MINUTES
Chairman Waldeck moved to approve the September 19, 2016 Public Works
Committee meeting minutes. Alderman Newman seconded the motion, which
carried unanimously.
III. REVIEW AND APPROVAL OF THE MCCORMICK RAVINE STORMWATER
IMPROVEMENT PROJECT
Director Thomas explained that the condition of the McCormick Ravine is very
poor; therefore, storm water management improvements are necessary. Bleck
Engineering was selected by the City to assess the ravine. Director Thomas
stated that the McCormick Ravine Stormwater Improvement Project is estimated
to cost approximately $150,000. He continued explaining that a specific section
of the McCormick Ravine is in especially poor condition. This specific section is
located in the middle of the ravine. Director Thomas noted that stormwater from
both the Villa Turicum and portions of the Whispering Oaks subdivision drain into
this ravine. There are currently a few storm structures in the ravine to facilitate
this stormwater drainage.
Director Thomas explained that efforts have been made to maintain the
McCormick Ravine for years; however, it now requires some significant capital
investment. Staff recommended that the McCormick Ravine Stormwater
Improvement Project begin shortly, as the Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE) is
currently restoring several ravines in this area. The ACOE has contracted John
Keno and Company, Inc. to complete the ravine restoration. John Keno and
Company, Inc. has worked in Lake Forest on similar projects, as well. The City
recently went out to bid for the McCormick Ravine Stormwater Improvement
Public Works Committee Meeting – October 10, 2016
Page 2 of 6
Project and John Keno and Company, Inc. submitted the lowest bid. Staff will
present all received bids to City Council and then request approval to proceed.
Director Thomas explained that staff will also be requesting a 5% contingency to
cover any unforeseen problems. Mr. Thomas explained that this is lower than the
standard contingency, but by accepting a lower contingency, the project will
remain under the initially projected total cost. Alderman Moreno then asked
what the standard contingency is. Director Thomas responded explaining that a
10% contingency is standard. Alderman Moreno stated that it may be more
prudent to maintain a 10% contingency, even if doing so exceeds initial
estimates for the project cost. Chairman Waldeck stated that she agreed.
Director Thomas then explained that John Keno and Company, Inc. submitted a
significantly lower bid than the other contractors. Alderman Newman stated
that it is imperative that standard policy regarding contingencies be maintained
for consistency.
Alderman Moreno inquired about other geographical markers near the
McCormick Ravine. Mr. Myers responded that the aforementioned identified
outflow is east of Sheridan Road. He also explained that there are many areas in
the ravine where gullies have formed. These gullies are eroding into the landfill.
This is a high concern of the City. The McCormick Ravine Stormwater
Improvement Project directly addresses the formation of gullies, as well as,
grading and seeding. The work to be completed will also provide a water
control structure, which will slow the flow of stormwater, similar to a check dam.
The City will use rock and stone similar to the rock and stone used by the ACOE in
the surrounding ravines. Alderman Moreno asked why other ravine areas are not
being addressed. Mr. Myers responded explaining that the permit process
involved in ravine restoration is extensive. Permits for the restoration of the
McCormick Ravine are currently valid; therefore, it is most efficient to address this
ravine at this time. Furthermore, traffic flows have adapted to the increased
traffic in the area, caused by the ravine restoration efforts of the ACOE. Mr.
Myers then explained that after completing the McCormick Ravine Stormwater
Improvement Project, the area will be transferred to Lake Forest Open Lands.
The City will retain the area near the former landfill, though. Alderman Moreno
inquired about a landfill cap being present at the landfill. Mr. Myers responded
that there is a landfill cap present. He also stated that the Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) closely monitors this area. Chairman Waldeck asked if
there were any questions. There were not any questions.
Chairman Waldeck moved to approve the proposal and recommend its
approval to the City Council. Alderman Moreno seconded the motion. The
motion passed unanimously.
IV. UPDATE ON LEAD SERVICE LINE LETTERS AND CITY BUILDING LEAD WATER TEST
RESULTS
Mr. Martin explained that at the September 19, 2016 Public Works Committee
meeting, a second lead service line notification mailing was discussed. While it
was initially suggested to send the mailing immediately after that meeting, staff
Public Works Committee Meeting – October 10, 2016
Page 3 of 6
decided to delay the mailing. A Resolution was presented at the City Council
meeting on October 3, 2016 regarding waiving permit fees for lead service line
replacements for the next two years. Staff determined that it was important to
include information regarding the approved Resolution in the notification;
therefore, the mailing could not be completed until after October 3, 2016. Mr.
Martin stated that notifications are going to be mailed to both residents that
responded to the initial mailing and residents that have not yet responded to the
initial mailing. These notifications will also include information regarding the
approved Resolution. Chairman Waldeck asked if residents have indicated an
interest in lead service line replacement. Mr. Martin responded that residents
have expressed an interest in replacement. He also explained that the
language in the notifications referencing the approved Resolution will be very
similar to the language of the Resolution, itself. Chairman Waldeck stated that it
is important to keep language consistent. Alderman Moreno asked if the Public
Works Committee previously discussed an approved plumbing contractor list or
the collaboration of replacement services. Chairman Waldeck stated that it
may be in the best interest of neighboring homeowners to bid their lead service
line replacement projects together, to receive the most competitive pricing. Mr.
Martin explained that staff has drafted a qualified plumbing contractor list. Also,
staff will encourage residents to do their due diligence by requesting estimates
from multiple plumbing contractors. Chairman Waldeck explained that the City
has taken this approach with other matters in the past.
On a separate but related note, Mr. Martin explained that the City received
water sample results from consumable fixtures at City buildings. He explained
that of the 103 completed water samples, two water samples indicated that the
lead levels in the water exceeded the EPA threshold of 15 parts per billion. One
water sample was from a drinking fountain at the Lake Forest-Lake Bluff Historical
Society building. The organization has been in the process of vacating the
building; therefore, public have not had access to the drinking fountain for some
time. The other water sample was at Vollweiler Hall at the Grove Campus. This
water sample indicated especially high lead levels; however, the water sample
came from an abandoned sink in an art closet, which has not been functioning
for some time. Both consumable fixtures were taken out of service immediately
after the water sample results were received. Staff has decided to entirely
remove the sink at Vollweiler Hall. Chairman Waldeck complemented staff on
their efforts regarding this matter.
V. ON-SITE REVIEW (TRIANGLE PARK ON DEERPATH ROAD) OF GAS LIGHT OPTIONS
Mr. Martin explained that at the Public Works Committee meeting on February
16, 2016, it was requested that staff determine additional maintenance cost
information for gas street lights. City policies regarding gas street light fixture
maintenance have changed substantially over time, which subsequently
changes costs. Following the direction provided by the Public Works Committee,
the Public Works Department has been working on restoring damaged gas street
light fixtures in the non-historical areas of the City.
Public Works Committee Meeting – October 10, 2016
Page 4 of 6
The globes of the gas street lights have been in exceptionally poor condition
recently. At the Public Works Committee meeting on February 16, 2016,
Alderman Tack suggested that staff work on an exhibition that displays gas street
light fixtures with different globes and lights. Staff has completed the exhibition in
Triangle Park. The street light fixtures on display are as follows: a street light fixture
which has been converted from gas to electric utilizing a L.E.D. bulb with a
stained glass globe; a gas street light fixture with a new glass globe; a gas street
light fixture with a new plastic globe; and a gas street light fixture with a stained
plastic globe. The plastic globes are less expensive than the glass globes. Mr.
Martin noted that new globes, glass or plastic, for all of the street light fixtures in
the City, would be an expensive project; however, new globes can be phased in
over time. Budget requests for globe replacements can be spread over years
through the Operating Budget process. Installing new globes will be labor
intensive, as well. Chairman Waldeck asked how long plastic globes last. Mr.
Martin responded that plastic globes become dirty from the constant gas burn
and are easier to simply replace. Glass globes however can be polished and
brought back to a new like condition, however this takes a good amount of
labor to do so.
Mr. Martin explained that staff has not been able to determine when the City
converted from glass globes to plastic globes. Alderman Newman asked why it
was decided to convert from glass globes to plastic globes. Mr. Martin
responded that the decision was based on overall costs. Alderman Moreno
asked if there is a plastic globe product that does not yellow. Mr. Martin
responded that no there are not and that not every type of plastic globe can be
used, due to the heat from the light. He also explained that if City Council
decided to pursue the polycarbonate plastic globes, there could be a rotation
schedule for replacement. Alderman Newman inquired about the terms of the
rotation schedule. Mr. Martin responded that he would need to consult the
Streets Section personnel for that information. He then explained that the Streets
Section has been working on matching the L.E.D. illumination to the gas light
illumination. Matching the illumination is possible by frosting the lens of the L.E.D.
light.
Mr. Martin explained that the most significant challenge will be installing
electrical infrastructure for the L.E.D. street lights. At Triangle Park, the necessary
electrical infrastructure is present. Alderman Newman if the current gas
infrastructure would be capped and left in place. Mr. Martin responded that the
gas connections lead to a gas main. The gas main would be capped; therefore,
there is not a gas copper line left containing gas. Following this protocol would
be best practices. Mr. Martin also explained that the L.E.D. street light fixtures
have a dimming feature. Wattage could be customized to specific areas in the
City. Chairman Waldeck stated that her concern is that the L.E.D. bulbs will be
too bright. Mr. Martin stated that brightness can be controlled with the dimming
feature. The L.E.D. bulbs would be dusk to dawn. Currently, the cost of gas for
each gas street light is $143 per year. If the City transitioned to 2 to 3 watt
electric bulbs, the cost of electricity for each L.E.D. street light would be $10 per
Public Works Committee Meeting – October 10, 2016
Page 5 of 6
year. This cost does not include infrastructure costs, though. Mr. Martin
explained that if electrical infrastructure costs are a significant barrier to entry,
then the City should consider an ‘Adopt-a- Light Program’, where a cable is
installed from a household to a street light and a homeowner assists with costs.
Chairman Waldeck asked if the ‘Adopt-a-Light Program’ is inherited by
homebuyers, when a property is sold. Mr. Martin explained that staff will consult
with the City Attorney for clarification. Chairman Waldeck asked if gas street
lights require more maintenance then electric street lights. Mr. Martin stated that
gas street lights require more maintenance.
The Public Works Committee proceeded to Triangle Park.
Mr. Miller asked if the brightness of the street light fixture which has been
converted from gas to L.E.D. could be adjusted. He stated that even with the
stained glass globe, the illumination was rather bright. Director Thomas stated
that the brightness could be adjusted. Mr. Martin stated that a 2 to 3 watt bulb
was installed in the street light fixture. Chairman Waldeck stated that the
brightness needed to adjusted, as the light was too bright. Mr. Miller asked what
the purpose of the discussion was regarding the street lights. Director Thomas
stated that the Public Works Committee is comparing the L.E.D. installation and
the gas lights, as well as, glass globes and plastic globes. Chairman Waldeck
stated that vandalism of the glass globes is a concern.
The Public Works Committee proceeded to the gas street light fixture with the
new glass globe. Mr. Martin stated that the glass globe was replaced a few
days prior. He then stated that the mantles of the light fixtures on display were
also replaced a few days prior. Mr. Miller stated that the glass globe makes the
light more diffuse. Chairman Waldeck agreed. The Public Works Committee
then proceeded to the gas street light fixture with the new plastic globe. Mr.
Martin stated that the plastic globe will last longer with an L.E.D. bulb. The gas
heat accelerated the discoloration of the plastic globe. Chairman Waldeck
asked if the L.E.D. bulb brightness could be increased in areas of high traffic. Mr.
Martin responded that L.E.D. bulb brightness could be increased and decreased.
Director Czerniak stated that the most received compliant from residents is the
brightness of street lights. Mr. Martin stated that the technology exists to modify
the color of the light. This technology did not exist in prior years. Alderman
Newman stated that there will be a conversion cost, if electric street lights were
pursued. Chairman Waldeck asked how long L.E.D. bulbs last. Mr. Martin
explained that L.E.D. bulbs are currently on a 10-year replacement schedule.
Alderman Moreno asked how long plastic globes lasted. Mr. Martin explained
that the plastic globes last approximately 5 to 8 years.
The Public Works Committee proceeded to the gas street light fixture with the
stained plastic globe. Director Czerniak asked if the plastic globe could be
cleaned, rather than replaced. Mr. Martin responded stating that cleaning all
globes would be very labor intensive. The cost of cleaning all globes would likely
far exceed the cost of replacing the plastic globes. Mr. Miller asked if the City
Public Works Committee Meeting – October 10, 2016
Page 6 of 6
could use a contractor for globe cleaning services. Mr. Martin explained that
the City would still need to pay prevailing wage. Again, the cost of cleaning all
globes would likely far exceed the cost of replacing the plastic globes.
Chairman Waldeck explained that staff should proceed by determining all costs
for the infrastructure, installation, and maintenance of LED lights with plastic
globes for all 429 gas lights. She then stated that research regarding an ‘Adopt-
a-Light’ program should be delayed until all cost data is prepared. Alderman
Tack, Alderman Newman, and Alderman Newman agreed. Director Czerniak
stated that light and globe replacements should be staggered, or phased in.
Mr. Miller stated that solar powered lighting should be researched. Chairman
Waldeck agreed. She then stated that respective cost estimates should be
prepared, as well. Alderman Newman stated that the lights should be classified
into two categories: lights with readily available access to electricity and other
lights (e.g. lights without readily available access to electricity and the Historic
District). Director Thomas agreed.
VI. OPPORTUNITY FOR PUBLIC COMMENT
Ms. Kerr of the Lake Forest Preservation Foundation stated that gas street lights
are very important in the Historical District of the City. Residents feel strongly
about the gas street lights, which are a critical feature of the Historic District.
Chairman Waldeck stated that she appreciated Ms. Kerr participating in the
Public Works Committee meeting. Ms. Kerr responded stating that the objective
of the Lake Forest Preservation Foundation is to preserve the visual character of
the community.
