Village Sea! Committee - Recommended Design. Maria Monastero Bueno and Jasmine Gumeau ,Village Seal Committee Co-Chairs gave an update on the recommended design. Background In November 2018, the Village ofSkokie Human Relations Commission began its discussion of the current Village Seal which features Native imagery and has been used since the 1940's. Following public engagement and extensive research, the Village Seal Review Committee concluded that the current Village seal is not an accurate representation of the tribes from the Skokie area, and that the seal is in conflict with how some members of the Native community would like to be represented. Process The Village Seal Committee began its work by surveying community members on potential elements and themes to incorporate into a new seal design. The Committee developed a survey asking individuals to share what they valued about Skokie, what symbols they felt represented Skokie's past, present and future. Following this feedback, the Committee established and issued a Request for Qualifications to solicit artists interested in working on the project. The Committee spent several months working closely with Bumper Lanes and Overbite Studio to review community feedback research municipal seal examples and establish preferences on artistic style, color and potential elements to include in the seal design. Recommended Design Following presentation of an initial draft design and consideration of community feedback, the Committee is recommending a design that incorporate the following elements/features and updates. Skokie Spirit Flame, Cattails, Wabskoki, Colors, Font, and Stained Glass style Updates to the Village Code The second reading and adoption will be on March 17, 2025. 625031  Return to Agenda 13845 Meeting of the Mayor and Board of Trustees Monday, March 3, 2025 Page Three Plan Commission.

Since becoming an eligible community in 1974, Skokie has received over $25 million in CDBG funding to support low- and moderate-income residents through various initiatives such as housing rehabilitation, infrastructure improvements, job creation, and public services. The CDBG program is important because it allows local decision-making and direct participation to address specific needs within Its own community. To mark the 50th anniversary, HUD has awarded Skokie with a certificate of recognition, which will be presented at the Village Board meeting on Monday, March 17, 2025. To commemorate this event, the Village has invited Federal elected officials and organizations that have benefited from CDBG funding to attend the meeting, where highlights of the program will be shown with photos and a video. A brief reception will follow.

This project includes roadway reconstruction, bridge replacement, utility improvements, geometric improvements, traffic signal upgrades, installation of a multi-use path and lighting improvements, In addition, the Village previously entered into a contract with TranSystems Corporation for the design of Village ofSkokie identifiers on the new bridge and within the Old Orchard Road infield. The proposed identifiers are as shown on the attached. The original design contract contemplated the identifier improvements being included in ihe roadway and bridge construction contract, Ultimately, the County elected to not include the identifiers in the contract and asked the Village to coordinate with the State separately. We still anticipate the identifiers being completed in conjunction with the existmg contract, however we now need to coordinate with the State and obtain the required permits separately. The identifiers will increase the visibility of the Village and assist in wayfmding for motorists. The first identifier will be on the new Old Orchard Road bridge facing southbound 1-94. There will also be a second identifier in the infieid of the northbound I"94 exit ramp at Old Orchard Road. The proposed change order is for $22,567 and increases the total design cost to $63,939. Thus> it is recommended that the Mayor and Board of Trustees autliorize the execution of the change order for Engineering Services associated with the Old Orchard Road Identifiers as described herein. Please present this recommendation to the Mayor and Board of Trustees at the March 17, 2025 regularly scheduled meeting. Please contact me if there are any questions.

Lockerby, Village Manager FROM: Nicholas ^. Wyatt, A^stant Village Manager DATE: March 7, 2025 SUBJECT: Adoption of Ratified FOP Contract The Local Lodge #68 of the Fraternal Order of Police (FOP), which covers 90 Skokie Police Officers, recently ratified a Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) that was negotiated between Village and Union representatives. A copy of the proposed CBA is attached below. Nationwide, police recruitment remains a challenge, but the new contract will continue to make the Skokie Police Department an appealing place to work, offering competitive salaries and benefits. In summary, the contract is for a term of three years, commencing May 1, 2025 and ending April 30, 2028. Wage adjustments in the CBA include 3% on May 1,2025,3% on May 1, 2026 and 3% on May 1 , 2027. Equity adjustments include 0.25% on November 1, 2025 and 0.75% on November 1, 2026. Additionally, the Village will add a new annual stipend of $1,200 for police officers who serve as evidence technicians (ET). The job of an ET is extremely difficult, requiring substantial training and tedious crime scene work. The new stipend will reward the work these individuals do and incentivize the best officers to take on this important responsibility. It is respectfully requested that the Village Board adopt the proposed CBA at the March 17, 2025 Board meeting. In the interim, if you have questions regarding any of the information provided above, please let me know. #625169  Return to Memo AGREEMENT Between VILLAGE OF SKOKIE And ILLINOIS FRATERNAL ORDER OF POLICE LABOR COUNCIL, REPRESENTING SKOKIE POLICE OFFICERS 2025-2028 {00870819.DOCX v. 1 }  Return to Memo TABLE OF CONTENTS ARTICLE I RECOGNITION AND REPRESENTATION ............................................................2 Section 1.1.

It is the intent and purpose of this Agreement to set forth the parties’ entire agreement with respect to the rates of pay, hours of employment, fringe benefits, and other conditions of employment that will be in effect during the term of this Agreement for employees covered by this Agreement; to prevent interruptions of work and interference with the operations of the Village; to encourage and improve efficiency and productivity; and to provide procedures for the prompt and peaceful adjustment of grievances as provided herein. NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows: {00870819.DOCX v. 1 }  Return to Memo ARTICLE I RECOGNITION AND REPRESENTATION Section 1.1. Recognition. The Village recognizes the Council as the sole and exclusive bargaining representative for all sworn full-time peace officers (hereinafter referred to as “officers” or “employees”), but excluding all sworn peace officers in the rank of sergeant and above, any employees excluded from the definition of “peace officer” as defined in Section 3(k) of the Illinois Public Labor Relations Act, and all other managerial, supervisory, confidential and professional employees as defined by the Act, as amended. Section 1.2. Council’s Duty of Fair Representation. The Council agrees to fulfill its duty to fairly represent all employees in the bargaining unit. {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 2  Return to Memo ARTICLE II NON-DISCRIMINATION In accordance with applicable law, neither the Village nor the Council shall discriminate against any employee covered by this Agreement because of race, sex, age, religion, creed, color, national origin, or Council membership. Other than Council membership, any dispute concerning the interpretation and application of this paragraph shall be processed through the appropriate federal or state agency or court rather than through the grievance procedure set forth in this Agreement. {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 3  Return to Memo ARTICLE III DUES CHECKOFF, FAIR SHARE, AND COUNCIL RIGHTS Section 3.1. Dues Checkoff. During the term of this Agreement the Village will deduct from each employee’s first paycheck each month the uniform, regular monthly Council dues for each employee in the bargaining unit who has filed with the Village a lawfully written authorization form and shall forward such amount to the Council by the 10th day of the month following the month in which the deduction was made, together with a list of employees from whom deductions were made. The actual dues amount deducted, as determined by the Council, shall be uniform for each employee in order to ease the Village’s burden in administering this provision. The Council may change the fixed uniform dollar amount once each year during the life of this Agreement by giving the Village HR Director at least thirty (30) days’ written notice of any change in the amount of the uniform dues to be deducted. If an employee has no earnings or insufficient earnings to cover the amount of the dues deduction, the Council shall be responsible for collection of dues. The Council agrees to refund to the employee any amounts paid to the Council in error on account of this dues deduction provision. Section 3.2. Indemnification. The Council shall indemnify and hold harmless the Village, its elected representatives, officers, administrators, agents and employees from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, complaints, suits or other forms of liability (monetary or otherwise) that arise out of or by reason of any action taken or not taken by the Village for the purpose of complying with the provisions of this Article, or in reliance on any written checkoff authorization furnished under any of such provisions. {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 4  Return to Memo Section 3.3. Council Use of Bulletin Boards. The Village will make available space on a bulletin board for the posting of official Council notices of a non-political, non-inflammatory nature. The Council will limit the posting of Council notices to such bulletin board. {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 5  Return to Memo ARTICLE IV LABOR-MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE At the request of either party, a Council representative and the Police Chief or their designees shall meet at least quarterly to discuss matters of mutual concern that do not involve negotiations. The Council representative, or his designee, may invite other bargaining unit members (not to exceed two) to attend such meetings. The Police Chief, or his designee, may invite other Village representatives (not to exceed two) to attend such meetings. The party requesting the meeting shall submit a written agenda of the items it wishes to discuss at least three days prior to the date of the meeting. This Section shall not be applicable to any matter that is being processed pursuant to the grievance procedure set forth in this Agreement. {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 6  Return to Memo ARTICLE V GRIEVANCE PROCEDURE Section 5.1. Definition. A “grievance” is defined as a dispute or difference of opinion raised by an employee or the Council against the Village involving an alleged violation of an express provision of this Agreement except that any dispute or difference of opinion concerning a matter or issue subject to the jurisdiction of the Skokie Police and Fire Commission shall not be considered a grievance under this Agreement unless otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement. Section 5.2. Procedure. The parties acknowledge that it is usually most desirable for an employee and his immediate supervisor to resolve problems through free and informal communications. If, however, the informal process does not resolve the matter, the grievance will be processed as follows: STEP 1: Any employee who has a grievance shall submit the grievance in writing on a grievance form, a copy of which is attached as Appendix A, to the employee’s (in most cases, a Sergeant) immediate supervisor, specifically indicating that the matter is a grievance under this Agreement. The grievance shall contain a complete statement of the facts, the provision or provisions of this Agreement which are alleged to have been violated, and the relief requested. All grievances must be presented no later than ten (10) calendar days from the date of the first occurrence of the matter giving rise to the grievance or within ten (10) calendar days after the employee, through the use of reasonable diligence, could have obtained knowledge of the first occurrence of the event giving rise to the grievance. The immediate supervisor shall render a written response to the grievant within seven (7) calendar days after the grievance is presented. STEP 2: If the grievance is not settled at Step 1 and the employee wishes to appeal the grievance to Step 2 of the grievance procedure, it shall be submitted in writing to the Deputy Chief designated for this purpose by the Village or his designee within seven (7) calendar days after receipt of the Village’s answer at Step 1. The grievance shall specifically state the basis upon which the grievant believes the grievance was improperly denied at the previous step in the grievance procedure. The Deputy Chief, or his designee, shall provide a written answer to the {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 7  Return to Memo grievant within seven (7) calendar days after the grievance is appealed to Step 2. STEP 3: If the grievance is not settled at Step 2 and the employee wishes to appeal the grievance to Step 3 of the grievance procedure, it shall be submitted in writing to the Police Chief within seven (7) calendar days after receipt of the Village’s answer at Step 2. The grievance shall specifically state the basis upon which the grievant believes the grievance was improperly denied at the previous step in the grievance procedure. The Police Chief, or his designee, shall investigate the grievance and, in the course of such investigation, shall offer to discuss the grievance within seven (7) calendar days with the grievant and an authorized representative of the Council at a time mutually agreeable to the parties. If no settlement of the grievance is reached, the Police Chief, or his designee, shall provide a written answer to the grievant and the Council within seven (7) calendar days following their meeting. STEP 4: If the grievance is not settled at Step 3 and the Council desires to appeal, it shall be referred by the Council in writing to the Village Manager within seven (7) calendar days after receipt of the Village’s answer at Step 3. Thereafter, the Village Manager or his designee and other appropriate individual(s) as desired by the Village Manager, shall meet with the grievant and a Council representative within fourteen (14) calendar days of receipt of the Council’s appeal, if at all possible. If no agreement is reached, the Village Manager or designee shall submit a written answer to the grievant and Council within seven (7) calendar days following the meeting. Section 5.3. Arbitration. If the grievance is not settled in Step 4 and the Council wishes to appeal the grievance from Step 4 of the grievance procedure, the Council may refer the grievance to arbitration, as described below, within twenty-one (21) calendar days of receipt of the Village’s written answer as provided to the Council at Step 4: (a) The parties shall attempt to agree upon an arbitrator within seven (7) calendar days after receipt of the notice of referral. In the event the parties are unable to agree upon the arbitrator within said seven (7) day period, the parties shall jointly request the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service or the American Arbitration Association to submit a panel of five (5) arbitrators. Each party retains the right to reject one panel in its entirety and request that a new panel be submitted. Both the Village and the Council shall have the right to strike two (2) names from the panel. The party requesting arbitration shall strike the first two names; the other party shall then strike two names. The person remaining shall be the arbitrator. {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 8  Return to Memo (b) The arbitrator shall be notified of his/her selection and shall be requested to set a time and place for the hearing, subject to the availability of Council and Village representatives. (c) The Village and the Council shall have the right to request the arbitrator to require the presence of witnesses or documents. The Village and the Council retain the right to employ legal counsel. (d) The arbitrator shall submit his/her decision in writing within thirty (30) calendar days following the close of the hearing or the submission of briefs by the parties, whichever is later. (e) More than one grievance may be submitted to the same arbitrator where both parties mutually agree in writing. (f) The fees and expenses of the arbitrator and the cost of a written transcript, if any, shall be divided equally between the Village and the Council; provided, however, that each party shall be responsible for compensating its own representatives and witnesses. Section 5.4. Limitations on Authority of Arbitrator. The arbitrator shall have no right to amend, modify, nullify, ignore, add to, or subtract from the provisions of this Agreement. The arbitrator shall consider and decide only the question of fact as to whether there has been a violation, misinterpretation or misapplication of the specific provisions of this Agreement. The arbitrator shall be empowered to determine the issue raised by the grievance as submitted in writing at the Second Step. The arbitrator shall have no authority to make a decision on any issue not so submitted or raised. The arbitrator shall be without power to make any decision or award which is contrary to or inconsistent with, in any way, applicable laws, or of rules and regulations of administrative bodies that have the force and effect of law. The arbitrator shall not in any way limit or interfere with the powers, duties and responsibilities of the Village under law and applicable court decisions. Any decision or award of the arbitrator rendered within the limitations of this Section 5.4 shall be final and binding upon the Village, the Council and the employees covered by this Agreement. Section 5.5. Time Limit for Filing. No grievance shall be entertained or processed unless it is submitted at Step 1 within ten (10) calendar days after the first occurrence of the {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 9  Return to Memo event giving rise to the grievance or within ten (10) calendar days after the employee, through the use of reasonable diligence, could have obtained knowledge of the first occurrence of the event giving rise to the grievance. If a grievance is not presented by the employee within the time limits set forth above, it shall be considered “waived” and may not be pursued further. If a grievance is not appealed to the next step within the specified time limit or any agreed extension thereof, it shall be considered settled on the basis of the Village’s last answer. If the Village does not answer a grievance or an appeal thereof within the specified time limits, the aggrieved employee may elect to treat the grievance as denied at the step and immediately appeal the grievance to the next step. The parties may by mutual agreement in writing extend any of the time limits set forth in this Article. Section 5.6. Miscellaneous. No member of the bargaining unit shall have any authority to respond to a grievance being processed in accordance with the grievance procedure set forth in this Article. Moreover, no action, statement, agreement, settlement, or representation made by any member of the bargaining unit shall impose any obligation or duty or be considered to be authorized by or binding upon the Village unless and until the Village has agreed thereto in writing. {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 10  Return to Memo ARTICLE VI NO STRIKE-NO LOCKOUT Section 6.1. No Strike. Neither the Council nor any officers, agents or employees covered by this Agreement will instigate, promote, sponsor, engage in, or condone any strike, sympathy strike, slowdown, sitdown, concerted stoppage of work, concerted refusal to perform overtime, concerted, abnormal and unapproved enforcement procedures or policies or work to the rule situation, mass absenteeism, or any other intentional interruption or disruption of the operations of the Village, regardless of the reason for so doing. Any or all employees who violate any of the provisions of this Article maybe discharged or otherwise disciplined by the Village. Each employee who holds the position of representative, officer or steward of the Council occupies a position of special trust and responsibility in maintaining and bringing about compliance with the provisions of this Article. In addition, in the event of a violation of this Section of this Article the Council agrees to inform its members of their obligations under this Agreement and to direct them to return to work. Section 6.2. No Lockout. The Village will not lock out any employees during the term of this Agreement as a result of a labor dispute with the Council. Section 6.3. Penalty. The only matter which may be made the subject of a grievance concerning disciplinary action imposed for an alleged violation of Section 6.1 is whether or not the employee actually engaged in such prohibited conduct. The failure to confer a penalty in any instance is not a waiver of such right in any other instance nor is it a precedent. Section 6.4. Judicial Restraint. Nothing contained herein shall preclude the Village or the Council from obtaining judicial restraint and damages in the event the other party violates this Article. {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 11  Return to Memo ARTICLE VII SENIORITY, LAYOFF AND RECALL Section 7.1. Definition of Seniority. Seniority shall be based on the length of time from the last date of beginning continuous full-time employment as a sworn peace officer in the Police Department of the Village. Conflicts of seniority shall be determined on the basis of the order of the officers on the Fire and Police Commission hiring list, with the officer higher on the list being the more senior. Seniority shall not accrue during any unpaid leave of absence in excess of thirty (30) consecutive days and in such event the employee’s seniority date shall be adjusted accordingly. Section 7.2. Probationary Period. All new employees and those hired after loss of seniority shall be considered probationary employees until they complete a probationary period of twenty-four (24) months of work. If a new hire has successfully completed training in accordance with the Illinois Law Enforcement Training Board as an Illinois State Certified Law Enforcement Officer prior to employment with the Village, and has not been out of law enforcement for a period of more than two (2) years, then the Village Board of Fire and Police Commissioners may, at their sole discretion, lessen the period of probation to eighteen (18) months on a case-by-case basis. During an employee’s probationary period the employee may be suspended, laid off, or terminated at the sole discretion of the Village. No grievance shall be presented or entertained in connection with the suspension, layoff, or termination of a probationary employee. There shall be no seniority among probationary employees. Upon successful completion of the probationary period, an employee shall acquire seniority which shall be retroactive to his last date of hire with the Village in a position covered by this Agreement. {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 12  Return to Memo Section 7.3. Seniority List. On or before January 1 each year, the Village will provide the Council with a seniority list setting forth each employee’s seniority date. The Village shall not be responsible for any errors in the seniority list unless such errors are brought to the attention of the Village in writing within fourteen (14) calendar days after the Council’s receipt of the list. Section 7.4. Layoff. The Village, in its discretion, shall determine whether layoffs are necessary. If it is determined that layoffs are necessary, employees covered by this Agreement will be laid off in accordance with their length of service as provided in Illinois Statute (65 ILCS 5/10-2.1-18). Except in an emergency, no layoff will occur without at least fourteen (14) calendar days’ notification to the Council. The Village agrees to consult the Council, upon request, and afford the Council an opportunity to propose alternatives to the layoff, though such consultation shall not be used to delay the layoff. Section 7.5. Recall. Employees who are laid off shall be placed on a recall list for a period of three (3) years. If there is a recall, employees who are still on the recall list shall be recalled,’ in the inverse order of their layoff. Employees who are eligible for recall shall be given fourteen (14) calendar days’ notice of recall and notice of recall shall be sent to the employee by certified or registered mail with, a copy to the Council, provided that the employee must notify the Police Chief or his designee of his intention to return to work within three (3) days after receiving notice of recall. The Village shall be deemed to have fulfilled its obligations by mailing the recall notice by certified mail, return receipt requested, to the mailing address last provided by the employee, it being the obligation and responsibility of the employee to provide {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 13  Return to Memo the Police Chief or his designee with his latest mailing address. If an employee fails to timely respond to a recall notice his name shall be removed from the recall list. Section 7.6. Termination of Seniority. Seniority and the employment relationship shall be terminated for all purposes if the employee: (a) quits; (b) is discharged for just cause (probationary employees without cause); (c) retires (or is retired should the Village adopt and implement a legal mandatory retirement age); (d) falsifies the reason for a leave of absence, or is found to be working during a leave of absence without the written approval of the Village Manager; (e) fails to report to work at the conclusion of an authorized leave of absence or vacation; (f) is laid off and fails to report for work within two (2) working days after the established date for the employee’s return to work; (g) is laid off for a period in excess of three (3) years; (h) does not perform work for the Village for a period in excess of twelve (12) months; provided, however, this provision shall not be applicable to absences due to military service, established work related injury compensable under workers’ compensation and/or duty related disability pension, or a layoff where the employee has recall rights; or (i) is absent for two (2) consecutive working days without notifying the Village. Employees who establish to the Village’s satisfaction that their absence under subsections 6(e) and (f) or their failure to notify under subsection 6(i) was clearly due to circumstances beyond their control shall not be terminated under this Section. {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 14  Return to Memo ARTICLE VIII HOURS OF WORK AND OVERTIME Section 8.1. Application of Article. This Article is intended only as a basis for calculating overtime payments, and nothing in this Article or Agreement shall be construed as a guarantee of hours of work per day, per week, or per work cycle.

Employees are only eligible for the three (3) hour call-in pay described herein in emergency situations when they are ordered back to work. This Section shall not apply to training or tactical unit exercises but shall apply to instances when the tactical unit is activated to respond to an actual emergency. Section 8.8. Compensatory Time. An employee shall have the option of accruing up to a maximum of one hundred twenty (120) hours of compensatory time in lieu of overtime pay. While employee wishes will be considered, the scheduling of compensatory time shall be subject to the paramount needs of the Department as determined by the employee’s unit commander. Accrued compensatory time shall, if practicable, be used within the same fiscal year in which it has been accrued. Any hours above forty (40) hours as of the end of the last pay period in October shall be paid off in November at the employee’s straight-time hourly rate of pay as of October 31. If all compensatory time cannot be scheduled in the fiscal year, up to the first forty (40) hours shall be carried over to the next fiscal year and any hours above forty (40) hours as of the end of the last pay period in April shall be paid off in May at the employee’s straight- time hourly rate of pay as of April 30.

Sick Leave. Each employee shall be advanced eight (8) sick leave days for use during the calendar year and said days shall not be accumulative. Sick leave may be used for illness, injury, maternity, doctor’s appointments, or for serious illness or injury in the employee’s immediate family. Immediate family shall be defined as the employee’s spouse, children, parents, mother-in-law, father-in-law, brothers, sisters and grandparents. In case of serious illness in the immediate family, up to three (3) days of sick leave may be approved by the Police Chief or his designee. An additional two (2) days may be approved by the Village Manager. In the event an employee is unable to work due to illness, he must inform his supervisor prior to the start of the scheduled workday. Failure to inform the supervisor each day of absence, or agreed intervals in the case of an extended illness, will result in loss of pay. Employees will comply with such reporting rules as may be established by the Police Chief. The Village retains the right to take corrective steps to deal with abuse of sick leave or if an employee has prolonged and/or frequent and regular absences which hinder the carrying out of their responsibilities. Such corrective steps may include medical consultations, informal or formal disciplinary action, including dismissal. Sick leave, if available, must be used for the first three (3) working days of an employee’s absence due to illness, sickness or injury. Emergency leave may only be used commencing with the fourth consecutive working day an employee is absent due to sickness, illness or injury. Effective January 1, 2009, the number of sick leave days advanced to {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 18  Return to Memo each employee for use during calendar year 2009 shall be eight (8) since the average number of sick leave days used during calendar year 2008 by bargaining unit members who were employed for the entire calendar year 2008 was 5.0 days or less. Effective January 1, 2010, the number of sick leave days advanced to each employee for use during calendar year 2010 shall be eight (8) if the average number of sick leave days used during the preceding calendar year by bargaining unit members who were employed for the entire calendar year 2009 was 5.0 days or less.

Funeral Leave. In the event of a death in the employee’s immediate family, the employee may be granted up to three (3) days leave of absence without loss of pay for the purpose of attending the funeral.

Any compensation which the employee receives for jury duty or jury service shall not be subtracted from the employee’s regular wages. Section 9.4. Military Leave. Military leave shall be in accordance with State and Federal law, and additional provisions as may be set forth in the Village’s Personnel Manual from time to time. Section 9.5. Educational Leave.

Section 9.6. Non-Employment Elsewhere. A leave of absence will not be granted to enable an employee to try for or accept employment elsewhere or for self-employment. Any employee who engages in employment elsewhere (including self-employment) while on any leave of absence as provided above may be immediately terminated by the Village unless such employment has been approved in advance by the Village Manager prior to the commencement of the leave of absence. Section 9.7. Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993.

Emergency leave may not be arbitrarily and unreasonably denied. Emergency leave shall not be granted for personal reasons, or for routinely scheduled medical, dental or optical appointments. Such absences may be charged to compensatory time. {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 23  Return to Memo Section 10.2. Emergency Leave Days. Emergency leave days used shall be deducted from the maximum accrual based on the employee’s years of service. Section 10.3. Emergency Leave. The Chief or designee may grant emergency leave taking into consideration length of service of the employee; past performance of duties; previous use of emergency leave; attendance; ability of the operating unit to absorb work of the employee without the addition of new personnel; and such other factors as will give equitable consideration to the interest of the employee and grant additional emergency leave to a maximum of one year. Section 10.4. Emergency Leave. The Chief or designee may deny the emergency leave or pay to an employee for unexcused absence for excessive intermittent or excessive regular absences because of illness or physical inability to perform the assigned duties of his position. Section 10.5. Emergency Leave. Emergency leave shall not be granted for injuries or illness resulting from employment in any other business, position, or occupation. Section 10.6. Disability Benefits. Employees who are injured on the job shall be eligible for disability benefits in accordance with applicable state law. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, no paid sick leave days will be accrued or earned while on a work- related disability leave and no vacation days or holidays will be accrued or earned after the first year on disability leave. {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 24  Return to Memo ARTICLE XI VACATIONS Section 11.1. Eligibility. Annual vacation allowances are based on the number of completed years of continuous service. The annual anniversary date of the most recent start date as a continuous full-time employee shall be the basis of calculating the length of eligible service, for purposes of this Section only. The annual vacation allowances for service periods with the Village are: Years of Service Annual Earnings 1st year to 5th anniversary 10 working days 6th year to 12th anniversary 15 working days 13th year to 18th anniversary 20 working days 19th year to 23rd anniversary 25 working days 24th year and over 30 working days No probationary employee shall be eligible to use accrued vacation until such employee has completed at least 6 months of employment. Section 11.2. Vacation Accrual. Vacation hours start to accrue with the first payroll period of employment and each subsequent payroll period, for which there is a minimum of sixty (60) paid hours. Inclusive of paid hours are the actual time worked plus, vacation, holiday, authorized sick/emergency leave, compensatory time and other categories of authorized leave “with pay.” Vacation hours may also accrue while an employee is off work due to a work-related injury/illness or other authorized unpaid leave of absence which specifically permits continued leave accruals. Vacation hours do not accrue to an employee while on disability leave, authorized leave “without pay” where leave accruals cease, or workers’ compensation absences over one (1) year. For the purposes of this Article only (excluding Section 11.4) full-time employment by the Village in a position not covered by this Agreement which immediately {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 25  Return to Memo precedes employment in a position covered by this Agreement shall be counted in determining the number of working days of vacation per year that an employee is eligible to receive. Section 11.3. Vacation Pay. Vacation pay shall be paid at the rate of the employee’s regular straight-time hourly rate of pay in effect for the employee’s regular job classification on the payday immediately preceding the employee’s vacation. Section 11.4. Vacation Scheduling. Vacations shall be scheduled insofar as practicable at times desired by each employee, with the determination of preference with each work unit being made on the basis of an employee’s seniority as defined in Article VII, Section 7.1. It is expressly understood that the final right to designate vacation periods and the maximum number of employee(s) who may be on vacation at any time is exclusively reserved by the Police Chief in order to insure the orderly performance of the services provided by the Village. Section 11.5. Limitation on Accumulation of Vacation. Earned vacation shall normally be taken within one year after it is earned. Employees may have accruals of vacation leave up to an amount equal to one-and-one-half times the employee’s annual earnings based on their length of service (e.g., three (3) weeks for two (2) weeks annual earnings, four and one half (4 1/2) weeks for three (3) weeks annual earnings, etc.). Vacation hours cease to accrue biweekly when the individual employee’s maximum accrual limit is reached. Section 11.6. Pay for Earned but Unused Vacation Upon Termination. Except with respect to an employee covered by Section 11.5 above, if at time of termination an employee has earned but unused vacation time, said vacation time shall be paid at the employee’s rate of pay at time of termination. In the event of death, any vacation earned but unused shall be paid to the designated beneficiary of the deceased employee. Except as provided in this Section, there shall be no salary payment made in lieu of vacation. {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 26  Return to Memo ARTICLE XII HOLIDAYS In lieu of holidays, employees covered by this Agreement shall receive nine (9) days off per fiscal year. Effective May 1, 2023, employees covered by this Agreement shall receive ten (10) days off per fiscal year. Said days accrue when the actual holiday designated below occurs. The holidays are as follows: New Year’s Day MLK Day* President’s Day Memorial Day July 4th Labor Day Thanksgiving Day Day After Thanksgiving Christmas Eve Christmas Day * Effective May 1, 2023 Holidays will be prorated for new hires and for separations (including retirements) based on the actual date of the hire/separation in relation to the actual holiday. Thus, if an employee uses a day off under this Section before the day accrues and then separates from Village service for any reason, the employee shall be obligated to repay the Village for the day(s), the amount of which may be deducted from the employee’s paycheck. (E.g., in 2022, if an employee takes nine days off between January 1 and December 20, and resigns effective December 20, the employee would owe the Village two day’s pay, since the employee’s eighth and nineth day off would not accrue until Christmas Day occurs. Similarly, if a new employee is hired on July 5, such employee will only accrue five (5) days for use during the calendar year.) Days off accrued under this section are to be scheduled based on the employee’s request and with the approval of the Police Chief or his designee. In order to be eligible to receive pay for any of the up to ten (10) scheduled days off, the employee must work his full scheduled day {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 27  Return to Memo before and after the scheduled day off unless proof of sickness or excusable absence is established to the satisfaction of the Police Chief. Unused days off shall be forfeited without compensation; there shall be no carryover from one fiscal year to the next. When an employee is called in from his regularly scheduled day off to work on the actual day of the holiday, the employee shall be paid time and one-half his regular straight-time hourly rate of pay for all hours worked on said holiday outside of the employee’s regularly scheduled hours of work. {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 28  Return to Memo ARTICLE XIII SALARIES AND OTHER COMPENSATION Section 13.1.

New employees may, at the Village’s sole option, be hired at Step C if they have both: 1) successfully completed the Police Academy prior to being hired by the Skokie Police Department; and 2) completed two or more years of prior law enforcement experience. Prior law enforcement experience shall only include full time, continuous experience, and the employee must not have had a break in service of more than six (6) months prior to being hired by the Skokie Police Department.

Employees who are started at Step C will advance to Step D upon successful completion of 12 months of employment. To be eligible for step advancement the employee must meet departmental standards during the prior evaluation period. An employee shall be eligible to advance to Step F+ or H+ only upon completing at least one year at Step F (for employees hired before April 1, 2023) or Step H (for employees hired on or after April 1, 2023) and after being recommended for Step F+ or H+ based on sustained above average performance during the prior evaluation period. Receipt of F+ or H+ for a given year does not guarantee that the employee will receive Step F+ or H+ in the following year.

Comprehensive Medical/Dental Program. The comprehensive medical insurance program (including HMO’s) and dental insurance program that was in effect when this Agreement was ratified shall be continued during the remainder of the term of this Agreement; provided, however, the Village retains the right to change insurance carriers, HMO’s, benefit levels, or to self-insure as it deems appropriate, so long as the new basic coverage and basic benefits are substantially similar to those which predated this Agreement. Employees may elect single or family coverage in one of the health plans offered by the Village during the enrollment period established by the Village. The employee shall pay 14% of the premium or cost for single or family coverage, whichever is applicable, for the plan selected and said amount shall be deducted from the employee’s paycheck.

The Village retains the right to change insurance carriers and/or to self-insure this benefit as long as the $45,000 is maintained. Section 14.3. Cost Containment. The Village reserves the right to maintain or institute cost containment measures relative to insurance coverage so long as the basic level of insurance benefits remains substantially the same. Such changes may include, but are not limited to, {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 34  Return to Memo mandatory second opinions for elective surgery, pre-admission and continuing admission review, prohibition on weekend admissions except in emergency situations, bounty clause, and mandatory out-patient elective surgery for certain designated surgical procedures. Section 14.4. Terms of Policies to Govern. The extent of coverage under the insurance policies referred to in Section 14.1 of this Article shall be governed by the terms and conditions set forth in said policies. Any questions concerning coverage shall be resolved in accordance with the terms and conditions in said policy and shall not be subject to the grievance procedure set forth in this Agreement; provided, however any employee who has a question concerning coverage may present it to the Village’s HR Director and the HR Director, in turn, shall make appropriate inquiry and advise the employee of the status of the matter. Section 14.5. Right to Maintain Coverage While on Unpaid Leave or on Layoff.

If approved by a simple majority of bargaining unit members, the Union will have the ability to increase the amount deducted once per calendar year. The Union will be responsible for notifying the Village Finance Director of this increase. All contributions to the RHS plan shall be made as provided by this agreement and in accordance with applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 35  Return to Memo and related rulings. All such deductions shall be contributed by the Employer to the Plan Administrator for the RHS plan for deposit with the Trustee of the Plan. Bargaining unit members shall be responsible for RHS plan administrative fees. This one percent payroll deduction will not be deemed to decrease a bargaining unit member’s annual salary as set forth in Section 13.1 Salaries, of this agreement that is used in determining the amount of a bargaining unit member’s pension. The purpose of this section is to establish an employee-funded post- retirement medical account at no cost to the Village that can be used by the employee following separation of service from active duty to pay for eligible medical expenses. Illinois Public Pension Fund Association (IPPFA) is the vendor the Union selected. The Union shall indemnify and hold harmless the Village and their representatives and agents from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, complaints, suits or other forms of liability (monetary or otherwise) that arise out of or by reason of any action taken by the Union and/or the plan administrator selected by the Union to administer the Retirement Health Savings Program to implement the retiree health saving program. {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 36  Return to Memo ARTICLE XV MANAGEMENT RIGHTS Except as specifically modified by other articles of this Agreement, the Council recognizes the exclusive right of the Village to make and implement decisions with respect to the operation and management of its operations in all respects.

Within fourteen (14) calendar days of receipt of the report from the Safety Committee, or a minority of the Committee, the Police Chief or his designee shall set forth in writing his response to the report and recommendations. Matters subject to review by the Accident Review Board shall not be subject to review by the Safety Committee.

Section 17.3. Application of Agreement to U.S. Customs Unit and Other Special Assignment Employees. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, officers who are assigned to U.S. Customs or to any other governmental or inter-governmental agency having an independent law enforcement authority or basis of jurisdiction, and officers assigned to perform law enforcement functions under the partial direction of another governmental entity shall be subject for the duration of such assignment to the practices, policies, procedures and directives which are generally applicable to officers assigned to that agency or which are applied pursuant to the authority of the other governmental entity, even though such practices, policies, procedures and directive may be inconsistent or in conflict with the provisions of this Agreement. The application of such practices, policies, procedures and directives shall not be subject to the grievance and arbitration procedures of this Agreement. Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing, the practices, policies, procedures and directives of U.S. Customs applicable to hours of work and overtime shall be deemed to supersede inconsistent or contrary provisions of Article VIII (Hours of Work and Overtime) of this Agreement. {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 39  Return to Memo Section 17.4. Precedence of Agreement. If there is any conflict between the specific provisions of this Agreement and the specific provisions of any Village ordinance or the specific provisions contained in the Village’s Personnel Policy and Procedure Manual which may be in effect from time to time, the specific terms of this Agreement, for its duration, shall take precedence. Section 17.5. Bill of Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to preclude the applicability of the Peace Officer Bill of Rights as set forth in 50 ILCS 725/1 et seq., but said Bill of Rights shall not be incorporated herein by reference. Furthermore, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to waive employees’ Weingarten rights pursuant to the Illinois Public Labor Relations Act. Section 17.6. Drug and Alcohol Testing. In order to help provide a safe work environment and to protect the public by insuring that police officers have the physical stamina and emotional stability to perform their assigned duties, the Village may require employees to submit to a random urinalysis test and/or other appropriate test up to four times per year per employee at a time and place designated by the Village. In addition, drug and alcohol testing may also be required where there is reasonable suspicion for such testing or where the employee is involved in a motor vehicle accident where the following is present: 1. A fatality occurs; 2. The employee receives a citation; 3. An injury occurs requiring treatment at a medical facility; or 4. Any vehicle is towed away from the scene of the accident because the vehicle sustained damage that renders the vehicle inoperable (e.g. not immediately repairable at the scene). For reasonable suspicion for such testing, the Village will require at least one supervisor (two supervisors when practicable) to observe and to confirm the behavior of the employee prior {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 40  Return to Memo to the order to undergo “reasonable suspicion testing”. The Village will also provide the employee tested a written statement within forty-eight (48) hours setting forth the reasons the order was given. The Village shall use only licensed laboratories for such testing and shall be responsible for maintaining proper chain of custody. The taking of urine samples shall not be witnessed unless there is reasonable suspicion to believe that the employee is tampering with the testing procedure. If the first test/screening results in a positive finding, a confirmatory (GC/MS or a scientifically accurate equivalent) shall be conducted. An initial positive test/screening result shall not be submitted to the Village unless the confirmatory test result is also positive as to the same sample. Upon request, the Village shall provide an employee with a copy of any test results which the Village receives with respect to such employee. A portion of the tested sample shall be retained by the laboratory in accordance with their procedures (currently for a period of 13 months) so that the employee may arrange for another confirmatory test (GC/MS or a scientifically accurate equivalent) to be conducted by a licensed clinical laboratory of the employee’s choosing and at the employee’s expense. Once the portion of the tested sample leaves the clinical laboratory selected by the Village, the employee shall be responsible for maintaining the proper chain of custody for said portion of the tested sample. The results of any positive tests shall be made available to the Village on a confidential “need to know” basis. The first time an employee tests positive for substance abuse involving something other than a proscribed drug, the employee shall be required to enter and successfully complete the Village’s Employee Assistance Program (“EAP”) during which time the employee may be required to submit to random testing with the understanding that if the employee again {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 41  Return to Memo tests positive the Village can take such action as the Village in its discretion deems appropriate. If an employee tests positive for the use of a proscribed drug (i.e., an illegal drug, contraband), the Village can take such action as the Village in its discretion deems appropriate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Village retains the right to take such action as the Village in its discretion deems appropriate if an employee consumes alcohol while on duty The illegal use, sale or possession of proscribed drugs at any time while employed by the Village, abuse of prescribed drugs, as well as being under the influence of alcohol or the consumption of alcohol while on duty, shall be cause for discipline including termination. Any dispute concerning an alleged violation of the specific terms of this Section shall be subject to resolution in accordance with the provisions of the grievance and arbitration procedure set forth in Article V of this Agreement. Moreover, employees are prohibited from voluntarily possessing or using marijuana or cannabis in any form, on or off duty, even though Illinois law may permit certain individuals to possess and use marijuana and cannabis. This prohibition of possession does not apply to the possession of marijuana and cannabis by Skokie police officers when carrying out assigned duties in their official capacity as sworn law enforcement officials (e.g., seizing marijuana and cannabis for evidentiary purposes as part of an arrest). Pursuant to 50 ILCS 727/1-25, any bargaining unit member who discharges their firearm causing death or injury to a person or persons, during the performance of their official duties or in the line of duty must submit to drug and alcohol testing. The drug and alcohol testing shall take place as soon as practical, but no later than the end of the involved bargaining unit member’s tour of duty. The Village may adopt implementation policies and procedures that are consistent with the foregoing. {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 42  Return to Memo The Village shall indemnify and hold harmless the Council and their representatives and agents from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, complaints, suits or other forms of liability (monetary or otherwise) that arise out of or by reason of any action taken by the Village to implement the provisions of this Section. Section 17.7. Impasse Resolution. Upon the expiration of this Agreement, the remedies for the resolution of any bargaining impasse shall be in accordance with the Alternative Impasse Resolution Procedure attached as Appendix B and incorporated herein by reference. Section 17.8. Quartermaster System. The amount which each employee is allotted under the Village’s quartermaster system shall be $775 per fiscal year (pro rata if employed less than a year) for the purchase of uniforms and related equipment shall continue for the term of this Agreement; provided, however, an employee may be reimbursed up to $100 out of said allowance for uniform maintenance or repair where the employee submits receipts documenting the cost of such uniform maintenance or repair. Employees may purchase their approved uniforms and related equipment at any Skokie Police Department approved vendor. Each employee assigned to the Investigations Division or the Crime Prevention/Community Relations Unit shall be allotted $925 per fiscal year (pro rata if employed less than a year). To be reimbursed such employee must submit receipts documenting the cost of the clothes. Effective April 30th of 2022, Officers will not accrue more than 4 years’ worth of uniform quartermaster funds. Officers will be permitted to carry over no more than 3 years’ worth of quartermaster funds from one fiscal year to the next. {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 43  Return to Memo Employees may purchase out of their allotted quartermaster funds their own type ballistic vest that meets the standards that have been established by the National Institute of Justice and protection level authorized by the Department. The Union and the Village desire to participate in the Department of Justice Bulletproof Vest Partnership Grant Program (Grant Program) established pursuant to Section 521 of title I of the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968. In furtherance of this desire, the Village agrees to submit a grant request for 50% of the cost of a vest that an officer purchases which is on the Department of Justice Bullet Armor Compliant Product list. If the grant request is approved and the Village receives a grant, the amount of the grant thus received by the Village shall be credited to the officer’s quartermaster fund. Example: If the grant eligible vest cost $1,000 and the Village receives a grant of $500 to pay for 50% of the cost of the vest, $500 shall be credited to the officer’s quartermaster fund. All operational unit members shall comply with the Skokie Police Department’s written policy requiring operational members to wear an armor vest or body armor. The Department’s written policy shall comply with all the requirements concerning the wearing of vests or body armor that are established by the Grant Program. In accordance with the DOJ’s grant guidelines, an officer is limited to the purchase of one grant-eligible vest in the same vest replacement cycle, e.g., once every five (5) years. The Village will provide employees who are assigned to the Tactical Intervention Unit with the basic set required uniform items with no charge to the employee’s uniform allotment (i.e., 2 pair of pants, 2 blouses, 4 t-shirts, 1 pair of boots, 1 duty rig, 1 baseball-type hat, and 1 field jacket with liner). The Village shall also provide all required equipment for employee(s) assigned as NIPAS officer(s). Employees assigned to the Tactical Intervention Unit or as NIPAS {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 44  Return to Memo officer(s) shall return any Village provided uniforms/equipment if they leave the Village’s employ or if they are no longer assigned to the Tactical Intervention Unit. The Village will replace basic uniform items for employees assigned to the Tactical Intervention Unit or as NIPAS officer(s) as they become worn out or damaged, provided that the employee must turn in worn out/damaged uniform items to his TIU commander and receive approval from him to replace the item or items in question. It is understood that equipment items may be appropriately repaired rather than replaced if it is reasonable to repair the item. Unless an employee does not turn in worn out/damaged uniform and equipment items, the employee shall not be required to use his uniform allotment to replace said items. The Village will reimburse an employee for a total amount up to Two Hundred Dollars ($200.00) per fiscal year for lost or damaged personal property, such as prescription glasses or time pieces, provided: a) such personal item was not covered by the quartermaster system or uniform allowance; b) the loss or damage occurred in the line of duty; and c) restitution was not obtained through the court system or other means (including insurance). The amount of any reimbursement provided in this paragraph will be deducted from the employee’s annual uniform allowance. Notwithstanding these provisions, should the Village make any changes to the mandatory uniform and/or equipment requirements during the term of the Agreement, the Village shall purchase such items for all employees without any deductions from the employees’ annual uniform allotments. Section 17.9. Physical Fitness Program. In order to maintain and improve efficiency in the Police Department, to protect the public and to reduce insurance costs and risks, the Village may establish a reasonable physical fitness program, which shall include individualized goals. {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 45  Return to Memo While employees may be required to participate in any such program, no employee will be disciplined for failure to meet any goals that may be established as long as the employee makes a good faith effort to meet any such goals. Before any such program is implemented, the Village shall review and discuss the program at a meeting of the Labor-Management Committee. Section 17.10. Outside Employment. No employee shall engage in outside employment (which includes self-employment) unless the Police Chief, in accordance with applicable policies that may be in effect from time to time, has approved outside employment. Except during an employee’s vacation period, approved outside employment shall not exceed twenty (20) hours per week. Any change in the nature or extent of an employee’s approved outside employment shall be subject to the Police Chiefs prior approval. If an employee believes that the Police Chief has acted arbitrarily in denying a request to engage in outside employment, in denying a request to change the nature or extent of previously approved outside employment, or in withdrawing approval to engage in outside employment, he may file a grievance in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Section 17.11. Tuition Reimbursement. The employees covered by this Agreement shall be eligible to participate in any educational development and tuition assistance program that the Village may establish on the same terms and conditions that are applicable to Village employees generally, provided that a police officer may be reimbursed up to an annual maximum of One Thousand Dollars ($1,000). Section 17.12. Americans with Disabilities Act. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the parties agree that the Village may take whatever reasonable steps are needed to comply with the provisions of the Americans with Disabilities Act. {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 46  Return to Memo Section 17.13. Death Benefit. The Village will reimburse an employee’s estate up to $7,500 for funeral expenses if the officer dies while on duty. Section 17.14. Retiree Separation Benefits. The following provisions shall govern retiree separation benefits: 1. The official date of retirement will be the day after the last day that the employee was paid. 2. Except as provided in 3.B below, the accrual of vacation, sick leave and holidays will all cease at the end of the last day actually worked. 3. An employee who is retiring shall have one of the following two options: A. An option to receive a severance payout for accrued but unused vacation in a lump sum on the last paycheck issued following the last day worked. If this option is selected, the amount of the severance payout will be based on the accrued but unused vacation as of the last day actually worked. OR B. The option to receive a severance payout for accrued but unused vacation over subsequent consecutive payroll period(s). If an employee selects this option, the retirement date becomes the next day after the last day of the run out and pension payments will not start until after the last day of the run out. During the run out, an employee shall be eligible to continue to accrue vacation benefits, receive paid holidays (pro-rated), and receive any salary increases and/or longevity pay increases that become effective during the period of the run out. 4. An employee with at least twenty (20) or more years of continuous full-time service at time of retirement and who notifies the Police Chief in writing at least ten (10) days in advance of the last date of work prior to retirement shall be entitled during his last year of employment to an extra 8-hour shift of vacation for each full year of employment. This extra vacation time must be taken off in the twelve (12) month period prior to retirement, and is intended to allow the employee additional time to adjust and prepare for retirement. Any unused RVA at the time of the employee’s retirement will be paid out with any other accrued, but unused vacation. There shall be no accrual of any benefits while using RVA. 5. If an employee opts to receive a severance pay out over subsequent consecutive payroll period(s) rather than as a lump sum and the employee is also eligible for the retirement vacation allowance benefit and opts for additional paid time off rather than a lump sum, the severance payout shall be run out first. {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 47  Return to Memo 6. Intermittent or isolated sick leave may not be used while an employee is on a severance payout run out or while the employee is using RVA. Accrued sick days may be used for absences resulting from a long term, extended illness or disability that would otherwise qualify the individual for a nonduty-related disability pension. {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 48  Return to Memo ARTICLE XVIII DISCIPLINE AND DISCHARGE The Village agrees that non-probationary employees may be disciplined and discharged only for just cause. Where the Police Chief or his designee believes just cause exists to institute disciplinary action against any such employee, he shall have the option to impose or seek the following penalties: (a) oral reprimand (b) written reprimand (c) suspension or fine (d) demotion (e) discharge If the Police Chief or his designee decides to discipline or institute disciplinary action against any such employee, the following procedures shall apply: 1. Police Chiefs Authority to Discipline and to Suspend Pending Investigation and/or Hearing (a) The Police Chief or his designee shall have the disciplinary authority: (1) To reprimand or suspend employees without pay as a disciplinary measure up to a maximum of 5 duty days in accordance with 65 ILCS 5/10-2.1-17 and the rules and regulations of the Skokie Fire and Police Commission effective May 1, 1994. Such disciplinary action shall be deemed final, subject only to an appeal of such discipline in accordance with the provisions of this Article. (2) To file charges against employees seeking the penalties of a suspension without pay of more than 5 duty days up to 30 calendar days, demotion or discharge. (b) The Police Chief or his designee shall also have the authority to suspend an employee with or without pay pending investigation and/or pending a hearing regardless of which hearing option may be selected by the employee. If the employee is suspended without pay, nothing herein shall be construed to waive an employee’s rights under the Supreme Court’s {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 49  Return to Memo decision in Cleveland Board of Education v. Loudermill, 470 U.S. 532 (1985). (c) If the Police Chief or his designee decides to discipline an employee or to initiate discipline of an employee, he or his designee shall serve written notice of the charges and disciplinary penalty or proposed disciplinary penalty upon the employee involved. The following provisions shall be applicable when disciplinary action is taken or instituted by the Police Chief or his designee: (1) If the employee elects to have the disciplinary action heard by the Board of Fire and Police Commissioners, the employee’s appeal shall be governed by 65 ILCS 5/10-2.1-17 and the rules and regulations of the Skokie Board of Fire and Police Commissioners, effective May 1, 1994. (2) If the employee elects to file a grievance as to the disciplinary action, the grievance shall be processed in accordance with Article V of the Agreement, except that it shall be filed at Step 4 of the procedure. Once the employee notifies the Village of his decision to have the appeal heard through the grievance and arbitration procedure, the decision of the Police Chief or his designee with respect to the disciplinary action shall be deemed final, subject to the review of said decision through the grievance and arbitration procedure. 2. Irrevocable Election of Appeal Procedure. Upon receipt of the notice, the employee may elect to appeal the disciplinary action (excluding oral reprimands under either option and both oral and written reprimands under the Board of Fire and Police Commissioners’ option) either to the Village of Skokie Fire and Police Commissioners (“Board of Fire and Police Commissioners”) or through the grievance and arbitration procedure set forth in Article V of this Agreement. The employee shall notify the Village of his election in writing within 10 calendar days of receiving the Police Chiefs written notice of discipline. It is agreed that the option to appeal either to the Board of Fire and Police Commissioners or through the grievance and arbitration procedure are mutually exclusive and that no relief shall be available under the grievance and arbitration procedure with respect to any matter which, at the employee’s option, is appealed to the Board of Fire and Police Commissioners, and that no relief shall be available under the Board of Fire and Police Commissioners’ appeal process with respect to any matter, which at the employee’s option, is appealed to the grievance and arbitration procedure set forth in Article V of this Agreement. 3. Board of Fire and Police Commissioners’ Option. If the employee notifies the Village of his decision to have the appeal heard before the Board of Fire and Police Commissioners, the procedures set forth in 65 ILCS 5/10-2.1-17 shall be applicable except as modified in this Article. Where the Police Chief believes {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 50  Return to Memo there is just cause to demote or discharge an employee, he shall not file formal charges with the Board of Fire and Police Commissioners until the employee has notified the Village in writing of his irrevocable option to have the appeal heard before the Board of Fire and Police Commissioners within the 10-calendar day period specified above. If the Board of Fire and Police Commissioners determines there is or is not just cause for discipline, it retains the disciplinary and remedial authority, whichever is applicable, set forth in its rules and regulations effective May 1, 1994, and 65 ILCS 5/10-2.1-17. 4. Grievance and Arbitration Option. If the employee notifies the Village of his decision to have the appeal heard through the grievance and arbitration procedure, the grievance shall be filed at Step 4. Any appeal to the grievance and arbitration procedure shall be signed by a representative of the Council and shall also contain a signed statement from the affected employee waiving any and all rights he may have to appeal the discipline to the Board of Fire and Police Commissioners. Any disciplinary grievance filed without the required signed waiver shall not be arbitrable and the arbitrator shall be without jurisdiction to consider or rule upon it. If the arbitrator determines that the disciplinary action is not supported by just cause the arbitrator shall have the authority to rescind or modify the action and order that the employee be made whole for any losses incurred as a result of disciplinary action, or portion thereof, that is not sustained by the arbitrator. 5. Finality of Decision and Judicial Review. The decision of an arbitrator or the Board of Fire and Police Commissioners, whichever is applicable, with respect to any such disciplinary action shall be final and binding on the employee, the Council, and the Village, subject only to an appeal in accordance with the provisions of Illinois law applicable to the option elected, i.e.: (a) Board of Fire and Police Commissioners’ Option: Any appeal of a Board of Fire and Police Commissioners’ decision shall be in accordance with the provisions of the Administrative Review Act as provided by the Board of Fire and Police Commissioners Act, 65 ILCS 5/10-2.1-17. (b) Arbitration Option: Any appeal of an arbitrator’s award shall be in accordance with the provisions of the Uniform Arbitration Act as provided by Section 8 of the IPLRA, 5 ILCS 315/8. Pursuant to Article VII, Section 6, of the Illinois Constitution of 1970 and Section 15 of the IPLRA, the foregoing provisions with respect to discipline and the appeal and review of discipline shall be in lieu of, and shall expressly supersede and preempt, any provisions that might otherwise be applicable under either 65 ILCS 5/10-2.1-17, or the Rules and Regulations of the Village of Skokie Board of Fire and Police Commissioners. {00870819.DOCX v. 1 } 51  Return to Memo ARTICLE XIX ENTIRE AGREEMENT This Agreement, upon ratification, supersedes all prior practices and agreements, whether written or oral, unless expressly stated to the contrary herein, and constitutes the complete and entire agreement between the parties, and concludes collective bargaining for its term.

Section 2. Selection of Arbitrator and Naming of Panel. The parties agree that should it become necessary to submit their unresolved disputes in negotiations to arbitration pursuant to § 14, they will engage in the arbitration of impasses procedure described in the Act and the Rules and Regulations of the Illinois Labor Relations Board (“Board”), subject to the following: (a) Service of Demand for Mediation: The parties agree that a Demand for Mediation filed by either party upon the other prior to May 1, 2025 (or prior to May 1 in any subsequent year if the Agreement is automatically renewed pursuant to the provisions of Article XXI, Section 1), with respect to the negotiations for a successor Agreement shall be deemed to be a proper and timely demand as provided in the Act and the Rules and Regulations of the Board; further, that arbitration proceedings under the Act and those Rules and Regulations shall be {00661036.DOCX v. 1 } {00870819.DOCX v. 1 }  Return to Memo deemed to have been initiated and commenced on the date of service and filing of the Demand for Mediation; (b) Arbitrator Selection Process. The parties agree that notwithstanding the filing and service of any Demand for Mediation by either party, the selection of an arbitrator will be delayed until such time as either party serves upon the representative of the other, in writing by certified mail, a demand that the arbitrator selection process be commenced, provided that at least one month of mediation has occurred. It is further agreed that: (i) During this period of delay, the parties agree to continue good faith collective bargaining with the advice and assistance of the Mediator from FMCS if requested by either party; (ii) Within seven (7) days of the receipt by the other party of the written demand that selection of an arbitrator begin, the representatives of the parties shall meet and attempt to mutually agree upon an arbitrator. The parties agree that the arbitration proceedings shall be heard by a single, neutral arbitrator. Each party waives the right to a three-member panel of arbitrators as provided in the Act; (iii) In the absence of agreement on a neutral arbitrator, the parties shall file a joint request with the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service (“FMCS”) for a panel of seven (7) arbitrators from which the parties shall select a neutral arbitrator. The parties agree to request the FMCS to limit the panel to members of the National Academy of Arbitrators who reside in Illinois, Indiana or Wisconsin. Both the Village and the Council shall each have the right to reject one panel in its entirety within seven (7) calendar days of its receipt and request that a new panel be submitted. The parties agree to engage in the following ranking process for purposes of determining which of the seven (7) arbitrators on the panel shall serve as the neutral arbitrator, provided that each party may strike or cross out not more than two (2) of the arbitrators on the panel before ranking the remaining arbitrators on the panel. Each party shall have fourteen (14) calendar days from the date the panel list is received from the FMCS to number the names on the panel list in order of preference and return the list to the FMCS. In accordance with the designated order of mutual preference, the FMCS shall invite the acceptance of the arbitrator to {00661036.DOCX v. 1 } {00870819.DOCX v. 1 }  Return to Memo serve. In the event that the arbitrator declines or is unable to serve, the FMCS shall invite the next arbitrator in designated order of mutual preference to so serve. In the event that he declines or is unable to serve, the parties agree to jointly request a new panel of seven (7) arbitrators from the FMCS and commence the selection process anew. It is further agreed that the FMCS’s role and participation in the arbitration process shall be strictly limited to providing the panel(s) and administering the selection process. Once an arbitrator has been selected by means of the parties’ ranking of the members of the panel, the FMCS’s participation in the arbitration proceedings shall be terminated. The parties shall divide equally any costs associated with the FMCS administering the selection process. The parties shall inform the FMCS of this limited role by joint letter at the time the first panel is requested; (iv) The parties shall jointly communicate and coordinate all remaining aspects of the arbitration (including but not limited to scheduling of hearings, requests for issuance of subpoenas and the submission of post-hearing briefs) directly with the neutral arbitrator in the manner prescribed in the Act and the Rules and Regulations of the Board. (c) Issues in Dispute and Final Offers. Within seven (7) calendar days of the service of a demand that the arbitrator selection process commence, the representatives of the parties shall meet and develop a written list of those issues that remain in dispute. The representatives shall prepare a Stipulation of Issues in Dispute for each party to then execute and for submission at the beginning of the arbitration hearing. The parties agree that only those issues listed in the Stipulation shall be submitted to the arbitrator for decision and award. It is further agreed that: (i) Each party retains the right to object to any issue on the grounds that the same constitutes a non-mandatory subject of bargaining; provided, however, that each party agrees that it will notify the other of any issue that it regards as a non-mandatory subject of bargaining not later than the first negotiation meeting where the issue is substantively discussed. Should any disputes arise as to whether a subject is a mandatory subject of bargaining, the parties agree to cooperate in obtaining a prompt resolution of the dispute by the Board pursuant to the Act and the Rules and Regulations of the Board [Section 1200.14 3]. Either party may file {00661036.DOCX v. 1 } {00870819.DOCX v. 1 }  Return to Memo a petition with the Board’s General Counsel for a declaratory ruling after receiving such notice from either party that it regards a particular issue a non-mandatory subject of bargaining. (ii) Not less than seven (7) calendar days prior to the date when the first day the arbitration hearings are scheduled to commence, the representatives of the parties shall simultaneously exchange in person their respective written final offers as to each issue in dispute as shown on the Stipulation of Issues in Dispute. The foregoing shall not preclude the parties from mutually agreeing to resolve any or all the issues identified as being in dispute through further collective bargaining. (d) Authority and Jurisdiction of Arbitrator. The parties agree that the neutral arbitrator shall not function as a mediator unless mutually agreed by the Village and the Council. The arbitrator selected and appointed to resolve any disputes that may exist in these negotiations shall have the express authority and jurisdiction to award increases or decreases in wages and, if applicable, all other forms of compensation retroactive to May 1, 2025 (or prior to May 1 in any subsequent year if the Agreement is automatically renewed pursuant to the provision of Article XXI, Section 1) for the negotiations for a successor Agreement, provided that one party has served upon the other party a timely Demand for Mediation in accordance with the provisions of Section 2(a) above, notwithstanding any delay in the arbitrator selection process that may have occurred or any other modification of the impasse procedure described in the Act and the Rules and Regulations of the Board as a result of this Agreement. Provided one party has served on the other party a timely Demand for Mediation in accordance with the provisions of Section 2(a) above, each party expressly waives and agrees not to assert any defense, right or claim that the arbitrator lacks the jurisdiction and authority to make such a retroactive award of increased or decreased wages or other forms of compensation. (e) Discretion and Judgment of Arbitrator. The parties do not intend by this Agreement to predetermine or stipulate whether any award of increased or decreased wages or {00661036.DOCX v. 1 } {00870819.DOCX v. 1 }  Return to Memo other forms of compensation should in fact be retroactive, but rather intend to insure that the arbitrator has the jurisdiction and authority to so award retroactive increases or decreases, provided a timely jurisdiction Demand for Mediation been submitted by one party, should he in his discretion and judgment believe such an award is appropriate.

Under this pilot program, any officer who refers a candidate for employment as a sworn police officer (including both lateral hires and original appointments) shall be eligible for a $1,000 referral bonus if the candidate receives and accepts an offer of employment and actually reports to duty with the Village of Skokie Police Department. The following conditions apply to the receipt of a referral bonus: {00636517.DOCXv. 3}  Return to Memo a. Only one (1) referral bonus wili be paid per candidate who commences employment with the Village. In the event two (2) or more officers refer the same candidate, the $1,000 referral bonus will be split equally between those officers. b. In order to receive the referral bonus, the candidate must identify the referring officer on their application materials and the referring officer must notify the Human Resources Department they made the referral no later than seven (7) days after the candidate files their application. Candidates will not be allowed to amend their applications to identify a referring officer after the fact, nor shall they be allowed to withdraw and refile the same application in order to add a referring officer. c.

Such officers who vofuntarily refer candidates shall only engage in such activities during their non duty hours and they shall limit their referral activities to friends, relatives, neighbors, and acquaintances as part of the employee's social affairs. Accordingly, the parties agree and understand that the referral bonus will not be included in the calculation of the "regular rate of pay" for overtime purposes. d. Candidates who are referred by a current member of the Skokie Police Department shall not receive any preferential treatment in the ranking or hiring of candidates. Officers who attempt to refer candidates for employment shall have no right to grieve or contest the ranking or selection of candidates for hire. e.

The Stryker Power-Pro XT is no longer being sold and will be obsolete in the future. The Stryker Power-PRO 2 stretcher is the most current model stretcher and is compatible with our current power load systems on all of our ambulances. The Stryker Power-PRO 2 provides enhanced ergonomics to reduce body fatigue during manual loading and unloading. They will also help minimize the risk of stretcher damage and prevent medic or patient injuries with innovative bumper-detect! on (Hydraulics stop cot leg extension when sensing an obstruction). These new features are proven to Document #625045  Return to Mgr Rpt decrease stretcher downtime, lower unexpected costs, and ensure Skokie's ambulances are always ready for service. Recommendation: It is recommended that a contract in the amount of $74,212.52 be awarded to Stryker. This purchase will make it so that two ambulances for the Skokie Fire Department have the latest technology in patient movement and personnel safety further enhancing our Emergency Medical Ser/ices throughout the Village. The Village of Skokie and the Skokie Fire Department has maintained a longstanding business relationship with Stryker and has benefitted from their service and reliability. Comments: Stryker is the sole producer of this equipment and this stretcher is compatible with our current patient lifting and loading system that is located on all of our ambulances. They are currently holding the price at the quoted amount and provided a discount for ordering a quantity of 2. The $5,787.52 additional funds needed to complete the purchase will come from the Fire Department EMS operating budget and $8,000.00 trade-in value for our two oldest Power-Pro XT stretchers (2008) and (2009). Stryker stretchers have also proven to have significant longevity due to their maintenance and service departments. The Village has previously worked with and purchased specialized Emergency Medical Service equipment from Stryker. The overall experience, history, and reference checks continue to remain extremely positive.

Lockerby, Village Manager CC: Maria Monastero Bueno, Village Seal Committee Co-Chair Jasmine Gurneau, Village Seal Committee Co-Chair Trustee Khem Khoeun, Village Seal Committee Co-Chair FROM: Patrick Deignan, Director of Communications & Community Engagement DATE: February 21, 2025 SUBJECT: Village Seal Committee - Recommended Design Background In November 2018, the Village ofSkokie Human Relations Commission began its discussion of the current Village seal, which features Native imagery and has been used since the 1940s. The discussion, initiated by Commission member Rabbi Amy Memis-Foler, prompted the Human Relations Commission to periodically review and further examine the cultural appropriateness of the seal over the next several years. In 2021, Commission member Louis Mercer referred the Commission to Skokie resident Jasmine Gurneau, Director of Native American & Indigenous Affairs at Northwestern University's Office of Institutional Diversity and Inclusion, to facilitate a dialogue with her office and engage with other Native groups. Following these conversations and research, in 2022, the Village and the Human Relations Commission initiated a formal review of the Village seal. The review included collaboration with Skokie Public Library, Skokie Heritage Museum and the Mitchell Museum of the American Indian (now Gichigamiin Indigenous Nations Museum), as wel! as a comprehensive study of national, peer-reviewed research and outreach to Chicago-area Native communities, culminating in a December 2022 listening session. Following public engagement and extensive research, the Village Seal Review Committee concluded that the current Village seal is not an accurate representation of the tribes historically from the Skokie area, and that the sea! is In conflict with how some members of the Native community would like to be represented. Additionally, the review found that depictions of Native people can reinforce stereotypes and prejudice. In February 2023, the Village Seal Review Committee issued a report unanimously recommending that the Village design a new sea! for use on official documents and materials, representing: • The history ofSkokie's land • The Native community • The possibi lities of Skokie's future • The richness ofSkokie's multi-cultural community #622367  Return to Corp Rpt The Human Relations Commission established a subcommittee, referred to as the Village Seal Committee, in June 2023, and tasked it with developing a new Village seal guided by these recommendations. Village Seal Committee Members The Village Seal Committee includes a diverse group of individuals with a range of expertise, perspectives and experiences. Members include: o Maria Monastero Bueno (Co-Chair), Human Relations Commission o Jasmine Gurneau (Co-chair), Northwestern University, Director of Native American and Indigenous Affairs, Oneida Nation citizen/Menominee descendant o Trustee Khem Khoeun (Co-Chair) o Sheila Crumrine, Human Relations Commission o Thorn DaMario, Appearance Commission o Emily England, Manager, Skokie Heritage Museum o Joe Hibdon, Rincon Band ofLuiseno Indians o Richard Witry, President, Skokie Historical Society o Patrick Deignan, Staff o Alex Franz, Staff o Amanda Sabri, Staff Process The Village Seal Committee began its work by first surveying community members on potential elements and themes to incorporate into a new seal design. The Committee developed a survey asking individuals to share what they valued about Skokie; what symbols they felt represented Skokie's past, present and future; what landmarks and natural features represented Skokie; and what vision they had for Skokie's future. The survey was shared with residents at the Wednesdays on the Green and Skokie Farmers' Market events, as well as through the Village's quarterly NewSkokie print newsletter, the Village website, and weekly eNewsIetter. The Village's diversity, sense of community, recreational and green spaces. Native history, and excellent services were commonly cited by residents as important attributes to consider in the design process. Following this feedback, the Committee established and issued a Request for Qualifications to solicit artists interested in working on the project, reaching out to local universities, design firms, arts organizations, the Chicago American Indian Community Collaborative (CAICC), the Mitchell Museum of the American Indian and the general public. The Committee received and reviewed nine submissions, Interviewed three finalists, and ultimately selected N/Iarne Smiley, founder and CEO of Bumper Lanes, a Native American-owned marketing firm, and Mary Fedorowski, a Skokie resident, artist and owner ofOverbite Studio, to work on the project. The Committee spent several months working closely with Bumper Lanes and Overbite Studio to review community feedback, research municipal seal examples, and establish preferences on artistic style, color, and potential elements to include in the seal design. A wide range of different elements were explored as the potential focal point of the new seal design based on community and Committee feedback, including oak, pine and birch trees, native plants and grasses, Village Hall and other Skokie landmarks, fire/flame, acorn, and water features. #622367  Return to Corp Rpt After presenting a draft design to the Village Board in October 2024, the committee launched a survey to gather further input from the community, receiving more than 300 responses online and in-person at the Skokie Farmers' Market. Recommended Design Following presentation of an initial draft design and consideration of community feedback, the Committee is recommending a design that incorporates the following element s/features and updates: • Skokie Spirit Flame: The flame represents the Potawatomi (Keepers of the Fire) and The Council of Three Fires - Ojibwe (Chippewa), Odawa (Ottawa) and Potawatomi tribes historically from the region. The flame design Is inspired by the eternal "Skokie Spirit" flame, which has historically been used by the Village and the broader community as a symbol representing the collective power and energy devoted to making Skokie a better place for everyone. In May 1978, the Village launched a "Skokie Spirit" campaign following the attempted Nazi demonstration in Skokie. The communitywide initiative highlighted the strength of the diverse community, its collective spirit ofvolunteerism, and the advantages of living in Skokie, including its excellent Village services, schools, library, and cultural activities. Updates from October 2024 design: Following commumty input, the Committee modified the shape of the flame element to widen its base ami incorporated more primary red, orange andyellow hues to better reflect fire. • Cattails: Broadleafcattails are included to symbolize the indigenous plants native to the area, including those found at Emily Oaks Nature Center. Cattails provide food, weaving material, shelter, medicine, and help clean polluted water. No updates were made to the cattaU elements. • Wabskoki: The Potawatomi word for marsh, "Wabskoki" describes the land that is now Skokle, reflecting a connection to the land and the people historically from the area. Potawatomi is a verb-based language, and at a deeper level "Wabskoki" reflects a place where medicine Is produced. This connection with medicine and healing further reflects: o The scientific achievements and medicines developed at Downtown Skokie's Illinois Science + Technology Park o Excellent care provided to the community through Skokie Hospital o Healing supported by the Illinois Holocaust Museum in Skokie o A community that welcomes everyone and combats hate Updates from October 2024 design: The spelling was updated from Wabskoke to Wabskoki. Potawatomi is a spoken language, and further research determined that both speUing options were acceptable and that Wabskoki was m fact more commonly used and understood. #622367  Return to Corp Rpt • Colors: The color palette draws inspiration from the area's natural elements. Updates from October 2024 design: The palette was updated to better represent fire, with more primary red, orange and yellow hues incorporated. • Font: The chosen typeface, Minion, ensures accessibility for all readers. Updates from October 2024 design: The typeface was updated from the sans-seriffont Futvra to the serif font Mimon to provide a more professional and historic appearance. • Stained Glass style: The artistic style is inspired by the "Skokie Spirit" stained glass artwork found above the Oakton Street entrance to Village Hall, which served to welcome and inspire visitors. The stained glass work was created by artist and former Village staff member Joe Folise, who also contributed to the development of the Skokie Northshore Sculpture Park and many other public art projects over his career. o Stained glass reflects a place where light always shine through. It's both a window and its own image. o The stained glass is a mosaic, which reflects the collection of smaller, individual pieces fitting together to create a larger, more beautiful image, representing Skokie's cultural diversity. No updates were made to the stained glass style. Further, "1888" was removed from the October 2024 design to provide a better balance to the outer border of the design by allowing "Village ofSkokie" to be centered at the top, while also reflecting that the history ofSkokie's land and people began before the Village's incorporation. Updates to Village Code The current corporate seal of the Village is described in Section 2.1 of the Village Code as "a circular disc with the words 'Village ofSkokie, Cook County, Illinois' on the outer circle and the word "Sea!' in the interior circle." In adopting a new corporate sea!, the following code amendment should be adopted as well. Sec. 2-1. - Corporate seal.

Michael X-J^W'1, CQCp<?ration (Soun^el Trustee Khem Khoeun Trustee Keith Robinson Michael Charley, Director of Health and Human Services Amanda Sabri, Social Worker Chief Brian Baker Date: March 12,2025 Subject: An Update Regarding Village Program to Identify and Assess Bias And Hate Incidents as an Indicator of Future Hate Crimes Introduction In 2022, Michael Large, Corporation Counsel, Trustee Khem Khoeun and Trustee Keith Robinson began to research and assess occurrences of bias and hate incidents in the Village. In essence, it was to focus on occurrences which did not meet or fit the official definition of a hate crime, but otherwise were critical indicators. As part of this work, experts throughout the United States were contacted to learn what similar work was conducted in other communities. It was determined that there were some municipalities which collect data concerning bias and hate incidents, but that very few programs exist that use such data to intervene or resolve such incidents before they rise to the level of a hate crime. As stated in my memo of April 7, 2023, the Village of Skokie is one of America's most diverse municipalities and the opportunities to enrich and expand our cultural awareness is a strength of our community and a source of great pride. This diversity, anchored to common values of equity, respect and goodwill, enhances our social fabric. We must be aware and vigilant to actors and actions that tear at our complex community and compromise the safety of our community. As a result of the initial research, Chief Brian Baker and thereafter Chief Jesse Barnes, Michael Charley, Director of Health and Human Services and Amanda Sabri, Social Worker joined the group to develop a process to acquire bias and hate incident information from the Skokie Police Department without any content that would identify any individuals involved. Based on a commitment to protect the rights and safety of every person regardless of race, religion, disability, sexual orientation, ethnicity, gender or gender identity and expression, the attached Procedure for Early Identification and Intervention in Initial Incidents of Hate was developed by the 625280  Return to Corp Rpt group. Thereafter, our group brought the Procedure to the Village of Skokie Human Relations Commission for its input and to ascertain if it was willing to accept a role in its implementation. Having received its comments which are reflected in the current Program we report that with its concurrence we will continue to advance the Procedure and create a process for its implementation. Attached to this Memorandum is the new Procedure for Early Identification and Intervention in Initial Incidents of Hate. 625280  Return to Corp Rpt ..-^ ^'•]™ri^'' Village of SKOKIE Procedure for Early Identification and Intervention in Initial Incidents of Hate Introduction: The Village of Skokie is committed to creating a community that values inclusivity, tolerance, and respect for all individuals, embracing the diversity that defines us. As one of America's most diverse municipalities, we take pride in our rich cultural tapestry/ which strengthens our social fabric and fosters equity, respect, and goodwill. However, we recognize that hate incidents threaten this shared foundation and the safety and well-being of our residents. To protect our community, we remain vigilant against actions that undermine our values of diversity/ equality, and mutual respect. This Procedure outlines our stance on hate crimes and incidents and provides guidelines for reporting, investigating, and addressing such incidents within the Village of Skokie. It is not enough to react and investigate when a hate crime is reported. As a community we seek to be proactive and use education as an intervention tool when signs of hate are demonstrated. This Procedure is designed to identify, anticipate and intervene in initial incidents of hate as indicators of possible future hate crimes. Drawing on research from the City of Los Angeles and from UCLA Berkley and an initial report to the Village of Skokie Board in March of 2022 by Corporation Counsel, Michael M. Lorge, Village Trustees Khoeun and Robinson a committee including Village of Skokie Trustees/the Corporation Counsel, Health and Human Services and the Skokie Police Department continued its research and work which was detailed in a Memorandum from Corporation Counsel dated April 7, 2023 entitled A Proposal for Early Intervention in Bias and Hate Incidents. Upon favorable response from the Village Board/ the Committee expanded to include representatives of the Human Services Commission. The Human Relations Commission reviewed this Procedure and its recommendations are included. The Human Relations Commission will be an integral part of the Procedure. Procedure Goals To expand our practice and ability to protect the rights and safety of every person regardless of race/ color, creed, religion, ancestry, gender, gender identity/ sexual orientation, physical or mental disability, citizenship/ immigration status, or national origin by listening to each other and responding for each other so we are intuitively present when signs of trauma might occur in our community. For the Village of Skokie to be on guard and respond quickly to acts of hate when they first appear including influences, jokes, behaviors and public speech which are gateways to Hate Crime. This Procedure establishes a program to identify, anticipate and intervene in hate incidents as a precursor to Hate Crimes in Skokie. It relies on individuals reporting incidents of hate and using the Skokie Police Departments data collection and information about incidents and occurrences that might not meet the definition of hate crime for various legal reasons but are critical indicators where people might be prone to such behavior, leading to efforts to repair and transform the behavior through education, honest discussion/ sensitizing experiences and interaction. Definitions: Hate crime: A person commits hate crime when, by reason of the actual or perceived race/ color, creed/ religion, ancestry, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, physical or mental disability,  Return to Corp Rpt citizenship, immigration status, or national origin of another individual or group of individuals, regardless of the existence of any other motivating factor or factors, he or she commits assault/ battery, aggravated assault/ intimidation, stalking, cybersta Iking, misdemeanor theft, criminal trespass to residence, misdemeanor criminal damage to property/ criminal trespass to vehicle, criminal trespass to real property, mob action, disorderly conduct, transmission of obscene messages, harassment by telephone, or harassment through electronic communications as these crimes are defined in Sections 12-1,12-2,12-3{a), 12-7.3,12-7.5, 16-1,19-4, 21-1, 21-2, 21-3, 25- 1, 26-1, 26.5-1, 26.5-2, paragraphs (a)(l), (a)(2), and (a)(3) of Section 12-6, and paragraphs (a)(2) and (a)(5) of Section 26.5-3 of this Code/ respectively (Hate crime/ 720 ILCS 5/12-7.1.)

Examples of hate incidents include: Name-calling, insults, displaying hate material on your own property, posting hate material that does not result in property damage, distribution of materials with hate messages in public places. The U.S. Constitution allows hate speech as long as it does not interfere with the civil rights of others. While these acts are certainly hurtful, they do not rise to the level of criminal violations and thus may not be prosecuted. However, it Is important to note that these incidents have a traumatic impact on the victims as well as on the community at large. Reporting Procedure 1.

The revised Action Plan will be sent to HUD for final approval before applicants are able to begin their updated projects.

A substantial amendment includes a review and approval of the draft amendment, a public hearing, and an advertised period for public comment. Funds allocated will allow many subgrantees to continue their projects until the start of the new Program Year in October, 2025. A breakdown of items within this substantial amendment include the following projects from previously approved subgrantees: • CJE SeniorLife is requesting an updated scope of work and funding request. • Housing Opportunity Development Corporation (HODC) is requesting an updated scope of work to allow for additional projects. • WINGS is requesting an updated scope of work to allow for additional projects. • Turning Point is requesting an updated scope of work to allow for an additional project. • North Shore Senior Center (NSSC) is requesting funding for a project in lieu of receiving Public Service funds for the remainder of the 2024 Program Year. • Metropolitan Family Services is requesting funding for a project in lieu of receiving 624957 CDBG PY24 Amendment t  Return to Agenda Public Service funds for the remainder of the 2024 Program Year. • Funding for the Village's Home Improvement Program, which provides financial assistance toward home repairs in Skokie.
