Summary: The FY 2023 budget includes $120,000 in the Capital Projects Fund
for replacement of a 1988 generator. The proposed new unit will be purchased
through the Sourcewell Purchasing Cooperative, a co-op procurement group
that includes thousands of local governments.
D. Agreement to Purchase Two Mobile Column Truck Lifts via the NASPCO
Value Point Contract in the Amount Not-to-Exceed $90,000
Summary: Two sets of heavy-duty truck lifts from the late 1990s have reached
the end of their useful life and need replaced. The FY 2023 budget does not
include funds for this expense. The 20-year Community Investment Plan had
this replacement forecast for 2028 but with a set that is failing now, Staff
recommends expediting the purchase. The proposed new lifts are the same
manufacturer as existing lifts at Public Works, ARI-Hetra, purchased through
the National Association of State Procurement Officials Value Point Contract.
Recommended Action: A motion to approve the Consent Agenda as presented.

A. Agreement with Chicagoland Paving Contractors for Improvements to
Municipal Parking Lots and Walking Paths in the Amount Not-to-Exceed
$478,060 (Trustee Spacone)
Summary: The FY 2023 budget includes $600,000 in the Capital Improvement
Fund for infrastructure improvements at municipal parking lots and walking
paths at multiple locations around Lake Zurich, including: Zurites Park,
Chestnut Corners Park, Countryside West Soccer Field, the Lions Drive Bird
Observatory walking path, Sandlewood Park, Braemar Park, and the Alpine
Drive walking path.
The proposed sites include approximately 6,400 square-yards of parking lots,
access drives, and walking paths in addition to curb, sidewalk, and stormwater
drainage improvements.
A competitive bid opening on June 6, 2023 yielded three bids for this project,
with Chicagoland Paving of Lake Zurich submitting the most competitive bid.
The requested not-to-exceed amount of $478,060 includes $410,000 for the base
project plus $68,060 for engineering costs and project contingency.
Recommended Action: A motion to approve an agreement with Chicagoland
Paving Contractors for Improvements to Municipal Parking Lots and Walking
Paths in the Amount Not-to-Exceed $478,060.
B. Ordinance Approving a Development Agreement by and Between the Village
of Lake Zurich, Lake County, Illinois and Zen Properties, LLC (Assign Ord.
#2023-06-518) (Trustee Riley)
3
Summary: The Lake Zurich Industrial TIF District was created in January
2023 by the Village Board, after the review and unanimous approval of the
Joint Review Board, for the purpose of providing a long-term funding
mechanism for infrastructure improvements within the industrial park and
supporting business expansion and modernization efforts.
Zen Properties, LLC, doing business as CM Industries at 505 Oakwood, has
the need for more production and office space to facilitate its growing
operations and is requesting TIF assistance related to the construction of a
new facility at 865 Telser Road. The company has chosen this location to
construct an approximately 43,000 square-foot building to house its production
of robotic welding torches, welding guns, smoke extractors, and nozzle cleaning
stations that serve the energy, transportation, construction, and waste
treatment industries.
This new industrial production facility will cost approximately $6.1 million to
develop, including TIF-eligible expenses such as site work prep, engineering
and architecture fees, and electric/gas utility connections. A future Telser
Road facility for CM Industries would create new jobs, but more importantly
will retain this business in the Lake Zurich industrial park as the Village
competes with other municipalities for economic development projects.
The proposed TIF development agreement will help offset this significant $6.1
million investment into the community with a rebate of $652,000 of future
property taxes over approximately 10 years through the Tax Increment
Finance District #4 (Industrial TIF), which equates to approximately 10.7% of
the overall costs of this company expansion project.
Recommended Action: A motion to approve Ordinance #2023-06-518
Approving a Development Agreement by and between the Village of Lake
Zurich, Lake County, Illinois and Zen Properties, LLC.
