The Planning and Zoning Commission held a public hearing on August 21, 2024 and voted 6-0 in favor of recommending approval of this Special Use Permit. D.

Change Order to Previously Awarded Contract for Buffalo Creek Building A Flooring Replacement in the Amended Amount Not-to-Exceed $34,636 Summary: The Village Board awarded a contract to NPN Flooring for flooring replacement at Buffalo Creek Building A on May 20, 2024 in the amount not- to-exceed $34,196.40. During construction, a moisture test was conducted after removal of existing floor which found the levels of moisture in the concrete subfloor to be at a level too high to allow proper bonding of the new flooring to the concrete. The proposed change order results in a cost increase of $439.60 over the previously awarded amount of $34,196.40 with the final project cost to be in the amount not-to-exceed $34,636. Recommended Action: A motion to approve the Consent Agenda as presented. 7. NEW BUSINESS This agenda item includes matters coming to the Board of Trustees for discussion and possible action. A. Ordinance Granting Approval for a Planned Unit Development for OSK Residential Development Located at 670 South Old Rand Road (Ord. #2024- 09-585) (Trustee Marx) Summary: Developers at OSK Capital Partners request approval of a Planned Unit Development, Zoning Map Amendment and Preliminary Plat of Subdivision to develop a new residential community at 670 South Old Road Road. This application was originally submitted to the Village in 2022 for construction of 50 townhouses within 12 buildings but was denied by the Village Board due to concerns about too high of density, parking, wetlands disturbance, and structures within the creek area. 3 OSK Capital Partners has now resubmitted a revised development proposal consisting of 18 single family homes and 18 townhomes. The Planning and Zoning Commission considered this revised application at Public Hearings held on June 19 and July 17, 2024. At its meeting on July 17, 2024, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted 6- 0 to recommend approval of this revised development concept plan incorporating the conditions for approval provided by staff in its report. Recommended Action: A motion to approve Ordinance #2024-09-586 Granting Approval of a Planned Unit Development, Amendment to the Official Zoning Map, Preliminary Plat, Development Concept Plan, Special Use Permits, and Modifications to the Zoning and Land Development Code for a Residential Subdivision at 670 South Old Rand Road. B. Ordinance Approving an Increase in the Non-Home Rule Municipal Retailers; and Municipal Service Occupation Tax (Ord. #2024-09-586) (Mayor Poynton) Summary: The provided ordinance enacts a 0.5% increase to the Village’s Non- Home Rule (NHR) Sales Tax, increasing the rate to a total of 1.0%, effective January 1, 2025. A recent change to state statute now allows non-home rule municipalities to adopt a local sales tax without requiring referendum approval. The Village previously adopted a 0.5% NHR sales tax in 2011, which has funded the Village’s road program since. The proposed rate increase will generate an additional $2.5 million annually, which will be used to fund Lake Michigan project-related expenses and debt service. The revenue from this sales tax will cover one-third of the project’s costs, reducing the reliance on future water rate increases for utility customers to fund the project. Approximately 40% of retail purchases at Lake Zurich establishments that are subject to sales tax are made by non-residents. Considering this proposed increase in the NHR sales tax rate, non-residents will contribute approximately 15% of the cost to bring Lake Michigan water into the Village. Upon the adoption of this ordinance, staff will prepare an ordinance to reduce the scheduled Lake Michigan project water rate increases planned for 2025-2028, in accordance with the previously-discussed project funding strategy. Recommend Action: A motion to approve Ordinance #2024-09-587 Approving an Increase in the Village of Lake Zurich Non-Home Rule Municipal Retailers’ Occupation Tax and Non-Home Rule Municipal Service Occupation Tax. 4 8.
