Consider a Variation for a RV (Boat) at 22 Columbus Parkway (Trustee Ottenheimer) (Staff Contact: Chris Stilling) Mr. Leo Lopez, brother of Mr. Juan Lopez, and Mrs. Yadria Lopez, 22 Columbus Parkway, were present and sworn in. Mrs. Lopez stated that she lives at 22 Columbus Parkway and has lived there for the last 25 years. Mr. Leo Lopez explained that the boat is parked in the same location it has been for the last 10 years. Neighbors are present that support the request. The property is a pie- shaped lot. The area is kept clean. His brother has good relations with the neighbors. They will do what they can to make the boat less obtrusive. The boat has not been an issue for the last 10 years. They have signed petitions from the neighbors. They are willing to put in concrete and maybe modify the fence. They are asking for guidance from the Planning & Zoning Commission (PZC). Ch. Cesario noted that there is reference to pavers being installed in the packet and now the testimony is to install concrete. He asked if the Petitioner will install an acceptable surface if the variation is granted. Mr. Leo Lopez responded yes. Ch. Cesario appreciates that the Petitioner had talked to the neighbors and asked if the Petitioner had spoken to the neighbor at 912 Prague Avenue. Mr. Leo Lopez responded yes, and stated that the owner of 912 Prague Avenue was present. Ch. Cesario asked if the Petitioner will move the boat slightly to comply with the recommendation of staff. Mr. Leo Lopez responded that applying the hard surface would allow his brother to move the boat to the recommended location. Ch. Cesario asked about screening and stated that it is a tall boat, approximately 9 feet in height. Mr. Leo Lopez responded that he was not sure of the exact height or about the type of screening that would be necessary. Ch. Cesario asked how many times the boat is used each season. Mr. Leo Lopez stated about 4 times during the summer. Ch. Cesario asked if the boat could be stored somewhere else. Mr. Leo Lopez responded possibly. Com. Moodhe stated that the boat is still being stored on the far side of the lot and recommended installing taller shrubs closer to the fence. Mr. Leo Lopez responded that they must be able to tow the boat out but could consider installing shrubs. Com. Moodhe commented that it would be easier to pull the boat in and out of the driveway than the current location. Mr. Leo Lopez stated that they will do what the Village tells them to do. Com. Moodhe asked about storage of the boat during the off-season. Mr. Leo Lopez responded that storage is possible. Com. Moodhe understands that there are other properties with recreational vehicles (RV’s) but this boat needs to be addressed. He is also concerned about coming to a conclusion without the Petitioner, Mr. Juan Lopez, being present. Ch. Cesario advised that two parties were present that are authorized to speak on behalf of the Petitioner, Mrs. Yadira Lopez and Mrs. Elisa Lopez, and asked staff if the PZC could proceed. Mr. Brankin advised that the PZC can proceed, but shares the same concerns as Com. Moodhe and would want the authorized representatives to agree to any conclusion. Com. Moodhe asked staff about the timeline of this RV, 04/17/2019 specifically if it goes back to October, 2018. Mr. Stilling responded yes, it is difficult for the Petitioner due to his work schedule. Com. Khan is concerned about making any decision without speaking directly with the authorized representatives. Ms. Elisa Lopez, 22 Columbus Parkway, was present and sworn in. She is Mr. Juan Lopez’s mother. She has lived with her son for the last 15 years. Her son has had the boat for the last 10 years. They use the boat about 3 to 4 times during the summer. Her son does not get much vacation time. It costs too much money to store the boat somewhere else. She asked to be able to keep the boat on the property. Com. Khan stated that the Petitioner is allowed to leave the boat on the property for part of the year and asked if the boat could be stored off-site the rest of the year. Mrs. Yadira Lopez asked about the dates the boat could stay on the property. Com. Khan advised the dates run May 15th through September 30th. The other 6 to 6-1/2 months the Petitioner could follow the Ordinance and the boat could be moved off-site. Com. Khan asked staff about the current location of the boat. Mr. Stilling responded that curre ntly the storage requirements are not met, there is no hard surface. Com. Khan asked Mrs. Yadira Lopez if they agree to move the boat off-site for storage and install a hard surface for the boat to be located on during the allowable timeframe. Mrs. Yadira Lopez responded yes, they can move the boat during the winter and install a hard surface. Com. Weinstein stated that the property has tall shrubs all over except for where the boat is parked. He believes the Petitioner could install taller shrubs both in front of and behind the boat. Mrs. Yadira Lopez agreed to plant taller shrubs. Com. Weinstein asked staff if there would be a front yard coverage issue to expand the driveway to park the boat on. Mr. Stilling stated that he needs more information to determine but that it does not appear that it would be an issue. Ch. Cesario confirmed with the Petitioner’s representatives, Mrs. Yadira Lopez and Mrs. Elisa Lopez, that they agree to store the boat off-site from October 1st through May 14th every year and will install a hard surface to park the boat on during the allowable time period. Ch. Cesario entered the Staff Report dated April 17, 2019 as Exhibit 1. Mr. Rayo Krutoyarskiy, 912 Prague Avenue, was present and sworn in. Mr. Krutoyarskiy stated that the Petitioner’s boat has been there since he moved in. They maintain the boat and they are good neighbors. He does not have any issues with the boat. Storage prices can be a lot for a middle class family to afford. The other neighbors agree. Mr. Stilling asked Mr. Krutoyarskiy if he has a boat on his property. Mr. Krutoyarskiy responded yes, for about 2 years. He had been storing it at a friend’s house, but the friend is trying to sell his house and he had to bring the boat back to his property. He is trying to find a place to store it. 04/17/2019 Com. Moodhe asked Mr. Krutoyarskiy how big his boat is. Mr. Krutoyarskiy stated it is 26 feet. Com. Moodhe asked how long the boat has been on Mr. Krutoyarskiy’s property. Mr. Krutoyarskiy responded about 2 to 2-1/2 weeks. When the Ordinance was approved, he moved the boat but now he needs to find a new place. Com. Moodhe asked if he is trying to help his neighbor find a place to store their boat too. Mr. Krutoyarskiy stated that he is trying but is finding that it is expensive. His boat is 27 years old. Com. Moodhe asked how many times Mr. Krutoyarskiy takes his boat out during the season. Mr. Krutoyarskiy responded about 4 to 5 times last year. He is planning to get a slip for the boat. Storage for the winter is a financial burden. He and his neighbor both bought their boats before the current Ordinance was in effect. Ch. Cesario appreciates the comments and asked for both to consider the regulations of the Ordinance. Mr. Metin Durmus, 920 Prague Avenue, was present and sworn in. Mr. Durmus stated that Buffalo Grove took over that area in 2004. The Ordinance should not be an issue. The whole subdivision is in need of re-grading. Shrubs take years to grow. He believes that the Ordinance is bogus. You can’t find 10 foot tall shrubs. He understands the issue with the easement but the boat does not bother anyone. The boat is not even parked on the driveway. He has lived here since 1976. The Village is just trying to get money. They should be able to park on their street anytime they want. He believes the Ordinance is a disgrace. Com. Goldspiel advised that the screening does not need to be taller than the boat, but tall enough to take the majority of the view of it away. A small shrub will help. When the area was incorporated, the residents wanted it. Mr. Durmus responded that the residents did not want it. There were no additional questions or comments from the Commissioners. There were no additional questions or comments from the audience. The public hearing was closed at 8:13 PM. Ch. Cesario confirmed that based on the agreement made by the Petitioner’s representatives that the variance request is withdrawn. The boat will conform to the Ordinance for the allowable timelines and an approved hard surface will be installed. Therefore, no motion is in order. Com. Moodhe asked staff about compliance. Mr. Stilling advised that staff will work with the Petitioner to ensure compliance. 3. Consider a Variation for Two Ground Signs for Strathmore Square Shopping Center Located at 1151-1165 Arlington Heights Road & 1170 - 1182 McHenry Road (Trustee Ottenheimer) (Staff Contact: Chris Stilling) Ms. Pam Bennett, McKenzie Management, 2720 S. River Road, Des Plaines, IL was present and sworn in. Ms. Bennett explained that the retail center is comprised of 2 buildings, one along Arlington Heights Road and one along McHenry Road. McKenzie Management has 04/17/2019 managed the center since 2012. Harris Bank occupies an outlot building on the corner. They had looked at installing one ground sign, but due to visibility, they are asking for a second ground sign. Ch. Cesario confirmed with Ms. Bennett that the purpose of the second sign is for identification. These are busy streets and the two buildings are disconnected. He also confirmed that the tenant spaces are fully leased. Mr. Stilling advised that staff supports the request and the size conforms to the Sign Code requirements. Ms. Akash added that the Village received 2 calls inquiring about the variation and there were no concerns expressed. Ch. Cesario entered the Staff Report dated April 17, 2019 as Exhibit 1. There were no additional questions or comments from the Commissioners. There were no questions or comments from the audience. The public hearing was closed at 8:20 PM. Moved by Com.

Consider an Amendment to Ordinance 1979-46 and 1980-51, as Amended by Ordinances 1998-012, 1998-048 and 2000-1 for a New Medical Office Building and Commercial Use in the B3 Planned Business District with Variations to the Buffalo Grove Zoning Ordinance, Development Ordinance and Sign Code for the Property Located at 15 S McHenry Rd, 35 S. McHenry Rd and 125 E. Lake Cook Rd (Trustee Stein) (Staff Contact: Chris Stilling) Mr. Matt Campbell, MedProperties Group, 40 Skokie Boulevard, Northbrook, Illinois, was present and sworn in. Also present were Mr. David Dastur, Jensen & Halstead, Ltd., 820 W. Jackson Blvd., Suite 850, Chicago, IL 60607; Mr. Stephen Corcoran, Eriksson Engineering Associates, Ltd., 145 Commerce Drive, Suite A, Grayslake, IL 60030; Mr. Michael Trippiedi, Trippiedi Design, 920 Sundew Court, Aurora, IL 60504; and Attorney Harold Francke, Meltzer, Purtill & Stelle, LLC, 1515 East Woodfield Road, Schaumburg, IL 60173 were present and sworn in. 04/17/2019 Mr. Campbell reviewed the proposed project as detailed in the packet. He described the phasing of the project, approximately 15 months from start to finish. He reviewed the site development, project background and current status. They are proceeding with the alternative plan. They are seeking four variations. He referred to Mr. Dastur for more details. Mr. Dastur reviewed the existing site. Some land was taken per eminent domain as part of the Lake Cook Road improvement project. They will maintain the existing driveways along Weiland Road and McHenry Road. The driveway on Lake Cook Road will be moved west to accommodate the site improvements. He reviewed the proposed renderings of the medical office building. This is the new look for a ll NCH outpatient buildings. There are tall trees on the south of the property. The rendering has those trees removed so you can see the proposed south elevation. He reviewed the services that will be provided at the new medical outpatient building. He reviewed the requested variation pertaining to setback, signs, parking counts and the tree replacement. They are seeking a 46 foot setback in lieu of the required 64 foot. They are seeking a variation to allow 5 ground signs. The signs are needed for wayfinding. Three of the proposed NCH signs are smaller than what is allowed by Code and the signs will be nicely landscaped. Mr. Corcoran reviewed the requested variation for the parking. They are requesting 292 spaces in lieu of the required 353 spaces. He explained the reasoning for the request and advised that the studies used to determine the proposed number is consistent with today’s medical building occupancies. Mr. Trippiedi reviewed the proposed tree replacement variation request to waive the fee. He reviewed the proposed landscaping plan. The developer is proposing an approximate $350,000.00 investment in the landscaping. He reviewed the tree preservation plan. He stated that the Village Forrester has given affirmation that their situation is unprecedented and understands that the tree removal is logical. Based on the site, they cannot replace the removed trees. Mr. Francke reviewed the standards and how the standards have been met in order for the Planning & Zoning Commission (PZC) to grant relief. The property has unique circumstances. It is surrounded on three sides by roadways and they lost some land. The proposed project will not be detrimental to the public health, safety and welfare. The proposed project is not contrary to the purposes of the Zonin g Ordinance and Sign Code. The proposed project will not alter the essential character of the neighborhood. Lastly, the property cannot yield a reasonable return without allowing the proposed project. Details of these can be found in the packet. They are also seeking to amend the PUD, for which the standards have been met to amend. He stated that the standards to grant the Sign Code variations have been met. He reviewed the request to waive the tree replacement fee as required by Title 16 and presented 5 justifications. Com. Au asked about the type of groundcover that will be used in the landscaping. Mr. Trippiedi responded that perennials will be used since they come back every spring. Ch. Cesario asked staff if approval will be subject to final engineeri ng approval. Mr. Stilling responded yes. 04/17/2019 Com. Goldspiel asked about the current condition of the trees from the previous work on the site. Mr. Trippiedi explained that the existing site was originally built in the 1970’s. Com. Goldspiel asked if the existing trees will be protected if the project moves forward. Mr. Trippiedi responded yes and described the techniques that would be used to protect the existing trees. Com. Goldspiel wants to ensure the protection of the existing trees. Mr. Trippiedi explained that they cannot protect the trees on the surplus lot. Com. Goldspiel asked if the surplus lot is expected to be built on. Mr. Trippiedi responded that there is no intent to develop the surplus lot. Mr. Campbell added that it is economically unfeasible to build on that lot. Com. Goldspiel asked if there is any way to save more key trees. Mr. Trippiedi explained that they are saving the majority of high-value trees. He described the areas. Com. Goldspiel asked if the increased pavement will have an adverse effect on the trees. Mr. Trippiedi responded no. Com. Goldspiel stated that the proposed retail building is not the final footprint and asked if it is possible to save more trees. Mr. Trippiedi explained that it is possible. The retail building will only require the removal of 4 trees. Mr. Campbell added that any retailer for the out lot will need to go through the Village review and approval process. Com. Goldspiel asked about the parking analysis under Table 3 on page 95. Mr. Corcoran explained that different studies were looked at that takes into account different staff and patient numbers. They performed a secondary check of the numbers. Com. Goldspiel advised that he has looked at this petition and recalled his experience with parking for this type of use in the past and found that usually the parking numbers fell short. He asked about the studies used for parking at the Busse Center. Mr. Corcoran is not familiar with that building. He has completed studies for other buildings with similar uses and the numbers are consistent. Mr. Dastur responded that the Busse Center is actually on the hospital campus. The propped parking ratio is consistent with the new outpatient building under construction in Kildeer and with the existing outpatient building in Mount Prospect. He described the theory of a larger building with less staff. Mr. Corcoran added that the immediate care portion of the building needs less parking and utilizes more space with diagnostic equipment. Com. Goldspiel asked what experience NCH has to ensure that the proposed parking numbers are accurate. Mr. Corcoran described the method used to calculate the number of required spaces. This is the same method used to calculate the proposed number of parking stalls at the new outpatient building on Rand Road and the anticipated parking turnover. Mr. Stilling added that the proposed parking is similar to the total number of parking on the current site. Com. Weinstein asked staff if the Petitioner is requesting a full waiver of the cash -in-lieu of replacement. Mr. Stilling advised that staff is looking for the thoughts and comments from the PZC. The Village Board will have the ultimate approval. Mr. Francke understands staff’s concerns with setting a precedent. However, he had identified a full list of unique circumstances. Mr. Stilling added that the proposed landscaping plan is above and beyond what is required. Replacement of the removed trees is not feasible. Staff will continue to work the Petitioner to address staff’s concerns. Mr. Francke responded that the Petitioner has responded and addressed the hardship to replace the trees removed. He referred to justification #4 in the packet. Com. Cohn asked staff about the formula to monetize the loss of trees. Mr. Stilling advised the Village Forrester determines the calculated cost and described the process. Staff is hesitant to waive the fee. Com. Cohn asked about the value of the proposed site work compared to what is being lost. Mr. Stilling responded that staff is looking for thoughts from the PZC. Com. Cohn is not prepared to come up with a dollar amount. The Village Forrester should determine the cost. 04/17/2019 Com. Moodhe agrees with Com. Cohn. He also believes that the Lake Cook Road expansion should be considered. He does not want to eliminate payment-in-lieu of replacement. He confirmed with the Petitioner that the main proposed ground sign will be 12-1/2 feet tall. He asked the Petitioner to consider reducing the height of the additional ground signs. He does not want the Petitioner to use the Lake Cook Corridor plan against the Village. Mr. Dastur responded that the 10 foot tall ground signs were already considerably reduced in height. Com. Moodhe does not see the need for a 10 foot tall ground sign off Weiland Road and asked for a further reduction in height. Mr. Stilling noted that the total number of ground signs being requested is partially due to the out lot. If you take away the out lot, the Petitioner would still be allowed 3 ground signs. Com. Moodhe understands but still would like to see the Petitioner reduce the height of the signs. Com. Cohn asked if there would be any special events that would take place that would cause the parking to exceed the number of spaces. Mr. Dastur responded that the proposed building will not have assembly or conference space. Com. Cohn asked if there are any foreseeable issues with too little parking being provided. Mr. Corcoran responded they do not anticipate any issues. Ch. Cesario referred to Packet page 45. He believes that this is a nice proposal and an improvement to the existing site. He is supportive of the request. The proposed setback is similar to the existing building. The proposed landscaping and building elevations sell it and create a buffer. He believes the setback would be sufficient. He also believes that the proposed parking is adequate. He confirmed with the Petitioner that the numbers do not include any parking for the proposed retail out lot building. He struggles with the three proposed ground signs along Lake Cook Road. Five signs are a si gnificant number of signs. He asked what staff’s recommendation is. Mr. Stilling advised that staff would limit the number to no more than 4 signs. Ch. Cesario advised the Petitioner to consider allowing the PZC to vote for 4 signs. He commented that the P etitioner did a good job on the proposed landscaping. The Development Ordinance, as written, makes sense. He looked at the hardship presented. He is supportive of the project but recommends that cash-in-lieu of replacement be retained. He asked the Petitioner what direction they would like to take relative to the signs. Mr. Francke advised that he responded to the comments and stated that the PZC is only a recommending body. He feels the Petitioner has met the hardship requirements. He wants to proceed with the sign variation request as presented. There has to be a balance between the requirements of the Development Ordinance and the replacement cost of the lost trees. The Petitioner is trying to accommodate the Village’s goals concerning the Lake Cook Road Corridor Plan. The estimated cost to replace the trees is $176,000.00. The value of the proposed landscaping is 3 times the normal cost at $359,000.00. He welcomes the PZC’s recommendation but it is the Village Board that would ultimately approve the project. Ch. Cesario advised that this project is a positive economic value to the Petitioner. Mr. Francke responded that they had found an alternative way to achieve the storm water management without having to remove additional trees within the surplus lot. There were no additional questions or comments from the Commissioners. There were no questions or comments from the audience. Ch. Cesario entered the Staff Report dated April 15, 2019 as Exhibit 1. The public hearing was closed at 9:56 PM. 04/17/2019 Moved by Com. Weinstein, seconded by Com. Cohn, to recommend to the Village Board approval of the amendment to Ordinance 1979-46 and 1980-51, as amended by Ordinances 1998-012, 1998-048 and 2000-1 for a new medical office building and commercial use in the B3 Planned Business District with variations to the Buffalo Grove Zoning Ordinance, subject to the following conditions: 1. The proposed development shall be developed in substantial conformance to the plans attached as part of the petition. 2. The final engineering plans shall be submitted in a manner acceptable to the Village. 3. A final plat of subdivision shall be revised in a manner acceptable to the Village. The plat shall include a cross access easements in a manner and form acceptable to the Village. 4. The final landscape plan shall be revised in a manner acceptable to the Village. 5. The future development of parcel B shall be subject to the review and approval of the Village and in accordance with Village Code. 6. Future permitted and special uses on the Property shall comply with the B3 Planned Business Center District. Com. Weinstein believes that the Petitioner has met the standards for the recommended variations. Ch. Cesario is support of the motion. AYES: 7 - Au, Moodhe, Cohn, Goldspiel, Khan, Weinstein, Cesario NAYS: 0 - None ABSENT: 0 - None Motion passed. Moved by Com. Weinstein, seconded by Com. Cohn, to recommend approval of a variation to Chapter 14.16.060 of the Sign Code to allow for more than four ground signs, as depicted on the Sign Plans for the Development. Com. Cohn has no concerns regarding a fifth ground sign. The property is unique and he is okay with it. Com. Au has a bit of a concern. The fifth sign is logical. With the number of signs proposed, the signs could be made smaller and shortened in height. The main sign is proposed to be 12-1/2 feet tall, the other proposed signs are 10 feet. This could be confusing to motorists trying to locate the property entrance. Com. Moodhe agrees with Com. Au. The wayfinding signs could be smaller. He is okay with the number of proposed signs. 04/17/2019 Ch. Cesario agrees with both. If the signs are smaller, he would be okay with the number of signs. AYES: 5 - Au, Moodhe, Cohn, Khan, Weinstein NAYS: 2 - Goldspiel, Cesario ABSENT: 0 - None Motion passed. Moved by Com. Weinstein, seconded by Com. Moodhe, to recommend approval of a variation to Chapter 16.50.120 of the Development Ordinance regarding the replacement of trees for the Development. Com. Cohn does not support this request. Although he is not sure $359,000 is the correct dollar amount, this is a natural resource issue. He does not support striking “cash -in-lieu of”. Staff should determine an appropriate dollar figure. Com. Khan is also not supportive. He agrees that staff should determine the right dollar amount. The Village has lost a lot of trees in the last several years. AYES: 0 - None NAYS: 7 - Au, Moodhe, Cohn, Goldspiel, Khan, Weinstein, Cesario ABSENT: 0 - None Motion defeated. Regular Meeting Other Matters for Discussion None. Approval of Minutes 1.
