Item C, Resolution 2026 R006 64 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:17,840 for membership in the North Central Illinois Council of Governments. 65 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:22,120 Do you want me to take this or do you want me to? 66 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:27,520 » Um I have been in contact with the N NCICG as they're otherwise known. Um 67 00:06:24,840 --> 00:06:32,480 some of us who maybe have gone to some of the legislature uh sessions, 68 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:37,040 kind of learning sessions that our representatives have had, may have met 69 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:44,360 people from NCICG. And they're a consortium of um cities in 70 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:48,640 a seven-county region, including Livingston County. 71 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:52,680 And they work for the governments um to help with grants, 72 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:57,680 um various other things that I mean you see 73 00:06:55,320 --> 00:07:03,000 some of their their stuff they've helped with. Um and Kevin Lindeman, who is the 74 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:06,800 president or executive director, I'm not sure really exactly what his title is, 75 00:07:04,919 --> 00:07:11,480 he and I have spoken about some of the benefits that they could do for us. We 76 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:16,480 actually reached out to them a few months ago about helping us with um a 77 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:19,240 housing a community development block grant, because that's one of the things 78 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:25,000 they can do. And um while they do some work for 79 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:30,880 outside agencies that don't belong to them, they were too busy to take on an 80 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:37,120 entity that does not already belong to their organization. And so could not 81 00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:40,919 help us. Um So, but Kevin, you know, he sent me all the information about how 82 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:45,280 much it would cost, which as you see is $3,300 a year. It's a per capita based 83 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:47,960 um fee. And 84 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:51,760 there's a lot of things then that we could ask them to help us with. For 85 00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:56,040 instance, grant writing. Um there would be a fee associated with the programs 86 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:59,880 that we would use of theirs. However, it would be at a much less cost than what 87 00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:05,840 we might have from another um organization or entity. 88 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:09,360 The Community Development Block Grant um Illinois and the federal government 89 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:13,040 actually required that we use a certified grant organization to submit 90 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:20,320 that. We couldn't try to do it ourselves. And this is one agency that 91 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:24,240 could do it. Um So that kind of um you know, further. And so then he sent 92 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:28,120 me back all the stuff. I did reach out to Morris' mayor who I I have had some 93 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:32,400 conversations with over the last few months about other things. And Morris is 94 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:36,440 a member and um Chris Brown who is their mayor, he was 95 00:08:34,039 --> 00:08:41,039 like they've they helped them immensely with things. And so highly recommended 96 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:44,600 um you know, that it would be a good fit for us. Um they have a lot of a lot of 97 00:08:43,159 --> 00:08:47,200 services that we might be able to take advantage of. So 98 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:52,880 um may well be worth our $3,300 and then 99 00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:56,920 some to get some help because we all know that we don't really have we 100 00:08:55,160 --> 00:09:01,800 don't have enough people to try to do some of these things for planning 101 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:05,520 particularly. Um so that's my ask. But we have it requires a 102 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:10,200 a resolution um by the council to approve the 103 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:15,360 membership. >> That seems to be a uh 104 00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:19,200 a very unique uh 105 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:20,680 the ability to write grants. >> It is. 106 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:22,280 » seems to be >> Mhm. 107 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:25,271 » unique. Um I don't think I have that ability. 108 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:27,800 » Yeah. >> [laughter] 109 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:32,040 » I take my hat off to someone who does. >> You have to be a wordsmith for sure. 110 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:36,839 Tell a good story. >> Yeah, I think that and and being on that 111 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:38,080 doing it over and over and having that experience. 112 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:42,400 » Mhm. >> If if you looked in here one of the ones 113 00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:47,240 that they touted was Illinois Main Street's downtown grants, 114 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:51,200 which would be perfect timing for for that as well. 115 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:55,880 Um you know, we went we applied for the one 116 00:09:53,000 --> 00:10:00,240 that grant downtown with Chamlin Associates and we didn't 117 00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:06,360 get it. And um as the mayor said, these guys are one 118 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:10,760 that's one of those certified grants uh and so the state already knows who they 119 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:14,440 are. So, I think can't hurt us any. While you don't 120 00:10:12,680 --> 00:10:18,200 necessarily need that for the downtown grant, but 121 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:21,800 it can't hurt when they see the same companies coming 122 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:24,600 uh to them for the grants. >> So, we're 123 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:29,240 we're in we're engaging this organization as a member. And then when 124 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:31,960 they write a grant, we pay. 125 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:35,240 » Right. There would be other fees. And the fees [clears throat] I 126 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:39,360 he didn't he didn't send me any kind of a fee schedule. It's all it's about the 127 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:43,720 grants and you know, there's it may be a percentage of what you get. Um I didn't 128 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:46,320 get into details with that of him. >> I think typically it's just going to be 129 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:49,960 an at cost. >> Yeah. 130 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:52,839 Ironically, one of the gentlemen who I met 131 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:56,440 at one of the sessions I think when I went to last um 132 00:10:55,040 --> 00:11:01,120 summer, I met one of the guys on the team, Ryan 133 00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:04,720 Hogan. And it turns out Ryan Hogan's parents are from Pontiac and he grew up 134 00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:07,880 in Dwight. And he didn't tell me any of that. And I saw him at a ballgame this 135 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:13,600 summer. I was like, "I know you from somewhere." And then it dawned on me 136 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:17,360 that he's one of their grant writers. >> I see this as really an added resource. 137 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:20,552 So, what we've already done with the land bank and all the things that we've 138 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:22,960 been trying to do with >> [clears throat] 139 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:26,520 » housing that this is just a a natural plus. 140 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:28,640 » So, is that your motion? >> That'd be my motion to approve. 141 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:33,360 » Okay.

Sarah and I completed the survey and sent it out to 173 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:17,400 everybody for a test and we made a couple revisions. I got it republished 174 00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:21,600 today in the revised format. Thank you everybody who 175 00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:26,160 did fill out one.

I think it's going to be a really big hurdle to jump 183 00:13:54,960 --> 00:14:01,720 through with we have to send them a letter of allowance request of what we 184 00:13:59,560 --> 00:14:08,560 want to do out there and they have to approve that before we can even submit 185 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:08,560 it to the grant. And um 186 00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:11,600 » And where is that? That's on what? >> The 116 187 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:14,480 » 116 section. >> section. 188 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:19,440 » That's pretty understandable. >> Um but Steve didn't I mean the engineer, 189 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:22,360 he didn't he didn't sway me from not doing it. He's like, you know, there's 190 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:25,400 just a lot of things that we're going to have to consider before we're going to 191 00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:29,520 tell you it's okay. And um 192 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:33,320 but Brian, we just decided that, you know, let's let's go with the letter. 193 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:37,760 All they can do is tell us no at this point. It's a start in the planning of 194 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:42,120 getting a sidewalk out there because we all know that we need access and so 195 00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:47,000 maybe we can't submit the grant for that piece, but it will start the ball 196 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:51,680 rolling. Um the ditches are very problematic. Um they're going to create 197 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:56,480 a lot of a situation with more expenditure and to 198 00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:59,560 examine the hydraulics of the water moving and because we'll have to have 199 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:04,280 fill. We can we it's going to require at least a 200 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:07,560 15-ft area um and so um 201 00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:12,440 you know, I'm so we'll we're going to get the letter ready and send it off to 202 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:16,680 them and keep progressing with what we want, but it might And Deerfield Road is 203 00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:20,040 really the same. It's the ditches are going to be um 204 00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:25,480 so, but we have to plan no matter what, and so 205 00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:30,110 this starts the planning. >> Do we submit a plan? 206 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:30,720 A graphic plan >> [clears throat] 207 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,840 » to them? >> With the grant or to IDOT? 208 00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:37,800 » To IDOT. >> No, uh the letter we have to send is 209 00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:44,520 just telling them what we would like to do to install the multi-use path, have 210 00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:48,680 crosswalks that people can um so it would require, you know, some different 211 00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:53,440 lights at those intersections. It would require a push button. Um we'll have to 212 00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:58,400 say that we believe there's going to have to be some fill and change made to 213 00:15:55,200 --> 00:16:03,480 the ditches. And so that, you know, it's they'll say whether or not the 214 00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:09,080 the flow of the water if, you know, is impacted, they may say, you know, we 215 00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:16,480 have to do more. And um so but at least it no matter what, we get the process 216 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:19,960 started. And it shows our want of that. >> It Can you 217 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:26,120 So it sounds like now that you take a look at some of that looks like it's a 218 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:31,560 bigger hurdle than expected. So it may make this particular grant 219 00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:35,080 less chance. So can you have a Can you put two grants 220 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:36,960 in? Can you have a >> We can put two grants in. 221 00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:38,839 » Can you >> We can put five grants in. 222 00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:40,839 » Right. >> It's just having the time to get them 223 00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:44,280 all ready. >> Yeah, the other parts of the trail 224 00:16:42,839 --> 00:16:49,200 structure that we were looking at. >> Yeah, that that's that's 225 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:53,720 » has none of those problems. >> As long as we have connections. It's got 226 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:58,000 to be providing a connection. So, I mean, that's that's definitely worth 227 00:16:56,520 --> 00:17:03,600 looking at. Um because, yeah, it'd be too bad to 228 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:06,680 pass up an opportunity for a grant if we can get it submitted and get it done. 229 00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:08,920 » Yeah. >> And get it get get it back. 230 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:13,720 » Well, we were >> Steve, yeah, the engineer, even he was 231 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:16,560 like, I want my region to get money, so >> Yeah. 232 00:17:14,120 --> 00:17:19,520 » I mean, he was really he was beneficial on the phone. So. 233 00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:24,319 Anyway. That's my report on that piece. Um, just 234 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:29,160 a teaser. I'm working on a scarecrow decorating contest for downtown. Um, 235 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:31,320 more to come at later in this month, but um 236 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:34,120 I will be looking for artists who want to 237 00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:37,960 to do that. So. That's all I have. Any city council 238 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:42,480 comments? >> When the survey goes out please fill it 239 00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:46,120 out as soon as you can cuz it's a very tight turnaround to get this grant. 240 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:50,840 There's a lot of people that work out there that may not have cars or good 241 00:17:48,360 --> 00:17:54,920 vehicles to get out there and it's very it's not safe right now the way it's 242 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:58,880 going on and that's a state road and we need state help to do it. So, when we 243 00:17:56,560 --> 00:18:03,960 start advertising for this survey, please share. It takes 5 minutes to do. 244 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:08,200 And just fill it out honestly so that we have some good feedback to put into the 245 00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:12,200 grant proposal. >> So, when we did it recently and then you 246 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:15,680 guys made revisions, can we then do it again or is that like voting twice or is 247 00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:18,800 » We're going to probably reset it cuz the question they 248 00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:22,240 » to I had to reset it, but it did not erase the answers that were had already 249 00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:25,480 been submitted.

I don't know who did 252 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:33,440 » yeah. But it's important that especially if 253 00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:35,000 you live out there in those areas or if you use you 254 00:18:34,822 --> 00:18:38,120 » [cough and clears throat] >> go out there on your bike or whatever, 255 00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:41,960 you work out there. Please answer. Yeah. 256 00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:45,360 » I'm not sure the revisions really would make like doing it again would be an 257 00:18:44,360 --> 00:18:48,840 impact. >> Did you change any of the answers? 258 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:51,720 » Uh, just slightly. >> Okay. 259 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:55,080 » I mean it wasn't, you know, it was from somewhat likely to likely.

It's kind of a safety thing 272 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:44,360 because people had to slow down and had to go down to one lane because they were 273 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:44,360 kind of 274 00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:50,200 jagged uh one foot further into the curb, one 275 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:54,280 further back out so that the traffic that was going both ways it impeded 276 00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:58,680 their progress. And then there was a couple 277 00:19:56,760 --> 00:20:04,880 riding their bicycles with their babies on the front of them 278 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:09,160 riding full bore through the crowd.
