JANONIS, VILLAGE MANAGER FROM: DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DATE: AUGUST 29, 2011 SUBJECT: PZ -20 -11 1999 N. ELMHURST RD.1 AMENDMENT TO SPECIAL USE FOR SIGNS & VARIATION (ILLUMINATIONS LEVELS FOR SIGN) / CASTO The Petitioner has redesigned the corner monument sign that was approved as part of the original Special Use for large scale development signs, and proposes to install two monument signs versus one at the Rand and Elmhurst intersection. The first monument sign would highlight special events and identify Randhurst Village's tenants via an electronic message center. The second monument sign would identify the AMC theatre and replace the existing AMC changeable copy sign. Since the proposed corner monument signs do not reflect the design or number as approved in the original Special Use in 2008, an Amendment of the Special Use is required. The Village Sign Code limits the illumination of an electronic message center to a maximum of 5,000 nits (candelas per square meter) during daylight hours and a maximum of 500 nits between dusk to dawn. Per the Petitioner's application, the electronic message center will operate within the permitted illumination between dusk to dawn, but not during daylight hours. The electronic message center would provide an illumination of 7,500- 10,000 nits during daylight hours when the Code limits it to a maximum of 5,000 nits. The Petitioner notes that the higher illumination levels are necessary in order to make the sign readable during brighter days. The Petitioner is seeking a Variation to increase the permitted illumination from 5,000 nits up to 10,000 nits during daylight hours. The electronic message center will automatically vary the illumination levels based on the time and sunlight via a photocell control. The Planning and Zoning Commission conducted a public hearing to review the requests on Thursday, August 25, 2011 and made the following recommendations on the zoning requests: 1. By a vote of 6 -0 recommended approval of an Amendment to the Special Use for Large Scale Development Signs granted in Ordinance No. 5705, and amended in Ordinance No. 5821, for the Randhurst Village Planned Unit Development to allow two monument signs, including one Electronic Message Center sign, as illustrated on the plans prepared by Doyle General Sign Contractors dated April 19, 2011, subject to the conditions of approval a), b), c), d), and f) as listed in the staff report and by a vote of 4 -2 modified condition of approval e) to read as "Messages shall not change more frequently than once every three (3) seconds ". 2. By a vote of 4 -2 recommended denial of a Variation to increase illumination levels for an electronic message center from 5,000 nits to 10,000 nits during daylight hours. Details of the proceedings and items discussed during the Planning and Zoning Commission hearing are included in the attached minutes. Please forward this memorandum and attachments to the Village Board for their review and consideration at their September 6, 2011 meeting. Staff will be present to answer any questions related to this matter.

Conroy, Joe Doyle Chairman Rogers called the meeting to order at 7:30 p.m. Mr. Donnelly made a motion, seconded by Mr. Youngquist to approve the minutes of the July 28, 2011 PIanning & Zoning Commission meeting; the minutes were approved 5 -0 with Ms. Hinaber abstaining. After hearing one (1) previous case, Chairman Rogers introduced Case PZ- 20 -11, 999 N. Elmhurst Road at 8:33 p.m. Ms. Andrade said the Petitioner for PZ -20 -11 was seeking approval to amend the Special Use for large scale development signs and a Variation to increase illumination levels for an electronic message center for the property located at 999 N. Elmhurst Road. Ms. Andrade stated the Petitioner received Special Use approval in 2008 for large scale development signs for the Randhurst Shopping Center, which included the corner monument sign at the Rand and Elmhurst intersection. Ms. Andrade said the Petitioner has redesigned the corner monument sign that was approved as part of the original Special Use and proposed to install two (2) monument signs versus one at the Rand and Elmhurst intersection. The first monument sign would highlight special events and identify Randhurst Village's tenants via an electronic message center. The second monument sign would identify the AMC theatre and replace the existing AMC changeable copy sign. Since the proposed corner monument signs do not reflect the design or number as approved in the original Special Use in 2008, an Amendment of the Special Use is required. The existing Randhurst sign located at the base of the water tower would remain resulting in a total of three signs along the Rand Road frontage. Richard Rogers, Chair PZ -20 -1 I PIanning & Zoning Commission Meeting August 25, 2011 Page i of 5 Ms. Andrade stated the monument signs are over an existing twenty -four (24) inch storm sewer and near an existing water main. The monument signs, including any overhang, would be required to be relocated to comply with a five (5) foot setback to any property line and utility. Ms. Andrade referenced a site plan that illustrated the number of existing and proposed freestanding signs along the public right -of -ways. The signs that were labeled in blue represented existing monument signs that either identify Randhurst tenants or outlot businesses. The Petitioner's two (2) proposed signs would increase the overall number of signs from ten (10) to twelve (12). Ms. Andrade showed an image that illustrated the original sign that was approved as part of the Special Use. The original sign measured fifty (50) feet wide by just over fourteen (14) feet tall. The proposed signs were designed to match the pylon signs recently installed at the four (4) entrances to the Randhurst Village shopping center. Each of the proposed signs would measure fourteen (14) feet. The Randhurst monument sign would measure 19.39 feet wide and the AMC sign would measure 20.45 feet wide. Ms. Andrade said he Petitioner would be required to provide landscaping at the base of each sign that met code requirements. Ms. Andrade referenced the following table: u Orrgmal Corn_.er ID 4,r`oposed Randhnrstr Propo §ed AiV1C Sign r.:1 n .S`i Il Height 14.33 ft. 14 ft. 14 ft Width 50 ft. 19.39 ft. 20.45 ft. Area 715 s .ft. 271.46 s .ft. 286.3 s .ft. Number of Tenants Identified 6 none 1 AMC Electronic Message Center n/a 77.67 s I. n/a Ms. Andrade stated the table compared the original sign proposal with the revised signs. The original sign measured 715 square feet, which is over 400 square feet than the proposed signs. The Randhurst sign would measure 271.46 square feet and the AMC sign would measure 286.3 square feet. The original sign identified six (6) tenants. The proposed Randhurst sign would not include any tenant panels, but would include an electronic message center where special events and tenants would be identified. Ms. Andrade said the electronic message center would occupy twenty -nine (29) percent of the overall monument sign area, which is under the Sign Code's maximum fifty (50) percent allowable area for electronic message centers. Per the Petitioner, the electronic message center would provide a display period of approximately three (3) seconds. The Village has previously supported intervals of up to six (6) seconds between messages, but not three (3) seconds. Ms. Andrade stated the text would be required to be uniform in color, appearance, and font. Flashing text or animated graphics are not allowed per the Village Sign Code. Ms. Andrade said per the Petitioner, the electronic message center would operate within the permitted illumination between dusk to dawn, but not during daylight hours. The electronic message center would provide an illumination of 7,500- 10,000 nits during daylight hours when the Code limits it to a maximum of 5,000 nits. The Petitioner was seeking a Variation to increase the permitted illumination from 5,000 nits up to 10,000 nits during daylight hours. Ms. Andrade stated that Staff found the Petitioner's proposed signs to be reasonable as the signs would be consistent with the existing pylon signs currently placed at the four (4) primary entrances to the shopping center. Staff found the Variation to increase the permitted illumination levels not warranted. Richard Rogers, Chair PZ -20 -11 Planning & Zoning Commission Meeting August 25, 2011 Page 2 of 5 Ms. Andrade said based on the analysis, Staff recommended that the Planning & Zoning Commission approve the motion to allow two monument signs that included one (1) electronic message center. Staff recommended that the Planning & Zoning Commission deny the Variation request to increase the illumination levels for the electronic message center. Chairman Rogers confirmed with Staff that the Petitioner would not be allowed to show movie previews on the message board. He clarified that Staff recommended a six (6) second interval on the message board instead of a three (3) second interval. Mr. Donnelly discussed a previous zoning case from 2011 that addressed the issue of monument signs being installed within utility easements. Ms. Andrade confirmed that there were utilities along the Rand Road property line and the Petitioner would be required to setback the proposed signs at a minimum of five (5) feet from any utility. She stated that the site plan as originally presented would need to be updated since it does not reflect the setback. Chairman Rogers asked if the existing foundation in place for the existing AMC sign could be used for the proposed new AMC sign. Ms. Andrade stated that the foundation could not be used and the proposed AMC sign would need to be moved. Chairman Rogers swore in Jim Conroy, 55 E. Euclid, Mount Prospect, Illinois. Mr. Conroy stated that there is a large storm sewer that is located where the proposed signs would be installed. He understood the desire not to have any additional load placed on the utility. Mr. Conroy believed there is an effective way to straddle the pipe and not bear any load on the utility. He said that he would comply with the five (5) foot setback, but would prefer the flexibility to investigate the ability to design the sign without bearing the load on the utility. Mr. Conroy stated that he discussed the electronic message board with sign designer Mike Mallon. He discussed how the technology has evolved in regards to signs and sign ordinances. Mr. Conroy said that he would comply with the nighttime requirements of the Village Code, but requested an exception during the day. He discussed how sunny days would have an effect on the sign. Mr. Conroy stated that the sign would only be at its highest illumination level if everything in the background was white. Mr. Conroy discussed a photo cell in the proposed sign that would automatically regulate the illumination. He said the sign would adjust the illumination levels based on weather conditions (sunny / cloudy day). Mr. Conroy stated that the proposed sign would not show moving graphics, but it would show logos for Randhurst's tenants. He stated the sign would give representation on Rand Road for those businesses Iocated on Main Street within the development. The sign would also announce special events for Randhurst Village. Mr. Conroy discussed the time intervals between messages on the proposed sign. He said the sign designer stated that two (2) to three (3) seconds would be an appropriate length of time for the intervals. Mr. Conroy stated that six (6) seconds were too stale. Mr. Roberts asked Mr. Conroy if he would be okay with 7,500 nits for the daytime. Mr. Conroy said that a maximum 10,000 nits were requested, with the sign only using approximately sixty (60) percent of the illumination Ievel. Chairman Rogers said that the Village was trying to limit the brightness of the signs. He believed the Petitioner could get messages out within the permitted 5,000 nits. Chairman Rogers stated in previous years that the Planning and Zoning Commission worked with local sign companies to establish the maximum illumination levels. Chairman Rogers swore in Joe Doyle, Doyle Sign Company, 232 W. Interstate Road, Addison, Illinois. Mr. Doyle stated that he was not personally involved with working with the Village on establishing illumination levels, but his company could have been a consultant. He explained how the light levels were previously Richard Rogers, Chair PZ -20 -1 I Planning & Zoning Commission Meeting August 25, 2011 Page 3 of 5 established for the maximum levels that signs use to be able to reach, however technology has advanced. Mr. Doyle discussed how weather impacts signs during daytime hours. Mr. Roberts stated how important it was for the proposed sign to be able to adjust to weather conditions. There was discussion, regarding illumination levels of signs in surrounding communities and the ability to dim the proposed sign. Mr. Doyle discussed how signs are dimmed manually and with the new photo cell technology. Chairman Rogers stated that if the higher illumination levels were granted, then the Village would lose control. He understood that the Petitioner wants the maximum exposure, but there are safety issues in regards to the sign. Mr. Donnelly asked if the proposed signs would be the final signs for the development. Mr. Conroy stated there would be additional directional signs added once traffic reaches the Subject Property. Mr. Donnelly asked if there would be any additional signage at the east entrance along Kensington Road. Mr. Conroy said that initially Pylon Sign A would be located there, but it was moved due to the storm sewer and fiber optic Iines being located there. He stated that the Village Board suggested moving the pylon sign by the Costco signal. Mr. Conroy discussed the approval process with tenants in regards to moving the sign. He said the only concern came from Jewel who wanted to identify access from Kensington down the east drive. Mr. Conroy stated that a directional sign is in the works to be placed at the east Kensington Road entrance, but it would need to be approved by Jewel. Mr. Donnelly discussed the potential for additional signage when the outlets are occupied. Mr. Conroy believed there would only be an additional two (2) to three (3) signs added to the subject property. There was additional discussion regarding the various signage on the Subject Property. Mr. Conroy explained the various tenants' needs for signage in relation to the development. He stated the proposed AMC sign would be smaller than the existing ground sign. It would match other signage within the development. Mr. Donnelly said that he preferred one sign along Rand Road instead of two signs. Mr. Youngquist understood that signs could be built over public utilities and casements to not increase the Ioad. He discussed a previous zoning case (Lube Pros) that required the five (5) foot setback from the public utility and stated that the Petitioner would need to comply with the setback requirement. Mr. Conroy stated that the storm sewer along Rand is private and owned by Randhurst. He believed that it is not located within an easement. Mr. Youngquist said he was not aware that the sewer was owned by Randhurst. There was additional discussion regarding water detention and utilities on the subject properly. Mr. Simmons stated that the utilities are all on private property and maintained by the Petitioner. He said in regards to the original Planned Unit Development agreement, Public Works requested that the access rights to the property be addressed and the utilities would be platted within easements following the completion of the project so the area could be accessed. Mr. Simmons confirmed with Mr. Donnelly that the Village would have rights to the easements. There was additional discussion regarding the proposed signs being placed over a utility. Chairman Rogers asked if there was anyone else in the audience to address this case. Hearing none, he closed the public portion of the case at 8:48 p.m. and brought the discussion back to the board. Mr. Floros asked the Petitioner which of the conditions he would like to see eliminated. Mr. Conroy stated he would like to see the request for the six (6) second interval on the electronic message board be reduced to three (3) seconds. He said the other requirements listed in the Staff report were fair. Mr. Donnelly did not understand the need for something flashing every three (3) seconds for the proposed sign. Mr. Roberts believed it was in the best interest of the Petitioner to identify the time interval needed for the intersection at the subject property. There was additional discussion regarding the time interval. Richard Rogers, Chair PZ -20 -1 I Planning & Zoning Commission Meeting August 25, 2011 Page 4 of 5 Mr. Roberts made a motion, seconded by Mr. Floras to approve an Amendment to the Special Use for Large Scale Development Signs granted in Ordinance No. 5705, and amended in Ordinance No. 5821, for the Randhurst Village Planned Unit Development to allow two monument signs, including one Electronic Message Center sign, as illustrated on the plans prepared by Doyle General Sign Contractors dated April 19, 2011, subject to the conditions of approval A, B, C, D, and F as listed in the Staff Report.

ELMHURST ROAD / RANDHURST VILLAGE / AMENDMENT TO THE SPECIAL USE FOR SIGNS ASSOCIATED WITH A LARGE SCALE DEVELOPMENT / VARIATION TO INCREASE ILLUMINATION LEVELS FOR AN ELECTRONIC MESSAGE CENTER BACKGROUND .. A public hearing has been scheduled for the August 25, 2011 Planning & Zoning Commission meeting to review the application by Casto Lifestyle Properties (the "Petitioner "), regarding the property located at 999 N. Elmhurst Road known as the Randhurst Village Shopping Center. The Petitioner is seeking approval to amend the Special Use for large scale development signs and a Variation to increase illumination levels for an electronic message center. The P &Z Commission hearing was properly noticed in the August 10, 2011 edition of the Journal Topics Newspaper. In addition, the Petitioner has completed the required written notice to property owners within 250 - feet and Staff has posted Public Hearing signs on the Subject Property. PROPERTY DESCRIPTION The Subject Property is located northeast of the intersection of Rand Road and Elmhurst Road, and is generally bounded by Euclid Avenue, Elmhurst Road, Kensington Road, and the Boxwood residential development. The property is currently under construction for the Randhurst Village Planned Unit Development (PUD) approved in 2008. The Subject property is zoned B -3 Community Shopping, and is primarily bordered by the R -X Single Family District to the east and west, B -3 Community Shopping District to the south, and single family residential in the Village of Prospect Heights to the north. SUMMARY The Petitioner has redesigned the corner monument sign that was approved as part of the original Special Use for large scale development signs, and proposes to install two monument signs versus one at the Rand and Elmhurst intersection. The first monument sign would highlight special events and identify Randhurst Village's tenants via an electronic message center. The second monument sign would identify the AMC theatre and replace the existing AMC changeable copy sign. Since the proposed corner monument signs do not reflect the design or number as approved in the original Special Use in 2008, an Amendment of the Special Use is required. The proposed signs have been designed to match the pylon signs recently installed at the four (4) entrances to the Randhurst Village shopping center. The pylon signs are located at the south and north Elmhurst Road, Euclid Road, and Kensington Road entrances to the shopping center. The Village Board approved an amendment to the PZ -20 -11 Planning & Zoning Commission meeting August 25, 2011 Page 3 Special Use in 2010 (Ordinance #5821) to allow the redesigned pylon signs as the pylon signs did not reflect original design. The following table compares the original sign proposal with the revised sign proposal: Ongirial Conner ID Proposed:Randl7urt Proposed. Sign Height 14.33 ft. 14 ft.

Electronic Message Center n/a none 77:67 s .ft. 1 AMC n/a As shown, the monument signs are shown over an existing twenty four (24) inch storm sewer, and near an existing water main. The monument signs, including any overhang, will be required to be relocated to comply with a five (5) foot setback to any property line and utility. The existing Randhurst sign located at the base of the water tower is proposed to remain, resulting in a total of three signs along the Rand Road frontage. Electronic Message Center As shown, the electronic message center will occupy .twenty (29) percent of the overall monument sign area, which is under the Sign Code's maximum fifty (50) percent allowable area for electronic message centers. Per the Petitioner, the electronic message center will provide a display period of approximately three (3) seconds. Previously the Village has supported intervals of up to six (6) seconds between messages. As stipulated in the Village's Sign Code, no more than six (6) items of information and two lines of text will be permitted on the message center portion of the sign. Lettering shall be at least six (6) inches in height and the text will be required to be uniform in color, appearance, and font. The electronic message center shall not consist of flashing, scintillating, chasing or animated lights, or include animated pictorial graphics. The Sign Code limits the illumination of an electronic message center to a maximum of 5,000 nits (candelas per square meter) during daylight hours and a maximum of 500 nits between dusk to dawn. Per the Petitioner's application, the electronic message center will operate within the permitted illumination between dusk to dawn, but not during daylight hours. The electronic message center would provide an illumination of 7,500- 10,000 nits during daylight hours when the Code limits it to a maximum of 5,000 nits. The Petitioner notes that the higher illumination levels are necessary in order to make the sign readable during brighter days. The Petitioner is seeking a Variation to increase the permitted illumination from 5,000 nits up to 10,000 nits during daylight hours. The electronic message center will automatically vary the illumination levels based on the time and sunlight via a photocell control. The electronic message. center will be required to provide a default mechanism that will stop the messaging or freeze the image in one position when a malfunction in electronic programming occurs. Lan — _ scan The Village Sign Code requires a minimum of two (2) square feet of landscaping for every one (1) square of sign face. As proposed, the Randhurst Village monument sign will require five hundred and forty three (543) square feet of landscaping. The AMC monument sign will require five hundred and seventy three (573) square feet of landscaping. The attached landscape plan indicates plantings at the base of the AMC sign, but not at the base of the Randhurst monument sign. The Petitioner is not seeking a relief from the landscape regulations and will be required to comply with the minimum landscaping required at the base of each sign. Staff finds the Petitioner's proposed signs to be reasonable as the signs will be consistent with the existing pylon signs currently placed at the four primary entrances to the shopping center. The proposed monument signs will k, PZ -20 -11 Planning & Zoning Commission meeting August 25, 2011 Page 4 match the design and construction materials of the existing pylon signs. The monument sign, including the electronic message center, will identify special events at the shopping center and will provide visibility for the center and its tenants along Rand Road. The monument sign for AMC will replace an existing outdated freestanding sign that includes a changeable reader board. RECOMMENDATION Based on the above analysis, Staff recommends the Planning & Zoning Commission aDvrove the following motions: "To Approve: . 1. An Amendment to the Special Use for Large Scale Development Signs granted in Ordinance No. 5705, and amended in Ordinance No. 5 82 1, for the Randhurst Village Planned Unit Development to allow two monument signs, including one Electronic Message Center sign, as illustrated on the plans prepared by Doyle General Sign Contractors dated April 19, 2011, subject to the following conditions of approval. a) Relocation of the signs to be at least five (5) feet away from the property lines and utilities. b) Removal of the existing AMC freestanding sign at the Elmhurst Avenue and Rand Road intersection; c) Compliance with the standards for electronic message centers as Iisted in Section 7.330 (A) of the Sign Code unless otherwise specified herein; d) Text displayed by the electronic message center shall be uniform in color, appearance and font with the exception of any trademarked corporate logos displayed for tenants of the shopping center; e) Messages shall not change more frequently than once every six (6) seconds; f) Submittal of a landscape plan that shows the base of the signs will be landscaped as required by the Sign Code." Staff recommends the Planning and Zoning Commission deny the following motions: "To Approve: 1. Variation to increase illumination levels-for an electronic message center from 5,000 nits to 10,000 nits during daylight hours."
