The easement for drainage & public utilities between the two lots was extended to 40' . The easterly half of both lots is for drainage purposes -- this portion not being suitable for building. This will be basically a 2-lot parcel with access to city water & sewer with only minimal changes from the first drawings presented. Mayor Davidson suggested that the wording for the easement be changed to state "easement granted to the City of Yorkville", rather than just stating that the easement for public utilities & drainage was granted.

Mr. Grant stated that the surrounding properties are mixed as far as zoning -- some are R-1, some R-2 and some Agricultural. As to location, Pavillion Heights subdivision can be viewed from the top of the hill of the Leedy property.

Overall, most lots would be R-3 zoning and would be suitable for duplex construction. Reference was made to the possible name change of the street -- it is currently shown as "Hillcrest" on the plan.

Now the development will consist of 5 units instead of 6. 2. The common area between the two buildings has been eliminated. The effect being more side yard. 3. Regarding parking, there are now three parking spaces per unit available. The project will be presented to the City Council 11-17-88 for further direction.

PC88-49 - RE$UBDIVISION - Burger King - Countryside Center, Unit 5, Lot 3 Jim Conroy, Site Development Engineer for Burger King Corporation, presented the petition & stated that the owner of the property, Wayne Stepina, would be in attendance also. The location of the property was described as the northeast corner of Rt. 47 & Rt. 34 -- businesses in order would be Amoco, Hardee's, Burger King. The proposed layout of the property would be as follows: 1. One cut onto Rt. 47 is proposed to give direct access. This a 35' curb cut and has received preliminary approval from Illinois Department of Transpor- tation. This would include a drive-through lane of approximately ten stacking stalls. There would be a common access going through the Amoco site, the Hardee's site, and finally the Burger King site. 2. There would be a total of 64 parking spaces which is considered more than ample according to Burger King specs. 3. There would be a 60' set-back from the street. 4. The project would be tying into the storm & sanitary system; drainage would be into catch basins on site and ultimately into the drainage swayle along the right-of-way of Rt. 47. Chairman Feltz asked Fran Klaas if he had looked at the plan related to the water retention problem. Mr. Klaas stated that a state permit would be required for any such retention. Mr. Conroy stated that this was not a problem. Fran Klaas. asked about the 20' utility easement on Rt. 47. It was agreed by Mr. Conroy that this was actually a 10' plus 20' easement. Mr. Klaas further questioned the possibility of running the easement all the way through lot #2 to the east end. Mayor Davidson questioned any negotiations in progress regarding hooking up to sewer & water. His concern was with property owners to the north. Mr. Conroy stated that it was his understanding that Amoco was handling the situation and he would look into the matter. Wayne Stepina, owner, stated that he thought that Amoco was going to bring water & sewer down. Mr. Conroy confirmed that he would follow up. Mayor Davidson stated that the road agreements have been finalized with the state in regard to the proposed cuts onto Rt. 47. Larry Bretthauer asked why a frontage road idea would not be feasible. His concern was traffic to or from Burger King across the Drug Store property. He asked if there would be room for an east/west road in the future. Mr. Conroy stated that tomight's request was only for resubdivision & not for concerns being brought up. Chairman Feltz asked if each lot did not have to access a public road. It was stated that lot #2 had frontage only on the dedicated ease- ment. Mr. Clarage stated that the variance should be stated (actual frontage is required; otherwise it must stated as such. ) • PLAN COMMISSION MINUTES NOVEMBER 16, 1988 -- PAGE 5 Pending no further discussion, Chairman Feltz asked for a recommendation from the Commission.
