City Planner Sheriff gave the Staff Report stating the applicants Denver Cole, LLC (“Contract Purchaser”) and Corporate Disk Company (“Owner of Record”) are requesting approval of a conditional use permit to operate an adult-use licensed cannabis craft-grow, infusion, transportation, and dispensary business. Denver Cole, LLC has applied for 4 adult use cannabis dispensary licenses. They also applied for craft grow, infusion, and transportation licenses in March of 2020. Denver Cole, LLC is under contract to purchase the subject property which contains a 56,000 square foot building - pending approval of applicable zoning requests in addition to the outcome of the state cannabis licensing. The subject property is currently zoned I-1 Industrial. Planner Sheriff explained grow operations will occupy the east half of the building. The dispensary will most likely occupy the west half of the building with design being preliminary. Business operations will include 24/7 security and the applicant anticipates working with the McHenry Police Department on safety and security needs. The applicant also has schedul ed meetings with McHenry County College’s Agriculture Department to partner in creating educational opportunities for students interested in the field. The City is only involved with approval of zoning and issuance of building permits. Planner Sheriff stated the current zoning allows cannabis uses as a conditional use. Staff believes the site which contains a 56,000 square foot building, including 144 parking spaces, is appropriately sized and in substantial conformance with the City’s Off-Street Parking and Loading Requirements. The site is not located within a prohibited zone and staff does not believe the development will generate any adverse impacts. He stated staff believes the proposed use is compatible with the surrounding industri al and commercial entities and staff believes all Conditional Use Permit approval criteria is met and, after further review, does not object to the request as amended to include an additional condition: the property owner shall divide the subject property with a second unit to accommodate the cannabis transportation business once licensing is obtained. Chairman Strach invited questions and/or comments from the Commission. Commissioner Thacker inquired when the building would be purchased.

Mr. Larson stated they have been told that everything is still on track with the state approvals and deadlines. Commissioner Doherty inquired about the hours of operation and storage of trucks. Mr. Larson stated the hours are daily with shifts from 6am -10pm . Mr. Larson explained that all vehicles will be parked inside the building adding there will not be too much traffic as they expect to have only 2-3 vans for transporting. Commissioner Doherty asked fora cliff note version of how daily operations are typically handled. Mr. Wright explained the craft grow operations cultivates product using up to 5000 sf. Extraction of cannabis oil, infusion is to use to put in other products. The dispensary is for sale of product and transportation transports product from one place to another in one trip. Product never stops until reaching the destination and is never stored overnight anywhere. Chairman Strach opened the floor to questions and comments from the audience. Mr. Tom Deale, 4533 Prime Parkway (a neighboring property) asked for a description of the type of security they will have and how much cash will be in the facility. Mr. Wright stated the facility will have manned guards at all times along with full perimeter fencing. The building is extremely secure meeting the State of Illinois security standards, with all doors monitored and locked and manned by a guard, all ingress and egress recorded in real time, and surrounded by outside cameras with video stored on-site and off-site . There is a wired security system to immediately alert Fire, local Police and IL State Police. ID must b e given to enter the building, panic buttons will be installed with direct wiring to the Police. Mr. Larson stated there will be no cash in the building until the event the dispensary is licensed and operating. Chairman Strach closed the public comment portion of the hearing at 8:20 p.m. Planner Sheriff asked the applicants for clarification on whether they were withdrawing their request for a dispensary. Mr. Jersey stated no they would like to add one in the future but it is depending on issuance of licenses in January of 2021. Planner Sheriff explained they would have to go back before the Commission to add anything not used in the first issuance of licenses. He further explained the City has a limit on the number of dispensaries so they could be limited in the future. Mr. Larson stated they would definitely want to use the dispensary license in the future.

Chairman Strach stated Notice of the Public Hearing was published in the Northwest Herald and Notices were mailed to all abutting property owners of record as required by ordinance. The subject property was posted. A Certificate of Publication and Affidavit of Compliance with notice requirements are on file in the City Clerk’s Office. In attendance was Nick Dwyer, Development Manager, Dover Development, 300 Hunter Ave., Suite 200, St. Louis, MO. Mr. Dwyer gave a presentation regarding the proposed developme nt which is proposed on a piece of property just south of the Meijer grocery store across Blake Boulevard. City Planner Sheriff gave the Staff Report stating the applicants are requesting approval of a conditional use permit to operate an assisted living and memory care facility on the subject property. The two-story facility will feature a total of 83 apartments – primarily reserved for assisted living services and a small portion focused on memory care. Other features include restaurant-style dining room, movie theater, spa, salon, physical therapy center, and two open- air private courtyards. The subject property is currently zoned C-5 Highway Commercial District. Planner Sheriff stated the applicant’s request for a conditional use permit to operate an assisted living and memory care facility is in substantial conformance with the City of McHenry Zoning Ordinance as well as the City’s Landscaping and Screening Standards and the City’s Off - Street Parking and Loading requirements. Assisted Living and Memory Care Service Uses are an allowed conditional use in the C-5 Highway Commercial District. The proposed use is harmonious with the surrounding commercial properties. He noted there are no pedestrian accommodations to access the site but the City’s Municipal Code requires the installation of sidewalks as part of a commercial development. Staff is recommending the installation of sidewalk along the north property line of the subject property in addition to an appropriately signed crosswalk that connects to the Meijer site on the northwest corner of the subject property. The developer would need to pay an estimated fee of $28,000 in lieu of installing sidewalks or seek a waiver from City Council. Page 7 of 83 Planning and Zoning Commission April 15, 2020 Page 7 Staff is also in the process of looking into obtaining easements to accommodate future sidewalk installations on the parcels east of the subject property extending the entire length of Blake Boulevard to North Richmond Road. Developers have expressed interest in the parcel directly west of the subject property for high-density residential development. Planner Sheriff stated Staff does not object to the applicants’ request for Approval of a Conditional Use Permit for the operation of an Assisted Living and Memory Care Facility subject to conditions as presented and Staff believes all Conditional Use Permit Approval Criteria have been met. Chairman Strach invited questions and/or comments from the Commission. Commissioner Doherty opined this is a great use for the property. Commissioner Thacker asked for clarification on parking requirements as compared to the applicant’s Yorkville facility. Mr. Dwyer stated they have accounted for lack of parking in Yorkville and will have more at this facility. Commissioner Strach asked for a further definition of types of vehicular traffic and access to the facility. Chairman Strach opened the floor to questions and comments from the audience. There was nobody in attendance who wished to address the Commission regarding this matter. Chairman Strach closed the public comment portion of the hearing at 8:40p.m. Commissioner Doherty inquired what percent of the facility is memory care. Mr. Dwyer stated there will be 83 private apartments and 20 of those will be for memory care in a single story portion of the building to the rear of the property in a secure wing. Commissioner Thacker asked for a timeframe for construction/completion. Mr. Dwyer stated it depends on when they go to and receive approval from City Council. Their intent is to submit plans immediately and hopefully be able to break ground in June or July. Construction typically takes 12-15 months for this type of project. Mr. Dwyer stated there is quite a need for this type of a facility in McHenry County. Motion by Walsh seconded by Thacker to recommend to the City Council with regard to File No. Z-964, approval of a Conditional Use Permit for the operation of an Assisted Living and Memory Care Facility subject to the following conditions: 1.

Page 8 of 83 Planning and Zoning Commission April 15, 2020 Page 8 Roll Call: Vote: 6-ayes: Commissioners Doherty, Lehman, Sobotta, Strach, Walsh, and Thacker. 0-nay, 0-abstained, 1-absent: Gurda. Motion Carried. Chairman Strach closed the Public Hearing regarding File No. Z-964 at 8:55 pm. City of McHenry File No. Z-961 Text Amendments to the Zoning Ordinance including but not limited to Chapter 13: Landscaping and Screening and Chapter 19: Variances. Chairman Strach called the discussion to order at 7:54 p.m. regarding File No Z-961 a request for various text amendments to the City of McHenry Zoning Ordinance including but not limited to Chapter 13: Landscaping and Screening and Chapter 19: Variances. Chairman Strach stated Notice of the Public Hearing was published in the Northwest Herald and A Certificate of Publication is on file in the City Clerk’s Office per ordinance. City Planner Sheriff provided the Commission with the Staff Report regarding this file stating City Staff are in the process of updating various sections of the City of McHenry’s Zoning Ordinance. Various text amendments are proposed to the Landscaping and Screening Standards based on feedback from commercial property owners as well as recent development projects. Research was done on landscaping and screening ordinances from surrounding municipalities including Crystal Lake, Woodstock, and McHenry County and staff also incorporated best management practices identified by the American Planning Association (APA). Staff has also included language within the ordinance to allow developers to creatively develop properties to incorporate best management practices for storm water drainage and green infrastructure. Planner Sheriff further stated the City of McHenry has many commercial properties that have aged and require improvements be made - sometimes at great cost. The City also recognizes the value of our commercial entities and the role they play in making McHenry a great place to live and work. Additional language has been added to allow the Zoning Administrator to waive certain landscaping and screening standards if there are unique site specific circumstances, enforcement would result in extreme financial hardship, or if the intent of the ordinance has been met. The goal is to address existing legal nonconforming commercial properties and to encourage compliance without discouraging development. Ultimately, it would allow city staff to provide quality and responsive customer service to our local businesses and residents while encouraging compliance with our Landscaping and Screening Standards. Staff recommends approval of text amendments to the City of McHenry Zoning Ordinance including but not limited to: Chapter 3: Definitions and Chapter 13: Landscaping and Screening, as presented. In Addition, in regard to Text Amendments including but not limited to Chapter 19: Variances of the City of McHenry Zoning Ordinance, Planner Sheriff stated staff analyzed what zoning requests would be appropriate for an administrative review process in an effort to improve service and not require a public hearing. Staff surveyed and found that Crystal Lake, Woodstock, Lakemoor, and McHenry County have an administrative variation process for residential variances. There Page 9 of 83 Planning and Zoning Commission April 15, 2020 Page 9 has been a total of 67 Applications for Minor Variances since the Zoning Ordinance was approved in 1986. Of the 67 minor variance requests, 64 were approved and 3 were withdrawn or cancelled). Staff believes the City would benefit from allowing staff to process Minor Variance requests administratively, noting that minor variance requests only are applicable to single- family detached or attached dwellings or single-family detached or attached building lots. A summary of the current and proposed administrative variation process was provided and staff recommends approval of text amendments including but not limited to Chapter 19: Variances of the City of McHenry Zoning Ordinance, as presented. There were no questions from the Commissioners. Motion by Walsh , seconded by Doherty, to recommend to the City Council with regard to File No. Z-961, approval of an application for text amendments to the City of McHenry Zoning Ordinance including but not limited to: Chapter 3: Definitions and Chapter 13: Landscaping and Screening and approval of text amendments including but not limited to Chapter 19: Variances of the City of McHenry Zoning Ordinance, as presented, be granted.

Elm Street. Site Information Location and Size of Property The site consists of 1.768 acres, more or less, and is located on the northwest corner of the intersection of W. Elm Street and N. Green Street. Comprehensive Plan Designation Highway Commercial (west) /Historic Downtown (east) Existing Zoning and Land Use The subject property is zoned C-4 Downtown Commercial District; currently vacant. Previously occupied by a small gas station and First Midwest Bank. Adjacent Zoning and Land Use North: RM-2 High Density Multi-Family Residential (Apartments), RS-4 High-Density Single- Family Residential (Single-Family Housing); C-4 Downtown Commercial District (First Midwest Bank, Shepherd Premier Senior Living) South: C-4 Downtown Commercial Dist rict (Commercial) East: C-4 Downtown Commercial District (Commercial/Green Street Park) West: C-5 Highway Commercial District (Fire Station), RM-2 High Density Multi-Family Residential (Vacant) Overview The applicant s, McHenry 3510 LLC & McHenry LFI LLC (Owners of Record), are requesting approval of a conditional use permit to operate an automobile fueling station (gas station) with a convenience store on the currently vacant portion of the First Midwest Bank property. The owners will also operate a convenience store with a taco bar self-service area – popular in southern U.S. States. The project involves the demolition of the vacant First Midwest Bank building and the small gas station. The exterior façade is composed of crimson red and canyon style brick. A 3-foot high masonry wall is proposed along the east side of the subject property to preserve the streetscape sight line along Green Street. Three free standing signs are proposed which include a City of McHenry gateway monument sign along the corner of Elm Street and Richmond Road. Other sign locations include near the southeast corner of site and northwest corner slightly north of the proposed city gateway monument sign. A sign variation will be needed to accommodate the request which will be reviewed by City Council. Page 11 of 83 [PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT Z-965 CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT TO ALLOW FOR THE OPERATION OF AN AUTOMOBILE FUELING STATION] June 17, 2020 Staff Analysis Downtown Design Guidelines. The subject property is located in the Downtown Overlay District and must follow the Downtown Design Guidelines. For new commercial construction, the Downtown Design Guidelines recommend buildings loc ate as close to the front or in line with surrounding development to help preserve the streetscape site line. Given the proposed use in conjunction with the size and configuration of the lot, applying the downtown design guidelines in this instance would be challenging. Staff recommends in lieu of the building locating near the front of the lot, that the applicant install a 3 foot masonry wall along Green Street to help preserve the streetscape site line. The applicants are also installing a variety of landscaping along Green Street, W. Elm Street, and Richmond Road. Staff ha s put together pictures of the landscaping to be used on the project (see attached). The exterior façade is composed of crimson and canyon style brick parapet wall (see attached). The Downtown Design Guidelines recommend brick and wood as preferre d materials – staff believes the proposed exterior appearance complies. Comprehensive Plan Objectives and Policies . Overall, staff believes the proposed development is consistent with the City’s Comprehensive Plan objectives and policies. • Land Use, Objective – Allow a mixture of land uses in appropriate areas to promote responsible growth while providing a high quality of life to the residents. (p. 27) o Policy – “Preserve and expand areas of commercial land use.”  Approval of the applicants’ request would promote the preservation of existing commercial land uses by allowing commercial land use to continue. • Unique Character, Objective – Promote land uses that allow the expansion of services for residents. (p. 28) o Policy – “Locate intense commercial and office uses where they will not negatively affect residential or open space uses.”  The proposed development is located at the intersection of two state routes and is not directly adjacent to other residential properties. Approval of the applicants’ request will not negatively affect residential or open space uses. • Growth, Objective – Encourage and g uide responsible development throughout the City. (p. 29) o Policy – “Promote development that blends with existing development in the area especially if located within a unique sub-area.”  The proposed development is located within the downtown historic district in addition to the Tax Increment Financing (TIF) District. Although the proposed development is not consistent with the Downtown Subarea Plan, a gas station and convenience store are two uses that are currently missing within the subarea. Page 12 of 83 [PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT Z-965 CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT TO ALLOW FOR THE OPERATION OF AN AUTOMOBILE FUELING STATION] June 17, 2020 Staff believes the proposed development will open up the site and increase foot traffic in the downtown. • Growth, Objective – Encourage redevelopment of older non-historic properties in the City especially within the downtown area. (p. 29) o Policy – “Work with developers so that the redevelopment improves the site or surrounding conditions, including; access, landscaping, lighting, safety, and aesthetics.”  The developer has responded to initial site plan review comments by city staff and have added additional items such as the 3 foot masonry wall to help preserve the streetscape site line and relocated the outdoor seating area to the east side facing Green Street. Additionally, t he proposed redevelopment will open-up the hard corner of Green and Elm and remove the mass the existing building presents in a downtown pedestrian-oriented setting. Core -Downtown Sub-Area Plan. The proposed gas station and convenience store is not in compliance with the Core-Downtown Sub-Area Plan’s recommendation for service -oriented use. However, staff does not believe the existing building can be repurposed to suit other service-oriented needs without significant investment. The design and size of the building is prohibitive of allowing other uses to adaptively repurpose the site without great expense. This was explored at the beginning of the project however the broker could not locate a buyer for the building which would make the investment to adaptively reuse the building as a service-oriented, residential use or combination. Economic Development Plan & Strategy. Staff believes the proposed development is consistent with the City’s Economic Development Plan & Strategy. The demolition of the structure and site work needed to be completed before construction are estimated to be $827,900.00. The city is working on an agreement to cover the cost of the demolition through sales tax rebates over a period of 8 to 10 years. • Economic Development Strategy - Goal 1.0: Create a Vibrant Downtown. The First Midwest Bank property has sat vacant for approximately 4 years. Discussions with realtors have indicated the cost of demolition and the risk associated with establishing a new retail or service use are not economically practical. Staff believes the proposed landscaping and other features will help beautify this section of the downtown. Staff believes the proposed development will have a positive impact on property values and increase foot traffic. • Economic Develo pment Strategy - Goal 3.0: Enhance the Existing Retail Base The City of McHenry does not have a gas station/convenience store located within the core downtown area. Staff identified Algonquin, Crystal Lake, Fox Lake, Hebron, Johnsburg, and Woodstock (two a ctive, one closed) as municipalities that have a gas station(s) located within their downtown. Additionally, the Village of Cary, Harvard, Huntley, Lakemoor, and Richmond Page 13 of 83 [PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT Z-965 CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT TO ALLOW FOR THE OPERATION OF AN AUTOMOBILE FUELING STATION] June 17, 2020 have a gas station(s) located within walking distance of their downtown. The downtown is currently without a general convenience store with the closing of Downtown Food & Liquor. Staff believes the proposed development will help fill a gap in commercial services.

T raffic Impact Study . The developers were required by the City to provide a traffic impact study for the proposal. The traffic impact study found that site-generated traffic will have limited impact on traffic flow. See conclusion of traffic impact study (attached) for more information. Staff Conclusion and Recommendation In summary, staff believes the proposed development conforms with the City’s Downtown Design Guidelines, Comprehensive Plan, and Economic Development Strategy. The site is located within the Historic Downtown District but is not a landmarked building. The site is also located within the Tax Increment Financing (TIF) District and is currently generating minimal property tax revenue but not Page 14 of 83 [PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT Z-965 CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT TO ALLOW FOR THE OPERATION OF AN AUTOMOBILE FUELING STATION] June 17, 2020 positively impacting adjacent property values while remaining vacant. The McHenry Core-D owntown Subarea Plan recommends the site be repurposed for other uses. However, discussions with realtors have indicated the size of the structure combined with the layout of the interior make adaptive reuse of the structure for another service-oriented use not economically practical. Sta ff identified Algonquin, Crystal Lake, Fox Lake, Hebron, Johnsburg, and Woodstock (two active, one closed) as municipalities that have a gas station(s) located within their downtown. The developers have worked with city staff to provide landscaping that exceed the requirements of the City of McHenry Zoning Ordinance including the installation of a 3-foot masonry wall along Green Street to preserve the streetscape site line. The traffic impact study did not indicate any adverse impacts on traffic flow. With the closing of Downtown Food & Liquor, the addition of a convenience store and gas station will be beneficial for residents living nearby. Staff believes the demolition of the building will provide better accessibility for residents that park in the north parking lot to access the downtown. Staff does not object to the applicants’ request and recommends approval. Staff Recommendation Prior to Public Hearing : Approval If the Planning & Zoning Commission finds the proposal to meet the approval criteria for Conditional Uses in the Zoning Ordinance (§11-15-5) then staff recommends: Motion to approve a Conditional Use Permit for the operation of an automobile fueling station on the subject property subject to the following conditions: 1.The development shall be in substantial conformance with the site plan with date revised 5/5/20, landscape plan dated 4/15/20, and building elevations dated 5/6/20. 2.The property owner shall install landscape screening in the northeast corner of the north-most parking lot. 3.The property owner shall be responsible for replacing any landscaped screening that is damaged or destroyed. 4.The accessory building in the north-most parking lot shall be removed prior to the issuance of a certificate of occupancy. 5.All other federal, state, and local laws shall be met. By a pproving said motion, I agree with staff comments identified in the staff report that the approval criteria for conditional uses have been met. (End motion) Approval Criteria for Conditional Use (§11-15-5): A.Traffic. The traffic impact study indicated the proposed development will have minimal impact. B.Environmental Nuisance Staff does not believe the development will generate any adverse environmental nuisances. C.Neighborhood Character Staff does not believe the development will negatively impact the surrounding neighborhood character and will have a positive impact on property values. Page 15 of 83 [PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT Z-965 CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT TO ALLOW FOR THE OPERATION OF AN AUTOMOBILE FUELING STATION] June 17, 2020 D.Public Services and Facilities The site already has access to City Water and Sanitary Sewer. E.Public Safety and Health Staff does not believe the development will impose any adverse impact on the public health, safety, and welfare of the general public. F.Other Factors Staff believes the development will help meet the existing demand for a convenience store and gas station.

Please respond to each of these conditions as it relates to your request. 1.Traffic Any adverse impact of types or volumes of traffic flow not otherwise typical in the zoning district has been minimized. There is no adverse impact of different types of traffic flow that doesn’t already exist in the zoning district- we have attached a traffic study by KLOA. Onsite traffic will have 4 ingress/egress points -with 2 existing ingress egress points being eliminated at the 3522 property. 2.Environmental Nuisance Any adverse effects of noise, glare, odor, dust, waste disposal, blockage of light or air, or other adverse environmental effects of a type or degree not characteristic of permitted uses in the zoning district have been appropriately controlled. The site design blends with the surrounding neighborhood through utilization of landscaping and landscape walls. Convenience Store which will have food service and fuel station will front Elm Street minimizing any noise, order, dust and glare. 3.Neighborhood Character The proposed use will fit harmoniously with the existing natural or man-made character of its surroundings and with permitted uses in the zoning district. The use will not have undue deleterious effect on the environmental quality, property values, or neighborhood character existing in the area or normally associated with permitted uses in the district. The proposed use is an expansion of a prior use of one of the 2 lots comprising the property. In addition to the fuel station, the development will include a the convenience store with restaurant food service within the store; additionally outdoor seating is planned for the east side of the store behind the landscaped brick. The nearest surrounding neighbors are a financial institution/commercial business and high density residential along Pearl – it should be noted that the existing parking lot nearest to Pearl will remain a parking lot. Page 32 of 83 FORM C Page 2 of 2 4. Public Services and Facilities The proposed use will not require existing community facilities or services to a degree disproportionate to that normally expected of permitted uses in the district, nor generate disproportionate demand for new services or facilities, in such a way as to place undue burdens upon existing development in the area. The proposed Fuel station and convenience store will not require any disproportionate facilities or services and will not place undue burdens upon existing developments in the area – again prior uses included a financial institution and fuel station. 5. Public Safety and Health The proposed use will not be detrimental to the safety or health of the employees, patrons, or visitors associated with the use nor of the general public in the vicinity. The proposed fuel station and convenience store is a national chain and does not pose a detriment to the safety or health of employees, patrons or visitors. 6. Other Factors The proposed use is in harmony with all other elements of compatibility pertinent to the Conditional Use and its particular location.

Introduction This report summarizes the methodologies, results, and findings of a traffic impact study conducted by Kenig, Lindgren, O’Hara, Aboona, Inc. (KLOA, Inc.) for a proposed 7-Eleven fuel station to be located in McHenry, Illinois. The site, which contains First Midwest Bank, a vacant automotive repair building, and a surface parking lot, is located in the northeast quadrant of the intersection of Elm Street (IL Route 120) and Richmond Road (IL Route 31). As proposed, the southern portion of the site will be redeveloped with a 7-Eleven fuel station providing 16 fueling positions and an approximately 4,500 square-foot convenience store. The northern portion of the site will continue to provide a surface parking lot. Access to the fuel station will be provided via a three-quarter access drive off Richmond Road, a right-in/right-out access drive off Elm Street, a full movement access drive off Green Street, and a via a cross access connection to the full movement access drive off Pearl Street that serves the surface parking lot . The purpose of this study was to examine background traffic conditions, assess the impact that the proposed fuel station will have on traffic conditions in the area, and determine if any roadway or access improvements are necessary to accommodate the traffic generated by the proposed fuel station. Figure 1 shows the location of the site in relation to the area roadway system. Figure 2 shows an aerial view of the site. The sections of this report present the following: x Existing roadway conditions x A description of the proposed fuel station x Directional distribution of the fuel station traffic x Vehicle trip generation for the fuel station x Future traffic conditions including access to the fuel station x Traffic analyses for the weekday morning and weekday evening peak hours x Recommendations with respect to adequacy of the site access and adjacent roadway system Trafficcapacity analyses wereconducted for the weekday morning and weekday evening peak hours for the following conditions: 1. Existing Conditions – Analyzes the capacity of the existing roadway system using existing peak hour traffic volumes in the surrounding area. 2. No-Build Conditions – Analyzes the capacity of the existing roadway system using existing peak hour traffic volumes increased by an ambient area growth factor not attributable to any particular development. 3. Projected Conditions – Analyzes the capacity of the future roadway system using the projected traffic volumes that include the existing traffic volumes, ambient area growth not attributable to any particular development, and the net increase in traffic estimated to be generated by the proposed development.

Existing Conditions Existing transportation conditions in the vicinity of the site were documented based on field visits conducted by KLOA, Inc. in order to obtain a database for projecting future conditions. The following provides a description of the geographical location of the site, physical characteristics of the area roadway system including lane usage and traffic control devices, and existing peak hour traffic volumes. Site Location The site, which currently contains a two-story First Midwest Bank building, a vacant auto repair shop, and a surface parking lot, is located in the northeast corner of the intersection of Elm Street with Richmond Road. Land uses in the vicinity of the site include St. Mary Catholic Church and McHenry Township Fire Protection District to the west and Veteran’s Memorial Park to the north. Existing Roadway System Characteristics The characteristics of the existing roadways near the site are described below and illustrated in Figure 3. Elm Street (Illinois Route 120) is an east-west other principal arterial roadway that generally provides two lanes in each direction in the vicinity of the site. At its signalized intersection with Richmond Road, Elm Street provides dual left-turn lanes and two through lanes on the eastbound approach. The westbound approach provides a through lane and a combined through/right-turn lane. Additionally, Elm Street provides a standard style crosswalk on the east leg of this intersection as well as push buttons and pedestrian countdown timers. At its signalized intersection with Green Street, Elm Street provides an exclusive left-turn lane, a through lane, and a combined through/right-turn lane on both approaches. Additionally, Elm Street provides standard style crosswalks on the east and west legs of this intersection as well as push buttons and pedestrian countdown timers. At its unsignalized intersection with the First Midwest Bank access drive, Elm Street provides a combined through/left-turn lane and a combined through/right-turn lane on both approaches. Elm Street is under the jurisdiction of the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT), is designated as a Strategic Regional Arterial (SRA), and carries an Annual Average Daily Traffic (AADT) volume of 22,900 vehicles east of Richmond Road. Elm Street has a posted speed limit of 30 miles per hour. Richmond Road (Illinois Route 31) is a north-south other principal arterial roadway that generally provides two lanes in each direction in the vicinity of the site. At its signalized intersection with Elm Street, Richmond Road provides dual right-turn lanes and an exclusive left-turn lane on the southbound approach. At its signalized intersection with Pearl Street, Richmond Road provides a through lane and a combined through/right-turn lane on the northbound approach. The southbound approach provides an exclusive left-turn lane and two through lanes. Additionally, Richmond Road provides a high-visibility crosswalk on the north leg of this intersection as well as push buttons and pedestrian countdown timers.

The counts were conducted during the weekday morning (7:00 A.M. to 9:00 A.M.) and weekday evening (4:00 P.M. to 6:00 P.M.) peak periods at the following intersections: x Elm Street with Richmond Road x Elm Street with Green Street x Richmond Road with Pearl Street x Green Street with Pearl Street x Elm Street with First Midwest Bank Access Drive x Richmond Road with First Midwest Bank Access Drive The results of the traffic counts show that the peak hours of traffic generally occur between 7:00 A.M. and 8:00 A.M. during the morning peak period and between 4:15 P.M. and 5:15 P.M. during the evening peak period. Copies of the traffic count summary sheets are included in the Appendix. To determine Year 2020 base traffic conditions, the 2016 traffic counts were increased by an annually compounded regional growth factor. Figure 4 illustrates the Year 2020 based traffic volumes. Crash Analysis KLOA, Inc. obtained crash data1 from IDOT for the most recent available five years (2014 to 2018) for the intersections of Elm Street with Richmond Road, Elm Street with Green Street, Richmond Road with Pearl Street, and Green Street with Pearl Street. The crash data for the intersections are summarized in Tables 1 through 4, respectively. A review of the crash data indicated that no fatalities were reported at any of the studied intersections during the review period. 1 IDOT DISCLAIMER: The motor vehicle crash data referenced herein was provided by the Illinois Department of Transportation. Any conclusions drawn from analysis of the aforementioned data are the sole responsibility of the data recipient(s). Additionally, for coding years 2015 to present, the Bureau of Data Collection uses the exact latitude/longitude supplied by the investigating law enforcement agency to locate crashes. Therefore, location data may vary in previous years since data prior to 2015 was physically located by bureau personnel.

Traffic Characteristics of the Proposed Fuel Station In order to properly evaluate future traffic conditions in the surrounding area, it was necessary to determine the traffic characteristics of the proposed fuel station, including the directional distribution and volumes of traffic that it will generate. Proposed Site and Development Plan As proposed, the site will be redeveloped with a 7-Eleven fuel station with approximately 16 fueling positions and an approximately 4,500 square-foot convenience store. The northern portion of the site will continue to provide a surface parking lot but will be modified to provide a cross access connection to the fuel station. Access to the site will be provided via the following access drives: x A right-in/right-out access drive off Elm Street that will be located approximately 200 feet east of Richmond Road. This access drive will provide one inbound lane and one outbound lane with turning movements restricted to right-turns only via a raised triangular median. Outbound movements will be under stop sign control. This access drive will replace the existing full movement access drive off Elm Street serving First Midwest Bank that is located 125 feet east of Richmond Road. The removal of the full access drive will improve the traffic flow on Elm Street. x A three-quarter access drive off Richmond Road that will be located approximately 200 feet north of Elm Street. This access drive will provide one inbound lane permitting northbound right-turns in and southbound left-turns in and one outbound lane that will be physically restricted to right-turns out via a raised triangular median. Outbound movements will be under stop sign control. This access drive will replace the existing full movement access drive at this location that serves First Midwest Bank. It should be noted that Richmond Road currently provides a raised barrier median except at the location of this access drive where it has been modified to be mountable and allow full access. x A full movement access drive off Green Street that will be located approximately 215 feet north of Elm Street. This access drive will provide one inbound land and one outbound lane. Outbound movements should be under stop sign control. It should be noted that this access drive will replace the existing access drive serving First Midwest Bank and will result in the elimination of the single inbound (westbound) travel lane that connects to the bank drive-through lanes, thus reducing the overall width of the driveway. x The full movement access drive on Pearl Street located approximately 170 feet west of Green Street that serves the surface parking lot will be maintained as part of the proposed development. This access drive provides one inbound lane and one outbound lane. It should be noted that, as part of the proposed development, cross access will continue to be provided to the First Midwest Bank drive-through lanes and drive-through lobby that is located in the southeast corner of the intersection of Richmond Road with Pearl Street. A site plan depicting the proposed fuel station layout and access is included in the Appendix. el Station Page 64 of 83 Proposed 7-Eleven Fuel Station McHenry, Illinois 12 Directional Distribution The directions from which patrons and employees will approach and depart the site were estimated based on existing travel patterns, as determined from the traffic counts. Figure 5 illustrates the directional distribution of the new fuel station-generated traffic. Peak Hour Traffic Volumes The number of peak hour trips estimated to be generated by the proposed fuel station was based on vehicle trip generation rates contained in Trip Generation Manual, 10th Edition, published by the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE). The “Super Convenience Market/Gas Station” (Land-Use Code 960) rate was used for the vehicle fueling positions and convenience store. Copies of the trip generation worksheets are included in the Appendix. It is important to note that surveys conducted by ITE have shown that approximately 60 percent of trips made to fuel centers are diverted from the existing traffic on the roadway system. This is particularly true during the weekday morning and evening peak hours when traffic is diverted from the home-to-work and work-to-home trips (pass-by traffic). As such, the new site traffic to be generated by the fuel station was reduced by 60 percent to account for pass-by traffic. Table 5 summarizes the trips projected to be generated by the proposed development.

Projected Traffic Conditions The total projected traffic volumes include the existing traffic volumes, increase in background traffic due to growth, and the traffic estimated to be generated by the proposed subject fuel station. Fuel Station Traffic Assignment The estimated weekday morning and evening peak hour traffic volumes that will be generated by the proposed fuel station were assigned to the roadway system in accordance with the previously described directional distribution (Figure 5). Figure 6 illustrates the traffic assignment of the total new trips. As previously indicated, a 60 percent pass-by reduction was applied. Figure 7 illustrates the traffic assignment of the pass-by trips. Background (No-Build) Traffic Conditions The Year 2020 base traffic volumes (Figure 4) were increased by a regional growth factor to account for the increase in existing traffic related to regional growth in the area (i.e., not attributable to any particular planned development). Based on ADT projections provided by the Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning (CMAP) in a letter dated April 1, 2020 the existing traffic volumes are projected to increase by a compound annual growth rate of 0.7 percent per year. As such, traffic volumes were increased by approximately 4.1 percent total to represent Year 2026 background conditions (one-year buildout plus five years). A copy of the CMAP projections letter is included in the Appendix. The Year 2026 no-build traffic volumes, which include the Year 2020 base traffic volumes increased by the regional growth factor, are illustrated in Figure 8. Total Projected Traffic Volumes The fuel station-generated traffic (Figures 6 and 7) was added to the Year 2020 base traffic volumes accounting for ambient background growth (Figure 8) to determine the Year 2026 total projected traffic volumes, as shown in Figure 9.

Traffic Analysis and Recommendations The following provides an evaluation conducted for the weekday morning and weekday evening peak hours. The analysis includes conducting capacity analyses to determine how well the roadway system and access drives are projected to operate and whether any roadway improvements or modifications are required. Traffic Analyses Roadway and adjacent or nearby intersection analyses were performed for the weekday morning and weekday evening peak hours for the Year 2020 base, Year 2026 no-build, and Year 2026 total projected traffic volumes. The traffic analyses were performed using the methodologies outlined in the Transportation Research Board’s Highway Capacity Manual (HCM), 6th Edition and analyzed using the Synchro/SimTraffic 10 software. The analysis for the traffic-signal controlled intersections were accomplished using actual cycle lengths and phasings to determine the average overall vehicle delay and levels of service. The analyses for the unsignalized intersections determine the average control delay to vehicles at an intersection. Control delay is the elapsed time from a vehicle joining the queue at a stop sign (includes the time required to decelerate to a stop) until its departure from the stop sign and resumption of free flow speed. The methodology analyzes each intersection approach controlled by a stop sign and considers traffic volumes on all approaches and lane characteristics. The ability of an intersection to accommodate traffic flow is expressed in terms of level of service, which is assigned a letter from A to F based on the average control delay experienced by vehicles passing through the intersection. The Highway Capacity Manual definitions for levels of service and the corresponding control delay for signalized intersections and unsignalized intersections are included in the Appendix of this report. Summaries of the traffic analysis results showing the level of service and overall intersection delay (measured in seconds) for the existing and total projected conditions are presented in Tables 6 through 11. A discussion of each intersection follows. Summary sheets for the capacity analyses are included in the Appendix.

Elm Street with Richmond Road The results of the capacity analysis indicate that overall this intersection currently operates at Level of Service (LOS) C during the weekday morning peak hour and LOS D during the weekday evening peak hour. The eastbound and southbound approaches currently operate at an acceptable LOS D or better during both peak hours. In addition, the westbound approach currently operates at LOS C during the weekday morning peak hour and LOS F during the weekday evening peak hour. Under Year 2026 no-build conditions, overall this intersection will continue to operate at the existing levels of service with increases in delay of less than one second during the weekday morning peak hour and approximately nine seconds during the weekday evening peak hour. All of the approaches are projected to continue operating at existing levels of service during the peak hours. Under Year 2026 total projected conditions, overall this intersection will operate at LOS C during the weekday morning peak hour and LOS E during the weekday evening peak hour with increases in delay of less than one second during the weekday morning peak hour and approximately six seconds during the weekday evening peak hour over no-build conditions. It should be noted that the eastbound left-turn movements are projected to operate at LOS F during the weekday evening peak hour with increases in delay of approximately ten seconds over no build conditions. Additionally, the westbound approach will continue to operate at LOS C during the weekday morning peak hour and LOS F during the weekday evening peak hour with increases in delay of approximately one second and approximately nine seconds, respectively, over no-build conditions. It should be noted that the results of the capacity analyses are primarily the result of the existing traffic volumes increased by the regional growth factor as the proposed development is only projected to increase the volume of traffic traversing this intersection by approximately two percent during the weekday morning peak hour and approximately one percent during the weekday evening peak hour. As such, the proposed development-generated traffic will have a limited impact on the operations of this intersection. Page 79 of 83 Proposed 7-Eleven Fuel Station McHenry, Illinois 27 Elm Street with Green Street The results of the capacity analysis indicate that overall this intersection currently operates at LOS C during the weekday morning and evening peak hours. The eastbound and westbound approaches currently operate at LOS B or better during both peak hours. In addition, the northbound and southbound approaches operate at an acceptable LOS D during both peak hours. Under Year 2026 no-build conditions, this intersection will continue to operate at the same existing levels of service with increases in delay of approximately one second. The eastbound and westbound will continue to operate at the existing levels of service with increases in delay of approximately two seconds or less during both peak hours. Additionally, the northbound and southbound approach will continue to operate at LOS D with increases in delay of less than one second during both peak hours. Under Year 2026 total projected conditions, this intersection will continue to operate at LOS C during both peak hours with increases in delay of approximately one second over no-build conditions. The westbound approach will operate at LOS A during the weekday morning peak hour and LOS C during the weekday evening peak hour with increases in delay of approximately one second and three seconds, respectively, over no-build conditions. All other approaches will operate at the same levels of service during both peak hours with increases in delay of less than one second over no-build conditions. As such, the proposed development-generated traffic will have a limited impact on the operations of this intersection. Richmond Road with Pearl Street The results of the capacity analysis indicate that overall this intersection currently operates at LOS B during the weekday morning peak hour and LOS C during the weekday evening peak hour. The westbound approach currently operates at LOS D during the weekday morning peak hour and LOS E during the weekday evening peak hour. However, this level of service is expected when a local roadway minor road intersects a major road such as Richmond Road, given the limited amount of green time allocated to the minor approach. In addition, the northbound approach currently operates at LOS B during the weekday morning peak hour and LOS D during the weekday evening peak hour. The southbound approach currently operates at LOS B or better during both peak hours. Under Year 2026 no-build conditions, overall this intersection will operate at LOS B during the weekday morning peak hour and LOS D during the weekday evening peak hour with increases in delay of less than one second during the weekday morning peak hour and approximately four seconds during the weekday evening peak hour. All approaches will operate at the same existing levels of service during both peak hours with increases in delay of approximately eight seconds or less. Under Year 2026 total projected conditions, overall this intersection will operate at the same levels of service during both peak hours with increases in delay of less than one second over no-build conditions. All approaches will continue to operate at the same levels of service during both peak hours with increases in delay of less than one second over no-build conditions. As such, the proposed development-generated traffic will have a limited impact on the operations of this intersection.

All approaches currently operate at LOS B or better during both peak hours. Under Year 2026 no-build conditions, overall this intersection will operate at LOS B during the weekday morning and evening peak hours with increases in delay of less than one second. All approaches will continue to operate at LOS B or better with increases in delay of less than one second during both peak hours. Under Year 2026 total projected conditions, overall this intersection will continue to operate at LOS B during the weekday morning and evening peak hours. In addition, all approaches will operate at LOS B or better during both peak hours. As such, the proposed development-generated traffic will have a limited impact on the operations of this intersection. Elm Street with Proposed Right-In/Right-Out Access Drive The results of the capacity analysis indicate that the southbound approach will operate at LOS B during the weekday morning peak hour and LOS C during the weekday evening peak hour. Based on the results of the simulation, the southbound approach will experience 95th percentile queues of approximately 74 feet during the weekday morning peak hour and approximately 126 feet (five to six vehicle lengths) during the weekday evening peak hour. It should be noted that the restriction of left-turn inbound and outbound movements at the Elm Street access drive will reduce the impact of site-generated traffic on eastbound through movements. As such, this access drive is adequate in accommodating the traffic to be generated by the proposed 7-Eleven fuel station, will ensure efficient and flexible access is provided, and will reduce the traffic load experienced at other study area intersections. Richmond Road with Proposed Three-Quarter Access Drive The results of the capacity analysis indicate that the westbound approach will operate at LOS B during the weekday morning peak hour and LOS C during the weekday evening peak hour. Additionally, the southbound left-turn movements will operate at LOS B or better during both peak hours. Based on the results of the simulation, the westbound approach will experience 95th percentile queues of approximately 18 feet during the weekday morning peak hour and approximately 35 feet during the weekday evening peak hour. It should be noted that Richmond Road currently provides a raised barrier median except at the location of this access drive, where it has been modified to be mountable and allow full access. Additionally, the restriction of left- turn outbound movements at the Richmond Road access drive will reduce the impact of site- generated traffic on southbound through movements. As such, this access drive is adequate in accommodating the traffic to be generated by the proposed 7-Eleven fuel station, will ensure efficient and flexible access is provided, and will reduce the traffic load experienced at other study area intersections. Page 81 of 83 Proposed 7-Eleven Fuel Station McHenry, Illinois 29 Green Street with Proposed Full Movement Access Drive The results of the capacity analysis indicate that the eastbound approach will operate at LOS B during the weekday morning and evening peak hours. The northbound left-turn movements will operate at LOS A during both peak hours. Based on the results of the simulation, the eastbound approach will experience 95th percentile queues of approximately 51 feet during the weekday morning peak hour and approximately 46 feet during the weekday evening peak hour. As such, this access drive is adequate in accommodating the traffic to be generated by the proposed 7-Eleven fuel station, will ensure efficient and flexible access is provided, and will reduce the traffic load experienced at other study area intersections and access drives. Pearl Street with Proposed Full Movement Access Drive The results of the capacity analysis indicate that the northbound approach will operate at LOS B during the weekday morning and evening peak hours. The westbound left-turn movements will operate at LOS A during both peak hours. As such, the proposed full movement access drive will be adequate in accommodating the traffic to be generated by the development. Based on the results of the simulation, the northbound approach will experience 95th percentile queues of one to two vehicles during both peak hours. As such, this access drive is adequate in accommodating the traffic to be generated by the proposed 7-Eleven fuel station, will ensure efficient and flexible access is provided, and will reduce the traffic load experienced at other study area intersections and access drives.
