CITY OF DEKALB
October 10, 2012
The City Council of DeKalb, Illinois, held a Special Meeting on Wednesday, October 10, 2012 at 6:00 p.m. in
the Council Chambers of the DeKalb Municipal Building, 200 South 4th Street, DeKalb, Illinois.
Notice was given and the meeting was called pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 2, Section 2.05 of the
Municipal Code of the City of DeKalb, Illinois.
Mayor Povlsen called the meeting to order at 6:00 p.m.
A. ROLL CALL:
City Clerk Wright called the roll and the following members of City Council were present: Mayor Kris
Povlsen, Alderman David Jacobson, Alderman Tom Teresinski, Alderman Kristen Lash, Alderman Brendon
Gallagher, Alderman Ronald Naylor, Alderman David Baker and Alderman Monica O’Leary
Also present were: Mark Biernacki, City Manager, Dean Frieders, City Attorney, Gene Lowery, Police Chief,
Eric Hicks, Fire Chief, T.J. Moore, Public Works Director; Joel Maurer, Assistant Direct of Public Works –
Engineering/Transportation; Jeff Birtell, I&T Technician and Diane Wright, City Clerk.
B. APPROVAL OF AGENDA – ADDITIONS/DELETIONS
MOTION
Ald. Teresinski moved to approve the Agenda; seconded by Ald. Lash. Motion carried on voice vote. Mayor
Povlsen declared the motion passed.
Mayor Povlsen stated the first meeting regarding these topics was held in December 2010 and much input has
been provided since that time. He thanked the Task Force, DeKalb Area Rental Association (DARA) and staff
for their work. Additionally, he said, outside consultants were utilized, and other communities were visited in
order to have as much data as possible. We are in almost total agreement, he said, with the exception of
deciding on licensing or registration. He added that staffing needs also must be discussed. He stated he doesn’t
want the costs placed on “the backs” of landlords.
C. REPORT ON CITY STAFF/DARA MEETING RESULTS
Mr. Biernacki stated that staff was directed to determine staffing needs. He added that he has met with DARA
several times, and it was agreed that the crime free lease addendum be a requirement, along with the crime free
training component, and the disorderly house/chronic nuisance ordinance, subject to changes as follows. The
City would be given authority to prohibit rental of problem properties while fees, penalties, etc. are pending.
Additionally, the City would be given authority to conduct interior inspections of the property and implement
a restitution component where the City could recover certain costs and allow for additional fines and penalties.
Licensing is no longer being considered, he added.
The sidewalk inspection program (Level II) would be a routine inspection of all residential buildings on a
cyclical basis. The disagreement is whether registration is annual or a one-time component where the landlords
are only required to re-register if the owner or property management changes. Staff recommends annual
registration. DARA still opposes any fees; in lieu of fees, they suggested a vehicle sticker requirement for all
vehicles registered in the City. This would require significant staff research, Mr. Biernacki said.
Mr. Biernacki stated that staff suggests the sidewalk inspection be implemented on a three-year cycle; 3,000 in
year one, 3,000 in year two and the remaining 3,000 in year three. In the initial years the workload will be
higher than in subsequent years, he said. Each of the three (3) inspectors would be responsible for inspecting
1,000 buildings per year. Regarding program cost recovery; he suggested that one-half be borne by the General
Special Meeting

Fund and the other half by program fees. It is recommended that the rooming houses be eliminated from this
program in that they are already licensed and inspected, and the 180 Housing Authority units also be
eliminated.
D. STAFFING, COST RECOVERY AND IMPLEMENTATION PLAN FOR THE
PROPOSED NEW HOUSING ORDINANCES.
Mr. Biernacki stated that instead of a decentralized staffing effort from various departments, staff recommends
that a “Housing Registration and Inspection Bureau” be implemented as part of the Police Department with
five (5) people: Program Coordinator, Office Associate and three (3) Inspectors. He added that the estimated
annual cost of salaries, benefits, and ongoing staffing costs are $454,000. Also there is a one-time initial cost
estimated at $135,000 including computers, phones, and vehicles. Based on assumption that one -half of the
costs are borne by General Fund and the other half by program fees, $227,000 would be divided between the
two sources. Mr. Biernacki discussed the options presented and noted that in Option 1 approximately $25
would be charged per unit per year as a registration fee. Option 2 (per building) has a flat fee of $75 with
additional charges per unit in the multi-family buildings.
Regarding the timeline for implementation, Mr. Biernacki stated that the ordinances could be adopted in
November; Program Coordinator and Office Associate to be hired in January 2013. The other staff hires and
training phases would occur throughout 2013, he said. He noted that Staff and DARA agreed to all terms
except the manner of funding.
Mr. Biernacki stated that it is clear and DARA agrees that from a property maintenance point of view, there
are as many issues in the owner-occupied buildings. Therefore, it is recommended that all residential buildings
be included, he said.
Ald. Baker asked if everyone agrees to the interior inspections. Mr. Biernacki replied that if there is a problem
property – it gives the staff authority to inspect on the 3rd strike. Mr. Frieders added the three strikes are in the
disorderly housing ordinance – the 3rd strike is when all remedies have been invoked. If there are recurring
issues and they aren’t cooperating with the City and not taking any steps to properly manage properties, it is an
issue that needs to be addressed aggressively, he said, and added that he believes both staff and DARA agrees
to this. The offenses are listed in the disorderly housing ordinance, he said. Ald. Baker stated some of the
landlords do not even live in DeKalb; Mr. Biernacki replied that either the landlord or local property manager
has to complete the training. The proposal is for all rental units – when you start eliminating some it loses its
impact, he said. If they can’t attend one-day training, it means they cannot come to inspect their property, he
added.
Ald. O’Leary raised a concern that after a certain number of strikes, the City will enter a house without
warrant. Mr. Biernacki stated the proposal is agreeable to both staff and DARA. This addresses problem
landlords without affecting the majority, he said. Mr. Frieders added that all the options discussed are
enforceable including the inspections. Also, he said, there are so many steps before the final step is taken. He
added he has no concerns it would not be enforceable. Ald. O’Leary asked what problem is in DeKalb that this
is needed. Mayor Povlsen stated that the process began because the one complaint received is property
maintenance with the behavior of some landlords not taking care of properties. Problems seen are in high
density rental areas, he said.
Ald. Jacobson stated that it is easy to define problems but to send an army of staff at a price we cannot afford
is difficult. He noted there are three basic issues: property maintenance issues which lead to property
management and crime issues. He added we already have tools to utilize: code enforcement and police, and
doesn’t see the need to add more. Ald. Teresinski stated he could not disagree more with Ald. Jacobson. The
recent crime data and deterioration of housing stock and increase in calls are all indicative of long term
systemic decline, he said. He added that he appreciates the effort to deal with the problems identified.
Throwing police in the situation is naive – it is a short term band-aid to the problem that exists, he said. He
Special Meeting

also suggested implementing a 3-strike program with code enforcement element. If a landlord isn’t taking care
of code issues, that should be taken care of also, he said. All major universities already have it in place. Ald.
Lash agreed almost completely with Ald. Teresinski and added that placing the issue under disorderly house
doesn’t make sense.
Mr. Biernacki stated this comes from compromise and wasn’t component of 3rd strike. Mr. Frieders added that
by the time we are at strike 4 we are dealing with a landlord problem; they are not resolving problems with
their own property. The good property managers will resolve the issues on their own and the City will not be
involved in the process, he said. When a property goes to the last step, it is good indication there are
underlying property maintenance issues. When you get to 4th strike it is obvious there is not only problem with
a tenant, but with the landlord and property as well, he said.
Ald. Lash stated she does not deny it is a landlord problem; but believes it should go under property
maintenance. Ald. Teresinski stated he would want separate consideration that has severity with inspection
aspects. Mr. Biernacki stated that staff doesn’t want to shut down entire complex because of one issue in one
unit. However, we have had issues with one complex and perhaps then all units would need to be looked at.
Mr. Frieders added that there has to be some level of staff discretion on how these would be pursued. This isn’t
intended to be used as a trap – we will only use the tool when a landlord is doing nothing with the strikes, he
said.
Ald. Naylor stated he concurred with Ald. Teresinski. He noted that real property maintenance issues not being
addressed to maintain property and would like to see something similar for property maintenance. With a
licensing aspect, the City can prohibit the right to rent more expeditiously, he said.
Mr. Frieders stated that there are some properties that have long standing histories of code violations, and
some choose to ignore the administrative hearing process and fines. We are looking at worst offenders and will
continue to do so, he added.
Ald. Gallagher suggested that out-of-state landlords utilize the cell phones for training. He added that he
supports Option 2A which is the most fair of all proposals, he said. Additionally, he said, he supports annual
registration. The initial plan of five staff is ambitious, he said, but noted that the City cannot put this “on the
backs of the staff now.” In the beginning it seems costly, but will improve the rental stock. We need to fix the
housing stock and the process will vet out the bad landlords and improve the City as a whole, he said.
Ald. Jacobson stated that we have a problem and have to find a way to fix it, but someone sitting in an office
in City Hall will not fix it. He added that he lives in one of the worst neighborhoods and understand there is a
problem. There are staffing issues in police, code, and clerical at this time, he added. He suggested
empowering the departments to make the decisions and allow them to fix the global staffing issues instead of
creating another separate department.
Ald. Baker suggested that the Program Coordinator also inspect and perform his own clerical duties. Mr.
Biernacki stated he does not know at this time if three inspectors will be enough. It is in initial years that
violations will be found, he said. He noted that if Council wants this to be effective, this is his recommendation
along with that of staff. Ald. Baker stated that we need more police. If the neighborhoods aren’t safe people
will not want to live here and will move out. He agreed with Ald. Jacobson that efforts should not be
duplicated. Mr. Biernacki stated that one-half of one full time employee is involved in property maintenance
now. We need to add resources to the issue, he said. Also, he said, if Council wants to get at least 1/3 of the
town done every three years this is what is needed. If Council wants ¼ done then reductions can be made. Ald.
Baker stated that the purpose of registration is that the landlord can be contacted, and only needs to be done
one time to get email addresses. He added that all these costs will be borne by the tenant. Mr. Biernacki stated
that is a major policy issue for Council and added that he proceeded with the assumption Council wanted ½ by
General Fund and ½ by fees.

Mayor Povlsen stated that it appears we have majority of Council wanting to move forward and that would be
my recommendation.
Ald. Naylor concurred with the Mayor and added he would like to see licensing implemented more
expeditiously, and wants to see property maintenance with similar impact as in the nuisance ordinance, but
will support staff’s recommendation. He added that he believes it will take the five people to implement and
manage the program. He noted that this is one step toward many efforts the City is dealing with. He added that
he supports Option 2B. Ald. Teresinski also supported Option 2B. Ald. Lash stated her preference is Option 1.
Mr. Biernacki stated that staff will prepare the ordinances for the November 13 meeting for first reading.

CM Memo #012-093
DATE: October 3, 2012
TO: Mayor
City Council
FROM: Mark Biernacki, City Manager
SUBJECT: City Staff/DARA) Meeting Results and Staffing and Implementation Plan for the
Proposed New Housing Ordinances
At the last special meeting, the City Council directed staff to prepare information and
alternatives on how to staff and implement the various new housing ordinances that are under
consideration. Since then, the Police Chief, City Attorney, and the City Manager have met with
representatives of the DeKalb Area Rental Association (DARA) on October 2nd to try and come
up with a compromise set of ordinances that are acceptable to the parties.
I. City Staff/DARA Meeting Results
A. The following was agreed to:
Crime Free Lease addendum required
Crime free training required by all initially, then on the same three year cycle that
property sidewalk inspections are conducted.
Disorderly House/Chronic Nuisance ordinance is agreeable as written subject to
changes as follows.
Registration (not licensing) is agreed to, provided the chronic nuisance/disorderly
house ordinance is re-drafted so that after the third (3rd) strike, the City would be
given the authority to prohibit the rental of the problem property while fees, penalties,
recovery of costs, etc. are still pending. The City would also be given the authority to
conduct interior inspections of the property, institute a charge-back/restitution
component wherein the City could recover extraordinary costs for police and other
public safety services, and allow for the imposition of additional fines and penalties.
Sidewalk exterior inspection program is agreed to as written.
B. The following was not agreed to:
The parties were not able to come to agreement on the method to fund the resources
needed to implement these housing programs. DARA still opposes an annual
program. They are still proposing a one- time registration program with nominal fees
and are proposing an annual vehicle sticker program. Staff will research the efficacy
of a vehicle sticker program in the coming weeks, but will not have that information
in time for the October 10th special meeting.
C. It is likely that additional meetings with City staff and DARA will be held in advance
of the October 10th special meeting. Staff will report on any changes in the above
items at that time.
II. Proposed Staffing, Cost Recovery and Implementation Plan.
A. This information has been prepared using the following assumptions (results can be
modified if the Council desires the use of alternative assumptions):
Adoption of the Crime Free Lease Addendum Requirement along with mandatory
training as noted above;
Adoption of the Chronic Nuisance/Disorderly House ordinance as noted above;
Adoption of a Registration ordinance requiring annual re-occurring applications and
fees;
Adoption of a “sidewalk” inspection program of all housing units (both rental and
owner occupied) on a three (3) year cycle where one-third (1/3), or 3000 buildings,
would be inspected in year one, 3000 buildings in year two, and the remaining 3000
buildings in year three;
One half of this program’s costs would be borne by the City’s General Fund using
funds already provided in the 5 year financial plan (along with some lesser, to-be-
identified sources of funds). The other half of this program’s costs would be
recovered by annual fees collected at the time of registration; and,
The Housing Authority’s 180 units in the three (3) buildings that they own and the
ninety (90) privately-owned rooming houses that exist in our community would be
exempt from the new registration and inspection programs (they are already regulated
through other federal and local programs).
B. Instead of a decentralized effort with staff from various departments playing a role in
this program’s implementation, it is proposed that there be created a “Housing
Registration and Inspection Bureau” and make it a part of the Police Department.
This Bureau would be staffed with five (5) people as follows:
One (1) Program Coordinator who would provide overall supervision, landlord/police
liaison services, and crime free training;
One (1) Office Associate who would provide clerical and office support, record
keeping, and data control; and,
Three (3) Inspectors, each of which would be responsible for inspecting 1000
buildings each year, conducting follow-up inspections, attending court and
administrative hearings, conducting general City-wide property maintenance
enforcement tasks, etc.
C. This program would be implemented in stages throughout the 2013 calendar year.
This plan, options on cost recovery, and other material and data are outlined in more
detail in the various attachments to this memo.

Hi Shelly,
Can you remind me again how many apartment units the HA owns in the City?
I'm trying to calculate per unit registration fees for the new housing programs and need to net out these
units from the totals if we end up exempting them from the program.
Thanks
Mark
