Roll call: Millen-yes, Olson-yes, Vinyard-yes, Williams-yes, Hyett-yes. Carried 5-0. Unfinished Business None New Business 1. PZC 2019-28 Text Amendment (See full description under Public Hearings) Chairman Olson commented that he didn't feel fingerprinting was necessary for food vendors. Page 3 of 5 Action Item: Text Amendment There was no discussion and a motion to approve was made and seconded by Commissioners Vinyard and Williams, respectively. Mr. Vinyard read the motion as follows: In consideration of testimony presented during a Public Hearing on January 8, 2020 and discussions conducted at that meeting, the Planning and Zoning Commission recommends approval to the City Council a request for a text amendment to Section 10- 3-14: Mobile Food Vendor Vehicles and Retail Vendor Vehicles of the United City of Yorkville Zoning Ordinance to remove the requirement for a Certificate of Registration, as recommended in a staff memo dated January 2, 2020. Roll call: Olson-yes, Vinyard-yes, Williams-yes, Hyett-yes, Millen-yes. Carried 5-0. 2. PZC 2019-29 GRNE Solar (See full description under Public Hearings) Mr. Engberg said the only changes that will be made are changing the fencing material to treated pine and to modify the landscaping on the west side. The maintenance of the fence was discussed and it was noted the wood is much less expensive than vinyl. The City will conduct windshield inspections twice a year. Cameras will be mounted inside the site per a request from the Kendall County Sheriff. Mr. Olson disagreed with bushes on the west since they will be small and said the west boundary landscaping should be consistent with the other sides. Mr. Engberg added the staff supported the landscaping changes since the neighbor to the west has approved that plan. Mr. Engberg summarized the required conditions including EEI comments. The County will hold a bond for the decommissioning of the property if necessary. Action Item: Special Use The Commissioners agreed on the fencing material and the revised landscaping. A motion was made by Mr. Vinyard and seconded by Mr. Williams to approve the GRNE special use permit. Attorney Kramer asked to revise the date on the landscaping plan. There was brief discussion of the wood fencing and the potential penalty if the fence is not maintained. Mr. Williams suggested the wood should also be pressure-treated. Mr. Vinyard read the motion as follows: In consideration of testimony presented during a Public Hearing on January 8, 2020 and discussion of the findings of fact, the Planning and Zoning Commission recommends approval to the City Council a request for Special Use authorization to construct a freestanding solar energy system, or solar farm, on a O Office District zoned property located at the southwest corner of the Kendall County Government Center subject to staff recommendations in a memo dated December 31, 2019 and further subject to the revised landscaping design dated 1-8-20 including wooden fence constructed minimally of pressure-treated materials. Roll call: Vinyard-yes, Williams-yes, Hyett-yes, Millen-yes, Olson-yes. Carried 5-0. 3. PZC 2019-30 CalAtlantic (See full description under Public Hearings) Ms. Noble noted there are two motions associated with this petition. The first is the PUD request for a sideyard setback from 10 feet to 6 feet. The builder is offering duplexes and trends are now showing that a one-story ranch is more popular. The ranch is a wider product and results in a reduced sideyard. The staff supports the setback request based on other such requests in the City. Page 4 of 5 Chairman Olson expressed some concern for the reduced setbacks. Ms. Noble said there were some incentives granted to take over this project. The builder front-funded a park and fees were paid for infrastructure. There was significant revenue brought to the City with this development. Fire suppression systems were also discussed in view of the reduced setbacks. It was requested to not have any flammable plant material such as mulch on the outside. Mr. Vinyard questioned the distance between the units and said that modern materials burn faster and hotter. Lennar rep Rick Murphy said the duplex units will have sprinklers. The second request for this petition is approval of the final plat. Action Item: PUD Amendment for Setbacks A motion was made and seconded by Commissioners Vinyard and Williams, respectively, to approve the PUD Amendment. Mr. Vinyard read the motion as follows: In consideration of testimony presented during a Public Hearing on January 8, 2020 and the standards for PUD approval and amendment, the Planning and Zoning Commission recommends approval to the City Council a reduction in side yard setback from ten (10) feet to six (6) feet for lots 262-284 in Unit 4 of the Raintree Village subdivision, as presented by the Petitioner Exhibit F Side Yard Setback. Roll call: Williams-yes, Hyett-yes, Millen-yes, Olson-yes, Vinyard-yes. Carried 5-0. Action Item: Final Plat Commissioners Vinyard and Williams moved and seconded, respectively, to approve the Final Plat for Raintree Village. Mr. Vinyard read the motion as follows: In consideration of the proposed Final Plat of Raintree Village, Unit Four 1st Resubdivision, the Planning and Zoning Commission recommends approval of the plat to the City Council as presented by the Petitioner in plans prepared by Mackie Consultant, LLC dated last revised 11-11-19, subject to review comments provided by the City Engineer, EEI, Inc. dated November 13, 2019. Roll call: Hyett-yes, Millen-yes, Olson-yes,Vinyard-yes, Williams-yes. Carried 5-0. 4. PZC 2019-31 Wrigley Manufacturing (See full description under Public Hearings) Mr. Engberg reviewed the staff conditions being recommended for the special use and said that both the wind turbine and solar panel meet the setback and location requirements. The height 11 feet 4 inches is a condition of the special use. The advertising on the blades is technically not allowed under city code, however, Mr. Engberg noted that the Economic Development Committee was in favor of keeping the advertising since it was unique. This is being requested as part of the special use. Ms. Noble said if the Commission votes to approve, the code will need to be amended to allow other businesses the same opportunity. Commissioners said they were in favor of this type of signage and Mr. Williams stated this may open up future expansion for Mars. Mr. Engberg also listed the four staff recommendations and Chairman Olson read the special use standards. Page 5 of 5 Action Item: Special Use Mr. Williams moved to approve the petition for special use permit and Mr. Vinyard seconded. Mr. Williams read the motion as follows: In consideration of testimony presented during a Public Hearing on January 8, 2020 and discussion of the findings of fact, the Planning and Zoning Commission recommends approval to the City Council a request for Special Use authorization to construct a freestanding solar energy system and wind turbine, on a M-1 Limited Manufacturing zoned property located at the entrance to the Wrigley Manufacturing Center on the east side of US Route 47, subject to staff recommendations in a memo dated December 31, 2019. Roll call: Millen-yes, Olson-yes, Vinyard-yes, Williams-yes, Hyett-yes. Carried 5-0. Additional Business Mr. Engberg noted City Council approval of a recent Text Amendment and Final Plat.

The real property is located in the O Office District over by John Street and Beecher Road at the Kendall County Government Campus in Yorkville. Also up for discussion is PZC 2019-30,CalAtlantic Group,Incorporated,a fully owned subsidiary of Lennar Homes,petitioner,has filed an application with the United City of Yorkville,Kendall County,Illinois,requesting amendment to the Raintree Village PUD agreement to reduce the minimum side yard setbacks for Lots 264 through 2 8 2 from ten feet to six feet for new construction townhomes within the Raintree Village development.The real property is generally located east of Illinois Route 47, south of Illinois Route 7 1 ,immediately west of Illinois Route 1 26 in Yorkville,Illinois. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 Vitosh Reporting Service 815.993.2832 cms.vitosh@gmail.com PZC -Public Hearings -January 8,2020 7 Finally up for discussion is PZC 2019-3 1 ,Brian Werner of Continental Electric,representing Wrigley Manufacturing, petitioner,has filed an application with the United City of Yorkville,Kendall County, Illinois,requesting Special Use Permit approval to install and operate a free-standing solar energy system and free-standing wind energy system at 2800 North Bridge Street,which is also 47.The real property,zoned as M -1 Limited Manufacturing District,is located on the east side of Illinois Route 47,south of the Sante Fe underpass,and north of Cannonball Trail. The petitioner is requesting for a single stationary solar panel and single vertical wind turbine to be located near the front of the property to power an illuminated sign. With that being said,Krysti,would you please present for 2019-28? MS.NOBLE:Sure.As you can recall,at about this time last year we approved a new amendment to our Zoning Ordinance that stipulated regulation for mobile food vendors and retail vendors,and that went over really well. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 Vitosh Reporting Service 815.993.2832 cms.vitosh@gmail.com PZC -Public Hearings -January 8,2020 8 We have different categories,one for private property,one for public property, and then food truck rallies,which is three -- more than three food trucks. We found out,though,that our regulations on private property --not the zoning regulations,but the registration regulations, that would require individuals who wanted to do a food truck on private property would have to come in and get a certificate of registration through the clerk's office. CHAIRMAN OLSON:Municipal license basically? MS.NOBLE:Correct.And through that process it required a fee of $25 for the first truck,$10 each for each additional truck,and it also required a background check,which included fingerprinting. We don't do fingerprinting here,we sent that out to the state,so we had to wait for the Illinois State Police to give us those results back.It takes at a minimum two weeks, and what we found is that the applicants were either dropping applications or just dropping out 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 Vitosh Reporting Service 815.993.2832 cms.vitosh@gmail.com PZC -Public Hearings -January 8,2020 9 of events completely,so they contacted the clerk's office,asked if we can re-evaluate the procedures for approval. We reached out to some communities, specifically Oswego,who has almost a similar ordinance,and they do not do fingerprinting and background checks. We also reached out to the police department and they were not opposed to eliminating that because they don't do individual background checks on private property for --if you have a restaurant for all the new employees, so they were okay with it. CHAIRMAN OLSON:Contractors. MS.NOBLE:Correct.So what we are proposing tonight is eliminate the phrase that requires obtaining a certificate of registration as part of the zoning process. The clerk separately is going to revise their section of the ordinance which talks about the fee requirement,and tonight you have a draft ordinance before you,and if you have any questions,let me know. We also have shown how we are 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 Vitosh Reporting Service 815.993.2832 cms.vitosh@gmail.com PZC -Public Hearings -January 8,2020 10 striking on our,you know,informational hand-out those particular sections,so it only affects on private property.We still will be doing background checks on public property and food truck rallies. CHAIRMAN OLSON:Okay.Is there anyone present from the public tonight that wants to speak in favor of the request? (No response.) CHAIRMAN OLSON:Is there anyone who would like to speak in opposition to the request? (No response.) CHAIRMAN OLSON:Is there any question from Commission members? MR.HYETT:The background checks,who pays for those? MS.NOBLE:So the applicant pays for them,so that's what the $25 fee was. MR.HYETT:And that's to the state? MS.NOBLE:Yes. CHAIRMAN OLSON:Anybody else? (No response.) CHAIRMAN OLSON:Is the petitioner for 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 Vitosh Reporting Service 815.993.2832 cms.vitosh@gmail.com PZC -Public Hearings -January 8,2020 11 P Z C 2019-29,GRNE Solar,present and prepared to make a presentation? DANIEL J .KRAMER, having been first duly sworn,testified from the podium as follows: MR.KRAMER:Good evening.My name is Daniel J .Kramer.My address is 110 7 A South Bridge Street,Yorkville,Illinois.I am a licensed attorney to practice in Illinois and I represent G RNE and Kendall County in this application,so it's nice seeing everybody in the new year. We spent some time together a couple meetings last year;the special use was approved.The good news is the county and GRNE were successful in getting a government grant for the facility. One of the bad things that happened to them,and one of the things that we came to you folks last year and said this was going to save our citizens money,and the grant was going to cover the process without burdening taxpayers with a lot of costs,unfortunately in a year's time,prices go up,and when they went back and 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 Vitosh Reporting Service 815.993.2832 cms.vitosh@gmail.com PZC -Public Hearings -January 8,2020 12 got quotes for fencing compared to when we were here last year,the prices on the vinyl went through the roof,which would involve the county hitting our local taxpayers with quite a bit of additional cost,so the c ity,not having a precise procedure in its ordinance to just come in and amend a special use,staff agreed with the petitioners,that basically asks for a new special use,and in effect we are asking you to reapprove the old special use with two simple changes:One,allowing to go to a total opaque wooden fence,same height,same all the way around the perimeter location,same --in the sense of there will be landscaping and so on,so simply a change in material;the second part of it was we have made commitments to the owners on the south and we're not changing an iota there, but we are asking on the west to scale back some of the landscaping. I 've been working with the gentleman from Renaissance Property Management over the last couple weeks and talked to him before the first of the year revising the landscaping,and we did come to an agreement this afternoon and 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 Vitosh Reporting Service 815.993.2832 cms.vitosh@gmail.com PZC -Public Hearings -January 8,2020 13 we've passed out the drawing,and I believe Jason has it at your seats,where there would be a solid row of I believe they called them winterberry trees,it's kind of in-b etween a tree and a shrub,and that would virtually be a solid row outside the fence on the west side. They would put some oaks intermittent in there,and also we added this afternoon in working with Calvin from Renaissance Evergreens as well,and he said look,with those changes,we don't have an objection,so those were the two things we're asking you to recommend to the City Council to change,and we would appreciate positive recommendation to the City Council of in effect approving the new old special use with those two modifications. CHAIRMAN OLSON:All right.Is there anyone who wishes to speak in favor of the proposed request? JIM SMILEY, having been first duly sworn,testified from the podium as follows: MR.SMILEY:Man.My name is Jim Smiley.I live at 302 Park Street,Yorkville, 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 Vitosh Reporting Service 815.993.2832 cms.vitosh@gmail.com PZC -Public Hearings -January 8,2020 14 Illinois.I represent Kendall County,and we are in favor of the proposed changes. CHAIRMAN OLSON:Thank you.Is there anyone who wishes to speak in opposition to the request? MS.SNYDER:Just a question? CHAIRMAN OLSON:Sure. MARY SNYDER, having been first duly sworn,testified from the podium as follows: MS.SNYDER:Good evening.My name is Mary Snyder.I am a resident at Blackberry Woods subdivision. I guess my concern has gone from vinyl to wood,what is it --How are we going to be assured that that's going to be maintained, and I guess second,do you have a picture then of where these trees are going to be or these shrubs?If we could see that for reassurance. CHAIRMAN OLSON:So there is two questions;the first is the --how do we maintain --how do we ensure that the wood fence is properly kept up. MS.SNYDER:Yes. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 Vitosh Reporting Service 815.993.2832 cms.vitosh@gmail.com PZC -Public Hearings -January 8,2020 15 CHAIRMAN OLSON:That is my same concern.Would you please explain? MS.NOBLE:The petitioner can explain. MR.KRAMER:Do you want to get totally done? MS.SNYDER:Those --I 'm done. CHAIRMAN OLSON:No,go ahead,please. MR.KRAMER:I don't want to interrupt. Us attorneys can be bad. Dan Kramer,again,for the petitioner.With respect to maintenance,when the old special use ordinance was passed,the petitioner and the county were both charged with maintenance of the vinyl,and they will be charged with maintaining the wood throughout the life of it as well. In the staff report,Jason was very thorough and said staff would support the modification to wood with a must --not may -- maintain the fence,so again,both petitioners are on the hook for that,and that language will be the ordinance,Mr.Chairman. As to the landscaping,there is no change from the original plan on the south,east, 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 Vitosh Reporting Service 815.993.2832 cms.vitosh@gmail.com PZC -Public Hearings -January 8,2020 16 or north,the only change is on the west. CHAIRMAN OLSON:Do you happen to remember what the spacing is?It says 50 in that space,but I didn't take what the line is. MR.KRAMER:I honestly don't on the south,but my understanding is when the staff does the new ordinance,they would incorporate all the old exhibits into the new one,with only adding this modification on the west. MR.WILLIAMS:And then would the petitioner be responsible for the landscaping as well? MR.KRAMER:Absolutely. MR.WILLIAMS:Okay,that's fine. CHAIRMAN OLSON:If something dies,they have to go out and replace it. MR.WILLIAMS:That's what I 'm worried about,because it looks like they're getting planted a little bit close. CHAIRMAN OLSON:Yeah. MR.KRAMER:And the county,again,with GRNE being the operator and installing,they have a very detailed contract with G R N E of what the county's responsibilities are and GRNE,and I 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 Vitosh Reporting Service 815.993.2832 cms.vitosh@gmail.com PZC -Public Hearings -January 8,2020 17 believe --and Krysti or Jason could pipe up on this better than I --the county actually has a bond requirement of the petitioner in their agreement.I can't remember if you did in yours or not,Krysti. MS.NOBLE:We didn't want to double bond them,so --but as part of the de-commissioning,they do have a bond. MR.KRAMER:Yeah,and I remember the discussion about not doubling up,but I believe the county agreed it would be part of your exhibit in your ordinance here. MR.WILLIAMS:Thank you. MR.KRAMER:Thank you.And if the lady who just testified gives me an email,I can forward to her the original landscape plan that would be adjacent to Blackberry Woods,so she can see that in color. CHAIRMAN OLSON:Thank you. MS.SNYDER:Okay.I will do that. MS.BRAKAUSKAS:So does anybody have a plan to look at,like the entire solar panel? MS.NOBLE:We do.It's on our website, so if you go to Yorkville.IL.US,you can do a 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 Vitosh Reporting Service 815.993.2832 cms.vitosh@gmail.com PZC -Public Hearings -January 8,2020 18 search for GRNE or you can just go to the Community Development page.All the packet materials that the Commissioners see tonight have been posted,and they have been posted for about a week now. CHAIRMAN OLSON:There's both 2 -D drawings,where you're looking at it from overhead,and they also have 3 -D renderings, showing what the landscape will look like mature in relation to the fence,in relation to the solar farm.It's a pretty --it's a pretty darn good drawing when you look at it. MS.BRAKAUSKAS:So if your house backs up to that nursery that's there now,is there going to be fencing all the way around it? MS.NOBLE:Yes. CHAIRMAN OLSON:Yes.All four sides of that solar farm will have -- MS.BRAKAUSKAS:And they are proposing to make fencing all the way around -- CHAIRMAN OLSON:Yes,ma'am. MS.BRAKAUSKAS:--instead of vinyl? CHAIRMAN OLSON:Yes,ma'am. MS.BRAKAUSKAS:And what does that do 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 Vitosh Reporting Service 815.993.2832 cms.vitosh@gmail.com PZC -Public Hearings -January 8,2020 19 as far as noise reduction? CHAIRMAN OLSON:Well,the noise versus the vinyl and the wood shouldn't cause any difference because they are both noise abatement, right?Having that in place would stop noise. The farm itself,if I remember from the last presentation,the motors,the small motors on the units,are the only things that actually generate sound. There is a central unit or something that's in the center of the farm? MR.KRAMER:I can have Eric testify to that. CHAIRMAN OLSON:Yeah,would you mind? MR.KRAMER:Eric,if you could step up about the noise question. MS.BRAKAUSKAS:Sorry,I am playing catch-up here. CHAIRMAN OLSON:No. MS.BRAKAUSKAS:We moved in after-the-fact and we didn't know this is going on. CHAIRMAN OLSON:We are happy when people ask questions,so... 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 Vitosh Reporting Service 815.993.2832 cms.vitosh@gmail.com PZC -Public Hearings -January 8,2020 20 ERIC PETERMAN, having been first duly sworn,testified from the podium as follows: MR.PETERMAN:Eric Peterman,GRNE Solar.I live at 166 South Bothwell Street in Palatine,Illinois. Yeah,it was discussed the last time,but just to bring everybody up to speed -- thank you for the questions,by the way --noise relative to the location of where the homes are is essentially going to be non-existent because of the distance. The only thing that really creates any sort of noise are the motors that turn the racking system and those are all located at the center of the array that I believe are three to 400 feet distance from the nearest backyard,so there wouldn't be --the fence change from the vinyl to the wood wouldn't really do much,as the chairman said,but the noise wouldn't be able to be heard from the residences anyway. CHAIRMAN OLSON:It was brought up when we first spoke about it.I wouldn 't want something that's making noise every hour on the 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 Vitosh Reporting Service 815.993.2832 cms.vitosh@gmail.com PZC -Public Hearings -January 8,2020 21 hour in my backyard either,but it's a sufficient distance away that you won't be able to hear it. MR.WILLIAMS:I believe from the packet it said the decimal limit is about as much as a fridge running -- MS.NOBLE:Yes. MR.WILLIAMS:--so if you imagine a fridge running in your kitchen -- CHAIRMAN OLSON:At 400-foot. MR.WILLIAMS:--and you're 400-foot away from it,can you hear it?Not really. So -- MS.NOBLE:And for the record,I 'm sorry,can we have your name? CHAIRMAN OLSON:Yeah,I 'm sorry. MS.BRAKAUSKAS:Sorry.My name is Beth Brakauskas.I live 967 North Carly Circle. MS.NOBLE:Thank you. CHAIRMAN OLSON:Thank you. MR.ENGBERG:I want to add really quick,online,if you go and look all that up, all of the previous materials from the last time we did this a year ago are attached to that 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 Vitosh Reporting Service 815.993.2832 cms.vitosh@gmail.com PZC -Public Hearings -January 8,2020 22 packet as well,so you can actually go back and read the memos,and they had specific measurements on how far away the solar panels will be from the back houses and all that information is there as well. CHAIRMAN OLSON:So the way this works is,if we were to approve this modification to the special use,it then goes to the City Council for approval,so there is time to review the materials and talk to your alderman or go to the City Council meeting. MS.BRAKAUSKAS:From an aesthetic perspective,I would rather see a vinyl fence than wood because after about six years,wood rots and falls apart very quickly. CHAIRMAN OLSON:Is there anyone else who wishes to speak in opposition to the request or ask questions?Yes,sir. MR.CHILDRESS:Not in opposition. CHAIRMAN OLSON:Sure,go ahead. CHRIS CHILDRESS, having been first duly sworn,testified from the podium as follows: MR.CHILDRESS:Chris Childress,I work 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 Vitosh Reporting Service 815.993.2832 cms.vitosh@gmail.com PZC -Public Hearings -January 8,2020 23 with Kendall County,and I just want to make it clear on this landscaping thing,it really was kind of an a -ha moment. There's about $150,000 in additional costs which are going to be borne by the taxpayer,so we're trying to go back and figure out how we can save the taxpayer those dollars, and that's just simply from the additional landscaping on the west side,not this changing on the south side,and going from vinyl to wood, and I went out --you know,not that I don't trust GRNE,but I went out and got the numbers myself,and it's about 150,000 more dollars,so we kind of had an a -ha moment here. We've going to cut down trees out of a 7 .4 -acre lot and then bring in new trees and put them on the west side when there are trees in that lot that can be reused,so we are repurposing some of the trees on that west side to,you know,create again,the barrier against the fence,number one. Number two,the residents won't see anything actually inside because it's opaque and they won't see the field at all in operation,so 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 Vitosh Reporting Service 815.993.2832 cms.vitosh@gmail.com PZC -Public Hearings -January 8,2020 24 that's all I have. CHAIRMAN OLSON:Thank you.All right. Any other questions from Commissioners? (No response.) CHAIRMAN OLSON:All right.Because this is a special use,would the petitioner like to have your responses entered in? MR.KRAMER:I think,without belaboring it,if somebody has specific questions,I 'm happy to answer,but... CHAIRMAN OLSON:Thank you.Is the petitioner for PZC 2019-30,CalAtlantic Group, present and prepared to make a presentation? MR.MURPHY:Yes. RICK MURPHY, having been first duly sworn,testified from the podium as follows: MR.MURPHY:Good evening.My name is Rick Murphy from Lennar Homes,1141 East Main Street,East Dundee,Illinois. I want to thank the Plan Commission and City Council and staff for past and present courtesies.We appreciate the ability to discuss our case here. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 Vitosh Reporting Service 815.993.2832 cms.vitosh@gmail.com PZC -Public Hearings -January 8,2020 25 We are here for two matters essentially.As you maybe recall,we are the purchaser of 3 66 home sites at Raintree Village, which was basically on the shelf for at least 10 years. It's a mix of single family,duplex, and townhome sites developed in a different day and time,and what we found,as you know,we're adapting to the site,the grading conditions,the lot widths and so forth,and so let's start with our first request,is basically replatting the townhome sites,and it's more of a function of the form of ownership going to fee simple. We didn't change any geometries within the plat,it was purely how to handle it in a condo-style ownership as exceptions to the blanket easements,so you have very large lots within the block and they call it exceptions to blanket easement where they place the townhomes. What's really changed in the interim since those days,we generally do fee simple, which is actually a lot --you create a lot in that same exact area,the building goes in there, and the ownership is divided by the surveyor,so 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 Vitosh Reporting Service 815.993.2832 cms.vitosh@gmail.com PZC -Public Hearings -January 8,2020 26 none of the separation requirements,we're not asking for any changes in that,we're not changing position in any of those envelopes,so we view this as basically almost administrative, but I know since you are technically creating a lot in there,that's why we're here,so that's number one. Number two is side yard setback requirements in Unit 4 .Now,I don't know if you've seen your site plan,but you will notice that duplex home sites that we have acquired,I think it was --Krysti,remind me on the count here,it's a total of oh,boy,58 I think. MS.NOBLE:Well,total,but you acquired --you are asking for 34. MR.MURPHY:Right,34.And out of the 34,we are not asking for variances across the whole site,we have decided to stay out of Unit 3 where the home sites are already in existence,so we're not asking any relief there,and with those existing home sites,you almost have to on a duplex build a two story or one story together or two two-stories just by virtue of the fact that a ranch home does take a --it does have a wider 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 Vitosh Reporting Service 815.993.2832 cms.vitosh@gmail.com PZC -Public Hearings -January 8,2020 27 footprint and so you are constrained there,so our proposed building and mix in there,actually in both parts,Units 3 and 4 ,do consist of some one or two-story type buildings both in one building.The other option you can have is two two-story units. CHAIRMAN OLSON:This setback is just for the townhomes,correct? MR.MURPHY:No,it's actually for the duplexes -- MS.NOBLE:Duplexes,17 lots. MR.MURPHY:--a very specific set of lots in Unit 4 where there is basically no neighbors --no neighboring duplex units except for our own lots that would be for sale,so we're not asking for it across the board,and I don't know if you see your Exhibit D out of your proposal,and it looks like this. If you look at the --at the south area,these are all vacant lots.In fact,the city has the neighborhood blocked off with barrier,okay,so these are the lots.I think we're talking about 19 -- MS.NOBLE:17. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 Vitosh Reporting Service 815.993.2832 cms.vitosh@gmail.com PZC -Public Hearings -January 8,2020 28 MR.MURPHY:--lots,38 homes,38 individual units.We cannot --we could not really fit a side-by-side ranch product. And the other issue --thing I want to remind everybody,which you probably don't know,from an engineering standpoint,these are --these are look-out and walk-out units, which means we have to build basements,so there is even more square footage in the basements,so they will be fairly expensive to build,but we are just trying to adapt to the market. CHAIRMAN OLSON:The market is ranches. The market is ranches. MR.MURPHY:Well,we definitely see a segment that would like to buy this product.So that's kind of where we're at with that,so,you know,I 'm here for any more questions if you think I have,you know,rushed through this or missed anything. MS.NOBLE:For clarification purposes, the public hearing portion is only for the PUD amendment;the final plat will be discussed later.It does not require a public hearing process. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 Vitosh Reporting Service 815.993.2832 cms.vitosh@gmail.com PZC -Public Hearings -January 8,2020 29 CHAIRMAN OLSON:So just for the setbacks? MS.NOBLE:Just for the setbacks,yes. CHAIRMAN OLSON:First,are there any -- is there anyone in the public who wishes to speak in favor of the request? (No response.) CHAIRMAN OLSON:Is there anyone present who wishes to speak in opposition to the request? (No response.) CHAIRMAN OLSON:Questions? (No response.) CHAIRMAN OLSON:My questions are how many single family homes are currently in Unit 4 built,complete? MR.MURPHY:There are no single family homes in Unit 4 .Unit 4 is strictly a mix of townhome and duplex units. Five townhome buildings are already built and we will complete the rest of them,so if you look at Unit 4 ,we have 1 0 8 total units remaining to be built,and do the math here -- well,I think we did that,38 individual units for the duplex,so the neighborhoods are kind of 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 Vitosh Reporting Service 815.993.2832 cms.vitosh@gmail.com PZC -Public Hearings -January 8,2020 30 separated,you know.It's not single family -- Single family is restricted to Units 1 through -- 1 ,2 ,3 ,5 and 6 .I don't know even if it's Unit 3 .Actually I think there are.Sorry. CHAIRMAN OLSON:No,okay.Thank you. Any questions from you? (No response.) CHAIRMAN OLSON:Thank you.Is the petitioner for PZC 2019-3 1 Continental Electric, representing Wrigley Manufacturing,present? BRIAN WERNER, having been first duly sworn,testified from the podium as follows: MR.WERNER:Brian Werner,Continental Electric.I am here for acceptance of a special use for wind turbine and solar array to power the sign for the front of the Wrigley Manufacturing building on Route 47. Basically a little history of it is the building was built in 1992 and a couple years ago the line that is trenched out to the sign failed and it struck buried cable. In discussions with Wrigley we talked about retrenching a new line out there, 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 Vitosh Reporting Service 815.993.2832 cms.vitosh@gmail.com PZC -Public Hearings -January 8,2020 31 but with Wrigley's and Mars'push to have more of a --they are continually trying to be --have a more green process,save on water,save on electricity,save on energy making the --in making their products,we decided to propose putting in the wind turbine and solar array out there to power the sign.Nobody ever --it never got any traction. The family,the Mars family,came for a visit in August,and the last time they were here was 2014,they came to me at the end of June and said can you make this happen,and it was all we could do to get it done,and we overlooked the fact it needed a special use permit,so we're going through the process now and we would like to be granted permission to leave it in place. CHAIRMAN OLSON:Was a permit applied for at all? MS.NOBLE:When they went through the process now,but not initially,no. MR.WERNER:Not prior to when we did it. CHAIRMAN OLSON:Gotcha. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 Vitosh Reporting Service 815.993.2832 cms.vitosh@gmail.com PZC -Public Hearings -January 8,2020 32 MR.ENGBERG:They had a building permit for the sign. CHAIRMAN OLSON:Okay,but not for the --back in --The original sign or the modification of the sign? MR.WERNER:No,put a new sign up -- MR.ENGBERG:They put a new sign up. MR.WERNER:--and we didn't realize it required it for the wind turbine on the solar array. CHAIRMAN OLSON:I gotcha.All right. Is there anyone present who wishes to speak in favor of the request? JOHN KEHOE, having been first duly sworn,testified from the podium as follows: MR.KEHOE:Hi.My name is John Kehoe, I am a project engineer for Mars Wrigley,so I am definitely in favor of it. Like Brian said,we were tasked with a lay project.As you guys --some of you might know,Mars is still privately owned by the Mars family,they come out here not that often,so we wanted to give them something special to look at. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 Vitosh Reporting Service 815.993.2832 cms.vitosh@gmail.com PZC -Public Hearings -January 8,2020 33 There are graphics on the turbine that were brought up at the last meeting;those are not put on there for any type of advertising, that was simply something we wanted to do for our associates and also people driving by,that this is what's made here. There is four graphics that are on there,four products,and as people drive by without it,you have no idea what's made there. Before the sign really,people didn't even know what the building was and now they can see that Skittles,Juicy Fruit,all those are made there.Thank you. CHAIRMAN OLSON:Is there anyone present who wishes to speak in opposition to the request? (No response.) CHAIRMAN OLSON:Seeing as there are none,is there any questions from the commissioners? MR.HYETT:Is this sign up?Is the turbine up now? CHAIRMAN OLSON:Yeah. MR.HYETT:I thought I drove up a few 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 Vitosh Reporting Service 815.993.2832 cms.vitosh@gmail.com PZC -Public Hearings -January 8,2020 34 weeks later and it was not there. MR.WERNER:We actually took it down. We were doing some rework on the actual generator itself. MR.HYETT:I even noticed it,where is it. MR.WERNER:We took it down. MS.BRAKAUSKAS:I noticed it.I drive by it all the time.I think it's kind of nice. CHAIRMAN OLSON:Because this is a special use,would the petitioner like to have your responses to the standards entered into the public record?G enerally we put them in.Yes. MR.WERNER:All right. CHAIRMAN OLSON:All right.Since all public testimony regarding these petitions has been taken tonight,may I have a motion to close the taking of testimony and this public hearing? MR.VINYARD:So moved. MR.WILLIAMS:Second. CHAIRMAN OLSON:Roll call vote on the motion,please. MS.YOUNG:Millen. MR.MILLEN:Yes. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 Vitosh Reporting Service 815.993.2832 cms.vitosh@gmail.com PZC -Public Hearings -January 8,2020 35 MS.YOUNG:Olson.

conflicted with the 2016 Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use designations. Staff is recommending amending the plan to change the future land uses of these projects to their now existing land use. It is important to make these changes to ensure the plan is consistent with the current built environment and is not interpreted incorrectly within the planning horizon of the document. This memorandum will briefly discuss the changes being proposed as outlined in the following table: Project Current Comp Plan Future Land Use Designation Proposed Comprehensive Future Land Use Designation PZC 2017-01 Cedarhurst Living Suburban Neighborhood Commercial Office (CO) PZC 2017-07 Casey’s General Store Mid-Density Residential Destination Commercial (DC) PZC 2017-13 Coffman Carpets Mid-Density Residential Destination Commercial (DC) PZC 2018-18 Heartland Business Mid-Density Residential Commercial Office (CO) PZC 2019-03 Hively (Windmill Farms) Estate/Conservation Residential Destination Commercial (DC) Additionally, due to development on the southeast side of the City, there will be an additional potential roadway added to th e map. It is an extension of Minkler Road which would line up on the north side of the Ashley Road and Route 126 intersection. PZC 2017-01 Cedarhurst Living Current Future Land Use: Suburban Neighborhood Proposed Future Land Use: Commercial Office Summary: An application was submitted requesting authorization of an amendment to the existing Cannonball Trails Planned Unit Development (PUD) and Annexation Agreement Amendment for the purpose of constructing a new two- story assisted living with memory care facility at the northeast corner of US 34 and Cannonball Trails. Amendment: The “Suburban Neighborhood” designation is meant to provide single family detached housing options in traditional subdivision layouts. The “Commercial Office” designation is meant to provide commercial, office, and retail space along the City’s main commercial corridors including Route 47 and Route 34. Changing this property to “Commercial Office” is a much more accurate representation of the now operational facility. Memorandum To: Planning and Zoning Commission From: Jason Engberg, Senior Planner CC: Bart Olson, City Administrator Krysti J. Barksdale-Noble, Community Development Director Date: February 5, 2019 Subject: Comprehensive Plan Update – Future Land Use Amendments 2 PZC 2017-07 Casey’s General Store Current Future Land Use: Mid-Density Residential Proposed Future Land Use: Destination Commercial Summary: An application was submitted requesting annexation, rezoning, special use, and variance authorization to construct a gasoline station with accessory convenience store southwest of the MchHugh Road and Route 34 intersection. The property original contained a small apartment complex and single gamily detached home. Amendment: The “Mid-Density Residential” designation is meant to provide higher density residential developments near commercial areas which include a variety of housing options. The “Destination Commercial” designation is meant to provide large format and outlot development for commercial business along Yorkville’s main commercial corridors. The original designation reflected the existing apartments on site. The “Destination Commercial” land use is better suited to the Casey’s General Store. PZC 2017-13 Coffman Carpets Current Future Land Use: Mid-Density Residential Proposed Future Land Use: Destination Commercial Summary: An application was submitted requesting annexation pursuant to an annexation agreement and rezoning classification for the existing carpet retail store. The property is located south of U.S. Route 34 and west of McHugh Road. Amendment: The “Mid-Density Residential” designation is meant to provide higher density residential developments near commercial areas which include a variety of housing options. The “Destination Commercial” designation is meant to provide large format and outlot development for commercial business along Yorkville’s main commercial corridors. The “Destination Commercial” land use is better suited for the existing carpet store. 3 PZC 2018-18 Heartland Business Center Current Future Land Use: Mid-Density Residential Proposed Future Land Use: Commercial Office Summary: An application was submitted requesting authorization of an amendment to the existing Heartland Subdivision Planned Unit Development (PUD) and Annexation Agreement Amendment for the purpose of reducing a side yard setback to allow for a two-story office building. The property is located at the southwest corner of McHugh Road and Route 34. Amendment: The “Mid-Density Residential” designation is meant to provide higher density residential developments near commercial areas which include a variety of housing options. The “Commercial Office” designation is meant to provide commercial, office, and retail space along the City’s main commercial corridors including Route 47 and Route 34. While there is currently nothing built on the property, it was approved for an office use on site and therefore a change in future land use is appropriate. PZC 2019-03 Hively (Windmill Farms) Current Future Land Use: Estate/Conservation Residential Proposed Future Land Use: Destination Commercial Summary: An application was submitted requesting rezoning of three parcels within the Windmill Farms Planned Unit Development which approved certain land uses consistent with those found in the R-4 General Multi-Family Residence District and B-3 General Business zoning districts. The requested new zoning was be B-3 General Business District on two (2) parcels and A-1 Agricultural District on one (1) parcel. The properties which require a change in designation are the B-3 properties located at the southeast and southwest corner of Route 126 and Route 71. While not yet constructed, the properties were rezoned to accommodate a landscaping retail business. Amendment: The “Estate/Conservation Residential” designation is meant to provide flexibility for residential design that can accommodate low-density single-family housing. The “Destination Commercial” designation is meant to provide large format and outlot development for commercial business along Yorkville’s main commercial corridors. Now that the properties are zoned B-3 General Business, it is appropriate to amend the designation with the plan as it will likely be used for commercial uses in the future. 4 Ashley Road Extension Summary: The Raintree Village and Prestwick (Ashley Pointe) residential developments have both resumed construction in the past 2 years. Along with the single-family attached and detached housing in both subdivisions, Prestwick has also constructed a new private high school. Along with these developments, the intersection at Route 126 (Schoolhouse Road) and Ashley Road must be improved by the end of 2021. With the growth in this region and the improved intersection being complete before the end horizon of this plan, the potential connection and realignment of Minkler Road to the north has been added to the future land use map. Staff Comments The Comprehensive Plan land use map is a guide to future development and zoning decisions, but it is also meant to be adjusted when circumstances warrant a change in planning direction in a given area of the City. The changes to these five areas have already been decided and it is appropriate to change their land use designation. Additionally, the Ashley Road extension is already designated within the document and staff is recommending it be shown on the future land use map due to recent development in the area. Proposed Motion: In consideration of testimony presented during a Public Hearing on February 12, 2020 and discussions conducted at that meeting, the Planning and Zoning Commission recommends approval to t he City Council of a request to amend the United City of Yorkville’s 2016 Comprehensive Plan Update future land use for the five identified land use changes and the single potential road extension as presented in a staff memorandum dated February 5, 2020 and further subject to {insert any additional conditions of the Planning and Zoning Commission}… Attachments 1. New Comprehensive Plan pages 82 SECTION 4 - COMMUNITY VISION AND LAND USE STRATEGY THE YORKVILLE PLAN • CONNECTING OUR PAST TO THE FUTURE Figure 4.1 - Future Land Uses North of the Fox River Figure 4.1: Future Land Uses North of the Fox River LAND USE CHANGES* The Land Use Strategy and Future Land Use Map presented above describes the distribution of general land use categories (Residential, Commercial, industrial, Open Space and Parks, and so on) that will set the framework for achieving the goals of the Comprehensive Plan. It is not a zoning map but should set the stage for future changes and modifications to the Yorkville Zoning Ordinance. The Land Use Strategy seeks to “re-position” Yorkville’s future land use pattern given current development conditions in Yorkville since the 2008 economic downturn and the unlikelihood that the Prairie Parkway will be constructed within this Plan’s time horizon. Several changes in land use classifications are proposed from those included in the 2008 Comprehensive Plan. Changes in the land use categories are summarized below: RESIDENTIAL A Mid-Density Residential land use zone is proposed in order to encourage new multi-family housing types in Yorkville; new housing types could diversify housing opportunities and provide housing at different price points that what is currently offered in Yorkville’s housing market. The Rural Neighborhood land use classification in the 2008 Comprehensive Plan is eliminated given that such residential development is unlikely to occur in the southeastern portions of the Yorkville planning area where there are significant infrastructure and market constraints. The primary infrastructure constraint is the need to construct a lift station along a ridge line, generally located south of Illinois Route 71. In its place, an Estate/Conservation Residential land use category has been created to accommodate large-lot residential development in areas where infrastructure exists and smaller-lot single family residential subdivisions are less likely to be supported by market demand. Conservation subdivisions should also be encouraged in order to preserve significant environmental and topographical features, provide alternative housing types, and provide opportunities to expand Yorkville’s open space network. A Metra Station TOD zone is also included to plan accordingly for future development even if the Metra Station is years away from construction. COMMERCIAL Several new commercial land use categories are suggested in this Comprehensive Plan. A Downtown Mixed-Use Core zone is intended to focus revitalization and redevelopment efforts in Yorkville’s traditional downtown; new mixed-use development is envisioned on various opportunity sites that expand the Downtown’s footprint further to the east on Van Emmon Street with potential residential and commercial development. The need to address particular development design and land use issues within the Downtown necessitates the need for a Downtown-specific land use classification. The general Commercial land use classification in the 2008 Plan is now designated Destination Commercial to recognize that a high percentage of commercial land in Yorkville accommodates large format and chain store formats, usually located along major transportation thoroughfares. Destination Commercial uses have their own particular physical design and development issues and should be distinguished from commercial uses located in the Downtown and in neighborhood retail areas. A Commercial Office land use category has been created to accommodate small-scaled office uses in single developments or as part of an office park setting; INSTITUTIONAL PARKS AND OPEN SPACE COMMERCIAL OFFICE GENERAL INDUSTRIAL Legend - Future Land Use Map FUTURE ROADWAY ESTATE/CONSERVATION RESIDENTIAL SUBURBAN NEIGHBORHOODS AGRICULTURAL ZONE METRA STATION TRANSIT-ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT DOWNTOWN MIXED-USE CORE TRADITIONAL NEIGHBORHOOD RESIDENTIAL MID-DENSITY RESIDENTIAL DESTINATION COMMERCIAL NEIGHBORHOOD RETAIL RIVERS / STREAMS * Please see page 186 and 187 for an addendum to the Future Land Use Map in Figures 4.1 and 4.2.

The property is located south of U.S. Route 34 and west of McHugh Road. The property was originally designated as “Mid-Density Residential” which is meant to provide higher density residential developments near commercial areas which include a variety of housing options.

The property is located at the southwest corner of McHugh Road and Route 34. The property was originally designated as “Mid-Density Residential” which is meant to provide higher density residential developments near commercial areas which include a variety of housing options. The “Commercial Office” designation is meant to provide commercial, office, and retail space along the City’s main commercial corridors including Route 47 and Route 34. The “Commercial Office” land use now reflects what has been approved. SECTION 9 - STEWARDSHIP AND IMPLEMENTATION 187THE YORKVILLE PLAN • CONNECTING OUR PAST TO THE FUTURE CEDARHURST LIVING HIVELY (WINDMILL FARMS) New Future Land Use Designation: Commercial Office Summary: An application was approved requesting authorization of an amendment to the existing Cannonball Trails Planned Unit Development (PUD) and Annexation Agreement Amendment for the purpose of constructing a new two-story assisted living with memory care facility at the northeast corner of US 34 and Cannonball Trails. The property was originally designated as “Suburban Neighborhood” which is meant to provide single family detached housing options in traditional subdivision layouts. The “Commercial Office” designation is meant to provide commercial, office, and retail space along the City’s main commercial corridors including Route 47 and Route 34. The “Commercial Office” land use now reflects what has been approved. New Future Land Use Designation: Destination Commercial Summary: An application was approved requesting rezoning of three parcels within the Windmill Farms Planned Unit Development which approved certain land uses consistent with those found in the R-4 General Multi-Family Residence District and B-3 General Business zoning districts. The requested new zoning was be B-3 General Business District on two (2) parcels and A-1 Agricultural District on one (1) parcel. The properties which require a change in designation are the B-3 properties located at the southeast and southwest corner of Route 126 and Route 71. While not yet constructed, the properties were rezoned to accommodate a landscaping retail business. The property was originally designated as “Estate/ Conservation Residential” which is meant to provide flexibility for residential design that can accommodate low-density single-family housing. The “Destination Commercial” designation is meant to provide large format and outlot development for commercial business along Yorkville’s main commercial corridors. Now that the properties are zoned B-3 General Business, it is appropriate to amend the designation with the plan as it will likely be used for commercial uses in the future. ELDAMAIN ROAD CORRIDOR New Future Land Use Designation: General Industrial Summary: In 2019, the Illinois Department of Transportation announced that $45 million in funds for the construction of the Eldamain Road bridge over the Fox River was allocated in their multiyear plan. The city was contacted by Kendall County asking us to revisit the comprehensive plan’s future land use designation for the Eldamain Road corridor to align with the Kendall County Land Resource Management Plan. Yorkville’s future land use designation for this area is “Estate/Conservation Residential” which is intended to provide flexibility for residential design of large lot single-family homes or clustering of home with most of the development dedicated for conservation or green space area. However, Kendall County’s Land Resource Management Plan (LRMP) identifies this area’s future land use as “Mixed Use Business.”. The Mixed-Use Business category would include offices, warehouses, highway-oriented commercial businesses and light industrial. To better align the potential future land uses in this region, the “General Industrial” is more appropriate given the new funding for infrastructure in the area. SECTION 9 - STEWARDSHIP AND IMPLEMENTATION 188 THE YORKVILLE PLAN • CONNECTING OUR PAST TO THE FUTURE FUTURE LAND USE - MAP ADDENDUMS ASHLEY ROAD New Future Land Use Designation: N/A Summary: The Raintree Village and Prestwick residential developments have both resumed construction after the adoption of the comprehensive plan. Along with the single-family attached and detached housing in both subdivisions, Prestwick has constructed a new private high school. Along with these developments, the intersection at Route 126 (Schoolhouse Road) and Ashley Road must be improved by the end of 2021. With the growth in this region and the improved intersection being complete before the end horizon of this plan, the potential connection and realignment of Minkler Road to the north has been added to the future land use map. 1 Summary Discussion and consideration of a potential amendment to the future land use designation in the Comprehensive Plan Update 2016 for parcels located along the Eldamain Corridor from “Estate/Conservation Residential” to “General Industrial”. This area is described as generally located on the east side of Eldamain Road, between the Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) railroad north terminating at Galena Road. Background/Purpose As the Planning and Zoning Commission will recall, in 2016 the City adopted its Comprehensive Plan after two (2) years of research and coordination with the various city departments, the public and outside agencies. The final document thoroughly narrated Yorkville’s current conditions (as of 2016) in “Part One: Setting the Stage” and meticulously laid out a plan for future development over the next 10 years in “Part Two: Comprehensive Plan”. The plan included an examination of land use strategies, principles to guide future land use, analysis of community systems and infrastructure, as well as a study of major corridors such as Eldamain Road. As the recipient of the Illinois Chapter of the American Planning Association’s Daniel Burnham Award for Outstanding Comprehensive Plan in September 2017, it was considered by staff and the elected officials to be well received as the City’s guiding document for land use development. However, in March 2017, the City was approached by Kendall County’s Planning Commission to consider revising the future land use designation of parcels along Eldamain Road to be consistent with the Kendall County Land Resource Management Plan, originally adopted in 1994 and last revised in 2011, which identities this area as “Mixed Use Business”. The “Mixed Use Business” future land use category is consistent with the County’s Office and Research Park zoning district as well as their manufacturing districts. Additionally, as part of that request, Kendall County also provided a list of other areas where the City’s Comprehensive Plan Update 2016 was incongruent with the county’s plan which staff summarized in a memo to the Council and Planning and Zoning Commission (see attached). At that time, it was the direction of both the City Council and Planning and Zoning Commission to not take any formal action to amend the plan. Recently, after the announcement by the Illinois Department of Transportation that $45 million in funds for the construction of the Eldamain Road bridge over the Fox River was allocated in their multi- year plan, the city was contacted by Kendall County once again asking us to revisit our comprehensive plan’s future land use designation for the Eldamain Road corridor to align with the Kendall County Land Resource Management Plan (see attached). Based upon this request, sought further direction from the Economic Development Committee (EDC) at their January 7th meeting of a potential amendment to the current future land use designation from “Estate/Conservation Residential” to “General Industrial” or a similar land use along Eldamain Road which is compatible with the county’s plan. Memorandum To: Planning and Zoning Commission From: Krysti J. Barksdale-Noble, Community Development Director CC: Bart Olson, City Administrator Jason Engberg, Senior Planner Date: February 4, 2020 Subject: Comprehensive Plan Update - Eldamain Road Corridor Yorkville/Kendall County Future Land Use Plan Differences 2 It was the direction of the EDC to conduct a public hearing before the Planning and Zoning Commission to amend the Comprehensive Plan’s future land use designation from “Estate/Conservation Residential” to “General Industrial” for the unincorporated areas along the east side of Eldamain Road to Galena Road. Future Land Use/Zoning Analysis The City’s Comprehensive Plan Update identified approximately 1,050 acres of land zoned for manufacturing use within our corporate boundary. Nearly 600 acres (or 56%) of that land that remain undeveloped. This includes the incorporated parcels along the Eldamain Road corridor. The area mostly at focus as part of this discussion is approximately 470 acres of unincorporated land consisting of fifteen (15) parcels. Yorkville’s future land use designation for this area is “Estate/Conservation Residential” which is intended to provide flexibility for residential design of large lot single-family homes or clustering of home with most of the development dedicated for conservation or green space area. This designation was a suitable transition land use between agricultural zones and traditional residential neighborhoods or places with identifiable scenic views, tree masses and environmental features. However, Kendall County’s Land Resource Management Plan (LRMP) identifies this area’s future land use as “Mixed Use Business”, in the June 2008 update. According to the LRMP, the Mixed- Use Business category would include offices, warehouses, highway-oriented commercial businesses and light industrial as such uses are benefitted from easy accessibility to major transportation roadways such as the proposed Prairie Parkway. The LRMP states that the plan depicts a pattern of land uses that would accommodate growth and development in Fox and Kendall Township over the next 15-20 years based upon an analysis of existing land uses conducted in 2004; building permit and population projections from data gathered between 1990-2006; traffic estimates from 1994-2006; and public input received at township workshops held in 2004. Below are illustrations of the future land use maps from the Yorkville Comprehensive Plan (left) and Kendall County’s LRMP (right). 3 While most of the land in the subject area is currently zoned and used for agricultural and residential purposes in Kendall County, there is an eight (8) acre parcel that was rezoned from A- 1 Agricultural District to M-1 Limited Manufacturing by Kendall County in 2017 (after the adoption of Yorkville’s Comprehensive Plan). This parcel is, however, being utilized for a residence with an ancillary towing and truck storage business. Additionally, there is an approximately 3.5-acre parcel zoned R-1 since 1990. Further, within this area, there are currently six (6) large lot residential homesteads. Since the adoption of the County’s Land Resource Management Plan in 1994, most of the property in the subject area has maintained its rural character over the past twenty-five (25) years. The aerial to the right depicts current conditions of the subject area with existing zoning districts. Amendment Considerations When considering amendments to the Comprehensive Plan, particularly the Future Land Use Map, it is generally recommended that a community weigh the current trend in development (market interest/conditions) and availability of public resources to support the proposed land use such as roads, utilities and police/fire protection. The most common reason to amend a Comprehensive Plan is a developer-initiated entitlement request (e.g. rezoning, special use, variance, and/or planned unit development). However, if the city does consider the request from Kendall County, the following should be discussed. Yorkville Comprehensive Plan It is noted in the Land Use Strategy of the Yorkville Comprehensive Plan Update the approach of the future land use designations was to establish a balance between land uses to ensure a stable and growing tax base and realistically address the changes experienced in the local and regional economic conditions. These conditions include the fallout from the 2008 economic downturn and the unlikelihood that the Prairie Parkway will be constructed within the Comprehensive Plan’s 10-year time horizon (2016- 2026). Additionally, the Eldamain Land Use Strategy (see Figure 8.17) sought to “re-position” Yorkville’s future industrial land use by focusing on the development of currently zoned manufacturing districts based on market data and analysis conducted in 2016 which determined the lack of needed utilities (water, sewer and gas) and direct access to a major transportation system as major hurdles for industrial development along Eldamain Road in the near future. 4 The parcels currently identified in the Comprehensive Plan Update with a future land use designation of General Industrial (GI) along Eldamain Road are the two (2) Lincoln Prairie sites and the Konicek Property. Combined, these parcels total over 400 acres of targeted future industrial development. The Lincoln Prairie south parcel recently was awarded the distinction as a Certified Site by the Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) railroad. This certification program “identifies optimal rail-served sites and conducts in-depth reviews of ten economic development criteria” to determine readiness for development.1 In addition, the city has fielded multiple inquiries and due diligence reviews by major industrial users over the past several years interested in the Lincoln Prairie south parcel, and recently Metra has identified the area immediately south of the rail line near Eldamain Road as a potential commuter rail station in the Kendall Extension Study. The goals and policies for industrial areas in Yorkville is set forth on page 107 of the Comprehensive Plan Update and provided below: 1 https://www.bnsf.com/ship-with-bnsf/rail-development/certified-sites.html 5 Kendall County LRMP The Kendall County Land Resource Management Plan’s original adoption in 1994 considered the future growth of the county over the next 15-20 years. Since its initial adoption, a series of strategic revisions were made to address the changing needs and conditions of the various townships which make up the County. The most recent amendment to the plan for the Yorkville area was completed in 2008, at the height of the historic development boom experienced by the County and soon after the earmark of funds for the Prairie Parkway corridor which would link the I-88 to the I-80 (discussed further under Transportation/Corridor Land Uses). No additional comprehensive updates to the Kendall County Land Resource Management Plan has occurred since then for the Yorkville planning area. Transportation/Corridor Land Uses As previously mentioned, the transportation land use immediately adjacent to the subject area is Eldamain Road. Eldamain Road, under Kendall County jurisdiction, is currently a secondary north-south route in Yorkville traveling between River Road to the south and north past Baseline Road, the City’s planning boundary terminus. Kendall County is in the process of reconstructing and extending Eldamain Road across the Fox River which would accommodate future growth and development in the area, particularly the currently zoned manufacturing parcels in Yorkville’s corporate boundary. Funding for the bridge connection has recently been allocated by the Illinois Department of Transportation and the county expects to complete construction by early 2023. In evaluating the impact of the future Eldamain Road bridge construction, the Yorkville Comprehensive Plan update opined that “…the land use pattern should remain compatible with the open space, natural areas and viewsheds that define the areas near and around the Fox River.” 6 The Prairie Parkway corridor, which was approved by the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) in 2007, influenced many land use plans at the time (including the 2008 Yorkville Comprehensive Plan) to encourage more intensive future commercial and industrial development in the surrounding areas. However, in early 2012 the Federal Highway Administration rescinded its approval of the alternative highway and in mid-2018 IDOT announced that is was cancelling the protections for the planned corridor altogether. Utilities/Infrastructure Systems Currently, the east side of the Eldamain Road corridor, north of the Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) railroad to Galena Road, is not serviced by any public utilities, particularly city water and sanitary sewer. With the nearest potential water connection located approximately 2,400 feet from the subject site and sanitary sewer over 1,900 feet away, the cost to extend services would require a significant investment and most likely initiated by a future developer. Additionally, this area would have to be served by the Yorkville Bristol Sanitary District (YBSD) for sanitary and wastewater treatment. YBSD is currently close to capacity and is in the process of completing a facilities plan study to address capacity concerns and future expansion. The plan is expected to be complete in early 2020, but approval of the plan by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA) make take up to one year. Further, the subject area is currently outside of the sanitary district’s future wastewater planning area. Land Use Designation Amendment Proposal Based upon the mitigating factors discussed as part of the amendment considerations such as: the land use strategy expressed in the Yorkville Comprehensive Plan update; trend of development in the subject area; date of the Kendall County LRMP; recent funding of the Eldamain Road bridge project; the elimination of the Prairie Parkway; and lack of infrastructure serving the site; consideration could be given to an alternative future land use designation of “General Industrial”. The following provides for a comparison of the “pros” and “cons” of the current land use designation of “Estate/Conservation Residential (ECR)” and the proposed “General Industrial (GI)” for the subject area along Eldamain Road: Estate/Conservation Residential (ECR) Keep the Estate/Conservation Residential (ECR) land use as is currently designated for the subject area during the 10-year time frame of the Comprehensive Plan. This designation was primarily used to replace the 2008’s Comprehensive Plan’s “Rural Neighborhood” use category and took into consideration the existing large-lot residential and agricultural uses, as well as the significant infrastructure constraints. Pros • Maintains the current future land use designation based upon recent market analysis, demographic estimates and transportation projections and consistent with current land use conditions. • Assumes the unincorporated subject area will not be utilized for new industrial development within the horizon of the Comprehensive Plan due to lack of infrastructure to support it. Even if a major industrial user is considered in the near term for this area, it is likely the parcel will annex to Yorkville than develop in Kendall County. Cons • Conflicts with Kendall County’s Land Resource Management Plan. • Potential conflicts could exist between residential and industrial uses if land in the subject area is developed as a new rural subdivision. 7 General Industrial (GI) Amend the land use designation to General Industrial (GI) which is reserved for a broad range of warehousing and manufacturing activities of minimal environmental impact. Such industries can be served by both rail and by truck transportation and are encouraged in existing industrial zones like the Eldamain Corridor intersected by the BNSF railroad line. Pros • Consistent with Kendall County’s Land Resource Management Plan and extends the current General Industrial (GI) future land use northwards from the Konicek property to Galena Road. • Pending construction of the Eldamain Road bridge project and the identification of a potential Metra commuter station near Eldamain along the BNSF rail line. Cons • Unlikely industrial use will occur in this area during the time-frame of Comprehensive Plan. • No immediate access to public utilities, loss of the Prairie Parkway corridor funding and lack of major market interest for industrial users within the subject area. • Conflicts with current Yorkville Comprehensive Plan. Staff Comments/Recommendation Although, the Yorkville Comprehensive Plan land use map is a guide to future development and zoning decisions, it is also meant to be adjusted and changed when circumstances warrant a change in planning direction in a given area of the City. Based upon the recent funding for the Eldamain Road bridge and the recent Metra Kendall Extension Study, staff recommends consideration of amending this area of the Yorkville Comprehensive Plan Update from “Estate/Conservation Residential (ECR)” to “General Industrial (GI)”. While the considerations raised by staff should be thoroughly reviewed, changing the future land use of this area on the Comprehensive Plan map has no immediate impact to the current land owners and uses or the City. Rather, it indicates to future land owners and perspective developers that the proposed new land use is desired and supported by the City should a land use proposal be submitted. Staff recommends, as part of the Planning and Zoning Commissions deliberation, the following standards for rezoning be utilized when evaluating the proposed future land use amendment: 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.

Eldamain Road Corridor Future Land Use Map (2020) 1 Background/Purpose Every year since 2011, staff has attended the annual Kendall County Regional Planning Commission (KCPC) Meeting. As part of that meeting, the County invites representatives from municipalities to share their current and future planning projects and goals. While this sharing is voluntary, staff has always participated, being that the City is the County seat, in providing a brief but compact summary of planning related matters happening in Yorkville. At the February 25, 2017 meeting, staff provided a summary of building permit activity, current projects under construction, status of current development incentive programs, planning goals and the recently adopted Comprehensive Plan Update. Following our presentation, staff was asked by members of the Kendall County Planning Commission (KCPC) about our current Comprehensive Plan land use designation along Eldamain Road and the lack of notice the individual members of the KCPC, and the County as a whole, received during the preparation and approval process. In response to the question, staff reminded the KCPC we had attended the prior two (2) annual meetings and provided updates throughout the process. We also informed the commission that the 24- month long comprehensive planning process included stake holder meetings with the County, public outreach, public hearing processes, public notices, City website updates,a separate project website and coordination with the two (2) previous Kendall County Senior Planners throughout the process. Additionally, the County’s Senior Planner position sat vacant for about a year and there was no staff counterpart for the City or the City’s consultant to contact. However, staff did speak with the County’s planning consultant Mike Hoffman of Teska, the former County Administrator Jeff Wilkins and County Highway Director Fran Klaas as part of the Comprehensive Plan update. At the conclusion of the meeting, city staff provided a copy of the adopted Yorkville Comprehensive Plan Update to the County’s Planning Commission and offered to speak with any KCPC member who had any specific concerns regarding the plan anytime via telephone, email or in-person. Staff has learned during a subsequent Kendall County Ad-Hoc Zoning Ordinance Committee meeting held on March 22, 2017, Senior Planner Asselmeier was asked to prepare a comparison of Yorkville’s Future Land Use Map with the County’s Land Resource Management Future Land Use Map. Attached for your review is the memo prepared by the County staff and a supplemental map illustrating the areas where differences in future land use occurs. Staff Comments Staff has reviewed the approximately ten (10) incidents within the 70-square mile planning area the County has identified where the City of Yorkville’s 2016 adopted Comprehensive Plan Update differs from the Kendall County Land Resource Management Plan.1 The original Kendall County Land Resource Management Plan was adopted in 1994 with select updates/amendments occurring between the years 1 http://www.co.kendall.il.us/wp-content/uploads/PBZ_Sections_1-4.pdf Memorandum To: Planning and Zoning Commission From: Krysti J. Barksdale-Noble, Community Development Director CC: Bart Olson, City Administrator Jason Engberg, Senior Planner Date: May 24, 2017 Subject: Yorkville/Kendall County Future Land Use Plan Differences 2 1997- 2011, with the updates to specific areas called out in the attached map prepared by the County happening in the following years: x 2001 - Changes made to reflect new planned development regulations, municipal annexations and new plans and economic development opportunities. x 2003 – Changes to include a more detailed plan for the Northern Three Townships (Little Rock, Bristol & Oswego Townships).2 x 2004/2005 – Changes to include a more detailed plan for Fox and Kendall Townships.3 Additionally, subsequent changes were also made in 2008 to the Kendall County plan, at the height of the housing boom, to include supplemental plans such as the Fox River Corridor Plan.4 Specific Differences Generally, the concerns of land use differences listed in the memo prepared by Kendall County indicates land being designated for commercial or mixed use business in their Land Use Resource Management Plan but identified as Suburban or Estate Residential in the Yorkville Comprehensive Plan Update. Suburban and Estate Residential future land use designations in the Yorkville Comprehensive Plan Update intend to have single-family homes are the primary use. However, it is noted in the Land Use Strategy of the Yorkville Comprehensive Plan Update (page 80) the approach of the future land use designations was to establish a balance between land uses to ensure a stable and growing tax base and realistically address the changes experienced in the local and regional economic conditions. Although, the Yorkville Comprehensive Plan land use map is a guide to future development and zoning decisions, it is also meant to be adjusted and changed when circumstances warrant a change in planning direction in a given area of the City. Staff has prepared the attached map to illustrate the location of the identified differences cited by Kendall County on the City’s adopted Future Land Use Map for your review and consideration. As part of our analysis of Kendall County’s map and memo, we did note that there were descriptive errors in cardinal directions (#4 listed as northeast should be northwest; #5 listed as southeast should be southwest and #6 listed as southeast should be southwest). Kendall County staff has indicated that they will only use the information gathered in their memo to advise future county petitioners of the differences that exist between the two (2) plans and that they should contact the City of Yorkville prior to the submission of any application seeking land use related entitlements. It was further stated that Kendall County staff is uncertain if a committee of the County or the Kendall County Board itself will request changes to either document in the future. City staff will be available at Wednesday night’s meeting to discuss this matter in greater detail with the Planning and Zoning Commission and answer any questions from the members. 2 http://www.co.kendall.il.us/wp-content/uploads/PBZ_Section_06.pdf 3 http://www.co.kendall.il.us/wp-content/uploads/PBZ_Section_07.pdf 4 http://www.co.kendall.il.us/wp-content/uploads/PBZ_FoxRiverCorridor.pdf DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING, BUILDING & ZONING 111 West Fox Street x Room 204 Yorkville, IL x 60560 (630) 553-4141 Fax (630) 553-4179 MEMORANDUM To: Ad-Hoc Zoning Ordinance Committee From: Matthew H.

This property is located within one and a half miles of the planning boundary for Yorkville, allowing the City the opportunity to review and provide comments to Kendall County. The petitioner, Ronald Smrz on behalf of the Ronald Smrz Trust, is requesting special use authorization to establish a storage business for non-motorized pull behind campers at 7821 Route 71. The 17-acre parcel is located approximately 0.15 miles south of Van Emmon Road on the west side of Route 71. The petitioner plans on utilizing about 1 acre of their property for this land use. Memorandum To: Planning and Zoning Commission From: Jason Engberg, Senior Planner CC: Bart Olson, City Administrator Krysti J. Barksdale-Noble, Community Development Director Date: February 5, 2020 Subject: PZC 2020-04 –County Case 19-34 7821 Route 71 (special use) 1.5 Mile Review Site Location PROPOSED PROJECT: According to the site plan, as shown in the illustration above, the petitioner plans to offer rental space for fifty-one (51) parking stalls to store non-motorized pull behind campers. Prospective renters would meet with the petitioner at the property at a pre-arranged time to view the property, sign a contract, and receive their access code to store their vehicle. The storage will be a gravel area surrounded by a 6-foot-tall chain link fence and evergreen trees located to the east, south, and west sides of the area. Additionally, there will be a gravel drive leading up to the storage area which will provide 15 parking spaces for patrons. The petitioner plans to use the existing storage building as an office for the business and does not plan on building any new structures. The business will be open for operation from 6:30AM until 9:00PM and it will be run by the petitioner and his wife. They will be the only employees of this business. The petitioner’s findings of fact and Kendall County’s recommendations for the special use may be found on pages 5 and 6 of the attached County Memorandum. The petitioner originally submitted plans which indicated less landscaping and permitted recreational vehicles and boats. Several residential neighbors spoke against the petition at the Kendall County Zoning Board of Appeals meeting. Therefore, the petitioner has provided additional landscape screening and will only allow pull trailers which due not contain any gasoline or oil. Proposed Site Plan FUTURE TRAILS: The Yorkville Integrated Transportation Plan designates a proposed conceptual trail along Route 71 through this property. The City has no immediate plans to add this trail as it is outside the City’s jurisdiction and would require a large amount of land to be annexed before a City trail could be built. Also, the Kendall County Land Resource Management Plan has a multi-use path designated along the frontage of the road as well. Therefore, there are no requirements be requested from the City, but we would like the petitioner to be aware of the general future transportation plans in the area. YORKVILLE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: Yorkville’s 2016 Comprehensive Plan designation for this property is Estate/Conservation Residential. This future land use is intended to provide flexibility for residential design in areas of Yorkville that can accommodate low-density detached single-family housing but also include sensitive environmental and scenic features that should be retained and enhanced. The most typical form of development within this land use will be detached single family homes on large lots. After review of the petitioner’s request, the proposed special use will not conform to Yorkville’s future land use in its Comprehensive Plan. While this may be the case, the property is not likely to be annexed into the City within the 10-year horizon of the plan. Also, if the property was brought into the City, it would most likely be part of a redevelopment project which would have this use removed. Due to the long timeframe of annexation and the likelihood of the land use being removed upon development, the alignment with the City’s Comprehensive Plan is not as vital as properties and developments already within City limits. Economic Development Committee The Economic Development Committee did not have any outright objections to the request. A member was contacted by a neighboring property owner to let them know that they object to the request. Members emphasized to provide as much screening as possible to help mitigate the negative visual impacts to the residential neighbors. Staff Recommendation & Comments Staff has reviewed the request for special use authorization and does not have an objection to the petitioner’s request. Staff is seeking input from the Planning and Zoning Commission for this request. Attachments 1. Application with Attachments 2.

The Petitioners originally wanted to vacate the ten foot (10’) public utility and drainage easement that runs along and parallel the northern lot lines of Lots 1 and 4 in Highgrove Subdivision. The Petitioners own the property immediately north of the subdivision and would like to construct buildings inside the current easement. On September 6, 2019, Fran Klaas sent an email expressing no opposition to the proposal on the condition that no public utilities were located in the easement and that the easement be relocated to the north portion of the Petitioners’ respective properties (09-07-200-034 and 09-07-200-033). Also on September 6, 2019, Greg Chismark submitted comments concurring with Fran Klaas.

Ron Smrz, on behalf of the Ronald Smrz Trust, would like to establish a storage business for boats and RVs at the subject property. The property is located at 7821 Route 71. The property is approximately seventeen (17) acres in size and the original proposed area for the special use permit was approximately two (2) acres in size. The current land use is agricultural. The future land use is rural residential. Route 71 is a State maintained highway and is considered a Scenic Route at the subject property. Yorkville has a trail planned along Route 71. There is a farmable wetland on the property consisting of approximately a tenth (0.1) of an acre. The adjacent land uses are agricultural, single-family residential, and farmstead. The adjacent zonings are A-1, A-1 SU, R-1, R-3, and R-3 PUD. The Land Resource Management Plan calls for the area to be rural residential. The nearby zonings are A-1, A-1 SU, A-1 BP, R-3, RPD-2, and R-3 PUD. The subject property has a special use permit for a landscaping business. The special use permit to the north is for a campground. The special use permit to the east is for a landscaping business. Lyon Farm is located south of the subject property. The Richard Young and Lyon Forest Preserves are in the vicinity. The aerial of the property and other pictures of the property were provided. EcoCat submitted on June 6, 2019, as part the Wetland Delineation Report and found the Fox River INAI Site and Yorkville Seep INAI Site in the area. The entire Wetland Delineation Report was provided. NRI application submitted on August 2, 2019. Oswego Township was emailed information on September 24, 2019. The Bristol-Kendall Fire Protection District was emailed information on September 24, 2019. Attachment 12, Page 2 ZPAC Meeting Minutes 10.1.19 Page 3 The United City of Yorkville was emailed information on September 24, 2019. According to the information provided to the County, the Petitioner originally planned to offer rental space for two hundred (200) rental units. The Petitioner would offer year-round storage access twenty-four (24) hours a day, seven (7) days a week. The Petitioner reduced the size of the operation to avoid having to provide onsite stormwater detention. Prospective renters would meet with the Petitioner at the property at a pre-arranged time to view the property, sign a contract, and receive their access code. The Petitioner plans to use the existing storage building shown in Attachment 6 as the office for the business. The Petitioner and his wife would be the only employees of the business. No new structures are planned for the property. A new occupancy permit might be required for the existing storage building. The location of the well was shown on the proposed site plan south of the existing house. No bathrooms or potable water sources would be available to patrons of the storage business. The Petitioner indicated that the storage area would have a gravel base. The property fronts Route 71 and an existing access point off of Route 71 exists. The Illinois Department of Transportation provided comments regarding this proposal. A new access permit will be required. Parking will occur in the gravel areas east of the existing building shown. The Petitioner originally proposed having fifteen (15) parking spaces. Per the Americans with Disabilities Act, at least one (1) of these spaces must be handicapped accessible. The Petitioner may change the parking layout. The Petitioner plans to install lighting on the exterior of the shed. The Petitioner plans to install a sign along Route 71. The sign must meet all of requirements of the Kendall County Zoning Ordinance and must not be illuminated. The Petitioner plans to remove the three (3) existing Norway Spruce trees. The Petitioner originally planned to plant forty (40) evergreens that will be between approximately four feet and six feet (4’-6’) in height at the time of planting. The evergreens were to be placed to the north and east of the storage area. The Petitioner may change the number of evergreen depending on the revised site plan. The evergreens would be planted by the end of May 2020. The Petitioner indicated that the storage area will have a chain-link fence around the storage area. The fence is planned to be six feet (6’) in height. There will be a twenty foot (20’) wide automatic gate on the east side of the storage area to control access to the area. The gate will be adjacent to the shed. A security monitoring system will also be installed with cameras on the shed. No information was provided regarding noise control. No new odors are foreseen. While very little trash or litter is expected to be generated by the proposed, no plans for litter control were provided. If approved, this would be the fifth active special use permit for this type of storage in unincorporated Kendall County. The Petitioner currently resides in the house on the property. The Petitioner agreed that all items stored on the property would remain licensed and in good working order. The Petitioner agreed to follow the Kendall County Inoperable Vehicle Ordinance and the Junk and Debris Ordinance. The Petitioner also agreed that none of the vehicles stored as part of the special use permit would be for agricultural purposes. Attachment 12, Page 3 ZPAC Meeting Minutes 10.1.19 Page 4 A revised site plan was submitted with a smaller project footprint in order to not have to install onsite storage of stormwater. Mr. Guritz asked about the threshold for stormwater. Mr. Asselmeier read the threshold from the Stormwater Management Ordinance. Commander Langston asked about size limitations for vehicles stored on the property. Mr. Smrz responded that the maximum would be approximately thirty-nine feet (39’). Commander Langston expressed concerns regarding larger vehicles accessing the property. Mr. Smrz noted that the State has plans to widen Route 71. Mr. Smrz will ask the State to see if a larger entrance is necessary. Ms. Andrews noted that the Kendall County Soil and Water Conservation District reviewed the proposal last month and will forward her report. Mr. Rybski noted the locations of the existing well and septic and expressed no concerns related to the Health Department. Mr. Asselmeier asked about a plan to address leaks such as motor oil leaks. Mr. Smrz said that he would check the site daily for leaks and will have spill pad clean-up kits available. Contaminated gravel will be disposed of properly. Discussion occurred regarding the stormwater requirements. The Petitioner expressed concerns about the retention area across Route 71. Mr. Klaas suggested that a variance could be pursued. The Petitioner stated that he wanted to examine his site plan to see what type of stormwater variance would be necessary and to see the costs associated with the project. Mr. Rybski made a motion, seconded by Mr. Klaas, to postpone the Petition until the Petitioner supplies an updated site plan or makes a decision regarding the Stormwater Management Ordinance requirements. With a voice vote of all ayes, the motion carried unanimously. Petition 19-35 John and Laura Gay Mr. Asselmeier summarized the request. John and Laura Gay would like to establish a kennel, The Pets Home Pet Resort and Spa, at the subject property which they own at 3601 Plainfield Road. They are also requesting a variance to allow the kennel to be approximately thirty feet, six and one half inches (30’-6 ½”) from property zoned other than residential at the kennel’s closest point with neighboring property. The property is approximately five (5) acres in size and the special use area is approximately four point seven (4.7) acres in size. The existing land use is agricultural and single-family residential. The future land use is suburban residential. There are no trails planned in the area. There are no floodplains or wetlands on the property, but Morgan Creek runs along the northern boundary of the property. The adjacent land uses are agricultural, farmstead, and single-family residential. The adjacent zoning is A-1. The Land Resource Management Plan calls for the area to be suburban residential with commercial to the south of the property. The adjacent zonings are A-1 and R-1 in the County and R-2 inside the Village of Oswego. The Ashcroft Place subdivision is located within one half mile (1/2) to the north.

They requested the building to be sprinkled. They also requested turn-around capabilities for fire apparatus on the subject property. The Village of Oswego was emailed information on September 23, 2019. The Petitioners currently reside in the one-story frame house on the property. Because of the shape of the property, a variance is required to the distance from the kennel to non-residentially zoned property. According to the information provided to the County, the Petitioners plan to offer pet daycare, boarding, and grooming services. The proposed hours of operation are Monday through Friday from 6:00 a.m. until 6:00 p.m. The Petitioners plan to hire five (5) employees. The maximum number of dogs planned for the site is one hundred (100). Per the Kendall County Zoning Ordinance, all animals will be indoors by sunset. The Petitioners believe the area is lacking this type of service. As noted in the site plan, the Petitioners plan to construct an approximately four thousand, one hundred fifty (4,150) square foot building southeast of the existing home on the property. The building shall consist of fourteen (14) rooms including a lobby, manager’s office, restroom, bathroom, break room, laundry, dog bathing room, three (3) pet suites, and pet areas for small, medium, and large dogs. A six foot (6’) tall wood fence would be located approximately fifteen feet (15’) from the building to the southeast and northeast. The fenced area would be approximately six hundred twenty (620) square feet in size and serve as a play area for the dogs. Building and Occupancy Permits will be required for the new building. The Petitioner indicated that they are working with the Health Department regarding well and septic facilities. The property fronts Plainfield Road and curb cut already exists for the proposed driveway for the kennel. The Petitioners are going to remove an existing driveway connection on the property. If this removal occurs, there would be one (1) dedicated entrance for the residence and one (1) dedicated entrance for the kennel. The Petitioners believe most of the traffic generated by the proposed business will occur in the morning and early evening when patrons drop-off and pick-up their pets. The Petitioners propose to install an eleven (11) spot parking lot. One (1) of the spaces would be handicapped accessible. The parking lot would access Plainfield Road through a twenty-two foot (22’) wide asphalt driveway. The Petitioners plan to installed three (3) lights along the driveway and in the parking lot. These lights are twelve feet (12’) in height. Two (2) wall pack will be installed along the east side of the building. Four (4) wall lights will be installed on the building; three (3) will be on the north side of the building and one (1) will be on the east side of the building. The description of the types of lighting that might be installed were provided. The exact light fixtures are not known. The Petitioners plan to have one (1) sign along Plainfield Road. The Petitioners plan to install eight (8) canopy trees, six (6) deciduous shrubs, twenty-eight (28) evergreen shrubs, and six (6) groundcovers, grass, and perennials. The specific location of the plants can be found on the site plan. The Petitioners believe the distance of their facility to existing houses combined with having the dogs indoors by sunset will prevent any noise issues. The Petitioners plan to install an eight foot by ten foot (8’ X 10’) refuse enclosure at the northeastern end of the parking lot. The enclosure is proposed to be six feet (6’) tall surrounded by brick with a steel gate for access. Refuse will be picked up weekly. If approved, this would be the fifth active special use permit for a kennel in unincorporated Kendall County. Chairman Prochaska asked if the Petitioners were agreeable to the requests of the Oswego Fire Protection District. Ms. Paloian responded that her clients are going through a cost estimate related to the sprinkling and alarming requirements. Ms. Paloian asked about the requirements regarding the turn-around. Mr. Asselmeier said that the Oswego Fire Attachment 12, Page 5 ZPAC Meeting Minutes 10.1.19 Page 6 Protection District would have to be contacted regarding their specifications. The property is on well and septic and a new well and septic will be installed for the special use permit. Mr. Rybski noted that the wash water from the dogs is also domestic waste. He encouraged the Petitioners to meet with the Health Department before any well and septic permits are issued. Refuse needs to be picked up as frequently to prevent overflow. Commander Langston asked about peak capacity and the impacts on traffic on Plainfield Road. The Petitioners anticipate most traffic occurring in the mornings and evenings when customers pick-up and drop-off their dogs. The Petitioners do not foresee a large amount of traffic. Mr. Asselmeier asked about weekend hours of operation. Ms. Paloian responded that the Petitioners will be onsite to handle dogs boarded over the weekend, but there will not be any drop-offs or pick-ups over the weekend. The dogs will not be outside for play during the weekend. The Petitioners will apply for a sign permit after a special use is issued. Ms. Andrews stated that she is working on the NRI Report. Mr. Klaas asked if the special use permit goes with the property. Mr. Asselmeier responded that this special use permit would go with the property.

Hansel Ridge, LLC would like an amendment to the Future Land Use Map contained in the Land Resource Management Plan for approximately eighteen point seven more or less (18.7 +/-) acres located on the northern half of the property currently addressed as 195 Route 52. If approved, the Petitioner would like to rezone the property to allow an athletic facility and a storage business to be located on the property; both of these requests were submitted as separate petitions. The application materials were provided. A map showing the property was provided; the northern portion of the property is the subject of this Petition. The adjacent land uses were agricultural or agricultural related. The adjacent zonings were agricultural or agricultural with a special use permit. The Land Resource Management Plan calls for the area to be Suburban Residential and Public/Institutional. The zonings within one half (1/2) mile were agricultural or agricultural with a special use permit. Pictures of the property were provided. KCRPC Meeting Minutes 1.22.20 Page 2 of 19 The property owner is not requesting a change in the Future Land Use Map for the southern twenty-one more or less (21 +/-) acres of their property. Their property will remain classified as Public/Institutional on the Future Land Use Map. Minooka School District 111 owns the adjacent properties to the north and west of the subject property. The A-1 special use to the north is for a church. The A-1 special use to the south is for a fertilizer and grain storage operation. The A-1 special use to the west appears to be for an airstrip. The property at 276 Route 52 has a special use permit for a landscaping business. Seven (7) existing houses are within one half (1/2) mile of the subject property. Petition information was sent to Seward Township on October 21, 2019. The Seward Township Planning Commission reviewed this request at their meeting on January 14, 2020. Concerns were expressed regarding traffic congestion and the potential for increased vehicular accidents. Discussion also occurred regarding drainage. The property’s proximity to Shorewood and its location were the reasons for seeking the change to the Land Resource Management Plan and for the requested map amendments and special use permits. The Seward Township Planning Commission recommended approval of the request. The minutes of this meeting are included were provided. The Seward Township Board reviewed this request at their meeting on January 14, 2020. They echoed the concerns of the Seward Township Planning Commission regarding traffic and drainage. The Seward Township Board recommended approval of the request. The minutes of this meeting were provided. Petition information was sent to the Village of Shorewood on October 21, 2019. The Village of Shorewood submitted an email on January 6, 2020, stating that they were in discussions with the Petitioner and would have further review at the Village’s February 5th Planning and Zoning Commission meeting. This email was provided. The Troy Fire Protection District has no objections to commercial uses as this location. ZPAC reviewed this proposal at their meetings on November 5, 2019, and January 7, 2020. At the November 5th meeting, discussion occurred regarding well and septic service at the site. The Petitioner agreed to a right- of-way dedication along the County Line Road frontage. At the January 7th meeting, the Petitioner provided updated septic information and updated traffic information. The final size of the detention pond had yet been determined. The Petitioner was working on a pre-annexation agreement with Shorewood that would allow the Village to annex the property when the property becomes contiguous to the Village. It was noted that the Village of Shorewood would like the special use to apply to only the storage portion of the property and that the acreage between the storage units and County Line Road be zoned business without a special use permit and that a formal subdivision occur. The Petitioner agreed to a sixty foot (60’) right-of-way dedication as measured from the centerline of County Line Road including a ten foot (10’) dedication for utilities. It was also noted that the Village of Shorewood requested the removal of some fencing and the reorientation of some of the storage buildings. It was noted that the landscaping plan and signage plan required more definition. ZPAC recommended forwarding the proposal to the Kendall County Regional Planning Commission without objection; two (2) members were absent. The minutes of these meetings were provided. KCRPC Meeting Minutes 1.22.20 Page 3 of 19 The Village of Shorewood’s Future Land Use Map calls for this property to be Commercial and Government/Institutional. Will County gives deference to the Village of Shorewood. Will County favors suburban development, whether that be commercial or residential, in this area. The subject property was originally planned to be a future school location. The southern portion of the subject property and the property immediately to the north of the subject property are both planned to be Public/Institutional. In addition, the property to the west and the property to the north are both owned by the Minooka School District 111. A school could still be placed in the area. Therefore, uses that support and that are not in conflict with educational related uses, including many commercial uses, could be placed on the subject property. Because commercial uses require site plan approval, because the Village of Shorewood’s Comprehensive Plan calls for this property to be Commercial, and because many commercial uses could be placed on the subject property that would complement education uses, Staff recommends approval of the requested change. Chairman Ashton opened the public hearing at 7:10 p.m. Member Davis asked if any of the farm buildings would be removed. Dan Kramer, Attorney for the Petitioner, responded no; the farm buildings are not located on the portion of the property under consideration for the map change. Pat Colaric, County Line Road, requested clarification of the request. Mr. Asselmeier explained that the existing Future Land Use Map calls for this property to be Public/Institutional. The Petitioner would like to rezone the property to commercial uses. One (1) of the criteria used to evaluate the rezoning from agricultural to business was consistency with the Land Resource Management Plan. The Petitioner needs the Future Land Use Map changed in order to have the rezoning request be consistent with the Land Resource Management Plan. Chairman Ashton said that the zoning portion of the request will occur later in the meeting. Mr. Colaric was concerned about commercial uses in the area because of traffic concerns. Member Hamman asked if Minooka School District had any input on the proposal. Mr. Asselmeier responded that Minooka School District owns the property to the west and to the north of the subject property. The School District still has plans to use their property for educational purposes. The School District was notified of the hearing. Dan Kramer, Attorney for the Petitioner, testified that the southern portion of the property would not be sold as part of the requested rezoning. Mr. Kramer explained the types of sports teams that would use the athletic facility. The athletic facility would have an indoor baseball field. The School District favors the idea. This facility would be four (4) times bigger than the facility on Galena Road. Mr. Kramer requested approval of the amendment to the Land Resource Management Plan. Chairman Ashton adjourned the public hearing at 7:16 p.m. Member Nelson made a motion, seconded by Member Casey, to recommend approval of Petition 19-37. The votes were as follows: Ayes (7): Ashton, Bledsoe, Casey, Davis, Hamman, Nelson, and Wilson Nays (0): None KCRPC Meeting Minutes 1.22.20 Page 4 of 19 Absent (2): McCarthy-Lange and Rodriguez The motion carried. The proposal goes to the Zoning Board of Appeals on January 27, 2020. The Kendall County Regional Planning Commission concluded their review of Petition 19-37 at 7:17 p.m. PETITIONS 19-34 Ronald Smrz on Behalf of the Bank of Lyon Trust Mr. Asselmeier summarized the request. Ron Smrz, on behalf of Bank of Lyon Trust, would like to establish a storage business for boats and RVs at the subject property. The application material and amended site plan were provided. The Petitioner updated the site plan in December to address stormwater management concerns. The property was granted a special use permit for the retail sale of nursery stock through Ordinance 1985-10, a copy of which was provided. This proposal will not impact the existing special use permit. The property is approximately seventeen (17) acres in size, but the special use area is approximately one (1) acre in size. The current land use is agricultural. The future land use is rural residential. Route 71 is a State maintained highway and is considered a Scenic Route at the subject property. Yorkville has a trail planned along Route 71. There is a farmable wetland on the property consisting of approximately a tenth (0.1) of an acre. The adjacent land uses are agricultural, single-family residential, and farmstead. The adjacent zonings are A-1, A-1 SU, R-1, R-3, and R-3 PUD.

Yorkville will be reviewing this proposal at their February meetings. ZPAC met on this proposal on October 1, 2019. Discussion occurred at that meeting regarding obtaining a variance to the Stormwater Management Ordinance. In the ensuing months, the Petitioner decided not to pursue the variance and amended the site plan to meet the requirements of the Kendall County Stormwater Management Ordinance. ZPAC reviewed the revised site plan at their meeting on January 7, 2020, and recommended approval of the proposal with no objections. The minutes of the October ZPAC meeting were provided. The minutes of the January ZPAC meeting were provided. According to revised site plan, the Petitioner plans to offer rental space for fifty-one (51) parking stalls which is down from the two hundred (200) rental units in the original proposal. The proposed hours of operation are daily from 6:00 a.m. until 9:00 p.m. Prospective renters would meet with the Petitioner at the property at a pre-arranged time to view the property, sign a contract, and receive their access code. The Petitioner plans to use the existing storage building as the office for the business. The Petitioner and his wife would be the only employees of the business. No new structures are planned for the property. A new occupancy permit might be required for the existing storage building. The location of the well was shown on the proposed site plan south of the existing house. No bathrooms or potable water sources would be available to patrons of the storage business. The Petitioner indicated that the storage area would have a gravel base. The site plan shows the proposed use to be away from the farmable wetland. The Petitioner plans to monitor the site for motor vehicle related leaks and would remove contaminated gravel from the property. The property fronts Route 71 and an existing access point off of Route 71 exists. The Illinois Department of Transportation provided comments regarding this proposal. A new access permit will be required. Parking will occur in the gravel areas east of the existing building. The Petitioner provided a lighting plan showing six (6) new light poles, each twenty feet (20’) in height. The lighting plan was provided. The Petitioner plans to install a sign along Route 71.

The Petitioner plans to plant seven (7) evergreens that will be between approximately four feet and six feet (4’-6’) in height at the time of planting. The evergreens will be placed southeast of the parking area. The evergreens will be planted by the end of May 2020. A vegetative swale is also planned for south of the parking area. KCRPC Meeting Minutes 1.22.20 Page 6 of 19 The Petitioner indicated that the storage area will have a chain-link fence around the storage area. The fence is planned to be six feet (6’) in height. There will be a twenty foot (20’) wide automatic gate on the east side of the storage area to control access to the area. The lock on the gate will be timed to prevent patrons from accessing the property during non-business hours. The gate will be adjacent to the shed. A security monitoring system will also be installed with cameras on the shed shown. The Petitioner agreed to provide the Sheriff’s Department and Bristol-Kendall Fire Protection District with a passcode to access the gate. No information was provided regarding noise control. No new odors are foreseen. While very little trash or litter is expected to be generated by the proposed, no plans for litter control were provided. If approved, this would be the fifth active special use permit for this type of storage in unincorporated Kendall County. The Petitioner currently resides in the house on the property. The Petitioner agreed that all items stored on the property would remain licensed and in good working order. The Petitioner agreed to follow the Kendall County Inoperable Vehicle Ordinance and the Junk and Debris Ordinance. The Petitioner also agreed that none of the vehicles stored as part of the special use permit would be for agricultural purposes. The proposed Findings of Fact were as follows: That the establishment, maintenance, or operation of the special use will not be detrimental to or endanger the public health, safety, morals, comfort, or general welfare. The operation of the special use will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, morals, comfort, or general welfare provided that the operator of the business allowed by this special use permit develops the site according to the submitted site plan, follows the agreed upon hours of operation, has a plan to address motor vehicle related leaks, and follows the Kendall County Inoperable Vehicle Ordinance and related ordinances. That the special use will not be substantially injurious to the use and enjoyment of other property in the immediate vicinity for the purposes already permitted, nor substantially diminish and impair property values within the neighborhood. The Zoning classification of property within the general area of the property in question shall be considered in determining consistency with this standard. The proposed use shall make adequate provisions for appropriate buffers, landscaping, fencing, lighting, building materials, open space and other improvements necessary to insure that the proposed use does not adversely impact adjacent uses and is compatible with the surrounding area and/or the County as a whole. Provided that the business operates as proposed, no injury should occur to other property and property values should not be negatively impacted. That adequate utilities, access roads and points of ingress and egress, drainage, and/or other necessary facilities have been or are being provided. This is true. The Illinois Department of Transportation has not expressed any KCRPC Meeting Minutes 1.22.20 Page 7 of 19 concerns regarding this use locating at this property. The business will not have any restroom facilities or drinking water facilities for patrons. The Petitioner will have to secure a stormwater management permit. That the special use shall in all other respects conform to the applicable regulations of the district in which it is located, except as such regulations may in each instance be modified by the County Board pursuant to the recommendation of the Zoning Board of Appeals. This is true. That the special use is consistent with the purpose and objectives of the Land Resource Management Plan and other adopted County or municipal plans and policies. True, the proposed use in consistent with an objective found on Page 6-34 of the Kendall County Land Resource Management Plan which calls for “a strong base of agricultural, commercial and industrial uses that provide a broad range of job opportunities, a healthy tax base, and improved quality of services to County residents” through the encouragement “. . . of locally owned businesses.” Staff recommends approval of the requested special use permit for a storage facility for motor vehicles, boats, trailers, and other recreational vehicles subject to the following conditions and restrictions: 1.

All efforts were done with an eye towards encouraging future growth and orderly development within Yorkville.Therefore,this report highlights the role the Planning and Zoning Commission (PZC)has had in achieving those accomplishments,as well as an introduction of goals for the year ahead which includes the following: There were a total of 2,143 Building Permits issued in 2019. 178 new residential housing starts. Foreclosures continued a steady decline with 51 newly filed foreclosures in 2019. Large development projects recently approved, opened or under construction include: Holiday Inn Express, Martini Banquet Hall, Arby’s, Morton Buildings and Lenny’s Gas N Wash. There were 27 applications for various planning and zoning related requests filed in 2019. Continued implementation of the Comprehensive Plan with several projects underway, such as Downtown Art Program, Tactical Urbanism, Downtown Façade Program & Downtown Landscape Hill project. Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) Kick-Off 2018 International Council of Codes building code series adopted.

In total, there were 56 newly filed foreclosures in 2018 and 51 in 2019, a decrease by five (5) less filings. While this represents a marginal decline in new foreclosure filings, the overall effect appears to represent stabilization in the housing market for Yorkville. Foreclosure Data Foreclosure Data Foreclosure Data According to RealtyTrac,Illinois has a newly filed foreclosure rate of 1 in every 1,336 (down from 1 in every 1,420 in 2018).In 2019,Kendall County is no longer ranked in the top 5 counties with the highest rates of foreclosures in Illinois.While Kendall County had a newly filed foreclosure rate of 1 in every 840 homes,Yorkville faired slightly better with 1 foreclosure for every 872 homes,as of October 2019.
