8. Project Narrative
9. Preliminary Planned Development Application
10. Legal Notice
Sworn in staff - Mr. Vyverberg
Sworn in Petitioner - CJ Johnson
Mr. Johnson explains that he is proposing a 9-Unit residential development at
874-912 Quentin Road. It will be ranch-style units with separate driveways to the
units and additional guest parking within the development. He states that he has
met with the neighbors, adjacent to the proposed development, to discuss the
project. They have been working on slight modifications to the preliminary plan to
address their concerns regarding the rear yard setback.
Chairman Dwyer requests specifics regarding engineering and grading.
Mr. Vyverberg provides a summary of the property and reviews the previous
requests for this vacant property. He presents a zoning map and aerial of the
current property conditions at 874-912 Quentin Road.
He provides a site plan and references a contour map of the existing grading
conditions. He presents preliminary elevations, with grading. Mr. Vyverberg
states the village engineer reviewed the conceptual and preliminary engineering
plans did not identify anything initially at the preliminary planned development.
The final Village Engineer comments and recommendations will come through
Final Planned Development, moving forward. Final engineering would be
completed if preliminary planned development is approved. Volume control is
required as part of the watershed management ordinance requirements (MWRD).
VILLAGE OF PALATINE Page 2
Minutes Plan Commission November 15, 2022
Chairman Dwyer asks if water detention would be at the south end of the
property.
Mr. Vyverberg states that volume control is required (MWRD). Detention is not
required, but the village has the right to impose if needed. The Final Engineering
plans are not required, at this time. At this time, there are no known instances of
historic structural flooding in the area. It could be a circumstance where only
volume control would be required and a separate detention would not be required
by the village.
Mr. Vyverberg clarifies the curb cuts for this property and explains that the
preliminary plan identifies two unified curb cuts. Petitioner and their engineer
also identified additional parking within the development for off street parking.
He explains that each unit has two car garages, two parking spaces available on
the driveway pad and 9 guest spaces throughout the development.
Mr. Vyverberg explains that utilities and infrastructure are existing and the new
proposed development would tie into the existing. The water line is on the east
side of Quentin and sanitary and storm are available, proximate to the subject
property.
Mr. Vyverberg presents a preliminary floor plan and elevations and explains the
design plan and style. He discussed the preliminary landscaping plan and states
that arborvitae would be used for screening of properties to the west. If any
existing trees could be maintained, they would be included in the conditions for
the final landscaping plan.
Mr. Friedman inquires whether the village would apply any monotony code to this
type of development.
Mr. Vyverberg states that it would be considered.
Mr. Johnson talks about the plan and the variations to each building and explains
that all of the colors would be maintained.
Mr. Fedota questions the entrances and inquires the reason for 2 separate
drives.
Mr. Johnson explains that the intent was to allow for privacy and deter traffic from
flowing through the development. Each curb cut serves its’ own set of buildings.
Mr. Kolososki states it is also a solution for snow plowing. Snow would be
plowed into the area separating the two streets.
Mr. Bettenhausen questions the construction of the volume control detention
pond.
Mr. Johnson explains it would be covered and would be like a French drain.
Mr. Bettenhausen asks about the outlet for the pond.
Mr. Johnson states it would be sized as per the engineer requirements.
Mr. Bettenhausen asks if any landscaping is proposed for the east property line
along Quentin.
VILLAGE OF PALATINE Page 3
Minutes Plan Commission November 15, 2022
Mr. Johnson states the area will be burmed and landscaped and a preliminary
plan has been submitted.
Mr. Kolososki asks if the roof peaks would be consistent.
Mr. Johnson states that the grade difference would cause some slight differences
but, generally, they would be.
Mr. Vyverberg reads two opposing resident letters that were received via email
and reads them into the proceedings.
Chairman Dwyer requests confirmation from Mr. Johnson that the concerns will
be addressed. Mr. Johnson confirms that they would be.
Sarah Murphy, resident of 925 N. Franklin Avenue is sworn in.
Ms. Murphy states that her concern is the minimal 40’ set back and the reduction
from the original 60’ set back that was envisioned. She states that a minimal set
back will have an impact on their homes and the loss of privacy. She requests
that the developer work to maximize the rear set back and the height of the
development. Ms. Murphy states her home is the closest to this development
and a 40’ set back only gives a 90’ door to door distance to the residences. Ms.
Murphy provides examples of other developments and their setbacks which are
significantly higher. Ms. Murphy asks for two conditions to be considered. One
is to maximize the rear setback and the second is to consider the elevation of the
units which is 10-12’ above their homes.
Chairman Dwyer asks Mr. Vyverberg to clarify the minimum setback for R2.
Mr. Vyverberg states that the minimum setback for R2 is 40’.
Mr. Friedman asks Ms. Murphy what her set back is.
Ms. Murphy states it should be a 50’ set back but is closer to 48’.
Resident: Christine Lagosia, resident of 835 N. Franklin Avenue is sworn in.
Ms. Lagosia states her concern regarding the grading. She is concerned that
improper grading would cause flooding to her home. She also is concerned
about any retention ponds for this development and states that any type of pond
would be a danger. Ms. Lagosia cites a tragedy in Elk Grove Village that she
witnessed and ultimately was a law suit. She also believes setbacks allow for
any errors after foundations are poured and an increase in the setback would
cover these types of errors.
Mr. Johnson states that there will not be a retention pond and there will not be a
pool of water. There may be a detention pond but this will be determined once
final engineering is completed. He reiterates that there will not be a retention
pond.
Chairman Dwyer states there will be volume control on the property and there
may be water puddling after a storm.
Resident - Julie Picchiotti, resident of 939 N. Franklin Avenue is sworn in.
Questions the elevation of the subject property and the impact it will have on her
house. She would like a better understanding as to whether there will be water
VILLAGE OF PALATINE Page 4
Minutes Plan Commission November 15, 2022
drained to her property.
Mr. Johnson states that they are required to pitch any water drainage onto the
subject development and water will not drain to any surrounding properties.
Mr. Fedota asks if decks are an option for the new development property.
Mr. Johnson states that no deck structure will encroach into the 40’ setback.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Since its incorporation into the Village, the Subject Property has maintained a
variety of land uses. Given its direct adjacency to single-family residential uses
on along the west side of the property and multi-family uses directly across
Poplar Street, an identified land use for the property has not been established,
notwithstanding the unimplemented memory care use. The proposed density is
appropriate for the land use and the plans would reduce the number of existing
access points to the site. With an established parking ration of 5 spaces/unit,
Staff does not have any existing parking concerns with the proposal. Also, the
height of the ranch-style homes, should not impact the surrounding residential
properties.
Therefore, Staff recommends approval of the Preliminary Planned Development,
subject to the following conditions:
1. All extra agency permits shall be submitted in a manner acceptable to the
Village Engineer.
2. The Engineers Estimate of Probable Cost (EEOPC) shall be submitted in a
manner acceptable to the Village Engineer.
3. Review fees, based upon the finally accepted EEOPC shall be submitted in
a manner acceptable to the Village Engineer.
4. The Final Architectural Plans shall be revised in a manner acceptable to the
Director of Community Development/Planning and Zoning, including the
final material quantities and distribution.
5. The Final Engineering Plans shall be submitted and revised in a manner
acceptable to the Village Engineer.
6. The Final Landscaping Plan shall be revised in a manner acceptable to the
Director of Planning and Zoning. The plan should review the ability to
maintain any of the existing healthy trees within the property.
7. A Public Improvement letter of credit in an amount of 115% of the approved
EEOPC, for said public improvements, shall be submitted in a manner
acceptable to the Village Engineer.
8. A Planned Development Letter of Credit in the amount of $90,000 -
($10,000/unit, per Article 14 of the Zoning Ordinance) shall be submitted in
a manner acceptable to the Director of Planning and Zoning.
VILLAGE OF PALATINE Page 5
Minutes Plan Commission November 15, 2022
9. If required, a Final Plat of Subdivision shall be submitted in a manner
acceptable to the Village Engineer and Director of Planning and Zoning. As
determined by the Village Attorney, the HOA declarations shall be
submitted and revised in a manner acceptable to the Village Attorney.
10. A construction management plan shall be submitted in a manner
acceptable to the Director of Planning and Zoning and the Village Engineer
and shall outline the proposed development schedule and identify the
material delivery routes and proposed parking areas for the contractors, in
conjunction with the building permit application submission.
Mr. Noonan made a motion to close the public hearing; seconded by Mr.
Kolososki.
DISCUSSION:
Mr. Noonan states that the petitioner has utilized the property.
Mr. Fedota states it is a reasonable development and is a good use of the land.
Mr. Kolososki states that the petitioner, Mr. Johnson, appears to have done his
homework and the ranch style quad homes would be ideal for this property.
Chairman Dwyer states that they have taken into consideration the resident’s
concerns and has been cooperative in addressing their concerns.
Mr. Friedman asks if they would want to add the set back to the conditions.
Mr. Noonan made a motion to accept Case #22-50 with a rear setback
increase. 2nd by Mr. Kolososki
The motion was unanimously approved.
Chairman Dwyer summarized that this request has met the standards and
was unanimously approved by a vote of 6-0. This will tentatively go to
Village Council on December 12th, 2022.
Communication:
Village Council reviewed the proposed apartment complex at Brockway and
Palatine Rd and was unanimously approved.

III. PUBLIC HEARING
1. 101 W. Palatine Road and 2-12 S. Brockway Street - Preliminary Planned
Development to allow an 18-unit apartment building and roof tenant amenity
area. - Recommended to Approve
Chairman Dwyer read the notice of public hearing that was published in the Daily
Herald on October 3rd, 2022 and mailed to the owners of the surrounding
properties.
The following petitioner’s exhibits were introduced:
Minutes Acceptance: Minutes of Oct 18, 2022 7:00 PM (Approval of Minutes)
1. Architectural Plans
2. Preliminary Planned Development Application
3. Plat of Survey
4. Legal Notice
Sworn in Staff: Mr. Vyverberg
Sworn in Petitioner: Mr. Tinaglia & Mr. Vu Trieu (Northshore Development
Group)
Chairman Dwyer opens the meeting and explains this meeting is regarding the
Preliminary Planned Development approval to construct a new 3-story, 18 unit
apartment building located at the corner of W. Palatine Road & S. Brockway
Street. The 3-story apartment building will have an inset amenity area on top of
the roof, which includes a trellised outdoor resident space.
Mr. Tinaglia explains that the initial concept that was prepared for this area was
taller, bigger, and denser and had less parking. With guidance and direction
from Staff, the new plan should meet the requirements of the downtown
guidelines. The Subject Property is 132 x 132 - approximately 17,500 square
feet. He presents a preliminary plan for a 3 story bldg. with 1 st floor enclosed
parking that will contain 34 parking spaces, including 2 handicap parking spaces.
The first floor will also include the lobby area, an amenity space in the northeast
corner of the building, the elevator lobby, stairwells and a trash room. The first
floor is basic parking use and the lobby/amenity space. The 2 nd and 3rd floors
consists of nine two bedroom apartments on each floor, with either a one bath or
two bath option. He also explains that the plan includes a trellis roof-top patio
area for residents to gather or barbeque. He provides a preliminary vision for the
building and displayed brick samples to view. The concept is to provide a
modern version of an old building, which will fit the culture of the surrounding
area.
He further states that apartment buildings have become very popular, due to the
fact that individuals no longer want to provide large down payments or have
mortgages. They would like to relocate, without being tied down to one property
for 30 years. He states that people are attracted to luxury apartments with nice
VILLAGE OF PALATINE Page 2
Packet Pg. 3

Minutes Plan Commission October 18, 2022
amenities. He also explains that the garage and main entrance will face
Brockway Street. The entrances are planned at the Brockway Street location,
due to the traffic on Palatine Road. He addresses the site plan and shows that
they plan the building to be set back 5 feet south of the property line. This will
provide added safety, but will also allow landscaping improvements.
Mr. Kolososki asks what the dimension is from the lot line to the curb.
Mr. Tinaglia states that he is not sure about the dimension but speculates it is
about 10’.
Mr. Kolososki comments that the sidewalk is a great idea. He states that it would
be nice to have a recess at the front for a spacial view.
Minutes Acceptance: Minutes of Oct 18, 2022 7:00 PM (Approval of Minutes)
Mr. Tinaglia states that the plans address the problem and have it recessed at
the south and west, to protect the rights of the neighbors. To recess it at any
other locations reduces the square footage.
Mr. Kolososki states that he likes the open air garage and feels he has done a
nice job on a tough site.
Mr. Friedman states that the nature of the open air garage is largely supported by
the large openings on the 2 facades that face neighboring properties. He inquires
whether his proposal will hinder others to develop their properties.
Mr. Tinaglia states that this would not be an issue.
Mr. Bettenhausen inquires if there is any room for bicycles.
Mr. Tinaglia refers to the plan and states that there are areas within the plan that
could accommodate storage areas for bicycles. He states that visitors could be
accommodated with an area for bike racks and is confident that if it is a
requirement, they could accommodate.
Mr. Bettenhausen inquires about further amenities such as a gym and laundry
facilities.
Mr. Tinaglia points to where the gym is expected to be constructed and states
that laundry facilities are in each unit.
Mr. Bettenhausen asks if the roof top will have any type of lighting or recessed
lighting for evening events.
Mr. Tinaglia explains that lighting could be hung from the trellis and columns. He
also explains the intentions of the roof top area and states that there would be
patio pavers for outdoor furniture, gas grills, fire pit area with seating to
accommodate the urban lifestyle.
Mr. Friedman inquires if there is any accessible restrooms for this area.
Mr. Tinaglia states that there is no restrooms planned for this area and confirms
that restrooms are only available in the private units.
Mr. Friedman inquires about 1st floor 10’ public utility and drainage easement on
the south side of the property. Asks if anything runs through there that would
impact the development.
Mr. Tinaglia states there is not.
Chairman Dwyer asks for the dimensions of the elevator.
Mr. Tinaglia states the elevators are code compliance and is not a freight
elevator. The stairways are also code compliance and would be able to
accommodate larger structures.

Chairman Dwyer questions what the expected monthly rent would be for these
units.
Mr. Tinaglia states that the expected rental range would be approximately $2500
to $3000 per month.
Further discussion ensues regarding the trash room and the number of totes that
will be supplied.
Mr. Friedman inquires if there will be recycling and would it have its’ own
designated trash chute.
Mr. Tinaglia states there would be a separate 9x18 trash chute.
Further discussion regarding the parking lot design and confirmation that the
parking lot would be 24 wide for some of the drive aisles and parking spaces

would be assigned by unit. Most units will be assigned two spots but there will
be a couple of units with one designated spot. Parking garage will have security
cameras.
Mr. Vyverberg discussed plan related items. Currently zoned planned
development. Majority of surrounding properties are also zoned planned
development. He states that the site has been vacant for the past couple of
years. He also provides photos of the surrounding area.
Mr. Vyverberg talks about the initial Downtown design guidelines, which were
approved in the late 90’s and updated in the early 2000’s. Most recently, a new
TOD plan was adopted in 2016. He also discussed surrounding buildings and
their height and dimensions. Mr. Vyverberg provides a utility plan for the area.
He discusses the density plan and states that Staff is comfortable with the
proposed density. He provides a parking analysis for the property and states that
the provided parking is comparable to and exceeds the parking for other similar
developments in downtown Palatine. He talks about the availability of nearby
public parking in the area that allows 3 hour and overnight parking. He also
provides information on the parking dimensions for similar downtown
developments.
Mr. Friedman asks about the parking stall depth and asks for clarification on the
depth of the stall space.
Ben clarifies the measurement of the stall depth space is 18 feet.
Mr. Friedman asks if staff has had any conversation with the developer regarding
the lack of any public amenity at ground level. Transit Orient Development (TOD)
plan does not suggest this property site be fully residential. It was recommended
as a mixed use development and feels this is very important for this location. He
points out the developer is very involved in other communities and wonders if he
or his board would support a provision to this intersection within the business
district without some sort of a public amenity or retail space at ground level. He
points out that this is a parking lot and residential use for a long time to come. It
seems to be against the original plan.
Mr. Vyverberg explains that staff recommendation for the site is consistent with
the Downtown Design Guidelines. The plans address the guidelines and with the
breakup of the elevations, creates a visual interest in the building.
Chairman Dwyer inquires if there is a typical floor plan for the units.
Mr. Tinaglia states there is a pencil copy on his desk. They haven’t spent the
VILLAGE OF PALATINE Page 4
Packet Pg. 5
2.1
Minutes Plan Commission October 18, 2022
money to lay out the floor plan and are waiting on approval of the preliminary
planned development before they move forward with additional drawings. He
also addresses Mr. Friedman concerns about the planned usage for this
property. He states that having useable space for the residents versus retail
space that may take a long time to fill, in his opinion, is a better plan.
Mr. Friedman references the Architectural plans and inquires if breaking up
elevations for visual interest may be further addressed as the majority of the
facade is a flat plane with shallow balconies tacked on. Was anything looked at
to enliven the façade?
Mr. Tinaglia states they focused on the pedestrian scale on first floor. The
drawings for the upper floors reflect a horizontal line so that the building wouldn’t
Minutes Acceptance: Minutes of Oct 18, 2022 7:00 PM (Approval of Minutes)
look so vertical. The proposed building is not a very long building. The intent at
the first floor was to keep the pedestrian scale interesting and keep the second
and third story not to high, which would enable to see there is more to the
building then the flat wall.
Chairman Dwyer inquires about mechanical equipment on roof and the potential
noise.
Mr. Tinaglia states there will be 18 mechanical units on roof and their plan would
be to enclose the units and have buffer landscaping surrounding them.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
The Subject Property was contemplated for redevelopment within both the
Downtown Land Use Guide and the 2016 TOD plan. It is also consistent with the
Downtown Design Guidelines. The proposed architectural plans not only
address the Guideline requirements, but also break up the elevations to create
visual interest in the building. With comparable materials and height for the
surrounding developments, Staff also believes that the proposed building is
compatible with the other recent Downtown development projects. Therefore,
Staff recommends approval of the Preliminary Planned Development, subject to
the following conditions:
1. The development shall substantially conform to the architecture plans
prepared by Tinaglia Architects, except as such plans may be changed to
conform to Village Codes and Ordinances.
2. The Final Engineering plans Engineer’s Estimate of Probable Cost will be
submitted in a manner acceptable to the Village Engineer. Planning Review
fees, based upon the finally accepted EEOPC shall be submitted a manner
acceptable to the Village Engineer.
3. The Final Architectural Plans shall be revised in a manner acceptable to the
Community Development Director. This shall include the final rooftop
amenity area plans and the architectural fencing plan around the exterior
parking stalls.
4. The Plat of Consolidation shall be prepared in a manner acceptable to the

.
Mr. Fedota questions the lighting on the roof top and asks if they would need to
comply with the light spillage ordinances.
Mr. Vyverberg states that the site plan shows it would be inset and final plans
would have to be reviewed and comply with village codes.
Mr. Friedman confirms that today’s meeting is for preliminary review only and
there would be Final Plan Review if this Preliminary is approved.
Mr. Vyverberg confirms that this hearing is to seek preliminary planned
development. He states that if the Preliminary Plan Review is recommended to
approve, it would then go to council for their approval. If the Preliminary Plan is
approved by council, it would then go back through the entire process for Final
Planned Development.
Chairman Dwyer reminds the board that the Preliminary Planned Development is
important because the Final Planned Development meeting will only address
whether or not all of the conditions have been met.
Chairman Dwyer asks if the petitioner agrees to meet all conditions. Mr. Tinaglia
agrees to all conditions.

Meeting of November 15, 2022
BACKGROUND:
The Subject Property was previously approved for a memory care residential
development. That development was never effectuated and the approval expired
in 2016. The property has been vacant and unused since that time. A multi-
family use was requested in 2021 and was not ultimately approved. The
Petitioner is requesting a Preliminary Planned Development to develop 9 units (4
duplexes and 1-single-unit) accessed through two curb cuts from N. Quentin
Road. In addition to the 2-car garages and driveway parking pads for each home
site, there are also 9 additional parking spaces located adjacent to each unit.

Historical Land Uses and Previous Development Approvals:
The Subject 6 lots were annexed in 2002. These properties previously operated
as a single-family home, commercial nursery, and a legal/real estate office.
Through annexation, they were initially zoned R-1 and subsequently rezoned to
Planned Development in 2002.
In 2002 Planned Development (Ordinance #O-43-02) identified the following
commercial uses on the property:
o Landscaping contractor’s yard;
o Retail landscaping facility; and
o Professional offices.
In 2009, the property was conditionally rezoned to B-2 General Business district,
which was also not effectuated.
In 2011, a Planned Development (Ordinance #O-136-11) for a 75-room
Alzheimer’s/memory care use was approved. The plan was amended in 2012,
reducing the room count to 69. The Planned Development expired and the
property has remained vacant since that time.
ANALYSIS:
The Subject Property is 1.97 acres and does not include the vacant office
building at 920 N. Quentin Road (southwest corner of Quentin Road and Poplar
Street). The proposed density is 4.56 units/acre and is comparable to the R-2
single-family residential density of 4.84 units/acre.
The site plan contemplates 2 curb cuts onto N. Quentin Road, with a shared
north-south drive accessing each of the unit driveways and the 9 additional guest
parking spaces provided, within the site.

The follow table identifies the required and provided parking rations for the
proposal:
Parking provided:
Garage parking (18 spaces @ 2/unit) 18
Driveway parking (18 spaces @ 2/unit) 18
Guest parking (9 spaces for 9 units) 9
Total parking provided 45 spaces for 9 units 45 spaces = 5
spaces/unit)
Per existing conditions on the property, there are presently 4 curb cuts for the
lots. As previously noted, Quentin Road is a Cook County controlled corridor and
the right-of-way and access is under the Cook County Highway Department
jurisdictional control. Staff supports the consolidation of access points within the
site.
The proposed curb cut access drives measure 24-feet back of curb to back of
curb and turn into a shared private driveway providing access to each of the 9
units throughout the site.
There is an existing public sidewalk along Quentin Road on the east side of the

site. It would be maintained as part of this development.
The proposed units provide the following setbacks:
Yard Setback
Front (Quentin Road) 50 minimum (* actual @ 70 feet,
with 20-foot driveways)
Rear (west side adjacent to the 40 feet
Franklin Avenue homes)
Interior Side yards (north and south 10 feet
sides)

Preliminary engineering considerations
Utilities exist in the area and are proximate to the site:
As an existing condition, the property drains southeast to northwest and there is
an approximate 10-foot grade differential in that direction. Water would be
accessed from the east side of Quentin Road and the sanitary sewer service
would come from an existing service line on the west side of the property and
ultimately connect through Poplar Street.
Volume control would have to be provided and would be addressed through the
Final Engineering plan submission. The preliminary plans depict the volume

control within the rear yards of the property to incorporate the existing grading
conditions to achieve this requirement.
The Village Engineer has initially reviewed the preliminary plans. At this time, the
proposed plans did not generate any engineering concerns or conditions, but the
Village Engineer reserves the right to impose additional requirements and
conditions, upon Final Engineering review.
Architecture and preliminary landscaping
The project narrative identifies the ranch-style homes having a one or two-story
option, with a basement and ranging in size from 1,600-2,500 square feet. The
proposed building materials indicate a cultured stone veneer on the front
elevation and LP siding. All of the exterior trim would be contrasting to the
siding. The preliminary elevations indicate that the height of the homes could
range from approximately 23 feet to 28 feet in height.
The northern four buildings are anticipated to have a lookout basement, due to
the existing grades in this area. A representational and preliminary landscaping
plan is a component of the preliminary plan. Various yard and foundation
plantings, in addition to arbor vitae plantings along the western property line are
planned. The initial plans also identify a 4-foot wrought-iron style fence
surrounding the property.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Since its incorporation into the Village, the Subject Property has maintained a variety of
land uses. Given its direct adjacency to single-family residential uses on along the west
side of the property and multi-family uses directly across Poplar Street, an identified
land use for the property has not been established, notwithstanding the unimplemented
memory care use. The proposed density is appropriate for the land use and the plans
would reduce the number of existing access points to the site. With an established
parking ration of 5 spaces/unit, Staff does not have any existing parking concerns with
the proposal. Also, the height of the ranch-style homes, should not impact the
surrounding residential properties.
Therefore, Staff recommends approval of the Preliminary Planned Development,
subject to the following conditions:
1. All extra agency permits shall be submitted in a manner acceptable to the
Village Engineer.

2. The Engineers Estimate of Probable Cost (EEOPC) shall be submitted in a
manner acceptable to the Village Engineer.
3. Review fees, based upon the finally accepted EEOPC shall be submitted in
a manner acceptable to the Village Engineer.
4. The Final Architectural Plans shall be revised in a manner acceptable to the
Director of Community Development/Planning and Zoning, including the
final material quantities and distribution.
5. The Final Landscaping Plan shall be revised in a manner acceptable to the
Director of Planning and Zoning. The plan should review the ability to
maintain any of the existing healthy trees within the property.
6. A Public Improvement letter of credit in an amount of 115% of the approved
EEOPC, for said public improvements, shall be submitted in a manner
acceptable to the Village Engineer.
7. A Planned Development Letter of Credit in the amount of $90,000 –
($10,000/unit, per Article 14 of the Zoning Ordinance) shall be submitted in
a manner acceptable to the Director of Planning and Zoning.
8. If required, a Final Plat of Subdivision shall be submitted in a manner
acceptable to the Village Engineer and Director of Planning and Zoning. As
determined by the Village Attorney, the HOA declarations shall be
submitted and revised in a manner acceptable to the Village Attorney.
9. A construction management plan shall be submitted in a manner
acceptable to the Director of Planning and Zoning and the Village Engineer
and shall outline the proposed development schedule and identify the
material delivery routes and proposed parking areas for the contractors, in
conjunction with the building permit application submission.

Ben,
In response to your email dated Nov. 3
I attached a typical ridge height for both the lookout and standard elevations sheet A2.
Also attached is updated site development sheet showing the two separate private entrances.
All building exteriors will be consistent in color with variations to front elevations. Exterior materials will
include eng wood siding soffit and facia with some cultured stone veneer in front elevation. See picture. All
exterior trim will be of contrast to siding.
Each villa will have 1 extra guest parking spot. See site dev sheet.
North and south property line will have a 4’ fence. Villas 5-9 are showing lookout basement on site
development sheet.
No building or covered deck or screened porch structure will encroach into the 40’ rear setback line.
The attached site development sheet shows the new coverages and labels the 3 building towards north as
lookouts at rear. We can include in the HOA the maintenance of the west side arbor vitae buffer these will be
included in site landscaping plan to follow.
A new HOA will be created because of common areas and maintenance requirements. Please call me with any
questions. Thank you
CJ Johnson
