WHEREAS, as a result of said hearing, the Zoning Board of Appeals did
recommend to the City Council the granting of the requested Zoning Map Amendment,
Conditional Use Permit, and Variance; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has considered the evidence and recommendation
from the Zoning Board of Appeals and finds that the approval of the requested Zoning
Map Amendment, Conditional Use Permit, and Variance is consistent with the objectives
of the City of McHenry Zoning Ordinance to protect the public health, safety, morals and
general welfare of its residents.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF MCHENRY, MCHENRY COUNTY, ILLINOIS, AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1: That the property commonly knows as the portion of 3925 W. Route
120 along Main Street, and legally described on Exhibit A, attached hereto and
incorporated herein by reference, be granted a Zoning Map Amendment to C-5, Highway
Commercial.
SECTION 2: That the property commonly knows as 3925 W. Route 120 and
legally described on Exhibit B, attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference
("Subject Property"), be granted a Conditional Use Permit for a drive-thru service lane,
and Variance to the required 10-foot side building setbacks from the east and west
property line.
SECTION 3: That the approval of the Conditional Use Permit and Variance as
provided in this ordinance is granted subject to the following conditions:
1. The property shall be developed in substantial conformance with the latest
drawings submitted as part of the zoning application materials, which include
the site plan prepared by Hirsch Associates LLC., dated May 03, 1999, the
building elevations prepared by Hirsch Associates LLC., dated April 28, 1999
(with the exception of any signage indicated on said plans), and the
landscape plans prepared by Appold Design, Inc., dated April 19, 1999.
2. No parking shall be permitted in the public alley to the west of the Subject
Property, or in the area to the south of the building.
3. The design and construction of the masonry wall to the south of the building
shall be developed in substantial conformance with the design indicated on
the building elevations plan sheet prepared by Hirsch Associates LLC., dated
April 28, 1999,
4. The record owner of the Subject Property shall be responsible for the
continued maintenance and upkeep of the public alley to the west of the
Subject Property, including without limitation snow removal, landscape
maintenance, and pavement repairs. '
SECTION 4: In granting said Zoning Map Amendment, the City Council finds
that the requirements of Table 33 of the Zoning Ordinance have been met in that:
The requested zoning classification is compatible with the existing uses
and zoning property in the environs;
2. The requested zoning classification is supported by the trend of
development in the general area;
3. The requested zoning classification is consistent with the objectives of the
City of McHenry Comprehensive Plan; and
4. The requested classification promotes the public interest.
SECTION 5: In granting said Conditional Use Permit, the City Council finds that
the requirements of Table 33 of the Zoning Ordinance have been met in that:
1. Any adverse impact of types or volumes of traffic flow not otherwise
typical in the zoning district has been minimized.
2. 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;
3. 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 already
existing in the area or normally associated with permitted uses in the
district.
4. 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;
5. 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; and
6. The proposed use is in harmony with all other elements of compatibility
pertinent to the Conditional Use and its particular location.
SECTION 6: In granting said Variance, the City Council finds that the
requirements of Table 32 of the Zoning Ordinance have been met in that:
Special circumstances exist that are peculiar to the property for which the
variance is sought and that do not apply generally to other properties in
the same zoning district. And these circumstances are not of so general
or recurrent a nature as to make it reasonable practical to provide a
general regulation to cover them.
2. The special circumstances referenced herein relate only to the physical
character of the land or building(s) for which the variance is sought, such
as dimension, topography, or soil conditions. They do not concern any
business or activity the present or prospective owner or tenant carries on,
or seeks to carry on, therein, not to the personal, business, or financial
circumstances of such owner or tenant or any other party with interest in
the property.
3. The special circumstances that are the basis for the variance have not
resulted from any act of the applicant or of any other party with interest in
the property.
4. The strict application of the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance would
result in unnecessary and undue hardship upon the applicant, as
distinguished from a mere inconvenience.
5. A Variance is necessary for the applicant to preserve and enjoy a
substantial property right possessed by other properties in the same
zoning district and does not confer a special privilege ordinarily denied to
other properties in the district.
6. The granting of a Variance is necessary not because it will increase the
applicant's economic return, although it may have this effect, but because
without the variance the applicant will be deprived of any reasonable use
or enjoyment of the property.
7. The granting of a Variance will not alter the essential character of the
locality nor substantially impair environmental quality, property values, or
public safety or welfare in the vicinity.
8. The granting of a Variance will be in harmony with the general purpose
and intent of the Zoning Ordinance and of the Comprehensive Plan of the
City, as viewed in light of any changed conditions since their adoption.
9. The Variance requested is the minimum required to provide the applicant
with reasonable use and enjoyment of the property.
SECTION 7: All Ordinance or parts thereof in conflict with the terms and
provisions hereof are hereby repealed to the extent of such conflict.
SECTION 8: This Ordinance shall be ptjblished in pamphlet form by and under
the authority of the corporate authorities of the City of McHenry, McHenry County,
Illinois.
SECTION 9: This Ordinance shall be in full force and effect from and after its
passage, approval, and publication in pamphlet form as provided by law.
