Commissioners Present: Chairman Sheldon Mr. Goldspiel Mr. Krug Mr. Musfeldt Mr. Rhodes Mr. Lundine Commissioners Absent: Mr. Davis Mr. Katz Ms. Silz Also Present: Mr. F. Morelli, Developer, Westchester Cove Mr. J. Green, Architect, Westchester Cove Mr. W. Reid, Village Trustee Mr. R. Pfeil, Village Planner APPROVAL OF MINUTES Moved by Commissioner Rhodes, seconded by Commissioner Musfeldt, to amend the approved Regular Meeting minutes of November 18, 1987 correcting Page 2. Approval was unanimous in favor and the motion passed. COMMITTEE & LIAISON REPORTS Chairman Sheldon noted that there was discussion of a residence for sale adjacent to the Town Center. It has nothing to do with the Town Center. The developers were in and met with the Village Manager and have submitted a construction schedule and discussed fees. Regarding action on the Emmerich Park site, per discussion with Mr. Balling: The Village's maintenance facilities cannot be shared with the Park District because of the capital improvements. The Trustees were not agreeable to the Willow Stream Park site. The site by the youth center discussed for possible use by the Park District maintenance facilities is in the flood plain. It was suggested that the railroad station ggsite be considered for the Park District maintenance garage. WESTCHESTER COVE Mr. Green noted this is a 5 acre tract, 3.8 acre net, at the southwest corner of the Westchester subdivision at the north east corner of Buffalo Grove Road and Busch Road. The property will have a 54' right-of-way dedication for Buffalo Grove Road. It is presently zoned Agricultural by Lake County. The minimum lot is 16,920 square feet. The detention is at the south end of the site. This will move the lots and the cul-de-sacs further away from the intersection as previously shown to the Village Board. The current plan increases the angle on the bottom of the lots. The lake is allowed to increase a little bit. He then passed out a copy of the change that has been made to the plan concerning the Village staff's suggestion of shifting the development northward. The leg of the detention has doubled in size. There is no room on the detention area to bring the bike path south to the intersection of Buffalo Grove and Busch Roads. Commissioner Musfeldt suggested that the 25' setback from Buffalo Grove Road be increased and the lots moved back toward the detention. Mr. Green stated their plan gives them the right width for the building and homes sizes on those lots. Commissioner Goldspiel pointed out that Buffalo Grove Road will be a very busy, 4 lane, high speed road. Commissioner Musfeldt suggested that different side yards could solve this problem. After some discussion it was agreed that lots 3 and 4 could have their widths reduced from 90' to 86' with the extra 4' or total of 8' added to Lots 1 and 6 making them 100' each thus increasing the setback of those two lots. The bottom of Lot 5 will be part of the overall detention and will be landscaped and bermed. The detention area will be maintained by the Village. Mr. Pfeil will check on the left turn bays off of Buffalo Grove Road on to Busch Road. Mr. Green noted that there are no wetlands involved with this site. Unfortu- nately the trees on the site are not appropriate for a to residential development. The basements will all have perimeter drainage. They have not had any ground water in Westchester Estates. Along Buffalo Grove Road, lots will have fencing. The lots should drain to the cul-de-sac and to the rear in all cases. There is an easement for the sanitary sewer. It was suggested that this project go to a public hearing. Buffalo Grove Plan Commission Special Meeting January 27, 1988 Page 2 Commissioner Goldspiel requested a report on the configuration of a left turn bay on Buffalo Grove Road and timing of the construction of Buffalo Grove Road.
