has not been decided as of yet and final engineering is not done.

Trustee Hanson arrived at 8:10 p.m.

The Combined Planning and Zoning Board reviewed the proposed plat on December 13, 2001, following posting of the meeting agenda as required.

The plat was presented by Mr. Glenn Christensen, Christensen & Associates, Landscape Architects, Gurnee, Illinois. The proposed subdivision includes six single-family lots each larger than 200,000 square feet, on a site with aggregate area of 99 acres.

The preliminary plat was approved by the Planning and Zoning Board on September 13, 2001, file number PZB01-08. It was subsequently approved by the Village Board by Resolution Number R01-10-01.

Village Planner Bob Silhan presented his brief report. The proposed final plat is in substantial conformance to the approved preliminary; therefore, Mr. Silhan recommends approval.

Following brief discussion, Carol Keller moved, Tom Baba seconded, that PZB01-11, the proposed Final Plat of Brighton Farm Subdivision be approved. Upon roll call vote:
YES: 6; Ipsen, McCarty, F.Johnson, LaReese, Keller and Baba. NO: 0. ABSENT: 0. THE MOTION CARRIED.

SITUATION: Other municipalities require developer contributions beyond schools, parks and libraries. The typical services for which contributions are required are: police, fire and roads.

SURVEY. The following figures are based upon our previous phone survey and the recent survey conduct on our behalf by the Northwest Municipal Conference. Most municipalities base their fee on dollars per dwelling unit. A few have fees based upon dollars per capita, or a sliding scale depending on type of unit and number of bedrooms, (as is our schools and park fees - see attached population chart). The typical single-family unit being a 3-bedroom detached unit, I've provided each municipal fee with equivalent dollars per unit compared with dollars per capita, (2.899 persons per 3-bedroom home).

Fees for Police Departments.

$ per d.u. $ per capita
Bartlett $801.54 $276.49
Crystal Lake $ 90.00 $ 31.04
Gurnee $100.00 $ 34.49
Lindenhurst $425.00 $146.60
Schaumburg $125.00 $ 43.11
Mean Averages $308.30 $106.34

Fees for Fire Departments.

Bartlett $462.68 $159.60
Cary $250.00 $ 86.23
Crystal Lake $240.00 $ 82.78
Gurnee $150.00 $ 51.74
Grayslake $180.00 $ 62.09
Lake in the Hills $250.00 $ 86.23
Lake Zurich $1000.00 $344.94
Lindenhurst $425.00 $146.60
McHenry $260.00 $ 89.68
Richmond $250.00 $ 86.23
Schaumburg $225.00 $ 77.61
Mean Averages $335.69 $115.79

Fees for Roads.
Gurnee $500.00 $172.47
Lincolnshire $520.00 $179.37
Lake in the Hills $100.00 $ 34.49
Mean Averages $373.33 $128.77

CURRENT COSTS. Based upon the Audit Report for fiscal year ending April 30, 2001, and our AD2000 population of 8800 persons, the current annual cost per capita of various services is as follows:
Police $191.98
Fire $ 53.29
Streets $108.71
Total $353.98

RESULT TO AN AVERAGE 3-BEDROOM SINGLE FAMILY HOME. Currently, the cash contributions amount to $4,144 for schools, $1,777.81 for parks, and $210.00 for library, for a total of $6,131.81. The above figures based upon actual expenditures would add $1,026.18 in contributions, or an increase of 16 percent.

Adding all of the mean averages from the survey would result in a total of $350.90 per capita, which would result in an additional amount of $1,017.25 per 3-bedroom home, also a 16 percent increase.

RECOMMENDATION. I recommend that the following motion be made and approved: That the Subdivision Code, Chapter 152, be amended to add developer contributions as follows:

for Police Department: $191.98 per capita;
for Fire Department: $ 53.29 per capita;
for Street Department: $108.71 per capita;

and that the Village Attorney be directed to draft the appropriate ordinance for first reading.

A motion was made by Trustee Porch, seconded by Trustee Larson to approve the memorandum dated December 11, 2001 from Bob Silhan, Director of Planning, Zoning and Building regarding developer contributions including the following amendment; Police Department - $200.00; Fire Department - $60.00; and Street Department - $110.00. The fees will be reviewed annually. On roll call, the vote was:
YES: 5; Larson, Caulfield, Foresta, Porch and Hanson.
NO: 0.
ABSENT: 1; Pierce.
THE MOTION CARRIED.

Administrator Haley reported there is a very minor increase in the premium amount. We put the liability insurance out to bid, which only two companies responded to. The IML quote was significantly better than the other company.

Trustee Porch discussed providing for final loan papers to be signed with two signatures. Attorney Anderson stated that we are talking about a specific resolution provided to us by Agency to be used for a specific loan. He stated that he is not sure that we should change or substitute their form. Trustee Foresta suggested that we look into signature policies at the committee meetings.

A motion was made by Trustee Foresta, seconded by Trustee Larson to approve the letter which indicates the village's desire to end the contract between Clark Dietz, Inc. and the Village of Antioch for the operation and maintenance activities at the Antioch WWTP, including Industrial Pretreatment Monitoring, as of December 31, 2001. On roll call, the vote was:
YES: 5; Larson, Caulfield, Foresta, Porch and Hanson.
NO: 0.
ABSENT: 1; Pierce.
