Motion Extending the Diabetes Disease Management Program for One Year PREPARED BY: Jennifer A. Keigher, Human Resources Supervisor REVIEWED BY: Mark R. Peterson, City Manager Pamela S. Reece, Deputy City Manager BUDGET IMPACT: The estimated cost to extend the program is $36,980 for one

year. Adequate funds are available in the Health Insurance Fund to accommodate this expense.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approval

BACKGROUND In August 2009, Council authorized participation in a diabetes program for the purposes of 1) reducing direct healthcare costs with fewer hospitalizations and better daily management of the condition; and 2) assisting employees by encouraging healthier choices and promoting healthy lifestyles. Under this program, employees and spouses covered by the Town’s health plan who are diagnosed with diabetes have the opportunity to meet three times per year with a Certified Diabetes Educator (CDE) for education, monitoring and setting personal goals for disease management. In exchange for their time in meeting with the CDE, participants are offered the following benefits:

Visits with the CDE are at no cost to the employee or spouse

On-going one-on-one care with the personal coach (the CDE)

Co-pays are waived for diabetes-related physician visits

Decreased cost sharing for diabetes-related durable medical equipment

Co-pays are waived for diabetes-related prescription drugs

Free glucose meters and strips

The CDEs collaborate with healthcare providers, maintain documentation and report outcomes to the Heartland Healthcare Coalition, apply knowledge, skills and performance assessments of the patient and comply with acceptable standards and HIPAA requirements. The Town’s role in the program is to encourage participation and invest in employees’ health to enhance their quality of life and assist them in proper management of the disease.

The initial program approved in 2009 was extended in 2011 for one year and has since been renewed on an annual basis. In 2013, the program was expanded to include the pre-diabetes diagnosis as an eligible condition for participation.


DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, there are now nearly 30 million Americans who have diabetes; the prevalence of this disease is growing at an epidemic rate. According to the American Diabetes Association, in 2015, approximately 9.4% of the population (around 30.3 million Americans) had diabetes. Of this number, 7.2 million had the disease but didn’t know it. The nation’s experience continues to play out in Illinois; 983,000 adults (9.9% of the population) have diabetes, and around 685,000 adults have pre-diabetes (i.e. blood glucose levels higher than normal but not yet high enough to be diagnosed as diabetes). For an individual with diabetes, medical expenses are approximately 2.3 times higher than for those who do not have diabetes. These numbers translate to increased expenses for self-insured employers, both due to higher direct medical expenses for diabetic covered individuals and due to indirect costs (including lost productivity due to diabetes). The Town has continued to experience exceptional attendance of our annual health risk appraisals, with a notable 99% participation rate in 2016 (making 2016 the third year in a row with 99% or more participation). With such a high level of completion, we are very confident in the statistics we have gathered in our six years of conducting health screenings. In January 2012, the aggregate data for our employee and retiree group, including spouses covered by the group insurance plan, indicated 40.2% of participants tested outside the normal glucose range. In 2016, only 18.6% of individuals fell outside the normal glucose range, marking a drastic improvement in our group population’s health. Based on the Town of Normal Employee Group Insurance 2016 health screening results, 5.8% of participants, around 38 individuals, were classified as diabetic based on blood glucose measurements. This number includes employees, retirees and their spouses in the group health plan who participated in a health screening. Notably, this is the number of individuals who currently have an elevated A1c; not necessarily the total number of individuals who are diagnosed as diabetic within our health plan. Twenty-seven employees or spouses already diagnosed with diabetes are currently participating in the Diabetes Disease Management Program. The number of participants will likely decrease in 2018 due to health plan migration, both of post-65 retirees and spouses moving to the Benistar plan and of active employees switching to Plan 3 (a high deductible plan option that does not qualify for the Diabetes Management Program). The overall percentage of our group with a normal fasting glucose reading has risen from 59.8% in January 2012 to 81.4% in December 2016. Further, the number of prediabetic participants has dropped from 32% in January 2012 to 12.8% in December 2016. The projected costs of this program are as follows:

Those already diagnosed as diabetic: CDE Expense $80 per hour x 25 participants x 2 hours $4,000

Rx and Provider Claims $1300 per participant x 25 participants $32,500 (Paid at 100% rather than 80%)

Those designated as pre-diabetic:

CDE Expense $80 per hour x 3 participants x 2 hours $480 TOTAL PROJECTED ONE YEAR EXPENSE $36,980


Staff recommends implementing modifications to the pharmacy benefit and to the compliance components of this program for the coming year. First, the pharmacy benefit as it now exists covers 100% of all pharmacy expenses, including costs for medications in non-preferred and specialty drug tiers. To encourage health consumerism and engagement from participants, and to mitigate cost from high-dollar specialty medications, staff recommends adjusting benefit administration to better manage prescription drug therapies for participants. Additionally, staff recommends utilizing the Interactive Health wellness portal to help satisfy the current educational requirements of the program. Participants would be able to visit a CDE and/or use web-based education via Interactive Health to manage their health, giving participants more flexibility in coping with this condition. With the proposed changes, program participants will still be able to take advantage of all the program benefits including the waived co-pays for physician visits, durable medical equipment and formulary and generic drugs in addition to education from CDE’s and Interactive Health. Proposed co-pays associated with non-formulary and specialty drugs are lower than the traditional group insurance program; thus employees, spouses and retirees will pay less for prescription drugs by participating in the Diabetes Management program. Staff recommends renewal of the Diabetes Disease Management Program for another year, which serves employees, retirees and their spouses who participate in one of the PPO health plan options of the group insurance program.

BUDGET IMPACT: N/A STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approval ATTACHMENTS: Proposed Resolution BACKGROUND The Bloomington-Normal Jaycees will again be sponsoring the Christmas Parade and have requested permission from the Town of Normal to temporarily close College Avenue and Kingsley Street to Division Street on Saturday, December 2, 2017 between the hours of 10:00 to 11:30 a.m. Kingsley Street is also U.S. Route 51, a marked state highway. Section 4-408 of the Illinois Highway Code authorizes the Illinois Department of Transportation to issue permits to local authorities to temporarily close portions of state highways for such public purposes as parades and local celebrations. The request has been granted in past years and has not posed a problem to the public. The closing of the street allows the uninterrupted flow of the Christmas Parade and adds a margin of safety to pedestrian traffic in the area. For these reasons, staff recommends the temporary closing of Kingsley Street and College Avenue to Division Street be approved and that permission be sought from the Illinois Department of Transportation for the temporary closing of U.S. Route 51 south between the hours stated above.

Resolution Authorizing the Renewal of a Joint Agreement with the City of Bloomington and the Ecology Action Center for an Energy Efficiency Program PREPARED BY: Pamela S. Reece, Deputy City Manager REVIEWED BY: Mark R. Peterson, City Manager BUDGET IMPACT: This program will be funded from line item 001-1030-413.30-40

in the amount of $29,435.00

STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approval ATTACHMENTS: Proposed Resolution, Proposed Agreement

BACKGROUND In 2014, the Town entered into an intergovernmental agreement with the City of Bloomington and the Ecology Action Center on a program to promote energy efficiency and associated education. Illinois municipalities with electric aggregation programs are required to adopt a Plan of Operation and Governance prior to entering into aggregation agreements with alternative energy suppliers. The Town’s Plan of Governance, approved by the Council in November 2012, included a mandated Energy Efficiency Initiative offering energy conservation education to residents and small businesses. Bloomington adopted a similar Plan of Operation and Governance in 2014. The Town and City entered into an agreement with the Ecology Action Center (EAC) in 2014 for a joint energy conservation education program which would meet the objectives outlined in the Plans of Governance.

Municipalities are allowed to assess a small fee to aggregation customers to fund energy conservation programs and their administration. During the initial aggregation period, the Town collected this fee and applied it to this educational program. Upon renewal of the following two electric aggregation agreements, the Town elected to eliminate the fee and fund the program from the General Fund.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS The EAC has proposed renewing the agreement for a two year period to run from May 1, 2016 through April 30, 2020 with an automatic renewal provision for a cost of living fee increase after April 2019 equal to the lesser of 3% or the percentage increase in the CPI-U. The current program support is shared with Normal contributing $28,264 (42%) and Bloomington contributing $39,031 (58%) for a total program cost of $67,295. As detailed in the attached proposal, the program continues the development of educational programming and outreach. The EAC will also advance current programs to assist citizens and eligible small businesses on energy efficient solutions.


Through this Energy Efficiency Program, the Ecology Action Center provides resources to local residents to encourage increased energy conservation and energy efficiency. Low-cost home energy audits are provided, identifying and prioritizing strategies by which residents can save money on utility bills; examples include usage of more energy-efficient technology (programmable thermostats, LED lighting, high-efficiency furnaces and air conditioners), increasing weatherization (air-sealing, insulation), energy-reducing water conservation (low-flow faucet aerators and shower heads) and behavior change (raising/lowering thermostat settings and lowering water heater temperatures). An in-depth analysis of current utility bills helps provide insight into existing inefficiencies within HVAC systems and other equipment, as well as impacts of occupancy behavior and equipment use. Low cost energy audits are also offered to small businesses enrolled in municipal electricity aggregation programs. Similar strategies can also benefit this sector, with an added range of equipment and behaviors investigated, including computer networks and commercial food preparation equipment, and use of lighting controls and locking thermostat covers. In addition, installation of renewable energy generation technologies and potential savings is also included in appropriate situations. Further, the EAC offers educational resources on ways to save energy at home or work, as well as service provider listings and financial incentives, are provided through a content-rich website, consultations with EAC energy staff, information tables at community events, and educational presentations. Usage of both traditional media and social media, as well as leveraging existing community partnerships for outreach allows for high visibility of the program and broad dissemination of information and service. Under the proposed renewal, Normal will contribute $29,435 (41.8%) commencing May 1, 2018. Upon approval by the City of Bloomington, Bloomington’s contribution will be $40,648 (58.2%) for a total program cost of $70,083 per year. This reflects an increase of 4.1% over the current program agreement; however, the Ecology Action Center administered the program for two years with no fee increase. The April 1, 2016 through March 31, 2018 program retained a consistent program cost for the duration of the agreement. Staff recommends Council approve the renewal of the Energy Efficiency Program with the Ecology Action Center and City of Bloomington for an additional two year period.

RESOLUTION NO. __________________ A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING EXECUTION OF AN ENERGY EFFICIENCY PROGRAM AGREEMENT WITH THE CITY OF BLOOMINGTON AND THE ECOLOGY ACTION CENTER

WHEREAS, the Town of Normal is a Home Rule Unit of local government with authority to legislate in matters concerning its local government and affairs; and WHEREAS, the Town of Normal, City of Bloomington and the Ecology Action Center desire to establish a framework for the continuing administration and implementation of the Bloomington-Normal Energy Efficiency Program to include energy efficiency and conservation education and outreach for the Town of Normal and City of Bloomington and to assist the municipalities in meeting the requirements of the Illinois Power Agency Act; and WHEREAS, it is in the best interest of the health, safety and welfare of the citizens of Normal to enter into an Energy Efficiency Program Agreement with the City of Bloomington and the McLean County Regional Planning Commission.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE PRESIDENT AND BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE TOWN OF NORMAL, ILLINOIS:

SECTION ONE: That the Town of Normal authorizes the President of the Board of Trustees to enter into an Energy Efficiency Program Agreement with the City of Bloomington and the Ecology Action Center.

MEMO

To: Jim, Karch, City of Bloomington & Pamela Reece, Town of Normal

From: Michael Brown

Date: November 17, 2017

Subject: Renewal of Bloomington-Normal Energy Efficiency Program Agreement

Please find attached a draft agreement for renewal of the

existing Bloomington-Normal Energy Efficiency program

provided by the Ecology Action Center (EAC) on behalf of the

City of Bloomington and Town of Normal. The EAC created

the program in 2014 at the request of the two cities in order

to meet needs for energy efficiency services per the

municipal electricity aggregation plans of operation and governance.

Through BN Energy Bright, the Ecology Action Center provides resources to local residents to encourage increased

energy conservation and energy efficiency. Low-cost home energy audits are provided, identifying and prioritizing

strategies by which residents can save money on utility bills; examples include usage of more energy-efficient

technology (programmable thermostats, LED lighting, high-

efficiency furnaces and air conditioners), increasing

weatherization (air-sealing, insulation), energy-reducing

water conservation (low-flow faucet aerators and shower

heads) and behavior change (raising/lowering thermostat

settings and lowering water heater temperatures). An in-

depth analysis of current utility bills helps provide insight

into existing inefficiencies within HVAC systems and other

equipment, as well as impacts of occupancy behavior and

equipment use.

The program also offers low-cost energy audits to small

businesses enrolled in municipal electricity aggregation

programs. Similar strategies can also benefit this sector,

with an added range of equipment and behaviors

investigated, including computer networks and commercial

food preparation equipment, and use of lighting controls

and locking thermostat covers. In addition, installation of

renewable energy generation technologies and potential

savings is also included in appropriate situations.

The Ecology Action Center provides educational

resources on ways to save energy at home or work, as

well as service provider listings and financial incentives

through a content-rich website, consultations with EAC

energy staff, information tables at community events,

and educational presentations. Usage of both traditional

media and social media, as well as leveraging existing

community partnerships for outreach allows for high

visibility of the program and broad dissemination of

information and service.

The success of BN Energy Bright has positioned the

Ecology Action Center as an informed energy resource

for Bloomington-Normal and surrounding communities.

Through the program the EAC was able to leverage new

partnerships to expand services to the community.

In 2016, The EAC partnered with the Midwest Renewable

Energy Association and offered McLean County a bulk-

solar purchasing program with free educational

presentations, to expand solar literacy and solar power in

the community. Solar Bloomington-Normal resulted in

over 430kw of new solar installations. With Illinois’ new energy legislation, there is a high potential to repeat this

successful initiative.

More recently, the Illinois Green Economy Network sought out the

EAC as a new host for the Midwest Energy Efficiency Alliance’s Illinois

Home Performance Equipment Loan Program. The Equipment Loan

Program assists eligible home performance professionals to hone and

enhance their skills by making energy evaluation equipment available

to them to use no charge. Typically, through IGEN, the equipment for

the program is housed at participating Illinois community colleges,

but due to the EAC’s existing efficiency program and dedicated staff,

IGEN partnered with the EAC when one of the energy kits needed a new host site.

In order to use the equipment for the BN Energy Bright program audits, the program coordinator received training

at no cost to the EAC, and is now a certified Diagnostic Energy Tester.

The EAC staff provides assistance as needed to the municipalities in relationship to energy efficiency and

renewable energy initiatives. This activity includes, but is not limited to, assisting the City of Bloomington with

their 2017 Bloomberg Mayors Challenge and connecting the Town of Normal to energy services providers.

The BN Energy Bright program also helps Bloomington and Normal in meeting objectives identified in recent

comprehensive plans developed by the McLean County Regional Planning Commission. Objective NE-3.1 in the

Bloomington 2015 Comprehensive Plan is to “Identify and reduce air pollutants”. The 2017 Town of Normal

Comprehensive Plan 2040 Strategy HS2.1 is similar, “Reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Improve Air Quality.”

Per the Ecology Action Center’s 2014 Bloomington-Normal Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory, 77.7% of local

emissions measured in that study are from stationary energy usage—this means largely electricity and natural gas

usage for heating, cooling, and powering our homes and businesses. This energy usage is the target of the BN

Energy Bright program energy audits; in addition, efforts like Solar Bloomington-Normal can help further reduce

air quality emissions through development of local, decentralized clean and renewable energy production.

Motion to Authorize an Amendment to the FY 2017-18 Illinois Municipal Retirement Fund (IMRF) Budget for the General Fund PREPARED BY: Andrew Huhn, Director of Finance REVIEWED BY: Mark R. Peterson, City Manager Pamela Reece, Duty City Manager BUDGET IMPACT: No Impact STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approval ATTACHMENTS: General Fund IMRF Budget Adjustments

BACKGROUND The 2017 tax levy for the IMRF budget within the General Fund is collected in FY2018-19 and used to fund the estimated FY2018-19 IMRF benefits. However, the Council cannot approve a tax levy during FY2017-18 that is expected to fund costs in FY2018-19 without the budget authority in the current year. Therefore, a budget adjustment is required in the current year so Council may set a tax levy for next year’s estimated IMRF costs. DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS It is recommended that the FY2017-18 IMRF budget be increased by $121,351 in order to provide the Council with budget authority to set the 2017 tax levy for those estimated costs in FY2018-19.

BACKGROUND The construction of the Town's Network began in 1998. The network was designed to electronically connect all Town facilities to improve communication and to create data sharing opportunities throughout the entire organization. Since that time, funds have been budgeted in the Equipment Replacement Reserve to make future enhancements to the network. The networking equipment purchased during the 2012-13 Fiscal Year, and storage purchased in the 2013-2014 Fiscal Year, are scheduled for replacement in this Fiscal Year. As a result, the Information Technology staff prepared a bid document for network infrastructure equipment and storage. The scope of this bid covers the replacement of network hardware across the Town and the Library including storage, voice gateways, routers, switches, firewall, wireless access points, and wireless controllers. Professional services were also sought assist with installation and configuration of new equipment, and to upgrade the voice over IP phone system to the current version. DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS Bids were opened for the 2017 Network Infrastructure project on Friday, November 3, 2017 at 3:00 p.m. All bids contained significant omissions, so revised bids were requested and opened on Tuesday, November 21, 2017 at 3:00 p.m. Four responses were received. The bid tabulation is attached to this report. Presidio Networked Solutions Group, LLC submitted 2 complete responses, one utilizing Cisco equipment, the other, Aruba equipment. The other 2 respondents provided pricing utilizing Cisco equipment but did not include pricing for data storage.


The project allowed for the Town to select a complete response or to award the itemized components of the project across different bidders as determined necessary to successfully complete the project within budget. Two bidders (Continental Resources and Sentinel) did not supply pricing for data storage. As a result, acquiring storage from the 3rd vendor (Presidio) to complete the project as specified with either of these bidders would exceed the project budget and add unnecessary complexity coordinating with multiple vendors. Staff has evaluated the bids, sought clarifications where necessary, performed reference checks on both equipment and professional services and is recommending Presidio Networked Solutions Group, LLC be awarded the bid in the amount of $904,063.06 for its Aruba proposal as its bid was a complete response to the sought-after equipment and services and the only one within the project budget. If approved, it is anticipated that the equipment will be received within 30 days. IT staff will work with Presidio on the installation and configuration of the equipment, which should be completed by March 31, 2018.

Resolution to Conditionally Approve a Final Plat for the Miller Storage Subdivision (2717 N. Main) PREPARED BY: Mercy Davison, Town Planner REVIEWED BY: Mark R. Peterson, City Manager Brian Day, Corporation Counsel BUDGET IMPACT: N/A STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approval ATTACHMENTS: Proposed Resolution; Proposed Final Plat; Aerial Map

BACKGROUND The miniwarehouses at 2717 N. Main Street are outside the Town’s corporate boundaries but within the Town’s 1.5-mile jurisdictional limits. The property is subject to a pre-annexation agreement approved in 2002 (Res. No. 3139). Among other things, the agreement permits the operation of the mini-warehouse as built. There are several other clauses in the agreement pertaining to any additional new development in the area; however, no development has occurred in a manner that would trigger the agreement provisions. At this time the owner would like to resubdivide the existing Lot 1 in the Resubdivision of Lot 2 Paul Bates Subdivision. The owner proposes to divide this 19.9 +/- acre lot into two lots. Lot 1 (4.01 +/- acres) would encompass the miniwarehouse development. Lot 2 would encompass the remaining farmland. The existing access point of North Main Street includes an ingress/egress easement to serve both lots so that a second entrance is not needed for agricultural access. No development fees are due as this property is not within any tap-on area nor does it impact any public infrastructure. Because this property is in the County, the County must also approve the final plat. DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS Final Plats may be approved via expedited process when the plat includes no more than three lots, when all property is contiguous and under common ownership, when no public improvements are necessitated, and when no code waivers are requested. The proposed Miller Storage Subdivision meets these conditions. Town staff has reviewed the proposed Final Plat and finds it to be in substantial compliance with all applicable subdivision and development codes. The approving ordinance contains the typical conditions pertaining to certificates and digital submittal in addition to a condition that the final plat be approved by the County. For these reasons, Town staff recommends conditional approval of the attached resolution pertaining to the proposed Miller Storage Subdivision.

Resolution Approving a Property Tax Settlement Agreement PREPARED BY: Mark R. Peterson, City Manager REVEIWED BY: Brian Day, Corporation Counsel BUDGET IMPACT: This settlement agreement will have no financial impact on the

Town of Normal. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approval ATTACHMENTS: Proposed Resolution, Settlement Agreement

BACKGROUND In 2015, the Township Assessor increased the Equalized Assessed Valuation on several multiple family properties within the Town of Normal that are owned and/or managed by First Site Management, Inc. First Site appealed the assessment increases alleging that the changes in the Equalized Assessed Valuation for all of those properties were excessive and did not reflect the .true market value of the properties. Unit Five Schools and Heartland Community College intervened as taxing bodies at the McLean County Board of Review level in 2015, 2016 and 2017. The 2015 and 2016 assessment complaints were then appealed by the property owners to the Illinois Property Tax Appeal Board (PTAB).

It was determined by the interveners, Unit Five and Heartland Community College, that it would be in the best interest of the local taxing jurisdictions to reach a settlement agreement for property tax years 2015, 2016 and 2017 as well as for the five future tax years, 2018 through 2022. It was the opinion of Unit Five and Heartland Community College staff that such a settlement agreement would curtail protracted litigation that would be costly to the taxing bodies with an uncertain outcome.

As part of the settlement agreement, the property owners have agreed to adjust the EAV upward 20% on each of the properties, which will provide significant gains in property valuation for all local taxing entities. Unit Five Schools took a lead role in negotiating this settlement agreement and finds it to be in the best interest of not only Unit Five Schools but all of the other local taxing jurisdictions including Heartland Community College, Town of Normal, McLean County, Bloomington Normal Water Reclamation District, Bloomington Normal Airport Authority, Normal Township Road District, Normal Township and Normal Public Library. A listing of the various properties that are affected by this settlement agreement are included as Exhibit B in the attached settlement agreement.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS The Town of Normal has not been directly involved in this matter but staff was aware of the dispute involving the reassessment on these multiple family properties, primarily student oriented housing, and were also aware that Unit Five Schools and Heartland Community College had officially filed intervention petitions. Staff recently met with representatives of Unit Five staff to discuss the proposed settlement


agreement. They were persuasive in arguing that such an agreement would be in the best long- term interest of all of the taxing bodies as the EAV for all of the affected properties would increase by a rate of 20% over the 2015 EAV, therefore providing very healthy valuation growth that will be advantageous to all of the property taxing entities. Town staff feels comfortable with the proposed property tax settlement agreement. The Unit Five School Board has approved the agreement as has Heartland Community College. It is my understanding that the County Board will be considering this agreement at their December board meeting and that the other smaller taxing jurisdictions have either already approved the agreement or are expected to do so before the end of the calendar year. It is staff’s recommendation that the agreement be approved.

RESOLUTION NO. __________________ A RESOLUTION APPROVING A PROPERTY TAX SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT

WHEREAS, the Town of Normal is a Home Rule Unit of local government with authority to legislate in matters concerning its local government and affairs; and WHEREAS, the Town, in cooperation with other units of government, desire to execute an agreement to settle the property-tax valuations of certain multi-family properties located in the Town of Normal; and WHEREAS, it is in the best interest of the health, safety and welfare of the citizens of Normal to execute the settlement agreement.


SECTION ONE: That the Town of Normal hereby authorizes the President of the Board of Trustees to enter into the settlement agreement in substantially the form as presented before the meeting of the Mayor and Board of Trustees at which this resolution is approved.

SECTION TWO: That the Town Clerk is hereby authorized and directed to attest to the signature of the President of the Board of Trustees on the agreement and to retain a fully executed original of it in her office for public inspection.

An Ordinance Approving a Redevelopment Agreement for the Property Located at 1404 Ft. Jesse Road PREPARED BY: Sally Heffernan, Economic Development Director REVIEWED BY: Mark R. Peterson, City Manager Brian Day, Corporation Counsel BUDGET IMPACT: $28,200 in unbudgeted revenue;

$9,860 unbudgeted expense for water extension STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approval ATTACHMENTS: Proposed Ordinance; Proposed Agreement; Property Aerial

BACKGROUND In 2015, the Town acquired the title to a vacant .91-acre parcel of land located at 1404 Ft. Jesse Road. The property was acquired without cost in exchange for releasing developers from the requirement to construct a sidewalk along Ft. Jesse as part of the Süds Business Park development (Res. 5167).

Since acquiring the vacant property, the Town has marketed it through a broker and presented it as a site for various for economic-development projects. A portion of the property is in the flood plan and buildable area is limited.

The Town has been approached by Eric Werkman who wishes to purchase the property to build and operate an auto body repair shop. Mr. Werkman is proposing to relocate and expand his existing business from 306 Pine Street.

An auto body repair shop is compatible with existing zoning and consistent with adjoining uses including an auto parts store.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS Key terms of the agreement include:

Minimum investment: The Developer agrees to invest a minimum of $655,000 in the project. 90-day due-diligence period: The Developer has 90 days after the agreement is signed to

conduct due diligence to ensure that the project is feasible. He can terminate the agreement within that 90-day period.

Project timelines: The Developer must submit plans to the Town within 90 days after the due-diligence period; he must begin construction within 30 days after the Town approves the plans; and construction must be complete within 180 days after construction begins.


Minimum operation: The Developer must open for business as an auto body repair facility at least 45 days after construction is complete and must stay open for business for at least 24 consecutive months.

Property sale: The Town will sell the property to the Developer for $30,000, which is less than its current market value.

Water service. The Town will extend a 2” water service connection to the property and waive the various water connection fees.

Resale on default. If the Developer defaults, then the Town may require that the Developer sell the land back to the Town for $30,000 less the amount of the costs of the installation of the water service, including any waived fees.

The sale of this property will result in net revenue to the Town totaling $18,340 after payment of the broker fee ($1,800) and the aforementioned water service extension ($9,860).

November 30, 2017

Ordinance Authorizing the 2017 Property Tax Levy PREPARED BY: Andrew Huhn, Director of Finance REVIEWED BY: Mark R. Peterson, City Manager Pamela S. Reece, Deputy City Manager Brian Day, Corporation Counsel BUDGET IMPACT: The proposed levy will result in property tax revenue totaling $12,958,494 in FY 2018-19 STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approval ATTACHMENTS: Proposed Tax Levy Ordinance

BACKGROUND It is a statutory requirement that on or before the last Tuesday of December Council approve and file the tax levy with the County Clerk. McLean County will assess a tax rate to produce the dollars levied in this ordinance. The current year budget provides the authority to levy property taxes for the following year. Council reviewed the proposed 2017 property tax levy on November 6, 2017 and directed staff to prepare the tax levy ordinance. The 2017 Tax Levy Ordinance, if approved, would make various sums of money available to the Town of Normal for specified purposes through the collection of real estate taxes. All statutory requirements have been met, including Council review of this proposed tax levy on November 6, 2017. A public hearing on the proposed tax levy is required since the total increase over last year’s levy is more than 5%. This hearing was conducted earlier this evening. DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS The recommended property tax levy for 2017 is $12,958,494 which represents a $783,694 (6.44%) increase over last year’s levy.

The chart below breaks out (for comparison purposes) the overall tax levy amount by tax year, funding component and percent change.

Total $12,174,800 $12,958,494 $783,694 6.44%


Below is a description of each levy component.

General Fund Operations - this levy is used to help support the Town’s primary operations. This includes Police, Fire, Inspections, Public Works, Parks and Recreation and Administrative Services. This levy has been kept at the same level as last year and has remained the same or lower since FY2005-06.

Police and Fire Contributions – these levies are calculated by an independent actuary and controlled by State law as well as Town policy. The levy has been set to insure a pension contribution that continues to move the pension funding level at a pace to reach 100% funding by 2040. This is the Town’s policy and it exceeds the State’s minimum requirement of 90% by 2040.

IMRF and Social Security Contributions – these levies are a function of rates charged to the Town’s payroll. The Social Security and Medicare rate is dictated by the Federal government to insure funding is available for those programs. The IMRF rate is dictated by IMRF and developed from an independent actuarial valuation.

Library Fund Levy – This levy is used to support the operational needs of the Town Library and is set at a level to insure a fiscally sound Library operation. This levy has been kept at last year’s level.

The total 2017 property tax rate is projected to increase 0.0834 cents, which would produce a rate of $1.4949. This tax rate assumes a 0.5% increase in Town’s equalized assessed valuation. Actual assessed values will not be known until April 2018. Increases above the projected assessed value will lower the tax rate below current projections.

Impact to a Normal Resident

The Town Council only controls an estimated 17.3% of a resident’s tax bill (12.1% for the Town and 5.2% for the Normal Public Library). As illustrated in the chart below, one can see that there are a number of taxing jurisdictions that impact a Normal resident’s total tax bill. Most notably, Unit 5, which makes up over 60% of the total tax bill.

The property tax rate proposed in this report will result in a resident seeing an estimated increase of $40 in their property tax bill. This assumes a home value of $165,000.

It is staff’s recommendation that Council approve the 2017 tax levy of $12,958,494 to be collected in FY2018-19.

Ordinances Authorizing the Abatement of 2017 Property Taxes for Debt Service PREPARED BY: Andrew Huhn, Director of Finance REVIEWED BY: Mark R. Peterson, City Manager Pamela S. Reece, Deputy City Manager Brian Day, Corporation Counsel BUDGET IMPACT: None STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approval ATTACHMENTS: Proposed Ordinances

BACKGROUND Attached are 11 ordinances required to abate $5,746,253 in property taxes for the following bonds:

2008 bonds issued on August 2008 2009 bonds issued on July 2009 to refund the 2003 bond 2009 (A) bonds issued on July 2009 (Build America Bonds) 2010 (A) bonds issued on November 2010 (Recovery Zone Bonds) 2012 bonds issued on September 2012 to refund 2004 bonds 2013 bonds issued on November 2013 to refund 2005 bonds 2014 bonds issued on November 2014 2016 (A) bonds issued on March 2016 to refund 2006 bonds 2016 (B) bonds issued on March 2016 2017 (A) bonds issued on March 2017 to refund 2007 bonds 2017 (B) bonds issued on March 2017 to refund 2007 bonds Special Service Area Bonds (SSA) issued on December 2004

State law requires the County to levy property taxes for the payment of these bonds. A municipality is permitted to abate the tax if sufficient funds are on hand to make the required principal and interest payments. Rather than levy a tax for the payment of these obligations, the Town has budgeted sufficient sums from other sources in the General, Water, and Sewer Funds to service this debt. The one exception to the abatement process relates to the Special Service Area (SSA) bonds issued for the Shoppes at College Hills development. The SSA bonds will be abated to the extent that the rebated 2/3 of the 1% sales tax dollars are available to meet required principal and interest payments. These bonds cannot be abated prior to December 31, 2017. This abatement calculation, based upon rebated sales tax on hand, will be made in January 2018. Council will then be requested to abate all or a portion of the 2017 levy, as necessary. This component of the tax levy has no impact on the overall Town property tax rate, which is estimated to be $1.4949.


DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS In order to abate the 2017 tax levy, collectible in 2018, it is appropriate that Council approve the proposed abatement ordinances that will certify to the County Clerk that sufficient funds are on hand or will be on hand when the principal and interest payments become due on June 1, 2018 and December 1, 2018, respectively. The required abatements are itemized below:

A recommendation for abatement of the SSA bonds will be submitted to Council in January or February 2018. By one motion, Council may approve all proposed ordinances to abate the property taxes for the 2008, 2009, 2009(A), 2010(A), 2012, 2013, 2014, 2016(A), 2016(B), 2017(A) and 2017(B) bond issues.

2008 Bond Issue 937,875 2009 Refunding Bond Issue (2003) 1,055,875 2009 Bond Issue (A) 354,000 2010 Bond Issue (A) 116,865 2012 Refunding Bond Issue (2004) 338,225 2013 Refunding Bond Issue (2005) 556,138 2014 Bond Issue 694,200 2016 Refunding Bond Issue (A) (2006) 546,150 2016 Bond Issue (B) 350,525 2017 Refunding Bond Issue (A) (2007) 422,800 2017 Refunding Bond Issue (B) (2007) 373,600 SSA Bond Issue 796,899 Total Bond Levy 6,543,152 Total Bond Levy to Abate (Minus SSA Bond) 5,746,253

Motion to Approve the FY2017-18 to FY2022-23 Community Investment Plan PREPARED BY: Andrew J. Huhn, Director of Finance REVIEWED BY: Mark R. Peterson, City Manager Pamela S. Reece, Deputy City Manager Ben McCready, Assistant to the City Manager BUDGET IMPACT: The projects contained in the Community Investment Plan will

be incorporated into the FY 2018-19 budget and formally presented to Council for approval in March 2018.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approval ATTACHMENTS: Community Investment Plan Report, Project Summary Sheets,

and the Parks and Open Space Summary Report

BACKGROUND The Community Investment Plan (CIP) is a document that is intended to assist the Town Council in their prioritization of major capital investments. In December of each year, Council reviews staff’s proposed capital project mix that covers a six year period. After receiving Council approval, staff then incorporates the corresponding projects into the Town’s annual operating and capital budget. The Council formally approves the project mix when considering the proposed operating and capital budget in March of the following year. The attached report provides a detailed overview of the CIP, including instructions on how to navigate the summary sheets and interpret the project categories and priority codes. In addition to the report, staff has attached a copy of the CIP summary sheets, which show all funded and unfunded projects by fund.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS The proposed FY2017-18 to FY2022-23 CIP includes 183 capital projects that are to be completed over a six-year period beginning in the current fiscal year. Those 183 projects total approximately $94.6 million dollars. Additionally, the report identifies $109.9 million of potential additional projects that are not being recommended over the six-year period. The projected spending in this year’s CIP is approximately $4.2 million less than the previous year’s CIP report.


The following table summarizes the expenditure differences by category between the current and previous year CIP.

The most significant change relates to the “Public Facilities” category, which decreased $6.7 million. This decrease, in large part, is due to the substantial completion of the Fire Station Headquarters. Staff will highlight a few of the significant capital projects and answer any questions. The full interactive report is currently posted in the headlines section of www.normal.org. The CIP report is available in the Finance Department section of the Town’s website.

TOWN OF NORMAL

COMMUNITY INVESTMENT PLAN FYE 2018 - 2023

Introduction

The Community Investment Plan (CIP) is a planning document intended to assist the Normal Town

Council in prioritizing major capital investments projected to take place over a six-year period.

Through preparation and review of each capital project in the CIP, Town staff and elected officials

are better able to effectively coordinate efforts to maintain and enhance the Town’s investment in

its infrastructure and public services.

The CIP includes detailed information on each planned capital expenditure the Town has projected

over a six-year period including the current fiscal year. The information contained in this document

will assist the Town Council in future decision-making responsibilities and will serve as a valuable

resource for the citizens of Normal, prospective residents and investors.

The CIP Process

The CIP is prepared annually by Town staff and presented to the Town Council for review,

comment and approval in December. Each September, Town staff members assemble individual

project detail sheets for all approved and proposed capital projects over a six-year period. For each

project, staff lists the approved project timeline, cost and proposed changes for Council

consideration. Each project sheet includes a narrative description, projected operating budget

impact and staff priority rating. The priority rating is intended to provide Council with further

indication of staff’s perspective on the importance and flexibility of the project. Projects that are

either complete or underway do not receive a project priority rating. The three staff priority ratings

are:

Priority 1 (Critical):

Project is critical or a top priority in the proposed year(s)

Priority 2 (Important):

Project should be completed with little deviation from the proposed year(s)

Priority 3 (Flexible):

Project could be moved to a different year with little or no consequence

Relationship of the CIP to the Town’s Operating and Capital Budget

The Community Investment Plan (CIP) is intended to serve as a planning tool and reference

document related to major municipal capital projects. The CIP report is intentionally prepared

several months prior to the Town’s operating and capital budget. The projects that are

recommended in the CIP report are incorporated into the budget document and formally approved

by the Town Council prior to April 1, the start of the new fiscal year.

Because the CIP report is prepared several months prior to the budget document, it is expected that

revenue and expense estimates may change from the time the CIP is prepared and the time the

budget is approved. New project priorities may arise as a result of unforeseen circumstances,

opportunities or infrastructure emergencies. As a result of these situations, the project costs and

timelines in the CIP report may need to be altered prior to adoption of the Town’s capital and

operating budget. Such changes will be presented to the Town Council for their consideration

when the annual budget is formally approved.

Description of the CIP Project Categories

For CIP reporting purposes only, each capital project is assigned one of five project categories.

These categories are unique to the CIP report and are not used in any other financial documents,

including the Town’s operating and capital budget. The project categories are simply for

organizational purposes and are intended to help the average reader comprehend and compare the

large number of capital projects included in the report. The four CIP project categories can be

summarized as follows:

Transportation Development:

This category encompasses all road, traffic signal, bridge and alley projects. Many of these projects

involve the renovation of existing infrastructure, while others involve new construction. Most

projects in this category are funded in the Capital, Roadway and Motor Fuel Tax funds that are

specified in the Town’s operating and capital budget.

Public Facilities Development:

The Public Facilities category includes all renovations and new construction of facilities that house

municipal government operations. Depending on the intended use of a facility, the project can be

funded from a number of budget funds, including Capital, Water, Sewer and Storm Water funds.

Parks and Open Space Development:

The Parks and Open Space category includes all projects that involve the development or

redevelopment of public parks and related amenities. Projects in this category are typically funded

in the Capital and Parkland Dedication budgets.

Utility Service Development:

This category includes all public utility projects from the Town’s Water, Sewer and Storm Water

utility funds. Each of these utility funds are designated as enterprise funds, meaning that fees

collected from customers are solely used to pay for development and operation of the specific

utility. For that reason, these projects are funded through the specific utility funds in the Town’s

operating and capital budget. (i.e. water development projects are funded out of the Water Fund,

sewer projects are funded out of the Sewer Fund, etc.)

Capital Asset:

The Capital Asset category includes the purchases in the vehicle and equipment reserve funds.

This category includes purchases in the Town’s General, Water and Sewer funds. The listing

presented in the CIP is a summary of the vehicles and equipment for each department.

How to Navigate the CIP Report

The FYE 2018 – 2023 Community Investment Plan (CIP) is presented in electronic format,

consistent with the Town’s goal to reduce paper consumption organization wide. The CIP is

accessible via the Town of Normal website at www.normal.org (Click on

Government/Finance/Community Investment Plan).

Once the CIP document is loaded, project data may be accessed by budget fund. Funds are shown

in the following order: Capital Fund, MFT Fund, Water Fund, Sewer Fund, Storm Water Fund,

Parkland Fund, CDBG Fund, Roadway Fund, General V& E Reserve Fund, Water V&E Reserve

Fund, Sewer V&E Fund, Hotel Dev & Fire Station Fund, and Fire Station Capital Inv Fund. It is

important to note that each of the budget funds have unique revenue support and limitations on

what type of projects can be funded. For example, Parks and Open Space projects are generally

funded out of the Capital or Parkland Dedication funds and cannot be funded out of the Motor Fuel

Tax fund or any of the utility funds.

Under each of the budget fund categories, there is an accompanying list of recommended projects

and estimated costs that fall in a six-year budget period beginning in 2017-18 and ending in 2022-

23. There are also projects that fall in the category of proposed projects that are not recommended

in the six-year budget period. These projects were identified by staff as potential capital projects,

however due to revenue constraints and other project priorities they were ultimately not

recommended and will be reevaluated in subsequent years.

For each project listed on the CIP, whether recommended or not, there is a related project

information sheet. More information on a particular project is available by clicking on its title. The

individual project sheets include a brief narrative on the project, previously approved funding

levels, pictures, the staff priority rating and more.

Each of the projects listed on the CIP is color coded by project priority rating. A blue highlight

indicates the project priority is one, rated by staff as critical and should take place in the timeframe

presented. A highlight of yellow indicates a priority rating of two, indicating staff believes the

project should be completed with little deviation from the proposed timeframe. A green highlight

indicates the project is flexible and could be pushed back or forward. A grey highlight indicates

the project has been completed or is currently underway.

Prior to the listing of projects on the budget fund pages, an available fund balance is noted on the

top of each sheet. This fund balance includes carryover funds not expensed in the previous year.

Directly below the beginning available fund balance is the listing of recommended projects and

corresponding estimated expenses in proposed years. Following the listing of proposed projects is

a total expenditures line with the sum of all expenses in each given year. Two other expense totals

appear on some budget summaries. These include interfund transfers and other expenses. Other

expenses include operating expenses not associated with a particular project and encumbered funds

that were carried over from the previous year to finish paying bills associated with projects from

http://www.normal.org/

previous years. Projected fund revenue for each fiscal year is shown above the ending fund balance.

The ending fund balance is determined by subtracting total expenditures, other expenses and

interfund transfers (if applicable) from the beginning fund balance, and adding total revenues. The

ending fund balance must remain positive in all given years and is carried over to the next fiscal

year to make up the beginning available fund balance at the top of the page.

The budget fund sheets are intended to provide the Town Council an opportunity to comment on

project priorities while looking at the bigger financial picture of a particular budget fund. The

Town Council can use these summary sheets to direct staff to change the years in which a project

is currently proposed or choose to fund projects that are not currently proposed in the CIP

timeframe. While many potential projects are listed at the bottom of the summary sheets, Council

may also request projects that are not listed in the CIP report.

Executive Summary

The CIP report contains 183 capital projects/equipment proposed to be completed in a six-year

period beginning in the current 2017-18 fiscal year and ending in fiscal year 2022-23. There are

dozens of additional projects that are listed in the report as not recommended due to revenue

constraints and other project priorities.

Capital projects recommended in this report total approximately $94.6 million in expenditures over

the six-year period. This report identifies approximately $109.9 million dollars of projects that are

not proposed due to revenue constraints and other project priorities. Town staff believes these

projects would add value to the community, and subsequently will reevaluate them on an annual

basis. The following chart shows the funded versus unfunded project expenses by CIP category.

lFYE 2018-2023 CIP Funded Vs. Unfunded Project

Expenses

Funded

Unfunded

The approximately $94.6 million in recommended expenditures can be viewed graphically by CIP

category. The pie chart below illustrates the total capital funding in the five CIP categories.

The pie chart illustrates that the Utility Service (38%), Transportation (25%) and Capital Assets

(21%) categories account for the largest percentage of capital expenditures. The Parks and Open

Space and Public Facilities categories account for a combined 16% of capital expenditures in this

report.

The expenditure projection in this CIP is approximately $4,252,000 lower when compared to the

previous year’s CIP report. The largest decrease is attributed to the Public Facilities category; this

decrease was caused by the substantial completion of the Fire Station Headquarters. There is an

increase in the Utility Service Category which is triggered by the new Sewer projects in each of

the out years.

The table below summarizes the basic expenditure differences between the current and previous

year CIP.

Over the years the project distribution mix may change slightly as funding objectives and priorities

change. The addition of one or more large projects could have a significant impact on the

percentages of expenditures by category. For this reason, it is important to consider the underlying

project data when comparing capital distributions by CIP category from year to year.
