Recommended Action Denial of the following motion:
1. A variation to allow a ten foot (10') front yard setback for 1403 N. Park Drive, as shown on
plans created by Chris George, P.C.
Public Content
The Petitioners, Dino Acquaviva and Boldmaa Batbold, propose to perform several site improvements, including
constructing an attached two -car garage. The property previously had a partially sub -grade attached single -car garage that
was filled in and converted to living space due to flooding. Another garage was not built at that time. The proposed
attached garage measures four hundred fifty square feet (450 sq. ft.) and would provide a ten foot (10') front yard
setback; a thirty foot (30') setback is required by code in the R1 zoning district, therefore a variation is required. Other
exterior improvements include a widened driveway to service the proposed garage and a covered rear patio which
complies with code.
Village staff believes the Petitioner"s request does not meet the standards for a variation and is therefore not supportive of
the request. Two of the three homes in the area referenced by the Petitioner in the application are more than a half mile
from the Subject Property and are located in a different neighborhood. Both of those structures encroach into the required
front yard setbacks by less than five feet (5"). Neither of these comparison properties received variations to permit front
yard encroachments; the homes were built before being annexed into the Village of Mount Prospect and are considered
legal -nonconforming.
However, a variation request granting a twelve foot and ten inch (12"-10") front yard setback for the purpose of
constructing a two car garage was granted for 2021 Tano Lane in 2014. 2021 Tano Lane is unique in that it is a corner lot
with floodplain presence and a shallower lot depth when compared to other properties in the subdivision. 1403 N. Park
Drive is an interior lot, with a lot depth and flood plain restrictions similar to several properties in the immediate area
(1402f 1407, and 1409 N. Park Drive), and is therefore not unique. If the Petitioner would like to keep vehicles out of
inclement weather, a detached garage may be built on the property that does not require a variation.
The Petitioner provided some letters of support from surrounding properties as part of the application. Staff received
letter of objection from a neighbor and several concerns from the general public regarding the potential change i
neighborhood character, safety concerns from the addition blocking the view of the street, and a potential reduction i
property value of adjacent homes.
At the Public Hearing held on November 8, 2018, the Planning and Zoning Commission recommended to deny thc
Petitioner's request for a variation unanimously by a vote of 5-0.

1. Deny the variation to allow a ten foot (10') front yard setback for 1403 N. Park Drive, as shown on plans created by
Chris George, P.C.
2. Action at discretion of Village Board.
Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends that the Village Board deny the variation request.
This case is Village Board final since the variation exceeds twenty-five percent (25%) of the Zoning Ordinance
requirement.

OCTOBER 31, 2018
NOVEMBER 8, 2018
PZ -18-18 / 1403 N. PARK DRIVE / VARIATION (FRONT YARD SETBACKS)
A public hearing has been scheduled for the November 8, 2018 Planning & Zoning Commission meeting to review
the application by Dino Acquaviva and Boldmaa Batbolod (the "Petitioner"), regarding the property located at 1403
N. Park Drive (the "Subject Property"). The Petitioner is seeking a variation to the front yard setback to construct
a two car garage in front of their home. The P&Z Commission hearing was properly noticed in the October 24,
2018 edition of the Daily Herald newspaper. In addition, the Petitioner completed the required written notice to
property owners within 350 -feet and staff posted public hearing signs on the Subject Property.
PROPERTY DESCRIPTION
The Subject Property is located on the east side of N. Park Drive north of Tano Lane. The existing property contains
a detached single family home with related improvements. The Subject Property is zoned R1 Single Family
Residential. The Subject Property is bordered by the R1 Single Family Residential District to the south, west, and
north. It is bordered by the Lake Avenue Woods -West forest preserve in Cook County to the east.
SUMMARY OF PROPOSAL
The Petitioner proposes to perform several site improvements, including constructing an attached two -car garage.
The property previously had a partially sub -grade attached single -car garage that was filled in and converted to
living space due to flooding. Another garage was not built at that time. The garage measures four hundred fifty
square feet (450 sq. ft.) and would provide a ten foot (10') front yard setback when a thirty foot (30') setback is
required. The Petitioner also proposes to widen the existing driveway and construct a new rear patio with a covered
roof.
GENERAL ZONING COMPLIANCE
The Subject Property does not comply with the village's zoning regulations. An existing shed on the property
encroaches into the required side yard setback. The proposed improvements do not comply with village regulations.
The following table compares the Petitioner's proposal to the R1 Single Family Residence District's bulk
requirements. The italicized text denotes items that do not comply with the Village Code's regulations.

En ,yinecring — If approved, a minimum of fifteen feet (15') of green space should be required between the existing
parkway tree and the proposed driveway expansion.
VARIATION STANDARDS
The standards for a variation are listed in Section 14.203.C.9 of the Village Zoning Ordinance and include seven
specific findings that must be made in order to approve a variation. The following list is a summary of these
findings:
A hardship due to the physical surroundings, shape, or topographical conditions of a specific property not
generally applicable to other properties in the same zoning district and not created by any person presently
having an interest in the property;
Lack of desire to increase financial gain; and
Protection of the public welfare, other property, and neighborhood character.
Per the Petitioner, the owner is disabled and therefore has a difficult time removing snow from cars left on the
driveway. The Petitioner states that the purpose of the variation is to keep cars out of snow in the winter and not on
the desire to increase financial gain. The Petitioner states that the proposed variation is not detrimental to the public
welfare or injurious to other property or improvements in the neighborhood in which the property is located. Further,
the Petitioner states that the addition will not impair light and air to adjacent property or diminish property values
as it is only one story in height and will have a ten foot (10') setback. Lastly, the Petitioner states that granting this
front yard setback variation would be in keeping with other homes in the neighborhood, namely 1014 and 914
Burning Bush Lane.
Village staff believes the Petitioner's variation request does not meet the standards and is therefore not supportive
of the request. Two of the three homes in the area referenced by the Petitioner are more than a half mile from the
Subject Property and located in a different neighborhood. Both of those structures encroach into the required yard
setbacks by less than five feet (5'). Neither of these properties received variations to permit front yard
encroachments; the homes were built before being annexed into the Village of Mount Prospect and are considered
legal -nonconforming.
However, a variation request granting a twelve foot and ten inch (12'-10") front yard setback for the purpose of
constructing a two car garage was granted for 2021 Tano Lane in 2014. 2021 Tano Lane is unique in that it is a
corner lot with floodplain presence and a shallower lot depth when compared to other properties in the subdivision.
1403 N. Park Drive is an interior lot with a lot depth and flood plain restrictions similar to several properties in the
immediate area (1402, 1407, and 1409 N. Park Drive), and is therefore not unique. If the Petitioner would like to
keep vehicles out of inclement weather, a detached garage may be built on the property that does not require a
variation.

RECO7 MENDATION
Staff finds that the standards for variation have not been met. Based on these findings, Staff recommends that the
Planning and Zoning Commission make a motion to adopt staff's findings as the findings of the Planning and
Zoning Commission and recommend denial of the following motions:
1. A variation to allow a ten foot (10') front yard setback for 1403 N. Park Drive, as shown on plans created
by Chris George, P.C.
The Village Board's decision is final.
I concur:

for all of the photos. If you have addresses of the homes in your photos it would be helpful (we would like to research if
these homes have had variations granted, or how any encroaching garages were built). Address would be most helpful in
performing that research. Have a good weekend.

To Whom May concern,
The reason we need the garage in the front of the house are many,
We have visited a dozen homes in our Neighborhood with less space in -front
Of their homes, with similar 2 car garages and Circle Drive ways.
I am Disabled and Handicapped, The shorter Drive way in the front of the house would make My access
to and from our Vehicles much easier.
It will help lower Our Maintenance costs for snow removal and upkeep.
We Thank You in Advance for your Approval for the much Needed work
On our Property!

INTERESTED PARTIES: Dino Acquaviva & Boldmaa Batbold
Chairman Donnelly called the meeting to order at 7:03 pm. Commissioner Beattie made a motion
seconded by Commissioner Filippone to approve the minutes from the Planning and Zoning Commission
meeting on October 25, 2018. The minutes were approved 5-0. Chairman Donnelly introduced case, PZ -
18 -18 as 1403 Park.
Mr. Shallcross gave a brief description of the Subject Property stating that it is zoned R1 Single Family
Residential.
Mr. Shallcross summarized the Petitioner's proposal of constructing an attached two -car garage. He
further explained the garage measures four hundred fifty square feet (450 sq. ft.) and would provide a
ten foot (10') front yard setback when a thirty foot (30') setback is required. The Petitioner also proposes
to widen the existing driveway and construct a new rear patio with a covered roof.
Mr. Shallcross also explained that the Subject Property does not comply with the village's zoning
regulations. An existing shed on the property encroaches into the required side yard setback. The
proposed improvements do not comply with village regulations.
He summarized the variation standards as the following:

z
A hardship due to the physical surroundings, shape, or topographical conditions of a specific
property not generally applicable to other properties in the same zoning district and not created
by any person presently having an interest in the property;
a Lack of desire to increase financial gain; and
o Protection of the public welfare, other property, and neighborhood character.
Mr. Shallcross stated, per the Petitioner, the owner is disabled and therefore has a difficult time
removing snow from cars left on the driveway. The Petitioner states that the purpose of the variation is
to keep cars out of snow in the winter and not the desire to increase financial gain.
Mr. Shallcross gave a brief explanation of the legal non -conforming properties in the area that have
significantly less encroachments than the proposal.
Mr. Shallcross, stated that Staff finds the standards for variation have not been met. Based on these
findings, staff recommends that the Planning and Zoning Commission make a motion to adopt staff's
findings as the findings of the Planning and Zoning Commission and recommend denial of the following
motions:
1. A variation to allow a ten foot (10') front yard setback for 1403 N. Park Drive, as shown on plans
created by Chris George, P.C.
The Village Board's decision is final.
Chairman Donnelly asked for clarification on the history of the garage and if a detached garage could be
built on the property.
Mr. Shallcross stated that a detached garage could be built on the property without the need of a
variation; and that the existing subgrade garage was converted into living space.
There was general discussion from the Commission regarding the ability to construct a driveway if the
garage was built detached or attached in the rear of the house.
Chairman Donnelly swore in Dino Acquaviva 1403 Park Drive Mount Prospect, Illinois.
Mr. Acquaviva gave a brief description of the physical hardship his property endures. He stated that he is
disabled and having an attached covered garage for his car will help make it easier for him. He stated that
he would be eliminating a deck to construct the garage/driveway.
Chairman Donnelly stated that the hardship has to relate to the physical property.
Mr. Acquaviva stated that building the attached garage in the front of the house is more affordable, about
$15,000 less than building the detached garage in the back of the house.
Commissioner Beattie asked, what other factors, if any, besides cost is the Petitioner against building a
detached garage in the rear of the home.

Mr. Acquaviva stated that he wants the garage attached in the front of the home so he doesn't have to
go outside to get to his car to reduce the change of slipping. He stated this is their dream home and they
are trying to make it work for his recent physical needs.
Citizens to be heard:
Mike Dietzel, 311 N. Maple Street- gave his support to the Petitioner even though he does not live in the
neighborhood of the Petitioner.
Frank Acquaviva. 1400 N. Park Drive- gave his support for the Petitioner's request. Stated he understands
all points of view but stressed his brother's physical condition and stated that the cost of constructing the
attached garage in the back of the home would be too costly because it would have to be built up higher
so it doesn't flood. He stated the back portion of the yard is in a flood plain.
There was general discussion between the commission and staff regarding the nature of the flooding issue
in the Petitioner's area.
Mr. Shallcross reiterated that the entire eastern part of Park Drive is under a flood plain, and that storm
water detention would be needed to be addressed regardless where the Petitioner builds the garage.
Chairman Donnelly asked the Petitioner to address his plan to address storm water if the garage is built.
Mr. Acquaviva stated that he discuss with his architect and engineer to find a solution.
Chairman Donnelly stated that the Planning and Zoning Commission can only recommend a proposal to
the Village Board for approval or denial. He stressed that the Petitioner should bring his architect and or
engineer with to the Village Board meeting to better explain the storm water detention and other
questions about the proposal.
Mr. Acquaviva stated that the hardship is in regards to the property flooding every year.
Chairman Donnelly stated that the entire property is in a flood plain therefore no matter where the garage
is built it will still be considered in a flood plain.
Commissioner Filippone asked the Petitioner questions regarding the timeline of the flooding and
construction improvements since the Petitioner has owned the home.
There was general discussion between the Commission and Petitioner regarding the flooding of the
Petitioner's immediate neighbors.
Commissioner Filippone stated that he believes there is enough space in the back yard to put the garage
in the rear of the property and find another solution.
Mr. Acquaviva stated that he can't afford that option.
The Commission reiterated again that granting a variation cannot be for monetary reasons and stated that
they are only a recommendation body to the Village Board, and that the case is Village Board final.

Hearing no further questions for the Petitioner, the discussion was brought back to the Commission.
Commissioner Filippone made a motion seconded by Commissioner Szymczak to recommend denial of
the following motions:
1. A variation to allow a ten foot (10') front yard setback for 1403 N. Park Drive, as shown on plans
created by Chris George, P.C.
Commissioner Filippone stated he has sympathy for the Petitioner and his family; however, the evidence
presented doesn't justify a hardship.
