B. Consideration of Acceptance of Gift of Forest Park Demonstration Project
Work and Acceptance of Forest Park Site Improvement Work.
PRESENTED BY: Robert Kiely Jr., City Manager
PURPOSE AND ACTION REQUESTED: On May 12, 2012 the City Council approved a Master
Plan for improving and upgrading Forest Park as prepared by the Forest Park Project
Corporation (the “Project Board”). In October of 2012, the City Council adopted a
resolution approving an agreement relating to the implementation of the approved
Master Plan. Pursuant to the agreement, the cost of the total project ($3.2 million) was
split between the City ($800,000/25%) and the Project Board ($2.4 million/75%).
The Agreement, a copy of which is attached beginning on page 23, stipulates that the
City is the owner of the Site Improvement Work, which work was to be performed by the
Project Board (section 3-5). Based on inspections of the City staff, the Site Improvement
Work has been substantially and satisfactorily completed. The Agreement also provides
that the Project Board is the owner of the Demonstration Project Work [Section 2-4(a)],
but that the Project Board would donate the Demonstration Project Work to the City as a
gift upon satisfactory completion of such work (Section 4-6(C)]. Last week city staff
walked the site and determined that the Demonstration Project Work has been
substantially and satisfactorily completed.
With the completion of the work contemplated under the Agreement, the Project Board
has offered to donate the Demonstration Project Work to the City in accordance with the
Agreement. Staff recommends that the Site Improvement Work and the donation of the
Demonstration Project Work be accepted by the City Council. Such acceptance will
signify the expiration of the Agreement.
A ribbon cutting ceremony celebrating the dedication of the newly rehabilitated Forest
Park is scheduled for Sunday, June 14.
COUNCIL ACTION: Accept the Site Improvement Work and the Project Board’s gift of the
Demonstration Project Work at Forest Park in accordance with the 2012 Forest Park
Agreement.
3. COMMENTS BY COUNCIL MEMBERS
PUBLIC WORKS COMMITTEE
1. Request Approval of Design Services for a Replacement Membrane System
at the Water Treatment Plant
PRESENTED BY: Catherine Waldeck, Chairman of the Public Works Committee and
Dan Martin, Superintendent of Public Works (810-3561)
3
June 1, 2015 City Council Agenda
PURPOSE AND ACTION REQUESTED: The Public Works Committee and staff are requesting
City Council approval of Phase II Engineering: Procurement and Piloting design services
for future purchase of a replacement membrane system, based on equipment and
services provided by Evoqua, GE Water and Process Technologies, and Pall Corporation,
for installation at the water treatment plant.
At its May 18, 2015 meeting, the Public Works Committee was presented the findings and
recommendations for the alternate neighboring water supply and private/public
partnership options requested by the Finance Committee at their March, 2015 Budget
meeting. After reviewing the findings, the Public Works Committee made a
recommendation to move forward with the first stage of the proposed Phase II
Engineering, which is for procurement and piloting design services. This will maintain the
overall project timeline for replacement of the existing membrane system. The second
Committee recommendation calls for continual study of alternatives from neighboring
water supplies for peak shaving* occurrences and private public partnerships
(Alternatives No. 3 & 5 below) for further discussion and input by City Council. Attached
on page 45 is the proposed scope of services from Strand Associates for design services.
* Additional supply provided by either Joint Action Water Agency (Lake Bluff) or Highland
Park during potentially high demand time periods throughout the summer.

Recommendations
A summary of the Water Treatment Plant Planning Study meetings and discussions to
date is on page 47.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: In May 2014, the City received a letter from its membrane
module supplier that the existing membrane system modules would no longer be
manufactured. In June 2014, City Council approved a planning study to evaluate
options for membrane system retrofitting and replacement. As a result, five Alternatives
were evaluated by the Public Works Committee and staff in detail, including:
Alt. No. Description Public Works Committee Status
1. Membrane System Replacement Recommended Option No. 3-B
2. Neighboring Water Supply Only Not Recommended – Neighbors
cannot supply 100%
3. Peak Shaving by Neighboring Supply Further Discussion Necessary
4. Continue Existing Operations
Indefinitely Not Recommended
5. Public-Private Partnership
Opportunities Further Discussion Necessary
4
June 1, 2015 City Council Agenda
Further discussion by City Council on Alternative No. 3 and 5 is proposed on August 3,
2015 in a workshop format to develop input towards bid alternatives that will impact
membrane system design capacity (Option No. 3-A or 3-C) and possibly the future
administrative approach of the water system. Staff anticipates the Phase II Membrane
Replacement System design will be completed by the fall, 2015. After placing the
project out to bid, staff will request City Council award of bid and Phase II Final Design by
the end of January. This step will allow for additional design and pilot validation prior to
construction of improvements in FY2018.
BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT: Dollars are budgeted this fiscal year to complete the design of
the membrane system equipment. Strand Associates has been working with the City’s
water plant for the past four years and has recently designed five membrane filtration
systems of similar size in addition to developing the preliminary plans over the last year for
this project. Strand Associates has thorough and unique knowledge of the plant’s
operations and has in its possession all architectural, mechanical, and hydraulic plans
from which to work.
Staff is requesting an additional $5,000 contingency funding to cover any unforeseen
professional services that may arise as a result of studying Alternate No. 3 and 5.

COMMENTS BY COUNCIL MEMBERS
SUMMARY OF COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT MEETING
Discussion of the City's Review Process
-Jack Reisenberg, Alderman, Third Ward
Alderman Reisenberg reported that recently he and the Chairmen from the Building Review
Board, Zoning Board of Appeals, Plan Commission and Historic Preservation Commission held a
Community Engagement Meeting to review the City’s Community Development review process on
March 12. Alderman Reisenberg reported that the attendees included architects, builders,
developers, landscape architects, managers of each local real estate office, and members of the
Preservation Foundation.
Alderman Reisenberg stated that the discussion centered on the following four questions:
1. How has the Community Development process worked for you?
2. Are there processes used in other communities that LF should consider?
3. What ideas do you have for change?
4. What should not be changed?
Mr. Reisenberg reported that overall, the Board and Commission process works well, particularly
when strong, well-developed projects are presented. Also, there seemed to be unanimity that
the process, design standards, and requirements were necessary in helping to maintain the
character and quality of Lake Forest. Additionally, there were some concerns that with reduced
staff, particularly in busy seasons, there can be longer review times, less assistance with project
design, and less time available for hands on staff support. Lastly, there was a desire for continued
updating of the construction codes, which is in progress.
49
Proceedings of the May 18, 2015 Second Session

• Share this summary with the Boards and Commissions.
• Provide monthly updates to City Council on the turnaround time for building permits.
• Research “peer review” processes used in other communities in an effort to provide
support for architects and designers at the front end of the process.
• Invite assistance from the LF Preservation Foundation to help provide information and
raise awareness in the community of the role of good design in streamlining the review
process and direct the Boards and Commissions to continually explore ways to streamline
and clarify the process.
The City Council held a brief discussion on demolition. Alderman Reisenberg added that he was
very pleased with the results and the communications in the meeting.
Mayor Schoenheider announced that he has asked the staff to look into regulations for the use of
drones within the community.

NEW BUSINESS
1. Consideration of a Memorandum of Understanding between The City of Lake Forest and Lake
Forest Open Lands Association relating to an exchange of property within the City
City Manager, Robert Kiely Jr., reported Lake Forest Open Lands Association (LFOLA) has
approached the City of Lake Forest (City) to open discussions about a possible exchange (SWAP) of
properties. The exchange would involve the City owned property of McCormick Preserve and
Open Lands Park and a one quarter acre parcel of the Elawa Farm garden. Mr. Kiely introduced
John Sentell, President of Lake Forest Open Lands, who reported that the City and LFOLA have
enjoyed a successful ongoing public/private partnership that has enhanced the quality of life in
the community by preserving open space, creating conservation-based developments, enacting
positive open space zoning policies, and partnering on numerous open space and environmental
initiatives.
Mr. Sentell reported that the City possesses the skills and resources to own, manage, and improve
public parks and specialized public open spaces within City boundaries to maximize beauty,
function, and usefulness for the enjoyment and economic benefit residents. LFOLA possesses the
special expertise, financial resources, and organizational mission to manage and restore some of
the most rare and valued natural areas and public nature preserves within the City. Mr. Sentell
gave the examples of Lake Forest’s natural areas such as Middlefork Savanna, Shaw Prairie, and
51
Proceedings of the May 18, 2015 Second Session
Regular City Council Meeting
Haffner Meadow, all areas recognized and dedicated by the Illinois Nature Preserves Commission
as deserving the highest level of protection and recognition in the State of Illinois.
Mr. Sentell reported that the proposed exchange would benefit the residents of Lake Forest by
aligning each property with the entity most able to preserve, enhance and maintain them on a
long-term basis. At the same time, the opportunity for residents to use and enjoy the properties
would continue, including McCormick Day Camp, with the additional benefits of natural resource
improvements.
Mr. Sentell reported that the City and LFOLA are currently engaged in discussions with the United
States Army Corp of Engineers pertaining to participation in the Great Lakes Fishery and
Ecosystem Restoration Program (GLFER). As part of this, LFOLA intends to commit the substantial
financial resources necessary to meet the cost and management requirements, and both parties
to jointly agree to engage in an intensive restoration of McCormick Ravine as part of the Army
Corps of Engineers' federally-funded GLFER program.
The City Council had discussion of the impact of the land exchange and the consensus of the
Council was agreement that it was a good idea. Mayor Schoenheider asked if there was anyone
from the Public who wanted to comment on the topic. Seeing none, he asked for a motion.
COUNCIL ACTION: Approve the proposed Memorandum of Understanding relating to an exchange
of properties involving McCormick Nature Preserve, Open Lands Park and a portion of property at
Elawa Farm, and direct the City manager and the City Attorney to proceed with preparation of the
legal documents to effectuate the exchange.
Alderman Tack made a motion to approve the proposed Memorandum of Understanding relating
to an exchange of properties involving McCormick Nature Preserve, Open Lands Park and a
portion of property at Elawa Farm, and direct the City manager and the City Attorney to proceed
with preparation of the legal documents to effectuate the exchange, seconded by Alderman
Moreno. The following voted “Yea”: Aldermen Beidler, Waldeck, Newman, Tack, Reisenberg,
Adelman and Moreno. The following voted “Nay”: None. 7 Yeas, 0 Nays, motion carried.
ADDITIONAL ITEMS FOR COUNCIL DISCUSSION
Alderman Moreno stated that she was honored to serve as the City’s liaison to the CROYA Board
