Trustee Lamb moved to appoint Trustee Dement to the Plainfield Riverfront Master Plan Steering
Committee. Seconded by Trustee Manning. Vote by roll call. Racich, yes; Dement, yes; Fay, yes;
Lamb, yes; Manning, yes; Collins, yes; 6 yes, 0 no. Motion carried.
Mayor Waldorf said he had given the Trustees a brief proposal regarding establishing a Budget
Committee and asked for Board discussion. Trustee Manning asked what would be the value added
to the budgeting process as he assumed that the full Board would continue to receive a full
explanation of the budget with the opportunity to comment. Trustee Lamb said that the purpose was
to give the Board a chance to give input early. Mayor Waldorf said that the memo gave a list of
expectations to participate in the budget process.
Trustee Manning said that this might require additional staff time ? to the committee and then to the
Board. He also said that, as proposed, three trustees on the committee would require notification of
an open meeting (which also required extra time). Trustee Dement said that the Board was
Village of Plainfield
Meeting Minutes ? November 6, 2006

responsible for the money spent in the Village, but there were some questions that could be asked and
answered on a committee level in more detail. He said that this would help generate policies and
offer specific input. Trustee Collins believed the process was brought up when the budget came
before them in its entirety without any Trustee input, and the Trustees were asked to look at
something within a tight time frame. He said that this proposal would not require more staff time ? it
would just be Trustee representation during the entire budget process. He felt a Chairman and three
Trustees with reports would create more work for staff and was not necessary. Trustee Manning
confirmed that the intention was to have the Trustees sit in at the financial review of the proposals for
the departments ? not to require two presentations. Trustee Manning asked Staff if this proposed
committee would work, but Ms. Pleckham said that she was not sure how this was done last year.
Mr. Minick asked if the department budget draft should be completed for the presentation, or if the
presentation would take place before the draft was started. Trustee Collins just wanted to give input
before the budget was written up. Trustee Manning said that when the budget came to the Board, it
was balanced by the department heads. He felt that the committee should get involved after the first
draft. Trustee Dement thought the committee would cause this to be less burdensome on the staff,
and he gave some examples on where the input would come in. Trustee Lamb thought this should be
reviewed as a full Board earlier. A further discussion ensued on items the Board needed to have
prioritized.
Trustee Manning had no problem with getting a look at the revenue flow early in the process, and he
thought it was one of the first steps. Regarding the committee, he wanted to know what changes
were proposed by the Trustees. Mr. Minick said that the other option was to set aside some time
early in the budget process for a COW meeting on this topic only for input in the process. Trustees
Manning and Lamb supported this. Trustee Racich saw nothing wrong with one or two trustees
overviewing the budget and red flagging certain situations on an informal basis. He did not want a
series of special meetings on the budget and asked if the mayor supported this. Mayor Waldorf
thought the staff should handle this. Trustee Racich said that the Trustees were elected, so he did not
see flaw in giving input. He thought the scenario presented was too time-consuming, but he did not
see an imposition in altering it.
Trustee Racich moved to authorize a committee of two Trustees to review the 2007 ? 2008 Budget ?
the conditions of which could be met to give reports on a bi-weekly basis to the Board, and
recommended Trustee Collins and Trustee Dement to be the two members named to the committee.
Seconded by Trustee Dement. Vote by roll call. Racich, yes; Dement, yes; Fay, yes; Lamb, no;
Manning, no; Collins, yes; 4 yes, 2 no. Motion carried.
Trustee Dement stated that he served on a similar committee before and he never tried to transfer
funds to a pet project. Trustee Manning asked how this committee would operate, and Trustee
Racich recommended the individuals sit down with Mr. Minick to establish goals and a timeframe.
Trustee Lamb expressed concern that with his job and his recent appointment to the Riverfront
Master Plan Steering Committee that Trustee Dement might be overloaded.
Trustee Dement said that he worked but could be flexible. The Riverfront project and finance
committee are important and he is willing to put his time in, and he would operate with the consensus
from the Board for support. Trustee Collins said that the other committee he was appointed to is a 5-
year process, and the Budget Committee is only a 5-month process. Trustee Collins stated that he too
had time for the Budget Committee, and he would do the best he could for the Village. Trustee Lamb

stated that he was just concerned about Trustee Dement being overloaded, he was not trying to put
anyone down.
TRUSTEE COMMENTS
Trustee Manning complimented Staff on the redesign of the website. It was full of information and
presented nicely. He said that the demographics were important information, and he was also pleased
that PEP had a page on that.
Trustee Lamb said that he did a walk-around in the business community where several business
owners visited other businesses for presentations. He said that it was successful and informative.
Trustee Lamb asked about the Letter of Credit Reduction on the Consent Agenda and what would
happen if the letter of credit was not renewed. Mr. Testin stated that unless the letter of credit is
renewed, staff will request claim of that letter of credit from the bank.
Trustee Lamb asked if the Village had done analysis for cost per check as 140 checks were written to
ComEd in a billing period. Mr. Minick pointed out that the line items as printed in the accounting
report did not represent an individual check; the accounting system does combine multiple invoices
from one vendor into one check.
Trustee Lamb asked if the Village had a new GIS employee. Mr. Testin said that the Village had an
agreement with an individual who would probably start closer to next year.
Trustee Collins thanked Staff for the flowers given for his mother-in-law.
rd
Trustee Racich stated that the 3 Mission Trip to Slidell is scheduled to leave Plainfield on
December 9. There are 23 collection sites for donations including various elementary school sites.
Financial donations can be made to ?Hurricane Relief Fund? c/o First Midwest Bank, 410 W.
Lockport Street, Plainfield, IL 60544. Trustee Racich commented that he had received an offer from
St. Mary Immaculate to have the Confirmation Class repack the toys for the trip to Slidell.

#3 PLAINFIELD EAST HIGH SCHOOL (PC CASE #1266-082506.SPR)
Trustee Fay moved to approve the site plan for Plainfield East High School, located at the southeast
th
corner of Naperville-Plainfield Road and 119 Street, subject to the stipulations listed in the staff
report. Seconded by Trustee Racich.
Trustee Fay questioned the street access and sidewalks. Trustee Fay noted that as in the past he is
willing to waive a number requirements, but he does have some concern regarding safety and access.
Mr. Scott Anderle, Healy Bender Architects, stated that the School District is not seeking a waiver of
the stipulations of the additional walks, but they are questioning the 5? sidewalk along the east side of
Naperville Road. The County indicated that they did not see a need for it at this time. The School
District is looking to put that off until the road is improved. There is no interconnection with any of
the walks along Naperville Road.
Mr. Mike Schwarz, stated that there will be a need for the sidewalk either within the public right of
way or within easement and it is listed as stipulation #9 in the staff report. There are several hundred
houses under construction in the River Hills Subdivision that is immediately south of the subject
property and staff feels that it would be better to have as much sidewalk as possible. We do not have
a date for the County to make the road improvements.
Trustee Fay indicated that if the road was going to be widened that it did not seem like good fiscal
planning to put a sidewalk in presently and we could look at it again after the road is improved.
Trustee Collins stated that he agreed with Trustee Fay and that he does not like sidewalks that do not
go anywhere. Trustee Dement asked if the School District would be agreeable in putting in a
sidewalk as requested when the time is more appropriate. Mr. Anderle agreed to this.
Vote by roll call. Racich, yes; Dement, yes; Fay, yes; Lamb, yes; Manning, yes; Collins, yes; 6 yes, 0
no. Motion carried.
#4 LIBRARY IMPACT FEE INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENTS
Trustee Fay moved to authorize the Village President to execute an intergovernmental agreement
with the Plainfield Public Library District and an intergovernmental agreement with the Oswego
Public Library District to accept an increase in the library impact fees charged by each library district.
Seconded by Trustee Racich.
Trustee Fay asked if anyone could expand on what this meant to the tax bill. Ms. Milavec said that it
would not affect individual taxpayer; it is a fee charged to developers for Capital Improvements.
Trustee Racich said that if the Library District felt that it was pressing to have a financial increase in
contributions, he asked that it come on a yearly basis so it was not as much of a shock. Ms. Milavec
pointed out that it would be expensive to hire a consultant on a yearly basis for the study. Trustee
Lamb suggested this come forward every three years for an extensive study. Trustee Manning stated
that we would like to see a macro view of the total impact fees charged by the Village. Mr. Testin
said it was about $34,000 per house and . is comparable to surrounding communities.
Vote by roll call. Racich, yes; Dement, yes; Fay, yes; Lamb, yes; Manning, yes; Collins, yes; 6 yes, 0
no. Motion carried.

Trustee Racich said that a big development was coming forward, and he asked if the Library District
was working closely with the development to make sure services would be provided to that area. Ms.
Malovek said that Plainfield was planning to serve that area, and a preliminary agreement with the
th
Park District was made to create a branch site at 135 Street and County Line Road. This was still
being pursued.
#5 PLAINFIELD CONGREGATIONAL UNITED CHURCH OF CHRIST VARIANCE
Trustee Fay moved to adopt the findings of fact of the Zoning Board of Appeals as the findings of
fact of the Board of Trustees and to direct the Village Attorney to prepare an ordinance granting a
variance for a corner side-yard setback reduction to permit construction of a carport at the Plainfield
Congregational United Church of Christ, located at 24020 W. Fraser Road. Seconded by Trustee
Lamb. Vote by roll call. Racich, yes; Dement, yes; Fay, yes; Lamb, yes; Manning, yes; Collins, yes;
6 yes, 0 no. Motion carried.
#6 NORTHWEST CORNER OF ROUTE 59 AND OAK STREET (PC CASE #1260-
072806.RZ.SPR.SU.PP.FP)
Trustee Fay moved to accept the findings of fact as outlined in the staff report and deny the
Rezoning, Special Use for a Planned Unit Development, Preliminary/Final PUD and Subdivision
Plat, and Site Plan for a proposed 5,203 square-foot, multi-tenant commercial building with a drive
through, to be located at the northwest corner of Route 59 and Oak Street. Seconded by Trustee
Dement.
John Argoudelis addressed the Board and said that Staff supported putting this back to the Plan
Commission. The developer had spent time with Staff, the Park District, the Fire Department, and
the Village Traffic Engineer. At the Plan Commission meeting, the developer had requested the case
be continued to get input on various items. Procedurally, once the Plan Commission rejected this, the
developer was forced to go forward. He wanted input and asked that it be remanded to the Plan
Commission to resolve concerns. He said that the vacation of Oak Street was a concern. In
discussions, the developer found that the Park District was not opposed to the Oak Street vacation;
there were just some landscaping and green space issues. The Traffic Engineer was not objecting to
vacation but was concerned with the Route 59 Landscape Plan. The developer was looking at
suggestions and spoke with the Fire Department which was unaware of any concerns. The developer
sat down with the end user and put together several proposals for how to reconfigure this to the
Village?s satisfaction. He knew the current proposal was not acceptable, but he wanted to continue to
work out the issues. If the Board had any issues, he asked for input.
There was some discussion regarding the motion on the table, and Mr. Harvey said that the motion
could be withdrawn if the Board wanted to do so.
Vote by roll call. Racich, yes; Dement, yes; Fay, yes; Lamb, yes; Manning, no; Collins, yes; 5 yes, 1
no. Motion carried.
Trustee Lamb asked what the difference was between denying this or putting back to the Plan
Commission. Mr. Testin said that the developer would have to reapply, but time-wise there was no
difference other than re-advertising. The developer just wanted to make sure he was on the right

track. Trustee Lamb saw a very negative report from Staff, and Mr. Testin said that there were some
issues still being addressed.
Mr. Minick said that the developer could get comments on a formal basis using a Concept Plan. Mr.
Argoudelis reminded the Board that there was a COW meeting where a concept was reviewed; he did
not hear strong negative comments at that COW meeting. He said that the developer was striving to
make this consistent with Walgreens, but if that was not what was desired, he wanted to know.
#7 LOT 1 DAYFIELD COMMERCIAL SUBDIVISION (PC CASE #1106-
030104.SPR.SU/PP.FP)
Trustee Fay moved to approve a one-year extension to a previously approved Site Plan for a 19,565
square-foot, multi-tenant, commercial building to be located on Lot 1 in the Dayfield Commercial
rd
Subdivision located at the northwest corner of Route 30 and 143 Street, behind Family Video.
Seconded by Trustee Racich.
Trustee Fay said that this was a one-year extension and asked if the plan remained unchanged. Mr.
Schwarz said that it was unchanged, but there were several proposed minor modifications to the
building footprint and elevations. He said that those could be done with the Village Planner?s
approval and showed the footprint and elevation changes proposed.
Vote by roll call. Racich, yes; Dement, yes; Fay, yes; Lamb, yes; Manning, yes; Collins, yes; 6 yes, 0
no. Motion carried.

Chief Bennett said that he did not. The contractor had said that this was beyond his control, but he

would stay with the quote. Trustee Fay said that this was three or four significant work order
changes. He said that this was an unusually high amount for these changes and asked if there was
something the Village should have done along the way. Chief Bennett said that the range was not
part of the original pricing, but half of this was to add a product that was not part of the original plan.
Regarding fire proofing, he did not know it would need to be added to the structure. As far as the
additional sprinklers, the Fire Department had asked for this to be additional. The only thing was the
epoxy floor which was a decision based on product and durability.
Trustee Collins confirmed that this was originally going to be a concrete stained floor and asked why
this was changing. Chief Bennett said that the stain was dark in spots and did not look good. Based
on the fact that the floor was poured over different periods, it was part of the architect?s bid. Once he
saw the end product, he did not feel the dark floor would do justice to the work done. He said that
the initial specification was lighter, but the test looked bad. Trustee Racich asked what the final cost
of the facility was. Chief Bennett said that there was money left in the bond, but with the initial
change orders and this, the final building would be about $11.56 million. Trustee Racich
complimented him on the facility, and he agreed on adding the firing range.
Trustee Dement confirmed that there was an initial test poured on the undercut north parking lot.
Chief Bennett said that the majority of the funds were for soil conditions, but there was a sliver of
water/sand that required fill that was missed.
Trustee Dement thought the epoxy was an excellent idea but asked why this was not brought up
before. Chief Bennett said that initially it was within the funds, but when it was put together, it was a
lot.
Trustee Collins moved to approve Change Orders to the New Police Facility as requested. Seconded
by Trustee Dement. Vote by roll call. Racich, yes; Dement, yes; Fay, yes; Lamb, yes; Manning, yes;
Collins, yes; 6 yes, 0 no. Motion carried.
Chief Bennett brought to the Board?s attention that the release of the re-addressing letters is on
schedule. It is not popular. The residents of the Springhill Subdivision are requesting that the
Village Board compensate them for the costs to replace the stone addresses. In the interim, Chief
Bennett contacted a stone outfitter and masonry contractors to get some information on group pricing.
Chief Bennett said that the cost was between $200 and $300.
ATTORNEY?S REPORT
No report
Trustee Racich said that on the first page of the agenda under the Consent Agenda, there was a letter
regarding not recommending release of the letter of credit. He asked if the Board should have voted
to release this. Mr. Testin said that there was a little bit of reduction in Phase 3 and explained this.
Mayor Waldorf reminded everyone of the Plan Commission Meeting on November 7; World Town
Planning Day on November 8; Lockport Streetscape Open House on November 8; Historic
Preservation Commission Meeting on November 9; Village Offices Closed for Veterans Day on
November 10; and Committee of the Whole Workshop on November 13.
