Ayes -8 Nays -0 Anderson -aye, Besco -aye, Burd -aye, James -aye, Kot -aye, Munns -aye, Spears -aye, Sticka -aye Mayor Prochaska commented that the development agreement and the various attachments that go along with it did not include a landscape plan. He stated that this was needed before the Council could make a decision. i The Minutes of the Regular Meeting of the City Council - Mav 28.2002 - nage 2 Mayor Prochaska turned the floor over to Richard Marker of Richard Marker & Associates, Inc. Mr. Marker gave a presentation of the Heartland Circle project stating the following. • The development is approximately 129 acres of which approximately 20 acres have already been annexed to Yorkville for about fourteen years. The annexed portion is zoned R -2 One Family Residence. They are now asking that the balance of the property be annexed to Yorkville and also zoned R -2 with a Planned Unit Development (PUD) of R -2 zoning. • The development will have 265 lots, which range in size from 10,000 square feet to 14, 500 square feet. Lots bordering common areas or the trail system are a minimum of 10,000 square feet. Lots that do not border open space or those along the perimeter are a m ;n;m of 12,000 square feet. • There is approximately seventeen acres of detention space and approximately 36 acres of open space. Storm water will be maintained in the detention area; none of it will be in the open space. • In the center of the subdivision there will be a 2.989 -acre park dedicated to the City of Yorkville. • They will be paying the new School Transition Fee of $3,000.00/lot to the school district. They have agreed to pay this fee on the lots (approximately 45 lots) already annexed to the City even though they are only required to pay the old fee of $1,500.00/lot. • They are asking for a 50% credit for the open space. They will donate 9.58 acres of open space to the City and they will dedicate the 2.898 -acre park to the City without any further expenses to the City. They are providing more open space than which is required by ordinance (10 acres/1000 people generated by a subdivision). • They are retaining 20% of the lots for their own builders. The remaining lots will be sold off to different builders. The price range for the houses in the development is $260,000.00 to $300,000.00_ The floor was opened for questions or comments. Randy Mohr, 408 Johnson Street, addressed the Council and presented photos taken of Quinsey Lane, which show a tree line that is currently there. He expressed his concern that an approximate 100 foot area of trees will be cut down for the detention area and a water main that is proposed to go down the middle of Quinsey Lane. He also discussed an existing drainage easement, which has created a meadow, that Mr. Marker has not addressed_ He stated that he felt that this area should be protected and preserved as open space. He suggested that the drainage tile and water line be run down the meadow and the wooded area be preserved. Mike Bollweg, 9301 Quinsey Lane, addressed the Council. He owns the property adjacent to the south of the development. He explained that he was invited by the developers to view the first version of the development. He indicated that originally the entire area south of Spring Street was for detention and he was assured that there would not be a lot within 240 feet of his property. The current plan has added lots to this area and decreased the detention area. He is concerned about storm water runoff and the proximity of the lots to his property. He asked the City Council to have the developer bring back the original plan. Rich Stone, 176 Tuma Road, provided a handout to the Council and explained that he had surveyed the subdivisions in the City of Yorkville. His handout showed an aerial view of each along with the number of homes located in them and the number of entrances to each He compared the number and size of the entrances with Spring Street. He indicated that the Wackerland/Spring StreetlWoodworth subdivision area has 330 homes and has six direct access entrances to these homes. Heartland Circle will add 265 additional homes to this area. His concern is that Heartland Circle has too many homes and too high a population to only have three access roads and none to a direct feeder. This is unprecedented in Yorkville's history. He proposed that lots 19 and 20 of both Heartland H and Heartland I be opened up for access to McHugh Road where there will be a stop light on Route 34. He indicated that McHugh Builders own lots 19 and 20 of Heartland I but they are not built on yet. He concluded that Heartland II is _ the only subdivision that has entrances/exits through existing housing; it is the largest development seen in Yorkville; there are alternatives to the traffic problem and this development will effect Yorkville forever. He asked the Council to consider the suggestion of an entrance between lots 19 and 20, and zone the development R -1 One Family Residential in an effort to decrease the number of lots. Larry King, 900 E. Spring Street, addressed the Council. He commented that this property is landlocked between the Fox River and Heartland I. He indicated that there are three accesses to the property but that Spring Street is the only one on the southwest side. He also discussed the park in the middle of the development and the trail system. He questioned if any of the open lands were considered parkland. Mr. Marker indicated that the would be public access to the trail I i Minutes of the Regular Meeting of the ON Council - Mav 28, 2002 - uaee 3 system. Mr. King stated that in January, it was recommended to follow the 10- acres/1000 population for open space. He indicated areas where acreage was recommended for open space and trails. He felt that this recommendation was not followed and that the City's ordinances were not being followed. He asked for clarification on the width of the trails. He indicated that he had read where it was requested that the trails be 10 foot wide but those in Heartland I are 8 foot wide. He also asked if the park was going to be divided by the trails. Mr. Marker clarified that there were no trails through the park. He also indicated that a football field with end zones would fit in the park Mr. King stated that he would like the Council have the developer follow the ordinances. He also asked that they base their decision on what is in the best interest of — Yorkville. 4 Doris Dick, 504 Teri Lane, commented that she will have two houses facing her back yard and this is what drew her attention to the size of the lots. She quoted the City's advertisement that states it is proud of its minim residential lot size of 12,000 square feet. She stated that if the City keeps allowing 10,000 square foot lots, the ad should be changed. She also expressed her concern regarding the detention areas. She stated that the depth according to the City's ordinance is four feet. The City allowed ten feet for the detention areas in Heartland I and she wondered what would be allowed in Heartland Circle. She presented pictures she took May 12, 2002 after about three inches of rain. The photos showed the detention area fall of rainwater and Lot 37 under water. She expressed her concerns regarding the storm sewers, depth and acreage of the retention areas. She read an excerpt from the PUD for Heartland I, which indicated a variance for sub pump discharges being hook up to the City's storm sewers. It indicated that the developer should provide drainage to rear or side yard swales and if no ground water is found in five test holes, no diversion to swales will be required. Mrs. Dick questioned what the requirements will be for Heartland Circle and who was responsible for incorrect storm sewers, John Roesch, 98 Quinsey Lane, reiterated Randy Mohr's concern for the area of trees. He asked if the developer's plan could include retaining the trees. He also voiced his concern regarding the number of lots in the development. He reminded the Council that in April the Plan Commission unanimously voted against the preliminary plat showing 252 homes. The original plan was for approximately 235 houses but now it is for 265 homes. Another concerned was the size of the park. He stated that the Park Board recommended five acres but the park is only 2.9 acres. He discussed the retention area. He stated that the developer has assured the residents on Quinsey Lane that there will not be any water run off down the Lane but he would like to hear from the City Engineer regarding this. He asked the Council to consider the reduction of homes, increase the detention and the City Engineer opinion regarding the effectiveness of the detention areas. Steve Booth, 904 Spring Street, expressed his concern for the increase of traffic on Spring Street. He felt a traffic study should be conducted in order to discover how the increase in homes will effect traffic outside of the development. He stated that if the traffic study show changes are needed, they be made with the new development and not with the existing neighborhood. He also felt a drainage study should be performed. He asked that the existing neighborhood's way of life not be altered to accommodate a new development. Ken Gilliam, 423 Spring Street, reiterated Mr. Booth's concern for a traffic study, He stated that he did feel that Mr. Marker was making an effort to work with the community. He stated that his concerns were like those of the others, detention, lot size, park size and traffic. He suggested the speed be controlled on the streets the subdivision will use. There were no further comments so the floor was turned over to the Council. Alderwoman Spears questioned Mr. Marker regarding the removal of trees. Mr. Marker stated that he absolutely intended to remove the trees Mr. Mohr photographed. He stated 900 new trees will be planted and Alderwoman Spears expressed her opinion that new trees do not compare to mature trees. She asked Mr. Marker if he had contracted for a traffic study and Mr. Marker stated he had not but if it the City Engineer feels it is appropriate he would do so. Alderwoman Spears - asked about the detention areas and water runoff. Mr. Marker commented that the runoff from Teri Lane is due to lack of detention in that subdivision. He stated that the subdivision was graded so the excess runoff would go to the neighboring Taus property. The Taus' accepted this but now he has now inherited a bad situation. His plan for retention will solve this problem. The basin will be approximately 5 feet deep and he is 100% sure this will handle the problem. He explained that the reason Heartland I is holding water is because that is what detention basins are designed to do. They slow the runoff of the water over a twenty -four period. The drainage to the south will be much better than it is now. I i Minutes of the Reeular Meeting the Citv Council - Mav 28.2002 - ua e 4 lr � Alderman Besco asked if the detention basins were engineered with the runoff of Teri Lane considered. Mr. Marker stared absolutely. Alderman James asked how it would catch the runoff of Teri Lane. Mr. Marker stated that the runoff would be picked up in a storm sewer system on behind the lots and drained into the basin. Alderman Mums asked about the life span of the trees in question. He stated that they will have to be replaced sooner or later. Mr. Marker stated that the trees lino a 33 -foot access easement, which is owned by the Taus' trust and it will be evidentially owned by the developer. The trees need to be cleared in order to create the slope of the detention basin. The depth of the basin is -- determined by the existing topography. His firm has engineered the basin and the City Engineer will review it in detail. Alderwoman Burd asked if he would try to save the trees if possible. Mr. Marker stated that he does not have a problem with saving trees however he felt the tree line is ratty with no real specimens of trees. He felt this could be confirmed by an arborist. He stated the he is going to plant new trees and hopefully this will lessen the impact of removing the old trees. Mr. King asked if a drain tile for Teri Lane was installed, would trees be removed in this area? Mr. Marker stated that wherever they are able to, they do not cut down trees. Alderman James wanted to clarify for those present that Yorkville has a Park Board not a Park District. He explained that a Park District is a separate taxing body. He commented that there are unresolved issues with the Park Board. He asked Mr. Marker to make a presentation to the Board explaining his plans so that all the details are worked out. There are questions regarding common property versus homeowner's association property. Alderman James asked if Mr. Marker intended to take his plan back to the Plan Commission and Mr. Marker stated that he was not required to do so but would go back to them as a courtesy. Alderman James felt this was important. Mr. Marker stated that when he removed the commercial area, they approved the park and PUD usage and the zoning. Alderman James commented that because there were so many open issues, it would be important to take this back to the Plan Commission for further recommendation. He expressed his concern regarding traffic and access into the development. He felt that tying the new subdivision into Heartland I was important. Alderman Kot asked Mr. Marker if he would consider another access point. Mr. Marker said they could consider access to Teri Lane. Alderman Kot asked about Mr. Stone's suggestion of access using lots 19 and 20. Mr. Marker stated that he does not own those lots. Mayor Prochaska stated that the Council will need to look at the City's requirements and standards regarding access. He commented that everyone is concerned with the City's standards but a year ago the Council voted on Teri Lane becoming a cul -de -sac which is against standards. By City ordinance there should be another access to Teri Lane. He stated that maybe the Council needs to look at this. He felt that sometimes there are variances that are for the betterment of the community but this may need to be looked at because it would direct traffic to Spring Street east of Quinsey Lane. Mayor Prochaska. questioned Mr. Woodworth, who was present in the audience, about a right-of-way in his subdivision that went to Quinsey Lane. Mr. Woodworth stated that there was an easement for 10 years but it was vacated. Mary Herron responded to the Mayor's comment on variances. She stated that variances are sometimes for the betterment of the community but other times variances don't improve the quality of life of people in the area. I Denis Olek, 606 Teri Lane, responded to Mr. Marker's comment about inheriting a drainage problem. She reminded him he purchased the problem when he bought the property. She also commented that the traffic study has been brought up at many meetings but still has not been done. In addition, the five -acre park has been mentioned many times. Also she commented that the City Council needed to work on their non - verbal communication because several members - appeared to be not listening by their body language. Dale Woodworth commented that the traffic concerns are not going to go away as people think they will. He stated that as the City changes, people will find alternate routes through neighborhoods to avoid traffic and stop lights. Doris Dick had a further comment. She was unaware of the ordinance concerning the cul -de -sac on her street, Teri Lane. She stated that if she had known about this, she would have voiced her opinion that Teri Lane continue north. She mentioned she was not contacted regarding this ordinance but received a certified letter regarding this public hearing. She also mentioned the petition of protest she worked on and submitted to the City Clerk. Attorney Kleronomos stated i The Minutes of the Regular Meeting of the Citv Council - Mav 28.2002 - oage 5 the attorneys will review the petition after the City Engineer Joe Wywrot verifies that the petitioners represent 20% of the surrounding properties. Mayor Prochaska noted that this becomes a protest of record and when the vote comes up for the subdivision, it will have to pass j by a super majority vote of at least six votes. Mrs. Dick also commented that the Heartland I subdivision PUD states that homeowners of the said development will be permitted to have flower and/or vegetables gardens in designated areas of the open space. She wanted to know if the property used for this is city property, open space or homeowners association property. Mayor Prochaska responded that the Park Board recommended to the City not to take the open spaces because this would go against the Land Cash Fund. Instead the City required that all the - trails be a public access easement which allows anyone to go on them. The trails will be maintained by the homeowners association and will be 8 foot wide instead of the required 10 feet. If the trails would ever be dedicated to the City, the trails would have to be brought up to the City code before they would be accepted. Alderman Anderson commented that the trails have been discussed in length. The Council and Police Department were in favor of the eight -foot width. The ten -foot width will require more maintenance and there is a concern that wider trails would draw motorized vehicles on to them Alderman Sticka also noted that when 2 feet of width is added to a trail, every mile is a quarter acre of asphalt. Eric Saunders, 404 Johnson Street, stated that he took offense to Mr. Marker's comments regarding the quality of the existing trees. He felt people would prefer mature trees to new saplings. He felt that instead of inspecting the quality of each tree, take in the quality of the whole range of the trees. Alderwoman Spears agreed with Mr. Johnson's comment. She also voiced her concerns about the limited access to the development and felt that the City Council should readdress its standards regarding more roads and/or density. Alderman Besco agreed that it was necessary to find alternative access to the development. Alderman Sticka pointed out that this development is unique because unlike other developments in the area it does not represent urban sprawl. This development is surrounded by existing homes and is in -fill. It does not have access to major roads. Ms. Olek expressed her concerns for the children playing on Spring Street. She stared that if the traffic increases, she would not feel safe for her children. Alderman Sticka commented that 500 cars/day seems like a high number but in reality it is a tiny fraction of the cars that pass through Yorkville. Albert Batres, 902 Spring Street, commented that he felt that R -2 zoning was not right for this development and that R -1 would be better. Mrs. Dick added that the homes on Teri Lane are 1.85 in density with the average lot size 19,000 square feet. Alderwoman Burd asked for clarification on the part of the property already zoned. The Mayor indicated that part of it was already zoned R -2 and Alderwoman Burd stated that this portion could not be changed. Mr. Roesch asked were does this project go from here? Mayor Prochaska explained that once the Public Hearing is closed, the City Council will consider the request for the annexation and PUD and vote on it at a later meeting. He again stated that the landscaping design was not presented and this prohibits the Council from getting a full view of what they are voting on. City Treasurer Allen asked if the Public Hearing would be continued and the Mayor indicated that this was up to the Council. Alderwoman Burd asked if Heartland I was approved without access to this subdivision. Mr. - - Marker indicated that access was provided with Omaha Drive. The Council discussed if they should continue the Hearing or close it. It was decided that further discussion was needed between the Council but not necessarily at a Public Hearing. Mayor Prochaska explained to those present that once the Public Hearing is closed, the matter would go before the Council for consideration. Mr. Graff stated that City Planner, Mike Schoppe, was meeting with the Park Board on June 3, 2002 to get the Board's input on what would be included in the PUD agreement. He also stated that due to the amount of work the City Engineer has currently, it would be four to six weeks before the Council would get a engineering report regarding the comments made tonight. He suggested that the PUD be discussed at the next Committee of the Whole meeting on June 4, 2002. The Minutes of the Regular Meetine of the Citv Council - Mav 28.2042 - na L66 Mayor Prochaska asked Attorney Kleronomos if there was a time frame that needed to be considered and he stated that there is a time frame when a plat has been submitted for approval but this has not been done yet.

NAME: ADDRESS: qov I cl? v �Q 14 r SIGNIN i k v o ' v ��z L�) 9 k D o �j I a May7, 2002 Hi, I'm Doris Dick of 504 Teri Lane. i want to thank the City Council for hearing my comments. I am speaking because I care what happens near my back yard and what effects this development will have on the City of Yorkville. I will have 2 houses meeting my back yard. Speaking of lot size, if we are going to allow 10,000 sq.ft. lots, I believe we should change our advertisement on the web page. (Show the YEDC web page.) Before I address Heartland Circle and its new concept plan I would like to mention some key issues dealing with Heartland 1 which is already growing and effects Heartland Circle. I would hope to understand why City ordinances aren't upheld even if it is agreed upon through a PUD agreement. For example, the dry pond or dry basin known as detention area has a typical ordinance depth of 4 ft. This is a safety issue. Since the developer pro- posed relatively flat slopes for the basin, you allowed 10 feet for the depth. What will you O.K. for Heartland Circle? ( Show pictures & County Slot 811 Plat) Mention only 30 homes are built. I am wondering why Lot 37 (10,000 sq. ft.) is covered with water? _ Is the Detention Area working properly and is it enough? According to the concept plan for Heartland Circle, (265 homes) it calls for 16.16 Acres of detention. Is this going to be at 4 ft. or 10 ft.depth? The last plat of Heartland Circle for 252 homes had 16.16 acres. When should the area increase for Detention? ( Show plats- info on them) According to the Heartland 1 PUD, Read b.and c. of Page S. What will you require for Heartland Circle? Will 10 test holes be enough? How are these areas chosen? Who is responsible if the storm sewers are incorrect? ( Read Storm- ; Water Management Easement Provisions notes from County Slot 748) j Future Citizens in the Homeowners Association and not the Developer or Engineers? Why is this? The decisions the City Council makes are forever to impact us and future generations. Please keep this in mind as Yorkville's future is molded by your hands. Thank you Doris Dick Mention the open space is used by future homeowners according to PUD Page 7, read this under section 4. Mention the Petition and the letter about the May 28 meeting and the Petition under review. I provided the extra info, all parcel #'s on Friday, May 24, 2002 during a Holiday weekend. 3 hrs at the County Office. Because I care what is the outcome of our hard efforts!!!! Yorkville Economic Development Corporation 534 Counrryside Center Yorkville, o ." 6056 = A$V 7 Located along the Fox River, just 55 miles southwest of Chicago, the x United City of Yorkville has experienced substantial growth within the last few years.

A quorum was established. Minutes from the February 13 meeting were approved with one revision. PUBLIC HEARING 1 PC 2001 -18 Wyndham Deerpoint — The Highlands annexation and re- zoning Anne Lucietto made the motion to open the public hearing. Kerry Green seconded the motion. The motion was unanimously approved by voice vote. Rich Guerard representing Wyndham Deerpoint Homes outlined the proposed project. The overall site covers 300 acres. Plans call for 427 single - family residences with a. minimum lot size of 1,200 square feet; 108 duplexes; and 174 townhomes. There would be 25 percent open space in the development with 37 acres reserved for public parks and 22 acres set aside for a school site. Guerard said the school site is adjacent to the park site. He said plans try to preserve existing tree lines and another park site has been placed next to the tree line, which would be large enough for ballparks. In actuality, the developer has contributed more land than needed to the city, he said. He also said there are 10 connections to the subdivision. All the traffic is intended to go out the 2 main entranceways to the subdivision. One Yorkville resident expressed concern about the amount of construction traffic off Route 71. Guerard said there will be construction traffic, but he's not sure what the route will be yet. He also said there was debris on his property when a different development went up and he doesn't want more debris. City Administrator Tony Graff said the city does have debris and dust control ordinances in effect and that the city will ask the developers to soften the dust. Guerard said the developers don't know what the phasing of the project will be as they are still in the preliminary stages. He said the Illinois Department of Transportation will review road plans and that he believes there will be turn lanes of the highways into the subdivision. Yorkville resident Jeff Spang questioned the grade and sewer capacity for the project. Guerard said the sewer capacity questions have been resolved and that the grade still remains a question. He said the city still has to complete a main line to the property and that a lift station will not be necessary. Yorkville resident Rich Stone asked it the development would comprise track housing or would different builders come in. Guerard responded that it would not be track housing. When resident Kevin Benson asked if one or two builders would be involved, Guerard said he did not know. Yorkville resident Duane Hartman questioned how many townhomes would go on a lot. Guerard said that the 12,000 square foot minimum lot size was designated for single- family homes. He said he could not give a lot size because they're not built on lots but rather on common areas. Guerard said Wyndham Point is seeking R4 zoning for the townhomes which would allow for eight units per acre. Guerard also said a water study is in progress. Graff said the developer is funding the study for the southern zone. Hartman also questioned the assessment of impact fees and wanted to know if the city should i charge higher fees for townhomes than single - family homes because of density issues. Guerard said the impact fees are paid on a per -unit basis. Graff also said that another developer is funding a study regarding impact fees and that impact fees are directly related to population. Michael Crouch made the motion to close the public hearing. Andrew Kubala seconded the motion. The motion was unanimously approved by voice vote. PUBLIC HEARING 2 PC 2002 -02 Heartland Circle annexation and re- zoning Clayton Marker, representing Richard Marker and Associates, said the proposed development is an extension of the Heartland Development already underway in Yorkville. The 129 -acre extension would include 252 lots with an average lot size of 11,827 square feet or 1.99 units per acre. "It's a fairly unique development," he said. It features open space, a unique land plan and unique home designs, he said. 4 . 3 Marker said the development features 2 3/4 miles of paved trail system that would be open to the public and that the entire development is designed more for the walker or rider and not for the automobile. At the center of the development, are plans for a business area that would feature businesses such as a family restaurant or community ice cream store, Marker said. "We're looking to bring back the corner store," he said. Raised pavement around the area would traffic down. He said the whole project is designed to be pedestrian oriented and very family friendly. Yorkville resident Mike Bollweg asked if the trail system would be open to the public. Marker said it would be public properly, privately maintained. He said the developer is in negotiations with the park board to discuss what to do with property donated to the Yorkville Park Board. Bollweg said there is no actual park space in the proposal. Graff said Heartland is offering what is called passive use parkland. He said there's been no determination yet by the park board in accepting the contributions. In Heartland 1, the park board accepted some of the open space as part of the land cash contribution. Regarding the issue of density address by Bollweg, Graff said the project meets the required density level. Some lot sizes do not meet the required lot size under the zoning. Those lots are all located where there is open space, Graff said. Marker said when the open space is included with the lot size, the average lot size is about 16,000 square feet and that's without the detention area. On those smaller lots, Marker said there's a 30 -foot setback instead of a 40 -foot setback. It's similar to the method used in Heartland I. Stone questioned whether Marker and Associates have given consideration to increasing lot sizes to 12,000 square feet and maintaining the trail system. Marker said no. Yorkville resident Randy Moore suggested that lots get larger as they go further out of town. He said that to be fair to the residents on Teri Lane, the lot sizes bordering the subdivision should mirror the size of their lots and that the people on Tuma Road have the same rights. He also said he'd like to see a tree survey done. He said the southwest corner has a decent stand of trees that should be saved and also there are evergreen trees in the round about that could be saved if the round about was moved 100 feet. Moore also questioned who maintains the round about. Graff said the city is checking on round- abouts now and how they should be maintained. He also said there is no way Tuma Road has the ability, the width to handle the traffic proposed in the development. He said it's basically a cow path. i i 4 Yorkville resident Duane Hartman questioned whether the width of the road on the turn around would be wide enough to get fire trucks in there. Marker said the city would make the decision on the road size. York - ville resident Shelly Johnson asked if the developers have taken into consideration the semi trucks delivering goods to business proposed in the B -3 section of the development going down Spring Street which is in a .residential area. Marker said Spring Street is designated a truck route. He also said the developer would limit hours, limit the usage on the roadway. I Yorkville resident Sue Hills questioned why the developers want to put businesses in the development and said she doesn't want to worry about her kids getting hurt in the traffic. Yorkville resident Denise Olek said she wouldn't want liquor to be sold in any of the businesses and said if the developer wanted to work with the community the plan for the subdivision would call for larger lot sizes and less homes. Olek spoke in opposition to the lots that are less than 12,000 square feet as did several other residents. Marker said the development falls under the density requirements of two units per acre and that it could within the realm of possibility develop 325 -350 lots. City Planner Mike Schoppe explained that developers seeking strict zoning changes must comply with the ordinances as outlined. Under a PUD, or Planned Unit Development, there is more room for flexibility and negotiation. The PUD allows for customization of a development, he said. Yorkville resident Barry Niles said Yorkville has always had high standards and that he would prefer a development like what Heartland is proposing because it is a more diverse type of housing plan. However, he said he disagreed with some of the plans. For instance, if there are 250 homes in the development, there's no place for the estimated 400 -500 kids it would bring to go to a park and play baseball. Also he said the storm sewer that runs down Spring Street was something he put in when he made a development. He said it alleviated some of the drainage problem and that the storm sewer should be extended to the river. Plan Commission Chairman Tom Lindblom asked what the average lot size is on Teri Lane, Niles said it is 19,000 square feet. When asked about the development on Teri Lane, City Engineer Joe Wywrot said the density is about 1.85 lots per acre. Niles said that with ordinance changes made in 1996, it is impossible to reach a density of 3.3 lots per acre. 5 In response to a question by Yorkville resident Steve Booth who questioned how he would get out of his driveway with heavy traffic anticipated, Marker said Spring Street was designated the main entrance because the city has designed the road as a collector road. Schoppe explained that smaller roads in the city lead to collector roads and collector roads lead to the main arterial roads such as Routes 34 and 47. After discussions where several different residents raised concerns about the potential for heavy traffic on several neighboring streets, Niles suggested Heartland developers conduct a traffic study. Graff said a traffic study has not yet been requested because the development is still in the engineering phase but that one will likely be recommended. When questioned about the city's comprehensive plan, Schoppe said the development meets the intent of what is in the comprehensive plan. More discussions about the potential for heavy traffic on several roads including Tuma Road ensued. Roger Murphy suggested that a great number of issues would be solved if the road near Quinsey Lane would be turned into a dead end. Lindblom said the Plan Commission will take all comments into consideration when it deliberates on the matter and he is not sure when that will be. Kubala made a motion to close the public hearing. Lucietto seconded the motion. The motion was unanimously approved by voice vote. Jeff Baker made a motion to table discussions on Wyndham Deerpoint and Heartland developments. Sandy Adams seconded the motion. The motion was unanimously approved by voice vote. PUBLIC HEARING 2 PC 2002 -05 Christopher Valentine request to re -zone. Christopher Valentine said he is requesting B3 zoning to address the needs of the people who own the rental store in Bristol that burned down. The property where the new rental building will be located in along Bristol Road and Oak Street and faces on Cannonball Trail. For the property to the west, which is along Cannonball Trail and is contiguous to the Wrigley property Valentine is requesting M1 or light manufacturing zoning. He said at some point in the future there could be the possibility of very light industry on the property. He said he does not have plans for a manufacturing plant or factory to be built on the property. One person questioned what uses would fall under light industrial zoning and what Valentine's plans are for the property. Valentine said in his request the type of business would be based on what market conditions allow for. He said he can't envision how soon putting up a metal a i 6 building would make sense. Five years might be overly optimistic. He said there's no desire on his part to build a manufacturing plant. Another Bristol resident expressed concern about the amount of traffic any businesses could create. Bristol resident Lori Heff deLancy questioned why Valentine is seeking Ml zoning if he does not intend to put a factory on the property. She also wanted to know how it would help the rental business to be annexed to the city of Yorkville. 1 Valentine said that under Kendall County regulations all of the equipment must be kept inside the building. When the fire occurred the losses were greater because all of the equipment was inside. Also, he said it is nicer to be part of a bigger entity and possibly someday in the future have access to some of the services the city might provide. Heff deLancy said she and her neighbors would prefer that the equipment be stored inside: Valentine said all of the dangerous equipment would be kept outside in a fenced -in area. The current plan is to erect a 3,250 square foot building that would house the one business. i In response to concerns expressed at a previous meeting, Valentine said a wetlands delineation of the property has not been made, but he is in the process of finding someone to do the work. He also said he built the pond that exists on the property and he has no desire to fill it in. With questions about potential uses for the property unanswered, the Plan Commission decided to split the request into two votes - one on the request for B3 zoning and one on the request for Ml zoning. Lindblom also suggested City Planner Mike Seboppe conduct a review of the zoning. Kubala made the motion to recommend approval of B3 zoning for the property east of Cannonball Trail. Baker seconded the motion. The motion was unanimously approved by roll call vote. Michael Crouch made the motion to table consideration of M1 zoning. Baker seconded the motion. The motion was unanimously approved by roll call vote. OTHER BUSINESS Lindblom reported that the Plan Commission will meet twice a month for the next three months. Kubala made a motion to close the meeting. Jack Tones seconded the motion. The motion was unanimously approved by voice vote. The meeting adjourned at 9:40 p.m. Minutes by Dina Gipe G 1 UNITED CITY OF YORKVILLE A 0 0 o D PLAN COMMISSION MEETING j WEDNESDAY, APRIL 10, 2002 Chairman Lindblom called the meeting to order at 7 p.m. ROLL CALL Members present: Kerry Green, Jeff Baker, Anne Lucietto, Bill Davis, Sandra Adams, Clarence Holdiman, Jack Jones, Michael Crouch, Brian Schillinger, Tom Mizel, Andrew Kubala, Tom Lindblom Member absent: Ted King VISITORS Those who spoke at the meeting or signed the sign -in sheet were: Maggie Booth, Steven Booth, Dallas Ingemunsen, Mary Block, Raymond Bertram, Jeannette Bertram, Jim Bertram, Vallie Rice, Doris Dick, Denise Olek, Bob Pilmer, Robert Allen, Matt Fiscone, Rich Guerard, Mary Krasner, Tony Graff, Mike Schoppe, Joe Wywrot, Richard Sticka, Art Prochaska, Valerie Burd, Dan Kramer. A quorum was established. MINUTES Minutes from the March 13 and March 20 meetings were approved without changes. OLD BUSINESS 1. PC 2002 -05: Christopher Valentine petition to re -zone. Bob Pilmer, representing Christopher Valentine, spoke about the petition. He said the Plan Commission had questions about the 15 -acre parcel west of Cannonball Trail and also requested a wetlands delineation. Valentine since hired a firm to conduct the delineation that was completed. A copy of the delineation was provided in the packets of information to Plan Commission members. City Planner Mike Schoppe recommended B3 zoning for the parcel of property where the grain storage business is Located and combined MI/B3 zoning for the western portion of the site. Andrew Kubala made a motion to recommend zoning for PC 2002 -05 as pointed out in a letter from Schoppe and specifically including the grain storage business. Sandra Adams seconded the motion. The motion was approved 11 to 1 by roll call vote. Kerry Green, Clarence Holdiman, Jeff Baker, Anne Lucietto, Bill Davis, Sandra Adams, Jack Jones, Tom Mizel, Michael Crouch, Andrew Kubala and Tom Lindblom voted yes. Brian Schillinger voted no. 2. PC 2000 -11 Galena Yorkville LLC petition to annex and re- zone. Matt Fiscone with Inland said that based on the type of residential product on the south end of I I 2 the proposed project and the number of specific concerns expressed at the public hearings, he asked the commission to make a recommendation for R3 PUD zoning on the residential portion and B3 zoning on the commercial portion of the project. He said he understands that detached townhomes don't meet with city code and would require a PUD, Planned Urban Development. Gary Weber presented a revised plan for the property that included two potential changes. One change would reduce the number of full access points. The last plan called for two full access points on Galena Road and one right -in right -out access on Route 47. Under the revised plan, Weber said they may move one full access point, however, that would mean losing about 20,000 square feet of retail space. He said they're working out the details. Weber also said they have worked with the Yorkville Park Board and with Schoppe and will increase the frontage of the proposed park area. He said they'll lose seven units along the border to accommodate the change. Also, he said the Park Board would like a 10 -foot bike path easement through the park. Weber said it will have to be designed so that the path doesn't split the park. Kubala said he doesn't see a material change in the plan the developers are proposing compared to previous plans. He said he didn't feel comfortable recommending a PUD agreement without seeing more concrete changes. Many members of the Plan Commission voiced agreement to his comments. However, Fiscone said the developers are not prepared to revise the plan without specific reconunendations. Tom Mizel and Michael Crouch both indicated the thoughts and concerns of the Plan Commission were made clear at the last public hearing. Fiscone said the developers would take a recommendation on the PUD as the plan stands. f City Administrator Tony Graff asked if the Plan Commission thought the R3 PUD zoning was acceptable, the city staff could negotiate the terms of the PUD with the developer. Mayor Art Prochaska said Schoppe indicated R3 is the proper zoning for the parcel. Jeff Baker indicated the zoning is ok, however, density is a concern. Kubala made a motion to approve B3 zoning for the parcel along Route 47 in the approximate size that's shown on the plat as requested for PC 2000 -11. Baker seconded the motion. The ^ motion was approved by a &4 roll call vote. Holdiman, Baker, Lucietto, Davis, Schillinger, ®L1 Jones, Crouch, and Kubala voted yes. Green, Adams, Lindblom and Mize] voted no. Kubala made a motion to approve an R3 PUD for PC 2000 -11 with a maximum density of four units per acre. Schillinger seconded the motion. Kubala then amended the motion to include i 3 concerns expressed in staff reports and the minutes. Schillinger seconded the amendment. The amendment passed by a 7 to 5 roll call vote. Green, Holdiman, Baker, Schillinger, Jones, Kubala and Lindblom voted yes. Lucietto, Davis, Adams, Mizel and Crouch voted no. The amended motion was approved 7 to 5 in a roll call vote. Green, Holdiman, Baker, Schillinger, Jones, Kubala and Lindblom voted yes. Lucietto, Davis, Adams, Mizel and Crouch voted no. 3. PC 2001 -18 Wyndham Deerpoint Homes petition to annex and re -zone. Attorney Dallas Ingemunsen, representing Mary Block and her family, voiced objections to the proposed Highlands Subdivision development. He said the family hired Teska Associates to review the project. Teska concluded that the plan is not suitable for a subdivision. He said the Block family plans to continue their crop and cattle production farm for a long time and will not sell for development. That means the farm will be the outer peripheral of Yorkville for the foreseeable future. Among concerns expressed about the development, Ingemunsen said the density is too high. Also he said the Block farm has an easement for farm traffic. He said it creates dangerous traffic conditions now and that would increase with a new subdivision development. Also the Teska report stated that roadway extension to the Block Farm may be appropriate in the long -term. However, the roadways should not be built to the property line at this time because it could j encourage motorists to drive onto Block property. He said the Plan Commission needs to consider the impact the development will have on the Block farming operation. The most serious of concerns is what may happen with homes and a school site.bordering the property. He envisions children or others trying to come onto the property. He suggested the proposed subdivision developers create a ha -ha or some sort of buffer zone. The Teska report concluded that without appropriate buffering, there is great concern about the impact of the proposed residential development on the Block family to maintain the agricultural use of the land. Also, Ingemunsen expressed concerns about drainage and how it may affect the Block farming operation. Guerard said the development will not cause a drainage problem and engineering plans call for a system that will actually improve drainage. He said the developers are donating 50 acres of the development for a school and park and that only five lots border the Block farm. "Unfortunately, I think it's a situation where she (Mary Block) just doesn't want anything there," Guerard said. He said he offered to put a fence on the property, but Mary Block didn't want a fence. Kerry Green suggested a berm. However, Guerard said he's never been in a situation where there was a problem putting a subdivision next to a farm. 4 Anne Lucietto asked if Guerard had considered a ha -ha and he said he's never heard of the practice. Lucietto said she's seen ha-has while visiting in New Zealand and that they look very natural. She said she's familiar with several farming operations that have had subdivision built near them. At first the new neighbors say they don't mind the smells or the sounds, but soon they start complaining. She said many people want to move out to the country, but they don't want everything that goes with it. i Baker said he doesn't like the location of the school and suggested it have highway frontage. He believes it is dangerous to send school buses and traffic through a subdivision to get to a school. I f ; Graff said the Yorkville School Board indicated it favors the proposed school site. Graff said the developers plan to install a one million gallon water tank to service the development. He said the city is trying to plan it so that it can service water down to Walker Road by paying for an upgrade on the piping system. Also the sewer system may be expanded to go to Walker Road and Caton Farm Road. He said the city it trying to maximize its services by oversizing the infrastructure the developer plans to install. The developer is paying for the infrastructure while the city pays for the upgrades and oversizing. When asked about his comments on the proposal, Schoppe said the townhomes were moved to a new location and that the plan calls for eight units per acre. He likes the idea of the park being located next to the school. Regarding a berm or interface, Schoppe said he'd like to do some more research about what has been done in Yorkville to get a better understanding. He said 3 foot high won't stop a child from getting over it any more than a fence would. Under city regulations, R3 zoning calls for a maximum of five units per acre. Under a PUD agreement the units per acre can increase as part of certain trade -offs. "It needs to be weighed as an overall PUD," he said. s Regarding the issue of a subdivision neighboring a farm, Graff said that historically minor issues have been raised. Usually, they're inquiries and not complaints. And the city always replies that the farms were here first, he said. Schillinger suggested Guerard put a buffer up between the houses along the lane on the eastern edge of the property that the Block family uses for farm traffic. Guerard said he has suggested putting up a fence. Schillinger said Guerard could put up some green space. C After some discussion on what was being requested, Kramer suggested the Plan Commission separate the zoning request into three parts. Kubala made a motion to approve the annexation of the entire property as shown in the petition for annexation. Michael Crouch seconded the motion. The motion was approved 11 to 1 by a roll call vote. Davis, Schillinger, Jones, Mizel, i 5 Crouch, Kubala, Lindblom, Green, Holdiman, Baker and Lucietto voted yes. Adams voted no. j Kubala made a motion to accept the PUD single family residence as show on the plat. Crouch seconded the motion. The motion failed by an 4 to S vote. Schillinger, Jones, Kubala and Baker voted yes. Davis, Adams, Mizel, Crouch, Lindblom, Green, Holdiman and Lucietto voted no. When asked if the developer wanted the Plan Commission to continue voting on the other zonin p g g requests, Guerard said they wouldn't do the project without the single - family component. However, it was recommended the Plan Commission vote on the other requests. Continuing with the voting, Lucietto made a motion to accept the R3 PUD agreement as proposed. Schillinger seconded the motion. The motion unanimously failed in a roll call vote. Adams, Schillinger, Jones, Mizel, Crouch, Kubala, Lindblom, Green, Holdiman, Baker, Lucietto and Davis voted no. Lucietto then made a motion to approve R2 zoning for duplexes as proposed. Adams seconded the motion. The motion unanimously failed in a roll call vote. Schillinger, Jones, Mizel, Crouch, Kubala, Lindblom, Green, Holdiman, Baker, Lucietto, Davis and Adams voted no. Guerard said this is the fifth time the developers have been before the Plan Commission. He said they have made changes based on the concerns of the Plan Commission and that the single - family housing plan exceeds the city's ordinances and no variances have been requested. Davis said he's concerned about density off Route 71. Mizel said he's concerned about the 12,000 square foot minimum lot size. "Just because there is a lot of land there doesn't mean we have-to cram as many houses on it as possible," he said. Crouch said the developer still needs to find a way to minimize the impact it will have on the Block farm and the impact the farm will have on the development. Lucietto agreed saying she didn't think all of the concerns were addressed. Kubala said he believes the density on the duplexes is too high. Guerard said the plan is for 2.2 units per acre and that is less dense than what exists in the neighboring subdivision. Guerard asked if the developers could comeback and try to address some of the issues. Lucietto indicated that since the Plan Commission made its decision, the issue now goes before the Yorkville City Council. Kubala made a motion to continue discussion on the plat until the next regular meeting in May. Schillinger seconded the motion. The motion was unanimously approved by roll call vote. Jones, Mizel, Crouch, Kubala, Lindblom, Green, Holdiman, Baker, Lucietto, Davis, Adams and Schillinger voted yes. 4. PC 2002 -02 Richard Marker petition to annex and re -zone. I I 6 City Attorney Dan Kramer said the city received petitions against the Heartland Circle development. If 20 percent or more of the surrounding property owners sign a petition, it becomes a legal objection and the city council would need to approve a proposed project by a super majority vote. However, the petition has no significance as to what vote would be required by the Plan Commission, which is an advisory board. Richard Marker presented the same site plan that was previously proposed without changes. The plan calls for 1.99 single family residential units per acre on 129 acres of property. At the center of the property are plans for a limited commercial district. With 2.5 miles of trail systems proposed and 1.5 miles of trail system in the existing Heartland subdivision, Marker said it makes sense to have a number of pedestrian friendly business. However, he said he would remove that aspect if that is the desire of the Plan Commission and the City Council. I Marker said he understands the potential conflict for the commercial area. He envisioned single - story buildings to house possibly a medical or dental office or a barber shop/beauty salon or perhaps an ice cream shop. "We merely thought it was a very, very good planning idea," he said. Mizel said it was made very clear that residence were against the idea. Marker said it was clear by the people who attended the meetings. Regarding lot sizes, Marker said only the lots that back up to open space are smaller than 12,000 square feet. When questioned by Mizel about what would happen when neighbors start claiming the open space as their own, Marker said strict covenants would protect residents from that situation, There's also a mechanism in place for the city to tax or put a lean on the residents in the subdivision if the subdivision association fails and trails, etc. are not maintained properly. Regarding a traffic study, Marker said it's a mute point because the density of the proposed subdivision is less per acre than what exists now. Also at issue was the absence of a sizeable park in the plan, Schoppe said the Park Board recommended a 5 acre park in the project and said that the city would like to see a 4 to 6 acre park located in the development. Lucietto questioned whether the center area reserved for business could be converted to a park. Marker said city staff told him that the park had to be square. Schoppe said it didn't have to be square, but it had to be in a usable shape. Adams voiced her concern over lot sizes saying she'd like to see all of the lots at least 12,000 square feet. Mayor Art Prochaska also said he is concerned about the traffic circle in the project. Marker said that the concepts put into the plan were not meant to be controversial. He thought they would add charm to the development. Bill Davis said Plan Commission refrained until that night to .make comments in order to allow community members at the public hearings to air their views. Initially, the Plan Commission gave its nod of approval to the concept plan presented to it. But the concept plan did not offer 7 details of the project. That occurs on the preliminary plat. When the commission okayed the concept, it basically indicated that it liked the idea of what was being presented. Marker said he is committed to Yorkville and that the offices of Richard Maker and Associates, which have been located in Naperville for 30 years, are moving full -time to Yorkville. One of his sons already lives in Yorkville and the other one is moving to Yorkville. In response to a questions about chaining off Tuma Road so there is one exit, Marker said the developers donated a new right of way for McHugh Road to make it circle onto Route 34. The plan would correct the current wishbone that exists now. Mary Herron asked why Tuma Road would be chained off. Lindblom said it would be chained off so that the roadway wouldn't be used on a regular basis, but it would be another way in particularly for emergency vehicles. Crouch made a motion to approve annexation for PC 2002 -02. Schillinger seconded the motion. The motion was unanimously approved by roll call vote. Mizel, Crouch, Kubala, Lindblom, Green, Holdiman, Baker, Lucietto, Davis, Adams, Schillinger and Jones voted yes. Lucietto made a motion to accept the R2 PUD zoning for the PC 2002 -02 parcel. Kubala seconded the motion. The motion passed 11 to 1 in a roll call vote. Crouch, Kubala, Lindblom, Green, Holdiman, Baker, Lucietto, Davis, Adams, Schillinger and Jones voted yes. Mizel voted no. Lucietto made a motion to accept the B3 PUD service district. Jones seconded the motion. The motion failed unanimously by a roll call vote. Kubala, Lindblom, Green, Holdiman, Baker, Lucietto, Davis, Adams, Schillinger, Jones, Mizel and Crouch voted no. Lucietto made a motion to accept the preliminary plat as presented. Kubala seconded the motion. The motion failed unanimously by a roll call vote. Lindblom, Green, Holdiman, Baker, Lucietto, Davis, Adams, Schillinger, Jones, Mizel, Crouch and Kubala voted no. In response to a question about the negative vote, Schillinger said the commission has made its input.

Inc., and provide the followin�IT comments. General 1, The concept plan for Heartland Circle was reviewed by the Plan Commission it their January 9` 2002, meeting and r.he following comments were provided by the Commission: a. Althou,h the Comprehensive Plan identifies residential use on this property. it was felt that Elie conurtercial Use in the center would be acceptable. b. There was some concern expressed about the minimum lot size bcina Icss than 12,000 s,f. However. the majority felt that a minimum lot size of 10,000 s.f. would be acceptable as long as all the lots that are less than 12.000 s.f, are located adjacent to open space. C. Most commented that they liked the creativity that is incorporated into the land plan. 2. The petitioner is requesting annexation for the balance of the property, which is currently not within the: city limits and zoning the property to R -2 P.U.D. and B -3 P.U.D. Preliminary Plat 1 . As part: of Ehe 13 -3 P.U.D. approval. the building(s) For the commercial need to be shown on the commercial lot (lot 253) so that the layout. square footage setbacks and parking can be reviewed. Other design issues such as building hci .ght and materials should be addressed in the annexation agreement, 2. Same cif the allowable B -3 uses such as automotive repair and car wash would of course not be appropriare with this type of commercial. 'Therefore, a list of allowable commercial uses should be put in the annexation a -Irccmcnt. The Plan C ornrtiiSSion Should provide their input on what commercial uses they feel would be appropriate. 3, The R.O.W. around the commercial property should be revised so that the parking stalls serving the commercial are not in the public R.O.W. and therefore not maintained by the City. 1 4. A landscape plan for the commercial site needs to be submitted for review as part of the P.U.D. approval. 5. The part: requirement per the City's land cash ordinance N 1996 -3 is 9.4i acres for this 252 lot residential subdivision. The Park Board reviewed the project at their February 25` meeting. At that meeting. Schoppe Design Associates recommended that a 4 -6 acre park site be provided at the north side of the site adjacent to the storm water basin (Lot 204) in the original Heartland. Sue i Swithin has indicated that the Park Board is forwarding a written recommendation to the Plan 1 Commission. which should be included in the Plan Commission packets. j 6. The need for an elementary school site to serve this part of the City has been discussed with the r school district. Dr. Engler has indicated that the school district would prefer cash in lieu of land for this project. 7. A road stub should be provided to the undeveloped property to the south in the general area of lots 101 to 103. This should be in addition to the R.O.W. stub rcqucsted by .foe Wyrot to run fi•om the Spring Street traffic circle to the south property line. Given the long and narrow shape of the parcel to the south, this additional road stub will provide a second access for this property as well as eliminating the need to design a cul -de -sac that would be longer than City standards. 8. A note should be added to the typical residential lot detail that identifies the rear yard setback for perimeter lots to be 40'. if you have any questions regarding, these comments, please call.

PUBLIC HEARING 1 Amendment to the United City of Yorkville Comprehensive plan Yorkville resident Roberta Peterson wants the city to preserve the small town charm of the north side. She also wanted to suggested the city allow for houses along Route 47 be used for limited businesses. Yorkville.resident Jeff Spang shared the same sentiments.

Anne Lucietto seconded the motion. The motion was unanimously approved by voice vote. PUBLIC HEARING 2 PC 2001 -18 Wyndham Deerpoint Homes annexation and re- zoning. Jeff Baker moved to open the public hearing. Lucietto seconded the motion. The motion was unanimously approved by voice vote. Dallas Ingemunson representing Mary Block and the Block family said, "We are concerned about the future of the agricultural operation." He raised two main concerns the family holds over the proposed re- zoning. The family is concerned about the impact of run off water onto the farm. Secondly, the family is concerned about the impact that would occur because of people luring next to the farm. He said the family farm needs protection from both of the issues. Two sides of the farm as well as the lane coming from Route 126 will be impacted by the proposed use. He asked that the Plan Commission continue the matter to another date. "We don't like the development at all," he said. Those in the audience applauded his comment. j "We're also trying not to be difficult about it, Ingemunson said. Yorkville resident Craig Stewart is concerned about potential runoff. He also indicated he's not worried about the density of the proposed development, but the quality. "I'd like to see something done well with this piece," he said. Yorkville resident Tom Heiss, said, "We moved out here to look at the cornfields." He is concerned about the traffic the proposed development would create.

Sandra Adams seconded the motion. The motion was unanimously approved by roll call vote. PUBLIC HEARING 3 PC2002 -02 Heartland Circle annexation and re- zoning. Michael Crouch moved to open the public hearing. Baker seconded the motion. The motion was unanimously approved. Yorkville resident Duane Hartman wanted to know what the developers' plans are for the entrances near Spring Street and how those plans will effect the roadway. He also wanted to I know if the developers are planning detention or retention ponds. He fears that what is now pervious ground will become impervious. Yorkville resident Mike Bollweg said he is also concerned about storm water run off and said there's a need for storm sewers. He said the developer has requested he lower the existing culverts on his property and he's not interested in doing that. Bollweg also aired concerns over the density of the development, the size of tots and congestion on existing roadways. Yorkville resident John Reseb said he is "very concerned" about the business district proposed in the center of Heartland Circle and said it doesn't belong in a subdivision. Yorkville resident Richard Stone voiced concern over the potential increase in traffic on Tuma Road and the size of the lots in the development. Yorkville resident Larry King wondered about traffic congestion with the proposed development and the impact the development could have on Yorkville schools. Lindblom explained the plan commission's role in the zoning process and said the commission will continue the hearing until next month. Yorkville resident Rita Brubaker questioned how infrastructure improvements would be paid for and maintained. She said taxpayers usually end up paying for the improvements, not the developers. Yorkville resident Dale Nelson said he'd like to see the developer pay impact fees. Plan Commission member Jack Jones suggested the developer hold and informational meeting for the public, so that the public is informed about the proposed development. Camille Grimes of Yorkville said she wants the city to take under consideration the rules regarding watershed and not to change them. Mike Deutch, of Yorkville, said he and his neighbors came to Yorkville because of the larger lot sizes and because it is a good place to raise a family. "It's just not what we envisioned would be our neighbors," he said. Dennis Olek also expressed concern about the commercial area in the planned subdivision saying it "doesn't make sense." Betty Ross questioned what kinds of businesses could go in that planned area under the zoning request. Attorney Dan Kramer said it would be limited to neighborhood -type businesses. Denise Olek suggested the main thorough fare run through the first Heartland development. In response to comments about what the developer pays, Mayor Art Prochaska said the city cannot tax developers, but it can have developers pay for certain costs through annexation agreements. Kubala moved to table the public hearing until the March 13 meeting. Lucietto seconded the j motion. The motion was unanimously approved by roll call vote. PUBLIC HEARING 4 PC 2002 -04 Primus Corporation annexation and re- zoning.. Lucietto moved to open the public hearing. Kubala seconded the motion. The motion was unanimously approved by voice vote. Kramer said this is the second amendment to the PUD agreement. The city had agreed to grant B -3 zoning if the developer made a park for the city in another location.

Kramer said the types of approved businesses wouldn't include factories, but rather warehousing and assembly types of businesses. Chris Olson of Bristol asked what the benefits are to be annexed to Yorkville and wanted to know if Yorkville was "coming into" Bristol. Kramer said the city has reacted to requests from petitioners to be annexed into the city, but the city has not forced annexation on any property. Attorney Melissa Maye, hired by the petitioner to speak on his behalf, said the petitioner is looking into types of uses for the property. Bristol resident Lori Heffdelany shared her fear that any business development would create noise in the community. "We don't want any more noise than what we already have," she said. In response to other concerns voiced, Maye said Valentine does not intend too put any residential developments on the property. City Administrator Tony Graff also said Valentine is not in favor of a tavern going onto the property. Also, he said the City of Yorkville does not have a tavern license available.

The meeting adjourned at 9:40 p.m. i Minutes respectfully submitted by Dina Gipe MEMO To: Tim Nanninga, City Administra or '' \\ From: Joe Wywrot, City Engineer 1...) Subject: Heartland Subdivision — Prelimih&ry Plan eview Date: August 11, 1999 I have reviewed the proposed preliminary plan dated 7/30/99, and have the following comments: • The plan should be called a Preliminary Plan, not a Preliminary Concept Plan. • Has the plan review fee been paid? The fee for 96.8 acres is $6590. Has the deposit for legal and planner services of $5000 been made? The fee and deposit are due before the plan goes to Plan Commission. • Are the smaller lot sizes in the interior of the subdivision acceptable? • What happens to the parcel west of McHugh Road near the commercial area? • What is the zoning for the retail site? Some of the buildings and parking lots may need to be set back further. • It doesn't appear that any parkland is to be dedicated. Is this OK with the Park Board? • Several studies need to be completed: 1. Intersection Design Study for new Rt.34/McHugh intersection 2. Field Tile Survey 3._ USDA Land Use Report 4. Analysis of downstream sanitary sewer to confirm adequate capacity • The National Wetland Inventory Maps indicate that there are no wetlands on this site. • There are some discrepancies in the legal description (191.67' vs. 91.67', 198.33' vs. 98.33', 342.10' vs. 42.10'). Revise as appropriate. What is the chord distance and bearing, and the interior angle of the curve on Route 34? Need rough drainage calculations to confirm adequate pond sizing. The dry pond shows a HWL depth of about 10 feet. For s� re we typically limit this depth to 4 feet Maximum spacing between curbline drainage structures should be 300 feet. In sag areas, double structures are required. • All lots are required to have storm sewer services for sump pumps and downspouts. • IDOT needs to approve the location and IDS for the new McHugh/34 intersection and the proposed curb cut onto Route 34. Are turn bays or traffic signals required? Right- in/right- out only for the curb cut? Is additional ROW along Route 34 required? • The roads need to be named. • Bristol Township would need to approve vacation of ROW and any offsite improvements along their ROW. Who will maintain the unincorporated ROW that extends to Tuma Road? • Any new McHugh Road ROW should be at least 80' wide (or 40' to the centerline). • Round off the ROW intersection corners at Route 34 and the two entrances off McHugh. • McHugh Road is a collector road, and should be 39'B -B. Need a typical section for McHugh. . I • Add public sidewalk along the east side of McHugh between the commercial entrance and the first public street, and also on McHugh along the west side of Lots 1 & 2. We should also require offsite public sidewalk improvements so people can walk to Prairie Park. • Revise the typical section for residential streets to be 31'B -B. Stone gradation to be CA -6. • Revise typical lot detail to show a 10' wide front yard Public Utility and Drainage Easement. State that easement widths are to be finalized during final engineering. • All cul -de -sac ROW widths should be 130 feet. All cul -de -sac pavement widths should be 100' B -B. • Minimum horizontal radius to centerline of streets is 100 feet. Check all curves for compliance. • Revise the sanitary sewer layout to have gravity sewer serve as much of the subdivision as possible. • Route the force main to either Walnut Street or McHugh Road. The Teri Lane sewer flows to the Woodworth lift station. • Deuchler has routed a future 42" sanitary interceptor through this area. The general alignment of streets and open spaces fit that alignment fairly well. One possible change would be to move the 50' wide grassed access strip between Lots 170 & 171 to the area near Lot 166. We should require a wider easement in this area for the future sewer. We also need to discuss contributions (cash or physical improvements) from this property towards river crossing costs and the future sewer, and also if certain sewers need to be oversized to accommodate adjacent properties until larger interceptors are built. • Route the 12" watermain out through the north entrance onto McHugh Road, then out to Route 34, then along Route 34 across the entire frontage. Loop the watermain back to the interior streets near Lot 171 with an 8" watermain. Need BKFPD input on fire protection needs in the commercial area. • The hydrant spacing seems a bit too close. Hydrants should be about every 300 feet along roadways and at street intersections and ends of cul -de -sacs. • Show valving to have no more than a dozen homes shut down at one time due to a watermain break. Add a note stating that hydrant and valve spacing on offsite watermain will be determined during final plan design. • Route watermain through south cul-de -sac between Lots 95 & 96. • Extend watermain out to the end of all stub roads • Need a preliminary landscape plan to address typical streetscapes, buffers against adjacent properties, and entrance features, especially for the commercial area. • Show proposed street light locations. This preliminary plan is scheduled for review at the Planning Council meeting on August 12, 1999. If you have questions about any of these items, ,please call me. cc: Richard Marker, Richard Marker Associates, Inc. Steve Roake, Roake & Associates, Inc.

' ' R =637 32 CONCLUSIONS 1, Heartland II is the ONLY subdivision proposed or existing that entrance /exit is through existing housing. 2, Heartland II is the largest development ever before the council. (270 homes) 3. Heartland 11 is the ONLY subdivision that does not have direct access to arterial roadways. 4. Alternatives exist to alleviate the issues w/ Heartland II, 5, This development will affect Yorkville forever PROPOSAL 1. Create new access point thru Heartland Lots 19 20. 2. Zone R 1 or 18,000 sq. ft, Hi, My name is Steve Booth. I live at 904 E. Spring St., Yorkville. This property is located right at the mouth of the proposed Heartland Circle Subdivision and the only entrance and exit for the people who live down Quincy Lane. I am very concerned that the 500 plus cars generated by this subdivision will put an undue dangerous situation for me, my family and my neighbors on Spring St., Terri Ln., and Quincy Lane. I am also concerned by how a traffic and drainage study will be perceived. What I mean by this is : A traffic study should be conducted with how the traffic will effect the surrounding area outside of Heartland Circle, not how or what you need to change in the surrounding area to accommodate the traffic Heartland Circle will generate on to us. Jus for instance if the traffic study says for this increase flow of traffic you must widen Spring St. to accommodate the increased traffic the city should look at ways to decrease traffic to accommodate the surrounding neighborhood. Not say, how we can change what is already in place, but say how we can change something that is still in its planning stages and that is not yet there! This view also goes with the drainage to the surrounding area. Don't change someone's way of life just so this development can some how work. Thank you for your time.
