Lockerby, Village Manager DATE: April 16, 2026 SUBJECT: MANAGER’S REPORT BOARD MEETING OF MONDAY, APRIL 20, 2026 A. Creation of a Housing Fund and the Skokie Community Land Trust. At the February 17, 2026 Committee of the Whole meeting with the Village Board, Corporation Counsel and staff shared information regarding the draft ordinance to enable the Village to establish a Community Land Trust (CLT) and create a Housing Fund. The CLT is a mechanism that promotes long-term affordable home ownership by allowing land to be held in a trust. The Housing Fund establishes a dedicated fund in the Village to receive funds in support of housing activities, provides parameters for how the funds will be used, and will be part of the Village’s budget going forward. It is staff’s recommendation to adopt the updates to Chapter 58 of the Village Code to 1) enable a Community Land Trust (CLT) and 2) create a Housing Fund from which eligible activities can be funded. I concur with staff’s recommendation and respectfully request Board approval of the ordinance amending Chapter 58 of the Skokie Village Code. If approved this item will return on the May 4, 2026 Board Agenda for second reading and approval. B. Village Flag – Recommended Design. In March 2025, The Village of Skokie adopted a new corporate seal following a comprehensive public engagement and design process. Following the codification of a new Village seal, Village staff began a phased process of updating materials featuring the previous Village seal. In May 2025, the Village launched an initiative to design a new Village flag, inviting residents of all ages to share their creative designs. Members of the Village’s Flag Panel, compromised of volunteer local artists and graphic designers along with Village staff, identified seven designs from 79 total submissions. Based on feedback and subsequent discussion, both the public and a majority of the panel favored the Skokie Spirit design, by Buddy Boor. I concur with staff’s recommendation and respectfully request Board approval to authorize Corporation Counsel to draft the appropriate ordinance. Patrick Deignan, Communications and Community Engagement Director has led this process and will provide a presentation. #639206 Return to Agenda * C. Excess Liability Coverage for Fiscal Year 2027 – Gallagher – METIS/Genesis/Arch Companies. The Village of Skokie’s excess commercial liability coverage policy expired on May 1, 2026. The excess liability commercial marketplace remains the most volatile of all segments within the public entity insurance market, with many carriers reducing capacity or exiting the market altogether. Staff recommendation is acceptance of Gallagher - METIS/Genesis/Arch quotation of $13 million excess combined coverage of the Village’s $2 million retention at a premium of $660,585. Current market conditions are challenging, but the Village’s self-insured program as structured has demonstrated for decades to be the most cost-effective approach in managing Village liability. It is recommended that the Village Board approve and accept the proposal submitted by Gallagher – METIS/Genesis/Arch quote in the amount of $660,585 and authorize the Village Manager to enter into a contract for said services. I concur with staff’s recommendation and respectfully request Board approval. #639206 Return to Mgr Rpt A Memorandum Community Development Department TO: John Lockerby, Village Manager FROM: Johanna Nyden, AICP, Community Development Director Kate Portillo, AICP, Planning Manager Justin Malone, AICP, Neighborhood & Housing Coordinator DATE: April 3, 2026 SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM—April 20, 2026 Village Board Meeting Creation of a Housing Fund and the Skokie Community Land Trust Recommendation Staff recommends the adoption of updates to the Village Code to 1) enable a Community Land Trust (CLT) and 2) create a Housing Fund from which eligible activities can be funded. The attached draft code changes highlight these updates and changes to Chapter 58 of the Village Code. Update At the February 17, 2026 Committee of the Whole meeting with the Village Board, Corporation Counsel and staff shared information regarding the draft ordinance to enable a CLT and creation of a Housing Fund. The Village Board discussed the proposed ordinance with staff and Corporation Counsel and answered questions surrounding definitions, potential funding sources, and next steps. Implementation Following adoption of enabling language, the following steps and processes will take place: Accumulate Funds in the Housing Fund. Sources for funding the acquisition and likely rehabilitation of housing units in the CLT could include payments-in-lieu of providing affordable housing units through new development, private donations, secured grant funding, and other sources. Identify Not-for-Profit CLT Management Partner. The Village would seek to engage a CLT management partner with experience operating a Community Land Trust program. Upon engaging a management partner, all program administration responsibilities are to be handled by the outside organization and are not the responsibility of the Village. The private non-profit organization would own the land on behalf of the Village. The partner would participate in the acquisition of homes, provide oversight of rehabilitation of the homes, and then work with qualified individuals to purchase the home through the CLT. The Village is not responsible for the transactions associated with individual homebuyers and sellers. The non-profit management partner would serve as the Community Land Trust operator and would facilitate the CLT governance and oversight. Community Land Trusts typically have a 1 639004 Return to Mgr Rpt board made up of representatives, including people using the land trust program, community members, and other technical experts such as funders or stakeholders. Skokie would have representation accordingly. Purchase and Rehabilitation of Property. With funding in place, property can be acquired within the Village for the CLT inventory in coordination with the not-for-profit Management Partner. Identifying Residents Eligible for CLT Participation. Applicants for a CLT home purchase will need to meet preliminary qualifications established through the CLT Management Partner and the Village, including financial approval for the affordable housing program and to be placed on the waiting list for available properties. Criteria can include gross household income limits, housing and debt to income ratios, asset limits, cash for down payment, mortgage eligibility, and savings reserves. Property Sale and Management. During the homeowner’s tenure owning the home, the underlying land remains owned by the CLT. When the homeowner moves, the home is sold at a restricted price so the home stays affordable for the next buyer.

Lockerby, Village Manager FROM: ____________________________ Patrick Deignan, Director of Communications & Community Engagement DATE: April 15, 2026 SUBJECT: Village Flag - Recommended Design Background In March 2025, the Village of Skokie adopted a new corporate seal following a comprehensive public engagement and design process. Skokie’s previous seal had been in use since the 1940s and featured Native imagery, which was determined to not be historically accurate or representative of Native community members. The process to design a new seal was initiated by the Village’s Human Relations Commission and guided by the Village Seal Committee. Following the codification of a new Village seal, Village staff began a phased process of updating materials featuring the previous Village seal. One such prominent item is the Village of Skokie flag. As a highly visible symbol of Skokie, updating the Village flag was a priority. In May 2025, the Village launched an initiative to design a new Village flag. Village Flag Panel The Village’s Communications and Engagement Division assembled a volunteer panel of local artists and graphic designers, as well as Village staff, to assist in selecting and refining a new Village of Skokie flag design. Panel members include: • Michelle Beatrice, Skokie Art Educator, Skokie School District 73.5 • Ami Koenig, Ami Koenig Design • Randy Payne, Randy Payne Design • Pam Sloan, Artist and Member of the Village of Skokie Fine Arts Commission • Patrick Biederer, Village of Skokie Building & Inspection Services, Artist • Patrick Deignan, Village of Skokie Communications & Engagement Director • Meredith Gioia, Communications Manager, Fine Arts Commission Staff Liaison Design Solicitation The Village launched a public flag design initiative in May 2025, inviting residents of all ages to share their creative designs. The deadline to submit designs was September 30, 2025, accommodating participation by Skokie schools. Village staff conducted extensive outreach to encourage public participation and awareness of the initiative, including: • In-person engagement, including a design-your-own-flag activity at the Festival of Cultures; a “Color the Future” youth flag design activity in partnership with the Fine Arts Commission at Meetup on Main Street; and a Design Your Own Skokie Flag #639073 Return to Mgr Rpt event in partnership with Skokie Public Library and the North American Vexillological Association (NAVA) • Direct outreach to Skokie art educators to encourage student participation • Promotion through the Village’s digital communications channels, including the website, The Scoop electronic newsletter and social media • Promotion in the summer 2025 edition of the NewSkokie print newsletter distributed to all households Design Selection Members of the Village’s Flag Panel met five times between November 6, 2025 and March 9, 2026 to support the design selection process. The Village received 79 designs during the submission window. The Flag Panel reviewed these submissions, considering flag design principles outlined in “Good” Flag, “Bad” Flag, compiled by Ted Kaye of NAVA. • Keep It Simple. The flag should be so simple that a child can draw it from memory. • Use Meaningful Symbolism. The flag's images, colors, or patterns should relate to what it symbolizes. • Use 2 or 3 Basic Colors. Limit the number of colors on the flag to three which contrast well and come from the standard color set. • No Lettering or Seals. Never use writing of any kind or an organization's seal. • Be Distinctive or Be Related. Avoid duplicating other flags, but use similarities to show connections. Out of 79 designs, the Flag Panel identified seven preferred designs and shared them with NAVA for input. After receiving expert input, Village staff reached out to flag artists to share feedback, provide guidance on refinements, and offer design support. Flag designers were provided an opportunity to share up to three updated versions of their respective flag for consideration. The Flag Panel reviewed artists’ refined design submissions and selected three finalist designs to share with the public for input. Finalists included a design titled Skokie Spirit by Buddy Boor, another design titled Skokie Spirit by Richa Cordero, and a design titled Prairie Flame by Jasmine Dela Luna and Jeff Meyer. The Village shared these designs with the community on February 10, 2026 and solicited public input through a survey available through March 8, 2026. The survey received 789 responses. The Flag Panel reviewed survey responses. Based on this feedback and subsequent discussion, both the public and a majority of the panel favored the Skokie Spirit design, by Buddy Boor. Based on public input received, Flag Panel members worked with the artist to make a minor refinement to the position of the flame element featured in the flag, and identified color specifications for flag production purposes. #639073 Return to Mgr Rpt Proposed Design and Description Based on extensive community input, expert consultation, and alignment with established flag design principles, staff recommends adoption of the Skokie Spirit flag design by Buddy Boor as the official Village of Skokie flag. This design reflects Skokie’s history, values and identity in a simple, distinctive and meaningful way. The proposed Village of Skokie flag features an orange and yellow flame set against a green field. The flame draws inspiration from Joe Folise's 1978 Skokie Spirit stained glass at Village Hall and the Village’s corporate seal. It honors the region’s earliest inhabitants, including the Potawatomi, known as "Keepers of the Fire," whose word for "marsh" gives Skokie its name. The flame serves as a beacon for all people, regardless of color, creed, culture or background, reflecting Skokie’s longstanding commitment to welcoming everyone and symbolizing the community’s strength found in unity. The colors reinforce these ideals: Yellow and orange reflect Skokie’s warmth, camaraderie and energy, while green represents the land’s heritage of marsh, forest, prairie and parkland. Update to Village Code An update to the Village code will be necessary to reflect the description of the new flag. About the Artist Buddy Boor is a graphic designer and front-end developer based in Skokie, where he lives with his wife and daughter. He is one half of Other Things, a small design studio specializing in branding and interactive work. Buddy holds a BFA in Graphic Design and a BA in Advertising from Michigan State University, and is an enthusiast of flags, pinball and architecture. #639073 Return to Mgr Rpt C Memorandum Risk Management Division TO: John T. Lockerby, Village Manager FROM: Nicholas A. Wyatt, Assistant Village Manager DATE: April 10, 2026 SUBJECT: Excess Liability Coverage – Fiscal Year (FY) 2027 Village Board Agenda – April 20, 2026 The Village of Skokie’s excess commercial liability coverage expires May 1, 2026. Last year, the Village secured commercial coverage from METIS / Genesis / Arch companies for $13 million excess coverage; this is above the Village’s own $2 million retention for a combined total of $15 million in liability coverage. The excess liability commercial marketplace remains the most volatile of all segments within the public entity insurance market, with many carriers reducing capacity or exiting the market altogether. There are many market stress factors including tort reform and tort caps, financial market uncertainties, societal trends including gun violence, demonstrations and protests against governments, social inflation including trends toward increased litigation and polarization in social media and news reporting, and jury awards which are drastically increasing especially in Cook County. As such, many public entities with large limits are having difficulties maintaining coverage limits within budgetary constraints, some without any reasonable alternatives. While options are limited with current market conditions, the Village through broker Gallagher – Public Sector, approached multiple insurance carriers to solicit renewal quotes for FiFY 2027. A number of carriers were approached and indicated noncompetitive premiums, law enforcement was excluded or written on a monoline format or declined to quote given Skokie being in Cook County. Options are limited given current market conditions, however, the quotes received from the incumbent carriers were favorable. Gallagher secured quotes to maintain $15 million in total coverage for the Village. This includes maintaining the Village’s $2 million self-insured retention, followed by $5 million excess coverage with METIS for the first layer; $5 million excess coverage with Genesis for the second layer; and the final $3 million excess coverage with Arch. These were the Villages same carriers at the same layers as in FY26. In total, Skokie maintains liability coverage of $13 million excess of the Village’s $2 million self- insured retention at a premium of $660,585 or an increase of 1.38% from FY 2026. In FY26, the Village maintained $15 million in terrorism liability coverage at an annual premium of $6,101. For FY27, the renewal premium for this same level of coverage has decreased to $5,177. As part of staff’s due diligence, an option was evaluated to increase the coverage limit to $30 million in recognition that, while terrorism-related incidents are highly unlikely, the potential severity of such events could exceed existing limits. The additional $15 million in coverage is available for an incremental cost of $5,177. Given the relatively low cost to significantly enhance protection against a catastrophic and unpredictable risk, staff recommends increasing the terrorism liability coverage to $30 million. #639126 Return to Mgr Rpt The Village will continue to explore alternative approaches for risk transfer. Current market conditions are challenging, but the Village’s self-insured program as structured has demonstrated for decades to be the most cost-effective approach in managing Village liability. The Village will continue to complete due- diligence review that the current structure is still the most cost-effective option moving forward. Recommendation – I recommend acceptance of the Gallagher (METIS / Genesis / Arch) quote for $13 million excess combined coverage above the Village’s $2 million retention at an annual premium of $660,585. I further recommend approval of the Terrorism Liability Policy increasing coverage to $30 million at an annual premium of $10,354. Coverage will be effective for FY 2027, a 12-month period beginning May 1, 2026. Funding for these premiums is included in the FY27 Self Insurance Budget. Village Manager and Village Board approval is respectfully requested.

The ethics complaint was initially filed with the Ethics Commission on February 20, 2025 (and subsequently amended) pursuant to the “Ethics Governance” section of the Village’s Ethics Code (Section 2-386(h)), and the Ethics Commission conducted investigations and hearings in accordance with that Section. The Ethics Commission found that the Respondent had violated the Village’s Ethics Code while the Respondent was serving as an Officer of the Village, and recommended a fine in the amount of $1 for each of the three Ethics Code violations. Specifically, the Commission decided as follows: 1. The evidence establishes that the Respondent violated Section 2-386 of the Skokie Code on three separate occasions in that he campaigned for the Office of Village Clerk while on compensated time as a Village Trustee at the Village Board Meetings of May 6, 2024, June 3, 2024, and July 1, 2024. The evidence shows Respondent, during the three Village Board meetings in question, used the Village's property, including the microphone, audio-visual system and the Village YouTube account to campaign for the Office of Village Clerk while being paid to serve as a Trustee . The campaigning included the statements made by Johnson at each of the meetings shown in Commission Exhibits A, B and C and dissemination of the videos from the three Board meetings in his campaign materials through the use of social media and email. 2. In accordance with Section 2-386 (h)(g)(4) the Commission recommends that a fine of $1 for each of the three Ethics Code violations be levied against James Johnson. A complete copy of the written decision is attached. It sets forth the allegations, the facts underlying the allegations, and the recommendations of the Commission. Return to Agenda In accordance with Section 2-386(h)(1)(f) of the Village Ethics Code, the Board of Trustees has an adjudicatory role in the Ethics Governance process. It is charged with reviewing the recommendations of the Ethics Commission and imposing any penalty or discipline as it deems appropriate. However, while the Board of Trustees is not bound by the recommendation of the Ethics Commission, it does not have the authority to re-litigate or re-hear the underlying case. The decision of the Board of Trustees is final and is subject to administrative review in the Circuit Court of Cook County. The Board action can be by motion. It need not adopt an ordinance or resolution. The motion can be to take one of the following three action options: 1. Accept the recommendation of the Ethics Commission and issue a fine of $1 for each of the three Ethics Code violations found to exist by the Ethics Commission. 2. Reject the recommendation of the Ethics Commission and issue no fine. 3. Modify the recommendation of the Ethics Commission and issue a different fine, penalty or discipline. 4900-0933-8274, v. 1 Return to Agenda Return to Agenda Return to Agenda Return to Agenda Return to Agenda Return to Agenda Return to Agenda Plan Commission Report 7309 Monticello Avenue Village Board Council Chambers, 7:30 PM April 20, 2026 To: Mayor and Board of Trustees From: Paul Luke, Chairman Re: 2026-03P: Special Use Permit PLAN COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION AND ANALYSIS At the March 19, 2026, meeting of the Plan Commission, the request from Tayyab Shaik for a special use permit for an automotive repair facility in the M3 Industrial zoning district was recommended as APPROVED by a vote of 5 ayes, 0 nays, and 4 members absent.

As referenced in the Plan Commission report, this case is part of continued efforts to advance the implementation goals of the Housing Chapter of the Comprehensive Plan. One Commissioner requested clarification related to additions that included cantilevered expansion, and staff confirmed this type of horizontal expansion would require an application for a variance at a Zoning Board of Appeals public hearing.

HOUSING SUB-COMMITTEE REVIEW AND RECOMMENDATION One of the primary objectives of the Housing Sub-Committee of the Plan Commission is to implement the Housing Chapter of the Comprehensive Plan and to evaluate the Zoning Ordinance for flexibility, efficiency, and opportunities for streamlining relative to housing gaps to better support existing and future housing stock in the Village. Through multiple meetings during 2025, the sub-committee worked with staff to understand data on common housing enhancement requests and projects that could not move forward due to the current code. Detailed research and context was provided in a memorandum dated January 9, 2026 provided in the January 12, 2026 Housing Sub- Committee meeting packet. The addition of code language for adaptive reuse, adjustment of allowable front yard obstructions to include roofed front porches, and vertical expansion of non-conforming housing structures within the existing footprint were recommended for advancement to the Plan Commission at the January 12, 2026 meeting. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that Sections 118-32, 118-59, and 118-253 of the Zoning Chapter of the Village Code be amended as follows, with text to be deleted stricken through in red and text to be added highlighted and bolded. Sec. 118-32. – General definitions Adaptive reuse means the conversion of an existing building from its originally intended purpose to accommodate a new use, with primary features such as building footprint, setbacks, overall façade, established off-street parking and height remaining as established. VOSDOCS-#638567-v1-Staff_Report_2026-04P_Zoning_Ordinance_Text_Amendments 1 of 2 Return to top of 4P The building height definition is being updated to bring it into alignment with best practice and practical application during permitting and construction inspections. Staff performed a comparison of current definitions in surrounding communities (Lincolnwood, Evanston, Morton Grove, Niles, Glenview, Wilmette), utilized professional resources ( A Planner’s Dictionary, a publication of the American Planning Association’s Planning Advisory Services, and Planning.org), and performed interdepartmental vetting of the proposed changes.
