PUBLIC HEARING - CITY OF YORKVILLE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
Chairman Feltz introduced Jeff Palmquist and Greg Gabel from the
Lannert Group.
Jeff Palmquist stated this process starts with an inventory and
analysis in other words we try to identify what is out there to
explore it into a long range plan.
Jeff stated in addition to this graphic inventory Greg and I had
series of meeting with the school district, Sanitary District, and
the County and all the key people affected and have input on the
ultimate zoning of Yorkville.
Jeff stated we came on board just about the time it became
necessary to look at the northwest quadroon of the community. We
had the Diehl property, some annexations on Cannonball, annexations
on the east side of Route 47 . This Comprehensive Plan began feet
first in an attempt to try to pull together some of the existing
development in the community as well as the existing zoning. One
of the initial steps is to develop the spine or structure of the
plan which we all realize begins with the transportation system &
how we deal with the existing and future roadways. We are
recommending with this plan three additional bridge crossings, one
at Eldamain Road, one between Eldamain and Route 47 and a third one
at Spring Street. Additionally we are recommending in attempt to
alleviate the traffic into downtown an opportunity for a series of
collectors on northeast ultimately joined by a bridge. We're
trying to call this plan a very environmental plan in that we took
a hard look at natural features and tried to protect the stream
corridor at Rob Roy Creek, Black Berry Creek and obviously the Fox
River.
Greg Gabel stated the general theme was to #1 preserve the open
space and #2 to develop a transportation plan that makes sense in
the future. When you have those two things established you can
begin to work on proposed existing uses and building to future
uses.
Jeff Palmquist stated he would take any questions or comments at
this time. '
Chairman Feltz asked if there was any questions or comments from
the public.
Hearing none, Chairman Feltz called an end to the public hearing of
the comprehensive plan.

PC 94-2 - KENDALL COUNTY A-1 TO CITY R-2 - M.KELLOGG
Jim Olson stated there would be a private road way to have entry to
these four lots .
Chairman Feltz asked what deviations if any to the subdivision
control ordinance exists with this parcel.
Jim replied just the right of way width.
Chairman Feltz stated there is no other variances.
Jim replied no.
George Stewart stated we assume there will be street lights,
sidewalks etc. .
Jim stated they hadn't planned on having any of those things on
that property.
Chairman Feltz stated that usually Jim does a good job on preparing
these petitions, but it isn't showing on this particular petition.
Chairman Feltz stated we've had requests in the past for private
roads and have turned them down.
Ralph Pfister stated if they put a full width street in there like
there suppose to. I don't care if there is one house there if it's
in the City and it's on a street it has to follow the ordinances.
Then you have room to put your utilities in and room for the
sidewalks and street lights. If it's going to be inside the City
limits it should have these things. If it's going to come into the
City it should conform to the City Ordinances.
Chairman Feltz stated maybe this should be tabled until next month
to give Jim and his client a little more time to prepare this.
PRE-APPLICATION - RON REINERT

to represent it here tonight we will move on.

PRE-APPLICATION - CHUCK HANLON
Chairman Feltz asked if there was anyone here representing this
parcel.
Chuck Hanlon stated the property is located at Minkler Road and
Route 71. Inland is the current owners of the 282 acres . We have
applied at the County formally for rezoning to R-3 .
Chuck stated in the concept plan the design is taking the main road
thru the property at Hilltop and winding thru and exiting onto
Minkler Road. We have met with the County staff and a couple of
there board members as we were putting the concept plan together.
On Route 71 we're leaving a certain amount of open space because
their concerned about the views on Route 71 and not have individual
styled landscaping from the back of the lots. We are also on some
of the major drainage ways keeping that open with a substantial
corridor, minimum 100 feet and sometime wider than that you have
the ability to extend open space trail systems thru that area.
We're told the forest preserve maybe acquiring property that would
bring them just about to this corner of Route 71 and we have left
a potential area for a trail system to the southeast. We have
three areas of substantial open space, we would like to reserve two
of these open spaces for potential single users. The third area
that' s in the northwest corner, we're proposing to be open space
for public use. Certain areas that we've looked at is drainage
ways were looking at the potential of taking out the drain tiles
and restoring some of those back into creeks.
Chuck stated we're looking for any questions or suggestions the
City Planning Commission may have.
Chairman Feltz asked if these lot would be served by City water and
Sewer.
Chuck replied no. Each lot is proposed to be served by individual
septic tank absorption fields and individual wells .
Chairman Feltz asked if there were any further questions or
comments pertaining to this property.
Hearing none, Chuck Hanlon thanked the Planning Commission for the
comments and their time.
CITY OF YORKVILLE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
Chairman Feltz asked if there is anything we want to specifically
state about this .
Anne Lucietto asked if we could block out the area with the sever
drainage problem so when we see this it kicks us in the head when
we deal with this area.
