Should continue to pursue aggressively the easements for trails along river because as more residences are added it becomes more difficult. Jim Nanninga has been contact with Ron Wehrli and the railroad. The emergency road is in place. A lot in Unit 1 has no road frontage and no road built. This should not be built until Unit 4 is done. Need a special written statement or agreement with Ron Wehrli that this lot not be sold until agreement is done.

Bill Schmanski has asked for copy and need to check with him. Discussed was White Oaks Phase 1 in regard to water retention. Future projects should contain provisions to require what City standards should be used at the time of final plat. There are certain legal rights concerning this. This should be done at time of annexation or P.U.D. COACH ROAD HILLS Bill Roppolo stated that all required engineering is done. Asking for rolled curb. Main driveway will be B612 . Ok with J.T. Johnson if they stay in street right-of-way. Residents don't like rolled curb-will put things in gutters, have concrete driveways and then will cut. Bill Roppolo feels because of 4 driveways per building a rolled curb will be a better looking project. This is part of larger P.U.D. All sides must negotiate and is a technical issue to go before the Planning commission. Preliminary plans do not need to show so much detail . Planning Commission is a recommending body and usually City will follow their recommendations. Bill Schmanski stated what is needed is off site sanitary sewer, and rolled curb is not an issue in townhouse area. Drainage, spread of water, 10 year storm and how much the land drains should be looked at. Make sure the PUD follows the ordinance. On preliminary plat all standards must be followed, open space plan must be presented to Park Board and sewer must be addressed. It will be necessary to meet with the Park Board again. Plans have been submitted to Com Ed. In layout for townhomes with 2 car garages, there will be brick fronts on 1st floor. The deviations requested are a 25 ft. setback instead of a 30 ft. setback because of some corners. Jeff Palmquist would recommend a 50 ft. setback on Rt. 47 . No problem from fire standpoint on 90 ft. cul-de-sac. J.T. Johnson stated that snow would probably be dumped on the island. A road has been eliminated from original concept plan and a lot added. The landscape plan shows a good level of commitment. More shade trees and evergreens are needed and will be done with the grading plan. Final articulation and placement of shrubs and trees will be subject to berm height. Bill Roppolo is asking for variance for 4 ft. sidewalks and it was recommended that sidewalks are 5 ft. Trails should link up with walkways . The issue of the sanitary problem has not been resolved as no preliminary design has been done. Need estimate of cost of lift station in connection to the existing system. That money would be used towards construction of new line. There is still no guarantee on sewer issue. Bill Roppolo stated that cash is available for interceptor. Ralph Pfister stated that the YBSD is near capacity and have finished another study on the plan. The City must repair the sewers. If they don't stay ahead of this, the EPA could shut them down. Every developer should be informed of this . Site distance, profile and traffic count studies have been done. Also discussed was signalization, I .D.O.T. and EPA permits . All Planning Council members present were comfortable with the layout and criteria of the Preliminary Plan presented. Need 50 ' setback, rolled curb request approved, must have 5 ' sidewalks, and the I .D.O.T. access and sewer issue is being addressed. The only other issue is the open space. Conceptually this has been accepted by the Park Board. Also discussed was the wetlands and the SSA. Tony Graff stated that Concord Drive and Morgan Sts . need to be changed as that is a duplicate address in County. Incap has done a wetlands report and no soil report has been done on the property. Dave Behrens questioned on how the City came to the cost of $100,000.00 for the park donation. Also discussed was the potential for a new well . Should come back to Planning Council when P.U.D. agreement is signed. RON WALKER-2 LOT SUBDIVISION IN FRONT OF CLUB 47 Jeff Palmquist does not want any encroachment on Rt. 47 and recommends not doing a 2 A. site plan on a 1 . 7 A. outlot. Part of the issue is the entrance and some agreements need to be done with the parties involved. HUFF REZONING Dr. Brenart'a Eye Clinic is located immediately to the south and is trying to increase the size of his clinic. Jeff Palmquist recommends it be Office not B-2 zoning, if they are planning it as retail . They are planning to expand parking lot. Entrance should be wide enough to handle 3 cars. This is zoning case not site plan and can't tie to recommendation or do conditional zoning. Before permit is issued all recommendations should be addressed. I .D.O.T. will made the recommendation on the roadway. Adequate parking should be provided within the setbacks. Minutes by: JucW BW11 w I, 4 CITY OF YORKVILLE J + -PLANNING COUNCIL i .
