ZBA 20-Z-93 and ZBA 21-SU-93, 1000 Central Road ZBA 20-Z-93 &
The Petitioner is requesting a Special Use in ZBA 21-SU-93
the nature of a Planned Unit Development, in order 1000 CENTRAL RD
to develop this 8.76 acre parcel with 54 townhomes
and 9 single family homes. The Zoning Board of
Appeals recommended granting this request by a vote
of 4-1.
Also requested is an amendment to the Generalized
Land Use Map (Comprehensive Plan) to r~flect the
Multi-Family Low Density and Single Family Residences,
rather than the existing Light Industrial use as well
as modifications from the Development Code (Chapter 16)
relative to the width of the right-of-way within the
development and setback of detention area from
structures. The Plan Commission recommended granting these
requests by a vote of 7-0.
Discussion of this development had been continued from
regular meeting of the Village Board on April 6, 1993
in order to additional time to work out some details
relative to this plan.
A meeting was held last week with the developer, staff
and elected officials. Trustee Hoefert and Trustee
Wilks, along with Michael Janonis, Village Manager,
acted as liaisons between the residents and Kimball Hill
to discuss possible changes in the plan and to address
some of the concerns of the residents relative to increased
traffic and drainage.
Trustee Hoefert gave a brief status report on the meeting.
.He stated discussion at the meeting seemed to resolve
concerns about stormwater detention for the development.
Trustee Hoefert stated that all requirements of the
flood control Ordinance would be met before any
permits would be issued. He also explained that
additional single family homes were not feasible due to
profit margin and the fact that the proposed additional
homes would back up to the vacated stub street, rather than
the original purpose of backing up to an existing single
family home. Also discussed, were possible traffic
regulations governing the ingress and egress to the
development.
Members of the Board as well as residents of the area
expressed appreciation for the considerations given in
this matter.
There was also discussion relative to the possibility of
traffic leaving this development and cutting across
Centrals. Road onto Cathy Lane on the south side of Central
and using the residential side streets to avoid traffic delays.
It was suggested that conditions be added to the
Planned Unit Development establishing one-way
restrictions on the westernmost entrance to the
development. It was also suggested that the Safety
Commission examine issues related to cut-through
traffic from Central Road using Cathy lane.
Trustee Hoefert, seconded by Trustee Wilks, moved
to concur with the recommendation of the Zoning
Board of Appeals and grant the Special Use in the
nature of a Planned Unit Development and permit the
construction of 54 single family homes and 54
townhomes, with the conditions that a covenant
would be placed on Lot #1 prohibiting a fence, that
no landscaping be planted beyond the building line
that would obstruct the vision of a motorist, and
that regulations be established for the new roadway
be proposed for this development, which regulations
would govern traffic entering exiting this
development.
