New Business
5. EDC 2019-44 Gas N Wash – Special Use Permit (out of sequence)
Ms. Noble gave a summary of the petition for a Special Use Permit and described the
particulars and amenities of the proposed project. She said a Plan Council meeting had
been held to address some of the project aspects and additionally, the petitioner held a
meeting with residents to address their concerns. Additional information has been
requested by the city prior to the Public Hearing at the PZC meeting on June 12.
Architect Scott Pritchett provided general information about the project including
building materials, right in/right out, and use of Sycamore Rd. for entrance/exit. He also
addressed the photo metric plan and signage.
Page 2 of 3
Residents addressed increased truck traffic, light pollution and Gas N Wash
representatives said the facility will not be open 24 hours. Other concerns included
possible overnight truck parking, adequate width for trucks to turn onto Sycamore,
contingency plans if the business ceases to operate (tanks would be removed if station
closes), whether or not IDOT will approve the right in/right out, concern for diesel fumes
wafting to nearby baseball fields, general location of the station and gambling at the
facility. Another resident noted what she perceived as a lack of police presence in that
part of town.
Alderman Frieders said that a gas station is needed on the outskirts of town since most
current stations are concentrated in the middle of the city. He also commented that many
citizens have protested gas prices, however, he said the city does not have control over
the prices. In response to resident concerns, Alderman Colosimo pointed out that Casey's
gas station is 3 times closer to residences than this project.
Citizen Rachel Engelhardt praised the city and residents for working on a Comp Plan
together, however, she opposed the project for several reasons, including the project
being contrary to the Comp Plan, not meeting the Special Use requirements and being
close to residential areas. She said the project does not maintain the small town image
that residents love. She presented a fact sheet comparing this with other gas stations and
posed several questions for committee consideration. Alderman Frieders complimented
Ms. Engelhardt's presentation.
Alderman Frieders presented this proposed project to his neighborhood and residents
questioned if there was a long term plan for electric cars. There is none at this time,
however, it could be considered in the future. The gas tanks were discussed and Gas N
Wash reps said the tanks are double-walled with alarms. Berms were suggested due to
the proximity to the ballfields and reps said a berm and plantings were used at another
site and could be negotiated. Car wash waste water procedures were also discussed along
with grease traps and storm sewers. Alderman Koch addressed the outdoor drain
capacity which engineering will study. Storm detention and setbacks were also
discussed.
1. EDC 2019-40 Building Permit Report for March 2019
Mr. Ratos reported 64 total permits for the month which included single family homes,
fences, pools and miscellaneous.
2. EDC 2019-41 Building Inspection Report for March 2019
There was a total of 336 inspections in March, lighter than usual due to the weather.
3. EDC 2019-42 Property Maintenance Report for March 2019
Most of the 11 cases heard in March were for motor vehicle violations. Some cases result
from complaints while others are discovered by the inspectors on their weekly rounds.
Mr. Ratos said the police are called for any vehicles in the street that are in violation.

4. EDC 2019-43 Economic Development Report for April 2019
Mr. Olson presented the report and said he would discuss the BNSF site certification. He
said the city has been invited to participate in the process and materials are being
prepared for BNSF for the 400-acre site on Eldamain Road. One inquiry has already
been made by a potential business. In other report updates, the Arby's site is waiting for a
clear title, tenants are being recruited for Kendall Marketplace, Pinheadz is closed and the
bowling alley is not serving liquor, both due to state liquor issues and other undisclosed
issues.
In another matter, the committee talked about the 15-minute parking signs by Belladonna
and how high the signs are set. Alderman Peterson said the signs are facing the car's
passenger side and are not easily visible. He showed some photos he took of the sign
positions. Alderman Funkhouser added that the Harmony owner asked for a 30-60
minute sign for their business. Ms. Noble said EEI is addressing the issue. The
committee also spoke about the danger of pulling out on Rt. 47 and the inability to see the
train tracks near Rowdy's. Live wires that were hit were also discussed and Mr. Ratos
will email a summary to Mr. Frieders and Mr. Funkhouser.
Old Business
1. EDC 2019-38 Building Code Update
Mr. Ratos gave an update on the fire suppression requirements in the code. He said the
changes may affect the bigger builders rather than the smaller ones. He will hold a
roundtable discussion with builders and will recommend to exempt fire suppression
which BKFD approves. Mr. Ratos said the revised code will increase safety.
Additional Business None
There was no further business and the meeting adjourned at 7:48pm.

Monthly Report – for June 2019 EDC Meeting of the United City of Yorkville
May 2019 Activity
Downtown Redevelopment:
- Worked with parties interested in downtown space, including the former “Capitano’s Deli”. I am not able to disclose particulars at this
time, but the party is very serious and is hopeful to reopen later this summer.
Development south of Fox River:
- Continue working with Eleno Silva on banquet center. Eleno is completing both exterior and interior construction in Stagecoach
Crossing. Official name of the business is “Martini Banquets”. He is focusing on opening in summer of 2019.
- Continue to work with “Hively Garden Center” on a new “ground up” business at Routes 71 and 126. Matt is eager to begin
construction this year.
- Continue to work with the owners of “Fountain Village” attract new in line tenants. There is a lot of interest in the center.
- Working with a business who is interested in the NE corner of Route 47 and 71 to do a major ground up project.
Development north of the Fox River:
- Kendall Crossing…Construction is in full swing for the “Hacienda Real” building, the “Flight Tasting Room & Bottle Shoppe” building,
and of course the “Holiday Inn Express & Suites” and “Kendall Banquets”. “Burnt Barrel Social” with 2,300 square feet and “Chicago
Title” with 1,600 square feet will complete the remainder of the multi- tenant building. “Burnt Barrell Social” is a new local gathering
place with great food, and small batch whiskey. The final outlot at Kendall Crossing has a serious potential buyer. We may see the
project fully built out within the next year.
- Kendall Marketplace…Continue to work with specialist consultants from “Bespoke” who have been hired by center owner, Alex
Berman, to work through a plan to determine new options and opportunities for the remainder of the project. Also working with
perspective inline tenants, and a national restaurant for new construction on an outlot. Preparation continued for ICSC convention.
This includes meeting coordination with Alex’s broker, Jason Pesola.
- “Arby’s” has submitted their building plans for remodel of the former Hardee’s location on Route 47 in early 2019. Yonas Hagos ,
Yorkville resident, will be the owner. Remodel will begin mid-June. Arby’s is on pace to open around Labor Day.
- “Gas N Wash” has moved to a new site in Yorkville. They have a 5-acre parcel under contract at Route 47 and Waterpark Way. It is
their desire to formally apply to begin the approval process in June. They hope they can be open no later than May 1, 2020.
- Working with a variety of retail and service based businesses that are exploring opportunities in Yorkville. Also, a one-acre outlot
immediately north of the multi-tenant building with Rosati’s is under contract for a new ground up single use. Details will be
forthcoming.
Industrial Development:
- Working with “Yorkville Commercial Center” who is building a 34,560 square foot mulit unit industrial condo building on 2 acres of land
in the Yorkville Business Center. Yorkville resident Rick Plachtecka will be moving his company “Machine Tool Diagnostics, Inc” into 3
units with 15 employees. The building will also be the home to another start up business called “TankServ360” which will create 15 new
jobs and use one additional unit. There are total of 18 units in the building. Attended the UIRVDA Board meeting, where we were
successful in getting Board approval for Enterprise Zone status for the project. The owner now continues the process with the State of
Illinois to receive their certification.

PZC 2019-15 E Van Emmon and Benjamin Street Rezone
Economic Development Committee – June 4, 2019
Details proposed rezone request for properties at the corner of E Van Emmon and
Benjamin Street
Jason Engberg Community Development
Name Department
PROPOSED REQUEST:
The petitioner, Ivaylo Gramatikov, is seeking rezoning approval for the parcels located at the southwest
and southeast corner of the E Van Emmon Street and Benjamin Street intersection. The petitioner is
requesting rezoning approval from B-2 Retail Commerce Business District to R-1 Single-Family Suburban
Residence District. The total proposed area to be rezoned consists of approximately 3.47 acres of vacant
land. The petitioner is requesting the rezone to market them as large single-family home sites and has no
current plans to build on the properties.
PROPERTY BACKGROUND:
The properties at the southern corners of E Van Emmon Street and Benjamin Street is the former River
Oaks development. The River Oaks project had a conceptual plan to be a multi-use building containing
offices, personal services, and loft apartments on the southwest parcel. A development agreement was
adopted in 2010 (Ordinance 2010-27) which approved a concept plan and rezoned the both properties
from R-1 One Family Residence District to B-2 General Business District. A term of 5 years for
development was established at the time the agreement was adopted. Therefore, the agreement expired
in 2015 and now the subject property owners must meet all current ordinances, regulations, and codes.
Although, the development agreement and its provisions have expired, the zoning classification must
remain, as zoning is not subject to timeframes and the adopted ordinance officially rezoned the pa rcels.
Memorandum
To: Economic Development Committee
From: Jason Engberg, Senior Planner
CC: Bart Olson, City Administrator
Krysti J. Barksdale-Noble, Community Development Director
Date: May 24, 2019
Subject: PZC 2019-15 E Van Emmon and Benjamin Rezone Request
Original River Oaks Conceptual Site Plan (now expired)
SITE ANALYSIS:
The following are the current immediate surrounding zoning and land uses:
Zoning Land Use
North M-1 Limited Manufacturing
OS-2 Open Space Active
Single-Family Homes, Light Industrial,
Baseball Field
South R-2 Single-Family Traditional
Residence District
Vacant Residential Lots
(Kendallwood Estates)
East R-2 One Family Residential
(Kendall County) Single-Family Homes
West
R-2 Single-Family Traditional
Residence District
B-4 Service Business District
Single-Family Homes, Light Industrial
Land Use
The petitioner has been attempting to sell these properties but is having trouble with the current zoning
classification. He has received inquiries from potential buyers if a single-family home may be
permitted but must deny them due to the B-2 zoning. Therefore, he wants to rezone the properties to
market them accurately and attempt to sell them as single -family lots. Single-family detached homes
are permitted in the R-2 Single-Family Traditional Residence District.
Comprehensive Plan (Future Land Use)
The subject properties’ future land use is classified as “Suburban Neighborhood.” This land use
category is designated to generally provide detached single-family residential dwellings on larger lots
with street connectivity within the existing development fabric. The overall intent in this land use
classification is to create well -designed, walkable neighborhoods that incorporate open space and
appropriate linkages to surrounding areas. The proposed R-2 zoning classification is in line with the
Comprehensive Plan’s future land use designation. Additionally, the size and location of these lots is
much more suitable for residential homes and providing connections between residential use as
opposed to commercial uses as stated in the Comprehensive Plan.
FINDINGS OF FACT FOR REZONING:
Section 10-4-10-B of the City’s Zoning Ordinance establishes criteria for findings of fact related to
rezoning (map amendment) requests. No rezoning shall be recommended by the Planning and Zoning
Commission without each of the following considered:
1. The existing uses and zoning of nearby property.
2. The extent to which the property values are diminished by the particular zoning restrictions .
3. The extent to which the destruction of the property values of plaintiff pro motes the health,
safety, morals or general welfare of the public.
4. The relative gain to the public as compared to the hardship imposed upon the individual
property owner.
5. The suitability of the subject property for the zoned purpose.
6. The length of time the property has been vacant as zoned considered in the context of land
development in the area in the vicinity of the subject property.
7. The community need for the proposed use.
8. The care to which the community has undertaken to plan its land use development.
The petitioner has provided written responses to these findings as part of their application (see attached)
and will request inclusion of those responses into the public record at the Planning and Zoning
Commission meeting.
STAFF COMMENTS:
Staff is seeking feedback from the Economic Development Committee regarding this project. This
rezone request is tentatively scheduled to go to a public hearing in front of the Planning and Zoning
Commission at the July 10, 2019 meeting.

PZC 2019-17 701 N Bridge Street Rezone and Variance
Economic Development Committee – June 4, 2019
Details proposed rezone and variance request for 701 N Bridge Street
Jason Engberg Community Development
Name Department
PROPOSED REQUEST:
The petitioner, Margaret LeGrand is seeking rezoning classification and bulk regulation variance approval
for 701 N Bridge Street. The property is located on the west side of N Bridge Street south of the Apple
Tree Court intersection and north of the E Park Street intersection. The petitioner is requesting rezoning
approval from B-1 Local Commerce Business District to R-2 Single-Family Traditional Residence District.
Additionally, the petitioner is requesting variance approval for minimum lot size, lot coverage, and front
yard setback requirements within the R-2 Single-Family Traditional Residence District to allow the existing
dwelling to remain on the property without any non-conformities.
PROPERTY BACKGROUND:
The structure on the subject property was originally built as a single-family home site (Kendall County
data states it was built in 1930). The property was used as a residential use until 2002 when the property
was rezoned to the B-1 zoning district (Ordinance 2002-41). The property’s overall lot size and front
lot line were reduced in 2015 due to the IDOT expansion of State Route 47.
Memorandum
To: Economic Development Committee
From: Jason Engberg, Senior Planner
CC: Bart Olson, City Administrator
Krysti J. Barksdale-Noble, Community Development Director
Date: May 26, 2019
Subject: PZC 2019-17 701 N Bridge Street Rezone and Variance Request
SITE ANALYSIS:
The following are the current immediate surrounding zoning and land uses:
Zoning Land Use
North R-2 Single-Family Traditional Residence District Multi-Family Dwelling
South B-1 Local Commerce Business District Small Business (Counselor)
East R-2 Single-Family Traditional Residence District
R-3 Multi-Family Attached Residence District
Accessory Garage, Multi-Family
Dwelling
West R-2 Single-Family Traditional Residence District Yorkville Public Works Facilities
Land Use Request
The petitioner is requesting that this property be rezoned to a residential district, so she may live in the
existing house. She has no plans of running a business or home occupation at this location. The R-2
Single-Family Traditional Residence District permits single -family detached homes as well as
accessory garages. The R-2 District is the most appropriate residential district due to the size of the
lot, dwelling unit density, and proximity to other R-2 zoned properties.
It should be noted that the petitioner is currently living in the house during this rezoning process. They
are aware that if rezoning to the R-2 District is not approved, they will not be compliant with the
Yorkville Zoning Code.
Bulk Regulations
The following are the bulk regulations for the R-2 District compared to the petitioner’s actual
measurements:
Min. Lot Size Max. Lot
Coverage
Min. Front
Yard Setback
Min. Side Yard
Setback
Min. Rear Yard
Setback
Required
Regulations 12,000 sq. ft. 45% 30 ft. 10 ft. 40 ft.
Petitioner’s
Measurements 11,041 sq. ft. 48% 10.1 ft. 27 ft. 49 ft.
The three highlighted measurements are not in compliance with the R -2 District. The petitioner is
requesting to vary these regulations to the existing measurements so the structure will be compliant in
the zoning district. The following lists the requested variances:
Minimum Lot Size to be reduced to 11,041 square feet
The petitioner is requesting to reduce the minimum lot size by 959 square feet (8%). Before
the State Route 47 expansion in 2015, the 12,000 square foot minim um lot size would have
been met and the only reason to apply for a variance is because of that expansion.
Minimum Front Yard Setback to be reduced to 10.1 feet
The petitioner is requesting to reduce the required front yard setback by 19.9 feet (66%).
Before the State Route 47 expansion in 2015, the structure was set back 27 feet to the front
property line. The front yard setback in the B-1 District is also 30 feet, which means even
before the expansion, this property was legally non-conforming. With a 10.1-foot front yard
setback, this property contains a legally non-conforming structure and the requested variance
would make this structure legally conforming.
Maximum Lot Coverage to be increased to 48 percent
The petitioner is requesting to increase the maximum allowable lot coverage by three (3%)
percent. The existing structures and paved surfaces take up 48 percent of the property. The
petitioner has no intention to add any additional structures or accessories that will increase their
lot coverage ratio.
Section 10-4-7-D of the Yorkville Zoning Ordinance lists authorized variances which the Planning and
Zoning Commission may approve without City Council review. Of the three requested variances, only
the reduction in minimum lot size is an authorized variance. Section 10-4-7-D-h states:
“To exceed any of the authorized variations allowed under this subsection when a lot of record
or a zoning lot, vacant or legally used on the effective date hereof, is, by reason of the exercise
of the right of eminent domain by any authorized governmental domain proceeding, reduced
in size so that the remainder of said lot of record or zoning lot or structure on said lot does not
conform with one or more of the regulations of the district in which said lot of record or zoning
lot or structure is located.”
Since the sole reason for the request to reduce the minimum lot size requirement is the result of IDOT ’s
widening of Route 47, this request will be reviewed and authorized by the Planning and Zoning
Commission. The other two variance requests must be reviewed and approved by the City Council.
The front yard setback is not an authorized variance because the structure was already non-conforming
to the 30 foot required front yard setback and the widening did not cause the non-conformity.
Additionally, there are no authorized variations in the code which address lot coverage variances.
Comprehensive Plan (Future Land Use)
The subject property’s future land use is classified as “Traditional Neighborhood Residential.” This
land use category is designated to generally provide detached single-family homes with existing or
enhanced infrastructure. This category emphasizes maintaining existing densities and preserving or
rehabilitating existing housing. The proposed land use and R-2 zoning classification are in line with
the Comprehensive Plan’s future land use designation for this property.
FINDINGS OF FACT FOR REZONING:
Section 10-4-10-B of the City’s Zoning Ordinance establishes criteria for findings of fact related to
rezoning (map amendment) requests. No rezoning shall be recommended by the Planning and Zoning
Commission without each of the following considered:
1. The existing uses and zoning of nearby property.
2. The extent to which the property values are diminished by the particular zoning restrictions .
3. The extent to which the destruction of the property values of plaintiff promotes the health,
safety, morals or general welfare of the public.
4. The relative gain to the public as compared to the hardship imposed upon the individual
property owner.
5. The suitability of the subject property for the zoned purpose.
6. The length of time the property has been vacant as zoned considered in the context of land
development in the area in the vicinity of the subject property.
7. The community need for the proposed use.
8. The care to which the community has undertaken to plan its land use development.
STANDARDS FOR GRANTING A VARIANCE:
The Planning and Zoning Commission must base its decision to vary, or recommend varying, the
Petitioner’s request for relief of the Zoning Ordinance regulation upon the following standards (Section
10-4-7-C):
1. Because of the particular physical surroundings, shape or topographical condition s of the
specific property involved, a particular hardship to the owner would result, as distinguished
from a mere inconvenience, if the strict letter of the regulations was carried out.
2. The conditions upon which the petition for a variation is based are unique to the property for
which the variation is sought and are not applicable, generally, to other property within the
same zoning classification.
3. The alleged difficulty or hardship is caused by this title and has not been created by any person
presently having an interest in the property.
4. The granting of the variation will not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to other
property or improvements in the neighborhood in which the property is located.
5. The proposed variation will not impair an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent property,
or substantially increase the congestion in the public streets, or increase the danger to the public
safety, or substantially diminish or impair property values within the neighborhood.
6. The proposed variation is consistent with the official comprehensive plan and other
development standards and policies of the city.
The petitioner has provided written responses to these findings as part of their application (see attached)
and will request inclusion of those responses into the public record at the Planning and Zoning
Commission meeting.
STAFF COMMENTS:
Staff is seeking feedback from the Economic Development Committee regarding this project. This
rezone and variance request is tentatively scheduled to go to a public hearing in front of the Planning
and Zoning Commission at the July 10, 2019 meeting.

Revisions proposed for the downtown overlay district Streetscape Masterplan and
Form-Based Code documents

SUMMARY:
Additional review and discussion of the proposed final draft of the Yorkville Downtown Overlay District
Plan consisting of a Streetscape Master Plan and Form-Based Code.
BACKGROUND:
As you may recall, the final draft of the Yorkville Downtown Overlay District Plan was presented
at the May 14, 2019 City Council meeting for its first reading prior to adoption. A presentation of the
highlights of the Streetscape Master Plan and the Form-Based Code for the overlay district was given at
that meeting by the consultant, Doug Farr of Farr & Associates. The plans are intended to establish the
broader guidance for street character and development opportunities within the downtown which can be
facilitated through public capital improvement projects and private redevelopment.
Over the course of 18-months, beginning in January 2018, the consultant and staff hosted a
project website; conducted two (2) public workshops; previewed a draft plan at a committee meeting;
held a public open house; and had a public hearing before the Planning and Zoning Commission; all to
gather input and solicit feedback on the various drafts of the plan. All feedback received during this time
was incorporated into the plan. A formal recommendation for adoption was made by the Planning and
Zoning Commission on April 10, 2019.
At the May 14th meeting, staff received comments from members of the City Council regarding
two (2) matters in the plan related to street treatment recommendations and the misidentification of parcel
ownership in the Streetscape Master Plan. Staff was asked to address these comments, and any other
feedback from the council provided to the City Administrator and bring back to the committee for further
discussion.
PROPOSED REVISIONS:
Gravel Street Apron
The Streetscape Master Plan identifies “gravel street aprons” as a potential long-term treatment
for residential streets in the downtown district (page 38). This aesthetic detail on the residential ‘B”
streets (Main St., W Van Emmon St., W Madison St., State St. and Adams St.) would provide the visual
transition from roadway to landscape where curbs do not exist. Additionally, the 18”-24” gravel edge will
filtrate and slow down the flow of stormwater runoff from the streets before entering the roadside swales.
While there has been concern expressed about the upkeep of gravel street aprons, staff believes
the gain in stormwater filtration and the limited scope where this treatment can be applied (approx. 2,550
linear feet or a little less than ½ mile) outweighs any potential minor maintenance concern. If, however,
the committee seeks an alternative to the proposed gravel edge street apron treatment, a suggestion would
be either a roller compacted concrete edge or a 18”-24” concrete curb ribbon. Illustrations of both
alternatives are provided in the attached alternate page 38 of the Streetscape Master Plan.

Parcel Ownership Map
It was noted on the map titled “Parcel Ownership” on page 62 of the Streetscape Masterplan that
the parcel for the Van Emmon Activity Center was mislabeled as privately owned. That map has been
revised to correctly identify the parcel as city-owned. The updated map has been attached for your review.
STAFF COMMENTS:
Staff feels that the proposed revisions have addressed the comments/feedback provided at the
May 14th City Council meeting. At the time of this memo, no other comments have been forwarded to
staff by the City Administrator of any other requested revisions, corrections or updates by the City
Council for the proposed Streetscape Masterplan or Form-Based Code. We welcome any additional
feedback you may have on the attached revised documents.

Curbless streets often become unkempt with grass, weeds
and dirt loosely defining the edge between roadway and
shoulder. To maintain visual tidiness, an 18”-24” roller-
compacted concrete (RCC) or rolled concrete apron may be
used to transition from roadway to landscape. The durability
and cost savings of this material is beneficial and provides
for a cleaner delineation of the roadway and amenity zone.

Fitting with the character, roadside swales are often seen
along rural or small-town streets or highways. They can
take many forms and be aesthetically pleasing or simply
utilitarian. They help detain and direct stormwater runoff
from the roadway and provide a layer of buffer between
sidewalk and street. Swales can be personalized by adjacent
property owners or fully planted and maintained by the City.
Small pedestrian bridges can connect the street to sidewalk
at each property. Each can take on a slightly different design
language or be required to adhere to set design guidelines.
These bridges could be a unique contribution to a ‘B’ Street
that features minimal design qualities.

Each component from street, to swale, to narrow residential
sidewalk works together to maintain a small town feel. No
improvements should look over-engineered or oversized on
Yorkville’s quaint neighborhood streets. These ‘B’ Streets
should feel like a place where kids can play in the street and
parents can take a quiet nighttime stroll.

Curbless streets often become unkempt with grass, weeds
and dirt loosely defining the edge between roadway and
shoulder. To maintain visual tidiness, a 18"-24" concrete
curb ribbon may be used to transition from roadway to
landscape. This straight curb type is often used along roads
to prevent vehicles from crossing over into a pedestrian
walkway or any outdoor landscaped area and provides a
barrier between the roadway and amenity zone.
Roadside Swales
Fitting with the character, roadside swales are often seen
along rural or small-town streets or highways. They can
take many forms and be aesthetically pleasing or simply

4 Yorkville Downtown Overlay District
A streetscape master plan provides guidance for the
direction and character of future street related capital
improvement projects. As downtown Yorkville continues
to evolve, so too should its streets and public spaces to
support the changing land uses over time. Downtown has
experienced multiple moments of transition over the years,
but recently, downtown has experienced a renaissance
of sorts with desirable new restaurants and small local
businesses occupying existing structures. An improved Fox
River-oriented park and other recreational amenities add
another layer to downtown’s assets.
Introduction
At its heart, Yorkville is a small-town on a sleepy river with
residents committed to improving the quality of the city for
all. What better place to start than improving a downtown
that should be the center of the community, where events,
festivals, and family gatherings take place regularly. The
streets of downtown Yorkville should be the armature that
supports these functions and helps contribute to building
community and quality of life.

Streetscape
Master Plan
Because downtown Yorkville needs one. Investors and
property owners interested in improving their downtown
assets may think twice if they do not sense a commitment
from the City. The downtown TIF I was certainly an effort
to encourage redevelopment within downtown and TIF
II is an added incentive for owners to invest; however,
the lack of an inspiring plan that presents future capital
improvement priorities for the City leaves much to be
desired. This streetscape master plan is intended to get
people excited about the potential of downtown. Knowing
that improvements are in the pipeline, investors can get out
in front and establish a presence prior to downtown realizing
its full potential.
A streetscape master plan’s focus is on the public realm -
most notably the streets, furnishing zones, and sidewalks.
It helps to establish what role each street will play moving
forward. For example, it establishes which streets are ‘A’
Streets; meaning a street that should be accompanied by
building frontages, glazing, signage, and activity. They are the
Why a Streetscape Master Plan?
streets that residents come to downtown to stroll along and
enjoy a sunny Saturday afternoon. Alternatively, a ‘B’ Street
supports the ‘A’ Street. Parking access, sides of buildings,
and service oriented functions should be accessed off ‘B’
Streets. Like ‘A’ Streets, they are critical to the functioning
successes of places we love. Accommodating both within
downtown, while defining which is which, can help property
owners prioritize where their future front entry is located or
where that new café tenant should face.
Downtown was identified as a primary concern in the 2016
Yorkville Comprehensive Plan for good reason. Despite its
current downfalls, downtown contains exciting assets to
build upon. Restaurants, old buildings packed with potential,
plenty of infill and redevelopment opportunities, and a
fantastic recreational amenity in the Fox River, all bode well
for the future of downtown. This plan demonstrates some of
the strategies the City can implement to pave the way for the
future of downtown.
Figure 1 - Bridge Street (Farr Associates)
Streetscape Master Plan 7
The streetscape master plan is structured to complement
the Downtown Yorkville Form-Based Code. Form-based
codes (FBC) are land development regulations that seek to
produce predictable built results that prioritize building form
over building use as a distinguishing factor. Often times, a
regulatory zone or framework is applied at the block level,
much like zoning, where parcels fall into a specific FBC
classification.
The Downtown Yorkville Form-Based Code uses the street
types as a regulatory framework. The parcels that front a
specific street type identified in this plan use that street type
as the underlying FBC classification. If a parcel fronts more
than one street, the FBC articulates the process of discerning
which FBC zone takes precedent. The FBC includes further
instruction on how to identify a parcel, determine the
underlying regulatory zone, and easily interpret the zone’s
requirements for redevelopment.
The streetscape master plan brings a visual interpretation of
what form and character future capital improvements will
exhibit. Though the streetscape master plan and the FBC are
intended to be stand-alone documents, they are coordinated
efforts that provide layers of detail to collectively envision
the future of downtown Yorkville.
The series of diagrams on the right is from the Form-Based
Codes Institute (FBCI) and meant to visualize the physical
consequences that stem from conventional zoning (top),
conventional zoning with supporting design guidelines
(middle), and form-based codes (right). Standards that
prioritize form over use have the capabilities of encouraging
a more fine-grained outcome.

The following street types represent what will be the
guiding framework for the form-based code (FBC) parcel
classifications. Parcels fronting their respective street type
should follow the form-based guidelines outlined in the
Downtown Yorkville Form-Based Code. The different street
types are
• 'A' Streets
• Bridge Street
• Hydraulic Street
• Van Emmon
• 'B' Streets

10 Yorkville Downtown Overlay District
Bridge Street, between Hydraulic Street to the north and
Van Emmon Street to the south, was clearly the historic
downtown core of Yorkville. Though this stretch is only one
block long, it retains much of the scale and character of the
past. Bridge Street was historically a two travel-lane street
with parallel parking on either side to serve the businesses.
Traffic became congested, since Bridge Street (IL 47) is the
main truck route through Yorkville. The Illinois Department
of Transportation (IDOT) studied widening the street along
with other improvements to alleviate the congestion. Many
years after the initial plan of a five-lane Bridge Street, the
proposal was finally taken to construction. Yorkville residents
were anxious to speed up flow through a downtown long
removed from representing the heart of the community.
Since the IDOT improvements, the commercial viability of the
businesses were challenged. Travel lanes replaced parallel
parking and concrete barriers were placed between street
and sidewalk. The combination of road widening, increased
speed, lack of parallel parking, and other factors drove many
of the primary building entries around to the backs of the
Bridge Street buildings. The increased speeds and lack of
pedestrian traffic along Bridge Street have effectively drained
downtown of any potential for vitality. Residents have
mixed opinions about the impacts of IDOT’s improvements;
however, it is clear that the term “improvements” may not
be the correct expression for Bridge Street’s new character.
This stretch of Bridge Street may be considered the gateway
into downtown Yorkville and retains potential to become the
iconic stretch that helps draw people into local businesses
and displays an attractive image that represents the people
of Yorkville.

(Near-Term)
Meaningful measures to display an image of vitality and
interest can be taken with a cost sensitive approach. For
example, instead of temporarily narrowing traffic lanes or
tearing down the now important concrete barriers flanking
Bridge Street; beautification strategies might include
painting the concrete barriers and hand rails with a custom
design or painting large iconic murals on the blank downtown
building walls. Each of these interventions could contribute
to the overall character of downtown and play a dual role of
encouraging vehicular and pedestrian traffic to be cautious
and slow down.
Because this segment of Bridge Street is such an important
gateway for the City, concentrating multiple interventions
on this location within the greater downtown should take
priority over other streets and locations. Drivers would
recognize that downtown could be worth visiting. The larger
scale of these proposed interventions caters to the car,
because it is in this brief moment that downtown has to
attract the attention of passersby.

Bridge Street (Near-Term)
14 Yorkville Downtown Overlay District
The existing Bridge Street right-of-way affords very little
flexibility for major improvements; however, that does not
preclude meaningful upgrades from happening. Squeezing
in improvements where possible, such as: the addition of
seasonal banners to the light poles; repaving the sidewalks
with high-quality and interesting materials for pedestrians; or
replacing the damaged handrail with a feature handrail that
may be an art installation; can make a surprisingly dramatic
impact for both drivers and pedestrians. Additionally, if the
buildings better engage the sidewalks through accessible
entrances, signage, and outdoor seating options, this would
improve this highly visible stretch of downtown Yorkville.
A reduction in lane width on Bridge street, which would
require a reclassification from IDOT to remove its truck route
status, is not currently an option. Therefore, a five-lane
street will likely be the long-term reality.
It will be critical for the City to address the perception
issues with Bridge Street through near-term solutions that
may last many years. Near-term strategies can add value to
downtown Yorkville through amplified crosswalks, branding
and wayfinding elements, visible outdoor seating, and much
more.

Hydraulic Street includes complex conditions, such as utility
poles landing in the street; a tapering right-of-way that
narrows from west to east; and an active freight rail line that
runs parallel to the street surface within the right-of-way.
Because it runs parallel to the Fox River, there are multiple
access and view corridors that connect pedestrians on
Hydraulic Street to one of Yorkville’s most important assets.
The freight rail line tracks are immediately adjacent to the
southern edge of the street. This proximity could be a safety
issue; however, during the citizen engagement events,
residents did not voice much concern over the rail, except
the noise complaints and potential for trains to back up traffic
along Bridge Street. Though only one rail company utilizes
the line, it is important to the natural gas industry because
it accesses select sand used for the fracking process. Any
expectations of the rail line closure are unrealistic, at least in
the near-term. The active rail line will remain something that
any redesign plans, current or future, must address.
Hydraulic Street features a unique industrial character as a
result of the rail and adjacent buildings and uses. The short,
utilitarian buildings, as well as agricultural relics, such as
the grain elevator, create an eclectic mix of land uses and
character. Multiple popular businesses and parks exist
along Hydraulic Street, and the existing character seems to
support these types of businesses. As improvements occur
to make Hydraulic Street a more attractive, safe, and usable
street, a respect for its industrial past and present should be
retained.

Hydraulic Street character will remain unique and interesting
with or without planning interventions. The low traffic
counts and limited number of businesses that currently front
onto Hydraulic Street suggest that a lower level of resources
should be placed in its near-term improvements.
However, a few key improvements that help support the
current businesses should be prioritized. This could include
allowing outdoor seating areas either in the parking lots or
at the edge of the street and sidewalks; painting the existing
light poles with unique artwork; adding seasonal banners
to the existing light poles; and improving the rear facade
of Bridge Street, as this has effectively become the primary
entry to many of those businesses. The rear facade of the
Bridge Street buildings is highly visible since no structures
currently exist to obscure mid-block views.
Additionally, moveable planters with trees and other
vegetation could bring life, shade, and color to an otherwise
utilitarian Hydraulic Street.

The unique qualities of Hydraulic Street with its irregular
street section, limited traffic count, paralleling of the Fox
River, and already funky, casual character lends itself well
to becoming a woonerf, or “shared street”. This long-term
vision would allow Hydraulic Street to be closed down for
festivals or events between the current driveway aligning
with the rear entrances of the Bridge Street buildings and
Heustis or Mill Street. Circulation around the block would
still be possible through the use of a “slip lane” or access lane
that would run along the south edge of the railroad tracks in
order to access future redevelopment on those parcels.
Hydraulic Street could take on a unique design such
as permeable pavers to add character and stormwater
management benefits. Being adjacent to the Fox River,
an effort to minimize stormwater runoff and encourage
percolation would be an environmentally conscious solution.
Continuous pavers spanning between vehicular travel areas
and traditional pedestrian areas would effectively blur the
line between pedestrian and car right-of-way. This would
encourage slow moving traffic on non-event days when
Hydraulic Street is open, and add an attractive frontage for
the businesses along Hydraulic Street.
A shared street deserves a custom design. When City budget
is allocated towards Hydraulic Street capital improvements,
an emphasis should be placed on hiring highly-qualified
landscape architects experienced in right-of-way redesign.

As previously mentioned, a shared street should blur
the lines between vehicle and pedestrian zones. Subtle
changes to paving materials and the use of planters, street
furnishings, and markings can define where cars should or
should not drive. Since Hydraulic Street runs parallel with
the Fox River, a street section that sheet flows stormwater
into a continuous drainage channel within paving change
is an example of integrated street design. These site design
details are important, as this will become a major downtown
event location.

Subtle paving details, such as a change in material, texture,
or orientation, contribute interest to the pedestrian
environment. Minor variations can help make a design
unique to a specific location and help brand the place.
Paving details may be used to delineate where vehicles are
allowed to drive or park. These variations may help inform
the location of custom street furniture, emphasize locations
for tree plantings and signage locations, or simply add
aesthetic appeal.
Shared streets typically have vehicular travel routes and
parking at the same elevation as a sidewalk. This means
that the street section will not have its typical curb and
gutter condition and will also need to reconcile where a
regular street meets the woonerf. Raised intersections and
crosswalks commonly feature short ramp transition zones to
raise travel lanes to the desired shared height. The transition
zones can also help alert drivers that they are entering a
special area and a heightened awareness for pedestrians is
necessary.
A custom street design can include custom street planters
and seating. In the instance of a shared street, raised planters
made of a durable material could house low plantings and
street trees; accommodate one or multiple built in seating
ledges; and play a role in vehicular circulation by delineating
the travel lanes, narrowing travel lanes to encourage slower
travel speeds, or creating chicanes that slow-traffic to a
greater degree.

Traveling east from downtown Yorkville, Van Emmon Street
eventually becomes Van Emmon Road and meets Route 71,
which connects Yorkville with Oswego. Van Emmon Street
acts as the second gateway into downtown, particularly at its
intersection with Bridge Street. Recently, buildings have been
torn down along Van Emmon Street and the expectation of
future redevelopment is not unreasonable.
The approach traveling west into downtown along Van
Emmon does not best represent Yorkville. Vegetation
overgrowth between Mill Street and Heustis Street; an
imbalanced street section of residential buildings with
parking in front; a concrete retaining wall; and multiple
“missing teeth” in the urban fabric leave much to be desired.
Additionally, the intersection of Van Emmon Street and
Bridge Street is not particularly inspiring, as each corner
does not activate the intersection. Businesses are making an
effort at providing visible programming at the intersection,
but improvements are needed to establish the cohesive
image the downtown Yorkville deserves.
Van Emmon Street west of Bridge Street has a different
character. It generally becomes more residential after the
first half block. Naturally, the street section abruptly adjusts
as it enters the neighborhood.

Tactical Interventions
Van Emmon Street
(Near-Term)
Interventions should be focused at the intersection of Van
Emmon Street and Bridge Street. Businesses on either
side of the intersection are already considering providing
outdoor seating options, which would add visible energy
to the downtown when approaching from the south. This is
a positive direction and can be amplified with the removal
of parking spaces to construct a temporary or permanent
parklet, providing a canopy or other form of weather
protection, or introducing outdoor space heaters to extend
seating months.
This intersection is also the primary crossing for pedestrians
and vehicles moving between the east and west sides of
Bridge Street due to traffic signalization and pedestrian
crossing indicators. Painting the crosswalk and intersection
would be an opportunity to brand downtown, enhance
safety and visibility for crossing pedestrians, and draw
attention to its businesses.
In addition to intersection treatments, the southwest corner
of the intersection could be used for signage that greets
residents and visitors traveling into downtown. Plans are
already underway to improve the County Courthouse slope.

Van Emmon Street should be beautiful to establish a first
impression to visitors, particularly east of Bridge Street. The
mix of topography and building forms can be challenging
when the desired outcome is a pleasant street; however, the
asymmetry can be accommodated through careful design
considerations.
A primary consideration should include where stormwater
is flowing. With elevated parcels on the south edge of Van
Emmon Street, surface water will flow towards the street
and sidewalk. Utilizing rain gardens that temporarily store
rainwater before discharge or percolation and/or using
permeable pavers that allow water to dissipate through the
parking surface, are ways to accommodate the increased
runoff. Also helping with stormwater, street trees should
be planted on either side of the approach from the east to
create a block long gateway when driving into Yorkville from
Oswego.
Downtown branding elements, such as seasonal banners and
wayfinding signage, can add to the cohesion of downtown.
The historic Kendall County Courthouse slope can act as a
gateway feature incorporating signage, or some other built
element, to establish a four-sided Van Emmon and Bridge
Street intersect. These improvements could be completed in
the near-term with the expectation that they would remain
as other capital improvements take place.

Bulb-outs typically narrow roadways to direct traffic,
slow speeds down, expand the sidewalk, or simply
accommodate plantings. Integrating bulb-outs that also
perform stormwater management functions, would be an
attractive design feature along Van Emmon Street. Bulb-out
curbs should be slotted, or notched with openings, to allow
surface stormwater to enter and exit the planting zone of
the bulb-out.
Stormwater Bulb-Outs
Figure 40 - Stormwater Bulb-Out (Toni Best)
Figure 41 - Rain Garden (Vava)
Figure 42 - Permeable Pavers (Terran Capital)
Stormwater rain gardens could be used to improve runoff
quality and provide detention for significant storm events.
Like bulb-outs, they can accommodate a variety of planting
types and should have inlets allowing water to flow in and
out from the street. Trees and a variety of plantings that
provide color and texture would add to the beautification of
Van Emmon Street.
Tying designs back to other streets within downtown, Van
Emmon Street could feature open grid permeable pavers
that both define the parking areas and increase stormwater
capacity. Coordinating pavers between Van Emmon Street,
Hydraulic Street, and any other location they are used in
the greater downtown would support a cohesive design and
branding language.

One of the most charming aspects of Yorkville, is the historic,
small-town character inherent in the City’s streets and
buildings. These streets may have narrow or no sidewalks,
are often curbless, and exhibit a casual feel that may
slightly change between each individual property. Many of
these streets are both the front door and driveway access
to homes and buildings. These types of streets that serve
buildings through parking and service access are vital to the
functionality of the neighborhoods.
Around downtown the north/south streets that run parallel
with Bridge Street act as ‘B’ Streets. These streets that
feature a small-town character should continue to support
the downtown uses, as well as provide a framework for
future development to take place.
Because future development will likely be limited, to an
extent, and single-family homes exist immediately adjacent
to the downtown blocks, the ‘B’ Streets should maintain a
small-town character that aligns with many future uses but
does not negatively affect existing single-family homes.

Tactical Interventions
‘B’ Street
(Near-Term)
The ‘B’ Streets should be less of an investment priority. They
receive less of the pedestrian and vehicular traffic compared
to Bridge Street, Hydraulic Street, and Van Emmon Street.
It is imporant that they play a supporting role, but resource
allocation should be minimal.
Ensuring sidewalk continuity and basic maintenance should
be the City's top priority. Having overgrown landscape
shoulders, missing and poorly maintained portions of the
sidewalks, and poor road surfacing are examples of issues
that should be addressed. Downtown’s ‘B’ Streets should be
eligible for resurfacing and landscape maintenance.
One unique aspect of downtown’s ‘B’ Streets, which
primarily run north/south, is how they terminate into the Fox
River. Each of these moments where drivers and pedestrians
can look down the street and have a visual connection to
the river is an opportunity that should be taken advantage
of by implementing such measures as prohibiting parking,
providing an active or focal point of interest, and trimming
back overgrown vegetation to reveal the water.

As streets are rebuilt to support a changing downtown, it
will remain important to minimize impact on the pleasant,
historic character of the surrounding neighborhood. Careful
design consideration to not over-correct the ‘B’ Streets
should be maintained. Community members have expressed
how they value the small-town character that brought many
of them to Yorkville, or kept them there, in the first place.
Roadside swales can be used to both direct and detain
stormwater. Plantings can include a mixture of City
contributions and resident contributions. This will allow
the property owner to make some customizations to the
extension of their front lawn. For example, small wooden
bridges might connect the street with the sidewalk to their
front door. These small customizations add to the character
that already exists.
Small details can make these streets more attractive, such
as having a curbless intersection that allows stormwater
runoff to enter the roadside swales. The edge of the
street pavement can be a gravel transition that delineates
between travel lane and shoulder. Trees could be planted
irregularly or even provided by the property owners from
an approved landscape palette. Sidewalks should be narrow,
but continuous to have minimal impact while providing
maximum connectivity.

Curbless streets often become unkempt with grass, weeds,
and dirt loosely defining the edge between roadway and
shoulder. To maintain visual tidiness, an 18” - 24” gravel edge
may be used to transition from roadway to landscape. This
can be maintained more easily and provides clear delineation
of the roadway and amenity zone.
Fitting with the character, roadside swales are often seen
along rural or small-town streets or highways. They can
take many forms and be aesthetically pleasing or simply
utilitarian. They help detain and direct stormwater runoff
from the roadway and provide a layer of buffer between
sidewalk and street. Swales can be personalized by adjacent
property owners or fully planted and maintained by the City.
Small pedestrian bridges can connect the street to sidewalk
at each property. Each can take on a slightly different design
language or be required to adhere to set design guidelines.
These bridges could be a unique contribution to a ‘B’ Street
that features minimal design qualities.

Each component from curbless street, to swale, to narrow
residential sidewalk works together to maintain a small
town feel. No improvements should look over-engineered or
oversized on Yorkville’s quaint neighborhood streets. These
‘B’ Streets should feel like a place where kids can play in the
street and parents can take a quiet nighttime stroll.

Cohesive Downtown Signage
Downtown Signage
and Wayfinding
Effectively navigating downtown is one of the major elements
to be improved. For example, there is currently sufficient
parking to accommodate patrons of the downtown uses;
however, that parking is dispersed unevenly throughout
downtown and is difficult to locate unless you are familiar
with the area. Situations, such as no left turns allowed at
the Bridge Street and Hydraulic Street intersection, make it
difficult to navigate if a turn is missed and an opportunity to
redirect is not obvious.
One way to help alleviate this problem is through providing
downtown signage. This signage can make a statement and
solidify a cohesive brand and image for the area as a whole.
From signage to banners or emblems, consistent, beautiful
signage shows visitors that the city cares about providing an
inviting user experience.

42 Yorkville Downtown Overlay District
Starting with three different wayfinding sign types: (1) an
informational kiosk; (2) pole mounted directional signage;
and (3) branded wayfinding signage; Yorkville can make a
near-term impact on how users navigate the area.
Informational kiosks can house either rotating or stationary
content, such as maps, historic markers, or recreational
programming. Maps can help pedestrians identify where
they are in relation to other nearby destinations and help
them discover new places to explore. These kiosks will be
sidewalk mounted and cater to the pedestrian over vehicles.
Directional signage is most effectively mounted on the
existing light poles in locations that help drivers know when
to turn for parking or riverfront access. The directional
signage should have a specific purpose of getting someone
from point A to point B. Though these signs should be pole
mounted and high enough to be visible for passing cars, they
should also be easily visible to pedestrians.
As with each type of sign, wayfinding signage should be
both branded and informative, letting users know that
they are located in the proper area or neighborhood and
provide markers for points of interest. Points of interest
within downtown Yorkville may include specific restaurants,
the historic Kendall County Courthouse, County offices,
Bicentennial Riverfront Park, and public parking lots.

Lighting is a key component of walkability, as it lends itself to
creating a more safe environment for pedestrians. There are
several streets where street lighting exists, but the lighting
is inconsistent and is not always human-scaled. Lighting
in the downtown can serve multiple functions, including
branding the area, creating more vibrancy, and increasing
safe conditions for residents and visitors. The increase
and consistency of lighting gives people a sense of street
character and trust of what is to come, and encourages
walking and biking.
Nancy Clanton of Clanton & Associates has provided
lighting best-practices for municipalities by creating some
“dos and don’ts” for street and facade lighting. In general,
well-designed lighting strategies should not only light the
area, but take into account all view angles while creating a
beautiful ambiance without glare and annoyance. The list on
page 45 expands on Nancy Clanton’s strategies.
High color temperature (CCT) light sources have the highest
concentration of blue light. Many municipalities are limiting
the CCT of their street and pedestrian lighting to 3000K or
less which is similar to the color of the setting sun. Dimming
or turning off lighting is another strategy to reduce over-
lighting an area.
Ideally, light sources should change color over the course of
the evening and into the late night. Blue light will enhance
visibility during the rush hour, but as vehicular and pedestrian
traffic decreases at night, the spectrum can minimize blue
light and switch to the red range.

Street Lighting
• Light sidewalks and streets appropriately for the
neighborhood and explicitly where needed
• Use low-glare streetlights
• Minimize uplight of all kinds (cobra lights, etc.)
Building Lighting
• Mount light at the top of facades and aim inward
• Emphasize architectural features such as columns and
arches using beam distributions
• Use warm-colored, dim light
Public Space Lighting
• Define the space with lighting of a consistent type and
brightness
• Dimly light the features where people gather: seating
areas, outdoor dining, public parks and plazas
Street Lighting
• Use streetlights to light yards and private property
• Overlight
• Use high-glare streetlights
Building Lighting
• Aim across a visual path with a floodlight
• Aim up a façade
• Overlight
• Select glaring luminaries
Public Space Lighting
• Light individual elements unless they are features
• Flood the public space with heavy lighting
• Appear messy and unorganized
• Include multiple types of lighting accomplishing the
same goal

46 Yorkville Downtown Overlay District
It is widely understood that stormwater runoff from roofs,
pavement, and other urban surfaces are contributing to
water body degradation and flooding. Minimizing this impact,
particularly in urban contexts, is often difficult because of
the amount of land dedicated to dense buildings, supportive
surface parking lots, and wide streets with generous
sidewalks; however, there are strategies to accommodate
both the urban and green infrastructure solutions.
Yorkville has been a settlement for a long time - even longer
than many other cities and villages in the greater Chicago
area. The Fox River was the main reason for locating Yorkville
where it is today, so taking measures to preserve the water
quality, beauty, and function of the river should be a priority.
The City has old stormwater infrastructure, so removing
some of the burden would help to lengthen its useful life.
As capital improvements occur, there is an opportunity to
do two things: 1) updated the stormwater infrastructure and
2) construct green infrastructure in the public rights-of-way
to reduce potential negative impacts of storm surges and
surface runoff degradation the Fox River. Strategies such as
rain gardens, bioswales on the sloped streets, or even green
roofs could all contribute to beauty and utility.

Figure 69 - Rain Garden Signage (City of Springfield, MO)
Green infrastructure is not familiar to everyone, so these
can be excellent educational opportunities for the public.
Signage and story-telling of why the City is placing rain
gardens next to sidewalks and bioswales cascading down
slopes could encourage residents to invest in doing the same
on their properties. Additionally, the City could incentivize
rain gardens or rain water cisterns for private residences to
minimize negative impacts on natural resources and reduce
flooding.
Signage Encouraging Awareness
Streetscape Master Plan 47
Permeable paving products, such as porous asphalt and
concrete, as well as permeable pavers allow water to pass
through the surface and into a stone storage layer below.
The water stored in the stone layer either infiltrates into the
soil below or is slowly released to a sewer or other drainage
system to reduce stormwater runoff volumes and rates.
Sediment, metals, and organic compounds are filtered and/
or biologically treated as the runoff moves through and is
stored in the system.
Properly designed permeable paving systems are applicable
to both pedestrian and vehicular areas. Permeable paving
should be avoided in the through lanes of high traffic areas
(such as County and State highway routes) and areas of
high sediment or other pollutant loading that could clog the
system or overwhelm the system’s ability to treat typical
urban runoff pollutants.
Ideal locations for pervious pavement might be Hydraulic
Street, parallel parking lanes, mid-block alleys, and surface
parking lots.
Pervious Pavement
Figure 70 - Pervious Pavers (Techniseal)
Figure 71 - Pervious Pavers (MWMO)
Figure 72 - Paver Laying Machine (Detroit News)
Pavers appear laborious to lay down in large quantities, such
as a street or sidewalk; however, technology advancements
have bred paver laying machines that lay down entire
swaths of pavers in one motion. This drastically minimizes
installation times, but still provides that hand-laid, classic
look that is often loved for its character. Pavers can be cost
competitive to concrete, because of the external impact it
has on sizing stormwater infrastructure systems.
Installing Pervious Pavers
48 Yorkville Downtown Overlay District
Yorkville’s current downtown does not compete well with
some of the loved downtowns nearby, such as Oswego and
Plainfield; however, it should not need to directly compete.
Yorkville can distinguish itself with its own identity and
unique character as a community. There are few better ways
to do this than through public art.
First and foremost, public art is free. Anyone can experience
and enjoy it. It also adds a layer of uniqueness when so
many downtowns attempt to emulate each other and
therefore lose some of their authenticity. There are plenty
of opportunities for public art, from blank walls on the sides
of buildings, to vacant parcels and parking lots, and even
the grain elevator. Each can become a canvas for community
expression.
The City should seek to commission works in addition to
allowing community members to contribute pieces to the
collection through interactive events for residents of all ages.
When everyone can get involved, there is more of a sense of
ownership over the end product. Public art is a medium to
show visitors what Yorkville is all about.
The Role of Public Art
Public Art
and Sculpture
Figure 73 - Wall Mural on Blank Wall (City of Missouri City)
Figure 74 - Interactive Sculpture (ISU College of Design)
Figure 75 - Temporary Installation (Playscapes)
Not only can art be something to experience visually, but it
can also be interactive. This can be done through sculptures
that encourage climbing or provide a backdrop for a
photograph. Art can cater to children and adults alike and
should remain informal enough to fit into Yorkville’s beloved
small-town character.

52 Yorkville Downtown Overlay District
The Downtown Overlay District context scale includes both
the defined downtown from the 2016 Comprehensive Plan
and the immediate surrounding areas, which includes the
north banks of the Fox River. The following series of analysis
maps reveals that downtown Yorkville has a variety of
commercial, industrial, and public land uses surrounded by
primarily lower density single-family housing. The underlying
zoning allows for a more intense development pattern
than currently exists; therefore, downtown has potential
to densify and redevelop to more intense land uses. With
relatively high traffic counts along Bridge Street, downtown
experiences crosstown traffic that makes it visible and
accessible by pedestrians and vehicles, and it could take
advantage of higher traffic through non-residential uses.
A TIF 1 and 2 are current and future strategies that seek to
encourage reinvestment in the downtown. Though the TIF
boundaries are not consistent with the downtown boundary
defined in the map, it does include much of the downtown
land and parcels along the Fox River. Parcels along the Fox
River may be the most attractive to investors because of the
views towards the river and access to recreation.
Investment in public space along the river has helped provide
a destination for visitors and residents alike. Additionally,
recreational bicycle facilities, trails, and connections to the
greater trail system offer opportunities to improve quality
of life and may become a catalyst for future real estate
investment.

60 Yorkville Downtown Overlay District
The Downtown Overlay District site scale includes most of
the downtown as defined in the 2016 Comprehensive Plan,
as well as the immediate areas to the north and south. The
following series of analysis maps illustrates that downtown
Yorkville features a walkable grid; however, certain factors
are minimizing its effectiveness. Notable contributing factors
include segments of non-continuous sidewalks, primary
building entries being oriented towards parking lots, and
blocks that feature highly visible surface parking.
The primary stretch of downtown is defined by buildings
that are built to the sidewalk in a continuous row along
Bridge Street; however, Bridge Street’s priority as a truck
route has added to an anti-pedestrian feel. With only a small
stretch of downtown being defined by urban building types,
walkability is limited.
There are few buildings taller than two-stories, which reduces
visual cues that downtown Yorkville is in fact a downtown.
Some exceptions to this include the historic courthouse and
grain elevator, which provide a unique sense of place. Large,
vacant, or underutilized parcels are ripe for redevelopment
and, with generous underlying zoning, should be attractive
investments with modified guidelines.

were conentrated in the 18 - 49 years old range. Key
takeaways from the online survey include:
• A faster actual driving speed on Bridge Street is revealed
• People seem to feel safer than expected walking along
Bridge Street; however, online comments conflict
• There is a perceived or real lack of parking
• Bridge Street is clearly important from a downtown
image standpoint
• All gateway elements seem popular; however, the
overhead lights are leading
• Bridge Street, Hydraulic Street, and Van Emmon Street
are the focus
• The form-based code should not regulate architectural

Yorkville Downtown Overlay District Form-Based Code4DRAFTA. Title
This Article 10-21 shall be known, cited, and referred to as the
Downtown Overlay District code. Any reference to this Article following
its effective date shall mean this entire Article as it may hereafter be
amended.
B. Intent
It is the intent of this Article to provide development standards to the
United City of Yorkville for downtown and adjacent redevelopment
areas that promote public health, safety, and general welfare of the
community, including, but not limited to the specific purposes set forth
below.
1. To guide the development of a mix of uses and a pedestrian-
oriented environment as established in the United City of Yorkville
2016 Comprehensive Plan, adopted September 2016, and the
2019 Yorkville Downtown Overlay District Streetscape Master Plan.
2. To provide for a mix of housing types within the Downtown Overlay
District and adjacent areas for people of all ages and lifestyles.
3. To achieve development that is appropriate in scale and intensity
for the Downtown Overlay District and adjacent neighborhoods.
C. Overview of the Code
1. Section 10-21-2: Districts. These regulations are organized within
street types for adoption into the City’s existing code. These zoning
districts shall be mapped on the City’s Zoning Map; however, the
Primary Streets designation shall be referenced from Figure 10-
21-2G (4). The following Districts are established for mixed use,
commercial, and residential development within downtown and
adjacent redevelopment areas. Figure 10-21-1B (1) illustrates the
locations for the districts.
S1: Bridge Street District
S2: Hydraulic Street District
S3: Van Emmon Street District
S4: ‘B’ Street District
S5: ‘B’ Street - Residential District
3. Section 10-21-3: Uses. Use requirements are defined in Section
10-21-3 for each of the Street Districts. Uses may also be further
limited by the Building Types. Refer to Section 10-21-2 Building
Types and the “Uses” section in the tables per building type.
4. Section 10-21-4: Building Types. Six (6) Building Types are
defined for use in the Street Districts. A mix of building types are
typically permitted per district. These Building Types outline the
desired building forms for the new construction and renovation of
structures and contain regulations that determine physical building
elements such as build-to-zones, transparency levels, entrance
location, and parking location. Refer to Figure 10-21-4A (1) for a
typical Building Type page layout.
5. Section 10-21-5: Site Development Standards. The site
development standards provide references to other City ordinances
or parts of the zoning ordinance and may include additional
information or revision to those ordinances applicable only to the
Street Districts. These include signage, parking, and landscape.
D. Applicability
These regulations apply to the downtown and adjacent redevelopment
areas within the City as mapped on the City’s zoning map. Refer to
Figure 10-21-1B (1) for affected parcels.
E. How to Use the Code.

the code to a parcel. Throughout this section, call out boxes titled “How
to Use the Code” appear with code application instructions.
F. Development Approval Process
1. Site Plan Review. An approved site plan is required for the
development or redevelopment of all parcels in any District (refer to
10-4 of the Zoning Ordinance) with the following revisions:
(a) The Community Development Director may approve a major
site plan if the site plan complies with all requirements of
the city’s zoning ordinance. If the Community Development
Director denies approval of a major site plan, including the
provision of written comments as to the reason for such
denial, the denial may be appealed by the applicant to the
Planning and Zoning Commission for review. The Planning
and Zoning Commission shall then recommend approval to
City Council the major site plan, recommend approval to City
Council of the major site plan with conditions, or recommend
denial of the site plan to City Council.
2. Deviations. The Applicant shall submit requested deviations to the
Community Development Director with the Site Plan application.
The Director may approve deviations to a site plan for the following:
(a) Minor Deviations. The Community Development Director may
approve minor deviations to any dimension or percentage as
follows:
i. The location of the building within up to one (1) foot from
any minimum yard requirement or build-to zone width/

10-21-1 Introduction
Build-to Zone vs Setback Line
A setback line indicates the closest a building may be placed to a property line,
but is silent on where behind that line a building may be placed. A build-to zone
indicates a zone or area in which the Facade of a building must be located.
The use of a build-to zone allows some control over building placement, while
the range provides some flexibility. This method also provides an element of
predictability that is absent when the only requirement is to locate a building
beyond a certain line.

The Bridge Street District may be considered the gateway into downtown
Yorkville and retains potential to become the iconic stretch that helps
draw people into local businesses and displays an attractive image that
represents the people of Yorkville. The form of this retail and service-
centered area establishes a street wall of storefront style-building
facades with shallow build-to-zones along the sidewalk and parking in
the rear or off-site. It focuses pedestrian-friendly retail and service uses
on the ground story with office uses in upper stories.

B. S2: Hydraulic Street District
The Hydraulic Street District includes complex conditions, including
a tapering right-of-way that narrows from west to east and an active
freight rail line that runs parallel to the street surface within the right-
of-way. Hydraulic Street features short, utilitarian buildings, as well as
agricultural relics, such as the grain elevator, that create an eclectic mix
of land uses and character. The form of this area remains pedestrian-
centered but storefront-style buildings focus a broader spectrum of
retail and service uses on the ground story with residential and/or office
uses in upper stories.

F. Hierarchy of Districts
Development under this code is regulated by street type. The various
street types are related to each other in a hierarchical manner. When
these streets intersect, the primary street frontage is determined by
its higher order in the hierarchy. The front of a building and its main
entrance must face the primary street. Figure 10.21.2G (1) illustrates
the hierarchy of street types.
G. Primary Streets
The Primary Streets Map designates Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary
Streets within the Downtown Overlay District. These designations
prioritize the street frontages for locating the Front Lot Line for required
amounts building frontage and allowable amounts of parking frontage.
Refer to Figure 10.21.2G (4).
1. Vehicular Access. Vehicular access is also managed through this
street prioritization within the Building Type requirements (refer to
Section 10-21-4). See Figure 10.21.2G (2) and Figure 10.21.2G (3)
for illustration of permitted vehicular access locations.
(a) The order of access is typically as follows, unless otherwise
permitted by Building Type:
i. Lane (Tertiary Street) or Alley (un-mapped) permits
unlimited access.
ii. If no Lane or Alley exists, one (1) driveway per secondary
street frontage is permitted.
iii. If no tertiary or secondary street abuts the parcel, one
driveway is permitted off the Primary Street and shared
access with adjacent properties is encouraged.
(b) Refer to the Subdivision Control Ordinance for additional
requirements of vehicular access off adjacent streets.
Interparcel Access requirements shall be met.
2. Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary Street Designations.
(a) Primary Streets. Primary streets require the most intact and
continuous streetwall with few, if any, driveway access. The
Front Lot Line shall always be located on the Primary Street.
When a parcel is fronted by more than two (2) primary streets,
the Director shall determine which is the appropriate street
for the Front Lot Line. The determination should be based on
locations of existing and other proposed development Front
Lot Lines.
i. Vehicular access should not be located off a primary
street, unless no other options exists. Refer to Section
10-21-4 Building Type requirements for allowances of
vehicular access, if applicable.
(b) Secondary Streets. Secondary streets are intended to have a
fairly continuous streetwall, but will likely have a driveway for
each parcel. If no tertiary street exists, access will likely be off
the secondary street.
(c) Tertiary Streets. Tertiary streets typically have no streetwall
requirements and could be fronted by parking structures
and parking lots with multiple drives and/or vehicular access
points.

1. Uses by District. Permitted and special uses available in each form-
based district are shown in Table 10-21-3B (1).
2. Use Defi nitions. Uses listed in Tables 10-21-3C (1) - 10-21-3C (4)
are defined in Section 10-2-3 of the Zoning Ordinance. Further
definitions applicable only to the Yorkville Form-Based Districts are
located in Section 10-21-3C.
3. Permitted Use (“4”). These uses are permitted by-right in the form
districts in which they are listed.
4. Permitted in Upper Stories Only (“8”). These uses are permitted
by-right in the districts in which they are listed, provided that
the uses are located in the upper stories of a structure. These
uses may also be located in the ground story provided that they
are located beyond a depth of at least twenty feet from the front
primary facade.
5. Requires a Special Use Permit (“0”). These uses require a Special
Use Permit (refer to Section 10-6 Special Use Regulations) in order

applicable development standards associated with the use as well
as meet the requirements of the special use.
6. Permitted with Development Standards (“6”). These uses are
permitted in the districts in which they are listed, provided that
they are developed utilizing the listed development standards.
These standards, combined with the Building Type requirements,
are intended to alleviate any negative impacts associated with the

have been appropriate.
7. Prohibited Use. A blank cell or an unlisted use in the use table
indicates that the land use is prohibited in that district.
8. City Determination. When a proposed land use is not explicitly
listed in Table 10-21-3B (1), the Director shall determine
whether or not it is included in the definition of a listed use or
is so consistent with the size, scale, operating characteristics
and external impacts of a listed use that it should be treated as
the same use. Any such determination may be appealed to the
Planning and Zoning Commission.
9. Temporary Accessory Uses. Temporary accessory uses are
permitted in all Downtown Overlay Districts, including outdoor
displays, seasonal displays and sales, festivals, and vendors. The
following requirements apply:
(a) Outdoor displays are permitted up to eight (8) hours per day,
no more than three (3) consecutive days in any one (1) month.
(b) Build-to Zone. Temporary outdoor displays of merchandise are
permitted in the Build-to Zone without a permit, subject to all
other requirements of Section 10-21-3.
(c) Right-of-way. Any temporary outdoor display or occupation in
the right-of-way requires a review approval by the Community
Development Director.

from the width of the BTZ and is not included in the
calculation of the minimum front lot line.
(c) Occupation of Corner. Occupying the intersection of the front
and corner build-to zones with a principal structure.
(d) Front Build-to Zone. The build-to zone or setback parallel to
the front lot line. Building components, such as awnings or
signage, are permitted to encroach beyond the build-to zone.
i. All build-to zone and setback areas not covered by
building shall contain either landscape, patio space, or
sidewalk space.
(e) Corner Build-to Zone. The build-to zone or setback parallel to

D. Street Guidelines
1. General Street Guidelines. The following guidelines should apply
to all new streets within S Districts with the intent of creating
pedestrian oriented, multimodal streets.
(a) Typical Street Elements. All street rights-of-way should include
the following vehicular and pedestrian realm considerations.
Refer to Figure 10-21-5D (1).
(1) Vehicular Realm. The vehicular realm is comprised of the
travel lanes, bicycle lanes, and parking lanes.
(2) Pedestrian Realm. The pedestrian realm is comprised
of pedestrian facilities, such as sidewalk. A buffer area
that serves to buffer pedestrians or bicyclists from the
movements of higher speed vehicles in the vehicular
realm shall consist of one (1) of the following:
(i) Landscape Zone. A landscape area between the
back of curb to the sidewalk in which street trees,
stormwater swales, lighting, and signage may be
located. Typically used adjacent to residential
ground floor uses.
(ii) Furnishings Zone. A hardscape area that extends
from the sidewalk to the back of curb, in which
street trees, street furniture, lighting, and signage
may be located. Typically used adjacent to
commercial or office ground floor uses.
(b) Bicycle Facilities. Bicycle facilities, such as dedicated lanes
and dedicated shared lanes should be included on any streets
based on the City’s bicycle plan. New streets within S districts
shall utilize shared lanes. A shared lane refers to a street that
does not have bicycle lanes or a designated shared lane, but
the speed and configuration of the street is such that bicycles
could comfortably share lanes with traffic.
(c) Vehicular On-Street Parking. On-street parking, whether
parallel or diagonal, shall be included according to the District
Street Details for that street.
2. Street Trees. Street trees are required along all existing and new
street frontages.
(a) All planting material requirements within Landscaping and
Screening Guidelines shall be utilized.
(b) Street trees shall be located in either a Landscape Zone
(within a planting bed or lawn) or a Furnishings Zone (in trees
wells with grate as required).
(c) Permeable Surface. For each tree preserved or planted,
a minimum amount of permeable surface area is
recommended.
i. Preserved trees should have a permeable surface area
equal to the critical root zone. The critical root zone is
equal to half of the radius of the tree’s mature canopy,
measured from the trunk out to the dripline.
ii. Planted trees have a suggested minimum permeable
area and soil volume based upon tree size; refer to Table
10-21-5D (1) for details.
iii. Permeable area for one (1) tree cannot count toward that
of another tree.
(d) Structural Soil. When the critical root zone of an existing tree
or the suggested permeable surface area requirement of a
newly planted tree extends below any pavement, structural
soil is required underneath the pavement.
3. Pedestrian Lighting. Pedestrian light fixtures shall be installed per
the street requirements of the City’s Department of Public Works
and any streetscape master plan adopted by the City.

Figure 10-21-5D (2). Example of New Street and Block Configuration for
Large Parcels or When Multiple Parcels are Combined.
4. New Streets and Subdivision. For all developments with total parcel
acreage larger than five (5) acres, subdivision and construction
of a new street will yield the most buildings. (Building Types
require buildings to front streets). Refer to Figure 10-21-5D (2) for
an example of a typical new block and street configuration. The
following recommendations apply:
(a) Interconnected Street Pattern. Streets shall connect and
continue existing streets from adjoining areas and cul-de-sac
and dead end streets should be avoided.
(b) Blocks.
i. The shape of a block shall be generally rectangular, but
may vary due to natural features or site constraints.
ii. Blocks shall typically be two (2) lots deep with the
exception of blocks containing open space. Blocks may
also include an alley. Blocks may included existing lots
within an existing zoning district.
iii. Blocks shall typically be fronted with lots on at least two
(2) faces, preferably on the longest street faces.
iv. Consider lot and block orientation for maximum energy
efficiency. For example, block orientation along an east-
west longitudinal axis will encourage development of
buildings oriented along an east-west axis, with smaller
east and west facing facades, able to take advantage of
passive solar technology.
v. Block size should be less than four hundred (400) feet.
(c) Access Points. A minimum of two (2) access points should be
provided for each development, with a minimum of one (1)
per every 1,500 feet of boundary recommended.
(d) Primary Streets. Designate primary streets so that all
buildings front at least one primary street. Vehicular access
should not be located off a Primary Street, unless the parcel
is fronted by more than two primary streets.
(e) Blocks may include interior alleys or lanes.
(f) Typical Lot Configuration. All lots shall have frontage along
a public street unless otherwise specified in Building Type
requirements. Flag lots are prohibited.
