Public Hearings
Item 7.A. Public Hearing on an Annexation Agreement with BBig Solar, LLC, for Property Generally Located at the Western Terminus of Lutz Road, Part of PIN: 21-20-100-006, as requested by the Development Services Department.
Mayor Mwilambwe opened the public hearing at 6:18 P.M.
Billy Tyus, Senior Deputy City Manager, explained that both annexation items could have occurred in the county, but the City chose to pursue annexation to best control development and secure future right-of-ways.
Kelly Pfeifer, Development Services Director, noted that the two public hearings were for the same parcel with different contract purchasers. She shared that the current hearing involved a solar facility on a long, narrow parcel at the western terminus of Lutz Road. She explained that the area was not currently served by water and sewer, and that the developer would work with the City to ensure proper road access during different seasons. She noted that no one had spoken in opposition to the Item when the Planning Commission held its Public Hearing.
Mayor Mwilambwe asked if anyone would like to testify for or against the Item. No one came forward.
Mayor Mwilambwe closed the public hearing at 6:21 P.M.
Item 7.B. Public Hearing on an Annexation Agreement with Trinity Lutheran Church for Property Generally Located at the Northwestern Terminus of Lutz Road, Part of PIN: 21-20-100- 006, as requested by the Development Services Department.
Mayor Mwilambwe opened the public hearing at 6:21 P.M.
Kelly Pfeifer, Development Services Director, explained that the northern portion of the parcel was under contract to be purchased by Trinity Lutheran Church with the intention of using the land for water detention when they expanded their campus in the future. She noted that there were no immediate plans for the land, and that the annexation agreement would defer all normal activities until a planned use was determined. She noted that the Planning Commission unanimously forwarded it with a positive recommendation to Council.
Mayor Mwilambwe asked if anyone would like to testify for or against the Item. No one came forward.
Mayor Mwilambwe closed the public hearing at 6:23 P.M.
Item 7.C. Public Hearing for the Fiscal Year 2026 Proposed Budget, as requested by the Finance Department.
Mayor Mwilambwe opened the public hearing at 6:23 P.M.
Billy Tyus, Sr. Deputy City Manager, explained that the public hearing was part of the budget process, and that Finance Director Scott Rathman would provide a brief presentation on the financial plan for the next year.
Director Rathbun noted that the City Code required a public hearing prior to the adoption of the final budget, and that he had previously presented a lengthy preview to Council and the public on February 17, 2025, and March 10, 2025. He explained that there had been no changes to the overall budget totals since his last presentation with a Citywide budget of $318 million, a general fund of $137 million, and capital projects totaling $81 million. Director Rathbun highlighted that 63% of the budget, or nearly $200 million, was dedicated to areas directly impacting residents including capital infrastructure, public safety, and utility operating. He emphasized the importance of providing context and perspective to budget numbers.
Mayor Mwilambwe opened the floor for testimony.
Jackie Beyer, after being sworn, addressed Council and recognized Director Rathbun and his staff for their hard work on the Fiscal Year 2026 Budget. She also thanked Council for voting to keep the tax levy flat. She suggested there was a correlation between significant increases in property tax bills and significant increases in rent and that the correlation potentially contributed
to the local homeless population. Ms. Byer argued that the cycle of increasing property tax bills leads to higher housing costs, which could put more people on the streets requiring further increases in property taxes. She questioned City expenditures like branded merchandise and suggested the City consider selling one of its three golf courses to generate revenue and potentially provide for housing development or economic expansion opportunities.
No other further testimony was received.
Mayor Mwilambwe closed the public hearing at 6:31 P.M.

Item 9.A. Consideration and Action on a Resolution Approving an Agreement with Northwater, LLC, for Planktonic Algae Treatment, in the Amount of $215,366.27, as requested by the Water Department.
Ed Andrews, Water Director, began by highlighting the City's webpage for safe water, which included a Consumer Confidence Report and access to the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) Drinking Water Watch. He provided an update on lake levels, showing Lake Evergreen had been steady and Lake Bloomington was rebounding, noting both lakes were below normal pool elevations. Director Andrews discussed water quality testing mentioning staff
were now engaging two different labs and obtaining their own testing machine to get quicker turnaround times. He noted their removal efficiency for algae treatment continued to be favorable with the addition of Powdered Activated Carbon (“PAC”) essentially doubling their removal efficiency on Granular Activated Carbon (“GAC”) capped filters.
Council Member Ward, Director Andrews and Joe Darter, Water Property Manager, discussed algae and various approaches to addressing it.
Council Member Mosley inquired with Director Andrews about training and the delays associated to the new water testing equipment They also discussed microcystin, an algae byproduct that increases with algae growth.
Council Member Becker, Mayor Mwilambwe, and Director Andrews then talked about the need for multiple rounds of treatment to address the algae issue and get a noticeable difference in taste.
Mayor Mwilambwe asked how the City would stay ahead of an algae bloom event in the future. Director Andrews explained that future prevention would involve a permanent PAC system for treating rising levels and budgeting for algaecide treatments in the lakes, with ongoing weekly monitoring to stay ahead of potential taste and odor issues.
Council Member Ward made a motion, seconded by Council Member Hendricks, to approve the Item as presented.
Mayor Mwilambwe directed the Clerk to call roll:
AYES: Kearns, Mosley, Montney, Danenberger, Becker, Hendricks, Ward, Lee, Crumpler Motion carried.

The following Item was presented:
Item 9.B. Consideration and Action on a Resolution Authorizing Waiving the Technical Bidding Requirements, and Authorizing City Staff to Negotiate an Agreement with Rowe Construction, A Division of United Contractors Midwest, for the FY 2026 General Street Resurfacing Program, as requested by the Engineering Department.
Deputy City Manager Sue McLaughlin introduced and congratulated Jim Karch on becoming the permanent Director of Engineering, praising him and his staff for their work on the resurfacing program with a limited budget and funds.
Jim Karch, Engineering Director, discussed significant increases in construction costs over the last decade noting that the cost per square foot for sidewalks had more than doubled from $6.40 to $13.25. He explained that rising costs impacted the amount of work they could complete and had significantly affected projects like Fox Creek and Hamilton Road requiring more Motor Fuel Tax (“MFT”) funds. He highlighted how other communities were able to use MFT dollars for maintenance, but that the City had to allocate MFT funds to larger capital projects. He stated that to address this challenge, the City had established a dedicated Asphalt and Concrete Fund, which Council had supported.
Council Member Ward raised concerns about the Street Condition Rating Map and questioned why there was little street work planned for the Westside. Director Karch explained that the lack of work was primarily due to the Water Department's need to address lead service lines, and that they wanted to avoid digging up newly resurfaced roads. He assured her that the Engineering and Water Departments would partner together in FY2027 and FY2028 to address street work in the area coordinating with water line replacements.
Council Member Montney inquired about the total square footage of the 489 sidewalk complaints and the complexity of the repairs. Director Karch confirmed that they had created work orders for each complaint and sorted them by their specific issues. She suggested the City consider purchasing its own sidewalk grinder to reduce lead times and costs.
Deputy City Manager McLaughlin noted staff were working to explore different tree species that would cause less damage to sidewalks, and were currently collaborating with IDOT on Route 51 to replace trees in a way that prevents sidewalk obstruction.
Council Member Crumpler made a motion, seconded by Council Member Hendricks, to approve the Item as presented.
Mayor Mwilambwe directed the Clerk to call roll:
AYES: Kearns, Mosley, Montney, Danenberger, Becker, Hendricks, Ward, Lee, Crumpler Motion carried.

Finance Director’s Report
Scott Rathbun, Finance Director, reviewed the February financial summary noting the City was 83% through the fiscal year and highlighting underperformance in major tax revenues, particularly in Personal Property Replacement Tax (PPRT) and state sales tax. He discussed the impact of legislative changes on local use tax and home rule revenues explaining how the budget had been adjusted to account for the shifts. He provided an overview of the general fund pointing out overages in salaries and benefits, and reductions in commodities and utilities. He
emphasized the importance of the Utility Payment Assistance Program for low-income residents.
Council Member Ward confirmed with Director Rathbun that the City’s golf courses generated enough revenue to cover their operational costs, but that they typically required subsidies for equipment and capital projects.
City Manager’s Discussion
Sr. Deputy City Manager Tyus celebrated the Community Impact & Enhancement Department for organizing a successful Housing Resource Fair that attracted over 300 people. He also recognized police officers and firefighters for their recent Guns & Hoses hockey game, which raised $30,000 for Special Olympics and was attended by approximately 1,400 people.
