#8 PLAINFIELD COMMONS LOT 5
Mr. Jim Testin stated that this located at the southwest corner of 135th Street and Route
59 and it is supported by the Plan Commission. Banks, themselves, are not allowed
through the ordinance to either be a permitted use or a special use. We would be
amending the PUD, that is on that current commercial subdivision, to allow a bank on
that site. A lengthy discussion ensued. Trustee Collins stated he does feel the need for
another bank at 135th Street and Route 59, there are too many already. Administrator
Burghard stated the bank will not be located on the intersection, rather back into the
subdivision. Trustee Cherry stated it's the number of banks that concerns him. Mr.
Testin stated that in dealing with banks, there are certain criteria that you like to use
them, especially for architectural controls. Mr. Ron March, Developer, answered some
architectural questions.
Trustee Swalwell moved to direct the Village Attorney to draft an ordinance for a Special
Use Permit to amend the Planned Unit Development to allow a banking facility with a

#9 HIDDEN RIVER
Mr. Jim Testin stated this is special use for a PUD for Single-Family Residential
Subdivision with 129 lots located on the south side of Fraser Road, just south of River
Road. The Plan Commission and staff recommend approval. The Park District has not
identified this as a place that they would like to pick up the park, but it works ideally for
design. Mr. Jerry K., Superintendent for the Plainfield Township Park District, stated
that this plan has changed from the original and they have not made a decision, based
upon the latest plan. Mr. Martin, with JEN Land Design, stated that a Homeowner's
Association will take care of the park, if the park district doesn't want it. Trustee Collins
questioned the landscaping screening the current resident from the new development.
Ed Welch, Attorney for the Developer, stated they will be putting some in but its
residential to residential, both zoned the same, so landscaping would not normally be
provided. Mayor Rock stated this plan does not meet the side yard requirements of the
Village. Mr. Welch stated that because of the new, improved design of the subdivision,
Plainfield Village Board of Trustees
January 21, 2002
Page 4 of 6
it was imperative to reduce the size of the lots. There are approximately 15% of 129
lots are at 80 feet. Pat from Midwest Development stated there would not be two 80-
foot lots next to one another. John Martin stated that the straight subdivision plan meets
the Village requirements, but in order to be unique, they are requesting a PUD to gain
relief from the Village ordinances. The Annexation Agreement for this particular parcel
is for 150 lots. Trustee O'Connell asked for a list of lots that will be 80 feet. Trustee
Calabrese stated he does not like the fact that he does not know for sure what the park
district is going to do with the park. Details like this should be ironed out before it gets
to the board. Mr. Ed Welch stated that if the Park District does not want the park, he will
give them cash in lieu, and still develop this park as a neighborhood park.
Administrator Burghard stated that the Board is not approving this tonight. This is
simply requesting the Village Attorney to draft an ordinance for a Special Use Permit for
a Planned Unit Development.
Trustee Swalwell moved to direct the Village Attorney to draft an ordinance for a Special
Use Permit for a Planned Unit Development on 65-acres located south of Fraser Road
and east of Pine Cone Woods Subdivision subject to the five stipulations listed in the
staff report. Seconded by Trustee Collins. Vote by roll call. Calabrese, yes; Collins, yes;
Swalwell, yes; O'Connell, yes; Thomson, no; Cherry, yes. 5 yes, 1 no. Motion Carried.

the three stipulations listed in the staff report. Seconded by Trustee Swalwell. Vote by

amendments. This will be put on CD-ROM.

requests for proposals for design on the Bridge across the DuPage River on Lockport

before us tonight is Crawford, Murphy, & Tilly, Inc. (CMT).
Mr. Joel S. Koenig, a CMT representative, stated they are a multi-discipline firm with
about 50 individuals working out of Aurora, Illinois office. The project is to connect the
east side, older portion of downtown, to the new, west portion of downtown, that will be
established with the new Village Hall. CMT has had the opportunity to work in several
communities where downtown projects were incorporated. They are currently working
