IV. LEVEE 37
In 1997, the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers issued a Feasibility Report and Environmental
Impact Statement focused on lessening urban flood damage along the upper Des Plaines
River watershed including the Prospect Heights/Mount Prospect area. The report estimated
that the two most recent major flood events in 1986 and 1987 caused regional damage in
excess of $100 million. The report suggested a series of levee ad detention projects along
the River that would lessen the frequency of flooding and the attendant damage to residents
and businesses that flows there from.
One of the projects with the highest cost/benefit ratio is the "Levee 37" project and would run
between Euclid Avenue and Palatine Road along the east side of River Road. Along with
the "backwater valves" previously installed by the Village, the Levee would afford the
northeast area of the Village a significant degree of flood protection. Due to the high cost
benefit ratio, the Army Corps recommends it as one of the first projects to be constructed.
Mount Prospect Mayor Gerald Farley and Prospect Heights Mayor Ed Rotchford have been
working with the Corps, Cook County Forest Preserve, Illinois Department of Natural
Resoumes and Northeastern Iltinois Planning Commission since 1997 to secure approval
and funding for the Levee 37 project. While the process has been painfully slow, it appears
final approvals and a Federal appropriation may be at hand. There will be a 20% local
funding match required from the two communities. The exact amount will be determined in
the near future.
NOTE: ANY INDIVIDUAL WHO WOULD LIKE TO ATTEND THIS MEETING BUT BECAUSE OF A

At this time, staff would like to provide an update on the status of the project, including
characteristics of the construction, estimated local costs and a likely timeline. Included in
the package is some background material. Appropriate staff will be present to answer
questions and facilitate discussion.
2003 COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE DISCUSSION TOPICS
Over the past several years, the Village Manager's Office has attempted to better manage
the flow of information, which comes to the Village Board through the Committee of the
Whole Agendas. As you know, Committee of the Whole meetings are designed specifically
to allow for more extensive discussion of pending policy, finances, Code changes and
various items of community interest. The Committee of the Whole also serves as a forum
for discussion of items, which are unexpected, controversial, or of an emergency nature.
The evening's discussion will consist of reviewing suggested topics, discussing briefly the
rationale and need for discussion and the potential timing for bringing such items forward.
Board members, as well as staff, were asked to provide any suggested topics that they
would like to have considered. These items are included in the accompanying package. In
the past, the Village Board has engaged in a polling process, which identifies subjects that
have the support of the Board for research and review. Appropriate staff will be available to
answer questions and facilitate discussion.
LOCAL ETHICS FORM
Chapter 8, Article I of the Village Code, entitled "Officers; Employees" contains, among other
things, local rules and regulations governing "Conflicts of Interest" (8.115). Paragraph F.
provides that a local Disclosure Statement be filed annually with the Village Clerk. A Village
Board member has raised concerns that the local Disclosure Statement might be overly
intrusive in the breadth of wholly personal information required on the form. The Village
Manager requested that Corporation Counsel draft ~ "revised" Disclosure Statement that
might be more narrowly worded and still accomplish the purpose of assuring that a Village
official is neither doing business with the Village nor receiving any benefit from the Village
that is not available to any other resident on the same basis.
Attached is both the current Disclosure Statement and a draft revised Statement. The draft
Statement limits the information requested to situations where the Village official/employee
or immediate family has dealings with the Village either individually (Zoning/Code violations)
or through an entity doing business with the Village. Also attached is a copy of the
"Statement of Economic Interest" all e!ected/appointed officials are required to file annualty
with the Cook County Clerk.
Appropriate staff will be in attendance to answer questions and facilitate discussion.

2003 BUDGET DISCUSSION
Mayor Farley stated that this the last of three Budget meetings and this meeting will
include a summary of previous meetings and the December meetings of the Village
Board will be for public hearing process leading to the final approval of the 2003 Budget.
Public Works Department Budqet Review,
Public Works Director Andler provided an overview of Department responsibilities and
structure. He highlighted the 2002 accomplishments which included the sixth year of the
Accelerated Street Program and the start of resurfacing phase of the accelerated street
program. He stated eight miles of streets were done this year which brings the total up
to 50 miles compIeted so far. He also stated that Village residents diverted
approximately 43% of the waste stream through recyclable materials. He stated the
flood control efforts of the Village have garnered a Class 7 rating which makes Mount
Prospect one of only three towns in Illinois that has such a rating.
1
He stated his budget is down 4.7% and one of the larger increases in his budget is due
to the bdck sidewalk maintenance and the shifting of the sidewalk improvement program
to the street resurfacing program in order to get better, pricing from single-source
contractors.
One of the new initiatives he is requesting for next year is the purchase of JULIE
management software. This will allow better management and confirmation of utility
locates. He also stated his Department gets a tremendous number of locates regularly
and the opportunity to manage the requests is recommended. His budget also includes
funds for relocating water mains in the Prospect Manor area. He stated this used to be a
private water system which was taken over by the Village when the area was annexed
and all of the service lines are in the rear yards and he would like to relocate those to the
public right-of-way for improved access. He stated another large initiative the
Department is undertaking is the combined sewer improvement study which is mandated
by the State. He stated that an inventory study is underway and 37 miles of 96 miles
have been completed. He also stated that it is anticipated that the railroad crossing at
Route 83 which was delayed this fall will be rebuilt in the spring of 2003 and although it
should only last ten days, there will be traffic disruption within the community which will
need to be coordinated.
General comments from the Village Board members included some discussion regarding
sidewalk work coordination with street resurfacing and reconstructing work. There was a
comment regarding the status of this budget and its impact on overall infrastructure
maintenance. This budget is only delaying things that will need to be addressed no
matter what the budget condition is in the future and it is not recommended that
extensive deferrals of the Village infrastructure are repeated.
Non-Departmental Budget Review
Finance DireCtor Doug EIIsworth provided a summary of the debt service, pensions,
cNic/community services. He stated the civic and community budget represents a 7%
reduction.
Village Manager Mike Janonis stated that Trustee Hoefert has requested in writing that
the Village Board reconsider the funding reductions to the Historical Society.
Pal Marshall, Historical Society Board member, spoke. She stated that there are
numerous fixed expenses which make up the Budget and they have been aggressive in
obtaining grants that the proposed reduction by the Board will significantly impact their
overall operations.
Andy Hummel, Historical Society Board member, spoke. He stated that salaries
make up approximately 60% of the budget and even though other services have been
reduced, there is a direct benefit that is obtained from their activities.
General discussion from the Village Board members included the following comments:
2
Several Board membem stated that they found the Historical Society was a worthy
endeavor and would challenge them and other groups to work at making up the
difference in funding, it was also mentioned that all Departments in the Village ars being
asked to sacrifice and any restoration for the Historical Society should be based on type
of performance based on funding or matching funds. It was also suggested that there
could be funds moved from other civic operations to the Historical Society to assist in
restoring part or all of the funding that has been cut.
Village Manager Janonis also stated that if the reduction could be found elsewhers and
the Historical Society budget allocation could rsmain at the original amount and adjust
mid-year depending on the budget situation at that time.
Consensus of the Village Board was to restore $2,000 from the civic and
community events area to the Historical Society and the Historical Society would
be responsible for obtaining the remaining $2,000 to make up the difference of the
entire proposed reduction.
Debt Service Summary
Finance Director Doug EIIsworth stated the Debt Service shows an increase of 6.8%.
He stated the property tax rslated to debt is increasing due to the Library and Village
Hall. He stated the proposed pension increases reflect actual cash expenditures and he
foresees an increase in Police and F[re pensions. He stated the Risk Management and
Insurance Fund shows a health insurance increase of 20% for next year.
Mount Prospect Public Library
The Budget is $26.1 million and includes $19 million for expansion and a 3.1% increase
in operating expenses.
John Korn, Finance Commission Chairman, spoke. He stated that he would like to
thank staff for their work in prsparing this budget and is concerned about using Fund
balances to maintain funding for non-critical services. He would recommend moving
$1,000 in the Visions Committee for a Southside Resource Center as seed money even
though there is not enough money to get the Center started. He also stated that the
Village should not assist in providing funds for rslocation of the old school building in
case there is a rsquest.
Mayor Farley suggested a joint meeting with the Village Board and Finance
Commission after the first of the year in an effort to discuss long-term revenue issues.
Village Manager Janonis presented an option to jump-start the Traffic Unit by using
overtime for exclusive traffic details. He stated that for each 113 hours of overtime, the
cost would be $5,000 which would net approximately ten hours per traffic detail based
on the typical complexity of the rsquests that have come through in the past. This could
be adequate to address the traffic rsquests on a basic. He stated any additional
overtime would come from budget rsserves and this is only a short-term option.
General comments by Village Board members included whether there were additional
funds allotted for traffic control dudng theRoute 83 railroad crossing repair.

=
VI.
Village Manager Janonis stated that there have been no funds earmarked for such an
event at this time.
General consensus of the Village Board was to increase the Police Department
overtime budget for traffic control and enforcement by $20,000. Funds would be
taken from reserves.
Trustee Corcoran stated that the 2003 budget should not be repeated in 2004. He
stated there have been issues addressed incrementally but there is a need to link the
cost of actual service with the revenue stream respective of economic conditions. He
stated the Village Board needs to define the level of pain it is willing to accept before
empowering the Finance Commission for recommendations.
Trustee Skowron supported Trustee Corcoran's suggestion about the Board analysis
necessary to address the 2004 Budget situation.
ANY OTHER BUSINESS
Manager Michael Janonis thanked staff for their effort in preparing the Budget.

Plaines R/vet Flood Control PrOject - Levee 37 Site Layout
The Mount Prospect/ PrOspect Heights flood control project
consists of levees, floodwalls, a sand road closure and a
gate road closure. The project starts just north of Euclid
Avenue and r~ns north along the east side of Des Plaines
Kiver Road, crosses Milwaukee Avenue at the intersection with
Des Plaines River Road and continues north along the east
side of Milwaukee Avenue and end~ at Palatine Road. The
majority of.the flood control feature at this site is on
Forest Preserve District Property. Real estate aspects of
this layout are presented below.
~loodWall
Length 4,022 ft
Acreage .186 acres
Easement
Permanent 1.858 acres
Temporary 1.393 acres
Levee_
Length 3,810 ft
Acreage 2.913 acres
Easement
Permanent 1.734 acres
Temporary 1.306 acres
The typicai-structure layout is offset 15' from the edge of
curb to allow for roadway drainage and interior drainage
design.. Each type of structure requires both temporary and
permanent easements for construction, access, maintenance and
flood fighting. Typical permanent easement offset for this
project is 10' on each side of the structure measured from
the toe line. Typical temporary easement offset is 10' on
the riverside and 5' on the roadway side measured from the
permanent easement line. Specific areas may require more or
less temporary easement for construction.
The typical levee is an earthen structure with a 10' crest
width and 1 vertical to 2'.5 horizontal side slopes. The
typical floodwall is a concrete structure with a steel sheet
pile base. 'The wall is 1'4" thick at the top and 2'1W' at
the bottom. The depth of sheet pile will vary.
The top elevation of the levee and floodwall represent the 1%
flood event plus freeboard and apply to the levee condition
only. The actual, elevations used in the layout are stepped
using 6" increments to allow for a consistent and level
structure crest. The elevation increments range from 641.0
near Euclid Avenue to 642.5 at Palatine Road.
Attachment
5. The strUcture starts 350, north of Euclid Avenue' as a Levee ....
and continues north to station 41+50 where the structure
· transitions to a floodwall. In this reach the levee '~.
intersects with 2 Forest Preserve District (FPD) driveways.
The driveways will be raised to provide a continuous level of
protection and still maintain access to FPD facilities. Th~
floodwall continues north to the intersection of Milwauk~.~
Avenue and Des Plaines River Road. ~-~a.~
north and ~o~d ~e existing ~ station where it ~es
the Willow Road bridge ~an~ent. This plan ~co~orates
local sponsor preferences for le~e ~d floo~l
co~ig~ation. The floodwall is ~referred at ~e no~ ~lf
where the tree l~e is thick and close to ~e roadway. The
levee is preferred at ~e south ~lf where ~e tree ~ne is
neither as close to ~e roadway or as dele ~ ~e tree line
is to ~e no~h.
This plan requires a levee tieba6k to reach'the required
level of protection. The levee tieback requires two separat~
e!emehts. One is a 2' high sand road closure on Milwaukee
Avenue at the north side of the Palatine Road Express Lane
Overpass. The second is a floodwall along the north side of
the Palatine Road Express Lane west of Milwaukee Avenue
cutting off water flanking the north end of the floodwall.
The tieback will be approximately 1300' long. "
A pump station and culverts and/or ditches will be needed to
handle the interior drainage. The interior drainage plan is
in development and is not shown on the layout.

MEMORANDUM
TO:
Michael E. Janonis, Village Manager
Village of Mount Prospect
FROM: Everette M. Hill, Jr.
DATE: May 7, 2002
RE:
Annual Disclosure Statement
Concerns have been raised recently with respect to the breadth of our annual ethics
disclosure statement. I was asked if the disclosure statement might be more narrowlyworded
and still accomplish the purpose of assuring that a Village official is neither doing business
with the Village nor receiving any benefit from the Village that is not available to any other
resident on the same basis. Attached please find a redline draft of our disclosure statement
that attempts to accomplish this purpose. The statement has been recast in terms of current
Village business transactions rather than a disclosure of all real estate or business interests of
the official. I have also included our Code definition of "immediate family" on the Disclosure
Statement.
If you have any questions, please contact me.

ORDINANCE NO.
