any site runoff storage area, drainageway, ditch, swale, storm sewer, or other stormwater facility;
costs of design, engineering and other consulting services, surveying and permits, public liability
insurance, and all administrative, legal and other costs or expenses incurred in connection

NOTICE OF HEARING
CITY OF ELGIN
MADISON HOMES SUBDIVISION
SPECIAL SERVICES AREA
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that on August 13, 2008, at 7:00 p.m. in the City Council
Chambers of Elgin City Hall, 150 Dexter Court, Elgin, Illinois, a hearing will be held by the City
Council of the City of Elgin to consider the establishment of a Special Service Area consisting of
territory legally described in Exhibit A which is attached to and incorporated by reference into
this notice.
The approximate location of the proposed Special Service Area is 2250 Highland Avenue
in the City of Elgin, Kane County, Illinois. An accurate map depicting the location of the pro-
posed Special Service Area is attached to and incorporated by reference into this notice as Ex-
hibit B.
All interested persons affected by the proposed establishment of the Special Service Area
will be provided with an opportunity to be heard on that issue and may object to the establish-
ment of the Special Service Area and the tax levy affecting that Special Service Area.
The purpose for establishing the Special Service Area is to provide services including the
operation, maintenance, repair, rehabilitation, replacement and reconstruction of any site runoff
storage area, drainage way, ditch, swale, storm sewer, or other stormwater facility; costs of de-
sign, engineering and other consulting services, surveying and permits, public liability insurance,
and all administrative, legal and other costs or expenses incurred in connection therewith and
with the administration of the Special Service Area, including the repayment of any loan or debt
incurred for the provision of such services. All the described services described are unique and in
addition to services generally provided by the City of Elgin.
At the hearing, all persons affected will be provided with an opportunity to be heard. At
the hearing, a tax levy for the Special Service Area will be considered. The proposed annual tax
levy for the Special Service Area is in an amount not to exceed an annual rate of 0.762 of the
equalized assessed value of the property within the proposed Special Service Area and the tax
will be levied for an indefinite period of time from and after the date of the ordinance establish-
ing the Special Service Area. These taxes shall be in addition to all other taxes permitted by law
and shall be levied pursuant to the provisions of the Property Tax Code (35 ILCS 200/1-1 et seq).
The tax levies are intended to produce approximately $13,200.00 annually for the cost of the ser-
vices described above. The City of Elgin, however, may annually levy up to the maximum rate
specified in the ordinance establishing the Special Service Area for the cost of the services de-
scribed above as said services become necessary and are provided by the City of Elgin. Notwith-
standing the foregoing, taxes shall not be levied hereunder and the proposed Special Service
Area shall remain abeyant and shall take effect only in the event the homeowners' or other prop-
erty owner association responsible for the property within the proposed Special Service Area
fails to maintain, repair, replace or pay for the improvements described above and/or any related
costs for those improvements, so as to require the City of Elgin to assume those responsibilities.
r
The hearing may be adjourned by the City Council of the City of Elgin to another date without
further notice other than a motion to be entered upon the minutes of its meeting fixing the time
and place of its adjournment.
If a petition objecting to the establishment of the proposed Special Service Area, the tax
levy, or the imposition of a tax for the provision of special services to the proposed Special Ser-
vice Area has been signed by at least fifty-one percent (51%) of the electors residing within the
proposed Special Service Area, and by at least fifty-one percent (51%) of the owners of record of
the land included within the boundaries of the proposed Special Service Area, and is filed with
the City of Elgin City Clerk within sixty (60) days following the final adjournment of the public
hearing regarding the establishment of the proposed Special Service Area, no such Special Ser-
vice Area may be established nor any tax levied or imposed.
Dated this 26th Day of July, 2008.

TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Olufemi Folarin, City Manager
Lydia Treganza, Associate Planner
SUBJECT: Ordinance Initiating Hearing Procedure for Creating "Backup" Special Service
Areas for Stormwater Management Facilities within the Castle Creek and
Creekside Subdivisions
PURPOSE
The purpose of this memorandum is to provide the Mayor and members of the City Council with
information on the ordinance initiating the hearing procedure for creating "backup" special
service areas for the stormwater management facilities within the Castle Creek and Creekside
Subdivisions.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council approve the proposed ordinance initiating the hearing
procedure for creating "backup" special service areas for the stormwater management facilities
in the referenced subdivisions with the recommended annual tax levy.
BACKGROUND
Stormwater Management Ordinance's Special Service Area Requirements
In December 2001, the City Council adopted by reference the Kane County Stormwater
Management Ordinance as the stormwater management ordinance of the City (Ordinance No.
G80-01). Adopting the Kane County Stormwater Management Ordinance enabled the City to
continue issuing stormwater development permits for construction within the City rather than
ceding that permitting authority to Kane County.
The stormwater ordinance states that unless the maintenance responsibility for the stormwater
drainage system and special management areas to be constructed, installed or preserved in
connection with a development has been or will be accepted as public improvements by the City,
a special service area must be established either as the primary means of providing for the long
term maintenance of the facilities or as a backup vehicle in the event the party designated as
having primary maintenance responsibility fails to adequately carry out its duties. The
stormwater management ordinance requires the developer to consent to the establishment of any
such special service area as a condition to the approval of any development application requiring
a stormwater management permit.
Ordinance Establishing Backup Special Service Area Hearing
October 16, 2008
Page 2
Creating "Backup"Special Service Areas for Stormwater Management
The "Special Service Area Tax Law" (SSA Tax Law) (35 ILCS 200 27-5 et seq.) generally
authorizes units of local government to levy or impose taxes at different rates upon persons or
property within its boundaries in order to pay off the indebtedness for a capital improvement or
to pay the operational cost of providing some special service. For purposes of the special service
area contemplated by the stormwater management ordinance, the City's estimated costs for
providing the services shall be paid by the levy of a direct annual ad valorem (according to
value) tax upon all taxable property within the special service area for an indefinite period of
time commencing during and in the years subsequent to the date of the enabling ordinance.
When creating a"backup" special service area, the ad valorem property taxes shall not be levied
or take effect unless the homeowners' or other property owner association responsible for the
property within the proposed special service area fails to maintain, repair, replace or pay for the
stormwater management improvements and/or any related costs for those improvements so as to
require the city to assume those responsibilities; hence the term "backup" special service area.
The first step in creating a backup special service area is for the City Council to pass an
ordinance (1) proposing the establishment of the designated special service area, and (2)
providing for a public hearing on the matter. The ordinance must legally describe the property
that will be located within the proposed special service areas and must also provide a map
depicting the location of the proposed areas along with the commonly known locational
description of the proposed areas. The ordinance must also specify the date for the public
hearing and provide the form of the public notice for the public hearing that will be mailed to the
interested property owners and also published in a local newspaper.
The attached ordinances are proposing the establishment of special service areas for the
stormwater management facilities in the referenced subdivisions. The ordinances provide that
the public hearings on the proposed special service areas will occur on December 3, 2008, at
7:00 p.m. The public hearings will be conducted in conjunction with the regularly scheduled
City Council meeting scheduled at that time. Notice of the public hearing must also be published
in either the Courier News or the Daily Herald at least once not less than fifteen (15) days prior
to the public hearing.
The SSA Tax Law requires the City to make a good faith estimate of the tax rate required to
produce a tax to be levied upon all the taxable property within the proposed special service areas
that is sufficient to cover the expected long-term maintenance costs of the facilities. These
figures have been incorporated into the ordinances establishing the hearings to consider the
creation of the proposed backup special service areas.
Public Hearing for "Backup"Special Service Area
The public hearing regarding the establishment of the proposed special service areas must allow
any interested person to file written objections with the City Clerk and to be heard orally at the
hearing (SSA Tax Law, Section 27-35). The public hearing must be conducted by the City
Council and as noted above, may be scheduled to take place as part of a regularly scheduled City
Council meeting. The hearing may be adjourned by the City Council to another date without
further notice other than a motion to be entered upon the minutes of its meeting fixing the time

and place of its adjournment. As stated above, the ordinances provide that the public hearings on
the proposed special service areas will occur on December 3, 2008, at 7:00 p.m.
Objection Petition to "Backup"Special Service Area
If a petition objecting to the establishment of a proposed special service area, the tax levy, or the
imposition of a tax for the provision of special services to a proposed special service area that
has been signed by at least fifty-one percent (51%) of the electors residing within the proposed
special service area, and signed by at least fifty-one percent (51%) of the owners of record of the
land included within the boundaries of the proposed special service area, is filed with the City
Clerk within sixty (60) days following the final adjournment of the public hearing, the proposed
special service area may not be established nor any tax levied or imposed (SSA Tax Law,
Section 27-55).
Ordinance Establishing "Backup"Special Service Area
The City may adopt ordinances creating the backup special service areas not less than sixty (60)
days following the final adjournment of the public hearing provided a valid objection petition has
not been filed. The City Clerk is then required to file a certified copy of the ordinances,
including their exhibits, in the office of the County Clerk and in the office of the County
Recorder following their passage and approval. The ordinances adopting the backup special
service areas may be approved by the City Council on February 11, 2009.
COMMUNITY GROUPS/INTERESTED PERSONS CONTACTED
None
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The fiscal services director has determined the proposed annual tax levy for the backup special
service areas is sufficient to provide for the estimated annual maintenance costs for the
stormwater management facilities within the developments.
The proposed annual tax levy for the Castle Creek Subdivision Special Service Area is in an
amount not to exceed an annual rate of 2.181 cents per $100 of the equalized assessed value of
the property within the proposed Special Service Area. The tax levy is intended to produce
approximately$89,620 annually for the cost of the maintenance services.
The proposed annual tax levy for the Creckside Subdivision Special Service Area is in an
amount not to exceed an annual rate of 1.552 cents per $100 of the equalized assessed value of
the property within the proposed Special Service Area. The tax levy is intended to produce
approximately$45,203 annually for the cost of the maintenance services.
LEGAL IMPACT
rOrdinances establishing the backup special service areas must be drafted in the event the City
Council decides to create the backup special service areas.
