(See Court Reporter's Transcript of Public Hearings)
(Petitioner's responses to Standards to be included in official record.
(Attorney Lamb noted a letter of opposition from an anonymous resident was also received.)
Discussion:
Ms. Mendez presented the background for the petition and said the petitioner is seeking a Special
Use authorization since the property is located in B Street Overlay District. She described the
building and the business operation. The building was constructed in the 1890's and was
formerly used as the county jail. Staff has found the business to be consistent with the B Street
zoning. She said this petition is scheduled for a final vote at City Council on September 22. Ms.
Mendez reiterated that a letter of opposition had been received from an anonymous person. Ms.
Noble added that the concerns mentioned in this letter will be addressed during the permit
process.
The standards and responses were read by Ms. Mendez. The Commissioners agreed with all the
standards, however, they did discuss #2 concerning “use and enjoyment of other property in the
vicinity”. Mr. Williams and Mr. Vinyard said they had concerns with the residential mix and
specifically for people living upstairs. Mr. Williams also said people work from home and made
note of possible noise, although other businesses could generate more traffic. They decided they
were in agreement with standard #2.
Action Item
Special Use
Chairman Vinyard entertained a motion to approve PZC 2026-09 Special Use. So moved by Mr.
Williams and seconded by Mr. Green. Motion: Mr. Williams read as follows: In consideration
of testimony presented during a Public Hearing on September 9, 2026 and discussion of the
findings of facts, the Planning and Zoning Commission recommends approval to the City Council
a request for Special Use authorization to operate a dog grooming business within the “B” Street
District within the Downtown Overlay District, for an approximately 0.23 acre parcel generally
located north of West Madison Street, east of South Main Street, south of West Van Emmon
Street and west of South Bridge Street (U.S. Route 47), commonly known as 111 W. Madison
Street – Unit F. Roll call: Linnane-yes, Vinyard-yes, Williams-yes, Crouch-yes, Green-yes.
Carried 5-0.

The Commission moved into Public Hearing #2. Chairman Vinyard reiterated the procedure for
taking testimony and swore in those who would speak. He read the description of Public Hearing
#2.
Public Hearing #2 opened at 7:22pm on a motion by Mr. Williams and second by Mr. Green.
Roll call: Vinyard-yes, Williams-yes, Crouch-yes, Green-yes, Linnane-yes. Carried 5-0.
2. PZC 2026-07 Cannabis Dispensary – Good Behavior, Kevin Bethyo, of Prairie Retail
Holdings, LLC, petitioner, has filed an application with the United City of Yorkville,
Kendall County, Illinois, requesting special use authorization for a cannabis dispensary
business within the B-3 General Business District for an approximately 0.93-acre parcel
generally located west of South Bridge Street (U.S. Route 47), south of Stagecoach Trail
(U.S. Route 71), and along Saravanos Drive.
At approximately 8:24pm, the Public Hearing was closed on a motion and second by Mr.
Williams and Ms. Linnane, respectively. Roll call: Williams-yes, Crouch-yes, Green-yes,
Linnane-yes,Vinyard-yes, Werderich-yes. Carried 6-0.
(See Court Reporter's Transcript)
(Standards to be included in public record)
Unfinished Business None
New Business:
2. PZC 2026-07 Cannabis Dispensary – Good Behavior (see full description in #2
above)
Since the petitioner had provided detailed information in the presentation, Ms. Mendez focused
on the Special Use considerations and the documents provided. She said staff recommends
approval of the dispensary, with no variances requested and notes the request is in conformance
with the ordinance. The final vote is expected to take place October 13 at City Council.
As noted by a Commissioner, the presentation was very comprehensive and they had no
questions for the petitioner. Ms. Mendez presented the standards and the Commissioners did
have some comments. Regarding standard #1 (public health/morals) Chairman Vinyard noted he
had received more feedback on the dispensary than on the data centers. He said morals entered
into this and he was divided and Mr. Crouch concurred. Mr. Werderich said the morals have
been decided with the city decision to allow a dispensary. He said the Commission should look at
the application and determine if it would be unreasonably detrimental to public health. He said
there was copious information provided on the security, location, etc. Based on the information
provided, he said the petitioner has fulfilled the requirements. Chairman Vinyard said the petition
was well-thought out and Ms. Linnane said all requirements have been met. Mr. Williams argued
this is better for the city from a health perspective, than not allowing a dispensary at all. It is here
to stay and persons will drive to another town to make a purchase. Cannabis is available in other
locations such as some gas stations and liquor stores. He said liquor purchases do not require as
much oversight as a cannabis purchase. He concluded that the city is allowing a dispensary and
the Commissioners must determine how to minimize the impact.
Regarding standard #2 (not injurious, impair property values), Mr. Williams said he does not
think the HOA in his neighborhood reached out to the citizens for the neighborhood meeting
mentioned by the petitioner. Mr. Werderich commented the dispensary would be in an area of
Page 4 of 4
town with no cannabis business, but in a business area and Mr. Crouch noted the location is
removed from any nearby housing. Mr. Williams said foot traffic is not highly probable at the
proposed location, so it favors an adult clientele. The Commissioners agreed with all the
remaining standards.
Action Item
Special Use
There was no further discussion and Chairman Vinyard entertained a motion to approve PZC
2026-07. So moved by Mr. Green and seconded by Mr. Williams. Motion: Mr. Williams read
the motion as follows: In consideration of testimony presented during a Public Hearing on
September 9, 2026 and discussion of the findings of facts, the Planning and Zoning Commission
recommends approval to the City Council a request for Special Use authorization to operate a
cannabis dispensary business within the B-3 General Business District for an approximately 0.93-
acre parcel generally located west of South Bridge Street (U.S. Route 47), south of Stagecoach
Trail (U.S. Route 71) and along Saravanos Drive subject to recommendations enumerated in
staff's memorandum dated August 5, 2026. Roll call: Crouch-yes, Green-yes, Linnane-yes,
Vinyard-no, Williams-yes, Werderich-yes. Carried 5-yes, 1-no.
Additional Business
1. Planning & Zoning Commission Meeting Schedule for 2027
Ms. Dim presented the 2027 meeting schedule and said the Commission would continue to meet
on the second Wednesday of the month at 7pm if approved. Motion to approve by Mr. Williams

speak during tonight's public hearing as a
petitioner or as a member of the public.
If you are here tonight to speak on
behalf of the K -9 to Life Dog Grooming, would you
please stand and repeat after me? If you would
like to speak tonight on that, we just have to
swear you in.
MS. LAMB: So whether you are a
petitioner, in opposition, or just want to give
comment specifically on the grooming facility,
you need to stand at this time to be sworn in.
CHAIRMAN VINYARD: Yep.
(Witness sworn.)
CHAIRMAN VINYARD: All right. Before we
begin I just want to review a few rules to ensure
an orderly and productive hearing. When
speaking, please make the comments focused on the
matter at hand. Avoid personal attacks and
unrelated topics, please, or repeating points
that have already been made.
As Chairman I may limit repetitive
remarks or redirect speakers to stay on topic.

be asked to leave the chambers.
We ask that audience members remain
silent during tonight's hearing unless they are
speaking at the podium. The court reporter must
record tonight's testimony and cooperation from
the audience will make her job easier and the
transcripts of those hearings more accurate.
Commission members may ask
clarifying questions at any time and the public
may direct relevant questions to the petitioner
either through myself or by a direct
cross-examination.
Likewise, a petitioner may respond
to public comments and ask clarifying questions
of public speakers.
Once all public comments have been
heard, I will formally close the public comment
period, after which the Commission will
deliberate and vote. Thank you for your
cooperation.
In the interests of time, we will
open up the first public hearing, take public
testimony and close the public hearing for PZC
member deliberation and vote.

MS. YOUNG: Thank you.
CHAIRMAN VINYARD: All right. To begin
the public hearing, PZC 2026-09, K -9 to Life Dog
Grooming, Miranda Munns, petitioner, is
requesting a special use authorization to operate
a dog grooming business within the B Street
Downtown Overlay District on an approximately
0 .23-acre parcel zoned B -1 Local Business
District addressed at 111 West Madison Street,
Unit F .
Is the petitioner present and
prepared to make its presentation on the request?
MR. MUNNS: Yes.
CHAIRMAN VINYARD: Please.
MARTIN MUNNS,
having been first duly sworn, testified before
the Yorkville Planning and Zoning Commission as
follows:
MR. MUNNS: All right. I will be brief
because everything was in the packet that I was
reading, but some of the -- I guess there was a
last minute letter sent in about some concerns.
I will just address those few as I have.

about a hundred thousand dollar total gross of
the business. That's , you know, kind of pie in
the sky future if every week is a solid, but at
five dogs a day, times 25 a week, five days a
week, that's 187 5 a week, times 52 weeks is
$97,000.
Will there be 25 every week? No.
There is probably not going to be any more than
25, there might be a few less each week depending
on the appointments.
They talk about -- something about a
smell outside, a sewer smell. I don't know if
they realize the sanitary district is right down
the block from this building, so I 've been over
there several times, I have never smelled
anything.
It's actually zoned in the -- the
special use was for the Overlay District. If it
was any other place, we wouldn't have had to do
this through here, but in the overlay dog
grooming was specifically mentioned as one of the
approved uses.
Less than one car an hour during the
day, plenty of parking, there is spots in front

than three cars out there, and the EDC committee
last Tuesday unanimously passed it to move it
forward to here.
So that's all the specifics I have.
If you have any questions, glad to answer them.
CHAIRMAN VINYARD: Any of the
Commissioners have any questions?
COMMISSIONER WILLIAMS: I do have one.
Is there another business operating out of that
location at this time, a salon perhaps?
MR. MUNNS: No, no. It's like
residential. That building used to have a hair
salon I guess, that would be -- is there a
business in the back maybe? No, the back of the
building is just the old jail, boarded up, locked
up. She can't get to it through her part of the
business.
COMMISSIONER WILLIAMS: Okay.
Understood.
CHAIRMAN VINYARD: Is that all you have
tonight?
MR. MUNNS: That's all I 've got.

That letter has been submitted to

use authorization for a cannabis dispensary
business within the B -3 General Business District
for an approximately 0 .93-acre parcel generally
located west of South Bridge Street, U .S . Route
47, south of Stagecoach Trail, U .S . Route 7 1 and
along Saravanos Drive.
Is the petitioner present and
prepared to make its presentation? Please.
ANDREW P . SCOTT,
having been first duly sworn, testified before
the Yorkville Planning and Zoning Commission as
follows:
MR. SCOTT: Good evening. For the
record, my name is Andrew Scott and I am here
with the Law Offices of Dykema Gossett and I am
here on behalf of the petitioner, Prairie Retail.
With me this evening is Kevin
Bethyo, principal and sole member of Prairie
Retail Holdings. Also Joe Pescolla, JCS
Architects, they are the project architect, and
Lynn Means, B LA, she is our project traffic
engineer.
As was pointed out just a minute
ago, the applicant is Prairie Retail Holdings and

it is making this application with the consent of
Potluck THC, LLC, which is the current license
holder, but Prairie Retail Holdings will be
acquiring that license assuming all approvals by
the City.
And also as noted, we did file an
application for an adult use cannabis dispensary
at 47 Saravanos. There may be a little bit of
inconsistency in the numbers because after we
filed our application we were actually assigned
7 2 Saravanos by the City, so sometimes I 'll maybe
use that number interchangeably, just don't want
folks to be confused. If we could go to the next
side, please.
So the site you see in front of you
is surrounded in yellow. As the Chair mentioned,
it's a 0 .93-acre commercial park -- I 'm sorry,
parcel at the northwest corner of Bridge and
Saravanos.
This is actually a platted
subdivision; the lots have already been divided.
The utilities are already in, it's -- actually
the site sets up really well because there is
already stormwater facilities in place, so it's a

very, very good site for development.
Sometimes the area is referred to --
and you've got the east/west street Stagecoach to
the north, but this is referred to as the
Stagecoach Crossing subdivision.
The property is zoned B -3 General
Business District and your Uniform Development
Ordinance does contemplate adult use and medical
use cannabis dispensaries as a special use in
that district, so it's a matter of you've got a
use that is allowed in the district, it's just
subject to a little bit higher level of scrutiny
because of the externality, some of the nature of
the use, so that's what we will be talking about
this evening.
The proposal before you is to
develop the site with a new approximately
2 ,000-square-foot single-story building with 33
off-street parking spaces, additional landscaping
and also other ancillary improvements. If we go
to the next slide, please.
So before we undertook this effort
and filed our application, we were very
intentional about where we sought to site this

particular facility.
We went back and we reviewed the
testimony from October, 2024 when the previous
petitioner was here, so we were very, very
thoughtful and we worked with staff and worked
with some of the other stakeholders to figure out
where in Yorkville is appropriate, so it meets
the standards for setbacks, buffers from certain
sensitive uses, and so that's how we landed on
this particular facility.
So if you consider it, we are
approximately a mile from Yorkville Middle
School, we are almost 800 feet from Fox Highlands
and almost 1 ,300 feet from Windett -- I 'm sorry,
Windett Ridge.
There is also a -- there is a
single-family home a little bit to the south, but
one of the things that's important to point out
is that along the east side of South Bridge, it's
densely wooded along there and so there is very,
very little visibility between that single-family
home that is proximate by about 350 feet, and
they are also set back -- I didn't measure it,
but I am going to guess maybe 6 0 , 80 feet from

the right-of-way. Go to the next slide, please.
And, again, just sort of talking a
little bit more about what we saw, what we heard
in the testimony and citizen concerns about a
dispensary, we did consider other uses.
So we are approximately seven miles
from the nearest dispensary, so it's not like
there is a lot of concentration of these
particular facilities.
We are almost a little bit more than
4 ,000 feet from the nearest day care. In
addition, we are over 3 ,000 feet from the closest
playground and 5 ,000 plus/minus feet from the
nearest church.
So, again, a lot of consideration
was taken into account in terms of where to
propose to locate this facility.
I had also mentioned how we had done
a lot of early outreach with staff. That was
also very important so that we got a lot of
understanding what the village -- I 'm sorry, what
the City was looking for and what staff's
thoughts were on this particular use even before
we filed the application, and this is sort of

typical of how Kevin runs and thinks about
running a facility.
We reached out to the police chief
to get the police chief's input, let him know
about our security protocols, let him know a
little bit more about the building and, again,
just to elicit any concerns that he might have
about a proposed dispensary at this location.
In addition to meeting with the
chief of police, we also -- we have reached out
to our immediate neighbors, including ABC Therapy
Clinic and also the Association for Individual
Development.
I think it probably made it into
your packet, but if not, we did get a letter of
support from A ID. We continued a dialogue with
ABC Therapy Clinic, but as far as we can tell,
they decided to stay neutral in the proposal, and
so that was that engagement there. If you could
go to the next slide, please.
And so in addition to those efforts,
we also held a -- if you call it a virtual
meeting, we set up a virtual meeting with Windett
Ridge Homeowner's Association working through

their property manager. That was on August 27th,
2026, so probably just about ten days ago. There
were no attendees.
We also offered to meet with the Fox
Highlands' Homeowner's Association, again,
working through their property manager, and they
declined to -- they declined a meeting.
And then, finally, in addition to
all of that outreach, in addition to reaching out
to our neighbors, we did a certified mailing to
16 additional single-family homes that are
proximate to the proposed facility, sent it
certified mail.
I got one response from a neighbor
who expressed concern about a dispensary in the
City; other than that, I didn't get anything back
from the certified mailing to neighbors. If you
could go to the next slide, please.
So this is the site as you can see
overlaid on -- it's an aerial view. The
application is branded as Good Behavior, as was
discussed earlier or mentioned earlier.
As you can see, a little bit north
of the site there is actually a shared drive

aisle between this property and the building to
the north, so that helps a lot actually with
promoting safe and efficient traffic flow in and
out of the facility, it cuts down on curb cuts,
and, again, kind of minimizes traffic impacts to
the surrounding area where you consolidate curb
cuts in a single location.
As you can see, a little bit light,
but we actually have 33 parking stalls there.
According to the Uniform Development Ordinance,
six parking spaces are required, so we are well
parked. It's actually probably more than we
need, but it's one of those things where we
wanted to be a little bit more certain about
having sufficient parking, but, again, well in
excess of what's required.
In terms of the landscaping, it will
be all in conformity with your zoning code.
We've got a brick and stone base of the building
which exceeds the minimum requirements for the
materials on the building itself.
The building height is just under
32 feet, which is less than the maximum. The
signage is very, very simple. It's going to be

tastefully front-lit. It's fully in compliance
with the Uniform Development Ordinance. It's
actually only 80 square feet, where I believe we
can have up to a maximum of 131 square feet.
So, again, you know, just a lot less
than would otherwise be permitted to -- yeah,
would otherwise be permitted. It's going to be a
single sign that will be facing west. You will
see it in a minute when I show you the
elevations, but just a single sign, not asking
for any relief there.
And then, finally, just in terms
of -- yeah, you went to the landscape plan.
Again, in compliance, we've had your outside
landscape consultant review our proposed
landscape plan.
Initially he did point out a couple
of shortcomings, we fixed all of those. We have
actually been responsive to all of your outside
consultants' comments to our plan.
One of the things that we were
unable to remedy is on that shared property line
right there under your code we are required to
have landscaping, but obviously that doesn't work

in a shared drive aisle, so that's the only sort
of area for relief, and it was recognized by your
landscape consultant, that it was not feasible to
put landscaping there.
And just in terms of the appearance
of the building, again, this is a very, very
clean, simple building, there is not going to
be -- you know, there is not going to be, you
know, special lighting, there is not going to be
any cannabis symbols, nothing like that.
It's a very, very -- you know, very
low-key, blends into the area very, very well,
and, again, we will get to the elevations in just
a moment.
I had mentioned before, and I know
this was a point of concern in 2024, other than
the landscaping that I referenced, we are fully
compliant with all of your code requirements in
terms of this facility.
In fact, we exceed a lot of your
setbacks, we exceed your parking, our signage is
a lot smaller, so, again, just being very, very
mindful of the concerns that were raised a couple
years ago and we incorporated them into this and

hopefully make it an attractive proposal for the
City.
If we are able to get all the
necessary approvals that we need, the goal is to
pull permits as soon as we can and ideally be
able to be open sometime in mid-2027. If we
could go to the next slide, please. Let's go
after that. Okay.
So here is the -- here are the black
line elevations, we will get some color
renderings in just a moment, but in the top left
corner what you see is the west elevation and,
again, you see the single wall sign, Good
Behavior Cannabis Dispensary, you see on the kind
of lower half, kind of the shaded-in areas,
that's the masonry and stone materials that,
again, as I had mentioned, exceed your code
requirements. If we go to the next slide,
please.
So for those of you that are not
familiar with a dispensary, it basically breaks
out into three areas.
The first area that I will talk
about is called reception and, again, the plan

south of the parking field, that's the front of
the building, the west side, and so where the
cursor is right now, that is the entrance to the
reception area, that's known as the public access
area and area you will be greeted by an employee
of the company.
The ID will be checked, it will be
scanned. And this is not just a simple sort of
look at the ID, does the person match up, this is
actually it gets scanned, it is tied into a --
it's tied into a state database or a federal
database.
You can use a state ID, use a
license from any state, and it's going to tie
into any secretary of state's office, or you can
use your passport and it will tie into the state
department.
And again, it's -- there -- you
can't get in here with a fake ID because of this
tie-in to the government systems, so either
they're going to scan your ID and it's either
going to show green, which means you passed and
it syncs up with another system, or it's going to
turn red, meaning the person is underage or it's

not recognized by a government facility.
Then once you get ID'd and checked
in by the reception person, you move into the
limited access area, and that is the area where
the cursor is now. That is kind of the retail
floor point of sale.
We have I believe it's six to
eight points of sale registers at that particular
location. The -- and I will talk a little bit
more about operations in a bit, but I just wanted
to familiarize you with how the site plan lays
out.
And then, you know, beyond that,
beyond the point of sale you've got the
restricted access area, which is to the rear,
that's where the vault is, that's where the
employee break room is, and so, again, you are
divided up into three different kind of zones I
will say of the facility.
The public is not allowed back into
the restricted access area at all. In fact, only
limited employees are permitted back in that
area, and it's done by a key fob system and so
they are able to track it very, very closely, who

is a permitted -- who is permitted to access the
restricted area and who is not.
Just in terms of general operations
of the facility, they will have anywhere from 25
to 35 full-time employees, some -- some employees
are part-time, some are full-time. It really
just depends on seasonal hiring trends, things of
that nature, but, again, 25 to 35 full-time
employees.
The employment kind of breaks down
into four categories; you've got a general
manager, you've got an assistant manager, you've
got retail assistants, and then -- so that's kind
of the breakdown of the different employees.
For every employee -- and this is a
critical part for every dispensary that Kevin and
his team I think go above and beyond, there is
extensive training and ongoing training
throughout employment to make sure not only do
they know about matters such as, you know, sort
of the initial training, you know, health and
safety consideration with cannabis use, what the
purchase limits are, proper dosing, acceptable
forms of ID, how to deal with customers, also in

instances where there needs to be de-escalation,
rare instances, but, again, so that they are
trained in that, inventory tracking, inventory
best practices, security requirements in the
system.
In fact, the training that they are
going to go through exceeds the state standards,
but, again, it's really, really important to have
a highly trained, high quality staff to be able
to give customers the best possible service that
they can at the same time and also just to be
able to run a top notch facility.
If you are interested in sort of
seeing more of the details around the training,
we did provide a rather extensive discussion
around the training, it's in our project
narrative, you can talk about sort of -- talks
about all the different areas that we'll cover.
So, again, there is training when
you first start, but it's also every year there
is going to be updated training on what best
practices are, refresher training, so, again,
you've got a really, really quality staff
operating that facility.

During a typical shift it really
varies; it's eight to ten on the low end, 12 to
15 on kind of busier days, Thursday, Friday,
Saturday, Sunday.
In terms of the products that are
available, it will include the full gamut. It
includes flower, raw buds, pre-rolls, vapes,
concentrates such as wax, shatter and sugar,
they've got edibles, gummies, chocolates, drinks
topicals.
One thing that's very, very
important to note, no food sales here at all, no
consumption on premises, we'll talk about that in
a minute, and, you know, the only food products
are the infused products that I talked about, the
drinks and also the edibles, but, again no
consumption on premises.
Really the only place that you can
consume them is in your home, but not on the
premises, not on the facility, and perhaps it
goes without saying, no sale of alcohol
whatsoever.
So, again, going back a little bit,
I had talked about the products, just in services

that are provided to customers. One of the
things that is really important, because there
are -- there is such a vast array of products out
there, because you've got different customers
coming in with different experience levels with
cannabis, they are well trained and well versed
in the differences between the product types, the
effects of the different products and the
different s trains within the flower, they've
got -- you know, they can provide usage
guidelines to prevent over-consumption.
Again, you know a lot of the
customers are experienced in this area, but for
those that are not, it's really important that
they understand the different products and the
dosing so that they have an enjoyable experience.
There is also medical patient
consulting available. They also talk about
proper storage, legal restrictions such as public
consumption, and they also talk to customers
about the purchase limits.
In terms of hours of operation, your
city code establishes hours of operation for
cannabis dispensaries and we are matching that to

the minute, 10:00 a .m . to 8 :00 p .m . Monday
through Saturday, 12:00 p .m . to 5 :00 p .m . on
Sundays, again, all in accordance with your City
ordinance.
In terms of inventory, all of it's
kept in a safe which I will talk about in a
little bit, but all of the inventory is kept in
the safe and it is tracked in what's known as the
seed-to-sale system, meaning from the initial
seed to the final product and every where in
between there are bar codes associated with that
product, and so at any time the Illinois State
Police, the operator, Kevin, and his team, are
able to know what products are in the facility,
where it came from, who the grow facility was, so
there is very, very detailed tracking to follow
products from seed to sale.
It also includes -- yeah, there is
just -- again, it's interesting just the amount
of detail that you can see just in terms of the
date that it was sold, the date that it was
received by the dispensary, the license number
for the distributor, a lot, a lot of detail.
In terms of tracking product, there

is daily inventory counts that they undertake,
and at all times this information is available to
state regulators.
Illinois is one of the most highly
regulated cannabis states that have opted in, and
so the state at all times is able to track, along
with the operator of the facilities.
In terms of the -- in terms of
deliveries, there is a dedicated loading area.
Can we go to the next slide please? Back a
slide, please? One more. One more. One more.
Sorry. One more.
So you can -- yes, okay. So in the
northeast corner there is a trash -- enclosed
trash facility and also a dedicated loading area
back there.
Basically what you see for
deliveries are panel vans, it's not like it's a
large truck, so it's just a typical van that you
would see on the street.
It comes probably once, twice, three
times a week at random times, so there is no
security risk involved there, but, again, one or
two delivery trucks that are random timed.

The deliveries are monitored. We
will talk a little bit more about the security
systems that follows around, but there are
cameras that basically give a 3 6 0 view of the
entire premises, the parking lot, the rear,
everything. It's all visible and monitored.
Again, there is a door in the rear
of the building. It's actually a man trap so
that you can't have both doors open at the same
time, so the deliveries will come in, that door
will close for safety purposes, and then once
that exterior door is closed, the interior door
can be opened and you can unload the facility --
you can unload the product and it goes directly
into the vault, again, where it's tracked for
inventory.
Sometimes questions come up about,
you know, what happens with, you know, waste
management, what do you do with maybe product
that has gone beyond its shelf life or for some
reason been recalled by one of the grow
facilities.
There are extensive rules and
regulations about what needs to be done. Again,

all of the product is tracked one way or another
if it's disposed of or not, but essentially it
will be ground up with some inert materials.
Sometimes it's cat litter, sometimes it's potting
soil, other types of products, again, to just
render it inert, and then it will be thrown out
at the trash facilities, which is a locked,
enclosed area, until it's ultimately picked up.
Going just to, again, talking about
operations, it really -- I liken this to kind of
a convenient store, just the speed with which
customers come in and out.
What's a little bit different is on
average 75 percent of customers will preorder
online, so they have got the app on their phone,
they've got a computer.
They will preorder, the order will
be filled, you know, 25 percent of folks will
come in, and in the -- in the sales floor there
are kiosks very, very similar to a fast food
restaurant where you can also order product.
Again, you've got employees that can
assist with providing guidance on the different
products, different doses, that type of thing,

but, again, a lot of these are preorders, so
people are in and out. Average transaction time
is about five minutes.
I actually stood outside a
dispensary earlier and, you know, people were in
and out literally in two or three minutes, so
it's a really, really kind of quick turnover, not
people loitering in the, you know, parking lot
hanging around, they are in and out just like any
other retail transaction.
Just in terms of surrounding
businesses, we had talked about who was nearby.
I think the thing that is important, our hours
are very similar to, probably less than,
surrounding businesses.
You know, we've got the two
facilities that I had mentioned, but there is
also a banquet facility nearby right down the
street, there is a Shell station that probably
is -- I don't know the hours, but, again, very,
very compatible in terms of hours of operation
with nearby businesses.
I had mentioned before more than
enough parking. We're not going to have people

backing up onto other properties, people aren't
going to be out in the street blocking the
right-of-way or anything, so, you know, no
negative impacts there.
I had talked before, you know, our
signage, just one wall sign and it's internally
lit. We are going to have low lighting, but
nothing that's going to be bright, just enough to
provide adequate security in the parking lot.
Question comes up sometimes about
what about the smell, and in point of fact, all
product is -- in Illinois must be in sealed
product -- or sealed packaging.
I guess, you know, people always
think of they see these pictures of, you know,
Denver, Colorado or Los Angeles, California,
you've got this big glass jar of flower and
somebody with chopsticks and sort of loading --
you know, loading it into a bag.
It doesn't happen like that in
Illinois. It's strictly against the law.
Everything is in a sealed product. No odors, but
they also do have a very sophisticated HVAC
system, change out the filters consistently, so

there aren't going to be any odors that are going
to -- nobody is going to know from the smell that
there is a cannabis dispensary nearby.
As I mentioned, we have our traffic
engineer with us, but we did undertake a traffic
trial study, just a trip generation analysis,
make sure everything checked out.
We are pretty comfortable with our
numbers and that we know that we are very, very
low impact, but we had a professional come in.
She did the analysis, and her
conclusion was that this was -- it's a low
intensity of retail use and there aren't going to
be any material impacts on the surrounding
roadways, that there is sufficient and -- you
know, sufficient parking and access, which we
have talked about, and, in fact, the City's
engineering consultant had reviewed the analysis
and he agreed, found that our trip generation
analysis and our traffic analysis was acceptable.
Just in terms of operational
prohibitions, touched on this a little bit
before, absolutely nobody under 2 1 , can't be in
the store, can't be on the premises at all, and

that's something we take very, very seriously.
I have no -- you know, you can't
have kids hanging out outside, so, again,
absolute prohibition about anybody under 2 1 .
We've got signage I had mentioned
before about no consumption on premises, but
there is actually signage on the interior of the
facility that points that out.
Loitering, that's another concern
that comes up quite a bit. Again, it's something
we have zero tolerance for. The person out
front, the person at reception, part of their
scope of duties is to monitor sort of the front
and the parking lot and every once in awhile do a
walk around the facility just to make sure that,
you know, there is nobody hanging out, nobody
consuming on premises, whatever they might not --
should not be doing.
There is also -- I had mentioned
you've got 3 6 0 visibility around the facility, so
you also have employees in the back that have
visibility into those cameras and can also see
into the parking lots to make sure nobody is
loitering or sort of engaging in any illicit

activities.
I had mentioned before how we have
in Illinois some of the most stringent
regulations. These facilities are subject to
quarterly Illinois Department of Financial and
Professional Regulation inspections.
I had mentioned before, tied into
the Illinois State Police, who has access to all
the video, there are random inspections by the
Illinois State Police and so, again, highly,
highly regulated.
Just finally I will talk a little
bit about the security features. I have
mentioned the cameras. There was the key fob
access that I had talked about that limits
access, limits flow of employees among the
facility.
The cameras, just to touch on that a
little bit, they are high resolution cameras,
they provide a really, really clear image of the
parking lot.
They are actually -- those images
are stored for 90 days. One of the things that
we had heard actually from some of our community

engagement was that there was concern about
loitering, maybe not, you know, next door, and so
one of the things that these cameras help to do,
it's a hardened facility and, you know, if you
know you are on camera, you are really a lot less
likely to engage in any kind of illicit
activities or loitering of that nature, and so we
found that, you know, the cameras on these
facilities can actually be a very strong
deterrent for crime, and sort of interestingly
enough I 've got another client that's actually
helped local law enforcement with crimes that
have not occurred on the premises, but actually
they were car break-ins, and so they were able to
turn over the video to the local police and
assist with the investigation.
Throughout the facility there are
motion detectors, glass break sensors, there are
duress alarms sprinkled throughout in case those
issues come up.
I had mentioned before the vault
meets federal DEA standards, and that's where all
the product and cash is stored, and, again, just
continual monitoring of the exterior of the

premises really helps with ensuring that it's
a -- you know, it's a safe facility and that it's
not going to be kind of a source of crime.
Could we go a couple -- okay. So
that's the -- those are the renderings, kind of
gives you the sense of what it's going to look
like, and just to take you through what the
interior looks like a little bit, if you go to
the next slide.
So, yeah, so that's the greeter that
I had mentioned before scanning in, checking in
IDs . Again, these are very simple, very clean
facilities, nice, high quality products. Go to
the next slide.
Again, seeing a sales floor, point
of sale in the back, nice, well-lit, nice retail
setup. Go to the next slide.
This is just a view to the interior
of the vault. You are not allowed in there, but
to give you a sense of how the product is stored.
And just to kind of sum up, that's
the facility itself. I think that, you know, one
of the things that we have seen -- go to the next
slide, just the end.

You know, one of the things we've
seen I had mentioned before that, you know,
dispensary, the closest one is about seven miles
away, so this is really kind of a convenience
factor if folks in the immediate area are able to
come to this facility.
There is a lot of employment
opportunities, this is a burgeoning industry,
there is a lot of upward mobility not only in the
retail setting, but also in the grow setting.
Just in terms of tax impacts, I
mean, you can see sort of how statewide,
exceptional sales, two billion dollars annually
in 2024. In terms of sales taxes, what that
could mean to the City, you know, it's -- it's
conservatively $240,000 a year.
One of the things that's interesting
about dispensaries is that they don't have a
great demand for city services, they don't call
on the police, there is not very much -- you
know, there are not calls for EMTs, so they are a
big tax generator and I am going to say tax base
diversification and they don't demand a whole lot
of city services, so it's kind of a win for --

win for the municipalities where they go.
So I don't know if I am going to
steal staff's thunder because she went through I
heard on the last matter, I can kind of sum up
how I think we hit all the special use standards
or I can leave it to Sara to do it.
MS. MENDEZ: If you would like to, yeah.
MR. SCOTT: Okay. So I will go really
quickly. If I miss anything, just let me know.
But so just again, we have talked
about how the dispensary, it's got, you know,
great separation from the sensitive uses that are
listed in your ordinances, residences and also
schools, but we are a great distances from parks,
from nursery schools, from churches.
We talked about the well-trained
staff, minimal traffic impact, state-of-the-art
security system and how all of those will
actually promote public health, safety and
welfare.
We talked a little bit about
compatibility with the other uses in the area,
really very, very few, if any, negative
externalities, noise, odors. Nothing like that.

Traffic is de minimis. Hours of
operation consistent, if not less than, other
businesses in the area.
And again, you've got the
significant buffer, not only distance-wise, but
also because of all the vegetation that you have
and, you know, saying even in the wintertime,
given the amount of vegetation that is located on
the east side of South Bridge, you're still not
going to see visibility from a residential area.
Just in terms of orderly development
in the area, we talked about how this is already
applied a lot. All the utilities are there,
sewer's there, water's there, stormwater already
on site.
It's not going to have any adverse
impacts on any other development. This is
pretty -- kind of -- I think this is maybe the
last lot in the subdivision for development, but
it's certainly not going to have an adverse
impact on the orderly development or any future
development in the area.
We also talked about the shared
access, which minimize curb cuts, which cuts down

on potential traffic conflicts, and also it's an
area with -- already with a strong commercial
use, and this is really nothing more than it's a
retail use, it just happens to be cannabis.
In terms of the, you know, traffic,
we talked about a little bit -- or I have
actually said it a number of times, you know,
very little increase in traffic, negligible
impact on the surrounding rights-of-way, you've
got the single access drive shared with the
property to the north to minimize conflicts, and
then in just in terms of the comp plan, it does
designate it for commercial uses , which this is.
It serves the comp plan's goal of
land use diversification and also strengthens the
City's tax base in what is already a very
well-established commercial area.
So that's a kind of sum-up in what I
talked about in terms of how we meet the
standards, but we are available to answer any
questions that you may have.

of bringing businesses into the town that the
residents desire.
Cannabis is legal in Illinois and in
many other communities. I believe that allowing
Prairie Retail Holdings to build their shop Good
Behavior would be wanted by current residents.
If the shop is built here, Yorkville
should benefit from the additional tax revenue as
well as give the city greater control over when
and where the sales occur.
Knowing that the cannabis business
is here to stay, I would like to see Prairie
Retail Holdings given the opportunity to safely,
legally and properly build their site here in
Yorkville.
Thank you.

called Good Behavior.

say that I think it's only fair that a legal
business that is following City ordinances would
be able to open in our town, and as long as our
laws and our state and town have a dispensary
that's operating and abiding by that and we are
holding them accountable, that it should be a
decision that is easy to make that we are in
support of the dispensary.
CHAIRMAN VINYARD: Very good. Thank
you. Anybody else wish to speak?

Krempski, I am a resident of Yorkville 30 years.
Over the past month I was able to email the
aldermen with some of my concerns about Good
Behavior, and I don't have access to your
emails -- this information would be better via
email, but I am going to summarize it for you the
best I can tonight.
My objections fall into three main
categories; the first is please remember what the
public has already told this Commission.
I want to talk about the public
record from the October 9 th, 2024 hearing
concerning Consume Cannabis. Yorkville residents
and members of the Parkview Christian Academy
community filled this room with opposition to
that proposal. Not one member of the public
testified in favor of it.
13 witnesses gave sworn testimony
opposing the proposal or raising serious concerns
about its effects on Yorkville, and I want to
remind you of what was actually said that night
because I think there is a danger now of
remembering that hearing as primarily an argument
about the dispensary being too close to Parkview,

but that was not what was stated that even.
Francis Klaas specifically said he
opposed the proposal, not only because it was
near a school, but because it was in his words in
Yorkville at all. He urged the City to make
Yorkville so uninviting to dispensaries that none
would ever locate here.
Dave Young spoke from personal
experience working next to a dispensary. He
described crime, vagrancy, theft, marijuana use
in vehicles and other problems he personally
witnessed, and he specifically said his
opposition was, quote, not only for the variance,
but in Yorkville.
Mark Van Denend said his primary
objection was not proximity to Parkview, his
objection was, quote, the recreational sale of
marijuana for any purpose. He pointed out that
surrounding communities already had dispensaries
and asked Yorkville to stay off that list.
Corin Young raised concerns about
addiction, mental health, crime, homelessness,
high potency cannabis products, and the broader
direction of the community, and she asked a very

simple question, is this who we are as a
community?
Even the audience made the
distinction clear when Chairman Vinyard suggested
that the Parkview location was the main issue,
the audience responded no, no. When asked again,
they again answered no.
Dr. Ray Epperson talked about the
message being sent to Yorkville children and
families who would regularly drive past signs
advertising Consume Cannabis. His conclusion was
simple: I don't think it's good for Yorkville.
And now the proposed dispensary is
called Good Behavior. I actually think that
raises an additional concern. We would now be
putting a positive moral label on the
recreational sale of marijuana.
Words matter, branding matters, what
a community normalizes matters.
Mike Krempski asked the Commission
to recognize the significance of a room filled
with residents who believed this business
threatened their community.
He also raised concerns that

dispensary security requirements and secondary
effects could put additional demands on the
Yorkville Police Department and divert resources
from other needs.
Mike Krkljus raised concerns about
marijuana outdoors and whether those odors could
themselves become another form of advertising.
Colleen Murphy reminded the
Commission that Yorkville has exercised its
authority before to exclude businesses that
officials believe could harm the character or the
safety of the community. She also raised
concerns about illegal cannabis sales to children
and contaminated illicit products.
And d uring my own testimony I
challenged the assumption that Yorkville has to
welcome every possible source of tax revenue. A
different applicant, a different parcel, a
different business name do not erase that public
record. The City cannot honestly reduce the 2024
hearing to a disagreement over one parcel or one
setback.
For many of the people who came
before you, the question was whether Yorkville

should have recreational cannabis dispensaries at
all. I am asking you to remember that when you
make your recommendation tonight.
My second point, legal does not mean
Yorkville has to approve it. The question before
you is not simply whether recreational cannabis
is legal in Illinois, it obviously is, the
question is whether you should use its
discretionary governmental authority to allow
this particular special use.
There is a very important difference
between something being legal and something being
beneficial, wise, worthy of governmental
approval.
Illinois law recognizes that
distinction. Section 11-13-1 of the Illinois
Municipal Code says zoning authority exists to
promote public health, safety, comfort, morals
and welfare, and the Cannabis Regulation and Tax
Act itself at 410 ILCS 7 0 5 /55 to 25, specifically
gives local governments authority over cannabis
businesses. It even expressly says a local
government may prohibit or significantly limit
cannabis dispensaries.

So nobody can truthfully say that
because Illinois legalized recreational cannabis,
Yorkville is somehow obligated to approve a
dispensary.
You are being asked for a special
use recommendation precisely because this is not
being treated like an ordinary retail use.
City planning creates more than a
physical environment. Decisions about
development also affect what a community
accommodates, encourages, normalizes and
eventually becomes. Every approval plants
something.
A grocery store, restaurant, medical
office or family business provides goods and
services that can strengthen ordinary community
life.
A recreational marijuana dispensary
makes money when people purchase and consume more
marijuana, that's simply the economic model.
Calling it Good Behavior does not
change what is being sold, and these decisions
can outlast every person sitting in this room.
Once established, businesses affect surrounding

development. They create expectations for future
applicants, they normalize particular activities,
and once government begins receiving tax revenue
from an activity, that activity itself can become
something government is reluctant to give up, and
that is why I do not think the proper question is
simply how much money might this bring to
Yorkville, I think the question should be what
are we planting, who might be harmed, what are we
normalizing, and what kind of city are we helping
to create.
My objection is also not based on
the belief that every use of cannabis is
inherently wrong; I support the medicinal use of
plants and herbs when used responsibly.
There is a very big difference
between carefully using a plant-derived substance
for a legitimate medical purpose and creating a
commercial, recreational industry whose
profitability depends on increasing consumption.
My concern is with abuse and with
the commercialization and normalization of
recreational cannabis when the evidence
increasingly points to measurable harm, which

brings me to my third and final point.
There is actual research behind
these concerns. I know you don't have time
before this to open up four studies and start
reading medical journals, so I am going to try to
summarize these for you and give you the
important part of each one and why -- explain why
it matters to the decision that you are going to
be making tonight.
The first one is probably the most
directly relevant; it was published in the Annals
of Internal Medicine. It examined 10,5 74
neighborhoods containing more than 6 .1 million
people.
Researchers tracked what happened
when a cannabis retail store opened within 1 ,000
meters of a neighborhood and compared those
neighborhoods with matched neighborhoods that
remained unexposed to retail store.
The neighborhoods exposed to
cannabis stores experienced a 12 percent higher
relative monthly rate of cannabis-attributable
emergency room visits compared with the matched
unexposed neighborhoods. That's 12 percent

increase in emergency room visits.
The researchers also found that
evidence of greater numbers of stores within that
radius were associated with greater increases in
harm, and their conclusion is directly relevant
to local government.
Restrictions on the number of
cannabis stores, their concentration or the area
in which they are permitted may offer public
health benefits. That deserves your attention
because this study specifically looked at retail
store exposure and measurable health outcomes.
The second study deals with
cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome, sometimes
called C H S or scromiting. It involves recurrent
episodes of severe nausea, vomiting, abdominal
pain associated with cannabis use.
The peer reviewed study included
1 ,1 34 respondents with subjects suspected or
diagnosed with C H S ; 96.5 percent used cannabis at
least daily, about 45 percent were using it six
or more times per day around the time their
symptoms developed, and 61.9 percent reported
obtaining their cannabis from licensed

dispensaries.
Researchers also found that the use
of vape cartridges were associated with a shorter
period before the development of C H S symptoms.
I think the licensed dispensary
finding is especially important here. State
regulation and lawful retail sale do not
eliminate the health consequences of the product.
A regulated cannabis market remains
a market for a psychoactive substance capable of
producing serious, adverse health effects.
The third piece of research concerns
cardiovascular risk. The American College of
Cardiology reported findings from research
involving more than 4 .6 million people under age
50 who did not have significant cardiovascular
disease at the outset.
Cannabis users experienced
substantially greater risks of serious
cardiovascular events, including heart attack,
ischemic stroke and heart failure.
A separate meta analysis discussed
by the American College of Cardiology found that
active cannabis users had approximately a

50 percent greater likelihood of suffering a
heart attack than non-users.
That's particularly important
because cannabis is often perceived as relatively
harmless, especially among younger adults.
The developing cardiovascular
research presents a very different picture and
gives you another legitimate reason to consider
the consequences of further normalizing and
expanding access to the product.
And, finally, there is a 2025 study
published in JAMA Network Open involving more
than 106,000 adolescents. Researchers compared
Canadian provinces that permitted cannabis
edibles and extracts to Quebec, which maintained
greater restrictions on those products.
They found that legalization of
those products was associated with a 26 percent
increase in overall adolescent cannabis use, a
43 percent increase in edible cannabis use, a
34 percent increase in cannabis smoking, and a
28 percent increase in combined cannabis and
alcohol use.
They also found a decline in

adolescent perception of harm from occasional
cannabis use. I want to be clear about why that
matters here.
I am not saying that Good Behavior
is going to illegally sell marijuana to children,
that's not my point. The concern is broader.
The commercialization and normalization of
cannabis do not occur in isolation from the
culture in which young people form their
perceptions about the substance.
Young people see what adults
legalize, advertise, commercialize, normalize and
place in their communities.
Research showing both increased
youth use and reduced perception of harm deserves
serious consideration when local officials decide
whether cannabis retail establishments are
desirable.
Taken together, these studies tell a
much larger study, the first examined retail
availability itself and finds an association
between neighborhood exposure to cannabis stores
and cannabis related emergency room visits.
The second documents an increasingly

recognized syndrome involving severe recurrent
vomiting among frequent cannabis users, the third
adds evidence of potentially serious
cardiovascular consequences, and the fourth
raises concerns about youth use and declining
perceptions of cannabis related harm.
These are not abstract philosophical
objections; these are emergency room visits,
serious illness, cardiovascular events,
adolescent behavior, addiction concerns and
healthcare utilization.
I am asking you to put all of that
beside the testimony that Yorkville residents
already gave to you in 2024. The public already
told the Commission that its concern extended
beyond one school, one setback and one parcel.
Illinois law leaves room for local
judgment, and current research gives you
legitimate reasons to exercise that judgment
cautiously.
You do not have to conclude tonight
that cannabis should be illegal, you do not have
to conclude that nobody should ever use a
cannabis-derived product; you only have to decide

whether establishing a recreational cannabis
retailer is something that you believe will
promote the health, the safety, the welfare and
the long-term character of Yorkville.
I don't believe that it will.

heard and I hear quite frequently is
normalization, and I think what you have is a
situation where without a regulated cannabis
dispensary, cannabis is already here in
Yorkville, it's probably been here for 50,
60 years.
I actually had an interesting study
on the way to City Hall today. I stopped at the
Quick Mart, stopped at the Shell, I stopped at
the BP. You know what they all sell?
Unregulated T H C -infused drinks. The stuff is
already here.
I went by one of your liquor stores,
I forget the name of it, but it was selling the
Delta 8 product.
So you have all these unregulated
products that are already out there, and I think
that it is a strong preference to have a highly
regulated facility, Illinois State Police,
Illinois Department of Financial and Professional
Regulation that are overseeing all the products
here, and also where you have an opportunity to
go in and you've got these highly trained --
highly trained employees that -- she had

mentioned all these different terrible things
that are happening, people going to emergency
rooms, but one of the upsides of having a
regulated dispensary in your municipality -- and,
by the way, there's already been a legislative
decision that has been made to allow one
dispensary here, that was made by the City
Council, so that one is done, and I think, you
know, she made a good point, is that where you
limit concentration, then that can also have
benefit effects, and, in fact, your City Council
has already done that and said that there is one
dispensary permitted in your municipality, so
that does drive down concentration, you're not
going to have them on every corner.
But going back to the point where
you have people that are educated and can ask
questions and are taught about the different
products and the levels of dosing and what's safe
and how to consume, I think that's far better
than somebody going to pick up four of these T H C
infused drinks and going home and downing them
and sort of let's see what happens.

regulated business where you do have -- you know,
it's not only the state, but it's also the city,
that are able to regulate these things, I think
that's far preferable to the sale of cannabis
products that are -- you know, is already on the
black -- I hate to use the term black market, but
that's -- you know, it's out there already, and
so I think that's a far preferable alternative.
I think it's also, again,
normalization, when you take away the stigma,
kids are interested in the forbidden fruit, the
things that they can't have, and so when you do
bring it into a regulated environment, maybe that
does normalize it so that it's , you know, known
as a safe product.
I mean, you've got cigarettes,
you've got alcohol, you have all sorts of
products that are already sold here that
contribute to health problems.
I think, you know, some of the
studies that she cited dealt with people that
consumed huge amounts of T H C , I mean, smoking six
times a day, things of that nature.

opportunity to educate, take away this forbidden
fruit, it's an opportunity -- I 've got kids
myself, it's an opportunity to have a discussion
with your children about what a dispensary is and
what the issues can be with cannabis, so maybe it
is normalization, but that's not necessarily such
a bad thing because when you bring it into a
regulated environment where it's safe for
consumers and it gives -- you know, keeps kids
out, again, you know, strict note under 2 1 not
allowed in the facility as opposed to the gas
stations and the liquor stores that are selling
these unregulated products.
And I think just turning back to
some of the comments from 2024, we hit on the
odor question, everything is pre-packaged.
High -- you know, high quality HVAC systems, you
are not going to have any odors that are going to
impact surrounding neighbors.
Again, just talking about the police
because I think that's very, very important, we
met with our police chief, talked through our
security system, talked him through how we
operate and he had no concerns, and I have not

taking of testimony and public hearing?
COMMISSIONER WILLIAMS: So moved.

PETITION OPPOSING SPECIAL-USE
APPROVAL
Proposed K-9 to Life Dog Grooming
111 W. Madison Street, Unit F — Yorkville, Illinois
PZC Case No. 2026-09
To the City of Yorkville Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council:
We, the undersigned, respectfully submit this petition regarding the proposed K-9 to Life Dog
Grooming business at 111 W. Madison Street, Unit F.
We recognize the applicant's right to operate a business in Yorkville and have no objection to
dog grooming as a business in an appropriate location. Our concern is whether this particular
use is compatible with the existing residential dwelling directly above the proposed commercial
space and whether the applicant has provided sufficient information to demonstrate compliance
with the City's standards for approval of a special use.
The concerns below are based on the characteristics of this particular building, its existing
residential occupancy, the proposed nature of the business, and the information contained in the
applicant's submitted materials.
1. Historic Residential Construction and Mixed
Residential/Commercial Use
The proposed business is located within a historic building that has previously served residential
and other purposes and is now being used for a combination of residential and commercial
occupancy.
A residential dwelling is located directly above the proposed dog-grooming operation. Dog
grooming is inherently different from many ordinary office or retail uses because it involves live
animals, bathing, dryers, clippers, frequent customer drop-off and pickup activity, water usage,
wastewater, humidity, odors, and potentially recurring animal noise.
The applicant should therefore demonstrate that the proposed commercial operation can
function within the existing building without unreasonably affecting the comfort, safety,
sanitation, or ordinary use and enjoyment of the residential dwelling above.
2. Noise and Residential Enjoyment
Dog grooming can involve barking, whining, movement of animals, grooming equipment, dryers,
bathing equipment, customer activity, doors opening and closing, and other intermittent noise.
Because the residential dwelling is immediately above the proposed business, even moderate
recurring noise may have a substantially greater impact than it would on a neighboring
commercial property.
The application does not appear to provide a detailed analysis of expected noise levels, sound
transmission through the existing structure, hours during which potentially noisy equipment will
operate, or measures that will be used to prevent unreasonable disturbance to the residential
occupant.
The applicant should identify the equipment that will be used, anticipated noise-producing
activities, and proposed measures to minimize transmission of sound into the residential
dwelling.
3. Existing Sewer-Gas Odor and Sanitary Conditions
A sewer-gas-type odor has been noticeable outside the building. This odor has not been
observed inside the residential apartment.
We are not asserting the cause of this odor or claiming that the existing plumbing system is
defective. However, the presence of an existing exterior odor warrants appropriate investigation
before approving a use that will introduce additional bathing and wastewater activity into the
building.
The applicant's special-use application states simply that the business will be "self contained
inside business" and that the existing building has "all utilities." These statements do not
establish that the existing plumbing and drainage infrastructure has been evaluated for the
proposed commercial use.
The City should require adequate documentation or inspection demonstrating that the proposed
bathing and wastewater activities can be accommodated safely and appropriately by the
existing plumbing, drainage, and sanitary systems.
4. Moisture, Humidity, Odors and Vapors
The residential apartment and proposed commercial space do not share the same HVAC
system. However, separate HVAC systems do not by themselves establish that a historic
building provides adequate separation between residential and commercial activities.
A dog-grooming operation will generate moisture and humidity from bathing, as well as odors
from animals, shampoos, cleaning products, waste, and other grooming activities. Dryers and
other equipment may also introduce heat and airborne material into the commercial space.
The applicant should demonstrate how moisture, humidity, odors, and vapors will be controlled
and exhausted and should establish that these conditions will not adversely affect the residential
occupancy above or the building as a whole.
This should be evaluated based upon the actual physical characteristics of the existing building
rather than assuming that a commercial operation will be adequately isolated simply because
the two spaces have separate HVAC systems.
5. Plumbing, Drainage and Wastewater
The business plan describes a dedicated bathing area in addition to grooming and cutting
areas. Bathing dogs on a recurring commercial basis will create substantially different
wastewater demands from those associated with ordinary residential occupancy.
The applicant should provide sufficient information regarding:
● The proposed bathing facilities;
● Drainage capacity;
● Wastewater discharge;
● Hair and debris management;
● Appropriate traps and cleanouts;
● Prevention of odors and sewer-gas intrusion;
● Cleaning and sanitation procedures; and
● Whether the existing plumbing infrastructure is adequate for the proposed commercial
use.
The applicant's statement that the building already has utilities does not, by itself, demonstrate
that the existing infrastructure is adequate for the proposed intensity and type of use.
6. Applicant's Proposed Scale and Future Growth
The applicant's materials contain several figures regarding the anticipated scale of the business.
The special-use application states approximately four to five customer vehicles per day,
while the business plan states that the business initially expects approximately four to six dogs
per day, five days per week. The business plan also identifies a goal of approximately $100,000
in gross annual sales as the business grows.
These figures raise an important question that has not been adequately addressed: what level
of customer and animal traffic is anticipated if the business achieves its stated sales
objective?
Four to five vehicles per day may represent the applicant's initial projection, but it is unclear
whether this is intended to be a permanent operating limitation, an initial estimate, or simply a
projection for the beginning of the business.
Likewise, four to six dogs per day appears to describe initial operations rather than necessarily
the maximum number of animals the business intends to serve.
The applicant should disclose the assumptions underlying its $100,000 annual sales goal,
including the anticipated average revenue per dog or customer and the corresponding number
of dogs and customer visits required to reach that goal.
The applicant should also clarify:
● The anticipated number of dogs served per day at the $100,000 annual sales level;
● The anticipated number of customer vehicles and vehicle trips per day at that level;
● Whether one vehicle may transport multiple dogs;
● The anticipated number of employees as the business grows;
● Whether four to five customer vehicles per day is an enforceable limitation;
● Whether four to six dogs per day is an enforceable limitation;
● Whether increased volume would require additional zoning or special-use review; and
● What measures will prevent future growth from creating impacts materially different from
those represented in the current application.
A special-use approval should not rely solely upon the smallest initial operating projection when
the applicant's own business plan expressly contemplates substantial future growth.
7. Parking, Traffic and Access
There are five parking spaces immediately in front of the residential portion of the
building that serve the residential occupancy.
If these spaces are privately owned or otherwise designated for the residential occupants,
customer use of those spaces could directly reduce parking available to residents.
The applicant should clearly identify where customers will park for drop-off and pickup and
demonstrate that the proposed business can operate without displacing parking serving the
residential dwelling.
The surrounding downtown area already has competing parking and transportation demands,
including the nearby county building and Kendall Area Transit activity.
Vehicles parked or stopped along the street can also inadvertently interfere with:
● Mail delivery;
● Garbage and refuse collection;
● Snow removal;
● Municipal services;
● Bus access; and
● Safe access to the property.
While four or five customer vehicles per day may appear modest in isolation, repeated drop-off
and pickup activity can create recurring conflicts, particularly if several vehicles arrive during
concentrated periods.
More importantly, the applicant's stated intention to grow the business means that the City's
evaluation should not be based solely upon the initial projection of four to five vehicles per day.
The applicant should demonstrate that adequate customer parking and access will remain
available as the business develops toward its stated sales objective and that residential parking
and access will not be compromised.
If the five spaces in front of the residential portion are privately controlled residential parking
spaces, consideration should also be given to clearly designating them as Resident Parking
Only and directing customers to appropriate alternative parking.
8. Compatibility With the City's Special-Use Standards
The City's special-use standards require consideration of whether the proposed use will be
unreasonably detrimental to public health, safety, comfort, or general welfare; whether it will
injure the use and enjoyment of property in the immediate vicinity; whether adequate utilities
and necessary facilities are available; and whether adequate ingress and egress measures exist
to minimize traffic congestion.
The concerns raised in this petition directly relate to those standards.
The issue is not whether dog grooming is an acceptable business generally. The issue is
whether this particular dog-grooming operation, in this particular historic mixed-use building, can
operate without unreasonably affecting the residential dwelling immediately above it.
The application materials provide general assurances that the business will be self-contained,
have low traffic, and utilize existing utilities. However, those assurances do not fully address the
specific physical and operational conditions described above.
Before approving the special use, the City should require the applicant to provide sufficient
information to establish that the proposed use is compatible with the existing residential
occupancy and that its anticipated growth will not create impacts beyond those represented to
the Commission.
REQUEST
For the reasons stated above, we respectfully request that the Planning and Zoning
Commission recommend denial of the proposed special use unless and until the applicant
demonstrates that the proposed dog-grooming operation can comply with the City's special-use
standards at this particular location.
If the City determines that the special use should nevertheless be approved, we respectfully
request that approval be subject to specific, enforceable conditions addressing, at minimum:
1. Maximum daily dog volume;
2. Maximum customer vehicle activity;
3. Hours of operation;
4. Noise-producing equipment and noise mitigation;
5. Moisture and humidity control;
6. Odor and vapor control;
7. Plumbing, drainage and wastewater capacity;
8. Proper sanitation and waste management;
9. Protection of residential parking and access;
10. Designated customer parking;
11. Procedures for drop-off and pickup activity; and
12. Any future increase in the intensity or scope of the operation that could materially
change its impact on the residential occupancy.
We respectfully ask the City to evaluate the proposed use based upon the actual
characteristics of the building, the existing residential occupancy, and the full level of
business activity reasonably contemplated by the applicant's own business plan, rather
than relying solely upon initial operating projections.
Thank you for your consideration of these concerns.
Respectfully submitted,
Date: 9/9/26
SUMMARY:
The petitioner, Katie Ash on behalf of District Salon Suites LLC, has filed an application with the United
City of Yorkville, Kendall County, Illinois, seeking special use approval for a massage establishment at
201 West Hydraulic Avenue, Suite 13. The subject property is approximately 0.46 acres and is zoned B-2
Mixed-Use Business District. The proposed use requires special use approval within the “Hydraulic Street”
Downtown Overlay District. The subject property is generally located north of West Hydraulic Avenue,
south of the Fox River, east of State Street, and west of South Main Street, as shown on the map below.
PROPERTY BACKGROUND:
The subject property is located at 201 W. Hydraulic Ave. and consists of an approximately 0.46-acre lot
improved with a single-story, 4,500 square foot building and a parking lot containing seven (7) off-street
parking spaces. The building was originally constructed in 1980’s for the United States Postal Service
(USPS) and operated as a post office until the mid-2000s. In 2006, the United City of Yorkville purchased
the property from the USPS and utilized it as the City’s Parks and Recreation building, which included
office space, recreational programming space, and a preschool.
Memorandum
To: Planning and Zoning Commission
From: David Hansen, Senior Planner
CC: Krysti Barksdale-Noble, Community Development Director
Bart Olson, City Administrator
Sara Mendez, Senior Planner; Thian Dim, Planner I
Date: October 14, 2026
Subject: PZC 2026-10 – 201 W Hydraulic Ave, Suite 13 (Special Use)
Proposed Massage Establishment for District Salon Suites
In September 2024, the Williams Group purchased the property from the City and, in coordination with
Katie Ash, the petitioner, began interior and exterior renovations to establish District Salon Suites. The
building has been fully renovated and upgraded to accommodate 15 luxury salon suites. A salon suite is a
private space within a larger salon facility where a beauty or personal service professional can
independently operate their business. Exterior improvements to the building included a new sidewalk and
new glass doors with sidelights along the east end of the building, as well as a new sign facing W Hydraulic
Ave. Interior improvements included various upgrades to the building’s plumbing, including sinks, a water
heater, drains, and other fixtures, as well as electrical improvements, including lighting and receptacles.
District Salon Suites officially opened to the public on June 1, 2025.
ZONING AND ADJACENT LAND USES:
The subject property is zoned B-2 Mixed-Use Business District. The property is also located within the
City’s Downtown Overlay District and is designated within the “Hydraulic Street” District, as shown in
below in Figure 3.10. Yorkville Form-Based Districts Regulating Plan, of the City’s Unified Development
Ordinance (UDO). The star indicates the location of the subject property.
The following table identifies the current zoning and land uses of properties adjacent to the subject property:

Figure 3.10. Yorkville Form-Based Districts Regulating Plan
SPECIAL USE REQUEST:
The petitioner, Katie Ash, is requesting
special use authorization to operate a
massage establishment within the “Hydraulic
Street” District of the City’s Downtown
Overlay District. The subject property is
zoned B-2 Mixed-Use Business District and
is located in Downtown Yorkville.
The proposed massage establishment will
occupy Suite 13 at 201 W. Hydraulic Ave.,
located in the middle of the District Salon
Suites, as shown on the floor plan to the right.
The suite is approximately 125 square feet
and will contain one hand sink and one
massage table.
The tenant will be Patricia Whisenant, a
massage therapist licensed by the State of
Illinois. The business will initially operate
under her name and may establish a doing-
business-as (DBA) name at a later date.
Whisenant has four (4) years of experience as
a massage therapist and will provide
personalized massage services tailored to
each client’s needs, with an emphasis on self-care and overall wellness. The business is proposed to operate
seven (7) days a week, from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., and is anticipated to serve approximately five (5) to six
(6) clients per day. Whisenant will be the sole employee of the business.
ANALYSIS:
Per the City’s recently adopted UDO, a Massage Establishment is defined as “any establishment having
a source of income or compensation derived from the practice of "massage" as defined in section 10 of the
Massage Licensing Act, 225 ILCS 57/10 and which has a fixed place of business where any person, firm,
association or corporation engages in or carries on any of the activities defined in title 3, chapter 9,
"Massage Establishments", of this Code.” Massage establishments were classified as a Special Use in the
B-1, B-2, and B-3 Districts effective January 2024. As the property is zoned B-2 Mixed-Use Business
District, the proposed massage establishment requires Special Use approval to operate at this location.
The Special Use approval would apply specifically to 201 W. Hydraulic Ave, Suite 13. If the current
massage user were to leave the suite, another massage user would be permitted to operate from Suite 13
without going through a new Special Use process. However, the new massage therapist would need to
obtain the required Massage Establishment license through the City Clerk, as outlined in the City’s Massage
Licensing section of this memo. If the massage use were expanded beyond the currently approved space or
relocated to another unit within the building, a new Special Use approval would be required.
In addition to the underlying B-2 zoning, the property is located within the City’s Downtown Overlay
District, which provides additional regulations applicable to properties within Downtown Yorkville.
Therefore, the proposed use must also be considered within the context of the Downtown Overlay District.
Downtown Overlay District
Within the Downtown Overlay District, the proposed massage establishment is classified as a
“Neighborhood Service” land use. “Neighborhood Services” are listed as a permitted use within the
“Hydraulic Street” District of the Downtown Overlay District pursuant to Table 10-3-13(C)(1), Permitted
Use Table, of the City’s UDO, as shown below. Section 10-3-13(C)(3)(c)(4) of the UDO defines
Table 10-3-13-(C)(1) Permitted Use Table
“Neighborhood Services” as a use occupying less than eight thousand (8,000) square feet and specifically
identifies “Massage Establishments” as a Neighborhood Service use, as shown in Table 10-3-
13(C)(3)(C)(4-5) below.
The “Hydraulic Street” District is intended to provide an eclectic mix of retail and service uses within a
pedestrian-centered environment, with storefront-style buildings supporting a broader range of commercial
and service uses. The proposed massage establishment is consistent with the intent of the “Hydraulic Street”
District as the business will provide a low-impact personal service that is compatible with the existing mix
of retail and service uses, has a limited physical footprint, and supports the pedestrian-oriented character of
Downtown Yorkville and the existing beauty and personal service uses within the building.
Staff would like to note, although a massage establishment is currently identified as a permitted use within
the Downtown Overlay District, the use classification was subsequently amended in all three of the City’s
business districts, including the B-1, B-2, and B-3 Districts, from a permitted use to a special use. The
Downtown Overlay District was adopted in 2019, prior to the adoption of the City’s current UDO in 2024,
and this provision was not updated to reflect the subsequent amendment. Therefore, the proposed massage
establishment has been treated as a special use in accordance with the City’s current regulations.
Structure
The petitioner is not proposing any changes to the existing structure or parking area. The property will
continue to function as a commercial building with the proposed massage establishment occupying an
existing suite within District Salon Suites. The proposed use will not alter the appearance of the building
or its relationship with the surrounding properties.
Parking
The property has an existing off-street parking lot containing approximately seven (7) parking spaces,
including one (1) ADA-accessible space. The property is classified as Retail/Services less than 8,000 square
feet, which has no minimum or maximum off-street parking requirement under the City’s UDO.
Additionally, a City-owned public parking lot immediately east of the property provides approximately 33
additional spaces, including two (2) ADA-accessible spaces.
The petitioner anticipates serving approximately five (5) to six (6) clients per day, with business hours from
8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Given the anticipated number of clients and the operating hours, the existing on-site
parking and adjacent public parking lot are expected to provide adequate parking for customers.
CITY’S MASSAGE LICENSING
While the proposed massage establishment requires Special Use approval for zoning purposes, the business
must also comply with the City’s Massage Establishment licensing requirements, administered through the
City Clerk’s Office, as well as meet all applicable State of Illinois professional licensing requirements. No
person may provide massage therapy or massage services for compensation within the City unless the
individual providing the services is a licensed massage therapist in accordance with State requirements.
A massage establishment is required to obtain a City license and must submit an application to the City
Clerk, along with the applicable nonrefundable annual license fee. The application requires verification of
the information provided and may include criminal background checks and fingerprinting for individuals
required to be identified in the application. City licenses are valid for one year, from January 1 through
December 31. The City Clerk is required to approve or deny a complete application within 60 days of
acceptance.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:
The 2016 Comprehensive Plan designates this property for Downtown Mixed-Use Core (DMU). This land
use is intended to encourage a mix of commercial and residential uses and support Downtown Yorkville as
a mixed-use center of activity. The Comprehensive Plan also encourages the revitalization of Downtown
through building rehabilitation, façade improvements, adaptive reuse, and the attraction of new businesses
and services. Allowing a variety of uses within existing buildings can increase their utilization while
supporting the value of Downtown properties and businesses.
The petitioner has renovated and upgraded the existing building to accommodate District Salon Suites,
which includes 15 luxury salon suites. The proposed massage establishment is consistent with these goals
by introducing a service-oriented business into an existing Downtown property, supporting small-business
development, and contributing to the continued activation and diversification of Downtown uses. The
proposed use will occupy an existing suite within the recently renovated building and will not require any
additional site alterations. Additionally, the proposed use will operate as a low-impact neighborhood service
that complements the existing salon suite businesses and is consistent with the types of uses identified
within the “Hydraulic Street” District of the Downtown Overlay District.
Given the existing development pattern, staff finds that the requested special use is consistent with
the goals of the Comprehensive Plan and the Downtown Mixed-Use Core future land use designation.
STANDARDS FOR AUTHORIZING SPECIAL USE:
Per Section 10-8-5-D of the Yorkville Unified Development Ordinance, the Planning and Zoning
Commission shall review the following standards when considering a request for Special Use approval:
1. The establishment, maintenance or operation of the Special Use will not be unreasonably
detrimental to or endanger the public health, safety, morals, comfort, or general welfare.
2. The Special Use will not be injurious to the use and enjoyment of other property in the immediate
vicinity for the purpose already permitted, nor substantially diminish and impair property values
within or near the neighborhood in which it is to be located.
3. The establishment of the Special Use will not impede the normal and orderly development and
improvement of surrounding property for uses permitted in the district.
4. Adequate utilities, access roads, drainage or other necessary facilities have been or shall be
provided.
5. Adequate measures shall be taken to provide ingress or egress so designed as to minimize traffic
congestion in the public streets.
6. The proposed Special Use is not contrary to the objectives of the City’s adopted Comprehensive
Plan.
The petitioner has provided a response to each of the above standards as part of the Special Use application.
The petitioner’s responses are included in this packet for review and will be entered into the public record
as part of the public hearing process.
PROPOSED MOTION:
In consideration of testimony presented during a Public Hearing on October 14, 2026 and discussion of
the findings of facts, the Planning and Zoning Commission recommends approval to the City Council a
request for Special Use authorization to operate a massage establishment within the “Hydraulic Street”
District within the Downtown Overlay District, for an approximately 0.46-acre parcel generally located
north of West Hydraulic Avenue, south of the Fox River, east of State Street, and west of South Main
Street, commonly known as 201 W. Hydraulic Avenue – Suite 13 subject to {insert any additional
conditions of the Planning and Zoning Commission}
STAFF COMMENTS:
Staff is supportive of the requested Special Use for a massage establishment. The proposed use will occupy
an existing suite within the recently renovated District Salon Suites, complement the existing beauty and
personal service uses, and provide a low-impact service compatible with the surrounding Downtown area.
The use is consistent with the intent of the “Hydraulic Street” District and the Downtown Mixed-Use Core
designation of the 2016 Comprehensive Plan, supporting the continued growth and diversification of
Downtown Yorkville.
City Council consideration is tentatively scheduled for the City Council meeting on October 27, 2026.

PETITIONER DEPOSIT ACCOUNT FUND:
It is the policy of the United City of Yorkville to require any petitioner seeking approval on a project or entitlement request to establish a Petitioner Deposit Account Fund
to cover all actual expenses occurred as a result of processing such applications and requests. Typical requests requiring the establishment of a Petitioner Deposit Account
Fund include, but are not limited to, plan review of development approvals/engineering permits. Deposit account funds may also be used to cover costs for services related
to legal fees, engineering and other plan reviews, processing of other governmental applications, recording fees and other outside coordination and consulting fees. Each
fund account is established with an initial deposit based upon the estimated cost for services provided in the INVOICE & WORKSHEET PETITION APPLICATION. This initial
deposit is drawn against to pay for these services related to the project or request. Periodically throughout the project review/approval process, the Financially Responsible
Party will receive an invoice reflecting the charges made against the account. At any time the balance of the fund account fall below ten percent (10%) of the original deposit
amount, the Financially Responsible Party will receive an invoice requesting additional funds equal to one-hundred percent (100%) of the initial deposit if subsequent
reviews/fees related to the project are required. In the event that a deposit account is not immediately replenished, review by the administrative staff, consultants, boards and
commissions may be suspended until the account is fully replenished. If additional funds remain in the deposit account at the completion of the project, the city will refund
the balance to the Financially Responsible Party. A written request must be submitted by the Financially Responsible Party to the city by the 15th of the month in order for
the refund check to be processed and distributed by the 15th of the following month. All refund checks will be made payable to the Financially Responsible Party and mailed
to the address provided when the account was established.

FINANCIALLY RESPONSIBLE PARTY:
I acknowledge and understand that as the Financially Responsible Party, expenses may exceed the estimated initial deposit and, when requested by the United City of
Yorkville, I will provide additional funds to maintain the required account balance. Further, the sale or other disposition of the property does not relieve the individual or
Company/Corporation of their obligation to maintain a positive balance in the fund account, unless the United City of Yorkville approves a Change of Responsible Party and
transfer of funds. Should the account go into deficit, all City work may stop until the requested replenishment deposit is received.
