The December meeting of the Plan Commission was called to order by
Chairman Harold Feltz with the following members in attendance:
Harold Feltz, Don Ament, Larry Langeland, Bob Davidson and
Anne Lucietto.
Absent: George Stewart, Sandra Adams, Kevin Collman, Clarence
Holdiman, Gail Digate, Tom Lindbloom and Louis Nauman.
Others present: James Clarage, Don Peck, petitioner
Jerry Lynch and Dick Swagger, engineer.
The first order of business was the Public Hearing on the petition
to rezone from R-2 to R-3 Special Use for Bed and Breakfast, the
property at 507 W. Ridge Street.
PUBLIC HEARING - PC91-12
The Public Hearing was opened with the swearing in of anyone
wishing to offer comments on the above petition. Jerry Lynch is
proposing purcashing the property at 507 W. Ridge Street, if the
special use for bed and breakfast is granted. The house is located
on Lot 12 and it is that lot only that the special use is being
requested for. The house consists of 3 bedrooms, 1 for his use and
the other 2 for the bed and breakfast. The Home Checkers went
through the residence and found no structural problems.
Ellsworth Windett made an objection, stating that if the request is
granted, the special use remains on the property; however the Plan
Commission members assured him that the special use would be for a
bed and breakfast only and any other use would have to be applied
for.
Suzanne Brady, executor of the property across the street, made an
objection stating that the subject property consists of the house
plus 2 vacant lots and was concerned that the special use could be
expanded. The Plan Commission members assured her that if the
special use was granted, it would be only for Lot 12 which contains
the residence.
PC91-12 FINAL PLAT - ROLLING HEIGHTS SUBDIVISION
Dick Swaggert, professional engineer for the Rolling Heights
Subdivision submitted an updated Prelininary Plat which shows the
sewer, water and contour lines. At the last Plan Commission
meeting, 6 items were of concern. 1) Sewer main. Mr. Swaggert
stated he met with the City Engineer. Fill was brought in and some
of the lots will be served with gravity feed. 2) Storm Water
Runoff. The detention pond is shown on Lot 12 . 3) Large cul-de-
sac shows the island as requested. 4) Sewer easements shown. 5)
Mainly on lots 11 and 15, the type of construction of a residence
is shown. 6) All lots must be single family and shown that way on
the final plat.
Concern was shown that the 10 feet of concrete fill on Lot 12 will
take 3 to 5 years before anyone can build on it.
James Clarage made the following recommendations:
1. That a statement be written on the Final Plat stating that
only one single family residence per lot can be constructed.
2 . Two concrete monuments to be shown on the recorded plat on
corners that would be agreeable to petitioner's engineer.
3 . On Final Plat, drainage certificate is required by owner
and engineer, not to adversely alter drainage flow.
4. In regards to the lots with substantial fill, wording on
the plat should be "prior to issuance of a building permit
verification on soil bearing capacity must be submitted before the
permit is issued"
The City Engineer has been made aware of the problems of low
profile, compaction and new contours.
Bob Davidson made the motion to recommend approval of the Final
Plat of PC91-12 - Rolling Heights Subdivision, with recommendations
of James Clarage and the City Engineer not sign off until the
Preliminary Plat meets his approval. Anne Lucietto seconded. Roll
Call vote carried as follows: Ament - yes, Langeland - yes,
Davidson - yes, Lucietto - yes, Feltz - yes. Motion carried.
PC 91-20 REZONE REQUEST FROM R-2 to R-3 SPECIAL USE FOR BED AND
BREAKFAST AT 507 W. RIDGE STREET, YORKVILLE
Bob Davidson stated that he owns property adjacent to the subject
property.
R-2 and R-3 Special Uses were discussed. The area is all single
family homes.
James Clarage recommended that the petitioner submit a Plat of
Survey, a Site Plan showing improvements, an Overlay showing
specific areas that will be used for the Bed and Breakfast, and
also show buffers and the parking areas.
It was suggested that perhaps this particular special use could be
R-2 - Item 13 , which would be Planned Residential Development.
Harold Feltz asked the petitioner to bring the information as
recommended by James Clarage to the January meeting for
consideration.
PC 91-20 was tabled until the next regular Plan Commission meeting
in January.
Comprehensive Plan
The Comprehensive Plan will be discussed at the January Plan
Commission meeting.
Bob Davidson made a motion to adjourn the meeting, Don Ament
seconded. All ayes. Meeting adjourned at 8: 10 p.m.
