The ﬁ rst reported permanent structure in the area was built in 1833 by Earl Adams. The structure was located south of the Fox River, atop of the hill which is now home to the Kendall County Courthouse. During the same time, Lyman and Burr Bristol began to develop property north of the Fox River. During the years 1834 – 1836 the communities of Bristol, north of the Fox River, and Yorkville, south of the Fox River, were platted. These communities continued to grow as similar, but separate entities for over 100 years with Bristol incorporating as a village in 1861 and Yorkville in 1873. The two entities merged as the United City of Yorkville in 1957. Business in Yorkville Business in the area began in 1834, with the opening of a saw mill operated by John Schneider in Bristol. This mill produced lumber which facilitated the growth of both residential and commercial buildings in both Bristol and Yorkville. Despite being in close proximity, both Bristol and Yorkville had prosperous business districts. Yorkville’s was located along Route 47, also known as Bridge Street, and Bristol’s along East Main Street, as it is known today. Yorkville’s business district began to obtain prominence over Bristol’s in the mid 1800s. This was the result of Yorkville being named the county seat along with the addition of the CB&Q railroad, in 1870, whose tracks ran immediately south of the Fox River. Most of the businesses during this time, such as Squire Dingee’s pickle factory, the Yorkville Ice Company, and the Renbehn Brothers button factory, took advantage of the natural resources provided by the Fox River. Yorkville’s downtown continued to be the City’s only business district until 1972 when Countryside Center opened north of the River at the intersection of US 34 and Route 47. In 2004, the process began to redevelop this site and it is currently proposed to develop as a mixed-use town center. Other commercial and industrial properties have followed since Countryside Center, mainly along US 34 and Route 47. The 1970s was also marked by the opening of the Fox Industrial Park on the south end of town. In the 1990s the Wrigley Corporation opened its world headquarters of its Amurol Confection Division just north of Route 47 and Cannonball Trail. This spurred other industrial development in the area, including FE Wheaton Corporation. In 2007, Kendall Marketplace, at the intersection of US 34 and Cannonball Trail, opened along with ground breaking of the Rush Copley Medical Center, on US 34 west of Kendall Marketplace. 1922 Map of Yorkville 1922 Map of Bristol Downtown Yorkville early 1900s United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 62008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT Schools in Yorkville The ﬁ rst school house was built in the 1830s in Bristol with Yorkville building its ﬁ rst school house in 1837. In 1883, Bristol and Yorkville became a uniﬁ ed school district and constructed a new school, which housed grades ﬁ rst grade thru high school, in 1888. In the 1950s the school system expanded with a new high school followed by a new grade school, shutting down the original school built in 1888. This school, renamed Parkview School was reopened in the 20 years later, in the 1970s, due to the increase in school aged population. Parkview School was sold in 1992 and is now Parkview Christian Academy, a private school. The current public school system, which covers part of Kendall and Kane County (ﬁ ve communities), now has ﬁ ve grade schools, with three just recently opening in 2005, 2006 and 2007, one intermediate school (grades 4-6) which opened in 2004, one middle school (grades 6-8), a junior high school (grades 7-8, to open in Fall of 2008), and one high school in which a new building was built in 2002. Civic Life in Yorkville Civic improvements began in 1888 with a new ﬁ re house and city water service to in town residents, along with the new school which opened in the same year. The Beecher Community center was built in 1981 on the old game farm which was deeded to the City. The new Yorkville Public Library was also built on this land immediately south of the Beecher Center in 1983 due to the expansion of the bridge over the Fox River to a four lane bridge. The library completed a 34,000 square foot expansion in 2007. Kendall County History Kendall County was formed in 1841 with Yorkville holding the county seat until 1845. A special election 14 years later, in 1859, brought the county seat back to Yorkville as it continues to be today. The Kendall County Courthouse was originally built in 1864 on the same location it is today. Despite a ﬁ re in 1887, the exterior walls of the courthouse are still the same ones built in 1864. Kendall County ofﬁ ces have expanded since the Courthouse was originally built in 1864. Additions were added to the courthouse in the 1950s along with satellite buildings/ofﬁ ce space built in 1975 across the street and a new jail, at US 34 and Cannonball Trail, opening in 1992. In 1997, a new courthouse was built to service Kendall County on US 34, and expansion plans are currently underway for the property on US 34 in 2008. The historic courthouse still remains in use serving as ofﬁ ces for other county departments.

Introduction DRAFT A Comprehensive Plan is a document prepared by the Plan Commission which sets forth policies for the future development of the community. It is the result of considerable study and analysis of existing physical, economic, and social characteristics, and includes a projection of future needs and conditions. The value and purpose of a Comprehensive Plan is to rationally and objectively identify the timing and location of land and infrastructure development - something that zoning and subdivision regulations alone cannot accomplish. However, a Comprehensive Plan is not merely a technical document; it is a community’s vision for its future. The overall purpose of the plan is to create a vision and strategy for the management of the City’s growth over the next ﬁ ve to ten years. Through the use of written text, illustrations and maps, this plan will provide an image of the type of community Yorkville wishes to be in the years to come. It will suggest objectives and action plans for accomplishing these goals, and will serve as a manual for maintaining and improving the quality of life in the City. Most importantly, the Comprehensive Plan is a guide. In order for the people of Yorkville to accomplish the vision set forth in this document, the plan must be used and its recommendations must be acted upon. The role of the Comprehensive Plan is to serve as a guidebook for planners and government ofﬁ cials as to the type of development that should be permitted and encouraged in the City, realizing that each new development creates a lasting impact on the City’s character. The plan should also inﬂ uence policy decisions in a broad range of areas including, but not limited to, the following: land use, transportation, infrastructure and utilities, environmental and agricultural preservation, economic development, recreation and open space, and housing. Finally, the plan should be reevaluated and edited periodically in light of changing conditions so that it remains the true vision of the community. The 2008 Comprehensive Plan is intended to guide the community for the next 5 to 10 years at which point an update should be considered by the United City of Yorkville. 1.1 Intent 1994 Comprehensive Plan Cover United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 102008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT 1.2 Methodology Yorkville’s ﬁ rst Comprehensive Plan was completed in 1974 with updates in 1994, 2002 and 2005. The most current comprehensive plans guide growth and decision making for the community north of the Fox River, 2002 Comprehensive Plan, and south of the Fox River, 2005 Comprehensive Plan. In the summer of 2007, it was decided by the Plan Commission that given the population growth, in which population has increased over two-fold since the last Census in 2000 and is projected to continue steadily increasing, the existing comprehensive plans needed to be updated. The Plan Commission also recognized that the two current comprehensive plans should be merged into one cohesive document for the entire Yorkville planning area. Following the decision to update the comprehensive plan, the Plan Commission aided by the City Council formulated a Citizens Advisory Committee to represent a cross-section of the Yorkville community, each with diverse and unique interests in the comprehensive plan process. Approximately thirty members were appointed to the Citizens Advisory Committee. The participating members and their constituency group afﬁ liation are listed below. Ron Kalina, Ward 1 Constituency Group; George Gilson, Ward 1 Constituency Group; Fred DuSell, Ward 2 Constituency Group; Tom Gilmour, Ward 2 Constituency Group; Art Prochaska, Ward 3 Constituency Group; Mary Unterbrunner, Ward 3 Constituency Group; Peter Newton, Ward 4 Constituency Group; Jim Ratos, Ward 4 Constituency Group; Jake Cooper, Agriculture Constituency Group; Brent Ekwinski, Banking/Financial Constituency Group; Richard Scheffrahn, Engineering Constituency Group; Nancy Wilson, Healthcare Constituency Group; Rich Guerard, Home Builder Constituency Group; Kathy Jones, Manufacturing Constituency Group; Megan Andrews, Natural Resource Constituency Group; Paula Wilkinson, Realtor Constituency Group; Susan Kritzberg, Retail/Business Constituency Group; Bette Schoenholtz, Seniors Constituency Group; Dave Mogle, United City of Yorkville Parks and Recreation; Victoria Coveny, Yorkville Park Board; Deborah Horaz, Yorkville Park Board; Donald Schwartzkopf, United City of Yorkville Police Department; Angela Zubko, Kendall County Planning, Building and Zoning; Fran Klaas, Kendall County Highway Engineer; Dave Dockstader, School Board #115 (Education Constituency Group); Ralph Pﬁ ster, Yorkville-Bristol Sanitary District; Thomas Muth, Fox Metro Sanitary District; Lynn Dubajic, Yorkville Economic Development Corporation; Don Duffy, Yorkville Chamber of Commerce Citizens Advisory Committee Framework Meeting of the Citizens Advisory Committee United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 112008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT Beginning in November of 2007, the Citizens Advisory Committee met every month, either the third Thursday or the fourth Wednesday of the month at the Yorkville Public Library from 5:30 – 7:30 PM, to discuss a component of the comprehensive plan. This discussion aided in formulating the goals, objectives, and action plans chapter along with the land use plan chapter. Topics of discussion included natural resources, infrastructure, community facilities, non-residential land use and residential land use. Given the diversity of the Citizens Advisory Committee, some members of the committee served as an “expert” in a speciﬁ c topic aiding in discussion and answering questions during that meeting. Each meeting had a similar format with most beginning with a guest presentation to familiarize the group with the meeting topic. The second half of the meeting was devoted to group discussion. The members of Citizens Advisory Committee in attendance were split into four discussion groups. These groups of 5 – 6 committee members were led by staff in their discussion. Staff also recorded the discussion through hand-written notes. Following the individual group discussion, each group was given a chance to report back to the entire Citizens Advisory Committee on what they discussed. Meetings devoted to land use were of a different format, as the committee had most of the meeting to discuss the topic and each discussion group produced their own land use map. Time was given at the end to report back to the committee as a whole. Information was taken from all of the hand-written group discussion notes and compiled with common threads becoming goals and/or objectives for a chapter of the comprehensive plan. These goals and objectives can been seen in Chapter 3. The discussion notes were also included in the meeting summaries. Also, each discussion groups’ land use map was referenced as City Staff completed the Land Use Plan Map seen in Chapter 4. Citizens Advisory Committee members were also given the opportunity to formally comment on the goals, objectives, action plans, land use classiﬁ cations, and land use map drafted by staff either through write in comment or through consensus building at the committee meetings. 1.2 Methodology Citizens Advisory Committee members working on a draft land use map Sample draft land use map drawn up by a discussion group United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 122008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT The general public was also given the opportunity to comment at two open houses. The ﬁ rst open house was held on Wednesday March 5th, 2008 at the Yorkville Public Library from 4:00 – 8:00 PM. The March Open House drew over 100 total attendees, including Citizens Advisory Committee members, City Council members, Plan Commission members, staff, and residents. Of the over 100 attendees, 70 of them were Yorkville residents. Attendees were encouraged to comment on the natural resources, infrastructure, and community facilties section of the Goals and Objectives chapter of the Plan. Citizens were able to comment orally to Staff and other City representatives or through a hand-written comment card. Both oral and written comments were provided in a summary report to the Plan Commission and the Citizens Advisory Committee following the meeting. The second open house was held on Thursday June 19th, 2008 at the Yorkville Public Library from 4:00 – 8:00 PM. The June Open House drew over 75 total attendees, including Citizens Advisory Committee members, City Council members, Plan Commission members, staff, and residents. Of the over 75 attendees, over half of them were Yorkville residents. Attendees were encouraged to help prioritize all of the goals and objectives, presented in draft form, from that chapter of the plan. To prioritize the goals and objectives, attendees were given six blue dots, or stickers, which they stuck to poster boards displaying the goals and objectives. Attendees were asked to place stickers by the goal or objective which they felt was the highest priority for the City of Yorkville to implement. Attendees were able to vote multiple times for one objective. Top vote getters were: Section, Goal, and ObjectiveNumber of Votes Infrastructure, 2, 2.119 Natural Resources, 4, 4.212 Infrastructure, 2, 2.212 Land Use, 1, 1.511 Infrastructure, 4, 4.17 Community Facilties, 1, 1.37 Please note that this is not an exhaustive list of the goals and objectives, just the top six vote getters, as their was a tie for ﬁ fth place.

For further information on the Goals and Objectives listed, please reference Chapter 3. Goals and Objectives on pages 33 - 80. Also, please note, that Chapter 3. Goals and Objectives is not ordered by priortity. Attendees at the June Open House were also able to comment orally to Staff and other City representatives or through a hand-written comment card. Comments were provided in a summary report to the Plan Commission following the meeting. Following the open house in June, changes were made to the draft per citizen comment from the June Open House. At the July 9, 2008 Plan Commission meeting the Citizens Advisory Committee gave its recommendation for approval of the submitted draft of the comprehensive plan to the Plan Commission. Plan Commissioners were given the opportunity to comment, review, and revise the draft of the Comprehensive Plan following this meeting. The Plan Commission has since ﬁ nalized the document, in its current presented form, and presented it to City Council for approval. A public hearing was held at the City Council meeting for additonal public comment. Flyer for the June Open House June Open House United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 142008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT 1.3 Planning Area Illinois Municipal Code states that a Plan Commission has the authority to prepare and recommend a comprehensive plan for present and future growth and redevelopment to be adopted by the City. The Comprehensive Plan, “may be made applicable, by the terms thereof, to land situated within the corporate limits and contiguous territory not more than one and one half miles beyond the corporate limits and not included in any municipality” (65 ILCS 5/11 – 12 – 5). Given this and the existing and proposed boundary agreements with surrounding municipalities (Millbrook, Montgomery, Oswego, Plano, and Sugar Grove), the United City of Yorkville Planning Area is generally, US 30 to the north, Boundary Agreement lines with Montgomery and Oswego (north of the Fox River) and Grove Road (south of the Fox River) to the east, Helmar Road to the south, and Eldamain Road (north of the Fox River) and Highpoint Road (south of the Fox River) to the west. This area encompasses approximately 47,970 acres, or approximately 75 square miles. A map of the United City of Yorkville’s municipal boundaries and 1.5 mile surrounding planning area can be seen on the following page.

The mechanisms established to engage residents, businesses, youth, seniors, and special populations, help leaders make decisions. Our strategic location will encourage continued development and expansion of the community, for which we have effectively planned. Successful planning efforts have achieved a mutually advantageous balance among retail, service, industrial and residential development. Such plans, in combination with development exaction programs, assist Yorkville in maintaining a reasonable tax base to fund services. Foresight has also prevented growth from outpacing quality service provision to an increasingly diverse population—requiring housing alternatives to accommodate a variety of income levels and accessibility preferences. Development will challenge residents’ ability to effectively traverse the community. However, the City continues to encourage neighborhood connections through its planning processes—ensuring opportunities for vehicular, pedestrian and non-vehicular travel to avoid congestion, primarily created by Route 47. Blending community with nature through beautiﬁ cation efforts remains a high priority. By requiring developments to provide and improve large open spaces and by creating walking paths along the river, Yorkville has ensured there is room for both recreation and relaxation in beautiful public areas. We realize that growth, diversity and state funding limitations are all critical challenges for the community to navigate in order to maintain Yorkville’s reputation for an excellent public school system. Finally, recognizing the importance of collaborative relationships to Yorkville’s long-term success, we seek to foster an environment of mutual beneﬁ t among and between elected ofﬁ cials, staff, citizens, and other state and local governments.

Existing Conditions DRAFT The following sections contain community proﬁ le information establishing the existing conditions for the United City of Yorkville planning area at the time of this Comprehensive Plan Update in 2008. The information presented in these sections was also given to the members of the Citizens Advisory Committee to help them in formulating goals and objectives and in their land use decisions. This chapter is intended to provide the background information necessary to aid in understanding the policy and guideline decisions made in the rest of the document. It will also allow one to follow the Citizens Advisory Committee’s decision making process. United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 182008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT 2.1 Demographic & Socioeconomic A 2008 report by the United States Census Bureau identiﬁ ed Kendall County, Illinois, in which the United City of Yorkville is the county seat, as the fastest growing county in the nation from 2000 to 2007 with a 77.5% increase in population during this time. A 2006 report by the United States Census Bureau identiﬁ ed Kendall County, as the 4th fastest growing county in the nation with a 45.8% increase in population from April 2000 to June 2005. These two reports show sustained rapid growth in the county during the 7 year period particularly from 2005-2007 in which the rate of growth increased 31.7%. The City of Yorkville has exceeded this rate of growth with an 81% increase in population from 2000 to 2005 as seen in Figure 2.1. This change in population along with the changing physical landscape that comes with it, were key identiﬁ ers for the need for an update to the existing comprehensive plan. Due to this, demographic and socioeconomic characteristics, along with the additional sections of this chapter, are an integral part of the 2008 Comprehensive Plan Update as it tells the story of were Yorkville has been in the past and where it may go in the years to come. Information was provided by the United States Census Bureau along with supplemental information from the Yorkville Economic Development Corporation. Census information is based on the City boundaries, not the entire planning area; however these statistics will be considered representative of the entire Yorkville Planning area. The information provided by the Yorkville Economic Development Corporation is based on a 3 mile radius drawn around the intersection of US 34 and Route 47. While this trade area may take other municipalities into account it is the best representation of Yorkville’s municipal boundaries with the most up to date information. Additional demographic and socioeconomic trends strictly from the 2000 Census can be found in Appendix 7.1.

In 2005, Yorkville had a population of 11,204, which as was previously mentioned, is an 81% increase in population in 5 years. In 15 years, since 1990, the population has increased 185% from 3,925 to 11,204. Figure 2.1 Change in Population Figure 2.2 Population Projection Following the 2003 Special Census, the United City of Yorkville staff has done a population projection based on the number of housing permits issued each year and the average number of individuals per household. This ratio of individuals to household is also tailored to the type of housing unit which was built. Since a Special Census was done in 2005, the population projection for the United City of Yorkville, Figure 2.2, shows the projected population by year from 2006 – post 2012. This projection takes into account the entire planning area, not just the municipal boundaries as with the Census. At the end of 2007, Yorkville had a projected population of 15,240 residents, a 10.6% increase from 2006 and a 36% increase in population from the last Special Census in 2005. It is projected that by 2012 Yorkville’s population will increase by 216% since 2007, with a population of over 48,000 residents. Beyond 2012, Yorkville’s population is projected to increase up to 64,000, a 319% increase since 2007. 0 10,000 20,000 30,000 40,000 50,000 60,000 70,000 2006200720082009201020112012Post 2012 United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 202008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT 2.1 Demographic & Socioeconomic 0% 5% 10% 15% 20% 25% 30% 35% 40% 45% Under 5 5 _ 1920 _ 44 45 _ 6465 and older 2000 Census 2003 Special Census 2005 Special Census Figure 2.3 Change in Population by Age The most notable trends in age demographics is that the age bracket of 20 – 44 decreased by 1.8%, the age bracket of 45 – 64 increased by 2.4%, and the age bracket of 65 and older decreased by 1.7% in 5 years, from 2000-2005. The increase in 45-64 year old age group is common through out the United States as the “baby-boom” generation continues to age. However, 71% of the Yorkville population, in 2005, is under 44 years of age, identifying that Yorkville continues to attract and retain families of whom the majority of the population in these age brackets.

This trend shows the white population decreasing by 3.2% in 5 years from 98.2% of the population to 95.0% while the African- American and Other categories increased by 0.9% and 1.8%, respectively. There are two important things to note in this inventory. First, the four percentages listed may add to more than 100% as individuals were allowed to report more than one race. Also, the Hispanic population is not included in this information, as the United States Census Bureau tracks this information separately, as Hispanic is considered to be a cultural representation as opposed to a racial representation. However, in 2005, 6.6% of the population (of any race) is considered to be Hispanic. This is a 3.7% increase since 2000, the most notable trend in Yorkville’s racial/cultural dynamic, which is consistent with the national trend as the Hispanic population is the fastest growing throughout the nation. United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 222008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT 2.1 Demographic & Socioeconomic One of the few economic trends surveyed by the Census Bureau in a Special Census is the amount of total housing units and the occupancy and tenure rates of these units. In 2000, there were 2,291 housing units which increased to 3,321 in 2003 and 4,443 in 2005. In the ﬁ ve years, 2000- 2005, there was a 94% increase in the total housing units in Yorkville. This trend mimics the substantial population growth along with the increasing amount of land within Yorkville’s municipal boundaries as the City still continues to annex. However, as the amount of housing units rise as does the amount of vacant units, Figure 2.7. The increasing number of vacant units can be attributed to the increasing number of residential developments under construction, approximately 20 residential developments were under construction in 2007, in which units are built prior to purchase to serve as models and/or to provide ease in moving. It is expected that the amount of vacant units will decrease in the coming years as more residential developments build out. 0.0% 10.0% 20.0% 30.0% 40.0% 50.0% 60.0% 70.0% 80.0% 90.0% 100.0% Occupied Dwelling UnitsVacant Dwelling Units 2000 Census 2003 Special Census 2005 Special Census Figure 2.7 Occupied/Vacant Dwelling Units Of the occupied dwelling units, housing tenure (ownership structure), is measured, Figure 2.8. Since 2000, the amount of owner occupied units has increased by 8.9% to a total of 81.1% of the total occupied units owned versus only 18.9% rented.

Median household income identiﬁ es the income level of the household in the middle of the income distribution. Yorkville’s per capita income, in 2000, was $24,514, which is the average income per person. This is found through dividing the total aggregate income for the City of Yorkville by the total number of individuals. Typically, median household income is used an income gauge. According to the Yorkville Economic Development Corporation, based on a 3 mile radius surrounding the intersection of Route 34 and Route 47, the median household income in 2006 was $90,128. This is almost a 50% increase of median household income. This trend can be seen in Figure 2.9 as larger percentages of households have increased median incomes. Figure 2.9 2000 & 2006* Comparison of Households by Income (* 2006 Information provided by YEDC via Tactician Corp. 2007) Figure 2.10 Employment by Sector (* 2008 Information provided by YEDC) Figure 2.10 represents the percentage of employment by industry comparison between the 2000 Census and the major private and public employers in Yorkville as tracked by the Yorkville Economic Development Corporation (YEDC), as of February 2008. Only the top 5 employment sectors are shown. The YEDC information is representative of Yorkville’s top 25 private employers and the top 4 public employers and is not an exhaustive list as with the 2000 Census. Due to this, some of the percentages may be skewed. Despite this, the information is still useful in identifying the major shifts in employment, such as in the Public Administration (Local or County government) and the Retail Trade Industries. It also identiﬁ es that Manufacturing continues to be the largest employment sector for Yorkville. 2.1 Demographic & Socioeconomic 0.0% 5.0% 10.0% 15.0% 20.0% 25.0% 30.0% ManufacturingRetail tradePublic administrationEducational ServicesAccommodation and Food Services 2000 2008 United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 242008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT 2.2 Natural Resources Natural resources include, but are not limited to, woodlands, grasslands, wetlands, lakes and streams. They include areas which are in public parks (i.e. state parks, forest preserves, and local parks), within public right-of-ways (i.e. easements and stream banks), and private properties. Identifying the location of these natural features not only aides in preserving these features, but also celebrating them as a unique amenity to the City of Yorkville. The following is a set of base maps which are useful in identifying the most appropriate preservation and buildable locations in Yorkville’s planning area. The following maps include: Topographic Map Information obtained from the Kendall County, Illinois GIS. The map displays the changes in slope within the planning area. Low lying areas are marked by green contour lines, while higher elevations have red contour lines. Spacing between lines represents a ﬁ ve foot change in elevation. Lines which are spaced close together represent areas of steep changes in slope. Examples of these areas include the ridge line south of Route 71 and the stream banks along the Fox River. Overall, the lowest elevation in the planning area is 560 feet while the highest elevation in the planning area is 820 feet, a change of 260 feet total throughout the area. Floodplain/Watershed Map Information obtained from FEMA and USGS. The map displays the areas contiguous to rivers and streams identiﬁ ed by pink, blue, or green, which are equal to or less than the highest potential ﬂ ood level. Areas which are highlighted in pink or blue represent areas in which mandatory ﬂ ood insurance is required due to a 1% chance annually to ﬂ ood and a 26% chance of ﬂ ooding over a 30 year mortgage. These areas are considered high risk areas for ﬂ ooding. Areas highlighted in green do not have mandatory ﬂ ood insurance regulations from FEMA and have less than a 1% chance annually to ﬂ ood. These areas are considered low or moderate risk areas. In general, all ﬂ oodplain areas either prohibit development or have additional wetland mitigation necessary in order to develop. Watersheds are also included on this map to identify the land which feed into each water body in the planning area. These areas are identiﬁ ed by the earth tone colors on the map. Residents take advantage of one of Yorkville’s natural resources, the Fox River United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 252008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT Soil Classiﬁ cation Map Information obtained from USDA. The map displays soil properties which should be considered when a property is developed. Locations shown in brown are soils which are considered prime farmland. Prime farmland as deﬁ ned by the United States Department of Agriculture, “is land that has the best combination of physical and chemical characteristics for producing food, feed, forage, ﬁ ber, and oilseed crops and is available for these uses.” Locations in yellow are those very limited to development. Soils were considered in their suitability for dwellings with and without basements, small commercial buildings, and local roads/streets. For a soil type to be considered very limited to development, for the purposes of this Comprehensive Plan, a soil had to have three or more limiting features in the highest rating class in each of the categories listed above. Areas which are not classiﬁ ed, which include ﬂ oodplains and ﬂ oodways, should not be automatically considered suitable for development, instead these soils should be identiﬁ ed as not ﬁ tting into the above listed categories. By no means, does this map identify areas in which development should or should not occur. It is merely a tool to identify that extra consideration should be given to developments in these areas due to the continuing decline in prime farmland and the potential building limitations. 2.2 Natural Resources Yorkville’s prime farmland is one of its many natural resources United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 262008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT 2.2 Natural Resources Open Space Opportunities Map Information obtained from The Conservation Foundation (Protect Kendall Now! Plan). The map identiﬁ es current and future lands which are or can be preserved as open space. Areas which are either existing public or private preserved open space are shown in light/ dark green. Open space opportunities, in red, represent a 150 foot buffer along all streams, wetlands, and 100 year FEMA ﬂ oodzones. Additional open space opportunities, in gray, represent potential open space areas identiﬁ ed by the Protect Kendall Now! Steering Committee. Developable Land Map Generic representation of land within the planning area which has the potential to be developed. All land which is currently developed, under construction, listed as open space opportunities either current or proposed (on the aforementioned map), or within ﬂ oodplains or ﬂ oodzones were subtracted from the total planning area. The remaining land approximately 45 square miles, in purple, represents the developable land within Yorkville’s planning area. 45 square miles of developable land is over double Yorkville’s current, 2008, municipal boundaries which contain approximately 20 square miles. • �I N United City of Yorkville GIS 1 % w'� Y E ----4')/":t Minimum Elevation(Green)560' I_ :/a:::T4,/ 1 �� a Maximum Elevation(Red)820' 5'Elevation Contours / - � �1rrl Legend '' I �. �_ �4 L.__ • Yorkville Corporate Limits --=--------- '!i""'mp--r '!'_ _ f" > 7--- f / ��j Yorkville Planning Area ) •_.-_-1 j, t, "Mill= _NM ij iluff _ i � ; e � i — I in:. / i ,.. _...„,.....-"'" SUN NM• _1 a ;i}- /moi if . 1 #' ' � r _.._ _.._.._-; -- _i� 11 �` i Ore .�lE. r.' �. $ 0.,,„!" --.---,7:,,,,,,,s;:s; i .,,, - 4----' ", ' • �/ �, riv i),)V i=,,_: C rt\�� :-1-/ , ";407 Af•A'' .

United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 272008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT 2.3 Infrastructure Infrastructure is a twofold deﬁ nition. First, it represents multimodal transportation systems which includes automobile transit and roadway systems, public transportation systems, airports and air travel, railroad (freight and commuter) systems, and bicycle and pedestrian transit systems. Transportation systems can be local, regional, state-wide, or even national. The United City of Yorkville and Kendall County already have a number of transportation plans in place in regards to automobile and roadway systems. These plans include: • 2003 United City of Yorkville Transportation Study • 2006 United City of Yorkville Transportation Model • 2007 Kendall County Transportation Improvement Plan Second, infrastructure also includes utilities, such as water and wastewater systems. A majority of Yorkville’s planning area is serviced by the Yorkville Bristol Sanitary District with part of the planning area serviced by Fox Metro Reclamation District. The service areas of these two sanitary districts are important in identifying proper locations of growth opportunities. Future expansion maps for these districts include • 2007 Yorkville – Bristol Sanitary District Future Wastewater Collection System Map • 2008 Fox Metro Reclamation District Boundary Map The plans and maps listed above, but not limited to these, shall be considered appendices or an addendum to the Comprehensive Plan to provide more detail on that speciﬁ c topic. These documents will not be included in the appendix section of the Comprehensive Plan. The following set of base maps provides a current assessment of Yorkville’s infrastructure not addressed in the plans listed above. Infrastructure includes railroad systems United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 282008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT Airport Map Lists all public airports within 50 mile radius of Yorkville. There are two primary airports, four reliever airports, and six general aviation airports within this 50 mile radius. Primary airports are public, commercial service airports which service more than 10,000 passenger boardings a year. These are considered airline hubs. Reliever airports are designed to relieve congestion at primary airports and can be publicly or privately owned. General aviation airports are either public or private which service 2,500 to 10,000 passengers a year. Prairie Parkway Alignment Map The Prairie Parkway is a future highway project intended to connect Interstate 80 to Interstate 88. The current Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) alignment, B5, is shown along with the proposed highway interchanges. There are two highway interchanges in Yorkville’s planning area, one at Route 71 and the other at Route 47. The project just completed its ﬁ nal environmental impact study and is under review by various federal agencies. Once a record of decision is submitted by these agencies, IDOT has the approval necessary to build the B5 alignment. The project will move into ﬁ nal design and construction, as early as 2009. Rail Line Services Map There are two rail lines serving Yorkville, the Burlington Northern – Santa Fe (BNSF) and Illinois Railway Inc. The BNSF runs both passenger and freight service nationwide. Passenger and commuter rail is not currently available in Yorkville, but is provided in Aurora, Illinois through Metra and Plano, Illinois through Amtrak. Feasibility studies have been done by BNSF in regards to extending Metra service to Kendall County with a potential commuter train station in Yorkville. No signiﬁ cant action has taken place on the project since the studies were completed in 2001 and 2002. 2008 Draft Trails Map This map shows proposed trails as a dashed line, and existing trails are shown as a solid line.

Generally, community facilities are all city buildings or locations and services provided by those locations, i.e. City Hall, Police Department, Public Works, and Parks and Recreation. Community facilities also include schools, ﬁ re stations, and libraries. Community facilities and the services rendered from them directly impact and can improve residents’ quality of life. As with the Infrastructure Section, the United City of Yorkville already has a number of community facility plans in place. Other than the 2007 United City of Yorkville School Site Study, these documents should be considered an addendum to the Comprehensive Plan and are not located in the appendix. The plans include, but are not limited to, • 2005 United City of Yorkville Downtown Vision and Municipal Facilities Plan • 2008 United City of Yorkville Parks and Recreation Master Plan Update • 2007 United City of Yorkville School Site Study • 2004 Kendall County Trails and Greenways Plan • 2007 Bristol Kendall Fire Protection District Existing and Future Facilities Map The following base map locates the current community facilities within Yorkville’s planning area.

Existing land use was determined by reviewing the current use of the land along with any proposed development plans, which are classiﬁ ed as entitled projects, for properties. The existing land use map is displayed here to allow for ease in recognizing changes in or similarities between existing conditions and the future land use map. Generally, the land uses have been divided into seven uses: Residential, Commercial, Industrial, Ofﬁ ce, Park/Open Space, Public/Quasi Public, and Agricultural. Residential – identiﬁ es all residential properties and developments. Includes residences in agricultural areas which are on a separate parcel than the agricultural use. Commercial – identiﬁ es all existing commercial areas of all intensities. Industrial – identiﬁ es all existing industrial areas. Ofﬁ ce – identiﬁ es all existing ofﬁ ce areas. Park/Open Space – identiﬁ es all existing recreational park space and publicly conserved open space Public/Quasi Public – identiﬁ es all existing local and county governmental buildings, schools, churches, libraries, etc. Agricultural – lands not classiﬁ ed as any of the existing land uses listed above is considered agricultural. 32 DRAFT B N S F R R Illin ois R ail w a y, In c.

Goals and Objectives DRAFT As described in the introduction, the most importation function of a comprehensive plan is to serve as a guide for the community in future land use and policy decisions. In order to accomplish the vision set forth in this document, the plan must be used and its recommendations must be acted upon. The goals, objectives, and action plans presented in this chapter provide the means necessary for implementing the comprehensive plan’s recommendations. A GOAL is deﬁ ned as general language outlining a need or desire which compliments the overall intent and vision of the comprehensive plan. An OBJECTIVE is a speciﬁ c task in order to implement or achieve a goal. Typically, there are multiple objectives for each goal. An ACTION PLAN is the step by step outline of achieving an objective. The action plans also have timelines in which each step is to be accomplished. These timelines do not have start dates, so they are just a general estimate of how long the task should take once the objective is underway. In general, a goal is what the community hopes to accomplish through the comprehensive plan, an objective is the means of accomplishing it, and an action plan is how it will be accomplished. The goals, objectives, and action plans of this chapter have been organized into four categories corresponding to the meeting topics of the Citizens Advisory Committee. This chapter is not organized by priority. These categories are: • Natural Resources • Infrastructure • Community Facilities • Land Use These goals, objectives, and action plans should be used in conjunction with the proposed land use plan to guide and direct future land use and policy decisions in the City of Yorkville. United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 342008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT The following goals, objectives, and action plans reference numerous stakeholder groups which will be a responsible party in the implementation process. If any of these stakeholder groups disband during the use of this Comprehensive Plan, United City of Yorkville staff will be responsible for reevaluating the action plan, assigning a new responsible party for that task, and obtaining acceptance from that party for the task. The list below deﬁ nes some of these stakeholder groups.

While areas of the Land Use Plan do coincide with the current use of the land, other areas propose a use different than the existing one. Many areas identiﬁ ed with a new future land use are now undeveloped, underdeveloped, or agricultural. It is recommended that with the development or redevelopment of any of these properties the new use should follow the Land Use Plan proposal. In all instances the Land Use Plan seeks to protect desirable existing uses and natural features, while proposing future uses in which the land is used to the highest and best use. The Land Use Plan will assist City leaders in guiding and directing growth to ensure that new developments integrate seamlessly into the fabric of Yorkville. To accomplish this goal, the Land Use Plan builds off of the two previous chapters (Existing Conditions and Goals, Objectives, and Action Plans) to create criteria which will effectively direct growth and development. Such criteria include: compatibility with existing land uses, existing zoning, environmental features, residential density, open space, transportation, other infrastructure systems and aesthetic criteria. The criteria had aided in determining future land use and the general pattern of development for the Yorkville Planning Area. Context for the general pattern of development is provided through the description and explanation of the speciﬁ c land use classiﬁ cations in the following pages. It is important to note that the Land Use Plan is not the City’s ofﬁ cial zoning map. Rather, it is a guide for decision making in the context of the City’s future land use patterns. 4.1 Intent United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 782008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT For several speciﬁ c reasons, including but not limited to, changing market demands, development trends and/or economic trends that occur at some point in the future after the Comprehensive Plan is adopted, certain proposals that are contrary to the land uses shown for a particular parcel could be deemed as more beneﬁ cial to the City. If such a case occurs, the City will indicate why the deviation from the Comprehensive Plan is being considered and what factors are considered beneﬁ cial to the City. If such changes occur, and especially if there is a signiﬁ cant beneﬁ t to the United City of Yorkville, then these proposals should be approved and the Comprehensive Plan should be amended accordingly. 4.1 Intent United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 792008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT 4.2 Land Use Classifications Residential Land Use Classiﬁ cations One of the main goals for residential development in the Comprehensive Plan is to provide quality, distinct, and creative housing opportunities which preserve existing natural areas and emulate the unique character of the United City of Yorkville. The following land use classiﬁ cations and the locations of them throughout the planning area attempt to follow this goal while providing quality housing choices and alternatives for all residents of the United City of Yorkville. Future developments ideally would provide a variety of housing types, as well as opportunities for citizens to interact with each other, their natural surroundings and the entire United City of Yorkville. Such distinct residential environments are not only characterized by their location and density, but are deﬁ ned by the quality of the architectural design, landscaping, and preservation of open spaces and existing natural features. The design of a development is equality crucial in its affect on the City as its overall density. To effectively guide appropriate residential development and densities that best ﬁ t the Comprehensive Plan’s residential development goals, the Land Use Plan deﬁ nes the following Residential Land Use classiﬁ cations: Rural Neighborhood, Estate Neighborhood, Suburban Neighborhood, Transitional Neighborhood, and Traditional Residential Neighborhood. These land use deﬁ nitions have been amended from the City’s 2002 and 2005 Comprehensive Plan. As a supplement to the deﬁ nitions, a brief narrative is included for each land use as it relates to the planning area. The narrative provides a general justiﬁ cation for the placement of each use shown on the plan. United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 802008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT 4.2 Land Use Classifications Rural Neighborhood 4,866.8 Acres 10.1% of Planning Area Intent The Rural Neighborhood Land Use classiﬁ cation is intended to provide areas for very low-density detached single-family residences. Areas designated as Rural Neighborhood have issues regarding the provision of water and wastewater service. The Rural Neighborhood is characterized by substantial open spaces along roadways and between properties and may be considered more agricultural in nature. Gross density in Rural Neighborhood should be less than 0.5 dwelling units per acre. Location • Southeast corner of Yorkville’s Planning area (Generally, east of Block Road and south of Route 126) Estate Neighborhood 11,154.4 Acres 23.2% of Planning Area Intent The Estate Neighborhood Land Use classiﬁ cation is intended to provide areas for low-density detached single-family residences. The Estate Neighborhood is characterized by substantial open spaces along roadways and between properties. This “open” character is often identiﬁ ed with the United City of Yorkville and this land use classiﬁ cation intends to protect and enhance this identity. Gross density in Estate Neighborhood areas should be less than 1.75 dwelling units per acre. Developments requesting densities above 1.5 dwelling units per acre shall illustrate compliance with the City of Yorkville’s Design Guidelines. In addition to showing compliance with the design guidelines, the developer must also demonstrate their ability to add speciﬁ c improvements such as: • Assist with funding offsite City infrastructure improvements (water, wastewater, transportation) • Integration of architectural standards (i.e. masonry, side entry garages, anti-monotony setbacks and elevations) that exceed the requirements of the City’s current appearance code and architectural standards. • Landscaping (i.e. increased landscape buffers, planting) • Increased allocation of open space beyond City requirement Existing Rural Neighborhood in Kendall County Example of Estate Neighborhood United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 812008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT Location • Existing developed areas of large lot single-family detached residences • Planned locations to create an effective transition from suburban neighborhood to rural neighborhood and outlying rural and agricultural areas • Areas which contain signiﬁ cant tree masses • Areas with substantial topographic constraints • Areas with limited wastewater services • Along the Prairie Parkway corridor to maintain rural character Suburban Neighborhood 11,327.8 Acres 23.6% of Planning Area Intent The Suburban Neighborhood Land Use classiﬁ cation is intended to be a residential area primarily comprised of single-family detached residences. The Suburban Neighborhood land use seeks to preserve existing developed areas at this density and to create new lower- density environments characterized by intimate neighborhoods and residences of distinctive design. As with the Estate Neighborhood, integration of open spaces, particularly along major roadways and at the periphery of each development to transition to adjacent areas, is vital to both the character of the development and the identity of the City. Gross density in this classiﬁ cation should be between 1.50 and 2.25 dwelling units per acre. Developments requesting densities above 2.0 dwelling units per acre shall illustrate compliance with the City of Yorkville’s Design Guidelines. In addition to showing compliance with design guidelines, the developer must also demonstrate their ability to add speciﬁ c improvements such as: • Assist with funding offsite City infrastructure improvements (water, wastewater, transportation) • Integration of architectural standards (i.e. masonry, side entry garages, anti-monotony setbacks and elevations) that exceed the requirements of the City’s current appearance code and architectural standards. • Landscaping (i.e. increased landscape buffers, planting) • Increased allocation of open space beyond City requirement 4.2 Land Use Classifications Existing Suburban Neighborhood United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 822008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT Location • Existing developed areas of single-family detached residential • Planned locations to create an effective transition from transitional land uses to estate neighborhood • Areas with some topographic constraints • Generally, centrally positional along main thoroughfare corridors Transitional Neighborhood 788.6 - 1384.1 Acres 1.6 - 2.9 % of Planning Area Intent The Transitional Neighborhood establishes a medium-density residential setting that includes a mix of residential uses within master planned communities. These master planned communities can have neighborhoods of varying densities, open spaces and carefully integrated commercial uses. High-quality multi-family developments would provide additional areas for young professionals and families moving into the City. Also, economic development opportunities are often enhanced by a diversiﬁ ed housing market that would offer a potential new company’s employees a wide-range of housing choices, including attached housing. In order to ensure that new apartment and townhome complexes development such that they are representative of the high quality of living found in Yorkville, the City should ensure that requirements (i.e. the City of Yorkville’s Design Guidelines) related to aesthetics and compatibility are contained within related ordinances for each development. Such requirements should address: • Masonry • Setbacks • Site Amenities (i.e. landscaping, open space) • Provision of covered and enclosed parking spaces This type of housing generally serves as a positive buffering element between single-family residential areas and major roadways and/or non-residential uses. The Transitional Neighborhood can be designed to provide intermediary space between lower density residential areas and non-residential areas allowing greater ﬂ exibility of development adjacent to areas subject to development pressures. Gross residential density in this classiﬁ cation should be between 2.25 and 3.50 dwelling units per acre. 4.2 Land Use Classifications Example of Transitional Neighborhood United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 832008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT In order to achieve a speciﬁ c density for a Transitional area, the amount of land devoted to single-family attached use and the overall density of the development shall be determined by the amount of additional open space that is provided. The area considered as additional open space shall be land over and above the park and recreation land donation required by the City’s Land Cash Ordinance. Existing natural resource areas or environmentally constrained areas (i.e. wetlands, ﬂ oodplains, extreme slopes, unbuildable soils) may be considered as additional open space for this purpose provided that they are: 1) Accessible to neighborhood or community residents where practical; 2) Contain trails, pathways, pavilions or other recreational amenities where appropriate; 3) Are linked to other open spaces or greenways when feasible. Areas containing lakes and/or ponds created for the purpose of meeting the City’s stormwater management ordinance shall not generally count toward the additional open space requirement. However, if the stormwater area is integrated into a larger open space/recreational area then the City may allow that portion dedicated to stormwater management to constitute a minor percentage of the additional open space requirements.

Residential densities vary within the Traditional Residential Neighborhood. Future development will likely be in the form of redevelopment of existing sites. Any redevelopment should be consistent with the 2005 Downtown Vision Plan prepared by the City. Location • Existing residential neighborhoods in and around the downtown area of the City • Existing residential neighborhoods in the Town of Bristol 4.2 Land Use Classifications Example of Traditional Residential Neighborhood United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 852008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT 4.2 Land Use Classifications Commercial Land Use Classiﬁ cations Providing areas for retail development is important for Yorkville as retail sales tax revenue can provide signiﬁ cant funding for City projects. By providing adequate areas for retail development Yorkville’s residents are able to purchase the goods they need locally, without having to travel to surrounding cities. This provides signiﬁ cant beneﬁ ts to citizens by enabling them to have their retail needs met locally, beneﬁ ts to the City by enabling it to capture the retail tax revenue generated by its citizenry, and beneﬁ ts to the environment by reducing the length of trips and thus car emissions by residents needing to fulﬁ ll their retail needs. To effectively guide appropriate commercial development to best ﬁ t the Comprehensive Plan’s commercial development goals, the Land Use Plan deﬁ nes the following Commercial Land Use classiﬁ cations: Commercial and Neighborhood Retail. These land use deﬁ nitions have been amended from the City’s 2002 and 2005 Comprehensive Plan. As a supplement to the deﬁ nitions, a brief narrative is included for each land use as it relates to the planning area. The narrative provides a general justiﬁ cation for the placement of each use shown on the plan. United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 862008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT 4.2 Land Use Classifications Commercial 2,373.3 - 1,090.9 Acres 5.0 - 7.2% of Planning Area Intent The Commercial Land Use classiﬁ cation includes uses such as retail, service, restaurant, entertainment. This land use classiﬁ cation intends to promote market-sensitive development of commercial uses within strategically located areas to efﬁ ciently, effectively and conveniently serve the growing local population while reinforcing the importance of the United City of Yorkville as a regional center. The Comprehensive Plan’s goal for such development includes expanding the economic vitality and employment base of the City. The Land Use Plan strengthens the presence of the existing core of commercial uses in the City while allowing for additional locations of commercial development that serve the planning area and minimize conﬂ icts with the transportation network and adjoining properties. As the Land Use Plan map shows, it is recommended that commercial uses locate along major thoroughfares in Yorkville, principally so that such land uses will have good accessibility. However, because of the nature of commercial land uses, which often require outside storage, display and sales areas, these areas should be buffered from public view (i.e. that should not be visible from the roadways) and from nearby residential uses. Despite being located along major thoroughfares throughout the planning area, strip commercial development which runs the length of the corridor is not encouraged. Where possible, developments should provide pedestrian connections to the commercial nodes for alternative transportation access. Commercial development should also strictly comply with the City of Yorkville’s Design Guidelines to ensure attractive, coordinated retail centers are planned. Further, as a goal of this Comprehensive Plan, use-oriented districts should be encouraged to provide an agglomeration of uses. These use-oriented districts include, but are not limited to, entertainment, healthcare, downtown, cultural and recreation. These districts while they are deﬁ ned as commercial development, function as unique locations within Yorkville’s planning area, and should be handled and identiﬁ ed as such. Commercial Land Use at Kendall Marketplace United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 872008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT Location • At the interchange of Prairie Parkway and Route 47 • Near the potential Metra Station to develop transit-oriented uses • Downtown Yorkville • Generally, at the intersections of arterials and major collector thoroughfares (Baseline Road, Route 47, Galena Road, Eldamain Road, US 34, Route 71, Route 126, Highpoint Road, Ament Road, Walker Road, and Caton Farm Road) Neighborhood Retail 238.8 Acres 0.5% of Planning Area Intent The Neighborhood Retail classiﬁ cation provides opportunities for smaller scale, service oriented retail establishments intended to serve only the residents within the immediate area. Small-scale retail trade is further deﬁ ned as land used for the purposes of serving the retail needs of neighborhoods in close proximity (e.g. convenience stores, ﬂ orists, beauty salons, dry cleaners, cafes, coffee shops, day care centers, small grocery stores, restaurants, etc.). By providing retail opportunities in close proximity to future residents, trips for everyday needs and services can be concentrated near residents’ homes and reduce the demands for continuous retail development along with reducing the additional vehicle trips along the major highway corridors. Where possible, developments should provide pedestrian connections to the neighborhood retail nodes for alternative transportation access. The neighborhood retail nodes should also strictly comply with the City of Yorkville’s Design Guidelines to ensure attractive, coordinated retail centers are planned. Location • Generally, at the intersections of major collector and collector thoroughfares (Beecher Road, Galena Road, Corneils Road, Greenbriar Road, Walker Road and Lisbon Road) 4.2 Land Use Classifications Example of Neighborhood Retail United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 882008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT 4.2 Land Use Classifications Industrial and Ofﬁ ce Land Use Classiﬁ cations The Land Use Plan includes distinct, signiﬁ cant areas to locate industrial uses and ofﬁ ce/business parks. Such uses provide necessary employment opportunities for area residents, and strengthen the economic base of the United City of Yorkville. In order to provide a variety of industrial uses in Yorkville, three classes within the Industrial and Ofﬁ ce Use classiﬁ cation are established, Industrial, Ofﬁ ce/Research, and Transitional Ofﬁ ce/Research. As a supplement to the deﬁ nitions, a brief narrative is included for each land use as it relates to the planning area. The narrative provides a general justiﬁ cation for the placement of each use shown on the plan. United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 892008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT Industrial 1,467.6 - 1,792.7 Acres 3.1 - 3.7% of Planning Area Intent The Industrial Use class intends to allow limited and general manufacturing, assembly, wholesale and warehouse uses in distinct areas that can be served well by transportation and other infrastructure. In addition to the location need determined by infrastructure, these areas should also locate where truck and/or rail trafﬁ c and hours of operation would not serve as a nuisance to their surrounding neighbors. Location • Eldamain Corridor between the BNSF railroad and Galena Road • Along Route 47 at the BNSF Railroad • East side of Route 47, north of Route 71 • At the Route 71 Interchange of the Prairie Parkway Ofﬁ ce and Research 486.0 - 1,902.0 Acres 1.0 - 4.0% of Planning Area Intent The Ofﬁ ce and Research Use class seeks to encourage development of ofﬁ ce and light industrial uses in a business park-like setting. Primary uses are intended to be large ofﬁ ce properties and facilities for research, testing and product development. Light manufacturing uses are intended to be limited in scope. Hospitality uses can be integrated into the business park as an ancillary use. It is recommended that the City concentrate on attracting businesses engaged in light-industrial and ofﬁ ce/research/development type activities that would be contained within a building (i.e. a minimal amount of open storage), such as high-tech services, medical services and software manufacturing. The City should also look to attract “green collar” employers whose business missions’ are to improve environmental equality and promote sustainability within their business. Light industrial businesses tend to have many of the advantages of general industrial uses (i.e. employment, increase tax base) without the disadvantages often related to traditional, heavier industrial uses (i.e. adjacency challenges, pollution). 4.2 Land Use Classifications Industrial Land Use at Fox Industrial Park Ofﬁ ce Land Use at Prairie Pointe United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 902008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT Location • East of Beecher Road at the BNSF Railroad • At the Route 71 Interchange of the Prairie Parkway • At the Route 47 Interchange of the Prairie Parkway Transitional Ofﬁ ce/Research 0.0 - 543.1 Acres 0.0 - 1.1% of Planning Area Intent The Transitional Ofﬁ ce/Research Use class is to be used as a transition from traditional industrial uses and higher intensity commercial uses to other land uses, namely lower density residential developments. Developments in the class should be designed to be non-obtrusive to adjoining properties and uses. Ofﬁ ce uses are generally considered compatible with residential uses, as long as they are relatively small in terms of their building (and related parking area) size. When adjacent to residential uses, ofﬁ ces should be designed in a manner that is compatible with them. Small scale ofﬁ ces are recommended in the Transitional Ofﬁ ce/Research Use while large-scale ofﬁ ce/ research parks are recommended within the Ofﬁ ce and Research Use classiﬁ cation. Location • Along Route 71, east of Route 47 • Along Route 47 between Conservation Drive and Gates Lane • Along Route 47 between Walker Road and Caton Farm Road • At the Route 71 Interchange of the Prairie Parkway • West of the Route 47 Interchange of the Prairie Parkway 4.2 Land Use Classifications Example of Transitional Ofﬁ ce/ Research Land Use United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 912008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT 4.2 Land Use Classifications Institutional Land Use Classiﬁ cations The Land Use Plan includes areas to locate institutional, public or semi-public ownership, uses. Such uses strengthen the overall quality of life for residents in the United City of Yorkville. Three classes within the Institutional classiﬁ cation are established, Public/ Quasi Public, Park/Open Space, and Transitional Open Space. As a supplement to the deﬁ nitions, a brief narrative is included for each land use as it relates to the planning area. The narrative provides a general justiﬁ cation for the placement of each use shown on the plan. United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 922008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT 4.2 Land Use Classifications Public/Quasi Public 447.1 Acres 0.9% of Planning Area Intent The Public/Quasi Public Land Use classiﬁ cation identiﬁ es existing and proposed City facilities, Kendall County facilities, Yorkville Bristol Sanitary District facilities, Bristol Kendall Fire Department facilities, as well as school, religious institutions, and other non-private land uses. The Comprehensive Plan assumes that the proposed facilities located on the Land Use Plan map are subject to change and that additional future facilities are allowed within the various land use categories illustrated on the plan as deemed necessary by the City Location • Kendall County Government Complex along US 34 • Yorkville City Hall along Game Farm Road • Existing and proposed District 115 School Sites • Yorkville Post Ofﬁ ce along Countryside Parkway • Yorkville Bristol Sanitary District along the Fox River • Religious Institutions throughout the Planning Area Park/Open Space 9,514.6 Acres 19.8% of Planning Area Intent The Park/Open Space Land Use classiﬁ cation is intended to preserve existing public open spaces such as recreational areas (park lands), existing privately held open space properties such as cemeteries, while identifying environmentally sensitive areas to establish appropriate locations for new designated open spaces. Consistent with the goals the Comprehensive Plan, the Land Use Plan seeks to provide a connected open space and trail system linking developments and residents within Yorkville to establish a green infrastructure system. Also, consistent with the goals of the Comprehensive Plan, the Land Use Plan seeks to preserve features of topographic signiﬁ cance. This classiﬁ cation is not intended to establish potential locations for open spaces that are located with Planned Unit Developments or other developments. All planned developments are expected to consult with the Yorkville Parks and Recreation Department to ensure that the recreational needs of Yorkville residents are being addressed. Yorkville’s City Hall Example of Park/Open Space Land Use United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 932008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT Location • Along existing ﬂ oodplains and natural drainage corridors • Areas with signiﬁ cant topographic features • Open Space Areas and Opportunities Areas from the Protect Kendall Now! Plan • Forest Preserve Properties • Commonwealth Edison Right of Ways Transitional Open Space 36.6 - 89.1 Acres 0.1 - 0.2% of Planning Area Intent Transitional Open Space functions similarly to the other transitional uses (Transitional Neighborhood and Transitional Ofﬁ ce/Research) in which the intent of the use is to buffer areas of lower density residential from areas of a higher intensity use, such as commercial or industrial. Transitional Open Space is used to buffer between to land uses, and can be linked, but is not required, into the City’s green infrastructure network as provided by the Park/Open Space Use classiﬁ cation. Transitional Open Space Use can function as a recreational area or conservation/preservation area. Location • Generally, where the Mid Aux Sable Creek intersects with Route 47 4.2 Land Use Classifications Example of Transitional Open Space United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 942008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT 4.3 2008 Land Use Map Each of the land use classiﬁ cations identiﬁ ed are shown on the Land Use Plan map on the following page. Each land use classiﬁ cation relates to a subsequent color, as seen next to the land use classiﬁ cation name. Generally, residential land uses are shown in a shade of yellow, commercial land uses are shown in a shade of red, industrial land uses are shown in purple and open space land uses are shown in green. Additionally, some areas on the Land Use Plan map are hatched with two colors representing different land use classiﬁ cations. This is done to identify that some areas are suitable to multipliable land uses. This is also way some land use classiﬁ cations have a range of acreage and percentage of the planning area. Generally, land use pairings include, but are not limited to: Commercial & Ofﬁ ce and Research Industrial & Ofﬁ ce and Research Transitional Neighborhood & Transitional Ofﬁ ce/Research Transitional Neighborhood & Transitional Open Space Transitional Ofﬁ ce/Research & Transitional Open Space R ob R oy C reek M org a n C ree k Middle Aux Sable Creek Fox River B l a c k b e r r y C r e e k Big Rock Creek Hollenback Creek 30 25 47 126 71 34 98 22 28 1920 7 14 1715 29 27 25 23 18 2 1 3 10 11 5 26 13 United City of Yorkville2008 Land Use PlanJune 19, 2008 0 0.5 1 1.5 20.25 Miles Legend Yorkville Planning Area Locally Proposed Roads Prairie Parkway B5 Alignment Prairie Parkway ROW 2008 Land Use Plan Land Use Classification Rural Neighborhood Estate Neighborhood Suburban Neighborhood Transitional Neighborhood Traditional Neighborhood Transitional Office/Research Transitional Open Space Parks/Open Space Public/Quasi Public Office/Research Industrial/Office Research Industrial Commercial Commercial/Office Research Neighborhood Retail Trans.

Transportation Plan DRAFT The Transportation Plan presented here is not to serve in place of the 2003 United City of Yorkville Transportation Plan. The information presented identiﬁ es the existing street network, along with the proposed roadways identiﬁ ed in the 2003 Transportation Plan, 2008 Kendall County Long-Range Transportation Plan, and the Kendall County Land Resources Management Plan. The Transportation Plan divides the roadways into a hierarchy system of classiﬁ cations. These include: Arterial, Major Collector, Collector, Minor Collector, and Local Residential. The deﬁ nitions, below, have been utilized from the United City of Yorkville’s Subdivision Control Ordinance and reference average daily trafﬁ c (ADT) which is the number of vehicles traveling a roadway per day. Roads are classiﬁ ed based on the future land uses and intensity of land uses in that area. Thus, some roads are not classiﬁ ed in their existing state. Arterial Roadways which are components of a regional roadway network. Their foremost function is to facilitate regional original and destination travel. Arterials should have the most restricted number of access points and carry the greatest volume of daily trafﬁ c at the highest speeds. Arterial roadways in Yorkville’s planning area are US 34, US 30, State Route 47, State Route 126, State Route 71, and the Proposed Prairie Parkway. Major Collector Roadways which serve as a main trafﬁ c thoroughfare, both within and outside the City, carrying heavy volumes of trafﬁ c. They facilitate the movement of regional trafﬁ c, and are intended to carry more than 12,000 ADT. Major collector roadways within the Yorkville planning area are: Galena Road, Cannonball Trail, Bristol Ridge Road, Eldamain Road, Beecher Road, Fox Road, Highpoint Road, Van Emmon Road, Minkler Road, Ashley Road, Caton Farm Road, Walker Road, Grove Road, and Lisbon Road. 5.1 Intent United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 962008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT Collector Roadways which collect and distributes trafﬁ c primarily within residential areas. Streets carry between 2,500 and 12,000 ADT. This classiﬁ cation also applies to areas directly serving commercial or industrial zoned areas. Collector roadways within the Yorkville Planning Area are: Baseline Road, Faxon Road, Alice Avenue, Center Parkway, Countryside Parkway, McHugh Road, Kennedy Road, Mill Road, Spring Street, River Road, Greenbriar Road, Prairie Crossing Drive, Penman Road, Walker Road (east of Route 47), and Canton Farm Road (west of Route 47). Minor Collector Collects and distributes trafﬁ c within developed areas, and is used primarily for internal trips within the planning area. This street carries between 1,000 and 2,500 ADT. Minor Collector roadways within the Yorkville Planning Area are: Bristol Bay Drive, Rosenwinkel Street, Bertram Drive, Corneils Road, Tuscany Trail, Freedom Place, Grande Trail, McLellan Boulevard, American Way, Marketview Drive, High Ridge Lane, Alan Dale Lane, John Street, Game Farm Road, Somonauk Street, Popular Drive, Ament Road, Legion Road, Immanuel Road, Helmar Road, Raintree Road, and Fairfax Way. Local Residential A street of limited continuity, used primarily for access to abutting rural residential properties and local needs of a neighborhood. This street carries less than 1000 ADT. Local residential streets are the remaining thoroughfares in the Yorkville Planning Area. 5.1 Intent United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 972008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT The Transportation Plan not only classiﬁ es the existing roadway network, but displays the proposed roadways and classiﬁ cation of them. Proposed roadways were identiﬁ ed from the 2003 United City of Yorkville Transportation Plan, 2008 Kendall County Long- Range Transportation Plan, and the Kendall County Land Resources Management Plan. These proposed roadways were established in these documents to address the ever increasing population and build out potential of Yorkville’s planning area, along with providing a roadway network in Yorkville. A network is established based on roadway spacing and destination of trips. For example, major collector roadways should be spaced approximately ½ mile from each other in both the east/west direction and north/south direction. These roadways will direct trafﬁ c onto an arterial road, state or county highway. Additionally, access onto major collectors should be limited to approximately every ¼ mile. A Transportation Plan does not only address automobile trafﬁ c, but alternative modes such as bicycle, pedestrian, and rail transportation as seen on the multi-modal transportation network map on the following page. The United City of Yorkville has developed a draft Shared- Use Trail Map which identiﬁ es trail locations serving bicycle and pedestrian users. Currently, the construction of the shared-use trail network has been limited to locations within development projects. However, this has left the City with many unconnected links of the network. The United City of Yorkville has begun to take a more proactive approach as a city to connect these links together. These measures include applying for and obtaining grant funding, along with developing an Integrated Transportation Plan to identify, prioritize, and schematically design these links (to be complete Summer of 2009). These linkages were identiﬁ ed as an important goal of the Comprehensive Plan. 5.2 Transportation Plan Map United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 982008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT Additionally, supporting rail transportation and the development of a commuter station in Yorkville was another goal of the Comprehensive Plan. It was determined that an extension of the existing Metra-BNSF rail line into Kendall County with a stop in Yorkville was feasible in the Phase 2 feasibility study; however no additional work since this study was completed in 2002, to the City’s understanding, has been done on the project. Despite this fact, the City of Yorkville will continue to support a rail line extension into Kendall County with a commuter station in Yorkville. This Comprehensive Plan proposes a potential site for a commuter station along with future land uses which would accompany a commuter station development. However, as identiﬁ ed in the Goals, Objectives and Action Plans Chapter of the Comprehensive Plan, along with in the 2003 Transportation Plan, these capital improvement plans should be evaluated periodically with potential changes made due to feasibility and cost/beneﬁ t to taxpayers. The proposed roadway network, shared- use trail network, and commuter rail station are not set plans. These are subject to change, but are pertinent to the Comprehensive Plan as land use changes and development will directly impact the multi- modal transportation network in Yorkville due to volume, type of users, and types of trips taken. The Roadway Network map and Multi Modal Network map on the following pages are guide documents, as is the rest of the Comprehensive Plan. The information presented here is not policy, but sound suggestions for the future of the City of Yorkville. 5.2 Transportation Plan Map • • Legend Proposed Street/Highway Classification I LS.LW.ar raves 1 P 9 Y ( — AI_ r. 1 ( r l i , w�c . . -Arterial / Hril •Major Collector ./- - ____.

June 19, 2008 United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 992008 Comprehensive Plan 6. Utilities Plan DRAFT The Utilities Plan addresses utility services in Yorkville, which include: sanitary sewer, water distribution, refuse, electrical, natural gas, telephone, cable, and internet services. Water distribution is the only utility service provided by the City of Yorkville, the additional services are provided by Yorkville-Bristol Sanitary District and Fox Metro Water Reclamation District (sanitary sewer), Veolia Environmental Services (refuse), Commonwealth Edison (electrical), Nicor (natural gas), and Comcast (telephone, cable and internet). The Utilities Plan while it identiﬁ es the current capacity of utility services is more focused on expansion and future capacity of these services. Given this, the Utilities Plan will focus on sanitary sewer and water distribution as the additional expansion and capacity, i.e. physical improvements and infrastructure, will be necessary due to projected population growth and the land use decisions made in the Comprehensive Plan. The Utilities Plan does not address refuse service or expansion as the Kendall County Solid Waste Plan which was updated in 2006 shall be considered an addendum to the Utilities Plan. For further information on the Kendall County Solid Waste Plan, please contact the Kendall County Health Department. The remaining services already have the physical infrastructure established and are less affected by population and land use changes. The information presented in the Utilities Plan is not intended to replace or alter existing expansion plans for these utility services. 6.1 Intent United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 1002008 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT In the summer of 2007 the existing water distribution system for the City of Yorkville was evaluated. In this evaluation, the current capacity of the existing water works system is approximately 25,000 persons for supply and treatment and approximately 30,000 persons for storage. This means that without any improvements the existing system can supply and treat water for 25,000 persons and store enough water for 30,000 persons. The Yorkville-Bristol Sanitary District, which serves the majority of the City of Yorkville, has one wastewater treatment facility designed to serve up to 36,000 persons. Currently, their 6.6 square mile service area has a population equivalent of 18,000 people. The Fox Metro Water Reclamation District currently only services the Grande Reserve Subdivision in the City of Yorkville and at this time does not have any expansion plans to aid in servicing Yorkville’s planning area. At the end of 2007, the population projection for the City of Yorkville was 15,240 people, which means the City of Yorkville’s water works system is at 50% capacity for storage and 60% capacity for supply and treatment. The Yorkville-Bristol Sanitary District is currently at 50% capacity, given their population equivalent and facility capacity. As seen in the Existing Conditions chapter of this document, the City of Yorkville still anticipates dramatic growth with the potential for City to reach over 30,000 residents by 2012, which would be a 100% change in population in 4 years. The City of Yorkville needs to ensure it has the means to provide utility service to sustain such growth. The 2007 Water Works System Plan Map for the City of Yorkville and the 2007 Future Waste Water Collect System Map for the Yorkville-Bristol Sanitary District, addendums to this document and are not included, shall be considered the guides for water distribution and sanitary sewer expansion. 6.2 Expansion Potential United City of YorkvilleUnited City of Yorkville 1012008 Comprehensive Plan 7. Appendix DRAFT Appendix 7.1 2000 Census Information Comparative demographic and socioeconomic information between the United City of Yorkville, surrounding communities, Kendall County, and the United States of America. This information is not included in Chapter 2. Existing Conditions, as much of the information would be considered out of date due to the rapid growth which was made apparent in this chapter. However, since the 2000 Census is the most recent national Census, it is important to include this information in the Comprehensive Plan for reference. 7.2 2007 United City of Yorkville School Site Study A School Site Study was done in 2007 for the City of Yorkville to identify necessary school facilities based on full build out potential of the Yorkville planning area. The School Site Study utilized the 2002 and 2005 Comprehensive Plan’s Land Use Maps to determine the potential build out scenario. The list of assumptions used for the study, along with the number of schools facilties necessary can be seen on Page 105. The school site study map on the next page gives a general graphic representation of schools sites needed in Yorkville’s planning area.
