Reviewed Date Comments
City Council May 2, 2016 Adoption of FY17 Comprehensive Plan
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: While the annual municipal budget represents the
City’s financial “plan” for expenditures over the course of the fiscal year, the annual
Appropriation Ordinance is the formal legal mechanism by which the City Council
authorizes the actual expenditures of funds budgeted in the annual budget. It
appropriates specific sums of money by object and purpose of expenditures. State
1
Tuesday, July 5, 2016 City Council Agenda
statutes require the passage of an Appropriation Ordinance which must be filed
with the County Clerk by the end of July.
The Appropriation Ordinance includes the Library, which was not included in the
budget approved at the May 2, 2016 City Council meeting. The Library expenses
are approved by the Library Board. The Debt Service payments were included in
the budget approved at the May 2, 2016 City Council meeting, but are excluded
from the Appropriation Ordinance. The ordinances approving the debt issues
authorize these annual expenditures.
The Appropriation Ordinance provides for a 10% “contingency” in the expenditures
in an amount above those actually budgeted. Each separate fund includes an
item labeled “contingency” with an appropriate sum equivalent up to 10% of the
total funds budgeted. This practice has been followed for more than thirty years
and has worked very efficiently, while still providing for complete City Council
control over budgeted expenditures. Importantly, the City Council and City staff
follows the adopted budget as its spending guideline, not the Appropriation
Ordinance.
Without the contingency, the City Council would have to pass further modifications
to the Appropriation Ordinance to cover any unforeseen expenditures exceeding
the budget.
In addition, in order to provide more accurate and efficient accounting and
budgeting of City funds, an annual rollover of funds is required. This eliminates both
under and over budgeting of funds in the new fiscal year and is a widely used
standard practice for most municipal governments. The items on the attached
rollover list (page 8) consist of projects that were appropriated in FY2016 and will not
be completed until FY2017.
School District 67 does not recognize the Appropriation Ordinance in their
budgeting or auditing standards. However, due to the fact they are a special
charter district, their budget must be included in our Appropriation Ordinance.
School District 67 numbers are estimates and subject to changes, but are not
available until second and final reading of the Ordinance.
BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT: The attached Appropriation Ordinance Worksheet (page
10) demonstrates the reconciliation of the Adopted Budget to the Appropriation
Ordinance by Fund.
COUNCIL ACTION: Approval of the first reading of the ordinance (page 11) and the
rollovers. A copy of the ordinance is available for review by the public in the City
Clerk’s office. A public hearing will be conducted on July 18, 2016 in conjunction
with second reading of the ordinance.

Tuesday, July 5, 2016 City Council Agenda
PROPERTY AND PUBLIC LANDS COMMITTEE
1. Consideration of a Recommendation from the Property and Public Lands
Committee in Support of a Resolution Directing the Sale of Surplus Property
Located at 361 E. Westminster, in the Cultural Corridor. (Approve by Motion)
PRESENTED BY: Alderman Reisenberg
Chairman of the Property and Public Lands Committee
PURPOSE AND ACTION REQUESTED: On a continuing basis, the Property and Public Lands
Committee of the City Council (the PPL) reviews the disposition of various City owned
properties. As a result of extensive study and deliberations over the past year, the PPL is
recommending that the City Council declare the approximately one-half acre property
located at 361 E. Westminster as surplus property and direct staff to proceed with the
necessary steps to offer the property for sale consistent with the Council’s adopted
polices relating to the sale of surplus property.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION: The property at 361 E. Westminster was originally part of
the Quinlan Estate. The coach house for the estate remains on the property today.
Through the years, the coach house was adaptively reused as a home for the Lake Forest
Masonic Building Association, temporary City offices and by the Lake Forest/Lake Bluff
Historical Society. The City purchased the property in 1983 and has leased the property
to the Historical Society since 1998. In accordance with the lease extension approved in
2015, the Historical Society is scheduled to vacate the building in September of this year.
In January, 2016, the City Council, at the recommendation of the PPL, approved a
Resolution directing study of the Cultural Corridor Area, (the area bounded by
Westminster on the north, Illinois Road on the south, east of McKinley Road, in which the
City property is located), by the Historic Preservation Commission and Plan Commission
for the purpose of considering the parcel in the context of the redevelopment of the
larger area. Consistent with that direction:
On June 2, 2016, the Historic Preservation Commission held a public hearing and
voted 6 to 0 to issue a Certificate of Appropriateness approving the demolition of
the building on the property. The Commission’s action was supported by a
building conditions report and an historic assessment, both prepared by
consultants.
On July, 13, 2016, the Plan Commission will begin discussion of the Cultural Corridor
with a specific focus on the role the City property may play in the redevelopment
of the larger area and on the highest and best use for the property. The
Commission’s report will be forwarded to the City Council. An expected outcome
of this discussion is development parameters that could inform potential buyers of
the City’s expectations with respect to redevelopment of the property and the
larger area.
An environmental assessment of the property was completed and no areas of
concern were identified.

Tuesday, July 5, 2016 City Council Agenda
The attached Resolution on page 22 announces the City’s intent to offer the property for
sale and directs City staff to take appropriate next steps in preparing for the sale of the
property.
BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT: No approval for expenditure of City funds is requested.
COUNCIL ACTION: Approve a motion in support of a Resolution declaring the property
located at 361 E. Westminster as surplus property and directing City staff to take the
necessary steps, in accordance with the Council’s adopted policies, to offer the property
for sale.

Tuesday, July 5, 2016 City Council Agenda
1. Consideration of an Ordinance Amending the City of Lake Forest Liquor
Code, to increase the number of Licenses available in Class C-3. (First
reading and if appropriate final approval)
PRESENTED BY: Victor Filippini, City Attorney
STAFF CONTACT: Margaret Boyer, Deputy City Clerk, 847-810-3674
PURPOSE AND ACTION REQUESTED: At the direction of the City’s Liquor Commissioner, Staff
is requesting consideration of an Ordinance amending the Liquor Code to include one
additional Class C-3 license, making the total number nine.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION: In recent weeks the Liquor Commissioner received a
letter from Chiefs Pub requesting to add a Class C-3 to its current Class C-1 License. If
approved, there are conditions that would need to be met before the issuance of the
additional license. Some of the conditions would be a site plan showing the proposed
location of the tables along with an approval letter from the property owner.
The proposed ordinance can be found beginning on page 32. It is important to note that
without further action of the City Council, the maximum number if license in any class
shall be automatically reduced by one upon the expiration, revocation or non-renewal
of an existing license in any such license class.
As the Council is aware, the issuance of liquor licenses is under the purview of the City’s
Liquor Commissioner and the Mayor serves in that role. However, the City Code only
authorizes a specific number of liquor licenses and historically, this number coincides with
the current number of licenses issued. When new requests for liquor licenses are
submitted, and after review by the Liquor Commissioner and a determination that the
Issuance of a license is appropriate, the City Council is asked to consider an amendment
to the Liquor Code.
COUNCIL ACTION: Consideration of an Ordinance Amending the City of Lake Forest
Liquor Code, to increase the number of Licenses available in Class C-3. (First reading and
if appropriate final approval)
7. ORDINANCES AFFECTING CODE AMENDMENTS
8. NEW BUSINESS
1. Consideration of a Recommendation from the Zoning Board of Appeals in Support of
an Amendment to the Special Use Permit for Lake Forest College as it Pertains to
Farwell Field and Halas Hall. (First Reading, and if Desired by the City Council, Final
Approval)
PRESENTED BY: Catherine Czerniak,
Director of Community Development (810-3504)
On March 28th and June 27th, 2016, the Zoning Board of Appeals held a public hearing for the
purpose of considering a request from Lake Forest College for an amendment to an existing
5
Tuesday, July 5, 2016 City Council Agenda
Special Use Permit to allow the use of seasonal, temporary lights on Farwell Field. The
temporary lights are requested to provide a safe, on-campus field for College team practices
during the fall, after daylight savings time ends. A summary of the conditions under which the
lights would be used is provided below.
No permanent lights will be installed on the field and no electrical infrastructure to
support lights will be installed.
The lights will be used only for football and soccer practices, no games will be
played on the field under the lights.
No music will be played during practices.
The lights will be used for a maximum of three weeks, beginning the day after
daylight savings time ends each year. If the College teams are successful in post
season play, lights will be used for the full three week period, if not; the lights will
be in use for less than three weeks.
During the three week period, the lights and the associated generators will be in
use Monday through Friday, from 4 p.m. until 7:30 p.m.
All of the generators which power the lights will be baffled with materials
manufactured specifically for the purpose of providing sound attenuation. The
baffle material for all six lights will be purchased by the College and installed at
the base of each light prior to the use of the lights in 2016.
The light poles will be extended to full height only during the hours of use. The light
poles will be lowered each evening and will remain in the retracted position
during the day.
The Zoning Board of Appeals’ report provides a more detailed review of the request and
responds to various questions that were raised during the public hearing process. The
Board heard testimony both in support of and in opposition to the request from residents
in the surrounding neighborhood. A copy of all written testimony received by the Board
was made available to the City Council.
During deliberations, the members of the Zoning Board of Appeals stated support for the
College noting the importance of the institution to the community and recognized that
significant efforts were made by the College to explore alternatives to the use of
temporary lights on Farwell Field and to limit the impacts on the neighboring residential
properties. The Board also acknowledged that with in 2015, the City Council, based on a
recommendation from the Zoning Board of Appeals, authorized the use of temporary
lights as a one-year trial. Information was gained from that experience and was factored
into the current proposal from the College and factored into the conditions of approval.
Acknowledging that further mitigation of impacts on neighboring properties may be
possible, the Board recommendation includes a condition that a sound and lighting
consultant(s) be engaged by the City to inspect the field during the use of the lights in
2016 to offer recommendations on any additional measures that could be taken.
After hearing a presentation by President Schutt and other representatives of the
College, background information from City staff and public testimony, the Board
deliberated and voted 7 to 0 to recommend approval of the petition to the City Council,
subject to numerous conditions of approval as detailed in the Ordinance. In addition,
the Board voted to recommend modifications to the Special Use Permit to align with the
6
Tuesday, July 5, 2016 City Council Agenda
current use of Farwell Field and Halas Hall specifically, removal of the language
authorizing use of the field by the Chicago Fire soccer team. The field is no longer used
by commercial, non-College teams.
Additional background information on this petition is included in the Council packet beginning
on page 35. An Ordinance amending the Special Use Permit to allow the seasonal use of
temporary lights on Farwell Field, subject to conditions, and incorporating other modifications
to align the Special Use Permit with current uses will be provided to the City Council under
separate cover. The Ordinance, complete with all exhibits, is available for review in the
Community Development Department.
COUNCIL ACTION: If determined to be appropriate by the City Council, waive first
reading and grant final approval of an Ordinance amending the Special Use Permit for
Lake Forest College as it pertains to Farwell Field and Halas Hall as recommended by the
Zoning Board of Appeals.

COMMENTS BY COUNCIL MEMBERS
Alderman Waldeck gave an update for the Public Works Committee that addressed the national
issue of lead in the water. Ms. Waldeck explained that the lead, if any, comes from private service
lines. The City has composed a list of approximately 300 homes who may have private sewer lines
from the 1950’s that might contain lead, and the letter asks the homeowner to contact the Public
Works Department.
Alderman Pandaleon remarked how great the clean viaduct bridges look on Westliegh Road, and
that now the architectural detail can be seen.
Alderman Adelman reported the Legal Committee recently met, and that legal costs are
approximately 20% under budget.

it separately. The City Council had discussion on item #4, related to “gray list” and item # 8 related

Regular City Council Meeting
NEW BUSINESS
1. Consideration of Award of a Contract for Professional Services to Conduct a
Community-Wide Survey by National Research Center, Inc.
Jim Lockefeer, Management Intern, reported that approximately every five years, the City
conducts a community-wide survey to gain insight on a wide variety of issues and services it
provides. The survey typically is held prior to a Strategic Planning Session held by the Mayor and
the City Council, also about every five years. Results from the surveys help determine topics for
discussion at the Strategic Planning Sessions.
Mr. Lockefeer stated that staff issued a Request for Proposals in March, 2016. DePaul University’s
Chaddick institute, which conducted the City’s four previous surveys, is no longer doing this type of work.
The City received proposals from National Research Center and NIU’s Center for Governmental Studies.
Mr. Lockefeer noted the experience and methodology for both proposals.
Mr. Lockefeer stated that staff is recommending approval of a proposal submitted by National Research
Center as the most qualified candidate. Based upon the company’s experience, staff believes NRC will
work best with staff to develop and to structure a customized survey for the residents of Lake Forest.
The Survey will be administered by mail with an online response option and promoted in the media,
Dialogue and social media, while adding the benefit of benchmarking.
Consolidated Timeline: November 9, 2016 – Survey packet will be mailed to residents and made available
online. January, 2017 – NRC will present a complete report to the City Council.
The City Council had discussion on the type of questions, the form of response (electronic), the number
of responses and the possibility of moving up the timeline.
Mayor Schoenheider asked if there was anyone from the public who would like to make a comment.
Seeing none, he asked for a motion.
COUNCIL ACTION: If determined to be appropriate by the City Council, grant approval of the
