Unfinished Business None
New Business
1. PZC 2024-33 Stephen Cross/Costco (see full description above)
Ms. Noble listed the deviations from the code that are requested by the petitioner, along with staff
recommendations. They are regarding: 1) number of parking stalls, 2) relief from minimum EV
charger infrastructure, 3) vehicle access—developer will insure cross access enacted via part of
a real estate deal, 4) requesting slightly taller poles for lighting, 5) landscaping plan,
6) appearance standards/masonry requirements. Staff is supportive of all deviation requests.
She also discussed signage and the Special Use for the fuel station. Staff recommends approval
of the Final Plat contingent on the engineering comments. She said staff supports a change in the
2016 Comprehensive Plan land use from mid-density residential to destination commercial. She
said the Comp Plan is up for renewal next year. The existing B-3 zoning classification and
commercial is permitted there. Staff supports all of these.
Ms. Noble reviewed the standards for the Special Use and noted that the standards and
petitioner's responses will be entered into the record.

Mr. Vinyard addressed handicapped parking from a question raised from a meeting participant.

with other 55+ facilities coming into the city, he had concern. Mr. Vinyard said handicapped
parking is federally controlled.

2. PZC 2024-30 Nicholas S. Bellone, on behalf of Ament Road Solar 1, LLC (Tenant) and
Janet M. Dhuse on behalf of the Janet Dhuse Declaration of Family Trust Dated March 1,
2013 (Owner) are seeking a special use permit for a commercial solar energy facility and
a variance to Section 36-282(17)(a) of the Kendall County Zoning Ordinance to allow a
commercial solar energy facility on land within 1.5 miles of municipality without an
annexation agreement.
Ms. Mendez said this property is south of Ament Rd., west of Rte. 47 and near the Windett Ridge
subdivision. In August, 2024 the City Council formally agreed they would not ask for a pre-
Annexation Agreement. The 1,442 feet setback from Ament Rd. meets the city's 1,000 foot
setback. The Comp Plan designation is agricultural and the proposed solar farm is consistent with
this. It will be brought to the January 20th City Council meeting.
Action Item
1.5 – Mile Review
Mr. Crouch moved and Ms. Linnane seconded a motion to approve PZC 2024-30 Ament Road
Solar I, LLC for a solar farm. Mr. Vinyard read the motion.

24-30 by Ament Road Solar 1, LLC, seeking a special use permit for a commercial solar energy
system and variance to allow a commercial solar energy system on land within 1.5 miles of a
municipality without an annexation agreement consisting of (2) parcels totaling ~93.4 acres, the
Planning and Zoning Commission recommends to the City Council not to object to the request.
Roll call: Linnane-yes, Vinyard-yes, Forristall-yes, Crouch-yes. Motion carried 4-0.

Cross, Costco's real estate development director
for the Midwest region here.
We are really happy to be here with
you this evening as you mentioned for a proposed
Costco warehouse to be located within the
Yorkville Crossing community, located on Veterans
Parkway between McHugh and East Countryside.
We are really thrilled to be here at

getting to this point, and looking forward to
going through our testimony here, our
presentation and answering questions that you
might have.
With me tonight we have Larry
Dziurdzic, who represents Costco real estate, he
will be giving most of the presentation here, and
we also have Dan Free, a civil engineer from V 3 ,
Peter Reinhofer, who is also from V 3 , he is our
transportation engineer, and then online we have
Risa Yuki, who is out of -- our architect out of
Seattle, she is actually in Texas right now, but
she is online to provide some testimony regarding
the architecture and building itself, and we also
have I believe Amanda McAbee on the line who is
our landscape architect who is able to answer any
questions on that.
So with that, I will turn it right
over to Larry who can jump into the presentation
which is teed up there, and the whole team is
here to answer questions.
CHAIRMAN VINYARD: Thank you.
MR. DZIURDZIC: Thanks, Steve.

LARRY DZIURDZIC,
having been first duly sworn, thereupon testified
as follows:
MR. DZIURDZIC: Let me get situated
here. As Steve mentioned, my name is Larry
Dziurdzic. I am a Costco real estate consultant.
My address is 1955 Raymond Drive in Northbrook.
Tonight we put together a short
presentation for the Plan Commission's
consideration. The agenda tonight from our end
is I will be going through a couple slides
describing what we are actually requesting from
the Plan Commission tonight.
We are requesting some deviations
from the UDO code. I will describe the site plan
in a little bit greater detail. I will turn over
the mic to our transportation engineer, who will
describe a couple of the intersection
improvements, and we will conclude with our --
with Risa Yuki, with our architecture, who can
describe the building in a little more detail.
As Steve mentioned, we have a
landscape architect and our civil engineer
available for questions.

So with that, I will go to the next
slide. Let's see.
MS. NOBLE: We will have to do it. For
whatever reason, it's not --
MR. DZIURDZIC: It's not hooked up to my
remote? Okay. That's fine. Next slide here,
this is a location map. I think most of you know
where the property is located.
It's approximately 3 3 acres. It's a
great site, we really like the location.
Veterans Parkway, of course, is on the south end,
we have Countryside Parkway on the east, McHugh
Road to the west.
We are currently located, or where
the meeting is being held tonight, is City Hall
to the north end there. You've got Crimson Lane
up towards the north end there.
What I highlighted in blue, that's
actually the Yorkville Crossing Planned Unit
Development, so we are part of this larger
planned unit development, and tonight we are
requesting some deviations -- I 'm sorry, not
deviations, but an amendment to that PUD to
incorporate our proposed site plan along with the

deviations and a special use for the fuel
facility, which I will get into in a little bit
more detail.
If we could go to the next slide.
So this will be the 20th store in the Chicagoland
area, and as -- Mr. Vinyard said that we are
under contract with Joda Land Holding, they are
the seller that we will be purchasing the
property from.
We are requesting amending the
Yorkville Crossing Planned Unit Development to
include Costco's site plan with certain
deviations, which I will get into, from the
City's Unified Development code.
The fuel facility that we are
requesting is a special use under the code and
there are certain standards that go along with
that. I won't go into those standards, there is
quite a few of them, but we have indicated those
in great detail and we have submitted those with
our application, so I would like to make sure
those are entered into the record into my
testimony, and then, of course, we are seeking
final plat approval.

So we are requesting five deviations
from the UDO code, so I have listed these
basically in summary, and I know Staff's report
goes into greater detail.
Number one is we are asking to
exceed the maximum parking on the property, and
when I get into the site plan I can talk more
about the parking and what Costco's standards are
for parking, but I think the maximum allowed per
this B -3 zoning district is 300 and some odd
spaces.
We are looking at anywhere from
950 -- or, I 'm sorry, 8 50 to 9 50. This plan is
proposing 9 55 with the expansion of about 1 0 1 ,
and that's just necessary for the operation of
Costco. We would never be able to function with
300 and some parking spaces.
Number two is relief from the
electric vehicle charging infrastructure
requirement.
Number three is to increase the
height of our poles in our parking lot. I
believe the code is 35 feet, yeah, and we are
looking at 36, six.

We are looking at some relief from
the building foundation areas and the interior
landscaping zones from the one interior parking
space for every ten parking spaces, and then the
last requirement is really from the masonry
requirements on the building, and Risa will get
into our design of the architecture.
So we could jump to the site plan.
So the site plan, as I mentioned, has roadways on
all three sides. We positioned the building
towards the center of the property, and that
allows us to create some outlots in the front
along Veterans, so those outlots are
approximately seven acres, and that's going to be
for future development, future commercial or
retail development.
The plan sets up real nicely to
show -- or to display our parking in the front.
We've got parking fields on the south side of the
building, we've got parking on the east side of
the building with great access to the front.
The entrance to the building is at
the southeast corner, kind of that chamfer, that
45-degree, and that's been oriented towards the

intersection of Veterans and Countryside, so that
was done for a purpose.
Our loading is at the southwest
corner of the building. We have our detention
stormwater facility located at the far north end
and our fuel facility is located at the southwest
corner.
As I mentioned, we are about
1 6 1 ,562 square feet and we have about 1 16,000
square feet of sales floor area.
Our proposed parking area is 8 55
with the availability to expand our parking
another 1 0 1 parking spaces, for a total of 9 56,
so we are seeking approval for 9 56 at this time.
The fuel facility is a four pump by
four pump layout, so 16 pumps total, 32 field
dispensers. That was sized by our gasoline
operation team internal out in Issaquah,
Washington.
Costco has several operational
departments and so this was carefully examined
and studied based on the anticipated membership
in the trade area, is how we describe the trade
area.

So I think the next slide, this is
just overall site context of an aerial photograph
of the site plan in relation to the surrounding
area.
You can see most of the property is
vacant, undeveloped property, except south of
Veterans, you have some property in the county
and some retail commercial uses there.
And as I mentioned, the fuel
facility, this is a larger view. We are
providing a 155-foot queue for adequate stacking
and distance for cars to move through the site.
Cars are moving from the west to the
east. Approximately 6 5 to 75 percent of our
members get gas first and then they go into the
store, so this is a natural progression of cars
entering on the west side and then exiting on the
east side, and then right into our main parking
lot or the interior perimeter east/west drive, so
it sets up real nice.
You can see that we dashed in an
expansion area to the south end of the fuel
facility for another additional four pumps, so
this can expand if needed in the future, we could

get up to 20 pumps, and if you notice to the west
of the queuing area there is a little bit of real
estate there before McHugh Road.
We could extend the queue a little
bit further to the west to get additional
stacking if needed, so there is room here for
expansion and growth if required.
The fuel facility elevations, they
are a real simple structure, very horizontal,
contemporary, modern looking, and we are taking
cues from the warehouse which Risa will describe
a little bit later on in the presentation.
Next slide. So at this point I
would like to turn it over to Peter, he can talk
a little bit more about the traffic improvements
at the various driveway -- proposed driveways.
Peter?
MR. REINHOFER: Thanks.
PETER REINHOFER,
having been first duly sworn, thereupon testified
as follows:
MR. REINHOFER: Good evening. I am

development.
As Larry said, from an access
perspective, this is probably one of our better
sites I have worked on for Costco. Go to the
next slide, please.
We are proposing six access points,
direct access points, to the site, three along
Countryside, one along West 34, two along McHugh.
Kind of working up at the top and
kind of going clockwise, driveway one will be a
full access driveway along Countryside. We are
proposing to restripe the existing westbound
left-turn lane into the site. This driveway also
aligns with Crimson Lane to the north.
Costco driveway two is also a
full-access driveway, and here we are proposing
to construct a new westbound left-turn lane
within the existing landscape median. The design
of that left-turn lane would meet IDOT standards.
Driveway three is also along McHugh
and that would be a right-in, right-out driveway.
Driveway four is along U .S . 34 that
aligns with Tuma Road to the south. For this
driveway we are currently proposing this as a

three-quarter access, so allowing a right-in,
right-out and left-in movement, so no left-out
movements coming out of Costco onto eastbound 34.
Here we are proposing to construct a
new left-turn lane within the existing median
also, also following IDOT guidelines for storage
and taper based on the design speed of U .S . 34.
Driveway -- I 'm sorry, and driveway
four we are also constructing a westbound
right-turn lane. Sorry about that.
Driveway five would be a full access
driveway along McHugh Road. Here we are
proposing to construct a new northbound
right-turn lane.
Then driveway six is also a full
access driveway, and for five and six we are
proposing to restripe the existing flush median
to provide dedicated left-turn lanes for both
driveway five and driveway six.
A traffic study was submitted to
IDOT; we are awaiting comments from them.
We do have some modifications along
U .S . 34; for instance, the driveway at -- Costco
driveway four that a ligns with Tuma Road, that

We are proposing to retime the
traffic signal at Countryside and U .S . 34, and
then make some minor improvements at McHugh and
U .S . 34 for the southbound left-turn lane.
I will hand it back over to Larry.
MR. DZIURDZIC: Thanks, Peter. Risa is
calling in, and I would like Risa, our --
Costco's architect for this project, to describe
the architecture and character of the building.
Risa?
RISA YUKI,
having been first duly sworn, thereupon testified
as follows:
MS. YUKI: Thanks, Larry. Good evening.
As Larry mentioned, my name is Risa Yuki. I am
with M G 2 out of Seattle, Washington.
I just wanted to share today that
our focus in the design of this building was
really to prepare something that was modern and
that was going to be timeless in design, but then
also using different types of materials that are
cohesive that were going to offer, you know, a
variety in the design using different materials,

colors and textures, and then different
articulation, but still trying to maintain a
sustainable palette.
If we want to start with the
material board, one is because when we render
these drawings we kind of do it in a soft light
and it doesn't show the true colors, so the
materials will help share that.
What we are looking at today is this
is the straight-on view of the entry canopy. I
like this view because it also shows the east
side of the materials on the right side of the
building, and then on the left side of the page
is the south side of the elevation facing the
parking lot to the south.
What we are showing here is we are
going to start from the kind of bottom left side
as we are proposing the architectural box rib
metal panel, and that's pointing to kind of that
top band of the entry canopy, and then right
below that it's held up by smoothface masonry
columns in a dark umber, so as you can see, the
block is going to be a little bit darker so it's
going to provide good contrast to the overall

palette, and then tie in to kind of the trim
color, that's made of material medium bronze.
That middle color there that's
identified as the architectural insulated metal
panel that's pointing up to the entry canopy
sign, that area, that's an insulated metal panel
that has a textured finish, so it's similar to
like a stucco finish on the building.
Both the -- I just wanted to share
that both the box rib panel as well as this
insulated metal panel, as well as the building's
structure, is comprised of 80 percent recycled
material, and then that insulation is 50 percent
recycled material, and they all provide really
great R value reducing our HVAC load, so one of
the reasons why we are strongly proposing these
materials.
Okay. Can we switch to the next
elevations? Thank you.
All right. So I will just kind of
maybe start our focus on the top elevation, which
is the south elevation. Thank you. Okay. So
kind of starting from the left side, so we have a
recessed dock, and then just to the right of that

we have our sign panel and back area with the
insulated architectural textured panel, so that's
that stucco finish, and then it has a strong high
base of CMU, the smoothface CMU right below that.
And then as you edge to the right we
have proposed a three-column trellis element, and
this is to provide a little bit of a softer
transition to the entry canopy, but also kind of
propose something that's a little bit 3 D that
protrudes out and then has some good shadowing,
and then it heads over into the entry canopy that
we were just showing on the screen previously.
So on the next elevation is the
slide that's also kind of the more pedestrian
facing side, so just wanted to talk a little bit
about this.
This is the tire center side which
has the overhead doors similar to the overhead
canopy, so what we have done is brought in the
CMU columns as well and then that insulated panel
right above that.
And then the other two elevations,
we wanted to make sure that we focused and we
carried those materials in vertical and

horizontal articulation throughout the entire
building.
One of the things I did want to
mention was that in the EDC meeting that we had
yesterday evening there was some comment or some
comments raised relative to the amount of masonry
that we were proposing, so, you know, the team
talked about that yesterday evening and we agreed
that introducing a little bit more masonry on the
two pedestrian sides of the building, so the
south and east elevation, would definitely
improve the design.
So as you can see here, so if you
look at the -- sorry, the third elevation, which
is the north elevation, you can see where the
masonry is lower as originally proposed, so what
we have done here is now we have raised the lower
masonry raised up to four feet so that it had
more impact and significance on the building.
As Larry had shown I think in a few
slides back, the fuel facility carries all the
same materials, still has the box rib metal panel
on fascia and then also the smoothface CMU
column, so, you know, this is a line that's

cohesive to the building as well.
That's it unless -- and then the
next few slides are just other prospective views
of the building.
MR. DZIURDZIC: Risa, can you talk a
little bit more about the floor plan? We have a
slide -- Other direction. Right there.
MS. YUKI: Sure. Okay. So I just
wanted to share, related to the floor, so as we
mentioned earlier when we were looking at the
site plan, Costco has one entrance and exit into
the building, which is the bottom right-hand
corner of the page here, but as you can see with
inside the building, and if you have -- you know,
you've been to Costco before, the interior, it's
really important for the interior maneuverability
to be very straightforward within the building,
so it renders it so that we can't really
articulate the building as much, so -- but what
this is sharing is that where the receiving dock
is, it's recessed, so it is pushed back so that
it is not coming out to the front, and where the
entry canopy is, you can see how it is prominent,
you know, and it creates the central focus to the

site.
Off to the left side is just some
mechanical portions of the building, and that
creates a little bit of a recess as well, but
that's all within the same building footprint.
MR. DZIURDZIC: Great. Thanks, Risa.
MS. YUKI: Thanks.
MR. DZIURDZIC: I wanted to point out a
couple -- an item I missed on the site plan,
pedestrian connections, so I wonder if we could
flip to the site plan.
So Costco -- well, actually, that's
fine. So we are connecting at minor, at the
intersection there, we are bringing a sidewalk in
at that intersection down to the Costco parking
lot at the northeast corner there.
We also have a sidewalk connection
from the entrance to the building south to
Veterans Parkway and it ties into the bike path.
That essentially concludes our
presentation tonight. We do have our civil
engineer and our landscape architect and we do
have some additional slides, but I felt in
everyone's interest of time tonight, we could go

through some civil engineering, we could answer
questions at this time, we could --
CHAIRMAN VINYARD: Why don't you go
through it just for transparency --
MR. DZIURDZIC: Okay.
CHAIRMAN VINYARD: -- if you don't mind.
MR. DZIURDZIC: Sure. Dan Free, our
civil engineer, has been designing the site for
several months, and more than that. Thanks, Dan.
DAN FREE,
having been first duly sworn, thereupon testified
as follows:
MR. FREE: Hi. My name is Dan Free with
V 3 companies, 732 5 Janes Avenue in Woodridge.
So, yeah, like Larry said, we have
been looking at this site for a few months. We
have been working on the engineering for it and
looking at -- you know, it really is a fairly
simple site from an engineering standpoint.
The site was fairly flat, so we
actually had an opportunity to purchase detention
credits and the detention pond that exists over
here; however, from an earthwork balancing
position, because the site was actually too flat,

it worked to be able to excavate additional
material and have a pond on-site to be able to
raise up the site because it was too flat.
The sanitary sewer and water main,
the utilities, surround the site within
Countryside Parkway and within McHugh, so we are
picking up the utilities and those roadways and
then also there is kind of a stub left in the
intersection of Countryside and 34 and McHugh and
34 for the water main and we are going to be
extending the water main along Veterans Parkway
in order to complete that loop that the city
intended.
And then from a stormwater
perspective, the outlots are going to be included
in all the stormwater and storm sewer design to
be able to convey, assuming that there is going
to be a development in the future on those outlot
and the additional impervious area from the
employee parking expansion as well as the gas
station expansion, all that is included in the
calculations for the stormwater pond as well as
the storm sewer to convey all that to the
detention pond, and we are currently working on

the final detail drawings for that and expecting
to submit for permit within a couple weeks here.
CHAIRMAN VINYARD: Very good.
MR. FREE: There is not too much -- I
don't know if there is too much else left to say.
I will mention that the design for the pond is
expected to be dry basin, so it will be -- it
won't hold water and it will -- so it will just
during rain events have water in it and then
drain down, and it will be planted with a variety
of native grasses and flowers, and I think that's
good.
MR. DZIURDZIC: That's good. Thank you.
CHAIRMAN VINYARD: Thank you.
MR. DZIURDZIC: Thank you, Dan. Amanda,

said, our detention basin, we are working through
our naturalized planting design. With our final
design we will be clustering the trees around the
pond to create some.
Nice views because we expect once
established it will look really nice with the
native plantings.
Throughout the site and on the
parking lot island we have canopy trees and
shrubs planted. Then all the perimeter
landscaping on Countryside Parkway we have street
trees and we have shrubs and ornamental glasses
surrounding the perimeter parking lot.
Let's see. Around the fuel area we
have tried to cluster evergreen trees and canopy
trees around like most of the heavily viewed
areas from Veterans Parkway and McHugh, and so
those will look really nice once established.
Then going around to the foundation
landscape, there is a trellis at the front of the
building with some foundation landscape beds. I
don't know, did we see a view of that in the
images? I can't remember if there was one. But
it will be a nice metal-looking trellis to

enhance the facade.
And then we have a large landscape
bed that will distract from the loading dock from
McHugh and look really nice and enhance the
facade of the building.
I think that's all really I have for
landscaping, pretty straightforward. We are
screening a lot and it will look really nice once
established.
MR. DZIURDZIC: Great.
CHAIRMAN VINYARD: Thank you.
MR. DZIURDZIC: Thank you. Our next
slide is a final plat of subdivision. As I
mentioned, it's a three-lot subdivision; two lots
along Veterans for future commercial and then
Costco and the fuel facility are located on lot
one, and we are providing public and drainage
utility easements for all public -- for
dedication for all public utilities. That's the
final plat.
Our next slide is the site lighting.
As I mentioned, we are asking for a deviation for
the height of the pole light. This is Costco's
standard.

Given the size of the parking lot,
we do -- we would like to see that 36-foot
six inches for that even distribution for our
foot candles and photometrics, and it is a flat
lens L E D , of course, facing downward.
After our site lighting I believe
that concludes our presentations, so we went
through all our slides tonight.
I am available for questions, as
well as Steve and our consultants online, so we
would be happy to answer any questions you have.
CHAIRMAN VINYARD: Very good.
MR. DZIURDZIC: Thank you.
CHAIRMAN VINYARD: Thank you. All
right. Is there anyone present who wishes to
speak in favor or opposition of this request?
This would be your one time that you as the
public have an opportunity to express your
concerns or your approval of the plan.
Please.

Gawlik. I am actually the president of the
Colonies Homeowner's Association. We are about
230 units strong.
I can say after this had been
announced that probably to the home they are
going to welcome Costco here given the fact that
you have Costco's , what, on 7 5 th and St. Charles
Road, so it put a lot of smiles on the face when
this was announced, so it is welcome.
I just have two thoughts, and one is
as far as regarding parking, it looks like you
are looking to increase the number of parking
spaces from the ordinance.
Has there also been thought as far
as increasing or at least making sure that we
have the proper ratio for handicapped parking?
Because I can tell you at the two locations now,
it is extremely hard to find handicapped parking
the way it exists.
Maybe that could be a consideration
there as far as increasing the number of
handicapped parking around there, because we have
a lot of seniors around this community and it
would be welcomed if it would be -- have some

additional parking.
Also, this may be premature, but
looking at the prints here, you've got your entry
four coming in off of Veterans Parkway and you
have your two outlots.
It may not be, you know, proper at
this point, but is there thought about maybe
having an access road, because as those lots
become filled with retail, I think, you know, you
are also looking to put two lights in between
there.
That additional ingress and egress I
think is really going to create some havoc
regarding people both east and west going down
Veterans Parkway, so I don't know if that might
be a thought as far as even though there is
nothing proposed for that, but at least looking
at some restrictions so that in the future that
may not become a problem as far as the traffic is
concerned, the more ingress and egress among
Veterans.
Thank you very much.

hearing me. My name is Jeff Burke. I am a
resident of Prairie Meadows, due north of the
site.
My biggest concern is traffic along
McHugh, which runs on the west side of our
subdivision. I was just wondering if there has
been consideration -- and I don't know whose
responsibility it would be, but I see Kennedy and
McHugh becoming significantly busier, and I was
wondering if we are looking at traffic control
devices at McHugh and Kennedy and also at McHugh
and Marketview? Marketview.
That's all I am concerned with.
Thank you very much.

also live in the Prairie Meadows neighborhood
just right over here, and I have been a resident
of Yorkville for 19 years and I -- thanks for
this time to discuss my concerns with Costco's
plan.
Obviously I recognize the potential
for tax and commercial growth opportunities that
a Costco will bring to Yorkville and I know that
the community values the safe and small community
we have and the recreation that's easily
accessible within our community.
Taking from Yorkville's
Comprehensive Plan, community stakeholders regard
Yorkville's semi-rural and small-town character
as an asset that should be maintained and
preserved while balancing new residential growth
and retail and commercial development that serves
the needs of our residents.
There are several aspects of the
Costco's plan that I feel aren't consistent with
the features of our community that make it such a
great place to live.
I have concerns about the special
use permit and development standard deviations

requested by Costco, traffic mitigation issues,
contradictions between Costco's plan and
Yorkville's Comprehensive Plan, as well as the
safety and health of the community, so I will
outline those in some detail.
My first concerns are deviations
from Code 10-5 -1 , outlined in Section 6 of
Costco's application for PUD agreement amendment,
special use permit and final plat approvals.
So there is two that I would like to
review. One is the maximum allowed stalls, which
the code is 387 stalls. As it was explained,
Costco wants to have initial parking of 3 56, in
the future 9 8 0 , so that's two and a half times
the maximum allowed for what this space was
originally intended and too much of a deviation
for this type of commercial space.
My concerns are related to the
increase in traffic from customers and the
accompanying gas station due to a large number of
cars into this relatively small area, and I will
talk a little bit more about my traffic concerns
later.
But the second concern related to

the deviation to code 10-5 -1 is the deviation for
E V charging stations. The current code is any
parking with 50 or more parking spaces shall
install the infrastructure required to
accommodate a minimum of one E V charging station
for every 50 parking spaces, so for the initial
856 parking stalls, that's 17 E V stations.
Costco states that based on their
information that a small number of members are
owners of electric vehicles. I would argue that
17 is probably a small number of their members.
Furthermore, the number of electric
vehicles is increasing and can only increase if
the infrastructure is implemented, such as
charging stations.
I understand that Costco benefits by
selling gasoline, but it's environmentally
irresponsible and bad for Yorkville and Illinois
to allow this exemption.
In September of 2023 the Illinois
Department of Transportation updated its Illinois
Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Deployment Plan,
which details the steps the state has taken over
the past year to implement the National Electric

Vehicle Infrastructure Program and provide
convenient, accessible, reliable and equitable
electrical vehicle charging stations throughout
the state.
The plan is a critical component of
achieving the state's vision of becoming a leader
in manufacturing and deploying E V 's , with a one
million electric vehicle target in the state by
2030, so Costco's position is contradictory to
the state's vision and I think that deviation
should be denied.
Moving on to the application for
special use for the gasoline service station from
the current zoning classification of B -3 General
Purpose PUD is another major concern.
As was explained, it's Costco's plan
that 6 0 to 65 percent of their members visiting
the warehouse will also purchase gasoline during
the same site visit.
There is no plan in the application
at least to address the health, safety and
comfort of the public community, it just states
that there will not be a danger without providing
information to support their statement, and I

have a different perspective.
The northwest corner is only
0 .2 miles from a baseball field where families
park their cars for their children to play on the
field in a park. People ride their bikes. The
local cross country teams and track teams run in
that area around where the Costco would be in the
mornings, people walk their dogs around that
area. There is a bike path on Veterans Parkway
that people use to ride in a safe area that will
be right in front of the Costco.
So those people that use the bike
path, run, walk the dogs, that will be adversely
affected, along with the concern of increased
traffic on McHugh near a recreational park.
Also on this application there is a
requirement for Costco to state how adequate
measures have been or will be taken to provide
ingress and egress so designed to minimize
traffic congestion, and within that statement it
says -- it does say about the left turning lane
modification plan for McHugh Road, but it also
says there will be no traffic impact to Veterans
Road or Countryside Parkway.

I don't really understand how that
could be. There is going to be a thousand --
almost a thousand parking spaces and people
coming in and out of there, so I don't understand
how there can be no traffic impacts to Veterans
road or Countryside Parkway. Traffic is
definitely a big concern.
Also within the special use it
states there is -- it's asked of the applicant,
in this case, Costco, to state how the proposed
special use is not contrary to the City's adopted
Comprehensive Plan.
There is many areas where this plan
is contradictory to the plan as laid out in the
Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan shows
that there is an over-supply of gas stations;
therefore, there is no need for another fuel
facility, particularly in that immediate area.
There is already three gas stations within
0 .6 miles of the Costco proposed site.
The City's Comprehensive Plan
discusses the need for a mid-size specialty and
regional grocery south of downtown Yorkville.
Costco is none of these; it's neither regional or

mid-size, and the location obviously is not on
the south side of town.
I have outlined my concerns and
counter-arguments to Costco's positions and their
requests for deviations to codes and exemptions
to current zoning classification, and, as I said,
I understand there's benefits and there's
residents obviously that would like to have the
proximity of a Costco, but I feel like there are
some costs to the community by doing this,
especially in that location, so I -- you know, I
would like it to be considered potentially a
different location where we could still have a
Costco and provide tax revenue and the growth
potential to Yorkville.
If that's not an option, then my
specific requests are to not grant the extra
parking spaces, at least not to a level of two
and a half times, which is excessive for that
space, don't allow any exemption to the electric
vehicle charging stations, don't allow the fuel
facility or gas station, only the warehouse
store.
That would reduce the personal

vehicle traffic and truck traffic. It would take
away a lot of the traffic on McHugh Road, which
is the one that has the access road to the gas
station, and keep the community safer around that
area.
And any exemptions given to Costco,
make sure that there is conditions to mitigate
traffic issues as well as any other issues
detrimental to the surrounding community.
Thank you for your time and
attention, and I appreciate the opportunity to
present these concerns.

JENNY LUNN,
having been first duly sworn, thereupon testified
as follows:
MS. LUNN: So I am a little country
bumpkin, I grew up here in Kendall County. I am
58 years old, and in my lifetime I moved onto
five different farms.
I personally think that Costco is
the perfect place for that 33-acre parcel. In my
opinion -- I shop at Costco all the time. If you
were to go to Naperville, now that is congestion.
To see what you presented tonight,
to have several different entries in and out of
that property, 33 acres -- I mean, I grew up on
farms and 33 acres is a large span, folks. It's
probably more than where I live in Countryside.
I know I have only lived here in
Yorkville for 35 years, so I can clearly remember
when we had nothing but four stop signs at 34 and
47.
In my opinion, I feel that you
people have done one heck of a job in planning

for the future and the growth.
I feel we need this big opportunity
with Costco and I 've got a lot of people on the
same page, so I want to say thank you, and I
can't wait until the store opens.
CHAIRMAN VINYARD: Thank you. Next

JOHN JOYCE,
having been first duly sworn, thereupon testified
as follows:
MR. JOYCE: My name is John Joyce. I
live in Autumn Creek subdivision. Overall,
really impressed with everything.
Top two concerns are definitely the
traffic going in and out, mainly the, let's say,
cross -- if you have to cross a lane to get into
any of the entrances, especially off of 34 where
people go pretty fast. That's my top concern
there.
And then I would like clarification
for the E V charging. Is the requirement -- Is
there a specific requirement for fast chargers,
slow chargers or just that there is chargers?

MS. NOBLE: Sure. It's just that they
provide the infrastructure for chargers. That's
it.
MR. JOYCE: Okay. Because, I mean, when
I go to the other Costco, it's packed with E V
chargers -- or with E V vehicles, and, I mean, 17
even level two chargers, that's -- that would be
beneficial to the area and that would be really
beneficial to Costco, too. That's the only thing
that I would prefer to see not agreed to, but,
you know, I understand it.
I really appreciate the plan,
especially the trees, the landscaping, especially
all the trees we lost in the 2019 microburst, so
that's it.

I have been a resident of Yorkville for the past
20 or so years, went to Yorkville High School.
I also saw plenty of growth
throughout Yorkville. I remember when there
wasn't a Jewel here, I remember plenty of things,
and seeing the growth has been a mazing.
I think having Costco here would
also be an amazing point of growth. I also want
to highlight a point of failure to thrive and
failure to grow, especially for a town like
Yorkville, being on the precipice of a place like
Oswego, and then just right after us, a place
like Plano, so a city like Yorkville, we have a
lot of different places coming together.
We are quite a crossroads. We have
a lot of people coming from the west, coming from
the east that are wanting to see Yorkville grow,
of course.
Now, I like I said, I want to focus
specifically on failure to thrive and failure to
grow for the community. For the growth that this
project presents for the City of Yorkville,
right, it would bring for the community taxes,
revenue, jobs, plenty of opportunity for

Yorkville to -- especially Yorkville citizens to
save money on things like gas, on things like
food for their families, especially those who may
be struggling a little bit right now.
I think everybody is feeling the
impacts of inflation and a city like Yorkville
could appreciate this growth.
Now, like I said, vital to consider
the impact of failure, so especially in a vacant
lot that it has been for the past 20 years or so,
being able to see that, I think we need to
anticipate to make up the loss in the case that
this doesn't pass, so in the case that Costco
doesn't come through and we don't see this
growth, there is a large opportunity for no
growth to happen, and no growth means possible
higher taxes, it means a more difficult life in
Yorkville that I feel like a lot of people
especially here cannot afford, and, I mean, I am
a Gen Z , I am growing up in a town like
Yorkville, I am growing up in the Midwest. It's
difficult for me, I can only imagine it's
difficult for everybody else.
I know I would love to see a Costco

here and I don't want to see anything like a
light pole or an E V charging station prevent
something like a major growth like this to
prevent my wallet from getting drained from large
and hefty price tags and heavy costs of gas and
higher costs of taxes in places like Kendall
County.
These are things that we need to
consider, especially if we are considering
denying a motion like this. Denying the growth
for Kendall County residents would be further
detrimental than inconvenient traffic.

After you guys agreed after the EDC meeting, what
is the current percentage of masonry that you are

are just under 16 percent.
CHAIRMAN VINYARD: And that's after the
increase in height?
MR. DZIURDZIC: After the increase on
the south and east elevations, correct.
CHAIRMAN VINYARD: Okay. All right.
And then my other question is, you touched on
this before, but my concern with the fuel station
is I 've gotten fuel at Costco, I 've seen how some
lines can be.

PLEASE STATE HOW ADEQUATE UTILITIES, ACCESS ROADS, DRAINAGE OR OTHER NECESSARY FACILITIES HAVE BEEN OR ARE BEING PROVIDED:
The proposed fuel facility will not endanger the public health, safety, morals, comfort or general welfare of any portion of the
community. The fuel facility has been designed to provide a safe environment for the residents of the City of Yorkville and
surrounding communities, as well as Costco's members and employees. The fuel facility will meet applicable Federal, State and
local codes for fire access, pedestrian and vehicular accessibility; fuel truck movements and gas operations. Costco will maintain
the fuel facilities appearance , provide State required maintenance, which includes equipment and tank testing and monitoring
inspections. The fuel facility, canopy, paving, lighting, and fuel dispensers will be designed to State and all applicable zoning
and development regulations.
The proposed fuel facility will have no adverse impact(s) on the current use or enjoyment of nearby properties in the immediate
area. The Property is zoned General Business District and the nearby zoning is predominately zoned commercial and as such ,
the requested special use is compatible with nearby current and future land uses. The fuel facility plan allows for generous
setbacks, and landscaping along Veteran's Parkway and McHugh Road. The requested Special Use will not be injurious to other
nearby property owners as the design, arrangement, land use intensity, scale and character is and will be compatible to nearby
land uses and future developments.
There is no indication that the fuel facility will diminish or impair property values within the immediate commercial area or the
community .
The fuel facility will not impede the orderly development and improvement of the surrounding property for uses permitted in
the district as the proposed land use will encourage and promote orderly development in the area. Fuel facilities are typically
located in the vicinity of a major transportation system and permitted as a special use in most commercial and business zoned
districts. The proposed land use is compatible with existing land uses and is permitted as a special use in the B-3, General
Business District.
The development of the Costco warehouse and fuel facility will serve as the catalyst promoting and encouraging future
development in the immediate area.
The proposed fuel facility has been carefully planned to be accessible by multiple access points from McHugh Road, Veteran's
Parkway and Countryside Parkway. Access directly to the fuel facility will be an efficient traffic movement with adequate queue
to serve each fueling position. Drainage is designed to keep pavement areas safe and properly conveyed to an onsite storm
water basin. Utilities such as water, sanitary sewer, electric and storm are available to effectively serve the fuel facility. The
Property will be illuminated for safe vehicular and pedestrian travel.
