Village staff is proposing the following amendments to the adopted annual budget for the fiscal year 2025. The amendment includes revenue amendments totaling $5,000,000 and expenditure amendments totaling $11,514,500. Discussion General Fund The General Fund’s current budget is $84,758,397. Staff are proposing an amendment totaling $5,037,500 to the General Fund Budget as discussed below. 1. Loan for the Prospect & Main TIF: The Village Board authorized the purchasing of 111 E. Busse Property for $5.0 million. This acquisition is funded by a loan from the General Fund. This loan will be paid by the Prospect & Main TIF with a 4% interest; the loan is expected to be repaid by 2033. The amount is not an expense for the year, and will be posted on the General Fund Balance Sheet as “Due from Prospect & Main TIF Fund”. It is customary practice to budget for this transfer. In light of the same, the proposed amendment includes $5,000,000 in transfer-out to the Prospect & Main Fund. This is a corresponding transfer-in amendment for the Prospect & Main Fund for the exact amount. 2. Fire Department Amendment: The Fire Department started operating its fourth fire station (Station 11) in July 2024. With added firefighters/paramedics and a new facility, the Fire Department needed an additional $37,500 in various equipment, turn-out clothing, and other professional services. These amounts were not accurately budgeted in the original budget. The Fire Department also recently acquired the cloud-based software "Continuum" for operational needs. This software is approved by the Page 10 of 48  Northwest Central Dispatch and the Village is getting a discount due to being a member of the Northwest Central Dispatch. This item was not in the original budget and is now being added to the budget. After the adoption of the above-mentioned amendments, the General Fund budget for 2025 will total $90,795,897. South Mount Prospect TIF The Village initially budgeted for the Oakton Watermain Project under the water/sewer fund. The South Mount Prospect TIF has generated enough tax incremental revenues to support this project. The South Mount Prospect TIF included an initial budget of $750,000 for the project, with a total project cost of $2,160,000. The proposed budget amendment increases the project budget under the South Mount Prospect TIF Fund by $1,410,000. With this proposed amendment, the annual budget for the South Mount Prospect TIF Fund will total $2,305,000. Parking System Revenue Fund The Village shares 1/3 of all the parking fees collected from the East and West Metra parking lots per the agreement in place. The estimated expenditure for this year is $55,000. The original budget did not include the revenue sharing to be paid as a lease payment to Union Pacific. The proposed amendment recognizes the same and provides for a budget of $55,000 for the lease payment to Union Pacific. The added credit card transactions and volume would require $12,000 in additional banking fees for the Parking System Revenue Fund. The total Parking System Revenue Fund budget will be $142,195 with these amendments. Prospect & Main TIF As discussed under the General Fund, there is a corresponding transfer-in amendment of $5.0 million for the Prospect & Main TIF. These funds are for the acquisition of 111 E. Busse property. This amount will be recognized as a liability for the fund and will be posted on the Balance Sheet of the Prospect & Main Fund as “Due to General Fund”. This amount will be paid back by the Prospect & Main TIF Fund with 4% interest (per annum). The amendment also includes $5.0 million in property acquisition expenditure for 111 E. Busse. With the above-discussed amendments, the revenue budget for 2025 will total $165,943,865 and the expenditure budget will total $189,179,927. The current revenue levels are sufficient to cover these amendments. Additionally, the Village has enough cash on hand and reserves to accommodate these amendments. Please see the attached ordinance and exhibits for line-item details. Alternatives 1. Waive the rules requiring two readings of an ordinance and adopt the attached ordinance for budget amendment no.3., adding $5.0 million to the revenue budget and $11,514,500 to the expenditure budget. 2.

Townships may levy taxes, pass local ordinances and regulations, and provide various services as authorized by state statutes and elected officials. The residents of the Village of Mount Prospect are also served by Elk Grove and Wheeling Townships, with Central Road being the shared north/south boundary between the two townships. Wheeling Township, located in Chicago's Northwest suburbs, is 36 square miles and is home to 154,000 residents. Approximately 1,100 people live in the unincorporated areas. The Township's boundaries are Lake Cook Road on the North, Central Road on the South, the Des Plaines River on the East, and Wilke Road on the West. The mission of Wheeling Township is to responsibly allocate tax dollars to fulfill our state- mandated responsibilities while also providing services, information, and resources to assist and benefit our residents. Partnerships with individuals, organizations, schools, churches, and corporations enable Wheeling Township to offer low-cost or no-cost services to residents in need. A presentation by Wheeling Township Supervisor, Maria Zeller Brauer, will highlight the services available to residents of Wheeling Township, including the Village of Mount Prospect. These services support some of the most vulnerable residents, such as seniors and individuals with disabilities. They include: general assistance, food pantry, senior services, and transportation services. Discussion Township Supervisor, Maria Zeller Brauer, will be present to provide a review of Township services. Alternatives Page 19 of 48  1. Review of Wheeling Township services. 2.

Marketed as alternatives to cannabis and often producing similar effects, these products are not subject to the same regulatory oversight, safety inspections, or taxation as legally authorized cannabis or pharmaceutical drugs. Discussion The Illinois General Assembly enacted the Cannabis Regulation and Tax Act (CRTA) in 2019, legalizing the cultivation, sale, and consumption of cannabis statewide. Along with the earlier Compassionate Use of Medical Cannabis Program Act, the CRTA requires cannabis to be grown, processed, and sold exclusively by state of Illinois licensed facilities. Licensed facilities must comply with strict regulations ensuring the quality, potency, and purity of cannabis products. Legally sold cannabis must be free from harmful pesticides and additives and cannot be sold to individuals under 21, except for certain patients under the medical cannabis program. Although commonly viewed as separate, "cannabis" and "hemp" are actually strains of the same plant— Cannabis sativa. The key legal distinction lies in the concentration of delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol (Delta-9 THC). Plants containing 0.3% or less Delta-9 THC by dry weight are classified as industrial hemp and are not regulated under the CRTA or Medical Use Act. Plants exceeding this threshold are considered cannabis and subject to state regulation. The 2018 Federal Farm Bill legalized the cultivation of industrial hemp based on the assumption that it was non-intoxicating. However, Cannabis sativa contains over 100 naturally occurring cannabinoids, some of which—such as Delta-8 THC, Delta-10 TCH and TCH-O—can produce intoxicating effects similar to Delta-9 THC. These compounds can be synthesized from industrial hemp, placing them in a regulatory gray area: they are not governed by state cannabis laws nor listed on the federal drug schedules under the Controlled Substances Act. Page 41 of 48 As a result, they are often sold in unlicensed storefronts without oversight, safety testing, or tax obligations. Municipalities across Illinois have responded by implementing local bans. Additionally, Village staff has identified increased local availability of Kratom, a botanical substance from Southeast Asia with psychoactive properties, and Tianeptine, a synthetic compound often sold in convenience stores and gas stations under misleading names such as “Zaza” or “Tianna.” While marketed as mood enhancers or nootropics, Tianeptine has been linked to serious health risks including addiction, withdrawal symptoms, and overdose. It is not approved by the FDA and has been banned or restricted in multiple states. Many of these retail products are displayed and sold in environments that mimic state-licensed dispensaries, increasing the risk of consumer confusion and youth access. These products are unregulated, untested, untaxed, and present growing concerns for public health and safety. After review, Village staff concluded that the sale of unregulated THC products, Kratom, and Tianeptine is not in the best interest of the Village or its residents and may pose risks to consumer safety and community welfare. These products lack safety testing, do not comply with potency standards, and are not subject to applicable state and local taxes. Communities in the area are starting to regulate THC products, Kratom, and Tianeptine. The table below shows the dates when municipalities enacted ordinances to ban Delta-8 THC, Kratom, and Tianeptine.

Consider an ordinance amending Chapter 23 of the Village Code (Offenses and Miscellaneous Regulations) to prohibit the sale of "Illicit THC Products", Kratom, and Tianeptine. 2. Action at the discretion of the Village Board. Staff Recommendation The Village Board is asked to consider an ordinance amending Chapter 23 of the Village Code (Offenses and Miscellaneous Regulations) to prohibit the sale of "Illicit THC Products", Kratom, and Tianeptine. The draft ordinance prepared by staff includes a grace period to allow existing businesses to sell or safely dispose of their current inventory. The Village Board is asked to determine the appropriate length of this grace period. Importantly, the ordinance would not prohibit the future operation of state-licensed cannabis dispensaries in the Village. Attachments 1. THC-KRATOM-TIANEPTINE ORDINANCE Page 43 of 48  ORDINANCE NO. __________ AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 23 (OFFENSES AND MISCELLANEOUS REGULATIONS) OF THE MOUNT PROSPECT VILLAGE CODE TO PROHIBIT SALE OF UNREGULATED THC PRODUCTS, KRATOM, AND TIANEPTINE, AND ESTABLISHING PENALTIES IN MOUNT PROSPECT, ILLINOIS WHEREAS, the sale of hemp-derived intoxicating products (e.g., Delta-8, Delta-10, THC-O) Kratom, and substances such as Tianeptine remains largely unregulated—without testing, potency controls, labeling standards, or taxation—and presents health, safety, and consumer-protection concerns; and WHEREAS, the Village Board finds these products are misleading to consumers, pose a risk to public health, and are inconsistent with the regulatory and tax framework for legal cannabis and controlled substances; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE MAYOR AND BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE VILLAGE OF MOUNT PROSPECT, COOK COUNTY, ILLINOIS ACTING IN THE EXERCISE OF THEIR HOME RULE POWERS: SECTION ONE: RECITALS. The foregoing recitals are incorporated into, and made a part of, this Ordinance as the findings of the Village Board. SECTION TWO: PROHIBITION OF SALE OF ILLICIT THC PRODUCTS, KRATOM, AND TIANEPTINE Chapter 23, titled “Offenses and Miscellaneous Regulations” of the Village Code is hereby amended by adding a new Article XXVI, which shall be and read as follows: “Article XXVI. SALE OF ILLICIT THC PRODUCTS, KRATOM, AND TIANEPTINE PROHIBITED 23.2601: STATEMENT OF FINDINGS AND PURPOSE: A. The Village Board of Trustees hereby finds and declares the following: 1. The State of Illinois has established a comprehensive legal framework for the regulation, testing, and taxation of cannabis products through the Cannabis Regulation and Tax Act (CRTA) and the Compassionate Use of Medical Cannabis Program Act. 2. In contrast, hemp-derived intoxicants — such as Delta-8 THC, Delta-10 THC, THC-O, and other synthetic or semi-synthetic cannabinoids —are not subject to comparable regulation or quality controls and may be legally sold outside of the state’s licensed cannabis framework. 3. These unregulated products are frequently manufactured using chemical processes, lack independent testing for potency or safety, and may contain harmful adulterants or contaminants. 4. Kratom, a psychoactive botanical substance, and Tianeptine, a synthetic compound with opioid-like effects, are similarly unregulated at the state and federal level and have been associated with adverse health outcomes, including addiction, withdrawal, and overdose when misused. 5. Tianeptine, although not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, is increasingly marketed in convenience stores and gas stations as a mood enhancer or nootropic despite its risks of dependency and overdose. Page 44 of 48  6. The availability of these substances, particularly in unregulated and misleading commercial environments, poses risks to public health, youth, and vulnerable populations, and undermines legitimate state-licensed systems for cannabis and pharmaceuticals. 7. These products are not subject to the same taxation as legal cannabis, creating economic disparities and reducing public revenues. 8. Numerous Illinois municipalities have enacted similar bans or restrictions in the interest of protecting public health, consumer safety, and community welfare. B. Purpose: 1. The purpose of this article is to protect the health, safety, and welfare of Village residents by prohibiting the sale, distribution, and marketing of unregulated intoxicating products that are not subject to established quality standards or oversight. This includes: i. Synthetic and semi-synthetic cannabinoids derived from industrial hemp that are marketed for intoxicating effects but are not regulated under Illinois cannabis law; ii. Kratom and kratom-containing products, which present similar risks due to lack of regulatory controls; iii. Tianeptine-containing products, often misleadingly marketed and posing significant risk of abuse; iv. Preventing the misleading appearance of legitimacy associated with the retail sale of these products in storefronts that resemble licensed cannabis dispensaries; v. Preserving the integrity of the Village’s commercial environment and aligning local policies with best practices adopted by neighboring and peer municipalities. 2. This amendment is intended to close a regulatory gap and ensure that only properly tested, taxed, and state-regulated products are offered for sale within the Village. 23.2602: DEFINITIONS: For the purposes of this Chapter, the following terms have the meanings ascribed to them in this article unless different meanings are plainly indicated by the context: ILLICIT THC PRODUCT: Any product, material, compound, isomer, acid, salt, mixture, or preparation: A. Used or intended for human consumption; B. That is not made, manufactured sold, given away, bartered, exchanged, distributed, furnished, marketed, advertised, or otherwise held out for sale by cannabis business establishments duly licensed under the Compassionate Use of Medical Cannabis Program Act (410 ILCS 130/1, et seq.) or the Cannabis Regulation and Tax Act (410 ILCS 705/1-1 et seq.); and C. That contains: (1) any amount of synthesized tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) of any kind, inclusive of acid forms, regardless of name, and including but not limited to THC-O, delta-8 tetrahydrocannabinol, and delta-10 tetrahydrocannabinol, (2) a total delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol concentration level in excess of 0.3% on a dry weight basis, (3) a total delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol content in excess of 0.5 milligrams per labeled serving or individual unit or 2.5 milligrams per package regardless of the number of Page 45 of 48  labeled servings or individual units herein, (4) kratom, as that term is defined in Section 5(a) of the Illinois Kratom Control Act, 720 ILCS 642/5(a), as may be amended, or (5) Tianeptine in any form, including but not limited to tianeptine sulfate and tianeptine sodium. KRATOM: Any parts of the plant mitragyna speciosa, whether growing or not, and any compound, manufacture, salt, derivative, mixture, or preparation of that plant, including but not limited to mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine. SYNTHESIZED THC: Tetrahydrocannabinol synthesized in a laboratory or by industry using directed or biosynthetic chemistry rather than traditional food preparation techniques such as heating or extracting. TIANEPTINE: The chemical 7-((3-chloro-6-methyl-5, 5-dioxido-6, 11-dihydrodibenzo [c,f][1,2] thiazepin-11-yl)amino) heptanoic acid, and any compound, manufacture, salt, derivative, mixture, or preparation thereof. TOTAL DELTA-9 THC CONTENT: The value determined after the process of decarboxylation, or the application of a conversion factor if the testing methodology does not include decarboxylation, that expressed the potential total delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol content derived from the sum of the THC and THCA content and reported on a dry weight basis, to be calculated either by using a chromatograph technique using heat, such as gaschromatography, through which THCA is converted from its acid form to its neutral form, or by using a liquid chromatograph technique, which keeps the THCA intact, and using the following conversion: [Total THC= (0.877 x THCA) + THC] which calculates the potential total THC in a given sample. 23.2603: SALE OF ILLICIT THC PRODUCTS, KRATOM, AND TIANEPTINE PROHIBITED: It shall be unlawful for any retail establishment to sell, or offer for sale, give away, or deliver any illicit THC product, kratom, or tianeptine. 23.2604: PENALTIES Any person and/or retail business whose agent or employee violates this Article shall be fined not less than $200.00 and not more than $750.00 for each offense, and every day on which a violation occurs or continues shall be considered a separate and distinct offense. In addition, a violation of this prohibition shall be considered a nuisance in fact and a clear and present danger to the public health, safety, or general welfare, constituting grounds for suspension or revocation of a business license pursuant to Section 11.302 of this code.” SECTION THREE: EFFECTIVE DATE. This Ordinance shall be in full force and effect [120 days] after its passage, approval, and publications in pamphlet form in the manner provided by law.
