CHAIR'S REPORT

5.A. Chair Conroy’s Budget Presentation

Chair Conroy made the following remarks:

Good morning. Today, I am proud to come before you with a Fiscal Year 2025 budget proposal

that aligns with our County mission, supporting vital services in a cost-effective, fiscally

responsible manner. I want to begin by thanking our Finance Team, led by CFO Jeff

Martynowicz, and his deputies, Jennifer Sinn and Mary Catherine Wells. Our Chief

Administrative Officer Nick Kottmeyer played a key role helping us in our effort to track

initiatives and find ways to meet our residents’ needs.

As you might imagine, the process of developing the FY 2025 budget caused us to confront some

key questions as we close out 2024. For example, we know that by the end of this calendar year,

all funds from the federal American Rescue Plan Act - or ARPA - must be obligated. The first

critical question we face is, “Which ARPA funded programs will we sustain and how?” Another,

annual question is, “What can we do to support those in need and lift our residents up?” And

finally, “How will we manage our revenue streams, maintain our pledge to fiscal responsibility

and ensure we are providing good value to our taxpayers?” Or, in short, how will we pay for it

all?

The process of developing this budget was incredibly rewarding. I consider it an honor to do this

difficult, fascinating work because we see firsthand just how close County government is to

people. We are stopped at the grocery store by people who want to tell us what they need.

Policies and decisions we make today take root and create impact right before our eyes. It’s why I

got into this business, and I’m pretty sure it’s why you did too. As I recalled just a few of our

community projects, those successes motivated me and our budget team to try to do more in

2025, think differently about how to deliver services, and provide even greater value to our

taxpayers.

Before I tell you where we will go in Fiscal Year 2025, I’ll offer a financial and economic

snapshot summarizing where DuPage County is today.

· Of course, our biggest news this summer: Fitch upgraded our bond rating to AAA, the

highest rating possible. DuPage County is now AAA-rated by all three rating agencies, a

claim that only about 2 percent of counties nationwide can make.

· Over the past two years, Choose DuPage reports there were more than 318 economic

development projects in DuPage, with more than 5,400 jobs created or retained, almost

26 million square feet developed, representing more than $1.5 billion dollars invested in

our County.

· Since January 2022, employment in DuPage grew more than 5 percent adding 3,300 jobs

to our local economy.

· Thanks to the actions of this entire Board, our elected officials, and staff, we have healthy

reserves. We have not raised property taxes in more than a decade, and the budget I

present today keeps the property tax rate flat.

Creating that rock-solid financial foundation is the result of intentional teamwork. I’m proud that

we have demonstrated a common desire to come together and find solutions through

compromise. It has been our style of leadership and governance. It will remain so.

In that spirit, I reviewed all the budget requests that came to us this summer. They were more

than $20 million dollars higher than our revenue estimates. That might cause any leader to need

not one, but two emotional support dogs. I asked our department directors and elected officials to

sharpen their pencils and streamline those budget requests. In individual meetings with our staff,

each elected official - except for one - reached a thoughtful compromise on next year’s budget.

I want to call out Recorder Kathleen Carrier, who actually reduced her budget request to come

slightly under the amount I approved for her office last year.

Kathy provided an example of the type of fiscal responsibility and collaboration we had hoped to

find when dealing with the County Clerk. Unfortunately, during this year’s budget preparation,

the County Clerk did not meet with our staff, declined our invitation to present her budget

proposal, and did not, in any way, communicate justification for her budget increase requests.

Therefore, our Finance Office compared actual expenditures from previous years in which there

was a municipal election cycle, as there will be in in 2025. We then set the budget for the

Election Division of the Clerk’s Office 5 percent higher than the actual expenses less benefits

following the municipal elections in 2023, and 42 percent higher than the actual expenses from a

similar election cycle in 2021. These figures account for increases in personnel, commodities,

and contractual service costs.

As we move into 2025, the final numbers reflect our duty to provide the resources needed to

fulfill our responsibilities. I’m going to highlight just a few areas of investment I’m proposing.

Let’s start with public safety. It’s a top priority for all of us. This budget reflects our shared

vision for safe streets and neighborhoods. During his budget presentation, State’s Attorney Bob

Berlin made a strong case for investments in his office where the felony caseload is 6.5 percent

higher today than it was in 2019. Thanks to the investments we made last year, Mr. Berlin and

Public Defender Jeff York have been able to hire more attorneys to keep up with the work.

But that effort must continue in 2025. My 2025 budget proposal funds the additional staff

requested by the State’s Attorney and Public Defender. They will continue their efforts to attract

and retain attorneys. We also heard about the Sheriff’s plan to whittle away at the vacant

headcount and fill those jobs in 2025. My budget proposal increases funding for the Sheriff’s

Office so they can continue this effort and provide our officers on the street with the tools they

need to keep DuPage County safe.

There’s a corresponding need in the 18th Judicial Circuit. Chief Judge Bonnie Wheaton told us

about the increase in Shelter Care hearings for children in cases of alleged abuse and neglect.

Our budget doubles the number of contracted Guardian Ad Litem attorneys to meet this growing

need to protect DuPage County children.

Additionally, I fully support Judge Wheaton’s assertion that we need more mental health

assistance within the courthouse. My budget proposal provides funding for a part-time

Behavioral Health Specialist to be housed in the courthouse during peak hours. This staff

member will help individuals in need of de-escalation and crisis intervention. I thank Judge

Wheaton for her suggestion which provides much-needed support for people during what can be

a very difficult time.

That’s the model we want to follow in our DuPage Council on Strengthening the System for

Mental Health and Substance Use Care. I’m increasing the annual County allocation to $350,000

in 2025. This money will fund community initiatives providing mental health services, substance

use treatment, and counseling at a grassroots level. I will continue to bring together lawmakers,

mayors, healthcare systems, 708 Boards, and all who gathered for our Crisis Center

groundbreaking to foster an inclusive and well-coordinated approach. My goal is to provide

mental health and substance use treatment right here in DuPage County. Too many families are

struggling to find treatment they can afford in their own community.

Our approach is the same in Hinsdale Lake Terrace. We’re bringing together our partners to fill

the gaps for residents in need. This summer, Board Members and I attended an event at the

Avanath apartment community and met the management company’s CEO, Daryl Carter. Mr.

Carter heard some of our concerns as we strenuously advocated for better access to the

Clubhouse facilities for residents, including students in need. He has responded positively. I hope

he saw, firsthand, how engaged local elected officials are with that community’s residents, who,

for too long, have felt forgotten. Our plans to improve transportation, add sidewalks and lighting

in this area will move forward through next year. And we will continue to support and invest in

safety and opportunity for the residents of Hinsdale Lake Terrace.

When we talk about opportunity, I’m proud to announce that our new Contracting Equity

Administrator has been hired and will begin his work moving our Diversity, Equity, and

Inclusion initiative to the next level. In 2024, with the help of Choose DuPage, we conducted

events to educate disadvantaged, minority and women business owners about how to do business

with the County. We will continue outreach in the community in 2025. We’re also funding

Connect DuPage, our joint initiative with Choose DuPage that provides vital linkages between

minority-owned businesses and our County’s large employers.

In 2024, this Board joined me in dedicating a great deal of time to one of my top priorities:

Creating more affordable housing in DuPage. In 2024, our Affordable Housing Committee

identified several challenges to developing affordable housing units in the County. This Board

has taken commendable steps to remedy this situation, including:

· Changing the zoning code, making it easier to develop more than 1,000 existing

properties, avoiding a more rigorous zoning process.

· The County approved Zoning changes to allow Accessory Dwelling Units, creating

opportunities for workers to find more affordable living arrangements.

· We provided $50,000 from our Affordable Housing fund to help the Village of Roselle

with asbestos abatement of a building to be used for senior housing.

· This fall, we will review and consider a draft housing plan provided by Grounded

Solutions, our national housing consultant group. This plan will suggest specific actions

the County can take to increase the supply of homes that fit into what I call the “missing

middle.”

We want to bring back teachers, healthcare workers, tradespeople, young adults, and retirees

whose income level should provide them with an opportunity to live here. We will move this

plan forward in 2025 providing opportunity so our “middle” is “missing” no more.

At the beginning of my remarks, I said one of the key questions for us to examine was what

initiatives we will move forward after ARPA dollars are expended. The fact is the cost of

groceries remains stubbornly high. I propose putting $500,000 into a line item called “Food

Insecurity” to assist families who need our help. You may recall, we also have more than $1

million in ARPA interest already set aside for this purpose. However, we have all heard from

food pantries, non-profits, and community members working to alleviate hunger in DuPage. I

believe putting aside additional dollars to support these efforts is a prudent investment and will

strengthen our social service safety net.

Many Board members have identified pressing needs within their own districts that they would

like to fund. These include initiatives promoting youth job training, mental health services in

schools, and other grassroots community programs. In 2025, I am putting $1.8 million directly in

Board members’ control. Each member will determine the expenditure of their share of that

funding in accordance with state statute and the guidelines developed for the program itself.

Members may combine with another district for an initiative, or even work together as a

collective body to put the entire $1.8 million toward a list of causes you all champion. The

decisions will be yours.

One of the decisions I made last year has paid dividends. Again, this year, I propose that if funds

are available, we pre-pay some of our 2025 anticipated expenses in 2024. For example, at our

last County Board meeting, this Board agreed to set aside $4.5 million in additional 2024 funds

as a loan to Animal Services as they complete our Shelter’s largest expansion in the building’s

history. This $13.45 million project has attracted millions in donations, representing a successful

public-private investment. The expansion will provide safety and support for animals and

provide service and education for DuPage residents for decades to come.

I propose, if available, we pull $3 million from any 2024 excess funds for Facilities Management

capital needs, removing this expenditure from next year’s General Fund budget. I propose adding

$1 million to our vehicle replacement fund. This action will allow us to keep our fleet in good

working order and to place vehicle orders early when supplies are tight.

Utilizing dollars from this year’s budget, I plan to set aside $1 million toward the cost of

maintaining and reinforcing the areas of wear and tear at the Elmhurst Quarry. The Quarry is our

largest flood-control facility, diverting floodwater from thousands of homes in DuPage. Investing

now will prevent emergencies resulting in an unplanned, larger expenditure down the road. Also,

as a preventive measure, I am allocating $1 million from this year’s funds, if possible, toward

flood proofing our own buildings here on campus. A recent study demonstrated the need, and

setting aside funds to begin these projects now will prevent damage and deterioration that could

harm County operations.

To remain fiscally responsible, my plan adds $1 million to our County reserves. Adding to our

reserves ensures stable service delivery and protects our County finances against any potential

economic downturn or the need for emergency spending.

While we’re talking about making sound investments in our future, there’s no better investment

than those we make in our 2,300 County employees. This year, we are formalizing our policy

that provides 12 weeks paid parental leave for County workers. It’s the right thing to do, it’s long

overdue, and it’s an important tool to help us attract and retain great employees.

To that end, thanks to careful management, I am pleased to report that in 2025, the County will

absorb the 2 percent increase in healthcare costs for employees, so the cost of health, vision, and

dental employee insurance premiums will remain the same with no additional contributions from

staff next year.

As I consider the cost of living and the needs of our County employees, I am proposing a 3.5

percent cost of living adjustment for employees to be paid in December 2024 when the new

fiscal year begins. Supporting our award-winning staff, who support our County, is one of the

wisest investments we will make in 2025.

Therefore, I propose a total balanced budget of $635.8 million with a General Fund totaling

$257.1 million. I propose a tax levy of $71 million, seeking only to include new construction

growth, as we have done in past years to equalize the burden on us all. My 2025 budget proposal

assumes we keep the DuPage County property tax rate flat at just 2 percent of the average

homeowner’s property tax bill.

We anticipate strong revenue performance next year, which will help us meet our obligations.

DuPage County government’s General Fund balance remains healthy. Our IMRF pension

obligations are fully funded for FY2025. And, we have planned for adequate contingency levels

should there be an urgent need we must meet to maintain the health or safety of our residents.

My 2025 budget proposal provides answers to the three key questions I identified at the

beginning of my remarks:

· I have proposed a plan to replace some of the ARPA funds to sustain important safety net

services.

· We’re investing in mental health, affordable housing, public safety, and DEI initiatives to

support our residents.

· I have laid out a fiscally responsible plan, pre-paying on initiatives to save money, while

strengthening our reserves to protect against economic downturns or emergency

expenses.

As I’ve outlined my priorities, there’s one thing I really need to make my budget proposal a

success: That’s you. You, along with our staff and Countywide elected officials, are the ground

forces that ensure our day-to-day successes. We work as a team, promoting dialogue, helping to

solve the issues facing our residents, going the extra mile in a manner that’s second to none.

This is a fiscally responsible and responsive budget proposal. It is now in your hands. I know in

2025 we will strive to provide outstanding service and the highest value for every tax dollar we

collect. We will always put the best interests of our residents first. And the fact that we get to do

it all together? Well, that’s just the icing on the cake! I appreciate your attention today and I

welcome your thoughtful consideration of this plan. Thank you.

COUNTY, ILLINOIS. COMMONLY KNOWN AS: 24W655 7TH STREET, NAPERVILLE, ILLINOIS

AND 24W681 75TH STREET, NAPERVILLE, ILLINOIS; and

WHEREAS, the Zoning Board of Appeals, having considered in relation to the above

requested zoning petition presented at the above hearing and at the recommendation meeting

held on September 5, 2024 does find as follows:

FINDINGS OF FACT:

1. That petitioner testified that they seek the subject zoning relief to rezone the subject

property and for a Conditional Use for Planned Development with a self-storage

facility, day care center, and drive-through coffee shop with an exception for

increased FAR.

2. That petitioner testified that the subject property consists of three (3) parcels totaling

approximately 4.7 acres.

3. That petitioner testified that the current property consists of three (3) parcels, with

three (3) single-family homes, two (2) of which are vacant and one (1) that is

currently occupied.

a. Furthermore, that petitioner testified that one of the vacant houses previously had

squatters on the premises, which caused a fire in the principal structure.

4. That petitioner testified that the subject property is located on the southside of 75th

Street, near Wehrli Road, and that this area of 75th Street is a major arterial roadway

consisting of four (4) lanes and turn lanes, as well as a landscaped-barrier median.

5. That petitioner testified that directly to the east of the subject property is a

commercial use (Walgreens), to the south is a passive and active recreational use

(Naperville Park District), to the west is a vacant residential parcel with cell towers,

and to the north is 75th Street and beyond residential townhomes.

6. That petitioner testified that the subject property has been for sale since at least 2016,

and that at that time, applicants came forward with a self-storage development on the

property through both the City of Naperville and DuPage County, which was

ultimately denied.

7. That petitioner testified that the trend of development in the general area is towards

commercial and not to single family residential, and that due to the location of the

subject property on 75th Street, no additional single family home buyers or builders

have been interested in the property.

a. Additionally, that petitioner testified the subject property lacks the ability and

interest to develop as a R-2 Single Family residential development and that the

current zoning designation prohibits the subject property from being developed in

its highest and best use.

8. That petitioner testified that for the last fifty (50) years, the subject property has been

zoned single-family residential, and that the trend of the development at 75th and

Wehrli since that time has been for multi-family residential developments, such as the

townhomes north of 75th Street and commercial uses.

9. That petitioner testified that due to the surrounding uses and location on a major

arterial roadway, the R-2 Single Family Residential zoning classification significantly

decreases the interest of the subject property, and that a rezoning from R-2 to B-2

would be highly appropriate.

10. That petitioner testified that the proposed self-storage facility would have all

operations conducted completely inside, including loading/ unloading of a customer’s

personal property and that there would no outside storage permitted on the property.

a. That petitioner testified that the proposed self-storage facility would be monitored

24/7, with onsite staff from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, and that the facility would be

able to be accessed by customers 24/7 with a passcode.

b. That petitioner testified that although it would be the largest of the buildings, the

traffic report submitted by KLOA indicates that the self-storage use would only

generate approximately twenty (20) users a day, as it is primarily a dormant use.

11. That petitioner testified that the proposed day care center would be operated by Little

Sunshine’s Day Care, which has a number of locations throughout the Chicagoland

area.

a. That petitioner testified that the proposed day care center would be operated with

thirty-five (35) employees and have approximately one hundred and sixty (160)

pre-school aged children.

12. That petitioner testified that the proposed hours of operation of the day care center

would be from 6:00 AM to 6:30 PM.

a. Additionally, that petitioner testified that parents/ guardians of children at the day

care center will park their car and walk their children into the day care center,

eliminating the need for a queue-up line.

13. That petitioner testified that the proposed hours of operation of the drive-through

coffee shop are from 5:30 AM to 8:00 PM, with staffing of two (2) to three (3) people

at all times.

a. Furthermore, that petitioner testified that only coffee and cold food would be

served at the proposed coffee shop, and that no food would be physically prepared

at the subject property.

14. That petitioner testified the proposed development would be utilizing a well and an

IEPA-approved sewage system.

15. That petitioner testified that although they have requested an exception to increase the

FAR on the subject property from permitted 0.25 FAR to approximately 0.66, that a

0.66 FAR is not an unreasonable number for a modern commercial development,

especially including a development that contains a self-storage use that is a primarily

dormant use.

16. That petitioner testified that they completed a wetland delineation with the DuPage

County Stormwater Department and that the Stormwater Department has no concerns

of wetlands on the subject property.

STANDARDS FOR MAP AMENDMENT (REZONING):

1. That the Zoning Board of Appeals finds that petitioner has demonstrated that the

granting of the map amendment (rezoning) is in harmony with the general purpose

and intent of the Zoning Ordinance, and that the petitioner has not demonstrated the

following standards for a map amendment (rezoning):

2. Existing uses of property within the general area of the property in question, as petitioner

has demonstrated that the existing uses of property within the general area of the property

in question are primarily multi-family and commercial, and that directly to the east of the

subject property is a commercial use (Walgreens), to the south is a passive and active

recreational use (Naperville Park District), to the west is a vacant residential parcel with cell

towers, and to the north is 75th Street and beyond residential townhomes.

3. The zoning classification of property within the general area of the property in question, as

petitioner has demonstrated that directly to the east of the subject property is zoned

commercial within the City of Naperville (Walgreens), to the south is a passive and active

recreational use (Naperville Park District), to the west is zoned single family residential that

is a vacant parcel with cell towers, and to the north is 75th Street and beyond is zoned

multi-family with a townhome development within the City of Naperville.

4. The suitability of the property in question for the uses permitted under the existing zoning

classification, as petitioner has demonstrated that due to the location of the subject property

on 75th Street, no additional single family home buyers or builders have been interested in

the property.

5. The trend of development, if any, in the general area of the property in question, including

changes, if any, which may have taken place since the property in question was placed in its

present zoning classification, as petitioner has demonstrated that the trend of development

in the general area is towards commercial and multi-family residential, and that due to the

location of the subject property on 75th Street, no additional single family home buyers or

builders have been interested in the property.

6. The length of time the property has been vacant as zoned, considered in the context of the

land development in the area surrounding the subject property, as petitioner has

demonstrated that the subject property has lacked the ability and interest to develop as a R-

2 Single Family residential development since 2016, and that the current zoning designation

prohibits the subject property from being developed in its highest and best use.

7. The extent to which the property values are diminished by particular zoning restrictions, as

petitioner has demonstrated that due to the surrounding uses and location on a major

arterial roadway (75th Street), the R-2 Single Family Residential zoning classification

significantly decreases the interest of the subject property, and that a rezoning from R-2 to B-

2 would be the highest and best use of the subject property.

STANDARDS FOR CONDITIONAL USES:

1. That the Zoning Board of Appeals finds that petitioner has demonstrated that the granting

of the Conditional Use is in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the Zoning

Ordinance, and will not be injurious to the neighborhood, detrimental to the public welfare,

or in conflict with the County’s comprehensive plan for development; and specifically, that

the granting of the Conditional Use will not:

a. Impair an adequate supply of light and air to the adjacent property as petitioner has

demonstrated that the proposed development would meet all required setbacks and that

it would not impair an adequate supply of light and air to the adjacent properties.

b. Increase the hazard from fire or other dangers to said property as petitioner has

demonstrated that the proposed development and developer will obtain building permits

for all proposed construction and that there would not be an increase in the hazard from

fire or other dangers to said property.

c. Diminish the value of land and buildings throughout the County as petitioner has

demonstrated that the proposed development would be an added benefit to the

neighborhood, as the currently property has two (2) vacant homes and that one of the

homes has since caught fire due to squatters.

d. Unduly increase traffic congestion in the public streets and highways as petitioner has

demonstrated that according to the traffic report submitted by KLOA, the proposed

development will not unduly increase traffic congestion in the public streets and

highways.

e. Increase the potential for flood damages to adjacent property as petitioner has

demonstrated that the Stormwater Department has no objections to the concept of the

proposed development.

f. Incur additional public expense for flood protection, rescue or relief as petitioner has

demonstrated that the Stormwater Department has no objections to the concept of the

proposed development.

g. Otherwise impair the public health, safety, comfort, morals, or general welfare of the

inhabitants of DuPage County as petitioner has demonstrated that the proposed

development will be an added benefit to the surrounding area and will not otherwise

impair the public health, safety, comfort, morals, or general welfare of the inhabitants of

DuPage County.

WHEREAS, a public hearing was held on August 14, 2024, in the DuPage County

Administration Building, 421 North County Farm Road, Wheaton, Illinois at 2:30 P.M. before

the DuPage County Zoning Hearing Officer and notice of said hearing was duly given; and

WHEREAS, a petition was presented at this hearing requesting the following

zoning relief:

Variation to reduce the corner side setback from required 30 feet to approximately 12.08 feet. for

a one-story, three car garage addition and interior renovation project, on the property hereinafter

described:

LOT 39 IN NAPERVILLE COUNTRY ESTATES, UNIT NUMBER 2, BEING A SUBDIVISION OF

PART OF THE SOUTHEAST QUARTER OF SECTION 5, TOWNSHIP 38 NORTH, RANGE 10 EAST

OF THE THIRD PRINCIPAL MERIDIAN, ACCORDING TO THE PLAT THEREOF RECORDED

SEPTEMBER 29, 1955 AS DOCUMENT 775120, IN DUPAGE COUNTY, ILLINOIS; and

WHEREAS, the Zoning Hearing Officer, having considered in relation to the above

requested zoning petition presented at the above hearing and at the recommendation meeting

held on August 14, 2024 does find as follows:

FINDINGS OF FACT:

A. That petitioner testified that the subject zoning relief is to reduce the corner side setback

from required 30 feet to approximately 12.08 feet. for a one-story, three car garage addition

and interior renovation project.

B. That petitioner testified that the existing home is bilevel, with no main-level family room,

and that the proposed zoning relief would allow for the expansion of the existing

kitchen/dining and family room into the existing three (3) car garage area, by constructing a

new three (car) garage onto the front of the existing home.

a. Furthermore, that petitioner testified that the new design would allow for a family room,

powder room, and mudroom to be located on the main level of the existing house.

C. That petitioner testified that the existing home was originally constructed 12.08 feet from the

corner side property line.

D. That petitioner testified that the proposed addition would not encroach further into the corner

side yard setback than the existing attached garage/residence (which is located at 12.08 feet

from the corner side property line) and will not go any further into the front yard than the

existing residence does.

E. That the Zoning Hearing Officer finds that petitioner has demonstrated sufficient evidence

for a practical difficulty and particular hardship, as petitioner indicated that the existing

home was originally constructed 12.08 feet from the corner side property line, and that in

order to build an addition onto the existing bilevel home, the proposed addition would be

less than 30 feet from the corner side property line (approximately 12.08 feet) due to the

layout of the subject home on the property and would follow the existing home building lines

and architectural integrity.

STANDARDS FOR VARIATIONS:

1. That the Zoning Hearing Officer finds that petitioner has demonstrated that the granting of

the Variation is in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the Zoning Ordinance,

and will not be injurious to the neighborhood, detrimental to the public welfare, or in conflict

with the County’s comprehensive plan for development.

2. That the Zoning Hearing Officer finds that petitioner has demonstrated the granting of the

Variation will not:

a. Impair an adequate supply of light and air to the adjacent property as petitioner has

demonstrated that the proposed house addition will follow the existing house setbacks

and therefore, will not impair an adequate supply of light and air to the adjacent

properties.

b. Increase the hazard from fire or other dangers to said property as petitioner has

demonstrated that they will receive a building permit for the proposed house addition,

and that it will be built pursuant to the current building codes.

c. Diminish the value of land and buildings throughout the County as petitioner has

demonstrated that the proposed house addition will be an added benefit to the

neighborhood and will not diminish the value of land and buildings throughout the

County.

d. Unduly increase traffic congestion in the public streets and highways as petitioner has

demonstrated that the proposed house addition will not unduly increase traffic

congestion in the public streets and highways.

e. Increase the potential for flood damages to adjacent property as petitioner has

demonstrated that the proposed house addition will not increase the potential for flood

damages to adjacent property.

f. Incur additional public expense for flood protection, rescue or relief as petitioner has

demonstrated that the proposed house addition will not incur additional public expense

for flood protection, rescue, or relief.

g. Otherwise impair the public health, safety, comfort, morals, or general welfare of the

inhabitants of DuPage County as petitioner has demonstrated that the proposed house

addition will not impair the public health, safety, comfort, morals, or general welfare and

will be an added benefit to the neighborhood.
