Plan Commission Minutes 1991 03-20-91 MINUTES OF THE PLAN COMMISSION OF THE UNITED CITY OF
THE VILLAGE OF YORKVILLE, KENDALL COUNTY, ILLINOIS
HELD AT THE KENDALL COUNTY BOARD ROOM
MARCH 20, 1991 7:00 P.M.
The March meeting of the Plan Commission was called to order by Chairman Harold
Feltz with the following members in attendance:
Harold Feltz, George Stewart, Tom Lindbloom, Anne Lucietto,
Louis Nauman, Gail Digate (7:05), Kevin Collman (7:10)
Absent: Clarence Holdiman, Don Ament, Larry Langland, Sandy Adams,
Ken Johnson
Others present: Mayor Davidson, Fran Klaas, Jim Clarage, Atty. Tom
Grant, and others present for the Public Hearing.
The minutes from the January meeting were approved as written. The motion was
made by George Stewart; the second by Louis Nauman.
The first order of business was the swearing in of those wishing to speak at the
Public Hearing scheduled as follows:
PUBLIC HEARING - REZONE TO 110" OFFICE BY JOHN G. & ALICE V. CONOVER - LOTS 6, 7 & 8,
UNIT 9, COUNTRYSIDE SUBDIVISION.
Atty. Tom Grant presented the proof of notification documents for filing with the
minutes. The owners have received an offer to purchase the property from the
Zeiter-Dickson Agency. Plans are for the construction of an office building to
house the insurance facility. Proposed zoning is the least dense that would still
allow a business. It would fit well into the area; the property is not in a
residential area and most surrounding construction is duplex.
Atty. Grant noted that Mr. & Mrs. Carris (owners of lot 4) were concerned with the
plans for lot 5, which is between their lot and the proposed development. There
are no plans or intentions to ask for rezoning on lot 5.
Chairman Feltz noted that the zoning changes had progressed from Ag to County
Business to Residential; now the request is to go back to Business. Mayor
Davidson questioned the water retention plans; Atty. Grant said this had not
yet been addressed. Speaking for the citizens in the area, the Mayor asked that
thought be given to insuring that the water shed would not adversely affect the
other property owners.
Citizen comments were heard from Irene Carris -- she expressed concern over the
problem with the water sitting on adjacent lot (#5) at the present time. There
is also concern with the future use of that lot. Mr. Carris also stated the
number of problems they had experienced with getting cable TV hook-up. Mayor
Davidson assured them that he would look into the problem on their behalf. Atty.
Grant assured them that the zoning on lot #5 would stay residential. He also
told them that as part of the building permit process the drainage would be reviewed
and that adequate precautions would be required to prevent future problems.

Comments were also heard from the owner of lot 16. Being located across the
street from the property in question, he is concerned with the affect of the
proposed development on the traffic flow between the two entrances. Mr. Dickson
stated that his type of business would not involve a lot of heavy traffic flow;
it would be limited to employees coming and going, as well as clients visiting
the office. Mayor Davidson said that by criteria set down by the State, the
traffic resulting from duplex lots (6 would fit into the same area) would be
of a much high concentration and would not be limited to a normal business day.
Hearing no further comments from the public, Chairman Feltz closed the Hearing
and resumed the regular meeting of the Plan Commission at 7:30.
PC91-3 -- REZONE TO 110" OFFICE BY JOHN G. & ALICE V. CONOVER - LOTS 6, 7 & 8,
UNIT 9, COUNTRYSIDE SUBDIVISION
Atty. Grant asked that his comments from the Public Hearing be incorporated into
the Plan Commission meeting.
Jim Clarage offered the following suggestions:
1. The property is now three separates totaling approximately 38,892 sq. ft.
He suggests a surveyor's plat amendment to put back to one lot. This
would be then only one recorded lot and may be required by the zoning
ordinance. The Plan Commission could note that they would have no
objection to such amendment if the petitioner so wanted.
2. Some type of landscaping or screening should be provided.
3. The parking lot runoff control needs to be stated to show that no
greater runoff exists than it would under normal circumstances.
4. If there is a no access easement along Center Parkway, it should be
recorded on the plat.
Tom Lindbloom made the motion to recommend the rezoning to "O" for lots 6, 7 & 8
subject to meeting the drainage requirements and with consideration given to
other points mentioned above. The second was given by Louis Nauman.
Roll call vote carried the motion as follows:
Nauman - yes Lucietto - yes Collman - yes Digate - yes
Stewart- yes Feltz - yes Lindbloom - yes
The motion to adjourn was made by Tom Lindbloom and seconded by Louis Nauman.
Meeting adjourned at 7:40 p.m.
