At 7:30 p.m. Mayor Latta opened the Public Hearing.
Roll call was taken, D. Lewin was absent.
Planner Waldock reported on the Chaplin Family Farm which is a 60
acre site located at the northwest corner of 135th Street and
Route 59. The purpose far this Public Hearing is for the
surrounding property owners to be heard and comments from the
Board. The Plan Commission has not, at this point, had the
opportunity to review this case. We are still waiting for more
information. The 60 acre parcel of which approximately 40 acres
would be used for single-family residential, 20 acre section at
the corner would be used for commercial development with 6
perimeter lots to be divided and used as individual commercial
sites. The project would be served with Village sewer and water,
recapture agreements are purposed. The proposed zoning is B-3
(Business zoning) for the commercial area, with Residence A over
the remaining portion of the site. The means of acquiring
contiguity is through an annexation of 300 feet of two (2)
adjoining farms. Attorney Selfridge stated its the south 300
feet of the Pilcher Farm and the south 300 feet of the Bronk
Farm. Wally Daum, from the Wheatland Township Board of Trustees,
requested of Attorney Selfridge that they make a presentation to
the Wheatland Township Board, as this property is located in
Wheatland Township. Attorney Selfridge stated that he or a
representative will give a presentation at the Wheatland Township
meeting on May 2, 19$9. There was some discussion on the Concept
Plan and the overall design of the development. Attorney Harvey
stated the Board has to look at it first as a concept if the
Board is going to look for recapture as to utilities and road
improvements. How much will be done is the question. When we
receive the data, meaning dollar amounts, this could have an
impact on future developments. Mayor Latta stated, we do need
• dollar amounts to proceed. Mr. Peterson, adjacent land owner

(north of parcel), questioned if these plans are final. Attorney
Selfridge stated there are two (2) stages; preliminary site plan
approval, then the engineers will draw road design, storm water
detention, then the Village engineer will give recommendations to
the Village Board. Mr. Peterson stated he would like to have
something added to the Annexation Agreement. In regard to the
retention pond, there are two (2) major tiles running through the
Chaplin Farm, therefore, he (Mr. Peterson) stated he would like
the following added into the Agreement: Owners of the land agree
that in the installation of all of the improvements described
herein on said real estate, they will fully and completely
protect and not block, and preserve all existing drain tiles
located in the described premises known as Village Green Estates.
Attorney Selfridge stated it is the law; the developer will have
to accommodate and preserve (the run of the tile). Ken Lyles,
representative of Wheatland Township Plan Commission questioned
if there is any projection on the price of the homes in this
development? Attorney Selfridge stated this is an estimate; the
commercial, in the area of $6,000,000; residential will be
approximately $150,000 to $200,000.
Flanner Waldock spoke in reference to the Sehring/Harshbarger
property located along U.S. Route 30, Renwick Road to the north
and McClellan Avenue to the east. It is a vacant 24 acre parcel
and is part of the Route 30 annexation area and will be annexed
to the Village on April 20, 1989. There is no specific
development proposal at this time. There is a mixed zoning
proposed, B-4 along Route 30 at a depth of 460', with the
remainder B-3. This will result in about 10 acres of B-4
(Highway Business) and 14 acres of B-3 (Commercial zoning). In
reference to the Annexation Agreement, page 4, article 5,
paragraph B; remove the second line "existing buildings,
structures and signs" and insert B. Maintain and continue to use
the subject site for agricultural purpose until developed; page
5, paragraph C; remove in its entirety; page 6, paragraph B,
remove in its entirety; page 6, article 7, second to the last
line - reference water/sewer lines along south boundary - should
refer to Route 30; page 6, last paragraph, the zoning to be
established by Board at a future date; eliminate free stubs; ,page
7, remove last 2 sentences; the sentence relating to cost
figures, remove not exceed and add approximately $.2,160 per acre
far a total not to exceed $6,500; paragraphs 1 & 2, extension of
laterals (stubs) should be removed; page 8, we recommend the
addition of E. Utility Easements: Owners shall grant adequate
easements and right-of-way for all public improvements and
utilities, including Cable T.V.. Staff's recommendation is that
there also be allowed; curb cuts or a road access on McClellan
• Avenue and a cul-de-sac be extended to service .the interior from

Renwick Road at a distance that is acceptable for safety from the
intersection. Ione Mueller, resident of Lily Cache Subdivision,
stated in the Village's Comprehensive Plan, it has this land as
residential and she feels this is the best use of this property.
B-3 zoning can bring undesirable businesses to the area. Planner
Waldock stated the Comprehensive Plan stated moderate density,
townhouses no more than six (6) units per building. James
Demonus, resident of Lily Cache Subdivision, stated why not leave
it residential now and then if ,they want to change the zoning,
come back for a change later. Mayor Latta stated with an
annexation agreement, we address the zoning at that time. Mrs.
Gabor, resident, stated no one here wants multi-family, single-
family homes would be fine. Charles Lesick, resident, stated he
and neighbors do not want commercial zoning, and McClellan Avenue
is not a street to take commercial traffic. Ione Mueller stated
a B-3 zoning would not help the proposed Forest Preserve area at
Lake Renwick. Mayor Latta questioned if this property must be
acted upon tonight because this parcel was included in the Route
30 Annexation. Attorney Harvey stated as of .April 20, 1989, it
will be in the Village and if not zoned, it will come in as
Residence A. There was more discussion on the B-3 zoning on
McClellan Avenue, commercial vs. townhouses. J. Bootz stated he
feels the best use is B-4 on Route 30 and B-3 fronting McClellan
and D. Gullicksen agreed. J. Dement stated he would want it
specified, no accesses/entrances to McClellan Avenue.
Planner waldock spoke in reference to Kelly Automotive, properly
located on Route 30, part of the annexation area. The actual
property owner is William Conroy. The Annexation Agreement
(proposed) recognized the existing land uses and allows far their
continuance. It also provides for the establishment of B-4
zoning on the site. It calls for waiver of sewer and .water Cap-
on fees, also it specifies two (2) years for sewer/water
extension to the site.
Planner Waldock spoke in reference to the Panogiotaros property.
The property is north of the Route 30 annexation. This property
has a vacant restaurant (previously Dino's) and the northern
portion of the property had a rental house which the Fire
District burned as part of their training process. We are not
requiring action from the Board tonight. We are satisfying
statutory requirements at this Public Hearing. The Annexation
Agreement specifies that B-3 zoning is established for a future
use of a new restaurant on the site after the existing structure
is demolished and removed. They are requesting recapture of
sewer/water. extensions to serve the site. A liquor license would
be requested after annexation. The development will be subject
• to site plan review. The water would be extended from Robert

Avenue to Route 30. Sewer can be provided from Route 30, but a
private lift station would be needed due to the elevation. The
developers, George Panogiotaros and Gus Pappas, were in
attendance. There were some questions on the agreement. Tt was
agreed mare work must be done on the document.
Planner Waldock spoke in reference to Lily .Cache Plaza. This
property is located at the corner of Lily Cache Road and Route
30. This parcel is not part of the Route 30 annexation but is
adjacent to the annexed area. This is a voluntary annexation.
They are requesting a B-4 zoning with a one (1) year time frame
for water/sewer extension (pg. 5, article 7). This should be
changed to two (2) years to be consistent with the other
agreements on Route 30. Also, the second to last sentence should
read "if sewer and water are not available in two years from the
date of .annexation, the owners shall have the right to disconnect
the subject property in accordance with .the law". Mayor Latta
requested this agreement be rewritten with corrections.
Planner Waldock spoke in reference to Parks Bras. I. This
property is a vacant 5 acre parcel on the west side of Route 59,
south of Fart Beggs Drive (previously Plaza Drive). Parks II is
the existing Parks Bros. Store on the east side of Route 59,
north of Robert Avenue. This Public Hearing is to satisfy
statutory requirements. The requested zoning is B-3, commercial,
far both properties. Changes on the Annexation Agreements -
Parks I, page 3, last paragraph, changes in the water and sewer
lines, change in the street name from Plaza Drive to Fort Beggs
Drive, page 6, item 13, remove in its entirety. Parks II, page
6, item 12, remove in its entirety. Attorney Selfridge stated
the Parks' are granting, as part of the Annexation Agreement, an
easement for the purpose of extending a water line. Mayor Latta
stated the Village will pay for the survey of the easements, but
the survey of the entire property is the responsibility of the
property owner that wishes to annex to the Village. After some
discussion, it was agreed by the Board to pay for the survey of
the entire properties on both Parks I and IT and enter it back
.into the Annexation Agreements.

Planner Waldock spoke in reference to the Jacobs property.
Attorney David Silverman, representing Jacobs Auto Dealer, was in
attendance. This property will be annexed on April 20, 1989 as a
part of the Route 3Q Annexation. The proposed zoning is B-4 to
allow the continuing use as an Automobile Dealership. Waiver of
three (3) tap-ons is in the agreement. 'The changes; page 1, it
lists Village of Plainfield as owner of the property - should be
"hereinafter should be referred to as Plainfield" rather than

owners, then add the property owners name as owners; page 5,
seven lines above paragraph B, omit; page 6, article 7, paragraph
1, lateral and connections .should be removed by omitting the
paragraph and the beginning of page 7. The developer has
requested any future additional sales tax be waived; article 10,
the owners name should be installed; General Provisions, a
uti],ity easement must be added; item F, article 8, should read
"sales tax - in the event Plainfield, through action of the State
of Illinois, becomes eligible to assess Municipal Sales Tax, such
additional sales tax shall not be applicable to business of
subject site for the term of this agreement. After much mare
discussion, it was the consensus of the Board not to allow an
abatement for any future Municipal Sa],.es Tax.
