PUBLIC FORUM
Public Forum was opened at 6:02 p.m.
Diane Selmer, Oswego resident, addressed the Board concerning the proposed east side Park-N-Ride
location at Farmington Lakes Drive. She is concerned about the services effect on traffic. She
requested a traffic study be completed. Additionally inquired whether citizens will be contacted; how
tax payers money is being utilized; how this service will affect the tax bills, and requested a survey be
sent to the subdivisions.
There was no one else who requested to speak; the Public Forum was closed at 6:04 p.m.
FY14 ANNUAL AUDIT REPORT AND PRESENTATION
Director Horton presented the audit report to the Board. Director Horton noted there are three pages
of totals columns incorrect. Staff will replace and provide the corrected pages to the Board. Carrie
Dittman, representative for Sikich LLP, provided a summary of details relating to fiscal year ending
April 30, 2014. Sikich prepared a management letter as part of the audit. For FY2014, the auditors did
not discover any material weaknesses. They found one deficiency in water pumped to billed amount.
Auditor recommended the Village investigate the reason for the decrease. The Governmental
Accounting Standards Board(GASB) has issued a number of pronouncements impacting the Village
in the future. Specifically to Statement No. 67, 68, 69, 70 and 71. Future reports will reflect the
changes. All FY2013 comments are in the process of implementation.
The Village of Oswego received a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting
for Fiscal Year Ended April 30, 2013 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. This is the 11th
consecutive year the Village has received this award. This is a voluntary program with 307
municipalities out of 7,000 receiving this award annually.
The Board was provided a copy of the “Auditor’s Communication to the Board of Trustees”, in
addition to a copy of the “Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR). Carrie Dittman briefly
spoke about the Independent Auditor’s Report, the Management’s Discussion and Analysis, various
financial statements and the IMRF and Police Pension funds.
Board, staff and Auditor’s discussion focused on funds in reserves; Board can spend all reserves; a
different method of presentation going forward; how the Board can be confident in the report with the
incorrect schedules attached; how the incorrect schedules were omitted; schedules are not audited or
reviewed by Sikich; errors were a result of complicated bond refinancing; what mechanisms in place
to not have the error occur again; auditing firm conducts three phases: meet staff, initial risk
assessment, 2-3 weeks of testing which includes checking of bank balances, invoicing and receipts;
bank provides balances to the auditors; confirmation letters sent directly to outside agencies.
There was no further discussion.
CRITERIA FOR DETERMINING PUBLIC VERSUS PRIVATE STREETS
Director Zenner addressed the Board regarding private streets currently in the Village. The Village
has reviewed two requests to accept private streets in residential subdivisions as publicly maintained
and owned streets. Staff identified eight residential subdivisions: Ogden Falls, Pine Ridge Club,
Seasons at Southbury, Fairway Homes at Windcrest, Winding Water at Mill Race Creek, Kingsbrook
Crossing, Oswego Village Square and Farmington Lakes Apartments. There are no private streets in
commercial developments.
Private streets are proposed by developers in three situations:
• Gated communities often contain private streets to prevent the general public from utilizing
the streets
• Streets having specific or unique design aspects such as brick or cobble stone surfaces;
unique architectural elements such as wooden bridges
• Provide a reduced right-of-way, narrower road or reduced setbacks; typically found in multifamily residential projects where residents maintain through their monthly assessment
Policy Criteria
There should be specific criteria as to which private roads would be eligible for dedication and which
roads should remain private. Criteria could include the following:
• Residential Ownership
 Single-family and low density townhome developments
 Staff recommends private roads currently serving apartment/condos should remain
private; future roads serving apartment/condos should be considered private unless
all requirements of the Subdivision Development and Control Regulations are met
• Curb and Gutter
 Some private roads do not have a standard curb and gutter
 Staff recommends private roads without curbs should remain private unless curbs are
added
• Ownership/Management
 Farmington Lakes Apartments- roads and all units currently owned and operated by a
commercial developer
 Staff recommends private roads owned and operated by a commercial developer
should remain private. Roads owned and operated by a Homeowners Association
should be eligible to become publicly owned unless located within a gated
community
• Usage of the Road
 If the road is intended to be used by the public to get from point “A” to “B”
 Road used as a public access point to a property versus a road/drive/alley intended
for individual homeowner to access their property
 Staff recommends private roads providing access to through traffic beyond the
subdivision should be eligible to become publicly owned
Staff provided a chart to show how each street would be classified. Staff recommended establishing
criteria to determine if a private road is eligible to become a private road. Also recommends criteria
be utilized to determine if roads in new subdivisions should be public or private streets. Some private
streets contain dedicated parking spaces. These spaces should remain private. The annual
maintenance costs to maintain the eligible private roads would be $28,281 annually. The costs to
replace the potential public roads is estimated to be $1,486,065. It is assumed no eligible roads
identified will require replacement. If a subdivision wishes to convert an eligible private street to a
publically maintained road, the Homeowners Association will need to formally submit a request to
the Village Board. The Association will need to process the legal documentation and plats to the
Village to review and process prior to dedicating the roads.
Board and staff discussion focused on Tuscany Station apartments could be considered private; curbs
would need to be put in before Village would take over the roads; giving developer opportunity to
revise if subdivision is not built-out; using criteria for new developments going forward; taking
harder line on future developments; be more clear on what the Board wants; Village is often asked for
private streets; having developers address the Board before developing; adding language to the
Subdivision and Regulation guidelines; Ogden Falls Courts and whether they remain private; courts
do not fit the criteria as they are adjacent to commercial property; whether HOA or homeowners
would pay for private courts; how the roads will be plowed since most are smaller roads; better
definition of alleys; staff recommended courts remain private; whether an SSA can be placed on a
handful of properties.
There was no further discussion.
PARK-N-RIDE SURVEY RESULTS AND PROPOSAL TO DIVIDE EXISTING SERVICE
INTO EAST SIDE AND WEST SIDE ROUTES
Administrator Jones addressed the Board regarding the consideration to divide Kendall Area Transit
(KAT) services between east and west-side service locations. The service shuttles commuters from
Oswego to the Aurora Transportation Center. The current KAT agreement expires in June 2015. The
ridership has had significant fluctuations. The Village may have reached the maximum market for
ridership under the current system. To foster sustainability of the service, staff began considering new
options to increase ridership and identifying a new market. The last plate survey indicated 35% of
users were from Oswego. Staff sought resident input as to whether they would utilize a park & ride
program in the eastern portion of Oswego near Route 30 and Douglas. The current results of the
survey show approximately 188 individuals (24/route) are likely to utilize the east side bus route.
Survey results are due by October 15th.
Based on KAT analysis, two routes (one bus) from the west side could be removed and create three
routes on the east side resulting in three routes from each location. The removal of routes from the
east side would have potential to reduce ridership at the location if riders determine they cannot adjust
their trip times. Further research resulted in potential new location at Farmington Lakes Drive. The
location offers the potential for on-street parking and a bus staging area. The new location would have
minimal neighborhood impacts. KAT evaluated the location and indicated it would work. Minor
signage and striping would be necessary to begin service from this location. The existing KAT
contract would accommodate the change without additional funding requirements. Additional revenue
would result from ridership increases above the current level reducing operational subsidy of the
service.
Board and staff discussion focused on whether the Board’s philosophy has changed; the need to
discuss as part of the budget process; service will always be a subsidy; will never be a breakeven; not
a revenue generator; survey showed location on Route 30 as not ideal; run risk of losing ridership on
west side; allowing residents time to respond; parking situation better at the Aurora station; needing
to see significant increase to extend service; 180 days needed to cancel service agreement; busses are
not used for anything other than park & ride; need to define the need for; would like to see parking lot
for the east side location; referring to staff’s judgment; trying the service until June; performing a
traffic study and patterns in the Farmington Lakes area. Staff directed to move forward with east side
location.
There was no further discussion.

Electronics Waste Recycling- the market no longer allows no-cost services for electronic waste due to
the cost of recycling CRT televisions. The Village issued a joint RFP with Yorkville and
Montgomery for electronics recycling. New Life Electronics Recycling, Inc. was both the lowest
bidder and local vendor. The proposed pricing is $80 per ton of CRT televisions. Newer flat screen
televisions and other recyclable material would not be subject to this fee. Yorkville is pursuing a
separate contract and Montgomery opted to not award a contract from the RFP. The anticipated cost
to the Village would be approximately $10,000 annually. The Village may want to consider
additional restrictions to television recycling such as proof of residency or limit of three televisions
per drop-off to reduce the cost. Board and staff discussion focused on why Montgomery is not
participating; against state regulations in accepting money for recycling; whether the regulations preempts home rule; whether Best Buy offers a television return program; staff expecting recycling of
televisions to spike.

MEMORANDUM
To:
Village President and Board of Trustees
CC:
Village Administrator, Village Attorney and Department Heads
From:
Captain Jeff Burgner
Date:
October 13, 2014
Agenda:
October 21, 2014 Regular Board Meeting
Subject:
Police Department Command Structure Reorganization
Purpose
Provide the Village Board with a draft ordinance for review and approval for the reorganization of the
command structure within the police department.
Background
Board Action Previously Taken:
Date
September 16, 2014
Action
Board was provided a draft ordinance regarding the
creation of the rank of Deputy Chief and Commander
within the police department. This was presented at the
Committee of the Whole meeting on September 16,
2014.
Discussion
The purpose of this memorandum is to seek approval of the proposed draft ordinance regarding the
creation of an appointed Deputy Chief and Commander rank within the Oswego Police Department. The
Village Board was given a presentation on September 16, 2014 regarding the proposed ordinance and
what the police department structure would be if approved. Questions were answered regarding the
proposed ordinance and structure changes. Currently there are no outstanding questions to be answered
regarding the proposal
Recommendation
It is recommended to approve the attached draft ordinance and allow for the organizational change to take
effect after Chief Baird retires on December 7, 2014. It is recommended that Captain Sikora and Captain
Jensen be sworn in as Deputy Chiefs of Police at the December 16, 2014 Village Board meeting. The
Commander appointment will come from the current Sergeant pool. It is recommended that the selected
sergeant be appointed to Commander at the January 6, 2015 Village Board meeting. There should be a
final sergeant promotional eligibility list approved by the Oswego Board of Police Commissioners by
January 6, 2015. It is recommended to promote a Sergeant from that list to fill the vacancy from the
Commander promotion at the Village Board meeting on January 6, 2014. If the list is not finalized by
January 6, 2015 then it would be recommended to promote a Sergeant at the first Village Board meeting
after the eligibility list is posted.
Strategic Planning Objective
1.4.4 - Recognize employee contributions and foster a positive work environment
Task 3 - Communication is a recurring theme in maintaining employee satisfaction: Identify and
establish opportunities for more open communication between department heads and employees.
This proposal will work towards this objective in the Village Strategic plan as we would be addressing a
communication deficiency identified by our night shift staff.

CC:
Village Administrator
FROM:
Mark G. Horton, CPFO, Finance Director
DATE:
September 25, 2014
AGENDA:
October 21, 2014 Committee of the Whole Meeting
SUBJECT:
Police Pension Funding Policy promulgated by Governmental Accounting
Standards Board (GASB) Statements #67 and #68
Purpose
Inform the Village Board on the changes in accounting and financial reporting for pension plans.
Discuss the Police Pension Fund Funding Policy which is recommended to be put in place to
guide the decisions made in determining the annual amount to contribute to the Police Pension
Fund.
Background
Current financial reporting for pension funds follows GASB Statements No. 25 and No. 27 which
required employers to disclose information on plan assets and liabilities in the financial reports.
The standards also required the disclosure of the actuarially determined annual required
contribution (ARC) and the percentage of the ARC actually contributed. These disclosures
provided for a close link between accounting and funding measures for pension funds. These
disclosures were reported in the annual audit within the Notes disclosure section and Required
Supplemental Information section of the audit report.
Discussion
In 2013, GASB released two new statements (Statement 67, Financial Reporting for Pension
Plans and Statement 68, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pensions) that will become
effective for our fiscal years ending April 30, 2015 and 2016. These two standards focus on
accounting measurements of pension liabilities and not on how employers fund the cost of
benefits or calculate the ARC. The Unfunded Pension Liability will also now be reported on the
face of the financial statements versus being just disclosed in previous statements.
Since the new statements focus on how the accounting for pension liabilities and not the costs of
benefits or on the calculation of the ARC, it is suggested local governments document how the
ARC will be determined. The creation of a Funding Policy will provide the guidance for making
decisions on the annual contribution amount.
The attached Police Pension Funding Policy documents how the Village currently determines the
ARC or annual funding for the pension fund. The policy incorporates the recommendations from
the Center for State and Local Government Excellence which convened a Pension Funding Task
Force made up of many national and state organizations.

Recommendation
Staff recommends moving forward with the Policy for Village Board adoption at the next Village
Board meeting on October 21, 2014.

and needs.

Resolution 14 – R –

EXHIBIT A
VILLAGE OF OSWEGO
POLICE PENSION FUNDING POLICY
Adopted October 21, 2014
Applicability
This policy applies to the calculation of the Village of Oswego’s “annual required contribution” (ARC) to the
Village of Oswego Police Pension Fund, a police pension trust fund organized under Article III of the Illinois
Pension Code.
Background
The financial objective of a defined benefit pension plan is to fund the long-term cost of benefits provided to the
plan participants. In order to assure that the plan is financially sustainable, the plan should accumulate adequate
resources in a systematic and disciplined manner over the active service life of benefitting employees. This
funding policy outlines the method the Village will utilize to determine it’s actuarially determined contribution to
the Village of Oswego Police Pension Fund to fund the long-term cost of benefits to the plan participants and
annuitants.
This funding policy was developed according to the guidelines for state and local governments set by the Pension
Funding Task Force convened by the Center for State and Local Government Excellence. The guidelines set by
this task force outline the following objectives for pension funding policy:
•
•
•
•
•
Actuarially Determined Contributions. A pension funding plan should be based upon an actuarially
determined annual required contribution (ARC) that incorporates both the cost of benefits in the current
year and the amortization of the plan’s unfunded actuarial accrued liability.
Funding Discipline. A commitment to make timely, actuarially determined contributions to the
retirement system is needed to ensure that sufficient assets are available for all current and future retirees.
Intergenerational equity. Annual contributions should be reasonably related to the expected and actual
cost of each year of service so that the cost of employee benefits is paid by the generation of taxpayers
who receives services from those employees.
Contributions as a stable percentage of payroll. Contributions should be managed so that employer
costs remain consistent as a percentage of payroll over time.
Accountability and transparency. Clear reporting of pension funding should include an assessment of
whether, how, and when the plan sponsor will ensure sufficient assets are available for all current and
future retirees.
Police Pension Funding Policy
Village Annual Required Contribution (ARC)
The Village will determine its ARC to the Village of Oswego Police Pension Fund using the following principles:
a. The ARC will be calculated by an enrolled actuary hired and paid for by the Village.
b. The ARC will include the normal cost for current service and amortization to collect or refund any
under/over funded amount.
c. The normal cost will be calculated using the entry age normal level of percentage of payroll actuarial cost
method using the following assumptions:
Page 1
EXHIBIT A
i.
ii.
iii.
The investment rate of return assumption will be 7.00% per year.
The salary increase assumption will be 5.50% per year.
Non-economic assumptions, such as rates of separation, disability, retirement, mortality, etc.,
shall be determined by Village management in consultation with the actuary to reflect current
experience.
d. The difference between the accrued liability and actuarial value of assets will be amortized to achieve
100% funding by the end of calendar year 2033 (a 40 year closed period that began in 1993) based upon a
level percentage of payroll.
e. Actuarial assets will be determined using market valuation and/or a five year average market value.
The Village will make its actuarially determined contribution to the Village of Oswego Police Pension Fund
monthly within two weeks after the receipt of property tax distributions from the Kendall County Treasurer.
Transparency and Reporting
Funding of the Village of Oswego Police Pension Fund should be transparent to vested parties including plan
participants, annuitants, the Village of Oswego Police Pension Fund Board, the Village Board, and Village of
Oswego residents. In order to achieve this transparency, the following information shall be distributed:
a. A copy of the annual actuarial valuation for the Village of Oswego Police Pension Fund shall be made
available to the Village Board and the Police Pension Fund Board. The annual actuarial report will be
reviewed with the Village of Oswego Board and the Police Pension Board.
b. The Village’s Comprehensive Annual Financial Report shall be published on its website. This report
includes information on the Village’s annual contribution to the Village of Oswego Police Pension Fund,
and funded status of the Village of Oswego Police Pension Fund.
c. Each year, the Village Board shall approve the Village’s annual contribution to the Village of Oswego
Police Pension Fund in conjunction with the adoption of the annual property tax levy.
d. The Village’s annual operating budget shall include the Village’s contribution to the Village of Oswego
Police Pension Fund shown as an expenditure of the General Fund within the Police department budget.
The budget will have a matching revenue line item in the Police Pension Fund. The budget document
shall be published on the Village website and made available for public inspection at Village Hall in the
Finance Department.
Review of Funding Policy
Funding a defined benefit pension plan requires a long-term horizon. Assumptions and inputs into the policy
should focus on long-term trends, not year-to-year shifts in the economic or non-economic environments.
Generally, assumptions or inputs should be evaluated and changed if long-term economic or noneconomic inputs
have fundamentally changed or are no longer reasonable. As such, the Village will review this policy at least
every three years to determine if changes to this policy are needed to ensure adequate resources are being
accumulated in the Village of Oswego Police Pension Fund. The Village reserves the right to make changes to
this policy at any time if it is deemed appropriate.

Variance – Accessory building separation from primary structure
Project #885.14
Purpose:
To review a request for a variance to permit a reduction in the separation between a primary structure
(single family home) and accessory structure (swimming pool) at 111 Spencer Lane.
Background:
The applicant is requesting approval of a variance to Section 10.01F(3) of the Zoning Ordinance,
which requires a 10 foot separation between principal structures on a zoning lot, and accessory
structures. The proposal is to reduce the separation distance to 6 feet. The property is zoned as R-2
Single Family Residence District and is improved with a single family home. See attached Zoning
Board of Appeals staff report for further details.
Discussion:
The ZBA reviewed the project on October 9, 2014. The applicant was in attendance and the staff report
was presented. The Board discussed the requested variance. Concerns were raised as to the location of
stairs extending from an upper level outdoor deck, and the location of the landing in relation to the
proposed swimming pool. It was suggested and agreed that through the building permit phase the
location of the stair landing would be evaluated and adjusted for safety purposes. There was no public
testimony.
By a vote of 7 ayes and one abstention, the Plan Commission recommended approval of the request.

AN ORDINANCE GRANTING
A VARIANCE FOR ACCESSORY STRUCTURE SEPARATION FROM PRIMARY
STRUCTURE AT 111 SPENCER LANE
IN THE VILLAGE OF OSWEGO, KENDALL COUNTY, ILLINOIS
(111 Spencer Lane – Variance)
WHEREAS, the Village of Oswego (“Village”) has a population of more than 25,000 and is
therefore a “Home Rule Unit” under the 1970 Illinois Constitution; and
WHEREAS, the Illinois Constitution of 1970 provides that a Home Rule Unit may exercise any
power and perform any function pertaining to its government and affairs, including but not limited to the
power to regulate for the protection of the public health, safety, morals and welfare; to license, to tax; and
to incur debt; and
WHEREAS, the Village has in full force and effect a codified set of those ordinances of the
Village which are of a general and permanent nature, which said codified set is known and designated as
the Village Code of the Village of Oswego, as amended; and
WHEREAS, Theresa and Christos Drossos have filed an application for a variance to Section
10.01F(3) to reduce the separation distance between the primary structure and an accessory structure
(swimming pool) from 10’ to 6’; and
WHEREAS, the subject property is commonly known as 111 Spencer Lane, zoned R-2 Single
Family Residence District, and is currently improved with a single family home; and
WHEREAS, a Public Hearing was held on October 9, 2014 by the Zoning Board of Appeals to
consider the variance; and
WHEREAS, the President and Board of Trustees make the following findings of fact:
1. The proposed building or use at the particular location requested is necessary or desirable to provide a
service or a facility which is in the best interest of the public convenience and will contribute to the
general welfare of the neighborhood or community. The variation proposed is to reduce the setback
of the pool from the dwelling from 10’ to a 6’ configuration which will give the space needed to keep
it away from the Drainage and Utility Easement.
2. The proposed building or use will not have a substantial or undue adverse effect upon adjacent
property, the character of the neighborhood, traffic conditions, utility facilities and other matter
affecting the public health, safety and general welfare. The configuration of the Drainage and Utility
Easement on the property prohibits having a functional area to place the pool in the yard.
Ordinance No. 14 -- __
Page 2
3. The proposed building or use will be designed, arranged and operated so as to permit the development
and use of neighboring property in accordance with the applicable district regulations. The
configuration of the Drainage and Utility Easement is unique to this lot. It is not typical in terms of
the use of the backyard.
4. The proposed building or use has been considered in relation to the goals and objectives of the
Official Plan of the Village. Due to the pool location in the rear yard it would not injure any other
property or property value. The location of the swimming pool follows neighborhood guidelines set
by the development/association regarding pools and proper guidelines will be followed regarding
putting in an in-ground swimming pool.
5. There shall be reasonable assurance that the proposed building or use will be completed and
maintained in a timely manner, if authorized. The intent of the variance is that there is enough
separation between structures, and keeping the swimming pool structure away from the Drainage and
Utility Easement. The swimming pool will be constructed in a timely manner as weather permits.
and find it appropriate to grant the variance presented to the Zoning Board of Appeals.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE VILLAGE PRESIDENT AND BOARD
OF TRUSTEES OF THE VILLAGE OF OSWEGO, KENDALL COUNTY, ILLINOIS, as follows:
Section 1: That the recitals set forth above are incorporated here by reference, and the application
for a variance for accessory structure separation from primary structure at 111 Spencer Lane is approved.
The property is legally described on Exhibit “A” and indicated on an accurate map identified as Exhibit
“B.”
Section 2: If any section, paragraph, subdivision, clause, sentence or provision of this Ordinance
shall be adjudged by any Court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, such judgment shall not affect,
impair, invalidate or nullify the remainder thereof, which remainder shall remain and continue in full
force and effect.
Section 3: All ordinances or parts of ordinances in conflict herewith are hereby repealed to the
extent of such conflict.
Section 4: This Ordinance shall be in full force and effect immediately upon its passage and
approval. Publication in pamphlet form is hereby authorized, as provided by law.

TO:
Chairman and Zoning Board of Appeals
FROM:
Karen Zilly, Planner
SUBJECT:
Staff Report for the October 9, 2014 Zoning Board of Appeals
111 Spencer Lane
Variance – Accessory building separation from primary structure
Project #885.14
Applicant
Theresa and Chris Drossos, owner
Petition
The applicant is requesting approval of a variance to Section 10.01F(3) of the Zoning Ordinance,
which requires a 10 foot separation between principal structures on a zoning lot, and accessory
structures.
Controlling Agreements
None.
Existing Zoning, Land Use and Location
The property is located at 111 Spencer Lane, in the Deerpath Trails development. The property
is zoned as R-2 Single Family Residence District and is currently improved with a single-family
home.
Surrounding Zoning and Land Uses
North: R-2 Single Family Residence District
South: R-2 Single Family Residence District
East: R-2 Single Family Residence District
West: R-2 Single Family Residence District
Relationship to Village Comprehensive Plan
The proposed use and zoning of the property is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan’s
designation of the area as “Residential”.
Donation Requirements
None.
111 Spencer Lane
Variance – Accessory Building separation from principal structure
Project #885.14
September 24, 2014
Page 2
Staff Analysis
The applicant wishes to construct an in-ground pool in the back yard of the property. The
requested action is a variance to allow the separation between the pool and the home – at its
closest point – to be reduced from 10 feet to 6 feet.
After reviewing the “Standards for a Variation”, staff is of opinion that the request may not meet
the strictest interpretation of all five standards. However, the subject property is a unique lot in
that although it is deeper than adjacent lots in the neighborhood, over two-thirds of the backyard
is encumbered with a drainage and utility easement as well as a stormwater management
easement. This limits flexibility in the location of the pool.
Staff believes that the requested location of the swimming pool will not diminish the intent of the
zoning ordinance, and will not impede adequate light, pure air, privacy and/or convenience of
access to the principal structure. Further, at the proposed location, there will continue to be
adequate access between the pool and house.
Staff Comment
Staff is presenting this request to the Zoning Board of Appeals for review and to receive
comments from the public hearing.
Standards for a Variation
See attached.
Recommendation
Staff recommends the ZBA accept the findings of fact for the standards for a variation and
recommends approval of the variations to Section 10.01F(3) of the Zoning Ordinance at
111 Spencer Lane.

SUBJECT:
Minor Amendment to the Final PUD (Oswego Commons)
2810 Route 34, Portillo’s Hot Dogs, LLC
Project #886.14
Purpose:
To review a request for a minor amendment to the Portillo’s restaurant Final PUD to allow a
modification to the drive-thru lane configuration.
Background:
Board Action Previously Taken:
Date
January 28, 2002
March 20, 2006
Action
Approved Final Plat by Ordinance #02-05
Approved outdoor seating by Ordinance #06-34.
The 1.76 acre property is located at 2810 Route 34 in the Oswego Commons development, is
zoned B-3 Commercial Service and Wholesale District (special use for a PUD) and is currently
improved with a Portillo’s restaurant.
Discussion:
The applicant, Portillo’s Hot Dogs, LLC, is requesting a minor amendment to the approved Final
PUD to modify the drive-thru lane configuration in order to increase the vehicular stacking
capacity. Currently a single lane of vehicles stacks pending order placement. The proposal will
expand the drive-thru to two lanes for additional stacking capacity to the point of placing the
order, and then taper back to the one existing lane where vehicles will alternate to proceed for
payment and order pickup.
Existing signage will be removed for the construction phase and reinstalled. Although three
ornamental trees will be removed for the construction/modification, they will be replaced by 17
shrubs due to the resulting reduced size of the landscape island. Although the proposal reduces
the available parking, the site still exceeds minimum parking requirements (69 spaces required –
94 spaces provided).

Read of the Ordinance approving a minor amendment to the Final PUD for Portillo’s Hot
Dogs, LLC for a modification to the drive-thru lane configuration at 2810 Route 34. Staff
recommends waiving the second read of the ordinance and approving the minor

SUBJECT:

Steve Jones, Village Administrator
October 14, 2014
October 21, 2014 Committee of the Whole Meeting
General Obligation Refunding Bonds, Series 2014
Purpose
Discuss options for decreasing the annual debt service payments on outstanding Village issued
debt. Thomas J. Gavin, Managing Director, Public Finance Department, Robert W. Baird & Co.
will be present to answer any questions on the two options presented.
Background
In 2013, the Village issued the General Obligation Refunding Bonds, Series 2013 to advance
refund the specific maturities of three bond issues. The General Obligation Alternate Revenue
Source Bond Series 2006A; maturities 2021-2025; the General Obligation Alternate Revenue
Bond Series 2007A; maturities 2020-2027 and the General Obligation Alternate Revenue Series
2007B; maturities 2020-2027 were advanced refunded to save on interest costs.
Proposed General Obligation Refunding Bonds, Series 2014
Issue General Obligation Bonds of $4,015,000 par to advance refund
$3,965,000 of General Obligation Alternate Revenue Source Bond
Series 2006A, 2006B, 2007A, 2007B. Of the total par refunded,
$2,895,000 represents General Fund obligations and $1,070,000
represents Water and Sewer Fund obligations.
Discussion
Financial Details. Another refunding opportunity is available to advance refund some earlier
maturities of the same three debt issuances mentioned above and a fourth issuance, the General
Obligation Alternate Revenue Bonds Series 2006B. The 2018, 2019 and 2020 maturities from
the G.O. Bonds, 2006A and 2006B would be refunded along with the 2016, 2017, 2018 and
2019 maturities from the G.O. Bonds, 2007A and 2007B (see exhibit A, page 1) . The
estimated savings are in the range of $138,000 to $160,000 depending on the bond market on
the day of issuance. The savings is inclusive of all bond issuance costs. The General Obligation
Bonds, Series 2006A and 2007B are currently being paid from sales tax revenue from the
General Fund. The General Obligation Bonds, Series 2006B and Series 2007A are being paid
from the Water & Sewer Fund revenues. This advance refunding will reduce the current annual
debt service on average by $30,000 from 2015 through 2019. The principal refunded will also
be “legally defeased” meaning the total principal of the refunded maturities will not be recorded
as outstanding debt for the Village.
As suggested at the last Village Board meeting the Village may also use existing cash to pay for
the same outstanding maturities from these bond issues rather than utilizing the “Advance
Refunding” method. As of the most recent audit, there is $1,624,495 available in the water fund
(above our reserve policy) and $1,180,021 available in the general fund (above our reserve
policy) for discretionary use. In this scenario, the Village would commit current unrestricted
reserve money plus $1,810,484 of additional funds to pay the amount necessary at the call dates
of December 2015 and December 2016 to pay off the callable maturities. The savings to the
Village using this method is the amount of the interest payments that were scheduled for the
respective year of maturity after the call dates which amounts to $497,264. However, if the
refunding was undertaken and the Village invested the money suggested to be used to pay off
the callable maturities, the estimated interest earnings would amount to $492,235 (see exhibit
A, page 2). The invested cash would earn at a higher interest rate than the interest rate paid on
the refinanced debt.
Exhibit A, page 3 and 4 compare the annual cash outflows between paying off all of the callable
maturities from the four bond issuances and then having to issue new debt to pay for projects
versus the proposed refunding assuming the same dollar amount used to pay off the callable
maturities is used for new projects. Page 5 of exhibit A is a summary of the two scenarios and
the annual cash outflows. The summary shows the Village would save over $2 million by
refunding the existing debt rather than using cash to pay off the debt and then have to issue new
debt at a future date.
One unintended consequence that would result from using cash to retire the debt is concern from
bond rating agencies during future reviews. The reduction of reserves (for good reason or bad)
is a “red flag” that results in additional scrutiny. Of course, this scrutiny would also occur if we
were to use reserves for capital projects.
Future Policy Considerations.
Either financial method described will result in interest savings on the outstanding debt. The
decision as to which method to use depends on your future intention as a Board with regard to
undertaking capital projects. While reserves are to provide an economic cushion, they are also
intended to fund capital projects (and avoid future or reduced debt when possible).
If the Village Board intends to increase capital project spending in the next 5-7 years, the use of
reserves to pay off the debt would not appear to be an acceptable approach. The Federal
Reserve has already indicated interest rates will be going up. Refinancing the subject debt at
historically low levels will preserve our reserves, and allow us to use these reserves to avoid (or
reduce) future debt at higher interest rates. While no decisions have been made on future capital
expenses, we will remind the Village Board that the following significant projects have been
discussed as part of our capital planning process:







Water & Sewer Improvements (Alexander Lumber - $1,000,000+-)
Orchard Road Booster Station ($3.1 Million +/-)
Local Road Program ($11 million unfunded over next 10+years)
Wolf Crossing Phase One Design Engineering ($1,020,000)
Fox River Water Treatment Facility Engineering ($5.0 million +/-)
Police Facility Architectural Design ($3.0 Million)
Rt. 34 Watermain Relocation, Signal & Pathway ($500,000)
Funding
The advance refunding option requires no immediate funding or change in the existing funding
sources.
The paying off of the debt will be funded from the cash reserves of the respective funding source.
Recommendation
In view of the anticipated capital needs of the community, and future interest rate increases
necessary for debt financing, staff recommends Village Board adoption of the Bond Parameters
Ordinance.
Strategic Planning Objective:
S.P.O. # 1.1
Maintain mindful fiscal policy that strikes a healthy balance between resources
and needs.
S.P.O. # 1.1.2 Commit to rigorous fiscal analysis to understand the short and long term
implications of fiscal policies and decisions.

With respect to the Bonds registered in the Bond Register in the name of Cede, as
nominee of DTC, the Village and the Bond Registrar shall have no responsibility or obligation to
any broker-dealer, bank or other financial institution for which DTC holds Bonds from time to
time as securities depository (each such broker-dealer, bank or other financial institution being

-6-
Participant holds an interest in the Bonds. Without limiting the immediately preceding sentence,
the Village and the Bond Registrar shall have no responsibility or obligation with respect to
(i) the accuracy of the records of DTC, Cede or any DTC Participant with respect to any
ownership interest in the Bonds, (ii) the delivery to any DTC Participant or any other person,
other than a registered owner of a Bond as shown in the Bond Register, of any notice with respect
to the Bonds, including any notice of redemption, or (iii) the payment to any DTC Participant or
any other person, other than a registered owner of a Bond as shown in the Bond Register, of any
amount with respect to principal of or interest on the Bonds. The Village and the Bond Registrar
may treat and consider the person in whose name each Bond is registered in the Bond Register as
the holder and absolute owner of such Bond for the purpose of payment of principal and interest
with respect to such Bond, for the purpose of giving notices of redemption and other matters with
respect to such Bond, for the purpose of registering transfers with respect to such Bond, and for
all other purposes whatsoever. The Bond Registrar shall pay all principal of and interest on the
Bonds only to or upon the order of the respective registered owners of the Bonds, as shown in the
Bond Register, or their respective attorneys duly authorized in writing, and all such payments
shall be valid and effective to fully satisfy and discharge the Village’s obligations with respect to
payment of principal of and interest on the Bonds to the extent of the sum or sums so paid. No
person other than a registered owner of a Bond as shown in the Bond Register, shall receive a
Bond certificate evidencing the obligation of the Village to make payments of principal and
interest with respect to any Bond. Upon delivery by DTC to the Bond Registrar of written notice
to the effect that DTC has determined to substitute a new nominee in place of Cede, the name
“Cede” in this Ordinance shall refer to such new nominee of DTC.
In the event that (i) the Village determines that DTC is incapable of discharging its
responsibilities described herein and in the Representation Letter, (ii) the agreement among the
Village, the Bond Registrar and DTC evidenced by the Representation Letter shall be terminated
-7-
for any reason or (iii) the Village determines that it is in the best interests of the beneficial
owners of the Bonds that they be able to obtain certificated Bonds, the Village shall notify DTC
and DTC Participants of the availability through DTC of Bond certificates and the Bonds shall no
longer be restricted to being registered in the Bond Register in the name of Cede, as nominee of
DTC. At the time, the Village may determine that the Bonds shall be registered in the name of
and deposited with such other depository operating a global book-entry system, as may be
acceptable to the Village, or such depository’s agent or designee, and if the Village does not
select such alternate global book-entry system, then the Bonds may be registered in whatever
name or names registered owners of Bonds transferring or exchanging Bonds shall designate, in
accordance with the provisions of Section 11 hereof.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Ordinance to the contrary, so long as any
Bond is registered in the name of Cede, as nominee of DTC, all payments with respect to
principal of and interest on such Bond and all notices with respect to such Bond shall be made
and given, respectively, in the manner provided in the Representation Letter.
Section 6.
Execution; Authentication. The Bonds shall be executed on behalf of the
Village by the manual or duly authorized facsimile signature of its President and attested by the
manual or duly authorized facsimile signature of its Village Clerk, as they may determine, and
shall have impressed or imprinted thereon the corporate seal or facsimile thereof of the Village.
In case any such officer whose signature shall appear on any Bond shall cease to be such officer
before the delivery of such Bond, such signature shall nevertheless be valid and sufficient for all
purposes, the same as if such officer had remained in office until delivery. All Bonds shall have
thereon a certificate of authentication, substantially in the form hereinafter set forth, duly
executed by the Bond Registrar as authenticating agent of the Village and showing the date of
authentication. No Bond shall be valid or obligatory for any purpose or be entitled to any
security or benefit under this Ordinance unless and until such certificate of authentication shall
-8-
have been duly executed by the Bond Registrar by manual signature, and such certificate of
authentication upon any such Bond shall be conclusive evidence that such Bond has been
authenticated and delivered under this Ordinance. The certificate of authentication on any Bond
shall be deemed to have been executed by it if signed by an authorized officer of the Bond
Registrar, but it shall not be necessary that the same officer sign the certificate of authentication
on all of the Bonds issued hereunder.
Section 21.
Term Bonds, Mandatory Redemption and Covenants. The Bonds may be
subject to mandatory redemption (as Term Bonds) as provided in the Bond Notification. Bonds
designated as Term Bonds shall be made subject to mandatory redemption by operation of the
Bond Fund at a price of not to exceed par and accrued interest, without premium, on a given date
of the years and in the amounts as shall be determined in the Bond Notification. The Village
covenants that it will redeem any Term Bonds pursuant to the mandatory redemption requirement
for such Term Bonds and levy taxes accordingly.
Section 8.
Optional Redemption. All or a portion of the Bonds, if any, due on and after
the date, if any, specified in the Bond Notification shall be subject to redemption prior to
maturity at the option of the Village from any available funds, as a whole or in part, and if in part
in integral multiples of $5,000 in any order of their maturity as determined by the Village (less
than all of the Bonds of a single maturity to be selected by the Bond Registrar), on the date, if
any, specified in the Bond Notification (not later than 10-1/2 years from the date of the issuance
of the Bonds) and on any date thereafter, at the redemption price of par plus accrued interest to
the date fixed for redemption.
Section 9.
Term Bonds Purchase or Redemption. If the Village redeems pursuant to
optional redemption as hereinabove provided or purchases Term Bonds of any maturity and
cancels the same from Bond Moneys as hereinafter described, then an amount equal to the
principal amount of Term Bonds so redeemed or purchased shall be deducted from the
-9-
mandatory redemption requirements provided for Term Bonds of such maturity, first, in the
current year of such requirement, until the requirement for the current year has been fully met,
and then in any order of such Term Bonds as due at maturity or subject to mandatory redemption
in any year, as the Village shall determine.
If the Village redeems pursuant to optional
redemption or purchases Term Bonds of any maturity and cancels the same from moneys other
than Bond Moneys, then an amount equal to the principal amount of Term Bonds so redeemed or
purchased shall be deducted from the amount of such Term Bonds as due at maturity or subject
to mandatory redemption requirement in any year, as the Village shall determine.
Section 10.
Redemption Procedure. For a mandatory redemption of Term Bonds, the
Bond Registrar shall proceed without further authorization or direction to provide for such
redemption. For optional redemptions, the Village shall, at least 45 days prior to the redemption
date (unless a shorter time period shall be satisfactory to the Bond Registrar), notify the Bond
Registrar of such redemption date and of the maturities and principal amounts of Bonds to be
redeemed. In the event of an optional redemption of less than all of a given maturity of Term
Bonds, the Village shall also notify the Bond Registrar of the allocation of the amount to be
redeemed to the mandatory redemption requirements for such Term Bonds. For purposes of any
redemption of less than all of the Bonds of a single maturity, the particular Bonds or portions of
Bonds to be redeemed shall be selected by lot not more than 60 days prior to the redemption date
by the Bond Registrar for the Bonds of such maturity by such method of lottery as the Bond
Registrar shall deem fair and appropriate; provided, however, that such lottery shall provide for
the selection for redemption of Bonds or portions thereof so that any $5,000 Bond or $5,000
portion of a Bond shall be as likely to be called for redemption as any other such $5,000 Bond or
$5,000 portion.
-10-
The Bond Registrar shall promptly notify the Village and the Paying Agent in writing of
the Bonds or portions of Bonds selected for redemption and, in the case of any Bond selected for
partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.
Unless waived by any holder of Bonds to be redeemed, notice of the call for any such
redemption shall be given by the Bond Registrar on behalf of the Village by mailing the
redemption notice by first class mail at least thirty (30) days and not more than sixty (60) days
prior to the date fixed for redemption to the registered owner of the Bond or Bonds to be
redeemed at the address shown on the Bond Register or at such other address as is furnished in
writing by such registered owner to the Bond Registrar.
All notices of redemption shall state:
(1)
the redemption date,
(2)
the redemption price,
(3) if less than all outstanding Bonds are to be redeemed, the identification (and,
in the case of partial redemption, the respective principal amounts) of the Bonds to be
redeemed,
(4) that on the redemption date the redemption price will become due and
payable upon each such Bond or portion thereof called for redemption, and that interest
thereon shall cease to accrue from and after said date,
(5) the place where such Bonds are to be surrendered for payment of the
redemption price, which place of payment shall be the principal corporate trust office of
the Bond Registrar, and
(6)
standard.
such other information then required by custom, practice or industry
Unless moneys sufficient to pay the redemption price of the Bonds to be redeemed shall
have been received by the Bond Registrar prior to the giving of such notice of redemption, such
notice may, at the option of the Village, state that said redemption shall be conditional upon the
receipt of such moneys by the Bond Registrar on or prior to the date fixed for redemption. If such
moneys are not received, such notice shall be of no force and effect, the Village shall not redeem
-11-
such Bonds, and the Bond Registrar shall give notice, in the same manner in which the notice of
redemption shall have been given, that such moneys were not so received and that such Bonds
will not be redeemed. Otherwise, prior to any redemption date, the Village shall deposit with the
Bond Registrar an amount of money sufficient to pay the redemption price of all the Bonds or
portions of Bonds which are to be redeemed on that date.
Subject to the provisions for a conditional redemption described above, notice of
redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Bonds or portions of Bonds so to be redeemed
shall, on the redemption date, become due and payable at the redemption price therein specified,
and from and after such date (unless the Village shall default in the payment of the redemption
price) such Bonds or portions of Bonds shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of such
Bonds for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Bonds shall be paid by the Bond
Registrar at the redemption price. Installments of interest due on or prior to the redemption date
shall be payable as herein provided for payment of interest. Upon surrender for any partial
redemption of any Bond, there shall be prepared for the registered holder a new Bond or Bonds
of the same maturity in the amount of the unpaid principal.
If any Bond or portion of Bond called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender
thereof for redemption, the principal shall, until paid, bear interest from the redemption date at
the rate borne by the Bond or portion of Bond so called for redemption. All Bonds which have
been redeemed shall be cancelled and destroyed by the Bond Registrar and shall not be reissued.
As part of their respective duties hereunder, the Bond Registrar and Paying Agent shall
prepare and forward to the Village a statement as to notice given with respect to each redemption
together with copies of the notices as mailed and published.
Section 11.
Registration and Exchange or Transfer of Bonds; Persons Treated as
Owners. The Village shall cause books (the “Bond Register”) for the registration and for the
transfer of the Bonds as provided in this Ordinance to be kept at the principal corporate trust
-12-
office of the Bond Registrar, which is hereby constituted and appointed the registrar of the
Village for the Bonds. The Village is authorized to prepare, and the Bond Registrar or such other
agent as the Village may designate shall keep custody of, multiple Bond blanks executed by the
Village for use in the transfer and exchange of Bonds.
Any Bond may be transferred or exchanged, but only in the manner, subject to the
limitations, and upon payment of the charges as set forth in this Ordinance. Upon surrender for
transfer or exchange of any Bond at the principal corporate trust office of the Bond Registrar,
duly endorsed by or accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer or exchange
in form satisfactory to the Bond Registrar and duly executed by the registered owner or an
attorney for such owner duly authorized in writing, the Village shall execute and the Bond
Registrar shall authenticate, date and deliver in the name of the transferee or transferees or, in the
case of an exchange, the registered owner, a new fully registered Bond or Bonds of like tenor, of
the same maturity, bearing the same interest rate, of authorized denominations, for a like
aggregate principal amount.
The Bond Registrar shall not be required to transfer or exchange any Bond during the
period from the close of business on the Record Date for an interest payment to the opening of
business on such interest payment date or during the period of 15 days preceding the giving of
notice of redemption of Bonds or to transfer or exchange any Bond all or a portion of which has
been called for redemption.
The execution by the Village of any fully registered Bond shall constitute full and due
authorization of such Bond, and the Bond Registrar shall thereby be authorized to authenticate,
date and deliver such Bond; provided, however, that the principal amount of Bonds of each
maturity authenticated by the Bond Registrar shall not at any one time exceed the authorized
principal amount of Bonds for such maturity less the amount of such Bonds which have been
paid.
-13-
The person in whose name any Bond shall be registered shall be deemed and regarded as
the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and payment of the principal of or interest on any
Bond shall be made only to or upon the order of the registered owner thereof or his legal
representative. All such payments shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the
liability upon such Bond to the extent of the sum or sums so paid.
No service charge shall be made for any transfer or exchange of Bonds, but the Village or
the Bond Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Bonds,
except in the case of the issuance of a Bond or Bonds for the unredeemed portion of a Bond
surrendered for redemption.
Section 12.
Form of Bond. The Bonds shall be in substantially the form hereinafter set
forth; provided, however, that if the text of the Bonds is to be printed in its entirety on the front
side of the Bonds, then the second paragraph on the front side and the legend “See Reverse Side
for Additional Provisions” shall be omitted and the text of paragraphs set forth for the reverse
side shall be inserted immediately after the first paragraph.

Section 13.
Tax Levy. For the purpose of providing funds required to pay the interest on
the Bonds promptly when and as the same falls due, and to pay and discharge the principal
thereof at maturity, there is hereby levied upon all of the taxable property within the Village, in
the years 2014 through 2019, a direct annual tax sufficient for that purpose in a yearly amount
not to exceed $1,295,000 (the “Pledged Taxes”). Such levy shall be fully set forth in the Bond
Notification for the Bonds.
The Pledged Taxes and other moneys (excepting proceeds of the Bonds) on deposit
(collectively, the “Bond Moneys”) in the Bond Fund shall be applied to pay principal of and
interest on the Bonds as follows:
A.
Bond Moneys shall be applied to the payment of interest when due and
principal or redemption price when due at maturity or as redeemed pursuant to mandatory
redemption from the Bond Fund, or
B.
On or before October 1 in each calendar year preceding a December 15
mandatory redemption date in the successive calendar year, Bond Moneys up to the
amount of the redemption requirement on such mandatory redemption date plus interest
due on Term Bonds on such date may be applied (1) to the purchase of Term Bonds of the
maturity for which such mandatory redemption requirement was established at prices
(including commissions and charges, if any) not exceeding par and accrued interest to
such December 15 or (2) to the redemption of such Bonds, without premium, pursuant to
optional redemption provisions applicable thereto. Upon the purchase or redemption of
Term Bonds of any maturity pursuant to this paragraph (B), an amount equal to the
principal amount of such Bonds or applicable portion thereof so purchased or redeemed
shall be deducted from the next mandatory redemption requirement thereafter to become
due on such Bonds and any excess over the amount of such requirement shall be deducted
from the future requirement for such Bonds as the Village shall determine.
-20-
Interest or principal coming due at any time when there are insufficient funds on hand
from the Pledged Taxes to pay the same shall be paid promptly when due from current funds on
hand in advance of the collection of the Pledged Taxes herein levied; and when the Pledged
Taxes shall have been collected, reimbursement shall be made to said funds in the amount so
advanced. The Village covenants and agrees with the purchasers and registered owners of the
Bonds that so long as any of the Bonds remain outstanding, the Village will take no action or fail
to take any action which in any way would adversely affect the ability of the Village to levy and
collect the foregoing tax levy. The Village and its officers will comply with all present and
future applicable laws in order to assure that the Pledged Taxes may be levied, extended and
collected as provided herein and deposited into the Bond Fund.
Whenever other funds from any lawful source are made available for the purpose of
paying any principal of or interest on the Bonds so as to enable the abatement of the taxes levied
herein for the payment of same, the Village Board shall, by proper proceedings, direct the deposit
of such funds into the Bond Fund and further shall direct the abatement of the taxes by the
amount so deposited. A certified copy or other notification of any such proceedings abating
taxes may then be filed with the County Clerk in a timely manner to effect such abatement.
Section 14.
Filing with County Clerk. Promptly, as soon as this Ordinance becomes
effective, a copy hereof, certified by the Village Clerk of the Village, shall be filed with the
County Clerk; and the County Clerk shall in and for each of the years required ascertain the rate
percent required to produce the aggregate tax herein provided to be levied as set forth in a Bond
Notification for each of the years; and the County Clerk shall (to the extent said tax has not been
abated as provided herein) extend the same for collection on the tax books in connection with
other taxes levied in said years in and by the Village for general corporate purposes of the
Village; and in said years such annual tax shall be levied and collected by and for and on behalf
-21-
of the Village in like manner as taxes for general corporate purposes for said years are levied and
collected, and in addition to and in excess of all other taxes.
Section 15.
Sale of Bonds; Bond Notification. The Designated Officials are hereby
authorized to proceed not later than the 21st day of April, 2015, without any further authorization
or direction whatsoever from the Village Board, to sell the Bonds upon the terms as prescribed in
this Ordinance and to deliver them promptly thereafter. In the Bond Notification, the Designated
Representatives shall find and determine that the net present value savings to the Village as a
result of the issuance of the Bonds and the Refunding of the Refunded Bonds is not less than
3.00% of the principal amount of the Refunded Bonds. The Bonds shall be sold and delivered to
the Purchaser at the price of not less than 98% of the par value of the principal amount thereof,
plus accrued interest, if any, to the date of delivery. The Designated Officials may choose all or
any lesser portion of the Prior Bonds to be refunded. Nothing in this Section shall require the
Designated Officials to sell any of the Bonds if in their judgment, the conditions in the bond
markets shall have deteriorated from the time of adoption thereof or the sale of all or any portion
of the Bonds shall for some other reason not be deemed advisable, but the Designated Officials
shall have the authority to sell the Bonds in any event so long as the limitations set forth in this
Ordinance and the conditions of this Section shall have been met.
Upon the sale of the Bonds or any series of the Bonds, the Designated Officials and any
other officers of the Village as shall be appropriate, shall be and are hereby authorized and
directed to approve or execute, or both, such documents of sale of the Bonds as may be
necessary, including, without limitation, the contract for the sale of the Bonds between the
Village and the Purchaser (the “Bond Purchase Contract”), the Bond Notification, Preliminary
Official Statement, Official Statement and closing documents. The Designated Officials must
find and determine in the Bond Notification that no person holding any office of the Village
either by election or appointment, is in any manner financially interested either directly, in his or
-22-
her own name, or indirectly in the name of any other person, association, trust or corporation in
said Bond Purchase Contract with the Purchaser for the purchase of the Bonds. The distribution
of the Preliminary Official Statement relating to the Bonds is hereby in all respects authorized
and approved, and the proposed use by the Purchaser of an Official Statement (in substantially
the form of the Preliminary Official Statement but with appropriate variations to reflect the final
terms of the Bonds) is hereby approved.
Upon the sale of the Bonds, the Designated Officials shall prepare the Bond Notification,
which shall include the pertinent details of sale as provided herein, and such shall be entered into
the records of the Village and made available at the next public meeting of the Village Board.
The Designated Officials shall also file with the County Clerk the Bond Notification or like
document including a statement of taxes.
The officers of the Village are hereby authorized to take any action as may be required on
the part of the Village to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Bond Purchase
Contract, this Ordinance, said Preliminary Official Statement, said final Official Statement and
the Bonds.
Section 16.
A.
Creation of Funds and Appropriations.
There is hereby created the “General Obligation Refunding Bonds, Series 20__,
Bond Fund” (the “Bond Fund”), which shall be the fund for the payment of principal of and
interest on the Bonds. Accrued interest and premium, if any, received upon delivery of the
Bonds shall be deposited into the Bond Fund and be applied to pay first interest coming due on
the Bonds.
B.
The Pledged Taxes shall either be deposited into the Bond Fund and used solely and
only for paying the principal of and interest on the Bonds or be used to reimburse a fund or
account from which advances to the Bond Fund may have been made to pay principal of or
interest on the Bonds prior to receipt of Pledged Taxes. Interest income or investment profit
-23-
earned in the Bond Fund shall be retained in the Bond Fund for payment of the principal of or
interest on the Bonds on the interest payment date next after such interest or profit is received or,
to the extent lawful and as determined by the Village Board, transferred to such other fund as
may be determined. The Village hereby pledges, as equal and ratable security for the Bonds, all
present and future proceeds of the Pledged Taxes for the sole benefit of the registered owners of
the Bonds, subject to the reserved right of the Village Board to transfer certain interest income or
investment profit earned in the Bond Fund to other funds of the Village, as described in the
preceding sentence.
C.
The sum of principal proceeds of the Bonds as is necessary, together with such
money in the debt service funds for the Refunded Bonds as may be advisable for the purpose,
shall be used to provide for the Refunding, and the payment of such expenses as may be
designated, pursuant to the provisions of an Escrow Agreement with the Escrow Agent as is
designated, all in accordance with the provisions of an Escrow Agreement, substantially in the
form attached hereto as Exhibit A to this Ordinance, made a part hereof by this reference, and
hereby approved; the officers appearing signatory to such Escrow Agreement are hereby
authorized and directed to execute same, their execution to constitute conclusive proof of action
in accordance with this Ordinance, and approval of all completions or revisions necessary or
appropriate to effect the Refunding. The Village expressly authorizes the use of the Government
Securities as deposited in the Escrow Account as set forth in the Escrow Agreement. At the time
of the issuance of the Bonds, the costs of issuance of the Bonds may be paid by the Purchaser on
behalf of the Village from the proceeds of the Bonds.
Section 17.
Non-Arbitrage and Tax-Exemption. One purpose of this Section is to set
forth various facts regarding the Bonds and to establish the expectations of the Village Board and
the Village as to future events regarding the Bonds and the use of Bond proceeds.
The
certifications, covenants and representations contained herein and at the time of the Closing are
-24-
made on behalf of the Village for the benefit of the owners from time to time of the Bonds. In
addition to providing the certifications, covenants and representations contained herein, the
Village hereby covenants that it will not take any action, omit to take any action or permit the
taking or omission of any action within its control (including, without limitation, making or
permitting any use of the proceeds of the Bonds) if taking, permitting or omitting to take such
action would cause any of the Bonds to be an arbitrage bond or a private activity bond within the
meaning of the hereinafter defined Code or would otherwise cause the interest on the Bonds to be
included in the gross income of the recipients thereof for federal income tax purposes. The
Village acknowledges that, in the event of an examination by the Internal Revenue Service (the
“IRS”) of the exemption from federal income taxation for interest paid on the Bonds, under
present rules, the Village may be treated as a “taxpayer” in such examination and agrees that it
will respond in a commercially reasonable manner to any inquiries from the IRS in connection
with such an examination. The Village Board and the Village certify, covenant and represent as
follows:
1.1. Definitions. In addition to such other words and terms used and defined in
this Ordinance, the following words and terms used in this Section shall have the
following meanings unless, in either case, the context or use clearly indicates another or
different meaning is intended:
“Affiliated Person” means any Person that (a) at any time during the six months
prior to the execution and delivery of the Bonds, (i) has more than five percent of the
voting power of the governing body of the Village in the aggregate vested in its directors,

paragraph 5.1 hereof), including accrued interest.
“Yield Reduction Payment” means a rebate payment or any other amount paid to
the United States in the same manner as rebate amounts are required to be paid or at such
other time or in such manner as the Internal Revenue Service may prescribe that will be

2.1. Purpose of the Bonds. The Bonds are being issued solely and exclusively
to refund in advance of maturity the Refunded Bonds in a prudent manner consistent with
the revenue needs of the Village. A breakdown of the sources and uses of funds is set
forth in the preceding Section of this Ordinance. Except to pay the Refunded Bonds and
except for any accrued interest on the Bonds used to pay first interest due on the Bonds,
no proceeds of the Bonds will be used more than 30 days after the date of issue of the
Bonds for the purpose of paying any principal or interest on any issue of bonds, notes,
certificates or warrants or on any installment contract or other obligation of the Village or
for the purpose of replacing any funds of the Village used for such purpose.
-29-
2.2. Bond Fund Investment. The investment earnings on the Bond Fund will be
spent to pay interest on the Bonds, or to the extent permitted by law, investment earnings
on amounts in the Bond Fund will be commingled with substantial revenues from the
governmental operations of the Village, and the earnings are reasonably expected to be
spent for governmental purposes within six months of the date earned. Interest earnings
on the Bond Fund have not been earmarked or restricted by the Village Board for a
designated purpose.
2.3. Reimbursement. None of the Sale Proceeds or investment earnings thereon
will be used for Reimbursed Expenditures.
2.4. Working Capital. All Sale Proceeds and investment earnings thereon will
be used, directly or indirectly, to pay principal of, interest on and redemption premium (if
any) on the Refunded Bonds, other than the following:
(a) payments of interest on the Bonds for the period commencing at
Closing and ending on the date one year after the date on which the Prior Project
is Placed-in-Service;
(b)
Costs of Issuance and Qualified Administrative Costs of Investments;
(c) payments of rebate or Yield Reduction Payments made to the United
States under the Regulations;
(d) principal of or interest on the Bonds paid from unexpected excess
Sale Proceeds and investment earnings thereon;
(e)
fees for the Credit Facility, if any; and
(f) investment earnings that are commingled with substantial other
revenues and are expected to be allocated to expenditures within six months.
2.5. Consequences of Contrary Expenditure. The Village acknowledges that if
Sale Proceeds and investment earnings thereon are spent other than as permitted by
paragraph 2.4 hereof, a like amount of then available funds of the Village will be treated
as unspent Sale Proceeds.
2.6. Investment of Bond Proceeds. No portion of the Bonds is being issued
solely for the purpose of investing a portion of Sale Proceeds or investment earnings
thereon at a Yield higher than the Yield on the Bonds.
2.7. No Grants. None of the Sale Proceeds or investment earnings thereon will
be used to make grants to any person.
2.8. Hedges. Neither the Village nor any member of the same Controlled Group
as the Village has entered into or expects to enter into any hedge (e.g., an interest rate
swap, interest rate cap, futures contract, forward contract or an option) with respect to the
-30-
Bonds or the Prior Bonds. The Village acknowledges that any such hedge could affect,
among other things, the calculation of Bond Yield under the Regulations. The Internal
Revenue Service could recalculate Bond Yield if the failure to account for the hedge fails
to clearly reflect the economic substance of the transaction.
The Village also acknowledges that if it acquires a hedging contract with an
investment element (including e.g., an off-market swap agreement, or any cap agreement
for which all or a portion of the premium is paid at, or before the effective date of the cap
agreement), then a portion of such hedging contract may be treated as an investment of
Gross Proceeds of the Bonds, and be subject to the fair market purchase price rules,
rebate and yield restriction. The Village agrees not to use proceeds of the Bonds to pay
for any such hedging contract in whole or in part. The Village also agrees that it will not
give any assurances to any Bondholder, the Credit Facility Provider, if any, or any other
credit or liquidity enhancer with respect to the Bonds that any such hedging contract will
be entered into or maintained. The Village recognizes that if a portion of a hedging
contract is determined to be an investment of gross proceeds, such portion may not be
fairly priced even if the hedging contract as a whole is fairly priced.
2.9. Internal Revenue Service Audits. The Village represents that the Internal
Revenue Service has not contacted the Village regarding the Prior Bonds or any other
obligations issued by or on behalf of the Village. To the best of the knowledge of the
Village, no such obligations of the Village are currently under examination by the Internal
Revenue Service.
2.10. Abusive Transactions. Neither the Village nor any member of the same
Controlled Group as the Village will receive a rebate or credit resulting from any
payments having been made in connection with the issuance of the Bonds or the advance
refunding of the Refunded Bonds.
3.1. Use of Proceeds. (a) The use of the Sale Proceeds and investment earnings
thereon and the funds held under this Ordinance at the time of Closing are described in
the preceding Section of this Ordinance. No Sale Proceeds will be used to pre-pay for
goods or services to be received over a period of years prior to the date such goods or
services are to be received, except for any payment to the Credit Facility Provider, if any.
No Sale Proceeds or any investment earnings thereon will be used to pay for or otherwise
acquire goods or services from an Affiliated Person.
(b) Only the funds and accounts described in said Section will be funded at
Closing. There are no other funds or accounts created under this Ordinance, other than
the Rebate Fund if it is created as provided in paragraph 4.2 hereof.
(c)
Principal of and interest on the Bonds will be paid from the Bond Fund.
(d) Any Costs of Issuance incurred in connection with the issuance of the Bonds
to be paid by the Village will be paid at the time of Closing.
-31-
3.2. Purpose of Bond Fund. The Bond Fund will be used primarily to achieve a
proper matching of revenues and earnings with principal and interest payments on the
Bonds in each bond year. It is expected that the Bond Fund will be depleted at least once
a year, except for a reasonable carry over amount not to exceed the greater of (a) the
earnings on the investment of moneys in the Bond Fund for the immediately preceding
bond year or (b) 1/12th of the principal and interest payments on the Bonds for the
immediately preceding bond year.
3.3. The Prior Bonds. (a) As of the earlier of (i) the time of the Closing or
(ii) the date three years after the Prior Bonds were issued, all Prior Bond Proceeds,
including investment earnings thereon, were completely spent to pay the costs of Capital
Expenditures.
(b) As of the date hereof, no Prior Bond Proceeds or money or property of any
kind (including cash) is on deposit in any fund or account, regardless of where held or the
source thereof, with respect to the Prior Bonds or any credit enhancement or liquidity
device relating to the foregoing, or is otherwise restricted to pay the Village’s obligations
other than amounts on deposit in the Escrow Account.
(c) The Prior Bond Fund was used primarily to achieve a proper matching of
revenues and earnings with principal and interest payments on the Prior Bonds in each
bond year. The Prior Bond Fund was depleted at least once a year, except for a
reasonable carry over amount not to exceed the greater of (i) the earnings on the
investment of moneys in such account for the immediately preceding bond year or
(ii) one-twelfth (1/12th) of the principal and interest payments on the Prior Bonds.
(d) At the time the Prior Bonds were issued, the Village reasonably expected to
spend at least 85% of the proceeds (including investment earnings) of the Prior Bonds to
be used for non-refunding purposes for such purposes within three years of the date the
Prior Bonds were issued and such proceeds were so spent. Not more than 50% of the
proceeds of the Prior Bonds to be used for non-refunding purposes were invested in
investments having a substantially guaranteed Yield for four years or more.
(e) The Refunded Bonds subject to redemption prior to maturity will be called
on the first optional redemption date of the Refunded Bonds.
(f) The Refunded Bonds do not include, directly or indirectly in a series, any
advance refunding obligations.
(g) The Village has not been notified that the Prior Bonds are under
examination by the Internal Revenue Service, and to the best of the Village’s knowledge
the Prior Bonds are not under examination by the Internal Revenue Service.
(h) The Village acknowledges that (i) the final rebate payment with respect to
the Prior Bonds may be required to be made sooner than if the refunding had not occurred
and (ii) the final rebate is due 60 days after the Prior Bonds are paid in full.
-32-
3.4.
Closing.
The Escrow Account.
(a) The Escrow Account will be funded at the
(b) The uninvested cash and anticipated receipts from the Government
Securities on deposit in the Escrow Account, without regard to any reinvestment thereof,
will be sufficient to pay, when due, principal and interest on the Refunded Bonds as such
become due and payable and to redeem the outstanding principal amount of any callable
Refunded Bonds on the first optional redemption date of such callable Refunded Bonds,
at the applicable redemption price thereof based on the Verification Report.
(c) Any moneys remaining on deposit in the Escrow Account upon the final
disbursement of funds sufficient to pay principal and interest of the Refunded Bonds shall
be transferred by the Escrow Agent to the Bond Fund to be used to pay interest on the
Bonds.
3.5. No Other Gross Proceeds. (a) Except for the Bond Fund and except for
investment earnings that have been commingled as described in paragraph 2.2 and any
credit enhancement or liquidity device related to the Bonds, after the issuance of the
Bonds, neither the Village nor any member of the same Controlled Group as the Village
has or will have any property, including cash, securities or any other property held as a
passive vehicle for the production of income or for investment purposes, that constitutes:
(i)
Sale Proceeds;
(ii) amounts in any fund or account with respect to the Bonds (other than
the Rebate Fund);
(iii)
Transferred Proceeds;
(iv) amounts that have a sufficiently direct nexus to the Bonds or to the
governmental purpose of the Bonds to conclude that the amounts would have been
used for that governmental purpose if the Bonds were not used or to be used for
that governmental purpose (the mere availability or preliminary earmarking of
such amounts for a governmental purpose, however, does not itself establish such
a sufficient nexus);
(v) amounts in a debt service fund, redemption fund, reserve fund,
replacement fund or any similar fund to the extent reasonably expected to be used
directly or indirectly to pay principal of or interest on the Bonds or any amounts
for which there is provided, directly or indirectly, a reasonable assurance that the
amount will be available to pay principal of or interest on the Bonds or any
obligations under any credit enhancement or liquidity device with respect to the
Bonds, even if the Village encounters financial difficulties;
(vi) any amounts held pursuant to any agreement (such as an agreement to
maintain certain levels of types of assets) made for the benefit of the Bondholders
or any credit enhancement provider, including any liquidity device or negative
-33-
pledge (e.g., any amount pledged to pay principal of or interest on an issue held
under an agreement to maintain the amount at a particular level for the direct or
indirect benefit of holders of the Bonds or a guarantor of the Bonds); or
(vii) amounts actually or constructively received from the investment and
reinvestment of the amounts described in (i) or (ii) above.
(b) No compensating balance, liquidity account, negative pledge of property
held for investment purposes required to be maintained at least at a particular level or
similar arrangement exists with respect to, in any way, the Bonds or any credit
enhancement or liquidity device related to the Bonds.
(c) The term of the Bonds is not longer than is reasonably necessary for the
governmental purposes of the Bonds. The weighted average maturity of the Bonds does
not exceed 120 percent of the average reasonably expected economic life of the Prior
Project. The maturity schedule of the Bonds (the “Principal Payment Schedule”) is
based on an analysis of revenues expected to be available to pay debt service on the
Bonds. The Principal Payment Schedule is not more rapid (i.e., having a lower average
maturity) because a more rapid schedule would place an undue burden on tax rates and
cause such rates to be increased beyond prudent levels, and would be inconsistent with
the governmental purpose of the Bonds as set forth in paragraph 2.1 hereof.
4.1. Compliance with Rebate Provisions. The Village covenants to take such
actions and make, or cause to be made, all calculations, transfers and payments that may
be necessary to comply with the Rebate Provisions applicable to the Bonds. The Village
will make, or cause to be made, rebate payments with respect to the Bonds in accordance
with law.
4.2. Rebate Fund. The Village is hereby authorized to create and establish a
special fund to be known as the Rebate Fund (the “Rebate Fund”), which, if created,
shall be continuously held, invested, expended and accounted for in accordance with this
Ordinance. Moneys in the Rebate Fund shall not be considered moneys held for the
benefit of the owners of the Bonds. Except as provided in the Regulations, moneys in the
Rebate Fund (including earnings and deposits therein) shall be held in trust for payment
to the United States as required by the Rebate Provisions and by the Regulations and as
contemplated under the provisions of this Ordinance.
4.3. Records. The Village agrees to keep and retain or cause to be kept and
retained for the period described in paragraph 7.9 adequate records with respect to the
investment of all Gross Proceeds and amounts in the Rebate Fund. Such records shall
include: (a) purchase price; (b) purchase date; (c) type of investment; (d) accrued interest
paid; (e) interest rate; (f) principal amount; (g) maturity date; (h) interest payment date;
(i) date of liquidation; and (j) receipt upon liquidation.
If any investment becomes Gross Proceeds on a date other than the date such
investment is purchased, the records required to be kept shall include the fair market
value of such investment on the date it becomes Gross Proceeds. If any investment is
-34-
retained after the date the last Bond is retired, the records required to be kept shall include
the fair market value of such investment on the date the last Bond is retired. Amounts or
investments will be segregated whenever necessary to maintain these records.
4.4. Fair Market Value; Certificates of Deposit and Investment Agreements.
The Village will continuously invest all amounts on deposit in the Rebate Fund, together
with the amounts, if any, to be transferred to the Rebate Fund, in any investment
permitted under this Ordinance. In making investments of Gross Proceeds or of amounts
in the Rebate Fund the Village shall take into account prudent investment standards and
the date on which such moneys may be needed. Except as provided in the next sentence,
all amounts that constitute Gross Proceeds and all amounts in the Rebate Fund shall be
invested at all times to the greatest extent practicable, and no amounts may be held as
cash or be invested in zero yield investments other than obligations of the United States
purchased directly from the United States. In the event moneys cannot be invested, other
than as provided in this sentence due to the denomination, price or availability of
investments, the amounts shall be invested in an interest bearing deposit of a bank with a
yield not less than that paid to the general public or held uninvested to the minimum
extent necessary.
Gross Proceeds and any amounts in the Rebate Fund that are invested in
certificates of deposit or in GICs shall be invested only in accordance with the following
provisions:
(a) Investments in certificates of deposit of banks or savings and loan
associations that have a fixed interest rate, fixed payment schedules and
substantial penalties for early withdrawal shall be made only if either (i) the Yield
on the certificate of deposit (A) is not less than the Yield on reasonably
comparable direct obligations of the United States and (B) is not less than the
highest Yield that is published or posted by the provider to be currently available
from the provider on reasonably comparable certificates of deposit offered to the
public or (ii) the investment is an investment in a GIC and qualifies under
paragraph (b) below.
(b)
Investments in GICs shall be made only if
(i) the bid specifications are in writing, include all material terms
of the bid and are timely forwarded to potential providers (a term is
material if it may directly or indirectly affect the yield on the GIC);
(ii) the terms of the bid specifications are commercially reasonable
(a term is commercially reasonable if there is a legitimate business purpose
for the term other than to reduce the yield on the GIC);
(iii) all bidders for the GIC have equal opportunity to bid so that,
for example, no bidder is given the opportunity to review other bids (a last
look) before bidding;
-35-
(iv) any agent used to conduct the bidding for the GIC does not bid
to provide the GIC;
(v) at least three of the providers solicited for bids for the GIC are
reasonably competitive providers of investments of the type purchased
(i.e., providers that have established industry reputations as competitive
providers of the type of investments being purchased);
(vi) at least three of the entities that submit a bid do not have a
financial interest in the Bonds;
(vii) at least one of the entities that provided a bid is a reasonably
competitive provider that does not have a financial interest in the Bonds;
(viii) the bid specifications include a statement notifying potential
providers that submission of a bid is a representation that the potential
provider did not consult with any other provider about its bid, that the bid
was determined without regard to any other formal or informal agreement
that the potential provider has with the Village or any other person
(whether or not in connection with the Bonds) and that the bid is not being
submitted solely as a courtesy to the Village or any other person for
purposes of satisfying the federal income tax requirements relating to the
bidding for the GIC;
(ix) the determination of the terms of the GIC takes into account the
reasonably expected deposit and drawdown schedule for the amounts to be
invested;
(x) the highest-yielding GIC for which a qualifying bid is made
(determined net of broker’s fees) is in fact purchased; and
(xi) the obligor on the GIC certifies the administrative costs that it
is paying or expects to pay to third parties in connection with the GIC.
(c) If a GIC is purchased, the Village will retain the following records
with its bond documents until three years after the Bonds are redeemed in their
entirety:
(i)
a copy of the GIC;
(ii) the receipt or other record of the amount actually paid for the
GIC, including a record of any administrative costs paid, and the
certification under subparagraph (b)(xi) of this paragraph;
(iii) for each bid that is submitted, the name of the person and entity
submitting the bid, the time and date of the bid, and the bid results; and
-36-
(iv) the bid solicitation form and, if the terms of the GIC deviated
from the bid solicitation form or a submitted bid is modified, a brief
statement explaining the deviation and stating the purpose for the
deviation.
Moneys to be rebated to the United States shall be invested to mature on or prior
to the anticipated rebate payment date. All investments made with Gross Proceeds or
amounts in the Rebate Fund shall be bought and sold at fair market value. The fair
market value of an investment is the price at which a willing buyer would purchase the
investment from a willing seller in a bona fide, arm’s length transaction. Except for
investments specifically described in this Section and United States Treasury obligations
that are purchased directly from the United States Treasury, only investments that are
traded on an established securities market, within the meaning of regulations promulgated
under Section 1273 of the Code, will be purchased with Gross Proceeds. In general, an
“established securities market” includes: (i) property that is listed on a national securities
exchange, an interdealer quotation system or certain foreign exchanges; (ii) property that
is traded on a Commodities Futures Trading Commission designated board of trade or an
interbank market; (iii) property that appears on a quotation medium; and (iv) property for
which price quotations are readily available from dealers and brokers. A debt instrument
is not treated as traded on an established market solely because it is convertible into
property which is so traded.
An investment of Gross Proceeds in an External Commingled Fund shall be made
only to the extent that such investment is made without an intent to reduce the amount to
be rebated to the United States Government or to create a smaller profit or a larger loss
than would have resulted if the transaction had been at arm’s length and had the rebate or
Yield restriction requirements not been relevant to the Village. An investment of Gross
Proceeds shall be made in a Commingled Fund other than an External Commingled Fund
only if the investments made by such Commingled Fund satisfy the provisions of this
paragraph.
A single investment, or multiple investments awarded to a provider based on a
single bid may not be used for funds subject to different rules relating to rebate or yield
restriction.
The foregoing provisions of this paragraph satisfy various safe harbors set forth in
the Regulations relating to the valuation of certain types of investments. The safe harbor
provisions of this paragraph are contained herein for the protection of the Village, who
has covenanted not to take any action to adversely affect the tax-exempt status of the
interest on the Bonds. The Village will contact Bond Counsel if it does not wish to
comply with the provisions of this paragraph and forego the protection provided by the
safe harbors provided herein.
4.5. Arbitrage Elections. The Village hereby waives its right to invest Sale
Proceeds of the Bonds and investment earnings thereon in the Escrow Account in
investments with Yields higher than Bond Yield. The President, Village Clerk and
-37-
Village Treasurer are hereby authorized to execute one or more elections regarding
certain matters with respect to arbitrage.
5.1. Issue Price. For purposes of determining the Yield on the Bonds, the
purchase price of the Bonds is equal to the first offering price (including accrued interest)
at which the Purchaser reasonably expected to sell at least ten percent of the principal
amount of each maturity of the Bonds to the public (excluding bond houses, brokers or
similar persons or organizations acting in the capacity of underwriters, placement agents
or wholesalers). All of the Bonds have been the subject of a bona fide initial offering to
the public (excluding bond houses, brokers, or similar persons or organizations acting in
the capacity of underwriters, placement agents or wholesalers) at prices equal to those set
forth in the Official Statement. Based upon prevailing market conditions, such prices are
not less than the fair market value of each Bond as of the sale date for the Bonds.
5.2. Yield Limits. Except as provided in paragraph (a) or (b), all Gross Proceeds
shall be invested at market prices and at a Yield (after taking into account any Yield
Reduction Payments) not in excess of the Yield on the Bonds.
The following may be invested without Yield restriction:
(a) amounts on deposit in the Bond Fund (except for capitalized interest) that
have not been on deposit under the Ordinance for more than 13 months, so long as the
Bond Fund continues to qualify as a bona fide debt service fund as described in
paragraph 3.2 hereof;
(b) (i) An amount not to exceed the lesser of $100,000 or five percent of the
Sale Proceeds;
(ii) amounts invested in Qualified Tax Exempt Obligations (to the extent
permitted by law and this Ordinance);
(iii)
amounts in the Rebate Fund;
(iv) all amounts other than Sale Proceeds for the first 30 days after they
become Gross Proceeds; and
(v) all amounts derived from the investment of Sale Proceeds or
investment earnings thereon other than those on deposit in the Escrow Account
for a period of one year from the date received.
5.3. Yield Limits on Prior Bond Proceeds. Except for an amount not to exceed
the lesser of $100,000 or five percent of Prior Bond Proceeds, the Village acknowledges
that all Prior Bond Proceeds must be invested at market prices and at a Yield not in
excess of the Yield on the Prior Bonds.
-38-
5.4. Continuing Nature of Yield Limits. Except as provided in paragraph 7.10
hereof, once moneys are subject to the Yield limits of paragraph 5.2 hereof, such moneys
remain Yield restricted until they cease to be Gross Proceeds.
5.5. Federal Guarantees. Except for investments meeting the requirements of
paragraph 5.2(a) hereof and except for investments in the Escrow Account, investments
of Gross Proceeds shall not be made in (a) investments constituting obligations of or
guaranteed, directly or indirectly, by the United States (except obligations of the United
States Treasury or investments in obligations issued pursuant to Section 21B(d)(3) of the
Federal Home Loan Bank, as amended (e.g., Refcorp Strips)); or (b) federally insured
deposits or accounts (as defined in Section 149(b)(4)(B) of the Code). Except as
otherwise permitted in the immediately prior sentence and in the Regulations, no portion
of the payment of principal or interest on the Bonds or any credit enhancement or
liquidity device relating to the foregoing is or will be guaranteed, directly or indirectly (in
whole or in part), by the United States (or any agency or instrumentality thereof),
including a lease, incentive payment, research or output contract or any similar
arrangement, agreement or understanding with the United States or any agency or
instrumentality thereof. No portion of the Gross Proceeds has been or will be used to
make loans the payment of principal or interest with respect to which is or will be
guaranteed (in whole or in part) by the United States (or any agency or instrumentality
thereof). Neither this paragraph nor paragraph 5.6 hereof applies to any guarantee by the
Federal Housing Administration, the Federal National Mortgage Association, the Federal
Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, the Government National Mortgage Association, the
Student Loan Marketing Association or the Bonneville Power Administration pursuant to
the Northwest Power Act (16 U.S.C. 839d) as in effect on the date of enactment of the
Tax Reform Act of 1984.
5.6. Investments After the Expiration of Temporary Periods, Etc. Any amounts,
other than amounts in the Escrow Account, that are subject to the yield limitation in
Section 5.2 because Section 5.2(a) is not applicable and amounts not subject to yield
restriction only because they are described in Section 5.2(b) cannot be invested in
(i) federally insured deposits or accounts (as defined in Section 149(b)(4)(B) of the Code)
or (ii) investments constituting obligations of or guaranteed, directly or indirectly, by the
United States (except obligations of the United States Treasury or investments in
obligations issued pursuant to Section 21B(d)(3) of the Federal Home Loan Bank Act, as
amended (e.g., Refcorp Strips)).
5.7. Escrow Yield. The Yield on the Government Securities purchased with
Sale Proceeds of the Bonds, taking into account any Transferred Proceeds, will be
computed by the Purchaser and verified by the Verifier to be not greater than the Yield on
the Bonds computed by the Purchaser and verified by the Verifier.
5.8. Treatment of Certain Credit Facility Fees. The fee paid to the Credit
Facility Provider with respect to the Credit Facility may be treated as interest in
computing Bond Yield.
-39-
Neither the Village nor any member of the same Controlled Group as the Village
is a Related Person as defined in Section 144(a)(3) of the Code to the Credit Facility
Provider. The fee paid to the Credit Facility Provider does not exceed ten percent of the
Sale Proceeds. Other than the fee paid to the Credit Facility Provider, neither the Credit
Facility Provider nor any person who is a Related Person to the Credit Facility Provider
within the meaning of Section 144(a)(3) of the Code will use any Sale Proceeds or
investment earnings thereon. The fee paid for the Credit Facility does not exceed a
reasonable, arm’s length charge for the transfer of credit risk. The fee does not include
any payment for any direct or indirect services other than the transfer of credit risk.
6.1. Payment and Use Tests. (a) No more than five percent of the proceeds of
each issue of the Prior Bonds and investment earnings thereon were used, directly or
indirectly, in whole or in part, in any Private Business Use. The Village acknowledges
that, for purposes of the preceding sentence, Gross Proceeds used to pay costs of issuance
and other common costs (such as capitalized interest and fees paid for a qualified
guarantee or qualified hedge) or invested in a reserve or replacement fund must be ratably
allocated among all the purposes for which Gross Proceeds are being used.
(b) The payment of more than five percent of the principal of or the interest on
the Bonds or on each issue of the Prior Bonds considered separately will not be, directly
or indirectly (i) secured by any interest in (A) property used or to be used in any Private
Business Use or (B) payments in respect of such property or (ii) on a present value basis,
derived from payments (whether or not to the Village or a member of the same Controlled
Group as the Village) in respect of property, or borrowed money, used or to be used in
any Private Business Use.
(c) No more than the lesser of $5,000,000 or five percent of the sum of the
proceeds of each issue of the Prior Bonds and investment earnings thereon were used, and
no more than the lesser of $5,000,000 or five percent of the sum of the Sale Proceeds and
investment earnings thereon will be used, directly or indirectly, to make or finance loans
to any persons. The Village acknowledges that, for purposes of the preceding sentence,
Gross Proceeds used to pay costs of issuance and other common costs (such as capitalized
interest and fees paid for a qualified guarantee or qualified hedge) or invested in a reserve
or replacement fund must be ratably allocated among all the purposes for which Gross
Proceeds are being used.
(d) No user of the Prior Project other than a state or local governmental unit will
use more than five percent of such facilities, considered separately, on any basis other
than the same basis as the general public.
6.2. I.R.S. Form 8038-G. The information contained in the Information Return
for Tax-Exempt Governmental Obligations, Form 8038-G, is true and complete. The
Village will file Form 8038-G (and all other required information reporting forms) in a
timely manner.
6.3. Bank Qualification. (a) If so set forth in the Bond Notification, each of the
Bonds shall be designated as a “qualified tax-exempt obligation” for the purposes and
-40-
within the meaning of Section 265(b)(3) of the Code. In support of such designation, the
Village hereby certifies that (i) none of the Bonds will be at anytime a “private activity
bond” (as defined in Section 141 of the Code), (ii) as of the date hereof in calendar year
2014, other than the Bonds, no tax-exempt obligations of any kind have been issued
(x) by or on behalf of the Village, (y) by other issuers any of the proceeds of which have
been or will be used to make any loans to the Village or (z) any portion of which has been
allocated to the Village for purposes of Section 265(b) of the Code and (iii) not more than
$10,000,000 of obligations of any kind (including the Bonds) issued (x) by or on behalf
of the Village, (y) by other issuers any of the proceeds of which have been or will be used
to make any loans to the Village or (z) any portion of which has been allocated to the
Village for purposes of Section 265(b) of the Code during calendar year 2014 will be
designated for purposes of Section 265(b)(3) of the Code.
(b) The Village is not subject to Control by any entity, and there are no entities
subject to Control by the Village.
(c) On the date hereof, the Village does not reasonably anticipate that for
calendar year 2014 it will issue, have another entity issue on behalf of the Village, borrow
the proceeds of or have allocated to the Village for purposes of Section 265(b) of the
Code more than $10,000,000 Section 265 Tax-Exempt Obligations (including the Bonds).
“Section 265 Tax-Exempt Obligations” are obligations the interest on which is
excludable from gross income of the owners thereof under Section 103 of the Code,
except for private activity bonds other than qualified 501(c)(3) bonds, both as defined in
Section 141 of the Code. The Village will not, in calendar year 2014 issue, permit the
issuance on behalf of it or by any entity subject to Control by the Village (which may
hereafter come into existence), borrow the proceeds of or have allocated to it for purposes
of Section 265(b) of the Code Section 265 Tax-Exempt Obligations (including the
Bonds) that exceed the aggregate amount of $10,000,000 during calendar year 2014
unless it first obtains an opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that such issuance,
borrowing or allocation will not adversely affect the treatment of the Bonds as “qualified
tax-exempt obligations” for the purpose and within the meaning of Section 265(b)(3) of
the Code.
(d)
The Bonds have not been sold in conjunction with any other obligation.
7.1. Termination; Interest of Village in Rebate Fund. The terms and provisions
set forth in this Section shall terminate at the later of (a) 75 days after the Bonds have
been fully paid and retired or (b) the date on which all amounts remaining on deposit in
the Rebate Fund, if any, shall have been paid to or upon the order of the United States and
any other payments required to satisfy the Rebate Provisions of the Code have been made
to the United States. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of paragraphs 4.3,
4.4(c) and 7.9 hereof shall not terminate until the third anniversary of the date the Bonds
are fully paid and retired.
7.2. Separate Issue. Since a date that is 15 days prior to the date of sale of the
Bonds by the Village to the Purchaser, neither the Village nor any member of the same
Controlled Group as the Village has sold or delivered any tax-exempt obligations other
-41-
than the Bonds that are reasonably expected to be paid out of substantially the same
source of funds as the Bonds. Neither the Village nor any member of the same
Controlled Group as the Village will sell or deliver within 15 days after the date of sale of
the Bonds any tax-exempt obligations other than the Bonds that are reasonably expected
to be paid out of substantially the same source of funds as the Bonds.
7.3. No Sale of the Prior Project. (a) Other than as provided in the next
sentence, neither the Prior Project nor any portion thereof has been, is expected to be, or
will be sold or otherwise disposed of, in whole or in part, prior to the earlier of (i) the last
date of the reasonably expected economic life to the Village of the property (determined
on the date of issuance of the Bonds) or (ii) the last maturity date of the Bonds. The
Village may dispose of personal property in the ordinary course of an established
government program prior to the earlier of (i) the last date of the reasonably expected
economic life to the Village of the property (determined on the date of issuance of the
Bonds) or (ii) the last maturity of the Bonds, provided: (A) the weighted average
maturity of the Bonds financing the personal property is not greater than 120 percent of
the reasonably expected actual use of that property for governmental purposes; (B) the
Village reasonably expects on the issue date that the fair market value of that property on
the date of disposition will be not greater than 25 percent of its cost; (C) the property is
no longer suitable for its governmental purposes on the date of disposition; and (D) the
Village deposits amounts received from the disposition in a commingled fund with
substantial tax or other governmental revenues and the Village reasonably expects to
spend the amounts on governmental programs within six months from the date of the
commingling.
(b) The Village acknowledges that if property financed with the Prior Bonds is
sold or otherwise disposed of in a manner contrary to (a) above, such sale or disposition
may constitute a “deliberate action” within the meaning of the Regulations that may
require remedial actions to prevent the Bonds from becoming private activity bonds. The
Village shall promptly contact Bond Counsel if a sale or other disposition of Bondfinanced property is considered by the Village.
7.4. Purchase of Bonds by Village. The Village will not purchase any of the
Bonds except to cancel such Bonds.
7.5. First Call Date Limitation. The period between the date of Closing and the
first call date of the Bonds is not more than 10-1/2 years.
7.6. Registered Form. The Village recognizes that Section 149(a) of the Code
requires the Bonds to be issued and to remain in fully registered form in order that
interest thereon be exempt from federal income taxation under laws in force at the time
the Bonds are delivered. In this connection, the Village agrees that it will not take any
action to permit the Bonds to be issued in, or converted into, bearer or coupon form.
7.7. First Amendment. The Village acknowledges and agrees that it will not
use, or allow the Prior Project to be used, in a manner which is prohibited by the
Establishment of Religion Clause of the First Amendment to the Constitution of the
-42-
United States of America or by any comparable provisions of the Constitution of the State
of Illinois.
7.8. Future Events. The Village acknowledges that any changes in facts or
expectations from those set forth herein may result in different Yield restrictions or rebate
requirements from those set forth herein. The Village shall promptly contact Bond
Counsel if such changes do occur.
7.9. Records Retention. The Village agrees to keep and retain or cause to be kept
and retained sufficient records to support the continued exclusion of the interest paid on
the Bonds from federal income taxation, to demonstrate compliance with the covenants in
this Ordinance and to show that all tax returns related to the Bonds submitted or required
to be submitted to the Internal Revenue Service are correct and timely filed. Such records
shall include, but are not limited to, basic records relating to the Bond transaction
(including this Ordinance and the Bond Counsel opinion); documentation evidencing the
expenditure of Bond proceeds; documentation evidencing the use of Bond-financed
property by public and private entities (i.e., copies of leases, management contracts and
research agreements); documentation evidencing all sources of payment or security for
the Bonds; and documentation pertaining to any investment of Bond proceeds (including
the information required under paragraphs 4.3 and 4.4 hereof and in particular
information related to the purchase and sale of securities, SLGs subscriptions, yield
calculations for each class of investments, actual investment income received from the
investment of proceeds, guaranteed investment contracts and documentation of any
bidding procedure related thereto and any fees paid for the acquisition or management of
investments and any rebate calculations). Such records shall be kept for as long as the
Bonds are outstanding, plus three (3) years after the later of the final payment date of the
Bonds or the final payment date of any obligations or series of obligations issued to
refund directly or indirectly all or any portion of the Bonds.
7.10. Permitted Changes; Opinion of Bond Counsel. The Yield restrictions
contained in paragraph 5.2 hereof or any other restriction or covenant contained herein
need not be observed or may be changed if such nonobservance or change will not result
in the loss of any exemption for the purpose of federal income taxation to which interest
on the Bonds is otherwise entitled and the Village receives an opinion of Bond Counsel to
such effect. Unless the Village otherwise directs, such opinion shall be in such form and
contain such disclosures and disclaimers as may be required so that such opinion will not
be treated as a covered opinion or a state or local bond opinion for purposes of Treasury
Department regulations governing practice before the Internal Revenue Service
(Circular 230) 31 C.F.R. pt. 10.
7.11. Excess Proceeds. Gross Proceeds of the Bonds and investment earnings
thereon and all unspent Prior Bond Proceeds as of the date of Closing and investment
earnings thereon do not exceed by more than one percent of the Sale Proceeds of the
Bonds the amount that will be used for:
(i)
Bonds;
payment of principal of or interest or call premium on the Refunded
-43-
(ii) payment of pre-issuance accrued interest on the Bonds and interest on
the Bonds that accrues for a period up to the completion date of any capital project
for which the prior issue was issued, plus one year;
(iii)
payment of cost of issuance of the Bonds;
(iv) payment of administrative costs allocable to repaying the Refunded
Bonds, carrying and repaying the Bonds or investments of the Bonds;
(v) Prior Bond Proceeds that will be used or maintained for the
governmental purpose of the Refunded Bonds;
(vi)
interest on purpose investments; and
(vii)
costs of the Credit Facility, if any, allocable to the Bonds.
7.12. Successors and Assigns. The terms, provisions, covenants and conditions
of this Section shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns
of the Village Board and the Village.
7.13. Expectations. The Village Board has reviewed the facts, estimates and
circumstances in existence on the date of issuance of the Bonds. Such facts, estimates
and circumstances, together with the expectations of the Village as to future events, are
set forth in summary form in this Section. Such facts and estimates are true and are not
incomplete in any material respect. On the basis of the facts and estimates contained
herein, the Village has adopted the expectations contained herein. On the basis of such
facts, estimates, circumstances and expectations, it is not expected that Sale Proceeds,
investment earnings thereon or any other moneys or property will be used in a manner
that will cause the Bonds to be arbitrage bonds within the meaning of the Rebate
Provisions and the Regulations. Such expectations are reasonable and there are no other
facts, estimates and circumstances that would materially change such expectations.
The Village also agrees and covenants with the purchasers and holders of the Bonds from
time to time outstanding that, to the extent possible under Illinois law, it will comply with
whatever federal tax law is adopted in the future which applies to the Bonds and affects the
tax-exempt status of the Bonds.
The Village Board hereby authorizes the officials of the Village responsible for issuing
the Bonds, the same being the President, Village Clerk and Village Treasurer, to make such
further covenants and certifications as may be necessary to assure that the use thereof will not
cause the Bonds to be arbitrage bonds and to assure that the interest in the Bonds will be exempt
-44-
from federal income taxation. In connection therewith, the Village and the Village Board further
agree: (a) through their officers, to make such further specific covenants, representations as shall
be truthful, and assurances as may be necessary or advisable; (b) to consult with counsel
approving the Bonds and to comply with such advice as may be given; (c) to pay to the United
States, as necessary, such sums of money representing required rebates of excess arbitrage profits
relating to the Bonds; (d) to file such forms, statements, and supporting documents as may be
required and in a timely manner; and (e) if deemed necessary or advisable by their officers, to
employ and pay fiscal agents, financial advisors, attorneys, and other persons to assist the Village
in such compliance.
Section 18.
Rights and Duties of Bond Registrar and Paying Agent. If requested by the
Bond Registrar or the Paying Agent, or both, any officer of the Village is authorized to execute
standard forms of agreements between the Village and the Bond Registrar or Paying Agent with
respect to the obligations and duties of the Bond Registrar or Paying Agent hereunder. In
addition to the terms of such agreements and subject to modification thereby, the Bond Registrar
and Paying Agent by acceptance of duties hereunder agree:
(a)
to act as bond registrar, paying agent, authenticating agent, and transfer
agent as provided herein;
(b)
as to the Bond Registrar, to maintain a list of Bondholders as set forth herein
and to furnish such list to the Village upon request, but otherwise to keep such list
confidential to the extent permitted by law;
(c)
to give notice of redemption of Bonds as provided herein;
(d)
as to the Bond Registrar, to cancel and/or destroy Bonds which have been
paid at maturity or upon redemption or submitted for exchange or transfer;

as to the Bond Registrar, to furnish the Village at least annually a certificate
with respect to Bonds cancelled and/or destroyed; and
-45-
(f)
to furnish the Village at least annually an audit confirmation of Bonds paid,
Bonds outstanding and payments made with respect to interest on the Bonds.
The Village Clerk of the Village is hereby directed to file a certified copy of this
Ordinance with the Bond Registrar and the Paying Agent.
Section 19.
Taxes Previously Levied. The taxes previously levied to pay principal of
and interest on the Refunded Bonds, to the extent such principal and interest is provided for from
the proceeds of the Bonds, shall be abated. The filing of a certificate of abatement with the
County Clerk shall constitute authority and direction for the County Clerk to make such
abatement.
Section 20.
Defeasance.
Any Bond or Bonds which (a) are paid and cancelled,
(b) which have matured and for which sufficient sums have been deposited with the Paying
Agent to pay all principal and interest due thereon, or (c) for which sufficient U.S. funds and
direct U.S. Treasury obligations have been deposited with the Paying Agent or similar institution
to pay, taking into account investment earnings on such obligations, all principal of and interest
on such Bond or Bonds when due at maturity or as called for redemption, pursuant to an
irrevocable escrow or trust agreement, shall cease to have any lien on or right to receive or be
paid from the Bond Moneys or Pledged Taxes hereunder and shall no longer have the benefits of
any covenant for the registered owners of outstanding Bonds as set forth herein as such relates to
lien and security of the outstanding Bonds. All covenants relative to the Tax-exempt status of
the Bonds; and payment, registration, transfer, and exchange; are expressly continued for all
Bonds whether outstanding Bonds or not.
Section 21.
Continuing Disclosure Undertaking.
The President is hereby authorized,
empowered and directed to execute and deliver the Continuing Disclosure Undertaking (the
“Continuing Disclosure Undertaking”) in substantially the same form as now before the Village
Board, or with such changes therein as he shall approve, his execution thereof to constitute
-46-
conclusive evidence of the approval of such changes.
When the Continuing Disclosure
Undertaking is executed and delivered on behalf of the Village as herein provided, the
Continuing Disclosure Undertaking will be binding on the Village and the officers, employees
and agents of the Village, and the officers, employees and agents of the Village are hereby
authorized, empowered and directed to do all such acts and things and to execute all such
documents as may be necessary to carry out and comply with the provisions of the Continuing
Disclosure Undertaking as executed. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Ordinance, the
sole remedies for failure to comply with the Continuing Disclosure Undertaking shall be the
ability of the beneficial owner of any Bond to seek mandamus or specific performance by court
order, to cause the Village to comply with its obligations under the Continuing Disclosure
Undertaking.
Section 22.
Call of Refunded Bonds. In accordance with the redemption provisions of
the bond ordinances authorizing the Prior Bonds, the Village by the Village Board does hereby
make provision for the payment of and does hereby call (subject only to the delivery of the
Bonds) the Refunded Bonds for redemption and payment prior to maturity on their earliest
practical call dates therefor, the same being the dates set forth in the Bond Notification.
Section 23.
Municipal Bond Insurance.
In the event the payment of principal and
interest on the Bonds is insured pursuant to a municipal bond insurance policy (the “Municipal
Bond Insurance Policy”) issued by a bond insurer (the “Bond Insurer”), and as long as such
Municipal Bond Insurance Policy shall be in full force and effect, the Village and the Bond
Registrar agree to comply with such usual and reasonable provisions regarding presentment and
payment of the Bonds, subrogation of the rights of the Bondholders to the Bond Insurer when
holding Bonds, amendment hereof, or other terms, as approved by the President on advice of
counsel, his approval to constitute full and complete acceptance by the Village of such terms and
provisions under authority of this section.
-47-
Section 24.
Severability.
If any section, paragraph, clause or provision of this
Ordinance shall be held invalid, the invalidity of such section, paragraph, clause or provision
shall not affect any of the other provisions of this Ordinance.

parts thereof, in conflict herewith, are to the extent of such conflict hereby superseded; and this

SUBJECT:
Interim Building and Zoning Manager Contract Extension
Purpose
To extend a contract with GovHR for Interim Building and Zoning Manager Tom Pahnke.
Background
Mr. Pahnke has served as Interim Building and Zoning manager since late April of this year.
Board Action Previous Taken
Approval of contract with GovHR at the April 29, 2014 Special Village Board Meeting.
Discussion
The original contract with GovHR expires October 31. Staff believes the best time to begin the
recruitment process is late winter/early spring both for operational reasons and to have the bestavailable candidate pool. The contract extension maintains the same terms and conditions as the
previous contract, only amending the term.
Funding
The contract rate was established to be less than the salary and benefit costs for the full-time
Building and Zoning Manager, so there is no additional budget impact.
Recommendation
Approval of resolution amending a contract with GovHR for the Interim Building and Zoning
Manager.

and hold the Municipality and its related entities or their agents, representatives or employees
(the "Municipality Parties") harmless from and against all claims, liabilities, damages, attorney’s
fees, costs and expenses ("Losses") (a) arising out of GovTemp’s breach of its obligations under
this Agreement, (b) related to the actions or conduct of GovTemp and its related business
entities, their agents, representatives, and employees (the "GovTemp Parties"), taken or not taken
with respect to the Worksite Employees that relate to events or incidents occurring prior or
subsequent to the term of this Agreement, and (c) arising from any act or omission on the part of
GovTemp or any of the GovTemp Parties.
Section 7.02. Indemnification by the Municipality. The Municipality agrees to
indemnify, defend and hold the GovTemp Parties harmless from and against all Losses (a)
arising out of the Municipality’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement, (b) relating to
any activities or conditions associated with the Assignment, including without limitation, the
Worksite Employee workers’ compensation claims, and (c) arising from any act or omission on
the part of the Municipality or any of the Municipality Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Municipality shall have no obligations to the GovTemp Parties under this Section with
respect to Losses arising out of events or incidents occurring before or after the term of this
Agreement.
Section 7.03. Indemnification Procedures. The Party that is seeking indemnity (the
"Indemnified Party") from the other Party (the "Indemnifying Party") pursuant to this Section 7,
shall give the Indemnifying Party prompt notice of any such claim, allow the Indemnifying Party
to control the defense or settlement of such claim and cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in
all matters related thereto; provided however that, prior to the Indemnifying Party assuming such
defense and upon the request of the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall demonstrate
to the reasonable satisfaction of the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party (a) is able to
fully pay the reasonably anticipated indemnity amounts under this Section 7 and (b) takes steps

defending such potential Loss, including, without limitation, using reasonable commercial efforts
to keep the relevant Worksite Employee available. In the event the Indemnifying Party controls
the defense, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled, at its own expense, to participate in, but not
control, such defense. The failure to promptly notify the Indemnifying Party of any claim
pursuant to this Section shall not relieve such Indemnifying Party of any indemnification
obligation that it may have to the Indemnified Party, except to the extent that the Indemnifying
Party demonstrates that the defense of such action has been materially prejudiced by the
Indemnified Party’s failure to timely give such notice.

AGENDA MEMORANDUM
TO:
Village President and Board of Trustees
CC:
Village Administrator, Village Attorney and Department Heads
FROM:
Rod Zenner, Community Development Director
DATE:
October 13, 2014
AGENDA:
October 21, 2014
SUBJECT:
Minor Amendment to the Final PUD (Oswego Commons)
2840 Route 34, Vyomesh Desai (TCBY)
Project #876.14
Purpose:
To review a request for a minor amendment to the Oswego Commons PUD to allow a wall sign
that does not conform to the allowed building sign criteria for Minor Tenants within the
development.
Background:
Board Action Previously Taken:
Date
November 22, 2004
October 2, 2012
Action
Approved Final Plat by Ordinance #04-104
Approved additional signage for Verizon Wireless
by Ordinance #12-61.
The applicant, Vyomesh Desai (TCBY), is requesting a minor amendment to the Oswego
Commons PUD to allow a wall sign on the rear building elevation for the existing TCBY frozen
yogurt business at 2840 Route 34. The Zoning ordinance allows for signage on building facades
where a public entrance exists, or where fronting on a public right of way. Further, the Oswego
Commons PUD requirements allow wall signs to conform to the following sign criteria (per
Ordinance 01-23):
2840 Route 34, Vyomesh Desai (TCBY)
Minor Amendment to the Final PUD
Project #876.14
October 13, 2014
Page 2
The proposed sign is of a different style, consisting of a cabinet style frame design.
Discussion:
The proposed sign does not meet the PUD zoning criteria of utilizing individual channel
lettering, or the zoning ordinance limitation as to placement. The size of the sign conforms to a
limitation of 1 square foot of signage per 1 lineal foot of tenant space. The tenant space is 22
feet in width, whereas the proposed sign is 20 square feet.
The applicant has expressed his goal of adding visibility for his business, and minimizing costs
of added signage, and therefore is requesting this signage to address those issues.
Per staff review of this proposal, the first modification requested would allow for signage on the
rear façade of the building. The Village has allowed signage on rear facades in such large PUDs
where said facade faces a circulator drive within the development with a restriction of being no
greater than 24 inches in height, and therefore we feel that it would be consistent with prior
actions to grant an amendment for the placement of signage on the rear façade in this case.
Regarding the type of sign proposed, we believe the intent of the regulations is to maintain
consistency among the development, and therefore we do not believe that the granting a cabinet
style sign would further this intent, and therefore are not in support of this style of sign.
Staff recommends denial of the petitioner’s proposal but recommends approval of a sign on the
rear of the building consistent with other signage approvals within the Oswego Commons
development consisting of individual letters no greater than 24 inches in height.
The Plan Commission is not required to review requests for Minor Amendments.

Recommendation:
Staff recommends denial of the request as proposed.
However, in the alternative, staff is presenting the First Read of the Ordinance approving a
minor amendment to the Oswego Commons PUD allowing a wall sign on the rear façade at
2840 Route 34 that conforms to the PUD sign regulations (individual lettering). Staff
recommends waiving the second read of the ordinance and approving the minor
amendment.
