MOTION CARRIED B. 24168 North Midlothian Road - Avery Ridge Subdivision (PZC 2018-8) Public hearing to reconsider a request for Development Concept Plan approval for the 35-lot subdivision known as Avery Ridge within an R-5 Residential Zoning District. The application includes a request for approval of zoning entitlements and modifications to the zoning and land development code for the residential subdivision. Detailed information is contained within the accompanying staff report and all exhibits submitted by the applicant. Applicant – M/I Homes Director Saher introduced the project and provided background information on why it was be- fore the PZC again. The Applicant went before the Village Board on October 1, 2018 to request consideration of an Annexation Agreement at a public hearing. At that time the Applicant pro- posed minor changes to the preliminary site plan to the garage/storage building on Lot 4. It was also determined that certain lots required modifications to the zoning code that had been over- looked by staff during their initial review of the subdivision. Staff recommended the project be reconsidered by the PZC through the public hearing process to obtain approval of the modifica- tions. The Village Board will need to consider and vote on final approval of their plat of annex- ation, zoning classification and development concept plan. The layout and lot numbers remain the same. Greg Collins, M/I Homes, concurred with Director Saher’s summary and provided additional information. He said pages 11 and 12 of the Staff Report provided detailed information on the changes. He narrated a PowerPoint presentation and reviewed various exhibits including an aer- ial view of the site plan and discussed demolition of the existing barn, which will be replaced by a smaller structure. The setback was changed from 30 feet to 15 feet for the accessory struc- ture. The curve radius was changed from 150 to 60 feet. Director Saher said the Fire Prevention Bureau did not object to the reduced turning radius. Mr. Collins reviewed the elevations, which were enhanced to bring a higher level of detail to the architectural elements. and offer five op- tions for each model. Director Saher said the revised elevations will assist in reducing monotony or repetitiveness.

MOTION CARRIED RECESS: The meeting was recessed from 7:25 - 7:30 p.m. Commissioner Schultz left the meet- ing at 7:25 p.m. STAFF REPORT: Comprehensive Plan Update: Director Saher introduced Paul Perrano, a commercial real estate broker and resident at Sommer- set Townhomes, who expressed an interest in the PZC meetings. Mr. Perrano said he plans to at- tend the meetings and offered his assistance if needed. Director Saher gave a presentation on the proposed comprehensive plan update. The changes rec- ommend a shift in emphasis from growth and expansion policies to include growth, expansion, and a thorough review of infill development issues. He said the main points are Main Street (downtown) development, review is of Village owned-property (Block A, Block B, and Block D), use of PUD and the development process, and changes to the Designated Land use Map and spe- cific land use. The Main Street development review would provide general recommendations including the op- tion for the Village to form partnerships with privately-owned properties. Another option would be to convey these properties to private owners, which would preclude the Village from taking any action on these properties. Director Saher said the use of the PUD and the development process allow for creative planning and site design and provides an opportunity for the village to receive donations and/or amenities for public use in exchange for zoning concessions that may be neces- sary to fit a particular parcel and/or use. Revisions to the PUD process will apply to commercial
