Description/Title: Ryder at 1290 Enterprise Drive
Type of Review: PUD-FDP
Summary:
Ryder Trucking, represented by Designhaus, Inc, has submitted a Final Development
Plan for the redevelopment of their facility at 1290 Enterprise Drive.
The property is located in the northwest corner of the Marquette Industrial Park. Ryder
has been at the site since 1992. The current proposal will modify the existing detention
pond to free up more space for parking. The parking lots would be reconstructed with up
to 97 12’ x 30’ spaces for box trucks and up to 31 12’ x 60’ spaces for trailers. A building
addition of approximately 10,000 square feet would be constructed to the north of the
Village of Romeoville Page 1
Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting Minutes - Final July 9, 2019
existing building. The applicant has requested a code exception to allow the building
addition to be constructed with a brick base and metal siding. This would match the
existing building. Access to the site would remain the same as today. The landscaping
in front would be updated.
Method of Investigation:
The Development review Committee has reviewed the proposal.
Findings of Fact:
1. The proposal generally complies with the provisions of the Comprehensive Plan
(Chapter 157).
2. The proposal generally complies with the provisions of the Development Regulations
(Chapter 158).
3. The proposal generally complies with the provisions of the Zoning Code
(Chapter 159) as amended in this PUD.
Recommendation:
The Development review Committee has reviewed the proposal and is recommending
approval contingent on compliance with outstanding staff comments.
Jim Rundle, designhaus architecture, 860 Lively Blvd. Elk Grove Village, IL - sworn.
Chairman Venn asked if Mr. Rundle feels the existing building has stood the test of time.
Mr. Rundle stated that it has but the plan is to refresh the existing building.
Chairman Venn asked if there is any timeline for the completion of the project. Project
Development & Planning Coordinator Nathan Darga stated that he is not sure when the
project will begin but it will be done in phases. Mr. Rundle stated that it would be done in
three phases; first, the parking area on the west will be constructed so the trailers can be
relocated. Second, the fuel island will be relocated and third will be the building
expansion.
Commissioner Nelson asked if the buildings are used for repair of trucks only. Mr. Rundle
stated that this is the case.
Commissioner Nelson asked if the addition would be separated from the original building
with a firewall. Mr. Rundle stated that this is not necessary since the building will have
sprinklers.
Commissioner Nelson asked if there is any concern over additional traffic. Mr. Rundle
stated that this is not an issue.
Chairman Venn asked if the Village Engineers are okay with the detention pond. Mr.
Darga stated that they are and a Storm Water Report was done.
Commission Burgess asked if the handicap parking would need to be increased due to
the increased parking. Mr. Darga stated that the only customer parking is near the
building entrance and they have handicap parking as required.
Commissioner Pyle asked how deep the retention pond would be. Mr. Rundle stated that
it is about ten feet from top to bottom. Mr. Darga stated that it would not be wet all the
time or need an aerator.
A motion was made by Commissioner Scieszka, seconded by Commissioner
Pyle, that this Public Hearing be Closed. The motion carried by a unanimous
vote.

Report.
Description/Title: Romeo V Development LLC
Type of Review: PUD-FDP
Summary:
Romeo V Development LLC has submitted a PUD-FDP application for the lots on the
west side of Weber Road between 135th Street and Carillon Drive.
The lots west of Weber have had several approvals over the years. Recently, the county
has acquired right of way from all of these properties for the Weber Road widening
project. As a result of this ROW taking, all of the parking lots and signage do not meet
current setbacks. The taking has also left very limited areas for the signs to be relocated
to.
To address these issues, the applicant is requesting a new PUD be approved. This PUD
will make the now current setbacks legal. It will also approve the location of the new
signs. The size and height of these signs will remain as previously approved. The Village
has requested that any new signage be a monument style sign. The applicant has
agreed to this.
Method of Investigation:
The Development review Committee has reviewed the proposal.
Findings of Fact:
1. The proposal generally complies with the provisions of the Comprehensive Plan
(Chapter 157).
2. The proposal generally complies with the provisions of the Development Regulations
(Chapter 158)
3. The proposal generally complies with the provisions of the Zoning Code
(Chapter 159) as amended in this PUD.
Recommendation:
The Development review Committee has reviewed the proposal and is recommending
approval.
Richard J. Kavanagh, 111 N Ottawa St. Joliet, IL - sworn.

water will be enclosed in pipes.
Commissioner Nelson asked if the properties on the east side of Weber Road would have
the same issue with signage, Mr. Darga stated that all businesses affected by the
construction would have the same issue and he expects them to come forward soon.
Commissioner Scieszka asked if all the sight triangles are okay with the new signage
plan. Mr. Darga stated that they area.
A motion was made by Commissioner Pyle, seconded by Commissioner
McConachie, that this Public Hearing be Closed. The motion carried by a
unanimous vote.
