March 21, 2017 Village Board Meeting Agenda Item: Wastewater Treatment Plant Facilities Plan Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA) Categorical Exclusion Notice of Intent Type: Public Hearing Report From: Public Works Introduction As part of the re‐application process for low‐interest loans from the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA), a Categorical Exclusion was requested for the proposed wastewater treatment plant improvement to meet new phosphorus limits. A categorical exclusion is considered for projects with limited or no potential for causing negative environmental impacts and streamlines the submittal process for projects that qualify. The IEPA has reviewed the Village’s facility plan submittal has provided a Notice of Intent to issue the Categorical Exclusion for Cary’s wastewater treatment plant improvement (see attached). The IEPA concurs that the proposed improvements for the phosphorus limit project meet their requirements for a Categorical Exclusion and that the improvement has limited or no negative environmental impacts. A notice of intent was published and the public hearing is being held to provide the public an opportunity to comment as to whether they feel the project should be precluded from the formal environmental review process. A legal notice was published in the Northwest Herald (see attached) and public comments, if any, were asked to be sent directly to the IEPA. Exhibits A. IEPA Notice of Intent Letter B.

Discussion Regarding Village’s Revolving Loan Fund – Kojak’s Application Director Simmons provided the background of the Village’s Revolving Fund Loan Program, as well as the current Fund Balance, Loan Balance, and application by Kojak’s. Kojak’s is seeking the use of funds to assist with restaurant expansion/relocation. Kojak’s is seeking a seven year loan for $75,000 at a 2.27% interest rate. Kojak’s owner Carrie Schuppe, 840 Wild Rose Drive, provided an overview of her background as a business owner, the current restaurant’s history, size, menu, services, and condition. Ms. Schuppe stated sales have increased 10% over all in the time she has owned the restaurant. Since the business is growing, they require additional space, which is not possible at the current location. The new proposed location will greatly expand the needed space, both in the kitchen and dining area. Kojak’s identified several areas they feel will help the success of the new location, including the ability to serve alcohol (under a Class J liquor license), an ice cream bar, Sunday hours, a gaming room, online ordering, increased catering marketing, addition of fresh foods and family style dinners. Trustee Kraus stated his support for the project. Trustee Covelli asked Director Simmons if the revolving fund program is administered by request of a business. Director Simmons stated that when businesses inquire about moving to or expanding their business in Cary, the Community Development Department provides them with information such as grants or the Revolving Loan Fund program that may be of assistance to them. Trustee Dudek asked when the new restaurant would open. Ms. Schuppe replied they were planning on June or July of this year. Trustee McAlpine stated she was supportive of the project. Trustee Dudek asked if there would be variances regarding signage. Director Simmons stated that Kojak’s would have their name added to the monument sign along Rt. 14 and possibly installing a monument sign along Three Oaks Road. To date, no plans have been submitted for review. Trustee Cosler asked why Revolving Fund Loan monies were not offered to other businesses. Trustee Covelli stated she believed the Village should advertise these options to businesses within the Village who may not be aware the programs are available. Director Simmons stated other businesses have inquired but not applied for the loan.
