E. PLEDGE TO THE FLAG:
Wehrli announced that Pam Gallahue has been appointed to Deputy City
Manager.
Wehrli asked for an update regarding recent activity in the downtown.
Arres commented that the recent four-day Last Fling event was successful,
very well planned, and experienced very few issues. He continued with a
statement about recent activity over the past few weekends in the downtown,
summer staffing strategies, that Naperville is a safe city but not a crime-free
city, recent YouTube videos, and urged witnesses to call 911 instead of
recording an incident.
Council discussed police resources, thefts in the downtown, impact to business
revenue, increased police presence in the downtown, addressing illegal parking,
the importance of striking a balance between being an alarmist and not adding
to the perception that downtown is not safe, that staff is working to resolve
issues, and upcoming meetings with downtown business owners.

James Kerns (Naperville) discussed recent changes and asked that signage
changes be discussed with nearby residents.
WRITTEN COMMENT ONLY
Dear Council and Mayor, Last week, the Naperville Sun published a cover story
about a group of young people in downtown Naperville. The story was based on
a kid’s video titled “Some You Tube Shit Man,” and covered one minute and
thirteen seconds after 10:00 p.m. in Naperville. The edited video included
subtitles such as “BLM.” The fact that the Trib did not vet this young YouTuber
who has also posted videos with misogynistic and transphobic content, is
disappointing enough. What concerns me more are recent social media posts
about this video by members of the Naperville City Council. It is inappropriate to
deliberately arouse public alarm before facts, evidence, or statements from our
police department are issued. “Troubling trends” and danger from outside
groups are unsubstantiated claims that these politicians are using to cause
anxiety and division in a city that happens to be rated the number one safe city
in the country. The Safe Suburbs PAC leader who helped elect these members
also jumped on the story to stoke fear of danger. This prompted the propaganda
outlet DuPage Policy Journal to further inflame constituents and stoke partisan
fears and anxiety about safety. The Naperville Police did not issue any warnings
about danger, violence, or safety issues in Naperville after dark. The council
members did not mention that citations were given for loitering and that no
violence occurred. Additionally, one council member attacked a constituent
(comment now hidden which, if memory serves included comments: “Everyone
knows what you're doing-I won’t accommodate my behavior to make you
comfortable” or something similar, and a comment about receiving many
City of Naperville Page 4 Printed on 9/20/2023
City Council Meeting Minutes September 5, 2023
emails. When asked how many, the question was ignored.) Communicating in
a snide manner is not behavior expected from an elected official. It was my
understanding that after the debacle concerning an extremist anti-government
group members’ potential appointments to commissions and boards, the city
was working on a code of conduct for social media based on best practices
from other cities for members of commissions, boards, and city entities. What
is the status of this initiative? Elected officials posting emotional reactions and
communicating alarm and danger without facts or evidence is a great
disservice to our city and to our after-dark downtown businesses. Elected
representatives are expected to act regarding problems in the city, but not to
create those issues through non-fact-based communications. These actions
are further dividing our community. As an aside, I live in downtown Naperville
and often enjoy eateries downtown. Families enjoying ice cream are abundant.
Rampant crime and thuggery is not. It is disingenuous to create this false
perception. Please enforce the social media code of conduct. I look forward to
hearing facts and planned prevention actions from our Naperville Police
Department. Sincerely, Karen V. Peck Naperville

L. ORDINANCES AND RESOLUTIONS:
1. Pass the ordinance amending Section 11-2B of the Naperville Municipal Code to
eliminate commuter parking permits and expand daily fee parking
Sharon Gerell spoke against the recommended changes.
Council discussed recommended changes, whether higher fees would have
made an impact to permit holders, the types of communication methods used
to promote the initiative, that parking has been underutilized, that the City needs
to maintain the lots and is operating in a deficit, the revisions that were made
during the first reading at the last meeting, the fees associated with the app and
kiosk, discounted rates, that ample parking is still available, and thanked staff for
years of work on this topic.
Novack stated that higher fees may have moved some permit holders to turn
them in but most would have kept them.

WRITTEN COMMENT ONLY
Matt Frego (Naperville) - Currently Metra charges a $$10.00 daily fee for their
"daily pass". This allows the commuter a train ride to Chicago and back home.
This proposal is looking to increase the fee to $$5.00 per day which is exactly
1/2 of what I pay to take the train into the City. I park in the Burlington Parking Lot
3 days per week. Thus my quarterly fee (3 months) is $$120. Based on this fee
schedule I will now be paying $$180 per quarter. I am a life long Naperville
resident who was on the waiting list to obtain a parking permit for almost 10
years. During Covid, even though I was not commuting, I still paid my quarterly
fee and kept the pass knowing that this would pass and I would start commuting
again. What concessions are you offering someone like me who has been loyal
and abiding to all of your rules? Additionally how can you justify such a large fair
increase when you are not even offering an phone app to make this payment? I
found it egregious that you are looking to charge so much more for parking and
have made zero improvements to the lot or the methods of receiving payments.
I often get the station a few minutes before the train departs. Offering payment
through a machine each and every day is not a valid solution. Providing a link to
a website is also not a valid solution. Towns such as Lake Geneva and even
Chicago offer parking apps. Before you start charging way more than ever
before for parking why don't you first improve the methods for receiving
payment. It appears to me that this is yet another way Naperville is looking to
take advantage of their residents who commute into the City for work.
Jack Logan (Naperville) - I'm retired recently. The wife and I either individually
are together coming to downtown since 1987. Covered hidden basically March
2020. I kept the tag since then I never really used it except for a couple times
going downtown. The train was packed pretty much and I never had to do the
online computer payment of that box in the fifth avenue station. They're around a
thousand people on on the train I took so. So the city gets out of the hassle
maintain the plastic bags and mail out the stickers in the bills which is a lot of
money So the work has been transferred to the commuter meaning that $$3 a
day I can use an app on their phone their phone a little more to get to the office.
Over the years I saw that parking enforcement officer checking cars. No good
solution necessarily but it's a nice revenue source. 1000 cars a day three bucks
times 20 days a month. It's in the winter snowing or is it raining heavily it's and
you have to go into the station to put your three bucks in the box. The train is like
11 or 12 cars long. And if you miss your train I haven't checked the schedule
recently which could be like 40 minutes later into work it's currently doesn't go
over well with meetings there was a boss. Maybe make the lots free. Just a
suggestion.
Marilyn L Schweitzer (Naperville) - Please support the elimination of commuter
parking permits and expand daily fee parking. The existing policy is both
confusing and highly inefficient. I guess the $$2/$$5 concept is to give folks a
discount who park further away, but that adds an additional complication that
makes no sense on off hours and penalizes seniors, expectant mothers, and
people with disabilities. Thus, please support the $$3 flat rate option, with
discounted weekly and monthly bundles. I suspect though that more space may
be need for Seniors and Expectant Mothers and hope this will be monitored.

City Council Meeting Minutes September 5, 2023
Finally, as the new signage and website verbiage is be worked out, please
ensure it is no longer confusing for AMTRAK customers. Currently, the
AMTRAK website says, “Complimentary parking is available at the Naperville
station by obtaining a parking permit from a customer service representative at
the station.” But, I have frequently seen panicked AMTRAK customers unsure of
where they are actually allowed to park because they signs discuss "permit
parking" and "daily fee" parking, yet "permit parking" is limited to assigned space
and is not overnight.
A motion was made by Councilman Holzhauer, seconded by Councilman Kelly,
to pass the ordinance amending Section 11-2B of the Naperville Municipal Code

WRITTEN COMMENT ONLY
Marykate Bayer (Naperville) - Option A: I concur with the Planning and Zoning
Commission and staff to deny the Jet Brite request in the B2 zoning. Such a
gross deviation within B2 would set up dangerous precedence for future
deviations. I respect the zoning levels that have been created by people with
more knowledge and expertise than me, thus I do not agree that we should
allow such deviations. “Background” for the request from Jet Brite notes that
there will be space for stacking 42 cars while waiting for a car wash and 39
vacuums. those 42 cars (plus those in the wash) and 39 in vacuums must
enter the car wash on 83rd street, less than 170’ from the major intersection of
state rd 59. And then they must exit onto State rt 59 about 400’ from a very busy
intersection with a light. 400’ is not very far from an intersection to be sending a
constant stream of cars - out into a fast traffic pattern of cars roaring thru a
stoplight. Market studies can be made to state any conclusion the hiring firm
requires. Evidenced by all the eyesore vacant businesses currently found along
rt 59. Or as proven by the building of the second daycare center approved on
City of Naperville Page 10 Printed on 9/20/2023
City Council Meeting Minutes September 5, 2023
the southside of 83rd st (the entrance which is across from aero drive and the
proposed car wash. This second daycare was approved by “market studies”
and yet sat vacant after construction for several years and has now a different
use than approved. At least daycare centers have value for improvement in
mankind, unlike a car wash! I oppose the use of B2 zone for a car wash.
Julie Meares (Naperville) - Please don’t allow a car wash to destroy my back
yard. We live on the corner directly behind the empty lot. This is a long standing
quiet residential neighborhood. My brothers and I grew up here. I came back
here when my husband died. I came back again when my son died last year. I
feel safe here. I worry about so many changes. Most of all I worry that if this
section is annexed my parents won’t be able to afford to live here and we will all
lose our safe place. Please don’t turn my home into a car wash. Thank you,
Julie Meares 9S374 Aero Dr
John Dvorak (Naperville) - As Aero Estates' water source is well water, I am
most concerned about the likely car wash chemicals which will drain or wash
into nearby grounds from the car wash during rain storms which will then
contaminate our household water. It may be very difficult to adequately test the
water supply throughout the neighborhood on a regular basis, and if there is
ever chemicals found in our water supply, then there may be no reasonable
cure for over 100 families' home drinking, bathing and landscaping water
supply. The proposed car wash is immediately adjacent to the Aero Estates
neighborhood, too close to be safe to a neighborhood that relies on well water
sourced from under each home's yard. Ground water can travel a significant
distance. Ground water is replenished by rainfall. And we have several large
rainstorms a year when significant amounts of water flows through the
neighborhood. It does not seem possible that some amount of residual
chemicals on the car wash site would not seep and or wash into the ground
water providing the neighborhood with it's drinking water.
Marilyn L Schweitzer (Naperville) - Please concur with staff and the PZC (option
A) and deny the petitioner's request for annexation, rezoning, and a PUD use for
a car wash. There is a Jet Brite at 850 E Ogden Ave which is zoned B-3. The
conditional use of this property for a car wash was approved on 2/2/2021 and
theoretically the plans met were within the exterior noise limits. Yet, when I walk
along Ogden across the street from this Jet Brite, I pity the near by businesses
and their customers who have to have to deal with the noise level daily. It is
EXCEEDINGLY loud. I do not carry a sound level meter with me, but the decibel
level from the Jet Brite drowns out the the Odgen Avenue traffic noise. I simply
cannot imagine have such a business in B2 nor at the corner of 83rd and Rte
59.
Gail Subsits (Naperville) - As a resident of Aero Estates we strongly oppose this
proposal for many reasons that I'm sure are being addressed. My biggest is:
flooding: we take on way too much water coming from Rt 59 and the two
businesses behind me as it is due to the high street and high parking lots.
Adding a carwash will devastate us. Privacy has been taken away do to the
business behind us removing most of the trees the noise and pollution coming
from Rt 59 is already bad, you will be adding to the noise and pollution I have
been here 25 years and we used to call this home now its a nightmare Why
City of Naperville Page 11 Printed on 9/20/2023
City Council Meeting Minutes September 5, 2023
does wanting to keep our home a home have to be such a struggle? Please do
not build a car wash in back of us. I will never be able to use my yard again. It's
not fair to us, we have been paying our taxes all of these years to have our
home as we once knew it taken from us. Plus why not keep that residential.
Traffic is going to be horrible especially on Saturday and Sunday, there is
already Church traffic from two very large churches, this will make it impossible
to get off of our street and for us to travel to our Church on Sundays Why take it
away. The Street study does not show any of the church traffic for Sundays,
why is that? The hours of operation are every day all day, this doesn't give us
even one day to spend in private in our yards. I don't care how big the fence will
be, my home sits up higher and all the noise and exhaust from the cars, some
of us already have asthma and breathing issues. this will go right to my second
floor, not to mention the night time lights that will be seen from my second floor
all night long. A huge problem will be crime, we as mostly senior citizens are at
fear especially the ones that live by themselves. We live in a safe place now so
please don't change that for us. I will not be able to stay here if you build a
carwash and this is not fair to my family. Is it? Please I beg you to listen to
zoning and to the staff and say no to these people. Tell them to build it behind
their houses. Thank you MaryGail Subsits
