Director (I) CALL TO ORDER A quorum being present, Chair Luke called the meeting to order at 7:30 PM. (II) APPROVAL OF MINUTES A motion to approve the minutes of the October 19, 2023 meeting was made by Commissioner Burman and seconded by all in unison. Ayes: Unanimous voice vote. (III) RULING ON NOTICE Assistant Corporation Counsel Kobylski determined that notice was proper and correct. Personal notice is not required for text amendments. (IV) CASE DESCRIPTION Case 2023-30P – Zoning Chapter Amendment: Co-Working The Village is requesting an amendment to Section 118, Article II, Article V, Article IX, Appendix A, and any other related sections of the Skokie Village Code to establish provisions for co-working as a special use on Retail Streets in the Mixed-Use Zoning District. Planning Manager, Paul Reise, presented the case. He announced that no changes to Article V will be made at this time. Adult uses, cannabis dispensaries, etc. will continue to be regulated by their special use permits. “Co-working” is a very popular use especially since COVID. The pandemic forced businesses to change their operations and some companies have adopted a hybrid work model where people work part-time at home and part-time in an office on a revolving basis. The use has been interpreted as “office not otherwise listed” in the use table (Appendix A) and is not permitted in the Retail Streets areas of the Village. Staff believes that the co- working use needs to be defined better and would have spill-over benefits to the Downtown businesses much like retail and proposes to regulate the use through the special use permit process to retain some control over compatibility and parking with surrounding uses. # 615925 Plan Commission meeting minutes November 16, 2023 Chairman Luke questioned how retailers would know. Staff informed the group that our Economic Vitality team has been out and about discussing the topic and raising questions. Commissioner Berman shared that the Commission’s feeling in the past was not to have this type of use take up space; and retail areas should be kept solely retail. Commissioner Franklin inquired about the co-working space proposed at Old Orchard from Regus Membership Plan. Staff offered that there was 1 such use in the office tower at Old Orchard. Commissioner Ousley stated that times have changed, and improved language is needed to clarify the use and its relationship to other uses. He also asked if there is an actual demand for this use or is the Village being forward and pro-active. Staff answered that there is no specific property or case coming up. Commissioner Mathee inquired if a request is filed, would it be heard by the Plan Commission. Commissioner Berman asked staff if there has ever been an office use turned down from occupying space on a retail street. Other commissioners offered that several uses such as insurance, real estate, and law offices have occupied storefronts on Oakton Street. Commissioner Mathee recalled a previous case (2021-28P) which protects downtown corner locations for restaurant or retail uses only. (IV) RECOMMENDATIONS AND VOTING A motion was made to approve the request to amend Section 118, Article II, Article IX, Appendix A, and any other related sections of the Skokie Village Code to establish provisions for co-working as a special use on Retail Streets in the Mixed-Use Zoning District with no changes to Article V at this time. Motion: Burman Second: Berman Ayes: 8 Nays: 0 (V) ITEMS FOR COMMUNICATION The next meeting on Dec. 7, 2023 will be the last one for 2023. Happy Thanksgiving wishes were extended to all.

Ayes: Unanimous voice vote in unison (III) RULING ON NOTICE Assistant Corporation Counsel Kobylski determined that notice was proper and correct. (IV) CASE DESCRIPTIONS Case 2023-28P – Parking Determination: 9230 Lotus Avenue Orchard Village, an Illinois corporation, requires a parking determination for a 6-bedroom congregate living facility. Case 2023-29P – Site Plan Approval: 9230 Lotus Avenue Orchard Village, an Illinois corporation, requests site plan approval for a 6-bedroom congregate living facility in an R2 Single-Family zoning district, and any relief that may be discovered during the review of this case. PINs: 10-22-402-009-0000 and 10-22-402-010-0000 As both cases are related, they were discussed together but voted on separately. Chairman Luke read the submitted public comments into the record. He stated that the Village of Skokie’s job is to oversee that code regulations are followed and that a home is safe. They cannot prohibit a CILA house from occupying a property if it meets requirements. # 615343 Plan Commission meeting minutes October 19, 2023 Ms. Marlene Hodges has been employed by Orchard Village as their Executive Vice- President and Chief Operating Officer for twelve years. She gave a brief history of the not- for-profit business explaining that since 1972 they have been providing care and housing services to individuals with developmental disabilities who are unable to live independently on their own. In fact, their 1st clients are still housed with them after 50 years. They currently own (12) small 3-bedroom, 1½ bath homes which serves 6-8 people each with 24-hour staff. As some of the residents are getting older and cannot walk stairs anymore, the Orchard Village board would like to afford handicapped accessible homes where their aging clients can each have a bedroom with a shared bathroom. They strive to provide comfortable, safe homes and be good neighbors. The subject property was owned by a WWII disabled veteran and his son was elated to honor his father by turning the house over to Orchard Village after 70 years of being family owned. It is currently a 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom home which, after converting the library into another bedroom, will become home to 6 women who have been living together for the past 40 years. All the residents go to day programs and are supervised in the evening by caretakers. Occasionally, they do get visited by family. Commissioner Scott Berman asked questions regarding the use of a disability bus parked on site, the exterior changes needed at the property that will be used as an institutional use, and client/staff ratio. Ms. Hodges stated that they use a regular mini-van to take clients to activities and appointments. Orchard Village’s main concern is safety and keeping the interior and exterior aesthetically pleasant. At the subject site, 2 trees were removed which were examined to be unsafe and the grounds were cleaned-up and re-seeded. She also reiterated that 1 or 2 staff are always present whenever clients are at home. Mr. Jose Acosta, Planning Coordinator, requested that the reports be entered into the record as written. Since none of the residents’ drive, the Orchard Village mini-van as well as one staff vehicle are able to utilize the existing 2-car garage. There is enough room on the long driveway to contain 4 additional cars for visitors. The final determination regarding parking was decided by the Plan Commission to be 6 on-site parking spaces; needing no Village Board input. Staff is in support of the site plan approval request. The subject site occupies 2 lots with different PINs and therefore, PIN consolidation is a recommendation for approval. The Fire Department, in their written comments, stated that detailed site and floor plans need to be resubmitted showing the scope of work, with sprinkler and fire alarm systems installed before the issuance of building permits. Staff pointed out that Conditions 2 & 3 of the staff report are to be omitted as they have been taken care of since the writing of the report. Commissioner Gevaryahu questioned if a zoning change was in order. Congregate living facilities are permitted uses in the R2 Single-Family zoning district. However, site plan approval is necessary when a home has more than 4 bedrooms. Commissioner Berman reminded all about no occupancy until the Fire Department review and sign off. # 615343 Plan Commission meeting minutes October 19, 2023 Ms. Hodges is in agreement with waiting on the permit. The current Skokie home that the 6 women are living in will be sold as the stairs are too narrow and challenging even to the able- bodied. Chairman Luke opened the meeting for public comments and called on interested parties from the sign-up sheet. Erik Anderson, 9250 Lotus Avenue, stated that his initial concerns have been explained but was surprised that the Village of Skokie cleaned up the felled tree despite it being on private property. Commissioner Ousley answered that if the tree fell due to a storm and it impacts a public way, the Village will come out. Mr. Anderson also inquired about the side lot. Commissioner Berman stated that the applicant can reject the consolidation recommendation and sell off the buildable, vacant lot next door. Dean Rauchwerger, adjacent homeowner, spoke of the quiet, charming neighborhood that Orchard Village is trying to integrate into. Most households are 2-3 people; not 8-10. This drastic change in density will alter the characteristics of the neighborhood. He also commented on the 3-minute limitation to speak when the petitioner has no time restrictions. It sounds like this is a “rubber-stamp” project including the removal of a 100-year old tree on a week-end. Chairman Luke asked if his concern is against families with more than 2 kids. As an example, this 5-bedroom house could be a home to 2-parents with 3 kids. Commissioner Berman added that a 5-bedroom home is allowed to have as many residents as can fit. Nina Rauchwerger further remarked that neighbors are in attendance to voice their comments of objection. If they cannot stop this project, why did they bother to attend? She also asked about the relationship between the Village of Skokie and Orchard Village; 4 Village trucks cleaned up the downed tree. She also stated that the maximum number of residents is said to be 6 right now; how can they be sure more are not added in the future? Commissioner Berman answered that the house will look like the same house it is. It will not look institutionalized. The house will go through inspections from the Health Department and monitored by other governing agencies. Steven Pauley, 5440 Foster Street, mentioned the conditions of the group home at 9223 Linder (?) that has been in the neighborhood for about 10 years and asked if they were affiliated. Staff is not aware of another group home in the area as locations are not disclosed. It depends on how the Linder home is coded in our computer system. Chairman Luke stated that the Plan Commission reviews development and enforcement is handled by Building Inspection Services. Helen Sarris, 9315 Linder Avenue, referenced that Orchard Village started out with 1 house on Marmora Avenue and continued buying all the houses on the cul-de-sac and wondered if they will be buying up more properties in this neighborhood. Are there limits on space within a certain radius? In 2-3 years, can they bring in more residents? Staff answered that there is a regulation in place that an 800 ft. distance is required between congregate living facilities. The state limits up to 8 non-related residents can occupy a home if space is available. At this house, the maximum is 6 residents. Commissioner Berman added that the block will not change to all group homes. # 615343 Plan Commission meeting minutes October 19, 2023 Michelle Hammond, 9215 Linder, works in the special education field, stated that these individuals need to live somewhere. Her concern is their safety if they walk or wander in the neighborhood as there will be no signage at the property. Mark Matthews, 9338 Lotus Avenue, is concerned about his children’s safety and the family’s security. Is this a home for the mentally imbalanced? Selma Zukancic, 9436 Lotus Avenue, commented that the Linder group home is located across the alley from her home and looks like an institutional property. These homes usually have limited resources with only 1 staff member to care for the residents. What about escapes? Where does one go to report problems? In her opinion, the house is good, but the location is bad. Kathy Pauley, 5440 Foster Street, asked if this was a Village of Skokie project. When the house was sold to Orchard Village to become a group home, why wasn’t a meeting set to get neighbor input? Chairman Luke answered that the Village of Skokie had no prior knowledge as this was a private sale. In conclusion, Ms. Hodges reiterated, that this home will have 6 residents with up to 2 staff members. They can legally have 8 but their intent is to have 6. The residents are not locked in; they are higher functioning and can walk around the neighborhood unaided without telling a supervisor. They will not cause any unsafe conditions. Commissioner Ousley commented that he found the discussion to be distasteful talking about people that are not able to go about their business in their own neighborhood. (IV) RECOMMENDATIONS AND VOTING Case 2023-28P: Parking Determination – 9230 Lotus Avenue The Plan Commission determined that the off-street parking requirement for the congregate living facility located at 9230 Lotus Avenue is 6 on-site parking spaces. The attached 2-car garage should accommodate the Orchard Village van as well as a staff vehicle. The long driveway can accommodate 4 additional vehicles for visitors. None of the residents’ drive. This determination is only for this group home and not transferrable. Motion: Gevaryahu Second: Minchella Ayes: 5 Nays: 0 Case 2023-29P: Site Plan Approval – 9230 Lotus Avenue A motion was made to approve the request for site plan approval for a 6-bedroom congregate living facility in an R2 Single-Family zoning district. Motion: Ousley Second: Gevaryahu Ayes: 5 Nays: 0 # 615343 Plan Commission meeting minutes October 19, 2023 (V) ITEMS FOR COMMUNICATION The next meeting on Nov. 2, 2023 has been cancelled due to lack of cases. There will be a meeting on Nov. 16, 2023. (VI) ADJOURNMENT Chair Luke adjourned the meeting at 8:43 PM.

VOSDOCS-#615032-v1-Legal_Notice_of_Public_Hearing_for_Plan_Commission_Meeting_of_2023-11-16 STAFF REPORT 2023-30P: Zoning Chapter Amendment Community Development Department Council Chambers, 7:30 PM, November 16, 2023 To: Paul Luke, Chairman, Skokie Plan Commission From: Paul Reise, Planning Manager Case: 2023-30P: Zoning Chapter Amendment Co-working office General Information Petitioner Village of Skokie Purpose The Village is requesting an amendment to Section 118 Article II, Article V, Article IX, Appendix A, and any other related sections of the Skokie Village Code to establish provisions for co-working as a special use on Retail Streets in the Mixed-Use Zoning District. STAFF ANALYSIS In addition to recent sustainably initiatives, staff has also been reviewing the Zoning Code for opportunities to increase pedestrian friendly policies. The Community Development Department, along with other Village Departments, have always strived to make Skokie more pedestrian friendly especially in our Retail Street corridors. Creating a more walkable environment Downtown that attracts both shoppers and businesses is a goal of the Village. In order to achieve further sustainability and a more pedestrian friendly Village, the Community Development Department is proposing to allow Co-working Office as special uses in the Retail Street designated areas of Mixed-Use zoning districts. Co-working space is still a relatively new concept, but it has swept across the nation and around the world in recent years. The concept itself was introduced in 1995 and by 2019, there were close to 20,000 coworking stations located around the world. At that time, the United States was home to about 80 million square feet of co-working space. There has been a boom and bust cycle and especially post-COVID we are seeing a stabilization in the market. The pandemic forced many businesses to change their operational model overnight. Now a lot of companies are sticking with a remote work model or a hybrid one, where some people work from home and others work in an office on a revolving or part-time basis at least. Most employees like the option of hybrid schedules and, especially younger workers, seek the personal interactions of communal workspaces. The notion of having to drive VOSDOCS-#615584-v2-Staff_Report_for_2023-30P_-_Zoning_Chapter_Amendment_-_Co_Working_office_ Page 1 of 25 to and from work again is off-putting to some workers who’ve grown accustomed to a shortened workday thanks to not having to commute daily Monday through Friday. Currently, co-working is interpreted by Village Staff as “Office not otherwise listed” in the use table and is therefore not permitted in the Retail Street areas of the Village. Staff believes co-working to be more of a hybrid use type that can potentially have spill- over benefits to Downtown more akin to retail. But Staff does recommend retaining some regulatory controls in the Retail Street areas to ensure each site is compatible with surrounding uses, that Staff and the Plan Commission review and approve the operations plan including rules for membership, and to ensure that there is sufficient operational oversight and business leadership. The proposed changes would: 1. Define Co-working Office in Sec. 118-32 General Definitions, 2. Designate the minimum parking as- 1 parking space for each 300 ft2 of net floor area in Sec. 118-218 (b) (4), and 3. Add Co-working Office to Appendix A- Use Table as; a. Permitted use in- NX, TX, CX, B1, B2, B3, B4, B6, M1, M2, M3, and OR b. Special Use in- Retail Street STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the following sections of Chapter 118 Zoning of the Skokie Village Code be amended, with text to be added highlighted and text to be removed highlighted and stricken through in the attached draft ordinance. Sec. 118-32. General definitions. The following words, terms and phrases, when used in this chapter, shall have the meanings ascribed to them in this section, except where the context clearly indicates a different meaning: Co-working Office means a facilitated environment which may contain desks or other workspaces and facilities and is used by a recognized membership who share the site. Rules for membership and participation in the coworking space are explicit, transparent and are available to the public. Coworking spaces may host classes or networking events which are open either to the public or to current and prospective members. Fabrication tools are limited to those which do not generate noise or pollutants in excess of what is customary within a typical office environment.
