and A-3. This property consists of 88.81 acre site, Lily Cache

the east boundary. The proposal is to develop this site into 210
residential lots comprised of: 147 single-family lots, 44 duplex
lots, and 19 multi-family lots with 4 units per building. The
variation they are requesting is for lot width requirements for
single-family from the required 85' frontage to 77'; majority of
lots would be 10,000 sq. ft. where 12,000 sq. ft. is required,
average lot area is over 13,000 sq. ft. far single-family lots.
Access to the property would be Spangler Road. The Park District
has tentatively accepted the Park Sites and has shown interest in
park area used along the creek. The Preliminary Plat Public
Hearing will be in front of the Flan Commission on March 5, 1991
for this subdivision. J. Dement expressed some concern in
reference to lowering front footage from 85' to 77'; creating
more traffic from 164 multi-family units. Also, if they will
provide enough parking for these multi-family units. Mr. Len
Crozzi, one of the owners of the propert, introduced Bi11 Tezak,
Ray Apple, Ed Maddox and George Barr, Attorney. All are involved
with Mr. & Mrs Ralph Drum. Mr. Crozzi explained their concept of
this development. He quoted the average price for single-family
home at $150,000, duplex $115,000 and four unit $100,000.

PAGE TWO
There were several residents from the area who spoke stating
their concerns - Jay Johnston, Charlotte Lane, Franklin Hights;
Kevin Lane, corner of Spangler and Charlotte; Sandy Bennett, Ivy
Lane; Robert Matykiewioz, west side of Lily Cache Creek; Donna
Nemanich, Lorraine Avenue; Len Mikus, adjacent property owner on
Lily Cache Road. Mayor Latta questioned if there is any problem
with the Village adding to the agreement that the multi-family
units must be sold? Ed Maddox from Kipling Development stated he
wouldn't like to have additional requirements added such as "sold
only". It was the consensus of the Board that the following
would be changed in the Annexation Agreement: #S. Unit Plattin
- the intent is to have four (4) phases; #6. Water & Sewer
Service - to be removed; #7. Performance B Villa e - remove last
sentence; #8. Other Fees - to be removed. There was some
discussion at the Plan Commission which had recommended to the
Board that lots (on previous plat lots 58, 59, 60 & 61), but now
on the updated. plan lots #79,80,81 & 82 would be single-family
instead of duplex housing. The Board had no problem with the
duplex housing. It was the consensus that there should be
caution in tree preservation and the developers agreed.
It was the consensus that this Annexation Agreement will come
back to the Village Board March 11, 1991.
J. Gaylord moved to adjourn the Public Hearing. Seconded by L.
