IV. 2007 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECT OVERVIEW
Village Engineer Jeff Wulbecker spoke. He provided an overview of the 2007 Street
Resurfacing Program. He stated that there will be approximately five miles of streets
resurfaced this season which will include approximately twenty-five street locations
throughout the community. He said that contractors will perform specific jobs throughout
town whereby the contractors may prepare a street or streets in a specific location and
move on toward preparation of another set of streets in another location prior to
resurfacing. He stated the contracts include traffic calming work that has already been in
the cue for implementation including traffic calming on East Prospect Avenue between
Edward and Mount Prospect Road. He also stated that Linneman Road will have some
lane configuration improvements completed as part of an annexation agreement, whereby
the developer is paying a portion of improvements between Algonquin and Dempster to
make the road consistent from end to end. The developer will let the contract for the
improvements and the Village will reimburse the developer for the expenses outside of
the developers responsibilities. He also stated streetscape improvements are included on
Emerson from Northwest Highway to Central and on Busse from Emerson to Route 83
this construction season.
The Sidewalk Improvement program will take place throughout the community with the
Shared-Cost Program with residents slated at approximately $47.00 dollars per square
and some new sidewalk installation that connects existing gaps throughout he
community. He said that the Village will continue its ADA accessible sidewalks ramp
program retrofitting sidewalks as money is available.
1
The Prospect Meadows Water Main Phase II Replacement Project will continue this year
and will include moving the water main from the rear yard to the front yard and increase
the size from a four inch to an eight inch circumference with new services to the homes in
the Prospect Meadows area. He stated work is continuing on the combined Sewer Repair
Program including spot repairs and cured in place lining.
He said that there are planned traffic signal improvements for pedestrian crossing which
will include a countdown showing the pedestrian when the signal will change. There are
two locations which will be part of a test to determine the value of the improvement for
future implementation at other sites.
Levee 37 Phase I along Palatine Road that would block the water from coming across the
street has been promised by the Army Corps of Engineers for funding and construction
this year. However, this is not the first time this has been promised so it remains to be
seen whether such work will actually commence this year or not. Once Phase I is
completed Phase II of the Levee could be constructed along River Road from Euclid to
Willow which would block the river overflow and the Village be allowed to pump out the
storm sewers from the west side of the wall back into the river.
This information was provided as general information to the Village Board as part of the
Annual Capital Improvement Projects.
V. FLOODPLAIN ORDINANCE MODIFICATIONS
Village Engineer Jeff Wulbecker spoke. He said the Village Board approved an
Ordinance in 1977 to allow residents to purchase flood insurance and revised the
Municipal Code in 2003 due to improved maps of the Des Plaines River. He is requesting
the Village Code be modified to reference specific map dates for flood change impacts in
Wheeling and Prospect Heights. Such additional detail has no impact on Mount Prospect
and he would recommend Village Board approval of the Ordinance modification.
VI. E-PAY OPTIONS
Finance Director David Erb spoke. He highlighted the electronic payment process for
utility bills including the current payment options available that currently include mailing to
a third party, mail directly to the Village, night drop box, or coming to the Village Hall and
paying in person. He stated that the Finance Department recently started accepting credit
cards for payment of such utility bills and the E-Pay option would be another opportunity
for convenience to residents to pay their bill. The residents would be able to view their bill
over the internet prior to payment. He stated previous discussions in March 2005
highlighted some processing issues that have now been resolved. He stated Chase Bank
would retain all the information for bill processing on behalf of the Village where residents
could access histories and schedule payments as cash flow allows. There is a
convenience fee schedule that includes a debit or credit card fee of $2.95 per transaction
and a fee for an e-check of $0.50 per transaction. He stated that the site, when a resident
signs on, would appear seamless and as if it were the Village site itself. He also stated
that payments would include real time payment updates and security issues will be
handled with the bank. This will also allow customers to enter meter readings. It is
expected that a Spanish language option would be available within one year and this
program could be implemented between 90-120 days after Village Board approval.
2
This option also includes a direct debit of the customer account when the bill is due. The
regular bill will still be sent out prior to the electronic payment, but will advise the resident
of the amount to be debited. He stated the overall participation percentage and the
convienience cost would be reflected in the electronic payments in the future and could
be reevaluated at that time.
Consensus of the Village Board was to move forward with the implementation of an E-
Pay option as described by staff.
VII. POLICE IFIRE PENSION ANALYSIS
Finance Director David Erb spoke. He said this information is provided for the Village
Board through an Illinois Municipal League study of all pension systems excluding
Chicago. The study highlights the impact to tax levies and the funded aggregate level or
liability of the pensions including unfunded liabilities and funded ratio of tax levy as a
percent of payroll were used as measurements for the study. As an example, the
unfunded liability for police pensions went from 94.9% funded to 74.1% funded between
the period of 1996 to 2005. This is reflective of the Village Police pension system. The
Fire pension system went from a surplus of 104% funded to 76% funded. He stated the
funding sources include contributions by employees, Village and investments. He said the
significant enhancements by the General Assembly have had a significant impact on the
pension funding level and these enhancements are immediately available upon approval
by the General Assembly without modifications to the percentage of funding by the
employer or employee. He stated the Police pension levy has increased 28% over the
same period along with the Fire pension levy increasing 33%. While the employee
contribution has increased slightly over the same period, that percentage is dictated by
the State of Illinois and any funding shortfalls become the sole responsibility of the
municipality if investments are inadequate or the additional enhancements impact the
pension funding. He stated the pension enhancements are estimated to have impacted
the Police pension fund 2.2% over the past year and the Fire pension fund 7.1 % over the
past year. The most recent pension enhancement program under consideration is called
the DROP program which would increase the level of pension funding currently from $2.6
million to $3.2 million dollars with the local funding by the municipality absorbing the
burden of these mandated enhancements by the State. This information was provided to
the Village Board for informational purposes only and require no action at this time.

MEMORANDUM
Village of Mount Prospect
Community Development Department
TO:
MICHAEL E. JANONIS, VILLAGE MANAGER
FROM:
DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
DATE:
APRIL 6, 2007
MEETING DATE:
APRIL 10, 2007
SUBJECT:
PROPOSED TEXT AMENDMENTS
BACKGROUND
Staff is in the process of updating the Zoning Ordinance and is seeking input from the Village Board and Planning
& Zoning Commissioners on the proposed changes. The first portion of the memo contains specific issues Staff is
seeking direction on from the Village Board. Following that is a list of changes to the Zoning Ordinance that
Staff is proposing in an effort to clarify code regulations and to make the Zoning Ordinance more user-friendly.
This list was arrived at based on Staffs experience using the Zoning Ordinance for permit review/explaining code
regulations to residents, feedback from professionals using the code, and general updates based on current best
practices.
Staff prepared a list of topics that need to be reviewed to ensure the Zoning Ordinance is consistent with recent
Village Board policy decisions. This list was created based on actual zoning cases and trends Staff are aware of
occurring in other communities.
Townhomes
The Village has received many formal, and informal, submittals to rezone properties to build attached multifamily
housing (townhomes). Within the last few years, the Village has approved several developments (Dearborn Court
on Algonquin Road, Liberty Square on Louis Street, The Villas of Sevres on Northwest HWY, Stonegate Manor
on Camp McDonald Road). However, each of those projects underwent significant changes from the initial
submittal to the final approval in response to concerns of providing Guest Parking, reducing the density of the
development, and ensuring adequate Emergency Access to the site.
Currently the Zoning Ordinance does not require guest parking; the parking requirement is based on the number
of bedrooms. In some cases, the developments were 'self-contained' and on-street parking was not available.
Therefore, requiring on-site Guest Parking was prudent. Consequently, Staff is seeking direction on how to
proceed: should the Zoning Ordinance be modified to codify Village Policy with respect to guest parking and
other issues noted below that are frequently encountered with the recent multifamily infill developments?
. Density - should it be less than the 10 units per acre for the R2 District, and lower for the other districts?
. Guest parking - should the 5 spaces per unit be codified or can street parking be included when available?
. Garage size - Should a minimum size be established to address refuse and storage expectations?
. Green area / outdoor space - Is the emphasis on the required amount or more so on how it may be used?
. Private drives - How to calculate the private drive: should it be factored out of the size of the site acreage?
PZ-13-07
Committee of the Whole Meeting AprillO, 2007
Page 2
· Public amenities - The Zoning Ordinance requires it for PUDs but it is difficult to provide on-site for most
infill developments. Should the definition be revised to include off-site improvements or in another manner
to capture the Boards' expectations?
Floor Area Ratio
In response to questions concerning tear-downs, Staff has reviewed tear down practices in other communities and
found there are multiple approaches to the issue. Some communities addressed the issue by reducing the Floor
Area Ratio (FAR), others increased the required setbacks, while some communities did both. Some communities
implemented Design Guidelines and required the proposed design go before an Appearance Review Committee.
There are many different ways to approach the issue, but it is important to first identify the objective of the code
change.
· Is it to reduce the footprint of the house?
· Reduce the 'bulk' by stepping back the house and or having a smaller second story?
Staff is seeking input on how to proceed as the code should modified to reflect the objective of the change.
· Should the Zoning Ordinance be modified to incorporate elements from the other communities
such as reducing the FAR, which would reduce the size of the house?
· Should the FAR be redefined and bonuses given for unenclosed porches and detached garages?
Permitted and Conditional Uses
The attached chart notes changes proposed by Staff; the uses noted in bold italic font are proposed changes. The
most significant changes include creating provisions for cultural centers, pet daycare facilities, senior housing,
and distinguishing community centers from cultural centers. Staff is seeking input on including other uses that
the current Zoning Ordinance does not address.
Unenclosed Porch Process
In an effort to streamline the review process, in 2004 the Village Board approved a text amendment that allowed
the Planning and Zoning Commission's decision to be final for unenclosed porches. This change shortened the
approval process for the applicant as it currently takes between 30 to 60 days to get zoning approval for an
unenclosed porch. Once the P&Z approves the request, the applicant may apply for a building permit.
Since the Village Code was changed in 2004, the Village has received 16 Conditional Use applications for
unenclosed porches. The Planning & Zoning Commission has approved all of the requests. Staff
recommendation and the Commission decisions are based on whether quality materials were being used, would
the encroachment create a sight obstruction, and whether the design blended with the existing house and
neighboring houses.
Staff raises the issue to inquire whether to pursue a Text Amendment that would allow unenclosed porches to be
handled similar to a Minor Variation request and only require approval from the Director of Community
Development.
LED Liehtine - Sienaee
The Village's Sign Code currently does not place limitations on the light levels for illuminated signs. Sec.7.501
requires signs to be turned off from lIpm to 7am if the sign is within 100' of a residential lot line, unless the
business is open during those hours. The regulations include provisions that address glare, motion, and require
lights to be contained within a protective casing.
Staff raises the issue to inquire if light levels for signage is an issue that the Village Board would like Staff to
pursue. Current technology has changed since the Sign Code was initially drafted and it may be helpful for the
PZ-13-07
Committee of the Whole Meeting April 10, 2007
Page 3
code to incorporate maximum light levels. However, enforcement is a consideration as well as the cost of
preparing a lighting plan for a sign.
Proposed Text Amendments
Chapter 7 - Sign Code
1. Revise Sign Code regulations for holiday lights, ATM signage/gas pump signage/drive-thru.
2. Revise the Sign Code to create regulations for wall signs specific to big box stores setback 300'+ from the
front property line and or eliminate the 150 sq. ft. cap on all wall signs.
3. Clarify signage regulations for temporary and permanent window signage.
4. Review sign code to allow for better signage along NW HWY.
Chapter 14 - Zoning Ordinance
5. Revise the landscape ordinance to include:
o provisions for cutting down trees
o updates to the tree species list (eliminate Ash from the planting list)
o incorporate the species Arboricultural Standards Manual
6. Note the required signature blocks for an Administrative Subdivision.
7. Clarify regulations concerning increasing nonconforming setbacks (Sec. 14.402.B).
8. Modify outdoor lighting regulations to allow flexibility for security lighting if requested by the Police
Department.
9. Clarify when dumpsters are required for existing commercial properties and multifamily developments.
10. Create regulations for PODS.
11. Clarify outdoor storage regulations for summer stock (plants, dirt, etc.) in commercial districts.
12. Clarify and build on existing regulations for the Condominium Conversion process.
13. Increase zoning case fees so the applicant pays the actual cost ofa case (includes paying the recording fee
and actual cost of publishing and mailing legal notice).
14. Review all definitions.
15. Review bulk regulations as identified in the Comprehensive Plan update, such as the building height in
the II District.
16. Review parking requirements by use type.
17. Create a definition and or clarify regulations for a parking pad.
18. Fence materials (PVC).
19. Clarify attic space as habitable (applicable to FAR definition).
20. Reorganize regulations for licensed wireless communication facilities and non-licensed towers.
21. Create provisions for pet parks to require a Conditional Use permit.
22. Modify Sec. 16.306.B.2 to reflect an 8' minimum driveway width, to be consistent with the Zoning
Ordinance.
PZ-13-07
Committee of the Whole Meeting April 10, 2007
Page 4
Input from Planning & Zoning Commissioners:
1. Conduct a comprehensive review of the building and zoning codes to ensure they do not inadvertently
prevent adoption of appropriate new energy efficiency and renewable resource technologies such as green
roofs, solar photovoltaic, and passive solar or LEEDS certification applications. Include demand-response
technologies and strategies such as lighting control and reduction. Examine the advisability of adopting
more efficient building codes and allowing newer materials to qualify. (Village codes may be fine, and
this would be a pro-active measure.)
2. Create appearance standards for all lot line fencing along main thoroughfares such as Golf, Central and
Rand Roads.
3. Prohibition of new development that creates rear lot lines along main thoroughfares.
4. Examination of all corner lots in the Village to ensure compliance with lot coverage and setbacks.
As changes to the Zoning Ordinance are considered, it is important to keep in mind the standards for a Text
Amendment. The standards for a Text Amendment are listed in Section 14.203.D.8.b of the Village Zoning
Ordinance and include seven specific findings that must be made in order to approve changes to the Zoning
Ordinance. The following list is a summary of these findings:
(1) The degree to which the proposed amendment has general applicability within the village at large
and not intended to benefit specific property.
(2) The consistency of the proposed amendment with the objectives of this chapter and the intent of the
applicable zoning district regulations.
(3) The degree to which the proposed amendment would create nonconformity.
(4) The degree to which the proposed amendment would make this chapter more permissive.
(5) The consistency ofthe proposed amendment with the comprehensive plan.
(6) The degree to which the proposed amendment is consistent with village policy as established in
previous rulings on petitioners involving similar circumstances.
Staff will be present at the April 10th Committee of the Whole Meeting to discuss changes to the Zoning
Ordinance and the Planning & Zoning Commissioners have been invited to attend the meeting as well. For
discussion purposes, a PowerPoint presentation will be made that provides examples of other recently constructed
attached multifamily developments.

Suburban Mosaic Book Program
Chairman Tolbert attended the meeting for the Suburban Mosaic Book Program, which is in its fourth
year. He advised that a new committee was appointed to look at the books for the fall 2007 program
and that a variety of books were distributed touching on different cultures The Chairman was not
aware of school district participation in the past. Commissioner Hernandez will pass along the
information to her school district.
"Make a Difference Day" Update
Chairman Tolbert received information that the participants are interested in collecting instruments
again this year. Mrs. Hernandez will check with her school district to find out who will handle the
distribution since she is resigning. Chairman Tolbert mentioned the idea that Holmes Jr. High would
perform again this year. Mrs. Hernandez agreed with this idea since bands are always looking for
opportunities to perform. They discussed coordinating the performance with another Village event;
such as Women's History Month, the Village Biannual Open House or Public Work's Open House.
The Chairman will contact the Mayor and Village Manager with this suggestion. They agreed the
events will add publicity to the program.
Forum on Race & Ethnic Diversity
Chairman Tolbert solicited comments from the commission. Mr. Parikh mentioned the Wilmette
program has significant funding for a variety of programs. He liked the idea of Villages trading off
various history months and celebrating together to pool funds. The main issue would be the distance
between Mount Prospect and Wilmette, if they were to share an open house. Mrs. Hernandez
suggested that schools can represent various cultures and it could be set up as an open house
forum. This has been done at Holmes Jr. High and Elk Grove is doing something similar. Mr. Parikh
mentioned tying the program in with the July 4th events Chairman Tolbert said the planning should

Chairman mentioned attending a Wilmette Community Relations meeting.
