Subject: Disposal of City Vehicles/Equipment - Obenauf Auction Service
Issue: The City has a surplus of vehicles and equipment due to the purchase of replacements and maintaining right sizing of the City fleet. The vehicles/equipment have reached their useful life and are no longer of use to the City’s departments.
Analysis: The Public Works and Engineering Vehicle Maintenance Division has evaluated the existing fleet and has compiled the attached list of 14 vehicles/equipment that are no longer of use to the City.
Utilization of the online auction allows us to manage our own web listings and retain the vehicles/equipment at the Public Works facility. These vehicles do not have to be delivered to a remote location which frees up staff
time.
Recommendation: We request authorization from the City Council to dispose of the listed vehicles/equipment through Obenauf Auction Service, Inc., 810 Magna Drive, Round Lake, IL 60073.

Master Contract Between The City of Des Plaines and Stantec Consulting Services, Inc.
for Professional Engineering Services
This contract (the “Master Contract”) is dated as of Click here to enter a date. (the “Effective Date”) and is by and between the City of Des Plaines (the “City”) and Stantec Consulting Services, Inc. (the “Consultant”).
In consideration of the mutual covenants and promises contained herein, the parties agree as
follows:
ARTICLE 1. THE SERVICES
1.1 Intent; Conflicts. It is the intent of the parties that this Master Contract govern the relationship of the parties. Specific terms related to a project will be contained in a task order as provided in Section 1.2. In the event of a conflict between the provisions of this Master Contract
and any task order, then provisions of this Master Contract will apply and control.
1.2 Task Orders. The Consultant will perform services for the City from time to time as set forth in written task orders issued by the City on a project-by-project basis (the “Services”), provided, however, that any task order in an amount exceeding $25,000 must be approved by the City Council. A task order will be in the form generally as provided in Attachment A attached to
and by this reference incorporated into this Master Contract (a “Task Order”) and in final form acceptable to the City and executed by the Parties. Each Task Order will include the Services to be performed under that Task Order (collectively a “Project”).
1.3 Project Time. Each Task Order will include a time schedule for the Project (a “Project Schedule”) including without limitation a date for completion of the Project (the “Project
Completion Date”).
1.4 Term. This Master Contract commences on the Effective Date and terminates on December 31, 2027 unless terminated earlier pursuant to Article 8 of this Master Contract (the “Term”). All terms of this Master Contract, including without limitation pricing terms, are firm during the Term, unless a change is explicitly agreed to by the City in a Task Order.
1.5 No Guarantee of Work; Other Contracts. This Master Contract does not guarantee that the Consultant will be awarded Projects by the City, and the City has no duty or obligation to award Projects to the Consultant. Also, the City may enter into master contracts with other consultants, pursuant to which the City may award work from time to time at the City’s discretion.
1.6 Responsibility of Consultant to Perform. The Consultant must provide all
personnel necessary to complete the Services. The Consultant must perform the Services with its
own personnel and under the management, supervision, and control of its own organization unless otherwise approved by the City in writing. All sub-consultants and supplies used by the Consultant
Exhibit A Page 8 of 26
City of Des Plaines Professional Services Master Contract Professional Engineering Services
-2-
in the performance of Services must be acceptable to, and approved in advance by, the City. The City’s approval of any sub-consultant or supplier will not relieve the Consultant of full responsibility and liability for the provision, performance, and completion of the Services in full compliance with, and as required by or pursuant to, this Master Contract and the relevant Task
Order. All Services performed by any sub-consultant or supplier are subject to all of the provisions of this Master Contract and the relevant Task Order in the same manner as if performed directly by the Consultant. If any sub-consultant or supplier fails to properly perform any Services undertaken by it in compliance with this Master Contract or the relevant Task Order, then the Consultant, immediately on notice from the City, must remove that sub-consultant or supplier and
undertake the Services itself or replace the sub-consultant or supplier with a sub-consultant or supplier acceptable to the City. The Consultant will have no claim for damages, for compensation in excess of the Compensation, or for delay or extension of the Project Schedule as a result of any such removal or replacement.
1.7 Financial Ability to Perform. Each time when executing a Task Order, the
Consultant represents and declares that it is financially solvent, has the financial resources necessary, has sufficient experience and competence, and has the necessary capital, facilities, organization, and staff necessary to provide, perform, and complete the Project set forth in the Task Order in full compliance with, and as required by or pursuant to, the Task Order and this Master Contract.
ARTICLE 2. COMPENSATION AND PAYMENT
2.1 Pricing Schedule. As compensation for the performance of the Services (“Compensation”), the City will pay the Consultant the amounts set forth in each Task Order (“Project-Specific Pricing”). Except for the Compensation and any Project-Specific Pricing, the City will have no liability for any expenses or costs incurred by the Consultant.
2.2 Monthly Payment; Invoices. The Compensation for a Project will be paid in monthly installments. The Consultant must submit to the City, on a monthly basis unless the Parties agree in a Task Order to a different schedule, a written invoice for payment for completed work. The City may specify the specific day of the month on or before which invoices must be
filed. Each invoice must be accompanied by receipts, vouchers, and other documents as necessary to reasonably establish the Consultant’s right to payment of the Compensation stated in the invoice. In addition, each invoice must include (a) employee classifications, rates per hour, and hours worked by each classification and, if the Project is to be performed in separate phases, for each phase, (b) total amount billed in the current period and total amount billed to date and, if the Project
is to be performed in separate phases, for each phase, and (c) the estimated percent completion of the Project and, if the Project is to be performed in separate phases, for each phase.
2.3 Taxes. The Compensation includes applicable federal, State of Illinois, and local taxes of every kind and nature applicable to the services provided by the Consultant and all taxes,
contributions, and premiums for unemployment insurance, old age or retirement benefits,
pensions, annuities, or other similar benefits. The Consultant will never have a claim or right to claim additional compensation by reason of the payment of any such tax, contribution, premium, costs, royalties, or fees.

City of Des Plaines Professional Services Master Contract Professional Engineering Services
-3-
2.4 Final Payment. A Project, or a phase of a Project, will be considered complete on the date of final written acceptance by the City of the Services or the relevant phase of the Services. Services related to a submission of the Consultant will be deemed accepted by the City if the City does not object to those Services in writing within 30 days after the submission by the Consultant
of an invoice for final acceptance and payment. The City will make final payment to the Consultant within 30 days after final acceptance of the Services and any Project-Specific Compensation, after deducting therefrom charges, if any, as provided in this Master Contract or the relevant Task Order (“Final Payment”). The acceptance by the Consultant of Final Payment will operate as a full and complete release of the City by the Consultant of and from any and all
lawsuits, claims, or demands for further payment of any kind for the Services encompassed by the Final Payment.
2.5 Deductions. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Master Contract, the City may deduct and withhold from any payment or from Final Payment such amounts as may
reasonably appear necessary to compensate the City for any loss due to (1) Services that are
defective, nonconforming, or incomplete, (2) liens or claims of lien, (3) claims against the Consultant or the City made by any of the Consultant’s sub-consultants or suppliers or by other persons about the Services, regardless of merit, (4) delay by the Consultant in the completion of the Services, (5) the cost to the City, including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees, of
correcting any of the matters stated in this Section or exercising any one or more of the City’s
remedies set forth in Section 8.3 of this Master Contract. The City will notify the Consultant in writing given in accordance with Section 9.10 of this Master Contract of the City’s determination to deduct and withhold funds, which notice will state with specificity the amount of, and reason or reasons for, such deduction and withholding.
2.6 Use of Deducted Funds. The City will be entitled to retain any and all amounts
withheld pursuant to Section 2.5 above until the Consultant either has performed the obligations in question or has furnished security for that performance satisfactory to the City. The City will be entitled to apply any money withheld or any other money due to the Consultant to reimburse itself for any and all costs, expenses, losses, damages, liabilities, suits, judgments, awards, and reasonable attorneys’ fees (collectively “Costs”) incurred, suffered, or sustained by the City and
chargeable to the Consultant under this Contract.
2.7 Keeping Books and Accounts. The Consultant must keep accounts, books, and other records of all its billable charges and costs incurred in performing Services in accordance with generally accepted accounting practices, consistently applied, and in such manner as to permit
verification of all entries. The Consultant must make all such material available for inspection by
the City, at the office of the Consultant during normal business hours during the Term and for a period of three years after termination of this Master Contract. Copies of such material must be furnished to the City at the City’s request and expense.
ARTICLE 3. PERFORMANCE OF PROJECT AND SERVICES
3.1 Standard of Performance. The Consultant must perform the Services in a manner
consistent with the degree of care and skill ordinarily exercised by members of the same profession currently practicing under similar circumstances in the Chicago Metropolitan Region (the
Exhibit A Page 10 of 26
City of Des Plaines Professional Services Master Contract Professional Engineering Services
-4-
“Standard of Performance”). All Services must be free from defects and flaws, must conform to the requirements of this Master Contract and applicable Task Order, and must be performed in accordance with the Standard of Performance. The Consultant is fully and solely responsible for the quality, technical accuracy, completeness, and coordination of all Services, unless specifically
provided otherwise in a Task Order.
3.2 Correction of Defects. The Consultant must provide, for no additional Compensation and at no separate expense to the City, all work required to correct any defects or deficiencies in the performance of Services, regardless of whether the defect or deficiency relates to the work of the Consultant or of the Consultant’s sub-consultants or suppliers, so long as that
notice of the defects is given by the City to the Consultant within two years after completion of the Services.
3.3 Risk of Loss. The Consultant bears the risk of loss in providing all Services. The Consultant is responsible for any and all damages to property or persons caused by any Consultant
error, omission, or negligent act and for any losses or costs to repair or remedy any work
undertaken by the City based on the Services as a result of any such error, omission, or negligent act. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Master Contract or any Task Order, the Consultant’s obligations under this Section 3.3 exist without regard to, and may not be construed to be waived by, the availability or unavailability of any insurance, either of the City or the
Consultant, to indemnify, hold harmless, or reimburse the Consultant for damages, losses, or costs.
3.4 Opinions of Probable Cost. The Parties recognize that neither the Consultant nor the City has control over the costs of labor, materials, equipment, or services furnished by others or over competitive bidding, market or negotiating conditions, or construction contractors’ methods of determining their prices. Accordingly, any opinions of probable costs provided under
this Master Contract or a Task Order are considered to be estimates only, made on the basis of the
Consultant’s experience and qualifications, and those opinions represent the Consultant’s best judgment as an experienced and qualified professional, familiar with the industry. The Consultant does not guaranty that proposals, bids, or actual costs will not vary from the opinions prepared by the Consultant.
3.5 Responsibility for Work by Contractors. Except as provided in a Task Order, and
subject to the next sentence of this Section 3.5, the Consultant is not responsible for a contractor’s construction means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures, time of performance, compliance with law, or safety precautions and programs, and the Consultant does not guarantee the performance of a contractor. Nothing in the previous sentence may be construed or applied to limit the responsibility of the Consultant to properly perform, or the liability of the Consultant for
failure to properly perform, all of the Services required by the Consultant under this Master Contract or a Task Order, which Services may include contract and work oversight, inspections of work performed by a contractor, contract compliance services, and similar services.
3.6 City Responsibilities. Except as provided in this Master Contract or in a Task
Order, the City, at its sole cost and expense, will have the following responsibilities:
Exhibit A Page 11 of 26
City of Des Plaines Professional Services Master Contract Professional Engineering Services
-5-
(a) To designate a person with authority to act as the City’s representative on each Project. In the absence of a written designation, the City’s representative will be the City’s Director of Public Works and Engineering. The City’s representative will have the authority to act on behalf of the City as provided in a Task Order, except on matters that require approval of
the City Council.
(b) To provide to the Consultant all criteria and information about the requirements for a Project or Services, including, as relevant, the City’s objectives and constraints, schedule, space, capacity and performance requirements, and budgetary limitations.
(c) To provide to the Consultant existing studies, reports, and other available data
relevant to a Project.
(d) To arrange for access to, and make provisions for the Consultant to enter on, public and private property as reasonably required for a Project.
(e) To provide, as relevant, surveys describing physical characteristics, legal limitations, and utility locations for a Project and the services of other consultants when the
services of other consultants are requested by the Consultant and are necessary for the performance of the Services.
(f) To provide structural, mechanical, chemical, air and water tests, tests for hazardous materials, and other laboratory and environmental tests, inspections, and reports required by law to be provided by the City in connection with a Project, except the extent such tests, inspections,
or reports are part of the Services.
(g) To review reports, documents, data, and all other information presented by the Consultant as appropriate.
(h) To provide approvals from all governmental authorities having jurisdiction over a Project when requested by the Consultant, except the extent such approvals are part of the Services.
(i) To provide, except as provided under Article 5 and Article 6 of this Master Contract, all accounting, insurance, and legal services as may be necessary from time to time in the judgment of the City to protect the City’s interests with respect to a Project.
(j) To attend Project-related meetings.
(k) To give prompt written notice to the Consultant whenever the City observes or
otherwise becomes aware of any development that affects the scope or timing of Services, except that the inability or failure of the City to give any such a notice will not relieve the Consultant of any of its responsibilities under this Master Contract or any Task Order.
3.7 Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence for each Project and all activities with
regard to the performance of a Project.
Exhibit A Page 12 of 26
City of Des Plaines Professional Services Master Contract Professional Engineering Services
-6-
3.8 Suspension of Services, Project. The City, at any time and for any reason, may suspend work on any or all Services or Project by issuing a written work suspension notice to the Consultant. The Consultant must stop the performance of all Services within the scope of the suspension notice until the City directs the Consultant in writing to resume performance.
ARTICLE 4. TASK CHANGE ORDERS; DELAYS
4.1 Task Change Orders. The City, from time to time, may issue a written order modifying or otherwise changing the scope of the Services included in a Task Order (a “Task Change Order”) provided, however, that any Task Change Order in an amount exceeding $25,000 must be approved by the City Council. The Task Change Order will be generally in the form
attached to and by this reference incorporated into this Master Contract as Attachment C. The Consultant may request a Task Change Order based on a material change to a Project or any Services required as part of a Project. A Task Change Order may include additions to and deletions from the Services and will include any equitable increases or decreases to the Compensation for the Project.
4.2 Revision Notices. Within 10 days after the date of a Task Change Order, and in any event before the Consultant begins work on any changed Services, the Consultant must notify the City in writing if the Consultant desires a revision to the Task Change Order (a “Revision Notice”). The Revision Notice must clearly state the Consultant’s requested revisions and the
reasons for the revisions. If the City agrees to any revision, then the City will issue a revised Task
Change Order in a form acceptable to the Parties. If the Consultant does not submit a Revision Notice within the 10-day period, then the Consultant will be deemed to have accepted the Task Change Order and the Task Change Order will be final.
4.3 Disagreements over Task Change Order Terms. If the City and the Consultant
cannot agree on the proposed revisions to the Compensation or Project Schedule terms of a Task
Change Order, then the Parties will apply the dispute resolution provisions of this Master Contract in order to reach agreement. In that event, the Consultant must proceed diligently with the revised Services as directed by City pending resolution of the disagreement. The Consultant will be compensated equitably for the work the Consultant undertakes during the disagreement resolution
process.
4.4 No Change in Absence of Task Change Order. No claim for an adjustment in Compensation or Project Schedule will be made or allowed unless it is embodied in a Task Change Order signed by the City and the Consultant. If the Consultant believes it is entitled to an adjustment in the Compensation or Project Schedule terms that has not been included, or fully
included, in a Task Change Order, then the Consultant may submit to the City a written request
for the issuance of, or revision of, a Task Change Order including the desired adjustment. The Consultant’s request must be submitted before the Consultant proceeds with any Services for which an adjustment is desired.
4.5 Delays. If a delay in providing Services results from one or more causes that could
not be avoided or controlled by the Consultant, then the Consultant may be entitled to an extension
of the Project Schedule for a period of time equal to that delay, or an adjustment in Compensation
Exhibit A Page 13 of 26
City of Des Plaines Professional Services Master Contract Professional Engineering Services
-7-
for extra costs related to the delay, or both. The Consultant must notify the City in writing within 10 days after the start of the delay and again in writing within 10 days after the delay has ended (the “Delay Period”). The first notice must state the cause or causes of the delay and the impact of the delay on providing Services. The second notice must state the cause or causes of the delay,
the length of the day, the reasons why the delay disrupted performance of the Services and the Consultant’s request, if any, for a change in Compensation or Project Schedule. If the Consultant fails to submit notices as provided in this Section 4.5, then the Consultant will be deemed to have waived any right to an adjustment in Compensation for the Services.

Subject: Lead Service Line Replacements, Change Order No. 2
Issue: Due to utility and routing conflicts discovered during construction, Change Order No. 2 is necessary to final out the 2023 Lead Line Replacement Project.
Analysis: At its April 3, 2023 meeting, the City Council awarded the Lead Service Line Replacement Project to the low bidder, John Neri Construction Co., Inc., in the amount of $500,000. Change Order No. 1 was subsequently authorized for the Emergency Replacement of the Elmhurst Road water main for an additional amount of $424,677.
Due to utility and service line routing conflicts discovered during construction, additional resources and material were required to complete the projects. These revisions resulted in Change Order No. 2 in the amount of $24,978.25. This increased the total contract amount to $949,655.25.
Recommendation: We recommend that the Council City approve Change Order No. 2 to the 2023
Lead Service Line Replacement contract with John Neri Construction Co., Inc., 770 Factory Road, Addison, IL 60101, in the amount of $24,978.25. Source of funding will be the Water Fund.

Issue: The City is required to have a Certificate of Authority to participate in contracts and joint participation agreements with the State of Illinois, which includes the purchase of road salt.
Analysis: At its March 18, 2024, meeting, the City Council adopted Resolution R-75-24 which
authorized a Certificate of Authority with the State of Illinois. The City’s General Counsel has since worked with State officials to clarify the authority of the designated officials. The certificate allows specific individuals to act on behalf of the City as it pertains to joint participation agreements.
We are recommending that the City Council rescind Resolution R-75-24 and designate the City Manager,
the Director of Public Works and Engineering and the Assistant Director of Public Works to be authorized to execute participation agreements on behalf of the City.
The City Council will still be required to approve final contracts and agreements.
Recommendation: We recommend the City Council rescind Resolution R-75-24 and approve Resolution R-91-24.

APPROVING A FINAL
PUD PLAT & FINAL
PLAT OF SUBDIV
FOR 180 N. EAST
RIVER RD
Ordinance
Z-5-24
Director of Community & Economic Development Rogers reviewed a memorandum dated
March 21, 2024.
Petitioner MAS Land Investments, LLC, owner of the subject property, intends to annex
land to the City of Des Plaines and build a townhouse development. The subject property is
located in unincorporated Cook County along N. East River Road and is comprised of one
40,245-square-foot (0.92-acre) parcel.
The subject property was improved with a one-story, 1,665-square-foot residence, a 1,194-
square-foot detached garage (including two additions), two frame sheds approximately 82
and 90 square feet in size, and a combination of concrete and gravel driveway and parking
areas. However, these improvements have since been demolished.
The proposal includes the removal of all existing site improvements to redevelop the subject
property into a 16-unit PUD similar to the Insignia Glen PUD located south of the subject
property at 172 N. East River Road, which is already incorporated within Des Plaines.
The proposed development consists of four separate three-story principal buildings—each
with four units. The anticipated unit mix will be predominately two-bedrooms, but the floor
plan is adaptable to create a third bedroom; the developer has not finalized the unit mix. Each
unit will have an attached two-car garage on the lower level, living space with a balcony on
the middle level, and bedrooms on the top level.
The proposal intends to mirror the general building and driveway design of the existing
Insignia Glen development, built via PUD in the early 2000s, and will utilize the same private
drive for access to East River Road via an existing access easement that was granted and
recorded via the early 2000s PUD. For this reason, the existing gravel curb cut onto the
subject property will be removed and replaced with turf and landscaping areas. New
walkways are proposed along the private drive (south property line)—with walkway
connections to each unit—and along N. East River Road (east property line) of the subject
property for pedestrian access throughout the site and connections to the existing Insignia
Glen PUD. The development also proposes common green spaces for residences opposite
the driveway entrances where separate front door, porch area, and walkway connections are
provided.
Interspersed throughout the proposed development is a landscaped common plaza of
approximately 20,986 square feet with plantings, walkways, and open green space. There is
no proposed stormwater detention area on Insignia Glen 2, but one private improvement is
the addition of 12-inch storm sewer to connect with the existing detention area located on
Insignia Glen 1 development at 172 N. East River Road. Eight visitor spaces are interspersed
through the development, which in addition to the 32 outdoor and 32 indoor spaces for each
of the 16 units would amount to a full total of 72 spaces, exceeding the minimum
requirement.
The petitioner’s final proposal reflects the site design of the preliminary plans, including the
exception requests acknowledged in Ordinance Z-26-23, which granted preliminary
approval. These exceptions are pursuant to Section 12-3-5 and would grant relief from the
bulk regulations of the R-3 district:
Minimum lot area: Eight units are proposed with a lot area of 1,040 square feet, and
eight units are proposed at 1,248 square feet. The proposed lot area for each unit
includes only the livable space inside the building and a small landscaped front yard.
All other areas in the development (e.g. open space, private drives, stormwater
basin) are allocated not to dwelling units but instead to the development overall. The
Page 6 of 10 4/1/2024
minimum lot area per dwelling unit requirement pursuant to Section 12-7-2.J is
2,800 square feet.
Minimum rear yard: Pursuant to Section 12-7-2.J, a minimum 30-foot-rear-yard-
setback is required for buildings in the R-3 district that exceed 35 feet in height.
However, the westernmost building is proposed to be setback 22 feet from the rear
property line requiring a PUD exception.
Building Design Standards: Pursuant to Section 12-3-11, attached single-family
residential (i.e., townhouses) shall be constructed with 100 percent face brick,
natural stone, or anchored or adhered masonry veneer on all street facing and side
elevations with at least two complimentary colors or materials and a minimum of
eight feet from the top of foundation on all remaining elevations.. However, the
elevations do include non-masonry materials (i.e., siding) on street facing elevations.
The petitioner submitted a Final Landscape Plan that appears to conform with the
requirements of Chapter 12-10. For example, building foundation landscaping is installed at
the bases of the buildings, shade trees are interspersed throughout common areas and open
space, and at lot lines where required— particularly at the north and west lot lines where the
development abuts a single-family neighborhood—plantings are shown such that when they
are mature, they should, in concert with the proposed fencing, provide ample screening.
The subject property currently has direct access to N. East River Road (public street).
However, based on the design of the proposed development this access point will be removed
and sole access to the subject property will be via the existing private road located at 172 N.
East River Road; cross-access agreement is effective. A portion of the subject property
currently extends to the centerline of N. East River Road. As such, the proposal includes a
dedication of the eastern 4,186-square-foot portion of the property to be utilized for street
purposes.
The petitioner has submitted a construction schedule as required by Section 12-3-5.H. In
summary, the developer intends to construct the proposed development starting with
complete sitework of the entire property and then installing each of the four buildings from
east to west, starting with the building that would front N. East River Road
The proposal includes a subdivision of the subject property from one, 43,476- square-foot
lot to 17 lots of record, including a separate lot for each of the 16 units (Lots 1-16) and one
lot (Lot 17) for the common area of the PUD. The petitioner received PZB approval of the
Tentative Plat to subdivide the existing lot into 17 lots. Now the petitioner is requesting a
Final Plat of Subdivision, titled Insignia Glen 2 Subdivision, for 17 lots as detailed in the
Final Plat of Subdivision.
The subdivision plat shows the location, boundaries, and size of each lot, which vary from
1,040 to 1,248 square feet in size for the townhouse lots and equates to 20,986 square feet
for the single common space lot proposed, totaling 39,290 square feet (0.90-acres). The
remaining 4,186 square feet account for the portion of the property that extends into the N.
East River Road right-of-way, which is proposed to be dedicated to Cook County as part of
this request.
The Insignia Glen 2 Subdivision shows the following easements and building lines: (i) a new
25-foot front building setback line along North East River Road where the proposed
subdivision abuts the street; (ii) a new 10-foot side building setback line along the north and
south of the proposed subdivision; (iii) a new 22-foot rear building setback line along the
west boundary of the proposed subdivision; (iv) a 2.5-foot cross access easement located on
172 N. East River Road but serves the subject property; and (v) a blanket easement for
ingress, egress, public and private utilities, and drainage for Lot 17. The subdivision plat also
Page 7 of 10 4/1/2024
shows the proposed dedication of the eastern 40-foot-long by 104-foot-wide portion of the
subject property.
The Subdivision Regulations allows the City to require various right-of-way (ROW)
improvements based on criteria such as traffic and effect on adjacent properties. Certain
underground infrastructure is required to be installed to the standards required by Public
Works and Engineering (PWE). Under Section 13-3-1, the developer is required to: (i) grind
and resurface the entire width of the private drive; (ii) add new five-foot-wide sidewalk along
N. East River Road for the entire frontage of the proposed development with depressed curbs
at the private road entrance; (iii) add a new storm sewer connection and extend the sanitary
sewer structure along N. East River Road for the entire frontage of the proposed
development; and add a fire hydrant and light pole along the north property line at the end
of both proposed private roads. The developer has provided PWE with an estimated cost of
both private and public improvements totaling $379,308, an amount for which PWE has
approved as noted in the PWE Approval Letter.
The PZB split their determination into separate motions: (i) voting 5-0 to recommend that
City Council approve the Final PUD with the three requested PUD exceptions and staff
recommended conditions; and (ii) voting 5-0 to recommend that City Council approve the
Final Plat of Subdivision.
If the City Council decides to approve these requests, staff and the PZB recommend the
following conditions:
1. All proposed improvements and modifications shall be in full compliance with all
applicable codes and ordinances. Drawings may have to be modified to comply with
current codes and ordinances.
2. Improvements to the private drive for driveway curb cuts and on-street parking shall
comply with the cross-access easement recorded with the approved PUD for the
Insignia Glen development immediately to the south.
3. All governing documents for the construction and ongoing operation of the proposed
development including but not limited to any development/annexation agreements,
covenants, conditions, and restrictions, or any operating reciprocal easement
agreements must be submitted to and approved by the City’s General Counsel prior
to the recording of the Final Plat of PUD or Final Plat of Subdivision.
4. All land use and permitting approvals shall not become effective until the City
finalizes approval of annexation of the subject property.
The attorney for the petitioner spoke on their behalf.
A resident expressed her concern regarding increased traffic with the development of the
units.

CONSIDER
APPROVING A
ZONING MAP AMD &
MAJ VAR FOR 1958
ILLINOIS ST TO
ALLOW A THIRD
DWELLING UNIT
Ordinance
Z-6-24
Director of Community & Economic Development Rogers reviewed a memorandum dated
March 14, 2024.
The property is currently occupied by a two-story building with a basement and a two car,
detached garage with a hard surface parking area adjacent to the garage. The property is
permitted to have two dwelling units. The petitioner is requesting a zoning map amendment
from R-1, Single-Family Residential to R-3, Townhouse Residential. Variations for parking
and reducing lot area are necessary zoning relief to allow for the use of this property as a
three-unit, or “three-flat,” residential building.
Uses Within the Petitioner’s Response to Standards, they state the intent of the requests is to
“permit the legal use of the property” with the three dwelling units. Section 12-5-5 allows
“lawfully existing nonconforming uses” to persist as long as otherwise lawful; i.e. if the
property was permitted as a three-flat per prior zoning rules or relief, it would be permitted
to continue to operate as such. However, for this property to have been considered a “legal
non-conforming use” the use must have previously been allowed by the Zoning Ordinance
in effect when the use was established.
The zoning for this property was two-family residential when it was constructed between
1969 and 1971, meaning only two dwelling units were permitted to exist. As discussed in
the Property/Zoning History section of this report, identical zoning map amendment and
variation requests to permit three dwelling units were denied by the Zoning Board of Appeals
in 1973 and 1983. Since 1983, there is no documentation demonstrating the three-unit use
was established legally, so the use as a three-flat would be considered an illegal non-
conforming use. Therefore, the zoning map amendment and variations are necessary to allow
for the intended use of this building for three separate dwelling units
Any non-conforming use is subject to Section 12-5-5 of the Zoning Ordinance, which limits
nonconforming uses (i.e., a two flat within in a single-family residential zoning district) from
having any improvements completed unless they can be considered ordinary repair and
maintenance. The property, if used for two dwelling units, would lose its legal non-
conforming status if the owner structurally altered the building or enlarged it in any way.
Simply, if an addition is added to the building at any point in the future or structural changes
needed to occur to remedy any defects, the entire building would no longer be able to have
two dwelling units, and instead would need to be de-converted to meet standards of a single-
family residence. Granting this zoning relief would eliminate this legal non-conforming
status and allow the property to have three dwelling units without the limitations of Section
12-5-5.
It is important to note that no building permits are on record for the conversion of the
basement into a “garden unit.” Unless a previous building permit is provided demonstrating
this conversion was performed with City approval, the unit will be required to be updated to
meet International Building Code (IBC) requirements and pass a building inspection prior to
the issuance of a rental license of the garden unit.

The purpose of a zoning map amendment is to determine whether an existing zoning district
is suitable for a location and, if not, which zoning district would be more suitable, given the
context of the neighborhood, city goals, and local, state, and national development trends.
The Amenities and Services Map demonstrates the proximity of the property to amenities
within a “walkable” distance, which is approximately a half mile, or an 8–15-minute walk
for the average person.
Although a specific project can be considered alongside any zoning application, zoning
change deliberation often looks at a property at a larger scale within the neighborhood and
city. A Site Plan Review, as required by Section 12-3-2, was performed for this property.
The R-1, Single-Family Residential district limits the number of dwellings to one unit per
parcel. To allow for more than one residence on this property, the property would need to
have the zoning changed to a higher density zoning, like R-3, Townhouse Residential.
Multiple family residences are defined as, “residential building(s) containing three or more
dwelling units.” Therefore, if re-zoned to R-3, where multiple family dwellings are allowed
but single-family dwellings are not allowed, the property would not be able to de-convert
any of the three units and continue to be a permitted use in this zoning district. In other
words, choosing to rezone the property represents a commitment that the building will be
used for three units.
The off-street parking requirement for a multiple-family building (any residential building
with three or more dwelling units) in the R-3 district is two parking spaces per dwelling unit.
Per the Petitioner’s Narrative, three off-street parking spaces are provided via the garage.
Six off-street parking spaces would be required, so a major variation is requested to provide
relief from this requirement. On-street parking is available on the east side of Illinois Street,
on the opposite side of the street from the property; however, within the Zoning Ordinance,
only off-street parking can count towards fulfilling the parking requirement. On-street
parking cannot be reserved for specific properties.
The 1960 Zoning Ordinance in effect during the construction of these buildings also required
two off-street spaces per dwelling unit. Historic aerials indicate the three-car garage or a
similarly sized structure and the parking pad adjacent to the property has existed since the
property was developed in 1971, for a total of four off-street parking spaces on the property.
Adding one dwelling unit would require two additional parking spaces, per the zoning
ordinance. A variation is requested to allow the existing four spaces to satisfy parking
requirements.
The zoning district of a property determines the required minimum lot area. Particularly
when expressed as a “per unit” ratio, this rule is intended to control density. For the R-1
zoning district, one dwelling unit is allowed on a property and the lot must be a minimum of
6,875 sq. ft. For the R-3 zoning district, multiple units are allowed, but 2,800 square feet
must be provided per dwelling unit. To calculate whether it meets this requirement, the total
lot area is divided by the number of dwelling units. A variation is necessary if the property
is re-zoned to R-3, but a variation is not required for the existing non-conforming use.
The PZB voted 4-1 to recommend approval of the map amendment and major variations.
Should the City Council vote to approve the variation request, the following condition is
recommended. This condition is incorporated in the approving ordinance:
1. Prior to issuance of rental license, property owner must provide either evidence of
previous permits converting the basement unit to meet building code requirements
or pass a City building inspection demonstrating sufficient compliance with
applicable International Building Code for a new unit of this type.

Subject: Consideration for Library Board
Dear Mayor Goczkowski,
I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to express my sincere interest in serving on
the Des Plaines Public Library Board. As a resident who deeply values community
involvement, I am eager to contribute to the continued success and growth of our award-
winning library.
My partner and I chose to relocate to Des Plaines for its strong sense of community, and the
library has played a pivotal role in fostering that connection. Personally, I have found the
library to be an invaluable resource. Whether it's utilizing the study rooms for remote work,
using the computers for printing and daily tasks, or exploring the vast collection of materials,
I am constantly reminded of the vital role the library plays in our community.
I firmly believe that the library should be a welcoming space for all members of our
community, providing access to resources and opportunities for personal growth and
enrichment, and if selected as a board member, this will be one of my guiding principles.
I have attached my resume for your review. Thank you for considering my application. I am
eager to contribute my time and energy to ensure that the Des Plaines Public Library
continues to thrive as a cornerstone of our city.
Sincerely,
Robert Flinn

Subject: Consideration of a Resolution awarding 37 Grant Recipients 2024 Social Service Program Funding in a total amount Not-to-Exceed $250,000
Issue: As part of the FY2024 Budget, City Council allocated $250,000.00 for disbursement to social service agencies that provide services to Des Plaines residents in need. The Human Services Division (HS) has solicited and evaluated grant requests from social service agencies that serve the Des Plaines community. At
this time, HS seeks the City Council concurrence with the funding allocation as recommended.
Analysis: The 2024 Social Service Funding notification, the application and timeline were made available on the City’s website on January 31, 2024. Applications were due March 1, 2024. HS contacted the agencies that received
funding in 2023, those that inquired about the program throughout the year, as well as those agencies that applied
for funding in the past but did not request funds the prior year. The City received a total request for social service funding in the amount of $341,486.00 from 37 agencies.
The Grant Review Committee of 7 representatives from various City Departments was formed to objectively
evaluate all grant applications, and collaboratively make recommendations regarding funding. All the agencies have expressed gratitude for the City’s program and stressed how valuable local support is for leveraging funding from public and private sources, which strengthens their service capabilities for our residents.
2023 Program Review: To better understand the needs of the residents seeking referral services through Human Services (HS), staff tracked and reviewed the calls for service in 2023, which is outlined in Table One below. Review of this information provides staff data to better understand the types of social service organizations the City depends on to refer residents requiring resources. Table Three includes the organizations funded through the Social
Service Funding Program in 2023 by type, which closely aligns with the service referrals sought by the
community.

in its sole discretion, was allowed to award additional points (up to 25) to agencies for high need for the
provided services and lack of alternative resources in the community.

2024 Point Allocation
Currently, there is no set criterion to deny an organization Social Service Program Funding beyond the requirement that they must be submitted by the deadline and serve Des Plaines residents. If they meet some of the criteria set forth above, they will receive some level of funding for that year. To ensure there is enough budgeted funding to assist all applicants, the staff determines the value of each point awarded, by dividing the total amount of funding by the number of points agencies received during the rating process. In 2024, to
calculate the value of each point an agency received, staff divided $250,000 by the total amount of points received by the 37 agencies (3073 points) during the review process, which valued each point at $81.35. No agency received more than what they requested. The remaining funds in the amount of $2,871.01 were awarded to W.I.N.G.S., the only agency in the community providing emergency housing for women and their
children fleeing domestic violence.

Subject: Amendments to City Code Prohibiting the Sale of Illicit THC Products and Kratom
Issue: There has been a proliferation of retail stores in the City and surrounding communities offering unregulated and untested products derived from industrial hemp as well as a separate botanical ingredient
called Kratom. These products are touted as alternatives to cannabis that produce similar intoxicating effects,
but are not regulated, inspected, or taxed in the same manner as legal cannabis.
Analysis: In 2019, the General Assembly adopted the Cannabis Regulation and Tax Act (“CRTA”), which legalized the cultivation, sale, and consumption of cannabis in the state of Illinois. The CRTA, along with its
predecessor, the Compassionate Use of Medical Cannabis Act (“Medical Use Act”), required that cannabis
only be grown, processed, and sold by facilities licensed by the State of Illinois. Licensed cannabis growers, processors, and dispensaries are required to abide by strict regulations governing the quality, potency, and purity of cannabis. Legally sold cannabis is required to be free of harmful pesticides and dangerous additives. Cannabis cannot be sold to persons under 21, with the limited exception of certain persons with qualifying
medical conditions under the Medical Use Act.
Although “cannabis” and “hemp” are commonly referred to as separate plants, they are distinct strains of the same plant – Cannabis Savita. The significant physical difference between the two strains is the concentration of delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol (Delta-9 THC) in the plant on a dry weight basis. If a cannabis sativa plant
has a concentration of 0.3% or less Delta-9 THC, it is legally considered hemp, or “industrial hemp.”
Conversely, the plant has a concentration of more than 0.3% Delta-9 THC it is considered cannabis and subject to regulation under the CRTA or the Medical Use Act.
The 2018 Federal Farm Bill legalized the cultivation of industrial hemp on the assumption that the plant was
psychoactively inert and could not be used for intoxicating purposes. However, a cannabis sativa plant can
include up to 100 different naturally occurring chemical compounds, called “cannabinoids.” Although Delta-9 THC is the most commonly known cannabinoid to produce an intoxicating effect, other cannabinoids that naturally occur in both “industrial hemp” and “cannabis” can also produce intoxicating or psychoactive effects.
Page 1 of 6
NEW BUSINESS #3A.
Over the past few years, products synthesized from legally grown industrial hemp have been marketed as having similar effects to cannabis thanks to higher concentrations of other cannabinoids, including Delta-8 THC, Delta-10 THC, and THC-0. Because these products are derived or synthesized from industrial hemp,
they fall into a legal gray area unregulated by the CRTA or the Medical Use Act. Further, these products are not included in the Federal Drug Schedules established by the Controlled Substances Act.
Although there have been various legislative proposals at both the state and federal levels, there is no general prohibition on production or sale of these unregulated THC products, although many municipalities have
recently imposed local bans on these products. City staff has observed a number of retail business throughout the city offering these products, as well as products derived from Kratom, a botanical substance from Southeast Asia. Some of these businesses appear similar to licensed cannabis dispensaries and consumer confusion is likely.
City staff has determined that the sale of unregulated THC products and Kratom in the City is not beneficial to the City or its residents. These products are not tested for pesticides or other adulterating substances, are not measured for potency, and are not subject to the state and local taxes imposed on legal cannabis. The sale of these products does not benefit the health, safety or welfare of the City’s residents or the City as a whole.
City Council Action: The City Council should consider whether to adopt an ordinance amending Title 5 of the City Code to prohibit the sale of “Illicit THC Products” and Kratom. General Counsel has prepared a draft ordinance that implements such a ban after a waiting period to allow existing retailers to dispose or sell their current stock of product. The City Council should determine how long of a delay in the effective date of the sales ban would be appropriate. It should be noted that nothing in the proposed ordinance would prohibit
the establishment of a cannabis dispensary that is fully licensed by the state Department of Finance and Professional Regulation from opening and operating in the City.
