1.PC 2006 -16 MPI #6 South Yorkville, LLC
The petitioners have filed an application to annex and rezone.
Community Development Director Travis Miller said the plan substantially conforms to
the city's Comprehensive Plan. He recommended that the Plan Commission suggest the
developer conform to the design standards when it makes its recommendation.
Miller also said the points citizens brought up during the public hearing are valid.
Chairman Lindblom said a lot of those issues would likely be resolved further in the
process. Consulting Engineer John Whitehouse from Engineering Enterprises Inc., said
the city would institute the recommendations of the Aux Sable Watershed Committee in
the plan. Also, he said the city is working on utility provisions.
Commissioner Adams said this development is on the same scale as the Grande Reserve
development. In that development, the developers built a school. She said that same type
of provision should be added to this development.
Attorney John Philipchuck, representing the petitioners, said his client has already met
with the school district and that the land set aside in the plan for a high school was the
only topic discussed.
Commissioner Brian Schillinger said Grande Reserve and this proposed development are
anticipated to generate a population of about 13,000. He said the elementary school in
Grande Reserve and the proposed high school site don't seem adequate.
Philipchuck said the city is trying to address the impact issue by instituting impact fees,
which go to the school district.
After additional discussion on the issue, Commissioner Michael Crouch made a motion
to recommend annexation of PC 2006 -16 as requested. Commissioner Jones seconded the
motion. The motion was unanimously approved in a roll call vote. Kraupner, Holdiman,
Lucietto, Davis, Adams, Schillinger, Jones, Crouch and Lindblom voted yes.
Lucietto then made a motion to recommend zoning approval for PC 2006 -16 provided
design standard are met and subject to staff comments. Kraupner seconded the motion.
The motion was approved in a 6 -3 roll call vote. Holdiman, Lucietto, Davis, Adams,
Jones and Lindblom voted yes. Schillinger, Crouch and Kraupner voted no.
2. PC 2006 -08 Ocean Atlantic Chicago LLC
Crouch pointed out that the development would go between two school districts —
Yorkville and Plano. Attorney Dan Kramer, representing the petitioner, stated the petition
has met with both school districts and both districts would prefer cash to land.
Meanwhile, Schillinger said he struggles with the term "age- targeted." He fears that in 15
years those age- targeted homes would become entry -level housing generating a high
Page 3 of 4
student population for the school district. He also said doesn't think the city should
approve 8,500 square foot lots for age - targeted areas.
Lindblom asked why there are 10,000 square foot lots in the middle section that aren't
surrounded by open space. Land planner Chris Lannert said there are concentrated open
spots in other areas. Also, he said the developer is permitted to build 475 units on the site,
but is planning for less than that.
Crouch, however, said that by eliminating one lot, the developer could in fact make the
12,000 square foot minimum requirement.
Lindblom also stated his concern that the 7.5 -yeard setbacks aren't large enough even in
the age- targeted area.
Meanwhile, John Whitehouse, consulting engineer from Engineering Enterprises Inc.,
said the developer had addressed all of the city's staff comments.
Lucietto made a motion to recommend approval of the requested amendment to the
annexation agreement for PC 2006 -08. Adams seconded the motion. The motion failed in
a 1 -7 vote. Davis voted yes. Lucietto, Adams, Schillinger, Crouch, Kraupner Holdiman
and Lindblom voted no. Jones left the meeting before the vote was taken.
Crouch then made a motion to recommend approval of the preliminary plan for PC 2006-
08 as presented. Holdiman seconded the motion. The motion failed in a 3 -5 vote. Davis,
Adams and Holdiman voted yes. Schillinger, Crouch, Kraupner, Lucietto and Lindblom
voted no.
3. PC 2006 -09 Ocean Atlantic Chicago, LLC
Kraupner said the request basically is a request to amend the PUD to reflect the
preliminary plan. He asked what about the woman who came to the public hearing and
shared her concerns about what would happen to her horses and horse race track. Her
property neighbors the Ocean Atlantic property.
Attorney Dan Kramer representing Ocean Atlantic said the developer would put up a
fence between the two properties that would be adequate protection. Also, Lannert with
the location of the golf course, the balls wouldn't be hit in the direction of the horse
property.
Lucietto made a motion to recommend approval of the amended PUD for PC 2006 -09.
Crouch seconded the motion. The motion was unanimously approved by roll call vote.
Adams, Schillinger, Crouch, Kraupner, Holdiman, Lucietto, Davis and Lindblom voted
yes.
4. PC 2005 -65 Fountain Village — Final Plat
Page 4 of 4
Miller said there were some minor revisions to the final plat since the Plan Commission
packets were mailed. However, he said the revisions are for the most part technical in
nature and that city staff has reviewed them.
Lucietto made a motion to recommend approval the approval of the final plat for PC
2005 -65 subject to staff comments. Adams seconded the motion. The motion was
unanimously approved by roll call vote. Crouch, Kraupner, Holdiman, Lucietto, Davis,
Adams, Schillinger and Lindblom voted yes.
Lucietto made a motion to adjourn the meeting. Davis seconded the motion. The motion
was approved by voice vote. The meeting was adjourned at 10:10 p.m.

Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030

�
1 is PC 2006 -16, Number Six South Yorkville, LLC,
2 petitioners, have filed an application with the
3 United City of Yorkville, Kendall County,
4 Illinois, requesting annexation to the United
i
5 City of Yorkville and rezoning from Kendall
6 County A -1 Agricultural to United City of
7 Yorkville Planned Unit Development containing R -2
8 One - Family Residence District, R -2 Duplex
9 Two - Family Residence District, R -3 General
10 Residence District, R -4 General Residence E
11 District, and B -2 General Business District.
12 The real property consists of
13 916.44 acres east of Emmanuel Road, north and
14 south of Ament Road, west of Route 47, and north
15 and south of Walker Road, Kendall Township,
16 Kendall County, Illinois.
17 And who is going to speak for
18 the petitioner? Mr. Philipchuck?
19 WHEREUPON:
20 JOHN F. PHILIPCHUCK,
21 having been first duly sworn, testified before
22 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows:
I
23 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Yes. Good
24 evening. My name is John Philipchuck. I am a
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
5
1 partner with the law firm of Dommermuth, Brestal,
2 Cobine & West, with offices at 123 Water Street,
3 Naperville, Illinois.
4 I am here this evening
5 representing MPI. The Plan Commission I know is
6 familiar with our proposal. We were here a
7 couple times prior, once with a little smaller
8 plan and then we came back to you and showed you
9 another concept plan wherein we had acquired some
10 additional property to take the development down
11 to the important Caton Farm Road and Route 47
12 intersection.
13 So we are now at the stage
14 where we have submitted to -- an application to
i
15 enter into an annexation agreement with the City
16 of Yorkville and zone the property as was
I
17 outlined in the notice that was just read by
18 Chairman Lindblom.
19 With me this evening to testify
20 will be John Martin from JEN Land. As you know,
21 John was here before and presented the land plan;
22 Dawn Burke, our civil engineer from Cowhey
23 Gudmundson & Leder, and Louie Aboona, our traffic
24 engineer, from KLOA.
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
6
1 We will be presenting evidence
2 to you to satisfy the findings that are outlined
3 in the zoning ordinance with regard to an
4 amendment.
5 As you know, the property is
6 currently A -1 in the county and we would be
7 annexing and zoning in the city, and also to
8 satisfy the conditions that are outlined in the
9 zoning ordinance for a special use, and that we
10 are asking to do this as a planned unit
11 development.
12 I think you are familiar with
13 the MPI Group. We are currently developing the
14 Grande Reserve subdivision over on Route 34 in
15 Yorkville, so we are pleased to be back at this
16 stage. We have an exciting development.
17 The Plan Commission recently
18 saw a concept plan that Richard Marker brought in
19 for the property almost to the opposite side of
20 Route 47, and as you know, there are previous
21 annexation agreements that have been entered into
22 for some additional property on the east side of
23 Route 47, and then I know that there have been
24 some other developers who are looking at some
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
7
1 parcels to the west and to the north of the MPI
2 proposal.
3 So we think that with these
4 groups that are starting to come in, we can
5 address the various issues that need to be
6 addressed as far as the city is concerned, how we
7 obtain contiguity to the corporate limits, how we
8 extend utilities to serve the area, and how we
9 maintain the continuity of roads and the access
10 points to the various roadways and especially to
11 Route 47.
12 So at this time I would like to
13 introduce John Martin from JEN Land to discuss
14 the various aspects of the land plan.
15 WHEREUPON:
16 JOHN MARTIN,
17 having been first duly sworn, testified before
18 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows:
19 MR. MARTIN: I don't know if it
20 would help, maybe I know the lighting situation
21 is --
22 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Are all these
23 fluorescents on? Half of them. Let's kill half
24 of them, can we? How about the other one? There
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
8
1 you go.
2 MR. MARTIN: As you know, we were
3 here before you in April and also I believe it
4 was August of last year, so this is the third
5 time through, and as John mentioned, we have
6 added some additional land to this property.
7 Specifically, this property
8 basically at the south end of -- this is Caton
9 Farm Road at the far south end of the property,
10 and this is Walker and this is Ament Road, I
11 Emmanuel and Route 47, so you see the property
12 runs quite a distance, almost two and a half,
13 three miles, north /south along Route 47, and so
14 we have added this piece so that we could get
15 access and basically control the development at
16 the intersection of Caton Farm and Route 47.
17 This basically is a depiction
18 of your Comprehensive Plan and, again, outlined
19 in blue is the 916 -acre parcel, Ament Road,
20 Route 47, Walker, Caton Farm, and Emmanuel, so
21 you can see -- and then coming through the center
22 of the property, which an important feature is
i
23 the mid Aux Sable Creek corridor, correction at
24 this point, that is as your Comprehensive Plan
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
9
1 calls for is basically the separation between the
2 suburban area, which is in the light yellow area,
3 and the pinkish color is what you classify as a
4 transitional area, with a commercial node at
5 Walker, and obviously the larger node at Caton
6 Farm and Route 47.
7 This was the plan that we
8 presented back in April. As you can see, we did
9 not have the piece south to Caton Farm, that
10 piece has been added to the assemblage.
11 This is somewhere in the area
12 of 700 acres; we are now over 900 acres for the
13 total assemblage.
14 This represents the plan that
15 was presented in August with the added parcel to
16 the south, getting us down to the south line of
17 the property at Caton Farm and Route 47. Walker
18 Road here.
19 This plan, as you can see,
20 showed a middle school site and a community park.
I
21 This is the extension per your Comprehensive Plan
22 of Wheeler Road, which comes from the east across
I
23 47 and is extending to the west.
24 This particular plan had a
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
10
1 traditional neighborhood design in this quadrant
2 of the plan, which in the new plan has been
3 eliminated.
4 The current plan, again, is
5 broken into, per your Comprehensive Plan, north
6 of Aux Sable Creek, the suburban assemblage, and
7 south is what falls into your Comprehensive Plan,
8 the transitional area in zoning.
9 We have attempted to and tried
10 to and I think demonstrate that we comply with
I
11 and in fact are actually less than the intensity
12 that is shown in your Comprehensive Plan for
13 these areas.
14 The suburban area now is
i
15 totally single- family, there is no attached
16 development at all in this area, and as I go
17 through that, I will explain some of the other
18 changes.
19 In this lighter color, the
20 yellow area represents the suburban portion of
I
21 the property and the tan color represents the
22 transitional. You can see Aux Sable Creek is the
23 dividing line between those areas.
24 This represents the suburban
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
11
1 acreage in the Aux Sable Creek corridor here.
2 Everything north of that falls in your suburban
3 category.
4 Per your Comprehensive Plan
5 that category allows a density range of one and a
6 half to 2.25 dwelling units per acre as a design
7 guideline.
8 Also that suburban category
9 does allow some attached development, and
10 anything over two units per acre would require I
11 compliance with the design guidelines.
12 In this suburban area, one of
13 the major changes to the plan from the August
14 plan that you looked at is that we provided or we
15 have now shown -- in working with the school
16 district and high school district, we are showing
17 a 59 -acre high school site, obviously Yorkville
18 south along Route 47 in this area, so it has
19 complete frontage.
20 This is the Lutheran church
I
21 here at Ament and 47, so everybody gets their
22 bearings.
23 So basically what we are
24 showing is this entire frontage down to the
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
12
1 proposed Wheeler Road extension for a proposed
2 high school site of approximately 59 acres.
3 This is slightly over what our
4 population would generate in terms of our school
5 donation requirement for that high school site.
6 In addition to the high school
7 site, there is a three -acre park site. We have
8 met with and just met with again recently the
9 park district. Their desire was to have a park
10 site up in this northern section north of Ament.
11 These are large lot
12 single- family homes, with a park site that could
13 have the ability, we show a road stub right here,
14 of expanding into the property to the east.
15 In addition to that, the
16 suburban area also shows a 14 -acre community park
17 site in this location along the proposed Wheeler
18 Road corridor, so that's a change from that
19 August plan in terms of where we had a middle
20 school site and a community park site. A little
21 bit more internal.
22 Now, we have placed both of
23 those facilities together along the proposed
24 corridor with Wheeler Road.
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 =0030
13
1 In addition, there is a private
2 swim club of five acres proposed just south of
3 the community park along this large open space
4 area.
5 Here we have a large lake being
6 proposed just south of Wheeler Road. We are
7 proposing a five -acre aquatic center similar to
8 the Grande Reserve Aquatic Center that you see
9 out there today. i
10 Along with the open space
11 system, per your design guidelines, we have
12 attached all of these areas with a bike trail
13 system; the north part along what is essentially
14 a drainage ditch now from Wheeler, south from
15 Ament, down to the proposed Wheeler Road ,
16 extension, and then south of that to a bike trail
17 system, which is part of a regional trail system,
18 the mid Aux Sable Creek corridor trail.
19 So we have connected in a
20 north /south direction as well as east /west along
21 Wheeler Road, connect a community park and high
i
22 school site to that overall green belt trail
23 system.
24 Within the suburban area, we
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
14
1 have basically three lot sizes. Another major
2 change to this plan from the August plan, we have
3 increased our minimum lot size to 10,000 square
4 feet.
5 Everything west of this
6 north /south corridor and the bike path system are
7 12,000 square foot lots. We have four
8 neighborhoods, neighborhood one, two, three and
9 four, to the south of Wheeler. Those
10 neighborhoods would be a minimum of 12,000 square
11 feet with lot widths of 85 and 80 feet.
12 So that begins to set the
13 standard for continuing upscale housing along
14 Emmanuel Road in this location, so that part of
15 the suburban area has also increased in terms of
16 lot size.
17 Next to that, just east of the
18 area of 12,000 square foot lots, we have two
19 neighborhoods of 11,000 square feet, so we are
20 transitioning down from 12 to the 11. Those lot
21 widths would be in the 75 and 80 foot - range.
22 And then finally, the last two
23 neighborhoods in the suburban area would be two
24 10,000 square foot lot neighborhoods just on
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
15
1 either side of Wheeler Road, this one just south
2 of the swim club area north of the mid Aux Sable
3 Creek corridor and another 10,000 square foot lot
4 neighborhood just next to the community park and
5 high school site. Those 10,000 square foot lot
6 neighborhoods would be given 75 and 70 -foot lot
7 minimum widths.
8 So you can see the plan, you
9 know, the suburban areas are basically all now
I
10 single- family north of mid Aux Sable Creek.
11 In addition to the high school
12 site, we are showing a five -acre fire station at
13 the intersection of the proposed Wheeler Road
14 intersection and Emmanuel in this location.
15 Also there would be a water
16 tower in the far north corner of the high school
17 site with access out to Route 47.
18 There is also in the suburban
19 neighborhood a 13 -acre commercial site located
20 just south of Wheeler Road intersection, and this
21 is in keeping again with your Comprehensive Plan i
22 for providing neighborhood commercial in this
23 area.
24 This is kind of a graphic of
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
16
1 the extension of Wheeler Road. Basically what
2 this does is follow the Comprehensive Plan.
3 Other than what we have done with this extension,
4 your Comprehensive Plan actually shows Wheeler
5 Road in this location, we have basically provided
6 it here, and the reason for that is you can see
7 in the pink the amount of floodplain, the Aux
8 Sable Creek corridor, plus this Comprehensive
9 Plan has it cutting through a cemetery, Emmanuel
10 Cemetery, at this location, so I met with staff,
11 and I think they are in agreement that the
12 realignment of Wheeler Road as it's shown makes
13 no sense in terms of lessening the impact to the
14 environmental features in the area.
15 The overall density for the
16 suburban area, overall density is 1.31. When you
17 take out the 13 -acre commercial, the gross
18 residential density in the suburban area is 1.34,
19 so you can see the suburban area is substantially
20 lower than the guidelines in the Comprehensive
I
21 Plan that call for one and a half to 2.25, so we
22 are substantially less than that. There is over
23 160 acres of open space within this suburban
24 neighborhood.
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
17
I
1 The last category to the south
2 assemblage is in the -- falls in the transitional
3 area of the Comprehensive Plan. That calls for
4 2.25 to three and a half units per acre. Again,
I
5 this is on a gross residential acreage. It
6 obviously allows for some medium density housing.
7 What we have done, again
8 following the Comprehensive Plan, providing for
9 the additional open space as outlined in the j
10 design guidelines of the Comprehensive Plan,
11 provided for an open space system that again is
12 connected by a trail system.
13 We have provided for two parks.
14 Again, meeting with the park district, their
15 desire was to have parks that could be
16 expandable.
17 As you can see, this 13 -acre
18 park just south of Walker Road is expandable to
19 the west; in fact, we have provided it along our
20 west property line.
21 The same thing is true for our
22 five -acre other park site that we have located
23 just south of the single- family neighborhood
24 along the proposed collector road going east /west
De o Court Reporting Service 630 983 -0030
P P g ( )
18
1 in this area, so that that also could be
2 expanded.
3 You see there is another
4 watershed or a ditch corridor coming through the
5 property in this location, there is floodplain
6 associated with that, but as per the
7 Comprehensive Plan, we are providing for a trail
8 system through that open space along -- this is a
9 gas line easement running in a diagonal direction
10 along the center portion of the property between
11 Walker and Caton Farm, so we are providing that
12 north /south trail through the open space system,
13 and then that would attach to the north into the
14 suburban neighborhoods, so we are -- we are again
i
15 following the design guidelines in our
16 Comprehensive Plan to tie all these open space
17 areas together.
18 The components of this
19 transitional area, again, provide for more
20 single- family, more single- family neighborhoods,
21 in this transitional area.
22 Actually everything north of
I
23 Walker Road, when you include the suburban area,
24 would be single - family.
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
19
1 This is another neighborhood of
2 10,000 square foot lots. We have a second
3 transitional area here, as well as a smaller
4 single- family neighborhood here.
5 What that does again -- and I
I
6 think with this property -- the big advantage of
7 this property, it's kind of setting the trends
8 out in this area as you develop along Route 47,
9 so we are actually setting the stage for the
i
10 development of single- family to the west of this
i
11 southern leg of our property by putting those
12 three single- family neighborhoods, as well as all
13 the open space, along that western property line.
14 We have a road system that is
15 basically a collector road system coming in off
16 of Route 47 connecting to an east /west road
17 system that would go past and intersect with this
18 commercial intersection just north of Caton Farm
i
19 Road.
20 These commercial properties
21 were basically set due to intersection distances
22 off of Route 47 along Walker and Caton Farm.
23 The size and shape of these
24 commercial properties is basically dictated by
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
20
1 the -- those access points.
2 There are three components,
3 attached components, of our transitional area.
4 The first two is a more traditional, or I should
5 say conventional townhome, front - loaded townhome
I
6 area in this location, you can see the examples
7 of the front -load attached townhome, and then
8 there is a rear - loaded courtyard townhome, you
9 are all familiar with that, that style of housing
10 is very popular today, where you have the front
11 porches out on the streetscape and rear motor
12 courts, basically garages, are in the back, court
13 home type of design.
14 And the last design would be a
15 multi - family neighborhood between the two
16 commercial areas with good access to Route 47.
17 This access internally gets us
18 without having to meet 47 basically in this
19 commercial area here and the larger commercial
20 area down at the intersection of Caton Farm and
21 47.
22 There is a 23 -acre -- again,
23 size and shape of this dictated by our access
24 points along 47 and Walker Road in this case, and
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
21
1 then here the Caton Farm intersection with 47,
2 and the closest intersection where we have the
3 potential for a signal for this 45 -acre, which is
4 the largest commercial component in the plan.
5 All totaled with the 13 acres
6 to the north, these two commercial parcels, there
7 is a 81 -acres of post commercial for this
I
8 Yorkville south development.
9 The transitional area density
10 is slightly -- it's on the -- we are basically at
I
11 3.55. The range in your Comprehensive Plan is
12 3.5.
13 Our feeling is that the
14 transfer of the attached areas to this southern
15 area next to a 23 -acre and 45 -acre commercial
16 site makes no sense in terms of where the
17 attached should be, and we have kept that
18 suburban area totally single - family, as I pointed
19 out, well under the low end of your range, which
20 is one and a half, so I think we are at 1.34 on
i
21 the suburban, we are at 3.55 on the transitional
22 area.
23 So, in our opinion, the
24 transfer that slightly amounts to about 14 units
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
22
1 to this south area makes more sense than
2 introducing any attached program in that suburban
3 area, which we could do according to your
4 Comprehensive Plan.
5 Finally, this is the overall
6 view of the development. Again, 916 acres. Our
7 overall density, including the transitional area
8 and the suburban area, is 2.11.
9 If you look at the mean average
a
10 of your suburban density and transitional
11 density, I think you will see that it's two and a
12 half, so we are well under the range or the
13 median range -- the median range of your
I
14 Comprehensive Plan.
15 Advantages to obviously the
16 village of this proposed development is to
17 control the development along Route 47 and
18 basically to get down and control the
19 intersection of Caton Farm and Route 47, which we
20 know, and your Comprehensive Plan points out, is
21 a critical area of this region in terms of
22 potential for commercial development.
23 Also I think what we have done
24 is complied with your design guidelines along
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
23
1 Route 47, as far as everyone is concerned what
2 that's going to look like.
3 Other than the three commercial
4 nodes, we have provided for a hundred foot
5 minimum landscape buffer along 47 between the two
6 attached neighborhoods in this location.
I
7 There is a lot of floodplain,
8 open space, view corridors along the balance
9 of -- even though this property is not part of
10 the development, most of that is floodplain, so i
11 there is going to be a lot of view corridors into
12 the site, as well as obviously providing for the
13 59 -acre high school site, community park facility
14 in this location, will provide a very open view
15 along Route 47 as you traverse that corridor.
16 We have also worked in
17 preserving -- there is approximately 323 acres of
18 open space. Now, this doesn't include any of the
19 common area open space in the attached program,
20 there is over 323 acres that we include the high
21 school site, all of the open space that may end
22 up being in the HOA control, as well as the park
I
23 site, that's over 35 percent of this property,
24 916 acres, in open space.
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
24
1 The Mid Aux Sable Creek, a lot
2 of that area out there is currently farm. That
3 area is going to be preserved and all that
4 floodplain area will be returned to natural
5 vegetation, which will help the quality of that
6 mid Aux Sable corridor.
7 And, again, as I mentioned,
I
8 this proposal is less dense than what the actual
1
9 design guidelines of your Comprehensive Plan call
10 for.
11 I think with that, I will turn
12 it over to John -- back to John. I think we
13 might hear some engineering issues.
14 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: I think you can
15 see by the land plan, we've been very sensitive
16 to working the various products well and
17 distribute them well within the site, keeping in
18 mind that some of the adjacent properties are
19 used for where the main roads are, you know,
20 Ament, certainly Wheeler, Emmanuel, are roads
21 that are designed in the city's Comprehensive
22 Plan to take more traffic, and I think we have
23 laid out those land uses appropriately and taken
24 care that our product will not substantially
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
25
1 impair or impact the land values, the property
2 values, of other residences in the area.
3 We have designed the utilities
4 and we are looking at -- because of our
5 experiences that we are having at working in the
6 Aux Sable Creek watershed, we are cognizant of
7 the quality standards there and will be working
8 with the group that has been the chief proponents
9 for that. And at this time I would like to then
10 introduce Dawn Burke.
i
11 Dawn, as I said earlier, is our
12 civil engineer on this project. She will touch
13 upon the aspects of utilities and how we are
14 handling stormwater management, which I'm sure
15 many of those that are here visiting this evening
16 are interested in.
17 WHEREUPON:
18 DAWN BURKE,
19 having been first duly sworn, testified before
20 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows:
I
21 MS. BURKE: Thanks, John. As he
22 said, my name is Dawn Burke. This slide here
23 shows the sanitary sewer. The MPI Group, as well
24 as several of the other developers in this area,
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
26
1 have been working with the Yorkville - Bristol
2 Sanitary District in extending the -- extending
3 the interceptor sewers to this area.
4 These interceptor sewers are
5 located for this project in these areas there
6 along Caton Farm Road and then up just east of 47
7 and then along the Aux Sable Creek.
8 The sanitary sewer is meant to
9 be a gravity sewer throughout the site flowing
10 from a north to south direction, as well as the
11 same for the south portion location near Caton
12 Farm.
13 The next item here is the water
14 main. As you can see, sort of, there is a
15 pressure zone area. Up in this one area here we
16 are in a different pressure zone than the south
17 area here, which is -- Ament is the actual divide
18 line for the zones.
19 The site, as John had
20 mentioned, has located a proposed area for the
21 sanitary -- I'm sorry, the water main, as far as
22 the -- I'm sorry --
23 (WHEREUPON, a short
24 recess was taken)
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
27
1 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: It's okay. While
2 Dawn is collecting herself, I will introduce
3 Louie Aboona. Louie is our traffic consultant
4 with KLOA.
5 He will touch upon the Road
6 network, some of the accesses that we are looking
7 at in order to be able to develop the site, and
8 how the various road extensions will be handled,
I
9 traffic patterns, some of those things that he
i
10 has looked at, so Louie?
11 WHEREUPON:
12 LOUIE ABOONA,
13 having been first duly sworn, testified before
14 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows:
15 MR. ABOONA: Okay.
16 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Excuse me
17 before you start. Art, do you know if there is a
18 thermostat in here? It is exceptionally warm.
19 What about fans?
20 MS. LUCIETTO: That would help, too.
21 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: John
22 Philipchuck, this has gone on now for probably a
23 half hour. I just would ask whoever else you've
24 got for speaking on behalf of the petitioner to
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 =0030
28
1 make it as brief as possible. I'm sure we are
2 going to have a lot of questions and concerns
3 expressed by the audience, and we want to get
4 through that.
5 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: We will, but
6 hopefully we will cover enough of the topics that
7 we don't have to have everything.
8 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: I understand. I
9 understand.
10 MR. ABOONA: Good evening. My name f
11 is Louie Aboona, A- B- 0- 0 -N -A. I am a traffic !
I
12 engineer with the firm KLOA. We are located in
13 Rosemont, Illinois.
14 We have performed a traffic
15 study that looked at the impact of the south
16 assemblage, and it's all summarized in the report
17 that I believe was submitted to the city for the
18 review of the staff.
19 Basically as part of the
20 traffic study we looked at a study area that
i
21 extended from 71 on the north to Caton Farm on
22 the south and from 47 on the east to Lisbon Road
23 on the west.
24 We looked at all the
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
29
1 intersections in between, we took counts in the
2 morning and evening peak periods to get a feel
3 what the existing traffic volumes are on the
4 existing roadway network.
5 We analyzed all the
6 intersections that are contained in this study
7 area to get a feel for the level of operation and
8 capacity issues and constraints.
9 We then looked at the traffic
10 generation from the proposed development. We j
11 looked at all the neighborhoods within the
I
12 assemblage, all the residential units from
13 single- family to townhomes. We also included the
14 commercial, the over 80 acres of commercial, that
15 is planned as part of the assemblage.
16 We generated the traffic from
17 all these different neighborhoods and assigned it
18 to the roadway network as it exists today, as
19 well as with the proposed extension of Wheeler
20 Road through the development from 47 to Emmanuel
21 Road.
22 We also looked at traffic from
23 other developments in the area, namely the
24 Heartland development, which is adjacent to the
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
30
1 site on the east side of 47, and then we also
2 looked at growth and the traffic on 47 that would
3 occur as a result of all the other activities
4 surrounding this development, as well as a
5 regional road.
i
6 We carried all that to the year
7 2020 and then we reanalyzed all the intersections
8 again and we identified a number of improvements
9 that need to be made in this area, specifically
10 along 47, not only to address the needs of this
11 development, but as well as address the needs of
12 the traffic from other developments and
13 development in the area.
14 And what I would just like to
15 do is just briefly go over some of the
i
16 improvements that are contemplated once again to
17 address 2020 conditions.
18 Starting on the north end, this
19 is the 71 and 47 intersection. This is 47, which
20 is obviously a north /south route, and 47 is under
21 the jurisdiction of Illinois Department of
22 Transportation, so whatever we suggest and what
23 whatever we have analyzed and recommended will
24 have to be reviewed and studied and approved by
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
31
1 IDOT before any of that is implemented.
2 47 also is classified by IDOT
3 as a regional arterial.
4 So we've got 71 on the north
5 end, Caton Farm on the south end and Caton Farm
6 to the east is Kendall County and, once again,
7 Kendall County will get a chance to review our
8 studies and our recommendations. Caton Farm is
9 an important route for Kendall in terms of being
10 an SRA, and their projections in the future for I
11 that to be a five -lane roadway.
12 Basically starting at the
13 north, 47 and 71 is a signalized intersection
14 currently. We foresee that intersection will
15 have to be upgraded with multiple turn lanes
16 especially along 71 and then we have four through
17 lanes on 47.
18 Coming south to Legion Road,
19 that intersection currently is an unsignalized,
20 stop sign controlled intersection for Legion Road
i
21 traffic. We don't foresee a signal will be
22 needed at that intersection; however, once again,
23 we see the need for turn lanes and additional
24 through lanes on 47.
i
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
32
1 Working our way down to Ament
2 Road, that intersection provides the northerly
3 access into the northern part of the assemblage.
4 That intersection will require signalization, and
5 then also four lanes on 47.
6 The next intersection is
7 Wheeler Road, and, once again, Wheeler Road will
8 be extended ultimately from Hopkins Road to Ament
9 and then over to Lisbon through our development.
10 Obviously that would be the responsibility of
11 this development. To the east and west will be
12 development -- as developments come through, then
13 that extension will be built.
14 We foresee the intersection to
15 be signalized, once again, with turn lanes on 47
16 and four through lanes on 47 and turn lanes on
17 Wheeler Road.
18 Wheeler Road, the development,
19 we anticipate that per the Comprehensive Plan to
20 be a collector road.
21 We are projecting it to be a
22 three -lane roadway, one lane each direction, plus
23 turn lanes on the north and south, and we are
24 looking at maintaining 500 feet of spacing
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
33
1 between the entrance to various neighborhoods.
2 Further south, the intersection
3 of Walker and 47, once again, we have seen -- we
4 are projecting a traffic signal at that
5 intersection, plus turn lanes, plus additional
6 through lanes, the same as the two access roads
7 into the commercial and the residential
8 neighborhoods in the south section of the
9 development, once again, we provide traffic
10 signals there, and then finally at Caton Farm and
11 47, that being an important intersection, as I
12 indicated earlier, for the county, as well as
13 IDOT, based on projected volumes we see the need
14 for traffic signals and four lanes on 47.
15 With regard to the 47
16 cross - section, we project between Wheeler and
17 Caton Farm that the roadway would be widened to
18 four lanes continuous; north of Wheeler it would
19 narrow down to one lane each direction with the
20 widening at the major intersections, as I
21 indicated earlier.
22 The remaining intersections
23 internal and to the west of the site we don't
24 foresee any need for any kind of signalization.
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
34
1 Those intersections currently are mostly under
2 two -way stop sign control.
3 We foresee the need for some
4 turn lanes at some of the minor intersections,
5 but nothing major, nothing in terms of mid lot
6 improvements more than one lane each -- one lane
7 each direction.
8 Access, as Mr. Martin
9 indicated, you know, we are providing along 47,
10 but there will be a lot of internal access to the
i
11 east /west roads, as well as on the west side of
12 the development, and there are going to be a lot
13 of inner connections between neighborhoods so
14 traffic can go from one side of the development
15 to the other side of the development without
16 having to get out on 47.
17 They will utilize either
18 internal roadways within the neighborhoods, as I
19 indicated, or go around the creek, use Emmanuel
20 and Walker Road, for example, to be able.
21 Residences on the north side
22 can use the commercial without having to go out
I
23 on 47.
24 That would conclude my
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
35
1 presentation. I will turn it back over to
2 Mr. Philipchuck.
3 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: We have a pinch
4 hitter for Dawn. Jason Nijim is a civil engineer
5 and he works with the MPI Group, and he will
6 highlight some of the details that Dawn did not
7 yet get to.
8 We will talk briefly about our
9 water system and then our stormwater management
10 system, but Dawn and Paul Leder from Cowhey
11 Gudmundson will be here if there are specific
12 questions, if there is something that we didn't
13 adequately touch upon that still raises
I
14 questions. So Jason?
15 WHEREUPON:
16 JASON NIJIM,
17 having been first duly sworn, testified before
18 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows:
19 MR. NIJIM: Thank you, John.
20 Members of the Plan Commission, just to kind of
21 briefly start off back on the water main slide,
22 as Dawn was saying, we have specified a location
23 right there for the water storage, treatment and
24 well facilities.
I
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
36
1 It's not 100 percent certain
I
2 that that will be on this site; at the time there
3 is other developers in the area, that also makes
4 sense elevation -wise to provide that storage
5 facility and treatment for the pressure zone that
6 needs to serve this area south.
7 Other than that, this will --
8 this development will also provide water main
9 extensions to the southwest area of Yorkville
10 that is also now developing and will have water
i
11 mains running through the site to service the
12 properties to the south, as well as oversizing
13 for properties that will come in to the west.
14 The next slide we have is the
15 conceptual drainage. You have to forgive me, I
16 am not as 100 percent familiar as Dawn was, but
17 basically what we provided in this area right
18 here is a retention lake, a large retention area.
19 Most of the other stormwater
20 management facilities on the site will be
21 naturalized facilities as we have done in other
22 developments in Yorkville, which provides for
23 more of the -- what the intention is for this
24 area, to keep a rural -type nature to the project.
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
37
1 Obviously we have the Aux Sable
2 Creek, which is the major drainageway through
3 here and off to the east with -- and we will be
4 working with whatever requirements that are
5 needed there.
6 The last subject would be the
i
7 roadways. I think Louie probably did a pretty
8 thorough job on that, so I won't touch on that
9 for just a second, except to note the proposed
10 Wheeler Road extension going through the site
11 that will extend off and be a major roadway
12 through the city in the next coming years.
13 We have extensive systems
14 connecting for traffic and safety throughout the
15 internal workings of the neighborhoods, as well
16 as utilization of the existing roadways at
17 Walker, Caton Farm, Emmanuel and Ament. I think
18 that's all for I me.
19 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Thank you. Just
20 to summarize then, Mr. Chairman and members of
21 the Planning Commission, the revised plan that we
22 brought tonight has some important facets to it.
23 I think we mentioned early on
24 that we are working with the Yorkville - Bristol
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
38
1 Sanitary District and the city to work out the
2 various technologies for the pump station that
3 will ultimately be needed to accumulate all the
4 effluent through a gravity system and then force
5 main up along the Commonwealth Edison property
6 north of Ament Road where it will discharge into
7 the gravity system and come down to the plant.
8 The water system will also be
9 linked with the existing system. Because of the
10 different pressure zones, we will have the
i
11 appropriate pressure reducing stations, et
12 cetera, installed in that system, and then, of
13 course, we will have the new source of water with
14 the new well out here, a treatment facility, a
15 stand pipe, have the adequate amount of storage
16 for pressure and for firefighting purposes.
17 I think an important component
18 is the identification of the new high school site
19 serving Yorkville. I think it has a prominent
20 place along Route 47.
21 It will have an open space
22 feature to it, and it is located in a position
23 that in the event that the district wishes to
24 acquire some more property, there is some land
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
39
1 that is adjacent to it that would be available,
2 and then we have also located a park adjacent to
3 it.
4 We have met with the park
5 board, we have gotten some of their input, and we
6 are here this evening to obviously get some input
7 from the Plan Commission and from those in the
8 public that are here.
9 So with that, we are available,
10 of course, to answer questions of the Plan `
11 Commission and public.
I I
12 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. Thank
13 you, John.
14 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Thank you.
15 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Before I ask for
16 questions or concerns from the public, I was
17 handed two documents when I walked in tonight.
18 The first one was from Ted and
19 Rose White. I think you are here.
20 MR. WHITE: I am here.
21 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Mr. and
22 Mrs. White, we have given copies of this to all
23 the Plan Commission members. I have given it to
24 the reporter, so it will be in the record of the
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
40
1 proceedings tonight.
2 I don't feel it necessary to
3 read this whole thing, but do you wish to make
4 any comments on it at all?
5 MR. WHITE: No, not at this time.
6 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: We thank you for
7 that, by the way. The second one that was
8 received from Paul Pocius?
9 MR. POCIUS: Pocius.
10 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: I'm sorry?
i
11 MR. POCIUS: Pocius.
12 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Pocius. This
13 was handed out also, and I need to get a copy to
14 you. Paul, do you wish-to make any comments?
15 MR. POCIUS: I'd like to make a
16 few.
17 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. I'd like
18 to call you up.
1-, WHEREUPON:
20 PAUL POCIUS,
21 having been first duly sworn, testified before
22 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows:
23 MR. POCIUS: Okay. I am a member of
24 the Aux Sable Creek Watershed Commission, and the
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
41
1 main interest of this coalition is to protect the
2 watershed that is directly south of Yorkville,
3 and perhaps you already know that the main stem
4 of this watershed is considered a Class A
5 stream, which is quite unique and quite a
6 valuable natural resource, and the tributary
7 called the mid Aux Sable that runs through the
8 middle of this property feeds into that main
9 stem.
i
10 The quality of the stream at
11 this point has not been inventoried, so I can't
12 make the claim that right here it's a Class A
13 stream, but it starts up near the Cotswold Fen
14 and runs down to this position here.
15 The Watershed Coalition would
16 like to see that entire corridor protected. We
17 would like to see that we can ensure that the
18 waters that run into and through that tributary
19 stay clean.
20 I think that in the coming
21 years we are going to find that water quality and
22 water availability is one of the most important
23 things that we have to consider in our daily
24 lives for our quality of life, and we would like
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
42
1 to see all waters protected in some manner. We'd
2 like to see the Plan Commission here trying to
3 work that in.
4 The thing about this particular
5 proposal that is of concern, first of all, is
6 that it is quite lengthy. It runs for two or
7 three miles. I think it's going to set the tone
8 for the development that shows up on either side.
9 I think it's very important
10 that this be done right. I think we need to put i
11 in best management practices for stormwater
I
12 run -off.
13 I think we need to ensure that
14 at the point that the waters off of this property
15 run into the creek that they are clean as
16 possible, that they enter the creek at a low
17 velocity, that they not erode and scour out the
18 creek, cause sedimentation, et cetera.
19 Right here in this particular
20 area right here, that's only a small width. I
I
21 don't know how much of the stormwater drainage is
i
22 targeted towards that area, but this entire area
23 up here is to drain into that one location.
24 I would be concerned about the
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
43
1 effects on the creek at that point. I would like
2 to see some things done to make this a softer
3 approach so to speak to the creek.
4 I look at these areas right
5 here and I know that those areas are wetland
I
6 areas. I don't know whatever would be built on
7 them. I don't know who is going to actually own
8 them. I would like to see that question
9 addressed.
10 I think if we are going to make
11 plans for what happens along the creek right
12 there that we need to consider that now, not just
13 leave that land sit there and we don't know
14 what's going to happen to it.
I
15 There is a little bit of
16 awkwardness here with this trail making a right
17 angle bend. It would seem to me like it should
18 go along the creek.
19 But is that going to happen?
20 Are we going to build a trail there and then
21 build another trail later on? It's things like
22 that that I would have some concern with.
23 Down here at the bottom we have
24 a commercial area, it looks like a large
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
44
1 commercial area, and my question would be what's
2 going to happen to the stormwater that runs off
3 of that?
4 It's bound to carry a lot of
5 grease and oil and anti - freeze, things like that,
6 into the creek. What's going to be done to treat
7 that?
8 Is there any plan of using
9 bio- retention aisles, just the opposite of a
10 normal island, it's depressed, it allows the i
• i
11 water to collect and to be cleansed by vegetation
12 that's appropriate for this purpose.
13 Apparently part of the
14 floodplain is going to be built -in and I guess
15 there is going to be some compensatory storage to
16 the other side. Is this going to affect the
17 creek in that particular area? And that's a
18 concern.
19 I can't think of any other
20 points right now that I'd like to address because
21 I know this is a lengthy proceeding.
22 You have my written comments,
23 and I think you understand what the position of
24 the Watershed Coalition is on this. Thank you.
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030

1 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Thank you.
2 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Tom, before you go
3 any further, has anybody not signed the sign -in
4 sheet?
5 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: We are going to
6 pass the sign -up sheet again. If you have not
7 signed it, will you please do so?
8 John, do you or your engineers
9 have any comments to --
10 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Just to remind the
11 Plan Commission and Paul, in this particular '
12 instance we are coming into the concept plan as a
13 planned unit development, so we will be coming
14 back to the Plan Commission with a preliminary
15 and then, of course, again with the final, so
16 you'll have an opportunity, as we will, to look
17 at the best management practices that Paul
18 outlined.
19 Some of the detention
20 facilities, you can see, Paul, where our major
21 commercial area is, that's a large detention area
22 that will collect water, and then with the plants
23 it's amazing what plants can do to filter out
24 some of our urban run -off and allow it to come
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
46
1 out in a clean state before it would ever begin
2 its meandering to get up to the tributary areas
3 here.
4 But we have several locations
5 within the development, not just that particular
6 one, that will collect stormwater.
7 As I think Jason mentioned,
8 some of them, at least one, will be a large lake.
9 Most of the others are going to be of the variety
10 where we will have plants that will be able to j
11 filter the water before it reaches the creek, and
12 we are not going to be in a situation where we
13 have any direct pipe discharges to the creek.
14 Our plan is to work all of
15 those best management practices in as we go
16 along, but at this juncture, we have not gotten
17 to that detail, just as you don't see any lotting
18 on this particular plan.
19 We've tried to give you some
20 basic land use areas, basic lot sizes, that we
21 are proposing, and you saw some pictures in the
22 presentation of the kind of product that we have
23 in mind, so these are the things that we're
24 putting out to you to say this is the feel for
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
47
1 the development, this is how we will proceed, but
2 we definitely will be back to work on those
3 details.
4 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. Thank
5 you, John.
6 I'll make this comment just for
7 the benefit of the audience. Through this whole
8 process, the city has consulting engineers and
i
9 land planners that take a look at this also to
10 make sure that they don't just take the word of
11 the developer for all these various engineering
12 things. It does come back and is reviewed by the
13 city staff and engineers also.
14 Okay. With that being said, is
15 there questions, specific questions, or comments
16 that wish to be made from people in the audience?
17 Lady over here, please. Yes.
18 Would you please stand up, state your name, come
19 to the podium, please? Please.
20 WHEREUPON:
21 MS. KASESKA,
22 having been first duly sworn, testified before
23 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows:
24 MS. KASESKA: Okay. One of my
Il i
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
48
1 questions is -- I have to use the diagram. Okay.
2 Up here, when the gentleman -- when you build
3 this neighborhood number three, okay, and it's
4 right around the fire station, okay, is there
5 going to be a buffer zone between where the land
6 ends and my property?
7 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: I want to make
8 sure that everybody can hear you plus the court
9 reporter because she has to get the testimony
10 down, so I want to make sure everybody can hear.
11 MS. KASESKA: Okay. Where your
12 neighborhood three is, okay, what I am interested
13 in knowing is in some of your properties around
14 in Yorkville, they are building like a barricade
15 and then is this an area where a separation
16 between, say, these two properties and where your
17 property, your subdivisions, are going to be
18 built?
19 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Yes. Typically
20 what we'll do where we abut against the
21 residences, we will look at a combination of
22 perhaps some berms, some type of undulating berm,
23 and perhaps some landscaping to transition
24 between the two areas.
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
49
1 MS. KASESKA: Some of the newer
2 areas lined on High Point Road and Legion, what
3 they are doing is they are putting these tall
4 barricade -type things.
5 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: When you say
6 barricades, you mean an earthen berm with grass
7 on it?
8 MS. KASESKA: No, it's like a fence,
9 wooden fence or something. I don't know the
10 terms.
11 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: We typically would
12 prefer not to use a fence. It's a pretty
13 artificial means.
14 We have like land uses, this is
15 a residential use that we are proposing,
16 single- family; likewise, the lots around that
17 parcel will also be single- family residences.
18 But when it comes down to an
19 individual basis when we get to that level of
20 detail, if you prefer a fence, we can certainly
21 look at that.
22 MS. KASESKA: And your fire station,
23 that looks like there is going to be some land
24 between the fire station and the subdivision?
I
i
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
50
1 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Yes. And that
2 would be probably some type of landscaped area
3 that would separate the land uses. That would
4 definitely use some type of landscaping.
5 MS. KASESKA: Okay. Now, the
6 gentleman that was talking about the roads,
7 okay --
8 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Mr. Aboona?
9 MS. KASESKA: Okay. All right.
10 Ament here, there is no stop sign. Right now we
11 have all the kids that come along here and all
12 they do is wheelies and they're going faster than
13 55.
14 I don't care, I live out there,
15 it don't bother me, but what's going to happen
16 when you put in this proposed Wheeler with this
17 high school here? We are going to have a major
18 problem.
19 Not only do we need stop signs,
20 you are going to have to lower the speed limit.
21 Are you anticipating doing that? I want to be
22 able to freely come out of my fence.
23 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Yes. We will have
24 to work with the city police department as far as
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
51
1 where the traffic control devices will be
2 located, as well as speed limits at that time.
3 MS. KASESKA: Okay. I think that's
4 about all I have.
5 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Okay. Thank you
6 for your comments.
7 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Thank you. If
8 anybody up here has been looking at the clock at
9 the back of the wall, it's been quarter to 8:00
10 for the last 20 minutes.
i
11 (Laughter)
12 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. Other
13 questions or concerns from the audience?
14 (No Response)
15 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. I will
16 then close that portion of the public -- Yes.
17 Sir?
18 WHEREUPON:
19 MICHAEL HILL,
20 having been first duly sworn, testified before
21 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows:
22 MR. HILL: My name is Michael Hill.
23 I live at -- in the Ron Hill subdivision. I have
24 a couple questions.
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
52
1 This development is going to be
2 served by a well; is that correct?
3 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: No. What we were
4 talking about is there will be a municipal well
5 out here to get added water for the entire
6 community.
7 This will be a municipal water
8 and sanitary sewer system, so there will be
9 another deep well that will be located out here
10 to fill the reservoir and the water will be
11 treated.
12 MR. HILL: As a supplemental to the
13 city water system currently?
14 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: That's an addition
15 to the current city water system.
16 MR. HILL: All right. And then has
17 somebody taken a look at the potential effects on
18 local residents?
19 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Yes. We always
20 look to see what the drilling logs show as far as
21 the homes that are in the area and how deep their
22 wells are.
23 Traditionally the municipal
24 wells go to the deeper aquifers, they get below
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
53
1 the aquifers that most of your single- family
2 homes are tapped into.
3 MR. HILL: I have a couple more
4 questions. The overall site, you mentioned your
5 house break is 2.11?
6 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: The overall
7 density, yes.
8 MR. HILL: The density. And so that
9 works out to be approximately 2,000 houses?
10 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: I think our actual
11 number was 1,764.
12 MR. HILL: All right. For the areas
13 adjacent to Emmanuel on the north side, you've --
14 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Here?
15 MR. HILL: Yea, those lot sizes --
16 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: These are a
17 minimum 12,000. They will be -- There will be
18 larger lots in there, but the minimum will be
19 12,000.
20 MR. HILL: All right. And I have a
21 concern, I'm just adjacent to the Ron Hill
22 subdivision to the north, the northwest corner.
23 All of our lots are in the
24 vicinity of 45,000 to 60,000, or one -acre plus,
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
54
1 and due south of us approximately half a mile is
2 a new subdivision going in called Deer Farm --
3 Deer Creek Farm. Those are all greater than
4 45,000 square feet.
5 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Yes.
i
6 MR. HILL: The 12,000, we are
7 basically going to be looking out our windows at
8 quarter acre lots essentially.
9 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Yes.
10 MR. HILL: And I guess from a
11 resident's standpoint, my concern and some of my i
12 neighbors' concerns, is that you're going to
13 have -- I'd like to see those lots increased in
14 size, just to meet -- from a proportional
15 standpoint, dropping from acre -plus right across
16 the road down to quarter acre, I have some
17 concerns with property values and also population
18 density.
19 I mean, that's one of the
20 reasons I moved out here, and several of my
21 neighbors.
22 My only other comment with
23 respect to the public hearing was that only
24 selected people in my subdivision got letters and
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
55
1 they were the only people that visually had a
2 direct line of- sight -of this subdivision.
3 My neighbor just to the
4 southwest of me did not get a letter, and I
5 thought that was -- obviously for public hearings
6 I know that there is a minimum -- there is a
7 minimum requirement on who needs to be notified.
8 I would have thought the whole
9 subdivision should have been notified. But
I
10 that's just a statement, but it's my concern, and
11 I know some of my neighbors' concerns are the lot
12 sizes adjacent.
13 I can appreciate that the
14 development has put together a comprehensive plan
15 with respect to the northern -- north of Walker
16 Road all being single- family, which I am in favor
17 of obviously, but the lot size I would like to
18 see increased more someplace around a half acre
19 or 20,000 square feet, would be my preference, to
20 give more of a buffer.
21 Obviously as you get closer to
22 Route 47, that's going to be from a planning
I
23 standpoint, you know, are those lot sizes will go
24 down into townhome, but -- into townhome or
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
56
1 multi - family dwellings, but that would be my
2 concern and my neighbors' concerns.
3 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. Thank
4 you.
5 MR. HILL: All right.
6 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Thank you.
7 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: If I can just
8 address Mr. Hill's comment, obviously you are
I
9 aware of the fact that when you build in the
10 county and you are using a well and septic
i
11 system, because of health concerns they require a
12 bigger parcel.
13 MR. HILL: Sure, I do understand.
14 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: And when we
15 develop in urban settings such as the city and we
16 are extending public sewer and water, there is a
17 larger expense there to be able to extend those
18 systems, and by the same token, you have to look
19 at the relationship then of those lot sizes
20 because of the costs of the infrastructure
21 improvements, okay? So that's one aspect.
22 Another aspect that we
23 typically will look at is in this case the homes
24 in our development do not back up against your
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
57
1 subdivision.
2 There is a -- what I guess we
3 would call a collector road or a major collector
4 road in Emmanuel. That right -of -way separates
5 the land uses and can be considered a logical
6 transition between the land uses.
7 Additionally, we will do some
8 landscaping and screening on our side of the
9 right -of -way where we abut Emmanuel Road.
10 So there will be some things,
11 not only space, but there will be addition of the I
12 landscaping and possibly berming there to be able
13 to break up visually, plus -- we don't have the
I
14 layout for this area yet. You'll get a chance to
15 look at that.
16 MR. HILL: I understand that.
17 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: And so it may not
18 be that the lots will line up like soldier course
19 on the other side of the road.
20 There could be cul -de -sacs
21 where, you know, the lots pan out, and so until
22 we can get to that detail, I think if you could
23 be patient with us, you will be able to see some
24 more as we get further along.
i
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
58
1 MR. HILL: Sure, and I understand
2 that.
3 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: We appreciate your
4 comments.
5 MR. HILL: I just have one other
6 comment with respect to the berming on the side
7 of the road, and I can appreciate that, and I
8 understand you are in a preliminary stand --
9 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Concept.
10 MR. HILL: Right. Concept. You are
11 not in preliminary, right.
12 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Right.
13 MR. HILL: And there is going to be
14 a lot more development work taking place.
15 But with respect to elevation,
16 if you go into the Ron Hill subdivision -- Can I
17 borrow your pointer, please?
18 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Sure.
19 MR. HILL: All right. Right here in
20 the Ron Hill subdivision, that elevation
21 probably -- we have a retention pond that's
22 located right there.
I
23 There is probably 20 feet of
24 elevation drop from -- going from west to east
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
59
1 that slopes down, and you've got some elevation
2 in here, but pretty much from this area of the
3 subdivision really overlooks this whole area all
4 the way down, and so any type of berms, although
5 it does give a visual barrier, it's not -- when
6 you take into account that elevation change, I
7 don't think that's going to be an effective
8 measure to screen that -- you know, screen the
9 neighborhood.
10 And we expect to see houses; my
11 only request is that we try to space those houses
12 out a little bit more. Thanks.
13 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: And as far as the
14 notice, there is a 500 -foot notice requirement
15 and that's why, you know, one lot gets a notice
16 and another one doesn't.
17 MR. HILL: I understand.
18 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: And then, of
19 course, they publish in the newspaper. That's a
20 required notice by state statute. The other is
i
21 the city asks us to send an additional --
22 MR. HILL: That was strictly a
23 personal comment on that. I understand the --
24 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: We didn't mean to
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
60
1 exclude anybody.
2 MR. HILL: I do understand the --
3 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: They draw the line
4 at 500 feet.
5 MR. HILL: I understand that.
6 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Marty, you had
7 your --
8 MR. SCHWARTZ: Yes, Tom. Just real
9 quick, though. I heard how --
10 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Marty, can we
11 get your name for the record, please?
12 WHEREUPON:
13 MARTY SCHWARTZ,
14 having been first duly sworn, testified before
15 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows:
16 MR. SCHWARTZ: I'm sorry, Marty
17 Schwartz. I heard how you were addressing the
18 pipeline south of Walker Road.
19 I was wondering how you were
20 going to address the one to the north.
21 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Do you want to
22 point out which one, sir?
23 MR. SCHWARTZ: Well, it's going to
24 run -- it's going to run --
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
61
1 MR. MARTIN: Right there. It's in
2 the creek -- it's in that creek corridor buffer.
3 This is south of that, right?
4 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: I don't know if
5 you heard Mr. Martin. That's part of the open
6 space area.
7 MR. SCHWARTZ: Okay. All right.
8 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Gentleman right
9 here in the front row had your hand up.
10 WHEREUPON:
i
11 STEVE ELLIS,
12 having been first duly sworn, testified before
13 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows:
14 MR. ELLIS: My name is Steve Ellis.
15 I live on McCannon Road in Seward Township
16 downstream from the Aux Sable, and I am a member
17 of the Aux Sable coalition as well.
18 The question I have doesn't
19 relate to that. From a conceptual standpoint it
20 was mentioned earlier that, let's see, back -load
21 houses are preferred, and I think they are great.
22 I don't think anybody thinks a
23 garage door is pretty. Why don't you make them
24 all back load?
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
62
1 The town of Yorkville is -- has
2 a lot of side drives and alleys and they work --
3 they work very well. I'd like for you to
4 consider that.
5 My second question is public
6 transportation. Is there any thought that this
7 area might be suitable for public transportation
8 at some point? Thank you.
9 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Any comments to
10 that, John?
11 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Yes. We try to
12 offer a variety of project. As you might
13 imagine, you can get a little different floor
14 plan with the front -load townhome. If you are
15 aware of other projects, many of them are three
16 level.
17 It's just kind of a personal
18 preference, depending on the age and the
19 lifestyle of those that want it.
20 So we try to offer both
21 products in the attached components of our plan,
22 but obviously we will be looking at how we lay
23 those out, what the relationship of the townhomes
24 are to the road, and John Martin has worked on
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
63
1 many, many developments and he will work with us
2 as we develop the product so that it's situated
3 on the lots to take advantage of curvatures --
4 curvature in the streets and that sort of thing
5 to break up that as you spoke of.
6 MR. ELLIS: Thank you.
7 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: As far as public
8 transportation, John or Mayor, I don't know -- I
9 don't know what the future plans of public
10 transportation in the area.
11 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Well, currently I
12 know the RTA is looking at someday expanding out
13 into this area, but currently we do not fall
14 within the regional transportation area which
15 serves the collar counties of Chicago.
16 It actually takes a vote of the
17 General Assembly to bring us in because it
18 requires an additional tax fee charged, so we
19 currently are not in that area.
20 Like I say, I know they are
21 looking at it. I think the last time I talked to
22 the director he mentioned to me that they were
I
23 looking at going as far west as LaSalle County
24 and as far north as Rockford someday. That's
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
64
1 about as much as I can tell you.
2 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Lady in the next
3 to back row, please.
4 WHEREUPON:
5 ROSE WHITE,
6 having been first duly sworn, testified before
7 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows:
8 MS. WHITE: My name is Rose White
9 and I have a property on Caton Farm adjacent to
10 the development.
11 I have a question first about
12 the high school. Would this be located right on
13 Route 47?
14 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Well, the land, of
15 course, goes up to Route 47. You can see it in
16 this large green area. That's the high school
17 site.
18 But where physically the
19 buildings would be located, that would be a
20 school district decision. That would not be our
I
21 decision.
22 MS. WHITE: Would there have to be
I
23 another stoplight or would traffic be able to
24 come in on another road and then go to the high
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
65
1 school?
2 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: There will be
3 internal roadways. Like, for instance, you know,
4 off of Wheeler Road, there will be internal roads
5 that will go get into the site, and as the
6 property to the north develops, this area, there
7 will be a road network that will continue out of
8 our development and may skirt along the edge of
9 the high school site and eventually Ament Road,
10 so there will be areas for the school buses and
11 students to be able to get to the high school
12 through other avenues other than direct access to
13 Route 47.
14 MS. WHITE: Because I would like to
15 suggest as a mother of high schoolers that if you
16 have ever been to our high school, I just think
17 it would be a very bad idea for the entrance to
18 be on Route 47.
19 Number one, there is just so
20 much traffic that needs to go, we don't need that
21 extra clogging up there.
22 The other thing is safety for
23 young people that are walking along the road and
24 dropping kids off, and it would -- I would like
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
66
1 to suggest that they not have an entrance on
2 Route 47.
3 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: I think we have
4 an answer from our consulting engineer sitting
5 over -- John?
i
6 MR. WHITEHOUSE: There would not be
7 a school entrance to Illinois Route 47, period.
8 MS. WHITE: And I have one other
9 question. Down on the west side of the
10 development on Caton Farm, is that some kind
i
11 of -- I couldn't see everything when you were
12 doing it.
13 Is that a housing development
14 on your southwest --
15 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Right here?
16 MS. WHITE: Yes.
17 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Yes, that's
18 residential.
19 MS. WHITE: And what kind of
20 residential?
21 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Single- family
22 detached.
23 MS. WHITE: Okay. And we do have
24 livestock, so they would be able to get some
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
67
1 protection for our livestock?
2 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: What type of
3 livestock?
4 MS. WHITE: Horses, raise dogs, but
5 even for the protection of other people, I would
6 probably like to see some type of fencing.
7 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: We anticipate
8 probably the development moving from the north to
9 the south, so that's going to be considerably
10 further into the time span of development of this
11 community, but obviously as we start to get down
12 here in preliminary, and certainly at final, we
13 can look to see at that point in time what type
14 of livestock you still have and then we'll just
i
15 have to work with you to see how that could be
16 addressed.
17 MS. WHITE: Is there is a person we
18 can contact with that?
19 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Well, we will be
20 back before the Plan Commission on numerous
21 occasions and certainly we can give you a card so
22 you can stay in contact with us, okay?
23 MS. WHITE: Okay. Thank you.
24 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Gentleman right

2 WHEREUPON:
3 JIM AIKEN,
4 having been first duly sworn, testified before
5 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows:
6 MR. AIKEN: My name is Jim Aiken and
7 I concur with this gentleman. We moved out in
8 the area four years ago and we live on Emmanuel.
9 We have about four acres out there.
10 When you start coming to the
i
11 north side, the subdivision as you talked about,
12 it's nice, but we moved away from the nice old
13 town, quaint old town, until they started doing
14 something similar to this. Naperville.
15 I grew up there when I was
16 three years old. In '71 I went to college and
17 moved away and is it has sprawled since that
18 point.
19 I think on the north part of
20 this, go for bigger lots, half acre. Behind us,
21 behind Ron Hill, there is another subdivision
22 they put in, I can't at this think of the name
23 right now --
24 MR. POCIUS: Yes.
i
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
69
1 MR. AIKEN: And that has large lots,
2 and with that in mind, the impact is coming back
3 to the property owners on the north side.
4 I think keeping in line they
5 ought to be maybe a little bit bigger and keep
6 the impact a little bit less on that point.
7 That's one of the comments that I have.
8 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. Thanx.
9 you. Gentleman in the back.
10 WHEREUPON:
s
11 GARY PRETHOUR,
12 having been first duly sworn, testified before
13 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows:
I
I
14 MR. PRETHOUR: Gary Prethour. Maybe
15 just three points of clarification. Did I
16 understand the proposal is for 47 to go from a
17 four -lane road from Caton Farm north and then
18 funnel back into two lanes, Ament Road?
19 Number two, we've heard about
20 the land for the high school. Who pays for the
21 high school?
22 Number three, what plans are
23 there for transition between the houses and the
24 farming community that surrounds the whole
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
70
1 development?
2 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. Who
3 would care to handle the Route 47 issue?
4 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: That would be
5 Louie Aboona.
6 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay.
7 MR. ABOONA: What we are proposing
8 is to have 47 ultimately projected to be a
9 four -lane roadway continuous from Wheeler Road
10 all the way to Caton Farm, the reason -- the
11 reason being is that as you move south of the
12 development, especially in proximity to the
13 commercial parcels, there is additional access
14 roads that are being introduced and, therefore,
15 making -- necessitating 47 to become a four -lane
16 roadway.
17 As you move north, you can see
18 from our plan that we are not introducing any
19 additional access roads between the major
20 east /west roads, Wheeler and Ament, and so forth,
21 so we are not proposing to make 47 a multi -lane
22 roadway mid - block; however, at the intersections,
23 as I stated earlier, we are looking at
24 signalizing those intersections and providing
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
71
1 additional lanes on 47 in terms of turn lanes, as
2 well as two lanes.
3 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay.
4 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: To answer your
5 question about who pays, well, we have a
6 referendum coming up. We want you to vote yes,
7 yes.
8 I am a resident of Yorkville.
9 I don't have children in the school system, never
10 did. But as a public, we have to promote our
11 public education, and so there will be a
12 combination of development fees by all the
13 developers, impact fees, the city has these as
14 requirements, and so we will be paying those
15 fees, and as more developments come on, more of
16 those fees come in.
17 As you know, it's not the
18 city's responsibility to take care of education,
19 it's our school board, and I know they are
20 working hard to do it, but as with anything, you
21 know, it takes a budget and takes funds to be
22 able to run it and hire good teachers, so I think
23 that over the course of history we have shown
24 that in the developing communities they have been
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 =0030
72
1 able to keep up with building the schools.
2 Is it cheap? No. Nothing is
3 cheap. But certainly it's important I think that
4 we have quality education, and so we certainly
5 expect that we would support the education in the
6 Yorkville School District.
7 As far as the right, there will
8 be a right -to -farm statement. It's part of our
9 packet. It will go on all of our subdivision
10 plats, it will be part of the record, recognizing
i
11 that when you move into a development like this
12 that they should be aware that normal
13 agricultural practices may result in occasional
14 smells, dust, sights, noise and unique hours of
15 operation that are not typical in other zoning
16 districts.
17 So whether they will understand
18 it is another thing, but we certainly do put that
19 statement in, and that will be explained to
20 residents as they move into the development.
21 MR. HOMERDING: I just have a
22 question --
23 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Sir?
24 WHEREUPON:
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
73
1 BRIAN HOMERDING,
2 having been first duly sworn, testified before
3 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows:
4 MR. HOMERDING: Brian Homerding.
5 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: I'm sorry, let's
6 get the name again.
7 MR. HOMERDING: Brian Homerding.
8 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay, Brian.
9 MR. HOMERDING: On your south part,
10 where is your retention at? By the commercial?
11 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Immediately to the
12 west. This area -- the large area has been
13 designated for the immediate run -off and then
14 there is some more open space here, so these will
15 be planted with certain plant species, hardy
16 species, that will be able to an act as filters
17 for the water when it's toward the drainages.
18 MR. HOMERDING: Are you going to
19 have a retention pond there?
20 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: At this point in
21 time we can't determine whether it will be wet or
22 what we call as blue green or occasionally
23 inundated and then dry, so -- But right now this
24 is shown as probably not going to be a wet bottom
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
74
1 like this one, it will be a permanent body of
2 water up here, but these other areas we are
3 showing probably will be more of what we call
4 blue green, subject to inundation, they hold the
5 water and it drains off.
I
6 MR. HOMERDING: You are going to
7 have a lot of blacktop and rooftops there for
8 just blue green.
9 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Well, that's
10 correct. It's designed to take all the
11 coefficients to run off per the city's
12 ordinances, and Mr. Whitehouse will review all
13 those plans to make certain that we comply WITH
14 all those regulations.
15 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: And then some.
16 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. Yes,
17 ma'am.
18 MS. KASESKA: Kaseska. What I would
19 like to know is when do you anticipate ground
20 breaking and when do the houses go up and what
21 order do they go up?
22 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: I think I
23 indicated the development will follow the
24 utilities, so right now our planned corridor is
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
75
1 to bring the utilities along Route 47 on the east
2 side to Ament Road.
3 Richard Marker is in with plans
4 with the development of this property, so some of
5 those utilities would be extended in.
6 We will tie into -- this may or
7 may not be the ultimate stand pipe location,
8 somewhere in this area that will be it, but right
9 now we are showing it as a possible location
10 there will be a well dug, there will be a
11 treatment facility built with it, so the northern
12 portion will more than likely be first to develop
13 and then we will develop in a southerly direction
14 from there.
15 When would we start? That's
16 going to depend on the utility availability. I
17 don't anticipate there will be anything in 2006.
18 Wishful thinking would say 2007. Practically
19 speaking, it's probably more like 2008. And we
20 would expect maybe a ten -year to whatever
21 build -out.
22 MS. KASESKA: So basically you
23 would typically start up by Ron Hill then?
24 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Not necessarily.
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
76
1 It could be one of these neighborhoods down
2 around the central portion, maybe off of Wheeler
3 Road, that would be the more likely.
4 Unless another developer comes
5 in and does something between us and where the
6 utilities are coming in, the practicality of
7 picking up utilities here and extending them all
8 the way out just to do a couple neighborhoods
9 here maybe, maybe not likely.
10 MS. KASESKA: So in the back of my
11 head am I understanding right, you are going to
12 develop this Wheeler Road pretty quick?
I
13 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: That may be an
14 initial area that we would be looking at
I
15 probably.
I
16 MS. KASESKA: Thank you.
17 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Anybody else?
18 Yes, sir.
19 MR. STUCK: With some high interest
20 rates coming out --
21 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: I'm sorry, your
22 name, please?
23 WHEREUPON:
24 GEORGE STUCK,
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
77
1 having been first duly sworn, testified before
2 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows:
3 MR. STUCK: George Stuck. With the
4 high interest rates going up lately, we have some
5 nice Developments, Tanglewood Trails, I think
6 John Deere Crossings are in there.
7 They are not selling as fast as
8 they -- We are going to have a lot of empty lots.
9 You know, right now this is not needed, period.
10 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. Is there
11 any other questions, something we have not
12 touched on? I don't want to keep repeating
13 things.
14 Yes, ma'am. Lady over here.
15 WHEREUPON:
16 MICHELLE AIKEN,
17 having been first duly sworn, testified before
18 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows:
19 MS. AIKEN: Michelle Aiken. I would
20 just like to know, Emmanuel Road, as the traffic
21 gets worse on it, who is going to be responsible
22 for the upkeep and maintenance of that road? Who
23 pays for that in the long run?
24 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: As we annex
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
78
1 property to the City of Yorkville, the existing
2 township roads, where it's adjacent, we must
3 annex to the far side of any adjacent road;
4 therefore, where we are adjacent to in your case
5 Emmanuel, we will be annexing to the far side.
6 What that means is that that
7 roadway then comes under the jurisdiction of the
8 City of Yorkville, and so the City of Yorkville
9 would be responsible for the care and maintenance
10 after the developer does the necessary
11 improvements as outlined by what the city will
12 require and we construct them, we put up letters
13 of credit to guaranty them, and there is a
14 maintenance period for a year after that before
15 they actually get turned over, so there is a
16 process it has to go through.
17 So the answer is ultimately new
18 roads to be built, the ones that are adjacent to
i
19 will be annexed, and they will all be under the
20 responsibility of the City of Yorkville.
21 MS. AIKEN: I am an unincorporated
22 property. Will that require that we be
23 incorporated?
24 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: No. I believe
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 --0030
79
1 lady over here had her hand up.
2 WHEREUPON:
3 ANNETTE HATNER,
4 having been first duly sworn, testified before
5 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows:
i
6 MS. HATNER: Annette Hatner. I hear
7 you talked about the meetings to talk about water
8 and sewer, utilities. How can I be included in
9 those meetings or be notified of them?
10 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: I think, of
i
11 course, all the Planning Commission meetings are
12 public.
13 MS. HATNER: These are private
14 meetings I believe you are talking about.
15 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: These would be
16 meetings where we would come in and submit plans
17 and the city's engineering consultant, EDI, of
18 Sugar Grove, they will be the primary reviewers
19 of those and be making comments back to us as
20 recommendations, so typically -- I don't know if
21 you want to see the engineering plans when we
22 make a submittal.
23 Anything that is submitted to
24 the city becomes public record and you'd be
=0030
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983
80
1 entitled to come in and look at them, and if you
2 want to get copies, there may be a charge or
3 something to reproduce them, but they would be
4 able to be looked at.
5 MS. AIKEN: Or can I give you my
6 name or number?
7 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: I won't promise
8 that. I am not in every meeting. It depends on
9 which consultant is coming in for a particular
10 meeting. Sometimes they're spur of the moment.
11 But certainly the general
12 meetings that are held, you certainly can
13 probably stay in touch with the staff here at the
14 city and they can let you know when like a
15 planning council meeting is scheduled on Thursday
16 mornings or when we will be going to Planning
17 Commission.
18 We don't want to exclude you
19 obviously, but we can't guarantee you that we
20 would be able to get you notice to get you every
21 meeting that's held.
22 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Lady right
23 through here, please.
24 WHEREUPON:
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
81
1 JILL STUCK,
2 having been first duly sworn, testified before
3 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows:
4 MS. STUCK: Jill Stuck. We live on
5 Emmanuel Road probably about halfway between
6 Wheeler and Ament.
7 You as developers are
8 presenting a wonderful plan, it looks real nice.
9 I would -- Hopefully, I hope you appreciate the
10 fact that Yorkville has and is a farming
11 community.
12 We do farm, we have livestock,
13 we have been through this before. We have a
14 subdivision going in next to us. We asked for
15 protection for our livestock. What we got we are
16 kind of unhappy with.
17 As far as the lot size, I can
18 well appreciate your comments, sir, we -- our
19 house, we have a ten -acre lot that our house is
20 on.
21 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Back in here off
22 of the road?
23 MS. STUCK: Yes. And years ago when
24 we bought the property, it was our understanding
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
82
1 that from Yorkville south it would increase in
2 lot size, so now we are going ten acres to a
3 quarter acre? That doesn't --
4 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Did you say ten
5 years? How long?
6 MR. STUCK: About ten years.
I
7 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: See, obviously a
8 lot of things happen in ten years.
9 MS. STUCK: I understand that,
10 but --
11 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: A lot of things
12 happens in one year. But the City of Yorkville
13 recently had planning consultants look at this
I
14 entire south area to say, okay, what kind of
15 transportation system will we need, what
16 ultimately will be the land uses, where should
17 the commercial nodes be out here and, as a
18 result, they have put together a plan, and it's
19 called the Comprehensive Plan, they are available
20 here at the city, and what we have done is taken
21 that plan and then incorporated within the design
22 guidelines of the plan our land uses for this
23 area.
24 It's inevitable as our cities
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
83
1 expand that they will come out to meet and in
2 some instances the farm owners ultimately decide
3 that they would rather farm back out in the open
4 areas and sometimes sell their farms.
5 MS. STUCK: So we have to move. We
6 have to move.
7 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: No, no, we're not
8 saying you have to move, but obviously the owners
9 of these properties are entitled to the highest
10 and best use of their land. I
11 You have chosen your lifestyle
12 and your acreage that you enjoy and that's
13 wonderful, but then there are others in the
14 community that are looking for a little different
i
15 lifestyle.
16 Not everyone likes to mow an
17 acre or two acres and ten acres and cut that two
18 or three times a week in the summer, so you have
19 to provide a number of lot sizes and housing
20 options for the expanding metro area.
21 And Yorkville is like many of
22 the other communities in the area; they are being
23 impacted by people who wish to locate in this
24 part of the county and state.
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
84
1 MS. STUCK: Oh, I appreciate that,
2 but I guess I am with them. I just think it
3 would be kind of simple to increase your lot
4 sizes.
5 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: I understand what
6 you are saying, but, again, this is a different
7 lifestyle choice and the incorporation of urban
8 designs and urban systems dictate that this is
9 going to be a city, a community.
10 That doesn't mean that you
11 can't peacefully co- exist, I don't know if you
12 are familiar -- Well, one gentleman grew up in
13 Naperville, but Wildwood, they were able to
14 maintain their one -acre lots. They are
15 surrounded over there, I'm starting to see some
16 tear - downs.
17 MR. AIKEN: People are coming out
18 here to get away from that, and what we are doing
19 here is doing what they've got.
20 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: That may be your
21 understanding of it, but the fact of the matter
22 is there are many other advantages to living in
23 Yorkville other than being located on a one or
24 two or five -acre parcel.
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
85
1 MS. AIKEN: But you say people have
2 these choices. Well, it looks like our choices
3 have kind of been taken away.
4 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. Are there
5 other things that have not been addressed?
6 Through here, please?
7 WHEREUPON:
8 PATTY SHOBERT,
9 having been first duly sworn, testified before
10 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows:
11 MS. SHOBERT: Patty Shobert. I have
12 a question. On a different map you showed the
13 Wheeler Road door coming out differently at
14 Emmanuel Road.
15 Is this exact? Is this the
16 correct map?
17 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: This is the
18 correct alignment that we are proposing.
19 Initially the city's
20 comprehensive plan showed it a little
21 differently, but based on our assessment on some
22 of the areas out here, some of the floodplain
23 areas adjacent to the mid branch of Aux Sable
24 Creek, and the fact that you can't take these
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
86
1 lines at these scales, I mean, I think the
2 gentleman pointed out how many miles this is.
3 So while this looks very tight
4 and close, it in reality is not, because those of
5 you that live out there, you know how far away
6 you are talking here.
7 But the line on the
8 Comprehensive Plan, you know, if you took it
9 literally, it ran through a part of the cemetery,
10 and so obviously you are not going to do that, so
11 what we have done is tried to locate the road to
12 minimize the impacts on the Aux Sable watershed
13 and floodplain areas, and certainly, you know, we
14 weren't going to try to push the road through the
15 cemetery.
16 So this is what we think is a
17 reasonable alignment for the extension of the
18 road.
19 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. Far back.
20 MS. WHITE: Me?
21 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Yes.
22 MS. WHITE: I am thinking about all
23 the proposed stoplights. When you think about
24 all the other communities along Route 47, Route
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
87
1 47 is a main route that is used for people who
2 commute far, it's not just used for our
3 community, several people in my family even.
4 I am concerned about that many
5 stoplights in such close proximity. Is there any
6 way that some of that could be changed?
7 Every time a town starts doing
8 this, it just makes -- you know, if a person has
9 an hour commute, then they are commuting an hour
10 and 20 minutes, and there is very few main roads
11 left now for people to take as a main one to use.
12 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Any lights that
13 would go on Route 47, they have to meet certain
14 criteria that the state looks at before they will
15 approve a light at any particular location.
16 So we just can't decide gee, it
17 will be nice to have a light and put one here and
18 another one here and another one. Warrants have
19 to be met and then approval from IDOT.
20 And then to try to alleviate
21 your concern about in the end we want to move
22 traffic, what we do is we interconnect the
23 signals so that you try to gauge based on the
24 amount of traffic that's coming on the side
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
88
1 streets, keep the main arterial open and moving
2 traffic so that you don't have to stop here and
3 then have to stop here and then have to stop
4 here.
5 You want to move the traffic so
6 you interconnect those signals. They have
7 sensors that pick up the volumes that are waiting
8 at these cross streets, try to keep the green as
9 long as they can on the major thoroughfare.
10 MS. WHITE: And also, just for the
11 record, I know our family agrees with the bigger
12 lot sizes. We are not in favor of duplexes at
13 all, and we agree that the southern portion of
14 Yorkville, what's here has been the bigger lot
15 sizes and we just do not -- especially the
16 duplexes. We are totally against the duplexes.
17 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Just as a point of
•
18 clarification, we are not proposing duplexes in
19 the development. There was an earlier plan --
20 MS. WHITE: On the southern part?
21 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: We have what we
22 call a courthome product and we have what's
23 called a townhome product. Those are not duplex
24 units. They are attached single- family product,
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
89
1 but they are not duplexes.
2 MS. WHITE: Okay. Well, it's high
3 density, okay? It's almost the same.
4 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: If you want to say
5 it's high density, I would have to respectfully
6 disagree with you, it's not high density, and in
7 light of the overall density, it's a very low
8 density, as 2.11.
9 Compared to a five -acre tract,
10 you're right, that seems like high density, but
11 it's not in an urban setting.
12 MS. WHITE: It's very high density
13 for this overall neighborhood, and I would agree
14 with the one -acre minimum lot size.
15 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Somebody over
16 here, please. Very back.
17 WHEREUPON:
18 KEN BENSON,
19 having been first duly sworn, testified before
20 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows:
21 MR. BENSON: Ken Benson. Quick
22 question. You said you were mentioning about
I
23 moving traffic through. Are there any plans --
24 and maybe the city can address this -- for
I II
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
90
1 Route 47 north of 71 for 1700 homes to come in,
2 how we are going to get the traffic through
3 Yorkville to the tollways where most of these
4 people are probably going to work?
5 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Art, would
6 you --
7 MAYOR PROCHASKA: I can tell you
8 what we know. The governor has put over
9 $18,000,000 in the budget to widening 47 from 71
10 to Kennedy Road. That is where they have done
i
11 the -- they have been doing the engineering for
12 the last six years.
13 Unfortunately, you may or may
14 not be aware, there is disagreement between the
15 General Assembly and the governor as to the
16 budgets and what gets approved. The General
17 Assembly has not approved the budget.
18 The federal government also put
19 in another $4,000,000 towards that project, so
20 those are -- and again, they are there, as soon
21 as our state legislators and the governor come to
22 some agreement as to free up those funds.
23 MR. BENSON: I guess part of the
24 concern I have is trying to get through, it backs
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
91
1 up coming into Yorkville through the schools in
2 the morning. It takes, you know, 15, 20 minutes
3 to get through town, and then also backs up at
4 Route 30 all the way back to Galena Road.
5 It's huge traffic, and I know I
6 go on 126 because those people are going to work
7 in the suburbs I imagine that are coming out
8 there this way, and you can't get onto 55 from
9 126 either.
10 So my other question, is this
I
11 going to be an SSA or SA community?
12 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: There is a lot of
13 confusion on the different labelings. The
14 municipality will require us to have what's
15 called a backup dormant SSA to cover the
16 maintenance of all the common open areas in the
17 event that the homeowner's association fails to
18 do that. Okay? That's one type of SSA.
19 There are other kinds of
20 special tax areas where you can fund some
21 infrastructure improvements upfront by selling
22 bonds and guarantying the payment by the actual
23 homeowners with their tax bills, so it hasn't
24 been decided yet what the financing --
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
92
1 MR. BENSON: You don't know about
2 this?
3 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: We don't know
4 about that at this time.
5 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. Far back
6 row? And I trust we are not repeating ourselves
7 again. Is there something new and different that
8 we haven't talked about?
9 MR. WHITE: Yes, it is.
10 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: If so, please.
11 MR. WHITE: My name is Ted White.
12 The lower blue green area you were talking about
13 right down there, who is going to ultimately
14 maintain that and monitor it?
15 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: This particular
16 one, depending on who drains into it, it could be
17 a combination of a homeowner's association, in
18 other words, the residential users, along with a
19 property owner's association that would maintain
20 the commercial area, sometimes depending on how
21 much volume from the detention of the commercial
22 area goes into it, that could be solely
23 maintained by that association, and the
24 residential would take care of theirs. Sometimes
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
93
1 they are a combination.
2 We would look at that as we get
3 down in our engineering designs, but again, there
4 would be the backup SSA's to take care of that in
5 the event that there was a failure.
6 And just to point out to you is
7 that the individual homeowners, they don't
8 maintain it, they hire a company that is skilled
9 at maintaining the plants like that --
10 MR. WHITE: I understand.
11 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: -- and cleaning
12 the systems and that sort of thing, and they are
13 contracted on an annual basis to do that.
14 MR. WHITE: I understand that. I
15 have seen subdivisions where this blue green
16 proposal, they put the plants in, the plants dry
17 up, the plants die, and then it's left to be mud,
18 swamp, and that's the way it was left, and I
19 don't want to see that happen.
20 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: You have to design
21 the facility correctly. If they are
22 water - seeking plants that are put in there, it
23 has to be designed so that there is enough
24 inundation to be able to do that or that the
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
94
1 plants can withstand a certain dry period.
2 So this technology is expanding
3 and coming along at a rapid pace now. Some of
4 the earlier attempts weren't as good, and now
5 they are actually growing certain species of
6 plants designed for some of these systems.
7 There is a company over in
8 Indiana, James New, that has a nursery that
9 raises some of these things.
10 So the technology is getting
11 better and better. There is more engineering
12 companies that are involved in the design of
13 these systems, ecologically speaking, and
14 environmentally sensitive areas. It's amazing
15 what can be done now. But you're right, that's
16 been a problem in some cases.
17 MR. WHITE: Thank you very much.
18 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Right here.
I
19 MS. AIKEN: Michelle Aiken. No
20 disrespect to the developer, sir, but can the
21 city tell me why this is such an urgent matter,
22 why this needs to be done now?
23 Is there something that we'll
24 be missing out on or some negative impact that
I
i
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
95
I
I
1 will happen to the city if we do not approve any
2 of this project at all?
3 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Who wants to
4 take that?
5 MR. JONES: That's what we've got a
6 mayor for.
7 MAYOR PROCHASKA: There are several
8 issues here. First of all, any property owner
9 has the right to request to annex into the city
10 of Yorkville, and that's what's happened here.
11 We are seeing it happen all
12 over, not just in Yorkville, but Plano,
13 Montgomery, Sugar Grove, Joliet, everywhere.
14 It's happening.
15 This is an area that has been
16 identified in our Comprehensive Plan in our area
17 so that they have come to the City of Yorkville.
18 At this point in time there are
19 no boundary agreements or anything with anybody
20 out here. It could go to some other town if they
21 so choose; however, obviously it would make sense
22 as Yorkville has the utilities there, so that's
23 why they want to come here.
24 From the city's point of view,
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
96
1 we look at it as it does meet the Comprehensive
2 Plan.
3 What we are looking at is the
4 logical growth out of the -- as the city grows --
5 And the city is going to grow. I mean, the
6 cities have grown in this area for 180 years, so
7 this is expansion, again, and as far as is there
8 any rush to get it through, I don't think this
9 has been rushing, it's -- I think --
10 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: We've spent two
11 years so far developing our plan.
12 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Yes. I mean, it's
13 not something that's being rushed through, it's
14 something going through a process and being
15 checked, obviously asking residents and people in
16 the area to come forth and give comments so that
17 those can be incorporated into it.
18 So it's not, it's simply --
19 it's a developer asking to develop within the
20 City of Yorkville.
21 Could the city say no? There
22 is no legal thing that I know of that the city is
23 required to annex any property, but, again, when
24 you see people coming in and you put together a
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
97
I
1 plan and come to the city and meet that plan,
2 then I think in all fairness to -- just to like
3 anybody else in the city that needs to be
4 considered, and that's what's happening here,
i
5 it's going through a process of consideration.
6 Again, it's a logical extension of the city.
7 The only thing that we see at
8 this point in this area is there are other
9 communities that are beginning to grow into this
10 area; one in particular that -- while it's not
11 immediately in this area but is certainly coming,
12 we already overlap our planning area with the
13 City of Joliet.
14 It is a little further to the
15 east. Where Yorkville shows one and a half to
16 two units per acre, actually it's less than that,
17 it's one and a half to 1.75 units per acre, the
18 City of Joliet shows 3.3 units per acre.
19 The areas within the Yorkville
20 School District, part of the theory of the city
21 over the years is as the city grows to try to
22 protect those areas that obviously affect
23 everybody in the area because once -- if it goes
24 some other place, we have no protection.
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
98
1 So, again, at this point it's
2 just coming through the system as a request, but,
3 you know, I don't know what would happen if it
4 didn't annex. It may not be part of Yorkville in
5 the future. So I guess that's the best answer I
6 can give you at this time.
7 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: One more time.
8 MS. KASESKA: Okay. Thank you.
9 Appreciate it. Okay. You are proposing to go
10 from A -1 to R -2. My question is am I going to be
I
11 able to still be AG -1?
12 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Yes. There is no
13 extension to annex your parcel to the city.
14 MS. KASESKA: So I will not --
I
15 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: You will continue
16 to be Kendall County and retain your zoning,
17 unless for whatever reason you request a change
18 or the county proposes a change.
19 MS. KASESKA: Now, I will be
20 unincorporated?
21 MR. PHILIPCHUCK: Yes, yes.
22 MS. KASESKA: And the only other
O
23 thing -- You are the mayor?
24 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Yes.
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
99
1 MS. KASESKA: Okay. A big question,
2 I'm sure everybody else has, too, is you always
3 read in the newspaper and hear in the TV, all
4 these people are coming, they've got over 1700
5 people coming.
6 How are they going to drink
7 water? Where is the water going to come from?
8 Our aquifers and everything are drying up.
I
9 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Actually Yorkville
10 is part of a study group with the county and some
11 other municipalities in the area and looking at
12 the viability of the aquifers, how long they are
13 good for and what's happening.
14 I guess that is still
15 happening; however, one of the things that they
16 are noticing is as some of the communities to the
17 east have now tapped into the Chicago water, they
18 are now not drawing from the aquifers that they
19 were previously, and so there is a whole mix of
20 things that are going on.
21 MS. KASESKA: Okay. I also heard
22 where Lake Michigan is going to start cutting
23 that off.
24 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Well, they can't
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 =0030
100
1 add any more, but it already goes as far west as
2 Plainfield, so Plainfield could go up --
3 Basically our agreement with Plainfield is they
4 could go up to Grove Road, so theoretically I
5 guess Chicago water could go out as far as Grove
6 Road if Plainfield ever went that far west
7 someday.
8 I don't know that they will,
9 but, you know, again, all I can tell you is what
10 our agreements are with them. So we are looking
11 at those things.
12 UNIDENTIFIED AUDIENCE MEMBER: Maybe
13 you can answer this. Lately, I don't know about
14 your taxes, but mine have gone up considerably,
15 and with all this new infrastructure, who's going
16 to pay for it? You know, every pay raise I've
17 been getting the last couple years goes to
18 Yorkville.
19 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Where do you live,
20 sir?
21 UNIDENTIFIED AUDIENCE MEMBER: Well,
22 I am not in Yorkville, but whatever improvements
23 you have, it goes to there.
24 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Okay. Well,
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
101
1 understand, and we have to be very clear, none of
2 your money comes to Yorkville.
3 UNIDENTIFIED AUDIENCE MEMBER: Well,
4 it goes to the school system.
5 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Okay. Well, that
6 is a separate district, and that's fine, and we
7 do look at -- again, we do collect fees. We
8 are -- In fact, the City Council is currently
I
9 considering a new fee be added on to buildings,
10 where if that passes, it continues on a by permit
11 amount, just to get a permit in the City of
12 Yorkville will be over $30,000.
13 UNIDENTIFIED AUDIENCE MEMBER: We
14 can only take so much, you know. I mean, another
15 two years you may be asking for more money,
16 another two years you may be asking for more
17 money. Endless.
18 MR. CROUCH: As a member of the
19 school board, I just want to tell you, I think if
20 you check your tax rate, the tax rate for the
21 last two, three years has gone down for the
22 school district.
23 UNIDENTIFIED AUDIENCE MEMBER: But
24 the amount is -- I still have to pay the same
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
102
1 amount.
2 MR. CROUCH: That would be a
3 reflection on your assessed value.
4 UNIDENTIFIED AUDIENCE MEMBER: Yes,
5 it's because land value keeps going up. Well, I
6 can't eat land value, I can't pay the bills with
7 land value.
8 MR. CROUCH: Sir, sir, I understand
9 that. I know you can't sell your property to pay
10 your tax bill. I really do understand that. All
11 I'm pointing out is your tax rate is going down,
12 not up.
13 UNIDENTIFIED AUDIENCE MEMBER: All
14 right. Well, it's just a concern.
15 MR. CROUCH: I understand that, and
16 I pay the same taxes, so I understand that real
17 well.
18 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. I'm going
19 to end this portion of this public hearing.
20 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Mr. Chairman, can
21 I just ask one thing for the people out here?
22 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Please.
23 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Is that we -- Just
24 so you know, the City does work with adjacent
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 --0030
103
1 land owners when development comes in, and, Mike,
2 if you recall, I think we were working with the
3 land over on the east side with a development
4 that came in and the land buffered the
5 development, and I would suggest that -- Travis
6 Miller is our community development director,
7 that you would leave your name with him, so that,
i
8 you know, again, as development happens, if you
9 want to have some conversation with him for the
10 land owners of the properties that would abut
11 that. Okay?
12 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. The
13 evening is getting late and we've got a lot of
14 work to do yet.
15 (WHEREUPON, a short
16 recess was taken)
17 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. Item two,
18 PC 2006 -08, Ocean Atlantic Chicago, LLC,
19 petitioners, has filed an application with the
20 United City of Yorkville, Kendall County,
21 Illinois, requesting an amendment to an
22 Annexation Agreement with regard to modifying
I
23 minimum lot area, minimum lot width, minimum side
24 yard, minimum exterior corner side yard, maximum
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
104
I
1 turn - around diameter length and minimum front,
2 side and rear yard setbacks.
3 The real property consists of
4 approximately 130.2 acres at the southeast corner
5 of Beecher Road and Corneils Road in the United
6 City of Yorkville, Kendall County, Illinois.
7 Dan, are you speaking for the
8 petitioner?
9 WHEREUPON:
i
10 DANIEL J. KRAMER,
11 having been first duly sworn, testified before
12 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows:
13 MR. KRAMER: I am. Thank you. My
14 name for the record is Daniel J. Kramer. My
15 address is 1107A South Bridge Street, Yorkville,
16 Illinois. I am an attorney licensed to practice
17 law and I represent the petitioners in this
18 matter.
19 This property, as most of you
20 would know from the Plan Commission, we used to
21 refer to as the Rosenwinkel parcel when it was
22 first annexed to the city probably about eight or
23 nine years ago as a manufacturing parcel, and
24 then as the name has changed out in that area and
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 =-0030
105
1 Inland took advantage of a floating or flex
2 zoning to change the northern part of Yorkville
3 Business Park on Caledonia, the Rosenwinkel
4 family came in last year, they requested that the
5 city rezone the 130 acres from manufacturing to
6 residential, and, of course, we appreciate that
7 on the city's behalf.
8 Since then the Rosenwinkel
I
9 family has sold that property to Ocean Atlantic
10 Chicagoland, which is the petitioner here, and I
11 have with me tonight Pat Hughes from Ocean
12 Atlantic, who would like to take a couple of
13 minutes to talk not only about this particular
14 Rosenwinkel parcel, just for the sake of clarity,
15 but also about the overall plan that Ocean
16 Atlantic has for the area.
17 When we were before you asking
18 for the zoning change, we had told you that it
19 was part of a much, much bigger design to bring a
20 large, upscale golf course community to the city.
21 They have been good for their
22 word and they're doing it, so it actually ties in
23 to the old petition this evening, so if I can
24 have Mr. Hughes.
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
106
1 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay.
2 WHEREUPON:
3 PAT HUGHES,
4 having been first duly sworn, testified before
5 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows:
6 MR. HUGHES: Thank you. Good
7 evening. As Dan said, I am Pat Hughes. I am
8 vice - president and general counsel of Ocean
9 Atlantic.
10 Along with Dan, I have with me
11 tonight Dave Foreman, who is with Ocean Atlantic
12 as well, as Chris Lannert and Greg Stevens from
13 the Lannert Group, and Kevin Sarafin and Ryan
14 Walters, who are our engineers from Cemcon.
15 As Dan said, I would like to
16 just take a few minutes if I could. As you can
17 see in your packets, we are presenting tonight on
18 what's called Westbury South Village and Westbury
19 East Village, and we have the pleasure tonight to
20 actually unveil for the first time formally what
21 is the overall Westbury development, in which
22 East Village and South Village are component
23 parts, the first two phases in the overall
24 development.
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
107
I
1 Okay. If you can look to the
2 left on the board here, this is Westbury.
3 Westbury is an approximately 1200 acre golf
4 course development, of which East Village, which
5 is right here on Route 47 and Galena, and South
6 Village, which we are on public hearing right
7 now, as Dan mentioned, is down here south of
8 Corneils, which is the Tammy and Michael
9 Rosenwinkel piece.
10 A few years back we came in for
11 site plan approval and had approval on the East
I
12 Village. At that time we called it the Westbury
13 Village.
14 Thereafter we went through the
15 process of acquiring or putting under contract
16 all this additional property so that we could
17 create the Westbury development, the Westbury
18 golf course development, and I just want to spend
19 a few minutes going through the overall so you
20 all can get a sense of how East Village and South
21 Village, which is up tonight, fits into our
22 entire scheme.
23 This portion here on Route 47
24 is 300 acres, it's called the East Village, and
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
108
1 we put in -- recently put an entry on this plan
2 off of 47 called Westbury Boulevard that runs
3 through and into the middle of our overall
4 development.
5 The overall development
6 consists of five villages: East Village, South
7 Village, what we call Middle Village, North
8 Village, and West Village.
I
9 This is the East Village, this
10 is the South Village, this here is the Middle
11 Village, this is the North Village, and this is
12 the West Village.
13 Each individual village will
14 have its own set of parks and amenities. For
15 example, each of the five villages will have its
16 own individual clubhouse just for that portion of
17 the development, and the entire development will
18 have a central clubhouse that will be set inside
19 the Middle Village area.
20 And how we envision is it now
21 is that there will be three buildings. There
I
22 will be a golf clubhouse that will be for golf
23 and for a banquet facility that we will locate
24 here in the center next to an overall clubhouse
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 =0030
109
i
i
1 that can be used by all the residents, which will
2 be probably somewhere around -- if it's one
3 building, 30,000 square feet of space with a
4 variety of pools and other water features and
5 bench areas and trellises and things of that
6 nature, and it will contain a children's
7 recreation area, activity centers inside the
8 buildings for kids and for teens, so that you can
9 get a lot of use centrally for all the use of all
10 the residents, but at the same time keeping in
11 mind that each individual village will have its
12 own smaller building, pool house, and pools in
13 their individual areas.
14 So there will be five or six
15 smaller clubhouses scattered throughout the
16 development, as well as the main clubhouse, which
17 will also include the golf clubhouse.
18 Throughout the center, coming
19 up around the North Village in through here, is
20 an 18 -hole golf course. That golf course is
21 currently being designed by Arthur Hills.
22 I think the course that most of
23 you would be familiar with here is the
24 Bolingbrook Golf Course that Arthur Hills did for
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
110
1 them that opened about two years ago, and the
2 golf course will be managed by Kemper Golf out of
3 Northbrook. They are a well -known national golf
4 management company.
5 So we will have golf that will
6 go through here, going up north towards what is
7 the Schultz and Feltes gravel pit now up to
i
8 Galena Road, and in this area here, just on the
9 southwest portion of where the clubhouse will be
10 and the golf clubhouse will be, there will be a
11 practice facility and a driving range for people
12 to come and practice and play, and I think the
13 last time I was before you on a concept plan we
14 mentioned that -- The entire point of this golf
15 course community is for the golf course to be
16 able to be used by, you know, the members and the
17 residents who are members of the golf club, and
18 who can enjoy the course.
19 We want it to be a challenging
20 course, but we also want it to be the type of
21 course that's family- oriented, where kids can
22 learn how to play, and people can use and grow
23 with the game as it goes forward.
24 We think it's going to be
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
111
1 something that's going to be really, really
2 useful for the community, and we think that both
3 the residents both that live in Westbury and
4 around are going to be very excited to have it.
5 I think the other thing they
6 are going to be excited to have is the banquet
7 facility that will be open to members of the
8 development and to members of the club to have
I
9 functions there, weddings, Christmas parties, and
10 anything else that they want to have there, and
11 then there will be a restaurant that will be
12 available for people to use that will be in here
13 and overlooking the golf course.
14 Another exciting feature of the
15 overall development --
16 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Excuse me,
17 excuse me.
18 MR. HUGHES: Okay.
19 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: We got the idea.
20 In the essence of time, I don't need all the
21 details. Okay, you are going to have a golf
22 course.
23 Specifically, this public
24 hearing is for the changes you are making to your
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
112
1 South Village.
2 I appreciate the fact how this
3 is all tying together, I think that's very
4 important for us to understand, but I think we
5 have a feel for that.
6 We're not here tonight to
7 approve your golf course concept, we are here
8 tonight for public hearing on the South Village
9 portion.
10 MR. HUGHES: Okay. I appreciate
11 that. I thought it would be important for you to
12 see these things in their context --
13 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: It is.
14 MR. HUGHES: -- and get an overall
15 sense of what we are bringing to Yorkville, it's
16 not just an isolated --
17 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: I think that was
18 important and I'm glad you did it, but now we've
19 got that. Now let's move on to the specific
20 changes to you are asking for for South Village
21 and then to what, East Village is the next one?
22 MR. HUGHES: Yes, East Village is
23 our next one.
24 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay.
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030

1 MR. HUGHES: I will just generally
2 talk about South Village and ask Chris Lannert to
3 come up and talk about the specifics.
4 South Village was Tammy and
5 Michael's piece. It was annexed in August,
6 approved for 475 units by the board.
7 We have a single- family
8 neighborhood here on the east side of the creek.
9 On the west side we have what we are calling an
10 active adult component, which are single- family
11 active adult homes. On the bottom south portion
12 here there is a courtyard product; you are
13 familiar with the rear - loaded garage courtyard
14 product. And to the west is the original
15 garage -in- the -front townhomes.
16 We've got a park and, as I
17 mentioned before, the overall clubhouse sense,
18 we've got a two and a half acre site which will
19 have that local clubhouse will which service just
20 the residents that are located here in our South
21 Village.
22 I think the main point that I
23 want to make is that we are approved for 475
24 units, the plan that we are submitting tonight
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
114
1 for approval is 447 units, so although we have,
2 you know, obviously the legal right to have
3 additional units, we think that this number of
4 units works within the context of what we are
5 trying to achieve, and I think it benefits both
6 the village and our development.
7 For specifics and any other
8 details, I'll let Chris talk about -- Chris
I
9 Lannert of the Lannert Group talk about the
10 specifics of the design and what they tried to
11 achieve and incorporating what rights we have in
12 our annexation agreement.
13 WHEREUPON:
14 CHRIS LANNERT,
15 having been first duly sworn, testified before
16 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows:
17 MR. LANNERT: Since the evening is
18 getting long, I will cut right to the chase.
19 We've obviously got site
20 analysis we have looked at before, you are
21 familiar with the various features. You have
22 seen it a couple of times in the past.
23 This is the concept plan that
24 was approved as part of the annexation which set
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
115
1 the parameters as Pat Hughes just spoke of, and I
2 would just highlight some of the particular
3 features on this particular plan because some of
4 them did change.
5 This plan shows a circulation
6 road coming across the creek and exiting back
7 out. We have since modified that concept through
8 our various staff meetings and consultation with
i
9 input.
10 The other thing is we are
11 looking at the single- family conventional family
12 area here and our active adult component on the
13 other side, and obviously as we look back and
14 forth at the school district relationships, we
15 changed them.
16 The placement of our stormwater
17 has basically been the same, and the types of the
18 townhome units and the courthome units, which
19 were part of the concept plan we spoke of
20 earlier, are still consistent with this plan
21 submittal as well.
22 MR. SCHILLINGER: Can I ask you one
23 quick question first? I've heard it referred to
24 as active adult areas. Are you talking about age
I
i
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 --0030
116
1 targeted or age restricted?
2 MR. LANNERT: It's probably just
3 going to be age targeted.
4 MR. SCHILLINGER: Thank you.
5 MR. LANNERT: And this is the plan
6 that has been developed and it does reflect the
7 first modification I spoke of.
8 Rather than having this roadway
9 cut across the creek in this location, we enter
10 in off of Corneils Road at this location. It
11 provides ample setback as the entry to our first
12 townhome area, as well as for the active adult
13 area.
. I
14 As the road swings down through
15 the project, it accesses the courthome area and
16 then it comes back through the active adult area,
17 exits out back onto the roadway without crossing
18 the creek corridor.
19 Much like we have protected the
20 creek corridor in the East Village through the
21 golf course area, we have a continuous green belt
22 through this area.
23 On the other side of that
24 roadway we have our single- family homes, we have
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
117
1 a four -acre park preserve, which preserves the
2 trees, we have a low lying area, which is
3 identified as existing wetland as well as the
4 proposed stormwater necessary to meet the
5 requirements.
6 The white line that's coming
7 around this area shows the connections of the
8 trail system that we're linking both in terms of
9 South Village and we'll have fingers up into the
10 larger community as a whole.
11 The uses again will be the
12 townhomes in this area, courthomes in this area,
13 active adults in this area.
14 The clubhouse is located at
I
15 this location with the paths connecting to it,
16 that's one of the smaller neighborhood
17 clubhouses, and then the single- family on the
18 other side.
19 As Pat pointed out, the numbers
20 of units that we have proposed are 252
21 single- family units. Those are the ones
22 comprised of both the age targeted, as well as
23 the additional single- family.
24 We have 274 townhomes, we have
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 --0030
118
1 295 courtyard homes. No, we don't. Wrong sheet.
2 We have 105 active adult
3 single- family lots, we've got 76 single- family
4 lots, 146 townhouse areas, townhouse -- or 146
5 courthome units, 121 townhouse units, for the
6 total of 448, and that's the number Pat did speak
7 of, as opposed to 475, which was approved by the
8 annexation agreement.
i
9 In addition to that, we have
10 increased the open space from 28 percent
11 referenced in the original plan to 38 percent
12 shown on this plan, and that's a byproduct of
13 working out the stormwater protection in those
14 corridors.
15 So that's a general overview of
16 the South Village as we are proposing tonight.
17 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. Questions
18 from the public? Statements from the public?
19 Yes, ma'am.
20 WHEREUPON:
21 CHI MASON,
22 having been first duly sworn, testified before
23 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows:
24 MS. MASON: Chi Mason. I have
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
119
1 question. It's not addressed to the developers,
2 but I would like the city to take into account.
3 While hearing all those
4 proposals and all the houses, when are we going
5 to consider community facilities or hospital or
6 when are we going to consider adding fire
7 stations, adding some of the police departments,
8 adding more people into the city?
9 The other thing is how about
10 some of the creative arts? When are we going to
11 have an auditorium for the city? When are we '
12 going to have a theater for the city?
13 So I think although we need to
14 take into account by adding all those family
15 houses, it's not going to help the city as a
16 whole. Thank you.
17 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. Thank
18 you. Any other comments?
19 MS. McARTHUR: Mr. Chairman?
20 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Yes, ma'am.
21 WHEREUPON:
22 JOAN McARTHUR,
23 having been first duly sworn, testified before
24 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows:
i
I
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
120
I
1 MS. McARTHUR: I'm Joan MacArthur.
2 My parents and I own the property -- it would be
3 a little kitty- corner here to the north of
4 Corneils.
5 I don't know if this is the
6 point I should ask for this, but on the
7 Comprehensive Plan that they have with the golf
8 course and with the property that they're
9 developing to the east of me, the property we
10 have is a horse farm, it has been for the last
11 twenty years.
12 Last fall I called Ocean
13 Atlantic and asked if they were going to put up a
14 berm or a fence around the east part or north
i
15 part of the property.
16 At this point the gentleman I
17 talked to laughed at me and said, "I will own
18 your property. What are you worried about ?" I
19 said, "Sir, this is our home." He said, "I'm
20 going to own it." I said, "Sir, you will never
21 own it."
22 But what I'm addressing now is
23 since you've got in your contracts I believe that
24 it's a pre- existing farm and that they are coming
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 --0030
121
1 to us, I have thoroughbred race horses which I'll
2 have stud colts out there, I've got a racetrack
3 that is paralleling the creek, and that brings up
4 another problem.
5 What I'd like to see if I could
6 ask the city to get a fence around the east side
7 and north side where there is a park and keep
8 children from coming over and getting hurt by the
9 horses. I have been there twenty years.
10 And I asked that of Ocean
I
11 Atlantic and they just laughed at me and said you
12 want a fence, put it up yourself.
13 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Just for
14 clarification for myself, where is your property
15 in relationship to --
16 MR. KRAMER: Mr. Lindholm -- or
17 Lindblom, I'm sorry, if I can respond to that.
18 She is actually talking about
19 the East Village, the next petition, not this
20 one, but to answer her question, we had one of
21 the Yorkville alderman ask this while we were
22 waiting tonight on the previous proposal whether
23 they would be willing to put the farm -type fence
24 we have put in other cases in the city as a
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 --0030
122
1 buffer at the back of the farm, and I am somewhat
2 surprised because we indicated we would when we
3 were asked by the alderman.
4 We have done that to block farm
5 animals, put that in where we have put the high
6 tensile fence, which isn't terribly unattractive,
7 difficult for kids to get through, and keeps the
8 livestock in. That can probably shortcircuit
9 that.
10 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay.
11 MS. MASON: Mr. Chairman?
12 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Yes.
13 MS. MASON: On the creek portion
14 that I saw in this comprehensive, I've got a race
15 track that's right on there, and if there is a
16 golf course coming over there, A, how am I going
17 to keep golf balls off my race track? If I've
18 got a horse worth a hundred thousand that breaks
19 a leg on that, I'm going to be a little upset.
20 How do I keep kids from coming
21 across that creek? Because if I'm running a full
22 head of steam, I can't get out of the way, I hit
23 them, I don't want to be liable for killing a
24 kid. So these are issues that I have.
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
123
1 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Is there any
2 response to that from anybody or --
3 MR. LANNERT: I think that -- There
4 is a couple of different responses. The creek is
5 a buffer, quote, to her property as well as to
6 the golf course.
7 The creek, that corridor, is
8 heavily wooded. There is a stand of evergreens
9 along the north side of the property, as well as
10 along the east side of the property, which I will
11 point out specifically when we look at the East
12 Village, and then with the addition of those
13 fences, the golf holes are not going to run as
14 envisioned, paralleling the roadway, they are
15 going to kind of come in at an angle, come in
16 this way and go back out that way, come back
17 there, come back through here.
18 So I think there is enough of a
19 buffer and other stormwater requirements that we
20 are going to be doing in this area that she will
21 be well buffered in terms of setback, in terms of
22 existing vegetation, the fences that Mr. Kramer
23 just spoke about, and /or stormwater.
24 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. Any other
i
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
124
1 comments on this, on the south portion?
2 (No Response)
3 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Hearing none, I
4 am going to close that part of the public
5 hearing.
6 MR. JONES: So moved.
7 MR. CROUCH: Second.
8 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: We don't need a
9 vote. And just for the record, let me read item
10 PC 2006 -09 Ocean Atlantic Chicago, LLC,
11 petitioners, has filed an application with the
12 United City of Yorkville, Kendall County,
13 Illinois, requesting an amendment to an
I
14 Annexation and Planned Unit Development Agreement
15 in regard to modifying the approved Preliminary
16 Planned Unit Development Plan.
17 The real property consists of
18 approximately 300.66 acres on the west side of
19 Route 47, bounded by Galena Road on the north and
20 Corneils Road on the south, in the United City of
21 Yorkville, Kendall County, Illinois.
22 MR. KRAMER: Dan Kramer representing
23 the petitioner, and I haven't moved since the
24 last hearing, so it's the same address.
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
125
1 Tom this one again, given the
g g
2 hour, the good news we can tell you -- and I
3 always like to point this out when Mr. Crouch is
4 a representative of the school board -- on the
5 East Village they are increasing -- the reason we
6 are here tonight, it's annexed, it's zoned, it's
7 platted, but they are asking to amend that plat.
8 They are increasing the
I
9 commercial acreage from 2227 to 3381, so we think
10 there is a tremendous benefit to the city in
11 terms of revenue benefits to the school district
12 and all the taxing bodies, and, again, the young
13 lady that testified in the last hearing, the very
14 first one that asked about some of the business
15 facilities you need, some of the recreational
16 facilities you need, we would say that this core
17 business area that Chris is going to explain will
18 expand those types of facilities that are
19 available for health care, recreation and
20 business in the city.
21 There is a resulting reduction
22 in the number of residential units of 37 units in
I
23 the single- family and 32 units in the attached
24 project. So, again, the increase in commercial
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
126
1 lowers the approved and platted residential.
2 With that, Chris Lannert would
3 explain the plan itself.
4 MR. Lannert: Again, borrowing from
5 a picture is worth a thousand words, I will just
6 run you through the pictures to keep you familiar
7 in terms of what's happened.
8 This is the approved
9 preliminary plan that we are constructing
10 currently.
11 All of this portion to the
12 south is going along as -is; we have not made any
13 changes to that particular area.
14 The area along the north up
15 here where the Undesser farm is, that's still
16 staying consistent. That has not been modified.
17 The existing school site, the existing park site
18 has not changed, and other than that, everything
19 else has.
20 So this was the approved plan.
21 This is the concept that you reviewed last year
22 and reapproved this in terms of the concept.
23 What has -- And this shows what we are trying to
24 change within the middle.
�
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 --0030
127
1 Again, these are all staying
2 the same, the school park stays the same, but the
3 access point to Route 47, with the divided
4 boulevard Mr. Hughes spoke of earlier, will be
5 coming through the whole project to give us the
I
6 identity.
7 We go from Route 47 to our
8 commercial clubhouse and core, and then these
9 are -- as Dan just spoke of, we have increased
10 that commercial significantly from what was done
I
11 before.
12 The plan, which is specifically
13 before you tonight, would change all of those
14 features and incorporate it into this area.
15 What we do is we have the same
16 courtyard home area that we had on the previous
17 plan, we have the same townhouses that we had in
18 the previous plan, we have two different areas of
19 single- family that we had in the previous plan.
20 There has been an erosion, as
21 Dan just pointed out in terms of the total number
22 of units, there has been conversely increased the
23 number in terms of stormwater.
24 This is the finger where the
i
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 =-0030
128
1 golf course will slip into this plan, so all of
2 these units will be fronted on water, as well as
3 on our view corridor from Route 47 into and to
4 our golf course.
I
5 In terms of the larger detail,
6 if you want to look at this, the guts of what's
7 changed, it's just this portion right here.
8 Townhouses, courthomes, two different types of
9 single- family.
10 Everything else has stayed the
11 same, except the commercial is now larger because
12 we have the advantage we did not have when this
13 was first annexed of a direct access point. This
14 should really impact our commercial viability.
15 That in a nutshell is what we are asking for this
16 evening.
17 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay.
18 MR. KRAMER: I think maybe one other
19 important feature, as we worked with staff and
20 parks department, we have a way to tie into the
21 regional trail all the way to up Pulte
22 development, so it fits in and provides a missing
23 link all the way back to the city property.
24 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. Thank
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
129
1 you. Questions?
2 MR. SCHILLINGER: Did we have final
3 approval?
4 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Oh, no not
5 final.
6 MR. SCHILLINGER: We never had
7 final, so --
8 MR. KRAMER: Of a previous plan.
9 MR. SCHILLINGER: Okay. But it's
10 just been through the preliminary stages, not
11 final, so there is already -- we have to amend --
12 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: What they're
13 asking for on these, as I understand it, is a
14 change to the annexation agreement and
15 preliminary approval.
16 MR. KRAMER: And a new preliminary
17 plat because we are changing it, lowering the
18 density.
19 MR. SCHOPPE: Right, and there was a
20 portion of these that did have a final plat on it
21 that you reviewed.
22 MR. SCHILLINGER: It did have a
23 final?
24 MR. SCHOPPE: Is that neighborhood
i
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
130
1 six?
2 MR. KRAMER: Pod six.
3 MR. SCHOPPE: Other than that, there
4 has been no single - family plan brought forward.
5 MR. CROUCH: And then remember they
6 came back to us with a golf course, two holes.
7 MR. SCHILLINGER: Right.
8 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Let's just see
9 if there is any more comments, then we will close
10 this, and obviously we are going to come back to
11 it.
12 Any further comments from the
13 public now? Yes, ma'am.
14 MS. MASON: Again, my request is
15 really consider some of the usage of the land.
16 So far we heard one high school. How about an
17 elementary school? How about a middle school?
18 And how about the library? Those facilities.
19 MR. KRAMER: Again, that one I can
20 answer very briefly. We do have an elementary
21 school site that was agreed with Dr. Engler and
22 the school board. We also have a public park
23 besides the various clubhouses.
24 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. Any other
Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030
131
1 comments?
2 (No response)
3 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Hearing none,
4 then I would entertain a motion to close the
5 public hearing.
6 MR. JONES: So moved.

9 and seconded to close the public hearing.
