Mr. Balling reviewed the proposed ordinance, details of which are contained in Mr. Kuenkler's memo to him of May 9, 1995. Trustee Reid questioned how far the Village should go in terms of restricting Village residents to accommodate high school students who feel that they must drive to school; he thinks moving the driver education program from the spring semester to the fall semester would be a very good idea; he has serious reservations about implying that there is any suggestion from the Village of Buffalo Grove for the high school to alter it's driver education program from a three-phase program to a two-phase program by eliminating the range portion of the program; the Village should not be cast in the light of reducing an educational program to accommodate parking; he believes the Village of Arlington Heights also needs to be involved in this situation. Mr. Balling responded to Trustee Reid's comments. 9704 5/15/95 Trustee Hendricks agreed with Trustee Reid's comments; he stated that parking spaces have been provided, but the students choose parking which is more convenient for them. Trustee Rubin stated that he questions the necessity of so many students driving to school; bus service is available; he wonders how many times this type of ordinance has to come back before the Board. Upon roll call, Trustees votes as follows: AYES: 6 - Marienthal, Reid, Rubin, Braiman, Hendricks, Glover NAYS: 0 - None Motion declared carried. RESOLUTION #95-40 - STREET MAINTENANCE PROJECT Mr. Balling reviewed the proposed project, details of which are contained in Mr. Kuenkler's memo to him of April 10, 1995; he and Mr. Kuenkler then answered questions from the Board. Moved by Hendricks, seconded by Reid, to pass Resolution #95-40, approving an Agreement for Design Engineering Services for the 1996 Villagewide Contractual Street Maintenance Project. Upon roll call, Trustees voted as follows: AYES: 6 - Marienthal, Reid, Rubin, Braiman, Hendricks, Glover NAYS: 0 - None Motion declared carried. RESOLUTION #95-41 - STREET MAINTENANCE PROGRAM Mr. Balling noted that this resolution ties in with the previous resolution, and is also detailed in Mr. Kuenkler's memo to him of April 10, 1995. Moved by Hendricks, seconded by Rubin, to pass Resolution #95-41, for Improvement by Municipality Under the Illinois Highway Code - MFT Fund authorization for the 1996 Contractual Street Maintenance Program. Upon roll call, Trustees voted as follows: AYES: 6 - Marienthal, Reid, Rubin, Braiman, Hendricks, Glover 1 NAYS: 0 - None Motion declared carried. JOINT FIRE TRAINING FACILITY Moved by Marienthal, seconded by Reid, to approve a License Agreement between the Village of Buffalo Grove and the County of Lake concerning the Joint Fire Training Facility. Mr. Balling explained this agreement, details of which are contained in Martin Galantha's letter to him of May 8, 1995. Upon roll call, Trustees voted as follows: AYES: 6 - Marienthal, Reid, Rubin, Braiman, Hendricks, Glover NAYS: 0 - None Motion declared carried. 9705 5/15/95 JOINT FIRE DEPARTMENT TRAINING FACILITY Moved by Hendricks, seconded by Glover, to approve a bid waiver and authorization of agreement between owner and architect for the Joint Fire Department Training Facility.

CHECKER DRIVE Mr. Balling reported on the regulation and signage put in place intended to divert cut through traffic from Checker Drive, details of which are contained in his memo to the Board of May 11, 1995. President Mathias stated that the Board was aware of the trying times experienced by the Police Department, and asked Mr. Balling to convey the appreciation of the Board to the Police Department for upholding Village ordinances. Trustee Reid stated that, with regard to modifying the right turn, it should be modified by ordinance rather than relaxation of enforcement; he believes it is premature to make a judgment after only three months, when it had been used for two years as a cut through during construction, particularly when the corrective action was taken at the end of the construction; there should be a better sign indicating that there is no right turn, and it should be posted further south on Arlington Heights Road; traffic counts should also be done on Busch Road. Trustee Hendricks agrees with Trustee Reid for the most part; he would caution that the signaling is going to be changed at Route 83/Busch/Checker, which will allow fewer residents and create a greater time frame restriction for them to access their own subdivision; the right turn restrictions have been disregarded; when this is reviewed in September, the residents can be polled for their opinions after they have seen the results of the restrictions. Trustee Glover stated that her major concern is that the speed limit on Checker has been lowered, but the driving speed has lowered very little; she would like to see aggressive enforcement of the speed limit. Deputy Chief Gozdecki reported on the enforcement procedures of the Police Department. Trustee Marienthal stated that the traffic situation is being moved further to the north and is affecting another school area. Trustee Braiman stated that he agrees with Trustee Reid in that this has not been given enough time; he also agrees with modification of the signs; he does not think those changes should be made now. Paul Bartusiak, 571 Checker Drive, stated that he does not wish to re-direct cut- through traffic; the feedback that he has gotten from residents agrees with the turning restriction; he believes the lowering of the speed limit has helped; he believes if the signs were taken down, everyone would begin using it again; he again suggested that STOP signs be scattered along Checker; something more needs to be done in the evening. Dick Burns, 420 Checker Drive, thanked the Village staff for the quick response at getting the signs put up; he thanked the Police Department for their enforcement; he believes keeping the right-hand turn restriction in the morning is appropriate; when the train station is erected, it will make it more attractive to cut through on Checker; he believes Busch will be widened to 4 lanes, which will then dump onto Checker, making the situation even worse. 9706 5/15/95 A resident of Brandywyn Lane just off of Busch, stated that his neighborhood is in a similar situation, and they would like to see the same type of consideration in their neighborhood. Trustee Rubin stated that he would support at least investigating more STOP signs near the schools; he is in favor of making the turning signs more visible; he would not be in favor of expanding turning restrictions to the evening hours until there has been more of a trial period; he agrees that there will be more traffic with the train station; he also stated that Board members received many letters and phone calls from Buffalo Grove residents who were very upset with the restrictions. Trustee Glover stated that she finds driving through Checker Drive is very burdensome, and would like to find some way to convey to drivers that it is much easier to use the Arlington Heights Road/Route 83 intersection; she also would like some more clarification on why STOP signs do not work. President Mathias polled the Board: "YES" indicates favor of removing the right- turn restriction on the week-end; "NO" indicates favor of keeping the restrictions as they are now: YES: Marienthal, Reid, Rubin, Braiman, Hendricks, Glover NO: None The ordinance will be brought before the Board at the next meeting, and President Mathias asked Mr. Balling to inform the Police Department not to enforce that particular regulation until the ordinance is passed. Trustee Reid asked that staff bring back a report in three months, including another traffic study. FENCE AT 125 PAULINE Mr. Balling reviewed this request from the Raefs at 125 Pauline, details of which are contained in Mr. Schar's memo to him of May 10, 1995. James Murray, attorney representing the Raefs, also explained the request. In answer to a question from Trustee Rubin, Mr. Raysa stated that, if the Board were so inclined, the proper action would be to direct the Village Attorney to remove the covenant from the land. Moved by Rubin, seconded by Reid, to direct staff draft appropriate language to release the covenant. Trustee Reid stated that he does have reservations about this because he is not totally comfortable that the Board is acting with full information tonight; he thinks there are covenant provisions in other parts of the Village that are obsolete, and he would request that staff review covenants that currently exist and, where appropriate changes are necessary or recommended, they be brought to the attention of the Board. Trustee Braiman is troubled by this because of the fact that the owner went ahead and put the fence up without a permit, knowing that there was a restriction; he also sees the fact that the covenant is not necessary any longer; he suggested amending the motion to indicate that, if there is a stockade fence, there be some type of plantings on the outside, thereby approving the same type of amendment as was done in 1982. Trustee Rubin amended the motion as was suggested by Trustee Braiman, and Trustee Reid seconded the amendment. 9707 5/15/95 Trustee Hendricks agreed with Trustee Braiman's concerns regarding the fact that Mr. Raef put the fence up without a permit; he would like to know what legal costs were involved by the Village for the enforcement of the ordinance as it exists, and he would like to see that cost passed on to Mr. Raef. Trustee Rubin stated that, although Mr. Raef went ahead without the consent of the Village, he attempted to get permission from all the other homeowners; he would like to see more information on the dollars expended by the Village before determining whether it should be passed on to Mr. Raef. Trustee Reid is also disappointed that it got to this level before being brought to the Board's attention. Mr. Balling stated that Mr Raef was advised that putting up the fence would be in violation, and he decided to ignore the rules. Trustee Rubin amended the motion to include that any cost for the enforcement of the court proceeding be included; Trustee Reid seconded the amendment. Upon roll call, Trustees voted as follows: AYES: 6 - Marienthal, Reid, Rubin, Braiman, Hendricks, Glover NAYS: 0 - None Motion declared carried. SCARSDALE DEVELOPMENT - PROPOSED OFFICE BUILDING John Green, System Design Group, representing Scarsdale Development, made a Y g P P g P presentation to the Board, details of which are contained in Mr. Pfeil's memo to Mr. Balling of May 11, 1995. Moved by Rubin, seconded by Reid, to refer the Aptakisic Road Commercial Building/John Green to the Plan Commission, along with the comments made at tonight's meeting. Trustee Rubin is not sold on the B-1; he would be more comfortable with the O/R with the variations necessary because of the small parcel. Trustee Marienthal agrees with Trustee Rubin; he does not believe that the B district is the proper zoning classification; he questions why the building should be two stories instead of one story; he also questioned why there should be minimum set-back requirements; he believes this is a showcase corner, and he has some serious reservations regarding the plan. Trustee Reid stated that he would prefer to see the Office/Research; he believes the B-1 zoning is too blank a check to provide for that piece of property. Mr. Green stated they have no objections to the O/R; they listed it as B-1 primarily because it had the minimum number of variations. Trustee Rubin stated that he feels very comfortable architecturally with John Green's decision as to making a quality product on this "showcase corner" . Trustee Braiman stated that he would prefer O/R, however, he could be convinced to go with the B-i with proper restrictions. Trustee Hendricks is also concerned with the B-1; he would want to see covenants in the B-1. Trustee Glover would prefer to see the O/R. i i I I I I I V 9708 5/15/95 Upon roll call, Trustees voted as follows: AYES: 5 - Reid, Rubin, Braiman, Hendricks, Glover NAYS: 1 - Marienthal* *Does not want to see two-story building; too dense and too intense for this particular area. Mr. Green stated that they will take all comments into consideration, and they will present the best possible product to the Board. SHELL OIL PROPOSAL Sanford Stein, attorney representing Shell Oil Company, made a brief presentation to the Board with regard to their proposal. Ted Johnson, Certified Planner and Landscape Architect, made a presentation to the Board, referring to the Site Plan, and details of which are contained in Mr Pfeil's memo to Mr. Balling of May 11, 1995. Trustee Rubin stated that he goes past that corner every day, and it is a very busy corner; he understands why Shell wants a station there; he has concerns about whether the curb cuts requested will be approved; he would not support a curb cut on the side street; the Master Plan showed that this is zoned for office; the office building would not have traffic volume at night or on week- ends; he has strong reservations on the use; he would go along with a referral to the Plan Commission, although he would still have reservations if it came back with a positive referral. Trustee Braiman commends the fact that there is a lot of green space, although he believes it is in the wrong location; he would prefer to see the green space between the residents and the use; he has a problem with the three-story office building; he would not approve anything that would be any taller than the surrounding existing homes; the access off of Fremont would be inappropriate; he could possibly be convinced to vote for the gas station if it was done properly, and if the rest of the acreage was left vacant and there were enough barriers and screening; he does not think the gas station will increase traffic any more than what is already there; he would not agree to the plan as presently shown. Trustee Hendricks that he would only consider this if both things are built at the same time; he would definitely want input from IDOT regarding traffic; he would want to see more information regarding the access on Fremont. Trustee Glover stated that she has many of the same concerns as the other Trustees; the dedicated right-turn lane from Route 83 on to Arlington Heights Road is very difficult to get into to turn on to Fremont, much less to get in to a driveway before Fremont; she could not possibly support an entrance off of Fremont without much more information, as she believes that would be a real detriment to the neighborhood; she would not consider a three-story office building, since there is nothing that tall in that area; she has concerns with regard to parking for the office building; although the proposed landscaping looks very nice, she does not believe it belongs at it's present location. Trustee Marienthal asked why this Village needs another gas station, and why it needs another three-story office building at this site; the developer needs to ask what real benefit this will serve Village residents; the intersection is very busy, and he believes putting a gas station on the site would just compound the problem; other things which need to be addressed are the setback by the residential to the west, the location of the office building, and the height of the office building. 9709 5/15/95 Trustee Reid stated that he believes there are very serious problems with the traffic; the medians are not suitable for cross traffic, so southbound traffic is the only possible customer; he believes it is set too close to the corner to get an adequate turning area; he believes the curb cut on Fremont is out of the question; the residential should not be affected by the commercial; he asked what kind of lighting there would be, since it would be a 24-hour operation; he would want more detail on the buffering. Trustee Rubin stated that he is sure Shell would be successful if the gas station were to be built; since this is a pre-application conference, Shell has the option of coming back with a revised plan. Trustee Braiman asked for further details regarding the car wash. Mr. Stein stated that it would be a conveyer type of wash, not a full service wash. Trustee Braiman stated that he is not pleased with the location of the wash. Andrea Brim, 1245 Bristol, stated that a recent newspaper article cited this intersection as having the 5th highest accident rate in Lake County; she is concerned about property values; a third mini-mart is not needed at that intersection; she would not want a three-story office building outside of her window. Lou Eisenberg, 1213 Franklin Lane, stated that the residents do not want a gas station on that site; zoning is a commitment to residents that the land will be developed in a given way; this would create a safety hazard for the children in the area. A resident of Fremont Way stated that school buses pick up children at Bristol and Fremont Way; her son stated that the gas station should not be built in a residential area; he suggested building a park. Karen Larson, 1279 Farnsworth, stated that the Village does not need another gas station and another three-story office building; she does not believe a gas station should be on this property no matter where it is located on the site; there is also a cut through in the Crossings from Route 83 to Arlington Heights Road; she does not believe that this plan should move forward to the next step; she brought up the possibility of a special assessment district being formed and buying the property and having it belong to the area residents. A resident of Bristol Lane stated that all residents agree that they do not want Shell Oil there; he stated that the residents do not want a McDonald's there either. Trustee Braiman stated that this could be a perfect opportunity for the Park District to do something with this property. Mr. Stein stated that Shell is not going to simply go away; someone is going to develop this site; they want to work together with the homeowners and the Village. President Mathias suggested that Shell Oil meet with the homeowners association before coming back before the Village Board. Mr. Stein stated that they will be delighted to take that suggestion. CONGREGATION B'NAI SHALOM As a member of Congregation B'Nai Shalom, Trustee Rubin stated that he will refrain from discussion and voting on this item. Mr. Balling explained the request of Congregation B'Nai Shalom, details of which are contained in Fredi Brown to the Village Board. 9710 5/15/95 Moved by Hendricks, seconded by Reid, to approve a fee waiver for a raffle to be held by Congregation B'nai Shalom.
