1. EDC 2008 -16 Monthly Building Permit Report for March 2008
Travis Miller reported 6 single family permits were issued in March with April showing
22 permits. Miscellaneous permits increased greatly with 104 being issued. No further
action.
2. PC 2007 -39 Hattner Trust — Annexation and Zoning Request
The petitioner has agreed to all the staff comments according to Travis Miller and he
noted that three separate land plan options were submitted. Specific provisions were
included for Aux Sable Creek and bridge crossings, a trail plan and underground wiring
along Rt. 47.
Mr. Golinski asked if the minimum 12,000 square foot provision should be included as
part of the R2 zoning, due to possible future requests for smaller lots. It was decided it
could be included in the PUD.
This request moves forward to City Council on May 27.

3. PC 2007 -42 Jake Land Group (The Shoppes South of the Fox/Windmill
Farms) –Annexation, Zoning and Concept PUD Request
A portion of this property is already annexed and zoned B3 according to Miller. Two
concept plans were submitted and PUD zoning was approved by the Plan Commission
with a reference for Option #1.
p p
A previous full access spacing concern at Rt. 71 and 126 was solved by the petitioner
with plans for dual turn lanes. It was noted that IDOT prefers 1000 feet from a major
intersection to the full access point —the current spacing is 740 feet.
Attorney Kramer said there is interest from some end users as well as from an aging F'
facility. Other possible uses were discussed briefly.
It was noted that economic incentives might be granted if the improvements were above
and beyond the usual.
This will move to the May 27 City Council meeting.
4. EDC 2008 -17 Lincoln Prairie –Zoning Ordinance
Alderman Golinski said that a previous Council had agreed to change the zoning to M2,
but no ordinance had been passed. A special use ordinance did get approved according
to Travis Miller. The actual agreement was made in 2005 and one of the lots is now
moving forward with development.
It was noted the EPA regulations are in place regarding the asphalt plant to be developed.
There was also a brief discussion regarding the trucks that will carry asphalt components.
This will move forward to City Council consent agenda.
Old Business:
L PC 2008 -04 Yorkville Town Center (Raycorp) –PUD Amendment & Rezoning
Request
Travis Miller stated that the petitioner has agreed to some of the staff comments and he
had prepared a revised report. The zoning classification has been changed to PUD and
some economic incentives remain.
Bob Kenny, Raycorp Attorney, stated they would not begin the development until they
have end users, so he requested that they not be bound by any time constraints the City
might have. They need the ability to phase this project, since it will be market- driven.
Miller stated there is no time restriction for the concept PUD, however, there would be j
between the preliminary and the final plat. Kenney said this could be an issue with the
current market and asked for some concessions and to be a participant in the phasing.
Alderman Besco asked how time extensions might affect economic incentives. The long -
term goal according to Kenney, is to build the concept plan even if incentives are no
longer available.

Tom Rayburn of Raycorp said the first two phases of the development would be the Rt.
71 access and the stormwater detention.
One of the main reasons this item was brought before committee was to discuss the
economic incentives and also the logistic issues so the agreement complies with the PUD
ordinance.
Mr. Rayburn stated he has a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan on file and he is in
compliance. He requested this issue be stricken from the Annexation Agreement because
he stated he is not causing any drainage issues.
Signage, bond amounts, fees and the occupancy permit were also discussed.
This moves forward to the May 13 City Council meeting.
2. EDC 2007 -38 Sign Ordinance Update
Charlie Wunder discussed the changes that have been made including 2 significant ones:
1. Wall signs can be installed on walls facing public right -of -way
2. Allowing additional signage on corner lots
Clarifications will be made to the verbage "adjacent to right -of- way ".
Wunder said that flashing signs and electronic message boards have been prohibited in
the past, however, the business community has expressed interest. Those types are now
included in the ordinance update, but the message must be displayed for a certain time.
Travis Miller noted a request from the new Rush - Copley facility for an LED
"Open /Closed" sign. Limiting the luminosity was also discussed.
Alderman Besco suggested the committee should gather input from sign companies
before moving forward with this ordinance. Cheryl Grate, a sign company employee,
will be invited to attend the next EDC meeting for further discussion.
3. EDC 2008 -06 Millbrook Boundary Agreement — Discussion
The Millbrook Village President recently sent an email inquiring about the status of this
agreement, so this item was placed back on the agenda. Alderman Besco commented that
he had previously asked to kill this item in committee partially because Millbrook is not
close to Yorkville boundaries.
A future City boundary of Rt. 52 was suggested, however, Yorkville must be sensitive to
Platteville's future plans since they hope to maintain a rural nature. Travis presented a
draft of a meeting agenda for a meeting with Platteville and Joe Besco stated he would
like to take the lead on any such meeting. A possible May 29 meeting was suggested
and Travis will coordinate.
Additional Business:
Joe Besco suggested a change of meeting nights from Thursday to the first Tuesday of
the month beginning in July.
