It is proposed the City would vacate and provide the parking along Washington and up to 10 spots of
Green Bay Road with a charge of $90.00 per quarter per spot at the beginning of the quarter. The
parking on Green Bay Road south of Washington would be sub-leased of our lease of the 10 spots from

concern over the parking issues as the developer is allowing for 1.3 cars per unit. Alderman Grice stated

requirements for building materials. The single units will be 700 square feet, at a cost of $1350.00 per

Park Fire Department participated in the fire drill at Oak Terrace School last week. There has been an
extra AED donated to the Nuestro Center. On September 9, 2016, the Fire Department, Highwood
Police Department and Ft. Sheridan participated in an active shooter drill. The Fire Department plans
to have an ambulance present at the Pumpkin Festival. The response times are 3-4 minutes west of the
tracks, and 4-6 minutes east of the tracks.
7.4. Discussion on the Property at Prairie Avenue and Burtis Avenue.
Debbie Beaver, a purchaser of the Fiore property of on the corner of Burtis and Prairie Avenues
presented their proposal of a 7 unit townhome project. The Council, as a whole was not in favor the 7
units, siting the density issues. The Council would possibly reconsider if it were a 5-6 unit proposal. Debbie
stated she would need to go back to the Fiore’s to renegotiate the purchase price. Walnut Creek was
the example of the type of housing for the corner. The starting costs of the units would be $450,000.00.
7.5. Consideration of a Motion Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a First Amendment
to the City of Highwood Snow Removal and Salt Application Agreement.
It is prosed to expand the contracting of the snowplowing to all streets and parking lots. The cost would
be $100,000.00 which would come out of MFT fund. The City would continue to plow the sidewalks.
7.6. Consideration of a Motion Agreeing to an Amended Fee Structure for Klein, Thorpe &
Jenkins Legal Fees.
The increase would be 2.5% increase.
7.7. A Discussion on the City Property Located Between Union Pacific Railroad Property and
the National Park Property.
Dr. Kordell, of the veterinarian clinic on Sheridan Road suggested some improvements to the National
Park Issue, including trees if his parking lot area could be expanded. Parcel #1 belongs to the City. (see
exhibit) It was decided Dr. Kordell would work with City Manager Coren as well as Scopelliti and Mariani
for the landscaping.
7.8. A Discussion on Proposals Submitted for the Fire Station Property.
There were 2 proposals submitted, one being the recreation department, the other the performer’s
school which is currently rents from the recreation department. It was decided by the Council to extend
the RFP, as the Council wants the property back on the tax roles. IT is estimated to bring in $20-25,000.00
per year of property tax income. Ivan Tosi thought the recreation center could rent out the space
bringing in $5,000-$8,000.00 per month. However, improvements would be required prior to renting the
space.
7.9. A Discussion on Implementing a Formal Sidewalk Replacement Program.
Council was in favor of the sidewalk program, and for next year too, estimating $20-30,000 range for
the next couple of years.

Dear ARC Committee:
This application contemplates the installation of a 72" wide x 18" high sign over the
front door that simply states, "Ginger's". This sign is intended to advertise our
business name to the community while keeping the overall design in accordance
with the existing Irish Pub fac;:ade. This sign fits exactly in the recess above the door
which is also 72"x18". The letters will be approximately 12" high and are in an
Irish-ish font, as depicted in the attached documents.
The sign will be made out of "MaxMetal" which is a plastic sheet, laminated in
aluminum, with a baked enamel finish. No additional lights will be installed. The
sign will be attached to the wood by 6 black screws to achieve a seamless
integration.
Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

intent and purpose of the code.

request, citing Code 10-3-6-7: ...the color of corporate logos may be
required to be changed or subdued to meet the intent and purpose of the
code. The Committee suggested, and applicant agreed, to a single color of
R772, Blue Tweed, for both the awning face and apron, with white apron
lettering.

lettering proposal.

October 4, 2016
ISSUE STATEMENT
An ordinance modifying the matrix under 3-2A-1 ‘Fees Established’ of the Highwood City Code
to increase certain recreation rental rates by $5 per hour.
BACKGROUND/HISTORY
Ivan Tosi, the Director of Parks & Recreation approached the City Manager about the current
hourly rental rates for the recreation center and the Western Avenue ballpark. Over the past few
years there has been extremely strong demand for these facilities and the rental rates currently
charged are advantageous to many partnering agencies that rent out space. He recommended
increasing the rates of two specific services: birthday parties or events and ballpark practice
rentals. He does not anticipate losing any partnering agencies due to this increase. The
additional revenue generated can help keep pace with the cost of maintaining these facilities and
for improving parks and recreational facilities in Highwood.
STAFF/COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval.
ALTERNATE CONSIDERATION
Not approving would be an alternate consideration.
