1. COMMENTS BY MAYOR
A. Introduction: Report From the Library Board
- Catherine Lemmer, Director, Lake Forest Library
The Library Board, staff and consultants will provide the Council and the Community with an
introduction to the proposed Library Capital Improvement Project. This project includes both
restoration, repair and much needed upgrades to the original 1931 Library as well as
concepts for providing new, forward thinking spaces to accommodate library services and
programs long into the future. After its construction in 1931, the Lake Forest Library was
1
Monday, October 19, 2020 City Council Agenda
recognized as being at the forefront, the facility was not just about books, but about people
and community. The original Library and the later modifications have served the community
well, but time has taken its toll and the way in which libraries serve communities continues to
change. The proposed project focuses on returning the building to its original grandeur while
at the same time, finding ways to offer new, flexible spaces that will allow the Library to
continue to serve the community long into the future, in a way that is uniquely Lake
Forest. Consistent with the Lake Forest tradition, the project proposes to honor the past while
looking forward.
This presentation again, an introduction. An opportunity for the Council and the community
to more fully understand the work, study and engagement that has occurred to date to the
credit of the Library Board and staff. There is still much work to do and many questions to be
answered. This presentation is intended to formally begin the community discussions about
the future of the Library. No action is requested of the Council at this time. Questions,
comments and requests for additional information are requested. A cover letter and
overview of Q & A are included and can be found on page 115.

Enhancement Program for The City of Lake Forest Project Grant Applications and
the Authorization of the City Manager to Execute Related Grant Application
Documents
STAFF CONTACT: Jim Lockefeer, Public Works Management Analyst (810-3542)
PURPOSE AND ACTION REQUESTED: City staff requests approval of Resolutions committing local
funds for the Illinois Transportation Enhancement Program for the City of Lake Forest Deerpath
Streetscape Improvement Project, Illinois & Woodland Bike Path Bridge Replacements, and
Rte. 60 Bike Path Project grant applications and the authorization of the City Manager to
execute related grant application documents.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: ITEP is a federally and state funded competitive grant program
that expands travel choices and enhances the transportation experience by improving the
cultural, historic, aesthetic and environmental aspects of transportation infrastructure and
promotes the opportunity for communities to beautify their streets and/or develop means of
transportation facilities such as bike/pedestrian trails or paths.
ITEP funds are awarded competitively and any local government or state agency with taxing
authority is eligible to apply. Project sponsors may receive up to eighty (80) percent
reimbursement for eligible project costs. This year ITEP will provide $105.6 million in state and
federal funding. The deadline for application submittals is November 2, 2020 and successful
application awards will be announced in the Spring of 2021.
City staff and the Public Works Committee have identified three projects that are all ITEP
eligible; Deerpath Streetscape Improvement Project, Illinois & Woodland Bike Path Bridge
Replacements, and Rte. 60 Bike Path Project. In order to submit the project applications, ITEP
requires a Resolution committing local funds for each project. On page 22 of the packet a
copy of the proposed project Resolutions for the commitment of local funds can be found. A
brief summary of each project follows below.
Deerpath Streetscape Improvement Project: This project features infrastructure improvements
and the overall beautification of the Deerpath Streetscape from Oakwood Avenue to
Western Avenue. A project recommendation report and plans have been approved by an
interdisciplinary Deerpath Streetscape Ad-Hoc Committee which was appointed by the City
Manager in 2019 to study, review public comment, and make recommendations for this
portion of Deerpath. The City has already invested local funds by completing a Phase I design
in anticipation of submitting an ITEP grant application for Phase II design and construction

funding. Currently, the project is identified in the City’s Capital Improvement Program as a
Priority 5, grant dependent project in Fiscal Year 2022 and 2023.
Illinois & Woodland Bike Path Bridge Replacements: This project calls for the replacement of
the two pedestrian bridges on the McClory Bike Path in downtown Lake Forest. The bridges,
installed in 1994, span Illinois Road and Woodland Road and are 110 feet long and 220 feet
long respectively. The Robert McClory Bike Trail spans 26.5 miles from Highland Park to the
Wisconsin state line and is an integral component of both the Grand Illinois Trail and US Bike
Route 37 which begins in Chicago and ends in Northern Wisconsin where the trail ties into
other national routes. The bridges have been identified as high priority replacement projects
in the recently completed 2020 Bridge Study. Currently, the replacements are identified in the
City’s Capital Improvement Program as a Priority 1 funded projects in Fiscal Year 2022 and
2023.
Rte. 60 Bike Path Project: This project will provide safe bicycle and pedestrian access along
the north side of Illinois Route 60 between Academy Drive and the existing sidewalk located
at the Field Drive entrance to the Conway Business Park. Once completed, the shared-use
path will connect Conway Park to the recently completed path at Middlefork Savanna which
includes a 10’ wide bridge over the Metra tracks. This path will provide a vital east – west
connection for bicyclists and pedestrians as depicted in The City of Lake Forest Bicycle Master
Plan and as further identified in the Rte. 60 Corridor Chapter Comprehensive Plan Update.
The City has already invested local funds by completing a Phase I design in anticipation of
submitting an ITEP grant application for Phase II design and construction funding. Currently,
the project is identified in the City’s Capital Improvement Program as a Priority 5, grant
dependent project in Fiscal Year 2022.

conditioning units with central air conditioning units. There was no testimony presented to the
Board on this petition. The Board commended the petitioner, the new owner of the property, for
making much needed improvements to this duplex structure. (Board vote: 7 - 0, approved)

1. Consideration of a Recommendation from the Plan Commission to Deny the
Request for an Amendment to the Gimbel Plat of Subdivision. (Motion or Direction
to Staff)
PRESENTED BY: Catherine Czerniak,
Director of Community Development (810-3504)
PURPOSE AND ACTION REQUESTED: Consideration of a recommendation from the Plan Commission
to deny a request for an amendment to the previously approved and recorded plat of subdivision
for the Gimbel Subdivision.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
On September 9, 2020, the Plan Commission held a public hearing to consider a request for
an amendment to a previously approved plat for the Gimbel Subdivision. The Gimbel
Subdivision was originally approved by the City and subsequently recorded in 1997. The
7
Monday, October 19, 2020 City Council Agenda
request, as presented by the petitioner’s attorney at the public hearing, was to eliminate a
covenant on the recorded plat of subdivision which prohibits an additional curb cut on
Westminster for Lot 1 of the subdivision.
The original approval of the subdivision included a provision that the newly created lot, the
front lot of a lot-in-depth subdivision, must share the existing curb cut with Lot 2 of the
subdivision, the rear lot. This limitation is reflected on the recorded plat of subdivision. The
intent of the restriction, based on the record of the deliberations on the Gimbel Subdivision
that occurred during the course of several years in the 1990’s, was to preserve the historic and
landscaped character of the streetscape and minimize impacts on the significant historic
estate to the east.
No change to the number of lots, the configuration of the existing lots, the setbacks or the
buildable area on either lot is requested.
At the public hearing, the Plan Commission heard a presentation from the petitioner and
received both written and verbal testimony from neighboring property owners and other
interested parties. The testimony presented was consistently in opposition to the proposed
amendment. It was noted by some who testified that as property owners in the area, they
relied on prior development approvals, recorded plats, covenants and restrictions when
making decisions about their properties. The Plan Commission’s report, detailed minutes of
the Commission’s deliberations and copies of the written correspondence submitted to the
Commission are included in the Council’s packet beginning on page 68.
After deliberation, the Plan Commission voted 6 to 0 to recommend denial of the request to
amend the plat of subdivision based on the following findings.
1. The original approval of the Gimbel Subdivision including all of the notes, covenants
and restrictions on the recorded plat were granted after a thorough public process
and full public hearing.
2. The restrictions were specifically stated on the plat for the purpose of preserving the
streetscape.
3. The plat was recorded over 23 years ago and the restrictions were known, or should
have been known, to the current property owners when they purchased the property
in 2001.
4. The testimony presented to the Commission included testimony from neighboring
property owners that they relied on the clear and comprehensive language on the
recorded plat for the Gimbel Subdivision.
5. The petitioner has not demonstrated a change in the circumstances or conditions
upon which the original approvals were based in order to support the requested
amendment.
6. Lot 1 of the Gimbel Subdivision is a buildable lot under the terms and conditions as
approved in 1997 and consistent with the final plat of subdivision which was submitted
to the City for recording by the then owners, the Gimbels.
BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACTS: Two lots were created by the Gimbel Subdivision in 1997. No
change to the number of lots is proposed. The second lot will remain available for future
development with or without amendment to the plat.
COUNCIL ACTION:
8
Monday, October 19, 2020 City Council Agenda
Approve a motion accepting the Plan Commission’s recommendation and denying the
request for amendments to the previously recorded plat for the Gimbel Subdivision.
OR
If the Council desires to approve the request for amendment to the previously recorded plat
of subdivision for the Gimbel Subdivision, 1) direct the petitioner to prepare an amended plat
of subdivision reflecting the removal of the prohibition of a second curb cut on Westminster
and 2) direct staff to prepare detailed findings in support of approval and present an
Ordinance to the Council, along with the amended plat of subdivision for Council action at a
future meeting.

Dear Mayor Pandaleon, and Members of City Council,
The Lake Forest Library Board is honored to present this update on the Library Capital Improvement
Project to the City Council and Lake Forest community. More than four years in the making, this
project proposes the restoration and expansion of the original 1931 Edwin H. Clark building to
position the Library to deliver high quality services and programs to the Lake Forest community long
into the future.
The Capital Improvement Project delivers a library for all generations. The interior and exterior of
the original 1931 facility will be restored to their former grandeur and intended uses. And for those
that seek a library that delivers the 21st century amenities provided by libraries in neighboring peer
communities, new spaces will be added in a reflective and thoughtful manner.
Our work over the last four years has engaged many members of the Lake Forest community and
has been directed by the Library’s mission to inspire lifelong learning, promote the free and
respectful exchange of ideas, and build community, as well as Lake Forest’s four cornerstones of
family, education, tradition, and philanthropy. In keeping with our role as stewards of the public’s
trust, our work has also been guided by the broad tenets of the Lake Forest Community Strategic
Plan: fiscal stewardship, business and economic vitality, environmental sustainability, and
community character.
Throughout the exploration of the Library Capital Improvement Project, the Library continues to
deliver outstanding resources, programs, and services to the Lake Forest Community. This work,
delivered independently and collaboratively with many community partners, provides a wide range
of exploration and learning opportunities for all Lake Foresters. The Library’s performance metrics
surpass state averages and those of similarly situated institutions. The quality of the Library’s work
was recognized in January 2020, when the national publication Library Journal designated the
Library as a four-star “Star Library,” an honor based on metrics such as library visits, circulation,
computer and wireless use, and program attendance. This recognition and the Lake
Forest community’s respect for and appreciation of the Library is due in great part to the
Library’s continued and unwavering dedication to delivering innovative and effective programs,
outstanding resources, and concierge service. We invite you to review the Library’s FY 2020 Annual
Report on the Library’s website.
The Library Capital Improvement Project advances the City’s Strategic Plan vision of Lake Forest as
a place to live fully. We appreciate your consideration of this important and vital project.
Regards,
The Lake Forest Library Board

What does a 21st Century Library mean for Lake Forest?
Expectations of public libraries are evolving. Libraries are no longer buildings full of books. In
short, a 21st century library provides access to outstanding resources, inclusive programs, and
concierge-level service, with the goal of building and enhancing its community. More specifically,
a 21st century library:
• Is welcoming and responsive to the needs of individuals with physical and mental challenges
and differences
• Supports creativity and innovation through a wide range of hands-on activities, including
printmaking, 3D modeling, textile arts, media preservation, publishing works, and more
• Welcomes people seeking connection such as senior citizens, empty nesters, or new residents
to come read the newspaper, sit in common areas, or engage in friendly conversation with
staff and other library users
• Serves as a resource for accessing technology and learning hands-on digital literacy skills,
ensuring no one is left behind as technology evolves
• Provides opportunities for new parents and caregivers to connect and support each other
through children’s programs
• Facilitates meaningful peer relationships for children and teens through activities,
discussions, and other screen-free alternatives
• Is a safe and productive destination for students to meet with tutors and study groups
• Safeguards privacy to empower vulnerable populations, teens, or others seeking information
or support on sensitive topics
• Cultivates a safe, respectful environment through programs and resources that enable people
with different ideas and points of view to have challenging conversations that promote
personal growth
• Offers a variety of resources and ways of accessing information, enabling individuals to find
accurate, unbiased, balanced answers
• Supports the technology preferences of its users
• Provides meeting spaces for entrepreneurs, small business owners, and the self-employed as
well as organizations
• Recognizes that no one institution in Lake Forest can provide all the programming that the
community desires, collaborates with other cultural and civic institutions to provide programs
that enhance and strengthen the collective well-being
• Functions as a participating member of the community and Central Business District by
collaborating with and participating in Chamber of Commerce and other city-wide initiatives
• Amplifies messages, resources, and services provided by local organizations to strengthen
community awareness and interconnections
• Provides an ADA-compliant facility that functions effectively, efficiently, and flexibly to enable
spaces to be used for different purposes, today and in the future

What does it mean to restore the 1931 Edwin Clark building?
The 1931 Edwin H. Clark building is first and foremost a library. Built as a library and gifted to the
City of Lake Forest in honor of Kersey Coates Reed, it is prized as an architectural jewel built in
the grand classical style of the time. The building has served the Lake Forest community
for nearly 90 years and now faces many functional and infrastructure challenges.
The Capital Improvement Project has four goals for the original building:
• preserve and refresh the original grandeur
• restore the functionality of its original spaces
• breathe new life into the spaces to enable their continued use, and
• address the wide range of aging and deteriorating system and infrastructure elements
(ADA compliance, dome, foundation, electrical and plumbing, HVAC).
Library use has dramatically changed since 1931, requiring new services and resources to be
incorporated and supported in ways that diminish the functionality and grandeur of the original
spaces. For example, the addition of the 1978 west wing transformed the quiet reading room
into a passageway to collections housed in the new wing. The stately foyer became less
welcoming as it transformed from a conversational seating area and became cluttered with the
business associated with modern libraries (e.g., copiers, security gates, self-check).
One restoration possibility under consideration is the removal of the east and west wings. While
it results in a reduction of 3,000 square feet that will need to be incorporated in a new expansion,
the removal restores the spaces to their original and still needed functions. The newly
refurbished reading room will serve as a space for quiet reflection, and even a forum for select
special events such as author talks or after-hours literary receptions. The refurbished reference
annex will provide new opportunities for engagement with experienced reference staff.
Restoring and renovating these spaces provides the Library with the opportunity to enhance the
patron experience with flexible and ADA-compliant furniture, more open spaces, and the ability
to expand the use of these spaces in new and innovative ways as the needs of patrons continue
to evolve.
The square footage provided in the original building is critical to library operations and
improvement options under consideration do not include abandoning these spaces for new.
Rather, envisioning possibilities that respond to the calls for historic preservation, ADA
compliance, and flexible functionality that breathe new life and vigor into these spaces are the
priority of the Library Board.
Why is the expansion needed?
The 2017 Library Community Survey identified a number of services desired by Lake Forest
residents. These included, among other things, study rooms, spaces for tutors to engage with
117
Lake Forest Library City Council Briefing 10.19.2020 3
students, mid-sized program/meeting rooms, a dedicated teen space, self-check and other
technology, and maker space options. In addition, the 2012 PHN Architects ADA Compliance
Audit and 2018 Building Feasibility Study identified critical life and safety building failures to
address, in particular water penetration in the roofs, dome, brick, and foundation; ADA-
compliant entrances, elevator, restrooms, and building flow; interior lighting; HVAC; and parking.
Over the last few years, the Library has, among other things, repurposed staff and backroom
operation areas into public spaces; reduced office spaces; and installed compact shelving all to
find space for services desired by the Lake Forest community. By doing so, the Library was able
to create a small teen area and relocate materials to the ground floor for ease of access by
seniors. There are no more options to find space within the existing facility.
Hummel Consulting, in preparing the Library’s 2020 space needs assessment determined the
square footage required to deliver each individual aspect of current and desired library services.
When tallied, the required square exceeds what is available in the current 1931 building. The
expansion delivers on the following objectives:
• ADA-compliant public areas, entrance, restrooms, and elevator
• discrete teen space
• well-lit and engaging children’s library responsive to the needs of all families
• well-lit and easy to negotiate adult spaces and conversation areas
• lower level area with program rooms and small study rooms (these could be made
accessible to the public after hours or when not in use for Library programs)
• adjacent staff areas for more efficient workflows
• maker-space for creatives
What the expansion does not do is duplicate the spaces and functionality provided by other civic
organizations in the community. For example, there is no plan to build a state-of-art auditorium
and performance stage, elegant event spaces with catering kitchens, recording studio, or historic
archives.
Why not just repair the dome?
In 2017, the Library dome was inspected when unusual buckling was noticed on one of the
historic 1931 Nicolai Remisoff mural panels in the Library’s rotunda. The initial estimates to repair
the leaded-copper dome and restore the dome’s masonry substructure were of the magnitude
that the Library Board believed the most fiscally responsible course of action was to obtain a
feasibility study to assess and document all the building’s structural and systems issues. This
approach is similar to the Council’s recent direction to City staff to conduct a holistic assessment
of all City buildings and facilities. The Board wanted to end the piecemeal band-aid measures
being taken as each issue presented itself. The goal was to identify and prioritize the building’s
needs and develop a holistic improvement plan that would get out in front of the infrastructure
issues. In November 2017, a triage action was taken to wrap the dome at a cost of $8,900.
118
Lake Forest Library City Council Briefing 10.19.2020 4
In December 2018, the dome was wrapped for a second time at a cost of $22,600. Because of its
historical significance and prominence, the Library requested a full investigation of the dome and
its underlying limestone and brick substructure. In January 2019, HGA provided a conceptual
construction estimate of $743,983 for the dome and pedestal repair. The estimate was for the
low end of the repairs and depending on the type of water-proofing system under the copper
and the amount of stone repair, etc., it could be $900,000 to $1,000,000. The estimate included
a 15% design contingency and a 5% construction contingency but no provisions for the mural
panels.
As the second tarp nears end of life, the Library is currently pursing bids for a third wrapping of
the dome and investigating the possibility of proceeding with the dome even though it does not
address the Library’s needs. Although the dome could proceed as a stand-alone project, it would
be less costly to roll the dome into the entire improvement project. The project, exclusive of what
would be needed to in time and money to protect the murals, is conservatively estimated to be
a six-month project with significant scaffolding and disruption to the site. The length of time the
Library would need to close or be out of service to the public for safety reasons is still being
determined.
What are the potential sources of funding for the Library Capital Improvement Project?
The Library retained The Hodge Group to complete an assessment of the philanthropic and
government support for a $26 million capital improvement project during the fall of 2019 and
first quarter 2020. The results of the assessment were reported to the Library Board, the Mayor,
and senior city administrators in March 2020. The assessment concluded that the Library is
viewed as a historic icon and a valuable and vibrant city asset that provides outstanding and
relevant resources to the community despite the facility’s challenges. The feasibility study
determined that there is broad philanthropic support, provided
• the Library remains at its current location
• the 1931 Edwin Clark building is restored, revitalized, and expanded to meet the needs of
today’s library users
• an endowment established and the project is delivered via Lake Forest’s long-standing
tradition of public/private partnerships.
In early April, the Library was approached by private donors interested in making a
transformative lead gift to fund the restoration and expansion of the 1931 Edwin Clark building.
The Lake Forest Library Foundation received its 501(c)3 status and the Board of Directors was
seated to advance philanthropy in Fall 2020. The directors of the Foundation are: Diana Terlato,
President, Mark Saran, Vice President, L. Robert Pasquesi, Treasurer, Debbie Saran, and
Germaine Arnson, Secretary. The Hodge Group remains committed to the viability of the project.

The Hodge Group will be present to answer questions specific to the depth of its work, its
continued belief in the success of a campaign despite COVID-19, and in particular the nature of
the private philanthropy campaign.
Additional Expertise
As the Capital Improvement Project evolves, the Library will continue to work closely with
members of City staff and appropriate City Boards and Commissions to assure proper public
review and comment opportunities. Members of the Lake Forest community have volunteered
their expertise and the Library Board will involve these individuals for advice on the project
through the coming phases.
