DATE: April 11,2024

SUBJECT: MANAGER'S REPORT
 BOARD MEETING OF MONDAY, APRIL 15,2024

A. Establishment of 25 mph Speed Limit: Kostner Avenue from Oakton Street
 to Main Street
 Inquiries and concerns have been received regarding the safety of the subject
 street section. The speed ilmit along Kostner Avenue between Oakton and Main
 Street is currently posted at 30 mph. Crash history, field inspections, and sight
 distance evaluation was conducted along this stretch. Speed data was collected
 using various Village equipment over the past year. The median speed within the
 subject corridor averaged 21 mph. The 85th percentile speed was 26 mph within
 the corridor. Speeding is considered a problem if the 85th percentile speed is more
 than 5 mph over the posted speed limit. Kostner Avenue is in an R-1 Single
 Family Zoned Residential District. The road is wide enough to just accommodate
 one vehicle in each direction. Adjacent to the road, the area consists of sidewalk,
 parkway, and residential homes. These roads are typically designed for lower
 speeds. It is the recommendation of the Engineering Director to reduce the speed
 limit on this stretch of Kostner Avenue to 25 mph. I concur with staff's
 recommendation and respectfully request Mayor and Board approval for
 Corporation Counsel to draft the enabling Ordinance.

B. Installation of AII-Wav Stop Sign at the Intersection of Kostner Avenue and
 Keeney Street.
 In order to access safety, traffic controls were reviewed by the Engineering staff at
 the Kostner Avenue and Keeney Street Intersection. A study was conducted
 including accident data from 2019 through 2024, field observations made at the
 intersection, a review of the street network system, and sight distance evaluation.
 The main factor requiring attention is the crash data with five reported accidents in
 a twelve-month period. A multi-way stop control would improve traffic operational
 characteristics of this intersection and would benefit the motorists by improving
 safety and reducing the number of collisions. As a result, the Traffic Engineering
 Division recommends that a multi-way stop control be established at the
 intersection of Kostner Avenue and Keeney Street. I concur with the Traffic
 Engineering Division and respectfully request Mayor and Board approval to
 authorize Corporation Counsel to draft the enabling Ordinance.

*C. Excess Liability Coverane for Fiscal Year 2025 - Marsh/Allied World
 Assurance Company.
 The Village of Skokie's excess commercia! liability coverage policy expires on May
 1, 2024. The excess liability commercial marketplace remains the most volatile of
 all segments within the public entity insurance market, with many carriers
 reducing capacity or exiting the market altogether. Staff recommendation is
 acceptance of Marsh Old Republic/Genesis/Allied World Assurance Company
 quotation of $13 million excess combined coverage of the Village's $2 miliion
 retention at a premium of $707,188. Current market conditions are challenging.
 but the Village's self-insured program as structured has demonstrated for decades
 to be the most cost-effective approach in managing Village liability. If a less
 expensive quote for the Village is received prior to the deadline it will be executed.
 I concur with staff's recommendation that a contract be awarded to Marsh/Allied
 World Assurance Company in the amount of $707,188. Mayor and Board
 approval is respectfully requested.

*D. 2024 Non-Arterial Street Resurfacina Program - Schroeder & Schroeder,
 Inc, Skokie, Illinois - $4,753,500.
 This project provides for the resurfacing of approximately 4.24 miles of residential
 streets, which will include 21 streets within the Village. Motor Fuel Tax, Local Fuel
 Tax and Genera! Revenue will be used to fund the cost of the project. It is
 recommended that a contract be awarded to Schroeder & Schroeder, Inc., the
 lowest responsive and responsible bidder, in the amount of $4,753,500. This firm
 is pre-qualified by the Illinois Department of Transportation and has worked with
 the Village on numerous resurfacing projects with satisfactory results. I concur
 with staff's recommendation and respectfully request Mayor and Board approval.

*E. Construction Materiai Testing & Inspection Services for Village of Skokie
 Infrastructure Projects ~ Construction and Geotechnical Material Testing,
 Inc. (CGMT), Elk Grpve, IHinpis " $95.120.
 Four bids were received for the above project. The cost of this material testing is
 included in the budget amount for various projects. It is recommended that a
 contract be awarded to Construction & Geotechnica! Material Testing, Inc.,
 (CGMT) the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, in the amount of
 $95,120. CGMT provided material testing services for Skokie in the past with
 satisfactory results. I concur with staff's recommendation and respectfully request
 Mayor and Board approval.

*F. Police Department Patrol Rifles - Acme Sports Inc., Seymour, Indiana -
 $54,540.
 The FY24 CIP budget contains funding for the replacement of Police Department
 Patrol Rifles. It is recommended that a contract be awarded for the purchase of 60
 Sig Sauer M400 brand rifles to Acme Sports Inc., (ASI) the lowest responsive and
 responsible bidder, in the amount of $54,540. While the Village has not worked
 with AS! in the past, the company has an excellent reputation as a supplier to
 multiple law enforcement entities. The current rifles are beyond their useful life
 and are in need of modernization. The remaining money in the CIP will be used to
 purchase much needed accessories and optics. I concur with the

 recommendation of the Police Chief and respectfully request Mayor and Board
 approval.


'G. North Shore Center for the Performing Arts (NSCPA) Front Canopy Fabric
 Panels - Evanston Awning Company, Evanston, Illinois - $51,000,
 The FY24 Capital improvement Program (CIP) Budget contains funding for the
 rehabilitation of NSCPA's various exteriors. The canopy above the front entrance
 on the west side features an architectural installation of 15 fabric panels mounted
 on large framing structures originally produced and installed by Evanston Awning
 Co. in 2004. Exposure to the elements and severe weather have damaged many
 of canopies and 8 of the panels were removed and are beyond repair. As the
 producer of the custom fabric panels, Evanston Awning Co. was contacted for a
 proposal to manufacture and install 15 new panels. The current panels will be
 removed and the new panels wi!l be installed using the existing hardware and
 framing, ft is recommended that a contract in the amount of $51,000 be awarded
 to Evanston Awning Co. I concur with staff's recommendation and respectfully
 request Mayor and Board approva!.

Subject: AGENDA ITEM
 Establishment of 25 MPH Speed Limit at Kostner Avenue: Oakton Street to
 Main Street

The Village ofSkokie has received inquiries and concerns regarding the subject street section.
They have been investigated and studied and following is pertinent information and a
recommendation.


Kostner Avenue is considered a collector residential street in the village network. Kostner Avenue
between Oakton Street and Main Street follows an alternating stop pattern along this stretch with
the end of the sections ending under stop control at Oakton Street and at Main Street. The speed
limit along the corridor is currently posted at 30 MPH. Crash history, field inspections, and sight
distance evaluation was conducted along this stretch. Speed data was collected using various
Village equipment over the last year. The 85th percentile speed is typically used to determine the
speed at which drivers feel safe traveling based on the road characteristics. This number may also
be used to determine speed limits. The median speed within the corridor averaged 21 MPH. The
85th percentile speed within the corridor averaged 26 MPH. These speeds are below 30 MPH and 5
MPH within 25 MPH.

Speeding is considered a problem if the 85th percentile speed is more than 5 mph over the posted
speed limit. However, there is a perception of "speeding vehicles". For informational puqposes, the
selected speed limit can be adjusted based on situations such as pedestrian safety, parking, access
control, road characteristics, review of the recorded 85th percentile etc. Kostner Avenue is in an R-l
Single Family Zoned Residential District. This situation is similar to certain other collector Village
streets in residential areas in the Village that had the speed limit reduced with satisfactory results.
Kostner Avenue is roughly 35-37 feet in width with parking allowed on both sides of the road. The
road is wide enough to just accommodate one vehicle in each direction. Adjacent to the road, the
area consists of sidewalk, parkway, and residential homes. These roads are typically designed for
lower speeds.


I recommend that Kostaer Avenue for the sections described above have the speed limit set at 25
MPH. This would be consistent with other similar streets in residential areas such as St. Louis
Avenue, Lawndale Avenue, Laramie Avenue, Greenwood and Lockwood Avenue, and, with
enforcement, will have a positive effect on the operating characteristics of the street sections.


In summary, I recommend review, approval, and passage of ordinance for:
 • Establishment of 25 MPH for Kostner Avenue; Oakton Street to Main Street.

Attached is a drawing depicting the subject location as well as speed data supporting the
recommendation.


Please present this before the April 15, 2024 Board of Trustees Meeting for approval and contact
me if there are any questions.

Subject: AGENDA ITEM
 Installation ofAll-Way Stop Sign at the Intersection ofKosfner Avenue and Keeney Street



The Engineering Division was contacted to review the traffic control at the mtersection ofKostner Avenue and Keeney Street. Data was
gathered at and near the intersection. The study has been completed, and it is the recommendation of the Engineering Division that the
existing two-way stop-controlled intersection be upgraded to an all-way stop controlled intersection.

Staff initiated the study in response to concerns of numerous vehicle accidents in the last two years. Our main goal in traffic is to improve
safety for all users of the road. To establish any controls, the guidelmes in the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD)
were followed. Staff has concerns about installing restrictive controls that do not meet the MUTCD guidelines. Stop signs are frequently
violated if unwarranted, some drivers become careless about stopping at them and this can be especially dangerous for pedestrians and
bicyclists who may have a false sense of safety from the presence of a stop sign. Some of the factors considered for installation of an
all-way stop sign are crash experience, sight distance, transition to signal control, eight-hour volume, and other factors determined by
engineering judgment. In the past the village has upgraded two-way controlled intersections to all-way control with positive results.

The study conducted for the subject intersection included accident data from 2019 through 2024, field observations made at the
intersection, a review of the street network system, and sight distance evaluation. The main factor that required attention is the crash
experience. There have been five reported accidents within a twelve-month period, and while four of the five angled collisions qualify
toward the MUTCD warrant, there remains accident potential. There have been four angled collisions reported within a twelve-month
period on three separate 12-month periods. These three different occasions occurred within the last two years. The data trend leans on
an increase of accidents occurrmg. Therefore, a multi-way stop control is recommended to established. A multi-way stop control would
improve traffic operational characteristics of this intersection and would benefit the motorists at this intersection by improving safety
and reducing the number of collisions. Attached is a table, exhibit, and supporting engineermg study.

As a result, the Traffic Engineering Division recommends that a multi-way stop control be established at the intersection of Kostner
Avenue and Keeney Street. Please present these matters before the Mayor and Board of Trustees at the April 15, 2024, Village Board
Meeting for their review, approval and authorization to pass the appropriate enabling ordinance.

SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM - April 15,2024 Board Meeting
 Construction Material Testing & Inspection Services
 Various Village infrastructure Projects



Bids for the above item were advertised and publicly opened on March 14, 2024. As a result,
four (4) responses were received:


Tabulation:
Construction & Geotechnlcal Material Testing, Inc., Elk Grove, IL $ 95,120.00
Soil & Material Consultants, Inc., Arlington Heights, IL $116,342.00
ECS Midwest, LLC., Buffalo Grove, IL $ 135,000.00
Nashnal Soil Testing, Plainfield, IL $ 178,270.00

The cost of this material testing is included in the budgeted amount for particular projects.
Material testing allows the Village to certify that the construction materials being supplied such
as asphalt and concrete meet the requirements as specified in the plans. Also, the State of Illinois
requires the reports generated by this testing at the end of projects that utilize state funding.

Recommendation:
It is recommended that a contract be awarded to Construction & Geotechnical Material
Testing, Inc., (CGMT) the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, which establishes the
material testing unit prices for Village construction projects. The Village has worked with
CGMT on previous material testing contracts.


Comments:
An important part of each public works construction project is the issue of quality assurance. In
order to assure that contractors are usmg quality materials in the execution of their work, testing
and inspection of concrete, asphalt, and soils is performed by specialized consultants.


Due to the large number of contracts that are funded by Illinois Motor Fuel Tax (MFT) revenues
and administered by the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT), the Village has requu-ed

all potential material testing contractors to have their laboratories DDOT certified. CGMT has the
IDOT required certification.

Accordingly, we respectfully request that this recommendation be presented to the Mayor and
Board of Trustees for approval at the April 15 , 2024 meeting.

 Michael Aleksic, Assistant Finance Director


DATE: April 8, 2024

SUBJECT: North Shore Center for the Performing Arts (NSCPA)
 Front Canopy Fabric Panels


Background:
The FY24 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) contains funding for the rehabilitation of
the NSCPA's various exteriors. The canopy above the facility's main entrance on the
west side features an architectural installation that originally consisted of 15 fabric panels
mounted on large framing structures. The panels and mounting hardware were originally
produced and installed by Evanston Awning Company in 2004. Due to constant
exposure to the elements and severe weather, many of the panels were damaged and torn.
Over the years, 8 of the panels were removed because they were beyond repair.


Recommendation:
As the producer of the custom fabric panels, Evanston Awning Co. was contacted for a
proposal to manufacture and install 15 new panels. It is recommended that a contract in
the amount $51,000 be awarded to Evanston Awning Co. The current panels will be
removed and new panels will be installed using the existing hardware and framing.


Comments:
The metal tubes and framing that supports the panels will be restored and coated as part
of a larger exterior painting project that was recently awarded. Upon completion of the
restoration, Evanston Awning will install the new panels.

 Additionally/ the Developer is planning to retain the existing clinic at 5230 Old Orchard Road
 and convert the upper deck of the existing parking garage into a green recreational space for
 the residential tenants. The garage will have EV charging stations. Developer has agreed
 to designate 5% of the units in the south tower as affordable housing at 120% AMI

 encompassed the requests and directions of the Board of Trustees concerning
 discussions, public comments, stakeholder input and the Plan Commission's presentation
 to the Village Board. These ordinances came before the Village Board three times, each
 with requested further input and some specific revision. After the initial reading on May
 15, 2023, both the second reading on September 5, 2023 and the third reading on
 November 20, 2023 included revisions from Village Board members. However, none of
 these ordinances were adopted.

 goals; adjustments to the Affordable Housing tiered unit requirements; and specifizing that
 money from payments in lieu shall only be used for programs such as affordable housing
 owner occupied units, land trust programs and the Affordable Housing Renovation
 Program (limited to no more than $300,000 per year).

To: The Honorable Mayor and
 Board of Trustees
 Village Clerk
 Corporation Counsel




SUBJECT: Referendum Ranked-Choice Voting Information and
 Engagement of Klein, Thorpe & Jenkins, LTD.


At the April 1, 2024 Village Board Meeting, the Mayor and Village Board voted unanimously
to delay a vote on a term limit for Village elected offices referendum with the expectation that
a second rank choice referendum would also be considered. It was also discussed that the
item would be back at the next Board meeting.
Since that time, research has been initiated and a summary follows:
The Illinois General Assembly established the Ranked-Choice and Voting Systems Task
Force. The purpose of the Task Force is to review voting systems and the methods of voting,
including ranked-choice voting, that could be authorized by law. The enabling legislation is
attached.
The law firm KTJ and specifically Scott Uhler who assisted the Village in implementing the
last three referendum was consulted. It should be noted the Village’s new hybrid electoral
system, consisting of both district and at-large Trustees, adds complexity to Ranked-Choice
voting that must be contemplated with any referendum question. In response, a
Memorandum-Referenda Process and Requirements was provided to the Village and is
attached. There are a number of considerations as Ranked-Choice voting has not yet been
implemented in Illinois including Cook County. (Evanston has approved Ranked-Choice
Voting but it’s in abeyance as of now.)
The Village also spoke with representatives from FairVote Illinois, a non-profit actively
pursuing Ranked-Choice Voting in Illinois. They provided information about this issue and
offered to assist the Village.
In conclusion, I request authority to reengage KTJ as necessary to advise in navigating the
consideration of a referendum at a rate of $350 per hour. In addition, since the Task Force
is expected to issue a report, perhaps as soon as later this month or during May, that the
Village review the report as part of the due diligence in pursuing a Ranked-Choice Voting
Referendum.

 RE: Memorandum - Referenda
 Process/Requirements




You have inquired about certain substantive and procedural issues which may be
implicated by certain referendum propositions. One of the referenda proposes term limits
for the office of Mayor, Village Clerk and the Village Trustees. The other referenda
proposes that the voters of the Village be asked if the Village of Skokie [shall] elect its
Mayor, Clerk, and Village Board of Trustees by Ranked Choice Voting .

General Referenda Requirements

The following fundamental principles that apply to all referenda questions in Illinois.

 • A public question must provide for a coherent scheme . It must stand on its own
 terms" and be self-executing. See Leck v Michaelson, 111 111.2d 523 [1986); Lipinski
 v Chicago Bd. ofEiec. Comm'rs, 114 IH.2d 95 [1986)
 0 A public question requiring changes not clearly contemplated by the terms of
 the question or requiring gaps to be filled in by the municipality is improper.
 0 Any gaps in the implementation procedures required cannot be filled in after
 the public question is voted upon.
 0 A public question is improper if it would have to be further interpreted,
 supplemented or modified in order to be implemented.
 A public question cannot be vague or ambiguous regarding the information needed
 for implementation and enforcement nor unduly confusing to the voters. See Leck v
 Michaelson, 111 H1.2d 523 (1986)


 Page 1 of 5
 Return to Agenda




 o The timing of the proposition must generally be clear, i.e. when it becomes
 effective, whether retroactive, prospective, etc.
 • A referendum need only meet the "basic standard" set forth in Leck and Lipinski,
 which merely mandate [s] that the language used avoids the pitfalls of vagueness
 and ambiguity by permitting a clear determination of what voters
 approved. Johnson v.Ames, 2016 IL 121563
 • The wording of a public measure for the ballot is not to furnish the electors with
 every detail regarding the public measure to be voted upon, but to enable them to
 readily identify the proposition, to know its fundamentals, its general effect, and to
 indicate their individual choice in the matter. Smith v Calhoun Corn. School District,
 16UL2d321(1958]
 o The substance of a public measure is adequately set forth if the ballot gives a
 fair portrayal of She chief features of the proposition in words of plain
 meaning, so that it can be understood by persons entitled to vote. This does
 not require that the complete proposition be set forth on the official ballot,
 Smith v Calhoun Corn. School District, 16 H1.2d 321 (1958)
 • Under the uniformity clause of the 111. Constitution, the laws related to elections
 must be applied statewide. The power to regulate elections is vested in the General
 Assembly. The laws related to elections must be applied statewide and those laws
 must be general and uniform . Actions in this area by local governments must
 conform with the Election Code. See, Leck v. Michaelson, 129 Ill.App.3d 593 [1984);
 o In the "elections" context, the Illinois Supreme Court has stated that the
 uniformity clause refers to the mechanics of voter registration, residency
 requirements and other election and voting procedures. Totten v. The State
 Board of Elections. 79 I11.2d 288, 295 [1980]
 o The codification of all of the election practices and procedures between 1977
 and 1980 by the Illinois General Assembly, referred to as the election
 consolidation legislation, resulted in the current Election Code. The new
 Code was for the specific purpose of creating a comprehensive election
 system which coordinated the laws, scheduling, procedures and
 administration for all elections to be held in this State. Leck v. Michaelson, 129
 Ill.App.3d 593 [1984]

Term Limit Referendum

The fundamental questions that arise with a proposition regarding term limits are:

 • The legal authority to impose term limits.
 • The "timing" of the implementation of term limits, i.e. are the term limits retroactive
 or prospective.
 • The legal authority to impose "lifetime" limitations [versus consecutive terms) on
 the number of terms that can be served.
 • The application of term limits to each office (i.e. mayor, clerk or trustee] or to any
 office.


 Page 2 of 5
 Return to Agenda




Other than the lifetime limitations imposed by term limit referendum, the above issues
are now addressed by Section 3.1-10-17 of the Illinois Municipal Code.1 That statute
acknowledges term limit authority approved by referendum. Section 3.1-10-17 provides
that term limits can only be applied prospectively and provides that term limits only apply
to terms for the same office or that category of municipal office. As for lifetime term
limits for certain office, as opposed to limits on consecutive terms of office, such limitations
do exist under the U. S. Constitution and we are not aware of any restriction on the
authority of a municipality to adopt such lifetime term limits by referendum.

The Village has prepared the following draft public question for a term limit referendum for
placement on the ballot at an upcoming election in the Village of Skokie:

 Shall the Village of Skokie, after the November 5, 2024, General Election, adopt an
 ordinance amending the Skokie Village Code to enact term limits for the elected
 offices of Village Mayor, Village Trustee, and Village Clerk for no more than three (3)
 four-year terms total for each office?

This phrasing of the question is in general compliance with the principles set forth above.
The applicable provisions of Section 3.1-10-17 cited above can be referenced and relied
upon in the implementation of the provisions of the above question.


Ranked Choice Voting Referendum

As you know, there is only one municipality to have adopted ranked choice voting in Illinois,
the City of Evanston. This kind of system, and the authority to establish such a system, is
largely untested at this point. The City of Evanston remains in current communication with
the Cook County Election Department regarding the logistics and election tabulation
equipment and systems which will be necessary to implement their ranked choice voting
system. Those systems do not currently exist. The Village of Oak Park is considering a
referendum to approve ranked choice voting, but their Board of Trustees has voted to wait
for the report of the Statewide Task Vote currently examining ranked choice voting, which is
due at the end of this year. In 2022, the voters in the Town of Berwyn approved an advisory
referendum regarding ranked choice voting.

As noted above, under the uniformity clause of the Illinois Constitution, the laws related to
elections must be applied statewide. Local governments, including home rule units, must
comply with the Election Code. The Illinois Supreme Court has stated that the uniformity
clause "refers to the mechanics of voter registration, residency requirements and other
election and voting procedures. Totten v. The State Board of Elections, 79 I11.2d 288, 295




  See also, Buchanan v. Jones, 2021 ILApp (1st] 210169 [upholding the law that limited a referendum-
approved local term limit system because the General Assembly had exercised its concurrent power to set
terms of office for elected municipal officers ); Burns v. Municipal Officers Electoral Board of the Viilage of Elk
Grove ViUage, 2020 IL 125714.

 Page 3 of 5
 Return to Agenda




[1980) It is unclear to what extent a ranked voting system may fall within the mandated
voting procedures now established in the Election Code.


The legal authority to adopt ranked choice voting in Illinois remains an open question.
There is no Illinois judicial decision or statutory authority regarding the adoption of ranked
choice voting. The limited authority available is a 2005 opinion of the Illinois Attorney
General concluding that ranked choice voting is authorized, by referendum under the
Illinois Constitution, citing the reasoning of the Supreme Court decision in Leck v
Michaelson as the basis for such an opinion. See Ul.Op.Att'y Gen. No. 05-007 [2005]
Although Attorney General opinions are not binding legal precedent, "a well-reasoned
opinion of the Attorney General is entitled to considerable weight, especially in a matter of
first impression in Illinois". It would be a stretch to characterize this 2005 legal opinion as
"well-reasoned" While the opinion is not necessarily incorrect, given the significant body
of law that has developed in Illinois over time regarding public referenda under Section 6(f]
of the Article VII of the Illinois Constitution, it also is not a particularly extensive analysis of
available caselaw and judicial precedent in this area in Illinois.

Also, as noted above, a public question has to "stand on its own terms" and be self-
executing. The proper explanation of ranked choice voting in the form of a public question
is somewhat involved. The ranked choice system approved by Evanston voters was for
their elected offices of the mayor, clerk and the alderman based on a relatively
straightforward system requiring the winner to attain more than 50%. No officials are
elected at-Iarge in the City ofEvanston. Even then, the form of the referendum question in
She City of Evanston was fairly involved and ran a full paragraph.

The referendum question to approve ranked choice voting in Skokte would be more
involved than it was in Evanston and would need to address how the ranked choice
tabulation would apply to the two at-large trustee candidate offices.

Given the relative complexity of the public question in Skokle, FairVote Illinois wrote to you
that they "strongly recommend passing both an ordinance detailing the implementation
process along with a resolution placing the question on the ballot. FairVote recommends a
procedural ordinance to "give clarity to the new process while keeping the question simple
for the voters". Their concern [which is reasonable here) appears to arise from the fact
that phrasing the question to explain the voting methodology in Skokie will be difficult and
lengthy. Because the substance of a public measure Is to provide a fair portrayal of the chief
features of the proposition in words of plain meaning, so that it can be understood by
persons entitled to vote, to the extent that the vote tabulation process and formula can be
set forth in greater detail in a Village ordinance, and simply be referenced in the public
question, the more defensible the question may be.


While a municipality cannot "save" a referendum question that was not self-executing, by
providing the details necessary for the implementation of the referendum after the
referendum is approved, several judicial decisions suggest that you can borrow the
necessary details for the implementation of a referendum that otherwise would not be self-



 Page 4 of 5
 Return to Agenda




executing, by reference to existing law such as a statute or a municipal ordinance providing
those details.2


In that regard, the Illinois Supreme Court concluded that although a public question
submitted to the voters does not specifically refer to the statute or include the details
regarding the organization and establishment of a particular system being approved (in
that case, an RTA transportation plan), if voters can educate themselves by consulting a
statute which contained all pertinent details, the referendum can still be considered self-
executing. Hoogasian v. Regional Transportation Authority [1974), 58 111. 2d 117: see also.
Sjordal v. Mun. Officers Electorai Bd. ofNaperville, 2013 111. App. 2d 130189 (2013)

Similarly, at the municipal level, there is a decision confirming that She implementation
details related to a public question can be supplied by a local law where a city passed an
ordinance changing its "form of government" by authorizing new appointment authority by
its council, by the mayor and by the city administrator and passing a resolution to submit
the ordinance to public referendum. See, Flowers v. City ofMoline, 251 Ill.App.3d 348
(1993). The Court In that matter noted that the Illinois Constitution requires that the
forms of government approved by referendum, must otherwise be as provided 'by law,'.
The Court found that "[a] city ordinance is 'law' within the city," and concluded that based
on its own ordinance the city had indeed chosen a form of government "provided by law."

effective following the occurrence of a specific condition or contingency, such as the affirmative vote of the
residents in the voting district affected. See People v CTA, 392 111. 77 (1945); People v Kelly, 357 111. 408

Memorandum
Mayor's Office


TO: Boai?6 of Trusts

FROM: tf^-A^h-?"


 Mayrfr^George Van Dusen

DATE: ApriM 1,2024

RE: Existing Ethics Rules and Regulations Governing Village Officials Including
 Corporation Counsel's Office



There seems to be some confusion regarding the status of ethics for the office of
Corporation Counsel of the Village of SRokie. The purpose of this memo is to clear up
any misunderstanding and to clarify the provisions governing the office.

The Village of Skokie Corporation Counsel's Office is governed by the ruies and
regulations that have applied to corporation counsels through decades in the Village of
Skokie and in municipalities throughout Illinois. These same rules and regulations apply
to the Village Manager and the elected officials. These rules and regulations govern
every aspect of the work and representation of the Office and singutarly provide the
underpinnings of the conduct of the Office:

 A. State of Illinois Officials and Employee Ethics Act, 5 ILCS 430/5-15 et seq applies
 to all elected and appointed Village Officials pursuant to enabling act, State of
 Illinois Officials and Employee Act, 5 ILCS 430/70-5. Pursuant to this legislation:

 a. Gift Ban- Employees, spouses may not soiicit or accept gifts from prohibited
 sources.


 b. Prohibited Political Activity" No officer or employee shall intentionally
 perform prohibited political activity during compensated time, except:
 i. Activity which is "permissible for an officer or employee to engage in
 as part of his or her official duties"; and
 ii. No person shall be denied or deprived of employment because he or
 she is a member or an officer of a political committee, party,
 organization or club.

 B. Parallel ethics regulations concerning political activities and participation when not
 on official duties are applied to the offices of the United States Attorney General,
 State of Illinois Attorney General and the Cook County State's Attorney, as a First
 Amendment Right.



618720 (PAGE 1)
 Return to Agenda




 C. The exact same provisos of the State of Illinois which became effective on
 November 19, 2003 as stated above in item "A" were adopted in the Village of
 Skokie on June 7, 2004. These provisions protect the Village, just as in
 municipalities throughout the State of Illinois, concerning gifts and political activity
 while on official duty and stilt protect employee First Amendment rights.

 D. Every attorney in the Corporation Counsel's Office is also bound by a strict code
 of ethics in order to be licensed and all Illinois attorneys are held to this strict code
 of ethics as codified by the Illinois Supreme Court. Neither the Village Manager
 nor the elected officials (unless they are practicing attorneys) have such strict rules
 of conduct. The rules are extensive and govern attorney work competence,
 treatment of clients, conflicts of interest and other ethical considerations, charging
 and handling of fees, comingling of funds and civility in court. Attorneys in lilinois
 are required to fulfill continuing legal education courses which include 6 hours of
 ethics. Overall the rules of conduct emphasize an awareness and commitment to
 the welfare and fair dealing for your client. All of this further governs and assures
 the ethical conduct of the Village of Skokie Corporation Counsel's Office as it does
 for attorneys in every sensitive legal position, public and private.

 E. The Illinois State Bar Association ("ISBA") aiso provides oversight and direction to
 attorneys concerning matters of ethical legal conduct. The Corporation Counsel's
 Office is a member of the ISBA and regularly reviews its advisory opinions
 regarding professiona! conduct. By example:

 a. The notion of avoiding the "appearance of impropriety" is no longer the
 standard of lawyer professional conduct in Illinois. As a result,
 circumstances requiring review must be an actual conflict. (Op 12-12)

 b. A iaw firm may continue to represent a city in municipal matters even though
 a paralegal employed by the firm is a member of the city council and the
 council has authority over the work of the firm. (Op 16-05)


 F. Parallel ethics obligations for Village Manager:

 a. The Village of Skokie Code is more inclusive than the State of Illinois Ethics
 Act in regard to the inclusion of the Village Manager as an Officer. Pursuant
 to the Village of Skokie Code, both the Village Manager and the Corporation
 Counsel's office are regulated in Section 2-386, Applicability of State
 Officials and State Employees Ethics Act, which states "For the purposes
 of this Section 2-386 the term... (II) "Officer" shall mean each person
 holding the office of Mayor, Clerk, Deputy Clerk, Trustee, Corporation
 Counsel, Assistant Corporation Counsel, Village Manager and each
 person serving on a Board or Commission..." (emphasis added).


618720 (PAGE 2)
 Return to Agenda




 Therefore, the Village Manager and Corporation Counsel are governed
 equally under the ethics provisions of the Skokie Village Code, including
 limitations on poiitical activity while on compensated time ONLY, but not
 when on uncompensated time. Furthermore, it is noteworthy that theVillage
 Manager has an employment contract with the Village of Skokie while the
 lawyers in the Corporation Counsei's office do not have any such contract.

 b. Similar to the Corporation Counsel's governance under the lliinois Rules of
 Professional Conduct, the Skokie Village Manager is governed by the
 International City/County Management Association's ("ICMA") code of
 ethics. Managers who choose to Join ICMA are automatically subject to its
 code of ethics including the prerequisite of a complete ban on all political
 activity. However, those provisions are not mandated or imposed upon
 the Village Manager by the State of Illinois Ethics Act or Village Code.
 While the ICMA prohibition against any political activity is not imposed or
 required by State law, Village Code or other oversight authority, the Skokie
 Village Manager inserted the prohibition into his contract solely upon his
 own request to comply with the ICMA prerequisite. (Again, the
 attorneys in the Corporation Counsel's office do not have any employment
 contracts.)

 Civil Engineering Division
 The petitioner must verify if the repair shop floor drains or trench drains tie into any

 drain is installed or any existing system is altered.


 Planning_ Division
 The Planning Division recommends approval of the special use permit request for an

 sufficient on-site parking. A total of 7 parking spaces are required for the proposed
 use and 7 are being provided. Due to the lack of on-stree£ parking and the
 establishment of tandem parking spaces within this industrlal-zoned neighborhood/
 the three parking spaces located within the Christiana Avenue right-of-way count
 toward meeting the parking requirement.
 The site and floor plans must be revised to depict the striping of the 3/ wide area
 between the southernmost row of the tandem parking spaces and the south
 property line as a no parking zone. This area will provide unobstrucfced pedestrian
 access to the front entrance of the building from the public sidewalk.
 Planning staff also requests that the accessible parking and loading areas be shifted
 further to the north so that the north edge of the loading area is adjacent to the

 access to the rear man door. Additionally, access to the rear man door must be
 modified to become ADA-compliant.

 16 years he now wants to open his own shop. There will be 2 service bays with 2
 lifts where he and another employee will provide mechanical services only; no
 body work or painting. The shop, Rafa’s Auto Repair, will be open Monday
 through Saturday from 7am to 6pm.

 Staff requested the report to be accepted into the record as written striking
 recommended special use Condition #1 a. through d. as revised drawings were
 submitted after this report was written which addressed staff’s comments.

 This industrial-zoned area does allow tandem parking; therefore, the parking
 requirement of 7 spaces is met which includes the 3 parking spaces in the
 Christiana Avenue right-of-way with a handicap accessible space located in the
 rear. The back door needs to be modified to be ADA compliant.

 There are 4 other auto repair shops on this block and there is no history of
 complaints. Everything is contained on the property as it should be.

 The petitioner was agreeable with the staff report recommendations and had
 nothing further to add.

 Case 2024-04P – Special Use Permit: 8014 Lincoln Avenue
 MDG 8000 North Lincoln Owner LLC, on behalf of Thomas H. Griseta, requests
 a special use permit for a co-working office in a CX Core Mixed-Use district and
 any relief discovered during the review of this case.

 413-030-0000, 10-21-413-036-0000, and 10-21-413-037-0000.

 Tom Griseta, on behalf of MDG 8000 North Owner, LLC, presented the case. He
 is proposing a special use permit to open a Skokie location for an Enclave co-
 working office. All sites are situated in suburban downtowns allowing members
 who want to work close to home in office settings instead of commuting to a
 downtown high-rise. Most members walk or bike to the Enclave offices in the
 towns they live in. There will be no cooking or food prep, nothing with hazardous
 materials, and no changes to the sidewalks or streets. They provide access 24/7
 to accommodate those who deal with businesses overseas. There are now
 locations open in Wilmette and Evanston.

 Mr. Griseta spoke of the 3 monthly or yearly membership plans:
 Co-working Flex – access to the lounge, phone room, conference room and
 coffee bar;

 Commissioner Berman asked about bringing in guests and used real estate
 closings as an example. Mr. Griseta stated that 2 guests are allowed at a time for
 each member but when there will be more, a request should be made first and
 put on a calendar.

 Commissioner Minchella inquired about staffing and trash. Mr. Griseta said that it
 will not be a dedicated staff at each location but as part of the lease, staff does
 circle around to each location to take care of stocking supplies and trash
 collection. Usually only a few bags of trash are generated each week.

 Mike Voitik, Associate Planner, requested the report be accepted into the record
 as written. The business will offer 11 offices and a conference room. Shared
 bathrooms will be located in a common hallway. He reminded the commission of
 the text amendment case (2023-30P) allowing co-working as a special use on
 retail streets in mixed-use districts which was approved by the Village Board
 earlier this year. The use will bring activity to downtown just as retail does.

 Mr. Voitik wished to amend recommended special use condition #1. (a through c)
 to read that prior to building permit approval, the Fire Dept. should review the
 revised partition plan.

 When asked, Mr. Griseta had no issues with the staff report and added that there
 will be 2 floors of parking in the building for their use.

 as Soul Good Coffee is a client of hers. A quorum still was intact.

 Kristina Perez Thomas, business owner, and Kathryn McRay, architect from
 MADlab presented their cases. Currently, Soul Good Coffee operates out of a
 mobile coffee trailer. They are proposing to open a limited service coffee shop at
 the corner of Main Street and Keystone Avenue. They will occupy a vacant space
 on the west side of a commercial building to include outdoor dining directly
 adjacent to the shop. They will have seating for 50 inside and 20 seats available
 for outdoor dining. They will have a staff of 9-15 with 3-4 at any one time. Hours
 of operation will be from 7am to 4pm Monday through Sunday serving mostly
 expresso drinks, hot chocolate and lemonade. As they do not have a full kitchen,
 they partner with bakeries and restaurants to offer a rotating variety of snacks
 and pastries. Most of their customers will be walk-up or grab and go but they do
 expect a higher volume once the warmer weather is here. There will be lighting
 for the outdoor area but no music.

 Commissioner Berman asked why only 20 seats on the patio. Ms. Thomas stated
 that she wanted to have enough room to accommodate strollers or bikes and
 have room for kids to color on the sidewalk. Mr. Berman commented that parking
 is plentiful with 90-minute parking on Main St and Keystone Avenue adjacent to
 the site.

 Chairman Luke asked about how they would define the outdoor dining area. Ms.
 McRay stated that they will set up planters along Keystone as a barrier between
 the patio and the 3 shared parking spaces at the rear.

 Jose Acosta, Planning Coordinator, requested the staff reports be entered into
 the record as written. He recognized Soul Good Coffee as the winner of the 2023
 Business of the Year and commented on their commitment to give-back and
 support non-profit organizations and the partnerships with other businesses in
 the community.

 He explained the need for parking relief. The building was constructed in 1955
 with 12 parking spaces shared between tenants. At the time, 12 spaces were
 adequate for 3 tenants. By today’s standards, the Village Code has increased
 requirements to 22 spaces. The Zoning Code does allow relief to be granted for
 new businesses that are going into older buildings that do not have the proper
 layout to accommodate the increase. Therefore, a request for a parking deficit of
 15 spaces is needed; the difference between the previous use (7 spaces) and
 the new use at this location (22 spaces).

 Commissioner Burman inquired about trash receptacles for the outdoor dining
 area and the 4-hour rule. Mr. Acosta directed him to Standard Special Use
 Condition #3.

PLAN COMMISSION REPORT 2024-04P: Special Use Permit
Plan Commission Council Chambers, 7:30 PM April 15, 2024


To: Mayor and Board of Trustees
From: Paul Luke, Plan Commission Chairman
Case: 2024-04P: Special Use Permit
 8014 Lincoln Avenue

PLAN COMMISSION ANALYSIS
At its April 4, 2024, meeting, the Plan Commission heard the request of MDG 8000
North Owner, LLC, on behalf of Thomas H. Griseta, for a special use permit for a co-
working office at 8014 Lincoln Avenue in a CX Core Mixed-Use district. The petitioner
intends to open a Skokie location of the Enclave co-working business. The business will
occupy a 3,309 square feet space that will contain 11 offices and a conference room.
Shared bathroom facilities will be located off a common hallway that is located to the
southwest of the office space. Memberships would be offered on a monthly or annual
basis. Enclave members will have daily access to the office space from 6:00 a.m. to
2:00 a.m., though the petitioner has indicated that the only late-night occupants would
consist of the cleaning and stocking crew.
The Plan Commission concurred with Staff’s recommendation to grant the special use
permit subject to conditions.
In response to a question from a commissioner who asked if customers or visitors
would be allowed at the co-working offices, the petitioner responded that each member
would be permitted to have up to 2 visitors at a time. The members would need to
request permission from Enclave in the event that a larger number of visitors were to
come to the office, however.
Another commissioner asked how the disposal of trash would be handled by the
petitioner. The petitioner replied that the office only generates a small amount of trash
on a weekly basis and that trash collection is handled through the office’s lease with the
property owner.
A more detailed discussion of this case is in the attached Staff Report and minutes.

INTERESTED PARTIES
Legal notice was properly posted, advertised, and delivered to all property owners in
the area of the subject site as prescribed by the Zoning Chapter. No interested parties
spoke regarding the case.

APPEARANCE COMMISSION
Appearance Commission review is not required.

PETITIONER'S SUBMITTAL
The petitioner is requesting a special use permit for a co-working office at 8014 Lincoln
Avenue in a CX Core Mixed-Use district. The petitioner intends to open a Skokie
location of the Enclave co-working business. The business will occupy a 3/309 square
feet space that will contain 11 offices and a conference room. Shared bathroom
facilities will be located off a common hallway that is located to the southwest of the
office space. Enclave members will have daily access to the office space from 6:00
a.m. to 2:00 a.m./ though the petitioner has indicated that the only late-night
occupants would consist of the cleaning and stocking crew.
With regards to the request, the petitioner explains that:
 Enclave is an established Chicagoland coworking business, already operating in G{en Ellyn/
 Downers Grove, Arlington Heights, Oak Park/ Highland Park, Wilmette, Lake Forest, and
 Naperville. Enclave is weeks away from opening in EvansSon/ Barrington, and Elmhurst. AH of
 Enclave's locations are located in a suburban "downtown/" providing an opportunity for residents



VOSDOCS-#617946-vl-Staff^eport_-_2024-04P_^Special^Use^erm!t_8014^Lincoln_Avenue
 2 of 7
 Return to Agenda




 to spend their days out and about in their hometown instead of going to a Chicago office or
 staying in their own homes.

 Virtually all of our members reside in the suburb where each Enclave exists. Our survey efforts
 have taught us that these members would not otherwise spend the bulk of their weekdays in
 their respective downtown areas but for their membership at Enclave. We have cultivated
 relationships with surrounding restaurants and retail organizations/ have joined various chambers
 of commerce/ have hosted community events in our space, and have otherwise helped to build
 activity on main street everywhere we have gone.

 Because Enclave's goal is to be within 5-10 minutes of all of Its members' homes, most members
 walk or bike to Enclave. On a normal day/ 1-5 members may park a car downtown. And
 because Enclave's membership encourages filtering in and out of the spaces over the course of
 the day/ those cars rarely stay in town for more than a few hours.
 Enclave does not cook, serve food, manufacture any products/ or deal with hazardous materials.
 Because Enclave is an ofRce setting/ the operation of its business has no impact on public health
 [or] storm water detention, and it has no detrimental effect on the morals/ health/ or safety of
 Skokie residents.

 Finally/ Enclave understands that paragraph 118-183(a)(3) of Article IX of Skokie's zoning
 ordinance relating to mixed use zoning districts requires that a business located on a retail street
 remain open for 40 hours per week. Enclave is open for more than 40 hours per week. Its
 members are allowed to access the space after or before normal business hours to account for
 things like time changes on their calls or zoom meetings, or after hours in-person meetings or
 social or networking events. In fact, many members wili cycle in and out of the space on
 Saturdays and Sundays as well.

 We find that most members enjoy workspaces and other seating options near windows for
 natural light. As a result/ even on days when membership is not heavy, our store front reflects a
 busy and actively operating business for those folks walking by.

The petitioner describes the membership process as follows:
 A member buys a [monthly or annual] membership and each membership ranges in access.
 There are flex members who simply set up throughout the space the way someone would in a
 cafe/ [as well as] office flex members who share an office with other office flex members/ and
 dedicated office members who can actually set up an office with their own art/ furniture/ etc./
 and use it exclusively.


STAFF ANALYSIS
Comments

Staff comment and review sheets were sent to all pertinent departments. Staff
comments on the subject case were received from the Fire Prevention Bureau and the
Planning Division. Ail other departments returned the sheets with no comments.

 Fire Prevention Bureau

 The Fire Prevention Bureau would like to make the petitioner aware that the
 following will be required of this proposal:
 1) Revise the partition plan to show fire rated separation between occupancies.



VOSDOCS-#617946-vl-Staff^Report_-_2024-04P__-_SpeciaLUse^Permit^80i4^Lincoln^venue

 Return to Agenda




 2) Revise the partition plan to show common path and egress travel distance for the
 8014 Lincoln Avenue space.

 3) Emergency light installation in bathrooms and other work rooms.
 4) Fire alarm and fire sprinkler plans will be required to be submitted with
 alterations made to the 8014 Lincoln Avenue space.


 Planning Division
 The Planning Division recommends approval of the special use permit request for a
 co-working office at 8014 Lincoln Avenue. The proposed use wilt add street-level
 activity to downtown Skokie and will generate potential users of nearby businesses.
 The village requested to amend the Zoning Ordinance in 2023 to add co-working
 office as a specia! use on Retail Streets in the mixed-use zoning districts (case 2023-
 BOP). The request was part of a larger intent by the village to create a more
 walkable environment that would attract shoppers and businesses. Prior to this
 amendment/ co-working businesses fell under the "office not otherwise listed" land
 use classification and were not permitted to be located on the ground level of
 buildings facing retail streets.
 Due to its location on a designated retail street/ the proposed use shall be open to
 the public for a minimum of 40 hours a week. Additionally/ the surface of the
 windows and doors shall not be covered or obstructed by products/ window
 coverings (blinds/ drapes/ shades/ or the like)/ signs in excess of the requirements
 in the Signs chapter/ or other opaque materials placed behind the window


APPEARANCE COMMISSION
Appearance Commission review is not required.

STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS
Staff recommends that the petitioner's request for a co-working office at 8014 Lincoln
Avenue in a CX Core Mixed-Use district be APPROVED/ subject to the attached positive
findings of fact.

 Case 2024-03P – Special Use Permit: 8229 Christina Avenue
 Jose Rafael Munoz Olivares requests a special use permit for an automotive
 repair facility in a M3 Industrial zoning district and any relief discovered during
 the review of this case.
 PIN: 10-23-408-011-0000

 Jose Rafael Munoz Olivares, business and property owner, presented the case.
 He is a mechanic by trade renting space in garages to practice his craft. After 15-

# 618594 Plan Commission meeting minutes April 4, 2024
 Return to Agenda




 16 years he now wants to open his own shop. There will be 2 service bays with 2
 lifts where he and another employee will provide mechanical services only; no
 body work or painting. The shop, Rafa’s Auto Repair, will be open Monday
 through Saturday from 7am to 6pm.

 Staff requested the report to be accepted into the record as written striking
 recommended special use Condition #1 a. through d. as revised drawings were
 submitted after this report was written which addressed staff’s comments.

 This industrial-zoned area does allow tandem parking; therefore, the parking
 requirement of 7 spaces is met which includes the 3 parking spaces in the
 Christiana Avenue right-of-way with a handicap accessible space located in the
 rear. The back door needs to be modified to be ADA compliant.

 There are 4 other auto repair shops on this block and there is no history of
 complaints. Everything is contained on the property as it should be.

 The petitioner was agreeable with the staff report recommendations and had
 nothing further to add.

 Case 2024-04P – Special Use Permit: 8014 Lincoln Avenue
 MDG 8000 North Lincoln Owner LLC, on behalf of Thomas H. Griseta, requests
 a special use permit for a co-working office in a CX Core Mixed-Use district and
 any relief discovered during the review of this case.
 PINs: 10-21-413-014-0000, 10-21-413-025-0000, 10-21-413-026-0000, 10-21-
 413-030-0000, 10-21-413-036-0000, and 10-21-413-037-0000.

 Tom Griseta, on behalf of MDG 8000 North Owner, LLC, presented the case. He
 is proposing a special use permit to open a Skokie location for an Enclave co-
 working office. All sites are situated in suburban downtowns allowing members
 who want to work close to home in office settings instead of commuting to a
 downtown high-rise. Most members walk or bike to the Enclave offices in the
 towns they live in. There will be no cooking or food prep, nothing with hazardous
 materials, and no changes to the sidewalks or streets. They provide access 24/7
 to accommodate those who deal with businesses overseas. There are now
 locations open in Wilmette and Evanston.

 Mr. Griseta spoke of the 3 monthly or yearly membership plans:
 Co-working Flex – access to the lounge, phone room, conference room and
 coffee bar;
 Office Flex + reserved desk – same amenities as Co-working Flex but with the
 use of a shared desk; and
 Private Office – a dedicated office with a key where a member can bring in their
 own belongings.

 Return to Agenda




 Commissioner Berman asked about bringing in guests and used real estate
 closings as an example. Mr. Griseta stated that 2 guests are allowed at a time for
 each member but when there will be more, a request should be made first and
 put on a calendar.

 Commissioner Minchella inquired about staffing and trash. Mr. Griseta said that it
 will not be a dedicated staff at each location but as part of the lease, staff does
 circle around to each location to take care of stocking supplies and trash
 collection. Usually only a few bags of trash are generated each week.

 Mike Voitik, Associate Planner, requested the report be accepted into the record
 as written. The business will offer 11 offices and a conference room. Shared
 bathrooms will be located in a common hallway. He reminded the commission of
 the text amendment case (2023-30P) allowing co-working as a special use on
 retail streets in mixed-use districts which was approved by the Village Board
 earlier this year. The use will bring activity to downtown just as retail does.

 Mr. Voitik wished to amend recommended special use condition #1. (a through c)
 to read that prior to building permit approval, the Fire Dept. should review the
 revised partition plan.

 When asked, Mr. Griseta had no issues with the staff report and added that there
 will be 2 floors of parking in the building for their use.

 Case 2024-01P – Special Use Permit: 4022 Main Street
 MSP II LLC – Series B, on behalf of Kristina Perez Thomas, requests a special
 use permit in a B1 Service Commercial zoning district for a limited service
 restaurant for Soul Good Coffee at 4022 Main Street, resulting in a parking deficit
 of 15 parking spaces, the amount by which the requirements for the new use
 exceed the previous use, as required by Sections 118-201(3) and 118-218(4) of
 the Skokie Village Code, and any other relief discovered during the review of this
 case.

 Case 2024-02P – Special Use Permit: 4022 Main Street
 MSP II LLC – Series B, on behalf of Kristina Perez Thomas, requests a special
 use permit in a B1 zoning district for outdoor dining at Soul Good Coffee at 4022
 Main Street, and any relief discovered during the review of this case.
 PIN: 10-22-408-011-0000

 As these 2 cases are related, they were discussed together but voted on
 separately.

 Commissioner Crohn-Minchella recused herself and left Council Chambers

 as Soul Good Coffee is a client of hers. A quorum still was intact.

 Kristina Perez Thomas, business owner, and Kathryn McRay, architect from
 MADlab presented their cases. Currently, Soul Good Coffee operates out of a
 mobile coffee trailer. They are proposing to open a limited service coffee shop at
 the corner of Main Street and Keystone Avenue. They will occupy a vacant space
 on the west side of a commercial building to include outdoor dining directly
 adjacent to the shop. They will have seating for 50 inside and 20 seats available
 for outdoor dining. They will have a staff of 9-15 with 3-4 at any one time. Hours
 of operation will be from 7am to 4pm Monday through Sunday serving mostly
 expresso drinks, hot chocolate and lemonade. As they do not have a full kitchen,
 they partner with bakeries and restaurants to offer a rotating variety of snacks
 and pastries. Most of their customers will be walk-up or grab and go but they do
 expect a higher volume once the warmer weather is here. There will be lighting
 for the outdoor area but no music.

 Commissioner Berman asked why only 20 seats on the patio. Ms. Thomas stated
 that she wanted to have enough room to accommodate strollers or bikes and
 have room for kids to color on the sidewalk. Mr. Berman commented that parking
 is plentiful with 90-minute parking on Main St and Keystone Avenue adjacent to
 the site.

 Chairman Luke asked about how they would define the outdoor dining area. Ms.
 McRay stated that they will set up planters along Keystone as a barrier between
 the patio and the 3 shared parking spaces at the rear.

 Jose Acosta, Planning Coordinator, requested the staff reports be entered into
 the record as written. He recognized Soul Good Coffee as the winner of the 2023
 Business of the Year and commented on their commitment to give-back and
 support non-profit organizations and the partnerships with other businesses in
 the community.

 He explained the need for parking relief. The building was constructed in 1955
 with 12 parking spaces shared between tenants. At the time, 12 spaces were
 adequate for 3 tenants. By today’s standards, the Village Code has increased
 requirements to 22 spaces. The Zoning Code does allow relief to be granted for
 new businesses that are going into older buildings that do not have the proper
 layout to accommodate the increase. Therefore, a request for a parking deficit of
 15 spaces is needed; the difference between the previous use (7 spaces) and
 the new use at this location (22 spaces).

 Commissioner Burman inquired about trash receptacles for the outdoor dining
 area and the 4-hour rule. Mr. Acosta directed him to Standard Special Use
 Condition #3.

New Business
A. Ethics and Appointed Officers
Trustee Johnson requested that the Village Board hold all of its full-time appointment officers to the same
ethical standards in regards to political activities. Trustee Johnson contended that all of the Board’s full-
time appointed officers should be expected to refrain from participating in the election campaigns of their
supervisors on the Village Board.
Mayor Van Dusen responded that there seems to be some confusion regarding the status of ethics for the
office of Corporation Counsel of the Village of Skokie. The Village of Skokie Corporation Counsel’s
office is governed by the rules and regulations from the State of Illinois Officials and Employee Ethics
Act, 5ILCS 430/5-15et seq applies to all elected and appointed Village Officials. The Board already holds
its appointed officers to the same ethical standards.
Trustees Pure Slovin, Robinson and Khoeun asked questions about Trustee Johnson’s request.
Matt Jarvis also spoke about the contract for the Village Manager and the State of Illinois ethical
standards. Mathew Gliebe also commented on the request.
