 WRITTEN COMMENT ONLY
 Steven Shamrock (Naperville) Closing of Edward Health Fitness Center - On
 March 1, 2023, Edward-Elmhurst Hospitals announced the closure of the
 fitness center on Brom Drive in Naperville. The corporation has made no

City of Naperville Page 4 Printed on 3/21/2023
City Council Meeting Minutes March 7, 2023

 announcement that I am aware of the reason. There was no community input.
 My wife and I have been members for over 15 years. Many older adults maintain
 their health at this facility. It is right next to a senior living facility. For a company
 that espouses that it is "making investments in public health", for it to close this
 center that is part of the fabric of people's lives and relationships that serves to
 prevent illness that is costly, leaves me incredulous. The way I see it, this move
 signals that they want people to become ill or injured so they can boost profits.
 This is the opposite of what a health institution is supposed to do.
 Edward-Elmhurst counters criticism by noting that the Seven Bridges facility will
 remain open. However, for those who use the pools, which is a significant
 number, the opportunity to use it will be limited. This is especially an issue for
 members who use the facility before or after work. Five or ten minutes longer to
 get to or from the facility before or after work can be the difference between
 exercising and not. Many elderly members use aquatics for cardio and therapy
 because it is their only choice. And their ability to get to and from the seven
 bridges facility will be complicated. Will Edward-Elmhurst at least consider
 providing transportation for these seniors? With so many people under stress of
 inflation, taking away a place to maintain their health and nurture relationships is
 antithetical to what a healthcare provider should do.

 Christine (Naperville) Waves Swim Club - Closing Edward Fitness Facility - The
 closing of Edward fitness facility is not a closing of a redundant facility. While
 members can travel to seven bridges to use fitness equipment, and classes,
 members of the very successful Waves Swim Club will be greatly affected. The
 7 Bridges pool does not have the access, or size to accommodate a swim club
 with such size and sophistication . There is an entire community of Naperville
 residents who are being ignored with this decision. Swimming is often a sport
 that people turn to when they are unable to participate in other sports. If Edward
 believes in fitness as a key component to health, it should think of the swim
 community that has blossomed as a result of rehabilitation needs. This is a
 catastrophic loss for people with hip, back, knee and other issues who seek a
 regular fitness regimen.

 Nancy E Ryan (Naperville) - Opposition to closing EE Fitness Center - As a
 resident of Naperville for over 40 years with three generations of my family
 benefitting from this facility, I can tell you that it is a one-of-a-kind resource that
 is essential to the health and well-being of the surrounding community. There
 was no communication with members about this, just a hastily-placed sign
 posted on the facility front door and desk saying that the doors of the facility
 would be permanently shuttered by month's end. When I asked "what recourse
 do members have?" I was told "well, you could quit your membership or go to 7
 Bridges". Neither is tenable. Asking all current members to either quit or
 commute to an adjacent town to an already-packed sister facility is cold,
 ill-conceived, and not possible for many. Beyond being poor optics and PR for
 the "healthy driven" EE Health organization, this move is harmful to the health
 and well being of the local community. If the powers that be could see the
 feeling of community at this branch and the way that senior citizens during pool
 classes in particular laugh and socialize and connect, they would surely realize
 the importance of this facility to the well-being of the surrounding community.
 The way this decision was executed was very cold-hearted and shameful.

City Council Meeting Minutes March 7, 2023

 Beth Russell (Plainfield) - Council meeting closure of Edward Fitness - I lost
 over 100 pounds working out at this facility. This is a community of people.
 Please don’t destroy a community.

 Mark Kozlowski (Wheaton/Illinois) Good Day Councilmen Regarding the closure
 of the Edward Health and Fitness Center: For the Public - this closure results in
 a vacuum of public health. It leaves vacated hearts and unhealthy souls. For the
 Hospital - closing this facility may result in a savings in operating cost, but at the
 cost of community health, which from where I sit - should have prevailed
 (overwhelmingly) in the conversations leading to the decision to cut a healthy
 lifeline to wellness, mindfulness, mental, and physical health. If health and
 wellness are so incredibly important to keep the cost of healthcare affordable
 and valuable - why are they taking away the tools for success? This is similar to
 taking nails away from a carpenter. This is a healthcare travesty. The fact that I
 have to write this message, and that so many others are doing the same,
 should be an embarrassment for the healthcare system. This closure is a
 complete disregard for public health and is the antithesis of the lifestyle
 promoted by the healthcare industry. Naperville should be a model system for
 moving forward, not a failure model. Imagine the headlines associated with:
 "Northshore University Health System Closes a Pillar of Community Wellness in
 Naperville" or "Amid Fitness Center Closure - Costs for Healthcare and
 Personal Wellness are on the Rise." Personally - At 47, I have successfully
 maintained a healthy lifestyle with bipolar illness for almost 25 years. My
 wellness is largely a result of my travel from Wheaton to EHFC in the mornings
 to exercise with my colleagues, peers, and friends. The closure of the Edward
 Health and Fitness Center directly impacts me (and hundreds of others) by
 literally creating a void in my social, emotional, and mental health. Since 2012,
 the EHFC has provided many of the tools I have used for planning,
 decompressing, coping, healing, closure, resolution and a solid workout. Please
 don't take away this happy place. Mark S. Kozlowski

 Anne Casperson (Naperville) - Closing of Edward Fitness Center, Naperville -
 Please stop the closing of the Naperville Edward Fitness center. It is a lifeline
 especially for seniors, a community that promotes good health and fitness. It is
 close to home and has been a staple of this area for years. The staff is kind and
 knowledgeable, and it encourages us to move at a time we are likely to give up.
 It is my lifeline, and I cannot imagine not having it any longer. After covid, where
 we all didn't move, it is imperative to have a place that gets us back on our feet
 and gives us hope! If you walk through midday, you will see the hope all around
 you! Please do not let it close!

 John Chamberlain (Naperville) - The closure of the Edward Hospital Fitness
 Center will be a tremendous loss the City of Naperville community. Fitness
 activities are an essential part of preventative medicine, designed to keep
 people out of the hospital. Fitness creates energy and confidence and reduces
 stress and strengthens health. The Fitness Center provides residents with a
 convenient, safe and fun place to engage in fitness activities. And not only does
 the Fitness Center serves as a place for residents of the City of Naperville to
 engage in healthy exercise and rehabilitative activities, but it provides a great
 spirit of community within Naperville where members of the community
 socialize and come together. I have met many of my very own neighbors

City of Naperville Page 6 Printed on 3/21/2023
City Council Meeting Minutes March 7, 2023

 through our memberships at this facility. In a day and age where our primary
 social activity with our neighbors is to wave at them before we pull into our
 garage and close the door, this facility provides much needed socialization.
 Many of the members at the Fitness Center are elderly residents of the
 community who rely on the Fitness Center, and many members have been
 coming to the Fitness Center for decades. The other fitness facility operated by
 the hospital is located in Woodridge, a 20-minute drive from downtown
 Naperville, and will not be a viable alternative for many members. The
 Woodridge facility is also smaller and I doubt it could accommodate all the
 members from both facilities. There is no substitute in the Naperville area for
 the pool and water rehabilitation facilities which are in the Fitness Center, and
 no other fitness facility has such a central location in the heart of Naperville
 close to business district and the train station. In addition, I understand that
 most of the wonderful staff at this facility, many of whom have worked there for
 many years, are being let go. For a hospital whose slogan is "Healthy Driven" it
 is indeed puzzling why it would choose to close a facility so important to the
 preventive health of the community in favor of more profit centered activities.

 Jeff Eastman (Naperville) member of the Naperville Waves swim club - Closure
 of the Edwards Health and Fitness Center - I would like to point out to the
 Council that, while the city of Naperville provides a wealth of wonderful
 fitness-related facilities to the community, it currently provides no aquatic
 facilities. Swimming and other aquatics activities provide low impact exercise
 that residents of all ages can benefit from. The closure of the Edwards facility
 and other health clubs in the area diminishes even further the facilities that are
 available to residents. This is an opportunity for the Council to develop new
 plans for providing needed aquatic facilities to the communities. Thanks for your
 consideration!

 Drew Lecher (Naperville) Members of EHFC and myself - EHFC Closing - My
 wife and I have been members for almost 20 years. EHFC has been a
 God-send for our health. The use of all the training equipment and the lap pool
 are amazing to have. We all felt the blow when things closed down due to the
 Covid effect. It was difficult to return, but we did and haven't stopped since. Now
 someone has made a huge mistake, by deciding to close EHFC! Brilliant! So
 the hospital is not interested in providing facilities for us to maintain and even
 improve our health. This goes against the ethos of American culture and the
 support of the individual to improve their lives and that of others. It always
 seems to boil down to $$$$$$. If this closure goes through, I recommend that
 all of us take our medical needs elsewhere. Chicago area is full of world class
 health care facilities - all within a short drive. Hm - about 2,500 "patients" could
 easily effect the balance sheet… Drew Lecher Resident since 1982

 Verónica (Naperville) Naperville waves - Edward fitness center sudden closure -
 My name is Veronica Perez I am writhing to oppose the sudden closure of the
 edwards fitness center. I been a member of the fitness center for the past 14
 yrs, with son who has Autism and he is already very limited of what he can do
 or places he can attend due to his Autism. We attended the facility 4 to 5 times
 a week, my son enjoy playing basketball, swimming, edwards employees are
 like our second family, my son feel comfortable around them, swimming is been
 making miracles for my son like boosting his self steam , reducing negative

City of Naperville Page 7 Printed on 3/21/2023
City Council Meeting Minutes March 7, 2023

 behaviors like reducing his anxiety, he is always a better person after he is done
 swimming. I really don’t think is a good idea the closure of the facility, like my
 son there are many other special needs members that feel very comfortable at
 this facility, moving them to another place will be a big deal, in my case it will
 take years for my son till he will feel comfortable in a new place due to his
 Autism. Many elderly people gather there every day and relay of this facility to
 exercise and socialize, please take a moment en consider this sudden
 decision. Naperville is already lacking of a public indoor pool to serve the needs
 of this great community.

 Don Secor (Naperville) - I am writing on behalf of the Naperville Waves Swim
 Club and members of Edward-Elmhurst Health Fitness (EEHF) in regards to
 EEHF closing down their Naperville facility on March 31. This decision not only
 affects the many members of EEHF but it heavily impacts the Naperville Waves
 Swim club and EEFH members who utilize the pool there. The pool at 7 Bridges
 is too small to accommodate a 200 member masters swim team and its other
 members who utilize it for exercise. The facility itself will not be able to handle
 the increased attendance, the pool stands no chance. Naperville has a wealth of
 fitness related facilities, but they do not provide any swim related facilities. This
 is a town with 2 very big age group swim teams, a 200 member masters swim
 team (and that number would be much larger if we had more pool time
 available) plus countless triathletes. Naperville, has running paths, bike paths,
 parks, gyms, courts, you name it except for a proper swim facility. This is
 beyond embarrassing for a city of our size and the amount of taxes we pay to
 live here. Naperville has had ample opportunities in the past to build a
 natatorium but every time refuses to do so. As recent as a few years ago
 Naperville sent out a survey about what to do with the land at 95th and Wolf’s
 Crossing. The overwhelming response from your constituents was to build a
 swim facility. And once again we were ignored. Now EEFH is going to close
 down the Naperville facility which will effectively decimate the Naperville Waves
 swim team and leave countless others without a pool to swim. I realize there is
 probably not much The City Council can do to prevent this from happening but
 we implore you to take a close look at this and see what can be done to salvage
 this situation. Whether that is by working with EEHF to remain open or maybe
 by realizing that this city needs a proper swim facility. EEHF is closing due to
 money reasons, but their parent company, Northshore University Health System
 has a $$1.3 billion surplus in 2021. Whatever maintenance needs to be done to
 keep EEHF open, Northshore has the means to do so. Northshore closing
 EEFH to build a patient care facility sends the message that they would rather
 people become ill or injured so that it can boost profits rather than encouraging
 people to stay healthy. Exercising at EEHF helps it members to maintain their
 physical, social, mental and emotional well-being. Closing a fitness center is
 antithetical to what the mission of a healthcare provider should be. Thank you
 for taking the time to consider helping out countless members of your
 community. Don

 Anthony Trunnell (Naperville) - EHFC Member and local business owner -
 Trunnell Insurance Services LLC - I wanted to speak publicly tonight, but it's my
 wife's 45th birthday and cancelling our dinner plans wasn't going to go over well.
 lol There's no reason everyone can't be happy in this situation. There is plenty of
 land. Edwards could easily incorporate a fitness club into the first floor of a

City of Naperville Page 8 Printed on 3/21/2023
City Council Meeting Minutes March 7, 2023

 brand new building on the same site and build another parking dec on the south
 lot. I question why this wasn't explored before the sudden announcement to
 close. This is one of the downsides of Edward's recent mergers: The people
 making decisions at the top are not connected to the community so pure profit
 becomes their singular motivation. I get the feeling the same executives who
 made this decision without any community input will show up with hat in hand
 and ask the city council for all kinds of favors regarding zoning and ordinance
 exceptions. I'm asking the City Council to vote down any new proposed
 structure by Edwards Elmhurst that doesn't incorporate a new health facility for
 the community AND its employees. Thank you for your time and consideration

 Guido Gavars (Naperville) - Naperville Waves Swim Club “Healthy Driven” is the
 motto or tagline for the Edward Health System. Unfortunately, their recent
 decision to close the fitness center on Brom Drive appears to contradict this
 motto. While I understand and respect that a private business (i.e. Edward
 Hospital) has a right to operate as they wish, Edward also operates as a
 Non-Profit (EDWARD-ELMHURST HEALTHCARE EIN: 36-3513954) and
 claims to support numerous community support functions. Per their website,
 the mission of Edward-Elmhurst is: “advancing the health of our communities
 by providing financial and management assistance to its exempt affiliates”,
 including Edward Health and Fitness. As a member of Edward Health and
 Fitness, I repeatedly am reminded of all the positive effects of exercise and
 wellness the center provides on a daily basis. And while many facilities can offer
 land-based options, few offer pool or water-based activities. Edward Health on
 Brom has a unique group of lap, therapy, and whirlpools providing conditioning,
 rehab, therapy and water safety/education opportunities and programs. On any
 day there may be swim teams and triathletes working out, swim lessons for
 adults, pre-natal/neo-natal conditioning, low-impact conditioning, or classes for
 those afflicted with numerous medical conditions limiting land-based exercise.
 Removing this asset harms Naperville at large and is contrary to its mission.
 And while I realize the COVID has impacted many businesses adversely, this
 closure along with closure of the Kroehler YMCA removes valuable services
 from the downtown area. Edward’s “announcement” of closure was/is a sign on
 the door that states they are closing in 30 days. That’s it, nothing else. No
 community discussions, outreach, etc. This left both the membership and those
 employed at Edward shocked, dismayed and saddened at the way they were
 treated. Frankly, this is reminiscent of Mayor Daley’s overnight bulldozing of
 Meigs Field to build Northerly Island: heavy-handed and short-sighted.
 Respectfully, I implore the City Council to help communicate to Edward the
 disservice to our community and my opposition to the closing of the Brom
 facility. Regards, Guido Gavars

 Lauren Bezdek (Naperville) - I am writing to express my hope that the City can
 work with Edward-Elmhurst Health and Fitness Center and their parent
 company to work through a mutually beneficial solution that does not involve
 closure of the fitness center. Many people I know would be negatively affected
 by this closure; people with special needs as well as senior citizens and a swim
 team who relies on this center. Closing the facility would be a true loss to our
 community and would have a negative impact on our community’s wellness

 Marilyn L Schweitzer (Naperville) - I think most people would agree that we live

City of Naperville Page 9 Printed on 3/21/2023
City Council Meeting Minutes March 7, 2023

 in a time of heightened divisiveness. One way to reverse course is by choosing
 our words carefully so as smooth rather than inflame a sensitive or potential
 volatile situation. Thus, I was very disappointed that the announcement to close
 the Edward-Elmhurst Health & Fitness on Brom Drive included the phrase “We
 realize that change is never easy, but...”. I’ve heard this phrase too numerous
 times to count on issues going before the PZC and City Council. Change is
 often easy and desirable. Change happens for good or for worse. People’s
 viewpoints regarding change should not be dismissed callously. In the case of
 closing the fitness center, for example, driving to a facility 6 miles away and only
 giving 1 month’s notice are legitimate concerns. A well respected community
 partner such as Edward’s could have and should have been more sensitive and
 instead make an attempt to win over detractors by acknowledging that there
 may be downsides to the change and asking for suggestions that would make
 the transition easier. I’m not trying alter Edward’s decision to close the fitness
 center. But, I wish all entities would take more time forming announcements
 and appeals. Words indeed do matter.

 Anonymous (Naperville) - Dear City Council, I am a Naperville resident of over
 30 years, and I submit the following comments regarding the closure of the
 Naperville Edward-Elmhurst Health and Fitness Center. I am submitting my
 comments anonymously due to part-time employment of a member of my
 household by an Edward entity, and I wish to avoid possible retaliation. While I
 don’t know if Naperville can influence the closure of the fitness center, this
 decision and the conduct of Northshore/Edward-Elmhurst as not-for-profit
 corporations in Naperville concerns me greatly, and I would ask City Council to
 scrutinize the actions and motivations of NS/Edward-Elmhurst going forward as
 it relates to their operations and impact on our city. The question comes to mind
 as to whether Edward continues to fulfill the requirements of a not-for-profit, and
 should their conduct be reflected in how our city deals with this organization?
 Does Edward continue to meet its obligations to our community as a
 not-for-profit? Edward isn’t the same community hospital/health care system of
 the past. The hospital suggests that patient care needs trump the function of the
 fitness center at the hospital campus; that is pretext for economic motives. My
 household is like thousands in Naperville-we have turned to Edward and its
 excellent medical providers for most of our medical needs from primary care,
 childbirth, serious illnesses, surgery, and emergency care. That is what you
 expect from a not-for-profit community-based hospital and health care system,
 and I am grateful to have lived minutes from 801 S. Washington St. Not so
 anymore-I now have to make finances a factor before seeking care from
 Edward and its affiliated entities. Can I practically use my trusted and skilled
 Edward-affiliated doctors? Sadly, despite excellent health insurance and
 in-network coverage, Edward business practices force me to fully vet, to the
 extent possible, finances up front, and regrettably, my household increasingly
 goes elsewhere for care. Once you receive care, and it comes to billing,
 Edward stops acting like a not-for-profit. That is fine-but it should not expect to
 continue to enjoy the benefits and status of a not-for-profit when it comes to
 treatment and taxation by the City of Naperville. Current Edward leadership
 forgets that its medically-based fitness center was a product of Edward
 innovation-and to this day, the Naperville fitness center is an integral part of
 Edward’s delivery of health care to its community of customers. The Naperville
 club’s location, on the hospital campus and in our city, is key to its credibility

City of Naperville Page 10 Printed on 3/21/2023
City Council Meeting Minutes March 7, 2023

 and effectiveness in achieving health in our community and for thousands of
 Naperville residents and Naperville-based Edward employees. With rare
 exception, anyone at the Naperville center can tell you how it impacted their
 health-be it prevention, treatment, or recovery. Every single member of my
 household has recovered from a surgery at this fitness center, and yes, even
 one of us was CURED of disease in large part by working out at Naperville. It
 just doesn’t make as much money as other health care streams. City Council, if
 there is anything our city can do to prevent the loss of this resource, please act.
 Thank you.

 WRITTEN COMMENT ONLY
 Marilyn L Schweitzer (Naperville) - The lackadaisical effort to prioritize affordable
 housing in Naperville and this plan is not what I would have wished for my
 community. While the plan may be "intended to confirm Naperville’s
 commitment to increasing affordable housing", it is an extremely weak
 committal as it has been for the last twenty years or more. Nothing in the plan
 that I can tell will create well distributed affordable housing nor different types to
 meet a variety of needs. Even beyond having a plan to improve the % of
 affordable housing in Naperville, Naperville should have begun monitoring and
 transparently reporting on its affordable housing stock. This includes setting a
 goal, what areas in the city affordable housing is lacking, where progress is
 being made, and metrics as to various types of affordable housing. For example
 both the states calculation and the city's preferred calculation and senior versus
 non-senior affordable housing. Again, I refer you to the Charleston, SC
 affordable housing dashboard:
 <https://www.arcgis.com/apps/dashboards/357b5d4150db47f486de491447
 6cc079> The city has squandered many opportunities instead of wholeheartedly
 embracing the problem. I hope the city and council will have a change in heart.

 concerns and stated that development of 119th Street is outside Pulte authority,
 that Pulte considered the immediate-mid-long-term traffic improvements,
 engaged government entities, and presented the best package to facilitate the
 development.

 Council discussed the five-year history of the project, the improvement
 schedule for 119th Street, that the process changed for the better with improved
 collaboration when Pulte became involved, whether the Hawkweed connection
 should jeopardize the entire development, and that residents want the gate
 opened only after the improvements to 119th Street have been made.

 Council stated the need to find compromise, discussed the impact to public
 safety response times, appropriateness of extending the gate closure another
 five years or opening the gate when the subdivision is finished.

 Novack explained that the gate would be locked and not equipped with a
 transponder.

 Puknaitis and Arres stated that the locked gate will add minutes to response
 times.

 Council stated that five years was the compromise that was approved in
 November, discussed the time added to emergency calls, the number of left
 turns, the importance of accessibility, having the gate equipped with a
 transponder, the need to rely on experts, and misuse of the City logo on flyers
 related to Polo Club residents and schools.

 WRITTEN COMMENT ONLY
 Kim Loyza - Greetings City of Naperville Leaders,
 I would like to add to the below concerns of my fellow residents on the
 connection of the Pulte Polo Development through Hawkweed Drive. This is an
 unnecessary endangerment to our children who have lived here for years.
 Progress should be improvement, not regression. I urge you to consider the
 residents of South Pointe when making decisions that affect our lives. I also
 have concerns about the impact to the environment given the Nature Preserve -
 we often see animals in the field that will now be displaced. And I further have
 major concerns that this new development will force water into our easement
 that already builds up to several feet due to the polo field. But should a
 development be inevitable, which unfortunately it seems the sale of this land is,
 please push to do so responsibly and at the very least make a permanent end
 to the question of connectivity through Hawkweed Dr. Thank you for your time.
 Respectfully, Kim Loyza

 Re: VACATE HAWKWEED DRIVE IN PROPOSED PULTE DEVELOPMENT
 South Pointe and High Meadow neighborhoods in South Naperville embody
 thousands of young adult residents with a significant Child population. South
 Pointe and High Meadow Families want to maintain our Children’s safe
 surroundings! It is our concern that if the City of Naperville decides to approve
 the Pulte Development proposal, that South Pointe and High Meadow will in fact
 become a high-volume relief valve for lack of infrastructure today at Rt. 59 and
 119th St. With no proper arterial roads available to the proposed Pulte
 development, South Pointe and High Meadow's interior roads and their main
 entry/exit roads (which today are next to the very busy and thriving Graham
 Elementary school) will no longer be a safe place for kids to play and bike.
 South Pointe Pool at Champion Rd. and the South Pointe Park will be steps
 from a new influx of dangerous cut-through traffic coming to/from Hawkweed.
 We respectfully request that prior to any annex consideration by our City
 Council that Hawkweed Drive be vacated at
 Polo and an EV accessible Cul-de-sac constructed. Temporary Only Closure is
 not a sustainable option for our Kids. We urge the City to thoughtfully review
 what seemingly small adjustments in road access could do to entire
 neighborhoods as traffic will always adjust to take the path of least resistance.
 In the case of the proposed Pulte development, potential future residents and

City of Naperville Page 17 Printed on 3/21/2023
City Council Meeting Minutes March 7, 2023

 transient 119th travelers will quickly realize the easiest way in and out is to avoid
 gridlock at Rt. 59 and 119th and instead cut through High Meadow, to South
 Pointe, to their Pulte home.

 Stephanie Biernbaum - Greetings City of Naperville Leaders,
 As a resident of the South Pointe subdivision, I would like to once again implore
 you to vacate Hawkweed Drive should you proceed with the Polo Club
 development. The proposal to gate Hawkweed for 5 years or until 119th is
 properly addressed (whichever comes first) is unacceptable. All involved parties
 (the developer, city council, residents) agree that 119th traffic flow needs to be
 resolved. It is a foreseeable outcome that transient traffic will naturally take
 advantage of a new northbound route between 119th and 111th through the
 subdivisons. The only way to stop this is to either vacate Hawkweed or address
 the traffic issue on 119th. The 5 year wait proposal is arbitrary, disingenious,
 and illogical. It is very simple, Hawkweed should be opened once and only once
 119th is addressed. Opening Hawkweed should not be based on an arbritrary
 timeline but rather on the criteria of actually resolving the problem. Please
 consider the safety of our children and do the right thing. Stephanie Biernbaum

 Michael Krzywinski - Hello, I live in South Pointe near the Hawkweed
 connection. I support this connection and opening it right away without a gate. I
 have 2 small kids and do not think there are traffic concerns. This connection
 will give direct access to the Polo Club park, fields, and trails without having to
 drive through 2 traffic signals and making left turns(which is unsafe). It will also
 give access to 119th street for our subdivision, which is a benefit to South
 Pointe. I think that the best option for the residents and the future was to make
 the connection, just like other subdivisions. This is just like in the 200s when our
 South Pointe Subdivision connected to High Meadow and it works well now.
 Why I do not believe cut thru traffic would be an issue is that the majority of the
 traffic backup at 119th and Route 59 is due to vehicles wanting to travel west to
 Plainfield. For them to avoid the backup, they would have to turn right, drive
 through Polo Club & South Pointe streets, wait to turn left at Champion Rd
 signal, then wait to turn right at the Route 59 signal, which is very unlikely.

 Diane Schwarz - Greetings City of Naperville Leaders, Re: VACATE
 HAWKWEED DRIVE IN PROPOSED PULTE DEVELOPMENT South Pointe
 and High Meadow neighborhoods in South Naperville embody thousands of
 young adult residents with asignificant Child population. South Pointe and High
 Meadow Families want to maintain our Children’s safe surroundings! It is our
 concern that if the City of Naperville decides to approve the Pulte Development
 proposal, that South Pointe and High Meadow will in fact become a high-volume
 relief valve for lack of infrastructure today at Rt. 59 and 119th St. With no proper
 arterial roads available to the proposed Pulte development, South Pointe and
 High Meadow's interior roads and their main entry/exit roads (which today are
 next to the very busy and thriving Graham Elementary school) will no longer be
 a safe place for kids to play and bike. South Pointe Pool at Champion Rd. and
 the South Pointe Park will be steps from a new influx of dangerous cut-through
 traffic coming to/from Hawkweed. We respectfully request that prior to any
 annex consideration by our City Council that Hawkweed Drive be vacated at
 Polo and an EV accessible Cul-de-sac constructed. Temporary Only Closure is
 not a sustainable option for our Kids. We urge the City to thoughtfully review

 what seemingly small adjustments in road access could do to entire
 neighborhoods as traffic will always adjust to take the path of least resistance.
 In the case of the proposed Pulte development, potential future residents and
 transient 119th travelers will quickly realize the easiest way in and out is to avoid
 gridlock at Rt. 59 and 119th and instead cut through High Meadow, to South
 Pointe, to their Pulte home. Sincerely, Diana Schwarz

M. AWARD OF BIDS AND OTHER ITEMS OF EXPENDITURE:

N. PETITIONS AND COMMUNICATIONS:

O. REPORTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS:

1. Approve the staff recommendation to transition all commuter parking to daily fee and
 eliminate the quarterly permit program
 Michael Hackett (Naperville) spoke against the proposal to eliminate the
 quarterly permit program.

 Council discussed eliminating an antiquated permit process, fees, and creating
 discounted programs for frequent ridership.

 Louden explained benefits of the daily fee parking method including data
 gathering, that there are currently more spaces than is needed, Metra is not
 seeing return to ridership, and as demand increases staff will introduce
 technology solutions. She went on to say that staff has not identified a new rate,
 that any revenue will need to cover expenses, and that flexibility in ridership fees
 can be based on day of the week instead of by user.

 Council discussed communication strategies and appropriateness of tabling to
City of Naperville Page 21 Printed on 3/21/2023
City Council Meeting Minutes March 7, 2023

 get more commuter input.

 Mayer explained that rates have not been determined and that the fund balance
 has been declining since 2020.

 Louden detailed commuter outreach, the September 2022 Commuter Survey,
 that the proposal is based on feedback from survey and is in line with principles
 established in 2021. She discussed the elimination of Parkview permits in 2021
 and stated that in all cases the decisions were made after direction was set and
 feedback received. She concluded by stating that the action requested is setting
 the direction and ordinances will come back for Council review.

 Council discussed available technology, fairness to riders, ridership is down,
 that everyone should be able to get a space, and the need to utilize the
 commuter parking email list for outreach.

 POSITION STATEMENT

 SUPPORT
 Marilyn L Schweitzer (Naperville)

 WRITTEN COMMENT ONLY
 Paul Biles (Naperville) - City of Naperville City Council, Mayor, City Manager,
 Director of TED, Project Manager, et al., As you consider a shift from freezing
 the downtown Naperville Station permit waitlist to ending or terminating the
 quarterly permit program altogether, I respectfully request that you consider
 refunding deposits made by those not yet called for a permit. For example, I
 personally have two (2) deposits (both Kroehler and Burlington/Parkview) that
 due to the waitlist and then due to the suspension of the program, I have been
 unable to realize either as a permit for the Downtown Naperville Metra Station.
 Administrative or not, these deposits were made in good faith that permits
 would be issued when available. As the City shifts gears and repurposes the
 lots, I feel that residents are due a refund for the service that you will be unable
 to fulfill. If a cash or check refund is not possible, please consider a pre-paid
 card that could be used at the station daily fee machines, which could help
 commuters and residents offset future Metra train station parking since we’ve
 been bearing $2.00 or $5.00 daily expenses in the meantime. As we continue to
 weather the pandemic and post-pandemic reduction, suspension, and
 termination of services (such as the Guaranteed Ride Home Program and Pace
 weekday rush hour service, to name a couple of examples), I feel the City has
 collected quite a bit of funds that I believe should be refunded or returned to
 commuters/residents as a result of the City’s staff’s recommendation for
 termination. Sincerely, Paul A. Biles

 Elise Crawley (Naperville) - OPPOSITION As a Naperville resident who uses
 the route 59 parking lot five days a week to commute downtown and pays for
 permit parking, I strongly oppose the proposal to eliminate the permit parking at
 route 59 and change all spots to daily fee parking. I have several concerns
 about the ways this proposal would make my daily commute substantially
 worse and disincentivize my use of the commuter lot. As a prefatory matter, I
 want to be clear that my comments can only encompass the proposal as it

City of Naperville Page 22 Printed on 3/21/2023
City Council Meeting Minutes March 7, 2023

 applies to the Route 59 lot. I understand that different issues (specifically, a
 waitlist) exist in regard to the Naperville Fifth Avenue Station parking lot. I do not
 pretend that I have experience with that parking lot or ideas about how to solve
 those problems. However, I object to the idea that a change to solve issues at
 the Naperville Station Lot be imposed on the Route 59 stations lot just because
 both lots are in Naperville. There is no reason why the lots can't be treated
 differently given their differing locations and usage patterns. With that said, it is
 unclear to me what problem exists at the Route 59 station that is "solved" by
 making all spot into daily fee parking. The proposal indicates that daily fee
 parking is more "fair" because it is available on a first come, first served basis. It
 further indicates that permit parking spaces are being underutilized because not
 all permitted spaces are being used. Finally, the proposal describes daily fee
 parking as an advantage for commuters, because it is more "flexible" and
 commuters only pay for parking on the days they need. Changing all spots to
 daily fee parking is inherently unfair. Allocating spots on a first come, first served
 basis always advantages the same people whose work schedules start earlier
 in the day. It is the same as saying we're always going to pass out leftover
 cupcakes in alphabetical order. Those with names starting with "A" are always
 going to be advantaged compared to those whose names start with "Z." The
 first come, first served model with parking is also problematic given that those
 who arrive later in the morning are also more likely to come back from the city
 later at night. Given that people are almost certain to elect to take the spots
 nearer the platform first, this means commuters with later schedules are
 always going to be stuck walking farther distances back out to their cars in the
 dark. Permit parking being underutilized is not inherently problematic, unless
 there are not enough daily fee spots to meet the need of those who want them.
 That is not the case. The proposal acknowledges that only 50% of the daily fee
 parking spaces are being used. There is no lack of parking at the Route 59
 station lot. I acknowledge that the permitted parking spots are better situated
 than the daily fee spots. If the proposal was to shrink the size of the permitted
 parking area, I would have no objections to that proposal. I just don't understand
 why the permitted parking system needs to be entirely abolished to accomplish
 this goal. Espousing "flexibility" for consumers is just hiding that this proposal
 would significantly increase the parking cost for commuters who consistently
 use the Route 59 station lot. If we use the current month (March 2023) as an
 example, there are 23 weekdays this month. The daily fee parking cost is $$2
 (more if you don't keep an extensive reserve of cash and pay by credit card).
 Therefore, the monthly parking cost for daily fee parking would be $$46. Under
 the current permit system, the cost averages $$30 per month. I am not against
 paying more money for my permit parking. Being able to park my car in a spot
 near the platform and walk right on the train without having to deal with queuing
 at a machine to try and remember which parking space number is mine today
 and then trying to jab all the correct buttons when the temperature is hovering
 around zero degrees and then fumbling for my credit card while the train is
 approaching the station is worth a significant sum to me. I would happily pay an
 average of $$50 per month to retain the advantages of my permit parking. The
 proposal as it exists imposes significant increased time, money, and
 convenience costs on those who utilize the parking lot the most and provides
 only a modest benefit (access to some of the closer spots) to those who use it
 less frequently for daily fee parking. Finally, this proposal is unclear about what
 changes would be made to the Route 59 lot to make this practicable. There are

City of Naperville Page 23 Printed on 3/21/2023
City Council Meeting Minutes March 7, 2023

 only 5 machines that process daily fee parking. Are they going to add additional
 machines or just require everyone to wait in a line for one everyday? The
 proposal references an offset of the cost of the signage changes this proposal
 would require by the savings in not having to mark the spot numbers on the
 pavement. At Route 59, none of the space number are marked on the
 pavement. All of them the spot numbers are on signs suspended above the
 spaces. Therefore, there is no savings to be had on the incremental cost of
 marking the pavement. Unless this proposal means to be changing how people
 pay for spots (the Aurora lot, for example, has people put in their license plate
 number), but that would presumably require new machines or updates of the
 current machines, which are not programed that way. A more cohesive
 proposal should be required to effectuate such a significant change. I
 understand and have personally seen that use of the Route 59 train station
 parking lot has significantly decreased with the pandemic. Only in the last few
 months has any part of the lot started to look even a little bit full. For that reason,
 I think this proposal is, at minimum, premature. People who have just started
 returning to commuting downtown are not necessarily going to immediately
 elect permit parking but may move to that over time as they see the
 advantages. Moreover, I would encourage that the council reject this proposal,
 or, at minimum, revisit this proposal next year after the COVID 19 emergency
 officially ends in May 2023.
 A motion was made by Councilman White, seconded by Councilman Hinterlong,
 to approve the staff recommendation to transition all commuter parking to daily
 fee and eliminate the quarterly permit program. The motion carried by a voice
 vote.
