Wilson Burnell , Attorney representing Grant WILSON BURNELL Harwig and Mary Ratos explained that as far COMMENTS as he knew that Special Use had not yet been prepared by Attorney Kramer as Attorney Kramer had not yet received conditions to be placed on this Special Use, so the Special Use has not been prepared at this time . Attorney Kramer informed Mr . Burnell that this was correct . Mr . Burnell said that there are 8 considerations which need to be heard before a change in zoning is granted . He said that the existing zoning must be considered which is B-2 , and the existing uses must be considered for that zoning. He commented that right next to the property is a Medical Center and across the road is Hillside Living Center and that there are homes on Kendall Drive near the property; and thus he commented that the proposed use of this property is not compatible with the neighborhood, and he also commented that the property values have not been considered . He also commented that a petition has been signed by 370 people requesting that this zoning matter be re-opened and heard again. In conclusion, he requested that the case be re- opened and all citizen considerations be heard , and he doesn ' t believe that the zoning law has been complied with. Grant Harwig read a letter in which he apologized GRANT HARWIG for those people who did not come forward earlier COMMENTS and speak regarding the zoning change . He read that"the zoning change of granting of variances to allow a muffler/body shop to be constructed on property in close proximity of homes , apartments , retirement homes , a nursing home, a medical facility , and beautiful nature areas as a detriment to our community. " He also read "we do respectfully request that you listen to our concerns, and accept these petitions which contain 375 signatures , we do further respectfully request that you re-open the entire matter for reconsideration. " Page 2 August 13 , 1992 He also read that the petitions read as follows : " We the undersigned , strongly oppose the zoning change or special use variance allowing a body shop to be located on Lot 4, Block 1 ,Countryside Center Unit 1 on West Kendall Drive in Yorkville . We urge the re-opening of discussion and re-instatement of the originally intended zoning for this parcel which protected our well-being and interest . " At this time, Mr . Harwig submitted the original petitions to Clerk Albin . At this time Alderman Bown moved to re-open the zoning MOTION TO for Dean Fisher ' s approval for reconsideration, seconded RE-OPEN by Alderman Jahp. Mayor Kittoe questioned if. a . special DEFEATED committee consisting of a committee from the citizens and a committee from the Council and talk about this further at a Committee Meeting. Alderman Bown said that this _would be appropriate, and that he would like the Plan Commission involved. Alderman Bown explained that the Council acted on recommendations from the Planning Commission and on Council ' s initiative based on what was felt to be appropriate for the community. Alderman Pfister "called for the question, and requested a roll call vote" . Mayor Kittoe clarifed the motion, saying that it was to re-open discussion, get the Plan Commission, City Council , and a committee of the citizens on this . Attorney Kramer replied that it would actually be a Public Hearing for this , and that those citizens who did not speak at the last Council Meeting would have a chance to speak. Clerk Albin called the roll : Bown - Aye Jones - Nay Pfister - Nay Fey - Nay Baird - Nay Clark - Nay Jahp - Aye Motion defeated , 5 nays , 2 ayes . Mary Ratos questioned if a vote was taken without any further citizen comments . She questioned if this vote means that no further comments will be heard, and Mayor Kittoe informed her that this was not the case , and the floor was open to citizen comments . Susan Missing, 412 Center Parkway, questioned if the body shop belongs in a residential area , and she commented that she heard that other meetings regarding this were not "handled properly" . She further commented that the citizens on Countryside Center did not "understand what was going on" . She said that by listening to the Nays and just listening to the way some Council members spoke that Council just wanted to move on. She requested reconsideration of this matter . She also questioned what would happen if Dean Fisher moves . Mayor Kittoe answered her by saying that it is B-2 Special Use for Dean Fisher only, and if he moves the zoning reverts back to B-2 . Rich Lucas who owns a body shop in town commented that he was told by realtors when he was looking for a location for his body shop that there would be no changes in zoning in the area, and that if he wanted to have a body shop in the town of Yorkville "he should move to the industrial park" . Alderman Bown commented that before the meeting goes any further , the citizens should be aware of exactly what has been proposed. Alderman Bown commented that in response to Mr . Lucas ' comments , that a realtor does not make a decision regarding zoning change . Page 3 August 13 , 1992 Alderman Bown reported that this proposal would be coming in as a Planned Unit Development (PUD) and that it would be under Government Regulation. He reported that no changes in appearance and/or operations could be made without the City ' s approval . He also reported that if Dean Fisher was to sell at a later date , and the purchasers would not abide by the PUD/Zoning Regulations then the property would revert to B-2 Zoning, and the muffler and body shops would have to be taken down. Alderman Bown also reported that there have been considerable restrictions placed by the Plan Commission in the planning of this .As far as the Midas Muffler Shop, it was configured so that there is no outside storage of materials , any cars that are not finished at the end of the day have to be placed inside the building, or moved off-site . He reported that the restrictions as far as the body shop would include : limited amount of parking spaces for vehicles being repaired , any- thing that would exceed the number of spaces would have to be stored off-site until Mr . Fisher has room to bring them inside for repair . Alderman Bown reported that the body shop has a completely enclosed paint system, completely enclosed prep deck system, and a special paint-mixing room to protect against contamination (all of these measures taken so that there are not supposed to be any -environnental changes in outside air ) . Alderman Bown commented that he has spoke with people residing or doing business within a block of a Midas Muffler shop and found that there is some noise . Alderman Bown commented also that the body shops of today are different than the ones in the past , in that instead of bending and reshaping metal , most of their business is in replacing old parts with new. Glenda Beringer, 105 Blackberry Lane, commented that her husband is a partner in a body shop in Aurora , which also has a Special Use permit . She commented that her husband ' s body shop is in a gang-infested neighborhood by railroad tracks , and that nobody wants to be in that place . She feels that a body shop belongs in an industrial area . She commented that the noise level is very high, and in the summer the doors are open and there are fumes and dust . She commented that the residents of the nursing home across the street"will not be able to go out on their patios without smelling the fumes" . She also commented that their body shop abides by governmental standards , but that OSHA has only inspected their body shop once, the day in opened five years ago . She commented that because of government cutbacks the City should be prepared to make inspections . Pete Malovich, 106 Blackberry Lane , wanted it noted that he took exception to Alderman Bown ' s speech as far as Alderman Bown using the word "supposed" , He explained that he is a retired mechanical engineer, that nobody can assure him that the equipment going in the body shop will be fool-proof , without paint sprays, noise and the such. He also commented that if it is going to be such a nice place why a fence needed to be put up. He also commented that the Council is supposed to represent the people in Yorkville , not one person, and he also said that if this goes through "we ' ll see who gets re-elected. " Charmaine Silka, 229 Hillcrest , questioned the access to the Midas and Carstar would be . Mayor Kittoe responded by saying there would be a de-acceleration lane off of Route 34 as well as an acceleration lane , and that nothing will be on Kendall at the back end of the property . Alderman Baird commented that there will be one access , with a 150 feet de-acceleration lane. Page 4 August 13 , 1992 Alderman Baird commented that this proposal was looked at very carefully over the last four months , and that alot of time was put into this , and that Council would not approve this if they felt it detrimental to the community. Mary Ratos commented that she bears no ill-feelings toward either Dean Fisher or the Council , and she is aware of the time and effort invested in this , however, she feels that the reality of a body shop in that location is not proper. She requested that all personal feelings aside, that this case be re-opened for more testimony from citizens . Phyllis Oldenburg, 211 W. Kendall Drive, comments that there is alot of available land in the area which would be more appropriate for these businesses . She commented that all she is asking is that the businesses are located in a more appropriate area, "not in a residential area" . Dave Hejmanek questioned Dean Fisher why he chose this particular property to place his businesses on. Dean Fisher responded by first of all commenting that he was very disappointed by all this . He explained that he looked the proximity of the property and how it affected everyone surrounding it, and that he is aware of the sterotype body shop with junk cars all over, and that his proposal is for a "collision repair center" which is unlike body shops of the past . He commented that he presented evidence to the Plan Commission to show why he should be allowed to have his businesses there . He explained that he would have a 1 . 2 million dollar build-up for this project , and he also commented that under B-2 zoning he could come in and erect a tin shed on the lot , pave all 2 .4 acres , and put a rental car facility there with 50 cars a day, and park them 24 hours a day. He also commented that he could put a billiard hall on that property. He explained that what he proposed would look as nice or nicer than surrounding buildings , with his plans to include designer block and brick, designer fencing , and landscaping. He commented that in order to compete in the future with "collision repair centers"' and modernize , he needs 8 to 10 employees , more computerization. He commented that he will have carbon prep-decks that will not exhaust to the outside air,down-draft spray booths which would handle any fume problem. He also explained the earth-berming system he would use at the back of the property, no gravel on the property, lined parking spaces , and he would be leaving a 40 foot grassy area for the existing water retention problem. He commented that he has shown evidence that he will be clean and protect the environment . He also commented that his current body shop is located next to his house, and his children are fine, and that there is not a "blade of dead grass" in his yard . Mr . Fisher explained he needed a retail outlet, not an industrial park, for these businesses . Mr . Fisher believes that he could have put up the businesses , and no-one would even be able to tell what they are. Mr . Fisher commented that under a PUD he has to abide by strict regulations . Wilson Burnell questioned what evidence was brought before the Plan Commission regarding this as far as equipment , and he doesn ' t believe a sufficient hearing was held to cover the points which need to be considered such as EPA and property values . Dean Fisher answered that he showed Plan Commission all plans and answered all their questions , and he commented that the body shops of the past have set a poor example in this business . Page 5 August 13 , 1992 Edna , from the Senior Citizens home questioned where Mr . Fisher will keep the cars , and he answered that he may maintain his body shop by his home for additional storage, or he may even rent a building in the industrial park for this purpose. Casey Duffy, representing the Senior Citizen ' s Housing, showed an affidavit signed by Cheryl Albin, City Clerk, showing that she had sent notification to the adjacent property owners , and he commented that although the legal requirements have been met , he questioned the "moral obligation" to all surrounding residents and property owners . He felt that only notifying the three adjacent property owners this action was inappropriate . He also commented that Dr . Hatcher didn ' t get a chance to speak at the Council meeting when the zoning was passed, until it was too late . He feels that this matter should be reconsidered on a "moral obligation basis" . He also commented that the residents of the senior citizen homes are afraid of the fumes . Attorney Kramer responded by saying that all of the legal requirements were met regarding publication, however he understood that there was some confusion at the July 23 , 1992 Council meeting as far as when Dr . Hatcher , Mr . Missing and a couple of Countryside residents should have spoken. Attorney Kramer suggested to the Mayor and Council because of the confusion on July 23 , that a Building and Zoning Committee Meeting be set up to take down the citizen ' s concerns . Glenda Beringer commented that although Dean Fisher runs a very clean business , and will have highly sophisticated equipment in his shop, she is concerned as far as who will inspect his business to assure the community of it ' s safe environment . Alderman Bown responded by saying that because it is PUD the City has an obligation to make sure that the business maintains the standards which it goes in under . Ms . Beringer questioned if the City has an employee that is qualified to do this type of testing . Alderman Bown explained that not at the present time, however, he explained that training of City employees is an on- going function. Dean Fisher at this time made a gesture to include 6 or so people from the concerned citizens to follow his proposal through the PUD stage and to be involved with this . At this time an unidentified citizen questioned Dean Fisher if he has enough confidence in his operation to have the City Council re-open this matter for public discussion. Dean Fisher responded by saying that when the vote took place to approve his zoning request , he was under contractural obligation, that he had put money down, and was under contract with developers , and he commented that if the B-2 Special Use is rescinded there will be alot of problems . He also commented that Midas Muffler would be very upset . He once again offered to involve a group of citizens to go through this with him, in the hopes that he can provide some comfort level . He commented that he has spent 6 months working on this , sacrificed his family, and spent thousands of dollars to get to this point , and he will not "dry up like a prune and go away" . Jenny Lund , 122 Blackberry, conceded that while she knows Dean Fisher runs a very good business , she was unaware of his plans when she recently purchased her home, and she doesn ' t believe this type of business belongs there. Page 6 August 13 , 1992 Pete Malovich said that he doesn ' t understand what is going on as far as the Council sitting there, and Mr. Fisher threatens that he is "going to do something to the community" and Council sat there and did nothing. Mr . Malovich no one had the "guts to get up and say something" , and this point , Alderman Jones got up to speak, and Mr . Malovich ordered him to sit down, saying he wasn ' t finished speaking yet . Mr. Malovich continued by saying that Mr . Fisher was threatening the people of Countryside by telling them what could have been put in that location, such as a "tin shed" . Mr . Malovich commented that this proposal of Dean Fisher ' s is a "gamble" . At this time Wilson Burnell commented that he would like to disavow himself from any of these statements . He further commented that these statements were out of order, and Mayor Kittoe thanked him. Alderman Jones began by apologizing, and then spoke in defense of Alderman Bown . He commented that Alderman Bown made the Fishers "jump through so many hoops" and that initially Alderman Bown wasn ' t for this , and that he should be commended, instead of being verbally assaulted . Alderman Jones commented that he himself was reluctant as first also, but he is so confident now that if it were possible, he would let the body shop locate next to him. He commented that he feels the Fishers would be an asset to the community and to the tax base , and feels it will look very nice. Phyllis Oldenberg commented that she feels re-zoning should only be used as a last resort when there is no other property available, and she feels that this property is unsuitable for Fisher ' s proposal . Richard Lucas questioned if a business man like himself would be able to find property in town, could he get it rezoned for a body shop too? Mayor Kittoe informed him that each situation is looked at individually, and he would have to present his application to Plan Commission. Dick Missing, 412 Center Parkway commented that no-one came to the people in Countryside asking if they wanted a body shop. Mr . Missing also commented that because nobody understood when to speak at the July 23 meeting, he feels the whole thing should be re-opened . Mayor Kittoe commented that Mr . Missing had said he didn ' t know about the body shop until it was too late , however, the April 15 Plan Commission Minutes shows Mr . Missing present . Mr . Missing commented that he was in attendance against the Purcell petition. Mayor Kittoe noted that Mr . Missing did not speak against the Fisher petition at the Fisher Public Hearing held that evening also . Mr . Missing said that April 15 was the first he was aware of Fisher ' s proposal , and said that there wasn ' t anything in the paper about it . Mr . Missing then corrected himself , saying that he didn ' t see anything in the paper about it . At this time Alderman Bown commented that there are legal notices placed in the paper for all Public Hearings . Alderman Bown commented that it would be very difficult to inform all of his constituents of everything coming up. Mr . Missing commented that the legal notices are hidden in small print at the back of the paper. Alderman Bown read an article taken from page 8 of the July 2 , 1992 from the Kendall County Record . The article reported that the Council had voted to create a Special Use Category ( see attached article) . Some residents said that they saw the article but they were not sure about the location, as the paper said "west of Kentucky Fried Chicken" regarding the location of Fisher ' s proposal . An unidentified person questioned how the vote went earlier in the evening regarding re-opening the case . At this time, the citizens present questioned why they were still sitting there, as the vote had been taken. Page 7 August 13 , 1992 An unidentified citizen commented that it is sad that the Council is taking business over property owners . Bob Johnson, 120 Blackberry Lane, questioned Attorney Kramer regarding any recourse . Attorney Kramer informed him that the Mayor had just been discussing setting up a Building and Zoning Committee Meeting, to give a forum for the citizens to express their opinions, also to have Mr . Fisher attend to address their concerns . Mayor Kittoe said at this time he would like to set up a committee involving the citizens , Council , and Dean Fisher together to meet on this . Mayor Kittoe suggested the citizens get together 6 people to sit in on this , and be involved . Mary Ratos once again commented that she doesn ' t doubt that Dean Fisher will have a good business , but stressed that it belongs in another, more suitable location. She also comments that it seems like Council doesn ' t care to listen, since a vote was taken so early in the meeting. Ken Sidler , 203 W. Kendall , proposed a recount or a re-vote MTG. SET before the citizens leave. Alderman Pfister requested the (8/20 ) Clerk to read the motion back, including the roll call vote results . Clerk Albin did so .
