At 7:15 p.m. President Peterson opened the Public Hearing.
• Roll call was taken, J. Ray was absent.
Planner Waldock spoke in reference to Lakelands Annexation
Agreement Amendment. The Lakelands Corp. seeks to expand the
authorized housing types in their subdivision. The developers are
proposing to include duplex dwellings along with cluster homes.
The range in price of two units start at $275,000 - $350,000 per
unit, per side. No public comments were made.
Planner Waldock spoke in reference to Case No. 373-111892.AA
At~plicant:. Material Service Corporation. Location: Along the
north side of Route 126, south of 135th Street, along 224th Street
(Essington Road). Request :_ Annexation and Establishment of 5 acres
of B-4, Highway Business zoning and 38.233 acres of. Residential A-
4, Multi Family zoning on a 43.233 acre parcel. The agreement
allows accommodation of current uses of the subject site, continued
use of the present structures, new construction shall meet all
Village building codes. The agreement recognizes proposed
stormwater management regulations and soil and erosion control
regulations. Street improvements to Essington Road are regulated
by the Annexation Agreement. It provides for the waiver of
Annexation fees and Rezoning fees associated with the acreage
involved. Staff has no objection to this request in that Material
Service was asked by the Village to consider annexation to
accommodate contiguity for the TOPE site. The Plan Commission
recommends approval of the Annexation Agreement with stipulations:
Amend the agreement draft to provide no less than two years for the

extension of sewer and water utilities to the subject site. Tf this
time frame is exceeded, the agreement provides the owner with the
right to extend the sewer and water at the Villages expense.
Staff feels that additional time may be necessary to assure proper
extension of utilities through the area by TOPE Corporation.
J. Dement stated his concern for Village liability for utilities if
the TOPE Development does not go through.
R. Selfridge, Attorney for TOPE stated that they are a week or two
away from having a Final Plat of Subdivision for Phase I. At that
point we call upon the Developer to post a Letter of Credit for the
installation of those lines. His suggestion is to hold off the
actual Village execution of the Material Service Agreement until
the TOPE Letter of Credit is posted.
The President of the Hickory Hills Rod and Gun Club was present and
stated his concerns in the placing of utilities, due to the fact
that mast of the land in the utility easement is under water. J.
Regis, Village Engineer addressed his concerns.
Planner Waldock spoke regarding Case No. 392-051093.AA. Ai~l~liCant:
Michael Guinta, Developer, Melvin Brawn Estate, Owner. Location:
West of Rt. 59 along the north side of Fraser Road in the northeast
quarter of Section 21 of Plainfield Township. Request:
Annexation, Rezoning, and Concept Plan Approval for Vintage Harvest
Subdivision. The Subdivision and Annexation of Vintage Harvest
Subdivision are in substantial compliance with Village standards
and requirements. The Annexation is a logical extension of Village
boundaries and land uses are consistent with those proposed or
existing on surrounding properties. The proposal will not be
injurious to property values in the area. The site is 72.7 acres
in area and the proposal is for l49 single family lots, 10 acres of
B-4 Highway Business District to be established along Rt. 59. The
covenants and restrictions of the subdivision include provisions
for one story dwellings of no less than 1,600 sq. ft. in area, bi-
level dwellings of no less than 1,800 sq. ft. and two story
dwellings of no less than 2,000 sq. ft. The concept plan includes
all 12,000 sq. ft. lots. The Plan Commission expressed concerns
regarding the profileration of vacant commercial property. Some
members felt that we have more commercial zoned land south of
Renwick than we can use now. They felt it was best to recommend B-
3 rather than B-4 zoning in this case. The other option they looked
at was 100 improvement of Fraser Road with the allowance of the
recapture from the landowner to the south at the time of
development. The cost recapture would be simply 50~ of the costs
for the public improvements as provided. Utility extension was
discussed. Village utility systems are available along Rt. 59.
Both sewer and water mains were extended as part of the Rt. 59
annexation program. The developer of Vintage Harvest will be

expected to cross Rt. 59 with the needed utility extensions
adequately sized to service his development. Provisions for
Village responsibility for oversizing casts should be negotiated
with the Village. The Plan Commission recommends approval of the
Annexation and Subdivision Concept Plan for Vintage Harvest
Subdivision subject to stipulations. Discussions were had
regarding civil defense contributions, potential Fraser Road bridge
fund, school contributions from the Developer. Dorothy Lewis and
Louis Bergan, who own property near development voiced their
concerns regarding the annexation of Fraser Road.
Trustee Lambert discussed the possibility of having a localized
impact fee for the extension of Drauden Road east and west of Rt.
59. Development that would occur along that line would contribute
to a fund that would help us fund a bridge. The fees that were
proposed were minimal, $'75.00 per residential site, $200.00 per
quarter acre commercial land. We need to let the developers know
ahead of time all the considerations that we will be looking at so
that they can put their projects together for this Board.
Michael Quinta, Developer, stated that with respect to fees
established, whatever number is established, that it be consistent
in any future development and it would make it easier for other
developers for their preliminary analysis process to be able to
make a decision as to whether or not Plainfield is the right
community to be in.
Trustee Dement stated that we would want to have a consistent
policy with everyone.
L. Kelly moved to adjourn the Public Hearing and reconvene to the
Regular Meeting. Seconded by J. Dement. Voice vote. 5 yes, 0 no.
Motion carried.
