We are seeking a zoning variance for an existing structure that has been part of this house since 1989 and is now in need of rebuilding due to multiple water leaks. We bought this small ranch home in 2019 and the room is the reason my wife wanted this home. Being that the Cr home is small this addition would give our children a place to play. Also, if they wanted to be outside to play we would be able to work from inside this room and still be able to have full view of our children while working. Not being able to have this room would take this all away .0 from them and in addition to this it would also lower the value of our home making us lose money. We would greatly appreciate your granting of a variance for our home. cu Sincerely, co Jack & Mercy Lillie cu co CU (n 21 0 X CD CD rn CD W 9 CA CA CU (n 21 0 X CD CD rn (n CL CU CO CO Packet Pg. 6 2.1.b +` FOUND 1" IRON PIPE V� %RiCr ar > FOUND 1" IRON PIPE �� 7- 1 I i.

Recommendation of Action Staff recommends approval of the requests, subject to the conditions in the attached staff report.

Y ca COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Village of Buffalo Grove Comprehensive Plan calls for this 3 property to be a commercial use. 0 N N L PROJECT BACKGROUND The subject site is a �f�� / �� j o corner/through lot that is approximately 0.98 acres „��`, r� �G�/l�� j �j�� > 42,935 square feet and is % /�� r r- zoned B-3 Planned Business Center District. The property is currently developed with �aone- �l� �l (A story commercial building that " 1�, �% � � c r / ;�` ' ' �2 0 is approximately 6,875 square ��//�� f ��, ,�� t) feet and occupied by Mi Mexico / yk o1 j 0 Restaurant. The restaurant is / ja f Q serviced by an ancillary parking lot which is accessible via three j»i Ofl r N driveways; one located on Milwaukee Avenue, Prague Avenue, and Columbus " %j / *` f "` %' °jf l � �kjrrl,r Parkway. Mi Mexico had a freestandingfrjf ground sign that was located next to the southeast corner of the building near the Milwaukee Road driveway, situated along the east property line. According to the Petitioner, the sign was 17 feet tall and had a sign area of 50 square feet per sign face. The previous sign did not comply with the maximum permitted sign height of 15 feet or the Packet Pg. 15 2.2.a minimum setback requirement for a ground sign. Ground signs are required to be setback from the property line the same distance as the height of the sign or a minimum of 10 feet, whichever is greater. This previous sign (namely the base and stand) was existing when the Village annexed the property in the early 2000s as Weber Grill.The sign was granted a variance upon annexation, however per the Annexation Agreement, if the sign is damaged to the extent of 50% or greater of its value, it is required to conform with code or seek variations as necessary. L On March 18, 2021, Mi Mexico's freestanding sign was knocked down during a windstorm. It was determined by an independent analysis conducted by a professional firm hired by the Petitioner that the sign was improperly � oy sealed at the base � cx allowing water and salt to °1 seep into the sign � r r nRa a 1U structure and corrode the main support beam. At c this time the Petitioner is % // " > seeking approval to install / i �l , fo %%`° � � o a new, internally illuminated ground sign that will be 15 feet tall, �J� �r 3 and 50 square feet in area i%/ / per sign dace. � � c N O w The Petitioner is also requesting approval to place the new sign in the exact location of the prior sign so 0 that they do not have to relocate the underground wiring for the sign. Since this would be a completely new sign, the Petitioner is required by code to comply with all current requirements, including the minimum 15-foot setback for a 15-foot-tall ground sign, and installation of landscaping around the base of the sign. As a result, the Planning and Zoning Commission must review, and the Village Board must °' approve the following prior to construction of the sign: L Variations from Title 14 (Sign Code), Section 14.16.030.B., to allow a reduction to the minimum setback y for a freestanding ground sign from 10 feet to approximately 1 foot; Section 14.16.060(D) to allow the v height of the sign to exceed the setback of the sign from the property line; and Section 14.16.060(G) to allow a ground sign without installation of landscaping around the base. c a a� PLANNING&ZONING ANALYSIS ca Sign Area • Based upon the property frontage, the maximum sign area allowed is 80 square feet. The sign E area of the proposed sign is compliant at 50 square feet. z U �a Sign Height Q • Per the Village code,a ground sign is not permitted to be taller than the distance it is setback from the property line with the maximum height of 15 feet. The plan as proposed complies with this standard as the new sign height would be 15 feet. Packet Pg. 16 2.2.a ` Sign Setback A ` `, A freestanding sign �, must maintain a minimum setback from the public right � of way of 10 feet. If the sign is taller 4 than 10 feet,the sign must be ° h,w setback from the a�i `D property the same o of a„ °^« distance as the X a height of the sign. g r The new sign is proposed to ' m maintain the original 3 c setback of approximately 1-foot,which is the primary basis of the variation requests. Q m Staff has analyzed the requests and has determined that if the sign were required to be setback 15-feet Y from the property line, motorists driving southbound on Milwaukee Avenue would not be able to see the 3 sign as the existing restaurant building would block it from view. 0 Motorists traveling northbound on Milwaukee Avenue may have a similar line of sight issue as the sign N could be obstructed by the two-story office building immediately to the south, and/or by the mature tree ,o line within the Milwaukee Avenue landscaped median south of the site. 0 ea Staff further notes that the petitioner is requesting less signage than would be permitted on the property and is not trying to maximize the square footage of signage. aM Related to their request not to install landscaping around the base of the sign, staff agrees with the petitioner's rationale that landscaping in this area may create a barrier from the accessible route into the building. u, c 0 DEPARTMENTAL REVIEWS v Village Department Comments c CL Engineering The Village Engineer has reviewed the proposed sign location and does not have any engineering or line of sight concerns or objections with the proposed location of the sign. SURROUNDING PROPERTY OWNERS 4) Pursuant to Village Code,the surrounding property owners within 250'were notified and a public hearing z sign was posted on the subject property. The posting of the public hearing sign and the mailed notifications were completed within the prescribed timeframe as required. As of the date of this Staff Q Report, the Village has not received any calls from the surrounding property owners. STANDARDS The Planning &Zoning Commission is authorized to make a recommendation to the Village Board based on the following criteria: Packet Pg. 17 2.2.a A. Except for Prohibited signs (Chapter 14.32), the Village Planning & Zoning Commission may recommend approval or disapproval of a variance from the provisions or requirements of this Title subject to the following: 1. The literal interpretation and strict application of the provisions and requirements of this Title would cause undue and unnecessary hardships to the sign user because of unique or unusual conditions pertaining to the specific building, parcel or property in question; and 2. The granting of the requested variance would not be materially detrimental to the property owners in the vicinity; and 3. The unusual conditions applying to the specific property do not apply generally to other properties in the Village; and 4. The granting of the variance will not be contrary to the purpose of this Title pursuant to 0 Section 14.04.020 X B. Where there is insufficient evidence, in the opinion of the Planning & Zoning Commission, to d support a finding under subsection (A), but some hardship does exist, the Planning & Zoning Commission may consider the requirement fulfilled if: ' m 1. The proposed signage is of particularly good design and in particularly good taste; and 3 c 2. The entire site has been or will be particularly well landscaped. > a m The petitioner's responses to each of the standards are attached for the Commission's review. Y M �a STAFF RECOMMENDATION 3 Staff recommends approval of the abovementioned Sign Code variations subject to the conditions in the c Suggested PZC Motion below. N L 0 W ACTION REQUESTED c The Planning & Zoning Commission (PZC) shall open the public hearing and take public testimony concerning the Sign Code variations. The PZC shall make a recommendation to the Village Board concerning the requests. aM Suggested PZC Motion The PZC recommends approval of variations from Title 14.16 (Sign Code), to allow a reduction to the minimum setback for a freestanding ground sign;the height of the sign to exceed the distance the sign is u, setback from the property line;and allow the installation of a ground sign without landscaping at its base, 0 to accommodate a new ground sign to be located at 220 Milwaukee Avenue.

Upon professional inspection it was determined that the sign in question was improperly sealed at the base resulting in years of water and salt from snow removal seeping in and rusting the support beam that held up the sign. It came as a great shock to us when we heard the thunderous thud during our lunch hour and, so, we scurried outside to find the sign had fallen blocking our exit Cn driveway on the Milwaukee Ave side of our property. Luckily, no one was hurt and there was no damage to anyone else's property, which would have been greatly upsetting as we've already suffered great economic strain as the result C of Covid-19. C As a direct result of the loss of our sign, it has lowered our visibility on the avenue. We're already in a section of the block where visibility is difficult fo drivers heading northbound on Milwaukee Ave due to the building dire ou of us being of such great stature. A lot of first-time patrons call us re Packet Pg, 2S 2.2.b significant increase with frustrated U-turnto or turn around further up don drivers being able to notice our establishment to get foot traffic into our business.

The site is approximately .89 acres and is currently improved with a vacant restaurant (Grill on the Rock, Korean Barbeque); approximately 3/ of the site is developed as a M surface parking lot. The proposed o demolition of the vacant ra a=i development would include the a restaurant and the construction / �tY - �� 2 of a 3,600 square foot carwash "' > facility to be called Spotless Auto Spa. The project will require preliminary plan approval. The following memorandum provides 1° ��i�/ Q- �� O a brief summary of the project. CL // r1 i it / 7 O At the May 16, 2022 Village Board meeting, the developer presented an overview of the concept plan. The Trustees had i% L some questions regarding overall f j; / VV' ;' ,f ,r !o Q circulation and access but were generally supportive of the development. At this time,the Developer is finalizing the plans for the property and is seeking comments on the project from the Planning & Zoning Commission prior Cn to the public hearing. E z PROPOSED PLAN The petitioner is seeking to demolish the existing restaurant space and construct a new 3,600 a square foot carwash, which will include canopy covered pay stations with two lanes for vehicle stacking and 17 vacuum stations. Operations: The petitioner has indicated that the owner/operator of the facility will designate the hours of operation. However, they expect the hours of operation to be in-line with other similar facilities in the Village. Peak hours will vary but are normally on evenings and weekends. Total wash times Page 1 of 3 Packet Pg. 31 vary from 30 seconds to 3 minutes depending upon the type of wash selected. The carwash will typically have 3 staff members on site to assist customers. h�n ----------------------------------------- Zoning Analysis: The proposed use is permitted within the B3 zoning district. The Comprehensive Plan indicates > � that this site should remain commercial. Given the |ot's size (less than l acre) and configuration, as well as the surrounding uses, staff believes the development is suitable for the location. Based on the preliminary plan provided, the building would meet zoning setback requriennents. Variations would be needed for accessory structures closer to the street than the principal — structure, a reduced landscape buffer, and potentially for signage. � 0 71 CL ARWA AM U CL Access, Circulation, Stacking: CL The volume of traffic tn be generated by the proposed car wash, will amount to approximately o: one percent of the existing peak hour traffic on Milwaukee Avenue and will not have a significant l� � impact on traffic conditions in the area. Access to the site will be provided on the southwest corner of the property by a curb cut on Milwaukee Avenue. The existing full-access driveway will be relocated slightly 1othe south and expanded to accommodate a full-access drivevvith an island median to prohibit inbound traffic from accessing the vacuum stalls prior to going through the wash.The existing full access drive on the northwest partof the site will be modified to accommodate right-in/right-out onlytraffic. On- site vehicular traffic will circulate the site utilizing double lanes oriented in a counterclockwise circulation pattern. The petitioner has submitted a preliminary traffic study, which indicates the proposed access system will be adequate in accommodating site-generated traffic. Page zv/3 3.A.1.a An emergency exit is proposed at the north end of the site between the pay stations and the carwash tunnel. This exit may be helpful in the event the carwash breaks down and vehicles need to exit the queue. The total vehicle stacking capacity(including the carwash tunnel) is 43 cars,which the traffic study indicates will be adequate in accommodating the normal daily projected traffic operations of the car wash. A full traffic study will be provided as part of the formal application. Parking: The Zoning Code requires a minimum of one parking space per employee be provided for carwashes (auto laundry uses). The project exceeds this requirement with four dedicated parking stalls for employees and 17 parking stalls equipped with vacuum stations. 3 c d Stormwater& Engineering: a The north 1/3 of the site is in a regulatory floodplain. The site will be designed to accommodate Y the floodplain and mimic the existing elevations.Compensatory storage will be provided along the north side of the project site and the building will be elevated to meet flood protection standards. The petitioner has provided a preliminary stormwater assessment with their initial submittal. The site's impervious surface and stormwater runoff will be reduced. The Village's Engineers have M reviewed the concept plans and have indicated that there are minimal concerns related to 0 stormwater and utilities. Once preliminary engineering plans are submitted, the Engineering Department will perform a full assessment of the proposed development. E CL a) Noise: > m The petitioner has provided a sound study indicating that the ambient noise from traffic on Milwaukee Avenue will exceed noise generated by the car wash blower during anticipated hours M of operation.The nearest residential property is located across Milwaukee Avenue, approximately o 220 feet from the proposed carwash site. Q- 0 L a PROCESS Q, Based on the plans submitted, it is anticipated that the following approvals will be required: s° N • Preliminary plan approval L 0 • Potential Variations for accessory structures, landscape buffer and signage L ACTION REQUESTED 0 0. Both staff and the Developer are seeking the PZC's thoughts and comments concerning the proposed plans.

The Village of Buffalo Grove is a certified community with the County. The assessment is intended for a pre-application/referral — meeting at the Village Board Meeting and is based on available public information. 0 M Project Description 0 Client is proposing a new carwash facility in at a vacant 0.89-acre commercial lot. This project entails the c development of a proposed 150' x 35' carwash building, vacuum stalls, payment station& canopy, drive aisles E and utilities. Q- 0 a� Pre-Development Conditions -0a The site has one(1)building formally the Grill on the Rock Korean BBQ at the south end of the site with a trash enclosure along the east lot line. Three quarters of the site is a parking lot with a few landscape islands. Landscaping is limited to perimeter areas around the building foundation and narrow buffers along the west and o north lot lines. Two existing access drives connect to Milwaukee Ave, one at the north end and one adjacent to the c building. The site appears to drain north to an offsite Swale. The improvements have existed prior to the original a Lake County Watershed Development Ordinance effective date of 10/18/92. Aerial exhibits from Lake County a GIS has been included. 0 s N Y L Impervious Area= 0.85 AC 0 Pervious Area= 0.04 AC Development Area=0.89 AC d U) c Regulatory Floodplain The proposed developed area is within a regulatory flood lain per the Federal Emergency Management Agency. a P P P g Y P P g Y g FIRM Panel#17097CO266K,Zone AE with an effective date of September 9`h, 2013. The 100-year flood zone a(i limit passes through the northern third of the site. A Base Flood Elevation(BFE)is approximately 644.6 ft based E s on the Floodplain Study. The site will be designed to accommodate the floodplain and mimic existing elevations. U Compensatory storage will be provided along the north side of the project and the building will be elevated to Q meet flood protection standards. A FEMA Firmette has been included. Regulatory Wetlands Cursory review of the US Fish&Wildlife Services National Wetland Inventory and Lake County's GIS indicates no wetlands are in or adjacent to the project site.

Ill[zIoir600 MEMORANDUM TO: Brian Paul Premier Design+Build Group FROM: Javier Millan Principal d Luay Aboona,PE,PTOE Q d Principal Y 3 !3 DATE: June 1, 2022 SUBJECT: Traffic Impact Statement M Proposed Car Wash 0 Buffalo Grove, Illinois E a 0 a� This memorandum summarizes the results and findings of a traffic impact statement prepared by Kenig, Lindgren, O'Hara, Aboona, Inc. (KLOA, Inc.) for the proposed development of a tunnel car wash in Buffalo Grove, Illinois. The site, which was previously occupied by the Grill on the Rock restaurant,is located at 301 N. Milwaukee Avenue between Chevy Chase Drive and Johnson o Drive. As proposed, the site will be developed with an approximate 5,000 square-foot tunnel car c wash facility with 17 vacuum stalls and four employee parking spaces. Access to the car wash will a be provided off Milwaukee Avenue via a full-movement access drive near the south property line a and via a right-in/right-out access drive near the north property line. y L The purpose of this traffic statement was to estimate the traffic to be generated by the car wash and review the access and circulation system proposed to serve the car wash. Figure I shows an , aerial view of the site. A copy of the proposed site plan is located in the Appendix. co c Existing Roadway System Characteristics a The characteristics of the existing roadways near the development are described below. s Milwaukee Avenue (US Route 45) is generally a north-south arterial roadway that in the vicinity Q of the site provides three through lanes in each direction separated by a raised landscaped median. At its signalized intersection with Riverwalk Drive/Columbus Parkway, Milwaukee Avenue provides an exclusive left-turn lane, three through lanes, and an exclusive right-turn lane on the northbound approach and an exclusive left-turn lane, two through lanes, and a shared through/right-turn lane on the souhbound approach. Both legs of the intersection provide standard style crosswalks with pedestrian countdown signals. Milwaukee Avenue is under the jurisdiction of the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT), is classified as a Strategic Regional Arterial (SRA),carries an Annual Average Daily Traffic(AADT)volume of 36,200 vehicles(IDOT 2019), and has a posted speed limit of 40 miles per hour. 1 rafl,.' or[l[IolI m-d I°m ,IICft Phil III`11,gCorimfItmiIs Packet Pg. 53 3.A.1.b M, a++ ;/ m V i� 4 l� P� I IIIII II I IIIIIIIIIII III M O GD CL CD l� ,.,� S �rl�, J / �j� /»I �lfr � �y✓y, /,; �f�,1�` r„i�ir;, r N d O G CL O Aerial View of Site Figure 1 Y L O rt+ d CO c m a c aD E s U ea Q 2 Packet Pg. 54 3.A.1.b Chevy Chase Drive and Johnson Drive are east-west roadways that are under stop sign control at their terminus at Milwaukee Avenue. Both roadways only provide one lane in each direction with Chevy Chase Drive having a posted speed limit of 25 mph and Johnson Drive having a speed limit of 30 mph. Both roadways are under the jurisdiction of Village of Buffalo Grove. Trip Generation Estimates The number of peak hour vehicle trips estimated to be generated by the proposed car wash was estimated based on the "Automated Car Wash" (Land-Use Code 948) trip rates published in the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual, 1 lth Edition. It is important to note that surveys conducted by ITE have shown that a considerable number of trips made to car > washes are diverted from the existing traffic on the roadway system. This is particularly true during the weekday morning and evening peak hours when traffic is diverted from the home-to-work and work-to-home trips. Such diverted trips are referred to as pass-by traffic. However, in order to 3 present a worst-case scenario, no reductions in the site-generated traffic were taken into account. Based on the data provided in the ITE Manual for an automated car wash(Land-Use Code 948), the w typical usage is approximately 71 vehicles per hour during the weekday evening peak hour and 152 vehicles per hour during the Saturday midday peak hour. The ITE Manual does not provide data for the morning peak hour for an automated car wash.For the purposes of the evaluation,it was assumed Q, to be approximately one-third of the weekday evening peak hour trip generation. Table 1 summarizes .2 the estimated trips using the ITE rates. Copies of the ITE trip generation graphs are included in the Appendix.

Traffic Evaluation E s Based on the estimated trips shown in Table 1, the facility will be able to accommodate the hourly trips generated given that the service rate of the tunnel is approximately 130 to 150 vehicles per Q hour. Furthermore, the volume of traffic to be generated by the proposed car wash, without taking into account pass-by traffic reductions, will amount to approximately one percent of the existing peak hour traffic on Milwaukee Avenue, thus indicating that the traffic the proposed facility will generate can be accommodated and that it will not have a significant impact on traffic conditions in the area. 3 Packet Pg. 55 3.A.1.b Site Access Evaluation As previously indicated, access to the car wash is proposed to be provided off Milwaukee Avenue at two locations. Below is a discussion of each access drive. Southern Access Drive The proposed southern access drive will be a relocation of the existing access drive that served the previous use on site. The access drive will be located near the southern property line approximately 175 feet north of Chevy Chase Drive. The access drive will provide one inbound lane and one outbound lane. Inbound left-turn movements can be accommodated by the existing striped median > on Milwaukee Avenue. It should be noted that the access drive will be provided with a raised island median to prohibit inbound traffic from accessing the vacuum stalls. 3 !3 Northern Access Drive The proposed northern access drive will be a modification of the existing access drive from full w movements to right turns in and out only. The access drive should be designed and signed to physically enforce the restriction. E a It is recommended that outbound movements at both access drives be under stop sign control. .2 Internal Circulation Review The single-lane automatic car wash tunnel will be an exterior-only car wash system and will have a o counterclockwise circulation. The entrance to the car wash drive-through system is located at the o south end of the site. Vehicles will proceed along the south and east sides of the site to approach the a two individually gated, automatic pay stations to select and pay for their car wash options. The gates c meter the traffic flow proceeding to the car wash tunnel entrance and will open in sequence based y on the order of vehicle payment. Once the gate is lifted for the respective lane,the individual vehicle c will perform a U-turn to proceed towards the entrance to the tunnel. At the entrance to the car wash tunnel, the driver will remain in the vehicle and the car wash will automatically pull the vehicle through the tunnel. It is our understanding that car washes have a typical service rate of 130 to 150 co c vehicles per hour, which will minimize the amount of time a vehicle spends in the tunnel, thus e° reducing internal queues. a c a� After exiting the tunnel,the vehicles can either turn right to access the vacuum positions or continue straight to exit to Milwaukee Avenue. Approximately four vehicles can be accommodated between 2 the car wash exit and the access drive. If the vehicle is delayed in exiting the tunnel, the pulling Q system will shut down so that vehicles in the tunnel that are following will not rear-end the exiting vehicle. It should be noted and as indicated earlier, the full-movement access drive will be designed with a barrier island median to physically prohibit entering vehicles from accessing the vacuum stalls. 4 Packet Pg. 56 3.A.1.b Car Wash Stacking According to the site plan, there is storage for approximately 38 vehicles to queue while advancing to one of the two pay stations. Further, the car wash tunnel itself can hold approximately five vehicles at the same time for a total stacking capacity of 43 vehicles. This available stacking will be adequate in accommodating the normal daily projected traffic operations of the car wash. Car Wash Wayfiriding and Traffic Control. Signage The following wayfinding and traffic control signage is recommended: c d a Wayfinding signage should be posted to guide vehicles to the respective car wash stacking area to minimize vehicle turning movements within the internal site circulation area. 3 Wayfinding signage should be posted at the exit of the car wash tunnel to direct vehicles exiting the car wash to either of the two access drives off Milwaukee Avenue. o M w A"Do Not Enter" sign should be posted at the exit of the car wash tunnel to deter opposing traffic from entering the car wash tunnel from the one-way exit direction. 0) a A stop sign should be provided at the southern end of the vacuum station drive aisle in .2 order to promote free-flow movement for vehicles entering the site or exiting the car wash. -(D a� Vacuum Positions � N O CL The 17 vacuum positions will be located on the west side of the car wash tunnel. A north-south, o two-way drive aisle will be provided, allowing flexibility for vehicles to access the vacuum area a either before (via the right-in/right-out access drive) or after the car wash. Vehicles exiting the c vacuum stations can exit the site via either access drive off Milwaukee Avenue. y L O Peak Day Operations co Typical of any car wash, its peak operations (design day)typically occur after a weather event such as a snowfall or a rain event. Based on historical data from other car washes, this typically occurs 12 a to 15 times per year. When this peak demand occurs, the following operational procedures should c be implemented: s Increase the service rate of the tunnel to the maximum it can process. a Should the internal vehicular queues occupy both lanes, the right-in movement at the full- movement access drive off Milwaukee Avenue should be closed via traffic cones and an attendant should direct traffic to enter via the right-in/right-out access drive. Direct traffic to stack on the drive aisle within the vacuum stalls. This would provide the car wash with additional stacking for approximately 16 to 20 vehicles (stacked side by side). 5 Packet Pg. 57 3.A.1.b Provide staff at critical locations within the circulation system during peak periods at the car wash to help direct and manage the flow of traffic through the site. Critical internal locations where staff should be located include at the pay stations and at the exit of the car wash. Conclusion Based on the preceding evaluation, the following conclusions and recommendations have been made: d The proposed car wash will generate a limited volume of traffic,which will be reduced due to pass-by traffic. Q d as The proposed access system consisting of a full-movement access drive near the south property line and a right-in/right-out access drive near the north property line will be 3 adequate in accommodating site-generated traffic. 0 M The outbound movements from the access drives off Milwaukee Avenue should be under c stop sign control. m E The proposed site layout will provide on-site stacking for approximately 43 vehicles c (including vehicles in the tunnel), which will be adequate in accommodating the normal daily projected traffic operations. W The following wayfinding and traffic control signage is recommended: N O o Wayfinding signage should be posted at the exit of the car wash tunnel to direct c vehicles exiting the car wash to either access drive off Milwaukee Avenue. a a o A "Do Not Enter" sign should be posted at the exit of the car wash tunnel to deter s opposing traffic from entering the car wash tunnel from the one-way exit direction. L O o A stop sign should be provided at the southern end of the vacuum station drive aisle in order to promote free-flow movement for vehicles entering the site or exiting the co car wash. a On peak days (after a snowfall or a rain event), the following operational procedures should ; be implemented: s o Increase the service rate of the tunnel to the maximum it can process. a o Close the right-in movement at the full-movement access drive off Milwaukee Avenue via traffic cones and an attendant should direct traffic to enter via the right- in/right-out access drive. o Internally direct the diverted traffic to stack within the vacuum stalls. o Provide staff at critical locations within the circulation system at the car wash to help direct and manage the flow of traffic through the site. Critical internal locations where staff should be located include at the pay stations and at the exit of the car wash. 6 Packet Pg. 58 3.A.1.b a� c a� Q a� a� 3 !C O Cl) 4- 0 r� C d E Q O G1 Appendix d 41 N O Q O L a a O s y L O rt+ CO c cc a c a� E s ca Q 7 Packet Pg. 59 (anuany eaNnemllW 60£;o luawdolanapab posodoJd-doyslioM) ;aS ueld.3uauayoelly 0 4 t bi (4 a:eM�s'w a°°oos a. rt x /�i g U LL 2 W A a I' 214 3St/H3 M3H3 3 FEW �prc .�fi I Ij i I 'I .�Z 9� d I I I a a mom I wo0o B6Z I o s�s s /1 i I I I y � Y m / s a, w r I EDE Lu >� _0000 �� sssss •� a mmmMm m x s� 1 s - I 1„ wt J 1 I 3 I a L ) � p 0 p I s, m Wr, i 21a NOSNHOf 3.A.1.b a Sound Evaluation for the Proposed Car Wash in Buffalo Grove on Milwaukee Road 3 a May 4, 2022 Y 3 !3 O M w O Car Wash Pro Designers, LTD (hereinafter "CWPD") conducted an analysis to examine the c impact of noise from the proposed car wash in Buffalo Grove to be located on the east side of E Milwaukee Road just north of Riverwalk Dr. To accomplish this, we used noise emissions o data from both the exit and the entrance of a facility that is a replica of the car wash proposed in Buffalo Grove, Illinois. This was the Voda Luxury Auto Spa facility located at -0 7648 W 159th St, Orland Park, IL 60462. The measurements were conducted in May of 2022 by a CWPD acoustical consultant using professional grade instruments. In addition, our own data from a car wash in Vernon Hills shows that the sound level drops off a as angle to the opening increases. 0- 0 In addition, CWPD inspected the Buffalo Grove site to examine the effect of its Y topography on sound propagation. We also conducted ambient noise monitoring to document c the background noise levels that exist near the residents in the apartments over 800' to east, and the single family home across Milwaukee Ave to the south west on the corner of Milwaukee Ave & E Chevy Chase Dr. All of this data is important in predicting accurate car co wash sound levels at any specific location near the new facility and the impact of the M facility on nearby residents. a c a� E s Based on the Voda car wash noise data (which is primarily blower noise) and allowing for the reduction in noise due to distance, directivity, and topography, CWPD conclude that the a noise from the car wash will meet the Illinois State noise code. Moreover, there would be no noise impact from the car wash because the projected sound levels are well below the ambient noise levels recorded at the site.

A sample sound level tests were conducted over a 24 hour period on Milwaukee, Ave 2.5 miles south of the proposed wash site in Buffalo Grove by Dr Thunder (Noise Study Expert) are shown in Figure 2 (below). The thin, blue line shows the variation in the A-weighted sound level at 1-seccond intervals. The high peaks in the graph were typically from motorcycles, trucks, and airplane flyovers.

Because the entrance is much further from the blowers, the sound level is substantially lower at that location. Specifically, the level at 40 feet from the entrance at the same angle was 58.2-dB a level 13.3-dB lower than the exit. Since a 10-dB drop in sound level is half as loud, the noise emission from the entrance is more than half as loud as the exit. The recording in the field at 301 N Milwaukee Ave, Buffalo Grove, IL 60089 on the south end of the parcel on May 4, 2022 at 11:49AM that had current dB levels of (Peak: 97.8-dB, Avg: 74.7-dB) and at 11:53AM across the street at the residence located 330 feet from the proposed wash site at 7 E Chevy Chase Dr, Buffalo Grove, IL 60089 that had current dB levels of (Peak: 88.5-dB, Avg: 72.4- dB). Page 3 of 5 Packet Pg. 63 3.A.1.b As mentioned above, the sound level of a tunnel car wash drops off as a listener moves to the side of either the exit or the entrance. This is a phenomenon known as directivity. Based on our data, the sound level drops off by as much as 12-dB at an angle of 90o from the opening. The drop is further for angles greater than 90o. The sound level due to a car wash is generally the highest at the closest residential location. In this case, the closest residential lot is directly to the southwest of the proposed car wash across Milwaukee Ave. Using the Voda sound data, we projected the noise level to this property based on the attenuation of sound over a distance of 330' at 45 degrees from the exit of the wash and the effect of directivity to be 24-dB from the wash facility to this residence (with no passing traffic from Milwaukee Ave). The result is a projected level of 29-dBA radiating from the wash facility alone. This is below the State of Illinois daytime 3 limit (80-85 dBA) of about 72-dB for noise radiated from commercial property (Class B) to residential property (Class A). a d a� 3 !3 A noise impact could occur if the time-averaged noise level of the carwash exceeds the time- 3 averaged level of the ambient noise by more than 3-5 dB. To visualize the relationship between the projected sound level and the ambient noise levels, we plotted the projected o car wash blower noise level on the ambient noise graphs of Figure 2. As seen in this chart, c the car wash noise levels are well below the hourly Leq of the ambient noise level from about 5:00 AM until 11:00 PM. If the on-time of the blowers were factored in, the hourly m E time-weighted level of the blowers would be even lower. Based on our analysis, it can be Q- 0 concluded that the operation of this facility would pose no impact during is proposed operation hours of 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM. -0a aD m The closest residential location to the proposed car wash is 330 feet from the exit of the 0 wash, and 445 feet from the entrance of the wash. Residents closest to the exit of the 0- proposed car wash would have the following levels of dB based on distance: a a 0 s N Description of Measurement dBA L 0 Car Wash -1 meter from Car Wash Exit 87 d Car Wash -20 feet from Car Wash Exit 73 CO c c� Car Wash -40 feet from Car Wash Exit 61 a c Car Wash -80 feet from Car Wash Exit 50 d E s Car Wash -160 feet from Car Wash Exit 42 Q Car Wash -320 feet from Car Wash Exit 33 Car Wash -380 feet from Car Wash Exit 24 Page 4 of 5 Packet Pg. 64 3.A.1.b Conclusion: Homes closest to the exit of the proposed car wash (330 feet) would hear the equivalent of a pin drop from a height of one (1) centimeter at a distance of one meter (3.28084 ft) away. The dB levels above do not account for any form of screening, which will ultimately reduce the dB levels significantly. Site design, building design, distance from the source, and landscaping can all be used to decrease ("attenuate") or block/direct sound. Blower layout, the direction the tunnel faces, and of course, the number of blowers are also factors. Many local government ordinances dictate a maximum sound pressure level at the property line, typically 80-85 dBA for commercial properties on busy streets during the day (that's the typical level of traffic noise on a busy street) down to 50-60 dBA in quieter non-industrial, residential areas, especially at night. Some even dictate sound pressure levels by frequency. d We have included sound data, video data from two exact replica washes along with a report from Dr Thunder conducted for the exact same facility on Milwaukee Ave in Wheeling just 2.5 a miles to the south to support our conclusions and findings herein. Y 3 !3 The conclusions herein are based on a completion of several reports, experts and studies 3 conducted on the same equipment and building type proposed for the new car wash facility. 0 M w O r� C d E Q Sincerely, c Car Wash Pro Designers m N O Nick Spallone Q- 0 Principal a a 0 s N Y L O rt+ d CO a c a� E z a Page 5 of 5 Packet Pg. 65 3.B.1 06/1/2022 MINUTES OF THE REGULAR MEETING OF THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION OF THE VILLAGE OF BUFFALO GROVE HELD IN THE COUNCIL CHAMBERS, 50 RAUPP BOULEVARD, BUFFALO GROVE, ILLINOIS ON WEDNESDAY, JUNE 1, 2022 Call to Order The meeting was called to order at 7:30 PM by Chairman Frank Cesario Public Hearings/Items For Consideration 1.
