CITY MANAGER'S OFFICE
Operating Under Council — Manager Government Since 1957
CITY COUNCIL MEETING
City Manager's Report
June 5, 2023
Item 23-2038 IHDA Strong Communities Program Grant Round 2
Staff recommends approval of a resolution of support for applying for the Illinois Housing
Development Authority's (IHDA) Strong Communities Program (SCP) Grant Round 2. In Round 1,
the City of Galesburg requested $250,000 and was awarded $175,000. These funds were fully
expended and reimbursed the City for the demolition of 12 homes. In Round 2, IHDA has
increased the amount that can be requested from $250,000 to $750,000. The City is requesting
$750,000 for acquisition and demolition of abandoned properties in 2022 and 2023 but can also
utilize these funds for weed and nuisance abatement on abandoned properties. Applications are
due June 7, 2023, and it is anticipated that the City will be notified of the award in September
2023. Local matching funds are not required.
Item 23-4046 Renewal of WIRC membership
Staff recommends approval of membership with the Western Illinois Regional Council (WIRC)
with an annual membership fee of $17,085.00. WIRC assists communities in the preparation and
administration of Community Development Block Grants (CDBG) for public infrastructure,
economic development, and housing lead remediation and rehab grants. They employ state
certified inspectors, construction specialists, and project administrators who can apply for and
process grants for local governments. WIRC is currently administering for the City the HELP Pilot
Grant, the HUD DCEO Lead Based Paint Grant, the HUD DCEO Healthy Homes Grant, Revolving
Loan Fund matching grant, and the Illinois Housing Development Authority (IHDA) Housing Repair
& Accessibility Program Grant.
Item 23-4047 Maintenance Agreement for Emergency Standby Generators
Staff recommends approval of a three year maintenance agreement with Altorfer Power Systems
in the amount of $13,792.00 per year for the Caterpillar Emergency Standby Generators. The
water division has three standby diesel generators (well field and water treatment plant in
Oquawka and pumping station in Galesburg) and one natural gas engine to use in emergency
situations during loss of Ameren power. These four units require routine maintenance to be
performed by a qualified Caterpillar trained technician, and the reliability of these units is critical
during emergency situations. The agreement calls for two service visits per year for each unit, for
a total of eight service visits costing $13,792.00 per year. There are sufficient funds in the Water
Division Budget (061).
Item 23-4048 Purchase of Phosphate Inhibitor
Staff recommends City Council waive normal purchasing policies to approve the purchase of one
bulk delivery of phosphate inhibitor from Hawkins, Inc. at a cost of $0.795 per pound. The bulk
Page 1 of 6
Back to Agenda
delivery is approximately 46,000 pounds. In the past, the City has obtained annual contracts for
the purchase of phosphate inhibitor. However, due to the volatility of pricing phosphate inhibitor,
the vendor is only able to quote the phosphate inhibitor for each bulk delivery. The Water
Division has sufficient funds in their budget.
Item 23-4049 Purchase pricing for water meters and radio units
Staff recommends City Council waive normal purchasing policies and approve the product pricing
as provided by the authorized vendor in the Galesburg region, Core & Main, for various water
meters and radio units to be purchased by the water division. The vendor has provided pricing
through June 30, 2023, which provides for a total planned purchase of $100,770 for the purchase
of 500 meters and 500 radio units. The water division has sufficient funds in their budget for this
planned purchase.
Item 23-4050 Renewal of Agreement for use of Right of Way (ROW) by Unite Private Networks -
Illinois, LLC (UPN)
Staff recommends approval of a renewal agreement for use of ROW for installing a fiber optic
cable by Unite Private Networks -Illinois, LLC (UPN). At the May 21, 2012 City Council meeting,
the Council approved a five year agreement for UPN to install a fiber optic cable in the City's ROW
along various City streets. At the November 6, 2017 City Council meeting, the Council approved
a renewal of the agreement for an additional five years. The company has maintained their lines
to the City's satisfaction and followed the agreement. The renewal agreement is the same as the
previous agreements and provides approval for another five year period, renewable for up to five
additional five year terms.
Item 23-8010 Bills
Bills and Advanced Checks are submitted for approval. All purchases are made in accordance with
purchasing policies, with purchases over $25,000 utilizing the competitive bid process and
approved individually by City Council. Please direct questions pertaining to bills and/or advance
checks prior to the council meeting to Gloria Osborn, Director of Finance and Information
Systems.
ORDINANCES AND RESOLUTIONS
Item 23-1008 Sale of city owned property — 905 Maple Avenue (Final Reading)
An ordinance to direct the sale of a city -owned property, the former Churchill Junior High, located
at 905 Maple Avenue is provided for council consideration. The proposed timeline for the bid
process is outlined in the council letter. Any bids received would be required to be development
plan bids in order to allow the city to have more control over the proposed use of the property.
Through the development plan bid, the bidder submits detailed information on their plans for
the property, which must take place within two years of purchasing the property. If the plan is
not followed the City has recourse by being able to take back ownership of the property from the
bidder and the bidder forfeits 50% of their purchase price.
Item 23-1009 Amending section 30.06 regarding Public Participation (Final Reading)
Provided for council consideration are amendments to Section 30.06. This item was presented to
City Council for first reading on May 15, 2023 and at that time, the revisions included requiring
Page 2 of 6
Back to Agenda
speakers to sign -in and state a topic, as well as limited the time allowed for public comment to
two minutes per speaker. After the proposed ordinance was discussed at the city council work
session on May 22, 2023 the ordinance has been amended based on feedback from that meeting
to remove the sign -in requirement and adjust the time limit to three minutes. Per the request of
four city council members, language was also included to limit the total time allotted for public
comment to 60 minutes at regular city council meetings and 30 minutes at work sessions and
special city council meetings, as well as allow for the extension or movement of the time period
for public comment by the presiding officer with a vote of the majority of the city council.
Item 23-1010 Amending section 30.15 regarding Order of Business (Final Reading)
Provided for council consideration are amendments to Section 30.15(B) of Chapter 30 of the
Galesburg Municipal Code regarding the Order of Business of City Council meetings. Currently,
the public comment section of regular City Council meetings is held after roll call, reading of the
minutes, passage of ordinances and resolutions, and the opening and consideration of any bids.
This amendment to the Ordinance would change the order of business and place public comment
at the beginning of the agenda, after the reading, correction, and approval of minutes of the
previous meeting. The Order of Business also provides that Council members may make closing
statements on matters of general concern. This amended ordinance would provide that these
statements by Council members shall be limited to two minutes per Council member.
Item 23-1011 Amending section 30.02 regarding Regular Meetings, to amend the City Council
Meeting start time to 6:00 p.m. (Final Reading)
Provided for council consideration is an amendment to Section 30.02 of Chapter 30 of the
Galesburg Municipal Code regarding regular meetings. Currently, Section 30.02 provides that City
Council meetings shall start at 5:30 p.m. This amendment would change the start time of these
meetings from 5:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. to give members of the public an opportunity to participate
in all regular City Council meetings.
Item 23-1013 Independent Legislative Counsel (Final Reading)
Provided for council consideration is an ordinance authorizing the City Council to retain
independent legislative counsel. The proposed ordinance creates the position of legislative
counsel, and appoints the law firm of Ancel, Glink, P.C. to serve as the independent legislative
counsel for City Council members at the rate of $250 per hour for attorneys and $115 per hour
for paralegal services, plus expenses incurred, subject to an annual rate increase. The legislative
counsel would advise the City Council members regarding issues involving legislative duties, as
well as provide legal opinions. The legislative counsel shall not replace or usurp the powers of
the City Attorney.
Item 23-1014 Proposing amendment to Special Service Area Number One to provide a 10 year
extension of the $1.50 tax and establish a Public Hearing date (First Reading)
Staff recommends approval of an ordinance proposing amendment to Special Service Area
Number One to provide for a ten-year extension of the $1.50 tax. The Downtown Council utilizes
funds from this levy to cover a variety of expenses including administrative, maintenance, other
operational costs, as well as capital improvements (e.g., fagade grants). The third ten-year
extension was requested and approved in 2013 and this extension will expire with the 2023 levy
Page 3 of 6
Back to Agenda
for property taxes payable 2024. The Downtown Council has requested the City Council consider
another ten-year extension of the $1.50 tax. The process to initiate the ten-year extension begins
with the Council consideration of the attached ordinance that proposes the extension and
schedules a public hearing on the process. If this ordinance is approved, a legal notice is published
in the paper and all owners of property located within the Special Service Area are sent notice of
the public hearing. Once the public hearing is held, there is a 60-day period where no action can
be taken to give any objectors time to file a petition opposing the amendment. Once the 60-day
period expires, the City Council will consider an ordinance that approves the ten-year extension.
There would be no impact on the City's budget. The property owners in the Special Service Area
would pay additional property taxes to fund this.
Item 23-2027 Purchase of 435 E. Third Street — DEFERRED
This item was included on the May 1, 2023 agenda, at which time it was deferred to June 5, 2023.
Provided for council consideration is a resolution authorizing purchasing the property located at
435 E. Third Street for $350,000. The Bible Center Church & Rescue Mission plans to move their
operation from 435 E. Third Street to a new location on N. Farnham Street. It is proposed to
purchase their current location at 435 E. Third Street for $350,000 and partner with other local
agencies to provide housing for the homeless population. During the previous two years the
winter warming shelter was held at the City's Hawthorne Gym and then at the Knox County
Housing Authority's Moon Towers. The purchase of 435 E. Third Street will provide a permanent
location for a warming and/or homeless shelter in future years.
Item 23-2039 Pride Month
Staff recommends approval of a resolution declaring the month of June as LGBTQIA+ Pride
Month.
Item 23-2040 Release of December 5, 2022 and December 19, 2022 executive session minutes
Staff recommends approval of a resolution authorizing the release of executive session minutes
from December 5, 2022 and portions of the executive session minutes from December 19, 2022.
Item 23-2041 Acquisition of 782 Berrien Street for demolition
Staff recommends approval of a resolution to accept the donation of 782 E Berrien Street for
demolition. 782 E Berrien is in a dilapidated and dangerous condition, and the City Council
previously approved the initiation of the demolition action. After reviewing options to pursue
demolition, it was deemed the best course of action to accept donation of the property from the
estate of the deceased owner and move forward with demolition action.
Item 23-2042 Acting City Manager Pay
Staff recommends approval of a resolution authorizing a 10% increase in pay for Steve Gugliotta
for the duration of the time in which he serves as the Acting City Manager.
BIDS, PETITIONS AND COMMUNICATIONS
Item 23-3016 Sale of City Owned Real Estate
Staff recommends approval of the bids received for the sale of city owned real estate as outlined
in the attached council letter. Twelve vacant parcels were offered for sale. Bids were received on
Page 4 of 6
Back to Agenda
seven of the tracts that were offered for sale, with six parcels receiving a single bid and one parcel
with multiple bids. It is recommended to accept the sole bid on tracts 2, 3, 5,7, 8, and 12 and the
high and best bid on tract 11. Based upon the recommended actions, the City would collect
$2,262.00 for the sale of seven tracts. The City would eliminate all yearly maintenance costs
associated with these tracts. All funds received from the sale will go into fund 23 Property
Redevelopment.
Item 23-3017 Purchase of Fire Engine
Staff recommends approval of the purchase of a 2023 Alexis Spartan Fire Engine from Alexis Fire
Equipment in the amount of $622,917 with trade. Galesburg Fire Department currently utilizes a
2007 Aerial Truck at Central Fire Station, and it is nearing the end of its useful life. The purchase
of new pumper apparatus will allow the aerial unit to be placed in reserve status which will
greatly extend its useful life. The cost to replace an aerial unit is nearly two million dollars.
Therefore, the Fire Department evaluated the front-line units and determined a new pumper
apparatus would better suit the department's needs when responding to the increasing amount
of calls each year. The unit being traded is a 2011 Spartan Pumper and has served its useful life
as a front-line apparatus and is in need of replacement. One bid was received from Alexis Fire
Equipment in the amount of $652,917 and offered a $30,000 trade-in value for the 2011 Spartan
Pumper. The new unit will require approximately 425 calendar days to complete from the receipt
of order. There are funds available in the Vehicle Replacement Fund (58) for this purchase.
CITY MANAGER'S REPORT
MISCELLANEOUS BUSINESS (Agreements, Approvals, Etc.)
Item 23-4051 Minority/Woman owned Business Startup Assistance for MOD Esthetics, LLC
The KCAP Review Committee recommends approval of a $5,000 Startup Assistance grant for
MOD Esthetics, LLC. Staff concur with this recommendation. MOD Esthetics, LLC will be located
at 64 S Prairie Street, Suite 7. The business will offer permanent makeup, also known as cosmetic
tattooing. Per the Minority/Women owned Startup Assistance Program guidelines, a self-
employed person is eligible to receive $5,000 plus $2,500 per full-time employee created, up to
a maximum of $10,000. This request is eligible for $5,000.
Item 23-4052 Minority/Woman owned Business Startup Assistance for Get Sum Ink, LLC
The KCAP Review Committee recommends the approval of a $5,000 Startup Assistance grant for
Get Sum Ink LLC. Staff concur with this recommendation. Get Sum Ink LLC will be located at 430
N Henderson Street, Suite A and will offertattoos as the primary service and piercings on a limited
basis. Per the Minority/Women owned Startup Assistance Program guidelines, a self-employed
person is eligible to receive $5,000 plus $2,500 per full-time employee created, up to a maximum
of $10,000. This request is eligible for $5,000.
Item 23-4053 Minority/Woman owned Business Startup Assistance for Greenlords Pharms, LLC
The KCAP Review Committee recommends the approval of a $10,000 Startup Assistance grant
Greenlords Pharms LLC. Staff concur with this recommendation. Greenlords Pharms LLC will be
located at 1367 Monmouth Blvd and will begin processing organic hemp CBD oil into vaporizer
cartridges. The owner is already a licensed hemp grower and has identified a retail sales channel
Page 5 of 6
Back to Agenda
for these products in Florida via a partnership with a chain of CDB stores. Per the
Minority/Women owned Startup Assistance Program guidelines, a self-employed person is
eligible to receive $5,000 plus $2,500 per full-time employee created, up to a maximum of
$10,000. It is anticipated there will be three full-time and three part-time positions by the end of
year two. This request is eligible for $10,000.
Item 23-4054 Accepting dedication of right-of-way for property located on Farnham Street
Staff recommends approval of a plat of dedication of right -of way for a property on Farnham
Street. The City was contacted by an adjacent property owner about purchasing a City -owned
property on N. Farnham Street. Currently, the parcel is split by Farnham Street, and the property
owner wishes to purchase the portion of the parcel on the south side of the street only. To sell
this portion of the property, it needed to be split into two tracts. The portion of the parcel north
of Farnham Street is unusable for building on, so it will be dedicated as right-of-way along with
the portion of city sidewalk that is currently on the City -owned lot. City staff recommends
approval of the dedication of the right-of-way so that future improvements can be made on the
public infrastructure. If approved, the City will proceed with selling the tract south of Farnham
Street to the adjacent property owner.

Galesburg City Council Special Meeting
City Council Chambers
55 West Tompkins Street, Galesburg, Illinois
May 15, 2023
5:00 p.m.
Called to order by Mayor Peter Schwartzman at 5:00 p.m.
Roll Call #1: Present: Mayor Peter Schwartzman, Council Members Bradley Hix, Wayne Dennis,
Evan Miller, Dwight White, Heather Acerra, and Steve Cheesman, 7. Absent: Council Member
Sarah Davis, 1. Also Present: City Manager Gerald C. Smith, Interim City Attorney Paul Mangieri,
and City Clerk Kelli Bennewitz.
Mayor Schwartzman assured the public that they would have the opportunity to speak and
asked everyone to respect each other's civil liberties and to be respectful.
Paul Mangieri, Interim City Attorney, outlined for the Council and for the public that his firm as
city counsel has provided notice that they will be concluding their contract with the City.
However, they will continue to serve as interim city attorneys until such time as a replacement
can be appointed or hired.
He noted that the item on the agenda "discussion and potential action to approve an ordinance
authorizing the City Council to retain Independent Legislative Counsel," is not related to his
firm's position with the City but instead is counsel that would solely represent the City Council's
interests. It is his understanding that this will be something discussed this evening. Mr.
Mangieri introduced Keri-Lyn Krafthefer, who is an expert in that particular area relative to
legislative counsel.
Interim City Attorney Mangieri announced that the next item on the agenda is a closed session
for the purposes of discussing "the appointment, employment, compensation, discipline,
performance or dismissal of specific employees of the public body." He noted that in this case
the specific employee was the City Manager, Gerald Smith. He further stated that this session
would give Mr. Smith the opportunity to address any concerns and is entitled to fairness and to
have any questions presented to him outside a public forum.
The Interim City Attorney then stated that after these items, and once public comment is
completed, there will be an adjournment of the Special Meeting, and then the City of Galesburg
would then transition into the regular meeting that was scheduled for 5:30 p.m.
Council Member Davis entered the meeting at 5:06 p.m.
A motion was made by Council Member Acerra, seconded by Council Member Dennis, to
remove agenda item #6 (Discussion and potential action related to the appointment,
employment or removal of the City Manager).
Roll Call #2:

Back to Agenda
Ayes: Trustees Hix, Dennis, Miller, Acerra, Davis, and Cheesman, 6.
Nays: None
Absent: None
Abstain: Council Member White, 1.
Chairman declared the motion carried.
Mayor Schwartzman announced that given the number of people that have attended tonight as
the presiding officer, he would be moving the public comment portion of the meeting to this
moment.
Jim Jacobs addressed the Council and stated that Gerald Smith was selected to be the Galesburg
City Manager after a nationwide recruitment and selection process. He was chosen among 32
applicants and came to Galesburg having excellent credentials and wide experience serving
both large municipalities such as Kansas City, Missouri, where he was Director of General
Services and smaller towns where he was the city manager. He further stated that Mr. Smith has
over 35 years of experience working in public administration and has earned a master's degree
in public administration from Northern Illinois University, as well as a bachelor of arts and urban
history and political science from Elmhurst College. Furthermore, he is a credentialed manager
and is certified in diversity, equity and inclusion in the workplace.
Mr. Jacobs stated that in spite of Mr. Smith's qualifications, Council Member Hix, Dennis, and
former Council Cox, voted against Mr. Smith's appointment as City Manager and stated they had
concerns with the salary. Mr. Cox said that it was too costly for the City and the other two
Council Members stated he was starting out too close to what the previous city manager was
paid a month. He maintained that those were smokescreen arguments. He stated that the City
determined that the most efficient way to operate Galesburg was with the council manager
form of government. Likewise, he stated that the arguments for voting against him were
specious. Mr. Jacobs added that with Mr. Smith's 25 years of experience in his resume, a
reasonable citizen would expect Mr. Smith would receive close to if not more than the previous
city manager.
Mr. Jacobs stated that he has lived in Galesburg 73 years and that our city is not unlike cities
throughout the country and that we have a deep racist past and an active racist present that
permeates our institutions including city government. Evidence of that is the recent case of city
employee Lisa Wilson. In February 2019, a jury ruled in favor of Ms. Wilson and gave her a six
figure award, finding that she was discriminated against on the basis of her race. He asked that
if the person involved with the Wilson case was hired by previous city manager Thompson, why
didn't the Council at that time seek to fire him because of poor judgment and his hiring of the
other employee. He believes this is a question that is pertinent to where we are today and why
these Council Members are so eager to dismiss Mr. Smith, when he hasn't even been here a
year when no action was taken on this incident. He stated that evidence of the racism in the
City can be seen by looking around at the lack of faces of color in our workforce and the City
Council.
Elvira Hunnigan addressed the Council and stated that she has worked in healthcare in the
community for almost 50 years and is a retired RN, having worked at Galesburg Cottage
May 15, 2023 Page 2 of 19
Back to Agenda
Hospital. She and her husband, Wendell, sponsor a scholarship at Carl Sandburg College for
minority students. She stated that her reason for addressing the City Council tonight is that she
wants to ask that they vote no on dismissing the City Manager, Mr. Gerald Smith. She stated
that the vote on his potential firing has the appearance of being racially motivated and that
there is a consensus in the black community that Mr. Smith is highly qualified. At the meetings
she has attended, he has been on point when directly questioned by Council Members and
believes it is reasonable for one to infer that he was not given a chance because he is black. Ms.
Hunnigan stated that this smacks of Jim Crow and that Mr. Smith has worked in public
administration for over 25 years and is qualified. She stated that when Mr. Smith was hired, it
was in the newspaper that he managed budgets from $5 million to approximately $100 million.
He served communities ranging in size from 5,000 to over 400,000 and would bring expertise in
municipal management, economic development, capital infrastructure, planning and
operational sustainability. She again asked them to vote no on dismissing Mr. Smith.
Rodney Bunch addressed the Council and stated that he feels Mr. Smith is doing an excellent job
and that there has been nothing in the media stating that he's been or has done a poor job. He
doesn't feel that the new members should have an opportunity to say anything about Mr Smith
or vote against him, or try to get him released from his position because they have not even
worked with the man.
Pam Davidson addressed the Council and stated she was speaking for the NAACP, Branch 3016.
She is truly sad for what is going on in Galesburg and that there have been numerous cases
before previous city managers about discrimination and bigotry. She noted that as the
President and as the only speaker of the NAACP, they will be doing an investigation on why this
is even occurring, of the removal of the City Manager after the last City Manager lost Galesburg
several thousands of dollars for cases of discrimination that were won against the city. She
added that they cannot, and we will not stand for it.
Jerry Ryberg addressed the Council and stated that it was his understanding that City Manager
Gerald Smith is doing an excellent job and therefore should stay in the position. He noted that
there is a problem that some of the Council Members have and that is that the people know
what they're thinking and that they don't like diversity. He urged them to keep in mind honesty,
ethics, and democracy. And if you say you believe in God, then act as a Christian.
Conrad Hamilton addressed the Council and stated that he has lived in Galesburg for 30 years.
He has heard a lot of rumors on social media and other places that the City Council is planning
to seek a vote to terminate the contract of the City Manager. He stated that a number of people
are saying that this has nothing to do actually with Mr. Smith's performance, but it is instead
based upon the ideology of a few Council Members, and perhaps personal animosity towards
the Mayor. Mr. Hamilton commented that if some Council Members have a problem with the
Mayor then they ought to be forthright enough to state their reasons publicly and not take a
dishonorable path of trying to deprive a public servant of his livelihood. Second, as someone
who has been on numerous search committees in this community, he pointed out how difficult
it is to hire qualified professionals and bring them to Galesburg. He added that it would be
difficult to find someone with Mr. Smith's qualifications and convince them to become
May 15, 2023 Page 3 of 19
Back to Agenda
Galesburg's new City Manager after the previous manager was fired without cause after less
than a year.
Mr. Conrad stated that he believes some on the City Council would have the City pay for two
searches within one year and feels that anyone who is advocating for this should be upfront,
especially about the cost. He expressed that Galesburg voters expect their elected officials to
solve problems, not make new ones.
Bernie Cowan addressed the Council and stated that he was retired from the Galesburg Fire
Department and moved back to Galesburg in 2019. He stated that it is not a pleasing sight that
some Council Members are trying to dismiss the City Manager and asked for everyone to do a
little soul-searching. He added that the voters run the City and that Council Members don't
make decisions and hopes that citizens start getting involved. He hopes that citizens get
involved in the next election and that people get out and vote. He stated that of the four
Council Members, one of them is a puppet taking orders.
Carl Dortch addressed the Council and stated that he was present to talk about the youth. He
noted that he does not care where a youth center would be located but that one just needs to
be opened. Mr. Dortch stated that he was motivated to write a speech because while leaving
the last City Council meeting someone called him young and unintelligent about politics. His
speech was titled Young, Unintelligent, and Poor and isn't necessarily only his perspective but
other youth as well.
David Amor addressed the Council and stated that his original intention was to speak at the
regular City Council meeting. He stated that he wanted to point out that those who are
disappointed with the election results need to recognize that reality has changed. That the
election, despite the unfair and inflammatory campaign materials from some candidates, was in
fact a free and fair election. He noted that the people both by voting and by staying home, have
effectively spoken. His intention was also to call on all parties to show restraint, to focus on
policies and not on personal attacks, and to proceed in a way that would heal rather than
exacerbate divisions, all in the best interest of the City.
Mr. Amor stated that putting the item regarding the City Manager on the agenda for a special
meeting suggests to him that there probably is no more middle ground and that the Council
seems dominated by an organized faction dedicated to a take a "no prisoners" strategy to push
forward its agenda. He stated that he recognizes that some Council Members are ready to take
unjustified and hurtful actions that will damage the City, potentially for decades. By considering
the termination of the new City Manager, with only the flimsiest of rationales, he feels it is
deeply irresponsible and will polarize our community. He further stated that it will bring the
City, and the Council specifically, into disrepute for firing the first ever black City Manager on
insufficient charges. He added that if there is a problem, Council should review him in a regular
process. He stated that he is deeply disappointed that it has come to this point, and it seems to
him that he sees both vindictiveness and a disregard for the best interests of the City in these
actions.

Mr. Amor continued by stating that he agrees with the movement to move public comment on
the agenda, before actions are taken by the City Council. He thinks that will yield more useful
comments. He recognizes that unfortunately the Churchill as the site for a community center is
now doomed but urged some amendments to the item that is on the agenda tonight regarding
the sale. He proposed that any development plan submitted should include some provision for
a percentage of low income housing and instead of specifying that funds go into a foreclosure
fund, he implored the Council to direct the proceeds to a more open-ended fund, so that they
could be used towards a community center.
Mr. Amor also stated that he agrees that the lease for The Depot should be regularized, but
urged Council to recognize the good work being done there and to make the rent nominal. As
for the discussion on public comment, he stated that if the start time is moved to 6 pm, he
would support moving public comment earlier in the agenda. This would allow the public to
address action items before they are acted upon. He urged the Council to defeat items or
amend them to preserve the open and democratic character of the Council meetings.
Pastor Vince Marolla addressed the Council and stated that he is ordained into the ministry of
word and sacrament in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. He has tried to serve
faithfully for over 30 years and is here tonight because pastors in his denomination are expected
to serve in this way, according to our governing documents. He stated that every Minister of
Word and Sacrament shall speak publicly to the world in solidarity with the poor and oppressed,
advocating dignity, justice and equity for all people, working for peace and reconciliation among
the nations caring for the marginalized and embracing and welcoming, racially and ethnically
diverse populations. Pastor Marolla noted that in the Gospel of Matthew, Jesus commands
people to feed the hungry, to provide water to the thirsty, and to provide shelter to the
homeless.
He added that in the past, he has spoken about a community center that he believes would
benefit the entire community and provide resources for those living beneath the federal
poverty level. He feels that there are those sitting in the meeting tonight who are doing
everything in their power to stop it but are the same people who were willing to put millions of
dollars into a subdivision of $300,000 homes that would benefit the wealthy. He further stated
that two weeks ago, a group of Council Members pulled an item from the consent agenda and
terminated the contract of the Interim Director of Public Works without any prior notification to
the Mayor and others. The net effect of doing that was that without a Public Works Director,
the City Manager has to work harder to do his job. He has to work harder to serve the City and
people living in the areas of poverty, crumbling infrastructure, and who no longer have an
advocate or somebody to take care of them. He believes this is all about race.
Pastor Marolla stated that the meeting tonight, regarding the City Manager, is another example
of a lack of showing dignity and justice for a City employee. He feels that Council Members
called this meeting late on a Friday afternoon, the Mayor was not informed beforehand, which
shows a complete lack of respect. He added that they may not respect Peter Schwartzman, but
they need to respect the office of the Mayor, and as elected officials, work in an upfront and
transparent way. He feels that Mr. Smith has worked very hard to get the education and
experience to serve as a Galesburg City Manager and has shared the many obstacles that have
May 15, 2023 Page 5 of 19
Back to Agenda
strengthened him on his journey to Galesburg. Racist social media posts have been attributed to
Council Members, who have denied making them. The same Council Members have used arrest
records, not convictions, of black candidates and are stating that this is not racist. He stated
that prior actions and words speak volumes about present motivations, and he encouraged the
citizens of Galesburg to connect the dots.
Darla Krejci addressed the Council and stated she planned to talk about diversity and how it's a
good thing and that coming from a nature background, diversity in nature is essential. She
stated that she also comes from the nonprofit world and in grant writing, there always seems to
be a topic that changes. When she first started writing grants, collaboration was the focus, and
then it became ADA compliant. She stated that currently, the hot topic is diversity and
inclusion, and that you have to prove that you are diverse within your organization and are
serving a diverse community. According to Forbes magazine, a team made up of people of
different ages, genders, ethnicities, sexual orientation, cultural backgrounds, and education
levels is a good thing. She added that this article is talking about companies and the workforce,
but it applies to a City Council or City government. The article stated that not only is diversity
crucial for creativity, and social justice, but research shows that a diverse workplace is good for
the bottom line. Companies with a diverse workforce are 35% more likely to experience greater
financial returns than their respective non -diverse counterparts. A team that has a variety of
worldview perspectives, can educate employees and clients and reach untapped customer
demographics. She feels that Gerald Smith represents this kind of diversity with his background,
experience, different worldview, and his skin color, which is an asset to this City.
Dillon Haptonstahl addressed the Council and stated that after attending the last meeting and
seeing the agenda for this meeting, he decided to speak up for the first time. He stated that
when he first started coming to City Council meetings, he was thrilled to see how much people
cared about this community, especially the poor and less privileged members of society. He was
excited about a community center and how it could develop skills, hobbies, passions, and a
sense of purpose, worth and cultivate connection in the community. He dreamed of a version of
Galesburg where people of all ages, backgrounds and financial statuses could come together as
equals, sharing a welcoming atmosphere. He stated that now it seems like the majority of the
Council Members don't care about anything he cares about and feels that the decisions they are
making will not benefit those who need the help the most. Mr. Haptonstahl stated that it looks
like most meetings will involve a quick and predictable vote by the majority and that they want
to take away the voice of those who disagree by making it complicated, confusing and
intimidating to step up to the podium and say what is on their minds.
Julie Jordan Brandt addressed the Council and stated that she knows many of the Council
Members. She just moved to Galesburg and was excited about this community, and now she
has doubts. She is disappointed in this group and is disappointed that a man with such
qualifications is going to be railroaded because a few people might not like the color of his skin.
She stated that she originally came to speak on behalf of the Galesburg Depot, and stated some
statistics on the race demographics of Galesburg. She added that she has read numerous posts
of what might occur at this meeting, and she is disappointed. She has represented the
Galesburg Downtown Depot in a capacity of a volunteer for over two and a half years in the
middle of the pandemic. The Depot has served our community for two and a half years by giving
May 15, 2023 Page 6 of 19

their own money and hopes the City Council will support the goodwill that people are doing in
our community.
Izzy Scott, a senior at Knox College, addressed the Council. She stated that she is not allowed to
vote, but thinks Galesburg is a good city and has considered it a second home for four years.
She stated that she was ashamed that she hasn't been paying attention during her time here
when she really should have been. She has seen the care that people have for the City by how
many people have shown up tonight to speak against what she considers to be an egregious act
by some members of the City Council. She added that she is worried about what this motion to
fire the City Manager means for the City's future, especially in the context of other business
proposed by the same members of the Council. She feels that Mr. Smith is a qualified man and
has only been here for eight months. She noted that this new Council met for the first time on
May 1st, two weeks ago, and now plans to fire a man who's been here for eight months. She
stated that she feels City Manager Smith deserves better than what has been given to him and
that the people of Galesburg deserve better than what they are being given as well.
Jackie Turner addressed the Council and stated that this was the first time after 40 years in
Galesburg that she has ever had to address the City Council, but this is just too important.
Diversity, equity and inclusion refers to organizational frameworks that seek to promote the fair
treatment and full participation of all people, particularly groups who have historically been
underrepresented, or subjects to discriminate on the basis of identity or disability. She asked if
the Council has asked their constituents what their concerns are and to whose best interests are
they working for. She wondered how they know what's best for the community if they haven't
spoken to anybody. She stated that her concern is that they only speak to people with like
minds.
Cathy Wagoner addressed the Council and stated that she was pleased to have this moment to
represent a different group of people. She added that she is not from the City of Galesburg, but
has been associated with the city for 40 years and lives between Aledo and Alexis. She asked the
Council to please consider those of who do not have a vote. She still does all her shopping in
Galesburg, goes to Lake Storey, and has relatives who live in Galesburg. She taught at both Knox
College and Carl Sandburg College through the years. She doesn't feel that the Council has taken
into consideration the rural people who come to Galesburg and have economic impact.
Ms Wagoner stated that she loves Galesburg and used to sell Galesburg to families when she
recruited for Knox College. One of the great recruiting points is that they would feel safe, feel
welcome, and that it is a very inclusive city. She stated that she wants Galesburg to be that
welcoming place and asked the Council to be less myopic and a little more broad-minded about
people on the outside that are affected by the choices that are made today.
Michelle Smith addressed the Council and stated that her and her husband love Galesburg and
are former residents, both having worked in this community. They have also served on various
community groups and spent and continue to spend much of their income in the community.
She stated that her last job in Galesburg was serving as the Marketing Communications
Coordinator for the local economic development entity. They love Galesburg, not just because
May 15, 2023 Page 7 of 19
Back to Agenda
of the great people who reside here, but also because it has also been known to be a very
progressive, innovative and solid community.
Ms. Smith stated that she stands before the Council because she is concerned that our newest
City Council Members are sabotaging and destroying years of progress and positive growth
because of their own personal agendas. Never in her years of serving as a local journalist, and as
an economic development person, has she seen such an effort by newly elected officials to
counteract the positive growth in the community. She has observed, in the last 15 days,
qualified individuals lose their jobs, efforts have been squelched, and an obvious resistance to
support the good that has been accomplished by the previous Council has been in the forefront
of these newly elected officials, as evidenced by their recent words, comments and actions.
She stated that she has heard nothing but good things about Mr. Smith, and hopes they realize
they're making a huge mistake if they move forward. She asked the new members why they
were trying to squelch citizens from having their freedom of speech by planning the meetings a
half hour later, moving public comments to earlier in the meeting, reducing the number of time
a person can speak to two minutes, and requesting all speakers to sign in and state their topic,
and limiting closing comments by Council Member to two minutes. She feels that these efforts
are in place to give Galesburg residents an opportunity to voice their opinion. The first
amendment rights ensure that there is free and open discussion, which is what makes our
democracy strong. Repression of speech is not consistent with the American ideals and
practices.
Ms. Smith stated that Galesburg has become known as a fair community focused on human
diversity, as well as biodiversity, and sustainability, yet several new members seem to be very
verbal in their effort to squelch this effort. By serving on a City Council, members are expected
to represent the body of people they represent in their respective wards and not take
advantage of their position to further their own personal agenda. Each Council Member, when
they take their oath of office, swears to support this constitution of the US and the Constitution
of the State of Illinois and faithfully discharge the duties of the office of City Council Member to
the best of their ability. Those duties include representing the people they serve in Galesburg.
She further stated that the City Council requested a special meeting to approve an ordinance
authorizing the City Council to retain independent legal counsel and discuss potential action
related to the appointment, employment or removal of the city manager and current city legal
counsel. Neither of these issues were brought to the attention of Mayor Schwartzman.
She added that she is shocked that the newest Council Members, being in office only two
weeks, would sneak behind the backs of the current Mayor and two seasoned Council Members
in an effort to undermine the current City Manager, who sounds like he is doing a great job. She
closed by stating that the people of Galesburg have voted for them to serve their wards because
they believed in them and that they would work in an ethical and professional manner to help
better the wards in which they live. Apparently they have misled them into believing this
because they have already used the power of their newly elected positions to promote their
own personal agendas.

Carol Erickson addressed the Council and stated that she has never spoken at a City Council
meeting before because she was scared, but what scares her even more is the thought that the
powers that be in this current Council would limit their ability to speak. Not only would their
time be limited, but they would fear that they could be interrupted as they saw happen to a
speaker at the last Council meeting. She stated that her uncle was a City Council Member for
many years, as was his father before him, and they were both very much respected by the
people because they truly served the people and helped those in need. She grew up and into
adulthood, believing that all Council Members were as sincere and caring as her uncle and
grandfather, but that is no longer the case. She thanked the Mayor, the City Manager, City
Attorney, and the Interim Public Works Director, Council Members and everyone else who has
worked against great odds to make Galesburg a better place to live for all of its residents. Ms.
Erickson stated that like many others, she also has a dream. It is her desire that one day, there
will be a true sense of community in Galesburg, that all the people will cooperate for the
greater good of everyone, that no one will be denied basic rights to food, shelter, clothing,
warmth, and love. Her dream is that the City will operate out of a sense of unity, because they
truly care about people.
Valerie Rakers addressed the Council and stated that she voted for Council Member Acerra and
that if the vote happened again, she would change that vote. She stated that the reason she
voted for her was that when she asked her family, who has been in the City for over 40 years,
they told her that they knew her from the Knights of Columbus, she comes from a good family,
she's a daughter, and she's a good person. She added that she was not seeing that right now.
Ms. Rakers stated that she works for the county and assists people with homeowner
exemptions and helps the disabled, and the low income. When she started her job, there was
no supervisor of assessments, so she understands what it's like to work within a county or local
government with no oversight. When you leave voids in management, things fall apart, jobs
don't get done, and statutes get violated. She encouraged the Council to not just go firing
people and that jobs and people are important. Keeping good people in City positions is a lot
harder than they think. She encouraged them to not fire the City Manager, who has not done
anything to deserve it.
Reverend Andrew Jowers addressed the Council and stated that he is the pastor of Greater
Heights Worship Center. He reminded the Council that they started the meeting with the
Pledge of Allegiance to the flag where everyone stood, put their hand over their heart and said
the pledge with the closing words "with liberty and justice for all." He is concerned that not all
mean these words and that if he were to look around the city, there is a void in liberty and
justice. There are no signs posted in the front of stores that say he has to use the back door. He
can come to this podium as an African American male and speak, which is progress. He stated
that he was present to speak on behalf of the needs of the poor and the needy in our
community. He is doing this because he has been poor, but he received an education that gave
him a lift. He can say he is not poor today and that he has a college education.
Reverend Jowers stated that if the Council were to listen to the ones that have come to this
podium tonight, they would be inclined to go with the majority because that's what everyone
says - they believe in majority rule. He asked the Council to vote no against a great rollback on
May 15, 2023 Page 9 of 19
Back to Agenda
everything that was voted on by the last City Council, approved by the last Council, and debated
in work sessions. He stated that he can vote today because there has been progress. Black
people were not allowed to vote in this country, they were slaves, even though they invented a
majority of the things that people see and take for granted today. But because they were slaves,
they could not get the credit, and does not get the credit for it today.
Reverend Jowers added that these things are promised - life, liberty and pursuit of happiness.
All of which was promised in the Constitution of the United States. He saw everyone raise their
right hands, promise to obey the Constitution of the United States, the Constitution of the State
of Illinois, and obey the ordinances of the City of Galesburg and pledge to fulfill their duty as a
Council Member to the best of their ability. During this time, racist comments were interjected
in the last election, and things were done that were unethical. He urged them to vote no for the
termination of the recently hired City Manager. He believes this is just the beginning and that he
plans to rally the citizens of this city to get involved, those thousands who did not vote are going
to show up.
Tom Malik addressed the Council and stated that if had a chance to vote for Council Member
Acerra, he would. He added that all he has heard at this meeting is that there should be some
civility. He doesn't understand why everyone has to call people racist and thinks that we are one
of the least racist countries on the planet. He stated that when he was in the Vietnam War, he
was a cryptographic technician and dealt with people from the CIA, NSA and other
organizations. Later, he worked full time in the Department of Environmental Protection as a
first responder qualified to the specialist class. He stated that what he saw after the fall of the
Soviet Union, was a man named Gorbachev who went to the Green Party, and it appears that
Galesburg is now the local home of communists and extreme left socialists.
Mr. Malik read a quote from a book written by mayor Peter Schwartzman and David
Schwartzman. He noted that it was published in 2019, and is called The Earth Is NotforSale: A
Path Out of Fossil Capitalism to the Other World That is Still Possible. He stated that in terms of
the City Manager, he believes that this Council should look at the performance, and if he's
performing good, keep him. If he isn't performing or doesn't meet the qualifications or
standards, then that's another story, and he probably shouldn't stay. He feels this is the way it
should be with any employee.
Noelle Thompson addressed the Council and stated the views she wanted to share are her own
and do not in any way represent the organizations or institutions with which she is affiliated.
Two weeks ago, the Council seemingly abruptly terminated the contract with the interim public
works director stating that the compensation was too high. Three days ago, the Council
announced the seemingly abrupt plan to consider the termination of the City Manager. Mr.
Smith's contract was approved on September 26th, and at that time, those who voiced their
disapproval stated that they felt his compensation was too high. The sudden dismissal or
consideration of dismissal of probably the two most impactful positions in the City, and the
recurring complaint about salaries and benefits sends a message to the rest of the City
employees that the Council does not care about them. She stressed that she wanted the Council
to be aware of the impact and the impression that they are giving by these decisions. She knows
May 15, 2023 Page 10 of 19
Back to Agenda
that each of them understand how essential City workers are to the health, growth and success
of our community but that their actions say otherwise.
Ms. Thompson stated that their actions indicate that City workers are expendable and that the
labor, education and expertise of City workers are not worth fair compensation. She
understands and appreciates fiscal responsibility, but if there's one area where they should not
be cutting corners, if there's one area worth the investment, it's in the people. City employees
make Galesburg function, they make it safe for her to drive to work, play at the park, and drink
from her sink. On top of the work they do for all of us, they are part of our community, they
build their lives here and raise their children here. Please do not treat City employees as if they
are easily expendable and do not devalue the work they do for us every day.
Ms. Thompson stated they have a responsibility to attract and retain skilled, competent,
experienced employees and to support them so they can continue to strengthen our city and
our community. She closed by saying that she is rooting for them each to succeed but she gets
the impression that at times they are rooting for the people beside them to fail. If that is their
hope, that is what will happen in the community too. No one understands the stress they are
under or the sacrifices they make to serve on the Council except for the people beside you. She
implored them to set an example for our community by rooting for each other and supporting
each other.
Dominic Venmus addressed the Council and stated his appreciation for the opportunity to
speak. He thinks we can all agree that the essential right is the right to freedom of speech. He is
grateful that everybody's had a chance to say something here tonight but that our freedoms
don't give people the right to do what we want. They give us the right to do what we ought to
do, which is to be respectful of others opinions, their time, and that people should be respectful
when speaking on the relevant topic. He has heard it said that that personal attack is the last
refuge of a last argument and the attacks that are occurring here tonight, particularly, the
accusations of racism are unjust. He has been in business for over 40 years, and most of those
years have been in a position of leadership. He added that personnel decisions are always the
most gut -wrenching and difficult decisions. He stated that he suspected that every one of the
Council Members feels the same way about the personnel decisions that they're entrusted to
make. He encouraged the Mayor to work hard to create an environment in which discussion is
based upon the intellectual and rhetorical rigor, not the volume of the voice or the
grandstanding. The Council Members are charged with making serious decisions and we need to
support them with serious intellectual rhetoric and keep our statements to the point and short.
Jacqueline Donaldson addressed the Council as a resident and voter in Galesburg. She is
disappointed by all the news that she is hearing with the Downtown Depot, a group that has
really helped her family. She is a single mother of three kids and it is hard for her since there are
no resources past 5 p.m. and the best place that has opened for her family is Downtown Depot.
She is also a full time student who is going back to school to get her bachelor's degree and she
works as a housekeeper. The Downtown Depot has been a lifesaver for her family. She has also
had the opportunity to help other families with coats and food herself.
May 15, 2023 Page 11 of 19
Back to Agenda
Ms. Donaldson stated that she knows she's not the only one that has somebody in their family
who doesn't have the money or the means to get a meal and she feels that people don't realize
how many homeless people we have in this town that look to the Depot to get a meal on
Monday.
Stephanie Grimes addressed the Council and stated that she is a lifelong resident of Galesburg.
Her father, who went to Galesburg High School when it was located in this area, couldn't play
baseball because the coach decided that his skin was too brown for him to be playing with the
others. Her father, who lived and worked in this city, ran for election to the Council in the 1960s
and was elected. He served faithfully with people such as Monte Gifford, Curt Erickson, Dwight
Gooden, Rollie Paulsgrove, and others. She stated that when they had disagreements, they
were able to go and take those disagreements and talk with each other, not in a way where
things are put on agendas and not in a way that was disrespectful.
Ms. Grimes added that when she was a young teenager growing into adulthood, her father told
her that the people who work for the City have to work ethically, honestly, and have to work for
the people and for the good of the people. She stated that when she met Mr. Smith, she told
him that her father would have rejoiced to see this day, and he would rejoice to see a City
Manager of color. She asserted that he is not only a City manager of color, but a manager who's
qualified to serve the City of Galesburg. She implored the Council to please do the honorable
things, the ethical things, and do right by this City Manager who is well qualified to serve in the
position. Please make sure those serious decisions are made for the right reasons and for the
benefit of the city -- the citizens of Galesburg.
Angie Peterson addressed the City Manager and stated that she is not familiar with his work,
but just based on what she has heard around town, he is great. Prior to him being put into
office, she learned about his family history on slavery. She advised that she is Council Member
Acerra's ward and is a true blue, union Democrat, and has been all of her life. She voted for her
because her predecessor, who was more along her political viewpoint, was ineffective. She read
a quote on a website about Council Member Acerra's comment about how efficient it would be
to change the public speaking time from five minutes to two minutes. Ms. Peterson stated that
what is suggested nationally is a three -minute public session and a three -minute rebuttal. So it's
basically an equal opportunity.
Council Member Acerra stated that she had suggested this discussion happen in a Council Work
Session but instead it appeared on a City Council agenda. She had suggested two minutes
knowing and expecting that there would be debate about the topic. She noted that the Mayor
has suggested the time starting later since it could be more convenient for people to make it
later. She wanted to make it clear that the Council fully expected ideas from the public and
assumed there would be a Work session.
Council Member White left the meeting at 6:41 p.m.
Ms. Peterson stated that she understood everything Council Member Acerra was saying, but
what the article stated was that it was for efficiency purposes, and based on the United States
Constitution, what the Council is attempting is impeding their ability to speak. She added that it
May 15, 2023 Page 12 of 19
Back to Agenda
is a violation of their constitutional right to try to suppress their voices. She added that she lives
a block away from Council Member Acerra's business and that there is an abandoned vehicle on
the street that has been there for almost four weeks. She closed by saying that this is all
Draconian and ridiculous. If they really think the people of Galesburg are going to stand down,
the Council is wrong and they will have a fight.
Bruce Weik addressed the Council and stated that he is proud of the Ward Six Council Member
who is the youngest person ever to get on the board. That Ward did good, but unfortunately,
some other Wards didn't do so good and the community has ended up with a majority of right
wing Republicans and he is not overly impressed.
Mr. Weik stated that somehow, the community needs to confront these Council Members and
end their reign of terror sooner rather than later. He suggested they all move to Oquawka and
that he can arrange for the house. God is on their side and these people are evil -- they have evil
in their hearts. This Council wants to stop a building that's going to house our youth and our
seniors. He added that they aren't going to quit and they are going to win Galesburg back with
every ounce of strength that they have. He stated that there are approximately seven to 10
complaints to the State's Attorney, one of which will occur from this special meeting. There are
numerous other places where people have filed things regarding the Council not following the
law. He stated that they text one another, talk to one another in groups and they know that's
not legal and they aren't about to stop. He stated that they are coming after you are going to
put them in your place come hell or high water, he guaranteed it. Mr. Weik stated that
everybody here, and in their heart, knows that they are on the right side.
Council Member White returned to the meeting at 6:44 p.m.
He added that if they fire Mr. Smith, almost all of those present will support him. They will
support him any way they can, and if he should file a suit, the white people will help him.
Demarkus Medley addressed the Council and stated that he has been a resident of Galesburg
for the past 20 years. He wanted to read a definition of equality versus equity. Equality means
each individual group of people was given the same resources or opportunities. Equity
recognizes that each person has different circumstances and allocates the resources and
opportunities needed to reach an equal outcome. He feels that the Mayor has provided more
equity for those who needed it during his tenure. He added that as a black man, black women,
women of all colors, and any minority, the Mayor understood that they needed equity in order
to catch up for the years of discrimination and racism that they have faced in America.
He congratulated Mr. Smith for being the first black city manager of Galesburg, which is quite an
accomplishment in 2023. Black people are still having firsts, which is very unfortunate. Mr.
Smith will inspire more black youth to understand that they can reach goals, that they can sit
there, they don't have to walk past a hall of all white men that sit in those positions, and think
that they can't be there. He understands that the Council Members have already decided what
they want to do but he wanted to make it clear for those who didn't vote in this last election,
they have to understand the consequences. If they don't feel like they are being represented it
is because they did not vote.
May 15, 2023 Page 13 of 19
Back to Agenda
He further stated that Mayor Schwartzman and his team have created minority grants for black
people and for any minority to start businesses. He cannot think of another place in this country
that has done that and is bringing equity to Galesburg. He hopes everyone can all work together
and try to bring equity, not equality, because we need equity in order to be equal.
Collin Sevigny addressed the Council and stated that he has lived in Galesburg most of his life
except that he has spent the last 12 years serving in the National Guard for the State of Illinois.
He added that he has been on flood duty, on blizzard relief and as somebody who has served
the people of our country, the thought that the Council wants to take the five minutes for
speakers and cut it down drastically is not something that he signed up for to watch happen in
his own community.
Mr. Sevigny expressed that a man transplanted his entire life to come to Galesburg to be the
City Manager and to hear that the Council wants to throw him out because he's making only
slightly less than the guy who had tenure, when inflation is at an all-time high, baffles him.
Comments have been made from a person who has been asked to be held accountable by the
LGBTQ for his remarks and then during the last election, put his opponent's arrest record out
into the public, and a pamphlet two days before the election and was chastised in the
newspapers. It disturbs him that this is still happening and that this is happening in his
community. He stated that he did not give 12 years of his life to Illinois and remain in Galesburg
to watch that type of discrimination and that type of repression happen.
Kyle Rohweder addressed the Council and stated that he was a former altar boy of St Aloysius.
He stated that he doesn't buy into this whole us versus them philosophy and politics, and finds
this kind of behavior to be especially abhorrent at local levels, because nobody really wins
unless everyone wins. There are several members of this new City Council that are making him
scratch his head, however, and he is not all convinced that any of their motives are actually
rooted in any pure altruistic ideologies, or that they're even exhibiting reactionary behaviors
based in reality. He noted that it is an interesting conspiracy that Dr. Schwartzman, his friend of
15 years, is some kind of Russian plant, or that he's some kind of communist Avenger.
Mr. Rohweder stated that he appreciates the perspective and wisdom of folks with experience
and admires those who have worked hard and earned success. He is not offering criticism or
concern out of any prejudice, but is fascinated by the audacity it takes to publicly accuse a
mayor and city manager of conspiracy while literally conspiring to fire a city manager and in the
process, grabbing at a constitutionally protected right to address their public concerns in a
public forum. He stated that he was also a former County Board Member, and also the president
of a fraternal organization that also operates by the Robert's Rules of Order. Furthermore, he
likes the idea that they can disagree about how they achieve certain goals and can have a
difference in opinion about how to accomplish those goals. They have to work together to
resolve conflicts and it is disappointing to see these kinds of fits being thrown by people that
are seemingly fueled by nothing but ego right now. He has full faith in every single person that
sits in this Council right now but understands that some may have some ideologies that are
different from one another.

He concluded by stating that if you do and you say racist comments, they will get called for it.
He hopes they are more mindful about how they act towards people and marginalized peoples.
Joe Hicks addressed the Council and stated that he grew up in this town and likes living here. He
believes in the Galesburg project, and he wants our town to succeed, but we also have so many
significant headwinds and live in a region of the country that is falling behind. We live in a state
that is losing population. He stated that if it turns out that the real solution that is needed to get
things going is to get a new city manager, then so be it. However, he is unclear that doing this at
a session that was called the Friday before is the way to make that happen. Mr. Hicks doesn't
feel that this is a way to move forward and just creates another headwind to Galesburg moving
fo rwa rd .
Jackie Smith -Esters addressed the Council and stated that she had not planned to speak at this
meeting, however, if she didn't say anything then she is not being the civic service person that
she is saying that she is. She stated that she heard a Council Member say that they requested a
Work Session and she feels this is a blatant lie per an email she saw in a FOIA request. She read
that it was requested to go directly onto an agenda for approval.
Josh Christianson addressed the Council and stated that he has lived in Galesburg most of his
life and that he loves the people here. He believes that all the members of the Council and
everyone here today all feel the same and that this is a town that we love and want to live and
make a better place. He stated that the failure to vote on the contract for an interim public
works director is neglecting the most basic maintenance of our infrastructure and that this cost
will be passed on to citizens in the form of damages to vehicles. This is just one of many ways
Galesburg residents are harmed by the inaction of this Council. He is also in favor of the
proposal to alter the lease of the Downtown Depot, which is a charitable organization that
provides food, diapers, clothing and other household necessities to Galesburg residents in need.
Galesburg has an estimated 20% of citizens living in poverty and has steadily been declining in
population, currently at a rate of nearly 1% each year.
Mr. Christianson stated that he believes Galesburg would be more attractive to potential
residents and businesses if we had a robust public works department that serves the needs of
our most vulnerable neighbors, allowing all to meet their full potential. The last thing Galesburg
needs is more vacancies on our downtown Main Street. He inquired about the Churchill building
and what the timeline for Galesburg to have a city community center would be since it's been
nearly a decade since our last center was sold without a bid. Our youth are in desperate need of
a safe place to spend time and engage in productive and healthy activities. He stated that the
former Northgate was such a place, but now the town has an even larger liquor store. He
questioned why they were issued a license to open a liquor mega store. He noted that the City
Council has had no action on a homeless center and that they are unable to make a decision on
whether the city should purchase the site from the rescue mission. It is his understanding that
this deal has been in the works for nearly a year, but that Council Members were quoted on the
radio saying they didn't have enough information on the matter.
Mr. Christensen stated that in his opinion, the proposal to limit public comment is a disgusting
attempt to silence warranted criticism following public outcry over recent actions and inaction
May 15, 2023 Page 15 of 19
Back to Agenda
taken by this Council. This body is to serve the public and must always be receptive to comment
and criticism. Any member who votes in favor of this proposal will be noted as being against
free speech and being unwilling to hear valid concerns from their constituents.
John Lane addressed the Council and stated that he chose to move to Galesburg recently from
elsewhere in the area and attended Knox College. He sees a thread from comments he has
heard tonight through many people's speeches that being on the Council is important and
nonpartisan and that previous Councils have taken seriously the responsibility of working
together and understanding the needs of the City. Taking money from partisan PACs is not that
and serving the agendas of local elites and conspiring outside the realm of public meetings, is
actually illegal. He stated that it brings him joy to see at this meeting tonight that at the very
least, the members of the Council that are coming to these meetings with an agenda are not
getting to do that in the shadows.
Carrie Engebretson addressed the Council and stated that she raised their daughters in
Galesburg. She thanked the Mayor and is happy to have such a great Mayor to represent our
town. She stated that her husband always said that local politics are very important and she
doesn't think people really get that when they don't vote, this is what happens. She addressed
Mr. Smith and noted that she hopes this works out for him because she thinks it would be great
for Galesburg. Ms. Engebretson expressed that there is a member on this board that has been
on Twitter, spewing homophobic and transphobic comments, and she thinks it is very
inappropriate.
She stated that there are gay people and trans people living here that need to be part of our
community and feel welcome and that they are just as important as any of them. It is not their
business what they do or who they love. She feels that this country is full of hate and it doesn't
belong in Galesburg. She loves this town, loves the diversity and wants people to feel welcome.
We need to accept people and we need to just be like the women tonight who are begging for
you to keep the Downtown Depot open so they can eat.
Steve Abron addressed the Council and stated that he was born and raised here. He owned a
barber shop for 45 years on South Henderson Street and left there to work at Hill Correctional.
He has worked in the neighborhoods and has spoken for an African American group that does a
lot of things for the community and helps network with the City. He stated that when he heard
that Galesburg got a black City Manager, he wondered how long he would last. He noted that
he himself had a difficult time getting an apprenticeship and was denied many jobs. Many
people came to his aid at that time and he thanked the Galesburg community for stepping up to
the plate today with their remarks.
Mr. Abron announced that they will be celebrating Juneteenth at Carl Sandburg College this
year on June 17th and the whole community is welcome. He stated that they are holding the
event at the college in order to have enough space for everything -- food vendors, activity for
kids, and some educational classes. This will be a time for everyone to come out and mingle.
Semenya McCord addressed the Council and stated that they say that if you don't know your
history, you're doomed to repeat it. And usually, that's a reference to something we don't want
May 15, 2023 Page 16 of 19

repeated. She is a big fan of history and looking back and thinking about how governments and
cities of nations have worked. She stated that on July 4, 1787, General Washington led the
delegates in a prayer service and the Reverend William Rogers offered words of prayer. The
delegates joined in the Lord's Prayer, went back to work and soon they had a document that
began with "We the people of the United States in order to form a more perfect union." Ms.
McCord stated that she would have given the invocation at the regular meeting and perhaps
this was her way to sneak it in any way. She added that in looking into her history and the
history of this country, Galesburg is as good and as strong as her lifetime living here, working
here, teaching here, eating here, and sharing great times with so many people.
She stated that we all want a unified government, for all the people, a more perfect union. She
is gratified that people are speaking, and that people are listening. She gave her gratitude to
the city manager and his family and noted that she told Mr. Smith that Galesburg was going
through a time of learning, changing, and growing. Her faith tells her that we will succeed and
be better off. She apologized to the Smith family that they are having to go through this turmoil
that we as a community are rushing through.
Council Member Acerra introduced Keri-Lyn Krafthefer who is an expert in municipal law and
actually wrote the Illinois Municipal League's Municipal Handbook. She is part of a very well
respected law firm that she contacted given what was happening locally, and the City would
have a departure soon with counsel. She noted that she would like to have somebody work with
the Council as a legislative body.
Keri-Lyn Krafther introduced herself and stated that she is a partner with the law firm of Ancel
Glink, P.C. and that they have offices throughout the state. They represent approximately 250
public bodies with the closest to Galesburg being city attorneys for Moline, Geneseo and Silvis.
She stated that she was contacted by a Council Member because she believed at the time that
the city attorneys had resigned. She does understand that at this moment, the City does have
an acting city attorney but that they have given notice. She was contacted to see if their law
firm was able to provide assistance to either the city or to the Council Members in their
legislative capacity. She noted that sometimes councils want the ability to get a legal opinion
and it might be different from the opinion of the city attorney, or of the attorneys selected by
the mayor or the manager. She added that they are very respectful of the offices of mayor and
city manager, because we've represented mayors and managers and disputes that they've had
with councils before.
Ms. Krafthefer noted that their firm has approximately 40 attorneys, who are required to take
classes on a regular basis about diversity and inclusion. She herself teaches principles of
diversity and inclusion to other attorneys, especially with respect to transgender rights, both to
attorneys in Illinois, in the nation and internationally. She stated that her law firm is strongly
committed to anti corruption in the State of Illinois and one of her law partners was recently
elected to be the Speaker of the House. She reported that what she wants to do is make sure
that everyone, on whatever side of the political divide they are on, that Galesburg is acting in
accordance with the law. No one at her firm is familiar with anyone on the City Council and they
would just be available to advise the Council on issues that might come up, especially in the
May 15, 2023 Page 17 of 19
Back to Agenda
middle of a transition with respect to the legal team. She stated that she prepared the
ordinance, which is a very common ordinance for legislative counsel, which basically says that
they would provide advice to counsel and not encroach upon the role that the city attorney
would play. They would mostly be a supplement to the legal team, or be available to provide a
second opinion.
City Manager Smith stated that being from Chicago, he is very familiar and has worked with
Ancel Glink. He asserted that he has no issues whatsoever with the law firm and that they are
the premier municipal law firms in the Chicago metro area. He noted that he was not sure if the
City still had to retain in-house counsel and understands that Ancel Glink is offering services to
counterbalance. If there are issues and questions about the in-house counsel's opinion, Council
would have the ability to reach out to Ancel Glink.
The City Manager noted that if the City was to retain the services of another law firm, to
balance their opinion, that's usually called Special Counsel. The City already has the ability to do
that right now, and if there is a divergence of opinions on counsel, the City can always make that
request for a second opinion. He again stated that he would have no problems with reaching
out to Ancel Glink. City Manager Smith did note that the City needs to recruit and hire a new
law firm, which is the traditional process, or however Council wishes to proceed.
Mayor Schwartzman inquired about the process of approval since the City of Galesburg typically
has two readings for ordinances and that he only saw this ordinance for the first time this
evening.
Interim City Attorney Mangieri stated that when the Special Meeting notice was sent out, it did
make reference to consideration of the ordinance. This then does provide notice that there was
to be discussion and potential action to approve an ordinance authorizing the City Council to
retain independent Legislative Counsel. He believes that there was proper notice of a potential
item of business. However, he did note that the City of Galesburg does have a rule that
ordinances require two readings. He explained that there could be a motion made and
seconded, to suspend the rules. This would require a two-thirds vote to move to adopt this. He
added that there would need to be two votes -- one to suspend the rules, which would take a
two-thirds vote, and then it would be up to Council to then entertain another motion for a
passage that would be subject to debate. That would be determined by a simple majority.
Council Member White stated that he has not had a chance to review the ordinance. He is
pleased that the City Manager is aware of the law firm and would be amenable to hiring them;
however, he feels that he was left out of any conversation related to this item. He noted that he
had the floor and that if he wanted, he could talk the remaining three hours of the meeting and
perform an actual filibuster.
Council Member White stated that he was not consulted regarding an interim legal team and
wondered if it had been discussed with other Council Members. He stated that there is
something called deception, and when deception is present, everything that is done, everything
that is said, is going to be scrutinized. If you deceive people, deceive the voters, you are lying,
and everything that comes out of that person's mouth from that point on will be questioned.

City Manager Smith asked for clarification that if the City Council engages in their own
legislative representation, whether it preempts in-house counsel.
Ms. Krafthefer stated that the Legislative Council ordinance specifically states that they will not
encroach upon, replace or usurp the powers of corporation council or city attorney. She stated
that the City has a legal department, which is noted in the Municipal Code, but it does not
reference special counsel.
Mayor Schwartzman announced that this ordinance would appear on the June 5th agenda for
its second reading.
Council Member Cheesman moved, seconded by Council Member White, to adjourn into

applicants, the current salary would make it very difficult to find qualified candidates and the

market is very competitive. The director position needs to have more experience as a manager

Council Member Hix explained that entering into a lease with the Downtown Depot is to protect
both parties, it was never the intention to evict them. Council Member Dennis concurred with
Council Member Hix and explained that a lease protects the tenants. If there is no agreement,
the City could allow another party to occupy the space.
Molly Miller expressed her concern with the timing of the resolution. The current tenants have
been in the space for over two years and don't understand why all of the sudden the City wants
a lease.
Council Member Miller stated that there was never any intention to evict the current tenants.
Council Member Cheesman added that there has been a lot of misinformation regarding this
matter and the Council needs to work on better communication with the public.
Diane Crock stated that she is willing to work with the City to make the space work for the
Downtown Depot, she also questioned the timing of the lease being brought forth by the

CLOSING COMMENTS
Council Member White stated that during the Council meeting he has been hearing other
Council Members saying "we" while discussing items such as the sale of Churchill. He stated
that he was not a part of their discussions and added that he has never asked or guided any
Council Members on their vote.
Council Member White noted that he represents his Ward and all Council Members should
represent their Wards and not other wards or political affiliations. He stated that certain Council
Members will vote together and that is not democracy. Council Member White encouraged
citizens to get involved and reach out to their aldermen.
Council Member Davis announced the Prairie Players Civic Theatre is hosting the female version
of the production The Odd Couple, on May 19th through 21st and on May 26th through the
28th and encouraged everyone to come out and see the play and support the community.
Council Member Cheesman thanked the citizens for coming to the Council meeting. He also
thanked Paul Mangieri for doing a great job as the City's legal counsel. He emphasized that he
will base his votes on what he feels is right. Everyone benefits by working together, showing
respect to one another and communicating.
Council Member Dennis stated that he agrees with Council Member White that the alderman
represents their ward, but they also represent the entire City. He was pleased that the
resolution for the lease at 120 East Main Street passed with a unanimous vote. Council
Member Dennis said that there are veterans bricks you can purchase to be placed at Bunker
Links for $100 and to contact David Selkirk if interested.

Mayor Schwartzman announced that May is veterans appreciation month and acknowledged
Council Members White and Dennis and others for their service. He stated that there has been
news in the media that he visited the Soviet Union as a child. Mayor Schwartzman spent five
weeks there and talked to many people and learned about their inability to express themselves.
This greatly affected him; he will always defend the First Amendment. Mayor Schwartzman
believes that all Council Members want what is best for the community but the community
cannot do better if only certain people are doing better.
Mayor Schwartzman noted that Bunker Links had record numbers in April, it is a wonderful
facility and hopes that more people take advantage of the course. Bunker Links has been
recognized as one of the top twenty-five municipal golf courses in the country.
Mayor Schwartzman thanked the media that attended tonight's Council meeting and
appreciates that they made the long drive to attend.
Mayor Schwartzman intends to shake all the hands of the Council Members in hope to extend
an olive branch for peace.

BACKGROUND: IHDA has announced Round 2 of the Strong Communities Program Grant. In

were fully expended and reimbursed the City for the demolition of 12 homes. In Round 2, IHDA
has increased the amount that can be requested from $250,000 to $750,000. The City is
requesting $750,000 in the Illinois Housing Development Authority's Strong Community Program
Grant Round 2. Applications are due June 7, 2023, and it is anticipated that the City will be
notified of the award in September 2023.
Funding from this grant can be used for new or past expenditures for work completed dating
back to January 2022 up to December 2023 for property acquisition, rehabilitation, demolition,
removal of debris, nuisance vegetation, and grass mowing. Eligible properties must be
residential, in a residential zone and abandoned. Ineligible properties include legally occupied
residences, historically registered properties, commercial, industrial, agricultural, or mixed use
properties with residential units.
The City will utilize these funds to be reimbursed for acquisition and demolition of abandoned
properties in 2022 and 2023 but can also utilize these funds for weed and nuisance abatement
on abandoned properties. The City successfully administered SCP Round 1 and will again
administer this grant without a third party.

SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: The Acting City Manager, City Engineer/Acting Public Works
Director, Water Superintendent and Purchasing Agent recommend that the City Council approve
the three year maintenance agreement with Altorfer Power Systems in the amount of $13,792.00
per year.
BACKGROUND: The City of Galesburg Water Division has three standby diesel generators (well
field and water treatment plant in Oquawka and pumping station in Galesburg) and one natural
gas engine to use in emergency situations during loss of Ameren power. These four units require
routine maintenance to be performed by a qualified Caterpillar trained technician. The reliability
of these four units is critical during emergency situations. Altorfer Power Systems has performed
maintenance services on all four of these units in the past and are very familiar with the units.
The Water Division would like to enter into a three year maintenance agreement with Altorfer
Power Systems to perform these maintenance services. The agreement calls for two service visits
per year for each unit and is to be scheduled for March and October of each year. The eight
service visits total $13,792.00 per year. The agreement with Altorfer will begin in October 2023.
All services performed will be covered by a six-month warranty against materials and
workmanship defects.
BUDGET IMPACT: There are sufficient funds in the Water Division Budget (061).

CITY OF GALESBURG
COUNCIL LETTER
J U N E 05, 2023
AGENDA ITEM: Approve the purchase of phosphate inhibitor.
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: The Acting City Manager, City Engineer/Acting Director of
Public Works, Water Superintendent and Purchasing Agent recommend that the City Council
waive normal purchasing policies and approve the purchase of one bulk delivery of phosphate
inhibitor from Hawkins, Inc. at a cost of $0.795 per pound. The bulk delivery is approximately
46,000 pounds.
BACKGROUND: As required by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA), the Water
Division must treat the drinking water with a phosphate inhibitor for corrosion control of lead
and copper.
A comprehensive corrosion control study was conducted in 2016 to determine the best
phosphate product to achieve corrosion protection of lead and copper. Since the study, the
Water Division has been purchasing Hawkins LPC-132 phosphate inhibitor and it has proven to
be very effective in the lowering of lead and copper levels in the drinking water. Based on the
success of reduced lead and copper levels, staff recommend the continued use of Hawkins LPC-
132.
In the past, the City has obtained annual contracts for the purchase of phosphate inhibitor.
However, due to the volatility of pricing phosphate inhibitor in 2022 the vendor was only able to
extend pricing for six months at a time. The volatility has increased in 2023 and the vendor is now
only able to quote the phosphate inhibitor for each bulk delivery. This bulk delivery of phosphate
inhibitor is the second of four deliveries for 2023.
For price comparison, the quote for phosphate deliveries in April and June 2022 was $0.44 per
pound and for phosphate deliveries in September and December 2022 was $0.662 per pound.
The first phosphate delivery in 2023 was $0.795 per pound.
BUDGET IMPACT: The Water Division has sufficient funds in their budget.

COUNCIL LETTER
J U N E 05, 2023
AGENDA ITEM: Approve pricing for water meters and radio units.
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: The Acting City Manager, City Engineer/Acting Public Works
Director, Water Superintendent and Purchasing Agent recommend that the City Council waive
normal purchasing policies and approve the product pricing as provided by Core & Main for
various water meters and radio units to be purchased by the Water Division.
BACKGROUND: The Water Division regularly purchases various sized water meters and radio
units throughout the year. The Water Division specifically utilizes Sensus brand products for these
needs. The authorized vendor for these products in the Galesburg market is Core & Main out of
Washington, II.
In the past, the City has obtained a 1-year contract for the purchase of water meters and radio
units. However, due to market volatility at this time, the vendor is only able to provide pricing
through June 30, 2023. The City will obtain pricing at a later date for the second half of the year.
Core & Main was contacted to provide 1) pricing for a specific bulk sale amount of 5/8" water
meters and radio units and 2) pricing for any additional purchase that might be necessary.
The following pricing for the planned bulk purchase is:
Description Qty. U of M Unit Price Extension
5/8" Accustream Meter 500 Ea. $88.25 $44,125.00
510M Wired Radio Unit 500 Ea. $116.29 $56,645.00
Total of Planned Purchase: $100,770.00
The pricing above reflects a discount for completing a bulk order. In addition, a pricing list is
attached that contains various items that are potentially needed by the Water Division.
City staff recommend approval of this bulk purchase and use of specialized pricing for any
remaining water meter needs by the Water Division.
BUDGET IMPACT: The Water Division has sufficient funds in their budget.
SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS:
1. Pricing from Core & Main valid through 06/30/2023.
2. Sole source supporting documentation from Sensus.

COUNCIL LETTER
CITY OF GALESBURG
J U N E 5, 2023
AGENDA ITEM: Renewal of Agreement for use of Right of Way (ROW) by Unite Private
Networks -Illinois, LLC (UPN).
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: The Acting City Manager and Interim Director of Public
Works recommend approval of a renewal agreement for use of ROW for installing a fiber optic
cable by UPN.
BACKGROUND: At the May 21, 2012 City Council meeting, the Council approved a five year
agreement for UPN to install a fiber optic cable in the City's ROW along various City streets. At
the November 6, 2017 City Council meeting, the Council approved a renewal of the agreement
for an additional five years. In 2012, UPN installed fiber onto existing power poles located in
the City ROW in order to provide a fiber optic backbone and connection of all of School District
205's buildings within the City. The agreement for use of the ROW was developed by the City in
cooperation with the company in order to specify the City's requirements for the construction
and maintenance of the fiber optic cable. In addition, the agreement specifies insurance
requirements. The company has maintained their lines to the City's satisfaction and followed
the agreement.
The agreement also provides for exclusive use by the City of four fibers for internal
communication purposes. UPN installed these four fibers as part of their project at no cost to
the City. The renewal agreement is the same as the previous agreements and provides approval
for another five year period, renewable for up to five additional five year terms.

AGREEMENT FOR USE OF RIGHT OF WAY
THIS AGREEMENT is made this day of , 2023, by and
between the City of Galesburg, an Illinois municipal corporation (the "City"), and Unite
Private Networks -Illinois, LLC (the "Company")
RECITALS
The Company has requested permission from City to install fiber optic cable
("Communication Facilities") in the right of way of certain City streets, by
attaching said cable to existing utility poles located in said rights of way, and also
by means of underground installation.
2. The route of the fiber optic cable will be as shown on Exhibit A, attached hereto and
made a part hereof.
3. The City is willing to allow installation of the Company's fiber optic cable upon the
City right of way under the terms and conditions of this agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises of each of the parties to
the other and the covenants contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration,
the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
Recitals. The recitals are a material part of this Agreement and are incorporated
herein by reference.
2. Installation of Cable. The City hereby grants to the Company the right to install and
maintain its fiber optic cable and related equipment (the "System") in the right of way of
the City along the route described in Exhibit A, subject to the terms of this Agreement. The
City Engineer shall have the authority to approve minor deviations of the route upon written
application of the Company. This grant shall not be considered permission to provide local
telecommunications in the City of Galesburg (except nothing in this Agreement shall impair
the Lease and Indefeasible Right of Use of Community School District Number 205 with
respect to the District's Lit or Dark Fiber Agreements), and the City reserves any and all
rights it has under law to require a franchise for such services to properties located with the
City.
The Company understands and acknowledges that the Company shall obtain all permits that
are required for the installation of the System. In exchange for the City's right to make such future
use of the Fiber as described in Paragraph 7, the City shall, for so long as the System remains within
any City Right of Way (ROW), waive the fees for any and all ROW and the permits required for the
installation and maintenance of the System within the City ROW.
3. Construction and Maintenance.
A. Prior to installation of any cable in the City right of way, the Company shall
submit plans and specifications for the installation to the City Engineer. The
Page 1 of 10
Back to Agenda
cable shall be installed in a reasonable manner as approved by the City
Engineer. The plans and specifications shall be provided by the Company to
the City not less than thirty (30) days prior to the commencement of work.
The City Engineer shall specify the portion of the right-of-way upon which
the System may be placed, used and constructed. Communication facilities
within the City rights -of -way shall be constructed, operated, and maintained
in conformity with the provisions of 83 Ill. Adm. Code Part 305 (formerly
General Order 160 of the Illinois Commerce Commission) entitled "Rules
for Construction of Electric Power and Communications Lines". Any
changes to the plans and specifications for the work shall be submitted to the
City Engineer for approval prior to the work being completed. As -built
drawings shall be supplied to the City Engineer within 90 days of completion
of the permitted work. The As -built drawings shall specifically identify
where the locations of the actual facilities deviate from the locations
approved in the permit.
B. A permit for work in the City right of way shall be obtained before any work
is commenced. The Company shall provide any necessary or required traffic
control at its expense. No material shall be stored on the right of way without
the prior written approval of the City Engineer. When such storage is
permitted, all pipe, conduit, wire, poles, cross arms, or other materials shall
be distributed along the right of way prior to and during installation in a
manner to minimize hazards to the public or an obstacle to right of way
maintenance or damage to the right of way and other property.
C. The System hereafter installed shall be so placed and all work in connection
with such installation shall be so performed as not to interfere with ordinary
travel on the right of way of the City unless specifically authorized by the
City Engineer, or with any water, gas or sewer pipes or other utility conduits
or cable television conduits or wires then in place, or hereafter placed.
Company, after doing any excavating, shall leave the surface of the ground
in the same condition as existed prior to such excavation. All sidewalks,
parkways or pavements, including driveway approaches, disturbed by said
Company shall be restored by it, and the surface to be restored shall be with
the same type of material as that existing prior to its being disturbed unless
otherwise specified by the City Engineer. In the event that any right of way,
real property, or fixed improvement thereon shall become uneven, unsettled,
damaged, or otherwise require restoration, repair or replacement because of
such disturbance or damage of the Company, then the Company shall
promptly, but in no event longer that fourteen (14) days after receipt of notice
from the City, and at the Company's sole cost and expense, restore as nearly
as practicable to their former condition said property or improvement which
was disturbed or damaged.
Should adverse weather conditions cause delay in completing the work, the
Company shall promptly notify the City immediately upon onset of the
Page 2 of 10
Back to Agenda
delay. Thereafter, the City Engineer, in his sole discretion, may direct
temporary repairs be made to remain in place until the weather allows
permanent repairs to be installed and the Company shall promptly install said
temporary repairs or extend such time for work completion to a date certain.
The date extension shall take into account the weather conditions and other
factors affecting the work. The company shall complete the work on or
before the date certain. Any such restoration of the City's right-of-way by
the Company shall be made in accordance with such materials and
specification as may from time to time, be then provided for the ordinance
or regulation of the City and to the satisfaction of the City Engineer. The
Company shall notify the City when the work is completed. If the Company
fails to restore the property in accordance with the above, then the City may,
if it to desires, contract with a third party for such restoration or utilize its
own work forces, to restore such property. The Company shall pay the
reasonable cost incurred by the City for such restoration within twenty-one
(21) days after the receipt of a written bill for such cost.
D. The City shall have no obligation to mark the location of Company's
facilities. Company acknowledges that it has the opportunity to become a
member of the statewide "One Call" Utility Location system (JULIE), and
that the Company agrees that it will become a member as a requirement of
this Agreement and that such a system is designed to alert Company to
planned work in the right of way, so that Company can mark the location of
its facilities to avoid damage. The City shall have no obligation to alert
Company to proposed work by itself or others, other than as a participating
member of the JULIE system.
E. Construction operations on rights -of -way may, at the discretion of the City,
be required to be discontinued when such operations would create hazards to
traffic or the public health, safety, and welfare. Such operations may also be
required to be discontinued or restricted when conditions are such that
construction would result in extensive damage to the right of way or other
property.
F. Within one hundred eighty (180) days following written notice from the City,
the Company shall, at its own expense, protect, support, temporarily or
permanently disconnect, remove, relocate, change or alter the position of any
System facilities within the rights -of -way whenever the corporate authorities
have determined that such removal, relocation, change or alteration, is
reasonably necessary for the construction, repair, maintenance, or
installation of any City improvement in or upon, or the operations of the City
in or upon, the rights of way. Within thirty (30) days following written notice
from the City, the Company shall, at its own expense, remove from the rights
of way all or any part of any unauthorized facility or related appurtenances
that Company owns, controls, or maintains within the rights of way. A

3) If the facility was constructed or installed without prior issuance of a
required permit; or
4) If the facility was constructed or installed at a location not permitted
by the permittee's license or franchise.
The City retains the right and privilege to cut or move any facilities located
within the rights of way of the City, as the City may determine to be
necessary, appropriate or useful in response to any public health or safety
emergency. If circumstances permit, the municipality shall attempt to notify
the Company, if known, prior to cutting or removing a facility and shall
notify the Company, if known, after cutting or removing a facility.

way of the City, the Company shall notify the City within ninety (90) days.

COUNCIL LETTER
CITY OF GALESBURG
JUNE 5, 2023
AGENDA ITEM: Ordinance directing sale of City -owned property.
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: An ordinance to direct the sale of a City -owned lot as outlined
in the attached ordinance is provided for council consideration.
BACKGROUND: The City has a property located at 905 Maple Ave which could be made available
for sale. In order to initiate the possible sale of this property, the attached ordinance must be
approved by the City Council. Also attached is a table of information for the property proposed
for sale and a sample Request for Bid Document.
The proposed time schedule for the bid process is as follows:
May 15, 2023 first reading of ordinance presented to the City Council authorizing City
Administration to proceed with bidding.
June 5, 2023 final reading of ordinance.
June 9, 2023 first notice of sale to be printed in the newspaper
June 16, 2023 second notice of sale to be printed in the newspaper
June 23, 2023 third (final) notice of sale to be printed in the newspaper.
July 3, 2023 bids would be received and opened during the City Council meeting.
July 5, 2023 bids will be reviewed.
The Request for Bid document must include a Development Plan bid. The purpose of the
Development Plan bid is for the City to have more control over the proposed use of the property.
The bidder submits detailed information on their plans for the property which must take place
within two years of purchasing the property. If the plan is not followed the City has recourse by
being able to take back ownership of the property from the bidder and the bidder forfeits 50%
of their purchase price. A Development Plan bid option offers the City Council the ability to
determine the best bid based upon the development proposed and not just the price.
BUDGET IMPACT: Sale of the property would eliminate the need for City maintenance of the
properties (i.e. weed mowing), and utility costs; and at the same time place the properties back
on the property tax roll. Any proceeds from the sale are deposited in the Property
Redevelopment Fund to allow continued funding for future foreclosures.

R. City Council Expectations
In the past, City Council members have indicated that the bids offered for properties being

value for the City Council's consideration.

Back to Agenda
The successful bidder shall pay all costs associated with the transfer of the property (e.g.
recording of deed). The City will not provide title insurance for the lots. If title insurance
is desired, it shall be the bidder's responsibility to obtain and pay for title insurance.
T. Transfer of Title
Once the successful bidder has been notified via a letter of the City Council's approval of
the bid, the successful bidder shall have forty-five (45) calendar days to submit payment
through a cashier's check. If the successful bidder fails to provide proper payment within
this time frame, the City shall have the right to withdraw its approval of the bid.
U. Property Dimensions
The property dimensions for the lot listed in Exhibit A are approximate dimensions based
upon Knox County Assessment records. The City of Galesburg cannot guarantee these
dimensions. To obtain the exact dimensions a successful bidder would need to have a
land surveyor survey the parcel.

Back to Agenda
WHEREAS, First Party and Second Party have reached mutually agreeable terms for
granting said right of first refusal and wish to reflect their agreement in writing;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, which are hereby incorporated
hereinafter by reference as part of the agreements of the parties, and the agreements, covenants and
conditions hereinafter set forth, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
1. Right of First Refusal. (a) First Party hereby grants to Second Party the right to
purchase said real estate, upon the same terms as any bona fide offer to purchase, convey, or
exchange the same, or any part or undivided interest therein, received by First Party, which offer is
acceptable to First Party. Should the offer received by First Party include a proposal by the offeror
to exchange certain other real estate for all or a part of said real estate, Second Party shall have the
right to purchase said real estate at the fair market value of the property offered in exchange, plus
any additional consideration included in said offer. Such right shall exist for a period of thirty (30)
days after First Party gives written notice to Second Party of such offer. If Second Party elects to
exercise the right of first refusal herein granted, it shall give First Party written notice of its said
election within thirty (30) days of First Party giving such notice, and failing this, it shall be deemed
to have waived and forfeited his right to purchase granted herein. Once forfeited, said right of first
refusal shall be forever extinguished, and shall not be binding upon nor impede First Party, or its
successors or assigns, in its sale of said real estate; provided, however, that a waiver by Second Party
to purchase a part of, or an undivided interest in, said real estate pursuant to a bona fide offer
received by and acceptable to First Party for the sale of said part or undivided interest shall not
constitute a waiver or forfeiture by Second Party as to the remaining part or undivided interest still
owned by First Party; and provided further that the sale by First Party may only be on the terms
specified in the bona fide offer of which Second Party was given notice, and if such sale does not
close to the offeror of the bona fide offer, Second Party's rights hereunder shall reinstate as to the
property described in said bona fide offer.
(b) In the event that Second Party exercises its right of first refusal herein
granted, it shall immediately execute a written Sales Contract with First Party for said real estate,
which Contract shall incorporate the terms of said offer received by First Party, substituting if need
be, a monetary value for any real estate offered in exchange, and shall proceed to close on such
purchase in accordance with the terms of such Contract, within a period of sixty (60) days.
2. Notices. All communications and notices required by this agreement to be served

COUNCIL LETTER
CITY OF GALESBURG
JUNE 5, 2023
AGENDA ITEM: Amendment to Section 30.06(H) of Chapter 30 of the Galesburg Municipal
Code regarding Public Participation during City Council meetings.
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: Amendment to Section 30.06(H) of Chapter 30 of the
Galesburg Municipal Code regarding Public Participation during City Council meetings is
presented for council consideration.
BACKGROUND: At the May 15, 2023 City Council Meeting, Council looked at amending sections
30.06(D), 30.06(E), and 30.06(H) of Chapter 30 of the Galesburg Municipal Code. After a Work
Session meeting on May 22, 2023, a consensus was reached in getting rid of the sign -in
requirement for public comment and to amend the time allocated to each speaker from the
proposed two minutes to three minutes.
As the amendments to 30.06(D) and 30.06(E) related only to the inclusion of the sign -in
requirement, those amendments have been removed from the proposed ordinance.
Section 30.06(H) has been amended to limit the public comments from two minutes to three
minutes per speaker. Section 30.06(H) currently limits public comments to five minutes per
speaker.
Also included for council review and consideration in the attached draft ordinance, at the
request of four City Council members, is language which limits the total time allotted for public
comment to 60 minutes at regular city council meetings, and 30 minutes at work sessions and
special city council meetings. The draft ordinance for review also indicates that the presiding
officer can extend the time period for public comment or permit public comment at any other
time during the meeting, with a majority vote of the City Council.
BUDGET IMPACT: The budget is not impacted by the adoption of these Amendments.

CITY OF GALESBURG
JUNE 5, 2023
AGENDA ITEM: Ordinance authorizing the City Council to retain independent legislative counsel.
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: An ordinance creating the new position of legislative counsel
was brought forth by members of the city council at the May 15, 2023 special city council meeting
and appears for a final reading on this agenda.
BACKGROUND: The ordinance provided indicates that City Council members may from time to
time have divergent views and perspectives on issues coming before the council, and at times
may choose not to seek legal counsel from the City Attorney and rather may wish to seek
independent legal counsel.
The proposed ordinance creates the position of legislative counsel, and appoints the law firm of
Ancel, Glink, P.C. to serve as the independent legislative counsel for City Council members at the
rate of $250 per hour for attorneys and $115 per hour for paralegal services, plus expenses
incurred, subject to an annual rate increase.
The legislative counsel would advise the City Council members regarding issues involving
legislative duties, as well as provide legal opinions. The legislative counsel shall not replace or
usurp the powers of the City Attorney.
BUDGET IMPACT: The expense will be paid from the legal fund (145).

COUNCIL LETTER
CITY OF GALESBURG
JUNE 5, 2023
AGENDA ITEM: Ordinance proposing amendment to Special Service Area Number One to provide
for a ten-year extension of the $1.50 tax.
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: The Acting City Manager/Director of Community Development
recommends the City Council approve the ordinance. By approving the ordinance, the City
Administration would be authorized to schedule a public hearing concerning the ten-year
extension of the $1.50 Special Service Area tax. This tax is only placed upon properties located
within the Special Service Area (see attached map of the area).
BACKGROUND: On January 20, 1975, the City Council approved Special Ordinance No. 75-4 which
created Special Service Area Number One. The purpose of this was to provide a funding
mechanism for needed improvements in the "Downtown". The special ordinance authorized the
levy of two taxes, the first tax was for the payment of principal and interest for a bond issue in
the amount of $1,060,000. The funds from the bond issue helped to pay for the various capital
improvements in the "Downtown" area, such as lighting, landscaping, etc. Repayment was
established with final payment being in the City's 1994-95 fiscal year. A tax rate was established
each year in an amount to assure bond repayments were covered, with the final levy having been
in 1993, for taxes payable in 1994. The yearly levy ranged from $1.40 to $1.70 per $100 of
equalized assessed value.
The second tax levy which was established in Special Ordinance No. 75-4 was for a flat rate of
$1.00 per $100 of equalized assessed value and was approved to continue annually. Monies
generated from this levy are utilized to pay maintenance services in the "Downtown" area. This
levy will continue on a yearly basis until the City Council decides to change this.
When the bonds were paid off in 1994, the Downtown Council requested, and the City Council
approved a new tax to replace the "bond" tax for a ten-year period. This was a yearly tax levy of
$1.50 per $100 of equalized assessed value. The Downtown Council utilized funds from this levy
to cover a variety of expenses including administrative, maintenance, other operational costs, as
well as capital improvements (e.g. fagade grants). This tax expired with the 2003 levy, payable
2004.
A second ten-year extension was requested by the Downtown Council and approved by the City
Council in 2003. This extension expires with the 2013 levy for property taxes payable in 2014.
The Downtown Council has requested the City Council consider another ten-year extension of
the $1.50 tax.
Prepared by: GUG Page 1 of 2
Back to Agenda
The process to initiate the ten-year extension begins with the Council consideration of the
attached ordinance that proposes the extension and schedules a public hearing on the process.
If this ordinance is approved by the City Council, a legal notice is published in the paper and all
owners of property located within the Special Service Area are sent notice of the public hearing.
Once the public hearing is held, there is a 60-day period where no action can be taken to give any
objectors time to file a petition opposing the amendment. Once the 60-day period expires, the
City Council will consider an ordinance that approves the ten-year extension. Attached is a
proposed time schedule for this process.
BUDGET IMPACT: There would be no impact on the City's budget. The property owners in the
Special Service Area would pay additional property taxes to fund this.
SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS:
1. Information from Galesburg Downtown Council requesting ten-year extension of $1.50 rate.
2. Ordinance.
3. Location Map.
4. Proposed time schedule.

Mr. Gerald Smith
City Manager
City of Galesburg
55 West Tompkins Street
Galesburg, IL 61401
Dear Mr. Smith:
On behalf of the Board of Directors of the Galesburg Downtown Council) please let
this letter serve as the formal request to amend the current Special Service Area (SSA)
Number One as per the Board's recommendation,
While no changes have been recommended in the current SSA levy rate or the
current SSA boundaries, the Board has recommended that the current SSA be
amended to renew the current SSA levy for an additional ten (10) year period
(Payable: 2025 through 2034). Funds generated by the SSA would continue to be
used to maintain capital improvement/ development programs, ongoing short and
long term maintenance efforts, as well as grant awards for community events and
special projects in the Downtown Galesburg area.
Please note that the attached documents have been developed to specifically address
the seven steps recommended to propose an amendment to the SSA. The information
within the document has been expanded to include the History of the Galesburg
Downtown Council and the SSA as well as the accomplishments noted within
Downtown Galesburg during the past ten (10) years of the SSA levy.
Please do not hesitate to contact me at 309-358-1213 if you have any questions and/or
concerns regarding this SSA amendment request.

Galesburg Downtown Council
Proposal to Amend Special Service Area Number One
The Name and Legal Status of the Applicant
The name of the applicant of this applicant shall be the Galesburg Downtown Council
(Thereinafter referred to as the "Council' and/or the "GDC"). The history and legal status of the GDC
has been summarized as follows:
In 1973, the Downtown Galesburg community responded to the development of a regional shopping
center within the northwest quadrant of Galesburg with the creation of the Galesburg Downtown
Council (GDC). The GDC was established as a private non-profit corporation formed for the purpose
of promoting continuing development of the Galesburg Central business District (Downtown) through
programs of business retention and acquisition, marketing, landscape .improvement and maintenance,
general coordination of downtown activities and other activities to advance efforts to maintain and
improve Downtown Galesburg..
One of the first duties of the GDC was to implement an economic impact study to determine the
potential consequences of the development on the Downtown Galesburg community. One of the
preliminary recommendations from that study was the creation of a Special Service Area (SSA) which
would generate funds be used to improve downtown infrastructure and maintain the viability of
Downtown Galesburg.
In response to the study recommendations and requests by the GDC, and pursuant -to the provisions of
Article of the Constitution of the State of Illinois (PA 78-901), the Galesburg City Council approved
the creation of the SSA in January, 1975 pursuant to Ordinance 75-4 .approved on January 20, 1975
and as amended by Ordinance 76-63, approved March 15, 1976 and Ordinance 92-415, approved May
4, 1992, and Ordinance 13-547, approved November 18, 2013 as well as the management of the SSA
Funds by .the GDC Board.
The GDC was also mandated with the responsibility to make recommendations to the Galesburg City
Council regarding the extension and changes to the SSA Fund(s) as necessary.
Services Provided within the Special Service Area
The mission of the GDC has been the same since its inception in 1973: The promotion and
development of Downtown Galesburg through business retention and acquisition, marketing,
landscape improvement and maintenance, coordination of downtown activities and any other
effort to advance the purpose of downtown Galesburg.
Back to Agenda
The GDC has continued to be governed by a Board of Directors, which consists of volunteer members
elected to represent the downtown property owners. The Council Board of Directors is made up of 13
Directors of various backgrounds. The Board also has liaison members from the City of Galesburg and
Tourism. GDC staff is a full time Director of Operations who has been tasked to oversee all of
downtown service/maintenance activities including but not limited to,
Hire one part time helper for summer watering and trash pickup.
Maintain GDC Facebook page.
Trash collection/removal, snow plowing, landscaping, flower planting/installation,
Christmas decorations/lighting, banner installation removal, graffiti/vandalism
reduction/removal, bush/tree trimming, to report and coordinate infrastructure needs
(sidewalks/streets) with City of Galesburg Public Works/Street Department personnel as
necessary and the coordination of all downtown special events as noted/requested.
Those efforts have been accomplished with direct invention by the Director of
Operations and/or the supervision of part-time employees by the Director of Operations.
The previous history of the GDC and SSA, as it is related to specific Downtown Galesburg
developments/improvements (many in cooperation with the City of Galesburg), has been impressive and
include major programs such as:
• The City of Galesburg and the GDC's Downtown Facade Redevelopment Grant Program.
The Facade committee since its inception has approved an estimated $3,431,797. for 31
facade projects throughout downtown. Monies granted from the TIF total $914,847 and the
GDC Grant funds total $497,806.
• New Holiday lights were purchased and installed over the last few years and a large yellow
steel decorative GALESBURG sign was installed on Main Street.
• GDC collaborates with The Downtown Community Partnership to assist in the many events
they have.
• The Banner program continues to change with the new design. With the help form the city
banners now extend over the two bridges and around the underpass on Main Street.
Likewise, GDC Grants for improvement to the Galesburg Downtown properties during the current ten
(10) year funding period have been equally productive. Those grants have included everything from
full facade renovations to awnings installation/improvements, lighting, specialty signs, painting and
masonry work. Some of the properties which have benefited from the GDC SSA Program within that
period have included but were not limited to:
• 41 S Seminary St (Craft Restaurant), 119 S Cherry St (Browns Business College), 64 S Prairie
St (Weinberg Arcade}, 45 S Cherry St. (old Knights of Columbus), 250 E Main St, 450 E
Main (Four Seasons Store), 311 E Main St (Bondi Building). Among the many others.
Several of the recent larger projects during this period have also had a significant positive impact on
the Galesburg Downtown Community. Those projects have included:
0 56 S Kellogg St, (The Matzelle building), & 66 N Seminary Street (Willis Lofts).

Special Service Boundaries
Special Service Area Number One generally consists of all property on the west by Cedar Street and
on the east by Chambers Street and extending within one block north and one and one half .blocks
south of Main Street. This area has been indicated on the attached map (Exhibit A). Proposed change:
The GDC has proposed no change in the current boundaries for Special Service Area Number One.
Tax Levy Rate
When the Special Service Area (S SA) was established in 19751 the Galesburg City Council approved
the levy of two taxes which were dedicated to funding maintenance and improvements to Downtown
Galesburg.
One of the levies was established to provide funding for the continuing maintenance needs of
Downtown Galesburg (known as the "Maintenance Fund"). That levy was set at a flat rate of $1.00
per Equalized Assessed Valuation (EAV) and was approved to continue -annually.
The other levy was initially used to ensure payment of principal and interest for bonds issued to
complete the improvements to downtown Galesburg within the "Streetscape Project" approved at
that time, The levy rate for that fund varied and was set annually to address the principal and interest
payments for those bonds.
When those obligations were completed in 1995, the Galesburg City Council approved the
replacement of that levy to provide funding for various projects including but not limited to:
additional maintenance needs within the SSA, administrative needs within the SSA, Capital
improvements within the SSA and Other operational costs associated with the SSA. That levy
(known as the "Multipurpose Fund") was initially set at a rate of $ 1.50 per Equalized Assessed
Valuation (EAV) and was originally approved to continue for a ten (10) year period until 2023. In
2013 the Galesburg City Council approved a ten (10) year extension to the levy.
The Multipurpose Fund has now been scheduled for consideration by the Galesburg City Council
during 2023 for the 2024 tax levy (payable in 2025). The GDC has recommended that there be no
increase proposed in the fund (See below):
Proposed change: The GDC has proposed no change in the current levy rate of $1.50 per $100.00 of
Equalized Assessed Evaluation (EAV) for Special Service Area Number One.
Without change, the current renewable rate would be computed as follows: A downtown property
valued at $30,000 (assessed at 1/3 market value or $10,000) would pay 1.5% of $10,000 or: $ 150.00
per year to the SSA.
Back to Agenda
Tax Lew Time Period
In 2013, the Galesburg City Council approved a ten (10) year extension of the $1.50 per $100.00
Equalized Assessed Evaluation; the extension period will expire and require consideration by the
Galesburg City Council during 2023 for the 2024 tax levy (payable in 2025). As Administrators of
the SSA Funds the GDC has been tasked to submit recommendation(s) regarding the Levy Rate and
time period to the Galesburg City Council
Proposed change: The GDC has proposed that the previous ten (10) year extension period of the
current levy rate of $1.50 per $100.00 of Equalized Assessed Evaluation (EAV) granted for Special
Service Area Number One be extended for an additional ten (10) year period (Payable: 2025-2034).
Support for Extension of the Tax Levu
The GDC has conducted an Annual meeting during February of each year of the SSA funding
period. The meetings are conducted to elect the GDC Board of Directors, update the GDC
membership with a summary of the completed and ongoing property improvement projects,
provide an explanation of any changes within the grant application process as well as other
collaboration efforts to improve the Downtown Galesburg area. In recent years those collaborative
efforts have included shared funding for decorative refuse receptacles which were placed
throughout the downtown as well as decorative lighting elements which have been erected during
the Holiday Season. Input from the GDC membership regarding the SSA concept and contribution
has remained positive and supportive through the funding period.
The GDC has also conducted monthly meetings which are open to the GDC membership. The
meetings are designed to discuss ongoing projects, funding availability, committee assignments
and accomplishments within the funding period. The monthly meetings also provide an
opportunity for input from Board members, as well as general membership, regarding the operation
of the GDC and the SSA process. Input from the GDC Board Members and general membership
regarding the SSA concept and contribution has also remained positive and supportive through the
funding period.
Additionally, in preparation for the SSA extension proposal and GDC recommendation,
information was provided to the Galesburg Downtown property owners within the SSA. That
information included the GDC recommendation to the City of Galesburg to extend the SSA levy at
the current rate for the ten (10) year period previously noted (Payable: 2025-2034) and also provided
details regarding the manner in which the funding for the SSA has been computed.
Based on feedback from the Downtown property owners during the previous ten (10) year period, it
is anticipated that the response to that information will also remain positive and supportive
regarding the SSA extension recommendation by the GDC
Back to Agenda
Need for the Extension of the Tax Lew
The successful record of past and current projects, as outlined above, would not have been
possible without the creation and continued funding provided by the SSA. Likewise, the
continuation of the maintenance programs as noted above would not be possible without the
extension of the funding provided by the SSA.
It is also important to note that, much like the decisions made in the past to improve and transform
the GDC in an effort to remain viable and responsive to demographic and marketing changes, the
ability to impact the Galesburg Downtown in a positive manner would cease to exist without the
extension of the SSA funding program.
Current discussions within the GDC have also included the increased desire to encourage second floor
residential developments in Downtown Galesburg. Those discussions have again attempted to change,
with the needs of the Downtown property owners and have considered a willingness to identify
different funding eligibilities for property owners within the SSA. An example of such new
opportunities and a significant step away from the current funding guidelines would be the
development of a program that would attempt to ensure that costs associated with such upgrades (ie.
The installation of residential sprinkler systems) may be off -set by SSA funding.
The viable state of Downtown Galesburg stands as quiet but strong testimony to the success of the
SSA Program and management of the program by the GDC. There is a sincere concern that the
forward thinking and forward movement of Downtown Galesburg, as demonstrated above, would stop
without the funding that the SSA would provide in the future.

amendment of Special Service Area Number One and may object to the levy of additional

A special tax will be considered at the public hearing to be levied for a period not to
exceed ten (10) years, commencing with the 2024 tax levy, and not to exceed an amount
of one and one half percent (1 %%) per annum of assessed value, as equalized, to be levied
against the real property included in the Special Service Area.
The proposed amount of the tax levy for special services for the initial year (2024 payable
2025) for which taxes will be levied within the special sericea area is anticipated to be
$111,365; but the final amount will be calculated utilizing the equalized assessed value
for the properties within the special service area as determined by the Knox County
Supervisor of Assessments for 2024 payable 2025 times the $1.50 tax rate.
At the hearing, all interested persons affected by the amendment of such Special Service
Area, including all persons owning taxable real estate therein, will be given an opportunity
to be heard at the hearing regarding the tax levy and an opportunity to file objection to
the amount of the tax levy. The hearing may be adjourned by the Council without further
notice to another date without further notice other than a motion to be entered upon
the minutes of its meeting fixing the time and place of its adjournment.
If a petition signed by at least 51% of the electors residing within the Special Service Area
and by at least 51% of the owners of record of the land included within the boundaries of
the Special Service Area is filed with the municipal clerk within 60 days following the final
adjournment of the public hearing, objecting to the amendment of the Special Service
District, for the additional levy and increase in the tax rate, no such district may be
amended, or tax may be levied, or imposed nor the rate increased.

COUNCIL LETTER
CITY OF GALESBURG
APRIL 17, 2023 (Tabled to May 1, 2023)
May 1, 2023 (Deferred to June 5, 2023)
June 5, 2023
AGENDA ITEM: Resolution authorizing the purchase of 435 E Third St.
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: A resolution to purchase the property located at 435 E Third
St. for $350,000 is provided for council consideration.
BACKGROUND: The Bible Center Church & Rescue Mission purchased a property on N Farnham
St in April 2022. Through a coordinated and planned effort, they managed to have construction
drawings completed and, in a few months, will complete renovations. Once they move into their
new facility, they will no longer need the property at 435 E Third St.
The City is interested in purchasing 435 E Third St and partnering with other agencies to provide
housing for the homeless population. During the previous two years the winter warming shelter
was held at the City's Hawthorne Gym and then at the Knox County Housing Authority's Moon
Towers, also in cooperation with the Salvation Army. The purchase of 435 E Third St will provide
a permanent location for a warming and/or homeless shelter in future years.
BUDGET IMPACT: The Economic Development Fund will be used to purchase the property.

Roll Call #1: Present: Mayor Peter Schwartzman, Council Members Bradley Hix, Wayne Dennis,
Kevin Wallace, Dwight White, Jaclyn Smith -Esters, Sarah Davis, and Larry Cox, 8. Also Present:
City Manager Gerald Smith (via Google Meet), City Clerk Kelli Bennewitz, Public Works Director
Wayne Carl, and Interim City Attorney Paul Mangieri.
Mayor Schwartzman called the meeting to order at 9:04 p.m.
The City Council convened into Executive Session for the purposes of discussing the
appointment, employment, compensation, discipline, performance, or dismissal of specific
employees 5 ILCS 120/2 (c) (1) and Approval of the August 15, August 17, August 24, September
6, and November 14, 2022, executive session minutes 5 ILCS 120/2 (c) (21).
Council Member Dennis moved, seconded by Council Member Smith -Esters, to approve the
minutes from the August 15, August 17, August 24, September 6, and November 14, 2022,
executive session meetings.
Roll Call #2:
Ayes: Council Members Hix, Dennis, Wallace, White, Smith -Esters, Davis, and Cox, 7.
Nays: None
Absent: None
Chairman declared motion carried.
City Manager Smith stated that the reason for the meeting tonight is directly related to the
EEOC complaint, with the concern that an investigation could result in the release of some prior
legal activity with the City. Part of those investigations could be problematic because it includes
allegations of racial and sexual discrimination, an overall hostile work environment and culture.
Some of these stem from exit interviews from previous employees.
He would like to elevate Director Carl's position to Public Works Director/Assistant City
Manager, and recruit a Deputy Public Works Director for the sole purpose of identifying a
qualified minority applicant. With Carl's retirement at the end of March, he would like approval
to begin the recruitment process.
Council Member Dennis left the meeting at 9:10 p.m.
He stated that in order to hire a Deputy, he would need the Council's authorization to establish
the position. He knows that the challenge will be trying to recruit for a Public Works Director
with Carl's level of expertise and experience. In order to make it more attractive for the salary
and the population of our community, he would like it to be a combined position. The City
Manager also stated that this position would introduce diversity to a higher level in the City.
Council Member Dennis returned to the meeting at 9:15 p.m.
December 5, 2022 Page 1 of 3
Back to Agenda
City Manager Smith stated that if approved to move forward, he would like to proceed with
recruitment this week and hopefully get the position filled in the next 60 days while Director
Carl is still here.
As far as the EEOC complaint, the City Manager stated that he would like to get out in front of it
and mitigate as much as possible. Introducing diversity into this upper management position
should help. The Mayor noted that the salary for the Public Works Director is already in the
budget; however, the salary for a Deputy Public Works Director has not been budgeted.
Council Member Wallace moved, seconded by Council Member Smith -Esters, to approve a
15-minute extension to the Regular Meeting.
Roll Call #3:
Ayes: Council Members Hix, Dennis, Wallace, White, Smith -Esters, Davis, and Cox, 7.
Nays: None
Absent: None
Chairman declared motion carried.
Council Member Smith -Esters stated that the City needs to be very transparent about this new
position and the upgrade of the Public Works Director to include an Assistant City Manager. It
was also noted that the salary range would be similar to the current salary at a Classification 33
or 34.
The Mayor called for a recess at 9:30 p.m.
The meeting resumed at 9:34 p.m.
Council Member White stated that the Council hired a City Manager to give direction and that
he knows what he's doing with these positions. He noted that Director Carl agrees with the
changes as well.
The Mayor asked for thoughts on the recommendations. The consensus was to allow the City
Manager to move forward with the recruitment process. Council Member Hix stated that he
was not in favor of the recommendation.
A motion was made by Council Member Cox, seconded by Council Member Smith -Esters, to
adjourn the Executive Session meeting at 9:38 p.m.

Human Resources Generalist Jessica Pease.
Mayor Schwartzman called the meeting to order at 5:33 p.m.
The City Council convened into Executive Session for the purposes of discussing the
appointment, employment, compensation, discipline, performance, or dismissal of specific
employees 5 ILCS 120/2(c)(1), and Approval of the December 5, 2022, executive session minutes
5 ILCS 120/2(c)(21).
City Clerk Bennewitz noted that the City Council had not yet received the December 5th
meeting minutes and asked that it be added to the next Executive Session agenda.
City Manager Smith stated that the City must remain competitive since many other employers
are able to offer greater compensation as well as work -life balance opportunities and work from
home options. He added that he would like to seek authorization to undertake a
comprehensive compensation study for the City to assess where pay ranges are within the
marketplace compared to other comparable communities.
He further stated that in a former community, a study was done and showed a 15-30% pay
disparity in many positions. Furthermore, he noted that the last study done in Galesburg was in
1988-1989.

Ms. Pease read the following wage increase recommendations for the Council from tonight's
agenda:
Upgrades the positions of:
• Bus Driver from (10 A) to (12 A)
• Handivan Driver from (7 A) to (11 A)
• Custodian I from (3 A) to (7 A)
Creates the positions of:
• IT Manager (26 EX)
• Senior Systems Administrator (26 EX)
• Junior Systems Administrator (22 EX)
• Administrative Services Manager (24 EX)
• Human Resources Manager (24 EX)
• Benefits & Risk Manager (24 EX)
• Relief Driver (12 A)
• Assistant City Manager & Public Works Director (33 EX)
• Assistant Public Works Director (32 EX)
Eliminates the positions of:
• IS Supervisor (24 EX)
• Network Administrator (22 EX)
• City Attorney/Administrative Services Director (34 EX)
• Executive Assistant (17 EX)
• Human Resources Generalist (19 EX)
• Benefits Coordinator (19 EX)
The City Manager explained that he would expect a salary study to take approximately 2-3
months, and comparable cities would obviously be used in the research. Council Member
Smith -Esters noted that possibly salary increases could be retroactive to January 1, 2023, if
warranted. City Manager Smith stated that a study is not the budget, but he would anticipate it
would cost around $20,000.
December 19, 2022 Page 2 of 3
Back to Agenda
Council Member Hix inquired about the last study and Council Member Cox, who was Public
Works Director at that time, stated that it was shelved.
It was noted that this study would be for exempt and non -represented employees. AFSCME,
Fire and Police positions fall under union contracts.
City Manager Smith noted that once the study is complete, it could show that some positions
are overpaid; however, no current positions would be decreased but instead simply keep up
with cost of living increases.
In light of this approval tonight and the morale of employees, it was discussed and suggested
that correspondence go out to all City staff making them aware that a salary study would be
forthcoming.
A motion was made by Council Member Smith-Esteres, seconded by Council Member Dennis, to
adjourn the Executive Session meeting and return to the Regular Meeting at 6:15 p.m.

COUNCIL LETTER
CITY OF GALESBURG
JUNE 5, 2023
AGENDA ITEM: Bid recommendation, purchase one new pumper apparatus for the Galesburg Fire
Department.
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: The Acting City Manager, Fire Chief, Fleet Superintendent, and
Purchasing Agent recommend that the City Council approve the purchase of a 2023 Alexis Spartan Fire
Engine from Alexis Fire Equipment in the amount of $622,917 with trade.
BACKGROUND: Galesburg Fire Department currently utilizes a 2007 Aerial Truck at Central Fire Station,
and it is nearing the end of its useful life. The purchase of new pumper apparatus will allow the aerial unit
to be placed in reserve status which will greatly extend its useful life. The cost to replace an aerial unit is
nearly two million dollars. Therefore, the Fire Department evaluated the front-line units and determined
a new pumper apparatus would better suit the department's needs when responding to the increasing
amount of calls each year. The unit being traded is a 2011 Spartan Pumper and has served its useful life
as a front-line apparatus and is in need of replacement.
In addition to being advertised in the local paper, a formal request for bid was made available on the city
website and emergency vehicle companies that have contacted the city in the past. As with many specialty
type pieces of equipment, a fire apparatus has a limited pool of vendors that make/distribute these units
across the United States. With that said, sales tend to be territorial. Further, the stringent inspection
process during the build of a new unit further reinforces regional sales due to travel costs.
One bid was received in response to the request from Alexis Fire Equipment. The bid from Alexis Fire
Equipment was for $652,917 and offered a $30,000 trade-in value for the 2011 Spartan Pumper. The new
unit will require approximately 425 calendar days to complete from the receipt of order. The bid offered
met the requirements listed in the bid specifications and will be most advantageous. City staff recommend
approval of this purchase.
BUDGET IMPACT: There are funds available in the Vehicle Replacement Fund (58) for this purchase.

This letter is a formal recommendation for a new venture called MOD Esthetics, LLC to receive $5,000 in support from
the City's startup assistance grant program. The project described below was reviewed by the KCAP Grant Review
Committee on Monday May 15th, 2023 and it received a recommendation from the Committee for funding.
Sarah Howerter is the owner of MOD Esthetics and is a former art teacher. The business will offer permanent makeup,
micro -shading, micro-blading and other related services. Permanent makeup is a growing industry, where clients' facial
features are tattooed in semi -permanent pigment (not tattoo ink). Sarah prides herself on creating natural looking
brows, lip blush colors and aesthetically -pleasing eyeliner choices. She has launched her new studio on Prairie St. in
Downtown Galesburg. She is planning in the future to add additional services targeted towards breast cancer survivors.
MOD Esthetics is seeking startup funds to assist with purchasing equipment and other necessities for the business.
The Knox County Area Partnership for Economic Development convened the Grant Review Committee to review this
application on Monday, May 15th and members of the Committee were provided with a complete business plan,
financials and other informational items to aid in their consideration. The Committee consists of area commercial
bankers, a small business owner and City staff. For this project, the Committee consisted of:
- Mike Holloway, F&M Bank
- Galesburg Mayor Peter Schwartzman
- Pippi Ardennia, small business owner
- Lance Oetting, Midwest Bank
- Zach Maher, First -Mid Bank and Trust
- Ken Springer, Knox County Area Partnership for Economic Development
By design, the Committee involves commercial lenders with years of experience in credit analysis and individuals who
have experience running small businesses. We feel that this expertise gives an added level of safety to the City when
making granting decisions.
In conclusion, the Committee voted to recommend to the Galesburg City Council that this grant application be given final
approval. The Committee felt that the risk profile for this request was appropriate for the intent of the program and that
the recipient met all of the application requirements.

This letter is a formal recommendation for a new venture called Greenlords Pharms, LLC to receive $10,000 in support
from the City's startup assistance grant program. The project described below was reviewed by the KCAP Grant Review
Committee on Monday May 15th, 2023 and it received a recommendation from the Committee for funding.
Greenlords Pharms is a new venture recently launched by Demarkius Medley Sr. and his son Demarkius Medley Jr. The
business has a two -fold strategy, the first of which will be assisted by the City's startup grant. Demarkius Medley Sr. is
already a licensed hemp grower with acreage on Monmouth Blvd. The proposed plan for Greenlords Pharms is to begin
processing organic hemp CBD oil into vaporizer cartridges. Initially, the business will purchase wholesale CBD oil, but
eventually the business could supply itself with its own hemp. Greenlords has identified a retail sales channel for these
products in Florida via a partnership with a chain of CDB stores. Long-term, Demarkius will utilize the revenues
generated by CBD processing to support Greenlords main business aim: aquaponics agriculture. City startup grant funds
will be utilized to purchase the cartridge -filling equipment and it is expected that this processing business can get up and
running fairly quickly. The Greenlords Pharms business plan calls for the creation of multiple positions by the end of
year 2, which will justify the award of the full $10,000 in startup grant funds.
The Knox County Area Partnership for Economic Development convened the Grant Review Committee to review Mr.
Medley's application on Monday, May 15th and members of the Committee were provided with a complete business
plan, financials and other informational items to aid in their consideration. The Committee consists of area commercial

COUNCIL LETTER
CITY OF GALESBURG
J U N E 5, 2023
AGENDA ITEM: Plat of dedication for a property located on Farnham Street.
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: The Acting City Manager/Director of Community
Development, and Interim Director of Public Works recommend approval of the plat of
dedication of right -of way for a property on Farnham Street.
BACKGROUND: The City was contacted by an adjacent property owner about purchasing a
City -owned property on N. Farnham Street. Currently, the parcel is split by Farnham Street, and
the property owner wishes to purchase the portion of the parcel on the south side of the street
only. To sell this portion of the property, it needed to be split into two tracts. Also, it was
discovered that a section of the public sidewalk was on the lot proposed to be sold. The City
had a plat of survey done splitting the parcel into two tracts, and removing the portion of the
public sidewalk from the tract proposed to be sold. The part of the parcel north of Farnham St.
is unusable for building on, so it will be dedicated as right-of-way along with the portion of city
sidewalk that is currently on the City -owned lot.
City staff recommends approval of the dedication of the right-of-way so that future
improvements can be made on the public infrastructure. If approved, the City will proceed with
selling the tract south of Farnham Street to the adjacent property owner.
BUDGET IMPACT: There would be no anticipated impact upon the budget if the dedication of
right-of-way is approved.
