MALNATI'S PIZZA (THE BUFFALO HOUSE) - VARIATION OF FLOODPLAIN REGULATIONS--WORKSHOP #1 itwasagreed thatthe Commission would Since the developer was notpresent u P g hear Item B on the agenda. WEILAND ROAD GREENHOUSE PROPERTY-INDUSTRIAL ZONING & PRELIMINARY PLAN--WORKSHOP #3 Mr. Brawley noted that the wetland area on the site had been brought to their attention and seems to be on Lot 9 but could effect Lots 8 and 10 also. There are also some trees that need to be surveyed. Mr. Pfeil put up a map depicting the suggestions made by the Village Traffic Consultant changing the access from Lots 13 and 14 to Lots 14 and 21. This would allow for access to the parcel east of the site should it annex into the Village. The access between Lots 13 and 14 would become an emergency access to Weiland Road and be constructed as such. Mr. Brawley noted that they would be willing to reserve land for access to the lot east of their site. Lake County will only allow the developer one access to the site from Weiland Road. Mr. Pfeil stated that the Village would want the right-of-way plated so that there is no question for future access to the property behind the site. The street could be put in and the watermain stubbed. Chairman Sheldon suggested that Mr. Raysa might give a legal opinion on the street access. The developer will review Mr. Pfeil's June 17, memo to the Plan Commission titled Weiland Road Greenhouse Property and Mr. Carmignani's memo to the Village of Buffalo Grove of June 21, 1988 titled Project #320.41 Weiland Road Greenhouse Development and be prepared with a reply at the next workshop. Mr. Weiner is in agreement with Mr. Carmignani's suggestion for access to his site. His concern is with the natural flow of the water. He would like it to remain the same. It tends to run south of the property. MALNATI'S PIZZA (THE BUFFALO HOUSE) - VARIATION OF FLOODPLAIN REGULATIONS--WORKSHOP #1 Since the developer was still not present,Mr. Pfeil briefly explained the flood plain ordinance for the new members of the commission. Mr. Kuenkler pointed out the developer has stated that he cannot develop his business as he wishes and comply with the flood plain ordinance. There is not enough land. The building will comply with the vehicle clearance requirements. The developer cannot meet the elevation around the building and does not want to provide compensatory storage for the building. The parking lot he intends to build would be below the flood plain elevation. Trustee Reid noted the paving that the developer is going to provide will not effect the runoff. The gravel, which is where the paving will go, is so compacted it is impervious and the water now runs off. The developer is planning to blactop the same area that is gravel now. The parking lot was increased without approval and the site was made worse. The basement of the Buffalo House does not flood. If the ground were to be brought up to standard, it would create a dam against the property next to it.
