FINANCE COMMITTEE
1. Approval of the FY2021 Annual Budget Summary and FY2021 Pay Plan
PRESENTED BY: James Morris, Finance Committee Chairman
And Elizabeth Holleb, Finance Director (847-810-3612)
PURPOSE AND ACTION REQUESTED: Staff recommends approval of the Annual Budget (in
summary form) and the Pay Plan for the Fiscal Year 2021 (May 1, 2020 to April 30, 2021). The
Comprehensive Fiscal Plan will be presented for City Council consideration at its May 18th
meeting.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: The City Council Finance Committee has reviewed various
components of the Comprehensive Fiscal Plan for FY2021 at several public meetings over the
past seven months. Due to significant changes required to address the financial impacts of
the COVID 19 pandemic and Governor’s stay-at-home order, the modified FY2021 Annual
Budget and FY2021 Pay Plan are presented for approval this evening. The Comprehensive
Fiscal Plan is being updated and will be made available to the City Council on or about May
11, for consideration on May 18.
The following changes have been made to the FY2021 Proposed Budget presented at the
March 12 Finance Committee meeting, most of which relate to projected impacts to the
City’s financials of COVID 19:
• FY2020 year-end estimates have been updated
• Compensation adjustments are now reflected within the operating department
budgets for all funds
• FY20 Transfer from General Fund to Capital Fund increased from $1.5 million to $2.0
million; additional FY20 surplus of $1 million set aside for COVID 19 related impacts;
FY21 projected transfer from the General Fund to the Capital Improvements Fund
reduced from $1.5 million to $300,000
• The following FY21 revenue projections were reduced as discussed at the April 20
Finance Committee meeting: Municipal Sales Tax, Home Rule Sales Tax, Income Tax
distributions from the State, Interest Income, Motor Fuel Tax Allotment, Hotel/Motel Tax,
Parks and Recreation Program Fees, Deerpath Golf Course Fees, Real Estate Transfer
Tax
• FY20 estimates and FY21 projected expenses for the Parks and Recreation Fund have
been revised to reflect the cancellation of spring activities. The FY21 budget currently
assumes that summer recreation programming will be held, but does not reflect the
associated fees to reflect the most conservative approach. Should summer programs
proceed, the City would receive unbudgeted revenue to largely offset these
expenses. Any resulting operating deficit at the end of FY2021 could be covered by
FY20 operating surplus of the General Fund.
• FY20 estimates and FY21 projected expenses for the Golf Course Fund reflects the
course closures through April 30 and modified operations beginning May 1. As with
the Parks and Recreation Fund, revenue estimates have been budgeted with the
2
Monday, May 4, 2020 City Council Agenda FIRST SESSION
most conservative approach and resulting operating deficit at the end of FY2021
could be covered by FY20 operating surplus of the General Fund.
• The following changes have been made to capital projects in the Capital
Improvements Fund
o Rosemary Ravine improvements have been included in the FY21 budget
($700,000)
o Burr Oak Storm Sewer improvements have been moved to FY22 ($4.3 million)
and $70,000 has been budgeted in FY21 to allow for additional design work
o Rockefeller Road Ravine design work has been moved to FY22 ($70,000)
As discussed by the Finance Committee on April 20, the City will include a standing item on its
City Council meeting agenda for the 2nd meeting of each month to receive an update on
COVID 19 impacts on the City’s budget. This will include ongoing analysis of the Parks and
Recreation Fund as well as the Golf Course Fund to closely monitor these operations over the
summer.

BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT: The proposed revenues for FY2021 total $87.525 million compared to
total expenditures for FY2021 of $87.083 million. The proposed FY21 budget is balanced with
all operating expenditures covered from current revenues and capital expenditures funded
from current revenues and reserves in excess of the City Council’s Fiscal Policy, with the
exceptions as noted for Parks and Recreation, as well as the Deerpath Golf Course. Careful
monitoring over the next several weeks should limit the operating deficits in those two funds.
A fund balance deficit projected for the Laurel/Western TIF Fund would be funded from
temporary inter-fund loans.

2. Annual Vendor Approval
PRESENTED BY: Elizabeth Holleb, Finance Director (847-810-3612)
PURPOSE AND ACTION REQUESTED: Staff requests approval of the vendors listed on page 44 for
FY2021.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: On September 19, 2011, the City Council approved Code
amendments revising the method for approving vendors. Consistent with the revised policy,
payments for services provided on an unspecified ongoing basis exceeding $20,000 annually
in aggregate are to be approved by the City Council as part of the budget process.
Modifications to the approval of vendors was approved by the City Council Finance
Committee on April 20. A City Code amendment will be brought to the City Council for
approval at a later date to align with the April 20 changes. The City Council approval
threshold for purchases will be increased from $20,000 to $25,000 effective May 1, 2020, and
the Code amendment will reflect this change.
The attached list identifies the vendors requested for approval for FY2021, with an indication
of their approvals for FY2016-FY2020, if applicable. The City Council will continue to approve
any single purchase over $20,000 (to be revised to $25,000) as specified in Chapter 38 of the
City Code.
BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT: Approval of the attached vendor list does not have an immediate
fiscal impact. The amounts designated for each vendor for FY2021 have been included in
the annual budget.
COUNCIL ACTION: Approval of the attached list of vendors (page 44) for Fiscal Year 2021.

Monday, May 4, 2020 City Council Agenda FIRST SESSION
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: The purpose is to select an engineering firm to perform an in-
depth study of all bridges owned by The City of Lake Forest. This includes approximately 25
bridges: 14 vehicular and 11 pedestrian. This study will include detailed inspections, non-
destructive testing, material sampling, and laboratory testing, as necessary. The data will then
be used to identify and prioritize repairs that may be required at each bridge.
Summary reports will be produced which will include recommendations for maintenance or
repairs to each bridge along with a cost estimate for those repairs. Estimates of repair and/or
replacement costs will be used to develop capital budgets for future planning.

BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT: The RFP package was available in early March with the proposals
submitted on March 26, 2020. A total of eleven firms acquired the RFP package and one
proposal was submitted that was reviewed by a committee of staff members.
WJE, Inc. is a well-respected consultant in conducting bridge inspections for necessary repairs
and has done this work for a number of municipalities in the Chicago area including The City
of Lake Forest. Unlike many engineering firms, WJE has their own testing facility so various
concrete and steel samples are analyzed with in-house staff, not outside sub-contractors. It is
for these reasons that staff believes WJE will provide the City with the detailed analysis it
needs to determine project priorities with future capital plans.
If awarded, fieldwork on this project is expected to begin in mid-May and be completed by
the end of July.

2. Approval of the Illinois Route 60 Bike Path Phase I Design Project to Bleck
Engineering in the Total Not-to-Exceed Amount of $48,000
PRESENTED BY: Michael Thomas, Director of Public Works
PURPOSE AND ACTION REQUESTED: The Public Works Committee and Staff recommends
awarding the Illinois Route 60 Bike Path Phase I Design Project to Bleck Engineering.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: The City is seeking to extend the existing bike path network in
Lake Forest so that it will connect to other bike paths west of the City. In order to do this the
City will have to place a path through the right-of-way of Route 60 and on a few private
properties along the right-of-way.
The City has already started developing concept designs for the bike path and has started
discussions with IDOT and the private property owners whose property the path will cross. Staff
and the recommended engineer will be working with the Community Development
Department and the field partner businesses to ensure the design and its location adheres to
parameters set forth in the recent Route 60 Master Plan.
The City has applied in the past for grant funding to complete the engineering and
construction but has not been successful. Staff believes that once the Phase I design is
completed and approved by IDOT the project will be competitive for grant funding.

Printing Services of the City Dialogue Community-Wide Newsletter to $28,179.
STAFF CONTACT: Mike Strong, Assistant City Manager (810-3680)
PURPOSE AND ACTION REQUESTED: City staff is requesting City Council authorize the increased
amount of $1,419 over the original purchase order amount of $26,760. The increased amount
was necessary to cover unanticipated expenses related to design edits, and copy
adjustments that accumulated over the fiscal year, made to the Dialogue, the City’s
quarterly community-wide newsletter.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: The City of Lake Forest regularly contracts with outside service
providers to perform professional printing services for various projects including the quarterly
Dialogue Newsletter, Recreation Seasonal Brochure, and the Dickinson Hall News Brief. In late
summer 2018, the City issued an RFP for professional printing services specifically for the
Dialogue Newsletter. On May 20, 2019, the City Council authorized the City Manager to enter
into a three-year Agreement, beginning in FY2020 with Lake County Press, Inc., at a base cost
estimate of $26,760 per year for four issues.
The base price per issue is $6,690, includes final proof drafting, and printing of the Dialogue
Newsletter. This cost does not include any design edits or adjustments that are necessary to
finalize the proof for printing. Adjustments necessary beyond these services, which may
include swapping images, changing text, or adding design elements, are an additional cost.
Additional funding capacity is available within the budget to account for these charges;
however, the original purchase order approval and entry at the beginning of the fiscal year
did not account for these unforeseen and unanticipated changes necessary throughout the
year.

5. Request Approval to Purchase a Replacement Ambulance by AEV Inc., in a Not-to-
Exceed Amount of $290,000 via the Houston Galveston Area Council (HGAC)
Cooperative Purchasing Program
STAFF CONTACTS: Pete Siebert, Fire Chief (810-3864)
Michael Thomas, Director of Public Works (810-3540)
PURPOSE AND ACTION REQUESTED: Staff is requesting City Council’s approval to purchase this
replacement ambulance as part of a larger fleet restructuring plan devised by the Fire
Department. The replacement ambulance will replace a 15-year-old ambulance (2005
Horton Ambulance). If approved, this would be the first new ambulance in the Fire
Department’s fleet since 2015.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: The Fire Department has diligently worked to devise a fleet
restructuring plan over the past three years. The Department believes the plan is fiscally
responsible, while also providing the necessary apparatuses for the Department. The fleet
restructuring plan includes updating the Department’s four ambulances over the next several
years. This begins by replacing the Department’s 2005 Horton International Ambulance in FY
‘21. The Department’s first responders need to have dependable and functional ambulances
to provide the highest level of service possible to the residents and visitors of Lake Forest. The
2005 Horton Ambulance does not provide a good working platform for patient care due to
the overall poor ride quality. Many attempts have been made to improve the ride quality to
a level that would allow for patient comfort and the ability to adequately care for them
during transport; these attempts have failed to accomplish that. The ambulance has been
moved to a reserve capacity to limit the times it has to be used for patient care.
The Fire Department has worked with the Public Works Department to develop a vehicle
replacement plan, which includes replacement of this ambulance. The plan includes
repurposing this vehicle to the Streets Section in Public Works, installing a cabinet body on the
chassis, and replacing an older vehicle. The Department has taken a measured approach
that includes purchasing of ambulances on a rotating basis to help maximize the useful
service life of these vehicles.
The Fire Department put together an ambulance committee to work on designing and
purchasing the new ambulance. The committee is comprised of members of all ranks in the
Department and they have worked diligently over the last 2-3 months to design an apparatus
that is affordable and suits the specific needs of the Department. The ambulance committee
10
Monday, May 4, 2020 City Council Agenda FIRST SESSION
began with clear direction not to exceed the budgeted amount of $290,000. The purchase
price includes a new patient cot and auto-loader.
The committee reviewed multiple ambulances available from different vendors. The
committee narrowed their process down to two vendors, and ultimately only AEV was able to
provide a vehicle that met the Department’s needs and budget. AEV is a member of the
Houston Galveston Area Council (HGAC) Cooperative Purchasing Program, and meets all
the requirements outlined in the City’s purchasing directive.
BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT: The funds for this purchase were approved in the FY21 CIP budget for
$290,000. Although the price of $274,138 is under the requested amount, there may be some
minor changes during the manufacturing process of the vehicle. This is a custom-built
ambulance, and the difference between the price and requested amount will allow for any
additional funds needed for any unanticipated changes.
Has City staff obtained competitive pricing for proposed goods/services? No
If no, indicate the specific exception requested:
Administrative Directive 3-5, Section 9.1D – Government Joint Purchases

PURPOSE AND ACTION REQUESTED: The Public Works Committee and Staff is recommending
City Council approve an agreement with Hey & Associates to provide bluff pre-design

Public Works Committee 4/28/2020 Reviewed and Recommended
Finance Committee 11/12/2019 Included in Five-Year Capital Plan
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: With bluff stabilizations completed on both the north and south
ends of Forest Park, staff and contractual engineers have been monitoring the middle portion
of the park. Inclinometers have been installed and annual readings have been recorded for
the past three years in three separate locations. The inclinometers determine bluff movement
over a defined period of time. The ongoing data review over the past three years has
revealed two areas of concern that have already had a few shallow slides just below the
parks’ table land. The first area is just above the north pavilion and the second is slightly south
of the Spring Lane entrance of the Ring Road.
On March 6, 2020, City staff initiated a request for proposal process (RFP hereafter) to identify
and recommend a firm to continue the important bluff monitoring efforts and develop
engineered pre-design options for the two areas of concern. These pre-design options will be
vetted by the City Engineer, City staff, and City Council’s sub-committee(s) as part of the
City’s annual capital budgeting process. More specifically, the RFP called for geotechnical
assessments, survey monitoring of the movement areas, bluff condition observations, slope
stability review, slope condition evaluation, and a feasibility study that will identify restoration
concepts with accompanying cost estimates. The primary focus of this study is to provide the
City with a recommended pre-design of proactive measures and their accompanying cost
estimates, to address the two areas that have slid or moved over the past year.
BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT: Proposals for the bluff monitoring and pre-design services were
received on March 26, 2020 and reviewed by a committee of City staff. A total of five firms
submitted proposals for the project.

Similar to all RFP’s submitted for services, City staff formed an internal RFP review committee to
score and rank each firm’s qualifications, approaches, and costs.

Monday, May 4, 2020 City Council Agenda FIRST SESSION
The RFP review committee was in agreement that the low-cost proposal from Terracon did
not meet nor clearly provide the required deliverables as outlined in the RFP’s scope of work.
Terracon’s proposal was difficult to understand, provided lump sum ranges, and did not
define the number of readings taken from the bluff monitor inclinometers.
Hey & Associates has a multi-disciplinary staff of engineers, scientists, landscape architects
and support staff that collaborate to design creative solutions, and implement projects that
are grounded in the fundamental principles of water resources, environmental science, and
sustainability. They recently acted as the project manager and engineer for Lake County
Forest Preserves’ McCormick Ravine Remediation. This included a redesign of a previous
ravine stabilization project designed by the Army Corps. Hey & Associate’s proposal included
a partnership with KSingh & Associates, Inc. to provide a more detailed analysis of the bluff.
With more than 35 years of experience in environmental and geotechnical engineering,
KSingh’s lead engineer has prepared, managed, and reviewed numerous projects relative
to environmental, geotechnical, hydraulic, and hydrogeological investigations. KSingh &
Associates is well versed in foundation design, geotechnical investigations, and slope stability.
It is for these reasons that staff is recommending the City enter into an agreement with Hey &
Associates for these services.

Monday, May 4, 2020 City Council Agenda FIRST SESSION
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: At the northwest corner of the intersection of Illinois Road and
Stonegate Lane there is no curb and the edge of the pavement and the landscaped area
next to the edge of pavement are in a constant need of repair. By installing curb and a
storm water collection system, the City can protect this area from further damage and
potential flooding.
On Illinois Road east of Mayflower Road, there is a low point in the pavement where the road
crosses over a ravine. The roadway currently has no curb and when it rains, a large volume of
rain water runs to this point and causes severe erosion of the parkway. By installing a curb and
improving the storm sewer system at this location, the City can prevent future erosion and
damage to the ravine.

BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT: Bids for Illinois Road and Stonegate Lane Curb Improvements and

The following is a summary of the bids received for this contract:
Company Name Dollar Amount Bid
Alliance Contractors Inc $47,815.00
Although only one bid was received, multiple contractors had downloaded the plan set and
specifications. Staff contacted a few of the contractors to inquire why they did not submit a
bid. The contractors’ overall responses were that each jobsite was very small in nature and
that they as companies were set-up for larger jobs. Alliance Contractors Inc has worked in
Lake Forest on previous contracts with satisfactory results. The as-bid price for the Illinois Road
and Stonegate Lane Curb Improvements portion of this bid is approximately $1,200 less than
the estimated cost for that portion.
If awarded, work on this project is expected to begin in June and be completed by the end
of July. Property owners living near the vicinity of the construction work will be notified in
advance of the start of construction.
The City’s Engineering staff will provide oversight through daily inspections.
Below is an estimated summary of the Project Budget:
The Illinois Road and Stonegate Lane Curb Improvement project will be funded from the F.Y.
’21 Non-Ravine Culvert & Ditch Improvements capital account. Funding for the Mayflower
Ravine Crossing project will be funded from the F.Y. ‘20 Bridge Maintenance and
Miscellaneous Repairs capital account.

STAFF CONTACT: Robert W. Ells, Superintendent of Engineering (847-810-3555)
PURPOSE AND ACTION REQUESTED: The Public Works Committee and Staff recommends
awarding the 2020 Concrete Flatwork Project to A-Lamp Concrete Contractors, Inc.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: This project is to place concrete pavement at two specific
locations at both the Municipal Services Building and at the Lake Forest Compost Center.
These areas are currently gravel or dirt surfaces. City-owned equipment that is currently
being stored on these surfaces is suffering from significant corrosion and deterioration caused
by being on these limestone surfaces. The purpose of placing concrete on these two
locations is to help prevent the further deterioration of the City-owned equipment. Installing
concrete over these two surfaces will ultimately save the City on repairs and early
replacement of this equipment.

A-Lamp Concrete Contractors has worked in Lake Forest on previous contracts with
satisfactory results.
If awarded, work on this project is expected to begin in June and to be completed by the
middle of July. The public should not be affected by this work because all work is to be
completed on City-owned property that the public does not have access to include an area
in the back of the Compost Center near the large green shed.
The City’s Engineering staff will provide oversight through daily inspections.
Staff is recommending City Council approve the low bid contractor as well as 10%
contingency. This contingency will only be used if necessary for either location. If the full
contingency is used, the project would be $3,773 over budget. This overage will be covered
from savings in other FY ‘21 capital improvement projects. Below is an estimated summary of

NOTE: FY20 projected deficit is due to the cancellation of spring activities and programs due to the COVID 19 pandemic and
Governor's stay-at-home order. For FY21, the City has opted to budget for summer activities and program expenses, but not
the associated revenues, as a very conservative projection. It is anticipated that if summer activities can be conducted,
revenue would increase, and if not, expenses would decrease.

DEERPATH GOLF COURSE FUND
NOTE: FY20 projected deficit is due to the opening date of the course being delayed as a result of the COVID 19 pandemic
and Governor's stay-at-home order. For FY21, the City has opted to budget expenses for a May 1 opening but revenue for a
June 1 opening, as a very conservative projection. It is anticipated that if the course is open on May 1, revenue would
increase, and if not, expenses would decrease.

STAFF CONTACT, Jason Wicha, City Manager
PURPOSE AND ACTION REQUESTED: It is requested that the City Council extend the Declaration

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: Over the past month, the U.S. Government and the State of
Illinois have issued multiple orders declaring a state of emergency over the country and the
State of Illinois in order to address the impact from the global pandemic from COVID-19. In
order to address the impact this pandemic has had on the City of Lake Forest, Mayor

3. Award the Lake Forest portion of the Municipal Partnership Initiative (MPI) 2020
Concrete Curb and Sidewalk Replacement Project with Schroeder and Schroeder,
Inc. for a Not-to-Exceed Amount of $90,000.
STAFF CONTACT: Robert W. Ells, Superintendent of Engineering (847-810-3555)
PURPOSE AND ACTION REQUESTED: The Public Works Committee and Staff recommends
approval of a one-year extension of the 2019 Concrete Curb and Sidewalk Replacement
Project with Schroeder and Schroeder, Inc. for the 2020 MPI Joint Curb and Sidewalk
Replacement Project.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
This project is the City’s annual Sidewalk Replacement program that replaces hazardous and
deteriorated sections of sidewalk, curb, and gutter.
Based on the City Sidewalk Survey and requests for replacement of concrete sidewalk and
curb from residents and businesses, the City’s Engineering staff prioritizes the locations for
replacement based on the severity of their condition on an annual basis.
City staff have previously briefed the City Council on Municipal Partnership Initiative (MPI), a
program that takes advantage of economies of scale by securing low bid prices among
neighboring municipalities who bid similar projects each year. In 2019, the City joined forces
with Lake Bluff, Highland Park, Glencoe, Lincolnwood, and Winnetka to have a joint bid for
the 2019 Concrete Curb and Sidewalk Replacement Project.
PROJECT REVIEW/RECOMMENDATIONS:

BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT: If approved, this will be the 1st of 2 option years on this contract. The
2020 contract unit prices will not increase over last year for the 2019 contract per the terms of
the 2019 contract. The other communities that were part of this joint bid in 2019 are interested
in renewing for 2020 but have not committed to it at this time.
If awarded, work on this project is expected to begin in June and be completed by the end
of August. Property owners living near the vicinity of the construction work will be notified in
advance of the start of construction.
The City’s Engineering staff will provide oversight through daily inspections.

for a Not-to-Exceed Amount of $90,000.
4. Award the Lake Forest portion of the Municipal Partnership Initiative (MPI) 2020
Crack Sealing Project with Patriot Pavement Maintenance, Inc. for a Not-to-Exceed
Amount of $40,000.
STAFF CONTACT: Robert W. Ells, Superintendent of Engineering (847-810-3555)
PURPOSE AND ACTION REQUESTED: The Public Works Committee and Staff recommends
approval of a one-year extension of the 2019 Crack Sealing Project with Patriot Pavement
Maintenance, Inc. for the 2020 MPI Joint Crack Sealing Project
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
Cracks in pavements allow moisture to penetrate the surface causing premature pavement
material failure. To minimize the water infiltrating the pavement base, crack sealing with a hot
sealant is required. Crack sealing is a practical and cost effective measure and is an essential
part of a good pavement maintenance program.
City staff have previously briefed the City Council on MPI, a program that takes advantage of
economies of scale, for securing low bid prices, among neighboring municipalities who bid
similar projects each year. In 2019, the City joined forces with the Villages of Wheeling,
Bannockburn, Palatine and Lincolnshire to have a joint bid for the 2019 Crack Sealing Project.
Based on the positive performance feedback from the communities the group has elected to
exercise the first option year of the contract for 2020. The City plans to do approximately
50,000 feet of crack sealing on public streets in 2020.

COUNCIL ACTION: Award the Lake Forest portion of the Municipal Partnership Initiative (MPI)
2020 Crack Sealing Project with Patriot Pavement Maintenance, Inc. for a Not-to-Exceed
Amount of $40,000.

STAFF CONTACT: Robert Ells, Superintendent of Engineering (810-3555)
PURPOSE AND ACTION REQUESTED: The Public Works Committee and Staff recommends
approval of a one-year extension of the 2017 Joint Sewer Lining Project with Hoerr
Construction for the 2020 MPI Joint Sewer Lining Project.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: The City maintains approximately 139 miles of mainline sanitary
sewer and 219 miles of storm sewer throughout the City. The pipe material that was
predominantly used in the past to construct the sewers was a clay material. The clay pipes
are most susceptible to deterioration from natural elements and root intrusions resulting in
broken pipes and leaking joints. With a deteriorated pipe, the functionality of the pipe to
carry the flows is compromised thereby creating surcharges and/or backups.
This reconstruction technique is done without the expensive and disruptive excavation
process. The process provides for the insertion of a special liner inside the pipe, creating a
new smooth-surfaced, long-lasting pipe within the old sewer.
This project was competitively bid in 2017 under the Municipal Partnering Initiative (MPI ) with
Mundelein and Highland Park. The contract allowed for three option years if recommended
by the Municipal Partners.
