Chairman Richard Rogers called the meeting to order at 7:33 p.m. Mr. Youngquist made a motion to approve the
minutes of the May 28,2009 meeting; Mr. Donnelly seconded the motion. The minutes were approved 5-0; with
Ms. Haaland abstaining. Chairman Rogers introduced Case PZ-II-09, a request for a Map Amendment to rezone
from II to C~ and. a request for a Conditional Use to operate a Community Center, at 7:34 p.m.
Ms. Andrade, Development Review Planner said the Petitioner for PZ-II-09 was requesting a Map Amendment
to rezone 1750 W. Central from II Limited Industrial to CR Conservation Recreation and a Conditional Use
approval for a community center.
Ms. Andrade stated the subject property is zoned II Limited Industrial and contains an existing one and two-story
office/warehouse building with related improvements. The property is adjacent to II property and to multi-family
residential South across Central Road. Ms. Andrade said the existing structure does not comply with the II bulk
requirements, as it does not meet current setback requirements and the site exceeds 75% lot coverage.
Ms. Andrade stated the Petitioner was requesting a Map Amendment and Conditional Use to establish a
community center on the subject property. The community center would be a not-for-profit organization that
would serve the needs of the Asian-American community as well as the general public. The community center
would carry out multi-dimensional programs in the areas of education, cultural activities, civic affairs, and social
and community services.
Ms. Andrade said the Petitioner's site plan indicated that the footprint of the building would remain as is. The
existing building consists of a southern portion which is two-stories high and a northern portion which is one

Planning & Zoning Commission Meeting June 25, 2009 Page 1 of 5
story high. The parking lot would be repaved and striped. Interior islands would be added to allow for
landscaping.
Ms. Andrade stated the first floor of the building would be occupied with offices, a multi-purpose room, cultural
classrooms, library, gym, and an indoor parking garage. A recreational and cultural room would be located on the
second floor of the southern portion of the building.
Ms. Andrade showed a table that included bulk requirements for the CR Zoning District:
CR District Existing Proposed
Requirements
Setbacks
Front 50' min. 99.68' No chan}1;e
Interior 15' min. 4.78'-west No change
4.97' -east
Rear 20' min. 0' No change'
Lot Covera2e 25% max. 93% 88.75%
Heif!ht 30' max. 30' No change
Ms. Andrade said by rezoning the property to CR, the subject property would maintain its non-conforming status
by not complying with the CR bulk requirements as well. However, the lot coverage would decrease because the
Petitioner proposed to add green space.
Ms. Andrade stated the required parking for the community center is based on the square footage of each space.
A total of91 parking spaces would be required. The proposed site would comply with the required parking by
providing 94 parking spaces, of which 46 would be outdoor spaces and 48 would be indoor parking spaces. The
indoor parking spaces would be double stacked by use of auto lifts that would only be utilized during special
events and operated by designated trained valets. The overhead doors would only open when required.
Ms. Andrade said there were a number of issues that would have to be addressed at the building permit stage. In
particular, the auto lifts would have to comply with all state and local elevator codes. A permit and semi-annual
inspections would be required as well. The building would have to comply with all fire and building codes for
assembly occupancy; including submitting a complete egress analysis and a new fire alarm and sprinkler system.
Additionally, the lifts will have to be certified by a structural engineer and the garage floor is subject to double
stacked vehicle loading requirements.
Ms. Andrade stated the standards for Map Amendments are listed in Section 14.203 .D.8.ofthe Village Zoning
Code. When a Map Amendment is proposed, the Planning and Zoning Commission shall make findings based
upon the evidence presented to it in each specific case with respect to, but not limited to:
· Gompatibility with existing uses and zoning classification of property within the general area;
· Compatibility of the surrounding property with the permitted uses listed in the proposed zoning
classification;
· The suitability of the property for permitted uses listed in the proposed zoning classification.
Ms. Andrade said the proposal to rezone the subject property from 1-1 to CR met the standards for a Map
Amendment because the CR District would be compatible with the surrounding uses and zoning within the
general area of the subject property. The subject property is adjacent to Melas Park to the northwest, multi-family
to the south, and the Public Works municipal building to the east. Additionally, the Westbrook Public School and
field is located one block east of the Subject Property. Melas Park and Westbrook School's field are zoned CR
Conservation Recreation District.

Ms. Andrade stated the standards. for conditional uses are listed in Section 14.203.F.7 of the Village Zoning
Ordinance. The section contains seven specific findings that must be made in order to approve a conditional use.
These standards include:
· 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;
· Adequate provision of utilities, drainage, and design of access and egress.
Ms. Andrade said the proposal met the standards for a Conditional Use because the proposed use as a community
center would be compatible with the surrounding properties and would have minimal impact on the site. The
community center will be a not-for-profit organization that will be committed to serving and meeting the needs of
the Asian-American community and the general public by providing services and programs in various areas, such
as education and culture. Ms. Andrade stated the Petitioner proposed to make exterior improvements to the site
by repaving the parking lot, decreasing the lot coverage, and improving the front fa~ade of the building. Other
departments reviewed the Petitioners' proposal and did not object to the use or find that it would have an adverse
impact on the adjacent properties.
Staff recommended approval of the Map Amendment and Conditional Use with the conditions listed in the Staff
report.
Mr. Youngquist asked if the proposed auto lifts were in any other areas in the Village. Mr. Simmons said that the
auto lifts were originally discussed for the Emerson and Founders Row projects, but not installed. The auto lifts
on this proposed project would be the first in the Village. Mr. Youngquist asked if Staff knew about auto lifts
being installed in surrounding communities. Mr. Simmons stated the City of Chicago has installed them in certain
locations to meet parking requirements. He said he is unaware of other surrounding communities, but the auto
lifts are becoming more prevalent due to properties being re-developed and needing to meet parking requirements.
Mr. Donnelly also confirmed that auto lifts were being installed in Chicago and becoming more a part of zoning.
He stated there are several designs of auto lifts out in the market and the design for this proposal is an easy design
should work well for the proposal. Mr. Donnelly stated there would be no problems for proposed auto lifts as
long as the Petitioner has the structure to support the lift, inspections on the lift, and trained operators.
Chairman Rogers swore in all representatives that were speaking on behalf of the Petitioner. Tony Ryan ofMDM
Design Group, 1016 W. Lunt, Schaumburg, Illinois; stated he is the architect for the project. Chris James, 400
Eagle Drive, Elk Grove Village, Illinois said he worked with Mr. Ryan at MOM Design Group as a consultant.
Mr. Ryan stated Dasom Community Center currently operates out of a small space in Des Plaines, Illinois. The
opportunity came to purchase this building for expansion. Mr. Ryan said his firm was hired to see if the building
would work to comply with Village Codes.
Mr. Ryan showed a site plan of the existing building with the non-conforming setbacks. He explained proposed
improvements to the site that included repairing the parking lot, connecting the proper drainage pipes, and
discussed the landscape plan. .
Mr. Ryan showed and discussed the building elevations. He stated the windows in the office element would be
replaced. The front entrance would be redesigned to indicate the front of the building. The concrete area to the
east of the office area would be painted to match the masonry of the bricks.

Mr. Ryan discussed the proposed floor plan for the first floor. Staff offices would be located in the front of the
building with an elevator and a staircase that would be relocated. There would be a multi-purpose room/cafeteria
next to the offices with classrooms along the western side of the building. Mr. Ryan said the higher portion of the
building (30 feet) would be where the multi-purpose gymnasium' would be located.
Mr. Ryan discussed the indoor parking area in the center of the building. The parking area would be separated
with a fire wall. Mr. Ryan stated that he discussed the proposed indoor parking garage with the Village's Fire
Marshall and everything seemed to be fine.
Mr. Ryan said the second floor area above the offices would be the teen area. Some parts of the building will not
be used daily. The operation of the building would be seven days a week. Mr. Ryan also discussed the civil
drainage system where the building would hook up along Central Road resulting in a permit that would need to be
obtained from the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) who holds jurisdiction over Central Road.
Chairman Rogers asked if Mr. Ryan considered water retention or detention. Mr. Ryan stated because of the size
of the building, it was not necessary. If retention/detention was needed, Mr. Ryan said that they would use
storage pipes underground.
Chairman Rogers asked Mr. Ryan if he has had any experience with the elevator lifts. Mr. Ryan stated that one of
the members of Dasom has had experience with the lifts in Chicago. Chairman Rogers asked if there was
adequate power in the building for the lifts, Mr. Ryan said there was enough power.
Keith Youngquist said he was impressed with the proposed use of the subject property.
There was general discussion on when the subject building was built and how long it had been vacant.
Mr. Beattie asked how many parking spots would be utilized; he understood the lifts would be n~eded for special
events. Mr. Ryan confirmed that the lifts would be needed for special events, but the parking spaces outside
would be used for the daily operations. Mr. Beattie confirmed that parking was just on side of the eastern portion
of the property, not along the building.
Mr. F1oros asked how long Dasom Community Church has been in Des Plaines and in operation. David Lee, 525
S. Dryden Place, Arlington Heights, Illinois and Byung Park, 296 E. Huron, Vernon Hills, Illinois said Mr. Lee
serves as Pastor for Dasom and Mr. Park is a church member. Mr. Park stated that Dasom has been in Des
Plaines for six years, but has been in the area (including Mount Prospect at Wolf and Euclid) for 33 years under a
different name. Mr. Park said Dasom has been officially designated as an organization for five years and has been
registered as a not-for-profit organization for two and a half years. Mr. Lee said Dasom focuses on community
service. Mr. Lee stated he would like to offer English as a Second language, lunch and additional services for
seniors. With their own multi""purpose facility, they will be able to offer organized sports. Mr. Lee stated that
they've previously been limited due to the amount of space at their current location.
Chairman Rogers swore in Peter Olesen, 500 W. Central, Mount Prospect, Illinois. Mr. Olesen discussed the
traffic study for the proposed use. He stated there was a large aQlount of parking (94 spaces) for the building. He
stated the type of use would spread the cars all over throughout the day as far as arriving and departing. Mr.
Olesen discussed peak hour traffic for the proposed site; he said there should not be any impact on the site.
Chairman Rogers brought the discussion back to board.
