Commissioners Vinyard and Millen, respectively.
Roll call: Hyett-yes, Millen-yes, Olson-yes, Vinyard-yes, Horaz-yes. Carried 5-0.
The Public Hearing description was read by Chairman Olson:
1. PZC 2022-18 Greg Groat, Correct Digital Displays, Inc., petitioner, has filed an
application with the United City of Yorkville, Kendall County, Illinois, requesting
sign variance approval to permit a building mounted sign to be larger than the
maximum permitted sign area, wider than the maximum permitted sign width, and
to allow the sign to be closer than one (1) foot from a vertical or horizontal edge
of the wall to which the sign is affixed. The real property is generally located
northeast of the North Bridge Street (Route 47) and East Main Street intersection.
(see Court Reporter's full transcript)
(The Petitioner requested the standards be entered into the public record)

Olson-yes, Vinyard-yes, Horaz-yes, Hyett-yes. Carried 5-0.
Unfinished Business None
New Business
1. PZC 2022-19 (see full description above)
Chairman Olson read the standards for granting the variance. There was no further
discussion and Mr. Vinyard moved, seconded by Mr. Millen, to approve PZC 2022-19.
The motion was read by Mr. Vinyard as follows: In consideration of testimony presented
during a Public Hearing on November 9, 2022 and approval of the findings of fact, the
Planning and Zoning Commission recommends approval of a request to vary the sign
regulations contained in Section 10-20-9-A-1 of the United City of Yorkville Zoning
Ordinance to permit a building mounted sign to be erected which exceeds the maximum
sign area, maximum sign width, and be located closer than one foot from a horizontal and
vertical edge of the wall to which it is affixed at the property commonly known as 302 N.
Bridge Street as stated in a staff memorandum dated November 2, 2022.
Roll call: Olson-yes, Vinyard-yes, Horaz-yes, Hyett-yes, Millen-yes. Carried 5-0.
2. PZC 2022-21 Donald Smith, petitioner, is requesting a variance to encroach into the
required front yard in the County's R-3 One Family Residential Zoning District. The
petitioner is seeking to construct a garage addition onto the front of his house which
would encroach the fifty foot (50') required front yard setback by twenty feet (20')
resulting in a thirty foot (30') front yard. The real property is located at 505 E. Spring
Street which is generally located at the northeast corner of the McHugh Road and E.
Spring Street intersection.
Page 3 of 3
Mr. Engberg presented the information for this petition and said it is a 1.5 mile review
near Wackerlin Subdivision. The county received a variance request for a front-yard
setback which is currently 50 feet. The petitioner wishes to add an extension on the
garage on the front of his house and convert an old garage into livable space. This
would leave a 30 foot setback. It is close to the Yorkville planning boundary and a
nearby house is zoned R-2 and already in the city. Under the R-2 zoning in the city code,
the front yard setback is 30 feet. He feels the petitioner will eventually be incorporated in
the city. Mr. Smith is improving the property rather than doing a major improvement.
Mr. Vinyard moved and Mr. Millen seconded to approve a motion of approval for PZC
2022-21 Donald Smith. Mr. Vinyard read the motion as follows: In consideration of the
proposed mile and half review of Kendall County Petition 2022-21 for a variance request
to encroach the required front yard setback by twenty feet within the Kendall County R-3
Zoning District at the property commonly known as 505 E. Spring Street, the Planning
and Zoning Commission recommends the City Council to not object to the request.
Roll call: Vinyard-yes, Horaz-yes, Hyett-yes, Millen-yes, Olson-yes. Carried 5-0.
Additional Business None
Adjournment
There was no further business and the meeting was adjourned at 7:34pm on a motion and
second by Commissioners Vinyard and Horaz, respectively. Unanimous voice vote
approval..

CHAIRMAN OLSON: All right. The public
hearing up for discussion tonight is PZC 2022-18,
Greg Groat, Correct Digital Displays,
Incorporated, petitioner, has filed an
application with the United City of Yorkville,
Kendall County, Illinois, requesting sign
variance approval to permit a building mounted
sign to be larger than the maximum permitted sign
area, wider than the maximum permitted sign
width, and to allow the sign to be closer than
one foot from a vertical or horizontal edge of
the wall to where -- to which the sign is
affixed.
The real property is generally
located northeast of the North Bridge Street,
Route 47, and East Main Street intersection.
All right. Is the petitioner
present or, Jason, are you doing the
presentation? What are we doing?

MR. ENGBERG: Greg can start, then I can
fill in.
CHAIRMAN OLSON: Do you have anything to
say, sir?
MR. GROAT: Yeah, I 'd be happy to, I
just am not exactly sure how you would like to
proceed as far as --
CHAIRMAN OLSON: Pretend I don't know
anything about it.
GREG GROAT,
having been first duly sworn, testified from the
podium as follows:
MR. GROAT: Okay. So I was with the
company for about two months when I started and
spoke to the customer, and at that point I really
had no frame of reference on permitting or how
that process went, so ignorance is kind of my
plea on that situation. I 've gotten well versed
over the last year and almost a half probably
through a lot of learning, so it was a good
lesson to have learned.
I think I stated in the material
that you have that to move the sign where it was
proposed to move would have made it less visible

going northbound on 47, almost impossible to see.
Understanding what the ordinance is
now, hindsight being 20/20, I would have probably
most definitely taken the correct precautions to
make it follow the code, but I think, as many
people have stated, as you see the sign now, the
size of the sign, although it is large, doesn't
seem preposterously large to how it's affixed on
the building.
I think if it was to be moved, there
would be really no other place to put the sign on
the building that would really make sense,
especially with that frontage and how -- the
speed of vehicles going by, it would really kind
of be a futile effort.
So with that being said, I do
apologize, as I have before, for the oversight,
it was not intentional, but I was hoping that the
variance could be granted so he could keep the
sign where it's at.
Really the ordinance that really hit
me more was the vestibule being ten feet away
from the building, whereas if it was four feet or
closer to the building the entire front of the

building could have been used and it wouldn't
have been an issue, so, you know, understanding
that now, hindsight being 20/20, it would have
been different, but -- so that's why we are
requesting a variance.
CHAIRMAN OLSON: Thank you. Jason, do
you have anything to add?
MR. ENGBERG: So I can either do that
here or outside the public hearing. If you want
me to do that here, I can.
So I can just give Staff's summary
of what happened. So, yes, back in the spring
Code Enforcement was out and saw the sign being
changed at OMG Liquor up on Bridge Street, so,
for the most part, they stopped, said, hey, you
know, I don't think we've got a permit for this,
we need you to come in and apply for a permit.
Like was stated, it was just one of those things
that happened.
So we reviewed the permit, but it
was denied. It was too large per our ordinance,
too wide for the wall to which it was affixed,
and it was closer than one foot to the edge.
If you guys remember, about a few

years ago, we actually did a text amendment for
this exact reason, it was actually a sign over on
Commercial up there, that we were trying to add
some proportionality clauses into the text of our
zoning ordinance.
The O M G Liquor sign was originally
approved prior, so it measured the whole
frontage, it wasn't measuring any depth or
architectural features on the building, so it was
permitted in 2015.
So now that it changed, when they
submitted the permit we had to deny it because
that vestibule sticks out nine to ten feet, that
creates a new wall, so while not drastically
larger than the O M G sign, the way the text reads
now in the code, it would not permit it, so they
are requesting a variance to make it larger.
The maximum permitted is at the --
on that wall is 20.9 square feet, they are asking
for 36 and a half; the side width, the proposed
is ten feet, the maximum should be 7 .8 feet; and
it's about three -- three to nine inches from the
edge, so they are asking for that as well.
There was questions from EDC about

how we address this in the UDO, so we're working
on that project still to update our codes. We
have been discussing is this working for us. I
know we made the text amendment, but as we're
moving forward, what does the city want, what are
the ideals.
I believe, as it stands now, at
least in the draft, we are going to remove that
one foot from the edge, because there are a lot
of unique signs and things like that, can be
brought up to the edge and still look nice and
still, you know, give us the aesthetic look we
are looking for, but, you know, still keeping
with the widths, that's still in the UDO, so this
would still -- even if the UDO passed, this would
still require a variance request, which is what
they are doing, so while the UDO might have -- if
it passed the way it is drafted right now, it
might be a little more lenient, but this would
still not be a permitted sign, so like I said,
they are requesting a variance for those special
things so they can keep it where it's at. You
know, we can answer any other questions in terms
of the standard in the memorandum.

MS. NOBLE: Enter into the record.
MR. ENGBERG: Oh, yes. The standards
for a variance, the answers on the application,
we would like to have those entered into the
public record.
CHAIRMAN OLSON: All right. So can you
help me remember what solution we came to for
Greg's sign back in the day? Because I remember
we hemmed and hawed and then Krysti lowered --
came down from the heavens like an angel and
offered a solution.
MR. ENGBERG: So our solution, that was
an appeal of how our -- that was not a specific
sign variance request, that was an appeal of the
appeal process for how Krysti and I determined
how the code was interpreted, right, so we had a
little broader language previously, so we
couldn't -- the way we had always measured signs
and measured walls was one way, but it was
determined that it's broad and vague, so we
decided to let them keep the sign up. They won
the appeal, but we would go back and change the
text within the ordinance so it wouldn't be
allowed in the future.

MS. NOBLE: Right. So they are legally
non-conforming.
MR. ENGBERG: Correct.
CHAIRMAN OLSON: So there is standards
that you the owner have to meet in order for us
to grant a variance, and they are very specific,
so as much as we would want to do something
because we want to help business owners and we
want -- we don't want any signs to have to be
replaced, we don't want to waste anybody's money,
you might not meet all these variance
requirements.
Help my memory, is this something
that we have the final say on or is it going to
City Council?
MR. ENGBERG: This is not. So this will
be a recommendation to City Council. If Planning
and Zoning Commission recommends approval, they
need a simple majority at City Council. If you
guys recommend against a variance, they would
need a super majority vote at City Council.
CHAIRMAN OLSON: So to make sure that's
clear, right, we can say yes or no tonight. Our
saying yes or no just determines how many votes

the City Council needs in order to pass it, all
right?
So we'll talk about it, we'll vote
it, but this is not the final say-so on it,
you've got to come back to the City Council
meeting where they will vote and then that will
be actually who determines what's going on.
Okay. Any of you folks in Zoomland,
Rich, Greg, have any questions for Jason right
now?
MR. VINYARD: I have one question. What
percentage of the -- what percentage of the area
is taken up by the sign?
I know we discussed this because
with Greg's building, when you look at -- it is
measured in linear, there are three separate
sections that encompass that linear, so I don't
remember, did we come up with a percentage of
that area?
MS. NOBLE: Yes. Go ahead, Jason.
MR. ENGBERG: Just do the math real
quick. So it looks like there is 50 feet of
frontage, so it probably takes up 36 square feet,
yeah, so something around there, because, again,

it was originally approved, you get two square
foot of sign for every one linear foot.
Typically, let's say it was a
frontage, they would be allowed 100 square feet
of signage on that facade. They do have some
smaller sized ones, but it would be size-wise,
just like why the O M G sign was allowed, it would
be well under the total size.
CHAIRMAN OLSON: All right. Is there
anyone present in here or Zoomland who wishes to
speak in favor of the request?
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN OLSON: Is there anyone that
wishes to speak in opposition of the request?
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN OLSON: All right. Seeing as
there are none -- Oh. Go ahead, Greg.
MR. MILLEN: We want to go on the
record. I think we put up that sign up fast for
the variance, you know, so we went through the
process, and then that's when we were here before
for the sign, if you remember that.

CHAIRMAN OLSON: Sue you mean?
MR. MILLEN: Yeah.
CHAIRMAN OLSON: Yeah.
MR. MILLEN: And she said oh, the sign
is already up, I don't think it's offensive or --
I think that's a good indication. I think the
sign also -- as two-time Chamber president,
business owners, now 20, 30 years, I don't think
it's that out-of-line either, but again, again,
that's my opinion as a business owner and -- as
far as that perspective, from business, and be
fair.
CHAIRMAN OLSON: That is a good
perspective. Okay. Thank you, Greg. Since all
public testimony regarding this petition has been
taken, may I have a motion, please, to close the
taking of testimony at this public hearing?
MR. VINYARD: So moved.
