A. PZ-17-10, 501 Midway Drive, Niagara Educational Services, Inc.
nd
PZ-17-10, 501 Mayor Wilks presented for a second (2) reading an ordinance granting a Conditional
MIDWAY DRIVE Use to operate a community center and school for property located at 501 Midway Drive.
At the request of the petitioner and with Village Board approval the second reading of this
stthrd
ordinance has been deferred three (3) times; March 1, March 15 and May 3.
Mr. William Cooney, Community Development Director, provided background information
regarding the petitioner’s original request for a Conditional Use to operate a community
nd
center and school. Mr. Cooney stated the petitioner had requested the 2 reading again
be deferred but Mr. Yasar Senlick, President of the Turkish Society of Chicago was in
attendance to provide an update of the project.
Mr. Senlick provided an overview of 1) the contributions of the Turkish organization to the
community and humanity and 2) status of the project including construction budget;
financial resources, fundraisers and completion date.
Mr. Senlick stated the estimated cost of the project is $6.5 million; the bank is proposing a
loan of approximately $4.1 million if the organization can put up $2,254,000 in equity
against total building. Since the last meeting with the Village the organization has secured
$1.5 million in promised donations and raised $120,000 at a recent fundraiser. At this time
the architectural drawings are almost complete; anticipate a completion date of May 2012.
Mr. Senlick indicated Fifth Third Bank has requested additional documentation and he is
confident the Bank will provide a letter of commitment for the loan at that time. Would like
nd
to defer second (2) reading until June.
Village Board Comments
Project has made progress since the last Village Board meeting.
Project has a large community of supporters.
Lingering projects often do not reach completion – completion of school and center
would be welcome.
Willing to defer one more time.
In response to questions from Mr. Senlick Village Manager Janonis stated if the
organization came forward with a commitment letter from the bank that would satisfy the
Village Board; demonstrate firm commitment for financing/completion of project.
Trustee Hoefert provided insight into the review process by the bank stating the bank’s
final determination typically is based on the appraisal; the appraisal process could take
nd
thirty (30) days. Trustee Hoefert suggested the 2 reading be brought back the first
meeting in August; allow time for bank to make final determination. If letter of commitment
nd
is issued sooner, the second (2) reading of the ordinance could be brought back before
nd
August 2.
Trustee Korn stated he would vote in support of the deferral but his position on approval of
the final project remains the same; he will not support the request for the Conditional Use.
While he hopes they are successful this time, the petitioner has for a number of years
failed to meet the obligations of the proposed project.
Mr. Senlick introduced the Project Manager who provided additional information:
No interior work is being done.
Reducing costs – modifying previous architectural plans
This weekend’s event at the property is outdoors.

Use and Variations granted pursuant to Ordinance No. 5692 adopted May 20, 2008 for an
CONDITIONAL USE
additional two (2) years.
AND VARIATIONS
EXTENSION
Community Development Director William Cooney provided background information stating
a request to extend the Conditional Use and Variations was previously approved for one
(1) year at the January 19, 2010 Village Board meeting. However, due to the current
economic downtown the Petitioner has yet to construct the three-unit rowhome
development. The Petitioner is seeking approval to renew the request for an additional two
years; construction dependent on improvements in residential markets.
Mayor Wilks stated she has concerns regarding extension of the Conditional Use and the
signage that is currently on the property.
Mr. Cooney stated if the extension is not granted the Conditional Use will expire and
petitioner would need to start over. If the Village Board is comfortable with project;
approve the extension.
Village Board Comments
Developer is not looking for financing – looking for customers.
Prudent businessman that will not build without customers.
Needs sign to sell units; removal of sign will diminish opportunities.
Project is good – poor economy.
Property will remain vacant whether extension is approved or not; support extension
At the request of Trustee Hoefert, Mr. Cooney will find out if the For Sale sign is for the
townhomes or property without the building.
Trustee Zadel, seconded by Trustee Polit, moved to approve the request for Village
Board approval to extend the Conditional Use and Variations granted pursuant to
Ordinance No. 5692 adopted May 20, 2008 for an additional two (2) years; extension
approved to May 17, 2013.

PZ-08-11, 1015 N. C. PZ-08-11, 1015 North Elmhurst Road, Bright Light Sign Company
st
ELMHURST ROAD Mayor Wilks presented for a 1 reading an ordinance granting certain variations for
SIGN VARIATIONS signage for property located at 1015 North Elmhurst Road. This ordinance grants
variations for signage (wall signs) for the Old Navy Store currently under construction
at Randhurst Village. The Planning and Zoning Commission denied the request by a
vote of 3-2.
Community Development Director William Cooney stated the petitioner is appealing
the Planning and Zoning Commission’s denial of the Variations request. Mr. Cooney
stated the Petitioner proposes to install a projecting sign on the front elevation of the
Old Navy store; measuring twenty three (23) square feet in area and thirty two feet in
height, the sign exceeds the maximum area and height permitted by the Village Sign
Code by sixteen (16) square feet and eighteen (18) square feet respectively. The
projecting sign would be located on the buildings architectural fin, extending from the
store’s front façade. The architectural fin is a unique building design element that
would be consistent with the overall design and character of the Randhurst Village
shopping Center. In addition, the Petitioner proposes to install a wall sign on the front
façade of the store. As proposed the sign will measure one hundred (125) square feet;
exceeds the maximum size permitted by the Village Sign Code by eighty seven and
one half (87.5) square feet.
Mayor Wilks questioned the appeal process and whether this item would require a
super majority vote for approval. She also recommended the appeal process for
Planning and Zoning “final” cases be made part of the Village Code.
Village Manager Janonis indicated the Petitioner’s request is being addressed as
signage for the Randhurst PUD; Village Board final. However, requiring the super
majority vote in this appeal would be acceptable.
Trustee Juracek stated the appeal process is always available; acceptable if the
Village Board wants a super majority vote for approval on this item.
Mr. Bill Holly, Petitioner was in attendance and responded to questions from the
Village Board.
Fin is architectural feature of building; will not be lit.
Fin was approved in building permit but didn’t include signage
LED illuminated
Design put in place for shopping center; allow customers walking through to see it.
No other location has denied the sign.
Village Board Comments
Sign allowances for distance from street- this sign qualifies; quite a distance from
Route 83
Sign is within reason – unique setting.
Site-visit to Randhurst – doesn’t view fin as part of signage; supports request
Request meets requirements for variation
Unique circumstances (hardship) – angle of buildings; Old Navy in middle of parcel
Important to have these type of landmarks.
Pleased to have Old Navy back in Mount Prospect
Trustee Polit raised several questions regarding the use of color “banding”; why not
included as part of signage for sign permit. He identified a number of national chains
that have incorporated signature color banding for identification; “signage.”

In response to questions from the Village Board Mr. Cooney stated each request for
variation for signage at Randhurst would be addressed case by case; no standards
would be set if the Village Board approved the request for Variation of Old Navy
signage.
In response to Mayor Wilks recommendation that the appeal process to the Village
Board for Planning and Zoning final cases be incorporated in the Village Code, Trustee
Korn suggested the Code be modified to include: Petitioner has the right to appeal P &

Thanked Mayor for participating in action to save local funds.
State is attempting to keep money that rightfully belongs to municipality
Contacted state regarding withholding tax money due the state – told this was
