Mayor of Aurora, Richard Irvin read a proclamation for August 1, as Timothy Brennan Day, at the Aurora City Council meeting Tuesday, July 26.
Tim Brennan died in March on his 56th wedding anniversary. His wife of 56 years Hilary received the proclamation and thanked the City Council.
In honor of his life and legacy, the Compassion Foundation in Aurora renamed their golf outing to the Timothy Brennan Memorial Golf Classic. The event will be Monday, Aug. 1.
He was active in the Aurora community, serving on the Board of the Compassion Foundation for more than 25 years and was one of the founders of the Golf Tournament. He served on the Board of Directors for the Missionaries of the Sacred Heart, and capital campaign committee for Aurora Central Catholic High School.
Since 1989 the Compassion Foundation has provided grants to more than 500 agencies, impacting local families, and businesses, in the Aurora area.
• There were two individuals seeking to use their voices for up to three minutes each:
Aurora resident Maria Avila, representing Oak Park neighborhood group which meets at Oak Park Elementary School, 1200 Front Street, said the group is in Ward 7, alderwoman Scheketa Hart-Burns Ward and requested relocation to Ward 2 alderwoman Juany Garza’s Ward after the Census redistrictring has been completed. She said most people in the group are Spanish-speakers, and are seeking alderwoman Garza for easier communication in the Ward.
Aurora resident Joe Lusk, represented the Luxemburger “Luxies” Club. Lusk expressed concerns about increased amusement tax and the wording in the amusement ordinance. He said in the Ordinance, Luxies is stated as a distributor, and if the word distributor was changed to the phrase terminal operator, the provider could possibly pick up the proposed additional gaming machine tax.
Placed on hold for two weeks was a Resolution updating amusement fees charged by the city government of Aurora.
The purpose is to update and revise Chapter 8 fees related to “Amusements.”
City government of Aurora documents show at the end of 2021, the Illinois legislature amended the Illinois Video Gaming Act to require that any fees enacted under the statute shall be shared equally between the restaurant establishment and the terminal owner. This change has triggered the City government to re-evaluate and update amusement fees. City of Aurora amusement fees were last revised in September 2019.
Annual licensing fees: Under the City’s current fee structure, they only require the video gaming (gambling) terminal owner to be licensed, and do not require the restaurant establishment to be licensed. The City government licenses restaurants and other establishments for having arcade games and pool tables, so it seems logical to license them to have video gaming (gambling) machines. Based on this addition to the annual licensing, both the video gaming (gambling) operator/distributor and the establishment owner will both be required to be licensed, and each will pay an annual fee of $1,000..
Annual operational fees: Under the current operational fee schedule the establishment pays an operator’s fee of $25. a month and the distributor pays a $100. fee (per machine, per month). Because these fees are to be shared equally, the City government increased the total of these combined fees from $125. a month to $150. per month, per machine. This amount was modestly increased and allows for the fee to be evenly split between both the establishment and the distributor.
These revised fees are a moderate increase to current video gambling licensing and operational fees, and will update the City’s fee structure to be in compliance with the State statute.
The City Council approved the following agenda items:
• Approved was a Resolution approving the appointment of Elizabeth Diederich, Alexandra Engelhardt, Meredith Lindgren, and David Givens, to the city’s Advisory Commission for Disabilities.
City government of Aurora documents show in June 2021, the City Council approved changes to Chapter 2, which included a sunset provision for all board/commission members. The sunset was included to bring the board/commission terms into compliance with the new dates provided in the ordinance, as well as survey members if they wished to continue to serve or step down.
The nomination brought forth represents four new candidates:
Elizabeth Diederch is a Ward 5 resident who works at Waubonsee Community College.
Alexandra Engelhardt is a non-resident of Aurora who is the executive director of Fox Valley Special Recreation Association.
Meredith Lindgren is a Ward 4 resident who is an active member of the community with her involvement at West Aurora High School, Big Brothers Big Sisters, and Family Counseling, as well as the Hesed House.
David Givens is a Ward 1 resident who is a security field supervisor for Services of America.
The above-mentioned candidates’ appointments were approved to fill all the vacancies on the commission.
• Approved was a motion authorizing and directing the chief human resources officer to execute a settlement agreement on behalf of the City in Workers Compensation Claim #189203815 and Claim #189417752-001.
• Approved was an Ordinance Vacating Easements on the Jet Brite Car Wash property at 1427 N. Farnsworth Avenue.
City government of Aurora documents show the Petitioner, Jet Bright Car Wash, is requesting the vacation of easements for the property at 1427 N. Farnsworth Avenue.
The property is used as a car wash, single bay and is zoned B3(C) Business and Wholesale District with a Conditional Use. The property was originally approved for a car wash in 1992 with Final Plan Revisions being approved in 2007 and 2010. An additional Final Plan Revision was approved in 2022.
The Petitioner is requesting the vacation of easements. When the Final Plan Revision was approved in 2022, an accompanying Final Plat of Subdivision was also approved. This Plat of Vacation seeks to vacate some of the remaining easements that are no longer applicable after the approval of the Final Plan. The easements to be vacated are an ingress/egress easement, a sanitary sewer easement, and a stormwater control easement.
Staff members have reviewed the Vacation Ordinance – Easement petition and have determined that it meets the applicable codes and ordinances.
• Approved was a Resolution authorizing the creation of the Finish Line Grant Program to be administered by the City and accepting the transfer of funds previously paid to Invest Aurora for similar purposes.
City government of Aurora documents show this Resolution will authorize the rebranding, marketing and administration of the Finish Line Grant Program by MOED to increase business start-up, recruitment and expansion for the downtown core.
The Finish Line Grant Program has helped to enhance the economic viability of downtown Aurora. With the amendment of the agreement between the City and Invest Aurora, administration of the FLG is being transferred to MOED. This program is intended to add retail and commercial space to Aurora’s downtown while improving the facades of key downtown buildings. In doing so, these projects will help create momentum and a vibrant community through increased retail and restaurant attraction.
This program will continue to assist incoming businesses that will improve the economic vitality of the City. As provided for under separate communications to the City Council, FLG will also be coordinated in conjunction with the new Re-Start Retention Grant program, increasing overall efficiency in grant administration and improving the business experience through streamlining all programs.
The city of Aurora government remains committed to the attraction of retailers and restaurants. The Finish Line Grant is an integral part of business recruitment. Because FLG is funded through transfers from City Tax Increment Finance Districts, all recipients/projects must be within these TIF districts. This incentivized program will allow for a marketing platform to attract businesses more easily and offer a competitive advantage over other communities.
Requirements for eligibility and guidelines for the Finish Line Grant program are not changing. Total funding being transferred from Invest Aurora to the City is $606,000, for use in 2022. The 2023 budget will also recommend the continuation of the FLG grant program as a decision package to be reviewed later this Fall that would encompass the entire City of Aurora.
Approval of this resolution will support further business recruitment and expansion throughout the downtown as outlined in the program.
• Approved was an Ordinance Designating the City of Aurora East River Bend Tax Increment Financing District Redevelopment Project Area.
City government of Aurora documents show the East River Bend Tax Increment Financing District (“TIF District”) is being created to support the DAC development at 100 N Broadway. Staff members have been working with consultants, Kane, McKenna and Associates, and Klein, Thorpe and Jenkins, Ltd to assist with the creation of the TIF District. The Ordinances create the TIF District that will support the DAC residential apartment development, as approved by the City Council in a previously approved Redevelopment Agreement in 2021.
The subject parcels are within the City’s Downtown area, generally bordered on the south by Spring Street (as extended west to the Fox River), on the east by Broadway Avenue, on the north by a certain parcel occupied by Jakes Bagel and Deli, and on the west by the Fox River. Parts of the proposed TIF District is within the City’s existing TIF # 1 and other parts are within the City’s TIF # 6.
Constructing a new multi-family residential development on the banks of the Fox River in Downtown Aurora, particularly near the Aurora Transportation Center, has been a consistent recommendation of numerous City long-range planning documents for decades. Combined with the recommendations of the Downtown Housing Study (2019), the growing demand for rental housing, the redevelopment of long vacant historic buildings in the Downtown, and the recent completion of the new Pedestrian and Bicycle Bridge.
The TIF District Redevelopment Plan prepared by Kane, McKenna and Associates that guides improvements, activities and projects within the TIF District in order to stimulate private investment, along with a map and legal description of the TIF District. Designating a TIF District will allow the City to collect and use incremental property taxes in support of redevelopment efforts over a period of up to 23 years.
Staff members anticipate that the TIF District, and the associated redevelopment activities therein, will increase the City’s overall tax base, by facilitating investment and development, which will offset any incidental Department or staffing impacts.
• Approved was an Ordinance approving certain minor changes to the eligibility study and report and to the redevelopment plan and project for the East River Bend tax increment financing district pursuant to 65 ILCS 5/11-74.4-5(a).
City government of Aurora documents show the East River Bend Tax Increment Financing District (“TIF District”) is being created to support the DAC development at 100 N. Broadway. Staff members have been working with consultants, Kane, McKenna and Associates, and Klein, Thorpe and Jenkins, Ltd. to assist with the creation of the TIF District. This ordinance approves minor changes to the eligibility study and report and to the redevelopment plan and project for the proposed new TIF.
The subject parcels are within the City’s Downtown area, generally bordered on the south by Spring Street (as extended west to the Fox River), on the east by Broadway Avenue, on the north by a certain parcel occupied by Jakes Bagel and Deli, and on the west by the Fox River. Parts of the proposed TIF District is within the City’s existing TIF # 1 and other parts are within the City’s TIF # 6.
The following minor changes are being recommended by the City’s consultants at Kane, McKenna and Associates, in order to more precisely describe the prior TIF district boundaries in the vicinity, and in order to incorporate the most recently certified initial EAV of the properties in the TIF District:
In the Eligibility Study, “Executive Summary:” In the first paragraph, change the third to last sentence to read “Parts of the Study Area is within the City’s existing TIF # 1 and other parts are within the City’s TIF # 6.”
In the Eligibility Study, Page 3 “General Scope and Methodology:” Change the last sentence on the page to read “The conclusions in this report are conditioned on portions of the Study Area being removed from the City’s Downtown Tax Increment Financing District 1 and Tax Increment Financing District 6, respectively, prior to designation of the Study Area as a TIF District.”
In the TIF Plan, Page 24 “Most Recent Equalized Assessed Valuation (EAV) of Properties in the Redevelopment Project Area:” Change the only sentence to read “The most recent equalized assessed valuation for the RPA is based on the 2021 EAV and is estimated to be approximately $84,735.”
Staff members anticipate that the TIF District, and the associated redevelopment activities therein, will increase the City’s overall tax base, by facilitating investment and development, which will offset any incidental Department or staffing impacts.
• Approved was a Resolution to execute “amended exhibit F” to the approved redevelopment agreement (R22-0223) with the Windfall Group LLC.
City government of Aurora documents show the Windfall group is requesting to update exhibit F of the RDA (approved by City Council on February 8, 2022) in order to move back various milestones, set for the design, entitlement and construction process as required under the Agreement.
In February of this year, City Council approved a redevelopment agreement with the Windfall Group. Exhibit F of that agreement outlines various deadlines for the Developers to comply with under the terms of the agreement.
Windfall has been working with city government of Aurora staff members since the approval of the RDA undertaking a series of meetings and discussions. Through these meetings progress has been made, however, the design work has taken longer than expected. There was a significant amount of time spent identifying the proposed building footprint to ensure appropriate public open space along the riverfront, along the north side of the building that will create a 45-foot-wide public plaza leading to the pedestrian/bicycle bridge landing. Staff members met with multiple departments and groups including the APD and ACCA on site to ensure sufficient setbacks will be put into place. Those increased setbacks led to changes in the buildings design.
Therefore, staff members and the developer are requesting Council approval of an amended project timeline to push back key steps by approximately 2-3 months in order to accommodate the delay caused by the necessary design changes.
This Resolution to execute amended exhibit F of the RDA will allow for the redevelopment of 309 N. River Street to proceed as part of the continued development of the west bank of the riverfront.
• Approved was a Resolution creating the Re-Start Retention Grant Program to provide continued support to Aurora small businesses due to adverse financial conditions arising out of the COVID 19 Pandemic.
City government of Aurora documents show this Resolution will authorize the creation of a grant program to support Aurora businesses to re-start or stay open in the face of adverse financial conditions arising from the COVID 19 Pandemic.
Although nearly all COVID 19 restrictions regarding the conduct of day-to-day business have been lifted in Illinois and the counties covered by the city of Aurora government, businesses are still faced with the financial aftermath of the pandemic. These conditions include but are not limited to the repayment of deferred rent, reopening costs, higher labor costs, and supply chain issues that impact their daily bottom line.
The City and Invest Aurora successfully provided relief to Aurora businesses through the STABLE and CERF grant programs during the pandemic. The two programs combined issued nearly $1.9 million in grant funding. While this may seem like a large investment, it should be compared to the value and revenue the City’s total businesses represent. Using 2021 financial data, the City had approximately $2.4 Billion in taxable sales and had an assessed value of commercial property of nearly $700 Million (total assessed value is $4.4 billion for all property). Retaining this level of activity (sales revenue) and investment (property values) will always require continuous investment by the City. In order to keep the City’s local small business community thriving, a newly developed grant program, titled Re-Start Retention Grant Program, is being proposed for the remainder of 2022 and in to 2023.
The city of Aurora government remains committed to the retention and attraction of small independent businesses (retail and restaurants). As noted above, businesses are dealing with labor shortages and the higher cost of labor thereof, as well as increasing costs in supplies and equipment. This situation compounds the prior issues of deferred rent or loans outstanding resulting from the pandemic. Below is a breakdown of the major components of the program including funding, requirements, and guidelines.
Funding for the Re-Start Retention grant program is proposed to come from two sources in 2022. The first source is recommended to be $230,000 in remaining funding from the CERF program (The CERF program was originally funded for $1.2 million and final usage of the program was just over $960,000. The second source of funding for this program will be the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) through the State and Local Fiscal Recovery Fund (SLERF) for an estimated $270,000 for a total estimated 2022 funding of $500,000. Grants for this program are anticipated to be initially allocated (not distributed) on a Ward by Ward basis at $50,000 per Ward. Not all Wards have the same amount of need for business support and actual distribution of Grant funding is not recommended to be transferred into Ward Funds. If unused at the end of 2022, these funds will be redistributed to businesses in need throughout the City and subject to City Council approval. While funding is available, a budget amendment will also need to be approved for the General Fund and the ARPA Fund.
The City’s CERF program was based on an urgent need in the community with the goal to distribute funding to businesses in a responsible and expedient manner. The new Re-Start Retention Grant program shares this goal, but may also be renewed based on available funding into the future. As such grants will be cycled on a quarterly basis as follows:
Grant Submission deadline: January 1, April 1, July 1, October 1. (First submission deadline could be before October 1, 2022 for this partial year)
Grant Review Period – Staff members review of compliance and need based on applicant data will occur in first month of each quarter.
Council Review Period – Recommended grants will be placed on Finance Committee Agenda in second month of each quarter (February, May, August, and November) and will proceed through Council approval process
Grant Cycle will repeat as applications and funding allow.
Staff members will provide the Finance Committee with semi-annual updates on grant status and this information can also be attached to any given quarter’s approval agenda item.
• Approved was a Resolution establishing the maximum number of Class A: Packaged Sales (Gas Station/Beer and Wine Only) liquor licenses (unofficially related to the application from Casey’s Retail Company at 330 N Eola Rd). [Ward 8]
The purpose is to increase the number of Class A: Packaged Sales (Gas Station/Beer and Wine Only) liquor licenses. Casey’s Retail Company, d/b/a Casey’s #6514 purchased the gas station at 330 N Eola Rd and has submitted a liquor license application to sell packaged beer and wine for off-site consumption.
City government of Aurora documents show this request is presented in accordance with the 2011 amendment to the City’s Liquor Ordinance, specifically Section 6-9(a), which charges the City Council with the authority to determine the number of licenses available in each classification.
Casey’s Retail Company purchased the gas station at 330 N. Eola Rd. A liquor license application has been submitted requesting a license to offer packaged beer and wine for sale for off-site consumption only.
If approved, this resolution will increase the number of allowable liquor licenses as indicated in the accompanying exhibit A to allow for the issuance of the license by the Liquor Commissioner. City staff members have been working with the business owner to ensure that all requirements for a liquor license, as set forth in Chapter 6 of the City’s Code of Ordinances, are met.
• Approved was a Resolution approving Tidy Up Experts, LLC as the janitorial services provider for the Aurora Police Department Complex from September 1, 2022, through December 31, 2023 with the option of three, one year extensions upon mutual agreement.
The purpose is to execute a successor contract for janitorial services for the Aurora Police Department.
City government of Aurora documents show the Aurora Police Department Complex, at 1200 E. Indian Trail, is the City’s central law enforcement facility. Given the considerable size, high traffic volume, security posture, furnishings, and continuous operation, daily janitorial maintenance is critical to preserve the general conditions and create a clean, hygienic, environmentally friendly workplace for employees and citizens alike.
The current janitorial services contract expires August 31, 2022, and to establish a successor contract, a request for proposal (RFP 22-34 Janitorial Services for the Aurora Police Department Complex) was publicly advertised in the Aurora Beacon Newspaper, on Demandstar, and also posted to the City’s website.
A total of 41 vendors viewed the advertisement and a pre-bid meeting which included a facility walkthrough was conducted on April 11, 2022. Proposals were received from 10 vendors and publicly opened on April 20, 2022. The proposals were evaluated based on five qualifying components: Price was weighted at 30%, availability and capacity at 25%, experience and references at 20%, company qualifications at 15%, and minimum qualifications and responsiveness at 10%.
This janitorial services contract emphasizes the appearance and general conditions of the workplace and public areas of the building which are a reflection of quality, public safety, transparency and accountability for the visitors and employees at the facility and to the citizens of Aurora. Following thorough evaluation of all the proposals, the submission from Tidy Up Experts, LLC, of Chicago yielded the highest weighted score and their references carried high levels of satisfaction.
Local Preference does not apply to request for proposals.
The contract term for Janitorial Services for the Aurora Police Department Complex would be from September 1, 2022, through December 31, 2023, with the option of three additional, one year extensions upon mutual agreement.
The monthly service fee of $17,000.00 shall be drawn from monies budgeted in account 101-4010-417.36-03.
Tidy Up Experts, LLC is not indebted to the City government.
• Approved was a Resolution approving a Finish Line Grant of $100,000.00 to Bernie Laskowski/Craft Urban previously approved by Invest Aurora and now transferred to the City of Aurora.
City government of Aurora documents show this Resolution approving a Finish Line Grant (FLG)to Bernie Laskowski/Craft Urban is a part of the transition process wherein the Finish Line Grant Program is being transferred from Invest Aurora to the Mayor’s Office of Economic Development (the City) for ongoing administration.
The renovation of 41 Stolp Ave and 1 W Downer Pl has been a multi-step process involving several actions of the City Council as follows:
The first is resolution R19-421 on December 30, 2019 provided for the City’s purchase of the adjacent vacant lot (1 W. Downer Place) and a commitment to fund up to $600,000 in a renovation/construction loan subject to terms to be spelled out in a subsequent RDA.
The second is resolution R20-077 on April 1, 2020 that formalized mutual understandings and commitments between Mr. Laskowski and the City.
The third resolution approved on March 23, 2021 was R21-066 which changed the development of the second floor from apartments to banquet facilities.
The fourth resolution R21-315, approved on November 9, 2021, acknowledged the increased project costs due to COVID 19 Pandemic causes and the City approved a $350,000 grant from American Rescue Plan Act funding.
The restaurant is nearly complete, with a planned opening by August 2022. Upon completion, the project would also be eligible for reimbursement funding of $100,000 from the FLG program. The final estimated project costs are $1,917,000 and as noted in the Redevelopment Agreements with Craft Urban involves $725,000 in private investment, necessary for qualification under the FLG program.
As a part of the new agreement with Invest Aurora, the City is assuming administration of the FLG program. Two projects are in transition, meaning they have been approved but not completed/funds distributed as of the date of the transition of the FLG program. As such Craft Urban and a second project, Wyckwood House are being brought separately to the City Council for approval.
Invest Aurora is transferring $606,000 in funding back to the City to provide resources for the program going forward.
FLG and other grants that are not in the 2022 budget will require a budget amendment, which will be presented to the City Council as soon as all programs are approved.
Approval of this resolution will allow for the continued administration of the FLG program for the benefit of Downtown businesses.
• Approved was a Resolution approving a Finish Line Grant of $71,000.00 to Shannon Gutierrez/Wyckwood House at 80 S. River St. previously partially approved by Invest Aurora and now transferred to the City of Aurora.
City government of Aurora documents show this Resolution approving a Finish Line Grant (FLG) to Shannon Gutierrez/Wyckwood House is a part of the transition process wherein the Finish Line Grant Program is being transferred from Invest Aurora to the Mayor’s Office of Economic Development (the City) for ongoing administration.
Wyckwood House is a new tenant that has helped complete the occupancy of spaces at the 80 S. River development. Wyckwood House has moved from 14 W. Downer St. to this new location, expanding their retail footprint to 4,800 sq ft, dedicated to events, private shopping and cocktail bar.
Invest Aurora originally reviewed business plans that warranted a FLG of $56,000.00, but after reviews with the Development Service Team and recommendations made by the MOED Office, this FLG grant request is $71,000 which, based on the tenant’s increased investment is still in keeping with the requirements of the FLG program. That total encompasses the original FLG and $15,000 for grease trap infrastructure as required by the Fox Metro Waterwater Reclamation District.
Renovations/Build out is presently complete at a total cost of $245,746.12.
As a part of the new agreement with Invest Aurora, the City is assuming administration of the FLG program. Two projects are in transition, meaning they have been approved but not completed/funds distributed as of the date of the transition of the FLG program. As such Craft Urban and a second project, Wyckwood House are being brought separately to the City Council for approval.
Wyckwood House total development plans changed from the initial review by Invest Aurora to the present request. The buildout of the space at 80 S. River is now complete and the Mayor’s Office of Economic Development is taking over the process of acquiring receipts, waivers of lien, Certificate of Occupancy and other requirements under the FLG program as previously administered by Invest Aurora. Invest Aurora is transferring $606,000 in funding back to the City to provide resources for the program going forward.
FLG and other grants that are not in the 2022 budget will require a budget amendment, which will be presented to the City Council as soon as all programs are approved.
Approval of this resolution will allow for the continued administration of the FLG program for the benefit of Downtown businesses.
• Approved was a resolution requesting Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS) compliance assessment by Crowe LLP, 225 West Wacker Dr, Suite 2600, Chicago, Il 60606-1224 for a total amount not to exceed $65,000.00
City government of Aurora documents show the City is required to be compliant with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI-DSS) and identify the key components of secure data environments that stores and/or processes credit card information. This is critical to ensure the security of payment card transactions and cardholder data.
PCI-DSS is a set of industry standards designed to protect payment card data aligned to the following control objectives:
1) Build and maintain a secure network.
2) Protect cardholder data.
3) Maintain a vulnerability management program.
4) Implement strong access control measures.
5) Regularly monitor and test networks.
6) Maintain an information security policy.
In April 2022, Merrick Bank, the City government’s credit card processing institution, contacted the Finance Department through Core Business Technologies, the Managed Service Provider for Merrick Bank, to provide the City’s status as it pertains to PCI-DSS compliance as a level 3 merchant (one of their larger processing accounts).
Core Business Technologies provided the audit report from January 4, 2016, which states the City has been out of compliance for the SAQ (Self-assessment questionnaire) and vulnerability scans.
Crowe LLC was engaged to assist with the development of a Payment Card Industry (PCI) Program.
Crowe LLC is the City government’s strategic partner since 2013. They have intimate knowledge of City’s infrastructure, systems, data and assets. Due to sensitive nature of PCI audit, the City government prefers going with Crowe LLC as a preferred vendor.
Development of the program involved the same steps 1-5 as being proposed with Aurora:
