MINUTES OF A BUDGET WORKSHOP MEETING OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES, HELD ON OCTOBER 30, 2008, IN THE TRUSTEE'S CONFERENCE ROOM RICHARD T. FLICKINGER MUNICIPAL CENTER 6101 CAPULINA AVENUE, MORTON GROVE, ILLINOIS 60053 Pursuant to proper. notice in accordance with the Open Meetings Act, the Budget Workshop was called to order at '7:OOpm by Mayor Richard Krier. Clerk Fritzshall called the roll. In attendance were: Elected Officials: President Richard Krier, Trustees Gebtgianne Bruimer, Roy Kogstad, Sheldon Marcus, Rita Minx, D'an Staackmann, John Thill. and Cleric Carol A. Fritzshall Absent: None Village Staff: Police Chief Paul L. Ta~c11,.IT Administrator Boyle Wbhg, Community and Economic Development Director Bill Neuendorf, Building Commissioner Ed Hildebrandt, Assistant Finance Director Ryan Honie, Public Works Director Andy DeMonte, Superintendent Joseph Dalnn, Superintendent Paul Tasch, Fire Chief Tom Friel, Family and Senior Services Director Jackie Walker O'Keefe, Finance Director Daniela Partipilo, Village Administrator Joseph ~. Wade, Gorj~oration Counsel Teresa Hoffman Liston Also Present: Several members of t1~e public Mayor Krier thal~lced everyone for coming ;and introduced Village Administrator Joseph F. Wade. Mr. Wade stated the two other worTcshops were held to present departmental budgets. This budgef workshop is intended to review various areas of various policy points. He stated these riseetings will be televised and staff ~ working on putting each workshop on cable tv as well~trauscrtbe them to written aninutes He thanked everyone for coming this evening. Trustee ICogstiad stated he wanted to make a presentation Phis evening concenling the 2009 budget document. ITe wanted to review the budgef and stated he felt there were many inconsistencies which malc~'tt difficult for him, as an elected official, to issue an opinion on this budget document. Trustee Kogstad stated he has found various inconsistencies and problerns with the budget document, and has made recommendations and suggestions to improve the document. Some Board members voiced disappointment Trustee Kogstad had not provided them with handouts before ti?is presentation aild insisted copies be provided so they could follow along with his presentation. A document was copied from the computer and handed out to the Board. Mayor Krier expressed concern that no one had the opportunity to review this presentation ahead of time as is afforded to Mr. Kogstad and all other Board members with all Village documents. Trustee Kogstad thenbegan his presentation by stating the budget compares a lot of numbers. He feels the budget inconsistencies start in the 2007 Adopted Budget when he compares that document with the audited document for the same time period. Following a brief discussion, the Finance Director instructed several copies of the audit be brought up from the Finance Department and provided to the Board for their use. Trustee Kogstad stated there needs to be a beginning point when preparing a budget document and with the amount of differentials that is difficult. Ms. Par-tipilo explained the audit document takes transfers from other funds to the General Fund or from the General Fund to the other funds and reduces expenditures by the type of program; i.e., water/sewer fund -those expenses are reduced by the amount of the transfer made to other funds. Those amounts should equal out at the conclusiori'and the audit for that particular year. She went on to state there will be subtractions from the amount originally budgeted and there needs to be a record of each reduction and expenditure. The budget document, itself, is a spending document and therefore Iluid.` "There will` always be a differential between the two documents because the budget is a workingdocument. Trustee Kogstad stated the numbers dou't match between the two documents when he compares the finalized 2007 budget docmnent with the audit report. Ms. Partipilo stated the numbers could be different because there are imbedded formulas within the document that could: in fact, be incorrect causing that particular differential. The Board tried to understand the comparisons as Trustee Kogstad explained them. Trustee Minx tried to clarify what Trustee Kogstad was presenting so the au~liarice, as well as the Board were able to understand what points Trustee TCogstad was making. It~is understood expenditures and revenues should equal out at the end of the year. Mayor Knee stated, that is why an auditor is hired each year, so a comparison is made and aIT monies are'necounted for. Trustee Brunner was concerned staff was not prepared to answer all. the questions set forth in this meeting. She was also concerned Trustee Kogstad was pointing out that staff was doing Krier expressed concern this discussion is giuir~g resident's the idea they were paying too much in taxes, when infac# the Village has deferred repairs to roadways and obtaining new important apparatus ~eeause there are not sufficient funds. Trustee Kogstad then proceeded with this presentation. He explained his methodology for measuring cash, the fund balance and net assets which he felt had changed and were not reflected properly. Theme was concem'Trustee Kogstad was not plamling for unexpected events such as this year's escalating gas prices and the dramatic increase in the cost of salt for the winter snow season. Trustee Kogaiad pointed out the projections were incorrect when the budget was prepared. and consequently there have been many overages. A discussion ensued on revenues vs expenditures. The Board also discussed Trustee Kogstad's inference that the Budget was "screwed up" because a decision was made not to purchase or spend all the budgeted items. After continued discussion on pros and cons of surpluses, Trustee Marcus felt rt is how you took at the figures contained within the budget and how you compare those numbers when preparing next year's budget that is important. Discussion then moved to 2009 Budget Projections. It was stated staff does calculate on the conservative side rather than over expend on what revenue will be for the coming year. Trustee Minx stated if you spend more than you take in you will eventually end up with a year where you have no money and then where will you get it from if you do not have any reserves or underestimates for that year. $he felt various unexpected events, such as the storm in September, are not being taken into account with Trustee Kogstad's various presentations and number differences this evening. Trustee Brunner stated nothing in the 2009 Budget will be exact at this time. This document is intended to be a best guess estimate as prepared by staff and reviewed by this Board. Trustee Kogstad then. made his 2009 budget recommendations: • Compare this budget using nine months of actual numbers, not six.' • Staff should do better forecasting of revenue trends. • The Village should freeze discretionary spending by spending only `what is necessary such as police and fire services, road improvements, etc. • The Board should have the opportunity to review "all" capital expenditures. The Board should decide what is necessary to leave in the budget, not staff. Several Bdard members felt this was micro-managing the professional staff. 1. • Trustee Kogstad would like to remove reserves aiid°.have no contineencv reserve. Trustee Kogstad would like to have quarterly budget reviey/ sessions to avoid~overspeud by various departments. He feels monies can be transferred from other funds to the'General Fund when the need arises and he outlined his suggestions as they pertained to the variops funds. This year, Trustee Kogstad estimated $850,000 in additiorra3lmonies were available for the General Fund and could help balance the $3 million shortfall: He then went on to explain his ideas to present a fund balance`analysis. Trustee Minx felt this analysis was flawed because he is using a "Mastercard to pay a Visa bill" methodology. She feels staff has been working with the entire document and not taking snapshots and pulling out random numbers to create a specific scenario to suite particular agenda. GO bonds as suggested by Trustee Kogstad should not he taken out Yo payout the General Fund. This maybe legal but is this the bes£ tfiinQ for the Villaee2 Mr. Kdgstad then presented lris reasons for reducing the property tax rate. • He stated residents have received a 28% increase in their Village taxes over the last three years. He stated there is a "windfall tax" and residents are hurting. He felt the CPI went up 30%. He also felt the Village could have paid some bills and deferred others. He felt a capital plan is needed to give back part of the 20% increase residents have received in their taxes. 11~e Mayor stated the Village portion of his tax bill figures out to $60 per month. He did not believe. thati was a great dea] of money considering the fine services he receives which include police protection, fire/paramedic services, fi•esh water, and sewage, not to mention street repairs and snowplowing. Trustee Kogstad felt services could be obtained for 10% or 15% rather than 28%. Trustee Minx reminded the Board that the Village is paying more than $1 n1i11iou more in pension allocations fllan would have been necessary if the previous achnirvstrationhed allocated the appropriate monies ten years ago. She hoped Trustee Kogstad was not saying we should not fund the pension funds? This would put them in a precarious position and funding would become even more difficult in the future. Trustee Kogstad felt basic services should be provided to residents such as police, fire, and public works. However the Village should take a serious look to what extent we should provide those services. He also suggested possibly some employees should be furloughed. Mayor Krier asked if Trustee Kogstad had discussed this with the various Department Directors? Had he inquired on whether they felt they had excess employees and whether he has a plan on how to cut staff without cutting services? Trustee Kogstad stated this is only a suggestion on how the Village could move forward and manage its funding and service levels. Mayor Krier asked staff and the Board whether there were any areas where these cuts could be made? There was no response. Trustee Kogstad also stated be looked at as a way to also save money. Mayor Krier expressed co Kogstad is not making appropriate suggestions on how to help or cor or situation in the budget but rather "points fingers" with no ultimate Trustee Minx stated our snowplowing is exceptional. She believes t type of service. Should we eliminate snowplowing or now plow anti the ground? Where do we cut? Do we not have leaf pickup? Do we services? Do we not provide any emergency res She asked Trustee Kogstad what does minimum He had no response. Trustee Minx asked is this • Trustee Kogstad feels the Village should reduce excessive fund balance in the process. ; , Trustee Marcus felt the purpose of the overall budget disco determine where the tax levy should be in order to provide; residents for their safety and wellbeing.

He would Trustee Brunner stated she would also like to further'discuss the pension differentials between the state's report and the actuary:; Mayor Krier stated that would be approximately $50,000. Either arnomit is acceptable bylaw.. However, what should be considered is the additional possibility of a downturn and resultant additional payment to the pension funds. Trustee Brunner asked that his item be on the ziext workshop agenda. No Board member was willing to vote on this matter at his time. The Board then discussed and discussed an additional meeting would be held on November 5, 2008; at 7:00 pm. Mayor Krier called for;any resident comments: A woman in the audience stated there would be no cost savings if snowplowing was cut back since there would be more accidents and consequently more police calls. Mr. Eric Poders wanted to know when the minutes would be ready from these various workshops. He also wanted to laiow when The videos would be made available. Mayor Krier stated staff is working on preparing the minutes as well as the videos, but it does take time. We have minimal staff and they are working as quickly as possible. There being no further business, Trustee Minx moved to adjourn the budget workshop. The motion was seconded by Trustee Marcus and approved unanimously pursuant to a voice vote at 9:58 pm.

Presentation of Champion and Heritage Tree Designation to the Village Mary Busch, Chairman of the Natural Resource Commission, and John Slater, representing the Morton Grove Historical Society, presented a certificate to Mayor Krier for aVillage-owned champion and heritage tree. She explained that the Champion and Heritage Tree Designation Program is a shared effort between the Commission and the Historical Society to recognize exceptional trees. She then read the Commission's mission statement: "The Natural Resource Commission was established to make investigations and recommendations to the Board of Trustees to preserve, conserve, enhance and protect the natural environment and natural resources of the Village. It also promotes public interest, awareness, and education for the responsible management of these resources. The Commission hears appeals and requests for exemptions regarding tree permits and the replacement of trees. It serves as liaison between the Village and other governmental, public, and private agencies to encourage the development of programs and management of land that support the conservation and the improvement and the enhancement of the environment." Mr. Slater summed up the mission of the Historical Society: "to preserve something from the past for the future; to allow, permit, and encourage all segments and all ethnicities of this Village to participate in sharing their cultures, and to support the program of the Natural Resource Commission in protecting, developing, and improving one of the Village's greatest assets, its natural scene." Mr. Slater said that this program recognizes exceptional trees, commenting on the beauty of the past month. All year round, we take trees for granted. This program should alert more people to the value of our trees and the necessity of protecting them. The Village's tree is a hackberry tree located in the parkway at 8543 School Street. The program has identified several trees on private property as well. Ms. Busch said that this was the first year of this program. Every year six trees will be recognized; every tree that was recognized this year was between 200 and 300 years old. VI. RESIDENTS' COMMENTS (Agenda Items Only) NONE VII.
