The Zoning Board of Appeals considered the petition at their November 19, 1981 and December 3, 1981 meetings. Staff investigated lines of sight and found no interference with traffic signals, however, they did request the maximum size of 61,-' x 81-,'. The Zoning Board of Appeals recommended approval of the variation for a maximum size of 6j-2' x 83-2' to be located per Exhibit No. 1 (attached) and subject to the elimination of any message board attached to the sign. The Board's vote was 4-2 with Mr, Viger and Mr. Petrucelli voting against the motion.

With the cooperation of the Public Works Department, we simulated a 81xl01 sign at t -he corner and then took pictures in order to show its potential impact on traffic, signals and general visibility, With reasonable consideration given to the chbice of colors and subdued interior illumination, the sign location would not interfere with signal visibility. The same photo also shows the sign as 'it would appear to the eye if reduced approximately 30 -percent (635' by 81-2 The staff would recommend this as the maximum size 'if the Board wishes to consider this variation. In addition, we would recommend no additional signs be permitted on the property and that landscaping be installed on the site. The base of the sign could be planted with low shrubbery. Also the two Northern parking spaces could have planters placed to the No ' rth and planters -could also be placed on the small island at the Southwest corner of the parcel. Village' -CIT, 'cunt Prospect Mount Prospect, Illinois L INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM TOO- Gil Basnik, Zoning Board of Appeals Chairman FROM. - P Community Development Staff SUBJECT: ZBA-24-V-81,, Peter Panagopoulos LOCATION,: 2 West Northwest Highway DATE,: November 12, 1981 The petitioner 'is requesting variations from the Sign Ordinance Section 9.303.E.4(A)(1) and E.4.(B)(3); to allow construction of -a free-standing business sign. The proposed sign would be 18 feet in height, 80 square feet in area (8xlO) and have a setback of 4 feet from the property line for the support pole. VILLAGE STAFF COMENTS No staff cornments were received on this case, The property is presently being remodeled and renovated with a revised parking layout and inclusion of landscaping. The result will be a significant improvement over the previous use of.the lot. The free-standing sign requested would be located within. the landscaped area at the corner of the lot. I The sign, as proposed, would be centered within the private landscaped area at the corner. The sign is shown as 10 feet long, and located approximately 2 to 3 feet from the prop�rty Line. The proximity of the sign to this major intersection is a problem in our opinion. The size and height of the sign would also add to the confusion at this corner and could "overpower" this small lot. This request is a major deviation from the requirements of the Sign Ordinance. One option the Board may wish to consider is to modify the size, height and setback of the free-st'andinq sign and also reduce or eliminate the wall signs as a conditiol-i of any variation granted. wm� F 77 i pp F .

NOTICE PUBLISHED: YES NEIGHBORS NOTIFIED YES FINDINGS ON PETITION Petitioner asked for this rezoning in order to ope3`ate an amusement center. Petitioner stated ,, in support of his petition, the proximity to other B-4 uses and the fact that the use was consistent with the general area. The petitioner,,stated the amusenrent center would have adult attendants, approximately 125 games would be installed, and that no smoking, eating or drinking would be permitted on premises.. Petitioner would remodel the structure and felt that: parking would be sufficient due to a high turn --aver on the premises. The site :has 19 parking spaces and is located South of the Randhur,st Shopping Center, East of the Goodyear Tire Center. The Community Development staff cited the issues to be considered in, deliberation of the case. These included the desirability of expanding a. B-4 District in this particular area because of the high traffic volumes and traffic safety problems, .A safety factor ' far pedestrians and bicyclists is also of concern because of the age group of clients The number and intensity of uses permitted in the B-4 District may cause problems of corn-patibil ity and safety. The principal conte-rns raised by Board mem ►ers were the adequacy of tChe site in terns of traffic safety -and parking and the desirability of creating an enlarged B--4 area at: this location. The Board members raised questions about whether 19 spaces would be sufficient to handle the potential occupancy of this site and also whether there was adequate provision for pedestrians or bicyclists crossing Kensington, Rand and. ;Route 83 to approach this particular location. The rezoning to B-4 November 19, 1981 Public Hearing Report Page Two would extend the highest intensity commercial uses permitted in the Village with their related potential problems. A majority of the zoning in the,area is B-3. The Board of Appeals found that no evdence was submitted, that ty propervalues were d'minished by the 'i existing B-3 zoning,,' and that the petitioner's request for B-4 may cause an increase in safety,hazards in the area, The petitioner did not submit evidence that a hardship was caused by the existing B-3 zoning nor that there was any significant public gain by the rezoning, The past uses of the property were consistent with the B-3 zoning. The existing,, B-3 zoning was felt to be c6tpati ble with the Comprehens live Plan of the Village and the rezoning was, not, substantiated by evidence of communitv need RECOMMENDATION Mr. Van Geem made a motion, seconded by Mr. Cassidy to recommend approval of the petition for rezoning* By a vote of 0-6. with Mr. Vi ger abstaining due to a lack of survey being submitted in e 'dencet the motion was denied. vi ZIA ClIx 101 k p H Mount Prospect Mount Prospect, Illinois 1*N "T'08 Terrance L.

The s'iqn is to be approximately 15 square feet in area on the Southeast wall of the building. The Community Development staff report raised questions on the need for the sign when considering the other permitted signs on the lot, and the lack of hardship established by the petitioner, The Zoning Board of Appeals, at their December 17, 1981 public hearing, recommended approval of the sign by a vote of 6-1.

If approved, it is the staff's opinion, it would merely add, needlessly to the proliferation of busines-1-3 signs along this arterial. 41 For this reason, the staff would recommend against approval of th iis petition as submitted.

This amendment restructures the permitted and excluded uses listed in the B-3 District in order to provide for gasoline sales -and automobile service stations as a special use in the B-3 District, Upon review of the proposed amendment by the Village Departments no negative comments were received. CC eLMUNITY DEVELOPMENT STAFF RECOOTU4ENDAT IONS The staff prepared this text amendment after the Zoning Board of Appeals and Village Board recommended approval of ZBA-20-Z-81, Schimming Oil Company, as a special use in the B-3 District rather than a rezoning to the B-4 District. A number of other similar cases have resulted in recommendations -by the Board for a special use for gas stations and automobile service stations rather than a rezoning. A special use would afford "Significantly more control over the use in the B-3 zoning district as compared to a B-4 rezoning of the property. Cormnunity Development staff therefore recommends approval of this proposed amendment.

Residential Care Homes is the specific definition given for all types of care for disabled, alcohol dependent, chemical dependent, handicapped, or mentally disabled individuals., VILLAGE STAFF COMMENTS All Village Departments have reviewed the petition and no negative comments were received. COMUNITY DEVELOPMENT STAFF REC01-UMENDATIONS This amendment has been brought forward because of the number of requests received by staff for foster care homes, homes for autistic children, homes for the mentally disabled, homes for the physically disabled or other types of residential facilities. Rather than address each type as they come forward for approval, the staff has prepared a comprehensive amendment on the subject of these facilities. The basic thrust of this amendment is to require extensive information on the suitability of each facility at the specific location and to limit the type of facility based upon the - ', general area in which it is to be located. Large scale homes are not permitted in the single family residential districts and are permitted by special use only in the multiple family district. The Community Development staff feels this ordinance provides, a reasonable protection not only to the rights of the Village and existing Village residents but also to the rights of the potential residents living in each of these facilities. The staff would recommend approval of this petition. KHF -0 hg Villa'e Rf Mount Prospect Mount Prospect, Illinois RM." A AA"I.y fro4 prf, INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM TO We Terrance L. Burghard,, Village Manager FROM: Kenneth H. Fritz, Community Development Director SUBJECT: ZBA-31-A-81, VILLAGE OF MOUNT PROSPECT DATE: December 22, 1981 The proposed text amendment is a draft prepared by staff to address regulations for residential care homes. The proposed amendment sets forth definitions, specific- requirements, and listing of permitted and special uses in various residential districts. The Zoning Board of Appeals considered the proposel amendment at the December 3. and December 17, 1981 public hearings. I The questions raised ally by the Zoning Board of Appeals include the minimum distance between such facilities, the amount of parking required for each type of facility and its location on therequirements for licensing, and,the distinction between the size of facility and the tN7TDe of client involved. The Board members considered whether the larger facilities, above that defined by family, should be permitted or special uses in all districts. Finally, the Board raised the question of whether this type of facility was a desirable use in any single family area in the Village., The Community Development staff, in preparing the draft, con- sidered case law existing throughout Illinois and the United States and information supplied by other authorities in the health care industry. The text amendment does not reflect thvw approach used by any other community in the area as no com- munity has to date addressed the issue. The Zoning Board of Appeals, after consideration of the specific questions and concerns recommended denial of the text amendment. The Board stated that they felt the existing ordinance, in defining family, adequately addressed the provision of health care in residential neighborhoods.

Northwest Hi2hway_�Man7-S) The pet ' litioner is seeking a variation to locate a free-standing business sign on property located at the Northwest corner of Route 83 and Northwest Highway. The request was continued from the November 19,1981 Board meeting in order to acquire additional information on sight distances and potential interference with traffic signals. Ken Fritz, Director of Community Development, presented the staff findings and recommendations on the case. Exhibits prepared by the staff indicate that no interference is expected ected between traffic signals and the proposed sign. The staff recommended that the size of the sign be reduced to a maximum of 62- feet by 8-1-2 feet with a clearance of 10 feet from ground to the bottom of sign. Additionally the staff suggested that any in- terior illumination be maintained at a low level so as not to create too bright of a background for the traffic lights at this intersection. Mr. VanGeem questioned the need for a message board attached to this sign. It was his opinion that the additional information might cause traffic problems for people driving by the congested intersection. Several Board members questioned the size of the sign re(Tuested at 80 square feet, 8 feet by 10 feet, and felt that no evidence was given which supported the need for this size sign, Mr. Petrucelli made a motion to approve a sign of maximum dimension of 63-2' x 83-2' per petitioner's Exhibit No. 1. The motion died for lack of a second. The Board, in considering the standards for granting their variations, felt that the property would be diminished in value to a certain degree if a sign could not be installed. The Board also felt that the request was due to the unique situation on the property, the building being set back from adjacent structures, and that the hardship was not created by the current petitioner. The Board considered the question of public benefit or harm regarding traffic safety at this particular intersection, Zoning Board of Appeals Minutes December 3, 1981 Page Two Finally, the Board determined that the requested sign would not signifi- cantly alter the character of the general area. Mr. Cassidy made a motion, "seconded by Mrs. Brothers to approve a free-standing business sign cif :a maximum dimension of 6h feet by 8h feet per petitioner's, Exhibit'No. 1 and subject to the elimination of any message board attached to the sign. The motion was approved 1by a vote of 4-2 with Mr. Viger and MrOlPetrucelli voting against the motion. The * Board questioned whether they had the authority to grant this variation or would merely be recommending approval to the Village Board, The staff was requested to seek a legal determination from the Village Attorney as to whether the Zoning Board of Appeals would be final in this particular request. Contingent upon the Zoning Board of Appeals being found to have the authority to grant this variation, Mr. Cassidy made a motion, seconded by Mrs. Brothers to recommend approval of Resolution Z-24-81 granting a variation for a maximum size sign of 6h feet by:81� feet per petitioner's Exhibit No. 1 and subject to -no message board being provided on the sign. By a vote of 4-2r with Mr. Viger and Mr, Pettucelli voting against the motion, the Resolution was approved. ZBA-32-V-81 and ZBA-33-SU-81 Briarwolod, Sh]Lnq, Center, 1801 1843 a 1,, Petitioner is requesting variations from Section 14,1702.A.,B,, and C., 14.703 and 14.1705.A. in order to permit fewer off-street parking spaces than previously authorized by ordinance No, 2513, dated July 16, 1974, and to per it said off-street parking spaces in the required yards. The request'for Special Use, ZBA-33-SU-81, is for approval of a third free- standing building on the subject property, Mr, Bernard Lee represented the petitioner, Jimmie T, Giftos, and presented the following background information. The property was annexed and built, by a previous owner, in 1974.The lot consists of approximately 95,000 square feet and has been authorized for two free-standing buildings with a total square footage of approximately 4, 000. The previous ordinance in 1974 specifiIed 147 parking spaces which were never provided and which could not be physically placed on the site. Mr. Lee entered the following exhibits into evidence: a Torrens Certifi- cate for the property, a Trust Agreement, a letter from Chicago Title and Trust authorizing Mr. Giftos to apply for these cases, and a survey of the property. The Community Development staff report was read which suggested approval of the variations in order, to maximize the available parking on site. The report identified that the current parking situation does not adequately provide for customers and employees; and substantial re- design and re -construction of the parkinq lot would be necessary in ,order to maximize the parking efficiency and traffic flow on the site. I Mr,"Viger, questioned whether the 'property as`described I escribed in the survey is a, corner lot as identiPied :in the petition or a double -frontage' lot, Zoning Board of Appeals Minutes December 3, 1981 Page Three Discussion ensued on the definition of a corner versus a double frontage lot. Mr. Basnik raised the question of whether the Fotomat existing on -the ite was a legal building in light of the past authorization for only si two free-standing buildings. Staff advised that no building,permit was issued for the Fotomat Store. Mr. Louis Craig, 2808 Briarwiii and Mr. Gordon Dunker, 2715 Elaine Court, both spoke of the problems associated with the Briarwood Shopping Center. These gentlemen from the Briarwood Association commented that there was insufficient parking on the site and that the Fotomat Store took up needed parking. They also cited the poor maintenance of both the parking lot and the periphery of the,site. Mr. Giftos stated that the Fotomat building would be removed and aske(II that the Special Use request, 33 -SU -81 be withdrawn, Mrs. Brothers moved, seconded by Mr. Petrucelli to recommend approval of the variations to permit additional parking and re -design of the parking facility contingent upon the removal of the Fotomatj provision of additional Parking in 'its place, and approval of the design and con*- struction of the new parking lot by the Community Development staff. By a vote of6-0 the motion recommending approval passed.

The lot size is above the minimum for R-1 Single Pamilyl- consistent with the surrounding area. The South end of the cul-de-sac, even with smaller widthp contain lots of significantly greater area. Mr, Roy Harnish engineer for Mr. Craig, and Mr. Craig ' stated that the development would not, unduly interfere with drainage in the area and that oil* storm sewers were planned. They also stated that they would be wi inq to eliminate one lot and increase the lot width at the South end of the cul-de-sac from Lots 4 through 10. Mr, Cassidy stated that he had no problem with the rezoning but did suggest 0 the increase in lot width on Lots 4 through 10. Mr, Viger stated he felt the requirements should be made for a minimum 6.5 foot side yard at the The case was continued build.-Lng line regardless of the width of the lot. until their January 28, 1981 regular meeting of the Zoning Board of kopeals so that Mr. Craig would be able to prepare revised, drawings. ZBA-36-V-81 Leonard No'ga 109 S. Albert Street LM:21'1E,,,1 10-S) Mr. Nogaj presented his request for a 6 foot privacy fence extending from the front building line, 64 feet toward the rear of his property, along the North lot line. The fence 'is requested as some large hedges and shrubbery' were removed recently along this lot line eliminating the visual barrier between the two properties. Mr, Noqaj said that the fence was requested as a privacy measure to assist in separating his family and his dog from the neighbor to the North. He stated that an existing fence of 4-5 feet,' approximately 20-25 feet in length 'is 'insufficient for the purposes desired. In the rear yard also, is a wire fence which would be removed upon installation of the requested 6 foot fence'. Mrs. Lois, Noga3 submitted a letter from the prop�erty owner to,the South which stated they had no objection to the request. Mr. Waldemar Blela, the neighbor immediately to the North, appeared in opposition to the request, He had just 'installed a 5 foot high chain link fence this Fall along that common property line. He stated he saw no reason for the fence particularly since he planned to 'Install bushes along that chain link fence when weather permitted* Mrw John Murphyr owner of 106 S. Albert and Ms. Bernetta Bier, 102 S. Albert stated objection to the 6 foot fence as they, felt that it would not improve the aesthetics of the neighborhood and may diminish their property values.

The proposal was continued from the December 3. 1981 meeting i I n order to perml regiI it further ew by Board members. Mr. Cassidy questioned why the regulations cited 12 individuals as the numerical distinction between hypes of facilities and suggested a lower number be used. He also -suggested stricter enforcement of the clientele that would be Permitted in these facilities and that some types of clients would not be desirable in the Village. Mr., Va,nGeem questioned why some facilities are permitted uses in the proposed ordinance in multliple-family dwelling districts and not in single family dwelling districts, He proposed that they should be special uses in both single and multiple -family districts, Mr. Viger stated 'in his opinion,the R-1 District requires two off-street parking spaces, no more and no less, The ordinance as proposed, may re- quire more parking than currently required. Mr. Bani k suggested that one parking space should be required for every individual with a driver's license so that parking would not be a problem, particularly in single family areas, 0 Mr, Petrucelll stated his opinion that no single family area should have e r idental care homes allowed, si i The Z6ning Board, in further discussionr recommended that the existing text, defining family, 'is adequate and that no amendment is desired., • Mr, VanGeem made a motion, seconded by Mr, Cassidy to recommend denial of the proposed petition.

The variance in question proposes to allow a 51 x 51 corporate logo to be attached to the south face of First National Bank of Mount Prospect's new facility at the corner of Rand and Business Center Drive. Although I have no objection to the logo per se, 0 I do object to the excess signage on this property. It is my understanding that the intent of the Sign Ordinance as written and proposed by your staff is to reduce the amount of unnecessary signage in Mount Prospect and to produce greater consistency in the installation of signs. I would appreciate it if you would consider recommending denial of this variance on the grounds that this additional signage is redundant and contrary to the intent of the Village sign standards.

Who Is Covered By The 1000 Hour Standard The resolution must cover all employees of the employer; i.e. all departments and instrumentalities whose employees are reported to IMRF by the employer. Only employees hired after the date of the resolution will be covered by the new 1000 hour test.. Any employee, who has previously worked under a� # _Lny I t 'R F _jMj,_ eMl Qy-tr_, in an IMRF Position will 'remain under the old 600 hour standard.. ''' Any employee �who should have been enrolled in IMRF before the date of the resolution,, but was not, will also be covered by the old 600 hour standard. If an employee is excluded by an employer under the 1000 hour rule, and later enters full-time employment, he cannot receive pension service credit for the excluded service., If an employee is excluded by one employer under the 1,000 standard and shifts to an employer which retains the 600 hour test he can begin pafticipation 'with the second employer if he works in a 600 1000 hourposition, but may not receive pens , on s%ervice credit for the period with, the first employer. I perl III. Administration of 1000 Hour Standard It should be noted that the administration of IMRF enrollment by employers adopt- ing the 1000 hour standard will be difficult because they have to determine the prior work record of employees hired in the 600 to 1000 hour category to determine whether or not they must be enrolled in IMRF. This is a particularly difficult problem where an employee has worked for a different 114RF employer and the new -Over- employer will not be aware of the fact unless each newemployee i'n the 600 to 1000 hour category is asked. It will be incumbent upon each employer ado,pting the 1000 hour standard to carefully admin'ster the IMRF I program. By adopting the new 1000 hour standard, they are assuming a greater burden in classifying, new employees in order to avoid obligations for employees erroneously not enrolled in IMRF. IV. Elected Officials Some elected officials such as village trustees, city council meinbers, county board members, township officials, etc., who have other full-ti,me employment participate in IMRF on the basis that their public off* ices normally require performance of duty for 600 hours or more per year., If the standard is, raised to 1000 hours, barring unusual circumstances, officials elected in these positions after the effective daft? of the resolution could not meet the 1000 hour standarid. y require Few, If' any, public, of positions of this type require an average of 20 hours of service ple�r week or more. Therefore,, governing bodies, aidopt'ing the '1000 i hour standard should realize that future elected officials in these positions will also be barred from 'participation. V. Employer Cost Savings VI. Reorganizations Where a new governmental unit is formedsolely to take over the functions of an existing unit the same standard for IMRF participation is applied to the new unit. For instance, when a library district is formed to ta,ke over a vel lage library, the village's standard for IMRF participation 'is applied. Where a new unit takes over functions of more than one unit of government, then it must choose either the 600 or 1000 hour standard when entering IMRF. VII. Qualification For Retirement Annuity - Re-employment An employee who at any time worked for an employer who was under the 600 hour standard is under that standard for qualification for a pension. The employee cannot be employed in a 600 hour position and draw a pension. Only employees who had service only for a 1000 hour employer after adoption of the resolution may return to work in a 600 to 1000 hour category without having their pension suspended.
