Chairman Donnelly called the meeting to order at 7:00 pm. Commissioner Filippone made a
motion seconded by Commissioner Fitzgerald to approve the minutes from the Planning and
Zoning Commission meeting on June 28, 2018. The minutes were approved 6-0 with
Commissioner Otteman abstaining. Chairman Donnelly introduced case, PZ -13-18 as 900 E.
Ardyce Lane and 900 Centennial Drive and stated the case is Village Board final.
Mr. Harmon gave a brief history of the property stating that 900 E. Ardyce Lane was approved
as a special use in the R2 Attached Single -Family Residential District in 1976 and 900
Centennial Drive was zoned R5 Senior Citizen Residential. However, when the Village repealed
the R5 Senior Citizen Residential Zoning District in 2009 and made senior housing a conditional
use when part of a planned unit development in the R-3 and R-4 Zoning districts, 900 Centennial
Drive was not given a new zoning designation and a planned unit development (PUD) was never
adopted. As such, the land use of 900 Centennial Drive as senior housing is existing -

nonconforming. The Subject Property would be deemed legal and conforming should the Village
Board approve the rezoning to the R4 Multi -Family Residence District and the proposed PUD.
The proposed rezoning to R-4 Multi -Family Residence District and the proposed PUD are in line
with the future land use map in the Village's Comprehensive Plan.
Mr. Harmon further explained that the Conditional Use for a Planned Unit Development is need
to allow unified zoning control over the entire development and the Petitioner will be required to
administratively consolidate the two properties into one lot of record as a condition of approval
of the proposed PUD.
Mr. Harmon briefly described the standards for a map amendment and conditional use.
He further stated, after Staff's review of the requests, Staff found the proposal meets the zoning
map amendment and conditional use standards. Staff recommends that the Planning & Zoning
Commission make a motion to adopt staff's findings of the Planning and Zoning Commission
and recommend approval of the following motions:
1. A zoning map amendment to R-4 Multi -Family Development for 900 Centennial Drive
and 900 E. Ardyce Lane; and
2. A Conditional Use for a planned unit development (PUD) consisting of two (2) principal
buildings used for senior housing as per plans by Hooker De Jong dated June 26, 2018,
subject to the following conditions:
a. Completion of an administrative subdivision which consolidates 900 E. Ardyce
Lane and 900 Centennial Drive into a single lot of record within six (6) months.
b. The appearance of the proposed corridor expansion shall be consistent with the
principal structures, with final approval at the discretion of the Director of
Community Development.
He stated the Village Board's decision is final for this case.
Chairman Donnelly verified that the existing senior housing buildings are improperly zoned due
to changes he Village implemented after the buildings were constructed.
Chairman Donnelly swore in Steve Freedland (Applegate, Thorne & Thompson) lawyer
representing the applicant.
Mr. Freedland gave a brief description of the request and how it came about. He stated that the
only slight change the Petitioner would like to consider is expanding the corridor that connects
the north and south buildings. He stated that the request is viewed as a "clean-up" item and is
needed for any future improvements to the property.
Commissioner Fitzgerald verified that the buildings will still be owned separately as they are
now even though they will consolidated to one lot of record.

Mr. Freedland stated that they will continue to be owned by the separate entities while satisfying
the Village codes requirement of consolidating to one lot of record.
CITIZENS TO BE HEARD:
Armida Lonez_ 900 Centennial Drive 4404- Commented that she would like the corridor to
remain, and general questions about the existing residents.
Chairman Donnelly swore in Robert Koerner 680 N. Lake Shore Drive, Chicago Illinois.
Mr. Koerner addressed the concerned resident's comments stating that nothing is going to
change, the rent will stay the same for the residents, and the corridor will remain. He also stated
that once his company takes ownership various projects will be done to improve the property for
the residents.
