At the last Village Board meeting the Board agreed that the zoning from the property should ga from B-3 to B-5, but the Board was unable to agree on the question regarding the Preliminary Plat and the variances.

The Administrator has scheduled the meeting with the principals of Wallin Woods, but that meeting will not take place until after the preparation of this Agenda. 3) EXECUTIVE SESSION.

Darnell VILLAGE OF PLAINFIELD Jeffrey Dement Kathy O'Connell WILL COUNTY'S OLDEST COMMUNITY Steven L. Rathbun Raymond Smolich Kurt Stalzer Susan Janik VILLAGE CLERK To: Richard A. Rock, Village President Board of Trustees From: T. L. Burghard, Village Administrator Date: February 6, 1998 Subject: Wallin Woods Development Late on Thursday, February 5th., Jeff Durbin and Y met with the representatives of Wallin Woods and the Dreyer Medical Clinic. This meeting was in response to last Monday's Board meeting where a number of issues were outlined. The conclusion of our meeting on Thursday resulted in a letter from John Driscoll attached. In an effort to focus discussion and decision making at next Monday's Workshop, may we proceed with the following orientation: 1) Rezoning. The Village Board has clearly indicated its desire to permit B-5 zoning as long as notice and publication proceedings are satisfactory to the Village Attorney. At the present time, we will reschedule this for a Plan Commission meeting and this is apparently anon-issue on the part of the Board although the applicant is greatly frustrated about the recycling that continues about this matter. 2) Right of waX variance request. Initially, the applicant was seeking a variance fora 40 ft. right-of--way with a 37 ft. roadway. The application is now being changed to request a 60 ft. right-of--way with a 37 ft. roadway. Striping and turn lanes will be at the discretion of the Village since it is a public road and if the Village wants parallel parking it is free to do so. The only question is whether the Village will accept a 60 ft. right-of--way as opposed to an 80 ft. right-of--way. Frankly, a larger right-of--way reduces off street parking, has an effect on the eventual size of buildings and is not consistent with the theory that the new downtown should be an extension of the old downtown. 3) Buildin set back variances. These will be requested, if necessary, at the time of development of individual lots. 4) Lockport Street Bike path. The applicant has amended his plan and the meandering bike path has been eliminated and a straight sidewalk is proposed. 23145 W. LINCOLN HIGHWAY • PLAINFIELD, ILLINOIS 60544 • (815) 436-7093 • Fax (81 51 436-1 950 5) Variance for a sidewalk on the northside of the road. The applicant is removing this variance request and will install a sidewalk. This should no longer be an issue. The people from Dreyer Medical Clinic are fighting a precise time line and are now requesting that we consider preliminary site plan review at this time. Formal application for Site Plan Review will be concurrent with Final Plat submittal. They are fearful that further delays will produce new issues, recycle their plan one more time and their deadlines will be missed. They are requesting clarification of the following: 1) Landscape_Plans. Prior to their preparation offinal site plans they want to know how the individual board members feel about landscaping for the building. 2) Architectural Review. The applicant, Dreyer will present various alternate designs for the building and is looking for your view or issues so that they can prepare for final site plan submittal. These people have been working with us since August of last year and they do not have a clear idea of what we want. At our meeting on Thursday, Jeff and I were unable to articulate the needs of the Board because we don't know what you want either. Let's use this meeting to focus on the positives and be prepared to make decisions. cc J. Durbin Fire Chief Eichelberger Chief Bennett J.
