 Municipal Code regulating the operation, classification, and safety of E-Bikes and
 E-Scooters
 SPEAKERS
 P. Justin White (Naperville - NEST) discussed the differences between the City
 ordinance under consideration and the law passed by the Illinois legislature.

 Randall Case (Naperville) is in favor of the E-bike and E-scooter ordinance.

 Council discussed enforcement of the ordinance, differences between the
 City’s ordinance and Illinois State law, and the importance of educating parents,
 children, and businesses that purchase or sell E-bikes and E-scooters. They
 also discussed the use of bicycles on sidewalks and emphasized that all
 residents share responsibility for helping to uphold the ordinance.

 Arres stated under the Illinois State law the owner needs to be 18 years old to
 ride an E-scooter only on roadways where the speed limit is 35 mph or less, an
 E-scooter is defined as a scooter that has an electric motor, the City will
 continue educating parents, children and businesses who purchase and sell
 these type of motorized vehicles by working with both school districts and area
 businesses, everyone needs to be involved, children cannot ride an E-bike
 anywhere except a designated bike path or the street, not on the sidewalk, the
 enforcement will be complaint based or observed by a Police Officer similar to
 any vehicle issues, the Police can also be deployed to neighborhoods where
 there may be repeated issues or concerns and non motorized bikes can be
 used on the sidewalks but they must yield to pedestrians.
 Council conducted the first reading.

 WRITTEN COMMENTS
 Susan Ekkebus (Naperville) I am AGAINST the locating of the Dutch Bros
 Coffee location in the Jewel parking lot at 75th street and Naper Blvd. I am a
 frequent shopper at the Jewel location and find that traffic is already impossible
 without trying to locate a popular coffee shop in that small area of the parking
 lot. In the spring/summer when Jewel has their flower area there, it would add to
 even more traffic congestion and take away even more parking for the store.

 Katie Stevenson (Naperville) Traffic around the corner of Naper Blvd and 75th is
 terrible already. It is so difficult to get out of either the Mariano’s or Jewel parking
 lots already. There are so many near accidents at that corner. The addition of a
 coffee shop will inevitably make this worse. If there is any chance that the
 addition of this coffee shop would bring more funds to the city that could be
 used to develop a better traffic plan for that Corner, then I would be on board,
 otherwise I am against this addition

 Jeff Moore (Naperville) I've lived on E Bailey Road near Naper Blvd. for 20 years.
 Have you ever been to the corner of 75th and Naper during rush hour? You
 cannot put a Dutch bros in Jewel parking lot. In the morning the traffic is backed
 up southbound all the way to Sara Ln, in the evening you can't even get out of
 the Jewel parking lot, or Mariano’s. And every month there's a major accident at
 75th and Naper. The traffic is horrible, horrible. Please, go see for yourself. on
 75th during rush hour, the traffic is backed up on one side all the way back to
 Wehrli. On the other, almost to Washington. I have wanted for years for
 Naperville to figure out a fix to this area, and now you want to add a new traffic
 driver. No, no.

 Dana Ward (Naperville) The stretch of Naper Blvd. between Hobson and 75th
 street is already a nightmare during peak hours. Adding a drive through coffee
 shop will only add to the already overflowing traffic and seems unnecessary
 when that block already has 2 Starbucks (including the one in Mariano’s),
 Dunkin (already a congestion causer) and McDonald’s. Do we need a 5th spot
 selling coffee on that tiny bit of road?


City of Naperville Page 9 Printed on 11/19/2025
City Council Meeting Minutes - Final November 4, 2025

 Chen Liu (Woodridge) I am strongly against this proposal as the traffic over
 there is already very bad. It especially takes long time to get out of the Jewel
 parking lot to Naper Blvd.

 Ellen Schmidt (Naperville) I’m against allowing Dutch Bros Coffee Shop from
 being allowed to open at 75th/Naper. The traffic in that plaza is already heavy
 and the impact on traffic at the light at 75/Naper would be unbearable for those
 of us who live in the area. Please let them open in an area that is less
 congested.

 Lynnae Godsell (Naperville) The shopping area at the corner of 75th Street and
 Naperville Boulevard is already one of the most congested intersections in the
 area, particularly during morning and afternoon rush hours. I urge the city to
 carefully consider the existing traffic patterns, congestion levels, and history of
 traffic incidents in this area before approving additional development. A
 business such as Dutch Bros Coffee, which attracts frequent in-and-out traffic,
 could significantly worsen congestion and increase safety risks for drivers and
 pedestrians. Please take these concerns into account to ensure any new
 development maintains safe and manageable traffic flow in this already busy
 corridor.

 Debra (Naperville) Concerning the proposed building of Dutch Bros at Naper
 and 75th street. This is a bad idea. That intersection is busy and congested all
 the time. I know this because I work at one of the businesses in the Jewel side.
 There is no amount of traffic management that will make this situation work. I
 will stop visiting all the businesses at that intersection if this business is built
 because it won’t be worth the hassle.

 Kevin W Austin (Naperville) New coffee shop would be better located
 elsewhere. Traffic is already a nightmare at times at 75th & Naper. This
 intersection is also the most dangerous in Naperville for automobile accidents

 Mary Jage ( Naperville) I live 4 blocks from this location. On a regular basis in
 the morning and evening rush hours traffic is backed up blocking the
 intersections as well as traffic flowing into and out of Jewel and Mariano's
 parking lots. It is already a very busy area and we have Starbucks, Dunkin
 donuts, McDonald’s, Burger king, Starbucks inside Mariano’s, not to mention
 coffee in the restaurants in both malls. We don't need additional traffic that will
 be racing through the parking lot at Jewel endangering lives of people leisurely
 doing grocery shopping. This is no place to have a drive-thru beverage or food
 location. In the spring Jewel has their annual tent with garden supplies which
 displaces many parking spots making it very difficult to park already from April
 through June. This would just exacerbate it. I'm not against Dutch Brothers. I'm
 just against this location for Dutch Brothers. Please consider the local
 residents. We do not want it!!

 Zoran Kosic (Winnetka) I was first introduced to Dutch Bros while living in
 Arizona, where it quickly became a favorite among locals and snowbirds alike.
 Its welcoming atmosphere, exceptional customer service, and high-quality
 coffee made it a daily stop for many. When I returned to the Chicago area, I was
 surprised to find that Dutch Bros hadn’t yet expanded here-despite strong

 interest from many who, like me, had experienced it elsewhere. Dutch Bros is
 more than just a coffee shop. It’s a community-driven brand known for its
 energetic and friendly staff who genuinely brighten customers’ days. Bringing
 Dutch Bros to Naperville would not only meet the demand voiced by many
 former snowbirds and residents familiar with the brand but also contribute
 positively to the local economy through job creation and increased consumer
 activity. I understand there are concerns about traffic, especially with another
 competitor like 7Brew in the area. However, I believe Dutch Bros can coexist
 successfully by implementing thoughtful traffic management strategies and
 working collaboratively with city planners. Their proven track record in other
 busy markets shows they are capable of integrating smoothly into communities
 while maintaining a positive impact. I strongly support Dutch Bros’ presence in
 Naperville and encourage consideration of the broader benefits they bring to
 both residents and the local business landscape.
