PRESENTATION
1. Kendall Marketplace Concept Plan
Rick Filler and Jim McPhail, from Harlem Irving Co., and MidAmerica, respectfully,
presented a concept plan for Kendall Marketplace. Kendall Marketplace is a proposed
commercial and residential development on 193 acres at Route 34 from Cannonball Trail
to Beecher Road.
Filler said the developers are taking the opportunity to create a different shopping
experience in Yorkville. Rather than a big power strip or mall, the planned area would
feature several larger anchors such as a Target and a Home Depot. However, the area also
would have a downtown type of area for local retail businesses or restaurants.
The plan also features a residential component with single - family homes and townhomes
and a police station.
Phil Stuepfert, from SEC Planning, said the land is very important and the developers
want this marketplace to be a, step above the average retail center. In designing the
concept, Stuepfert said he tried to pull together features from the city. There are three
components in the plan: a downtown center area, peripheral landscapes and the main
entries.
In the downtown center of the plan, Stuepfert said they want people to be able to walk
around the meandering creek. The intent is for the area to have a- strong pedestrian/urban
streetscape.
On the peripheral streetscape, the planners are looking at 30 -foot buffers along
Cannonball and Route 34. The streetscape would include a board fence along with
naturalized grasses.
Schillinger said he thought the buffer on Cannonball is supposed to be 50 feet. Stuepfert
said they'd look into that as well as the right of way.
Schillinger also asked if the developers had considered environmentally friendly parking
areas or other conservation practices. It was said they are looking at native grasses and
other plantings.
Lucietto said she sees great potential in the plan. The plan is for more than 800,000
square feet of retail. Filler said this is a big project and said the developers are trying to
thread everything together. Currently, a development like this doesn't exist so there's no
place for city officials to visit to see how the concept might work, Filler said.

Crouch said obviously the city is anxiously awaiting the preliminary plan. He said as long
as the developers are sensitive to its neighbors, he excited about it. He said it's the
biggest thing to hit Yorkville in a long time.
Filler said the developers also would see the project through and stay with it. He said his
company builds a home and manages the property.
NEW BUSINESS
1. PC 2006 -06 Grand Reserve Unit 16 — Preliminary /Final Plat
Patti Bernhard, representing the petitioners, said the parcel covers 106 acres and would
house 159 units. There also is a 5.2 -acre park in the project.
City Planner Mike Schoppe said the plans were reviewed and city staff recommends
approval subject to staff comments.
Lucietto made a motion to recommend approval of PC 2006 -06 Grande Reserve Unit 16
Preliminary /Final Plat subject to staff comments. Jones seconded the motion. The motion
was unanimously approved by roll call vote. Kraupner, Holdiman, Lucietto, Davis,
Schillinger, Jones, Crouch and Lindblom voted yes.
2. PC 2006 -02 Yorkshire Estates — Final Plat
Andy Fitz from Montalbano Home said the plan features homes on 10,000 square foot
lots, which is consistent with what was approved in the preliminary plan. This plan, he
said, is almost identical to that plan.
Schillinger said he has problems with the number of those 10,000 square foot lots and
said they should abut larger open spaces.
Meanwhile, Lindblom said he'd like to see an emergency entrance either at lot 31, 32 or
33 until another entrance is created. He also didn't like the use of the name boulevard in
the subdivision when the road isn't actually a boulevard.
Lucietto made a motion to recommend approval of the final plat for PC 2006 -02 subject
to staff concerns, the renaming of the boulevard and an additional temporary entrance.
The motion was unanimously approved in a roll call vote. Holdiman, Lucietto, Davis,
Schillinger, Jones, Crouch, Kraupner and Lindblom voted yes.
3. PC 2006 -21 Villas at the Preserve — Final Plat
City staff has reviewed the final plat and said there are a few engineering issues to
resolve, Schoppe said. The Planning Council recommended approval of the final plat
subject to staff comments.
Lucietto made a motion to recommend approval of the final plat for PC 2006 -21 subject
to staff concerns. Jones seconded the motion. The motion was unanimously approved by
roll call vote. Lucietto, Davis, Schillinger, Jones, Crouch, Kraupner, Holdiman and
Lindblom voted yes.

ADDITIONAL BUSINESS
Lindblom suggested beginning the meetings at 7 p.m., but not holding the public hearings
until 7:30 p.m. especially on nights where many people are in attendance and the public
hearings are expected to last a while. By holding the regular portion of the meeting first,
some of the developers then wouldn't have to sit though a lengthy public hearing.
Also, he said that the Plan Commission would continue to have two monthly meetings if
there are more than three public hearings slated. He said the intent is to hold the public
hearings at the first meeting of the month. However, if there are more than three public
hearings scheduled, he'd prefer that a second meeting be added.
Crouch and Jones agreed with Lindblom's suggestions and suggested that the Plan
Commission try restructuring the meetings.
Lucietto made a motion to adjourn the meeting at 8:28 p.m. Jones seconded the motion.
The motion was unanimously approved by voice vote.
