with Property Index Numbers 05-05-400-050 and 05-04-300-031.
Section 3. That the Planning and Zoning Commission made the following findings of fact:
i. The variance is needed to clearly show all fuel products Applicant shall provide,
and to provide Applicant large enough signs so that customers may safely view the
information on therm from the road.
ii. That, due to the Applicant having property frontage on both IL 47 and IL 71, two
signs is necessary to adequately advertise product, and that a larger sign is
necessary to list all fuel products Applicant offers.
In. The conditions necessitating this variance have not been caused by a person with
an interest in the Subject Property, as the State of Illinois requires Applicant to
advertise all fuel products they offer, and as other similar uses have larger signs
Ordinance No. 2025-42

advertising their product, leading to a potential competitive disadvantage for
Applicant.
iv. The requested variance will not be injurious to the public welfare or other property
or improvements in the area where the Subject Property is located, as other similar
uses in the area have larger signs.
V. The proposed variance will not impair an adequate supply of light and air to
adjacent property, or substantially increase congestion in public streets, as the
variance will allow customers on the roadway to more easily see Applicant's
products and pricing more easily from the road.
vi. The proposed variation for the monument sign is consistent with official
comprehensive plan and other development standards and policies of the city. The
businesses near the site is consistent with our proposal and the request does not veer
away from the surrounding area in nature and therefore recommend the City
Council grant the requested variation.
Section 4. That a variation pursuant to Section 10-6-6 of the UDO to permit Applicant to
erect two signs on the Subject Property, one being along IL Route 47 and the other along IL Route
71, with each sign having a maximum sign area of 62 square feet.
Section 5. That the signs shall be constructed, operated, and maintained in accordance with
the requirements of the Yorkville City Code and generally located as shown on the attached

A, and Horizontal Monument Sign Plan, dated April 3, 2025, and attached hereto as Exhibit B.
Section 6. That this Ordinance shall be in full force and effect upon its passage, approval
and publication as provided by law.
