From: Chief Steve S. Balinski
Date: December 11,2009
Subject: Eskape
The following is submitted to your attention to help clarify some concerns that were
addressed at the last Board meeting in reference to the above topic.
Uniform Personnel
In assessing the appropriate number of officers required to provide a security detail at any
establishment in the Village, the following considerations roust be evaluated:
1) The amount of people attending the event
2) The age group of attendees
3) The location of the event
4) The time frame of the event
5) The clientele that will attend the event
6) The potential impact—cause/effect on the affected area(neighborhoods,
businesses,parking lots,traffic, etc...)
7) The safety of individuals who attend
8) The safety of Police Officers
9) The safety of the operator and associated staff
10)Potential criminal activity
11)Research (past experiences with other law enforcement agencies)
12)Professional opinions of Police staff
13)Policies
14)Community policing factors
15)Police response
Recommendation
Based upon the assessment of all the considerations listed above, a minimum of two
uniform officers will be required to work this"special detail."To compromise this
direction will negatively impact the safety of the attendees, safety to officers working the
special detail and the community(neighborhoods and businesses). In conducting research
with my fellow colleagues and my professional staff,it is recommended that a uniform
presence is a practical approach in addressing problems that are inherent to a Dance Club
atmosphere. This Police Department/Village has always been pro-active when dealin 4

with community safety issues and this security recommendations subscribes to this
f philosophy.
In fairness to any operator that requires or solicits Police assistance in a special detail
capacity,we are willing to re-evaluate and review any recommended plan given the
circumstances presented. A recent example of this process involved the OTB
establishment on Milwaukee Avenue. We adjusted the amount of time officers were
required to provide traffic and security. As we move through a"learning curve"with the
Dance Hall concept, continue evaluations will occur that will include:
a. The need for an uniform presence
b. The number of officers required
c. The time frame officers are required to be present
Past practices in law enforcement would indicate that a uniform presence is a deterrent to
crime. This Police Department has established a professional reputation with our
community members by enhancing our community policing practices that include"walk
and talk"programs and active involvement in community events. I would encourage
officers to continue this practice, especially at a Dance Club environment.
Special Duty
As indicated, the established special duty rate covers the"cost of doing business."This is
a revenue-neutral rate and is based upon the total compensation package associated with
an officer's salary,health insurance,training, equipment, and maintenance costs of the
vehicle and fuel expenses.Another consideration that we evaluated is what other law
enforcement agencies charge for similar services (see attached).
The coordination of our special duty assignments is coordinated through the Deputy
Chief of Operations. We ask that our vendors provide at a minimum of fourteen days
notice to this agency. The basis for this request is based upon an officer's average forty
hour work week, mandated court appearances throughout the week and required monthly
proficiency trainings. We cannot neglect an officer's quality of life with their family and
friends.
We cannot and will not assign officers scheduled for their daily work assignments to
cover special details. This practice would compromise Village police coverage and our
response times to the residents of Buffalo Grove.
We do not employ part-time or auxiliary officers.
We have established an excellent working partnership with the following vendors over
the years. I believe the oldest vendor that we have provided special duty services is St.
Mary Church. This service has been provided every weekend for the past twenty five
years. Listed are the names of several community groups that use our special detail
}
services, Aptakisic Jr. High School, Arlington Toyota, Buffalo Grove High School,
f
Cooper Jr. High, IHOP, Congregation B'nai Shalom, Congregation Beth Judea,
Congregation Beth AM, Meridean Middle School and Schwaben Center/Grove Banquets.
Recommendation
The established special rate is fair and consistent with other agencies and covers the
compensation costs associated with a police officer's salary. The threshold rate of a
Sergeant's overtime rate provides an average balance between a police officers overtime
rate and rates that could be assigned to a Commander or Deputy Chief position. Any
sworn officer can participate in special duty assignments. First line officers and Sergeants
are given"first rights."On occasion, Command staff personnel have worked special
details and their rate of pay is capped off at the Sergeant's overtime rate. I would
envision that given the number of times an officers presence is required at the Eskape
Dance Club,members of my Command Staff would express an interest. The tracking of
one rate for"special details"in our payroll system is a very efficient practice.
Palicy
We have a very defined and extensive policy that sets forth guidelines and definitions to
governing secondary employment of department employees (see attached—General
Order A-66). When an officer is employed and such employment is conditioned upon the
actual or potential use of law enforcement powers, this employment falls under the
definition of Special Duty Employment. General Order A-66 prohibits any police officer
to work"secondary employment"that appears in an official police uniform and disallows
an individual to avail himself/herself to police equipment or official police data through
LEADS or our police information management system.
Recommendation
Police officers that work for the Village can only work in a"special duty" assignment
under the guidelines of General Order A-66. This policy is in compliance of nationally
accredited police standards and serves in the best interest of the officer and the Village of
Buffalo Grove. To suggest any other arrangement, could jeopardize our concern for
"accountability and control" and introduce other legal concerns that would contradict
current policy and increase our exposure for litigation.
Summary
My staff is very appreciative of our involvement in the various meetings and
conversations related to the proposal of a Dance Club in the Village of Buffalo Grove.
Our professional opinion has not varied,we do not support this concept given the history
of problems associated with a Dance Club,a predicted outcome of increased criminal
activity, specific to drug and alcohol abuse, and the inherent challenges associated with
large crowd gatherings. We cannot ignore the experiences associated with our three
nearby communities(Palatine, Schaumburg and Des Plaines) and must take into
consideration officer safety concerns that includes an element associated with a gang
presence.
As professionals,we stand ready to work within the policy set forth by our elected
officials and respectfully ask that if a Dance Club is allowed in the Village of Buffalo
Grove that the following restrictions be mandated to the operator of such establishment:
1) Limit the number of Dance Club events.
2) Restriction on closing times specific to age groups.
3) Restriction on age groups
4) Security mandates—Presence of a minimum of two uniformed Buffalo Grove
Police Officers. Approval of a security plan submitted by the operator.
5) Mandated fingerprint checks for all employees working the Dance Club.
6) All drug and/or alcohol violations must be reported to the Buffalo Grove Police
Department immediately
7) Liquids served or consumed in the Dance Club must be served in plastic
containers
8) Dance Club personnel must undergo appropriate training conducted by the
Buffalo Grove Police Department.
Our goal in requesting theses restrictions is to protect the best interest of this community.
As leaders of this organization, we take tremendous pride in enhancing our community
policing practices that have proven successful year after year in the type of police
services afforded to our citizens. Over the past ten years, our low crime rate totals are
indicative of our Commitment to Excellence and is reflective of the support of our leaders
in Village Government.
We pledge to continue this relationship and will support any policy decision regarding
this issue or challenges in the future. My staff is once again appreciative of being
afforded the opportunity to conduct such research on Dance Club environments and will
continue to voice professional opinions as required by your direction.
Respectfully,
Steve S. Balinski
Chief of Police

195 W. DUNDEE ROAD, DENGEO'S RESTAURANT — SIGN CODE, SECTION
14.40.125, TO INSTALL A ROOF SIGN ON THE NORTH ELEVATION OF THE
BUILDING
Mr. Louis Atsaves, Dengeo's Restaurant, 195 W. Dundee Road, was present and sworn
in. The public hearing notice published in the Daily Herald on November 25, 2009 was
read.
Mr. Atsaves explained the he was originally approved for the sign. He was not approved
for "Welcome to" and "Est. 1972". This is on all the signs at both locations. This was on
oversight on his end and he apologized. He is asking for the Board to approve the
additional language on the sign.
Ch. Entman reviewed the ART minutes from December 1, 2009.
Ch. Entman recalls that a variance was previously approved but what was actually
installed was a roof sign that says "Welcome to Dengeo's Est. 1972". How did that sign
get installed with the extra language on it if the one that was approved was just the name
of the business? Mr. Atsaves does not know. Ch. Entman asked if it was the sign
contractor, the Petitioner, who? Mr. Atsaves is not one hundred (100) percent sure. They
have had a very sick member of their family who passed away the Saturday before last.
For the last six (6) months he has been running around like a chicken with his head cut
off. He stated that it was probably his fault.
Com. Windecker stated that there were two (2) ART meetings with the architect and the
Petitioner and nothing was mentioned about the additional language. Then there was
testimony at the previous public hearing that did not include the additional language. But
the additional language was being used in the local advertising. Then the sign goes up on
the building in defiance of the approved sign. This now puts the Board in a position
where they have to legislate approval for the new sign. If everyone decides to make a
mistake, then they expect the Board to approve it after the fact. The draw back here is that
on the two (2) other signs, the west wall sign and the ground sign the additional language
is shown. Mr. Atsaves stated that he understands and that nothing was done intentionally.
Com. Windecker stated that he realizes that nothing is ever done intentionally. Mr.
Atsaves stated that if he would have caught the mistake in time he would have taken it off
the sign but by the time he caught it, it was too late. He is not trying to pull the wool over
anybody's eyes. He was just trying to rehab the building and the signage to make it better
for the neighborhood. It was an honest mistake.
Com. Stein stated that when the sign previously went before the Board, he was in favor of
the additional language on the ground sign even though the ground sign was not subject
to the variation. In order to identify what Dengeo's is going down Dundee Road, you
need to know what Dengeo's is; Gyros, etc. Had the proposal come to him up front, what
would he have been looking at to approve. Not knowing that prior to five (5) minutes ago
that the logo now reads "Welcome to Dengeo's Est. 1972". The Petitioner wants to
DRAFT MINUTES
ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS
DENGEO'S RESTAURANT, 195 W. DUNDEE ROAD
DECEMBER 15, 2009
identify a business. Dengeo's is definitely identifying a business and he can say that
"Dengeo's Est. 1972" is identifying the business. The "Welcome to" he thinks goes
nicely on a door. Is it so much of a problem that he would have voted in favor of it? He
does not know. The problem he is looking at right now, if the Board was to approve the
"Welcome to" and the changes after the fact, is the Board setting a precedence. If it is a
national logo, the Board allows the sign, if it is not a national logo; the Board has a
different standard for those types of signs.
Com. Stein asked Mr. Raysa that if this is a logo is the Board safer approving the change
had it not been their logo. Mr. Raysa stated that each individual petition stands on its
own. It does not set a precedent.
Ch. Entman understands the Petitioner's situation. The Board has seen this type of
situation a number of times. Whether it is done intentionally is not the issue. The issue is
that when the Board gets something like this where the Petitioner has gone through the
process for approval and then something is brought up after the fact it puts the Board in a
weird position. Now the Board has to maintain its responsibility to the Village to do what
they feel is best. Under normal circumstances if this sign would have been proposed with
the actual language, the Board would have had the opportunity to discuss and decide if
they liked it or not and voted accordingly. He does not like this situation. He has seen it
too much. The rules are the rules and they should be enforced. If the Board wanted to,
they could actually go deeper and find out exactly what happened. Because these things
just don't happen without somebody doing something. This sign does not get extra
language added for no reason. Somebody caused that extra language on that sign.
Somebody had to prepare it. Somebody looked it over and signed off on it. Somebody
watched the sign go up. There were a lot of things that went on that allowed the sign to be
changed. So does the Board enforce the variance that was granted or does the Board have
to sit here now and try and to determine if the Petitioner would be suffering a hardship to
change the sign. Does this sign look bad, is it more cumbersome, is it larger? Of course
not. But the question is how many times does the Board do this. His original opinion was
too bad, take it down, replace it. But in this case, he does not see a major issue with the
size or anything. He is not happy and he can guarantee that the rest of the Board is not
happy.
Mr. Atsaves replied that he did not notice the difference until the inspector told him that
the sign did not match the rendering. He would not have put the sign up if he did not
believe that is what was approved. He did not spend thirty-nine thousand ($39,000.00)
dollars on brand new signs to have to go before the Board again and look like an idiot.
Ch. Entman stated that he will not vote against the sign because of the cost involved and
because of the economy involved and because of the effect it could have on the Petitioner
and the business.

Com. Stein asked if the "Welcome to" can be removed from the sign without making the
sign look bad. Mr. Atsaves stated that his sign contractor stated that the sign would look
worse if they covered that up.
Ch. Entman stated that the change is minimal based on the size of the sign. As long as it
does not say something offensive or a violation of the other restrictions, he would suggest
looking at it as a whole and not picking the sign apart.
Com. Stein stated that he will vote the way he will vote because this evidentially is now
the logo at both stores.
There were no additional questions or comments from the Commissioners. There were no
questions or comments from the audience.

RE: Permit# C21356SN
Alterations for Dengeo's sign
We are asking that the board approves a re-facing of the sign in order to amend the text
on the sign relating to the above permit that has been approved on April 21, 2009. When
the architect submitted the drawings for the variance he left out 2 small details that
Dengeo's would like to the new sign to read.
1) At the top of the sign they would like for the words "Welcome To"to be added.
21) At the bottom of the sign they would like to add "est. 1972"
The sign location and dimensions will not be changed from what was approved on the
above permit number. The completed sign will then read "Welcome To Dengeo's est.
1972"
Once again thank you for your consideration in this mater, if any questions or concerns
please contact us. l

Subject appeal of sign variation recommendation
Brian
This e-mail shall serve as the request by Peerless Bridge LLC to appeal before the Village Board, the
recommendation made by the ZBA on 12/15/09 relating to the tenant identification sign requested at 1701
Leider Lane.
Let me know if you need additional information regarding this request. In understand we are tentatively
scheduled for the 1/2/10 Board meeting.
1700 LEIDER LANE, PEERLESS BRIDGE, LLC — SIGN CODE, SECTIONS
14.20.050 AND 14.20.070, TO ALLOW MORE THAN ONE GROUND SIGN ON
THE DEVELOPED PARCEL; TO ALLOW THE CORPORATE PARK
IDENTIFICATION GROUND SIGN TO BE LOCATED WITHIN TWO
HUNDRED FIFTY FEET OF THE TENANT IDENTIFICATION GROUND SIGN
TO BE LOCATED ON THE SAME PARCEL; AND TO ALLOW THE
CORPORATE PARK IDENTIFICATION GROUND SIGN AND THE TENANT
IDENTIFICATION GROUND SIGN TO BE LOCATED WITHIN TWO
HUNDRED FIFTY FEET OF THE TWO EXISTING GROUND SIGNS
LOCATED ON THE SAME SIDE OF THE STREET AT 1701 LEIDER LANE
Mr. Mark Christensen, Peerless Bridge, LLC, 700 Commerce Court, Suite 160, Oak
Brook, Illinois 60523, was present and sworn in. The public hearing notice published in
the Daily Herald on November 20, 2009 was read.
Mr. Christensen explained that he had been previously before Board a couple months ago
for the Sign Code variations for 1650 Leider Lane and 1701 Leider Lane. Previous
variations for these signs were approved but permits were not applied for within the six
(6) month period and the variations expired. This request is for two (2) ground signs on
this parcel, both of which would be within two hundred fifty (250) feet of each other and
the ground signs at 1701 Leider Lane. The signs are the same as what was previously
approved.
Ch. Entman read the Village Engineer's memorandum addressed to Brian Sheehan dated
November 30, 2009 which states: "The is a Village watermain in the vicinity of the Park
Ground Sign which needs to be taken into account when siting this sign."Mr. Christensen
has seen this report.
Ch. Entman reviewed the ART minutes dated December 1, 2009.
Ch. Entman asked about the intended use of the tenant panels. Mr. Christensen stated that
the intended use is more likely multi-tenancy. The building is designed for multi-tenants.
Currently the building is occupied approximately thirty (30) to forty (40) percent by one
(1) tenant on a short term basis. The building can be divided or could be occupied by one
(1) single user. The multi-tenant panel sign would give them the flexibility to identify
multiple tenants.
Ch. Entman asked about the proposed landscaping. Mr. Christensen stated that the
landscaping would be similar to the landscaping provided for the other ground signs at
1701 Leider Lane.
Com. Shapiro stated that the multi-tenant sign makes sense. The corporate park ground
sign is shown on the color rendering to have a tenant panel. Mr. Christensen stated that
the tenant panel on the corporate park ground sign is intended for a full building user.
Com. Shapiro asked what would then be listed on the multi-tenant identification ground
DRAFT MINUTES
ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS

DECEMBER 15, 2009
sign. Mr. Christensen replied that the tenant identification ground sign would be a
building directory sign. The tenant identification ground sign would not be seen from the
road. It is not intended to be seen from the road. Visitors would enter the property and
come across the tenant identification ground sign. It would be located near the front entry
as depicted on the site plan. The sign would designate tenant 41, tenant 42, etc. Com.
Shapiro asked if the building was occupied by a single tenant, what would be the purpose
of the tenant identification ground sign. Mr. Christensen stated that if that were the case,
there probably would not be a need to use it. They currently are planning on installing
these signs in anticipation of multi-tenant leases. They are fortunate that they currently
have a tenant in the building but it is for a short term. This tenant could relocate; they are
not sure at this time. They need the multi-tenant panel sign in place so if they put a tenant
in there they need to provide them identification signage. One of the reasons he is here is
because no one followed through and applied for the permits after these signs were
previously approved. Com. Shapiro stated that he can understand the need for the
corporate park ground sign now as the building is there. He believes that the multi-tenant
identification ground sign is premature to approve. If there were multiple tenants in the
building already, then the sign would make sense. He can not support the tenant
identification ground sign not knowing how it will be used. Mr. Christensen stated that
the same tenant identification ground sign has been approved at the 1701 Leider Lane
building.
Com. Windecker confirmed that the signs at both 1700 and 1701 Leider Lane would
match each other. The corporate park ground is to identify the park as a whole. So on the
corporate park ground sign, why would only one (1) tenant be identified and not the
entire corporate park. Mr. Christensen replied that if they were to have a tenant on the
corporate park ground sign it would be the tenant in the 1700 Leider Lane building. The
Leider Greenhouse sign is located on the east parcel already. Com. Windecker asked how
does the 1700 Leider Lane building differ from the 1701 Leider Lane building. Mr.
Christensen stated that the buildings are virtually the same. Com. Windecker stated that
he realizes that and that is why is he is asking if the Petitioner will come back and ask for
a ground sign on the 1701 Leider Lane parcel. The corporate park ground sign is
supposed to identify the entire complex as opposed to identifying just the one building.
Mr. Christensen replied that their expectation is that signage is allowed on the buildings
and if a tenant comes in and wants real visible signage they can pursue a wall sign on the
building. That would go through the normal permitting process. If a tenant were to come
along for the 1701 Leider Lane building and ask for their name on a ground sign along
the frontage,then they will pursue another variation. Com. Windecker again stated that he
believed that the corporate park ground sign would cover both properties. Mr.
Christensen stated that the primary intent is to identify the entire project. It is remote in
his mind that if a tenant wanted their name on a ground sign, the corporate park ground
sign could accommodate that. Mr. Christensen asked if the Board could make the
variation conditional upon having the Petitioner come back if they ever wanted to add a
tenant onto the ground sign. They have no immediate plans to put any tenants name on
the corporate park ground sign. Com. Windecker believes that they should be identifying
the industrial park on the corporate park ground sign only and have any tenants identified
DRAFT MINUTES
ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS
APTAKISIC CREEK CORPORATE PARK, 1700 LEIDER LANE
DECEMBER 15, 2009
on the tenant identification signs. The original intent was for one (1) corporate park
ground sign and two (2) tenant identifications ground signs to identify the tenants in the
building. Mr. Christensen stated that they are not hung up and having a tenants name on
the corporate park ground sign. Com. Windecker stated that he would recommend not
having any tenants identified on the corporate park ground sign.
Ch. Entman stated that it is not unique to have proposed to the Board signage that is
speculative. Building owners would like to have signage up when they are starting to
lease or trying to attract tenants. The corporate park ground sign should be the one to
identify the corporate park. They need identification for tenants as the come in. That is
understandable. Whether it is one (1) tenant per building or multiple tenants seems to be
the question. There is no question that the Petitioner will want signage. It seems that at
this stage the Board is being asked to approve signage not knowing what the use of the
building will be. He believes that was the concern of the ART. The Zoning Board wants
to grant signage that meets the needs as they exist and not the need that might arise. The
Board knows that there is corporate park there. A monument sign to identify that makes
sense. Then as tenants are obtained, the Petitioner can come back and address those
needs.
The Petitioner was advised that he can proceed with his request as submitted or he can
amend his petition. Mr. Christensen stated that he was confused. Ch. Entman stated that
the Petitioner has two (2) signs that are being proposed; one (1) for the corporate park
ground sign and one (1) for the tenant identification sign. The Zoning Board is suggesting
that the request for the tenant identification sign is premature. Mr. Christensen asked even
though the tenant identification sign was already approved at the other building and this
sign was previously approved for this building. Ch. Entman responded yes. He added that
the Petitioner can ask the Board to vote on it as submitted. Mr. Christensen asked if the
Board could vote on each sign separately. Ch. Entman stated that they would vote on
them separately.
The Petitioner amended his request to remove tenant identification on the corporate park
ground sign. He did not amend any other part of his request.
Com. Shapiro asked Mr. Sheehan when the tenant identification sign was approved for
the other building was there a standard set concerning the size of the lettering for the
tenant panels. Mr. Sheehan stated that the sign was the same as the proposed tenant
identification ground sign. There were no stipulations as to the lettering or anything else.
As they lease to tenants, a tenant panel will be added to the sign.
Ch. Entman stated that the corporate park ground sign as previously proposed did not
contain any tenant identification.
There were no additional questions or comments from the Commissioners. There were no
questions or comments from the audience.

Before they move on to the second motion Com. Windecker said he had a question about
the sign at 1701 Leider Lane. Com. Windecker asked if any of that building is currently
rented. Mr. Christensen stated that the building is fully leased at this time. Com.
Windecker asked how many tenants are occupying that building. Mr. Christensen stated
that one (1) tenant occupies that building. However it is a short term lease. Com.
Windecker asked about 1700 Leider Lane. Mr. Christensen stated that the same tenant
that is occupying 1701 Leider Lane is also occupying some space at 1700 Leider Lane.
Com. Windecker confirmed that both buildings could have no tenants shortly. Mr.
Christensen stated that they continue to actively market the buildings. The leases are on a
month to month basis.
The commissioners then moved on to the second portion of the motion. This is a vote on
the motion for the Tenant Identification Ground Sign only.

Re: Application for Sign Code Variance for 1700 Leider Lane
Zoning Board of Appeals:
We are requesting a variance from Section 14.20.070 to permit two ground signs on this
parcel and to permit signs within 250' of one another on the same side of the street. The
signs that we are proposing will comply with Village Sign Code guidelines in terms of
size and lighting; they will have a concentration of landscaping at their base; and
signage materials will complement the new buildings. Two signs are necessary on the
parcel in order to 1) identify 1700 Leider Lane, a building within Aptakisic Creek
Corporate Park, and 2) to allow the installation of the monument sign at the southwest
corner of the intersection of Leider and Aptakisic. The ground sign off of Leider Lane
will identify 1700 Leider Lane and its occupants. The proposed signage will be
important for directing customers to the Corporate Park and will not have any negative
affects on the appearance of the Park from Aptakisic Road or neighboring parcels.
A variance as noted above was previously granted however, the variance expired
before these signs could be installed.
Should you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely,
Mark Christensen

The style and colors of the proposed signs are similar to the tenant ground sign
approved for 1701 Leider Lane.
The proposed color rendering depicts landscaping around the base of the sign.
Details should be provided at the Zoning Board of Appeals meeting depicting the

Village of Buffalo Grove
51 Raupp Boulevard
Buffalo Grove, IL 60089-2198
Reference: Proposal to Provide Professional Engineering Design and Bidding
Services for a New Deep Well at Pump Station No. 7
Dear Mr. Boysen:
This letter constitutes the Proposal of AECOM USA, Inc. ("AECOM") to perform certain services as an
independent consultant for the Village of Buffalo Grove, Illinois (hereinafter"Client").
Scope of Work:
Per your request, AECOM USA, Inc. is pleased to provide this Proposal for the above-referenced
project. Our understanding of the project is that the Village wishes to have a new deep well
constructed at the Pump Station No. 7 site. Currently, the Village has three (3) existing deep
aquifer wells at Pump Station Nos. 1, 2 and 6, with a total capacity of 4.72 million gallons per day
(mgd), which is approximately 95 percent of the Village's average day demand. These wells are
maintained solely for emergency use in the unlikely event that the Village's primary water supply
(treated Lake Michigan water purchased by the Northwest Water Commission) becomes
unavailable or the availability is significantly reduced.
Per discussions with Village staff, it is the intent that the new deep well be drilled to a depth of
approximately 1,000 feet and have a capacity of approximately 1,000 gallons per minute (gpm).
The well will be equipped with a submersible-type pump and motor drive, and a flanged pitless
adapter connection to the casing pipe. The design will include the routing of well pump discharge
piping to the existing pump house. The design will also include a prefabricated enclosure for
protection of the well and connections to the Village's existing chlorination system at Pump Station
No. 7. In addition, there are 20 man-hours included in this proposal for the study and design of the
effects of corrosion on the Village's existing chlorination equipment. Additional design over and
above the 20 hours will not commence without further authorization.
Based on recent discussions with Village staff, it is anticipated that the new well will be located
approximately 150 feet south of the existing pump house, across LaSalle Lane, on property
currently owned by the Village.
The Village has provided AECOM with a Preliminary Engineering Report for Well No. 7, Reservoir
& Pumphouse Facilities, prepared by others, dated August 1980. We will incorporate any pertinent
well design criteria from this report as well as hydrogeology and geological information, anticipated
casing schedules and pump settings into our design.

In addition, we will consider the Village supplied Geotechnical Report for Storage Reservoir and
Pump House, performed by Testing Service Corporation, dated March 1981, in our design, as
applicable. The following table breaks down the tasks required for AECOM to complete the project
(further called "Services" or "Scope of Work") along with the man-hours required to complete each
task.
Task Description Man-hours
1. Kick-Off Meeting/Site Visit 16
2. Topographic Survey 50
3. Prepare Front End Bidding Documents 20
4. Prepare Design Drawings 218
5. Prepare Technical Specifications 100
6. Study and Design of Chlorination Equipment 20
7. Meet with Village to Discuss Design 12
8 Prepare Permit Applications, Discussions/Meeting with 40
Regulatory Agencies, IEPA Project Plan Submittal
9. Pre are Opinion of Probable Construction Costs 20
10. Bidding Phase 32
Total 528
We propose to perform the engineering services for this project for a fee equal to two and twenty-five
hundredths (2.25) times the "salary costs of engineering and technical personnel" expended in
performing the work, the term "salary costs of engineering and technical personnel" shall mean the
actual wages paid to those members of staff who are classified as officers, engineers, technicians,
draftsmen and field party personnel and who perform services under this Agreement plus
employees' benefits, which include state and federal taxes, social security, employment and
retirement benefits as defined in American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) Manual No. 45. The
cost will not exceed $67,900.00 without further authorization. It should be noted that costs for
geotechnical investigations, well drilling, well development and well testing are not included in this
proposal. In addition, this cost proposal is based on the production of one set of bidding documents
for the well drilling and development work, as well as the well pump, motor and piping
improvements.
AECOM shall be an independent contractor for purposes of the Scope of Work set forth above.
AECOM shall be entitled to rely upon any documentation and materials provided to AECOM in
performing the Scope of Work. It is understood that no one, other than the Client, is entitled to rely
(subject to the limitations set forth herein) upon the documents provided by AECOM in accordance with
this agreement. AECOM shall provide you with an invoice each month. The parties agree that they will
comply with the terms of the Illinois Local Government Prompt Payment Act, 50 ILCS 501/1, et seq. (the
"Act"), and that the provisions of the Act will control with respect to any failure by Buffalo Grove to pay in
a timely manner."
AECOM shall maintain professional liability insurance for its work, with the limits of$5,000,000 per claim
and in aggregate. AECOM shall also maintain Commercial General Liability insurance with the limits of
$1,000,000 per occurrence and in aggregate and Workers' Compensation insurance with the statutory
limits. However, AECOM represents only that it will perform its services in accordance with the
standards of care and diligence normally practiced by recognized engineering firms in performing

services of a similar nature at the time such services are performed. AECOM makes no other
warranties either express or implied. AECOM shall not be responsible for the removal or remediation of
any environmental contaminants or hazardous materials that may be found at the property and
AECOM shall not be responsible for the means, methods or procedures of any other contractor or
subcontractor, nor shall AECOM be responsible for the safety of any individuals other than its own
employees.
You may terminate the services upon written notice to us. Upon termination of the services, you will be
obligated to pay AECOM only that portion of the fixed price equal to the costs incurred for the services
performed to the date of termination, provided that the same shall in no event be less than the fair value
of the services completed in relation to the total fixed price, and neither party shall have any further
liability to the other.
This letter, including those attachments specifically referenced in this letter, sets forth the full and
complete proposal of AECOM and it sets forth the full and complete agreement of the parties with
respect to the Services to be provided hereunder, and it supersedes any and all proposals, agreements
and representations made or dated prior thereto. Modifications or amendments to this agreement must
be in writing and executed by a duly authorized representative of each party. This agreement is for the
exclusive benefit of you and AECOM and not for the benefit of any third party.
If this proposal is acceptable to you, please have two copies of this letter signed by an authorized
representative in the space provided below, indicating your agreement with the terms and conditions of
this letter, and return one of them to me.

THE DEVELOPED PARCEL; TO ALLOW THE CORPORATE PARK
IDENTIFICATION GROUND SIGN TO BE LOCATED WITHIN TWO
HUNDRED FIFTY FEET OF THE TENANT IDENTIFICATION GROUND SIGN

CORPORATE PARK IDENTIFICATION GROUND SIGN AND THE TENANT
IDENTIFICATION GROUND SIGN TO BE LOCATED WITHIN TWO
HUNDRED FIFTY FEET OF THE TWO EXISTING GROUND SIGNS
LOCATED ON THE SAME SIDE OF THE STREET AT 1701 LEIDER LANE
Mr. Mark Christensen, Peerless Bridge, LLC, 700 Commerce Court, Suite 160, Oak
Brook, Illinois 60523, was present and sworn in. The public hearing notice published in
the Daily Herald on November 20, 2009 was read.
Mr. Christensen explained that he had been previously before Board a couple months ago
for the Sign Code variations for 1650 Leider Lane and 1701 Leider Lane. Previous
variations for these signs were approved but permits were not applied for within the six
(6) month period and the variations expired. This request is for two (2) ground signs on
this parcel, both of which would be within two hundred fifty (250) feet of each other and
the ground signs at 1701 Leider Lane. The signs are the same as what was previously
approved.
Ch. Entman read the Village Engineer's memorandum addressed to Brian Sheehan dated
November 30, 2009 which states: "The is a Village watermain in the vicinity of the Park
Ground Sign which needs to be taken into account when siting this sign."Mr. Christensen
has seen this report.
Ch. Entman reviewed the ART minutes dated December 1, 2009.
Ch. Entman asked about the intended use of the tenant panels. Mr. Christensen stated that
the intended use is more likely multi-tenancy. The building is designed for multi-tenants.
Currently the building is occupied approximately thirty (30) to forty (40) percent by one
(1) tenant on a short term basis. The building can be divided or could be occupied by one
(1) single user. The multi-tenant panel sign would give them the flexibility to identify
multiple tenants.
Ch. Entman asked about the proposed landscaping. Mr. Christensen stated that the
landscaping would be similar to the landscaping provided for the other ground signs at
1701 Leider Lane.
Com. Shapiro stated that the multi-tenant sign makes sense. The corporate park ground
sign is shown on the color rendering to have a tenant panel. Mr. Christensen stated that
the tenant panel on the corporate park ground sign is intended for a full building user.
Com. Shapiro asked what would then be listed on the multi-tenant identification ground

sign. Mr. Christensen replied that the tenant identification ground sign would be a
building directory sign. The tenant identification ground sign would not be seen from the
road. It is not intended to be seen from the road. Visitors would enter the property and
come across the tenant identification ground sign. It would be located near the front entry
as depicted on the site plan. The sign would designate tenant 41, tenant 42, etc. Com.
Shapiro asked if the building was occupied by a single tenant, what would be the purpose
of the tenant identification ground sign. Mr. Christensen stated that if that were the case,
there probably would not be a need to use it. They currently are planning on installing
these signs in anticipation of multi-tenant leases. They are fortunate that they currently
have a tenant in the building but it is for a short term. This tenant could relocate; they are
not sure at this time. They need the multi-tenant panel sign in place so if they put a tenant
in there they need to provide them identification signage. One of the reasons he is here is
because no one followed through and applied for the permits after these signs were
previously approved. Com. Shapiro stated that he can understand the need for the
corporate park ground sign now as the building is there. He believes that the multi-tenant
identification ground sign is premature to approve. If there were multiple tenants in the
building already, then the sign would make sense. He can not support the tenant
identification ground sign not knowing how it will be used. Mr. Christensen stated that
the same tenant identification ground sign has been approved at the 1701 Leider Lane
building.
Com. Windecker confirmed that the signs at both 1700 and 1701 Leider Lane would
match each other. The corporate park ground is to identify the park as a whole. So on the
corporate park ground sign, why would only one (1) tenant be identified and not the
entire corporate park. Mr. Christensen replied that if they were to have a tenant on the
corporate park ground sign it would be the tenant in the 1700 Leider Lane building. The
Leider Greenhouse sign is located on the east parcel already. Com. Windecker asked how
does the 1700 Leider Lane building differ from the 1701 Leider Lane building. Mr.
Christensen stated that the buildings are virtually the same. Com. Windecker stated that
he realizes that and that is why is he is asking if the Petitioner will come back and ask for
a ground sign on the 1701 Leider Lane parcel. The corporate park ground sign is
supposed to identify the entire complex as opposed to identifying just the one building.
Mr. Christensen replied that their expectation is that signage is allowed on the buildings
and if a tenant comes in and wants real visible signage they can pursue a wall sign on the
building. That would go through the normal permitting process. If a tenant were to come
along for the 1701 Leider Lane building and ask for their name on a ground sign along
the frontage,then they will pursue another variation. Com. Windecker again stated that he
believed that the corporate park ground sign would cover both properties. Mr.
Christensen stated that the primary intent is to identify the entire project. It is remote in
his mind that if a tenant wanted their name on a ground sign, the corporate park ground
sign could accommodate that. Mr. Christensen asked if the Board could make the
variation conditional upon having the Petitioner come back if they ever wanted to add a
tenant onto the ground sign. They have no immediate plans to put any tenants name on
the corporate park ground sign. Com. Windecker believes that they should be identifying
the industrial park on the corporate park ground sign only and have any tenants identified

ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS

on the tenant identification signs. The original intent was for one (1) corporate park
ground sign and two (2) tenant identifications ground signs to identify the tenants in the
building. Mr. Christensen stated that they are not hung up and having a tenants name on
the corporate park ground sign. Com. Windecker stated that he would recommend not
having any tenants identified on the corporate park ground sign.
Ch. Entman stated that it is not unique to have proposed to the Board signage that is
speculative. Building owners would like to have signage up when they are starting to
lease or trying to attract tenants. The corporate park ground sign should be the one to
identify the corporate park. They need identification for tenants as the come in. That is
understandable. Whether it is one (1) tenant per building or multiple tenants seems to be
the question. There is no question that the Petitioner will want signage. It seems that at
this stage the Board is being asked to approve signage not knowing what the use of the
building will be. He believes that was the concern of the ART. The Zoning Board wants
to grant signage that meets the needs as they exist and not the need that might arise. The
Board knows that there is corporate park there. A monument sign to identify that makes
sense. Then as tenants are obtained, the Petitioner can come back and address those
needs.
The Petitioner was advised that he can proceed with his request as submitted or he can
amend his petition. Mr. Christensen stated that he was confused. Ch. Entman stated that
the Petitioner has two (2) signs that are being proposed; one (1) for the corporate park
ground sign and one (1) for the tenant identification sign. The Zoning Board is suggesting
that the request for the tenant identification sign is premature. Mr. Christensen asked even
though the tenant identification sign was already approved at the other building and this
sign was previously approved for this building. Ch. Entman responded yes. He added that
the Petitioner can ask the Board to vote on it as submitted. Mr. Christensen asked if the
Board could vote on each sign separately. Ch. Entman stated that they would vote on
them separately.
The Petitioner amended his request to remove tenant identification on the corporate park
ground sign. He did not amend any other part of his request.
Com. Shapiro asked Mr. Sheehan when the tenant identification sign was approved for
the other building was there a standard set concerning the size of the lettering for the
tenant panels. Mr. Sheehan stated that the sign was the same as the proposed tenant
identification ground sign. There were no stipulations as to the lettering or anything else.
As they lease to tenants, a tenant panel will be added to the sign.
Ch. Entman stated that the corporate park ground sign as previously proposed did not
contain any tenant identification.
There were no additional questions or comments from the Commissioners. There were no
questions or comments from the audience.

Before they move on to the second motion Com. Windecker said he had a question about
the sign at 1701 Leider Lane. Com. Windecker asked if any of that building is currently
rented. Mr. Christensen stated that the building is fully leased at this time. Com.
Windecker asked how many tenants are occupying that building. Mr. Christensen stated
that one (1) tenant occupies that building. However it is a short term lease. Com.
Windecker asked about 1700 Leider Lane. Mr. Christensen stated that the same tenant
that is occupying 1701 Leider Lane is also occupying some space at 1700 Leider Lane.
Com. Windecker confirmed that both buildings could have no tenants shortly. Mr.
Christensen stated that they continue to actively market the buildings. The leases are on a

Re: Application for Sign Code Variance for 1700 Leider Lane
Zoning Board of Appeals:
We are requesting a variance from Section 14.20.070 to permit two ground signs on this
parcel and to permit signs within 250' of one another on the same side of the street. The
signs that we are proposing will comply with Village Sign Code guidelines in terms of
size and lighting; they will have a concentration of landscaping at their base; and
signage materials will complement the new buildings. Two signs are necessary on the
parcel in order to 1) identify 1700 Leider Lane, a building within Aptakisic Creek
Corporate Park, and 2) to allow the installation of the monument sign at the southwest
corner of the intersection of Leider and Aptakisic. The ground sign off of Leider Lane
will identify 1700 Leider Lane and its occupants. The proposed signage will be
important for directing customers to the Corporate Park and will not have any negative
affects on the appearance of the Park from Aptakisic Road or neighboring parcels.
A variance as noted above was previously granted however, the variance expired
before these signs could be installed.
Should you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely,
Mark Christensen

PROPOSAL
To install two (2) ground signs on the property. Sign Code variations are required
to allow more than one ground sign on the developed parcel; to allow the
corporate park identification ground sign to be located within two hundred fifty
feet of the tenant identification ground sign to be located on the same parcel; and
to allow the corporate park identification ground sign and the tenant identification
ground sign to be located within two hundred fifty feet of the two existing ground
signs located on the same side of the street at 1701 Leider Lane.

tenant building. Mr. Sheehan stated that question should be raised by the Zoning
Board of Appeals as well as the intended use of the panels.
The style and colors of the proposed signs are similar to the tenant ground sign
approved for 1701 Leider Lane.
The proposed color rendering depicts landscaping around the base of the sign.
Details should be provided at the Zoning Board of Appeals meeting depicting the
type and coverage area of the proposed landscaping.
RECOMMENDATION
The ART recommends approval of the proposed ground signs subject to the
following information being provided:
1. The intended use of the tenant panels and clarification concerning single
tenant use or multi tenant.
2. Details depicting the type and coverage area of the proposed landscaping.
