Analysis: The Public Works and Engineering Department utilizes outside contractors to provide tree maintenance services including tree pruning, removal, stump grinding, brush chipping, and emergency services as needed. This service was competitively bid in 2019 with award to Landscape Concepts Management, Inc. who have performed well throughout the contract thus far. With the current contract set to expire Public Works staff reached out to communities to inquire on pricing trends for their recently opened tree maintenance bids. Feedback from these communities shows an increase in operational costs for tree maintenance bids in the range of 20% to 35% with low bid pricing and as much as 50% for other bids received. Before putting this contract out to bid for 2023, staff reached out to Landscape Concepts Management to inquire if they would be willing to add an additional contract year at current pricing. Landscape Concepts Management is willing to add another year at current 2022 pricing. Recommendation: We recommend, in the best interests of the City, approval of the first amendment to the Tree Maintenance 2020-2022 contract to Landscape Concepts Management, Inc., 31745 N.

Bartholomew, City Manager From: Dorothy Wisniewski, Assistant City Manager / Director of Finance Subject: Professional Auditing Services Issue: For the City Council to consider the renewal of the Audit contract with Crowe LLP for the years 2022 through 2024. Analysis: The City is required by State Statute to have an audit conducted over its financial statements on an annual basis. This audit is to be conducted by a State licensed CPA firm and the City’s current contract with Crowe LLP ended with the completion of the fiscal year 2021. The Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) recommends that governmental entities enter into multi-year agreements with an audit firm as they allow for greater continuity and help minimize the potential for disruption in connection with the independent audit. Multiyear agreements can also help reduce audit costs by allowing auditors to recover certain “startup” costs over several years. Over the past 11 years Crowe has done an outstanding job in terms of the audit services provided. Beginning with the 2014 Audit, Crowe had an audit partner rotation on the City’s engagement which allows for a separate individual to review and sign off on the annual audit. Additionally, the firm has many experts on hand that handle a variety of questions that may arise in the taxability area of payroll and various IRS regulations that may be imposed which assist the City in staying abreast of the current developments. The result of the annual audit is the publishing and filing of the City's Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR). The ACFR is a standard format financial report utilized by bond rating agencies as well as other State and Federal regulators. There are four other required reports that the auditors prepare annually. 1.Federal single audit is required if the City spends more than $500,000 in Federal funding (e.g., CDBG, law enforcement grants, and flood assistance.) 2.Special audit conducted on the Tax Increment Financing Districts (TIF) funds. 3.Annual Financial Report (AFR) submitted to the State Comptroller. 4.Consolidated Year End Financial Report (CYEFR) submitted as part of the overall Grant Accountability Transparency Act (GATA) which is a new requirement beginning with the 2018 filing. The Des Plaines Public Library is a component unit of the City and its financial information is included in the City’s Annual ACFR. The fee for this service, for the fiscal year ending December 2021, was $67,500 MEMORANDUM Page 1 of 20 CONSENT AGENDA #4. and has increased to $72,200 due to the required new reporting in addition to a slight increase on the remaining required financial reports. The following chart provides the fees for the annual audit that would be conducted for years 2022 through 2024: 2022 2023 2024 ACFR $ 53,200 $ 56,900 $ 60,900 Single Audit Report 6,700 7,100 7,600 TIF Compliance Letter 3,400 3,600 3,800 AFR 1,300 1,300 1,400 CYEFR 2,200 2,300 2,500 Sub-total for City $ 66,800 $ 76,200 $ 71,200 Library $ 5,400 $ 5,700 $ 6,100 Total $ 72,200 $ 76,900 $ 82,300 Recommendation: I recommend that the City Council approve the Resolution to enter into a contract with Crowe LLP located at One Mid America Plaza, Suite 700, Post Office Box 3697, Oak Brook, Illinois 60522-3697 to perform the auditing services for the City of Des Plaines and the Des Plaines Public Library for fiscal years 2022, 2023 and 2024.

The attached Crowe Engagement Terms, and any other attachments thereto, are integral parts of this letter, and such terms are incorporated herein. AUDIT SERVICES Our Responsibilities We will audit and report on the financial statements of the Client for the year ending December 31, 2022. We will audit and report on the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, the discretely presented component unit, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information, which collectively comprise the basic financial statements of the Client for the period(s) indicated. In addition to our report on the financial statements, we plan to evaluate the presentation of the following supplementary information in relation to the financial statements as a whole, and to report on whether this supplementary information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements as a whole. Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards Combining and Individual Fund Financial Statements and Schedules Illinois Grant Accountability and Transparency Act – Consolidated Year End Financial Report In addition to our report on the financial statements, we also plan to perform specified procedures in order to describe in our report whether the following required supplementary information is presented in accordance with applicable guidelines. However, we will not express an opinion or provide any assurance on this information due to our limited procedures. Management’s Discussion and Analysis Budgetary Comparison Schedules Schedule of Changes in Total OPEB Liability and Related Ratios Schedule of Changes in Net Pension Liability and Related Ratios Schedule of Contributions Schedule of Investment Rate of Return Exhibit A Page 5 of 20 City of Des Plaines 2 July 27, 2022 The document will also include the following additional information that will not be subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audit of the financial statements, and for which our auditor’s report will disclaim an opinion: Introductory Section of the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report Statistical Section of the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report 2021 comparative actual amounts on the individual fund financial statements and schedules Continuing Disclosure – Annual Financial Information The objective of the audit is the expression of an opinion on the financial statements. We will plan and perform the audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the standards for financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, and the audit requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). Those standards require that we obtain reasonable, rather than absolute, assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement whether caused by error or fraud, and that we report on the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (as noted above), and on your compliance with laws and regulations and on its internal controls as required for a Single Audit. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Noncompliance with the compliance requirements is considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, it would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user of the report on compliance about the entity's compliance with the requirements of the federal programs as a whole. Because of inherent limitations of an audit, together with the inherent limitations of internal control, an unavoidable risk that some material misstatements may not be detected exists, even though the audit is properly planned and performed in accordance with applicable standards. An audit is not designed to detect error or fraud that is immaterial to the financial statements. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment including the assessment of the risks that the financial statements could be misstated by an amount that we believe would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user of these financial statements. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. As required by the standards, we will maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. In making our risk assessments, we obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Client’s internal control. However, we will communicate in writing to those charged with governance and management concerning any significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in internal control relevant to the audit of the financial statements that we have identified during the audit. We will communicate to management other deficiencies in internal control identified during the audit that have not been communicated to management by other parties and that, in our professional judgment, are of sufficient importance to merit management’s attention. We will also communicate certain matters related to the conduct of the audit to those charged with governance, including (1) fraud involving senior management, and fraud (whether caused by senior management or other employees) that causes a material misstatement of the financial statements, (2) illegal acts that come to our attention (unless they are clearly inconsequential) (3) disagreements with management and other significant difficulties encountered in performing the audit and (4) various matters related to the Client‘s accounting policies and financial statements. Our engagement is not designed to address legal or regulatory matters, which matters should be discussed by you with your legal counsel. Exhibit A Page 6 of 20 City of Des Plaines 3 July 27, 2022 As part of our audit, we will conclude, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Client's ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. We expect to issue a written report upon completion of our audit of the Client’s financial statements. Our report will be addressed to the Honorable Mayor and the City Council of the Client. Circumstances may arise in which it is necessary for us to modify our opinion, add an emphasis of matter or other matter paragraph or a separate section in the auditor's report, or withdraw from the engagement. In addition to our report on the financial statements and supplemental information, we plan to issue the following reports: Independent Auditor’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting and on Compliance and Other Matters Based on an Audit of Financial Statements Performed in Accordance with Government Auditing Standards — The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the Client’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose. Independent Auditor’s Report on Compliance for Each Major Federal Program and Report on Internal Control Over Compliance -- The purpose of this report on internal control over compliance is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over compliance and the results of that testing based on the requirements of the Uniform Guidance. Accordingly, this report is not suitable for any other purpose. We will also perform tests of controls including testing underlying transactions, as required by the Uniform Guidance, to evaluate the effectiveness of the design and operation of controls that we consider relevant to preventing or detecting material noncompliance with compliance requirements applicable to each of your major federal awards programs. We will determine major programs in accordance with the Uniform Guidance. Our tests will be less in scope than would be necessary to render an opinion on these controls and, accordingly, no opinion will be expressed. We will inform you of any non-reportable conditions or other matters involving internal control, if any, as required by the Uniform Guidance. As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, we will also perform tests of your compliance with applicable laws, regulations, contracts and grants. However, because of the concept of reasonable assurance and because we will not perform a detailed examination of all transactions, there is a risk that material errors, irregularities, or illegal acts, including fraud or defalcations, may exist and not be detected by us. However, the objective of our audit of compliance relative to the financial statements will not be to provide an opinion on overall compliance with such provisions, and we will not express such an opinion. We will advise you, however, of any matters of that nature that come to our attention, unless they are clearly inconsequential. The Uniform Guidance requires that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether you have complied with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grants. Our procedures will consist of the applicable procedures described in the United States Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Compliance Supplement for the types of compliance requirements that could have a direct and material effect on each of your major programs. The purpose of our audit will be to express an opinion on your compliance with requirements applicable to major Federal award programs. Because an audit is designed to provide reasonable assurance, but not absolute assurance, the audit is not designed to detect immaterial violations or instances of noncompliance. Our audit and work product are intended for the benefit and use of the Client only. The audit will not be planned or conducted in contemplation of reliance by any other party or with respect to any specific transaction and is not intended to benefit or influence any other party. Therefore, items of possible Exhibit A Page 7 of 20 City of Des Plaines 4 July 27, 2022 interest to a third party may not be specifically addressed or matters may exist that could be assessed differently by a third party. The working papers for this engagement are the property of Crowe and constitute confidential information. However, we may be requested to make certain working papers available to your oversight agency or grantors pursuant to authority given to them by law, regulation, or contract. If requested, access to such working papers will be provided under the supervision of our personnel. Furthermore, upon request, we may provide photocopies of selected working papers to your oversight agency or grantors. The working papers for this engagement will be retained for a minimum of three years after the date our report is issued or for any additional period requested by the oversight agency or pass-through entity. If we are aware that a federal awarding agency, pass-through entity, or auditee is contesting an audit finding, we will contact the party contesting the audit finding for guidance prior to destroying the working papers. Government Auditing Standards require that we provide you with a copy of our most recent peer review report, which accompanies this letter. The Client’s Responsibilities The Client’s management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Management is also responsible for the design, implementation and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Client’s management is also responsible for complying with applicable laws, regulations, contracts and grants and such responsibility extends to identifying the requirements and designing internal control policies and procedures to provide reasonable assurance that compliance is achieved. Management has the responsibility to make Crowe aware of significant contractor relationships in which the contractor is responsible for program compliance. Client's management is responsible for taking timely and appropriate steps to remedy fraud and noncompliance with provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements that the auditor reports. Additionally, it is management’s responsibility to follow up and take corrective action on reported audit findings, to establish and maintain a process for tracking the status of findings and recommendations, and to prepare a summary schedule of prior audit findings, which should be available for our review, and a corrective action plan. Management has the responsibility to adopt sound accounting policies, maintain an adequate and efficient accounting system, to safeguard assets, and to design and implement programs and controls to prevent and detect fraud. Management’s judgments are typically based on its knowledge and experience about past and current events and its expected courses of action. Management’s responsibility for financial reporting includes establishing a process to prepare the accounting estimates included in the financial statements and to devise policies to ensure that the Client complies with applicable laws and regulations. In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Client's ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the date the Financial Statements are made available to be issued. Management is responsible for providing to us, on a timely basis, all information of which management is aware that is relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements, such as records, documentation, and other matters. Management is also responsible for providing such other additional information we may request for the purpose of the audit, and unrestricted access to persons within the Client from whom we determine it necessary to obtain audit evidence. Additionally, those charged with governance are responsible for informing us of their views about the risks of fraud within the Client, and their knowledge of any fraud or suspected fraud affecting the Client. Exhibit A Page 8 of 20 City of Des Plaines 5 July 27, 2022 Management is responsible for adjusting the financial statements to correct material misstatements related to accounts or disclosures. As part of our audit process, we will request from management written confirmation concerning representations made to us in connection with the audit, including that the effects of any uncorrected misstatements aggregated by us during the audit are immaterial, both individually and in the aggregate, to the financial statements, and to the Client’s compliance with the requirements of its Federal programs. Management acknowledges the importance of management’s representations and responses to our inquiries, and that they will be utilized as part of the evidential matter we will rely on in forming our opinion. Because of the importance of such information to our engagement, you agree to waive any claim against Crowe and its personnel for any liability and costs relating to or arising from any inaccuracy or incompleteness of information provided to us for purposes of this engagement. Management is responsible for the preparation of the supplementary information identified above in accordance with the applicable criteria. As part of our audit process, we will request from management certain written representations regarding management’s responsibilities in relation to the supplementary information presented, including but not limited to its fair presentation in accordance with the applicable criteria, the method of measurement and presentation and any significant assumptions or interpretations underlying the supplementary information. In addition, it is management’s responsibility to include the auditor’s report on supplementary information in any document that contains the supplementary information and that indicates that we have reported on such supplementary information. It is also management’s responsibility to present the supplementary information with the audited financial statements or, if the supplementary information will not be presented with the audited financial statements, to make the audited financial statements readily available to the intended users of the supplementary information no later than the date of issuance by Client of the supplementary information and the auditor’s report thereon. Management is responsible for the preparation of the required supplementary information identified above in accordance with the applicable guidelines. We will request from management certain written representations regarding management’s responsibilities in relation to the required supplementary information presented, including but not limited to whether it has been measured and presented in accordance with prescribed guidelines, the method of measurement and presentation and any significant assumptions or interpretations underlying the supplementary information. At the conclusion of the engagement, it is management’s responsibility to submit the reporting package (including financial statements, schedule of expenditures of federal awards, summary schedule of prior audit findings, auditor’s reports, and corrective action plan) along with the Data Collection Form to the designated federal clearinghouse and, if appropriate, to pass-through entities. The Data Collection Form and the reporting package must be submitted within the earlier of thirty days after receipt of the auditor’s reports or nine months after the end of the audit period. Management is responsible for report distribution responsibilities, including determining which officials or organizations will receive the report and making the report available to the public as applicable when the audit organization is responsible for report distribution. OTHER SERVICES Preparation of the following additional reports on behalf of the Client: State of Illinois Annual Financial Report Financial Statement Preparation The Client will provide us with the necessary information to assist in the preparation of the draft financial statements including the notes thereto. We are relying on the Client to provide us with the detailed trial balance, note disclosure information and any other relevant report information in a timely fashion and Exhibit A Page 9 of 20 City of Des Plaines 6 July 27, 2022 ensure the data is complete and accurate. Management is solely responsible for the presentation of the financial statements. Data Collection Form input services We will provide assistance in completing sections of the Data Collection Form (DCF) relative to its federal award programs pursuant to the requirements of Section §200.512 of the Uniform Guidance that are promulgated to be completed by the Client. While we may provide this data entry service and assist you in satisfying your electronic data communication requirements to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse, the completeness and accuracy of this information remains the responsibility of your management. With respect to the above other services, we will perform the services in accordance with applicable professional standards. We, in our sole professional judgment, reserve the right to refuse to do any procedure or take any action that could be construed as making management decisions or assuming management responsibilities. In connection with performing the above other services, you agree to: assume all management responsibilities including making all management decisions; oversee the service by designating an individual, preferably within senior management, who possesses suitable skill, knowledge, and/or experience; evaluate the adequacy and results of the services performed; and accept responsibility for the results of the services. FEES Our fees are outlined below. Our invoices are due and payable upon receipt. Invoices that are not paid within 30 days of receipt are subject to a monthly interest charge of one percent per month or the highest interest rate allowed by law, whichever is less, which we may elect to waive at our sole discretion, plus costs of collection including reasonable attorneys’ fees. If any amounts invoiced remain unpaid 30 days after the invoice date, you agree that Crowe may, in its sole discretion, cease work until all such amounts are paid or terminate this engagement.

PROVISION FOR THREE-YEAR PROPOSAL We have agreed to the following fees for the next two subsequent years as follows: Description of Services 2023 2024 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report $56,900 $60,900 Single Audit Report $7,100 $7,600 TIF Compliance Letter $3,600 $3,800 AFR $1,300 $1,400 CYEFR $2,300 $2,500 Exhibit A Page 10 of 20 City of Des Plaines 7 July 27, 2022 Sub-total for the City of Des Plaines $71,200 $76,200 Library $5,700 $6,100 Total for the year $76,900 $82,300 Because each year is a separate engagement and this three-year period does not constitute a continuous engagement, we will require execution of a new engagement letter for each subsequent year listed above. However, we agree to the fees listed above for each year unless we both agree in writing to a modification. The fees outlined above are based on certain assumptions. Those assumptions may be incorrect due to incomplete or inaccurate information provided, or circumstances may arise under which we must perform additional work, which in either case will require additional billings for our services. Examples of such circumstances include, but are not limited to: Changing service requirements New professional standards or regulatory requirements New financial statement disclosures Work caused due to the identification of, and management’s correction of, inappropriate application of accounting pronouncements Erroneous or incomplete accounting records Evidence of material weakness or significant deficiencies in internal controls Substantial increases in the number of significant deficiencies in internal controls Regulatory examination matters Change in your organizational structure or size due to merger and acquisition activity or other events Change in your controls New or unusual transactions Agreed-upon level of preparation and assistance from your personnel not provided Numerous revisions to your information Lack of availability of appropriate Client personnel during fieldwork. More than one major program related to the Single Audit Additional audit procedures relating to the impact of COVID-19 on Client or additional regulatory requirements relating thereto Additionally, to accommodate requests to reschedule fieldwork without reasonable notice, additional billings for our services could be required, and our assigned staffing and ability to meet agreed upon deadlines could be impacted. Our fee assumes that we will be provided with auditable trial balances for all funds at year end, that all bank accounts and investment accounts will be reconciled through the end of the year being audited to the trial balances, that interfund and transfer accounts will balance, the subsidiary ledgers will reconcile to the general ledger and that beginning fund equity amounts will be reconcilable to prior year audited ending fund equity. We assume that the Client will cooperate with our requests for information such as explanations of account activity. We assume that requested records such as invoices, contracts, grant agreements and supporting documentation will be located and provided to us. We also assume the Client will prepare the introductory Section, the MD&A section, the Statistical section and the Continuing Disclosures section of the report. Our fee does not include implementation of any other future accounting or auditing pronouncements and/or government requirements that may change, thus, the scope or amount of auditing necessary to complete our engagements may increase beyond what is currently anticipated. Should such events occur, we would present you with our estimate of any possible increase prior to beginning our audit for Exhibit A Page 11 of 20 City of Des Plaines 8 July 27, 2022 the given year. An equitable adjustment in the proposed fee will be negotiated if the cost of time required for performance of the audit service is increased or decreased pursuant to a change in scope of the audit requested by the Client or required by State or Federal regulations. When we become aware of circumstances which impact the amount or scheduling of our work, we will issue, for your approval, a formal change order detailing the reason and the anticipated impact of the change. Our fees are exclusive of taxes or similar charges, as well as customs, duties or tariffs, imposed in respect of the Services, any work product or any license, all of which Client agrees to pay if applicable or if they become applicable (other than taxes imposed on Crowe’s income generally), without deduction from any fees or expenses invoiced to Client by Crowe. The Client and Crowe agree that the Client may periodically request Crowe to provide additional services for accounting and reporting advice regarding completed transactions and potential or proposed transactions. The fees for such additional services will be based on Crowe’s hourly billing rates plus expenses or as mutually agreed upon between the Client and Crowe. To facilitate Crowe’s presence at Client’s premises, Client will provide Crowe with internet access while on Client’s premises. Crowe will access the internet using a secure virtual private network. Crowe will be responsible for all internet activity performed by its personnel while on Client’s premises. In the event Client does not provide Crowe with internet access while on Client’s premises, Client will reimburse Crowe for the cost of internet access through other means while on Client’s site. MISCELLANEOUS In delivering services to Client, Crowe may use subsidiaries owned and controlled by Crowe within and outside the United States. Crowe subsidiaries are subject to the same information security policies and requirements as Crowe LLP and will meet the requirements set forth in the confidentiality and data protection provisions of this Agreement. For purposes of this Miscellaneous section, the Acceptance section below, and all of the Crowe Engagement Terms, “Client” will mean the entity(ies) defined in the first paragraph of this letter and will also include all related parents, subsidiaries, and affiliates of Client who may receive or claim reliance upon any Crowe deliverable. Crowe will provide the services to Client under this Agreement as an independent contractor and not as Client’s partner, agent, employee, or joint venturer under this Agreement. Neither Crowe nor Client will have any right, power or authority to bind the other party. This engagement letter agreement (the “Agreement”) reflects the entire agreement between the parties relating to the services (or any reports, deliverables or other work product) covered by this Agreement. The engagement letter and any attachments (including without limitation the attached Crowe Engagement Terms) are to be construed as a single document, with the provisions of each section applicable throughout. This Agreement may not be amended or varied except by a written document signed by each party. No provision of this Agreement will be deemed waived, unless such waiver will be in writing and signed by the party against which the waiver is sought to be enforced. It replaces and supersedes any other proposals, correspondence, agreements and understandings, whether written or oral, relating to the services covered by this letter, and each party agrees that in entering this Agreement, it has not relied on any oral or written representations, statements or other information not contained in or incorporated into this Agreement. Any non-disclosure or other confidentiality agreement is replaced and superseded by this Agreement. Each party shall remain obligated to the other party under all provisions of this Agreement that expressly or by their nature extend beyond and survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement. If any provision (in whole or in part) of this Agreement is found unenforceable or invalid, this will not affect the remainder of the provision or any other provisions in this Agreement, all of which will continue in effect as if the stricken portion had not been included. This Agreement may be executed in two or more actual, scanned, emailed, or electronically copied counterparts, each and all of which together are one and the same instrument. Accurate transmitted copies (transmitted copies are Exhibit A Page 12 of 20 City of Des Plaines 9 July 27, 2022 reproduced documents that are sent via mail, delivery, scanning, email, photocopy, facsimile or other process) of the executed Agreement or signature pages only (whether handwritten or electronic signature), will be considered and accepted by each party as documents equivalent to original documents and will be deemed valid, binding and enforceable by and against all parties. This Agreement, including any dispute arising out of or related to this Agreement and the parties’ relationship generally, will be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Illinois applicable to agreements made and wholly performed in that state, without giving effect to its conflict of laws rules to the extent those rules would require applying another jurisdiction’s laws. * * * * * We are pleased to have this opportunity to serve you, and we look forward to a continuing relationship.

These terms are part of the Agreement and apply to all services described in the Agreement as well as all other services provided to Client (collectively, the “Services”), unless and until a separate written agreement is executed by the parties for separate services. Any advice provided by Crowe is not intended to be, and is not, investment advice. CLIENT’S ASSISTANCE – For Crowe to provide Services effectively and efficiently, Client agrees to provide Crowe timely with information requested and to make available to Crowe any personnel, systems, premises, records, or other information as reasonably requested by Crowe to perform the Services. Access to such personnel and information are key elements for Crowe’s successful completion of Services and determination of fees. If for any reason this does not occur, a revised fee to reflect additional time or resources required by Crowe will be mutually agreed. Client agrees Crowe will have no responsibility for any delays related to a delay in providing such information to Crowe. Such information will be accurate and complete, and Client will inform Crowe of all significant tax, accounting and financial reporting matters of which Client is aware. PROFESSIONAL STANDARDS – As a regulated professional services firm, Crowe must follow professional standards when applicable, including the Code of Professional Conduct of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”). Thus, if circumstances arise that, in Crowe’s professional judgment, prevent it from completing the engagement, Crowe retains the right to take any course of action permitted by professional standards, including declining to express an opinion or issue other work product or terminating the engagement. REPORTS – Any information, advice, recommendations or other content of any memoranda, reports, deliverables, work product, presentations, or other communications Crowe provides under this Agreement (“Reports”), other than Client’s original information, are for Client’s internal use only, consistent with the purpose of the Services. Client will not rely on any draft Report. Unless required by an audit or other attestation professional standard, Crowe will not be required to update any final Report for circumstances of which we become aware or events occurring after delivery. CONFIDENTIALITY – Except as otherwise permitted by this Agreement or as agreed in writing, neither Crowe nor Client may disclose to third parties the contents of this Agreement or any information provided by or on behalf of the other that ought reasonably to be treated as confidential and/or proprietary. Client use of any Crowe work product will be limited to its stated purpose and to Client business use only. However, Client and Crowe each agree that either party may disclose such information to the extent that it: (i) is or becomes public other than through a breach of this Agreement, (ii) is subsequently received by the recipient from a third party who, to the recipient's knowledge, owes no obligation of confidentiality to the disclosing party with respect to that information, (iii) was known to the recipient at the time of disclosure or is thereafter created independently, (iv) is disclosed as necessary to enforce the recipient's rights under this Agreement, or (v) must be disclosed under applicable law, regulations, legal process or professional standards. USE OF SUBCONTRACTORS FOR SERVICE DELIVERY – Crowe may engage third-party subcontractors in delivering Services to Client. Third-party subcontractors are not owned or controlled by Crowe (including without limitation Crowe Global member firms). If Crowe engages such a subcontractor to deliver Services to Client, Crowe will execute an agreement for the protection of Client’s confidential information consistent with the provisions of this Agreement. Crowe will be solely responsible for the provision of Services (including those provided by subcontractors) and for the protection of Client’s confidential information. The limitations in this Agreement on Client’s remedies will also apply to any subcontractors. USE OF THIRD-PARTIES IN CROWE OPERATIONS – Crowe uses third-party providers in the ordinary course of Crowe business operations. Third-party providers used in the ordinary course of Crowe business operations include without limitation email providers, cyber-security providers, and data hosting Exhibit A Page 15 of 20 City of Des Plaines 12 July 27, 2022 centers. Crowe also uses its subsidiaries (owned and controlled by Crowe) within and outside the United States for various administrative and support roles. Crowe subsidiaries and any third-party providers used in the ordinary course of Crowe business operations will meet the confidentiality and data protection requirements in this Agreement. The limitations in this Agreement on Client’s remedies will also apply to any such third-party providers and Crowe subsidiaries. CLIENT-REQUIRED CLOUD USAGE – If Client requests that Crowe access files, documents or other information in a cloud-based or web-accessed hosting service or other third-party system accessed via the internet, including, without limitation iCloud, Dropbox, Google Docs, Google Drive, a data room hosted by a third party, or a similar service or website (collectively, “Cloud Storage”), Client will confirm with any third parties assisting with or hosting the Cloud Storage that either such third party or Client (and not Crowe) is responsible for complying with all applicable laws relating to the Cloud Storage and any information contained in the Cloud Storage, providing Crowe access to the information in the Cloud Storage, and protecting the information in the Cloud Storage from any unauthorized access, including without limitation unauthorized access to the information when in transit to or from the Cloud Storage. Client represents that it has authority to provide Crowe access to information in the Cloud Storage and that providing Crowe with such access complies with all applicable laws, regulations, and duties owed to third parties. DATA PROTECTION – If Crowe holds or uses Client information that can be linked to specific individuals who are Client’s customers ("Personal Data"), Crowe will treat it as confidential as described above and comply with applicable US state and federal law and professional regulations (including, for financial institution clients, the objectives of the Interagency Guidelines Establishing Information Security Standards) in disclosing or using such information to carry out the Services. The parties acknowledge and understand that while Crowe is a service provider as defined by the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 and processes information on behalf of Client and pursuant to this Agreement, Crowe retains its independence as required by applicable law and professional standards for purposes of providing attest services and other related professional services. Crowe will not (1) sell Personal Data to a third party, or (2) retain, use or disclose Personal Data for any purpose other than for (a) performing the Services and its obligations on this Agreement, (b) as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, (c) to detect security incidents and protect against fraud or illegal activity, (d) to enhance and develop our products and services, including through machine learning and other similar methods and (e) as necessary to comply with applicable law or professional standards. Crowe has implemented and will maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards reasonably designed to (i) protect the security, confidentiality and integrity of the Personal Data, (ii) prevent unauthorized access to or use of the Personal Data, and (iii) provide proper disposal of the Personal Data (collectively, the “Safeguards”). Client warrants (i) that it has the authority to provide the Personal Data to Crowe in connection with the Services, (ii) that Client has processed and provided the Personal Data to Crowe in accordance with applicable law, and (iii) will limit the Personal Data provided to Crowe to Personal Data necessary to perform the Services. To provide the Services, Client may also need to provide Crowe with access to Personal Data consisting of protected health information, financial account numbers, Social Security or other government-issued identification numbers, or other data that, if disclosed without authorization, would trigger notification requirements under applicable law ("Restricted Personal Data"). In the event Client provides Crowe access to Restricted Personal Data, Client will consult with Crowe on appropriate measures (consistent with legal requirements and professional standards applicable to Crowe) to protect the Restricted Personal Data, such as: deleting or masking unnecessary information before making it available to Crowe, using encryption when transferring it to Crowe, or providing it to Crowe only during on-site review on Client’s site. Client will provide Crowe with Restricted Personal Data only in accordance with mutually agreed protective measures. Crowe and Client will each allow opportunistic TLS encryption to provide for secure email communication, and each party will notify the other in writing if it deactivates opportunistic TLS encryption. If Client fails to allow opportunistic TLS encryption, Client agrees that each party may use unencrypted electronic media to correspond or transmit information, and Client further agrees that such use of unencrypted media will not in itself constitute a breach of any confidentiality or other obligation relating to this Agreement. Otherwise, Client and Crowe agree each may use unencrypted electronic media to correspond or transmit information and such use will not in itself constitute a breach of any confidentiality obligations under this Agreement. Crowe will reasonably cooperate with Client in responding to or addressing any request from a consumer or data subject, a data privacy authority with Exhibit A Page 16 of 20 City of Des Plaines 13 July 27, 2022 jurisdiction, or the Client, as necessary to enable Client to comply with its obligations under applicable data protection laws and to the extent related to Personal Data processed by Crowe. Client will promptly reimburse Crowe for any out-of-pocket expenses and professional time (at Crowe’s then-current hourly rates) incurred in connection with providing such cooperation. Client will provide prompt written notice to Crowe (with sufficient detailed instructions) of any request or other act that is required to be performed by Crowe. As appropriate, Crowe shall promptly delete or procure the deletion of the Personal Data, after the cessation of any Services involving the processing of Client’s Personal Data, or otherwise aggregate or de-identify the Personal Data in such a way as to reasonably prevent reidentification. Notwithstanding the forgoing, Crowe may retain a copy of the Personal Data as permitted by applicable law or professional standards, provided that such Personal Data remain subject to the terms of this Agreement. If Crowe uses a third-party provider, Crowe will include terms substantially similar to those set forth in this Data Protection Paragraph into an agreement with the provider. GENERAL DATA PROTECTION REGULATION COMPLIANCE – If and to the extent that Client provides personal data to Crowe subject to the European Union General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), then in addition to the requirements of the above Data Protection section, this section will apply to such personal data (“EU Personal Data”). The parties agree that for purposes of processing the EU Personal Data, (a) Client will be the “Data Controller” as defined by the GDPR, meaning the organization that determines the purposes and means of processing the EU Personal Data; (b) Crowe will be the “Data Processor” as defined by GDPR, meaning the organization that processes the EU Personal Data on behalf of and under the instructions of the Data Controller; or (c) the parties will be classified as otherwise designated by a supervisory authority with jurisdiction. Client and Crowe each agree to comply with the GDPR requirements applicable to its respective role. Crowe has implemented and will maintain technical and organizational security safeguards reasonably designed to protect the security, confidentiality and integrity of the EU Personal Data. Client represents it has secured all required rights and authority, including consents and notices, to provide such EU Personal Data to Crowe, including without limitation authority to transfer such EU Personal Data to the U.S. or other applicable Country or otherwise make the EU Personal Data available to Crowe, for the duration of and purpose of Crowe providing the Services. The types of EU Personal Data to be processed include name, contact information, title, and other EU Personal Data that is transferred to Crowe in connection with the Services. The EU Personal Data relates to the data subject categories of individuals connected to Client, Client customers, Client vendors, and Client affiliates or subsidiaries (“Data Subjects”). Crowe will process the EU Personal Data for the following purpose: (x) to provide the Services in accordance with this Agreement, (y) to comply with other documented reasonable instructions provided by Client, and (z) to comply with applicable law. In the event of a Crowe breach incident in connection with EU Personal Data in the custody or control of Crowe, Crowe will promptly notify Client upon knowledge that a breach incident has occurred. Client has instructed Crowe not to contact any Data Subjects directly, unless required by applicable law. In the event that a supervisory authority with jurisdiction makes the determination that Crowe is a data controller, Client will reasonably cooperate with Crowe to enable Crowe to comply with its obligations under GDPR. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY - Any Deliverables, works, inventions, working papers, or other work product conceived, made or created by Crowe in rendering the Services under this Agreement (“Work Product”), and all intellectual property rights in such Work Product will be owned exclusively by Crowe. Further, Crowe will retain exclusive ownership or control of all intellectual property rights in any ideas, concepts, methodologies, data, software, designs, utilities, tools, models, techniques, systems, Reports, or other know-how that it develops, owns or licenses in connection with this Agreement ("Materials"). The foregoing ownership will be without any duty of accounting. DATA USAGE AND AGGREGATIONS - Client hereby acknowledges and agrees that Crowe may, in its discretion, use any Client information or data provided to Crowe to improve Crowe services and Materials, including without limitation developing new Crowe services and software or other products. Client also agrees that Crowe may, in its discretion, aggregate Client content and data with content and data from other clients, other sources, or third parties (“Data Aggregations”) for purposes including, without limitation, product and service development, commercialization, industry benchmarking, or quality improvement initiatives. Prior to, and as a precondition for, disclosing Data Aggregations to other Crowe customers or prospects, Crowe will anonymize any Client data or information in a manner sufficient to Exhibit A Page 17 of 20 City of Des Plaines 14 July 27, 2022 prevent such other customer or prospect from identifying Client or individuals who are Client customers. All Data Aggregations will be the sole and exclusive property of Crowe. LEGAL AND REGULATORY CHANGE – Crowe may periodically communicate to Client changes in laws, rules or regulations. However, Client has not engaged Crowe, and Crowe does not undertake an obligation, to advise Client of changes in (a) laws, rules, regulations, industry or market conditions, or (b) Client’s own business practices or other circumstances (except to the extent required by professional standards). The scope of Services and the fees for Services are based on current laws and regulations. If changes in laws or regulations change Client’s requirements or the scope of the Services, Crowe’s fees will be modified to a mutually agreed amount to reflect the changed level of Crowe’s effort. PUBLICATION – Client agrees to obtain Crowe’s specific permission before using any Report or Crowe work product or Crowe’s firm’s name in a published document, and Client agrees to submit to Crowe copies of such documents to obtain Crowe’s permission before they are filed or published. CLIENT REFERENCE – From time to time Crowe is requested by prospective clients to provide references for Crowe service offerings. Client agrees that Crowe may use Client’s name and generally describe the nature of Crowe’s engagement(s) with Client in marketing to prospects, and Crowe may also provide prospects with contact information for Client personnel familiar with Crowe’s Services. NO PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES – Any liability of Crowe will not include any consequential, special, incidental, indirect, punitive, or exemplary damages or loss, nor any lost profits, goodwill, savings, or business opportunity, even if Crowe had reason to know of the possibility of such damages. LIMIT OF LIABILITY – Except where it is judicially determined that Crowe performed its Services with recklessness or willful misconduct, Crowe’s liability will not exceed fees paid by Client to Crowe for the portion of the work giving rise to liability. A claim for a return of fees paid is the exclusive remedy for any damages. This limit of liability will apply to the full extent allowed by law, regardless of the grounds or nature of any claim asserted, including, without limitation, to claims based on principles of contract, negligence or other tort, fiduciary duty, warranty, indemnity, statute or common law. This limit of liability will also apply after this Agreement. INDEMNIFICATION FOR THIRD‑PARTY CLAIMS – In the event of a legal proceeding or other claim brought against Crowe by a third party, except where it is judicially determined that Crowe performed Services with recklessness or willful misconduct, Client agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Crowe and its personnel against all costs, fees, expenses, damages and liabilities, including attorney fees and any other fees or defense costs, associated with such third‑party claim, relating to or arising from any Services performed or work product provided by Crowe that Client uses or discloses to others or this engagement generally. This indemnification is intended to apply to the full extent allowed by law, regardless of the grounds or nature of any claim, liability, or damages asserted, including, without limitation, to claims, liability or damages based on principles of contract, negligence or other tort, fiduciary duty, warranty, indemnity, statute or common law. This indemnification will also apply after termination of this Agreement. NO TRANSFER OR ASSIGNMENT OF CLAIMS – No claim against Crowe, or any recovery from or against Crowe, may be sold, assigned or otherwise transferred, in whole or in part. TIME LIMIT ON CLAIMS – In no event will any action against Crowe, arising from or relating to this Agreement or the Services provided by Crowe relating to this engagement, be brought after the earlier of 1) one (1) year after the date on which occurred the act or omission alleged to have been the cause of the injury alleged; or 2) the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations or repose. RESPONSE TO LEGAL PROCESS – If Crowe is requested by subpoena, request for information, or through some other legal process to produce documents or testimony pertaining to Client or Crowe’s Services, and Crowe is not named as a party in the applicable proceeding, then Client will reimburse Exhibit A Page 18 of 20 City of Des Plaines 15 July 27, 2022 Crowe for its professional time, plus out-of-pocket expenses, as well as reasonable attorney fees, Crowe incurs in responding to such request. MEDIATION – If a dispute arises, in whole or in part, out of or related to this engagement, or after the date of this agreement, between Client or any of Client’s affiliates or principals and Crowe, and if the dispute cannot be settled through negotiation, Client and Crowe agree first to try, in good faith, to settle the dispute by mediation administered by the American Arbitration Association, under its mediation rules for professional accounting and related services disputes, before resorting to litigation or any other dispute-resolution procedure. The results of mediation will be binding only upon agreement of each party to be bound. Costs of any mediation will be shared equally by both parties. Any mediation will be held in Chicago, Illinois. JURY TRIAL WAIVER – FOR ALL DISPUTES RELATING TO OR ARISING BETWEEN THE PARTIES, THE PARTIES AGREE TO WAIVE A TRIAL BY JURY TO FACILITATE JUDICIAL RESOLUTION AND TO SAVE TIME AND EXPENSE. EACH PARTY AGREES IT HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE ITS LEGAL COUNSEL REVIEW THIS WAIVER. THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE, MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING, AND APPLIES TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS WRITTEN CONSENT TO A BENCH TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY. HOWEVER, AND NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, IF ANY COURT RULES OR FINDS THIS JURY TRIAL WAIVER TO BE UNENFORCEABLE AND INEFFECTIVE IN WAIVING A JURY, THEN ANY DISPUTE RELATING TO OR ARISING FROM THIS ENGAGEMENT OR THE PARTIES’ RELATIONSHIP GENERALLY WILL BE RESOLVED BY ARBITRATION AS SET FORTH IN THE PARAGRAPH BELOW REGARDING “ARBITRATION.” ARBITRATION – If any court rules or finds that the JURY TRIAL WAIVER section is not enforceable, then any dispute between the parties relating to or arising from this Agreement or the parties’ relationship generally will be settled by binding arbitration in Chicago, Illinois (or a location agreed in writing by the parties). Any issues concerning the extent to which any dispute is subject to arbitration, or concerning the applicability, interpretation, or enforceability of any of this Section, will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and resolved by the arbitrator(s). The arbitration will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and resolved by the arbitrator(s). Regardless of the amount in controversy, the arbitration will be administered by JAMS, Inc. (“JAMS”), pursuant to its Streamlined Arbitration Rules & Procedures or such other rules or procedures as the parties may agree in writing. In the event of a conflict between those rules and this Agreement, this Agreement will control. The parties may alter each of these rules by written agreement. If a party has a basis for injunctive relief, this paragraph will not preclude a party seeking and obtaining injunctive relief in a court of proper jurisdiction. The parties will agree within a reasonable period of time after notice is made of initiating the arbitration process whether to use one or three arbitrators, and if the parties cannot agree within fifteen (15) business days, the parties will use a single arbitrator. In any event the arbitrator(s) must be retired federal judges or attorneys with at least 15 years commercial law experience and no arbitrator may be appointed unless he or she has agreed to these procedures. If the parties cannot agree upon arbitrator(s) within an additional fifteen (15) business days, the arbitrator(s) will be selected by JAMS. Discovery will be permitted only as authorized by the arbitrator(s), and as a rule, the arbitrator(s) will not permit discovery except upon a showing of substantial need by a party. To the extent the arbitrator(s) permit discovery as to liability, the arbitrator(s) will also permit discovery as to causation, reliance, and damages. The arbitrator(s) will not permit a party to take more than six depositions, and no depositions may exceed five hours. The arbitrator(s) will have no power to make an award inconsistent with this Agreement. The arbitrator(s) will rule on a summary basis where possible, including without limitation on a motion to dismiss basis or on a summary judgment basis. The arbitrator(s) may enter such prehearing orders as may be appropriate to ensure a fair hearing. The hearing will be held within one year of the initiation of arbitration, or less, and the hearing must be held on continuous business days until concluded. The hearing must be concluded within ten (10) business days absent written agreement by the parties to the contrary. The time limits in this section are not jurisdictional. The arbitrator(s) will apply substantive law and may award injunctive relief or any other remedy available from a judge. The arbitrator(s) may award attorney fees and costs to the prevailing party, and in the event of a split or partial award, the arbitrator(s) may award costs or attorney fees in an Exhibit A Page 19 of 20 City of Des Plaines 16 July 27, 2022 equitable manner. Any award by the arbitrator(s) will be accompanied by a reasoned opinion describing the basis of the award. Any prior agreement regarding arbitration entered by the parties is replaced and superseded by this agreement. The arbitration will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1 et seq., and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered by any court having jurisdiction thereof. All aspects of the arbitration will be treated by the parties and the arbitrator(s) as confidential. NON‑SOLICITATION – Each party acknowledges that it has invested substantially in recruiting, training and developing the personnel who render services with respect to the material aspects of the engagement (“Key Personnel”). The parties acknowledge that Key Personnel have knowledge of trade secrets or confidential information of their employers that may be of substantial benefit to the other party. The parties acknowledge that each business would be materially harmed if the other party was able to directly employ Key Personnel. Therefore, the parties agree that during the period of this Agreement and for one (1) year after its expiration or termination, neither party will solicit Key Personnel of the other party for employment or hire the Key Personnel of the other party without that party’s written consent unless the hiring or engaging party pays to the other party a fee equal to the hired or engaged Key Personnel’s compensation for the prior twelve-month period with the other party. CROWE AND EQUAL OPPORTUNITY – Crowe abides by the principles of equal employment opportunity, including without limitation the requirements of 41 CFR 60-741.5(a) and 41 CFR 60-300.5(a). These regulations prohibit discrimination against qualified individuals based on their status as protected veterans or individuals with disabilities, and prohibit discrimination against all individuals based on their race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. Moreover, these regulations require that covered prime contractors and subcontractors take affirmative action to employ and advance in employment individuals without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, protected veteran status or disability. Crowe also abides by 29 CFR Part 471, Appendix A to Subpart A. The parties agree that the notice in this paragraph does not create any enforceable rights for any firm, organization, or individual.

Analysis: The United States Geological Survey (USGS) maintains river and stream gauges throughout the nation. Due to both changing climate and various flow conditions, we are recommending continued operation and maintenance of the river gauge on the Algonquin Road Bridge. We contacted USGS and obtained operation and maintenance pricing. For the proposed agreement’s time period of October 1, 2022 to September 30, 2025, the total cost is $44,400. This equates to $14,800 per year of the agreement. Recommendation: We recommend execution of the multi-year Agreement between the City of Des Plaines and U.S. Geological Survey, Central Midwest Science Center, United States Department of the Interior, 400 S. Clinton St., Room 268, Iowa City, Iowa, 52240 in the not-to-exceed amount of $44,400. Source of funding would continue to be Sewer Maintenance fund.

MINUTES OF THE PUBLIC HEARING HELD IN THE ELEANOR ROHRBACH MEMORIAL COUNCIL CHAMBERS DES PLAINES CIVIC CENTER, MONDAY, AUGUST 1, 2022 PUBLIC HEARING/ AMD OF THE ZONING ORDINANCE REGARDING TEMPORARY CLASSROOMS Ordinance Z-24-22 Mayor Goczkowski called the Public Hearing for reconsideration of Ordinance Z-24-22, amending the text of the zoning ordinance of the City of Des Plaines regarding temporary classrooms to order at 7:05 p.m. Director of Community and Economic Development Carlisle reviewed a memorandum dated July 21, 2022. The City of Des Plaines proposed amending the Zoning Ordinance to add “Temporary Classroom Structures” as a new permitted temporary use. The specific amendments include regulations intended to identify and restrict the quantity, size, height, location, and duration of this type of structure. The City also proposed creating the term “Temporary Classroom Structure” to define this type of temporary use and its applicability city-wide. A temporary classroom – sometimes called a “mobile classroom” – is fairly common and intended for short-term use on school campuses when supplementary classroom space is needed. Temporary classrooms occur most often in one of two circumstances: (i) enrollment for a given school, at a given time, exceeds the capacity, and the district or school leadership has not yet been able to rebalance enrollment among its schools or plan for a physical expansion; or (ii) a school campus is in the midst of a construction project that takes permanent classrooms out of use temporarily. Temporary classrooms can vary in size and shape, but most consist of one to two classrooms, each with its own entrance, and proper utility connections from the principal use (i.e., school). Some temporary classrooms also contain restroom facilities. The full proposed amendments are:  Section 12-8-11, Temporary Uses: Add temporary classroom structures to the list of permitted temporary uses, along with items such as storage containers, tents, and vendor carts. Temporary classroom structures would be permitted in any district on any zoning lot with a public or private elementary, middle, or high school as the principal use. The change would not allow temporary classrooms for non-educational means, as the intended use of a temporary classroom is for educational purposes. The amendments would regulate quantity, size, height, location, and duration. They allow up to two temporary classroom structures on an eligible site at a given time. However, the collective size of all temporary classroom structures would be limited based on the school building footprint. Staff proposes a total maximum area for all temporary classrooms on site to be five percent (5%) of the main school building footprint. Staff proposes limiting the height of temporary classroom structures to 15 feet, which is the same limitation on accessory structures. The proposed amendments also focus on the allowable locations, requiring placement on dust-free hard surfaces in a way that does not block or interfere with required off- street parking drive aisles. Further, the structures could not occupy parking spaces such that the off-street parking minimum for the school would not be met. Additionally, temporary classroom structures would be prohibited from encroaching on any public right-of-way or utility easement, including, without limitation, any public alley, street, or curb. Page 3 of 11 8/1/2022 Finally, the proposed amendments include a maximum duration of 12 months. However, this amendment would allow the Zoning Administrator/Director of Community and Economic Development to extend the duration of a temporary classroom structure when a school is under construction and being diligently pursued to completion.  Section 12-13-3, Definition of Terms: Adds a definition for “Temporary Classroom Structures.” Similar to other temporary uses, a zoning certificate would be required for the installation or placement of a temporary classroom structure on an eligible property. The Planning and Zoning Board (PZB) typically holds public hearings and votes on recommendations to the City Council regarding zoning amendments. However, because of the time sensitivity of the imminent project proposed by School District 59 and Brentwood Elementary School, with all permitting and construction yet to occur, and in the spirit of partnership with the School District, the City Council is directly considering these amendments. Alderman Chester asked for further clarification about the fire regulations for these structures. Fire Chief Anderson stated in most cases they would have to extend their fire alarm system to them, but they would not be required to be sprinklered. Alderman Zadrozny asked about the reasoning the schools would be needing a temporary structure, and the timeframe allowed for use the structures. Resident Phil Rominski asked Fire Chief Anderson for further clarification regarding the sprinkler system and other fire code requirements. Cindy Decker, representative for the school structure, spoke regarding the egress of the windows, and the set-up timeframe for structure. Moved by Zadrozny, seconded by Oskerka, to Approve the Ordinance Z-24-22, AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE TEXT OF THE ZONING ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF DES PLAINES REGARDING TEMPORARY CLASSROOMS (CASE# 22- 025-TA). Upon voice vote, the vote was: AYES: 8 - Lysakowski, Moylan, Oskerka, Zadrozny, Brookman, Chester, Smith, Ebrahimi NAYS: 0 - None ABSENT: 0 - None Motion declared carried. Advanced to Second Reading by Zadrozny, seconded by Brookman, to Adopt the Ordinance Z-24-22, AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE TEXT OF THE ZONING ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF DES PLAINES REGARDING TEMPORARY CLASSROOMS (CASE# 22- 025-TA).

Mayor Goczkowski adjourned the Public Hearing at 7:17 p.m. Page 4 of 11 8/1/2022 PUBLIC COMMENT Resident Muhammad Tabani asked for the City seek a penalty from the petitioner of Blue Sky for not following through with the project, and for not adequately maintaining the property. He also stated the City should consider more resident involvement pertaining to future developments. He welcomed the City Council to his home to experience the issues he is having with the train noise since the trees have been torn down on the property behind him. Resident Pat Beauvais asked why the City Council eliminated the Economic Development Commission (EDC), and if the City Council would consider implementing citizen focus groups on future developments. Resident Jim Hansen thanked the Staff responsible for filling in the sidewalks and curbs around 1425 Ellinwood St. He also mentioned the code enforcement and safety issue of the Tyvek not being property secured on the 1425 Ellinwood St building. Resident Jennifer Poonsapaya asked Alderman Chester to recommit to having ward meetings. Alderman Chester stated he stopped the meetings because of Covid, and stated he intends of starting meetings once he feels confident he can have a meeting without Covid exposures. He mentioned be will try to schedule one for September. ALDERMAN ANNOUNCEMENTS Alderman Chester stated the City is going to start looking into lead in the water by doing inventory of the types of pipes in the residential buildings. MAYORAL ANNOUNCEMENTS Mayor mentioned National Night Out, sponsored by the Police Department, will be occurring Tuesday, August 2, 2022. Police Chief Anderson gave further details regarding National Night Out. On May 3, 2021, a Declaration of Civil Emergency for the City of Des Plaines related to the COVID-19 emergency was authorized. The Declaration provided that: (1) the City may enter into contracts for the emergency purchase of goods and services; (2) the City Manager may implement emergency staffing protocols pursuant to the City’s respective collective bargaining agreements; and (3) directed City officials and employees to cooperate with other government agencies. In accordance with Illinois statutes, the Mayor’s Declaration lasted only for a period of seven days, unless it was extended by action of the City Council. At each subsequent City Council meeting, the City Council, by motion, extended the Declaration until the next adjournment of the next special or City Council meeting. This extension of the Declaration includes the Supplemental Order dated January 3, 2022. Mayor Goczkowski presented an extension to the Declaration of Civil Emergency. Moved by Brookman, seconded by Chester, to extend the May 3, 2021 Declaration of Civil Emergency until the adjournment of the next regular, special, or emergency meeting of the City Council including the Supplement Order dated January 3, 2022.

UNFINISHED BUSINESS CONSIDER APPROVING A ZONING MAP AMENDMENT FOR 622 GRACELAND AVE, 1332 WEBFORD AVE, AND 1368 WEBFORD AVE Ordinance Z-23-22 Director of Community & Economic Development Carlisle reviewed a memorandum dated July 25, 2022. At its July 18, 2022 meeting, the City Council voted 7-1 on first reading to approve Ordinance Z-23-22, which would rezone the subject property from the C-3 General Commercial District to the C-5 Central Business District for a proposed mixed-use residential, commercial, and parking development. However, the Council’s motion included a stipulation that if the petitioner’s project does not proceed, the subject property’s zoning would return to C-3. The General Counsel has prepared a revised Ordinance Z-23-22. Under Section 5 (Effective Date), the revised Ordinance states the petitioner must formally agree not to object to a rezoning of the property to C-3 if the petitioner or any successors abandon the project prior to Page 7 of 11 8/1/2022 applying for building permits. In this case, the City would have to initiate a map amendment – the rezoning would not happen automatically – but the City could initiate and subject property ownership would have already consented. Submission of this formal agreement (rezoning covenant) is a term of the Purchase and Sale Agreement. Further, while answering Council questions on July 18, the petitioner noted architectural design changes that while not reflected in the renderings and elevations could be enforced through a future redevelopment agreement, approval of which will require passage of a resolution. Approval of the redevelopment agreement would be required to fulfill the Purchase and Sale Agreement for 1332 Webford, which is necessary not only for the transfer of property but also for the effectiveness of the zoning change to C-5. Petitioner 622 Graceland Apartments, LLC (Joe Taylor, Compasspoint Development) proposes a full redevelopment of just-less-than-one-acre (43,500 square feet) at the northwest corner of Graceland Avenue and Webford Avenue. The proposed project is a mix of residential and commercial space with indoor parking. A proposed 82-foot-tall building would contain 131 multiple-family dwelling units – 17 studios, 103 one-bedrooms, and 11 two-bedrooms – on the third through seventh floors. Approximately 2,800 net square feet of an open-to-the- public restaurant and lounge would occupy portions of the first (ground) and second floors. Proposed resident amenities are a coworking office space, a fitness area, lounges and meeting rooms, a club room with bar, a multimedia/game lounge, a dog run and dog wash, indoor bike parking, and an outdoor swimming pool and recreation deck. The proposed building in all is approximately 187,000 square feet. The project includes a 179-space indoor parking garage. These 179 spaces are intended to fulfill the off-street parking minimum requirements for the residential units and the restaurant- lounge (154 spaces), as well as create a supply of public parking to partially replace the current 1332 Webford public lot (25 public off-street spaces are proposed). The segment of Webford alongside the subject property is proposed to widen within the existing public right-of-way to a general distance of 28 feet from curb to curb. Where the five on-street parallel public parking spaces are proposed, the proposed curb-to-curb area is 35 feet wide: 28 feet for the two-way traffic lanes and 7 feet for parking spaces. The total off-street and on-street parking proposed is 184 spaces, with an on-street loading area. With the consent of the property owners, the petitioner is seeking zoning map amendment (rezoning) approval from the City Council. The PZB voted 3-3 (three “yes” and three “no” with one member absent) on a motion recommending approval of the map amendment. Pursuant to the portion of the City Code that governs the PZB, a 3-3 vote amounts to a recommendation to deny the request. Many residents expressed their objection to a zoning map amendment for 622 Graceland Ave, 1332 Webford Ave, and 1368 Webford Ave; and voiced their objection to the development proposed for this location. One of the concerns mentioned was that they believe the size of the building and the increased traffic are safety concerns. Mark Daniels, attorney representing four residents, spoke on behalf of his clients expressing their legal effort to stop a zoning map amendment for 622 Graceland Ave, 1332 Webford Ave, and 1368 Webford Ave. One resident expressed his approval of a zoning map amendment for 622 Graceland Ave, 1332 Webford Ave, and 1368 Webford Ave. Bernard Citron, attorney representing the petitioner, spoke on behalf of his client expressing their legal effort to proceed with a zoning map amendment for 622 Graceland Ave, 1332 Webford Ave, and 1368 Webford Ave. Page 8 of 11 8/1/2022 Joe Taylor, representative of 622 Graceland Apartments, LLC, spoke on behalf of the project and answered questions of the City Council. Alderman Zadrozny thanked the residents for coming out and speaking their mind about this development. He also mentioned social media comments made stating the City Council does not listen to its residents; he listed three recent occasions which he saw as examples of when this City Council did listen to its residents. Alderman Oskerka stated the City Council challenged the City to put more information out there earlier. He also mentioned he thinks this project is too big for this piece of land. Advanced to second reading by Moylan, seconded by Ebrahimi , to Adopt the Ordinance Z-23-22, AN ORDINANCE APPROVING A ZONING MAP AMENDMENT FOR 622 GRACELAND AVENUE, 1332 WEBFORD AVENUE, AND 1368 WEBFORD AVENUE, DES PLAINES, ILLINOIS. Upon roll call, the vote was: AYES: 7 - Lysakowski, Moylan, Zadrozny, Brookman, Chester, Smith, Ebrahimi NAYS: 1 - Oskerka ABSENT: 0 - None Motion declared carried. * Alderman Smith left the meeting at 9:05 p.m. CONSIDER APPROVING & AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION OF A PURCH & SALE AGRMT OF THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT 1332 WEBFORD AVE Ordinance M-22-22 Director of Community & Economic Development Carlisle reviewed a memorandum dated July 25, 2022. At its July 18, 2022 meeting, the City Council deferred the first reading of Ordinance M-22-22, which authorizes the City’s entrance into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (PSA) for the sale of property at 1332 Webford Avenue, a City-owned public parking lot. Since the meeting the General Counsel has revised the PSA, in the following ways:  The PSA refers to a subsequent redevelopment agreement that would now require the proposed mixed-use residential, commercial, and parking project at 622 Graceland, 1332 Webford, and 1368 Webford to be “constructed, maintained, and operated in accordance with plans approved by Seller” (the City)—this is intended to give the Council the ability, or flexibility, to ensure the petitioner uses desired design concepts in plans submitted with the redevelopment agreement;  The purchase price was previously $300,000, but the revised PSA allows for the price to reduce to $10 if the purchaser (developer of the mixed-use project) also finalizes acquisition of 1330 Webford, an approximately 9,000-square-foot parcel immediately west of 1332 Webford. The reasoning is some members of the Council expressed a desire to see the 1330 Webford property (currently improved with “The Dance Building”) repurposed as a public open space area. A sale price reduction encourages this acquisition and contributes toward its economic feasibility; and  The PSA requires the purchaser to deliver a rezoning covenant in a legal instrument acceptable to the General Counsel that pledges the purchaser or any successors in title would not object to a rezoning of 622 Graceland, 1332 Webford, and 1368 Webford to C-3 if the project as contemplated does not proceed. (Note: Ordinance Z-23-22, which approves a zoning map amendment from the C-3 District to the C-5 District, is not effective until the transaction for 1332 Webford is complete.) 622 Graceland Apartments LLC, an Illinois limited liability corporation, has approached the City with an offer to purchase the property at 1332 Webford Avenue, which is a City-owned public parking lot. The purchaser intends to acquire the property and develop it vertically, Page 9 of 11 8/1/2022 pursuant to the applicable bulk rules of the Zoning Ordinance, with a mixed-use residential, commercial, and parking development that would include public parking spaces. 1332 Webford Avenue is a 13,500-square-foot property directly west of the 622 Graceland Avenue-1368 Webford property (the “Journal and Topics site”) and east of a small mixed-use commercial-residential building at 1330 Webford Avenue. A public parking lot, 1332 Webford has been used historically by a mix of permit-holders, who have obtained a monthly permit from the City’s Finance Department, and those seeking time-limited free public parking. Based on observations of current and prior years, the parking lot has been only partially utilized, with ample spaces available at a given time. Purchaser 622 Graceland Apartments LLC is concurrently asking the Council for approval of a zoning map amendment for 1332 Webford from the current C-3 General Commercial District to the C-5 Central Business District to accommodate a proposed mixed-use development (the “Graceland-Webford project”). The project would contain a parking garage that would contain 179 spaces. Of these 179 spaces, 25 would be allocated for public use, intended to partially replace the 38 spaces currently at 1332 Webford. The remaining 154 would fulfill the off-street parking requirements of the Zoning Ordinance for the residential units (137 spaces) and proposed restaurant-lounge (17 spaces) in the development. Similar to the Bayview-Compasspoint (1425 Ellinwood Avenue) project, the Graceland- Webford project would contain 25 public spaces within a 179- space garage. Unlike the Bayview-Compasspoint garage, however, the City would not be involved in or obligated to any administrative nor any enforcement responsibilities. Maintenance responsibilities would also rest solely with the purchaser and/or any future property owners. Although the City would not be able to collect revenue from the spaces as currently contemplated, the agreement also does not allow the purchaser (developer) to collect revenue, either; the public spaces would be free. A change to this term would require a resolution of the Council. This and other terms governing the use and operation of the public parking spaces would be formalized and recorded against the property, and encompassed within the redevelopment agreement. Mark Daniels, attorney representing four residents, stated it is his belief, echoed by members of the community, that the incentive purchase price is deficient. Resident Joan Hozian Hooson asked for clarification on the terms of the agreement and the purchase price. She also expressed frustration regarding the purchase price. Alderman Zadrozny and Alderman Brookman asked City Manager Bartholomew to respond to the resident’s comments. City Manager Bartholomew stated if the developer purchases the dance building, the City property will sell for ten dollars, but the developer also has to commit to deeding that back to the City or the park district to make a park out of it. Director of CED Carlisle added that one other option for the operation of the green space is not necessarily deeded back, but it is reserved for public use and recorded against that property and the land even if it is privately owned. Resident Tom Lovestrand asked for clarification on who owns the property once the contract is signed. He also expressed frustration regarding the purchase agreement. General Counsel Friedman stated the developer will own the property of the dance building, but there will be a covenant recorded against it that states it cannot be developed and must be maintained as open space. Page 10 of 11 8/1/2022 Resident Jennifer Poonsapaya stated she has serious concerns about providing the land to the park district. She reflected on incidents and lack of maintenance at her neighborhood park. Alderman Brookman defended herself regarding comments previously made by a resident. Resident Caryssa Buchholz asked who will handle any soil remediation since the dance studio was a standard oil company, and if any geotechnical was completed on the parking lot. Joe Taylor, representative of 622 Graceland Apartments, LLC, stated the dance building has been remediated by the current owner. He also stated he will be maintaining the park, and will work with the residents for the design of the park. City Manager Bartholomew stated the vast majority of the City Council wants to keep the green space property as a City property and not dedicated to the park district.

River Rd Des Plaines, IL 60016 P: 847.391.5333 desplaines.org Date: July 12, 2022 To: Michael Bartholomew, City Manager From: Daniel Anderson, Fire Chief DA Subject: Side Letter Agreement with IAFF Local 4211 Issue: The current IAFF Local 4211 (“Local”) agreement contains a Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) carried over from the previous agreement that refers to language and terms of a 2019 Lieutenant promotion process. The promotion terms of the MOU were entered into the Rules and Regulations (“Rules”) of the Board of Fire & Police Commission (“Board”) after the MOU was approved. This MOU was not addressed at the time negotiations occurred for the 2021-2024 agreement as it was not relevant to the overall negotiations. However, the parties agreed it would be addressed before the next promotion examination in 2022. Fire Department staff and the Board did not address the 2019 promotions language during the recent rule revisions related to firefighter eligibility list testing made by the Board and approved by the City Council earlier this year. Once the new hire rules were in place and testing underway, fire department staff met with the Local to work out new promotions’ language. Analysis: Fire administrative staff met with representatives of the Local multiple times over the last six months to work through the promotion processes and acceptable language for both the City and Local. Both parties shared a common goal of achieving language that placed an emphasis on quality, fairness and establishing a process that was relevant to the position. Additionally, an emphasis was placed on developing the process and language that would eliminate the need to repeatedly negotiate or debate each component when a new promotion list needed to be established. The language and processes are consistent with the Fire Department Promotion Act (50 ILCS 742/). This agreement will be a Side Letter to the Agreement Between the City of Des Plaines and the Des Plaines Professional Firefighters Union – IAFF Local 4211 which will eliminate the MOU language for the 2019 testing process. MEMORANDUM Page 1 of 11 CONSENT AGENDA #8. While the promotion processes are determined by the Side Letter, the Board will still be required to post all preliminary and final eligibility lists as each component is completed. All funded and authorized promotions to Lieutenant will come from the final eligibility list posted by the Board. Recommendation: I recommend approval of the Side Letter Agreement regarding promotions be approved by the City Council.

Bartholomew, City Manager From: John T. Carlisle, AICP, Director of Community and Economic Development Emily Shaw, MPA, Management Analyst Subject: Class 6b – 580 S Wolf Rd LLC at 580 S Wolf Rd. (4th Ward) Issue: Applicant 580 S Wolf Rd LLC (Manager: Jan Leja, also of Highlander Transportation) is the contract purchaser of 580 S. Wolf Road. The applicant is requesting a resolution supporting a Cook County Class 6b Property Tax Incentive (6b), which is designed to encourage industrial investment by reducing the assessment level of eligible properties for 12 years. Qualified industrial properties are assessed at 10% of market value for the first 10 years, 15% in the 11th year and 20% in the 12th year. Normally such properties are assessed at 25% of market value. This application is based on the New Construction eligibility criterion. Analysis: The subject property consists of an 8.5-acre vacant site. The land is currently zoned M-2 General Manufacturing District and allows for a number of industrial uses. If approved the applicant intends to purchase the property and construct an approximately 63,000-square-foot distribution facility to become the new home of Highlander Transportation, currently based in Elk Grove Village. Distribution facilities are a permitted use in the M-2 Zoning District. The applicant projects the property value after full construction at approximately $16 million. This value far exceeds the minimum $10-per-building-square-foot of investment typically required for City support to 6b applications (approximately $252 per square foot). The proposed facility will face South Wolf Road and include 94 parking spaces, 66 trailer parking spaces, 27 exterior dock doors, fueling stations, and truck scales. The applicant expects to move 70 of its 100 current full-time employees to this site. The applicant anticipates that if the company grows at its expected rate, it will grow to have approximately 100-140 employees at the site in the next 2-5 years. The job number exceeds the City’s minimum expectation for number of employees (50) to be generated by a new construction project after two years. The attached application contains a sheet called “12-Year Tax Estimates,” which highlights scenarios based on current market values and Tax Year 2020 Rates. The applicant contends the investment in the property will not be feasible without approval of a 6b (Scenario No. 3) and projects that Scenario No. 2 will result in an additional approximately $4.7 million in property tax revenue over the 12-year life of the incentive. MEMORANDUM Page 1 of 65 NEW BUSINESS #2A. Tax Impact Scenarios (First 10 Years): 1.Estimated annual taxes as is (no improvements, no 6b): $146,661 2.Estimated annual taxes with proposed improvements with a 6b: $483,510 3.Estimated annual taxes with proposed improvements without a 6b: $1,208,775 City Council Action: The Council may choose to approve Resolution R-140-22, supporting and consenting to a Class 6b Application at 580 S Wolf Rd for 580 S Wolf Rd LLC.

Wolf Rd., Des Plaines, Illinois 60016 PIN: 09-18-400-006-0000 Dear John: 580 S Wolf Rd LLC, or an entity to be named, (“Applicant”) is requesting a Resolution supporting and consenting to a Class 6b Incentive on the above-referenced property based on new construction. The Applicant plans to purchase the subject property, demolish the existing structures thereon and construct an approximately 60,000 square foot building for its related entity, Highlander Transportation, Inc., to occupy the entire site for its use consisting of the warehousing and distribution in connection with freight forwarding. The subject property currently contains a number of buildings, garages and a few smaller structures as well as one concrete plant located on a roughly 370,260 square foot site. These existing structures have been underutilized, vacant and in poor condition for years. As a result, the Applicant plans to demolish all of the existing structures on the subject property and construct an approximately 60,000 square foot industrial building. The Applicant plans to invest approximately $16,000,000 to demolish the existing buildings, construct the new building and rehabilitate the site, which will create approximately 75 to 100 construction jobs. However, please note that the costs of the construction and rehabilitation could significantly vary as they are preliminary and additional reviews of the property as well as additional discussions with contractors must be completed to determine both. Currently, Highlander Transportation, Inc. leases approximately 30,000 square feet in Elk Grove Village as well as a few parking areas for its trucks. Highlander Transportation, Inc.’s business is growing and needs to expand its operation as soon as possible. Therefore, Highlander Transportation, Inc. plans to move its Elk Grove Village operations to the subject property to serve as its headquarters and bring 70 of its 100 current employees (all full-time) to the same. Highlander Transportation, Inc. believes that if it grows as anticipated that it will have approximately 100 to 140 employees at the site in the next 2 to 5 years. Additionally, Highlander Transportation, Inc. will look to hire all qualified City of Des Plaines residents for future hires. We note that Highlander Transportation, Inc. already has a number of City of Des Plaines residents as employees. Also please note that Highlander Transportation, Inc. offers employee health care, paid vacation and sick days. Attachment 1 Page 3 of 65 John Carlisle June 15, 2022 Page Two The City of Des Plaines can also expect that Highlander Transportation, Inc. and its employees will invest commercially back into the community by visiting local establishments such as restaurants, gas stations, grocery stores and more. In addition, the City of Des Plaines can expect that Highlander Transportation, Inc. will attract business and various customers to the City in the course of its operations. Highlander Transportation, Inc. currently supports its local community and looks forward to working with the City of Des Plaines to find ways it can continue to do so in the City. We have attached a breakdown showing what the taxes would be with a Class 6b Incentive as well as the comparably lower taxes on this property if it remains vacant and without any improvements. By looking at this breakdown, one can see that the overall taxes for this property with a Class 6b Incentive along with the investment to be put in will provide greater real estate taxes for this property than it would if it remained vacant. Additionally, because of the comparatively high taxes in Cook County it is likely the property will continue to remain vacant for a long time if the Applicant is unable to obtain a Class 6b Incentive. Without a Class 6b Incentive, the Applicant will not purchase the subject property, complete the new construction and rehabilitation and Highlander Transportation, Inc. will not expand its operations into the same. In addition, the Applicant will then look for another location where the property taxes are lower either outside of Cook County or in Cook County where it can secure a Class 6b Incentive. As a result, the subject property would most likely continue to sit vacant and on vacancy relief with the Cook County Assessor’s Office. As the above indicates, there are various benefits the City of Des Plaines will receive should the Applicant be granted the Class 6b Incentive. The Applicant is excited to move forward with the purchase, construction, rehabilitation and occupation of the subject property. Additionally, Highlander Transportation, Inc. is excited to expand its operations at the subject property in the City of Des Plaines and be a strong community member for many years to come. However, the above is all contingent on the Applicant receiving a Class 6b Incentive. In support of the above request for a Resolution in support of the Class 6b Incentive on the subject property, we have enclosed a City of Des Plaines Application and attachments. Therefore, please review the attached and place the Applicant on the agenda for the July 5, 2022 City of Des Plaines Council meeting, where it will present its request for the City to pass a Resolution supporting and consenting to a Class 6b Incentive on the subject property. Should you have any questions or concerns, or require additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me at (312) 782-8310. Very truly yours, SARNOFF & BACCASH Zachary A.

However, please note that the costs of the construction and rehabilitation could significantly vary as they are preliminary and additional reviews of the property as well as additional discussions with contractors must be completed to determine both. Attached please find a Survey, aerial, Concept Design, a Conceptual Site Plan, Floor Plan, Roof Plan and Exterior Elevations as well as a contractor estimate. Note that the Applicant does not anticipate any zoning amendments, variations and/or other relief relative to the proposed plans for improvement. Currently, Highlander Transportation, Inc. leases approximately 30,000 square feet in Elk Grove Village as well as a few parking areas for its trucks. Highlander Transportation, Inc.’s business is growing and needs to expand its operation as soon as possible. Therefore, Highlander Transportation, Inc. plans to move its Elk Grove Village operations to the subject property to serve as its headquarters and bring 70 of its 100 current employees (all full-time) to the same. Highlander Transportation, Inc. believes that if it grows as anticipated that it will have approximately 100 to 140 employees at the site in the next 2 to 5 years. Additionally, Highlander Transportation, Inc. will look to hire all qualified City of Des Plaines residents for future hires. We note that Highlander Transportation, Inc. already has a number of City of Des Plaines residents as employees.

Wolf Rd. in Des Plaines, Illinois (PINs: 09-18-400-006-0000), demolishing the existing structures thereon and constructing an approximately 60,000 square foot building for its related entity, Highlander Transportation, Inc., to occupy the entire site for its use consisting of the warehousing and distribution in connection with freight forwarding. The subject property currently contains a number of buildings, garages and a few smaller structures as well as one concrete plant located on a roughly 370,260 square foot site. These existing structures have been underutilized, vacant and in poor condition for years. As a result, the Applicant plans to demolish all of the existing structures on the subject property and construct an approximately 60,000 square foot industrial building. The Applicant plans to invest approximately $16,000,000 to demolish the existing buildings, construct the new building and rehabilitate the site, which will create approximately 75 to 100 construction jobs. However, please note that the costs of the construction and rehabilitation could significantly vary as they are preliminary and additional reviews of the property as well as additional discussions with contractors must be completed to determine both. Attached please find a Survey, aerial, Concept Design, a Conceptual Site Plan, Floor Plan, Roof Plan and Exterior Elevations as well as a contractor estimate. Note that the Applicant does not anticipate any zoning amendments, variations and/or other relief relative to the proposed plans for improvement. We have attached a breakdown showing what the taxes would be with a Class 6b Incentive as well as the comparably lower taxes on this property if it remains vacant and without any improvements. By looking at this breakdown, one can see that the overall taxes for this property with a Class 6b Incentive along with the investment to be put in will provide greater real estate taxes for this property than it would if it remained vacant. Additionally, because of the comparatively high taxes in Cook County it is likely the property will continue to remain vacant for a long time if the Applicant is unable to obtain a Class 6b Incentive. Without a Class 6b Incentive, the Applicant will not purchase the subject property, complete the new construction and rehabilitation and Highlander Transportation, Inc. will not expand its operations into the same. In addition, the Applicant will then look for another location where the property taxes are lower either outside of Cook County or in Cook County where it can secure a Class 6b Incentive. As a result, the subject property would most likely continue to sit vacant and on vacancy relief with the Cook County Assessor’s Office. Attachment 1 Page 60 of 65 Currently, Highlander Transportation, Inc. leases approximately 30,000 square feet in Elk Grove Village as well as a few parking areas for its trucks.

Highlander Transportation, Inc. currently supports its local community and looks forward to working with the City of Des Plaines to find ways it can continue to do so in the City. As the above indicates, there are various benefits the City of Des Plaines will receive should the Applicant be granted the Class 6b Incentive. The Applicant is excited to move forward with the purchase, construction, rehabilitation and occupation of the subject property. Additionally, Highlander Transportation, Inc. is excited to expand its operations at the subject property in the City of Des Plaines and be a strong community member for many years to come. However, the above is all contingent on the Applicant receiving a Class 6b Incentive.
