She suggested at least one more meeting in April and in December. Village Trustee Moroney noted that more meetings does not necessarily mean more productivity. He is in favor of keeping the calendar as is. Village Trustee Buchanan would be agreeable to more meetings in April. Village Trustee Andrews does not like taking off six weeks at at time, but does not want to look for things just to fill up open dates. Village Trustee Walker-Peddakotla stated that there could be more meetings in April, but agreed with breaks in August and December. Village Trustee Taglia stated that he has conflicts in April. Village President Abu-Taleb stated that the Supreme Court of the United States takes off two months at a time. He believes there is an adequate amount of meetings, but he is happy to meet more if necessary. Village Manager Pavlicek stated that the calendar is based on Board Protocols and that each December they are required to post the dates that they know they will meet. Additional meetings can always be scheduled at a later time with proper public notice. Village President Abu-Taleb reminded the Trustees that they are policy makers, not Directors of any Village departments. They can also be much more efficient during the Village of Oak Park Page 2 Printed on 1/14/2020 President and Board of Trustees Meeting Minutes December 2, 2019 meetings that are already scheduled.

MOT 19-125 A Motion to Approve Staff’s Recommendation to Overhire Police Officer, Community Service Officer and Firefighter/Paramedic Positions in FY20 Village Manager Pavlicek explained that since the overhire program has been authorized, it has only been used for firefigher/paramedics, as the Village has not had a fully staffed police force. It allows staff to begin the hiring process prior to a pending retirement date to avoid a vacancy in that position. She also discussed police front desk coverage, which is is required to be staffed 24/7. Village Trustee Boutet commented that the the budget would only come into play if the police department was fully staffed. Village Manager Pavlicek reiterated that even though the police are included in the motion, the overhire program has been used mostly for firefighters. Police can be removed from the motion if the Board desires. She explained the circumstances in which there may be more than the budgeted amount of firefighters on staff. Village Trustee Walker-Peddakotla was supportive of removing the police from the motion. Chief of Police La Don Reynolds commented that this has not been utilized for officers, but has been for sergeants and explained the circumstances. It was moved by Village Trustee Walker-Peddakotla, seconded by Village Trustee Andrews, that this Motion be approved. The motion was approved. The roll call on the vote was as follows: AYES: 6- Village President Abu-Taleb, Village Trustee Andrews, Village Trustee Boutet, Village Trustee Buchanan, Village Trustee Moroney, and Village Trustee Taglia NAYS: 1- Village Trustee Walker-Peddakotla ABSENT: 0 D. ORD 19-117 An Ordinance Amending the Fiscal Year 2019 Annual Budget Village Manager Pavlicek commented that these amendments are reclassifications of funds from FY 2019. She gave an overview. Village Trustee Walker-Peddakotla stated it would be helpful to know what amount was budgeted in 2020 for these amendments. Village Trustee Boutet indicated that some of the amendments do not match the actual budget and that this is difficult to understand. CFO Steve Drazner stated that the amounts are only being moved from one account to another account which better Village of Oak Park Page 3 Printed on 1/14/2020 President and Board of Trustees Meeting Minutes December 2, 2019 describes what it is being used for. Village President Abu-Taleb commented that he does not want the public to get the impression that this is inaccurate. He confirmed that the numbers are correct as presented and simply required explanation. It was moved by Village Trustee Moroney, seconded by Village Trustee Andrews, that this Ordinance be adopted. The motion was approved. The roll call on the vote was as follows: AYES: 7- Village President Abu-Taleb, Village Trustee Andrews, Village Trustee Boutet, Village Trustee Buchanan, Village Trustee Moroney, Village Trustee Taglia, and Village Trustee Walker-Peddakotla NAYS: 0 ABSENT: 0 Village President Abu-Taleb stated that it would have been helpful if Village Trustee Boutet discussed this with the CFO prior to the meeting so that less confusion is unnecessarily portrayed to residents and the meeting is more efficient. E. ORD 19-90 An Ordinance Adopting the Budget for All Corporate Purposes of the Village of Oak Park, Cook County, Illinois in Lieu of the Appropriation Ordinance for the Fiscal Year Commencing on the First Day of January, 2020 and Ending on the Thirty-First Day of December, 2020 Village Manager Pavlicek gave an overview of the budget process. Village Trustee Andrews discussed his satisfaction with keeping the tax levy at 3%. Village Manager Pavlicek described the $300,000 in cuts she made as directed by the Board at the November 25 meeting. Village Trustee Andrews spoke about his disappointment in other taxing bodies not being as fiscally responsible. Village Trustee Buchanan asked for clarification regarding the bike program. Village Manager Pavlicek commented that it was removed from the General Fund transfer to the CIP, which is part of the tax levy, and will instead come from the existing bag fees plus what will be collected in 2020. Village Trustee Walker-Peddakotla asked what the balance of the Sustainability Fund is. Village Manager Pavlicek replied that the balance will be approximately $1.8 million at the end of FY 2020. Village Trustee Walker-Peddakotla would have liked to see some solar projects out of this budget cycle and would like more discussions regarding a utility scale solar array. Village Trustee Boutet asked if there was funding for equity training in the budget. Village Manager Pavlicek stated that there is. Village Trustee Boutet noted that there has been insufficient progress regarding equity training as well as sustainability. Village Manager Pavlicek stated that the budget document reflects the direction of the Board. The passing of Board Goals would provide staff more clarity regarding utilization of current resources. Village Trustee Taglia stated that it appears that the Village's levy will add approximately $60 to the average household's tax bill. He is concerned that despite the Village's fiscal Village of Oak Park Page 4 Printed on 1/14/2020 President and Board of Trustees Meeting Minutes December 2, 2019 responsibility, taxes are expected to go up by $500 to $700 based on increased levies from other taxing bodies. CFO Drazner clarified that TIF dollars are equal to $114 million in equalized assessed value (EAV), which is noted on the property tax bill. Tax on that amount at 12% is an average of $500 to $700 per homeowner. Village Trustee Andrews noted that this is a one-time capture but will be compounded after this year. Village Trustee Walker-Peddakotla doesn't agree with water, trash and other fees increasing, as they affect low-income residents more than property taxes. She added that property taxes are a problem beyond Oak Park. There was a discussion regarding parking fines and water shut offs. There was agreement that those topics should come back to the Board. Village Trustee Boutet expressed concern regarding the cuts to the Community Justice Program, Resident Beat Officer office and the Youth Interventionist Program. Saving money on these program now will create bigger costs in the future. She also is disappointed that the Village is not planting more trees, as they are good for the environment. There is opportunity to make cuts elsewhere if the Board were given more information. Village Trustee Andrews commented that the Village is still planting an adequate amount of trees. The Youth Interventionist Program, run by the Township which is passing a 10% levy increase, will have all the funding they need. The Community Justice Program will continue as well. He noted that statements about cutting programs should be accurate. Those programs are not going to end, the Village is simply reducing their funding for programs that they have been told will not end without their contributions. Village Trustee Moroney agreed with Village Trustee Andrews. He thanked staff for their work; balancing priorities is difficult. Village Trustee Buchanan found the budget process fascinating although the delay in plans for the Sustainability Fund has been a disappointment. Village Trustee Walker-Peddakotla stated that not funding these programs is conveying the message that Village government does not value these issues. The moral priorities of the Village are written in the budget document. Village President Abu-Taleb discussed the responsibilities of elected officials to use good fiscal judgement on behalf of the taxpayers. Public safety is his number one priority and he thanked Chief Reynolds for his leadership. In addition, the Board instructed the Village Manager to find funding to support the Housing Center and stay within the 3% increase. He expressed concern to Chief Reynolds that he is giving up $73,000 of his budget and asked if he is comfortable with that. Chief Reynolds stated that the budget originally put forth was based on his knowledge of best practices. However, his department will continue to work diligently to provide the services Oak Park expects and deserves with what is allocated from the Board. Village President Abu-Taleb commented that trustees using social media to undermine each other does not create a cohesive environment at the Board table. In order to provide the service that they need to provide to the Village, they cannot continue to make statements on social media regarding the Board cutting programs that are not their responsibility. It was moved by Village Trustee Andrews, seconded by Village Trustee Walker-Peddakotla, that this Ordinance be adopted. The motion was approved.

ORD 19-78 The Village of Oak Park’s Tax Year 2019 Property Tax Levy Ordinance It was moved by Village Trustee Andrews, seconded by Village Trustee Walker-Peddakotla, that this Ordinance be adopted. The motion was approved.

ORD 19-126 An Ordinance Establishing a Temporary Moratorium on the Location, Siting and Acceptance of Permit Applications of Cannabis Business and On-Site Consumption of Cannabis Establishments in the Village of Oak Park Village Manager Pavlicek stated that at the request of Village President Abu-Taleb and Village Trustee Taglia, staff moved forward on an item they intended to develop in January. The purpose of the moratorium is to allow for the Plan Commission to hold a Public Hearing in regards to recommending text amendments to the Zoning Code. Any recommendations would be brought back to the Board. In addition, there is a series of dates in which applications are being accepted by the State and in an abundance of caution, the Village needs to indicate to the State that Oak Park has not fully vetted its zoning regulations. Judith Alexander, representing The North Avenue District (TNAD). Ms. Alexander spoke about her and others' desire for recreational cannabis as a special use. Village Trustee Andrews recognized a student regarding a report she wrote on criminal justice reform. He is disappointed that the topic of cannabis is before the Board again. He discussed some of the State requirements already in place. It is already going to be Village of Oak Park Page 6 Printed on 1/14/2020 President and Board of Trustees Meeting Minutes December 2, 2019 heavily regulated; he suggested alternatives to control recreational cannabis businesses rather than classifying them as a special use. Village Trustee Moroney asked to what degree the Village can regulate the distance between stores. Director of Development Customer Services Tammie Grossman commented that per State regulations, that distance is 1,500 feet. Village Trustee Moroney asked if the Village can increase that. He would like to see 1.5 miles between stores, which would result in no more than one store on any east-west street and no more than three or four locations Village-wide. He also believes it would be important to be at least 500 to 1,000 feet from any entity that provides services for minors. Village Trustee Boutet stated that special use has a lot to do with traffic flow and other items, which need to be addressed in this case. This should be comparable to what is required for a liquor license. She also discussed concerns similar to Village Trustee Moroney's. She doesn't see the need for another Public Hearing but would like to see recommendations from the Plan Commission. In addition, Village Trustee Boutet suggested that the entire State Law be adopted into the Village Code. Village Trustee Taglia sees the value of seeking further input from the public. He thinks the Village should be mindful of the fact that all of the surrounding communities have adopted a special use approach. He also agrees with Village Trustee Boutet's idea in terms of treating this as they treat alcohol. Village Trustee Walker-Peddakotla commented that there has already been a Public Hearing and the public has had an opportunity to give their input. She supports keeping this as a permitted use and disagrees with the moratorium. Village Trustee Buchanan initially supported special use. However, she doesn't understand why this has to be revisited. She would like to move on and not put this through the process again, but would prefer the special use classification. Village President Abu-Taleb discussed why he supports special use and how permitted use may affect the perimeter areas. The moratorium allows the Village the opportunity to be thoughtful regarding reasonable regulations. In addition, they owe it to TNAD, which is just beginning to thrive. Village Trustee Moroney commented that the State guidelines regarding distance between stores are not strong enough. Village Manager Pavlicek discussed the requirement of a Public Hearing in order to adopt a text amendment. Village Trustee Andrews stated that the State is about to grant 47 licenses in Cook County. If the Village does a moratorium, there is a chance that Oak Park will not get a dispensary, as there are 118 other municipalities that most likely have a plan in place. There are ample protections under existing laws. If there is a business that becomes a nuisance, the Village has the right to withdraw their license. He does not support the moratorium. Village Trustee Boutet clarified that the deadline to apply for a license is January 2. Licenses will not be awarded until May. There is nothing to lose by taking some time to think about this. Applicants do not need a location in order to apply. Village Trustee Walker-Peddakotla expressed concern that those who wish to open a dispensary in Oak Park would be discouraged from even applying for a license with a moratorium in place. Director of Development Customer Services Tammie Grossman Village of Oak Park Page 7 Printed on 1/14/2020 President and Board of Trustees Meeting Minutes December 2, 2019 stated that most of the individuals are looking at multiple locations and are not tying their license to a particular community at this time. The Village still has time prior to issuance of licenses. She stated that staff will get this in front of the Plan Commission early in 2020. Village President Abu-Taleb asked Ms. Alexander if TNAD is opposed to a cannabis store. Ms. Alexander stated that they are not. However, they are concerned with factors that may or may not make them an asset to the area, just like any other business, and would rather they be looked at on a case-by-case basis. Village Trustee Walker-Peddakotla commented that they all have to be mindful of not treating a marijuana dispensary as negative in nature. Ms. Alexander stated that is not the case. Village Trustee Moroney stated that his only concern is the distance between stores. He would like to send this to the Plan Commission with specific instructions to implement a text amendment stating that stores cannot be within 1.5 miles of each other or within 500 to 1,000 feet from an entity that provides services to children. He acknowledged that there are people who are not supportive of marijuana and do not want their children exposed to it. Village President Abu-Taleb agreed. Village Trustee Boutet stated that the Plan Commission has more expertise than this Board in matters such as these and there are other things to consider. She agrees that children should not have exposure to these businesses but does not want to limit the commission regarding what they discuss. Village Trustee Andrews suggested sending this to the Plan Commission with Village Trustee Moroney's request as well as any of their other recommendations, while keeping it within a permitted use classification. Village Trustee Boutet reiterated her comments regarding the need for recommendations from the Plan Commission for reasonable regulations. It was moved by Village Trustee Andrews, seconded by Village Trustee Walker-Peddakotla, that this Ordinance be adopted. The motion was approved. The roll call on the vote was as follows: AYES: 4- Village President Abu-Taleb, Village Trustee Boutet, Village Trustee Moroney, and Village Trustee Taglia NAYS: 3- Village Trustee Andrews, Village Trustee Buchanan, and Village Trustee Walker-Peddakotla ABSENT: 0 It was moved by Village Trustee Moroney, seconded by Village Trustee Andrews, to direct the Plan Commission to bring back recommendations to the Board for a text amendment stating that cannabis stores cannot be within 1.5 miles of each other or within 500 to 1,000 feet from an entity that provides services to children, while keeping it as a permitted use.
