Community Development Director Bill Cooney provided the following background information regarding the subject project:
• 2008 the Village approved a mixed-use building that included 105 condominium units.
• 2013 - the Downtown Development Plan was competed; this project area was one of six "opportunity sites" identified
• Nicholas and Associates was identified as the preferred developer for this plan stating their reputation and involvement and
commitment to the Mount Prospect community,
Mr. Cooney added this is an approval for a preliminary Planned Unit Development (PUD) consisting of a six -story building with
seventy-three apartments and a two-story restaurant concept and parking. The following issues were raised at a public open house
on August 17, 2017:
• Parking - for apartments, restaurants and surrounding businesses and special events
• Traffic impact on rear alley
Mr. Cooney stated a traffic study was conducted and a parking view has been completed. The Main Street Bridge Concept was
discussed but Mr. Cooney added it is an expensive proposition but would be beneficial to the downtown area.
The Planning and Zoning Commission held a public hearing on August 24, 2017 and recommended approval of the proposal by a
vote of 5-0. Mr. Cooney introduced Mr. Nick Papanicholas, representative for Nicholas and Associates, to answer additional
questions from the Board and residents. Mr. Papanicholas addressed the Board and stated he is pleased to reinvest in the
community. He stated the Mount Prospect Ice Arena is doing very well and looks forward to further success with this proposed
project. Mr. Papanicholas added this development will spur further development in the downtown area and the modern design is
unique to downtown but will fit in and provide an urban feel.
Chris Coleman, Wingspan Development Group, provided the following additional details including an aerial view of the project.
• Original submittal was more modern; this proposal incorporates a traditional design element.
• Village wanted a retail component.
• Additional parking was requested.
• Property needs to be a statement for the Village; a two story restaurant will add to this idea.
• Highly ammenitized units with 42 inch cabinets, granite countertops and upscale finishing.
• Common areas including a gym with a separate yoga/fitness on demand area.
• Outdoor spaces with pet -friendly areas.
The Petitioners provided the followina in response to auestions from the Board:
• Three unit sizes will be offered at competitive rates; efficiencies - $1150/month, 1 bedroom - $1450/month and 2 bedroom -
$1950/month (noted these are preliminary figures)
• Brick, concrete and steel materials will be utilized.
• Marketing will be a significant component to this project with the intent to draw people of all stages in life to Mount Prospect.
• Bike Storage will be available.
• Storage units will be available on every floor.
Comments from the Board
• Exciting project for downtown
• This is the future of Mount Prospect
• The success of this project is key to continued development in downtown
• The future of transportation is still an unknown (ie. decrease in car ownership, increase use of Uber, Lyft. etc)
Public Comments
Louis Goodman
310 N. School Street
-Expressed concern with the bridge concept and who will be responsible for the cost
Board responded this project is not specific to this building; this has been an on-going discussion/plan for a long time. The bridge
would benefit the entire downtown area. Board added that it is too early to discuss final plans for the bridge concept.
Resident
The Residences
-Expressed concern over the traffic impact. Stated the traffic study conducted was inadequate and should have been studied over a
weekend when traffic is heavier.
-Resident stated she has ideas for parking design.
Mayor Juracek stated she can share her ideas with Mr. Cooney at a later date.
Resident
Village Center
Agreed traffic study was too short; witnessed only over three (3) days and did not cover a weekend.
Stated parking will be an issue and the size of the proposed building is too big for the footprint
Mary Jane Grabowski
-Expressed concerns over the easement
Mayor Juracek stated that will be decided as part of the yet to be drafted development agreement.
Resident
Village Center
-Stated traffic between Main and Wille will increase.
Mayor Juracek asked if we can make sure we look at traffic on Busse; Mr. Cooney stated figures are available and further attention
will be given to this.

-Thanked the Village, developers and architects for taking on such an ambitious project but expressed he too felt the plans were too
big for the footprint.
-Prefers the traditional design and feels it represents Mount Prospect; modern glass design is too modern for downtown.
-Stated downtown needs more retail space and feel this building will take up a lot of prime retail space
-Prefers entrance on Wille Street
Mr. Pinchot was thanked for his comments.
Resident
Village Center
Expressed parking concerns
Notion that people in the suburbs will use Uber in lieu of owning a personal vehicle is a misconception; this is not downtown
Chicago.

Chad Busse
604 S. Owen

parking space is $75.00
Barb Winfield
Apartment Complex resident
-Asked developers to re -consider the glass facade concept. Ms. Winfield added due to the proposed building's close proximity to the
railroad tracks, dirt and grime will from the tracks will cause the glass to become very diry over time.
Dawn Fletcher Collins
515 W. Prospect Manor
Ms. Collins thanked everyone involved in this project and for working to make this a needed reality for Mount Prospect. Ms. Collins
added she looks forward to fixing the parking challenges this project brings.

the community.
