APPROVED BY CITY ADMINISTRATOR: Michael SIGNATURE
Guttman
In May of 2023, the City approved an agreement with Pace for a pilot program to offer subsidized Ub-
er rides for registered Ride DuPage riders at a discounted rate. This was a convenient option for those
riders who are physically able to use a passenger vehicle and do not require the use of a Pace bus.
The program requires a rider to pay for the first $5 of a trip and anything beyond $25. The City then
covers the cost of the trip between $5 and $25. The pilot program has been utilized by riders in West
Chicago as a viable alternative to a traditional bus.
The pilot program has been in place for one year and Pace has determined it to be successful. The
program has now transitioned for it to be a permanent program affiliated with Ride DuPage. The pro-
gram will also partner not only Uber but other transportation network companies, such as “Go Go
Grandparent’.
Pace has submitted a Rideshare Access Program Reimbursement Agreement for execution by the
City.
ACTION PROPOSED:

RIDESHARE ACCESS PROGRAM REIMBURSEMENT AGREEMENT
This Rideshare Access Program Reimbursement Agreement (“Agreement”) is between Pace, the
Suburban Bus Division of the Regional Transportation Authority, an Illinois municipal corporation
(“Pace”), and the City of West Chicago, an Illinois municipal corporation (“Sponsor”).
Pace was established under the Regional Transportation Authority Act (70 ILCS 3615/1.01 et seq.)
to aid and assist public transportation in the six-county northeastern Illinois area consisting of
Cook, DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry, and Will Counties.
Sponsor is a participating sponsor of Ride DuPage, a coordinated paratransit program operating in
DuPage County, Illinois.
Article VII, section 10 of the Constitution of the State of Illinois (Ill. Const. art. VII, § 10)
authorizes units of local government to contract or otherwise associate among themselves in any
manner not prohibited by law or ordinance.
The Intergovernmental Cooperation Act (5 ILCS 220/1 et seq.) authorizes and encourages
intergovernmental cooperation.
The parties are units of local government within the meaning of article VII, section 10 of the
Constitution of the State of Illinois (Ill. Const. art. VII, § 10) and have the power and authority to
enter into this Agreement.
Pace has entered into written agreements with certain transportation network companies (“TNCs”)
for reimbursement by Pace to the TNCs for service provided through the Pace Rideshare Access
Program or similar program providing for increased access to rideshare options to persons with
disabilities (“RAP Agreements”). Each RAP Agreement provides that Pace may incorporate other
locally sponsored programs into the RAP Agreement to subsidize non-ADA eligible rider trips
with varying fares or co-pays.
The participating sponsors of Ride DuPage have established a rideshare access program that began
on February 27, 2024 (“Program”).
Sponsor wants Pace to incorporate the Program into each RAP Agreement and, in connection
therewith, will reimburse Pace for the Sponsor-subsidized portion of the cost of a trip that non-
ADA Program riders take with a TNC.
In consideration of the foregoing recitals, the mutual promises contained in this Agreement, and
other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
1. Effective Date. This Agreement will be in effect beginning on the date that Pace signs this
Agreement (“Effective Date”). If a party signs this Agreement but fails to date its signature, the
date that the other party receives the signing party’s signature on this Agreement will be deemed
to be the date that the signing party signed this Agreement.
2. Term. This Agreement will remain in effect until 11:59 p.m. Central Time on August 31,
2033 unless earlier terminated in accordance with this Agreement.

Officer Activities
#2401466 On August 8", a "flash dispatch" was broadcast over the radio about a road rage
incident that occurred in Warrenville and involved a handgun. The dispatch provided a vehicle
description and registration plate number. Officer Sauseda observed the vehicle traveling
northbound on Neltnor Blvd. around Dayton Ave. and requested other units. Officers Mielke
and Chassagne arrived to assist in a high-risk traffic stop on Neltnor Blvd. near Washington St.
The Officer ordered two occupants out of the vehicle and detained them. In plain view on the
driver's side floorboard was a loaded Glock 9mm handgun. Warrenville officers arrived and
placed the driver under arrest for Aggravated Assault.
#2401530 On August 17", Officers Castro, Mielke, Serrano, and Sauseda responded to a
burglar alarm at the Boost Mobile store at 517 Main St. The offenders shattered the front door.
Officers searched the store for offenders with negative results. The store owners advised they
viewed the surveillance camera and knew the offender. The owners provided a video showing
the suspect walking in front of the store, throwing rocks at the door, shattering it, entering the
store, and removing two phones before exiting the business. Officer Serrano located the suspect
later in the day, placed him under arrest, and transported him to the Police Station. The suspect
refused to make a statement but did provide a DNA sample. The suspect was also wanted on a
Retail Theft warrant out of DuPage County. The DuPage County State's Attorney's Office
approved a Burglary charge against the suspect. Officers fingerprinted, photographed, and
transported the offender to the DuPage County Jail.
#2401285 On July 12", Officer Rigler received information that several stolen vehicles, covered
by tarps, may be located in the 2500 block of Enterprise Cir. Officers Solis and Cummings, and
Detective Montgomery arrived to assist. A vehicle, not covered by a trap, was in the back of
the lot. The uncovered vehicle did not have a registration plate, and a check of the Vehicle
Identification Number showed the vehicle as stolen from Peru, IL. Detective Herbert obtained
search warrants for the tarped vehicles, which officers executed. All of these vehicles were
confirmed as stolen as well. The stolen cars were reported in Naperville, Peru, Glendale
Heights, and Palos Hills. Officers also obtained a search warrant to seize a surveillance camera
that overlooked the stolen cars. Investigators located evidence on social media accounts of the
motor vehicle theft suspects and obtained search warrants for these accounts. Investigators used
the surveillance camera video and social media accounts to verify the identity of the suspects
and that they had stolen several motor vehicles, including those at the location on Enterprise
Cir. On August 14", Detective Herbert observed one of the suspects driving. Detective
Montgomery and Officer O'Neil conducted a stop of the vehicle at Dunham and North Ave. in
St. Charles and took the suspect into custody. He was transported to the Police Station but
declined to make any statements. The DuPage County State's Attorney's Office approved six
counts of Aggravated Unlawful Possession of a Stolen Motor Vehicle against the suspect. The
juvenile offender was detained at the Kane County Youth Home.

#2401424 On August 2", Officer Frommert took a report from the complainant of two subjects
attempting to break into gaming machines at Egg Yolk Café, 100 S. Neltnor Blvd. Surveillance
video shows the two subjects enter the gaming area, where the first suspect pulls a
prybar or screwdriver from his pants and attempts to pry open the gaming machine at which he
was sitting. After an unsuccessful attempt, the first subject hands the pry bar to the second
suspect, who attempts to pry open the machine at which he is sitting. Unable to access the
machines, the suspects left the area after causing damage between $2,000.00 and $3,000.00.
Officers learned that one of the suspects drove a red Tacoma pickup truck. On August 12",
Officer Frommert stopped the same red Tacoma pickup truck on Brown St. The driver was
confirmed to be one of the suspects from the Egg Yolk Café. He was placed in custody,
transported to the Police Station, and interviewed, where he admitted to attempting to break into
the machine for money with which to gamble. On August 26", Officer Frommert learned that
both suspects were in custody at the Police Station on unrelated charges. Officer Solis and
Frommert interviewed the second suspect, who admitted the video showed his friend and
himself. The offender admitted he was frustrated with not having money and admitted to his
actions. The DuPage County State's Attorney's Office approved charges of Burglary and
Possession of Burglary Tools against both suspects. Officers fingerprinted, photographed,
assigned court dates, and released the offenders from custody.
