The Lee County Planning Commission met on Monday, February 7, 2005 at 6:30 p.m. in
the Lee County Courthouse, Dixon, Illinois. Chairman, William O'Keefe, called the
meeting to order and took roll with the following members present: Bob Logan, Wendy
Ryerson, Pat Dunphy, Ellen Smith, John Hilleson, Chris Henkel, and Erica Scheidecker,
Clerk.
Chairman Bill O'Keefe stated that Russ Renner, the highway department engineer, was
present. As Mr. Renner could only be in attendance at the beginning of the meeting, the
issue pertaining to him would be addressed first.
Chris Henkel reported that the Lee County Storm Water Ordinance was created by Russ
Renner using the best of Ogle and Whiteside counties' ordinances. Mr. Henkel reported
that Rochelle area citizens have raised concerns regarding the ordinance, and that Russ
Renner had met with them to address those concerns.
Russ Renner reported on his meeting with citizens of Rochelle. At that meeting, Mr.
Renner told them that the storm water release rate in the ordinance is actually more
conservative than the common engineering standards found across the U.S. Mr. Renner
stated the outcome of the meeting was that the attendees were satisfied with the new
storm water ordinance, specifically that it would be as restrictive as was necessary. Their
only concern was that it might be changed between now and the time it's adopted. Mr.
Renner reported that Reynolds and Alto Township planned to hold a special meeting
immediately and adopt the ordinance themselves, although they were unsure of its
legality. For areas that do need to control storm water, Mr. Renner recommended
evaluating and addressing those issues locally, rather than adopting an overly restrictive
ordinance for the county.
Chairman O'Keefe asked ifMr. Renner was comfortable with the current draft ofthe
storm water ordinance and he stated that he was.
New business was addressed beginning with the review of the sketch plan submitted by
John Schultz. The proposed 16-10tsubdivision is located in Amboy Township on the
southwest comer of Amboy, west of Rocky Ford Road. Chris Henkel reported he
received letters from the Mayor and the Planning Commission ofthe City of Amboy
saying they approve of the plans for development.
Chris Henkel reported that the health department had no issue with the sketch plan, and
the only concern raised was by the highway department.
Chairman O'Keefe inquired ifthe property was on sewer and Mr. Henkel replied that it
was not. Mr. O'Keefe asked John Schultz why they don't get annexed by the city. Mr.
Schultz reported that the City of Amboy is amenable to annexing but the neighbors are
not.
Chairman a 'Keefe asked if the area was contiguous to Amboy and Chris Henkel replied
that it was not. There is a small piece of land in between.
Bob Logan stated Mr. Schultz might be able to get sewer and water from the city even
though the property is not contiguous. There could be an intergovernmental agreement
so that the subdivision could receive sewer, and when the area does become contiguous it
would have to be annexed. Bill O'Keefe stated that if it was within a mile and a half it
could be annexed.
Chairman O'Keefe stated that the comprehensive plan encourages development
contiguous to existing communities, because they do have sewer and water. It is
desirable to have them tie into sewer and water to the extent possible. The planning
commission doesn't want septic developments next to an existing community with a
sewer plant that is a 'l4mile away. Bill O'Keefe also observed that the city could
condemn the land for easements for sewer and water, ifit's within a mile and a half.
Bob Logan recommended that Mr. Schultz talk to Amboy to reach an agreement
regarding sewer. It was observed that the city does not have water at this time. Mr.
Logan then added this subdivision should be made as city lots. Mr. Henkel also stated
that if it is annexed then lot size could as small as % acres because of city sewer.
Russ Renner, the county engineer, stated that the highway department's concern was a
possible conflict with preliminary plans to make improvements on the Rocky Ford bridge
and road. They are planning to take the bend out ofthe road that can be seen on Mr.
Schultz's sketch plan. Mr. Schultz stated that this would not be a problem and he could
alter the affected lots.
Mr. Renner also stated that there needed to be a cul-de-sac or hammer head on the end of
the new proposed roadways and Mr. Schultz replied that this was also not a problem. He
reported that they were planning on creating cul-de-sacs.
Chris Henkel reported if the subdivision was on both city sewer and water the lots can be
as small as Y2acre in size, which is to Mr. Schultz's advantage.
Bill O'Keefe stated this location is appropriate for development and that the commission
was not trying to discourage Mr. Schultz. Chairman O'Keefe stated that the Planning
Commission would like to see this subdivision tied into the utilities of Amboy. Chris
Henkel concluded that we are not giving the green light on the sketch, but the
recommendation from the Planning Commission is that Mr. Schultz should contact
Amboy and see what steps can be taken. Following this, Mr. Schultz should return to this
commISSIon.
Next, Chairman O'Keefe asked if there were any comments or corrections to last month's
minutes. There were none and Wendy Ryerson made a motion to approve and Bob
Logan seconded. All were in favor. The minutes were adopted from last month's
meeting.
Mr. O'Keefe asked ifthere were any visitors present who were not listed on the agenda.
Visitor Dawn Andermann, acting village president of Steward, stated that the Village of
Steward is currently developing a Comprehensive Plan that will be done by the end of
March. Consultant Dave Emanuelson is assisting them and was present as well.
Chairman O'Keefe stated that this project needed to wait until the remapping ofthe
county zoning map is undertaken. The remapping will occur after the new ordinances are
adopted, as there will be new zoning categories. Most of Steward will be zoned as TN
(traditional neighborhood), which means development can occur if it's compatible with
existing uses.
Dave Emanuelson stated that their second issue is the planned use map. Rochelle is
threatening to come outside of Ogle County and into Lee County, so Steward is trying to
protect its northern boundaries. Steward currently has water but not sanitary sewer.
Ultimately, they would like develop an agreement to hookup to Rochelle's sewer. The
purpose for a comp plan is so trustees can have something to say, and to coordinate with
Lee County.
Mr. O'Keefe stated that when the Lee County Comprehensive Plan was made in 2000
this region of the county was neglected, but it is now a high priority. Chairman O'Keefe
stated that every community will be at the table when the remapping is done, and there
will be public hearings.
Bob Logan asked that since Steward is incorporated, if they adopt a comp plan and
zoning ordinance. Bill a 'Keefe replied that they could. Ms. Andermann stated that they
were not worried about inside the village, but about the mile and a half jurisdiction
around it. Bob Logan stated with their comp plan, they would get strong control over it.
Chairman O'Keefe stated that they will have input into the remapping process and into
revisions of the master plan. He told them to keep in contact with the planner,
Vandewalle. Mr. O'Keefe suggested they attend the next Planning Commission on
March 7, as there will be a presentation by Mike Slavney from Vandewalle.
The second order of new business was the hearing for Petition 05-PC-45 from Gary
Greenwood for PPN# 14-09-04-200-005, Nachusa Township. The property is located on
the East side of Detour Rd. approximately 14mile north ofIL RT 38.
The property owner, Gary Greenwood, would like to create a two-lot subdivision out of
his five acre parcel, with lot sizes 1.14 and 3.374 acres. Chris Henkel referred to the
sketch plan for the two lot subdivision, stating Mr. Greenwood planned to make a second
lot on the north side of his property. Chris Henkel reported that Mr. Greenwood had
made the changes recommended by the Planning Commission to the sketch plan. Mr.
Henkel reported that all of Mr. Greenwood's paper work had been turned in and
notifications to the neighbors had been sent. Mr. Henkel stated the health department had
no problems with the proposed subdivision.
Wendy Ryerson made a motion to approve and Bob Logan seconded. It was approved
unanimously. Chairman O'Keefe stated it will go to the Lee County Board on February
15 at 9:00 a.m. with a recommendation for approval.
Bill O'Keefe stated he had received a memo from Vern Gottel, titled "Proposed I-39/IL
Route 251 Distribution Corridor Plan" which Mr. Gottel had found on the internet. Bill
O'Keefe stated it is important but it's not something that this commission is working on
and it should be forwarded to the appropriate people. Marilyn Shippert, a Lee County
Board Member, stated that we should question whether it is a valid document. Chris
Henkel will contact Mike Ribel from Ogle County Zoning to determine the status of this
plan. Chris Henkel will also determine ifthe memo should be passed on to our planner,
Mike Slavney. Bill O'Keefe stated this issue will be deferred to the next meeting.
Chris Henkel reported that Petition 04-PC-44 by Steven C. Kitzman was approved by the
Lee County Board. Also, Petition 04-P-1399 by Ronald Weber was approved by the Lee
County Board.
Chairman O'Keefe asked Chris Henkel what old business needed to be addressed.
Chris Henkel reported he had received feedback on the zoning ordinances from Chuck
Montavon from the village of Compton. Residents would like a two foot setback inside
the property line for fences. Bill O'Keefe stated that was not feasible. He stated that
people assume fences are on property lines and that a setback would generate confusion
and dispute.
Chris Henkel also reported that Compton residents would like seven foot setbacks on
fences in alleyways so that there is space for snow plows to push the snow. Chris Henkel
stated Compton wanted Lee County to make it an ordinance that requires surveys for
fences. Chairman O'Keefe stated that we would not require surveys for fences.
It was also observed that the number of alleys in Compton was probably only about three.
John Hilleson stated that this type of issue is appropriate for the township to address
themselves. It is too difficult for the Planning Commission to determine something that
will work for the entire county. Bob Logan and Wendy Ryerson agreed.
Mr. O'Keefe recommended those individuals attend the public hearing to voice their
OpInIOn.
Chris Henkel asked if there was anything in the new ordinances about fencing in the front
yard and if so, what it was. Bill O'Keefe stated that there was a provision regarding this.
He said this issue should be deferred to the next meeting.
Bob Logan moved to adjourn the meeting and Wendy Ryerson seconded. All were in
favor and the meeting was adjourned at 7:45 p.m.

FINANCE COMMITTEE MEETING
THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 10,2005
9:00 A.M.
Members present: Binder, Truckenbrod, Hummel, Nicholson, Shippert
present: Nancy Nelson, Marty Meyer, Kim Becker, John Fritts, Diane Markel,
Cathy Ferguson, Denise McCaffrey, Bev Power
Binder opened the meeting at 9:00 a.m.
Marilyn Shippert reported that CST (Countywide sales tax) ~% goes to County; CT (supplementary
sales tax) does not include municipalities; IUT (increased use tax) purchases made out of state, but IL
tax paid.
Revenue down about $62,000 from all county services; receipts down from same time last year.
Expenses to date are $416,571 over revenue.
Following a question on what is included in "orders paid in vacation." Some phone bills come in before
committee meetings, some don't. Garnishments, bills that would be delinquent, insurance claims are
included. Salary and overtime are not considered "paid in vacation."
County Board Chair and Finance Chair have discussed "outside legal counsel." With changes in State's
Attorney, this question again addressed. State's Attorney Whitcombe prepared a letter. Following
receipt of this letter, Finance Chair prepared a policy detailing States Attorney's opinion. This is to be
signed by Board Chairman and forwarded to elected officials.
Binder has requested opinion from State's Attorney if group health insurance money be maintained in a
separate fund in order to build reserves for group health claims.
Expected that IMRF will go up to 9.73% from non SLEP, 5.16% this year. Investments were poor for 5
years. Pool amount decreasing. Lee County was at lower rate from time County had nursing home. In
December, Fritts warned that next year will require an additional $200,000.
Kim Becker present with Dependent Children's Fund report. Also has emergency appropriation for
"exceptional performances raises." Noted that these will be paid as bonuses, so does not add to base
salaries, but IMRF and Sec. Security will be additional expense to County.
Denise and State's Attorney Whitcombe met with representative from SC Services. As per signed
contract, SC Services is following up on some "do not appear" tickets that were not paid. SC Services is
collecting from cases that aren't incorporated in the Alliant program. This program has been successful
in other counties.
Binder reviewed State legislation; Circuit Clerk will pursue two of the new possibilities. Probation is
already working.
Debby Maddy from Village Profile of Elgin was present. John Thompson, Dixon Chamber of
Commerce, requested that she attend this meeting. Dixon is overdue for new map. This will be a
fundraiser for Dixon Chamber of Commerce. Dixon map is on one side and County on other side.
Everything is on Dixon website. KSB has purchased the front page. Each link can have a sponsor. For
government link, Lee County has first option on cornerstone ad. (This good for 3 years, maps 5000
copies to Chamber and 5000 distributed elsewhere) including 95 free copies to County.
Business size ads: $445. Ad recommended for Lee County is $1800 (nonnally $2195) for full color.
This is a discounted price, and gives County "ownership" of the government link. She is leaving
infonnation on other prices. Discussion will be continued later in the meeting.
Binder addressed group to set record straight. He has been getting questions regarding Circuit Clerk's
Office. Previously, the Circuit Clerk had 4 supervisory positions with salaries comparable to all other
employees with $1000 additional pay given to the 4 employees paid from a circuit clerk fund.
One person will now be Chief Deputy. This person received same percentage raise as other employees:
$1,000. Person now gives up the $1000 "bonus"; $3000 additional pay for chief deputy is in line with
all other chief deputies.
The Capital Projects Fund presently has a balance of$3,752,506.89. Binder would like to propose that a
$2,000,000 principle reduction be made. This will reduce the amortization from 8 years to 5 ~ years.
Would save $556,295 over projected cost ofloan.
Binder read an emergency appropriation to move $2,000,000 from Capital Projects Cash Account to
Transfer Out to prepay on loan principle. Motion to approve, seconded by Shippert; carried.
Emergency appropriation to move $240,651.35 from Capital Projects Cash Account to Transfer Out to
make quarterly loan payment. Motion by pay by Hummel, seconded by Nicholson; carried.
Request from Sheriff to transfer $836 from County General to Sheriffs part-time for reimbursement of
Inmate Work Detail.
Blackhawk Hills RC&D has requested first half of their appropriation; this will be processed.
Nicholson addressed issue of very small claims coming through such as phone bills under $5.00. Could
a check for perhaps $30 be made to phone company - in essence paying ahead. John Fritts will ask
auditor ifthis is legal to do.
Return to map issue. Three committee members would rather spend money to improve website. Two
think county should be linked. County money is given to support LCIDA and link should be requested.
Following assessment by Properties Chair and Chris Henkel, some old carpeting should be replaced in
Courts Building. Entire project would be around $20,000. Project is coming in close to budget. This
would be an appropriate expense as part of renovation of old part. The carpeting is 22 years old, looked
bad before renovation and worse with construction and in contract to the new. Properties and
maintenance will pursue this.
Respectfully submitted,
Judy Truckenbrod
