Public Hearing on a petition by the Julio Carrillo representing the owner EYM Realty of Illinois, LLC (EYM Restaurant Group) for approval of zoning map amendment from the “GC” General Commercial District to the “PD-C” Planned Development Commercial District and approval of a Planned Development Plan for a .71 acre site located at 701 W. Lincoln Highway. Proposed is an approximately 6,400 square foot new building that will include a Pizza Hut Restaurant and other commercial uses with associated improvements and consideration to approve waivers to the Unified Development Ordinance for Planning and Zoning Commission May 9, 2018 Page 2 of 4 parking, building and parking setbacks, maximum site coverage and a Planned Development less than two acres and other approvals as required for the subject property to allow for the construction as proposed. Chair Atherton opened the public hearing at 6:03pm. Greg Carroll with Linear Architecture in Dallas, Texas, representing the owner, EYM Restaurant Group, went over the proposal. He said they will be demolishing the existing Pizza Hut Restaurant and constructing a new building that will include a Pizza Hut Restaurant with 42 seats and possibly two other future tenants. He added they will be converting the full access onto Lincoln Hwy. to a right in/right out access because of the proximity to the Carroll Avenue intersection. Mr. Carroll went over the proposed architecture and materials for the new building. He mentioned the roof- top equipment will be screened and the trash dumpster will be enclosed with materials similar to the building. He noted there are 35 parking spaces required and they will be providing 31 spaces. He said the waiver on the parking is justified as they anticipate a lot of walk-up customers due to the proximity to NIU. Mr. Carroll concluded that they worked with City staff to locate the building on the site at the best possible location and moved it closer to the intersection which will make it more aesthetically pleasing and pedestrian friendly. Principal Planner Olson went over the staff report dated May 4, 2018 provided in the Commissioner’s packets. He mentioned there was a sample motion (dated 5-9-18) provided to the Commissioners that recommended approval of the petition and plans. Chair Atherton gave the public a chance to speak. No one from the public spoke. Mr. Wright asked Mr. Olson if he could summarize the comments received from Richard Finn of 858 W. Lincoln Highway on the Citizens Response Form. Planner Olson responded Mr. Finn was responding on behalf of a trust, which owns the site, which is known as the Junction Shopping Center. They do not support the proposal because they have concerns with the proposed improvements based on the site size and they also believe parking and parking setbacks could be a major issue. Ms. Barbe commented there are some empty storefronts in that area and it would be nice to know who would be moving in the two additional tenant spaces. Mr. Carroll responded that they do not have a tenant at this time and will be advertising once the building is constructed. He stated he feels the proposed building will be more visible than the others in the area that have some vacancies. Planner Olson said as proposed any use in the General Commercial zoning district would be able to lease the space if they comply with the parking regulations. Mr. Carroll added it would likely be a retail use, but the owner will not allow any restaurants. Mr. Castro commented that he wanted to make sure the proposed right-in/right-out along Lincoln Highway functions properly so motorist obey it. He asked if the proposed sidewalk along the west side of the building will be of adequate width, so pedestrians do not step out into the driveway. It was clarified there is enough Planning and Zoning Commission May 9, 2018 Page 3 of 4 space for pedestrians to safely go around that side of the building. Mr. Castro also commented that he would like to see wider sidewalks along Lincoln Hwy. Chair Atherton asked if there could be more parking spaces added to the southwest or southeast corners of the site. Planner Olson noted there is no room on the southwest side of the site because that space is needed for trucks to maneuver around the building and get out onto Lincoln Highway. In regarding the southeast side, Planner Olson mentioned there is no additional room for parking spaces without further reducing the setbacks along Lincoln Hwy. and Carroll Ave. Chair Atherton asked how the City can be certain in the future if there will be enough parking spaces. Planner Olson said future tenants will have to have a net floor area that is at least 30% off from the gross floor area. Chair Atherton asked if all the parking spaces were the same size. Planner Olson responded the width and length of the parking spaces meet the minimum standards in the UDO. Chair Atherton noted concern about the location of the proposed ground sign along Lincoln Highway and the visibility for motorist and that it will be in the sight distance triangle. Planner Olson responded that the sign will need to be re-located and was pointed out as a comment in the staff report that needs to be addressed. Mr. Wright asked what the square footage of the retail space was after the Pizza Hut was built out. Mr. Carroll responded that it will be about 4,000 square feet. Mr. Wright asked if they have done a similar multi-tenant building for this client. Mr. Carroll responded they have. Mr. Castro commented that NIU is letting general parking in the parking garage just to the north of this site, so he is not as concerned about the parking lot having enough spaces. Chair Atherton asked if there was consideration of the building being rotated and placed in a north/south direction. Mr. Carroll commented they tried, but it works better as proposed because of the setbacks. Chair Atherton gave the public a chance to speak once more, no one from the public spoke. Chair Atherton closed the public hearing at 6:55pm. Chair Atherton asked if there was any further comments or questions from the Commissioners, there was none. Mr. Crull moved based upon the submitted petition and testimony presented, the Planning and Zoning Commission forward its findings of fact and recommend to the City Council approval of a Zoning Map Amendment from the “GC” General Commercial District to the “PD-C” Planned Development Commercial District and approval of a Planned Development Plan for a .71 acre site located at 701 W. Lincoln Highway to allow for an approximately 6,400 square foot commercial building that will include a Pizza Hut Restaurant and other commercial uses with associated improvements per the Planned Development Plans and Development Planning and Zoning Commission May 9, 2018 Page 4 of 4 Standards listed in Exhibit A and subject to all staff comments being addressed prior to final City Council action as listed in Exhibit B. Mr. Wright seconded the motion. A roll call vote was taken. Chair Atherton – yes, Ms. Barbe – yes, Mr. Castro – yes, Mr. Crull – yes, Mr. Wright – yes. Motion passes 5-0-2. Ms. Buckley and Ms. Nier were absent. Mr. Castro made a motion to amend the agenda to allow for another opportunity for Public Participation on items not on the agenda. Mr. Crull seconded the motion, and the motion was approved by unanimous voice vote. Resident Bessie Chronopoulos commented there needs to be a review on what governs each commission and board in the City, including more consistency and interaction between the groups. She stated the Planning and Zoning Commission should have more interaction with the Economic Development Commission and Landmarks Commission. She concluded that she likes the idea of a council liaison for each Commission and noted she has spoken to the Mayor and Community Development Director regarding this. F. REPORTS Principal Planner Olson mentioned the next Planning and Zoning Commission meeting will be May 23, 2018, however there is no public hearings scheduled yet. He noted meetings after May 23rd will be June 6th and 20th. Mr. Olson also reported the petition regarding amendments to the Planned Development Ordinance for 1114 Blackhawk Road (Sigma NU Fraternity) will be going before the City Council next Monday, May 14th.

Burski) I. GENERAL INFORMATION A. Purpose Approval of a Final Plat of Resubdivision to combine Lots 205 and 206 in Devonaire Farms Unit 2 in order to construct a single- family detached home. B. Owner/Applicant Steven L. Burski C. Location and Size Lots 205 and 206 in Devonaire Farms Unit 2 - Furrow Street; .42 acres II. BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS The applicant, Steven L. Burski, owns lots 205 and 206 in Devonaire Farms Unit 2 Subdivision located along Furrow St. The lots are vacant and the applicant would like to construct a single-story wood framed home with a full basement on the lots (see plans for home in packet). Since the home is proposed to be located over the common lot line, the owner will need to resubdivde the property and create one lot out of the two. Lot 205 is 9,070 sq. ft. and Lot 206 is 9,000 sq. ft., with a combined lot size of 18,070 sq. ft. or .42 acres.The resubdivsion of the two lots will remove the common lot line between the lots and also vacate the five-foot utility easements that run along the common lot line. The new lot will still maintain five-foot utility easements on the side yards and the 10-foot utility easment along the rear yard. The Plat has been reviewed by staff and all comments have been addressed. The applicant has applied for a building permit for the home and is nearing completion of all permit requirements. Once the Plat is approved and recorded the permit for the home can be issued. The Commission’s review only pertains to the Plat, not the home. III. RECOMMENDATION Sample Motion: I move that the Planning and Zoning Commission recommend approval of the Final Plat of Burski Resubdivision dated April 25, 2018.
