Community and Economic Development Director Mike McMahon reviewed a
memorandum dated May 19, 2021.
The petitioner, T -Metro Square IL, LLC, has requested the following items: (i) a Final
Plat of Subdivision to consolidate Lot A in Metropolitan Square Phase 1 with a portion
of Lot E in Metropolitan Square Phase 1 A, resubdivide Lot A into Lots 1 and 3, and
designate a portion of said Lot E as Lot 2; and (ii) amend the existing Planned Unit

included in this request are 510 and 518 Metropolitan Way, 1440-1472 Market Street,
and 1506-1524 Market Street, which are all located within the C-5, Central Business

approval of Resolution R-89-03, which authorized the execution of the
"Redevelopment Agreement" between TDC & JFA Des Plaines, LLC and the City of
Des Plaines for the Downtown Redevelopment Project. On April 21, 2004, Ordinances
Page 10 of 13 06/07/21
Ordinance Z-14-04 and Z-15-04 were passed allowing a map amendment from C-3 to C-5 and

R-13-06 was approved on February 6, 2006 authorizing the execution of the first
amendment to the "Redevelopment Agreement' and granting the map amendment
request from C-3 to C-5 zoning.
The proposed requests constitute a major change to the existing PUD pursuant to
Section 12-3-5(G) requiring a PUD amendment. The subject properties included in this
request consist of 3.46 acres in size, which are currently improved with a grocery store,
two multi -unit shopping center buildings, a bank, and a multiple surface parking areas
as shown in the Plat of Survey. The subject properties abut Lee Street, Perry Street,
River Road, and Market Street and are currently accessed by multiple curb -cuts on
Perry Street and River Road. The proposal intends to provide a separate lot for the bank
property and designate a portion of Lot E, which includes the existing Metropolitan
Square multi -tenant pole sign, as Lot A. However, the petitioner does not propose to
change the size of the existing PUD.
The Planning and Zoning Board recommended (5-0) that the City Council approve the
request with the condition found in the staff report.
Staff recommended approval of Ordinance Z-38-21 with the condition that drawings
may have to be amended to comply with all applicable codes and regulations.

PUBLIC SAFETY — Alderman Oskerka, Chairman
Alderman Oskerka presented the purchase request for the Alexis Mini -Rescue
Apparatus.
RESCUE SQUAD
APPARATUS The Alexis Mini -Rescue Apparatus is a new rescue squad vehicle for the Fire
FROM ALEXIS Department. This unit would be the final piece of equipment to complete the planned
FIRE EOPT operational modifications in the Fire Department. This unit would be a multi-purpose
vehicle utilized for both EMS and Fire type responses. When staffed or cross staffed,
Resolution this unit would be the primary EMS assist vehicle in a larger geographical area to limit
R-63-21 the need for a fire suppression unit (Engine or Truck) to respond. After review of
industry equipment available, the Alexis 12' Response One Apparatus Body mounted
on a Ford F-550 chassis was chosen by Fire Department and Public Works Vehicle
Maintenance staff to best fit the City's needs. Alexis Fire Equipment, located in Alexis,
IL, is the equipment manufacturer and service center. During the equipment review
process of competitive companies, including Maintainer Custom Bodies, Fouts
Brothers, and Ward Apparatus, it was noted that these manufacturing locations are
located in Iowa, Georgia, and New York respectively which could result in reliability
issues with service and repair parts availability. The Alexis MiniRescue Apparatus unit
is available through HGAC Buy, which is a cooperative purchasing entity for
government and educational agencies of which the City is a member. Per HGAC Buy
Contract #FS12-19, this item can be purchased from Alexis Fire Equipment in the
amount of $223,430
Staff recommend the purchase of an Alexis Mini -Rescue Apparatus through HGAC
Buy Contract #FS12-19 from Alexis Fire Equipment.
Resident Eric Lee of the third ward disagrees with the purchase of the Alexis Mini -
Rescue Apparatus due to the operations being a cross -staffed unit and not a dedicated
24/7 staffed unit. Resident Eric Lee feels the eighth ward is not being represented in
this decision. He would like the City to reinstate the second truck company.
