PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER THE FEDERAL REVENUE
SHARING BUDGET FOR 1986
Mr. Cook: We have attached a memorandum which details those
items that were reviewed in the Budget for Revenue Sharing,
along with several items that were raised in the Budget
for possible consideration. We would recommend this year
that all of these items be held for consideration. As soon
as we get an indication of the amount of actual revenue sharing
to be received we will be bringing back a proposed priorization
in 1986, quarter by quarter, and we would then take the items
as far as the monies that we may receive. We know the revenue
sharing will be reduced, we do not know how much, and rather
than approve a formal total, we would recommend that we do
it on a priority basis, and therefore we will bring that
back to you.
Mayor Verbic: Is there anyone in the audience that would
like to participate in this public hearing. Seeing none,
I would call for a motion to close the public hearing.
Councilman Andersen made a motion, seconded by Councilwoman
Shales to close the public hearing. Yeas: Councilmen Andersen,
Gilliam, Moylan, Shales, Van De Voorde, Waters and Mayor
Verbic. Nays: None.

VOLUME L 941
PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER THE CITY OF ELGIN
1986 BUDGET
Mr. Cook: The Council, as a Committee of the Whole, has
held several hearings on the budget , has received and made
a number of changes, all of which are incorporated in the
Item under H ( 3 ) . Staff at this point has nothing else to
offer in the public hearing.
Gunnar Carlson: The purpose of this presentation is to convince
the present members of the City Council that the continued
imposition of this tax is unfair to the Area 2 property owners
and should be abolished, and it should be abolished no matter
what your decisions may be on other parking areas.
The above is quoted from Judge Ermeritus Ernest Akemann's
presentation on this subject in 1984 . It is also appropriate
for the following:
City of Elgin Special Service Area Number Two Taxing District
has been the subject of much discussion since 1977. The
Special Service Area was established by City of Elgin Ordinance
T10-77 , September 8, 1977, to provide special municipal services
to said area in addition to services provided to the City
generally. Included in said services shall be the design,
construction and operation of a multi-level public parking
facility and all things incidental thereto, including acquisition
of land and construction of street improvements.
This was done after a public hearing on the question, held
after due notice etc. , from minutes of the public hearing
it is noted that, the following property owners or tenants
appeared at the public hearing and objected to the potential
tax to be imposed upon properties located in the district.
Pete Andersen, Frank Ciacco, Rose Hawkins, Earl Keeney and
Paul Warren. The following owners appeared and requested
that the proposed special service area be formed as proposed:
George Perucco, Harold Seigle and Paul Zumkeller.
On Page 2 of the minutes of the public hearing it is noted
that Mr. Pete Peterson stated "I don't believe that the maximum
rate would ever be lowered, prices are not coming down. "
Mr. Nelson replied, we are talking about a special tax for
this facility only, you cannot levy this tax for any other
purpose. Mr. Petersen stated, but you have to consider mainten-
ance costs and part of the maintenance costs are going to
have to come out of revenue. I don't think there is any
businessman who can predicate the future of his business
on this kind of variable. If the professional people in
the City of Elgin were to say, well if things work out alright ,
fine, we will take the higher salary, but if things don't
work out we will take the lower salary. I don 't think you
would redicate your salary on a variable between $1.10 and
$4 .00 and we are having to predicate our income on that same
thing.
942 VOLUME L
On Page 3 of the same minutes is the following: Harold Siegle
Stated, "I feel we need this parking lot , it ' s very important
to our city and downtown. I have reservations about this
parking lot and I note from the comments you fellows have
reservations too. I think that with all the shortcomings
concerning the mall that I have talked about that all of
us here, property owners and all, feel an inequity in the
taxation. I thin people adjacent to the mall should pay
a higher rate than people on the perimeter of the mall.
In fairness I thin this is the way it should be assessed.
In looking over my criticism of the City, I think the need
is so great that we should support it , take our chances that
the $4 .00 that you start with may go down to $1.50. I think
they will produce revenue and let ' s all support this . " This
was Mr. Siegle' s words.
Section 2C of the Ordinance states that no petitions signed
by 51% of electors of the districts establishment were presented
in the 30 days period following the hearing nor, 51% of property
owners of record included within the proposed special service
area objecting to the formation of said special service are
or the levy of taxes as proposed.
It was necessary to engage in extensive, expensive litigation
to refute the above. Easily in fact , on the electors after
eliminating 19 of the 40 electors claimed by the city as
being residents of the Douglas Hotel.
On some highly technical points the court ruled that a number
of property owners ' signatures were defective and they could
not be clarified or affirmed. About a dozen charitable and
religious organization properties were counted as favoring
the project although most stated they wanted to be considered
neutral. There was one church whose pastor wrote and requested
that they not be counted.
It should be noted that there was no provision for a vote
for or against the project . Everyone was counted as being
in favor unless he signed petitions opposing the matter.
The religious and charitable groups were also told by the
city that they would not be charged. They are not, by law,
exempt from assessments for special services.
In Section 5. of the ordinance it provides that a tax not
to exceed an annual rate of $4 . 00 per $100, 00 of assessed
evaluation, as equalled, is authorized to be levied against
real and personal property included in this special service
area.
In Section 6 the ordinance provides that in accordance with
the applicable statute the corporate authorities of the City
of Elgin shall be the governing Body of the City of Elgin
Special Service Area Number Two.
VOLUME. L 943
All of this was proposed to help save the downtown Elgin
from economic deterioration, et the properties expecting
to benefit most from the construction and operation of the
parking facility, those in Fountain Square Plaza, were deliberately,
at the request of the owners, left out of the taxing district .
The parking ramp was constructed and placed in operation
after the Circuit and Appellate Courts failed to find the
ordinance invalid. The City of Elgin acquired the property
of the Elgin Trades Council and demolished its building.
To help the Trandes Council relocate, the City arranged a
$400, 000 plus industrial revenuebond loan so that the Trades
Council could acquire another building near the tollroad,
two miles or so from Elgin's Central Business District.
This also enabled a statewide teachers union organization,
owners of that building, to leave Elgin completely.
The process of arranging industrial revenue bonds to help
firms or individuals relocate businesses has also been used
to aid one of Elgin' s oldest firms to get out of the central
part of the City. Such a bond issue in the amount of $1, 850,000
was arranged for the Elgin Lumber & Supply Company, or Seigle' s
Home & Building Centers for the construction of a new facility
on the northwest edge of Elgin.
These arrangements have caused a friend of mine to remark
that the City of Elgin reminds him of Zsa Zsa Gabor of whom
it is said, she liked to do charity work among the rich.
The original concept of the Spring Street Parking ramps contemplated
that , in today's business and government jargon, the facility
would be a profit center. It would generate income from
rent of retail store spaces on the Spring Street side of
the structure in addition to user fees for parking operations.
These revenues, it was claimed, would, in addition to paying
operating costs, take care of interest and the annual $100,000
principal payment on the outstanding bonds. Judge Emeritus
Akemann, in an extensive presentation made to the Council
a year ago pointed out that the structure as constructed
was not that which was proposed in the promotions, no store
spaces were provided. Further it was pointed out that other
uses and expenses have occurred not in original prospectuses .
Last year I called the attention of the Council to the fact
that the combined wisdom of the directors of three of Elgin's
financial institutions had recently resulted in the construction
and opening of 3 additional drive-in braches in outlying
areas of Elgin. These of course made it possible fore more
and more bank customers to do banking without coming downtown.
This would reduce need to use the new parking ramps.
944 VOLUME L
Many street parking meters have been hooded and use of the
spaces declared free. Meters have been removed in major lots
in the near-downtown area encouraging more and more motorists
to avoid the Spring Street Parking Deck.
Although the establishing ordinance for the parking venture
known as Elgin Service Area Number Two specifies that the
City officials of Elgin constitute the governing body, I
have not been able to find any minutes of meetings of the
governing body or specific records of actions of that body
relating to Elgin Service Area Number Two. Such questions
as authority for no fees when the parking deck is fully occupied
on Sundays was not found in the record. In some large cities
this would have the appearance of granting favors or rewarding
a few or groups for past favors. With the recent turmoil
in an area nearby about displaying a religious symbol, the
christian cross on a municipal structure, we should hope
that no activists would observe that congregations of certain
christian churches are receiving special services without
charge from the City of Elgin.
The levy now proposed for 1985 is nominal and ridiculous.
It does not justify the time of all the staffs that must
spread it over the properties of service are two or of the
gestation involved in eventually making the collection.
While it is claimed that the amounts proposed result from
studied delibrations it is apparent that the amount is arbitrary.
A year ago the Council appeared to agree that the amount
of the levy after abatements would be $25, 000 and intimated
that future years would hold at that figure. Ordinance T4-
85 comes up with a figure of $26,225 increased to $26 ,490
by an item of 265, 1% loss of collections. The 26,225 just
happens to be last year' s agreed amount plus a shade under
5%. Under the trust in taxation statutes any cases where
increases over previous year exceed 5% require that public
hearings must be held before adoption. The basis ordinance
T10-77 has not been amended and still permits the $4 .00 per
hundred levy. This could easily be invoked again unless this
Elgin Special Service Area Taxing District is abolished by
whatever means are appropriate.
Property owners may have their assessed valuations reduced
by appeals to the Board of Review, but that, with respect
to this levy, only changes the allocation between tax paying
units within Area Two.
Ackemann Bros. Inc. properties assessed valuation have been
reduced in recent years and this year the Home Federal Savings
& Loan Assn. has just succeeded in pursuading the Kane County
Board of Review to reduce its equalized assessed valuation
by $141, 332 to a new total of $799, 920. This will make this
property' s assessment for Special Service Area Two approximately
equal to that of the Illinois Bell Telephone Co. , who equalized
assessed valuation is $803,291 for 1985.
i
VOLUME L 945
It should be noted here again that the Telephone Company
can derive absolutely no benefit from the presence of the
parking deck. There is no way a subscriber can confront
a person at the Telephone Company property at 255 East Chicago
Street to transact any business so the deck means nothing
to that company. Paying it 's Special Service Area Two Assessment
is a pure gift to the City of Elgin. However, the property
of Home Deferal Savings and Loan is directly across Spring
Street from the parking facility and could be a prime beneficiary.
The whole concept and operation of Elgin Special Service
Area Two is replete with examples of such anomalies. They
illustrate that the real beneficiaries are the owners of
automobiles throughout the City have occasions to visit the
downtown area.
I hereby request that the City Council of Elgin abate the
entire levy for City of Elgin Special Service Area Two for
1986 and promptly abolish this special tax assessment district
for all time.
It is hoped that this can be done without the petty rancor
of individuals of the Council that has been apparent in previous
considerations of this matter.
Judge Ernest Akemann 's view expressed a year ago in his report
and mine are identical as follows : I do not believe that
in good conscience you should continue the area two taxing
district for even one more year.
Mayor Verbic: Thank you Mr. Carlson. Are there any additional
comments relative to this public hearing.
Dan Fox, 890 Douglas Avenue, President of the Northeast Neighborhood
Association: First of all let me say that the northeast neighbors
take great pride in the City of Elgin, and in our neighborhood.
We support community activities and it is with this same
spirit that I speak to you tonight .
As you are all aware we have some grave concerns about the
North End Bridge proposal. Whether the route is the Wing
Park to Summit , stage 1 Slade Avenue design, or the current
Big Timber to Congdon proposal, we believe that the bridge
is an ill conceived, unnecessary 10 million dollar white
elephant . The traffic conjestion projected for the City's
already built five bridges does not come to be.
The public safety is also a significant one. Fortunately,
you have addressed and apparently solved this problem by
funding a second ambulance for the eastside, that puts two
ambulances on each side of the river. Also the new Summit
946 VOLUME L
Street fire station gives the City and our neighborhood great
emergency protection.
If not to meet the traffic needs, or to provide needed public
safety, then I ask you why the bridge. Why spend 10 million
dollars when you don 't need to. It is my understanding that
3 million dollars offered by the County is earmarked for
the bridge project only. If this is true I don't believe
you should be pressured to spend 7 million more to get that
3 .
I wonder if the citizens of the City are prepared to see
their taxes go up $50.00 to $100.00 per year. It is easier
to pay for taxes when the money is going to something worthwhile.
I supported and worked for the U-46 school referendum, that
benefits our children as well as the entire community. Building
a bridge which costs so much and benefits so few, if any,
I don't believe is a prudent decision.
Our neighbors to the north in East Dundee and West Dundee
have a population of 6100 and have one bridge. Carpentersville
has a population of 23 , 300 and has one bridge. St . Charles,
our neighbors to the south have 18, 600 people and two bridges,
and Aurora, more similar to ourselves has 82 ,000 and five
bridges and the tollroad.
Engin' s 60,000 plus population also has five bridges and
the rollroad. This bridge seems to serve Dundee and Sleepy
Hollow more than it will the majority of people here in Elgin.
All of these towns and cities have thriving downtown business
districts and none of these bridges go from totally residential
areas. This proposed bridge by-passes our downtown and goes
through an established, beautiful, well maintained neighborhood.
The engineering firm that is about to receive another contract
for $350,000, for the Big Timber/Congdon design, stated last
February that this bridge was not justifiable. As you know
from the questions that I have given you all previously we
have presented you with a series of questions and concerns
that I hope you will address.
There are several possible suggestions that we have in lieu
of this bridge that we can share with you at an appropriate
time, but what I am asking you tonight at the very least
is to table this issue, and put it to the people of Elgin
in the form of a referendum. Ask all of the people what
they want and what they are willing to pay for it . I appreciate
your time and your consideration on this issue. Thank you.
VOLUME L 947
Mayor Verbic: Mr. Fox, I would state that we did have two
surveys done, I believe in 1977 and 1980, and this question
was provided to every citizen in the City of Elgin, and the
overall response was 70% positive, 20o negative and 10% undecided.
Mr. Fox: No money was ever attributed or attached to those
surveys. I would think that if the people were asked if
they were going to pay $50.00 to $100.00 per year to pay
for this bridge, thats what we want to find out and if that
is the case then your decision is correct, but I don 't think
you will find that to be true.
Mayor Verbic: I do think your figures on taxes may be out
of line. The cost to an assessed value home of $70,000 for
a $6.6 million dollar bond issue, including interest , would
be an increase of about $30.00 per year, which is quite a
difference from what you stated.
Dr. Robert Shoenthal, 316 Congdon: If you folks really think
that we need a north end bridge, I think there may be other
ways of utilizing a bridge, such as the bridge across the
tollway. For example, at Sherman Hospital we have dates
that members of the staff are given a card and in lieu of
paying a quarter each time they have to visit the hospital
to see a patient . There is no reason why the State cannot
be approached, or whoever is responsible, that perhaps this
priviledge be given to us and a certain amount of finances
be turned over to the State. The cards could be obtained
at the time the vehicle stickers are obtained for an additional
fee. I don't think that anyone would object to that for
using that bridge. I think this is one way that we could
utilize an existing bridge that is well maintained.
Mayor Verbic: At the time the Kimball Street Bridge was
torn down for approximately one year' s time, I met with the
tollway officials trying to obtain permission to pay the
authority to use the bridge for the Elgin citizens. We were
denied and given a flat no because their charter does not
allow anything of this nature. We have tried on other occasions
to discuss the use of this bridge with them and the same
answer was given to us that we were not permitted under any
circumstances to use this bridge in exchange for payment
to the Tollway Authority. So this has been tried and there
is no ability to use the under portion of the tollway or
the tollway for the use of our citizens.
Dr. Shoenthal: People who I know who have businesses on
Davis Road use that bridge three or four times a day, and
they have no complaint whatsoever about paying, they would
much rather pay that 30� each time they go through that gate
948 VOLUME L
than have their taxes increased.
Jim Cook: Mayor, I would like to make a couple of comments
with regard to comments that Mr. Fox has raised. There are
two issues, one that the report which Mr. Fox has reference
to was in February. That report was a draft report , unsigned,
submitted for review by staff with regard to certain issues,
which we looked at . After that report was reviewed, Lochner
went back, he altered and presented a third route which showed
some of the advantages of the first two and voided some and
that was the item which you reviewed at the meeting of March
llth, and which after review, Council selected the Congdon
route. Primarily, as he pointed out in his March report ,
in comparison with the Slade, he still as an engineer, recommended
to the Council that in terms of overall costs, the Slade
choice would be less expensive in his opinion than the Congdon,
but because of Expo Park possible traffic and other things,
the Council, as I read the minutes at that time, determined
that the benefits of the Congdon Avenue were such that they
outweighed the extra dollars as opposed to the detriment
that would be done by the Slade and that appears to be what
was the final decision factors that went into that site selection.
The report which Mr. Fox raised was never submitted to the
City Council, but after it was reviewed by staff Lochner
went back and amended that report, and produced additional
information.
Raymond Frazier, 312 Congdon: As I read the draft of February
and I recognize it was just a draft , some of the negative
comments that Lochner made were concerning the noise impact
and the adverse effect on property values on Congdon, and
that is still going to be a negative, even in the draft that
you accepted.
The point that I wanted to make, I am concerned about future
planning. Mayor Verbic has said that only 1% of Elginites
use the tollway bridge and yet 100 yards to the south we
are going to spend ten million dollars, or six million dollars
to build a bridge, that people right now are now using when
asked how many people he thinks are going to use this new
bridge, we don 't know. We are going to build a bridge and
then find out how many are going to use it . We want to tie
into the Expo Park and yet we are going to tie in with a
three lane road down Congdon Avenue with a four lane bridge.
I am sure that five years from now you are going to come
back and say that we are going to have to widen Congdon because
the projected traffic is such.
Somewhere along the line I read that the projected traffic
on Big Timber will be over 30, 000 cars, up from 8,000 to
30, 000. If there are 30,000 cars on Big Timber there will
be 30, 000 on Congdon, so that will not remain a three way
street .
VOLUME L 949
I think you should tell us if you plan on doing that and
if you don 't plan on doing that then I think the people should
know that you are not looking ahead. At least that is the
way it appears to us on Congdon.
Jim Cook: Again I would like to say that at the present
time, as I said, there are no plans for four-lane there.
The first step that would be done at most would be a three-
lane. I don 't expect even that in the initial stages. I
can take you to a lot of places in the country and show you
two-lane roads that fit into a four-lane bridge. I also
think that it is entirely likely that at some time in the
future that two feet or four feet on either side of that
road may have to be added and you may go to a four-lane road.
There is sufficient right-of-way to do that , without taking
any property, or condemning any property. I don't look for
that for quite a long time, I think to say that it is never
going to happen is something that no one in their right mind
could ever say about any street in this town, but at the
present time what is going to happen on Shoe Factory, certain
amounts of traffic that would be coming from Shoe Factory
would turn south on Dundee, and use Liberty, others would
turn north and go north to the tollroad, others would come
west . Right now, after two months I certainly do not have
the traffic counts to tell you what it is going to be. I
can give you some fairly educated projections as to what
I think the impact will be and what we are planning for right
now, but if we start tonight we are not going to have a bridge
there in 3 years and are certainly not going to start planning
four lane roads now, until such time as traffic would justify
and that is quite a long way down the line in my opinion.
I think if they start Expo Park, as anticipated this Spring,
is a year to two years away. I think the Council owes itself
and owes the community the kind of planning that says you
start to the bridge now. I think the bridge quite frankly
is too late getting started if you are going to do it on
a planning basis to have it ready when it is needed, but
no, I don't at this time see a need for a four-lane Congdon
Avenue for now and for sometime to come. I don 't want anyone
in this room to think that I have said that there won't be
four-lanes on Congdon, because I cannot see that far in the
future. I do think that the northern part of this city is
going to grow, both on the eastside and the westside, and
certainly if the community grows, conditions change, you
are going to have to look at that .
Mayor Verbic asked if there was anyone else who wished to
participate in the public hearing. Having no response the
Mayor asked for a motion to close the public hearing. Councilman
Waters made a motion, seconded by Councilman Andersen to
close the public hearing. Yeas: Councilmen Andersen, Gilliam,

ORDINANCE PASSED ADOPTING THE 1986 BUDGET
IN LIEU OF PASSAGE OF AN APPROPRIATION
ORDINANCE
Councilman Andersen made a motion, seconded by Councilman
Gilliam to pass the aforementioned ordinance.
Councilman Waters: When we talked about the budget in the
Committee of the Whole Meeting, and I indicated at that time
that I would appreciate having the North End Bridge separated
from the 1986 budget . Staff has informed me that the way
to do that is to move to have that deleted. Therefore I
would move that Account Number 9902 in the sum of $9,600,000
for the North End Bridge be deleted from the motion just
made.
Councilwoman Moylan: I will second that motion.
Councilman Andersen: There is a motion with a second on
the floor now.
Counsel Jentsch: His motion is in the nature of an amendment
to that motion. If the amendment is passed then the bridge
amount would be deleted from the budget .
Mayor Verbic: First we shall vote on the amendment .
Yeas: Councilmen Moylan and Waters. Nays: Councilmen Andersen,
Gilliam, Shales, Van De Voorde and Mayor Verbic.

PETITION 61-85 REQUESTING A B-1 COMMUNITY
BUSINESS DISTRICT SPECIAL USE FOR A CHURCH
PROPERTY LOCATED AT 308 DUNDEE AVENUE BY
THE APOSTOLIC ASSEMLY IN THE FAITH OF CHRIST
JESUS ------DENIED
Jim Cook: This has been recommended for denial by the Land
Use Committee on a vote of 5 to 2 .
Robert Lauder, 11 Lockman Circle: I just want to point out
that I don't have any financial interest in this property,
but these people have approached the City twice now to try
and get a useage for their church. The only objections that
I have heard is that it would contribute to traffic conjestion,
and parking problems.
They have a membership of 30 people, and before petitioning
the second time they went out an bought a van to transport
their people. These folks want to buy this property and
establish a church and I believe serve the lateno population.
Also they have interest in purchasing the property next
door, which I understand is available, and the lady who owns
the property is willing to let them use the property for
parking in the interim.
It is my own personal opinion it would be in the interest
of the Cityto have this property occupied, and used by a
group such as this.

Section 2. Terms of the Bonds. For the purpose of
financing the acquisition, rehabilitation and equipping of the
Project, there are hereby authorized to be issued the Bonds in
the aggregate principal amount of $2,500,000, which bonds shall
be designated "City of Elgin, Illinois Economic Development
Revenue Bonds (Butler PharmaPac, Inc. Project) , Series 1985" ;
shall bear interest from their date; shall be issuable only as
registered bonds without coupons in the denomination of $1,000
and integral multiples thereof; shall be initially dated the
date of delivery thereof when originally issued; and shall
mature as to principal on December 1, 2000, and shall be
subject to mandatory redemption pursuant to the terms of the
sinking fund provided in the Indenture in the principal amount
of $42,000.00 on the first day of each March, June, September
and December, commencing March 1, 1986, to and including
September 1, 2000.
Subject to the provisions for redemption set forth in
Article III of the Indenture, the Bonds shall bear interest on
the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date thereof at an
interest rate (the "Floating Rate") , subject to adjustment as
herein specified, equal to ( i) sixty percent (60%) of the rate
of interest announced from time to time by First Union National
Bank, in Charlotte, North Carolina ( "FUNB" ) , to be its prime
rate (the "Prime Rate" ) plus two percent ( 2%) per annum to and
including March 30, 1986, and (ii) sixty percent (60%) of the
Prime Rate thereafter, payable quarterly on the first day of
each March, June, September and December, commencing March 1,

other amounts payable thereunder . Any change in the Prime Rate
shall be effective on the date of any such change. Interest
shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year, and shall
be payable for the actual number of days elapsed. The
principal of, interest on, and all other amounts payable under
the Bonds are payable in any coin or currency of the United
States of America which on the respective dates of payment

private debts, solely from said special fund, to the registered

they appear on the Bond registration books maintained by the

Trustee, as Bond Registrar, or, if requested by such registered
owner, by wire transfer, to the account of the registered owner
thereof specified by notice from such owner to the Bond
Registrar and noted on said Bond registration books.
In the event the Issuer should fail to make any
payments required on the Bonds, the item or installment so in
default shall continue as an obligation of the Issuer until the
amount in default shall have been fully paid, and the Issuer
shall pay the same with interest on overdue principal and, to
the extent permitted by law, on overdue interest at the Prime
Rate plus two percent per annum.
If at any time after December 1, 1985, there should be
any change in the maximum statutory rate of Federal income tax
applicable to the taxable income in excess of $100,000 of FUNB
under the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as amended (as the
same may be in effect from time to time, the "FUNB Tax Rate" ) ,
then the Floating Rate will be adjusted, effective as of the
effective date of the change in the FUNB Tax Rate, by
multiplying the Floating Rate by a fraction, the denominator of
which is 100% minus the FUNB Tax Rate on December 1, 1985, and
the numerator of which is 100% minus the FUNB Tax Rate after
giving effect to such change.
So long as any of the principal amount of any Bonds or
interest thereon or any other amount payable thereunder remains
unpaid, if ( i) any law, rule, regulation or executive order is
enacted or promulgated by any public body or governmental
agency which changes the basis of taxation on payments to any
holder or former holder of any Bonds of principal, interest, or
any other amount payable pursuant to any Bond, including
without limitation the imposition of any excise tax or
surcharge, but excluding changes in the rates which are
applicable to the overall net income of any holder or former
holder of any Bonds, or ( ii) as a result of action by any
public body or governmental agency, payment is required to be
made by, or any Federal, state or local income tax deduction is
disallowed to, any holder or former holder of any Bonds by
reason of ownership of, borrowing money to invest in, or
receiving principal, interest, or any other amount from any
Bonds, the Issuer agrees to reimburse and indemnify each such
holder and former holder upon demand, but only from amounts
paid by the Company under the Promissory Note and deposited in
the Bond Fund established under the Indenture, against any
loss, cost, charge or expense with respect to any such change,
payment or loss of deduction. Any such holder or former holder
of any of the Bonds shall receive payment under this paragraph
only after furnishing a written demand to the Trustee, together
with evidence satisfactory to the Trustee that any such loss,
cost, charge or expense has been incurred.

RESOLUTION ADOPTED AUTHORIZING SUPPLEMENTAL
AGREEMENT FOR ENGINERRING SERVICES WITH
H. W. LOCHNER
Councilwoman Shales: I was taken back when I received that
report by Lochner. I really would like some explanation of
how he came to the conclusion that we read and then changed
his mind. I think this Phase I is going to give us some of
the information we need to know as to whether this bridge
is really going to work. At the same time can a citizen 's
group, such as Mr. Cook was talking about at the Chamber
of Commerce Meeting, be looking at this North End Bridge.
Jim Cook: Yes, the contract is written to that it is interruptable
at each of the phases, so he can do the preliminary study,
bring in to you the report that shows preliminary plans,
drawings and the precise demands and a better cost estimate,
and at that time before he can proceed to final plans and
specifications, bids and acquisition of property, Council
will have to concur in the moving ahead to that step, and
at any point along that line, if we proceed with the type
of citizen 's study it can be stopped at that point or amended
at that point if the Council sees fit .
Councilwoman Shales: I still have two concerns, the cost
of the project for the little return, I do think we need
a north end bridge and I don 't think that the tollway is
any kind of a solution for our traffic problem, but I do
have a great understanding and concern about the cost and
the impact on the neighborhood. I would like to minimize
that as much as possible.
Councilman Van De Voorde: There are two members of this
Council that were not on the Council when some of the presentation
was given, I being one of them, and I would appreciate it
if this firm could address some of the questions that some
of the Council members have.
Councilwoman Moylan: Will Mr. Lochner be doing traffic studies.
Jim Cook: I would not expect him to do it , but we could
get them done.
Councilwoman Moylan: That is the main reason that I have
consistently voted against the north end bridge. Traffic
studies that were done two years ago did not bear that weight
of the huge expense for this bridge. If there were new traffic
pt»dies_ I would be interested to, see them, I would want
990 VOLUME L
to see them. I want to see the impact on the neighborhood.
. Mr. Fox: I want to thank Councilwoman Shales for suggesting
this, the only point I was going to raise is if it would
be possible if the engineering study was to go through if
some representatives from our neighborhood association and
the rest of the city could be part of this so maybe we could
help too.
Councilwoman Shales: That is what I was suggesting by way
of a citizen's group.
Jim Cook: A traffic study can be done but it will be hard
to pin down the figures because the projections from Expo
will not be there and it will be a extremely difficult type
of subjective traffic report . A traffic analysis of existing
traffic is not really going to give you the details because
right now you have traffic that is going south, or you have
traffic that is coming in from 19 and coming in on Summit
and going south that presumably would go north and riot go
through the downtown if they had this alternative, but we
can do some traffic studies and do some traffic generation
as to how much traffic is coming and do some projecting.
Mayor Verbic: There are so many uncertain things and Jim
you point out a lot of them. There is Expo and you are not
going to be able to project how much that will generate.
Councilman Van De Voorde: The Lochner study stated this
was a much needed bridge and I am sure they must have some
traffic information they could give us .
Councilwoman Moylan: Just see what they have.
Councilman Andersen made a motion, seconded by Councilman
Gilliam to pass the aforementioned resolution. Yeas:
Councilmen Andersen, Gilliam, Moylan, Shales, Van De Voorde,

John Fender, -1220 Cedar Avenue: Our neighbors ta"'the:-mast
have 'some serious problems, some they have: sole :-,~sS has.
the water problem, they pump it out.-'70f- -Lake Michigan, ..as-
we get ours out of the river. Hoffman Estates- ran -out-of -
land, they annexed up to our easterh borders almost. -TI ug
have Zxpo Park which seems to be tied in :with the-north3= nd
bridge and I am' not sure that 'I understand that, -but -,.they
also had 8 problem with sewerage, : `guess we- :are going o
get rid of their sewerage for them;`-the tvlg.in` "Sanit'i-try:=Dis�r'ic;t
is corhmitted to do that.
Mayor Verbic: The Metropolitan Sanitary District-six.
Mr, Fender: They have another pro `16m -t:& °the eem- t`, t-hey
need "a garbage dump. They work all 'suMmer on a-`nev, s te,i= .
as the -Courier has carefully informed us,. Monday- the -Ax:l;in.gton
Herald revealed a secret, the `bale--fill site will 'be An
Bartlett. Now Bartlet does not really want -'the tral.e-€-f1l ,*
but they decided they need -to -control -the place--where they
will dump their garbage. The $540,000 projected operating
fees a year helps Bartlett swallow th-4 -dump.
I am afraid that we in Elgin have -jus't"been- given _a .lesson
in a war that our neighbors to the�'e:ast hope is over.:hefore .
we losers realize it has even stAtted. 'Elgln''s'p�ableTa with
the bale-fill site is that it is virtually on our doorstep.
