October 17 2011 Agenda
PURPOSE AND ACTION REQUESTED: Staff requests that the City Council acknowledge receipt
of the FY2011 Treasurer’s Report.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: Pursuant to Illinois State Statute, a Treasurer’s Report must be
filed with the City Clerk, the County Clerk, and published within a Lake Forest newspaper
within six months after the end of each fiscal year. The report will be published in the October
27, 2011 edition of the Lake Forester.

B. Public Works Committee Report- Alderman Novit
1. Award of Bid for the South Park Pavilion, and Everett Park Classroom Roof
Replacements Included in the F.Y. 2012 Capital and TIF Funds
PRESENTED BY DAN MARTIN, SUPERINTENDENT OF PUBLIC WORKS
PURPOSE AND ACTION REQUESTED: Staff is requesting City Council authorization to award the
following two roof replacement bids for South Park Pavilion to Cedar Roofing Company, Inc.,
and the Everett Park Classroom to L. Marshall Roofing Company, Inc. The roof replacements
would be scheduled for completion by the end of November 2011.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: The South Park Pavilion roof is a cedar shake roof that staff
recommends to be replaced due to the large number of shakes that are deteriorated,
splitting, cupped, and/or are missing. Also, in many locations the felt underlayment is exposed
to the weather which causes the material to breakdown at a faster rate. The pavilion roof
replacement will be done using cedar shakes.
The Everett Park Classroom roof is a modified bitumen roofing system (asphalt roof) that
needs to be replaced primarily from the extensive damages to the roof seams, flashing, facia
boards and gutters caused by ice damming. The excessive ice damming along the roof
perimeter has created roof leaks. The ice damming problem is mainly a result of the existing
roof system having such a low insulation R-value of approximately 2.80 that allows for a great
deal of heat loss. The new roof system design will have an R-value of approximately 21 that
will significantly reduce the ice damming created by heat loss. In addition, the roof will be
replaced with a similar type of modified bitumen roofing system.
BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT: On September 27, 2011, staff received the following bids for these
roofs:
Company South Park Pavilion Bid
Amount
Everett Park Classroom Bid
Amount
Cedar Roofing Company $30,850 $40,685
L. Marshall Roofing $42,000 $36,000
Riddiford Roofing $36,803 $47,439
Knickerbocker Roofing $59,500 $53,000
All American Roofing $37,500 $118,300

October 17 2011 Agenda
After a detailed review of the lowest bidders by staff and the City’s consulting engineer, both
Cedar Roofing Company’s proposal and L. Marshall Roofing’s proposal met all of the required
project specifications and their references gave favorable responses.

RECOMMENDED ACTION: Award of bid for the South Park Pavilion to Cedar Roofing
Company, Inc. in the amount of $30,850 and the bid for the Everett Park Classroom to L.
Marshall Roofing, Inc. in the of $36,000. Additionally, staff is requesting a 5% contingency to
address unforeseen problems during the project in the amount of $1,542 and $1800,
respectively. Sufficient savings realized from other TIF Fund projects are available to cover the
$2,800 cost overage for the Everett Park Classroom roof.

ORDINANCES 8:40 p.m.
1. Consideration of a Recommendation from the Housing Trust Fund Board and Plan
Commission in Support of Amendments to Chapter 20A, Inclusionary Housing, of the
City Code. (Final Approval of the Ordinance.)
PRESENTED BY DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
CATHERINE CZERNIAK 847-810-3504
PURPOSE AND ACTION REQUESTED
On October 3, 2011, the City Council considered this matter and granted first reading of an
Ordinance approving amendments to Chapter 20A, Inclusionary Housing, subject to some
additional wording clarification by the City Attorney.
3
October 17 2011 Agenda
The Ordinance is now before the City Council for final approval. Copy beginning on page 26.
On September 14, 2011, the Plan Commission considered a unanimous recommendation
from the expanded Housing Trust Fund Board in support of amendments to Chapter 20A of
the City Code, Inclusionary Housing. The proposed amendments are detailed below.
The definition section is modified to provide clarification and to add a definition of
“moderate housing”. The inclusion of the “moderate” definition is a response to
comments from the community and the City Council suggesting that providing the
opportunity for the City’s inclusionary housing requirements to address the needs of
those with moderate incomes, in addition to those at lower incomes, may more
directly address the needs of Lake Forest seniors, families and employees of local
institutions.
The Code language is clarified to state that in no case, when calculating the required
number of affordable units, can the number be less than one unit. This is to address a
technical loophole in the Code.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
Chapter 20A of the City Code was originally adopted by the City Council in 2005 as part of a
series of actions taken by the Council in support of and to establish a framework for retaining
and adding to the diversity of housing in Lake Forest. This Chapter established a requirement
that new residential developments, that meet certain parameters, must construct affordable
units as part of the development. The Code provisions provide the opportunity, at the sole
discretion of the City Council, for a payment in lieu of on-site units.
BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT
These amendments simply provide additional tools for achieving and retaining a diversity of
housing in the community. No development project is initiated or contemplated with these
changes and no expenditure of funds is involved.
Recommended Action: Grant final approval of an Ordinance amending Chapter 20A,
Inclusionary Housing, of the City Code.
2. Approval of Code Amendment, Chapter 27-Park and Recreation Board
PRESENTED BY MARY VAN ARSDALE, DIRECTOR OF PARKS & RECREATION
PURPOSE AND ACTION REQUESTED: Staff requests Council approval of an ordinance
amending Chapter 27 of the City Code regarding the Park and Recreation Board terms and
duties.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: As part of the City’s ongoing review of various codes related to
Boards and Commissions, it was noted that the Park and Recreation Board Section 27 of the
City Code did not reflect current practices and could benefit from revising the term recital
portion of the ordinance. As a result, City staff began dialogue with the current Park Board
4
October 17 2011 Agenda
members and City attorney to address potential amendments. Attached on page 29 is the
amended version of Chapter 27 of the City Code that was prepared by Holland & Knight.
Section 27-15 “Establishment; Term of Office” specified 5-year terms for Park Board members.
The amended ordinance reflects reducing the term of Board members from 5 years to 2
years. This change will bring the service term more in line with other City Commissions and
Boards and will enhance the Caucus and City’s ability to attract candidates to the Park and
Recreation Board. Reducing the term was discussed by the current Park and Recreation
board members and they supported this change.
Section 27-16 entitled “Powers and Duties” also set forth the duties of the Park and Recreation
Board and indicates that they prepare an annual operating budget and program plan for
consideration by the City Council. This language does not reflect current fiscal or program
practices as that the annual operating budget is prepared by City staff and brought directly
to City Council for approval as part of its annual fiscal budget review and approval calendar.
All other copy within Chapter 27 is accurate and staff is not recommending changes to any
other portion of the ordinance.
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Staff requests Council approval to waive first reading and grant final
approval to amend Chapter 27 of the City Code regarding the Park and Recreation Board
terms and duties.

Lake Forest, IL 60045
Dear Cathryn:
I am writing to request permission from The City of Lake Forest to
decorate the community with red ribbons this year, October 24 –
November 8, in honor of Red Ribbon Week. The Red Ribbon Campaign
was started in 1985 to honor a fallen DEA agent, Kiki Camarena. The
ongoing mission of Red Ribbon Week is to encourage communities to
embrace a drug-free lifestyle. Red ribbons in our community will be
promoted as offering a reminder to parents to speak up and talk to
their children about smart choices when it comes to drugs and other
risky behavior. We will decorate with the help of CROYA, local Boy
Scout and Girl Scout troops, and other student groups and student
service clubs who will be supervised by leaders and parent volunteers
during both the decorating and removal process. I will be responsible
for the removal of the ribbons during the week of November 8.
In addition, I we would like to be on the City Council’s agenda on
October 17 to say a few words about the Red Ribbon week and the 4th
annual Red Ribbon Race on November 7 at Elawa Farms.
Sincerely,
Karen Cunningham

3. Council Committee Reports
A. Public Works Committee- Alderman Novit
1. Approval of an ordinance amending Chapter 44 of the City Code
regarding water shut off valves.
Director of Public Works, Michael Thomas requested City Council’s approval of an ordinance
that allows Public Works or outside contractual personnel to access, repair, or replace an
outside water shut valve commonly referred to as the “Buffalo Box” (b-box hereafter).
Development of this ordinance is in response to those property owners whom, for whatever
17
Proceedings of the October 3, 2011
Regular City Council Meeting
reason, do not pay their water bill after multiple notifications from the City. In cases such as
these, the City’s policy is to request Water & Sewer personnel to turn the property owner’s water
off via the b-box. If the b-box is inoperable, it must be repaired or replaced in order for the
water shut off to occur. The b-boxes are located on either public or private property. Costs to
repair the b-box would be paid entirely by the property owner prior to activating the water
service. Although based upon the size of the b-box, a typical replacement would cost
approximately $1,300 for City crews to perform the work.
The Public Works Committee reviewed the draft ordinance at its September 17, 2011 Public
Works Committee meeting. Committee members were concerned about sufficient notice
being given to property owners prior to the City (or a contractor) performing work on the b-box.
Staff clarified for the Committee that this ordinance also applies to those b-boxes that may
require maintenance for other reasons, not just resulting from an unpaid water bill.
Residents will be notified of the ordinance via their water bills that are received during the
months of October, November, and December.
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Staff recommends that City Council, if so desire, waive first reading and
grant final approval of an ordinance amending Chapter 44 of the City Code regarding water
shut off valves.
Alderman Morsch moved, seconded by Alderman Novit to waive first reading of an ordinance
amending Chapter 44 of the City Code regarding water shut off valves. Most carried
unanimously by voice vote.
Alderman Morsch moved, seconded by Alderman Novit to approve an ordinance amending

ORDINANCES
1. Consideration of a Recommendation from the Housing Trust Fund Board and Plan
Commission in Support of Amendments to Chapter 20A, Inclusionary Housing, of the
City Code. (Grant first reading of an Ordinance or, if Desired by the City Council, Waive
First Reading and grant final approval of the Ordinance.)
On September 14, 2011, the Plan Commission considered a unanimous recommendation from
the expanded Housing Trust Fund Board in support of amendments to Chapter 20A of the City
Code, Inclusionary Housing. The proposed amendments are detailed below.
The definition section is modified to provide clarification and to add a definition of
“moderate housing”. The inclusion of the “moderate” definition is a response to
comments from the community and the City Council suggesting that providing the
opportunity for the City’s inclusionary housing requirements to address the needs of those
with moderate incomes, in addition to those at lower incomes, may more directly
address the needs of Lake Forest seniors, families and employees of local institutions.
The Code language is clarified to state that in no case, when calculating the required
number of affordable units, can the number be less than one unit. This is to address a
technical loophole in the Code.
The proposed amendments are on pages 1 and 3 of the Chapter, no other changes are
proposed to the Chapter.
19
Proceedings of the October 3, 2011
Regular City Council Meeting
Chapter 20A of the City Code was originally adopted by the City Council in 2005 as part of a
series of actions taken by the Council in support of and to establish a framework for retaining
and adding to the diversity of housing in Lake Forest. This Chapter established a requirement
that new residential developments, that meet certain parameters, must construct affordable
units as part of the development. The Code provisions provide the opportunity, at the sole
discretion of the City Council, for a payment in lieu of onsite units.
Last fall, the City Council and the Housing Trust Fund Board had extensive discussions about how
to advance the City’s goal of assuring a diversity of housing stock in the community in a manner
that protects property values and preserves the community’s character. The Settlers’ Green
development under discussion at that time did not move forward. However, during those
discussions, the City Council reaffirmed its commitment to affordable housing so long as it is
achieved in a manner that is compatible with the community. In particular, the Council and
community stated support for assuring that any future affordable housing be targeted to meet
the needs of Lake Forest residents and local employees.
More extensive amendments to the Inclusionary Housing Chapter were presented to the Plan
Commission last April by the Chairman of the Housing Trust Fund Board. Based on the input from
the Plan Commission at that time, the Housing Trust Fund Board reconsidered the proposed
amendments and reduced the scope of the amendments to those now presented. These
amendments come to the Council with a unanimous recommendation from the Housing Trust
Fund Board in support of the amendments and with a vote of 6 to 1 by the Plan Commission in
support of the amendments.
These amendments simply provide additional tools for achieving and retaining a diversity of
housing in the community. No development project is initiated or contemplated with these
changes and no expenditure of funds is involved.
Alderman Palmer asked Community Director Czerniak if the entire city was ever surveyed about
affordable housing. He stated he would like to see this happen.
On the advice of Counsel, the Ordinance wording is being revised and Council was asked to
grant first reading only.
Recommended Action: Grant first reading of an Ordinance or, if Desired by the City Council,
Waive First Reading and grant final approval of the Ordinance.
Alderman Moore moved, seconded by Alderman Pandaleon to grant first reading of an
Ordinance amending Chapter 20A, Inclusionary Housing of the City Code. Motion carried
unanimously by voice vote.
2. Consideration of a Report and Recommendation from the Zoning Board of Appeals in
Support of a Variance from the Front Yard Zoning Setback for Property Located at 737
Woodlawn Avenue
On September 26, 2011, the Zoning Board of Appeals held a public hearing to consider a
request for a variance from the front yard setback requirement in the GR-3 zoning district for
property located at 737 Woodlawn Avenue. After hearing a presentation from the petitioner
and a recommendation from the Building Review Board in support of the requested variance,
the Board voted unanimously to recommend approval of the variance to the City Council.
20
Proceedings of the October 3, 2011
Regular City Council Meeting
This variance request is presented in conjunction with a proposal to demolish the existing house
and construct a replacement house on the property. The existing house has been identified by
the City as a distressed property due to lack of maintenance under a previous ownership. The
proposed demolition and replacement residence was unanimously approved by the Building
Review Board on September 7th.
The front yard variance will allow the replacement house to be setback 21 feet from the front
property line at the closest point, the bay window. The required front yard setback in the GR-3
zoning district is 40 feet. The variance as requested will set the replacement house back further
from the street than the existing house which is located 14.29 feet from the front property line.
The proposed location of the replacement house is generally consistent with the setbacks of
other homes along the street and is intended to maintain the character of the neighborhood
and avoid a gap in the streetscape. No other variances are required for this project.
Recommended Action: Waive first reading and grant final approval of an Ordinance authorizing
construction of a replacement residence located no closer than 21 feet to the front property line
at the point of furthest extension.
Alderman Morsch moved, seconded by Alderman Pandaleon to waive first reading of an
ordinance authorizing construction of a replacement residence located no closer than 21 feet
to the front property line at the point of furthest extension. Most carried unanimously by voice
vote.
Alderman Morsch moved, seconded by Alderman Novit to approve an ordinance authorizing
construction of a replacement residence located no closer than 21 feet to the front property
line at the point of furthest extension The following voted “Aye”; Aldermen Novit, Waldeck,
Moore, Pandaleon, Morsch, Schoenheider, Palmer and Adelman. The following voted “Nay”;
none. Motion carries.
3. Consideration of a Report and Recommendation from the Zoning Board of Appeals in
Support of a Variance from the Front Yard Zoning Setback for Property Located at 299
Rose Terrace
On September 26, 2011, the Zoning Board of Appeals held a public hearing to consider a
request for a variance from the front yard setback requirement in the R-2 zoning district for
property located at 299 Rose Terrace. After hearing a presentation from the petitioner, the
Board voted unanimously to recommend approval of the variance to the City Council. Several
neighboring property owners submitted letters in support of the project.
This variance is requested to allow replacement of an existing front porch. The existing front
porch is located 33 feet from the property line; the required setback distance is 40 feet. The
existing porch is non-conforming with respect to the front yard setback as a result of a change
to the zoning district after the house was constructed.
The proposed replacement porch maintains the setback of the existing porch. The new porch
design replaces the existing shed roof with a flat roof with railings and will result in an increase in
height of 9 inches over the existing porch. The one-story form of the porch will be retained. No
other variances are required for this project
21
Proceedings of the October 3, 2011
Regular City Council Meeting
Recommended Action: Waive first reading and grant final approval of an Ordinance authorizing
construction of a replacement front porch to be located in the footprint of the existing porch, no
closer than 33 feet to the property line.
Alderman Novit moved, seconded by Alderman Palmer to waive first reading of an ordinance
authorizing construction of a replacement front porch to be located in the footprint of the
existing porch, no closer than 33 feet to the property line . Motion carried unanimously by voice
vote.
Alderman Morsch moved, seconded by Alderman Novit to approve an ordinance authorizing
construction of a replacement front porch to be located in the footprint of the existing porch, no
closer than 33 feet to the property line. The following voted “Aye”; Aldermen Novit, Waldeck,
Moore, Pandaleon, Morsch, Schoenheider, Palmer and Adelman. The following voted “Nay”;
none. Motion carries.
NEW BUSINESS
1. Approval to purchase two (2) Multi Pay by Space Parking Pay Stations
Chief Joseph Buerger requested the approval of the use of TIF funds to purchase two (2) Multi
Pay by Space Parking Pay Stations for the Telegraph Road Train Station.
In preparation for this year’s budget the City Council was briefed on the deteriorating honor
boxes at the Telegraph Road Train Station used for daily parking payment. Replacement had
been deferred in the past, but now is causing loss of revenue due to the inability to enforce
sections of the lot. The City council authorized the purchase of two (2) multi pay by space
parking pay stations. The purchase amount was expected to exceed $20,000. Staff
implemented the city’s bid procedures of the fiscal policy.
On July 14, 2011, an invitation to bid was published. Staff met with potential bidders on site to
explain the needs of the city and show placement of the pay stations. Bid openings were on
August 1, 2011 with six bids being submitted. Staff conducted field evaluations, interviewed
references, analyzed the bid submissions for specification compliance and cost comparison
purposes. Staff from Police, Building Maintenance, Finance and IT departments was involved in
the process.
This purchase was provided for in the FY2012 Capital Improvement Plan. Budget Amount was
$35,000. Subsequently remaining TIF dollars in the amount of $30,000 was slotted for this
purchase with $5,000 remaining in the CIP. The recommended vendor is under budget. Total
Parking Solutions meets all the specifications, their office is local and has numerous municipalities
in this area using the Cale machine, so customers will be familiar with their operation and be
more consistent along the transit line. Reference reports were excellent and TPS was favored by
finance department and met all IT department requirements. Field inspection was superior to all
the other units in materials, esthetics, operation and customer use.
The table below shows the hardware, software and associated costs:
Vendor Model Bid Costs
Access Parking Systems Luke II $ 34,041
Automated Parking Technologies Luke II $ 28,062
Gen Cal Aura $ 29,545
Parkeon Strada $ 31,344
Total Parking Solutions Cale $ 33,280
VenTek venStation XL $ 36,465
22
Proceedings of the October 3, 2011
Regular City Council Meeting
The life expectancy of the unit is extensive as the product was bid with component part
construction. Whenever a component part fails it is replaced. This makes the cabinet
construction crucial for unit longevity. The Cale machine is the only unit with stainless steel
cabinet standard. Stainless steel is expected to last a lifetime. Units have been in operation for
as long as 14 years.
Specifications
Total Parking Solutions met all the specifications.
The lowest bidder, Automated Parking Technologies, did not use stainless steel in their unit nor is
stainless steel available as an option. Their vault design was specified at 0.12 and the Luke II
vault is 0.11 in thickness. The receipt printer was specified as a standard take ticket sensor. The
Luke II does not have this type of printer. The management software was specified to include
the ability to download a free Smart Phone Application for payment via the device. APT
reported this will be considered in future software releases.
References
Automated Parking Technologies - Five (5) contacts were made, City of Ann Arbor, City of
Milwaukee, City of Madison, Wisconsin Dept. of Revenue, Standard Parking. Of the 5 contacts
made, 3 had favorable reviews about the unit and Vender. One contact said that they didn’t
do business with the Vender or have any of their units. One contact said that she wasn’t familiar
with the unit and wasn’t sure what department or person took care of them. No maintenance or
service problems were noted. References did not contain full or accurate information.
Considerable work was done to make contact with customer.
Total Parking Solutions – Five (5) contacts were made, Glenview, Vernon Hills, Barrington,
Schaumburg, and Libertyville. All 5 of the contacts had favorable reviews of the unit and
vender. No maintenance or service problems were noted. Finance checked an additional user
and was very pleased with the report from the finance aspect.
Costs
Automated Parking Technologies was the lowest bidder at $28,062.
Total Parking Solutions was the fourth lowest bidder at $33,280.
Staff Preference
Automated Parking Technologies answered no to four specification requirements, but the only
areas of major concern were the unavailability of stainless steel and vault thickness. The other
no answers were minor in nature. The price was very reasonable and vendor stated they
dropped the price to do business with Lake Forest and enter the North Shore market and for
future expansion. References were generally poor. The unit’s functions will meet the needs of
the City and customers should find operation of the units simple.
Total Parking Solutions received the best rating; staff was very impressed with reference
response. Field evaluations were excellent, demonstrations were informative. Quality was the
highest and customer ergonomics was good. Service requests are few and when made are
completed in a timely manner. Finance liked this unit the best. It met all of IT concerns. Vendors
are local to the Chicago area and their customer list is heavily used in this area.
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Authorize purchase of two (2) Cale Multi Pay by Space Parking Pay
Stations from Total Parking Solutions in the amount of $33,280.

2. Award of Bid for the 2011 Fire Station #2 Mechanical Heating, Ventilation and Air
Conditioning (HVAC) Replacement Project
Dan Martin, Superintendent of Public Works requested City Council’s authorization to award the
bid for the 2011 Fire Station #2 HVAC Replacement Project to Ireland Heating & Air Conditioning.
The project to replace the existing mechanical systems would be completed in November 2011.
The existing Fire Station #2 HVAC system consists of four “split systems” providing heating and
cooling for the occupied areas and two unit heaters for the hose drying tower and the attic. The
determining factors to replace these units was as follows: (1) the increasing number of out of
service calls, (2) the bunk room cooling failed this past summer and needs to be replaced, and
(3) all the units are the same age and are at the end of their life cycles (18 years).
The proposed new HVAC system was engineered by Lakefront Engineering in Kenosha,
Wisconsin. The new design includes removing the four “split system” units to be replaced by four
new high efficiency furnaces along with four new AC condenser units which utilize the new
”greener” R-410A gas. The two unit heaters will be replaced with new high efficient unit heaters.
Installing the new system will not only increase efficiencies by reducing maintenance costs,
downtime from equipment failures and lower utility usage, the R-410A gas will provide a more
eco-friendly alternative to the current units.
On September 1, 2011, staff received the following bids for this project:
Company Bid Amount
Ireland Heating & Air Conditioning $54,650
Martin Petersen Company $62,592
Westside Mechanical Services $75,855
Amber Mechanical $106,500
Mechanical Concepts of Illinois $108,950
Staff and Lakefront Engineering reviewed the project scope and determined that Ireland
Heating & Air Conditioning’s proposal met all of the required project specifications and their
references gave favorable responses.
