TOUR OF RIVER PLACE FACILITY
Mayor Low stated the purpose of this public meeting at River Place was to afford the
Council an opportunity to tour the facility and note the construction improvements which have
taken place since the site was purchased in June. She noted there would be no action taken at
this time.
Mr. Roy Blavvise, representing the current owners of the facility, was present and
conducted the tour and responded to Council questions.
Mr. Blavvise noted following the purchase of River Place, construction on the site
commenced in the beginning of July. The first priority was completing the surfacing of the Wahl
Lot as required per agreement with the City. Work then commenced on the residential units
and common areas of River Place. There are 27 residential units and approximately 20,000
square feet of commercial space in the facility.
The tour commenced in the common area which contains the fitness center, business
center and open reception area, all for use of only the residential tenants and their families.
The tour then proceeded to the common area on the roof deck which contains grilling units and
pertinent amenities for residents of the facility. Mention was made of the intent to install
privacy features to protect second floor tenants from view from the public.
Mr. Blavvise noted the fourth floor units were completed. The third floor units were
95%completed and work is currently ongoing in the second floor units. He noted it is the intent
to be 95%completed with the entire project by the end of September.
Mr. Blavvise then led the group on a tour of several models located on the fourth floor,
noting the upgrades included in all units which make the units upscale apartments which would
be readily converted to condos when the economy permitted.
Mayor Low inquired if there were any questions of Mr. Blavvise relative to the tour.
Alderman Schaefer inquired if there would be a canopy installed over the second floor
rooftop common area. Mr. Blavvise responded that is not being proposed at this time.

REQUEST FOR SIGN VARIANCE—RYAN P CONWAY AGENCY LLC, 3319 WEST ELM STREET
In attendance was Ryan Conway, application for a sign variance for his facility located at
3319 West Elm Street.
Deputy Administrator Martin stated a request was submitted by Ryan Conway for a sign
variance for his business located at 3318 West Elm Street. The office is located on the south
side of Elm Street between Riverside Drive and Park Street. Mr. Conway would like to install an
18' tall freestanding sign. However, the sign ordinance permits a freestanding sign with a
maximum 15' height. Deputy Administrator Martin noted the applicant cites two reasons in
support of the variance request:
1. Protruding building to the west of his site which obstructs signage visibility;
2. Financial hardship.
Deputy Administrator Martin stated Staff has reviewed the request and believes the
request does not meet the criteria for a variance, including:
1. Whether the property owner is provided an unfair advantage over a similar business;
2. Potential effect on public welfare and to surrounding properties;
3. Possible impact on the supply of light and air;
4. Influence on fire risk, public safety,and neighborhood property values.

September 12,2011
Motion by Wimmer, seconded by Santi, to grant a sign variance permitting an 18' high
freestanding sign for Ryan P Conway Agency LLC for the facility located at 3319 West Elm Street
as presented.
Discussion on the Motion
Alderman Santi stated he would like to add a provision to Alderman Wimmer's motion
stating that the sign must conform to sign ordinance requirements by August 7, 2013.
Alderman Wimmer stated his preference that the motion stands as presented.
Alderman Santi withdrew his second to the motion on the floor.
Alderman Glab seconded the motion.
Alderman Condon expressed her appreciation of the City's conformance deadline to all
non-conforming signs by August 7, 2013; however, the 2013 deadline is fast approaching and,
in light of the difficult economic climate, requiring conformance by that date could present a
hardship to many business owners in the City. Alderman Condon stated she could not support
the variance request as presented.
Alderman Glab requested clarification regarding what non-conforming signs would be
subject to compliance with the sign ordinance by August 7, 2013. City Attorney McArdle
responded that when a sign variance is granted, compliance with the sign ordinance by August
7, 2013 would not be required.
Alderman Glab stated it was his understanding that businesses would be required to
conform to the amended sign ordinance over a period of time. If any more applications are
received there should be a caveat that the signs must conform by August 7, 2013. He opined
there should be a limit as to the number of variances granted.
Alderman Blake suggested going back to committee and amending the 2013 compliance
date.
Alderman Peterson recognized that it is a new business venture, and stated he would
like to allow the applicant time to get his business on its feet.
Alderman Condon stated she would be happy to address this issue at the Community
Development Committee. However, she does not know if she would be willing to change the
compliance date. She stated she would be willing to support leaving the sign as it is until 2013.
Alderman Wimmer withdrew his motion. Alderman Glab withdrew his second. The
motion was withdrawn from the table.

September 12,2011
Motion by Santi, seconded by Schaefer, to approve a sign variance to allow an 18' high
freestanding sign for Ryan P Conway Agency LLC located at 3319 West Elm Street, subject to the
condition that the sign must conform by August 7, 2013 or the applicant would be required to
pay the annual fee based on the degree of non-conformity as specified in the sign ordinance.
Discussion on the Motion
Mayor Low inquired if Alderman Santi's motion would be applicable if the committee
revisits the August 7, 2013 compliance date and elects to extend the compliance date. Attorney
McArdle stated the status would be that the sign reverts to non-conforming status and the
applicant would be in the same position as he is now.
Votins on the Motion
Voting Aye: Santi, Glab, Schaefer, Peterson, Condon.
Voting Nay: Blake, Wimmer.
Absent: None.
Motion carried.
REQUEST FOR SIGN VARIANCE—O'REILLY AUTO PARTS, 4611 WEST ELM STREET
In attendance was Chuck Zenn representing the sign company and Marty Pegas, District
Manager for O'Reilly Automotive Parts.
Deputy Administrator Martin stated a request was submitted by O'Reilly Automotive for
a sign variance to allow a four-foot setback variance to allow their sign to be installed one foot
from the Elm Street property line. Staff has reviewed criteria for considering sign variances and
believes the sign variance would provide O'Reilly with an unfair advantage without appropriate
justification and is therefore recommending denial.
Mr. Zenn addressed Council and stated O'Reilly wished to erect their freestanding sign
in the center of their frontage as the current location would inhibit truck traffic within the site.
In order to install the sign and ensure good visibility, a property line setback reduction to one
foot would be required.
Mr. Pegas stated there would be nightly deliveries made to the store by a 40-foot truck,
and if the driveway entry at the east end of the property were reduced due to sign placement,
the delivery trucks would be unable to access the property. A lengthy discussion followed.
Motion by Wimmer, seconded by Condon, to accept Staff's recommendation to deny a
sign variance allowing a one-foot setback from the north property line for a freestanding sign as
requested by O'Reilly Automotive Parts.

variance to allow four 30 square foot feather banners along West Campus frontage, the current
meeting place of the church, and a 51 square foot metal sign to be displayed on the north
entrance of the school.
Deputy Administrator Martin noted Staff has reviewed the request and believes
displaying four feather banners would be excessive. Staff supports the display of the 51 square
foot metal sign and two 30 square foot banners subject to the following conditions:
1. Banners shall be replaced if they become worn and tattered;
2. Banners and metal sign shall not be located in public right-of-way at any time;

ORDINANCE AUTHORIZING THE FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE ROAD CONSTRUCTION
AGREEMENT AMONG THE CITY OF MCHENRY CENTEGRA AND NIMED AND APPROVING
PAYMENT OF 520,000 TO CENTEGRA FOR RIGHT-OF-WAY RELATED TO CHARLES J MILLER
ROAD/ROUTE 31 INTERSECTION IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT
City Administrator Black stated in 2007 the City entered into an agreement with
Centegra and contributed $950,000 for the extension of Medical Drive and Lawrence Avenue
and to provide connections to Ridgeview Drive and Shamrock Lane. In return the City received
approximately 4.7 acres of right-of-way along Bull Valley Road and Route 31. The right-of-way
was contributed by the City to the County for use in the Charles Miller Road/Route 31
intersection improvements.
City Administrator Blake noted there was a misunderstanding between the City and
Centegra regarding whether the Centegra building situated at the southwest corner of Bull
Valley Road and Route 31 was planned for demolition prior to the construction of the
intersection improvements. The proposed amendment to the 2007 agreement clarifies this
issue. The amendment requires the City to pay Centegra $20,000 for right-of-way related to the
Charles Miller Road/Route 31 intersection project. Centegra has agreed in turn to demolish the
medical building located at the southwest corner of the intersection of Bull Valley Road and
Route 31 no later than December 31, 2011. It is Staffs recommendation to pass an ordinance
authorizing the execution of the First Amendment to the Road Construction Agreement among
the City of McHenry, Centegra and NIMED.

ORDINANCE AMENDING MUNICIPAL CODE CHAPTER 13 ARTICLE II VEHICLE IMPOUNDMENT
Deputy Administrator Martin stated a request was made by Staff to clarify and broaden
the scope of the City's Vehicle Impoundment Ordinance contained in Chapter 13 of the
Municipal Code. The ordinance has been in place for approximately one year and Staff has,
through practical experience, noted some amendments would be desirable. The City Attorney
has provided an ordinance amending the existing vehicle impoundment ordinance. The
amendments would allow seizure of vehicles when they are used in commission of certain
crimes. The amendment also addresses seizure and impoundment when forfeiture proceedings
have been initiated by the City. It is Staffs recommendation to approve an ordinance amending
the City's Vehicle Impoundment section of the Municipal Code as presented.
