The Rock Island City Council met in Study Session at 5:00 p.m. in the Personnel Conference Room of Rock Island City Hall. Present were Mayor Mark W. Schwiebert, presiding, and Aldermen Terry M.A. Brooks I, David Conroy, Dennis E. Pauley, Stephen L. Tollenaer, Margie Mejia-Caraballo, Joy Murphy, and Charles O. Austin III. Also present were City Manager John Phillips, Community and Economic Development Director Greg Champagne, Planning and Redevelopment Administrator Alan Carmen, Bruce Morrow of Schreiber Anderson Associates and Jeff Dismer of Gere/Dismer Architects.   

 

ARMORY PARK DESIGN UPDATE

 

City Manager John Phillips inquired upon Planning and Redevelopment Administrator Alan Carmen to update Council on Mr. Morrow's presentation for the design concepts for Armory Park. Mr. Carmen commented that Council will be presented with two (2) concepts and amenities (associated with the concepts) to decide whether or not Council will be comfortable with the two concepts that will be presented for public review on Monday, January 28, 2008 at the Rock Island Library from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., and on Tuesday, January 29, 2008 from 7:30 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. at Gere/Dismer Architects. Mr. Carmen then inquired upon Mr. Bruce Morrow to update Council on the two (2) preferred design concepts for Armory Park.

 

Mr. Morrow distributed project drawings of the Armory Silhouette and Arc concepts to Council along with a cost estimate for the proposed concepts.  Mr. Morrow discussed the plans, models and cost for each concept. The first concept presented was the Armory Silhouette. Mr. Morrow pointed out that a main stage, Armory Silhouette arches, an observation platform and shelter would be included in this option. Other elements would include a west water wall, an interactive water feature, an upper riverfront promenade, water taxi docking, lighting and landscaping. Mr. Morrows showed a three-dimensional model of the proposed concept and acknowledged that the estimated base cost with the above features and additional contingency and engineering costs would total approximately 10 million dollars. Mr. Morrow noted that there were many optional features that could be added as well as base features that could be taken away. Mr. Morrow also stated that the cost estimates would fluctuate depending on what features were chosen.

 

Mr. Morrow then presented Council with the Arc concept, which would feature a main stage with an observation tower, a gateway arch at 18th Street and subgrade storage (4000 square feet). Other park elements would include a water course, an interactive water feature, performance lawn terraces, a water taxi dock, lighting and landscaping. Mr. Morrow explained that the estimated cost for this option for the base features would also be approximately 10 million dollars. And, the features in this option could also be upgraded.

 

Discussion followed regarding parking issues, cost and features of the structures. Mayor Schwiebert had concerns with parking on site. The Mayor offered that the gateway arches at the entrances to 18th Street and 19th Street may close in the area. The Mayor was concerned that if the site didn't show openness or greenspace, it would be less of a destination. 

 

Alderman Conroy had concerns with the cost of the concepts, and stated that he would like to wait and see what the outcome is from the public before a decision is made. Alderman Conroy as well as other Council members also inquired to City Manager Phillips as to where the funding would come from.

 

Mr. Phillips stated that some of the funding would come from TIF, and there may be private funding as well as possible funds from appropriations. 

 

 

HUMAN RELATIONS COMMISSION ORDINANCE

 

Mr. Phillips inquired upon Community and Economic Development Director Greg Champagne to update Council on the proposed changes to the Human Relations Commission Ordinance that is on the Agenda for tonight's Council meeting. Mr. Champagne stated that the Human Relations Ordinance was proposed at the December 17, 2008 Council meeting. There were concerns regarding various language in the Ordinance, and it was deferred for further review. Mr. Champagne offered that the Ordinance on the Agenda tonight is a reflection of the Human Relations Commission meeting that was held on January 9, 2008.  Mr. Champagne noted that the issue at hand is how complaints are handled by the commission. It was offered that the original concept presented incorporated a three (3) person sub-committee. Part of the reason for the three (3) person group relates to the Open Meetings Act, and a desire to try and mediate a complaint outside of the public process.

 

Mr. Champagne explained that further research by the City Attorney suggested that the Open Meetings Act applied to any sub-group of any committee. In effect, the three (3) group committee would still fall under the Open Meetings Act. Mr. Champagne offered that the compromise was to utilize two (2) people (the chair or chair's designate and the CED Director) to mediate a grievance in a more private setting, with the concept that if the respondent did not avail themselves in the process then it would be a public process for the commission.

 

Mr. Champagne concluded that at the commission's January 9th meeting, it was voted unanimously to go back to the three (3) person sub-committee that was originally presented on the Ordinance. Mr. Champagne concluded that the Ordinance that is on the Agenda tonight excludes that.  The recommendation is for the two (2) people (the Chair or chair's designate and CED Director) to mediate the disputes. The Ordinance is contrary to what the commission prefers.

Proclamation declaring the month of January, 2008 as Mentoring Month.

 

Mayor Schwiebert read the Proclamation declaring the month of January, 2008 as Mentoring Month. Big Sister Cindy Kuhn and Little Sister Fannie from Big Brothers/Big Sisters Program stepped forward and accepted the Proclamation. Ms. Kuhn stated that she and Fannie have been matched for eight (8) years; and Fannie is now a junior in high school. Ms. Kuhn noted that she has been in the program for twenty years and Fannie is her third (3) Little Sister. In addition, Ms. Kuhn mentioned that the other two (2) Little Sisters have finished high school and are very good citizens.

Agenda Item #7

A Special Ordinance restricting traffic on 41st Street between 20th Avenue and Denkmann School to one-way northbound traffic on school days from 8:00 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. and 2:45 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. 

 

It was moved by Alderwoman Murphy, seconded by Alderman Austin to consider, suspend the rules and pass the Special Ordinance restricting traffic on 41st Street between 20th Avenue and Denkmann School to one-way northbound traffic on school days from 8:00 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. and 2:45 p.m. to 3:30 p.m.

 

Discussion followed.  Alderman Austin suggested that an amendment be made to the Ordinance by deleting the language from 8:00 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. and 2:45 p.m. to 3:30 p.m., and inserting on school days when children are present. Alderman Austin moved and Alderman Brooks seconded to amend. 

 

 More discussion followed.  Alderman Conroy had concerns with language in the Ordinance. City Manager Phillips stated that it would work somewhat like it does at Audubon School. The signs would be posted in the morning before school starts and when dismissal starts. The signs would fold, so there would be no restriction on this until the hours when it is needed to restrict the traffic. Those would be the times at which the sign would be posted for northbound one-way traffic. Mr. Phillips added that it would just designate traffic flow when it is posted; and with this change (when the sign is posted), it will match up consistently with the Ordinance that is being used to enforce it.

 

Public Works Director Bob Hawes stated that this particular street leads to the school. It is a residential street that does not have parking on either side for half a block.

 

Police Chief Wright had concerns regarding the language; when children are present.

Chief Wright stated that the language proposed may be somewhat vague; and suggested that it would be easier to enforce the Ordinance if the designated hours language was kept in the Ordinance.

 

Mayor Schwiebert suggested inserting the language; when children are present and a sign is posted.  Mayor Schwiebert inquired upon the move (Alderman Austin) if that was satisfactory to make that language part of the amendment. Alderman Austin responded yes. The Mayor then inquired upon the second (Alderman Brooks) if he would accept the language. Alderman Brooks responded yes.

 

The amended motion reads as follows;

 

It was moved by Alderman Austin, seconded by Alderman Brooks to amend the Special Ordinance restricting traffic on 41st Street between 20th Avenue and Denkmann School to one-way northbound traffic on school days when children are present, and a sign is posted. The motion carried by the following Aye and No vote; those voting Aye being Alderman Brooks, Alderman Conroy, Alderman Pauley, Alderman Tollenaer, Alderwoman Mejia-Caraballo, Alderwoman Murphy and Alderman Austin; those voting No, none.

Agenda Item #12

Report from the Community and Economic Development Department regarding an Agreement with Rock Island Downtown Development Inc.

 

Alderman Austin moved and Alderwoman Murphy seconded to approve the agreement as recommended, and authorize the City Manager to execute the contract documents.

 

Discussion followed with Alderman Pauley inquiring to Community and Economic Development Director Greg Champagne as to why staff recommended $350.000.00 for six (6) apartments when in the beginning, there was a price of $150,000.00 attached to eight (8) two-story apartments excluding two (2) garages.

 

Mr. Champagne stated that when the project was first reviewed, it was not clear that there was a Prevailing Wage requirement. The Department of Labor indicated that if the City puts cash into a project, it brings along the requirements of the Prevailing Wage Act. Mr. Champagne pointed out that the developer then had to reassess the project, and that caused an increase in price. Mr. Champagne offered that the addition of two (2) buildings also assisted in the price increase. Mr. Champagne stated that another contributing factor for the increase was due to larger units. Mr. Champagne noted that although there are two (2) fewer units, the units are larger not only in square footage, but also larger by one (1) story. Mr. Champagne pointed out that the last contributing factor for the price increase is the market. Mr. Champagne added that the market is not there to foster new or occupied housing in the Downtown; and to justify the cost of building housing like the proposed project entails. Mr. Champagne noted that these units are targeted towards working artists.

 

Alderwoman Mejia-Caraballo inquired as to how much of the $350,000.00 was specifically in regards to the Prevailing Wage. Mr. Champagne stated that he did not know the details.

 

Alderman Conroy had concerns regarding the funds coming from TIF and the cost of the project.

 

Mr. Jeff Guthrie who is the Developer of the project showed a model and explained the layout of the condo units and the issues and changes that were made in regards to the project.  Mr. Guthrie offered that the concept is to not only bring in six (6) artists into a residential setting where they can work, but also it will give them the opportunity to hold other art activities where the garages can act as pavilions.

 

Alderwoman Mejia-Caraballo inquired as to whether any other options had been utilized other than the City filling the gap of $350,000.00; and what would the plan be if the City does not vote to fill the gap. Mr. Guthrie responded that he did not know if the project would be able to move forward.  

 

Rock Island Economic Growth Executive Director Brian Hollenback stated that this would be the first time that we have been able to be a non-profit facilitator of development.  Mr. Hollenback expressed that Rock Island Economic Growth will be taking the City’s contribution, and also will be bringing back another $125,000.000 that will go directly into the development costs. Mr. Hollenback noted that those funds would be in the form of state donation tax credits.

 

Mayor Schwiebert inquired to Mr. Guthrie as to whether there was a Co-op for the artists as part of the restrictive covenants on the purchase of the units that would give some assurance that they would buy in to the concept.  Mr. Guthrie stated that as part of the sales approach, the covenant retains the garage as part of the association’s ownership. Mr. Guthrie noted that it will give them the ability to use that space to invite other artists in and create art-like festivals for this housing development.  

 

Alderwoman Murphy stated that she would support the project, but wanted to be reassured that the space would be marketed for the intended use, which is for artists to purchase the property for residential living space as well as working space (opening up studios.)

 

 After more discussion regarding funding and parking issues, the motion carried by the following Aye and No vote: those voting Aye being Alderman Brooks, Alderwoman Mejia-Caraballo, Alderwoman Murphy and Alderman Austin; those voting No, Alderman Conroy, Alderman Pauley and Alderman Tollenaer.

 

Agenda Item #13

Report from the Community and Economic Development Department regarding a Special Ordinance providing for the sale of property located at 2416 4th Avenue.

 

It was moved by Alderman Austin, seconded by Alderwoman Murphy to consider, suspend the rules and pass the Ordinance providing for the sale of property located at 2416 4th Avenue. The motion carried by the following Aye and No vote: those voting Aye being Alderman Brooks, Alderman Conroy, Alderman Pauley, Alderman Tollenaer, Alderwoman Mejia-Caraballo, Alderwoman Murphy and Alderman Austin; those voting No, none.

 

Agenda Item #14

Report from the Community and Economic Development Department regarding revisions to the Human Relations Commission Ordinance. 

 

Note* Agenda Item #14 was deferred from Monday, January 14, 2008 Council Meeting.

 

Alderwoman Mejia-Caraballo moved and Alderman Austin seconded to consider, suspend the rules and pass the Ordinance.

 

Discussion followed with Mayor Schwiebert explaining that revisions were made to the Human Relations Ordinance to make it more in line with the State definitions of the categories of Discrimination; and to clarify the functions of the commission as a mediating body, and methods by which people would be appointed to the body. The Mayor also stated that additional revisions were incorporated into the Human Relations Ordinance regarding preliminary screening procedures by the Community and Economic Development Director and the Chairman or Chairman’s Designate. The Mayor noted there would also be a backup procedure, which would allow any two (2) members of the commission to challenge the decision of the Chair and CED Director to bring a matter before the full commission in an open meeting setting.

 

Ms. Lauren Loftin of 1209 18th Avenue, and a member of the Human Relations Commission stated that the issue is a matter of three (3) people viewing complaints as opposed to two (2) people, and to keep the twelve (12) person commission more involved in the process. Ms. Loftin pointed out that she had researched other commissions and had not found any commissions where just two (2) people reviewed complaints. Ms. Loftin also offered that in a section of the Open meetings Act, there are miscellaneous exceptions to the Open Meetings Act that refers directly to complaints of discrimination.

 

Mayor Schwiebert pointed out that if a sub-committee is created from within the commission; the sub-committee becomes a separate public body; and whenever it meets, it becomes subject to the Open Meeting Act and whatever exceptions there may be. Mayor Schwiebert noted that the usual exceptions are Personnel, Property Acquisition and Litigation.  Mayor Schwiebert stated that the law is very narrowly drawn regarding committees of the whole, sub-committees (public bodies) and exceptions to the Open Meetings Act.

 

Mayor Schwiebert inquired upon City Attorney Ted Kutsunis as to whether there was another exception that would deal with human relation grievances. Mr. Kutsunis stated that he did not know of any other exceptions.

 

After more discussion regarding this issue, Mr. Jim Kerr of 523 18th Avenue, and a member of the Human Relations Commission stated that he was not opposed to open meetings. Mr. Kerr noted that by utilizing one member from a twelve member panel was a waste of time. Mr. Kerr firmly stated that he did not want the Commission to fail.

 

Mr. Clayton Peterson of 1202 21st Street and a member of the Human Relations Commission stated that the commission was a diverse group, and wanted an Ordinance passed so that the commission could begin to do their job.

 

After more discussion, Alderman Pauley and Alderman Brooks suggested that this Agenda Item be deferred until issues regarding the exceptions could be reviewed. Mayor Schwiebert stated that the City Attorney would review the miscellaneous exceptions that Ms. Loftin had inquired about; and the action on Agenda Item #14 would be deferred until Monday, February 4, 2008.

 

The motion to defer reads as follows;

 

It was moved by Alderman Conroy, seconded by Alderman Brooks to defer action on Agenda Item #14 until Monday, February 4, 2008. The motion carried by the following Aye and No vote: those voting Aye being Alderman Brooks, Alderman Conroy, Alderman Pauley, Alderman Tollenaer, Alderwoman Mejia-Caraballo, Alderwoman Murphy and Alderman Austin; those voting No, none.

Agenda Item #17

Items from the City Manager’s Memorandum Packet.

 

City Manager John Phillips brought to the Council’s attention a report included in the memo packet regarding Plaza events, Café and Vendor fees in the downtown area. Mr. Phillips commented that currently, application fees are set at $25.00 and permit fees are $200.00 for “For Profit” organizations; and “Non-Profit” organizations are charged $25.00 per permit fee. Mr. Phillips noted that these fees have not been raised since 1994. In addition, Mr. Phillips suggested that these fees could be increased. However, by increasing the fees, it would not generate a lot of money in recovering the costs of reviewing, monitoring and following up on these kinds of events.

 

Alderman Conroy stated that the City of Chicago holds a lot of street events; and one activity fee is assessed to organizations that hold events that charge $5.00 to $10.00 to enter the event. However, for organizations that hold larger events and charge $25.00 to $30.00 to enter the event, there is a completely different activity fee that is assessed to the organization. Alderman Conroy suggested that for organizations that hold larger events that use the City’s Downtown area, and make a substantial amount of money off of the event, they should pay what it costs the City.

 

Mr. Phillips inquired upon Finance Director Bill Scott to present the 2007 December Management Report. Mr. Scott stated that in the General Fund, revenues are at 77%, which is slightly above the benchmark, which is 75%, and expenditures are below the benchmark at 67%. Mr. Scott noted that several expenditures were not included; adding these in, it is estimated that the City will still be under the benchmark. Mr. Scott pointed out that the State and Local tax is on target; the Utility and Telecommunication taxes continue to be a challenge. It was noted that when the year started; it was predicted for a larger surplus, and as the year end nears that surplus is getting tighter. The surplus and revenues are at $200,000.00. Mr. Scott stated that City-Wide funds look good and on target at 75%. However, there is a natural lag in Gaming funds and Fleet Services.

 

In the Debt area, Mr. Scott commented that there is General Obligation and Special Assessment debt. The City pays interest in June on General Obligation debt, and principle and interest on everything at the end of December. In the area of Community and Economic Development, the TIF area (property tax) continues to grow. The expenditures are 33% below expected amounts. Mr. Scott stated that for Appointed Boards, the Library and MLK Center, the revenues are well ahead of target and expenditures are slightly above target. The Park fund revenue is at 80% above target, but expenditures are 60% less than the target. Mr. Scott stated that in the Public Works area, all of the funds look good. In the area of Street and Miscellaneous Capital Improvements, Mr. Scott stated that these funds will fluctuate. Mr. Scott concluded that overall, the funds look good.

 

City Manager Phillips mentioned to Council that the Monthly Green Team’s activities and minutes were included in the memo packet. Also, Mr. Phillips noted that information was included in the memo packet regarding the Neighborhood Partners initiatives they are undertaking to provide assistance to different areas within the City that may be interested in organizing their neighborhoods.

 

Mr. Phillips concluded by thanking the staff at the MLK Center and Board of the MLK Center in the hard work that was accomplished regarding the event held today at the center commemorating Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Mr. Phillips also acknowledged Ametra Carroll who was presented with the Martin Luther King Award today at the MLK Center.

 

Mayor Schwiebert also thanked Jerry Jones and everyone at the MLK Center. Mayor Schwiebert stated that this is the 25th anniversary of the event; and the 40th anniversary of Dr. King’s assassination. Mayor Schwiebert concluded that Dr. Martin Luther King is remembered tonight for the great work he did, and the message he promoted for non-violence, change and striving for justice for all.

 

Alderwoman Murphy commented that if anyone was interested in obtaining an identity for their neighborhood, they may contact Neighborhood Partners who will be happy to provide assistance in organizing their neighborhood.
