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.

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 2.1 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. VILLAGE OF PALATINE Page 3 Packet Pg. 4 2.1 Minutes Plan Commission October 18, 2022 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 Minutes Acceptance: Minutes of Oct 18, 2022 7:00 PM (Approval of Minutes) 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 VILLAGE OF PALATINE Page 5 Packet Pg. 6 2.1 Minutes Plan Commission October 18, 2022 Director of Planning and Zoning and the Village Engineer. This would include the vacation of the 10-foot public utilities and drainage easement on the south side of the property and referenced on the ALTA survey, dated December 13, 2019 by MM Surveying Company. 5. At the direction of the Village Engineer, all extra agency permits shall be submitted. 6. Review fees, based upon the finally accepted EEOPC shall be submitted in a manner acceptable to the Village Engineer. 7. The Final Landscaping shall be revised in a manner acceptable to the Director of Planning and Zoning. Minutes Acceptance: Minutes of Oct 18, 2022 7:00 PM (Approval of Minutes) 8. 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. 9. A Planned Development Letter of Credit in the amount of $180,000 - ($10,000/unit, per Article 14 of the Zoning Ordinance) shall be submitted in a manner acceptable to the Director of Planning and Zoning. 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. 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. Mr. Noonan made a motion to accept; seconded by Mr. Bettenhausen VILLAGE OF PALATINE Page 6 Packet Pg. 7 2.1 Minutes Plan Commission October 18, 2022 Chairman Dwyer made a motion to close the public hearing. DISCUSSION: Chairman Dwyer states that he believes it looks to be a nice development.

Quentin Road CASE NUMBER: 22-50 PETITIONER: C.J. Johnson - Latitude Building and Development LLC, with Michael R. Ek as the authorized agent. LOCATION: 874-912 N. Quentin Road PROPOSAL: 9-unit (4 duplexes and 1-single-unit) residential development on a 1.97- acres property. The ranch-style units are accessed through two centralized curb cuts onto Quentin Road, with separate driveways to the units and additional guest parking distributed throughout the development. ZONING AND LAND USE: Planned Development and vacant (the previous memory care facility Planned Development expired in 2016). The property has been vacant and unused since that time. The current and surrounding zoning designations are found in the map below: Page 1 Packet Pg. 10 4.1 Case Staff Statement (ID # 7990) Meeting of November 15, 2022 SURROUNDING CONDITIONS: North: Planned Development – vacant building South: B-2 General Business – real estate office East: Unincorporated Cook County (Lake Park Estates Subdivision) and 2 Quentin Road lot within the Village of Palatine West: Franklin Avenue –single-family homes; R-1 zoning district Page 2 Packet Pg. 11 4.1 Case Staff Statement (ID # 7990) Meeting of November 15, 2022 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Future Land Use Map recommends that the Subject Property be utilized for multi-family residential uses. This is linked to the previously approved memory care and Alzheimer’s residential development. That recommendation is also consistent with other similar senior care facilities within the Village. Page 3 Packet Pg. 12 4.1 Case Staff Statement (ID # 7990) 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. Page 4 Packet Pg. 13 4.1 Case Staff Statement (ID # 7990) Meeting of November 15, 2022 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. Page 5 Packet Pg. 14 4.1 Case Staff Statement (ID # 7990) Meeting of November 15, 2022  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 Page 6 Packet Pg. 15 4.1 Case Staff Statement (ID # 7990) Meeting of November 15, 2022 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) Page 7 Packet Pg. 16 4.1 Case Staff Statement (ID # 7990) Meeting of November 15, 2022 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 Page 8 Packet Pg. 17 4.1 Case Staff Statement (ID # 7990) Meeting of November 15, 2022 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. Page 9 Packet Pg. 18 4.1 Case Staff Statement (ID # 7990) Meeting of November 15, 2022 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.

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.
