John Philipchuck, DBC &W Rick Murphy, Pasquinelli John Marten, JEN Land Design Mike Cook, CM Lavoie &Associates The meeting was called to order at 9 am by Joe Wywrot. The minutes from the May 24 meeting were approved as corrected. B &P-Rezoning The property is currently zoned M-1. The Moose Lodge bought the property to the east, and there is a flag lot in the rear. The petitioner will draft a development agreement, and attach to the plan for the plan commission meeting. Also a concept site plan is requested by staff, to show this property in context of other sites. Staff is advising R-2 zoning because there are duplexes, and each lot should be a minimum of 15,000 Sq. feet. Density on the comprehensive plan in a transitional neighborhood is 2.25–3.5 units per acre. There will be trails on the south side of Corneils Rd. The petitioner should dedicate a 40 ft. right of way easement from the center line of Corneils Road and a 15 utility easement in addition to the 40 feet ROW. Dan Kramer will provide documentation he could provide to the city, to prove the area was annexed to the City. This is scheduled for the July 11 Plan Commission. Bru-elio, Lot 2 Meyers Subdivision–Annexation The property is located on the south side of River Road, and 300 ft. east of Conover property. The north portion of this is being developed by Rush Copley and staff would like the petitioner to consider easements to allow for storm water discharge to the river. The first would be 15 feet wide parallel to the east property line, and the other 50 feet wide (and temporary)parallel to the east property line, allowing for a storm water conveyance pipe from River Rd. right of way to the river. The petitioner would like the city to replenish any trees removed during construction. 1 Joe Wywrot said if a trail was on the north side of River Road would require a 40' easement. A draft annexation agreement will be drafted. This is scheduled for the July 11 Plan Commission. Zangler— 1.S Mile Review The property is off the southwest corner of Heartland Circle, and is served by Quinsey Lane. The city is recommending that the petitioner seek annexation with an R-1 zoning classification,which requires minimum lot size of 18,000 sq feet and 100 feet building setbacks. The petitioner will schedule a pre-application meeting and draft an annexation agreement. The petitioner may subdivide with 1 lot to the front, and 3 to the back. There is a possibility of an east/west street, connecting to Bruell Street to the west. There could be interest in putting a trail on top of the easement, running N-S, and extending into the Woodworth property. The petitioner should check the access easement to Quincey Lane and confirm any private streets in the subdivision. Kalant—Rezoning The existing business on Rt. 47 does not meet setback requirements for the proposed B-2 zoning. Staff is suggesting upon approval of the zoning change, this building be considered a non-conforming structure. A new building should not be built without applying for a variance. The parking lot access needs to be okayed by IDOT. The petitioner should verify the square footage of the house to calculate the number of parking stalls. There will be a 6'- 8' wide carriage walk along Rt. 47. The petitioner should prepare a site and landscaping plan before rezoning. This is scheduled for the July 11 Plan Commission. Fields of Westhaven—Preliminary Plan Bill Dunn stated the 16" stub out of Bailey Meadows should come across the site and the 16"main coming down Beecher Rd. should be extended. The sanitary comes down Beecher to the south. The transportation plan shows Beecher Rd. with a 100' right of way. All intersecting right of ways lines should have a minimum 25-foot radii. Anna Kurtzman states that this area is annexed and subject to an agreement. Fifty four lots do not meet the minimum lot requirements of the established zoning as R2 PUD, so the agreement needs to be amended. To conform, staff is advising an amendment, where all lots need to be a minimum of 12,000 sq. feet and a minimum of 80' wide. The city is asking for clarity on who maintains the landscape easement. Joe Wywrot is asking for an additional access point along Baseline Rd. He suggested moving the school site north, with a frontage on Silverton. This would give the city two points of ingress and egress. A roadway would connect Silverton with Baseline at the northeast corner of this development. 2 Staff is recommending of an additional 5 acres for a school/park site. Bailey Meadows to the east has a 5 acre park, and a 5 acre park was planned for this development, for a total of a 10 acre park. The school district needs 15.01 acres for a site. Staff is recommending the road coming west from Bailey Meadows be extended to make a natural separation between the park and school site. There is a 10' trail along the west side of(Aspen) Beecher Rd. Currently there is no proposed trail east from Baseline Rd. There is a dedicated right of way along Baseline Rd. so a trail, in lieu of sidewalk, was the direction Dave Mogle believes the city will go. There are no credits offered for improvements to Baseline Road currently in any annexation agreements. A full roadway improvement to the easement was proposed by Joe Wywrot, similar to one completed by the developer at Cannonball Estates along Faxon Road. The developer should obtain a right of way across the ComEd property going to the south along(Aspen) Beecher Rd. The developer will meet with Dr.Engler. The petitioner would like to continue without an amendment to the annexation agreement. This will be at the July 26 Plan Council meeting. Grande Reserve Unit 28—Preliminary Plan This plan contains the same number of units approved in the annexation agreement. Bill Dunn's comment#4 will be struck from the record. The developer will address Laura Haake's comments#14 on the final landscaping plan. Onsite buffer requirements are addressed in the annexation agreement and the developer will abide by these. Travis Miller will check the annexation agreement regarding Mill Rd. buffer landscaping and the 30' buffer yard around the storm water basin(items#5 and#6.) Regarding Anna Kurtzman's comments, Rick Murphy showed the minimum setback distance data table to staff. The design standards and setback verbiage are copied from the annexation agreement and comply with standards. The developer will add a diagram of the buildings showing the side and front yards to the plan. There are 3 parallel parking spaces north of building#17, so the total spaces equal 67 (comment#3). The developer is adding sand volleyball off Big Rock Boulevard. Sidewalks will be on one side of the street only. The developer pointed out additional parking north of buildings 11-16. In addition there is a walk through between buildings 13 and 14 connecting to the interior bikepath. The developer is open to striping this pathway. Private roads will be on private lot easements dedicated to the association. Dave Mogle would like trail in lieu of sidewalk on the south side of Mill Road, to the YMCA then across to the regional park. Funding will be researched—it could be built as part of the Mill Road project or the developer could build the trail. Joe Wywrot questioned if the annexation agreement needs to be amended because of the change in the order of the roads being constructed. Bristol Ridge Road and Freedom Place projects depleted monies in the road fund. Funding is needed for Mill Road. John Philipchuck read from the annexation agreement regarding Mill Rd. and Kennedy Rd. north of the railroad: "within 1 year of issuance of 500 building permits in 3 1 Y Units#1,2,3,4,5; or sooner if funds in the Grande Reserve road fund are available". Currently about 150 building permits (approximately)have been issued. This is scheduled for the July 11 Plan Commission. Rob Roy Falls—Annexation and Concept PUD Per Travis Miller,the staff will prepare comments on the annexation agreement for the public hearing, which is scheduled on July 11th at plan commission, and City Council on July 24. It is targeted for EDC/COW in August. Mike Cook and the developer, at this time, have no comments or discrepancies regarding Anna Kurtzman's memo. The transfer of land, 3 acres west of Beecher, is very crucial to this plan. The city needs to ok the location of the police station, which is shown too far west on this plan. Rob Roy attorneys are preparing documents regarding conveyance of this property. The developer also has reviewed documents for Rt. 34 conveyance plats and Beecher Rd. easements,prepared by Smith. Water mains will come through Kendall Marketplace. There is a 16' available near out lot O and a 12' on the north east side near the proposed police station area. There is a need for a pressure reducing valve station in the western part of this development, or perhaps even further west. Annexation agreements negotiated will determine the proportionate shares for the developers. There is a stub needed to Cobblestone or at the west property line extended to the south. All sanitary west of the creek will then go to the south. The pump station is not temporary,but a permanent solution should be determined. Mike Cook needs engineering information regarding stubs on Cobblestone plans, and a main connecting in Fox Hill, serving as a tributary to the lift station. Sexton offered to front fund the temporary signalization, as well as the 4 legged sign studies. Staff will make a final determination on signalization and funding and draft an agreement, which would be independent of the annexation agreements. Between out lots H and 1, they proposed a right in, right out, left in to IDOT. The developer needs traffic studies reports by Cobblestone. Joe Wywrot wonders if IDOT will review all four traffic signals (west of Beecher Rd.) as one, in order to approve any one location. If so, the timing for developers' submittals to IDOT, annexation agreements, and funding become increasing important to completion of the all of the Rt. 34 corridor projects. There is a Nicor 8" gas main along Rt. 34 and an AT&T transcontinental fiber. Traffic studies must be complete before IDS are completed. The developer will check on this. The city extension of Beecher Rd. to Faxon Rd. will be an off site improvement. On site will be an extension of Faxon Rd. west, which clips the northwest corner and comes south of the tracks. The development would like an alignment sketch. This road gives an additional access to the sr. living area. There is a trail to the west of Beecher Rd. and trails coming from Cobblestone to the creek. This should cross the creek. Staff is asking for a sidewalk north of the detention,behind lots P and Q, with a trail to the shopping area. Rob Roy Club trail to the Rob Roy Creek is a possibility and will be discussed at the park board meeting. 4 a L A frontage road off Beecher Rd. is shown, and Mike Cook will address the fact that this is too close to exit from the club. All roadways on site are private. Sidewalks north of Rt. 34 and 10' trail west side of Beecher will be provided. The water fall is a mechanical system and the lower basin will release near the frontage road. The police station access would be on Beecher Rd. and a stub would be on the southeast corner. There is a HOA park in the age appropriate section and no credit given for that. The developer advised the interceptor sewer will remain, and no changes are being sought through YBSD. This will be presented at the July 11 Plan Commission and July 24 City Council. Minutes submitted by Annette Williams 5
