Vice-Chair Flint read the Plan Commission procedures and asked if anyone other than the petitioner intended to cross examine and, Village of Lombard Page 1 Plan Commission Minutes October 19, 2020 hearing none, he proceeded with the petition. Mr. Ludwig presented the petition. He stated that Lombard Veterinary Hospital has been operating on St. Charles Road since 1959. The St. Charles Road site sustained damage during a storm event in August 2020. The business is looking to move to a temporary location at 1300 S. Main while repairs are completed on the St. Charles Road building. Mr. Ludwig noted that the animal hospital has operated on St. Charles Road without disturbing nearby residents or property owners. The petitioner will undertake internal renovations at the 1300 S. Main site, but no significant exterior renovations are planned. There will be some limited overnight kenneling of animals if they require medical services, but otherwise boarding of animals will be limited. Vice-Chair Flint asked if any person would like to speak in favor or against this petition, or for public comment. Hearing none, he asked for the staff report. Vice-Chair Flint asked if staff had received any comment from members of the public prior to the meeting. Ms. Ganser said no public comment had been received. Ms. Ganser presented the staff report, which was submitted to the public record in its entirety. The petitioner proposes to operate an animal hospital and kennel in the B4A Roosevelt Road Corridor District. The subject property is a tenant space in a strip shopping center. The petitioner, Lombard Veterinary Hospital, is proposing to use the space for a temporary location while they complete reconstruction efforts on their permanent location at 244 E. St. Charles Road, which sustained major damage during a storm in August 2020. Staff has reviewed the petitioner’s request and finds the proposed animal hospital and kennel will not create any undue impacts on neighboring properties. There are other veterinary hospitals in similar business districts within the Village, and the petitioner will make interior improvements designed to minimize impacts to other tenants in the building. The petitioner may fence in a grassy area to the south of the building to provide a space for dogs to be walked while attended by an employee or pet owner. The fencing will meet fencing provisions in Village Code and will require a permit. Staff supports the requested conditional use. Village of Lombard Page 2 Plan Commission Minutes October 19, 2020 Vice-Chair Flint asked if there were any questions of the staff report. Hearing none, he opened the meeting for comments among the Commissioners. On a motion by Commissioner Sweetser, and a second by Commissioner Burke, the Plan Commission voted 6-0 to recommend that the Village Board approve the petition associated with PC 20-25, subject to the following five (5) conditions: 1. That the petitioner shall develop the site in accordance with plans submitted as part of this request; 2.

That any fencing installed in the grassy area to the south of the tenant space shall meet Village Code provisions for fencing; 4. That the petitioner shall satisfactorily address all comments noted within the Inter-Departmental Review Committee Report; and This relief shall be valid for a period of one year from the date of approval of the ordinance.

DuPage Avenue, Gregory Boxing DuPage Your Plan Commission transmits for your consideration its approval recommendation regarding the above-referenced petition. The petitioner requests a zoning conditional use pursuant to Section 155.420(C)(18) of the Lombard Village Code to allow for a learning center/athletic training center to operate on the subject property located within the Industrial District. The petitioner requests a waiver of first reading. (DISTRICT #1) Sworn in to present the petition were: Jennifer Ganser, Assistant Director of Community Development; and Joe Phalen, the petitioner. Vice-Chair Flint read the Plan Commission procedures and asked if anyone other than the petitioner intended to cross examine and, Village of Lombard Page 3 Plan Commission Minutes October 19, 2020 hearing none, he proceeded with the petition. Mr. Phalen stated that he is applying for a conditional use to open an athletic training center. He noted that he already owns another gym in Des Plaines. This would be a second location.

Ms. Ganser presented the staff report, which was submitted to the public record in its entirety. The petitioner proposes to operate an athletic training facility for boxing in the Limited Industrial Zoning District. The business would be considered a learning center which is listed as a conditional use. Staff has reviewed the petition and does not believe the proposed use will create any undue impacts on neighboring properties. The learning center is similar to other learning centers that have been approved in the Industrial district. Staff finds the petition meets the standards for conditional uses and recommends approval of the petition. Vice-Chair Flint asked if staff had received any comment from members of the public prior to the meeting. Ms. Ganser said no public comment had been received. Vice-Chair Flint opened the meeting for comments among the Commissioners. Commissioner Burke said he had no comments and supports the petition. Commissioner Sweetser noted that according to the materials submitted that there will be classes at 4:30 pm for children and requested the end time of the class and how many participates and if there will be difference in operation when COVID is over. Mr. Phalen responded that the club is private and open to all that are interested, and the application process involves a one on one interview with a coach. All participants have their temperatures checked upon entering the facility and the activities involved are inherently six feet or more apart. The training space is approximately 4200 square feet which allows for 15 trainees.

Roosevelt Road on the subject property located within the Roosevelt Road Corridor B4A District.
