ROUTE 53 Trustee Reid reported on the Route 53 Corridor Committee Council meeting, noting that plans have been presented for three of the sections; a Public Hearing is scheduled for July or August; the proposed route plans are available for review at the Public Works Department. TOWN CENTER Mr. Balling noted the request of the developer. Marc Schwartz, representing the developer, further reviewed the request of the developer, details of which are contained in Mr. Balling's memo to the Board of March 3, 1995, and Mr. Pfeil's memo to Mr. Balling of February 28, 1995. Trustee Reid stated that he cannot think of a worse place to try and put a playground than the area which has been proposed; it is right at the point where traffic from either side of the Town Center going out toward Buffalo Grove Road would converge; it is at the point where a u-turn is made for people using the Deerfield Bakery drive through; it is a totally inappropriate location; he cannot support this as a recommendation. Trustee Rubin stated that he does not see how it fits, even though it is listed as a B-5 permitted use; since it is an approved use, he would let the Plan Commission take a look at a location in which the use would fit; he cannot see that they can come back with any location where it does fit; he does not see any scenario which he could support. Trustee Braiman agrees with previous comments; it should be a separate outlot; he does not think it is a good idea. 9658 3/6/95 Trustee Hendricks agrees with Trustee Braiman; Mr. Sheehan and Mr. Pfeil indicate the problems; he would need more information from Melvin Simon before being able to support the proposal. Trustee Moons also agrees with previous comments; he thinks the concept is right; he does not believe it can be placed where the present plan shows it; he thinks ' it could be a very viable and appealing spot on one of the outlots. v Mr. Schwartz stated that he is asking for referral to the Plan Commission since this is a permitted use in the Town Center, with all comments made tonight being noted. Moved by Reid, seconded by Rubin, to refer to the Plan Commission the Kid's Choice Child Care Center by Kinder Care with the outdoor playground area to be provided in the parking lot as proposed in Mr. Balling's memo to the Board dated March 3, 1995. Trustee Rubin stated that he will support referral to the Plan Commission, with the comments from this Board, as well as memos from Mr. Sheehan and Mr. Pfeil; the consensus is very clear that, if it is to be in the Town Center, it should be on an outlot. Trustee Reid stated that the part of this proposal that he cannot support is the playground in the parking lot; he does not believe the time of the Plan Commission should be taken up on a proposal which he would find completely unacceptable; he has no problem with the B-5 limitations, but he finds this proposal unacceptable. Trustee Rubin stated that, since a child care facility is permitted in the B-5, and since the state requires an outdoor playground with a child care facility, it should be referred to the Plan Commission to find a suitable location. Trustee Braiman agrees with Trustee Rubin; he does not like the project, but he believes they have a right to go to the Plan Commission; even if it comes back with a positive recommendation, that does not mean that it would get Village Board approval. Trustee Moons stated that, even though he is in favor of the Kinder Care, he is against the motion. Mr. Schwartz stated that a child care center is a permitted use, and the state mandates an outdoor play area with a child care center; he is seeking referral to the Plan Commission for review; if it is a permitted use within the Town Center, the petitioner has the right to a hearing before the Plan Commission on that use within the Town Center. Upon roll call, Trustees voted as follows on the motion: AYES: 2 - Rubin, Braiman NAYS: 3 - Reid, Hendricks, Moons ABSENT: 1 - Marienthal Motion defeated.
