would be the actuality.
OLD BUSINESS:
NEW BUSINESS:
CASE NO. 464- 092994.FP RENWICK POINTE UNIT 2
Planner Waldock summarized his report as follows: The Final Plat for Unit 2 is the continuation of
Renwick Pointe and includes 26 Single- family homesites. The total number of lots in Renwick
Pointe will reach 64 homesites. The improvement to Renwick Pointe Unit 2 will include the
upgrading and reconstruction of Howard Avenue between Ruben and Feeney. It will also include
the improvement of Feeney Avenue between Howard and Dan O'Connell. Dan O'Connel Drive
improvements are being constructed by the adjoining developer.
The Preliminary Plat for Renwick Pointe was approved by the Village on May 21, 1990. The
Preliminary Plat included 62 Single- family residential lots. An amendment tothe existing Annexation
Agreement for the subject property has been approved to allow a reduction in lot width from 85 ft.
minimum required by ordinance to 77.5 ft. This slight reduction in lot width will allow the
establishment of two more single - family homesites within the subdivision, without reducing lot areas
below the 12,000 sq. ft. minimum requirement. Staff has supported this width reduction proposal
in that it allows the Village to assess a $1000 per lot impact fee. This impact fee would not
otherwise be available without the width reduction. Therefore the Village will benefit from $26,000
of impact fee revenue that otherwise would not have been generated.
No major issues are associated with this subdivision plat. The Final Plat is consistent with provisions
of the original Preliminary Plat approvals. Therefore Staff would have no objection to the approval
of the Final Plat for Renwick Pointe Subdivision Unit 2 as proposed.

The Plan Commission discussed the parking for the site and the landscape plantings along Rt. 126.
Commissioner Smolich requested the use of Keystone blocks rather than railroad ties in the
landscape berms in the area, wherever possible. At the time of the vote, the developer did agree
to look into the blocks.
H. Hamilton, Village Engineer felt that the issues on this relate to The Reserve, not to Cambridge.
The Reserve has proposed to put a single sanitary sewer pump station central in their site (on Rt.
126) that would pump up along the Material Service property to 135th Street. The developer wants
to put in two lift stations rather than one. If they use two lift stations, the Engineer wants one on
143rd Street to serve a regional purpose.
The Fire Department felt that their concerns had been addressed.
After a short discussion, R. Schinderle made a motion to recommend to the Village Board, the
approval of the Final Plat for Cambridge Homes at the Reserve subject to the stipulations of the Staff.
Seconded L. Kachel. Rol I call vote: R. Smolich, yes; (In spite of the fact that he was dissatisfied with
the Railroad ties for the berming) L. Kachel, yes; W. Schempf, yes; R. Schinderle, yes; W.
Manning, yes; A. Anderson, yes; Chairman Sobkoviak, yes. Motion carried 7 yes 0 no.
