Roll Call Present: Commissioners Seggebruch, Kachel, Gehrke, Manning, Schinder le, Anderson, Sobkoviak, School District Absent: Fire District, Library District, Park District Minutes Chairman Sobkoviak called for any changes to the minutes of the previous meeting(s). Commissioner Anderson noted that he was not listed as present i n the December 18 minutes but was in fact present. It is so noted. Chairman Sobkoviak declared the minutes accepted as amended. Before beginning, Chairman Sobkoviak announced that the schedule would be slightly changed due to some complications. Rather than start with old business, the first case (Kohl’s) in new business would be heard first. New Business CASE NO.: 926 -121401.SPR/SU/RZ/FP KOHLS Request: Site Plan Review, Final Plat, Special Use (public hearing), Rezoning (public hearing) Location: N orthwest corner of 119 th Street and Route 59 Applicant: Ryan Companies US, Inc. Commenced: 7:10pm Planner Garrigan presented the Staff report: DISCUSSION The applicant is seeking to develop approximately 17.38 acres of residentially zoned land for the de velopment of a Kohl’s Department Store in addition to four (4) out lots that would contain future commercial uses. In order to accommodate this proposed development, the applicant is seeking a rezoning from R -1 to B -3, a special use for a Planned Unit Dev elopment (PUD) which would permit the applicant to potentially develop any permitted B -3 use, an automobile service/repair and or fuel station and a bank with drive -thru. The subject site is west of Route 59 and north of 119 th Street and is east of Olymp ic Drive. This site is adjacent to the Champion Creek subdivision along its western and northern perimeter. The Annexation Agreement and Preliminary Plat for the Champion PLAINFIELD PLAN COMMISSION MINUTES January 15, 2002 Page 2 Creek Subdivision was approved by the Village Board on August 19, 1996. Consistent with the terms of the Annexation Agreement and Preliminary Plat, approximately 20 acres of the total 121 -acre development were to be zoned B -3 commercial. These 20 acres of commercial property development were to be located at the southeastern corner of the Champion Creek subdivision (division and 119 th Street). REZONING What distinguishes this applicant’s request (to rezone the site from R -1 to B -3) from the recent Wal -Mart case is the fact that in this case the annexation agreement was executed in Se ptember of 1996 and the developer designated this parcel to be used for B -3 purposes in the future. The applicant’s request to rezone this property is consistent with the terms of the annexation agreement and the Village is contractually obligated to comp ly with the terms contained therein. Whenever looking at a requested rezoning, it is necessary to look at the surrounding property uses and their zoning. Below is a list of the current uses surrounding this subject parcel: North: R -1 (Champion Creek S ubdivision) South: R -1 (Heritage Meadows Subdivision) East: Unincorporated will County (Landscape Business) West: R -1 (Champion Creek Subdivision) Section 9 -29 of the Village of Plainfield’s Zoning Ordinance identifies five standards that the applicant wi ll have to demonstrate that they have complied with before any rezoning can be approved: (a) The amendment promotes the public health, safety, comfort, convenience and general welfare and complies with the policies and official land use plan and other officia l plans of the Village. …Consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, staff has traditionally sought to concentrate commercial development along nodes or major intersections. The intersection of 119 th Street and Division Street is considered a major intersect ion. (b) The trend in the area of the subject property is consistent with the requested amendment. The applicant’s proposed use of this parcel would be consistent with the trends of development along many of the major nodes along the Division Street corrid or. In addition, staff foresees that there will be additional commercial development at the southwestern corner of 119 th Street and Division Street (across the street from the applicant’s proposed site). (c) The requested zoning classification permits us es that are more suitable than the uses permitted under the existing zoning classification. PLAINFIELD PLAN COMMISSION MINUTES January 15, 2002 Page 3 In view of the existing Comprehensive Plan and the preliminary land use plan for the new Comprehensive Plan, staff believes that the proposed use of this parcel as a commercial site is a more suitable use of this property than the current R -1 zoning. This proposed commercial use would be consistent with the commercial development that is occurring along several of the major intersections in the Village such as Jewe l/Osco, Meijers, Menards and Target. (d) This property cannot yield a reasonable use if permitted only under the conditions allowed under the existing zoning classification. (e) The amendment, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the nei ghborhood and will not be a substantial detriment to adjacent property. Consistent with Village ordinance, the applicant as part of their site plan review has proposed extensive amounts of natural screening along Olympic Drive and the northern perimeter o f this site to provide an adequate buffer between this proposed commercial site and the residential neighborhood of Champion Creek subdivision. The proposed natural screening will incorporate a 20’ landscape buffer along Olympic Drive and the northern per imeter of this site. Based on the foregoing analysis, it appears that the applicant has met the five required standards that must be demonstrated before a rezoning can be granted. SPECIAL USE FOR A PUD The applicant is proposing that this 17.38 -acre site be developed as a Planned Unit Development (PUD)…. The proposed commercial uses of the applicant’s PUD is contingent upon the applicant first receiving the requested rezoning of this site. The current R -1 zoning on this site does not allow any of th e applicant’s requested commercial uses. As part of this PUD, the applicant is proposing that this site contain six parcels. Parcels 2 and 3 will contain the Kohl’s and future retail center. As part of this PUD, the applicant is proposing the following uses for these parcels:  The applicant is proposing that they be permitted to develop any permitted use in the B -3 Community Shopping Center District on the various out -lots.  In addition, that the applicant be permitted only one bank or financial institutio n with drive -thru on either Lot 1 or Lot 4 of this PUD.  That the applicant be permitted only one automobile service/repair station and/or an automobile fuel center with related uses (convenience store, car wash, etc.) only on Lot 6. An automobile service or fuel station facility is identified as a special use in the B -3 zoning district. Additionally, the operation of a bank is not identified in the B -3 zoning district as a permitted use. However, this proposed PUD will provide the applicant with the oppo rtunity to vary from the permitted uses in the B -3 zoning district. The applicant PLAINFIELD PLAN COMMISSION MINUTES January 15, 2002 Page 4 is also requesting as part of this PUD the right to incorporate a drive -thru on lots 1,4,5, and 6. As a condition of this proposed PUD, the applicant has further agreed to locate any future drive -thru on lots 1,4,5, and 6 away from the public right -of -ways (Division Street and 119 th Street). The applicant is proposing a parking ratio of 4.3 parking spaces for every 1,000 square feet of floor area in any future development o n these out -lots. The Village’s parking ordinance would require a parking ratio of 5.5 for every 1,000 square feet of floor area for retail uses (e.g. drug store) and one parking space for every 250 square feet of gross floor area for a bank. PLANNED UNI T DEVELOPMENT Pursuant to 9 -39 of the Village Zoning Ordinance, the Plan Commission shall not recommend nor the Village Board grant a planned unit development unless it shall make a finding based on the evidence presented to it based on seven standards for a PUD: 1. The design of the planned unit development presents a innovative and creative approach to the development of land and living environments. The applicant is proposing to construct an 89,091 square -foot Kohl’s Department Store and has identified a future retail center that will adjoin this Kohl’s. Consistent with a number of the elements in the new site plan review ordinance that staff has been working on, the applicant has agreed to incorporate numerous design elements into the proposed Kohl’s and future commercial uses on the out -lots that will make this development more architecturally consistent. 2. The planned unit development meets the requirements and standards of the planned unit development regulations. It appears the applicant meets the mer its of the special use permit…. 3. The physical design of the planned unit development efficiently utilizes the land and adequately provides for transportation and public facilities while preserving the natural features of the site. Access to this site is p rovided via a full access from Division Street at the northernmost portion of the site, a right -in between lot 4 and 5 on Division Street, and an additional right -in on 119 th Street. A full access has been provided on Olympic Drive. 4. Open space area and r ecreational facilities are provided. 5. The modification in design standards from the subdivision control regulations and the waivers in bulk regulation from the zoning regulations fulfill the intent of those regulations. PLAINFIELD PLAN COMMISSION MINUTES January 15, 2002 Page 5 At the present time the applicant h as not requested any variation from the subdivision control ordinance or bulk regulations that are enumerated in the Zoning Ordinance. 6. The planned unit development is compatible with the adjacent properties and the neighborhood. The proposed use of this property is consistent with the Village’s Comprehensive Plan and other commercial developments along the Division Street corridor. 7. The planned unit development fulfills the objectives of the Comprehensive Plan and land use policies of the Village. The Vi llage’s current Comprehensive Plan identifies that the major intersections along the Division Street corridor are appropriate locations to contain commercial developments. SITE PLAN REVIEW Parking and Drive Areas : It appears that the full access drives t o this site will provide the appropriate degree of vehicular ingress and egress out of this commercial site. As to any improvements to 119 th Street, the staff would defer to the Village Engineer to determine the required specifications for these improveme nts. Based on a review by staff, it appears that this site would require 490 parking spaces; the applicant has provided 550 parking spaces. Architecture : The Site Plan Review Ordinance requires exterior building facades to be constructed with no less tha n 25% masonry unless specifically approved by the Village Board. The applicant as proposed facades that incorporate utility brick along all four facades, in addition to split concrete block and pre -finished metal coping. The staff has had an opportunity to review the color of the proposed utility brick and it appears that it is a masonry product with a dark earth tone color. It appears the applicant has incorporated several of the new design elements that staff has been looking for in large retail uses a long their front façade. These design elements include the applicant’s proposed use of extensive amounts of foundation plantings, raised landscape planters and projections and recesses in the front façade. Consistent with some of the other elements that staff has been looking for, staff would encourage the applicant to consider the incorporation of some pedestrian friendly elements like benches or seating ledges along the raised planters, design elements that would encourage some limited pedestrian activi ty. Landscaping : The 17.38 -acre site will require 1,044 plantings. The applicant is proposing the incorporation of 1,129 plantings on this site. Pursuant to discussions with the applicant about the content of the plantings in the 20’ landscape buffer in corporated along Olympic Drive and the northern perimeter of this site, the applicant has agreed to add some additional landscape to this site plan. Specifically, the applicant has agreed to PLAINFIELD PLAN COMMISSION MINUTES January 15, 2002 Page 6 add additional 8’ evergreen trees along the northern perimeter o f the site to insure that a screen of 75% opacity is provided in this 20’ landscape buffer. Furthermore, the applicant has agreed to add a mix of 6’ to 8’ trees along the western perimeter of this site, with the Kohl’s loading dock screened by 8’ trees, s o as to provide a 75% opacity of screening along the western perimeter. RECOMMENDATION The applicant’s proposed Kohl’s store appears to meet the requirements of the Village’s Site Plan Review Ordinance as to architecture, landscaping and the required buff ering from residential areas. The staff would request that the applicant submit lighting specifications for the proposed standards and fixtures that will be used at this site prior to final approval. Based on the foregoing, Staff recommends the following :  Approval of the rezoning of the subject site from the current R -1 (Single Family Residential) to B -3 (Community Shopping Center District).  Concurrence with the finding of fact as identified in the Village of Plainfield Zoning Ordinance and recommend ap proval of the Planned Unit Development for the subject property subject to the following stipulations: 1. Compliance with the requirements of the Village Engineer. 2. Compliance with the requirements of the Plainfield Fire Protection District. 3. That th e terms of the correspondence dated January 9 th , 2002 from Ryan Companies US, Inc. be incorporated as part of this Planned Unit Development. 4. Applicant agrees to incorporate the terms of the correspondence dated January 10, 2002 from the Chief John Eichelbe rger of the Fire Protection District.  Approval of the Site Plan for the Kohl’s Department Store subject to the following stipulations: 1. Compliance with the requirements of the Village Engineer. 2. Compliance with the Plainfield Fire Protection District. 3. That the applicant comply with the Village’s drive aisle width and parking stall length requirement. 4. That the applicant submit the plans for the lighting standards and fixtures prior to final approval of this site plan. 5. That the applicant provide an intern al sidewalk plan that will show some pedestrian connection prior to the final approval. 6. That the applicant provide the appropriate landscaping along the northern and western perimeter of this site to insure a 75% visual screen from the adjoining residentia l areas.  Approval of the final plat for the Planned Unit Development of the Plainfield Retail Center subject to the following stipulations: PLAINFIELD PLAN COMMISSION MINUTES January 15, 2002 Page 7 1. Compliance with the Village Engineer. 1. Compliance with the requirements of the Plainfield Fire Protection Distr ict. Andy Zeminitis of Wiseman -Hughes presented the applicant’s opening remarks. The applicant has been consulting with Staff since mid -summer. Mr. Zeminitis commented briefly on the issues of rezoning, final plat, and site plan review. He closed by sa ying that Ryan Companies is committed to providing a quality project. John Bell of Ryan Companies US, Inc. now presented. Last week the applicant held a meeting with neighbors in the adjacent community. He asked whether the commission wished to receive a full presentation (which would take a considerable amount of time) or, since the public was basically aware of the applicant’s position and information, simply to open up the case to public comment. Commissioner Manning asked what role Ryan Companies pl ays in this project. Mr. Bell said that Ryan Companies is a Minneapolis -based company that does work with high rises and similar developments. His role in the Chicago area is strictly developmental in nature. He has worked in numerous communities. Topi cs that were discussed last week included such issues as traffic, landscaping, and site -line elevations. Chairman Sobkoviak opened the discussion up to public comment at this time. Linda Merbainis of 11717 Derby St. asked what entrances the delivery truc ks to Kohl’s and other retail stores would use. This concerns her because the site is “right in my back yard”. Additionally, in regards to landscaping, how much space would separate her property and Kohl’s. “Daryll” of 11705 Derby St. was concerned with the elevation of the berm screening his home from Kohl’s. He estimated that the current elevation would allow parked cars’ headlights to shine directly into his home. Mr. Bell responded by saying that the parking in that area will be minimal and any car s that did park there would not be at an elevation that would inconvenience the homeowner. He reiterated that what was being presented now was merely a concept plan. – Minor discussion ensued – Jesus Martinez , also a nearby homeowner, inquired where the access points would be located and how close to the residences these would be. Jim Quaid of 11624 S. Decathalon St. asked if the landscaping plans included a fence. PLAINFIELD PLAN COMMISSION MINUTES January 15, 2002 Page 8 Mr. Bell said that Staff felt that the current landscaping plan (which includes exten sive plantings but no fence) is the most appropriate solution, but would consider a fence if it became apparent that this was the strongest desire of the homeowners. Mr. Quaid asked whether the village will take responsibility of maintenance of the retent ion pond on the southwest corner of Olympic and 119 th Street. Mr. Bell stated that “we don’t wish to shirk our responsibilities”. Commissioner Kachel asked Staff who typically takes care of a retention pond in a situation like this. Planner Carroll said that typically the developer would take responsibility. Trevor Lee expressed concern about truck noise from delivery traffic as well as traffic control in the subdivision; he felt it was likely that the subdivision would suffer from the increased volume of traffic in the area. Kathleen Faas inquired about a traffic signal on Route 59. Ralph Gillian, the traffic engineer for the project, said that a signal would have to be discussed with IDOT (Illinois Dept. of Transportation). Ms. Faas made a further i nquiry as to the length of time trucks would sit after delivery. Mr. Bell responded that information indicated that the trucks operate on an almost immediate turnaround policy and would sit for less than 10 minutes at a time. David Sowa of 11724 Olympic St. pointed made the observation that trees take a considerable amount of time to grow, thereby creating the problem of delaying what he sees as an effective screen by several years. Rich Keefer of Decathalon voiced concerns about the full access on 119 th Street. Increased traffic in the area also presents a safety problem for children in the neighborhood. He also expressed his desire not to have a fuel station on this site. Janet Dvorak of 11561 Olympic St. also expressed a concern for the safety of ch ildren in view of the likely increase in traffic in the area. Mr. Bell interjected that he and his associates have, in fact, worked very hard to arrive at the most suitable solution. He also noted that there must be a certain number of a certain kind of entry points to allow for the flow of emergency vehicles to the area. Scott Clark of Olympic St. said that the full access on 119 th Street creates problems for the area. PLAINFIELD PLAN COMMISSION MINUTES January 15, 2002 Page 9 Linda Smuskowicz of Olympic St. made several comments. School buses will also be in the area and an increase in traffic will threaten the safety of the children exiting those buses. She also felt that the homeowners shouldn’t bear all the responsibility for the maintenance of the retention pond. Ralph Gillian (traffic engineer), in th e hope of allaying some of the residents’ fears about increases in traffic, commented that Route 59 will accommodate 75% of the traffic to this development. Gary Cooper cited concerns about safety, pollution from delivery trucks both in fume and noise for m. Mr. Cooper questioned the competence of the developers and expressed his belief for a need to divert traffic away from the residential area. – General discussion – Eileen Kumbo of 11654 Decathalon suggested that there be citations for truck drivers using Olympic St. “Dan” of 11713 Derby St. said that there should be a quiet zone in the area in order to reduce noise from delivery traffic. Ken Miller had a concern about lighting and wondered from where the deliveries typically originated. He felt t hat, if the deliveries came from great distances, there was a good chance that the truck drivers would have to sleep overnight at the site. Gary Cooper expressed further concerns about construction traffic tracking mud onto the roads, thereby causing the cars in the area to get dirty. At this time, Chairman Sobkoviak closed the public comment session. Chairman Sobkoviak asked the commission whether the members wanted to suspend deliberation due to the extensive amount of time the case had already taken u p. Commissioner Kachel suggested stipulating that the gas station proposal should not proceed. He felt that the developer should avoid installing a fuel station. Mr. Bell said that plans suggested incorporation of a service center. Chairman Sobkoviak a sked Joe Regis if he had any concerns. – A discussion of improvements to 119 th Street ensued – Chairman Sobkoviak asked Mike Garr how exactly signage concerns pan out in this situation. He also asked whether the parking proposal was adequate. Commi ssioner Seggebruch asked some architecturally related questions. PLAINFIELD PLAN COMMISSION MINUTES January 15, 2002 Page 10 Chairman Sobkoviak read a letter from Kris and Christopher Neven who could not attend the meeting and who had reservations about the development. Commissioner Schinderle moved to recommend approval of the rezoning of the subject site from the current R -1 (Single Family Residential) to B -3 (Community Shopping District).

Ron March made the opening comments. Jack Benning reviewed the revised plans with the Commission. He explained the renderings before the commissioners and attempted to distinguish the main characteristics of the revisions from the previous plans. Commissioner Anderson asked whether the he (Jack Benning ) had varied the rooflines to make for a more pleasant appearance. Chairman Sobkoviak, noting that the development allowed for add -ons, commented that add -ons could potentially create headaches for the commission in the future. Commissioner Kachel asked why a clubhouse wasn’t included in the plans for this development. Chairman Sobkoviak asked Doug Carroll if there were any issues that needed consideration. Planner Carroll said that curb cuts should be discussed. Commissioner Seggebruch said that the f ull access on Route 30 is not necessary. – Discussion of traffic needs – Chairman Sobkoviak looked for a consensus among the commissioners. Commissioner Kachel brought up the possibility of implementing some way of connecting the southwest parcel and the land designated for a new senior residence area. Commissioner Kachel asked if Mr. March would agree to the guidelines in the site plan review, to which Mr. March replied that he would agree to some.

New Business (cont’d) CASE NO.: 905 -090501.FP/SPR ARBOR CREEK, UNIT 3 Request: Final Plat & Site Plan Review Location: West of Interstate 55, South of Com Ed Right -of -way, North of Arbor Creek Drive Applicant: Jerry Dill Commenced: 11:08pm PLAINFIELD PLAN COMMISSION MINUTES January 15, 2002 Page 13 Planner Drayna pre sented the staff report: The applicant is seeking final plat and Site Plan Review for the townhomes portion of the Arbor Creek Subdivision. This portion of Arbor Creek is known as unit 3. The subdivision is approved for 114 single -family units and 88 to wnhomes. Unit 3 will consist of the 88 townhomes approved on the preliminary plat. The gross residential density for the subdivision is 2.93 units per acre. ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN Architectural monotony is a concern with Unit 3 of Arbor Creek. The applic ant has provided 3 different types of architectural designs and elevations. Staff feels that 3 types of architectural designs provide some variety in satisfying the anti -monotony provisions in the ordinance. Site plan review requires that all buildings c onsist of 25% masonry on the entire building. Staff feels that the building as proposed does meet the 25% masonry requirement of the site plan review ordinance. LANDSCAPING Each 4 -plex has a landscape plan that was submitted by the applicant. The approv ed plans also have 2 3 -plex buildings and 1 2 -plex building. Staff would suggest that the applicant add landscaping to the base of the backs of the buildings. This will also help to break up the monotony of the backs of the buildings. RECOMMENDATIONS St aff recommends approval of the Final Plat for Unit 3 of Arbor Creek subject to the following stipulations: 1. Compliance with the requirements of the Village Engineer. 2. Compliance with the provisions of the Plainfield Fire Protection District. 3. Submit covenant s and restrictions prior to Village Board approval. Furthermore, staff recommends approval of the site plan review subject to the following stipulations: 1. Compliance with the requirements of the Village Engineer. 2. Compliance with the provisions of the Pla infield Fire Protection District. 3. Incorporate additional architectural features to the front and rear elevations. 4. Finish the bike path along the Lily Cache Creek prior to first occupancy. PLAINFIELD PLAN COMMISSION MINUTES January 15, 2002 Page 14 Roy Krugoff explains the architectural elements of the project. H e would like to come up with a variety of garage doors and gables. He also thought it would be better to keep the brick in front rather than wrap it around to the back. There was general support amongst the commission for material called “hardy plank” as opposed to vinyl siding. Commissioner Anderson said that he feels the project still looks a bit monotonous. Mr. Krugoff asked for opinions on using masonry on the buildings. Commissioners voiced general support for the project with some minor modificat ions. Commissioner Kachel moved to recommend approval for the Final Plat for Unit 3 of Arbor Creek subject to the stipulations outlined in the staff report. Commissioner Schinderle seconded the motion. Chairman Sobkoviak called for vote by role call. A ye: Kachel, Seggebruch, Manning, Schinderle, Anderson, Sobkoviak Nay: Gehrke The motion is carried 6:1. Commissioner Kachel moved to recommend approval for the site plan review subject to the stipulations outlined in the staff report. Commissioner Seggeb ruch seconded the motion. Chairman Sobkoviak called for vote by roll call. Aye: Kachel, Seggebruch, Manning, Schinderle, Sobkoviak Nay: Gehrke, Anderson The motion is carried 5:2. Chairman Sobkoviak welcomed any motions to continue case number 899 -08 2201.TA SITE PLAN REVIEW ORDINANCE. Commissioner Schinderle moved to continue. Commissioner Manning seconded the motion. The motion was carried unanimously by voice vote.
