PUBLIC COMMENT: Tom Hewlett – He commented on the maintenance building going in at
Plummer Park. He does not like the location of where it will go and feels it
should be put back where it was originally located on the original plans. He also
feels that spending $300,000 at one time doesn’t make a lot of sense. He is for
the park but thinks that there are a lot of things that need to be done and that
this maintenance building can be put aside. He also feels that a fabric structure
can be used as storage in place of what the current plan is.
Randy Niebur – At the last ACS meeting staff delayed the gaming review for
about a month as they didn’t have enough information at that time to
determine a conclusion. His quick review is that there is no effect on the
community so far because the City has it so well restricted that most people
don’t know it’s there. The Moose has received $64,673.41 in less than six
months. The Knights of Columbus has received $7,357 in less than a month. The
City has had a financial gain of $10,622.18.
Randy Niebur – Last year at least four aldermen voted to law marijuana stores in
the City. This year with two new alderwomen he thinks it would be a very good
idea to put on the ballot for the citizens to decide. He does not want
Edwardsville to be known as a place to get marijuana and a place with the big
gas station with slot machines. He asks that it be put on the ballot and let the
people of Edwardsville decide. Will Krause explained that the State only issues
so many licenses for marijuana dispensaries. When the marijuana law passed
there were a few businesses that were looking to locate in the City of
Edwardsville. However, that time has passed so the number of licenses issued
1
pg.3
AGENDA
by the state are filled for this region. Will Krause explains that whether it gets
put it on the ballot or not the law is essentially dead since we don’t have a
business currently. Additional licenses would be issued to economically
distressed areas that had experienced high rates of incarceration and were
going to use those new issuances as part of a rehabilitation program for
individuals who had offenses with cannabis in the past and that does not pertain
to Edwardsville.
1. Approval of minutes from the September 30, 2021 ACS meeting – Motion to approve
(Krause), seconded (Stack) and voted all ayes to forward to Council
2. Correspondence & Announcements:

3. Council Matters
A. FILED FOR SECOND READING: None
B. NEW ITEMS:
1) Approval of Agreement with AAIC, Inc. for Design Services of Fire Department
Substation. This agreement will be for Architectural and Engineering Design Services
for the East station. The Requests for Qualifications were issued with six firms
responding. Four firms were interviewed and staff recommends AAIC for this project.
This will include solar panel on the roof and it was allowed to have extra review time
with Cool Cities Committee. They went over the Resolution that was approved in
2012 to follow the lead principals so we can coordinate with Cool Cities. The dollar
amount of this contract is $345,010. This does include construction administration
services if we get to that point. Potentially this will be out for bid in May 2022.

Re: Case 2021-41 Resolution for a Special Use Permit for 6181 Bennett Drive (PID 14-2-15-
15-03-301-012) from B-2 Commercial/Business District
Dear Mayor and Council:
Your Zoning Board of Appeals transmits for your consideration its recommendations on a Special
Use Permit to allow the owner of 6181 Bennett Drive to allow two (2) drive-through lanes for the proposed
bank building. The property is currently zoned B-2 Commercial/Business District.
After due notice as required by law, the Zoning Board of Appeals held a public hearing on October
25, 2021 at City Hall, 118 Hillsboro Avenue, Edwardsville, Illinois.
The Zoning Board of Appeals recommended approval of the Special Use Permit with a vote of 6
ayes, 0 nays and 0 abstain, based on the following findings of fact:
1. Existing uses and zoning of nearby property and relationship to Edwardsville’s adopted comprehensive
plan.
Direction Zoning Designation Use
North R-2 Multiple-family Residential District Vacant Lot
East B-2 Commercial Business District Commercial
South B-2 Commercial Business District Commercial
West R-1 Single Family Residential District with SIUE
Institutional Public Service District Overlay
2. Extent to which property value diminishes adjacent to the zoned parcels. Value decrease to be
supplied by the petitioner and made by professional appraiser.
No property value information provided by petitioner.

3. Extent to which the proposed change alters or promotes the public health, safety morals or general
welfare.
The proposed use will neither alter nor promote the public health, safety, morals, or general welfare of
the community.
4. The relative gain to the public as compared to the hardship imposed upon the property owners, and
there is a need for the proposed special use.
The Special Use Permit would allow two (2) proposed drive-through lanes in conformance with the B-2
Commercial Business Zoning District Regulations.
5. The suitability of the subject property for the zoned purposes indicated by ordinance.
It is suitable. The adjacent properties to the east and south of the subject site are zoned B-2
Commercial/Business District. Site circulation is adequate for the proposed use and the location of the
drive-through window allows for sufficient stacking within the drive-through lanes.
According by a vote of 6 ayes, 0 nays, and 0 abstain, the Zoning Board of Appeals recommend approval of
the requested Special Use Permit.
Respectfully submitted,

Re: Case 2021-36 Resolution for a Variance for 1425 McCoy Drive (PID 14-2-15-12-04-406-
021) from R-1 Single Family Residence District
Dear Mayor and Council:
Your Zoning Board of Appeals transmits for your consideration its recommendations on a Variance
to allow a side yard setback of 4.3 feet to the west property line, rather than the required 10 feet at 1425
McCoy Drive. The property is currently zoned R-1 Single Family Residence District.
After due notice as required by law, the Zoning Board of Appeals held a public hearing on August
23, 2021 at City Hall, 118 Hillsboro Avenue, Edwardsville, Illinois.
The Zoning Board of Appeals recommended denial of the Variance. A motion to approve the
request failed with a vote of 0 ayes, 4 nays and 0 abstain, based on the following findings of fact:
1. Existing use(s) and zoning of the property in question.
The subject property is currently zoned R-1 Single Family Residence District.
Direction Zoning Designation Use
North “B-2” Commercial Business District Vacant Lot

Zoning Resolution of a Variance
2. The particular physical surroundings, shape or topographical condition of the specific property involved
would result in a particular hardship upon the owner, as distinguished from a mere inconvenience or
loss of revenue, if the strict letter of the regulations were carried out.
The subject property is Lot 40 of a subdivision known as “Cheryl Lynn Estates” and contains
approximately 18,600 sq. ft.
Required setbacks in an “R-1” Single-Family Residential District are:
25 ft. front setback
10 ft. side setback
30 ft. rear setback
There are no particular concerns about the physical surroundings, lot shape, or topographical
conditions with this property.
3. The condition upon which the requested variance is based would not be applicable, generally to other
property within the same zoning classification.
This lot is irregular measuring ±95’ wide with a depth of 142.07’ on the west side and 210.40’ on the
east side. The lot contains ±18,600 square feet in area and platted in 1978.
The proposed 4.3’ side yard setback is not consistent with other homes in Cheryl Lynn Estates.
4. The alleged difficulty or hardship has not been created by any person presently having an interest in
the property.
The home was constructed in the late 1980’s and Madison County records indicate that the current
owners have lived in the home since it was built.
5. The granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to other property or
improvements in the neighborhood in which the property is located.
The distance between the structure on the subject tract and the adjoining property to the west will be
reduced as a result of the proposed variance.
6. The proposed variance will not impair an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent property, or
substantially increase congestion in the public streets, or increase the danger of fire, or endanger the
public safety, or substantially diminish or impair property values within the neighborhood.
The proposed variance would not.
7. The proposed variance complies with the spirit and intent of the restrictions imposed by this code.
Staff’s opinion is that the variance request does not comply with the spirit and intent of the restrictions
imposed by this code.

8. There is no self-imposed hardship.
This request is considered a self-imposed hardship because the applicant was aware of the size and
configuration of the structure on the lot at the time the property was acquired. Further, the City’s bulk
standards for setbacks have not changed since 1987.
The Zoning Board of Appeals recommended denial of the requested Variance. A motion to approve the
request failed with a vote of 0 ayes, 4 nays and 0 abstain.

ORIGIN: Public Works
SUMMARY:
The Ironworks PUD was approved by the City Council on February 6, 2018. The original PUD approval

10,000 sf with 2,400 sf basement to utilize for storage only and reduce setback from the southern
property line of 20 feet instead of the required 25 feet. The PUD Conditions, as amended, remain
applicable for the requested PUD Amendment.
RATIONALE:
The Planned Unit Development Amendment allows:
Drive-thru be removed from Lot 5 and given to Lot 6.
Two-story building approximately 10,000 sf with 2,400 sf basement to utilize for storage only.
Reduced setback from the southern property line of 20 feet instead of the required 25 feet.
The remaining PUD conditions are unchanged.
The Ironworks PUD Amendment was recommended for approval by the Plan Commission by a vote of
8 ayes and 0 nays.
COMPLIANCE WITH COMPREHENSIVE PLAN OR OTHER PLAN:
The PUD and corresponding amendment complies with the 2010 Comprehensive Plan.
