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 PLAINFIELD VILLAGE BOARD OF TRUSTEES APRIL 17, 1989 PAGE TWO (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 PLAINFIELD VILLAGE BOARD OF TRUSTEES APRIL 17, 1989 PAGE THREE 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 PLAINFIELD VILLAGE BOARD OF TRUSTEES APRIL 17, 1989 PAGE FOUR 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. i• 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 PLAINFIELD VILLAGE BOARD OF TRUSTEES APRIL 17, 1989 PAGE FIVE 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.
