THE BONDS
GENERAL
The Bonds will be issued in fully registered form as to both principal and interest in denominations of $5,000 each
or any integral multiple thereof, and will be dated, as originally issued, as of June 14, 2012. The Bonds will mature
on December 1 in the years and amounts set forth on the cover of this Preliminary Official Statement. Interest will
be payable on June 1 and December 1 of each year, commencing December 1, 2012, to the registered owners of the
Bonds appearing of record in the bond register as of the close of business on the 15th day (whether or not a business
day) of the immediately preceding month. Interest will be computed upon the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-
day months and will be rounded pursuant to rules of the MSRB. All Bonds of the same maturity will bear interest
from date of issue until paid at a single, uniform rate.
Unless otherwise specified by the purchaser the Bonds will be registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee for
The Depository Trust Company, New York, New York ("DTC"). (See "Book-Entry-Only System" herein.) As long
as the Bonds are held under the book-entry system, beneficial ownership interests in the Bonds may be acquired in
book-entry form only, and all payments of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds shall be made
through the facilities of DTC and its Participants. If the book-entry system is terminated, principal of, premium, if
any, and interest on the Bonds shall be payable as provided in the resolution awarding the sale of the Bonds.
The Village has selected Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, Chicago, Illinois, to act as bond registrar and
paying agent (the "Paying Agent"). The Village will pay the charges for Paying Agent services. The Village reserves
the right to remove the Paying Agent and to appoint a successor.
OPTIONAL REDEMPTION
The Bonds are being offered without option of prior redemption.
TERM BOND OPTION
Bids for the Bonds may contain a maturity schedule providing for any combination of serial bonds and term bonds,
subject to mandatory redemption, so long as the amount of principal maturing or subject to mandatory redemption
in each year conforms to the maturity schedule set on the cover.

AUTHORITY; PURPOSE
The Bonds of the Village are authorized pursuant to the Illinois Municipal Code, as amended, and the Local
Government Debt Reform Act of the State of Illinois, as amended, to provide funds to refund the 2012 through 2014
maturities of the outstanding amount of the Village’s General Obligation Bonds, Series 2004A, dated August 1, 2004
(the “2004A Bonds” or “Refunded Bonds”) and to pay the costs of issuing the Bonds. This refunding is being
undertaken to restructure the issue in order to level all the debt service payments over the remaining life of the TIF.
Following are the maturities of the 2004A Bonds being refunded by the Bonds:

The Village will establish an escrow account with direct obligations of the U.S. Government to pay all principal and
interest payments due on the 2004A Bonds from June 14, 2012 through December 1, 2014. Actuarial services
necessary to ensure adequacy of the escrow account to provide timely payment of the 2004A Bonds will be performed

SECURITY
The Bonds are general obligations of the Village, for which its full faith and credit has been irrevocably pledged, and
are payable from ad valorem taxes levied upon all the taxable property in the Village without limitation as to rate or
amount, except that the rights of the owner of the Bonds and the enforceability of the Bonds may be limited by
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, and other similar laws affecting creditors' rights and by equitable
principles, whether considered at law or in equity, including the exercise of judicial discretion.
RATING
General obligation debt of the Village, with the exception of any outstanding credit enhanced issues, is currently rated
“Aaa” by Moody's Investors Service.
The Village has requested a rating on this issue from Moody's Investors Service, and bidders will be notified as to the
assigned rating prior to the sale. Such a rating, if and when received, will reflect only the view of the rating agency
and any explanation of the significance of such rating may only be obtained from Moody's Investors Service. There
is no assurance that such rating, if and when received, will continue for any period of time or that it will not be revised
or withdrawn. Any revision or withdrawal of the rating may have an effect on the market price of the Bonds.
CONTINUING DISCLOSURE
The Village will enter into a Continuing Disclosure Undertaking (the "Undertaking") for the benefit of the beneficial
owners of the Bonds to send certain information annually and to provide notice of certain events to certain information
repositories pursuant to the requirements of the Section (b)(5) of Rule 15c2-12 (the "Rule") adopted by the Securities
and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The information to be provided on an annual
basis, the events which will be noticed on an occurrence basis and a summary of other terms of the Undertaking,
including termination, amendment and remedies, are set forth in the form of the Undertaking in Appendix D.
The Village is in compliance with each and every undertaking previously entered into by it pursuant to the Rule. A
failure by the Village to comply with the Undertaking will not constitute a default under the Bond Ordinance and
beneficial owners of the Bonds are limited to the remedies described in the Undertaking. A failure by the Village to
comply with the Undertaking must be reported in accordance with the Rule and must be considered by any broker,
dealer or municipal securities dealer before recommending the purchase or sale of the Bonds in the secondary market.
Consequently, such a failure may adversely affect the transferability and liquidity of the Bonds and their market price.
Bond Counsel expresses no opinion as to whether the Undertaking complies with the requirements of Section (b)(5)
of the Rule.
LEGAL OPINION
An opinion as to the validity of the Bonds and the exemption from federal taxation of the interest thereon will be
furnished by Chapman and Cutler LLP, Chicago, Illinois, bond counsel to the Village, and will accompany the Bonds.
The legal opinion will state that the Bonds, to the amount named, are valid and legally binding obligations of the
Village, and all taxable property in the Village is subject to the levy of taxes to pay the same without limitation as to
rate or amount, except that the rights of the owners of the Bonds and the enforceability of the Bonds may be limited
by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights and by
equitable principles, whether considered at law or in equity, including the exercise of judicial discretion.
4
TAX EXEMPTION
Federal tax law contains a number of requirements and restrictions which apply to the Bonds, including investment
restrictions, periodic payments of arbitrage profits to the United States, requirements regarding the proper use of bond
proceeds and the facilities financed therewith, and certain other matters. The Village has covenanted to comply with
all requirements that must be satisfied in order for the interest on the Bonds to be excludable from gross income for
federal income tax purposes. Failure to comply with certain of such covenants could cause interest on the Bonds to
become includible in gross income for federal income tax purposes retroactively to the date of issue of the Bonds.
Subject to the Village's compliance with the above-referenced covenants, under present law, in the opinion of Bond
Counsel, interest on the Bonds is excludable from the gross income of the owners thereof for federal income tax
purposes, and is not included as an item of tax preference in computing the federal alternative minimum tax for
individuals and corporations, but interest on the Bonds is taken into account, however, in computing an adjustment
used in determining the federal alternative minimum tax for certain corporations.
In rendering its opinion, Bond Counsel will rely upon certifications of the Village with respect to certain material facts
within the Village's knowledge and upon the mathematical computation of the yield on the Bonds and the yield on
certain investments by Barthe & Wahrman, Bloomington, Minnesota, Certified Public Accountant. Bond Counsel’s
opinion represents its legal judgment based upon its review of the law and the facts that it deems relevant to render
such opinion and is not a guarantee of a result.
The Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), includes provisions for an alternative minimum tax
("AMT") for corporations in addition to the corporate regular tax in certain cases. The AMT, if any, depends upon
the corporation's alternative minimum taxable income ("AMTI"), which is the corporation's taxable income with
certain adjustments. One of the adjustment items used in computing the AMTI of a corporation (with certain
exceptions) is an amount equal to 75% of the excess of such corporation's "adjusted current earnings" over an amount
equal to its AMTI (before such adjustment item and the alternative tax net operating loss deduction). "Adjusted
current earnings" would include certain tax-exempt interest, including interest on the Bonds.
Ownership of the Bonds may result in collateral federal income tax consequences to certain taxpayers, including,
without limitation, corporations subject to the branch profits tax, financial institutions, certain insurance companies,
certain S corporations, individual recipients of Social Security or Railroad Retirement benefits and taxpayers who may
be deemed to have incurred (or continued) indebtedness to purchase or carry tax-exempt obligations. Prospective
purchasers of the Bonds should consult their tax advisors as to applicability of any such collateral consequences.
The issue price (the "Issue Price") for each maturity of the Bonds is the price at which a substantial amount of such
maturity of the Bonds is first sold to the public. The Issue Price of a maturity of the Bonds may be different from the
price set forth, or the price corresponding to the yield set forth, on the Addendum of the Final Official Statement.
If the Issue Price of a maturity of the Bonds is less than the principal amount payable at maturity, the difference
between the Issue Price of each such maturity, if any, of the Bonds (the "OID Bonds") and the principal amount
payable at maturity is original issue discount.
For an investor who purchases an OID Bond in the initial public offering at the Issue Price for such maturity and who
holds such OID Bond to its stated maturity, subject to the condition that the Village complies with the covenants
discussed above, (a) the full amount of original issue discount with respect to such OID Bond constitutes interest
which is excludable from the gross income of the owner thereof for federal income tax purposes; (b) such owner will
not realize taxable capital gain or market discount upon payment of such OID Bond at its stated maturity; (c) such
original issue discount is not included as an item of tax preference in computing the alternative minimum tax for
individuals and corporations under the Code, but is taken into account in computing an adjustment used in
determining the alternative minimum tax for certain corporations under the Code, as described above; and (d) the
5
accretion of original issue discount in each year may result in an alternative minimum tax liability for corporations
or certain other collateral federal income tax consequences in each year even though a corresponding cash payment
may not be received until a later year. Based upon the stated position of the Illinois Department of Revenue under
Illinois income tax law, accreted original issue discount on such OID Bonds is subject to taxation as it accretes, even
though there may not be a corresponding cash payment until a later year. Owners of OID Bonds should consult their
own tax advisors with respect to the state and local tax consequences of original issue discount on such OID Bonds.
Owners of Bonds who dispose of Bonds prior to the stated maturity (whether by sale, redemption or otherwise),
purchase Bonds in the initial public offering, but at a price different from the Issue Price or purchase Bonds
subsequent to the initial public offering should consult their own tax advisors.
If a Bond is purchased at any time for a price that is less than the Bond’s stated redemption price at maturity or, in
the case of an OID Bond, its Issue Price plus accreted original issue discount (the "Revised Issue Price"), the purchaser
will be treated as having purchased a Bond with market discount subject to the market discount rules of the Code
(unless a statutory de minimis rule applies). Accrued market discount is treated as taxable ordinary income and is
recognized when a Bond is disposed of (to the extent such accrued discount does not exceed gain realized) or, at the
purchaser's election, as it accrues. Such treatment would apply to any purchaser who purchases an OID Bond for a
price that is less than its Revised Issue Price. The applicability of the market discount rules may adversely affect the
liquidity or secondary market price of such Bond. Purchasers should consult their own tax advisors regarding the
potential implications of market discount with respect to the Bonds.
An investor may purchase a Bond at a price in excess of its stated principal amount. Such excess is characterized for
federal income tax purposes as "bond premium" and must be amortized by an investor on a constant yield basis over
the remaining term of the Bond in a manner that takes into account potential call dates and call prices. An investor
cannot deduct amortized bond premium relating to a tax-exempt bond. The amortized bond premium is treated as a
reduction in the tax-exempt interest received. As bond premium is amortized, it reduces the investor’s basis in the
Bond. Investors who purchase a Bond at a premium should consult their own tax advisors regarding the amortization
of bond premium and its effect on the Bond’s basis for purposes of computing gain or loss in connection with the sale,
exchange, redemption or early retirement of the Bond.
There are or may be pending in the Congress of the United States legislative proposals, including some that carry
retroactive effective dates, that, if enacted, could alter or amend the federal tax matters referred to above or adversely
affect the market value of the Bonds. It cannot be predicted whether or in what form any such proposal might be
enacted or whether, if enacted, it would apply to bonds issued prior to enactment. Prospective purchasers of the
Bonds should consult their own tax advisors regarding any pending or proposed federal tax legislation. Bond Counsel
expresses no opinion regarding any pending or proposed federal tax legislation.
The Internal Revenue Service (the “Service”) has an ongoing program of auditing tax-exempt obligations to determine
whether, in the view of the Service, interest on such tax-exempt obligations is includible in the gross income of the
owners thereof for federal income tax purposes. It cannot be predicted whether or not the Service will commence an
audit of the Bonds. If an audit is commenced, under current procedures the Service may treat the Village as a taxpayer
and the Bondholders may have no right to participate in such procedure. The commencement of an audit could
adversely affect the market value and liquidity of the Bonds until the audit is concluded, regardless of the ultimate
outcome.
Payments of interest on, and proceeds of the sale, redemption or maturity of, tax-exempt obligations, including the
Bonds, are in certain cases required to be reported to the Service. Additionally, backup withholding may apply to any
such payments to any Bond owner who fails to provide an accurate Form W-9 Request for Taxpayer Identification
Number and Certification, or a substantially identical form, or to any Bond owner who is notified by the Service of
6
a failure to report any interest or dividends required to be shown on federal income tax returns. The reporting and
backup withholding requirements do not affect the excludability of such interest from gross income for federal tax
purposes.
Ownership of the Bonds may result in other state and local tax consequences to certain taxpayers. Bond Counsel
expresses no opinion regarding any such collateral consequences arising with respect to the Bonds. Prospective
purchasers of the Bonds should consult their tax advisors regarding the applicability of any such state and local taxes.
BONDS ARE NOT “QUALIFIED TAX-EXEMPT OBLIGATIONS”
The Village will not designate the Bonds as "qualified tax-exempt obligations” for purposes of Section 265(b)(3) of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, relating to the ability of financial institutions to deduct from income
for federal income tax purposes, interest expense that is allocable to carrying and acquiring tax-exempt obligations.
CERTAIN LEGAL MATTERS
Certain legal matters incident to the authorization, issuance and sale of the Bonds are subject to the approving legal
opinion of Chapman and Cutler LLP, Chicago, Illinois, as Bond Counsel (the “Bond Counsel”), who has been retained
by, and acts as, Bond Counsel to the Village. Bond Counsel has not been retained or consulted on disclosure matters
and has not undertaken to review or verify the accuracy, completeness or sufficiency of this Official Statement or

RISK FACTORS
Following is a description of possible risks to holders of these Bonds without weighting as to probability. This
description of risks is not intended to be all-inclusive, and there may be other risks not now perceived or listed here.
Taxes: The Bonds of this offering are general obligations of the Village, the ultimate payment of which rests in the
Village's ability to levy and collect sufficient taxes to pay debt service should other revenue be insufficient.
State Actions: Many elements of local government finance, including the issuance of debt and the levy of property
taxes, are controlled by state government. Past and future actions of the State may affect the overall financial
condition of the Village, the taxable value of property within the Village, and the ability of the Village to levy
property taxes.
Ratings; Interest Rates: In the future, the Village's credit rating may be reduced or withdrawn, or interest rates for
this type of obligation may rise generally, either possibility resulting in a reduction in the value of the Obligations
for resale prior to maturity.
Tax Exemption: If the federal government taxes all or a portion of the interest on municipal bonds or notes or if the
state government increases its tax on interest on bonds and notes, directly or indirectly, or if there is a change in
federal or state tax policy, then the value of these Bonds may fall for purposes of resale. Noncompliance by the Issuer
with the covenants in the Award Resolution relating to certain continuing requirements of the Code may result in
inclusion of interest to be paid on the Bonds in gross income of the recipient for United States income tax purposes,
retroactive to the date of issuance.
Continuing Disclosure: A failure by the Village to comply with the Undertaking for continuing disclosure (see
"Continuing Disclosure") will not constitute an event of default on the Bonds. Any such failure must be reported in
accordance with the Rule and must be considered by any broker, dealer, or municipal securities dealer before
recommending the purchase or sale of the Bonds in the secondary market. Such a failure may adversely affect the
transferability and liquidity of the Bonds and their market price.
State Economy; Local Government Aids: State cash flow problems could affect local governments, possibly
resulting in a decision to increase property or other taxes, or other expense management strategies.
Book-Entry-Only System: The timely credit of payments for principal and interest on the Bonds to the accounts of
the Beneficial Owners of the Bonds may be delayed due to the customary practices, standing instructions or for other
unknown reasons by DTC participants or indirect participants. Since the notice of redemption or other notices to
holders of these obligations will be delivered by the Village to DTC only, there may be a delay or failure by DTC,
DTC participants or indirect participants to notify the Beneficial Owners of the Bonds.
Economy: A combination of economic, climatic, political or civil disruptions or terrorist actions could affect the local
economy and result in reduced tax collections and/or increased demands upon local government.
Proposed Legislation: Prospective purchasers should consult with their own tax advisors regarding any pending or
proposed federal income tax legislation. On September 13, 2011, the Majority Leader of the U.S. Senate, at the request
of the President, introduced the American Jobs Act of 2011 (S. 1549) (the "Jobs Bill"). If enacted as proposed, the
Jobs Bill would result in federal income tax being imposed on a portion of the interest received by certain individual
owners of state or local bonds, including the Obligations, for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2013,
without regard to date of issuance of the Obligations. No prediction is made whether this provision will be enacted
as proposed or concerning other future legislation affecting the tax treatment of interest on the Obligations.

ILLINOIS PROPERTY VALUATIONS
REAL PROPERTY ASSESSMENT, TAX LEVY AND COLLECTION PROCEDURES
REAL PROPERTY ASSESSMENT
The County Assessor (the "Assessor") is responsible for the assessment of all taxable real property within Cook
County (the "County"), including such property located within the boundaries of the Issuer, except for certain railroad
property, pollution control facilities and low sulfur dioxide emission coal-fueled devices, which are assessed directly
by the Illinois Department of Revenue (the "Department of Revenue"). For triennial reassessment purposes, Cook
County is divided into three districts: west and south suburbs (the "South Tri"), north and northwest suburbs (the
"North Tri"), and the City of Chicago (the "City Tri"). The Village is located in the north Tri and was reassessed for
the 2010 tax levy year.
In response to the downturn of the real estate market, the Assessor reduced the 2009 assessed value on suburban
residential properties (specifically, those properties located in the South Tri and the North Tri) not originally
scheduled for reassessment in 2009. For tax year 2009, each suburban township received an adjustment percentage,
lowering the existing assessed values of all residential properties in such township within a range of 4% to 15%,
beginning with the second-installment tax bills payable in the fall of 2010.
Real property in the County is separated into classes for assessment purposes. After the Assessor establishes the fair
market value of a parcel of property, that value is multiplied by the appropriate classification percentage to arrive at
the assessed valuation (the "Assessed Valuation") for the parcel. Such classification percentages range from 10% for
certain residential, commercial and industrial property to 25% for other industrial and commercial property.
Property is classified for assessment into six basic categories, each of which is assessed (beginning with the 2009 tax
levy year) at various percentages of fair market value as follows: Class 1 - unimproved real estate (10%); Class 2 -
residential (10%); Class 3 - rental-residential (16% in tax year 2009, 13% in tax year 2010, and 10% in tax year 2011
and subsequent years); Class 4 - not-for-profit (25%); Class 5a - commercial (25%); and Class 5b - industrial (25%).
In addition, property may be temporarily classified into one of eight additional assessment classification categories.
Upon expiration of such classification, property so classified will revert to one of the basic six assessment
classifications described above.

The additional assessment classifications are as follows:
The Assessor has established procedures enabling taxpayers to contest their proposed Assessed Valuations. Once the
Assessor certifies its final Assessed Valuations, a taxpayer can seek review of its assessment by appealing to the Cook
County Board of Review, which consists of three commissioners elected by the voters of the County. The Board of
Review has the power to adjust the Assessed Valuations set by the Assessor.
Owners of both residential property having six or fewer units and owners of real estate other than residential property
with six or fewer units are able to appeal decisions of the Board of Review to the Illinois Property Tax Appeal Board
(the "PTAB"), a statewide administrative body. The PTAB has the power to determine the Assessed Valuation of real
property based on equity and the weight of the evidence. Taxpayers may appeal the decision of PTAB to either the
Circuit Court of Cook County or the Illinois Appellate Court under the Illinois Administrative Review Law.
10
As an alternative to seeking review of Assessed Valuations by PTAB, taxpayers who have first exhausted their
remedies before the Board of Review may file an objection in the Circuit Court of Cook County similar to the
previous judicial review procedure but with a different standard of proof than previously required. In addition, in
cases where the Assessor agrees that an assessment error has been made after tax bills have been issued, the Assessor
can correct any factual error, and thus reduce the amount of taxes due, by issuing a Certificate of Error. Certificates
of Error are not issued in cases where the only issue is the opinion of the valuation of the property.
EQUALIZATION
After the Assessor has established the Assessed Valuation for each parcel for a given year, and following any
revisions by the Board of Review or PTAB, the Illinois Department of Revenue is required by statute to review the
Assessed Valuations. The Illinois Department of Revenue establishes an equalization factor (the "Equalization
Factor"), commonly called the "multiplier," for each county to make all valuations uniform among the 102 counties
in the State. Under State law, the aggregate of the assessments within each county is equalized at 33-1/3% of the
estimated fair cash value of real property located within the county prior to any applicable exemptions. One multiplier
is applied to all property in the County, regardless of its assessment category, except for certain farmland property
and wind energy assessable property, which are not subject to equalization.
Once the Equalization Factor is established, the Assessed Valuation, as revised by the Board of Review or PTAB, is
multiplied by the Equalization Factor to determine the equalized assessed valuation (the "EAV") of that parcel. The
EAV for each parcel is the final property valuation used for determination of tax liability. The aggregate EAV for
all parcels in any taxing body's jurisdiction, plus the valuation of property assessed directly by the State, constitutes
the total real estate tax base for the taxing body and is the figure used to calculate tax rates (the "Assessment Base").
The following table sets forth the Equalization Factor for the County for the last 10 tax levy years.

EXEMPTIONS
The Illinois Property Tax Code, as amended (the "Property Tax Code"), provides that certain property is exempt from
taxation. Certain property is exempt from taxation on the basis of ownership and/or use, including, but not limited
to, use as public parks, not-for-profit schools and public schools, churches, and not-for-profit hospitals and public
hospitals. In addition, the Property Tax Code provides a variety of homestead exemptions, which are discussed in
this below.
An annual General Homestead Exemption provides that the EAV of certain property owned and used for residential
purposes may be reduced by the amount of any increase over the 1977 EAV, up to a maximum reduction of $6,000
for assessment year 2009 and thereafter.
11
The Alternative General Homestead Exemption limits EAV increases for homeowners (who also reside on the
property as their principal place of residence) to 7% a year, up to a certain maximum dollar amount each year as
defined by the statute. Any amount of increase that exceeds the maximum exemption as defined is added to the 7%
increase and is part of that property's taxable EAV. Homes that do not increase by at least 7% a year are entitled, in
the alternative, to the General Homestead Exemption as discussed above.
For properties in the City Tri, the Alternative General Homestead Exemption cannot exceed $20,000 for assessment
year 2009, $16,000 for assessment year 2010 and $12,000 for assessment year 2011. For properties in the North Tri,
the Alternative General Homestead Exemption cannot exceed $20,000 for assessment years 2009 and 2010, $16,000
for assessment year 2011 and $12,000 for assessment year 2012. For properties in the South Tri, the Alternative
General Homestead Exemption cannot exceed $26,000 for assessment year 2009, $20,000 for assessment year 2010
and 2011 and $12,000 for assessment year 2012.
The Long-Time Occupant Homestead Exemption limits the increase in EAV of a taxpayer's homestead property to
10% per year if such taxpayer has owned the property for at least 10 years as of January 1 of the assessment year (or
5 years if purchased with certain government assistance) and has a household income of $100,000 or less ("Qualified
Homestead Property"). If the taxpayer's annual income is $75,000 or less, the EAV of the Qualified Homestead
Property may increase by no more than 7% per year. There is no exemption limit for Qualified Homestead Properties.
The Homestead Improvement Exemption applies to residential properties that have been improved and to properties
that have been rebuilt in the two years following a catastrophic event, as defined in the Property Tax Code. The
exemption is limited to $75,000 per year, to the extent the assessed value is attributable solely to such improvements
or rebuilding.
Additional exemptions exist for senior citizens. The Senior Citizens Homestead Exemption annually reduces the EAV
on residences owned and occupied by senior citizens. The maximum reduction is $4,000. Furthermore, property that
is first occupied as a residence after January 1 of any assessment year by a person who is eligible for the Senior
Citizens Homestead Exemption may be granted a pro-rata exemption for such assessment year based on the number
of days during the assessment year that the property is so occupied.
A Senior Citizens Assessment Freeze Homestead Exemption freezes property tax assessments for homeowners who
are 65 and older, reside in their property as their principal place of residence and receive a household income not in
excess of $55,000. In general, this exemption limits the annual real property tax bill of such property by granting to
qualifying senior citizens an exemption as to a portion of the valuation of their property. The exempt amount is the
difference between (i) the current EAV of the residence and (ii) the base amount, which is the EAV of a senior
citizen's residence for the year prior to the year in which he or she first qualifies and applies for the exemption, plus
the EAV of improvements since such year.
Two exemptions are available to disabled veterans of the armed forces. Specifically, the Disabled Veterans'
Exemption, may be applied annually to exempt up to $70,000 of the Assessed Valuation of property owned and used
exclusively by veterans, their spouses or unmarried surviving spouses. Qualification for this exemption requires the
veteran's disability to be of such a nature that the federal government has authorized payment for purchase of specially
adapted housing under the U.S. Code as certified to annually by the Illinois Department of Veterans Affairs. In
addition, the Disabled Veterans' Standard Homestead Exemption, provides an annual homestead exemption of (i)
$5,000 to those veterans with a service-connected disability of 75% and (ii) $2,500 to those veterans with a
service-connected disability of less than 75%, but at least 50%.
Also, the Returning Veterans' Homestead Exemption is available for property owned and occupied as the principal
residence of a veteran in the assessment year the veteran returns from an armed conflict while on active duty in the
United States armed forces. This provision grants a one-time homestead exemption of $5,000.
12
Finally, the Disabled Persons' Homestead Exemption provides an annual homestead exemption in the amount of
$2,000 for property that is owned and occupied by certain disabled persons who meet State-mandated guidelines.
TAX LEVY
As part of the annual budgetary process of governmental units (the "Units") with power to levy taxes in the County,
proceedings are adopted by the designated body for each Unit each year in which it determines to levy real estate
taxes. The administration and collection of real estate taxes is statutorily assigned to the County Clerk and the County
Treasurer. After the Units file their annual tax levies, the County Clerk computes the annual tax rate for each Unit.
The County Clerk computes the Unit's maximum allowable levy by multiplying the maximum tax rate for that Unit
by the prior year's EAV for all property currently in the Village. The prior year's EAV includes the EAV of any new
property, the current year value of any annexed property, and any recovered tax increment value, minus any
disconnected property for the current year under the Property Tax Extension Limitation Law (the "Limitation Law").
The tax rate for a Unit is computed by dividing the lesser of the maximum allowable levy or the actual levy by the
current year's EAV.
EXTENSIONS
The County Clerk then computes the total tax rate applicable to each parcel of real property by aggregating the tax
rates of all of the Units having jurisdiction over the particular parcel. The County Clerk extends the tax by entering
the tax (determined by multiplying the total tax rate by the EAV of that parcel for the current assessment year) in the
books prepared for the County Collector (the "Warrant Books") along with the tax rates, the Assessed Valuation and
the EAV. The Warrant Books are the County Collector's authority for the collection of taxes and are used by the
County Collector as the basis for issuing tax bills to all property owners.
COLLECTIONS
Property taxes are collected by the County Collector, who is also the County Treasurer, who remits to each Unit its
share of the collections. Taxes levied in one year become payable during the following year in two installments, the
first due on March 1 and the second on the later of August 1 or 30 days after the mailing of the tax bills. A payment
due is deemed to be paid on time if the payment is postmarked on the due date. Beginning with the first installment
payable in 2010, the first installment is equal to 55% of the prior year's tax bill. However, if a Certificate of Error
is approved by a court or certified on or before November 30 of the preceding year and before the estimated tax bills
are prepared, then the first installment is instead based on the certain percentage of the corrected prior year's tax bill.
The second installment covers the balance of the current year's tax bill, and is based on the then current tax year levy,
assessed value and Equalization Factor, and reflects any changes from the prior year in those factors. The following
table sets forth the second installment penalty date for the last 10 tax levy years in the County; the first installment
penalty date has been the first business day in March for all such years.

It is possible that the changes to the assessment appeals process described above will cause delays similar to those
experienced in past years in preparation and mailing of the second installment in future years. In the future, the
County may provide for tax bills to be payable in four installments instead of two.
During the periods of peak collections, tax receipts are forwarded to each Unit on a weekly basis. Upon receipt of
taxes from the County Collector, the Issuer promptly credits the taxes received to the funds for which they were
levied.
Within 90 days of the second installment due date, the County Collector presents the Warrant Books to the Circuit
Court and applies for a judgment for all unpaid taxes. The court orders resulting from the application for judgment
provides for an Annual Tax Sale (the "Annual Tax Sale") of unpaid taxes shown on that year's Warrant Books. A
public sale is held, at which time successful tax buyers pay the unpaid taxes plus penalties. In each such public sale,
the collector can use any "automated means." Unpaid taxes accrue penalties at the rate of 1.5% per month from their
due date until the date of sale. Taxpayers can redeem their property by paying the amount paid at the sale, plus a
maximum of 12% for each six-month period after the sale. If no redemption is made within the applicable redemption
period (ranging from six months to two and a half years depending on the type and occupancy of the property) and
the tax buyer files a petition in the Circuit Court, notifying the necessary parties in accordance with the applicable
law, the tax buyer receives a deed to the property. In addition, there are miscellaneous statutory provisions for
foreclosure of tax liens.
If there is no sale of the tax lien on a parcel of property at the Annual Tax Sale, the taxes are forfeited and the property
becomes eligible to be purchased at any time thereafter at an amount equal to all delinquent taxes and interest accrued
to the date of purchase. Redemption periods and procedures are the same as applicable to the Annual Tax Sale.
The Scavenger Sale (the "Scavenger Sale"), like the Annual Tax Sale, is a sale of unpaid taxes. The Scavenger Sale
is held every two years on all property on which two or more years' taxes are delinquent. The sale price of the unpaid
taxes is the amount bid at such sale, which may be less than the amount of delinquent taxes. Redemption periods vary
from six months to two and a half years depending upon the type and occupancy of the property.
TRUTH IN TAXATION LAW
Legislation known as the Truth in Taxation Law (the "Law") limits the aggregate amount of certain taxes which can
be levied by, and extended for, a taxing district to 105% of the amount of taxes extended in the preceding year unless
specified notice, hearing and certification requirements are met by the taxing body. The express purpose of the Law
is to require published disclosure of, and hearing upon, an intention to adopt a levy in excess of the specified levels.

THE VILLAGE
VILLAGE INFORMATION
The Village of Glenview (the "Village") is located in northern Cook County 20 miles from downtown Chicago in the
second tier of communities west of Lake Michigan. Its immediate neighboring communities include Wilmette,
Northfield, Northbrook, Golf, Morton Grove and Skokie. In 1872, the Milwaukee Railroad (the "Milwaukee Road")
laid a single track through the area primarily to haul timber and supplies in connection with the reconstruction of
Chicago after the Great Fire of 1872. A parallel track was constructed in 1892 in anticipation of increased travel to
the 1893 Columbian Exposition in Chicago. Village residents adopted the name Glenview four years prior to the 1899
incorporation. Today, the Glenview railroad station offers METRA commuter service and serves the entire north and
northwest suburban area as the only regular AMTRAK stop between Chicago and Wisconsin. A second commuter
station opened in 2001 serving "The Glen" (former Glenview Naval Air Station) and other north suburban residents.
Population growth occurred slowly up to 1950 when the Census recorded 6,142 residents. Spurred by the opening
of the Edens Expressway (Chicagoland's first expressway to the northern suburbs) along the eastern boundary of the
Village, the population increased to 18,132 at the 1960 Census and to 37,093 at the 1990 Census. The 2000 Census
recorded a population of 41,847 up 12.8% from the 1990 Census within the Village's 13.5 square miles. A Special
Census was conducted in 2005 to account for growth within The Glen resulting in a population of 44,443. The
Village’s population at the 2010 Census was 44,692.
The strength of the Village of Glenview's local economy is apparent in the median family income figures from the
2006-2010 American Community Survey (ACS) which reported that the average income of Glenview residents
exceeded the county and state averages. According to ACS, Glenview's 2006-2010 median family income was
$127,815, compared to $65,039 for Cook County and $68,236 for the State of Illinois.
Economic Development
The Village is primarily residential in character, though it has a significant commercial and light industrial tax base,
including the Corporate Headquarters of Kraft USA, which Kraft has announced it will close by the end of 2013; an
office building for the Aon Corporation; a large retail store and distribution facility for Abt Electronics; the Kraft
General Foods Technology Center, which will remain in Glenview; the Corporate Headquarters of Scott Foresman;
the Corporate Headquarters of Illinois Tool Works (ITW) and Signode Corporation, a Division of ITW; the Corporate
Headquarters for Anixter Corporation; the Corporate Headquarters for Beltone; the Corporate Headquarters of Mead
Johnson; and the Corporate Headquarters for North American Paper. Of the Village's total 2009 equalized assessed
valuation, 74.2% was classified as residential and 25.8% was commercial/industrial. As of the date of this official
statement, the 2010 EAV breakdown is not available from Cook County.
Significant corporate and commercial areas in the Village include the North Shore Corporate Park, developed in 1996
to include 85 acres of light industrial buildings which houses five owner occupied and four multi-tenant
office/warehouse buildings. Adjacent to the Corporate Park is the Heatherfield Commercial development, which
includes a 70,000 square foot Jewel-Osco in a 115,000 square foot building with supporting retail, and the Willow
Creek Center with a 135,510 square foot Target store, a 92,800 square foot Kohl's Department Store and between
these stores an Office Max, Michael's Arts & Crafts and several outlots including a Pier One, eight national chain
restaurants and a bank.
The Village has encouraged and approved substantial development along the Sanders Road corridor adjacent to the
Illinois Tri State Tollway. In 2004, the Village annexed the 14 acre SBC (now AT&T) building site which houses a
regional switching facility. In 2007, the Village annexed a 15.75 acre site housing the Caremark/CVS Corporation
in two office buildings totaling 312,417 square feet. In 2008, the Village annexed the 40 acre site of the former
Culligan Corporation, and approved a redevelopment plan for the site. Construction of office buildings (408,644
22
square feet) on this site for anchor user, Astellas Pharma US Inc., is nearly complete and occupancy is anticipated
for June 2012. Other proposed uses (revised from the 2008 plan) include 90,000 square foot grocery, 90,000 square
foot hotel, and 80,000 square feet of health club/daycare/retail facilities, along with 290 multi-family rental residential
units; entitlement review is anticipated in 2012. In May 2011, the Village annexed a 10-acre site and approved
rezoning, preliminary subdivision and a variation for future use as a medical office development by owner
Northwestern Memorial Hospital.
The Village completed a corridor study of Milwaukee Avenue in 2006 and several significant commercial
developments have proceeded as a result of that planning project, including a 14,000 square foot building at 611
Milwaukee which was completed in 2009; a 28,000 square foot commercial center at 1615 Milwaukee which was also
completed in 2009; and a 25,000 square foot commercial center at 1701 Milwaukee, which is under construction with
anticipated completion in 2012.
In 2009, the Village conducted a similar planning project for the Waukegan Road corridor. While focusing primarily
on roadway improvements and traffic study concerns, several commercial properties, which are available for
redevelopment, including a vacant Avon distribution facility at Golf Road and Waukegan Road, a former Dominick's
grocery store site, and other potential redevelopment sites were identified. The plan will improve the streetscape and
traffic flow along the corridor and thereby increase the development value of these properties.
In 2011, plans were submitted by Regency Centers, a national shopping center developer, for the 20-acre site formerly
occupied by a 300,000 square foot Avon Corporation distribution facility near the intersection of Waukegan and Golf
Roads. Regency has proposed to develop this site to include a 75,000 square foot Mariano’s Fresh Market grocery
store, 14,840 square feet of inline retail/service, a 4,503 square foot Chase bank, and a 74,125 square foot Audi
dealership and car wash.
Between 2010 and 2012, several large construction projects were completed including a 162,600 square foot addition
to the Glenbrook Hospital; complete teardown and rebuilds for 2 McDonald’s restaurants; a new 85,000 square foot
Glenview Public Library; and a new 109,000 square foot office building for the General Board of Pension and Health
Benefits of United Methodist Church.
The Former Glenview Naval Air Station
In 1993, the Department of Defense ("D.o.D.") announced the closure of the 1,121-acre Glenview Naval Air Station
("GNAS") which was entirely within the Village corporate limits. To ensure that the property was expeditiously
redeveloped, D.o.D. designated the Village as the Local Redevelopment Authority. In anticipation of a possible base
closure, the Village Board adopted a Comprehensive Plan in 1990 which included a conceptual development scenario
for GNAS that served as the basis for initial discussions regarding the redevelopment of GNAS. All flight operations
ceased on March 1, 1995 and GNAS officially was closed on September 30, 1995.
A 93-acre site was retained by the Navy to house military personnel and their families who were stationed at the Great
Lakes Naval Training Center in North Chicago, Illinois. The 93-acre site originally contained 400 housing units (140
constructed since 1994). The Navy has studied and reduced its housing needs over the past several years and recently
determined that the number of units will decrease to 112. These units are now privatized (turned the maintenance and
leasing responsibility for the units over to a private-sector firm). As a result of the reduction in units, 41 of the 93
acres were declared surplus to the needs of the Navy and were sold to the Village in 2007 for mixed use development.
The Village has received conceptual development interest on this 41 acres for various residential uses including
senior, continuing care, and multi-family market rate housing, as well as educational, institutional, and office uses,
and intends to issue a Request for Proposals in July 2012. Proceeds of the General Obligation Bonds, Taxable Series
2006B provided funds for the land purchase. Another 25 acres have recently been purchased with Pulte Homes which
has received Village approval to construct 38 duplex, 109 rowhome multi-family units and two single-family homes.
23
GNAS Redevelopment Procedure
As the Local Redevelopment Authority, the Village's GNAS Land Use Committee conducted a series of public
hearings in November and December, 1997 to consider certain land use refinements and on February 3, 1998 the
Comprehensive Plan amendment incorporating the final Master Plan for GNAS was adopted.
The Village acted as the Master Developer of the entire site (hereinafter "The Glen") and was assisted by a real estate
development/management firm (Mesirow Stein Real Estate, Inc., a division of Mesirow Financial), who served as
development advisor. Additionally, the Village had the full cooperation of the elementary school districts, the high
school district, the Glenview Park District and the Glenview Public Library (collectively the "core" governmental
jurisdictions). A key step in the implementation phase was to establish a tax increment financing ("TIF") district for
The Glen. Unlike the then existing general tax increment financing statutes in Illinois, the Economic Development
Project Area Tax Increment Allocation Act of 1995 (effective January 1, 1996) automatically qualified closed military
installations of 500 acres or more for establishing a TIF and allowed specific agreements for reimbursement of
governmental costs from incremental revenues of the TIF. In Glenview's case, the incremental revenues include
incremental property taxes and 80% of the proceeds of all land sales (20% has been retained by the Village as a
developer fee). In April 1998, intergovernmental agreements were executed with the core jurisdictions to reimburse
them for their operating costs attributable to the redevelopment. The 2011 core jurisdiction payments totaled
$14,869,059 which represents approximately 51% of the total TIF property tax revenue received in 2011 in the
amount of $29,281,652. Additionally, the Village has agreed to and is paying $225,000 per year to the Metropolitan
Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago (not a core jurisdiction) during the life of the TIF.
The Redevelopment Plan - Infrastructure Improvements
In January, 1998, the Village awarded construction contracts in the amount of $22.8 million for the purpose of
constructing the on-site Phase I infrastructure improvements which included the removal of some 300 acres of
concrete and/or asphalt runways/aprons, the construction of the east collector road (Chestnut Avenue) and half of the
north south collector road (Patriot Boulevard) with attendant underground utilities and the excavation of the 45 acre
lake site which, in addition to providing recreational amenities for the entire Village, also serves as a centralized storm
water detention area for the development and offers long needed, overbank flooding protection for two downstream
residential areas in the Village. On-site Phase II through V improvements included the demolition of some 1,000,000
square feet of buildings and completion of roads and utilities to serve the entire site. The Village constructed off-site
infrastructure improvements which will also serve The Glen. On April 21, 1998, the Village awarded a $7.3 million
contract for the construction of a 6 million gallon off-site water reservoir which was completed in 2001. The total
on-site and off-site improvement cost is projected at approximately $185.5 million and approximately $38 million
is attributable to off-site improvements directly relating to the development.
The Redevelopment Plan - Public Development
The 1,121-acre site includes 472 acres of public lands including: the previously discussed 93 acres of Navy Housing;
Gallery Park, a 141.8-acre great park which includes the 45-acre Lake Glenview and a 56.1-acre public use campus
which includes the $25 million Attea Middle School (opened in August, 2003) and the Glenview Park District's $25
million community center (opened in January 2001); a $3.4 million Metra Commuter Station with 1,500 parking
spaces; a 39.3-acre nine hole golf course for the Glenview Park District; 58.6 acres for road right of way and drainage;
a 20-acre fire and police training academy; a 32-acre prairie preserve; a 12-acre Village services campus; 2 acres of
homeless housing; a fire station; a police station; a U.S. Post Office and approximately 50 acres of miscellaneous
public related development.
24
The Redevelopment Plan - Private Development
On April 15, 1998, the Village issued its Request for Proposals for development of 649 acres of non-public use lands
which were divided into 23 separate parcels designated as single family residential (205.8 acres), multiple family
residential (50.6 acres), retail (46.8 acres), mixed use retail (33.1 acres), office/warehouse/light industrial (85.7 acres),
senior housing (38.1 acres), an 18-hole championship golf course (180.0 acres) and sports/leisure/entertainment (8.9
acres). Total contractual land sales to date are approximately $226.1 million. The Village's projections, assuming
moderate growth of the TIF, call for build-out within the next three years and complete payment and/or provision for
payment of all redevelopment costs (including debt service) in approximately ten years.
A key project within The Glen is a 45-acre parcel called The Glen Town Center. It was developed by
Oliver-McMillan, of San Diego, and is a $135 million mixed use retail center consisting of 470,000 square feet of
upscale retail including a 160,000 square foot Von Maur Department store, an 80,000 square foot Dick's Sporting
Goods, a 10 screen Regal cinema, 154 townhomes, 181 luxury apartments and several restaurants. The focal point
of The Glen Town Center is a adaptive reuse of historic "Hangar One", which includes the retention of the control
tower and portions of the north and south facades of the hangar. Adaptive uses include a Von Maur store on one end,
Dick’s on another end and multiple retail in the middle. Hangar One fronts the new Main Street and backs up to The
Glen Club, an18-hole "Fazio" golf course owned by Kemper Sports. The Village funded certain infrastructure
improvements for The Glen Town Center including two parking decks (approximately 1,600 spaces) and public
streets. The project opened in the third quarter of calendar year 2003.
There are three other retail areas including a 388,000 sf of power center anchored by Costco, Home Depot, and Harley
Davidson, a 114,300 square foot neighborhood center anchored by a Dominick’s grocery store, and a 32,900 square
fee convenience retail center anchored by Egg Harbor and D’Agostino’s restaurants.
The sale of 85.7 acres of office and light industrial land to ProLogis/Catellus, now known as the Prairie Glen
Corporate Campus, has resulted in the development of several large office buildings, including two multi-tenant
buildings of 123,000 and 134,000 square feet respectively, the latter housing the 67,000 square foot corporate
headquarters of Mead Johnson. Other key buildings within the Prairie Glen campus include the headquarters buildings
of Anixter International Corporation (170,000 square feet) and Beltone (48,900 square feet), as well as a 120 unit
Staybridge Suites extended stay hotel, two large daycare facilities and many smaller office buildings. In April 2012,
Anixter indicated its intention to expand with construction of a new 60,000 square foot office building to house 150
additional employees.
There are nearly 2,000 residential units, including 658 single-family homes, 638 multi-family units, and three senior
housing developments containing 676 units.
The Redevelopment Financing
In 1995, the Village sold $60,000,000 General Obligation Bond Anticipation Bonds. Maturities of the Bond
Anticipation Bonds were scheduled for December 1, 1996-1999, based on the expectation that title to the land would
be transferred to the Village from the U.S. Government within one year or by early in calendar year 1996. Land sales
by the Village and tax revenues were expected to produce sufficient cash flow to pay the Bond Anticipation Bonds
as they matured. Bond proceeds were used to capitalize interest on each maturity and to provide funds for the
proposed infrastructure projects and/or the purchase of land from the U.S. Government. The December 1, 1996 Bond
Anticipation Bond maturity was paid from the proceeds of the $8,435,000 General Obligation Bonds, Series 1996.
The December 1, 1997 Bond Anticipation Bond maturity was paid from cash on hand. The December 1, 1998 Bond
Anticipation Bond maturity was paid from cash on hand and bond proceeds [2009D refunding]. The December 1,
1999 Bond Anticipation Bond issue's final maturity was paid from land sale proceeds. These bonds are fully paid off.
25
In addition to the net proceeds of the Series 1995 Bond Anticipation Bonds, the Village has received approximately
$20 million in Federal/State/County grants.
Proceeds of the $34,400,000 General Obligation Bonds, Series 1998 provided supplemental funds to complete the
construction of Phase I infrastructure and to advance certain Phase II construction costs. The demolition of
approximately one million square feet of buildings was funded from land sale proceeds. Bond proceeds included an
amount equal to a one year's debt service reserve plus capitalized interest for approximately 36 months. The $41.8
million Series 2001 Bonds [2011 refunding] were issued for infrastructure projects at The Glen. The $25 million
Series 2004A Bonds were issued for additional infrastructure projects at The Glen. The $10 million Series 2006A and
$27,940,000 Series 2006B [2009E refunding] were issued for additional infrastructure improvements at The Glen and
for the 41-acre land acquisition from the Navy, respectively.
After the sale of the 2012A Bonds, principal retirements and refundings to date, the Village will have approximately
$80.3 million of Glen related debt outstanding which is scheduled to be fully retired in 2021.
The Tax Increment Financing District
On May 5, 1998 the Village adopted: (1) an ordinance approving the Glenview Naval Air Station Economic
Development Plan; (2) an ordinance establishing the Glenview Naval Air Station Economic Development Project
Area; and (3) an ordinance authorizing tax increment financing for the Glenview Naval Air Station Economic
Development Project Area of the Village.
The TIF totals 1,360 acres and includes the 1,121 acres that previously encompassed GNAS plus 239 acres of largely
underdeveloped/undeveloped industrial acreage adjacent to The Glen on the east side. The 1,360 acres had a certified
initial equalized assessed valuation of $26,882,825. The TIF 2010 equalized assessed valuation was $484,429,894.
The incremental property tax revenues are the product of the current tax rate times the incremental valuation, and are
deposited into the Special Tax Allocation Fund (the "STAF"). The Village has determined that it will make available
80% of the land sale proceeds from The Glen (the Village has received title to all 1,121 acres except approximately
52-acres in the Navy Housing area and then resold approximately 650 acres) for purposes of the STAF. If the TIF
District remained in place for the entire 23 year period permitted by the authorizing statute and the build-out occurs
within the projected 15 years, approximately $600 million would be generated in incremental tax revenues.
Municipal Government and Services
The Village is a home rule unit under the 1970 Illinois Constitution. The Village has operated under the
Council-Manager form of government since 1931. The governing and legislative body consists of a President and a
Board of six Trustees all elected on an at-large basis. The appointed Village Manager is responsible for the day-to-day
operations of the Village.
The Village has a modern complement of public buildings. The Police Administration Building constructed in
1972-1973 was replaced in June 2006 by a building constructed from the proceeds of the Series 2004B. The Fire
Headquarters was constructed in 1974, the two satellite stations were constructed 1972 and two additional stations
were completed in 2004. Fire Station No. 7 was completed in mid-year 2009 ($2.9 million total cost paid from funds
on hand). The Village Hall was constructed in 1980-1982. The Public Library was constructed in 1955, doubled in
size in 1967-1968 and again doubled in size in 1984-1986. The Village has entered into an intergovernmental
agreement with the Library in which the Village agreed to issue general obligation debt to provide the Library with
up to $26.3 million to fund a building program at its current location in downtown Glenview. This 85,000 s.f. project
was funded with proceeds of the Series 2009A Bonds and was completed in 2011. The Public Works complex and
the Police Headquarters building are adjacent to The Glen.
26
In 1993, the Village annexed a site on its extreme southwestern edge upon which the Solid Waste Agency of Northern
Cook County (a consortium of 23 member municipalities including the Village) constructed a $17.5 million transfer
station for residential refuse disposal purposes. The transfer station serves the Village and 12 of the member
municipalities. The solid waste transfer station is separated from Village residential areas by Cook County Forest
Preserve lands and the Illinois Tollroad. As host community, the Village receives certain financial benefits.
On September 1, 1992 the Village and the Glenbrook Fire Protection District completed an agreement to merge the
District into the Village. As a result, the Village's fire department provides fire related protective services to residents
both within the corporate boundaries and adjacent unincorporated areas including a combined service area of 22
square miles. The Village is compensated for serving the unincorporated areas by revenues generated from a real
estate tax imposed specifically on that unincorporated area.
The Fire department is also responsible for the Village's paramedic program which uses mobile intensive care units.
On July 1, 2008, the Village started collecting Ambulance Fees. The excellence of the fire department and the
Village's water system is evidenced by the Village's very favorable Class 3 “ISO” fire insurance rating. The Village's
"enhanced" 911 emergency dispatch system became operational on March 1, 1992. During 2006 and 2007, the Village
undertook a complex consolidation of its separate Police and Fire dispatching operations to improve service and
generate efficiencies. Additionally during this time period, the Village Board invested in and deployed technology
upgrades to the Village's Computer Aided Dispatching (CAD) system, Police and Fire records management databases,
and Police and Fire mobile computing with the objective of providing the departments with modern communications,
improved data management capabilities, and measurement tools for performance accountability.
After two-and-a-half years of significant work effort and investment, Glenview Public Safety Dispatch (GPSD) has
become one of the leading independent dispatching centers in the Chicago metropolitan area. The center has become
a model for what cooperation between Police and Fire Departments can accomplish by working together. This
consolidation has made both departments stronger in service delivery and has been a significant step forward towards
management of finite economic resources. GPSD is the first point of connection to Glenview citizens when help is
needed. GPSD is now prepared better than ever to provide high level support to Police and Fire operations on a 24
hour, seven-day-a-week basis.
In February 2009 the Village entered into a 7-year agreement with the Village of Grayslake ("Grayslake") to provide
police dispatch services beginning in October 2009. By expanding existing technology currently used by both
municipalities and making one-time capital investments, this cross-county intergovernmental initiative will provide
an improved service level to Grayslake residents and the Grayslake Police Department, while maximizing the capital
investments already made by the Village. In July 2010, the agreement with Grayslake was enhanced by adding
services to the Village of Hainesville, a residential community south of Grayslake.
This intergovernmental solution is highly cost-effective. Technology innovations, such as radio equipment
improvements and Next Generation 911 (which in the future will allow citizens to text message and e-mail 911
centers), reflect the rapidly-rising costs of delivering high-quality, state-of-the-art public safety dispatch
services—making it increasingly difficult for single-agency public safety answering points (PSAPs) to shoulder the
cost burden. By regionalizing 911 PSAPs, the Village and Grayslake will share the costs of providing 911 dispatch
services, rather than burdening each agency's taxpayers. In an effort to improve on these cost savings, the Village will
continue to seek additional agencies that would benefit from consolidation.
The Northeastern Illinois Public Safety Training Academy was created in 1997 as a joint venture of municipalities
and public agencies. It operates a multiregional public safety training facility located on a 20 acre site at The Glen
which it has leased from the Village. The Agency has 25 member communities primarily from Chicagoland's north
and northwest suburbs.
27
Water System
The Village has purchased Lake Michigan water from neighboring Wilmette since 1938 and the present contract for
water, which was amended in 1999, extends through 2020. The amendment to the Wilmette contract provides that
Wilmette will supply the water needs of The Glen and in consideration thereof the Village funded a $6.26 million
improvement project at the Wilmette water plant. In addition to the 44,000 Village residents served by the system,
the Village also sells water to approximately 83,000 persons outside the Village (including a population of 20,000
served by Illinois American Water Company previously known as Citizens Utilities of Illinois-see below). In the late
1970's, the Village purchased two private water companies serving parts of the Village that had been annexed and
under development since the early 1970's and a significant unincorporated area, the latter of which, for all practical
purposes, was fully developed. The Village's agreement with Wilmette was amended to enable the Village to
substitute Lake Michigan water for the poor quality well water of the new service area. The funding of the acquisition
and upgrading of the two private water companies and the construction of the transmission main to bring lake water
from Wilmette came from General Obligation Bonds, the debt service of which was paid with revenues from the
benefited areas. Upon the acquisition of the private water companies, the Village adopted a water policy that required
a new customer to annex if contiguous to the Village and if not contiguous to sign an agreement to annex when
contiguous. This policy has required the development of all properties that inevitably would be in the Village to be
built to the Village's life-safety codes. Subdivision-type developments in this area are required to construct their
infrastructure comparable to Village design standards.
Other potential customers along Sanders Road also in unincorporated Northfield Township (now using well water)
include the Allstate Insurance Company. It includes all of Allstate's Corporate offices, the Headquarters for its Life
Insurance and Property and Casualty subsidiaries and data processing for all of Allstate. The campus consists of
1,878,000 square feet of office space along both sides of Sanders Road. In late 2000, Allstate expanded into an
adjacent 361,071 square foot office building on a 65-acre site previously owned and operated by Accenture. The
Allstate complex is contiguous to the Village. These unincorporated properties along with the former corporate
headquarters of Household International are also included in the area which now receives fire protection services from
the Village.
In the early 1980's Citizens Utilities Company of Illinois (now known as Illinois American Water Company) obtained
an allocation of Lake Michigan water from the Illinois Department of Natural Resources and requested that the Village
sell it Lake Michigan water for distribution to its service area west of Glenview. That area includes approximately
4,953 customers (population of approximately 20,000) in a 4 square mile service area including parts of Mount
Prospect, Prospect Heights, and certain unincorporated areas. The Village and Illinois American Water Company
entered into an agreement (the Water Supply Agreement) dated March 1, 1984 (subsequently amended) for Illinois
American Water Company to purchase its total supply of Lake Michigan water from the Village through September
30, 2020. The Agreement provided for the Village to design and construct the water transmission line and
appurtenances and to fund the cost thereof with a 20 year bond issue.
In 1997, the Village purchased the assets of a private water company (proceeds came from $6,175,000 General
Obligation Bonds, Series 1997 [2003A refunding] and $2,850,000 1997 Note) which serves a population of
approximately 40,000 in a primarily unincorporated area of Maine Township adjacent to the Village. The Village has
abated and intends to continue to abate taxes levied for the bonds and note issued for the acquisition with water and
sewer revenues from the acquired service area.
28
Home Rule and Village Finances
Pursuant to its population being in excess of 25,000, the Village became a home rule unit when the 1970 Illinois
Constitution was adopted. As a home rule unit, the Village has no tax rate or debt limits, nor is it required to conduct
a referendum to increase property taxes or to authorize the issuance of debt.
In 1979, the Village created its Capital Equipment Replacement Fund ("CERF") to serve as a funded depreciation
account for all capital equipment having a useful life of more than one year and having a value of $5,000 or more at
the time of purchase. Current replacement cost of each item is used in determining the charge to each department and
a cash interfund transfer is made monthly. The creation of CERF has served to eliminate surges in expenditures
funded from current revenues to cover major equipment purchases. As of December 31, 2010, CERF had a cash and
investment balance of $4,558,125. The Village created a similar Facilities Replacement Fund in fiscal year 2006 (total
cash and investments of $7,077,473 at December 31, 2010).
On February 21, 1983 (revised March 1985, January 1990, March 1996, January 2000, February 2005 and May 2009),
the Village adopted a Cash Control and Investment Policy that, among other things, provides that all cash and
investments must have security in the form of either insurance or collateral (U.S. Governments, Federal
Instrumentalities, Federal Agencies, obligations of the State of Illinois or the Village) with pledged collateral either
held by the Village or in safekeeping and evidenced by safekeeping documentation.
The Village has never resorted to tax anticipation financing and to ensure against same and at the same time protect
against unforeseen expenditures, the Village maintains a Fund Balance in the General Fund between 30% and 40%
of Total Expenditures including Transfers Out. The audited Fund Balance in the General Fund was $22,077,484 at
December 31, 2010. Total Expenditures including Transfers Out for Fiscal Year 2010 were $52,244,921. The Fund
Balance was therefore 42% of Total Expenditures including Transfers Out.
Excellence of the Village's financial reporting has been recognized for twenty-nine consecutive years (1982 to 2010)
by having received the Government Finance Officers' Association's (GFOA) Certificate of Achievement. The
significance of the GFOA's award is emphasized by their statement . . . "The Certificate of Achievement is the highest
form of recognition in the area of governmental accounting and financial reporting and its attainment represents a
significant accomplishment by a governmental unit and its management." The Village also received the Distinguished
Budget Presentation Award for its fiscal year 2008 - 2011 budget documents.
Pension Fund Obligations
The Village is required by State law to annually provide funds sufficient to accumulate the actuarial requirements of
its pension fund obligations. The amounts necessary to fund the Police and Fire obligations have been determined for
the Village by a qualified actuary, as described in the Illinois Pension Code. As of December 31, 2009, the
Firefighters' Pension Fund actuarial value of assets was $54,396,082 which was 74.19% of the actuarial accrued
liability ("AAL"). The Police Pension Fund actuarial value of assets was $49,768,625 and was 85.18% of the "AAL".
Illinois legislation signed into law in January, 1993 changed the funding period for the prior service costs for both
the Police and Fire Pension Systems to a 40 year period ending in 2033. Other full-time municipal employees are
covered by the Illinois Municipal Retirement Fund (IMRF). As of December 31, 2010, the IMRF actuarial
requirements were 61.37% funded (liabilities exceeded assets by $15,744,059). The IMRF annually determines the
contribution rate necessary to provide full funding of the unfunded prior service costs, including interest, over a 40
year period. Pension tax rates are set out in the table of tax rates herein.
29
Schools and Other Governmental Services
Within the Village limits are seven elementary public schools, two middle schools, and a senior high school
(Glenbrook South). The majority (70.3% by valuation) of the Village is served by Glenview Elementary (K-8) School
District No. 34. The District operates three primary grade schools (K-2), three intermediate schools (3-5) and two
middle schools (6-8). In 2003, the District completed construction of a $25.0 million new middle school on a 17.3
acre site at The Glen and located in the 142 acre great park.
Northfield Township High School District Number 225 serves 91.1% of the Village's valuation. The District's two
high schools are in Glenview and in neighboring Northbrook. Three parochial elementary schools are in the Village
and the campus of Loyola Academy, a parochial coed high school, is within one-half mile of the Village with its
athletic practice fields at a 60 acre site in the Village.
Public recreational needs in the Village are provided by the Glenview Park District (separate Municipal Corporation
established in 1927). The District's impressive array of facilities and programs has earned it two National Gold Medal
Awards for Excellence in the Field of Parks and Recreation Management in the national competition approved by the
National Recreation and Park Association and the Sports Foundation, Inc. These Awards cite the District's "continued
pursuit of excellence" and the "professionalism which distinguishes its management". The District maintains close
to 800 acres including more than 606 acres owned by the District and 165 acres of leased school grounds. The
District's special facilities include: a 110-acre, 18-hole golf course with a restaurant offering daily food service and
a banquet facility; a 39 acre, 9-hole golf course; an ice center with a full size 85 foot by 200 foot rink (plus an
instructional rink) with a concession area and spectator seating for 800 persons; an 8-court indoor tennis facility and
two outdoor swimming pools. The District also operates several historical, nature and interpretive centers including
The Grove, a 123 acre nature preserve of woods, ponds and trails with four restored buildings including a replica of
a school that served the area in 1853 all of which form this National Historic Landmark; Wagner Farm, an 18.8 acre
farm dating from the 1840's and converted into a demonstration working farm for educational purposes; Evelyn Tyner
Center and Air Station Prairie, a 3,000 square foot educational building which is a showcase for green technology
situated on a 32.5 acre native prairie and Schram Memorial Museum, the former navy chapel of the Glenview Naval
Air Station. In January 2001, the District's 165,000 square foot ($25.0 million) community building was opened at
The Glen's 142 acre great park (Gallery Park). The community building includes a health club, an indoor aquatic
complex, large and small gymnasiums, senior program space, banquet facilities, an early childhood wing, a cultural
arts wing and a 10,000 square foot healthcare facility operated by North Shore University Healthcare.
The recreational efforts of the District are supplemented by a total of 1,131 acres of Cook County Forest Preserves
in and adjacent to the Village with both bridle and bicycle paths, picnic areas, etc. along both the eastern and western
edges of the Village. In addition to the Park District's two golf courses (an 18-hole and a 9-hole) and the 18-hole "Glen
Club" course, within the Village there is one private 18-hole country club, and one private 18-hole executive golf
course as a part of a sports club which also includes a clubhouse, tennis courts, paddle tennis courts, an indoor
swimming pool and a beach at the 38-acre lake.
30
EMPLOYEES AND UNIONS
The Village employs a staff of 293.325 full-time equivalent employees.
Other recognized and certified bargaining units include:
Bargaining Unit (No. of Employees) Contract Status
Firefighters (75) expires 12/31/2014
Police (53) expires 12/31/2015
Public Works (35) expired 12/31/2010, in negotiations

LIABILITIES FOR OTHER POST EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS
The Village provides post employment health care and life insurance benefits (OPEB) for retired employees through
a single-employer defined benefit plan. The benefits, benefit levels, employee contributions, and employer
contributions are governed by the Village and can be amended by the Village through its personnel manual and union
contracts. The plan is not accounted for as a trust fund, as an irrevocable trust has not been established to account
for the plan. The plan does not issue a separate report. See Note J of the Village’s Annual Financial Report in
Appendix A for full details.
LITIGATION
There is no litigation threatened or pending questioning the organization or boundaries of the Village or the right of
any of its officers to their respective offices or in any manner questioning their rights and power to execute and deliver
the Bonds or otherwise questioning the validity of the Bonds. The Village’s Attorney reports that any litigation and
claims currently pending against the Village are being handled by the Village’s insurance carrier or outside counsel
and will not affect the issuance or payments of the Bonds.

Capital Assets
(as of December 31, 2010)
Note: Capital assets, which include property, buildings, vehicles, equipment and infrastructure assets (e.g. roads,
bridges, and similar items), are reported in the applicable governmental or business-type activities columns in the
government-wide financial statements. Capital assets are defined as those having an estimated useful life greater than
one year with an initial, individual cost of more than $25,000. Such assets are recorded at historical cost, or estimated
historical cost if purchased or constructed. Donated capital assets are recorded at estimated fair market value at the
date of donation. The costs of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or materially
extend asset lives are not capitalized. Major outlays for capital assets and improvements are capitalized as projects
are constructed. Interest incurred during the construction phase of capital assets of business-type activities is included
as part of the capitalized value of the assets constructed. Capital assets are depreciated using the straight line method
over the estimated useful lives.

FORM OF LEGAL OPINION
PROPOSED FORM OF OPINION OF BOND COUNSEL
[LETTERHEAD OF CHAPMAN AND CUTLER LLP]
[TO BE DATED CLOSING DATE]
We hereby certify that we have examined certified copy of the proceedings (the
“Proceedings”) of the President and Board of Trustees of the Village of Glenview, Cook
County, Illinois (the “Village”), passed preliminary to the issue by the Village of its fully
registered General Obligation Refunding Bonds, Series 2012A (the “Bonds”) to the amount of
$________________, dated the date hereof, of the denomination of $5,000 or authorized integral
multiples thereof, and due serially on December 1 of the years and in the amounts and bearing
interest at the rates percent per annum as follows:
YEAR AMOUNT ($) RATE (%)
2019
2020
2021
Each Bond bears interest from the later of the dated date as stated above or from the most recent
interest payment date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, until the principal
amount of each Bond, respectively, is paid or duly provided for, such interest (computed upon
the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months) being payable on June 1 and December 1
of each year, commencing on December 1, 2012.
The Bonds have been issued generally for the purpose of refunding certain outstanding
General Obligation Bonds, Series 2004A, of the Village.
From such examination, we are of the opinion that the Proceedings show lawful authority
for the issuance of the Bonds under the laws of the State of Illinois now in force.
We further certify that we have examined the form of Bond prescribed and find the same
in due form of law, and in our opinion the Bonds, to the amount named, are valid and legally
binding obligations of the Village, and all taxable property in the Village is subject to the levy of
taxes to pay the same without limitation as to rate or amount, except that the rights of the owners
of the Bonds and the enforceability of the Bonds may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
B-2
reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights and by equitable
principles, whether considered at law or in equity, including the exercise of judicial discretion.
It is our opinion that, subject to the Village’s compliance with certain covenants, under
present law, interest on the Bonds is excludable from gross income of the owners thereof for
federal income tax purposes and is not included as an item of tax preference in computing the
alternative minimum tax for individuals and corporations under the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended, but is taken into account in computing an adjustment used in determining the
federal alternative minimum tax for certain corporations. Failure to comply with certain of such
Village covenants could cause interest on the Bonds to be includible in gross income for federal
income tax purposes retroactively to the date of issuance of the Bonds. Ownership of the Bonds
may result in other federal tax consequences to certain taxpayers, and we express no opinion
regarding any such collateral consequences arising with respect to the Bonds. In rendering our
opinion on tax exemption, we have relied on the mathematical computation of the yield on the
Bonds and the yield on certain investments by Barthe & Wahrman, Bloomington, Minnesota,
Certified Public Accountants.
We express no opinion herein as to the accuracy, adequacy or completeness of the
Official Statement relating to the Bonds.
In rendering this opinion, we have relied upon certifications of the Village with respect to
certain material facts within the Village’s knowledge. Our opinion represents our legal judgment
based upon our review of the law and the facts that we deem relevant to render such opinion and
is not a guarantee of a result. This opinion is given as of the date hereof and we assume no
obligation to revise or supplement this opinion to reflect any facts or circumstances that may
hereafter come to our attention or any changes in law that may hereafter occur.
C-1
APPENDIX C
BOOK-ENTRY-ONLY SYSTEM
1. The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"), New York, New York, will act as securities depository for the securities
(the "Securities"). The Securities will be issued as fully-registered securities registered in the name of Cede & Co.
(DTC's partnership nominee) or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC.
One fully-registered Security certificate will be issued for [each issue of] the Securities, [each] in the aggregate
principal amount of such issue, and will be deposited with DTC. [If, however, the aggregate principal amount of
[any] issue exceeds $500 million, one certificate will be issued with respect to each $500 million of principal
amount, and an additional certificate will be issued with respect to any remaining principal amount of such issue.]
2. DTC, the world's largest securities depository, is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York
Banking Law, a "banking organization" within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the
Federal Reserve System, a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code,
and a "clearing agency" registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934. DTC holds and provides asset servicing for over 3.5 million issues of U.S. and non-U.S. equity issues,
corporate and municipal debt issues, and money market instruments (from over 100 countries) that DTC's
participants ("Direct Participants") deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the post-trade settlement among Direct
Participants of sales and other securities transactions in deposited securities, through electronic computerized
book-entry transfers and pledges between Direct Participants' accounts. This eliminates the need for physical
movement of securities certificates. Direct Participants include both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and
dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and certain other organizations. DTC is a wholly-owned
subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation ("DTCC"). DTCC is the holding company for DTC,
National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are registered
clearing agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its regulated subsidiaries. Access to the DTC system is also
available to others such as both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, and
clearing corporations that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Direct Participant, either
directly or indirectly ("Indirect Participants"). DTC has a Standard & Poor's rating of AA+. The DTC Rules
applicable to its Participants are on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. More information about
DTC can be found at www.dtcc.com and www.dtc.org.
3. Purchases of Securities under the DTC system must be made by or through Direct Participants, which will receive
a credit for the Securities on DTC's records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of each Security
("Beneficial Owner") is in turn to be recorded on the Direct and Indirect Participants' records. Beneficial Owners
will not receive written confirmation from DTC of their purchase. Beneficial Owners are, however, expected to
receive written confirmations providing details of the transaction, as well as periodic statements of their holdings,
from the Direct or Indirect Participant through which the Beneficial Owner entered into the transaction. Transfers
of ownership interests in the Securities are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of Direct and Indirect
Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not receive certificates representing
their ownership interests in Securities, except in the event that use of the book-entry system for the Securities is
discontinued.
4. To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Securities deposited by Direct Participants with DTC are registered in the
name of DTC's partnership nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as may be requested by an authorized
representative of DTC. The deposit of Securities with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede & Co. or
such other DTC nominee do not effect any change in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual
Beneficial Owners of the Securities; DTC's records reflect only the identity of the Direct Participants to whose
accounts such Securities are credited, which may or may not be the Beneficial Owners. The Direct and Indirect
Participants will remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.
C-2
5. Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct Participants, by Direct Participants to Indirect
Participants, and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by
arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to
time. [Beneficial Owners of Securities may wish to take certain steps to augment the transmission to them of
notices of significant events with respect to the Securities, such as redemptions, tenders, defaults, and proposed
amendments to the Security documents. For example, Beneficial Owners of Securities may wish to ascertain that
the nominee holding the Securities for their benefit has agreed to obtain and transmit notices to Beneficial Owners.
In the alternative, Beneficial Owners may wish to provide their names and addresses to the registrar and request
that copies of notices be provided directly to them.]
6. Redemption notices shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the Securities within an issue are being redeemed,
DTC's practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each Direct Participant in such issue to be
redeemed.
7. Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor any other DTC nominee) will consent or vote with respect to Securities unless
authorized by a Direct Participant in accordance with DTC's MMI Procedures. Under its usual procedures, DTC
mails an Omnibus Proxy to Village as soon as possible after the record date. The Omnibus Proxy assigns Cede
& Co.'s consenting or voting rights to those Direct Participants to whose accounts Securities are credited on the
record date (identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy).
8. Redemption proceeds, distributions, and dividend payments on the Securities will be made to Cede & Co., or such
other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. DTC's practice is to credit Direct
Participants' accounts upon DTC's receipt of funds and corresponding detail information from the Village or
Agent, on payable date in accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC's records. Payments by
Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case
with securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in "street name," and will be the
responsibility of such Participant and not of DTC, Agent, or the Village, subject to any statutory or regulatory
requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Payment of redemption proceeds, distributions, and dividend
payments to Cede & Co. (or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC) is
the responsibility of the Village or Agent, disbursement of such payments to Direct Participants will be the
responsibility of DTC, and disbursement of such payments to the Beneficial Owners will be the responsibility of
Direct and Indirect Participants.
9. A Beneficial Owner shall give notice to elect to have its Securities purchased or tendered, through its Participant,
to [Tender/Remarketing] Agent, and shall effect delivery of such Securities by causing the Direct Participant to
transfer the Participant's interest in the Securities, on DTC's records, to [Tender/Remarketing] Agent. The
requirement for physical delivery of Securities in connection with an optional tender or a mandatory purchase will
be deemed satisfied when the ownership rights in the Securities are transferred by Direct Participants on DTC's
records and followed by a book-entry credit of tendered Securities to [Tender/Remarketing] Agent's DTC account.
10. DTC may discontinue providing its services as depository with respect to the Securities at any time by giving
reasonable notice to the Village or Agent. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor depository is
not obtained, Security certificates are required to be printed and delivered.
11. The Village may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry-only transfers through DTC (or a successor
securities depository). In that event, Security certificates will be printed and delivered to DTC.
12. The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC's book-entry system has been obtained from sources
that the Village believes to be reliable, but the Village takes no responsibility for the accuracy thereof.

Bids must be submitted to Ehlers via one of the methods described above and must be received prior to the time

A good faith deposit (the "Deposit") in the amount of $373,200, complying with the provisions below, must be
submitted with each bid. The Deposit must be in the form of a certified or cashier's check, or a financial surety bond
or a wire transfer of funds to KleinBank, 1550 Audubon Road, Chaska, Minnesota, ABA No. 091915654 for
credit: Ehlers & Associates Good Faith Account No. 3208138. The Deposit will be retained by the Village as
liquidated damages if the bid is accepted and the bidder fails to comply therewith. The Deposit will be returned to
the winning bidder at the closing for the Bonds.
The Deposit, payable to the Village, shall be retained in the offices of Ehlers with the same effect as if delivered to
the Village. Alternatively, bidders may wire the Deposit to KleinBank, 1550 Audubon Road, Chaska, Minnesota,
ABA No. 091915654 for credit: Ehlers & Associates Good Faith Account No. 3208138. The Village and any
bidder who chooses to so wire the Deposit hereby agree irrevocably that Ehlers shall be the escrow holder of the
Deposit wired to such account subject only to these conditions and duties: 1) All income earned thereon shall be
retained by the escrow holder as payment for its expenses; 2) If the bid is not accepted, Ehlers shall, at its expense,
promptly return the Deposit amount to the losing bidder; 3) If the bid is accepted, the Deposit shall be returned to the
winning bidder at the closing; 4) Ehlers shall bear all costs of maintaining the escrow account and returning the funds
to the bidder; 5) Ehlers shall not be an insurer of the Deposit amount and shall have no liability hereunder except if
it willfully fails to perform, or recklessly disregards, its duties specified herein; and 6) FDIC insurance on deposits
within the escrow account shall be limited to $250,000 per bidder.
If a financial surety bond is used, it must be from an insurance company licensed to issue such a bond in the State of
Illinois, and preapproved by the Village. Such bond must be submitted to Ehlers prior to the opening of the bids.
Such bond must identify each bidder whose Deposit is guaranteed by such financial surety bond. If the Bonds are
awarded to a bidder using a financial surety bond, then that bidder is required to submit its Deposit to Ehlers in the
form of a certified or cashier's check or wire transfer as instructed by Ehlers not later than 3:00 P.M., Central Time,
on the next business day following the award. If such Deposit is not received by that time, the financial surety bond
may be drawn by the Village to satisfy the Deposit requirement. The amount securing the successful bid will be
retained as liquidated damages if the bid is accepted and the bidder fails to comply therewith. No bid can be
withdrawn after the time set for receiving bids unless the meeting of the Village scheduled for award of the Bonds
is adjourned, recessed, or continued to another date without award of the Bonds having been made.
E-4
By submitting a bid, any bidder makes the representation that it understands Bond Counsel represents the Village in
the Bond transaction and, if such bidder has retained Bond Counsel in an unrelated matter, such bidder consents to
and waives any conflict of interest arising from any adverse position to the Village in this matter; such consent and
waiver shall supersede any formalities otherwise required in any separate understandings, guidelines or contractual
arrangements between the bidder and Bond Counsel.
AWARD
The Bonds will be awarded to the bidder offering the lowest interest rate to be determined on a True Interest Cost
(TIC) basis. The Village’s computation of the interest rate of each bid, in accordance with customary practice, will
be controlling. In the event of a tie, the sale of the Bonds will be awarded by lot. The Village reserves the right to
reject any and all bids and to waive any informality in any bid.
BOND INSURANCE
If the Bonds are qualified for any bond insurance policy, the purchase of such policy shall be at the sole option and
expense of the winning bidder. Any cost for such insurance policy is to be paid by the winning bidder, except that,
if the Village requested and received a rating on the Bonds from a rating agency, the Village will pay that rating fee.
Any rating agency fees not requested by the Village are the responsibility of the winning bidder.
Failure of the municipal bond insurer to issue the policy after the Bonds are awarded to the winning bidder shall not
constitute cause for failure or refusal by the winning bidder to accept delivery of the Bonds.
CUSIP NUMBERS
The Village will assume no obligation for the assignment or printing of CUSIP numbers on the Bonds or for the
correctness of any numbers printed thereon, but will permit such numbers to be printed at the expense of the winning
bidder, if the winning bidder waives any delay in delivery occasioned thereby.
NON-QUALIFIED TAX-EXEMPT OBLIGATIONS
The Village will not designate the Bonds as qualified tax-exempt obligations for purposes of Section 265(b)(3) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
CONTINUING DISCLOSURE
In order to assist the Underwriters in complying with the provisions of Rule 15c2-12 promulgated by the Securities
and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 the Village will enter into an undertaking (the
"Undertaking") for the benefit of the holders of the Bonds. A description of the details and terms of the Undertaking
is set forth in the Preliminary Official Statement. There have been no instances in the previous five years in which
the Village has failed to comply, in all material respects, with any undertaking previously entered into by it
pursuant to the Rule.
INFORMATION FROM WINNING BIDDER
The successful purchaser will be required to provide, in a timely manner, certain information relating to the initial
offering prices of the Bonds necessary to compute the yield on the Bonds pursuant to the provisions of the Internal
