So

I
have
a
motion

crable

okay
motion

I
would
say
second

member
ward.
C
E
E
A
Yes,
okay,
so
trustee
crabile,
you
are
authorized
to
participate
remotely
next
item
on
the
agenda,
which
is
a
consent
agenda.
Is
there
a
is
there
anybody
who
would
like
to
remove
any
items
in
the
consent
agenda?
A
Okay,
move
by
trustee
crumpler.
Second,
by
trustee
bolin,
we
are
doing
a
yes
electronic
vote.
G
A
Okay,
awesome:
the
consented
data
passes
next
item
on
the
agenda
is
just,
I
guess,
a
courtesy
copy
of
annual
statement
and
receipts
and
expenditures
for
fiscal
year
2022,
which
was
presented
at
the
annual
town
meeting
on
april
12
2022,
and
this
is
not
a
nothing
to
vote.
Just
informational
item,
correct,
okay,
any
questions
from
council
or
trustees,
or
comments
from
scholarship
supervisor.
Skill
root.
A
H
I
can
make
a
quick
comment
sure
this
has
been
budgeted
and
line
item
for
special
projects
to
continue
with
our
property
condition,
report
deficiencies
and
maintenance
repairs.
So
this
is
year
one
year
two,
which
was
really
year
three:
two
and
three.
I
think,
because
we've
been
delayed
a
little
so.
A
Okay,
are
there
any
questions
for
trustee
for
a
township
supervisor,
skill,
rude,
okay?
Seeing
now
is
there
a
motion
to
approve
the
item.
I
A
Okay,
it
looks
like
everyone
has
voted,
and
the
item
passes
no
needs
to
announce.
Next
item
is
reports
by
elected
officials
and
we're
going
to
start
with
supervisor
skill
route.
H
I
just
wanted
to
update
you
on
the
parking
lot
improvements.
They're
they've
poured
the
concrete
on
the
north
side,
they'll
be
striping
pretty
soon
and
then
they'll
start
work
on
the
south
side,
so
it's
moving
along
and
we
want
to
continue
that
movement
with
the
rest
of
what
needs
to
get
done.
Thank
you.
Yeah.
A
D
Hello,
I
submitted
the
presentation
that
I
reported
on
in
april
for
the
annual
town
meeting
and
is
there
any
questions
on
any
of
the
slides
I
presented?
Otherwise,
I
can
go
through
the
whole
report.
If
you'd
like
do
you
have
copies.
D
A
Well,
awesome
any
questions:
okay,
saying
none
we're
going
to
move
on
to
public
comments,
but
I'm
going
do

any.
A
Okay
motion

trustee
bowlin,

trustee

aye,

G
F
A
A
Okay,
how's
everybody
doing
good,
okay,
yep
nod
see
I'm
doing
good.
Thank
you,
okay,
yep!
I
am
doing
awesome
personally
and
for
that
reason
I'm
going
to
call
the
meeting
of
the
bloomington
city
council
to
order
and
if,
if
everyone
could
stand
for
the
pledge
of
allegiance
and
remain
standing
for
a
moment
of
silence,
I
pledge
allegiance
to
the
flag
of
the
united
states.
J
A
G
B
F
K
A
You're
welcome
next
item
on
the
agenda
is
a
public
comment
and
madam
clerk
do
we
have
any
public
comment.
C
A
Okay
sounds
good
and
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
read
a
statement
with
regards
to
public
comment.
Public
comment
is
an
opportunity
for
speakers
to
provide
their
views
and
feedback
to
the
city
council.
It
is
also
an
opportunity
for
the
city
council
to
listen
and
hear
diverse
points
of
view
to
maximize
the
impact
of
public
comment
and
show
respect
for
the
expression
of
all
views.
Speakers
should
maintain
civility
and
focus
on
city
issues.
A
A
L
L
My
name
is
august
north,
I'm
a
precinct
committee
person
for
bloomington
precinct
one
and
we're
obviously
talking
about
the
annexation
of
the
land
on
the
west
side
of
the
expressway,
and
a
lot
of
my
stuff
is
based
on
the
original
meeting
that
we
had
in
march.
That
was,
with
the
planning
committee
and
speaker
after
speaker,
posted
a
position
and
raised
questions.
During
that
meeting
we
got
a
lot
of
we
don't
know
we
haven't
done
the
research
we'll
have
to
look
it
up.
L
What's
the
point
of
notifying
everybody
within
500
feet
and
having
meetings,
if
nothing
really
changed,
it
didn't
affect
the
vote,
nothing
changed.
The
march
meeting.
We
asked
about
the
maintenance
cost
that
the
added
road
will
have.
The
answer
was
we
haven't
done
the
calculations?
L
A
quick
trip
will
roughly
add
about
a
half
a
mile
of
road.
It
can
be
a
hard
calculation
to
do
to
provide
to
people
to
so
people
can
feel
better
about
the
decisions
that
are
being
made.
Also,
the
quick
trip
representative
assured
us
that
the
road
they're
building
will
be
maintenance-free
for
at
least
10
years.
L
I
haven't
seen
a
road:
that's
maintenance-free
for
10
years,
especially
around
track
stops
those
roads
last
couple
years
and
then
they're
horrible
afterwards,
and
the
cost
will
be
passed
on
to
the
city.
Afterwards.
L
M
Scott
steinling,
ward,
5.,
I
do
have
a
concern
regarding
the
infrastructure
in
this
town,
the
drainage
or
the
storm
inlets
the
roads,
the
ada
sidewalks
they're
around
the
government
center
their
own
city
hall,
but
they
are
not
in
the
individual
neighborhoods
the
streets,
the
sidewalks
are
terrible.
I
saw
one
person
with
a
walker.
M
They
went
out
and
used
the
sidewalks
before
the
patching
was
done
and
he
was
staying
at
his
son's
house
turned
around
and
went
back,
dried
the
roads
and
they
were
worse.
Yet
they
went
back.
That
speaks
real
well
for
the
city.
You
know
where's,
all
this
tax
money
going.
Is
it
going
into
the
line
somebody's
pockets?
What
about
the
gas
tax?
M
I
thought
it
was
supposed
to
go
to
the
roads
if
it
was
they're
doing
a
lousy
job
of
it.
You
know
I
don't
know
how
many,
how
much
it's
going
to
take.
M
Maybe
it's
going
to
take
somebody
falling
and
killing
themselves
before
the
city
wakes
up
yet
you're
supposed
to
keep
the
sidewalks
clean
in
front
of
your
house
no
problem
but
I'll
be
daggone.
If
I'm
going
to
pay
60
or
80
a
panel
to
replace
those
things
when
it's
a
city's
problem,
the
city
does
a
lousy
job
of
keeping
the
roads
up.
M
He
said
he's
supposed
to
keep
the
roads
up.
That's
supposed
to
raise
the
storm
inlets,
I'm
still
waiting
after
15
years.
M
A
N
Hello,
patrick
copeland,
with
the
bloomington,
normal
economic
development
council
and
I'm
also
a
resident
on
bloomington's
west
side.
I
want
to
talk
a
little
about
c2e
and
also
quick
trip.
C2E,
I
believe,
is
an
opportunity.
A
lot
of
you
know
that
we're
struggling
with
workforce
right
now,
especially
workforce
attraction
and
retention.
N
My
mind
is
an
opportunity
not
just
to
provide
some
new
homes
that
are
much
needed,
but
also
it
beautifies
a
corridor.
So
I
travel
by
rather
every
single
day
it
is
blighted.
That's
been
a
chronic
problem.
We've
talked
to
multiple
developers,
it's
nice,
to
have
somebody
interested
in
this,
but
there
is
a
housing
study
that
I
was
hopefully
going
to
have
done
by
now,
but
some
numbers
I
wanted
to
talk
about
to
touch
on
and
why
we
need
this.
N
We
did
meet
with
our
local
realtors,
there's
only
nine
homes
on
the
market
in
all
of
bloomington
normal
under
300
000.
So
we
need
something
to
attract
more
people,
because
we
do
have
more
expansions
on
the
way
and
if
we
don't
have
the
people
we're
going
to
stop
growing.
If
we
stop
growing,
then
we're
going
to
have
more
problems.
N
As
you
know,
we
do
have
limited
infill
development.
This
is
also
an
infill
development,
most
of
the
expansion
that
we've
seen
recently,
I
believe
82
percent
of
it's
been
outside
the
core,
so
everything
developing
on
the
east
side,
the
east
side's
beautiful,
but
we
need
to
put
money
right
back
in
the
heart
which
I
believe
this
project
does.
We
also
need
to
have
a
multi-family
product
differentiation.
N
If
we
look
at
other
communities
our
size
that
are
attracting
talent,
they
have
new
buildings,
like
our
our
properties,
really
haven't
been
built
since
the
80s.
When
you
use
comparisons-
and
I
wish
I
had
some
photos
to
share-
but
they
will
be
in
the
study
when
it's
finished
and
then
also
we've
seen
a
major
increase,
39
increase
when
it
comes
to
single-family
rentals,
they
are
renting
our
homes,
which
are
meant
for
our
smaller
families,
because
we're
out
of
high-end
rentals.
N
So
if
we
can
get
some
investment
back
into
the
heart,
get
more
rentals
in
downtown
it'll,
create
walkability,
benefit
our
businesses,
but
also
free
up
those
homes
for
our
families,
which
they
were
intended.
As
far
as
quick
trip
goes,
I
know
annexation's
hard.
I've
worked
for
mixed
valleys
before
there's
a
looking
at
the
overall
map
of
bloomington.
It
seems
like
there's
quite
a
bit
of
holes
all
over
I
mean
I
know.
N
Annexation
can
be
tough,
but
this,
I
think,
is
an
opportunity
to
get
investment
back
on
the
west
side
because
it
seems
to
all
be
going
to
the
east
side
so
get
everything
back
over
there
and
also.
I
know
it
is
a
truck
stop,
but
quick
trip
does
generate
outside
money
and
we
love
outside
money,
because
that
is
money
that's
coming
in
from
somewhere
else.
That
would
help
fix
our
roads.
Thank
you.
A
J
J
The
media
reported
that
this
increase
was
going
to
go
to
a
road
repair
and
I
imagine
probably
sidewalks
too.
The
roads
are
in
dire
need
and
so
are
the
sidewalks
they're
in
horrible
shape,
and
I
just
wanted
to
say
that
I
don't
remember
exactly
when
this
was
when
they
and
when
construction.
I
don't
know
who
does
the
road
repairs,
but
they
had
main
street
worked
on
and
they
paved
it
brand
new,
put
down
new
pavement
and
then
for
some
odd
reason.
J
They
went
back
and
dug
up
the
water
water
holes,
the
water
drainage
in
the
roads
after
they
had
already
repaired
them.
So
I
don't
know
you
know,
there's
a
lot
of
issues
going
on
with
the
construction
of
the
roads
and
the
waste
money.
Probably
that's
I
mean
that
was
probably
a
waste
of
money,
because
what
it
does
is
it
ruins
the
roads
quicker
when
they
come
back
and
dig
back
up
what
they
already
fixed
it.
J
You
know
the
roads
get
bad
quicker,
and
so
I
don't
know
if
there's
a
different
way
that
they
can
do
the
roads
so
they're,
you
know
not
damaged
sooner.
You
know
that
they
last
longer,
and
the
other
thing
I
had
was
that
I
know
that
secretary
of
transportation
judge
was
here
recently,
and
you
know
I
think
it's
it's
embarrassing
to
see.
You
know
if
we
want
to
draw
people
into
our
city.
J
We
need
to
do
that
infrastructure
to
at
least
make
it
look
nicer,
and
it
also
you
know
who
wants
to
drive
on
these
roads.
I
mean
it
does
damage
to
our
cars.
It's
not
good
for
our
cars.
People
who
are
lower
income
can't
really
afford
it.
You
know
the
day,
because
it's
just
it's
atrocious,
so
I
hope
you
all
think
about
that
and
start
considering,
because
the
county
doesn't
pay
for
city
roads,
the
city
council,
the
city
pays
for
city,
roads
and
sidewalks,
and
we
need
safe
sidewalks
for
people
to
walk
on.
A
Okay.
Thank
you.
The
next
item
on
the
agenda
is
recognition
and
appointments
and
we're
gonna
start
with
a
proclamation
for
arbor
day
and
as
I
understand
we
have
a
staff
member
two
staff
members
come
up.
A
This
is
a
an
official
proclamation
in,
I
guess
in
recognition
of
arbor
day,
whereas
in
1872,
the
nebraska
border
of
agriculture
established
a
special
day
to
be
set
aside
for
the
planting
of
trees
and
whereas
this
holiday
called
arbor
day
was
first
observed,
with
the
planting
of
more
than
a
million
trees
in
nebraska
and
whereas
arbor
day
is
now
observed
throughout
the
nation
and
the
world,
and
whereas
trees
can
be
a
solution
for
combating
climate
change,
by
reducing
the
erosion
of
our
precious
top
soil
by
wind
and
water.
A
Cutting
heating
and
cooling
costs,
moderating
the
temperature
cleaning,
the
air
producing
life-giving
oxygen
and
providing
habitat
for
wildlife
and
whereas
trees
are
a
renewable
resource.
Giving
us
paper,
wood
for
our
homes,
fuel
for
our
fires
and
countless
other
wood
products,
products
and
whereas
trees
in
our
city,
increase
property
values,
enhance
the
economic
vitality
of
business
areas
and
beautify
our
community
and
whereas
trees,
wherever
they
are
planted,
are
a
source
of
joy
and
spiritual
renewal.
A
O
The
29th
yeah
we're
doing
a
planting
at
trinity,
lutheran
school
at
hamilton,
road
in
bloomington,
at
1
30
on
friday,
the
29th,
so
everybody
here
is
welcome
to
come
to
that,
and
this
is
really
you
know,
I'm
I'm
here
getting
this,
but
this
is
a
community
award.
It
reflects
on
all
of
the
administration,
all
the
staff
of
the
city
and
all
of
our
residents
that
care
about
trees,
bloomington
staff
and
residents
are
always
very
proud
of
their
trees.
A
A
C
I'm
not
sure
that
we
have
a
slide.
It's
gina
lavazza
with
the
citizens
beautification.
Oh,
we
do
got
it.
A
Awesome.
Thank
you.
The
next
item
on
the
agenda
is
a
recognition
of
and
presentation
of
the
mclean
county,
2021
4-h
robotics
power
surge
blast
team,
who
won
the
champions
award
in
a
state
competition
as
requested
by
the
administration
department.
So
if
you
guys
want
to
move
forward,
so
we
can
hear
your
presentation,
this
is
awesome
and
I
know
there's
a
couple
of
one
in
particular:
I'm
not
gonna
put
him
on
blast,
but
you
know
who
wanted
to
have
some
of
those
hats
for
all
of
us.
A
A
So,
a
couple
of
weeks
ago,
I
had
an
opportunity
to
meet
with
these
young
people
and-
and
they
shared
with
me,
their
their
project,
and
I
I
thought,
along
with
staff,
that
this
would
be
a
it's
a
great
opportunity
when
young
people
who
are
the
future
of
our
community,
do
things
like
this.
I
think
it's
important
to
highlight
those
and
it
it
it's
a
little
bit
different
from
what
we
typically
do
at
city
council
meetings,
so
we're
looking
forward
to
it.
Q
R
Evening
everybody,
thank
you
very
much
for
the
opportunity
for
these
kids.
I
would
just
introduce
the
kids
name
and
let
them
start
the
presentation.
This
is
vikka
chatrati
sandy
bhagavatala,
vish,
vishudevari,
saket
bhojnam
drew
raise
your
hands
and
I
speak.
Yeah
drew.
G
C
P
S
T
U
W
U
Y
S
W
X
T
U
T
We
then
iterated
our
problem
statement
and
found
the
inefficiencies
with
the
relative
truck
transfer
process.
We
we
saw
that
the
truck
dropper
may
wait
for
two
or
more
hours
and
truck
drivers
are
paid
by
the
load.
Therefore,
waiting
reduces
its
pay
and
there
are
only
36
sightings
in
illinois
which
create
bottlenecks,
as
they
say.
V
The
current
steps
for
rail
to
truck
transfer
start
with
the
train,
stopping
at
a
train
sign
in
a
crane
unloading,
all
the
cargo
from
the
train.
The
crane
then
lowers
the
cargo
onto
a
container
chassis.
The
truck
then
leaves
to
head
to
delivery
site
and
may
or
may
not
come
back
for
a
second
load,
and
this
takes
too
much
time.
T
W
W
View
of
our
project,
as
you
can
see,
the
train
would
pull
into
the
siding
as
usual.
It
would
then
wait
in
this
small
area
for
the
ask
a
car
to
complete
its
journey.
The
asca
car
would
use
power
drills
until
it
reached
the
road
where
hydraulics
would
swap
out
its
road
wheels
with
its
street
wheels.
It
would
then
use
its
electric
battery
pack
and
gps
to
drive
to
the
warehouse
where
workers
inside
would
unload
it
and
send
it
back
on
its
way
to
the
ascock
or
the
train.
U
X
W
Z
Always
have
questions
I'm
curious
about
what
what
you
think
was
the
biggest
challenge
you
had
to
overcome.
T
And
other
things,
and
we
had
to
see
the
pros
and
cons
and
the
realtor
truck
transfer
process
had
not
that
many
cons
as
to
something
like
tesla
bot.
U
I
would
have
to
agree
with
vic
like
the
team
brainstormed,
like
many
solutions
like
we
searched
up
on
google
like
like
the
new
products
tesla's
coming
out
with,
like
we
saw
like
electric
auto
driving
like
flatbeds
and
like
other
semi
trucks
and
stuff.
So
we
were
looking
at
those,
but
they
had
more
cons
than
pros.
So
we
looked
at
more
efficient,
real
traffic
transfer
process.
A
I
Thank
you
for
your
present.
No,
I'm
done.
Thank
you
for
your
presentation
and
your
your
hard
work.
I
love
the
the
emphasis
on
team
culture
so
thanks
for
describing
what
you
gained
and
not
just
what
you
created.
My
question
is
simply
what
surprised
you,
the
most
and
I'll
hear
from
any
one
or
two
of
you.
S
W
I
would
say
the
various
way
we
learned
about
like
robotics,
because,
like
before,
I
didn't
know
how
like
self-driving
cars
or
trucks
work.
But
after
working
on
this
project,
I
learned
a
lot
about
it
and
it
was
really
interesting.
B
Yeah,
I
don't
have
really
any
questions
other
than
it
appears.
This
is
going
to
be
a
like
an
automatic
delivery
system.
Well,
that's
kind
of
cool.
What
I
appreciate
the
most
looking
at
you
all
up
here
is
all
the
collaboration
put
into
this
project
because
the
more
hands
the
more
heads,
the
better
the
solution.
So
I
appreciate
that.
AB
Yes,
thank
you
wow
what
an
incredible
group
of
young
men
and
women
that
are
standing
in
front
of
me
right
now
and
I
I
cannot
tell
you
how
incredibly
proud
I
am
for
you
to
be
bold
and
come
here
and
do
this
presentation
and
show
us
that
you
not
only
have
excelled
but
you've
clearly
won.
This
amazing
award
and
you've
gone
above
and
beyond,
and
I
am
incredibly
proud
of
you
and
just
extremely
thankful
for
you.
AB
So
my
question
is
how
many
of
you
have
already
made
the
decision
that
you're
going
to
take
this
incredible
gift
that
you
have
and
step
into
community
and
government
leadership,
because
there's
a
lot
of
people
in
here
that
we're
getting
older
and
you
guys
are
going
to
need
to
replace
us.
So
how
many
of
you
are
now
thinking
I
want
to
be
on
council.
I
want
to
run
for
office.
I
want
to
work
for
the
government,
because
you
are
extremely
gifted
and
thank
you
for
everything.
R
There
is
a
two
minute,
video
that
we
are
going
to
request
to
play
for
the
whatever
the
kids
played
the
robo
that
ran
in
the
state
tournament.
We
recorded
a
video
of
that.
So
if
we
can
quickly
play
the
two
minute
video
you
guys
can
see
the
actual
state
tournament.
If
you
can
please
let
us
do
so.
Thank
you.
A
Awesome
that
that
was
fantastic.
It
really
makes
me
wonder
what
I
was
doing
at
that
age.
You
know,
I
don't
remember
doing
things
that
were
so
so
amazing
and
definitely
I
think
the
future
is
bright
for
all
of
you,
like
I
said
to
you
in
in
our
meeting
earlier,
you
know,
isu
is
putting
together
school
of
engineering
and
I
wouldn't
be
surprised
to
see
some
of
you
there
and
actually
some
of
us
were
saying
you
know
maybe
shark
tank
too
so
that'd
be
awesome.
A
So
we're
going
to
move
to
the
next
step
in
the
next
item
in
our
agenda,
which
is
the
consent
agenda,
is
there
any
item
on
the
consent
agenda
that
any
member
of
the
council
would
like
to
have
removed.
A
Okay,
seeing
none
is
there
a
motion
to
approve
the
consent
agenda
as
presented.
A
Okay
motion
by
council,
member
ward
and
second
by
council
member
bolin.
If
you
could
go
ahead
and
vote.
A
Okay:
okay,
all
right
sounds
good.
Okay,
the
consent
agenda
passes
there
are
no
nays
to
announce
next
item
on
the
agenda
is
a
public.
AC
A
I
am
going
to
go
ahead
and
call
the
public
hearing
to
order
at
6
40
pm
and
turn
it
over
to
city
manager.
Gleason.
For
some
introductory
remarks,.
AD
AE
So
what's
before
us
is
a
series
of
cases,
starting
with
the
public
hearing,
it's
something
we
are
very
excited
about.
We
have
worked
for
a
long
time
with
quiktrip
corporation.
To
make
this
happen.
There
is
a
piece
of
property
slightly
over
80
acres.
It's
about
88
acres.
That
would
the
proposal
is
to
annex
this.
The
first
is
this
public
hearing
for
the
agreement
itself,
the
as
part
of
the
agreement,
the
first
15
acres
that
are
closest
to
west
market
street
would
be
proposed
to
be
a
b1
zoning.
AE
The
remaining
65
acres
or
so
would
be
remaining
as
agriculture.
With
no
immediate
plans
to
develop
the
annexation
would
allow
a
feeling
center
about
82.
000.
Excuse
me,
eight
two,
nine
two
square
foot
convenience
center
would
be
along
with
that
it
fits
with
our
comp
plan.
It's
tier
two
development
land
use
priority.
It's
land
that
is
immediately
adjacent
to
the
city's
incorporated
area
with
access
to
all
city
services.
AE
It's
also
designated
as
a
commercial
activity
center
and
then
the
part
that
that
would
remain
agriculture
closest
to
the
where
there's
residential
to
the
south.
It's
designated
for
new
neighborhood,
but
the
agreement
indicates
future
obligations
which
include
planning
and
infrastructure
improvements
that
include
the
extension
of
wiley
drive,
jc
parkway
improvements
to
bloomington
heights
roads,
along
with
new
sidewalks
multi-purpose
path
signal
monitor.
Modernization
is
part
of
this
related
improvements
to
allow
pedestrians
to
safely
cross
market
street
at
both
wiley
and
jc.
Parkway
also
included
our
extension
of
water
and
sewer
means
for
each
lot.
AE
A
Thank
you
and
I
believe
this
is
a.
A
Is
it
kim?
No?
No,
not
I'm
sorry,
not
you!
I'm
talking
about
the
quick
trip,
representative.
Okay,
if
they
could
come
forward.
AF
Yes,
mr
mayor
and
members
of
the
council,
my
name
is
john
pratt.
Thank
you
for
hearing
us
today,
I'm
a
long
time
resident
of
the
city
of
bloomington,
an
attorney
here
and
I'm
quick
trip.
Local
council.
AF
I
want
to
echo
what
kim
said
earlier
today.
We've
spent
many
many
hours
working
the
staff
on
this
project
over
the
last
year
and
we
couldn't
be
more
grateful
for
all
the
work
that
staff
has
done.
We've
met
with
lawyers,
engineers,
traffic
coordinators
and
illinois
department
of
transportation.
It's
been
a
lot
of
work
to
get
to
this
point
to
present
to
you
today,
and
so
I
appreciate
the
staff's
work
on
this
project.
I
also
want
to
thank
the
planning
commission.
We
had
two
hearings
before
the
planning
commission.
AF
Quiktrip
is
fully
invested
in
this
project.
It
has
purchased
the
land.
This
is
not
a
contingent
project,
they
purchased
the
land.
Quick
trip
is
here
already,
and
it's
ready
to
start
with
this
project
right
away.
As
kim
said
it's
over
an
80-acre
project,
we
had
to
buy
all
the
land
from
the
cellar
to
get
the
site
that
we
wanted.
So
we
did
and
we
want
to
bring
all
the
land
in
today.
We
don't
want
to
do
it
piecemeal.
We
want
to
bring
the
whole
80
and
make
it
part
of
this
city.
AF
As
kim
mentioned,
the
the
travel
center
and
our
development
fits
with
the
comprehensive
plan,
we
are
approving
streets,
we're
going
to
improve
bloomington
heights
road,
we're
going
to
improve
wiley
drive.
We
are
adding
streets,
we're
adding
keene
crossing
we're,
also
adding
jac,
parkway
and
extension
on
jc
parkway.
AF
We
are
improving
those
two
intersections,
we're
making
them
pedestrian
friendly,
adding
sidewalks
new,
stop
signs
and,
and
that
and
like
we
are
going
to
be
adding
sidewalks
that
don't
exist
now
along
bloomington
heights
road
along
market
street.
Those
things
don't
exist
now
and
we're
going
to
be
adding
those
all
that's
going
to
be
done
at
quick
trips
expense,
not
not
the
city's
expense
at
quick
tricks,
expense,
we're
also
adding
a
sewer,
we're
riding
the
sewer.
All
the
way
from
constitution
trail
all
the
way
up
to
marcus
street.
AF
Again,
that's
going
to
be
a
quick
trips
expense,
not
at
the
city's
expense
at
quick
trips,
expense
and
that
cert
city
sewer
will
service
market
street
our
development,
but
also
develop
this
next
to
us
and
perhaps
even
the
neighborhoods,
if
they
can,
if
they
wish
to
tap
on
so
quick
trip,
is
investing
in
our
city
and
all
this
will
help
bring
employment
opportunities,
sales
of
goods
and
services
along
market
street
to
our
citizens,
but
also
to
people
that
are
traveling
to
and
from
the
city
of
bloomington,
also
people
that
are
just
traveling
through
the
area.
AF
Obviously,
that's
going
to
keep
increased
revenue
for
our
city
and
property
tax
dollars
for
the
city
of
bloomington
and
for
the
other
taxing
bodies
such
as
unify,
so
we're
very
excited
about
this
project.
We
appreciate
all
the
help
we've
got
from
the
staff
to
get
to
this
point
and
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
to
gwen
kane
who's,
the
real
estate
project
manager,
with
quick
trip
to
introduce
quick
trip.
Okay,.
C
AG
So
my
name
is
gwen
keane,
I'm
with
quiktrip
in
july
I
will
celebrate
20
years
with
quiktrip,
so
it's
a
fantastic
company
to
work
for
and
it's
a
fantastic
company
to
represent.
AG
AG
We
feel
that
we
can
now
take
our
brand
nationwide
or
regionally
and
we're
very,
very
protective
about
our
branding
and
how
we
operate,
and
we
need
to
make
sure
that
we
can
maintain
the
culture
that
we
have
of
excellent
in
these
stores
and
we
believe,
with
our
security
systems
and
being
able
to
communicate
that
culture
that
we
can
do
that
and
bloomington
is
a
perfect
location
for
us
to
do
that.
So
this
is
what
we
call
our
gen
3
store
doesn't
mean
a
lot
to
you,
but
we
basically
developed
it
with
circulation
in
mind.
AG
AG
And,
as
I
mentioned,
quick
trips
branding
is
one
of
excellent
and
the
c
store
industry.
Quiktrip
is
typically
in
the
number
one
number
two
or
number
three
spot
we
usually
swap
in
and
out
with
companies
like
wawa
and
sheets
nationwide
market
source
surveys
tell
us
that
a
lot
of
other
nationwide
surveys
tell
us
that,
but
we
are
number
one
out
of
45
nationwide
chains
and
the
concentration
of
where
we
rank
the
highest
is
cleanliness,
friendliness,
great
service,
merchandise,
merchandise,
price
and
the
atmosphere
we
we
create.
AG
We
are
a
privately
held
company,
you
are
not
getting
a
franchise,
this
store
will
be
privately
held
by
quiktrip
and
it's
operated
out
of
the
tulsa
corporate
offices
there,
and
then
we
also
have
some
regional
offices,
so
we
don't
have
any
franchises
next
slide.
Please
and
again,
we
are
a
brand
of
excellence.
AG
We
also
appeared
on
other
lists
which
were
america's
privately
held
companies,
but
we're
also
a
best
employees
for
veterans
best
employees
for
diversity
and
america's
best
employees
by
state,
which
was
oklahoma,
but
we
also
were
recognized
as
one
of
the
top
100
brands,
consumers
love
and
for
a
gas
station,
so
to
speak.
We
count
ourselves
very
prideful
to
take
that
to
be
on
a
list
like
that
that
it's
a
recognized
brand
that
people
love
not
just
like
or
hey.
I
have
to
go
to,
but
they
love
next
slide
please.
AG
So
this
is
our
store.
This
is
typically
how
our
canopy
looks
next
slide.
This
is
the
internal
we've
done
some
changes
internally,
but
one
of
the
things
that
provoked
this
new
design
was
our
quick
trip
kitchens.
So
what
we
like
to
do
is
not
only
have
that
grab-and-go
food,
but
we
prepare
fresh
food
on
site
and
we
call
it
the
kitchens
so
we're
kind
of
not
just
a
convenience
store.
We
offer
a
lot
of
fresh
maine
foods
and,
ladies
that's
what
we
like
to
see.
We
don't
always
like
to
go
grab
it
off
the
shelf.
AG
AG
AG
So
this
is
our
our
check
stand
and
one
of
the
things
that
we
developed.
When
we
developed
our
multi-million
dollar
security
system,
we
were
able
to
take
our
employees
and
let
them
face
inside
the
store
for
better
monitoring,
because
now
we
have
the
entire
property
with
security
cameras
where
they
can
monitor
it.
Inside
the
store,
through
monitors,
as
well
as
be
more
present
within
the
store,
so
we
that
was
a
change
for
us
that
we
made
that's
working
out
very
well
for
the
stores
next
slide.
AG
So
quick
trip
employees,
so
we
provide
top
pay
for
top
people.
Our
average
assistant
manager
entry
level
is
now
actually
a
little
bit
higher
around
forty
thousand
dollars
a
year
and
starting
pay
for
chart.
Point
perks
has
actually
gone
up
to
eleven
dollars
per
hour,
so
we
do
provide
bonuses.
We
have
health
benefits
available
to
both
full
and
part-time
employees.
We
have
full
time
employee,
profit,
sharing
and
401ks
tuition
reimbursement.
AG
We
have
an
under
10
turnover
rate
within
the
industry
and
in
the
history
of
quiktrip,
no
employee
has
ever
been
laid
off
next
slide.
So
what
does
our
community
have?
Impact
here?
Well,
there'll
be
new
jobs.
I'm
going
to
be
very
forthcoming
because
we
want
our
culture
here
and
developed
at
the
store
we
will
bring
in
an
experienced
top
managerial
team,
so
the
store
manager
and
the
assistants
will
actually
be
brought
in.
So
we
can
then
communicate
and
teach
our
culture
at
this
store
to
maintain
the
brand
of
excellence.
AG
However,
we'll
have
other
full-time
and
part-time
employees
that
will
need
to
hire
from
the
community
and
then,
as
they
understand
in
our
culture,
and
are
able
to
take
over
the
store.
We
can
move
that
experience
team
someplace
else,
and
now
we
have
a
fully
experienced
culture,
quick
trip,
culture
team
here
in
the
bloomington
area,
so
we
also
contribute
five
percent
of
our
profits
to
local
community
and
charitable
organizations.
AG
We
also
are
a
national,
safe
place,
location
for
endangered
youth.
This
is
a
program
that
at
shelters
and
schools.
Children's
are
taught
that
if
you
need
help
or
if
a
woman
is
being
battered
or
needs
assistance,
if
you
need
help,
you
look
for
the
sign
of
the
national
safe
place
and
there
you
can
go
and
get
assistance
and
we
make
sure
that
our
employees
are
trained
on
how
to
take
care
of
that
person.
How
to
protect
that
person.
AG
What
different
agencies
or
authorities
need
to
be
contacted
in
order
that
person
can
stay
safe
until
the
right
assistance
can
come
and
be
with
them.
Next
slide,
so
now,
let's
get
to
the
real
stuff.
The
truck
stop.
You
know,
that's
the
thing
that
everyone's
concerned
about.
Do
we
really
want
a
truck
stop.
We
actually
very
purposely
call
this
a
travel
center,
because
we
can
kind
of
consider
ourselves
the
anti-truck
stop.
We
don't
have
a
lot
of
the
amenities
that
a
typical
truck
stop
would
have.
AG
We
have
recognized,
and
one
of
the
reasons
why
we
are
growing
in
this
area
is
that
we
see
that
short
hauling
is
on
the
rise.
The
days
of
people
going
new
york
to
l.a
and
all
over
the
country
for
weeks
on
end
are
really
coming
to
an
end.
You
have
more
people
that
want
to
spend
time
with
their
family,
and
so
a
lot
of
those
routes
are
broken
down
into
more
short-term
hauling.
AG
So
you
have
those
folks
that
want
to
go
st
louis
to
chicago
or
indianapolis
to
kansas
city,
and
they
don't
need
a
lot
of
the
amenities
and
they
really
don't
want
to
be
part
of
a
parking
lot
that
has
a
hundred
plus
truck
parking
spots.
So
we
don't
provide
showers,
we
don't
have
a
lounge,
there's,
no
indoor
seating,
we
don't
sell
any
pornography
or
adult
type
of
magazines.
AG
We
don't
cater
to
the
national
fleet
accounts.
Typically,
if
you're
under
a
national
fleet
account,
you
have
to
go
where
they
tell
you
to
go
in
order
to
get
all
of
those
benefits
and
rewards.
We
don't
do
that.
We
have
a
limited
number
of
fueling
bays
and
a
limited
number
of
truck
parking
in
order
that
we
are
the
smaller
pond
for
the
folks
that
really
just
want
to
come
in
get
their
fuel,
maybe
go
get
a
snackle
pizza,
maybe
do
a
little
bit
of
paperwork
and
be
on
their
way.
Typically,
they
don't
park.
AG
That's
why
we
have
very
limited
parking
at
this
location
next
slide.
So
what
is
our
guarantee?
We
guarantee
quality
and
excellence
in
everything
that
we
do
and
that's
something
that
we
take
very
seriously
and
again
I
work
for
a
great
company,
I'm
very
proud
of
the
product
that
we
have
and
that
we
can
bring
to
your
community
and
I'm
happy
to
answer
any
questions
that
I
might
be
able
to
in
the
next
slides.
I
do
have
the
site
plan.
I
also
have
a
signed
plan.
AG
We
can
pass
those
that's
an
ariel
of
the
one
in
waco
that
we
just
opened
a
few
months
ago,
one
more
two
more
one
more
there
we
go
so
on
that
site
plan
which
we
call
it.
The
signage
plan
you'll
see
that
we
have
called
out
that
at
each
of
the
truck
instances
there
will
be
a
sign
that
says
no
long-term
parking.
We
don't
want
someone
showing
up
at
eight
o'clock
in
the
morning
and
not
leaving
until
eight
o'clock
at
night.
AG
We
don't
want
them
showing
up
at
eight
o'clock
in
the
evening
and
not
leaving
until
eight
o'clock
in
the
morning.
We
feel
the
best
way
to
communicate,
that
is
to
say
no
long-term
parking
and
we
put
that
sign
at
each
of
those
truck
entrances,
we'll
also
reference
the
ordinance
in
which
we're
approved
under
so
that
they
understand.
This,
isn't
just
something
that
we're
saying,
but
the
city
as
a
whole
does
not
want.
The
next
slide
is
a
copy
of
our
landscape
plan.
At
the
last
planning
commission
meeting,
we
were
asked
about
putting
evergreens
along
there.
AG
The
concerns
have
been
noise
screening.
One
thing
the
trucks
will
back
in
so
the
lights
on
the
trucks
will
not
cast
in
the
in
the
direction
of
the
residential
area.
The
other
thing,
though,
is
we
did
go
on,
and
not
only
did
we
put
10
evergreen
trees,
we
put
25,
so
we
added
an
extensive
row,
so
it
looked
appropriate.
It's
aesthetically
nice
and
we've
honored.
AG
What
was
requested
of
us,
which
was
to
try
to
provide
a
little
more
screening,
a
little
more
noise
absorption,
a
couple
other
things
we
are
having
the
field
this
this
summer
is
going
to
have
another
crop.
You
couldn't
think
of
the
word
crop
we
are
going
to
have
a
crop.
AG
We
think
that,
with
the
openness
of
that
area
that
we
will
be
able
to
that
will
help
with
some
of
the
issues
that
were
brought
forward,
so
that
is
going
to
be
farmed
this
summer
and
we
also
have
a
church
group
that
is
helping
us
with
the
trash
we
think
by
having
the
crop
that'll
help
help
with
trash
as
well.
So
I
hope
I've
asked
answered
some
of
the
questions
that
you
might
have
already
had,
but
if
you
have
more,
I'm
happy
to
answer
them
the
best
of
my
ability.
AG
A
C
We
do
we
have
three
people
here
to
testify.
The
first
is
shannon
ramirez.
C
G
C
AA
AA
AH
AA
AH
AH
My
neighborhood
doesn't
think
we
need
it,
but
I
know
that
you
guys
want
to
build
up
the
community.
I
just
think
a
better
way
of
utilizing
that
space
would
be
putting
homes
the
guy
not
too
long
ago
said.
We
only
have
nine
houses
on
the
market
caribbean's
bringing
in
so
many
new
new
employees
and
people.
AH
AH
Just
I
try
to
express
this
to
the
planning
commission,
but
the
site
is
on
money.
The
site
is
on
the
fuel
tax
and
the
infrastructure
of
of
of
free
streets.
You
guys
are,
and
that's
just
part
of
the
quick
trip
proposal
hell
yeah.
The
city
wants
to
jump
on
board
because
you're
they're,
giving
you
guys
a
lot
of
things
for
you
to
to
bring
them
in.
I'm
gonna
give
you
two
streets
and
then
we're
gonna,
replace
this
part
of
the
street
and
we're
gonna,
add
sidewalks
and
then
we're
gonna.
AH
It's
looking
out
your
window,
those
lights
coming
in
your
bedroom
windows,
your
kids,
and
when
they
build
up
that
area
to
merge
the
residential
with
commercial
because
they
say
you
know,
I'm
gonna,
leave
it
and
we're
gonna.
Leave
it
agriculture,
okay!
Well,
how
are
you
gonna
merge
those
two
you're
gonna
put
mix,
you're
gonna,
put
a
let's
say:
mixed
residential
housing.

Q
Hi,
my
name
is
john
lehman
and
I
live
on
washburn
street,
so
that
would
be
out
my
back
door,
my
back
door.
I
just
have
some
concern
right
now.
I
have
a
large
amount
of
trash
that
goes
into
my
yard,
all
the
time
with
nothing
built
there
and
all
that,
and
then
I
have
with
the
noise
and
the
light
pollution.
Q

And
next
last
up
we
have
denise

AA
AI
Good
evening,
thanks
for
hearing
us,
quick
trip
has
told
us
that
they
they
do
not
encourage
overnight
parking,
but
also
cannot
promise
that
it
won't
happen.
AI
We've
reached
out
to
the
ta
travel
center
down
the
road
and
asked
their
employees
about
their
parking.
The
employees
said
most
nights.
There
is
plenty
of
parking
spaces
available,
despite
165
overnight
parking
spaces
available
at
ta
travel
center
and
95
overnight
parking
spaces
at
pilot
travel
center.
Semi
trucks
are
often
parked
with
engines
on
and
humming
on,
caroline
street
next
to
the
pilot,
and
also
at
walmart.
AI
Well,
if
the
police
aren't
enforced,
enforcing
no
parking
on
caroline
street,
how
can
our
neighborhood
be
protected
from
semi
trucks
park
with
engines
on
along
jc,
parkway
and
keene
street
additions.
C
Is
no
further
public
testimony.
A
AJ
Yes,
thank
you,
I'm
sure
it's
humbling.
You
know
to
hear
the
comments.
I
I
know
you've
I've
read
about
you,
you,
you
must
travel
a
ton
yourself.
I.
AI
AJ
Do
so
thank
you
for
sharing
your
story.
How
many
locations
does
quick
trip
currently
have.
AG
We
we
are
almost
at
the
900
mark.
We've
opened
up
what
this
is,
what
we
call
the
remote
store
network
because,
again
we're
not
concentrated
in
an
area
we
have
opened
approximately
10
of
those,
and
they
have
done
wonderfully
they've
been
very
well
received.
We're
very
happy
that
our
culture
is
being
maintained
in
those
locations.
AJ
So
I've
read
a
lot
about
your
company
culture.
Actually
I
mean
it's
a
very
large,
privately
held
company,
and
certainly
the
affirmation
by
your
associates
and
how
they
respond
to
surveys
is
very
consistent
with
that
out
of
those
900
locations.
As
of
today,
how
many
of
those
locations
have
video
gambling
terminals
in
them.
AG
I'm
grinning
because
I've
worked
for
a
quick
trip
for
20
years
and
before
I
held
the
position
that
I
held
now,
I
spent
10
years
in
legal
handling
claims.
So
when
I
heard
we
were
doing
this,
I
I
have
to
say
at
first
I
thought:
are
we
crazy
and
so
because
of
that
branding
I
personally
was
concerned.
What
does
this
do
to
a
quick
trip
branding
just
as
you've
done
your
investigation
as
well?
Well,
I
had
to
go
to
school
so
to
speak
about
this
whole
aspect
of
video
gaming.
AG
AG
So
what
we're
finding
is,
I
had
to
learn
about
this
as
well,
and
the
appeal
in
a
c
store
or
a
travel
center
is
not
who
you
would
typically
think
it
would
be.
I
think
of
it
as
it's
my
mom,
my
mom
is
72
years
old.
She
does
not
want
to
go
to
a
bar.
She
does
not
want
to
go
to
a
casino,
because
it's
too
overwhelming,
but
would
she
want
to
go
to
a
quick
trip?
Maybe
after
she's
fueled
or
got
a
pizza
and
maybe
spend
20
minutes?
AG
AG
We
all
have
these
connotations
of
what
it
does
and
who
it
appeals
to,
but
we
also
find
that
it
appeals
to
people
who
don't
want
to
be
in
a
bar
type
of
situation
who
have
alcohol
additions
and
other
issues,
but
they
still
want
to
entertain
by
gaming,
so
it
has
fallen
along
the
same
lines
as
what
we
consider
other
things,
such
as
alcohol
or
other
type
of
things,
that
we
call
the
quote-unquote
sin
city.
The
sin
taxes,
sometimes
is
what
it's
referred
to,
but
I
understand
it
is
disconcerting.
AJ
AH
AG
So
the
definition
of
the
truck
stop
under
your
code.
We
would
probably
fall
under
that
under
different
sections
of
your
code.
We
might
fall
under
something
else.
It's
all
how
it's
defined
at
the
time
we
like
to
differentiate
ourselves
by
calling
it
a
travel
center,
because
we
don't
provide
the
amenities
that
typical
truckers,
who
want
to
stay
long
term
will
want
at
a
facility
that
doesn't
mean
that
someone
doesn't
want
to
sit
for
10
minutes
or
20
bucks
worth
of
entertaining
themselves.
AG
AG
AG
AG
One
thing
that
I
I
want
to
make
sure
that
I
communicate
today
is
we're
making
a
multi-million
dollar
long-term
investment.
We
don't
go
into
an
a
community
such
as
bloomington
or
any
city
that
we
go
into
kind
of
haphazard.
We
spent
a
year
working
with
your
staff.
We
spent
far
much
a
lot
more
time
before
that
doing
an
analysis
on
whether
or
not
we
feel
that
we
can
maintain
a
long-term
presence
here
in
bloomington.
AG
We
know
that
maybe
there's
a
perception
that
right
now,
you
don't
need
a
fuel
station.
I
would
disagree
with
that.
Our
analysis
indicates
that,
because
of
your
growth,
that
we
can
sustain
and
do
very
good
in
this
area,
because
of
not
only
the
growth
that
you
have
now,
but
the
future
projected
growth
and
that's
not
with
any
competitor
going
away,
but
with
the
competitors
that
are
currently
in
business.
However,
we
still
need,
if
we're
focusing
long
term
on
an
investment.
AJ
So
just
the
last
question,
so
you
would
not
build
this
if
you
are
not
given
a
video
gaming
terminal.
So
when
we
talk
about
the
investment
in
the
community
and
all
of
the
good
things
about
the
culture,
were
it
not
for
a
gaming
license,
for
which,
of
course,
we
all
know
34
cents
per
dollar
is
taxed,
29
cents
of
that
goes
to
the
state
of
illinois.
AJ
AG
I
would
not
say
that
in
absolute
terms
at
all,
we
would
have
to
factor
that
in
because
revenue
from
video
gaming
goes
into
our
overall
factor
on
whether
or
not
we
believe
this
location
could
be
profitable.
What
we
would
ask
is:
is
it
really
fair
for
new
development
to
be
held
back
from
a
revenue
source
when
others
right
across
the
interstate,
three
of
which
that
are
less
than
a
mile,
have
that
opportunity
for
a
revenue
stream.
AJ
AJ
So
you
see,
my
concern
is
looking
out
for
this
community
as
a
whole
and
realizing
the
numbers
which
are
available
very
easily
for
anyone
to
look
at
and
download
it's
a
significant
non-value-added
loss
to
those
who
are
playing
these
games
at
the
then
benefit
of
the
state
of
illinois,
not
so
much
bloomington
and
those
who
are
the
operators,
many
of
whom
are
not
really
our
local
people
here
in
the
community.
So
I
thank
you
for
answering
my
questions,
though.
I
appreciate
that
no.
AG
AJ
A
Okay,
well,
thank
you.
Councilman
amy,.
I
Thank
you
mayor
and
thank
you
for
the
presentation.
I
have
two
questions
and
the
second
one
might
go
back
to
city
staff.
The
first
question
is:
if,
if
you've
had
similar
concerns
in
other
communities
such
as
waco
or
I
was
trying
to
think
of
something
somewhat
comparable,
stillwater
oklahoma
doesn't
quite
have
the
population
the
school
and
yeah.
You
get
get
the
drift
about
the
impact
of
a
quick
trip,
travel
center
near
residential
areas.
I
Have
you
found
that
that
people
residents
neighborhoods
folks
who
may
have
complained
about
the
potential
problems?
Have
you
been
able
to
mitigate
that
through
signage
or
creating
a
green
shield?
If
you
will
between
the
facility
and
the
community
does
has
that
worked?
What
have
you
seen
evolve
over
time
when
these
establishments
happen
and
in
a
nutshell,
what
what
is
that
you
know
cohabitation
between
a
place
like
a
truck
a
travel
center
and
a
residential
neighborhood
that
very
well
will
be
expanding
in
the
future
to
other
residents.
Sure.
AG
So
there's
one
one
of
the
examples
I
I
know
because
I
dealt
with
the
store
directly
was
they
were
very
strong
about
having
an
ordinance
passed
about
no
overnight
parking.
Unfortunately,
some
people
think
well
no
overnight
parking.
If
I
go
there
and
I
drive
by
at
two
o'clock
in
the
morning,
well
then
the
lot
should
be
empty,
but
that's
not
the
case,
because
if
a
truck
driver
comes
in
at
2
a.m
and
they
leave
at
3
a.m.
Well,
then,
that's
not
overnight,
so
we
have
a
location
there
in
the
st
louis
area.
AG
That
is
actually
a
little
bit
closer
than
the
60
acres
that
separates
us
and
most
the
residents.
We
have.
We
had
a
recent
complaint.
I
got
a
call
from
the
aldermen
I
discussed
with
the
aldermen
I
went
out.
I
sat
in
the
neighborhood,
I
listened
when
I,
when
we
nailed
it
down,
it
was
the
other
business
that
was
near
it.
Their
trucks
were
starting
up
at
five
and
six
in
the
morning.
So
there
was
this
misconception
that
the
noise
was
coming
from
us
when
we
actually
drilled
down.
AG
It
was
actually
coming
from
this
coming
from
a
different
business.
What
we
find,
though,
is
the
highway.
Noise
is
so
prevalent
along
these
corridors
because
that's
where
we're
located
we're
not
five
miles
into
into
the
community,
we're
right
off
of
the
frontage
right
off
of
an
interstate
highway,
and
so
I
did
that
very
thing.
That's
part
of
what
I
do
is
I
go
and
I
park,
and
I
just
sit
there
with
my
windows
down
and
it's
what
do
I
hear
and
when
I'm
I'm
sitting
in
that
area,
the
prevalent
noise
is
constant,
highway
noise.
AG
AG
AG
This
is
one
of
the
reasons
why
we
wanted
to
go
on
and
annex
in
the
entire
property.
So
in
the
future
the
development
could
happen
more
quickly
and
that
these
steps
didn't
have
to
be
gone
through.
However,
they
will
still
have
a
process
to
rezone
and
they
will
still
come
before
you
with
sight
plans
with
sony.
I
And
the
story,
the
anecdote
you
provided
about
the
community,
where
you
heard
from
an
older
men
regarding
a
complaint
and
that
it
turned
out
to
be
another
facility.
Was
it
because
of
the
the
the
care
that
kwik
trip
took
to
keep
it
from
rising
to
that
level.
AG
Yes,
we
we
actually
built
up
a
berm
in
lieu
of
the
extensive
evergreen
row
that
we
put
a
berm
would
not
be
prudent.
So
that's
why
we
went
on
you
know
when
we
looked
at
it,
I
was
you
know.
I
know
that
the
request
was
for
10,
but
my
response
to
our
team
was:
we
need
to
make
it
aesthetically
pleasing
and
we
need
to
get
it
as
much
as
we
can
without
building
on
top
of
each
other.
Well
they'll,
where
they'll
die
out.
So
that's
why
we
put
the
entire
row
back
there.
AG
We
also
have
a
fence.
The
fence
is
not
necessarily
for
sound
or
noise
absorption.
The
fence
is
a
trash
catcher,
so
we
have
screening
at
the
bottom
of
the
fence
and
it's
actually
to
help
prevent
any
of
that
trash
blowing
over
into
the
other
area.
I
think
the
reason
why
I
say
that
anecdote
is
we
take
these
very
seriously.
We
don't
just
blow.
You
know
somebody's
upset
about
that.
We
honestly
look
into
the
situations
and
see
okay,
now
that
we're
here
now
that
everybody
understands
what
the
change
actually
became.
I
Thank
you
so
so.
My
second
question
reflects
back
on
the
the
chairman's
comments
during
the
planning
hearing
about
the
cost
of
maintaining
the
infrastructure
to
the
city
over
time,
and
I
appreciate
some
of
the
responses
that
we
received
about
that.
But
just
for
the
the
record
I
was
hoping
you
could
speak
to
that
now
that
more
research
has
been
conducted
in
terms
of
of
the
long
range
cost
or
projected
cost,
because
nobody
has
a
crystal
ball.
AG
As
far
as
the
maintenance
goes,
that
that
number
is
a
challenge.
What
I
can
tell
you
is
with
the
plans
that
we
have
right
now,
we're
looking
at
putting
in
approximately
1.6
to
2.7
million
dollars
in
infrastructure.
Now.
Is
that
what
it
would
take
to
maintain
it?
Absolutely
not
one
you're
getting
brand
new
everything,
that's
completely
up
to
specs
and
standards
of
today.
Idot
standards
are
very
high
on
on
infrastructure.
AG
We
also
have
our
own
standards,
which
a
lot
of
times.
I
cannot,
I
can't
say,
with
certainty
now,
but
I
will
tell
you
a
lot
of
times
they're
higher
than
even
what
we
require,
because
we
understand
for
our
own
purposes.
We
don't
want
a
tractor,
trailer
or
or
you
coming
into
the
store
going
dad
gummit.
AG
We
want
you
to
be
able
to
come
in
with
convenience,
get
your
fuel,
get
your
coffee
and
be
on
your
way
and
you're
just
happy,
as
can
be
because
you
came
in
and
got
your
coffee
and
you
got
on
your
way
and
you
didn't
have
anything
that
held
you
up.
So
when
we
put
in
infrastructure,
we
put
it
in
with
the
mind
set
of
we
want
this
to
last.
We
don't
want
a
road
torn
up
that
nobody's
going
to
come,
because
now
the
road's
torn
up
so
we're
very,
very
specific
and
very
we.
A
Okay,
thank
you,
council,
member
ward,.
Z
Yeah
I
have
questions.
Thank
you
for
the
presentation
and
thank
you
to
the
public
for
the
comments.
I
just
have
a
couple
questions
about
the
expected
revenues
from
fuel
taxes
and
sales
tax.
AG
What
I
can
tell
you
is
the
numbers
in
the
analysis
that
we
do
are
highly
proprietary.
However,
on
average
a
quick
trip
contributes
over
a
million
dollars
per
store
in
state
and
local
taxes.
This
is
a
travel
center.
That
average
is
based
on
just
a
I
hate
to
say
it
this
way,
a
regular
c
store,
so
that
amount
would
be
even
greater
seeing
that
this
is
a
travel
center,
a
million
dollars
per
per
location.
Z
AG
K
K
K
Go
ahead,
thank
you.
So
thank
you
for
the
presentation
just
a
couple
of
quick
follow-ups
so-
and
this
is
probably
be
more
for
planning,
but
for
that
lot
that's
going
to
be
60
acres
owned
agriculture.
K
There
would
need
to
be
a
separate
public
hearing
to
determine
to
to
give
approval
to
something
else
going
in
there
is
that
correct.
AE
Yeah
likely
anything
would
need
a
subdivision,
so
it
would
be
an
update
to
the
preliminary
plan
because
it
just
shows
it
as
one
giant
blob.
One
parcel
left
over
and
the
also
final
plat
will
come
in
for
that
with
again
more
specific,
so
you
would
need
that
rezoning
would
likely
be
required
as
well.
There's
not
much
you
can
do
in
ag.
K
AG
So
because
of
the
unknown
nature
of
where
that
development
is
going,
if
it
were
to
go
residential,
whoever
would
develop
that
would
need
to
continue
through
the
road,
the
roads,
jc,
parkway
and
wiley
through
that
development,
because
we
don't
know
how
it's
going
to
develop.
We
didn't
show
that
on
any
of
the
the
plans,
but
whoever
would
develop
that
quitrip
would
communicate
at
the
time
that
we're
you
know,
selling
it
or
in
that
process
that
they
understand
that
infrastructure
would
have
to
be
carried
through.
A
Okay,
thank
you.
I
don't
see
any
other
lights
and
there's
nobody
else
virtually.
So
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
close
the
public
hearing
at
7
34
and
we
are
going
to
move
on
to
the
next
item
on
the
agenda,
which
is
a
regular
agenda.
A
We
have.
I
should
say
that
we
have
items
eight,
a
through
d
that
are
related
to
this
particular
development,
and
I
know
we've
already
had
a
number
of
questions
already.
A
But
you
know
as
we
get
to
it,
then
we
can
start
voting
on
on
each
item.
I
just
wanted
to
to
mention
that,
so
we
can
have
discussion
overall
if
need
be,
and
then
after
that,
we'll
we'll
do
the
voting
so
item.
Eight
a
is
a
consideration
and
action
on
a
resolution
approving
an
annexation
agreement
with
quick
trip
corporation
for
land
located
west
at
I-55,
south
of
west
market
street
in
mclean,
county
considered,
80,
acres,
more
or
less,
as
requested
by
the
economic
and
community
development
department.
G
AD
Thank
you,
mayor
and
council,
and
to
the
community,
like
the
mayor,
was
saying
under
the
regular
agenda
items,
nine
a
b,
c
and
d
will
be
called
individually,
but
we
felt
that
there
was
an
opportunity
to
speak
to
this
as
staff
under
this
first
one.
I
will
say
this:
while
staff
recommends
the
support
and
the
approval
of
each
of
these
four
items
related
to
this
project.
AD
The
one
thing
that
I'll
share
more
so
for
the
community's
sake
that,
even
if
the
decision
is
to
approve
this
and
it's
against,
you
know
what
the
subdivision
wants.
The
integrity
of
the
process
has
actually
been
very
impressive.
AD
The
planned
commission
the
steps
that
they
took
on
behalf
of
this
project,
it's
something
that
has
come
together,
I
believe
very
well,
and
the
willingness
on
the
part
of
quiktrip
in
this
development
appreciate
the
extras,
if
you
will,
that
were
considered
at
the
request
of
staff
and
the
residents
that
were
heard
and
also
the
elected
officials
like
I
mentioned
that
before
kimberly.
What
I'm
going
to
do
is
each
time
this
item
is
called
by
the
mayor.
AE
Yeah
and
just
to
clarify
so
with
the
public
hearing
portion
done
now,
there's
no
new
evidence.
So
this
the
resolution
is
what
is
before
you
now
so
by
voting
on
positively
on
this
resolution,
you'll
be
agreeing
with
and
adopting
the
the
annexation
agreement.
AK
Thanks
mayor
and
if
there
is
a
motion
to
approve
the
resolution,
improving
the
annexation
agreement,
staff
is
recommending
one
clarification
that
that
motion
be
to
approve
it
as
amended.
The
amended
amendment
would
be
in
section
9
under
video
gaming
there
we
we
say
that
the
gaming
license
can
be
issued
if
a
truck
stop
is
developed
and
since
there
are
different
definitions
of
truck
stop,
our
recommendation
is
to
add
the
language
as
defined
in
chapter
7,
article
13
of
the
city
code,
including
as
either
a
regular
truck,
stop
or
a
large
truck
stop.
AK
A
Sounds
good,
is
there
council
member
money.
AJ
So
I
I
do.
I
know
I
brought
that
up
this
morning,
I'm
curious
the
process
of
making
an
amendment
like
that
that
is
material
to
many
people
without
it
being
presented
in
our
packet
to
the
public
48
hours
in
advance
of
this
meeting.
AK
I
May
I
make
one
more
comment
before
we
sure
I
just
want
to
say
that
I
see
a
lot
of
positives
for
this
development
and
as
a
community,
it
does
provide
solid
infrastructure
and
and
potentially
will
help
the
residential
development
on
the
west
side
of
town,
and
it
provides
revenue
through
taxation
which
we
we
are
always
glad
to
get.
I
However,
there
are
a
variety
of
concerns
that
have
surfaced.
I've
heard
environmental
concerns
quality
of
life
concerns,
as
well
as
how
well
we
have
assessed
the
end
game
financially
in
terms
of
maintenance.
Although
we
I
do
appreciate
the
work
that
you've
done
to
address
that
question,
and
I
appreciate
the
time
that
staff
has
taken
to
address
all
of
our
concerns
for
for
a
while.
In
the
end,
I
will
not
be
supporting
this
and
voting
no
to
represent
some
of
the
legitimate
concerns
that
have
been
raised.
I
just
wanted
to
provide
that
rationale.
AJ
I
just
want
to
say
that
you
know
I
agree.
There
are
many
positives
associated
with
this.
I
do
believe
for
in
the
future.
B
Yeah,
I
appreciate
the
explanation
you
answered
many
of
the
questions
that
I've
been
asking
all
along.
I
have
to
agree
with
the
chairman
of
the
planning,
commission
and
also
councilmember
montany,
about
having
more
specific
or
figures.
I'm
a
I'm.
A
numbers
person
I
like
to
see
return
on
investment
and
the
site
plan
is
very
difficult
to
to
see
it's
very
small
and
I'm
assuming
that
there's
going
to
be
three
lanes
on
each
street
and
we
do
the
calculations
of
lane
miles.
So
the
city
has
800
lane
miles
and
we're
going
to
be.
B
Adding
x
amount
just
around
this
development
and
we
are
struggling
to
keep
up
with
the
older
infrastructure,
and
I
would
like
to
have
known
how
much
tax
revenue
in
a
general
sense
from
gas
would
be
coming
into
the
community
to
address
all
those
streets
that
we
need
to
repair,
and
I
know
that
20
years
down,
the
line
those
streets
will
need
to
be
repaired
and
they
will
be
the
responsibility
of
the
city.
So
those
kind
of
figures
I'd
like
to
have
in
advance
to
address
some
of
the
concerns
from
the
community.
B
B
AB
Thank
you,
oh
thank
you,
so
it
it
appears
that
we're
discussing
all
four
of
these
items
and
that's
what
I'm
my
comments
are
going
to
be
directed
to
is
all
of
these.
In
regards
to
this
I'm
going
to
be
supporting,
I
think
I.
AB
AB
AB
We
are
missing.
We
are
missing
that
piece
of
this
bubble,
so
city
manager,
I'm
kind
of
going
to
look
at
you
and
say
you
know.
This
is
a
great
concern
to
me
and
you
know
I.
I
know
that
we
need
to
have
that
conversation.
So
is
this
something
that
I
I
put
out
a?
What
are
they
an
initiative
for,
or
what
do
I.
AD
I
don't
think
I
I
don't
think
a
council
initiative
would
be
required.
This
is
sort
of
a
standing
conversation
at
council.
AB
I
I
believe
that
would
suffice
my
question
and
that
would
allow
me
to
pass
and
and
and
approve
of
all
of
this
and
and
get
this
this
place
built
and
get
it
done
if
we,
if
you
can
do
that
for
me,
please
thank
you.
F
Thank
you
mayor.
Thank
you
for
the
presentation
this
evening.
I
was,
I
really
enjoyed
hearing
a
bit
more
about
the
company
and
also
thank
you
for
the
city
to
the
city
staff.
I
know
this
has
been
a
long
term
longitudinal
project
with
lots
of
people
involved.
I
think,
as
councilmember
member
bowlin
mentioned,
I
I
I
plan
to
support
this.
This
item
I
think,
building
this
travel
center
will
help
the
city
generate
revenue.
F
Tax
revenue
it
was,
it
was
set
to
lose
every
council
meeting
I
sit
in
someone
is
talking
about
the
state
of
roads
in
bloomington.
You
know,
and
I
think
the
future
of
our
roads
depends
on
the
fro.
Excuse
me
on
the
motor
fuel
tax
and
I
suspect
that
this
gas
station
will
be
used
by
people
on
their
way
to
somewhere
else
and
help
fund
our
roads
in
ways
that
are
much
needed.
As
many
people
have
pointed
out.
I
also
recognize
that
quick
trip
is
the
company
itself
is
paying
for
the
nexation
costs.
F
Street
costs
traffic
control,
changes,
tap-on
fees,
infrastructure
upgrades,
as
you've
mentioned
earlier,
on
in
your
presentation,
100
of
those
things
that
could
cost
the
city
money
and
to
be
fair.
I
understand
that
you
know
the
long
term
of
road
maintenance
and
infrastructure
cannot
be
covered
this
time,
but
I
think
those
things
will
be
paid
for
with
the
tax
revenue
that
is
generated
from
this
project,
and
so
I
I
thank
you
for
coming
here
today
and
I
look
forward
to
seeing
this
move
forward.
Thank
you.
A
Okay,
yes
sure
I
know
council
member
craig
cradle,
do
you
have
questions
before
I
forget
about
you
or
comments.
K
No,
no,
I
do
not
marry.
Thank
you.
Z
You
know
I
do
have
comments.
I
will
be
supporting
this.
Z
A
AJ
AD
No
agreement
has
been
finalized,
but
the
conversation
on
some
of
the
revenue
streams
that
the
city
has
is
something
that
will
be
brought
before
council.
You
know
in
the
future
likely
the
retreat
that's
already
set
for
late
summer
and
it's
something
for
the
entire
council
to
discuss
some
of
the
possibilities
with
the
revenue
streams
that
we
have.
AJ
C
AK
And
as
you're
voting
mayor,
you
will
actually
vote
on
this
measure
as
well.
The
approval
of
an
annexation
agreement
by
state
statute
requires
a
two-thirds
vote,
and
so
by
the
municipal
code,
the
mayor
does
vote
in
those
situations
where
a
greater
than
a
majority
is
holding
office
and
the
two-thirds
vote
is
of
those
holding
office.
A
The
next
item
on
the
agenda
is
consideration.
Action
on
approving
or
on
an
ordinance
approving
the
annexation
of
land
located
west
of
I-55
and
south
of
west
market
street
in
mclean.
County
illinois
consists
of
80
acres,
more
or
less
to
the
city
of
bloomington
and
an
ordinance
providing
for
zoning
map,
amendment
for
annex
property
to
b1,
general
commercial
district
and
a
agricultural
district
zoning,
as
requested
by
the
economic
development
and
community
development
department.
AE
Thank
you
mayor.
This
is
the
vote
to
bring
them
into
the
city.
This
is
the
petition
to
annex
the
way
agreements
work.
There
could
be
20
years
between
your
last
vote
and
this
vote.
I'm
not
sure
we
even
made
it
a
minute
so
just
something
to
keep
in
mind.
So
this
is
what
brings
them
in
it
makes
it
the
agreement
official
and
then
from
there
on
we'll
pull
from
that.
A
Okay
sounds
good.
I
know
we've
had
quite
a
bit
of
conversation
already
on
this.
Does
anybody
have
anything
else
that
they'd
like
to
add
before
we
go
to
a
motion.
I
I
make
a
motion
to
approve,
as
presented.
Okay.
A
A
A
Agenda
item
c
consideration
and
action
on
an
ordinance
approving
a
prop
preliminary
plan
for
property
located.
We
all
know
where
it's
located.
AE
This
is
the
preliminary
plan.
This
is
kind
of
the
palette
being
created
for
subdivision,
so
this
shows
the
intent
that
the
individual
lots,
the
the
three
commercial
lots,
the
two
out:
lots
that
are
about
15
acres.
It
shows
the
placement
of
the
roads,
the
adjustment
of
the
intersections.
It
shows
the
the
larger
piece
that
would
be
the
ag.
AE
It
basically
outlines
what
the
future
subdivision
will
look
like
in
the
future.
Not
tonight
you
will
see
future
requests.
The
final
plot
comes
before
you
as
they
start
as
development
occurs.
So
this
is
just
a
preliminary
plan,
no
different
than
any
other
preliminary
plan
that
you've
seen
come
before
you.
It's
been
through
the
same
public
hearing
process
again
we're
just
all
right
in
a
row.
B
So
I'm
just
curious
where
wiley
drive
might
go,
because
when
I,
when
I
go
when
I
go
to
wiley
drive
from
where
I
live,
I
take
rabbit
hill
road
and
you
know
through
the
back
there
and
there's
also
going
to
be
an
extension
for
bloomington
heights
road.
So
I'm
just
kind
of
I'm
confused
as
to
what
that's
going
to
look
like
it's
not
has.
This
has
to
do
with
the
planning
and
the
psych
plan.
B
AE
I
can
at
least
give
an
answer,
so
it's
it's
in
the
agreement
that
it
will
come
down
as
far
as
where
it's
unknown
and
it's
okay.
So
it
depends
on
what
comes
in
so
that's
kind
of
on
purpose,
but
you
will
see
that
there
were
additional
roads.
Added,
like
I
said
intersections,
were
straightened.
It
didn't
make
more
sense
for
turning
radius
signalization,
adding
in
the
other,
the
additional
infrastructure,
the
multipurpose
path,
the
sidewalks
and
all
those
pieces.
But
when
that
piece
does
punch
through,
you
will
see
it
again.
B
AG
V
AG
A
Okay,
the
item
passes
there
are
no
days
to
announce
and
now
moving
on
to
item
9d
consideration
and
action
on
an
ordinance
approving
a
site
plan
for
a
vehicle
fueling
station
in
the
b1
commercial
district
for
property
located
at
west
market
street,
as
requested
by
the
economic
and
community
development
department.
Kimberly.
AE
Thank
you
mayor
for
this
case
we're
in
a
little
bit
of
a
time
warp
again.
We
went
through
20
years
really
fast,
but
now
the
the
legislative
site
review
is
for
the
quick
trip
location
that
lot
itself
and
that's
because
being
zone
b,
one
there's
a
requirement
now,
with
the
latest
code,
update
that
legislative
site
review
is
required,
the
the
part
of
the
reason
I
said
a
little
bit
of
a
time
warp.
AE
This
has
to
be
approved
contingent
on
the
final
plats,
because
technically
there's
no
lot
that
we're
attaching
it
to
and
it
has
to
be
final
planted.
So
why
do
you
have
it
now?
Originally
we
tried
to
kind
of
streamline
everything,
but
for
a
number
of
reasons
we
decided
to
peel
back
on
the
streamlining,
but
we've
already
had
this
set
up
for
the
public
hearing,
so
it's
been
through
the
public
hearing
process.
So
again
this
enables
a
building
permit.
Can
they
go
get
one
for
this?
Not
yet
they
have
a
lot
more
work
to
do.
AE
There's
that
final
plot,
which
entitles
en
entails
the
construction
plans,
the
infrastructure,
a
whole
lot
of
pieces
are
going
to
come
next.
So
it's
a
contingent
approval.
AK
A
AG
Like
to
again
echo
john's
words
and
thanking
all
of
you,
the
staff
all
of
the
time,
the
plan
commission
that
you
all
have
spent
in
looking
on
this.
I
know
that
this
has
been
a
lot
to
consider
and
we're
very
grateful.
We're
very
excited
about
coming
to
bloomington,
and
I
also
want
to
thank
all
of
the
residents.
Their
feedback
just
helps
us
be
better
and
we
want
to
be
a
great
addition
to
your
community.
So
again,
thank
you
all
for
your
time
and
consideration
absolutely.
A
Okay,
moving
on
to
item
9e
consideration
and
action
on
an
ordinance
approving
the
development
agreement
by
and
between
the
city
of
bloomington
illinois
and
illinois,
and
toastman
group
incorporated
egg
republic
at
511,
chancellor,
dr
as
requested
by
the
economic
and
community
development
department,
and
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
to
city
manager.
Gleason
for
introductory
remarks.
AD
Thank
you,
mayor
and
council
very
quick
comments,
great
opportunity
for
the
community,
successful
restaurants
and
other
communities
and
through
the
efforts
of
melissa
hahn,
her
team
and
the
business
owners.
We've
got
a
agenda
item
before
council
tonight
that
we
hope
council
supports
melissa.
AL
AL
The
development
agreement
before
you
for
consideration
will
rebate
50
of
the
municipal
sales
tax
and
food
and
beverage
tax.
The
site,
as
I
stated,
is
currently
vacant
and
is
not
generating
sales
or
food
and
beverage
tax.
At
this
time
as
structured,
the
proposed
agreement
will
be
fulfilled
once
the
total
reimbursement
equals
20
percent
of
the
total
project,
cost
158
500
or
at
the
end
of
the
five-year
term.
On
august
31st
2027,
whichever
comes
first
after
fulfillment
of
the
agreement,
the
city
will
receive
100
of
the
municipal
sales
tax
and
food
and
beverage
tax.
AL
B
Seven
hundred
ninety
two
and
we
are
rebating,
you
said
158
and
that's
over
five
years.
Yes,
okay,
okay,.
K
You
thank
you,
melissa.
You
answered
questions
for
me
and
I
appreciate
that
I
wanted
to
ask:
has
there
been
any
interest
showed
in
that
property
before
egg
republic
from
2018
that
you're?
Aware
of
not
that
I'm
aware
of
no
okay,
so
questions
you
know
asked
by
the
you
know:
community,
member
of
the
community.
Basically,
you
know
why.
K
AL
K
And
then
the
follow-up
question
is
just
setting
a
bad
precedent
and
basically
you
know:
you've
got
somebody
that
has
a
successful
business
for
12
years
in
a
in
a
different
city,
they're
going
to
be
renovating.
You
mentioned
the
700
000
for
building
that's
been
vacant,
since
2018
add
25
jobs
and
ultimately,
if
it
stays
undeveloped,
we
won't
get
any
any
tax
money
and,
and
our
incentive
exposure,
I
think,
is
limited
to
158,
000
or
the.
I
guess,
the
date
of
august
31st
2027
right.
AL
Yes,
it's
whichever
comes
first,
so
if,
if
they're
doing
well
it,
the
rebate
could
be
paid
off.
K
Sooner
gotcha,
okay:
I
would
go
ahead
and
and
move
to
approve
item.
I
think
9e
9e,
as
presented.
AJ
Just
one
comment,
as
we
have
learned
from
what
we've
got
going
on
around
the
county,
where
we're
looking
to
standardize
incentives,
so
we
can
prevent
conflict
so
that
there's
transparency
and
people
understand
the
formulas
that
are
used
to
make
decisions
that
might
otherwise
appear
subjective.
AJ
G
AA
AD
Thank
you,
mayor
and
council,
and
to
the
community
bloomington
is
very
fortunate
that
we
have
water
as
a
municipal
utility
and
it's
a
tremendous
asset
and
resource
for
us.
What
public
works
director
kothi
is
going
to
speak
with.
This
is
the
preliminary
design
for
improvements
that
we're
proposing
the
contract
is
with
donna
hugh
and
associates.
It's
a
1.5
million
dollar
investment
in
this
preliminary
design,
but
it's
an
investment
again
and
a
resource
that
many
communities
would
just
you
know
would
kill
to
have
to
be
quite
honest.
AM
AM
So
a
timeline
here
back
in
january
of
2020,
we
started
with
a
study
that
was
approved
by
council
for
division
and
enterprise
pump
station
planning,
and
then,
in
july
that
year
the
water
infrastructure
master
plan
was
approved
by
council
and
then
in
in
january
of
21.
We
we
took
a
step
back.
AM
We
did
a
amendment
to
the
study
to
look
at
location,
alternatives
and,
and
so
that
study
then
concluded
the
the
research
and
everything
in
july
and
now
we're
coming
before
you
with
the
next
step
after
having
looked
at
this
closer
as
far
as
where,
where
should
these
pump
stations
be?
Ideally,
if
we're
going
to
make
these
these
big
investments
in
our
infrastructure,
which
is,
is
needed
for
safer,
reliable
drinking
water.
So
next
slide,
please
the
inputs
to
what
this
study
looked
at
location
wise.
AM
This
is
a
map
that
you
you
all
have
seen
before,
that
shows
by
by
decade,
annexations
to
the
city
and
and
the
purple.
K
AM
Yeah,
no
you're,
fine,
we'll
let
our
technical
experts
in
the
back
figure
that
out,
but
the
the
annexation
map
is
one
that
we've
shared
before
that
just
shows
the
growth
of
the
city
over
over
the
years
and
the
purple
is
the
the
kind
of
the
core
of
the
city
that
goes
back
into
the
1800s
to
basically
1950
and-
and
you
know,
the
city
has
grown,
obviously
to
the
east,
but
also
to
the
south
and
to
the
west,
and
you
can
kind
of
see
how
that
growth
has
changed,
and
that
was
one
of
the
things
that
we,
you
know
looked
at
and
then
next
slide.
AM
Please.
Another
component
is
where
is
our
existing
water
consumption?
So
this
is
by
meter,
location,
the
the
average
annual
water
consumption
for
different
locations
and
the
the
color
and
the
size
of
the
circle
relates
to
how
much
water
is
being
used
at
these
locations.
And
so
what's
interesting
about
this
graphic
is
that
we
can
look
at
where's
the
water
being
used
today,
and
if
you
did
a
central
meridian
that
would
center
line
would
be
roughly
a
long
mercer
which,
at
the
south
end
of
mercer
is.
AM
Is
roughly
the
hamilton
tank
and
at
the
north,
end
of
mercer
is
roughly
fort
jesse
tanks
and
pump
station.
So
it's
just
interesting.
The
newer
infrastructure
is
about
ideally
centered
on
the
city
to
be
able
to
ride
east
and
west,
and
of
course,
we
know
that
the
water
from
the
lakes
comes
down
pipeline
road
to
the
city.
So
next
slide,
please.
AM
Another
input
to
our
study
involves
information
from
bringing
on
bloomington.
AM
That's
our
last
comprehensive
plan
that
was
done
in
2015
that
looks
to
2035
for
growth,
and
so
these
are
the
areas
around
the
edge
of
the
city
that
that
comprehensive
plan
suggested
would
be
developed
next
or
should
be
developed
next
and
and
what
type
of
zoning
those
should
be,
though,
that
influences
then
potentially
the
water
consumption
for
those
areas,
and
so
that
was
also
added
to
the
model,
along
with
all
those
little
different
colored
lines
that
you
see
up
there
with
red
and
blues
and
different
things.
AM
Those
represent
the
water
mains
in
the
distribution
system
that
are
12,
inches
or
larger
that
that
you
know
the
smaller
lines,
provide
water
to
individual
homes
and
so
forth.
The
larger
lines
are
kind
of
along
the
arterial
roads,
where
the
a
lot
of
the
water
is
conveyed
to
those
smaller
lines,
and
then
the
next
slide
please
this.
AM
This
is
the
translation
of
those
zonings
zoning
areas
of
development,
areas
into
water
usage
and
and
then
that
information
was
used
in
the
modeling
to
figure
out
where
where's
the
ideal
locations
for
the
new
infrastructure
next
slide,
please
so
the
existing
areas
that
are
served
by
the
city,
the
main
one,
is
the
purple.
That's
the
hamilton
pressure
zone
and-
and
that's
you
know
fort
jesse
feeds
it
and
so
does.
Division
street
to
the
to
the
west
is
the
enterprise
zone?
AM
That's
the
green
and
that's
fed
from
the
enterprise
pump
station,
which
is
also
located
at
division
street
and
then
at
the
south
end.
We
have
the
south
main
pressure
zone,
which
has
a
smaller
pump
down
the
south
main
street
that
feeds
that
pressure
zone.
AM
We
also
have
some
little
ancillary
pressure
zones
to
the
west
by
heartland
hills
and
then
to
the
north
for
hudson,
but
you'll
notice
that
there's
a
blue
line
that
kind
of
runs
on
diagonal
through
the
town
of
normal
and
that
that
is
the
transmission
mains
that
go
that
you
know
the
pipeline
road
mains
come
down
to
the
city
and
then
find
their
way
along
mainly
sugar,
creek,
to
get
to
division
street,
to
provide
the
water
for
the
pump
stations
there
at
division,
and
so
just
a
brief
history.
There.
AM
You
know
the
original
water
works
goes
back
into
the
1870s.
There
was
wells
there
at
division
street
and
a
standpipe
that
provided
water
to
downtown
bloomington
in
in
1906
at
division
street,
a
10
million
gallon
reservoir
was
added
and
then
in
1929
transmission
mains
were
added
to
convey
water
from
the
new
lake
bloomington
and
the
new
water
treatment
plant
and,
and
then
at
some
point,
then
the
the
well
at
division
street
was
abandoned
in
favor
of
the
water
that
was
coming
from
the
lake
in
1954.
AM
They
we
added
a
5
million
gallon
reservoir.
In
addition,
the
10
million
gallon
reservoir
was
actually
covered
at
that
time
and
then
the
division
street
pump
station
and
the
second
transmission
main
was
added
in
the
50s
and
then
in
88,
when
diamond
star
came
to
bloomington,
the
enterprise
pump
station
was
added
to
provide
water
to
that
west
side
and
then
in
the
90s,
the
the
south
main
zone
pump
station
and
then
94
some
improvements
to
division
street
pump
stations,
so
a
long
history
of
a
lot
of
stuff
at
division
street.
AM
And
then
you
know
the
question
in
the
study
next
slide.
Please
was
you
know
where
would
be
the
ideal
location
to
provide
water
that
meets
current
demands,
but
also
looks
to
the
future,
and
you
saw
those
inputs
earlier
on
that
we
used
into
the
the
water
model
and
the
water
model
is
similar
to
like
the
hydraulic
model
for
like
the
storm
water
that
we're
doing.
This
is
a
different
nature.
AM
It's
that
it's
all
pressure,
pipes
right,
because
water
we
pump
and
it
can
go,
serve
different
areas,
but
the
important
things
are:
the
the
ability
to
pump
and
deliver
water
in
a
timely
manner,
because
water
quality
as
water
ages,
its
quality
decreases,
and
so
we
want
to
get
it
there
kind
of
in
the
in
the
quickest
time
shortest
past
possible
type
of
thing.
So
it
gets
to
our
from
our
sources
to
our
consumers,
where
the
demand
is
as
quickly
as
we
can
so
next
slide.
Please.
AM
The
considerate,
oh,
that
one
yep,
it's
a
it,
looks
similar,
but
it's
different.
AM
So
what
we
see
in
the
study
is
you
know
the
the
blue
box
with
the
dashed
lines
is
the
ideal
place
for
another,
the
division
street
pump
station
to
be
relocated
somewhere
in
that
area,
along
with
another
elevated
tank,
and
also
the
yellow
zone,
go
away
at
the
south
end
and
become
incorporated
with
the
enterprise
zone
and
and
add
an
elevated
tank
down
at
morris
and
hamilton
road
that
was
contemplated
many
years
ago,
as
as
the
enterprise
zone
came
into
being
and
and
that's
right,
near
prairie,
vista
golf
course,
land
that
the
city
already
owns
and,
and
so
all
these
together
make
for
better
improvements
to
our
water
system.
AM
That
benefits
the
entire
community,
not
just
the
east
side
or
the
west
side,
but
the
entire
community
by
improved
pressures
and
water
quality
and
what
it
ends
up.
Meaning
is
that,
as
as
we
look
to
relocate
the
division
street
pump
station
to
the
east
side
to
better
serve
that
east
side,
it
also
means
that
we
don't
have
to
do
some
rehab
to
some
other
infrastructure
like,
for
instance,
the
old
transmission
mains,
that
we
talk
about,
go
through
normal,
very
difficult
area
to
rehab.
They
need
rehab.
AM
But
if
we
relocate
the
infrastructure
now
we
don't
need
to
rehab
those
we'd
also
don't
need
to
rehab
the
10
million
gallon
tank
or
the
5
million
gallon
tank,
which,
by
today's
standards,
can't
be
built
where
they're
built,
because
they're
actually
in
flood
plains.
So
there's
a
lot
of
costs
that
you
know
kind
of
that
we're
planning
on
having
to
do
for
rehab
that
we
we
won't
have
to
do
in
that
sense,
and
it
puts
us
in
a
better
position
for
serving
our
customers
today
and
into
the
future.
So
next
slide
please.
AM
So
in
summary,
the
proposed
improvements
are
the
most
cost,
effective
and
sustainable
of
the
alternatives.
Considered.
The
elevated
storage
and
central
location
will
reduce
pumping
requirements
and
associated
maintenance.
The
higher
elevation
will
reduce
energy
usage
and
the
water
modeling
showed
improvement
and
quality
of
water
service
throughout
the
system.
AM
So
the
next
step
is
to
approve
a
contract
with
donahue
and
associates
to
do
preliminary
design
for
all
these
improvements.
Final
design
for
the
enterprise
zone,
elevated
tank,
help
us
with
financial
planning,
land
acquisition
and
sighting
requirements
for
that
east
side,
northeast
side
pump
station
and
for
an
amount
not
to
exceed
1.4974
million
dollars,
and
it's
a
lot
of
money.
AM
But
these
are
a
lot
of
improvements,
millions
of
dollars
of
improvements
that
will
be
done
not
not
just
a
year
or
two,
but
over
many
years,
and
probably
you
know
more
in
a
decade
and
we
need
to
plan
that
out
with
obviously
we'll
be
working
on
a
rate
study,
but
we
also
financial
planning
will
probably
be
looking
at.
AM
You
know
some
sort
of
financing
for
some
of
this,
but
you
know
this
all
has
to
be
planned
out
incrementally
where
we
can
deliver
these
different
projects
all
not
in
the
same
year,
but
over
time-
and
you
know
when
we're
done
we'll
have
you
know
a
much
improved
water
system
that
not
only
serves
our
customers
today,
but
also
into
the
future
so
next
slide.
AD
Just
have
a
very
brief
comment:
just
piggybacking
off
of
the
public
works
director.
You
know
I
and
I
don't
intend
for
the
slide
to
go
backwards
to
the
benefits,
but
just
anybody
in
the
community.
You
know
please
take
a
look
at
this.
This
is
something
that
staff
under
the
direction
of
the
public
works
director
has
caught
and
again
this
is
a
high
dollar
investment.
AD
It's
going
to
take
several
years.
You
know
over
the
course
of
10
plus
years
to
complete
this,
but
the
disruption
to
the
north,
our
neighbors
to
the
north.
B
Since
this
is
such
a
long-term
plan-
and
now
we
just
discussed
the
investment
of
the
gas
station
on
the
west
side
and
rivens
over
on
that
part
of
town,
does
do
these
designs
and
plans
take
into
account
that
possibly
the
west
and
southwest
area
where
that
enterprise
zone
is
will
potentially
develop
to
the
point
where
the
northeast
is.
AM
Yeah,
no,
that's
all
taken
into
account.
That's
why
I
want
to
show
some
of
those
you
know
background
maps
from
you
know
the
comprehensive
plan,
because
this
really
goes
hand
in
hand
with
you
know,
as
as
a
comprehensive
plan
has
developed,
you
know
one
of
the
driving
factors
in
development
in
central
illinois.
AM
It
has
to
do
with
sewer
where
what
properties
can
be
served
by
sewer
and
so
a
lot
of
the
comprehensive
plan
looked
at
that
aspect
to
say
these
are
areas
that
are
adjacent
to
the
city
that
can
be
served
by
sewer
either
now
or
or
easily
into
the
future.
And
so
that's
that's
looking
into
those
areas
and
and
that's
what
the
you
know:
water
planting
this,
the
model
that
was
built,
use
that
as
input
and
also
factors
in
roads
and
all
that
type
of
thing.
K
You
thank
you
and
taking
off
of
donna's
question.
Do
you
think
putting
this
station
up
on
the
northeast
side
will
encourage
further
sprawl
to
the
east
for
the
city.
AM
Whether
whether
it
encourages
sprawl
or
not,
I
mean
that
that's
you
know
it,
it
provides
service,
you
know
to
those
areas
like
I
say
that
was
shown
in
the
comprehensive
plan.
You
know
I
it's
it's
necessary.
I
think
today,
from
the
standpoint
where
our
current
demands
are
from
our
customers.
AM
K
AM
There
is
the
need
to
move
the
water
rate
study
forward,
it
is
under
contract,
but
you
know
that
kind
of
some
of
the
next
steps
is
is
also
you
know,
looking
at
the
infrastructure
that
the
master
plan
had
a
lot
of
infrastructure
in
it
did
not
necessarily
have
every
component
that
we
now
have
from
this
distribution
modeling
study,
but
now
we
have
that
we
can.
We
can
plan
that
out
and
it
all
needs
to
go
hand
in
hand
you're
right
and
the
next
one.
AM
The
next
steps
is
also
putting
together
the
the
committee
to
meet,
and
you
know
some
of
that
got
put
on
hold
a
little
bit
because
of
cobit,
but
right.
K
K
K
K
Basically,
the
more
you
use
of
water,
the
less
you
pay
per
rate,
and
I
would
like
to
see
that
reversed
to
maybe
help
prevent
people
from
losing
water
service
and,
basically
losing
you
know,
access
to
living
in
their
home.
So
that's
just
a
comment.
That's
it!
Thank
you.
A
AD
Thank
you,
mayor
and
council,
and
to
the
community.
I
know
it's
been
a
long
night,
but
you
talk
about
capping
off
a
great
consent
and
regular
agenda.
This
is
it.
This
is
the
project
that
this
community
has
been
asking
for
for
quite
some
time.
AD
We
have
prominent
developers
that
are
very
successful
here
in
our
community
and
other
communities
that
we
think
we're
going
to
get
this
building
into
the
right
hands
through
this
incentive
that
the
deputy
city
manager
is
going
to
discuss
what
we're
talking
about
c2e's
building
one
that's
fallen
into
a
state
of
disrepair
for
well
over
a
decade
if
you're
northbound
on
business
51,
it's
one
that
you
see
as
soon
as
you
come
around
the
corner
from
the
new
law
and
justice
center
and
it's
an
exciting
project.
AD
I'm
going
to
also
comment
that
what
is
before
council
tonight
is
contingent
on
act,
future
action
by
district
87,
they're,
they're
com.
They
are
a
component
and
all
of
this
superintendent,
barry
reilly-
and
I
think,
he's
watching
from
home
has
been
a
complete
pleasure
to
work
with
on
this
project,
along
with
the
leadership
on
the
the
board
deputy
city
manager.
AD
AN
Thank
you
tim,
a
couple
things
I'd
like
to
mention,
and
really
we,
as
as
the
manager
talked
about
this
property
sat
vacant
for
for
years.
AN
Obviously,
before
I
arrived
and
it's
been
a
series
of
starts
and
stops
in
terms
of
trying
to
get
something
developed
there
for
the
last
several
years,
we
haven't
had
a
lot
of
folks
come
forward,
asking
to
develop
this
property,
and
so
when
we
had
a
local
developer
to
come
forward
to
start
having
those
conversations
with
us,
it
was
exciting
we
that
developer
and
that
team
is
is,
is
will
be
required
and
is,
is
looking
to
invest
at
least
four
million
dollars
in
this
property,
and
that's
not
a
small
number
in
terms
of
an
investment
in
a
residential
project.
AN
As
the
mayor
said,
it's
a
project
property,
that's
decaying
and
actually
costing
us
money
these
days.
Frankly,
in
terms
of
enforcement
action
and
also
staff
time
having
to
monitor
the
property,
the
development
will
be
will
bring
12
living
units
to
the
community,
as
patrick
copeland
talked
about
earlier.
There
is
a
significant
need
for
housing
in
this
area
or
in
our
community.
AN
AN
Our
obligation
would
be
to
abate
the
city's
incremental
property
tax
amount,
so
we
will
continue
to
collect
what
we're
currently
collecting,
but
the
incremental
growth
that
comes
as
a
result
of
this
project
that
would
not
come
for
it.
Not
for
this
project
would
be
a
abated
over
a
term
of
15
years.
These,
as
the
manager
talked
about
there
would
be
also
an
agreement
considered
by
the
school
district
for
them
to
abate
their
incremental
property
taxes
for
a
period
of
12
years.
AN
In
the
unlikely
event,
we
believe
it's
an
unlikely
event
that
more
than
one
student
would
live
would
reside
in
just
in
the
building
that
goes
to
district
87,
and
so
we
would
agree
to
to
cover
a
portion
of
the
cost
of
that
student
up
to
a
certain
amount.
Obviously,
again
we're
excited
about
the
possibility
of
the
project.
It's
it's
been
a
property
that
has
sat
vacant.
As
I
said
for
some
time
now,
bringing
housing
to
the
community
is
important,
as
patrick
talked
about
as
well.
AN
Infield
development-
it's
it's
you
know,
new
construction
is
important,
but
so
too
is
developing.
Well
redeveloping
what
we
have
and
so
again
the
developer
is
here:
andy
kaufman!
You
can
raise
your
hand,
I
appreciate
it
again.
Local
developer
and
again
we're
excited
about
the
possibility,
be
glad
to
answer
any
questions.
If
I
can.
F
Oh,
thank
you
mayor
thanks.
You
know
for
this
lily.
I
I
know
that
this
building
has
been
empty
for
a
long
time
and
there's
been
lots
of
conversations
about
it.
You
know,
and
I
support
support
this.
My
question
as
I
was
looking
over
the
the
materials
for
this
evening.
Is
there
a
commitment
from
the
local
developer
to
to
work
with
local
unions
to
hire
locally?
F
AN
I
I
can't
speak
for
the
developer,
but
what
I
do
know
is
that
he
plans
to
bid
the
project
locally
and,
and
obviously
local
companies
and
and
and
local
labor
organizations
are
invited
to
bid
on
the
project.
I
do
know
that
a
project
of
this
size
and
scope-
you
will
have
local
labor
on
it.
We
do
not,
as
you
know,
have
a
local
labor
requirement
by
from
the
city,
but
again
I
do
know
that
this
developer
and
we've
had
conversations
about
this
and
tends
to
bid
this
across
the
community,
and
I
I
I'm.
AN
I
can't
speak
for
local
labor,
but
my
assumption
is
that
organizations
utilizing
local
labor
would
be
bidding
on
the
project.
Thank
you.
B
Yeah,
I
understand
that
this
is
going
to
be
in
mixed
use
with
the,
which
is
the
office
space
on
the
bottom.
Who
would
be
responsible?
Would
the
developer
be
responsible
for
bringing
in.
AN
AN
I
would
I
would
say
that
that's
a
possibility
could
be
more
than
one,
but
again
I
I
I
don't
want
to
speak
for
the
developer,
but
they
would
be
responsible
for
that
recruitment.
B
Don't
take
offense
by
this.
Is
there
a
clawback
if
all
the
criteria
are
not
met.
AN
Well,
that's
that's.
Actually
the
developer,
as
part
of
this
process
has
to
prove
that
they're
making
the
dollar
amount
investment
that
that
they
have
committed
to.
They
also
have
to
develop
the
property
in
the
way
that
we
have
said
that
I
that
I
described
and
in
the
event
that
those
things
don't
happen
and
again
there's
some
flexibility
in
terms
of
the
number
of
the
types
of
apartment,
et
cetera,
et
cetera.
E
So
I
just
want
to
share
a
couple
comments
that
I've
gotten
from
other
other
business
folks
in
the
community
on
this
one
and
the
the
comments
are-
are
that
this
helps
them
to
have
confidence
that
we
are
committed
to
some
infill,
some
downtown
they're,
seeing
other
things
quick
trip,
that's
showing
confidence
on
the
outside.
You
know
the
west
side
they're,
seeing
that
we're
not
putting
all
our
eggs
in
one
basket
and
they're
excited.
E
E
A
A
AN
What
I'm
sorry
while
you're
voting,
I
I
I
would
be
remiss
if
I
didn't
say
this
was
a
truly
a
team
effort.
If
this
passes,
obviously
this
guy
to
my
right
was
integral
and
making
this
happen
as
well.
So
just
wanted
to
say
that.
A
G
A
A
You
know
and
they're
not
even
showing
any
signs
of
stress,
so
I
think
we
really
need
to
applaud
the
staff,
but
also
applaud
the
council
for
everybody,
just
kind
of
being
in
lockstep
and
and
moving
forward
on
all
these
items.
These
are
very
important
for
the
community,
so
awesome
with.
That
said,
I
turn
it
over
to
city
manager.
Gleason,
for
our
finance
director's
report.
AD
It's
that
time
of
the
month
where
the
finance
director
has
his
monthly
finance
director's
report.
I
think
scott's
requested
that
we
dim
the
lights
and
you
want
a
spotlight
correct.
AD
No
I'm
going
to
turn
this
over
to
scott
for
the
march
financials.
Thank
you.
AC
Thank
you,
city
manager,
mayor
council.
Keep
it
brief
tonight,
while
we're
through
march
11
months,
one
month
ago,
there's
still
a
lot
of
activity
to
still
be
recognized
for
the
city.
Our
sales
taxes
are
basically
three
months
in
arrears.
AC
A
lot
of
the
items
that
were
approved
on
the
agenda
this
evening
are
not
incorporated
into
the
projections
right
now
an
example
being
the
fire
truck.
You
know
for
for
nine
hundred
thousand
dollars,
so
we
do
not
put
items
like
that
in
the
projection
until
approved.
So
I
wanted
to
spend
a
little
bit
more
time
talking
about
timing
and
process,
and
you
know
we'll
start
zeroing
in
on
those
numbers
in
the
in
the
coming
months.
So
again,
this
month,
no
material
changes
from
from
prior
revenues
are
up.
AC
We
have
mounting
concerns,
obviously
about
rising
costs.
I
wanted
to
mention
again
like
I
did
last
month.
I
want
to
acknowledge
that,
while
our
revenues
are
up,
the
city's
revenues
are
up.
I
do
acknowledge.
You
know
that
that
could
be
a
burden
for
some
of
the
taxpayers,
as
inflation
goes
up
and
sales
tax
revenues
go
up.
AC
AC
The
decision
to
put
more
than
half
down
on
the
on
the
o'neill
park
and
pool
project
of
8.2
million,
trying
to
save
some
of
the
that
interest
cost
going
forward
for
the
community
so
using
those
dollars
wisely
is
really
you
know
a
core
mission
of
ours
next
slide.
Please.
AC
So
so,
just
briefly
here
to
look
at
the
year-to-date
column
I
want
to
want
to
highlight
you
know
you
can
see
that
home
rule
sales,
tax
and
state
sales
tax-
we've
only
gotten
nine
months,
recognized
while
we're
through
march,
so
not
to
bore
everyone,
but
it
is
worth
understanding
that
when
a
sale
occurs
in
a
given
month,
the
retailer
remits
to
the
state
the
following
month,
the
state
compiles
that
information
the
month
after
that
and
then
the
month
month
after
that
they
actually
remit
it
back
to
the
municipality.
AC
So
there's
a
three-month
delay
on
sales
taxes.
So
we
don't
have
visibility
on
sales
taxes,
which
is
yes,
you
can
see
the
highest
components
of
our
revenue
structure
for
three
months.
Most
of
our
other
business
local
business
taxes
are
really
just
kind
of
like
one
month
in
arrears,
but
so
we
we
do
have
that
large
gap
on
home
rule
and
state.
AC
I've
highlighted
a
few
items
here:
I'll
go
through
briefly
home
rule
sales,
tax,
4.4
million
dollars
ahead
year
to
date,
we're
averaging
between
four
and
five
hundred
thousand
dollars
each
month
over
budget.
So
you
know
we're
anticipating.
You
know
with
three
months
left:
that's
1.5
million,
so
doing
the
math
there.
You
know
six
million
dollars
roughly
over.
You
can
see
that
we
took
it
down
1.4
million
dollars
from
the
prior
year,
so
to
repeat
some
of
the
messaging
from
from
the
budget.
AC
The
new
revenues
related
to
that
that
that
increase
are
really
related
to
the
online
component
that
sales
tax
is
being
collected
from
online
purchases.
Now
it's
really
had
a
material
impact
for
us
and
then
obviously
the
cannabis
dispensary
is
contributing
to
that
as
well.
Rolling
down
the
exhibit
local
motor
fuel
tax
year
date
we're
slightly
under
there's
some
fluctuation.
There
we've
been
kind
of
running
just
a
little
above
a
budget
year
long,
the
home
rule
sales
tax.
AC
You
know
if
that
comes
in
roughly
six
million
dollars,
but
if
you
take
out
the
1.4
that
we
took
it
down
for
prior
year,
let's,
let's
just
use
five
million
dollars
four
to
five
million
dollars
over
budget.
That's
going
to
offset
some
of
that
local
motor
fuel
tax
decrease,
but
not
the
seven
hundred
thousand
dollars
in
the
far
right
column
that
we
took
it
down
from
prior
year.
So,
as
a
home
rule
goes
up,
10
of
that
is
allocated
to
the
asphalt
and
concrete
fund,
so
that
helps
offset
any
local
motor
fuel
tax.
AC
It
doesn't
rebound
related
to
remote
workforce,
but
you
know
that
that
that
I
think
is
changing
a
bit,
but
that
remains
to
be
seen.
Food
and
beverage
tax
wanted
to
highlight
really
strong.
I
mean
I
love
the
number
nine
hundred
thousand
dollars
over
a
year.
To
date,
we
took
the
budget
down
575
food
and
beverage,
we're
averaging
about
75
to
125
000
over
budget
each
month,
so
that
can
fluctuate
depending
on
holidays,
etc
and
then
hotel
motel
tax,
far-right
column.
AC
You
can
see
we
took
it
about
down
by
750
000
thinking
that
was
going
to
be
a
residual
impact
from
covid,
not
realizing.
You
know
the
the
dramatic
drive
that
riven
was
going
to
be
pushing
and
the
impact
on
the
on
the
local
economy
related
to
that
so
we're
a
million
dollars
over
budget
year-to-date
hotel
motel.
We
understand
that
that
is
not
going
to
be.
You
know
an
ongoing
variance,
but
very
glad
to
see
that
at
this
point
in
time
again
just
want
to
repeat
the
message
from
the
preferred
screen.
AC
You
know
is
our
job
and
finance
and
city
administration
and
its
managers
to
utilize
those
dollars
equitably
for
the
for
the
community
next
slide,
please
so
just
highlighting
our
funds.
We
still
have
that
4.8
million
dollars
you'll
see
in
the
next
screen
that
this,
the
we're
uncertain
that
that's
going
to
be
allocated
in
2022,
so
we'll
show
an
adjustment
in
just
a
moment:
taxes,
19.8
million
dollars-
that's
the
projection
over
for
the
budget
for
the
year.
AC
The
prior
screening
showed
us
that
we're
about
14
5
14
6
over
already,
that
does
not
include
all
sea
or
all
taxes.
That's
a
limited
list
on
that
prior
exhibit
so
we're
trending
favorably
there,
as
I
mentioned
next
slide,
please
so
again
not
to
be
a
broken
record,
but
many
of
these
categories
are
going
to
change
because
of
some
of
the
items
that
were
approved
tonight
somewhere
for
23.
AC
AC
Now
it's
unlikely
we'll
have
those
encumbered
before
year,
in
so
in
the
highlighted
section
at
the
bottom,
I'm
just
kind
of
showing
that
our
reserves
could
end
up
being
higher
like
very
much
higher
than
what
we've
been
showing,
but
showing
that
those
that
4.8
million
dollars
in
american
rescue
plan
act
dollars
are
pending
authorization,
so
to
be
strategically
utilized
decided
by
by
you
counsel,
is
brought
forward
by
the
city
manager
at
a
future
date,
so
we're
kind
of
like
showing
to
the
placeholder
just
a
little
differently
now
that
those
will
be
restricted,
so
we're
still
kind
of
in
that
34
35
million
dollar
reserve
projection
for
the
end
of
2022
next
slide.
AC
Please
I
want
to
highlight,
like
we
did
last
month,
solid
waste.
You
know
just
this
gives
an
example
of
the
timing
of
the
expense
recognition
also
also
shows
you
know.
AC
The
fund
has
had
kind
of
a
reversal
of
fortunes
but,
as
was
discussed
during
one
of
the
budget
meetings,
there's
a
very
significant
equipment
infrastructure
capital
requirement
for
that
fund
that
some
of
that
equipment
has
been
delayed,
but
this
does
show
you
can
see
the
year-to-date
162
thousand
dollar
gain
for
the
year
at
this
point
in
time,
and
a
lot
of
that
is
related
to
recycling
the
turn
of
that
that
we're
making
revenue
on
that
and
the
brush
burner.
That's
lowered
expenses
dramatically,
but
my
understanding,
the
recycling
market
is
already
changing.
AC
It's
a
very
volatile
thing.
So
it's
one
of
those
one
of
those
line,
items
where
you
just
you
just
ne.
You
don't
know
you
can't
depend
on
it.
The
other
line
I
wanted
to
highlight
is
year-to-date
actual
way
over
bottom
right
for
the
arena.
1.2
million
dollars
in
revenue
reflecting
a
lot
of
the
ihsa
activity
for
the
cheer
dance
wrestling
competitions,
ice,
rentals,
laundego
concert
casting
crown
so
we're
seeing
some
revenue
kicking
into
the
arena
at
this
point,
and
next
slide
is
where
we
have
this
information
located
on
the
website.
AC
I
mistakenly
sent
the
february
report
to
I.t
this
afternoon.
So
if
someone
looked
this
afternoon,
they
would
have
seen
february,
but
mark
should
be
out
there
now
next
slide.
Please
that's
just
the
explanations
next
slide,
please!
I
gotta
put
these
in
a
different
order.
Next
month,
I
thought
there
was
a
question
there
take
any
questions
or
comments.
B
I
always
have
a
question.
I
remember
when
covert
first
hit
and
you
dropped
the
budget
down
a
lot
and
then
now,
over
the
past
two
years
you've
talked
about.
We
are
above
budget,
I'm
not
trying
to
put
a
cloud
over
this,
because
I
think
it's
a
good
news,
but
you
see.
Do
you
see
where
I'm
going
with
this?
How
much?
AC
Right
so
so
2021
we
adopted
the
budget.
We
we
came
up
with
five
million
dollars
of
savings
kind
of
like
it's
an
offset,
then
2022.
AC
We
did
lower
many
of
the
revenue
categories
and
that's
why,
in
that
that
major
tax
revenue
exhibit
out
the
far
right.
We
want
to
show
what
we
dropped
the
budget
for
22
down
from
21..
So
you
know,
for
example,
to
keep
in
context
that
you
know
the
local
motor
fuel
tax.
I
mean
we're
a
little
under
now,
but
we've
been
kind
of
tracking
a
little
above
budget
for
22,
but
we
took
the
budget
down
700
thousand
dollars
from
21.,
so
you
know
that
was
added
to
the
exhibit
council
member
becker's
request.
AC
I
believe,
to
highlight
the
exact
point
that
you're
making
is
that
the
positive
variances
we're
showing
right
now
need
to
be
kept
in
for
22
need
to
be
kept
in
context
with
what
we
took
it
down
from
from
21..
Okay.
Thank
you.
A
Awesome
councilmember
craig.
A
AD
Thank
you,
mayor
and
council.
I
have
two
slides
very
brief
comments,
trades
and
labor
fest
2022.
Is
this
saturday
10
a.m
until
1
p.m?
It's
at
the
museum
square.
We
might
have
additional
comments
on
that
here
in
a
minute
or
two
next
slide,
please
downtown
farmer's
market.
This
is
the
first
one
that
is
actually
outdoors
for
the
year
and
that's
not
this
saturday,
but
next
may
7th
7
30
to
12
o'clock.
AD
Hopefully
I
know
it's
well
attended
by
vendors
and
the
community
always
looks
forward
to
this
and
we're
definitely
in
a
different
spot
this
year
than
where
we
have
been
the
past
couple.
I
guess
the
additional
comments
just
going
to
very
quickly
talk
about
tonight's
agenda.
AD
Again
there
were
several
items
on
the
consent
agenda
on
the
regular
agenda,
and
this
is
one
for
council
to
honestly
take.
You
know
this
one
for
the
record
books
where
this
council
can
take
two
or
three
victory:
laps
for
the
items
that
were
approved
staff.
All
my
departments
were
very
much
a
part
of
this
agenda.
AD
All
of
them
had
a
presence
and
a
piece.
The
deputy
city
manager
talks
about
corporation
council,
jeff
jurgens.
You
know
he's
he
and
his
team
have
a
part
in
every
single
thing
that
makes
it
to
the
agenda
and
definitely
deserves
that
recognition.
So
I'm
very
proud
of
this
team.
We're
going
to
have
plenty
to
be
talking
about
publicly
small
doses.
Catherine
murphy,
when
she
gets
back,
is
going
to
push
press
releases
and
social
media
releases,
because
we've
got
a
lot
to
tell
the
community,
and
you
know
anybody
that's
watching
bloomington.
A
Okay,
thank
you
manager,
gleason,
and
I
would
echo
those
comments
and
again
thank
you
to
staff
for
all
your
hard
work.
It
hasn't
gone
unnoticed.
A
And
the
mayor's
discussion,
the
only
thing
that
I
wanted
to
make
note
of
is
that
we
have
received
applications
for
ward
1
applicants
and
at
this
point
we
have
about,
we
have
seven
applicants
and
I'm
going
to
conduct
interviews
with
them
within
the
next
week
or
so
pending
depending
on
schedules.
You
know
how
schedules
align.
A
A
Moving
on
to
council
member
discussion,
are
there
any
comments?
Okay,
councilman,
ebola.
AH
B
Yeah,
I
just
want
to
announce
that
this
is
the
100th
anniversary
of
the
american
society
of
clinical
pathologists,
which
I
am
a
member
and
they
are
celebrating
lab
week
for
medical
professionals
who
this
is
an
exaggeration,
are
stuck
in
the
lab
in
the
basement,
without
any
recognition
doing
performing
tests
in
order
to
help
the
physician
with
his
diagnosis
and
treatment.
F
Crumpler,
thank
you
mayor.
Yes,
just
two
quick
things.
I
attended
the
potts
award
luncheon
last
week
and
then
yesterday
I
was
at
the
hindu
temple.
You
know
the
pods
lunch
and
gave
me
the
opportunity
to
learn
so
much
about
what
deb
and
her
volunteer
staff
do.
I'm
keeping
plastics
out
of
landfills
is
so
important
and
at
the
hindu
temple
I
was
so
impressed
with
the
generosity
of
my
hosts
and
all
the
things
that
I
learned
about
hindu
culture
and
religion.
So
it
was
a
great
time
in
both
places.
Yeah.
A
AB
Yes,
thank
you,
so
I
I
just
want
to
publicly
acknowledge
that
there
are
some
happy
and
some
very
unhappy
people
in
regards
to
a
recent
pub
crawl
that
hit
our
downtown
area.
AB
AB
I
didn't
see
those
people,
so
we
want
to
acknowledge
that
we
are
hearing
those
voices,
whether
they're,
happy
or
unhappy
with
with
that
situation,
and
that
you
know
we're
going
to
take
what
they're
saying
to
us
very
seriously
and
and
look
into
it
and
and
make
sure
that
we
investigate
what
happened
and
what
we
can
do
better
in
the

So
I
don't
want
them
to
feel
like
they're
out
there
being
ignored
because
they're
not
being
able.
Thank
you
mayor.
E
I'm
gonna
claim
ignorance
here
and
ask
the
chief
to
help
me,
but
you
did
recently
do
some
promotions
for
the
I
want
to
say:
community
com
policing
component.
Can
you
tell
me
what
the
name
of
that
is
again.
E
Thank
you.
I
I
just
could
not
remember
that,
and
I
just
want
to
say
that
that's
you
know
in
the
discussions
we've
had
around
violence
and
that
in
here
I
think,
that's
a
great
step
and
I
really
appreciate
the
work
you're
doing.
