SUBJECT: MANAGER'S REPORT
 BOARD MEETING OF MONDAY, AUGUST 19,2024

  A. Extension of Existing Agreement for Condominium, Commercial,
 Industrial, Institutional and IVIulti-family Solid Waste Services and Sinale-
 Family Recyclina Collection.
 The Village has three waste services agreements with Lakeshore Recycling
 Systems (LRS). They include condominium waste and recycling services; the
 Commercial Waste Hauling Franchise Agreement, which provides services to
 the commercial, industrial, institutional and multi-family community; and the
 single-family recycling collection services agreement.

 In analyzing the marketplace, economic conditions, and the potential for
 regulatory and operational change, the Village staff has engaged in protracted
 discussions with the incumbent service provider, staff from the Solid Waste
 Agency of Northern Cook County (SWANCC), and neighboring partners. As a
 result of our assessment of the marketplace and competitive environment, the
 Village's best interests were served by negotiation of extensions to the existing
 service agreements with the existing provider, LRS, Staff has engaged in
 extensive discussions with LRS to achieve the best possible agreements and
 rates for all services provided.

 The condominium services agreement, the cost of which directly impacts the
 Village's annual operating budget, will see cost escalation based only upon
 reasonable and capped Consumer Price Index (CPI) cost increases. Second,
 the Commercial Franchise is based upon a matrix of charges, which are paid
 directly by customers to the provider. Skokie's rates have been sub-market for
 some time. With the extension, rates will return to more market-rate pricing,
 though at levels that will be superior to that of many of our surrounding
 communities, particularly for our smaller and more vulnerable customers. Lastly,
 the single-family recycling agreement will see an initial two-tiered initial rate
 increase, followed by CPI escalation only. Of note, during the course of these
 rate discussions, LRS has not had a rate increase for this agreement since June
 of 2022. I would add that as part of this agreement, the Village has the right to
 take on portions of the recycling collection task should it choose to do so, with

621204
 Return to Agenda




 an understanding agreed to as to how such a change could take piace and
 credits received.

 I concur with staff's recommendation and respectfully request Mayor and Board
 approval of the renewal of the three contracts with Lakeshore for Condominium
 Waste and Recycling Services, Commercial, Industrial, institutional and Multi-
 Famiiy Solid Waste Services (Commercial Franchise) and Single-Famiiy
 "Curbside" Residential Weekiy Recycling Coiiection.

 B. Upgrade in Traffic Control from Yield Sign to Two-Way Stop Sign Control -
 Central Park Avenue/Greenwood Street and Lake Street/Forestview Road
 Intersections.
 In order to assess safety, traffic controls were reviewed by Engineering staff at
 the intersections of Central Park Avenue/Greenwood Street and Lake
 Street/Forestview Road. These intersections are in a residential area and
 controlled with yield signs. After a review of crash history, it was determined
 that an upgrade to two-way stop sign controls will enhance safety and add to
 traffic calming in the area. I concur with the Traffic Engineering Division and
 respectfully request Mayor and Board approval to authorize Corporation
 Counsel to draft the enabling Ordinance.

  C. Green Infrastructure Grant - Joint Agreement witji_ IVIetroeoljtan Water
 Reclamation District of Greater Chicago.
 The Village of Skokie received grant funding from the Metropolitan Water
 Reclamation District of Greater Chicago (MWRDGC) to aid in the construction of
 green infrastructure. Three alleys were selected to be reconstructed as
 permeabfe alleys. This work will improve drainage of storm water as weli as
 reduce the fiow of storm water into the combined sewers. The total cost of the
 project is $1,039,976.80 and the grant amount is $347,000. At this time, the
 execution of a grant agreement with the MWRDGC is necessary in order to
 proceed. ! concur with staff's recommendation and respectfully request Mayor
 and Board approval of the resolution authorizing the execution of this agreement
 with the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago

  D. Villaae of Skokie Green Alley Proflram ~ Martam Construction. Elgin,
 Illinois-$1.039.976.80.
 The Village pians to utilize grant funds from the Metropolitan Water Reclamation
 District of Greater Chicago (MWRDGC) aiong with Village funds for construction
 of identified permeabfe alleys. The three alleys to be constructed currently are
 either paved with ongoing drainage issues or have an aggregate surface that
 requires extensive maintenance from Public Works. The subject alleys to be
 reconstructed are as follows: 5100 Suffieid Court-Greenwood Street, 9000
 Bronx-Lavergne Avenues and 9300 Kenton-Koimar Avenues.


 There are sustainabiiity benefits of these alleys. First, they capture and contain
 stormwater and return it to the water table versus conveying It to the sewer
 system or to overiand mnoff (backyard). Cumuiativeiy, the stone base of all
 three proposed alleys will provide almost 158,000 gaiions of stormwater storage


621204

 each time it rains. Second, a green alley has a longer life span and requires less
 annual maintenance than a gravel alley which reduces greenhouse gases.

 Five bids were received, and it is recommended the Village utilize the services
 of Martam Construction, a firm the Village has worked with in the past with
 satisfactory results. I concur with staff’s recommendation and respectfully
 request Mayor and Board approval to enter into a contract Martam Construction
 in the amount not to exceed $1,039,976.80.

* E. Oakton Street Multi-Use Path Additional Design Services.
 The Village of Skokie has been working with Niles and Morton Grove to improve
 pedestrian access along Oakton Street connecting the three communities.
 Specifically, a multi-use path along the south side of Oakton Street from Gross
 Point Road in Skokie to west of Caldwell Avenue in Niles. The project was split
 into three stages due to the coordination required to construct the path over a
 railroad crossing and the need for an easement over adjacent private property.
 The first stage of path construction is substantially complete.

 The Illinois Department of Transportation required additional survey, analysis and
 design at the intersection of Oakton Street and Caldwell Avenue. As the project
 moved forward, it became apparent a connection to the forest preserve would be
 beneficial for the users of the multi-use path. This all requires additional design
 services beyond the original scope. The additional design services total
 $152,498.74. Per the Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA), the costs are to be
 spilt equally among the Villages subject to an executed written amendment.
 Skokie’s share is $50,832.91.

 Corporation Counsel has reviewed and concurs with content in the amended IGA
 and has prepared the enabling Resolution. I approve of the execution of this IGA
 and respectfully request the approval by the Mayor and the Board.

 conference bids this contract once every three years and reserves the right to
 extend the contract for up to three additional one-year terms upon mutual
 agreement on a negotiated basis. The lowest responsive and responsible bidder
 was Superior Road Striping. I concur with staff’s recommendation and
 respectfully request Mayor and Board approval of a contract in the amount not to
 exceed $99,280.19 to be awarded to Superior Road Striping.

* G. Urban SDK Traffic Management Software – Jacksonville, Florida - $49,000.
 Urban SDK is a traffic management software that provides speed data in real

Subject: AGENDA ITEM - August 19, 2024 Village Board Meeting
 Stop Sign Upgrades at Two-Way Yield Controlled Intersections
 Central Park Avenue/Greenwood Street
 Lake Street/Forestview Road



The Engineering Division is frequently contacted to investigate intersections. Staff has reviewed the traffic control at the Intersections
of Central Park Avenue/Greenwood Street and Lake Street/Forestview Road. Data was gathered at and near the intersections. These
intersections are situated in residential areas that follow the typical Village alternating pattern of traffic control. The intersections are
now controlled with yield signs. Crash history was reviewed at these two intersections. With the completion of the study it is the
recommendation of the Skokie Engineering Division that the intersections of Central Park/Greenwood Street and Lake Street/Forestview
Road be upgraded to a two-way stop-controfled intersection.


Our main goal in traffic is to improve safety for alt users of the road. To establish any controls, the guidelines in the Manual on Uniform
Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) were followed. Staff has concerns about installing restrictive controls that do not meet the MUTCD
guidelines. Stop signs are frequently violated if unwarranted, some drivers become careless about stopping at them and this can be
especially dangerous for pedestrians and bicyclists who may have a false sense of safety from the presence of a stop sign. Some of the
factors considered for installation of a two-way stop sign are crash experience, sight distance, and road classification. Staff initiated the
study in response to concerns of a collision that occurred m April and a number of reported near misses. In the past the village has
upgraded two-way yield-controiled intersections to two-way stop control with positive results.


A mix of Yield sign control and Stop sign control exists presently along the subject streets. These streets have a similar street width.
The existing alternating pattern of two-way control along Greenwood Street and Lake Street is a safety measure; it helps define a
residential area and adds to traffic calming. An upgrade of the existing Yield control to a two-way Stop sign type of control will
improve the safety characteristics of this residential area, with the existing alternate placement and defined traffic control pattern in
this area.


The Engineering Division recommends that the Yield signs be upgraded to Stop Signs at the following intersections:

 Number Intersection Name Approach Control
 1 Central Park Avenue and Greenwood Northbound, Southbound
 Street
 2 Lake Street and Forestview Rd Westbound, Eastbound


This change, due to £he above-mentioned reasons, will make a positive impact to these areas. Attached are drawings depicting the
location of the subject intersections and the proposed signs. Please present these matters before the Mayor and Board of Trustees at the
August 19, 2024, Village Board Meeting for their review, approval and authorization to pass the appropriate enabling ordinance.

 Village of Skokie-Green Infrastructure Grant
 Joint Agreement with Metropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago

The Village has received grant funding to help with the construction of Green Infrastructure. The grant is
through the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago (MWRDGC). An agreement is
now required with the MWRDGC. The Village has budgeted for the construction costs remaining after
the grant funding is applied in the current Capital Improvement Plan.

This work consists of upgrading three gravel alleys to the Village’s green alley standard. The three alleys
were selected because they require above average maintenance efforts due to drainage issues and heavy
traffic. These alleys will be reconstructed as permeable alleys. This will improve the drainage of storm
water in the alley and at the same time reduce the flow of the storm water into the combined sewers.

The total construction cost for this project is $1,039,976.80 and the grant amount is for $347,000. The
construction will occur this fall. The Village now needs to execute the attached grant agreement with the
MWRDGC. I have reviewed the attached agreement with Corporation Counsel.

I ask that you please present this recommendation to the Mayor and Board of Trustees for review and
approval at the August 19, 2024 regularly scheduled meeting:

 1. Resolution authorizing the Village Manager to execute the subject Agreement.

Please contact me if there are any questions.

Memorandum

Engineering Division

To: John T. Lockerby, Village Manager

From: ______________________________________
 Russ Rietveld, Director of Engineering

Date: August 9, 2024

Subject: Agenda Item – August 19, 2024
 Oakton Street Multi-Use Path Additional Design Services

The Village has been working with the neighboring communities of Niles and Morton Grove to
improve pedestrian access along Oakton Street connecting the three communities. The general
scope of work for this project is a multi-use path along the south side of Oakton Street from Gross
Point Road in Skokie to Caldwell Avenue in Niles. The first stage of path construction is
substantially complete.

In 2019, the Villages executed an Intergovernmental Agreement(IGA) to govern their shared
obligations during design of the project. The original design contract was between the Village of
Morton Grove and Christopher Burke Engineering in the amount of $164,026.41. The Villages
obtained a $90,000 grant from Cook County to offset some of these costs. Per the IGA, the
remaining balance was split equally between the Villages and the original design contract has been
fully expended.

After design commenced the project was split into three stages due to the coordination required to
construct the path over a railroad crossing and the need for an easement over adjacent private
property. The Illinois Department of Transportation also required additional survey, analysis and
design at the intersection of Oakton Street and Caldwell Avenue. Finally, as the design moved
forward it became apparent a connection to the forest preserve would be beneficial for the users of
the multi-use path. This all requires additional design services beyond the original scope.

The additional design services total $152,498.74. Per the IGA, the costs are to be split equally
among the Villages subject to an executed written amendment. The Village’s share of the
additional design services is $50,832.91 and $8,353.91 has already been paid. The FY25 budget
contains money to cover the remaining $42,479.

As a result, I recommend that the Village execute the Resolution approving the written amendment
to the IGA. The required Resolution has been prepared by Corporation Counsel. Please present
this recommendation for approval to the Mayor and Board of Trustees at the August 19, 2024
regularly scheduled meeting.

 Exhibit 1



 DRAFT — CHAPTER 6 - HOUSING
 In May of 2023, the Skokie Village Board approved a Resolution establishing a Housing
 Sub-Commtttee of She Plan Commission to study, review, discuss and provide
 recommendations concerning the Housing Chapter of the Comprehensive Plan. The
 members of the Housing-Sub Committee were appointed En August of 2023 with the
 goal of drafting an updated Housing Chapter that reflects an updated vision toward the
 future of housing En Skokie. After six months of meetings and cotlaboration with the
 community, the Sub-Committee has drafted the foilowing document, emphasizing
 several important components toward the goals of prospective housing in Skokie.

 Housing is an essential community component as wefl as a life necessity. The Village
 aspires to provide a variety of housing types for all demographics and stages of life that
 is both inclush/e and accessible to all who want to live in Skokie. Increasingly, people
 are seeking housing that can accommodate a range of needs. This indades:


 * Residents who seek housing for alt stages of life - firsl-tEme owners/renters,
 famiEEes, and accessible housing to accommodate older adufts and empty
 nesters;
 • New residents who are welcomed lo Skokie from more urban spaces or new
 Immigrants coming to the United States for the first time ~ Skokle is recognized
 as being proximate to the City of Chicaqo while matntaininq desirable
 suburban amenities and services like K-12 schools, parks, and public facilities.
 * Residents who want housing that reflect lifestyle choices seek housinp that can
 be rebabbed or adjusted to suit particuiar living arrangements (e.§. work-from-
 home arrangements, mutti-generation a I housing, or sustainabiiity features that
 reduce one's carbon footprint).


 Skokie residents want to live in s suburban community with strong educational
 resources, community amenities, access to transportation options, and above ail seek
 high quality housing.

 This chapter of the Comprehensive Plan will include themes and ideas that village
 residents and stakehokters found to be the most essential for the development of new
 housing. These themes include kieas of altainabiiity, JnclusMty, afford ability, and
 diversity, which signal the changing needs of Skokie residents. This chapter wif)
 examine the future of housing En Skokie; wfiat type and how much housing we and our
 nelahbors are developing; and other housing activities ouliined in the 2020-2025
 Consolidated Plan for Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funding and the
 Environmental Sustainability Plan (2022).

 EXISTING HOUSING CONDITIONS

 DRAFT — CHAPTER 6 . HOUSING

 Skokle's current housing stock Includes single-famlly homes and muffi-fsmlly buildings,
 both owner- and renter-occupled. It also Includes housing specifically supporting older
 adults, persons Eiving with disabilities, congregate living facilities (group homes), and
 assisted-living facilities.


 The majority of homes in Skokie were constructed between 1940 to 1969 during the
 postwar boom that occurred In suburban areas across the country (Source: CMAP
 Snapshot 2023). As a resuSt, approximately 68% of the housing stock in Skokie Is
 characterized as being from a period that reflected housing for working famlltes earnirK
 moderate and middle Incomes at that time. To meet this demand, the housing was
 constfucled using both simifar building materials as well as similar design styles
 resulting in several communities that cEosely resemble each other (e.g. low-nse brick
 housing). More recent housing developments make up 16% of Skokie housing stock,
 which is often designed as Ml development and Is costlier to construct. Much of
 SkokEe's older housing stock, while attractive to buyers, has a challenge of meeting the
 needs of current market demands. Residents Increasingly want more living space for
 gathering En outside areas, dedicated home office spaces, rooms that are on single
 Eevels of living to accommodate current or future accessibility needs, and other spaces
 that support high-quality living experiences. Approximately 61% of the housing stock In
 Skokle is slnQle-famifv homes (Source: ACS five-year estimates 2017-2021); and there
 Is a growing interest for other housing options, such as townhomes, multl-family homes,
 and even accessory dwelling units (ADUs), that offer other attainable housing optfons to
 meet the needs of current and future Skokle residents.


 Vision Statement


 The Vsfiage to provide a diverse range of housing that addresses the
 current housing and plans for a!f future housing demand in Skokie.


 This vision is accomplished through four (4) themes:


 H1 Community Enhancement - Foster the creation of public spaces that
 support a greater sense of community In Skokle's neighborhoods in and
 around resldentia! areas. This encourages walkabillty, pedestrian-oriented
 development and sustainable practices. Promote accessibility In
 neighborhoods by guiding deveiopments that include sidewalks, bike lanes,
 and safe crosswalks for comfortable and pedestrian-friendly environments.

 H2 Promote Housing Type Flexibility - Provide a flexible housing policy that
 allows for a greater mix of housing development that is more accessible,




 Page 4 of 16

 DRAFT — CHAPTER 6 . HOUSING

 attainabte for a range of household incomes, and encourages sustainable
 practices- Promote a variety of housing types and sizes within vEHage
 constraints to meet the housing demand of growing and changing population
 demographics.

 H3 Reasonable Standards - Provide housing policy that allows for a range of
 housing development that caters to the current needs of families In Skokie.
 Consider the needs of current Skokie homeowners and promote policy that
 protects and assists longtime residents and homeowners.

 Reinvest and Retain - Encourage the development and redevelopment of a
 variety of housing types through housing policy and development aclivitles.
 Support adaptive reuse and modification to existing housing stock.




 HI - Community Enhancement


 Foster the creation ofpubfic spaces that support a greater sense of community in
 Skokie's neighborhoods in and around residential areas. This encourages waSkabilsty,
 pedestnan-onented development and susta'tnabfe practices. Promote accessibility in
 neighborhoods by guiding developments that indude sidewalks, bike fanes, and safe
 crosswalks for comfortable and pedestnan-fnendSy environments.

 Community enhancement seeks to create attractive neighborhoods in all parts of
 Skokie. In the Village's previous version of this Chapter, this idea was expressed
 through the Idea of a 'location" theme - the idea of housing being located In areas
 where people can benefit from public amenities like transportation, open space,
 schools, services, and housing that supports the health and well-being of Indivkluals.
 Noted in the discussions for the development of this Chapter is the kJea of establishing
 stronger nelahborhood identlttes, as Is evident In Salem Viliage and Timber Rldqe.
 Other areas of Skokie present opportunities to buifd identity.


 Encouraging the creation of neEghborftood Edentlty through new investment in areas
 surroundina new development or investina In the spaces within existing net
 creates stronger neighborhoods, greater positive feelings about one's community, and
 establishes more places people want to live. This can be realized through investment in
 public and private green spaces and requiring that projects meet high standards of
 design and utilize quality materiats.


 Melghborhood identity and accessibiiity. SkokEe reskients are proud of their
 community character and ptace a high value toward creating a "sense of place" in their

 DRAFT — CHAPTER 6 - HOUSING
 neighborhoods. A sense of place can exist when one feels like a part of their community
 and that their community is unique and has an identity. When neighborhoods are
 walkable and accessible to parks and other social spaces, rl creates opportunities to sit
 and relax, eat, socialize, and shop. What brings character to Skokie neighborhoods may
 differ from one resident to the next; however, neighborhood character Includes a sense
 of community and neighborhood identity that provides options for residents of al! ages,
 abilities, and socloecononnic levels. OveraSI, these public spaces should strengthen the
 connections between people and the spaces they use or five in.


 Improve design standards for new construction and significant remodeling.
 of Skokie's housing was developed during a time of rapid suburbanizalion and
 construclion, utilizing common building materials and design. Looking into the future,
 Improving design standards and zoning codes to promote more flexlbiiity and unique
 expressions of architecture diversity wilt help create more unique housing throughout
 Skokte as properties experience reinvestment. The utHization ofform-based code1 may
 also help provide better guidance to create a linked zoning and design standard to
 ensure the most attractive projects are advanced to construction.


 H2 - Promote Housing Type Flextbilitv
 Provide a flexible housing policy that allows for a greater msx of housing development
 that is more accessible, attalnaUe for a range of household incomes, and encourages
 sustainabfe practices. Promote a vanety of housing types and sszes withtn wHsge
 constramts to meet the housing demand of growing and changing population
 demographics.

 Provide a mix of housing options that are accessible and attainable. Although the
 population of Skokie has remained relatlveiy constant the demands of the population
 have changed In terms of what type of housing is desired. Skokie is unique In that in
 addition to a ranae of sinote-famdv homes and condos, the bousina stock also contains
 a number of small multi-famify homes, such as 2- or 3-flats and townhomes. By
 investing In the existing, aging housing stock, residents can remain in place and thrive
 in Skokle. When rt comes to new housing, it is important to provide a mix of housing
 options to accommodate the range of needs of Skokie's community. This Includes
 attainable housing for first-time renters/homeowners, families of all sizes, older aduEts,
 empty nesters, and those who would benefit from accessible units.


 Allow for flexibility for new development. Flexibility can also be applied to existing
 development within the village. By allowing for more accommodating housing policies

 relationship within the public realm , instead of the emphasis on land use as use<f in traditional zoning

 and codes, it helps Skokie to grow in a way that encompasses the needs of the
 community. For example, adaptive reuse practices could allow a former comnnerclat or
 office building to be converted into a greater needed use, such as mixed-use or
 residentlai units. More creative development may be encouraged by allowing for more
 uses in certain zoning categories. SkoRie's existing housing stock Is a valuable asset to
 the communrty; however, many families may feet as though they need more space to
 work from home or accommodate Iheir qrowina family. Bv providinp fiexlble
 development options for homeowners in these districts, residents can further invest En
 Iheir home and continue to stay in Skokle and age in place. Standards should promote
 and Incentivize investment En the existing housing and building stock.


 Adaptive Reuse. There Is limited opportunity for redeveiopment because Skokle
 contains no undeveloped land. One method that allows developers Eo breathe fife into
 unused buiidtngs or spaces is called adaptive reuse. Adaptive reuse, or building reuse,
 refers to the repurposing of an existing structure for a new use, converting it into
 something useful for the surrounding area. Commercial retail, for example, has
 dramatically changed since the time when many shopping centers were built. By
 allowing the conversion of vacant commercial properties into a higher needed use, such
 as housing, the community benefits from the revltalization. Some advantages that
 adaptive reuse has over brand-new development is that they often have lower
 construction costs, quicker construction tlmelines, and are popular with communities
 interested in preserving unique or Important landmarks. By finding opportunities for
 adaptive reuse and keeping alignment with other approved plans, sections of SkokEe
 could be re-invented with new opportunities.


 Zoning Code updates. Along with the Housing Chapter Update, existing portions of the
 Zoning and Building code wiiE be reviewed, as it is possible that there are secttons In the
 code that inhibit or deter housing development In areas where housing may be
 appropriate. This wltl serve to allow more housing options In areas that provide robust
 public transportation options and have the potential to create waEkable communities
 within business and mixed-use districts. Reviewing and making changes to the Zoning
 and Building code allows the opportunity for a mix of housing types, like Accessory
 Dwelling Units (ADUs).

 H-3 Reasonable Standards
 Provide housing poiicy that aUows for a range of housing development that caters to the
 current needs of famshes in Skokse. Consider the needs of current Skokse homeowners
 and promote poiscy that protects and assists iongtsme residents and homeowners.

 Provide transparent guidetlnes and standards to existing homeowners. The at
 to create a home that Is customized for households of all sizes and needs is somethl

 that residents have voiced as of high importance. The Village can partner
 homeowners to support them with personalizing their homes to fit their needs- This
 includes:


 • Ensuring that sustainable and high-quality devefopments are built
 * Fostering a transparent and easy process to modify homes
 * Upholding Skokie's enforcement of Fair Housing. Skokie's Commrtment to
 Fair Housing began in 1967 with the establishment of a Fair Housing
 Ordinance, which stated that all persons shall be assured full and equal
 opportunities to obtain fair and adequate housing for themselves and their
 families within the village without discnminafbn.


 Consider sustainable and resilient policies and standards. Extreme weather and
 climate change are Increasingly a more common experience In Skokse. Ensuring that
 the village's housing Is positioned to adapt to more sustainable and resilient practices
 (e.g. utilization of native plantings Instead of turf. making homes solar ready, and other
 sustainable measures).


 H4- Reinvest and Retain
 Encourage the deveiopment and redeve!opment of a vanety of housing types through
 housing poHcy and devefopment actsvfties. Support adaptive reuse and modsfscation to
 existing housing stock. Support of new housing devefopments should pnontfze design
 mtegratfon with surrounding neighborhoods at both scale, building bulk, matenafs, and
 other aesthetics. New developments should bring greater housing diversity to
 nefghboi floods.

 Building for today's housing needs. Neighborhood character can exist at an
 IndivlduaE home tevel, creating a sense of comfort and accommodation for all residents.
 SkokEe has a variegated housing stock and therefore community and neighborhood
 character should be able to reflect the needs of residents. Much of Skokle's housing
 stock may have been built at a time when smaller homes were more common, creating
 barriers for larger or multigenerationa! households who need more space. Creating
 options for internal or external accessory dwetllng units (ADUs) or other custom
 modifications could accommodate the needs of residents and allow them to age In pEace
 and remain In Skokle.


 There is a strong desire for residents' homes to meet or exceed their expectations on
 lifestyle and family needs, in hopes of creating a long-lasting home. When building new
 housing, one tactic helpful for all households is incorporating Universal Design
 standards. The term Universal Design refers to design that's usable by alt people, to the
 greatest extent possible, without She need for adaptation or specialized design.

 DRAFT — CHAPTER 6 - HOUSING
 Examples of these desian standards inciude better liahtlna, wider doonA/ays, and
 hallways that are more accessible utilizing level thresholds. By building homes designed
 for al! people, we ensure they are functional for people with any type of impairment of
 the body or mind white ensurlnq that the deslcin Is useful for everyone. Buildlnci homes
 and Iftvestlng In a community for the future also should include hlgh-qualtty sustalnable
 burlding practices and high-quaitty standards so that the home is long-lasting.


 Residents who want to age in place near or with their families may need homes that are
 larger or have internal or external accessory dwelling units to accommodate these
 changing life phases. SkokEe is a culluratly diverse communtly, which creates a need for
 different styles of households that may want to five together under one roof or nearby.
 The abitlly to reasonabty enhance one's home Is an important topic that community
 members have expressed, allowing households to create a unique and accommodating
 living experience In Skokte.


 CONCLUSION:
 There are several aspects that make Skokie a desirable place to call home. As the
 Village of SRokie continues to be a growing and diverse community, the need for
 adaptable, attainable, and varied housing has become more and more Important. While
 community members find themselves residing in homes buift in the 1950s and 1960s,
 they also desire to make Investments En their homes today. The future of housing In
 Skokie wil! need to be flexible to accommodate community needs for households of all
 sizes and income levels.


 Looking forward, Skokie Is committed to accommodating Its ever-evolving population
 and refnaining In tune with the future of housing. This means staying true to r£s
 commitments from the past while also understanding current needs and desires to
 ensure a viable community inEo the future.

 CHAPTER 6 - HOUSING
 Housing is a place where people live. It includes detached single family homes,
 attached single family homes (townhouses), and mutofamily buildings, whether owner-
 or renter-occupied. It can also include housing for the elderly and disabled/ congregate
 living facilities (group homes), and assisted-living facilities.
 Because almost eveiy bit of land in Skokie has been developed at least once, we need
 to wisely consider how and where we live. This chapter will examine how housing fits
 into the direction we set for the Village in Chapter 4, what type and how much housing
 we and our neighbors are developing, and other housing activities outlined in the 2005-
 2009 Consolidated Plan for Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funding.


 HOUSING AND ITS RELATIONSHIP TO OUR DIRECTION
 In Chapter 4, we set the direction for housing. What we will do in this chapter is take
 those ideas and change them into more detailed housing policies. The policies will
 guide future land use and zoning decisions and set the framework to turn our direction
 into reality. The broad concepts directing our planning are at the beginning of each
 section and are labeled HI/ H2, etc. and are then described in greater detail. We will
 look at each of those housing directions one at a time.


 Accessibility
 Housing accessibility is simply the degree in which housing should be available to
 different people needing shelter. Rising housing prices have made us begin to think
 about who can afford different kinds of housing. We obviously cannot provide housing
 for all the millions of people in Chicagoland, but the community survey data we
 collected when developing our direction in Chapter 4, recent state laws involving
 affordability, fair housing laws/ and good land use planning provides us some guidance
 to develop good accessibility policies.



 Accessibility - Because lack of accessible housing impacts employers who
 need access to entry level employees/ public sector employees who are
 unable to live in the communities they serve, parents and families who

 HI families, and young people who struggle to find homes that they can afford,
 spend more time commuting to employment/ and seniors, single-parent


 we will be conscientious of these impacts when making land use decisions
 and policies and work to maintain/ and when appropriate enhance, the
 amount of housing accessible to these groups in the Village.

  1. Housing, beyond Its usual function as shelter/ is also a function of employment and
 economic development. If employers cannot find a workforce willing to work at a
 particular Eocatlon for a certain wage, they have to increase wages to lure potential
 employees, driving up labor costs and decreasing profits. Therefore, companies
 locate in areas that have a labor pool with adequate work skills willing £o work for
 them at a cost that allows the business to make a reasonable profit. Since most
 households spend the targest portion of their paycheck on housing/ the more
 expensive the mortgage or rental cost, the more money people need for housing. If
 cost accessible housing Is too far away/ then a lot of time and cost is spent getting
 to and from work/ adding to the cost of labor. The bottom line ... If ft takes too Eong
 to qet there and the pay is not hiah enouQh then many people wont be wllllnQ bo
 work there, However, tess time spent traveling or lower mortgage or rent expenses
 may make people consider a job for a little less pay, since they need a little less
 money to be just as economically well-off.

 2. You may ask/ "Are the planners arguing for people to get paid less?" Not a£ all/ but
 we understand a basic conflict in economic needs. Many people wan£ to make high
 wages, but want to spend as little as possible for goods and services. Paying less
 for retail goods and services usually means lower wages for employees making and
 selling those products. We like our discount clothmg and housewares stores, the
 sales at upper-end retailers, the convenience of the 24-hour grocery store or the
 drive-through bank, and getting served at a restaurant with everything being taken
 away and deaned-up for us at the end of the meal ... and we want it all close to our
 homes or workplaces. Our time is valuable/ after al!. Where do these sales clerks/
 middle managers/ stockers, cashiers, waiters live? Where will they !ive if housing
 costs keep rising faster than wages? How much are you wiHlng to pay for that
 dress, haircut, dinner out/ movie^ or head of lettuce? There needs to be a balance.

 3. People who have less skills or experience usually are paid less than those with more
 skills and experience, Even doctors/ computer programmers/ accountants/ and PhDs
 start out as interns^ assistants, or clerks ~ and with Eo£s of college debt^ too. These
 employees are the llfebtood of 21 century companies and the workers that will be
 trained and sustain the economy as more and more baby boomers retire. A portion
 of the Village's housing needs to be accessible to entry-level professionals and
 young singles and families just starting out, too.

 4. There is another tiling people don/t want to pay a lot for - taxesl But/ you know,
 taxes pay forjobs^ too ,,. jobs like teachers, police officers/ emergency workers^
 clinic nurses/ garbage haulers, sewage treatment plant technEdans/ librarians/ and
 many others. Many local government employees have b^en asked (usually by a

 complaining resident), "Do you ilve here?" It seems to be important to these
 residents that the people providing local government services are local themselves.
 But can these employees afford to live here?
 5. There are many people who have lived In Skokle a very long time, some even all
 their lives. Many of these people want to continue to live in Skokie for many more
 years. Some grew up here, left/ and now want to return, and others whose children
 may have grow up and left/ want to stay in Skokie. There is also a broad spectrum
 of households beyond the nuclear family of a married couple with children, too:
 single parents and one-income famities/ younger singtes and new two-lncome
 families, aging seniors, and large or muttigenerattonat famitles. Accessibility also
 means having the right kind of housing for different kinds of households. What kind
 of housing do these households want? Are we providing it?
 6. As a policy, the Village will take these factors into consideration when making
 decisions about uses that involve housing. The Village Is also committed to keeping
 housing accessible and/ when we can/ improve upon it.

 Here is an Interesting exercise. Table 6.1 shows the average home value in Skokle
 from July 2002 to June 2003 (2003) adjusted for Chicago area inflation for different
 years. Think back to the year you moved to Skokie. How much money did you make
 and how much housing could you afford? Would you and your family have been able to
 afford to move here at toda/s inflation adjusted prices? How accessible would housing
 have been for someone like you when you moved to Skokle If you had to move here

 Choice

 Housing choice is about the diversity of housing available. Choice is not just about
 price. It is about the physical forms of buildings and how they are arranged. It is
 about different groups of people wanting different types of housing and whether or not
 that housing is available.



 Choice - With increasing housing costs, growing diversity in age and
 income/ and lifestyle changes that impact our housing needs, we will provide
 and enhance choice in terms of style, structure/ and price so that local and
 regional demand for housing can be met.




 Understanding Choice



 1, Style In housing is a broad concept that we will limit to the way housing looks in
 form and appearance. People like different styles of housing/ and to maintain a
 housing stock that appeals broadly to many different tastes, we should encourage a
 mix of housing styles that reflects the market demand for housing. Limiting the
 style of homes will force some buyers into other housing markets, reduce the
 demand for Skokie housing, and may limit the future housing values.

 2. Structure refers to the actual type of building. There are detached single family
 units typically referred to as "houses" and attached single family houses like
 duplexes and townhomes that are attached side by side. There are also all types of
 multifamily units that are also attached to one another above, below, or both.
 Different people value different aspects of different structural arrangements of
 housing - the levels of maintenance/ noise/ privacy, energy efficiency, and price are
 just a few. Having a broad range of building types increases the appeal of Skokie
 housing to a broader range of buyers and allows current Skokie residents the option
 to stay in Skokie as their housing needs and values change throughout their lives. A
 private yard may be a value to an avid gardener or a family with children but a
 maintenance burden to an older person or a family with a busy lifestyte.

 3, Just as housing tastes and preferences change at different stages of people's lives,
 so do their economic situations and their desire to use a certain amount of housing.
 Price goes beyond affordability and includes personal preference. Some may want
 to purchase more housing with either more space or a higher level of amenities and
 spend less on other things, such as health care, transportation/ or entertainment.
 Others may want to purchase less housing with a lower level of amenities and spend
 more on other things. Housing should be available at different price levels in order
 to allow people to choose the amount of housing they might want to purchase.

 Location

 We have looked at our ability to get housing and what housing we have to choose
 from. Now we will discuss where to locate it. As land becomes available for
 redevelopment/ we need some basic guidelines about whether housing might be an
 appropriate reuse at that location.



 Location - Since more people should benefit from public goods such as
 transportation/ open space/ recreation, employment/ schools and services
 and less people should be impacted by negative externalities such as noise
 and odors, we will seek to locate more housing near public goods and less
 housing near negative externalities.




 Understanding Location



 1. With an almost fully developed community, the decision to locate housing at a
 particular location should be, first, "Is this the right place for people to live?'/ and/
 second, "How many people should live here?"

 2. More housing should be located near more transportation - train stations/ interstate
 highway interchanges/ and major roads. Higher intensity uses should be located at
 these locations and less intense uses should be located away from these uses. It
 might be surprising, but the reason for this is only partly about traffic. Multifamily
 uses produce less car trips per unit than detached single family and most
 commerciat uses. It is also about time spent traveling. It is better to provide the
 time savings and access to more people rather than less people.

 3. The same concept applies to recreation, open space, employment, and services.
 Again/ it is more reasonable to place more people next to the park/ school, or
 grocery store and not reserve close proximity to those places for a few. Having
 more people closer to these places also has a much greater impact on reducing the
 time cars are on the road and reduces total traffic. Some people might not even get
 into a car at all to make the trip!
 4. Negative externalities are things that are produced by an activity that have a
 negative impact on something else. Noise/ pollution, traffic, and odors might be
 negative externalities that affect residentiat uses. Multifamily housing should NEVER
 be a "buffer" between a negative externality and something else ... like detached
 single family houses. If housing is to be located next to a negative externality that
 is not balanced by a positive benefit, isn't it a better land use policy to expose less
 people (in houses) to the negative externality rather than more people (in a
 condominium or apartment)? This means more people by the train station or

VOSDOCS-#620906-v1-Ordinance_Comprehensive_Plan_Chapter_6_Housing
 Return to top of B




 interchange/ and less people by the train track or highway without the train station
 or interchange.

 5. One last thing ... many of the location decisions for new housing are not necessarily
 easy to determine. Maybe the site has good employment access but is also in a
 high traffic area/ or the site is adjacent to a park or school but near occasional odors
 from a sewage treatment plant. In these circumstances, the positives and negative
 have to be weighed accordingly.
  To sum it up simply ... if a change is to occur, put more housing by the good things/
 less housing by the bad things.


  Chanqejn Development Patterns

  As time passes, Skokie's housing ages, employment moves around the region/
  technology impacts the way we move around/ communicate, play, and work, and our
  preferences (and tolerances) change. The demand for different uses also changes. For
  housing, the quality and amenities provided by our housing stock, economic factors/
  demographic shifts, the impact of changes in the transportation and employment
  networks, and tax policies all affect the demand for housing. Most residential areas will
  remain residential, but if a current site that is not housing becomes available for
  redevelopment and the location might be appropriate for housing/ should the land use
  change to housing? Maybe, yes. Maybe, no. Maybe/ yes and no.



 Change in Development Patterns — A community that is not in growth
 or renewal is in decline, and as such/ provision should be made to allow for
 the appropriate renewal of housing so that the housing stock remains in
 demand to protect the value of neighborhoods, provides increased
 opportunities for greater numbers of people to benefit from public goods/
 and does not have an overall negative impact on other cornerstones of the
 Village's economic health - empfoyment, a diversified tax base, and places
 to buy goods and services,



 Understanding Change in
 Development Patterns



  1. As the existing housing stock ages, provisions should be made to maintain/ improve/
 upgrade/ and replace existing housing to provide new housing that appeals to a
 broad population. Not providing for this renewal of housing limits the potential
 market of buyers and decreases demand for the current housing stock.

  2. Land that is not being used for residential uses should only be converted to a solely
 residential use if it is determined that the site cannot support the non-residential
  *84951 v2 - Comprehensive Plan Chapter6: Housing Approved by the Vlage Board V3/20G5

 Return to top of B




 uses. Vacancy Is not necessarily support for changing a non-residentlai use. Is it
 really that there Is no longer a demand for the non-resldential use at the location/ or
 could It be that there is a problem with the layout, design, age, or functionalEty of
 the bulidlng? Is It real market forces driving the change or is private profit tax
 considerations, or some other reason driving the decision? If there would be a
 viable building on the site that would be used for commefcial, empioyment/ or
 research and development purposes, would the site be a viable business or service


 3. When confronted with two truths, it may be best to choose both. For sites that
 have the amenities to attract both residential and non-residentlal uses, maybe the
 best solution Is to include both uses. ResldentlaE-retall, residentlal-servtce, and
 resldential-employment mixes are again becoming economically viable. Adding
 residential to a non-functlonsl commercial use while replacing the commercial space
 with a better designed^ modem space allows the Village to effidentEy meet multiple
 Village needs,

 4. The Village's current property tax policy of keeping Its portion of the property tax
 levy constant from year to year requires tax revenues other than property taxes for
 monetar/ sustenance. Replacing land uses that had produced or could produce
 sales taxes or other non-property tax revenue with solely residential uses decreases
 &he Villaqe of Skokie's revenue sirtce there is no correspondinq Increase In
 taxes. The other Eaxing bodies would realize an economic benefit from any change
 Ehat produces a net increase in taxable portion of the assessed value of the
 property/ especially if the new use does not produce a need for services. For
 example/ in Skokle/ multjfamHy condominium occupants include few schooi-aged
 children needing to be educated relative to the increased tax revenue to the school
 districts. Therefore, residential mixed uses and multjfamily condominium
 developments are more likely to produce a long-term positive income stream for the
 school districts.

 5. Also, the current Cook County property tax assessment system places a higher
 taxable value on commerciaE and industrial land. Changing a commercial or
 Industrial use to a solely residential use might reduce the total property taxes
 collected/ unless the new residential building is, at minimum/ 21/4 times the current
 assessed value, and probably much more when residential property tax exemptions
 are considered. Preserving a commercial or employment use as part of a
 development keeps revenue high, the tax coffers fuller/ and services and jobs
 available for our residents. These are just a few reasons why mixing uses, when
 possible, is important for the Village's long-term economic health.

 There are many factors to consider when changing the use of land, but with proper
 policies In place/ rational land use decisions can be made.
