Resolution No. 1415-107 by Commissioner Densberger, seconded by Commissioner Jeffers; BE IT RESOLVED BY
THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF EAST PEORIA, ILLINOIS that Resolution No. 1415-107 hereto attached, a
Resolution approving a Development Agreement with Frontier Hospitality Group, LLC, be hereby approved, and that
this Resolution No. 1415-107 having been read once by its title and having laid on the table for no less than one week
for public inspection, be adopted as presented.
Commissioner Densberger discussed the terms in the Development Agreement. Commissioner Joos discussed
meeting with a number of hotel developers over the past few years and that the individuals with Frontier Group are
impressive. He outlined the agreement on three separate points: (1) the City is offering free land on a little over two
acres of property; (2) the City agreeing to run any necessary infrastructure to the property; and (3) the City providing
up to $300,000 in property tax rebate over seven years to offset foundation expenses that are higher than typical
foundation expenses based on the location. He discussed running infrastructure as being the responsibility of the City
as other property owners selling the property would do the same. He explained that he has a comparison property that
was sold and would put this lot somewhere in the range of $600,000. He explained that he will not support this
agreement for that reason.
Page 2
Commissioner Jeffers discussed the payback of the property is a three year period based on the anticipated revenue.
He discussed the property potentially sitting vacant if the property is not sold and developed. The advantage of the
property is that it allows the City to develop other lots around this property. He discussed the property increasing the
value of the other lots. He explained that he believes that this is a great investment for the City and not money spent.
Mayor Mingus explained that he has had extensive conversations on this item, and he will be voting in favor of this
as it is the will of the Council.
Yeas: Commissioners Densberger, Jeffers, and Mayor Mingus.
Nays: Commissioner Joos.

approved, and that this Resolution No. 1415-109 be accepted on its first reading as read by its title, and be laid on the
table for no less than one week for public inspection.

Commissioner Densberger explained that this is something that Director of Planning & Community Development, Ty

connection with those trail users and economic development for retail and other places along the trail. He discussed
the signage and that it is graphic signs that are universal.
Commissioner Jeffers commented that this item does not need to come to the agenda due to the low cost of the
expenditure.
Commissioner Joos asked what particular locations will the signs be placed and asked if the City has incurred expenses
for signage on the trail in the past. Director Livingston explained the segment that the signs would cover. He explained
that typically the signs are on park district property. These are informational signage. The City has done required

WORKING SESSION
CITY COUNCIL
401 WEST WASHINGTON STREET
EAST PEORIA, ILLINOIS
March 17, 2015
Mayor Mingus called the Working Session of the City Council of East Peoria, Illinois to order at 5:01 P.M.
Upon the roll being called the following answered present: Mayor Mingus, Commissioners Densberger,
Jeffers, and Joos.
Absent: Commissioner Decker.
Mayor Mingus explained that no official action would take place by the City Council at the meeting. He
explained that the purpose of the meeting is to have a working session on the Civic Plaza and Sculpture Walk
Consultant Presentation, and Buildings and Inspections Fees and Proposed Changes. He turned the discussion
over to Director of Planning & Community Development, Ty Livingston. Director Livingston discussed the
process thus far in the Civic Plaza and Sculpture Walk conceptual process. He explained that this is just a
concept to receive feedback tonight, and there would be future plans to make the project more concrete. Dan
Weinbach from Weinbach & Associates introduced himself and his partner. Mr. Weinbach presented a site
plan of the proposed concept plan. He discussed the features of the plan, including a water feature, terraced
seating, pavilion, upper plaza with sculpture, and other items. Mr. Weinbach discussed details of the terraced
water feature. He showed several visual renderings on a projected screen to represent the concepts for the
space. He explained that lighting was recently discussed and that lighting would be an important aspect of the
space that would help year-round.
Mayor Mingus asked if it would be possible to phase this project over time. Mr. Weinbach explained that it is
possible and recommended that the structural elements be done at the beginning. Commissioner Jeffers asked
who is paying for the project. Mayor Mingus explained that there is a Foundation that has been established to
raise money to pay for the project. Commissioner Jeffers discussed the idea of a paved place of gathering that
was included in the concept. He explained that he likes the concept as a place of gathering and that it includes
aspects that he favors.
Mr. Weinbach discussed the sculpture walk. He explained that this has been looked at in a very conceptual
way. He displayed a map that showed the location of the sculpture walk including existing and proposed
additions. He displayed pictures of examples of another sculpture walk/park. He discussed the potential uses
of the sculpture walk that includes bicyclers, walkers, and others. There are proposed bridges across the levee.
He discussed another component along the Illinois River in Riverfront Park and next to Bass Pro Shops. The
concept is for a linear park setting with sculptures. He discussed using native plants that once established do
not require much maintenance.
Commissioner Densberger asked about a mechanism to provide the sculptures. Mr. Weinbach explained that it
can be a combination of permanent and temporary ones. He explained that a sculpture park in Evanston,
Illinois was generated by a single donor. There are permanent and rented or rotated sculptures. He anticipates
a mixture of both in East Peoria. He explained that the more sculptures that you can get the better and the
more you change the sculptures the better.
Director Livingston discussed federal funding coming through the State through a grant that he hopes will still
come through to the City. He discussed the bones for the walk being there and making connections as the
funds are available. This is a vision for the future.
Page 2
Mayor Mingus asked for additional comments from City Council. There was no response.
Mayor Mingus asked for comments from the audience. Bob Jorgensen of East Peoria asked about a water
garden being possible for rainwater control. Director Livingston explained that it may lend itself to those
rainwater controls to assist in watering the plants and grasses.
Mayor Mingus asked for any additional questions or comments. There was no response.
Director of Buildings and Inspection, Robert Cole, and Residential Building Inspector, Steve Minner, began
discussions about Buildings and Inspections Fees and Proposed Changes. Director Cole discussed the regional
partnership with Peoria, Pekin, Washington, Counties, and others. He discussed the need for consistency
across municipal lines. He discussed increasing efficiencies in the Department. He explained that the
proposed fees represent efficiencies and additional inspections required.
Inspector Minner began discussions about the fee schedule. He discussed a packet handed out that includes
code changes that would be required. He discussed East Peoria calculating new construction for residential
differently than other municipalities. The City was not following inflation so the department is recommending
using a higher multiplier for calculating new construction. He discussed other permit fees and proposed
changes. He discussed plumbing fees in the City Code and recommended changes to the City Code. There
was a discussion about educating the public on when permits are required. There was a discussion about a
refundable inspection deposit. Inspector Minner discussed electrical fees and those proposed fee changes and
City Code proposed changes. He discussed further changes to the City Code.
Mayor asked Council for any questions or comments. Commissioner Densberger explained that this is a lot of
information to digest and this is an information session for City Council to look at now and in the future.
Mayor Mingus asked for another working session in the future.
Commissioner Joos explained that he was a little confused by raising new construction fees and that new
construction is not busy. He asked why we have not had a working session on neighborhood blight when it is
one of the City Council’s top priorities.
John Kahl of East Peoria explained that he agrees with Commissioner Joos.
Jeff Giebelhausen of East Peoria explained that what the City needs to be doing is waiving or cutting fees to
promote residential growth.
Motion by Commissioner Densberger, seconded by Commissioner Jeffers; Mr. Mayor, I move you that we
adjourn the meeting.
Yeas: Commissioners Densberger, Jeffers, Joos, and Mayor Mingus.
Nays: None.
Mayor Mingus declared the motion carried and the meeting adjourned at 5:58 P.M.

Resolution No. 1415-110
TO:
The Honorable Mayor and the City Council
THRU:
J. Thomas Brimberry, City Administrator
FROM:
Ty Livingston, Director of Planning & Community Development
DATE:
March 12, 2015
SUBJECT:
Trail Signage
BACKGROUND: Over the past few years, staff has been meeting with a local group of cyclists
and park district representatives (both Peoria and Fondulac) to discuss signage improvements to our
hiking biking trail now that it is completed – the segment which runs through the entire City from
the foot of the Bob Michael Bridge to the Morton village limits.
The signs proposed here are basic, way-finding signage to identify the name of the trial – The River
Trail of Illinois - along with providing guidance to trail users on where to find places to eat,
restrooms, shop, etc… It has also been shown that trail users are an untapped source of customers
for our businesses and since we have so many located along the trail between River Road and Main
Street, it just makes sense for us to offer some information along the trail which will aid hikers and
bikers, alike, the means to find them. Given this economic development connection, the funds for
this pilot program will come from the City’s New Markets Tax Credit proceeds.
The City received three bids from area sign shops and Vital Signs was the low bid at $2,148. Public
Works will install these posts at appropriate locations.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval as presented.
RESOLUTION NO. 1415-110
East Peoria, Illinois
________________, 2015
RESOLUTION BY COMMISSIONER
WHEREAS, the City has solicited proposals for the installation of signage along
that portion of the River Trail of Illinois located within the corporate limits of the City (the
“Project”); and
WHEREAS, Vital Signs, Inc. (the “Contractor”) has offered to complete the Project
under the terms and conditions set forth in the proposal attached hereto labelled as
“Exhibit A” (the “Proposal”) at a total cost of $2,148.00.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
EAST PEORIA, TAZEWELL COUNTY, ILLINOIS, THAT the City Administrator or his
designee is hereby authorized and directed to accept the Proposal on behalf of the City;
provided, however, that the City shall have no obligation under the terms of this

SUBJECT:
Resolutions for the City’s Group Health Care Plan
(1) Resolution Regarding Employee Contribution Rates for the City’s
Group Health Insurance Plan
(2) Resolution Regarding Reinsurance Carrier for the City’s Group Health
Insurance Plan
_____________________________________________________________________
DISCUSSION:
Annually, the City’s Insurance & Benefits Committee reviews the City’s self-funded
Group Health Care Plan and the financial status of the Plan. With the assistance of
Consociate (the Third Party Administrator for the City’s Health Care Plan), the
Committee has again completed this annual review process.
As a part of this annual review process, the Insurance Committee adjusts the Plan
contribution rates for plan options under the City’s Health Plan for the City and the City’s
employees for the upcoming plan year. Due to lower medical inflation for the past year
and the City-wide move to the reduced benefit PPO plan option on January 1, 2015, the
Plan’s overall financial picture has seen a slight decrease in costs for the upcoming year
for both reinsurance and claims funding. Accordingly, effective May 1, 2015, the
monthly employee contribution rates for the two plan options are as follows (the change
from current rates are shown in parentheses):
Individual
Individual + Child(ren)
Individual + Spouse
Family
PPO Plan
High Deductible Plan
$155.12
$280.64
$327.40
$483.32
$125.12
$235.64
$277.40
$408.32
(-3.78)
(-6.48)
(-7.50)
(-10.90)
(-26.28)
(-41.48)
(-45.00)
(-65.90)
As a reminder, all rate adjustments (increases and decreases) are split evenly between
the City and the City employees when the new rates are set. With regard to the High
Deductible Plan option, as participation rates have been extremely low, the contribution
rates have also been adjusted to make this plan option a more attractive option.
The Insurance Committee is also recommending maintaining the $25 per month
wellness incentive for employees participating in the City’s wellness program. Further,
the Insurance Committee is recommending that the City maintain the current HSA
(health savings account) contributions for active employees who enroll in the High
Deductible Plan option under the City’s Health Plan (Individual coverage: $50 per
month; Individual + Children coverage and Individual + Spouse coverage: $75 per
month; and Family coverage: $100 per month).
As you may recall, the Insurance Committee has recommended shifting the enrollment
period for the City’s Health Plan from the month of December to the month of April.
This shift in the enrollment period will allow employees to review the new contribution
rates for both of the plan options and determine which option is the best choice for the
employee for the upcoming 12-month period. This shift in the enrollment period was
approved by the City Council in November 2014, and this shift is now being
implemented for this upcoming fiscal year and will remain in place for future fiscal years,
as the upcoming enrollment period will take place this April for the upcoming 2015-16
fiscal year that starts on May 1, 2015.
Regarding the Committee’s annual review of reinsurance rates for the Plan, the
Committee is recommending that the City approve a reinsurance contract with HM Life
(as underwritten by Consociate) for the upcoming fiscal year, as HM Life has again
provided the most competitive rates. HM Life has provided the City’s reinsurance
coverage during the past several fiscal years.
Additionally, the Committee is
recommending that the City increase the annual specific deductible for each covered
individual from $100,000 to $110,000 as provided in the reinsurance contract with HM
Life. The second resolution approves the reinsurance policy with HM Life at this
individual specific deductible rate. The determination of the Plan contribution rates (and
ultimately the employee contribution rates) is primarily based upon the reinsurance
rates and the associated funding rates received from the City’s reinsurance carrier.
RECOMMENDATION:
The Insurance & Benefits Committee, as well as our office, recommends that the
Council pass each of these two Resolutions.

Year which will change employee monthly contribution rates for the two plan options as
provided below; and
WHEREAS, the Insurance Committee seeks to continue offering the $25 per
month wellness incentive to employees participating in the Plan who participate in the
City’s wellness program as a means to improve the health and welfare of the
participating employees and as a means to lead to long-term cost savings for the Plan;
and
WHEREAS, the Insurance Committee also seeks to continue providing an
incentive for employees to choose the HDHP plan option by providing City-funded
contributions to an employee’s health savings account (HSA) for employees choosing
coverage under the HDHP plan option, while also making the employee contribution
rates more attractive for all tiers of the HDHP plan option; and

recommended adjustments to the employee contribution rates for both Plan options that
will be effective at the beginning of the new Plan year on May 1, 2015;

during the Plan year commencing May 1, 2015, and ending on April 30, 2016.
Section 4. The City also adopts the recommendation made by the Insurance
Committee to continue offering the City’s contribution into a Health Savings Account
during the 2015-2016 fiscal year for employees enrolled in the High Deductible Health
Plan at the rates of $50 per month for Individual coverage, $75 per month for Individual
plus Children coverage, $75 per month for Individual plus Spouse coverage, and $100
per month for Family coverage
Section 5. The City Treasurer and the City’s Human Resources Director are
hereby authorized and directed to take appropriate action as necessary to implement
the new employee contribution rates for the City’s Plan effective May 1, 2015.

WHEREAS, the City of East Peoria maintains a self-insured group health care plan
(“Plan”) for the benefit of its employees, and the City’s Insurance and Benefits Committee
oversees the Plan; and
WHEREAS, in order to secure the financial viability of the Plan, the City obtains

Mayor David W. Mingus and Members of City Council
THRU: Tom Brimberry, City Administrator
FROM: City Attorney’s Office (Scott A. Brunton)
SUBJECT: Resolution Revising Membership of Insurance Committee
_____________________________________________________________________
DISCUSSION:
The Insurance Committee has recently reviewed the membership positions on the
Committee. In May 2000, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 0001-05 forming the
Insurance Committee. The City Council adopted Resolution No. 0001-05 based upon a
Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the City and each of then-existing
employee unions that had been entered into during April 2000. That MOU, in part,
addressed formalizing the status of the Insurance Committee and its procedures.
Resolution No. 0001-05 and the MOU remain valid operational documents for the City’s
Insurance Committee.
Pursuant to Resolution No. 0001-05, the Insurance Committee is made up of 15
members as follows:
2 members of Police Officers’ bargaining unit
2 members of Fire Fighters’ bargaining unit
2 members of Telecommunicators’ bargaining unit
2 members of Public Works employees’ bargaining unit
1 member from 2 EastSide Centre bargaining units
1 non-union employee from EastSide Centre
1 non-union employee from City Hall
1 City retiree
City Clerk
City Administrator / Designee (HR Director)
City Attorney / Designee
For the last couple of years, the Insurance Committee has basically been operating with
only 14 members because the one seat for the two EastSide Centre bargaining units
has been vacant. This is due to the fact that one of the EastSide Centre bargaining
units no longer exists, and the other EastSide Centre bargaining unit only has one
remaining member.
Upon reviewing the membership positions of the Insurance Committee, the Committee
looked at all City employees to determine and ensure that all employees have an active
representative on the Committee. The Public Works bargaining unit members agreed to
include the one member of the EastSide Centre bargaining unit in their group for
purposes of representation on the Committee. Further, several Department Heads are
covered by their respective non-union employee representatives at EastSide Centre
and City Hall. For the purposes of this review, the Insurance Committee placed the
Buildings & Inspections Department employees in with “City Hall”, as these employees
will be moving to the new City Hall after it is constructed in the next year.
Upon completing this review, the following group of employees was left without having a
designated representative on the Committee: the command staff of the Police, Fire, and
Telecommunication Departments and their administrative assistants and the Director,
Supervisors, and administrative assistant for Public Works (collectively hereinafter
referenced as the “Command Staff”). This Command Staff group covers approximately
21 employees across these departments.
Thus, in an effort to bring the Insurance Committee back up to a full 15 members, the
Committee is recommending that the one seat on the Committee formerly filled by one
representative from the two EastSide Centre bargaining units be replaced.
The
Insurance Committee is recommending that this seat be replaced with one
representative from the group of employees comprising the Command Staff. As a
result, all City employees would then have a specified representative on the Insurance
Committee.
This Resolution makes this change to the membership of the Insurance Committee
such that the Command Staff shall now have a representative with a seat on the
Insurance Committee. The other 14 seats on the Insurance Committee will remain the
same.
RECOMMENDATION:
The Insurance & Benefits Committee, as well as our office, recommends that the
Council pass this Resolution.

SUBJECT:
Renewal of Marina Management Agreement
Attached is a revised EastPort Marina Management Agreement with Riverside Marina Management, aka
Mike Childers and staff. The Agreement is revised from previous Agreements to increase management
fee from $ 65,000 to$ 75,000, to increase bonus opportunity which is one-third net operating revenues
from $40,000 to$ 80,000( one-third net revenues would have been$ 67, 002 this past year when the
bonus was capped at$ 40,000), and decrease line item in budget for Vehicle Expense from $17, 200 to
8, 000.
Mike Childers has been HarborMaster four years now, beginning in 2011, and we have appreciated his
hands-on construction and maintenance operations and attention to the Marina' s finances and longterm sustainability. At times he has had to address customers who had below-market costs for slip
rentals arranged by the prior HarborMaster, and they have objected to this. Changes to the Agreement
will pay a fair management fee for the 24- hour/ 7- days week services provided during the boating
season, limit the Marina' s costs for vehicle purchase and operation, and incentivize activities to keep
and attract boating customers at EastPort.
RECOMMENDATIOM:
Approve the
attached
Marina Management Agreement.

Lease of Mini Excavator to Replace EastPort Marina Dredge Machinery
Attached is an offer for a Three- Year Lease of an Altorfer Cat 305. 5E CR Excavator to replace broken and
unrepairable machinery on the dredge boat that included the cab/ boom/ clamshell assembly. The ballbearing turret that attached this assembly to the dredge boat cannot be repaired, and HarborMaster
Mike Childers has researched and found that an anchored, mini- excavator will serve needed purposes
better than the prior assembly.
A Kubota, Volvo and CAT mini- excavator have been researched and compared for lease period
operational costs, purchase price, warranty and resale of the equipment at the end of three-year lease.
The CAT machine is recommended with a municipal discount and a " let' s put CAT products in our own
backyard" incentive that lowers the sale price to that of the Kubota and Volva, and the CAT machine has
a longer warranty and all annual maintenance is offered at no additional cost.
A 36- month lease is presented that will cost$ 13, 200/ year, which is within the Marina' s ability to include
as part of the annual budget. In the recent past the Marina has replaced its gasoline pumps and
dispensers, rebuilt forklifts and the hydraulic trailer, etc.

Adding a Subclass 2 Beer Garden License to the Liquor Code
and Changing the Number of Class D Liquor Licenses
DISCUSSION: The new restaurant at the EastPort Marina has a unique
layout that includes a beer garden. The beer garden provisions of the City
Liquor Code provide restrictions on beer gardens that do not make sense for
this location. Some of those provisions include that the beer garden be
attached to the building itself and only allow for egress and not ingress from
the portion of the beer garden that is not attached to the building. The
proposed changes would add a Subclass 2 classification that would be
applicable only to this location and that would allow for a detached beer
garden on the adjacent deck that still ensures safeguards for alcohol
consumption and safeguards in cases of emergency. The proposed change
allows for five feet between the building and beer garden.
It is also necessary to change the number of Class D (Restaurant) liquor
licenses at various times throughout the year. At this time, it is necessary to
increase the number of Class D liquor licenses from 25 to 26.
RECOMMENDATION: To approve the recommended amendments to the City
Code adding a Subclass 2 Beer Garden License to the Liquor Code and
approving an increase of Class D liquor licenses limit to 26.

AN ORDINANCE ADDING NEW SUBCLASS LICENSE TO
LIQUOR CODE FOR BEER GARDENS AT EASTPORT MARINA
AND CHANGING THE NUMBER OF CLASS D LIQUOR LICENSES AUTHORIZED
TO BE ISSUED WITHIN THE CITY OF EAST PEORIA, ILLINOIS
WHEREAS, the Eastport Marina complex includes a small cantina area that serves
marina patrons and is under private ownership; and
WHEREAS, due to the unique qualities of the Eastport Marina complex and the
layout of the outdoor deck of Eastport Marina building, a new subclass license for beer
gardens is being established to accommodate the cantina’s unique setting at the Eastport
Marina while maintaining the numerous safeguards implemented for beer garden
settings; and
WHEREAS, the City Council hereby finds that the creation of this new subclass of
liquor license for marina beer gardens is in the best interests of the City while enhancing
the viability of the cantina operation and the services available for patrons of the Eastport
Marina;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
EAST PEORIA, TAZEWELL COUNTY, ILLINOIS, THAT:
Section 1. Title 3, Chapter 3, Section 3.14(n) and (o) of the City Code (the Liquor
Code) of the City of East Peoria is hereby amended and added as follows (additions are
indicated by underline; deletions by strikeout):
3-3-1.4. Licenses; classifications.
Licenses to sell alcoholic liquor at retail shall be of the following classes:
(n)
In addition to the classes of license established in previous
subsections, a subclass 1 license may be issued by the Liquor
Control Commission on any terms and conditions to be imposed for
the safety of the citizens of East Peoria including without limitation
the following:
1.
Subclass 1. A subclass 1 license may be approved only for
holders of class A, C, D, E, V or RB licenses, except a class
D license located within one hundred fifty (150) feet of a public
marina. The subclass 1 license, if approved, permits the retail
sale of alcoholic beverages or, for a class E license holder the
sale of beer and wine only, in a Beer Garden as defined under
3-3-1.1. Access to the Beer Garden or outdoor area shall be
permitted only from the interior of the licensed premises. The
annual fee shall be as specified in section 3-3-1.5. The
application fee shall be as specified in section 3-3-1.8. Any
application for a subclass 1 (Beer Garden) license must first
be referred to the Director of Planning and Community
Development to verify compliance with zoning regulations and
the Director of Buildings and Inspections to verify compliance
with building codes. The application shall include a scale
drawing of the proposed outdoor facility which addresses and
details the following:
a.
The seating area must be contained within a
permanent fence or other suitable barrier measuring at
least four feet high and which defines the seating area
and sets that area apart from the surrounding property.
The fence or barrier shall prevent passage of alcoholic
liquor from locations within the beer garden to locations
outside the beer garden and shall restrict noise to the
approved area and to provide access to the area only
from the interior of the licensed premises.
b.
The square footage of the proposed beer garden
cannot exceed the square footage of the existing
structure.
c.
The proposed beer garden’s appearance should be
consistent with the character of the existing structure.
d.
The existing structure must be in compliance with all
applicable City codes prior to approval of the Subclass
1 license.
e.
The proposed beer garden must contain a reasonably
substantial structure across which alcoholic liquor shall
be served which shall afford bartenders reasonable
protection from patrons, unless the outdoor facility is
serviced directly by the indoor licensed premises.
f.
The proposed beer garden must contain the locations
of at least two exits from the area, only one of which
shall be through a building or, in the case of a patio,
deck, open porch, balcony or rooftop facility, such exits
as are required by the City fire codes. Except in the
case of an emergency, patrons must enter and exit the
beer garden only through the licensed establishment to
which it is attached.
2
g.
Service of alcoholic liquor to patrons in the outdoor
location shall cease at least 45 minutes before the time
for the cessation of service in section 3-3-4.2 for the
particular class of license.
2.
The subclass 1 license shall not be issued for any premises
located in the City, which is zoned as a Residential District or
zoned as B-1 pursuant to the Zoning Code of the City of East
Peoria.
3.
The subclass 1 license shall not be issued to the holder of
class C, D, E or RB licenses for any premises that is located
within 300 feet of any building or structure designed for or
devoted to or being used for any residential use except under
the following exceptions:
a.
Provided that for a class D licensed premises located
within 150 feet of a public marina, this distance shall be
zero feet.
b.
A one year probationary subclass 1 license may be
issued to the holder of a license pursuant to the
provisions of subsection 10 with respect to licensed
premises located within 300 feet of any building or
structure designed for or devoted to or being used for
any residential use. A subclass 1 license issued under
authority of this section for premises located within 300
feet of any building or structure designed for or devoted
to or being used for any residential use may be revoked
after its issuance if the Liquor Control Commission
finds that operation of the outdoor facility adversely
affects the use and enjoyment of any such residential
use established prior to the first issuance of a
probationary subclass 1 license for the licensed
premises.
4.
The subclass 1 license shall not be issued to the holder of a
class V license for any premises that is located within 100 feet
of any building or structure designed for or devoted to or being
used for any residential use.
5.
The subclass 1 license shall not be issued to the holder of a
class A license for any premises that is located within 300 feet
of any building or structure designed for or devoted to or being
used for any residential use. However, this limitation
3
applicable to class A licenses shall not prohibit a class A
licensee from obtaining a subclass 1 license based upon the
premises being located within 300 feet of a residential use
when the residential use or uses are located on the same
parcel of land as the licensed premises and the residential
properties are owned and controlled by the owner of the
parcel of land where the licensed premises is located and
where the owner of the land consents to the issuance of the
subclass 1 license.
6.
The subclass 1 license shall not, however, for any class of
license, be issued to any premises that does not comply with
the minimum distance requirement contained in sections 3-31.7 or 3-3-1.12 of this section even if the licensed premises is
not presently in compliance with those sections. If a subclass
1 license is granted to any premises within 700 feet of
residentially zoned property, no live entertainment shall be
permitted outside except live music performed without
electronic amplification and by no more than two
instrumentalists plus a vocalist but only if the premises has
otherwise obtained all licenses required under this code.
7.
For the purpose of measuring the minimum distance required
for a class V license, said measurement shall be made from
the nearest part of the outdoor premises to the nearest part of
the adjacent building used for residential uses. For all other
classes, the measurement shall be made as provided in
section 3-4.23 of this chapter.
8.
At no time shall a licensee permit any person to consume
alcoholic liquor at any place other than in the licensed
premises or within the entirely enclosed outdoor area
designated as a Beer Garden.
9.
It shall be understood that any violation of state law or any
violation under the City Code may be grounds to revoke or
suspend both the license and any subclass license then held
by the licensee.
10.
Any subclass 1 license used pursuant to this section 3-31.4(n) must first be issued as a one-year probationary
subclass 1 license under the terms and conditions of this
subsection. A probationary subclass 1 license allows the sale
of alcoholic beverages from an outdoor facility which complies
with the limitations imposed by this section. A probationary
subclass 1 license automatically expires on the first
4
anniversary of its issuance and may not be renewed;
however, at any time during the one-year probationary period,
the Liquor Control Commission has the authority to revoke the
probationary subclass 1 license if it determines that the
outdoor facility has adversely affected the use and enjoyment
of (1) any immediately adjacent property to the licensed
premises, or (2) any building or structure designed for or
devoted to or being used for any residential use located within
500 feet of the licensed premises. If, upon the expiration of a
probationary subclass 1 license, the Liquor Control
Commission finds that alcoholic beverages were regularly
sold from and consumed within the authorized outdoor facility
and that such sale and consumption did not adversely affect
the use and enjoyment of (1) any immediately adjacent
property to the licensed premises, or (2) any residentially used
property located within 500 feet of the licensed premises, then
the Liquor Control Commissioner may, in its sole discretion,
issue a non-probationary subclass 1 license with respect to
the licensed premises.
(o)
In addition to the classes of license established in previous
subsections, a subclass 2 license may be issued by the liquor control
commission on any terms and conditions to be imposed for the safety
of the citizens of East Peoria including without limitation the following:
(1)
Subclass 2. A subclass 2 license may be approved only for
holders of class D license located within one-hundred fifty
(150) feet of a public marina. The subclass 2 license, if
approved, permits the retail sale of alcoholic beverages in a
beer garden as defined under 3-3-1.1. The annual fee shall
be as specified in section 3-3-1.5. The application fee shall be
as specified in section 3-3-1.8. Any application for a subclass
2 (beer garden) license must first be referred to the director of
planning and community development to verify compliance
with zoning regulations and the director of buildings and
inspections to verify compliance with building codes. The
application shall include a scale drawing of the proposed
outdoor facility which addresses and details the following:
a.
The seating area must be contained within a
permanent fence or other suitable barrier measuring at
least four (4) feet high and which defines the seating
area and sets that area apart from the surrounding
property. The fence or barrier shall prevent passage of
alcoholic liquor from locations within the beer garden to
5
locations outside the beer garden and shall restrict
noise to the approved area.
b.
The square footage of the proposed beer garden
cannot exceed the square footage of the existing
structure. At least one side of the beer garden must be

premises to the fence or barrier enclosing the beer
garden, with the main entryway to the beer garden
being no more 12 feet from an entryway into the
licensed premises. The corridor between the main
entryway of the beer garden and the closest entryway
to the licensed premises must be open and
unobstructed.
c.
The proposed beer garden's appearance should be
consistent with the character of the existing structure.
d.
The existing structure must be in compliance with all
applicable city codes prior to approval of the subclass
2 license.
e.
The proposed beer garden must contain a reasonably
substantial structure across which alcoholic liquor shall

of at least two (2) exits from the area in a manner as

(6)
Any subclass 2 license used pursuant to this subsection 3-31.4(o) must first be issued as a one-year probationary
subclass 2 license under the terms and conditions of this
subsection. A probationary subclass 2 license allows the sale
of alcoholic beverages from an outdoor facility which complies
with the limitations imposed by this section. A probationary
subclass 2 license automatically expires on the first
anniversary of its issuance and may not be renewed;
however, at any time during the one-year probationary period,
the liquor control commission has the authority to revoke the
probationary subclass 2 license if it determines that the
outdoor facility has adversely affected the use and enjoyment
of: (1) any immediately adjacent property to the licensed
premises; or (2) any building or structure designed for or
devoted to or being used for any residential use located within
five hundred (500) feet of the licensed premises. If, upon the
expiration of a probationary subclass 2 license, the liquor
control commission finds that alcoholic beverages were
regularly sold from and consumed within the authorized
outdoor facility and that such sale and consumption did not
adversely affect the use and enjoyment of: (1) any
immediately adjacent property to the licensed premises; or (2)
any residentially used property located within five hundred
(500) feet of the licensed premises, then the liquor control
commission may, in its sole discretion, issue a non-
7
probationary subclass 2 license with respect to the licensed
premises.

underline; deletions by strikeout):
3-3-1.8. Investigation; investigation fee; approval; examination of
applicant.
(a) All applications for licenses under this chapter shall be presented
to the local liquor control commission and shall be accompanied by an
investigation fee in the sum of two hundred fifty dollars ($250.00). All
applications for a subclass 1 or 2 license shall be presented to the local
liquor control commission and shall be accompanied by an additional nonrefundable investigation fee in the sum of fifty dollars ($50.00). In addition
to the fees specified herein, each applicant, shareholder, manager, or other

entity for criminal history, fingerprint, or background investigation, as those
charges are from time to time established. Every application shall be
investigated by the local liquor control commission to its satisfaction, and it
shall, within a reasonable time, either approve or reject said application.
Upon the approval of such application and the certificate of bond specified
in section 3-3-1.9, and upon the payment of the license fee in the amount
specified In section 3-3-1.5, the local liquor control commissioner shall
designate written approval and direct the city clerk to issue a license or a

clerk.
(b) At any time during the pendency of an application, the local liquor
control commission shall have the right to compel the applicant to submit to
any examination and to produce any books and records, which, in the
judgment of the local liquor control commission, are material to the
determination of whether the applicant is qualified to receive a license or a
subclass license under the provisions of this chapter, or whether the
premises sought to be licensed are suitable for such purposes. The local
liquor control commission shall also have the right to require the applicant
to answer any charges made in any objection to the issuance of the license
by the liquor control commissioner, chief of police, or the city attorney. The
failure of any applicant to appear at the time and place fixed by the local
liquor control commission for his examination or to produce books and
records requested, unless for good cause shown, shall be deemed to be an
admission that the applicant is not qualified to receive a license.

respective designees may at any reasonable time inspect the licensed
9
premises for compliance with applicable provisions of the East Peoria City
Code.
(d) Applications for licenses or subclass licenses shall be considered
in the order in which they are presented to the local liquor control
commission. Once an application has been rejected by the local liquor
control commission for any reason, including the lack of availability of a
license, the applicant shall be ineligible for further consideration unless and
until the applicant submits a new application to the local liquor control
commission.
(e) At any time when a business conducted by a manager
designates a new or additional manager, the new or additional manager
must submit an application for approval to the City on the forms designated.
Said application shall be accompanied by an investigation fee in the sum of
fifty dollars ($50.00). Said person shall not perform the duties of manager
