PC 2006 -34 Cannonball LLC, Harlem Irving Companies and Cooper Home Furnishings, petitioners, have filed an application with the city to rezone from A -1 Agricultural District to PUD zoning to allow uses permitted in the B -3 Service Business District, R -2 One Family Residence District, and R -3 General Residence District. The real property consists of approximately 193 acres located on the northwest corner of U.S. 34 and Cannonball Trail. See attached. Page 2 of 9 Lucietto made a motion to close the public hearing at 8:45 p.m. Jones seconded the motion. The motion was unanimously approved by voice vote. Lindblom suggested the Plan Commission talk about the concerns that were brought up at the public hearing. First he addressed the issue of water runoff. Bill Dunn, consulting engineer with EEI, said he's done some preliminary reviews and has asked for information from the petitioner. The developer on the south side of Route 34 plans to carry water the excess water to the Fox River. Pete Huinker, Smith Engineering, said concerns raised the public hearing regarded flooding that occurred after previous storms. There are some pocketed areas in the existing topography of the land. Adding those existing areas of depression with the detention requirements, the volume is double what the standard requirements would be. Lindblom had questions about preliminary plans submitted. There's a significant difference in the single - family and multi - family housing areas of the plans dated 4/18/06 and the plans dated 5/18/06. He said he has some concerns with the way the multi - family housing is laid out. Jim Synder, project manager with Harlem Irving Companies, said the plan in the packet is the updated site plan created after talking with city staff. Community Development Director Travis Miller said the concept PUD plan dated May 26 is what the commission is asked to vote on. Looking at that plan, Lindblom said he has a problem with access to all of the multi- family housing. Snyder said a second entrance could be added to the right of the detention pond. He said it should be noted that the cul -de -sac would exit out to Beecher Road. Brian Schillinger wanted to know if the transition to the townhome issue has been resolved. Filler said it has been. Lindblom said another issue to consider is a higher berm along Cannonball Trail. Jones said Cannonball Trail has been here for a long time, but overall this plan is a good plan. He'd like to see the residents and the developer work out a solution. Also, Jones said that the residents along Cannonball don't want to see it widened. Yet, if the road were to be widened, it would alleviate some of the traffic. Going over the staff report, Miller said the city's PUD ordinance was revised in May. Now, the concept PUD is treated like a zoning map amendment. The densities identified on the concept plan would be locked in. The developer could shift densities within the plan, but not the overall density. Page 3 of 9 i Miller then went over the comments in his report. The concept PUD plan includes a narrative description of the PUD, he said. Staff reviewed it and felt it was appropriate. The developer also submitted architectural drawings for all buildings including typical elevations and building materials, Miller said. The preliminary PUD plan, which includes preliminary engineering for wetlands and traffic were not part of the packet, he said. The preliminary plat is in the packet. He said the property currently is zoning A -1. Based on the mix of land uses proposed for the property, the PUD zoning classification would be appropriate. Meanwhile, Miller said the proposed uses in the plan substantially comply with the recommendations of the Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan Use for the area recommends an approximately'/ mile wide commercial corridor along Route 34 and the remaining portion to the north Suburban Neighborhood with a small park/open space. The Comprehensive Plan also recommends Beecher Road to cross the western portion of this property. That is depicted in the plans submitted. The PUD Concept Plan is a little bit confusing on density, Miller said. The total proposed number of residential units is 192 (28 single - family detached and 164 townhomes). Factoring in the 7.67 -acre park dedication and the 8.36 -acre dedication for the police station, the gross density is at 3.87 units per acre. The density exceeds the Comprehensive Plan recommendation for a suburban density by -1.62 units per acre. Miller said the staff recommendation is to permit a transitional use for the proposed residential area with a maximum density of 3.5 units per acre. Another issue is the Lot 51 is limited to one point of ingress and egress. Staff recommends the plan incorporate additional means. The townhomes in Lot 52 are depicted at 50 feet from front to front. That's a little close, Miller said. Staff recommends additional community park space at %2 space per unit to allow for additional parking. He also referred to the EEI engineering report. He said it's rather technical. However, he said there's a high comfort level from the staff that all of the issues would be resolved. Lindblom said he has a couple of issues. He's concerned about safety. He's not sure if widening Cannonball Trail would be better or worse regarding traffic and safety. Either way, he said sidewalks on the development side of the roadway should be included. Lindblom also questions the site for the police stations. The police station should have more direct access to a major road. The land would be better used for a park, he said. Page 4of9 Jones said the petitioner shouldn't be held accountable for the location of the police department. The city approached the petitioner on that issue, he said. Actually, he said the presence of a police station might serve as a traffic- calming device on the road. People usually slow down when the see a police car. Lindblom said there are differing opinions on that issue. Lindblom then said he appreciates the developer's effort to line up one entrance with Hickory Lane. He wondered what else could be done to minimize traffic on Cannonball Trail. He's not sure if some of the suggestions made will actually accomplish that. He added he's not sure what the solution is. Adams said Beecher Road seems to be the solution. Filler said he agrees. He's counting on more east -west traffic than north -south traffic. Lucietto said she lives in the area being discussed and she knows what the residents who spoke at the public hearing are talking about when they expressed their concerns about traffic on Cannonball Trail. If Beecher Road were to be improved first, people would be trained to use that road. Quite frankly, she said, Cannonball Trail is a cut - through for people who live in other areas. Beecher Road improvements should be investigated and it sounds as if it is something that the retailers would like to see as well, she said. The developer added an even amount of berming at the residents' request from the last meeting. She said that was great. Next, she said the developer should look at tying into the bike path to create a safer environment. As far as lighting goes, there are ways to handle that so it wouldn't be too bothersome to residents, Lucietto said. Lindblom asked if it would be possible to have Beecher installed and operational prior to the planned shopping center opening. Filler said the portion of Beecher on the developer's property would be improved. The developer also would work with city staff to route construction traffic and delivery traffic. Jones said the biggest issue for him is that there are too many townhomes proposed and they're too close together. Lucietto said she's also concerned there's not enough parking for the area. Lindblom said he doesn't understand why the developer is trying to exceed the density allowed under the Comprehensive Plan. Page 5 of 9 Jones said the developer exceeds the density for what is suggested under the comprehensive plan. However, it would meet the density under the requested zoning. The Plan Commission then discussed taking a vote on the concept plan and the zoning. Lindlbom asked if the commission was comfortable voting knowing there are a number of concerns to be addressed. Schillinger said the developer doesn't take any pressure off Cannonball with this plan. He said there needs to be another major entrance /exit off Beecher. Lindblom said the developer doesn't own the property to extend Beecher. The commission, however, is suggesting that the Harlem Irving do their portion of the roadway and put in an exit/entrance. Lucietto said the concept of the development is okay, but she doesn't like the preliminary plan. She needs to see more. Jones said it seems like the developer is asking for everything right now. Lucietto said the Plan Commission doesn't have the level of comfort that it will get what it's asking for. Schillinger asked if it would be okay to vote on the concept, but not on the preliminary. Filler said it's critical the project is approved in time for fall groundbreaking. Suggesting that there's no access to Cannonball Trail would make the center not viable, he said. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to get traffic to the stores. Schillinger said that if Beecher isn't done, then the developer needs Cannonball Trail. Filler said they've put tremendous thought into the plan. He said - Harlem Irving is listening to residents on Cannonball Trail and trying to meet the concerns of residents. Also, he said they would continue to work on its portion of Beecher Road. He said they're actually counting on Beecher. Also, he said Route 34 would continue to expand. Schillinger asked Mayor Art Prochaska when the Beecher Road extension would go through. Prochaska said there is no definite timeline. It can only be extended as developments come in. As a worst -case scenario, the city could do it if it were to get enough revenue. Typically, the city doesn't do that because it would cost the taxpayers a lot of money. Tom asked Filler what would happen to the development's timeframe if a revised proposal were to come back to the Plan Commission in two weeks. Filler asked if the commissioners could approve the concept plan with recommendations for the next step. Lindblom said the commission would give the developer a list of concerns and would ask that the developer show how those concerns have been addressed in the preliminary plan. Page 6 of 9 Filler said if the project doesn't stay on track, they could lose critical retailers. He needs to deliver certain stores and he says he wants to do it right. Because of commitments, he's in a box, he said. He asked if the Plan Commission could approve the retail portion and the retail density and they come back for the residential portion. Lindblom said if the preliminary plan is approved and the developer comes back with the final plan and it's substantially the same as the preliminary, then the city is stuck. He said the Plan Commission would give the developer a list of what the concerns are and those can be incorporated into the preliminary plan. Then the Plan Commission would consider it in two weeks. Lindblom added the Plan Commissioners don't have a problem approving the concept PUD or the rezoning. The preliminary plan could then come back in two weeks. Lucietto made a motion to accept the concept PUD for PC 2006 -34. Jones seconded the motion. The motion was unanimously approved in a roll call vote. Kraupner, Clarence Holdiman, Lucietto, Adams, Schillinger, Jones and Lindblom voted yes. Lucietto made a motion to accept consideration of rezoning for PC 2006 -34 on the concept PUD that was previously passed. Jones seconded the motion. The motion was approved in a 6 -1 roll call vote. Holdiman, Lucietto, Adams, Schillinger, Jones and Lindblom voted yes. Kraupner voted no. Adams made a motion to table the preliminary plan for PC 2006 -34. Lucietto seconded the motion. The motion was unanimously approved by roll call vote. Lucietto, Adams, Schillinger, Jones, Kraupner, Holdiman and Lindblom voted yes: After the vote, Lindblom said that the next meeting isn't a public hearing. However, residents are welcome to come and listen and said the Plan Commission always accepts comments from residents. Prochaska said that he would get a letter from Police Chief Harold Martin on reasons for wanting the proposed location for the police station. The chief liked the location. He said it's convenient to the county sheriffs department and the two departments could share some of their facilities. Some of the same concerns expressed at the public hearing were present when the police station was moved to its current location, Prochaska said. Kraupner then made a motion to return to public hearing. Lucietto seconded the motion. The motion was unanimously approved by voice vote. 2. PC 2005 -44 Donald Schramm and Standard Bank & Trust, petitioners, have filed an application with the city requesting annexation and rezoning from Kendall County A -1 to Yorkville PUD zoning to allow uses permitted in the commercial, office and Page 7 of 9 residential districts. The property consists of approximately 182.25 acres at 9338 Bypass 30. See attached. Lucietto made a motion to close the public hearing. Schillinger seconded the motion. The motion was unanimously approved by voice vote. Jones asked if approval of this plan would force a boundary showdown with the Village of Montgomery. Prochaska said this property has no relationship with the property to the north. Meanwhile, City Attorney John Wyeth said that the Plan Commission should consider the request by the petitioner without any regard to a neighboring community. Lucietto made a motion to recommend annexation approval for PC 2005 -44. Jones seconded the motion. The motion was unanimously approved by roll call vote. Adams, Schillinger, Jones, Kraupner, Holdiman, Lucietto and Lindblom voted yes. Schillinger asked if there's anything the Plan Commission could do about the tonwhomes. Lucietto said that the ordinance permits 12 units. She wanted to know how the commission feels about that. Is it still too many? Lindblom suggested recommending rezoning approval contingent on reducing the density. Dunn said that Travis Miller discussed the use of the Raymond Regional Detention basin. Use of that basin is saving the city 22 acres of space and they're getting credit for that area. He asked the commission to consider that in their thought processes. Schillinger said it was sold to the city as a way to get more commercial ground, not an area for townhomes. Mayor Prochaska said he agrees with that. However, the landowner is working with the city to get a commercial area and the commercial access that the city needs. Schillinger said that puts the commission back to higher density. Mayor Prochaska said the commission should consider that this proposal is a PUD, so it isn't precedent setting. It's a unique situation. Lindblom said it seems to him that the markets dictate the number of townhomes that are built. As long as the townhomes are quality, it's important to approve the plan, he said. Mayor Prochaska suggested the Plan Commission request the petitioner meet higher building standards. Lucietto made a motion to recommend rezoning as requested and the concept PUD for PC 2005 -44 subject to staff concerns and current city standards. Jones seconded the Page 8 of 9 motion. The motion was unanimously approved in a roll call vote. Schillinger, Jones, Kraupner, Holdiman, Lucietto, Adams and Lindblom voted yes. NEW BUSINESS 1. PC 2005 -52 Kleinwachter Preliminary Plan Kelly Kramer, attorney for the petitioner, said the property consists of 9.81 acres. The preliminary plan for a subdivision is before the Plan Commission. The petitioners are looking to develop the property with a B -3 business service district with a flex plan for R- 2 zoning on the back half of the property if needed. They plan on building a daycare facility and possibly a preschool facility on Lot 4. Beyond that, they don't have any other end users. The annexation and zoning was approved by the City Council. Miller said there are some technical items that need to be cleaned up, but the staff s recommendation is to approve the request subject to staff comments. Lucietto made a motion to recommend approval of the preliminary plan for PC 2005 -52 subject to staff concerns. Jones seconded the motion. The motion was unanimously approved by voice vote. Jones, Holdiman, Lucietto, Adams, Schillinger and Lindblom voted yes. Kraupner had to leave the meeting at 10 p.m. and wasn't present for the vote. 2. PC 2006 -51 Brighton Oaks II Concept Plan Patti Bernhard, attorney for the petitioner, said the property is located High Point Road. It is south of the Brighton Oaks development. The petitioner is seeking concept plan approval for a 54- single - family home development on 37.5 acres. Eventually the petitioner would seek to annex and zone R -2. Ted Lundquist with SEC Planning said there are a few constraints with the site. Access is one problem as is visibility on High Point Road. They've placed the access point to maximize visibility. There also is the potential for a future access from the north. The plan is designed with open -ended cul -de -sacs to minimize the number of homes backing the existing development. The developer also is proposing a 70 -foot buffer along High Point Road. Lundquist said the Park Board requested a trail connection, but no park area. The developer also intends to preserve the wetlands on the site and will dedicate 35 percent of the site to open space. The proposed density on the project is 1.44 units per acre, well below the estate density of 1.75 units per acre, Lundquist said. The average lot size would be 15, 000 square feet with a maximum lot size of 20,635 feet and a minimum lot size of 12,000 square feet. Page 9 of 9 Mayor Prochaska said the residents neighboring the proposed development like this plan for street connections rather than connecting into Maple Ridge Lane. Lindblom said the concept looks good. I Lucietto made a motion to adjourn the meeting at 10:25 p.m. Jones seconded the motion. The motion was unanimously approved by voice vote.

FILLER: Richard Filler. I am 17 the managing director of the Harlem Irving 18 Companies. Good evening, Commissioners, 19 Chairman, and residents of Yorkville. 20 You've heard this, and our 21 conceptual plan has pretty much stayed consistent 22 from our last presentation, so obviously there is 23 a lot of people here that would like to get into 24 a discussion with this project, so we'll keep it Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 5 1 very brief and do a very quick run -down. 2 Our agenda this evening, we'll 3 just give you a quick team overview. The project 4 overview, character and landscape program, we'll 5 get more into our traffic study on the 6 conceptual, we didn't really talk about those 7 traffic improvements and where we're going. 8 We have met with Cannonball 9 Trail Civic League and we understand their 10 concerns, and tonight we're going to try to 11 address how we're going to approach their 12 concerns and then get into a discussion. 13 The development team is made up 14 of two very experienced companies: Harlem Irving 15 Company is a 50 -year old company this year, and 16 Mid - America Development. 17 Dave Bossy is here and will 18 speak a little to his company and the years of 19 experience, and we've also enjoyed many 20 partnerships together also. 21 Harlem Irving Company is based 22 with its flagship, the Harlem - Irving Plaza, 23 located in Norridge, Illinois. 24 It started 50 years ago as a Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 6 1 local strip center and today boasts 700,000 2 square feet with 150 specialized retail stores. 3 We pride ourself throughout the 4 greater Chicagoland area of quality projects. 5 This is a project that we actually did with 6 Mid - America in Glenview, which was a large format 7 type of project with Costco and Home Depot. 8 A project that we just recently 9 are getting approvals for -- in fact, our final 10 approval for this Town Center in the Village of 11 Willowbrook is a -- nice blend thing between the 12 project you saw with the large format and then 13 the smaller format is very similar to how we will 14 be approaching our project here in Yorkville. 15 It's very high architecture, a lot of specialty 16 stores. 17 With that, I'll have Dave just 18 give a little introduction. 19 WHEREUPON: 20 DAVID BOSSY, 21 having been first duly sworn, testified before 22 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows: 23 MR. BOSSY: Just very quick, David 24 Bossy, Mid - America Real Estate Corporation. Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 7 1 We have three Mid - America 2 companies; the first one is a brokerage company 3 where we've represented over 100 national chain 4 stores handling their expansion plans throughout 5 Chicagoland, Mid - America Asset Management 6 Company, very large asset management company, 7 with 20 million square feet of shopping centers 8 we have managed through the area, but really 9 Mid - America Development Partners is my current 10 company, which is doing a myriad of development 11 projects, redeveloping four different projects in 12 Homewood, many public - private partnerships in Oak 13 Lawn, where we re- developed the downtown area of 14 Oak Lawn, we're doing Westin Hotel in Wheeling, 15 Illinois, right now, we are building a Marriott 16 Hotel in Naperville, we are doing a lifestyle 17 center along Route 59 in Naperville, just 18 completed the Target and Home -- Target and 19 Wal -Mart in Plainfield along Route 59, so there 20 is a whole myriad of projects of mixed use along 21 with retail, and I'll leave it at that. 22 MR. FILLER: That is the shortest 23 speech I have ever heard Dave give. The project 24 is located at the northwest corner of Veteran's Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 8 1 Parkway and Cannonball Trail. 2 The site summary, it's roughly 3 200 acres. It's broken down to -- the retail 4 parcel is roughly 133 acres, which includes 23 5 acres of retention. 6 There will be a ten -acre police 7 station, 22 acres of single - family, 23 acres of 8 townhomes, and then a right -of -way that will be 9 given in three acres. 10 The retail portion of the site 11 is basically -- the exciting thing about this 12 center, as we spoke to at the conceptual review, 13 is that we're using a large box format in the 14 background, which at this time we have a signed 15 letter of intent for our negotiations for a final 16 purchase agreement with Target, Home Depot, and 17 this week we just finalized an agreement with 18 Kohl's Department Stores for our third anchor at 19 the center. 20 In addition to that, we have 21 many mid -sized anchors that are working with us, 22 Petsmart, Linens & Things, Michaels, and many 23 more. 24 The site will also have a I i Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 9 1 unique feature, which will be a specialty 2 boulevard, a place where, instead of having a 3 large sea of asphalt in this large format, there 4 will be a very intimate retail experience with 5 high architecture, finer tenants, more boutique 6 type of tenants, a place where Sunday afternoon 7 it will fee like a small downtown with the 8 Starbuck Coffees of the world and the bagel 9 stores and maybe the higher end boutiques. 10 And when you look at the site 11 plan, we can't promise that portion of the site 12 tonight, it could be a year from now, it could be 13 two from here, and when you look at how that will 14 work, that will actually be able to be placed in 15 there at any given time as the momentum for the 16 center builds up and we get those specialty kinds 17 up. 18 The thing I'm very proud to say 19 is that the response we've had from the national 20 retail community has been outstanding, far more 21 rapid than we had ever anticipated. Once again, 22 it's a testimony to the growth of Yorkville. 23 As relates to the residential 24 plan, we have the townhomes component and we also �I Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 10 1 have the single- family component. 2 We are working and have devised 3 a plan that will come back in our next meeting -- 4 in our final where this is all transitional. 5 The single- families will 6 actually abut the single- families, the townhouses 7 will actually drop to the south of the 8 single - family, so we will have a perfect 9 transitional zoning going from the existing 10 single - family to single- family to townhouse 11 development to the detention and then to the 12 commercial. 13 So as it relates -- and then 14 from here, actually residential, police station, 15 commercial, so we feel that the transitional 16 zoning has been achieved. 17 Breaking down the residential 18 density, this gets a little confusing, I'm still 19 a little confused by it also; however, I am 20 taking this based off of a Plan Commission 21 concern or comment, and that comment was that 22 it's too dense. 23 When you really look at it, our 24 total residential allowable before giving the Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 11 1 police station is actually 56 acres, and based on 2 56 acres, with the zoning and the densities 3 allowed in that zoning, would actually be allowed 4 to do 243 units. 5 Keeping that density and 6 deeding the ten acres to the police station 7 actually would bring our density down -- actually 8 would allow us to build -- keeping that density 9 and just shifting it over would still allow us to 10 do 243. Our total plan is 197. 11 So based on the comment that 12 was given, I believe if you go through the 13 calculations, is that we are actually under what 14 we would actually be allowed to develop as it 15 relates to the density in residential. 16 At this point I would have Phil 17 come up and walk you through the character and 18 some of the landscape plans. 19 WHEREUPON: 20 PHIL STUEPFERT, 21 having been first duly sworn, testified before 22 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows: 23 MR. STUEPFERT: Phil Stuepfert, and 24 I will try and keep this brief as well. I just Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 12 1 wanted to give you a brief overview of the 2 character and theme. 3 As you recall, we are trying 4 pull some of the items from Yorkville, the 5 courthouse architecture, downtown Yorkville, and 6 incorporate it into the landscape. 7 Go to the next slide. As you 8 can see here, the courthouse is just a really 9 great vertical feature in Yorkville, and so we 10 want to pull some of that architecture into the 11 monumentation and signage and some of the 12 features in our development. 13 Obviously the new courthouse, 14 which did some of that, pulling that 15 architecture, is directly south of this property, 16 so I think it would be really neat to pull in 17 all -- 18 UNIDENTIFIED AUDIENCE MEMBER: 19 Excuse me, sir. Can you speak up so we can hear? 20 MR. STUEPFERT: Okay. Sure. It 21 would be neat to pull a lot of this architecture 22 into our features and signage to make sure we are 23 pulling in some of the area around Yorkville. 24 You can see here off the Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 13 1 courthouse, that's the kind of buff - colored 2 cornerstone that's on that building, we are going i 3 to try to incorporate that into our signage and 4 monumentation. 5 You see here the tall vertical 6 feature. We have our signs out front on 34; you 7 can see how we put that cornerstone and that 8 throughout the sign and the vertical features, so 9 we think that's kind of neat to tie it into 10 Yorkville. 11 The downtown center, I spent a 12 lot of time on that, a real environmental, also 13 an urban feel type center. 14 It's going to have a lot of 15 special lighting, benches and things like that. 16 It will be a really neat center. 17 One of the things we did was we 18 put a -- go to the next slide actually. You can 19 see how we put a little small stream down through 20 the middle of that area. 21 That is to try to tie to the 22 concept that the Fox River ties through I 23 Yorkville, so we thought that would be kind of 24 neat, to put that down through that area. Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 14 1 Next slide, please. Peripheral 2 appearance and the buffers on this project are 3 going to be very important. Obviously we have 4 some residents here tonight that are concerned 5 about Cannonball, so I am going to focus on that 6 in the next few slides. 7 But the idea is to obviously 8 put a split rail fence, grasses, maybe some 9 prairie flowers, things like that, along the 10 edges, so it fits the character of Yorkville. 11 Rather than incorporating a 12 really hard urban theme along the edge, we want 13 it to be a really soft rural theme. 14 The way it stands along 15 Cannonball, obviously is along here, and we are 16 required to put a 30 -foot buffer next to 17 residential. 18 The applicant has agreed to do 19 50 feet, which was a concern of neighbors, 20 increase the buffer, which we've done. You 21 brought that up as well through the process, so 22 there is now a 50 -foot buffer along that road. 23 This kind of shows the area, 24 and obviously through here is where there is Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 15 1 about I think six or seven, maybe eight residents 2 that are affected by that. 3 Down in this corner is the 4 future office area, I believe it's already 5 annexed and zoned, if I am correct on that, so 6 that we did cover that down through that area as 7 well. 8 So this is the area of concern, 9 of course, right in there, and if you go to the 10 next slide, you'll see how in certain areas where 11 basically it's going to work, they will be 12 building in the middle of the outlots in those 13 locations. Between those buildings is going to 14 be a mass of parking, so what we're going to try 15 to do is put large berms and dense plantings 16 where all that parking occurs, and then in these 17 areas we will open it up just a little bit 18 because we do need some visibility into those 19 buildings as you can imagine. 20 However, we're going to put a 21 split rail fence and some of the ornamental 22 grasses that get up to three, four feet high so 23 it will screen some of the parking spaces; 24 however, you will be able to look through and see Depo Count Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 16 1 some of the building. 2 If you go to the last slide, 3 where the parking occurs, where it turns green we 4 will have a significant berm, get up to at least 5 five -foot high, maybe higher, have a lot of 6 evergreens on there, dense vegetation, a lot of 7 shrubs and things like that. 8 You will see in this section 9 here it's going to screen a lot of view into that 10 site where appropriate to screen the parking, and 11 then we are going to open it up, like I said 12 earlier, where we feel it's necessary. 13 That's it. I am going to be 14 here to answer any questions. I also have John 15 Wessel here, the senior landscape architect, to 16 answer any questions in terms of the landscape. 17 Turn it back to Rick. 18 WHEREUPON: 19 WILLIAM WOODWARD, 20 having been first duly sworn, testified before 21 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows: i 22 MR. WOODWARD: Good evening. My 23 name is William Woodward. I am a senior 24 consultant traffic engineer with KLOA, located at Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 17 1 9575 West Higgins Rosemont, Illinois, 60018. We 2 are charged with conducting the traffic study for 3 this development. 4 We conducted the study in 5 accordance with both city and IDOT standards. I 6 just want to take few moments to review with you 7 the proposed driveways and their functions, first 8 off beginning with the proposed Beecher Road 9 alignment. 10 We are looking at a couple 11 intersections off the side for the retail and the 12 residential components, along with the 13 intersection on 34. 14 Along 34 we are looking at a 15 full access, which is the primary access driveway 16 to the retail development, along with two 17 supplementary or secondary driveways on either 18 side that would be restricted to right -in, 19 right -out only movements. 20 In addition, along Cannonball 21 Trail, we are looking at two access points; one 22 primarily is residential and the other one is a 23 secondary to serve the outlots and the retail 24 southern portion of the development. Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 18 1 In our study we analyzed 2 several conditions, several time periods, if you 3 will. We looked at year 2010, which is when we 4 are assuming the development will be completed, 5 if not a majority of it, y6ar 2016 and also year 6 2026. The 2016 and 2026 are in conformance with 7 IDOT standards. 8 Now, for each one of these time 9 periods not only do we consider the existing 10 traffic in the area and the traffic generated by 11 the development, but we also consider certain 12 developments in the area that are expected to 13 take place, and on top of all that to account for 14 everything else that's going on in the Yorkville 15 area and beyond, we increased the existing 16 traffic volumes that we record at the 17 intersection of 34 and Cannonball Trail by six 18 percent per year, which means that for the year 19 2010 condition we increased the existing volumes 20 by 24 percent, for year 2016 we increased it by 21 60 percent, and for year 2026, we went all the 22 way up to 120 percent. 23 Now, is this realistic? Maybe, 24 maybe not. But that's pretty much the only way Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 19 1 you have of doing things around here. So we want 2 to be very conservative when we approach the 3 study and how we came about -- you know, when we 4 did our analysis and the recommendations. 5 Speaking of which, I'll get 6 into the recommendations and the results of the 7 study. 8 Starting with Beecher Road, as 9 was agreed, Beecher Road will be constructed as a 10 five -lane cross - section providing two through 11 lanes in each direction, along with a median that 12 can be carved out to provide left -turn lanes at 13 the appropriate intersections. 14 At the intersection of 34 and 15 Beecher, a traffic signal is warranted and 16 recommended at this intersection. 17 My apologies. Let me back up 18 for a minute before I talk about that specific 19 intersection. 20 As a result of this development 21 and other developments in the area, along with 22 the increase in traffic, 34 is being recommended 23 to be widened to provide two through lanes in 24 each direction, five -lane cross - section if you Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 20 1 will 2 So now going back to that 3 intersection at Beecher and 34, we are 4 recommending that at that intersection that 5 Beecher Road contain a left -turn lane, two 6 through lanes and a right -turn lane, two through 7 lanes and a right -turn lane on the north and 8 south approaches on Beecher, as the north and 9 south approach. 10 And then on 34, we are 11 recommending that a left -turn and a right -turn -- 12 excuse me, left -turn and right -turn lane also be 13 provided on the west and east approaches as well. 14 This is in addition to the two 15 through lanes that are going to be developed on 16 34. 17 Now, at the main access -- the 18 center access, like I say, is on 34, this one 19 right here, again, a traffic signal is warranted 20 and recommended at this intersection because it 21 is the primary intersection to the retail 22 development. 23 We are recommending that a 24 right -- excuse me, a left -turn lane, an Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 21 1 eastbound left -turn lane on 34, be provided, 2 along with a right -turn lane, and that the 3 driveway itself be constructed to allow a minimum 4 of one lane inbound and three lanes outbound, 5 where you would have two dual left turns coming 6 out of the development, along with a single 7 right -turn lane coming out of the development. 8 MR. SCHILLINGER: Why only one in? 9 MR. WOODWARD: Excuse me? 10 MR. SCHILLINGER: Why only one lane 11 in? 12 MR. WOODWARD: That's what the 13 analysis suggests was needed. The two right -in 14 right -out driveways along 34, as I mentioned, 15 these will be restricted to right -in right -out 16 only movements, should provide right -turn lanes 17 on 34, or deceleration lanes, and the right -turn 18 lane -- the driveways themselves should provide 19 one lane inbound and one lane outbound, with the 20 outbound lanes under stop sign control. 21 The intersection of Cannonball 22 Trail, basically at this intersection, in 23 addition to two through lanes on 34, right -turn 24 lanes are recommended on the north approach, so Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 22 1 that would be a southbound right -turn lane to go 2 from south to west, in addition to a northbound 3 right -turn lane to go from north to east. 4 The two access driveways on 5 Cannonball Trail, we are recommending that a left 6 turn lane and a right -turn lane at both of these 7 driveways be constructed and that the driveways 8 be -- provide a minimum of one inbound lane and 9 two outbound lanes separated between left and 10 right turn movements, and the outbound lanes 11 should both be -- both these driveways should be 12 under stop sign control. 13 Because of the close proximity 14 of the two driveways to each other in relation to 15 34, we are recommending that the quote, unquote 16 three -lane cross - section, the middle lane that's 17 going to be providing the left -turn lane, 18 basically be extended all the way through this 19 corridor so that you're not having a -- 20 basically, you know, a bottleneck from one 21 intersection to the next. 22 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. Thank 23 you. 24 MR. WOODWARD: Thank you. Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 23 1 MR. FILLER: As I suggested at the 2 beginning of the meeting, we have received 3 correspondence from Cannonball Trail Civic League 4 through via email and also we were cc'd on a 5 letter that was written I think to this 6 Commission. 7 Based on those concerns as we 8 understand them today, I'd like to walk through 9 what we understand their concerns being and how 10 we are going about to alleviate their concerns. 11 There is a concern of berming 12 along Cannonball Trail. I believe the ordinance 13 states that we are required to have a 30 or 14 35 -foot setback from the right -of -way. 15 We are actually offering a 16 50 -foot setback that would match the residential 17 project to the north, would be utilizing similar 18 berms, and undulating those berms to make sure 19 that we are hiding the parking, and I 20 think that's -- We don't want this to be -- I 21 mean, the experience of this center is from the 22 inside out, not from the outside in. 23 If you look how we've even put 24 the interior roads, we want people to get off of Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 24 1 the roadways and to get inside, and we 2 actually -- and you don't see this very often, 3 but we actually have like a frontage road inside. 4 There is a lot of outlot uses 5 and there is, you know, the specialty retail and 6 the large format Target. 7 We have created internal 8 circulation. We don't want people driving around 9 the edge of this. 10 And if you look at a lot of 11 master plans like this, a lot of those outlots 12 would have cuts right onto a Cannonball Trail, 13 right onto a 34, right -in right -out or whatever 14 to create more of a smaller circulation within 15 that outlot user. 16 Our idea is to get them in, 17 keep them in, and let them circulate within the 18 center itself. 19 Lighting is a large concern and 20 we understand lighting would be a concern being 21 that these residents are fronting onto 22 Cannonball. 23 What we are committed to do is 24 all of our outlot users would utilize more of an I Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 25 1 ambient lighting, so you're not going to have 2 neon signs, brightly lit signs. More of like a 3 restaurant you have here in town, Blackstone. 4 If you look at how that's lit, 5 it's lit with gooseneck type of fixtures, and 6 it's just kind of putting a nice glow onto the 7 building. It's not an obnoxious light. It's 8 just a nice glow. 9 And once again, signage, you 10 know, their signage there is great. It's an 11 ambient lighting. They basically have the 12 channels that are solid and it's a halo globe 13 behind them. 14 So we would actually restrict 15 along Cannonball Trail all of our users to 16 utilize that type of a lighting program. 17 In addition to that there would 18 be the concern of those parking lot lights within 19 the parking lot. 20 Parking lot lighting has become 21 very sophisticated in today's world and it's very 22 controllable. We can take, you know, a parking 23 lot, take it from ten foot candles to zero at 24 that property line. Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 26 1 One thing that you have to be 2 concerned with is those people on Cannonball when 3 they look out do not see those lights. 4 We only use recessed -- If you 5 look at two different kinds of cans, can 6 lighting, there is a type of can lighting that 7 actually kind of bubbles out below that can, and 8 it's very difficult to hide. 9 All of our lighting will be 10 recessed within that can, and because they do sit 11 up high, there still is a chance that you would 12 be able to see into that can, and at those places 13 we put cut -outs, we put baffles, so that type of 14 light would be eliminated. 15 As relates to traffic, we just 16 went over that. We have many experts that will 17 work with us to make sure that the appropriate 18 movements are made and the appropriate 19 improvements are put together to make this a safe 20 environment for the community and for our 21 shoppers and residents at home. 22 The neighbors would not like us 23 to have any entrance onto -- off of Cannonball. 24 We feel that that's fairly impractical. Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 27 1 What we did do, though, is when 2 we really studied and started paying a lot of 3 attention to those homes across the street, we 4 noticed that we had -- the drive to the north 5 needs to be there because it's going to feed that 6 residential, it's going to feed the police 7 station. So that one has to stay. That's a 8 given. 9 The other -- the other entrance 10 on Cannonball, where we had proposed -- where we 11 had proposed the -- on the current site plan that 12 shows, it shows that the only shopping center 13 drive is actually placed right here, and with 14 meeting with the neighbors, we realized that what 15 we were doing, there are two houses that are 16 fairly close together there, and we are actually 17 putting those headlights basically into two 18 homes. 19 We have redesigned it, and in 20 the next package that you will see from us is a 21 full redesign. We've actually brought -- taken 22 that -- so once again created internal 23 circulation and brought that road to match up 24 with the road -- the only existing true drive -in Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 28 1 road on the other side of the street, so we have 2 matched those up so not to be offensive to 3 anybody on that side of the street. 4 There are concerns with the 5 police station which I can't address. 6 And then there is certain 7 concerns of how we sign -- sign the project to 8 keep people from not using Cannonball as a main 9 thoroughfare into the shopping center. 10 We're not suggesting any type 11 of pylon signs on Cannonball. We're not looking 12 at Cannonball being our main address. I mean, 13 this is Route 34. This is one of the most 14 important east /west streets in Kendall County. 15 And at the same time, you know, 16 we are very excited about the north /south 17 connection of Beecher Road. 18 So, I mean, really this is 19 really a project which is being placed at the 20 northeast corner of Beecher and Veteran's, not, 21 as I opened up, at the northwest corner of 22 Cannonball Trail and 34. 23 Cannonball Trail is not 24 designed to carry the traffic of the shopping Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 29 1 center, and we would want to utilize -- you know, 2 in a lot of towns with a center of this size, 3 like a Schaumburg, you will find that in very 4 different -- very different places that will say, 5 you know, Woodfield Mall, and it might be a mile 6 away from the shopping center. 7 What it's doing is actually 8 getting people to take a different route to that 9 mall. 10 I think there is opportunities 11 as this area grows to actually push people onto 12 more of the commercial roadways to get to our 13 shopping center. 14 We went through the traffic, 15 -but I just would point out there is some concern 16 with Cannonball Trail; specifically that we will 17 actually be going into their front yards for this 18 widening of Cannonball Trail. 19 All of the widening will be 20 taking place on our side of the street, creating 21 a safer environment. 22 The concern I heard from the 23 residents is that it's not a safe environment for 24 them now as it relates to getting their cars in Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 30 1 and out of their driveway and dealing with the 2 traffic that's on Cannonball Trail now. 3 What we are doing here is 4 adding a lane, and what they're having trouble is 5 getting that left -turn lane into their driveways, 6 they are having trouble backing up. 7 We are creating a safe lane, 8 safety lane, for them to create those movements 9 and to get out of the traffic. 10 As it relates to sidewalks, 11 there's a concern that we are not showing 12 sidewalks. It's kind of a dual -edged sword. 13 My feeling is is that at the 14 corner of 34 and Cannonball Trail that will make 15 a very convenient opening, a sidewalk opening, 16 that puts people into -- more into the asphalt, 17 puts them more into the parking area and lets 18 them move north. 19 I guess what's happening now is 20 the kids basically walk up the middle of 21 Cannonball Trail up to the residential to the 22 north. Concerned there should be sidewalks. 23 We're not totally opposed to 24 that, but I think what that's going to take is Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 31 1 some of that rural nature that we are trying to 2 create of the berming, the landscaping, and all 3 of a sudden it's going to take out of that, 4 because it's going to, you know, make that berm 5 steeper because we are not going to have as much 6 room to put the sidewalks in. 7 So with that, I'm sure there 8 will be some comments, and we look forward to 9 discussing the project with you in further 10 detail. Thank you. 11 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. Let me 12 call on Martha Price first. Martha sent a letter 13 to Plan Commission members. It was in our 14 packet. 15 Martha, would you care to 16 comment on this or comment on anything that Rick 17 has talked about? 18 WHEREUPON: 19 MARTHA PRICE, 20 having been first duly sworn, testified before 21 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows: 22 MS. PRICE: We do have an attorney 23 to represent us tonight, but I'll first give you 24 petitions that two of our neighbors gathered from Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 32 1 the area. I believe there is about 103 names on 2 these petitions. 3 The petition reads that, "We, 4 the undersigned, feel that our well established 5 residential neighborhood along Cannonball Trail 6 and Route 34 should be able to maintain its value 7 and quality of life and that every effort should 8 be made by the City of Yorkville to lessen the 9 impact of unexpected commercial development on 10 property according to the Comprehensive Plan that 11 was designed for residential development. 12 Specifically this means not 13 widening Cannonball Trail all the way to 47, no 14 entrances to the commercial development on 15 Cannonball Trail, using transitional zoning on 16 the east side of the proposed development to 17 buffer the high density commercial use from the 18 low density and estate housing, and relocating 19 the proposed police department to a spot more 20 advantageous to all the people of Yorkville." 21 This is the way the petition reads. 22 The last two pages of the 23 petition are designated -- one was signed by 24 residents of Kylyn's Ridge and Crossings, the Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 33 1 other one was residents of Whispering Meadows, 2 and the rest were from the remaining area 3 of primarily Cannonball Trail, so that would be 4 area that we represent. So I'd like to give you 5 these, if that's all right. 6 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Sure. 7 MS. PRICE: Some of our other 8 residents may have some comments to make, but I 9 think that I would like our attorney to speak for 10 us. 11 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. 12 MS. PRICE: Mr. Carl Buck. 13 WHEREUPON: 14 CARL BUCK, 15 having been first duly sworn, testified before 16 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows: 17 MR. BUCK: Good evening, 18 Mr. Chairman. My name is Carl Buck. My address 19 is 618 Main Street, Plainfield, Illinois, and I 20 am here on behalf of the Cannonball Trail Civic 21 League. 22 The first thing I would like to 23 do is to just read into the record -- I know you 24 had a sign -in sheet going around, but read into Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 34 1 the record the residents that are here on behalf 2 of the Civic League and their addresses. 3 Bazan, B- A- Z -A -N, 3862 4 Cannonball Trail -- 5 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Excuse me a 6 second. Would it be sufficient to just hand that 7 to -- get that into the record? 8 MR. BUCK: If there is a copy or I 9 can get a copy. 10 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: I think that we 11 can do that. Rather than take the time to read 12 all that, it will get into the record by just 13 handing it to us. 14 MR. BUCK: Okay. Very good. We'd 15 also like to have the petition that Miss Price 16 just spoke of admitted into the record as well. 17 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Sure. 18 MR. BUCK: The first thing I'd like 19 to do is address the plan. The plan that's been 20 presented tonight is slightly different than the 21 plan that we were previously provided with, and 22 if I can ask, I know Ms. Price asked some time 23 ago for a copy of the traffic impact study, but 24 we never received on. Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 35 1 I am wondering if we can 2 receive an actual copy of the traffic impact 3 study, if one was done. 4 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: The answer is 5 yes. 6 MR. BUCK: Okay. I don't know to 7 what extent that traffic report is, and I know 8 that in your PUD ordinance, the one that 9 Mr. Miller recently provided me, it says that you 10 can request certain types of studies to be done, 11 and I would like to reserve an objection to the 12 traffic study until we've had a chance to review 13 it. 14 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. 15 MR. BUCK: The other thing that I 16 would like to ask for by way of preliminary 17 matters -- and I believe it was Mr. Filler that 18 was speaking to it -- was the lighting plan. 19 In the presentation -- and I 20 note that going through the ordinance it breaks 21 down your PUD approval into three distinct phases 22 if you will, and I understand that we are at the 23 concept stage and that we are going to have 24 perhaps further public hearings on the actual Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 36 1 approval of the PUD; is that correct? 2 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Yes, it is. 3 MR. MILLER: Actually let me answer 4 that. The petition here tonight is for concept 5 PUD as well as preliminary PUD, so there is two 6 items on the agenda for consideration of the Plan 7 Commission tonight. 8 And you are correct that the 9 ordinance is written in three specific steps and 10 two of those are being petitioned for at this 11 time. 12 MR. BUCK: So is there going to be a 13 follow -up hearing on the final PUD or will there 14 not be? 15 MR. WYETH: Not a hearing, but a 16 public meeting. 17 MR. BUCK: I'm sorry? 18 MR. WYETH: Not a hearing, a public 19 meeting. 20 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: It's a public 21 meeting as opposed to a public hearing. 22 MR. BUCK: Okay. 23 MR. MILLER: Actually it goes for 24 the preliminary plan as well. The public hearing Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 37 1 is scheduled, but I just want to make sure it's 2 clear that what's in front of the Plan Commission 3 on the agenda tonight is the concept PUD as well 4 as the preliminary PUD. 5 MR. BUCK: Okay. Very good. 6 Consistent with that then, along with that 7 section of your PUD ordinance, which is -- I am 8 trying to see what section is in here -- looks 9 like it's 10 -13 -6, letter I, if you can request 10 that the petitioner provide you with a 11 photometric plan so we can actually take a look 12 at what the photometric plan would be, I don't 13 think they will have any problem doing that, 14 they'll have to do it anyway at some point, but 15 before you pass on it, if we can have it to look, 16 at the photometric plan. 17 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: I see the 18 petitioner shaking his head yes. 19 MR. BUCK: I'm sure they probably 20 already have one done. With respect to the plan 21 that's been presented this evening, Mr. Filler 22 has in many instances addressed the concerns that 23 the Civic League has regarding the development. 24 One of the phrases that he used Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 38 1 early on in his presentation was that the 2 development had achieved perfect transitional 3 zoning. 4 I would beg to differ with 5 Mr. Filler with respect to the east side or what 6 would be the west border of the Cannonball Trail 7 Civic League. 8 The area that was mentioned by 9 the individual who was speaking to the landscape 10 plan indicated six or eight residences, and it's 11 not six or eight residences. There is more than 12 that number of residences over there and there is 13 no transitional zoning along that side of the 14 plan, and certainly that should be a 15 consideration. 16 Under your amendment ordinance, 17 one of the things that is specifically 18 highlighted, as you know, is the impact that the 19 development is going to have by way of traffic, 20 and one of the prepatory remarks you made is we 21 don't want to get up here and have traffic, 22 traffic, traffic, but that's a very important 23 part of this plan, and it's a very significant 24 impact to the residences that are along Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 39 1 Cannonball Trail. 2 To that extent, the effort that 3 has gone into achieving what Mr. Filler described 4 as perfect transitional zoning along the northern 5 boundary of the property, I would agree with him, 6 that is substantial. 7 There has been no effort made 8 to do that on the eastern edge of the property 9 for the residences that are on Cannonball Trail, 10 and some effort -- I understand that they are 11 putting in a buffer, but they have located all of 12 or primarily -- a number of outlots along that 13 strip, which is going to create a tremendous 14 amount of traffic, and no zoning whatsoever near 15 commercial. 16 Your Comprehensive Plan calls 17 for that area to be residential with a commercial 18 strip along 34, so I would ask you to take that 19 into consideration as well, that the plan as it 20 is conceived does not have perfect transitional 21 zoning, certainly with respect to its eastern 22 border or the western border of Cannonball Trail 23 of the Civic League, excuse me. 24 In addition, one of the Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 40 1 comments that was made with respect to the 2 traffic study was that the traffic engineer 3 indicated that Cannonball Trail should be widened 4 to include a turn lane, if I heard -- if I 5 understood correctly. 6 MR. WOODWARD: Yes. 7 MR. BUCK: So it would actually be 8 widened. And one of the specific concerns for 9 this group of residences -- residents, excuse me, 10 is that Cannonball Trail not be widened, because 11 if you look at your Comprehensive Plan and you 12 look at your land use plan, as Cannonball Trail 13 proceeds north, the METRA station that is 14 proposed or at least indicated on the 15 comprehensive growing plan is in that northern 16 area, and to widen Cannonball Trail would, you 17 know, really be sticking the camel's nose into 18 the tent for expanding Cannonball Trail. 19 There is certainly no 20 prohibition against that happening in the future, 21 and once it's done, it opens it up. 22 That specific concern with 23 respect to -- it goes back to traffic, but it 24 also goes back to impact and it goes back to the Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 41 1 quality of life that these people have enjoyed 2 with the current space of the comprehensive land 3 plan, which, as you know, there is case law out 4 there that specifically speaks to the following 5 comprehensive plans are done for a reason to 6 ensure quality of life, not just for the people 7 who are coming into the area, but for the people 8 who are already there, and many of the residents 9 that you have in this area have been there for 10 quite a long time, and so to a certain extent, 11 they are to be protected by that. 12 So the residents would 13 specifically object to widening of Cannonball 14 Trail to include a third lane, if you will, or 15 widening that to three lanes. Regardless of on 16 whose property that road was widened, it should 17 not be widened. 18 With respect to the berm, the 19 plan indicated -- or I believe I heard that the 20 berm was to be a five -foot berm. We would ask 21 that the berm be increased seven to ten feet, and 22 there being no entrances or windows, if you are 23 familiar with these types of outlots that are 24 going along that side, there would be no reason Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 42 1 not to provide 100 percent screening along that 2 border for the people that are on Cannonball 3 Trail. 4 As it reflects in the landscape 5 plan that was provided, they indicated that they 6 wanted to have some open spots so that you could 7 see the buildings that are there. 8 Absent advertising on the 9 outside of those buildings, there would be no 10 reason to do that, and certainly there's not 11 going to be anybody that drives down Route 34 or 12 Beecher Road or Cannonball Trail that isn't going 13 to know that this development is there, so there 14 is no practical purpose for doing that other than 15 to advertise, and one of the goals that they have 16 articulated to you is to not have flashing or 17 outside lighting advertising on the outside of 18 those buildings, so there is no reason to do 19 that. 20 So 100 percent screening could 21 be achieved with a berm that could be increased 22 to seven to ten feet. 23 On the plan that we saw 24 tonight, it was a slightly different plan, as I Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 43 1 indicated, and one of the things that we did like 2 was the movement of the entrance that is -- lines 3 up with the Hickory Lane intersection. That is 4 very good. We are happy to see that. 5 We would like to limit it if 6 possible to one entrance, and if it is -- and we 7 would ask the developer to consider which 8 entrance is more important. 9 If it is indeed important to 10 have an entrance that would feed to the 11 single- family, then make that one entrance the 12 northern entrance. 13 The traffic engineer seemed to 14 indicate that there was concern regarding the 15 proximity of having two entrances into the 16 development and the traffic that might be 17 generated, and we would encourage the Commission 18 to consider that opinion, that is a valid 19 opinion, and to move that intersection farther 20 away from the intersection of 34 and Cannonball 21 Trail. 22 If you are going to keep a 23 second intersection, keep it aligned with 24 Hickory, but our request would be to remove that Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 44 1 entrance, alleviate traffic, and push the 2 intersection back. 3 It's not going to cause any 4 problems for people coming into the commercial 5 development to travel down what would be a very 6 short distance to enter into the commercial 7 development if their goal is to feed the 8 residential which is there, and I would offer as 9 an example if you've ever been to the commercial 10 development which is somewhat similar to this 11 that's on Randall Road off of Randall Road and 12 Route 38 or Roosevelt Road. 13 There is only two entrances to 14 come into that commercial center and they are 15 separated by actually significant distances, and 16 one is just an entrance only off of a side 17 street. 18 So there is support for the 19 fact that you don't need to have this additional 20 entrance and that it would alleviate the traffic 21 concerns that are being raised by the traffic 22 engineer. 23 One of the issues that 24 Mr. Filler had -- and this is a very significant Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 45 1 issue, and we understand that to a certain degree 2 it's not the -- it's not the developer's issue, 3 but it needs to be raised here, and that's the 4 location of the police station. 5 We understand that the 6 developer is -- or my impression is that the 7 developer is donating that land and receiving 8 some kind of bonus density or some kind of relief 9 for donating that land. 10 The residents would strongly 11 object to the location of the police station 12 being at that location. They don't feel that 13 it's an appropriate spot for the police station. 14 Obviously that is not a 15 residential use, that's going to be -- would 16 almost border on an industrial use, with what 17 happens at a police station. 18 The developer talked or had it 19 on his list of things that were being addressed, 20 but when he was going over that list he didn't 21 mention it. I don't know if that was an 22 oversight or that was simply acknowledging that 23 to a certain extent they don't have control over 24 that property once it's donated, and we Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 46 1 understand that. 2 To that extent, we would urge 3 the board to consider what uses can be achieved 4 with that spot. The land use as it stands, the 5 amount of land that is there, is significant, to 6 be sure. 7 The plan that we had originally 8 been provided showed a park, and then adjacent to 9 that park there were civic uses. 10 We would suggest that given the 11 nature of this commercial development and the 12 impact that it's going to have, the civic use 13 should be a park. It should totally be a park. 14 It should not be used as a police station or what 15 would be indicated on this plan as a civic use. 16 That would definitely increase the density. 17 There are other arguments that 18 I know that some of the residents who have lived 19 here for a long time would like to make regarding 20 the location of the police station, but from a 21 planning perspective, from a land planning 22 perspective, we would urge you to consider the 23 impact that that is going to have not only on the 24 residents of the Cannonball Trail Civic League, Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 47 1 but also the adjacent residents and the residents 2 that you're going to have moving into this 3 subdivision. 4 With the traffic that's going 5 to be along Cannonball Trail, if that's going to 6 be what is a police station for emergency uses, 7 that's going to be a very inconvenient location 8 for that police station to be. 9 So we would strongly urge you 10 to not use that as a police station, but to take 11 that as a park and include that in the plan as a 12 park. 13 One of the things that -- it 14 wasn't really touched on tonight, and I think 15 it's relevant, and we definitely want to know 16 given the nature of the development, the 17 complexity of the development and certainly the 18 scope of the development, what the stormwater 19 management plan is, and obviously that has a 20 tremendous impact on any development. 21 The residents that are here 22 tonight surround this area, and I know that to a 23 certain extent we would say well, there is 24 obviously a large area of retention that's Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 48 1 indicated on the plan. 18.92 acres is what my 2 plan shows. I don't know that that's the final. 3 But certainly when you are 4 creating that much impervious surface, the 5 stormwater management is definitely an issue, and 6 I don't know to what extent you have been 7 provided with information regarding stormwater 8 management. 9 We haven't heard any of that 10 tonight, and we would definitely encourage you to 11 please -- I would ask for a copy of whatever that 12 stormwater management plan is so that we can take 13 a look at that and figure out whether or not that 14 is going to create a problem. 15 I know the developer is going 16 to be extremely confident that it's not given his 17 18 -acre retention pond, but one of the things in 18 terms of a planning goal would be to perhaps take 19 and split up that detention pond and use it in a 20 way that would create a greater buffer for the 21 people on Cannonball Trail. 22 It's a open area of land. I 23 know that topography goes into that plan to be 24 certain, but to the extent that they have located Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 49 1 the detention in one area to shield the 2 residential development that they want to build 3 and sell to the exclusion of the existing 4 residential development, when they say they've i 5 achieved perfect transitional zoning, it doesn't 6 necessarily give credence to that situation. 7 So those are the major topic 8 items that we wanted to raise. I do know that 9 there are several residents here that would like 10 to speak to you regarding some of their 11 individual concerns. 12 We heed your comment regarding 13 repetition in the hope of keeping our comments on 14 task here. 15 Oh. There was one question I 16 did want to ask the traffic engineer and I am 17 sure that he mentioned it, but I don't recall 18 what the answer was. 19 Was the intersection of 20 Route 34 and Cannonball Trail to be a signalized 21 intersection? 22 MR. WOODWARD: It is. It is now. 23 MR. BUCK: What is the nature of the 24 expansion of the intersection? I Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 50 1 MR. WOODWARD: What, improvements 2 proposed? 3 MR. BUCK: Yes. 4 MR. WOODWARD: As I mentioned, 34 5 would be widened to provide two through lanes in 6 each direction, and essentially there will be 7 left -turn lanes and -- a left -turn lane on all 8 four approaches and a right -turn lane on all four 9 approaches. 10 MR. BUCK: Again I would reiterate 11 that that type of massing of an intersection does 12 not lend itself to what they proposed as a 13 three -lane road, and that is not going to stay a 14 three -lane road. 15 It won't stay a three -lane road 16 if the police station is built because they will 17 definitely demand greater access, and then to 18 consider that there is going to be a METRA 19 station to the north, hopefully, that's what's 20 indicated ON the land use plan, that does not 21 support a minimal intrusion or a diminished 22 impact, it promotes a significant impact, and I 23 would ask you to take that into consideration. 24 Now what we would like to do, Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 51 1 with the Chairman's permission, is to have those 2 residents that are here on behalf of the Civic 3 League to step forward if they choose to and 4 raise their own individual concerns. 5 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Do you have a 6 list of those people who wish to speak or do you 7 have them in any particular order? 8 MR. BUCK: I didn't have them in any 9 order, sir, I thought that as -- we have some 10 members that are more anxious to speak than 11 others and that will give the others a chance to 12 hear what has to be said so we don't have too 13 much repetition, and if somebody could direct me 14 to a copier, I will give you a copy. 15 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: See the staff 16 over here. Mr. Buck, just for the record, the 17 detention area on the copy that we got tonight, 18 the original one we saw was 18.92 acres, the one 19 tonight is 21.9 acres. That's just simply for 20 the record. I am not arguing one way or the 21 other. 22 MR. BUCK: No, I understand. I 23 haven't received the revised plan, so I don't 24 know what that is. Service 630 983 -0030 Depo Court Reporting ( ) 52 1 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Very good. And 2 we'll get copies for you. 3 MR. BUCK: Thank you. 4 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: At this time, 5 could I have somebody's hand that wishes to 6 speak? The gentleman towards the back. Yes. 7 MR. GILBERT: How far back? 8 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: You are it. 9 WHEREUPON: 10 JOE GILBERT, I 11 having been first duly sworn, testified before 12 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows: 13 MR. GILBERT: My name is Joe 14 Gilbert, and I live in that little corner up in 15 the northeast next to the pump station and next 16 to the police station. I've got a number of 17 concerns, but some comments. Well, I'd like to 18 preference my comments with a concern in general. 19 One of the residents in the 20 Civic League told me this, and she would have to 21 verify it, but she approached a Yorkville 22 official with questions about the growth in 23 Yorkville, and his comment was, "Why do you care? 24 You're not in the city limits." Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 53 1 That kind of raises a whole 2 sense of concern about the development in 3 general, but in this particular development, it 4 kind of reflects that attitude because the 5 transition development that they call for or 6 profess they have does not affect at all the 7 properties along Cannonball. That was stated 8 already. I'd like to expand on that point. 9 It's even worse than that 10 because many of these properties are estate -sized 11 lots, so you're going from estate -sized lots to 12 commercial retail. That's -- that's -- There is 13 no transition at all. 14 They talk about transition 15 going north; unfortunately those people are the 16 ones that are voting in Yorkville, so maybe 17 that's what they are concerned about. 18 If you take a look at that, the 19 development, the existing subdivision extends 20 west to about where that title says townhomes, 21 and the distance beyond that is still open and 22 vacant field, so their transition is going from 23 nothing to residential, so, you know, when they 24 talk about a perfect transition, there is a lot Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 54 1 of things wrong with that statement. 2 Going from estate to commercial 3 and going from vacant land to residential, those 4 aren't transition developments, all right? 5 I think by switching this 6 around you can achieve both. Another comment 7 they made was they -- wanted the focus of this 8 development to be the northeast corner of Beecher 9 and 34. 10 There are no stores facing that 11 corner. You are looking at the back of Super 12 Target. Home Depot is facing Cannonball. So 13 their comment about the focal point is completely 14 contrary then to their plan. 15 The entire focal point is going 16 to Cannonball and 34, in that corner, so, you 17 know, their comments don't make sense with what 18 they are presenting. 19 Specific comments or concerns I 20 have, we had met them earlier and I had made a 21 concern about the run -off. 22 Currently that curved part of 23 my property is a run -off creek. I am guessing 24 about a third, maybe a fourth, of that field Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 55 1 slopes toward my property. 2 Currently with the crops and 3 the land, a lot of that moisture from rain gets 4 absorbed. The creek is not in too bad of shape. 5 Their proposal changes that 6 completely. Now I've got a parking lot, I've got 7 grass, I've got rooftops. You know, a lot of 8 that run -off is now going to end up in my creek, 9 so pollution, run -off, the flooding concerns. 10 That's what detention areas are 11 supposed to control, and they don't offer that at 12 all for my property. 13 One of the comments they made 14 to me is oh, we've got all kinds of engineering 15 to show that's not an issue. I haven't seen any 16 of that, but I have a hard time believing the 17 engineering that could offer sloping uphill to 18 that retention pond. 19 I don't know how deep that 20 retention pond has to be to get that negative 21 slope, and that's hard for me to fathom that that 22 could be that deep to be successful. I guess 23 that's all. 24 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. Thank Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 I I 56 1 you, Mr. Gilbert. Who would like to be next? 2 Another hand towards the back. Yes, sir. 3 WHEREUPON: 4 JOHN VESTER, 5 having been first duly sworn, testified before 6 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows: 7 MR. VESTER: My name is John Vester. 8 I live on Hickory Lane. And I would ask that if i 9 you do decide to line up one of the entrances 10 with Hickory Lane that you maybe consider it 11 being a right turn in and a right turn out only. 12 We have a very quaint, dead -end 13 street there, and I would certainly not like to 14 see a lot of traffic just wandering because it's 15 directly across Cannonball, and pulling in and 16 turning around in my driveway. I think you could 17 see where that might happen. 18 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Just to clarify I 19 that, could I ask the traffic engineer, was that 20 proposed? Was that a right -in, right -out, or 21 not? 22 MR. WOODWARD: It's a full. 23 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: It's a full. 24 Okay. Thank you. Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 57 1 MR. VESTER: The other thing that I 2 would ask -- and this is really not along the 3 lines of some of the concerns that have been 4 expressed -- but I would hope that during 5 construction of this project they would consider 6 using just local contractors so we support our 7 local economy so we don't end up with like the 8 apartment problem that we had in town here where, 9 you know, we just had license plates from all 10 over this country and all the money that was 11 earned went other places instead of into the 12 local economy here, so I would really like to 13 stress that, you know, maybe in their 14 leases and -- you know, I'm not sure of the exact 15 term I need to use here, but when they are 16 building it that it's required that they use 17 local contractors, you know, from the area and 18 local workers. That's all I have. Thank you. 19 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. Thank 20 you, John. Next? Lady right over there. 21 WHEREUPON: 22 JUDY VANT, 23 having been first duly sworn, testified before 24 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows: Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 58 1 MS. VANT: My name is Judy Vant. I 2 live at 3630 Cannonball Trail. When this was 3 first presented at -- I believe it was at the 4 City Council meeting the first time, Rose Spears, 5 when talking about the amount of traffic, 6 immediately said well, then we should widen 7 Cannonball to four lanes and right now we are 8 discussing three lanes. 9 I am just past this project on 10 the east side of the road and I have five trees 11 that would be affected, three of them are within 12 eight feet of the end of the right -of -way right 13 now as it stands, so that's a concern for me. 14 That changes the total look of my property if all 15 of those trees were gone. 16 I have one other question. I 17 know that -- I believe it's mandated by the State 18 of Illinois regarding wetlands, any type 19 agricultural property is changed to a 20 non - agricultural use. 21 There are two large wet areas 22 that are very visible from 34 when there is no 23 crop in the wintertime. 24 Is it planned that there will Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 59 1 be a proper study done of these two wetlands 2 prior to any final approval of this property? 3 MR. MILLER: That's actually already 4 been completed by the petitioner and was 5 submitted as part of their preliminary plans. 6 There is a wetland delineation 7 report as well as a wetland assessment of the 8 entire acreage, and that led to the siting of the 9 large detention feature that you see on the 10 plans. 11 MS. VANT: Thank you. 12 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Thank you, Judy. 13 There was another hand off to the back over here 14 a minute ago. Yes, sir. 15 WHEREUPON: 16 STEVE BAZAN, 17 having been first duly sworn, testified before 18 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows: 19 MR. BAZAN: Steve Bazan. I live on 20 Cannonball Trail. And she was right about the 21 wetland. You've got the Target building right on 22 top of the wetland and half of that parking lot 23 and also way up on the top of the land where that 24 is not an arrow pointing do, there is some Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 60 1 letters on top, way up on top, there is a big wet 2 area up there. 3 And I farmed this land for 25 4 years, so I know a little bit about it, and the 5 pond that they have recommended for a retention 6 pond is on the highest ground on the whole field, 7 so that's what I am saying. 8 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Thanks, Dave. 9 Way in the back. Vernon. 10 WHEREUPON: 11 VERNON WITTE, 12 having been first duly sworn, testified before 13 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows: 14 MR. WITTE: To the north there is a 15 field that has houses built on it. The last time 16 in 1 95 we had a flood, that whole field was under 17 water two and a half feet. All of it. 18 So they put a little bit of a 19 retention pond on the far side there. Once this 20 is done, that means that everything there is 21 going to be asphalt, so the retention, is that 22 going to bleed off into the creek? It's all 23 going to stay on there? There will be no pipes 24 to anything leaving the property? Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 61 1 MR. STUEPFERT: No, it will. 2 MR. WITTE: You will what? 3 MR. STUEPFERT: There will be a slow 4 release out of the basin. 5 MR. WITTE: So you are going to 6 release to the creek. 7 MR. STUEPFERT: To the south. To 8 the river. 9 MR. WITTE: So you are going 10 straight south to the Fox River, you're not going 11 to Blackberry Creek at all. 12 Because that's very important. 13 Because, like I said, we have pictures in '95 of 14 that whole subdivision under water, two and a 15 half feet of water. 16 So there is an extreme amount 17 of water that comes down through there when it 18 rains real heavy and that needs to be addressed 19 severely. It's not a big enough pond. 20 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. Lady over 21 here. 22 WHEREUPON: 23 TINA LINDSTRAND, 24 having been first duly sworn, testified before Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 62 1 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows: 2 MS. LINDSTRAND: My name is Tina 3 Lindstrand. I live in 2388 Sumac Drive, and 4 that's in the Whispering Meadows subdivision. 5 I have two different questions. 6 One of them is that I haven't heard anything 7 being addressed about the traffic in regards to 8 the truck traffic for goods being shipped to 9 these locations, whether they are restaurants or 10 retail, and if Cannonball Trail is going to 11 remain at the limitations they are at or if 12 that's going to change because, you know, I'd 13 hate to see that occur. So I don't know if 14 anybody can address that. 15 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Would you care 16 to address that now or would you like to wait? 17 MR. FILLER: We'll wait. 18 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. 19 MR. WITTE: And the second thing is 20 whatever happens with this facility, I live way 21 up north and I see a lot of pedestrian traffic on 22 Cannonball Trail right now and, as you know, 23 there is no shoulder, there is no sidewalks, 24 nothing, and I've seen kids go back and forth on Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 63 1 skateboards to the skate park, to the churches. 2 I've seen a mother with her baby carrier in the 3 back of her bike riding. 4 You know, I just -- I don't 5 know if that can be addressed no matter what 6 happens with this facility because it's -- 7 traffic is going to increase regardless as 8 Yorkville grows, period, but I'd hate to see 9 something happen there that could be avoided if 10 there is some sidewalk or path or something put 11 in. 12 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. Very 13 good. Thank you, Tina. Before we come back to 14 you, is there somebody else before we go a second 15 round? Yes, sir. Gentleman over here. 16 WHEREUPON: 17 BOB CLACK, 18 having been first duly sworn, testified before 19 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows: 20 MR. CLACK: My name is Bob Clack and 21 I live at 3974 Cannonball Trail. Originally my 22 driveway would have been almost directly across 23 from the first proposed entrance off of 24 Cannonball Trail. I see they have moved that up Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 64 1 to Hickory Lane. 2 Well, that helps me, but it 3 doesn't help my neighbor to the north. They're 4 going to have the same problem I was. 5 I understand they want a four 6 stop sign. If that's the case -- 7 MR. FILLER: No. 8 MR. CLACK: Is it a sign or a light? 9 MR. FILLER: Nothing. 10 MR. CLACK: Nothing? 11 MR. FILLER: Just -- 12 MR. WOODWARD: On Hickory Lane and 13 Cannonball Trail remains free. 14 MR. CLACK: Anyway, the traffic 15 problem will move further north of me. It will 16 alleviate my problem a little, but my neighbor 17 two houses to the north will have the same 18 problem I was going have, she won't be able to 19 get out on the road. 20 There will be so much traffic 21 she will constantly have to wait and wait and 22 wait, so that is one of my concerns. 23 The traffic on that road should 24 not be increased. It's just not a big enough Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 65 1 road. 2 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. Thank 3 you. Gentleman over here, please. 4 WHEREUPON: 5 DON HAWKY, 6 having been first duly sworn, testified before 7 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows: 8 MR. HAWKY: Don Hawky (phonetic). 9 1184 Western Lane. I would be to the north of 10 this. 11 Just to clarify things, which 12 plan are we looking at? Because the one that I 13 was presented tonight is totally different than 14 what is shown right there. 15 The one that is shown right 16 there is the one that I received at the very 17 beginning of this, of -- not tonight's meeting. 18 Tonight's meeting is this one. Is this the 19 newest version or is that? Is it going to stay 20 that way? 21 MR. FILLER: It's going to change 22 again. And part of this process, the public 23 process, is to listen to your concerns and to 24 make changes that reflect your concerns as best Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 66 1 as we can, and so what you are seeing when you 2 see the plan changing and you see this road going 3 from here up to here, it means we are listening 4 to the concerns, and by the time we get through 5 this public process, is that hopefully that we 6 have met the challenges of the site and done the 7 best we can to reflect the concerns of the 8 citizens. 9 MR. HAWKY: What I'm asking, though, 10 is this the latest version because -- 11 MR. FILLER: As of today, yes. 12 MR. HAWKY: Because I would have a 13 concern with this road right here, which would be 14 Highpoint. 15 MR. FILLER: This would be closer to 16 the plan today. 17 MR. HAWKY: Okay. So my concern 18 would be Highpoint Ridge. I would not want that 19 to be a through -way like it is in this plan. 20 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: I'm sorry, which 21 road? 22 MR. HAWKY: Be Highpoint Ridge. 23 THE AUDIENCE: High Ridge. 24 MR. HAWKY: High Ridge? Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 67 1 MR. SCHILLINGER: Which is High 2 Ridge? 3 MR. HAWKY: It's actually in the 4 middle. 5 UNIDENTIFIED AUDIENCE MEMBER: To 6 the right. 7 MR. SCHILLINGER: You are stubbed 8 now, right? 9 MR. HAWKY: Correct, correct. But 10 once it's built, it will be a through -way. 11 MR. SCHILLINGER: But it was stubbed 12 for future expansion. 13 UNIDENTIFIED AUDIENCE MEMBER: 14 Residential. 15 MR. HAWKY: The first plan I saw it 16 came to a T. I'd be fine with a T. You know, it 17 came up to houses and then split apart. 18 I don't really like it way it 19 flows straight through this way. I think we 20 would have a major problem with traffic speeding 21 through there. 22 UNIDENTIFIED AUDIENCE MEMBER: We 23 have a problem with traffic speeding now. 24 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: We have somebody i Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 68 1 at the microphone. Please. 2 MR. HAWKY: So that's obviously one 3 concern of mine with this plan. 4 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: I understand. I 5 understand. 6 MR. HAWKY: Another concern is we 7 would like to see the multi - family housing to 8 stay single- family if at all possible, you know. 9 I would not like to look out my 10 backyard and see townhomes, apartment complexes, 11 I would like to see all that stay single- family, 12 preferably detached single - family, if possible, 13 but if we can make these higher end and just 14 single- family, you know, to stay with what's in 15 our neighborhood, that would be nice. 16 Another concern is, you know, 17 obviously lighting and the restaurant, the smell 18 of the restaurant. 19 Right now I have a nice breeze 20 going through my house, don't need air 21 conditioning. I think that will change 22 dramatically once the restaurants start cooking, 23 a lot of grease in the air. You know, how are 24 those going to be handled? And I think that's Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 69 1 about it. 2 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. Thank 3 you. Right down the middle. 4 WHEREUPON: 5 GARY MATLOCK, 6 having been first duly sworn, testified before 7 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows: 8 MR. MATLOCK: Gary Matlock, 3960 9 Cannonball Trail. I live just next house north 10 of Mr. Bob Clack, and I agree with the proposed 11 change of Bob's point to that southern entrance 12 off of Cannonball that they moved from -- that 13 splits our two driveways, you know, right -in, 14 right -out only up to Hickory, okay? 15 I also agree that -- Mr. Vester 16 was up earlier, he lives directly behind me off 17 of Hickory, that that change would affect -- 18 could affect the six or seven residents that live 19 on that dead -end Hickory Lane. 20 Also, Mr. Bazan and Ms. Olson, 21 who live on each corner on the east side of 22 Cannonball where that proposed relocation of that 23 west entrance and east exit off of that property, 24 they would be more affected now than I or Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 70 1 Mr. Clack. 2 I am concerned also about any 3 type of change along Cannonball because I have 4 incurred an expense of putting in a turn around 5 so I can -- my wife and I can pull out 24/7, 365, 6 onto Cannonball, right or left, because of Bob -- 7 point to about where that little rise of -- just 8 north of Hickory is. 9 MR. CLACK: Right here. 10 MR. MATLOCK: Yep. At 45 miles an I 11 hour, which we know is obeyed, and then you add a I 12 proposed Yorkville police station, now we'll have 13 Kendall County and Yorkville Police half a mile 14 apart and emergency vehicles, and there is no 15 support, safety support, on the south side of 16 town, and I live right about -- show them right 17 where we live. 18 I have been there 15 years, 19 Mr. Clack has been there 43? 20 MR. CLACK: 43, yes. 21 MR. MATLOCK: So other than watching 22 all the people pull into Hickory and turn around 23 back where Mrs. Price lives, Mrs. Price is the 24 last house on the left -- actually Mr. Clack's, Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 71 1 my driveway, all the people are incurring a lot 2 more people turning around going north, oops, got 3 to go back out over south, or going south, oops, 4 got to go back north. 5 As well as I just saw two 6 18- wheelers turn around on -- Bob, show them the 7 corner -- of the ERM, two 18- wheelers do a 360 8 and go back to 34. You know why? Menard's is 9 now the third light westbound from Yorkville. 10 I enjoy seeing the speed limit 11 signs being placed after the resurfacing of 12 Cannonball from 34 to -- 13 MR. CLACK: 47. 14 MR. MATLOCK: Yeah, and the lines 15 and the lighting improvements, okay, and the 16 tonnage limit replaced, although that hasn't been 17 obeyed, a sign off of 34, north and south. 18 One last point, being a teacher 19 and a grandfather and now a father and now a 20 grandfather, step - grandfather, all that, I now 21 have a three -year old on this one -acre lot that I 22 own, and I've got -- thanks to previous problems, 23 I've got an electric fence up to keep my two 24 Dalmations in and off of 34 and other people's Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 72 1 residence at my thousand dollar expense. 2 I put a thousand dollars in a 3 turn around just to get by so I could pull out on 4 Cannonball Trail safely, particularly in winter, 5 bad weather. 6 And now with a three -year old, 7 I am thinking about having to put up a fence 8 because traffic does not go 45 down there, 9 particularly police traffic, and proposed city 10 police traffic, to keep my three -year old adopted 11 child now safe. 12 And other people that live 13 along the east side of Cannonball, north and 14 south, I understand there is a lot of new 15 residents north of me, but the safety concern and 16 the traffic concern, which is a problem, has been 17 a problem and is a problem now. 18 I've had some near misses, and 19 to prevent that, I wish you would listen to my 20 concern, and particularly for the pedestrian 21 traffic that's there, along with all the other 22 children north and south on that road. Thank 23 you. 24 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Thank you, Gary. Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 73 1 Let's take the one lady over on your far right. 2 WHEREUPON: 3 JULIE DANFORTH, 4 having been first duly sworn, testified before 5 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows: i 6 MS. DANFORTH: Hi. I am Julie 7 Danforth. I live at Kylyn's Ridge. I had a 8 question in regards to there is like a little 9 road next to the park there. 10 Is that for parking or -- I 11 know it doesn't show through, but I was just 12 wondering what that was for. 13 MR. FILLER: It actually connects to 14 the stub road that's currently there right next 15 to the park. 16 MS. DANFORTH: There is no parking 17 next to the road. There is this one, but what is 18 this right here? 19 MR. FILLER: Nothing. 20 MS. DANFORTH: Why would it be there 21 then? 22 MR. FILLER: It's probably not 23 there. Does this connect? Is there a road? 24 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Could you point Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 74 1 out -- 2 MR. FILLER: I'm sorry, where we're 3 talking. It's not showing on that plan. I'm 4 sorry. 5 MR. MILLER: Single - family lots, 6 which -- 7 MR. FILLER: Travis, it's not -- 8 it's not there. 9 MS. DANFORTH: Okay. 10 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Did we answer 11 your question? 12 MS. DANFORTH: It's not there. 13 Okay. I was just wondering what effect that 14 would have on the park. 15 Also, too, I don't know if you 16 could address this question, but between the 17 single- family housing and Kylyn's Ridge there was 18 proposed a bike path by the park district, and 19 the park district does own the land, I believe 30 20 feet if I'm correct. 21 Do we know what's going on with 22 that? Is there going to be -- Would these 23 single - family housing butt up to the 24 single- family housing in Kylyn's? Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 75 1 MR. MILLER: That 30 foot would 2 remain, that's part of the Kylyn's subdivision 3 plat. That's part of the subdivision. That's 4 not part of the petitions or plans that are up 5 for consideration tonight, so that strip of land 6 will remain regardless of what happens to the 7 property to the south of that. 8 MS. DANFORTH: Okay. So we don't 9 know yet. Would that be a better question for 10 the park district, what they are planning on 11 that? 12 MR. MILLER: Would be as the future 13 of this unfolds to the south and as the alignment 14 of that trail that is determined, the most 15 appropriate location will be identified. At this 16 point -- 17 MS. DANFORTH: There is a proposed 18 bike path to go through there, okay. 19 MR. MILLER: Right. And the land 20 was actually dedicated to the city, to the park 21 board, for purposes of a bike trail, so at this 22 point that will be a bike trail. 23 MS. DANFORTH: Okay. Two final 24 questions. The Home Depot, where it is located, Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 76 1 I would -- as a consumer myself would want to 2 turn down Cannonball and not go through 34 to go 3 through all those outlets, so I could see the 4 concern there with the traffic that they're going 5 to either go down to whatever that would be 6 called, Hickory Lane, or the next proposed 7 intersection there, and I didn't know -- the 8 thoughts to -- that maybe flipping over to 9 Beecher, if they're going to make that more the 10 center of your development and things like that, 11 because people aren't going to go driving through 12 34 through all those lots to Home Depot. 13 And then also, too, on this 14 proposed one, I didn't see, there was a movie 15 theater proposed. That has now been eliminated? 16 MR. FILLER: Correct. 17 MS. DANFORTH: Okay. Thank you. 18 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Thank you. 19 Gentleman over here, please. 20 WHEREUPON: 21 OTTO KOCH, 22 having been first duly sworn, testified before 23 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows: 24 MR. KOCH: My name is Otto Koch. I Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 77 1 live at 3524 Cannonball Trail. I have the third 2 house past this, and I'm going to talk a little 3 bit about traffic. 4 The real problem on Cannonball 5 is there is too much traffic already. It's 6 really not about the shopping center. 7 And the solution to that 8 problem would be to complete Beecher, even though 9 that is also not their responsibility, make that 10 a major thoroughfare and downgrade Cannonball 11 Trail to take traffic off instead of add it on. 12 I'd also like to address that 13 exit, the second exit. Part of the problem of 14 that exit is coming out. It's going to go right 15 into somebody's living room. 16 Now, my house happens to be 17 adjacent to what is now Alice, and it just comes 18 out of the corner of my property, so those lights 19 aren't shining in my window, but 24 hours a day 20 you see the lights go flashing by the window, 21 sometimes in your face. 22 Well, if the house is right in 23 front of that, it's going to be very severely 24 impacted by exiting traffic, and something needs Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 78 1 to be done about that. That's not fair to most 2 of these people. 3 I am the newcomer on Cannonball 4 Trail. I have only lived here for 15 years. 5 Most of the other people on Cannonball Trail have 6 lived there for over 35 years. 7 Almost all of the people who 8 spoke tonight have lived here for a very long 9 time, long before Yorkville ever thought it would 10 grow like this, and it's really not fair, even 11 though they are not in the city, to ignore their 12 concerns, and I certainly hope you don't. 13 Things like those lights coming 14 out on their houses, those houses are closer to 15 the road, they are going to be more impacted. 16 We need to do something to cut 17 the traffic, and I don't see how that can be done 18 unless there is another road built for the 19 purpose. 20 Lastly, just one question, on 21 that setback. My property goes to the center of 22 Cannonball Trail. 23 Does your property go to the 24 center of Cannonball Trail? Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 79 1 MR. FILLER: No. No, our setback -- 2 MR. KOCH: Because if you are 3 measuring from the center of Cannonball Trail to 4 the property, you are losing a bunch of yards 5 right away, and that would be something to 6 consider. All right. That's all I have to say. 7 Thank you. 8 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: All right. 9 Thank you. Gentleman here in the first row. 10 WHEREUPON: 11 ARTHUR CRAWFORD, 12 having been first duly sworn, testified before 13 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows: 14 MR. CRAWFORD: My name is Arthur 15 Crawford and I live on 20 Hickory Lane, Yorkville 16 mailing address. 17 I am looking at this plan and I 18 see the single- family housing separated from the 19 business section and the multi- family housing 20 separated from the business section, and all I do 21 is I is submit a petition that you give the same 22 considerations to the people along Cannonball 23 Trail as you do to the people that are going to 24 buy the housing in this plan. Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 80 1 This plan fairly well separates 2 the housing from the business section. That's 3 all the people on Cannonball are asking. Please. 4 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. Thank 5 you. Back here, please. 6 WHEREUPON: 7 ERIC DANFORTH, 8 having been first duly sworn, testified before 9 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows: 10 MR. DANFORTH: Eric Danforth, 11 11 Hickory Lane, and I'd like to follow up on a 12 point made just a moment ago by Mr. Koch, and 13 that is, you know, Cannonball Trail is largely 14 from 47 to 34 residential, and I would say very 15 much low to medium density housing at that. 16 Putting in a police station and 17 a commercial -type development in the remaining 18 open space along that road doesn't match up with 19 any textbook or any evidence of good planning 20 that I have seen in other communities in the 21 Chicago suburbs in the area. 22 I think it is very possible for 23 this development to go through with Beecher Road, 24 though, being the focal point as we heard Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 81 1 recently, and I can throw -- I can think of a few 2 examples in my mind where that's taken place. 3 If you think of U.S. 34 over in 4 Oswego, most of that fronts 34, most of the 5 entrances. A secondary entrance is Douglas Road 6 and that is undeveloped; Cannonball Trail is 7 mostly developed. 8 Another one, State Route 59 and 9 95th, which I think is a development that this 10 organization has put together, which involves I 11 think a movie theater. 12 95th to the east of 59 is a 13 four -lane divided highway with turn lanes down 14 the middle, which is exactly what Beecher Road is 15 destined to be. 16 I kind of think, though, that 17 with Beecher Road not going through already at 18 this time that Cannonball Trail is kind of 19 designed to be -- to cripple along for access to 20 this development until Beecher is done, but I 21 think once we do that, once we open up those turn 22 lanes into the development, the damage is already 23 done and those entrances will be there forever 24 and the traffic pattern will stay. Thank you. Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 82 1 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Thank you. Yes, 2 sir. At this time I would ask after this 3 gentleman speaks if there is any new concerns. 4 I think we have heard the 5 concerns, we are starting to get repetitive on 6 it. I believe we understand the position many of 7 you are taking, so if there are some new 8 concerns, that's what I'd like to hear. 9 WHEREUPON: 10 CHRIS FUNKHOUSER, 11 having been first duly sworn, testified before 12 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows: 13 MR. FUNKHOUSER: Chris Funkhouser, 14 903 Canyon Trail. Just a few quick comments. 15 I think this plan was done 16 pretty well by the petitioner. They have 17 addressed a lot of the issues that were raised 18 previously, so I would like to commend them on 19 that. They have tried to address our comments. 20 But I do think that if they 21 could possibly look at some of these issues that 22 were mentioned, flipping the development possibly 23 to front onto Beecher, as that is to be the 24 larger road of the two that they are fronting on, Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 83 1 I think that may be ultimately something that 2 will benefit their development overall. 3 Especially with the fact that 4 Beecher is intended to extend up to Faxon, which 5 we know will be extended out to Route 47 with 6 their realignment. 7 I think that is something that 8 they should really look at, since those two roads 9 are going to be the major connections to this 10 portion of the town. 11 Also, with the amount of 12 pavement that we have here, I think that the 13 developer should consider bioswales and 14 filtration systems in order to remove heavy 15 metals from this parking to get that into their 16 stormwater and also help the watershed, so we 17 don't have negative impacts here. 18 Also just one comment on the 19 trail that was on the south side of Kylyn's 20 Ridge. I believe the original intent was to have 21 30 feet dedicated from Kylyn's and then an 22 additional 50 from this development as to create 23 a large trail that would go over to the 24 north /south trail around Rob Roy Creek. Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 84 1 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. Thank 2 you. Tom. 3 WHEREUPON: 4 TOM PRICE, 5 having been first duly sworn, testified before 6 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows: 7 MR. PRICE: I am Tom Price, and I 8 have lived in Yorkville a long time, over 40 9 years. Our present home at 29 Hickory Lane, we 10 have been there probably 34, 35 years. 11 I have a question. Was someone 12 on your property today? 13 WHEREUPON: 14 JIM SNYDER, 15 having been first duly sworn, testified before 16 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows: 17 MR. SNYDER: Not that we are aware 18 of. 19 MR. PRICE: Okay. Well, I want to 20 report this then, that someone was. 21 And are you going to use 22 Hickory Lane as a parking lot for your 23 construction equipment? 24 MR. SNYDER: No. Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 85 1 MR. PRICE: Okay. That happened 2 today. And I'm kind of a tidy person, I like to 3 keep my place and my drive and my sidewalks 4 clean. 5 Well, now there is mud on 6 Hickory Lane from a Bobcat that was on your 7 property, so you might want to check that out. 8 So already you're not a good neighbor. 9 (Laughter) 10 MR. PRICE: I taught marketing, and 11 there is three secrets in marketing. That's 12 location, location, location. 13 If I was going to invest all 14 the money and time and energy that you people are 15 in this project, I would want a better location. 16 I would want major highways like 34, 47, not a 17 country road like Cannonball. 18 Okay. Why am I saying that, 19 okay? I'm not going to be here forever and 20 neither are you. 21 You have comprehensive plans, 22 people go by them. I think you need to follow 23 them. 24 And it's been stated by Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 86 1 officials that the commercial area should be like 2 on the east side of 47. 3 Okay. Strip malls, they are 4 the in- thing, okay? We accept those. On 34 and 5 Cannonball Trail on the south side, there is some 6 nice buildings and so forth, okay? That's all 7 right, and they bring in economic dollars for the 8 City of Yorkville. Okay. 9 Boy, was I in for a shock. The 10 first time the signs for the buildings went on, 11 when I pulled back into our lane, headed towards 12 my house, big bright lights. I mean, big 13 letters. And so it's like a big nightlight for 14 us, and we're a ways off of 34. So I really 15 don't think that was real considerate, but that's 16 the way it is. 17 And then I was somewhere -- as 18 I am always somewhere -- I noticed that a lot of 19 places they don't have big signs, and why do you 20 have such big signs on 34? But that's besides 21 the point. That has nothing to do with this. 22 So what I'm saying is that I'm 23 for progress, and we've had shopping centers 24 before and got a lot of good ideas. i Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 87 1 I think we need to pull them 2 together and let people cooperate and work 3 together and pick out the best location for this 4 and make a lot of people happy. 5 Don't dump on people that have 6 been in the community, have served the community, 7 and will continue to do so regardless of what 8 happens because we care about the community. 9 So, please, plan. Discuss it 10 with us. Don't try and pull something. That's 11 not going to work. 12 And we have learned a lot from 13 this and many other things, and Cannonball Trail 14 I don't want to turn it into a construction zone, 15 which it will, and after that there's just going 16 to be more traffic, more traffic, and I just kind 17 of laugh when I see the semis, you know, turn 18 around on Cannonball. Bless their hearts because 19 they recognize the sign that they are wrong and 20 so they admit it and go away. 21 So, people, it's up to you. 22 You can make good decisions or you can make some 23 that aren't so good. So thank you. 24 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Thank you, Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 88 1 Tom. 2 (Applause) 3 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: I see one more 4 hand. Is this a new concern now? I see two 5 hands, excuse me. Is this a new concern? Okay. 6 Would you please come forward? 7 WHEREUPON: 8 MICHELLE PITSTICK, 9 having been first duly sworn, testified before 10 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows: 11 MS. PITSTICK: I am Michelle 12 Pitstick from 963 Western Lane. I had several, 13 but they have been covered quite well by 14 everyone. 15 Because these plans have 16 changed, I was looking to get a little bit better 17 time line on the commercial versus residential 18 growth, what kind of time frame we are looking 19 at. 20 The other thing is I'd like to 21 know is what kind of developers we have I 22 entertained for these homes. I am concerned 23 about my property value. Thanks. 24 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: I saw one more I Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 89 1 hand in the back. 2 WHEREUPON: 3 MARY ANN KAWCZYNSKI, 4 having been first duly sworn, testified before 5 the Yorkville Plan Commission as follows: 6 MS. KAWCZYNSKI: Hi. My name is 7 Mary Ann Kawczynski, and I live at the other end 8 of Cannonball, 3193. 9 My sister and I were the ones 10 that went out and solicited all the signatures on 11 the petition, and the response was overwhelming, 12 let me sign right now, you know, and I think we 13 got a couple refusals. 14 One was a teenager that wanted 15 Cannonball widened and the other was an alderman 16 who couldn't sign, so that was about it. 17 I want to thank you for that 18 presentation. It made me want to go shopping 19 right now, it sounded so good, but I really would 20 rather drive eight miles. 21 (Laughter) 22 MS. KAWCZYNSKI: I guess I want to 23 talk about the widening of Cannonball because 24 that's an issue where I live. Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 90 1 We are the first house off of 2 47, west of 47. I know they are going to have 3 some venture looming there soon, so the road 4 needs to be widened, but we have not been 5 notified, asked or anything. We have barriers 6 across our front lawn already without any 7 notification. 8 I was told that -- Well, I talk 9 to everybody in this whole area, but the city 10 told the developer to pay for the widening, the 11 developer didn't know that it was private land he 12 was going onto, and, you know, it was just the 13 run around, but if they can do that in our end of 14 Cannonball, you know, I just see eventually it's 15 going to be a highway, and it's very sad, you 16 know. 17 We came here from Chicago for 18 like peace and quiet. The first year we were 19 fighting a gas station next door. 20 It's like -- you know, it's -- 21 and today I spent a good part of my afternoon 22 with a three -year old that cut the tip of her 23 finger almost off. She got it caught in our 24 recliner. I had to drive all the way to Sandwich Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 91 1 and had to wait there in the emergency room. 2 There is no immediate care -- I 3 know this has nothing to do with you -- no 4 immediate care center in the area. So maybe if 5 you donate that land to an immediate care center, 6 I'd be more for it. Thanks a lot. 7 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Carl, one more 8 time, then that's it. I think -- I'm sorry, not 9 Carl. Joe. I'm sorry. 10 MR. GILBERT: Thank you. Apologize 11 for the second visit. The home value, I had 12 realtors come by to try to get an idea of the 13 impact on this. 14 One realtor suggested $50,000 15 impact on my property value because this is going 16 to go in, so this is real to me. 17 Also, on the Cannonball, when 18 talking to developers earlier, I don't blame them 19 for putting those exits on there because they had 20 been approached by apparently a Yorkville 21 official wanting to use Cannonball because 22 Beecher is not ready, and to me that's a wrong 23 approach. 24 Beecher is going to be built to Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 92 1 handle the traffic for a short -term of 2 inconvenience because it's only going to come off 3 of 34, seems to be a better solution than a 4 long -term negative effect on a lot of people 5 along Cannonball. Thank you. 6 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. 7 MR. MATLOCK: Sir, critical point, 8 15 seconds. 9 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. After 10 this, I'm going to ask the developer to respond. 11 MR. MATLOCK: Thank you. Gary 12 Matlock. Bob, point to the west side of the 13 proposed -- what's that? 14 MR. CLACK: Beecher. 15 MR. MATLOCK: Beecher. I would -- 16 What we spent the last hour talking about, I 17 would like to know the status of the two or 300 18 acres that are west of Beecher, what the -- how 19 it's zoned or what the status is versus the east 20 side of Cannonball. 21 MR. MILLER: You are speaking 22 about -- 23 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: I'm sorry, west 24 of Beecher? Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 93 1 MR. MILLER: West of Beecher? 2 MR. MATLOCK: Yeah. The proposed 3 development is about 200 acres west of 4 Cannonball. 5 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: West of 6 Cannonball. 7 MR. MATLOCK: Yeah, what's there, 8 that's about 200 acres. West of Beecher is about 9 another two or 300 acres, but it's right now full 10 of corn and beans. I'd like to know that status. 11 Agriculture? 12 MR. MILLER: That's currently 13 unincorporated, so it is zoned Kendall County. 14 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Kendall County. 15 MR. MATLOCK: Okay. But Beecher is 16 going to go north and south and split that? 17 MR. MILLER: Correct. 18 MR. MATLOCK: Thank you. 19 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Greg, do you 20 care to respond to some of this? 21 MR. FILLER: Certainly. I will keep 22 my comments brief also. As it relates to 23 stormwater management, stormwater management 24 principles, it will be done in accordance to your I Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 94 1 ordinance, stormwater ordinance, Kendall County 2 stormwater ordinance. 3 Smith Engineering actually has 4 their office across the street from the site. 5 They understand the site and will follow all 6 applicable rules and regulations. We don't need 7 a shopping center that you can't shop at because 8 it's flooded. 9 As it relates to taking this 10 city's tax dollars eight miles out of the town is 11 a bad idea for growth. What this shopping center 12 does is create a financial vehicle for this 13 village to grow with tremendous residential 14 growth, which is what is occurring here, and to 15 benefit the school districts and other public 16 improvements. 17 As it relates to the process, 18 we continue to work with the process and the park 19 district. 20 Our most recent discussion with 21 the park district is actually dedicating 4.4 22 acres of land to enhance the current Cannonball 23 park that exists there, so when you see the plan, 24 as we grow this plan, and as we complete this Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 95 1 plan, the improvements and -- that are being 2 asked for are already in the works. 3 It was asked what is the timing 4 of this project. We want to complete -- we want 5 to get through this project very quickly. We 6 want to get through this process very quickly. 7 It is our plan to break ground 8 this year. Our plan is to provide a developable 9 pad for our retailers by March 1st of '07. 10 As it relates to the type of 11 housing and who the housing will be developed by, 12 we will most likely go out to an RFP, we will -- 13 a request for proposal, to other housing 14 developers. 15 I can say one the Harlem Irving 16 Company itself is a recognized residential 17 developer, and should it come to that point, we 18 will develop it ourselves. 19 I think we have hit on most of 20 the other things. The other thing is 21 transitional zoning. When you really think about 22 it, look what we have done, creating a 50 -foot 23 buffer, not putting the back of the Target to 24 those residents, we put the -- we placed the Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 96 1 Target as far away with their back to Beecher for 2 a reason, because what we're doing is creating 3 that transition from that single- family home to 4 that large buffer to that berm to the smaller 5 outlot users to a ring road that's internal, and 6 then to the parking lot. 7 I believe our plan is well 8 thought out. And don't forget, there is also 9 going to be transitional zoning right here. I 10 just noticed a single- family home that was 11 currently knocked down along Cannonball Trail 12 within the last month that sat right here, so 13 what you're going to have here, you're also going 14 to have commercial zoning that abuts 15 single- family homes, and so what's going to 16 happen when you have a main commercial corridor 17 as you do with Veteran's, not Cannonball Trail, 18 is that there has to be some type of a conflict 19 and what we're trying to do here is minimize that 20 conflict as well as possible. 21 As I suggested in our first 22 meeting, Harlem Irving Company is a 50 -year old 23 company, and it's a 50 -year old company because 24 we currently -- we still own the first asset that i Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 97 1 we built. We own many assets through the 2 Chicagoland area. 3 We just went through one of the 4 greatest real estate growths in the history of 5 the United States, where cap rates caused most 6 developers to sell their assets. We sold none. I 7 We plan on being part of this 8 community for the next 50 years or more, and we 9 appreciate the community's concern, and, as you 10 can see, we are the type of developer that are 11 also going to be an integral part of this 12 community for the next 50 years, and we want to 13 be a good citizen and we want to be good 14 neighbors and we're going to go through this 15 process to create that. Thank you. 16 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Thank you. 17 Vern? 18 MR. WITTE: The only thing I'd like 19 to clarify again, no water would go to anywhere 20 but the Fox River? 21 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: We are going to 22 talk about that. 23 MR. WITTE: Okay. And the other one 24 is - Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 98 1 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Please. We're 2 going to talk about it. 3 Okay. At this time I would 4 entertain a motion to close the public hearing. 5 MS. LUCIETTO: So moved. 6 MR. JONES: So moved. Second. 7 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: It's been moved 8 and seconded. Further discussion? 9 (No Response) 10 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Hearing none, 11 those in favor signify by saying aye. 12 (A Chorus of Ayes) 13 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Motion passes. 14 (discussion had off 15 the record) 16 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: At this time 17 then I would accept a motion to go into public 18 hearing. 19 MR. KRAUPNER: So moved. 20 MS. LUCIETTO: Second. 21 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Moved and 22 seconded to go to public hearing. Any I 23 consideration on the motion? 24 (No response) i Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 99 1 MR. JONES: What motion? 2 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Motion to go to 3 public hearing. 4 MR. JONES: Sure, why not? 5 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Hearing none, 6 those in favor signify by saying aye. 7 (A Chorus of Ayes) 8 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Opposed? 9 (No Response) 10 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: We are now in 11 public hearing for PC 2005 -44, Donald E. Schramm 12 and Standard Bank & Trust as trustee under a 13 certain agreement dated 4- 01 -04, and known as 14 trust number 18130, petitioners, have filed an 15 application with the United City of Yorkville, 16 Kendall County, Illinois, requesting annexation 17 to the United City of Yorkville and rezoning from 18 Kendall County A -1 Agricultural to the United 19 City of Yorkville Planned Unit Development, 20 zoning to allow uses permitted in the commercial, 21 office and residential districts. 22 The real property consists of 23 approximately 182.25 acres at 9338 Bypass 30, 24 Bristol Township, Kendall County, Illinois. Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 100 1 And is there anybody from the 2 public that wishes to address the Commission? 3 We'll need to have you sworn in at this time. 4 (No Response) 5 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: If not, I guess 6 we'll just take staff comments. 7 MR. MILLER: Okay. 8 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Travis? 9 MR. MILLER: Do you want to refer to 10 July 7th? These are revised staff comments in 11 your packet. 12 General comments. This is a 13 unique situation in some sorts. At this point in 14 time, this is -- this particular situation or 15 this property owner was -- the city had actually 16 requested the property owner to annex to the City 17 of Yorkville. 18 The zoning appropriate for this 19 property is PUD, keeping in mind the new PUD 20 ordinance, based on the mix of uses recommended 21 by the Comprehensive Plan for the area, as well 22 as the plan that's been prepared by the 23 petitioner showing mixed uses. 24 The property consists of Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 101 1 approximately 175 acres. This includes the land 2 area between Rob Roy Creek and 47, which isn't 3 clear on the concept plan as submitted. I wanted 4 to make sure I highlighted that. 5 This property does go west of 6 Route 47 all the way to Rob Roy Creek, so if you 7 look at the aerial photo of the concept plan, you 8 can see the line of trees is Rob Roy Creek, the 9 property line and the zoning in the packet as 10 shows that description includes that. I wanted 11 to make sure that's clear. 12 The Comprehensive Plan 13 recommendations for the area is everything north 14 of the ComEd lines, which is basically just to 15 the south of the mid - portion of this property to 16 the south of what's proposed for commercial. 17 Everything to the north of that 18 line is recommended as commercial planned use in 19 the Comprehensive Plan and everything south of 20 those lines is recommended as transitional 21 neighborhood. You will recall a gross density of 22 three and a half units per acre. 23 The concept plan is 24 substantially consistent with the Comprehensive Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 102 1 Plan. We will point out that there is an error 2 on the concept plan. The total number of units 3 should read 506, not 810, that's listed on the 4 concept plan. 5 The density is also incorrect, 6 3.8 units per acre, with a unit count proposed, 7 the acreage amounts depicted -- with the acreage 8 amounts depicted on the concept plan, yield gross 9 density of 5.16 units per acre. That's ON the 10 high side multi - family condo. That's the 18 -acre 11 planned use that's recommended for the 12 multi - family condo use. 13 Keep in mind the Comprehensive 14 Plan is recommending all of that to be 15 commercial, so this is showing residential there, 16 but it is higher density. 17 The most intense zoning 18 classification is currently R -4. R -4 zoning does 19 permit eight units per acre. 20 At the time the city began 21 discussions with this property owner, the zoning 22 ordinance permitted 12 units per acre under the 23 R -4 zoning. 24 The proposed 18 -acre i Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 103 1 multi- family condo area is proposed with 16 units 2 per acre. I just wanted to point out the 3 increase that's being requested. 4 Stormwater management will be 5 managed or stormwater management will have an 6 off -site rain water facility, which is just south 7 of this - facility, and staff points out that this 8 does allow more development along the property, 9 would enable the property to sustain a higher 10 density. 11 And the last comment is 12 regarding the gas station, the two -acre portion 13 adjacent to Route 30 on the north of the concept 14 plan, pointing out a gas station is a special 15 use, and staff's recommendation is consistent 16 with previous recommendations. 17 The special use should not be 18 permitted as part of a concept PUD plan. In the I 19 event the gas station is proposed for the 20 property, a special use permit would require an 21 additional public hearing process. 22 This is a public hearing 23 process. This is part of what's being requested 24 with the petition, so that's up to you as the I Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 104 1 decision makers if you are comfortable with the 2 gas station there. 3 I just remind you that there 4 are specific criteria in the zoning ordinance. I 5 can go through this as you discuss this. 6 The staff's recommendation is 7 approve with the removal of the gas station at I 8 this time. 9 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. John, 10 some comments? 11 MR. WYETH: Yeah. I think it's I 12 important for me to weigh in on this one to 13 clarify what you may know from reading the 14 newspaper at least, that this is a portion of the 15 property that was subject to litigation between 16 the City and Village of Sugar Grove that resulted 17 in a Circuit Court opinion last month. That 18 opinion is currently on appeal. 19 When first presented -- and 20 this was almost before you last fall -- this 21 was -- a portion of the property would have come 22 before you and it was pulled off of your agenda 23 in order to pursue the answer to the question 24 does the boundary agreement with Sugar Grove i i Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 105 1 block the ability to annexation north of U.S. 2 Route 30. The Circuit Court said that it does. 3 So what you have before you now 4 is just that portion south of U.S. Route 30. 5 I'll reiterate what Mr. Miller said, that we have 6 this before us by request of the city. 7 Also to reiterate that the 8 importance of this is not only to get us up to 9 Route 30, but it is significant that this parcel 10 lies on both sides of Route 47, and in order to 11 conduct a road widening project, which is moving 12 along through staff level, it would be critical 13 that the city be able to have both sides of 14 Route 47 in order to widen. 15 MR. JONES: So I've got to ask this. 16 What kind of monkey wrench would it throw or 17 cloud up the situation if we wanted to annex the 18 other side, too, anyway? 19 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Could I suggest 20 that we end the public hearing at this point and 21 then we can -- 22 MR. JONES: Oh, okay. Sorry. 23 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: So is there any 24 other comments that wish to be made during the Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 106 1 public hearing? 2 MAYOR PROCHASKA: Well, if I may, 3 Mr. Chairman, and, again, a little history, 4 there's been discussion with property owners of 5 this property for several years, and one of the 6 reasons that we did look at approaching these 7 property owners and they were interested in 8 coming to us also was the fact that, number one, 9 with the utilities, if you are aware, just to the 10 south of this is the water tower that Yorkville 11 built that will service basically this whole 12 area, and the other issue, as Attorney Wyeth had 13 pointed out, was the fact that we are trying to 14 put together with the state a kind of unique 15 program for getting Route 47 widened from 16 Corneils to Baseline Road, and actually this 17 presented itself as we started those discussions 18 as it was remembered that not only was the west 19 side of? -- Or the east side of 47 not in the 20 city because we thought well, technically -- 21 John, and correct me if I am wrong, but when we 22 annexed, you annexed to the far side of the 23 right -of -way. 24 MR. WYETH: That's correct. Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 107 1 MAYOR PROCHASKA: So initially you 2 thought that would be fine because we had annexed 3 the piece on the west side, but then it was 4 remembered that that piece of property did not 5 touch the right -of -way, which meant that that 6 entire right -of -way of Route 47 above the Bristol 7 Bay subdivision was not in the city because the 8 property line did not actually touch the 9 right -of -way, so again, in order to facilitate 10 going forward with this project -- and we do 11 have, you know, some positive interest from some 12 of the developers up in that area to work with 13 us, we do need to make sure that -- you know, 14 that the City of Yorkville has control of both 15 sides of Route 47 up there. 16 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Okay. Any other 17 comments then for the public hearing? 18 (No Response) 19 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: If not, could I 20 have a motion to close the public hearing, 21 please? i 22 MS. LUCIETTO: So moved. 23 MR. JONES: Second. 24 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Moved and I Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 108 1 seconded to close the public hearing. Further 2 discussion? 3 (No Response) 4 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Hearing none, 5 those in favor signify by saying aye. 6 (A Chorus of Ayes) 7 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: Opposed? 8 (No response) 9 CHAIRMAN LINDBLOM: The public 10 hearing is now closed. 11 (Which were all the 12 proceedings had in 13 the public hearing.) 14 --- 000 - -- 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 Depo Court Reporting Service (630) 983 -0030 109 1 STATE OF ILLINOIS ) ss: 2 COUNTY OF LASALLE ) 3 4 CHRISTINE M.

There was a meeting of members of the Cannonball Trail Civic League and management persons of the Harlem - Irving Company on June 13, 2006. The development persons presented the plans that are being considered for rezoning of the City's Comprehensive Plan. No suggested deviations to the proposed plan by Cannonball neighbors were considered by the development company. This resulted in a unanimous decision by the Civic League to disapprove the development and rezoning plan. It is a much larger development than the Comprehensive Plan projects, and there are very few transition buffering elements to protect the Cannonball residents. Traffic congestion would be far too extreme for Cannonball Trail, and a police station is unwarranted as residents' values would be greatly affected. The Comprehensive Plan indicates a strip of commercial zoning on the Cooper property equal in depth to match the already zoned office and B -2 commercial zoning on the east side of Cannonball along Route 34. The balance of the Cooper property is shown in the Comprehensive Plan as residential which the residents adjacent to Cannonball Trail would support as long as it was developed in the same manner as the subdivision to the north of the Cooper property with added setbacks, berms and plantings along Cannonball Trail. The proposed Marketplace plan disregards any transitional "building" on the east side of the development along Cannonball Trail. The City has in the past used transitional zoning on other projects to soften the impact on residential property with good success, but the plan as presented allows for very little transition whatsoever. The proposed berming and landscaping is very inadequate and does not extend the full length of the Cannonball frontage of the proposed development. It should be noted that a renovated historic brick farmhouse on the Wadsworth property is located directly across Cannonball from the proposed police station. The farmhouse was once the home of Judge Joseph W. Helme who died in 1868 and who helped to organize Kendall County. It would seem that this historic home should be protected from losing value as a result of a commercial development. This home is an asset to Kendall County and Yorkville in particular. The proposed police station is out of place. The Kendall County Sheriff's station is nearby and would be a first responder to residents of the area. There are much better locations to serve all the people of Yorkville including the citizens on the south side of the City across the Fox River. A central location would serve much better rather than the proposed location on the northwest edge of the City. As mentioned previously, there is no question that nearby property owners would suffer a reduction in their long - standing property values with the police station as proposed in this development. Also, if the no -cost land for the police station is a trade -off to the City for the granting of the rezoning, then would it not make more sense to use the value of the land to buffer the shopping center and purchase a station site somewhere else utilizing the tax money that will be forthcoming to the city from the shopping center. Since the developers say that the main entrances to Kendall Marketplace are off Route 34 and the proposed Beecher Road extension, we feel that there should be no entrances to the Marketplace from Cannonball Trail. Widening Cannonball to accommodate more traffic would be far too destructive to the properties along Cannonball Trail. Too much land would have to be condemned in order to widen Cannonball Trail. The infrastructure should be in place for the Beecher Road entrance before the Marketplace would open. Lighting and store signs especially on the Cannonball Trail side would provide too much light pollution for all homes in the area. This could be solved if there were some transitional housing in the proposed development placed along Cannonball Trail. Even though the residents along the east side of Cannonball Trail and four on the west side of Cannonball Trail are not in the city limits, they are still very much a part of the community. They have been employed in the community (i.e. educating the youth), paid taxes to the schools, worked on school referenda, served i in various capacities in beneficial ways to help the community, as well as helping with elections. They have helped make this a desirable community. They have shopped in Yorkville and spent money for Yorkville professional services. They deserve to have the same consideration in the planning of what happens in Yorkville as any Yorkville citizen within the city limits. Yorkville must feel that same way since one member of the Yorkville Plan Commission lives outside of the city limits. This must have been designed to give voice to those outside the city limits. We feel our well established neighborhood should be able to maintain its value and quality of life and not be sacrificed for a commercial development when there are many other areas of Yorkville which are zoned already for commercial development that remain vacant even with infrastructure in place. If you have not already done so, please drive along Cannonball Trail between Route 34 and Route 47 and try to imagine the impact of a proposed road widening, the resulting destruction of trees and property; note the dangerous curves and hill which impairs the ability to' see oncoming cars. Try to imagine the destruction of many of Yorkville's fine assets, which include nearby natural areas with plentiful wildlife. Since this is the last major open property along Cannonball to be rezoned, it is hoped that the Commission will consider these many matters in their deliberations, and apply fair and equal logic with beneficial direction to the shopping center proposal as this Commission has carefully undertaken in the past. Thank you.
