E. PUBLIC FORUM:
 COMMENTS READ BY STAFF
 Lynn Gosselin
 I am a 22-year resident of Naperville and I’m writing to City Council to express my concerns
 about city officials requesting Naperville receiving an exemption from the state’s Stay at Home
 order in an effort to re-open businesses in Naperville. The COVID-19 pandemic took this
 nation by surprise. The country was unprepared with respect to PPE, ventilators, contact
 tracing, treatment, and a vaccine. The only weapon the country had available to staunch the
 virus’s advance was isolation. Up until this past weekend, residents of Naperville and Illinois
 were doing a great job at staying close to home, which we can see from cell phone data. That
 said, Illinois has not peaked with respect to daily cases. Lifting restrictions earlier than 14 days
 after the peak will prolong the spread. Some have argued that the virus and deaths are
 concentrated in nursing homes so restrictions should be lifted for everyone else. But to do that
 with confidence would require tools we don’t have: expansive testing to identify asymptomatic
 carriers and contact tracing so those who have been exposed can isolate to prevent the
 spread. Others argue that Naperville is somehow better positioned relative to our neighbors
 and should open before the state does. This ignores that the virus respects no boundary:
 state, county, city, nor age, gender, race. If Naperville re-opens before the Illinois Department of
 Public Health and Governor advise, residents and guests of Naperville will circulate the virus
 resulting in an increase in cases and deaths. I understand that the Stay at Home order is
 difficult socially, emotionally, and that the economic impact is felt far and wide. I work in the
 banking industry and have been volunteering outside of work hours to help my institution
 process PPP loans for small businesses and see this devastation daily. However, I believe
 that all of us, including our elected officials, have an obligation as members of our shared
 community to make this shared sacrifice and investment so that we flatten the curve and
 shorten the period of time needed to take these drastic measures. I believe that a more
 productive role for our local leaders is to participate on task forces, lobby for additional aid from
 the federal government, work with the Chamber of Commerce and other groups to promote
 creative solutions for our town’s businesses, etc. And I also ask all of you to exercise your
 leadership to encourage residents to follow the restrictions, such as wearing masks and
 maintaining social distance, especially when we have beautiful weather like this past
 weekend. We are all in this together and by making this sacrifice and investment, we will
 protect our community and position Naperville for a successful comeback.

 SPEAKER
 Allison Longenbaugh
 Asked if the mayor is supportive of adhering to governor’s order or accelerating the opening of
 the City.

 Chirico responded that municipalities must follow the governor’s order, but the municipalities
 can advocate for their own areas because individual data may be different than regional data.

5. Approve the award of RFP 19-041, City Council Chambers Audio Visual Upgrade,

 LaCloche explained the timing, funding, and overall project specifics. She said the upgrade is
 two years past due, that the message board system failed in 2018 and staff has been using a
 number of workarounds. She went on to explain significant issues with the podium, severed
 chords, and that projection quality is poor.

 Mayer explained that PEG fees would be an appropriate source for the purchase but use of
 those funds will need to be discussed with NCTV.

 Council discussed delaying the project, use of alternate technology tools for meeting, that the
 equipment is at end of life, the concern of only one vendor, and that the project can be
 completed while chambers is unoccupied.

 LaCloche explained the bid process, that staff solicited vendors across the country and used
 Granicus and NCTV to also find potential bidders. She said most companies are proficient in
 audio or visual, that NCTV was on the review team and put together a spec sheet for
 evaluation. She said that even with Zoom there is still a need to have an NCTV tech present at
 the meetings.

 COMMENTS READ BY STAFF
 Kenn Miller
 I plead for the City Council to postpone #20-510 Retail marijuana zoning and maps until after
 COVID-19 restrictions are removed allowing public meetings. This is a very controversial issue
 and the citizens have a right to an open in-person opportunity to address the Counsel on their
 opinions. A virtual meeting does not suffice.
 Thank you. Kenn Miller

 Charles Brown
 Most seniors do not have the wherewithal to participate in your “open sessions” and there is
 very little info if any on how to listen or participate in the meetings. We were shut out of the vote
 for the recent referendum vote. We were told to stay home and then to vote. Registration for
 mail in ballots is very difficult. You call the county, push three and sometimes the call returns to
 you. I spoke with one of the women there and they know it is a difficult system I finally got
 through and had an application for a mail in vote mailed to me. Then I returned it and received
 a ballot which I returned to them. It amazes me that well-meaning elected officials refuse to
 listen to the school districts, the police department, and the fire department who oppose the
 sale of recreational cannabis. I do not feel that some members of the council are open to
 using these available resources. I would appreciate it if you would read this into the records of
 your next meeting. Charles Brown still hopeful at 84.

 Kris Busche, Melissa Miscinski, Karen Messina, Kathy Mercado, Terri Nauman, Lori
 Hazen - OPPOSE
 I request the City Council vote to table this agenda item indefinitely as it is a very controversial
 issue plus the Coronavirus continues to limit public physical participation. This is not a
 mandatory service of the City so a future workshop would allow residents to learn and
 understand store locations and zoning proposals. The referendum outcome was very close,
 identifying is controversy, with approximately 47% against and 53% for marijuana stores. The
 March 2020, Presidential primary had approximately 25% voter turnout versus the 2016
 Presidential primary of approximately 54% voter turnout.

 Simon Liang - OPPOSE
 I request the City Council vote to table this agenda item indefinitely as it is very a controversial
 issue plus the Coronavirus continues to limit public physical participation. The City needs to be
 transparent and respect the normalcy of its constituents that support transparency. I request
 the City Council to vote to table this agenda item indefinitely as it is very controversial.

 Catherine Lavigne - I support tabling M.1 (20-510)

 Salve Messina
 Government bodies should not opportunistically take advantage of the public’s inability to
 attend large gatherings to make critical decisions affecting the public’s interest if those
 decisions can reasonably be postponed, as there is really no substitute for physical
 presence.” I request the City Council vote to table this agenda item indefinitely as it is very a
 controversial issue plus the Coronavirus continues to limit public physical participation. This
 matter can reasonably be postponed as it is not a core service of the City.

 Dolores Billote, James Full - OPPOSE
 I think government agencies need to be very careful not to unduly restrict the public’s ability to
 see what government is doing and, maybe more importantly, to participate in what the
 government’s doing. I request the City Council vote to table this agenda item indefinitely as it is
 very a controversial issue plus the Coronavirus continues to limit public physical participation.
 This matter can reasonably be postponed as it is not a core service of the City. Tabling is
 appropriate to safer times, as is a workshop.

City Council Meeting Minutes May 5, 2020


 Catherine Hanzelin, Bradford Miller
 With respect to item 20-510, I request the City Council vote to table this agenda item for now as
 it is a controversial issue and the Coronavirus continues to limit public physical participation.
 This matter can reasonably be postponed as it is not a core service of the City. Further, when it
 comes to controversial topics such as this one I would argue that people being physically
 present to present their case is important for many reasons. First, we as Americans are used
 to being able to advocate for or against something in person. The physical act of going in front
 of a governing body and trying to persuade them one way or another is normal and important to
 us. We are often passionate when we are speaking and I don’t think the same level of
 persuasion or passion comes through via zoom. Second, there is strength in physical
 numbers. As you know, when the community shows up to city council meetings in matching
 t-shirts or holding signs, that sends a message. That can’t happen on the same level with
 zoom. Third, I think there is a technology barrier for some people. If you tell a non-tech person
 that the city council meeting is going to be online via zoom, I think their first instinct is that it
 seems complicated, especially if they never heard of zoom. That will very likely keep some
 people away and we should want people to be involved in these kinds of topics. Finally, I am
 concerned that with a controversial topic like this one, I think a lot of people are going to think
 that the city council intentionally did this during a time of crisis to get it done without having to
 deal with residents opinions in person and that it going to look negative in my view. On another
 note, I appreciate everyone's efforts in keeping our city safe during this time and I hope
 everyone stays healthy.

 Joan Vitro - OPPOSE
 Transparency is the core of legality. Throughout any circumstance, the government must
 remain accountable to the people. This matter can reasonably be postponed as it is not a core
 service of the City.

 Michelle Hiller - OPPOSE
 I support tabling. M-1 (20-510). Do not move forward with this until the public can be fully
 involved.

 Rita Mathern - OPPOSE
 I believe local governments need to guarantee their citizens that they operate in an open and
 transparent way during their deliberations. So, I request City Council table this marijuana
 agenda item, M.1(20-510) be postponed for consideration until the public can safely attend in
 person. As it is not an urgent matter, it should be rescheduled to a later date and include a
 workshop.

 Paul Radzicki - OPPOSE
 I request the City Council to vote to table Agenda item: M.1 20-510 indefinitely. Decisions of this
 gravity should not be made in a virtual meeting environment. Citizens have the right to be heard
 IN PERSON by the Council. There is no urgency to decide this matter at this time. Deciding
 whether to increase the availability of a harmful intoxicant can wait; it's not an emergency. I, and
 I hope all Naperville voters, will be noting which Council members are pro-weed and vote
 accordingly when they are up for reelection. Paul Radzicki, 1444 Terrance Drive.

 Rose Hanson
 Table M.1 (20-510) until people can be physically present to discuss this controversial issue.
 Trying to do this while people are ordered to shelter in place is not in the best interest of this
 community.

 Keith Sheffer - OPPOSE
 If there is anything perfectly clear about the controversial topic of whether or not the city of
 Naperville should be encouraging the creation of marijuana stores promoting the sale and
 recreational use of marijuana is that the residents are deeply divided. The referendum vote
 took place while fears and concerns of public safety limited participation of some segments of
 our community. Many questions remain if the combination of political timing and the pandemic

City of Naperville Page 8 Printed on 5/21/2020
City Council Meeting Minutes May 5, 2020

 affected the results. One thing both sides of the topic can agree on is that the residents of this
 great city are deeply divided. For this reason, along with the current COVID pandemic in play,
 my concern is that proceeding with the agenda item M.1 20-510 for the upcoming council
 meeting will only deepen this division or our residents. As a resident of this community I do not
 see the “burning bridge” need to start the official process of developing a road map on “how to
 get there” before we have clarity on “where we want to go”. I respectively request that you think
 of the entire Naperville community - those that Opt in and those that Opt out - and table this
 topic until there is clear and open abilities to properly address this potential roadmap. We live
 in a democracy and as a local government; there is an obligation to allow the democratic
 process to be followed.

 Julie Kukla - OPPOSE
 Cannabis plans to be tabled indefinitely until covid is over. I am opposed to sales of cannabis
 in Naperville

 Kim Roth
 I request the City Council vote to table this agenda item indefinitely as it is very a controversial
 issue plus the Coronavirus continues to limit public physical participation.

 Joy Grainge - SUPPORT
 Like the majority of Naperville residents, I support an adult use cannabis store in our city. I
 encourage you to create clear direction for zoning a 21+ cannabis retail store. In April, Illinois
 sold over $35 million dollars of cannabis in the adult use market, an increase from February
 and March. Naperville will need the tax revenue cannabis can generate as we move forward
 through these troubling times. A cannabis retail outlet is an excellent business to add to the
 Naperville portfolio.

 SPEAKER
 Jennifer Taylor, Opt Out Naperville
 Spoke against taking action until in-person meetings can be held.

 Council discussed greater access to speak now since comments can be submitted and read
 by staff or residents can phone in to the meeting, the referendum reflects the residents'
 decision, that many questions need to be answered through the zoning process, and the
 appropriateness of continuing the discussion at a workshop or regular meeting.

 Krieger explained that the action item is requesting Council to make a decision on moving
 forward with a workshop or regular meeting and using an electronic meeting process (Zoom)
 or wait to meet in person.

 Council offered that the roadmap sidesteps the opt in/opt out question, assumes the City will
 opt in, and the appropriateness of determining the zoning parameters before an opt in/opt out
 decision.

 Krieger explained staff could poll the Council on major decision points that have been
 discussed in the past prior to any meeting.

 Council discussed logistics of an open house, past level of input and decorum, the
 appropriateness of having the public go through a process if the majority of Council are not

 going to change their vote, and that a vote should not be avoided because of the pandemic.

 DiSanto explained the requested action items and recommended Council not repeal the Opt
 out ordinance until zoning details have been agreed upon.

 A motion was made by Councilwoman Sullivan, seconded by Councilman
 Krummen, to direct staff to proceed with the roadmap that will be used to
 facilitate the creation of zoning regulations for adult-use cannabis facilities and
 schedule an electronic workshop for the City Council prior to the Planning Zoning
 Commission process.

 A motion in substitution was made by Councilman Hinterlong, seconded by
 Councilwoman Gustin, to direct staff to proceed with the roadmap that will be

 the following vote:

 Aye: 3- Gustin, Hinterlong, and Krummen

 Nay: 6- Chirico, Brodhead, Coyne, Kelly, Sullivan, and White
