Date: November 28, 2017
To: Michael G. Bartholomew, City Manager
From: William Kushner, Chief of Police
Subject: Training for Tactical Response Team
Issue: Each year the Des Plaines Police Department’s Tactical Response Team schedules a week of
specialized training to enhance its operational skills. This memorandum will outline my request for the
Tactical Response Team to attend training at Mid-South Institute of Self-Defense Shooting Inc., in Lake
Cormorant, Mississippi from April 3-6, 2018.
Analysis: The Tactical Response Team (TRT) trains twice a month to enhance the department’s response to
critical incidents that may arise in the City of Des Plaines. The primary focus is to have a group of
specialized officers available to handle hostage and barricaded gunman situations.
Each year TRT also attends a week of specialized training with instructors from around the country to
improve shooting skills and tactics. From a risk management perspective it is important to offer the highest
level of training possible. It should be noted that members of TRT serve as departmental instructors
throughout the year as this training is ultimately shared with every sworn officer on the police department.
There is no training in the immediate area that combines a quality facility and world class instruction that
Mid-South has to offer. The facility always attracts the finest SWAT teams in the country.
All financial obligations for training, lodging, gas, and equipment will be covered by our federal asset
forfeiture accounts and there will be no expense to the City’s budget. The cost of training is $25,700.00.
Recommendation: I am requesting authorization to use federal asset forfeiture funds in the amount of
$25,700.00 for the Des Plaines TRT to attend Mid-South Institute of Self Defense Shooting Inc., in Lake
Cormorant, Mississippi.

Subject: IL Route 58 (Golf Road) at Wolf Road N Jct. (Cumberland Circle) –
Illinois Department of Transportation Project Addendum Agreement
_____________________________________________________________________________
Issue: At its June 19, 2017 meeting, the City Council approved an agreement with the Illinois Department of
Transportation (IDOT) for the improvement of IL Route 58 (Golf Road) at Wolf Road N Jct. (Cumberland
Circle). Since the execution of the agreement, it has been determined that the project will exceed the initial
cost estimate thus requiring an addendum to the agreement.
Analysis: The general scope of work consists of converting the existing traffic circle into a modern
roundabout. The work will include reducing the existing pavement footprint, providing pedestrian crossings
on all five legs, removing and replacing the existing lighting, improving signage, improving the right of way
drainage, and replacing the water mains within the project limits. The City is responsible for the complete
cost of the highway lighting and water main replacement work as well as a portion of the new sidewalks and
adjacent parking lane reconstruction.
Within the Addendum Agreement (Exhibit A), the construction costs are outlined for each agency. The
previous estimate was based on a preliminary design, but with the engineering design now completed, the
figures have been updated. IDOT’s cost on the project has increased from $4,234,013 to $5,284,026. The
City’s cost share has increased from $608,778 to $1,069,724.
Recommendation: We recommend approval of the Addendum Agreement with the Illinois Department of
Transportation for the IL Route 58 (Golf Road) at Wolf Road N Jct. (Cumberland Circle) conversion of traffic
circle into a modern roundabout. Source of funding would be budgeted Capital Projects Funds.

Subject: Bid Award – Maple Street Pumping Station Disinfection Improvements
Issue: Five bids were received and opened on December 5, 2017 for the Maple Street Pumping Station
Disinfection Improvements.
Analysis: The Maple Street water pumping facility was constructed in 1965 and operates with the original
chlorination system. The EPA has since changed the rules for operating a disinfection system, and in order
for the City to maintain compliance, upgrades are needed. The scope of work includes replacing the
chlorination system, building modifications, electric upgrades and new ventilation equipment. These upgrades
will provide on-line feedback control of disinfectant dosing and modifying the point of application of
disinfectant from the reservoir inlet box to the 24” and 20” distribution mains leaving the station. The bids for
the project are as follows:
BIDDER’S NAME BID AMOUNT
AMS Mechanical Systems, Inc. $560,000.00
Manusos General Contracting, Inc. $597,400.00
Joseph J. Henderson & Son, Inc. $626,000.00
Meccon Industries, Inc. $639,000.00
IH Construction Companies, LLC. $689,500.00
We have verified references for AMS Mechanical Systems and all results were positive. AMS Mechanical
Systems has completed several projects with North Shore Water Reclamation District and two with the County
of DuPage within the last 3 years.
Recommendation: We recommend award of the Maple Street Pumping Station Disinfection Improvements
Project to AMS Mechanical Systems, Inc., 9341 Adam Don Parkway, Woodridge, IL 60517, in the amount of
$560,000.00. Funding source for this project will be Water/Sewer Capital Projects (500-00-580-8100).

PROPERTY TAX
LEVY:
Resolution
R-179-17
Dorothy Wisniewski, Assistant City Manager/Director of Finance explained each
year the City complies with the Illinois Truth in Taxation Act (ITTA) requirements
as it pertains to the issuance of the property tax levy.
The ITTA requires the City to provide notice and conduct a public hearing if the
proposed aggregate levy is 5% or more than the previous year’s property tax
extension. The first step in complying with the requirements of the ITTA is to
determine whether the 2017 estimated aggregate levy is 5% or more than the 2016
property tax extension. Since the 2017 estimated aggregate levy is below the 2016
property tax extension (2.64% decrease), the City is not required to publish a legal
notice and hold a public hearing. However, for transparency it is recommend to
publish a legal notice and hold a public hearing as it would provide the City
Council with increased flexibility in determining the 2017 property tax levy
amount and more opportunity for public input.
Staff recommended approval of a Resolution and Legal Notice for publication to
hold the public hearing. The hearing for the 2017 estimated property tax levy is
scheduled for Monday, December 4, 2017, at 7:00pm (at the beginning of the
regularly scheduled City Council meeting).
Moved by Sayad, seconded by Robinson to recommend to the City Council
Approval of the 2017 Estimated Property Tax Levy; and further recommend that
Resolution R-17-17 be adopted at the appropriate time this evening. Upon voice
vote, motion declared carried.
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT – Alderman Sayad, Chair
CONSIDERATION
OF A CU PERMIT
FOR AN
ALTERNATIVE
SIGN
REGULATION/
1555 LEE
STREET/
ORD. Z-29-17:
Community and Economic Development Director McMahon reviewed a
memorandum dated November 8, 2017.
The applicant, Lisa Neal of Doyle Signs, has requested a Conditional Use Permit
for a Localized Alternative Sign Regulation in order to install two wall signs
totaling 523 square feet in area, when a total 125 square feet is the maximum
permitted, at 1555 Lee Street. Butera Fruit Market is renovating the former
Dominick’s store and will be the anchor in the Oaks Shopping Center. The
renovation of the space and tenant space is nearing completion and they are
seeking approval of these two wall signs.
The petitioner proposes to install two wall signs on the south façade of the tenant
space that total 523 square feet in area. One sign is proposed to say “Entrance” and
Page 8 of 12 11/20/17
is 31 square feet. The second sign is proposed to say “Butera Fruit Market” and is
492 square feet. The City Council has the authority to approve sign variations;
however, no variation may be granted which increases any dimension (height,
length, width or area) to an amount over fifty percent (50%) of the corresponding
dimensions normally permitted, which in this case would be 187.5 square feet. As
a result, the petitioner is requesting a Localized Alternative Sign Regulation (a
Conditional Use) to allow two wall signs that total 523 square feet in area.
The Planning and Zoning Board met on October 24, 2017 to consider the
Conditional Use. The petitioner stated that the size of the store and the distance
from the road necessitate the need for larger wall signs. No members of the public
spoke in either support or opposition of the proposal.
Director McMahon recommended that the City Council approve the Conditional
Use Permit for a Localized Alternative Sign Regulation, in order to install two wall
signs totaling 523 square feet in area, when 125 square feet is permitted, at 1555
Lee Street.
Discussion was held.
Moved by Brookman, seconded by Chester to recommend to the City Council
Approval of a Conditional Use Permit for a Localized Alternative Sign Regulation
at 1555 Lee Street; and further recommend that Ordinance Z-29-17 be adopted at
the appropriate time this evening. Upon voice vote, motion declared carried.
CONSIDERATION
OF SUPPORT FOR
6B TAX
INCENTIVE/
/DB CI 1794 LLC/
1794 S
WINTHROP:
Community and Economic Development Director McMahon reviewed a
memorandum dated November 2, 2017.
The owner of 1794 Winthrop Dr., DB CI -1794, LLC, has filed an application
requesting a City resolution in support of its Class 6b Tax Incentive application.
The subject property has been 100% vacant and unused for over one year.
The subject property consists of a 45 year old 104,610 square foot building on an
approximately 4.7 acre site. Formerly occupied by Metsovo Banking Company,
the site has been fully vacant since September 2016. The building and site are
functionally obsolete and suffering from significant deterioration. Due to the
current condition of the property, the owner is unable to obtain a tenant for the
building and must invest a substantial amount of capital to revitalize the property.
If the 6b is approved, the owner plans to make an initial capital investment of
$160,000 to make the property more marketable. This will include a new HVAC
system. Once a tenant is secured, additional capital will be invested for tenant
improvements. It should be noted that the owner did make $669,513 in
improvements to modernize the building to retain the former tenant.
This property was the recipient of a Cook County 6b tax incentive from 2007
through 2016. According to Cook County, the property is eligible for a new 6b
tax incentive.
Page 9 of 12 11/20/17
(Cont.)
Director McMahon recommended that the City Council approve adopt R-180-17,
approving the requested Class 6b Tax Incentive Resolution of Support subject to
the following condition:
The Applicant has secured a tenant for the Subject Property and provided evidence
to the City, in the form of a valid and effective lease that such tenancy will
commence on a date no later than two years after the adoption of this resolution.
Discussion was held.
Moved by Brookman, seconded by Robinson, to recommend to the City Council
approval of the Letter of Support for a Cook County Class 6b Tax Incentive for
DB CI-1794 W LLC at 1794 S. Winthrop Drive, Des Plaines, IL; and further
recommend to adopt Resolution R-180-17 at the appropriate time this evening.
Upon voice vote, motion declared carried.
CONSIDERATION
OF OUTDOOR
DINING
ASSISTANCE
PROGRAM/
BEACON
TAP/1374 LEE
STREET:
Community and Economic Development Director McMahon reviewed a
memorandum dated October 23, 2017.
The new owners of The Beacon Tap (Deacon Revival) at 1374 Lee Street have
filed a Business Assistance application requesting approval for an Outdoor Dining
grant of $10,000. The applicant recently acquired the long standing business, and
has renovated the building and has recently reopened the bar and grill.
The Program Guidelines require applicants to wait until the grant is approved to
begin work; the outdoor dining fence and electrical work have been completed.
However, the applicant is requesting a waiver of the timing requirements of the
program. The application requests reimbursement for only the new solid fence
and electrical work. According to the quote from Rustic Wood Fencing, the cost
for this portion of the renovation will be $16,930 and North West Electrical Supply
in the amount of $3,382. The total cost of this work is $20,312.
The Outdoor Dining Program is a 50% matching grant for eligible expenses or up
to $10,000. Based upon the program guidelines and with Council support for this
requested timing waiver, the proposed project qualifies for the maximum grant of
$10,000. To date Beacon Tap has been approved and reimbursed for the
following:
Interior Buildout Program: $15,000
Façade Program: $6,386.75
Total: $21,386.75
Director McMahon recommended that the City Council adopt Resolution
R-181-17 to approve the Business Assistance Program applicant for
reimbursement up to $10,000.00 based upon project completion.
Moved by Rodd, seconded by Charewicz, to recommend to the City Council
approval of the Outdoor Dining Assistance Program for The Beacon Tap (Deacon
Revival), 1374 Lee Street, in the Amount of $10,000; and further recommend to
Page 10 of 12 11/20/17

adopt Resolution R-181-17 at the appropriate time this evening. Upon voice vote,
motion declared carried.
DISCUSSION
REGARDING
REDEVELOPMENT
OF 946 NORTH
AVENUE:
Mr. Ponderelli, Developer, explained that he believed a Senior Home facility is the
best option for 946 North Avenue and that it would be difficult to build single
family homes on the property.
Mr. Lonzi, owner of the property, asked the City Council to reconsider allowing a
Senior Home Facilty at 946 North Avenue.
Residents spoke against a Senior Home Facility and felt the property should be
developed as single family homes as is stated in the Comprehensive Plan.
Since this item was already voted on and no new information was brought forward
the consensus was for Mr. Ponderelli to continue discussion with residents of the
area and rework his development plans if he chose to come back to the City
Council for consideration.
COMMUNITY SERVICES – Alderman Chester, Chair
DISCUSSION OF

2017 PROPERTY
TAX LEVY ORD:
Assistant City Manager/Director of Finance Wisniewski explained Section 18-15
of the Illinois Property Tax Code requires that the City adopt a tax levy ordinance
and file it with the County Clerk’s office by the last Tuesday in December. The
2017 Tax Levy, which includes the general (corporate) fund, police and fire
pension funds, public library fund, and bond & interest (debt service) fund, totals
$29,183,150. This represents an increase of $0, or 0% from the 2016 Tax Levy and
a 2.64% decrease over the 2016 Tax Extension.
Moved by Chester, seconded by Lysakowski to recommend to the City Council
Approval of the 2017 Property Tax Levy Ordinance; and further recommend that
Ordinance M-44-17 be adopted at the appropriate time this evening. Upon voice
vote, motion declared carried.
2018 BUDGET
APPROVAL:
Assistant City Manager/Director of Finance Wisniewski explained the City
Council held three budget hearings over the 2018 Proposed Budget document. The
first meeting was held on October 11th and the discussion covered the review of
the General Fund. The second Budget meeting was held on October 18th to review
the Non-General Funds within the Budget document. The final meeting was held
on November 8th for additional and final review of the 2018 Budget. Within those
discussions, the City Council voted and approved all expenditures, revenues, and
the resulting fund balances to support City services and projects.
Page 10 of 18 12/04/17
(Cont.) The Fiscal Year 2018 annual budget totals $167.6M (excluding transfers) or a
$7.6M, 4.3% decrease over the 2017 Budget. The vast majority of this increase is
due to reduced expenditures in the grant funded projects fund as the City has
completed many of the FEMA buyouts within 2017.
Discussion was held regarding the Water/Sewer Fund. Resident Kurt Kipps was
in favor of the current water rates and retiring the debt.
Moved by Robinson, seconded by Brookman to recommend to the City Council
Approval of the 2018 Budget; and further recommended that Resolution R-186-17
be adopted at the appropriate time this evening. Upon voice vote, motion declared
carried.
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT – Alderman Sayad, Chair
CONSIDERATION
OF FINAL PLAT
OF SUBDIVISION/
77 RAND ROAD:
Community and Economic Development Director McMahon reviewed a
memorandum dated November 21, 2017.
The petitioner, Advocate Health, is requesting a Tentative and Final Plat of
Subdivision, under Section 13-2-5 of Subdivision Regulations of the City of
Des Plaines Municipal Code, to allow for the creation of two lots at 77 Rand Road
in the C-3 General Commercial District.
The petitioner’s Final Plat of Subdivision shows the existing 8.191 acre lot being
subdivided into two lots with areas of 1.649 acres (Lot 1) and 6.542 acres (Lot 2).
Lot 1 will have 415.40 feet of frontage along Rand Road and Lot 2 will have
912.14 feet of frontage along Rand Road. The Final Plat of Subdivision shows
easements for water mains, ingress and egress, sanitary sewer, utilities and
drainage, and a public bike path. The 10-foot bike path easement runs along Rand
Road and increases to 15 feet where a right turn lane may be added per IDOT.
There are two curb-cuts off of Rand Road, one with shared access to the Walgreens
northwest of Lot 2 and one with shared access between Lot 1 and Lot 2. The right-
of-way work on Lot 2 has been completed.
The Planning and Zoning Board met on August 22, 2017 and recommended (6-0)
that the City Council approve the Tentative and Final Plat of Subdivision, subject
to ten conditions listed in the staff report. Staff pointed out that since the Planning
and Zoning Board meeting, the petitioner has addressed all ten conditions and as
such they are not listed in the resolution.
Director McMahon recommended approval of the Tentative and Final Plat of
Subdivision for the creation of two lots at 77 Rand Road in the C -3 General
Commercial District.
Discussion was held.
Moved by Smith, seconded by Brookman to recommend to the City Council
Approval of the revised Final Plat of Subdivision presented at tonight’s meeting
for 77 Rand Road (Case #17-064-SUB); and further recommend that Resolution
Page 11 of 18 12/04/17
(Cont.) R-187-17 be adopted at the appropriate time this evening. Upon voice vote,
motion declared carried.
CONSIDERATION
MAJOR
VARIATION/SIDE
YARD SETBACK/
943 WALTER
AVENUE:
Community and Economic Development Director McMahon reviewed a
memorandum dated November 21, 2017.
The petitioner, Erik Kim, proposes to construct an addition requiring a Major
Variation at 943 Walter Avenue. The property is approximately 9,340 square feet
and is currently improved with a single-story, single-family detached home of
1,390 square feet and a detached garage of 788 square feet. The garage is accessed
by a driveway that runs along the west side of the home.
The proposed addition would be located on the west side of the house, over the
existing driveway. The petitioner proposes a 12’2” by 22’2”, two-story addition
that would be 3’ from the side lot line, when a 5’ setback is required. The first story
of the addition would be an attached single-car garage that would have garage
doors on the north and south facades so that a car could drive all the way through
to the existing rear driveway, which would remain. The existing detached garage
is proposed to be demolished. The second story of the addition would be the master
bedroom, closet and bathroom.
The petitioner appeared before the Planning and Zoning Board on
October 24, 2017, for review of the proposal. At that time, the petitioner proposed
that the existing detached garage would remain, which would require an additional
variation as only one garage is permitted. At the meeting, the board members asked
the petitioner if he would be willing to remove the existing detached garage and
he stated that he would. The application was continued to the November 14, 2017,
Planning and Zoning Board meeting to give the petitioner time to revise his site
plan to show the removal of the detached garage. Staff would like to point out that
according to the revised site plan, the existing driveway and patio in the rear of the
home would remain. These areas must remain as-is; otherwise, Minor Variations
for any changes may be required.
The Planning and Zoning Board, recommended (5-1) that the City Council
approve the Major Variation at 943 Walter Avenue.
Director McMahon recommended denial of Ordinance Z-30-17. Although staff
would like to see the property improved, there is space on the east side or in the
rear of the house for an addition that does not encroach into the required 5’ setback.
The proposed addition, with a 3’ setback, will create a situation where a two-story
home is unevenly placed on one side of the lot, with plenty of room on the other.
Discussion was held.
Mr. Kim answered questions from the Aldermen. Mr. Kim will meet with staff
and discuss possible options.
Moved by Rodd, seconded by Brookman to recommend to defer consideration of
Ordinance Z-30-17 until the January 2, 2018 City Council meeting. Upon voice
vote, motion declared carried.

CONSIDERATION
OF MAJOR
VARIANCE/
GARAGE &
ADDITION/
1233 WEBSTER
LANE:
Community and Economic Development Director McMahon reviewed a
memorandum dated November 21, 2017.
The petitioner, Anthony Danno, is requesting two variations for an addition to an
existing detached garage at 1233 Webster Lane. The property is approximately
7,150 square feet and is currently improved with a two-story, single-family
detached home with a footprint of 1,262 square feet and a detached garage of 539
square feet.
The petitioner proposes a garage addition that puts the total garage area over what
is permitted for a detached garage and that encroaches into the required 5’ side -
yard setback. It was noted that the proposed garage addition has already been
constructed, without benefit of a permit. The addition extends 12’ off the rear of
the existing detached garage and is 21’ wide, for a total of 252 square feet. The
addition puts the total garage area at 791 square feet, when 720 square feet is the
maximum permitted. Additionally, the garage addition has a setback of 4’6”, when
a 5’ setback is required.
The Planning and Zoning Board met on November 14, 2017, to consider the Major
Variations. The petitioner explained the proposal and stated that the 12’ by 21’
garage addition was constructed without a permit, as he was unaware one was
needed. He stated that the home does not have a basement, and that additional
storage is needed. No members of the public spoke in support or opposition of the
proposal, but the neighbor to the south at 1243 Webster Lane wrote a letter to the
Planning and Zoning Board to state that he was in support of the garage addition
and would like it to remain.
The Planning and Zoning Board recommended (6-0) that the City Council approve
the Major Variations at 1233 Webster Lane, subject to the following condition:
The petitioner remove all other accessory structures from the property.
Director McMahon recommended approval of Ordinance Z-31-17 granting Major
Variations from Section 12-8-1(C) of the 1998 Des Plaines Zoning Ordinance, as
amended, to allow a detached garage of 791 square feet, when a maximum of 720
square feet is permitted, and to allow an addition to an existing detached garage
with a setback of 4’6”, when a 5’ setback is required.
Mr. Anthony Danno answered questions from the Aldermen.
An inspection of the garage is required before further consideration.
Moved by Rodd, seconded by Brookman, to recommend to defer consideration of
Ordinance Z-31-17 until the December 18, 2017 City Council meeting. Upon voice
vote, motion declared carried.

CONSIDERATION
OF CU PERMIT/
1017
GRACELAND
AVE:
Community and Economic Development Director McMahon reviewed a
memorandum dated November 21, 2017.
The petitioner and contract purchaser of the property, Kevin Kuta, has requested a
Conditional Use Permit for a Trade Contractors Establishment at 1017 Graceland
Avenue. The 14,970 square foot property is currently improved with a one- and
two-story brick building with a partially-paved parking area to the south.
The petitioner proposes to operate a plumbing business, Green Tech Plumbing,
from the existing building and site. The company currently operates out of
Park Ridge. The business has five plumbers per shift and is open 7:00am to 3:30pm
Monday through Friday and 8:00am to 12:00pm on Saturdays. There is one office
employee. No items will be sold or manufactured from the site.
As part of the proposed Conditional Use, the petitioner plans to improve the site
with the addition of a paved parking lot with 16 parking spaces, which is the
minimum amount required per the Zoning Ordinance for the use. The parking
spaces will be big enough to accommodate the vans used by the business. The
petitioner proposes to install an 8-foot chain link fence with screen netting along
the east, west and south property lines and will also provide additional landscape
screening in these areas. A request to waive the traffic study requirement was
granted after review by staff based on the proposed site plan and size of the
operation.
The Planning and Zoning Board met on November 14, 2017 and recommended
(6-0) that the City Council approve the Conditional Use Permit for Trade
Contractors subject to the following condition:
The petitioner work with the City of Des Plaines Publi c Works & Engineering
Department to Ensure that the proposed new parking lot meets all stormwater
management requirements. The Public Works & Engineering Department will
require a drainage and grading plan by a professional engineer with an AutoCAD
disk including state plane coordinates. Additionally, an IDOT permit will be
required to connect the parking lot sewer to the combined sewer in the middle of
Graceland Avenue. An MWRD WMO permit may also be required.
Director McMahon recommended approval of Ordinance Z-32-17 subject to the
condition listed above.
Moved by Robinson, seconded by Chester to recommend to the City Council
Approval of a Consideration of a Conditional Use Permit for a Trade Contractors
Establishment at 1017 Graceland Avenue (Case #17-093-CU); and further
recommend that Ordinance Z-32-17 be adopted at the appropriate time this
evening. Upon voice vote, motion declared carried.
CONSIDERATION
OF FINAL PLAT
OF SUBDIVISION
AND MAJOR
VARIATIONS
Community and Economic Development Director McMahon reviewed a
memorandum dated November 21, 2017.
The petitioner and contract purchaser of the property, Mohammed Makda, is
proposing to subdivide a single lot in the R-1 Single-Family Residential District
Page 14 of 18 12/04/17
FOR 481 EDWARD
COURT:
(Cont.)
into four lots. The 25,999.93 square foot property has frontage on both Edward
Court and Good Avenue and is currently unimproved.
If subdivided, the petitioner proposes to construct four single-family homes, one
on each lot. Each lot is proposed to be 45’ wide and have lot areas between
6,495.50 and 6,504.46 square feet. A lot width of 55’ and a lot area of 6,875 square
feet is required for interior lots in the R-1 Single-Family Residential District,
necessitating the need for lot width and area variations.
The Planning and Zoning Board met on November 14, 2017, to consider the
Tentative and Final Plat of Subdivision and Major Variations. The petitioners
presented the proposal for four new lots, two facing Good Avenue and two facing
Edward Court. They stated that there is a demand for new, single-family homes on
smaller lots and that if the lots are required to be larger, then larger homes will be
built and that these homes will be harder to sell. They stated that they hope to
improve the surrounding neighborhood with the new construction. One member
of the public, a neighbor who lives on Church Street, spoke in opposition of the
proposed subdivision. She stated that she would support the lot being divided into
two, but not four. She stated that the narrow lots are not in line with the character
of the surrounding community.
The Planning and Zoning Board discussed the proposal and shared differing
opinions. After having heard and fully considering the evidence, recommended
(4-2) that the City Council approve the Tentative and Final Plat of Subdivision and
Major Variations at 481 Edward Court.
Director McMahon recommended denial of Ordinance Z-33-17. While staff
supports development of the lot, the proposal for four new homes on narrow lots
is not in line with the character of the surrounding community. Staff would support
the subdivision of the lot into two lots, with one having frontage on Edward Court
and one having frontage on Good Avenue. These new lots would not need
variations for lot width and area, as they would meet the minimum requirements
for the R-1 Single-Family Residential District.
Discussion was held. The Petitioner will discuss their options with staff.
Moved by Lysakowski, seconded by Robinson, to recommend to defer
consideration of Ordinance Z-33-17 until the January 2, 2018 City Council
meeting. Upon voice vote, motion declared carried.
BUILDING CODE – Alderman Robinson, Chair
Alderman Robinson explained this is a continued discussion on how staff
interprets the requirement of face brick coverage on ground story facades for single
family homes.
Community and Economic Development Director McMahon recommended
creating a façade definition and changes for certain sections of the Building Design
Review process:
Page 15 of 18 12/04/17
(Cont.) Throughout Section 12-3-11 the word “facade” is used to describe any exterior
wall of a structure. Staff feels the use of the word is being incorrectly applied.
According to Oxford Dictionary, a facade of a building is “The principal front of
a building that faces on to a street or open space.” Others have argued that a façade
is any face of a building that has an architectural feature.
In order to better define the sides of buildings that are not street facing, staff
recommends replacing “facade” with “elevation”. Elevation is defined as a
particular side of a building, such as the “east elevation.”
Additionally, Director McMahon recommended including the definitions of
facade and elevation in Sec.12-13-3: Definitions of Terms.
Face Brick: A masonry brick product generally 7-5/8" x 3-5/8" x 2-1/4" in size
that has structural properties and made especially for decorative facing of exterior
elevations. Excluded from this definition is brick veneers or panels that have no
structural integrity.
Single Family Residences:
Section 12-3-1.D outlines the standards for building design review as follows:
Facade Materials:
"Permitted facade materials" means the building materials that are permitted to be
used in the construction or alteration of all building facades of a certain type of
building.
1) Exception: All new single-family residences shall be constructed with face brick
on all ground story facades.
Staff recommends amending this section with the following:
Building Elevations Materials:
Permitted elevation materials" means the primary building materials that are
permitted to be used in the construction or alteration of all building exterior
elevations of a certain type of building.
Exception:
Traditional new one story single-family residences shall be constructed with 100%
face brick or other natural material on all elevations excluding windows and doors.
Multi-level or multi-story new single or multi-family residences shall be
constructed with 100% face brick or other natural material on the front facing
facade and 50% on all remaining elevations excluding windows and doors.
Discussion was held.
Staff was directed to research the topic further and provide additional information.

Date: December 12, 2017
To: Michael G. Bartholomew, MCP, LEED-AP, City Manager
From: Michael McMahon, Community and Economic Development Director
Subject: Professional Services Consultant Contract Renewal with Kane, McKenna, and Associates, Inc.
Issue: Illinois State statute requires municipalities to submit annual Tax Increment Finance (TIF) reports
for each redevelopment district to the State Comptroller 180 days after the end of the community’s most
recent fiscal year upon completion of the municipal audit. The City of Des Plaines’ annual audit for fiscal
year 2017 will be completed by June 30, 2018 with the annual TIF reports initiated immediately thereafter.
TIF Annual Reports enable the public and other taxing bodies to review the status of the TIF Districts
pursuant to annual intergovernmental Joint Review Board (JRB) meetings, also required by statute.
Analysis: The City continuously evaluates the performance of the TIF districts with an effort to readjust
plans and goals as feasible in the current improving economy and local real estate market. Translation and
expansion of financial data from the audit to these reports requires not only the technical financial
knowledge and experience but long-term institutional knowledge of the TIF activities. For these reasons
most Illinois municipalities, including Des Plaines, utilize a TIF consultant for reporting and conduct of the
JRB meetings.
Kane, McKenna, and Associates, Inc (KMA) has historically assisted the City’s preparation of the annual
TIF reports. KMA also monitors Equalized Assessed Valuation (EAV) fluctuations and property tax
revenue fluctuations allowing to plan TIF budgets. They have also analyzed the financial impacts of specific
projects within the TIF districts and updated redevelopment plans to reflect uses currently feasible within
the national economy and our local markets.
Recommendation: Given KMA’s expertise and detailed knowledge of the City’s TIF Districts, I
recommend renewing the contract to prepare the annual TIF Reports for calendar year 2018. This includes
retaining KMA for TIF EAV and revenue monitoring, general redevelopment feasibility assessment and
specific financial analysis for projects within our five TIF districts. The maximum annual cost is not to
exceed $44,000 per year. In previous years the full authorized amount was not expended. Those costs are
budgeted within multiple line items within the city budget. The estimate is based upon the following billing
schedule:

of the Services is not adapted to award by competitive bidding because the Services require a high

Subject: Consideration of Text Amendment to Section 12-7-3(H)5.e.2 of the Zoning Ordinance (17-
101-TA)
Issue: City staff is requesting a Text Amendment to Section 12-7-3(H)5.e.2 of the 1998 City of Des Plaines
Zoning Ordinance, as amended, to eliminate the lot area per dwelling unit requirement in the C-5 Central
Business District.
Analysis:
Zoning Code Text Amendment Report
PIN: Citywide
Petitioner: City of Des Plaines, 1420 Miner Street, Des Plaines, IL 60016
Case Number: 17-101-TA
Project Description: Planning staff would like to eliminate the lot area per dwelling unit
requirement in the C-5 Central Business District so that maximum density can
be achieved for future developments in the downtown area. The City’s
Zoning Ordinance for the C-5 Central Business District contains standards
for site plan review. One of those standards is a minimum lot area per
dwelling unit requirement. The text below references this standard:
e.Multiple-Family Dwelling Units: Multiple-family dwelling units
shall be permitted in the C-5 central business district only upon the
following conditions:
(2) The minimum lot area per dwelling unit in the C-5 Central
Business District shall be determined by the number of
bedrooms in the dwelling unit in accordance with the following
table:
MEMORANDUM
Page 1 of 15
When reviewing an application for a multiple-family dwelling development in the C-5
Central Business District, staff first verifies the total square footage of the property.
The chart above is then used to determine the minimum lot area required for the
development based on the number of each type of unit. If the required square footage
based on the unit mix equals or is less than the total square footage of the property, the
development meets the minimum requirement and can be approved by-right (assuming
all other requirements for the zoning district are met). When the square footage total
based on the unit mix is greater than the area of the property, a variance, to be approved
by the City Council, is required.
For example, a developer wants to construct a condominium building in the C-5 Central
Business District on a 50,000 square foot lot. There is a mix of 20 efficiencies, 20 1-
bedrooms, and 10 2-bedrooms ([20 x 1,000] + [20 x 1,200] + [10 x 1,700] = 61,000
square feet). The development will need a variation for total lot area required.
When looking at this requirement from a development perspective of an urban area and
combined with a maximum height of 100’ and a 2-to-1 parking ratio, the minimum lot
area per dwelling unit standard is counterproductive.
Standards for Zoning Code Text Amendment:
To analyze this text amendment request, the standards for amendments contained in Section 12-3-7(E) of the
Zoning Ordinance are used. Following is a discussion of those standards.
1.Whether the proposed amendment is consistent with the goals, objectives, and policies of the
comprehensive plan, as adopted and amended from time to time by the city council;
The C-5 Central Business is the zoning district for Des Plaines’s downtown area. The Long-Range Land
Use Plan of the 2007 Comprehensive Plan calls for mixed-use, high-density development in the areas to
the north and south of the train tracks downtown. However, Section 12-7-3(H)5.e.2 of the Zoning
Ordinance at present is preventing maximum residential density in the downtown area by limiting the
number of residential units permitted based on the size of the lot. As a result, we have proposed multiple-
family buildings that require a variation for number of dwelling units per lot area, but would otherwise be
permitted by-right. As stated in the Comprehensive Plan, the City should be promoting residential density
in the downtown area, not stifling it.
2.Whether the proposed amendment is compatible with current conditions and the overall character
of existing development;
In the downtown area, we see variety of housing and building types, from single-family homes and smaller
2- to 3-flats, all the way up to 8- to 10-story multiple-family and office buildings. The proposed elimination
of the lot area per dwelling unit requirement will not change the maximum height permitted for a building
in the downtown (100’) or the required setbacks, it will just allow the developer to provide more units
Number of Bedroom Minimum Lot Area (Square Feet)
Efficiency dwelling unit 1,000
1 bedroom unit 1,200
2 bedroom unit 1,700
Page 2 of 15
without needing to apply for a variation. Additionally, the developer will still be required to park a proposed
residential development with two parking spaces per dwelling unit, as required by code.
3. Whether the proposed amendment is appropriate considering the adequacy of public facilities and
services available to this subject property;
The proposed amendment is not anticipated to affect public facilities and available services. Should the
public facilities not be adequate for the proposed density of a development, it will be the responsibility of
the developer to make upgrades and improvements.
4. Whether the proposed amendment will have an adverse effect on the value of properties throughout
the jurisdiction; and
The proposed amendment is anticipated to facilitate residential development in the downtown, which can
spur redevelopment and raise property values in the surrounding area.
5. Whether the proposed amendment reflects responsible standards for development and growth. (Ord.
Z-8-98, 9-21-1998)
The proposed amendment will encourage and make easier residential development in the downtown, which
is a goal of the 2007 Comprehensive Plan. Residents in the downtown may patronize downtown businesses,
which is a benefit for all. Increased residential development in the downtown also supports the notion of
“Transit-Oriented Development.”
Planning and Zoning Board Review: The Planning and Zoning Board met on November 28, 2017, to
consider the Text Amendment to Section 12-7-3(H)5.e.2 of the Zoning Ordinance. The Community and
Economic Development Department presented the proposed Text Amendment. Staff stated that there is
currently a lot area per dwelling unit requirement in the C-5 Central Business District that they hope to
eliminate. This requirement limits the number of dwelling units that can be built, based on the size of the lot.
Staff believes that this requirement is counterproductive to the goal of adding residential density in the
downtown, especially when a proposed project otherwise meets the required height, setback, and parking
requirements per the Zoning Ordinance. No members of the public spoke in either support or opposition of
the proposed Text Amendment.
The Planning and Zoning Board, after having heard and fully considering the evidence, recommended (5-1)
that the City Council approve the proposed Text Amendment.
Recommendations: I recommend approval of Ordinance Z - 34 - 17 amending the text of the Des Plaines
Zoning Ordinance regarding lot area per dwelling unit in the C-5 Central Business District.
Pursuant to Section 12-3-7(D) of the Zoning Ordinance, the City Council has the authority to approve, approve
with modifications, or disapprove the application.
It is requested that this item be placed on the Committee of the Whole agenda at the December 18, 2017, City
Council meeting.

Citywide 17-101-TA
The C-5 Central Business District is the zoning district for Des Plaines's downtown area. The Long-Range
Land Use Plan of the 2007 Comprehensive Plan calls for mixed-use, high-density development in the areas
to the north and south of the train tracks downtown. However, Section 12-7-3(H)5.e.2 of the Zoning
Ordinance at present is preventing maximum residential density in the downtown area by limiting
the number of residential units permitted based on the size of the lot. As a result, we have proposed
multiple-family buildings that require a variation for number of dwelling units per lot area, but would
otherwise be permitted by right. As stated in the Comprehensive Plan, the City should be promoting
residential density in the downtown area, not stifling it.
The C-5 Central Business District is the zoning district for Des Plaines's downtown area. In this area, we see
a variety of housing and building types, from single-family homes and smaller 2- to 3-flats, all the way
up to 8- to 10-story multiple-family and office buildings. The proposed elimination of the lot area per
dwelling unit requirement will not change the maximum height permitted for a building in the downtown (100')
or the required setbacks, it will just allow the developer to provide more units without needing to apply for a
variation. Additionally, the developer will still be required to park a proposed residential development with two
parking spaces per dwelling unit, as required by code.
The proposed amendment is not anticipated to affect public facilities and available services. Should the
public facilities not be adequate for the proposed density of a development, it will be the responsibility
of the developer to make upgrades and improvements.

Subject: Planning and Zoning Board, Text Amendment to Section 12-7-3(H)5.e.2 of the Zoning
Ordinance, 17-101-TA
RE: Consideration of Elimination of Lot Area per Dwelling Unit Requirement in the C-5 Central
Business District
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Des Plaines City Council:
The Planning and Zoning Board met on November 28, 2017, to consider a Text Amendment to Section 12-7-
3(H)5.e.2 of the 1998 City of Des Plaines Zoning Ordinance, as amended, to eliminate the lot area per dwelling
unit requirement in the C-5 Central Business District.
1. The Community and Economic Development Department presented the proposed Text Amendment.
Staff stated that there is currently a lot area per dwelling unit requirement in the C-5 Central Business
District that they hope to eliminate. This requirement limits the number of dwelling units that can be
built, based on the size of the lot. Staff believes that this requirement is counterproductive to the goal
of adding residential density in the downtown, especially when a proposed project otherwise meets
the required height, setback, and parking requirements per the Zoning Ordinance.
2. No members of the public spoke in either support or opposition of the Text Amendment.
3. The Planning and Zoning Board recommended (5-1) that the City Council approve the proposed Text
Amendment to Section 12-7-3(H)5.e.2 of the Zoning Ordinance.
Respectfully submitted,
James Szabo,
Des Plaines Planning and Zoning Board, Chairman

Petitioner: City of Des Plaines, 1420 Miner Street, Des Plaines, IL 60016
Case Number: 17-101-TA
Project Description: Planning staff would like to eliminate the lot area per dwelling unit
requirement in the C-5 Central Business District so that maximum
density can be achieved by future developers in the downtown area. The
City’s Zoning Ordinance for the C-5 Central Business District contains
standards for site plan review. One of those standards is a minimum lot
area per dwelling unit requirement. The text below references this
standard:
e. Multiple-Family Dwelling Units: Multiple-family dwelling
units shall be permitted in the C-5 central business district
only upon the following conditions:
(2) The minimum lot area per dwelling unit in the C-5
Central Business District shall be determined by the
number of bedrooms in the dwelling unit in
accordance with the following table:
Number of Bedroom Minimum Lot Area (Square Feet)
Efficiency dwelling unit 1,000
1 bedroom unit 1,200
2 bedroom unit 1,700
Attachment 3 Page 9 of 15
Case #17-099-V-MAP 1300 Jefferson MAP Amendment & Variations
Case #17-101-TA Citywide Text Amendment
November 28, 2017
Page 10
When reviewing an application for a multiple-family dwelling development in the
C-5 Central Business District, staff first verifies the total square footage of the
property. Then, the chart above is used to determine the minimum lot area
required for the development based on the number of each type of unit. If the
required square footage based on the unit mix equals or is less than the total square
footage of the property, the development meets the minimum requirement and can
be approved by-right (assuming all other requirements for the zoning district are
met). When the square footage total based on the unit mix is greater than the area
of the property, a variance, to be approved by the City Council, is required.
For example, a developer wants to construct a condominium building in the C-5
Central Business District on a 50,000 square foot lot. There is a mix of 20
efficiencies, 20 1-bedrooms, and 10 2-bedrooms ([20 x 1,000] + [20 x 1,200] +
[10 x 1,700] = 61,000 square feet). The development will need a variation for total
lot area required.
When looking at this requirement from a development perspective of an urban
area and combined with a maximum height of 100’ and a 2-to-1 parking ratio, the
minimum lot area per dwelling unit standard is counterproductive.
Standards for Zoning Code Text Amendment:
To analyze this text amendment request, the standards for amendments contained in Section 12-3-7(E) of the
Zoning Ordinance are used. Following is a discussion of those standards.
1. Whether the proposed amendment is consistent with the goals, objectives, and policies of the
comprehensive plan, as adopted and amended from time to time by the city council;
The C-5 Central Business is the zoning district for Des Plaines’s downtown area. The Long-Range Land
Use Plan of the 2007 Comprehensive Plan calls for mixed-use, high-density development in the areas to
the north and south of the train tracks downtown. However, Section 12-7-3(H)5.e.2 of the Zoning
Ordinance at present is preventing maximum residential density in the downtown area by limiting the
number of residential units permitted based on the size of the lot. As a result, we have proposed multiple-
family buildings that require a variation for number of dwelling units per lot area, but would otherwise be
permitted by-right. As stated in the Comprehensive Plan, the City should be promoting residential density
in the downtown area, not stifling it.
2. Whether the proposed amendment is compatible with current conditions and the overall character
of existing development;
In the downtown area, we see variety of housing and building types, from single-family homes and smaller
2- to 3-flats, all the way up to 8- to 10-story multiple-family and office buildings. The proposed
elimination of the lot area per dwelling unit requirement will not change the maximum height permitted
for a building in the downtown (100’) or the required setbacks, it will just allow the developer to provide
more units without needing to apply for a variation. Additionally, the developer will still be required to
park a proposed residential development with two parking spaces per dwelling unit, as required by code.
3. Whether the proposed amendment is appropriate considering the adequacy of public facilities and
services available to this subject property;
Attachment 3 Page 10 of 15
Case #17-099-V-MAP 1300 Jefferson MAP Amendment & Variations
Case #17-101-TA Citywide Text Amendment
November 28, 2017
Page 11
The proposed amendment is not anticipated to affect public facilities and available services. Should the
public facilities not be adequate for the proposed density of a development, it will be the responsibility of
the developer to make upgrades and improvements.
4. Whether the proposed amendment will have an adverse effect on the value of properties throughout
the jurisdiction; and
The proposed amendment is anticipated to facilitate residential development in the downtown, which can
spur redevelopment and raise property values in the surrounding area.
5. Whether the proposed amendment reflects responsible standards for development and growth.
(Ord. Z-8-98, 9-21-1998)
The proposed amendment will encourage and make easier residential development in the downtown,
which is a goal of the 2007 Comprehensive Plan. Residents in the downtown may patronize downtown
businesses, which is a benefit for all. Increased residential development in the downtown also supports
the notion of “Transit-Oriented Development.”
Recommendation: The Community and Economic Development Department recommends approval of the
proposed text amendment to the 1998 City of Des Plaines Zoning Ordinance, as amended, to eliminate the
lot area per dwelling unit requirement in the C-5 Central Business District.
Planning & Zoning Board Procedure: Pursuant to Sections 12-3-7(D)3 of the Zoning Code, the Planning
and Zoning Board may vote to recommend approval, approval with modifications, or disapproval. The City
Council has final authority over the Text Amendment.
Vice Chair Saletnik stated this is another way of having a more vibrant downtown. He noted other suburbs
with vibrant downtowns are a result of existing clientele. Vice Chair Saletnik stated he supports this proposal.
Board Member Catalano asked if other suburbs have the lot area per dwelling unit requirement. Senior
Planner Bye advised – they do not.
A motion was made by Board Member Catalano, seconded by Board Member Bader, to recommend approval
to City Council as presented.
AYES: Catalano, Bader, Fowler, Hofherr, Saletnik
NAYES: Schell
***MOTION CARRIED 5-1***
Vice Chair Saletnik advised a recommendation for approval would be submitted to City Council.
ADJOURNMENT
Vice Chair Saletnik adjourned the meeting at 7:55 p.m. On a voice vote, the vote carried unanimously.

Project Description The petitioner (the contract purchaser) proposes to rezone 1300 Jefferson Street
from the C-3 General Commercial District to the R-4 Central Core Residential
District in order to redevelop the office building into 16 apartments. Dwelling
units are not permitted in the C-3 General Commercial District, but are
permitted in the R-4 Central Core Residential District. The property is
approximately 21,875 square feet and is improved with two- and three-story
stucco building. The existing building has an approximate footprint of 9,162
square feet and a total area of 24,664 between all three floors.
The petitioner is proposing to convert the office building into 16 apartment
units, comprised of 14 two-bedroom, two-bathroom units that range in area
from 1,000 to 1,250 square feet and two three-bedroom, two-bathroom units
that are 1,500 square feet. The petitioner proposes 32 parking spaces, which is
the number required per the Zoning Ordinance (two parking spaces per dwelling
unit).
Properties that are rezoned must meet the bulk requirements of the proposed
new zoning district. As is, the structure at 1300 Jefferson Street does not meet
the front (12’ required; 4.75’ existing), side (5’ required; 0’ existing), and rear
(25’ required; 1’ existing) yard setbacks required for properties in the R-4
Central Core Residential District. As a result, the petitioner has requested
variations for the above existing setbacks.
Staff would like clarification from the petitioner on the proposed improvements
to the exterior of the building. Though color elevations have been provided, it
is difficult to determine proposed changes to the materials, colors, and
architectural style of the building.
Zoning Map Amendment Findings
As required, the proposed amendment is reviewed below in terms of the standards contained in Section 12-3-
7(E) of the Zoning Ordinance:
A. Whether the proposed amendment is consistent with the goals, objectives, and policies of the
Comprehensive Plan.
Comment: The 2007 City of Des Plaines Comprehensive Plan designates the area as Residential - High-
Density Multi-Family. As defined by the Plan, Residential - High-Density Multi-Family areas consist of
multiple-family dwellings, generally at a density of up to 60 dwelling units per acre. This type of multi-family
Page 2 of 44
housing is typically in structures that are over four stories in overall height and includes physical
characteristics such as shared lobbies and centralized parking facilities. At 32 units on a 21,875 square foot
lot, the proposed apartment building is slightly over the 60 units per acre recommended. However, this is just
slighting above the recommendation and all units are proposed to be parked accordingly (two parking spaces
per unit).
B. Whether the proposed amendment is compatible with the current conditions and the overall
character of existing developments in the immediate vicinity of the subject property.
Comment: Currently, the building is used for commercial purposes, but is mostly vacant. While there are other
commercial uses to the south and west, there are multiple-family residential uses to the north and east. The
redevelopment and improvement of 1300 Jefferson Street will ensure that the site better fits with the
surrounding community.
C. Whether the proposed amendment is appropriate considering the adequacy of public facilities and
services available to the subject property.
Comment: The public facilities and services provided by the City of Des Plaines are expected to be adequate
within this area. Should the public facilities not be adequate for the proposed residential redevelopment, it
will be the responsibility of the petitioner to make upgrades and improvements
D. Whether the proposed amendment will have an adverse effect on the value of properties throughout
the jurisdiction.
Comment: The redevelopment and improvement of the building and site is expected to have a positive impact
on the value of properties in the area.
E. Whether the proposed amendment reflects responsible standards for development and growth.
Comment: The proposed Map Amendment to reclassify the property to the R-4 Central Core Residential
District is in line with the Comprehensive Plan’s proposed land use for the site. The addition of residential
units to this area promotes the concept of “Transit-Oriented Development” and adds residents to the
downtown that can help spur further economic development.
Variation Findings
Variation requests are subject to the standards set forth in Section 12-3-6(H) of the 1998 City of Des Plaines
Zoning Ordinance, as amended. In reviewing these standards, staff has the following comments:
1. Hardship: No variation shall be granted pursuant to this subsection H unless the applicant
shall establish that carrying out the strict letter of the provisions of this title would create a
particular hardship or a practical difficulty:
Comment: The petitioner has stated that they are not seeking to alter the footprint of the building in
any way, simply to rezone to property to allow for the buildout of 16 dwelling units. The building as
it exists does not meet the setbacks of the proposed R-4 Central Core Residential District. If the
petitioner is required to come into compliance with the current setback standards for the R-4 District,
it would make the redevelopment cost-prohibitive as the building would need to be significantly
altered.
2. Unique Physical Condition: The subject lot is exceptional as compared to other lots subject to
the same provision by reason of a unique physical condition, including presence of an existing
Page 3 of 44
use, structure, or sign, whether conforming or nonconforming; irregular or substandard shape
or size; exceptional topographical features; or other extraordinary physical conditions peculiar
to and inherent in the subject lot that amount to more than a mere inconvenience to the owner
and that relate to or arise out of the lot rather than the personal situation of the current owner
of the lot:
Comment: The building as it stands is non-compliant in regards to the setback standards for the R-4
Central Core Residential District. Currently, the building is used for commercial purposes, but is
primarily vacant. Staff agrees with the petitioner’s assessment that the highest and best use for the
property is residential, as opposed to commercial.
3. Not Self-Created: The aforesaid unique physical condition is not the result of any action or
inaction of the owner or its predecessors in title and existed at the time of the enactment of the
provisions from which a variance is sought or was created by natural forces or was the result
of governmental action, other than the adoption of this title:
Comment: The lot has already been developed. The petitioner is not seeking to make changes to the
buildings or lot, simply to rezone the property to allow for the redevelopment of the building as
residential units.
4. Denied Substantial Rights: The carrying out of the strict letter of the provision from which a
variance is sought would deprive the owner of the subject lot of substantial rights commonly
enjoyed by owners of other lots subject to the same provision:
Comment: The petitioner has stated that denial of the variations would prohibit them from constructing
the dwelling units as proposed, as the building as it stands is non-compliant. The petitioner has stated
that denial of the variations would prevent the improvement to and investment in downtown Des
Plaines.
5. Not Merely Special Privilege: The alleged hardship or difficulty is neither merely the inability
of the owner or occupant to enjoy some special privilege or additional right not available to
owners or occupants of other lots subject to the same provision, nor merely the inability of the
owner to make more money from the use of the subject lot:
Comment: The required setback variations result from the proposed zoning change. No changes are
proposed for the already established site; the petitioner seeks to redevelop the building for residential
use.
6. Title And Plan Purposes: The variation would not result in a use or development of the subject
lot that would be not in harmony with the general and specific purposes for which this title and
the provision from which a variation is sought were enacted or the general purpose and intent
of the comprehensive plan:
Comment: Though no changes are proposes to the footprint of the building, the petitioner proposes to
improve the exterior of the building which will improve the quality of the surrounding neighborhood.
However, staff would like clarification from the petitioner on the proposed improvements. Though
color elevations have been provided, it is difficult to determine proposed changes to the materials,
colors, and architectural style of the building.
Planning and Zoning Board Review: The Planning and Zoning Board met on November 28, 2017, to
consider the Map Amendment and Major Variations. The petitioner presented the proposal to convert the
Page 4 of 44
existing office building into 16 apartments. He stated that 14 2-bedroom units and two 3-bedroom units are
proposed and 32 parking spaces. He stated that cosmetic changes will be made to the building and clarified
that the variations are required for the existing setbacks of the building, since they do not meet the required
setbacks for the R-4 Central Core Residential District. He stated that the units would be high-end luxury
apartments and that the targeted tenants are young professionals who are looking for walkability within Des
Plaines and easy access to Chicago.
Several members of the public spoke with concerns over the proposal, including: the alley to the north of the
development being dangerous and already having too much traffic, too much housing being built downtown,
and parking problems in the area. Staff clarified that the proposal as presented does not allow for traffic
through to the alley, only on to Jefferson Street.
A current tenant of the building, who has a tax business, stated that he has a month-to-month lease and inquired
as to how long he will be permitted to stay in the building. He stated that January through April is his busy
season and that having to vacate the premises during that time would be a burden to the business. The applicant
stated that given the timeline for approval from the City Council and the permitting process, the tenant will
be able to stay through April at a minimum.
The current owner of the property spoke and stated that he has had interest in the building for a residential
use, as opposed to commercial. He stated that there is no longer a market for office in that area and that other
interested purchasers have wanted to build many more apartments above the 16 currently proposed. He stated
that the proposed rehab of the building will be an improvement to downtown Des Plaines and that additional
residents can help the existing retail and office spaces in the downtown succeed.
The Planning and Zoning Board, after having heard and fully considering the evidence, recommended (5-1)
that the City Council approve the Map Amendment and Major Variations at 1300 Jefferson Street.
Recommendations: I recommend approval of Ordinance Z - 35 - 17 approving a Zoning Map Amendment
and Major Variations at 1300 Jefferson Street. The residential redevelopment of the building is the highest
and best use for the site.
Pursuant to Sections 12-3-6(G) and 12-3-7(D) of the Zoning Ordinance, the City Council has the authority to
approve, approve with modifications, or disapprove the applications.
It is requested that this item be placed on the Committee of the Whole agenda at the December 18, 2017, City
Council meeting.

Mayor Bogusz and Des Plaines City Council
CITY OF DES PLAINES
Subject: Planning and Zoning Board, 1300 Jefferson Street, 17-099-V-MAP, 1st Ward
RE: Consideration of Map Amendment and Major Variations at 1300 Jefferson Street
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Des Plaines City Council:
The Planning and Zoning Board met on November 28, 2017, to consider an Amendment to the Official Des
Plaines Zoning Map, as amended, to reclassify 1300 Jefferson Street from the C-3 General Commercial
District to the R-4 Central Core Residential District, in order to permit the construction of 16 apartment units
in the existing building, and Major Variations under Section 12-7-2(J) of the 1998 Des Plaines Zoning
Ordinance, as amended, to allow a front yard setback of 4.75’, when a minimum of 12’ is required; a side
yard setback of 0’, when 5’ is required; and a rear yard setback of 1’, when 25’ is required, in the R-4 Central
Core Residential District.
1. The petitioner presented the proposal to convert the existing office building into 16 apartments. He
stated that 14 2-bedroom units and two 3-bedroom units are proposed. He stated that the site will have
32 parking spaces, which is two per unit. He stated that the footprint of the existing building will not
change, but that cosmetic changes will be made to the building. He clarified that the variations are
required for the existing setbacks of the building, since they do not meet the required setbacks for the
R-4 Central Core Residential District. He stated that the units would be high-end luxury apartments
and that the targeted tenants are young professionals who are looking for walkability within Des
Plaines and easy access to Chicago.
3. Several members of the public spoke with concerns over the proposal, which included: the alley to the
north of the development being dangerous and already having too much traffic, too much housing
being built downtown, and parking problems in the area. Staff clarified that the proposal as presented
does not allow for traffic through to the alley, only on to Jefferson Street.
3. A current tenant of the building, who has a tax business, stated that he has a month-to-month lease and
inquired as to how long he will be permitted to stay in the building. He stated that January through
April is his busy season and that having to vacate the premises during that time would be a burden to
the business. The applicant stated that given the timeline for approval from the City Council and the
permitting process, the tenant will be able to stay through April at a minimum.
4. The current owner of the property spoke and stated that he has had interest in the building for a
residential use, as opposed to commercial. He stated that there is no longer a market for office in that
area and that other interested purchasers have wanted to build many more apartments above the 16
currently proposed. He stated that the proposed rehab of the building will be an improvement to
downtown Des Plaines and that additional residents can help the existing retail and office spaces in
the downtown succeed.
Attachment 6 Page 19 of 44
5. The Planning and Zoning Board recommended (5-1) that the City Council approve the Map
Amendment and Major Variations, subject to the condition that the applicant/contract purchaser allow
the current tax business tenant to occupy the building through April 30, 2018, at a minimum.
Respectfully submitted,
James Szabo,
Des Plaines Planning and Zoning Board, Chairman

Owners: Standard Bank & Trust Co. as Trustee TRUST DTD 1/4/1999 and known as TR#16130,

Vice Chair Saletnik swore in Colleen Doherty, Associate Attorney & Paul Kolpak, Kolpak Lerner and
Grcic, 6767 N. Milwaukee Avenue, Suite 202, Niles, IL; John Hanna, Hanna Architects Inc., 180 W.
Washington, Chicago, IL; and Rafal Stopa, RO Precision Inc., 5126 Mission Drive, Norridge, IL 60706.
Ms. Doherty advised they are here for two matters. Currently there is vacant office space; variations were
noted. There is no new construction; bringing existing building to code since it does not meet setbacks.
Mr. Hanna noted:
o existing 3-story building is there; other area of building is 2-story
o proposing 16 apartments; 1100 sq. ft.; 2-3 bedrooms
o new stairs
o DRYVIT on exterior will be removed, colored stucco will be added
o ADA accessible
Ms. Doherty asked Mr. Hanna to speak to setback requirements. Mr. Hanna stated they are trying to save an
existing structure and that they would not be able to alter the existing building to meet the required setbacks
for the R-4 zoning district they are proposing to be in.
Vice Chair Saletnik asked if Petitioner is keeping the exterior and changing the interior. Mr. Hanna advised
– yes.
Mr. Stopa advised these apartments are intended for young professionals. Rents are estimated at $1600-2000
per unit. He noted he has 3 other buildings; one was gutted and 9 apartments were added at 3570 N. Avondale
in Chicago.
Board Member Fowler asked:
o where the 32 parking spaces are. Mr. Hanna illustrated same.
o if Petitioners are accepting Section 8 Housing. Mr. Kolpak advised – one cannot deny Section 8
Housing though that is not the intention.
Board Member Hofherr referred to the parking lot on the East side of the building, stating it is difficult to
enter and exit. He asked if there would be an entry on the North end to the alley. Mr. Hanna advised – the
owner would request to remove the City blocking area so that the alley can be accessed.
Vice Chair Saletnik asked if there will not be a side entry, and if everything is happening off of the front with
no egress. Mr. Hanna advised – there is an egress, and everything happens in front. He illustrated stairs and
exits.
Vice Chair Saletnik asked if the Board has any questions. There were none. He asked if anyone in the
audience is in favor of the proposal. No one raised his/her hands. He asked if anyone is against the
proposal. The following came forward and were sworn in:
o Margaret Lesniak 1347 Perry

Concerns are:
area in alley is congested (with apartment building and condos); length of the alleyway is
to accommodate parking
easement is unusual for a residential building
don’t see a benefit to the community
there are new apartments and condos in this area; this building may not be sustained
too congested
would generate more garbage
no space between building and alley on one side
my building has vacancies
not sure if one can have only one entrance
compromises the quality of my building
o Leonardo Galati 1362 Jefferson (lived here since 1998; owns the 60-unit building next
door)
Concerns are:
disappointed that condo owners are not in attendance
building was meant to be a 9-5 office building
area is congested
where will visitors park? People park on my property now
would like to see building developed but apartments don’t make sense
would like fairness to occur
we want something nice not uncomfortable
Board Member Hofherr asked/stated:
if Mr. Galati’s building is an apartment building. Mr. Galati replied – it is
if Mr. Galati has had any problems renting. Mr. Galati responded – yes and no; it would
be more desirable if 2 parking spaces could be included.
The building already exists with the setbacks as proposed. Senior Planner Bye added –
the footprint won’t change; interior improvements will occur.
Mr. Galati asked if the building would be 3-story everywhere. Mr. Hanna advised it would not.
They would maintain the 2-story portion of the building.
Vice Chair Saletnik stated some of these circumstances are there presently and not the result of Petitioner.
Setbacks on the building may have been in existence before the Ordinance. Senior Planner Bye provided
existing and proposed (cosmetic) elevation copies to audience members.
Audience member returned to the podium:
o Margaret Lesniak 1347 Perry
She asked:
how many parking spaces there are now. Ms. Doherty advised – 31, and 1 space is being
added. Ms. Lesniak advised she counted differently.
where is the trash and when are pick-up times? Mr. Hanna advised – garbage pick-up is
once every 2 weeks from the alley.
if the first floor is the ground floor. Mr. Hanna replied – yes
More audience members came forward and were sworn in:
o Raymond Alperstein Rents office space in current building

Page 4
Mr. Alperstein had the following question/comment:
how long he can stay in building as their lease would not be renewed, and their busy time
is January-April. Mr. Kolpak advised – due to permits, etc., the tenant may remain, as
renovation will take place after April, 2018.
current waste pick-up is weekly
o Michael Marous 300 S. Northwest Highway, Suite 204 (existing owner)
Mr. Marous provided the following information:
bought building 15 years ago (Class C office building); market took a turn
there is not a restriction on working hours (in the building)
have received offers though it is not economically feasible to tear down and rebuild
transit-oriented development
office building hasn’t worked; occupancy is low
this will be a significant improvement – more modern, efficient; better space
Vice Chair Saletnik asked about the demographic of a proposed tenant. Mr. Stopa stated:
o they will be young professionals; a couple
o will have 1 car and will take the train or Uber
o 2 parking spaces per unit are proposed
o believes 75% of parking lot will be full
Board Member Fowler asked how owner plans on marketing to proposed tenants. Mr. Stopa advised he
works with a marketing agency that has excellent strategies.
Vice Chair Saletnik asked if the Board has further questions. No one responded. He asked Staff to provide
the Staff Report which Senior Planner Bye did:

Street Classification The Comprehensive Plan designates Jefferson Street as a local street

property
Project Description The petitioner (the contract purchaser) proposes to rezone 1300 Jefferson
Street from the C-3 General Commercial District to the R-4 Central Core
Residential District in order to redevelop the office building into 16
apartments. Dwelling units are not permitted in the C-3 General
Commercial District, but are permitted in the R-4 Central Core
Residential District. The property is approximately 21,875 square feet
and is improved with two- and three-story stucco building. The existing
building has an approximate footprint of 9,162 square feet and a total
area of 24,664 between all three floors.
The petitioner is proposing to convert the office building into 16
apartment units, comprised of 14 two-bedroom, two-bathroom units that
range in area from 1,000 to 1,250 square feet and two three-bedroom,
two-bathroom units that are 1,500 square feet. The petitioner proposes
32 parking spaces, which is the number required per the Zoning
Ordinance (two parking spaces per dwelling unit).
Properties that are rezoned must meet the bulk requirements of the
proposed new zoning district. As is, the structure at 1300 Jefferson Street
does not meet the front (12’ required; 4.75’ existing), side (5’ required;
0’ existing), and rear (25’ required; 1’ existing) yard setbacks required
for properties in the R-4 Central Core Residential District. As a result,
the petitioner has requested variations for the above existing setbacks.
Staff would like clarification from the petitioner on the proposed
improvements to the exterior of the building. Though color elevations
have been provided, it is difficult to determine proposed changes to the
materials, colors, and architectural style of the building.

Zoning Map Amendment Findings
As required, the proposed amendment is reviewed below in terms of the standards contained in Section 12-
3-7(E) of the Zoning Ordinance:
A. Whether the proposed amendment is consistent with the goals, objectives, and policies of the
Comprehensive Plan.
Comment: The 2007 City of Des Plaines Comprehensive Plan designates the area as Residential - High-
Density Multi-Family. As defined by the Plan, Residential - High-Density Multi-Family areas consist of
multiple-family dwellings, generally at a density of up to 60 dwelling units per acre. This type of multi-
family housing is typically in structures that are over four stories in overall height and includes physical
characteristics such as shared lobbies and centralized parking facilities. At 32 units on a 21,875 square foot
lot, the proposed apartment building is slightly over the 60 units per acre recommended. However, this is just
slighting above the recommendation and all units are proposed to be parked accordingly (two parking spaces
per unit).
B. Whether the proposed amendment is compatible with the current conditions and the overall
character of existing developments in the immediate vicinity of the subject property.
Comment: Currently, the building is used for commercial purposes, but is mostly vacant. While there are
other commercial uses to the south and west, there are multiple-family residential uses to the north and east.
The redevelopment and improvement of 1300 Jefferson Street will ensure that the site better fits with the
surrounding community.
C. Whether the proposed amendment is appropriate considering the adequacy of public facilities and
services available to the subject property.
Comment: The public facilities and services provided by the City of Des Plaines are expected to be adequate
within this area. Should the public facilities not be adequate for the proposed residential redevelopment, it
will be the responsibility of the petitioner to make upgrades and improvements
D. Whether the proposed amendment will have an adverse effect on the value of properties throughout
the jurisdiction.
Comment: The redevelopment and improvement of the building and site is expected to have a positive impact
on the value of properties in the area.
E. Whether the proposed amendment reflects responsible standards for development and growth.
Comment: The proposed Map Amendment to reclassify the property to the R-4 Central Core Residential
District is in line with the Comprehensive Plan’s proposed land use for the site. The addition of residential
units to this area promotes the concept of “Transit-Oriented Development” and adds residents to the
downtown that can help spur further economic development.
Variation Findings
Attachment 7 Page 26 of 44
Case #17-099-V-MAP 1300 Jefferson MAP Amendment & Variations
Case #17-101-TA Citywide Text Amendment
November 28, 2017
Page 7
Variation requests are subject to the standards set forth in Section 12-3-6(H) of the 1998 City of Des Plaines
Zoning Ordinance, as amended. In reviewing these standards, staff has the following comments:
1. Hardship: No variation shall be granted pursuant to this subsection H unless the applicant
shall establish that carrying out the strict letter of the provisions of this title would create a
particular hardship or a practical difficulty:
Comment: The petitioner has stated that they are not seeking to alter the footprint of the building in
any way, simply to rezone to property to allow for the buildout of 16 dwelling units. The building
as it exists does not meet the setbacks of the proposed R-4 Central Core Residential District. If the
petitioner is required to come into compliance with the current setback standards for the R-4 District,
it would make the redevelopment cost-prohibitive as the building would need to be significantly
altered.
2. Unique Physical Condition: The subject lot is exceptional as compared to other lots subject
to the same provision by reason of a unique physical condition, including presence of an
existing use, structure, or sign, whether conforming or nonconforming; irregular or
substandard shape or size; exceptional topographical features; or other extraordinary
physical conditions peculiar to and inherent in the subject lot that amount to more than a
mere inconvenience to the owner and that relate to or arise out of the lot rather than the
personal situation of the current owner of the lot:
Comment: The building as it stands is non-compliant in regards to the setback standards for the R-
4 Central Core Residential District. Currently, the building is used for commercial purposes, but is
primarily vacant. Staff agrees with the petitioner’s assessment that the highest and best use for the
property is residential, as opposed to commercial.
3. Not Self-Created: The aforesaid unique physical condition is not the result of any action or
inaction of the owner or its predecessors in title and existed at the time of the enactment of
the provisions from which a variance is sought or was created by natural forces or was the
result of governmental action, other than the adoption of this title:
Comment: The lot has already been developed. The petitioner is not seeking to make changes to the
buildings or lot, simply to rezone the property to allow for the redevelopment of the building as
residential units.
4. Denied Substantial Rights: The carrying out of the strict letter of the provision from which a
variance is sought would deprive the owner of the subject lot of substantial rights commonly
enjoyed by owners of other lots subject to the same provision:
Comment: The petitioner has stated that denial of the variations would prohibit them from
constructing the dwelling units as proposed, as the building as it stands is non-compliant. The
petitioner has stated that denial of the variations would prevent the improvement to and investment
in downtown Des Plaines.
5. Not Merely Special Privilege: The alleged hardship or difficulty is neither merely the
inability of the owner or occupant to enjoy some special privilege or additional right not
available to owners or occupants of other lots subject to the same provision, nor merely the
inability of the owner to make more money from the use of the subject lot:
Comment: The required setback variations result from the proposed zoning change. No changes are
proposed for the already established site; the petitioner seeks to redevelop the building for residential
use.

Case #17-099-V-MAP 1300 Jefferson MAP Amendment & Variations
Case #17-101-TA Citywide Text Amendment
November 28, 2017
Page 8
6. Title And Plan Purposes: The variation would not result in a use or development of the
subject lot that would be not in harmony with the general and specific purposes for which
this title and the provision from which a variation is sought were enacted or the general
purpose and intent of the comprehensive plan:
Comment: Though no changes are proposes to the footprint of the building, the petitioner proposes
to improve the exterior of the building which will improve the quality of the surrounding
neighborhood. However, staff would like clarification from the petitioner on the proposed
improvements. Though color elevations have been provided, it is difficult to determine proposed
changes to the materials, colors, and architectural style of the building.
Recommendation: I recommend approval of the Amendment to the Official Des Plaines Zoning Map, as
amended, to reclassify the property from the C-3 General Commercial District to the R-4 Central Core
Residential District, in order to permit the construction of 16 apartment units in the existing building, and
Major Variations under Section 12-7-2(J) of the 1998 Des Plaines Zoning Ordinance, as amended, to allow
a front yard setback of 4.75’, when a minimum of 12’ is required; a side yard setback of 0’, when 5’ is
required; and a rear yard setback of 1’, when 25’ is required, in the R-4 Central Core Residential District.
The residential redevelopment of the building is the highest and best use for the site.
Plan & Zoning Board Procedure: Under Sections 12-3-6(G)2 (Procedure for Review and Decision for
Variations) and 12-3-7(D)3 (Procedure for Review and Decision for Amendments) of the Zoning Ordinance,
the Planning & Zoning Board may vote to recommend approval, approval with modifications, or disapproval
of the proposed variations. The City Council has final authority over the variations requested.
Audience member returned to the podium:
o Margaret Lesniak 1347 Perry
She asked:
if access to the parking lot will exist from the alley. Senior Planner Bye stated – there is
currently no access to the alley and that the petitioner would have to request access and
that it would be reviewed by the Public Works and Engineering Department.
A motion was made by Board Member Hofherr to recommend approval to City Council of the Map
Amendment (from C-3 to R-4) as presented. The motion was seconded and amended by Board Member
Catalano, adding a Condition that tenants be allowed to remain in the building until April 30, 2018. Board

Date: December 11, 2017
To: Michael G. Bartholomew, MCP, LEED AP, City Manager
From: Michael McMahon, Community and Economic Development Director
Johanna Bye, AICP, Senior Planner
Subject: Major Variations for 1233 Webster Lane, 17-094-V (3rd Ward) – Deferred Item
Issue: The petitioner is requesting Major Variations from Section 12-8-1(C) of the 1998 Des Plaines Zoning
Ordinance, as amended, to allow a detached garage of 791 square feet, when a maximum of 720 square feet
is permitted, and to allow an addition to an existing detached garage with a setback of 4’6”, when a 5’ setback
is required.
At the December 4, 2017 City Council meeting, this item was deferred to the December 18, 2017 City Council
Meeting. City staff was directed to conduct a building inspection of the garage addition to insure it is in
compliance with the Building Code. On December 11, 2017, Alex Franco, Building Official and Matt
Dziubanski, Building Inspector, conducted an inspection of the addition and concluded that the structure was
not in compliance with the current Building Code. However, Mr. Franco believes there are modifications that
can be made to the structure to bring it in to compliance.
Recommendations: Staff is requesting this item be deferred to an unspecified time in the future in order for
the Building Department to work with the homeowner to develop a plan to modify the structure and possibly
amend the variance request.
