The date for the annual informal meeting for Strategic TRUSTEE STRATEGIC Planning and Goal Setting will be Monday, August 29, 1988 at PLANNING & GOAL 6:30 P.M. This will be a dinner meeting at President SETTING Clayton's home. Trustee Marienthal asked why the Police/Public Works and VILLAGE MANAGERS Clubhouse buildings were behind schedule? REPORT Mr. Balling responded that the delay was because some of the walls of the Public Works Building has to be replaced. The work is almost completed. There was a soil and drainage problem at the Police Station, but the masonry work is proceeding on the inner court. Steel has been delivered. Trustee Reid asked when the parking area at the Golf Course can be used? Mr. Balling estimated that the black topping will be done this week and golfers should be parking there before the next Village Board meeting. 7428 7/18/88 Budget adjustments will have to be made because of an EMPLOYEE HEALTH average 42% increase due to several large claims this year. INSURANCE RATES FOR The Northern Illinois Crime Lab may have to be deferred FY1988-89 several months. Mr. Balling will present a report in August relative to the approach in budgeting for 1988-89. Cost containment strategies will be implemented this year. The collective bargaining agreement with the Fire Fighter's Assn. is also being reviewed. v Trustee Glover would like to see more health benefit information including a comparison of historical costs. Increases seem to be heavy every year. Greg Boysen, Director of Public Works, will be undergoing ADDITIONAL VILLAGE back surgery and will be recuperating for several weeks. MANAGERS REPORTS Greg is doing some work at the hospital. Mr. Rigsby and Mr. Kuenkler are helping. Buffalo Grove was 1 of 14 out of 63 towns selected to receive $19,730 for reimbursement of the recycling program. This is the full 50% grant permitted by the Department of Energy and Natural Resources. (Letter dated July 15, 1988 was distributed.) Mr. Balling asked that an item be added to the Agenda. The Plan Commission has referred a piece of Com Ed property for consideration by the Trustees. There were no objections. Memo from Bob Pfeil indicates that height of the multi-story B.G. TOWN CENTER condominiums has been raised from 49 feet to 62 feet. The (Town Place) design architect has recommended a structural roof be installed. The ordinance provides for a height of up to 100 feet, but the site was zoned as a PUD and the Village Board originally approved 49 feet. Trustee Reid picked up the 62 foot height at the Plan Commission meeting and asked for Village Board clarification before the Public Hearing that is scheduled for September 10, 1988. Mr. Stan Lieberman, Mr. Marc Schwartz and Mr. Len Skiba of Len Skiba, Architects were present. Mr. Skiba described the proposed revision with the use of an overlay of the Town Place Site Plan. Three 5-story buildings (4 stories over parking) were originally approved at 49 feet to the parapet. The same standard is being proposed. The new building is 49 feet to the top of the parapet line (4 stories over parking on grade) . The architectural character of the new building is more residential. From a marketing standpoint, the developer feels this is extremely important. The two buildings are substantially smaller than the three buildings that were originally approved, and the basic planning 7429 7/18/88 restrictions have not been changed. Only the architecture has been modified. Trustee Glover recalled that these buildings, were originally approved at 49 feet so they would be equal to the Cambridge on the Lakes. The change is major because the mass of the building is now greater as well as higher. He recommended lowering the height with below grade parking. Mr. Skiba responded that lowering the building could result in flooding to a depth of 3-4 feet, if the pumps failed. A very elaborate pump system would be required. An overland drainage flow exists between the townhomes and the multi-family to prevent flooding if the pond overflows. Trustee Glover noted the Village Engineer does not think this land is more unique than other surrounding properties with below grade parking. He asked about the roofing material being proposed? Mr. Skiba said they are looking at high quality asphalt shingles, slate or concrete slate-type material. The height of the original buildings was 49 feet to the flat roof line and there were some non-functional 8'-l0' peaks spaced along the top, which complemented St. Mary's steeple. Trustee Glover said the Village Board has already consented to several changes and this will greatly increase the mass of the buildings. Trustee Reid agreed the changes is significant and the mass is large. He confirmed that the new roof is also non-functional. Since the peaks on the original buildings were designed to compliment the 75 foot, St. Mary's steeple, would the vista from Route 83 change? He asked to have the site lines developed for the Plan Commission before the Public Hearing. Trustee Marienthal agreed with Trustees Glover and Reid. He added that this particular roof would be out of place in the neighborhood. It will not blend in with the townhouses to the north and single family to the west, in the way originally intended. There would be no open vista to St. Mary's. Underground parking should be considered. Trustee Reid asked for a polling of the Board to give the Plan Commission some feeling of the Trustee's preference toward the change. "YES" indicated favor of Plan Commission pursuing the 62 feet, "NO" opposed to 62 foot proposal. YES: Reid, Mathias NO: Marienthal, Glover, Shields 7430 7/18/88 President Clayton asked if there were any questions from the QUESTIONS FROM THE audience; there were none. AUDIENCE President Clayton explained the Consent Agenda, stating that CONSENT AGENDA any member of the audience or the Board could request that an item be removed for full discussion; there were no such requests. Moved by Marienthal, seconded by Glover to accept the Award AWARD OF BID of Bid for the Fire Station Parking Lot Sealing and (Fire Station Parking; Restriping. Upon roll call Trustees voted as follows: Lot Sealing & Restriping) AYE: 5 - Marienthal, Glover, Reid, Shields, Mathias NAYES: 0 - None ABSENT: 1 - Shields Motion declared carried. Moved by Marienthal, seconded by Glover to accept the CERTIFICATE OF FINAL Certificate of Final Acceptance and Approval - Corporate ACCEPTANCE Grove Lots 83-87 and 103-106. Upon roll call, Trustees (Corporate Grove) voted as follows: AYES: 5 - Marienthal, Glover, Reid, Shields, Mathias NAYES: 0 - None ABSENT: 1 - Shifrin Motion declared carried. Moved by Marienthal, seconded by Glover to authorize the bid AUTHORIZE BID for equipment for the Arboretum Golf Course. Upon roll (Equipment for call, Trustees voted as follows: Arboretum Golf Course) AYES: 5 - Marienthal, Glover, Reid, Shields, Mathias NAYES: 0 - None ABSENT: 1 - Shifrin Motion declared carried. Deferred until August 1, 1988 because Mr. Taylor, the BILLINGS-CANTERBURY developer, could not be present for the discussion. FIELDS Memo from Bob Pfeil dated July 14, 1988, Preliminary Plan ORDINANCE #88-72 Approval. Representatives present were: Ms. Jeanne Rogers, (P.U.D. Rogers Developer and Company President; Joe Schmitz, Chief Centre) Operations Office; Stephen Malato, Attorney; Martin Kennelly, Real Estate Broker; Ms. Kathy Rogers, Const. Project Manager; John Schraw, Architect; Neal Carter, Mark Poliak, Landscape Architects, Theo. Brickman Co. Ms. Rogers described the Rogers Centre Site Plan. They are proposing to construct 4 buildings on the 5 lot subdivision, which is located at the entrance to Arbor Creek Business Center. Instead of requiring five different driveways with five curb cuts, they plan to have three driveways, two to be used for trucks only. Projected plans for this year call for construction of 100,000 square feet, and next spring, 7431 7/18/88 depending on the market, completion of the remaining 130,000 square feet. Mr. Malato reviewed the technical legal aspects of the Declaration of Protective Covenants of the Klefstad subdivision, which provides for the combination of lots and crossing of the lot lines by a single building. The Klefstad Subdivision contains utilities around the perimeter of the property, and has side yard setbacks between the various lot lines. The proposed building configuration will essentially conceal the trucks, and other industrial aspects of the use. The inter-action of the PUD and the Zoning Ordinance requires Village Board approval of the re-zoning. The Village Engineer and the Village Attorney have not come to a decision about resubdivision of the property. If necessary, the Rogers will comply. Chapter 16.20 of the Buffalo Grove Development Ordinance was addressed in the original Klefstad presentation. That engineering has not been changed and the Plan Commission's recommendation was passed by the Village Board. Mr. Schmitz, using a slide presentation, reviewed the history and business accomplishments of the Rogers Centres for Commerce. They construct, purchase, lease and operate industrial parks. Relative to maintenance of the buildings, signage and dumpster areas, The Rogers Centres will comply with the Buffalo Grove Ordinances. For the proposed industrial park, dumpsters will be enclosed and controlled by the Rogers Centres. Aerial views of the area and surrounding industrial parks were shown. Mr. Schmitz addressed the changes that have been made since the Plan Commission Workshop reviews on May 28, 1988 and June 15, 1988: 1. Elimination of driveway off Barkley Drive 2. Green areas have been increased throughout the site 3. Planted parking islands have been added to the parking lots 4. Truck dock areas have been decreased from 3 to 2 bays 5. Elimination of parking on the south side of the northern most pond, to provide some picnic tables for employees 6. Sidewalks were added to Building A-2 7. Service doors and stairs were added to each dock area 8. Walkways to the dock areas will be striped for safety 7432 7/18/88 9. Overhead door of small units to double doors 10. Raised sidewalks have been added between buildings 11. Reduced driveway and parking area south of the southern pond to provide increased green area 12. Aligned driveways between buildings, upon recommendation of traffic analyst 13. Rounded off the drive at the northwest corner of the lot and provided additional green area to screen the area 14. Benches added to the north pond area to be used by employees for enjoyment of the site and possibly a future bus stop 15. The amount of green area was substantially increased 16. Curbing will be added along the western wetlands 17. Buildings A and A-1 will be opened up along Aptakisic for better emergency access 18. The area will be screened with landscaping. 19. Stop signs will be added throughout the center Mr. Schraw described the architecture. Buildings setback meet or exceed requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. Curbing of all parking areas and parking spaces exceed the requirements. Buildings will be 8" x 8" face brick with a parapet around the top to break up the roof line. Quality detailing, insulated glass and energy saving code requirements will be applied. There are no visual distractions from any side. Mr. Poliak described the proposed landscaping. The aesthetic image of the surrounding corporate centers will be maintained. Berms of 3 to 5 feet will screen the building, reduce the height and compliment the architecture. Nature trails and picnic areas will add enjoyment to the employees. Plantings will include a variety of deciduous and evergreen trees for year around interest. Green space will fill the areas between the buildings and the ponds. Signage will be built into the berms to create a harmonious environment. Mr. Kennelly addressed the marketing of the project. The tenants will be compatible with the surrounding industrial area. The value of any vacant land will be increased by the construction of the Rogers Centre. They will be looking for upscale type of tenants, such as sales and service, distribution and light assembly. Mix will be approximately 1/3 of each. Mr. Schmitz concluded the presentation with a statement that they are definitely concerned with signage, upkeep and maintenance, dumpster areas, etc. They are long term owners and they are looking forward to starting. Mr. Raysa related that recent discussions with Mr. Kuenkler indicate that resubdivision will be required and language will be added to the July 18th draft. 7433 7/18/88 Mr. Glover referred to Corporate Grove and because Buffalo Grove wants to maintain this image, he asked Plan Commissioner Stephen Goldspiel to evaluate what is not compatible with Corporate Grove. Mr. Goldspiel said the majority of Plan Commissioners voted in favor of the project because of the many changes that the petitioners described. Those opposed were concerned with its quality in regard to type of use, combined with the layout of the project, and combined with the scale of businesses. It did not approach the character of the product at Corporate Grove. Because this is the entrance to Arbor Creek, some of the Plan Commissioners felt small use type of buildings were inappropriate. Trustee Glover asked about the comparative floor area ratio between the proposed buildings and Corporate Grove. Mr. Pfeil replied that most of Corporate Grove would be under the .30, but this more than the typical .20 up to .25 floor ratio at Corporate Grove. Mr. Schmitz added that the question is one of building configuration. Is the proposed 4-building layout more attractive, with the truck docks essentially screened from public view, or do the Trustees prefer the property subdivide into five lots and with five buildings done in accordance with the building code? Ms. Rogers commented that they originally planned to build five buildings; but they changed the configuration because they believe it to be much better. President Clayton asked for verification that all the Plan Commission's items of concern have been satisfied. Mr. Schmitz so stipulated, and Mr. Pfeil agreed. Trustee Reid made a motion to pass the ordinance approving the PUD and Preliminary Plan for Rogers Centre for Commerce at Arbor Creek Business Centre. Trustee Glover seconded the motion. Mr. Raysa suggested the following additions to the document dated 7/18/88: Page 4, immediately prior to paragraph 5 - "Upon approval of Plat of Subdivision, if required by the Village, the five platted lots shall be treated as one zoning lot for the purpose of applying the Village zoning for the development." He explained this will eliminate the interior side yard requirements. 7434 7/18/88 Mr. Schmitz said this language would be acceptable. Mr. Raysa continued: Page 7, Paragraph 16, Copy to: Mr. Steve Malato Page 8, Paragraph 16, Add Sub-paragraph C. It is understood and agreed that no building permits for construction of any improvements shall issue until approval of Plat of Subdivision, if so required by the Village. Page 8, Paragraph 16, Add Sub-paragraph D. If approved by the Village Engineer, the developer shall construct nature trail reflected on Exhibit C. , hereto. Mr. Raysa clarified the last addition. The nature trail flows onto Lot W, Wetlands and on Outlot E. Water Detention Easement. Mr. Raysa is not certain whether Mr. Kuenkler will allow it. Mr. Raysa commented with regard to what signage code Arbor Creek will have to comply with. The signage concept package will be part of he annexation agreement (same as Corporate Grove) and it will only require approval of Village Staff, through the Village Manager. It does not go to the Appearance Commission. This is included in the PUD and the Village Board has approved this in the Declaration of Protective Covenants for all of Arbor Creek Business Centre. Trustees Reid and Glover agreed to include these additions to the motion. Upon roll call, Trustees voted as follows: AYE: 5 - Marienthal, Glover, Reid, Shields, Mathias NAYES: 0 - None ABSENT: 1 - Shifrin Motion declared carried. Ms. Rogers thanked the Village Board and expressed appreciation for the support of the Plan Commission. Representatives: Ed Schwartz, John Martin, Architects; SIMS PROPERTY Larry Friedman, Attorney. (Pre-application Conference) Mr. Pfeil's recommendation is dated July 13, 1988. Mr. Martin described the property, located at the southeast corner of the Fiore development. When it was submitted 2 weeks ago, it was submitted as an R-4 subdivision, with 41 lots, plus the existing lot which will be retained by the seller. This has been changed to R-3 zoning use and the plan has a total of 34 lots, plus the retained lot. The Village Board requested an R-3 plan and an alternate site plan. The developer has submitted the R-3 plan as a 7435 7/18/88 cul-de-sac plan. After conversation with the owner of the 3 acre outlet parcel, it is certain that it will not become a part of the 17 acre parcel in the near future. Surrounding the subject property is Zale's Fiore which is zoned R-4. Therefore access will be off the collector to Prairie Road. R-3 zoning requires 10,000 square foot minimum lot sizes, and the average size of the 34 lots 14,670 square feet. There are 2.9 dwelling units per acre. When the 1.3 acre detention area was reviewed with the Village Engineer, they were informed that every site must provide its own detention. The low point of the site is at the northwest corner, so detention has been provided through including easements on three lots on the cul-de-sac plan. Two lots would have detention easements on the loop street plan. Each plan contains approximately 25% of the 17 acres as right-of-way, not only on Brandywyn extended, but including the internal right-of-ways. Both plans meet the transition criteria away from the R-4 to R-3 lots, and eventually to the higher categories of the vacant parcels to the south. Detention was discussed at length. Maintenance of retention basins has been a problem that has been very controversial at times. Mr. Martin said the three possible ways to maintain the detention areas would be: 1. Public agency, which does not seen feasible 2. Association of owners could be provided, and maintenance would be their responsibility as a group 3. Private owner maintenance is required for individual lots or groups of lots. In exchange, the owners receive larger lots. The developer's concept would be to deed out certain portions of certain lots, which would be common areas, owned by the association. The owners, on which the detention is located, would maintain it. These areas would be passive use. Trustee Glover's concern was that maintenance of retention basins by single owners has not always been successful, because the work is very extensive. The Park Commission or the Village maintains the vast majority of the retention areas on single family parcels with tax monies. He would want to see more information. Could it be relocated? Mr. Martin said that language could be included in the covenant giving the Village the right to go in and maintain the detention areas, if necessary. 7436 7/18/88 Mr. Martin said Mr. Kuenkler agrees the site does drop off to the west and Fiore property drops off to the south. Placement farther south would require extensive regrading; and may impact the area with lots that are higher than the Zale lots. Maintenance would still be necessary. Trustee Glover personally likes the cul-de-sac plan, but would prefer R-2 Zoning. Trustee Marienthal also had a serious problem with the location of the detention area, because it would be almost inaccessible. One alternative would be to incorporate it into a lake on the #4 fairway of the golf course. If the Village Engineer would permit it and Zale agrees, this would be the most beneficial use of the property. Mr. Martin said they would also prefer this plan and he will pursue it. Trustee Marienthal would not be opposed to either street design. Lots 32, 33, and 34 would have direct access out to Brandywyn at Prairie and for safety reasons he would like to have this alleviated. Mr. Martin responded that because there is a nice, new 2-story brick house on the 1-acre corner lot, it is impossible to change the access. Trustee Reid concurred with the concern with the detention. He prefers the loop roads to the cul-de-sac, but suggested reconfiguration of the loop to provide better access to the detention area; as well as possible access to the property in the other corner. Mr. Martin said it would be possible to provide access to this area and he will prepare for this at the time of the Plan Commission review. Trustee Mathias would not object to either an R-2 or R-3 plan, and he suggested the Plan Commission look at larger size lots approaching R-2. Trustee Marienthal agreed he would like to see a plan showing this parcel as R-2 including a road system. Li Mr. Martin said an R-2 plan would have the same road system, just larger lot sizes. The lots on the loop plan average 13,806 square feet, but the average lot size on the cul-de- sac plan are smaller. No further comments or questions. The project will be presented again. 7437 7/18/88 Mr. Szymborski introduced Robin Weiss and Dennis Dubrow, the CULTURAL ARTS SURVEY men who wrote the survey. The questionnaire has been con- siderably shortened. The projected cost of a cultural arts auditorium, based on the Schaumburg facility, would be about $3,000,000, including the land cost. The tax impact, based on an average $125,000 home, would be $41.00. The questionnaire will establish whether the residents of Buffalo Grove would support a cultural arts center. A tele- phone survey of 400 random calls to Buffalo Grove residents is proposed. President Clayton expressed appreciation to Messrs. Weiss and Dubrow for the contribution of their time and expertise in preparing the survey. The Trustees were given copies of the final draft of the survey. Several issues were discussed: 1. Would the survey be biased? Mr. Dubrow responded that if the survey is done properly it will not be biased. If more Lake County people are called, the Cook County calls would be weighted higher. Mr Greg Dennhardt would not make any calls. To get objectivity, independent people will be used, because it is possible, by intonation of the questions, to get biased answers. 2. What level of response would warrant of a referendum in November? Mr. Dubrow: More than 50% would be necessary to proceed. 3. Referring to question 2b - What if the center column was UNLIKELY, instead of LIKELY? UNDECIDED may be better. Answer: The survey is typical of this type of questionnaire. 4. Why 5 columns? 4 columns would give a positive or negative choice. A broad scale will give a truer attitude. Answer: Typical survey, it is best to have a mid-point. 5. Question 3. WHERE: 4 should be SOMEWHAT INSUFFICIENT. 6. Question 5. Most important. Should be YES or NO the way it will be on a ballot. TRUSTEES AGREED THIS SHOULD BE CHANGED. 7438 7/18/88 Survey should include information that there will be future maintenance expenses. There will be yearly assessments. President Clayton expressed the necessity for the Village to be honest. 7. All categories should be clarified. Values difficult to choose. 8. Question 7. Out of place. Should probably be #3. 9. The Park District recently sent out a question- naire that included a similar question. It would be helpful to know the result. 10. Mr. Balling agreed that the survey must be honest. Many of the questions are speculative. He hopes to have volunteers, such as PTO members, to make calls. It will take approx- imately 3 nights, with 8 people calling from 2 1/2 to 3 hours. It would be possible to hire a survey service. The survey will be rewritten and approved by staff before survey calls are made. Mr. Balling reviewed the discussions he has had with Zale WOODLANDS AT FIORE concerning the fencing of the lots that adjoin the golf (Fence Covenant) course. Homeowners are filing permits for fences, and they are being delayed until the Trustees have made a decision about the type of fencing to be permitted. The Restrictive Covenant would limit fencing to 42 inch, vinyl-clad, chain-link fences, screened with shrubs, bushes or other vegetation. Discussion included the height, placement of screening inside or outside of the fence, and whether there should be gates, because gates would encourage golfers to enter the yards to retrieve golf balls. Trustee Glover was reluctant to have fences, but realized many golf courses have them. He would prefer green color fences, set back 4 feet, with the shrubs on the outside. The fence would not be visible. Trustee Marienthal said California golf courses do not have fences. He would prefer no fences and the Village has agreed not to fence for at least 5 years. Zale has agreed not to fence the Multi-family portion of the golf course. 7439 7/18/88 Trustee Reid would agree not to permit fences but questioned whether the Village has the right to restrict them. Mr. Raysa said the Village cannot restrict all fences. The Fence Code permits fences to be 5 feet in height. Zale is willing to agree to the restrictive covenant for all lots abutting the golf course. Contracts have been closed on 5 lots, and Zale may have to go to the purchasers and explain the situation, and ask their agreement to the covenant. Questions arose concerning patio fencing and the necessity of 4 foot fences around swimming pools. Where could, or would, these fences be constructed? Why would people pay a premium for golf course lots, then desire to have stockade fences? President Clayton expressed a personal preference for open wood fences, such as picket or split-rail. She felt people should be permitted to have privacy fences around patios and pools. Set backs could be established. Even though all the Trustees preferred no fences, they realized that people will want fences for children's safety, dogs, privacy etc. Would ZBA variances be allowed? If so, the Village could end up with many different kinds of fences. Would there be liability if the Village restricts fences and there is a swimming pool accident. Mr. Raysa said there could be, because a pool could be termed an attractive nuisance. After further discussion, Trustee Marienthal made the following motion: I move we place a restrictive covenant on all single family lots abutting the Arboretum Golf Course for fencing to be permitted for security of swimming pools, and for patios. Said fences to be set back ten (10) feet from the rear property line and shall not exceed a height of four (4) feet. Trustee Glover seconded the motion. Discussion followed. Should privacy fencing around patios be 6 feet in height? Would fences be permitted between side yards? Alleys would be created if fences were restricted to the side yard building lines. This would not be a good situation, maintenance would be difficult and people would lose the use of their property. 7440 7/18/88 Mr. Raysa cautioned about the placement of fences that would restrict the view of neighbors. The 20% rear yard coverage zoning restriction was discussed with relation to location of patios, decks and swimming pools. Trustee Reid proposed deferring this issue until it has been more thoroughly researched. Trustee Mathias commented that the purpose of the 10 foot set back distance would be to discourage people from fencing. Trustee Glover expressed his preference for matching fences that would be kept in a straight line at the same distance from the lot line, with homeowners being permitted to screen patios within a specified distance. President Clayton proposed the following polls: 1. Prohibit perimeter fencing abutting the golf course. 2. Fencing permitted with a set back 10 feet from the rear property line. 3. Permit privacy fencing for pools and patios. 4. Type of patio fencing, i.e. , height, type per Fence Ordinance? 1. YES (Favor no fencing) - Marienthal, Glover Shields, Mathias NAY (Permit fencing) - Reid Poll - 4 to 1, against perimeter fencing abutting golf course. 2. YES (Favor of minimum 10 foot setback from rear property line) NAY (Opposed) YES - Marienthal, Glover, Reid, Shields, and Mathias NAY - None Poll - 5 to 0, minimum 10 foot setback 3. YES (Include ability for homeowners to provide privacy patio fencing) NAY (Opposed) YES - Marienthal, Glover, Reid, Shields and Mathias NAY - None Poll - 5 to 0, patio fencing permitted 7441 7/18/88 4. AYE - (Patio fencing permitted per Fence Code) NAY - (Opposed) AYE - Glover, Shields NAY - Marienthal, Mathias, Reid Poll - 3 to 2, opposed to patio fencing per Fence Code Mr. Balling commented that Zale wants security fencing for the golf course. They will be present at the August 1, 1988 Village Board meeting and will be expecting a decision relative to the proposed restrictive covenant. The Trustees agreed that it would be best to defer discussion until Zale representatives are present. The final poll was cancelled. Trustee Reid moved to table the motion, seconded by Mathias. Voice Vote - AYE Unanimously. Mr. Balling described the site of the Com Ed property being COMMONWEALTH EDISON proposed for annexation to Buffalo Grove. It lies east of ANNEXATION Weiland and south of Busch. Originally, Com Ed had intended to put a transformer facility north of Busch Parkway. Buffalo Grove had suggested that it be located south in the Industrial Park. Com Ed has requested annexation to Buffalo Grove (instead of the County) and has also proposed annexation of the Aptakisic transformer station which is located west of Prairie. This is a more substantial facility and the plat will be submitted before the August 1st meeting. Mr. Balling proposed annexation of both properties. The first to be zoned Industrial and the Aptakisic property to be zoned Residential. After Village Board approval, both properties would be submitted to the Plan Commission for Public Hearing. Certain variances of Buffalo Grove standards would be required, because Com Ed's security standards are more rigid. Discussion about setbacks, and the appearance of the structures will be anticipated with the Plan Commission. These improvements will benefit Buffalo Grove. Mr. Balling noted that there have been three power outages (brownouts) recently. He asked for referral to Plan Commission. Trustee Glover so moved, seconded by Trustee Marienthal. No discussion. Voice Vote - AYE Unanimously. Motion Carried - 5 to 0. 7442 7/18/88 Motion to adjourn made by Trustee Marienthal, seconded by ADJOURNMENT Glover.
