Summary: The Fiscal Year 2019 budget includes $400,000 in the Water and Sewer Fund for the Thorndale lift station replacement with an additional funding of $250,000 available in the Water & Sewer Fund from the deferment of Route 12 water main improvements.

Agreement with Chicagoland Paving for Parking Lot Rebuild at Paulus Park in the Amount Not-to-Exceed $1,007,048.30
Summary: The Fiscal Year 2019 budget includes $679,000 in the Capital Projects Fund and $243,138 from the Special Recreation Association for parking lot rehabilitation with ADA improvements at Paulus Park, Zurites Park, and the bird observatory on Lions Drive. However, due to engineering pavement testing at Paulus, it is determined that a more aggressive parking lot rehabilitation project is needed that includes stormwater drainage improvements.
With a significant increase in costs related to the Paulus parking lot, Staff is recommending rehabilitation of the Zurites Park lot and the bird observatory walking path be deferred until a future budget year in order to allocate more resources to Paulus. This project includes 13,000 square yards of asphalt pavement parking lot, access drives, and all asphalt walking paths inside Paulus Park, as well as stormwater drainage and grading improvements.
A competitive bid opening on July 17, 2019 resulted in three bids, with the lowest responsible bid received from Chicagoland Paving of Lake Zurich.

Resolution for Open Space and Land Acquisition Development Grant Program Authorization for Paulus Park Improvements with $400,000 Matching Commitment and Presentation from Hitchcock Design Group (Trustee Weider)
Summary: The Village has contracted with Hitchcock Design Group to redesign plans for Paulus Park improvements and to submit an application with the Illinois Department of National Resources for OSLAD grant funding. OSLAD helps communities acquire open space and improve recreational assets. If approved by the State, this year’s application would require a dollar-for-dollar matching financial commitment from the Village of at least $400,000, which would be funded through next year’s 2020 budget.
This year’s OSLAD application will focus on the extension of trails to the north side of Paulus Park, installation of a fishing pier, shoreline restoration on the south side of Paulus Park, a non-motorized boat launch, replacement of the existing stage, additional picnic shelters with storage, interactive play features for children, as well as landscaping, electrical upgrades, and remediation of stormwater drainage issues in the park.
Steve Konters from Hitchcock Design Group will present an overview of the proposed park improvements and the grant application process.
Recommended Action: A motion to approve a Resolution for the Open Space and Land Acquisition Development Grant Program for Paulus Park Improvements with $400,000 Matching Commitment.

Ordinance Approving a Special Use Permit for Performance Space for Outdoor Live Entertainment at Sunset Pavilion at Breezewald Park, 125 North Old Rand Road (Assign Ord. #2019-08-320) (Trustee Beaudoin)
Summary: The operator of Sunset Pavilion at 125 North Old Rand Road is seeking a Special Use Permit to allow for outdoor live entertainment, specifically music, scheduled on certain days of the month during hours of operation of the beer garden at the pavilion. This request would be restricted by the Village’s established noise regulations, which prohibits the use of amplifiers and loudspeakers on Sunday’s or between the hours of 8:00 pm and 9:00 am any other day of the week.
Sunset Pavilion has confirmed its intention is to add to the ambiance of the environment and experience that they are currently offering to guests and not bring in loud music that would disrupt the surrounding neighborhood. The outdoor live entertainment would be limited to no more than two amplifiers with a maximum of two performers at any given time.The Planning and Zoning Commission held a public hearing on July 17, 2019 to consider this request and voted 4-0 in favor of recommending approval of the Special Use Permit to allow for the outdoor live entertainment.
Recommended Action: A motion to approved Ordinance #2019-08-320 Approving a Special Use Permit for Performance Space for Outdoor Live Entertainment at Sunset Pavilion at Breezewald Park, 125 North Old Rand Road.

Courtesy Update on Proposed Residential Subdivision by Taylor Morrison at the Hummel Property on the Southside of Honey Lake Road (Trustee Beaudoin)
Summary: Taylor Morrison of Illinois is proposing development of a portion of the 37-acre property on the south side of Honey Lake Road with a new residential subdivision to be known as Pine Ridge. This courtesy review is intended to serve as an update on the developer’s plans for the property at 24909 West Signal Hill Road currently located in unincorporated Lake County.
In November 2018, Taylor Morrison first approached the Village with the intention of a new 40-lot single-family residential subdivision. Based on the implications of the 40-lot development on stormwater management and wetlands on properties surrounding this property, the Village advised Taylor Morrison that it could not recommend approval of that proposed development, should they decide to proceed with their petition.
Taylor Morrison is now proposing a redesigned plan to develop the northerly 5 acres of the property. The developer has submitted a revised concept to construct 22 duplex homes on 11-multiple-family lots. This proposal has a greatly reduced footprint that essentially proposes residential development only along the south side of Honey Lake Road and no longer requires significant infrastructure upgrades, thereby minimizing the impacts on the property’s wetlands or its storm water management functions.
Recommended Action: The developer and staff seek to understand the Village Board’s preferences towards the proposed annexation of the property to Lake Zurich and the revised configuration of the development.

Discussion on the Potential of Recreational Cannabis Businesses (Mayor Poynton)
Summary: On June 25, 2019, Governor Pritzker signed into law the Cannabis Regulation and Tax Act, making Illinois the 11th state in the nation to legalize recreational cannabis sale and use for adults 21 and older effective January 1, 2020. The State of Illinois is allowing municipalities to decide whether to prohibit recreational cannabis businesses from locating in their communities, or to allow these type of uses subject to local zoning restrictions.
In addition to granting or restricting the authority of adult-use recreational dispensaries, municipalities have the option of authorizing on-site consumption of cannabis, as well as the co-location of craft growers, infusers, and cultivation centers.
There are a number of zoning regulations Lake Zurich could impose on recreational dispensaries, such as restricting the zoning districts they may operate in, restricting the hours of operation, regulating the proximity to other land uses, or imposing a cap on the number of recreational dispensaries allowed. The State also allows the application of an extra 3% local sales tax, which could generate a dedicated revenue source for parks, storm water improvements or other service and infrastructure needs.
Recommended Action: This is only an initial discussion on the future of recreational cannabis businesses in Lake Zurich and no final decisions will be made at this time. Village staff will eventually need direction from the Board on whether to prepare ordinances prohibiting recreational dispensaries, amending the zoning code to accommodate them, or establishing other parameters for these uses.
