1991-02-20 - Plan Commission - Minutes PUBLIC HEARING BUFFALO GROVE PLAN COMMISSION February 20 , 1991 Chevy Chase Business Park East Rezoning from B-3 P.U.D. to O&R District Chairman Sheldon called the meeting to order at 7 : 30 p.m. and read the Notice of Public Hearing as published in the Buffalo Grove Daily Herald, explained the format of the meeting , and swore in persons who were giving testimony at the public hearing . Commissioners present : Chairman Sheldon Mr. Goldspiel Mr. Krug Ms . Howard Mr. Braiman Mr. Charlette Mr. Rubin Mr. Rosenston Commissioners absent : Mr. Rhodes Also present : Mr. Bruce B. Bingham, Hamilton Partners Mr. Michael J . Rolfs , Hamilton Partners Mr. Stephen T. Wright . Loebl Schlossman Hackl Mr. Robert Gudmundson, Cowhey Gudmundson Leder Mr. 0. Wayne Chandler, Angus Chemical Company Mr. Frank Mattes III , Angus Chemical Company Dr. Robert L . Klein, Angus Chemical Company Mr. Dick Mallory, Theodore Brickman Company Lt . John Domar, Buffalo Grove Fire Department Mr. Dominic Saviano , Jr. , Deputy Fire Marshal Mr. William Raysa, Village Attorney Mr. Richard Kuenkler, Village Engineer Mr. Michael O ' Malley, Village Trustee Mr. Robert Pfeil , Village Planner The following exhibits were presented by the petitioner at the Public Hearing : Exhibit 1 : Preliminary Plan proposed in 1987 for five one story buildings �.. Buffalo Grove Plan Comm-Public Hearing-February 20 , 1991-Page 1 Exhibit 2 : Preliminary Plan dated October 12 , 1988 approved for three one story buildings Exhibit 3 : Overall site plan for Chevy Chase Business Park East dated January 7 , 1991 Exhibit 4 : Preliminary Plan dated February 5 , 1991 for Angus Chemical Company site Exhibit 5 : Building elevations dated February 6 and 8 , 1991 Exhibit 6 : Rendering of proposed Angus Chemical building Exhibit 7 : Preliminary Engineering Plan dated February 12 , 1991 Exhibit 8 : Conceptual Landscape Plan dated February 13 , 1991 Exhibit 9 : Perspective view of shade trees proposed for the Angus Chemical Company site Mr. Bingham stated he was requesting rezoning of Lot 1 and the 12 . 23 parcel east of Lot 1 from B-3 District to O&R District to better accommodate the uses of Angus Chemical Company. He presented Exhibit 1 showing the 16 . 82 acres to be rezoned from B-3 to O&R and stated the easterly section is being left without any zoning change until the Lake Cook Road expansion project is finalized and until Hamilton Partners has specific plans for the section. Mr. Rolfs stated the initial two story building will be 62 , 500 square feet with the potential to expand to 84 , 000 square feet if a need arises , although such a need is not projected for another 15 years . He stated the building would serve as both corporate headquarters and a research and development facility which he feels would be better served with the O&R zoning . Mr. Rolfs further stated that at present only approximately 20 percent of the use will be for research and development . However, if this should increase at some time in the future , it would not be considered an accessory use under B-3 zoning and O&R would be the best zoning under such circumstances. Mr. Rolfs reviewed the architectural site plan which shows a two story building with possible expansion of 10 , 800 square feet on each side of the building . He stated the parking had been improved slightly to make it more symmetrical to the building and that there would be enough parking available for Angus ' needs as well as sufficient area for any future parking requirements. Mr. Wright reviewed a rendering of the building which showed the building has been raised slightly above eye level when viewed from a �.. Buffalo Grove Plan Comm-Public Hearing-February 20, 1991-Page 2 passing car. In order to make the length and mass of the building more attractive, the two ends of the building have been gabled which helps to scale down the length of the building . Commissioner Braiman asked if this rendering included the future expanded area and if not, would the featured gables be kept as they appear on the rendering. Mr. Wright stated this rendering does not include the expanded area. When an expansion becomes necessary they would have to revise the plans at that time and they would be required to present the expansion plans to both the Plan Commission and the Appearance Commission again. Mr. Pfeil stated that a P.U.D. ordinance could request that Angus come back at the time of adding an addition. Mr. Goldspiel stated that the landbanking of the parking area may also be another reason for Angus to return to the Plan Commission for approval of any future construction. Mr. Pfeil stated that the ultimate site plan shows that Angus would have adequate parking for any future expansion. Therefore , if all of the area is not ultimately used for parking there needs to be some variation to allow Angus to landbank rather than build more parking spaces. Mr. Pfeil stated that the P. U. D. needed to be structured so that it would allow Angus to landbank instead of pave the area and that there needs to be some form of review process to verify that the parking is still adequate to meet all requirements . Chairman Sheldon inquired if the northern exposure of the building was identical to the front side of the building and if the pond situated on the north end of the building goes the entire length of the building. Mr. Wright stated the back of the building .was identical to the front with a slightly deeper projection of the gable at the rear of the building. The pond goes the entire length of the building and beyond. Mr. Wright further stated the final color of the brick had not yet been chosen but it would be in the earth tone colors . Chairman Sheldon commented that the driveway looks a little crowded and might be a problem with respect to any future public transportation. Mr. Bingham stated the circulation road would be built as needed, stopping at the edge of the current parking area. The turnaround area contains only some of the handicapped and guest parking spaces. Buffalo Grove Plan Comm-Public Hearing-February 20, 1991-Page 3 He further stated they have not provided any sidewalk from Lake Cook Road into the project in the conviction that no bus would stop on Lake Cook Road and drop people off. They feel that a bus would come into the park and drop people off much as they do in other business parks . Commissioner Goldspiel commented that was a bad assumption. A brief discussion was held regarding public transportation and whether pedestrians would be dropped off on Lake Cook Road or inside the business parkway. Commissioner Goldspiel stated it was necessary to have a sidewalk perpendicular to the proposed 8 foot walk already shown on the plan in order to provide pedestrian access to the site. Mr. Gudmundson reviewed the engineering aspect of the facility. He stated that many of the utilities had been installed previously with the construction of the first building and the Riverwalk building. He stated that there already exists a 12 inch water main and an 8 inch sanitary sewer line. The plan therefore calls for a straight line sanitary and water connection as well as fire hydrants appropriately spaced to protect the building. Mr. Gudmundson also stated that the grading of Lake Cook Road is approximately 1 foot above the proposed building. Therefore, as you exit Lake Cook Road into the building site, the road will drop away and rise up again at the drop off zone at the front of the building. The road will continue to drop off to the east and west toward the parking lots , causing no problems for the building. The building will be at a 648 elevation which is 5 feet above the flood plain. In order to provide the necessary detention and compensatory storage requirements, they will be enlarging the pond on the east side of the building especially since they now have a good idea of what will be necessary with respect to the Lake Cook Road expansion. Mr. Gudmundson stated that they will be providing a total of 31 acre feet of compensatory detention storage which will fulfill all of the requirements for the Chevy Chase East development of this site as well as any future development on the eastern lots . Mr. Gudmundson addressed the requested variations . He stated that the first variation dealt with the modification of the conceptual grading plan being provided. He stated the final grading plan will be provided within several weeks along with the final engineering plans . He stated that he feels they have presented concrete information that this plan is a workable plan. He also stated that the plan had been previously submitted to the Village with the Buffalo Grove Plan Comm-Public Hearing-February 20, 1991-Page 4 exception of the pond enlargement which is now included since they have been able to determine the needs of the site with respect to the Lake Cook Road expansion project. Mr. Gudmundson also stated that the variations were consistent with those originally asked for and granted by the Village in its original approval . Mr. Gudmundson stated that the second variation concerns the retention pond itself . He noted that they were asking for a reduction in the depth from 15 feet to 12 feet and a variation on the shoreline construction. Mr. Gudmundson stated he feels they have had good success with a 12 foot depth and since this is a sizable pond, there should be no problems. Commissioner Goldspiel asked why Angus was requesting a variation in depth for the pond and if there was not also a request for a variation on aeration. Mr. Gudmundson replied that the 12 foot depth would be sufficient and that they would prefer not to dispose of excess material from the pond if it was not necessary. Mr. Gudmundson also said the aeration variation is being requested because they feel there is excellent water turnover throughout the system and there is no concern about the pond going stagnant . Chairman Sheldon asked what happens to the sidewalk and bikepath in relation to the box culvert which connects the easterly pond to the existing pond. Mr. Gudmundson replied that both the sidewalk and bikepath will go over the box culvert . He stated that the sidewalk and street lighting on Lake Cook Road would be deferred until after the Lake Cook Road widening, as this would be in the way of the Lake Cook Road improvement project. Commissioner Braiman asked if the overpass improvement on Milwaukee Avenue and Lake Cook Road had definitely been approved. Mr. Gudmundson replied that the County' s design consultants had been authorized to proceed with their working drawings . Mr. Braiman asked what happens to the deferred improvements to the Angus site if the overpass does not get done for any reason and expressed his concern that these improvements be constructed. Mr. Kuenkler replied that a bond has been posted and would be retained until the improvements are completed. Chairman Sheldon noted that this area historically has had a water Buffalo Grove Plan Comm-Public Hearing-February 20, 1991-Page 5 problem and asked what impact construction of this site would have on the existing water problems . Mr. Gudmundson stated that they are providing 31 acre feet of combined detention and compensatory storage for this development which i-s a tremendous amount of storage. He stated that this area is on a flood plain, but that the area will be provided with sufficient detention and compensatory storage to keep the area free from any water problems . Mr. Goldspiel inquired if the Army Corps of Engineers was in any way involved with this project . Mr. Gudmundson replied that the Army Corps of Engineers was not involved in this project and additionally, that there were no wetlands on this site . Mr. Mallory reviewed the landscape plan for the Angus project and noted that they planned to use a combination of large shade trees, flowering shrubs , evergreens , ground cover and berms for this site. He noted that the entrance to the site would have berms on either side covered by shade trees and shrubbery. There will also be upward sloped grading on either side of the parking lots so that the parking areas will be hidden. There will also be large shade trees planted in front of the building as well as on the center island. Mr. Mallory stated he proposes earth berms on the landbanked parking area with shade trees to break up the monotony of such a large expanse. The rear of the building will have terraces on either side of the dining area overlooking the golf course and the back elevation is to be broken up with shade trees and evergreens. The treatment of the loading docks is to be handled with a large earth berm covered with shade trees , evergreens and shrubbery. Chairman Sheldon suggested that low level lighting leading to the parking area might be helpful with such dense planting and berming. Commissioner Krug asked how high the berms at the entrance of the building would be and if they might be hazardous if too large. Mr. Mallory replied that they will make sure that the berms are low enough to maintain a line of sight . Mr. Chandler spoke briefly of Angus ' history and the type of products and services handled by Angus Chemical Company. Dr. Klein summed up the technical center' s operations which consist of applications research, synthesis of variations of new products and analytical support . He stated that overall the company works with a �.. Buffalo Grove Plan Comm-Public Hearing-February 20, 1991-Page 6 very small scale of material , resulting in no emissions. Any materials that are generated are removed by a licensed waste ...� management company and all other trash would be internally housed. Commissioner Charlette inquired about the possibility of the materials spilling over into the sewer line . Dr. Klein stated the building was designed to minimize that possibility and in addition the small amount of materials used would not present any environmental problems . The materials used are not toxic in nature and indeed Angus Chemical Company is in the business of researching ways to remove toxic materials from many products. Commissioner Krug inquired if the materials used by Angus were in the nature of petrochemicals , enzymes or bacteria. Dr. Klein stated the only bacteria used was that commonly found in the environment which was used in the testing of their products . Chairman Sheldon asked what provision or staff was available to the Village to monitor such a facility. Mr. Pfeil stated he believed health inspections were required on a quarterly basis and the fire department was here to address their concerns. �.. Mr. Saviano, Deputy Fire Marshal , stated there would be fire inspections held twice a year. If more inspections were required, the inspections would be increased. Lt . Domar, Hazardous Materials Officer, stated he had received only positive comments from the Northbrook community regarding Angus . He stated the company was extremely conscientious and would not present any problems to the community or other tenants around their facility. Mr. Rosenston stated he would like the question of lot lines and inclusion of the pond in the O&R District discussed. Mr. Bingham stated they included only the number of acres in this site for O&R zoning since they would prefer to maintain as much property as possible in B-3 designation which they perceive as more favorable and flexible. Mr. Raysa noted that the lot line was further west than that shown on the exhibit. Mr. Bingham explained that Angus Chemical Company was only leasing up to the first line shown on the exhibit but that the property line �.. Buffalo Grove Plan Comm-Public Hearing-February 20, 1991-Page 7 actually extends slightly further east. The area between that lease line and the property line is owned by Hamilton Partners. Commissioner Rosenston stated that the property line is therefore in reality a lease control line and has nothing to do with the development . Commissioner Goldspiel expressed concern with the configuration of the main entrance and the drop off area with regard to the radius of the curves and the uncontrolled asphalt area leading to possible traffic accidents . Mr. Gudmundson stated the entrance off Lake Cook Road is exactly what the County wants to give them. It allows for two lanes coming in and two lanes going out . In addition, it should be noted that there is very little guest parking in this area. Mr. Gudmundson further stated that it might be possible to move the center island slightly northward, although the turn radii were designed to accommodate emergency vehicles and buses and would be sufficient. Commissioner Goldspiel expressed his concern that an extension of the access driveway to the easterly lots be constructed. Mr. Bingham stated the extension of the driveway to the future development was absolutely necessary in order to provide access to Northgate Parkway which is a signalized intersection. He stated all future buildings must have this access driveway and that the construction of the driveway was the developer' s responsibility. Mr. Pfeil stated that the P.U.D. contains language to cover the maintenance responsibilities . Mr. Raysa affirmed that such language exists in the original P.U. D. Commissioner Goldspiel said that this matter just needs to be spelled out more appropriately. Commissioner Goldspiel inquired if there were any comments from the Village traffic consultant. Mr. Pfeil stated that unfortunately there was no traffic report as yet from Mr. Carmignani . Commissioner Charlette asked if there were any emergency exits or any other exits besides the front door. Mr. Wright stated there were exits at the rear patio area as well as doors by the dock area. Commissioner Braiman asked if the deceleration lane is in addition to `.. Buffalo Grove Plan Comm-Public Hearing-February 20, 1991-Page 8 the third lane of traffic and if there was enough room for all of them. Mr. Gudmundson affirmed that the deceleration lane was in addition to the third lane of traffic and that there was sufficient room for all lanes. Commissioner Braiman asked for an explanation of the weir in the retention pond. Mr. Gudmundson said the weir was approved as part of the 1988 P.U.D. , but it has not yet been constructed because the developer is waiting for the final design of the Lake Cook Road improvements by Cook County. He said the Angus site plan does not change the approved weir design. Commissioner Goldspiel asked if the recommendations contained in the staff memo of February 15 , 1991 pertaining to the bikepath improvements could be addressed. Mr. Kuenkler stated the memo refers to the extension of the bikepath system from the Chevy Chase property up to the clubhouse at the golf course. The suggestion is that the property rights and right-of-ways for the area be determined appropriately. Commissioner Goldspiel stated the pedestrian access from the sidewalk `.. on Lake Cook Road into the building needs to be addressed. Chairman Sheldon inquired how much of a delay had been caused to the development of this project by the proposed Lake Cook Road construction. Mr. Bingham replied that the development had been delayed not only by the proposed Lake Cook Road construction but by market conditions. Mr. Braiman asked how long. it would take to construct this project. Mr. Bingham replied it is scheduled to open in June , 1992 . There being no further comments, Chairman Sheldon closed the Public Hearing at 9: 20 p.m. ...

CONDELI; MEDICAL CENTER, IMMEDIATE CARE FACILITY AND MEDICAL OFFICES, Lot 2 Woodland Commons Commerce Center - Rezoning from the Industrial District to the B-3 or O&R District and Preliminary Plan Chairman Sheldon noted the fax from the Condell Medical Center requesting a delay in the public hearing scheduled for February 20 , 1991 and asked what was the basis for this delay. Mr. Pfeil stated that Condell and Northwestern Savings and Loan were still in disagreement amongst themselves as to the type of zoning to be requested. Chairman Sheldon asked how Condell Medical Center would fit into an Industrial District. Discussion then ensued on the uses for Industrial zoning and O&R zoning and how Condell might fit into each type of zoning. Chairman Sheldon suggested that Mr. Pfeil have the Director of Zoning give the Plan Commission his interpretation of how Condell might fit into Industrial zoning. Chairman Sheldon further noted that Condell ' s request to be out on the agenda for March 6 , 1991 was difficult to honor and the Plan Commission would try to get Condell on the agenda as soon as possible. BUFFALO GROVE TOWN CENTER - FINAL PLAT , UNIT 5 POST OFFICE Mr. Raysa reviewed the memorandum regarding the post office agreement and option to purchase land for the post office. He stated that the option to purchase is not as yet final , however, negotiations have started in earnest with the post office. To date the option agreement has been set down in black and white, but the legal descriptions have not been set down . Mr. Raysa stated the next step in the negotiation process was to call down a title commitment policy and for that a plat of subdivision was necessary. He stated he was here requesting approval for that plat of subdivision. Mr. Raysa further stated that he is aware that the Plan Commission does not like to do things in this manner, but that time constraints regarding the recent post office negotiations required he make this request. Commissioner Goldspiel objected to the procedure for this project, Buffalo Grove Plan Comm-Regular Meeting-February 20, 1991-Page 4 stating that the state statute clearly states that the Plan Commission is directly responsible for plats. He noted that this v, plat was very complex and needed to be examined in detail . Commissioner Goldspiel further stated that the Plan Commission would not be performing its statutory duty if it did not go over the plans carefully. Chairman Sheldon requested Mr. Kuenkler to review the plat for the Commission , and she asked for verification that Mr. Kuenkler has thoroughly reviewed the plat and recommends approval . Mr . Kuenkler reviewed his memo dated February 20, 1991 noting that the acreage figure in the surveyor's certificate needs to be corrected and there are several typographical errors on the plat that need to be corrected. Mr. Kuenkler stated that he recommends approval of the plat as corrected. Mr. Raysa noted that the plat does not have an easement for the bikepath planned on the north and west side of the post office site. He stated that the Postal Service has expressed concern about having a bikepath on their site for liability reasons. Mr. Raysa reviewed the site plan for the Post Office indicating the location of the bikepath and its connection to the Village Rotary Green . Mr. Raysa also noted that a sign parcel is indicated on the plat but this parcel is actually part of Lot 3 of Town Center. He commented that Lot 4 has two notches indicating public access easements that are needed to provide access to Checker Road for the Post Office. Chairman Sheldon inquired why action on the plat is needed at this time. Mr. Raysa said the Village Board wants to act on the plat at their March 4th meeting when other documents concerning the Post Office project will be ready for approval . Mr. Pfeil noted that the Plan Commission does not meet after tonight until March 6 , 1991 so the Commission 's recommendation is needed tonight in order for the plat to be placed on the Board's March 4th agenda. Commissioner Goldspiel inquired why Lots 1 and 2 are on this plat, and he asked if the plat should show a building setback line from Checker Road . Mr. Raysa indicated that Lots 1 and 2 are being re-subdivided to provide access to Lot 4. Mr. Pfeil noted that a 25 foot building setback line was required on ...� Buffalo Grove Plan Comm-Regular Meeting-February 20, 1991-Page 5 the plat for the Michael Reese facility in Town Center. Commissioner Goldspiel noted that due to the length of the foregoing discussion, he had now had adequate time to review the plat. Chairman Sheldon asked for a motion for approval of a plat of subdivision. • Moved by Commissioner Rosenston, seconded by Commissioner Krug that L/ the Plan Commission recommend approval of a plat of subdivision for Buffalo Grove Town Center, Unit 5, dated February 19 , 1991 subject to addition of a 25 foot building setback line along Checker Road and correction of typographical errors and other labeling errors as noted in the Village Engineer's memo of February 20, 1991 and as annotated by Commissioner Braiman on the plat. Chairman Sheldon asked for a vote on the motion and the vote was as follows: AYES: Goldspiel , Krug, Howard, Braiman, Charlette, Rubin, Rosenston NAYES: None ABSTAIN: None ABSENT: Rhodes The motion carried 7 to 0. CHAIRMAN'S REPORT Chairman Sheldon noted that the Village Manager has requested that the Plan Commission schedule a Public Hearing concerning the Phase II retail area of Town Center for March 6th. Chairman Sheldon noted that the reasons for this request are discussed in Mr. Balling's memo of February 20, 1991 . Chairman Sheldon said she would poll the Plan Commission concerning this request, but she expressed concern as to whether there is really a time constraint for the project as serious as the developer is indicating. Commissioner Goldspiel commented that he want information concerning the parking demand for discount stores and supermarkets as part of the information to be provided if the project is scheduled for Public Hearing. The polling was as follows, "yes" indicating agreement that the project could be scheduled for Public Hearing on March 6, 1991 : Buffalo Grove Plan Comm-Regular Meeting-February 20, 1991-Page 6 • AYES: Goldspiel , .Krug, Howard, Braiman, Charlette, Rubin, Rosenston .... NAYES: None ABSTAIN: None ABSENT: Rhodes Commissioner Braiman requested that the Village traffic consultant's report for Town Center be available for inclusion in the regular packet so that the Commission would have time to review the report, and he suggested that the traffic consultant attend the Public Hearing. FUTURE AGENDA Mr. Pfeil said there was no meeting scheduled for February 27 , 1991 . He stated there was a Public Hearing scheduled for March 6, 1991 for Town Center, Phase II . PUBLIC COMMENTS AND QUESTIONS - None STAFF REPORT - None ADJOURNMENT Moved by Commissioner Rosenston, seconded by Commissioner Rubin, and unanimously carried, to adjourn.
