In attendance were Brian Wente, Graham Enterprise, Inc. 750 Bunker Court, Suite 100, Vernon Hills, IL 60061, Matt Ackerman and Chris Kalischefski, both of WT Group, 2675 Pratum Ave, Hoffman Estates, IL 60192. Mr. Kalischefski stated that Graham Enterprise Inc., plans to raze the west portion of the site at 5301 Bull Valley Road. He stated they plan to increase the gasoline dispensers from four to six pumps. He stated that the facility would be nearly new including underground storage tanks and piping. He stated they are in compliance with the stringent requirements of the State of IL and they are using the latest and greatest technology to ensure safety. Mr. Kalischefski stated the building would be just over 5200 square foot. He stated because of the uniqueness of the property they are proposing a sign that could be viewed from all directions. Mr. Kalischefski stated they are asking for a variance to the landscaping requirements due to the hardship to the business with respect to customers entering the building. He stated that they are not eliminating the landscaping and stated that they are going to move the materials that would be used at the outskirts of the property and opined that this would make the area more attractive. Mr. Kalischefski stated they are also requesting a variance for lighting for safety for the task related canopy area. He stated the LED lighting is not over national standard but the city standard. He stressed the safety aspect of his request. Mr. Kalischefski opined that the sophisticated urban design of the building makes it aesthetically pleasing. He stated they are proposing a seating area with an arbor/trellis that will be surrounded by landscaping. He stated they are only utilizing one fifth of the density allowed on the property and they would like a conditional use permit with the six requirements stated. He stated there is no environmental nuisance and opined that the building would enhance the neighborhood character. He stated the car wash would be removed and he opined that the new facility is a safe, harmonious use of the property and still preserves the rights of the neighbors. He stated zoning is consistent with C-1 Convenience Commercial. Director of Economic Development Martin stated the subject property has been utilized as a gas station and the owner wishes to raze the site and rebuild and rebrand the station. It is located Planning and Zoning Commission June 13, 2018 Page 3 along a major state route and within the middle of numerous businesses at a major intersection near many residences. The applicants are proposing to construct a Fueling center which will include: 12 fueling positions (6 pumps) with 5,213 square foot convenience store with accompanying overhang (which can protrude into the required yard). Director of Economic Development Martin stated the applicant is requesting a Conditional Use Permit to allow an automobile fueling station. Access points will not change. Two access points are proposed, one off of Crystal Lake Road and one off of Bull Valley Road. This will not change from what exists now. A traffic study was completed and concludes there is plenty of capacity and there will be no adverse impacts as a result of the proposed redevelopment. He opined that this is a major enhancement to area and further stated it does not change what exists. Director of Economic Development Martin stated trip generation to the proposed gas station/convenience store is directly proportional to the number of fueling positions the gas station offers. It should be noted, however, a large percentage of trips are generated from pass - by traffic or traffic already going past the site en route to another primary destination (60%). Director of Economic Development Martin stated he thought this figure was more in the rate of 80-90 percent. Director of Economic Development Martin stated the applicant is seekingthe following variances from the zoning ordinance: • Variance to eliminate the front foundation plantings; • Variance to exceed the on -site lighting requirement. Director of Economic Development Martin stated the applicant is requesting a variance from the requirement to do front foundation plantings for the purpose of site safety. The operator believes this, along with the enhanced lighting will make the site safer for its customers. Staff does not have a problem with this variance. The applicant is depicting landscaping on all other sides of the building. Safety is valid request for variance. Director of Economic Development Martin stated the applicant is requesting a variance to exceed the maximum number of foot candles of lighting, speccally under the canopy. The ordinance allows 40, and the applicant has upwards of 60 plus, however this is strictly limited to under the canopy. Due to the concentration of the LED lighting the lighting levels around the remainder of the site are much lower and very low at the property lines. Staff does not have a concern with this. Staff believes with the switch to LED lighting the site will have more of a uniform appearance from a lighting perspective and does not believe this will adversely impact neighboring sites. Variance is out of date, 60 is not that much higher. Led does not have much spill over. Director of Economic Development Martin opined this is an enhancement of property. Planning and Zoning Commission June 13, 2018 Page 4 Director of Economic Development Martin stated that Staff is recommending Approval of the Conditional Use Permit to allow an automobile fueling station subjectto the following conditions: • The project is developed in accordance with the Improvement Plans prepared by W-T Engineering Group dated 5/18/18 and consisting of ten pages; • Sidewalks shall be installed along Bull Valley Road and Crystal Lake Road along the entire frontage of the property; Staff finds the requirements set forth in Table 31 have been met.

Approval of a Variance from the Outdoor Lighting Regulations to allow outdoor lighting in conformance with the plan submitted by WT Engineering. Staff finds the requirements set forth in Table 32 of the Zoning Ordinance have been met. Chairman Strach invited questions and/or commentsfrom the Commission. Commissioner Miller stated she did not see the plans for sidewalks on Crystal Lake and Bull Valley Roads. Mr. Kalischefski stated that because of the property layout and large swale, there is not room for a sidewalk to the south. They would consider a sidewalk along Crystal Lake Road with an agreement from the City to maintain since that would need to be on the Graham property. Director of Economic Development Martin stated that there is a city ordinance that all commercial properties have a sidewalk but further stated that there may be alternatives. Discussion ensured regarding sidewalk placement. Chairman Strach opined a solution could be found between Staff and the petitioner. Commissioner Sobotta inquired if standard lighting had presented any incidents. Mr. Kalischefski stated that there were none. Mr. Wente concurred. Chairman Strach opined the increase was due to the change from florescent to LED. Director of Economic Development Martin stated it is also energy and cost effective, long term. Commissioner Doherty inquired about the building texture. Mr. Kalischefski stated there are three different materials that are being proposed; stone panels, smooth Aluminum Composite Material —which is clean, smooth and insulated and a stucco type. He further stated this is around all four sides. Commissioner Doherty inquired if there would be a curb around the building. Mr. Kalischefski stated there would be a transitional, curb free area with safety devices to stop cars from going through the building. Commissioner Doherty inquired how many tables were on the side. Mr. Kalischefski stated there would be three tables on the side. Commissioner Thacker inquired if they had this structure in another area or if this would be a first. Mr. Kalischefski stated this would be the first of its type. Commissioner Thacker inquired if Planning and Zoning Commission one 13, 2018 Page 5 once City Council approval is given what the timeframe for completion would be. Mr. Kalischefski stated as soon as possible, by the end of the year. Commissioner Miller inquired if this would be a 24 hour per day operation. Mr. Wente stated it would be. Chairman Strach inquired if it was currently. Mr. Wente stated no but there have been requests for early morning hours. Commissioner Gurda opined that the appearance would be an improvement.

Chairman Strach closed the public comment portion of the hearing 8:14 p.m. Commissioner Walsh inquired if the variance would be changed to reflect the front landscaping.

He stated that this is a Downtown McHenry Loop which emanates from each of the City's three downtown areas out to the rest of the City, tying in Main Street with Riverside Drive and Green Street. He stated the blown up map shows the mixed use category. Director of Economic Development Martin stated that approximately 5.8 acres know as the King farm is for sale. He stated the focus of this meeting would be on the western part of city. The area depicted as the "purple bubble" is not within the city limits.

He stated that McHenry County has two agricultural categories which are used as a holding zones that can be rezoned when someone comes in. Director of Economic Development Martin would like to complete the plan and hold open public meetings prior to bringing the updated maps to City Council. Director of Economic Development Martin stated he also included the Riverwalk preliminary design. Chairman Strach stated he would like to help Commissioner Gurda catch up to the discussion and stated the Commission would like to tie the downtown areas together with the proposed bike loop. He stated the McHenry County Conservation Districts' trail stops and the goal is to extend that trail down Main Street, cross over IL Route 31 down to Rotary Park and as Riverwalk is finished, catch the edge of the Riverwalk east down to Riverside Drive pedestrian bridge, extending down Riverside Drive to McCullom Lake Road west bound crossing over IL Route 31 and catch up to the Prairie Path at Petersen Park. Chairman Strach opined the "Loop" would bring everything together. Discussion ensued regarding dangerous crossings at Main Street and 11 Route 31 and McCullom Lake Road and 11 Route 31. The commissioners were in Planning and Zoning Commission June 13, 2018 Page 7 agreement that this is an issue that would need to be addressed. Chairman Strach opined if the path becomes highly usable then it would be beneficial to go either over or under IL Route 31. Commissioner Miller inquired the length of the Loop in total. Chairman Strach stated he would measure the length and report back to the Commission. Economic Development Coordinator Wolf stated that she attended the McHenry County Active Communities Work Group and stated that their goal is safety education for bike path use. She stated Chicago drivers are more aware and that there is an initiative to have county -wide drivers become more safe and aware of bike traffic. Commissioner Miller opined that the Loop could tie the area together with no building and little expense. Director of Economic Development Martin asked commissioners to look at the city boundaries on the map. He stated most areas are platted except the gravel pit which is low density residential. He inquired if the amount of low density residential zoning was necessary for growth. He stated that there was 1000 plus acres in that area. Discussion ensued regarding vacant land bordering the west end of the city most of which is currently zoned RS-1 Low Density Single - Family Residential, some of which is wetland and changing the current residential zoning to the new agricultural zoning category. Commission Thacker inquired about the cornfield on Dartmoor that is for sale. Director of Economic Development Martin stated that is not Gerstad, Chairman Strach stated the property is unincorporated.

Commissioner Doherty inquired if Thatcher Woods was in the City limits. Director of Economic Development Martin stated it is in Wonder Lake. Planning and Zoning Commission one 13, 2018 Page 8 Director of Economic Development Martin stated there could be a logical extension of Curran Road —the west bypass — that would move south to the Stade property and connect to Crystal Lake Road. He inquired if there could be a need for Petersen Park South, Commissioner Sobotta opined that since there are no utilities in the Finch Farm parcel, a solar farm might be a good fit. He further opined that it could help with energy costs, create jobs and be of no cost to the city. He stated that in Elk Grove, industrial parks are a huge revenue builder. Director of Economic Development Martin stated we should make that property agricultural with a note as a reminder of the solar farm idea. Chairman Strach opined that would be ideal use for the low land areas. Commissioner Miler opined that might bring developers who are interested in alternative energy. Discussion ensued regarding the alternative power industry. Chairman Strach inquired if the area at Martin Road and IL Route 120 was currently agricultural. Director of Economic Development Martin confirmed that it was. Commissioner Doherty inquired about the current property use. Chairman Strach stated corn is farmed there.

Spring Grove, IL 60081 Requested Actions Conditional use permit to allow an assembly use (educational facility), STEAM -based program for children to learn by doing with a small retail component. Location and Size of Property The property is located at 1112 N Green Street and consists of 1.10 acres. Core Downtown Sub -Area Plan Designation: Mixed -Use Existins Zoning and Land Use The subject property is zoned C-4 Downtown Commercial and contains numerous commercial uses and 27 residential rental living units in a mixed -used building (River Place Luxury Residences). Adjacent Zonine and Land Use North: C-4 Downtown Commercial, D.C. Cobbs Restaurant South RS-4, High Density Multi -Family Residential, McHenry East Campus East 0-1 Local Office, McHenry Villa West: C-4, Vacant Building Background and Description of Request Snapology is a STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, Math) based program which teaches kids by having them do different activities, similar to what many of the primary schools do. It is a franchise -based business and the couple proposing to run the business out of River Place has the franchise rights for this area. They are requesting an assembly use, due to the number of children/adults that will be in the unit at any one time (more than 25). An assembly use is defined as: A building, structure, place or parts thereof for groups of people to gather for an event or regularly scheduled program that is educational, cultural, spiritual, social, or recreational in nature. The only exceptions to this definition include: building, tenant space, room or space used for public assembly purposes as defined herein with an occupant load of 25 persons or less and spaces less than 750 square feet in floor area. 1 [PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT Z-933 CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT TO ALLOW AN ASSEMBLY USE -EDUCATIONAL FACILITY] Staff Analysis All building codes will be met and the building inspectors have already done a couple of walk- thrus of the unit. An assembly use for zoning purposes is required due to the number of people in the unit, which may result in adverse impacts to adjacent land uses. However most of the people will be children so there will not be a great demand for more parking and this business will be primarily open during the day and early evening hours. Staff does not have any concerns with this use and believes it will add to the diversity of uses in the River Place building. Staff Recommendation Prior to Public Hearing Approval of a Conditional use permit to allow an assembly use (educational facility) to locate in 1112 N Green Street. Staff finds the requirements of Table 31 of the zoning ordinance have been met.

Staff worked with HR Green in having a map prepared depicting the southern and eastern portions of the City with the extraterritorial planning area (1.5 miles beyond City boundaries). The map will most likely not be ready until the meeting so staff will bring it to the meeting. Staff has also included the Prairie Grove boundary Agreement, as this is the only boundary agreement which impacts the southern and eastern portions of the City. The City does not have a boundary agreement with the Village of Lakemoor. Staff also prepared amendments to the zoning ordinance for an Agriculture District and Mixed Use District. These would complement the Agriculture and Mixed -Use Land Use categories on the Future Land Use Map. GOALS FOR MEETING The goals for the meeting are to focus on the parcels of land, specifically the large vacant ones, and ones that most likely will be redeveloped and/or developed in the City of McHenry. There are a couple of key factors to take into consideration: • On the map the City's Facilities Planning Area Boundary Line (hashed marked) is depicted; that means the City can legally serve the property with water and sewer. While FPAs can be amended there is a fairly lengthy process a municipality must go through; • It's important to keep in mind the original sheet "A GRASSROOTS COMMUNITY -WIDE PLANNING EFFORT: THE FUTURE OF COMMUNITY IS BEING PLANNED NOW! GET INVOLVED! ##MCHENRYMATTERS" and the four main headings/goals on that sheet and the objectives and long-term challenges we will be facing as a community; [PLANNING; AND ZONING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT: CONSIDERATION OF VARIOUS AMENDMENTS AND UPDATES TO THE CITY OF MCHENRY COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND DEVELOPMENT POLICIES AND CITY OF MCHENRY FUTURE LAND USE MAP AND AMENDMENTS TO THE CITY OF MCHENRY ZONING ORDINANCE] • It's also important to keep in mind environmental and buffer zones; • While the City can plan 1.5 miles behind its borders it's important to keep in mind the City would also have to service any properties which were annexed to the City; however, at the same time sometimes smaller villages may plan for higher density housing or commercial/industrial, which the City of McHenry may not believe is appropriate and could negatively impact the City of McHenry, therefore these buffer areas should be considered just that -buffer areas between one municipality and another. While it may be impractical for a property to be annexed to the City, it is still important to take serious consideration of what land use could serve as an appropriate buffer area; • It's also important to keep in mind the Prairie Grove Boundary Agreement is at the southern boundary of Morgan Hill Subdivision, off of Illinois Route 31; • South of this area is the large planned development Prairie Grove is planning, formerly Terra Cotta/Wild Flower, where they want to construct a Metra Station and town Center; • The City's FPA adjacent to Lakemoor ends at Chapel Hill Road and Illinois Route 120. East of Chapel Hill Road, Northern Moraine Sanitary District provides sewer to the surrounding area, however there are no utilities except City of McHenry utilities close to the intersection of Chapel Hill Road and Illinois Route 120, STAFF RECOMMENDATION PRIOR TO PUBLIC HEARING: It is the goal to gain acceptance of the Commission of the general future land uses of the City and acceptance of the Agriculture and Mixed Use Design District Ordinances generally.
