MOTION: Trustee Piwko SECOND: Trustee Westberg AYES: Trustees: Goldman, Hoeft, Kanakaris, Leopold, Piwko and Westberg NAYS: None ABSENT: None The motion carried: 6-0-0 i) Consideration – An Ordinance Approving a Minor Amendment to the Final Planned Unit Development for Pod 5 of the Talamore Subdivision for New-Single Family Homes and Reduction in Certain Transition Fees Director of Development Services Charles Nordman reviewed a Power Point presentation and reported that on February 9, 2006, the Village Board adopted Ordinance (O)2006-02.18 approving the Final Plat of Subdivision and Final Planned Unit Development (“PUD”) for Lennar, Talamore Pod 5. Pod 5 includes 102 single-family cluster home lots and is bounded by Talamore Boulevard to the south and Founders Field Boulevard to the west. The 2006 ordinance approved four (4) single-family product types for Pod 5 that ranged from 1,950 – 2,419 square feet in size. When approved in 2006, Pod 5 was designed as “maintenance free” with homes that were age-targeted toward professionals and empty nesters; however, it was not an age-restricted community. As part of the approved Preliminary and Final Planned Unit Development, the petitioner was granted variances from the Huntley Zoning Ordinance lot standard and bulk regulations, which are reflected on the recorded Final Plat of Subdivision for Pod 5. The public improvements and utilities have been constructed within Pod 5 based on the lot configuration of the approved Final Plat of Subdivision. The petitioner is not proposing any changes to the recorded Final Plat of Subdivision as part of the requested minor amendment for the new home product line. The approved Final Plat of Subdivision for Pod 5 was designed to locate the homes in close proximity to one another on private courts thus allowing more common open space throughout the neighborhood. The intention was to target professionals and empty nesters that may want a single-family home, but do not desire a large yard and the maintenance that goes along with it. The following setbacks were approved as part of the Preliminary and Final Planned Unit Development for Pod 5. No new zoning variations are requested. Approved Setbacks: • Minimum front setback is approved at 10 feet • Minimum rear setback is approved at 15 feet • Total minimum side yard setback is approved at 14 feet • Minimum side yard setback is approved at 5 feet • Minimum side yard abutting a street is approved 10 feet • Maximum building height is approved at 35 feet 10 December 20, 2018 Village Board Meeting • Minimum setback between rear building lines is approved at 50 feet CalAtlantic Group, Inc., now an affiliate of Lennar Corporation, is the successor owner of the 102 lots in Pod 5. CalAtlantic/Lennar is requesting approval of the Andaré product line which was previously built in Pod 2. The Andaré product line includes seven (7) models that range in size from 1,224 – 1,880 square feet with each model having six (6) elevations. Lennar has stated they may also offer the four (4) single-family products that were approved in 2006 at a later date; however, they believe it is unlikely the product can be offered at a price point that is attractive to the marketplace. Similar to Pod 2, Pod 5 is designed to be “maintenance free” to the extent that the association will provide maintenance of common area landscaping, and snow removal and mowing of grass on private lots. Maintenance of the home itself, including the exterior foundation plantings and shrubs on the lot and the maintenance or replacement of the driveway will be the responsibility of the homeowner (this is similar to Pod 2). The installation of sheds, fences, playsets, trampolines, and swimming pools will not be allowed on the individual lots. Pod 5 will not be age-restricted, which is consistent with the original approval in 2006 (Pod 2 is age-restricted in accordance with the Housing for Older Persons exemption under the Fair Housing Amendments Act of 1988). The following table provides a further summary of the models: PREVIOUSLY TYPE SQUARE FEET APPROVED MODELS 501 2 Story 2,318 502 2 Story 2,419 503 2 Story 2,358 504 1 Story 1,950 PROPOSED MODELS TYPE SQUARE FEET Bennett 1 Story 1,224 Florence 1 Story 1,342 Napa 1 Story 1,428 Bennett II (side load 1 Story 1,579 garage) Rutherford 1 Story 1,649 Siena 1 Story 1,792 Sonoma 1 Story 1,880 Ordinance (O)2006-02.18 also required all homes in Pod 5 to provide specific architectural elements as listed below. The proposed models meet these requirements with exception to the requirement for a rear gable. • Minimum foundation plantings packages for all front and corner side yards • All front elevations shall include a brick/masonry element • All garage doors require windows and at least 3 different garage designs are required for each product line • Window grills on all front elevations 11 December 20, 2018 Village Board Meeting • The following architectural upgrades are standard for all side and rear elevations for the detached single-family homes  5/4” window surrounds  5/4” frieze boards  Window grills are standard (as an option, a homeowner may opt out of window grills on non-corner/non-rear facing road lots)  Shutters around windows  At least one rear gable  Different color architectural shingles  Trim will carry over from the front elevation  All corner lots will have a minimum of two first floor windows along the corner side elevation CalAtlantic/Lennar has also requested that condition #4 of Ordinance (O)2006-02.18 be revised. Condition #4 states “the petitioner is required to install 1½” water service, and to meet residential sprinkler requirements according to specifications of the Huntley Fire Protection District.” At the time Pod 5 was approved there was a requirement for fire sprinkler systems in single-family detached homes; however, in 2007 the Village Board of Trustees approved Ordinance (O)2007-09.41, which eliminated this requirement. The petitioner is requesting the condition be revised to prevent any confusion about whether a fire sprinkler system is required. CalAtlantic/Lennar will continue to offer a fire sprinkler system as an option to all buyers and will be required to provide an acknowledgement form along with the building permit indicating whether a buyer has chosen or declined the option. Financial Impact The following impact/transition fee schedule is proposed: 3 Bedroom House Current Proposed Huntley Fire Protection District – Impact $685 $685 and Transition Library – Impact and Transition $340 $340 District 158 – Impact and Transition $6,758 $3,758 Municipal Complex Fee $1,000 $0 Village - Transition $1,000 $0 Township - Impact $100 $100 TOTAL $9,883 $4,883 Similar requests to eliminate transition fees were considered and approved by the Village Board for the remaining single-family lots in Pod 4 and the remaining townhome units in Pod 3. Transition fees were originally implemented at a time when the Village, school district, and other taxing bodies were experiencing extraordinary growth. The transition fees were needed to help fund operations during the period between the time when a new home was occupied and generating students and residents to the time when the full amount of property tax revenue was actually received by the taxing bodies. This period could take up to 18 months. With the changes that have occurred in the housing market over the last decade, the Village, school district, and other taxing bodies have been in a position to absorb new residents and students without experiencing a significant impact on operations. The Village Board 12 December 20, 2018 Village Board Meeting reviewed elimination of transition fees at the April 26, 2018 Village Board meeting and provided policy direction consistent with the proposed fee schedule. As noted with the Pod 3 and Pod 4 requests, the Village Manager presented the proposed elimination of the school transition fee at the May 3, 2018, School Board meeting, and has also presented similar information to representatives of the other taxing districts. Strategic Plan Priority The 2016-2020 Strategic Plan identifies “Promote New Business Development, Retention, and Expansion” as a Strategic Priority, “Diversify Residential Development Options” as a goal, and “Pursue new residential development” as an objective. Director Nordman reported that Rick Murphy from Lennar/Cal Atlantic was in attendance to answer questions. Mayor Sass asked if the Village Board had any comments or questions. Trustee Westberg asked if the cul-de-sacs would be maintained by the Home Owners Association (HOA); Village Manager Johnson reported that the HOA is responsible for maintaining everything including the cul-de-sacs. Kalsow Lane and Keating Drive are public streets and will be maintained by the Village. Trustee Goldman asked if fire sprinklers are being offered as an option. Mr. Murphy reported that fire sprinklers are not required but will be offered as an option. Village Manager Johnson reported that fire suppression is offered as an option in all new residential development. There were no other comments or questions. A MOTION was made to approve an Ordinance Approving a Minor Amendment to the Final Planned Unit Development for Pod 5 of the Talamore Subdivision for New Single-Family Homes and Reduction in Certain Transition Fees. MOTION: Trustee Kanakaris SECOND: Trustee Hoeft AYES: Trustees: Goldman, Hoeft, Kanakaris, Leopold, Piwko and Westberg NAYS: None ABSENT: None The motion carried: 6-0-0 j) Discussion - Conceptual Review of a Proposed Site Plan and Building Elevations for a Proposed Brewery/Restaurant at 13980 Automall Drive and Authorization to Negotiate a Business Development Agreement Director of Development Services Charles Nordman reviewed a Power Point presentation and reported that More Brewing Company is proposing to operate a production brewery with a taproom/brew pub restaurant within the former Chevrolet Dealership at 13980 Automall Drive, currently owned by Rush International. More Brewing is proposing to lease the existing 25,302 square feet building and renovate 13 December 20, 2018 Village Board Meeting it to include 11,302 square feet dedicated for the production of beer and 14,000 square feet for a taproom/brew pub restaurant. The tap room/brew pub, which will be located in the former dealership showroom, will include a full kitchen, outdoor patio and special events area for private dining. The production side will be located in the area previously occupied by the service department and will include a brewhouse, fermentation and conditioning vessels and packaging line. There will also be a barrel room where beer will be aged in whiskey barrels prior to packaging. More Brewing currently operates a brewery/brewpub restaurant in Villa Park, Illinois. The Huntley location will be their second production facility and will allow More to increase production and distribution of their beer that cannot currently be handled by their Villa Park location. On December 21, 2017, the Village Board approved Ordinance (O) 2107-12.82 Approving an Amendment to the Village of Huntley Comprehensive Plan for the I-90/IL 47 Gateway Plan. The dealership location is included in the area addressed by the Gateway Plan, which identifies the Automall area as an opportunity site for mixed commercial development that serves as a regional draw. The plan expands the uses appropriate for this location and includes restaurants. More’s repurposing of the former dealership would be a first step in implementing the new vision for this area as identified in the Gateway Plan. Staff Analysis Site Plan The existing site plan will undergo only minor modifications to accommodate More Brewing. These changes include resurfacing the parking lot and the addition of new walkway striping and pavers within the parking lot at the front of the building. The parking lot at the rear of the building would be reconfigured for delivery vehicles. Two additional trash enclosures would be constructed adjacent to the rear of the building to accommodate used materials from the brewing process and the existing trash enclosure at the southeast corner of the property would be removed and reconstructed to accommodate the reconfiguration of the parking lot at the rear of the building. Grain silos/tanks would also be located along the rear (south) elevation of the building. It is anticipated that one, possibly two, tanks would be installed initially and an additional two may be installed in the future (the petitioner will provide an illustration of the tanks at the meeting). The petitioner will also replace the parking lot lighting with new LED fixtures and install new landscaping to replace plant materials that are either dead or in poor condition. The full extent of the landscape replaced will not be known until the petitioner is able to survey the site’s landscaping in the spring. The subject site also includes the open space to the south of the former dealership. The petitioner proposes to utilize the open space for three to four special events per year and also overflow parking for the events. Details pertaining to the special events would be provided annually with the renewal of the liquor license. 14 December 20, 2018 Village Board Meeting Parking Proposed parking would be accommodated within the existing parking lot. The lot will require some modifications to the striping layout to accommodate customer parking since the lot was previously used for the display of automobiles for the car dealership (these modifications are not reflected on the site plan provided with this report). The following table provides a summary of the required parking for the brewery: Required Parking REQUIRED RATIO SQUARE FOOTAGE REQUIRED PRODUCTION 2.0 / 1,000 SQ. FT. 11,302 23 RESTAURANT (TAPROOM/BREW PUB/PATIO) 1 SPACE / 3 SEATS 214 SEATS 72 TOTAL REQUIRED 95 TOTAL PROVIDED 108 Additional special event/overflow parking would be provided within the open space to the south of the building. It is estimated that an additional 270 vehicles could be accommodated within the open space. A portion of this open space was previously used by the former dealership for additional parking. A 100' by 280' (28,000 square feet) temporary gravel parking lot was approved by (Ordinance (O)2004- 10.66) and constructed by the dealership in 2004, however, grass has since grown through the gravel. Building Elevations The proposed modifications to the existing building elevations include the installation of decorative wood accent panels across the front of the building and repainting the entire building and metal standing seam screen wall. The proposed color scheme is represented on the rendering that is provided as an exhibit. Proposed building wall signage will include the More Brewing logo, name, and text stating “taproom” on the front (north) elevation of the building and the brewery name on the west elevation, facing Route 47. Required Approvals The subject site is zoned C-2 Regional Retail, which does not currently allow a microbrewery as a permitted or special use. Therefore, the petitioner’s formal development application will be requesting a text amendment to the Zoning Ordinance to allow a microbrewery as a Special Use in the C-2 zoning district. The following review and approvals are required from the Plan Commission and Village Board for the proposed use: 1. A Text Amendment to the Zoning Ordinance to add Microbrewery as a Special Use in the C-2 Regional Retail zoning district. A definition for Microbrewery will also be added to the Zoning Ordinance. 2. A Special Use Permit for a Microbrewery in the C-2 Regional Retail zoning district. 3. Site Plan Review for the proposed modifications to the site. 15 December 20, 2018 Village Board Meeting 4. The petitioner will be required to seek separate approval for a liquor license. An amendment to the Liquor Code will be required to create a new liquor license class for a production brewery with a taproom/brew pub restaurant. In addition to the above actions, the petitioner is actively working with the developer of the Automall to revise the private Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CCR) for the Automall to allow the proposed microbrewery. Financial Impact The petitioner is seeking assistance to offset costs associated with the facility renovation and upgrades. Staff is seeking authorization to negotiate a Business Development Agreement. Courtesy Review The petitioner has requested the Village Board to conceptually review the proposed plans. The Village Board is not required to provide a formal position statement on the proposal, and the petitioner shall not be required to comply with any position statements which are offered. The concept review shall provide the petitioner with initial comments and concerns that should be considered as they proceed in the formal review process. The Village Board and its individual members are not bound by any comments made during the discussion and the petitioner acknowledges that it cannot claim in the future any reliance whatsoever on those comments. Strategic Plan Priority The 2016-2020 Strategic Plan identifies “Promote New Business Development, Retention, and Expansion” as a Strategic Priority, “Attract and Retain Businesses to Enhance Tax Base and Create New Jobs” as a goal, and “work with commercial property owners to attract additional restaurants and shopping opportunities” as an objective. Action Requested The Village Board is requested to review the proposed conceptual site plan and building elevations and provide any questions, comments, or concerns for the petitioner to consider as they proceed in the formal review process, and to authorize staff to negotiate a business development agreement for Village Board consideration. Director Nordman reported that Sunny Patel (Owner), Perry Patel (Owner), Shaun Berns (Head Brewer) and Evan Morris (General Manager) from More Brewing were in attendance to answer questions. Mayor Sass asked if the Village Board had any comments or questions. Trustee Leopold suggested that they add signage which is visible from the Tollway and not just to those getting off the Tollway or on Route 47. Trustee Leopold suggested that they adjust the current double long parking spaces; Director Nordman reported that they will need to re-stripe the lot. Trustee Goldman suggested that they work with the Tollway to add directional signage for those coming from the Rockford area. Mr. Patel stated that they were planning on putting the More Brewing name on 16 December 20, 2018 Village Board Meeting the silos; Mr. Morris stated that they will also work with the tollway for directional signage. Trustee Kanakaris asked about the silos. Mr. Berns stated that the silos will hold 48,000 pounds and they will install two (2) to start and will add more when they expand in the future. Trustee Kanakaris stated that he would support the silos being taller for better visibility and welcomed More Brewing to Huntley. Trustee Hoeft welcomed More Brewing to Huntley. There were no other questions or comments. A formal vote was not required for this agenda item as it was a conceptual review. k) Discussion – Business District Establishment for the Northeast and Southeast Quadrants of the IL Rt. 47/Freeman Road Intersection Village Manager David Johnson reported that on June 14, 2018, the Village Board reviewed the potential establishment of a Business District for the area on the east side of Route 47 on the north and south sides of Freeman Road. This area is included in the I-90/IL 47 Gateway Plan adopted as an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan on December 21, 2017. A Business District provides another option to generate financial resources to assist with the development or redevelopment of the undeveloped or vacant properties within the district. It was the consensus of the Village Board to move forward with Kane, McKenna and Associates (KMA) to conduct a Business District Analysis and put together a Business District Plan. KMA is familiar with the Village as they have previously worked with the Village to establish the Downtown TIF District and have consulted on other projects. Staff Analysis Illinois State Statute authorizes the establishment of a Business District, which authorizes a municipality to impose up to a 1% sales tax within a qualifying area to fund the development or redevelopment of property within the designated area. The municipality may impose this tax if it has a development or redevelopment plan for an area of the municipality that: • is currently within the corporate limits of the Village • is contiguous (i.e., the properties within the area border each other) • includes only parcels of real property that will directly and substantially benefit from the proposed plan, and • is blighted, as defined in the Illinois Municipal Code (see 65 ILCS 5/11-74.3-5) (an area that is, by reason of the predominance of defective, non-existent, or inadequate street layout, unsanitary or unsafe conditions, deterioration of site improvements, improper subdivision or obsolete platting, or the existence of conditions which endanger life or property by fire or other causes, or any combination of those factors, retards the provision of housing accommodations or constitutes an economic or social liability, an economic underutilization of the area, or a menace to the public health, safety, morals, or welfare) General merchandise items subject to state sales tax are also subject to the Business District sales tax. 17 December 20, 2018 Village Board Meeting Business District sales tax must be collected on general merchandise sold within the Business District regardless of whether the merchandise is sold at retail or transferred as a part of a sale of service. Business District sales tax does not apply to: • Sales of qualifying food, drugs, and medical appliances • Items that must be titled or registered by an agency of Illinois state government (vehicles) Business District sales tax may be imposed in 0.25% increments and cannot exceed 1%. The tax can be imposed up to 23 years. A hotel tax of 1% in addition to the current rate of 5% can also be implemented. Unlike a TIF, the Business District does not affect the property tax base and has no impact on the other taxing bodies. A timeline for implementation of the Business District is as follows: • January 10, 2019 Village Board Meeting – Draft plan is presented for consideration by the Village Board; A resolution is required authorizing a public hearing relating to the proposed business district • January 15 to February 4 - Two public notices published in the local newspaper for the Public Hearing; Notices sent to taxpayers and businesses within the district • February 14, 2019 - Public Hearing for establishment of Business District is held • February 28, 2019 – Ordinances may be adopted approving the Business District Plan and designating the Business District, and approval of Business District taxes • On/Before April 1, 2019 - Business District sales tax ordinances to be filed with the State of Illinois Department of Revenue for implementation beginning July 1, 2019 Strategic Plan Priority One of the main strategic priorities of the Village’s Strategic Plan is to “Promote New Business Development, Retention, and Expansion.” A major goal under this priority is to “Attract and Retain Businesses to Enhance the Tax Base and Create New Jobs”, and one of the objectives for this goal is to “work with the property owner to revitalize or redevelop the Huntley Outlet Center.” Another objective is to “secure a commitment for the construction of hotel.” The Economic Development Strategic Plan further identifies the following objectives: “work with the owner of the Huntley Outlet Center to revitalize or redevelop the property strategically located at the interchange of I-90 and Route 47.” Financial Impact The creation of a Business District would ultimately increase available funding to support both public and private improvements within the identified area on the east side of Rt. 47 adjacent to Freeman Road. Legal Analysis KMA will consult with the Village’s Special Legal Counsel to review final documents for the Business District. Village Manager Johnson stated that the proposed timeline may need to be adjusted as a result of follow- up discussions with some of the property owners within the proposed district. Mayor Sass stated that he believed this will be a good tool. 18 December 20, 2018 Village Board Meeting Mayor Sass asked if the Village Board had any comments or questions; there were none. It was the consensus of the Village Board to present the draft plan to the Village Board in January and to consider a resolution, at that meeting, authorizing a public hearing related to the proposed Business District. l) Consideration - An Ordinance Amending Title XI, Business Regulations, Chapter 110 Alcoholic Beverages to Create Class “J” and “K” Liquor Licenses Mayor Sass reported that the Village of Huntley regulates the sale of alcoholic beverages through its Liquor Control Ordinance in Title XI, Business Regulations, Chapter 110 Alcoholic Beverages. Staff Analysis In April 2018 the Village Board authorized a ±2,700 square foot microbrewery and outdoor seating area at the southeast corner of the Union Special facility near the intersection of Union Special Plaza and Borden Street for Union Special LLC and Sew Hop’d Brewery. Village Board approval was granted to Sew Hop’d with the understanding that a liquor code amendment would be needed to accommodate the operations of the microbrewery. Construction has been progressing throughout the year and Sew Hop’d is now targeting an early spring opening. An amendment is proposed to Title XI, Business Regulations, Chapter 110 Alcoholic Beverages to create a new Class “J” liquor license to allow for the microbrewery. A new Class “K” license is also being proposed for the Village Vintner Winery (Vintner), located at 10679 Wolf Drive. The State of Illinois Liquor Control Commission (ILCC) informed the Vintner that the business does not have a valid local liquor license to sell alcohol at retail at the premise location of 10679 Wolf Drive, which is the location where they manufacture wine and hold a federal basic permit as well. The licensee holds a brew pub license at 2380 Esplanade Drive in Algonquin. The State is now requiring the Vintner to obtain a local retailer’s license from the Village of Huntley for the Wolf Drive location in order to be compliant as a wine maker to provide wine to the Algonquin business for retail sale. The manufacturing district location of the Vintner on Wolf Drive, however, does not currently allow for retail sale. The Vintner intends to petition the Village for a Special Use Permit for a winery to allow for the retail sale of wine and apply for the Class “K” liquor license upon completion of the Special Use Permit process. Financial Impact An annual fee of $1,500 is charged for a liquor license. Legal Analysis The Village’s Special Counsel, the Filippini Law Firm prepared the draft ordinance. Mayor Sass asked if the Village Board had any comments or questions; there were none. A MOTION was made to approve an Ordinance Amending Title XI, Business Regulations, Chapter 110 Alcoholic Beverages creating Class “J” and “K” liquor licenses. 19 December 20, 2018 Village Board Meeting MOTION: Trustee Leopold SECOND: Trustee Hoeft AYES: Trustees: Goldman, Hoeft, Kanakaris, Leopold, Piwko and Westberg NAYS: None ABSENT: None The motion carried: 6-0-0 m) Consideration – An Ordinance Approving the Issuance of 2019 Video Gaming Licenses – Village of Huntley Code of Ordinances Section 110.60 Mayor Sass reported that pursuant to Section 110.60 of the Village Code of Ordinances, Video Gaming is regulated by the Village Board of Trustees and a license must be obtained prior to operating video gaming terminals.

Staff Analysis Staff has received a bid in the amount of $68.55 per ton for the purchase of road salt from Cargill Inc. Salt Division through the State of Illinois Department of Central Management Services (CMS) Joint Purchasing Procurement process. The Village has committed to an order of 2,500 tons of rock salt with a provision to increase the quantity by up to 20% (500 tons) at the bid price if necessary.

Mayor Sass asked if the Village Board had any comments or questions. Trustee Leopold asked if the pre-treatment of the streets with the vegetable juice saved on the purchase of road salt; Village Manager Johnson reported that the pre-treatment material is used in the equation of how much road salt to purchase. Trustee Hoeft stated that the beet juice does not let the snow and ice freeze and helps melt it. Trustee Kanakaris stated that he believes the pre-treatment is a waste of money. Village Manager Johnson stated that the pre-treatment helps get to bare pavement faster when plowing. Trustee Goldman asked if the Village has enough road salt to last until the new shipment arrives; Village Manager Johnson said that there is enough road salt. There were no other comments or questions. A MOTION was made to approve a Resolution Approving the Purchase of Road Rock Salt from Cargill, Inc., Salt Division through the State of Illinois Department of Central Management Services (CMS) Joint Purchasing Procurement Program in an Amount of $68.55 per Ton Not to Exceed $206,000.00. 12.20.18 VB Meeting 23 MOTION: Trustee Leopold SECOND: Trustee Hoeft AYES: Trustees: Goldman, Hoeft, Kanakaris, Leopold, Piwko and Westberg NAYS: None ABSENT: None The motion carried: 6-0-0 q) Consideration – A Resolution Granting Approval of the Sale and/or Disposal of Village-Owned Property Mayor Sass reported that all new vehicles approved in the FY2018 budget have now been delivered and staff will utilize an online auction service to sell vehicles and equipment no longer in service.

A summary of the proposed amendments is found below. 12.20.18 VB Meeting 24 Staff Analysis The following sections of the Village’s Personnel Manual are required to be amended to be compliant with State law. Section 204 - Unlawful Harassment and Discrimination On August 24, 2018 Public Act 100-1066 became law. This new law amends the Illinois Human Rights Act allowing employees more time to file charges of discrimination with the Illinois Department of Human Rights (IDHR) and to opt out of the IDHR investigation process and proceed directly to State court. Section 409 - Military Leave On January 1, 2019, the Illinois Service Member Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (ISERRA) will take effect. ISERRA streamlines the various job-related protections afforded to Illinois service members by consolidating provisions of the State’s various existing military leave laws to ensure service members’ employment and rights protection while fulfilling military requirements. Section 414 - Nursing Mothers in the Workplace Act On August 21, 2018 Public Act 100-1003 became law. This new law amends the Nursing Mothers in the Workplace Act, and expands protections for nursing mothers needing to express milk in the workplace. The most notable change is that break time provided for the expression of milk cannot reduce an employee’s compensation. Legal Analysis The amended policies have been reviewed by the Village’s employment attorney, Clark, Baird, Smith, LLP. Mayor Sass asked if the Village Board had any comments or questions; there were none. A MOTION was made to approve an Ordinance Amending the Village of Huntley Personnel Manual, Section 204: Unlawful Harassment and Discrimination; Section 409: Military Leave; Section 414: Nursing Mothers in the Workplace Act.
