ADOPT RESOLUTION R-44-16, A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION OF AN INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF WHEATON AND THE FOREST PRESERVE DISTRICT OF DUPAGE COUNTY PROVIDING FOR THE EXTENSION OF WATER SUPPLY IMPROVEMENTS AND THE PROVISION OF WATER TO ST. JAMES FARM Councilman Scalzo moved and Councilman Prendiville seconded that Resolution R-44-16, A Resolution Authorizing the Execution of an Intergovernmental Agreement between the City of Wheaton and the Forest Preserve District of DuPage County Providing for the Extension of Water Supply Improvements and the Provision of Water to St. James Farm, be adopted. City Manager Dzugan recommended approval of an intergovernmental agreement with the Forest Preserve District of DuPage County to extend the City’s water system to St. James Farm. He noted in his memorandum to the City Council, he indicated there is a recapture clause that will need further action by the City Council. In response to Councilman Suess, City Manager Dzugan stated recapture fees would be paid to the Forest Preserve District as they are paying for the installation of the water main. He confirmed the fees would be paid by homeowners at the time of connection to the water main. City Manager Dzugan further confirmed the water main would be turned over to the City for ownership and maintenance. Mr. Joe Mahady, 927 N. Washington Street, objected to any paybacks going to the Forest Preserve District. He stated nothing in the agreement referenced the 99 year lease the Forest Preserve District has on the property. Council Proceedings September 19, 2016 / Page 5 Councilwoman Fitch asked if pre-annexation agreements would be required for any properties that tap into the water main. City Attorney Knippen confirmed that is the City’s policy, but that requirement would be at the City’s discretion. He indicated that the properties are not contiguous to the City and are currently in the Warrenville Fire Protection District. He indicated that, due to costs to the City to provide fire protection to the property, the City may decide not to annex the properties. In response to Councilman Rutledge, City Attorney Knippen stated no lease exists as the St. James Farm property was purchased from the McCormick Estate. City Manager Dzugan stated the City is comfortable that water quality and volume will not be affected by this water main extension. Director of Engineering Redman stated the District’s plans also include an automatic flushing device and the water main will be adequate for any properties that may tap in. He confirmed the recapture is intended to recapture the costs for installation of the water main, not the cost for the usage of water, as that will be metered by the City. Roll Call Vote: Ayes: Councilman Scalzo Councilman Suess Councilwoman Fitch Councilman Prendiville Councilman Rutledge Mayor Gresk Nays: None Absent: Councilman Saline Motion Carried Unanimously 10. COUNCIL COMMENT Mayor Gresk announced that the Wheaton Franciscan Sisters will hold a Day for Peace and Non-Violence on Sunday, September 25, 2016 at their Chapel at 26W171 Roosevelt Road and encouraged residents to attend. Councilman Suess indicated that residents are under the impression that the new garbage contract would be more expensive than the current program. He stated that the combination of fees for recycling and garbage collection is less than the current sticker cost. Councilman Suess feels this contract will be beneficial to the City’s residents. 11.
