C. AWARD OF CONTRACTS:
1) RENEWALS - VILLAGE OF OAK BROOK HEALTH AND HEALTH&
DENTAL PLAN, GROUP TERM LIFE INSURANCE AND DENTAL, LIFE
GROUP VISION INSURANCE: & VISION INS
All of the insurance policies and agreements relating to the Village's
employee benefit program are scheduled to expire on June 30, 2000,
the end of the 1999/2000 plan year. The Village utilizes Health Plan
Management, Inc. (HPM) for third party claims administration and the
Kennedy Consulting Group on retainer performs plan
administration/consulting services. Kennedy Consulting Group places
stop -loss and group term life insurance coverage on a net -of-
commission basis through Health Plan Management, rather than an
insurance broker, with oversight.
Claims Administration
In 1999, the Village Board renewed a contract with Health Plan
Management for administrative services for a period of one year. The
VILLAGE OF OAK BROOK Minutes Page 4 of 14 June 27, 2000
10--
contract includes performance guarantees relating to service issues such
as claim turnaround time and financial quality
(overpayments /underpayments).
7. C. 1) HPM has proposed a 2.9% increase to its per participant per month rate
(from $8.75 to $9.00), and no increase to its current annual renewal fee
of $900. Even with the 2.9% increase, these rates continue to be very
competitive. Based on the advice of the Village's plan consultant, staff
recommends renewing the agreement with Health Plan Management
for third party claims administration services for a period of one year at
the rate of $9.00 / participant/month plus the $900 base fee.
Plan Administration
Plan administration represents the amount necessary to cover the cost
of plan consulting services provided by Kennedy Consulting Group
($600 per month) and Health Plan Management's annual renewal fee
($900). Kennedy Consulting Group has agreed to hold their monthly
fee at $600. Staff has increasingly called upon Kennedy to provide
advice, conduct research and serve as liaison between the Village and
HPM over the past several years. On average, Kennedy provides 80
hours of service to the Village annually, resulting in an hourly rate of
$90. The amount necessary to cover the cost of plan administration for
2000/2001 remains at $3.55 /participant/month.
Specific and Aggregate Stop -Loss Insurance
Specific and aggregate stop -loss insurance is used to reduce the risk
associated with being self - insured by capping the amount of claims for
which the Village is responsible, both for an individual (specific), and
for the entire group (aggregate). The Village's specific stop -loss
"deductible" is currently $30,000. The insurance carrier based on
125% of anticipated claims determines the aggregate "deductible ". The
aggregate amount may vary depending on the actuarial assumptions
used by the insurance carrier, as each carrier has a different view as to
the anticipated total amount of our claims.
National Benefits Resource (NBR) proposed the lowest rates per
participant, per month. Based on a specific stop -loss "deductible" of
$30,000, the Village would experience a minimum 64% increase in our
stop -loss reinsurance premiums for both single and family coverage.
The Village increased the specific stop -loss "deductible" from $25,000
to $30,000 effective July 1, 1999 in order to take advantage of more
favorable re- insurance rates. In order to control the costs, the Village
VILLAGE OF OAK BROOK Minutes Page 5 of 14 June 27, 2000
would experience an increase in the stop -loss premiums of only 5% by
assuming a higher deductible of $50,000.
7. C. 1) It is recommended that the Village increase its stop -loss deductible to
$50,000 and retain NBR for stop -loss coverage at the rates of $21.70
per participant per month for specific- single coverage, $55.72 per
participant per month for specific - family and $4.70 per participant per
month for aggregate coverage.
PPO Access/Utilization Review
Utilization review is necessary to pre- certify hospital stays and
treatments, and currently HPM subcontracts pre- certification to
Medical Cost Management. HPM includes its PPO access premium in
its utilization fee and the PPO provider is increasing its fees by $.50 per
participant per month. As a result, HPM has proposed an increase in
the current rate from $4.70 /participant /month to
$5.70 /participant /month.
Conversion Fee
This is a provision in our plan, which allows former employees to elect
to convert to an individual policy with the selected vendor after their
rights under COBRA have expired. This provides the participant with
the ability for continued coverage. This option is provided by Celtic
Life Insurance at the rate of $.60 per participant per month and the rate
has not changed since it was first instituted in 1993.
Health Claims
With claim levels being elevated for two years now, it appears that
these amounts are indicative of the Village's actual experience. An
increase in equivalent premiums of 24.17% is recommended in order to
fund the projected cost of health insurance for the 2000 -2001 plan year.
Dental Insurance
The Village is 100% self - insured for its dental insurance coverage, with
Health Plan Management again providing administrative services. Staff
recommends increasing the monthly dental premiums from $19.30 to
$22.84 for single coverage and from $59.59 to $70.53 for family
coverage.

7. C. 1) Life Insurance
The Village provides $50,000 of group term life insurance and AD & D
coverage to all full -time employees. Last year, the Village negotiated a
two -year rate of $0.216 per $1,000 per month with American
International Group (AIG). July 1, 2000 marks the beginning of the
second year of this agreement.
Vision Insurance
The Village utilizes Vision Service Plan (VSP) as its vision insurance
provider. Employee coverage is paid for by the Village, with
dependent coverage being optional and fully paid for by the employee.
Staff recommends that the Village renew with VSP for an additional
two years at the monthly rates of $7.71 /month for each employee and
$16.58 /month for dependent coverage.
Motion by Trustee Caleel, seconded by Trustee Savino, to authorize the
Village Manager to enter into agreements for third party claims
administration services; specific and aggregate stop -loss insurance for
the Village of Oak Brook Health and Dental Plan; group term life
insurance and group vision insurance; all for the period beginning July
1, 2000 and ending June 30, 2001. ROLL CALL VOTE:
Ayes: 6 - Trustees Butler, Caleel, Craig, Kenny, McInerney and
Savino.
Nays: 0 - None.
Absent: 0 - None. Motion carried.
President Bushy suggested staff may wish to investigate health
programs for our employees to stay healthy. Village Manager Veitch
stated that Kennedy Consultants monitors how the claim funds are
being spent according to medical classifications and notifies the Village
of trends that may be mitigated through increasing coverage on
preventive measures. The Village has begun to consider the feasibility
of restructuring the Village's plan and what is available. Trustee Caleel
inquired if DuPage Mayors and Managers Conference has considered
developing a plan for municipalities. Village Manager Veitch
explained that due to the diversity of many municipalities it is difficult
to develop a plan.
Trustee Kenny asked if the Village knows what are the types of claims
that have caused a 17% increase. Finance Director Langlois indicated
that there has been an increase in retirees to the plan and service costs
have risen. Assistant Village Manager Crotty also indicated service
VILLAGE OF OAK BROOK Minutes Page 7 of 14 June 27, 2000
costs have increased and the increase has not been due to injuries of our
employees.
Trustee Caleel asked that staff determine the percentage of overall costs
by the retirees of the Village's health care plan. Staff will review
health care plan options and present an interim report to the Village
Board as requested.
7. C. 2) KITCHEN REMODELING - FIRE DEPARTMENT STATION KITCHEN
TWO: REMODEL
Fifteen companies were notified of this project. Only one company
attended the pre -bid meeting while the other company visited the site at
a later date without Fire personnel. Both companies submitted bids.
The other bid submitted was by Walter Daniels Construction for a lump
sum price of $46,232. Reasons cited for companies not submitting bids
included statements to the effect that they were too busy to undertake
this project or they declined to bid due to public contract bonding and
insurance requirements.
In the Village's bid package, staff specified Corian Countertops and
Builders Cabinets Julietta -style or approved equal. The lower bidder
proposed substitutions on both items. Stonite was the substitution for
the countertops and Mills Pride was the substitution for the cabinets.
Staff has researched these substitutions and has found them to be of
equal quality to that specified. In addition, the Mills Pride cabinets
have a lifetime warranty compared to a one year limited warranty on
the Builders Cabinets that staff specified. Work on this project is
scheduled for completion by October 1, 2000.
Funds in the amount of $25,000 have been budgeted in the Foreign Fire
Insurance Tax (23 -729) and the Municipal Building Improvements (10-
421) accounts for this project. The additional $15,550.00 would be
covered by deferring the door opener upgrade and replacement project
at Fire Station #2 ($28,000 budget).
Motion by Trustee Kenny, seconded by Trustee McInerney, that a
contract be awarded, subject to staff review, to the lowest responsible
bidder: R. J. Haack Builders, Inc., 642 N. Forrest Avenue, Arlington
Heights, IL 60004 -5809, to perform the kitchen remodeling for a lump
sum price of $40,550.
Trustee Savino inquired into the cost of some of the materials to be
used in the remodeling project and if there were less costly materials
VILLAGE OF OAK BROOK Minutes Page 8 of 14 June 27, 2000

available. The Board members concurred that some of the materials
were too costly and to investigate if some items may be substituted.
Motion by Trustee Kenny, seconded by Trustee McInerney, to
withdraw the motion for the award of contract to R. J. Haack Builders,
Inc., 642 N. Forrest Avenue, Arlington Heights, IL 60004 -5809, to
perform the kitchen remodeling for a lump sum price of $40,550.
Motion by Trustee Caleel, seconded by Trustee Savino, to table this
item to the next Board meeting and authorize staff to negotiate with the
lowest responsible bidder, R. J. Haack Builders, Inc. to reduce the cost
of materials. VOICE VOTE: Motion carried.
7. C. 3) AUDIT SERVICES CONTRACT EXTENSION: AUDIT coNT
The Village entered into a three -year contract in 1997 (following an
RFP process) for auditing services through the 1999 fiscal year. That
contract contained a provision that would allow the Village, at its sole
option, to negotiate a one -year extension to the contract. When the
RFP was issued in 1997, it was contemplated that the Village would
extend the term for an additional one -year period if satisfied with the
services provided and the fee for the additional year was acceptable.
Staff is exercising an option in the existing three -year contract for an
additional one year extension with a 4% increase above the 1999 fee.
Motion by Trustee Caleel, seconded by Trustee Savino, to approve an
extension of the contract with: McGladrey & Pullen, LLP, Certified
Public Accountants, Hickory Creek Office Center, Suite 300, 19001
Old LaGrange Road, Mokena, Illinois 60448, for audit services based
on a proposal for the 2000 fiscal year at a not to exceed fee of $21,900.
ROLL CALL VOTE:
Ayes: 6 - Trustees Butler, Caleel, Craig, Kenny, McInerney and
Savino.
Nays: 0 - None.
Absent: 0 - None. Motion carried.
7. C. 4) RESERVOIR B UNDERGROUND STORAGE TANK RESER B
UPGRADE: TANK
Four companies picked up bid packages. Three bids were received.
The upgrade will comply with all mandated requirements for leak
detection, spill, overfill and corrosion protection. This work is of
similar nature to that performed in 1999 at Reservoir A. Funds in the
VILLAGE OF OAK BROOK Minutes Page 9 of 14 June 27, 2000
amount of $27,000 have been budgeted in the Water Systems
Improvements Program (51 -451) for this work.
Motion by Trustee Craig, seconded by Trustee McInerney, to award a
contract, subject to staff review, to the lowest responsible bidder:
Metro Environmental Contractors, Inc., 1111 West Dundee Road,
Wheeling, IL 60090 -3936, to perform the Reservoir -B Underground

attached to the Village Manager's memorandum of June 27, 2000.

7. E. LIBRARY PROJECT - AGREEMENT WITH PHILLIPS SWAGER LIBRARY PRJ
ASSOCIATES: P. SWAGER
Consistent with Board direction, the firm of Phillips Swager Associates
(PSA) has proposed to provide architectural services during
construction of the new library. The pass - through fees for design
engineering consultants (these firms designed major components of the
building under direction of the design architect) are being negotiated by
PSA. Staff anticipates that the total pass - through fees under PSA will
be comparable to those in the contract with Carow Architects Planners.
When those fees are known, an amended PSA contract will be
submitted to the Board for approval. Funds for this project are included
in the Library Building Project Program (10 -425).
Motion by Trustee Butler, seconded by Trustee Savino, to award a
contract, based on a proposal letter, to: Phillips Swager Associates, 40
Shuman Boulevard, Suite 175, Naperville, Illinois 60563, in the not -to-
exceed amount of $64,000 for architectural construction services for
the new Library project, plus pass- through costs for the design
engineering consultants and reimbursable costs. ROLL CALL VOTE:

Savino.
Nays: 0 - None.
Absent: 0 - None. Motion carried.
7. F. CONTRACT RENEWAL - RESIDENTIAL MUNICIPAL WASTE RES. WASTE
COLLECTION: CONTRACT
At its April 11, 2000 regular meeting, the Board authorized staff to
negotiate a contract with BFI Waste Systems of North America, Inc. for
VILLAGE OF OAK BROOK Minutes Page 11 of 14 June 27, 2000
residential municipal waste collection services. Negotiations were
targeted at rates for the various services currently provided (e.g. once
per week curbside collection, twice per week collection, rear door
collection, etc.) as the Board had indicated its interest in maintaining
the current collection program.
Proposed Collection Rates
The negotiations resulted in a new schedule of rates and proposed
agreement. These figures represent increases generally between 16 and
20 percent. The rates take into account several factors affecting BFI's
cost structure. The primary factor is the U.S. Department of Justice
order requiring BFI to divest portions of its business, in particular its
waste transfer stations. Where BFI was able to control its costs from
collection through landfill, it is no longer able to do so now that nearby
landfills have closed. Also the waste transfer stations (from which
waste is transported to distant landfills) are no longer owned by BFI
and are now owned by its competitors. These competitors set the
tipping fees that BFI must pay to use the transfer stations.
Another factor that cannot be discounted is the cost of fuel. Even prior
to the meteoric rise in fuel costs this past spring, the price of fuel in the
Chicagoland area has been steadily increasing over the past one to two
years (as evidence by the Village's own fuel costs). This, along with
the normal increases in labor costs, contribute to the cost of providing
collection service.
Landscape Waste Collection
The negotiated price for landscape waste stickers is $1.75, or $0.25
greater than the current price. The price considers the cost per unit of
landscape waste to provide the service. Because many residents in Oak
Brook make use of landscaping service companies and therefore do not
purchase landscape waste stickers, the cost of the program is spread out
between even fewer residents. The sticker price has not changed since
the inception of the landscape waste collection program in the early
1990's.
Motion by Trustee Caleel, seconded by Trustee Savino, to waive
competitive bidding and renew the existing agreement for Residential
Municipal Waste Collection Services with BFI Waste Systems of North
America, Inc., with a new expiration date of December 31, 2003.

8. INFORMATION & UPDATES: INFO & UPDATE:
A. VILLAGE PRESIDENT: VLLG PRES -
President Bushy thanked the Board for allowing her to represent the
Village at the U. S. Conference of Mayors. She spoke with the Chief
Legal Counsel of the U. S. Conference of Mayors and a representative
from the National Association of Counties who are interested in the e-
commerce and the internet sales tax issue. She will participate in a
workshop group in Washington, D.C. regarding this issue and she also
made a presentation to the Illinois Municipal League on this topic. Oak
Brook is probably the smallest community in the U. S. Conference of
Mayors and due to the assistance of Mayor Daley, the Mayor of
Palatine and Arlington Heights it has been included in the U.S.
Conference of Mayors. Oak Brook's dues are minimal for the
organization because of the size of our community. President Bushy
met with Congressman Hyde to discuss e- commerce and the
internet sales tax issues. President Bushy recently met with
commercial developers and large companies that will assist the Village
in the pursuit of the expansion of 22nd Street under the I -88 toll road.
Senator Walsh and Representative Durkin have worked hard in trying
to get this project proposed.
B. VILLAGE MANAGER: No report was presented.
