PEERLESS BRIDGE LLC, an Illinois limited liability company By: Bridge Development Partners, LLC, its member Bv: Name: Steven F. Poulos Title: Manager 0 • EXHIBIT C Request for Special Use Permit Aptakisic Creek Corporate Park (Updated for October 15,2007 Board Meeting) Bridge Peerless, LLC ( "Applicant ") is requesting a Special Use Permit that will allow a prospective tenant, Prime Source Building Products, Inc. ( "Prime Source "), to occupy the existing vacant building within Aptakisic Creek Corporate Park located at 15671 West Aptakisic Road, which has been vacant for approximately five years. Prime Source is a wholesale building material distributor with annual sales in excess of $1B. If the Special Use Permit is granted, Prime Source will relocate the subject operations from Elk Grove Village to Buffalo Grove and to the subject property. This division will involve no more than fifty employees (typically far fewer than that), the hours of operation will generally occur between Gam and 7pm, and its traffic requirements are minimal, with roughly ten inbound /outbound trips daily. The Special Use Permit is necessary because Prime Source cannot operate without approximately 52,000 square feet of outside storage for locating certain construction- related building materials. As shown on the attached site plan, this outside storage would be located only in the existing south and west parking lots of the subject property and would not reduce the perimeter green space or walking paths previously reviewed and approved by the Village staff, Appearance Review Team and Plan Commission. Prime Source's Durock, felt and foam insulation materials (which tend to be greater in volume), would be located on the subject property's south side and southwest corner. As shown on the attached site plan, a 10 -foot fence will fully screen this area to the south and west. The Durock, felt and foam insulation materials will be stacked no higher than 91/2 feet (including wood support blocks), to remain invisible beyond the fence. The fencing (see attached detail) will be constructed of solid cedar wood, with lattices and plantings, as suggested by the Plan Commission and shown in the revised plans (dated October 5, 2007). The balance of Prime Source's materials (such as roofing shingles, composite decking, wire and hardware), will be limited to 8 feet in height. As shown on the site plan, fencing will fully screen this area from the south, north and west. Per Village of Buffalo Grove code 17.28.040 (Criteria for Special Use), Applicant believes the proposed Special Use will comply with all of the following criteria. 1. The special use will serve the public convenience at the location of the subject property; or the establishment, maintenance or operation of the special use will not be detrimental to or endanger the public health, safety, morals, comfort, or general welfare. This Special Use will serve the public convenience by permitting an extremely strong and experienced tenant to occupy a facility that has been vacant and deteriorating for five years. This tenancy will create both job opportunities and increased tax revenues for the Village. The proposed use will not be detrimental to or endanger the public health, safety, moral, comfort, or general welfare, as the area of outside storage will be 1 CHG02 \40194733.5 ® • EXHIBIT C Request for Special Use Permit Aptakisic Creek Corporate Park (Updated for October 15, 2007 Board Meeting) fully fenced and secured to provide a safety barrier and visual screen for adjacent property owners. 2. The location and size of the special use, the nature and intensity of the operation involved in or conducted in connection with said special use, the size of the subject property in relation to such special use, and the location of the site with respect to streets giving access to it shall be such that it will be in harmony with the appropriate, orderly development of the district in which it is located The outside storage locations will be fully screened and limited to the south and west sides of the existing building, i.e., adjacent to existing industrial facilities. The subject property will continue to have access via the north -south drive to Aptakisic Road, and the planned area of outside storage is the minimum possible for the tenant to function. 3. The special use will not be injurious to the use and enjoyment of other property in the immediate vicinity of the subject property for the purposes already permitted in such zoning district, nor substantially diminish and impair other property valuations within the neighborhood. The improvements planned for this facility to accommodate the tenant's use will add value to the subject property and immediate area. The outside storage area will be fully screened with an attractive fence comparable with the attached detail sheet. 4. The nature, location and size of the buildings or structures involved with the establishment of the special use will not impede, substantially hinder or discourage the development and use of adjacent land and buildings in accord with the zoning district within which they lie. The lands adjacent to the outside storage areas are currently industrial in nature or vacant. The vacant lands to the north are being developed by Applicant itself, and Applicant has no concerns of the proposed use being detrimental to the two new facilities it will be constructing. The properties to the west and south are industrial, and even if these properties proceed to develop for different uses, the Special Use will not impede, substantially hinder or discourage their development because of the screening and other landscaping and detention buffers that Applicant is creating. 5. Adequate utilities, access roads, drainage, and /or other necessary facilities have been or will be provided. As part of the overall development of Aptakisic Creek Corporate Park, the Applicant is updating and substantially improving the existing utilities, access roads, drainage and other necessary facilities to current Village standards. 2 CHG02 \40194733.5 0 0 EXHIBIT C Request for Special Use Permit Aptakisic Creek Corporate Park (Updated for October 15, 2007 Board Meeting) 6. Parking areas shall be of adequate size for the particular special use, which areas shall be properly located and suitably screened from adjoining residential uses, and the entrance and exit driveways to and from these parking areas shall be designed so as to prevent traffic hazards, eliminate nuisance and minimize traffic congestion in the public streets. Parking areas at the subject property are sufficient for this user, however a variance will be needed from the Village code. Entrances and exits are designed to handle the traffic flow so as to prevent traffic hazards, eliminate nuisance and minimize traffic congestion. B. The special use shall in all other respects conform to the applicable regulations of the zoning district in which it is located, except as such regulations may be varied. Notwithstanding the foregoing, business planned unit developments shall conform with Section 17.44.040D of this Title unless varied. In order for this Special Use to comply with Village code, two variances will be required per the attached Variance Narrative, one relating to fence height, and one related to parking. 3 CHG02 \40194733.5 0 Request for Variances EXHIBIT D Aptakisic Creek Corporate Park (Updated for Village Board, October 15, 2007) The Applicant is requesting two variances that will allow Prime Source to occupy the existing vacant building within Aptakisic Creek Corporate Park located at 15671 West Aptakisic Road. Per the attached site plan, portions of the fence surrounding the outside storage area will be ten feet in height and therefore require a variance from the maximum fence height of 8-feet, per Section 15.20.060 of the Village Zoning Code. Secondly, while the site will provide Prime Source with 59 off - street parking spaces (almost six times the amount Prime Source has at its current location), this amount is technically less than the 64 spaces required by Section 17.36.040 of the Village Zoning Code. 17.52.070 Criteria for variation 1. The property in question cannot yield a reasonable return if permitted to be used only under the conditions allowed by the regulations of the zoning district in which it is located except in the case of residential zoning districts. Fence Height -For Prime Source to efficiently and effectively utilize the premises, it is necessary to have certain voluminous or bulky products and materials in the outside storage area at a height greater than 8 feet. Fully - screening these products and materials from view will require fencing that is ten feet in height in certain areas. Parking — Accommodating the outside storage will utilize some of the outdoor parking areas. However, the 59 spaces that are to be provided will be more than sufficient for Prime Source, which has only ten (10) spaces at its current location. The maximum number of employees working in the warehouse area on a single shift varies by season, but is generally in the range of five to no more than fifteen persons. To be conservative, the variance is being requested to accommodate up to twenty (20) warehouse operations employees. The maximum number of employees in Prime Source's working in the office areas at one time has not exceeded twenty-five, but the Code requires twice that number, given that the office areas will be approximately 14,800 square feet in area. 2. The plight of the owner is due to unique circumstances. Fence Height — Due to the type and size of some of the building products and materials that Prime Source distributes, the 8 foot maximum is not feasible. Parking — The only feasible area for the outside storage is within the existing parking lot that Prime Source does not need to utilize as parking for its use. 3. The proposed variation will not alter the essential character of the neighborhood.
