Chairman Donnelly called the meeting to order at 7:01 PM. Vice Chairman Beattie made a motion
seconded by Commissioner Szymczak to approve the minutes from the Planning and Zoning Commission
meeting on February 28, 2024. The minutes were approved 4-0.
Chairman Donnelly introduced Case No. PZ -02-24 / 504 Hi Lusi Avenue / Conditional Use: Residential
Setback Reduction.
Ms. Choi stated the subject property was annexed into the Village in 1925 and the current home was
built in 1938. An exterior remodel was completed in 2018 including the removal of an attached single -
car garage. The former garage was 10.2' x 21.22' (210 SF) and set back approximately 6.25' from the
property line in compliance with the side yard setback. After the remodel and removal of the garage, the
current owner parks on an exposed concrete pad where the one -car garage was previously located.
Ms. Choi continued to explain that the petitioner proposes to construct an attached one -car garage
along the north side of the home in approximately the same location as the previous garage. The
Planning & Zoning Commission Meeting— March 28, 2024
PZ -02-24
Page 2 of 37
proposed garage will be approximately 3' wider than the previous garage and therefore would encroach
1.81' and 1.96' into the 5' side yard setback. The garage would be set back 3.04' and 3.19' from the
north lot line. The setback would be reduced approximately 36% and 39%; therefore, the request
requires Village Board approval. An alternative location for a detached garage was discussed but the
petitioner favors the proposed location. The reasons given were that moving the garage into the rear
yard would require the removal of a number of existing trees, including one of a significant size. Another
reason is that there is a grade change (down) from the rear of the home into the back yard which may
create an additional difficulty in negotiating access to a detached garage.
Ms. Choi shared existing and proposed elevations for the garage. The proposed elevations included
views to the north, south, east, and west.
Further, she showed a floor plan and stated that the attached two -car garage will have an area of 338 SF
and will measure approximately 13' x 26', according to the floor plan.
A table was presented to the committee showing the bulk requirements for the R -A Single Family
Residential district with the existing and proposed conditions of the subject property. Ms. Choi stated
that staff feels this request meets the standards for a conditional use and does not believe the
petitioner's request will be inconsistent with the character of the neighborhood. Further, the
petitioner's request conforms to all other bulk regulations other than the side yard setback along the
north property line.
Finally, she stated that staff recommends that the Planning and Zoning Commission make a motion to
recommend approval of the following:
A conditional use to reduce the interior (north) side yard setback from 5 feet to 3.04 feet and 3.19
feet for the construction of an attached single -car garage at the property known as 504 Hi Lusi Ave,
subject to the following conditions:
• The improvements shall be in general conformance with the site plan prepared by Heartland
Garage Builders, bearing the latest revision date of January 17, 2024, and the plat of
survey/site plan prepared by Heartland Garage Builders, bearing the latest revision date of
April 18, 2023, while also meeting all code requirements, and
• A grading plan be included in the submittal for the building permit confirming adequate
drainage along the side yard.
Ms. Choi stated that the Village Board's decision is final for this case.
Chairman Donnelly then asked commissioners if they had any questions for staff. Vice Chairman Beattie
asked for a clarification of what a grading plan is for his own edification. Ms. Choi stated that she
believes the public works department wants to ensure water near the proposed garage drains toward
the front or back of the property. She explained that it shows the contours of the property and how it
will be recontoured to facilitate drainage.
Planning & Zoning Commission Meeting— March 28, 2024
PZ -02-24
Page 3 of 37
Chairman Donnelly then asked for clarification of how the garage was removed in the first place, and
Ms. Choi explained that the code does not explicitly state that a garage must be fully replaced if it is
removed, but rather that a replacement parking space suffices.
After staff finished answering questions from the committee, Chairman Donnelly swore in the
petitioner, Andrew Venamore of Heartland Garage Builders, at 602 Academy Drive, Northbrook IL, and
the homeowner, Keith Calvert at 504 Hi Lusi Avenue, Mount Prospect IL, to explain their case for the
conditional use permit.
Mr. Venamore reiterated the explanation of the conditional use, stating that the idea behind this
structure is to make it deeper and more suitable for modern vehicles. He went on to explain the details
of the design process and how they settled on their final proposal. Specifically, he discussed their
interest in keeping an open backyard and not wanting to deal with backyard grading issues.
After explaining more architectural details of the proposed garage, Mr. Venamore and Mr. Calvert
presented letters from neighbors showing their support for the project. Most notably, they presented a
letter from the neighboring property owner to the north who would be directly affected by the new
garage. This property owner, Brett Ehlman of 501 W Shabonee Trail, signed a letter stating "/ have
reviewed this plan for the proposed Attached Garage at the Calvert residence at 504 S. Hi Lusi Avenue,
Mt. Prospect and 1 have no objection to the improvement."
Chairman Donnelly asked if there would be any concerns with the distance from Mr. Calvert's proposed
garage to Mr. Ehlman's house. Deputy Planning Director Shallcross said any issues arising from building -
to -building concerns would be handled during the building approval process.
Chairman Donnelly asked if there are any current concerns with flooding and Mr. Calvert said there have
been no flooding issues in their time owning the property or any other problems to their knowledge.
Chairman Donnelly asked if the applicant could confirm they are aware they will need to handle any
flooding issues that arise, as discussed in comments provided by the Village Public Works Department.
Mr. Calvert confirmed his awareness.
Hearing no further comments or questions, Chairman Donnelly closed the hearing and asked for a roll
call.
UPON ROLL CALL AYES: Szymczak, Mizwicki, Beattie, Donnelly
NAYS: None
The motion was approved by a vote of 4-0.
After hearing no more items of new business and no citizens to be heard, Vice Chairman Beattie made a
motion seconded by Commissioner Szymczak, and the meeting was adjourned at 7:23 PM.

PZZ24-000008 / 206 Prairie Avenue / CU: Rear Yard Setback
Reduction
May 23, 2024 - REGULAR MEETING OF THE MOUNT PROSPECT
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
NEW BUSINESS
Action Item
The "Petitioner" and property owner, Roseann Schumacher of Prairie Avenue Homes LLC, is
seeking conditional use approval to reduce the rear yard setback at 206 Prairie Ave ("Subject
Property") to construct a single-family residence that encroaches five feet into the required
rear yard.
The Subject Property was disconnected from the Village of Arlington Heights and annexed into
the Village of Mount Prospect ("Village") in 2006 via Ordinance No. 5565. In 2018, the Subject
Property was created as part of a subdivision and rezoning approval that resulted in the
formation of five R-1 zoned lots of record (four residential lots and one lot for stormwater
detention) otherwise known as the Prairie Avenue Subdivision. As part of this approval, a
portion of land was dedicated to the Village for the Prairie Avenue cul-de-sac serving the five
new lots, and variations to the front yard setback requirement were granted for three lots
abutting the cul-de-sac. The Subject Property is Lot 3 of the Prairie Avenue Subdivision and
there is no building permit history as it has sat vacant since the subdivision was created.
Discussion
The Petitioner proposes to maximize the distance between the future residence on the Subject
Property and the recently constructed home to the east (Lot 4 or 200 Prairie Avenue). The
Petitioner's concern is the visual intrusion imposed on Lot 4 if the future home on Lot 3
adhered strictly to the zoning code. If the future home on Lot 3 fully complied with code, the
narrowest distance between the two homes would be fifteen feet (15').
If approved, the conditional use would increase the separation distance to 26'-10" and the
increased separation distance between the two homes would require the reduction of the rear
yard setback from twenty-five feet (25') to twenty -feet (20'). A conditional use to reduce the
rear yard setback is therefore required for this proposal. The proposal complies with all other
bulk regulations.
Conditional Use Standards
Page 5 of 37
The standards for conditional uses are listed in Section 14.203.F.8 of the Village Zoning
Ordinance and include seven specific findings that must be made in order to approve a
conditional use. The following list is a summary of these findings:
• The conditional use will not have a detrimental impact on public health, safety, morals,
comfort, or general welfare;
• The conditional use will not be injurious to the use, enjoyment, or value of other
properties in the vicinity or impede the orderly development of those properties;
• There is adequate provision for utilities, drainage, and design of access and egress to
minimize congestion on Village streets; and
• The request is in compliance of the conditional use with the provisions of the
Comprehensive Plan, Zoning Code, and other Village Ordinances
According to the Petitioner's application, the proposal will not be detrimental to public health,
comfort or general welfare since the rear of the residence will not be encroaching into the
utility easement areas of the Subject Property and will meet all previously approved
engineering requirements for utility easements and storm water drainage requirements. Per
the Petitioner, there will be no impact to ingress or egress associated with the conditional use
request, and the property owners that reside directly behind the Subject Property fully support
the request.
Staff feels that this request meets the standards for a conditional use. Staff does not believe
the Petitioner's request will be inconsistent with the character of the neighborhood. Further,
the Petitioner's request conforms to all other bulk regulations other than the rear yard setback
requirement. As of the writing of this report, the Petitioner has submitted seven (7) letters
from adjacent property owners in support of the conditional use request. Staff has not
received any additional public comments pertaining to this request.
Alternatives
Staff finds that the standards contained in Section 14.203.F of the zoning ordinance 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 conditional use to allow a twenty -foot (20') rear yard setback at the property known
as 206 Prairie Avenue, subject to the following conditions:
a. The improvements shall be in general conformance with the plans and drawings
prepared by Reibel & Associates PC, bearing the latest revision date of 3/29/2024, and meet
all code requirements;
b. Any future accessory structures to be located on the subject property shall satisfy all
applicable bulk requirements."
2. Action at the discretion of the Planning and Zoning Commission.
Staff Recommendation
To recommend approval of the conditional use to allow a twenty -foot (20') rear yard setback
at the property known as 206 Prairie Avenue, subject to the conditions listed in the staff
report.

BACKGROUND / PROPERTY HISTORY
The Subject Property was disconnected from the Village of Arlington Heights and annexed into the Village of
Mount Prospect ("Village") in 2006 via Ordinance No. 5565. In 2018, the Subject Property was created as
part of a subdivision and rezoning approval that resulted in the formation of five R-1 zoned lots of record
(four residential lots and one lot for stormwater detention) otherwise known as the Prairie Avenue
Subdivision. As part of this approval, a portion of land was dedicated to the Village for the Prairie Avenue
cul-de-sac serving the five new lots, and variations to the front yard setback requirement were granted for
three lots abutting the cul-de-sac. The Subject Property is Lot 3 of the Prairie Avenue Subdivision and there
is no building permit history as it has sat vacant since the subdivision was created.
PROPOSAL
The Petitioner proposes to maximize the distance between the future residence on the Subject Property and
the recently constructed home to the east (Lot 4 or 200 Prairie Avenue). The Petitioner's concern is the
visual intrusion imposed on Lot 4 if the future home on Lot 3 adhered strictly to the zoning code. If the
future home on Lot 3 fully complied with code, the narrowest distance between the two homes would be
fifteen feet (15').

If approved, the conditional use would increase the separation distance to 26'-10" and the increased
separation distance between the two homes would require the reduction of the rear yard setback from
twenty-five feet (25') to twenty -feet (20'). A conditional use to reduce the rear yard setback is therefore
required for this proposal.

Ms. Ann Choi
Dear Ms. Choi:
This letter is in regard to the Conditional Use of Setback for 206 S. Prairie, Lot 3 in the Prairie
Avenue Subdivision, and sym-WI& to address eac-Wiu A. 4 . 7
the Planning and Zoning Commission: xPWPMrIVVY-
a. The establishment of a five foot variance located within a very small area of the 151, rear
yarW. rea will not prove to be detrimental to the public health, since it is not encroaching the
utility easement areas of the property and is a private property location and, therefore will
not have any impact on the public health, comfort or general welfare.
b. The location of the five foot variance is immediately adjacent to Lot 5, which is a storm
water detention area of the subdivision, where no home shall ever be built. Furthermore, the
W wner of lot 2 and the owners of homes on Leonard Avenue, located directly behind lot 3,
have fully supported this variance, as evidenced by the attached letters, indicating with their
full support that they do not view this variance as a source of diminishing the value of their
property.
G. The subdivision is completed and this variance will not impede or negatively impact
surrounding property.
d. The variance will not impact utilities, access roads, and drainage since the lot shall meet all
previously approved engineering requirements for utility easements and storm water
drainage requirements.
e. There is no impact to ingress or egress associated with this variance.
f. Lot 3 fully complies with the underlying fully approved status of: Village of Mount
Prospect zoning, engineering, Plat of Subdivision, MWRD storm water requirements, and
the Elk Grove Township sewer system requirements.
g. Lot 3 in all other respects conforms to the applicable regulations of the district in which it is
located, subject to this variance being approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission.
Respectfully submi11ed,
Norman Hassinger

206 S. Prairie Avenue
The Prairie Avenue SUbdivision is considering building a new home on Lot #3 that
is between Lot #4 and the detention area thin the subdivision.
The home that we are considering building on Lot #3 can be built within the front
and rear yard setbacks, with no variance required from the Village of Mount
Prospect. However, it is our view it would be more desirable to move the new
home toward the Southwest within the lot.
This location will improve the separation between the horne built oil Lot #4 and
provide a more centrally located home within lot #3.
It will however cause the left rear corner of the horrie to be five (5) feet beyond the
rear lot setback line, witln a rear yard that is 1.51. feet in width. All other areas of
the horne will be significantly separated from the rear yard setback line.
The basic hardship is the shape of the lot within a cul -des -sac, which is unique to
the remaining property within the approved Prairie Subdivision. There is no
intention to receive a financial gain from this request, nor will it be detrimental to
the public welfare or the adjoining property owners.
To illustrate the adjoining property owner s'support for this request, we informed
the adjoining horne owners of this proposed re -location of the home on Lot #3 and
requested the to submit a signed document if they found this acceptable,
Attached you will find the adjoining home owners'written support for this request.

Page 34 of 37
BACKGROUND / PROPERTY HISTORY
The Subject Property was disconnected from the Village of Arlington Heights and annexed into the Village of
Mount Prospect ("Village") in 2006 via Ordinance No. 5565. In 2018, the Subject Property was created as
part of a subdivision and rezoning approval that resulted in the formation of five R-1 zoned lots of record
(four residential lots and one lot for stormwater detention) otherwise known as the Prairie Avenue
Subdivision. As part of this approval, a portion of land was dedicated to the Village for the Prairie Avenue
cul-de-sac serving the five new lots, and variations to the front yard setback requirement were granted for
three lots abutting the cul-de-sac. The Subject Property is Lot 3 of the Prairie Avenue Subdivision and there
is no building permit history as it has sat vacant since the subdivision was created.
PROPOSAL
The Petitioner proposes to maximize the distance between the future residence on the Subject Property and
the recently constructed home to the east (Lot 4 or 200 Prairie Avenue). The Petitioner's concern is the
visual intrusion imposed on Lot 4 if the future home on Lot 3 adhered strictly to the zoning code. If the
future home on Lot 3 fully complied with code, the narrowest distance between the two homes would be
fifteen feet (15').

If approved, the conditional use would increase the separation distance to 26'-10" and the increased
separation distance between the two homes would require the reduction of the rear yard setback from
twenty-five feet (25') to twenty -feet (20'). A conditional use to reduce the rear yard setback is therefore
required for this proposal.

CONDITIONAL USE STANDARDS
The standards for conditional uses are listed in Section 14.203.F.8 of the Village Zoning Ordinance and
include seven specific findings that must be made in order to approve a conditional use. The following list is
a summary of these findings:
• The conditional use will not have a detrimental impact on the public health, safety, morals, comfort,
or general welfare;
• The conditional use will not be injurious to the use, enjoyment, or value of other properties in the
vicinity or impede the orderly development of those properties;
• There is adequate provision for utilities, drainage, and design of access and egress to minimize
congestion on Village streets; and
• The request is in compliance of the conditional use with the provisions of the Comprehensive Plan,
Zoning Code, and other Village Ordinances
According to the Petitioner's application, the proposal will not be detrimental to public health, comfort or
general welfare since the rear of the residence will not be encroaching into the utility easement areas of the
Subject Property and will meet all previously approved engineering requirements for utility easements and
storm water drainage requirements. Per the Petitioner, there will be no impact to ingress or egress
associated with the conditional use request, and the property owners that reside directly behind the Subject
Property fully support the request.
Staff feels that this request meets the standards for a conditional use. Staff does not believe the Petitioner's
request will be inconsistent with the character of the neighborhood. Further, the Petitioner's request
conforms to all other bulk regulations other than the rear yard setback.
Staff finds that the standards for conditional use 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 conditional use to allow a twenty -foot (20') rear yard setback at the property known as 206 Prairie
Avenue, subject to the following conditions:
a. The improvements shall be in general conformance with the plans and drawings prepared by
Reibel & Associates PC, bearing the latest revision date of 3/29/2024, and meet all code
requirements;
b. Any future accessory structures to be located on the subject property shall satisfy all applicable
bulk requirements."
