Also Item 12 on the agenda - Robert Graham Discussion moved up in place of Item 8 (DesPlaines Street Parking Ordinance) which was tabled to Workshop. Mr. Robert Graham spoke in reference to the property west of Pheasant Chase that they own to be developed. The only request they are making. is that the ordinance (purposed zoning ordinance) not apply to the development of the balance of their property, west of Pheasant Chase. The Preliminary Plat was filed with the Flan Commission at a Public Hearing in August, 1987. It was the consensus at that time that the front-end (Pheasant Chase) should be completed before we started on the next unit (Lakeside Manor Subdivision), therefore, we did not proceed with Lakeside Manor. The Final Plat will be scheduled at the Public Hearing in front of the Plan Commission February 2, 19$8. They are requesting they be exempt from the purposed zoning ordinance. They feel they should be allowed to develop the property in accordance with the ordinance that is now in effect. The Lots are 10,000 square feet. The original lots in Pheasant Chase were 8,500 square feet. At present, we have 82 lots at 10,000 square feet. Previous, there were 97 lots at 8,500 square feet; house size - 1,300 square feet, from 700 square feet (single story) and multi-level from 1,000 square feet to 1,700 square feet; frontage from 60' to 75'/80'.

He stated the Village Engineer, John DJerf, wrote a letter of recommendation relative to the improvement plans and also have established a bond/letter of credit in the amount of $363,000.00. Also, your Plan Commission has recommended the approval of Indian Oaks Unit III. Planner D. Fagan stated they are also required to get an easement between lots #150 and #20. Mr. Yunker stated Mr. Sharp is in the process of getting that easement from property owners. Tn reference to the sanitary sewers from this development to Indian Boundry Road, the pipe will be 12" diameter and is so sized to allow gravity flow through future units to existing sanitary sewer. Where sewer depths are shallow (less than 8') that direct basement connections not be allowed. Each home affected (approximately 20) either will • not have full basements or basement drains will be by pump or ejection. D. Gullicksen stated he would like H. Countryman and the plumbing inspector to check aver these plans for the future. K.

Action Requested - Rezoning from Residence A and Business District 2 to Business District 4; Location - East side of Route 59 between Lockport and Chicago Streets; Applicants - James K. Chobar Trust and Oreel Management Group, Inc.; Surrounding Land Use -- Commercial, Residential and Public Facilities (Elementary School). There were two (2) Public Hearings held on the .case. Findings Of Facts - The proposed rezoning is not in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan of the Village of Plainfield. Commercial zoning is only recommended for the existing property zoned commercial. The remainder is classified as historic single-family with a recommendation to preserve the current scale and appearance of development. Commercial rezonings to allow expansion of the existing commercial district are recommended but not on the east side of Division Street. The plan stated, "all multiple family and non-residential rezonings shall be permitted only when the existing historical residential character of the area is maintained". A suggested revision to the building design was made to assist the petitioner in preparing a revised proposal but the original design was not changed. PLAINFIELD VILLAGE BOARD OF TRUSTEES JANUARY 18, 1988 PAGE FOUR The higher commercial use detracts from the historical residential character of the area. The proposed development joins two sites separated by a public alley. The higher traffic volume will result in use of the alley as a minor street. The alley is not suitable for such use. The B-4 use will also require that an .exit be main- tained on Lockport Street. The additional traffic exiting the site will present increased problems for Central School. Recommend- ation - The Plan Commission recommended denial of the rezoning. Jahn Starrit was in attendance representing Oree1 Management Group, Inc. After much much discussion for and against the rezoning of this parcel. It was the consensus of the Board to deny. J. Dement moved. to concurr with the Plan Commission recommendation to deny the rezoning of property east side of Route 59 between Lockport and Chicago Streets (Hardee's). Seconded by J. Boatz. Vote by roll call. Callanan, yes; Dement, yes; Bootz, yes; Lewin, yes; Kelly, yes; Gullicksen, yes. 6 yes, 0 no. Motion carried. L.

However, we have been notified that Hindsdale Farms are interested. They would have 4 employees and would be a distributor of meats with 4 trucks. L. Kelly reported Alpha Omega/Bethesda Lutheran Home will be at the Plan Commission tomorrow evening (1/19/88) for rezoning of property on Eastern Avenue for Developmental Disabled Home.
