In answer to a question from Trustee Ottenheimer,Mr.Raysa reviewed the section relating to protection of the Constitutional Right to Free Speech while not creating a nuisance to neighboring properties,and noting that the Village cannot regulate the content of speech. Violations are addressed in the Penalty section. Trustee Stein thanked everyone who has worked on the modification of the Sign Code. Trustee Stein questioned the section regarding electronic window signs. Mr. Sheehan stated that the messages would be allowed to be change every ten seconds. Trustee Stein would like to see two of the ZBA commissioners included at the Plan Commission level. Trustee Terson noted that he believes businesses should be free to choose the lettering style and color for their brand. Trustee Berman agrees with Trustee Terson with regard to businesses being able to brand their locations with their particular logo;he believes that windows cluttered with electronic signs detract from a positive business climate;he believes there are a lot of good ideas that evolved from this process. Trustee Trilling suggested that many of the things that are incorporated in the Sign Code set a frame work,but they do not dictate what ultimately may be built,because each shopping center may have its own sign code restrictions. Mrs.Neukirch stated that the next step in this process is to meet with the property managers of each of the shopping centers and look at their uniform sign criteria in an attempt to update and modernize those regulations. Trustee Trilling suggested wording that would state that the lettering styles should relate to the overall concept of the property. Trustee Trilling does not believe that including ZBA members in the decision should be a requirement,but he does believe that they should be able to participate in the discussion if available,or share their thoughts if they are unable to attend. Trustee Sussman believes that ZBA members should be included in the discussion but they should not have a vote. Trustee Ottenheimer stated that,if ZBA members cannot attend meetings,they may still communicate their opinions to the Plan Commission; any member of the ZBA is welcome to attend the Plan Commission meetings and share their thoughts. President Braiman does not believe it is appropriate to have the ZBA members vote at the Plan Commission;he believes the electronic window signs should be eliminated;he believes that businesses should be able to brand their businesses with their logos. President Braiman polled the Board with regarding to the number of seconds allowed for changeable electronic signs: 12629 04/16/2012 20: Berman,Trilling, Stein,Ottenheimer 15: Sussman 10: Terson President Braiman polled the Board as to whether or not to eliminate electronic window signs: Eliminate: Berman,Trilling, Sussman, Stein,Ottenheimer Has no problem with them: Terson Moved by Ottenheimer,seconded by Sussman,to defer action on this issue.

The consortium secured a rate of 4.775 cents per kilowatt hour compared to ComEd's April 2012 residential supply rate of 8.233* cents per kilowatt hour. In addition to a substantial savings on electricity supply costs,the Village of Buffalo Grove and members in the consortium will ensure that the fees paid by participants for electricity generation go to purchase 100%renewable energy certificates from wind resources, otherwise known as "green energy". The rate will save eligible customers more than 42%off their current electric supply. The price reduction refers to the electricity supply portion of the bill only,not the cost of delivery. As part of the Intergovernmental Agreement to create the consortium, approved by Resolution No. 2012-3 on February 6,2012,the Village Board provided the village manager or designee authorization to accept the lowest and most responsible bid or proposal. Attached is the final Aggregation Program Agreement which was approved and executed on April 27, 2012 between the Village of Buffalo Grove and Integrys Energy Services, Inc. The Village received all the requested load data and contact information for eligible parties from ComEd, and as a result, will be prepared to send the mailing to eligible residents and small commercial customers on May 9, 2012. Attached is the letter to be mailed for reference. A "small commercial customer" is based on an annual consumption of less than 15,000 kWh per year. An immediate mailing is planned in order to capture savings as early as possible for residents and eligible small businesses. Based on the ComEd rate of 8.233 cents/kWh, the Village will save more than $490,000 in one month. The current ComEd Basic Electric Service Rate is in effect from October 1, 2011,through May 31, 2012, and includes the Purchased Electricity Supply Charge, Transmission Services Charge and the April 2012 Purchased Electricity Adjustment Charge. Based on ComEd's possible rate of 6.96 cents/kWh effective June 1, 2012 for one year, the Village would save more than $310,000 in the first month and a total savings of more than $2.1 million in the first year of the program.

The Village's agreement will extend through the last meter read date on or before June 30, 2013. Individuals are recommended to be cautious of offers from other firms seeking to contract with customers. The Village recommends comparing the rate of service and all terms and conditions before signing a contract or agreement. The Village's aggregation program is an opt-out program, which means that eligible customers will become part of the Villages' program automatically— no action is required unless an eligible customer desires to opt-out. The deadline to opt-out is May 22, 2012. Individuals who have expiring contracts with another supplier would be required to opt-in to the Village program if they are interested. Individuals already served by Integrys will receive information from Integrys on their ability to switch to the aggregation program's favorable electric rate. Individuals with existing third-party contracts (other than ComEd for supply services) are encouraged to review the terms and conditions of their bill to identify if and what the termination fee if they choose to opt-into the Village's program. An early termination fee of$25 will apply if a customer leaves the program after the rescission period which ends five business days before the switch to Integrys' service is to occur. Information about the program is posted to the Village's website at www.vbg.org. Due to the size of the file,the proposal has not been attached to this report. Integrys'proposal is available upon request.

Exhibit C VILLAGE OF BUFFALO GROVE MUNICIPAL AGGREGATION SUPPLY PRICING CONFIRMATION This Confirmation, once fully executed, is an agreement entered into pursuant to the terms of the Aggregation Program Agreement between Vendor and the Village of Buffalo Grove (the "Village"), and forms a part thereof. Vendor and Village agree that the Aggregation Participants under the Residential Rate Classes and Commercial Rate Classes shall receive the Fixed Rate set forth below for the Delivery Period set forth below: Delivery Period: Beginning with the first available meter read after June 18, 2012 through the last meter reading date on or before June 30, 2013. Fixed Rate: $.04775 per kWh Price Match. If the Utility's Price to Compare for the Account(s)' rate class are set below the Fixed Rate during the Term of this Agreement, Vendor may either (a) lower the Fixed Rate identified above to match that of the Utility's applicable Price to Compare or (b) terminate this Agreement without damages or early termination fees to either Party. "Utility's Price to Compare" shall mean ComEd's "Price to Compare" for the applicable rate class, as posted on the ICC website (www.pluginillinois.org), which includes ComEd's electricity supply charge plus ComEd's transmission services charge, but shall not include ComEd's purchased electricity adjustment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, termination (in the circumstance described in this paragraph) may be avoided if the Village determines that the Program should remain in place at the Fixed Rate agreed to without the need to match. The Price does not include utility distribution charges or applicable taxes. Both Parties recognize that components of the Fixed Rate include electric tariff charges that are authorized by the Illinois Commerce Commission, Independent System Operator, other state or governmental agencies having jurisdiction, and/or the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. Any increase in these charges subsequent to the execution of this Confirmation may be directly passed through to Aggregation participants by a corresponding increase in the Fixed Rate. Product: Electricity plus Renewable Energy Credits (RECs). A certain percentage (between 6 and 8% of a customer's metered usage during the Delivery Period) is already supported by REC purchases as a result of the Illinois Renewable Portfolio Standard requirement. Thus, Integrys will procure RECs to support the percentage of customer's load not already supported by RPS purchases. Integrys will commit to satisfy those RPS requirements with non-carbon products (including without limitation hydro, wind, etc.) For the remainder of the load (92-94% of the participant's metered usage), Integrys will obtain RECs from MRETs-sited wind resources. (MRETS states and provinces include Illinois, Iowa, Manitoba, Minnesota, Montana, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota, and Wisconsin). The actual generation will not change, but the environmental attributes and reporting rights (the two things that make up RECs) will be sourced from a MRETs-sited wind resource. Together, the RECs plus the "traditional" energy generation make for a renewable offering. 1 Village of Buffalo Grove Integrys Energy Services, Inc.: By: Dane Bragg, Village Manager By: Ronnie E. Cardwell II, Vice President Date: Date: 2 3 Exhibit D Electric Aggregation Plan of Operation and Governance April 10, 2012 W I of Wage of / VILLAGE PALATINE � � �o- 1 ELECTRIC AGGREGATION PLAN OF OPERATION AND GOVERNANCE I. HISTORY AND PURPOSE OF MUNICIPAL AGGREGATION Pursuant to Section 1-92 of the Illinois Power Agency Act, 20 ILCS 3855/1-1 et seq. municipalities are authorized to aggregate the electric loads of residential and small commercial retail customers and to then solicit bids, select a retail electric supplier, and enter into a Supply Agreement to facilitate the purchase of electricity and related services and equipment on behalf of its residents and small businesses. The statute is a part of the state's electric deregulation efforts which allows customers access to competitive retail electric markets. In accordance with that law, in late 2011, the Villages of Arlington Heights, Buffalo Grove, Lincolnshire, Long Grove, Palatine, Wheeling & Vernon Hills passed resolutions authorizing a referendum on the March 20, 2012 ballot which asked the voters of the respective communities for authority to create an Opt-Out aggregation program for its residents and small business customers. Through an inter-governmental agreement which was approved in the first quarter, 2012, representatives from the communities of Arlington Heights, Buffalo Grove, Lincolnshire Long Grove, Palatine, Vernon Hills and Wheeling (hereinafter "Consortium") solidified their working relationship to aggregate residential and small commercial retail electrical loads located within each of the communities. The Consortium seek to operate the aggregation program pursuant to the requirements of Section 1-92 of the Illinois Power Agency Act (20 ILCS 3855/1-1 et seq.)("Act"). The Consortium has retained Intelligent Power Partners LLP (hereinafter "Consultant") to assist with implementing the program, bidding and selecting the electricity supplier. A public outreach campaign was conducted to educate residents and small businesses within the Consortium about the Community Choice Aggregation Program. Outreach efforts included three public information meetings, press releases, news articles in local and regional media, village newsletter articles, chamber newsletter articles, and presentations to community groups. The Consortium's Aggregation Program seeks to aggregate the retail electric loads of eligible residents and small commercial retail accounts and to solicit bids for the purchase of that electricity. The Consortium's program will solicit bids for both a lowest rate alternative as well as an alternative for a cleaner, greener supply of electric power. With an estimated population of 260,000, the Aggregation has the potential to attract lower rates than the current default tariff service rate, while also considering a cleaner power supply. The Consortium's Aggregation Program entails each municipality within the Consortium entering into a contract with the preferred and selected alternate retail electric supplier, and the Program provides the bargaining power achieved through the size of the Consortium. The Program is designed to reduce the amount its members pay for electric energy power supply and gain other favorable terms of service. The Consortium will not buy or resell power, but will competitively bid and negotiate a contract with a competent and licensed Alternative Retail Electric Supplier ("ARES") to provide electric supply at contracted rates to all members of the Aggregation Program. The ARES shall provide accurate and understandable pricing, ancillary services and an opt-out notification plan. The ARES will also perform and manage ancillary services for the Aggregation Members as described in this document. 2 Because each community within the Consortium adopted an opt-out Aggregation Program, all customers in the defined aggregation group participate in the Program unless they affirmatively elect to opt out of the Program. By including procedures by which customers may opt-out, the Aggregation Program ensures that participation is voluntary and individuals have the ability to decline to participate. As required by law,this Plan of Operation and Governance describes: 1) How the Aggregation Program will provide for universal access to all applicable residential and small business customers and equitable treatment of applicable customers; 2) How demand management and energy efficiency services will be provided to each class of customers; and 3) How the Aggregation will meet any other legal requirements concerning aggregated electric service. The Consortium and the selected ARES will follow the Plan of Operation and Governance set forth in this document. II.

No.10 Rate GAP Government Aggregation Protocols, Sheets 406-411, April 17 2011) requesting that it provide the Village with Retail Customer Identification Information. Com Ed will provide the Village with the requested information within ten (10) business days of receiving the request in accordance with those adopted protocols. After selecting and contracting with an ARES, the Village, under confidential agreement with the ARES, will work with the ARES, to remove any customers determined to be ineligible due to one or more of the following: 1. The customer is not located within the Village; 2. The customer has a pre-existing agreement with another ARES; 3. The customer has free Com Ed service; 4.

The ARES will maintain the database in a secure and confidential manner. The ARES will keep Customer Account Information for a minimum of two years following the termination of the service. C. Opt-Out Process. The Consortium's Aggregation is an Opt-Out program pursuant to 20 ILCS 3855/1-92. Any eligible electric account that opts out of the Program pursuant to the procedures stated below will automatically be placed on the ComEd default tariff service unless and until the account chooses another ARES. 1. Manner of Providing Notices and Information. The ARES will be required to pay for printing and mailing of all Aggregation and Opt-Out Notices. The ARES will mail Aggregation and Opt Out Notices to the eligible account holders within the boundaries of each Village at the address provided with the Retail Customer Identification Information provided by ComEd. 2. Content of Notice. The Consortium and the ARES will agree to the format and contents of the Aggregation and Opt-Out Notice prior to distribution or mailing. The Notice will inform the electric account owner of the existence of the Aggregation Program, the identity of the ARES, the rates to be charged.

The other members are Arlington Heights, Mount Prospect, Palatine and Rolling Meadows. The Steering Committee of the Collaborative has agreed to participate with CMAP (Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning)to conduct a housing study for each community. The study for a municipality is intended to provide an assessment of current housing conditions and identify opportunities for meeting future housing demand in the community. The studies are part of the "Homes for a Changing Region" initiative coordinated by the Metro Mayors Caucus (MMC) and the Metropolitan Planning Council (MPC) with technical assistance by CMAP. Staff from CMAP will present the attached project overview and preliminary analysis for Buffalo Grove to the Village Board on May 7. Next steps in the process include a presentation to the Village Plan Commission and a public input meeting on June 20. Subsequent to the public meetings, CMAP staff will compile the information and develop draft studies for review by staff in each community. The report and draft recommendations for Buffalo Grove will be presented to the Village Board in October 2012. The report would be revised pursuant to the direction of the Board, and a final report will be submitted to the Village in November.

Recommendation of Action Staff recommends approval. Overview The Village of Buffalo Grove's Fund Balance and Reserve Policy has been amended to reflect accounting pronouncement No. 54 set by the Government Accounting Standards Board. The pronouncement addresses issues related to how fund balance was being reported. The original intention was to clear up confusion regarding the relationship between reserved fund balance and restricted net assets. Fund balance will now be displayed in the following classifications depicting the relative strength of the spending constraints placed on the purposes for which resources can be used: Nonspendable fund balance -amounts that are not in a spendable form (such as inventory)or are required to be maintained intact(endowment fund). Restricted fund balance -amounts constrained to specific purposes by their providers (such as grantors, bondholders,and higher levels of government).through constitutional provisions, or by enabling legislation. Committed fund balance -amounts constrained to specific purposes by a government itself,using its highest level of decision-making authority;to be reported as committed, amounts cannot be used for any other purpose unless the government takes the same highest-level action to remove or change the constraint. Assigned fund balance -amounts a government intends to use for a specific purpose; intent can be expressed by the governing body or by an official or body to which the governing body delegates the authority. Unassigned fund balance -amounts that are available for any purpose;these amounts are reported only in the General Fund. There has been no change to the General Fund policy reserve threshold of 25 percent of the subsequent year's expenses (less transfers) other than additional language designating 30 percent as the optimal target.

Monday, May 7, 2012 Consent Agenda: Ordinances and Resolutions - Item 10-B RESOLUTION NO.2012- A RESOLUTION AMENDING THE VILLAGE OF BUFFALO GROVE FUND BALANCE AND RESERVE POLICY WHEREAS, a local government, as part of it's overall policy development, should establish a formal policy regarding the use fund balance that is to be held for both contingencies and for any other approved purpose, and WHEREAS, the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) released Statement No. 54 with the objective to enhance the usefulness of fund balance information by providing clearer fund balance classifications, and: WHEREAS, the adoption of Statement No. 54 will bring consistency in reporting by establishing a fund balance hierarchy by which the Village can access reserve balances WHEREAS, the Village of Buffalo Grove follows GASB pronouncements to ensure sound financial reporting and eligibility for the Government Finance Officers' Association Certificate of Achievement in Financial Reporting; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE PRESIDENT AND BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE VILLAGE OF BUFFALO GROVE, COOK AND LAKE COUNTIES, ILLINOIS as follows: 1. The Village of Buffalo Grove does hereby amend the Fund Balance and Reserve Policy, dated May 7, 2012, and attached hereto. AYES: NAYES: ABSENT: PASSED: APPROVED: ATTEST: APPROVED: Village Clerk Village President Village Of Buffalo Grove Fund Balance and Reserve Policy Definitions Fund Balance—the difference between assets and liabilities in a Governmental Fund. Nonspendable Fund Balance—the portion of a Governmental Fund's net assets that are not available to be spent, either short tern or long term, in either form or through legal restrictions. Restricted Fund Balance—the portion of a Government Fund's net assets that are subject to external enforceable legal restrictions. Committed Fund Balance—the portion of a Governmental Fund's net assets with self-imposed constraints or limitations that have been placed by formal action at the highest level of decision making. Assigned Fund Balance—the portion of a Governmental Fund's net assets to denote an intended use of resources. Unassigned Fund Balance — available expendable financial resources in a Governmental Fund that are not the object of tentative management plan (i.e. designations). (only in the General Fund, unless negative) Note: In Non-Governmental Funds, management may decide to "assign" funds for a specific purpose. This will be done as an internal budgeting procedure rather than as a formal accounting entry, creating a fund automatically assigns fund balance. Policy A. It is the policy of the Village of Buffalo Grove to maintain Committed Fund Balance in the General Fund to fund operations for a period of at least three months. The committed amount in the General Fund is adjusted annually with the adoption of the annual budget and is calculated as three months (25 percent) of General Fund expenditures (excluding transfers to fund capital projects and pensions). During the development of the subsequent year's annual budget, should the Committed Fund Balance be expected to fall below the 25 percent target notification will be given to the Village's Finance Committee. While identified uses of Fund Balance may be proposed that could continue the trend below 25% such uses will be disclosed and approved by the Committee. B. The annual budget (appropriation) will include a contribution to (or drawdown from) the Committed Fund Balance to assure compliance with this policy. The levels of other required restrictions, commitments and assignments will fluctuate depending on activity. C. Unassigned Fund Balance shall be reviewed annually and, where appropriate, a determination will be made as to how much of the unassigned fund balance will be transferred to the Reserves for Capital Replacement. Although the policy minimum is 25 percent for Committed Fund Balance, 30 percent is considered the preferred balance and any unassigned balances exceeding 30 percent will be considered for transfer. D. This policy may be amended from time to time according to the requests of the Village of Buffalo Grove President and Board of Trustees. E. The Village will spend the most restricted dollars before less restricted, in the following order; a. Nonspendable Fund Balance (if funds become spendable) b. Restricted Fund Balance c. Committed Fund Balance d. Assigned Fund Balance e. Unassigned Fund Balance F. The Finance Director will determine if a portion of fund balance should be assigned.

Budget Impact Fund/Account Budget Notes 451-3913 Streetlight Maintenance Overview Staff is requesting authorization to solicit bids for the Village's contractual Street Light Maintenance program. Contract services for this type of maintenance have been in place for the last 15 years and the current 3-year cycle is coming to a conclusion. Staff analysis continues to indicate that it remains cost effective to outsource this maintenance program rather than bring in-house. The proposal would be based upon a 3-year contract with a performance evaluation at the end of each year before awarding the next year's extension. Next Steps Staff would coordinate bidding pending final review of the Bid Documents by the Village Attorney.

Page 1 of 21 See appendix: Appendix002- Street Light Bid Docs 2012.pdf Ordinance No. 2012- : An Ordinance Adopting A Revised Sign Code, Title 14 of the Buffalo Grove Municipal 11-A Code Overview This is a follow-up to the April 16, 2012 Village Board meeting when the proposed Sign Code was presented for Board review and consideration. Based on Board direction,the three changes noted have been incorporated into the updated Sign Code. CHANGES FROM THE APRIL 16TH MEETING: General Sign Design Intent,Chapter 14.04.040,A. 3. The following stricken language has been deleted based on Board feedback: The number of different lettering styles on a sign or on a series of signs should be mirtimized aii should relate to the overall architectural concept of the property. Variances by the Plan Commission, Chapter 14.40.080 The sentence below in italics has been included in the Code to include participation of the Zoning Board of Appeals as part of the Plan Commission sign review. As directed by the Board, the Zoning Board members will not vote on the sign application by the petitioner,thus no change to the structure of the Plan Commission, Chapter 2.46 of the Municipal Code is needed. Except for Prohibited signs (Chapter 14.32), the Plan Commission may recommend approval or disapproval of a variance when a zoning action is being considered by the Plan Commission, including but not limited to the creation of a Uniform Sign Package pursuant to Section 14.16.050 or a Planned Unit Development pursuant to the Village Zoning Ordinance, Title 17. The Plan Commission shall comply with the requirements of this Chapter including but not limited to Section 14.40.010. Members of the Zoning Board ofAppeals shall be invited to attend and participate in the review of Variances by the Plan Commission as set forth herein. Electronic Message Signs, Chapter 14.20.070 Electronic message signs on windows has been deleted. The intent of the proposed change was to allow business owners the opportunity to have a single line of text and to change the message to reflect their business promotions and services, including images and graphics. However, the Code would have prohibited video, animation or moving pictures. The existing (proposed) regulation would not prohibit a business from posting an electronic message sign which displays any message such as "open" of the business phone number in a static manner, provided the message did not change. The following regulation has been stricken from the draft code: C. Electronic message signs on windows are permitted subject to the following requirements: L. Only one electronic message window sign is allowed per business. 2. Window signs shall be limited to a maximum of 6 square feet. 3. Shall be limited to one line of text, and may include images and graphics. 4. Transition from one message to another shall be instantaneous,without movement or other transition effects between messages. 5. Text shall be uniform in color, appearance,and a maximum of 9.25 inch character text any one time. 5. Text shall be uniform in color, appearance,and a maximum of 9.25 inch character text any one time. 6. Messages shall not change more frequently than once every 20 seconds. 7. Window signs shall not display any video, animation or moving pictures or simulate any movement or the optical illusion of movement of any part of the sign text, design or pictorial segment, including the movement of any illumination or the flashing or varying of light intensity. 8. Window signs are permitted subject to Section 14.24.010.R,the approved window surface area for signs. BACKGROUND/HISTORY OF UPDATING THE SIGN CODE: The updated Sign Code reflects feedback and information from Village Board, Plan Commission and Zoning Board officials, residents,businesses owners,property managers and sign professionals. The Code reflects best practices and regulations from neighboring community regulations. Throughout the project, the Village's web site included links to the existing Sign Code, the proposed updated Code, and staff reports and research. The Village's web site is accessible at www.vbg.org. The most recent public meetings have been held as follows: Zoning Board of Appeals December 20, 2011 Plan Commission January 18, 2012 Zoning Board of Appeals February 21, 2012 The Zoning Board recommended approval of the Code subject to two recommendations which were addressed by the Board on March 19, 2012.

Recommendation of Action Staff recommends Approval Overview Buffalo Grove is a member of the NW Suburban Housing Collaborative (NWSCH), along with Arlington Heights, Mount Prospect, Palatine and Rolling Meadows. The members entered into an intergovernmental agreement in August 2011 to share the services of a housing coordinator position funded for one year by the Chicago Community Trust. The housing coordinator has been working on securing additional funding that the communities would share to support on-going projects. In March 2012 the Collaborative was advised that funding is available through a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) administered by the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (IL DCEO). The Village of Arlington Heights, as lead agency for the NWSHC, has filed an application with IL DCEO requesting $120,000. The attached report by Arlington Heights staff provides detailed information concerning the application. The funds would be used to support work on a housing implementation plan based on the recommendations of the Homes for a Changing Region study that the member communities have initiated. There is not cost to the Village of Buffalo Grove concerning the grant that would be provided by IL DCEO. The housing plan would be subject to approval by each municipality concerning recommendations affecting the community. To complete the application process with IL DCEO,the member communities are requested to approve a resolution and intergovernmental cooperation agreement in support of the application by the Village of Arlington Heights. A draft resolution and agreement are attached for the Board's consideration. Next Steps Village participation in the Homes for a Changing Region initiative.

BRAIMAN Village Clerk Village President Date: 3 STAFF REQUEST FOR BOARD ACTION VILLAGE BOARD MEETING DATE: April 16, 2012 Agenda Section: XIII.LEGAL Department of Planning and Community Development Item: Resolution Concerning an Application to the Date Due to Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity's Ike Village Manager: April 11,2012 Planning Grant Program BACKGROUND For several years, representatives from the Villages of Arlington Heights, Mt. Prospect, Palatine, Buffalo Grove and the City of Rolling Meadows met informally to discuss common housing related issues in the area. In early 2011, two grant applications were approved to support this effort: 1) a one-year grant in the amount of$35,000 to be used to hire a consultant to coordinate the activities of the group, and 2) a technical assistance grant (valued at$162,460) from the Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning (CMAP) to work with the communities on performing a"Homes for a Changing Region" study intended to identify the future housing needs of the area. In order to accept these resources, the municipalities entered into an Intergovernmental Agreement(dated August 11, 2011) and formed the Northwest Suburban Housing Collaborative (the "Collaborative"). DCEO GRANT APPLICATION A funding source, requiring no matching funds from the Village, has been identified that could support the continued work of the Collaborative beyond its first year. The source is the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity's (DCEO) Community Development Block Grant Ike Planning Program. The majority of the program funds under the DCEO Ike Program are targeted toward activities such as flood mitigation, infrastructure improvements, etc. However, a relatively small amount of the funding is more flexible, including the $6,000,000 available through the DCEO Ike Planning Program. Projects under this DCEO planning grant program are to be used to support the development and adoption of plans that address housing/community development, economic development, infrastructure, transportation, and environmental preservation. Plans may elect to focus on one or more of these areas such as the area of housing and housing-related needs which is the mission of the Collaborative. Although the Collaborative communities were not significantly impacted by the 2008 storms from Hurricane Ike, the Collaborative is an eligible applicant for the planning grant program because there was some storm impact and they are located within Cook County or Lake County, which were identified as a counties impacted by the storm. All local governments in Cook County and Lake County are among the jurisdictions eligible for this funding. The application period for the DCEO grant was very tight. The Village of Arlington Heights (as the Collaborative's lead municipality) submitted a tentative application contingent upon the support of the Village Boards and City Council within the Collaborative area. DCEO acknowledged that the quick turnaround time for this application process would not afford most municipalities time prior to submission to finalize Council and Board adoption of the necessary resolutions. Summary of the DCEO Application: Grant Request and Timeline: $120,000 is requested. Work under this grant application would occur during calendar year 2013. Matching Funds:unds: No matching funds from the municipalities are required or have been pledged. On the contrary, if approved, a portion of the grant funds may be available to cover some planning costs of the municipalities. The value of the Homes for a Changing Region process ($162,480)was listed on the application as a match. The Homes process is also occurring at no cost to the municipalities. Uses of Funds: To support the work of the Northwest Suburban Housing Collaborative beyond its first year by following up on information and strategies accepted by the municipalities through the Homes for a Changing Region process. Only those policies and recommendations that are approved by the Village Boards and Council will be included in the final Homes report and incorporated into the implementation planning that would be funded under the DCEO grant. The standard Homes for a Changing Region addresses "sustainability" which will touch on general information about the municipalities' flood prone areas and the topic of storm water management. In the preliminary application to the DCEO an example of a strategy that might be developed would be to conduct a public education program concerning ways for residential property owners to slow the flow of water into the storm water systems. The grant is not intended, and will not be used, for flood mitigation studies and infrastructure and will have no impact on the municipalities' flood management practices or capital improvement budgets. At first glance the DCEO Ike Planning Program appeared to be an unlikely fit for the work of the Collaborative. However, discussions with DCEO revealed that the Collaborative's work is consistent with this relatively small and limited planning component of DCEO's overall program. Further, the DCEO criteria for this planning grant program affords extra points to applications submitted by inter jurisdictional collaborations such as the Northwest Suburban Housing Collaborative. RECOMMENDATION IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE VILLAGE BOARD OF TRUSTEES APPROVE A RESOLUTION 1) AUTHORIZING THE SUBMISSION OF THE APPLICATION TO THE DCEO CDBG DISASTER RECOVERY PROGRAM(SPECIFICALLY THE DCEO IKE PLANNING PROGRAM),2)AUTHORIZING EXECUTION OF THE INTERGOVERNMENTAL COOPERATION AGREEMENT, 3) AUTHORIZING THE VILLAGE MANAGER TO EXECUTE DOCUMENTS(INCLUDING THE APPLICANT CERTIFICATIONS)NECESSARY TO CARRY OUT SAID APPLICATION,AND 4)AUTHORIZING THE VILLAGE MANAGER TO PROVIDE SUCH ADDITIONAL INFORMATION TO THE DCEO AS MAY BE REQUIRED TO ACCOMPLISH THE OBTAINING OF SUCH GRANT.

Recommendation of Action Staff recommends approval. Overview Randy Poznansky, 528 Buckthorn Terrace, is a requesting a variation of the Development Ordinance concerning the width of the driveway apron at the street curbline. The variation pertains to Section 16.50.080.A.2.b of the Village Development Ordinance. The request is to allow the apron to exceed the standard width at the curbline. The ordinance allows a width of 21 feet; the apron as constructed is approximately 26 feet. Mr. Poznansky's driveway apron was originally installed at 26 feet when the subdivision was developed. The attached memo from Brian Sheehan, Deputy Building Commissioner, reviews the recent permits pertaining to Mr. Poznansky's driveway and apron. The Plan Commission conducted a public hearing on April 4, 2012 and voted 5 to 3 to recommend approval of the variation. The draft ordinance, Plan Commission minutes, and documents concerning the variation are attached.

AYES: NAYS: ABSENT: PASSED: APPROVED: ATTEST: APPROVED: Village Clerk Jeffrey S. Braiman, Village President 2 Draft Plan Commission minutes— Regular Meeting—April 4, 2012 POZNANSKY PROPERTY, 528 BUCKTHORN TERRACE — VARIATION OF DEVELOPMENT ORDINANCE CONCERNING WIDTH AND TAPER OF DRIVEWAY APRON IN THE PUBLIC PARKWAY Moved by Commissioner Weinstein, seconded by Commissioner Stark to recommend approval to the Village Board of the petition for the property at 528 Buckthorn Terrace for a variation of Section 16.50.080.A.2.b. of the Village Development Ordinance concerning the width of a driveway apron in the public parkway to allow the apron to remain the apron as constructed rather than removing the portion that is currently in violation of the ordinance. Commissioner Weinstein stated this is a struggle for him because there are the conflicting issues of complying with the ordinance and acknowledging the circumstance that the apron was originally constructed wider than 21 feet. The curb cut width is an issue — there was a 26 foot curb cut and now the property owner would have to reduce it to 21 feet, which is an appearance issue for the resident. He said is leaning toward voting "no" and requiring the apron to be brought into conformance with the current ordinance standard. Commissioner Johnson stated that because of the way things happened and because the property had a 26 foot apron and curb cut, she will vote in favor of the motion. Commissioner Bocek stated that based on the information presented it seems as though the driveway was having issues well before the Village poured this new curb. At some point you were going to have to replace your driveway anyway and it just happed that this new curb expedited the situation. The ordinances and codes are written for a particular reason. Typically she is not a fan of making exceptions to that unless there is a hardship and she does not see the hardship in this case because you could put sod there and have it look nice without having a problem. Therefore she will not be voting in favor. Commissioner Cohn noted this is a very sympathetic petitioner who is trying to do the right thing and trying to make the house look nice and the Village somewhat led them down the path that this is what you are going to be left with. The petitioner tried to make the best of the situation the Village created when it repaired the street. We should be supporting and encouraging people who are trying to do the right thing and working cooperatively with the Village and this is a situation where an exception is warranted. He agrees the code is there for a reason but believes the Village has the discretion to be sympathetic in certain factual situations and this is one of them. He noted he had previously stated that the Village needs to figure out how it is going to implement this going forward because it will not be the first time we have a problem and he does not see much value in having to come together with all these people every time we have this kind of problem to evaluate it on a case by case basis. It is not productive and better way needs to be found. Commissioner Stark noted the memo which states that there are many driveways which are out of compliance and we will need to find a way to figure out something with all these driveway 1 issues. Chairman Smith stated he agrees with Commissioner Cohn. This is a sympathetic petitioner and as long as we are going case by case on these and there are reasons for this and the reasons are creditable then we will just have to wait until the system is changed and in this case he feels the variance is warranted so he will be voting in favor of the motion. Chairman Smith called for a vote on the motion and the vote was as follows: AYES: Stark, Cohn, Myer, Johnson, Smith NAYES: Bocek, Khan, Weinstein ABSENT: None ABSTAIN: None The motion passed 5 to 3. 2 DRAFT PUBLIC HEARING BUFFALO GROVE PLAN COMMISSION April 4, 2012 Variation of Section 16.50.080.A.2.b of the Village Development Ordinance Concerning the width of a driveway apron in the public parkway 528 Buckthorn Terrace Chairman Smith called the hearing to order at 7:30 pm in the Village Council Chambers, Buffalo Grove Municipal Building, 50 Raupp Boulevard, Buffalo Grove, Illinois. Chairman Smith read the Notice of Public Hearing as published in the Buffalo Grove Daily Herald, explained the procedure to be followed for the public hearing, and swore in all persons who wished to give testimony. Commissioners present: Chairman Smith Ms. Bocek Mr. Khan Mr. Stark Mr. Cohn Ms. Myer Mr. Weinstein Ms.Johnson Commissioner absent: None Also present: Mr. Randy Poznansky Ms. Beverly Sussman, Village Trustee Mr. Andy Stein, Village Trustee Mr. William Raysa, Village Attorney Mr. William Kuenkler, Village Engineer Mr. Robert Pfeil, Village Planner The following exhibits were presented by the petitioner at the public hearing: Exhibit 1: Memo from Mr. Pfeil to the Plan Commission dated March 29, 2012 containing photos 1 through 5 of existing pavers showing the match up with the curb poured by the Village Exhibit 2: Packet of letters from neighbors adjacent to this home and across the street noting acceptance of the apron as constructed Buffalo Grove Plan Commission — Public Hearing—April 4, 2012 - Page 1 of 11 Exhibit 3: Anonymous letter dated March 29, 2012 sent to the Village Exhibit 4: Photo of driveway Exhibit 5: Aerial Photo of with driveway apron measurements Exhibit 6: Photo noting shadow of adjacent mailbox area and west side paver area Mr. Poznansky stated he lives at 528 Buckthorn Terrace and has lived there for 25 years. He stated the problem with this apron began in 2011 when the Village replaced the curb and street in front of their home. Once the curb was poured they noticed there was an increased curb height of about 1 % inches along the west side of their apron and the parkway. This difference was high enough to create an area for rain water to pool and not drain off the apron or parkway into the street. It also created a tripping hazard between the parkway area and the mailbox. Mr. Poznansky stated that following seven months of discussions with the Village and early in December, 2011 the Village finally helped them correct the problem in the apron area caused by the higher curb. During the replacement planning process they found out that the 26 % foot apron width could not be maintained and would have to be reduced to Village code of 221 feet. He noted they did not want to deal with the ice build up during the winter and there was not sufficient time to go through a multi-month variance process and therefore they accepted the reduced width design in order to get the apron as well as the replacement of the driveway poured while the weather was still warm enough to do it. Mr. Poznansky noted the concrete was poured in December of 2011 and soon after that they found the driveway had an unfinished look and the location of their garbage cans were becoming problematic for easy egress to the street. Therefore in January of 2012 they lined the apron with decorative pavers with an approximate 3 foot wide paver platform on the east and west side of the apron. This dressed up an awkward looking apron and also allows a safer place for them to position their garbage cans. During the installation process they were advised by the Village inspector that regardless of the intent of the pavers they would be considered a driveway and apron expansion. Mr. Poznansky stated that in a desire to comply with as many Village guidelines as possible while the inspector was there they made many costly changes to reduce the width at the sidewalk for both the driveway and apron to be within Village standards. Understanding that there was no consistency in the neighborhood to be within the 21 foot width requirement it seemed reasonable from an appearance standpoint to match the existing curb opening that the Village poured eight months earlier in May, 2011. Therefore they cut back and removed a significant portion of the pavers lining up with the curb opening. None of this work was done with the intent to circumvent any permits or Village codes but rather to Buffalo Grove Plan Commission — Public Hearing—April 4, 2012 - Page 2 of 11 beautify the front yard and allow them a safer place for their garbage cans. Mr. Poznansky stated the work was done during the middle of the week in daylight and at times that made it clearly visible to many of the Village vehicles that often travel the street. It was also during a time period when they knew the Village would be returning to evaluate the sidewalk segments that were also recently replaced in front of their home. Mr. Poznansky requested they be allowed to keep the apron as constructed which matches the width of the original apron that existed at the end of the driveway for the past 30 years. It creates a familiar and safer place for their garbage cans and makes the entrance to their drive have an improved look and they request approval of this variance. Commissioner Cohn asked if the new curb cut that was poured was wider than 21 feet. Mr. Poznansky stated yes, it was 26 % feet. Commissioner Cohn noted that they cut a 26 foot curb cut and they paved to a 21 foot curb cut. He asked what if they just left the other 5 feet as dirt. Mr. Poznansky stated yes. Commissioner Cohn asked the petitioner to describe what the 5 feet of unpaved and undeveloped portion was like. Mr. Poznansky stated it was just dirt and he could not put any sod or grass in because it was December. To try to fit in the 25 foot width made the opening look strange. Commissioner Cohn asked if the petitioner knew why the Village did not do a 21 foot curb cut. Mr. Poznansky stated that at the time when the street was replaced that was the width of his apron. He noted he did not have a problem with his apron until the new curb was poured and the height difference was noticeable. He certain would not have been replacing the apron unless the curb was a problem. He understood as he had been told that he could only have 21 feet and when he put the pavers in he had no clue that it would be a driveway or apron expansion. He just did it to beautify the apron. Commissioner Stark asked what was there before the pavers. Mr. Poznansky stated dirt. Commissioner Stark noted that therefore on either side of the apron there was just dirt and grass. Buffalo Grove Plan Commission — Public Hearing—April 4, 2012 - Page 3 of 11 Mr. Poznansky stated before the new apron was put in there was grass or sod on either side and it looked good. Commissioner Khan asked Mr. Kuenkler if the curb on both sides of the street was 100 percent replaced or if replacement was only where needed. Mr. Kuenkler stated it was 100 percent. Commissioner Khan noted that therefore the entire width of the petitioner's curb was depressed for his apron. Mr. Kuenkler stated that was correct. Commissioner Khan stated it seems to him that the curb that was repoured after removing the existing one matched with the width of the old apron. Mr. Poznansky stated that was correct. Commissioner Khan noted that when the petitioner got the permit from the Village which said he could not have a 26 foot wide apron at the curb and it would have to be cut back to 21 feet there was a longer depressed curb on either side of the apron which seemed odd. Mr. Poznansky stated it was very odd. Commissioner Khan noted that typically when the Village does that and the apron is now 21 feet instead of 26 feet it is the Village's responsibility because the parkway is their land. They would have come back and have made the repairs to the apron and would have put either seed or sod instead of leaving the parkway in such a condition. So while you are claiming that it looked very odd perhaps it was just a matter of time until the Village would have repaired the parkway. Mr. Poznansky stated he assumed that it would be himself that would end up resodding that and was not expecting the Village to do the work. To him it looked very odd the way the driveway was laid out and they were trying to dress it up with these pavers along the apron and driveway with the intent to have a more reasonable flow and to have a place for their garbage cans. Commissioner Khan asked why the petitioner did not make another attempt to go back to Village staff and show and discuss with them as to what should be done. He asked why the petitioner took it upon himself to put the apron back to 26 feet. Mr. Poznansky stated that if he had thought what he was doing was wrong he would definitely have done that. He stated staff is wonderful to work with but he really did not think he was Buffalo Grove Plan Commission — Public Hearing—April 4, 2012 - Page 4 of 11 doing anything wrong. Commissioner Khan stated it seems to him that when staff members met on site and explained what the Village code required and he agreed and signed and then picked up the permit to build the apron per Village code he then took it upon himself to put the pavers back. Mr. Poznansky stated there were no pavers there to begin with. I honestly did not view the pavers as a driveway but as a decorative finish to the driveway and apron itself. The pavers actually extended past the curb opening when he first put them in. If he was looking for trouble he certainly would not have gone beyond the 26 % foot original width. He had another three feet on either side of the apron just for a decorative look. But then staff came by and stated it was a problem and while he was there he had the landscapers start cutting up all the pavers near the sidewalk for both the driveway and apron and then at the curb level to try to bring to code at the sidewalk but bring it within what he thought was reasonable at the apron level knowing that he would probably have to come forth and ask for a variance. Commissioner Khan stated he would prefer to have more grassy area than a hard surface. He noted his dilemma centers on where the Village starts to apply the Village ordinance as there will always be some that will fall outside of the code. The Village had a cut off date noting that anything prior to this date is a legal non-conforming driveway but going forward from that date everyone applying for driveway or apron permits must meet the Village ordinance. Mr. Poznansky stated he understood that but their intent was not to circumvent the code at the time. It was just to beautify and make apron area more functional so they had a place for garbage cans and it looked reasonable. Had they left it the way it was people pulling into the driveway would probably be following the opening in the curb and they would be driving over the grass all the time. We just wanted to make it look reasonable. The apron drawing has a sort of opposite flow to the way you would normally drive into the driveway. He noted they made an attempt to bring it back as close to code as possible. They did not want to rip it all out and felt if they could just leave it to the existing opening in the curb that was there it would not be offensive to anyone and that is why he is here tonight. Commissioner Bocek noted that the Village is not questioning the pavers that are on each side of the actual driveway and asked if the only question is with regards to the apron width. Mr. Pfeil stated that is correct. It is a Development Ordinance variation for the portion that is in the public parkway. Commissioner Bocek then noted that the actual driveway is in conformance even with the pavers. Mr. Pfeil stated that is correct. He noted that the driveway expansion was done pursuant to the permit issued by the Village. The improvement complies with the applicable zoning Buffalo Grove Plan Commission — Public Hearing—April 4, 2012 - Page 5 of 11 regulations that pertain to the private property side of the sidewalk. Commissioner Bocek stated it looks to her that the 21 feet dimension is actually larger than the 23 feet 9 inches. She asked if that is just a distortion on the photo or did someone actually measure this. Mr. Pfeil stated that staff from the Building and Zoning department did field measurements, so the numbers are correct, although the photo drawing might be somewhat visually misleading in terms of how wide the apron appears. Mr. Poznansky stated it is actually wider at the sidewalk which is allowable. Commissioner Bocek asked what does the Village tell the next twenty people should this approval be granted. Mr. Poznansky noted there was another person some time ago who received approval and he is not sure of what the board said in approval of that one. He would hope they would say the same thing in support of what he is trying to do here. He just tries to have his property looking good for the neighborhood and that was his intent. Commissioner Bocek asked where do you draw the line. The ordinance was changed because people have more cars and kids with cars and she is not buying the fact that a bigger driver is needed here just for the garbage cans. Mr. Poznansky noted once again that it was just a change look to it and did not seem finished. Commissioner Johnson stated her question was regarding the safety and she is trying to understand the timeline. As she understands it the Village came in and repaired the street and put in a new curb with the old apron which was wider. Then the petitioner went in and put in a new apron which was narrower. Who is responsible then if you put in a narrower apron to have the curb match the new apron that is within code? Should the homeowner do that when they are putting in a new apron or does the Village go back and repair it as part of public works and correct safety issues? Mr. Poznansky reviewed a photo showing the height difference between the new curb and the old apron which is 26 % feet wide. This is what started the whole chain of events to occur. You can see how the water is building up and they were concerned about what would happen in the winter when all that water would turn into ice. That is when they went to the Village and the Village elected to assist them to replace the apron. They paid for part of it and he paid for part of it. Throughout the entire neighborhood and other streets the curb entrances were very smooth. At our home it was not correctly and he had a choice to either live with it or try to correct. He opted to correct because it would have been a problem during the winter. He noted in the photo how much higher the curb is in the parkway area where the water was Buffalo Grove Plan Commission — Public Hearing—April 4, 2012 - Page 6 of 11 building up as well. There is about a 1 % inch difference between the level of the curb and the apron. He stated his asphalt driveway was not perfect and did not need to be replaced immediately although it was coming to that so he thought he would do the driveway as long as he was getting this new apron. During the planning stage of the new driveway he was told he could not have the 26 % feet but 21 feet instead. Commissioner Johnson asked why the curb cuts were not corrected at the same time since he was working with the Village. Mr. Poznansky stated they just matched the curbs with the new apron. The curbs stayed the same. Commissioner Johnson then asked where the safety issue was. Mr. Poznansky noted the mailbox is just to the left and every time you walk to the mailbox it is a tripping point. Commissioner Johnson noted that had been corrected. Mr. Poznansky said yes. Commissioner Johnson noted that if the petitioner had just put seed or sod in where the old apron was there would be no tripping issue. Mr. Poznansky stated there was not a safety issue as far as tripping after the new apron was poured. The only problem was about 2 % feet of the space being looked at was not driveway any more and that is typically where they put their garbage cans and that space was gone so driving out the cans were in the way. Also the apron did not look good to them afterwards nor did the rest of the driveway so they put in the decorative pavers along either side and along the driveway. Commissioner Johnson asked if seed or sod would not have made it look good. Mr. Poznansky stated it would have helped but it still did not look right to them. If they thought it would look good they would not have invested all the money they did in putting the pavers in. Commissioner Johnson noted she has a recently expanded driveway and went through the process with the Village and they have the standard 21 foot driveway and lots of garbage cans and they still manage to back out around them without an issue so she is not sure she completely agrees about the garbage cans. Mr. Poznansky stated it was one of the things they experienced going from their 26 % feet Buffalo Grove Plan Commission — Public Hearing—April 4, 2012 - Page 7 of 11 down to the 21 feet. Commissioner Cohn asked the petitioner if anyone from the Village stated that when the project was finished they would come back and put in 5 more feet of curb and resod the parkway. Mr. Poznansky stated no. Commissioner Cohn asked staff why no one offered that to the petitioner. Mr. Kuenkler stated they would not do that. Commissioner Cohn then noted the Village was telling the petitioner that he needed to put in a 21 foot wide apron but 5 feet of curb gap would be left and that was just the way it was going to be. Mr. Kuenkler stated they have never done it. Commissioner Cohn asked if there are driveways right now in the Village where there is depressed curb that is wider than the width of the apron. Mr. Kuenkler stated yes and it is normal when someone replaces their driveway to bring it within code. Commissioner Cohn asked if it is a good policy for the Village to leave an unfinished looking curb cut and parkway after driveways are restored to 21 feet in these kinds of situations or would a better policy be for the Village to come and re-landscape the parkways to make it conform as it should. Commissioner Cohn noted he does not understand why you would cut a curb 26 feet and then tell someone to pave the driveway 21 feet and then not offer to restore the parkway that is owned by the Village. It just does not make sense and he is very sympathetic to the petitioner who was basically cleaning up the mess that the Village would not repair. He asked if a homeowner could hire a cement contractor to put in curb. Mr. Kuenkler stated you could, but it would probably not be a good idea as it would disturb the street pavement and produce more headaches. Commissioner Khan noted the Village came first and did the repairs of the curb and the street and then when there was lip between the back of the curb and the apron that was holding back the water the petitioner decided to replace the whole apron. The Village would not have left that apron with a 1 % lip. They would have cut back part of the apron and repoured the apron so that it matched with the back of the curb. However, the petitioner initiated a request or Buffalo Grove Plan Commission — Public Hearing—April 4, 2012 - Page 8 of 11 discussion to cut a deal with the Village to do this project and get a whole new apron. Mr. Poznansky stated it was a big uphill 7 month long problem to get this problem corrected. It was his decision to replace the driveway as he thought since there was a construction guy already out there who was going to be pouring concrete so he might as well replace it since it would be needed soon enough. At the same time there were some problems with the sidewalk which the Village allowed the contractor to repair while he was there. That is how things started. Commissioner Khan noted that if the petitioner had not got involved with the total replacement of the apron the Village would have done the project including the restoration. What happened here the Village had negotiated a deal with the petitioner to contribute some money toward the replacement of the apron and at that point the Village project was over and the petitioner's project began. So anything that was done after that negotiation ended was the petitioner's project and the Village presumed they were done with the project. Had he not done a total replacement of the apron the Village would have cut back part of the apron, matched it with the back of the curb and had the restoration done on both sides. This is his understanding. Chairman Smith stated there were some assumptions that he would like to get confirmation about from the Village. Is what Commissioner Khan said true? Mr. Kuenkler stated he was never involved entirely. The street project is his but what transpired over seven months he was not involved with until the driveway permit. He may have heard some talk about this deal but not many details. Chairman Smith asked if the Village would have come in and redone or finished up some of the issues being spoken about before the petitioner had gone ahead. Mr. Kuenkler noted that part of the thing complicating the issues here is that the driveway had been settling for a long time. It was not flush with the curb that was built in the street improvement project.There was some discussion about why they could not match it. The petitioner is correct that on some properties in the subdivision the curb and apron are at the same level. He stated he is not sure you could have taken a piece of that driveway out because it is very flat from the sidewalk to the curb. Commissioner Stark asked the petitioner if he had to move the mailbox. Mr. Poznansky stated no. Mr. Raysa noted the photo was number one and was included in Mr. Pfeil's packet and is labeled as the west side view of the pavers. Buffalo Grove Plan Commission — Public Hearing—April 4, 2012 - Page 9 of 11 Commissioner Stark asked what the hardship is here that requires asking for a variance. Mr. Poznansky stated the hardship would be a cost standpoint to remove the pavers and to deal with less clearance than what they have had for 25 years. Commissioner Johnson asked what the purpose of having a curb is about if we do not need to have it in some instances or do not bother to replace it in some instances then is it for safety or to keep your seed and grass in. You stated she can see how the petitioner might feel that it is not safe as a car could drive right up without a curb to stop the car and it might be difficult to grow grass there as it would wash out into the streets. It seems as if all the rules are being followed but the rules are not working together. She stated she does not know why the Village cannot put that five feet of curb back in if they are going to require the smaller driveway. Mr. Kuenkler noted that it would just disturb the brand new pavement. Commissioner Bocek asked the petitioner if he contracted for both the apron and the driveway and did he pay for both. Mr. Poznansky stated he paid for all of the driveway and about 50 percent of the apron. Commissioner Cohn what happens when a street is being repaved and you come across a non- conforming driveway what is done with the curb cut. Is the curb cut put back in with the width of the non-conforming driveway or is the person notified and asked what he is going to do about it. Mr. Kuenkler stated that what happens often is they match the aprons and do not put the full curb and the depressions are created indirectly by matching the driveways that have largely settled. When you go through the subdivision some are matching extremely well, some will have the full roll curb and some will have a depressed curb and some are somewhere in between. Commissioner Cohn noted that if someone was in the process of re-evaluating their driveway at the same time that the Village was repaving the street, it seem as if that would be a situation where they should be in sync because the person putting in a new driveway should be wanting a 21 foot cut and the Village would be repaving the street with a 21 foot cut. But if someone has a driveway that is 26 feet wide that they will fix later and the Village puts in a 26 foot cut and then leaves the driveway in a condition where the homeowner feels it is necessary to fix their driveway because it does not look right now, they are stuck because they will be left with this five foot curb cut that is really inappropriate and there is no good remedy for that. Mr. Poznansky stated he would not have replaced his apron if he did not have this problem that was created. He would have replaced his driveway but not his apron. He reiterated he did not Buffalo Grove Plan Commission — Public Hearing—April 4, 2012 - Page 10 of 11 know it was going to go from 26 %feet down to 21 feet until the eleventh hour. Ms. Heidi Goetting at 422 Buckthorn Terrace stated she feels their driveway looks lovely and given that the curb cut is wider doing something like this makes the best of the situation. She noted she was not asked to come but volunteered to come and they should be allowed to leave the pavers in. There being no further comments or questions from anyone else present, Chairman Smith closed the public hearing at 8:25 pm.

I will INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM k TO: ROBERT PFEIL FROM: BRIAN SHEEHAN SUBJECT: HISTORY OF THE DRIVEWAY APRON AT 528 BUCKTHORN. DATE: MARCH 29, 2012 The owner of 528 Buckthorn, Mr. Randy Poznansky, applied for a driveway permit in December 2011. The original submittal included an oversized driveway and apron. Staff met with Mr. Pozansky and he was instructed as to how large the driveway could be constructed and approved for permit. Mr. Pozansky modified his submittal and was issued a permit for a driveway that was in conformance with both the Zoning and Development Ordinance. This driveway was constructed, inspected, approved and the permit closed on 12-13-2011. The Engineering Department brought to our attention that the driveway had been enlarged with brick pavers and was no longer in conformance with the Zoning or Development Ordinance. After discussing the issue with Mr. Poznansky he was able to make some modifications to bring the driveway portion into compliance with the Zoning Ordinance, but requested to leave the apron at the width that it has always been, 26 feet at the curb. He was advised that a variance to the Development Ordinance would be required in order to leave the driveway apron at its current dimensions. In reviewing the history of this particular driveway, it appears that when this driveway apron was originally constructed, it was constructed larger than is allowed by the Development Ordinance. There are a number of driveways within this subdivision that appear to have been originally constructed larger than allowed by the Development Ordinance. This driveway was originally constructed with a width of 26 feet at the curb, similar in size to the current variance request. Other homeowners within this subdivision have modified their driveways and brought them into conformance with the Zoning and Development Ordinances when replacing the driveway and apron. Others have chosen to replace the driveway portion only, and not replace the apron in order to maintain the apron at its current dimensions.

We are Buffalo Grove residents who live on a nearby street. We understand that the Plan Commission will consider this request at the April 4, 2012 meeting. A resident should not alter their property without the proper permits and then be allowed to keep the change. This is especially improper went the construction is made on the village right-of-way. We believe that it sets a bad precedent. It tells other residents to make any change that they want and, if caught,the village will approve the work. We would like to see the driveway returned to compliance with village code. Allowing the resident to keep the driveway in its current state and return it to code at a later date,when future improvements or repairs are made, is not acceptable. If you allow this unauthorized change, how is Buffalo Grove different from the nearby unincorporated areas? Please share this letter with the members of the Plan Commission. We thank the commission, in advance,for their attention and consideration.

Recommendation of Action Staff recommends Referral to the Plan Commission Overview Buchanan Energy proposes to re-build the gas station and convenience store, including the addition of a car wash facility. The property is zoned B-3 Planned Business Center District. The parcel includes the existing gas station and convenience store, and the vacant building at 1250 Arlington Heights Road. The Village approved a plan for a re-build in 2004 for an ExxonMobil facility;the project did not proceed. The site plan included a separate car wash building on the east side of the property. The proposed plan includes a new convenience store of 4,200 square feet and a car wash facility. The car wash structure (2,135 sq.ft), housing a 110-foot conveyor facility, would adjoin the north side of the convenience store. The closest residential building in the Spoerlein Farm subdivision would be 91 feet from the car wash. The petitioner indicates that sound from the car wash equipment would not be a nuisance for adjacent residents because the entry and exit doors would face east and west rather than north toward the Spoerlem subdivision. The Village Zoning Ordinance allows an "automobile laundry"in the B-4 District. An automobile laundry is permitted to process more than one motor vehicle in the building at one time. A "car wash" is allowed in the B-2 and B-3 Districts, and is permitted to process only one vehicle at a time. The petitioner requests that the Zoning Ordinance be amended to allow an automobile laundry as a special use in the B-3 District to accommodate the proposed facility, which would have more than one vehicle at a time on the conveyor within the structure. The Plan Commission review would include evaluation of noise and lighting issues,visual screening from the adjacent residential area, and traffic access. The plan approved in 2004 eliminated driveway access to Courtland Drive in the northwest portion of the site. The proposed plan maintains the Courtland connection; this would be evaluated in the traffic study. The petitioner should provide information concerning the stormwater management plan. The requested approvals include: 1. Amendment of the Planned Unit Development and approval of a Preliminary Plan 2. Zoning variations to allow a landscaped yard of 10.5 feet instead of 12 feet along McHenry Road and Arlington Heights Road 3. Amendment of the Village Zoning Ordinance to allow an automobile laundry as a special use in the B-3 District 4. Approval of a special use for an automobile laundry in the B-3 District The Petition for Concept and Preliminary Plan Review,project narrative and proposed plans are attached. Next Steps Referral of petition to Plan Commission for review and recommendation. Prior Actions Approval of re-build(Ord No. 2004-31) Anticipated Future Board Actions Consideration of Plan Commission recommendations concerning petition.

The company was founded in 1980 and has steadily grown into the largest gas/convenience store operator in the Omaha market. It is a privately owned entity. In December 2010, Buchanan Energy Company purchased all 81 convenience store and gas station assets of Exxon Mobil Corporation in the Chicago market. The site at 1248 McHenry Road was included in that purchase. Under the purchase agreement with Exxon Mobil, certain improvements must be made to facilities. As part of its strategy, Buchanan has identified sites that, with appropriate capital investment, would exhibit a growth in business. The Buffalo Grove site is one of these locations. This is what brings us to the Village to seek approval to re-construct this existing station into a new facility. However, it is important to note that Buchanan's strategies differ from those of Exxon-Mobil and the site plan reflects those. Buchanan views it's business as a convenience and designs its facilities to support that goal. On this site, that means offering an adequate number of fueling positions to support the expected business. In addition, we have designed the facility using "dive-in" islands, which allows customers to access and leave fueling positions efficiently. The number of fueling positions is determined by the business expected to be generated by the site. We will also construct a state of the art Bucky's convenience store. This 4200 square foot facility will offer our customers a wide variety of food and beverage items, in addition to the usual items found in similar stores. The site offers ample "head-in" parking, a feature deemed important by convenience store customers. Parking is also provided for employees on the west side of the site. Finally, the site features a 110 foot long conveyor car wash. This system requires a car to be placed by the driver on a conveyor system. The vehicle is then pushed through the car wash equipment at a controlled rate of travel. All of the mechanical aspects of the car wash, including the entire conveyor, is enclosed within the building. In order to construct the new facility, we will be seeking several variations from the zoning code. These include: • Text Amendment to allow an Automobile Laundry as a Special Use in B-3 zoning District. A car wash is allowed in B-3 (by right), while an automobile laundry is only allowed in a B-4 district. I would note that the Shell location on the northwest corner of the intersection is zoned similarly and has a similar car wash. • Special use to allow construction of a Automobile Laundry on this site. • Variation to allow for a reduction in the transition yard between a business district and a residential district from 25 feet to a minimum of 8.79 feet. This variation indicates the closest point of the car wash to the property line. This actually borders the right-of-way for Courtland Drive. The portion of the development that is closest to an actual residential unit is significantly outside the required setback. • Variation to allow a reduction in the required landscaping along a right of way. 25 feet is required, but based on the setback, that can be reduced to 12 feet along Mc Henry Road. We are proposing 10.5 feet on both rights of way. We appreciate the opportunity to bring this project forward and ask that it be referred to the Plan Commission to begin the process of having it approved.
