PLAN COMMISSION
FINDINGS & RECOMMENDATION SUMMARY
Meeting Date: 1/7/2026
Prepared By: Kevin Anderson, Planner
PLN25-0041
Special Use for a Planned Development and Preliminary and Final Plat of Subdivision for
Higgins Crossing located at 125 and 155 W. Higgins Road
Findings of Fact – Special Use
Sec. 9-1-18-I: Standards. No special use shall be recommended by the Plan Commission unless said
Plan Commission shall find:
1. That the establishment, maintenance, or operation of the special use will not be detrimental to or
endanger the public health, safety, morals, comfort, or general welfare.
FINDING: Neither the Development nor its tenants will impose a threat to or endanger the public
health, safety, morals, comfort or general welfare of the Village, its citizens, business and rule of
law.
2. That the special use will not be injurious to the use and enjoyment of other property in the immediate
vicinity for the purposes already permitted, nor substantially diminish and impair property values within
the neighborhood.
FINDING: The proposal will improve two vacant parcels which have been unoccupied for many
years. The proposal also addresses the unknown potential commercial redevelopment of the
site. Property values in the neighborhood will not be diminished by this proposal.
3. That 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.
FINDING: The proposal is designed to integrate into the existing street system and will install or
improve existing utilities in the area. This project will have no impact on the development
options for surrounding property. The special use will not impede the normal and orderly
development and improvement of surrounding property for uses permitted in the district.
4. That adequate utilities, access roads, drainage, and/or necessary facilities have been or are being
provided.
FINDING: Adequate utilities, access roads, drainage, and necessary facilities exist or are being
provided.
5. That adequate measures have been or will be taken to provide ingress or egress so designed as to
minimize traffic congestion in public streets.

Public Hearing
Special Use for a Planned Development and Preliminary and Final Plat of
Subdivision for Higgins Crossings located at 125 and 155 W. Higgins Road
REQUEST SUMMARY
D.R. Horton is seeking approval of a Special Use for a Planned Development and
Preliminary and Final Plat of Subdivision for a 72-lot townhome development, called
Higgins Crossing, at 125 and 155 W. Higgins Road.
Location: 125 & 155 W. Higgins Road
Property Owner / Applicant: EFN Hoffman Estates Properties LLC / D. R.
Horton Inc.
Property Size: 6.18 acres
Zoning / Land Use: B-2 Community Business, two unoccupied
commercial buildings
Adjacent Properties: North: Higgins Road ROW, B-2 Community
Business
West: A-1 Apartment District, Village Park &
Town and Country Apartments
South: R-8 Two-Family Residential, Hampton
Knoll Townhomes
East: B-2 Community Business, Valli Produce
Center
BACKGROUND / ANALYSIS
The subject property is a 6.1 acre site located at the southeast corner of Evanston and
Higgins Roads. The property is zoned B-2 Community Business and is improved with
two unoccupied car dealership structures and surface parking lots. The site has been
vacant for nearly 10 years and marketed for sale for the last several years without much
commercial interest. D.R. Horton, contract purchaser, is seeking approval to redevelop
the site as a townhome community.
PLANNED DEVELOPMENT PROCESS
Planned Developments for multi-family dwellings are permitted as a Special Use in the
B-2 zoning district in conformance with Section 9-1-18A of the Municipal Code. The
process is similar to the Village’s Special Use/Site Plan review process in that a
Petitioner submits plans (as required per Section 9-1-18A) which are reviewed by staff
and then brought forth to the Plan Commission and Village Board for consideration.
Pending favorable approval, the applicant may submit for building permits.
Page 1 of 5
Page 75 of 175
PROJECT SUMMARY AND SITE PLAN
Except as noted, the development plans are consistent with all site design and build
requirements as outlined in Section 9-1-18A-N of the Municipal Code, including building
height, floor area ratio, land improvements, utilities, landscaping, parking, and signage.
The project proposes 72 new attached residential units within 14 buildings. The new
units would be oriented around a new private interior drive aisle. The drive aisle
provides direct access to Higgins Road and Evanston Street. The building envelopes
would maintain a 20’ setback from the exterior lot lines. The architectural plans show a
front stoop which would be setback a minimum 15.5’ from the exterior lot lines. The
units have rear load garages which would all have driveway access from the new
private street. Units would be setback 18.5 feet from the private street to allow room for
vehicles within the driveway. Each building would include 4 to 6 units and would be 3-
stories in height. The facade includes Hardie Board siding and stone veneer. The units
would all have 2 or 3 bedrooms.
Page 2 of 5
Page 76 of 175
Landscaping
Landscaping would be provided throughout the development and would include a mix
of trees and shrubs in compliance with the code. Foundation plantings are provided
around each building. A dense row of evergreen trees are proposed along the south
and east lot lines. Parkway trees would be planted along Evanston Street with the
proper species and spacing. Parkway trees are not proposed along the Higgins Road
right-of-way due to underground utility conflicts. The bottom of the detention basin
would be seeded with emergent and wet meadow grasses.
Traffic and Parking
The Higgins Road access would be maintained from the existing curb cut and would be
right-in/right-out only. Higgins Road is an IDOT controlled right-of-way and they have
jurisdiction to approve permits for the drive aisle connections and the sidewalk
replacement. The access to Evanston Street would be relocated approximately 50 north
of the current curb cut. The new location will align with the drive aisle for Village Park
Apartments to the west to reduce traffic conflicts. The existing curb cut would be closed
with barrier curb, and the previous drive aisle would be removed and landscaped. The
drive aisle identified as Jacobs Court would remain private, and maintenance
responsibilities would fall to the homeowner’s association. The private drive meets the
minimum requirements for a two-way drive aisle.
The Petitioner has submitted an Autoturn exhibit to verify there is adequate access for
emergency vehicles and trash collection. Each unit includes a 2-car attached garage
with parking for 2 additional vehicles in each driveway. There are an additional 23 guest
Page 3 of 5
Page 77 of 175
parking spaces provided throughout the project. The parking ratio would be 4.3 spaces
per unit. The Petitioner submitted a traffic and parking study for this project completed
by KLOA. The traffic study indicates the overall traffic generated by this use would be
less than the previous commercial uses of the site generated. The study analyzed the
level of service (LOS) for all surrounding roadways and determined the proposal can be
accommodated by the existing road system with minimal delays in the existing
conditions.
Public sidewalks would be reinstalled along Evanston Street. The multi-use path along
Higgins Rd would be reconstructed and would include ADA upgrades. Pedestrian
access into the site would be provided from sidewalk legs to the adjacent rights-of-way.
An internal sidewalk system provides pedestrian access through the development.
Engineering
The site drains from south to north under the natural conditions. Stormwater would be
collected on site and directed to a new dry bottom detention basin proposed in the
center of the development. The basin would ultimately discharge at a restricted rate into
an existing storm sewer in the Higgins Road right of way. New water mains would be
extended around and through the project by connecting to existing adjacent mains.
Services to each unit would be extended from the new internal mains. The plan would
abandon an aging water main in the Higgins Road right-of-way and re-route the new
main through the subject property along Higgins Road frontage. Sanitary mains would
be extended from existing mains to provide service. IEPA and MWRD permits are is
required for this project.
Subdivision and Marketing Signage
The plans identify building 13 at the northwest corner of the site as a model
building. The Petitioner has submitted plans for marketing signs which would exceed
the typical code restrictions. These include:
3 - 32 sf. double sided marketing billboards
1 - 24 sf. marketing billboard
3 ‘sailboat’ or feather flags up to 21’ in height
1 - 40 sf. model banner
The plans indicate one subdivision identification sign along Higgins Road. This sign
would be approximately 6’ tall and 20 square feet. All temporary marketing and
permanent signage must obtain building permits.
PLAT OF SUBDIVISION
The property would be formally re-subdivided, as outlined in the attached Plat of
Subdivision. Each unit would be on its own lot. All property which is not improved with a
unit would be placed within a common area lot, including all streets, sidewalks, storm
water detention and utilities. A homeowner's association would be established for the
maintenance of the common areas, including the private aces drive, signage and
stormwater detention improvements. The entire area common lot is within a blanket
easement for utilities and access. The site will be subject to the establishment of a
dormant Special Service Area (SSA) for future maintenance of common area ponds
and drives should the HOA no longer be able to maintain these items. Final
Declarations will be required to be recorded as a condition of final approval as well.

SUMMARY OF DEVELOPMENT
The Petitioner and builder is D.R. Horton, Inc. – Midwest. Petitioner is a multi-brand
homebuilding company capable of serving homeowners during all phases of life. Petitioner has
been building homes since being founded in 1978 and has grown to be the largest homebuilder
both nationally and in the Chicago region – building over 93,000 homes nationwide and 1,000
homes in the Chicago area in 2024. Bringing decades of construction and development experience
to each project, Petitioner has found success building communities that offer quality housing
options designed to serve the diverse needs of the local community. Petitioner serves multiple
buyer segments across a variety of price points, and Petitioner looks forward to providing a new
housing option for the Village’s existing residents as well as those that would like to live in a well-
respected municipality with excellent schools and park facilities.
The Subject Property is located at the southeast corner of Higgins Road and Evanston
Street. Historically, the Subject Property has been zoned “B-2” Community Business District and
utilized for operation of car dealerships. Over the course of the past decade, car dealerships and
commercial/retail uses in the area have gravitated north to Golf Road, rendering commercial use
of the Subject Property no longer viable. As a result, the Subject Property has remained unoccupied
3
Page 85 of 175
and underutilized for the last 5+ years despite multiple changes in ownership, including the
Rohrman Auto Group, the Purdue University Research Foundation, and most recently, an affiliate
of the Napleton Automotive Group. The Subject Property has not been well maintained during
this timeframe – windows have been boarded up, vegetation has become overgrown, and the
Subject Property has been the subject of multiple building code violations and complaints.
Petitioner now seeks Village approval to reposition and redevelop the Subject Property with a
seventy-two (72) unit owner occupied townhome community to be known as Higgins Crossing.
The proposed townhome development is consistent with the planning documents and
reports adopted by the Village. The Village’s most current Comprehensive Plan was adopted
August 6, 2007 (“Comprehensive Plan”). The Comprehensive Plan designates the future use of
the Subject Property as “Commercial,” which designation was consistent with the Subject
Property’s use at the time of the Comprehensive Plan’s adoption in 2007. However, given the age
of the Comprehensive Plan, it did not anticipate the subsequent 2008 market crash nor the changing
trends in development for the Subject Property and the surrounding area, which changes
effectively rendered use of the Subject Property for commercial/retail purposes obsolete. Still, the
proposed development is consistent with the broader vision for the Village set forth in the
Comprehensive Plan. As the Comprehensive Plan notes, “as the Village looks to the future, there
will be a greater demand for a variety of housing types and price points to meet the market demand
of the current demographic trends.”
This sentiment is echoed in the Village’s more recent Economic Development Strategic
Plan adopted November 21, 2022 (“Economic Development Strategic Plan”) and Residential
Market Analysis Report prepared January 26, 2023 (“Residential Market Analysis”). As the
Economic Development Strategic Plan notes, development within the Village from the 1990’s
4
Page 86 of 175
through the 2010’s largely consisted of traditional suburban subdivisions with varying price points,
such that “it’s time to encourage new products with new amenities that appeal to a new generation
of residents.”
Most relevant to the proposed development is the Village’s 2023 Residential Market
Analysis, which was prepared at the direction of the Village for the specific purpose of evaluating
the potential for multifamily for rent and attached for sale housing opportunities. The Residential
Market Analysis concludes that the state of the new construction home market represents a
significant opportunity for the development of attached for sale housing units in the Village,
labeling the potential for this housing type as “significant.” Importantly, the Residential Market
Analysis finds that the Village has yet to capture its share of this residential market, stating
“moderate- to larger-scale townhome developments are generating strong sales volumes at
multiple locations throughout the market, yet Hoffman Estates is currently void of such
development activity.” As of the date of the Residential Market Analysis, there were 1,740
apartments and less than 350 attached for sale housing units approved or under construction in the
Village, and the report found that “while other projects are at concept stage or in early discussion,
the total number of units in planning is still 40% lower than market capacity through 2028 – not
including upside potentials.”
Higgins Crossing will assist in fulfilling the needs and gaps in the market identified in the
Comprehensive Plan, the Economic Development Strategic Plan, and the Residential Market
Analysis. This will be accomplished via the conversion of otherwise underutilized property to a
vibrant townhome community targeting a variety of homebuyers, including some of the fastest
growing housing segments of our population – millennials, young professionals, and empty
nesters.

Unlike the historical use of the Subject Property, the proposed development aligns with the
current trend of development in the area and will logically transition between the surrounding uses,
including the higher intensity commercial uses to the north and east, the Village Park apartment
complex to the west, the Hampton Knoll duplexes to the south, and the detached single-family
homes the further south you move from Higgins Road.
Townhomes are also an appropriate transitional use along a principal arterial roadway
corridor like Higgins Road. Whereas the uses along Golf Road to the north and Roselle Road to
the east are commercial/retail in nature, the Higgins Road corridor is generally more residential,
hosting a variety of residential housing developments including apartments, duplexes, townhomes,
condominiums, and single-family detached homes.
The proposed townhomes in Higgins Crossing will help support the existing commercial
and retail uses in the area, including those along Golf Road and Roselle Road which are only a
short walk away and easily accessible via the proposed carriage walks and sidewalks planned for
the development and the existing sidewalk networks along Higgins Road, Golf Road, and Roselle
Road. Valli Produce is located immediately adjacent to the east, providing an additional
convenience for future residents. The future residents will also benefit from the development’s
proximity to shopping districts, recreational amenities, and employment centers. Within a 3-mile
radius, there are a large variety of retail establishments, groceries, restaurants, entertainment
opportunities, and recreational amenities. Nearby employment corridors offer future residents the
additional feature of conveniently located employment opportunities.
Higgins Crossing will be easily accessible via separate access points from Higgins Road
and Evanston Street. The existing access point from Evanston Road will be moved north to align
with the entrance across the street to the Village Park apartment complex consistent with best
6
Page 88 of 175
planning practices to avoid conflicting turning movements coming out of the two neighboring
subdivisions. The private, circular roadway internal to the development has been designed to
circulate traffic efficiently and safely. The private roadways will be owned and maintained by the
homeowners’ association to be formed for the community (“HOA”). On a broader scale, the
Subject Property is conveniently located in close proximity to key transportation corridors,
including the I-90 and I-290 interchange, offering easy access to the greater Chicagoland area and
providing convenience for commuting residents.
Higgins Crossing will be served by a large stormwater detention basin located central to
the development. This naturalized detention basin will include a variety of seed mixes and areas
of open water, providing the community with an attractive open space feature. The detention basin
will be owned and maintained by the HOA to ensure its proper function and sustained aesthetic
appeal.
Landscape treatments will be utilized throughout Higgins Crossing to enhance the visual
appeal of the community, including a mix of parkway trees, shade trees, and shrubs. In addition to
foundation plantings around each building, extra care has been taken to strategically incorporate
significant landscaping along the Subject Property’s south and east property lines to screen the
development from the adjacent uses and to create the feel of a residential enclave.
Architecturally, the proposed development is consistent with current market trends. The
architectural style can be categorized as “timeless craftsman,” blending a variety of design features
to create an attractive facade. The use of quality and low maintenance materials ensures the
development will withstand the test of time. The townhomes will feature a mix of two and a half
and three-story streetscapes consistent with market trends in the area and consumer demand. All
units will be rear-loaded so no garages are visible to the public eye from Higgins Road and
7
Page 89 of 175
Evanston Street. The homes will feature 3 floor plans with no less than 2 elevations each. The
standard base unit will be comprised of 2 bedrooms, 2.5-3.5 bathrooms, and a 2-car garage, with
a 3rd bedroom and den option available. Square footages will range from approximately 1,650
square feet to 1,800 square feet. Architectural enhancements will include masonry, architectural
shingle roofs, multiple roof peaks for added interest, a variety of window sizes, bump outs to break
up the vertical plane, and a variety of siding types, including hardy board lap siding, board &
batten, and shaker shingle.
The development will provide sufficient parking for both its residents and their guests.
Each of the 72 townhomes will feature 2 garage spaces and 2 driveway spaces for 288 parking
spaces. In addition, 23 guest parking spaces have been incorporated throughout the community,
for a total of 311 parking spaces for the development, or 4.3 parking spaces per townhomes, which
exceeds the amount of parking required by Village Code.
Construction of the development will be completed in a single phase, with demolition and
site development work to be completed in the first half of 2026, home construction to begin in
June of 2026, and home sales commencing in December of 2026.
ZONING REQUESTS AND STANDARDS
1. Approval of a Final Plat of Subdivision.
Petitioner has submitted herewith a Final Plat of Subdivision for the Property. As the
proposed Plat of Subdivision is compliant with Village Code, Petitioner requests the Plat of
Subdivision be approved.
2. Approval of Special Use for Planned Development.
Pursuant to Village Code Section 9-1-18-I, the Planning and Zoning Commission shall, in
8
Page 90 of 175
making its determination, find that adequate evidence is provided to meet the standards of a Special
Use:
a. That the establishment, maintenance, or operation of the special use will not be
detrimental to or endanger the public health, safety, morals, comfort, or general
welfare.
The proposed development is not detrimental to the health, safety, morals or general
welfare and has been designed to avoid or mitigate possible adverse impacts. Historically, the
Subject Property has been utilized for the operation of car dealerships. Over the course of the past
decade, car dealerships and commercial uses in the area have gravitated north to Golf Road,
rendering commercial use of the Subject Property no longer viable. As a result, the Subject
Property has remained unoccupied and underutilized for the last 5+ years. The Subject Property
has not been well maintained during this timeframe – windows have been boarded up, vegetation
has become overgrown, and the Subject Property has been the subject of multiple building code
complaints and violations. Petitioner’s proposed development will facilitate demolition of the
existing buildings on the Subject Property for its redevelopment, converting otherwise
underperforming property to its highest and best use.
The proposed development also aligns with the current trend of development in the area
and will logically transition between the surrounding uses, including the higher intensity
commercial uses to the north and east, the Village Park apartment complex to the west, the
Hampton Knoll duplexes to the south, and the detached single-family homes the further south you
move from Higgins Road.
Townhomes are also an appropriate transitional use along a principal arterial roadway
corridor like Higgins Road. Whereas the uses along Golf Road to the north and Roselle Road to
the east are commercial/retail in nature, the Higgins Road corridor is generally more residential,
9
Page 91 of 175
hosting a variety of residential housing developments including apartments, duplexes, townhomes,
condominiums, and single-family detached homes.
The proposed townhomes in Higgins Crossing will help support the existing commercial
and retail uses in the area, including those along Golf Road and Roselle Road which are only a
short walk away and easily accessible via the existing sidewalk network in the community. In
addition to supporting the nearby commercial uses, the proposed development will enhance the
Village’s revenue streams through new property, utility, and sales taxes.
b. That the special use will not be injurious to the use and enjoyment of other property in
the immediate vicinity for the purposes already permitted, nor substantially diminish
and impair property values within that neighborhood.
The proposed special use will not be injurious to the use and enjoyment of other property
in the immediate vicinity for the purposes already permitted, nor substantially diminish and impair
property values within the neighborhood. As previously noted, the Higgins Crossing development
is a logical transitional use between the commercial uses to the north and east, the
duplexes/townhomes to the south, and the apartment buildings to the west. The proposed
townhomes in Higgins Crossing will help support the existing commercial and retail uses in the
area, including those along Golf Road and Roselle which are only a short walk away and easily
accessible to future residents.
In addition to the development’s support of the local commercial/retail uses, Petitioner has
taken extra care to strategically incorporate significant landscaping treatments along the Subject
Property’s south and east property lines to screen the development from the adjacent residential
uses and minimize any impact on neighbors. To enhance the visual appeal of the community,
additional landscaping will be incorporated throughout Higgins Crossing, including a mix of
parkway trees, shade trees and shrubs.
10
Page 92 of 175
Petitioner also retained Kenig, Lindgren, O’Hara, Aboona, Inc. to conduct a Traffic Impact
Study dated August 21, 2025 (“Traffic Study”) to ensure Higgins Crossing would not have a
negative impact on the existing traffic patterns of the area. Importantly, the Traffic Study
concluded that: 1) the traffic generated by the proposed development will be less than the previous
use on the site; 2) the traffic can be accommodated by the existing area roadway system; and 3)
the access provided off Evanston Street and Higgins Road will ensure efficient and flexible access
to the site. This is in part a result of Petitioner’s strategic design of the community to move the
existing access point from Evanston Street to the north to align it with the entrance to the Village
Park apartment complex consistent with best planning practices to avoid conflicting turning
movements coming out of the two neighboring subdivisions.
In addition to traffic, the development will provide sufficient parking for both its residents
and their guests to minimize on-street parking and congestion within the area. Each of the 72
townhomes will feature 2 garage spaces and 2 driveway spaces for 288 parking spaces. 23 guest
parking spaces have been incorporated throughout the community, for a total of 311 parking spaces
in the development, or 4.3 parking spaces per unit, which exceeds the amount of parking required
by Village Code.
For the above reasons, the proposed development will not be injurious to or diminish or
impair property values within the neighborhood. To the contrary, the proposed development will
eliminate an otherwise unattractive property use located along an important Village corridor and
will facilitate redevelopment the Subject Property for its highest and best use, simultaneously
enhancing the Village’s revenue streams through new property, utility, and sales taxes.
c. That 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.
11
Page 93 of 175
The proposed development of Higgins Crossing will not impede the normal and orderly
development and improvement of surrounding property for uses permitted in the district.
Historically, the Subject Property has been zoned “B-2” Community Business District and utilized
for operation of car dealerships. Over the course of the past decade, car dealerships and
commercial/retail uses have gravitated north to Golf Road, rendering commercial use of the
Subject Property obsolete. As a result, the Subject Property has remained unoccupied and
underutilized for the last 5+ years despite multiple changes in ownership, including the Rohrman
Auto Group, the Purdue University Research Foundation, and most recently, an affiliate of the
Napleton Automotive Group.
Unlike the historical use of the Subject Property, the proposed development aligns with the
current trend of development in the area and will logically transition between the surrounding uses,
including the higher intensity commercial uses to the north and east, the Village Park apartment
complex to the west, the Hampton Knoll duplexes to the south, and the detached single-family
homes the further south you move from Higgins Road.
Townhomes are also an appropriate transitional use along a principal arterial roadway
corridor like Higgins Road. Whereas the uses along Golf Road to the north and Roselle Road to
the east are commercial/retail in nature, the Higgins Road corridor is generally more residential,
hosting a variety of residential housing developments including apartments, duplexes, townhomes,
condominiums, and single-family detached homes.
The proposed townhomes in Higgins Crossing will help support the existing commercial
and retail uses in the area, including those along Golf Road and Roselle Road which are only a
short walk away and easily accessible via the existing sidewalk network in the area.
12

d. That adequate utilities, access roads, drainage, and/or necessary facilities have been
or are being provided.
Adequate utilities, access roads, drainage, and/or necessary facilities have been or are being
provided. All improvements and utilities will be installed consistent with best engineering, water
quality, and management practices. Higgins Crossing will be served by a large stormwater
detention basin located central to the development. This naturalized detention basin will include a
variety of seed mixes and areas of open water, providing the community with an attractive open
space feature. The detention basin will be owned and maintained by the HOA to ensure its proper
function and sustained aesthetic appeal.
With regards to access, Higgins Crossing will be easily accessible via separate access
points from Higgins Road and Evanston Street. The existing access point from Evanston Road will
be moved north to align with the entrance across the street to the Village Park apartment complex
consistent with best planning practices to avoid conflicting turning movements coming out of the
two neighboring subdivisions. The private, circular roadway internal to the development has been
designed to circulate traffic efficiently and safely. The private roadway will be owned and
maintained by the HOA to be formed for the community. Separately, trash and recycling
receptacles will be collected by the Village’s current service provider.
e. That adequate measures have been or will be taken to provide ingress or egress so
designed as to minimize traffic congestion in public streets.
Adequate measures have been or will be taken to provide ingress or egress so designed as
to minimize traffic congestion in public streets. As noted, Higgins Crossing will be easily
accessible via separate access points from Higgins Road and Evanston Street. The existing access
point from Evanston Road will be moved north to align with the entrance across the street to the
13
Page 95 of 175
Village Park apartment complex consistent with best planning practices to avoid conflicting
turning movements coming out of the two neighboring subdivisions. The private, circular roadway
internal to the development has been designed to circulate traffic efficiently and safely. The private
roadways will be owned and maintained by the HOA to be formed for the community.
As part of the Higgins Crossing development, carriage walks and sidewalks will be located
throughout the development to provide residents with easy access to the existing sidewalk network
along Higgins Road and Roselle Road for interconnectivity to the greater area.
Petitioner also retained Kenig, Lindgren, O’Hara, Aboona, Inc. to conduct a Traffic Study
to ensure Higgins Crossing would not have a negative impact on the existing traffic patterns in the
area. Importantly, the Traffic Study concluded that: 1) the traffic generated by the proposed
development will be less than the previous use on the site; 2) the traffic can be accommodated by
the existing area roadway system; and 3) the access provided off Evanston Street and Higgins
Road will ensure efficient and flexible access to the site.
In addition to traffic, the development will provide sufficient parking for both its residents
and their guests to minimize on-street parking and congestion within the area. Each of the 72 units
will feature 2 garage spaces and 2 driveway spaces for 288 parking spaces. 23 guest parking spaces
have been incorporated throughout the community, for a total of 311 parking spaces for the
development, or 4.3 parking spaces per unit, which exceeds the amount of parking required by
Village Code.
f. That the special use shall in all other respects conform to the applicable regulations of
the district in which it is located, except in each instance such as regulations may be
modified by the Village Board pursuant to the recommendation of the Planning and
Zoning Commission.
Except as otherwise depicted on the development plans submitted with the application
14
Page 96 of 175
material, the development will conform to the applicable regulations of the district in which it is
to be located.
g. That the special use shall support the economic development goals of the Village as
conveyed through the Village’s Comprehensive Plan, or other relevant adopted sub-
area or strategic plans.
The special use shall support the economic development goals of the Village as conveyed
through the Village’s Comprehensive Plan, or other relevant adopted sub-area or strategic plans.
The Village’s Comprehensive Plan is nearly 20 years old. The Comprehensive Plan designates the
future use of the Subject Property as “Commercial,” which designation was consistent with the
Subject Property’s use at the time of the Comprehensive Plan’s adoption in 2007. However, given
the age of the Comprehensive Plan, it could not anticipate the subsequent 2008 market crash nor
the changing trends in development for the Subject Property and the surrounding area, which
changes effectively rendered use of the Subject Property for commercial/retail purposes obsolete.
Still, the proposed development is consistent with the broader vision for the Village set forth in
the Comprehensive Plan. As the Comprehensive Plan notes, “as the Village looks to the future,
there will be a greater demand for a variety of housing types and price points to meet the market
demand of the current demographic trends.”
This sentiment is echoed in the Village’s Economic Development Strategic Plan and
Residential Market Analysis. As the Economic Development Strategic Plan notes, development
within the Village from the 1990’s through the 2010’s largely consisted of traditional suburban
subdivisions with varying price points, such that “it’s time to encourage new products with new
amenities that appeal to a new generation of residents.”
Most relevant to the proposed development is the 2023 Residential Market Analysis, which
15
Page 97 of 175
was prepared at the direction of the Village for the specific purpose of evaluating the potential for
multifamily for rent and attached for sale housing opportunities. The Residential Market Analysis
concludes that the state of the new construction home market represents a significant opportunity
for the development of attached for sale housing units in the Village, labeling the potential for this
housing type as “significant.” Importantly, the Residential Market Analysis finds that the Village
has yet to capture its share of this residential market, stating “moderate- to larger-scale townhome
developments are generating strong sales volumes at multiple locations throughout the market, yet
Hoffman Estates is currently void of such development activity.” As of the date of the Residential
Market Analysis, there were 1,740 apartments and less than 350 attached for sale housing units
approved or under construction in the Village, and the report found that “while other projects are
at concept stage or in early discussion, the total number of units in planning is still 40% lower
than market capacity through 2028 – not including upside potentials.”
Higgins Crossing will assist in fulfilling the needs and gaps in the market identified in the
Comprehensive Plan, the Economic Development Strategic Plan, and the Residential Market
Analysis. This will be accomplished via the conversion of otherwise underutilized property to a
vibrant townhome community that targets a variety of homebuyers, including some of the fastest
growing housing segments of our population – millennials, young professionals, and empty
nesters.
3. Approval of a Planned Development.
Pursuant to Village Code Section 9-1-18A-D, Planned Developments shall meet the
following objectives:
a. Creation of a more desirable environment than would be possible through strict
16
Page 98 of 175
application of other Village land use regulations.
The Subject Property is currently zoned “B-2” Community Business District consistent
with its historical use for car dealerships. Section 9-1-18A(E)(1) authorizes special uses for
planned developments in the “B-2” Community Business District. The proposed development will
promote the creation of a more desirable environment than would be possible through strict
application of other Village land use regulations. Given the location, historical use, and site
constraints of the Subject Property, approval of the development as a planned development is
necessary to promote a creative, cohesive, and well thought out community. This includes
development features such as an attractive stormwater basin central to the development, significant
landscaping treatments along the east and south property lines to provide a buffer between the
development and the adjacent uses, adequate room for additional on-site guest parking, and
optimal configuration of the proposed townhomes such that they are all rear-loaded with the fronts
of the buildings facing Evanston Street and Higgins Road.
b. Promotion of a creative approach to the use of land and related physical facilities
resulting in better design and development, including aesthetic amenities.
The proposed Planned Development will promote a creative approach to the use of land
and related physical facilities resulting in better design and development, including aesthetic
amenities. As noted, the historical use of the Subject Property has been for car dealerships. Over
the course of the past decade, car dealerships and commercial/retail uses have gravitated north to
Golf Road, rendering the historical use of the Subject Property obsolete and no longer viable. As
a result, the Subject Property has remained unoccupied and underutilized for the last 5+ years. The
Subject Property has not been well maintained during this timeframe – windows have been
boarded up, vegetation has become overgrown, and the Subject Property has been the subject of
17
Page 99 of 175
multiple building code complaints and violations. Petitioner now seeks Village approval to
reposition and redevelop the Subject Property with a seventy-two (72) unit townhome community.
Unlike the historical use of the Subject Property, the proposed development aligns with the
current trend of development in the area and will logically transition between the surrounding uses,
including the higher intensity commercial uses to the north and east, the Village Park apartment
complex to the west, the Hampton Knoll duplexes to the south, and the detached single-family
homes the further south you move from Higgins Road. Townhomes are also an appropriate
transitional use along a principal arterial roadway corridor like Higgins Road. Whereas the uses
along Golf Road to the north and Roselle Road to the east are commercial/retail in nature, the
Higgins Road corridor is generally more residential, hosting a variety of residential housing
developments including apartments, duplexes, townhomes, condominiums, and single-family
detached homes.
Higgins Crossing will be served by a large stormwater detention basin located central to
the development. This naturalized detention basin will include a variety of seed mixes and areas
of open water, providing the community with an attractive open space feature. The detention basin
will be maintained by the HOA to be formed for the development to ensure its proper function and
sustained aesthetic appeal.
Landscape treatments will be utilized throughout Higgins Crossing to enhance the visual
appeal of the community, including a mix of parkway trees, shade trees, and shrubs. In addition to
foundation plantings around each building, extra care has been taken to strategically incorporate
significant landscaping along the Subject Property’s south and east property lines to screen the
development from the adjacent uses and to create the feel of a residential enclave.
18
Page 100 of 175
c. Preservation and enhancement of desirable site characteristics such as natural
topography, vegetation and geologic features, and prevention of soil erosion.
Higgins Crossing has been designed to preserve and enhance the desirable site
characteristics such as natural topography, vegetation and geologic features, and prevention of soil
erosion. The Subject Property has been historically used for car dealerships, such that there are
minimal desirable topography, vegetation, or geological features. Regardless, the site will be
developed consistent with best water quality, planning, and engineering practices and the
development will incorporate natural features where feasible. Specifically, Higgins Crossing will
be served by a large stormwater detention basin located central to the development. This
naturalized detention basin will include a variety of seed mixes and areas of open water, providing
the community with an attractive open space feature. The detention basin will be maintained by
the HOA to be formed for the development to ensure its proper function and sustained aesthetic
appeal.
In addition, landscape treatments will also be utilized throughout Higgins Crossing to
enhance the visual aesthetics of the community, including a mix of parkway trees, shade trees, and
shrubs. Foundation plantings are planned around each building, and extra care has been taken to
strategically incorporate significant landscaping along the Subject Property’s south and east
property lines to screen the development from the adjacent uses and to create the feel of a
residential enclave.
d. Combination and coordination of architectural styles, building forms, and building
relationships.
The proposed development is consistent with current market trends. The architecture can
be categorized as “timeless craftsman,” blending a variety of design features to create an attractive
19
Page 101 of 175
facade. The use of quality and low maintenance materials ensures the development will withstand
the test of time. The townhomes will feature a mix of two and a half and three-story streetscapes
consistent with market trends in the area and consumer demand. All units will be rear-loaded so
no garages are visible to the public eye from Higgins Road and Evanston Street. The homes will
feature three 3 floor plans with no less than 2 elevations each. The standard base unit will be
comprised of 2 bedrooms, 2.5-3.5 bathrooms, and a 2-car garage, with a 3rd bedroom and den
option available. Square footages will range from approximately 1,650 square feet to 1,800 square
feet. Architectural enhancements will include masonry, architectural shingle roofs, multiple roof
peaks for added interest, a variety of window sizes, bump outs to break up the vertical plane, and
a variety of siding types, including hardy board lap siding, board & batten, and shaker shingle.
e. Provisions for the preservation and beneficial use of open space.
The proposed Planned Development will provide for the preservation and beneficial use of
open space. Historically, the Subject Property and the car dealerships located thereon provided
little to no green space, with almost the entirety of the Subject Property consisting of buildings and
surface parking. Unlike this historical use of the Subject Property, Higgins Crossing has been
designed to incorporate open green space and vegetative features. Specifically, Higgins Crossing
will be served by a large stormwater detention basin located central to the development. This
naturalized detention basin will include a variety of seed mixes and areas of open water, providing
the community with an attractive open space feature. The detention basin will be maintained by
the HOA to be formed for the development to ensure its proper function and sustained aesthetic
appeal.
In addition, landscape treatments will also be utilized throughout Higgins Crossing to
20
Page 102 of 175
enhance the visual aesthetic of the community, including a mix of parkway trees, shade trees, and
shrubs. Foundation plantings are planned around each building, and extra care has been taken to
strategically incorporate significant landscaping treatments along the Subject Property’s south and
east property lines to screen the development from the adjacent uses and to create the feel of a
residential enclave.
f. Encouragement of land uses that promote the public health, safety, and general
welfare.
The proposed Planned Development will encourage land uses that promote the public
health, safety, and general welfare. Historically, the Subject Property has been utilized for
operation of car dealerships. Over the course of the past decade, car dealerships and
commercial/retail uses have gravitated north to Golf Road, rendering commercial use of the
Subject Property obsolete and no longer viable. As a result, the Subject Property has remained
unoccupied and underutilized for the last 5+ years. The Subject Property has not been well
maintained during this timeframe – windows have been boarded up, vegetation has become
overgrown, and the Subject Property has been the subject of multiple building code complaints
and violations. Petitioner’s proposed development will facilitate demolition of the existing
buildings on the Subject Property for its redevelopment, converting otherwise underperforming
property for its highest and best use.
In addition, the proposed development aligns with the current trend of development in the
area and will logically transition between the surrounding uses, including the higher intensity
commercial uses to the north and east, the Village Park apartment complex to the west, the
Hampton Knoll duplexes to the south, and the detached single-family homes the further south you
move from Higgins Road.
21
Page 103 of 175
Townhomes are also an appropriate transitional use along a principal arterial roadway
corridor like Higgins Road. Whereas the uses along Golf Road to the north and Roselle Road to
the east are commercial/retail in nature, the Higgins Road corridor is generally more residential,
hosting a variety of residential housing developments including apartments, duplexes, townhomes,
condominiums, and single-family detached homes.
The proposed townhomes in Higgins Crossing will help support the existing commercial
and retail uses in the area, including those along Golf Road and Roselle Road which are only a
short walk away and easily accessible via the existing sidewalk network in the area. In addition
to supporting the nearby commercial uses, the proposed development will enhance the Village’s
revenue streams through new property, utility, and sales taxes.
g. Support the economic development goals of the Village, as conveyed through the
Village’s Comprehensive Plan, or other relevant adopted sub-area of strategic plans.
The special use shall support the economic development goals of the Village as conveyed
through the Village’s Comprehensive Plan, or other relevant adopted sub-area or strategic plans.
The Village’s Comprehensive Plan is nearly 20 years old. The Comprehensive Plan designates the
future use of the Subject Property as “Commercial,” which designation was consistent with the

4. Approval of a Master Sign Plan.
Petitioner has submitted plans for a permanent monument identification sign as depicted
in the Final Landscape Plan, as well as a separate Marketing Signage Packet (the monument sign
and marketing signage shall collectively comprise the “Master Sign Plan”). Pursuant to Village
Code Section 9-3-8M-4-h(3), the Village Board of Trustees is authorized to approve a Master Sign
Plan if it is determined that implementation of the Master Sign Plan will:
a. Result in architecture and graphics of a scale appropriate for the subject development
and the surrounding area;
The proposed signage will result in architecture and graphics of a scale appropriate for the
subject development and the surrounding area. Petitioner proposes a monument identification sign
for the development to be located at the development’s entrance from Higgins Road as depicted
on the Final Landscape Plan included with the submittal material. The proposed monument sign
will safely and efficiently direct visitors to the development. The proposed sign has been
architecturally designed to complement the area and homes in the development, featuring mounted
metal sign lettering and precast sign paneling. The sign also incorporates high end materials,
including brick and precast concrete.
In addition to the permanent monument identification sign to be located at the entrance
from Higgins Road, Petitioner also proposes a number of temporary marketing signs as depicted
on the Marketing Signage Packet included with the submittal material. The marketing signage
includes billboard and flag signage, as well as model and sales center identification signs, a flag
pole, and a model open banner. The proposed marketing signage will facilitate effective marketing
24
Page 106 of 175
of the development, which benefits both the Petitioner, Village, and neighbors by properly
showcasing the development to expedite its full occupancy. The marketing signage shall be
removed within 30 days of the last home in the development being sold.
b. Provide signage consistent with the site plan and architecture of the project;
The proposed signage is consistent with the site plan and architecture of the project. As
noted, Petitioner proposes a monument identification sign for the development to safely and
efficiently direct visitors to the development. The proposed sign has been architecturally designed
to complement the area and homes in the development, featuring mounted metal sign lettering and
precast sign paneling. The sign also incorporates high end materials, including brick and precast
concrete. In addition to the permanent monument sign, Petitioner also proposes a number of
marketing signs. The proposed marketing signage will facilitate effective marketing of the
development, expediting its full occupancy and ultimately helping to facilitate development of the
Subject Property with its highest and best use with an additional housing option for Village
residents and people looking to move to the community.
c. Avoid visual clutter;
The proposed signage will avoid visual clutter. Petitioner proposes a single monument
identification sign for the development to be located at the entrance along Higgins Road. The sign
is approximately 16’ x 12’ – an appropriate size and mass for the nature of the development and
the sign’s location along a principal arterial roadway like Higgins Road. Likewise, the proposed
marketing signage has been designed and positioned to avoid visual clutter. The marketing signage
is limited in number and has been spread across the frontage of the community, with signage
proposed at the north entrance, the northwest corner, the southwest corner, and near the proposed
25
Page 107 of 175
model home. As noted, the marketing signage will be removed within 30 days of the last home
being sold in the community.
d. Allow visitors, employees and consumers to readily identify the business entrances,
while addressing the community's need for attractive, unobtrusive architecture and
commercial graphics; and
While this is a residential subdivision and not a commercial use, the proposed signage will
allow visitors to readily identify the entrance to the subdivision while providing the community
with attractive and unobtrusive signage. As noted, Petitioner proposes a monument identification
sign for the development to be located at the entrance from Higgins Road to safely and efficiently
direct visitors to the site. The proposed sign has been architecturally designed to complement the
area and homes in the development, featuring mounted metal sign lettering and precast sign
paneling. The sign also incorporates high end materials, including brick and precast concrete. In
addition to the permanent monument sign, Petitioner also proposes a number of marketing signs.
The proposed marketing signage will facilitate effective marketing of the development, expediting
its full occupancy and ultimately helping to facilitate development of the Subject Property with its
highest and best use with an additional housing option for Village residents and people looking to
move to the community. The proposed signage is of appropriate size and mass for the nature of
the development and the development’s location along a principal arterial roadway.
e. Result in a unified theme of signage for the project.
The proposed signage will result in a unified theme of signage for the project. As noted,
the proposed monument sign has been designed to complement the homes within the subdivision
and nature of the area. The monument sign features mounted metal sign lettering and precast sign
paneling and incorporates high end materials, including brick and precast concrete. In addition,
26
Page 108 of 175
the proposed marketing signage will help expedite the development’s full occupancy and
ultimately facilitate development of the Subject Property with its highest and best use with an
additional housing option for Village residents and people looking to move to the community.
WHEREFORE, by reason of the foregoing, and based on any testimony that may be
proffered at the public hearing, the undersigned Petitioner requests the Village take the necessary
steps for i) approval of a Final Plat of Subdivision; ii) approval of a Special Use Permit for a
Planned Development; iii) approval of a Planned Development and associated deviations; iv)
approval of a Master Sign Plan; and v) approval of such other relief from the Village Code as may
be deemed necessary and appropriate to develop the Subject Property pursuant to the provisions
of the Village Code as depicted on the development plans submitted herewith.

1. Introduction
This report summarizes the methodologies, results, and findings of a traffic impact study
conducted by Kenig, Lindgren, O’Hara, Aboona, Inc. (KLOA, Inc.) for the proposed residential
development to be located in Hoffman Estates, Illinois.
This site, which is currently occupied by two former car dealership buildings, is located in the
southeast quadrant of the intersection of Higgins Road with Evanston Street and is proposed to
contain 72 townhomes, each having two-car garages and two-car driveway spaces, and 23 guest
parking spaces. Access to the site is proposed off Higgins Road via the existing three-quarter
access drive and off Evanston Street via a proposed full-movement access drive.
The purpose of this study was to examine background traffic conditions, assess the impact that the
proposed development will have on traffic conditions in the area, and determine if any roadway or
access improvements are necessary to accommodate traffic generated by the proposed
development. Figure 1 shows the location of the site in relation to the area roadway system. Figure
2 shows an aerial view of the site. The sections of this report present the following:

3. Traffic Characteristics of the Proposed Development
In order to properly evaluate future traffic conditions in the surrounding area, it was necessary to
determine the traffic characteristics of the proposed development, including the directional
distribution and volumes of traffic that it will generate.
Proposed Site and Development Plan
As proposed, the site will be redeveloped with a residential development containing 72
townhomes, each having two-car garages and two-car driveway spaces, and 23 guest parking
spaces. Access to the site will be provided via the following:
An existing three-quarter access drive located approximately 805 feet west of Roselle Road
and aligned with the Golf Center access road. This access drive provides one inbound lane
and one outbound lane. The outbound movement from this access drive is limited to right-
turns only and is under stop sign control.
A proposed full-movement access drive to be located approximately 480 feet south of
Higgins Road and will provide one inbound lane and one outbound lane with the outbound
movements under stop sign control. This access drive will be aligned with the Village Park
of Hoffman Estates apartment complex access drive located on the west side of Evanston
Street.
A copy of the site plan is included in the Appendix.
Directional Distribution
The directions from which residents of the proposed development will approach and depart the
site were estimated based on existing travel patterns, as determined from the traffic counts and the
location of the access drives. Figure 5 illustrates the directional distribution of the development-
generated traffic.
Estimated Site Traffic Generation
The number of peak hour vehicle trips estimated to be generated by the proposed development was
based on vehicle trip generation rates contained in Trip Generation Manual, 11th Edition, published
by the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE). Land-Use Code 215 (Single Family Housing -
Attached) rates were utilized. Table 6 shows the estimated vehicle trip generation for the weekday
morning and weekday evening peak hours and on a daily basis.

Trip Generation Comparison
It should be noted that the site was previously occupied by two car dealership buildings. The number
of peak hour vehicle trips estimated to be generated by the previous land use was estimated based on
vehicle trip generation rates contained in ITE Trip Generation Manual and are summarized in Table
7. As can be seen from Table 7, the proposed development is projected to generate approximately 60
percent less trips during the weekday morning peak hour and approximately 73 percent less trips
during the evening peak hour than the previous land use. Additionally, on a daily basis, the proposed
development will generated approximately 50 percent fewer trips.

4. Projected Traffic Conditions
The total projected traffic volumes include the existing traffic volumes, increase in background
traffic due to growth, and the traffic estimated to be generated by the proposed subject
development.
Development Traffic Assignment
The estimated weekday morning and evening peak hour traffic volumes that will be generated by
the proposed development were assigned to the roadway system in accordance with the previously
described directional distribution (Figure 5). The total new traffic assignment for the residential
development is illustrated in Figure 6.
Background (No-Build) Traffic Conditions
The existing traffic volumes (Figure 4) were increased by a regional growth factor to account for
the increase in existing traffic related to regional growth in the area (i.e., not attributable to any
particular planned development). Based on 2050 Average Daily Traffic (ADT) projections
provided by the Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning (CMAP) in a letter, the existing traffic
volumes were increased by an annually compounded growth rate of 0.46 percent per year for six
years totaling approximately three percent to represent Year 2031 no-build conditions. It should
be noted that the background traffic includes the traffic estimated to be generated by a proposed
commercial development to be located at 80 W. Higgins Road.
A copy of the CMAP 2050 projections letter is included in the Appendix.
Figure 7 illustrates the Year 2031 no-build traffic volumes.
Total Projected Traffic Volumes
The development-generated traffic (Figure 6) was added to the existing traffic volumes increased
by a regional growth factor to determine the Year 2031 total projected traffic volumes, as
illustrated in Figure 8. It should be noted that the traffic volumes that are currently being generated
by the existing site were removed from the roadway system.

5. Traffic Analysis and Recommendations
The following provides an evaluation conducted for the weekday morning and weekday evening
peak hours. The analysis includes conducting capacity analyses to determine how well the roadway
system and access drives are projected to operate and whether any roadway improvements or
modifications are required.
Traffic Analyses
Roadway and adjacent or nearby intersection analyses were performed for the weekday morning
and weekday evening peak hours for the existing, Year 2031 no-build, and future projected (Year
2031) traffic volumes.
The traffic analyses were performed using the methodologies outlined in the Transportation
Research Board’s Highway Capacity Manual (HCM), 7th Edition and analyzed using
Synchro/SimTraffic 12 computer software. The analysis for the signalized intersections of Higgins
Road with Roselle Road and Grand Canyon Parkway were accomplished utilizing actual cycle
lengths, phasings, and offsets. The analysis for the signalized intersection of Roselle Road with
Bode Road were accomplished utilizing field measured cycle lengths, phasings, and offsets.
The analyses for the unsignalized intersections determine the average control delay to vehicles at
an intersection. Control delay is the elapsed time from a vehicle joining the queue at a stop sign
(includes the time required to decelerate to a stop) until its departure from the stop sign and
resumption of free flow speed. The methodology analyzes each intersection approach controlled
by a stop sign and considers traffic volumes on all approaches and lane characteristics.
The ability of an intersection to accommodate traffic flow is expressed in terms of level of service,
which is assigned a letter from A to F based on the average control delay experienced by vehicles
passing through the intersection. The Highway Capacity Manual definitions for levels of service
and the corresponding control delay for signalized intersections and unsignalized intersections are
included in the Appendix of this report.
Summaries of the traffic analysis results showing the level of service and overall intersection delay
(measured in seconds) for existing, Year 2031 no-build, and Year 2031 total projected conditions
are presented in Tables 8 through 13. A discussion of the intersections follows. Summary sheets
for the capacity analyses are included in the Appendix.

Discussion and Recommendations
The following summarizes how the intersections are projected to operate and identifies any
roadway and traffic control improvements necessary to accommodate the development traffic.
Higgins Road with Roselle Road
The results of the capacity analysis indicate that overall, this signalized intersection currently
operates at Level of Service (LOS) D during the weekday morning and weekday evening peak
hours. All approaches operate at LOS D or better during the peak hours except for the southbound
approach that operates at LOS E during both peak hours.
Under Year 2031 no-build and total projected conditions, this intersection is projected to continue
operating at LOS D during the weekday morning and weekday evening peak hours with increases
in delay of less than two seconds over existing conditions. All approaches are projected to operate
at LOS E or better during the peak hours. It should be noted that the proposed development will
increase the traffic traversing this intersection by less than one percent during the peak hours. It
should also be noted that the maximum 95th percentile queue for the eastbound through movement
is projected to be approximately 185 feet during the weekday morning peak hour and will not
extend to the location of the site access drive. As such, this intersection has adequate reserve
capacity to accommodate the traffic estimated to be generated by the proposed development and
no roadway improvements or signal modifications will be required.
Higgins Road with Grand Canyon Parkway
The results of the capacity analysis indicate that overall, this signalized intersection currently
operates at LOS B during the weekday morning and weekday evening peak hours. All approaches
operate at LOS D or better during the peak hours except for the northbound approach which
operates at LOS E during both peak hours.
Under Year 2031 no-build and total projected conditions, this intersection is projected to continue
operating at LOS B during the weekday morning and weekday evening peak hours with increases
in delay of less than one second over existing conditions. All approaches are projected to continue
operating at the same existing level of service. It should be noted that the proposed development
will increase the traffic traversing this intersection by less than one percent during the peak hours.
As such, this intersection has adequate reserve capacity to accommodate the traffic estimated to
be generated by the proposed development and no roadway improvements or signal modifications
will be required.
Roselle Road with Bode Road
The results of the capacity analysis indicate that overall, this signalized intersection currently
operates at LOS A during the weekday morning peak hour and LOS B during the weekday evening
peak hour. All approaches operate at LOS D or better during the peak hours.
Residential Development
Hoffman Estates, Illinois 26
Page 168 of 175
Under Year 2031 no-build and total projected conditions, this intersection is projected to continue
operating at the same existing levels of service during both peak hours with increases in delay of
less than two seconds over existing conditions. All approaches are projected to continue operating
at the existing same level of service. It should be noted that the proposed development will increase
the traffic traversing this intersection by less than one percent during the peak hours. As such, this
intersection has adequate reserve capacity to accommodate the traffic estimated to be generated
by the proposed development and no roadway improvements or signal modifications will be
required.
Higgins Road with Evanston Street
The results of the capacity analysis indicate that currently the northbound approach currently
operates at LOS A during the weekday morning and weekday evening peak hours and will continue
to do so under Year 2031 no-build and total projected conditions with minimal increases in delay.
It should be noted that the 95th percentile queue for the northbound approach is projected to be one
to two vehicles during both peak hours and will not extend to the location of the proposed access
drive. As such, this intersection has sufficient reserve capacity to accommodate the traffic
estimated to be generated by the proposed development and no roadway improvements or traffic
control modifications will be required.
Higgins Road with Golf Center Access Road/Site Access Drive
The results of the capacity analysis indicate that currently the northbound and southbound
approaches operate at LOS B or better during the weekday morning and weekday evening peak
hours while the westbound and eastbound left-turn movements operate at LOS C or better during
both peak hours.
Under Year 2031 no-build conditions, all approaches and their critical movements are projected
to continue operating at the same existing level of service during both peak hours with increases
in delay of less than two seconds over existing conditions.
Under Year 2031 total projected conditions, the northbound and southbound approaches are
projected to operate at LOS B or better during the weekday morning and weekday evening peak
hours. The eastbound and westbound left-turn movements are projected to operate at LOS C or
better during both peak hours with 95th percentile queues of one to two vehicles during both peak
hours which will be accommodated via the existing left-turn lanes along Higgins Road. The total
projected traffic volumes were compared to the right-turn lane warrant criteria summarized in
Chapter 36 of the IDOT Bureau of Design and Environment (BDE) manual. The comparison
indicated that an exclusive right-turn lane will not be warranted along Higgins Road to serve this
access drive. As such, this intersection has sufficient reserve capacity to accommodate the traffic
estimated to be generated by the proposed development and will ensure efficient and flexible
access to the site is provided.

Bode Road with Evanston Street (West Intersection)
The results of the capacity analysis indicate that currently the northbound approach operates at
LOS B during the weekday morning and weekday evening peak hours while the westbound left-
turn movement operates at LOS A during both peak hours.
Under Year 2031 no-build and total projected conditions, the northbound approach and the
westbound left-turn movement are projected to continue operating at the same existing levels of
service during both peak hours with increases in delay of less than one second over existing
conditions. As such, this intersection has sufficient reserve capacity to accommodate the traffic
estimated to be generated by the proposed development and no roadway improvements or traffic
control modifications will be required.
Bode Road with Evanston Street (East Intersection)
The results of the capacity analysis indicate that currently the southbound approach operates at
LOS B during the weekday morning and weekday evening peak hours while the eastbound left-
turn movement operates at LOS A during both peak hours.
Under Year 2031 no-build and total projected conditions, the southbound approach is projected to
operate at LOS B/C during the weekday morning peak hour and LOS B during the weekday
evening peak hour while the eastbound left-turn movement is projected to operate at LOS A during
both peak hours. As such, this intersection has sufficient reserve capacity to accommodate the
traffic estimated to be generated by the proposed development and no roadway improvements or
traffic control modifications will be required.
Evanston Street with Village Park Access Drive/Site Proposed Access Drive
The results of the capacity analysis indicate that currently the eastbound approach and the
northbound left-turn movement operate at LOS A during the weekday morning and weekday
evening peak hours and will continue to do so under Year 2031 no-build conditions.
Under Year 2031 total projected conditions and with the full buildout of the proposed
development, a proposed full-movement access drive will become the fourth leg of this
intersection and will provide one inbound lane and one outbound lane with the outbound
movements under stop sign control.
The results of the capacity analysis indicate that all the approaches and their critical movements
are projected to operate at LOS A during the weekday morning and weekday evening peak hours.
The 95th percentile queues for the northbound and southbound left-turn movements are projected
to be one to two vehicles during both peak hours and will not interrupt the traffic flow along
Evanston Street. As such, this intersection has sufficient reserve capacity to accommodate the
traffic estimated to be generated by the proposed development and will ensure efficient and flexible
access to the site is provided.

6. Conclusion
Based on the preceding analyses and recommendations, the following conclusions have been
made:
As proposed, the existing site, which contains two former car dealership buildings, will be
redeveloped to provide 72 townhomes units.
The traffic that will be generated by the proposed development will be less than the
previous use on site.
The traffic that will be generated by the proposed residential development can be
accommodated by the existing area roadway system.
Access to the proposed development will be provided via the following:
o An existing three-quarter access drive located approximately 805 feet west of
Roselle Road and aligned with the Golf Center access road. This access drive
provides one inbound lane and one outbound lane. The outbound movement from
this access drive is limited to right-turns only and is under stop sign control.
o A proposed full-movement access drive located approximately 480 feet south of
Higgins Road that will provide one inbound lane and one outbound lane with the
outbound movements under stop sign control. This access drive will be aligned with
the Village Park of Hoffman Estates apartment complex located on the west side of
Evanston Street.
The access system will be adequate in accommodating the traffic projected to be generated
by the proposed residential development and will ensure efficient and flexible access to the
site.
