*CORRECTION related the original plan for this property; *there was a reduction
of 50% from the Master Plan.
Alan Shenker, representing Mr. Dodd, made a presentation to ORDINANCE
the Board. Mr. Shenker stated that the property is located on #86-22
the northeast corner of Armstrong and Weiland; the parcel is (Dodd Parcel)
just over 1 acre. Mr. Dodd has proposed to subdivide the parcel
into a Lot 1 (the existing single-family residence) , and a Lot 2
(proposed R-5) .
Mr. Shenker reviewed the economics of the parcel.
Mr. Shenker stated that Mr. Dodd approached him after the Plan
Commission meeting, at which time the following requests were
made by the Plan Commission:
1) A sidewalk be constructed from Armstrong north to the end of
Mr. Dodd's property; this would be a 200' sidewalk approximately
8' wide. Estimates given by local contractors amount to $4,400.
Mr. Shenker circulated some pictures of the area. Mr. Shenker
also stated that there is a culvert which is over 6' wide, and
31 to 4' deep; there is nothing to connect this sidewalk to;
constructing the sidewalk would mean moving utility poles,
filling in the culvert, and new drainage; Mr. Dodd is not
financially able to complete these requirements.
2) The Plan Commission stated that Mr. Dodd must cap his well
and tie into the Village water system. These costs would run
approximately $3,900+.
3) Mr. Dodd was requested to grant 4' more easement on Weiland
Road, and to put in some trees.
Mr. Shenker stated that he had spoken with Mr. Truesdell and Mr.
Kuenkler, who are in agreement that putting in the sidewalk would
present difficulty. Mr. Dodd is selling the property out of economic
necessity; he pointed out the improvements made by Mr. Dodd to the
property. Mr. Dodd is presently unemployed, and does not have the
ability to complete the requirements requested by the Plan Commission.
Mr. Dodd is agreeable to cap the well and hook up to Village water.
Mr. Shenker stated that there are already trees on the parcel; he
pointed out that the sidewalk leads nowhere.
Mr. Shenker, in answer to a question from Trustee Marienthal, stated
that Mr. Dodd is agreeable to the additional right-of-way on Weiland
Road, but he does not have a commitment in writing from the contract
purchaser.

Mr. Kuenkler confirmed that it would be difficult to construct
a sidewalk at this time because of the telephone pole being in
the way.
Trustee O'Reilly stated that this is a unique situation, and that
the sidewalk should not be a part of this zoning, although it
will have to be put in at some time; she agrees that the well
needs to be capped, and the water hooked up; she thinks that the
request for parkway trees should be eliminated.
Mr. Raysa confirmed for Trustee Glover that the trees would require
variation, and would have to be published. The Schwaben Center was
not required to put in a sidewalk, but they did have to put up a bond
for same. Mr. Truesdell pointed out that, if the subdivider does not
do it, the Village would end up paying for it.
Trustee Glover stated that, even though he understands the hardship,
he is not sure the Village should establish a precedent by dropping
this requirement.
In answer to a question from Trustee Reid, Mr. Shenker stated that
the parkway trees would be in the vicinity of $200-$250 each.
Discussion ensued as to whether or not the existing trees are in
the parkway.
Mr. Kuenkler stated that there would be a similar problem with con-
structing the Ridgewood bike path/sidewalk.
President Clayton polled the Board: "Yes" indicates favor of requiring
the 8' sidewalk/bike path along Weiland Road; "No" indicates opposition:
Marienthal - NO
O'Reilly - NO, but she recalls that sidewalks were not put in at
Whitehall/Arlington Heights and Dundee/Crofton, and
the Village went ahead and put them in and provisions
were not made to put them in.
Glover - YES, but he does not think it should be required at this
particular time.
Reid - NO
Shields - YES, but with the requirement that it not have to be built
immediately.
Kowalski - NO
President Clayton stated that the Board had determined that the side-
walk will not be required, but it is understood and the additional
dedication will be accomplished, which was confirmed by Mr. Shenker.
Mr. Shenker confirmed that they would cap the well and connect to the
Village water system. Mr. Shenker confirmed to President Clayton that
the property owner will be willing to agree that they will place in
escrow the needed amount for parkway trees to meet the needs of the
Development Ordinance.
