Plan Commission Minutes - September 15, 1993
both the preliminary and final plate of this subdivision. The
property is zoned R-2 and has been that way for quite a while.
The property is located on th south side of Van Emmon east of
Route 47.
Tom stated we propose to develop the property into three residen-
tial lots. They meet in all aspects the requirements of the
zoning ordinance and the subdivision control ordinance.

the north side.

to be put in.

Tom replied no, it's off the easement.

ment to give you enough room and everybody room to work later.
George stated otherwise we're tearing up the streets everytime we
need to do something.
Chairman Feltz asked if there were existing street lights or
would they have to be put in.

Jim Olson stated there existing already.
Chairman Feltz asked if they were going to put the curb and gut-
ter in.
Jim Olson stated there not showing the curb and gutter at this
time.
George asked why not. With the lay out of the land there is some
water moving.
Bob asked if they so wish they have to ask for a variance no mat-
ter what.
Tom Grant stated we have an engineers -estimate of what it will
cost to put in curb and gutters. We'll give you the money and
when your ready to do the rest of the road you can do the curb
and gutter at that time.
Chairman Feltz stated this is a subdivision therefore it should
meet all subdivision requirements.
Tom Lindbloom asked if we could act upon this as if they were
going to put that in.
Bob stated certainly.
Tom Grant stated he's asking for no variances and he'll address
the issue with the City Council.
George Stewart stated the property as I understand it is next to
the radiator shop and this is ajoining the radiator property. On
July 20, 1988 minutes of the Plan Commission of Yorkville; we
authorized and voted on and accepted a B-4 Special Use as follows
for an expansion and condition continuation of the radiator
repair shop business. One of the special use items specified to
rezone and reclassify under this motion was screening and buffer-
ing on Van Emmon Street and later on surrounding area that would
be visible to adjoining residential land owners. This has not
happened.
Tom Grant asked if there had been complaints.
George replied yes.
Tom stated that is news to us. I asked Keith about that tonight,
if he has had any complaints about the screening or lack of
screening on his property.

Keith Kuczowski replied no.
George asked if the City of Yorkville mentioned anything to him
about the property's appearance.
Keith stated he didn't specifically remember times pointed out
other than on a friendly note from J.T about how it was getting
out of hand and if he would please clean it up.
George replied it was stated as part of the condition for this
property. I have extreme concerns that the way this property
will be developed is not in the manner I 'm accustomed because
these other things have not been followed since 1988.
Tom Grant stated they have followed what the ordinance called
for. It reads as follows:
In the use of the real estate for the temporary storage of
wrecked vehicles for transport to the junk yard, the owner shall
store such vehicles in such a manner as to not be visible from
Van Emmon Road or from adjoining properties. The owner shall to
the extent necessary provide screening, fencing or earth and berm
on the property to render such vehicles not visible from Van Em-
mon Road or adjacent property owners.
George stated this needs to be taken care of.
Chairman Feltz asked if there were any further questions or com-
ments on the preliminary plat of this subdivision.
Hearing none, Bob Davidson made the motion to except the prelimi-
nary plat of PC93-14 Van Emmon Street Addition without any
variances and with more or less red flags on
1) Storm Sewer
2) Curb and Gutter
3) Buffering on' the east property line between lot 3 and existing

Chairman Feltz asked if there was anyone here to represent this
property.
Jim Olson stated at the time the Aldi store was built, Randy's
property was divided into two lots. The Precision Lube business
is to the southerly lot and he now has an offer to purchase the
property that lies north of his building and up to the Aldi park-
ing lot property. In order to be able to sell that he has'a to
have a resubdivision and that is why were here. They property is
served by the common driveway easement which is existing there
and on the Aldi property.
Chairman Feltz asked if there was an easement there for them to
use.
Jim replied yes.
Chairman Feltz asked if the warehouse when your between the first

Jim stated there is an easement across the new lot two to get any
where on Randy's property. In addition to that, on the final
plat we have a 20' wide easement going along side the detention
area.
Chairman Feltz stated with this developed there is going to be
more run off and the ponds there seemed to hold more water then
the others any where around. Are they sealed?
Jim stated there just not draining out. Evidentially the outlet
silted due to all the construction going on.
Bob Davidson stated this property does not come out to the high-
way even with an easement. Is there any legal problem with some-
thing like this? +
Dan Kramer replied it has to butt to a highway or city street or
you have to have a recorded easement.
Jim Olson stated it does come out and touch Route 47 but the pond
is there.
Chairman Feltz asked where a property does butt a road but
doesn't have it's own access to that road but uses an easement.
Let's say I build a house on a lot and get an easement can I use
my neighbors driveway?
Dan Kramer replied yes but it has to be a recorded easement or a
seperate written recorded easement.
George Stewart asked if the easement should be shown on the final
plat.
Dan replied he would recommend it be shown as a common, mutual
receptacle easement.
George Stewart asked what zoning they were asking for.
Randy replied were just asking for the resubdivision with the
same zoning of B-3 special use.
Jim Olson asked what the limitation of the special use were.
Bob Davison replied all zoing under B-3 applied but only the Oil
Shop and Tire Shop were the special use.
George asked if your neighbor gets upset with you and tries to
put up a fence, will you have enough parking for the building
your intending to do?
