going
to
try
to
figure
this
out.
So
if
someone
are
you
do
you
have
the
ability
to
share
the
screen?
Amaranth.
H
Perfect,
all
right,
oh
it's
tiny
on
my
screen
all
right,
so
I'm
gonna
have
to
figure
this
out
so
hi
everyone
again.
My
name
is
mark
ramos.
Thank
you
so
much
for
having
us
here.
We're
really
excited
to
get
to
tell
you
about
the
work
that
we've
been
doing
with
and
for
the
community
over
the
last
year
and
a
half.
H
So
that
is
our
cover
page.
So
erin
go
ahead
and
move
to
the
next
page.
H
I'm
not
going
to
read
all
these
words.
Generally
speaking,
we
are
a
collective
impact
organization
with
40
plus
partners
in
evanston
that
are
really
all
working
together
on
some
larger
tougher
issues
for
our
families
and
our
communities,
and
the
idea
is
one
organization
can't
do
it
on
its
own,
so
we
are
doing
it
in
conjunction
with
each
other.
H
We're
tackling
things
like
the
academic
achievement
gap,
early
literacy,
kindergarten,
readiness
and
all
those
things,
and
we
are
doing
everything
that
we
can
so
that
by
the
age
of
23,
all
evans
and
young
adults
have
the
opportunity
for
the
same
level
of
success
regardless
of
race,
creed
or
color.
Amaranth.
H
H
This
past
year,
we
focused
on
the
following
the
ongoing
impact
of
kobit
19
on
the
evanston
community,
anti-racism
and
equity,
expanding
our
collaboration
with
the
city
of
evanston,
making
sure
we
have
effective
leadership
at
all
stakeholder
levels
and
engaging
the
community
as
leaders
next
slide.
H
So,
as
we
all
know,
it's
been
a
tough
15
and
one
of
the
things
that
we
really
wanted
to
do
in
response
to
the
pandemic
and
the
way
we
pivoted
is
to
really
address
what
the
community
needed
from
us.
So
one
of
the
main
things
we
did
is
we
distributed
over
180
000
in
covert
relief
funds.
We
provided
funds
for
virtual
pantries.
H
We
did
direct
payments
for
undocumented
families,
provided
grants
to
our
nonprofit
partners
to
make
sure
that
they
stayed
afloat
during
the
pandemic
and
and
so
really
tried
to
listen
and
pay
attention
to
what
the
community
told
us
they
needed
and
they
wanted
to
be
able
to
move
forward
during
the
last
18
months.
We
also
at
the
behest
of
the
city
that
had
a
youth
left
behind
a
mass
campaign
and
kim
will
talk
about
that
more,
but
really
it
was
about
getting
folks
to
be
compliant
or
unmasking
to
prevent
the
spread
of
kobig.
H
We
helped
lead
the
mayor's
kobit
19
non-profit
leaders
group
over
a
hundred
non-profit
leaders
got
together
at
the
beginning
of
pandemic,
we're
still
continuing
to
meet.
We
co-lead
the
group
with
northwestern
and
evanston
community
foundation,
and
the
initial
idea
was
to
address
emergent
needs
in
the
community,
and
now
we
continue
to
work
and
advocate
for
the
community.
H
As
a
huge
non-profit
leaders
group,
we
also
helped
put
together
a
vaccine
equity
working
group.
Over
182
vaccinations
went
out
to
network
with
that
group.
We
were
instrumental
in
getting
together
the
town
halls
and
the
round
tables
to
provide
all
of
you
with
the
community
input
around
the
43
million
dollar
funds
from
arpa.
H
I
took
this
job
for
me.
It
really
was
about
the
anti-racism
equity
case.
How
do
we
create
a
society
and
evanston
that
really
is
more
equitable
and
has
our
black
and
brown
under-resourced
communities
in
mind?
That's
really
been
something.
That's
been
dear
to
my
heart
for
all
the
years
that
I've
been
working,
and
I
knew
that
this
was
something
that
evans
incredible
career
was
focusing
on.
As
such,
we
hosted
two
annual
community
building
anti-racism
equity
summits,
led
by
our
youth
over
110
youth,
attended.
H
We
provided
anti-racism,
training
and
affinity
groups
for
the
evanston
executive
directors
roundtable,
so
25
community
leaders
participated
in
those
trainings.
One
of
the
things
that
we're
most
proud
of
is
our
seats
of
solidarity,
virtual
convening
at
the
behest
of
district
65.
We
actually
brought
together
black
and
brown
families
to
really
talk
about
the
perceived
challenges
that
they
had
like
within
the
communities
and
how
to
really
come
together
in
solidarity.
H
We
are
also
giving
out
another
hundred
thousand
dollars
in
systems
change
grants
this
year
for
a
youth,
collective
organization,
a
group
of
organizations
and
also
for
early
childhood
and
lastly,
around
anti-racism
and
equity.
As
an
asian-american
woman,
I
was
really
proud
to
be
able
to
speak
out
against
anti-asian
violence
and
hate
during
a
community
vigil
that
was
held
earlier
in
the
spring
with
commissioner
josina
morita
and
representative
jennifer.
Congressman.
H
As
I
mentioned,
we
also
really
did
we
wanted
to
deepen
our
collaboration
with
the
city
of
evanston.
I
mentioned
some
of
these
things
already,
but
we
co-hosted
our
town
halls
and
roundtables
the
vaccine
equity
working
group,
our
youth
led
behind
the
mass
campaign
and
with
the
city
of
evanston
and
district
65
and
district
202,
we
hosted
it
back
to
school.
Back
to
the
future
event,
we
had
500
plus
people
attend
this
event.
H
We
have
also
so
on
an
operations
level,
we
elected
a
new
operations
team.
This
is
again
our
strategic
armed.
It
really
focuses
on
making
sure
that
we
are
in
touch
with
the
community
and
supporting
what
the
community
needs.
We
elected
four
new,
really
great
members,
ayanna
gutierrez
from
evanston
rebuilding
warehouse,
joy
smith,
who
is
the
president
of
hogton
community
college,
patrick
keenan,
dublin
who's,
the
executive
director
of
the
moran
center
and
betty
cones,
who
was
an
advocate,
is
part
of
a
reba
early
learning
youth
center.
H
We
are
relaunching
our
action
teams
to
make
sure
that
we
again
refocus
on
community
impact,
our
advocacy
reaction,
which
you
will
hear
more
about.
We
launch
the
second
cohort
as
well
as
our
student
advocates.
I
I
I
was
hired
about
four
years
ago
to
build
a
community
leadership
team
now
known
as
the
advocates
for
action
and,
in
my
opinion,
one
of
the
best,
if
not
the
best
community
leadership
teams
in
the
country,
we're
going
to
talk
about
engaging
the
community
as
leaders
and
when
we
can
go
to
the
next
slide,
and
I
just
want
to
highlight
some
of
the
things
that
the
advocates
have
been
a
part
of
most
recently.
I
Our
community
coffees,
you
guys,
might
recognize
one
of
our
guests
and
I
invite
you
guys
to
come
on
this
platform.
If
you
want
to
talk
about
something,
that's
going
on
on
your
board
or
just
in
the
city,
it's
a
wonderful,
wonderful
collaboration
with
radiola
difference
our
community
radio
station
right
here
in
evanston.
I
I
can't
read
the
slides,
it's
so
small,
it's
student
inspired
it!
It
was
birthed
from
our
student
quarantine
series
that
we
put
on
during
the
pandemic.
It
broadcasts
over
facebook
live
as
well
as
worldwide
on
the
on
the
radio
station.
It's
a
global
broadcast,
so
it's
a
really
really
neat
pro
platform.
I
I
They
have
hit
the
ground
running,
they
were
a
part
of
the
back
to
school
back
to
the
future
event,
along
with
the
city
in
both
school
districts,
they're
planning,
a
thanksgiving
event,
they're
part
of
a
review,
the
grants,
review
committee
and
we're
always
just
providing
platforms
and
opportunities
for
these
young
people
to
lead
we're
going
to
go
to
the
next
slide.
I
I
think
we're
probably
best
known
for
our
community
building
grants.
We
have
to
date
allocated
25
grants
and
the
goal
for
those
grants
are
for
to
give
individuals
the
opportunity
to
have
impacts
on
their
communities.
We
have
I'm
sorry.
I've
lost
my
place
in
2020
alone.
We
gave
away
over
32
000
and
again
we
just
want
to
give
people
a
chance
to
connect
and
engage
with
their
neighbors
respect
and
celebrate
diversity,
share
skills
and
knowledge
just
want
to
quickly
talk
about
two
of
the
grants
that
come
to
mind.
I
For
me,
the
minority
golf
project,
which
was
a
student
who
was
on
the
golf
team
and
didn't
see
minorities
on
the
golf
team
and
wanted
to
know
why
and
he
wrote
and
applied
for
a
grant
in
in
collaboration
with
canal
shores,
so
that
minority
students
could
come
over
and
have
golf
lessons.
Well,
it
was
so
successful
that
canal
shores-
and
I
believe
the
city
of
evanston-
has
now
continued
with
that
program
where
minority
youth
can
come
and
have
the
chance
to
play
golf.
So
we
love
that
and
we
love
the
tools.
I
We
love
them
all
and
the
tool
sharing
library
from
the
westin
area,
black
club,
where
they
have
bought
tools,
including
a
snowblower
that
neighbors
can
come
and
use
and
borrow
they
were
able
to
snowblow
their
seniors
sidewalks.
And
you
know
now
they
know
their
neighbors.
So
it's
a
lot
of
community
building.
So
we
hope
to
see
this
model
and
all
over
town
that
the
westin
area,
black
club
started
all
right.
We're
going
to
go
to
our
last
but
not
least,
slide,
and
that's
our
student
advocates
and
youth
delegates.
I
This
team
was
developed
in
2019
and
it
started
where
the
students
were
addressing
education,
educational
equity,
but
then
it
evolved,
they
kind
of
pivoted
with
the
pandemic
and
had
a
covet
response.
I
They
hosted
the
first,
I
know
ever:
youth
town
hall
with
school
board,
school
board,
district,
65
and
202
candidates
and
recently
the
youth
town
hall
for
the
arpa
funds.
I
The
youth
are
really
important
in
our
community
and
we
always
try
to
provide
platforms
and
opportunities
for
them
to
amplify
their
voices.
We
wanted
them
to
kind
of
speak
to
you
directly
between
basketball,
cheerleading
and
football.
We
had
a
hard
time
today
at
4
30,
but
we
do
have
a
short
video
we'd
like
to
play
that
really
kind
of
speaks
to
our
work
and
their
hopes
for
the
community.
F
Hi,
my
name
is
christoph
mubiae,
and
what
inspired
me
to
become
a
youth
delegate
student
advocate
is
my
strong
belief
that
it's
extremely
important
to
give
back
to
the
community
and
become
involved
in
matters
concerning
it
now.
What
my
hopes
and
dreams
are
for
the
community
is
that
every
individual
takes
it
upon
themselves
to
research
issues,
issues
whether
they
be
local
state
or
federal,
and
become
involved
in
civic
engagement.
J
Hi,
my
name
is
nia
dillard,
and
this
is
my
farewell
to
the
cradle
to
career
youth,
delegate
team.
What
inspired
me
to
want
to
be
a
youth
delegate
is
that
I
watched
my
father
work
with
cradle
to
career
and
aspect
for
action
for
a
while,
and
I
was
always
inspired
by
the
work
that
he
and
the
other
members
of
the
team
did,
and
so,
when
I
was
presented
with
the
opportunity
during
the
quarantine
to
be
a
part
of
this
group,
I
was
very
excited
and
blessed
for
the
opportunity.
J
K

Hi,
my
name
is
anna
grant
fulton
and
I'm
a
student
advocate
with
gradle's
career.
I
first
got
involved
my
sophomore
year
with
student
advocates,
because
I
want
to
be
engaged
in
racial
equity
work,
specifically
reducing
racial
disparities
in
early
childhood
education
in
the
future
in
evanston,
I
would
love
to
see
the
city
reimagining
its
systems
through
the
framework
of
equity.
Specifically,
how
can
we
meet
the
needs
of
those
most
marginalized
in
the
community
by
investing
in
life-giving
systems
like
environmental
sustainability
or
housing,
or
early
childhood
education?
M
N
N
So
when
I
heard
about
this
opportunity
to
become
a
youth
delegate
for
them,
I
jumped
on
it
and
I
was
so
excited
to
join.
My
biggest
hope
for
evanston
is
that
we
become
more
of
a
unified
front.
I
feel
like
on
the
outside.
Evanston
is
pretty
picture
perfect,
but
when
you
look
on
the
inside,
we
do
have
deep
rooted
issues
that
need
to
be
taken
care
of,
so
that
we
can
be
a
unified
friend.
Next
year
we
will
be
attending
hampton
university
and
I'm
so
excited
to
be
going
there.
N
A
I
don't
see
any
lights,
so
I
will
speak
for
the
committee
with
with
everyone's
understanding
that
I'm
so
thankful
for
work,
the
commitment
of
all
the
public
servants,
organizational
leaders
and
our
pastors
who
support
the
efforts
of
cradle
to
career.
I
want
to
thank
you
maricar
for
your
leadership
in
stepping
in.
I
also
want
to
thank
and
acknowledge
kimberly
holmes
for
all
the
wonderful
work
that
you
do
in
the
community.
It's
it's
extremely
moving
to
see,
particularly
the
work
with
the
young
people,
whereas
so
much
of
cradle
careers
work
is
systematic
change.
A
You
deliver
a
really
great
product
on
behalf
of
the
organization.
So
with
that,
is
there
a
motion
to
approve
item
a2?
Oh,
it's
been
moved
and
seconded.
So
do
you
want
to
go
ahead
and
call
the
role
director.
E
A
It
passes
unanimous.
Thank
you
very
much
and
we'll
see
you
at
city
council.
The
next
item
is
item
a
eight
and
we
have
a
presentation
from
director
stoneback
and
I
understand
we
also
have
two
speakers
on
the
item
as
well.
C
C
But
tonight
we
have
three
items
on
the
agenda
that
deal
with
funding
related
to
replacement
of
the
1909
water
intake,
pipe.
That's
items
a8,
which
authorizes
the
city
manager
to
negotiate
and
enter
into
an
agreement
to
accept
the
order,
infrastructure,
finance
innovation
act
or
with
you
funding
810,
which
is
to
accept
funding
from
the
state
of
illinois
under
revolving
loan
fund
and
then
a12,
which
is
authorizing
the
borrowing
of
the
money.
From
with
you
after
the
agreement
is
approved.
C
So
the
original
pipe
was
installed
in
1909.
C
It
extends
out
into
the
lake
approximately
a
mile
and
a
quarter,
the
first
length
of
the
existing
pipe,
the
first
half
of
it
is
actually
36
inch
in
diameter
and
the
final
half
is
42
inch,
and
that
is
because
in
1909,
when
they
constructed
it,
there
was
already
a
30-inch
pipeline
that
intake
pipeline
that
existed,
and
so
the
36-inch
pipeline
went
out.
The
same
distance
they
hooked
both
pipelines
up
together
and
then
extended
it
out
as
a
42..
C
It
should
be
up
around
100
120
and
it's
up
down
to
80
in
1978,
so
we
lost
about
a
third
of
the
capacity
through
that
pipeline
at
that
time.
More
recently,
we
did
a
test
on
it
in
august
of
this
year
and
we're
only
able
to
pull
5
million
gallons
of
water
5
million
gallon
a
day
rate
through
that
intake
pipe.
C
The
way
it
exists
right
now
and
the
existing
intake
pipe
does
not
have
a
heating
system
on
it,
which
we
would
put
in
on
the
new
pipe,
which
would
help
stop
the
frazzle
ice
blocking
up
our
intake,
and
we
don't
have
any
chemical
feed
lines
on
it.
Either.
We
use
the
chemical
feed
lines
to
feed
chlorine
at
the
end
of
the
intake,
so
that
the
quagga
mussels
that
are
proliferated
through
the
the
lake
right
now
they've
replaced
the
zebra
mussels
don't
grow
inside
that
intake
pipe.
C
So
that's
some
of
the
improvements
that
we're
looking
for
on
the
on
the
pipe
that
we're
putting
in
right
now.
This
shows
the
funding
for
this
project.
The
engineering
design
is
basically
complete.
We
were
successful
in
obtaining
the
multi-phase
permitting
that
you
need
from
this.
You
need
it
from
the
army
corps
of
engineers,
department
of
natural
resources
and
the
epa.
C
So
we
have
those
permits
in
hand
now
that's
part
of
why
the
design
cost
is
so
high,
there's
so
much
coordination
needed
to
obtain
these
permits.
It's
a
project
that
we
started
the
preliminary
design
in
2019
at
almost
a
600
000
award
and
then
in
2020
there
was
a
152
000
dollar
changer
on
that
and
the
biggest
cost
of
that
was
to
provide
geotechnical
information
on
the
lake
bottom.
C
So,
during
the
preliminary
design,
the
the
cost
estimate
was
very
questionable
because
we
weren't
sure
whether
they
were
going
to
excavate
in
sand
or
in
clay.
We
did
the
geotech
work
and
we
found
it
to
be
clay,
which
was
a
big
cost
savings,
so
you
don't
have
as
much
spoil
removal
in
that
matter.
The
the
sides
of
the
wall
of
the
trench
stay
up
better
under
that
situation.
C
The
design
at
780
000
compared
to
the
estimated
construction
cost
of
35
million
dollars,
is
only
2.2
percent.
The
construction
engineering
as
which
we
have
not
awarded
yet
I
don't
believe
that
1.5
million
is
4.3
of
the
estimated
construction
cost
so
total.
The
engineering
on
this
project
is
6.5
percent
of
the
estimated
construction
cost,
which
is
the
right
range
for
projects
of
this
magnitude.
C
If
this
was
a
a
three
million
dollar
job
or
a
five
million
dollar
job,
you
might
expect
engineering,
design
and
cons
and
observation
during
construction
to
be
more
in
the
range
to
ten
to
fifteen
percent,
but
realizing
that
the
magnitude
of
this
project
to
be
around
six
point,
five
percent-
is
the
appropriate
level
when,
as
engineers,
look
at
this,
the
with
you
well
I'll
start
with
the
state
revolving
loan
fund.
C
These
are
the
types
of
phone
funds
that
we
have
frequently
got
at
the
water
plant,
not
only
through
our
long
range
sewer
project,
but
also
for
other
projects
at
the
water
plant
and
sometimes
on
sewer
projects
as
well.
The
new
item
that
we're
looking
at
now
is
the
wifi
funding
and
and
there's
well,
I'm
sorry.
The
state
revolving
loan
fund
is
at
one
point
one
one
percent:
the
wifi
funding
is
estimated
to
be
around
two
percent.
C
They
don't
lock
into
the
guaranteed
interest
rate
until
you
sign
the
agreement,
it's
kind
of
like
the
day
of
type
of
thing
that
you
some
that
they
write
that
in
but
right
now
it's
around
two
percent.
C
The
benefit
of
the
wifi
of
funding
is
that
we
actually
get
30
years
of
debt
service
rather
than
20
years,
and
we
don't
have
to
start
paying
debt
service
until
two
years
after
the
project
is
complete,
which
is
a
benefit
for
the
city,
because
if
we
complete
this
project
in
23,
we
won't
start
charging
our
wholesale
water
customers
until
25
and
and
so
not
having
the
debt
service
start
until
25.
When
we
start
getting
the
income
from
our
wholesale
water
customers
is
a
big
benefit.
C
Last
meeting,
I
put
this
slide
up
here
this.
This
is
an
example
of
of
how
these
loan
funds
and
these
low
interest
loans
work
to
our
benefit.
C
C
Our
debt
service
is
1.1
million,
so
our
wholesale
water
customers
are
are
paying
the
entire
price
of
this
debt
obligation.
There
is
no
cost
increase
going
to
the
evanston
retail
customers
by
completing
this
20
million
dollar
project.
It
will
be
the
same
results
when
we
borrow
money
at
this
low
interest
rate
for
the
intake
project.
So
this
is
a
a
real
benefit
to
being.
A
wholesale
supplier
is
that
projects
that
are
completed
at
the
water
plant
and
the
water
plant
is
used
by
all
the
customers
of
the
water
plant
day
payer.
C
They
bear
the
cost,
we're
charging
nine
and
a
half
percent
return
on
investment
rate
to
our
wholesale
customers
and
we're
borrowing
the
money
at
1.2
percent
or
2.0
percent.
There's
a
lot
of
return
on
investment
money
to
be
made
there
for
the
city
of
evanston
and
and
so
again,
that's
just
an
example
where
our
wholesale
water
customers
are
completely
paying
the
debt
service
of
the
intake
for
our
wholesale
water
customers.
C
A
Thank
you
very
much
director
for
your
explanation
and
just
before
we
open
it
up
for
questions.
So,
a
couple
of
years
ago
we
went
into
the
selling
water,
like
we
understood.
A
But
I
do
thank
you
very
much
direct
for
taking
the
time
to
go
through
the
details
of
this,
because
it's
really
important
that
we
understand
you
know
as
a
council,
all
the
inner
workings
of
what
it
costs
to
deliver
water.
So
I
have
two
two
speakers.
We
do
have
two
folks
for
public
comments,
so
if
it's
all
right,
councilman
newsman
kelly,
can
we
just
hear
the
comments
and
then
we'll
address
your
questions
and
we'll
take
the
vote.
Thank
you
very
much
who's.
O
A
Okay,
thank
you
for
joining
us.
You
have
two
minutes.
O
Hi
good
evening,
everyone-
so
I
wanted
to
if,
if
I'm
hearing
the
director
correctly,
that
this
will
not
come
back
on
the
current
evanston
residents
that
pay
water
and
sewer
bills,
because
even
though
many
years
we
have
talked
about
lowering
the
water
and
sewer
charge,
the
bill
keeps
going
up.
Every
time.
O
I
go
to
the
pay
my
bill
and
with
this
project
of
this
magnitude
seems
like
if
this
is
going
to
affect
the
community,
somehow
that
we
should
have
some
kind
of
meeting
to
discuss
this
large
sum
of
money
and
as
far
as
replacing
the
pipes
at
the
homeowners
residents,
maybe
somehow
we
could
use
some
of
this
money
to
do
that,
because
this
is
all
connected.
O
O
So
thank
you
and
black
lives
matter.
I
hope
you
can
answer
the
question.
A
B
P
Okay,
my
main
question
is
number
one:
I'm
very
concerned
about
the
city
indebting
us
for
another
30
or
40
years,
without
experiencing
or
trying
to
look
at
other
ways
to
develop
funds,
if
not
from
the
american
recovery
act.
There
should
be
other
ways
that
the
citizens
are
not
burdened
by
this
a
huge
indebtedness,
and
I
wish
you
would
investigate
many
other
ways
before
you
start
voting
on
approving
this
project.
Thank
you.
A
Thank
you
very
much.
Next,
we
have
council
member
new
small,
followed
by
council
member
kelly.
B
Thank
you,
mr
chair.
I've
been
following
this
project
since
its
earliest
discussions
at
the
utilities
commission
several
years
ago,
so
I
am
fully
in
favor
of
this
moving
forward.
Just
have
a
couple
of
questions
to
clarify
director
stoneback.
Will
this
new
pipeline
increase
the
capacity
of
our
our
processing
plant.
C
B
So,
there's
not
a
possibility
that
by
installing
this
new
intake
we
would
be
able
to
unlock
some
capacity
for
additional
wholesale
customers.
C
No,
what
is
limiting
us
now
is
our
filter
beds,
how
much
water
we
can
pass
through
the
water
plant.
Okay,.
B
C
That
would
be
the
life
cycle
that
we,
when
we
make
it
an
asset
we
will
put
in
as
a
99-year
life
cycle.
Okay,
that's
awesome.
Okay,.
B
And
the
engineering
costs
that
781
thousand
dollars
that
are
included
in
the
the
total
of
41,
some
million
dollars.
Does
that
include
preliminary
engineering
that
we've
already
paid.
B
And
so
then,
just
to
clarify
some
of
the
comments
from
from
the
public
comment.
B
It's
our
expectation
that
this
this
project
and
these
bonds
will
not
impose
any
additional
financial
burden
on
evanston
taxpayers
or
evanston
water
customers.
C
That
is
correct:
evanston
is
only
using
15
percent
of
the
water
plant.
Our
wholesale
water
customers
use
the
other
five
percent
if
you
will,
and
so
when
we
share
these
water
plant
assets
with
our
whole
sale,
water
customers
and
we
have
the
benefit
of
the
very
low
interest
rates
to
borrow
money
compared
to
the
nine
and
a
half
percent
return
on
rate.
What
I
showed
with
the
clearwell
is
an
example
that
our
retail
customers
do
not
have
to
help
pay
to
burn
into
the
debt
service.
C
C
I
will
and
I
at
the
last
meeting
I
indicate
that
we
are
looking
to
raise
the
water
rate
lower
the
sewer
rate,
but
overall
it
will
be
a
1.96
percent
rate
increase
to
the
evanston
customers.
It
will
be
10
and
92
cents.
Annually,
I
believe,
is
how
it
will
impact
the
residents.
C
But
the
reason
we
need
to
raise
the
water
rates
is
the
the
cost
of
replacing
water
mains
in
evanston
and
the
lead
service
lines.
So
those
are
not
costs
that
those
infrastructures
do
not
benefit
our
wholesale
water
customers
and
therefore
I
can't
share
that
cost
of
doing
that
work
with
our
wholesale
customers.
B
B
C
Slowly
rate
increases
yes
and
when
we're
spending
close
to
four
million
dollars
a
year
to
replace
water
mains,
and
now
that
we
have
to
replace
the
lead
service
pipes
as
well,
we
estimate
that
will
be
another
1.5
million,
so
our
annual
water
main
replacement
cost
is
now
going
to
be
up
around
five
and
a
half
million
dollars.
This
additional
revenue
that
we
receive
from
our
wholesale
water
customers
for
assets
like
this
is
what
is
allowing
the
water
fund
to
pay
for
a
lot
of
that
without
having
big
large
rate
increases.
C
E
E
Right
so,
in
fact,
we
only
need,
though,
we've
already
we've
already,
because
it
looks
like
when
I
just
tracked
back
where
it
said
legislative
history
that
in
2019
in
april
we
approved
a
contract
for
300,
and
then
we
said
in
2020.
We
would
allocate
another
300
towards
design
engineering
for
this,
so
that
has
already
been.
I
mean,
we've
already
paid
right,
600
000
toward
this.
E
C
E
C
E
C
E
B
E
But
I
think
we
have
to
be-
I
mean
our.
We
also
rely.
We
get
a
lot
of
money
from
our
water
and
some
of
that
gets
transferred
back
into
our
general
fund.
I
mean
it's
not
like
all
the
money
we
get
is
just
paying,
for
I
mean
we
rely
on
that
income,
so
I
just
don't
want
to
you
know
I
want
to
make
it
clear.
We
rely
on
this
for
our
budget
and
for
our
general
fund.
We
transfer
money
back
in.
So
it's
not
all
just
you
know.
C
Correct
we,
the
water
fund,
I
think
transfers
close
to
3.8
million
dollars
to
the
general
fund
annually.
Right
now,
we're
also
transferring
a
million
dollars,
above
our
normal
transfer,
to
the
insurance
fund
to
help
brighten
that
ship
as
well,
and
the
sewer
fund
transfers,
800
000,
I
think,
to
the
general
fund.
E
So,
and
is
there
any,
I
mean
in
terms
of
what
you
described,
you
know
increased
diameter
correct
and
I
can't
remember
all
the
terminology,
but
the
smoothness
and
the
anti-muscle
stuff,
and
all
that
I
mean,
will
there
be
an
incre
like
a
cost
savings,
increased
efficiency,
that'll
save
on
maintenance,
like
what
is
I
mean
ultimately.
Is
there
what
cost
will
decrease
as
a
result
of
a
more
I
take
it
a
much
more
efficient
system.
C
E
C
C
E
E
Thank
you,
and
then
I
appreciate
you
know
the
five-year
outlay
on
this,
but
it
seems
like
it
would
be
not.
It
would
be
great
to
have
more
explicit
detail
like,
since
it
is
a
30-year
we're
looking
at
a
20
and
a
30-year-
and
I
know
one
the
state
one
is
is
couched
on
our
water
revenue,
whereas
the
federal
one,
the
us
epa
is
more
like
a
bond,
but
still
it
would
be
nice
to
have
a
little
more
detail
with
regard
to
assumptions
on
inflation.
You
know
going
out
further
than
I.
E
C
And
that
is
available
and
right
now
we're
we're
basically
trying
to
the
waterfront
is
trying
to
keep
it
at
a
two
percent
around
the
two
percent
rate
increase
every
four
years
is
all
we're.
Looking
for,
and
water
and
sewer
rate
increases
as
we
project
it
right
now.
That
does
not
include
financing
light
service
line
replacement
because
we're
all
hoping
that
some
kind
of
money
comes
down
either
from
the
state
or
through
the
federal
government
to
to
do
that.
Work.
A
D
Director
stone
back
so
can
you
explain
one
more
time
how,
where
the,
how
the
offset
amount
comes
from
I've
heard
two
different
things:
I've
heard
like
we're
going
to
adjust
the
water
rate
for
our
retail
customers,
our
customers
and
then
I've
also
heard
it's
a
return
on
investment,
which
I
see
those
things
a
little
differently
in
in
my
world.
So
I'm
just.
Can
you
explain?
D
C
C
E
C
A
C
And
it's
that
high,
because
right
now,
there's
so
much
work
taking
place
on
the
lake
everybody's
trying
to
rebuild
their
their
rock
wall,
revetments
and
and
so
and
then
there
are
two
other
intake
projects
that
are
being
designed
right
now
and
we're
hoping
to
be
out
there.
We
should
be
the
first
ones
out
there
and
hopefully
get
the
best
price.
A
A
And
then
item
a10,
which
travels
along
with
this,
is
ordinance
94-021
authorizing
the
city
to
borrow
funds
from
the
illinois
environmental
protection
agency
for
the
public
water
supply
loan
program.
That's
in
the
dollar
amount
of
21
million,
220
thousand
seventy
three
dollars
and
that's
coming
from
the
ipa
director.
Can
you
oh
please
call
the
roll.
J
A
Perfect
and
then
our
final
item
is
item
a11.
It's
the
ordinance,
1060-21
amending
title
10,
chapter
11,
section,
10
limited
to
the
parking
excuse
me
limited
parking,
limited
parking,
lakefront
parking
and
then
our
staff
is
is
making
the
recommendation
that
we
adopt
the
sword
to
mend
chapter
1011
section
10,
limiting
the
parking
schedule
execute
lakefront
parking.
This
ordinance
will
make
the
lakefront
pilot
program
a
year,
long
program
with
demand-based
pricing
rate
at
three
dollars
an
hour
april
1st
through
october
31st
and
the
community,
rated
50
cents
will
be
from
november
through
march
31st.
B
A
Okay,
it's
been
properly
moved
in
seconded,
seeing
no
lights
for
discussion.
Direct,
oh
yeah
directly,
go
ahead
and
call
the
the
vote.
D
E
E
A
A
Second,
it's
been
properly
moved
in
seconded.
This
concludes.
Our
administrative
and
public
works
meeting
city
council
will
start
bio
break
meal
in
10
minutes
at
8.
40.
Excuse
