into the record the receipt of original Certification of Publication and
original Notice Affidavit, including a list of property owners and copies

JERRY CALLAGHAN |
Mr. Jerry Callaghan, attorney representing the petitioner, summarized changes
to the draft annexation agreement. Since submitting the annexation agreement
approximately one month ago, Neumann Homes has been advised of some changes
by village staff and the village attorney which will be incorporated into
a new draft and submitted to the village for consideration. The changes
are: B-3 zoning on the commercial parcel, light industrial use will be removed Floor area ratio limitation incorporated. Since the current code does not have a floor area ratio, Robert Silhan, Director of Planning, Zoning and Building, recommended that one be incorporated into the annexation agreement. The recommendation is .30 which means thirty percent of the land can be building area. Site plan review included. Change R-1 on the south end to E-1 in event the portion of the site is not used for a school site. Water connection fees will be included Neumann Homes agrees with and will include the changes discussed. |
JOHN LaMOTTE |
Mr. John LaMotte, commercial planner from The Lakota Group Inc., briefly
discussed the proposed commercial portion, approximately 30 acres of the
55 acre site and the request to change the zoning on the comprehensive plan.
Mr. LaMotte indicated the parcel location is good for commercial use and
it will eventually be a signalized intersection. The idea is that this corner
will service both Deercrest subdivision, the proposed Clublands subdivision
and residents on the east side of town that are there today. In conjunction
with that, the southern 25 acres of the 55 acre site is proposed for school
use. Neumann Homes is currently in negotiations for that as a site for schools.
The intention is that the schools will be next to the shopping area that
creates compatibility with the nearby the residential areas. If the negotiations
regarding the school area does not go, the zoning would revert back to E-1
as indicated earlier. Mr. LaMotte went on to say that from a planning standpoint
this is a good location especially in anticipation of what is coming down
the road as far as new development. |
AARON GRUEN |
Mr. Aaron Gruen, Gruen and Gruen Associates, Urban Economic and Market Research
Fiscal Analyst firm, discussed the fiscal impacts the proposed project would
have on the village. Mr. Gruen explained that fiscal refers to the effect
on the general fund, operating revenues and out going costs based on the
floor area ratio of .25 which is smaller than the .30 ratio discussed earlier.
They also looked at the property and sales tax revenue by researching the
village's budget and interviewed staff. They did not include the utility
tax because it is their understanding that they will not be in effect in
the future. On the cost side, they reviewed all the costs. The estimation
on the revenue side is $1,150,000 at build out. The cost side is estimated
with an annual operating cost of approximately $343,000 with an estimated
net benefit of $813,000. Mr. Gruen said these are very conservative estimates.
When asked how the amount of revenue was estimated. Mr. Gruen said they
estimated the property tax to the village, general funds only, which is
about $176,000 and the sales tax revenue of $980,000. When asked what kinds
of business mix was used to estimate the sales tax revenue, Mr. Gruen indicated
they researched a mix of stores and looked at the kinds tenants associated
with that mix and look at various projects in the area. In this case they
assumed that eighty percent of the space would be made up of larger users,
larger modern grocery store, discount stores, a Kohl's store and the like.
Twenty percent of the development would be comprised of smaller type businesses
like dry cleaners and restaurants. Trustee Porch asked Mr. Gruen if he researched
what the impact would be on the current commercial district. Mr. Gruen indicated
he did not. |
ROBERT SILHAN |
Robert Silhan, Director of Planning, Zoning and Building, said that as he
indicated to the Planning and Zoning Board Thursday night, he is recommending
approval of the rezoning pending annexation. He also reviewed pages 14 and
15 of the comprehensive plan. Since December of 1991 there has been 1037
permits issued for new single family residential units, 155 permits issued
for residential dwelling units for townhouses and multiple family apartments
and four permits issued for new retail commercial. |
CITIZENS |
Mr. John Horan, Hillside resident, asked why the annexation agreement term
is for twenty years. Mr. Jerry Callaghan, attorney for the petitioner, said
that twenty years is the limitation established by State Statute. Mr. Horan
also said that as a citizen, he is disappointed to see the ordinances already
drafted and on the agenda before hearing public testimony. Mr. Geoff Vosper, Hanley Drive resident, said that although he and many others present feel this is ‘done deal' and a legal convenience, he asked the Board not to change the comprehensive plan because of pressure from the developer. Mr. Marc Lubkeman, Linden Lane resident, approached the Board requesting that changes not be made to the Comprehensive Plan, which took two years to develop. He suggested the Board get all the facts before making any changes. Ms. Jodi Gott, Pine Hill Drive resident, read a resolution that is attached to the Shorewood Hills Comprehensive Plan and stressed the importance of community development. Ms. Gott distributed copies of Comprehensive Plans from other communities for the Board's review. Mr. Greg Umec, Savage Road resident, read his letter expressing concerns with development and the effects it may have on the water quality and quantity. Ms. Sandi Siegmier, Circle Avenue resident, doesn't understand the fiscal information provided earlier and the huge displacement of the impact it will have on the downtown. She also said that she doesn't feel the Board has enough information to make a decision. Ms. Marianne Guy, White Road resident, asked why the Board is considering annexation at this point since the 55 acres is not contiguous. She also discussed the Memorandum of Understanding and compliance with current ordinances, not changing the comprehensive plan. Mr. Ron Reipe, Miller Road resident, stated there is room for flexibility. Mr. Reipe distributed a packet of information to the Board that was previously distributed to members of the Planning and Zoning Board. Ms. Dee Reeves, Fox Drive resident, said the Comprehensive Plan is not part of the Memorandum of Understanding, the developer should ask for a variance instead of making permanent changes to the plan. Mr. Pete Bolandar, Eagle Ridge Drive, read a letter addressed to the Board stating that he is dismayed at the predicament the Board is being asked to work under. Mr. Jack Siegmier, discussed the impact of changing the commercial zoning from 5 acres to 30 acres and feels that the Board is opening a pandora's box and they hold the key. Mr. Bob Burman, Pine Hill Drive resident, stated that he has a degree in finance and he was astounded by the financial review presentation made earlier. He found it unacceptable. Mr. Bill Creaney, Hill Ridge Drive resident, said that Neumann Homes has been previously turned down and he feels he will have to pay higher taxes with or without them, and he prefers to pay it without them. Ms. Marianne Brandt, Miller Road resident, said her property is adjacent to the proposed property. She discussed the configuration of Savage Road and the Memorandum of Understanding Non Binding Agreement. She asked the Village Board to do what is right for Antioch. Ms. Brenda Lyntner, discussed the proposed changes to the Comprehensive Plan, Subdivision and Zoning Codes. Mr. Darrell May, read his letter and asked the Board why they are giving away the store if changes to the Comprehensive Plan are not part of the Memorandum of Understanding. Ms. Mary Hadick, Hook Circle Drive resident, said that she felt residents are being ignored. Ms. Jan Sternberg, Deep Lake Road resident, said changes to the Comprehensive Plan warrants many hours of research. Ms. Joanne Horan, Hillside resident, would like Neuman Homes to donate the 55 acres to the schools. Ms. Joanne Linker, said that she has a small business in town because she likes it. She would like to be known for something else besides Wal Mart. She suggested a beautiful hotel or water park. Ms. Cindy Derouse, Meridian Way, said Neumann Homes is turning this small wonderful town into a little city. Ms. Pat Antonnelli, Main Street resident, asked the Board if they are
confident with their understanding of all the aspects these changes will
have on our community. |

within the special service area. If landowners don't pay the tax bill, the
property would go through foreclosure proceedings. Ms. Bilas explained that

Service Area Number Two (Clublands) is the same as the previously discussed

area. When asked why would there be a special service area established in
an area not yet approved, Ms. Bilas said steps are outlined in State Statute
to establish special services areas and doesn't bind the village in any
way. Because this special service area applies to Clublands which is not
yet approved, it will only be established if Clublands is approved and this
procedure does not obligate the Board to approve the Clublands proposal. |

TOM BURNEY |
Mr. Tom Burney, attorney for Neumann Homes reviewed the request and discussed
the property sold to the Lake County Forest Preserve, increased lot size,
fewer homes and increased open space. Trustee Pierce asked if this development
would warrant a traffic signal. Mr. Burney responded that the current
development will not in itself justify the need for a traffic signal.
The combination of commercial development on the 55 acre site, the school
site and Deercrest development will warrant the signal. |
DON ANDERSON |
There was a question regarding the memorandum of understanding. Village
Attorney Don Anderson stated the memorandum of understanding constitutes
a tentative resolution of the disputes involved in the Deercrest and Neumann
Homes provisions. It constitutes a tentative commitment on the part of the
Village Board to abide by the provisions of that agreement in order to obtain
the resolution that is the objective of the memorandum. It does not mean
that the Village Board is bound to vote for the PUD because no document
of that kind can bind the Board in the execution of it's governmental
responsibility. It does mean, however, that if the Board chooses to vote
against this PUD, that the result will be that we will be back in litigation. |
TRUSTEE CAULFIELD |
Trustee Caulfield asked if the hydro geologist would give a brief presentation.
Mr. Tom Burney introduced Mr. Michael Place, Hydro Geologist and President
of Classer Inc. Mr. Place stated that he has been a consultant for 19 years.
He said that in 1999 USEPA issued a record of decision specifying remedies
for the soil, leche, gas and ground water quality issues that were being
faced at the time. The ground water is being monitored on that site and
the overall waste pile has been reconsolidated and capped to prevent rain
water from infiltrating through and creates less likely leche leaking from
the site. The ILEPA and Illinois Department of Public Health and the Federal
Agency for Disease Registry, there has been numerous health assessments
and a public health action plan developed by the Illinois Department of
Public Health. All of these studies conclude that there is no threat from
the landfill. Mr. Place said the village has one of the best remedies is
possible because we have both federal and state agencies monitoring the
site in addition to multimillion dollar responsible party watching the site
for the next thirty years. There was a discussion regarding the proposed
amendments to the village ordinances. Trustee Porch indicated that she
felt betrayed by Mr. Neumann because the ordinances are being changed
instead of requesting variances. Mr. Burney responded that the proposed
amendments made to the request are clarifying amendments. He read a section
to the village ordinance and stated that the village planner has indicated
over and over again this community has approved modification, whether
it's sidewalks, road configuration or length of blocks. Mr. Burney wanted
the record to show that the village has allowed for departures from the
village code has been regularly approved by the village. Trustee Porch
said that all other developments have asked for variances. |

part of PZB02-12 was reviewed: The Combined Planning and Zoning Board conducted a public hearing on September 5, 2002 following notification as required by State Law and Village Ordinance. Neumann Homes presented their request. The staff report concludes with a positive recommendation with the following suggest conditions: 1. Final terms and conditions of the annexation agreement be subject to the review of the Village Board, with advise from the Village Attorney, following the required annexation hearing as required by law. 2. That the final plan of the commercial site be subject to the purview of the Mayor and Village Board of Trustees, with advice from staff, to assure general compliance with the Illustrative Site Plan. 3. If School District #34 does not accept the proposed land dedication, that the R-1 part of the site be restricted to the same maximum residential gross density, (2.22 du/A), as the Clublands site. Several members of the audience spoke in opposition to the proposal.
