SCHEDULED BUSINESS
1. Items for Omnibus Vote Consideration
• Payment of Invoices
• Ratification of Payments
Senior Planner Coleman advised there is nothing outstanding.
2. Peers, Ravinia, Sunset Woods Associations, & Housing Trust Fund
• Consideration of ERES Management Report and Financials
Ms. Leykin addressed future capital improvement needs. Peers & Ravinia have the same owner, the City
of Highland Park which Senior Planner Coleman confirmed. She explained Ravinia has two loans on the
property. There are 19 units, and there would never be enough cash due Ravinia’s inability to keep
reserves. Any monies in the account go toward regular monthly expenses. Grounds need to be
maintained, etc. The owners are responsible to fund repairs, improvements, etc.
Commissioner Beasley arrived at 6:36 p.m.
Ms. Leykin shared that roof replacements will be required in 2029. She summarized the HC needs to
decide where to deposit the cash.
Commissioner Rosen said it would be helpful if the HC is aware of/understands its options.
Chairperson Fernandez Sykes asked, and Ms. Leykin said the reserve is depleted annually.
Reimbursements need to happen. Rent revenue is enough to satisfy regular operations. For extenuating
circumstances like pumps, etc., monies need to be found. Auditors have advised what is to be requested.
She reiterated there is not enough of a cash surplus. A contribution has to be made to Ravinia Housing.
Commissioner Bernstein said an option is to borrow money from Peers and give it to Ravinia Housing. Ms.
Leykin advised there would be no repayment.
Senior Planner Coleman said Staff will figure this out. Monies shouldn’t be taken out of the Housing Trust
Fund/HTF, as that fund creates affordable housing. He identified this is why Staff requested Ms. Leykin to
provide a 5-year Capital Improvement Plan.
Commissioner Bernstein recalled Sunset Woods borrowed money in the past.
Commissioner Gonzalez asked that the options align with the law. Senior Planner Coleman will attempt
to provide options to the HC.
Commissioner Rosen appreciates this being raised, as there is a fundamental need to keep these buildings
running.
Ms. Leykin asked if the budget was approved. Senior Planner Coleman advised it is being reviewed.

Senior Planner Coleman explained there is often strife among residents at Sunset Woods. He stated the
City does not interfere with rental units, claims, etc.

encouraged to develop sites like this. He stated there are old buildings waiting to be purchased that would

to diversify the housing stock. With this site being developed, this could increase other development, foot

SCHEDULED BUSINESS
1. Items for Omnibus Vote Consideration
• Payment of Invoices
• Ratification of Payments
Planner Markle advised there is a $10 payment to the Secretary of State for Ravinia Housing.
2. Peers, Ravinia, Sunset Woods Associations, & Housing Trust Fund
• Consideration of ERES Management Report and Financials
Ms. Leykin stated budgets are finalized.
Peers
Ms. Leykin shared the HUD audit results were satisfactory.
Ravinia
Ms. Leykin reminded funds would not be replaced in reserves for roof replacement.
There is one vacant unit which is being prepared.
Commissioner Bernstein said she never saw a HUD repayment plan. Ms. Leykin advised HUD was paying
more of a subsidy portion.
Commissioner Shapiro Kopin asked about two evictions. Ms. Leykin said an agreement was submitted to
pay in full by a certain date. That date passed, so that unit is available. For the other tenant/unit, there
will be no bad debt.
• Sunset Woods Financials
Mr. William Brown, Board Member, spoke on behalf of and read the Treasurer’s comments, and copies
were distributed (unique hybrid; 14 rentals, 46 owner-occupied units, excellently maintained). They
appeal regarding insurance costs which increased 134%. As it was stated 14 units are affordable, they
became ineligible. The alleged reason for the increase was due to 14 units being owned by the City of
Highland Park. Owners are having to fund this which creates risk. The deductible is $25,000 per claim.
Mr. Brown said the Sunset Woods Association Board is requesting that the City of Highland Park pay its
fair share. Reimbursements were shared ($12,811 for 2025). He noted a solution is requested for the
future, and the Board wishes to move forward with the City of Highland Park.

MINUTES OF A REGULAR MEETING OF
HOUSING COMMISSION
OF THE CITY OF HIGHLAND PARK, ILLINOIS
Planner Markle noted the Grant Agreement, when presented to City Council, didn’t specify square footage
of units (the Grant Agreement before the HC specifies 365 square feet). They advised the HC should
consider if this floor area is adequate. This consideration was delegated to the HC by City Council.
Planner Markle advised the HC should also consider or indicate if specific unit numbers and locations
should be tied to the grant. Planner Markle said this is not required per code, as this is not an inclusionary
housing review.
Commissioner Shapiro Kopin asked if there is information on square footage of affordable units and
market-rate units. Ms. Williams with CCHI said the sizes are all the same. Planner Markle provided a unit
matrix with all unit types and sizes.
Commissioner Bernstein asked how the units are dispersed. Ms. Williams replied there is one on the first
floor and two on the second floor, etc.
Commissioner Shapiro Kopin asked how it is guaranteed that affordable units would remain in perpetuity.
Ms. Williams responded as it is a coop, the owner has a clause in all documents as well as the grant
agreement; same modification and subsidy; goes with the unit.
Planner Markle said Staff spoke with Corporation Counsel, and they are comfortable with the HC signing
the document as is or with an amendment. The Applicant would submit updated Grant Agreement
exhibits if the HC required an amendment. Planner Markle restated City Council has not seen the unit
sizes and this consideration has been delegated to the HC.
Ms. Williams stated, if someone selected another unit, they would want them to have that opportunity;
may not want to limit it further.
Commissioner Rosen is in favor of an assurance that these affordable units would be in perpetuity. Planner
Markle said Corporation Counsel advised perpetuity is not in jeopardy in any way.
Commissioner Farris said she is glad Corporation Counsel has no issues.
Commissioner Bernstein asked if:
• renovations would begin this month. Ms. Williams said the roof has been replaced. Interiors will
be renovated in October, 2025.
• HODC has obtained public support for more units. Ms. Williams said yes, from Lake County.
Commissioner Rosen moved to approve the Grant Agreement, and that the floor area is acceptable.
Commissioner Shapiro Kopin seconded the motion.

Accounts Receivable Update
September 2025
Frank B. Peers (68 units)
Tenant A/R increased from $160.15 at the end of August to $469.97 at the end of September.
Subsidy A/R decreased from $3,324.00 at the end of August to $173.00 at the end of September.
Tenant delinquency includes:
Current delinquency: $181 (7 tenants)
One tenant is on payment plan.
Ravinia Housing (17 units)
Tenant A/R decreased from $6,990.80 at the end of August to $5,265.81 at the end of September.
Subsidy A/R increased from $86.00 at the end of August to $917.00 at the end of September.
Tenant delinquency includes:
Current delinquency: $675 (7 tenants)
30-day delinquency: $273 (2 tenants)
60-day delinquency: $70 (2 tenants)
90+ days delinquency: $175 (1 tenant)
2 tenants have HUD repayment plans
**Note**
These charges fluctuate from month to month. If a resident pays rent late or not at all, it
causes the Tenant A/R to increase the following month.
With regard to the subsidy A/R, we request the rent from HUD, 1 month in advance. For
Example: On July 1st, we send our HAP/Voucher subsidy request to HUD, for the month of
June. Because of this, activities like move-ins, move-outs or certifications, will affect the
subsidy A/R balance; causing it to increase or decrease. Tenants that have entered into
repayment agreements would create A/R balances for either the tenant or subsidy ledgers as
well, as the property is required to pay back the incorrect amount received by HUD due to the
error, and then collect that amount directly from the resident as part of their repayment
agreement.

Memorandum
Date: October 31, 2025
To: Housing Commission
From: Zubin Coleman, Senior Planner
Subject: Peers & Ravinia 5-Year Capital Improvement Plan
Background
Staff reached out to Irina Leykin of ERES to request updated CIP’s for the Peers and Ravinia housing
properties. The goal of receiving the CIP’s was to identify what projects are necessary for repair sooner
rather than later. And it is equally important to know what Evergreen has forecasted as projects that can
wait to be addressed in the coming years. Obtaining updated CIP’s for Peers & Ravinia will help Staff’s
recommendation to Housing Commission on how funds should be addressed. Internal discussions are
still taking place at this time but direction on how the funds could be managed will follow in the coming
months.
CIP Observations
The biggest repair ERES has estimated is a $155,000 roofing repair to take place in 2027. ERES has
already recommended to not take any further funds from its replacement reserves to cover the 2027
roofing costs. The Peers 2026-2030 CIP shows its pending reserve balance in red anytime the balance
falls below the $102,000 minimum. The reserve balance will not be as full for multiple years following
the roofing repair.
After the 2027 roofing repair, it likely won’t rise above the minimum until 2030. There is also a HVAC
repair estimated at $15,000 in 2027. Other projects such as parking lot resealing & striping and unit
appliances will occur in 2028 and beyond. The
The biggest Ravinia expense is also a $70,500 roofing repair in 2029. That repair would likely come from
the associations reserve account but would require cash call without offsetting contributions from the
operating account. HVAC, water heaters, appliances and unit flooring will inhibit recurring annual costs
from 2026-2030. However, the Ravinia pending reserve balance should never fall below the $25,500
minimum.
Recommendation
Staff recommends reviewing the 5-yeat Capital Improvement Plans (CIP) provided by Evergreen Real
Estate Services (ERES) for the Ravinia and Peers housing properties, and having a preliminary discussion
of the estimated repairs. No vote or action is needed at this time, further analysis will be provided.

Highland Park Housing Commission
Attn: Zubin Coleman
1150 Half Day Road
Highland Park, IL 60035
Dear Zubin,
This letter serves as our quarterly report with quarterly drawdown request ($23,546.25)
for quarter 3 covering the period July 1, 2025 through September 30, 2025, per our 2025
operating grant agreement.
Community Land Trust Program
- CPAH (via AHC) completed approximately 70% of the rehabilitation of the 3bd/2bth
single family home at 1500 Mccraren Road. Rehab work includes a new kitchen,
baths, floors, mechanicals, plumbing, electric, windows, driveway, roof, and
landscaping improvements. Rehab is scheduled to be completed in Q4. See
attached photos.
- CPAH (via AHC) completed approximately 90% of the rehabilitation of the 3bd/2bth
single family home at 1342 Ferndale. Rehab work includes remediating water
damage, refinishing the basement, roof, windows, driveway, removing an old oil
tank, bathrooms, kitchen updates, and more. Rehab is scheduled to be completed
in early November. See attached photos.
- CPAH (via AHC) completed rehabilitation of the 3bd/1.5bth single family home at
661 Homewood. Rehab work included installation of a drain tile system to
waterproof the basement, converting the home from 2-bedroom to 3-bedroom, new
windows, and various other repairs. The home is under contract to sell to a local
5-person household in November. Photos are attached. We would be happy to
arrange a time for Housing Commissioners to see the home, if desired.
- CPAH closed on financing with IHDA and began construction of the 8-unit
townhome development at 937 Deerfield Road. The existing dilapidated structures
were used by the Fire Department for training purposes for 4-5 days before being
demolished and removed. CPAH completed additional site work and the
development, named Betsy Lassar Place, held an official groundbreaking
ceremony on October 30th. The units are scheduled for completion in Q4 next year.
Photos attached.

Inclusionary Housing
CPAH had 784 households on the Highland Park Inclusionary Housing rental waitlist as
of September 30, 2025. We received 121 rental waitlist applications from July through
September, of which 69 were placed on the waitlist and 52 were denied because they
lacked sufficient income. As of September 30th, there were no vacancies (100%
occupied). The final for-sale inclusionary unit at 1950 Sheridan closed in September. The
buyer is a long-time Highland Park resident and veteran who had been living with his
parents because he could not afford a place of his own. He works at a grocery store in
the area and makes deliveries to supplement his income. He is thrilled to have this
opportunity to have a home of his own.
CPAH continues to conduct annual income recertifications for the existing 52 inclusionary
rental units (17 Albion, 4 Laurel Courts, 5 Ravinia Crossing, 11 McGovern, 3 Bloom, 2 St.
Johns, 10 Albion II), assist property managers with ongoing questions related to the
inclusionary units and tenants, and market to those who might be interested in applying
to be on the waitlist for upcoming affordable housing opportunities in Highland Park.
General Affordable Housing Work
In addition to the specific CLT and inclusionary housing work described above, CPAH
continued to provide a range of other housing services including housing counseling,
down payment assistance, home repair and accessibility programs, foreclosure
prevention, property management services, grant writing to leverage Housing Trust Fund
dollars, and a range of post-purchase stewardship for homeowners and tenants including
home maintenance classes, assistance with refinances, property tax assessments,
financial education, matched savings program, revolving loan fund, and various other
supports to help resident secure long-term housing stability.
The attached pages provide a summary of indirect expenses incurred on Highland Park
activity during the third quarter of 2025.
We sincerely appreciate all the support and leadership provided by the Housing
Commission which has made the City of Highland Park a nationally recognized model
and leader throughout the region.
Please don’t hesitate to contact me at 847-263-7478 ext 22 or ranthony@cpahousing.org
with any questions.
Sincerely,
Rob Anthony
President

Good afternoon, Mr. Brown,
City Manager Ghida Neukirch forwarded me your August 12th, 2025 email that expressed
concern about an insurance carrier allegedly claiming that the publicly-owned units within
the Sunset Woods building are affecting the building’s insurance rate. City Staff also shared
the October 16th, 2025 email that you sent to Housing Commissioner Shapiro Kopin
reiterating similar claims made in the August 12th email.
It is important to note that all units within the Sunset Woods building have been both age
(62+) and income (affordable) restricted since development in 2002. And that 14 units are
publicly-owned (by the Sunset Woods Association, which is a subsidiary of the City’s
Housing Commission) is not new, either. The 14 units have been owned by the Association
since development.
The City is aware from its own experience that insurance rates in the area have indeed
increased due to a number of factors within the insurance industry, particularly for
buildings with age-restricted status. This is not unique to Sunset Woods, nor unique to
publicly-owned units. In other words, the City believes that any increase in insurance rates
for Sunset Woods is due to overall industry trends, and not to the mere existence of the 14
units. Again, the nature of ownership and age and income restrictions affecting the overall
property is the same now as it has been for over two decades. To that end, neither the City,
the Housing Commission, nor the Sunset Woods Association is responsible for the alleged
increase.
All of that said, the Sunset Woods Association is responsible for paying its share of the
insurance cost, in its capacity as owner of the 14 units, through assessed HOA fees. And, of
course, as an owner of units in the building, the Association welcomes the opportunity to
work with the Sunset Woods Board and its management company to manage and reduce
insurance costs to the extent possible. The City can refer the Sunset Woods Condominium
Board the insurance brokers that the Housing Commission uses for its annual insurance
renewals.
Sincerely,
Charmain Later

back together that the place we had
to move my mother from (she was the 2nd person to
move into SWC in 2002 as a renter).
She cried when she had to move to a nursing home
after a few years. She was always
grateful for SWC and helped the Treasurer keeping the
books.
As you know my credentials span much further than
my 20 year membership at the CBOT
Chief Building HVAC Engineer Honeywell,
Maintenance Supervisor Lake Forest Academy
I retired from City of Evanston Water Dept a Class A
IEPA Water. Today because I bore easily
I work part time from the Spring-Fall at the Botanic
Garden as a Model RR Engineer
and in the Winter as Manager/Zamboni operator of the
Weinberg Glencoe Ice Rink.
In my 20's I lived in the former HP Historical Society
Museum as caretaker and served on the Board
before Bob Robinson passed away in 86. I resigned
from the board as I saw the new people
wanted to go after Bobs legacy....He was a Family
Friend and business partner of my father
The Hawkins Desk in the Hallway at City Hall was
given to the Society in 67.
My picture standing next to the desk was on the cover
of the HP News....I lived with the desk in the museum
where I resided from 1975-86.....It was nice to see
again the other night.
Page 59 of 67
So get to the point Bill
Its just I feel the need to keep establishing my
credentials for some reason. Sorry!
Result from attacks by some.....
As a new member of the board here at SWC my first
year has been enlightening .
I am trying to right our financial ship in doing so it
was I who discovered the inequity regarding the
Building Insurance.......
Everyone else just accepted the prior years massive
144% insurance cost While others without
Affordable Renters went up under 50%.........and didn't
do discovery
as to why........sadly our former Management company
Berkson&Sons never did either.
Perhaps they were so busy figuring out how to sell his
company that our needs were neglected.
The salient points that I spoke of for our Treasurer
were discovered by me. I had to explain them
several times to the rest of the board AND our
inherited Building Manager from Berkson, now with
Westward 360.
1. According to our former Ins. Agent in Houston the
rise was solely because of the 14 Rentals of Public
Housing
2. For this year we found slightly less expensive
insurance only it has a $25K deductible PER
OCCURRENCE
( this has disaster written all over it.....as a former
Page 60 of 67
trader we all know that when you are exposed, disaster
is Looming)
WE DO NOT BLAME the CoHP nor our Renters for
this.......
However once the owners find out about the fact that
we are funding the excessive cost of insurance because
of the renters
well you can only imagine the animosity.
2 years ago we got hit with a Quadruple
whammy........$40k 2 new boilers, $12k Re Carding
the operations of our elevators
A massive project for the roof and subsequent leaks in
5 apartments that caused a special assessment, and
then an extra
$40k in building insurance..........our reserve fund was
destroyed. Pocket books of the owners only and
nerves are frayed.
We are seeking restitution for the extra insurance costs
for the past 2 years over what an owners only building
would incur
AND future assistance in securing insurance as you do
for Peers and Walnut.
Working with the CoHP Housing Commission for our
Hybrid building of owners and renters can be
maintained if this is worked out.
The bottom line is the paradigm for sharing insurance
costs has altered and is need or correction, We need to
work with CoHP.
Page 61 of 67
Page 62 of 67
Page 63 of 67
This has the potential to possibly bankrupt the owners of SWC.
The 46 Owners are being Charged an excessive amount for Insurance
because of our 14 CoHP Rentals
We only recently discovered the cause from last year's increase.
(Please consult the CoHP Affordable Housing web site for a description of Sunset Woods if needed)
In 2024 our board of managers was suddenly confronted with an August
2024 increase of 144% in Condominium Insurance.
In digging around by diligence and fear of loss of our homes we have found
other Condominiums in the area
(not affiliated with CoHP Housing Commission) only had a raise of
roughly 50% in that year.
Our 2023 Year we budgeted for roughly a $27,000 and expected increases
for the year, (our deductible was $5000)
SWC last year was alerted to an increased $67,000 bill for Insurance with
the David group from Houston TX on the very last day of coverage by
Berkson and Sons (our former Management Company)
an unsuspected larger increase than ever believed possible by $40000,
certainly almost 90% higher than surrounding condominium's.
(we had used the David Agency via Berkson's oversight for many years
prior)
Our board ONLY recently found out the reason as we were finally given an
explanation when the David Ins group
gave us a quote for 2026 of $74,000 via our new Management company
Westward 360.
With the below enclosed email from the David Agency.

Subject: Sunset Woods Condo Association 8/5/25
Good afternoon Debbie. Per our conversation last week, the reasoning
for the steep increase in the insurance costs for Sunset Woods last
year, was the Affordable Housing units in the building. We have been
under the impression that the building consisted of 60 residential
condos for individuals 62 and older.Last year Greater New
York discovered websites listing 14 of the units are
Page 64 of 67
actually owned by the City of Highland Park and
used as Affordable Housing units. Unfortunately,
this fact made the building ineligible for their
insurance program and nonrenewed the account for
8/5/24.
Having the age restriction on the building significantly limits the
insurance companies that are willing to quote the insurance. Having
this coupled with also having affordable housing units in the building,
drops our options down to almost no options in the standard market. If
the building was older, we would definitely only have quote options
from the Excess and Surplus insurance markets. Because the building
is still on the newer side, sprinklered and well maintained, we were
able to get the quote from Philadelphia Insurance last year. They
originally declined this, but I was able to get them to offer a quote.
Unfortunately, this renewal has not been any easier. Building limit
requirements continue to increase to keep up with inflation on
Building materials. Rates continue to increase due to increases in
claims from hail storms, tornadoes, hail storms, etc. I wish I had better
news to report. I understand that the board contacted another
insurance agent to try to get quotes because they are upset about the
pricing increase. I understand their frustrations. While I would hate to
lose your business after 20 years working on this account, I really
hope the agent has a silver bullet to get you a great quote. My renewal
increase is coming in at 14%
I have attached a renewal proposal which includes the renewal
comparison and detailed quote for each coverage. Please review and
let me know if you have any questions or want to see any changes to
this. I’m sorry I don’t have better news on this.
Best Regards,
Priscilla

along with normal repairs and on going maintenance.
Our community is 1 disaster away from far worse circumstances.
46 Owners cannot afford to underwrite 14 CoHP owned rentals.
