CONSIDERATION OF AN ORDINANCE Granting Variations for a Fence (ZBA 20-11) at 234 McKinley Avenue - Jack and Sarah Danilkowicz, Applicants deferred from June 23, 2020 Village Board meeting - DEFERRED
President Weppler reported that at the June 23, 2020 meeting, the Village Board of Trustees deferred the ordinance for a fence at 234 McKinley Avenue to allow the petitioners the opportunity to offer revisions to the proposal. The petitioners have reviewed the issue and offer the following changes:
• Reduce the opaqueness of the fence from 100% to no more than 66% opaque.
• Reduce the height of the fence from six (6) feet to five (5) feet.
A photo of the proposed fence was provided for Village Board review. The ordinance has been amended to reflect the proposed changes. President Weppler asked for comments and questions.
Deputy Administrator Engelmann read three emails from Florence Court residents regarding the fence installation.

Mr. Danilkowicz stated that this matter had caused undue burden on him, but he accepted deferring.
Trustee Garrity moved to defer the item until the ordinance language could be clearly stated, and Tmstee Johnson seconded. The motion carried on roll call vote as follows:

REPORT OF THE ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS (ZBA 20-01), Variation of Corner Side Yard Setback (ZBA 20-02), Variation to Increase Lot Coverage (ZBA 20-03), Variation to Allow a Fence in Corner Side Yard (ZBA 20-04), Variation to Allow a Fence Closer to the Street - Johanna Corbin, Applicant - 309 Forest Lane President Weppler recused himself due to the fact that the petitioner's attorney is related to him and he asked Trustee Johnson to step in as Mayor Pro Tem.
President Pro-Tem Johnson explained that the property owner at 309 Forest Lane was requesting variations to allow construction of a pool, pool deck, and fencing to the west of the existing single-family home. The variations were requested due to the lot location fronting on three streets. The Zoning Board of Appeals heard the requests at the meetings of May 11, 2020 and June 22, 2020. During the course of the hearing, the petitioner lessened a setback variation for the pool by moving the stmcture further to the east and addressed lot coverage issues by proposing to eliminate the driveway at the corner ofLinden Lane and Forest Lane.
Although the petitioner was proposing to maintain approximately the same amount of lot coverage as existing, members of the Zoning Board of Appeals expressed support for the project, subject to meeting the lot coverage for the site. At the conclusion of the hearing, the following motions were voted upon:
• Reduce the comer side yard setback from 30 feet to approximately 18.6 feet.
Approved 5 - 0
• Increase the maximum permitted lot coverage from 40% to approximately 40.2%.
Denied 1 - 4
• Allow a fence to be located in the comer side yard beyond the rear building line.
Approved 5-0
• Allow a fence to be located closer to the street than the front yard established for the abutting lot.
Approved 5 - 0
In summary, the Zoning Board of Appeals recommended approval of the project, subject to compliance with the maximum permitted lot coverage. President Pro-Tem Johnson asked for questions and comments.
Representing the applicant. Attorney Sean Weppler explained the changes to the request. Based on Village recommendations, the design was as close to conforming as was possible. The lot coverage would be reduced even though it would still be over the permitted coverage. The impervious surface would be reduced. The fence would be three feet closer to the building.
Trustee Johnson asked if the design could achieve 40% lot coverage, and Attorney Weppler said that it had previously been 46% and was reduced to 40.2%. Tmstee Johnson asked for the design to reflect 40%.
Trustee Adams stated that the lot was overbuilt, and the area constantly floods during rain events. Any overbuilding would impact the entire neighborhood. He asked for the 40% coverage to be met. Attorney Weppler stated that engineering would reduce runoff and would provide potential for more help with flooding. Trustees Garrity, Moras, and Carey concurred with the 40% lot coverage. Tmstee Adams also expressed concern with traffic issues during heavy traffic volume in and out of the high school.

REPORT OF THE PLAN COMMISSION (PC 20-21), Amendment to the Village of Libertyville Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map (PC 20-22), Amendment to the Village of Libertyville Zoning Map - Dr. David Honey, Applicant - 1441 N. Milwaukee
Avenue President Weppler explained that Dr. David Honey requested an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map and an amendment to the Zoning Map to allow for the future construction of a dentist office at 1441 N. Milwaukee Avenue.
The Plan Commission held a public hearing on the requests on June 22, 2020. The proposed zoning classification change is from R-8, Multiple Family Residential District to C-3, General Commercial District. Members debated the merits of the proposal with differing views being stated as C-3 is inconsistent with zoning in this area along the western side of Milwaukee Avenue. Other Commissioners saw the proposal as a possible extension of the land uses that may be developed to the south on the Lake County property. The Commission noted that the proposal is conceptual and that if a zoning classification change was approved, the applicant would be required to proceed through the development review process.
Motions to recommend Village Board of Trustees approval of the change to the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map and the zoning classification change from R-8 to C-3 failed with votes of 3 - 2. Although a majority of members voted in favor of the proposals, four (4) members voting in favor is necessary for a positive recommendation. Accordingly, the recommendation was for denial of the requests. President Weppler then asked for questions and comments.
President Weppler noted that there had once been a doctor's office on the property. Tmstee Johnson asked for clarification on where this use would fit in the Comprehensive Plan. Director of Community Development John Spoden explained that with the development of the County Property becoming residential use, this property would also be proposed residential. Trustee Adams stated that the office would be an appropriate use since there is mixed use on the east side of Milwaukee Avenue. Tmstee Moms stated his support for the request. Trustee Johnson, noting the new office on the east side of Milwaukee Avenue, stated her support. Trustee Carey concurred with Tmstee Adams.
Trustee Adams moved to approve the Amendment to the Village of Libertyville Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use (PC 20-21), and Trustee Johnson seconded. President Weppler asked for further comments and there was none. The motion carried on roll call vote as follows:
AYES: Trustees Johnson, Moms, Justice, Adams, Garrity, and Carey

REPORT OF THE PLAN COMMISSION (PC 20-17), Amendment to the Village of Libertyville Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map (PC 20-18), Amendment to the Planned Development Final Plan (PC 20-19), Preliminary Plat of Subdivision - 45 Peterson, LLC, Applicant - 1800,1850, and 1950 N. U.S. Highway 45
President Weppler explained that the Village of Libertyville, Midwest Industrial Funds, and Peterson45, LLC together were requesting an amendment to the Planned Development for the Libertyville Sports Complex property at the northeast comer of Route 45 and Peterson Road. The amendment would allow for the existing indoor Sports Complex to operate with additional parking, construction of two industrial/warehouse buildings to the south, and development of a commercial parcel on the comer.
Plans were submitted for concept approval and reviewed by the Plan Commission at a public hearing on June 22, 2020. At the hearing, the Commission reviewed conceptual site plans and elevations, stormwater management plans, and discussed traffic impact along with site circulation.
The Commission reviewed the proposal which included adding 113 parking spaces (including land banked spaces) to the Sports Complex site, construction of two (2), 165,000+ square foot industrial buildings with an interior truck dock, and a gas service station. The Commission discussed the layout and traffic circulation and requested that at Final Plan that the Village revisit the pedestrian connection from the expanded rear parking lot of the Sports Complex and to provide a funding study for a traffic signal at the Route 45 entrance opposite Tempel Drive.
At the conclusion of the hearing, the Commission voted unanimously to recommend Village Board of Trustees approval of the project, subject to the development conditions listed in the attached Report of the Plan Commission. Director of Community Development John Spoden reviewed the process. Pat Schaner of Midwest Industrial Funds and Tom Williams of 45Peterson, LLC attended virtually. President Weppler asked for questions and comments. He noted that he liked the proposal.
Trustee Johnson asked for clarification of costs to maintain Pond A per the exhibit, and Village Engineer Jeff Cooper stated that costs had been taken into consideration, and it was not a large number. Mr. Schaner explained that there would be 1-4 tenants who would use buildings for warehousing and distribution, light manufacturing, and truck traffic would be determined by use.
Trustee Moras stated that the process should continue. Trustee Justice stated that the concept was positive. Trustee Adams asked for clarification of the parking and expressed concern with entry to the building from a back parking lot. He also asked about occupancy rates. Heather Rowe, Economic Development Coordinator stated that industrial occupancy is low for Lake County. Mr. Schaner stated that these proposed buildings would offer great heights and numbers of loading docks. Trustee Adams stated that he liked the project. Tmstee Garrity stated that he liked that the stormwater management had been addressed, and he hoped that the joint parking would work out, and favored a possible east entrance to the Sports Complex.
Resident Sheri Rocco expressed concern about increased storm water flow from the development and significant error in increased flooding.
Resident Dan Gunther expressed concern with storm water flowing into his neighborhood and asked for assurance that the flow would be decreased.
Resident Christine Geiselhart, stated that she appreciated Director Spoden's information and that she had attended the Plan Commission meeting. She expressed concern with excess storm water with the loss of impervious surface. She also asked if there was a problem with the functioning of the discharge pipe. Jeff Cooper stated that the pipe had been checked and found in good repair. Ms. Geiselhart also expressed concern with the proposed widening of Route 137/83 and the impact on excess storm water with additional hard surfaces. Jeff Cooper stated that each development must consider its stormwater management.
Director Spoden explained that the vote this evening would only approve preliminary plans. President Weppler added that this would secure the right for the developers to move forward developing final plans. Trustee Moras stated that this was very preliminary and would give assurance to the developers that they can move forward and develop engineering and provide documentation prior to approval.

ORDINANCE NO. 20-0-47: An Ordinance Extending a Waiver of Enforcement of Certain Sections of the Libertyville Zoning Code as it Relates to Outdoor Dining President Weppler noted that on May 26, 2020 the Village Board approved an Ordinance allowing for the temporary waiver of certain sections of the Libertyville Zoning Code to address the accommodations made under Phase 3 of the RESTORE ILLINOIS PLAN. The temporary waiver of the zoning requirements was related to outdoor seating in order to comply with the changes to Phase 3 of the RESTORE ILLINOIS PLAN.
Since approval of the Ordinance, numerous restaurants have applied for and received outdoor dining permits. Given that the Phase 4 RESTORE ILLINOIS PLAN restricts occupancy for indoor dining, Staff recommended extending the waiver of enforcement until November 1, 2020. This will give restaurants the ability to continue to maximize their seating capabilities with a combination of outdoor and indoor dining.
Staff recommended adoption of the Ordinance to extend the waiver of zoning codes to accommodate outdoor dining changes in order to support the local restaurants. President Weppler asked for questions or comments and there were none.
Trustee Garrity moved to approve the ordinance extending a Waiver of Enforcement of Certain Sections of the Libertyville Zoning Code as it relates to Outdoor Dining. Trustee Carey seconded. President Weppler asked for comments and there were none. The motion carried on roll call vote as follows:
