Chairman Sobkoviak wished the Plan Commission Happy Holidays, and congratulated Jeff on being employee of the year. He also challenged the Plan Commission to come up with ideas for buffering the houses that back up to arterials, besides using fences for privacy. PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT REPORT: Planner Durbin reported: Thornton Oil signage and outside sales will be brought into compliance. The Keller Annexation Agreement public heariang was held. Utility tax at 4% was passed excluding government. Wallin Woods was tabled, the downtown design competition has been started, and we will forward a letter of intent. The Sweetwood Annexation was approved, and the Ordinance for the Comprehensive Plan was approved. The secretary was directed to publish the 1996 schedule for the Plan Commission. CASE NO. 511- 111595.AA This Annexation Agreement proposes the establishment of B -3 zoning for the 27 acre site. Staff finds this zoning to be acceptable under the new Comprehensive Plan and the Village's downtown sector plan. The Annexation Agreement does not provide for any freeze of Zoning Ordinance, Building Codes, Subdivision Ordinances or other governing standards that apply to development on the subject site. The applicants have agreed to develop their property in accordance with standards applicable at the time of development. The developers have agreed to pay any an all lawfully imposed recapture fees. The developers have asked to establish a recapture ordinance in the event they have oversized or deepened their utilities for their benefit of adjoining properties while incurring extra costs on themselves to do so. This is generally acceptable. The Village has in the past entered into similar agreements with other parties. The agreement provides that the Village shall guarantee at no cost to the owner /developer sufficient plant capacity to adequately treat sewage generated from the property when fully developed. The agreement however requires 12 months prior notice of pending dvelopment and the guarantee is to be limited to 500 PE or 50,000 gal per day. This provision does not provide waiver of any tap -on fees for the sanitary sewer plant usage. PLAN COMMISSION MINUTES December 19, 1995 Page 2 The developer has asked for conditional site development permit for grading of the subject property prior to Final Plat approval. The agreement requires that the property owners or developer assume all risk with regard to such work, and therefore have agreed to modify any grades contrary to the final grading plan. This paragraph provides that the developer shall not be obligated to construct roadway improvements not provided for as part of this agreement or plans for development of the property that they may later submit. Reference to Preliminary Plat should be added to this paragraph for sake of clarification. This section provides for waiver of the Village's $1750 per acre residential Annexation Impact Fee and waiver of the $3500 per acre Commercial Annexation Impact Fees. Additionally the applicants have asked that no zoning fees be imposed upon the subject property as well. The Annexation Agreement recognizes that the Postal Service shall not be subject to regulations under local Zoning and Building Codes. The agreement also specifies that the Postal Service property will be developed for postal purposes in accordance with current plans recently presented to the Village. The agreement allows for construction of the Post Office facilities prior to the establishment of B -3 Business zoning if desired. The Annexation Agreement as presented with this report is in general compliance with Village policies and previously submitted staff review materials. No major issues remain unresolved with regard to the Keller Annexation Agreement. Therefore, Staff has no objections to proceeding with Ordinances in this case. Staff recommended approval of the Annexation Agreement with minor revisions. Discussion of the Commissioners included the total monies requested to be waived. A rough estimate by T. Spika, was $95,000.00. Debate centered around the value of the six acres given to the Post Office, in relation to the $95,000.00 fees waived. It was decided that a note be made in the minutes that it is recommended that these waivers have been allowed because of the six acre site donated for a Post Office, to allow an extention of the downtown core area to the west. It was felt that was an appropriate vehicle to accomplish that objective. R. Schinderle made a motion to recommend to the Village Board, the approval of the Annexation Agreement subject to the deletion of the last two lines of Paragraph 3, and the establishment of B -3 Zoning for Case No. 511 - 111595.AA. The Plan Commission felt the waiver of Impact Fees should be granted due to the petioner donating six acres for the Post Office in that it is the Village's wish to extend the down town core area to the west.
