Tentative Minutes of the Ogle County Liquor Commission Meeting

April 19, 2016

Call Meeting to Order Chairman Gouker calls the meeting to order at 4:00 p.m. Present: Chairman Kim Gouker, John Finfrock and Greg Sparrow. Others: States Attorney Eric Morrow, County Clerk and Recorder Laura J. Cook and Deputy Clerk Jennifer Albright. Approval of Minutes: April 21, 2015 and June 16, 2015 Mr. Sparrow moves to approve the Liquor Commission Meeting minutes of April 21, 2015 and June 16, 2015. Motion seconded by Mr. Finfrock. Motion carries. New Business: Review and Approve 2016 – 2017 Ogle County Liquor Licenses Mr. Finfrock confirms that Edgewood Golf Club II is reapplying for their license. Laura Cook stated Grubsteakers is the one license has not been paid as the business owner is still waiting to open after reconstruction from damage caused by the tornado in April 2015. When the restaurant opens the license fees will be prorated by the month, not by the day. Mr. Finfrock asked if background checks are run on the renewal applicants, those who currently hold an Ogle County liquor license, and, as stated by Laura Cook, currently there is no verbiage contained within the renewal application to allow the county to perform background checks on the applicants. Discussion followed. Mr. Finfrock asked SA Morrow to review the background check policy on renewal applicants that other counties follow. Potentially the renewal application would need to be modified to include such verbiage to allow for background checks to be performed. SA Morrow stated that currently there is an applicant who has a pending felony charge against them, but since they are not convicted of this charge the Liquor Commission cannot take any action.

Agency Reports: From now on the Agencies will send a report to the Recording Secretary after the meeting regarding what is happening in their agency. Lynn Knodle of Serenity Hospice and Home – Lynn Knodle reported as follows:

• The Shed has scheduled several art/craft workshops, taught by area

artists/crafters. The individuals who participate in these sessions pay a small fee for their supplies and get to take their craft home. The first session had 14 people in attendance. We continue to reach more individuals in the community than anticipated. In addition to bereaved, the center services, Veterans, adults who are lonely, and those just wanting to give back to their community.

• Cathy was asked to help at Sinnissippi with their substance abuse support groups every couple of months. The facilitator said that many of their clients have unresolved grief issues and thought she might be able to help.

• Support groups are going well even with the cold weather.

• Another successful Angel Ball was held in December with proceeds in excess of $7000 benefitting VOP and Serenity Hospice and Home.

• Received many nice donations and many items from our wish list during the holidays.

• Continue to work with the Rochelle Area Community Foundation to determine how area nonprofits can collaborate to best meet the needs of our communities.

• We continue to be busy at the Serenity Home. In 2015, our average daily census for the home increased from 3 in 2014 to 5 in 2015. Our average daily census in the community increased from 55 to 58.

• Due to our continued growth we have added an additional social worker. She began her employment in Mid-January.

• Did a presentation to the Byron Rotary on The Shed and the VOP Baling program?

Patti Mook of Easter Seals Children’s Development Center – Patti Mook reported as follows: Helped with the toy distribution through Earth Angels in Mt. Morris. Over 300 families received our Easter Seals brochure along with the 708 brochure. We received 8 food baskets that were distributed to families in Ogle County; 5 in Byron and 3 at the toy distribution. We hosted a Christmas party complete with Santa Claus. 11 people from Ogle County attended. One of the families that attended from Byron expressed an interest in adopting a child with special needs. We made a referral to CHASI which specializes in foster care for children with special needs. The Rochelle Parent Group did a bowling social in January. We continue to also support the Rochelle Parent Group at their monthly meetings. They meet the first Monday of each month at Changes Counseling Center in Rochelle. We are co-hosting a bullying prevention training with Florissa Pediatric Development Center in Dixon on February 23, 6:00-8:00 PM with a meet and greet at 5:30. Family Matters will be providing the training. Patrick Phelan of Sinnissippi Centers, Inc – Sinnissippi Centers Report to the Ogle County Mental Health Board February 4, 2016

• The state budget situation continues to be very problematic for SCI. At this time, we have approximately $1.6 million in outstanding receivables, largely for Department of Human Services grants. Medicaid payments are coming in a timely fashion. State fiscal concerns have also led to additional losses in funding, most recently with Lee County being forced to terminate their Redeploy Illinois grant due to lack of payment. This will cost SCI approximately $40,000/year. From everything we have heard, the outlook for FY ’17 is even more dim, with additional cuts and loss of programs a high probability.

• SCI has been asked to consider taking over school based programming terminated by LSSI (in Rock Falls and Dixon). We are currently considering how resources might be allocated to meet those needs.

• We will soon begin the provision of Adolescent Intensive Outpatient groups for youth in Ogle County in partnership with Focus House.

• SCI is also beginning to provide enhanced services for transition-age youth in Ogle County as a result of a federal grant applied for by the Illinois Department of Alcohol and Substance Abuse. SCI is one of 4 pilot sites in the state for this initiative.

• The CTC program will be holding its inaugural “Ugly Prom” on February 20 at the Elks Club in Dixon.

• Larry Prindaville is retiring after 44 years of service at SCI. A reception will be held on February 12, at 2:00 at the Route 2 Sinnissippi location. A second reception will occur that same night at 5:00 at the Brandywine on Route 2 in Dixon.

Jeremy Hooker of Lutheran Social Services of Illinois – LSSI has experienced a significant reduction in programs and workforce. A letter had been received regarding program closures, and confusion existed about what programs were funded by the board, and if they had been eliminated. An explanation was provided of the programs that were still functioning, and a notification was provided that a full list of program closures and additional details are available on the agency website, www.lssi.org The board informed LSSI that there had been a lot of information in the press about the closures, and it had indicated the entire Nachusa site was closed. It was recommended that LSSI provide a letter to the board about the current status of 708 funded programs, and that letters also be provided as a “letter to the editor” of the three Ogle county newspapers. LSSI agreed to provide a letter. A financial report was provided to the board on the three funded program, LEAD, CCBYS, IPS. Two of the programs are receiving payments from the state, however CCBYS (Youth Services) has received no general revenue payments since July 1st. Ruth Carter Director of Hope – Ruth Carter reported that HOPE of Ogle County had begun to receive state IDHS funds in January. Ruth reported how the SOS Campaign generated additional calls to state leaders and legislatures which she believed were helpful to help pass through Domestic Violence funding. We will continue to be conservative in our approach to next fiscal year’s funding and the possibilities of state cuts. HOPE provided shelter to 28 people though the month of January. 15 of the shelter clients were children. HOPE served over 30 families through the “adopt a family” program this December. Serenity Hospice and Home adopted two families this year as well as provided additional donations of shelter supplies and silent auction revenue. We are thankful for all those who contributed items for clients as well as financial donations through the holiday season.

The Rochelle Police Department held an Active Shooter training for HOPE staff this week. Staff learned additional response tactics as well as safety strategies.

This Saturday the 6th is the From the Heart Gala in Rochelle. Four social service agencies are the recipients of this gala each year. Ruth encouraged anyone person who was interested in attending to let her know and there was some time to register. Shining Star is one of the recipients of the gala this year and HOPE will be one next year.

Brion Brooks of the Village of Progress – Brion Brooks reported that the Village of Progress, Inc. is working on starting up a local retail bakery in Oregon. The bakery would be run as a nonprofit and operate as a part of the Village. The aim – to provide employment and job training to men and women in the community with cognitive impairments. It’s hoped, if the project does launch, that the Village would work closely with OCEC to provide internships and training for transition age students.

VOP held its annual Christmas Wish List with the most successful response ever. Donations will help purchase needed items in the Village.

The Village Attendance Grant program continues to grow, with over $7,000 contributed by individual donors during the Christmas season alone. Grants now help over a dozen men and women attend the Village on at least a part time basis.

The Village is planning a bicycle ride this fall as a fundraiser. TOSOC (Tour Of Scenic Ogle County) will provide three routes of different lengths, followed by a BBQ lunch and dessert.

The annual Christmas Party was a big hit again this year, with appearances by several musicians and Santa himself.

There being no objection the meeting was adjourned.

i. Motor Vehicle Policy ii. Drug Policy

• Tuition Reimbursement – County Clerk & Recorder Laura J. Cook and Treasurer John Coffman concur to have this removed as it is not in the budget.

• Incident Report: There was discussion about it not being included in the draft of the new Personnel Policy manual. Strahl states this manual only applies to employees of the Ogle County. It was stated the Department Heads need to refer to the Safety Manual that was adopted by the County Board.

• Complaint Form: To be used by a county employee to turn into the proper authority either the supervisor or Department Head.

· · · ·· really relied on those folks.··And when they·1·· · · ·· said, How would you like the building, he said,·2·· · · ·· I thought about here.··They said, That's a·3·· · · ·· beautiful place, we'll put there.·4·· · · · · · · And the place where it currently rests is·5·· · · ·· about approximately 8 feet off the lot line·6·· · · ·· instead of 15 feet off the lot line.·7·· · · ·· Fortunately for Mr. Hall, the building is not·8·· · · ·· attached to the ground, and it doesn't have any·9·· · · ·· footings.··It's on --10·· · · · · · · MR. HALL:··Blocks.11·· · · · · · · MS. AUGSBURGER:··-- blocks right now.··And12·· · · ·· if the Board is not inclined to grant a Variance13·· · · ·· as to the lot line, he is lining up people to14·· · · ·· move the building.··It won't be easy, but it can15·· · · ·· be done and it won't require things to be16·· · · ·· disassembled.··So that -- moving the building17·· · · ·· isn't so much of a problem.18·· · · · · · · The backdoor neighbor, Bev Diehl, has told19·· · · ·· Mr. Hall that she really doesn't have a problem20·· · · ·· with the building, and she actually thinks it21·· · · ·· looks pretty nice.22·· · · · · · · Where the building is located, if you have23·· · · ·· driven by there, there's a lot of brush and24·· · · · · · · · · In Totidem Verbis, LLC (ITV)· ·

Page 10

· · · ·· small, sapling-style trees that run all along·1·· · · ·· there.··When the trees are leafed out, the·2·· · · ·· building won't be very visible to Mrs. Diehl·3·· · · ·· from her side of the property.·4·· · · · · · · Mr. Hall has taken it upon himself also to·5·· · · ·· talk to other people in the neighborhood to find·6·· · · ·· out if any of them had specific objections,·7·· · · ·· because he wants to be a good neighbor.··He's·8·· · · ·· lived there for 30 years, and he's a hard·9·· · · ·· worker, and everybody who lives in his10·· · · ·· neighborhood are hard workers and they all like11·· · · ·· to get along.12·· · · · · · · Mr. Chuck Pfoutz across the fence said13·· · · ·· that he doesn't have a problem with the14·· · · ·· building.··And, in fact, he wanted to know where15·· · · ·· Mr. Hall bought it, because he'd like to get one16·· · · ·· himself.··Mr. Hall has also talked to Leon17·· · · ·· Farster, another neighbor who said he didn't18·· · · ·· have a problem with the building.··Chuck and19·· · · ·· Barb -- I don't know how to say their last name.20·· · · · · · · MR.

· · · ·· area, had a glance at the building and said he·1·· · · ·· didn't have a problem with it.·2·· · · · · · · Now, obviously all of these people don't·3·· · · ·· have the authority to grant zoning variances.··I·4·· · · ·· offer their comments so that you can see the·5·· · · ·· building in and of itself is not an eyesore,·6·· · · ·· it's not an atrocious design, it's not ugly,·7·· · · ·· it's not bizarrely painted, it doesn't have·8·· · · ·· weird appurtenances or anything on it.··It's·9·· · · ·· just a regular, standard building that is very10·· · · ·· similar, in fact, to outbuildings and accessory11·· · · ·· buildings of many of the folks in that12·· · · ·· neighborhood.··So it fits the character of the13·· · · ·· neighborhood.··It's just, one unfortunate thing,14·· · · ·· too close to the lot line.15·· · · · · · · The other unfortunate thing is it's a16·· · · ·· little bit too big.··And with all due respect to17·· · · ·· Mr. Reibel, we think it's -- it doesn't bring us18·· · · ·· quite as much over the lot allowance as his19·· · · ·· numbers.··He comes up with 117 square feet over20·· · · ·· the lot variance -- or, excuse me, over the lot21·· · · ·· allowance.··And the lot -- 3 percent of the lot22·· · · ·· size is 522.72 feet, and this building is 32023·· · · ·· square feet.··So that -- I thought when I went24·· · · · · · · · · In Totidem Verbis, LLC (ITV)· ·

Page 12

· · · ·· to law school I wasn't going to have to do math·1·· · · ·· anymore, but I have since found out that's not·2·· · · ·· true.·3·· · · · · · · MR. REIBEL:··You do have to deduct the·4·· · · ·· existing buildings from that.·5·· · · · · · · MS. AUGSBURGER:··So that building is 320·6·· · · ·· square feet.··The garage that's there is kind of·7·· · · ·· an odd, little garage, and a portion of the·8·· · · ·· garage is 10 by 18, which is 180 feet.··Another·9·· · · ·· portion of the garage is 7 by 13, which is 9110·· · · ·· feet.··So the garage proper is 271 feet.··It11·· · · ·· does have a ragtag lean-to that adds another,12·· · · ·· what, about --13·· · · · · · · MR. HALL:··20.14·· · · · · · · MS. AUGSBURGER:··-- about another 20 to 2515·· · · ·· square feet.··Mr. Hall is in the process of16·· · · ·· tearing that lean-to -- it's falling down17·· · · ·· anyway, and he's tearing it off.18·· · · · · · · There's also a little auxiliary building19·· · · ·· on skids, and it's in the lot -- the little20·· · · ·· drawing of the property.··If you look at the21·· · · ·· drawing of the property, the existing garage is22·· · · ·· up in the corner, and it's not actually a23·· · · ·· square.··It's actually -- a portion of it is24·· · · · · · · · · In Totidem Verbis, LLC (ITV)· ·

· · · ·· 10 by 18, and the other portion is 7 by 13.··And·1·· · · ·· then across the back is that lean-to that's·2·· · · ·· coming down.·3·· · · · · · · Then the little shed that's indicated·4·· · · ·· there is not a permanent thing.··It's one of·5·· · · ·· those little sheds on skids.··And Mr. Hall's dad·6·· · · ·· dropped it off at the property without asking·7·· · · ·· him if he wanted it, and he really does want to·8·· · · ·· get rid of that little shed.··We aren't really·9·· · · ·· sure if the square footage of that shed was10·· · · ·· included in the accessory building square11·· · · ·· footage or not, but if it was, he's already12·· · · ·· getting rid of that building.··And if he can't13·· · · ·· sell it, he'll either tear it apart and recycle14·· · · ·· the materials, or he'll tow it to some other15·· · · ·· relative's yard and say, You deal with it, which16·· · · ·· is what was done to him.17·· · · · · · · We think that once that building is gone18·· · · ·· and the lean-to is taken off the garage, we're a19·· · · ·· little bit more like 75 to 90 feet over the20·· · · ·· square footage.··And we're asking for a Variance21·· · · ·· on that for this very specific reason:··If you22·· · · ·· look at the house, you'll see the house is a23·· · · ·· little, little, teeny, tiny house.··It is 1524·· · · · · · · · · In Totidem Verbis, LLC (ITV)· ·

Page 14

· · · ·· feet by 35 feet, and that includes a 15-by-5·1·· · · ·· foot porch.··Okay.··So including the porch, the·2·· · · ·· house is -- has a footprint of 525 square feet.·3·· · · ·· Very small.··The first floor of the house is 450·4·· · · ·· square feet, and there's a half-story which is a·5·· · · ·· bedroom, about a 12 by 12 bedroom.·6·· · · · · · · The house is quite old.··It dates back to·7·· · · ·· probably the mid-1800s.··And a local lore has·8·· · · ·· that it was the home of John Deere's first·9·· · · ·· blacksmith.··The cellar is a limestone-type10·· · · ·· cellar, and it does provide storage but it11·· · · ·· doesn't provide living space.12·· · · · · · · The regular house -- and it's about the13·· · · ·· size of a house trailer, a very, very small14·· · · ·· house trailer, or a very large camping trailer,15·· · · ·· if you want to look at it that way.16·· · · · · · · And in the years it has been sitting there17·· · · ·· in that location, it hasn't just served as a18·· · · ·· house, it's also served, as I say, as the home19·· · · ·· of John Deere's first blacksmith, we think,20·· · · ·· subject to verification by local historians'21·· · · ·· reports, but it's also been a bar, a restaurant,22·· · · ·· and stories have it that it was even maybe a23·· · · ·· brothel at one time.··For the last 30 years,24·· · · · · · · · · In Totidem Verbis, LLC (ITV)· ·

Page 15

· · · ·· however, it's been the much-beloved home of·1·· · · ·· Mr. Hall, and over the years he's been slowly·2·· · · ·· working on improving the interior of it, because·3·· · · ·· it's a pretty old place.·4·· · · · · · · I say he's been working on it very slowly,·5·· · · ·· because he does work 55 hours a week as a welder·6·· · · ·· at Etynre, so that doesn't leave a lot of time·7·· · · ·· for working on his house.··But because the house·8·· · · ·· is so very small, it doesn't have very much·9·· · · ·· interior place to store the home improvement10·· · · ·· supplies and materials, and really no place at11·· · · ·· all to put the living room furniture if the12·· · · ·· living room is the room that he's working on, or13·· · · ·· if it's the dining/kitchen area, there's no14·· · · ·· place to shift the dining room table, or if he15·· · · ·· wants to be upstairs in the bedroom, there's16·· · · ·· nowhere to put the bedroom furniture.17·· · · · · · · So that is the main reason why he18·· · · ·· purchased this building, is so he could store19·· · · ·· his home improvement supplies and a room full of20·· · · ·· furniture at a time as he's improving his house.21·· · · · · · · He probably got a little bit carried away22·· · · ·· in buying this size of building, because while23·· · · ·· he was meeting with the representatives of the24·· · · · · · · · · In Totidem Verbis, LLC (ITV)· ·

Page 16

· · · ·· company who sold him the building, they kept·1·· · · ·· trying to get him to buy a bigger building, and·2·· · · ·· they were very good salesmen.··They sold him a·3·· · · ·· lovely, big building that's put him in trouble·4·· · · ·· with the Zoning Board and, fortunately, hasn't·5·· · · ·· caused any problems with his neighbors, but it·6·· · · ·· has put him in the situation where he spent·7·· · · ·· $6900 for a building that's too big, and he's·8·· · · ·· not going to get his money back from that·9·· · · ·· company.10·· · · · · · · If he has to sell the building, he'll do11·· · · ·· so at a loss and he'll buy a smaller building12·· · · ·· that will put him within the appropriate square13·· · · ·· footage footprint on his lot.··But we're asking14·· · · ·· the Board to consider actually permitting him to15·· · · ·· keep that size building, with the understanding16·· · · ·· that he will get rid of the small shed and he17·· · · ·· will finish tearing off the lean-to off of his18·· · · ·· garage.19·· · · · · · · So he will be in excess of his 525.72 feet20·· · · ·· probably in the neighborhood of about 72 to 9021·· · · ·· feet.··We really need to go there with a22·· · · ·· measuring tape to be very precise about it, but23·· · · ·· I don't know -- parsing out a few feet doesn't24·· · · · · · · · · In Totidem Verbis, LLC (ITV)· ·

· · · ·· really matter.··It's really up to the Board if·1·· · · ·· they would permit him to exceed that amount.·2·· · · · · · · The other question is if the Board would·3·· · · ·· permit him to leave the building where it is or·4·· · · ·· if the Board would prefer that he move it.··He·5·· · · ·· and I have conferred, and it will not impinge on·6·· · · ·· his drainage area for his septic field if he has·7·· · · ·· to move it.··I know that's frequently a concern·8·· · · ·· when buildings like this come up.··He wants very·9·· · · ·· much to be a good neighbor, and he doesn't want10·· · · ·· to cause problems for the Board or the folks in11·· · · ·· Grand Detour.12·· · · · · · · We'll abide by the Board's decision, of13·· · · ·· course, and we do think that because of the very14·· · · ·· tiny size of this house, that puts him a little15·· · · ·· bit in the stance of being a landowner whose16·· · · ·· land is what's more burdened by the accessory17·· · · ·· building square footage than some of the other18·· · · ·· houses/lots in this area, because most of the19·· · · ·· other houses in his neighborhood are more than20·· · · ·· twice the size of his house, so they have more21·· · · ·· storage, they have bigger basements and they22·· · · ·· have bigger upstairs.··He doesn't have that, and23·· · · ·· so this shed is living space; it's really24·· · · · · · · · · In Totidem Verbis, LLC (ITV)· ·

· · · ·· storage and useful space for him.·1·· · · · · · · Thank you.·2·· · · · · · · MR.

Page 19

· · · · · · · MR. OCKEN:··But, I mean, the building·1·· · · ·· itself, does it have some type of --·2·· · · · · · · MR. HALL:··Yeah, it's got 4-by-4 skidders.·3·· · · · · · · MR. OCKEN:··Okay.··Does the Board have any·4·· · · ·· questions?·5·· · · · · · · MR. CONSIDINE:··I just had a question for·6·· · · ·· you.·7·· · · · · · · MR. OCKEN:··Yes.·8·· · · · · · · MR. CONSIDINE:··So, I guess, this first·9·· · · ·· standard that we're going to go over, is there a10·· · · ·· way we can -- I just -- because they just said11·· · · ·· that they're not -- that they could move it if12·· · · ·· they had to.··The first standard says that they13·· · · ·· can't move it based on the septic.··So I just14·· · · ·· have -- it contradicts itself.15·· · · · · · · MR. OCKEN:··Well, when I looked at the16·· · · ·· site, it looked like once you get to the south17·· · · ·· of where the building is located, then does your18·· · · ·· lot start to slope there?19·· · · · · · · MR. HALL:··Yeah, it goes down.20·· · · · · · · MR. OCKEN:··Because as I looked at it, it21·· · · ·· looks like where it was sitting it was fairly22·· · · ·· level back there.23·· · · · · · · MS. AUGSBURGER:··That's why he picked it24·· · · · · · · · · In Totidem Verbis, LLC (ITV)· ·

Page 20

· · · ·· in the first place, is it's really the most·1·· · · ·· level area of his lot.··So when he says he could·2·· · · ·· move it, physically, yes, the building can be·3·· · · ·· moved and he won't have to go to a huge expense.·4·· · · ·· It will cost some money to move it and certainly·5·· · · ·· the good will of a lot of good friends who are·6·· · · ·· going to haul it.··But he's going to have to do·7·· · · ·· more to prepare the location for it, and he·8·· · · ·· really hasn't gotten estimates of how much that·9·· · · ·· would be.··Because his feeling was, If I get to10·· · · ·· leave it there, I'm going to be really glad.··If11·· · · ·· I have to move it, I have to move it and then12·· · · ·· that's what I'll do.13·· · · · · · · MR. OCKEN:··So that would be to move it --14·· · · ·· what would we have to move, 7 feet?15·· · · · · · · MS. AUGSBURGER:··7 feet south -- sort of16·· · · ·· southwest.17·· · · · · · · MR.

· · · ·· that.··But it does slope to the south of that.·1·· · · · · · · MS. AUGSBURGER:··It's really unfortunate·2·· · · ·· that that company, the folks who came there,·3·· · · ·· were so blithely willing to ignore ordinances,·4·· · · ·· because they surely cannot be ignorant of this.·5·· · · ·· These buildings -- and this is not the biggest·6·· · · ·· building they sell.··They sell buildings·7·· · · ·· considerably larger than that, 40 feet by·8·· · · ·· whatever, and so you know that that's got to·9·· · · ·· cause some concern at various places when10·· · · ·· they're putting them down.11·· · · · · · · And so certainly homeowners need to be12·· · · ·· leery of things like that, but not everyone is13·· · · ·· as sophisticated.··And sometimes when people are14·· · · ·· dealing with clever professional salespersons,15·· · · ·· the enthusiasm and the good smiles and -- of the16·· · · ·· salesperson and the beauty of the building17·· · · ·· itself overcomes us a little bit and we maybe18·· · · ·· don't exercise the caution that we ought to.19·· · · · · · · MR.

OCKEN:··And tell us why you're11·· · · ·· requesting a Variance.12·· · · · · · · MS. MAYER:··The reason we're asking for13·· · · ·· this Variance is because I want to build an14·· · · ·· addition to my attached garage, and it needs to15·· · · ·· be built on the west side rather than the north16·· · · ·· side.··I'll explain why.··It would be a great17·· · · ·· hardship if we had to build it on the north18·· · · ·· side, which we wouldn't do.··From the north19·· · · ·· point to the south point of my property line,20·· · · ·· the ground drops 22 feet.··North of that,21·· · · ·· there's a house and the ground drops more than22·· · · ·· mine does.··It's steeper.··North of that,23·· · · ·· there's a farm field.24·· · · · · · · · · In Totidem Verbis, LLC (ITV)· ·

Page 7

· · · · · · · When we get a good amount of rain, it·1·· · · ·· comes out of the field, through the neighbor·2·· · · ·· lady's property, down through my property.··It·3·· · · ·· comes about 6 to 7 feet from my garage, and then·4·· · · ·· it turns, goes around my house.··We could not·5·· · · ·· build this addition with the water conditions.·6·· · · ·· And if you had to change the lay of the land, it·7·· · · ·· would be extremely expensive to get, you know,·8·· · · ·· heavy equipment and move the dirt and this and·9·· · · ·· that, and it would just be a terrible hardship.10·· · · · · · · So we would like to just build this 15 by11·· · · ·· 12 storage area on the back of the garage, and12·· · · ·· we'd like to be, you know, granted a Variance so13·· · · ·· that we don't have to be 30 feet away from the14·· · · ·· lot line.15·· · · · · · · As far as the lot line goes, that16·· · · ·· property -- I have lived at this address for 4017·· · · ·· years.··That property is just idle acres.18·· · · ·· It's -- it just sits there.··I don't even think19·· · · ·· it's big enough to build a house on.··So I20·· · · ·· believe that if my storage area was only 17 feet21·· · · ·· from the lot line, it wouldn't affect a thing.22·· · · · · · · MR.

MILBY:··The particular property we're·4·· · · ·· talking about with Bockers', there's an existing·5·· · · ·· 30,000-gallon anhydrous ammonia plant that is·6·· · · ·· sitting on the property.··We would like to add a·7·· · · ·· 54,000-gallon ammonia storage plant north of·8·· · · ·· where the existing one is.··The reason for it is·9·· · · ·· with Barnacopia being so close, we would like to10·· · · ·· sit 1,000 feet north of where the Barnacopia is.11·· · · · · · · If you open up your book to Page No. 1, if12·· · · ·· you see the -- I have got a red rectangle area13·· · · ·· here.··The southern edge of the red rectangle14·· · · ·· area represents a thousand feet from where the15·· · · ·· Barnacopia exists.··On this picture you can't16·· · · ·· see the Barnacopia, but it's between -- I guess17·· · · ·· you can.18·· · · · · · · MR.

· · · ·· above a thousand feet north.·1·· · · · · · · The new standards for putting in an·2·· · · ·· anhydrous ammonia facility by the State·3·· · · ·· represent that if you're by a public place, they·4·· · · ·· would like to see you put it at least a thousand·5·· · · ·· feet.··This meets that recommendation.·6·· · · · · · · Also, if there ever were a northerly·7·· · · ·· breeze and there was a leak, the buildings, the·8·· · · ·· existing buildings, dissipate things.··So it's·9·· · · ·· definitely for safety, is why we're going to do10·· · · ·· that.11·· · · · · · · When we do install this 54,000-gallon12·· · · ·· anhydrous ammonia tank, the existing 30,000 that13·· · · ·· sits on the property will be discontinued after14·· · · ·· we get ours operating, if you grant it.15·· · · · · · · MR.

OCKEN:··Oh, okay.·8·· · · · · · · MR. MILBY:··Okay.··The other reason that I·9·· · · ·· put this book together for, is I'd like to show10·· · · ·· you the differences -- I mean, if we were to go11·· · · ·· with a new tank, go to Page -- about 3 or 4,12·· · · ·· you'll see a shiny page like this (indicating).13·· · · ·· If we were to purchase a brand new tank, and it14·· · · ·· would be 60,000 -- we're putting in a15·· · · ·· 54,000-gallon tank.··So if we did a16·· · · ·· 60,000-gallon tank, if you look over here to the17·· · · ·· side, you'll see that if we were to purchase a18·· · · ·· new one that was 130 inches IDE, it's about19·· · · ·· three-quarters of an inch thick, is what the20·· · · ·· metal shell would be.··And if you look at the21·· · · ·· next column down and see what the head space22·· · · ·· would be, like, the moulded heads, it's about23·· · · ·· 0.4 inches in diameter.24·· · · · · · · · · In Totidem Verbis, LLC (ITV)· ·

· · · · · · · Okay.··This next page that looks like·1·· · · ·· this, typewriting, is a U1A report.··And what·2·· · · ·· this is, is anytime that a pressure vessel is·3·· · · ·· made, a certificate is made or manufactured.·4·· · · ·· And you'll see about three-quarters of the way·5·· · · ·· down here, it shows that the shell thickness --·6·· · · ·· Item No. 6, shows that the shell thickness of·7·· · · ·· this tank is an inch and three-eighths thick.·8·· · · ·· Also, if you go down a couple more items, you'll·9·· · · ·· see that the ends of the tank are also an inch10·· · · ·· and three-eighths thick.11·· · · · · · · And a new tank, like the first page I12·· · · ·· showed you, the ends are stress relief.13·· · · ·· Whenever you take metal and you bend it, they14·· · · ·· heat-stress it to relieve the stress because you15·· · · ·· manipulated it.··This tank that we're putting16·· · · ·· in, according to this UA1 report, the whole17·· · · ·· vessel has been stress released.··These tanks18·· · · ·· were built in 1978, and they were built in19·· · · ·· accordance to the Corps of Engineers.20·· · · · · · · Four of these tanks were put in a barge,21·· · · ·· and they had chlorine in them, and so they're22·· · · ·· going to be on the river.··So the Corps of23·· · · ·· Engineers made sure that these tanks would no24·· · · · · · · · · In Totidem Verbis, LLC (ITV)· ·

· · · ·· the country today, you have a tank put in place,·1·· · · ·· they drop plumbing underneath the ground, and·2·· · · ·· they run it over just because of space.··It·3·· · · ·· allows you to be able to put risers, you know,·4·· · · ·· you can put them in more confined spaces.·5·· · · · · · · Our idea is that we're going to be able to·6·· · · ·· come out, and we're going to look at these --·7·· · · ·· these pipes will be exposed where you can see if·8·· · · ·· there's any problems; therefore, they can be·9·· · · ·· painted.··The new regulations call that you've10·· · · ·· got to either put them in a cement trough, which11·· · · ·· I don't like the idea of that because you still12·· · · ·· got a lot of water and you've got a lot of13·· · · ·· debris that you're dealing with.··We're going to14·· · · ·· put them up on ground where we can see what's15·· · · ·· going on.16·· · · · · · · If you do put them in-ground, you are17·· · · ·· allowed to put them underground, but then you've18·· · · ·· got to dig them up every five years to inspect19·· · · ·· and make sure there's no leaks.··So we're20·· · · ·· eliminating that by putting it on the concrete21·· · · ·· pad.22·· · · · · · · Also, the next page shows you these little23·· · · ·· black pipes that are sticking around.··One of24·· · · · · · · · · In Totidem Verbis, LLC (ITV)· ·

Page 15

· · · ·· the regulations will be that you have to have a·1·· · · ·· way that if a truck or vehicle gets close to a·2·· · · ·· tank, it has to stop the vehicle from colliding·3·· · · ·· into the tank.··So that's another safety·4·· · · ·· regulation.·5·· · · · · · · Next page shows you -- like, where the big·6·· · · ·· valve is, it shows you this little yellow·7·· · · ·· device.··That's an emergency shutoff valve.··And·8·· · · ·· what's that designed to do -- and we have always·9·· · · ·· had this in the LP industry, which I don't know10·· · · ·· why it took so long for anhydrous to adapt this11·· · · ·· little measure, but what that allows us to do12·· · · ·· from the tank is, you can put an emergency13·· · · ·· shutoff valve so if there was a leak from the14·· · · ·· tank towards the -- to the loading risers, you15·· · · ·· can electronically shut it off from a different16·· · · ·· spot, not having to go up and actually manually17·· · · ·· turn the valve off, which is a very nice safe18·· · · ·· feature.19·· · · · · · · The other -- the next page down shows you20·· · · ·· a -- which is where a truck transport would21·· · · ·· unload into the storage tank.··The idea of this22·· · · ·· -- it's called a bulkhead and it's buried in the23·· · · ·· concrete.··So the idea of this is that you --24·· · · · · · · · · In Totidem Verbis, LLC (ITV)· ·

· · · ·· when you hook up a semi to it, if they, for some·1·· · · ·· reason, would take off and leave the hoses·2·· · · ·· attached, number one, it would rip the hoses off·3·· · · ·· and not destroy the plumbing under the tanks.··A·4·· · · ·· lot of the facilities that are out there today,·5·· · · ·· we just run pipes out the side, and if a truck·6·· · · ·· took off with that hose connected, it would·7·· · · ·· actually destroy the plumbing underneath the·8·· · · ·· tank.··So this would have all the safety·9·· · · ·· features that are entered into by the State and10·· · · ·· also federal guidelines.11·· · · · · · · That's all I have.··Do you have any12·· · · ·· questions of me?13·· · · · · · · MR.

· · · ·· just to draw the line.··They have an arrangement·1·· · · ·· where they get to use that lane and we can use·2·· · · ·· that lane, but we are actually going to go north·3·· · · ·· of that up to the dark area.··So you know how·4·· · · ·· that drainage ditch goes underneath the road·5·· · · ·· there, we're actually going to be north of that,·6·· · · ·· is where our entrance is.··And your concept plan·7·· · · ·· should show that.·8·· · · · · · · On the concept plan, it shows to the·9·· · · ·· north, and all the dark, grayed-in area shows10·· · · ·· the gravel area.··And what that allows us to be11·· · · ·· able to do -- what it allows us to be able to12·· · · ·· do, is it allows -- like, the loading pad will13·· · · ·· be closest to the east, and if there are people14·· · · ·· there loading, it will allow a semi to be able15·· · · ·· to drive to the north, or if they're loading on16·· · · ·· the south, it will allow them to go around to17·· · · ·· the south, and the trucks will unload on the18·· · · ·· west end of the drawing.··Therefore, when they19·· · · ·· get done, there's enough room that they can make20·· · · ·· a loop around and come back out whether they're21·· · · ·· on the south unloading or whether they're on the22·· · · ·· north unloading, and that's why the grayed-in23·· · · ·· area has so much gravel there.24·· · · · · · · · · In Totidem Verbis, LLC (ITV)· ·

Page 18

· · · · · · · MR. OCKEN:··Okay.··So that gray area will·1·· · · ·· be all gravel?·2·· · · · · · · MR. MILBY:··Correct.··Correct.··What -- as·3·· · · ·· we pointed out, the rest of that area was farm·4·· · · ·· ground, and what Bockers intend to do, is they·5·· · · ·· intend to level that area.··So to the west, you·6·· · · ·· will actually have a bank coming down like this·7·· · · ·· (indicating), and at the western edge toward the·8·· · · ·· east there will probably be a bank and then it·9·· · · ·· will slowly feather out to nothing, and then it10·· · · ·· will be grassed down.··And everything else in11·· · · ·· that area that is not gravel will end up being12·· · · ·· grass, so it will be taken from farm ground down13·· · · ·· to grass.14·· · · · · · · And we do have Wendler Engineering on this15·· · · ·· as far as being able to look at it, because we16·· · · ·· realize that we have to have drainage in order17·· · · ·· to be able to get a building permit, and that is18·· · · ·· in the process.19·· · · · · · · MR.

· · · ·· Route 26.··So that's not an issue.··But, again,·1·· · · ·· I have hardly ever been in a situation where·2·· · · ·· we're actually putting ammonia on a field and·3·· · · ·· the roads are posted, because if the farmer lets·4·· · · ·· us on his ground, then usually that means the·5·· · · ·· frost is out of the ground and generally that·6·· · · ·· means that the roads are unposted.·7·· · · · · · · Again, they're all going to be identical,·8·· · · ·· all three plans, all the safety procedures.··One·9·· · · ·· of the things is, we would have to update our10·· · · ·· facility in Polo anyway to go to these new11·· · · ·· safety standards.··We said, You know what, if12·· · · ·· we're going to do that, let's just move it out13·· · · ·· of town where we have got more room to operate,14·· · · ·· where it's less likely that if there is an15·· · · ·· escape of product that it's going to be16·· · · ·· detrimental to the community.··So that's the two17·· · · ·· reasons we're doing it.18·· · · · · · · MR. OCKEN:··So what are you going to do19·· · · ·· with the current tanks there?20·· · · · · · · MR. MILBY:··You're talking about in Polo?21·· · · · · · · MR. OCKEN:··Yeah.22·· · · · · · · MR.

· · · ·· dismantle those until we have the new one·1·· · · ·· operational.··But as soon as the new one is·2·· · · ·· operational, we plan, as a company, to·3·· · · ·· discontinue operating ammonia in town, in the·4·· · · ·· town of Polo.·5·· · · · · · · MR. OCKEN:··Is that true with the one at·6·· · · ·· Bocker's as well?·7·· · · · · · · MR. MILBY:··Yes.··Yes.··The 30,000, we'll·8·· · · ·· discontinue that one as well.··The idea is, once·9·· · · ·· we -- the plan is to have them up and going by10·· · · ·· this fall, which you know how that goes,11·· · · ·· sometimes you get that done, sometimes you12·· · · ·· don't.··But as soon as these plants are13·· · · ·· operational, the other plants will be shut down.14·· · · · · · · MR.

STIVERS:··What if one of them ruptures22·· · · ·· or something at night, 3 in the morning, is23·· · · ·· there a safety -- something that goes --24·· · · · · · · · · In Totidem Verbis, LLC (ITV)· ·

Page 12

· · · · · · · MR. MILBY:··That's a very good question·1·· · · ·· and -- that's an excellent question, and we have·2·· · · ·· abided by this ever since we have been in the·3·· · · ·· anhydrous ammonia business.··Every night that·4·· · · ·· you go home, okay, you shut down the main belly·5·· · · ·· valves, and they're locked.··Okay.··So if there·6·· · · ·· was -- if there ever was an escape, it would·7·· · · ·· only be from the length of pipe from the tank to·8·· · · ·· your riser.··And all anhydrous ammonia·9·· · · ·· facilities are set up that once you lock your10·· · · ·· main tank and anywhere that you trap product,11·· · · ·· you also have what they call a pressure relief12·· · · ·· valve that is designed to go off at 250 psi to13·· · · ·· relieve pressure, but a lot of these fittings14·· · · ·· will handle 400 to a thousand pounds of psi.15·· · · ·· It's just designed at 250 you got some kind of16·· · · ·· relief there.17·· · · · · · · Same way with the storage tanks.··Storage18·· · · ·· tanks, on top you see all those different relief19·· · · ·· valves -- same way with LP -- and after you20·· · · ·· build up so much pressure, they're made to pop21·· · · ·· off.··Okay.··So this whole system is -- once you22·· · · ·· lock them down, the only escape you have will be23·· · · ·· from where the product is truly shut off to the24·· · · · · · · · · In Totidem Verbis, LLC (ITV)· ·

MILBY:··Yes.·5·· · · · · · · MR. STIVERS:··-- with that remote?·6·· · · · · · · MR. MILBY:··Yes.··Yes.··That's -- yes.·7·· · · ·· Everybody will always have access to the remote.·8·· · · · · · · The -- let me go the other way, too.··Go·9·· · · ·· back to the back page.··When a transport of10·· · · ·· ammonia is coming into this device right here,11·· · · ·· you see a red valve, the next device to it, that12·· · · ·· is actually a check valve.··You guys think of a13·· · · ·· water check valve:··product goes in, product14·· · · ·· cannot come out.··So once we go from the hose15·· · · ·· in, we can't get product back out.··You know,16·· · · ·· it's only within the pipe.··That's a good thing.17·· · · · · · · This one here happens to show one of these18·· · · ·· emergency shutoff valves on the vapor.··Vapor is19·· · · ·· not as big of an issue because it's not liquid.20·· · · ·· I'm not sure I'm going to set mine up that way,21·· · · ·· but there are already safety measures on the22·· · · ·· vapor side as well.23·· · · · · · · But therefore -- you know, the transports24·· · · · · · · · · In Totidem Verbis, LLC (ITV)· ·

Page 14

· · · ·· themselves are set up to -- if they are -- if·1·· · · ·· they would have a leak, they have got -- they·2·· · · ·· have got emergency shutoffs that they just,·3·· · · ·· like, pull a cord like this (indicating) and it·4·· · · ·· shuts everything down.··So, therefore, your·5·· · · ·· belly valve shuts on your transport, the only·6·· · · ·· ammonia that you're supposed to lose is between·7·· · · ·· your transport and that fitting I just showed·8·· · · ·· you, because once you go in a check valve, it·9·· · · ·· can't come back out.··That's the way it's all10·· · · ·· set up.11·· · · · · · · MR. CONSIDINE:··So are you guys -- so12·· · · ·· you're meeting the safety standards.··Are you13·· · · ·· going above and beyond, or does the Department14·· · · ·· of Ag say, This is what you have got to do, and15·· · · ·· that's what you're doing?16·· · · · · · · MR. MILBY:··Yes.··The part I feel we're17·· · · ·· going beyond is the thickness of the tank.··I18·· · · ·· mean, the quality of the tank.··We do not have19·· · · ·· to do this.··We have got five years to come up20·· · · ·· to all these standards.··We feel it's -- we feel21·· · · ·· it's important to do, so we're going to be ahead22·· · · ·· of the curve instead of behind the curve.··So23·· · · ·· we're being proactive instead of reactive, if24·· · · · · · · · · In Totidem Verbis, LLC (ITV)· ·

Page 15

· · · ·· that's a good word.··So we're trying to do·1·· · · ·· everything the best we can.·2·· · · · · · · It actually is going to be more cumbersome·3·· · · ·· for me, for the company, because it's at a·4·· · · ·· different location; however, it's safer.··You·5·· · · ·· people ask, even the Board -- my Board asked,·6·· · · ·· Well, are you going to run it in Polo too?··No.·7·· · · ·· I don't want to be running two facilities.··That·8·· · · ·· breaks up your manpower.··We're going to run·9·· · · ·· one, run it more efficiently, run it safer.10·· · · · · · · And the whole idea of this thing is11·· · · ·· safety, safety, safety and are out of town.··We12·· · · ·· might as well get out of town.··We're not being13·· · · ·· forced out of town, so we're voluntarily going14·· · · ·· out of town.15·· · · · · · · MR. OCKEN:··So right now all of your16·· · · ·· deliveries, either by trucks that are coming in17·· · · ·· or the wagons that are going out, are going out18·· · · ·· North Congress Avenue and then cut over to 26,19·· · · ·· so they're going right through that residential20·· · · ·· area, so you're going to eliminate that?21·· · · · · · · MR.

OCKEN:··Now, do you get rail delivery·4·· · · ·· of anhydrous ammonia?·5·· · · · · · · MR. MILBY:··I do.··I do.··And I love rail·6·· · · ·· because I have got -- there's 80 ton on each one·7·· · · ·· of them cars, so that's like having four·8·· · · ·· transports, like, at your instant disposal.·9·· · · ·· It's getting very -- it's getting harder and10·· · · ·· harder to get rail delivery.··Mr. Buffet will11·· · · ·· bring you cars at his convenience when he wants12·· · · ·· to do it.··But the latest cars I had to get out13·· · · ·· of Canada, because they're harder to get.14·· · · ·· American manufacturers, it's harder to get cars,15·· · · ·· it's harder to get that.16·· · · · · · · One of the reasons for our thickness of17·· · · ·· storage capacity is for that reason.··I'm not18·· · · ·· going to have rail cars to back up myself.··I19·· · · ·· will now have a bigger inventory of product so20·· · · ·· that when trucks get slowed up going back and21·· · · ·· forth to the terminal, I have got a way of being22·· · · ·· able to still supply the farmers' needs and not23·· · · ·· be hurting.24·· · · · · · · · · In Totidem Verbis, LLC (ITV)· ·

· · · · · · · But, again, this anhydrous ammonia season·1·· · · ·· is ten days in the spring and ten days in the·2·· · · ·· fall.··We actually only probably get about five·3·· · · ·· or six days in the fall.··But it's very·4·· · · ·· seasonal.·5·· · · · · · · MR.
