Ms. McCann arrived at 8:17 AM. Ms. Barnes and Mr. Smith identified some revisions under the Aggregate Levy discussion. Ms. Barnes noted the County Board had not made a decision regarding the recapturing of the aggregate and suggested the sentence be amended to state "the County Board is considering going back two years to recapture the amount saved" and thereafter state "if the aggregate is not recaptured, it will be lost". Mr. Smith stated the last sentence should be in regards to the levy and not the aggregate. It was stated this sentence can be deleted if desired. Mr. Smith recommended the last sentence be removed. Mr. Smith made a motion, seconded by Ms. Barnes to amend the minutes to reflect the changes discussed. The motion carried on a roll call vote of all ayes.

6. ITEMS REMOVED FROM CONSENT AGENDA
1. Resolution Authorizing a Budget Transfer Between Non-Departmental and Human Resources Fiscal Year 2016 General Fund Budgets for the Purpose of Paying Legal Fees
Ms. Barnes questioned if the Human Resources budget, for legal fees, will be adjusted next year to account for more realistic costs in this area as the costs are more than what is being budgeted for. The budget is reviewed yearly with the Human Resource Director to address yearly legal fees that are charged to their budget. They do not want to budget for worse case scenarios. Ms. McCann stated they need to consider creating a policy where the departments are charged for the costs of union negotiations. It is believed that if the departments have to cover their own legal fees they will be more cognizant of the costs.
The committee members were informed the departments will have legal costs built into their budgets. The departments will be responsible for any legal fees, outside of union negotiations starting with the 2018 budgets.

2. Resolution Authorizing an Intergovernmental Agreement between the County of McHenry and the McHenry County Mental Health Board for Facilities Management
Ms. Barnes questioned how the cost to provide the services were figured in and whether the costs includes benefit costs. Mr. Burroughs stated they estimated how many man hours it would take to clean the facility, based on the facilities square footage. The rate of pay does not include benefit costs since the department would be required to pay for their employees benefit costs, no matter what job they were doing. It was stated they want to make sure the Mental Health Board is paying their fair share for these costs.

Ms. Barnes noted on packet page 126, the OCA numbers are listed differently than they have been in past resolutions. Mr. Sarbaugh noted he was trying to limit this Resolution to one page without defining each OCA number separately, for ease of imaging. She stated the intent may be known but others may not know that. Mr. Sarbaugh noted he can change the resolution to the familiar format.

This service is part of the function of the building and cannot be considered a part of public safety.

The committee members were informed this item was pulled because they had issues with the OCA codes not being included within the resolution. Mr. Hartman noted this resolution will allow staff to move on the first step of this project. Delays cause the cost of the project to increase. They would like to move forward to develop a project fund umbrella to address all costs associated with this

project. Mr. Sarbaugh, Ms. Palmer and Mr. Hartman will work together to identify the appropriate funding mechanism. Ms. McCann reminded the committee members this item has been included in the Capital Plan. She questioned why, if this part of the project was so urgent, they didn't prioritize this part of the project. She stated she is frustrated that the Facilities Committee did not understand the urgency of this project. She stated they shouldn't be spending money now as the department's are currently ending their yearly budgets. For life safety issues to be wrapped into the RTA tax is frustrating to her. She stated there needs to be better communication on the needs of the Capital Plan projects. Mr. Hartman noted this issue has been reported to this body and was identified in May/June of this year. They are now moving forward with this project because of the urgency of the repairs. The intent is to review the facility in order to obtain enough information to roll the design build specifications into one bid. They have pulled this portion of the project out in order to try to save some consultant funds. Mr. Sarbaugh noted at the end of each year there are usually small amount of funding left in some of the budgets that can be used for items they can't project. If this part of the project is not completed by the end of the year, the funds can then be encumbered and will roll forward into next year. Ms. Barnes voiced concern that they still have not identified funding for the Capital Projects and this is now being identified as an urgency. She stated she did not know this part of the project would need to be completed prior to identifying funding for the Capital Projects. She questioned how much money will be left from the Non-Departmental Capital line item after this agreement has been funded? Mr. Sarbaugh noted he believes there will be approximately $40,000 remaining, though this is a guess. Ms. Barnes stated she does not understand why the resolution does not include OCA numbers. She stated she also thought all the Capital Projects would be dealt with all at the same time and their process is not done yet. It was stated that there may be debt issued for the Capital Project Plan. This is accounted for differently in the accounting system. The projects will fall under a different line and will be funded in house. The numbers are unknown until the County Board has made a decision on whether they will be borrowing or not for these projects. They are trying to account for all costs in one location, under Capital Project Funds in order to create a history for the projects. Mr. Christensen left committee at 9:14 AM. Ms. Barnes stated that some of the RTA funds have been identified as a possible area to fund some of the projects. She questioned why these funds are not being considered to fund this item. The committee members were reminded the County Board has not approved a resolution to allow the use of the RTA funds for anything but Transportation Projects. Ms. Barnes stated she believes all the Capital Projects need to be addressed all at one time and believes the resolution should be reworked to address this urgency. This issue has been talked about in the past so if they plan on using the RTA funds for part of the projects they need to know this. It was stated that if the RTA funds are not identified for use for the life safety projects, the Division of Transportation will use it for their projects. The committee members were reminded the RTA funds would be only be used for a one time use. Mr. Christensen returned to committee at 9:17 AM. It was stated that the resolution would needed to be worded so they all understand the use of the RTA funds would be for one time only. Transportation projects cost a lot of money so they need to make sure these funds are being committed for use for their specific purpose. It was stated when the Finance and Audit Committee makes their decision, the RTA issue should not cause a delay. Chairman Skala noted the whole program information will be reviewed to take to a Committee of the Whole (COW) meeting. They will discuss all avenues of financing. The items within the Capital Plan

identifies where the funding will come from. This project will be removed from the Capital Plan and will be treated separately. They will use the OCA code for Capital Projects so all the expenses are accounted for under the same OCA. Once the project starts, another resolution will be needed in order to create a budget for the Capital Project costs in order to account for all the expenses. Ms. Barnes stated she believes it is not the best option to treat this project separately. She questioned if they have the option, before December 1st to prepare a resolution to get the funding back from the project. Mr. Smith made a motion, seconded by Ms. McCann to amend the resolution to state the General Fund will be reimbursed for the cost of this project, in the future, when the project fund has been created. The motion carried on a roll call vote of all ayes (Barnes, Christensen, Heisler, McCann, Smith, Skala) It was questioned if this action accomplishes what they desire. Mr. Sarbaugh will amend the resolution to reflect the committee desires. He will send the committee members the amended resolution for review. If there are any concerns regarding the amendment they will need to let Mr. Sarbaugh know. The amendment addresses the urgency to protect the General Fund with a guarantee the funding will be put back into the General Fund once they establish the overall project budget.

8. FY16-17 BUDGET REVIEWS - NON-DEPARTMENTAL (NOT IN PACKET)
Mr. Sarbaugh joined the committee members for presentation of the Non-Departmental Budgets. The committee members were informed there are two different non-departmental budgets. Department 90 includes the indirect cost that are under the County Board's purview and the other is for Department 99, which is for the indirect costs associated with IMRF, Social Security and the Debt Service payments. The contingency funds include the Merit pool funding as well as the amount retained for contractual costs for open positions. The County Board has a policy to not distribute the merit pool to the departments. They withhold the 2% projected growth. The departments do not receive these funds unless they show their budgets run low. The revenues for department 90 are from fees/charges are received from the vending machines, the tax sale and interest on the escrow accounts. All tax revenues flow into the General Fund. These funds are not distributed to the departments. The expenditures are for personnel, contractual services, commodities, capital outlay, debt service payments and operating transfers out. The committee members continued with a review of the revenues for Department 99. The income in this fund is from property taxes, sales tax, local use tax, 1/4% sales tax, state income tax, replacement person property tax, off track betting and video gaming tax. There is some small income from interest income. This department includes the revenue collected for the RTA sales tax fund, IMRF, Social Security and the debt certificate funds. They have now included a fiber optic conduit project fund. The committee members could see changes to the funds based on decisions from the County Board on how some of the Capital Project needs will be paid for. Currently the RTA funds are used for transportation projects. If the County Board decides to use a portion of these funds for Capital Projects, this fund will be adjusted.

Concern was voiced that they have not made a decision on the use of the RTA funds. It was stated they need to determine how the Capital Projects are going to be funded in order to include this information in this years budget information. Chairman Skala left committee at 9:55 AM. The last couple of pages include the debt certificate funds. Budgets are created for the debt service payments, from the General Fund. The funding does not sit in these funds. When the payments are due, funds are transferred into the accounts. Currently the Division of Transportation uses the RTA funds to pay for their debt service payments. Chairman Skala returned to committee at 9:58 AM. The Fiber Optic project budget was created for historical reporting. This account will fall off the County's book of record since the County does not have 100% ownership of this account. They will see the information within the budget but will be shown as a separate entity in quick books. The first page included with the handouts shows the detail line items and how those funds are expended and how they are tied to the budget categories. Contingent salaries are created for three positions. When an employee is on leave, this allows the departments to fill that position temporarily. These funds are rarely touched. The Finance and Audit Committee has allowed him to use a portion of these funds to supplement any shortages in the budgets. The 2% non-union wage increases are generally absorbed by the allowances that are held back. When you see in the budget Administrative increases, they are included as part of the merit pool. The contractual services area includes the cost for security in the Administration Building, lobbyist fees (though it was noted the County no longer has a lobbyist) this area allows staff to travel to address any lobbying efforts that may be needed. It was suggested this area be changed to legislative planning as they move forward. The agenda management system costs are included in this area as well. Mr. Christensen left committee at 10:09 AM. The amount funded to the MCEDC (McHenry County Economic Development Corporation) has remained flat. The budget was adjusted to remove the escalator in the contract. This area includes funding for the outside auditor's costs, professional services for the architect. This amount can be removed but has been included as a placeholder. Blue Cross Blue Shield funding includes the costs for the employee incentives. They have also included funding for recycling costs. The County pays for the monitors to be disposed of properly. Mr. Christensen returned to committee at 10:11 AM. Funding for 4H has been automatically rolled over into the budget. Concern was voiced that this agency did not come before a committee with their funding request. The committee members were reminded there was a suggestion to reduce their funding in the past, without success. The funding for the Convention and Visitor's Bureau was approved today. Support for the Soil and Water Conservation agency's annual funding has been included. If the fiber project support is approved through the supplemental process, these funds will be included. This would allow the budget to grow another $51,000 for a one time charge. The contingency fund remains at $400,000. They will need to review the budget for tech support as this area is to cover the costs for license agreements. The next contract is expected to be much higher so

they will need to address this issue. The vehicle contingency needs to be looked at as well. The amount funded in this area has not been increased since 2002. This limits the number of squad cars that can be purchased each year. The building improvement budget is used to cover small incidentals. The fund reserve currently stands at 5.9 months. They can see there is a slight decline of these funds as more items are being funded from the reserve. The committee members were reminded, when the highway department commits to a project all of the funding for the project is encumbered up front, even though they may not spend the money next year. Ms. Barnes informed the committee members that if the members need additional information on this issue, Mr. Young at the Division of Transportation can provide more details on this. Ms. McCann noted they can see each years project costs outlines in the five year transportation program. The Division of Transportation is looking at replacing more bridges, those project could possibly be moved further out. The committee members recommended the FY2016/2017 Non-Departmental budget be moved forward through the budget process, subject to changes.
9. OLD BUSINESS
1. Discussion: Aggregate Levy
At the previous committee meeting Mr. Smith and Mr. Wheeler wanted numbers on the cost to borrow for their Capital Project needs. Chairman Skala noted he spoke with Mr. Anderson regarding the desire to obtain this data while keeping their footprint at $3.4 million dollars per year.
The first sheet includes the $20.5 million current needs listed on the Capital budget list, this takes into consideration the use of the RTA sales tax money. The sheet shows the total payment for each year beginning in FY2018 through FY2022. All the debt would roll off in 2022. The second sheet includes information if the County should borrow from Valley Hi. The rate would be much higher if we borrow from ourselves. It would be cheaper to go to market to borrow but the County would lose its Aaa bond rating. If the County should borrow from Valley Hi, there would be less funding going to Valley Hi though Valley Hi would reap the interest from the loan. Some of the debt that is coming off the books could be used to help pay for the costs of the Capital Projects. There are various areas the funding could be pulled from. If the County should borrow $20.5 million dollars, they would use current debt that will be coming off the books to pay for the funds that are being borrowed. This amount would remain constant over the next twelve (12) years. It was questioned what would happen if we should sell Valley Hi. It was stated the County would still be obligated to pay back this loan. The debt would not go away though they could use the assets from the sale of Valley Hi to help pay down the debt. It was stated, the County has two options to pay for this need. Ms. Barnes stated they have more options that need to be considered. She noted that year to year there are more funds available so she believes these funds should be used to pay for these projects. She stated this way they could fund the projects as they go. Mr. Christensen left committee at 10:49 AM. Chairman Skala noted if we don't address the Capital Project list, the projects will not be completed until 2026. Ms. Barnes stated that we know some of the projects listed could be shifted to a later date. It was stated the County cannot fund all the projects without borrowing. Some of the projects fall under cost structure from funding not used to pay debt. The RTA fund would suffer a one time hit

with no other options to use more of these funds. Only three of the projects on the list qualify for the use of these funds. Mr. Christensen returned to committee at 10:53 AM. He questioned if the Aaa rating matters that much? He was informed only if they go out for a debt issuance. The County Board worked diligently to obtain their Aaa rating and they would like to retain this rating if possible. It was stated the reason for the downgrade is the result of the County Board to not take the CPI every year. It was stated the committee's objective is to borrow as little as possible. They need to create a budget stream for the future. The constituents of the County voted to fund Valley Hi so the voters think the taxes being collected will be used for Valley Hi. But, they are now considering using these funds to fund their capital projects. Concern was voiced that this will not be transparent to the taxpayers. The committee members were reminded, they are not "taking" from Valley Hi. The County is given an aggregate tax base that is spread between all the levy's. Ms. McCann left committee at 10:58 AM. The County will need to collect a greater levy this year than they did last year or they will lose Valley Hi funding forever. It was stated the focus appears to be directed towards taking a greater levy than the Board did last year. This ignores the Valley Hi large reserve. It was questioned why they don't borrow from the reserves? Ms. Barnes noted she would like to take the levy lower than last year. Ms. McCann returned to committee at 11:00 AM. To keep the Valley Hi bucket alive, they will need to put at least $1 in that bucket. If they only put $1 in that bucket, that is all they can put there going forward. The question to the County Board is, what do we do with the difference in the aggregate amount? It was stated, the County had an aggregate that was $2.75 million dollars less than the previous year. They were able to make their interest payments and pay their bills and the County functioned quite well. It was noted that Valley Hi ate into the reserves so they are drawing down. If the levy is not taken this year, $3 million dollars will have to be removed from the budget. Mr. Sarbaugh noted, that was the assumption he was given to work with. Ms. Barnes noted that the Finance and Audit Committee has not made that decision so she believes that may not happen. It was stated, the funds would have to be pulled out from Valley Hi. Mr. Sarbaugh voiced concern because the County would lose the growth it is entitled to. With revenues declining and costs going up the County needs to have the money to cover the cost of inflation. They need to consider all the alternatives. She stated, in her opinion, they can find the money to pay for the $2.75 million dollar difference. Ms. McCann noted the committee needs to take the new growth and decide whether they are going to take the aggregate levy for Valley Hi. If you do not take the extension, you lose the new growth. Chairman Skala noted if you want to capture the new growth you can always abate it. Mr. Christensen stated he would rater take it and abate it. Mr. Christensen was informed last year, on the board floor, they decided to not take it. It was stated that many of the County Board members do not understand this process. If you do not take the new growth you are putting the burden on the current taxpayers. It was stated you can take the full aggregate extension and then abate what you want.

Ms. Barnes voiced concern because what they are asking the taxpayer to do is for the County to collect more money from them than they did last year, not give the funding to Valley Hi and spend down the Valley Hi reserves. She stated the way this is being presented is unfair to everyone. The committee members were reminded McHenry County has an aging population. Most of the State Medicaid reimbursements have been cut in half so they need to have a funding stream to help this aging population or they will have to ship them elsewhere. Many people cannot afford to pay for this type of care. Most of the residents from Valley Hi have lived their whole life in McHenry County and paid taxes here. Mr. Sarbaugh questioned, as a single taxpayer, what services does he get from the County? He stated that Valley Hi offers him a better chance than having none. Mr. Smith questioned if this committee needs to come to a conclusion to take to a Committee of the Whole (COW) meetings, with a determination on whether they should borrow or not, use the extension, pay for the services from debt that is being paid down or pay as you go? Chairman Skala noted he does not believe the County Board will get a recommendation from this committee. The only consensus this committee has provided is to use a part of the RTA funding for the three projects discussed. The information will need to be fine tuned before we can take this information to a COW. It was stated it is hopeful they can get all their questions answered prior to taking this issue to the COW. The committee members were reminded the Finance and Audit Committee is responsible for providing a financial recommendation to the County Board. He still needs to be provided direction for the budget. Chairman Skala stated the financial side should drive how they pay for the project. If the committee tells staff there is only $2 million dollars to spend on projects each year, that is what they will need to do. There are projects that need to get done. The reality will depend on how they set up the revenue stream. Mr. Hartman noted what was presented by the Facilities Committee is based on when they thought the projects needed to be done. If the projects should be postponed, the County will incur additional maintenance costs. They will then need to continue to make an investment to maintain what isn't getting fixed. Ms. McCann noted there are many that do not understand the State is forcing a burden on all Nursing Homes. They need clarity of the increased costs for Valley Hi to justify taking the levy. Mr. Sarbaugh stated he believes the County Board has lost its vision of what the County has accomplished for the past four years. The County has used the aggregate to protect Valley Hi. The County has not raised the overall tax base and has worked within it means. The aggregate is used as a tool we have been given in order to shift the burden around. He stated, as a constituent he values Valley Hi and believes the cost that he is charged as a taxpayer is more of a benefit than a burden. It was stated the retired debt payments should be dedicated to the Capital Projects so they do not have to raise taxes in order to address our needs. At the end of five years, there will be a more clear picture regarding Valley Hi costs while at the same time keeping options available for future boards. It was stated we should use Valley Hi to our advantage. Concern was voiced that we should only use the Valley Hi funds to pay for Valley Hi expenses. Ms. McCann left committee at 11:30 AM. Mr. Christensen noted, if Valley Hi was in the red, they would need to have all the funding go to Valley Hi to address their needs. Since they do not need all the funding at this time, he would

recommend they put a small amount towards Valley Hi and use the rest to the County's advantage. Mr. Sarbaugh noted the taxpayers are not incurring any additional costs and they are not increasing the overall taxes. They handling their current expenses, while protecting Valley Hi. If the State should cut the Medicaid reimbursements this gives the County time to be proactive. This is a win/win for everyone. Mr. Christensen stated there is some flexibility in the timeline for what we are doing. We have acknowledgement of the plan. There are some that have a higher priority that others. His question, as a funding aspect, if we eliminate Valley Hi, without eliminating the levy, the big questions is, should we keep Valley Hi? It has been mentioned there are those that feel the nursing home should be gone, though there has not been a decision made by the County Board. The voters were previously asked if they wanted to retain the nursing home and the public voted in favor of it. This has not been discussed by the County Board yet. Chairman Skala stated his questions is, whether they want to put any funding into Valley Hi or not. If the majority of the board says they don't want any funding to go to Valley Hi, they won't have a nursing home in the future. Mr. Heisler stated these are the same discussions they had 25 years ago. Chairman Skala stated, if you vote against putting any funding into Valley Hi, Valley Hi will go away. Most of the County Board members do not understand that. If the Valley Hi levy goes away, the general fund would have to pay for Valley Hi. The County would go into debt keeping Valley Hi. Mr. Christensen stated it will be important to explain this correctly. Frustration was voiced they continue to talk about this issue without the committee making a formal decision. If you don't put any money in the Valley Hi bucket, Valley Hi will go away. The committee members were reminded, they do have supplemental requests that include items departments feel are urgent. It was stated decisions need to be made that go beyond the Valley Hi question. Mr. Heisler stated that the Finance and Audit needs to schedule a committee meeting with this as a single issue as a special meeting. Valley Hi has one year after they reduce the aggregate to get the aggregate back. They have to pick the highest aggregate from the last three years. It was stated though the County did not take the aggregate for Valley Hi, none of the residents saw the County gave them anything back. Taxes still increased. Many don't realize, if your neighbor protested their taxes, your taxes will probably go up. The tax burden relief the neighbor gets is shifted to others. Chairman Skala recommended a special meeting be scheduled for Monday, September 26, 2016 at 8:15 AM. The committee members agreed. The topic for the meeting will be for the committee to have a discussion on the funding of the County's Capital Plan.

Chairman Skala noted he created a flow chart so they can answer questions that can lead them down certain paths. There are a lot of yes/no questions that will need to be answered in order for them to obtain these answers. Chairman Skala questioned if any funding should go into the Valley Hi bucket. He stated he started with this area because if they don't want to put any funding there, that area would go away. Ms. Barnes requested Mr. Sarbaugh explain this as she believes there may be questions, if that is true. It was questioned, if they only put $1 in the Valley Hi bucket, would that protect our ability to collect more for Valley Hi next year. Mr. Sarbaugh responded, "no". It was stated this is very confusing. The committee members were informed, the Statute reads "if we don't take the levy (which is what the County Board did) the County has one year only to look back and take the highest aggregate extension from the past three years. If only $1 is included for Valley Hi, then the remainder has to be a loan to a specific fund or it can be abated back to the taxpayers. Mr. Sarbaugh noted, if you put $2,749,999 million into the Capital bucket and then put $1 in the Valley Hi bucket, the Valley Hi levy will remain in effect. If the Board should decide to not take the Valley Hi levy again next year, the Board then would have one year to look back to keep the levy alive. The committee members were informed they have requested research to see if we can offer a rebate to the taxpayers from the Valley Hi reserve. This way the taxpayers would not see an increase in their tax bill. At this time it is unknown if this would be allowed, though calls for information has been made. It was stated this information will need to be explained in simple terms as this is a confusing issue. Chairman Skala questioned if a small amount should be put into the Valley Hi levy? If so, how much? He informed the committee members he believes Valley Hi was $700,000 in debt this year. $300,000 in debt last year. He stated for practical purposes, they should put a minimum amount in. He suggested they put in the lowest amount practical. The Valley Hi reserves are being spent down. The facility is now ten years old and will see expenses for the facility increase. The reserve at Valley Hi should be at a six month cash reserve. The Operating Board has suggested the reserve for Valley Hi increased to one year in order to address lag payments made by the State. The State is currently one year behind in their payments. Ms. Barnes stated she would be in favor of spending down the Valley Hi reserve. It was questioned how much it costs to run Valley Hi each month. It was stated the average cost is $1 million dollars per month. Chairman Skala noted the $2.75 million dollars would include a minimum amount going to Valley Hi. Chairman Skala then questioned if they want to include a portion of the funding for Capital Projects? He again questioned if any part should be used for Capital Projects? The Valley Hi money would be collected to use on the Capital Projects. It is felt this could be justified though this is a very complicated issue to explain. Ms. Barnes stated our reality is that they should not collect for Valley Hi since they have such a high reserve. Right now the budget is assuming they are collecting the funds for Valley Hi, though there are some that do not want to do this. Mr. Sarbaugh reminded the committee members that you won't see a Valley Hi levy on the tax bill as it is of an overall aggregate extension. Chairman Skala noted that we have a $2.75 million dollar extension they need to decide whether they take this or not. If we don't take it, it will go away forever. If the extension is taken they can spread the amount between the various "buckets", put the funds within the General Fund to be used for the Capital Plan needs or collect the funding and abate it back to the taxpayers. Ms. Barnes stated they also need to look at the Capital Project Plan and determine when they expect to incur the expenses. She stated that not all the expenses are incurred up front. She stated that while keeping that in mind, if they are looking at other options, they can look at the budget and the County's own reserve, become more frugal in budgeting in areas that are not being spent and review the supplemental requests and transportation funds in order to pay for their needs. She stated she is

opposed to borrowing for these projects as she feels there are ways to do a better job with the budget in order to address our needs. She stated they do not need to determine all their funding needs for the projects at this time but can consider a lower amount to borrow. It was suggested they review a timeline of when they expect their needs to be brought forward for consideration. The information provided so far has not included any payment options. Mr. Christensen left committee at 9:02 AM. Chairman Skala noted they included payment reductions for the debt footprint isn't costing any more each year. It was stated if they do go out for bonds, they would like to do so all at one time. Ms. Barnes stated if they consider going out for bonds they also need to pay for some of the capital plan from the reserves. Ms. McCann voiced caution as we have not been adding to the reserve so it has not been increasing. They are also paying for some project already from the reserves so there is no additional funding being generated to put back into the reserves. Chairman Skala stated, they need to determine if they will take the full aggregate extension, a portion of it or none of it. If it is not taken, it will go away forever. Mr. Smith stated if they take it all with the consideration to abate it, it leaves us with more options so they can look closer at the issue next year. Ms. Barnes stated she believes they should not take it. Ms. McCann stated they should take the extension and abate it. Mr. Wheeler stated they should not take it. Ms. McCann voiced caution as their decision will have a long term affect. This is a tool that can be used, with the possibility of abating some or all of it. The committee members were reminded that costs in the County do not go down. Expenditures increase approximately 10% per year so they have to look at this issue long term, not just for one year. It was stated they do not want to put the County into the same situation the State is in. Mr. Smith left committee at 9:02 AM. New growth is approximately $600,000 per year. This amount is spread between all the funds and does not go to just the General Fund. The public understands costs for the consumers go up each year. It is not irresponsible for the County to protect the services being provided while also eliminating unnecessary funding. Mr. Smith and Mr. Christensen returned to committee at 9:09 AM. Mr. Christensen noted he would take the aggregate and abate it. Mr. Sarbaugh stated that if the County Board should abate the aggregate a Resolution will be brought forward directing the County Clerk to strike the tax and at the end abate the amount back, before finalizing the tax bill. Ms. Barnes and Mr. Wheeler noted they could support that. Ms. Barnes questioned if we would collect a higher amount than discussed. Chairman Skala noted if they take it back it would be for the $2.75 million dollars. The calculations will show they extension but it will be abated back. This will not show up as a line item on the tax bills. The full amount is not "technically" taken. They take the full amount in order to capture the new growth though the amount taken will be abated back immediately. Ms. Barnes voiced concern regarding the new board taking office immediately after this action is taken. Chairman Skala recommended they take this action to the current board. Ms. McCann noted this is needed as part of this years budget. In order to do the capital projects they would have to borrow. It was questioned, if they should abate the taxes can we still do an internal borrowing from Valley Hi? It was stated they can but would still have to go out for an issuance. Whether they borrow from

ourselves or go out to market, they would still have to issue debt. If the County should borrow from Valley Hi, the interest rates will be higher though the interest payments would go back to Valley Hi. It was stated that using the aggregate extension saves the taxpayers money. The committee will have to review what is the best option. Mr. Sarbaugh noted that if they go out for a debt issuance, they will still need to determine how they expect to pay for the debt. The County is currently at a 5.9 month reserve with it slipping towards 5.5 months. Once the County is close to a 4 month reserve they will have to issues tax anticipation warrants to pay their bills until the property taxes are received. The committee members were reminded they have already identified projects expected to come from the reserve. If they take the full abatement, there will not be any funding available to put towards the Capital Plan. Mr. Sarbaugh questioned where he is expected to take funding from to pay for the costs of the Capital Plan, if the County is to borrow to pay for these costs. The committee members were informed that Chairman Skala, Mr. Sarbaugh and Mr. Austin met with representatives at the Northwest Herald to explain this issue and the ramifications and options to address the County needs. They asked a lot of questions though there was not a lot of understanding on this issue. It may be difficult to get an understanding on this issue. The County Board members need to understand the ramifications of their decisions. It was felt that a better understanding could be obtained if they write an editorial on this issue. Concern was voiced they will have a hard time explaining this issue to the constituents. It is troubling they can't explain this issue in an understandable manner, which is a problem for all of them. Ms. McCann noted it is also very troubling that many do not understand the issues facing seniors that live in our County. Mr. Wheeler stated he would like to see them take the aggregate and then abate it back to the taxpayers for the full amount. Mr. Christensen questioned if they could take the aggregate back but only abate a portion of the funds. Ms. McCann questioned how much is needed to spend for the Capital Plan and debt payments, they may incur, for next year. Ms. Barnes said they should take the full aggregate and rebate the full amount back to the taxpayers. Mr. Smith stated he does not believe they should take back the full aggregate but should abate all they do take back to the taxpayers. Mr. Christensen stated he is for the abatement though they need to take the new growth. Chairman Skala stated he believes they should take the aggregate and not abate anything but use the funding for the Capital Projects. Chairman Skala questioned if the County should use future CPI to fund the Capital projects? He stated he is only talking about next year's Capital Program. This would set up a revenue stream to go to take to the full County Board on how to pay for the needs. They will need at least $16 million dollars to pay for the Capital Projects next year. Some of the RTA funds can be used to pay for a portion of their needs. That leaves $13.2 million that is still needed. Ms. Barnes noted that makes the assumption the projects identified will be paid for next year. If the County Board determines they do not have the funding to address these costs they will need to prioritize their needs first. It was questioned what funding amount is needed for FY2017? It was stated it will depend on the decisions made regarding the Annex B facility. They could incur additional expenses for this facility if they don't address the issues with this facility. The County could incur $6.5 million to $11 million dollars in additional expenses to address the Annex B facility issues. The County will need to spend at least $7 million dollars out of next years budget to address our immediate needs. If they should purchase a building, those costs would come out of next years budget, though some of the costs would be spread out over various fiscal years. Chairman Skala stated he is not ready to commit to the use of the CPI to fund the Capital Projects. The committee members agreed to use a portion of the RTA funds to pay for the three projects identified. The committee members will need to explain what that means since they will be changing County Board policy in order to do this. A resolution would be brought forward that only includes the three projects identified. They will need to include information regarding the deviation from their

current policy. They do not want to leave open this area for use in the future. The committee members requested a copy of this policy for review. It was stated they thought there was an amendment to this policy made already. This would override their current policy in order to pay for these projects only. So everyone is clear, the RTA funding will be used to pay for the Fire Alarm, jail door system and squad cars video camera system needs. It was stated the current mobile radio system will become ineffective in 2018. The cost for this project will be close to $800,000+. This may be a project they want to include in this funding. All the RTA funded projects are projects that need to get done next year. These are the only projects that qualify for use of the RTA funding. Chairman Skala reiterated, the majority of the committee members want to take the full aggregate and rebate it all back to the taxpayers. The committee members agreed. Chairman Skala reminded the committee members the total for all the Capital projects is $20.5 million dollars. He questioned how the committee members feel about borrowing from the Valley Hi reserves to address their needs? This will result in a lower cost for the issuance of the debt but they will incur a higher rate, which would go to ourselves. They cannot touch the funding though it will keep Valley Hi afloat longer. Ms. McCann questioned if the County can afford to pay this debt back with funding from debts that will be paid off? The committee members were reminded the information sheets shows the repayment of debt by using the current debt footprint, over the next ten years. That loads up the last four years. If the County Board should consider not taking the CPI and the revenues do not increase, the General Fund will have to make the payments. Concern was voiced that expenses continue to rise and they will have no way to pay for their expenses. As the loans get paid off, they can use the relief to cover their other increased expenses. Chairman Skala noted if they use the debt that comes off the books and uses the $2.75 aggregate to pay for the Capital Plan, they can have the plan completely paid off within five years. His concern is, they can pay as they go but they are committing 10 years to a Capital Plan and if something happens, they will not have the revenue stream to pay this expense which will result in the deferred list growing. They will continue to chase their tail and never get caught up. Mr. Wheeler noted there are always issues that arise they do not anticipate. For him, they have identified a revenue stream while being fiscally responsible. Ms. Barnes stated though she agrees there are other ways to address their needs. Seven million dollars is needed for next year, it was questioned how this changes if they borrow from Valley Hi. It was stated there would be less pay back and this will be something the residents can follow and the initial costs will be less. Ms. Barnes questioned what would be wrong with just borrowing $7 million dollars to address the needs for next year. She stated this will limit their borrowing to $7 million dollars. Chairman Skala noted there is nothing wrong with that suggestion except all the projects will not be funded and they did not want to incur the additional costs to obtain several issuance's for bonds. She stated she would feel more comfortable will the issuance of bonds for just $7 million dollars for next year. Mr. Christensen left committee at 10:04 AM. Chairman Skala noted this is a valid request though if the County has to borrow more, it will cost another $130,000 to do another bond issuance. Ms. Barnes stated they say we need $20.5 million dollars to address their needs though this is not a true number. They have not decided what they are doing regarding Annex B. Ms. Barnes stated she believes $7 million dollars is very acceptable and believes this amount is more appropriate. Mr. Christensen returned to committee at 10:07 AM. Chairman Skala noted he was not focusing on the borrowing part as they can accomplish that post budget. Today he would like to discuss the $400,000 delta for the next fiscal year. He stated his biggest question is regarding the aggregate extension and how to address their needs for the next fiscal year. Answers regarding bonds are not needed prior to the budget.

The $7 million dollars identified is just an estimate. Bids are needed in order to obtain the true costs. When the budget is set, they will have the true costs for the projects. Today they need answers surrounding the aggregate discussion top present to the County Board. They do not expect a decision regarding borrowing at this time. Now they need to get a true understanding of the overall aggregate discussion, which is a big part of their needs for the future. Mr. Wheeler stated he would be in favor of going out for bonds quicker since rates are so low. It is expected the interest rates will increase by December. He stated he would rather borrow now, with a lower interest rate than waiting for higher costs to kick in, in the future. Right now, they have provided ways to pay back this loan. The committee members were reminded, if they go out for new bonds the County's bond rating will go down one to two notches which will affect the interest rate the County can get. The County will get re-rated prior to borrowing. Mr. Sarbaugh voiced concern and stated he is trying to understand their logic. They are concerned with using the Valley Hi levy because they say it causes mistrust by our constituent but you are not asking the taxpayers if they want us to incur additional costs. He questioned how they segregate the difference. The taxpayers have no say in their decisions. Ms. Barnes stated her residents have stated they do not want any heavy borrowing though some will be needed. Mr. Sarbaugh noted borrowing would not be needed if we are allowed to use the tools that have been provided by the State. The County can fix their issues without any borrowing or hurting services all at the same time they are protecting the services all families will need in the future. Conservative planning is necessary to look at what could happen without adding additional pain to the taxpayers. As a finance person and taxpayer he is not sure they are doing justice by not allowing the County to use the tools provided. He stated, the proposed decision will not hurt their current life style, but if they should do what is being proposed the County won't be able to address their issues without there being any increased costs to taxpayers down the road. He stated there is no advantage to risking their need to cut services down the road. Committee members need to be very thoughtful and prudent to address the County's future needs. It is a struggle to understand how to explain that. Chairman Skala noted for every $1 million dollar that go back to the taxpayers, there is a $8.05 savings for them. Chairman Skala noted, based on their conversation. The goal for the Committee of the Whole (COW) is to take the aggregate and recommend they abate the amount back to the taxpayers. Chairman Skala noted he will run through some scenarios they discussed today and inform the rest of the Board of the committee members recommendation. He will also push to finance the Capital Program, which will allow the County to take the new growth. Ms. McCann stated they need to address the budget policy because of the use of the RTA funds and abatement recommendation. All the board members need to understand the budget policy as well as provide direction to staff on the Capital Project Plan so all understand how they track the capital expenses properly and how they address this issue year after year. She noted they cannot plan financing around flexible plans. She stated she would like to know if they can finance, as a capital lease, for Annex B and if so, how would this be paid for. She also questioned how come the Division of Transportation supplemental requests have not been included in McDOT's Capital Plan? Mr. Sarbaugh informed the committee members the Division of Transportation has a five year plan for which they are using all special funds and highway funds to pay for. The current policy allows the department to use the RTA funds to pay for the items in the plan. A resolution will need to be brought forward changing the policy. Chairman Skala noted he will work with Chairman Gottemoller to schedule the Committee of the Whole. Ms. McCann stated she is not sure walking through this information will be productive since it

is so complicated. They need to understand why this recommendation is being made. This will be part of their conversation. It was suggested they provide a list of recommendations and how they came to their decisions. Chairman Skala stated if the majority of the County Board members want to abate the aggregate, it only leave two options for borrowing. Mr. Smith stated he does not think a 100% abatement was decided on, as this was only a decision made by four members. Chairman Skala stated he heard the majority of the committee members recommend to abate the aggregate and take the new growth. Mr. Sarbaugh informed the committee members the new growth happens before the abatement. Mr. Wheeler left committee at 10:34 AM. Chairman Skala stated additional discussion will take place at the COW meeting as there are enough diverse opinions on this issue that he is unsure they will get any strong feelings to do this one way. He is afraid they may go around and around with this conversation and they need a decision on this issue. They want to avoid going to the board meeting without there being a decision made on this issue ahead of time. He stated he does not want to continue to debate this issue on the board floor. He stated by providing a good plan with compromises all around it is hopeful they can come to some agreement ahead of time. Ms. McCann noted this is a very complicated issue to explain. There are many on the board that need to reminded about the whole capital plan with realistic costs so they can look at the information in order to make informed decisions. She stated the Capital Project Plan needs have to be included as part of their discussion as there are a lot of huge costs expected to come before the County Board in the next few years that they have to take care of and plan for.

RESOLUTION DOC ID: 5116 D
Page 2
TO: McHenry County Board FROM: Dennis Sandquist DATE: October 13, 2016 SUBJECT: Resolution Creating a Water Resources Specialist Position Grade 10E within the
Department of Planning and Development, Water Resources Division in Fiscal Year 2017
Board / Committee Action Requested:
Authorize the creation of a Water Resources Specialist position grade 10E within the
Department of Planning and Development Water Resources Division in fiscal year 2017.
Background and Discussion:
The County Board 2016 Strategic Plan includes a recommendation to refocus attention on the
Water Resources Action Plan (WRAP) and a goal to create a Water Resources Specialist
Position. Staff has been directed to create a job description and work plan for the position. In
April, the P&D and NERC committees reviewed the county's adopted Water Resource Action
Plan (WRAP) and past and present water resource management activities. Staff prepared the
attached job description and work plan based on the discussion and direction provided by the
committees.
The Human Resources Department evaluated the position using the County's Job Evaluation
Plan and assigned the position a salary grade 10E. The attached cost analysis was prepared
utilizing the New Position Request form for FY2016. The cost analysis is based on the minimum
salary of the position grade and an average cost for the County's health insurance options.
At its June 9th meeting, the F&A Committee tabled this resolution to its July 14th
meeting and directed staff to return the item to the P&D and NERC Committee for further
discussion regarding funding the position including finding the funding within the
current department budget or to provide other possible options for funding the position
within the general fund budget.
The P&D Committee discuss this item at its June 28th meeting. Members of NERC were
invited to attend the meeting. P&D considered a staff memorandum that outlined the
following possible areas to cut within the department budget: MCSEEP, long range
planning and special studies, historic preservation and agricultural conservation
easement commission staffing, groundwater well and stream gage monitoring,
consulting engineers, and general commodities and contractuals. The Committee also
received information that the FY2017 budget will have reductions based on the County
Board's recent decision to suspend IMRF benefits for board members and also at least
one general fund department has proposed eliminating several staff positions. The

Packet Pg. 25
Resolution (ID # 5116) Meeting of October 13, 2016
Updated: 7/14/2016 11:42 AM by Mary Haines D Page 3
Committee also discussed the possibility of reducing the water resources specialist
position to part-time (20 hours/week) to eliminate IMRF and health insurance benefits.
The P&D Committee decided against eliminating P&D Department functions. The
committee decided (by a vote of 4-1) to amend the resolution to specify that the position
be created in the FY2017 department roster and that funding be provided during the
FY2017 budget process based on cost saving from elimination of county board member
IMRF benefits and reduction in staff headcount in general fund departments as proposed
by department managers.
Impact on Human Resources:
This resolution will increase the County's employee headcount in 2017 by one full time
employee.
Impact on Budget (Revenue; Expenses, Fringe Benefits):
The annual salary and benefits for a Water Resources Specialist grade 10E position are
projected at $74,273 including $48,599 in salary, $8,694 for IMRF and FICA, and $16,980 in
health insurance costs to the County.
Impact on Capital Expenditures:
This position will have no impact on capital expenditures. The Department has adequate
computer and office equipment for use by the Water Resources Specialist.
Impact on Physical Space:
This position will have no impact on physical space. The Department has adequate office space
to accommodate a Water Resources Specialist.
Impact on Other County Departments or Outside Agencies:

are attempting to implement policy and programs to protect the County's ground and surface
water supply and quality. These agencies include the McHenry County Division of

TO: McHenry County Board FROM: Nicole Gattuso DATE: October 13, 2016 SUBJECT: Resolution Authorizing Entering into a GIS Enterprise License Agreement
Renewal with Environmental System Research Institute (ESRI) Inc in the GIS Department FY2016 Budget
Board / Committee Action Requested:
This request is for the approval of a resolution authorizing McHenry County to enter into an ESRI Enterprise License Agreement Renewal.
Background and Discussion:
The County has been operating ESRI’s GIS software for over the last 16 years. A support contract needs to be renewed each year to maintain our current level of support and GIS software. The Purchasing Department conducted a bid for these services and ESRI was the only respondent. For the fiscal year 2016, the cost of the agreement is $125,000. This amount has been planned for in the current budget. For the fiscal year 2017, the cost will be $130,000. The Enterprise License Agreement with ESRI will have a total cost of $255,000 for the next two years. In order to be fully licensed for our current demands it is necessary for McHenry County to enter into an Enterprise License Agreement with ESRI. This would allow for the GIS Department to support the additional hardware/software needs for GIS web applications and all other departments.
ESRI GIS software is the core software currently used for all County GIS activities including data management, web applications, and desktop analysis. The ESRI Enterprise License Agreement would cover all licenses for all departments within the County. This includes all desktop and server licenses that are necessary for the County to implement GIS initiatives.
Impact on Human Resources:
N/A
Impact on Budget (Revenue; Expenses, Fringe Benefits):
The ESRI GIS Software Maintenance Agreement will impact the Geographic
Information Systems FY16 budget, OCA 650001-4321 (Computer Program

RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING A FY2016 PAYMENT FOR AN APPROVED CHANGE ORDER IN CONNECTION WITH THE RADIO DISPATCH CONSOLE REPLACEMENT PROJECT
WHEREAS, on June 2, 2015, the County Board of McHenry County, Illinois approved Resolution
R-201506-32-188 authorizing an agreement with Motorola Solutions (State of Illinois contract) for the
purchase of radio dispatch consoles (MCC7500), Nice Logging, integration of the County overlay system
with the Statewide Starcom system, and implementation of a microwave backhaul system (collectively
referred to as the 'Project') at a cost not to exceed $1,707,031; and
WHEREAS, the costs for said Project are to be covered over a two year period, with fiscal year
2016 accounting for $853,515.50 due on June 23, 2016 and $878,011.39 due on June 23, 2017; and
WHEREAS, to ensure redundancy of the dispatch system in the event the T1 line should fail
between the County and Downers Grove, the County Board subsequently approved Resolution R-
201605-32-123 which authorized a change order to the project at an additional cost of $8,767.60; and
WHEREAS, Resolution R-201605-32-123 expressly stated that the additional change order cost
is to be paid with the final project payment in FY2017 and this is contrary to the contract agreement which
stipulates that half of the project payment is to be made in FY2016; and
WHEREAS, in order to make required payment of $4,383.30 in FY2016 and deviate from the
payment provisions stated in Resolution R-201605-32-123, amended authorization shall be required.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, by this County Board of McHenry County, Illinois that
the payment provisions incorporated in Resolution R-201605-32-123 are hereby amended to authorize a
payment of $4,383.30, representing one half of the approved change order, to occur in FY2016 through
OCA 900020-6000 (Non-Departmental - Capital Projects); and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the County Clerk is hereby authorized to distribute a certified
copy of this Resolution to Sheriff, the Director of Purchasing, the County Auditor, the Associate County

Page 2
TO: McHenry County Board FROM: Peter Austin DATE: October 13, 2016 SUBJECT: Resolution Authorizing a FY2016 Payment for an Approved Change Order in
Connection with the Radio Dispatch Console Replacement Project
Board / Committee Action Requested: Adoption of a resolution authorizing a 2016 payment
for an approved change order to the radio dispatch console replacement and related system
upgrades project.
Background and Discussion: On June 2, 2015, the McHenry County Board adopted
Resolution R-201506-32-188 which authorized an agreement with Motorola Solutions for the
replacement of radio dispatch consoles, Nice Logging, integration of the County overlay system
with the StarComm system and the implementation of a microwave back haul system. The total
approved project amount was $1,707,031.00 plus financing charges which was to paid in two
installments spread over fiscal years 2016 and 2017. Subsequently, on May 3, 2016, the
McHenry County Board adopted Resolution R-201605-32-123 which authorized approval of a
change order in the amount of $8,767.60 to provide redundancy in the event the T1 lines failed.
This resolution expressly stated that the change order payment would be made in FY2017 in
conjunction with the final project payment. However, the project contract stipulates that 1/2 half
of the project payment would be made in FY2016 and that would include half of the approved
change order amount ($4,383.80). This is contrary to the provisions of R-201605-32-123 and
therefore, authorization is necessary to allow for half of the change order payment to be made in
FY2016.
Payment 1 of the radio dispatch console replacement project in the amount of $853,516 has
already been made through OCA 900020-6000 (Non-Departmental - Capital Projects). A review
of this line item shows a remaining balance of $54,641.50 and there is a pending encumbrance
of $49,420 for the Government Center Fire Alarm Upgrade Consultant which would leave an
available balance of $5,221.50. No further encumbrances are known or expected and
therefore, there is sufficient budget remaining in OCA 900020-6000 to absorb this additional
expenditure without requiring a budget line item transfer or emergency appropriation.
Impact on Human Resources: None.
Impact on Budget (Revenue; Expenses, Fringe Benefits): None. This amount ($4,383.80)
can be absorbed in the current budget.
Impact on Capital Expenditures: None. This is an administrative change to the project.

201601-32-023 authorizing the Sheriff's Office to move SCAAP Grant dollars into a line item for
professional services. This allowed the Sheriff's office to work with Wold and Latta Tech to do
a security system analysis and develop design and bid specs for the upgrade project. This
project is also on the county's capital improvement plan and has been identified as one of the
projects to be funded by the county's RTA funds. MCSO worked with Purchasing and County
Admin and sent for requests to bid (bid #16-48) to twenty (20) vendors and received five (5)
bids. Southern Folgers Detention Equipment Co was the lowest responsible bidder for all work
outlined including alternate 1 and 2 identified in the bid request.
Impact on Human Resources: None
Impact on Budget (Revenue; Expenses, Fringe Benefits): The County Board has identified
RTA funds as the funding source for this project at $2,317,300 with a completion date of May
31, 2017.
Impact on Capital Expenditures: This project is identified on the capital plan.
Impact on Physical Space: None
Impact on Other County Departments or Outside Agencies: Facilities has been involved in
this process.
Conformity to Board Ordinances, Policies and Strategic Plan: Yes.

and solicit bids for this work in accordance with the McHenry County Purchasing Ordinance. In
addition to the public notification, the Request for Bid was sent directly to eleven prospective
bidders and two bids were received. Crowne Industries of Streamwood, Illinois submitted the
lowest responsive responsible bid in the amount of $65,700.

RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE USE OF THE REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION AUTHORITY (RTA) QUARTER CENT SALES TAX FUND FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF THE
GOVERNMENT CENTER FIRE ALARM SYSTEM, THE JAIL SECURITY/DOOR SYSTEM, AND THE PURCHASE OR LEASE OF SQUAD CAR VIDEO CAMERAS FOR THE
SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT AT A TOTAL COST OF $3,282,500
WHEREAS, on January 18, 2008 the Illinois Legislature adopted Public Act 95-708 (70 ILCS
3615/4.03.3) which allowed for the collar counties of Cook County to collect an additional quarter cent sales tax from all retail sales generated within the respective county; and
WHEREAS, it was/is the intent of the Illinois Legislature that this new quarter cent sales tax be
used to fund much needed transportation/transit improvements and public safety initiatives in the collar counties; and
WHEREAS, on August 5, 2008 the County Board of McHenry County, Illinois passed Resolution
R-200808-12-210 authorizing a policy on the utilization of the new quarter cent sales tax funds, which included the following language: The purpose of this policy is to establish a priority of the utilization of the revenue generated by a quarter cent sales tax by the McHenry County Board; to provide a means to review and adjust the policy from time to time; and, to determine the appropriate accounting for the sources and uses of the funds. The Policy further states: The McHenry County Board intends that the funds generated by the quarter cent sales tax will be used for the purposes of funding the McHenry County Board’s approved long-range transportation plan; and
WHEREAS, the policy also includes a Policy Review section that reads: The McHenry County
Board shall review and affirm this policy annually as part of the annual budget process of the County Board. Any changes to be made to this policy shall originate in the Transportation Committee and the Finance & Audit Committee and shall be submitted to the McHenry County Board for a vote; and
WHEREAS, the County Board has determined the following items have risen to a level of
urgency for being replaced and meet the qualification as public safety initiatives that would allow for funding from the Regional Transportation Authority (RTA) quarter cent sales tax funds:
Project Description FY 2017
Gov’t Center Fire Alarm System Replacement $570,000 Jail Security/Door System Replacement $2,300,000 Replacement of Video Cameras (Purchase/Lease?) $412,500 Total Funding Needs $3,282,500
WHEREAS, to accommodate the shift in RTA funds from transportation projects to safety
projects, changes to the County’s 2016 to 2020 Transportation Program will be necessary; and WHEREAS, after healthy discussions by the Transportation and Finance & Audit Committees, it
is their recommendation that the County Board approve utilizing a total amount of $3,282,500 of the RTA quarter cent sales tax to fund the three (3) public safety projects as shown above for fiscal year 2017.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, by this County Board of McHenry County, Illinois that it

SCHEDULED
RESOLUTION DOC ID: 5480
Page 3
TO: McHenry County Board FROM: Ralph Sarbaugh DATE: October 13, 2016 SUBJECT: Resolution Authorizing the Use of the Regional Transportation Authority (RTA)
Quarter Cent Sales Tax Fund for the Replacement of the Government Center Fire Alarm System, the Jail Security/Door System, and the Purchase or Lease of Squad Car Video Cameras for the Sheriff's Department at a Total Cost of $3,282,500
Board / Committee Action Requested: Approval to utilize Regional Transportation Authority (RTA) quarter cent sales tax funds for the replacement of the Government Center Fire Alarm System, the Jail Security/Door System, and the purchase or lease of Video Cameras for the Sheriff's squad cars in amount not to exceed $3,282,500 over a two year period. Background and Discussion: The County Board has been made aware of the need to replace the Government Center Fire Alarm System, the Jail Security/Door System, and Portable Radios (utilized by the Sheriff, the Division of Transportation, and other departments). The Government Center Fire Alarm System and the Jail Security/Door System have had several operational issues, placing the general public, inmates and staff in possible life threatening danger, along with placing additional burden on the County's budget for repair costs. The Video Cameras used by the Sheriff's patrol officers in their squad vehicles have been failing due to the age of the equipment. Currently there are only 8 cameras functioning in vehicles, causing concern for the officers safety. All three (3) of these projects qualify as public safety needs and can be funded from the RTA quarter cent sales tax funds. The Transportation and Finance & Audit Committees are recommending the use of these funds to cover the costs of the needed replacements, utilizing funds the County has, and delaying the need to issue debt. Impact on Human Resources: N/A Impact on Budget (Revenue; Expenses, Fringe Benefits): If approved, a resolution will be presented for each project, creating the budget to account for the project cost. Impact on Capital Expenditures: All three projects will be considered Capital Expenditures. Impact on Physical Space: N/A Impact on Other County Departments or Outside Agencies: May possibly delay the start of a planned Transportation project. Conformity to Board Ordinances, Policies and Strategic Plan: Yes
