The 19 local students are dropped off by parents, but even those students are from multiple child homes resulting in the current population of 19 students only, generating nine family units dropping students off. The parking lot, which originally only accommodated 14 vehicles, has been expanded by approximately 50%to provide for 21 parking lot spaces, including one handicapped space. The vans can each be parked in one of the parking spaces. At most on a given day, the maximum number of employees at the facility will not exceed 8, 3 of whom will be arriving by the vans used to transport students rather than by their own automobiles. Students are dropped off by parents or transported by the vans. Arriving students are greeted by an employee of Torah Academy who monitors their entry to the facility.

Consider a Amendment to the Special Use to Allow Torah Academy to Modify the Conditions of Approval Set Forth in Ordinances 2014-052 and 2015-043,Which Limit the Maximum Enrollment of Students Until Certain Improvements to the Parking.Lot at 720 Armstrong Drive. (Trustee Weidenfeld) (Staff Contact:Andrew Binder) Petitioners were sworn in. einder,Associate Planner,provided a background on the subject property and the reguest. Lawrence Freedman and Rabbi Steven Zehnwirth,spoke on behalf of Torah Academy, and discussed the overal!request to amend the Special Use Ordinance. Freedman indicated that while the school has expanded their enrollment,it is not to the extent they originally anticipated.He stated many of the students arrive by van, which only takes up one parking space. Freedman further noted that the parking lot was expanded by 50%a few years ago and the petitioner feels that the parking lot is adeguate as improved.He noted that staff observed the traffic conditions and on-street drop-off was the only concern. He stated the conditions of approval address this concern and the petitioner fully agrees to the condition. Com.Spunt inguired about the playground open space next to the parking spaces. einder responded that it is an open field, and the staff is not concerned about safety issues. . Zehnwirth indicated that there is a chain link fence between the play area and the parking lot. Com. Davis asked with the increase in students, will there be an expected change in parking spaces. The petitioner responded that the student increase would not pose an impact to parking spaces,as they anticipate the same ratio will carpool. Com. Richards asked the petitioner to explain the traffic flow of pickups and drop offs. The petitioner indicated that those coming to drop-off will use the closest spaces, while those that are coming to stay will park further away. Com.Richards asked if the internal facilities are large enough to accommodate 60 students. The petitioner indicated that they will continue to build out classroom,bathroom and kitchen areas to accommodate additional students. Com. Richards indicated that the original parking lot had a iurnaround area, and the parking lot is now straighter. He osked the reason for the change. n Exhibit C to Ord 2023-152 11/15/2023 The petitioner verbalized that he doesn't want the playground area impacted for parking and such a low volume of traffic. Com. Richards asked if there is any issue with the layout of the parking lot for fire trucks. einder noted that emergency vehicles have a safe pathway to the school and its students. Chairman Weinstein asked with an increase in student to employee ratios, would that require additional parking. The petitioner clarified that students come in groups,by van transport. Chairman Weinstein asked whot would happen if 60 people arrived in 60 cars. Freedman responded, in the unlikely event that would be the case, the condition recommended by staff would address the concern. Drop off and pick up would not be able to take place within the parking lot,and the Village could request additional improvements. Com. Worlikar asked if there would be a stacking issue. einder confirmed it would not be an issue based on staff's observations of the traffic performed prior to the meeting. The public hearing closed at 7:50 PM. Com. Richards made to make a positive recommendation to the Village eoard to allow an amendment to Ordinance No. 2014-052, as amended by Ordinance No. 2015-43, which approved a Special Use to allow Torah Academy to operate a childcare facility and preschool/elementary school in the industrial district at 720 Armstrong Drive subject to the following conditions: 1. Condition 2 of Ordinance 2015-43 is hereby amended and replaced with the following new condition 2: "A maximum of sixty(60J students are allowed on the Property. The revised parking lot layout labeled `Proposed Toroh Academy Parking Lot Striping Plan - dated 9/12/2022"' shall be implemented with parking lot signage and/or paint Prior to the start of each school year, the petitioner shall provide the Village with the projected enrollment for the upcoming school year." 2. Drop-off/pick-up operations shall solely take place on the subject property.lf at any time,enrollment reaches a point where traffic operations cannot be accommodated on site, additional improvements to the parking lot may be reguired at the Village's discretion. 3. Except for those conditions specifically amended as part of this reguest, all other conditions of Ordinances 2014-52 ond 2015-43 shall remain in full force and effect. Com.Spunt seconded the motion. Com. Worlikar spoke in favor of the motion and indicated that he does not want kids being dropped off on Armstrong Drive,but that with the number of kids carpooling, the request makes sense. � i .� Exhibit C to Ord 2023-152 , 11/15/2023 � RESULT: RECOMMENDATION TO APPROVE[UNANIMOUS] AYES: Spunt,Weinstein, Richards,Worlikar, Davis, Saxena ABSENT: Adam Moodhe,Amy Au 2.
