 Thank you to everyone for participating in tonight’s public forum portion of our
 meeting. All comments received are memorialized into the record. You have
 been heard by the Council and the community and will be in our minutes
 forever. Naperville residents have entrusted the City Council with the
 responsibility of determining whether official City action is appropriate,
 responsible, and in the interest of our community. We are guided by the City’s
 mission statement and powers and functions section of the Naperville Municipal
 Code. The City Council does not intend to initiate a cease-fire resolution. This
 situation is clearly outside the scope of our local municipal government. We all
 mourn the loss of human life and hope for peace to prevail soon.

 The meeting recessed from 8:02 p.m. to 8:12 p.m.

 Council discussed the Mayor's statement and expressed sympathy for the
 conflicts around the world that have resulted in the loss of life.

 WRITTEN COMMENT ONLY

 Steve Cushman (Naperville) The City Council should not endorse any matters
 related to the Israel Hamas issue. The council is elected to weigh in on city
 matters and not foreign policy issues. Federal officials are elected by voters for
 matters like this. Do not be bullied by the protest groups disrupting City Council
 meetings and, most recently, disrupting downtown traffic. I find it especially
 offensive that some of this group are not Naperville citizens. Let them disrupt
 their own towns. Thank you.

 Dana Fish (Naperville) I thank the City Council for refusing to place the ceasefire
 on the agenda. Naperville should not be involved in any international disputes
 because it is a unit of local government. As a Jewish resident of Naperville, I
 would feel threatened if my community passes a resolution supporting a cease
 fire with Hamas, a terrorist organization that has stated it will continue to murder
 Jews again and again and again. Israel has the right to protect herself. There
 was a cease fire on place on October 6. Unfortunately, the events on October 7,
 2023 changed the course of history. On that date, Hamas, the Iran-backed
 terror group controlling Gaza-- which won the Palestinian legislative elections-
 -launched an unprovoked and vicious surprise attack on Israel. These terrorists
 infiltrated Israel to murder and kidnap Israelis. In this attack, Hamas murdered
 over 1,300 Israelis, wounded 12,000 and took over 230 hostages into
 Gaza-including babies under 1 year of age and young children. During this
 infiltration, Hamas members brutally raped Israeli girls and women, while
 mutilating their genitalia, cutting off body parts, and then murdering the victims.

City of Naperville Page 5 Printed on 4/3/2024
City Council Meeting Minutes - Final March 19, 2024

 Naperville should not be involved in international politics. Looking back through
 several years of council minutes, I could find no other instance where Naperville
 has ever passed a resolution calling for the ceasing of violence against any
 group. There have been and currently are numerous communities around the
 world suffering from oppression, violence and murder, including but not limited
 to the Coptic Christians in Egypt, the Rohingya Muslims in Myanmar, and the
 Uighur Muslims in China. There were no resolutions regarding any of these
 communities. Naperville did not pass a resolution condemning the murder of
 hundreds of thousands of Syrians by the Assad regime or the kidnap and
 murder of thousands of Yazidis by ISIS. I have not seen any calls from citizens
 of Naperville to condemn the kidnapping last week of more than 400 Christians
 from Nigeria (at least 287 of whom are teachers and children). These groups
 have endured unspeakable atrocities and deserve our attention and support. By
 prioritizing a ceasefire in Gaza without addressing the plight of other persecuted
 groups, you are sending a message of selective concern and disregard for the
 suffering of all of humankind. Additionally, for the small community of Jewish
 citizens in Naperville, the demands for a ceasefire resolution (and the discord
 that request sows) brings about a sense of unease and insecurity. I can tell you
 that it has made me feel unwelcome in my own city and afraid for myself and
 my family’s safety. It has made me feel alone amongst my neighbors. By
 appeasing Hamas and its supporters in the US, you are emboldening those who
 seek to harm Jews both abroad and at home. Furthermore, the ceasefire
 resolution fails to acknowledge the legitimate security concerns of Israel,
 including the constant threat of rocket attacks and terrorism from Hamas and its
 associated groups in the Middle East. By disregarding these concerns, you will
 alienate your Jewish community members and send the message that their
 safety and well-being are not a priority. It is undoubtedly distressing to witness
 innocent deaths in Gaza. It is also essential to recognize that Hamas, as a
 designated terrorist organization, bears the responsibility for the ongoing
 violence and instability in the region. By passing a resolution for a ceasefire with
 Hamas, you are legitimizing and emboldening an entity that continues to target
 civilians and promote extremism. Moreover, Hamas's corrupt governing of the
 Palestinian people in Gaza, their continued indiscriminate firing of rockets at
 civilians in Israel, and their promises of continued violence and murder against
 Jews worldwide has escalated tensions and threatened the safety and security
 of innocent people on both sides of the conflict. By endorsing a ceasefire, you
 fail to hold Hamas accountable for their actions and undermine efforts to
 achieve a lasting peace. I understand the desire to prevent further bloodshed
 and alleviate the suffering of civilians (civilians on both sides of this complex
 conflict). However, any call for a ceasefire must be accompanied by a call for
 the return of the Israeli hostages, concrete steps to disarm Hamas, dismantle
 their infrastructure, and promote reconciliation and coexistence among all
 parties involved. It should be noted that there was a ceasefire in place on
 October 6, 2023, and that ceasefire was broken by Hamas. Additionally, there
 have been several offers of a ceasefire made by Israel- all of which have been
 refused by Hamas. If Hamas would release the hostages and lay down their
 arms, there would be no further fighting, and I believe it would encourage the
 development of a Palestinian state and stability in the region. I urge you to not
 get involved in global politics and to keep your focus on the concerns of this city.

 David Fish (Naperville) I request that my wonderful Naperville, where I have

City of Naperville Page 6 Printed on 4/3/2024
City Council Meeting Minutes - Final March 19, 2024

 raised my kids and have a business (Fish Potter Bolanos, PC), not get involved
 in international politics. There was a cease fire on October 6. This all changed
 after Hamas terrorists raped and murdered countless Israelis on October 7.
 Israel has the right to defend itself. To paraphrase a former Israeli Prime
 Minister: “If the [Palestinians] put down their weapons today, there would be no
 more violence. If the Jews put down their weapons today, there would be no
 more Israel.” -Golda Meir Thank you for staying out of this international conflict
 and you hard work on making our City great!

 Sandra Lehner (Chicago) The morning of October 7th, battalions of Hamas
 terrorists and other terrorist groups in Gaza, followed by a number of civilians
 from Gaza invaded Israel. The terrorists murdered children and parents in their
 homes on kibbutzim, which are agricultural collectives in Israel, in the cruelest
 ways, committed rape and mutilation of women’s bodies, and murdered over
 300 young people attending a music festival for peace. Hamas terrorists
 murdered 1,200 people in Israel including young people from Nepal and Africa
 who came to study agriculture, and foreign workers and Arabs. The terrorists
 took 200+ hostages from Israel to Gaza including a baby and his 4 year old
 brother. One hundred twenty (120) hostages are still being held in Gaza and it
 has been over 5 months. No one knows their condition and the International Red
 Cross has not checked on the hostages well being even once. Some hostages
 were seriously injured by the terrorists on October 7th and some need
 medication for illness. Reports from hostages who were released are that they
 were given very little food or water, a number of young women hostages were
 beaten and raped. Hamas has recently rejected ceasefire deals and release of
 the hostages. Israel is fighting Hamas in Gaza and Israel’s military works to
 prevent civilian casualties. It is well known and even stated by President Biden
 in his recent SOTU address that Hamas terrorists have built their rocket
 launchers and weapons of war close to schools, hospitals, mosques, and other
 civilian areas. Hamas even threatens its civilians not to evacuate buildings
 where Israel has notified civilians to evacuate for their safety. Hamas’s strategy
 is to attack Israel, kill the greatest number of civilians in Israel by burning them
 alive, beheading them and executing them, and by firing over 10,000 rockets at
 cities in Israel. Then when Israel responds to stop the rockets and attacks from
 Gaza, Hamas maximizes the casualties of its civilians while the terrorists hide
 in tunnels. They expect the world to demand Israel stop fighting the terrorists
 and leave Gaza with an immediate ceasefire. If Hamas survives, then they
 consider this victory and can plan the next massacre in Israel. The call for a
 ceasefire that leaves Hamas in power will only result in more deaths and
 suffering in Israel and Gaza. Please do not vote for a ceasefire resolution that
 does not demand the release of the hostages and for Hamas to surrender so
 there is a chance for peace.

 Reem Townsend (Bolingbrook) I would like to encourage the board to bring up
 discussion on a ceasefire resolution in Gaza during new business. Your
 constituents have been asking for one for months. Plainfield, Bolingbrook, Villa
 Park, have all passed ceasefire resolutions and proclamations. Naperville
 board: please listen to your voters.

 WRITTEN COMMENTS
 Susan Bolda Marshall (Naperville) AAUW Naperville - Gender equity is a primary
 goal of the AAUW Naperville. As a result, we strongly endorse the importance of
 diversity, equity and inclusion training.We recognize that diversity extends
 beyond gender to include race, religious beliefs, political affiliation, ethnicity, age,
 socioeconomic status, physical or mental ability, exude orientation and more.
 Naperville is an increasingly diverse community. Acknowledging and embracing
 this diversity strengthens us as individuals and as a community. It is far too

City Council Meeting Minutes - Final March 19, 2024

 easy to reduce differences to an argument about who is right and who is wrong
 an and such arguments seem to be increasing in frequency and vitriol. Learning
 to value those differences takes effort and DEI training is one to we can employ.
 We applaud the city of Naperville staff and leadership for engaging in these
 efforts.

 Council discussed the ability to measure the results of the training, ownership of
 the materials, that DEI training is an investment, whether the proposed vendor
 can provide the training required by the State of Illinois to the Police Department,
 and if the proposed DEI training can be added to the City’s list of mandated
 training topics.
 A motion was made by Councilman Kelly, seconded by Councilman White, to
 approve the award of RFP 23-156, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Consultant
 Service to Envisioning Equity Work, LLC, for an amount not to exceed
 $115,470 and for a two-year term.




 Council continued to discuss negotiating to retain ownership and employing a
 “train the trainer” methodology.

 Mayer clarified that the staff negotiates terms into a contract and if something is
 not stipulated in the RFP there is the chance it would not be agreed to by the
 vendor. She stated that staff will contact the vendor to discuss Council’s
 suggestions.
 A motion in substitution was made by Councilman Holzhauer, seconded by
 Councilman White, to approve the award of RFP 23-156, Diversity, Equity and
 Inclusion Consultant Service to Envisioning Equity Work, LLC, for an amount not
 to exceed $115,470 and for a two-year term, that the City will retain the work
 product, and that staff will only agree to this contract if the vendor provides a
 work product that the City can retain. The motion failed by the following vote:

 Aye: 4- Bruzan Taylor, Holzhauer, Longenbaugh, and White

 Nay: 5- Wehrli, Kelly, Leong, McBroom, and Wilson




 Councilman Kelly withdrew the main motion. The second, Councilman White,

1. Receive the report on the background and operations of the Electric Utility

 SPEAKERS
 Greg Hubert (Naperville) discussed the upcoming renewal of the IMEA contract
 and requested that Council keep the public informed and allow residents to
 provide input.

 Rimvydas Gilvydis (Naperville) discussed the March 18, 2024 NEST community
 meeting, the IMEA sustainability plan, and stated that the plan needs to be
 studied thoroughly and objectively.

 Groth gave the first in a series of presentations on the Electric Utility and how it
 provides service to residents. Groth focused on how the utility carries out the
 City’s mission, historical decisions that still impact operations today such as
 deregulation and the decision to contract with IMEA as Naperville's power
 provider.

 Council inquired who provided electricity to the City prior to 1965 and what was
 the process that led to signing with IMEA and was a consultant hired to assist.
 Council discussed power outages, the long-term plan to bury the overhead
 lines, peak vs. non-peak usage periods, the appropriateness of developing a

City of Naperville Page 13 Printed on 4/3/2024
City Council Meeting Minutes - Final March 19, 2024

 plan to incent residents to use electricity at non-peak times, available options if
 the IMEA contract were not extended, and impacts to future re/development
 opportunities.

 Groth stated that he and his staff are currently reviewing several RFP
 responses for a consultant that will focus on financial projections and options on
 how the City will fulfill its service needs if the contract is not extended.
 The report was received.
