IV. MOSQUITO ABATEMENT AND ZIKAVIRUS UPDATE
The return of warm, wet, summertime weather also heralds the return of mosquitos.
This year, the return is accompanied by health concerns about the potential for Illinois
area mosquitos to carry the Zika virus that has impacted southern latitudes. Patrick I resin,
an entomologist with the Cook County Northwest Mosquito Abatement District, will make
a short presentation about the agency's mosquito abatement efforts. He will also
provide an update on the Zika virus.
V. LEVEE 37 STATUS UPDATE
At the September 22, 2015 Committee of the Whole meeting, the Village Board
disucssed the final report of the Levee 37 Flood Study. One of the outcomes of this
discussion included direction to further examine the viability of constructing
recommended pumping station and storm water collection system improvements. Staff
and representatives from engineering consultant Christopher B. Burke Engineering, LTD
will provide an update on the status of this work.

VI. SIDEWALK PROGRAMS REPORT
The Village of Mount Prospect maintains almost 300 miles of sidewalk. These walks are
installed in public rights-of-way owned and/or maintained by the Village. Most sidewalks
were originally constructed as part of real estate development projects and became the
Village's responsibility when the projects were accepted by the Village Board. Staff will
provide an update on the current condition of sidewalks, maintenance programs, and the
regulatory environment impacting pedestrian facilities.
VII. STATE OF THE STREETS / RESURFACING PROGRAM UPDATE
In 2014, the Village Board, working in conjunction with the Finance Commission,
developed and implemented a revised funding mechanism for the Street Resurfacing
Program. The purpose of revised funding was to eliminate a backlog of projects and
return the pace of work to an activity level that supports the targeted goal of an average
20 -years life for Village streets.
Since 2014, 35.2 miles (26% of total street inventory) have been resurfaced.
Last winter, staff performed a pavement evaluation study to assess the current condition
of Village streets. Staff will present the findings of this report.

IV. TELEVISION SERVICES PROGRAMMING EVALUATION REPORT:
Cable Production Coordinator Howard Kleinstein presented the history of Mount
Prospect's local access cable channel and the Television Services Division which was
established in 1986. The MPTV brand was established in 1996 to provide a consistent
naming convention while the channel location and cable providers changed over time.
He stated MPTV 2 was created after the Village entered into intergovernmental
agreements that expanded programming. He stated in 2008 MPTV began live -streaming
and providing Video -On -Demand (VOD) replays of its meetings and other programming
via the Village's website. In 2015, AT&T U -Verse began carriage of MPTV and MPTV2
on its Access Channel Sub -Menu Application.
Mr. Kleinstein provided an overview of current programming on MPTV and MPTV2. The
programming includes coverage of meetings and events, creating promotional material
and providing Public Service Announcements or "how to" videos. In addition, the Mount
Prospect Public Library, Mt. Prospect Park District, Mount Prospect Historical Society
and more have various programming that airs on MPTV or MPTV2.
He highlighted how new technology has changed viewing habits. High Definition (HD)
and Smart TV's allowed for HD programming to become the preferred technology. He
stated channel surfing has been replaced by program guides built into remotes. Cable
providers do not permit local access channels to populate the guide with specific
Committee of the Whole Page 1 of 3 04/12/16
Committee of the Whole Meeting - June 14, 2016 Page 4 of 71
programming and are only provided general descriptions like "local access" or
"educational programming". Also, there is an increasing trend for people to use Netflix,
Hulu, HBO Go, Amazon Instant and other "Over The Top" services and eliminating cable
services.
Mr. Kleinstein provided recommendations for increasing MPTV's programming appeal
and reach to social media users. One approach is to create a YouTube Channel to host
brief news and informational videos and create a monthly half hour talk show to present
on current issues in the Village. Additionally, he recommended consolidating MPTV and
MPTV2 to reduce equipment costs. MPTV2 is underutilized with too much air time
available to properly populate.
General comments from Village Board members included the following items:
• There were comments in support of the proposed direction and changes for the
Television Services Division and MPTV programming.
• There was a question regarding state law requiring cable providers to reserve
channels for local municipalities and if the Village could switch from a basic cable
to a HD cable channel.
• There were questions regarding YouTube features and utilizing Twitter and
Facebook for promoting programming and also to communicate with the public in
the case of an emergency.
• There was general discussion regarding the importance of keeping current with
social media technology and using available platforms to reach constituents and
promote Village news and initiatives.
• There was discussion regarding utilizing comments, feedback and view counts to
assist with directing content to keep programming relevant to viewers.
Louis Goodman, 310 N. School asked if MPTV and MPTV2 broadcast the same
information. He also asked if programming is available in multiple languages.
V. UPDATE OF OLD TOWN SANITARY DISTRICT:
Public Works Director Sean Dorsey provided an overview of the dissolution of the Old
Town Sanitary District (OTSD). House Bill 3273 signed by the Governor in July 2015
established criteria for the dissolution of certain sanitary districts. He stated once a
sanitary district is dissolved the underlying municipalities that co -exist within the
boundaries of a sanitary district would assume ownership and maintenance
responsibilities. The OTSD covered areas of Prospect Heights, Wheeling, Arlington
Heights and a relatively very small portion of Mount Prospect. The areas impacted are
near the intersection of Wolf Road and Euclid Avenue and near Camp McDonald Road
and Rand Road. The Village was notified by attorney letter that OTSD was dissolved
and that the Village assumed the underlying OTSD assets. He stated staff has televised
the sewer mains and manholes serving these areas and the location of these assets
were surveyed and georeferenced utilizing GPS. He stated that the OSTD infrastructure
within Mount Prospect is in good shape.
Mr. Dorsey stated staff has several concerns regarding the OTSD area. The OSTD
sewer assets are on private property and there do not appear to be express grants of
easements. He also stated concerns regarding Camp McDonald Road sewers discharge
path which is through the City of Prospect Heights to the MWRDGC interceptor outfall on
Committee of the Whole Page 2 of 3 04/12/16
Committee of the Whole Meeting - June 14, 2016 Page 5 of 71
Willow Road. Presently, staff does not have any information regarding the condition of
this pipe; however, a field survey revealed that many manholes are inaccessible. He
provided an overview of the potential for disconnecting the area from OSTD and
connecting it to nearby Village -owned systems.
He stated staff will begin the process of proactively obtaining necessary easements for
facilities, initiate the process of invoicing properties, and having further discussions with
Prospect Heights regarding maintenance and improvements planned for the Camp
McDonald Road and Rand Road service area sewers discharge path through the city.
General comments from Village Board members included the following items:
• There was a discussion regarding the dissolution of the Sanitary District and how
the process was communicated to the impacted municipalities.
• There were questions regarding specific properties and the accuracy of the
Sanitary District's records.
• There was a discussion regarding money remaining in the Sanitary District's
funds and how these funds will be distributed to impacted municipalities.
• There were questions regarding the absence of utility easements for the Sanitary
District's infrastructure.
• There were questions regarding immediate maintenance or repair needs and if
these areas experience flooding.

IV. FINANCIAL PLANNING WORKSHOP
1) 2015 Year -End Results
Finance Director Erb stated there were three amendments made to the 2015 budget
and the total budget increased from $116.0 million to $126.4 million. He stated these
amendments relate to carry-over items primarily to capital programs and
extraordinary items. He provided an overview of the telecommunication tax reset
and how sales tax growth exceeded 3.0% projected for 2015. He also highlighted the
unanticipated receipts from income and real estate transfer taxes.
General discussion from the Village Board and Finance Commission included
questions regarding the Village's reserve fund policy, the 20% to 30% range and the
established 25% threshold.
2) 2016 First Quarter Review
Finance Director Erb stated there was one amendment made to -date primarily to
adjust for capital projects funded through the Capital Improvement, TIF, Street,
Flood, Water/Sewer and Capital Funds for a total $3.9 million. Also, revenues were
adjusted based on prior year actuals. He stated current estimates assume no loss of
Local Government Distributive Fund (LGDF) revenue, potential property tax freeze,
or other impacts due to state budget impasse/fiscal condition. He stated no changes
were made to expenditures since there is insufficient history (3 months of data) to
support any adjustments at this time. He stated the General Fund has experienced
growth in reserve level as percent of expenditures and at 12/31/2016 would have a
fund balance is $18.2 million or 35.5%.
Committee of the Whole Page 1 of 3 04/26/16
Committee of the Whole Meeting - June 14, 2016 Page 8 of 71
General comments from the Village Board and Finance Commission included the
following items:
• There were questions regarding the Village's credit rating and if the Village
can reach AAA+ status.
There was discussion regarding the Village's reserve levels and the potential
impact of the state's budget impasse, reduced LGDFs and property tax
freeze legislation.
There were questions regarding pre -funding SAFER grant hiring to prepare
for when the grant funds expire.
3) 2016 Proposed Property Tax Levy
Finance Director Erb stated the annual property tax levy is allocated to pay debt
services, pensions and general operations. He stated the initial 2016 levy included
in the 2017 Forecast Budget was $18.9 million, an increase of 3.27% ($598,825).
Mr. Erb stated the Society of Actuaries published revised mortality tables that reflect
longer life expectancies. The internal assumption previously used for year over year
increase, based on the Annual Required Contribution (ARC), was 7.0% for each
pension fund. The new actuary mortality tables increase the percentage to 19.1 % for
police pension and 23.8% for fire pension. Mr. Erb provided several levy scenarios
regarding how to phase-in these new pension increases. He stated projected future
levies during the phase-in period to be between 4.0% and 4.5%. He also reviewed
factors impacting out years of the levy that include legislative changes to pension
plans, deviations from 7.0% assumed annual increase, and other unanticipated
events.
General comments from the Village Board and Finance Commission included the
following items:
• There was a general discussion regarding the adjusted actuary mortality
tables and pension contributions. It was noted that it has been several years
since the last update; however, the Society of Actuaries will be adjusting the
mortality tables every two years moving forward.
• There were comments regarding pension contributions and the percent which
the pension funds are funded.
4) 2017 Revised Forecast Budget
Finance Director Erb stated the overall growth in revenue is projected at 2.9%
($120.4 million), while total village budget for expenditures, excluding capital,
increase 2.1% (112.8 million). He provided an overview of projected General Fund
revenues and expenditures which increase 2.1% ($52.5 million) and 1.9% ($50.9
million) respectively. He stated the 2017 Forecasted Budget assumes no reduction
in state collected revenues.
General comments from the Village Board and Finance Commission included the
following items:
• It was noted the state had recently notified municipalities of a replacement tax
miscalculation which is to be repaid to the state. The impact to the Village is
about $55,000.

Finance Director Erb stated departments have submitted their first drafts for the
Community Improvement Plan (CIP), previously known as the Capital Improvement
Plan. He stated the CIP totals $74.2 million with first-year projects totaling $11.7
million. He provided an overview of CIP spending by department, project category
and funding source. He stated that departments will be reviewing the CIP and
deliver a proposed plan document June 16 to be discussed at the Joint Village Board
and Finance Commission Workshop July 12.
General comments from the Village Board and Finance Commission included the
following items:
• There was discussion regarding several specific projects, Public Safety
Building Space Needs Study, cured -in -place -pipe repairs, and pump stations
at Levee 37.
• There was a discussion regarding the CIP document identifying which
projects are new verse existing and also project priority for the past 5 years.
• There was a question regarding if accelerated replacement programs would
take replacements off cycle and would result in clumped purchases in the
future.
• There was general discussion regarding the motor fuel tax and funds
allocated for road improvements.
• There were questions regarding how the Village may use reserves and
allocating funds for disaster recovery for severe weather and emergency
events
There was general consensus by the Village Board for the Finance Commission to
continue the discussion regarding reviewing options for allocating reserves that exceed
the 25% fund balance threshold for Village initiatives or capital projects.
Louis Goodman, 310 N. School Street asked several questions regarding the Village
budget, the Village's portion of the property tax levy, and the General Fund. There was
also a question regarding available funds for the sidewalk replacement cost share
program.

Item V.: LEVEE 37 STATUS UPDATE
Department: Public Works Department
Information:
At the September 22, 2015 Committee of the Whole meeting, staff and representatives from
Christopher B. Burke Engineering, LTD (CBBEL) presented the final report of the Levee 37 Flood
Study. There were several outcomes of this meeting including specific direction from the Village
Board regarding the following initiatives:
1 . Obtain approval and financial support from the United States Army Corps of Engineers
(USACE) for upgrading pump station capacity.
2. Obtain approval and financial support from the Illinois Department of Natural Resources
(IDNR) for increasing the pump station discharge rate.
3 . Meet with school districts and park district to assess viability of installing portions of
associated stormwater collection system improvements on their respective properties.
4. Evaluate the feasibility of installing stormwater storage on the currently vacant lot(s) near
the intersection of Camp McDonald Road and Des Plaines River Road in lieu of, or
supplemental to, proposed improvements slated for school district or park district properties.
5 . Assess the potential for alternative projects that could reduce structure flooding on
individual properties with low elevation entryways for stormwater inflow.
6. Coordinate and discuss cost-sharing options with the City of Prospect Heights.
The attached memorandum from Mr. Erik Gil, P.E. of CBBEL explains the status of each initiative in
considerable detail.
Generally speaking, substantive progress has been made:
USACE supports increasing the capacity of the pump stations and is presently working with IDNR
to identify existing funds for the work. Additionally, USACE has indicated that they would facilitate
design of pump station improvements.
IDNR has agreed to increase the discharge rate of the pump stations and, as noted, is working with
USACE to identify existing, already allocated funds, which can be utilized to construct requisite
improvements.
Committee of the Whole Meeting - June 14, 2016 Page 12 of 71
USACE and IDNR have indicated that decisions regarding funding availability, and a project design
schedule, could be made this fall.
Community Consolidated School District 21, River Trails School District 26, and the River Trails
Park District staff members did not object to stormwater storage improvements proposed for their
properties provided their existing facilities were not negatively impacted. I would note that express,
formal approval of construction projects on these properties would require legislative action from
the respective boards.
Stormwater detention on the existing vacant lot(s) near Camp McDonald Road and Des Plaines
River Road is feasible in lieu of constructing storage facilities on School District 26 property.
However, the cost of construction could be prohibitive due to property acquisition and soil
remediation costs.
Private property flood -fighting enhancements, in lieu of collection system improvements, appear to
be feasible and cost-effective. Most of the 23 properties with below grade driveways and/or
garages could be protected from the 10 -year recurrence interval storm event by raising the
sidewalk through driveways to forma protective berm. However, these properties would remain at
risk for storm events greater than the 10 -year recurrence interval storm and these types of
improvements would not alleviate street flooding.
More substantial private property improvements, such as abandoning below -grade garages and
filling recessed driveways are also feasible for most properties. However, some homes may not
be able to relocate the garage due to lot constraints. This solution would provide a much higher
level of protection for property owners but almost all of the work would involve improvements on
private property. Furthermore, these improvements would not alleviate street flooding.
Finally, the City of Prospect Heights remains communicative and interested in improving the
performance of storm water collection system tributary to the levee pump stations. However, since
the scope and cost of improvements is vague, conversations regarding cost participation will likely
be more fruitful once the solution set is better defined.
This attached report is a 2016 Strategic Plan action item. Staff will present this document, and
facilitate attendant discussion.
Alternatives:
This status update is for informational purposes only. Village Board action is not required.
Budget Impact:
No budget impact identified at this juncture.

SUBJECT: Next Steps — Levee 37 Study Area
Project: Mount Prospect Levee 37 Drainage Study
Location: West of Des Plaines River, south of Palatine Road, east of Wolf
Road, and north of Euclid Street, Mount Prospect, Cook
County, Illinois
Watershed: Des Plainer River — direct tributary area
Christopher B. Burke Engineering Ltd. (CBBEL) was retained by the Village of Mount
Prospect (Village) to assist with or perform various follow-up tasks following the September
22, 2015 Village Board Committee of the Whole meeting during which a presentation was
made summarizing the recently completed Levee 37 Drainage Study. The primary goals of
these "Next Steps" were to answer the trustee's questions that had been posed during the
September 22 meeting, and to proceed with conversations with the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers (USACOE) regarding upgrading the pump stations.
This memorandum documents the work done as part of the "Next Steps" of the Levee 37
Study Area. The first two sections of this memorandum are a summary review of some of
the key aspects of the 2015 study report, and are provided for reference. The remaining
sections are descriptions of the work performed since the Village Board meeting, and
specifically addresses questions posed by the trustees during the September 2015 meeting.
The Levee 37 Drainage study area is located at the northeast corner of the Village. In
general, the study area is bounded by Palatine Road to the north, Euclid Street to the south,
Des Plaines River to the east, and Wolf Road to the west, with specific flooding concerns
located along the front yards and backyards of the homes along the north -south streets and
the roads adjacent to River Road. The floodplain map of this location is shown on Figure 1.

The northern corporate boundary between the City of Prospect Heights (City) and the
Village at this location is Seminole Lane. The study area is topographically a relatively flat
area with a gentle slope towards the Des Plaines River, drained by the storm sewers that
encompass most of the area. The area north of Seminole Lane is located in the City and
drains either to Levee 37 Pump Station #2 or #3. Most of the flooding problems directly
affecting the homes are related to buildings with below -grade garages. Photograph 1
shows a view of a property with a below grade garage flooded during the April 2013 event.
The study area drains directly to the Des Plaines River, while areas west of the divide drain
into McDonald Creek, which then drains into the Des Plaines River.
The historic patterns that existed prior to development in this area (according to Hydrologic
Investigations Atlas HA -67, Floods in Arlington Heights Quadrangle, Illinois, prepared in
1963, and shown as Figure 2) were of a gently sloping area that drained toward the Des
Plaines River overland, either directly or by first draining into two tributaries.

Therefore, there was a defined unimpeded overland flow route into the Des Plaines River.
Hydraulic modeling determined that prior to the construction of the levee the historic
overland flow rate (generated by the 10 -year interior event) reaching the Des Plaines River
was 240 cubic feet per second (cfs) when the Des Plaines River water level is at its 10 -year
flood level.
The Levee 37 project, including the floodwall, earthen berm, closure structures and the
three (3) pump stations, was constructed in 2011. The remaining portion of the floodwall
that was not constructed in 2011 was completed in 2015 once the Heritage Park Flood
Control Project was completed. The Heritage Park Flood Control Project provides the
compensatory storage volume for the loss of volume due to the levee removing the interior
area from the floodplain. Pump Station #1 drains stormwater exclusively from the Village,
while Pump Station #2 drains areas of both the Village and the City, and Pump Station #3
drains water exclusively from the City. The floodwall now blocks the historic overland flow
path that existed that allowed overland flow to be conveyed east into the Des Plaines River.
The area is drained by gravity when the Des Plaines River is low, and by the pump stations
when the gravity outlets are closed due to the backwater from the Des Plaines River.
During the April 17-18, 2013 storm event, Village and City Staff temporarily blocked the
floodwall gap with Jersey Barriers preventing DPR floodwaters from reaching the interior
areas. The Levee 37 Pump Stations #1 and #2 were functioning during this storm event
along with portable pumps operated by Village Public Works personnel. According to
Village Staff, the Levee 37 Pump Stations did not have sufficient capacity to prevent street
inundation in low areas, yard flooding and overtopping of sidewalks, thus allowing
floodwaters to enter below -grade garages during the April 2013 storm event.
CBBEL performed a stormwater feasibility study on behalf of the Village to evaluate the
Levee 37 improvements and the flooding that occurred in April 2013. Based on the results
of this conceptual feasibility study, CBBEL recommended two improvement projects, one for
each pump station drainage area (Alternatives 3 and 6) that provide the 10 -year level of
protection. The 10 -year level of protection was selected by the Village as the most practical
level of protection that can be provided by this area.
Alternatives 3 and 6 would increase the total pumping rate to 205 cfs, which is lower than
the historic overland flow rate of 240 cfs mentioned above. The difference between the 205
and 240 rates is due to the addition of stormwater storage basins within the two school
properties that provide a reduction in the flowrate reaching the pumping stations, while
maintaining the 10 -year level of protection as the goal. However, these alternatives can be
modified such that the total pumping rate is 240 cfs rate, and reduce the storage volume at
the two school/park district sites to achieve the same 10 -year level of protection. This
refinement would be pursued in subsequent tasks of the project. The opinion of probable

construction cost for Alternatives 3 and 6 are $3.6 million and $2.1 million, respectively,
based on 2015 unit cost estimates. The following is a brief description of the recommended
alternatives for a 10 -year level of protection:
Alternative 3:
• Construct a new pump station adjacent to Levee 37 Pump Station #2 with an
additional pumping capacity of 105 cfs.
• Construct a 11.6 acre-foot stormwater storage basin, located within an existing open
space at Robert Frost Elementary School property.
Alternative 6.
• Construct a new pump station adjacent to Levee 37 Pump Station #1 with an
additional pumping capacity of 40 cfs.
• Construct a 7.0 acre-foot stormwater storage basin, located within an existing open
space at the Indian Grove Elementary School property.
The study was presented to the Village Board on September 22, 2015, and the Board
directed staff as follows -
1 .
ollows:
1. Meet with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACOE) about funding the proposed
pump station improvements.
2. Meet with Illinois Department of Natural Resources — Office of Water Resources
(IDNR-OWR) to discuss permit requirements.
3. Meet with the schools and park district about the possibility to construct storage
basins on their properties.
4. Evaluate the feasibility to provide storage at a vacant lot located at the corner of
Camp McDonald Road and River Road.
5. Evaluate the alternative project of floodproofing the individual properties that would
be protected by the project.
6. Coordinate the project with the City of Prospect Heights, and discuss cost-sharing
options.
The results of completing each of these assignments are described below.
Village and CBBEL met with USACOE staff to discuss the Levee 37 Drainage Study, and a
presentation was made to highlight the key points of the study. Minutes of the meeting can
be found as Attachment 1. The main purpose of the meeting was to discuss the
recommendation to upgrade Pump Stations #1 and #2, and whether there was funding
available for that effort. The conclusions of the meeting and further conversations between
Village and USACOE staff are:
1. USACOE staff has conceptually agreed with the technical conclusions in the CBBEL
report as they relate to the need to upgrade the pump stations.

2. USACOE will only consider the project components related to the pump stations.
The other components will need to be undertaken by the Village.
3. USACOE staff will continue the process of bringing the pump upgrade projects to
upper levels to pursue funding.
4. USACOE did not commit to a schedule, but the earliest the project could get funding
for design is fall of 2016.
Village and CBBEL met with IDNR-OWR staff to discuss the Levee 37 Drainage Study, and
a presentation was made to highlight the key points of the study. Minutes of the meeting
can be found as Attachment 2. The main purpose of the meeting was to discuss permitting
requirements of the recommendation to upgrade the pump stations, and whether there was
funding available for that effort. The conclusions of the meeting and further conversations
between Village and IDNR-OWR staff are -

re:
1. IDNR-OWR staff indicated that they had performed a cursory review of the CBBEL
report, and were of the opinion that the analysis was sound.
2. The establishment of the 240 cfs as the historical overland flow rate was discussed
in more detail during the meeting, and IDNR-OWR staff indicated that, pending a
more detailed review, they were in general agreement with the concept.
3. IDNR-OWR indicated that it was their opinion that no special issues were foreseen
for permitting the pump station upgrade up to 240 cfs.
4. IDNR-OWR had participated in funding the Levee 37 project on a 65/35 cost share
basis with the USACOE (IDNR-OWR also represented the local share). IDNR-OWR
has not traditionally participated in funding interior drainage improvements, so would
not participate in funding any improvements outside the pump station upgrades.
5. IDNR-OWR has $1.5 million allocated for funding Upper Des Plaines River Phase 1
projects, of which Levee 37 is one. While these monies are not available now due to
state budget deliberations, it could possibly be allocated for this project if the
USACOE agrees.
Village and CBBEL met with staff from Community Consolidated District 21 and River Trails
Park District staff to discuss the Levee 37 Drainage Study, and a presentation was made to
highlight the key points of the study. Minutes of the meeting can be found as Attachment
3. The main purpose of the meeting was to discuss the proposed stormwater storage basin
improvements located within their property. This basin is proposed to hold 11.8 acre-foot
and help lessen the flows reaching the Pump Station #2 as shown in Figure 3.

re:
1. The school district stated that potential future school expansion plans would have
two of the existing three wings being expanded northward. The school would need to
expand their existing detention storage basin to provide the required additional
detention storage. Village staff stated that the school's detention storage could be
provided in the Village's proposed basin pending further analysis.
2. The school district mentioned that the proposed location would impact the existing
path that students walk towards the school and also would impact an existing
detention basin.
3. The RTPD uses the open area adjacent to the school for soccer fields.
4. The school district stated that staff is willing to work with the Village but the final
approval would come from their Board.
CBBEL analyzed the benefits of providing stormwater storage in the vacant lot at the
southwest corner of Camp McDonald Rd and River Rd. Currently, the vacant area consists
of two parcels totaling 0.73 acres in area. The vacant lot parcels are located at the divide
between the areas that drain to Levee 37 Pump Stations #1 and #2. This means that it
could theoretically be considered for both. However, its relative location with respect to
Pump Station #2 (farther away from flooding areas) is less ideal than its relative location
with respect to Pump Station #1 (adjacent to South Park Drive where flooding occurs).
Therefore, CBBEL evaluated this vacant lot with respect to benefits it could provide to the
area draining into Pump Station #1.
The vacant lot is bordered by Illinois Route 45, an Illinois Department of Transportation
(IDOT) Road, and Camp McDonald Road, a Cook County Road. Both of these agencies
have setback requirements for the construction of stormwater storage basins adjacent to
their right-of-way. The vacant lot also abuts to residential properties. A proposed grading
plan was developed based on using 4:1 side slopes and the setback requirements from the
right-of-way using IDOT standards. A 15 -foot setback from the residential property lines
was used. To maximize the basin volume and minimize flooding along South Park Drive, a
new, deeper 36 -inch storm sewer is proposed to replace the existing storm sewer on Park
Drive as shown on Figure 5 below. The proposed sewer is approximately 3- to 5 -feet lower
than the existing sewer which allows for a deeper detention basin, resulting in a greater
storage volume. The 36 -inch storm sewer allows stormwater to back up into the proposed
detention basin during large storms and then drain back by gravity through the same pipe
following the storm event. The 36 -inch storm sewer alignment currently crosses through the
side yards of two houses on Park Drive, therefore, an easement will be required. The

hydraulic modeling shows that the proposed detention basin has a normal water level
elevation of 629 and a high water elevation of 637. The proposed detention basin
simulation was analyzed with the proposed Pump Station #1 upgrade proposed in
Alternative 5 (which corresponds to the rate that would be allowed for that pump station
under the 240 cfs scenario). Alternative 5 proposes to increase pumping capacity at Pump
Station #1 by 60 cfs. Initially, a basin with 4:1 side slopes along all 4 sides was evaluated,
which resulted in 1.8 acre-feet of additional storage volume. This volume did not reduce the
10 -year event flood levels below the overtopping sidewalk elevations of the 4 properties
along Park Drive. Therefore, the grading plan was revised to reflect vertical walls along 2
sides of the basin, which gave 2.4 acre-feet. This is the footprint reflected in Figure 5. This
volume did lower the street flood levels below the sidewalks, with one property just clearing
the overtopping point by 0.01 foot.
The 10 -year, 2 -hour critical storm was simulated in XPSWMM to determine the benefit
provided by the vacant lot detention basin. The addition of the detention basin at the vacant
lot reduces the flood elevation 0.7 feet on South Park Drive. The lowest surveyed
overtopping elevation for reverse slope houses along South Park Drive is 636.89, which is
0.01 feet higher than the resulting flood elevation. Therefore, Alternative 5 with the
proposed vacant lot storage would provide the minimum 10 -year flood protection for the
Pump Station #1 Study Area, but it would be a reduced level of protection provided by the
basin at the school/park district property because the basin at the school/park district
provide a larger reduction of street flooding.
Table 1
XPSWMM Results Summary for Vacant Lot Analysis
A concept -level opinion of probably construction cost was prepared for this vacant lot basin
using the same 2015 unit costs used for the prior developed costs for consistency of
comparison. The details of the cost estimate can be found as Attachment 5. The
construction of the project was estimated to be $1.9 million, however, this cost does not
include land acquisition or site remediation. It is understood that the prior site use was a
gas station, and as such, site remediation is a possibility. Since this element alone can vary
significantly it was not included, but it is recommended that if the Village desire to continue
performing due -diligence on this project, that soil investigations be performed to better
define the magnitude and costs.

MEMORANDUM
The Village Board inquired about assessing the costs of the pump station upgrades and
storage basins against implementing individual projects at each of the 23 properties being
protected up to the 10 -year level by the proposed project. Although the meetings'
discussion summarized above suggests that the pump station upgrades could be fully
funded by outside sources, there is no final confirmation yet, and evaluating this alternative
is a prudent analysis should all funding have to rely on the Village. This analysis would also
apply to the scenario where only the pump station upgrades are funded by outside sources,
and the stormwater storage basins are either unfeasible to the respective owners, or the
cost is significantly more than the individual projects. In this latter scenario, where the
pump stations are upgraded but no new stormwater storage is provided, 14 of the 23 homes
would still experience overtopping flooding into the garage for the 10 -year level of
protection. These remaining homes could then have individual projects implemented.
All the affected properties up to the 10 -year storm event have a below -grade garage.
Therefore, raising the driveway was deemed as the least intrusive, most cost-effective
individual project to protect up to the same level of the proposed project. Another option
would be to backfill the driveway up to and elevation above the garage door, and provide
parking on a new above -grade driveway. This latter option was not investigated
individually. Each of the 23 affected properties was visited to assess the design specifics of
providing a floodproofing measure to help protect from water overtopping the driveway from
flooding in the street. In most instances there was a sidewalk crossing the driveway,
however, in a few properties there was no sidewalk. In both scenarios the approach was
the same — raise the driveway (and sidewalk where present) to provide a barrier from water
from the street overtopping into the back -pitched driveway and flooding the garage and
building. The parameters used in terms of slope are depicted in Figure 6 below. A typical
plan view of the improvements is shown on Figure 7, which gives an overview of the limits
of impact. As can be seen, the property owner having the improvement performed on his
property would also need to obtain authorization from the neighbor.

Concept -level opinions of probable construction costs were prepared for each individual
property visited. Surveyed or LI DAR elevations were used to calculate slopes and level -of -
protection. The summary of this analysis is summarized in Attachment 6. The costs
ranged from approximately $17,500 to $32,500, with the average being $22,500. The total
cost of the project when including all 23 properties was estimated to be approximately
$530,000. The alternative assumed that no compensatory storage would be required for
the improvements. There is also an unquantified benefit to implementing the recommended
project when compared to implementing the 23 individual projects. The streets remain
flooded in the individual project scenario which affect access and normal traffic, and water
levels around side yards could be such that seepage into basements could occur.

An alternate option for individual property owners is the complete filling of the driveway to
the garage door. Unlike the driveway/sidewalk option discussed above where much of the
improvements would occur within the parkway, the majority of the cost and activity of filling
the driveway would occur within private property. The ability to construct a garage in the
back of the property would need to be determined for each property, and it is likely that
variances may be needed. An example of an on-going construction of a driveway filing is
shown below in Photograph 2.

MEMORANDUM
The design and construction cost associated with filling the driveway and possibly
constructing a new garage is more significant than raising the driveway/sidewalk. A benefit
of filling the driveway is the water should no longer be able to enter through the garage door
opening since the driveway would slope towards the street under this scenario. The level of
protection provided by this individual project would be higher than raising the sidewalk
option, and it would vary from building to building as window well elevations and first floor
elevations would need to be surveyed to make this determination as to where the water
could enter the structure with the garage door now blocked.
While the costs of raising the driveway/sidewalk were individually determined above, the
level of effort for individually estimating the costs of filling the driveway and constructing a
new garage is significantly higher and would require additional surveying and possibly
consideration of variances. For purposes of this analysis, an approximate average cost of
$60,000 was used that would include filling the driveway and constructing a new garage in
the back. If all 23 properties affected during the 10 -year storm event were improved using
this method, then the total cost would be approximately $1.4 million.
Village staff also met with City staff regarding the project and benefits to the City. The City
acknowledged the flooding problems that occur north of Seminole Lane, and would
welcome the reduction in street flooding that additional pumping would produce. At this
point, the cost-sharing of any improvements would need to be discussed at a later date
when the project and outside funding is more clearly defined, and the specific benefits to the
City can be better defined.

Village and CBBEL staff met with:
• USACOE
• IDNR-OWR
• School District 21
• School District 26
• River Trails Park District
During the meetings, a thorough overview of the study was presented, and specifics
pertaining to each stakeholder were discussed individually. The project recommendations
in the 2015 Levee 37 Drainage Study were generally well received by the original planning
and funding agencies (USACOE and IDNR-OWR), and the possibility of funding the pump
stations upgrades entirely through the USACOE and IDNR-OWR was discussed and
remains an ongoing goal.
The respective owners of the two school/park district sites were receptive of the stormwater
storage basins and provided some feedback as to specific elements that the Village should
include in future planning efforts. However, it was stated that the school boards will have
the final determination of this component of the project.
Finally, the 23 properties affected during the 10 -year event were visited and further
assessed in terms of floodproofing the building by either elevating the sidewalk/driveway, or
filling the driveway completely. Concept -level costs were determined for each property for
the "raising" project, but only an order -of -magnitude cost was determined for the "filling"
project because of the more significant level of effort involved. The "filling" project could be
refined in the future if the Village Board directs staff to proceed with this option.
Table 3 below summarizes the various combinations that were evaluated.

1. Estimated costs are based on early 2015 construction costs.
2. The individual projects cost assumes that no compensatory storage would be required. If it is
required, the impact and cost would be more.
3. The cost for the vacant lot does not include land acquisition or site remediation due to its prior
use as a gasoline station. These costs could be significant.
An important consideration that was not discussed above is the presence of regulatory
floodplain. The construction of the 23 individual projects involve fill in the floodplain, with
the "raising" project affecting less volume than the "filling" project. Because the individual
projects should be considered floodproofing projects, it could be argued that the

requirement of compensatory storage for the fill does not apply. This issue would need to
be further discussed with MWRDGC and IDNR-OWR (as the agency with oversight into the
community's NFIP program). However, it is understood that the Levee 37 project would
culminate in a Letter of Map Revision (LOMB), and would remove the interior area from the
floodplain. Therefore, at that point, once the LOMB is issued by FEMA, there is no
compensatory storage required for the individual projects. The closure of Levee 37
occurred recently as the "gap" in the wall was closed, and this component is necessary to
submit the proper documentation to FEMA to process the LOMB. Therefore, the LOMB
request has not begun yet. During the meeting with the USACOE, the LOMB was
discussed, and Village staff indicated that all stakeholders will need to continue to pursue
the completion of this important part of the Levee 37 project.
Based on the above, CBBEL recommends the following:
• The Village should continue discussions with the USACOE to design and fund the
pump station improvements.
• The Village should coordinate the USACOE conversations with IDNR-OWR to
confirm that the permit requirements are consistent with how the project has been
modeled in the CBBEL 2015 study.
• The Village should continue conversations with the park and school districts to
determine the feasibility of providing storage at those locations.
• The Village should investigate further the use of the vacant lots at the southwest
corner of River Road and Camp McDonald Road. Based on the past use of this lot,
soil contamination is possible and may require special remediation measures.
Should the individual properties be selected by the Village, there are other measures that
property owners can take to floodproof their properties. These tips have been included
under Attachment 7.

We met at the Mount Prospect Public Works Building at 1:00 pm on December 7, 2015.
The purpose of the meeting was to provide the COE staff the conclusions from the CBBEL
Levee 37 Interior Drainage study recently completed for the Village of Mount Prospect.
Christopher stated that we had no issue with the original COE's interior drainage study done
in 1997. Since that time, the Chicagoland area is experiencing higher intensity short duration
storms that are causing flooding issues throughout the area. ISWS Bulletin 70 included data
through the mid- 1980's, a current analysis using additional rainfall data indicates that the
100 -year storm event could be 1 inch higher than what ISWS Bulletin 70 states. Our study
evaluated the interior drainage system using tools that were not available when the COE
performed the 1997 design analysis. Everyone is in agreement that the Levee 37 project has
provided outstanding overbank flooding reduction benefits to the study area.
Christopher gave a power point presentation summarizing the study as it related to the
existing Levee 37 pumping stations. The Des Plaines River (DPR) 10 -year flood elevation
would not have inundated the study area prior to the Levee 37 construction. Therefore, we
determined that the 10 -year critical duration overland flow rate from the study area assuming
a DPR 10 -year tailwater is 240 cfs. It is CBBEL's opinion that the Levee 37 pump stations
are allowed to discharge up to 240 cfs. One of the study's proposal is to add 120 cfs capacity

to PS #2 which has an existing capacity of 25.5 cfs giving a total of capacity 145.5 cfs. For
PS #1, 60 cfs would be added to the existing 17 cfs capacity for a total capacity of 77 cfs. PS
#3 existing capacity of 17 cfs would not be increased.
Sean asked Jeff Z. if the COE was still performing an evaluation to see if they could assist in
the funding of the pump station improvements. Jeff Z. stated that he spoke to Rick Gosch,
IDNR-OWR about the Village's request, and Jeff stated that Rick was in general agreement
to make necessary modifications so that Levee 37 meets the design intent. Jeff
recommended that the Village contact Rick Gosch, and Sean responded that a meeting with
IDNR-OWR was next on their schedule. Jeff Z. said that he has had internal discussions
since he came back from his temporary assignment in Washington, DC. These discussions
have indicated that there might be possibilities that the COE can participate under the current
authorization, for example, using the "new data" and climate change argument. Christopher
agreed that this approach was plausible. Jeff Z. is gathering COE staff to meet in the near
future to discuss further. Roy Deda — Deputy for Project Management will also be involved.
Jeff Z. stated that the project's Benefit -Cost ratio is above 1.0 which means that appropriate
additional project components can be funded under the current authorization. They are also
evaluating WRDA 2014 to see if that can assist. Another project component, Van Patton
Woods reservoir is being terminated because the land owner; LCFPD is against the project.
Therefore, the funds allocated to the Van Patton Woods Project have been freed up. Jeff Z.
personally is in favor of increasing the pump capacity. One route is a "Design Deficiency"
which involves a complete study and approval at least through the Division level. This
process can take at least 1 year. Christopher felt this is not the route to go down and Jeff Z.
agreed.
Sean asked if the Village should make a formal request. Jeff Z. that at this time it is not
needed. He would let the Village know if they need to meet with Colonel Drew or make a
formal request. Jeff Z. stated that they will also to consult and coordinate with IDNR-OWR.
Jeff Z. will be in contact with the Village to update as necessary.
A discussion on the FEMA LOMB request followed. Joel stated that they are currently going
through the COE process of certifying the Levee 37 project. There is one component of the
Levee 37 project that needs to be completed. The COE has hired a contractor (SYTE) to
perform the work, which involves closing Milwaukee Road for a period of 7-10 days. The
Levee 37 certification process is scheduled to be completed during the summer of 2016. At
that time they plan on meeting with FEMA Region V staff to discuss the LOMB process
including if FEMA is going to require a Physical Map Revision.

• The COE will continue to internally investigate the "best approach" to proceed with the
Village's recommendations for the pump station upgrades. This process may take
several months to formalize into a project component with funding.
• The COE will provide CBBEL with the latest interior drainage analysis tha the COE
performed as part of the final Levee 37 design. This will help establish a comparison
between the COE and CBBEL analysis.
• The Village will contact Rick Gosch, IDNR-OWR to update him on the study and intent
of the pump station upgrades, and discuss [permitting requirements.
• CBBEL will provide the COE with any technical data from the Village's study, as
irequested.

A conference call with a "GoToMeeting" connection was held at 11:00 am on January 5, 2016.
The purpose of the conference call was to present and discuss the proposed modifications to
the Levee 37 Pump Stations #1 & #2 (Attached is the agenda).
Sean had the participants introduce themselves. Sean said that during the April 2013 storm
event the Levee 37 pump stations could not keep up with the interior drainage. The Village
supplemented the pump capacity with the use of portable pumps, but interior flooding of
streets and homes still occurred.
Sean stated that a meeting was held with U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE) staff including
Jeffrey Zuercher prior to the holidays. The ACOE staff stated that they support the request
for the increase in interior drainage pump capacity. Jeff Z. stated he would be meeting with
senior ACOE staff to discuss potential approaches that they could use to participate in the
funding of the proposed pump station capacity increase. At this meeting, Jeff Z.
recommended that Mount Prospect contact IDNR-OWR.
Christopher gave a power point presentation summarizing the study as it related to the
existing Levee 37 pumping stations. It was observed that the Des Plaines River (DPR) 10 -
year flood elevation would not have inundated the study area due to overbank flooding prior
to the Levee 37 construction. Therefore, the study determined that the 10 -year critical
duration overland flow rate from the study area assuming a DPR 10 -year tailwater is 240 cfs.
Based on evaluating historical drainage patterns, it was concluded that this 10 -year flow of
240 cfs was the overland flow capacity that the interior area could discharge into the DPR
prior to the Levee 37 construction. Because of this pre -Levee 37 condition, the study

MEETING MINUTES
concluded that the Levee 37 pump stations should be allowed to discharge up to 240 cfs.
Since the existing pumping capacity of the three (3) pump stations is 60 cfs, the CBBEL study
recommended adding additional pumping capacity to bring the total pumping rate to 240 cfs.
The alternatives would add 120 cfs capacity to PS #2 which has an existing capacity of 25.5
cfs giving a total of capacity 145.5 cfs. For PS #1, 60 cfs would be added to the existing 17
cfs capacity for a total capacity of 77 cfs. PS #3 existing capacity of 17 cfs would not be
increased. The conceptual opinion of probable cost for the PS #1 & #2 enhancements is
$2.8M.
Rick stated that IDNR-OWR could potentially participate in the proposed pump station
modification if the ACOE states they made a "design deficiencies". If the ACOE says they
did not make a "design deficiencies", IDNR-OWR would need to review the residential
damage caused by the interior drainage flooding to determine if it exceeds the cost of the
project. Rick mentioned Alternatives 3 and 6 from the study, which include storm sewer
improvements and creation of storage basins. Rick stated that traditionally IDNR has not
participated in interior drainage improvements, so for this project IDNR-OWR would not
participate in funding of any proposed interior storm sewer modifications or the construction
of storage basins.
Rick stated that IDNR-OWR owes the ACOE approximately $1.5M for the UPDPR Phase I
study. This owed funds could potentially be used to help fund the proposed pump station
modifications. The COE/IDNR cost share ratio is 65/35. If the Village orACOE are requesting
cost share beyond these limits or conditions, then funds are currently not available because
there is no State budget or capital bill.
Dan felt that going from an existing pump rate of 60 cfs to a proposed 240 cfs seemed drastic.
Furthermore, during the April 2013 with the additional portable pumps the rate was increased
to about 100 cfs. Dan asked why the Village feels they need 240 cfs since they handle the
April 2013 storm event with portable pumps which had a capacity less than 240 cfs? Sean
stated that the portable pumps were not sufficient to manage the flooding. In addition, Sean
felt that if they had more pump capacity with a larger wet well they potential could have reduce
the amount of street flooding and home flooding.
Sean asked IDNR-OWR thoughts on permitting of the proposed 240 cfs pump discharge.
Rick said that the justification for 240 cfs seems reasonable, he has not evaluated it in more
detail but at this time did not see any issues associated with permitting.
ACTION ITEMS
• Rick will contact Jeff Z. to determine the status of the ACOE evaluation, and email him
stating that IDNR has $1.5M owed to the ACOE on UPDPR Phase I projects.
• Sean would like to have preliminary design completed this year, and will follow up with
the ACOE later this month on this.

We met at the Mount Prospect Public Works Building at 9:30 am. The purpose of the
meeting was to discuss the potential stormwater storage basin to be constructed in Aspen
Trails Park located south of Robert Frost Elementary school.
Sean provided introductions of his staff and CBBEL staff. He said that street and home
flooding occurred during the April 2013 storm event because the Levee 37 pumps did not
have adequate capacity. During that event, Public Works staff supplemented the Levee 37
pumps with portable pumps. The Village hired Christopher B. Burke Engineering, Ltd.
(CBBEL) to perform a study to evaluate the current drainage situation and recommend
improvements. CBBEL presented the study findings to the Village Board.
Chris went through a PowerPoint presentation that discussed the original Levee 37 project
and the recent study completed by CBBEL for the Village. The original Levee 37 project
developed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE) include a floodwall along the
eastside of River Road and three (3) pump stations to discharge interior drainage during
periods when the Des Plaines River water surface elevation prevents gravity drainage. The
study is recommending upgrades to existing Levee 37 Pump Stations #1 & #2 to increase
the capacity by 180 cfs from 42.5 cfs to 222.5. This additional pump capacity will reduce
interior flooding of streets and homes when the Des Plaines River is at a level where the
gravity storm sewers are restricted.
In addition to the pump station improvements, two (2) stormwater basins are proposed to
increase the level of protection. An 11.8 acre-foot stormwater basin associated with Pump
Station #2 would be located within Aspen Trails Park which is located south of Robert Frost

Elementary School. Chris showed a conceptual plan view of the basin that would be 6 -feet
in depth and have a footprint of approximately three (3) acres. The basin will have gentle
side slopes of 4:1 which can be mowed. Chris stressed that the configuration was
conceptual and can be altered based on the desires of the RTPD. The basin would have
flow entering from the adjacent storm sewer and will discharge by gravity through another
existing storm sewer. Underdrains can be incorporated to allow drainage of the basin
bottom. The dewatering of the basin after the storm had ended will vary 24 to 48 hours.
Chris stated that generally the basin is not intended to accept stormwater until the upgraded
pump capacity is exceeded which is designed to provide a 10 -year level of protection. Chris
stated that we have worked on other stormwater basins constructed within existing parks
including the Village of Clarendon Hills, Village of Roselle, Village of Bensenville and Village
of Tinley Park.
Bret stated that they are proceeding with a Master Plan for all their park sites and they
might want to eliminate the existing tennis courts. Tom stated that they may be interested
in lowering the entire park including the playground and tennis courts areas. They stated
that the northeast portion of park including the parking lot can become inundated during
rainfall events. They asked where the stormwater would go if the basin capacity was
exceeded. Chris stated that it would flow onto the street and generally flows eastward
towards River Road. The street currently functions as the overflow path when the storm
sewer capacity is exceeded.
The other stormwater basin would be located adjacent to the Indian Grove Elementary
School (River Trails School District #26). This basin would have a depth of 8' and have a
storage capacity of 7 acre-feet. This basin has one (1) storm sewer that would function as
both a gravity inflow and gravity outflow. Chris showed the conceptually stormwater basin
footprint. Tom mentioned that location would impact the existing path that students walk
towards the school and also would impact an existing detention basin. The RTPD uses the
open area adjacent to the school for soccer fields. There was also concern by parents
about potential pollutants left at the bottom of the basins after dewatering.
Sean stated that the Village has had positive conversations with the COE and the Illinois
Department of Water Resources — office of Water Resources (IDNR-OWR) concerning the
proposed pump station upgrade.
Glen asked about the feasibility of vault storage. Chris stated that cost of vault storage is
approximately 10 times that of excavated storage.
Bret asked Sean about the project timing. Sean state that all the projects are independent
of each other. The COE is currently reviewing the Village's request for the pump station
capacity increase. Bret stated that the Village Board would control the timing but he feels
the earliest construction start would be 2018.

Board.
Sean stated that the next steps is a meeting with the River Trails School District #26 which
will be held today, and to work with RTPD and SD#26 as needed to further evaluate the
basins.
Bret stated that they are not against the proposed stormwater basin as long as there
facilities are not negatively impacted. Their board would have to make the final decision.
The meeting adjourned.
ACTION ITEMS

detention basin. The RTPD uses the open area adjacent to the school for soccer fields.
Steve stated that they plan on replacing the playground equipment located north of the
school this summer. Steve asked if the basin would cause flooding within the school
property. Chris stated that diverted stormwater would be confined to the basin and overflow
would go down the street which occurs now.
Dane stated that potential future school expansion plans would have two (2) of the existing
three (3) wings being expanded northward. The school would need to expand their existing
detention storage basin to provide the required additional detention storage. Could the
school's detention storage be provided in the Village's basin? Sean state that could be
potentially accomplished. Ron asked if the Kensington Avenue RTSD #26 Administration
building property located south of the Indian Grove Elementary School site was evaluated.
Chris stated that was located in the McDonald Creek watershed and therefore would not
provide the needed benefits.

➢ Clean gutters and install gutter covers to prevent clogging.
➢ Redefine and clear swales throughout yard to allow an appropriate drainage way for
storm water runoff.
➢ Raise the low entry elevation at which storm water can enter your home by berming
around basement doorways or windows. A pump may be required to drain water
away from inside the berm.
➢ Verify existing sump pump and outlet pipe have sufficient capacity for discharging
during intense storm events.
➢ Provide a relief outlet for the sump pump outside of the house that is a safe distance
from the foundation in case of surcharge, frozen outlet pipe, or other blockage.
➢ Install a backup source of power for sump pump in case of electrical power failure.
➢ Extend downspouts away from the foundation 5-10 feet.
➢ Repair foundation cracks throughout basement to prevent seepage.
➢ Raise the low -entry elevation of window wells and/or install drains in the window
wells and connect them to the sump pump system.
➢ Install glass block windows in place of basement windows (except escape window)
to prevent water inflow or infiltration.
➢ If a storm sewer structure is adjacent to the lot, an underdrain system could be
installed to collect excess runoff, any remaining seepage or any infiltration resulting
from hydrostatic pressure.
➢ For homes with a reverse -slope driveway, raise the sidewalk elevation to reduce the
risk of standing water in the street draining down the driveway and into the garage.
➢ To further reduce the risk of flooding for homes with reverse slope driveways, it may
be necessary to convert the lower level garage into a basement and completely fill in
the reverse -slope driveway.
The recommendations provided above may not eliminate flooding or flood damage within
the residence; however, if installed correctly they should effectively reduce the risk of
flooding. It is should also be noted that any of the recommendations may be implemented
Committee of the Whole Meeting - June 14, 2016 Page 55 of 71
individually, however, many suggestions may be used in conjunction with one another to
provide a greater impact in helping to reduce the risk of future flood damage.

Item VI.: SIDEWALK PROGRAMS REPORT
Department: Public Works Department
Information:
Background
The Village of Mount Prospect maintains almost 300 linear miles of sidewalk.
These walks are installed in public rights-of-way owned and/or maintained by the
Village. Most pedestrian facilities were originally constructed as part of real estate
development projects and became the Village's responsibility when the projects
were accepted by the Village Board.
For reference, a map of all sidewalks within the Village corporate limits is enclosed
as Attachment A. This map denotes Village -owned walks, privately -owned walks, as
well as walks owned by other governmental agencies such as the Illinois Department
of Transportation.
It is the intent of staff to maintain and construct all pedestrian facilities in a manner
that provides barrier free access to end users throughout the Village. Secondary
goals include compliance with applicable state and federal legislation as well as
limitation of liability from personal injury complaints.
The goal of this memorandum is to explain the scope of the Village's sidewalk
improvement programs including an examination of state and federal regulations,
and identification, at a conceptual level, of the requisite compliance costs.
Current Sidewalk Programs
The Village currently implements sidewalk improvements through the following
programs:
Shared Cost Sidewalk Program
This program provides sidewalk improvements based on participation from the
adjacent residents or businesses. Generally, the sidewalks to be replaced are
identified by the adjacent property owner who then participates in the cost of the
sidewalk replacement. This program is cost effective since the Village is paying only
approximately 50% of the total cost of the replacement. However, since the property
owners are selecting the walks to be replaced, these costs may not be going
towards necessary maintenance, limitation of liability, or to address regulatory
compliance issues.
Committee of the Whole Meeting - June 14, 2016 Page 57 of 71
The following is a summary of the amount spent under this program for the past
three years.
2015 - $68,423
2014 - $58,311
2013 - $69,749
Sidewalk Maintenance Program
This program consists of Village crews responding to trip hazard complaints. As
complaints are received, Public Works crews are mobilized to grind the existing
sidewalks or install asphalt ramps to eliminate potential trip hazards. This program
addresses hazardous defects but may not correct all defects or regulatory
compliance issues at the site.
The volume of hazardous sidewalk complaints is significant and consistent. The
table below lists complaints received during the past three years. All of these
complaints were initially remediated with ramping or grinding.
This program is reactive and intended to mitigate an immediate hazard. Permanent
repairs (replacement of the sidewalk) are typically delayed until the adjacent street is
resurfaced or the property owner elects to participate in the Shared Cost Sidewalk
Program.
New Sidewalk Program
This program is utilized to add sidewalk in areas where none currently exist and to fill
gaps in the existing sidewalk system. Generally, this program requires construction
documents be prepared for new sidewalk construction work. These plans are
typically prepared by in-house staff and are publicly bid to local contractors. Since
this program is utilized to expand the existing sidewalks, it does nothing to address
existing maintenance or regulatory compliance issues.
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program
The Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program is a flexible program
that provides communities with resources to address a wide range of community
needs including the construction and repair of sidewalks. Funding for this program is
provided by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development
(HUD).
This program consists of the design and construction of sidewalk improvements in
designated geographic areas that satisfy community profiles established by HUD.
These areas are graphically depicted in Attachment B.
Under this program, staff identifies sections of sidewalk that require replacement or
improvement. Work locations can be based on the condition of the walk or
Committee of the Whole Meeting - June 14, 2016 Page 58 of 71
regulatory compliance issues. Funds can also be used to construct new sidewalks.
CDBG grants are applied for and awarded annually. Grant proceeds can only be
utilized in defined geographic areas and for the express purposes stated in the grant
award (i.e. sidewalk improvements).
In 2016, the Village received a $200,000 CDBG grant for sidewalk improvements.
These funds will be utilized to improve sidewalks in the geographic area bounded by
Golf Road, Route 83, Dempster Street, and Busse Road. This project is a
continuation of sidewalk improvements initiated in this area last year (2015).
The following is a list of the expenditures on this program over the past three years.
2015 - $197,217 (Remove and Replace)
2014 - $51,092 (New sidewalk on Kensington Rd.)
2013 - $38,199 (New sidewalk on Kensington Rd.)
Street Resurfacing Program
As part of the Street Resurfacing Program, existing sidewalks adjacent to street
segments slated for resurfacing are evaluated for maintenance and regulatory
compliance issues. The field identification of these issues and design of sidewalk
replacement is performed with in-house staff.
Sidewalks that are identified as deficient for either condition or regulatory
compliance are replaced. This program is effective at eliminating hazards and
defects as well as remediating regulatory compliance deficiencies.
For many years, the scope of sidewalk repairs included in the street resurfacing
program has been limited to correcting regulatory compliance issues at intersection
ramps and correcting significant maintenance defects such as vertical offsets
exceeding % of an inch.
In 2015, the scope of work was expanded to include all sidewalks in the right-of-way
and encompass all maintenance or regulatory compliance defects including
improvements required by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the Illinois
Accessibility Code (IAC), and the Public Right -of -Way Accessibility Guidelines
(PROWAG). Additional details about these state and federal requirements can be
found in Attachment C.
Notably, the ADA requires all public agencies with sidewalk systems to implement a
plan to transition all public sidewalks into full compliance.
Poignant among ADA standards are limitations on the running slopes and cross
slopes of sidewalks. The running slope cannot exceed 5% and the cross slope
cannot exceed 2%. Vertical offsets are limited to Y2 an inch. Application of these
standards, along with the expanded scope of maintenance defect repairs,
significantly increased the volume of sidewalk replaced as part of the 2015 street
resurfacing program.
During the 2014 and 2013 programs, only intersection ADA non-compliance
improvements and defect repairs were constructed.
• 2015 - $853,536 (9.8 Miles Resurfaced) _ $87,095 / mile of
resurfacing
• 2014 - $1,038,000 (18.9 Miles Resurfaced) _ $54,920/ mile of
Committee of the Whole Meeting - June 14, 2016 Page 59 of 71
resurfacing
• 2013 — $257,000 (7.5 Miles Resurfaced) = $34,267/mile of
resurfacing
Summary of Sidewalk Needs
Staff estimates that there are approximately 5.8 million square feet of existing
Village -owned sidewalk throughout the Village. Much of this sidewalk was
constructed prior to 1968 and predates regulatory accessibility codes.
Staff also estimates that approximately 40% of this sidewalk (2.3 million square
feet) will need to be replaced due to defects or regulatory compliance issues. This
estimate is based on the incidence rate experienced during the 2015 street
resurfacing program sidewalk pilot project.
Failed and non-compliant sidewalk will be identified and repaired over the course of
a 20 -year time frame. This schedule is intended to be commensurate with the street
resurfacing program.
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires all communities to develop and
implement a transition plan that will bring all its pedestrian facilities, including public
sidewalks, into compliance with the law. Staff proposes to transition Village -owned
sidewalk to ADA compliance over the course of 20 years by incorporating requisite
pedestrian facility improvements into the street resurfacing program.
In addition, staff estimates that approximately 238,360 square feet of new sidewalk
is needed to complete sidewalk systems or fill-in sidewalk gaps at various locations
throughout the Village.
Projected Costs Required to meet Village Goals
Based on the sidewalk areas presented above, staff has developed cost estimates
for the upgrade of the sidewalk facilities throughout the Village. These costs are
listed in the table below. They are based on the following assumptions:
• Approximately 40% of sidewalk will require replacement due to
maintenance or regulatory compliance issues (ADA);
• Costs listed are in 2016 dollars.
Potentially, some of this expense can be offset by utilizing CDBG funding to
improve sidewalks in eligible areas.
In 2015 and again in 2016, the Village received $200,000 in CDBG grants for
sidewalk improvements. Staff anticipates that approximately 266,000 square feet of
sidewalk will need to be replaced in CDBG eligible areas. CDBG funding could
Committee of the Whole Meeting - June 14, 2016 Page 60 of 71
reduce the cost for sidewalk repairs by approximately $1,369,900 (266,000 SF x
$5.15/SF = $1,369,900).
Additionally, staff estimates a need for approximately 26,045 square feet of new
sidewalk construction within CDBG eligible areas. Funding this work with grants
could further reduce the cost burden by approximately $302,122 (26,045 SF x
$11.60/S F = $302,122).
Staff continually seeks oppurtunities to utilize grant funding or other sources of
financial assistance to facilitate sidewalk repairs and improvements. Routinely,
inquiries are made to access funding via the Illinois Transportation Enhancement
Program (ITEP), Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP), Safe Routes to
School Program, and the Congestion Mitigation / Air Quality Program (CMAQ).
However, these programs are highly competitive and are not usually awarded for
sidewalk maintenance work.
Conclusions
Modification of Street Resurfacing Program. Staff has modified the Street
Resurfacing Program to include all sidewalks adjacent to the street segments slated
for resurfacing. These sidewalks will be improved as necessary at the same time
curb replacement, driveway apron replacement, and other concrete flatwork is
performed.
Necessary improvements will include the repair of defects as well as sidewalk
replacement necessary to comply with state and federal regulations. The
anticipated activity level is 115,000 square feet per year and is intended to
remediate a 40% sidewalk failure rate over the course of 20 years.
Modification of Shared Cost Sidewalk Program. Staff proposes to modify the
Shared Cost Sidewalk Program by utilizing unspent, annually budgeted, shared cost
funds to permanently replace sidewalks that have been ramped (with asphalt) or
excessively ground in order to remediate an imminent hazard. Typically, some of
the funds budgeted for the Shared Cost Sidewalk Program are unspent because
they are not matched by offsetting revenues from program participants:
Year Budget Amount Expenditures Balance
(Unspent)
$85,000
69,749
$15,251
2014 $85,000
$58,311
$26,689
2015 $86,700
$68,423
$18,277
It is the opinion of staff that utilizing already budgeted, but unspent, funds to
facilitate high priority maintenance repairs will more effectively reduce liability while
improving neighborhood aesthetics.
Creation of a Motor Fuel Tax Sidewalk Improvement Program. Repair of
existing sidewalk systems are an eligible expense for Motor Fuel Tax proceeds. In
contrast to street resurfacing work, sidewalk repairs are considered a maintenance
activity and do not require IDOT pre -approval. Consequently, sidewalk repairs can
be funded by MFT monies and procured utilizing existing purchasing agreements
Committee of the Whole Meeting - June 14, 2016 Page 61 of 71
such as the Municipal Partnering Initiative concrete flatwork joint bid. Staff
recommends creation of sidewalk improvement expenditure account utilizing the
Motor Fuel Tax Fund as a revenue source.
Alternatives:
1. Endorsement of staff recommendations to modify sidewalk maintenance and
improvement programs.
2. Discretion of the Village Board.

State and Federal Public Sidewalk Requirements
The Architectural Barriers Act (42 U.S.C. 4151 et seq.) (1968) - This act requires certain facilities
financed with federal funds to be accessible to individuals with disabilities. The Architectural
Barriers Act covers facilities financed in whole or part by a federal grant or loan where the
federal agency that provides the grant or loan is authorized to issue standards for the design,
construction, or alteration of the facilities. hl -1-1 `- YhNA

Illinois Accessibility Code (IAC) (1988) — State legislation which is intended to implement
the Environmental Barriers Act (EBA) [410 ILCS 25] as amended to date, and to replace the
former version of the Code (71 III. Adm. Code 400) effective May 1, 1988. This Code is intended
to ensure that the built environment, including all spaces and elements of all applicable
buildings and facilities in the State of Illinois is so designed, constructed, and/or altered to
assure the safety and welfare of all members of society and to be readily accessible to, and
usable by, environmentally limited persons. This Code is also intended to resolve areas of
difference between the federal accessibility standards, Americans with Disabilities Act
Accessibility Guidelines (ADAAG), which are applicable to buildings and facilities covered by the
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), and the Illinois accessibility standards, IAC, which are
applicable to buildings and facilities in the State of Illinois covered by the EBA. The drafters of
this Code compared and adopted the stricter of State or federal accessible design standards.

Proposed Accessibility Guidelines for Pedestrian Facilities in the Public Right -of -Way
(PROWAG) - These guidelines apply to pedestrian facilities in the public right-of-way. The
proposed guidelines define the public right-of-way to mean "public land or property, usually in
interconnected corridors, that is acquired for or dedicated to transportation purposes". The
proposed guidelines ensure that the following facilities for pedestrian circulation and use
located in the public right-of-way are readily accessible to and usable by pedestrians with
disabilities:
• Sidewalks, pedestrian overpasses and underpasses, and other pedestrian circulation paths,
including requirements for pedestrian access routes, alternate pedestrian access routes when
pedestrian circulation paths are temporarily closed, and protruding objects along or
overhanging pedestrian circulation paths;
• Pedestrian street crossings, medians, and pedestrian refuge islands, including requirements
for curb ramps or blended transitions, and detectable warning surfaces;

Item VII.: STATE OF THE STREETS / RESURFACING PROGRAM UPDATE
Department: Public Works Department
Information:
The Village of Mount Prospect has approximately 136 miles of streets and alleys
that are maintained by the Public Works Department. The engineering staff has the
responsibility to efficiently and cost-effectively maintain the integrity of the Village's
streets. Our ability to continue cost effective maintenance is tied to the budget
available to make the necessary repairs. It is our goal to keep the Village Board
informed about the state of our streets which is the purpose of this update.
History
In 1996, a thorough pavement evaluation report indicated that our streets had fallen
into a state of disrepair. The report was based on the structural testing of the
streets and the report indicated that there was a backlog of 33 miles of streets
requiring resurfacing and 12 miles of streets requiring full reconstruction.
Subsequently the Village Board approved a 10 -year accelerated paving program
starting in 1997. The program's goals were:
1. Eliminate the reconstruction streets backlog in the first 5 years.
2. Eliminate the resurfacing streets backlog in the second 5 years
3. Following that 10 -year period all streets would be resurfaced on an average
20 -year basis, or 1/20 (5%) of the streets would be resurfaced each year to
prevent pavements from slipping into the reconstruction category. In order
to do that, funding levels would be needed to facilitate resurfacing of 6.8
miles of streets each year. Typical pavement design assumes a 15 — 18
year life. We strive for a 20 year life in order to extend our budget knowing
that we may see more pavement failures such as cracking and potholes.
Accomplishments / Deficits Since 1996
During the first 5 years of the accelerated paving program (1997 — 2001), we were
able to eliminate the reconstruction backlog. Since then, no streets have fallen into
the reconstruction category. For the next 3 years (2002 — 2004) funding levels were

such that we were able to reduce, but not eliminate, the resurfacing backlog.
Starting in 2005, the funding levels decreased and for several years we fell short of
the targeted mileage. This ultimately created a backlog of 10.5 miles. In 2014, the
Village Board provided additional funding that allowed us to erase this backlog.
During the past three (3) years, 35.2 miles of streets (26% of total street inventory)
have been resurfaced.

• No street needs reconstruction.
• We are not experiencing any failures of streets that were reconstructed
since 1997.
• Most streets are aging according to an average 20 -year life.
• As can be expected, Collector streets are aging at a rate slightly faster
than an average 20 -year life.
Pavement Management
We assume a 20 -year pavement surface life for our streets. While this is
somewhat higher than the industry standard of 12-15 years, we can, when
needed, stretch the pavement surface life through our Grind & Patch program.
An assumed 20 -year pavement surface life requires that we resurface 5% of our
streets each year.
We perform a "snapshot" evaluation every 5 years. Currently this is done via a
Visual Stress Evaluation with the results complied in software known as
MicroPAVER. This evaluation is currently performed by an outside consultant.
The 5 -year Micro PAVER evaluation is stored in the pavement database. The
pavement database is updated via staff each year as streets are resurfaced and
repaired.

Pavement Condition Index
Village streets are rated according to a condition scale based on:
• Scheduled field observations and measurements of pavement distresses
which are entered into the MicroPAVER software management program.
• Projected deterioration due to time since last observation.
• Recent Improvements.
The above items produce a real time Pavement Condition Index (PCI) for each
street segment. The PCI is a numeric indicator based on a scale of 0 to 100 (100
being best condition). This indicator is the main criteria for determining the order in
which streets are repaired and the type of repair that is needed.
State of our Streets - Future
Our goal is to resurface our streets on an assumed 20 -year life basis. That
requires that we resurface 5% of our streets each year. Historically, this has shown
to be a good, sound plan. We are presently on track with this goal.
For the sake of future budgets, and the potential for unusual price increases, we
need to investigate/experiment with replacing only the surface (1.5" to 2.0") on local
streets rather than the traditional 1.5" binder and 1.5" surface replacement.
