PUBLIC HEARING:

ZA 2018-02: 903 E OAK STREET (CHRIS SAUNDERS, PETITIONER / HILDRETH, OWNER) A RESOLUTION CONCERNING AMENDING THE ZONING CLASSIFICATION FOR 6.74± ACRES OF LAND, COMMONLY KNOWN AS 903 E OAK STREET, MAHOMET IL, FROM C-2 GENERAL COMMERCIAL DISTRICT TO R-3 MULTIPLE-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT.

Abby Heckman presented details of the case.

Chris Saunders, president of Green Street Reality, gave details of other properties in the area in which his company owns and manages. He stated that they would be able to build a much nicer product if this property is rezoned and combined with the existing R-3 zoned property to the south. He stated the site is beautiful and the area is very appealing with the park next door. He stated they expect to draw locals and people that work in Champaign that don’t want to live with students. He stated they would follow current zoning for the density. It will have a club house and pool and there is existing tree buffering on the site. The clubhouse would be in the first phase and they would work back away from US 150 in phases. He stated they have agreed to participate in the cost of a traffic light that would eventually be at the Lake of the Woods Road and US 150 intersection.

Todd Douglas, LCM Architects, stated they are helping Chris develop the architectural renderings for the site. He went through the picture representations which showed the building materials, landscape mounding for

buffering. He stated they plan to have a mix of one (1), two (2), and three (3) bedroom units. The required detention pond will be used as a feature for the residents. There will be a mix of surface parking, garages, and units which have attached garages. Mr. Buchanan asked if there was anyone from the public that would like to speak to the Commission. Leanna Ehrhardt, 903 S McDougal Road, asked about the roll of the PZC. Mr. Buchanan stated the PZC will make a recommendation to the Board of Trustees about whether the proposed zoning is appropriate. The Board of Trustees has the final say on rezoning requests. Leanna Ehrhardt, stated the commercial zoning should remain because it is perfect for the location on US150. She looked up the number of rental units in Mahomet and stated that there seemed to be enough for Mahomet. She is concerned about impacts to the community with additional people. She asked about the green space that would be provided. She stated she is concerned about the traffic impact. No one else from the public came forward to speak. Seamans moved to close the public hearing for ZA2018-02: 903 E OAK STREET. DeAtley seconded the motion. ROLL CALL. ALL YES. Motion Passed. ORDINANCES, RESOLUTIONS and MOTIONS (TO BE ACTED UPON) ZA 2018-02: 903 E OAK STREET (CHRIS SAUNDERS, PETITIONER / HILDRETH, OWNER) A RESOLUTION CONCERNING AMENDING THE ZONING CLASSIFICATION FOR 6.74± ACRES OF LAND, COMMONLY KNOWN AS 903 E OAK STREET, MAHOMET IL, FROM C-2 GENERAL COMMERCIAL DISTRICT TO R-3 MULTIPLE-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT. Abby Heckman asked the petitioner to address access to the site. Chris Saunders stated that the curb cut that existing to the site from US150 would be the main entrance. There will be no significant traffic on any other streets. Commercial property has more traffic that would be in and out all day. Residential properties only have additional traffic at specific times of the day. He stated that the site was not desirable for commercial with all the existing commercial properties available in the community. The property has been for sale for years as commercial and no one has done anything with it. He stated these apartments would be high end, renting at almost $2 per square foot which is top of the market. He stated he didn’t anticipate many families in the complex because their market studies do not show that. Mr. Buchanan asked about the entrance gates and site fencing. Chris Saunders stated the entrances will be gated and the site would not be completely fenced because of the existing natural buffering. The gate would be automated, and they would accommodate school bus and post office access.

Abby Heckman presented details of the Comprehensive Plan for this area and the potential for extension of sanitary sewers through the site. The project would provide a zoning buffer and is considered an infill development. Kelly Pfeifer stated Cornbelt Fire District and our police department has been consulted with this plan and they have voiced no concerns at this time. Patrick Brown stated that school district has been consulted. He stated there were rumors that the density would be three to four times high than what is actually proposed. He stated they were pleased to hear the development would be phased to allow for them to adjust to any student increases. He stated the school impacts from these types of developments aren’t as high as what rumors tend to have them. Ellen Hedrick stated she compared the traffic trips per day if the property remained commercial to the proposed residential use of the site. She stated the traffic generated from the residential site would be 35 to 40 percent less than if the property developed commercial. Patrick Brown stated the fact that the site will be able to access with a traffic light greatly reduces traffic concerns. Mr. Buzicky asked about a realistic timeframe for traffic light installation, though he knows there are no guarantees. Sean Widener stated the traffic light is warranted and the Village has been asking for a traffic light for years. IDOT does not have the intersection as a priority due to funding. A private-public partnership for funding will help facilitate the traffic light. If the development goes through, a tentative estimate for a traffic light could be within five years. Mr. DeAtley asked about the road shown through the property on the Comprehensive Plan. Kelly Pfeifer stated the Comp Plan shows the street going through because it was needed to facilitate development of both commercial and residential as the zoning sits now. The through street is unnecessary if the site develops all as one residential development. She discussed the phasing of the development and the stormwater detention requirements. She stated there would likely be a minor subdivision to combine the property. The Commission discussed the traffic patterns and the density in the area. Mr. Buzicky stated the development looks nice and he likes that the traffic will go out to one spot that can accommodate the traffic. Abby Heckman stated that staff is recommending approval and a resolution is attached for the consideration by the Commission. Mr. Buchanan went through the PZC resolution findings of fact.

REPORT TO PLAN AND ZONING COMMISSION Meeting Date – September 4, 2018

FROM: Abby Heckman, Planner Kelly Pfeifer, Community Development Director and Village Planner

PROJECT: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT – CU2018-02: Eastwood Center

PETITIONER: 804 Eastwood, LLC (owner)

REQUESTED ACTION: A conditional use permit to validate the already established mixed-use commercial building and parking areas located at 804 Eastwood Drive, also known as Eastwood Center. The site is 3.08± acres zoned C-2 General Commercial District. A mixed use commercial establishment requires a conditional use permit in the C-2 zoning district (152.028(B)(12)).

PUBLIC HEARING / PROCEDURAL ISSUES: The Zoning Ordinance requires the Plan and Zoning Commission (PZC) to hold a public hearing upon request for a Conditional Use permit. The public hearing is scheduled for the September 4, 2018 PZC meeting. Public notice was published in the Mahomet Citizen. Notice letters were sent to neighbors via USPS. The PZC acts in an advisory role to the Board of Trustees regarding conditional uses.

OVERVIEW: The site consists of an existing commercial building, parking area, signage and other accessory uses and structures. The petitioner recently purchased the property and desires to legitimize the property as it is currently used and would like to establish conditions that would allow site improvements over time. The Petitioner has submitted a site plan which shows existing site conditions relating to existing signage, parking, and future proposed signage. Factors related to the physical features of the site are part of the conditional use, and requirements can be established that vary from those in current Village ordinances.

LOCATION / SITE DESCRIPTION: The subject property includes three (3) existing parcels consisting of 3.08± acres of land. It is located on the north side of Eastwood Drive approximately 235 feet east of the intersection Eastwood Drive and N Lombard Street (IL 47). The site currently accesses from three (3) access points on to public right-of-way, Eastwood Drive.

Report to Plan and Zoning Commission Conditional Use Permit –CU2018-02: Eastwood Center

PZC Meeting – September 4, 2018 Page 2 of 4

www.mahomet -il.gov

The Zoning Ordinance requires a conditional use permit for mixed uses in the C-2 district. The site is existing and mixed uses have been operating on site since the 1980s. When the site was first established no conditional use permit was processed. Village Staff recommended the new property owner apply for a conditional use permit to confirm the uses on site along with existing signage and parking, and to propose any desired site changes. The site is in an established commercial area. PUBLIC WATER AND SANITARY SEWER FACILITIES: Water and sanitary sewer service is available and exists to this site. AVAILABILITY OF PUBLIC UTILITIES: Public utilities exist to the site and in the area. STREET ACCESS / TRAFFIC: There are three (3) existing vehicular access points to this site from Eastwood Drive. The property owner is not proposing any changes to the current access to the site. Cross access exists between this site and the adjacent properties to the east and west. STORMWATER MANAGEMENT: The site is existing and no major changes to the site are proposed. No site changes are required for compliance with the Village stormwater management ordinance at this time. Future changes could require compliance with applicable regulations in the stormwater management ordinance. POLICE AND FIRE PROTECTION: The Village of Mahomet Police Department currently provides police protection to this site and is approximately 0.7 mile from the police station. This property is within the Cornbelt Fire Protection District and is approximately 0.5 mile from the fire station. CONFORMANCE TO COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Village of Mahomet Comprehensive Plan currently designates this site as part of the Commercial Core functional framework area. The commercial development in this area is expected to include larger retail, convenience retailers, service providers, and other complimenting commercial uses. The Eastwood area is more auto-oriented but should continue to encourage pedestrian amenities. The future land use plan recommends corridor commercial uses at this location. These uses are intended to cater to nearby residents as well as motorists passing through town. SUITABILITY OF PROPOSED CONDITIONAL USE: This is an existing property located in an established commercial area. The existing use of the site and any minor proposed changes will not significantly change the established traffic patterns in the area. STANDARDS FOR CONDITIONAL USES: The standards set forth below may be assured through the imposition of specific conditions for the Conditional Use Permit. The Mahomet Zoning ordinance states that Conditional uses must be planned in such a manner to assure that:

North Interstate 74 Interstate 74

South Mixed Use Commercial/Motel/Temporary Garden Center

C-2 General Commercial

East Mixed Use Commercial – Restaurant/Laundry C-2 General Commercial

West Restaurant – Hen House C-2 General Commercial

Report to Plan and Zoning Commission Conditional Use Permit –CU2018-02: Eastwood Center

PZC Meeting – September 4, 2018 Page 3 of 4

www.mahomet -il.gov

1. The establishment, maintenance, or operation of the conditional use will not be detrimental to or endanger the public health, safety, morals, comfort, or general welfare.

2. The conditional use will not be injurious to the use and enjoyment of other property in the immediate vicinity for the purposes already permitted, nor substantially diminish and impair property values with the neighborhood.

3. The establishment on the conditional use will not impede the normal and orderly development and improvement of surrounding property for uses permitted in the district.

4. Adequate utilities access roads, drainage and/or other necessary facilities will be provided. 5. Adequate measures will be taken to provide ingress and egress so designed as to minimize traffic congestion

in the public streets. 6. The conditional use shall, in all respects, conform to the applicable regulations of the district in which it is

located and the Board shall find that this is a public necessity. STAFF DISCUSSION / ANALYSIS: The Conditional Use Permit process allows the Village to establish site-specific conditions upon a particular use to assure that the use does not adversely impact the neighborhood. The Plan and Zoning Commission will need to consider what conditions, if any, should be a part of the conditional use permit. 1. PARKING / LANDSCAPING: The zoning ordinance requires one (1) parking space per 300 square feet of

building floor area (ZO 152.105(P)), 135 parking spaces would be required to meet the zoning ordinance requirements. The site currently provides 123 parking spaces that are shared by the multiple businesses operating on the site. One (1) parking lot tree per ten (10) parking spaces is also required by the zoning ordinance (ZO 152.108(C)). No parking lot trees are provided on site at this time. The site has functioned with the existing parking spaces and staff believes that the existing parking spaces are more than sufficient to accommodate the parking demand on the site. Staff recommends that the property be allowed a reduction of parking spaces to a minimum of 115 parking spaces to accommodate the future installation of parking lot trees and landscaping islands. The Conditional Use permit is an opportunity to explore the need or desire to accommodate parking lot trees and landscaping.

2. SIGNAGE: The existing signage on the site has been evaluated by Village staff and the property owner. Because a mixed use conditional use permit was never processed, the site is considered one (1) business and therefore technically exceeds the allowed wall and freestanding signage allowed by the zoning ordinance. With a mixed-use designation, the existing wall signs would be compliant with the allowed sign area per business. The property owner has requested to remove the existing pylon freestanding CVS Pharmacy sign and install a new ground mounted freestanding sign that would allow multiple businesses from the site to utilize the sign. The property owner has also requested the ability to install a shared user wall sign on the rear of the building, no details have been submitted addressing this sign. A list of existing signage, a site drawing with sign locations and a drawing of the proposed freestanding sign has been provided with the PZC meeting packet. Staff recommends the property be allowed the 60 square foot monument style freestanding shared user sign as presented in the attached drawing. A general location for the proposed freestanding sign has been shown on the applicant submitted site plan. The exact placement of the sign would be evaluated by Village staff for safety and visibility issues. Staff also recommends allowing a shared user wall sign on the

rear of the building up to 60 square feet in size, the location to be determined with the sign permitting process.

VILLAGE STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Village staff recommend the PZC impose the following conditions on the conditional use permit: 1. The site must maintain the 123 existing off-street parking spaces provided. If the development provides the

required parking lot trees / landscape areas then the minimum allowed parking spaces may be reduced to 115 off-street parking spaces provided on site. A parking lot landscaping plan must be reviewed and approved by the Village Planner prior to reducing the existing parking spaces.

2. One (1) shared user ground mounted freestanding sign is allowed along the frontage of Eastwood Drive. The sign may be up to 60 square feet in size. Any existing freestanding signage along Eastwood Drive must be removed prior to placement of the shared user sign, as stated above.

3. One (1) shared user wall sign is allowed along the north façade of the existing building. The sign may be up to 60 square feet in size. No user may utilize the shared user wall sign if they have an individual wall sign on the same façade.

4. Exact placement of the freestanding signs will be evaluated by Village staff for safety and compliance with other applicable sign provisions in the Zoning Ordinance.

5. All activities must be carried out in accordance with the appropriate Village, State, and Federal permits and rules and regulations. Any conflicts between the permit applications and the Site Plan must be resolved with the appropriate agencies.

6. The site must comply with all applicable provisions of the Zoning Ordinance. ATTACHMENTS:

REPORT TO PLAN AND ZONING COMMISSION Meeting Date – September 4, 2018

FROM: Abby Heckman, Planner Kelly Pfeifer, Community Development Director and Village Planner

PROJECT: CU2018-03 - CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT – SANGAMON ON MAIN

PETITIONER: Sangamon on Main. LLC (owner)

REQUESTED ACTION: A conditional use to establish a mixed use commercial building on the former site of Sangamon Elementary School. The property owner would like to use the existing building and existing off-street parking areas as it is. The site is 3.75± acres zoned C-2 General Commercial District. The proposed use requires a conditional use permit in the C-2 zoning district (152.028(B)(12)).

PUBLIC HEARING / PROCEDURAL ISSUES: The Zoning Ordinance requires the Plan and Zoning Commission (PZC) to hold a public hearing upon request for a Conditional Use permit. The public hearing is scheduled for the September 4, 2018 PZC meeting. Public notice was published in the Mahomet Citizen. Notice letters were sent to neighbors via USPS. The PZC acts in an advisory role to the Board of Trustees regarding conditional uses.

OVERVIEW: The property is in process of converting from an elementary school to a commercial use. The petitioner desires to establish a mixed use commercial building within the existing building. There is existing off-street parking on site and the petitioner would like to utilize the existing parking as it is currently used. The owner does not intend to make any physical changes to the building at this time, with the exception of shared freestanding signage and wall signage for building tenants. Factors related to the physical features of the site are also a part of the conditional use, and requirements can be established that vary from those in current Village ordinances.

LOCATION / SITE DESCRIPTION: The subject property includes five (5) existing parcels consisting of 3.75± acres. The site is located on the southwest corner of Main Street and Lombard Street (IL 47).

Report to Plan and Zoning Commission Conditional Use Permit –CU2018-03 Sangamon on Main

PZC Meeting – September 4, 2018 Page 2 of 4

www.mahomet -il.gov

The Zoning Ordinance requires a conditional use permit for mixed uses in the C-2 district. The site is existing. The property was rezoned from R-3 Multiple-Family Residential district to C-2 General Commercial district by the Village Board of Trustees October 2015 (Ord 15-10-01) in anticipation of the property converting from the school use to a commercial use. PUBLIC WATER AND SANITARY SEWER FACILITIES: Water and sanitary sewer service is available and exists to this site. AVAILABILITY OF PUBLIC UTILITIES: Public utilities exist to the site and in the area. STREET ACCESS / TRAFFIC: Vehicular access is existing onto Main, Lombard (IL47) and Jefferson Streets. There are no proposed changes to the existing street accesses for this property. Sidewalks exist along the entire frontages of Main and Lombard Streets. Sidewalk exists along part of the frontage along Jefferson Street. STORMWATER MANAGEMENT: The site is existing and no major changes to the site are proposed. No site changes are required for compliance with the Village stormwater management ordinance at this time. Future changes could require compliance with applicable regulations in the stormwater management ordinance. POLICE AND FIRE PROTECTION: The Village of Mahomet Police Department currently provides police protection to this site and is approximately 0.4 mile from the police station. This property is within the Cornbelt Fire Protection District and is approximately 400 feet from the fire station. CONFORMANCE TO COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Village of Mahomet Comprehensive Plan currently designates this site as part of the Commercial Core functional framework area. Commercial development in the Main Street / Lombard Street area are to maintain their role as auto-oriented while providing amenities that foster an environment that is safe and inviting to pedestrians. The future land use plan recommends downtown commercial uses at this location. These uses are to strengthen the role, function, and unique character of the downtown area and are intended to cater to nearby residents as well as motorists passing through town. SUITABILITY OF PROPOSED CONDITIONAL USE: This site is located at the “entrance” to the Village’s downtown commercial area. This site has good visibility and easy access from Lombard Street (IL 47). The proposed school building repurpose is consistent with recommended uses and existing uses in the area. The development has existing parking to be shared by users of the building. The community has been very interested in what will happen to the building. Minimal changes to the exterior and the reuse of the building will help preserve the campus look and draw people to the downtown area. STANDARDS FOR CONDITIONAL USES: The standards set forth below may be assured through the imposition of specific conditions for the Conditional Use Permit. The Mahomet Zoning ordinance states that Conditional uses must be planned in such a manner to assure that: 1. The establishment, maintenance, or operation of the conditional use will not be detrimental to or endanger

the public health, safety, morals, comfort, or general welfare.

Report to Plan and Zoning Commission Conditional Use Permit –CU2018-03 Sangamon on Main

PZC Meeting – September 4, 2018 Page 3 of 4

www.mahomet -il.gov

2. The conditional use will not be injurious to the use and enjoyment of other property in the immediate vicinity for the purposes already permitted, nor substantially diminish and impair property values with the neighborhood.

3. The establishment on the conditional use will not impede the normal and orderly development and improvement of surrounding property for uses permitted in the district.

4. Adequate utilities access roads, drainage and/or other necessary facilities will be provided. 5. Adequate measures will be taken to provide ingress and egress so designed as to minimize traffic congestion

in the public streets. 6. The conditional use shall, in all respects, conform to the applicable regulations of the district in which it is

located and the Board shall find that this is a public necessity. STAFF DISCUSSION / ANALYSIS: The Conditional Use Permit process allows the Village to establish site-specific conditions upon a particular use to assure that the use does not adversely impact the neighborhood. The Plan and Zoning Commission will need to consider what conditions, if any, should be a part of the conditional use permit. 1. SIGNAGE: The applicant has submitted renderings that show the location of two (2) proposed

freestanding shared user signs, one (1) at the corner of Lombard and Main Streets, and one (1) on the frontage of Main Street, in the same general location as the existing Sangamon School sign. They are proposing to mimic the brick and architecture of the Main Street building entrance for the requested signs. The sign on Main Street is proposed as a ground mounted, monument style sign of eight (8) feet in height and 72 square feet in area. The sign at the corner of Main and Lombard Streets is proposed as a pylon style sign of 18 feet in height and 90 square feet in area. This request is well below what could be allowed with a Shopping Center Conditional Use permit. A mixed use conditional use permit approval does not have allowed shared sign implications like the shopping center conditional use permit does. The Zoning Ordinance requirements for freestanding shopping center signs are a maximum of one (1) sign per lot frontage, a maximum total sign area not to exceed 150 square feet, and a maximum height of 30 feet. Staff considers the proposed signage as reasonable and recommends permitting the two (2) freestanding signs as presented by the applicant.

VILLAGE STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Village staff recommend the PZC impose the following conditions on the conditional use permit: 1. One (1) monument style sign of no more than 72 square feet in area and eight (8) feet in height will be

allowed along the Main Street frontage. The signage must be constructed in a complimenting style to the existing school building.

2. One (1) pylon style sign of no more than 90 square feet in area and 18 feet in height will be allowed along the Lombard frontage. The signage must be constructed in a complimenting style to the existing school building.

3. Exact placement of the freestanding sign will be evaluated by Village staff for safety and compliance with other applicable sign provisions in the Zoning Ordinance.

5. The site must comply with all applicable provisions of the Zoning Ordinance. ATTACHMENTS:

REPORT TO PLAN AND ZONING COMMISSION Meeting Date – September 4, 2018

FROM: Abby Heckman, Planner Kelly Pfeifer, Community Development Director and Village Planner

CASE: VAR2018-01: Windwood Subdivision Lots 6 and 7

PETITIONERS: Richard Todd, Jennifer Tester, Tyler Buck, and Kelly Buck (Property Owners)

REQUESTED ACTION: Three (3) variances are requested from the standards established by the Village of Mahomet Zoning Ordinance:

1. Allow a front yard setback of 24.3 feet on Lot 7, instead of the required front yard setback of 25 feet(152.090, R-2),

2. Allow a rear yard setback of 24.3 feet on Lot 7, instead of the required rear yard setback of 25 feet(152.090, R-2),

3. Allow a side yard setback of five (5) feet for both Lots 6 and 7 along their common lot line, instead of therequired side yard setback of eight (8) feet (152.090, R-2), and,

PUBLIC HEARING: Village Zoning Board of Appeals will conduct a public hearing at its regular meeting on September 19, 2018 at 7 p.m. Notice was published in the August 31, 2018 issue of the Mahomet Citizen.

LOCATION and SITE DESCRIPTION:

The subject properties are located at Lots 6 and 7 within Windwood Subdivision, also known as 1204 Jeffery Drive and 1206 Jeffery Drive Mahomet, Illinois. The two (2) lots are zoned R-2 Two-Family Residential district. Each lot has an existing single-family dwelling located on it. The lots are within an established neighborhood. Public utilities exist to the properties and sidewalks exist throughout the neighborhood.

HISTORY:

Building permits were issued by the Village for both lots in July of 1999. The builder provided a site drawing with the permit applications but the structures that were built were not properly placed.

The current property owners and their land surveyor brought the encroachments to staff’s attention to help resolve the issues. Both existing houses encroach not only into the required yard setbacks but also onto each other’s property.

CASE DETAILS:

The petitioners would like to correct the current encroachments and ultimately replat the common lot line between the two (2) properties so their homes are on property that they own. The land area between the homes is very limited. The proposed replat will maintain minimum requirements for lots within the subdivision and correct encroachments onto other properties. There will be no visible changes when looking at the properties. The homes have existed in their current state since 1999. See attached survey drawings for specific building locations in relation to existing and proposed property lines.

PZC Meeting September 4, 2018 Page 2 of 3

PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT’S CONFORMANCE TO ORDINANCES and COMPREHENSIVE PLAN

No physical changes to the property are proposed relating to the variances requested. The properties will remain used as single-family residential with the existing homes and other expected accessory uses and structures. The existing use is consistent with recommendations in the Village Comprehensive Plan. The Zoning Ordinance requires a 25-foot front and rear yard setback on R-2 lots. The existing home on Lot 7 has a front and rear yard setback of 24.3 feet. There was an eight (8) inch error when placing the building on the lot. The error is not visible when looking at the home. Staff feels the requested variances still meet the intent of the Zoning Ordinance. The Zoning Ordinance requires an eight (8) foot side yard setback for R-2 lots with detached single-family homes. The property owners are requesting to reduce the required side yard setback to five (5) feet so they can replat the common lot line to eliminate encroachments. If the buildings had been attached, also known as zero-lot line homes, there would be no side yard setback requirement between the homes. Other homes within the development were built as zero-lot line homes. Staff feels the requested variances still meet the intent of the Zoning Ordinance and the homes are still in line with the other existing homes within the neighborhood. STANDARDS FOR VARIATIONS:

The Mahomet Zoning Ordinance sets forth the requirement that the Board of Appeals may grant a variance only when it is determined that all of the following conditions have been met. 1. There are special circumstances or conditions applying to the land or building for which the variance is sought; and, 2. The said special circumstances or conditions are peculiar to such land or buildings and do not apply generally to land

or buildings in this neighborhood; and, 3. The said special circumstances or conditions are such that the strict application of the provisions of the Zoning

Ordinance could deprive the applicant of the reasonable use of such land and building; and, 4. The granting of the requested variance is necessary for the reasonable use of the land and building; and, 5. The variance requested is the minimum variance that will accomplish this purpose; and, 6. The granting of the requested variance will be in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the Zoning

Ordinance; and, 7. The requested variance will not be injurious to the neighborhood or otherwise detrimental to the public welfare;

and, 8. The requested variance will not be in conflict with the Comprehensive Plan. DEVELOPMENT TEAM RECOMMENDATION:

The development team evaluated the case. It unanimously determined that all of the above criteria required for granting of a variance have been met. Usually the most difficult criteria are the determination of the “special circumstances”. In this case, staff determined the following special circumstances:

1. The two (2) existing homes were placed incorrectly by the builder. The property owners are attempting to correct encroachments between the two (2) lots and to correct encroachments into the front and rear yard setbacks on Lot 7.

Staff would support a recommendation by the Plan and Zoning Commission to the Board of Appeals for approval of the requested variances.

REPORT TO PLAN AND ZONING COMMISSION Meeting September 4, 2018

FROM: Abby Heckman, Planner Kelly Pfeifer, Community Development Director and Village Planner

PROJECT: MAP 2017-05: Vision South First Subdivision (Final Plat)

PETITIONER: Conway Farms, LLC

ENGINEER: Farnsworth Group, Inc.

REQUESTED ACTION: Recommendation to the Board of Trustees (BOT) Approval of Final Plat

INTRODUCTION: The Plan and Zoning Commission is asked to consider all the documents concerning the subject subdivision. The subdivision contains two (2) lots and contains all of the property that was approved with the preliminary plat. The plat is to be submitted in accordance with the standard procedures set forth in the Mahomet Subdivision Ordinance.

LOCATION / SITE DESCRIPTIONS: The site is located between Prairieview Road and Churchill Road on the south side of Oak Street (U.S. 150), adjacent to the east of the Conway Commercial East Subdivision. The final plat contains 10± acres, and includes an eastward extension to Patton Drive with one (1) lot on the north side and one (1) lot on the south side of Patton Drive.

CONFORMANCE TO ZONING ORDINANCE: The proposed lot sizes, lot widths, and yard setbacks appear to comply with the requirements of the Village of Mahomet Zoning Ordinance.

CONFORMANCE TO COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Village of Mahomet Comprehensive Plan currently designates this site at the boundary line of East US 150 Gateway functional framework area and East Village functional framework area. Commercial development in this area is encouraged to be a mix of medical, office, and convenience retailers. The future land use plan recommends commercial and multi-family uses in this general area. Commercial uses are intended to primarily serve the day-to-day convenience retail and service needs of surrounding neighborhoods but can also include destination uses. This site has good visibility to US 150 (Oak Street) and as development moves, east commercial properties can accommodate mid to large-scale commercial users. When possible, shared access drives and cross-access should be provided between adjacent commercial users to minimize curb cuts along adjacent roadways. Higher density residential developments should be used as an opportunity to provide quality senior and workforce housing and provides a use transition from commercial zoning. Existing zoning is consistence with the recommendations of the future land use map and the intent of the Comprehensive Plan.

PUBLIC WATER AND SANITARY SEWER FACILITIES: Public sanitary sewer and water mains are to be operated by the Village of Mahomet. Sanitary sewer and water main extensions were approved as part of the Construction Plan approval.

AVAILABILITY OF PUBLIC UTILITIES: This site is adjacent to standard public municipal utilities (gas, cable television, electric, phone). Extension of public utilities to serve the subdivision is feasible. This subdivision involves the necessary extensions of services to all platted lots and accommodates future extensions to adjacent undeveloped by the provisions of utility easements. STREET ACCESS / TRAFFIC: Patton Drive exists up to the west boundary of this plat and the approved construction plans includes an extension of Patton Drive to the east boundary. Lots within this plat will not have direct access to Oak Street (U.S. 150). Access to the site will be allowed from Patton Drive. Sidewalk extensions along Oak Street and Patton Drive frontages are required. One (1) waiver was approved with the preliminary plat to allow dedication of a 65 foot right of way instead of the required 66 foot right of way. The waiver allows the Patton Drive right-of-way to continue with the same width as existing portions of the road. STORMWATER MANAGEMENT: Construction Plans for this plat were approved by the BOT in June 2018 Further stormwater management needs will be addressed with individual site development. POLICE AND FIRE PROTECTION: The Village of Mahomet Police Department currently provides police protection to this site and is approximately 1.8 miles from the police station. This property is within the Cornbelt Fire Protection District and is approximately 1.8 miles from the fire station. OUTSIDE AGENCY REVIEW: The Final Plat has been forwarded to outside agencies for review. No objections had been received at the time of this report and easements are included on the plat as necessary. SUBSIDIARY DOCUMENTS: The Owner’s Certificate and other legal documents were submitted to the Village for review. Staff is in process of finalizing those documents. FINAL PLAT / PROCEDURAL ISSUES: A complete Final Plat application has been submitted, and the application fee has been paid. The petitioner submitted a Final Plat to the Village for review and approval. Staff identified some minor modifications to the Final Plat and forwarded them to the developer’s engineer as technical comments. Subject to revisions, the Final Plat appears to meet the technical requirements of the Village Subdivision Ordinance. The petitioner also submitted, an Owner’s Certificate, and other supporting documents. Village staff reviewed the materials and identified a few minor modifications. Subject to the revisions, the documents appear to meet the technical requirements of the Village Subdivision Ordinance. VILLAGE STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff supports a recommendation by the Plan and Zoning Commission for approval of the Final Plat subject to the standard conditions. SUMMARY: A recommendation to the BOT by the PZC related to the approval of the final plat is requested by the developer. A draft resolution is enclosed for consideration by the Commission. The Plan and Zoning Commission should feel free to modify the resolution as it sees fit. ATTACHMENTS:
