Public Hearing: Requested by Petitioners
1. PC 2007 -39, Hattner Trust #1, petitioner, has filed an application with the
United City of Yorkville, Kendall County, Illinois, requesting annexation and
zoning from Kendall County A -1 Agriculture to the United City of Yorkville B -3
Service Business zoning for approximately 28 acres, 14 acres of R -2 Multi -
Family zoning and 51 acres of R -1 Single Family zoning.
Attorney Dan Kramer was present on behalf of the petitioner and asked that the Hearing
be opened and then continued until the next meeting. He stated they did not have a Plan
Council recommendation yet, but all necessary notices have been published.
A motion was made by Holdiman and seconded by Adams to open the Hearing. It was
approved unanimously by voice vote. There was no one else present who wished to

speak regarding this petition. Jones then moved and Holdiman seconded to continue the
Hearing until February 13, 2008. Approved on a voice vote.
New Business:
1. PC 2007 -27 Lincoln Prairie
This item had been tabled at the December 12, 2007 Plan Commission meeting.
Travis Miller summarized the decisions from the last meeting and said that the
preliminary plan had been approved at the December meeting. The final plan was tabled
due to additional requests from the engineer. Among those requests was a field tile
survey —now completed. Other information requested has now been received according
to a January Bch memo from Bill Dunn.
Miller said there is still concern regarding the impact of stormwater on adjoining
properties after it enters field.tiles. He said the Illinois Drainage Law governs what an
owner can do with a property and the impact on other properties. In Mr. Dunn's memo,
he suggests obtaining written consent from adjoining property owners regarding the
alternative stormwater design solution. City Attorney Kathy Orr will render an opinion
on this suggestion.
According to Miller, although the plan is consistent with the zoning and preliminary
annexation, the issue is the temporary alternative stormwater management during the first
phase of the project, in lot 2 and 3 in the north central part of the property. The
temporary solution is to transfer water to an area in the southern portion of the property
instead of to the facility. Lindblom commented that the legality of the stormwater issue
is beyond the authority and expertise of the Plan Commission. Baker also expressed
concern regarding the temporary water solution and the ability to monitor the progress
without it becoming lost.
After discussion, Miller suggested a positive recommendation subject to the staff report,
legal opinion and resolution of the engineering issues. He is confident with the plat and
that the alternative stormwater solution is environmentally sound. Miller added that the
overflow would only be used until the site develops. Jones was concerned about possible
legal challenges for the Plan Commission. Concerns over potential fuel spills and
chemicals at the site, were raised by Schillinger.
John Philipchuck, Attorney, said there are two triggers in this project:
1. Construction of public road (part of overflow area)
2. Attempt to secure easement across the adjoining properties, talks have begun with
property owners
Page 3 of 4
An exhibit showing the temporary storage area was displayed by Eric Granrud of the
SEC Group. Schillinger questioned if there was any special filtering since chemicals will
be used. A bio -swale and a gravel- covered surface with catch basins will be constructed.
All resulting sediments will flow to a wet pond. A grease and oil interceptor will be
constructed for the truck wash area. Granrud told the Commission members that the
operator of this plant has not had a violation in over 20 years at their Mt. Prospect
facility.
Sue Hanson, a property owner at Faxon and Eldamain expressed concern regarding
where the permanent drainage will go. She said there is an extremely low area on her
property north to Menards' where water collected last spring. The property will drain to
the east across Eldamain according to Granrud. She also had concerns about her well and
increased traffic. Granrud said the 14 -acre site of this proposed facility will also have a
well and septic and all contaminants will be contained under very rigorous standards.
Alderwoman Robyn Sutcliff asked if the IDNR had been contacted since the overflow of
the stormwater could potentially drain to Rob Roy Creek. She also questioned how often
the State checks /inspects the facility. IDNR has been contacted and the State is in charge
of permits for this facility. The local Fire Marshal conducts yearly inspections according
to Granrud. The City would issue building permits and the business also must obtain
permits with respect to air pollution.
There was no further discussion and a motion was made by Lindblom to recommend
acceptance of the final plat. Jones seconded the motion. This motion is subject to legal
opinion, resolution of the engineering issues and also subject to the staff report and
recommendations.
Roll call vote: Adams -aye, Jones -aye, Baker -aye, Lindblom -aye, Holdiman -aye,
Lucietto -aye, Schillinger -aye
Presentations:
1. PC 2007 -40 Yorkville Town Center — Concept Plan
Attorney Robert Kenny was present on behalf of Raycorp for the Yorkville Town Center
plan. He said they wish to change the zoning on 25 acres of the development that is
located near on Rt. 47 and 71 on the southwest corner. Currently the zoning is R2 and
they wish to change that to B3 due to the commercial nature of that intersection. The full
access lines up with the Sunflower development.
Baker said he had concerns with the ingress /egress of the property behind outlot H when
it develops. Attorney Kenny said the property owner had been spoken with. Schillinger
noted that he would like to see connectivity between the existing property and the
proposed development. He further stated that there have been many discussions on ways
to limit stop signs and lights for better traffic flow.
Page 4 of 4
Schillinger also added that although the City needs commercial and open space, he does
not feel this development will have a low impact. There will be many cars due to the gas
station and a potential grocery store and he felt these factors would change the nature of
the nearby Forest Preserve.
Chairman Lucietto summarized the points made and there was no further discussion.
2. Update of Comprehensive Plan Advisory Committee Meeting on
December 20, 2007 by Anne Lucietto
Ms. Lucietto noted that the meeting dates will change —they will alternate between
Wednesdays and Thursdays every other month. She asked Commission members to be
facilitators for the meetings. Lindblom commented that he thought it would be more
beneficial to have City staff members assume that role for continuity. The next meeting
is January 23
Senior Planner Stephanie Boettcher then continued the summary. She said the first
meeting topic was natural resources and six goals were identified. The next meeting
topic will be infrastructure /water /sewer. The following night is the Plan Commission
Consortium to discuss historic planning. Ms. Lucietto asked for any input on this topic.
Additional Business:
Travis Miller said the Open Lands Conservation Group will sponsor a conference on
February 1 St and 2" to discuss farmland conservation and preservation. Anyone
interested in attending should contact him.
According to Lynn Dubajic, the Home Depot store will be opening early February and
she mentioned some of the other businesses scheduled to build there. An open -air area is
still scheduled for the Rt. 34 /Cannonball area. She also said Target is expected to open
late Spring and two other national chains are negotiating with the City.
Schillinger asked about the progress of the WalMart store. Many approvals are needed
for this 11 -month build project and Ms. Dubajic hopes for a 2009 opening.
There was no further business and a motion was made by Jones and seconded by Adams
to adjourn the meeting. Adjourned 8:04pm.
