Moved by Commissioner Genell, seconded by Commissioner Rhodes, to approve the minutes of the regular meeting of December 15, 1993 . All Commissioners were in favor of the motion and the motion passed unanimously, with Commissioners Rhodes, Howard, Rosenston and Genell abstaining. COMMITTEE AND LIAISON REPORTS - Commissioner Rosenston stated he attended the Village Board meeting on December 20, 1993 and general discussions were held. Commissioner Goldspiel stated he attended the Village Board meeting on January 17, 1994 and stated a resolution was passed concerning Buffalo Grove's comments on the Lake County framework plan, including a recommendation that Deerfield Road be widened to four lanes. He noted the Board' s concern with the density allowed by the plan for the Schwind property in Wheeling Weiland and Lake Cook Road. He further noted that two projects will be referred to the Plan Commission : 1. Domas Development at Weiland Road opposite Thompson Boulevard. He noted several concerns with the plan with regard to the development of the loop road on the property to the south as well as a concern with parking for the proposed usage. 2 . Edward Schwartz' townhouse development on Parkview Terrace behind the fire station on Dundee Road. He noted the trustees ' concerns with the need for more two car garages than what is being proposed as well as access from the street to a nearby park. ARBORETUM GOLF COURSE, 401 HALF DAY ROAD, MINOR PLAN CHANGE TO ALLOW CONSTRUCTION OF A PRE-FABRICATED BUILDING ADJACENT TO THE CLUBHOUSE AND INSTALLATION OF A TENT IN THE PATIO AREA Mr. Szymborski stated the Village is proposing a minor change to the golf course clubhouse area which will include the construction of 1,232 square foot pre-fabricated building to accommodate a locker room and shower facilities for both men and women. The project also includes expansion of the current patio and tent area. Mr. Szymborski stated that the purpose of the project is to enhance and get full potential out of the Arboretum facility. He noted that in 1989 the golf course opened with 9 holes and went to its full 18 holes in 1990. In 1993 there were 28,000 rounds of golf played. He stated that the goal for 1994 is for 30,000 rounds of golf and the capacity of the course is 35,000 rounds. Mr. Szymborski stated that the project is also part of an overall Buffalo Grove Plan Comm-Regular Meeting-January 19, 1994-Page 2 marketing plan for the Arboretum course. He noted that Mr. Molinaro is hoping to market the course next month at the Illinois Golf Show. He further stated that there is a great deal of competition in the area from courses such as Steeplechase in Mundelein and the proposed courses in Vernon Hills and Gurnee. He noted the golf business is becoming more competitive and the expansion of the Arboretum' s facilities will allow them to market the course to its fullest. Mr. Szymborski stated the course is now severely limited by its current facilities. Presently, there is only one toilet in the men' s room and women's room and no locker or shower facilities. There is also only one changing room at present. Mr. Szymborski stated that due to the $1,5000,000 cost of a new facility similar to the one at Buffalo Grove Golf Course, they thought the better route would be to go with a temporary facility for a five year period so that the golf course can improve and work up its business. He noted that their time line for the new facility is targeted for Memorial Day. Mr. Carmen Molinaro stated the existing clubhouse was previously operated as the Fiore nursery sales office and intended to serve for a 3 to 5 year period. However, due to the need for ADA improvements, any new improvements to the golf course have now been pushed back another 3 to 5 years. Mr. Molinaro stated they are seeking to make the patio area slightly larger and add approximately 1,200 square feet next to the existing clubhouse. The pre-fabricated building would hold approximately 60 to 70 lockers in the men's room, 20 to 30 lockers in the women' s room, additional washroom facilities, shower facilities and a vestibule area for vending machines and pay phones. Mr. Molinaro stated the building would be of wooden slat siding with a sloped roof and shingles to match that of the existing clubhouse. He noted that they would blend this building in well with the area. Mr. Molinaro stated that these additions are needed to go after the corporate outing business. He noted that the lack of showers and lockers has been the biggest drawback. Mr. Molinaro stated the current parking requirement is for 120 spaces and there presently are 136 spaces in place. He noted they do not expect to get busier on the course on their busiest day. Rather, they are seeking to increase business on their less busy days. Therefore, there is no need for additional parking. Mr. Molinaro also stated that the additional building and expansion of the patio would not require expansion of any hours of Buffalo Grove Plan Comm-Regular Meeting-January 19, 1994-Page 3 operation. He noted that basically everyone is out of the area by 9: 00 p.m. He noted they have not received any complaints from residents about any disturbances with some of the larger outings held last year. Mr. Molinaro stated they will be adding some plantings and landscaping around the building and paving an area between the patio, locker room addition and clubhouse. He noted they would like to try to incorporate some kind of awning over this area connecting the three areas. He further noted some additional evergreens and plantings to further shield any views from adjacent homes. He stated that due to some elevation changes in the area and the large tree area, there should be no problem for the adjacent residents. Mr. Molinaro stated that Mr. Kuenkler has designed the sanitary sewer, water and storm sewer lines. He noted they have previously experienced some drainage problems in the patio area which will be addressed with the new storm sewer line. Vice Chairman Goldspiel asked if a public hearing was necessary for this plan. Mr. Pfeil stated that the Village attorney has concurred with the Village' s Board' s position that this is a minor project that will not require a public hearing, but should have a review by the Plan Commission and Appearance Commission. Commissioner Rhodes asked if the proposed building would be free standing or attached to the existing clubhouse. Mr. Molinaro stated the building would not be attached to the existing clubhouse and noted that the building will sit on concrete pilings and secured to the ground. Commissioner Rhodes asked what happens to the proposed facility in five years or so when a more permanent structure is proposed. Mr. Molinaro stated that the whole area would probably be leveled when a permanent facility is financially feasible. He further noted that the pre-fabricated building would be sold as it has some resale value. Commissioner Rhodes asked if a public hearing would be called for if and when a permanent new structure was proposed. Mr. Pfeil stated the plans would be reviewed by the Plan Commission and a public hearing would be held for a large project. Commissioner Rhodes asked how much the proposed building and patio area would cost. Buffalo Grove Plan Comm-Regular Meeting-January 19, 1994-Page 4 Mr. Molinaro stated the budget for the proposed improvements is $200,000. Commissioner Rhodes noted his concern with the building appearance for the sake of both golfers and residents. He asked where the mechanical equipment would be placed. Mr. Molinaro stated the mechanicals would be housed at the back of the building and the Appearance Commission would be reviewing their plans shortly. Commissioner Rhodes asked if Mr. Kuenkler is satisfied with the sewer and storm systems. Mr. Kuenkler stated affirmatively. Commissioner Krug asked if there would be any underdrains under the patio tent area. Mr. Molinaro stated that the land slopes from the north to the south into a grassy area and there is no build up of water in the patio area. The patio itself is of interlocking stone on a 12 inch base of sand. The only water accumulation is in the grassy area. Commissioner Krug asked if this would be a permanent tent. Mr. Molinaro stated it would basically be up six months of the year from May 1st to October 1st. Commissioner Genell stated that this is a very necessary and welcome improvement for the Village. Commissioner Genell asked if the neighbors had been notified and if there had been any comments from anyone. Mr. Molinaro stated the neighbors had been notified and he had received no comments from residents. Commissioner Berman asked if there would be any kind of permanent sound system. Mr. Molinaro stated there was no need for a permanent sound system very often. If there was the occasional need during a large outing one could be brought out for that outing. Commissioner Howard asked what kind of landscaping would be used. Mr. Molinaro described rudimentary landscaping plans which would be discussed in greater detail during the Appearance Commission hearing. Commissioner Samuels asked if the tent would be on grass or on the Buffalo Grove Plan Comm-Regular Meeting-January 19, 1994-Page 5 patio. Mr. Molinaro stated the old tent was 30 X 50 feet and will be disposed of. The patio which is also 30 X 50 feet will made approximately 60 X 50 feet and the new tent will be slightly larger than the old tent, and it will not cover the entire patio area. Commissioner Samuels asked if the area under the tent would be paved or simply grass. He noted that at a previous outing under the old tent, the ground under the tent became saturated during a violent rainstorm and he did not feel particularly safe. Mr. Molinaro stated that all of the tent area plus 10 or 15 feet beyond would be paved. Commissioner Samuels asked if there would be some sort of drain tile around the perimeter of the tent area. Mr. Kuenkler stated that there is no drain tile proposed around the perimeter area but the grading should take care of the problem and the new storm sewer will capture the water. Mr. Molinaro stated the slope of the land goes from north to south and the tent will be in the northernmost two-thirds of the paved area and no accumulation of water is anticipated on any paved area. Commissioner Samuels asked if any thought had been given to the eventual reconstruction of the entire facility and the necessity of moving the water and sewer lines. Mr. Kuenkler stated the water and sewer lines would be abandoned, and new lines would be installed for a permanent facility. Vice Chairman Goldspiel asked exactly where the mechanicals will be located. Mr. Molinaro stated the mechanicals will be located on the north side of the building and attached to the outside walls. Vice Chairman Goldspiel asked what the probability is that the pre-fab building will be replaced with a permanent building. Mr. Molinaro stated that the probability of a new structure within the next 3 to 5 years is about 90 per cent. Vice Chairman Goldspiel asked if there are building codes which apply to this building and, if so, have these codes been considered. Mr. Szymborski stated that a State of Illinois health Buffalo Grove Plan Comm-Regular Meeting-January 19, 1994-Page 6 certification applies to such a building. He noted that the building is manufactured in Indiana and there is a reciprocal agreement between Illinois and Indiana governing the required codes of both states. Vice Chairman Goldspiel asked what the Illinois code is for. Mr. Szymborski stated the code is for pre-fabricated buildings. Vice Chairman Goldspiel stated he is unfamiliar with the State codes and would like to be sure that the building will be safe and habitable. Mr. Szymborski stated that the Director of Building and Zoning and the Deputy Director reviewed the plan to assure the Village that the codes that the Village require would be met through the State process and they have noted that they are comfortable with the building. Vice Chairman Goldspiel asked how safe the building would be in the event of a severe storm. Mr. Szymborski stated that a pre-fabricated building is probably safer than a trailer but less safe than a building such as the clubhouse which has a basement. He noted that it would not be recommended to take shelter in the pre-fabricated building. Mr. Molinaro stated that proper precautions would be taken to ensure everyone's safety and everyone is advised of impending severe weather and even pulled off the course if necessary Vice Chairman Goldspiel asked if there would be any staff in the proposed building. Mr. Molinaro stated there would be staff on hand for larger affairs and as needed. Vice Chairman Goldspiel asked what consideration had been given to the safety of the tent in the event of a storm. Mr. Molinaro stated that his research has determined that a pole tent secured in concrete and steel ties is the safest kind of tent and this is the one that they will be purchasing. He further noted that the tent is in an area that is sheltered somewhat by the trees and does not usually get the full brunt of a storm. Vice Chairman Goldspiel asked if there was any code for the tent. Mr. Pfeil stated that the Fire Department noted there are codes that apply. Vice Chairman Goldspiel asked why there is such a difference in Buffalo Grove Plan Comm-Regular Meeting-January 19, 1994-Page 7 the size and number of facilities between the men's room and the women's room. Mr. Molinaro stated that this was the result of the mix of clientele at both courses and what has been observed at the Buffalo Grove course. Vice Chairman Goldspiel noted his concern with the kind of face that is presented to traffic on Route 22 . He stated he hoped that some thought would be given to some sort of detailing or planning on that north side. Mr. Molinaro stated there is some ornamental shrubbery and trees slated for this area that is not shown on the plans and that they would be looking into this as the building is installed, especially since the heating and air conditioning would be on that side also. Victor Robin, 349 Willow Parkway, asked how the tent would be in relation to the trees. Mr. Molinaro stated the tent would be the same height as the existing tent which is approximately ten feet at the center. Mr. Robin asked if any trees are scheduled to be removed. Mr. Molinaro stated no trees were planned to be removed. Mr. Robin stated that some of the trees are partially dead or dying and asked if they would be replaced when trimmed. Mr. Molinaro stated there are a few dead specimens that are dead and same will be replaced when they are removed. Mr. Robin asked where parking would be expanded if and when a larger permanent facility is developed. Mr. Molinaro stated they do not see the need for an expanded parking lot as business would not decrease on already busy days, however, they are hoping to increase business on less busy days. Mr. Robin stated that he received his mailed meeting notice on January 17th for a meeting held on January 19th which is rather short notice and he stated he would hope that the residents would be given longer notice in the future. Mr. Wayne Mellingham, 345 Willow Parkway, asked if liquor is served at the outings. Mr. Molinaro stated generally liquor is served. Mr. Mellingham asked if there is any concern of liability when holding outings during high winds or other severe weather. Buffalo Grove Plan Comm-Regular Meeting-January 19, 1994-Page 8 Mr. Molinaro stated that this situation seldom occurs unless severe weather crops up suddenly during an outing at which time everyone at the outing would be advised to leave the course. Mr. Mellingham asked why it was necessary to spend this kind of money on a temporary facility. Mr. Molinaro stated that much of the money that would have been targeted for course improvements had been reallocated for ADA improvements. Instead of waiting for three to five years doing nothing the decision was made to invest some dollars now and improve the course in order to generate enough revenue to become self sufficient. Hopefully these improvements will put the course in a healthy position that will justify spending larger amounts for future improvements. Mr. Mellingham noted that he would appreciate the removal of the existing dead trees. Commissioner Rhodes asked how many exits there would be for the proposed building addition. Mr. Molinaro stated there would be a main entrance/exit and an additional emergency exit in each of the locker areas. Mr. John Mangan, 2537 Live Oak Lane, asked if the new tent would be up on an ongoing basis. Mr. Molinaro stated that, weather permitting, the tent would be up from May 1st through October 1st. Mr. Mangan asked if the tent is used for larger outings only. Mr. Molinaro stated the tent is generally used for larger outings. Mr. Mangan asked if increased corporate outings would be allowed to stay later on the course. He noted concern with increased noise levels for such larger groups. Mr. Molinaro stated that 99 percent of the time everyone would be out of the entire facility by 9:00 p.m. There may be one time a year when a party may go to 9:30 p.m. but that would be about the latest a group would stay. Commissioner Krug noted that the doors from the locker rooms �../ should swing into the vestibule or be eliminated altogether. He further noted that if the lockers were reconfigured, several additional lockers could be picked up and the dead corners could be eliminated. Mr. Molinaro stated that any additional rounds over 2500 will pay Buffalo Grove Plan Comm-Regular Meeting-January 19, 1994-Page 9 for the building addition. Commissioner Genell asked how many people can be accommodated at a corporate outing. Mr. Molinaro stated approximately 200 people can be accommodated in the tent area. Moved by Commissioner Genell, seconded by Commissioner Rhodes, to recommend approval of the improvements to the Arboretum Golf Course as a minor amendment to the Special Use. Commissioner Berman, speaking in favor of the motion, stated this is a practical and rational approach to the problems of the course and this will be a welcome additional to the Village. Vice Chairman Goldspiel noted his concern with the pre-fab building and tent. He noted that this is not typically the kind of thing to be put forward in one of the finest attractions of the Village. However, he stated that he is confident that the Village will make good in its representation that this is only a temporary facility until a permanent facility is forthcoming and he will support the motion on that basis. Vice Chairman Goldspiel called for a vote on the motion and the vote was as follows: AYES: Krug, Rhodes, Howard, Rosenston, Samuels, Genell, Berman, Goldspiel NAYES: None ABSENT: Chairman Silbernik ABSTAIN: None The motion passed 8 to 0. PRAIRIE GROVE SUBDIVISION, WEST SIDE OF PRAIRIE ROAD SOUTH OF DISTRICT 102 MIDDLE SCHOOL - ANNEXATION WITH R-3 ZONING AND APPROVAL OF A PRELIMINARY PLAN -- WORKSHOP #2 Mr. Jeffrey Samuels stated that the concept plan has been revised to reflect comments made by the Plan Commission at the first workshop. The plan now shows a 60 foot right-of-way for the collector street on the west side of the site. In addition the revised plan eliminates the . 67-acre active parkland dedication in the southwest corner of the site per discussion with the Park District. He stated that the Park District appears to be willing to plan for a larger active use site farther to the south in a more centrally located area. Mr. Samuels stated that concerns with the lots located closest to the school have been reviewed, and lots six through ten have been increased in size to 135 feet. Buffalo Grove Plan Comm-Regular Meeting-January 19, 1994-Page 10 Mr. Samuels noted the Plan Commission's request to see an overall comprehensive plan for the property which is currently undeveloped to the south and that this area plan has been laid out by Village staff. Mr. Samuels further stated they have attempted to add interest to the proposed road by adding a great degree of movement and curves to the road. Commissioner Rosenston asked about the status of the property south of the subject site. Mr. Pfeil stated that the property is an unincorporated area and the Village has received no petition for annexation. Basically the land is available for development for the right sale price but it is not known when a developer will purchase the property and propose a plan to the Village. Commissioner Rosenston noted concern with the lack of access to Prairie Road prior to the development of streets connecting to Prairie Road. He further noted that concern with the long dead end street system that would serve the development until areas to the south are developed. He noted that emergency vehicles would have only one way into the development, and the street is quite long. Mr. Pfeil suggested that a walkway could be put across the south side of the detention area for a pedestrian walkway to the sidewalk on Prairie Road. He further noted that the Fire Department does not want anything less than a pavement built to street standards, even for a road used only for emergency access. He noted that the Fire Chief is concerned with the length of the dead-end street system but believes he can adequately service the area. The Fire Chief, however, said he would not want this situation to continue for a period of more than one or two years. Commissioner Rosenston asked if there were any comments from the Police Department. Mr. Pfeil stated there were no comments as yet from the Police Department. Commissioner Rosenston asked if there would be T turns at the end of the incomplete roads. Mr. Samuels stated they had proposed to put in temporary cul-de- sacs or whatever the Fire Department recommends. He noted that the Fire Chief has indicated that since the dead-end street stubs are relatively short, equipment could be backed out without needing a cul-de-sac for turning around. Commissioner Rosenston asked about the price range of the homes. Buffalo Grove Plan Comm-Regular Meeting-January 19, 1994-Page 11 Mr. Samuels stated the homes would be priced in the low to mid $300, 000 range. Commissioner Rosenston asked if there would be sidewalks on both sides of the street. Mr. Samuels noted there would be sidewalks on both, sides of the street. Commissioner Howard asked if the detention area would be dry. Mr. Samuels stated it would be dry. Commissioner Howard stated she echos the concerns of the other Commissioners regarding the lack of emergency access. Commissioner Howard asked how many feet it is from the property line to the school. Mr. Samuels stated there is approximately 60 to 70 feet between the property line and the school. Commissioner Howard asked if there are any plans for berming in this area. Mr. Samuels stated they have not yet gotten into landscaping or fencing. He stated that they will probably have to treat this area with either a green fence or some sort of barrier depending on the kind of feedback they would get from potential buyers. He noted that it would be necessary for the school to allow them to use some of their property for any kind of berming. Commissioner Genell stated she would like to see some kind of landscaping or berming between the mixed uses. Commissioner Genell asked if there would be any inner walkways within the subdivision or cut-throughs to the school. Mr. Samuels said he has not anticipated any cut-throughs as yet because wherever you put the sidewalk the kids are bound to find a different path. Commissioner Krug stated he has great difficulty in accepting dead end streets due to a prior Village tragedy involving the same type of situation where the Fire Department was unable to reach kids in a home. He stated that it might be better if parking is prohibited on both sides of the street so that the Fire Department could get through if necessary. He noted that would probably be the only way he could support this plan. Mr. Samuels stated that it would be difficult to police a no Buffalo Grove Plan Comm-Regular Meeting-January 19, 1994-Page 12 parking on either side of the street law. He stated that there is adequate access along the 60 foot right-of-way and noted that it would be easy to enforce no parking on one side of the street but impossible to do so for both sides of the street. Commissioner Krug stated he would like to hear the Fire Department comments regarding no parking on only one side of the street. Commissioner Rhodes stated that he finds it very hard to accept the plan as is because if anything were to go wrong the finger would be pointed at the Plan Commission for allowing the development to be built this way. Commissioner Rhodes asked if there would be a fence along the northern property line. Mr. Samuels stated he was not sure yet about any fencing along the northern property line. Commissioner Rhodes stated that he would like to see a walkway between lots 8 and 9 so that kids could walk to school. Commissioner Genell asked if there were any concerns with the plan at the Village Board level. Mr. Marienthal stated the Trustees were also concerned with the length of the cul-de-sac and stated that the developer was well informed of that fact. Vice Chairman Goldspiel asked why the alternate plan is considered less desirable than the one presented. Mr. Samuels stated that on the alternate plan there were three homes with rear yards facing the collector street. In addition there would be one home that would have three sides along streets. As you drive into the subdivision you would immediately come to the first local street intersection, and this would not create a perception of openness for the neighborhood. He further noted that the larger lots developed adjacent to the school will still suffer from their proximity to the school and this will affect their marketability no matter how large the lot is. Vice Chairman Goldspiel noted that he is inclined to agree with Mr. Samuels regarding the lots adjacent to the school. He noted that although he is not normally in favor of all the larger lot homes being built, in this instance, the larger lot homes are desirable, particularly those near the entrance to the cul-de-sac. Vice Chairman Goldspiel asked what the detention would be like. Mr. Samuels stated, the detention would be dry and four feet in depth. Buffalo Grove Plan Comm-Regular Meeting-January 19, 1994-Page 13 Vice Chairman Goldspiel noted that a pathway to Prairie Road is a desirable feature. He also noted that another pathway to the school requires some thought. Mr. Samuels stated that pathways often become dangerous for kids if home owners on each side decide to install tall fences. Vice Chairman Goldspiel noted that Village ordinances will prohibit tall fences for the length of the sideyards. Vice Chairman Goldspiel stated that the pathway to the school would be nice if it could be worked into the plan and further noted that access to Prairie Road is very significant and would even consider this for a bikepath. Vice Chairman Goldspiel noted that as there will be a side yard presentation onto a collector street, the yards proposed in this plan are large enough to support this kind of a setback without a problem. Vice Chairman Goldspiel noted that Mr. Samuels should check with the Fire Chief regarding the design of the eyebrow in the northeast corner of the street to see if there is anything that will mitigate some of the turn around problems. Commissioner Rhodes asked what kind of product is being proposed. Mr. Samuels stated the proposed homes would be four bedroom, two and one half bath homes, with studies and two garages and a possible third car option. The Plan Commission agreed the plan would go to public hearing with the following items to be fully addressed: 1. Emergency access 2 . Walkways to the School property 3. Buffering along north boundary adjoining the School 4. Park donation and location Commissioner Howard stated a walkway to the school may be a good idea, however, it does put a burden on the homeowners and further encourages the congregation of young people along the walkway at night which diminishes its attractiveness. Vice Chairman Goldspiel noted that there are a number of similar walkways which have been functioning for the last 15 years in the Village and have not been a problem. Commissioner Rosenston asked why the access to Prairie Road is located so far south on the area plan. Mr. Pfeil stated that this road is located in this area because it Buffalo Grove Plan Comm-Regular Meeting-January 19, 1994-Page 14 needs to be approximately half way between Brandywyn Lane and Aptakisic Road. He noted that when plans for the east side of Prairie Road are defined, the connections to Prairie Road can be adjusted to create intersections or offsets. MANCHESTER GREENS PHASE II - FINAL PLAT FOR FIRST RESUBDIVISION Moved by Commissioner Rhodes, seconded by Commissioner Rosenston to recommend approval by the Village Board of the Manchester Greens, Phase II First Resubdivision dated January 11, 1994 (2 pages) . Mr. Green stated that the building envelopes for the lots that are being changed are delineated with dark lines on the plat; these lots are being made two and one half feet larger than on the original plat. Vice Chairman Goldspiel asked if this is for larger dwelling units or for some other reason. Mr. Green stated that the change is needed because the unit mix has to be adjusted to accommodate the units that buyers are requesting. Some of the units have a different footprint than what can be accommodated on the original plat. He noted the driveway locations and separations between units are not being changed. Vice Chairman Goldspiel asked if the plat is in full compliance and if it has been reviewed for closure. Mr. Kuenkler noted all is in order except for the error in the legal description which needs to change lot 56 instead of lot 54. Vice Chairman Goldspiel called for a vote on the motion and the vote was as follows: AYES: Krug, Rhodes, Howard, Rosenston, Samuels, Genell, Berman, Goldspiel NAYES: None ABSENT: Chairman Silbernik ABSTAIN: None The motion passed 8 to 0. BUFFALO GROVE BUSINESS PARK, UNIT 8 (OUTBACK STEAKHOUSE) - FINAL PLAT OF SUBDIVISION Moved by Commissioner Rhodes, seconded by Commissioner Rosenston to recommend approval to the Village Board of the Buffalo Grove Business Park, Unit 8 Outback Steakhouse, Final Plat of Subdivision dated December 27, 1993 (2 pages) . Vice Chairman Goldspiel asked if the motion was subject to the Buffalo Grove Plan Comm-Regular Meeting-January 19, 1994-Page 15 addition of the 25 foot building setback line along Weidner Road. Commissioner Rhodes stated yes. Vice Chairman Goldspiel asked if staff had reviewed the plat for compliance with the approved plan and for closure. Mr. Kuenkler replied yes. Vice Chairman Goldspiel asked if the additional parking needs to be shown or delineated. Mr. Kuenkler stated that the parking is not really within the boundary of the area being subdivided so it is really a separate document and is really more of a zoning issue. Mr. Pfeil stated that the PUD requiring the parking will be reviewed as part of the building permit approval. Vice Chairman Goldspiel called for a vote on the motion and the vote was as follows: AYES: Krug, Rhodes, Howard, Rosenston, Samuels, Genell, Berman Goldspiel NAYES: None ABSENT: Chairman Silbernik ABSTAIN: None The motion passed 8 to 0. CHAIRMAN'S REPORT - None FUTURE AGENDA SCHEDULE Mr. Pfeil stated the next meeting is scheduled for February 2, 1994. PUBLIC COMMENTS AND OUESTIONS - None STAFF REPORT - None NEW BUSINESS - None ADJOURNMENT Moved by Commissioner Rhodes, seconded by Commissioner Krug and carried unanimously to adjourn. Vice Chairman Goldspiel adjourned the meeting at 10:02 p.m. Buffalo Grove Plan Comm-Regular Meeting-January 19, 1994-Page 16 Respe fully s bmitted, Fay ubin ecording Secretary AP ROVED BY: S EP EN GOLDSPIEL, Vice Chairman Buffalo Grove Plan Comm-Regular Meeting-January 19, 1994-Page 17
