 The proclamation was presented by Councilman Kelly.

G. PUBLIC FORUM:

 SPEAKERS
 Electric strategy workshops
 Richard Stark (Naperville) discussed his proposed electric strategy workshops.

 Restaurant tax charged to caterers
 Megan Rousonelos (Plainfield - My Chef, Inc.) inquired about the restaurant tax
 passed in 2025 and how the caterers were notified.

 Munch stated that after the code was amended in November 2025, the City
 conducted targeted mailings to businesses identified as registered sales
 tax-paying entities within the City that were not currently paying the Food and
 Beverage tax. He noted that, due to inaccuracies in Illinois Department of
 Revenue records, it is possible that not every applicable business was
 contacted.

 Speaking against the adoption of the stretch codes
 Adam VanSomeren (Naperville - Charleston Building & Development) is

City of Naperville Page 3 Printed on 4/8/2026
City Council Meeting Minutes - Final March 18, 2026

 opposed to the adoption of the IL. stretch codes.

 Stretch energy code
 Christian Zenger (Naperville) is opposed to the adoption of the IL. stretch codes.



 Council discussed the adoption of the Illinois stretch energy codes,
 amendments to the Food and Beverage Tax particularly as it relates to caterers
 and the scheduling of a workshop to discuss the future energy needs of the City
 of Naperville and amending the March 3, 2026 Council meeting minutes.

 Munch stated that caterers have always been included in the Municipal Code
 under the Food and Beverage Tax. The recent revisions focused on distinctions
 between sit-down dining establishments and drive-thru businesses. He
 explained that while the Code was amended to better address drive-thru
 operations, there were other situations throughout the City where there was a
 perceived lack of equity in how the tax was applied. With the revisions made at
 the end of 2025, the Code now applies more broadly and equitably.

 By consensus, the Council requested that staff come back with a report
 outlining which events are affected by the recent revisions to the Food and
 Beverage Tax, the history of the tax as it relates to caterers, and whether a
 mechanism exists for outside caterers to remit the Food and Beverage Tax if
 they are not located within the City.

 Krieger stated that beginning with the first Council meeting in April, staff will
 provide monthly reports on the future energy needs of Naperville. The first report
 will focus on the mission of the Electric Utility, including timelines and detailed
 discussions of the various energy options available and the timeline for each
 option. Subsequent reports will provide in-depth reviews of each individual
 option, including the pros, cons, and associated risks. Following the completion
 of these reports and discussions anticipated in August, a discussion will take
 place regarding the scheduling of a strategic workshop.

N. PETITIONS AND COMMUNICATIONS:

O. REPORTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS:

1. Receive the preliminary 2025 year-end financial report

 Munch presented the preliminary 2025 year-end financial report, summarized
 the financial outcomes for the City’s major funds, discussed performance in key
 revenues and expenditures, and highlighted some of the areas staff is
 monitoring in the new year.

 Council discussed overtime costs and the status of the City’s reserves.

 Munch stated that SECA plays an important role in supporting overtime related
 to special events, noting that most of these costs are reimbursed through the
 Food and Beverage Fund. In addition, the City charges fees to groups
 requesting services for private or school events, which also generates revenue
 for the City. The City has committed to maintaining a 25% reserve goal. The last
 evaluation by the Finance Department indicated reserve levels were in the
 30-35% range. These reserves are intended for unanticipated events; however,
 once reserve levels exceed the required threshold, the City can consider how to
 allocate excess funds. Potential uses can include funding capital projects in lieu
 of bond financing. While much of the focus is on the General Fund, reserves
 also serve as a backstop for major utilities, such as Electric and Water, and
 other functions that may not maintain similarly robust reserve requirements
 beyond the 25% General Fund target.

2. Provide feedback regarding the potential development of the south 35 acres of the Nokia
 Campus, generally located at the northwest corner of Warrenville Road and Naperville
 Road, with residential uses
 DiSanto stated this agenda item is a special, informal concept-review session
 requested by the property owner, Franklin 1960 Lucent Lane, LLC, and its
 development partner, Pulte Home Company. The owner is seeking early,
 non-binding feedback from the Council on its proposal to rezone the
 approximately 35-acre site at 1960 Lucent Lane from the ORI District to the R3
 Medium-Density Multiple-Family Residence District for a townhome and
 rowhome development. This preview process is the same informal mechanism
 the City previously used for the Naper Commons project and that is at times
 employed in other communities for complex developments. It is intended to
 allow the Council and the public to provide early input so the owner does not
 expend further resources on a proposal that may not align with the City’s vision.
 By proceeding with this concept review at the owner’s specific request, the

 owner and developer acknowledge and agree that:

 1. This process is entirely non-binding;
 2. Any comments or feedback provided by the City Council this evening are
 subject to change at any time, including during any subsequent formal
 entitlement process;
 3. Neither the Planning and Zoning Commission nor the City Council is not
 bound by any input or feedback offered here; and
 4. This session confers no vested rights whatsoever to the property owner
 or the proposed developer.
 This opportunity is being extended at the owner’s request, and any decision to
 rely upon any information, opinions, input, or feedback received this evening is
 undertaken at the sole risk of the property owner and developer, without creating
 any binding precedent for the City.

 SPEAKERS

 Peter Friedman (Chicago -Elrod Friedman LLP - for the Petitioner) Council
 discussed the proposed residential development at the corner of Warrenville
 and Naperville Roads, formerly the Nokia Campus. The project is consistent
 with the City’s Land Use Master Plan and would include a 262-home,
 medium-density subdivision of single-family residences. The proposal indicates
 that approximately 40% of the homes would be townhomes, with the remaining
 60% consisting of row homes of varying widths. The development would include
 the establishment of a homeowners association (HOA) responsible for
 maintaining common areas, stormwater improvements, and the exterior of the
 homes. Pulte Homes has been identified as the potential developer for the
 subdivision.

 Clara Lambert (Naperville) is in support of the proposed development of the
 south 35 acres of the Nokia Campus.

 Priya Vincent (Naperville) is in support of the proposed development of the
 south 35 acres of the Nokia Campus.

 Marilyn Schweitzer (Naperville) Is generally supportive of the proposed
 development; however, additional consideration should be given to incorporating
 residential amenities that would also benefit the Naper Commons subdivision.

 Council discussed the inclusion of additional amenities within the proposed
 development, such as a coffee shop, fitness center, expanded walking paths,
 parks, and small-scale restaurants to better serve residents and the
 surrounding area. There was also interest in incorporating street names that
 reflect the past 50 years of the City’s diverse history. Council raised concerns
 regarding the potential impact of the development on local schools and the park
 district, as well as issues related to environmental impacts, housing
 affordability, and visitability standards. The discussion also referenced the
 ongoing I-88 corridor study, particularly as it relates to the appropriateness and
 integration of residential developments within that area.

 WRITTEN COMMENTS ONLY

 Sweta Shah (Naperville) As a neighboring resident, I am writing to express my
 support for the proposed residential development on the southern 35 acres of
 the Nokia campus, as well as the requested rezoning of the property from ORI
 to R3. This proposal aligns with the City’s Land Use Master Plan and is
 compatible with the character of the surrounding neighborhoods. It also reflects
 a thoughtful response by the property owner to significant community concerns
 regarding the previously proposed data center at this location. The proposal’s
 use of townhomes and rowhomes is consistent both with the medium-density
 housing outlined in the Land Use Master Plan and the context of surrounding
 neighborhoods. As the proposal moves forward, careful attention should be
 given to ensure that the overall density remains appropriate for the site, with
 ample green space preserved. Thank you for your consideration.

 Dan Johnson (Naperville) I'd like to thank the landowner for adjusting their plans
 for this property to better fit the City's changing needs and urge Council to
 consider it. Judging by the multiple proposals noted in the landowner's letter, a
 residential centered development is viable for this location. This stands in
 contrast to the lack of proposals spanning multiple years while the property is
 zoned ORI. This is evidence that the City's needs are changing. Another benefit
 of rezoning this property to residential could be to encourage development on
 other vacant ORI properties. The Ineos property is a less suitable parcel to be
 rezoned to residential since it backs up directly to the Tollway. By allowing this
 land to transition to residential, the City would be encouraging the development
 of the Ineos property, and others like it, by reducing the ORI supply. The
 landowners concept proposal also appears to aligns with the City's Land Use
 Master Plan, which would support rezoning. I urge Council to consider
 supporting rezoning to support townhomes and row homes as part of R2 or R3
 zoning.

P. NEW BUSINESS:

 Appointments to the City's Boards and Commissions

 Holzhauer inquired about the process for appointing applicants to the City’s
 Boards and Commissions and encouraged Council representatives, if they are
 aware of an upcoming appointment, to hold a meeting between the Council
 liaison and the Mayor prior to the appointment to ensure consistency with the
 process outlined on the City’s website.

 Mayor Wehrli stated that the description of the appointment process on the

City of Naperville Page 11 Printed on 4/8/2026
City Council Meeting Minutes - Final March 18, 2026

 City’s website can be somewhat confusing compared to the process actually
 followed for Boards and Commissions. He explained that the staff liaison meets
 with the Mayor to review applicants for open positions. When a vacancy occurs,
 the Mayor and staff liaison discuss the needs of the Board or Commission,
 including any gaps, desired skill sets, and attributes that would be beneficial.
 Applications are then reviewed, and a determination is made on which
 candidates to invite for interviews. Following the interviews, the Mayor and staff
 liaison confer to decide which applicant should move forward for Council
 review. He noted that the process is working well and continues to attract strong
 applicants, but the Councilman’s suggestions will be taken under consideration.
