PC 99 -11 COURTHOUSE SOUARE - PRELIMINARY PLAN REVISIONS
Mr. Sheridan began stating that the new drawings would show that he has moved the office
building to the south and it shows the parking spaces 395 feet from the north property line. Mr.
Sheridan stated he is meeting all of the requirements of the ordinance which he doesn't have any
problem with, he will move the retail area to 400 feet of the north property line and allow for 45
foot setbacks.
Chairman Sticka stated that he has not objections to this plan, that Mr. Sheridan has added some
additional parking with less pavement. He has submitted the first draft of the annexation
agreement and has included everything asked for by Attorney Sullivan on behalf of the
Cannonball Trail residents. He has put the uses in the affirmative and taken out those they have
agreed not to use.
Chairman Sticka asked where the "Convenience Store" was on the list.
Mr. Sheridan stated that this was a term not in use at the time this list zoning was established.
Chairman Sticka stated that "Grocery Store" is probably about the same thing.
Mayor Prochaska stated they should review the P.U.D. agreement.
Mr. Sheridan stated he had modeled this after one drafted Attorney Kramer outlining the
annexation, zoning to Office P.U.D. with Limited Business uses.
Chairman Sticka asked about the line to divide the retail from the office at 400 feet from the
north property line.
Mr. Sheridan stated it was on the drawings. Mr. Sheridan asked for the City's help in getting
approval; from YBSD, and added that he understood that getting water was not a problem.

EDC - 7/18/2000
Chairman Sticka asked about a request for a liquor license.
Mayor Prochaska stated that speaking as the Liquor Commissioner, he would never put anything
about a liquor license in a P.U.D., it is not an appropriate thing to do. This is not to say you
won't get one, but no mention in the agreement.
Mr. Sheridan stated he doesn't even know if one is available.
Mayor Prochaska stated this is another issue. In regard to water there is not guarantee of any
quantity, simply that water is available at the time of the agreement. In regard to signs, on page 4
of the agreement draft it states signs would meet the sign ordinance.
Mr. Sheridan stated he wants a corner sign for listing all of the businesses located there.
Chairman Sticka stated that short of a compelling reason he would be expected to stay within the
sign ordinance requirements, and asked if there were specifics for the request.
Mr. Sheridan stated only that he was sure we all wanted business there and that we all want those
businesses to succeed.
Mayor Prochaska stated this is based on the size of the business and we stand by the ordinance.
Chairman Sticka stated this wouldn't be incorporated into the P.U.D.
Mayor Prochaska stated and the sign at the street. You can always apply for a variance.
Mr. Sheridan stated in regard to the hours of operation, he stated reasonable and asked that the
hours not be constrained.
Alderwoman Burd asked if that was a common item to constrain.
i
Mayor Prochaska stated the Cannonball residents have suggested 10:00 P.M., the City has no
standard.
Alderman Sowinski stated this depends on the type of business.
Chairman Sticka stated that for liquor sales the hours are by State Statute. and City Ordinance.
Mayor Prochaska stated there shouldn't be any hours of business restriction.
Chairman Sticka asked if the Shell was open 24 hours.
Mayor Prochaska stated he thought it was.

Mr. Sheridan stated that 12:00 P.M. He just asks that the City doesn't restrict the business need.
Also there will be no lights all night except the security lights.
Chairman Sticka stated the detention is not on the property line, and the location is determined
by the elevation of the land.
Nanninga stated some landscaping is required around the detention area and on the lot lines as a
buffer. Generally 20 feet, but we allowed 10 feet for Shell, but with a heavy buffer.
Mr. Sheridan stated they have stated that they would follow the Landscape Ordinance and leave
the trees on the lot line areas. They will preserve what is there.
Chairman Sticka asked how we would know if we have included all the uses that should be
included, all that would be allowable in "O" zoning. How do you decide what to put on the list.
Ms. Katterman stated that from her past experiences the City goes by the most protection, listing
only the uses not permitted. Then when one comes up it is reviewed.
Mayor Prochaska stated any use not permitted would come to the City Council for consideration.
Chairman Sticka stated fro instance the list states typewriter repair, but not computer repair.
Mr. Sheridan stated we can add computer software store.
Mayor Prochaska stated we need to come up with a procedure to handle this. The next EDC
should list zoning update regarding uses.

agreement between them. Mr. Sheridan only has to comply with what is required of him for this
parcel.
Chairman Sticka asked if this was ready for COW, with the Cannonball residents still to review a
new draft of the allowable uses.

On behalf of Inland, the petitioner, Ed Jonus stated that Joe Wywrot has reviewed this and his
comments have been incorporated into this drawing. He has asked for a 10 foot easement. Mr.

The park serves a s a buffer. The park is identified as lot #16 and will be dedicated to the City of
Yorkville. Mr. Wywrot has requested that on the Engineer's Certificate and Land Improvements
that it state that they do not install improvements until we have a Final Plat. Mr. Jonus will work
this out with Mr. Wywrot.
