City Manager’s Report
August 18, 2025
CONSENT AGENDA #2025-16
Item 25-6004 WIRC Membership
Staff recommend approval of continued membership with the Western Illinois Regional Council
(WIRC) at a cost of $15,997.20 for the period of July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2026. WIRC is a
regional technical assistance organization that provides grant writing and administration services
to local governments and serves as the Community Action Agency for this portion of the state.
WIRC is currently administering three active grants for the City totaling $1.55 million, which
include funding for housing rehabilitation, accessibility improvements, and HVAC replacements
in residential units. The organization will continue to assist City staff in carrying out these
programs and applying for future funding opportunities. The City has been a member of WIRC
since March 2020. Sufficient funds are budgeted in the UDAG Fund (Fund 26) for the membership
renewal.
Item 25-8015 Bills
Bills and advanced checks are submitted for approval. All purchases are made in accordance with
purchasing policies, with bids over $25,000.00 utilizing the competitive bid process and approved
individually by the City Council.
ORDINANCES AND RESOLUTIONS
BIDS, PETITIONS AND COMMUNICATIONS
Item 25-3023 Demolition of the Former Maple Avenue Fire Station (Tabled July 7, 2025,
Deferred July 21, 2025)
The bid of $55,700 submitted by Fowler Enterprises LLC for the demolition and cleanup of the
former Maple Avenue Fire Station, located at 647 Maple Avenue, is provided for council
consideration. The city-owned building, currently used for storage, is deteriorating and not
economically viable to repair. Four bids were received, with Fowler Enterprises, LLC, submitting
the low and best bid. There are sufficient funds available in the Property Redevelopment Fund.
Item 25-3034 Sealcoating of three (3) City Parking Lots
Staff recommend approval of a bid in the amount of $34,596.00 from Johnson Trucking &
Blacktopping for sealcoating of three City-owned parking lots. The work includes the application
of a double coat of emulsion sealer to City Parking Lot D at 125 S. Seminary Street, City Parking
Lot I at 460 Mulberry Street near the Amtrak Depot, and the Lake Storey Pavilion parking lot.
Due to the size of Lot D, only the north half will be sealed this year. The bid allows for full sealing
of the Pavilion lot while remaining within budget. Prior to sealcoating, City crews will complete
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Page 2 of 3
patching and crack sealing, and restriping will occur after the work is completed. The project was
advertised publicly, and two bids were received. Johnson Trucking & Blacktopping submitted the
lowest bid. Sufficient funds are budgeted in the City Gas Tax Fund (Fund 14) and Parks and
Recreation Fund (Fund 19).
Item 25-3035 Drilling Two Test Wells
Staff recommend approval of a bid from Grosch Irrigation Co., Inc. in the amount of $132,775.00
for the drilling of two test wells to evaluate alternative groundwater sources with lower PFAS
concentrations.
Staff propose drilling test wells in areas outside the floodplain where lower PFAS levels have been
observed, including one location on City-owned property and one on private land where prior
testing showed no PFAS detection. If successful, the sites may support development of new
production wells to reduce PFAS levels below the required threshold. Sufficient funds are
budgeted in the Water Fund for this work.
Item 25-3036 Construction of Pickleball Courts at Rotary Park
Staff recommend approval of a $547,618.92 bid from Illinois Civil Contractors Inc., East Peoria,
IL, for construction of eight new pickleball courts at Rotary Park, without lighting. The existing
courts at Bateman Park are in poor condition, and the project addresses growing community
demand for more facilities.
Five bids were received, with Illinois Civil Contractors submitting the lowest and best bid.
Construction is scheduled to begin in August 2025 and be completed by November 2025, weather
permitting. Sufficient funds are budgeted in the Community Improvements / Infrastructure Fund
(Fund 12) and Park and Recreation Fund (Fund 19).
Item 25-3037 Demolition of 173 Garfield Avenue
Staff recommend awarding the demolition contract for 173 Garfield Avenue to D&T Demolition
LLC of Galesburg, IL, in the amount of $19,710.00. The property has been placarded as
uninhabitable since November 2021, and in February 2025 the City obtained a court order for
demolition. Staff determined demolition is the most economical and safest solution.
The bid request was publicly advertised and sent to all known local demolition contractors. One
bid was received, which was reviewed and found reasonable based on project requirements. City
staff recommend approval to proceed as a public safety measure. Sufficient funds are available
in the Property Redevelopment Fund (Fund 23).
Item 25-3038 Park Maintenance Building Addition
Staff recommend that the City Council reject all bids received for the Park Maintenance Building
Addition project. The project was intended to expand the existing Park Maintenance Building
located near Bunker Links Golf Course.
Five bids were received; however, all submissions exceeded the estimated project budget. Due
to these budgetary constraints, staff recommend rebidding the project at a later date.

MISCELLANEOUS BUSINESS (Agreements, Approvals, Etc.)
Item 25-4049 Revolving Loan JPCD Holdings, LLC
The Knox County Area Partnership for Economic Development (KCAP) committee recommended
approval of a $100,000 city loan for JPCD Holdings, LLC to support Dante & Dory’s, a new pet care
business at 354 E. Main Street. The loan will help fund lift installation, self-wash facilities, and
freezers as part of a $366,600 project. Financing includes a bank loan of $230,000 and $36,600
in owner equity.
The loan terms are a 5-year note at 7.25% interest, with the bank refinancing after five years. The
business is expected to create multiple full- and part-time jobs with an estimated $200,000
annual payroll. The city’s loan will be secured by mortgages, business assets, and personal
guarantees. Funds will come from CDBG Fund 25.
Item 25-4050 Workers Compensation Settlement
Staff recommend approval of a settlement agreement resolving a pending workers’
compensation claim related to an injury sustained in January 2020. Under the agreement, Mr.
Simmons will receive $15,750.00 in exchange for a release of claims. Sufficient funds are
available in the Risk Management Fund (078).
Item 25-4051 Grant Agreement, YMCA Child & Teen Facility
Staff recommend approval of a grant agreement providing $900,000 in one-time funding to the
Knox County YMCA to support facility expansion at 1324 West Carl Sandburg Drive. The project
includes construction of a new childcare area and renovation of space for a teen room.
The YMCA operates two facilities in Galesburg and offers recreational, childcare, and after-school
programming. The $1.892 million expansion is fully planned and funded by the YMCA for long-
term operations. City funding will come from general obligation bond funds designated for
community center purposes.
This grant allows the City to meet part of its community center objectives—such as youth
programming and childcare—without incurring ongoing costs. The YMCA will be solely
responsible for future staffing, maintenance, and operations. Sufficient funds are budgeted in
the 2025 budget for this expense.

PUBLIC COMMENT
Sue Hulett, a member of the pickleball focus group, addressed the Council to express gratitude
for the City's decision to proceed with new outdoor pickleball courts at Rotary Park. She stated
that this expansion will not only serve the growing local pickleball community but also enable
Galesburg to host tournaments, attract visitors and generate revenue for the City. She
highlighted the group's role as a sounding board for the City Council and City Manger and they
appreciate the opportunity to participate in the process. She noted that they are disappointed
about the time taken for groundbreaking, but they are optimistic that the project would move
forward soon with completion next spring. The focus group strongly supports this investment,
viewing it as beneficial for the entire community.
Teresa Rash addressed the Council and stated that Galesburg lacks affordable recreational
options for youth and families. Currently, activities like golf, swimming, and tennis at Lakeside,
or the YMCA, have a cost. The City could contribute to community well-being by resurfacing the
Bateman pickleball courts and constructing new courts at Rotary Park. She feels that pickleball
encourages intergenerational play, offers a space for children to interact with friends, and helps
August 4, 2025 Page 1 of 7
the community connect. The proposed pickleball courts would be more than just a recreational
facility; they would be a valuable community asset that would provide long-term benefits.
Jenni Atwell addressed the Council and stated that she moved to Galesburg eight years ago and
teaches at King Elementary. Until recently, she struggled to find an active community here and
noted that in Alabama, where she moved from, she was very active, with workout and sports
friends. Pickleball has filled that void this summer for her and she has found a wonderful group
where she has made new friends. She added that it’s great to see so many young people, some
who might not be part of traditional sports teams, playing pickleball and enjoying each other's
company. She stated that she is grateful for the courts the City provides and thankful that the
Council is considering and planning to build new ones.
Jennette Chernin invited the Council to the NAACP Community Cookout on Saturday, August
9th, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Kiwanis Park. The event will offer free lunch to everyone, typically
served around 11:30 a.m. They will also be distributing 250 backpacks to K-12 students, an
increase from 150 last year. Each backpack will contain school supplies, as District 205 is not
providing them this year. She also acknowledged Council Member Acerra’s hard work in her
neighborhood, specifically concerning the house at 110 E. North Street. She noted that it looks
no different from two years ago and that there has been minimal effort to address its condition.
She hopes the Council has ideas on how to address this property.
Mindi Knapp addressed the issue of homelessness and was glad to see the pickleball focus
group present at the meeting since it would provide an opportunity to discuss important ideas
and resources. She feels that while their contributions are valuable, the community must
prioritize helping the community, especially given the City’s current financial needs. She stated
that there are over 400 empty homes in Galesburg but that people are still living on the streets,
and are being forced to remain unsheltered. She reiterated the need for more low-income,
affordable housing, in addition to utility services assistance. She believes the City needs to
focus on these pressing issues instead of pickleball courts.

CITY MANAGER’S REPORT
City Manager Hanson announced that tomorrow night, August 5th, National Night Out will be
held in Standish Park, 5-7 p.m. Police Chief Legate and his team, along with other City staff, the
Knox County Sheriff’s office, GHAS, and others will be participating. He also wanted to
acknowledge the outstanding work of the Fire Department with the MDA campaign. They have
consistently performed, and last year finished second only to Chicago in Illinois. He gave special
recognition to Firefighter TJ Scott, who leads this effort for the Department, and was recently
appointed as one of only 12 district directors nationwide to lead the MDA “Fill the Boot”
campaign. He reported that last year, the Department raised over $30,000, and since 1997, have
raised over $651,000 for MDA efforts. This event will be happening soon, and there will be an
update hosted by WGIL towards the end of the month or early September.
The City Manager noted that since it is road maintenance season, he asked Aaron Gavin, Public
Works Director, to report on the ongoing road projects so that Council and the public can be
informed.
Director Gavin reported that some upcoming street improvement projects will affect traffic flow
but promise significant enhancements. The intermittent resurfacing project is set to begin later
this week on Locust Street, between Knox and South Streets, near Lombard School. Initial work
will involve replacing sidewalks and curbs. This project will also include South Chambers and
Lincoln Park Drive, north of U.S. 34. The resurfacing is expected to occur in a couple of months,
following the completion of most concrete work. He added that roads will largely remain open,
but drivers should anticipate delays and watch for workers. Additionally, he announced that the
seal coat project will start in the next couple of weeks in the southeast portion of the City and
the Soangetaha neighborhood.
Director Gavin also noted that the Safe Routes to School project on Fifer Street near Silas
Willard School is scheduled to begin in the next week. This grant-funded initiative, a
collaboration with the School District, will take a few months to complete and will add new
sidewalks leading to the school. He ended by letting everyone know that the work on Simmons
Street is progressing well and remains on schedule. The project is expected to be mostly
complete by the end of September, with hopes of reopening the road and intersections at that
time.
Deputy Mayor Cheesman inquired about the road condition assessment instrument purchased
last year and how it prioritizes necessary work. Director Gavin stated that the City hired a
consultant to collect data on all City streets, sidewalks, and curb ramps. Staff received the road
condition data and now have access to all of this information in one location through specialized
software. This data allows the Department to develop five-year maintenance plans for City
streets and make informed decisions on road work.

CLOSING COMMENTS
Council Member Saul expressed his appreciation for the new shelter at the Dale Kelley Tot Lot.
He then noted the unfortunate weather for the Great Balloon Race this past weekend, and
extended a thank you to Philip Wolford at the Airport for allowing its use, and to Dave Lyons and
the Knights of Columbus for providing their location for the event. He also announced the
recent passing of Ruth Pecsi and shared that he grew up with her and her family at Trinity
Lutheran Church. Council Member Saul added that you never had to wonder what was on
Ruth’s mind, because she was happy to tell you.
Council Member Hix congratulated Connor Perez, an 11-year-old golfer, who recently won the
City's Junior All-Tournament for 10-12 year olds. This three-day tournament was held at Bunker
Links, Lake Bracken, and Soangetaha. He expressed thanks for the opportunity to volunteer for
the Great Balloon Race, specifically setting up balloons at the Airport, despite unfavorable
weather. He noted the significant turnout, particularly before Friday night's rain. He is
optimistic that Mother Nature will be more cooperative for next year's event.
August 4, 2025 Page 5 of 7
Council Member Hunigan commended the community for the excellent turnout on July 24th,
honoring Corporal Paul Eugene Hoots, a Galesburg native who died in the Korean War 75 years
ago. His remains were escorted by the VFW, the Fire and Police Departments, the Rolling
Thunder, Patriot Guard Riders, and many residents who lined the two-mile route to East
Linwood Cemetery. The funeral procession was lined with 600 large American flags, thanks to
many volunteers. Mayor Schwartzman also read a proclamation at the graveside service. He
thanked Council Member Saul, volunteers, and sponsors for The Great Balloon Race, which has
been held at Lake Storey since 2000. He also thanked Council Member Saul for the opportunity
to participate and hopes there is better weather next year. He acknowledged the large
attendance at the event, especially families and children, despite those conditions.
Council Member Hunigan also announced the upcoming NAACP Community Cookout on
Saturday, August 9th, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Kiwanis Park. This event will feature free food,
backpacks, free haircuts, and numerous games.
Council Member White congratulated and thanked Council Member Saul for a successful event
despite the weather and expressed new respect for the effort involved in handling the balloons.
He also thanked Director Gavin for the road work update and directed the public to the City’s
website's online resources, specifically the GIS maps, to find detailed information about the
road projects. Council Member White also announced the last Cooke Park event tomorrow,
Tuesday, August 5th, at 10 a.m. He encouraged attendees to bring their children, noting that
pizza would be served.
Council Member Acerra shared that with the recent passing of her mother-in-law, they have
inherited her dog, Bailey. This has led to more walks, prompting her to commend the City staff
for their excellent maintenance of parks, downtown planters, and landscaping, specifically Full
View Park. She stated that she will regret missing the NAACP picnic, an event she has enjoyed in
previous years, but that as a board member of WTVP, she would be in Peoria on Saturday
promoting the public television station. She emphasized the importance of supporting WTVP, as
it serves the Galesburg viewing area and has recently faced funding cuts.
Council Member Acerra acknowledged and appreciated those who advocated for pickleball at
tonight’s meeting. As a supporter of health and wellness, she believes pickleball is a valuable
intergenerational activity that encourages physical activity, helps children reduce screen time,
and fosters community engagement.
Deputy Mayor Cheesman addressed several topics from the meeting, and noted the City's
commitment to developing pickleball facilities. He also acknowledged that the homeless issue
is a work in progress and reported that the City is collaborating with other groups to improve
conditions. He encouraged individuals experiencing homelessness to utilize available resources,
including the City and Knox County Housing Authority facility on Iowa Court, as well as the
Rescue Mission. He also agreed that property upkeep is a high priority with the City and urged
residents to maintain their properties for safety and aesthetic appeal.
August 4, 2025 Page 6 of 7
Deputy Mayor Cheesman spoke about free activities for residents, noting the Heart & Soul
project brainstorming session where over 200 free activities were identified in our community.
While agreeing that some recreational items need to be improved upon, he encouraged people
to take advantage of these activities. He also extended a compliment to Bryan Fuller, supervisor
of the Street Department's asphalt division, and his crew for their poise, professionalism, and
expertise in handling a recent challenging road repair situation. He praised City employees who
demonstrate these qualities when interacting with the public during difficult circumstances.
Lastly, Deputy Mayor Cheesman announced Carl Sandburg College's welcome ceremony for
international students tomorrow, August 5th, led by individuals including Anthony Law,
Assistant Director of Student Support. He encouraged the community to welcome these
students and assist them in acclimating. He also noted the upcoming start of area schools and
the arrival of new students, urging citizens to offer support. He especially thanked John Pratts,
the ELA coordinator for the School District, who works with approximately 300 students and
their families, assisting them with English as a second language.
There being no further business, Council Member White moved, seconded by Council Member
Acerra, to adjourn the regular meeting at 6:49 p.m.

AGENDA ITEM: Bid Recommendation, demolition and clean-up of the former Maple Avenue
Fire Station located at 647 Maple Avenue in Galesburg, IL.
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: The bid of $55,700 submitted by Fowler Enterprises LLC for

Agenda Item Overview
August 18, 2025
AGENDA ITEM: Bid for sealing Parking Lots D, I, and the Lake Storey Pavilion parking lot.
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: The City Manager, Public Works Director, Parks and Recreation
Director and Purchasing Agent recommend approval of the bid in the amount of $34,596.00 from
Johnson Trucking & Blacktopping.
BACKGROUND: This contract requires the Contractor to apply a double coat of emulsion sealer
to the existing asphalt surface of City Parking Lot D located at 125 S. Seminary St. and City Parking
Lot I located at 460 Mulberry St. near the Amtrak Depot. It is also proposed to seal the Lake
Storey Pavilion parking lot. Sealing the existing asphalt surface helps to extend the life of the
pavement. Due to size of Parking Lot D, only the north half of the park lot will be sealed this year.
The City Street Division will do patching and crack sealing of the lots prior to the sealing as well
as the restriping of the parking lots after they are sealed.
The project was advertised in the Register Mail and on the City’s website. Four (4) bid proposals
were sent out to contractors that perform this type of work and two (2) bids were received. The
low bidder for the project was Johnson Trucking & Blacktopping in the amount of $27,081.00. Of
the bid total, $12,494.25 will be paid out of the City Gas Tax fund (Fund 14) for sealing parking
lots D and I. The original bid included only half of the Lake Storey Pavilion parking lot. The
submitted bid price allows the entire pavilion lot to be sealed and remain below the budgeted
amount for the project in the Parks and Recreation fund (Fund 19). It is recommended to approve
a revised total amount of $22,101.75 from the Park fund to seal the entire pavilion parking lot.
The total revised bid amount recommended for approval is $34,596.00. It is anticipated that the
work will take approximately one week to complete, and work will begin sometime in late August
or early September.
BUDGET IMPACT: There are sufficient funds budgeted for this work from the City Gas Tax fund
(Fund 14) and the Parks and Recreation fund (Fund 19).

Agenda Item Overview
August 18, 2025
AGENDA ITEM: Bids for two test wells in Oquawka.
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: The City Manager, Director of Public Works, Water
Superintendent and Purchasing Agent recommend approval of the bid for two test wells from
Grosche Irrigation Co., Inc. in the amount of $132,775.00.
BACKGROUND: The City was notified by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA) in
2021 of the presence of PFAS in the City’s water supply in Oquawka. In response, City staff
followed the draft guidelines issued by the IEPA which included regular quarterly testing for PFAS
and prioritizing use of wells that were lower in PFAS concentration. At that time, the City also
hired a consulting firm to complete a pilot study to identify potential treatment options and their
costs. In 2024, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued a final ruling establishing
legally enforceable levels for six PFAS found in drinking water. In March of this year, the IEPA
adopted the EPA’s ruling for Maximum Contaminant Levels (MCL’s) allowed in drinking water and
gave water suppliers until 2029 to reduce levels of PFAS in drinking water below the MCL that
was set. The City’s water supply tested above the MCL for PFOA, one of the six regulated PFAS.
The current PFOA level in Galesburg’s water is 5.9 parts per trillion (ppt) and the established MCL
is 4.0 ppt.
The results of the pilot study showed that treatment options would be expensive to implement
and increase annual operating costs at the treatment plant significantly. As a result, it is intended
to first explore other options for reducing PFAS levels below the MCL set by the IEPA. One of the
options to explore is drilling new wells in locations that may have lower levels of PFAS. Through
the ongoing quarterly testing of the City’s existing wells, staff have identified that some have
lower levels of PFAS than others and that it may be tied to their location relevant to the river and
the floodplain. There are currently a total of 6 gravel pack wells and one Ranney well. Gravel
pack wells numbers 1 through 5 and the Ranney well are closer to the Mississippi River and in the
floodplain. Gravel pack 6 is the newest well and is furthest from the river and out of the
floodplain. Gravel pack wells 1, 2, and 3 have the highest levels of PFAS and are no longer in use.
Gravel pack wells 4 and 5 and the Ranney well have lower levels of PFAS, but still exceed the MCL
and are used to supplement gravel pack well 6. Gravel pack well 6 runs continuously as it has
shown through testing to have little to no PFAS and alone is below the MCL set by the IEPA.
25-3035
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Prepared by: AJG Page 2 of 2
It is proposed to drill two test wells that are out of the floodplain and nearer to the water
treatment plant where gravel pack 6 is located. One test well will be located just north of the
plant and gravel pack 6 on City-owned property. The City received permission from a nearby
property owner to drill an additional test well on private property to the east of the water
treatment plant and even further from the floodplain and the Mississippi River. Previous tests of
irrigation wells on the property showed no detection of PFAS in the water. The test wells will
determine whether these locations will produce an adequate supply of water and whether they
meet all required water quality requirements, including for levels of PFAS. If those criteria are
both met, the City could design and construct permanent wells in those locations and put them
into production to reduce the City’s PFAS levels below the MCL set by the IEPA.
Four contractors submitted bids for the work, with the lowest bid being from Grosch Irrigation
Co. Inc. of Mason City, IL in the amount of $132,775.00. If approved, the contractor would be
required to complete the work no later than October 17, 2025. City staff recommend approval
of the bid.
BUDGET IMPACT: There are sufficient funds budgeted in the Water fund for this work.

City Council Meeting
Agenda Item Overview
August 18, 2025
AGENDA ITEM: Bid recommendation for construction of Rotary Park Pickleball Courts.
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: The City Manager, Director of Parks and Recreation, Director
of Public Works, and Purchasing Agent recommend approval of the bid in the amount of
$547,618.92 from Illinois Civil Contractors Inc, East Peoria, IL.
BACKGROUND: The City currently maintains six pickleball courts located in Bateman Park.
While these courts are heavily utilized, they are full of cracks and in poor condition resulting in
inadequate playing surfaces. The pickleball sport has increased in popularity over the last few
years and additional courts were deemed necessary to accommodate the growing number of
pickleball enthusiasts in the area. Rotary Park located on the west side of the city was determined
the most suitable site for the new courts.
The base bid issued for the pickleball courts included six courts with traditional reinforced
concrete surfacing, a sports lighting package, exterior and interior fencing, bullpen with player
benches and landscaping.
In addition to the base bid, there were five alternate bids included in the request. Alternate 1
included the cost of labor and material to install two additional traditional reinforced concrete
courts. Alternate 2 excluded the cost of labor and materials to furnish and install sport lighting.
Alternate 3 included the cost of labor and materials to utilize post-tension concrete on six
pickleball courts in lieu of traditional reinforced concrete. Alternate 4 included the cost of labor
and material to install two additional pickleball courts using post tension concrete in lieu of
traditional reinforced concrete, and alternate 5 included the cost of labor and materials to furnish
and install sound barrier protection on the east side perimeter fencing of the pickleball courts.
The project was advertised in the Register Mail, and on the City’s website. Bid proposals were
also emailed to contractors who perform this type of work. A total of five (5) bids were received.
The low and best bid was submitted by Illinois Civil Contractors Inc with a base bid of $570,000.
City staff have determined alternates 1 and 2 will be selected for this project, which will add two
additional traditional concrete courts for a total of eight courts and will also remove the sports
lighting package. The selection of alternate 1 increases the base bid amount by $96,568.92, and
25-3036
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Prepared by: TDM Page 2 of 2
the selection of alternate 2 decreases the base bid amount by $118,950 for total bid amount of
$547,618.92.
Staff determined that the additional sound barrier protection offered in alternate 5 was not
economically feasible and the landscaping included in the base bid may be an effective solution
addressing the concerns of the neighboring community. If additional sound barriers are
necessary after the construction of the pickleball courts, the barriers would be purchased and
installed by city staff.
City staff have reviewed the bid and recommend approval of this project. It is anticipated that
the project will begin in August 2025 with a completion date of November 2025, weather
permitting.
BUDGET IMPACT: Sufficient funds are available in the Community Improvements / Infrastructure
Fund (12) and the Park and Recreation Fund (19).

Agenda Item Overview
August 18, 2025
AGENDA ITEM: Revolving loan with JPCD Holdings, LLC and Dante & Dory’s, LLC, 354 E Main St.
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: On July 17, 2025 the Knox County Area Partnership for
Economic Development (KCAP) Revolving Loan Review Committee met to review the request and
have recommended approval, with an abstention from the participating lender.
BACKGROUND: JPCD Holdings, LLC is owned 100% by Candace D’Agnolo and was established in
2018 as a real estate holding company. Candace and her husband, Joseph Palermo, purchased
the former Dollar General building at 354 E. Main Street in August 2021 and the building has
remained vacant since that time. The property will house Dante & Dory’s, LLC, a new full-service
pet care business offering pet supplies, grooming, self-wash facilities, boarding, and other
amenities for pet owners across Knox County.
The requested city funds will be used toward a future phase of the project, which includes lift
installation, self-wash area (tubs, washer/dryer, water heater) and freezers. The total estimated
cost of this portion of the project is $366,600. The bank will provide $230,000 (63%), Owner
equity of $36,600 (10%) and city loan of $100,000 (27%).
The city loan terms would be a 5 year note, amortized over 10 years at 7.25% fixed; first 3 months
interest-only; F&M Bank will refinance (“buy out”) the City’s loan at 5 years.
It is anticipated the business will create a full-time Facility Director, Inventory & Analysis Manager
and 1-2 Sales Associates, as well as 3-4 part-time sales associates. The annual payroll of these
positions is estimated to be $200,000.
If approved, the city will take a junior mortgage position on three properties, 2nd position UCC on
all business assets, personal guarantees from Ms. D’Agnolo and Mr. Palermo and a corporate
guarantee from Pet Boss Nation, LLC. Pet Boss Nation, LLC was founded by Ms. D’Agnolo and has
a proven track record of successfully starting, scaling, and selling pet-related businesses.
BUDGET IMPACT: If approved, the $100,000 loan will be paid from CDBG Fund 25.

3.Loan Agreement
Thursday, July 25, 2025
Honorable Members of the Galesburg City Council,
This letter is a formal recommendation to approve the City of Galesburg Downtown Gap Loan to JPCD
Holdings (operating as Dante & Dory’s) for the start-up launch of Dante & Dory’s: A Pet Destination
business at 354 E Main Street. JPCD Holdings is requesting $100,000 in city revolving loan funds as part of
a larger $366,600 financing project in partnership with F&M Bank.
The Knox County Area Partnership for Economic Development convened a meeting of our internal
Revolving Loan Fund Review Committee on July 17th, 2025, to review the proposed loan. The Committee
unanimously voted to recommend the approval of this loan to the Galesburg City Council with an
abstention from the participating lender.
By design, the City’s loan rate and terms match what is being offered by the private lender involved. The
City note will be $100,000 for 5 years amortized over 10 years at a fixed rate of 7.25% with the first three
months being interest only. F&M Bank will take out the City’s portion of the loan at the five-year mark.
The City’s funds would be allocated to equipment expenses related to the project. This includes a lift
installation expense $25,000, the self-wash area $50,000 (tubs, dryers, washer and dryer, water heater)
and the freezers and for fresh inventory estimated at $25,000.
Candace D'Agnolo and husband, Joseph Palermo established JPCD Holdings, LLC in 2018 to act as a real
estate holding company and is owned 100% by Candace D'Agnolo. Candace and Joseph
purchased the building located at 354 E Main St in Galesburg in August of 2021. The building (formerly a
Dollar General) will be the location of a new pet care business named Dante & Dory's: A Pet Destination.
The new business will aim to provide sound and reliable pet care for residents of Galesburg as well as
residents from all over Knox County. It will feature pet supplies and offer pet grooming, self-wash
facilities, pet boarding and many other amenities for pet owners.
The new business will employ a Facility Director, an Inventory & Analysis Manager, 1-2 full-time Sales
Associates, and 3-4 part-time Sales Associates and will offer pet supplies, pet grooming, self-wash

The funding for the JPSD revolving loan will come from existing City Economic Development funds. By
design, KCAP’s RLF Loan Review Committee consists of commercial bankers with years of lending

Agenda Item Overview
August 18, 2025
AGENDA ITEM: Settlement Agreement Simmons v. Galesburg
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: The City Manager and the City Attorney for Work Comp
recommend approval of the settlement agreement.
BACKGROUND: This Settlement Agreement resolves the pending workers’ compensation case
of Mr. Simmons related to an injury sustained in January, 2020. In exchange for a release of
claims, Mr. Simmons will be compensated $15,750.00.
BUDGET IMPACT: Sufficient funds are available in the Risk Management Fund (078)
SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS:
1.Settlement Agreement
25-4050
E-IC5 Page 2 of 4
Disputed Disputed
Notes regarding temporary total disability benefits:
MEDICAL EXPENSES: The employer has not paid all medical bills. List unpaid bills in the space below.
The parties agree that all medical bills Respondent agrees to pay have been paid prior to
the approval of the contracts. Any and all additional bills and associated liens are disputed
and denied and are Petitioner’s responsibility.
PREVIOUS AGREEMENTS: Before the petitioner signed an Attorney Representation Agreement, the respondent or its agent offered
in writing to pay the petitioner $ NA as compensation for the permanent disability caused by this injury.
An arbitrator or commissioner of the Commission previously made an award on this case on NA regarding
TTD $ NA Permanent disability $ NA Medical expenses $ NA Other $ NA
TERMS OF SETTLEMENT: Attach a recent medical report signed by the physician who examined or treated the employee.
Since a serious dispute exists, Respondent offers and Petitioner agrees to accept the lump sum settlement amount of
$15,750.00, which represents 5% MAW pursuant to Section 8(d)(2) of the Illinois Workers’ Compensation Act. This
contract represents full and final settlement of any and all claims for compensation, TTD, and medical, surgical, and
hospital expenses, and any other expenses, past, present, and future, known or unknown, arising out of the alleged
work-related accident described herein. This contract further represents full and final settlement of any and all claims
as the result of any aggravation, exacerbation, sequalae, or residual effect of the foregoing accident up through and
including the date on which this contract is approved. Petitioner further agrees that this settlement resolves any and all
claims for injuries alleged to have occurred arising out of and in the course of Petitioner's employment with
Respondent up to and including the date the contract is approved for the alleged body part, including any claim for
subsequent aggravation. The parties agree that all medical bills Respondent agrees to pay have been paid prior to the
approval of the contract. Any and all additional bills and associated liens are disputed and denied and are Petitioner’s
responsibility. Petitioner acknowledges that any and all liens or potential liens against this settlement, including those
involving Medicare, Medicaid, the Internal Revenue Service, healthcare providers, health insurance providers or
carriers, and child support enforcement, IDHS or otherwise, have been revealed to Respondent and are Petitioner's
sole responsibility to resolve out of the lump sum settlement amount. Respondent is not aware of any attempt by the
group carrier to seek reimbursement. Petitioner and Respondent further agree to waive the provisions of Section 8(a)
and 19(h) of the Act, those provisions being the right of future medical and right of review. Petitioner represents that
Petitioner has not applied for and is not currently receiving Medicare or SSDI. Respondent reserves all rights of
reimbursement provided under Section 5(b) of the Act and this settlement agreement is not a waiver of Respondent's
Section 5(b) rights.
The parties agree Respondent is not responsible for any future medical treatment, Medicare covered or otherwise,
following this settlement as Petitioner has been released from care. The parties have considered Medicare's interests
in this settlement and have determined that an allocation for future Medicare covered expenses is not required
pursuant to the policy and procedure established by the CMS Memoranda to protect Medicare's interests, as required
by the Medicare Secondary Payer Statute, and for reasons set forth below. At the time of this settlement, Petitioner is
neither on nor eligible for either Social Security Disability or Medicare and Petitioner is not reasonably expected to
become eligible for either Social Security Disability or Medicare within the next thirty (30) months. Based upon reports
of Petitioner’s current health care providers, his treating physicians have placed Petitioner at MMI with no indication for
further medical treatment as a consequence of the alleged work injury. There are no future Medicare covered
treatments or prescriptions prescribed or reasonably expected related to the injuries in this claim; therefore, no
allocation is required or being established. Regardless, it is not the intention of Petitioner, Respondent, or
Respondent’s Carrier in this case to shift the responsibility for paying future medical expenses related to Petitioner’s
alleged injuries to the Federal Government. The parties have considered and protected Medicare’s interests in this
case. However, this settlement does not meet the current criteria for review and approval by the Centers for Medicare
E-IC5 Page 3 of 4
and Medicaid Services.
Petitioner acknowledges that Petitioner understands that if Petitioner has received any benefits, at any time, known or
unknown, from Medicare or Medicaid for any injuries or conditions, related or not to Petitioner's alleged accident,
Petitioner must contact Medicare/Medicaid to resolve any lien or claim Medicare/Medicaid might have against the
proceeds of this settlement. Petitioner understands that should future treatments related to this injury become
necessary and CMS (Medicare) finds that a Medicare Set-aside Allocation was required and that Medicare's interests
were not adequately protected, CMS (Medicare) may require Petitioner to expend up to the entire settlement amount
on Medicare covered expenses related to the injury before Medicare will provide coverage for the injury. Petitioner
voluntarily accepts this risk and waives any claims against Respondent and Carrier should Medicare take such action,
including, but not limited to a Private Cause of Action against Respondent/Carrier under the Medicare Secondary
Payer Act (MSP) pursuant to 42 USC §1395y(b)(3)(A).
Total amount of settlement $15,750.00
Deduction: Attorney's fees
Deduction: Petitioner's costs
Deduction: Other (explain)$0.00
Amount employee will receive $15,750.00
PETITIONER’S SIGNATURE. Attention, petitioner. Do not sign this contract unless you understand all of the following statements.
I have read this document, understand its terms, and sign this contract voluntarily. I believe it is in my best interests for the Commission to
approve this contract. I understand that I can present this settlement contract to the Commission in person. I understand that by signing
this contract, I am giving up the following rights unless expressly reserved or left open for a specified period of time in the terms of
settlement:
1. My right to a trial before an arbitrator;
2. My right to appeal the arbitrator's decision to the Commission;
3. My right to any further medical treatment, at the employer's expense, except as otherwise provided herein, for the results of this
injury;

Agenda Item Overview
August 18, 2025
AGENDA ITEM: Grant agreement with the YMCA for a one-time grant of $900,000 to be used
exclusively for the construction of a childcare area and renovation of a teen room.
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: The City Manager recommends approval of the grant
agreement with the YMCA.
BACKGROUND: The Knox County YMCA operates two recreational facilities in Galesburg, the
Knox County Family YMCA at 1324 West Carl Sandburg Drive, and the Downtown Galesburg
YMCA located at 200 East Main Street, which offer recreational amenities such as a pool, gym,
fitness center, walking track, and more. In addition to maintenance and operation of the facilities,
the YMCA staffs a wide variety of recreational programming and classes for all ages, as well as
before and after school programming, and childcare services.
The YMCA is currently embarking on $1.892 million project to expand their facility located at
1324 West Carl Sandburg Drive through construction of a new childcare area, and renovation of
an existing space for a teen room. The YMCA has raised funds towards accomplishment of this
expansion and accounted for the future ongoing costs of staffing and programming. The attached
grant agreement provides for a one-time grant of $900,000 to the Knox County YMCA. This
funding is specifically designated for the construction of a new childcare area and the renovation
of an existing space into a teen center.
The City will fund the agreement with a portion of the general obligation bond funds authorized
for the costs of acquisition, construction, or renovation of an existing facility for the purpose of a
community center. Many ideas regarding the scope and breadth of a community center were
discussed, including, but not limited to, a hub for community engagement and social interactions,
a recreation center, a youth and teen center, a senior center, recreational and educational
programming, after-school programming and childcare services, and a center for social services
and assistance programs. This project provides the opportunity for the City to utilize a portion of
the bond funds for fulfilling a portion of the desired community center scope, without incurring
long-term financial obligations. The YMCA is responsible for all ongoing costs, including staffing,
maintenance, and operation of the new and renovated facilities.
BUDGET IMPACT: Sufficient funds are available in the 2025 budget for the proposed expense.

written notice specifying the nature of the Default. The Grantee shall have thirty (30) calendar days
from the date of such notice to cure the Default to the reasonable satisfaction of the City. If the
Default is not reasonably capable of being cured within thirty (30) days, the Grantee shall, within that
period, commence actions to cure and diligently pursue such cure to completion within a reasonable
time as determined by the City.

(c) Initiate legal action to enforce the terms of this Agreement or recover damages;
