• Payment of $1,000 by video gaming terminal operator per location

b) Consideration - An Ordinance Amending the Huntley Code of Ordinances – Title XI
Business Regulations, Chapter 110 Alcoholic Beverages to Create a Class “M” Liquor
License Classification - Event Venue
Mayor Hoeft reported that the Village regulates the sale of alcoholic beverages through its Liquor
Control Ordinance in Title XI, Business Regulations, Chapter 110 Alcoholic Beverages, Video Gaming
and Electronic Sweepstakes Machines.
Staff Analysis
Staff was contacted by Chris and Barb Lincoln (owners) of the Lincoln Farmstead requesting to obtain a
liquor license for their event venue located at 8401 N. Route 47. Previously liquor was provided by
private liquor caterers for their events held at the venue. The owners have decided they would prefer to
handle the liquor for their events. The Code of Ordinances currently does not include a class for an
event venue to provide alcoholic beverages. A Class “M” license is being proposed to accommodate
the request.
The Class “M” proposed amendment language for Chapter 110 of the Code of Ordinances was prepared
by the Village Attorney as outlined in bold below:
§ 110.01 DEFINITIONS
For purpose of this chapter, the following definitions shall apply unless the context
clearly indicates or requires a different meaning:
* * *
EVENT VENUE. A business establishment the primary purpose of which is to offer
buildings, rooms, or other spaces and facilities to rent or reserve for special events,
meetings, social gatherings, and similar activities that are not open to the general public.
An event venue may include, without limitation, banquet facilities, ballrooms, event
rooms, meeting or conference facilities, and indoor or outdoor ceremony or event
spaces, seating and dining areas, service bars, dance floors, and the like.
§ 110.23 CLASSIFICATION AND FEES
(A) There shall be ten eleven classes of licenses:
(11) Class “M.” Class “M,” which shall permit only:
(a) Retail sale of alcoholic liquor, for consumption only on the licensed
premises, at an event venue (as defined in Section 110.01) during events and
gatherings that are not open to the general public.
(b) Retail sales and service of alcoholic liquors on the licensed premises shall be
limited to the hours of 10am to 12am on Saturdays and 12pm to 12am
Sunday through Friday
(c) The licensed premises may include outdoor areas on the private property of
the event venue to the extent specified in the license. Outdoor areas shall
include any spaces or facilities that are not within a fully-enclosed building.
Each license, when issued, shall identify the boundaries of any outdoor areas
where alcoholic liquors will be sold, served, or permitted to be consumed.

December16, 2021
Village Board Meeting
The applicant shall provide a site plan identifying the location of outdoor
bars, seating or dining areas, event spaces, or other outdoor areas proposed
to be included within the licensed premises.
§ 110.24 LIMITATION ON LICENSES
(J) There shall be no more than one Class “M” license in the corporate limits of the
Village at any one time.
Financial Impact
The annual fee of $1,500 is the cost for a Class “M” liquor license and must be paid at time of
application.
Legal Analysis
The Village Attorney prepared the code amendment and all is in order for Village Board consideration.
Mayor Hoeft asked if the Village Board had any comments or questions; there were none.

c) Consideration – An Ordinance Approving the Renewal of 2022 Tobacco Licenses; as
listed in Attachment A to this Agenda – Village of Huntley Code of Ordinances Chapter
120.03 and 120.05, Tobacco
Mayor Hoeft reported that pursuant to Chapter 120 of the Village Code of Ordinances, tobacco is
regulated by the Village Board of Trustees and a license must be obtained prior to selling tobacco and
tobacco products. Tobacco license applications were distributed to current license holders in October
for licensing renewals as of January 1, 2022.
A Class “A” license is defined as an Accessory Use license that offers tobacco products and/or tobacco
paraphernalia for sale at retail but derives less than 30% of its gross revenue from the sale of tobacco
products and tobacco paraphernalia. The fee for a Class “A” license is $200. The Code of Ordinances
allows for an unlimited number of Class “A” Accessory Use licenses, as the sale of tobacco products is
not the primary function of the establishment.
A Class “B” license is required for a tobacco store that offers tobacco products and/or tobacco
paraphernalia for sale at retail and derives 30% or more of its gross revenue from the sale of tobacco
products and tobacco paraphernalia. The fee for a Class “B” license is $500.
As part of the application, the following items are required to be submitted:
• Signed Application

Village Board Meeting
• Economic Interest Disclosure Form
• Payment of $200 for a Class “A” license; Payment of $500 for a Class “B” license

Staff Analysis
There are currently 11 business that hold a Class “A” license and three businesses that hold a Class “B”
license. Route 47 Liquors, which previously held a Class “A” license, closed in October 2021 and did
not submit a renewal application.
The following establishments have submitted the proper documentation and payment for a tobacco
license for 2022:

They signed an Admission of Violation and Waiver of Hearing agreement to pay a $250 fine and waive
the hearing before the Village Board. There have been no other code violations in 2021.
Financial Impact
As part of the approved FY22 Budget, tobacco license revenue is included under the Licenses and
Permits line item in the General Fund. Payments received as part of the 2022 application process have
been deposited in this line item. Total license fees are $3,700 ($200 for eleven Class “A” licenses =
$2,200; $500 for three Class “B” licenses = $1,500)
Legal Analysis
Chapter 120 of the Village Code of Ordinances regulates tobacco sales in the Village. The applications
have been reviewed and comply with Chapter 120, Tobacco.
Mayor Hoeft asked if the Village Board had any comments or questions; there were none.
A MOTION was made to approve an Ordinance Approving the Renewal of the 2022 Tobacco

d) Consideration – A Resolution Approving the Design to Repurpose the Huntley/Prime
Ground Sign Located Along I-90
Director of Development Services Charles Nordman reported that the Development Agreement with
Huntley Development Limited Partnership (HDLP) approved by the Village Board on August 26, 2021,
included the repurposing of the Huntley/Prime ground sign located along I-90. The cost of repurposing
the signage is the responsibility of HDLP. Village staff has been working with Parvin-Clauss Sign
Company to redesign the sign within the parameters identified in the Development Agreement.
Staff Analysis
The ability to make significant structural changes to the sign is limited based on the remote location of
the sign and the inability for the sign contractor to access the location with large equipment, such as a
crane. The proposed repurposing of the sign will maintain the existing stonework and columns, which
are in good condition. The modifications to the sign will include removing the existing text from the
sign and replacing it with the Village’s logo and “Welcome to Huntley.” A rendering of the proposed
sign is attached. The sign contractor will also replace the existing ground lights with new LED
replacement fixtures.
Financial Impact
In accordance with the Development Agreement, Huntley Development Limited Partnership is
responsible for the cost of repurposing the sign.
Mayor Hoeft asked if the Village Board had any comments or questions.
Trustee Leopold stated that he did not like seeing the line between the two (2) pieces of the sign and
wants the Village’s logo to be larger.
Director Nordman stated that he has spoken with the contractor and the seam will not be as noticeable as
depicted on the exhibit. He will also speak with them about increasing the size of the logo.
There were no other comments or questions.

f) Consideration – A Resolution Authorizing a Professional Services Agreement with
Christopher B. Burke Engineering, Ltd. (CBBEL) for Design Engineering of Downtown
On-Street Parking along 1st Street and Woodstock Street
Director of Public Works and Engineering Timothy Farrell reported that the Downtown Streetscape
project is proceeding with the creation of additional on-street parking. The limits of parkway
improvements would include the west right of way of Woodstock Street from the Post Office facility to
2nd Street (425 ft.), and the north right of way of 1st Street from Church Street to Woodstock Street
(300 ft.). On-street parallel parking is proposed within the parkways along both the west side of
Woodstock Street and the north side of 1st Street to match the character of previously created locations
of on-street parallel parking in the downtown area.
The project will also include the replacement of the public sidewalk along the western side of
Woodstock Street within the limits of the improvements. Roadway street lighting will also be extended
along the western right of way along Woodstock Street between 1st and 2nd Streets. Areas of
disturbance within the parkways will be restored with topsoil, seed and erosion control blanket.
Staff Analysis
Staff has received a proposal from Christopher B. Burke Engineering, Ltd. (CBBEL) for design
engineering services for on-street parallel parking within the parkways along both the west side of
Woodstock Street and the north side of 1st Street. Staff has reviewed the proposal and all is in order for

Illinois Attorney General has a settlement deadline for those municipalities wishing to participate of
13
December16, 2021
Village Board Meeting
January 2, 2022. If the Village wants to opt-in, we could receive funding that would provide for opioid
remediation and local programs. The Village would have to waive claims to any opioid manufacturers.
Trustee Leopold stated that he would not support this as it would cause too much paperwork for Staff
and there is not much need for it in the Village.
Trustee Kittel asked for what type of programs could the Police Department use these funds; Attorney
Gates-Alford reported that law enforcement can use them for training, community outreach and can also
create new programs.
Trustee Goldman stated that it is a win-win opportunity.
Attorney Gates-Alford stated that the settlement is not yet finalized but as proposed can directly fund
remediation. Attorney Gates-Alford stated that the Village would have to report how the funds are used.
It was the consensus of the Village Board to have Attorney Gates-Alford complete the paperwork.
