Prestwick of Yorkville—Final Plat
Engineering comments
1) Final plat comments# 1, 3 ,4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 need to be addressed.
2) There are no specifically delineated pedestrian bike trail easements, but provisions
allow bike trails can be put in the storm water management easements at some later
date.
3) In this section all of the 20 foot easements (10 each side)have been provided for.
No changes in right of ways and lots are anticipated, unless there are changes in
sanitary sewers.
Land planning comments
1) The developer will need permission from the city to stock pile on the park site.
The park development standards are in the subdivision control ordinance, and the
ordinance states stockpiles are not allowed unless written authorization is received
from the City. There should be no top soil stock pile area shown prior to city's ok
of the engineering plans.
2) Mr. Olguin noted that currently top soil has been added to the park site. The
question may be " is this a park site before the plat is approved". The developer
will receive direction from the park board. The city needs the deed to the
park land, and a note on the plat that this property is "to be conveyed". The
developer has no intention to front fund the park, and will direct a letter to the
park board, with park development intentions. The letter will be to Scott Sleezer
by October 20th.

This is scheduled for Plan Commission on Oct. 26 .

Kendallwood Estates (Willman property)—Preliminary plan
Land planning comments
1) There are two 6 acre properties west of this property owned by Holmberg (the
southernmost property is zoned R-2 and in city limits). West of there is McKenna
property now being considered for annexation by the city. The city is in need of
access to the properties west of Kendallwood property. Scott Mai will look at one
centralized location for a stub,between lots 66-69.
2) Mr. Schoppe supports the recommendation made by Smith Engineering regarding
the 75 foot buffer, but Mr. Phillipchuck believes it is not in the City code. Mr.
Wywrot suggested that the Ill. Corp of Engineering should provide a letter to the
city stating that this development would not be impacting the wetland.
3) John Whitehouse is proposing going between lots 94-95 and 88-89, as an alternative
to the water main along the east property line. Mains are stubbed to the east end of
Bador Street.
4) Lot 6 will be platted as a right of way, with a specific time frame (maybe 2-3 years
to be determined by the City Council), with the possibility this may become a build-
able lot if the road is not stubbed within this time frame.
5) The developer will look at reconfiguring lot 96 (for another build-able lot) and
asking the city to look at an alternative looking cul-de-sac.
6) Comment 23 - The entire strip south of the lot line lot 26 should be labeled as right
of way.
7) Offsite water main improvements are shown on the preliminary engineering plans
from 126 and 47. Final schematics will be conditional because of easements. Over
sizing recapturing language should be added to the final plat ordinance.
8) The storm water management is needed before preliminary plat approval.
Schoppe comments
1) There will be no park on this site.
2) The developer will provide a drive-able maintenance easement into lots 48 and
47, accessing lots 100 and 101. The language in the subdivision conditions
ordinance stating that in special situations the City may require a public sidewalk.
Joe Wywrot stated the sidewalk would be on one side. This would bring the
sidewalk down Van Emmon to Mille Street. The developer will check with Scott
Sleezer, for future bike trails.
3) No trails have been proposed in this development because of the topography
along the ComEd easement. The developer may look at a connection to the trail
at the top of Lot 98, but must consider the slope and public safety issues.
4) Mike Schoppe asked for the alternative road plans: 1) showing east road stub;
and 2) Lot 6 - reconfiguring lower lots.
This is scheduled for Plan Commission on November 9th , with revised preliminary
engineering and preliminary plat. On the road issue to route 126, an alternative will be
shown on the plat, showing the two options: 1) the road stub to the east will be shown
(with a note that this is a possible road access); 2) reconfiguration of lot 6.

Eldamain Center for Business—Preliminary PUD plan
Engineering comments
1) Official application should be checked as preliminary plan.
2) Submittal is needed of preliminary storm water reports, traffic study and soils
reports.
3) Comment 10—500 feet is the minimum radius, and should be accomplished along
lot 11. If road A is extended to north property line, it should eliminate the need for
the radius and shortens the cul-de-sac. The stub should be clear east of the north
wetland area.
4) Water and sewer stubs southerly of Lot 11 —sewer is on the east side, a Y should be
established. A six inch stub may be needed so the road will not be dug up.
5) When the property is developed, stubs are need to access lot 12-13 and a cross
access easement agreement will be needed. Provision should be made that a sewer
main could be extended through lot 12-13 to the Savitsky property,where it would
not impact the access point.
6) Both lots 12 and 13 should have access easements, as the city needs flexibility to
allow traffic from Savitsky to the N/S road. An easement note should be on the
plan.
7) The city needs access point comments by Fran Klaas, and a response from IDOT.
8) The pressure reducing valve (comment 14 ) will be addressed at final engineering.
9) The developer should check with the building department for fire suppression
information for a possible booster pump.
10) The developer will contact Mary DeLahr regarding pending sewer and water
recapture agreements regarding Rt. 34 crossing.
Schoppe comments
1) Inland has no building drawings at this time. Per the city's new ordinance
(comment 3) a commitment is needed for architectural standards and a
photometric plan is needed for a preliminary plan for approval.
2) The developer will resubmit a concept plan for review, which first goes to the
plan commission, then the Committee of the Whole,then City Council.
The developer will be scheduled on the October 26 Plan Commission, submitting aerial
photos and re-petitioning for a concept plan.
