Category BUSINESSNEW ActionType Information The Petitioner, • Bouzas, toexpand an already ' !variation maximum lot coverage of 43.4% (approved in 2019),, to 48.15%. The Petitioner i, proposing to widen the existing driveway by approximately 240 square feet by adding 2' x 2' stone pavers to each side of the driveway. The portion of the driveway nearest to the garage would widen from 29' 11" to 32' 11" with 18" x 2' stone pavers,, to remain under the 33' maximum driveway width for a 3 car garage. The increased width of the circular drive portion would increase from 12' to 16'. A significant portion of the primary structure is located within the 40' required front yard setback, making it challenging for the Petitioner to meet the maximum front yard lot coverage of 35%. The overall lot coverage ratio remains below the allowable 35% in the RX district.

Elm Street BRIEF SUMMARY OF REQUEST The Petitioner is seeking a variation to the maximum allowed front lot coverage. Per the R -X single family residential zoning district, a 35% maximum impervious surface is allowed. The Petitioner is proposing a 48.15% front yard lot coverage. In 2019, the Subject Property received a variation to increase front lot coverage to 43.4%. The request now exceeds 25% of the regulation, thus the case is Village Board final. MIJ 2020 Village of Mount Prospect Zoning Map I .. . ... . .......... — 1. � 41 '. 1, - EXISTING EXISTING LAND USE/SITE SURROUNDING ZONING & LAND USE SIZE OF ZONING IMPROVEMENTS North: R -X Single Family Residential, PROPERTY R -X Single Family Detached Single Family residential 0.52 Acres Residential Residential East: R -X Single Family Residential, residential South: R -X Single Family Residential, residential West: R-1 Single Family Residential, residential STAFF RECOMMENDATION DENY E BACKGROUND/PROPERTY HISTORY The Subject Property previously had 7 permits issued for various improvements on the property. In 2019, a variation was approved by the Planning & Zoning Commission to increase front yard lot coverage to 43.4%. The variation allowed a new circular drive, and further improvements of the permit included a 2nd story addition on the primary structure, and a third attached garage bay. The 2nd story and third garage bay were both constructed within the buildable area of the property and therefore have no impact on the requested variation request. PROPOSAL The Petitioner proposes to add 2' x 2' stones to widen the existing circular drive, and 2' x 18" stones to widen the driveway leading to the attached three car garage. Currently, the width of the circular drive is 12', and the maximum width of the driveway to the garage is 29' 11". If approved, the new width of the circular drive would be 16', and the maximum width of the driveway leading to the garage would be 32' 11". A significant portion of the primary structure exists in the 40' required front yard setback, thus increasing the front lot coverage past the 35% maximum. The Petitioner is requesting a 48.15% front lot coverage, or a 4.75% increase to the variation previously approved in 2019. The proposal is 4.4% more than 25% of the regulation, meaning the request is Village Board final. The table below highlights the bulk requirements within the R -X single family residential zoning district: Lot Requirements R -X Code Existing Proposed Requirements Driveway Leading to the Attached 3 ......... . .... 33' 29" 11"" 32,f 1111 Car Garage Maximum Width Circular Driveway Width 261 12' 16 Front Lot Coverage Max. 35% 33.47% 48.15% Overall Lot Coverage Max. 35% 27.1% 28.1% VARIATION STANDARDS The standards for a variation are listed in Section 14.203.0.9 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. The Petitioner states that he bought the house with the non -conformity already existing, and that 729 square feet of the home exists in the required front yard setback. The Petitioner further states he would like 15 additional driveway width to enter and exit vehicles on the circular drive and driveway leading to the existing garage, and currently there is not enough room to do so without inconvenience. The Petitioner further states the variation would not alter the character of the neighborhood, and that with the home renovation, drainage has improved on the property compared to previous conditions. In reviewing the request, staff is supportive of the variation request. Staff believes a hardship exists as the location of the house presents significant challenges toward any improvements or work in the front yard. The Public Works Department has no issues with the request as it relates to storm water drainage, and the overall lot coverage is still significantly less than what is allowed. Staff finds that the standards for variation have 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 approve the following motion: 1. A variation to allow front yard coverage of 48.15% for the property located at 918 S. Elm Street for the purpose of widening the existing driveway, as shown on the plans in the administrative content section of the case. The Village Board's decision is final for this case.

PZ -25-20 Hearing Date: January 14, 2021 PROPERTY ADDRESS: 918 S. Elm Street PETITIONER: John Bouzas PUBLICATION DATE: December 30, 2020 REQUEST: VAR: Front Lot Coverage MEMBERS PRESENT: Joseph Donnelly William Beattie Lisa Griffin Agostino Filippone Walter Szymczak MEMBERS ABSENT: Sharon Otteman Norbert Mizwicki Thomas Fitzgerald STAFF MEMBERS PRESENT Connor Harmon, Development Planner Jason Shallcross, AICP, Senior Planner Bill Cooney, AICP, Director of Community Development INTERESTED PARTIES: John Bouzas 1 Chairman Donnelly called the meeting to order at 7:02 pm. Commissioner Filippone made a motion seconded by Commissioner Szymczak to approve the minutes from the Planning and Zoning Commission meeting on December 10, 2020. The minutes were approved 5-0. Chairman Donnelly introduced case, PZ -25-20: 918 S. Elm Street as a variation to the maximum allowed front lot coverage. This case is Village Board final. Mr. Harmon explained the Petitioners request and stated in 2019 the Petitioner applied for, and received approval for the same request, and is requesting a greater front lot coverage percentage to widen the existing driveway. Mr. Harmon then described the Subject Property, and stated the Petitioner is requesting to widen the driveway with 2' x 2' paver stones on each side of the driveway. Mr. Harmon further stated the area of the driveway where it is the widest, which is near the garage, is only proposed to have 18" x 2' paver stones to keep the driveway under the 33' maximum for a 3 car garage. Mr. Harmon explained the proposal meets all other lot requirements, besides the front lot coverage, which is proposed to be 48.15%. The Public Works Department had no issues with the request, and Mr. Harmon stated that staff is supportive of the request. With that, Mr. Harmon stated that staff finds that the variation request complies with the standards as Planning & Zoning Commission Meeting —January 14, 2020 PZ -25-20 17 listed in the Zoning Ordinance and that staff is therefore supportive of the request. 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 approve of the following motion: 1. "A variation to allow front lot coverage of 48.15% for the property located at 918 S. Elm Street for the purpose of widening the existing driveway, as shown on the plans in the administrative content section of the case." Mr. Harmon stated that the Village Board's decision is final in this case. Chairman Donnelly introduced the Petitioner, John Bouzas, 918 S. Elm Street. Mr. Bouzas stated various family members require wheelchairs to get to, and enter/exit vehicles, and need the widened driveway to avoid going into the grass. Chairman Donnelly asked if the family members could not enter and exit from the garage. Mr. Bouzas stated he has triplets which will eventually have cars, and those cars will take up too much space in the garage and driveway leading to the garage. Chairman Donnelly asked if the previous case in 2019 was to widen the circular drive to meet code, and simultaneously go above the front lot coverage maximum. Mr. Harmon stated that is correct, the Petitioner obtained a variation, and applied for the permit, and constructed a home renovation and new driveway as part of the permit approval. Chairman Donnelly saw no other questions or comments for the Petitioner, and started discussion among the Commission. Commissioner Beattie asked if the previous request had the circular drive at 12'. Mr. Harmon stated that is correct. Chairman Donnelly stated he has trouble seeing a hardship with the request. Commissioner Beattie stated the overall lot coverage is still under the maximum. Commissioner Filippone asked why the Petitioner didn't originally ask for a 16' wide driveway. Commissioner Filippone further stated the pavers aren't completely flat, thus using a wheelchair on that surface wouldn't be entirely practical. Planning & Zoning Commission Meeting —January 14, 2020 PZ -25-20 18 Mr. Harmon stated that had the house been properly setback, no variation would have been needed, and the Petitioner could obtain permit approval for his request. Hearing no further comments Chairman Donnelly closed the hearing and asked for a motion. Commissioner Beattie made a motion seconded by Commissioner Szymczak to approve: 1. "A variation to allow front lot coverage of 48.15% for the property located at 918 S. Elm Street for the purpose of widening the existing driveway, as shown on the plans in the administrative content section of the case." UPON ROLL CALL AYES: Beattie, Griffin, Szymczak NAYS: Filippone, Donnelly The recommendation was approved by a vote of 3-2. Hearing one additional case, Commissioner Filippone made a motion seconded by Commissioner Beattie and the meeting was adjourned at 9:20 PM.

Cooney, AICP Director of Community Development Village of Mount Prospect 50 S. Emerson Street Mount Prospect, IL 60056 Via email: bcooney@mountprospect.org Dear Mr. Cooney, The Planning & Zoning Commission recommended approval of 918 variance by a 3-2 vote. Our request is scheduled to go before Village Board for the ordinance's first reading (FEB 02, 2021). We are requesting that the Village Board waive the second reading and take final action at FEB 027 2021 because we want to start the project as soon as possible in order to obtain our final permits for our project as a whole. appreciate your assistance in facilitating this request. Should you have any questions, feel free to contact us at Oohnb@ypvdist.com). Sincerely. John Bouzas 918 S Elm Street Mount Prospect II, 60056 20
