RECOGNIZE PERSONS PRESENT
Phyllis Burnstein addressed the Council regarding the growing population of feral cats in the
City. She stated that this is a quality of life issue. She urged the Council to enact an ordinance
which would require residents to collar, tag, vaccinate, provide humane living conditions, and
limit the number of cats per household. She stated that Cook County recently enacted a Feral
Cat Ordinance.
Judy Robnett stated that in July, Charlotte, North Carolina, began implementing what Doug
Heaton has been speaking about at previous meetings. This shows that what he has suggested to
the Council can be done and is being done in other municipalities. She also said that an
ordinance similar to the one passed by Hazelton, Pennsylvania is being introduced by a board
member at tonight’s Village of Carpentersville meeting. She stated that these are examples of
local government standing up for the United States. She asked that the Council please be
patriotic.
Jennifer Almanza thanked the City staff and Council for changing the 15 minute parking limits
on Fulton Street to 90 minutes. She said the seniors really appreciated that. She also stated that
VOLUME LXXI SEPTEMBER 27, 2006

she has written to the City Manager and all the Councilmembers about concerns the Senior
Service Associates and some of the seniors have expressed to her about the Fulton Street parking
deck. She is disappointed that she hasn’t received a response from anyone. She understands that
there is going to be a walk-through of the parking garage tomorrow.
Rose White stated that she wants to work together to find a resolution to stop the injustice
bestowed upon the African-American and Latin communities. She stated that they feel the time
has come for this to cease. As a taxpayer, part of her taxes go towards providing for her safety
and protection and not the belittlement or berating of her character. She announced that Bishop
Blalark is holding a meeting Monday, October 2 at 7 p.m. at his church to discuss a possible
resolution of this matter.
Pastor Tom Severson of the Vineyard Church thanked Elgin for allowing the HELP ministry to
continue operating its year-round overnight shelter temporarily. He said that HELP is part of the
solution – not the problem, and it hasn’t cost the citizens of Elgin a penny. The HELP ministry
makes Elgin a safer place, and it’s a partnership Elgin needs. He asked that the Council consider
making HELP’s year-round overnight shelter permanent.
Marie Piraino stated that she also wanted to call attention to the problem regarding feral cats.
She stated that the wild cats are invasive and enter garages, houses, and are frequently fighting.
She said that feral cats are a source of disease and children, seniors, and people with
compromised immune systems are particularly at risk. She presented a petition with
approximately 45 signatures requesting that immediate action be taken for removal of feral cats
and the enactment of a cat ordinance.
Councilmember Figueroa stated that something has to be done. He asked that staff research the
situation and bring a proposal back to the Council for its consideration.
Doug Heaton would like for the City to try a new program to enhance background checks on
prospective employees. This program was introduced in July and is called IMAGE (Ice Mutual
Agreement between Government and Employers). It makes use of federal data to cross check
immigration documents and match social security numbers. He stated that he called the
Director’s office in Washington, D. C. and was assured that municipalities are eligible to
participate in this program. He believes Elgin would benefit from this program.
Councilmember Rodgers stated that although she didn’t speak to Jennifer Almanza directly, she
did respond to her letter by leaving a message for her. She also stated that she will be at the
meeting on Monday night that Rose White referred to.

ORDINANCE G71-06 PASSED AMENDING CHAPTER 2.08 OF THE ELGIN
MUNICIPAL CODE, 1976, AS AMENDED, ENTITLED "CITY COUNCIL"
Councilmember Figueroa made a motion, seconded by Councilmember Walters, to pass the
proposed ordinance.
Bennie Sowers read a statement, which was in response to a newspaper article regarding moving
the “Recognize Persons Present” portion to the end of the Council agenda. She stated that she
believes this contemplated change is sending the wrong message to the citizens. She stated that
the way the article reads implies that the developers’ time is more important than the citizens
concerns. She believes that all matters of citizen concern are City Council business. She hopes
that this isn’t the beginning of a trend that will eventually lead to the silencing of the voices of
the citizens of this community in this forum. Many citizens believe that their concerns are not
important to the people they have elected to Council positions and that the perception of some
citizens is that some members of the Council believe they are better than the citizens. She stated
that this is the Council’s opportunity to show respect and true leadership to the citizens of Elgin
by treating them as equal partners in the total process and stop inciting insignificant,
controversial issues directed at the taxpaying citizens. Citizens would like to have the Council’s
energy focused on enforcing the laws of this City relating to a variety of hot button issues. She
also reminded the Council that these are the same people many of the members of this body will
be asking to re-elect them so that they can continue serving on this Council. She concluded by
saying that she doesn’t think that taking this unfriendly action will earn the Council any positive
points.
SEPTEMBER 27, 2006 VOLUME LXXI
814
Councilmember Rodgers made a motion, seconded by Councilmember Kaptain, to amend the
proposed ordinance to include an eight-month sunset clause during which time the Council can
evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed amendments being made to Chapter 2.08 of the Elgin
Municipal Code.
Councilmember Sandor stated that he doesn’t believe a sunset provision is necessary in that the
council voted over a year ago to review all of its procedures when a new Council is seated.
Councilmember Rodgers stated that she would still like to have the eight-month sunset clause
added in that it is an assurance that the council will be looking at this again in eight months. She
doesn’t want any of the residents to feel that they can’t come to the Council. By looking at this
again in eight months, they will feel that their concerns will continue to be heard, and they don’t
have to wait or be secondary to anyone else because they are the most important people in this
community.
Councilmember Kaptain stated that he has said many times that he loves to hear people talk. He
is willing to try this change to see if it will help move the process along. However, he is
concerned and doesn’t want to infringe on anyone’s rights. He would like for staff to track the
number of people who come to sign in and determine whether over a period of time there is a
change.
Councilwoman Rodgers stated that another reason she is requesting a sunset clause is that one of
the first things many people ask her is whether they have to stay for the entire meeting. Many of
them can’t stay because they have young children they need to get home to. If this change in the
agenda order is looked at again after eight months and the Council sees there is a decrease in the
number of residents who come to speak, it sends a message to the residents that the Council will
change this because it recognizes that the voice of residents is important.
Councilmember Figueroa stated that he in agreement to have this portion moved to the end of the
meeting. He also stated that having people be present for the entire meeting may be a benefit to
them by helping them become better informed regarding the business conducted by the Council.
Councilmember Walters stated that when the resident comment portion at Council meetings
began, it was at the end of the meeting. At some point, the Council decided to try putting it at
the beginning of the meeting. He also pointed out that the current policy of the U-46 School
Board has the public comment portion at the end of its meeting. Over time, Councilmembers
have noticed that most of the items addressed during this portion of the meeting have nothing to
do with the City Council. They are advertisements about another event or something that is
completely out of the Council’s control. He stated that people don’t even look at the City
Council but look straight into the TV camera to make their point and don’t even address the City
Council which shows an utter and complete disregard for the people who have business
scheduled on the Elgin City Council’s agenda. Councilmember Walters further stated that he
believes that those people also have rights. He also stated that he has never suggested that
people should not be able to address the Elgin City Council and have those items be put into the
minutes. He believes that by moving the comment portion to the end of the meeting is showing
common courtesy to the people who have matters on the City Council’s agenda

RESOLUTION 06-234 ADOPTED AUTHORIZING EXECUTION OF AN
ANNEXATION AGREEMENT WITH WAL-MART STORES, INC., SAM'S REAL
ESTATE BUSINESS TRUST AND SAM'S WEST, INC. (1000 SOUTH RANDALL
ROAD)
Councilmember Sandor stated that he was disappointed that the agreement to convey a landscape
stipend to the Willow Bay Homeowners Association hasn’t been put in writing.
Robert Gamrath, the attorney representing Wal-Mart, stated that they have verbally assured the
attorney for the homeowners association on a number of occasions that they agree to provide a
landscaping stipend to Willow Bay Homeowners Association to mitigate some of the impact. It
is Wal-Mart’s position that the impact is not from its development but from the widening of
Randall Road which will put the road closer to Willow Bay. He stated that as recently as this
past Monday he again assured the association’s attorney that the agreement will be put in writing
subject to the Council’s approval of the entitlements agreement. The agreement was a private
agreement with Willow Bay. Wal-Mart felt that providing the stipend was being a good
neighbor but it was also understood that it wasn’t something they felt was an impact directly
related to their development. At no time has Wal-Mart ever backed away from the agreement,
and their attorney has been repeatedly told that the agreement will be honored.
Councilmember Sandor again stated that he was extremely disappointed and that he would be
watching to make sure that the agreement is honored.

Councilmember Rodgers stated that she trusts that Wal-Mart, a billion dollar company, will do
the right thing. Wal-Mart and the City both have a lot to gain by their being in the Elgin
community. She further stated that Wal-Mart could have easily chosen to go to another
community, and she is glad they are staying here. She trusts that Wal-Mart will make the
decision to do the right thing concerning the Willow Bay Homeowners Association. The Wal-
Mart representative responded that the Council has his word on that.
