Malec gave a brief history of the property. The subject property is zoned downtown residential. C. Malec presented a history of the rezoning of the property as part of the overall of the zoning map in 2012 and how it applies to the subject property. Any new businesses coming into the space would need to apply for a use variation due to the residential zoning of the shopping mall. There have been a handful of these requests granted. Petitioner Presentation Stephanie Platenchi of Rocky Blue Grooming was sworn in to speak. She gave a history and background of the business. Ms. Plantenchi gave the Commission a copy of their business plan. Public Commentary T. Roswick opened the floor to public commentary. Jovani Cruz of Faded is another business tenant of the building. Mr. Cruz stated that he felt that the need for grooming is needed in the area and he felt it would be a good fit for the shopping center. Nicky Sullivan, resident, was sworn in to speak. Ms. Sullivan shared her experience with the business. She has followed the grooming business with her dog in each of their new Page 6 of 28 locations. She praised the groomers and is looking forward to seeing them come back to Mundelein. T. Roswick closed the floor to public commentary. Commission Discussion J. Holden asked about the comments made by the building department regarding the request to add a fire alarm. C. Malec stated that code enforcement requested information on how animal waste will be handled. The petitioner is not planning to hold animals for extended periods of time, so there will not be a need for much waste management, and will not be walking dogs are part of their service. Any accidents will be property disposed of in the toilet on site. If permitted, they would be willing to install a dog waste station outside of the facility. K. Anderson clarified that this will be an appointment only business and there is not a plan to have multiple dogs at a time on-site to reduce the noise. The Commission was in support of the application. Use Variation Request J. Holden moved, seconded by K. Anderson, a Motion to recommend Approval of a use variation to Table 20.36-1 of Section 20.36.020 to permit a Personal Services Establishment (Pet Groomer) in the C-5-R Downtown Residential zoning district at 143 North Seymour Avenue, Mundelein, Illinois, including the Findings of Fact as presented.

Holden moved, seconded by K. Teehan, a Motion to open Public Hearing PZ2026- 0001. Motion passed 6-0. RESULT: Passed [Yes 6, No 0, Abstained 0] MOVER: Commissioner Jennifer Holden SECONDER: Commissioner Kevin Teehan AYES: Terry Roswick, Kevin Anderson, Jennifer Holden, Steven Petti, Kevin Teehan, Tim Wilson NAYS: None ABSTAIN: None Staff Presentation J. Marvin gave a brief history of the subject property and the request of the petitioner. The property is located withing the Manufacturing Mixed-Use Zoning District. The petitioner is requesting to run a health club facility in the M-MU zoning district. T. Wilson asked how this would differ from the Padel Clube proposal. J. Marvin stated that the use is lightly different as one hosts tournaments and the other is individualized without group fitness classes. Petitioner Presentation Justin Macke of Ryse Athletic Club was sworn in. Mr. Maki stated that the currently Page 8 of 28 runs a 27,000 square foot facility in Gurnee and has been in operation since 2020. The currently location is at maximum capacity, so they are looking to open an additional facility in order to fit the needs of their current membership and allow members to space out more. K. Anderson asked if there was a reason why a commercial district would not be able to meet their needs. Mr. Maki stated that one of the spaces they are looking for is an outdoor space, which would not be available in a commercial area. K. Anderson asked if they will be opening this as a second facility and keeping their original in Gurnee. Mr. Maki confirmed that they plan to operate both locations. T. Roswick asked what the hours of operation would be. Mr. Maki stated that the facility is open 24/7. K. Anderson inquired about the plans if it was a full buildout. Mr. Maki confirmed the plan to do a full buildout of the space. K. Anderson further asked if they plan to purchase the property or lease. Mr. Maki stated that he plans to purchase the building. Public Commentary T. Roswick opened the floor to public commentary. There was no public commentary. T. Roswick closed the floor to public commentary. Commission Discussion J. Holden asked if there would be another point in the process to trigger any conditions, or if any conditions would need to be made entirely tonight. C. Malec stated that this would be the one time to impose suggested conditions on the use. The Commission discussed the transition of the year of the manufacturing district in this area. They also discussed the length of time this property has been on the market despite not having many industrial properties available. This property has not been able to be filled for industrial use in a year's time, suggesting that the current facility, as is may not meet the needs of the current industrial needs. Use Variation Request J. Holden moved, seconded by S. Petti, a Motion to recommend approval of a variation to Table 20.40-1 of Section 20.40.020 to permit a health club facility in the M-MU Manufacturing Mixed-Use Zoning District at 333 Washington Boulevard, including the findings of fact as written, with the following conditions: Page 9 of 28 • No outdoor noise-generating activities, including fitness activities, classes, programming, or organized use of the outdoor turf and area, may begin before 8:00 AM and must conclude by 8:00 PM each day. • No amplified sound, speakers, or music shall be permitted in any outdoor area.

Erin Swanson, Recording Secretary Page 11 of 28 To: Commission Members From: Isabel Guadarrama, Senior Planner Amanda Orenchuk, Director of Community Development For: Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting of May 20, 2026 Subject: Public Hearing - PZ2026-0004 - 240 Banbury Road - Variation Attachments: 1. Location Map 2. Variation Application Background: Property Owners Shaun Cepican and Danielle Beilfuss are requesting approval of variations to allow outdoor enhancements within the required side yard setbacks at 240 Banbury Road. The property currently contains a pool, deck, and patio located in the rear of the home. These existing accessory structures encroach into the required side yard setbacks but are considered legal nonconforming structures, as they have existed since at least the 1990s. The Property Owners recently submitted a building permit application to expand the pool patio area. The proposed project includes expansion of the patio areas, replacement of portions of the existing brick patio with mulch and landscaping, and additional site and landscape improvements intended to enhance the overall appearance of the property. Staff determined that certain proposed improvements would expand the existing nonconformities, as some of the accessory structures are not permitted to encroach into the required rear and side yard setbacks, and therefore variations are required. The subject property is located in the R-2 Single Family Residential Zoning District, which requires a minimum interior side yard setback of 15 feet and a minimum rear yard setback of 30 feet. The property has a triangular lot configuration with a large centrally located pool, which limits the available area for additional accessory structures and enhancements. The application materials include photographs of the existing conditions and proposed improvements. Variation: Section 20.52.060 of the Mundelein Zoning Ordinance prohibits patios from encroaching into the required interior side yard setbacks. As shown on the plans, the existing patio encroaches into both Page 12 of 28 interior side yards, and the proposed expansion would further increase the encroachment into those setbacks. The proposed equipment pad would also expand into the northern interior side yard setback. Therefore, variations are required for both improvements. Comprehensive Plan: The following policies from the Housing chapter of the Comprehensive Plan are generally applicable to the proposed project: • New residential developments should be designed to appropriately incorporate existing high- quality/valued environmental areas and features. • Enforce property maintenance does for residential properties. • Ensure residential areas are adequately screened/buffered from incompatible adjacent non- residential uses and activities. • Ensure stable existing housing through regular, active code enforcement and preventative maintenance programs. Department Comments: There is one outstanding comment for permitting from the Engineers: - The applicant will need to demonstrate that drainage is conveyed along the side yards, to Banbury Road, and that the allowable site impervious coverages do not trigger stormwater detention per Section 300 of the WDO. Public Comments: There are no outstanding comments at this time. Analysis: The Village supports beautification and reinvestment efforts in all zoning districts. The submitted before-and-after images demonstrate a significant visual improvement to the property, and the proposed enhancements would create a more functional and enjoyable backyard area for the Property Owners. Staff also recognizes that the subject property has a unique triangular lot configuration, which limits the available area for accessory structures and outdoor improvements. Despite the requested variations, the proposed improvements would remain compliant with the maximum impervious surface coverage requirement of 50%. The primary concern identified by staff is the amount of proposed mulch area shown on the plans. Staff recommends a condition requiring the Property Owners to submit a final landscape plan that incorporates the plantings shown in the submitted 3D renderings before the next Village Board meeting. Mulch alone is not as effective in promoting stormwater infiltration and absorption into the soil. Therefore, staff recommends that adequate landscaping and plantings be maintained on-site to support drainage and overall site sustainability. Recommendation: Page 13 of 28 Motion to recommend approval/denial of a variation from Section 20.52.060 for the property located at 240 Banbury Road, subject to the condition that the Property Owners submit a final landscape plan prior to the Village Board meeting.

Em a i I Ema1 1 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ __ Petitioner Status: [Kl Owner D Lessee D Contract Purchaser SECTION OF ZONING ORDINANCE: _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ __ DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED ZONING VARIATION (Attach additional pages, if necessary) The subject property is a uniquely shaped triangular lot with a narrow rear apex, creating practical limitations on usable rear yard space that are not typical of rectangular parcels in the zoning district. The property currently contains non-conforming improvements within the required fifteen-foot (15') rear yard setback, including portions of the house, existing pool deck and a paver patio that extends to the rear property line. The Applicant requests a variation from the 15-foot setback requirement to allow a modest extension of the existing pool deck, construction of a required exterior door landing, and installation of a pool equipment pad within the setback. As part of the project, the existing paver patio that currently extends to the property line will be removed and replaced with landscaped planting beds, increasing pervious surface area and improving drainage and aesthetics. While limited encroachments are requested, the overall redesign reduces existing non-conformities and results in a more functional and cohesive rear yard. The practical difficulty arises from the irregular triangular configuration of the lot. The requested variation is reasonable in scope, will not alter the essential character of the neighborhood, and will not negatively impact adjacent properties. Rather, it represents an overall improvement to existing conditions. Page 3 of 10 Page 16 of 28 March 19, 2026 Page 1 of 3 STANDARDS FOR GRANTING A VARIATION: 240 Banbury Rd., Mundelein IL 60060 In evaluating the proposed variation, the Zoning Administrator, Planning and Zoning Commission and Village Board will make findings based on the standards imposed by Section 20.16.020 of the Zoning Ordinance. Please provide a detailed response to each of the following criteria (attach additional pages, if necessary): a. The strict application of the terms of this Ordinance will result in undue hardship. Response: The existing property currently has a swimming pool installed by a previous owner that may or may not have been installed while current zoning restrictions were in effect. The existing swimming pool has surrounding patio areas with portions that are located outside the current setback constraints. Some parts of the patio areas are dysfunctional due to condition and design, and with some areas affecting proper drainage to the point of threatening the home's structural foundation. The intent of all proposed improvements is to increase the functionality and aesthetics of the existing swimming pool and outdoor living area, and to address the drainage. To properly address all issues which include modified foundation drainage, proper landings at existing entry doors with a layout designed to accommodate the foundation drainage, and functional poolside patio space. The current design eliminates a significant existing patio area that sits directly adjacent to a large portion of the backyard property line and allows for landscape plantings that will benefit the proposed outdoor living space and the neighboring properties. With all of this said, and with regards to the question of "undue hardship", the new owner bought this property for reasons which included an existing swimming pool. They saw the pool had large expanses of existing patio and deck space and saw that the entire area would need to be modified to improve functionality and value. If the proposed improvements are not allowed, the drainage cannot be properly addressed, functional door landings cannot be installed, a functional patio area cannot be installed, and the existing excessive patio area which far exceeds the current setback area will remain in place and with no buffer/setback to serve the property and neighboring properties. b. The plight of the owner is due to unique circumstances. Response: Because the lot is pie shaped and narrows to a single point at the far end of the backyard, the formulated setback lines take up far more space than an average rectangular lot. Also, because of the pie shaped lot, the dimension of the lot width at the 30' front yard setback used to calculate the side yard setbacks is much wider than the average rectangular lot. Page 17 of 28 March 19, 2026 Page 2 of 3 c. The variation, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality Response: The locality appears to be a mixture of moderate architectural home styles. The proposed design is clearly illustrated in the drawings and does not include any extreme variation of color or style to what is found in the essential character of the locality. By removing the existing decks and extensive paver patio, the proposed improvements will be significantly more in character to the required setback rules. The Zoning Administrator, Planning and Zoning Commission, and Village Board, in making its findings, may further inquire into the following evidentiary issues, as well as any others deemed appropriate. Please provide a detailed response to each of the following criteria (attach additional pages, if necessary): a. The particular physical surroundings, shape, ortopographical conditions of the specific property impose a particular hardship upon the owner, as distinguished from a mere inconvenience, if the strict letter of regulations were to be carried out. Response: It seems as though increasing the appeal and value of neighborhood properties benefits all property owners of the locality. As pointed out in previous responses, because of the unusual shape of the lot, and because of the existing home layout and yard conditions, it will be difficult for the owner to make necessary improvements that will have an impact on the quality and value of the home and the values of the neighboring homes. b. The alleged difficulty or hardship has not been created by any person presently having a proprietary interest in the property in question. Response: The difficulty was created by the original community master plan developer and by the previous property owners. The current owner purchased the property only with the intent to make improvements and was not informed of constraints that would permit making the property functional. c. The granting of the variation will not be detrimental to the public welfare in the neighborhood in which the property is located. Response: As noted in other responses, it is our belief the improvements will only benefit neighboring properties and the entire locality. Page 18 of 28 March 19, 2026 Page 3 of 3 d. The proposed variation will not impair an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent property, substantially increase congestion in the public streets, increase the danger of fire, endanger the public safety, or impair property values within the neighborhood. Response: None of these concerns will result from the proposed improvements. e. The proposed variation is consistent with the spirit and intent of this Ordinance and Village land use policies. Response: Because the proposed improvements are increasing the space between the property lines and patio areas, and because of the adding of space for privacy and ornamental plantings along the property lines, the variation will allow for a result that is more consistent with the spirit and intent of the Ordinance and Village land use policies. f. The value of the property in question will be substantially reduced if permitted to be used only under the conditions allowed by the regulations governing the district in which it is located. Response: If left in the current condition, or if the design is altered to accommodate the current constraints, the value of the property will be much lower than if the improvements are allowed. Existing doors will become unusable and there will be inadequate room for a functional patio. This point has also been made in previous responses.
