Community Impact Maintaining adequate water flow for consumption and fire protection is critical. Replacing the existing booster station is necessary as it has reached the end of its useful life. The new structure will be an above grade facility that will be easier to access and maintain than the existing below grade facility resulting in more efficient and cost-effective maintenance.
Budget Impact Funds in the amount of $875,000 are budgeted in account number 505-8040-434.75-10 of the Water Department’s FY2021-22 Capital Budget for a new booster station and associated design and installation costs. The proposed booster station is $521,324, resulting in a balance of $353,676 to complete the project.
Strategic Alignment Packet Pg. C - 2
Background The Water Department operates three booster stations in the distribution system. One of the booster stations is located on West College Avenue and is used for pumping water from the West Reservoir into the main distribution system. The other two booster stations are used to “boost” pressure from the main distribution into the North and Northeast pressure zone. The Northeast Booster Station was installed in 2000 and is located just north of Fort Jesse Road along the east side of Hershey Road. The North Booster Station (NBS) was installed in 1975 and is located at the northwest corner of Raab Road and School Street.
The NBS consists of an underground structure that contains three pumps and various equipment used to control and monitor both the booster station operation and water system pressures. This booster station typically increases the water pressure 25-30 psi.
In 2017, Water Department staff looked into options to combat the pipe corrosion observed at the NBS. At that time, it was noted that the piping inside the booster station was in fair condition and could be recoated, but the floor of the booster station was experiencing more aggressive corrosion. At that time, rehabilitation of the existing structure was estimated to provide at the most an additional 10 years of service life. Since rehabilitation was simply delaying replacement by only 10 years, replacement of the NBS was added into the list of capital projects during the budget process.
During the spring of 2020, one of the pump canisters developed a hole in it due to corrosion. The canister was removed by Town staff and replaced. While trying to locate the origin of the leak, Water Department employees noted severe corrosion around the entire exterior of the underground structure.
Discussion Due to the severe corrosion on the interior/exterior of the booster station and the ongoing safety concerns regarding the confined space conditions of the underground structure, staff has determined that a new above grade structure is necessary to provide adequate water flow and pressure for both consumption and fire protection. A new structure, like proposed, is estimated to have a useful life greater than 50 years.
Construction plans and specifications were developed by Water Department consultant, Farnsworth Group, to replace the existing below grade booster station with a new, above grade structure. Farnsworth Group designed the original NBS in 1975 and the Northeast Booster Station in 2000. Both structures are manufactured by Engineered Fluid Inc. (EFI). EFI is the leader in booster pump station manufacturing and is located in Centralia, Illinois. A prefabricated booster station like the one proposed, provides several advantages over constructing one in the field. These advantages include a shorter construction period allowing less down time between the transition of the old station to the new, all components are fully tested prior to shipping and the structure is built inside a controlled environment.
Approximate lead time for building a new booster station is approximately 70-100 business days after submittal plans are approved. To best position the Town for timely manufacturing/delivery of the new booster station, and avoid any potential mark-up by contractors, the Town is opting to purchase the new booster station directly from the manufacturer. EFI has proposed a new booster station at $521,324. Packet Pg. C - 3
At a later date, the Town will bid out the remainder of the project. The bid portion will include installation of the new booster station consisting of new distribution piping, electrical hookup and a concrete pad. The contractor will also be responsible for demolition of the existing booster station and final grading of the construction site.
Upon Council approval, EFI will begin construction of the new prefabricated booster station, with expected completion within 14 - 20 weeks. Delivery and installation of the new booster station would then take place as weather allows through the fall/winter with project completion expected in the spring of 2022.

Resolution Authorizing Frame Rail Replacement and Corrosion Repairs to a 2011 Pierce Fire Engine
Prepared By: Michael E. Humer, Fire Chief
Reviewed By: Pamela S. Reece, City Manager and Eric Hanson, Assistant City Manager
Staff Recommendation: Approval
Attachments: Proposed Resolution
Community Impact The necessary repairs will extend the utilization of an essential fire apparatus in our department fleet.
Budget Impact Funds not to exceed $45,000 are budgeted in in the Equipment Maintenance Fund 001-6510-422.26-10 in FY2021-22.
Strategic Alignment Packet Pg. D - 2
Background Prior to 2016, most of the Normal Fire Department frontline apparatus were manufactured by Pierce Manufacturing based in Appleton, WI. In 2016, the Town was notified that Pierce Manufacturing had a frame rail corrosion issue with existing engines throughout the country and requested an opportunity to have the NFD fleet inspected. In late 2016, a team of engineers met with Town of Normal Public Works mechanics and Fire Department officials to complete the inspection of six Pierce manufactured apparatus. The team found significant corrosion on all the equipment. Two engines were immediately removed from service, however despite a 50- year chassis warranty, Pierce refused to take financial responsibility for repairs. In 2017, the Town entered a class action lawsuit with several other communities and a settlement was reached with Pierce that allowed for the required repairs to commence at a reduced cost. The two fire engines initially removed from service have been replaced with engines built by a different manufacturer and are in full service. We are now moving forward with the required repairs on the remaining Pierce manufactured equipment. The Town initially budgeted funds in fiscal year 2020-21 for the repairs on a third engine still in service, but that work was delayed until 2022 due to the budgetary constraints addressed in FY2020-21 related to COVID-19 uncertainties.
Discussion As a part of the settlement with Pierce Manufacturing, the company agreed to sell affected parties new frame rails for $8,000. In addition, Pierce is required to provide a replacement engine to the municipality for use during the repair period, which typically lasts four months, as part of the settlement. During this repair work, Pierce will assess the engine to determine if other repairs/updates are needed and complete the work prior to returning the equipment back into service. The Town is required to pay for the labor and any replacement parts, i.e., cross members, air brake tanks, etc. related to the additional updates. Any additional work must be identified, and the total repair amount approved by the Town prior to commencing. In discussing the outcomes with other communities who have completed this process, the average price to replace the frame rails and additional necessary updates to the affected engines is typically $40,000 - $45,000. In February 2021, the Council approved the repairs of a 2009 Pierce Engine at a cost not to exceed $45,000. The 2009 Engine work has been completed at a final cost of $26,000.
For this project, we are again requesting authorization for repairs not to exceed $ 45,000 to update a 2011 Pierce engine currently in service. We want to make sure that we have adequate funds available to complete the project. Once complete, the repairs will extend the utilization of the engine to the end of its expected life in 2029-30.

Resolution Waiving the Formal Bidding Process and Authorizing the Purchase of a Ford/Horton Type 1 Ambulance from Foster Coach Sales of Sterling, Illinois in the amount of $229,339
Prepared By: Michael E. Humer, Fire Chief Reviewed By: Pamela S. Reece, City Manager and Eric Hanson, Assistant City Manager Staff Recommendation: Approval Attachments: Proposed Resolution, Foster Coach Sales Quote and Specification
Community Impact The purchase of this ambulance will allow the Fire Department to continue safe, effective, and efficient response to emergency incidents. The proposed purchase will replace a 2013 Ford/AEV Ambulance with 118,000 miles.
Budget Impact Funds are budgeted in the Vehicle and Equipment Replacement Fund 733-6510-422.70-10 in the amount of $290,000 for a replacement ambulance in FY 2022. The Foster Coach price reflects applicable discounts through the Northwest Municipal Conference-Suburban Purchasing Cooperative. The proposed ambulance has a cost of $229,339 after a $9,000 trade-in credit for the 2013 ambulance. Additional expenses to equip the ambulance (stretcher, power load system, etc.) are incorporated into the budgeted $290,000 total expense. A 3% prepay discount and performance bond is available from Horton which would result in a savings of approximately $5000.

Background Normal Fire Department ambulances have an estimated useful life of eight years and are budgeted for replacement through the Vehicle and Equipment Replacement Fund. All four ambulances currently in the fleet range from model years 2012-2016 and are scheduled for replacement in the coming years.
Fire Department staff convened a workgroup of FF/Paramedics to recommend any changes to the ambulance design features currently in use by the Fire Department. A significant change from the current units was the decision to specify a gas-powered engine instead of diesel fuel. Public Works Mechanic Staff suggested the change to save on downtime and maintenance costs associated with the diesel engines. Fire Department staff consulted with other agencies currently using gas powered ambulances, with all reporting no noticeable performance or maintenance issues. Although minimal, other suggested feature/design changes were incorporated into the information shared with three vendors to develop proposals for the replacement units.
• AEV- ($236,200.03) Although AEV no longer has a local dealer for their product, the dealer based in Columbia, Missouri provides service to Illinois as well. The vendor provided an updated version of the current units operated by the Fire Department. Staff has been satisfied with the design and performance of the current units and felt the proposed product would continue to serve the needs of the department well. This dealer not having a local service option is a concern for PW fleet maintenance and Fire staff.
• Horton- ($229,339) Horton Ambulances are served by Foster Coach Sales in Sterling, Illinois. The Horton product presented as a very well-built vehicle and members of the workgroup felt the quality was better than the AEV. The Horton also included ungraded safety features such as occupant protection air bags in the patient compartment area. Public Works and Fire staff also feel having the dealer in close proximity will aid in decreasing vehicle downtime waiting on repair parts/support.
• Braun- (No Proposal Received). Braun Ambulances are represented in Illinois by North Central Emergency Vehicles from Plainfield, Illinois. Fire Department Staff communicated several times with their representative regarding specifications and design elements, but this vendor did not reply with a proposal or quote.
Based upon the evaluation of the Horton Ambulance, staff recommends Council waive the formal bidding process and authorize the purchase of this emergency medical services apparatus in the amount of $229,339 to most effectively serve the community with reliable equipment.

An Ordinance Authorizing the Town of Normal to enter into a State & Municipal Lease/Purchase Agreement with Clayton Holdings, LLC as Lessor Not to Exceed $1,133,140 and Approval of the Applicable Budget Adjustments
Prepared By: Andrew Huhn, Director of Finance
Reviewed By: Pamela S. Reece, City Manager and Brian Day, Corporation Council
Staff Recommendation: Approval
Attachments: Proposed Ordinance, Financing Documents
Community Impact A long history of solid financial management, AAA credit rating and strong banking relationships provides the Town with maximum flexibility and favorable access to the debt markets. Financing this purchase is an efficient, responsible path to balancing the Town’s cash position (current and future) and utilization of debt. Such an exercise results in the best value and use of tax dollars.
Budget Impact The Town budgeted $1.0 million in FY2022-23 in the Vehicle and Equipment Replacement Fund 733- 6510-422.70-10 to purchase a Fire Truck. This budget amount will be eliminated and staff will establish, as part of the FY2022-23 budget, a debt service (lease payment) of $122,545.86 starting in FY2022-23 and all applicable fiscal years thereafter. These budget adjustments will be made as part of the FY2022- 23 budget cycle.

Goal EV3: Employ innovative policies, financial tools, and practices adapted to the paradigm shifts affecting municipalities and their finances.

Background The Town of Normal has typically paid cash for its vehicles and equipment, which is not common, as most local governments utilize a variety of financing programs to support their major vehicle and equipment purchases. This is particularly true for vehicles that have a long useful life and significant costs.
When deciding to finance or pay cash, all organizations evaluate their cash position, anticipated needs for cash during their business cycle and the available borrowing rates and terms.
Financing a purchase is typically considered a prudent decision under the following circumstances.
• Rates are favorable • Cash positions are below standard operating targets (i.e. low cash reserves) • Additional cash will be needed in the future
Using cash for a purchase is a typically considered a prudent decision under the following circumstances, which are essentially the direct opposite of the above comments.
• Rates are not favorable • Cash positions are at or above operating targets (i.e. strong cash reserves) • Additional cash needs are generally stable in the future
Given the significant cash outlay needed for the fire truck, current market rates and the uncertainty of the post-COVID economic outlook, staff felt the timing was right to consider financing options. This is true for several reasons: first and foremost, local lending rates are extremely favorable. The current low- rate environment is a function of the Federal government’s efforts to keep borrowing rates low, to spur continued post-COVID economic recovery.
Other reasons relate to the Town’s fiscal position and planning efforts against a back drop of an uncertain economic outlook. While the General Fund and Vehicle and Equipment Fund have strong fund balance reserves, we remain cautious about the post-COVID economic recovery. As such, preserving cash to allow for future flexibility and to react to changing circumstances makes sense if financing terms are favorable.
It is for all these reasons that staff is recommending the Town finance the fire truck purchase and retain the planned cash outlay for future expenditure needs.
Discussion Staff issued a request for proposals (RFP) to local banks to determine what rates and terms may be available to finance the purchase of the new fire truck. The RFP requested a quote for interest rates on a 10-year term, with rate locks through July and August, and identifying any fees associated with the transaction. The table below illustrates the total financing cost on $1,133,140 over a 10-year term as submitted from the banks.
Packet Pg. F - 3
The rates proposed by local institutions are very favorable. The rate offered by Commerce Bank is extremely low for a 10-year fixed term and is likely even below what the Town will earn on its cash and investments once the economy has fully recovered.
By way of example, if the Town borrowed $1,133,140 from Commerce Bank, over the next 10 years, the total cost of financing would be $93,318.60. It should be noted that Busey Bank had the lowest rate (1.29%), but their proposal included an upfront fee that could be paid upon execution of the transaction or amortized as part of the loan. This additional fee increased their total cost of borrowing above Commerce’s proposal. Bank Rate Lock Date Financing Rate Commerce Bank 7/30/2021 92,043.07 1.43% Commerce Bank 8/31/2021 93,318.60 1.45% Busey Bank 9/15/2021 99,891.18 1.29% Busey Bank (Up front fee amortized) 9/15/2021 101,096.99 1.29% US Bank 7/30/2021 110,333.88 1.72% US Bank 8/31/2021 111,617.87 1.74% Town & Country 8/31/2021 119,836.18 1.86% Heartland Bank 7/30/2021 122,414.41 1.90% Heartland Bank 8/31/2021 125,641.03 1.95% Morton Bank 7/30/2021 139,638.70 2.17% Morton Bank 8/30/2021 144,189.28 2.24%
As shared in the table, Commerce has the lowest total financing cost of all the submittals. Based on this analysis, staff is recommending the Town finance the fire truck with Commerce Bank over the proposed 10-year term. If approved, the annual payment will be approximately $122,545.86. Staff also requests that Council approve the applicable budget adjustments.

Resolution Waiving the Formal Bidding Process and Authorizing the Purchase of a Spartan/Smeal Ladder Fire Apparatus from Fire Apparatus Supply Team of Lincoln, Illinois at a cost of $1,133,140
Prepared By: Michael E. Humer, Fire Chief Reviewed By: Pamela S. Reece, City Manager and Eric Hanson, Assistant City Manager Staff Recommendation: Approval Attachments: Proposed Resolution, Proposal
Community Impact The purchase of this fire apparatus will allow the Fire Department to continue safe, effective, and efficient response to emergency incidents with reliable equipment.
Budget Impact The Town budgeted $1.0 million in FY2022-23 in the Vehicle and Equipment Replacement Fund 733- 6510-422.70-10 to purchase a Fire Truck. The council will act on financing this purchase through Commerce Bank prior to this agenda item. Should that not be approved, a budget adjustment in amount of $133,140 will be required in the fund referenced above.
Strategic Alignment
Background In late 2020, the Normal Fire Department disposed of a 1999 Pierce ladder truck with a 75’ ladder. The truck was scheduled for replacement in 2022 but was taken out of service due to frame rail and structural corrosion damage. When planning for replacement of that apparatus, a 100’ ladder was determined more effective than a 75’ ladder.
Over the last several years, many 4-5 story apartment buildings, some with commercial spaces on the ground floor have been constructed in the Town. When access from the roadway, vehicle parking, and Packet Pg. G - 2
lot setbacks are considered, these occupancies offer unique challenges for fire apparatus placement. Many of these structures offer limited access for a 75’ ladder whereas a 100’ or greater offers more options for occupant rescue and firefighting. The expected useful life of this proposed vehicle is approximately 20+ years.
The Town also operates a 2006 100’ Tower Ladder vehicle that is currently stationed at Fire Headquarters. That apparatus is scheduled for frame rail repairs later this year.
In preparing for review and selection of a new ladder truck, Fire Department staff inquired with several apparatus vendors in hopes that one manufacturer may have a suitable vehicle available that could be delivered and placed into service quickly to minimize the time the department was relying on only one aerial apparatus. Staff learned the following:
Pierce Manufacturing: Indicated they had a 105’ ladder truck that was currently in production and necessary changes could be made if the contract was signed by July 10, 2021 at a cost of $1,152,800 and delivery in October. The cost for the same vehicle with traditional build time was quoted at $1,255,400. Fire Department Staff determined the accelerated timeline did not allow enough time to properly design and evaluate this vehicle.
E-One: Fire Department Staff did not seek further information from E-One or request specific pricing because they indicated they are currently expecting a 17-month build/delivery time.
Spartan/Smeal: Fire Department Staff consulted with FAST and determined their 105’ rear mount ladder truck would meet the department’s current and future needs. Although a vehicle was not available for expedited delivery, Spartans estimated 10–12-month build/delivery time is acceptable for a full custom built apparatus. This vehicle is available to the Town through a joint purchasing program: Sourcewell Cooperative Purchasing contract. Two Spartan Fire Engines were purchased in 2019 and the Fire Department is satisfied with their quality and performance.
Based upon the 10 to 12-month delivery time and the proposed price of $1,133,140 for a new 105’ aerial ladder truck, staff recommends Council waive the formal bidding process and enter into a purchase agreement with Spartan/Smeal Ladder from Fire Apparatus Supply Team of Lincoln, Illinois.

Community Impact This project will help to extend the life of the structure and help to avoid more costly repairs in the future. Because the bids to complete the work were significantly over budget, staff recommends rejecting bids. As a result, the project will be delayed so that further analysis can occur to complete the project in the most effective and efficient manner.

Background The Camelback Bridge, located just west of the Linden Street, carries Virginia Avenue over the Constitution Trail. The Camelback Bridge was named to the National Register of Historic Places in 1997. In 2001, the Camelback Bridge was reconstructed. To help maintain the historical significance of the Camelback Bridge, the existing Phoenix columns and king post trusses from the original bridge were salvaged for reuse. The king post trusses were reused for aesthetics and did not carry any of the bridge loads. Concrete forming techniques were used, and the profile of the original bridge was maintained to add to the historic appearance.
In 2011, the timber wearing surface on the bridge was replaced. The timber wearing surface is scheduled to be replaced in 2022 as part of a maintenance contract that will address additional maintenance issues on the bridge.
In March 2020, the north king post decorative truss failed. The south king post decorative truss was also removed from the bridge at this time. Discussions are underway with the State Historic Preservation Office to address the king post trusses.
The Camelback Bridge is currently in need of maintenance and painting. This project was designed and bid to address some of these needs and included replacing all cross-bracing rods and turnbuckles at piers, retrofitting the top of all pier columns to shed water, removing and replacing concrete encasement at the piers closest to the trail to extend the concrete above grade and cleaning and painting structural steel. A second maintenance contract was scheduled for early 2022 that will address the timber wearing surface and other remaining issues.
Discussion The Bid Call was advertised through the Town’s email list service on June 24, 2021. Subscribers to the list service include local and regional contractors, construction plan rooms and engineering professionals. A Bid Call for the project was also advertised on June 24, 2021, in the Normalite. A pre-bid meeting was conducted via Microsoft Teams meeting on Tuesday, June 29, 2021.
Bids for the Camelback Bridge Repair and Painting Project were received, opened, and read at 10:30 a.m. on Friday, July 9, 2021. Two bids were received.
A summary of the bids is shown below. The complete bid tabulation is attached.
White Construction $186,700.00 620 N. 19th Street Springfield, IL 62702
Stark Excavating, Inc. $174,667.70 Low Bid 1805 W. Washington Street Bloomington, IL 61701 Packet Pg. H - 3
The bid documents have been reviewed and found to be acceptable, however, the low bid is 51.7% over the engineer’s estimate of $115,150.
The Engineering Department has reviewed the bid prices with the consulting engineer that prepared the contract documents for this project. The cost of the cleaning and painting related work was underestimated due to the relatively small quantities and the uniqueness of this project. Other issues related to the pandemic and the volume of work available to contractors this year may have also increased project pricing.
Staff recommends rejecting the bids and considering alternatives to achieve a better overall price for the proposed work. Alternative methods of cleaning and painting the metal handrail will be evaluated for potential cost savings. There is also the possibility of reduced mobilization and traffic control costs if this project is combined with the timber wearing surface replacement project scheduled for next construction season.

Resolution to Accept the Proposal for the Completion of an Uptown Parking Study from Desman Design Management, Chicago, IL
Prepared By: Eric Hanson, Assistant City Manager Reviewed By: Pamela S. Reece, City Manager and Mercy Davison, Town Planner Staff Recommendation: Approval Attachments: Proposed Resolution, Desman Parking Study Proposal
Community Impact Uptown Normal is a vibrant community center, adjacent to a premier Midwest university, featuring world-class entertainment venues, an eclectic mix of dining and retail establishments, and premier lodging and housing options that are all centrally located in an attractive and inviting environment. In addition, Uptown Normal has become the epicenter of multiple community and regional festivals and events throughout the year. Maintaining adequate, safe, and convenient parking is essential to the ongoing development of the area and the success of those businesses and entities already located in Uptown Normal.
Budget Impact The Town budgeted $60,000 in the FY21, carried forward to the FY 22 budget, for the completion of a comprehensive parking study in account line 001-1030-143.20-10. The Desman Design team submitted a proposal not to exceed $56,330, to complete the study, including recommendations on parking deck utilization and management.
Strategic Alignment
Packet Pg. I - 2
Background Uptown Normal has seen significant redevelopment activity over the past 15 years, following the implementation of the Uptown Revitalization Effort, which was approved in 2000. Projects of note completed since inception include the Marriott Hotel and Convention Center, the Hyatt Place Hotel, Uptown Station, the Children’s Discovery Museum, Medici restaurant, One Uptown, and Uptown Crossings mixed-use developments. In total, over $300 million in private and public investment has been realized since the plan’s inception in 2000. A second phase of development called “Uptown 2.0,” south and adjacent to the Union Pacific Railroad, is likely to bring additional development in future years creating additional need for available, accessible parking. In order to ensure those visiting the Uptown area have adequate parking, the Town currently owns and operates, via a third-party, three parking decks with 1,493 spaces, three surface lots, and approximately 110 spaces available on the streets within Uptown. Discussion The Uptown Normal revitalization has created substantial business development and investment as well as community amenities that bring thousands of people to the area each month. With success comes new challenges, including the need for readily available parking for those who live, work, and play in the Uptown area. The Town is aware of a perception by some in the community that there is a “parking problem” in Uptown Normal, although ample parking is typically available daily, except during peak times during festivals and events. Despite parking availability most days, the public has expressed ongoing concerns with access to convenient street and surface lot parking in Uptown. A major point of concern often stated by residents is the dissatisfaction with using the three parking decks in Uptown Normal. The Town sent a Request for Proposals (RFP) to parking management consultants seeking a comprehensive review, analysis, and recommendations for the ongoing parking management of the entire Uptown area, parking deck operation and management, quantity and location of ADA parking spaces, and future utilization of on-street parking, with which to base future investments and/or changes to the existing Uptown development plan. The initial RFP was issued in September 2020 and five proposals were received, but evaluation and selection was delayed due to the ongoing pandemic. Once the State of IL moved to Phase 5 of the Restore Illinois plan, the town contacted all parties that submitted proposals in the Fall 2020 and all parties remained interested and none altered their initial pricing/proposal. The five companies that submitted proposals include: Farnsworth Group, Sam Schwartz, Desman Design Management, Walker Consultants, and Rich & Associates. The proposal ranged in cost from $67,160 to $25,500. A team of Town staff reviewed and evaluated the proposals and unanimously selected the Desman Design Management proposal based on their response to the RFP. The Desman proposal, including qualifications and costs is attached for your review.

PROJECT UNDERSTANDING As one of the major activity centers in one of the most vibrant communities in central Illinois, Uptown Normal is continuing to develop into an active diverse mixed-use community. This development makes for real and perceived parking and mobility challenges.
As the community continues to develop, the need for new parking and better demand management is increasing. In addition to the issue of parking for new developments, there is also a concern that the existing parking supply may not be properly located to serve Uptown’s needs. While there may very well be an ample supply of parking in the whole of Uptown, the locations of parking assets in relation to the different activity centers, likely result in areas of localized parking shortages. It is the desire of the Town to arm itself with “best practices” strategies to better manage the existing supply of parking.
Overarching all of these goals is the need to maintain long term financial sustainability for the Town and the parking system. The short and long-term financial impact of each solution will be weighed against the benefits.
The result of this effort will include visual representations, as well as a database of information, related to the current state of the existing parking supply and the anticipated effect of future development on that supply. Additionally, the Town will be provided with a detailed account of the key findings from the stakeholder outreach effort, as well as a strategic implementation plan containing recommendations related to: code and policy changes, “best practices” parking management strategies, potential applications for enhanced parking technology, use of transportation demand management (TDM) strategies, wayfinding enhancements, shared parking opportunities, financing mechanisms, integration with mass transit initiatives, and opportunities for introducing strategically located new parking supply –among others.
GENERAL PROJECT APPROACH The typical approach taken by DESMAN to successfully complete a project of this type is to first become intimately acquainted with the project location or study area, through first-hand exploration of the area, review of prior and associated efforts, and in-depth discussions with the client and their constituents.
Once a basic understanding of market conditions has been established, DESMAN can begin a series of discussions with concerned constituents and stakeholders, following a “listen-confirm-respond’ format. The intent of this approach is three-fold:
• First, DESMAN seeks to illicit (“listen”) information from public and private stakeholders regarding
TOWN OF NORMAL, IL 1| SCOPE OF SERVICES REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL FOR UPTOWN PARKING ANALYSIS & STRATEGIC PLAN 6 Packet Pg. I - 10 INNOVATION THROUGH COLLABORATION, DESMAN SUCCESS BY DESIGN Design Management
what’s working within the system, what is not, what can be improved and what new initiatives might be welcome. Often, part of this process involves surveying or polling to collect concrete data on constituent’s perceptions, preferences, values, and objectives, which can be used to guide the analytical process.
• The second step (“confirm”) requires DESMAN to report back to stakeholders on what they have heard and how they are applying it to the analysis. This step is critical to assuring DESMAN’s efforts and focus is properly oriented towards developing solutions and initiatives which are politically viable and acceptable to the end users of the system. DESMAN has also found this practice of reporting back is critical to assuring community buy-in later in the process, as constituents who feel they’ve been accurately heard and reasonably considered are more likely to support a plan, even if they object to aspects of it, than those who feel they have not had any input, even if the plan is favorable to their objectives.
• The third (“respond”) portion of public engagement is DESMAN presenting recommendations following a ‘this is what we heard, so this is what we did narrative. This allows the consultant to support recommendations with both industry best practices and also the community’s stated desires and wishes for the system. By framing the conversation in this manner, DESMAN’s final plan is responsive to those individuals who have invested time and effort in engaging in the process, assuring that each initiative will have adequate public support to be put into action when the time comes.
Through the public process, DESMAN is also engaging in a program of constant analysis and assessment, developing potential solutions to issues as they are identified and quantified, testing those in internal meetings with the Town staff and steering committee members and then with stakeholders through the public engagement process. Those solutions which appear to have viable support are then further refined, including preliminary cost/benefit assessments to quantify fiscal impact.
The final step in the process is to organize solutions into a plan of action which includes key action steps and a conceptual timeline for execution. Often this plan also includes a financial aspect which outlines when the client will incur projected capital and/or operating costs, recommended actions to offset those costs and projections of revenues arising from the same (as appropriate), and an estimate of net operating income, debt service coverage, and net cash flow or fund balance, if applicable. This provides the client with a linear and fiscal road map to achieving the goals and objectives defined throughout the study process.
APPROACH TO WORK The following is DESMAN’s proposed task-based work plan to successfully complete the Uptown Parking Analysis and Strategic Plan. This work plan is based on the purpose and goals outlined in the RFP and is intended to be used as a starting point for completing this project. Adjustments to the plan are likely and welcomed based on discussions with the Town prior to and throughout the course of the project.
TOWN OF NORMAL, IL 1| SCOPE OF SERVICES REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL FOR UPTOWN PARKING ANALYSIS & STRATEGIC PLAN 7 Packet Pg. I - 11 INNOVATION THROUGH COLLABORATION, DESMAN SUCCESS BY DESIGN Design Management
Phase I: Project Coordination and Research Task I.1: Kickoff Meeting with Town Staff and the Steering Committee – The purpose of this meeting will be to introduce the DESMAN team to the Town staff and project steering committee, establish lines of communication, confirm the proposed study schedule, and gather any relevant reports and base data. During this meeting, we will seek to discuss and refine our methodology for engaging stakeholders, in order to create a plan to effectively gain stakeholder/public input and participation. The DESMAN team will seek to conduct one on one interviews selected Town staff representing key departments such as Planning, Police, Finance, Public Works and the Town Clerk. We will also ask Town staff to identify potential community stakeholders to be interviewed.
Prior to collecting data and meeting with Stakeholders we will attempt to identify the following: • Vision and goals for the parking system • Who are the users that parking should adequately serve, • What are the current parking issues and tension, • What are the long-term planning and economic development goals for Uptown?
In addition to the above, it is our intent to discuss the following specific topics during the kickoff meeting:
• Scope of work • Future developments in the study area • Communication/Coordination Protocols • Parking issues and concerns • Goals of the study • Potential dates and times for parking occupancy • Project schedule surveys • Parameters of the study area • Current Parking Administrative practices • Summary of Expenses related to Parking
Task I.2: Review and Evaluate Existing Data – Our team will review any existing reports and data gathered during the kickoff meeting. Additionally, we will review the Town of Normal’s codes and ordinances related to parking within the study area.
Task I.3: Community Engagement Meetings – the DESMAN team will conduct interviews with the various public/private entities in Uptown Normal identified by the Town staff in Task I.1, which typically includes: business and property owners, employees, neighborhood representatives, developers, residents, key institutional/governmental representatives, transit agency officials and members of the public. DESMAN plans to host private interviews with key stakeholders, in addition to conducting group forums in which stakeholders with similar interests and geographic needs will be invited to provide their views on parking conditions and the Town’s parking operation, and share ideas on potential solutions.
TOWN OF NORMAL, IL 1| SCOPE OF SERVICES REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL FOR UPTOWN PARKING ANALYSIS & STRATEGIC PLAN 8 Packet Pg. I - 12 INNOVATION THROUGH COLLABORATION, DESMAN SUCCESS BY DESIGN Design Management
In an effort to minimize the expense associated with face-to-face interviews, we would request that the Town staff take the lead in scheduling key stakeholder meetings, with the goal being to conduct the interviews during a one- or two-day period in a central office or location, if at all possible. In cases where scheduling conflicts exist, follow-up conferences with individuals who could not attend will be completed via phone or other digital means of communication. DESMAN will organize the questions, comments and notes from these stakeholder meetings and include them in the Phase I deliverable.
Task I.4: Assessment of Existing Conditions – The DESMAN team will update the data provided by the Town from an existing inventory of on - and off-street parking within the study area, including both public spaces, and publicly available privately-owned spaces; any parking facilities that may be outside of the study area, but which support activity within the area, will be identified and noted. In addition to the location and number of spaces on each street and in each facility, this inventory will identify as much as possible: the type of parking (public/private; surface/structured; short-/long-term; reserved/unreserved), the users served by each facility (employees/visitors/ residents/special event patrons/etc.), hours of operation, the method of control/enforcement (gates/pay boxes/ meters/etc.), parking rates charged, the entity operating each parking facility, and the number of spaces in each facility. This information will be summarized on a GIS base map.
Task I.5: Perform Peak Occupancy Surveys – In consultation with the Town staff and steering committee, the DESMAN team will identify an appropriate week during which parking occupancy counts and observations will be conducted. Ideally, these counts would occur on a Wednesday or Thursday, and possibly on a weekend, during both the daytime and evening peaks. Additionally, these surveys should be conducted during a week of “normal” activity – avoiding any major festivals, political events, etc. that might skew the data. In addition to these surveys, it is anticipated that our team may conduct additional occupancy counts at some facilities in order to capture unique parking demand characteristics that may not be captured during the identified survey periods. This assumes that normal parking conditions have returned to Normal during the study period. If not, we are prepared to proceed based on pre COVID-19 parking occupancy counts which may have already been collected.
We have utilized several techniques to model pre-covid parking occupancy counts. • Utilizing pre-covid occupancy counts – adjusted for current conditions. • Estimating “normal” occupancy based on discussions with experienced parking staff and enforcement personnel. • Projecting pre-covid occupancy based on the reduction in revenue, both on street and off-street, and applying that factor to post-covid occupancy. Revenue data from the survey period would be required as well as similar data pre-covid.
If pre-covid counts are not available, either of the other two methods will provide satisfactory data.
TOWN OF NORMAL, IL 1| SCOPE OF SERVICES REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL FOR UPTOWN PARKING ANALYSIS & STRATEGIC PLAN 9 Packet Pg. I - 13 INNOVATION THROUGH COLLABORATION, DESMAN SUCCESS BY DESIGN Design Management
Task I.6: Analyze Existing Parking Utilization and Capacity and Identify Surplus/Deficit Conditions – The parking utilization data will be analyzed in order to identify the existence of current parking surpluses or deficits within the study area. At a minimum, this analysis will identify surpluses and deficits by block, area and type of parking.
Task I.7: Review Information on In-Progress/Planned/Proposed Development – DESMAN will examine the information provided by the Town staff and stakeholders during the previous phases of work related toin- progress/planned/proposed development within the study area. This information will inform our analysis of how Uptown will build out in the future and whether the existing and planned parking supply can reasonably accommodate future levels of parking demand.
Task I.8: Prepare and Submit Phase I Deliverable – Following the completion of the Phase I tasks, our team will prepare a deliverable which presents the data gathered during this phase and our methodology for collecting that data, along with maps and other graphics which clearly illustrate the current parking conditions within the study area. This deliverable will be submitted to the Town and steering committee for review and further discussion. It is anticipated that the DESMAN team will meet by phone with the Town staff and steering committee at this time to discuss the Phase I results. Comments to the Phase I deliverable received from the Town staff and steering committee will be incorporated into a finalized version of the document for inclusion in the final report.
Phase II: Parking Demand Assessment and Scenario Planning
Task II.1: Test Supply/Demand Impacts of Future Development Projects/Scenarios – Based on the identified projects, DESMAN will determine the potential impact of these developments on parking supply and demand in the study area over the short-term (1-5 years) and long-term (6-10 years). These analyses will factor in the effects of the loss of existing surface parking lots to development, the conversion of existing buildings to more parking-intensive land uses, the demolition of existing buildings for replacement with new development in the same location, and anticipated changes in mode split. Parking requirements will be projected based on the Town Zoning code as well as standards from comparable communities.
In addition to this first scenario, DESMAN will conduct an alternative analysis which looks at potential future parking supply and demand conditions assuming the Town implements aggressive TDM, pricing and transit enhancement strategies. The use of a combination of these strategies may make it possible to effectively serve the growing population of people living, working and playing in Uptown, without the need to expand the future supply of parking as aggressively as in the first scenario.
Task II.2: Identify Future Parking Surplus/Deficit Conditions – The results of the analyses conducted in Task I.7, along with the existing parking deficit(s) identified in Task I.6 will be used to identify the locations and scale of anticipated future parking surpluses and/or deficits within the study area. For each of the
TOWN OF NORMAL, IL 1| SCOPE OF SERVICES REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL FOR UPTOWN PARKING ANALYSIS & STRATEGIC PLAN 10 Packet Pg. I - 14 INNOVATION THROUGH COLLABORATION, DESMAN SUCCESS BY DESIGN Design Management
future parking demand scenarios developed in the previous task, localized surplus/deficit conditions will be identified by area and type of parking. Additionally, based on the anticipated dates of completion for the in- progress/planned/proposed development projects, a timeline of projected parking surplus/deficit conditions will be developed for each subarea of Uptown. This will be a valuable tool for the Town for determining when action will need to be taken in order to address future parking deficits (i.e. when to build a new facility or when to implement creative TDM and parking management strategies).
Task II.3: Management of Parking Demand – Based on the existing demand and the projected future parking demand we will identify alternatives to manage parking demand. This will include best practices for managing both on-street and off-street parking. This may also include a combination of variable rates based on proximity to demand, elimination of parking in certain areas, or expanded overnight parking, etc. We willmake recommendations to adjust the parking demand ratios for Uptown Normal based on existing and anticipated parking requirements.
Task II.4: Public-Private Partnerships – DESMAN will identify realistic options and strategies to encourage provide development of or investment in parking facilities as well as techniques that the Town can use to leverage private development.
Task II.5: Prepare and Submit Phase II Deliverable – Following the completion of the Phase II tasks, our team will prepare a deliverable which presents the future analysis, wayfinding and parking alternatives along with maps and other graphics which illustrate the anticipated future parking conditions within the Town of Normal under each of the identified scenarios. As in the previous phase, this deliverable will be submitted to the Town staff and steering committee for review and further discussion. It is anticipated that the DESMAN team will meet with the Town staff and steering committee at this time to discuss the Phase II results.
Comments to the Phase II deliverable received from the Town and steering committee will be incorporated into a finalized version of the document for inclusion in the final report.
Phase III: Strategic Implementation Plan
The objective of this phase of the project is to develop a strategic implementation plan which outlines specific actions that can serve as an economic development and sustainability tool for Uptown development. Given the wide range of potential recommendations – from physical solutions to technology upgrades to code and policy changes – it is anticipated that the final phase of this project will be a highly-collaborative effort between DESMAN, the steering committee, the Town, and other stakeholders.
DESMAN’s ultimate goal for this final phase of work will be to develop a menu of viable solutions to the parking- related issues that have been identified throughout the course of this project, including the pros and cons and potential costs associated with those solutions. Given that the results of the analysis are not yet known, the
TOWN OF NORMAL, IL 1| SCOPE OF SERVICES REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL FOR UPTOWN PARKING ANALYSIS & STRATEGIC PLAN 11 Packet Pg. I - 15 INNOVATION THROUGH COLLABORATION, DESMAN SUCCESS BY DESIGN Design Management
work plan for this phase of the project may change as the project progresses. However, at this time, DESMAN proposes the following:
Task III.1: Develop and Evaluate Solutions and Initiatives – Based on the preceding analyses, DESMAN will prepare a series of proposed initiatives to address each issue identified. These initiatives may include tasks such as: • Optimizing parking availability; • Revising municipal parking policy as it applies to new development or redevelopment; • Recommendations for parking rate changes for on-street and off-street facilities; • Programs to control non-resident parking in residential neighborhoods; • Techniques to improve access to accessible parking spaces. • Recommendations for fees and types of parking violations; • Recommendations for expanding the opportunities for parking; • Recommendations to improve parking meter and facility access control technologies, if appropriate; Revising existing municipal parking policy as it applies to enforcement and collections; • Programs to promote shared parking between the Town and private owners; • Recommend initiatives to improve wayfinding and reduce search times in high-demand areas; • Programs to improve acceptance and use of ride-sharing, car-sharing services, transit, biking, walking, and other alternative modes of transportation;
As each initiative is developed, DESMAN will identify: 1. What problem or issue the initiative addresses; 2. The estimated capital and/or operating costs associated with implementing the solution; 3. Any potential revenue gains associated with implementation; 4. The relative social/political liabilities and benefits associated with implementation, and; 5. The community objectives/goals/values the option supports.
Task III.2: Test Options with the Steering Committee and theTown DESMAN will organize the developed solutions into a work paper to be issued to the Town staff, and steering committee for review.
Task III.3 Public Forums – We will reconvene with public forums conducted in Task I.3 to report back to the stakeholders our alternatives and recommendations. We will revise our recommendations based on feedback from the forums.
Task III.4: Prepare and Present Final Plan – DESMAN will revise the work papers into a formal report. This report will include: • A synopsis of the public engagement process; • A summary of field work and analysis; • A summary of current and future conditions;
TOWN OF NORMAL, IL 1| SCOPE OF SERVICES REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL FOR UPTOWN PARKING ANALYSIS & STRATEGIC PLAN 12 Packet Pg. I - 16 INNOVATION THROUGH COLLABORATION, DESMAN SUCCESS BY DESIGN Design Management
• A synopsis of anticipated issues; • A synopsis of proposed solutions; • A recommended timeline for implementation of each solution; • Action steps necessary prior to implementation, and; • Responsible parties for each action step.
DESMAN will submit this plan to the Steering Committee and Town for initial comment, revise as necessary, and issue a final plan for use and dissemination. If needed, DESMAN will also attend a Town Council meeting or other appropriate public meeting to present the final plan. The following are additional tasks which might be added or substituted for tasks which the Town could provide.
Alternative Tasks • Parking Turnover Survey • On-line Opinion Survey
Parking Turnover Survey – We would study and document the turnover of vehicles in selected parking facilities and key on-street locations. This would provide additional support to changes in rates, and duration.
On-line Opinion Survey – As an added stakeholder technique, we would recommend an on-line opinion survey to be conducted during the initial phase of the study. This would enable us to obtain additional input from residents and quests. The survey would be advertised on social media and/or handbills placed on parked vehicles.

Town Council Action Report
August 2, 2021
Resolution Authorizing the Renewal of the Employee Group Health, Dental, Life/AD&D Insurance Program
Prepared By: Jenny Keigher, Director of Human Resources Reviewed By: Pamela S. Reece, City Manager and Eric Hanson, Assistant City Manager Staff Recommendation: Approval Attachments: Proposed Resolution, Historic Rate Table, Premium Contribution Spreadsheet
Community Impact A comprehensive benefits package is a key recruitment and retention tool for the Town of Normal. The group health, dental, and life insurance are important components of the overall benefits package, and the renewal and management of these plans will sustain the value of the Town’s benefit offerings. Providing quality insurance to Town employees and their dependents reinforces employee engagement and workplace satisfaction. Healthy employees are most able to provide important services to residents efficiently and safely.
Budget Impact The FY2021-22 budget projected an 8% increase in rates for January 1, 2022. The proposed 17% increase effective January 1, 2022 will result in approximately $88,500 in additional costs in the 2021-22 fiscal year.
Strategic Alignment
Packet Pg. J - 2
Background The Town offers a group health insurance program for full time and regular part time employees. Pre-65 retired employees are also eligible to participate in the group health insurance program, while post-65 retirees are eligible for the Benistar Medicare Supplement program. The group insurance program is self-insured, meaning that the premiums paid by the Town, employees and covered retirees are deposited into the Health Insurance Fund to pay claims and fixed costs. In preparation for renewal of the group insurance program, staff has worked closely with broker Mike Wojcik and his team at The Horton Group to review areas where the current plan design is working well and to explore opportunities to improve offerings and value to Town employees, while balancing cost considerations for the Town. Horton then performs vital work in negotiating the most advantageous rates and agreements between the Town and insurance carriers.
Discussion HEALTH INSURANCE The health insurance plan has undergone several plan-level changes in recent years in an effort to contain costs, provide quality coverage, and remain competitive with comparable organizations. This includes limiting enrollment in the $50 deductible PPO and then ending that plan effective January 1, 2020, offering a Medicare Supplement to post-65 retirees and spouses in January 2018, and adopting step therapy and prior authorization strategies to encourage conscientious healthcare consumption.
The self-insured group plan is available to all full-time employees; regular part-time employees; retirees who are under 65; and their eligible dependents. Retirees and their covered dependents who are 65 and over are eligible for a Medicare Supplement program. Participants may choose between a PPO or a High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP); the deductible for single coverage is $500 on the PPO and $2800 on the HDHP.
During the previous renewal cycle culminating in August 2020, the health plan had experienced a reduction in claims activity. Many health insurance programs had a reduction in claims during this time, which is attributable to the COVID-19 shutdown: during this period, individuals tended to cancel or defer medical care that was not immediately necessary. The unfortunate consequence to deferred or canceled medical care is that more affordable and timely interventions may be missed. By the time that care is finally sought, small health issues with low-cost remedies have escalated in the level and cost of care needed.
The Town plan currently has a significant level of claimants who are considered “high-cost claimants.” Additionally, several large claimants are considered “repeat claimants” who have incurred claims over $150,000 several years in a row. The repeat nature of these claims year over year yields a less favorable renewal on the Town’s fixed costs because insurance underwriters assume the plan will continue to sustain greater risk. Due to the nature of these health conditions, there is a likelihood that the high-cost claim trend will continue for this repeat population.
Packet Pg. J - 3
The Town maintains specific stop-loss insurance for the group health plan to address these high-cost claimants. Specific stop-loss is a form of excess risk coverage that provides protection for a self-funded employer against high claims on any one individual. The specific stop-loss amount of coverage for the Town is $150,000; costs above this amount are paid by the stop-loss reinsurer, and costs below $150,000 are borne by the health fund. The Town has used Blue Cross Blue Shield of Illinois as the reinsurance carrier for several years.
The Horton Group and Town staff have explored shifting the current plan away from Blue Cross Blue Shield to United Medical Resources (UMR) for the coming plan year. UMR is a third-party administrator (TPA) owned by United Healthcare (UHC) and is the largest TPA in the country for health insurance.
This move is favorable to the Town’s insurance group for several reasons: • Allows Town to shop for reinsurance coverage (which BCBS does not permit) • Allows Town to shop for Pharmacy Benefit Managers (which BCBS does not permit) • 16-Month contract allows Town to shift to a January 1 plan renewal cycle at UMR renewal rates and terms preferable to the terms that were offered by BCBS
Reinsurance: As noted, the Town’s costs for reinsurance have escalated in recent years due to ongoing high claimants. BCBS has changed requirements effective this year for which insurance groups may “shop out” reinsurance coverage. Previously, the Town was able to shop this coverage; although BCBS was the selected provider of coverage, the Town’s ability to negotiate costs based on other offers – and based on the threat of the loss of business – was a driver in reinsurance premium savings. Now, BCBS does not allow groups of the Town’s size to shop outside for reinsurance coverage; rather, utilization of BCBS’s reinsurance product would be required.
Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs): Similar to the restrictions listed for shopping reinsurance, BCBS does not allow plans of the Town’s size to use any PBM other than their affiliated Prime Therapeutics. Prescription cost management is key to controlling risk, and this inability to seek competitive contracts from alternate PBMs is a major hurdle to the Town’s efforts to curtail future costs.
16-Month Contract: The Town has a unique contract design in that the plan year runs from September 1 to August 31 of each benefit year. However, the benefit period follows a calendar year starting on January 1 of each year (i.e. when deductibles, out-of-pocket maximums, etc. reset). Aligning the plan year with the benefit period will simplify plan administration and budgeting for the Health Insurance Fund.
UMR was able to provide the most competitive rates in comparison with our current plan while also addressing each of these considerations. The UMR proposal quotes rates for reinsurance from Symetra and PBM services from Costco Health Solutions. The medical insurance quote assumes the use of the UHC Choice+ network, which is a robust, nationwide network of medical providers and facilities. Horton has performed disruption analysis for both the proposed Choice+ medical network and Costco Health Solutions pharmacy coverage; they found that all employees would retain appropriate access to medical and pharmacy services with these new carriers. Notably, Costco Health Solutions pharmacy network includes many nationwide chains (e.g. Walgreens, CVS, etc.) in addition to smaller pharmacies and its in- store Costco locations. Packet Pg. J - 4
Town employees remain highly engaged in the annual health risk appraisal process, which gives all Town employees and their spouses who are covered by the group insurance program the opportunity to participate in a comprehensive health assessment (including a full blood panel and health risk questionnaire). The Town receives only aggregate data from this process, and based on results, staff can tailor wellness program initiatives to address the greatest needs of employees, with help from an interactive online portal. This year, 99% of eligible employees and spouses participated in the assessment; participation over the past three plan years has been 99% or greater. This level of engagement highlights employee and spouse investment in their health and their understanding of the value of the insurance and wellness programs.
Utilizing the defined contribution model, the premiums for FY2020-21 are based upon the Town’s contribution to the $500 deductible PPO plan. The premium structures for both the $500 PPO and the HDHP options are shown in the attachment. Staff and Horton suggest the Town again provide a flat dollar amount, or seed, in the Health Savings Accounts for employees who choose the HDHP. The seed amount proposed is also reflected in the attached premium table.
The management strategy of the Health Insurance Reserve Fund has been to maintain a reserve balance equal to the three highest expense months from the most recently closed fiscal year. Given changes in expenditure activity, the target reserve level changes from year to year. Due to the challenging claims year, the reserve fund is currently lower than target. While actuarial analysis predicted a per capita expense of $12,889 for the current plan year, the actual year-to-date per capita is $16,023. High-cost claimants, increased specialty pharmacy costs, and escalating retiree claims are all contributing to this increase. Based on Horton’s analysis, staff recommends that Council authorize the FY2021-22 renewal with a 17% total premium equivalent increase.
DENTAL INSURANCE The group Dental Insurance program is operating in a solid position. Like the other group insurance program benefits, Horton evaluated the market and sought quotations for dental insurance; Blue Cross Blue Shield, Guardian, MetLife and incumbent vendor, Delta Dental, provided quotations. Staff recommends retaining Delta Dental as the group dental plan insurance provider. Delta Dental’s participating provider organization is very strong in this region, and Delta’s customer service team has provided excellent ongoing service to staff. There are no plan design changes recommended this year.
The dental insurance program continues to be a very popular benefit, providing good quality coverage at a reasonable price. Staff is not recommending any premium change in the dental program.
VISION INSURANCE The Town currently utilizes VSP as the vision insurance carrier for this benefit. Vision insurance is not managed by Horton but is purchased through the Town’s membership in the Heartland Healthcare Coalition. These premiums are locked in through coalition-preferred pricing, and there are no plan design changes recommended at this time. Vision premiums are paid 100% by employees.
GROUP LIFE AND AD&D INSURANCE The Town’s Life and AD&D insurance vendor is Standard Insurance. In preparation for renewal, Horton evaluated the market and received a proposal from one additional vendor (BCBS), after soliciting quotations from a total of four carriers; Horton attributes the low response rate of additional vendors to Packet Pg. J - 5
the fact that the current rates with Standard are very competitive. Standard continues to provide high quality and the most competitive rates; therefore, no changes in the Life & AD&D program are recommended. No premium changes are currently required.
CONCLUSION Each of the above recommendations for the 2021-22 renewal have been thoroughly reviewed with the Employee Insurance Committee. In recent years, the Committee has played an invaluable role in advocating for employee benefits and relaying important information to Town staff. We greatly appreciate the role that Committee has served in preparing for these group insurance plan initiatives.
Staff recommends Council approval of the 2021-22 group insurance benefit program as presented. The new rates will be effective January 1, 2022.
In summary, staff recommendations are: • Health insurance renewal with UMR – 17% premium increase • Dental insurance renewal with Delta Dental – 0% increase • Life and AD&D renewal with Standard – 0% increase

Packet Pg. 7 - 2
Background The Budget Review Committee adjusts all budget line items, based on current year spending estimates, during the month of November. Those adjustments are presented to the Council as part of the proposed budget document in January. However, formal Council approval for all budget adjustments is required upon the conclusion of the fiscal year. Staff delays submission of these budget adjustments to Council until all final year-end adjustments are processed. Below are some of the reasons for this planned delay.
• Between March 31 and May 30, the Finance Department converts the cash basis reports to an accrual based reporting system. • The auditors conduct an on-site review of all accounting records and reports in June. • Budget adjustments related to the accrual process occur during the audit. • An audit partner review of all final reports is conducted upon completion of the audit. Although very unusual, this final review could generate accounting adjustments.
Discussion Town Wide Revenue Budget
• Total Original Budgeted Revenue = $133,837,865 • Total Ending Budgeted Revenue = $140,993,149 • Net increase for FY2020-21 = $7,155,284
The significant adjustments that created the $7.2 million revenue increase in the Town’s budget (all funds) primarily relates to transactions associated with the Debt Service Project Reserve Fund, Vehicle and Equipment Replacement Fund, Motor Fuel Tax Fund and the General Fund. Below is more explanation of these adjustments.
Revenue/Transfers In – Increases
• $3.7 million – Debt Service and Project Reserve Fund (DSPR): As part of the budget process, surplus funds were moved to the DSPR Fund to support paying down bonds in FY2022-23. • $3.2 million – Vehicle and Equipment Replacement Fund (VE): As part of the budget process, surplus funds were moved to the VE Fund to help balance the General Fund budget in the out years. • $1.8 million - Motor Fuel Tax Fund: This increase relates to additional funds from the State for the “Rebuild Illinois” program. • $889,000 – Library Reserve Fund: This increase relates to a transfer of operating surplus from the Library’s operating fund into its special reserve fund. • $655,000 – Community Development Fund: This increase relates to rolling over Federal grant funds to the new fiscal year.
Packet Pg. 7 - 3
Revenue/Transfers In – Decreases
• $1.5 million - General Fund: This net decrease in revenue budget is a function of several significant adjustments as a result of the economic impact of COVID. Revenue budget decreases in total equaled $6.3 million over 70 different lines of revenue for the Town. These included major lines of revenue, such as sales tax, hotel motel, food and beverage, museum and pool admissions, parking fees and refuse collection. Smaller revenue lines were also affected, such as youth and teen programs, various park rental programs and swim lessons. In addition to these decreases in budget, there were also significant increases in revenue budgets that help offset much of economic impact of COVID. These related to Federal COVID relief grant funds and a variety of permit fees associated with development and expansion of Rivian. • $424,000 - Roadway Fund: This reduction relates to reducing the transfer from General Fund to the Roadway Fund to further offset the economic impact of COVID on the Town’s core operation and services. • $396,000 - Fire Pension Fund: This relates to decreasing some of the pension fund investment earnings (fixed income) due to the economic impact of COVID. • $278,000 - Police Pension Fund: This relates to decreasing some of the pension fund investment earnings (fixed income) due to the economic impact of COVID.
Town Wide Expenditure Budget
• Total Original Budgeted Expenditure = $136,516,388 • Total Ending Budgeted Expenditure = $144,950,312 • Net increase for FY2020-21 = $8,433,924
The significant adjustments that created the net $8.4 million expenditure increase in the Town’s budget (all funds) was primarily related to unspent capital funds from FY2019-20 carried over and re-budgeted in FY2020-21. Below is a summary of the major budget increases and decreases in the Town wide Expenditure budget.
Expenditure Increases
• $2.2 million – Motor Fuel Tax Fund: This increase is related to budget carryover of projects from FY2019-20 to FY2020-21. • $1.7 million – Stormwater Management Fund: This increase is related to budget carryover of projects from FY2019-20 to FY2020-21. • $740,000 – General Fund: This increase is primarily budget carryover of projects from FY2019-20 to FY2020-21 for Facilities Management, and Innovation and Technology departments. • $688,000 – Capital Investment Fund: This increase is primarily budget carryover of projects from FY2019-20 to FY2020-21. • $655,000 – Community Development Grant Fund: This increase is primarily budget carryover of grant projects from FY2019-20 to FY2020-21. • $563,000 – Police Pension Fund: Increase related to service pension payments. • $482,000 – Roadway Fund: This increase is related to budget carryover of projects from FY2019- 20 to FY2020-21. Packet Pg. 7 - 4
Expenditure Decreases
• $348,000 – Water Fund: Reduction in budget for various operating and contractual supply needs.
FY2020-21 General Fund Results
Spendable fund balance in the General Fund for budgetary purposes for FY2019-20 equaled $13.5 million. The Finance Department is in the process of finalizing the FY2020-21 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (AFR) and we estimate that the year-end fund balance for the General Fund will be approximately $12.0 million for budgetary purposes. This $1.5 million decrease/deficit is favorable compared to the $2.3 million deficit expected for FY2020-21, as part of the preparation of the FY2021-22 adopted budget.
The economic impacts of COVID made FY2020-21 an unprecedented fiscal year for the Town. Revenues sources were significantly impacted, expenditure lines were cut more than in any of the Town’s history and Federal/State grant aid were received. All of this had major impacts on the Town’s financial position and created significant challenges in projecting the timing and extent of those impacts. This created a constant resetting and modification of the Town’s projected financial position during the fiscal year.
Summary of Budget/Fiscal Position
The adopted General Fund budget for FY2020-21 reported a small surplus of $35,807 and was essentially a budget that was planned and programmed prior to COVID. During the last quarter of FY2019-20 (January to March 2020), staff started to plan modifications to the FY2020-21 budget in anticipation of the pending economic impact of the global pandemic. Revenue and expenditure budgets projected pre- COVID needed to be significantly changed. Budget actions and discussion with Council regarding management of the Town’s financial position started near the end of FY2019-20 and continued through all of FY2020-21. With the adoption of the current budget (FY2021-22) a new “official” estimate for FY2020-21 was established, moving it from a pre-COVID surplus of $35,807 to a COVID projected deficit of $2.5 million. As Council recalls, several fiscal actions were taken that ultimately created this projected $2.5 million deficit for FY2020-21.
General Fund Revenue Lines
Revenue budget lines related to Parks and Recreation programs, Cultural Arts, sales tax, hotel/motel tax, and food & beverage tax were reduced by $6.3 million due to the economic impacts of COVID. However, other revenue lines related to COVID relief grants, use tax and permit fees were increased by $4.7 million. This created a net total budget revenue decrease in the General Fund of $1.6 million.
General Fund Expenditure Lines
In the early periods of FY2020-21, the revenue picture looked very grim and any Federal or State government relief was uncertain. In response to the known facts and expected continued economic challenge from COVID, the Town cut $8.2 million in expenses. The combination of a better-than- expected revenue budget (only a $1.6 million decrease) and the significant expenditure cuts of $8.2 million created an estimated surplus of $6.6 million for FY2020-21, as part of the FY2021-22 budget Packet Pg. 7 - 5
process. Given the significant cuts and better-than-expected revenue picture, the Town chose to set aside $8.9 million of budget resources for future needs. Of that total, $4.0 million was transferred to the Town’s debt sinking fund and $4.9 million was transferred to the Town Vehicle and Equipment Replacement Fund. The $4.0 million will support paying down debt in FY2022-23 and the $4.9 million will help balance the uncertain long-term recovery of a post-COVID economy.
All of these numbers are locked down and approved as part of the FY2021-22 adopted budget which includes a final estimate for FY2020-21, prior to closing out FY2020-21. Typically, staff does not expect much change from the final estimate made and the actual close of the fiscal year. However, not dissimilar to the radical fiscal changes experienced from COVID, actual revenue numbers in the final quarter of FY2020-21 were significantly stronger than projected. This, coupled with additional savings in expenditure budgets, further enhanced the Town’s fiscal year position at 3/31/2021. This allowed staff to set aside another $3.8 million into the Town’s debt sinking fund.
These funds all represent a strong cash position at 3/31/2021, that is currently planned to pay down debt, and support the Town’s long-term recovery from COVID in future budget years. Council will have an opportunity, as part of the FY2022-23 budget process, to review and consider any re-prioritization of those funds, given new revenue estimates, economic recovery from COVID and expenditure needs for FY2022-23 and beyond.

Ordinance Vacating the Public Right-of-Way (Electric Avenue)
Prepared By: Mercy Davison, Town Planner Reviewed By: Pamela S. Reece, City Manager, Brian Day, Corporation Counsel, and Ryan Otto, Director of Public Works
Staff Recommendation: Approval Attachments: Proposed Ordinance; Aerial Map; Proposed Right-of-Way Vacation
Community Impact Public right-of-way may be vacated when such right-of-way no longer serves the purpose of providing public access to a property. As part of the process, existing public and private utilities can be protected within an easement, which provides access to the utility providers when necessary for repair or replacement. By vacating the right-of-way, the Town is no longer responsible for maintenance, including snow plowing and street repair.
Budget Impact None

Background Electric Avenue is a public street that provides access to the Rivian property on Rivian Motorway. This street right-of-way is flanked on the north and south by Rivian properties and dead ends to the east at a property not owned by Rivian.
At this time, Rivian is requesting that the Town vacate the right-of-way so that they may install a security building in the center of Electric Avenue and security fencing across the street.
The Electric Avenue right-of-way is approximately 2,500 feet in length and 2.033 acres in size. The proposed vacation plat includes the designation of a utility easement encompassing the entire current right-of-way. This will ensure that all utilities currently located within the area will be protected and accessible to the utility owner. This includes a Town of Normal public water main.
The non-Rivian property at the east end of the current Electric Avenue right-of-way is zoned for industry but used for agriculture at this time. Because of an intervening railroad track and security fencing on Electric Avenue, the right-of-way does not actually provide access to this agricultural property. Rather, the agricultural property is accessed by a platted ingress/egress easement to West College Avenue. Thus, if the Town Council vacates the Electric Avenue right-of-way, the property owner to the east will continue to have access from West College Avenue.
Discussion Vacating the Electric Avenue right-of-way will simplify Rivian’s plans for adding a security building and security fencing while eliminating a Town obligation to plow and maintain the street. Electric Avenue serves no public purpose, as it only provides access to the Rivian property. In addition, there is no detriment to the property owner to the east, who would continue to have access from West College Avenue.

Resolution Reapproving the Kelley Glen PUD Preliminary Development Plan (Henry and Raab)
Prepared By: Mercy Davison, Town Planner Reviewed By: Pamela S. Reece, City Manager, Brian Day, Corporation Counsel, Greg Troemel, Director of Inspections
Staff Recommendation: Approval Attachments: Proposed Resolution; Aerial Map; Preliminary Development Plan
Community Impact By reapproving the Preliminary Development Plan for the Kelley Glen PUD, the Town Council will permit the build-out of a residential subdivision in north Normal. The Comprehensive Plan supports residential development in this area and the economic vitality that stems from a thriving residential market. This is particularly important as demand for residential development has dramatically increased in recent months.

Background Located at the southeast corner of Henry Street and Raab Road, the Kelley Glen PUD was approved as a Preliminary PUD in March 2003 (Res. No. 3281). The Phase 1 Final Development Plan was approved in October 2003 (Res. No. 3408). In the following years, the Preliminary PUD was amended, and the 1st and 2nd Additions of the Kelley Glen PUD were approved (Res. Nos. 3942 and 3972, respectively). At this time, the developer has requested that the Preliminary Development Plan be reapproved so that development may continue.
Per Sec. 15.9-4(C)(7) of the Zoning Code, Preliminary Development Plans are only valid for two years unless the Town Council acts to extend the time period or if a final development plan has been filed, in which case the Preliminary Plan is valid for another two years. The most recent final plat to be approved for the Kelley Glen PUD was the 2nd Addition in 2007 (Res. No. 3972). The most recent amendment to the Kelley Glen Final Development Plan was in 2014 (Res. No. 4970). Because these actions were more than 2 years ago, the Preliminary Development Plan is now expired, and the developer cannot move forward with another final plat until the Preliminary Development Plan is reapproved.
Presuming the Town Council reapproves the Kelley Glen Preliminary Development Plan, the Town Council would be able to approve the 3rd Addition with the following Council action.
Discussion
The early additions of the Kelley Glen PUD developed steadily after the approval of the Preliminary Development Plan, but new housing starts have been very slow in recent years. In the meantime, the Preliminary Development Plan has expired. In order to facilitate the build-out of this neighborhood, the Preliminary Development Plan must be reapproved.
For this reason, Town staff recommends the Town Council reapprove the Preliminary Development Plan for the Kelley Glen PUD.

WHEREAS, The developer now seeks approval of the 3rd Addition to the PUD.
WHEREAS, Under section 15.9-4(C)(7) of the Town Code, a preliminary development plan is valid for two years unless extended by Council or a final development plan has been filed, which extends the preliminary plan for another two years.

Prepared By: Mercy Davison, Town Planner Reviewed By: Pamela S. Reece, City Manager, Brian Day, Corporation Counsel, Ryan Otto, Director of Public Works
Staff Recommendation: Conditional Approval Attachments: Proposed Resolution; Aerial Map; Proposed Final Plat
Community Impact The process of subdividing land and recording final plats are foundational components of the orderly growth and development of any community, as subdivisions and recorded final plats delineate property boundaries, public rights-of-way, utility corridors, and the like. The Planned Unit Development process is an alternative to the conventional subdivision process but serves the same ultimate purpose. Furthermore, the continued development of the Kelley Glen PUD will help meet the current increasing demand for housing in Normal.

Background Presuming the Town Council reapproved the Kelley Glen PUD Preliminary Development Plan in its previous action, it would now be appropriate for the Town Council to take action on the proposed Final Plat of the Kelley Glen PUD 3rd Addition.
As more fully explained in the previous Council Report, the Kelley Glen PUD is located at the southeast corner of Henry and Raab Road. The entire PUD is approximately 53.8 acres in size, but to date only the 25 +/- acres on the west side have been annexed.
At this time, the developer is requesting approval of the Final Plat of Kelley Glen PUD 3rd Addition. The proposed final plat includes 12 lots for single-family detached homes on land encompassing approximately 2.85 acres. This represents the remaining ground within the annexed portion of the Kelley Glen PUD. Appropriate utility easements and the public right-of-way for Duncannon Drive and Galway Court are included.
Discussion Approval of the Final Plat for Kelley Glen PUD 3rd Addition would permit a longstanding subdivision to continue to build out. The Comprehensive Plan supports residential construction in this area.
For these reasons, Town staff recommends the Town Council conditionally approve the Final Plat for the Kelley Glen PUD 3rd Addition.

An Ordinance Amending the Bloomington Normal Enterprise Zone Designating Ordinance and Authorizing the Approval of an Intergovernmental Agreement Regarding the Zone
Prepared By: Pamela S. Reece, City Manager Reviewed By: Eric Hanson, Assistant City Manager and Brian Day, Corporation Counsel Staff Recommendation: Approval Attachments: Proposed Ordinance
Community Impact The Enterprise Zone Program is designed to stimulate economic growth and community revitalization through state and local tax incentives to support and promote business growth and create jobs. Creating and approving a region wide set of standardized incentives allows for the continued promotion and support of business development while ensuring a level playing field throughout the area will benefit all communities within the Bloomington-Normal zone. This action further demonstrates the strong partnership of the entire B-N region and our approach to attracting and retaining businesses.
Budget Impact N/A
Strategic Alignment
Packet Pg. 11 - 2
Background The Enterprise Zone Program was created by the Illinois Legislature in 1982 as a joint state and local incentive program that could be tailored to each community’s development needs. Some zones sought industrial development while others targeted residential or commercial growth. The Bloomington, Normal, McLean County Enterprise Zone was created in December 1984 to help attract Diamond Star Motors to the community. While the zone provided incentives to Diamond Star, the Enterprise Zone was designed to help stimulate additional development, including likely suppliers to the auto facility.
The Enterprise Zone provides economic incentives to commercial companies undertaking new investments, including facility expansion, renovation, and other qualified improvements. The Enterprise Zone may award several incentives to businesses in the zone boundaries including:
• Sales tax exemption on building materials • Sales tax exemption on personal property used or consumed during the manufacturing process • Utility tax exemption on gas and electricity and administrative share on telecom excise tax • Investment tax credit on qualified investments • Natural gas tax exemption for Wheeling • Real estate property tax abatement eligibility if approved by local units of government
The Enterprise Zone has been amended and/or extended numerous times to assist a variety of other commercial developments throughout McLean County and into neighboring Ford County.
That original Enterprise Zone expired in May 2016 and a new Enterprise Zone designation was approved and certified by the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity effective January 1, 2017.
Since 2019, Town staff has been working closely with other taxing bodies and with the Economic Development Council to coordinate standardized incentives which can be incorporated into the Enterprise Zone. Standardized incentives are used extensively as an effective economic development tool.
Discussion The proposed ordinance recommends adoption of an intergovernmental agreement between the Enterprise Zone designating agencies and identifies the proposed incentive program. A high-level summary of the standardized incentive program is as follows:
1. Purpose – the purpose of the intergovernmental agreement is to organize and coordinate the efforts of the designating units in supporting the Enterprise Zone under the provisions of the Enterprise Zone Act (20 ILCS 655/)
2. Administrator – The President/CEO of the Economic Development Council serves as the zone administrator and is responsible for monitoring performance of grantees (projects eligible for incentives)
Packet Pg. 11 - 3
3. Zone Advisory Board – directors of the Bloomington Normal EDC, the County Board Chair of Ford County and the Mayor of Gibson City comprise the Advisory Board
4. Eligible Project – commercial projects that meet all the following criteria: a. Located within the zone b. Consists of new improvements c. Results in the creation of 25 or more FTE jobs which will be maintained through the abatement period d. Results in the investment of $250,000 or more in new improvements
5. Significant Impact Businesses means a non-retail project that meets one or more of the following: a. Conducts the majority of its operations in one or more of the following industries: agribusiness; logistics and warehousing; information technology; information technology manufacturing; clean technology manufacturing; finance; insurance; or real estate b. Will create jobs with an average income across all new positions that is greater than the per-capita income level of the county in which the project is located c. The project will be located in a targeted area designated by the municipality or county; targeted areas may include officially-designated brownfields, distressed areas, opportunity zones, designated “shovel-ready” sites or similar areas d. Will derive more than 65% of its revenue from foreign exports
6. Property Tax Abatement for Retail Projects: A retail project is eligible to receive a 3-year property tax abatement as follows: i. First taxable year = 100% of the abatement increment; and ii. Second taxable year = 75% of the abatement increment; and iii. Third taxable year = 50% of the abatement increment
7. Property Tax Abatement for Non-Retail Projects: A non-retail project is eligible to receive a 5- year property tax abatement as follows: i. First taxable year = 100% of the abatement increment ii. Second taxable year = 80% of the abatement increment iii. Third taxable year = 60% of the abatement increment iv. Fourth taxable year = 40% of the abatement increment v. Fifth taxable year = 20% of the abatement increment
8. Additional Non-Retail Project Incentive Payment – for each year that a non-retail project receives an abatement, that project may also receive an additional incentive payment if the project meets one or more of the following criteria. The amount of the incentive will equal 20% of the abatement increment for each of the criteria met up to a maximum of 100% for that taxable year. a. At least 80% of the workers hired to construct or renovate the new improvements have their primary residence in McLean or Ford County and have completed a Department of Labor Industry-Recognized Apprenticeship Program b.
